Speaker 1: a t n video At six pm Pacific, nine pm Eastern.
Speaker 1: Coming up on today's show, the latest in the coaching news,
Speaker 1: including Mike Mularkey, who wasn't as safe as many people thought.
Speaker 1: Also coming up, Oh yeah, it's been a while. It's
Speaker 1: been two years actually, and it's time to bring it
Speaker 1: back back, the Conference Championship Weekend version edition of Overly
Speaker 1: Confident Bozos. It's been so long. I I was not
Speaker 1: aware of this segment ever even existed, and I thought
Speaker 1: it was just my bad memory. But I was not
Speaker 1: even involved, which is very barely. It's bad. You were
Speaker 1: not you were not president. The second was excellent, by
Speaker 1: the way. I don't know if there's any correlation between
Speaker 1: the two. And finally, the mail bag, the old E
Speaker 1: T N mail bag, we're gonna hit. We have not
Speaker 1: done that in a while, and we got Colleen, and
Speaker 1: the goal is to get Colleen and the entire show
Speaker 1: for the whole mail bag and everything, so we might
Speaker 1: as well. We gotta keep moving the good news though.
Speaker 1: Next week I don't have a meeting. So the Steelers,
Speaker 1: why they're they're they're taking a break on the power
Speaker 1: rankings when it's down to the final two, taking a
Speaker 1: two week hiatus and then we're back after the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: You're back after this What are you possibly ranking at
Speaker 1: that point? No, it's a big reveal to find out
Speaker 1: who is on top of the NFL power rankings after
Speaker 1: the Super h You know, I like scorn for this operation.
Speaker 1: There's no boundaries at this point to start. It's unhinged,
Speaker 1: unhinged condescension towards this NFL network product. Now it is
Speaker 1: absolutely true, defend your show. No, it's listen. We will
Speaker 1: be ranking until they tell us to stop ranking. And
Speaker 1: Greg's like, how come I don't have a show? Well, Greg,
Speaker 1: because you're a nice little writer and you do a
Speaker 1: little pot show and that's who we are. And is
Speaker 1: it you're laying all right, we're not superstars like Colleen,
Speaker 1: stop it we go my on Today, money spilling out
Speaker 1: of her pockets. Do something news. I ain't got too
Speaker 1: much to say, but y'all make sure you'll bring that
Speaker 1: same energy'all here next week and the weekend we're going
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. Hey, we're gonna win it, he said.
Speaker 1: The leading dog. That's Jalen Ramsey. Love this Jaguar team. Mark,
Speaker 1: You're you're falling in love with them? Not really speaking
Speaker 1: of lanes usually like the swaggering juggernaut type exercise, the
Speaker 1: flash that I like what they I like who they've eliminated,
Speaker 1: that's what I like about them. That makes sense. Well,
Speaker 1: the Patriots, as you know, get a chance to beat
Speaker 1: two af C South teams at home in the playoffs
Speaker 1: to go to another super Bowl. Uh. The one that
Speaker 1: they eliminated last week was the Titoons, who of course
Speaker 1: upset the Chiefs in the wild card round. Uh. Right
Speaker 1: before that game, swirling reports that Mike Malarkey was done.
Speaker 1: They win the Chiefs game, and we remarked at that time,
Speaker 1: this is a catch twenty two situation for the Titans,
Speaker 1: who didn't seem to love Malarkey and envision of future,
Speaker 1: and now they felt they were boxed in. They give
Speaker 1: him a vote of confidence, they get killed predictably of
Speaker 1: the Patriots, and then like twenty four hours later, it's
Speaker 1: announced that the two sides are parting ways. Greg. Uh,
Speaker 1: it'll start with you on this one. Was this is
Speaker 1: ample as that you think the Titans, this is always
Speaker 1: the plan and they just had to during that ramp
Speaker 1: up to the divisional playoffs, they could not put out
Speaker 1: anything other than we support our coach to eliminate distractions,
Speaker 1: but they're always going to dub them if you lost.
Speaker 1: I think there were different agendas inside that building that
Speaker 1: had different plans. So I think the general manager, John Robinson,
Speaker 1: reading between the lines, ultimately one a power struggle, So
Speaker 1: maybe he never gave up on changing out coaches. I
Speaker 1: don't believe that the owner of the team, or the
Speaker 1: controlling owner, Amy Strunk, who released a statement just eight
Speaker 1: nine days or eight days before they fired Mike Malarkey,
Speaker 1: that Mike Malarkey is our coach. It's her quotes, it's
Speaker 1: her statement, He's going to be our coach into the future.
Speaker 1: I don't believe that at that moment she thought there
Speaker 1: was any chance that Mike Malarkey was going to get fired.
Speaker 1: I have never seen this happen over the last fifteen
Speaker 1: twenty years. Maybe someone could find an example where a
Speaker 1: team makes a statement that that's our coach, and we
Speaker 1: later he's gone. But I think what happened was when
Speaker 1: they started talking about a possible extension, they put some
Speaker 1: conditions on Malarkey, like maybe certain hires, certain changes to
Speaker 1: his staff, in such a manner almost that maybe they
Speaker 1: knew he was gonna have to walk away, and he
Speaker 1: did and they ended up partying ways, which to me,
Speaker 1: that's the same as firing him. It's just a nice
Speaker 1: way to say coming out of it. Ian Rapp Report
Speaker 1: reported that Josh McDaniels looked at the Titans job as
Speaker 1: a preferred landing spot to what else was out there,
Speaker 1: but by day's end, Josh McDaniels linked to the Cult.
Speaker 1: So I wonder, if you're John Robinson, you watched Ma
Speaker 1: Patricia go to Detroit and if it, if it sticks,
Speaker 1: and McDaniels goes to the cult, sounds like it's happening.
Speaker 1: You're suddenly were the guy that was linked to both
Speaker 1: of these Patriots coordinators. You don't have either potentially, and
Speaker 1: you're starting from scratch trying to find the right candidate. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that's with a team where Marcus Mariota he took
Speaker 1: a step back. I mean, if you're Mike Malarkey, you
Speaker 1: go into Kansas City, you win a playoff game, that
Speaker 1: doesn't even change, that doesn't even of your job. But
Speaker 1: the fact that he didn't even give Derrick Henry like
Speaker 1: the main shot this year, there were so many different
Speaker 1: things that happened, and and the fact that Mariota has regressed.
Speaker 1: They sort of had to hit the reset button, and
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means for Mariota going forward
Speaker 1: to It's a tricky situation. I think the Tyitoons were
Speaker 1: in a tough spot. I think ultimately they're making the
Speaker 1: right decision um by getting out of a marriage that
Speaker 1: they're unhappy with, especially during a time where they can
Speaker 1: be They're not there yet. We talked about it on Sunday.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pile on, but they clearly were not
Speaker 1: up to the level near the Patriots or really any
Speaker 1: of the other teams in the mix. It felt like,
Speaker 1: now you can go and get somebody that can coach
Speaker 1: up Mariota and maybe get the most out of him
Speaker 1: as the enters year four. I think it makes sense,
Speaker 1: and yet it also points out how how brutally tough
Speaker 1: that business is because he took over. Remember how he
Speaker 1: got the job was as an interim coach who won
Speaker 1: a couple of games he took He took over a
Speaker 1: team that had one win at the time he took over,
Speaker 1: and then they ended up three and thirteen. They had
Speaker 1: won five games combined in two seasons. In his two
Speaker 1: full seasons they went nine and seven. Like you know,
Speaker 1: other coaches do that and you think they're mentioned for
Speaker 1: Coach of the Year, and I've been I've buried Malarkey
Speaker 1: as much as anyone. I think it's the right move
Speaker 1: for Mariota, but it also shows just how inherently the
Speaker 1: deck is stacked against the players. Some of the players
Speaker 1: even buried him too during the year. When you have
Speaker 1: j Walker saying sometimes you gotta overcome coaching. It could
Speaker 1: be the end of Dick Lebo too as a defensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: We could see if he could get a job elsewhere.
Speaker 1: Most likely he won't be back in Tennessee's eighty years old,
Speaker 1: so that would be a big factor to the defense
Speaker 1: played very well. I wonder if John d. Philippo could
Speaker 1: could wind up in the mix here because one of
Speaker 1: the issues they talked about when Malarkey was someone that
Speaker 1: they thought might be gone after the season was player developments.
Speaker 1: A lot of young players on offense and it wasn't happening.
Speaker 1: That's a specific type of coaching the staff. I think
Speaker 1: Dick Lebo probably is good at developing players. I mean
Speaker 1: the history would tell you absolutely, but on offense not
Speaker 1: so much. As a survival general survival all these coaches.
Speaker 1: Mike Malarkey's gonna have another job. Literally, that's my hottest
Speaker 1: coordinator last week. Listen, he's in great shape. It's also
Speaker 1: keeping Dick in the conversation. A lot of people aren't
Speaker 1: given that name out anymore. That's absolutely true. He's a survivor.
Speaker 1: It's Hall of Fame player. I mean, there haven't been
Speaker 1: many like Dick Lebo in NFL history. He's one of
Speaker 1: a kind, one out the New York Giants. The New
Speaker 1: York Giants were slowly losing Dan's second zeroed in on
Speaker 1: their new head coach. I want to see Mark hosts
Speaker 1: the show at the end of the show and at
Speaker 1: the corner and Mark or I'm just like talking to
Speaker 1: myself in a wall. Well, that's already we already experiencing that. Um,
Speaker 1: that's being mean to me. Sorry, I'm having fun with you.
Speaker 1: You're mean. Rap Sheet reported Monday that a Big Blue
Speaker 1: to hire Vikings offensive coordinator Pat Shermer as the team's
Speaker 1: new head coach. Um Shermer, of course, cannot negotiate or
Speaker 1: signed with the Giants until the Bikes are eliminated from
Speaker 1: the playoffs, which you know who knows could be a
Speaker 1: few weeks wore that happens. Uh Shermer fifty two years old.
Speaker 1: Obviously it's a good gig when you are the guy
Speaker 1: behind Case Keenum's rise, and not just case Keenum, but
Speaker 1: how the Vikings were able to overcome the loss of
Speaker 1: their dynamic young rookie running back and all the things
Speaker 1: they've accomplished this year up in Minnesota. So Shermer lands
Speaker 1: a second job, Colleen, he flunked out with the Browns,
Speaker 1: but everyone is flunked out with the Browns. Now he
Speaker 1: gets to start over with one of the prestige franchises
Speaker 1: in the league. Yeah. And it wasn't even just this
Speaker 1: year that he had his success um with quarterbacks. I mean,
Speaker 1: you look at last season what he was able to
Speaker 1: do with Sam Bradford when Bradford was just dealt there
Speaker 1: at last minute before the season began, and then he
Speaker 1: was in Philadelphia with Nick Foles when Nick Foles had
Speaker 1: that everybody talks about. But I wonder what this means
Speaker 1: for the quarterback position in New York if he does
Speaker 1: in fact go to New York, if they end up
Speaker 1: keeping Eli Manning. We know Pat Shermer runs a lot
Speaker 1: of West Coast things, and so that would work up there.
Speaker 1: But I wonder what they do and maybe maybe even
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater comes over. I mean, who knows, could but
Speaker 1: they don't really have a whole lot of money to spend.
Speaker 1: But the two big knocks that I recall was Shermer
Speaker 1: and Cleveland. One that there were people watching that offense
Speaker 1: on a week to week basis, analysts and people that
Speaker 1: it used to be in the league that could decide,
Speaker 1: could tell what the play was before the snap, like
Speaker 1: nine of the time, that his offense was deemed utterly predictable,
Speaker 1: and the results showed. The second thing was your coordinator
Speaker 1: great when your head coach is a lot of other
Speaker 1: work to do, and your persona and how you work
Speaker 1: with the with the media. He did not get a
Speaker 1: passing grade on that front either, and he was just
Speaker 1: I think that he had a trouble connecting with some
Speaker 1: players too. A good guy by all sense, has NFL lineage,
Speaker 1: so I think he's grown a lot though, from the
Speaker 1: time he left Cleveland deciding to go work with Chip
Speaker 1: Kelly and what he's done since. Second time hires make
Speaker 1: a lot of sense because you'll learn a lot from
Speaker 1: what what went wrong the first time I like to hire.
Speaker 1: I think that it's interesting the Giants, who are thought
Speaker 1: of as this great organization and for a lot of
Speaker 1: reasons that they are. Ultimately I think they chose Shermer. Now, however,
Speaker 1: this is getting out through the media because they had
Speaker 1: three finalists and this was reported widely. Number one, it
Speaker 1: was reported the New York Daily News that it was
Speaker 1: going to be Matt Patricia, but it became clear that
Speaker 1: Matt Patricia preferred the Lions over the Giants. Josh McDaniels
Speaker 1: was the other finalist of the three. Seemed like he
Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily going to be a match and they were
Speaker 1: worried about losing out on all three of their finalists.
Speaker 1: That the two Patriots. It just didn't end up being
Speaker 1: a good mix. Maybe they didn't want the job because
Speaker 1: of Dave Gettleman and they felt more comfortable with some
Speaker 1: of the other general managers out there, which makes total sense,
Speaker 1: and they kind of had to make sure they got
Speaker 1: Shermer before he possibly took the Cardinals job. It was
Speaker 1: ultimately their third Joe, I mean, Patricia McDaniels are smart
Speaker 1: enough to say, look at the Giants, are great organization.
Speaker 1: I think Belichick would tell them go where the ownership
Speaker 1: is good. That's a big Belichick thing. But Matthew Stafford
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck versus total fill in the blank situation for
Speaker 1: the Giants and their body what I mean they have
Speaker 1: a second overall? Yeah, and that, but that, but that that,
Speaker 1: that's a roll of the dice too. I think it's relationship.
Speaker 1: Patricia and Dan and Bob Quinn know each other, worked
Speaker 1: together for a long time. And then McDaniels he didn't.
Speaker 1: He never worked with Chris Ballard, but the reports are
Speaker 1: that he has a pretty close relationship with the GM
Speaker 1: and uh, when you got a chance to work with
Speaker 1: all the Ballard, yeah, you gotta do it. You have
Speaker 1: to do it absolutely. What's your favorite type of frogs? Um?
Speaker 1: Did you guys see It's been floating around the internet
Speaker 1: today the photo of presumably younger Matt Patricia clean shaven
Speaker 1: only through your Twitter that was your hottest coach? Hello dimples.
Speaker 1: By the way, quote unquote, geeked that that Patricia picture
Speaker 1: looked like it was taken before a lot of rough
Speaker 1: New England winter set in, Like he looks like a
Speaker 1: different man. I'm saying, did I stand by my choice
Speaker 1: of hottest coordinator after seeing him. I hope he would
Speaker 1: hope one week wouldn't shake that that determination. I'm completely
Speaker 1: checked out and I'm just searching for pictures. Twit everybody
Speaker 1: do it moving. You're actually in the middle of a
Speaker 1: show calling. By the way, um Sean Payton, who is
Speaker 1: one of the great villains in the NFL. Uh. And
Speaker 1: I say that in a nice way. I like that
Speaker 1: he's evil and um, he's kind of like the Bud Kilmer.
Speaker 1: If you remember Varsity Blues of the NFL. Uh. We
Speaker 1: remember a few weeks ago when the Saints were playing
Speaker 1: a key divisional matchup against the Falcons. At one point,
Speaker 1: Peyton did a choke sign to about maybe it's DeVonta Freeman.
Speaker 1: Why does that? But yeah, uh in reference of course
Speaker 1: three in the Super Bowl. Well, uh, Peyton now did
Speaker 1: himself at the end of the end, the guys feeling
Speaker 1: himself he's got bits. Uh. Well uh, he really outdid
Speaker 1: himself on Sunday in the final twenty seconds or so
Speaker 1: of the Saints heartbreaking final second lost to the Vikings. Uh.
Speaker 1: He was he turned with his back facing the field
Speaker 1: towards the crowd at the US Bank Stadium and started
Speaker 1: doing the skull. I can't believe he collap and mocking
Speaker 1: way and people caught there was photos of it, and
Speaker 1: it became a thing. And then uh Peyton owned up
Speaker 1: to it, which is good that I even heard from
Speaker 1: because I actually was wondering yesterday did anyone seen or
Speaker 1: heard from Sean Payton since that last play of the
Speaker 1: game on Sunday? But he did his two normal Sunday
Speaker 1: and then Mondays. A welfare check would not have been
Speaker 1: out of line after what happened. His his quote was
Speaker 1: there was just a group of fans. It was good
Speaker 1: playoff fund and I agree. Somebody on Twitter, somebody in
Speaker 1: their feelings, was like, how dare you come after fans
Speaker 1: as a coach? Is like contdown? Someone was outraged about
Speaker 1: I like, I I'm with you that. I like how
Speaker 1: Sean Payton has an edge that he is. He is
Speaker 1: somewhat unlikable, but we need I like having those characters
Speaker 1: in the league. He's just own. He is just he's
Speaker 1: allowing one thing about it. When did this happen? Was
Speaker 1: it during It must have been during the time out
Speaker 1: because that game was never close to being over. I
Speaker 1: mean even like it wouldn't have been like if if
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs caught that pass and he was just pushed
Speaker 1: out of boundary. They're kicking a field goal to win it,
Speaker 1: So you would think Sean Payton is as locked in
Speaker 1: as possible trying to get his team. And you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I know it wasn't over by any stretch,
Speaker 1: but didn't kind of feel it was over in those
Speaker 1: couple of plays before the Digs play, and that might
Speaker 1: have been not after the you know, but you're right,
Speaker 1: but not after the twenty yard throw by Keenom to
Speaker 1: start that drive, which is kind of gonna get forgotten.
Speaker 1: That was a really nice throw to start that drive.
Speaker 1: They they had a first and what twenty or something like,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Can you imagine Todd bolsting that one
Speaker 1: thing on Sean Payton. We noticed that Belichick to the
Speaker 1: crowd before, not at all Todd. Sean Payton a couple
Speaker 1: of years ago was jacked. Yea guy who was on
Speaker 1: a massive fitness kick and super jacked, and not so
Speaker 1: much anymore. He's wearing the little grandfather glasses on the sideline.
Speaker 1: I just there's a lot of transition happening, what is happening?
Speaker 1: Wondering why why did he have to suddenly like why
Speaker 1: did he get off his little get jack routine. It
Speaker 1: was a good look for him, and I don't you know,
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk out of school here. I
Speaker 1: think he might have been newly single at the time.
Speaker 1: That would explain it. He's like, I'm gonna be a
Speaker 1: big Papa pump now that I'm single, and then he
Speaker 1: probably may be settled down. I don't know his personal life.
Speaker 1: Also this time of year, at this point in the season,
Speaker 1: it's it's tough what we were actively discussing this and
Speaker 1: me along with other people who are in the studio
Speaker 1: four million people listening. That's well, I don't I don't
Speaker 1: hide my conversations from anyone. Well, you're you're better man
Speaker 1: than me. I'll say that. Finally in the news. Finally
Speaker 1: in the news, Um, Greg uh, Greg, who's struggled all
Speaker 1: throughout his time here at NFL Media with losing stuff.
Speaker 1: Just the shout out to Greg's phone which was left
Speaker 1: behind in a cab in New Orleans. And now we're
Speaker 1: up to two departed laptops that had water or tea spills.
Speaker 1: That was both five years ago when I lived the
Speaker 1: phone that that he dropped outside of his carp destroyer
Speaker 1: and now another back and now another phone that is
Speaker 1: still somewhere in New Orleans. NFL security had to shut
Speaker 1: it down according to right, Yeah, that's their protocol. When
Speaker 1: you reported missing, they just said, no one can Did
Speaker 1: this happen like late at night or something? I mean,
Speaker 1: I stay I stayed up all night, all night or sober,
Speaker 1: and then took a cab to the airport at about
Speaker 1: five in the morning or a six A or a
Speaker 1: four thirty in the morning for six a flight and
Speaker 1: left here. So I'm blaming. Remember you've got you've got
Speaker 1: credit cards all nighter in New Orleans sober. That's not
Speaker 1: the way to do new work, now, I know, But
Speaker 1: I was working. I'm just saying that that wasn't an impact.
Speaker 1: It didn't have any impact. Remember in after nine eleven,
Speaker 1: when like Osama bin Laden was the number one fugitive
Speaker 1: of all time in the United States. There is a
Speaker 1: picture of Greg's face and the I D I T.
Speaker 1: Department here, that's how he's viewed. Just a total monster
Speaker 1: with no conscience and he just he just just goes
Speaker 1: through materials I was starting to wonder how true that was,
Speaker 1: because I could not get a response, uh to emails
Speaker 1: or phone calls for multiple days, and so finally I
Speaker 1: just went over there myself. I don't know if that's
Speaker 1: a that's allowed to just do like a drop drop by,
Speaker 1: and I just sort of covered uncomfortably while he dealt, Well,
Speaker 1: someone dealt with other callers and other people. You're on
Speaker 1: the naughty lit everybody's everybody's like I sent an email.
Speaker 1: That's what Keith Pansas taught me. You go look that
Speaker 1: man in the eyes, face to face, and you tell
Speaker 1: them how you feel you could be a female works
Speaker 1: because I got another phone. Now maybe for the next
Speaker 1: what a human victory? That's what's happening in the nude,
Speaker 1: that's in the where you're going with that? All right,
Speaker 1: here we go, let's get into it. Um It is
Speaker 1: the Championship Week edition of Overly Confident Bozos, in which
Speaker 1: each of us UH take one team involved in the
Speaker 1: Championship weekend and we get nineties seconds uninterrupted to make
Speaker 1: a case why there is no chance that team will
Speaker 1: not emerge from Sunday's game victorious, and just a little
Speaker 1: breakdown of who's talking who Colleen's gonna get us going
Speaker 1: with her hometown eiggles. Uh, Mark, you're gonna be talking
Speaker 1: up the Jaguars, Yes, I will right, you will be
Speaker 1: vouching for the vikings of Minnesota. Okay, and I am
Speaker 1: repping the throne of ease. I'm sure that'll be done
Speaker 1: with an air of professionals and great unbiased analysis. Um
Speaker 1: all right, So and lindsay, are you aware of the
Speaker 1: responsibilities of the producers for this segment? Okay, So what
Speaker 1: we're gonna need from you is just a clock. Maybe
Speaker 1: give us a at thirty seconds heads up to the
Speaker 1: individual and also give him five seconds to so they
Speaker 1: know it's going to y thirty and five? Is that
Speaker 1: an unorthodox all right? Sure? Whatever about thirty two and
Speaker 1: then nine? If we finish our argument before ninety seconds,
Speaker 1: do we'd have to fill the buster? I know I
Speaker 1: was gonna say, I might be done at sixty and
Speaker 1: no interrupting, Okay, thirty two and nine, lindsay, have that
Speaker 1: thirty seconds to use however you want, Sampi baby, Okay,
Speaker 1: So I could give some like Austie open announsis predictions.
Speaker 1: I mean that would be I would feel like that
Speaker 1: would be unfair to the Vikings, but if you can.
Speaker 1: I know, it's the biggest sports event in the world.
Speaker 1: This is something I should have prepared for. But I'm ready.
Speaker 1: I was like, we're gonna do likability factors, right, I
Speaker 1: was already on the check show. All right, this is
Speaker 1: why you shouldn't be doing check This is why I
Speaker 1: am a professional. Here we can all right here, bendzy,
Speaker 1: let her know when it starts. I've got a timer. Okay,
Speaker 1: let her know what. And if this isn't like a
Speaker 1: pep talk or you are really confident, over confident, Okay, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: we're on. Okay, here we go. Listen. The Eagles this week.
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're underdogs or not to the
Speaker 1: but okay, great. I feel like it's better that they
Speaker 1: are underdogs at this point because yeah, and Greg, you
Speaker 1: can't interrupt me again. Thanks, because this is how they
Speaker 1: perform at their best as underdogs with a chip on
Speaker 1: their shoulder. Apparently, Fletcher Cox said before that they have
Speaker 1: been doubted all season long. Now, when Carson Wentz was there,
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody was really doubting them. But now
Speaker 1: they are being doubted, and that is when they play
Speaker 1: their best. Frank Reich, he said that this Vikings team
Speaker 1: that they're facing this week has the best defense that
Speaker 1: they're going to see all season. And Nick Foles, a
Speaker 1: lot of people were not confident in him. He got
Speaker 1: it done in the second half of that game. First
Speaker 1: half was not pretty at all. I was sick after
Speaker 1: the first half of that game. But the second half
Speaker 1: it was great play calling Nick Foles. He calmed down
Speaker 1: a little bit and they took advantage of what makes
Speaker 1: that team good. It's all of the players working together.
Speaker 1: You don't have one player that can really really stop laughing,
Speaker 1: they can really hurt you. It's all the players together.
Speaker 1: And they had a lot of r p o s.
Speaker 1: They simplified things for him him. Oh really, okay, great,
Speaker 1: you got this. The defense is going to win you
Speaker 1: the game. Run the ball, use that defense, and home
Speaker 1: field advantage is going to take you home. I better
Speaker 1: see a ton of dog masks out there this week.
Speaker 1: I'm going to the game and I can't wait for this.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to watch the Eagles win. Their offensive
Speaker 1: line they played great, and the defense in the second
Speaker 1: quarter that game last week, that's when they started heating
Speaker 1: up we're gonna need them to start eating up at
Speaker 1: the firth quarter of well done. Are you going to
Speaker 1: be allowed into the stadium to watch the game this time? Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm credentialed. Good victory. Yeah all right. I thought that
Speaker 1: was a very good case for the for the very solid,
Speaker 1: very solid, and I wasn't a great at timing it.
Speaker 1: I had other things like got to I thought I
Speaker 1: needed to do were I would say, you were a
Speaker 1: little bit overly confident, But that's that's to be a
Speaker 1: bozo on some level. Nelson agre is like the new
Speaker 1: Tyreek killd Any counter points to what Colleen said, Tom,
Speaker 1: I'm happy to let it ride. I thought it was
Speaker 1: a lot of my rebuttle is going to be in
Speaker 1: my vikings. Okay, that's gonna go. Yeah, I don't wanna.
Speaker 1: I don't want to step on alright, So I don't
Speaker 1: you want to throw it now to Greg? Okay, sure,
Speaker 1: sure if you want it, And I let me say that, yeah, Dan,
Speaker 1: thank you. Connie Teams scrambling. Let me um say to you, Colleen,
Speaker 1: Yes that you did. You did a nice job, but
Speaker 1: you're gonna be wrong. Okay, so your confidence is unfounded.
Speaker 1: I don't really care what you think. Dan my word? Alright, Greg,
Speaker 1: it is your rambling a little bit here, alright, Greg
Speaker 1: Rose withal okay, uh lindsay, I noticed that you went
Speaker 1: with thirty and tens at of thirty two and nine.
Speaker 1: But listen, that's your call, that's your decision. Back there, listen,
Speaker 1: I'll stand up, stand down. Whoa Okay, they will be
Speaker 1: a first time for that. All right, here we go.
Speaker 1: Now it is Greg's turn. All right, two words, Nick
Speaker 1: falls alright, five more words. Philly can not have nice things.
Speaker 1: That's six words. Colleen Wolf said earlier this season she
Speaker 1: didn't have a good feeling about the Eagles because she's
Speaker 1: an Eagles fan expects things to happen wrong in you
Speaker 1: know what, she was right, Carson wentz towards a c
Speaker 1: l and they haven't been the same since. And now
Speaker 1: who's showing up to this game in Philadelphia? Colleen Wolf, Well,
Speaker 1: that's a good sign for this Philadelphia, He goes, I
Speaker 1: don't so bad, Juju, you think the NFL is going
Speaker 1: to allow this Minnesota is now America's team. You think
Speaker 1: it was a coincidence that Marcus Williams missed that tackle.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. It's the illuminati of the NFL
Speaker 1: getting behind a great storyline home super Bowl. Isn't that
Speaker 1: going to be more fun? They even set up Sean
Speaker 1: Payton to do that whole skull chant to really build
Speaker 1: up this storylines. Oh my gosh, if I can have
Speaker 1: been They've been through a lot. Mike Zimmer with the
Speaker 1: eye surgeries, Teddy Bridgewaters injury case, Keenom getting cut from
Speaker 1: a million teams. This is a defense that has been
Speaker 1: together for three to four seasons. They know each other
Speaker 1: so well. They've been building to this moment. They've got
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford. That's the final recipe. He knows what's going on.
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford goes to Philly and he wins the game
Speaker 1: against the Eagles. That's the most Eagles way possible to lose.
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford does Sam Bradford case. Keendom goes down with
Speaker 1: an injury. Listen, I'm not gonna be a jinx here,
Speaker 1: all right, So don't make me a jinx. Don't paint
Speaker 1: me as a jinx. I like the the the bubbling
Speaker 1: up Greg Colleen heat, which every once in a while
Speaker 1: you get it and it's very rewarding. And I also
Speaker 1: like that Collie and is a legitimate Eagles fan and
Speaker 1: she's a little on edge right now and rightfully. So
Speaker 1: you have a chance to go to the super Bowl,
Speaker 1: you got a home game, you got the dog masks,
Speaker 1: and let's not sleep on the dog masks. By the way,
Speaker 1: that that was the point I wanted to make, like, um,
Speaker 1: what about if everyone wears these dog masks in the stadium?
Speaker 1: Would that be a positive or a negative in terms
Speaker 1: of highly frightening kind of like a black Mirror episode
Speaker 1: type thing, but also would muffle the cheers? So what's
Speaker 1: what's more important? Can you see through them that I
Speaker 1: can't breathe? Your cheers are muffled? Us have ever worn
Speaker 1: a dog mask? Right? I never have. I've worn those
Speaker 1: types of rubber late tech masks for they're not not
Speaker 1: very breathable. Hot um no, what we call the vision vision,
Speaker 1: But maybe the technology has come a long way since
Speaker 1: I don't know. If there's a lot of technology involved
Speaker 1: top of your head, then maybe you almost like finished
Speaker 1: as a crown like that. Okay, well you're gonna be there,
Speaker 1: so maybe you could spread the word, do not cover,
Speaker 1: do not muffle your voices, put the animal head on
Speaker 1: top of the human head. Please, Eagles fans. Eagles fans
Speaker 1: need to be full throated like they were last week,
Speaker 1: because I thought that played a huge, huge role in
Speaker 1: that game. Greg, that was highly confident. It was I'm
Speaker 1: so confident. All right, Mark, I don't like your confidence.
Speaker 1: Let's move to the all right, Jacksonville Jaguars time. Why
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. I'll tell you why you overconfident? Bozos? Did
Speaker 1: the clock start? Give me a little extra time? I
Speaker 1: like that game? Do I have game? Game? Whenever you're ready,
Speaker 1: we go. Mark's got to print out all right, I'll
Speaker 1: tell you why. Because the entire country has made a
Speaker 1: sport of trashing blake boardles on a weekly basis, dismissed, denounced,
Speaker 1: giggled at by roaming elitis and hobby horses nationwy, It's
Speaker 1: time for blake bordles to stand up and scatter, said
Speaker 1: how hobby horses into a trillion pieces little hobby horse
Speaker 1: body parts scattered all over the chilled Foxboro turf, Jacksonville
Speaker 1: marching against the precious Patriots on network television. Fourteen seconds left,
Speaker 1: Jaguar's ball, fourth down from the Patriots twenty two game
Speaker 1: on the line. Jacksonville trailing a lot of information. No
Speaker 1: time outs. They need a touchdown. Seven seconds, six seconds,
Speaker 1: quick snap. Bortles with the ball, dances away from Trey Flowers,
Speaker 1: rolls to his right, A blitzing Patrick Chung in his face.
Speaker 1: Bortles loss of dart just as he's hit. It drifts
Speaker 1: quietly through the Foxboro night. Sixty five thousand hyper entitled
Speaker 1: Patriots fans watching silence as the ball cycles towards the
Speaker 1: end zone through the arms of Malcolm Butler. No interception
Speaker 1: this time, bro and into the waiting hands of Tommy
Speaker 1: bohannan Jaguar. His win. Patriots stunned. Belichick retires, McDaniels and
Speaker 1: Patricia out the door. Tom Brady ops out of his contract.
Speaker 1: The deeply entitled Patriots fan base snapped in half like
Speaker 1: a twig. Blake Bortles changes the a f C forever.
Speaker 1: You gotta have the rest of your time. It's over.
Speaker 1: It didn't know Tom Brady had an option in his contract.
Speaker 1: He could just choose to opt out. He's gonna retire, breaking,
Speaker 1: He's gonna retire. He opted out, he said, he opted
Speaker 1: out of his contract. Uh, well, this is this is
Speaker 1: your chance. Mark, You know you came hard after the
Speaker 1: Patriots fan base a long time ago, Barstool Sports wound
Speaker 1: up calling you out for it, and now here's here's it.
Speaker 1: It's your chance, it for it to come to fruition
Speaker 1: in front of the home fans the Jaguars do it?
Speaker 1: Tell me, even you, Greg, a little part of you
Speaker 1: would love to see it. Love, No, I would you
Speaker 1: really need? There's more of a part of me probably
Speaker 1: than Patriots fans that wouldn't mind covering the Jaguars and
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. So that would be a small and
Speaker 1: that would be a small silver lining. But no, why
Speaker 1: would I love that? I love you know what I love?
Speaker 1: I love the idea. And I tweeted this yesterday. Even
Speaker 1: if the Jaguars lose on Sunday, let's send them to
Speaker 1: Media Night, I'm sure the great and just let them
Speaker 1: like complain and like make fun of people and just
Speaker 1: boast about what's gonna happen next year. Um, because you know,
Speaker 1: the Patriots at Media Night, no no offense, gig Ramsay
Speaker 1: at Media Night would be the most entertainment, That's what
Speaker 1: I mean. Like if the Jaguars were in the NFC,
Speaker 1: I would be rooting for the Jaguars. They're the most
Speaker 1: Every week they play, you never know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 1: They're compelling, They're just different than any NFL team we've
Speaker 1: seen in a while. I would just go back and
Speaker 1: like republished the features that we did on the Patriots
Speaker 1: last year. Three seasons ago, I did a story on
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick Sonny's still with the team. Just republished that
Speaker 1: up still valuable quotes. Really not a bad idea, I mean,
Speaker 1: just and we would give us the week to sneeze,
Speaker 1: settle down, and enjoy, I mean, deserves a second look.
Speaker 1: The definitely well with no updates. Just so let's just
Speaker 1: put it back out there same And by the way,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do three audio shows super Bowl Week, including
Speaker 1: our Super Bowl Sunday night show, the Ultimate Flagship Show,
Speaker 1: and a full video show that will air on on
Speaker 1: Friday that Connie Fox will be involved. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: won't have to leave for a meeting. I love it
Speaker 1: all right, speaking which, we gotta get get back to
Speaker 1: it now. Finally, the old Douser will deliver an impassioned
Speaker 1: fight for the Patriots to move on to another Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Stu it lindsay, Let's start here, how about this, no
Speaker 1: days all nod days off? How about this? Okay, that's good. Bill,
Speaker 1: You're fighting to my time. Now do your job. Ever
Speaker 1: hear of it. Dion Lewis sneaky superstar, Danny Amidala handsome White.
Speaker 1: This is his time of year. Speaking of White, James White,
Speaker 1: all that guys does. Score touchdowns in the Cruise, the Bowl,
Speaker 1: Gillette Stadium, the True Mall of America. Revenge, Revenge for
Speaker 1: de flake Gate, revenge for Spygate, revenge on the media
Speaker 1: man failing ESPN, fake news. They wrote a mean story
Speaker 1: about the Patriots, and now the whole squad is more
Speaker 1: motivated than ever. Relevant players that I think about this,
Speaker 1: relevant players that oppose the Patriots always have like a
Speaker 1: final destination curse. Leonard Fournette spraying his ancles Sunday car
Speaker 1: accident today Blake Portals built, Bill Bell, Jack Vers, Doug Moron,
Speaker 1: Pat Matt Patricia, and Josh McDaniel's Last Game. James Harrison
Speaker 1: Revenge Game, Alex Guerrero Revenge Game, Mark Wahlburg Revenge Game.
Speaker 1: Because no one messes with Boston and gets away with it.
Speaker 1: The movie Patriot Day, which finally gave us a proper
Speaker 1: vehicle to understand Boston's indomitable fighting spirit spirit, the Patriot way,
Speaker 1: the Patriot way, which teaches us the players should be
Speaker 1: not heard, but seen, used, then discarded. It's everything that
Speaker 1: the bash mouthy Jaguars are not nice. Win in Pittsburgh, Jaguars,
Speaker 1: how about some class New England autumns. The Pats have
Speaker 1: a tight end that literally cannot be covered. And the quarterback,
Speaker 1: how about the quarterback? Tom Brady? Tom Brady, tom Brady,
Speaker 1: tom Brady. A top five finish and Greg Rosenthal's playoff
Speaker 1: QB trustworthy rankings, five Super Bowl titles, seven straight conference
Speaker 1: title appearances, impossible to injure. Giselle, babe alert. He's playing
Speaker 1: the Jaguars when someone clearly didn't time out. This is there,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Jack the Blake Board, and Doug Marone keep
Speaker 1: in the words of another famous Boston celebrity, no one
Speaker 1: denies this. He's facing the Jaguars and they're all time
Speaker 1: defense that surrendered five forty five yards. Who said no
Speaker 1: one denies this? Bill Simmons, Steelers only still playing because
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's defense was almost impossibly worse. And finally, finally, your
Speaker 1: your next nineties seconds just Finally, the Patriots cannot wait
Speaker 1: to get back to the White House to see their
Speaker 1: good friend Donald Trump. Hey, Jaguas, you're fired winning blood light,
Speaker 1: I said, I love it. I thought I had. I
Speaker 1: was a tiled to a little more time because of
Speaker 1: the Belichick sound drop kind of cut into mind that
Speaker 1: three times times as much time sound drip with sound drop,
Speaker 1: you're entitled. Yeah, I'm moving away from Dan right now.
Speaker 1: She's a good one liner. She dropped a word of words,
Speaker 1: but said you're entitled. That's She's like, oh, yeah, you're entitled.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm an entitled white I thought you're gonna come
Speaker 1: back at me. Oh, that's fine. That's Colleen's opinion. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying that Greg and I agree with that. I
Speaker 1: know Greg feels that way. Well, you're trying to pretend
Speaker 1: to be an entitled Patriots fanning. I gotta work. Um.
Speaker 1: Anybody think I'm overly confident or properly confident or not confident,
Speaker 1: you have a Zolackeian level of confidence. I mean, of
Speaker 1: any of the three or four of us. You have
Speaker 1: the right to be overly confident about a team that
Speaker 1: probably will methodically mow everyone down and win. You had
Speaker 1: another Super Bowl. It's true, I don't know week out
Speaker 1: the week year after, Dangerous Team, Dangerous Team. All right,
Speaker 1: you can agree. He support for today's show comes from

Speaker 1: it's all about square space, all right. Before we go,
Speaker 1: it's time for a little shoulders of greatness presented by
Speaker 1: many shoulders. I feel like you need a trumpet drop there?
Speaker 1: Did you say? Head? And shoulders? There? And joulders? Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do a little mail back. You know who's
Speaker 1: got the greatness, the great shoulders. All of our listeners,
Speaker 1: oh my god, the best shoulders. Week after week they
Speaker 1: listened to this most most for old Johnny no shoulders
Speaker 1: and uh well, Indiana, Well Johnny shoulders got his reasons,
Speaker 1: um and uh So this week we present to you
Speaker 1: listeners the shoulders of greatness, and we will celebrate you
Speaker 1: by reading some of your questions that you sent in
Speaker 1: to our Twitter handle of course around the NFL, around
Speaker 1: own to the NFL. So let's go through him. We
Speaker 1: got a little bit more time with Connie Fox before
Speaker 1: a big PROD meeting, Little industry lark, little lingo. Let's
Speaker 1: start with Josh, who is the Broncos quarterback next year.
Speaker 1: We need definitive answers here, great show guys and gals. Uh, well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just throw an in case Keenum. Oh we
Speaker 1: know John Elway really likes him, and I don't know
Speaker 1: if he's gonna stay in Minnesota. The whole Pat Shermer
Speaker 1: to the Giants thing made me think that he's going
Speaker 1: to take either Sam Bradford or case Keenum with him there.
Speaker 1: So in Denver, I'm giving you Tyrod Taylor week one starter.
Speaker 1: I like Tyrod. I think a draft pick is they're
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna have to circle back and take another
Speaker 1: first round quarterback. I agree, But yeah, I would keep
Speaker 1: to play him. He's already proven. He was the most
Speaker 1: successful free agent quarter of all time. Kirk cut And
Speaker 1: I think was there some report that they wouldn't chase
Speaker 1: him out there. I don't care if there was or not.
Speaker 1: Um It just I could see always saying, ah, I'm
Speaker 1: not good at this developing quarterbacks thing. Let me go
Speaker 1: get a guy that I really like, and I'm going
Speaker 1: to give him a lot of money and I know
Speaker 1: how to woo him so ill. And I don't think
Speaker 1: there's been any reports shooting that down. I think there'll
Speaker 1: be a suitor. We love um, we love big Ben
Speaker 1: quotes in the media because he's fond of saying kind
Speaker 1: of silly things or throwing people under the bus when
Speaker 1: need be uh An old big Ben special here reports
Speaker 1: that it's not in the playbook for him to check
Speaker 1: into a quarterback sneak head asks cheesehead. I guess it
Speaker 1: is because there's a little cheese thing in front of
Speaker 1: it and then a hypen. Is big Ben really forbidden
Speaker 1: to check to a QB sneak? Do we believe that forbidden?
Speaker 1: No matter what the answer is, he is not so
Speaker 1: sid the lead trying to throw his offensive coordinator Todd
Speaker 1: Haley under the bus, who he not subtle doesn't get
Speaker 1: along with. I don't buy it that he's not allowed to.
Speaker 1: You're the guy out on the field with can players
Speaker 1: do things that coaches tell him not to. All the
Speaker 1: time you're holding the ball. If you say give me
Speaker 1: the ball, sometimes your teammates don't even need to know.
Speaker 1: You just jump. So how are you gonna do? I
Speaker 1: just don't buy that at all. Why would you take
Speaker 1: a play that is incredibly successful for many quarterbacks and
Speaker 1: someone like big Ben. Who's giant? The one thing that
Speaker 1: is one you already got on Cuban guy cannot scramble anymore.
Speaker 1: Large bend is what they call him. This next question
Speaker 1: is specifically for you. Some call him big gen, right. Um.
Speaker 1: Eric Gonzalez asks do you think Tom Cable was the
Speaker 1: best choice as offensive line coach for Oakland? I personally
Speaker 1: think Mike Tyson a pretty good job with that group. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, out on oranges to lane
Speaker 1: for Mark. Oh, it's for me. I'm until I said, Colleen,
Speaker 1: don't said specifically for you? Why pronouncer you did say
Speaker 1: for me? Um? Tom Cable good history running offensive lines
Speaker 1: except for a large chunk of time in Seattle. So
Speaker 1: but I want to let's get a little bit more
Speaker 1: into the nuance of office. Yeah, well, I listen, I
Speaker 1: think that. What about Tyst did you like in terms
Speaker 1: of his scheme last year in Oakland? I didn't like
Speaker 1: a whole lot of it. A thing he did not
Speaker 1: He did not do enough with the talent Tom Cable
Speaker 1: inherits more talent, Tye is going to be more of
Speaker 1: less general more schematically. Well, are they going to bring
Speaker 1: the zone blocking scheme there? Are you gonna stick with
Speaker 1: something different like Seattle likes to do with thing on offense?
Speaker 1: I've got nothing else, you know, you just get a
Speaker 1: couple of points. The wait, is he gonna get the zone?
Speaker 1: I like that? Up next, Ali at Colts Fan A
Speaker 1: A g asks how successful do you think Josh McDaniels
Speaker 1: and Andrew Lux partnership will be an indie if Colleen
Speaker 1: Luck is completely healthy? Oh, if he's completely healthy, yeah,
Speaker 1: then it's then it'll be great. But that's the that's
Speaker 1: the huge question mark right now. We have no idea
Speaker 1: what's going to happen with Andrew Luck, if he's going
Speaker 1: to be the same quarterback or not when he comes
Speaker 1: back and when he is actually going to come back,
Speaker 1: And how good will Josh McDaniels be with Tom Brady
Speaker 1: when Bell Belichick retires? Very good? You got anything after
Speaker 1: this season? You're saying, oh, yeah, well that's hanging out there.
Speaker 1: If Belichick just left, maybe Patricia sorry cults, uh, next question,
Speaker 1: This from be annoying to have Josh McDaniels like just
Speaker 1: beating up on the Patriots a year after year with
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck. You guys have like Brian Hoyer's cousin is
Speaker 1: your quarterback? By then? Where's cousin Charlie Hoyer? Uh? Next
Speaker 1: up is Eric Jensen at Eric eighteen Utah like a
Speaker 1: long time best album you listen to in two thousand
Speaker 1: seventeen album album and album? Oh you know what I
Speaker 1: really liked? U Michael Kanuka? He did it for big
Speaker 1: I just made that up. No, but if you watch
Speaker 1: Big Little Lies, that's his yeah, and he's got he's
Speaker 1: got a pretty good album. I agree with Colleen's answer.
Speaker 1: I will go with a tie between the War on
Speaker 1: Drugs album and the Lord album. Anybody listened to those?
Speaker 1: I love the record album. I think the Kendrick Lamar
Speaker 1: count is this year right, absolutely, I think is the
Speaker 1: right answer. But late entrant for me was Julian Baker
Speaker 1: turn Out the Lights, who I saw live and I
Speaker 1: will have to look into that artist. Moving on at
Speaker 1: Hunter Murphy one oh one. What NFL player would be
Speaker 1: the best to take on a fear and loathing style
Speaker 1: adventure to find the American Dream? This one's for you, Marcus.
Speaker 1: I knew you were going to be uncomfortable with music one,
Speaker 1: so I'm throwing you this. Not uncomfortable. I just like
Speaker 1: not gonna, you know, manufacture a fake answer. Ah. The
Speaker 1: first person that comes to mind is I mean he's
Speaker 1: probably not an act of player at this point. But
Speaker 1: Jake Cutler is the guy that I would want to
Speaker 1: kind of. I think he kind of doesn't really care
Speaker 1: like I do. Think he's he's done with football. He's
Speaker 1: not going to be overly worried about his conditioning. So
Speaker 1: we're talking about a fear and loathing. You are drug
Speaker 1: induced you. There's like beer bottles flying out of the car,
Speaker 1: there's no rules. Cutler is I think he actually would
Speaker 1: be to be honest, I think he I think he
Speaker 1: has a sour puss look on his face, but how
Speaker 1: in conversation he'd probably be fun. No, that sounds off off, Okay,
Speaker 1: the four heroes are on a deserted island. Jalen Ramsey,
Speaker 1: by the way, it would be a fun pick. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be good. Yes, I want to a lot
Speaker 1: of stubs. I think it's someone that's cool with the stuff.
Speaker 1: And Tonio Brown because I'm just an intention and I
Speaker 1: want as much media coverage as possible. He's a big
Speaker 1: time star and he knows how to get that. Just
Speaker 1: like entertainment Tonight, everything we post ground because no one
Speaker 1: thought about Ronse. I thought I thought about it. I
Speaker 1: thought it would Yeah, you have nothing left to say
Speaker 1: after will you talk about you want someone that can
Speaker 1: have a converse. I just don't. I think it might
Speaker 1: be just too intense though. Rad Wolf, another long time listener.
Speaker 1: The four heroes are on a deserted island. Dan Hans
Speaker 1: is what album fight each other? We're finally not getting
Speaker 1: those as much. Mark, what food would you bring? Greg?
Speaker 1: Which tennis player would you bring? West? Which fear would
Speaker 1: you bring? And Colleen? I was gonna say, because I
Speaker 1: have Wester's answer, you could pick any of those categories. Sure,
Speaker 1: I'll start with myself, Which album do you bring? That's tough.
Speaker 1: My favorite album of all time is Act Hungue Baby
Speaker 1: by You Too. But that's a little dark, so I'll
Speaker 1: go with a mid golden period of waste this Albumlet's
Speaker 1: go with what's the story Morning? Wow? That's a good
Speaker 1: one like that. So you're there, You're on the tent,
Speaker 1: and you're on this island potentially forever forever, so you
Speaker 1: better have something, all right? Then I'm taking I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go Sloan Stevens. I think you know if you're there forever.
Speaker 1: This could turn who knows. Who knows it's forever is
Speaker 1: a long time great tennis player. She won the US Open. Look,
Speaker 1: you're bringing a female tennis player, you're married, just that,
Speaker 1: just you're on this island. You're on this island forever.
Speaker 1: So that's great. Greg will quickly be killed if there's
Speaker 1: ae apocalyp Yeah, an engaging. I'm happy because all all
Speaker 1: respect to like the me too move and stuff. But
Speaker 1: I didn't want you to be like, oh, Ivan Lendel
Speaker 1: or something. Bring a lady if you're going on the island, right, well,
Speaker 1: actually that's very smart because you'd be we wouldn't just
Speaker 1: die out. You could, in theory, have children. Pretty hilarious,
Speaker 1: pretty smart. Like it all, it all works out, It
Speaker 1: all ends out. So minds for beer I would bring,
Speaker 1: I would bring the Wolf among Weeds. I p a
Speaker 1: Golden brewing and behind the glass Christian Anderson. He turned
Speaker 1: me onto this beer. He brought it into work for me,
Speaker 1: and it's still in my desk drawer, just a break
Speaker 1: glass in case of emergency beer drinking beer work. I'm
Speaker 1: not drinking it out. Work is just in my more
Speaker 1: just in case. West By the way. His answer was,
Speaker 1: let's go with he texted me, shiner Bach nice and
Speaker 1: easy thinking answer, iron Stock white Ale. But that's more
Speaker 1: for special occasions, not the main supply line. I'm a
Speaker 1: little in the weeds there, but I'm sure if you're
Speaker 1: a beer person, you know what that means. What was yours? Mark?
Speaker 1: I have food now? Question? Is it like I bring
Speaker 1: a box of food and it runs out in like
Speaker 1: three days, or I have a food item that constantly reproduces.
Speaker 1: It's constantly there. Let's go with that. I think that
Speaker 1: I would think of the whole group and I would
Speaker 1: go with um, like a flavorful rice, because I would
Speaker 1: imagine you guys would be like harpooning fish and you
Speaker 1: could have fish and rice. Oh, I'm imagining I'm alone
Speaker 1: on this island. I thought we're all alone? Are we
Speaker 1: together on the isisland. That's why I saying Greg will
Speaker 1: be killed. He brings, he brings it, brings in the
Speaker 1: tract a tennis player. We take him, we take them out. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I was thinking we were as a group.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of all of us. Rice, everyone can deal
Speaker 1: with it might be Oh, I gotta go late tune
Speaker 1: into the power ranking show to see if the Steelers
Speaker 1: rise or fell this week. It's three o'clock. It's on
Speaker 1: a three o'clock Pacific. Alright, good bye, there she goes.
Speaker 1: Oh here's the drama from Will Seistman. How did the
Speaker 1: heroes feel about the super contest winner? If you remember
Speaker 1: our subreddit super contest from September selling his tickets he
Speaker 1: won for rent money come back to us Reddit super
Speaker 1: Contest Rent is overrated? Is this true? I would need
Speaker 1: to see evidence of that. Well, there's no way. This
Speaker 1: is the first I've heard of it. He must have
Speaker 1: some reasons for believing it. Maybe it was on the
Speaker 1: message boards or whatnot. I I don't have a problem
Speaker 1: with it, though, I mean the NFL might have a
Speaker 1: problem with it, uh considering it was like an official
Speaker 1: I don't know the rules behind that, you know, giving
Speaker 1: away tickets if you're allowed to resell it. But I've
Speaker 1: been there where you are struggling to pay rent and
Speaker 1: if it was a pain to go to this game
Speaker 1: or whatever. I can't judge. He won the tickets, they
Speaker 1: were his. He can do what he wants with them.
Speaker 1: He's a Patriots fan, which maybe gives you an insight
Speaker 1: into the character we're talking about. But it wasn't a
Speaker 1: Patriots game, as I recall, so maybe he was always
Speaker 1: the set up first well number one, And I would
Speaker 1: like to hear his response because it sounds like maybe
Speaker 1: it possibly on another scenario. Listeners just trying to drop
Speaker 1: an a bomb on the rando, but the winner of
Speaker 1: the subrodded super contest drop a line, let us uh
Speaker 1: and let us know your story and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: just we're curious. No judgment zone, no judgment yet. A
Speaker 1: little game of what's more likely? From Tom Marshall at
Speaker 1: Red Zone. A U k uh, what's more likely? The
Speaker 1: Jaguars win Super Bowl fifty two and Bortles is named
Speaker 1: m v P, where Patriots win another one and Brady retires.
Speaker 1: I don't think Brady's Brady's entire movement right now, win
Speaker 1: or lose the Super Bowl is to show that he
Speaker 1: can play and extend his playing career long beyond anyone
Speaker 1: would would dare to deem possible. So I'll go Jaguars Bortles.
Speaker 1: I have my suspicions that that's more important to him
Speaker 1: now than winning titles. Like Building said, there's no end
Speaker 1: of I'm an everlasting professional athlete. So yeah, I totally
Speaker 1: think there's no way more important. I mean, there's nothing
Speaker 1: really to indicate that I just got feel um, but
Speaker 1: I would say Bortles, although if the Jaguars won the
Speaker 1: super Bowl, you almost still wouldn't think it was that
Speaker 1: likely that he's the m v P. But we're at
Speaker 1: a point in time where I know you're not into
Speaker 1: the metrics and like probability and all that, but there
Speaker 1: is a like, at least a fifty percent chance at
Speaker 1: this moment that either Blake Bortles, you know, case Keenum
Speaker 1: or Nick Foles is going to win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: And if even if you want to be generous to
Speaker 1: the Patriots and say that that they're they're about fifty
Speaker 1: and if they got past New England and let Bortles
Speaker 1: just not gonna have a monster game, that award always
Speaker 1: tilts towards the quarterback. Now what, no matter what, if
Speaker 1: he threw a last a fourth quarter, late fourth quarter
Speaker 1: touchdown pass, it was a nice pass to win the game. Hello,
Speaker 1: it's a great story. If the super Bowl was the
Speaker 1: if the Divisional round game, if that just was the
Speaker 1: super Bowl, Bordos probably would have won the m v P,
Speaker 1: just because I don't think it would have been for
Speaker 1: Net and there just wasn't like that's what happens a
Speaker 1: lot of times. There's not like that super logical picks
Speaker 1: and you just give it the quarterback is definitely has
Speaker 1: the most likely chance of winning. It is Blake Bortles. No, anyway,
Speaker 1: moving on JT At crushing five eleven's quatia, you're reborn
Speaker 1: as an NFL fan and get to choose to cheer
Speaker 1: for a new team, no questions asked, and you have
Speaker 1: no knowledge of your past allegiance qualas to Fantasia today
Speaker 1: right now Vikings because of their success. I just well,
Speaker 1: I guess I'm dropping in from literally zero conscious about
Speaker 1: anything on the planet. This one's actually easy for me
Speaker 1: because it says it takes away your prior, your knowledge.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna put myself back in Los Angeles and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put pick the Rams because they're a team
Speaker 1: that just started. So that's nice, Like you're just starting
Speaker 1: from and it's Sean McVeigh just started in golf and
Speaker 1: Girly just started. I think that feels great that you're
Speaker 1: kind of like jumping in at the beginning of this team. Basically,
Speaker 1: I was thinking the Rams are a good one, especially
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna be in l A. And I was
Speaker 1: also thinking as a Yankees fan, it's always been weird
Speaker 1: that I'm a Yankee Jets fan. If I had a
Speaker 1: chance to reboot it and just be a Giants fan,
Speaker 1: and I'm just like Yankee Giants fan, like all the
Speaker 1: jam Oaks in the Tri State area, that's pretty good
Speaker 1: life in general. Jets, Mets fans, Diants, Yankees fans are
Speaker 1: living right. The first team I remember watching really is
Speaker 1: the Giants, and with my dad in those old Seals teams.
Speaker 1: And I don't know about the l A things, and
Speaker 1: who knows how long we'll be here, but I would
Speaker 1: want to find a team where I could bring my
Speaker 1: kids to the game versus at night when I talked
Speaker 1: to my five and seven year old about the Browns,
Speaker 1: all they know is Daddy to the Browns still be terrible?
Speaker 1: Are they still losers? It's like, uh, they are right
Speaker 1: that not? You don't kids don't aren't attracted to losing team.
Speaker 1: It's a conversation for another pod. But that's why I
Speaker 1: support If Walker my son or Alice my daughter want
Speaker 1: to root for the Rams or Chargers, and they're growing
Speaker 1: up here. I support that. Colton right now supports what
Speaker 1: he calls the Westwood Chargers. He doesn't quite know the location,
Speaker 1: but he's convinced that from Westwood is Daddy ever coming back.
Speaker 1: Let me do one more um this from Mitch Kappa
Speaker 1: Papa think on Twitter, if you could swap any one
Speaker 1: Final Four team from the last three years with one
Speaker 1: this year, who do you swap in? Slash out to
Speaker 1: make a better weekend? Okay, to make a better weekend
Speaker 1: for in the past three years? Interesting tough for me.
Speaker 1: I really like these teams, even the Eagles. I just
Speaker 1: like what's happened with this season. My wish before the
Speaker 1: campaign was for changing of the guard, and we got it.
Speaker 1: I couldn't be happier. But I think I would maybe
Speaker 1: switch out. I want the Vikings to go to the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, so I would. I would. I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't want to put in some great team, but maybe
Speaker 1: you switch out the Eagles with maybe that one of
Speaker 1: those Seahawks teams, a little bit of a lesser Seahawks
Speaker 1: team to make it agree. I need such a break
Speaker 1: from the Seahawks. I'm feeling good about them not being
Speaker 1: involved for a little while. I'm not pushing for ast switch,
Speaker 1: so I guess I'm gonna put in the I don't know.
Speaker 1: I had to roll through the teams and think about it,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna give the two thousand fifteen Cardinals another
Speaker 1: crack at it and replace the Eagles with Folds. I
Speaker 1: know I did kind of an anti Eagles campaign, but
Speaker 1: I do kind of believe that. To me, they're the
Speaker 1: least compelling team of these four, so they're the team
Speaker 1: I would want to it out. And I love that
Speaker 1: Cardinals team. Give them another shot. I'll probably go with
Speaker 1: mm hmm. Maybe let's get that Broncos team that beat
Speaker 1: Tommy Boy, then get Peyton back in the mix and
Speaker 1: replace the Jags. It was American waiting. How far back
Speaker 1: can we go? Years? And I'd like to take a
Speaker 1: Coughlin led Giants team and have them go deal with
Speaker 1: the Patriots again and not come out oft there yet,
Speaker 1: No America, America's sweethearts, Bond Miller and C. J. Anderson
Speaker 1: shots fired and now they're fine. I'm just saying it's
Speaker 1: not a team everyone was. I'm looking for a team
Speaker 1: that could beat the and they did that. Year, and
Speaker 1: I would like it to happen. He did it twice.
Speaker 1: There you go. That is Oh yeah, the shoulders of
Speaker 1: greatness presented. Of course my head and shoulders. You all
Speaker 1: got great shoulders except for what was his name? No shoulder,
Speaker 1: John John shoulders, some medical thing. It's not as sorry
Speaker 1: about your plate bro. All right, we'll be back on
Speaker 1: Thursday with our big preview show. I will try to
Speaker 1: get through the show knowing that I could be at
Speaker 1: a Redkin party on Thursday, but I will instead be
Speaker 1: uh previewing football games. But listen sometimes and you gotta
Speaker 1: be a pro. You gotta be a pro. I urged
Speaker 1: you to shrug off so called professionalism and go. And
Speaker 1: I still think you have time. You could still get
Speaker 1: that flight. It's not too late. I want to know
Speaker 1: if they would have flown you first class. That was
Speaker 1: gonna be my next question if I decided to go.
Speaker 1: It's like, how far can I take this? Uh? So, yes,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about the two big games on Sunday, which
Speaker 1: will take us to the big game. Um So, big
Speaker 1: show coming on Thursday. Until then, this is Dan Hanson
Speaker 1: signing off for Quiet Storm. Connie Fox, the Old Boss,
Speaker 1: Lindsay Bolton Christian Anderson also behind the glass. Thank you
Speaker 1: to them till Thursday,
