  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: So it's rather obvious here, the primetime Sunday night game
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: made for television and made for overnight talk radio. So
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: our lead is from the swamplands of Jersey there, where
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: the Sunday night cap for a very offensive. Very offensive
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: day of football here, the Giants and Cowboys. But we
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: never get to see the Giants and Cowboys in Sunday
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: night football. So rare, so rare that NBC would put
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: that game in primetime. Just really odd. Anyway, if you
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: didn't watch it, perhaps not. You might have been burned out.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Maybe you lost your parlay or your big bet of
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: the day there, and you feel like a dope. I
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: had a very middling day myself there. A couple of
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: backdoor things broke my– yeah. The Washington, not that you
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: care about my bets, but the Washington-Philadelphia game, that late
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: touchdown by Washington hurt. Also, Atlanta and Pittsburgh, that was
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: a bit of a blow considering the way the game went.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: But more on that later. And so we watched the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Sunday night game, so you would not have to. It
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: is our good mitzvah of the day. And Jackson Dart,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: like he was back in college, slicing up some low-level
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: directional school, connecting with tight end Isaiah Likely, the former Raven,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: for not one but two, two touchdowns. And Devin Singletary
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: had another. Cam Scataboo ran for one. in his first
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: game back after that big injury there and really dressed
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: for success. Cam Scadaboo, if you saw what he was
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: wearing there as he walked into the game, like, wow. Well, anyway,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: the Giants opened up the season by rumbling and stumbling
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: past the Cowboys. 28-20, the final of the game that
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: did not seem that close in Sunday Night Football. John
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Harbaugh's New York debut right there. Free throw. turkey sandwiches
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: at any bodega in new york for john harbaugh now
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: you know how we roll in these parts it has
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: been the mantra of the show all these years the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: better story is in the losing locker room and that's
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: why we talk a lot about the cowboys i get
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: emails what do you talk so much about the cowboys
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: nobody even calls from dallas i don't understand well that's
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: true we don't get a lot of calls from dallas
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: but they're cowboy fans everywhere all right that's the first
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: thing and then second thing We love talking about losers.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And it's even more fun to talk about losers when
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: they're expecting to be good. Boy, that's a good story, right?
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: When a team's supposed to be good and then they're not, oh,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: that's awesome. So the Cowboys dropped another turd right there
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: in the Jersey Swamp land, and that is a good
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: jumping-off point. Let us discuss the question. How do you
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: describe Brian Schottenheimer's Cowboys defense? Let's start with the Cowboys
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: defense here because I think that's the story. And, yeah,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: we'll do that. So we've got Toby Keith. We've got
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: rapping as well. And if that was not enough, Martha Stewart.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Three things that have never been put together. And we're
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: going to do that, and we are going to strong-arm that.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: the microphones the powerful microphones the bully pulpit here of
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: fox sports radio so we begin with this again the
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: question how do you describe brian schottenheimer's cowboys defense so
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the cowboys defense is not rebuilt it's re-airing last season
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: with new commercials they just a new commercial now we
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: used to have these things called reruns and then people
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: realize well everything's on demand you really needed reruns for
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the most part here uh just like Like a podcast.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: This show is saved. You can replay it. It's like
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: a re-airing. Whenever you want, right? Eventually, this will become
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: a podcast. But Dallas spent all off-season, yet again, yet again,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: changing the ingredients and somehow... The meatloaf appears to still
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: taste like a Goodyear tire with a little extra salt
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: and some pepper. Same factory settings for the Cowboys. Yeah,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Vaughn Miller's a big name. I know he's at the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: end of his career, but Vaughn Miller brought him in.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: You know, local guy from Texas comes back to play
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. They hired this hotshot defensive coordinator from
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: the Eagles, Christian Parker. Oh, young savant, the Sean McVay
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: of defense, Christian Parker. And that performance, yet first opportunity,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: the performance for the Cowboys defense. It was a Toby
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Keith song, Wacky Tabacky, the way they played their third
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: and anything against Dallas. That turned out to be a
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: rewards program for the opposing quarterback, in this case Jackson Dart,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: who completed overall 79% of his passes. There should be
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: a tribunal on the Dallas Cowboys defense. Jackson Dart went
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: out there and shoved it down your throat. 79% completion percentage,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: three touchdowns, a partridge in a pear tree. The Giants
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: also ran for 165 yards, held the ball for nearly
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: 37 minutes. Now, I didn't play in the NFL. I'm
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: told that's good. I'm told that's good. And also, let's
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: not forget the generosity of Dallas. They handed over 10
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: penalties for 114 yards. The Giants gained 114 yards on
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the kindness of the Cowboys defense that had the discipline,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: watching this game, the discipline of a kindergarten class after
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: somebody handed out the pixie sticks. Well, there's no discipline.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: There's none. Now, did I have the Cowboys? Yeah. Did
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I expect the Cowboys to play better? Yeah. Do I
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: look like a donkey? Yeah, I look like a donkey.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Hopefully I don't smell like one. The Cowboys here. I mean,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: how many times do I come on here? And usually
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys would get off to a decent start before
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: they start imploding. And the Giants are one of those
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: weird teams. Are they a good team? Have they crossed
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the Rubicon? We're not sure yet. They're kind of in
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: that gray area where they could be good. We've seen
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of bad football from the Giants over the years. Anyway,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: so listen, Brian Schottenheimer, the coach, should be answering. After
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: that performance, he should be answering questions under oath. Okay,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: under oath because somebody needs to explain where the F
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the coaching went. Like you're either coaching the undisciplined football
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: or you're just allowing it to happen. Either way, you're porked. OK,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: so this is the Cowboys eternal scam. And they've been
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: doing it my entire time in sports radio. Now, believe
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: it or not, I actually got it so long ago.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: The Cowboys were still winning championships. But for the most part.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: All right. This is the scam. The names change forever.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: There's new optimism, unbridled optimism for the Dallas Cowboys. And
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: then the same malpractice. In this case, defensive malpractice. And
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: the Cowboy fan, yet again, has now entered what we
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: call the age of reason, which is when the regular
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: season begins. The annual September ritual that the brochure that
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Jerry Jones showed you The brochure looks a lot better
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: than the actual resort product. Understand? All right. Now, meanwhile,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: on the offensive side for Jerry Jones' team, because this
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: is also a great story. We talk about every year
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: it's the eternal scam, the optimism, the hype, and there's
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: no one better. The Cowboys are the most valuable franchise,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: not only in America, but in the world. They have.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: What they need in terms of creating buzz. So the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Dak Prescott quote came to mind. I don't know if
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: you thought about it when I was watching this game
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: and I was thinking about my place in the universe
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: and I'm watching the Cowboys really scuff it up, really
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: scuff it up. And I was going back to training camp.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: And you remember the Dak Prescott quote because I flashed
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: into my head. So we're going to frame it as
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: a question. Okay, we're going to frame it as a question.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: So the question, Dak Prescott nicknamed the 2026 Cowboys offense GOTTI, G-O-T-I,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: as in greatest offense there is. All right. Did Dallas
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: back that talk from Dak Prescott up on the field?
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: So I'm going to answer this. I'm going to play
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: the Wheel of Fortune. Play the Wheel of Fortune. So
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I would like an N, and can I buy a vowel? Okay, good.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I would like to buy an O. Let's put them together. No. No, no, no, no. Gotti,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: more like gotta do better. Dak out there, this offseason,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: you know, Dak, he's usually pretty boring. And during training camp,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: randomly Dak talked like Jay-Z and played like the guy
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: handing out the mixtapes outside. I don't think they do
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: that anymore. Back in the day, they'd go, free, free.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: And then if you take it, they'd hit you up
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: for money. That's their hustle. But Dak Prescott was out
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: there rapping bars for the Dallas offense there. The performance
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: was pure rap, R-A-P, as in replacement level average performer.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: All right? Replacement level average performer. That's it. And by
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the way, replacement level conjoined word. That's how it works.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Just work with me. Just work with me. Thank you. Unfortunately, listen,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: the album, this album by Dak Prescott went absolutely platinum
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: in that game on Sunday Night Football. And to think,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: you've got CeeDee Lamb on one side. You've got George
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Pickens on the other. A couple of thermonuclear missiles as
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: wide receivers. And somehow, someway, they got turned into possession receivers.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Possession receivers. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens are supposed to
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: be fireworks, and they played like wet sparklers. Prescott averaged
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: 5.1 yards per pass per five again got it got
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: it got it got it greatest offense there is is
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: that the great 5.1 yards per pass despite having all
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the horsepower they need one of those little blue pills
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: they came up limp in dallas and the offense lacked
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: any real razzle dazzle making this less greatest offense there
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: is and more get-off-the-internet type offense, like stay away from
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: social media. And Dak completed under 60% of his passes
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: to those two guys. Less than 60%. They combined, if
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: you put side-by-side, Lamb and Pickens for a pathetic 75
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: yards total. Like, what are we doing here? What are
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: we doing? This is why people laugh at the Cowboys.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Nobody celebrates themselves harder before accomplishing less. Here is shoddy,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: by the way. What a shoddy performance by Brian Schottenheimer's team.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: And he's about to play the blame game. Let's take
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: a listen.
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: You know, one of the things, not excuse, guys, we
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: did not play well. But you got young players.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: And a young player closes in.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: Jackson Dart boots and gets outside. We don't push three
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: different times to the flat route. Excuse my language. You know, like,
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: those are going to happen. And we have to coach
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: the young players better. But when you play young players,
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: it's part of the deal.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: I like how he said no excuses. Then what word
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: did he use? That's right. He used but, capital B.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: That was the pivot. That was the pivot point. That's
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: where he started rolling off excuses. Play it again. Listen,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: you can hear him. He always said, oh, no excuses.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: And then he dropped a but in there, and then
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: it was nothing but excuses. And you could tell he's
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: making excuses because he got upset and then said the
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: F word. Take a listen.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: You know, one of the things, not excuse, guys.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: We did not play well.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: But you got young players. And young player closes in
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: Jackson Dart boots and gets outside. We don't push three
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: different times to the flat route. Excuse my language.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Fly route.
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah. All right. There you go. All right.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Boy, it's good to be back talking football here. I
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: love these losers. I love losers. I love talking about losers.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I get paid to talk about losers. All right, so
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: last word. Let's talk about winners for a second. Let's
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: change it up a little bit. I like losers. I
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: love losers. That's AI. So here's the question. What is
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: your word? I love words. What is your word for
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: John Harbaugh's first real game as Giants coach? So my
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: word for John Harbaugh's Giants debut, tantalizing, capital T, tantalizing.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Small sample size, obviously, one game, but we have a
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: talk show to do right now. The arrow is pointing
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: straight up. And as a part of Americana from many
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: years ago, before my time even, Mark Twain would say,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: There's gold in them, their hills. There's gold in them,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: their hills. And Harbaugh did not rebuild the New York overnight. Obviously,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: he's not going to sit here and say that. However,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: for the first time in forever, you can see something
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: that has a blueprint that can last for more than
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: a couple of games. Nobody ever bought into Daniel Jones.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: That guy blows. And they've had some other turds that
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: played for the Giants over the years and some really
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: incompetent coaches. But this guy's like a grown-up in the room.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: The Giants have gone from football purgatory to football promising,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: which is not a bad first step. I am Benny
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Brightside on the Giants, which concerns me because their next
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: game is against the Rams. I think I'll be at
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: that game watching them in person a week from Monday here.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: or next Monday night, not obviously today, but the next
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Monday night. So this was a direct copy. What I
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: saw from John Harbaugh was the Baltimore playbook. John basically
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: packed up the Martha Stewart cookbook when he left the Ravens,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: and the recipe is physicality, smash mouth, got a little
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: bass in their voice now. They're no longer squeaking. No
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: longer squeaking. and forcing the Cowboys, a high-powered offense, to
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: eat a casserole of crow. That doesn't seem very tasty,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: a casserole of crow. Was it perfect? Absolutely not. Far
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: from it. The Giants had nine penalties. They had four fumbles.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: They only lost one of them. So Lady Luck was
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: on their side. Regardless, Jackson Dart, I was impressed. I
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: hate to say that. You know I don't like to
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: praise anyone, but Jackson Dart really did impress me. How
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: much of that was the Cowboys defense, but he was
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: out there performing surgery. Like he was Drew Brees carving up,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: carving up. the Dallas defense and then the Giants defense themselves,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: muting CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. So listen, the Giants
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: obviously did not hire John Harbaugh to win news conferences
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: in September. And he's made some headlines here. Last week,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: there was the not playing along with the injuries and
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: the New York writers and all that, which went viral
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: and which was cool. But the Giants obviously hired him.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: to change the DNA because they have bad DNA there.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: A lot of medical problems for the Giants. And you
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: could see that mutation starting. You could kind of tell
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: there's something going on. And I'm never wrong about these things.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: I'm never wrong. You'd see that there's a little bit
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: of a turn there. And that division is winnable. The
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Eagles are not as good as they've been. Washington's still...
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: a mess, and the Cowboys appear to be the same
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: old Cowboys. So the opportunity is there for the Giants.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Will they take advantage of it? We'll see as the
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: season plays out. But they got a shot. The Rams
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: have their own issues. They just lost. We'll talk more
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: about this later. But Miles Garrett is out now for
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: the next month at least. And so the Rams, who
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: looked like they were weakened at Bernie's in Australia, and
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: now they come back. They'll play the Giants next week.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: So that'll be a more intriguing matchup.

• 17:52
  Speaker 1: All right, our lead this hour, though, from the Windy
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: City via Charlotte. That's where the Bears were, the traveling
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: roadshow for the Chicago football team. Did you see any
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: of this game? This was not a high-profile matchup. Chicago
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: was a slight favorite, slight favorite in this game on
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the road. <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: But jeebers. All right, so Ben Johnson, the very arrogant
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: head coach of the Chicago football team, he set an
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: outrageous target. You might remember we talked about this on
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the show and talked about that winning a Super Bowl,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: that's not enough for Ben Johnson. He wants the Bears
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: to produce the highest scoring offense in NFL history. That
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: record currently held by the Peyton Manning team. broncos back
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: in the day now chicago how did they start they
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: gave themselves enough space where they could have a stinker
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: or two they scored so many points in the first
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: game uh if you didn't see it they scored not
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: one not two not three not four not five not
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: six not seven eight touchdowns the chicago football team scored
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: eight touchdowns Holy Rex Grossman, Batman. Eight touchdowns. 59 points.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: 59 points. They win 59-37 over the woe-be-gone Carolina football team.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: I was hoping I'd hear from Gunner. I don't know.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Maybe his phone stopped working. Our buddy Gunner, the big
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Carolina fan. Where you at, Gunner? Defend your boys.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: No?
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: 59-37. That sounds like a lot. That is the most
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: points we are told. The most points in a season
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: opener in Bears history. And is tied for this season.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: second most ever by an nfl team in week one
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the bears how many yards do they have 552 total
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: yards 291 on the ground got bears this is crazy
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: This is like playing on Madden on the rookie level. And,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: my God, they scored two touchdowns in every quarter. Was
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Carolina even trying? Let's hear from Dave Canales, the head
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: coach there, not for long, if he keeps coaching like this,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: of the Carolina Panthers. Can you explain... Mr. Coach, how
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: your team practiced all offseason, prepared for this game, and
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: gave up 552 total yards and 59 points. What do
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: you have to say for yourself, Coach?
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: It was an.
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: Incredible day by the Bears, and again, I can't wait
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: to watch the film so I can get to the
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: heart of what that was. What I do know is
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: 17 points off turnovers doesn't equal 59 points, and we
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: could have helped that. We could have not extended drives
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: with penalties. There were some things that we gave a
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: really good offense more opportunities.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: They don't need any more opportunities. They were creating their.
• 21:09
  Speaker 6: Own, and that's something that collectively we have to make
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: sure we take care of.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, my new favorite answer, every single coach. Got to
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: watch the tape. Haven't watched the tape yet. Got to
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: watch the tape. When I get a call from my boss,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: when Scott calls me and says, hey, Mallory, I got
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: to talk to you about something you said last night.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: I haven't listened to the show. I haven't listened to
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: the tape. Let me listen to the tape and I'll
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: get back to you. It's the greatest diversion. I got
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: to watch the tape. I got to listen to the tape. Yeah, yeah,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: that's it. Leave me alone. Of course, then the next
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: day you say, well, we've moved on. We've moved on.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: We don't want to talk about that game anymore. The
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: story here, though, is the Chicago Bears, clearly. They were
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: so overwhelming in this performance. It's a good jumping off point.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question. Is the Ben Johnson-coached Bears'
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: 59-point volcanic eruption the birth of an offensive juggernaut? or
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: just Carolina making everyone look like the 99 Rams, the
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: greatest show on turf. So I've got Muhammad Ali, airlifted,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: and Paris Baguette. And we will combine all of these
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: things together, and we are going to go down. A
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: blind alley is where we're going to go. All right,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: so number one. Number one. One, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: All right, this performance by the Bears. was a, I
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: call it a Las Vegas showgirl performance. Feathers, sequins, and
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: absolutely no subtlety. No subtlety. By the way, there's only
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: like two places that have showgirls in Vegas anymore. They're
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: pretty much extinct. Anyway, look, Ben Johnson, and I like it.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to him. Ben Johnson came out,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: talked like Muhammad Ali back in the day, all summer.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: And then the Bears showed up and showed out. They
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: showed up. They were throwing punches, coming out, moonwalking while
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: they did their thing. They nuked Carolina, a cardboard village
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: of a defense for the Carolina football team. So good
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: for them. That was orgasmic for my friend's tree in Chicago, Yafimi,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: all the Bears fans. The Bears, who like to show.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: But 59 points. The Bears didn't just dip their toe
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: into the season. They cannonballed into a pool. And they cannonballed.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: They were so fat, they emptied the pool. It's like
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Van Halen with the amps turned up to 11. Turned
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: it all the way up. Somewhere, George Hallis is rolling
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: over in his grave, asking what happened to three yards
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: in a cloud of dust. Because it wasn't three yards.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: The Bears' offense was insane. After treating the end zone
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: like a private property for decades... At least on this day,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Chicago running an Airbnb, baby. Man. So the Bears used
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: to be three yards cloud of dust. That was the
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: way Chicago operated for many, many years. The Bears offense,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: forget three yards. How about seven and a half yards?
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: That's how many yards the Bears average per carry. per
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: carry obviously they had some massive run a 60 yard
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: run here a 29 yard scamper there a 32 yard
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: sprint they have 7.5 yards per carry per carry this
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: is embarrassing i mean this are you even trying if
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: you're the panthers uh it's like running an airbnb now
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: chicago offensively and so When Ben Johnson said they wanted
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: the scoring record, we laughed. We always laugh. We're not
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: laughing now, even if Carolina's coaches... If I was coaching Carolina,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I'd have those guys run gassers until October. They were
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: so bad defensively. But it is only week one, and
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: week one is where September Hall of Fame busts are made. So...
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: The problem the Bears are going to have is the
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: same old problem every team that plays outdoors in the
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: cold weather is going to have. At some point, you're
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: going to have to play a bunch of sloppy games
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: in bad weather. That's just the way it is. Bears
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: play at Soldier Field until they move off to Indiana,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: and they're going to be playing at least a couple
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: of cold weather games. Now, fortunately, I don't have to
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: worry about Minnesota or Detroit, but you have Green Bay. Outdoors,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: cold weather, so I haven't looked at the Bears' schedule
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: that far ahead. But, man, that was a mushroom cloud.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: And I don't believe they passed any protective goggles out
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: to anyone. Now, someone that should have passed something out
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: would be the team that plays in Nashville. Page two here.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: Robert Sala. Robert Sala. It's going to be different. Yep, yep. Mr. Optimism. Mr. Rah-Rah.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Robert Sala. Made his Titans regular season debut. And how
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: did that go? Tennessee went out and lost by a
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: couple of scores to Robert Sala's former team. The J-E-T-S suck, suck, suck.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: So Robert Sala opens his tenure with a capital F.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: frustration performance there so quarterback cam ward looking like he
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: needed to be working at some kind of montgomery ward
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: that's an old store back in the day how bad
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: was cam ward had just just a terrible performance and
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: the numbers were even skewed because he put up some
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: of those numbers in the fourth quarter which was a
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: theme here of guys stinking it up deshaun watson did
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: the same thing they were terrible for three quarters That
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: only counts if you win, because Arch Manning, I was
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: watching the Ohio State-Texas game over the weekend, and Arch
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Manning sucked for three quarters, and then everyone's kissing his
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: bootay because of what happened in the fourth quarter with
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: an assist by the Buckeyes of Ohio State. That's a
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: different story, but there's a lot of that going on
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: where guys put up terrible numbers for three quarters, and
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: then in the fourth quarter, they get it done. Robert
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Salvo acknowledged the frustration. He refused, though, to have a
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: temper tantrum with It didn't really work for our purposes.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: We would have loved a nice tantrum. A conniption fit
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: by Robert Sala would have been great. And what do
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: you think Robert Sala said? Ding, ding, ding, ding. Yes,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: he said, got to watch the tape. Robert Sala, got
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: to watch the tape. He said he'll make rational, educated
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: football decisions. That'll be a first. Adding that he could
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: throw podiums around. Oh, we have some.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Well, rather than me just kind of throw it together.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Here's Robert Sala, the new coach. You excited there? My
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: friends in Nashville. You excited?
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah. No.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: You get used to playing football. You play. You play.
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: You play. You watch the tape. You learn. You practice.
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: Then you get better from it. Teams have. Teams have
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: gotten better during the season. Teams have started slow, finished fast.
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: Teams have started fast, finished slow. And our intent is
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: to finish as fast as we possibly can. And like
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: I said, we'll go back to this. We'll watch it all.
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: We'll grow from it and hopefully put on a better
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: performance next week.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Well, it's hard to be much worse. It's hard to
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: be much worse. All right, question. How would you grade
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Robert Sala's debut as Tennessee Titans coach there? So we
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: went to the Malheur report card. Now, I am not
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: going to give Robert Sala an F. I am not.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: On the Malheur report card, Robert Sala gets a DV.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: What is a DV? That is a deja vu situation.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Not the showgirls, not the strip club. Well, it is
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: kind of a strip club. New uniform, new logo, new city,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: and that is a very similar product to That Robert
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Sala put out in the field. That's a Robert Sala
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: coach football team right there. When he's a head coach,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: that's the product you're going to get. Covered in mold.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Robert Sala was hired, in theory, to change the culture
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: in Tennessee. And on the opening day performance, it looked like... somebody,
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure who did this, had airlifted one of
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: his old Jets games straight into Nashville. And they just
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: did some AI stuff and they moved around the logo
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: and the colors and all that. The Titans didn't merely
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: lose 23-10. They were out-gained. 367 yards to 195 they
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: squeezed out a pathetic 11 first downs possessed the football
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: for barely 21 minutes against the jets the jets this
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: was not the sack exchange from back 40 years ago
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: the jets sloppy football check that box tennessee started with
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: a kickoff, I believe, out of bounds. They burned early timeout.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: They didn't know what they were doing. They had too
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: many people on the field. They coughed up a kickoff return.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: It was a mess. And Robert Sala can talk about
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: watching the tape and making rational, educated football decisions. However...
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: We have seen this movie before. Robert Sala as a
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: head coach, his head coaching career is basically control C,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: control V. That's it. The theater may have changed. Now
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: they're instead of Broadway, it's the Grand Ole Opry. The show,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: the lousy product did not. And Tennessee didn't hire a
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: turnaround specialist. Imagine the bull crap he must have sold
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: those idiot ownership people in Tennessee to get this job.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: They hired a rerun specialist. They wanted a turnaround specialist.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: Robert's kind of like Starbucks of NFL coaches. You can
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: find him in any city and know exactly what you're
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: going to get. Burnt coffee, in this case. All right,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: last word. We got to chat for a second about
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: the former number one overall pick a couple years back
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: here in the NFL draft. The Cam Show. How's that
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: working out? Cam Ward. Cam, Cam, Cam, Cam, Cam, Cam, Cam.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: They'd be better off with an actual camera at quarterback
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: at this point. So what direction are things looking here
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: for Titans quarterback Cam Ward? How's that all working out?
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: So this is where this game was where you would
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: think Cam Ward would come out and say, here I
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: am marking your territory. I'm announcing my arrival. If that
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: is Cam Ward and Tennessee's idea of a soft launch,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: I would really hate to see a hard launch. So
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: much for the much ballyhooed pairing of Cam Ward with
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: the new offensive coordinator, Brian Dayball. Everybody spent much of
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: the offseason selling the fact that Cam Ward was about
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: to go to the moon, to the moon, to the moon,
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: to the moon, to the moon. With Brian Dayball's expertise...
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: It's going to be footballs, peanut butter, and jelly. Well,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: we got our first look at this peanut butter and jelly.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: It turns out there was no peanut butter. There was
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: no jelly. It was a little toothpaste and then some
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: orange juice. And that was together. And this was supposed
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: to be a, again, soft launch, right? Soft launch and
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: all that. And it turned out, instead of going to
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Paris Baguette and ordering a cream puff, which is what
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: the Jets are, instead, Cam Ward ordered Got a Jets
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: defense that instead of having that sweet, creamy pastry filling
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: turned into a jawbreaker. It's like biting on a hockey puck.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: So the optimism tank right now, if you look at
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: that optimism tank, it's on fumes. In fact, it's not
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: just on fumes. Some thug came over and stole the
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: catalytic converter. So the optimism tank is not working. It's
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: it's on fumes and it does not have the catalytic converter.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: which seems to be a problem with the product. So
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: over three quarters of this game, against the Jets, Cam
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Ward put up a dismal 59.5 quarterback rating, and they
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: were rhythmically chanting and booing and the whole thing, and
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: Cam Ward said he understood the hostility, claiming fans who pay,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: they want to see a show. It's all about the show.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: And they did. They wanted to see a show. Unfortunately,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: they got community theater is what they got. That's what
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: they got. They got Shakespeare by a bunch of second
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: graders is what they got. That's what the Titans played like,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: a bunch of second graders. You could not have had
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: a bigger you-know-what to the balls than that performance for
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Maller
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Show weekdays at 2 a.m. Eastern, 11 p.m. Pacific.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: It's Maller. How about that? To the third degree.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: This is when Big Ben gets grilled.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Ball loop.
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: Now, Ben, you like to use the phrase coaching malpractice.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Yes. Yes, I do like that.
• 34:44
  Speaker 7: Well, that's what several people were saying about Ryan Day
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: over the weekend for his decision to not allow the
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: Longhorns to score a quick touchdown to give the Buckeyes
• 34:53
  Speaker 7: time to set up a game winning field goal. Ben,
• 34:55
  Speaker 7: do you think that was coaching malpractice?
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: I was watching the game and I just assumed that
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: Ohio State was going to allow Texas to score. You
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: know what it is? The word I will use is hubris.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Like Ohio, Ryan Day was so arrogant. He was so
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: convinced that his defense, he bet on his defense. How'd
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: that work out, Coop? Not good. Not good. I think
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: the move would have been to let him score. I
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: was telling my buddy, I was watching the game with
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: my gambling buddy. I said, let him score. Didn't do it. Next.
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: Speaking of coaches under fire, people are saying that Dan
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: Lanning has done the least with the most over his
• 35:27
  Speaker 7: time in Oregon. They had a shocking loss over the weekend. Ben,
• 35:31
  Speaker 7: do you think he makes it to the end of
• 35:32
  Speaker 7: the season? Yeah, he will, but the people at Nike
• 35:36
