(00:26):
A very interesting quarterback plan for one team in the NFL.
We will get into that here coming up in just
a couple of moments from now. It is Outkicked the

and Jonas Knock. She can hang out with us as

(00:46):
you are making us a part of your Thursday morning.
We appreciate you doing so. We're going to take you
all the way up until the end of the hour
nine am Eastern time, six o'clock Pacific, right here on
Fox Sports Radio. And welcome to Week two of the
NFL season. It is already here. We've got a matchup
coming up later on tonight. We've got the Giants at
(01:06):
the Washington Football Team. LaVar, we are not sure whether
or not to say Kwan Barkley is going to play
it is a short week coming off that aunt, you know.
I mean, here's the only thing I'll say is when
he was at Penn State, it was whether it was
(01:27):
scheme the old line. Um. He does have a tendency
sometimes to want to bounce it to the outside and
get to the outside because he's got exposed explosive speed.
He hits that home run, there was that thought though,
like sometimes you'd see him, sometimes you wouldn't. Um. And
so I'm not saying that it's it's necessarily unfair criticism,
(01:48):
but there definitely were factors at Penn State that I
think that played into all that. Yeah, I mean, I
don't know which was the Penn State game because I
think I remember Brady and I talked about this. People
ripped James Franklin because there was like a fourth and
one and they gave it to Trace McSorley. Right, it
was Chase Young who made the play, So how can
(02:10):
you be so mad? And they didn't give it to
Sae Kwon Barkley and that's why they got cred. It
wasn't it wasn't a good play. It wasn't a good place.
It didn't work. Why would you run inside play directly
at Chaise? That's the question you have to ask yourself
for one yard? Why would you run directly at Chase? You?
And I think the big, bigger gripe was that se
(02:31):
Kwan didn't touch the football. I mean, whatever you want
the gripe to beat, why would you take it towards
Chase Young? Well, I just I don't think that they
trusted sa Kwon Barkley in a short run yartist situation. Clearly,
clearly that good only in spurts. He's only a big
player like that. Let me ask the fire. Let me
(02:53):
ask you this. How many a hundred yard games he's
been in the NFL since two thousand eighteen? How many
hundred yard games do you think? You said? I wouldn't
know off the top of my head, but I do
think he aren't Rookie of the Year award though, I
think I believe I. Albert Brier said, what was the
number he gave? Played thirty two games in the NFL,
so he's had I'm gonna go with eleven. I'm gonna
(03:15):
say eleven yard. I look at that idea, and that's
why I picked it eleven from LaVar Arrington. That's why. Yeah,
I will say this. I'm looking right at him. He
does not have anything look up materials. This I don't
That was off the top of his dome. That there's
no Albert. That's what Albert alber Brier said. You remember
(03:40):
what he said. It was what Albert Brier said. I'll
stop listening to him. I saw. I didn't even hear.
And so so let me ask you this though, do
you think that Sae Kwon Barkley's career and I don't
want to say it was ruined, but he was drafted
in a really bad situation with the Giants to where
he was the beginning piece of a rebuild, like he
(04:01):
was before Daniel Jones, he was before Joe Giudge, he
was before all this other like, do you think the
situation he was drafted into is going to ultimately end
up damaging his career and his trajectory moving forward. That's
a fine organization he's playing for, I understand. But the
idea of it is is that you would assume that
(04:22):
he has a better opportunity of being able to solidify
a fine ce, a fine career as as a player
for the Giants versus not. Now, if he went to
a poorly ran organization, then you would have to say
he's the You know, there's collateral damage to poorly ran
organizations that happens every year, year in a year out.
(04:46):
But but with an injury of of the sort that
he had that he sustained, I mean, that does knock
time off of your career. I mean in terms of
how how much longer? How long will he be playing
at the explosive level that he did coming into the league.
(05:07):
But I think that they're trying to figure it out
in in New York. And if I were a betting man,
I would say they're going to figure out. But the
problem that faces someone like se Kwan is if when
you have a shelf life as a running back on
average that's three years, Well that's shelf life. He's already
(05:30):
you know, he's already passed that and beyond that. So
if they're still trying to build this and and he
has to be the load, the load carrier, it could
have a tremendous continue to have a tremendous impact on
his body. So I mean, yes, he is a victim
of a team that isn't very good right now. But
(05:52):
it's sad because it's a good organization that just isn't
isn't doing well right now. Yeah, I think the interesting
or the hard thing about this for sake k One
is you've got a general manager that could be on
the hot seat, who drafted you, you have I think
a quarterback is like there there's a lot of things
that play. You've got potentially an extension for sake want
(06:15):
to play. You've got decisions on Daniel Jones and whether
or not he's your guy. You've got a decision on
the guy who drafted both of them and whether or
not he's the right guy for it. There's just a
lot up in the air. I always feel like when
there's that that kind of instability, if you will, and
this is a good organization, I just think it makes
(06:36):
for a really really difficult season because there's so much
unknown and unless they turn things around quickly, which you know,
they're playing on the road short week, never easy. Sake
one is probably still sore right even with the limited
reps he got last week. It's just a tough spot
to being like for all parties involved, it's it's not
(06:56):
an easy thing. To be able to overcome, and especially
when you look at that roster and you're like, I'm
looking at it saying they're either the worst roster in
the in the NFC East or their third like they
ain't close to top two. I just I think it's
a really tough position for Sae Kwonda be in with
all those things considered, for Daniel Jones to be in,
(07:17):
because the offensive line has never been what I think
either one of them had hoped it would be by now.
And then obviously the general manager, who at some point,
this is how it goes with general managers. They're either
gonna start accepting what their fate maybe, or they start
pointing fingers and then they start, you know, trying to
you know, share or push off the blame elsewhere to survive.
(07:39):
It'll it'll be interesting to see what happens tonight, what
happens the next few weeks of this team, and then
what the narrative becomes. UM And turning to the Washington
football team, who, by the way, if you missed the
open to the show, UM interesting, uh, you know kind
of opening segment for LaVar Arrington, who shed some light
on his time with the Washington Football team. So check
out the podcast after the show and you get to
(08:00):
get an nice little different perspective into how things work
there and watching it. That's very long ago, though from
what I've heard, things have since changed. And sometimes repentance
comes from you know, you know, necessity. Sometimes it comes
from you know, sensibility. Yeah, you know, maybe it's a
(08:21):
little of both. Maybe he's had some some real sensible
moments and wants to do better. And maybe, um maybe
he's just not in a position where he has any
other choice but to to allow for people to actually
do Wait, listen to this. I know this might sound
crazy Brady and Jonas, but he might just allow the
(08:44):
people he hires to do their job. That's a good point.
That's a really good point. Y. Yeah, it's a it's
a tough thing to do. Um. Now, when it comes
to the quarterback situation, obviously, Ryan Fitzpatrick was hurt. Earlier
this week, Ron Rivera, the head coach, addressed the quarterback
situation there in d C. I don't know any much.
(09:05):
Do you think much more about the injury other than
he did sublex it. You know, we're gonna get a
second opinion, just to make sure on all the stuff
that we have, and we're gonna put him my r
and we're gonna go from there. As we learn more,
we'll well, we'll go from there. Ron, Do you plan
to bring in anybody else aside from Shermer No as
of now. No, we're gonna we got a short week.
(09:26):
We'll go through the week, and we'll go from there.
All right, So the plan is Taylor Heineke is going
to be your starting quarterback there for the Washington football team.
Why why didn't they do more at the quarterback position
this offseason? I think I think that's a tremendous because
because like it feels like they just rolled out Ryan
Fitzpatrick and look, we've seen this this thing for a
(09:47):
long time to want to let Brady handle this one first.
But I will say this, they have always tried to
address their quarterback situation aggressively in the off season. So
it's like we make fun of Washington for doing it
that way, and and now it's like kind of like
the one time they don't do it where we're you know,
(10:08):
it's like it's a big question, But go ahead, Brady.
It just seems a little bizarre. No, I'm with Jonahsi
I don't know that I've really got a good answer
for you. I think it's maybe one of two things. Um.
They either wanted to roll the dice this year with
what they had and feel like if it ends up
going poorly, you're gonna be a great draft position for
a quarterback next year, which no one wants to admit that.
(10:31):
But I don't know how else you justify it going
in with what you had, or they really felt confident
in Ryan Fitzpatrick being the guy and then what they
have and Taylor Heneke, which could be the case. I
don't know. We'll see how Taylor Honeke plays. We've seen
only seen a small sample size so far, and you
(10:52):
can't say that it's it's it's not like he's necessarily
played poorly. He at times and you can say he
played great versus Tampa last year in the playoffs. So, UM,
I'm curious to see how Honeky plays. Look, I'm bullish
on on this this team tonight. I don't know about
the rest of the season, but I think they get another.
I think they get the first win to night, I
really do. I think short week, all those things considered, UM,
(11:12):
I think Heinek will play well. He adds that, you know,
more mobile, devent dimension from the quarterback spot. That puts
pressure on on on the defense. So maybe they feel
like they've got something in him. You know, I think
a lot of people, um, you know, you could have
been questioning other organizations right when they put in a
guy who's not as highly touted. You know, Tom Brady
(11:33):
was a sixth round pick. I wonder from Drew bred
So to Tom Brady, how people were feeling about him
initially when they first put him in. I don't really
recall what the local media was saying or fan base,
but that's always in the back of my mind. You know,
Tony Romo, other players like that who came in the
league in a different way. Heinek has kind of been
on that that trajectory. But who knows what he could
(11:55):
make this opportunity into. You know, Tom Brady had a
good track record coming out of knowledge though, like he
had a national title and and everything on his resume,
but he was splitting time with Henson. Yeah, but he
was good. He wasn't that. I'm just saying if if
like there was still that narrative of like, if it
was so good, why was he starting the truth, truth
and listen. Not All I know is that dude was
(12:18):
good even in college, like good enough to to beat
a top rated defense with ten ten points to go
and eight minutes left and to get um reliving stable.
But what I will say is is someone like Tony
Romo I think is definitely appropriate for the conversation. And again,
(12:40):
you have to assume with the culture shift that's that's
taking place in Washington, they're doing this one thing that
UM a lot of people don't do with their players
in the National Football League. They might be trying to
develop Tyler Heinike. They might actually have a rust in
him that he can be a guy that can be
(13:03):
a starter for them as they move on and and Fitzpatrick.
You know that Fitzpatrick is not a long term answer.
So for him to be a starter and them to
settle in on this group as their quarterbacks, I'm thinking
they felt as though Tyler Heineke could be their guy.
And people aren't talking about it because that's not sexy,
(13:24):
that's not that's not the conversation that people are going
to have because it's like, who's Tyler Heineke. There you go, there,
there you go? Right and I probably call him Tyler
a whole bunch more times I've called him. I've called
him Todd Heineken before. Well, I mean they didn't say
Manny Pacio's name correctly and point so that the idea
(13:48):
of it to me is Ron Rivera knows what's going
on in Washington. He came from Philly, Um, he played
against played against Washington for right sometime. He's familiar with
the NFC East. He understands the dynamics there. They made
this decision in the note. They did not make this ignorantly.
(14:09):
They did not take a shot in the dark. They
made this as an informed decision that these were going
to be there, two quarterbacks. It says to me the
amount of confidence that they have in Heineke versus the
inability or the lack of aggressiveness in UH free agency
or even in the draft to bring a guy in.
I think they feel good about who they have. It's
(14:29):
i'll kick the coverage here Fox Sports Radio. This this
is OutKick the coverage. We will have the scraps in
a little over ten minutes from now here on FS
are UH and UH and we've got a brand new
era for one team in the world of sports. So
we'll get to that here in the scraps. We are
also going to get to this um this story in
(14:51):
the NFL. We got a game coming up this weekend
and somebody's in denial about what is happening with their career.
But I don't know if you guys, as I saw this.
Ian Rapp Report of the NFL Network just had this
note that Marcus Mariotta is expected to be out multiple
weeks after aggravating a quad injury during that thirty one
yard run early on in the Monday night game against Baltimore.
(15:15):
A few weeks is the best case scenario, says Rapp Report.
Uh it Rob's Las Vegas of a weapon as they
planned to sprinkle Mariotta in on offense. So there he
is out with a quad injury for several weeks. Did
he get hit on the quad? I don't remember that. Look,
I'm not trying to say that they're lying about the injury,
But when he got up, he looked a little dazed
(15:37):
and it looked like he smacked his head. And I
don't know if they if maybe they did not handle
the concussion the proper way, and they're trying to uh
you know hines Ward used to say he had a
calf injury every time he was dazed because he didn't
want to come off the field. I'm just wondering what
you know. Again, I'm not trying to make any accusations here,
just saying, you know, just just trying to say it.
(15:58):
I remember people using the use of a neck injury.
They'll say that it's not his head, it's his neck,
you know, stiff neck syndrome exactly before. Have you ever
heard your quad? Uh? I have? Actually have you I'm
saying not from contact though, like actually like pulled it twice. Actually, yeah,
seems hard to do. It's very painful. I'll tell you
(16:22):
that when you pull your quad, it is a very
painful injury. You hear the story about Vince McMahon. The
injury of Vince McMahon suffered and there was a they
had an issue in the ring to where they was
supposed to be. Something was supposed to happen in the ring,
and they screwed up. The guys screwed up. So the
result that was planned, the result that was planned. Uh,
(16:43):
they had to think of something on the fly. So
McMahon came out to the ring to try and uh,
you know, he was gonna get upset and yelled at
the wrestlers and he was going to disqualify one of
them because they were trying to cover up the mistake
that happened. And when he crawled into the ring, he
blew out both quads literally dove into the ring, and
the way that he hit his knees on the ring
(17:04):
apron as he was sliding in. He tried to stand
up and they both exploded, literally both at the same time.
And he had to sit there and then get get
wheeled out because he could not stand up, blew both
quads at the same time. I bet you I was
paying Hell. Yeah, that's pain. By the way, do you
know how old Vince mcmahn is now, he's like four,
(17:25):
he's seventies six. He looks damn good for that. He's
pretty shocked. He's pretty strong. It doesn't look like it
doesn't look sevty six. I don't know if it looks
looks great. I don't know. He's been around forever. Yeah,
great head of hair, it does. Yeah, big chess. I
can get a big barrel chest. You ever by Vince
(17:46):
mcman impression, Let's hear it you're fired. You're fired. That's awful.
That's that's actually fired. Let me hear you fire. Ready, Quinn, Ready, Quinn,
you're fired. That's decent. You know, that's a limited Vince McMahon,
(18:11):
that's a that's a decent. I think you're closer to
Donald Trump you're fired than you are Vince mcgon. Oh,
come on, listen to that. Okay, that's not even close. Yeah,
let's hearers, they're fired. I mean it. It is really
(18:34):
one of the worst impressions you did. You do some
great press as far as a limited Vince McMahon, that
I think that's legit. Man. By the way, by the way,
we are brought to you by December. Donald Trump, Vince McMahon,
(18:54):
have you heard my Harry carry? Your Harry carry is good? Alright,
that's here. Hi to to out LaVar And that's a plant,
you know, Lavars Blackwards is wrong And there's a groundball
the thirtle stuff on the back and the cuffs rot
of the inning. Is that not that? Donald is my hero?
(19:21):
Is pretty yeah? Listen, the first confident on the show's funny.
You're collins Worth is number one? That might be number two.
Let's hear you. I mean, I gotta tell you, like
I'm watching the Washington football team and I just can't
help but think they can't get it. Pass rush Daniel
Jones is all the time in the world, Like, where's
LaVar Arrington? Me needing it? You know, like you're like borderline,
(19:47):
like a brokeman version of Joe Paterno Man. Yeah, you
kind of sound like Joe, Like you're almost like you're
you're speaking like Italian slang almost a little bit. Listen
to you do enough in minerre you start to screw
him after a while. That sound more n um. By
the way, we are brought to you by Discovered Discovered
(20:07):
matches all the cash back here on your credit card
at the end of your first year. It's amazing because
discovers except that places in the U. S. State credit
cards learn more discover dot com slash Yes, two thousand
twenty one Nielson Report limitations apply. All right, so we
don't have a lot of time. Let's pay off the tease.
Matt Ryan is saying, uh, in their matchup with Tom
Brady and the Bucks that uh, you know, the Super
Bowl loss to Brady and the Patriots is not factoring
(20:30):
at all into his thinking as he sees Tom Brady
on the sidelines, which is which is a great denial
except for the fact that Tom Brady can't help but
troll the Atlanta Falcons. And he posted some Instagram or
snap face picture earlier this week with the time three eight,
which is alluding to the three lead that the Atlanta
(20:52):
Falcons had that they blew in the Super Bowl. Um,
Matt Ryan's never going to forget about that loss, correct,
Like that is going to Yes, and for anybody involved
with that team, they're never going to forget that lost. Correct. Yes, Literally,
the organization since that point in time has gotten no doubt.
(21:14):
Hell do you think get impacted Kyle Shanahan's play calling
in the Super Bowl against the Chiefs that Super Bowl loss? Oh? Um?
I don't think so, because they criticized him about some
of the play calling in that game. Never mind he
might have had he might have been reliving some some moments.
(21:35):
Why don't we always This is my frustration, and I
don't know how LaVar is gonna feel about it, but
we just let the defense off the hook. I mean,
we're serious right now, You're up twenty eight to three
to Super Bowl and you can't. I mean, come on,
even against Kansas City. Even against Kansas City, like Patrick
Mahomes took a ninth step dropping that game. I've never
(21:57):
seen anything like it before. Had literally at least six
seconds to throw and chucks it down field to Tyreek
Hill in open space, like, can we get some pass
rush covered something? Keeping my keep in mind, their defense
was the whole lynchpin of everything that took place that season.
Everybody talked so much about how well the defense and
(22:19):
defensive front of the San Francisco forty Niners played, and
to to to give them, think about this, you delivered
a two possession game UM lead in the Super Bowl
and they gave it up. Like you could say, you know,
Garoppolo missed the throws, he could have been better. You
(22:41):
could have said it was Shanahan's play calling. You gave
that defense. I think how much time was maybe like
eight minutes or something it was, I mean it was
it was. It was so low on on the time
and your defense is so good, who would think that
(23:01):
you could score that quickly and take the lead. So
to me, I don't correlate the two and that Shanahan
messed up because of his his memories and different things
like that. I don't I don't think so. And also
in that Super Bowl the Falcons lost to the Patriots,
when because I remember we were on the air right
(23:22):
after that happened. We remember doing we were doing the
post game show. And I can't believe that a lot,
but I saw we were doing a Yeah, we were
doing the post game show here on Fox Boards Radio.
And I think Brandon I both agreed when when New
England got the ball to start overtime, you knew that
was over correct, Like, you knew Atlanta wasn't going to
(23:44):
stop them. They were going to go down the field
and they were going to score in the opening drive,
and that was gonna be it. You knew the game
was over. When they came back for that moment, you
knew it was over. The defense looked completely shook. They
look totally shook with what happened, and you knew when
they got the ball to start over time, it was
a rap. It just felt like that was it. That
was that was that was. That was all she wrote.
(24:04):
So I mean Collinsworth. We mentioned Collinsworth. He says the
two Super Bowls that he lost for the Bengals, say
it in the collins Worth voice. Though, I mean, you know,
people think I'm a little bit nuts, and maybe I am.
But uh, like, there's not a day that goes by
that I don't think about those two super bowls. Not
a day that goes by. And he said that on
(24:27):
on his on his A Football Life documentary, he said,
every single day he thinks about those two super Bowl
losses and those are competitive about where I got drafted
to every day, Like if I had gotten draft, if
I it's like if I would if I were if
I went to a better team, where would my career gone?
(24:47):
I think about that every day. Yeah, that's a it's
a harsh reality. Like it's like, man, like you're good
in high school, you get to choose where you want
to go because of how good you are. When you're
good in college, you don't get to choose where you go,
you know what I mean, Like they're not recruiting you,
and it's like, okay, yep, I'm gonna choose this team.
(25:08):
I'm gonna go here, like they pick you. And if
you're good, if you're good enough to be good, you
generally aren't going to go to a good team, right,
So it's like that plays out, It plays out like
it plays a big impact. I think that's why the
Draft is one of the most fascinating live events live
(25:29):
reality TV you ever see, because even for all those
people who are watching who can't relate from athletics standpoint,
like you you get out of college, if you go
to college or whatever you do after high school, and
like you kind of have a choice, right, I mean,
you get to pick and shoes, who you'd like to
go work for, who you're going to interview with at least, right,
And and it's such a it kind of it's a
(25:50):
it's a one eight from that, like you have no
choice in it whatsoever. And it obviously plays an impact
on your career, on your livelihood and all that, um
and so it is kind of crazy just the concept
in general, but it does provide at least I think,
parody for the NFL and for a better product in
the NFL. UM. But at the end of the day,
(26:10):
I think the toughest thing about the truth of the
NFL is there's probably eight teams that really have a
shot of winning a Super Bowl. Like that's it Man
of the league every year that actually has a shot.
That's actually trying to win, to win a Super Bowl.
The rest of them are just businesses and fans don't
want to hear that. People don't want to hear that,
but it's true, and you know who they are. That's
(26:31):
the same. Yes, I mean, like like I was, unfortunately
had been to enough teams. But fortunately for this career,
I've been to enough teams to have perspective. And I
can tell you the second you go to a good organization,
you know, you know it right away. Yes, you get there,
(26:54):
you go, okay, this is how we're handling this like
it's just it's it's too completely different worlds and so
it's it's no wonder you know that that you see that.
You know, the New England Patriots dominate forever. There's other
organizations that have dominated forever. They're actually trying to win
Super Bowls. Other teams just trying to be profitab let's
try to make more money. Yeah, but you know what, man,
the hell of an entertainment to have every single week
(27:17):
at our expense? Hey listen, look, I have I've supported you.
I mean I am for what it's worth. You know
it had things gone differently in your careers, we wouldn't
all be doing the show here together. So you know,
I think everything happens for a reason, and you guys
got paired up with with a slappy here every you
know what, on second thought, LaVar, second thought, I I've reconsidered.
(27:43):
I am definitely with you on there. Things could have
been a lot different different you know if I if
I had any stroke in this place, you know what
I'd say right now that Brady Quinn, You're fine? Uh?
Coming up next, we are going to have the scraps
here on fs are but for all the latest around
the world of sports ladies and gentlemen. Edmund Garcia. Yeah,
(28:08):
you have to do that right when you threw it
over to me. Huh, Ede, is that is that that
bad of a passion? It's so bad. It's great, it's
so fun, but it's bad. You know, I have I

over to our executive producer, Danny g to find out
what the hell we've missed so far in this show.
D very cool news today if you, especially if you
(32:59):
have a daughter, share this story with her later today.
The Milwaukee Bucks have named Lisa Byington as the team's
new TV play by play announcer. For Lisa, she's a professional,
she has a great job. She's gonna be doing her
thing for Bally Sports Wisconsin, making her the very first
woman to handle full time TV play by play duties
for a major men's pro sports team. Now, she replaces
(33:23):
longtime Bucks announcer Jim Pashke, who did the job for
thirty five years, and he went out with a title
what a Way to Go and a statement. Buyington says
that she's absolutely thrilled at the opportunity. She was the
first women's play by play broadcaster for a Big Ten
network college football game that was back in She's also
(33:44):
done Women's World Cup on Fox. She called the Attorney
in March is part of the CBS Turner Sports covered,
so she has done her thing for a while and
definitely has earned this spot for the Bucks. And that's
a that's a good job with that team coming off
a title. Uh. Beth Mullins is another one who does
a bunch of stuff. She does. She does Cubs games. Um,
(34:07):
she's done college football like no. So it's awesome to
see them them get me an opportunity and a little
bit of love. They do a great job, alright. NFL
dot Com the headline says, mac Jones says Patriots need
more urgency heading into Week two of the NFL season.
You need it more if you don't win, he said.
I think that's part of it. We need to not press,
(34:30):
but there needs to be more urgency and stuff than
he was channeling. Uh one of the wat brothers there
and stuff fire like you know, you know, come on,
he's doing his best. He's young now. Mac Jones teammates
were very proud of how he handled himself in the pocket.
He did a great job. I was so proud of
(34:51):
him and how he handled things, said tight end hunter Henry.
He sat in there in the pocket even when it
was coming down and made some big time throws that
sometimes a out of other guys aren't gonna make. Just
standing in the pocket and taking hits and everything like that.
It shows a lot to us as guys. Henry gestures
to his chest, a guy that's gonna stand in there
with heart no matter what he delivers the ball. It
(35:13):
was big to see. How about that LaVar quarterback standing
in there with heart? What do you have to say
about Yeah, they have hearts. Yeah they don't have to
have very much anymore, but they do have them. Always say,
don't touch her, no offense, don't touch her, just you know,
can be protective of the corner, especially these days. I
(35:35):
mean you could at least hit them back in days,
but you can't say. Man, it's changed a lot in
the past decad It's got to the point where I
would even take the side of defenders saying, you know,
they're more risk. They've got a much harder job to
change the way they're going to hit a player. And
it's not on them. It really isn't on them. If
the offensive lineman tied in right, whoever's blocking them, isn't
(35:57):
doing their job. That's part of why quarterback to get
compensated so well is to be able to take the
punishment of you know what, is playing football. So I've
always thought it it's it's gone overboard. Now, what's the
hardest hit you ever took as a quarterback? Brady in
the pocket? Um, I took one in two thousand nine
from Kevin Williams. I think I've told you that before. Um.
(36:20):
It was more of just the the shock that there.
They're like, how quickly it happened? Like we like, I
was dropping back and I had what was called we
called it a PSL pre snap look, and so basically,
depending on what the defense is given you, you've got
a progression on each side of the field. And so
I was starting to look to my left. That's where
(36:40):
my progression was started based on the coverage. And as
I got on my third step in my drop back,
because I was under center, I felt like a presence.
You know, you ever been like sleeping in the middle
of the night, you feel like there's someone who's standing
over you or something like that. It was, okay, that
really applies here, but it it was one of those
(37:01):
situations where by my third step, I feel this presence
and I'm immediately on my back with Kevin Williams on
top of it, and I think, but because the ball
at that point, like it's almost like a reaction. I
just I just had the ball in my right hand
and my hands are separate. I just pinned the ball
against my chest and thank god Kevin Williams and trying
(37:22):
to go for because he would have knocked it out,
but he like landed on top of with the ball.
I remember kind of having the wind knocked out of
me and thinking to myself, Holy crap, that happened so fast.
I hope I have four times and that today, especially
if you said on your third step, nobody, it was
like by the time I was like getting to my
fifth step, I was already on my back. I'm flat
back by that point. That's bad. Yeah, I would have
(37:46):
saved you, Brady whoever was blocking for it. Yeah, alright,
and quickly here, What would you guys think if you
saw a huge human brain running down the street? Keep
your thoughts. A British runner is aiming to break a
Guinness World record by completing the London Marathon while dressed
as a human brain. Bryce Alfred, fundraising manager for brain
(38:08):
injury charity Headway, has been repeatedly spotted in recent days
running on the streets of Jersey, England, while dressed in
a full body brain costume. Officers with a St. Hellier
Township policing unit posed for a photo with him the
other day and they put it on their Facebook page.
Alfred is attempting to break the Guinness record for fastest
(38:29):
marathon dressed as a brain. He said that there there's
a brain and they're already that was fast. He says
the costumes designed as a representation of what people would
brain injuries feel like. What I hear over and over
again is that people feel they are trapped inside their
own brain. So when you get to see me inside
this costume, you'll absolutely see what that might feel like.
(38:52):
A yeah, why don't you Why doesn't he just tarn
feather himself and say this is for all the chickens
get murdered at at a buffalo wild wings, So what
do we talk? It's just it's ridiculous and get a life.
The guy's a loser, all right, and you know what
this is. He's not doing this for any sort of uh,
to help out people with brain disorders or anything like that.
He's doing this because he's got a built an excuse
(39:13):
why he has a poor time in the marathon. That's
exactly what this is, because he's got that contraption on
Deontay Wilder pulled the same thing with that heavy cost,
and when he came in to Vy, come on, you're
not pulling that fast one on me. They're not happy
everything you're a fire. Absolutely have to comment like that.
I was talking about a ye
