• 0:44
  Speaker 2: games over the last two years he saved one nine

• 1:14
  Speaker 2: on nine three point three KJRFM cracking right now, sitting
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: in first place in the Pacific. Unbelievable. But the West
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: is crazy. It's all backed up. We'll try to get
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: to a daily power play maybe a little bit later.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: On two thirty. Sounds pulled it off yesterday, first round
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: of the MLS three game matchup with Minnesota. They survive,

  Speaker 2: week back in Minnesota, deciding Game three. Jordan Morris one
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: of the goals as well for the Sounders. Let's go,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: way we go? That appears to be it pedals, pencils down,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: says the NFL. They just tweeted. I like that. NFL
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: pencils down, pencils down? God? Do you remember teas now? Yeah?
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know how kids take the
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: SATs anymore? Do they do it? Is it a number
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: two lead pencil and all that?
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: That's a really good question, like a scantron.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: I don't even know. I don't think my son didn't
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: even take an it SAT. He didn't, No, but he
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: was a COVID kid.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Oh everything changed during that year.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so there was all kinds of yeah, And I
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: think they're starting to bring SATs or acts back, but
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know if they're electronic. I don't know how
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: they do those things. So I don't know if it's
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: the number two led pencil, you still do that. So
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: that so, whoever, the NFL probably is a little bit older,
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: probably more our age, like you're telling you to put pencils,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: pencils out.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: I still like I saw that.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I honestly got a little shiver down my spine when
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I saw that little tweet.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: I like that nostalgia.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Hey, it's a cracking ticket Tuesday here on Sports Radio
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: ninety three point three KJRFM. That's right, we're giving away
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: tickets all day, every hour on ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Tenth caller. When you hear the sounder play, we'll get
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: a pair of tickets. How about this a Saturday night
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: game against the San Jose Sharks November fifteenth. Now MJ
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: pointing this out, it is a good point. It's San
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Jose who's here tomorrow. But then we play, we cracking
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: play on the fifteenth against San Jose again. So the
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: two home games against San Jose happened within two weeks
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: of each other, less than two weeks of each other.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: But it is a Saturday night game, Saturday, the fifteenth
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: of November, San Jose Sharks. When you hear that, be
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the tenth callar two O six two A six ninety five,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: ninety five to get those tickets to sound, not now,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: not now in the year he sound, yes, yes, yes,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: So there you go. That's coming up on the fifteenth.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: MacLean Celebrini, great young star. We saw the number one
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: overall pick in twenty twenty three last night Connor Badard,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: who every bit looks that part. And then we will
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: see the number one pick from twenty twenty four. Last year.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: He wasn't Rookie of the Year probably I don't know
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: he should have been, but boy he's having a heck
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: of a second year. Macklean Celebrini. That's coming up on
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: the fifteenth, so listen for that as well. We're gonna
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: get to some stuff with Hugh Millen in a moment
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: because I thought he was really good with Mark today
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: and no need for us to call Hugh and have
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: him repeat everything he said with MJ and the Midday.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: But I was listening and he has the breakdown of
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Rashid Shaheed and we'll get to that in a second,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: in just a couple moments, so stand by for that.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: John Lenn's going to join us at two o'clock. That'll
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: kind of give us our time at two today to
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: really kind of go through the trade deadline. Who helped themselves,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: especially in the NFC, if we're being honest, If I'm
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: being honest, I read that at AFC. I'm not really
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: that concerned about don't worry about that. I worry about
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: the NFC. And we'll see. I think Seattle got a
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: little bit better. Did they get enough better? Did they
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: get enough better for what they gave up? I guess
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: time will tell. It feels like it was a lot
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: like it feels like it was a big give up
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: for those two draft picks. We'll tell you what I
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: think they have left. Although it's like trying to find
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: a needle in the haystack to exactly get where they're
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: at in terms of draft picks. But I believe they
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: only have five for next year.
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: You know they'll turn that into more, you would assume.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: So that's a John Schneier special.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: That's a John Schneider specialty. So I don't I don't
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: necessarily worry about how many they have right now. I do.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I think we all would say, is it what you
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: did trade away? Is is the return of value? Time
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: will tell. On the surface, it feels like they gave
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: up a little bit too much for this player. But
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: we'll let Hugh tell you about that in just a
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: couple of seconds. Our kugs are going to join us,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: coming up at one twenty or one thirty today. Sorry,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: we'll talk to MK and Alex. I'm pissed off, to
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: be honest with you, I am not happy in any way,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: shape or form about what happened, as are many of
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: us last week.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: I'm just Rosie.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you had to be there for it. That's oh yeah,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: that was Paul wolf like offensive performance. Sorry. I know
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: people hate that. I know it gets people upset, but
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: that's still fair. That's what it was. It was. Kevin
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Lapena is your quarterback, Paul Wolfe's the coach, and it
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: just that's what it looked like it was that bad.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: And then some on Saturday against which is a bummer
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: because the defense was fantastic and the defense has given
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: you a chance to win most games this season, the
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: exception being the Washington game. The Huskies kind of boat
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: raced you defensively in the fourth quarter. There was some
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: things to that. I get it, But your defense gives
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: you a chance most of the time to win. Your
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: offense is awful. The quarterback is not good right now.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: It's just so we'll get make break, explain why he's
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: he's gonna you know, he's usually the guy that defends
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: the quarterback or the offense or the offensive coordinators, so he.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Can give me one.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what he'll do.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: The defense, like by the way they've had they have
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: a lot of depth when it comes to the defensive
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: line specifically. Yeah, when it comes to numbers, they have
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: been out a lot of players, a.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Lot of players.
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: They're still playing well and really really playing well.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're really playing well. So the rest of it.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So anyway, I guess I need to kind of take
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: a step back sometimes and just say, hey, listen, I've
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: I've been the one all year that said this is
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: the year. That doesn't matter. You're just trying to get
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: ready for next year when you're back into a conference.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: But watching what happened Saturday was that was embarrassing on
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: a lot of levels. Okay, the let's get to the
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: trade deadline, and I think, you know, one of the
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: things that we were looking to see if they would
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: do is would they go out and would they make
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: a move? Would they do something in terms of the
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: offensive line. It doesn't appear that they did that. I
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: think if we're being I think, if we're being I
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: guess honest, to go out and get a player that
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: you kind of already are are seemingly good. Hell, you
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: have a potential MVP at that cat at that part
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: right now with Rashid sh Heed, well with with JSN.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: But to go get Rashid she Heed, I think it
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: caught a lot of us by surprise. Now does that
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: say there's something wrong with Cooper cup that's deeper? Did
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: they really are they? Because it as a two Tory
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Horton looked okay the other day, right I was wondering,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I guess this is the good news is they didn't
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: go out and go after a middle linebacker, So hopefully
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: that means Ernest Jones is okay. You know, Rashid Shihed
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: this season has forty four catches for ninety nine two touchdowns,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: just under five hundred yards at fourhundred and ninety nine.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: As I mentioned on the season, averaging eleven yards per reception.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Is in his career, he's averaged fifteen about fifteen fourteen
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: point nine fifteen yards per catch. Thought to be a speedster,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: But is he all right? Is he a speedster? So
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Hugh Millan on earlier on in the eleven o'clock hour
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: with our guy MJ in the midday, and you know there,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: I think this is a perfect breakdown, and MJ was
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: asking him what he thought of the trade, Like.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: It good move, bad move or just a meh move?
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: What do you think?
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: Probably closer to the ladder? From my perspective, since the
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: trade went down, I have looked at all sixty six
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: of the targeted plays to to Shaheed from this season.
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: A couple things. First of all, just let's just go bio.
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: He's five to ten and five eighths at the combine
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: one hundred and eighty five pounds. Now I think he's
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: added weight. He looks, he looks thicker. I think he
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: looks closer to you know, certainly north of one ninety
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: one ninety five is so he's that there's no forty
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: time on him. So I'm just going off with the
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: speed that I see on the tape. He turned twenty
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: seven on August thirty first of this year. He's in
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: his fourth year now. As as for you know, his profile,
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: I would say, given what I just said about is
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: his size and thirty one inch arms and everything, I
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: would project him. Normally those type of guys are slot receivers.
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: But this year he's got one hundred and eighty snaps
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: in the slot and two hundred and forty six out wide,
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: which are mostly distributed left and right. The year before,
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: when Clint Kubiak was the offensive coordinator at the Saints,
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: again see he'd had seventy snaps in the slot, two
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: hundred and fourteen out wide, and then the catches from
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: this year and last year are more or less commensurate
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: with those proportions. So so he has been more of
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: an outside receiver, both in terms of snaps and his catches.
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: In looking at him, I think there's a there's a
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: the quickness with his feet. He's got a sewing machine
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: quality to his feet at some of the top of
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: his brakes. I think his quickness now, he's got pump
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: returning kickoff return. I haven't really delved into that, but
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: just looking at the numbers. So he's got he's got
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: return quality aspects to his to his game. And you know,
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: they they run bubble screens to him, they run the
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: rocket sweeps to him, and.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: What have you.
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: I think he's good, not elite in that regard as
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: an outside receiver. I think his long speed now, he
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: had a he had an eighty seven yard or on
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: a high corner route against the Raiders, I believe, but
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: but perfect dome eighty seven yard touchdown and I'm waiting
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: for I'm just kind of watching his long speed, who's
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: catching up to him and what have you?
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: And I liked it. I thought it was good long speed.
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: His quickness I think is is again a good not elite.
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: His toughness, Uh, they run a lot of slant routes. Uh,
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: you know, I think I think there's times I don't.
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: I don't think he's an elite a contested ball guy,
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: but he did show on a number of snaps some
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: toughness where you know, I think with the quarterbacking that
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: the Saints have had. Uh, there there's some late balls
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: in there. There's some dirted balls, so don't look at
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: the catch rate. But there's times where where you had
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: Spencer Rattler throw the ball in late. One of them
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: was against the Seahawks Tyocotta. He took he's taking some
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: blows going over the middle, and I would say I
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: would give him a good report in that regard. So
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: I I'm I'm a little bit surprised. I did not
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: like hearing that it was a fourth and fifth round.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: I know, I didn't like that either. Man two of.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Them, Yeah, I went.
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: You know, I'm I was actually studying the and and
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: the tape that I'm watching is is the inner cut.
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: It's the same stuff that the Seahawks watches, the coaches
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: copy from the NFL beat. And so I'm watching on
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: on one screen, I'm looking at the all twenty two,
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: the sideline copy. At the other end, I'm watching the
• 12:51
  Speaker 6: end zone copy. So I'm you know, I'm I'm ascertaining
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: these these observations based on those tapes. And and as
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: I'm watching, you know, the news breaks that it's a
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: fourth and fifth and and.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: That kind of sary you a little bit? You it
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: did for me?
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: I lie, yeah, I mean you know, I I spend
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: a lot of time studying the draft in my years
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: at kJ R, and so I think I'm gonna like
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: it the pick this Sunday. I don't think I'm gonna
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: like the pick in the third week of April, if
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: that makes sense. So he better do something between.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: Now and the end of the year.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: Well, by the way, I love it.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I love it. I don't.
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: You don't like how I said that?
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: No, I like what you said there. He doesn't have
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: to prove anything to me.
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: Well, you don't have to, but but for me as
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: a fan, I think there's gonna have to be, you know,
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: some good production, some real good production before I'm gonna
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: be happy about giving up the fourth and a fifth
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: round or form.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And just the thing, I believe this to be
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: the case that if we look and see, you know
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: what what left on the table for the draft next season,
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: the sex of a first round, second round, third round.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: So day one they'll have one. Day two they'd have
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: two picks, a second and a third, and Day three
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: the draft. Right now, I believe just two sixth round picks.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Two picks on day three. That won't stay the same.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: That will definitely not stay the same because it's John Schneider.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: He cannot There's no way he'll go into day three
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: with just two picks and waiting until the sixth round,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: which would mean you wouldn't pick until god win, three o'clock.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: This is two o'clock, one o'clock, and we'll all be there.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: I guess I won't be I won't be there at
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: nine o'clock in the morning. They ain't gonna pick tell then,
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: But that said the uh, but that's that's what they
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: are right now. Here's the thing with the production wise,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: and this is kind of an interesting thing. And I
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: don't know if if this was a concern. When you
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: have the player that leads the NFL in receiving yards
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: in JSN but your number two, guy Cooper Cup, is
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: sixty fifth in the NFL and receiving yards, he's eighty
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: six this Cooper Cup. In targets, he's eighty sixth in receptions.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: So those numbers, you have a one and then you
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: have a massive drop off. Is Rashid Shaheed gonna help
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: you in that regard? Maybe I'm not saying it's Cooper
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Cup's problem or fault, but it's not like they have,
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: at least statistically, statistically, they don't have a one two
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: punch it wide receiver. So maybe that's why this guy helps.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: And is it worth a fourth and a fifth. Here's
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: why it's worth a fourth and a fifth. You have
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: to sometimes and man, for years we've had you know,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: you have to look and understand what the Seahawks are thinking. Now,
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: we don't know one hundred percent, but you can read
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: the tea leaves pretty well. We've talked to I talked
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: about it a lot on this radio station over the years.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: They don't ever think in terms of rebuild. They don't
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: think in terms of, hey, maybe next year unless the
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: record in the season dictates that. But by and large,
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: the way that front office works and the way that
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: organization works, and if you're a Seahawks fan, you have
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: to love it. Now, it hasn't worked out in terms
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: of playoff wins and getting back to a conference title
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: game and all that in a while. But I'm going
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: to tell you the one thing I am really confident
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: with when I tell you this, from being around that
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: organization for a long time and covering them for a
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: long time here and parts all across the country. They
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: have the pedal to the metal. They push the gas pedal,
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: and they push it every year. They are an aggressive
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: thinking organization. So while on paper, a fourth and a
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: fifth for a guy that's okay, his production has been
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: okay and as Hugh broke down the tape, maybe not
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: as explosive as the reputation may say. This is an
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: organization that made that move for one reason, and that's
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: the reason is that they think they're a contender. They
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: think that they are a contender. They're in a go
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: for it mode. That's how they operate. They're very, very aggressive.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: I love it, I mean, and sometimes it backfires.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Jamal Adams, I was just gonna say, twenty five, twenty five.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Jamal Adams backfired big time. But when they went out
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: and got big cat Leonard Williams, I didn't backfire. Now,
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: they didn't get to where they wanted to be that year,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: but they resigned the guy and kept him around, right.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: So I think that's one of the things to keep
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: in mind, that they are an organization that is very aggressive,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: and I think if you're a fan, you have to
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: love that. I think you have to love the mentality of,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: you know, especially in a salary cap league, that they
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: do whatever they can to push the envelope and get
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: to that point of doing the best that they possibly
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: can in the season in which they feel like they
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: are a true contender. And I think that's what they're
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: thinking right now. Now. Does this guy put them over
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: the top. I'm not saying that by any means, So
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: don't put words in my mouth. I'm not saying that
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: they you know, I'm not saying necessarily that they're going
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: to win this whole thing and that this guy puts
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: them over the top. I'm just telling you that how
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: they operate, how they operate is we're going to go
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: for it and try to make the best run possible
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: every year. I was talking to MJ earlier. You know,
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: they've done this before with guys and mid season trades
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: with expiring contracts and people go, God, that's a lot
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: to give up, or why are you giving that up?
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: And while they may not extend said player initially, Leonard
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: Williams and Ernest Jones both worked out pretty well. Right
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: get him in the building. See what it looks like.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Are these guys that we can sign to another contract
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: and keep them here for a long time. And those
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: guys both were dudes that did that Ernst Jones last
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: year and obviously a couple three years ago it was
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Leonard Williams. So maybe this is a guy you keep
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: around and your trio of wide receivers the rest of
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: this season and moving ahead is JSN, Rashid chi Heat
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: and Tory Horton. I'm okay with that. Pretty good, pretty
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: good weapons.
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: Especially touchdown toy. Yeah, especially when you can't run the football. Ooh,
• 19:21
  Speaker 5: that's sort okay, kind.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Of maybe maybe needed some more weapons on the outside
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: because at some point someone might actually scheme up. Somebody
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: may scheme up at some point and actually, I don't know,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: trying to figure out a way to bracket and you know,
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: just absolutely shut down JSN. So you need the other
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: guys do it now. Last week, obviously Tory Horton had
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: a couple of touchdowns. Cody White had the one as well,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: But you get the point. I mean, that was bad
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: defense they are playing. Probably won't see a defense that
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: bad the rest of the year. Okay, we'll come back.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: Don't forget cracking ticket too, say when you hear the

• 21:13
  Speaker 2: All right, here we go, checking in with our kugs,
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: our weekly visit, heading into a bye week, thankfully before
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: the final few games of the season for the Cougs.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: It has been a year some highs and some lows
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: for this team. And the low might have been the
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: rock bottom that was on Saturday, which we're going to
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: get into in a second. MK is here, Alex is here,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: and in away we go, h and we'll do a
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: segment here and then a quick short segment to end
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: in a minute that one. I want to kind of
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: go bigger picture with some things in a second on
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: this by week, guys, but we got to react to
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: what happened on Saturday. And I'll start and Alex, I
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: want you to jump in, and then MK as well.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: I just I think what happens Saturday offensively is unacceptable.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: I just I just think it's it's you know, for
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: you're trying to keep a fan base engaged. You're trying
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: to keep you know, you're trying to build off some
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: momentum of you know, listen, m CA, you said it
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: last week. There's no such thing as a an emotion
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: What is it? You know, a win that kind of matters,
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: an emotional win or you know you can't take moral victory, right,
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Man A one to seven team shout
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: out to coach Ake Alex. You warned us last week
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: about him, and we all know what he's capable of.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: When your defense has what it was it seven tackles
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: for loss and a whole a handful of sacks, five
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: sacks or something and holds the other team to Temple,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: you gotta win that football game. You gotta win that
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: football game. And I just I don't understand it. But Alex,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: you were there. You can maybe explain what happened to
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: me offensively, because the defense played well enough to win
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: almost any game you play. Explain, Alex, please explain.
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah. I mean, look, any time you score seven points
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: in a football game, it's I think anybody would tell
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: you it's unacceptable for sure, and you know there was
• 22:57
  Speaker 7: there were some place to be made. But I mean,
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: if I'm being on guys like, it's really hard to
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: operate an offensive game plan when you have four out
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: of five offensive linemen in different spots, you know what
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: I mean. And so I go back to You've got
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: both both your right tackles starting backup, right tackle out,
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: you move your left guard to right tackle. You have
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: a brand new left guard in making a second start,
• 23:19
  Speaker 7: and then in game your center, your veterans for your
• 23:23
  Speaker 7: starting center goes down. You got a brand new center
• 23:26
  Speaker 7: is never taking a snap, and then your right guard
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: has been banged up all year. So you run out
• 23:30
  Speaker 7: a true freshman to try and to try and you know,
• 23:32
  Speaker 7: see if you can find some consistency at that position.
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: I mean other than your left guard ash and trip
• 23:37
  Speaker 7: or left tackle ashing trip. Like I said, four out
• 23:39
  Speaker 7: of five players really hadn't seen meaningful snaps and you know,
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: in in those positions. So I saw that inconsistency very
• 23:47
  Speaker 7: much so. But at the same time, like I will say,
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: like there was there are throws to be made, there
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: was runs to be had. You know, there were some
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: opportunities that you probably don't score more than more than
• 23:58
  Speaker 7: fourteen or twenty one points, but that's all you need
• 24:00
  Speaker 7: to score because your defense is playing so good, and
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: so I think for you know, for Washington State, it's
• 24:06
  Speaker 7: trying to figure out, you know, this is the reality, right,
• 24:08
  Speaker 7: how do you make it work over the next three games,
• 24:11
  Speaker 7: because you know the goal is to try and get
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: bull eligible and they need to get two out of three.
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: And there's there's two parts to this. I mean, I'll
• 24:19
  Speaker 8: start with the defense. I mean, defensively, they played so well.
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: I mean, to have two turnovers on your side and
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: still you know, have your back against the wall, go
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: out and hold a team to ten points. And let's
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: be real, I mean, Hankerson is is one hell of
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: a back. If you've seen this guy run, he's one
• 24:36
  Speaker 8: of the best in the nation. But his feet and
• 24:38
  Speaker 8: knees were going consistently. He hit every single hole super
• 24:41
  Speaker 8: hard and it wasn't just one guy taking him down.
• 24:44
  Speaker 8: I mean he was absolutely terrorizing out there. You know,
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: I think he had like one hundred and forty on
• 24:47
  Speaker 8: the ground. But I was talking about this with Coach Ake.
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: Those of you who have watched Coach Ake, he was
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: the most energetic person we've ever seen on the sideline before.
• 24:56
  Speaker 8: And Oregon State needed something like that in their locker
• 24:58
  Speaker 8: room to have them believe that they can do something.
• 25:01
  Speaker 8: And uh, he had these guys he he he gets
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: his defense pin their ears back, has him go. So
• 25:06
  Speaker 8: you have this Washington State line that's you know, balanced,
• 25:09
  Speaker 8: they're balancing around now, they're dealing with different positions and
• 25:11
  Speaker 8: they had blitzes coming. They don't know how to you know,
• 25:14
  Speaker 8: audible get into different positions and like that organst they
• 25:17
  Speaker 8: had seven sacks, seven sacks, two interceptions.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: It's tough.
• 25:21
  Speaker 8: So to watch that offense out there, it was. It
• 25:23
  Speaker 8: was painful to watch.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: It was hard. Yeah, I felt like, I mean, honestly,
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you, that offense looked like O
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: waito nine Paul Wolf offense like and I thought I
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: thought it might have been been Kevin Lapina playing quarterback
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: as opposed as I mean, my god, it was just
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: it was that bad. And I understand the offensive lineux
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: I get that. I also think that's a program issue.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: You gotta you know, that's a that's an off season
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: which will get too bigger pictcher in a second, Like
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: you got guys on scholarship. They're one seven football team.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: They're not good and you know, if they would have
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: got beat like by Toledo or something. I think I
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: would have dealt with it, like you, Okay's a good
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Mac team, like you know, they and their physical and
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: all that. You know, Akey just got him going. I
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: get that. Let's talk about zeb Alex because the weird
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: thing is and this is what and I'm I don't
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: want to say I'm speaking for all fans. I'm speaking
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: for some fans that I've heard from and Jess probably
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: has heard from, and you guys are probably heard from
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: the whole. First of all, not an indictment on Jimmy Rodgers. Man,
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: I think this guy, I think we got a coach,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Like I think we got a guy at least, I
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: mean we could see it on the defense. We see
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: what hell they lost and they lose their best linebacker
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: this year before he even took a snap, right, like
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: they they've lost dudes, They lost dudes, you know.
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: Deep on the defensive life basically.
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Exactly right, And like this kind of has a Mike
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: McDonald feel to it, Like this guy knows how to
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: scheme up a defense. He knows how to get the
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: best out of guys that are backups in a lot
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: of cases like and that's what McDonald's doing with the
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Hawks right now in the second year. That's what this
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: guy's doing. I him and Bobb it a plus we're
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: all over that one. Outside of the ub game. There
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: the quarterback thing. I have to rap By, Like what's
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: going on? So Zeby can't play the first few games
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: and you won't put him in no matter what. Then
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: you take out, then you take Potter out, you put
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: zev in, and now you can't take zev out and
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: you say there's plays to be made, Alex, like it's
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: got to be one or the other. Like like, is
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: if and if Potter is going to be the guy
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: next year, wouldn't that have been the game? Like hey, man, Zey,
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: take a series off or something because you just don't
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: have it. You look like a deerren headlights right now.
• 27:21
  Speaker 7: Well again, like the right the issue, I mean one
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: of the biggest one of Jackson Potter's bigger issues is
• 27:26
  Speaker 7: you know he's kind of his either lack of a
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: mobility or inability or unwillingness to use his legs right
• 27:34
  Speaker 7: and like when you're playing behind a completely remade offensive line,
• 27:38
  Speaker 7: right you know where you're giving up some sacks, like
• 27:40
  Speaker 7: you need. And that's where I mean Zeb's biggest plays. Right,
• 27:42
  Speaker 7: we're with his legs even though he's admittedly banged up,
• 27:45
  Speaker 7: and they've all said he's banged up, like we don't
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: know what's going on, but he's not moving as good
• 27:49
  Speaker 7: as he was moving as you dub right, And so
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: you know, I think the for me, it's more about
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: you know, Zev is a veteran player, right like taking
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: you know, making throws when when they're there. Right, he
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: had a he had a big third down throw to
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: Josh Meredith that he's out on the run and they
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: had a miscommunication. He missed him there. You know, the interception,
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: the second interception was egregious, like kid just can't have
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: it like late in the late over the middle in
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: the red zone. You know, the play at the end,
• 28:18
  Speaker 7: the third downplay at the end before the field goal
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: was it was not the right play call by any
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: means in that situation. But you can't you can't like
• 28:24
  Speaker 7: lose yardage like you get stuck, you take a sack
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: on the right or it's better. So for Zebby, it's
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: I think he can do the things. It's and he's
• 28:33
  Speaker 7: shown he can. It's doing them consistently and in the
• 28:38
  Speaker 7: moments you need him to as a veteran player, because
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: that's why he's in there, right. He gives you this
• 28:42
  Speaker 7: veteran presence, he gives you this spark. But you know
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: there's some downside you can see when he's not making
• 28:47
  Speaker 7: the right decisions, which is probably why he wasn't in
• 28:49
  Speaker 7: the starter out of to start the season.
• 28:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but even with his legs, like we would go
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: get those first downs, it's like, man, it's it changes
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: its sparks. It gives you this this big momentum change.
• 28:58
  Speaker 8: And I think the hard part is he runs what
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: some of the runs is like he ran when you
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: should have passed it, or he passed when he should
• 29:05
  Speaker 8: have ran it, right, and just understanding that. And we
• 29:07
  Speaker 8: saw at the end he got gassed a couple of
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: those big runs. He was absolutely gassed at the end,
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: and I think that's why he took one of those sacks.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: He was just he was a gassed that play, that
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: last play. Glad you brought it up. He'll wrap it
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: up this segment with this. That last play is the
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: one that I think kind of bothered a lot of people.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: And I think what it was was this the they
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: were playing to tie, they weren't playing to win, and
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: then you put your kicker in a really a right
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: footed kicker in a really tough angle like that. Just
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that's a zeb decision or if
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: that's a if that's a a play call decision, but
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: that was weird.
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: So I'll give you. I'll give you what I think happened,
• 29:43
  Speaker 7: because I don't know. I haven't talked to Danny Froyd
• 29:45
  Speaker 7: about it. I don't know that. I don't know the
• 29:48
  Speaker 7: exact mechanics of it. But if you think about that drive,
• 29:51
  Speaker 7: you hand the ball off to Nashville Woods and Kirby
• 29:54
  Speaker 7: Vore he's what two or three times, which basically gets
• 29:56
  Speaker 7: you down there, you know, and then they get to
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: that third down and they bring in Woods and Voorhees
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: into the same in the personnel group. Right, So this
• 30:06
  Speaker 7: is anykay can speak to this, Right, You bring in
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: a personnel group with two tight ends, and so what
• 30:10
  Speaker 7: I think the idea is that the defense corner is
• 30:13
  Speaker 7: gonna be like, oh, that's run, and we're gonna play
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: man and we're gonna believe it's run. Right, And then
• 30:17
  Speaker 7: the play call was empty formation Vorhees and maxall woods outside,
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: and I think it was to make them go, oh shoot,
• 30:25
  Speaker 7: we don't know what's happening. And it was not designs
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: Zebie run. It was a fake sprint out to throw
• 30:30
  Speaker 7: a tight end in the back corner of the end zone, right,
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: so get everybody to think Zebby's running the ball and
• 30:36
  Speaker 7: then to throw it. Like again, the thought process and
• 30:39
  Speaker 7: the potential there is probably fine. But the downside, and
• 30:43
  Speaker 7: this is the biggest thing, is the downside is you
• 30:45
  Speaker 7: take a sack on the right hash and your kicker
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: gets a short right hash kick, which is really hard
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: for kickers, right footed kickers.
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: It just is what it is.
• 30:52
  Speaker 7: And so you know, I think they all kind of said,
• 30:54
  Speaker 7: you know, and Zebbie would tell you too, probably need
• 30:55
  Speaker 7: to just throw that ball out of bounds or out
• 30:57
  Speaker 7: of the back of the end zone. And now you
• 30:58
  Speaker 7: got the ball middle, you know, middle, and you don't
• 31:00
  Speaker 7: lose yardage. So all around, I think you put your
• 31:04
  Speaker 7: player in a bad position and your player doesn't make
• 31:06
  Speaker 7: a good play. It doesn't make the right decision. But
• 31:10
  Speaker 7: the thought process of the actual play was not wrong.
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: It just was really poorly executed. Frankly, That's why we
• 31:15
  Speaker 7: had them.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: That's why we have one. That's why we have QB
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: one on right there, MK, That's why you have mon.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: That makes sense. I don't know if I feel. I
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: don't know if I feel I don't know.
• 31:23
  Speaker 9: If no, I don't know.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: If I'm run better.
• 31:25
  Speaker 7: But on Tuesday morning, if I'm Tuesday morning quarterback, if
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: I'm Tuesday morning quarterback, in this thing, you just had
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: ten runs, ten to ten plus yard runs by Nashvill,
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: Woods and Kirby Bore, he'd probably hand the.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Ball running hard. Yeah, I agree. All right, Well take
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: quick break, come back, wrap things up with the coops
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: on the Spy Week nine three point three k ter FM.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: All right, welcome back in, Alex and MK are here.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Let's fuck bigger picture. Would we agree?
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: MK?
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: I'll start with you. Would we agree the defense were
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: good with the progression, what they're doing, what they're doing defensively,
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, obviously personnel wise, they need to upgrade some things,
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: and guys are banged up this year, but we'd agree
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: they're okay. And that's side the ball.
• 32:05
  Speaker 8: They're playing great. I mean, I love the packages were
• 32:07
  Speaker 8: putting in. I love how we're blitzing. Love how we're tackling.
• 32:09
  Speaker 8: I mean, Plano has been absolutely amazing. Frances has been
• 32:13
  Speaker 8: freaking coming downhill like hell bent. I love the d
• 32:15
  Speaker 8: line played a couple of sloppy penalties, but other than that, man,
• 32:18
  Speaker 8: they're playing hard like I loved it, Like they played
• 32:20
  Speaker 8: with the chip on their shoulder, and it's like something
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: we haven't seen in a long time collectively from Washington State.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: So I'm happy with it, which is wild because the
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: previous head coach is a defensive guy too, But that's fine,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: all right, let's uh alex offensive side of the football.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: The I want to start just with the quarterback. That's
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: whatever he looks at. Zevy's gone after this year, is
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: out of eligibility. Do you do you think that they
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: have something in Potter? Do you think they have something
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: in Dugard? Do you think they have to go somewhere else?
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, what's your thoughts on moving ahead bigger picture?
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Quarterback wise?
• 32:52
  Speaker 7: Well, I think, I mean, who knows, I guess. I mean,
• 32:55
  Speaker 7: I think I think Jackson Potter has shown some some
• 32:58
  Speaker 7: really good things throwing the ball early in this season.
• 33:00
  Speaker 7: I think he'll learn a lot from that experience, for sure,
• 33:03
  Speaker 7: just being around him, like he's a really solid kid
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: that can be a leader, and I think can handle
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: the situation he was in. I think Julian Douggar is
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: an elite physical talent and you know, his same thing.
• 33:15
  Speaker 7: His experience, while not fantastic, will will benefit him potentially.
• 33:19
  Speaker 7: I've heard incredible things about the true freshman on the
• 33:23
  Speaker 7: roster from he's from Kansas. I can't met his names
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: or from Nebraska. My name and his name's escaping me,
• 33:28
  Speaker 7: but I've heard that he's got a real shot to
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: be in the mix also, so I think I think
• 33:33
  Speaker 7: the quarterback of the future for Washing stays on this roster.
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: I don't know, I don't know who it is, right,
• 33:39
  Speaker 7: but what I do think is that and this is
• 33:42
  Speaker 7: this is where everybody, you know, you already talked about it,
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: like you believe in Jimmy Rodgers. You believe that he
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: can scheme of defense, he can find personnel, he can
• 33:48
  Speaker 7: find coaching staffs, like you know, we're what seven eight games,
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: nine games into the first season here of a season
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: that has tagged, like you said, ups and downs, but
• 33:58
  Speaker 7: some real silver linings along the way, with some real challenges,
• 34:01
  Speaker 7: like I want across the board offense, defense, special teams.
• 34:04
  Speaker 7: Like let's see it play out for a couple of
• 34:06
  Speaker 7: years before we make before we make Paul Wolf Paul
• 34:08
  Speaker 7: Wolf offense comparisons, or like decide one or the other
• 34:12
  Speaker 7: where this thing's at. Like I think there is something there,
• 34:15
  Speaker 7: and mostly because the headman seems to have a good
• 34:17
  Speaker 7: a good finger on things, and like, let's see where
• 34:20
  Speaker 7: it goes. But I do think the quarterback of this
• 34:22
  Speaker 7: the future is on this roster.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: The offensive line is obviously the issue. Well, that and
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: the I mean Angel Johnson. Trace Gregg had a twenty
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: one yard run. That's more yards I think in one
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: run than he's had all year. I mean, I'm not
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: sure if he's made a guy miss I love Warhe's
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: like Vorheas runs hard large, I mean super hard.
• 34:38
  Speaker 9: Woods looked really good.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: I mean Wood is good. Yeah, I got it.
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: You know, Varheas and Woods are underclassman Loopool off season
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: under class You've got You're going to get Trey Leckner back,
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: you know, potentially, you know, receivers, you got to find
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: some spots for sure. And then offensive line, I mean,
• 34:52
  Speaker 7: part of the benefit of playing these young guys is
• 34:54
  Speaker 7: like they're getting they're getting some reps.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: You know, right now, I'm a big fan of offensive line.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: You can build something with it. And that building starts
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: in December, and I'll go to mister, mister Olympia here,
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: uh like, like seriously, MK, and you've worked I mean
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: he worked with a high school team this year. They
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: went to you for a reason. You know, I watched.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: I watched my kids do it, uh you know as
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: small school. But I watched them just come together as
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: a group and and and frankly didn't miss a game.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: And you know why. They worked their ass off in
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: the weight room. They looked the part and that. But
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: that's that's the thing. Like, MK, I look at that
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: offensive line, young guys, old guys, doesn't matter, first string,
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: four string, dude, find your way to the weight room.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Like like, I think you can build that offensive line.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: I don't think you need to go to the portal
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: and go find it. Guy. Hell LSU did that this year.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: They spent a ton of money going to the offensive
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: line into the portal. I think those guys got fat
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: and happy and the coach get fired, like, like, it
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: is no fun to play that position. You got to
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: have a work ethic, MK. You watch those guys go
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: against defenses. Can you build an offensive line that way?
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: Can you? I mean, maybe bring them to the Buffalo gym.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 35:57
  Speaker 8: You know, the crazy thing is, I was just talking
• 35:58
  Speaker 8: to somebody about this. I wish I knew now what
• 36:01
  Speaker 8: I know now back then, right, so, we was talking
• 36:03
  Speaker 8: about these different eras of how we're growing and adapting.
• 36:06
  Speaker 8: I went back to Washington State. You look inside the
• 36:08
  Speaker 8: locker room, and you know, they have supplements, they have meals,
• 36:11
  Speaker 8: they have protein, they have all these things that we
• 36:14
  Speaker 8: didn't have Alex when we were playing, Like we were
• 36:16
  Speaker 8: eating Chopo's Diner down the street in Regent's Hall and
• 36:19
  Speaker 8: had no idea about portions. I'm you know, filling my
• 36:21
  Speaker 8: plate with noodles and bread and just trying to figure
• 36:24
  Speaker 8: out weight gainer and stuff like that and figured out
• 36:27
  Speaker 8: what creating was. And these guys now, the programs are
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: so dow.
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: Then.
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: You know, they have some programs with everybody's shoulders hurts
• 36:33
  Speaker 8: because you know, their coach they got off the you know,
• 36:35
  Speaker 8: out of Gold's gym, and all they're doing is, you know,
• 36:38
  Speaker 8: weird shoulder movements that are hurting the players. Now collectively
• 36:41
  Speaker 8: they have these workout routines and proteins and everything to
• 36:44
  Speaker 8: where everybody's growing at the same level, which I love.
• 36:48
  Speaker 8: So Washington stand thing is doing a great job, But
• 36:50
  Speaker 8: it goes back to nil. It goes goes back to recruiting.
• 36:53
  Speaker 8: What's our thought process of developing players like you were
• 36:55
  Speaker 8: talking about. But I do think the gold standard is
• 36:58
  Speaker 8: going to be Juco's. I think a lot of coaches
• 37:01
  Speaker 8: and universities are gonna go after these young guys, the
• 37:03
  Speaker 8: Blue Chippers, all these guys, and they're gonna kind of
• 37:06
  Speaker 8: forget about the last chance you or the guy that
• 37:09
  Speaker 8: maybe made a mistake that had to go to Juco
• 37:11
  Speaker 8: and fix something that can play right now. And I
• 37:14
  Speaker 8: think that's the thing that coach is gonna look for,
• 37:16
  Speaker 8: is some of these Juco players.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: Well, I think not even Juco. I think it's I
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: think it's even FCS. I think it's D two, it's
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: D three. It doesn't matter because those guys are all
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: getting pushed down with guys staying five years, because guys
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: getting paid like every guy, like like the high school
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: recruiting is for some of the bigger schools is like
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: not an afterthought. But hell, I mean Alex you work
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: with quarterbacks. You know, these quarter especially quarterbacks, they are like, yeah,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go here, and then I'm not gonna play,
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: so I'm gonna go there. I mean, look at Sam Huart,
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: He's been to like six schools. Guy's number one guy
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: in the country. But there's guys getting pushed down. I
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: think offensive line, maybe even to a certain extent, the
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: defensive line, those guys, the big hogs up front. I
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: think you can develop those guys with fixed ye.
• 37:55
  Speaker 7: I mean, like, well just look about look at semi
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: recent history of Washington State, right, Like the best offensive
• 38:01
  Speaker 7: lineman in recent memory at Washington State were from the
• 38:03
  Speaker 7: state of Washington. Yes, they're relatively likely recruited. Whether it
• 38:07
  Speaker 7: was Andre Dillard, whether it was Abe Lucas, whether it
• 38:09
  Speaker 7: was you know, Cody O'Connell, whether it was I mean,
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: like I mean, we could go you know, like there's
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: these guys you know right now, Ashton Trip. You know,
• 38:20
  Speaker 7: brock Do really was not that highly thought of early
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: in his career at Washington State. He really worked to
• 38:25
  Speaker 7: get to that point. Like you said, weight room, he's
• 38:27
  Speaker 7: super intelligent player. Like offensive lineman, it's a three year
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: process of them hinting to where they need to be right,
• 38:34
  Speaker 7: So they come in usually they're a little under developed physically,
• 38:36
  Speaker 7: like you said, and you hit the weight room, you
• 38:38
  Speaker 7: hit the training table, you do all that, you get
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: physically better. You know, you're I'm looking at I think Martin,
• 38:43
  Speaker 7: the backup center that came in right, he's I mean,
• 38:46
  Speaker 7: he's a sophomore, Like he looks like a totally fine player.
• 38:49
  Speaker 7: Like and the true freshman on the right at right guard, like,
• 38:52
  Speaker 7: they're gonna be fine. It's but it is probably a
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: two or three year process. You remember Falley, You remember
• 38:57
  Speaker 7: his first start right Oregon State in Corvallis. Cam Ward's
• 39:02
  Speaker 7: first year total debacle. We all walked away from that game, like, well,
• 39:05
  Speaker 7: who's cam Ward? What's follow Lee Oi going to do
• 39:08
  Speaker 7: playing right tackle? Oh, this is the worst offense we've
• 39:10
  Speaker 7: ever seen. Cam Moore's a number one overall draft pick.
• 39:13
  Speaker 7: Two years later, Paul mooy is going to be a
• 39:14
  Speaker 7: first round draft pick when he leaves. Wait for us, right, like,
• 39:17
  Speaker 7: I mean, honestly, like, that's that's the development timeline that
• 39:21
  Speaker 7: is hard for us all to wrap our head round.
• 39:23
  Speaker 8: But it's the reality being a true freshman starting in
• 39:27
  Speaker 8: one of these you know, bigger leagues. Uh you know,
• 39:30
  Speaker 8: uh Power five conference all online planning against a senior
• 39:34
  Speaker 8: d tackle or senior defensive end. Could you imagine that
• 39:36
  Speaker 8: coming up of a high school fear and having to
• 39:38
  Speaker 8: block somebody like that?
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: That's all well, it's and I think that's what it
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: goes back to, because I think it does have to
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: start with with the offensive line and the defensive line
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: to a certain extent as well. And that's why like,
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: don't don't have the coup Collective cent and the stuff
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: altcoho and hey man, you got to donate. Now we
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: just lost to Oregon. Say we've got to donate. No, man,
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: you got to get dudes in the weight room and
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: you got to develop guys. You want to tell me
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: you got to donate for a quarterback or something. Sure,
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: that's great, that's cool, But I think, like you said, Alex,
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: there's guys in this program. That's not how Wazu's gonna
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: operate moving forward. They just can't be you know, we're
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: not gonna be able to compete with that. You gotta donate,
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: you gotta do. You got to do your part. I
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: get that, but let's develop them dudes in the weight room.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: Let's let's see what December Janet. Now, I think the
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: bowl game is important, guys, really, I got we gotta
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: wrap it up. I think it's really important, Alex, would
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: you agree, Like, get to a bowl game, helping these guys.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: You're not losing. Ain't nobody nobody on this team's opted
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: out to go to the NFL like.
• 40:23
  Speaker 7: And again, I think I said before, with only one
• 40:26
  Speaker 7: portal window, the later you play into the winner, the
• 40:29
  Speaker 7: more important it is. Because the more visible you are
• 40:32
  Speaker 7: as you head into the portal, the longer you get
• 40:33
  Speaker 7: to keep.
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: Your guys in the building with you.
• 40:37
  Speaker 7: Practicing, playing all the things. So I mean that's super important.
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: I'm with you, all right. Tell us about the shoe company, Alex.
• 40:43
  Speaker 7: Okay, check out Osaga dot com family shoe bran my
• 40:46
  Speaker 7: grandfather starting the seventies, my brother and I reviving retro runner,
• 40:49

• 43:57
  Speaker 9: So thank you very much at pfb wire, cross all
• 44:00
  Speaker 9: social media and YouTube.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: Go check you my yes, go check that stuff. So
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: it was a busy day for all those covering the
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: NFL Niners kind of quiet right in the trade deadline
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: October November with disappointing up.
• 44:12
  Speaker 9: Yeah, disappointing because look, whether you want to admit it
• 44:15
  Speaker 9: or not. And I know we're gonna get into a
• 44:16
  Speaker 9: lot of sextus shit. They're extremely impressive and one of
• 44:19
  Speaker 9: the better teams in the NFL. But the forty nine ers,
• 44:22
  Speaker 9: I don't know how they've done it. Duck tape, whatever
• 44:23
  Speaker 9: the case may be, to be six and three, and
• 44:26
  Speaker 9: they have Kyle Shanahan maybe if they were to keep
• 44:28
  Speaker 9: this up, the coach of the Year. And I know
• 44:29
  Speaker 9: what Mike McDonald's doing. I get it. A bunch of
• 44:31
  Speaker 9: people are screaming and hissing, and you know, upset, Hey,
• 44:34
  Speaker 9: Mike McDonald's doing a great job. But they're literally being
• 44:37
  Speaker 9: held together with duck tape. They have by far the
• 44:39
  Speaker 9: most injuries financially in any other way that you look
• 44:41
  Speaker 9: at it in the league, and yet there they are,
• 44:43
  Speaker 9: and especially defensively, and they haven't had thirty for seven weeks,
• 44:46
  Speaker 9: and et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. I expect anybody
• 44:49
  Speaker 9: to feel sorry for him, but to not go out today.
• 44:52
  Speaker 9: And I realized, and I know what John Lynch is
• 44:53
  Speaker 9: going to say without him saying it because he set
• 44:55
  Speaker 9: up to my face before, which is, hey, it takes two.
• 44:58
  Speaker 9: We tried, blah blah blah. Sports. This is not about
• 45:00
  Speaker 9: we tried. Sports is about accomplishing thing. Damn we lost
• 45:03
  Speaker 9: with three seconds our kick or missed, whatever the case
• 45:05
  Speaker 9: may be. You have to execute. And it's not only
• 45:09
  Speaker 9: on the field. It's on coaches, it's on management, it's
• 45:11
  Speaker 9: on everybody to execute and put that right player and
• 45:14
  Speaker 9: get that right player. Fred Warner is not replaceable, but
• 45:17
  Speaker 9: they've got some linebackers that can still play. Tatum Bethune
• 45:20
  Speaker 9: is one of the guys. But there's no pass rush.
• 45:23
  Speaker 9: I don't care if you get calling, you know, if
• 45:24
  Speaker 9: you get Faral, you know, he's horrible. The former Raider
• 45:29
  Speaker 9: and they had him before. He's not a pass rusher.
• 45:31
  Speaker 9: They picked up a guy from New England. He's not
• 45:34
  Speaker 9: a pass rusher. He's an inside out kind of a guy.
• 45:35
  Speaker 9: They lose mckel Williams, so they lost Bosa. They lost
• 45:38
  Speaker 9: mkel Williams or number one overall, picked the kid from
• 45:40
  Speaker 9: Georgia who's an edge guy. Their defensive line is devastated.
• 45:45
  Speaker 9: And so I understand what the Niners are doing. And
• 45:47
  Speaker 9: this is something we can get into with the Seahawks,
• 45:49
  Speaker 9: You've got to balance your team out as far as
• 45:51
  Speaker 9: who you're going to sign. The Seahawks are going to
• 45:52
  Speaker 9: have a lot of players that they're gonna have to
• 45:54
  Speaker 9: sign coming up, so they got to be careful here,
• 45:56
  Speaker 9: and they did a smart thing today. The Niners need,
• 45:59
  Speaker 9: you know, to come through and to balance their sheet
• 46:02
  Speaker 9: as well as play well because they're very top heavy.
• 46:04
  Speaker 9: But there's no excuse for the way that they're playing
• 46:07
  Speaker 9: right now to stay in this thing and to not
• 46:09
  Speaker 9: get an edge rusher. I don't care if it's Tray
• 46:11
  Speaker 9: Hendrickson or Bradley Chubb or whomeveryone's out there. They did
• 46:15
  Speaker 9: their team a disservice. And and you know this because
• 46:17
  Speaker 9: you've been in the locker room tons in your career.
• 46:20
  Speaker 9: What happens in that locker room is you either believe
• 46:22
  Speaker 9: in this or you don't. And they don't care if
• 46:24
  Speaker 9: you tried, they care if you executed. And then forty
• 46:26
  Speaker 9: nine ers did not get a much much needed addresser.
• 46:29
  Speaker 9: They've been one of the worst team statistically getting to
• 46:33
  Speaker 9: the quarterback and not just sacks, pressures, all those different
• 46:35
  Speaker 9: things analytically since Bosa went down. I think that's a
• 46:39
  Speaker 9: huge win for the rest of the division, that the
• 46:40
  Speaker 9: forty nine ers couldn't get something obvious like this any
• 46:44
  Speaker 9: Edgresher done today.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: I think, I think what you said about the locker
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: room's big, it's it's you know, we've seen that even
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: in baseball here with the Mariners over the years, when
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: they don't make a move, you know, they you know,
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: I thought when they traded for Gino, even before they
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: traded for Josh Naylor, they traded for Geno and that
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: was just a that was honestly in a lot of ways. Now,
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: he hit a huge home run in the ALCS. I
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: get that they end up losing it, but he still
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: hit that home run in Game five. But that was
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: such a big statement, Hey, we're gonna go get Gino.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get him. Okay, we're gonna grab this guy.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: We believe in what you guys are doing. And that
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: was such a boost of that locker room. Even though
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: if the guy struck out eighty percent of his at bats,
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: you know, I mean, it was still you know, good
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: ViBe's only way we go. And Thenablor obviously put him
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: over the top to get to the ALCS. I think
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: football is the same way we've seen this over the years, right,
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: It's it's very much the same way where guys are
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: gonna sit there and go, okay, you know, like here
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: we are at six and three, if you're the forty
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: nine ers, despite all the injuries, we're still very very
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: much in it. But then front office does nothing. Meanwhile,
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: the Rams did a little, Seahawks did a little bit more.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: Philadelphia added three impact players. You could argue, right, and
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: in NFC that's wide open, John wide open. I gotta
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: think that's just a for guys like Kittle when McCaffrey
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: specifically like Trent Williams're like, what do we do?
• 48:00
  Speaker 9: Yeah? Right, Well, And I was down there a couple
• 48:02
  Speaker 9: of days ago and George Kittle said, flat out, we've
• 48:06
  Speaker 9: got to win football games on offense. Now. I mean
• 48:08
  Speaker 9: he was sending a message as a veteran leader, as
• 48:11
  Speaker 9: the veteran leader now that Fred Warner's gone, as the
• 48:14
  Speaker 9: veteran leader, to the front office, to say get us something.
• 48:17
  Speaker 9: He said, flat out, with no rip to the defense,
• 48:20
  Speaker 9: with Fred out, with Nick out, with Mickel Williams their
• 48:22
  Speaker 9: first round pick out of Georgia out, we have got
• 48:25
  Speaker 9: to score points on offense. He said, we got to
• 48:27
  Speaker 9: score thirty plus points a game to win football games.
• 48:29
  Speaker 9: And you know as well as I do, and everybody
• 48:31
  Speaker 9: does listening, the best way that you can when you
• 48:34
  Speaker 9: know your team is really good is when they can
• 48:37
  Speaker 9: win multiple ways. You want to slug it out, fine,
• 48:39
  Speaker 9: you want to win sixteen thirteen, good, you want to
• 48:41
  Speaker 9: win a shootout, we can do that. You look at
• 48:44
  Speaker 9: Seattle right now, and they're a team that can win
• 48:46
  Speaker 9: multiple ways. The Rams can win multiple ways, the Lions
• 48:49
  Speaker 9: can win multiple ways. I'm not saying every week teams
• 48:51
  Speaker 9: get beat. I realize the Lions got beat by the Vikings.
• 48:53
  Speaker 9: But what I'm saying is the best teams in the
• 48:55
  Speaker 9: NFL can sit down and say, if you want to
• 48:57
  Speaker 9: play dirty, we'll get in the mud. If you want
• 48:59
  Speaker 9: to shoot it out, we can do that. Then Niners
• 49:01
  Speaker 9: have one way to win now, which is they got
• 49:03
  Speaker 9: to score thirty. Because you and I talked about this
• 49:06
  Speaker 9: from the beginning of the season. They were going to
• 49:07
  Speaker 9: be young on defense anyway, and now they're just so
• 49:09
  Speaker 9: banged up. And as we pointed out, if you don't
• 49:12
  Speaker 9: send a message to your locker room. And I get it, John,
• 49:14
  Speaker 9: I know John Lynch before he even says that he's
• 49:16
  Speaker 9: gonna have a press conference later today, and he's going
• 49:18
  Speaker 9: to say we tried. Because they're aggressive. They're like the Seahawks,
• 49:21
  Speaker 9: they're like John Snyder. They're in on everything, and they're
• 49:24
  Speaker 9: going to say they tried. But it's just like saying
• 49:27
  Speaker 9: that a player tried. It's the same exact thing. You
• 49:29
  Speaker 9: either execute and get it done or you don't. That's
• 49:31
  Speaker 9: what sports are about.
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: Think with the NFL is hard to figure out sometimes
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: too though, is you know, at the trade deadline here
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: you're eight, you know, eight games into the season, and
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: are you in it or are you not? Now some
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: teams are nine games in, so we're basically at the
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: halfway mark. Is when they have the trade deadline, which
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: frankly is you know, if you look at it from
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: a sports standpoint, probably in some ways you can make
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: an argument me the best time to have a trade deadline, right,
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: you're halfway through, make a decision or don't right like
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: like beable always start very in NBA, NHL, wait till
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: the very end. These guys are halfway through and you're
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: gonna make a decision. You look at it like, what
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: is Dallas. Doing you work there? Like, what do they do?
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: They're three to five and one. They just lost to
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: the Cardinals, for God's sakes.
• 50:12
  Speaker 9: I think it's obvious in having worked there for a
• 50:13
  Speaker 9: number of years and seeing Jerry face to face with
• 50:16
  Speaker 9: the scary in and of itself. The plastic is amazing
• 50:18
  Speaker 9: on his face, but it is scary. It's like, anyway,
• 50:22
  Speaker 9: I shouldn't take personal shots, but that's what I do.
• 50:24
  Speaker 9: So he does it for headlines. He's not in he's
• 50:28
  Speaker 9: not doing it for any reason other than football reasons.
• 50:30
  Speaker 9: Last night, he shouldn't have said anything as he did.
• 50:33
  Speaker 9: He said, we already have a trade in place. He
• 50:34
  Speaker 9: said it last night before the loss of the Cardinals. Look,
• 50:37
  Speaker 9: first of all, that's a horrible trade. The Jets were
• 50:40
  Speaker 9: the real winners today getting all their picks, and if
• 50:42
  Speaker 9: you don't have a quarterback in the building, you have nothing.
• 50:44
  Speaker 9: So the Jets in two years is supposed to be
• 50:46
  Speaker 9: a really good draft. They've got so many draft picks
• 50:49
  Speaker 9: in twenty six and twenty seven they can move up
• 50:50
  Speaker 9: and get any quarterback they want. And when you have that,
• 50:53
  Speaker 9: then you have something going on in your building. Until
• 50:55
  Speaker 9: you do, you just don't but the reality of it
• 50:57
  Speaker 9: is for Jerry is he went out and got Quinn Williams,
• 50:59
  Speaker 9: a former name. Quinn Williams isn't that good anymore. I
• 51:02
  Speaker 9: take both defensive tackles that the Seahawks have right now,
• 51:05
  Speaker 9: and maybe the Seahawks have the best defensive tackle combo
• 51:07
  Speaker 9: in all of the league right now, But I mean,
• 51:09
  Speaker 9: I'd take both those guys ahead of Quinn Williams. I
• 51:11
  Speaker 9: think Quinn Williams might be a top fifteen defensive tackle
• 51:14
  Speaker 9: at this point. Again, analytics, how much you believe in
• 51:17
  Speaker 9: those When it comes to football. He's going the wrong way,
• 51:21
  Speaker 9: and you know he's twenty eight, twenty nigga, twenty nine
• 51:23
  Speaker 9: years old, and I just I just don't understand. But
• 51:26
  Speaker 9: what when you know Jerry and when you understand that
• 51:29
  Speaker 9: he's running not a football team but a reality show,
• 51:32
  Speaker 9: and he's much more worried about being the team that
• 51:36
  Speaker 9: has worked the most and people are buzzing about talking
• 51:38
  Speaker 9: about That's why he said that he knew Stephen A.
• 51:40
  Speaker 9: Smith was in town, he knew ESPN was in town.
• 51:42
  Speaker 9: He wanted to say something, Hey, we got a trade
• 51:44
  Speaker 9: in place, and Logan Wilson wasn't going to do much.
• 51:47
  Speaker 9: I like Logan Wilson. He's not a bad player, but
• 51:49
  Speaker 9: he had to get a big name if he was
• 51:51
  Speaker 9: going to talk that way. So Quinn Williams is a
• 51:52
  Speaker 9: big name, but you gave up a first a second.
• 51:55
  Speaker 9: Mouse Smith is nothing. He's a terrible bust out of Michigan,
• 51:58
  Speaker 9: a former first round pick. But the to give up
• 52:00
  Speaker 9: a first in a second for a declining player like
• 52:03
  Speaker 9: that is so Jerry Jones just to get the headline.
• 52:06
  Speaker 9: He wants to win the press conference, not football games.
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: It's hard, John Lone joining us. The hard thing in
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: the NFC is convincing yourself and maybe the fan base
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: that you're out of it when you're three and five
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: and there's that log jam, you know, Minnesota even at
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: four and four, Minnesota Forum four three, five and one, Dallas, Arizona,
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: if you're starting, by the way they mentioned the headlines
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: are starting Jacoby Brissett again this week against Seattle. They're
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: out of it, but they're three and five. Atlanta's three
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: and five, Washington's three and six. You can make an
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: argument the Giants and the Saints the only ones that
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: are truly out of it, because if you have three
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: wins you're only two wins out of the final wildcard
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: spot right now. But being realistic, you look at who's
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: in there. Philadelphia, Tampa, Bay, Seattle, Green Bay, the Rams,
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: San Franciscoing Detroit. Those are one through seven. Chicago loses
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: a tiebreaker, they're five and three. They're gonna be hanging
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: around battle for a playoff spots. Thrist, those teams aren't
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: in it. You're not in it, Like you're not a
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: playoff team. You can try to convince yourself you are.
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: You're not a playoff team for three and five in
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: the NFC right now.
• 53:10
  Speaker 9: Plus you owe it.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 53:11
  Speaker 9: Here's the thing, and fans know this, and they're smart.
• 53:13
  Speaker 9: We're more informed than we've ever been. And so what
• 53:15
  Speaker 9: happens is is we all understand that there's a natural
• 53:18
  Speaker 9: evolution with your team. It's just when you have the
• 53:21
  Speaker 9: hopeless part, that's what you don't want to be right
• 53:24
  Speaker 9: right now. The Jets, for example, who are completely hopeless too.
• 53:27
  Speaker 9: I have an idiot of a head coach that's going
• 53:28
  Speaker 9: to be at one and done all the things that
• 53:30
  Speaker 9: they normally do. But oh my god, for once they
• 53:33
  Speaker 9: had a great tread deadline in which they can get
• 53:35
  Speaker 9: a base of the franchise at some point, which is
• 53:37
  Speaker 9: something they've been searching for forever. All of a sudden,
• 53:39
  Speaker 9: if you're a Jets fan, you realize that we may
• 53:41
  Speaker 9: have a future. And that's the evolution of being a fan.
• 53:44
  Speaker 9: Is okay, at least you're giving me some hope versus
• 53:47
  Speaker 9: now you look at let's look at Cincinnati, who just
• 53:49
  Speaker 9: has horrid ownership and has for so long. You didn't
• 53:53
  Speaker 9: move Trey Hendrickson. He's not coming back, and you held
• 53:56
  Speaker 9: out for a first round pick. Now you're gonna you know,
• 53:58
  Speaker 9: as far as the compensation picks, she'll get something in
• 54:00
  Speaker 9: the middle of the rounds, but you probably could have
• 54:02
  Speaker 9: got a second or a third that could have become
• 54:04
  Speaker 9: a second. And what you do as well is you
• 54:07
  Speaker 9: tell other players around the league, if you come here
• 54:08
  Speaker 9: and sign here, which no one will, then we'll treat
• 54:11
  Speaker 9: you right. They should have treated him right and traded
• 54:13
  Speaker 9: him to a contender. You know, other guys are Miami
• 54:15
  Speaker 9: sitting there, Jalen Wattle and Bradley Shubb and type guy like. Look,
• 54:20
  Speaker 9: you're in a reset mode and what you need is
• 54:23
  Speaker 9: more bites at the Apple and in the NFL more
• 54:25
  Speaker 9: than any other league. You can get guys in the
• 54:28
  Speaker 9: fifth round and the sixth round and the seventh round.
• 54:29
  Speaker 9: You just need more picks, you need more opportunities. I mean,
• 54:33
  Speaker 9: I was looking at Seattle's picks, and you know, you
• 54:35
  Speaker 9: can go back when they were so good and won
• 54:37
  Speaker 9: the Super Bowl and you look at like two, three
• 54:39
  Speaker 9: four drafts in a row. Their last three drafts are awesome.
• 54:41
  Speaker 9: And it's not just because you know, they get a
• 54:43
  Speaker 9: Charles Cross in the first round or Whetherspoon or something
• 54:46
  Speaker 9: like that. It's across the board and you just you
• 54:48
  Speaker 9: hit on a tory hole. You just boom boom, boom boom,
• 54:51
  Speaker 9: and all of a sudden you're back in it because
• 54:53
  Speaker 9: you have this young talent that you drafted over three
• 54:57
  Speaker 9: four drafts, and not just in the first round. You
• 55:00
  Speaker 9: nailed a bunch of them because you had more opportunities.
• 55:03
  Speaker 9: And that's the lifeblood of a team. You can go
• 55:05
  Speaker 9: out every year and have the most money and spend
• 55:07
  Speaker 9: in free agency and do all those things that just
• 55:09
  Speaker 9: illustrate that you failed. The draft is where it's at,
• 55:13
  Speaker 9: and the more picks and the more opportunities you have
• 55:16
  Speaker 9: to try to get those type of players on your team.
• 55:18
  Speaker 9: The better, and a team like the Jets did it today,
• 55:21
  Speaker 9: a team like the Dolphins, a team like the Saints.
• 55:23
  Speaker 9: You know, you got to do more of that because
• 55:26
  Speaker 9: if you don't, you're just doing a disservice. You're not
• 55:28
  Speaker 9: And I understand what you said, and you're right. You
• 55:30
  Speaker 9: don't want to ever market nobody ever anymore. Use rebuilt.
• 55:33
  Speaker 9: That sounds like a curseword in sports, But at some point,
• 55:37
  Speaker 9: I don't care how you market it. We understand that
• 55:40
  Speaker 9: you're not good and you should be moving players and
• 55:43
  Speaker 9: getting opportunities to get better. And these teams today who
• 55:45
  Speaker 9: didn't clearly Tennessee, Miami, the Bengals, they're idiots.
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: Well, I think you make the you know you talk
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: about the draft. I think you make a real strong
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: argument in this division, just our division, the NFCU West, Oh.
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, look at what the Rams they've done, a
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: perfect raw, Yeah, Ramas, And listen the forty nine ers too,
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: they've just somehow they kind of duct tape it stuff together.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: The injuries are just killing them for two years in
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: a row. Bad luck. I mean, having your first round
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: pick this year who you had to lean on hard
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: get out, you know, get knocked out for the rest
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: of the season. In addition to Fred Warner right, and
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: and you know, I you still not back all those things.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: But the ramp Pots, yeah, Bosa. What the Rams are
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: done is remarkable. I mean, they're Their defensive draft, especially
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: last year was phenomenal, and they mix it in with
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: some some veterans. They also know I think the key
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: in the NFL you just mentioned all those guys like
• 56:31
  Speaker 2: Wattle and Chub in Miami know when to cut bait. No,
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: when know when it's time to go, Like like Schneider
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: took a lot of grief when they made the when
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: they got rid of Gino and they made a decision
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: to go Gino, and then a day later they flip
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: it for for Sam Darnell. Basically, right know, they're gonna
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: get Sam Donald you know, the meta Times of the World.
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: He'll never recover from this. The worst worst move of
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: the offseason. Okay, hunt, like not really like it's actually
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: turned out pretty good, you know, like it's turned out pretty.
• 56:56
  Speaker 4: Good because.
• 56:59
  Speaker 9: They just.
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: But I mean, seriously, it's like because you know, like
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: Schneider knows when to cut bait. It's like, okay, Russ,
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: Russ is declining. We're not paying you fifty five million
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: a year. You're out. People lost their mind. Gino lost
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: their mind. Okay, look at what the rams on. Jalen Ramsey.
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: Time to move on. We're good. See Jalen, you know
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: we're good. Time to move on, you know. And that's
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: what they've done. It's it's and I think when you
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: look around the league, that's what you have to do.
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: You have to know when to cut bait and then
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: when to kind of and who to build around. We'll
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: build around Matt Stafford, right, Stafford still has something, and
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: we'll build around him and go with some young defensive
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: players and so on and so forth. And that's and
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: that's what in Philadelphia. Philadelphia has done an incredible job
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: putting the roster together.
• 57:43
  Speaker 9: And he just hit the teams that did it. But
• 57:45
  Speaker 9: here's what they have in common. And you can do
• 57:47
  Speaker 9: this with baseball and basketball and football and all these
• 57:49
  Speaker 9: kind of things. What you're trying to do is get
• 57:52
  Speaker 9: your core players about the same age, which is the
• 57:55
  Speaker 9: prime of their career, which is really difficult to do.
• 57:58
  Speaker 9: But you have two young players are too young. Players
• 58:00
  Speaker 9: are too old, and so what you do is in
• 58:02
  Speaker 9: that key area from let's say age twenty five to
• 58:06
  Speaker 9: twenty nine, right or thirty or whatever in that age
• 58:08
  Speaker 9: age range. You want to get as many players in
• 58:11
  Speaker 9: that range in their prime as you possibly can. And
• 58:13
  Speaker 9: you have that, then you ride that. But when you
• 58:16
  Speaker 9: start to get out of it, like the teams, like
• 58:18
  Speaker 9: I said, Trey Hendrickson is not is a thirty year
• 58:20
  Speaker 9: old guy, He's not going to be around when when
• 58:23
  Speaker 9: the Bengals get good. I don't care that Burrow is
• 58:25
  Speaker 9: coming back next year, They're just not going to be
• 58:27
  Speaker 9: in it in Miami with Waddle and Chubb. There you got.
• 58:30
  Speaker 9: It's really simple math. You've got to get as many
• 58:33
  Speaker 9: guys in every single sport that you have, all professional
• 58:36
  Speaker 9: sports that are you get more in the prime than
• 58:39
  Speaker 9: the other team, and all of a sudden you're the
• 58:40
  Speaker 9: best team. So you just mentioned the Rams who have
• 58:42
  Speaker 9: been drafting well, and Seattle's drafted well, and the Eagles
• 58:45
  Speaker 9: have drafted well, and the Lions have drafted well. And
• 58:47
  Speaker 9: you get these three four drafts and they carry you
• 58:50
  Speaker 9: for about four or five years, and then you got
• 58:52
  Speaker 9: to resign them all so they get too expensive and
• 58:54
  Speaker 9: they start chipping away at you. It's just the process
• 58:57
  Speaker 9: that the way it happens, especially in the NFL, and
• 58:59
  Speaker 9: all of a sudden, you look at Seattle and Philly
• 59:01
  Speaker 9: and the Rams, and they've got those guys in their prime.
• 59:03
  Speaker 9: If you're not one of those teams, especially if you
• 59:05
  Speaker 9: don't have a quarterback, then you've got to move assets
• 59:08
  Speaker 9: because you've got to be realistic with yourself. And I
• 59:11
  Speaker 9: understand the fan base. Look, it's the NFL. They're still
• 59:13
  Speaker 9: coming out. You've got tons of money, you got all
• 59:16
  Speaker 9: these revenue streams. You're not gonna go broke like the
• 59:18
  Speaker 9: other sports. You don't have to keep your stars beyond
• 59:22
  Speaker 9: the expiration data. As you pointed out, You're still gonna
• 59:24
  Speaker 9: have revenue. You're still gonna have money. These teams make
• 59:26
  Speaker 9: money when if one fan doesn't walk through the gates.
• 59:30
  Speaker 9: We saw it in the pandemic. They were you know,
• 59:33
  Speaker 9: it wasn't the greatest, but it still was okay because
• 59:35
  Speaker 9: of the all the other revenue streams they have. You
• 59:37
  Speaker 9: can hit the reset button. Now you can't do it
• 59:39
  Speaker 9: again and again and again because you lose the trust
• 59:41
  Speaker 9: of your fan base. But you've got to know when
• 59:43
  Speaker 9: you're done, and you got to be honest with yourself,
• 59:45
  Speaker 9: and then you're trying to again get the lifeblood of
• 59:48
  Speaker 9: the draft back so that you can get back into
• 59:50
  Speaker 9: this game. And it's no surprise of you. Look at
• 59:53
  Speaker 9: this division in the NFC specifically, there's a lot of
• 59:56
  Speaker 9: teams with those great players, and if you're not one
• 59:59
  Speaker 9: of those, you got to players. It's a really simple equation.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 9: And I don't understand teams who don't understand it.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: By the way, this has been too serious of a conversation.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: I do like the text you sent my professer Jets earlier.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: What tell people, let's go an award it is? What
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: was the text tell people?
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 9: The text was.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: Go for it?
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: John.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 9: All right, let me see here. Let me look at
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 9: my text. Because I've been very popular of many people.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 9: All I did was all I saw. I saw that
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 9: there was you know, of course, and I don't care.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 9: I hate when people say it's too let we start
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 9: talking about this. It's week We just finished Week nine.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 9: So in the NFC right now, one seed would be Philly,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 9: two seven would be Bucks and Lions, the four or
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 9: five would be Packers and Rams, and oh look at this,
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 9: the three six seed. If the season ended today, which
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 9: it doesn't, who cares. We have to talk about things today.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 9: The three six matchup is Seahawks forty nine ers. Of course,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 9: Seahawks is the three forty nine ers as the six
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 9: rematch of week one would be the playoffs seating right now?
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 9: Three six? How great would that be a playoff game?
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: Again, I'm telling you right now, we don't want that here.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: Nobody wants that here. That would cause so much stress,
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: would be so much stress. Oh my god, can you
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: imagine a Seahawks, a Seahawks forty nine ers playoff game
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: with lund? All, lord, I welcome, come into town. Hair,
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: you got to come to town.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 4: Come down to have to play.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 9: I've walked there for.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: That cal purple sheet and do your stuff here for
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: Pro Football wire and be perfect. All right, Yeah, we
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: gotta do it. You gotta do that.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be that's gonna be a thing.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 9: And here's the thing too, they're so banked up. Like
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 9: you said, there's certain teams you just won't want to see,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 9: Like you don't want to see inner division teams in
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 9: the playoffs, especially early. You know, you're just like after
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 9: the season Seattle is going to have right now because
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 9: they're scheduled and you know this, you've been talking about schedule.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 9: The rest of it looks good. You know, all those
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 9: kind of things. I mean, injuries happened, so you know,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 9: Ernest Jones, those kind of things. But man, things are
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 9: setting up really well. You would not want to see
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 9: it at forty nine ers just just because of the
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 9: history of it.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: Right, I'm just looking through here. The last two times
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: they've been in the playoffs, we get to a break
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, that would be the forty nine ers
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty ye. The Rams. The last two times they've
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: been the playoffs has been division rivals. And yes they
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: lost both those wildcard games. Okay, tell people.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 9: Should have run the Rams game.
• 1:02:26

  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, yeah, tell it to our scoreboard.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: That would be a good thing. By the way, as
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: long as you're not taking Eagles Packers, we're good. That's
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: the Monday night game. Just as an FYI, I looked
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: it up.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 3: I've been extra careful since then. I made a mistake.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: No, no, I'm just I'm just you know, all.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: Right, this one, all right?
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: What we got? What we got?
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 5: Macdeb in the middle of everything.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: I am going against New York once.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 5: Again, okay, And it's okay because I am very confident
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 5: in this pick. I'm taking Chicago minus three and a
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 5: half as they face the Giants. They host the Giants too,
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 5: so this is in Chicago, okay, and Chicago minus three
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 5: and a half. I don't think that the Giants are
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 5: going to come close to covering in this one. And
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 5: it's not like I'm some huge Chicago pan either. I
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 5: just think that the Giants are bad they've pulled off
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: some feats before. But I did pick the Niners last
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 5: week against the Giants. Niners were I think only a two.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 3: And a half point favorite last week with my pick
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 3: hold on.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 2: Oh yep, so give me the pickroll book again.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 5: Sorry, yes, I am correct. That was my pick. So
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 5: my pick is the Bears Bears minus three.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 2: And a half minus three and a half Bears at
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: home against Giants Fact four nine four to five one.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: If you agree, if you disagree, Fiction four nine four
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: to five one, try to win one thousand dollars weekly prize,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars grand prize, the ten thousand dollars grand prize.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: If you're in it, you know you're in it. If
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: you're just joining us for the first time, then you're
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: not in it.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 4: Right for the.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 3: Grand prize, we could still win a thousand.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: Everyone is in it for every week someone wins a
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars, and all you need is one count them
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: one correct pick of factor fiction. So the Bears minus
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: three and a half at home the five and three
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 2: Bears against the two and seven Giants at Soldier Field.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 2: That is a ten am game in the Pacific time
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: zone on Sunday, Morning Bears minus five and a half
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 2: or three and a half sorright Bears minus three and
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: a half over the Giant. I like to pick. I
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: think that's a very safe pick, to be honest with,
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: scatterbo out for the year.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 5: I'm a little scared these days, so's I go with this.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: I say that's a safe pick. There's no such thing
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: as a damn safe pick there. I don't think there
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: is a year.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 5: I picked the Jets a couple of weeks ago, okay,
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 5: and that was a safe pick, and then they came
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 5: roaring back, roaring back a ridiculous fashion.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: I go with you on that one, considering I lost,
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 2: you know, my little Survivor league too, so not fun.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: I oh yeah, because you at the Bengals.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well that was a that was on me. I
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: should never have trusted the Bengals. That was just stupid
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: on my part.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 5: So I think trusting the Jets and the Bengals might
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 5: be on the same level.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but I'm pretty confident in this one again. Chicago
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 5: minus three and a half against the Giants, and someone
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 5: just texted in OMG the Bears.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 3: I'm like, OMG, the Giants.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: Well, the Beres are five and three, sound like they're yeah.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 3: And there's Scataboolus Giants.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: The Bears are a half game or a tiebreaker out
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 2: of a playoff spot right now, like you've got the
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: mine at five and three. They're eighth in the NFC

• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: And define a restaurant that is dedicated for that type
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 2: of stuff. It's hard to find. So just kudos, do
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: you get I think you have a family member, right, sisters.

  Speaker 11: Gluten intolerance not not quite the the seal that crop,
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 11: but we we get compliments on on the offerings for that.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 11: It's it's big. About seventy percent of our menu is
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 11: actually gluten free.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: Wow, and that's a huge.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 11: Sorry about the chowder is we started researching, okay, what
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 11: how do we get ways to get further down the
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 11: to make it gluten free. Well, we finally perfected the recipe.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 11: It took us a couple of years and we actually
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 11: introduced it into the restaurants for almost a year before
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 11: telling anybody really it was glute free, because back then
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 11: you say glute free and everybody is like I don yeah,
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 11: it tastes even for a signature them like that.
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 10: We had to make sure that it writes it's the
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 10: best chowder I've ever had, And they're not just paying
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 10: me to say that. By the way, I really actually
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 10: believe that that it is the best chowder I've ever had.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 10: But I got the best chowder on the planet. Well,
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 10: the Seattle Chowder Cookoff Champion, which you've heard me do
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 10: those commercial spots. They were told to get the hell
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 10: out because nobody could win, so they had to quit.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: That is, I don't listen to him much when he
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: talks about Dukes.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 4: I'll listen to that.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 2: Usually when he speaks, I usually turn the radio off
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 2: or wait till.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 4: The favorite thing on the menu.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 10: Because you you grew up with this, right Like, I mean,
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 10: I could see a guy like you who was a
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 10: little kid running around a kitchen somewhere with dad. How
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 10: you know, maybe at some point in time you want
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 10: to kind of have a little variety, Dad, take me
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 10: to Jack in the box whatever. I'm tired of having
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 10: all this great chowder. But what's your what's your favorite
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 10: thing on the Duke's menu right now?
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 11: I mean, I'm a big fan of our salmon. It's
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 11: it's not easy to do the sourcing and just the
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 11: way that we handle it all the.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: Way through the process. But I probably go to as
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: Our a grassped cheeseburger and I wow.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 11: Friends, wow, swear, they say, listen, I know you're a
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 11: seafood restaurant. Every time I go there, I just cannot
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 11: order anything else other than the burger.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 12: Okay, so next time he comes in ribs and grass
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 12: fed cheeseburger, salmon. Yeah, that's fine, all of that. I think,
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 12: just once a week. Once a week.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 4: How many menu items do you have, honestly, like ballpark?
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 10: Maybe one hundred on the s Okay, So for the
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 10: next seventy weeks, just pop on by on a Tuesday
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 10: or a Wednesday.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 4: We'll try something new every week.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 2: I like that.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not gonna whine about it.
• 1:16:46
