which you can hear on the blowtorch Am five to

(01:30):
seventy LA Sports Fox College Football Analyst and you can

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Good morning, Hello, good morning everybody who.

Speaker 7 (01:42):
Old Pe got a little energy today, Little Pepe, you step.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
That up about ten minutes earlier.

Speaker 7 (01:48):
All right, oh nice, here I am. Are you hitting
to yoga? How are you feeling?

Speaker 2 (01:53):
No, No, not till later. Oh okay, on ten oclock.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
You're very limber. Huh, I am?

Speaker 6 (02:00):
How does that play a part?

Speaker 7 (02:00):
They say it like unlatched, the different aspects of how
you're able to think more clearly, and you know you
you live a healthier lifestyle and all kinds of stuff
that's connected to all that stretching and stuff.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
I don't know about all that, but I am limbert.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
Okay, it used to be.

Speaker 8 (02:18):
Okay, that's the funny thing about like yoga, you know,
where you say like, yeah, I practice yoga and people
go wow, wow, you know I could never do that.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
I'm not flexible at all. It's like, well, yeah, neither
was I.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
And now that's the point of it, exactly, Okay, I got.

Speaker 9 (02:30):
You uh old p.

Speaker 10 (02:33):
I got to start off by one where it's fun
to watch the Lakers. Obviously Lebron is historical. He's one
of the.

Speaker 6 (02:40):
Best all time.

Speaker 10 (02:41):
I feel well, I was going to lead to that
point because it feels like now we're getting to a
point where like every back to back apparently he's TVD
because he's played so long, so much at this point
in the season, is that the best thing for the
Lakers is that ultimately what's best for their.

Speaker 8 (02:59):
Okay, no, they need to move on from Lebron and
they have new ownership. The guy that owns the Dodgers
bought the Lakers. Well, actually there's a group that owns
the Dodgers. The guy that is the big guy in
that group, Mark Walter, did not use the rest of
the group to buy the Lakers. He just bought the Lakers.
So that guy is probably going to do what he

(03:23):
did with the Dodgers and slowly clean house and get
everything in order and get rid of Rob Polinka and
get rid of the.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Clutch sports people.

Speaker 8 (03:32):
But it's probably going to be like, you know, cutting
a two headed twin and a half, it's not going
to be easy. Lebron is pretty embedded there and has
his people embedded, and now he's got his guy Rich
Paul doing a podcast with Max Kellerman spewing all the propaganda.
It is pretty interesting. I mean, for his historical and

(03:52):
great as he is and numerically and all those things,
you can't argue it. But the media campaign that he's
launched to have everybody call him the best basketball player
of all time when we all know Michael Jordan is
and so on and so forth is exactly what you think.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
It is tiresome.

Speaker 8 (04:11):
And I've also probably been indoctrinated by X, you know,
because all you have to do is like one Lebron
hater report tweet, and every time I turn on my
phone there's like fifty tweets about what a bad guy
Lebron is and look, he didn't help this guy up
after he got fouled, and looking him brushing the hell

(04:33):
out of his skull like a psychopath, and here he
is talking about how he's not going to play and
back to bags and all of that.

Speaker 10 (04:40):
What's the most egregious thing, the brushing or the not
helping us up?

Speaker 8 (04:44):
Probably the not the brushing. Yeah, it's the chalk. The
chalk thing is annoying, while yeah, it's all all of
it is.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Just tiresome at this point.

Speaker 8 (04:59):
Even his celebration where he kind of like puts his
hands down and flishes you down. Yeah, that was a
Nick van Exel thing. Nothing seems genuine. Everything's things calculated
and ultimately, I mean, when you think about it, I
just don't think Lebron's that smart of a guy.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Dang, you know.

Speaker 8 (05:17):
I mean to sit there and get your lawyers to
try to tell everybody that you invented taco Tuesday or
talking in a barber shop and all of the different
weird little media things.

Speaker 7 (05:27):
How long has taco Tuesday? You're from here, you're older
than Lebron. Did you hear taco Tuesday.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
When you were growing up?

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (05:35):
Okay, all right, okay, go ahead. I'm from Pittsburgh, bro,
I'm from Columbus. I know about no taco Tuesdays.

Speaker 7 (05:44):
Like I said, Chee Cheese was the only mention spot
about Yeah, and that was like I was like, I
ain't even know what was going on. Taco looked like
it was a temple, like an Indian I know what
was going on.

Speaker 8 (05:58):
I remember being in Greece and being there for a
long time, you know, like for like three weeks, which
is a long time for me, and being kind of
lonely for American food after a while, and my wife
and I went to a Mexican restaurant on a Greek

(06:18):
island and it was you know, being from California, it
was probably one of the worst culinary decisions.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I've ever made.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
Oh you know, it is not.

Speaker 8 (06:27):
It is not if you live in southern California or
Arizona or someplace like that, New Mexico, Texas, trying to
get Mexican food anywhere else in the country is a
real risk.

Speaker 6 (06:42):
It was dicey and Charleston, I can tell you that.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (06:45):
Yeah, so I'm sure Chee Chee's was great. Now the
other oh, you know, the Casa Bonita is a very
famous place.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
Have you heard about that? In the South Park one?
Is that the name of it.

Speaker 8 (06:55):
There's a there's a South Park episode about this Mexican
restaurant that Cartonan wants to go to for his birthday
where they have like Mariachi's. They have guys doing like
cliff diving and stuff.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
They have like an indoor pool and all and all this,
and it.

Speaker 8 (07:13):
Was such like a coveted place to go for your birthday.
Then somebody actually opened it in Colorado. They made it
the Casa Bonita. You have to get like a special card.
It's like really hard to get reservations. There's like a lottery.
And that's that's a very famous Mexican restaurant. I don't
know if it's as famous as che Che's, but famous

(07:36):
in its own.

Speaker 6 (07:36):
So you know about chee Che's out here?

Speaker 2 (07:39):
No I don't. I just heard you guys talk.

Speaker 7 (07:41):
Oh I'm about to say, because I figured che Che's
was just like a knockoff deal for us on Man.

Speaker 8 (07:49):
Whenever I hear chi Chi, I think about that scene
in Scarface after things go terribly wrong and the guy
gets cut up with a chainsaw and all that. Yeah,
and but Tony Antana keeps his head and he says.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
Cheechy, chee Chy, get the Yale, get to chee get the.

Speaker 8 (08:06):
Yale, what's your second to my my my, My first
favorite line in that scene is when he's walking in
and he's got the guy it's with him. His friend
who is you know, eventually gets cut up with a chainsaw.
It's terrible, and he goes the door open, suss, my
brother knows everything. That's okay.

Speaker 7 (08:28):
First of all, the way shorty girl looked on the bed,
it was all the way skeptical, like I would stay
right at the door.

Speaker 6 (08:36):
The way she looked like she just like flat top.

Speaker 7 (08:38):
And I'm like, I'm like, the more you watch it,
you can tell that she's got something.

Speaker 4 (08:42):
She got a hammer up under that.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Yeah, and that's that that guy.

Speaker 8 (08:45):
Waldo says to Omar Suarez played by f Murray Abraham.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Gave him to the Columbia.

Speaker 8 (08:51):
Yeah, and F Murray Abraham goes, see, yeah, door open,
saus My brother knows everything.

Speaker 9 (09:03):
A baby her money, hold on, hold on, hold on
for a second, Jonas, is that your impression?

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Ship? That's all?

Speaker 8 (09:16):
Did you know Jonas bought like special pizza here we go.
I knew on my show and I didn't get a pizza.
I knew why didn't you give a pizza?

Speaker 2 (09:24):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
I knew this was gonna happen. I knew it.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
Jonas Jonahs done. That should be ten dollars.

Speaker 8 (09:30):
You guys that ran up on my work on my show.
Ronnie is so passive aggressive.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Our sound engineer. They don't like to be called board operators.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
And sound off technical oh technical producer okay.

Speaker 8 (09:50):
Okay, And I mean I'm trying my best.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Dis a great job, our producer.

Speaker 8 (09:59):
They both got uh like stacks of this awesome pizza
from Geez from Tim Kate tim Kate's and Ronnie fossil
from Jonas Knox. And what did I get a handful
of pubes?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
Nothing?

Speaker 6 (10:13):
Oh? Wow?

Speaker 11 (10:14):
Wow?

Speaker 7 (10:16):
Rest of all, Hey, did you guys get a handful
of pizzas?

Speaker 4 (10:20):
No?

Speaker 12 (10:21):
No?

Speaker 6 (10:21):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (10:22):
Well interesting? What was this all about? Jonah?

Speaker 1 (10:24):
So I wanted to do something nice for the producers
there there's no handful of pubes. Oh that could be arranged, touched, bro,
But I wanted. I wanted to do something nice for
the guys behind the scenes. So I got him some

(10:44):
lou Mal Noddies, some taste of Chicago lou Mal Naughties, pizzas.

Speaker 6 (10:48):
I didn't think it was that big of a deal, and.

Speaker 8 (10:52):
It wasn't until they come on the show bragging about it,
say what did you get? And then they say, hey,
did you see Jonas on that TV show? Saydy's been
doing it for twenty years when you did it for eighteen,
And then it just kind of dissipates from there.

Speaker 6 (11:04):
Never never it leaves.

Speaker 8 (11:06):
It leaves somebody with, you know, not a great taste
of Chicago pizza.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
In their mouth.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
I never said anything like a bitter taste. I also
reached out to I'm.

Speaker 8 (11:16):
Saying my friend Angel Fernandez got caught up with a chainsaw.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
I also reached out to Petros to say Happy New Year,
and I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
I'm sorry. Yes, I got a heartfelt text.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
Yeah, and I got no reply, so you tang. I know, Hey,
Happy New Years. We're off to it all. We are
off to an awful start in twenty twenty. Soon we
are we really is terrible.

Speaker 7 (11:39):
Petros, I'm gonna switch gears on you and get back
to sports a little bit.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh, this is a sports conversation.

Speaker 6 (11:45):
Yeah, we're talking pubes and wombs.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
And ya yo, you forgot about yo yo.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
That's what polluted her womb. And she wakes up with
a kill and she won't have me, she said a comma.

Speaker 7 (12:00):
Hey, the transfer portal was kind of creating a coma,
uh for college football? What's your not looking at? Look
at where everything is currently? What's your take on how
this whole you know, quickly uly developing deal.

Speaker 8 (12:22):
Lane kifferin sent Demand Williams a special pizza, and Jedfish
did not Huh. It's interesting. The Demand Williams story is
what you're referring to.

Speaker 7 (12:36):
Right, well, I mean, it's just all of it is
such an interesting storyline and plot in terms of how
this this portal was going.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
But go ahead, go stay where you're tweet.

Speaker 8 (12:47):
I saw a tweet that said sixty three or seventy
percent of the players in the college football playoffs not oh,
go ahead, I'm sorry, go ahead, they're transfer guys. Yes,
so you know, but then you look at like Fernando
Mendoza wasn't the most coveted guy in the portal when.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
He ended up in Indiana.

Speaker 8 (13:13):
And I know that Signetti built that whole thing that
is the marvel of the modern universe and should be.
He built it with some guys from JMU and his
staff that came from a Sun Belt team. So there's
ways to do the portal, and everybody has a different philosophy.

(13:34):
Whether you bring in guys who were at big time
programs maybe not playing that much, or you bring in
like an FCS super team kind of like they did
in New Mexico and had a historic season. There's a
lot of different ways to do it, and I think
everybody kind of has their own philosophy.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
But it's created a great deal of.

Speaker 8 (13:54):
Chaos, There's no doubt about it, and it makes it
so you can't develop a football team that we all
like players having power and players making money and all
these things, but a lot of the product of those
changes has been not great for the product of the sport,

(14:15):
which means players don't get developed properly. Players are always
having their head on a swivel for the next opportunity
to try to make more money, and who can blame them?
And you're giving very young people, very adult money and
asking him to make very adult decisions. And I think
we see the detritus of that in all the negative stories.

(14:39):
The story from Washington is pretty crazy because he signed
a contract right and then LSU clearly just came over
the top and offered.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Him more money. And he took it.

Speaker 8 (14:53):
So now obviously he can't play for Washington no matter
what they hold him to. They can't force him to.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
Play for you dub.

Speaker 8 (15:02):
But at the same time, they probably can cause a
lot of chaos for him and cause litigation or whatever happens.

Speaker 6 (15:10):
I'm not even sure him and Jed Fish have the
same agent.

Speaker 8 (15:13):
I think, yeah, so they're gonna have to deal with
that and figure that out and give some of the
money back or whatever. But I mean, I know for
a fact that a guy did a deal. Just it
happens all the time. With that second portal, when it
was still open, the kicker from UTSA got a truck
and like fifty thousand.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Dollars, we were told.

Speaker 8 (15:35):
And then and then at the last day of the
transfer portal, he took his truck and his fifty g's
and he went to Oklahoma. And you can't get that
money back. You can't sue for it, or there's no
legal place to sue for it. It's nil money. It
just exists in the ether. And then a lot of
the time, whenever they report that this guy's getting this

(15:56):
amount of money, it's not accurate. And even if it
is accurate, he might not end up getting paid that
amount of money, and who knows if he's going to
be able to retrieve it or not. So I would
say that it's it's the most chaotic time in the
history of.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
College football, without a doubt.

Speaker 8 (16:11):
But I think people maybe the situation with the Washington
quarterback is going to be a touchstone for a breaking point.
I'm not sure, but it'll be interesting to see how
it plays out.

Speaker 9 (16:22):
Yeah, we saw something similar.

Speaker 10 (16:23):
We talked about earlier this week with the Georgia defensive end.
I believe who's is going to Missouri kind of similar
in how the collective is suing the player basically for
a clause within its contract for liquidated damages.

Speaker 9 (16:37):
So all these things are precedent.

Speaker 8 (16:39):
Setting happened between Wisconsin and somebody too last year, that
it happens with lower profile if it happens with the quarterback,
though it makes the news, you know, if it happens
with a d ND or a safety or something like that,
guys like us know about it. But maybe this will
be a bigger story because it's a quarterback.

Speaker 2 (16:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (16:59):
I was going to ask you, just in regards to
Brennan sorosby you called there UCF game since now UCF.

Speaker 6 (17:04):
Yeah, and he just cash out.

Speaker 9 (17:06):
He's going to be the next guy at Texas Tech.

Speaker 10 (17:08):
He supposedly, to your point of legitimacy, he reportedly signed
a deal for five million this upcoming season. When you
hear that, and I know we're old heads, so we're
talking from era where that wasn't what we were getting
or wasn't the deal. But do you did after seeing him?
Did you think like, oh, yeah, he should be the
highest played paid player in college football? Like that makes sense?

Speaker 8 (17:33):
You know, I liked him a lot, and I'd been
watching him for a couple of years. I did some
Cincinnati in the first year two or twenty twenty four,
twenty four, and liked him then and liked him last
year and thought that they ran him a whole lot
for a team that has the tenth highest paid quarterback

(17:56):
in college But I mean, he was like the tenth
or twelfth highest paid guy in the sport according to
a bunch of the different sources when he.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Was at Cincinnati. Right, So Cincinnati sitting there like, God,
what do we have to do?

Speaker 8 (18:10):
But if I was sores by, I wouldn't leave the
NIP I mean The Nip is an awesome place that
Brady told me about that it was great. And then
I went there and did a game and I loved
the Nip and they played that.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
Don't you know, I don't know. That's going to be
very difficult down to stretch.

Speaker 6 (18:32):
I don't know about that.

Speaker 10 (18:33):
You know, if you're down all bro, they got some
they got some strong chance.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Do you know the other one?

Speaker 5 (18:38):
They do?

Speaker 3 (18:38):
And then oh.

Speaker 6 (18:44):
Oh oh I'm sorry, wrong, wrong school.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
There it is right hard?

Speaker 6 (18:50):
Oh come on.

Speaker 12 (18:59):
Yeah, come on, yeah, come on, Petros, come on, yeah, Petros,
I like it.

Speaker 6 (19:12):
First time I'm hearing it, but I like it. Oh
you broke the chance? Chairs out of here.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
I never like him. I never thrust him. For all
I know, he had me set up and my friend
Andrew Fernando's kill. But that's engineers.

Speaker 6 (19:27):
Petros.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
Do you find yourself rooting for old miss to get
this done without Lange?

Speaker 13 (19:32):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (19:32):
Yeah, I think, you know, Like there's always kind of
like a dark like last year. It was interesting because
I mean, most people don't think of Notre Dame as
kind of like an underdog story, ever, but Notre Dame
became a bit of a darling last year. In the
college Football Playoff, and I think it helped the college
football play out out out a lot to have Notre

(19:53):
Dame in four of their games, the biggest brand in.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
All of football.

Speaker 8 (19:57):
So I think, yeah, there's all somebody to root for
and somebody interesting out there, and it's a bit of
a breath of fresh air.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
The final four.

Speaker 8 (20:07):
I think that we can all be excited about just
hope for really competitive, fun games to watch with a
lot of controversy and a lot of things to discuss.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
I think that'll be great. But I didn't.

Speaker 8 (20:19):
I liked Soresby when I saw him, and I figured
he would be a hot commodity in the portal. But
seven million dollars or whatever, six million.

Speaker 2 (20:31):
I mean, I wouldn't say that.

Speaker 8 (20:34):
Five Yeah, that seems like that seems exorbitant for the
old Soresby. But at least they ran him. You know,
you got to run. If you run these everybody runs
these one back backfields and the quarterback is your other
running back, You've got to put that out there as
a threat. I mean, I think that's something that my
alma mater didn't do at all this year. USC They

(20:57):
didn't run their big quarterback. Probably to help him out
in a lot of situations. But they did that a
bunch at Cincinnati. They ran him around and he was
tough and not afraid so and he throws the ball
very well. And he seems to have great leadership ability.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
So I like Soresby there.

Speaker 6 (21:13):
He is the great. Petros Papa day gis with us
year on Fox.

Speaker 8 (21:17):
Patrick New Year, Jonas. I think you're great too. I

Speaker 8 (21:29):
Things get a little weird between Mario and uh and
Olivia Garvey the other night, you know, they got a
little I heard a report that things got a little
awkward out there on the set.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
There might be some trouble.

Speaker 6 (21:41):
We'll talk later. Oh wow, we'll talk later.

Speaker 9 (21:46):
Patros, thanks for putting Jonas at his place.

Speaker 6 (21:49):
I do appreciate when you come on and do that

Speaker 10 (21:51):
What do you mean he gets away with murder on
the show Murder, LaVar will tell you behind the scenes.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
You know what.

Speaker 8 (21:59):
Somebody took a real on it and we were talking
about the pizzas on the show blow Torch, and somebody
was like, you know what, you should have gotten Petros
another thumb raise come on.

Speaker 6 (22:11):
I was like no, I was like two years ago,
I haven't been wearing a thumb. That was a phase.
Yeah it's over.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
You must have left it somewhere.

Speaker 6 (22:17):
I've advanced. Yeah, I did leave it somewhere. I almost
said something that was gonna get dumped.

Speaker 7 (22:23):
Oh wow, Yeah that was mentioned in the studio today too,
by the way, Okay, yeah, of course, all.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Right, Petros, we appreciate it. Get him on X at
the old p the coast of the Petros Money Show,
which you can hear it's Fox called Football Analyst. Uh
here on f SR, and let me tell you something.
Here's a game day tip. I'n't sure the pizza hut
before the quarterback shouts the first and if you're hungry,

(22:56):
Big New Yorkers got those giant foldable slices, and right

Speaker 5 (26:58):
Good morning, so fine, the music, music, good life.

Speaker 15 (27:04):
Alone.

Speaker 5 (27:07):
I know, no, no, no, I'm still good and I'm all good.

Speaker 15 (27:09):
I'm trying to figure out who's gonna be on our
team next year watching all this happen.

Speaker 4 (27:15):
What what happened to you guys in that game?

Speaker 11 (27:17):
By the way, didn't we cover this last week?

Speaker 5 (27:20):
I was trying to figure that out.

Speaker 6 (27:21):
We did here for it.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
I think we did cover it.

Speaker 6 (27:25):
Can you tell me?

Speaker 4 (27:26):
Can you can you tell me I'm a big tenor
you're a big tenor you.

Speaker 11 (27:29):
Know, yeah, I don't think. I don't think there's any secret.

Speaker 15 (27:32):
You know, Miami won the game at line of scrimmage
and you know, like Ruben Days a heck of a
football player, that that offensive that right tackle they have
is a brick wall. And you know, we'll see how
it looks tonight against Old miss. But yeah, I mean,
I mean the LeVar LeVar is a line of scrimmage game,

(27:52):
right it is?

Speaker 11 (27:54):
And Miami won that game.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
An I could dig it. I could dig it, you
know the line? Oh God, who you're rooting for?

Speaker 6 (28:04):
Miss?

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (28:05):
I don't know.

Speaker 15 (28:06):
I mean, well, I'm rooting for the Big ten teams.
So like whether it's Indiana or Oregon, Like I I hope.

Speaker 11 (28:12):
The Big Ten brings home another championship.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
That'd be three in a row, right You know.

Speaker 11 (28:16):
It's interesting though, so.

Speaker 15 (28:17):
If Miami wins tonight, that would be three straight years
with no SEC team in the title game, right.

Speaker 6 (28:25):
Well yeah, but they're the best conference right right?

Speaker 11 (28:28):
Well yeah, it just means more. It's uh, you know
when they when when.

Speaker 5 (28:32):
They don't win games.

Speaker 15 (28:33):
Or they don't win you know that they don't win
in the playoffs, that's just because they weren't trying, right like, right, So, well, then.

Speaker 6 (28:40):
There's the other adage.

Speaker 10 (28:42):
They try to stack the deck with five teams to
get him in because they want to make sure they
show that their conference is the best. And meanwhile, through
the playoff in ball season, we've seen that's clearly not
the case.

Speaker 11 (28:52):
Yeah, they're they're they're they're the deepest.

Speaker 15 (28:54):
Unless they choose not to win the bowl games, right like,
because that's that's.

Speaker 5 (28:58):
The only way.

Speaker 15 (28:59):
Either either the bowl games show how strong the SEC
was or they weren't taking the bowl game seriously, so
those don't count.

Speaker 10 (29:06):
Yeah, they're the only team that has opt outs. There's
no other team that has opt outs. It's just SEC
teams in that conference.

Speaker 15 (29:13):
But Brady, they are, they're undefeated in hypothetical games.

Speaker 6 (29:18):
That is correct.

Speaker 9 (29:18):
They've won the last national championships in hypothetical games.

Speaker 5 (29:22):
That's right. That's right.

Speaker 7 (29:23):
Well, let's talk about what's going on in Baltimore. You know,
obviously Harball and the Ravens mutually agreed to part ways.
Do you have any insight that isn't maybe being discussed
or maybe just was obvious that, you know, led to this,

(29:45):
the demise of Harball, So I think like.

Speaker 11 (29:49):
It's just sort of maybe run its course.

Speaker 15 (29:52):
I think there are a couple of things to look
at here LeVar right. I think the first thing is
the level of expectation coming into the year, right, which
there were people in that building who felt like this
might be the best roster.

Speaker 11 (30:03):
We've had in a couple of decades. And they've had
some really good teams there.

Speaker 15 (30:07):
Over the years, but they really felt like this was
the team, right, And.

Speaker 11 (30:12):
So you know, there are there are reasons.

Speaker 15 (30:14):
The record wasn't great, and you know, you lose Lamar
for a chunk of the season that's going to obviously
contribute to it.

Speaker 5 (30:21):
They had a rash of injuries there.

Speaker 15 (30:24):
For a few weeks. I think it was in October
when they hit the skids, and so there's reason for it.
But you finished eight and nine and you had a
chance to get in the playoffs and you don't do it. So,
you know, not living up to expectations in a year
when the expectations were sky high internally, I think as
part of it. The other piece of it that I
think you know is and I know this has been

(30:44):
There's been a lot of back and forth on this
over the last couple of days, so I'm going to
do my best to clarify it as far as I know.
I do think John Harbaugh is the player's coach, and
I think if you talk to the people who've played
for him, most of them love him, right, And he's
been over the years adaptable, he's changed schemes, he's he's

(31:05):
adjusted the way he does things.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
The thing about it, though, is that I think.

Speaker 15 (31:10):
And I think Jim's this way too, but John certainly is.
It just takes a certain type of player to play
in his program.

Speaker 5 (31:17):
Right.

Speaker 15 (31:18):
It's a tough, demanding program. And listen, he will listen
to his players, he will cater to his players, he
will make things work for his players from a scheme standpoint,
He'll do.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
Everything as players need.

Speaker 15 (31:29):
But I think it just takes a certain type of
guy to play in that program. And for years and
years and years and years he had it in Baltimore,
and I'm just not sure over the last couple of
years that it was quite the same, you know, and
and and look like you can lay the blame off
for that on a bunch of different things, But I

(31:52):
just it just felt like, you know, when you talk
to people about the way this was towards the end
of the year, there might have been a little bit
more of a disconnect there and just do the players
that we have now, who are really good players, but
do the players that we have now match up with
the program the same way it was, say five years
ago or ten years ago.

Speaker 5 (32:13):
And so, you know, I think that's.

Speaker 15 (32:14):
Sort of you know, where those discussions went over, you know,
the afternoon that he and Steve Bashatti sat down and met,
and you know, obviously the decision you know, that.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
They arrived at was that it was just time.

Speaker 15 (32:28):
For everybody to move on after eighteen years.

Speaker 5 (32:30):
And I don't think there's any acrimony there.

Speaker 15 (32:32):
I think he's going to be obviously, his name is
going to be up in the Ring of Honor in
Baltimore someday, and there were a lot of players in
that locker room who were very sad to see him go.
But I just I just feel feel like for that
reason this that they decided that this was time.

Speaker 10 (32:48):
A couple of things we talked about or have been
talking about, is the contract situation for Lamar, He's got
a huge capita in twenty twenty six, they obviously have
to restructure that he doesn't have any representation. And it's
just kind of wondering because there was times where it
felt like the media was trying to pit it like
basically being Lamar or John Harbaugh. And if that's the case,

(33:12):
I mean, obviously Lamar won out, or at least he was,
you know, ultimately who ended.

Speaker 6 (33:16):
Up surviving this.

Speaker 10 (33:18):
Yeah, but what do you make of kind of moving forward,
like what this is going to look like as far
as the coach they're going to pro to coach them,
and then what the contract's going to look like?

Speaker 15 (33:25):
Yeah, So so like let's start with the contract, because
I do think that affects the play, right, Like, and
I had somebody point out to me that somebody who
knows this situation pretty intimately point out to me that,
you know, like Lamar, the years when he's missed time
due to injury have been years when he's when when

(33:46):
the contract's been uncertain, right, So was twenty one and
twenty two and then this year right and then and
and and it's just I mean it's just something that
that that those are facts, right, like, so that's out there.
So like, I think part of this for the Ravens
is all right, like are we going to do a
new contract with him? Which they looked at the idea

(34:08):
of doing it in the last off season after Josh
Allen got his contract.

Speaker 5 (34:11):
Correction, they don't do it.

Speaker 15 (34:14):
They get like a little bit of a diminished version
of Lamar. And I think, you know, now the question
for the Ravens has to be if we don't do
because again, because the way he plays the position is
so different, you know, and and he's taken on so
much more damage than than most quarterbacks.

Speaker 5 (34:31):
Of his level of experience have.

Speaker 15 (34:34):
If we don't do a contract with him, are we
going to get a diminished version of them?

Speaker 5 (34:38):
Are we going to have another sideways year?

Speaker 11 (34:40):
And so I think those are all questions you.

Speaker 5 (34:41):
Have to ask. You do two million dollars this coming.

Speaker 15 (34:44):
Year, most of it's guaranteed. He's doing fifty two million
dollars in twenty twenty seven, None of that's guaranteed.

Speaker 5 (34:51):
So that's what's bucks on his contract.

Speaker 11 (34:53):
So do you go back.

Speaker 9 (34:54):
You've got a seventy four and a half million dollar
capet this year.

Speaker 11 (34:58):
Right, and do you do you go so do you
go in?

Speaker 5 (35:01):
Do you go in and.

Speaker 15 (35:02):
Say, yep, you're going to be our quarterback for the
next four or five years, because that's what you're going
to have to like, that's what you're going to be
looking at.

Speaker 5 (35:09):
Right. Do you go in and do you do that right?

Speaker 15 (35:12):
And say, okay, like we're gonna we're going.

Speaker 11 (35:14):
To do a deal you know that's going to have like.

Speaker 15 (35:18):
An average, a new money average of sixty five million
dollars and commit to you for the next four or
five years based on some of the you know again
like the historic amount of damage he's taken on just
in the way that he plays the position and what
you got this year. And you know, like if that
contract negotiation goes to a little sideways and that becomes.

Speaker 11 (35:41):
Public at all, like okay, like.

Speaker 15 (35:43):
Now are the Raiders calling or the Dolphins calling? You know,
are you getting calls from different teams organically?

Speaker 11 (35:49):
You know, like is that just happening? And how do
you respond to all that?

Speaker 15 (35:52):
So I think all that's complicated, and you know, the
first step and kind of showing Lamar where you stand
with all this is going to be hiring and the
head coach. So does this caused you to look a
little bit more at offensive coaches? You know, offensive minded
coaches who you know are going to be working directly
with Lamar? Like these are all questions that I think

(36:13):
we have to ask based on the history between the
team and the player. And Lamar has obviously been an
unbelievable player there, two time MVP. But you know, with
John Harbaugh gone, now like I think you know, the
next question becomes okay, and Brady, you asked it, the
next question becomes okay, like now that John's gone, with

(36:34):
Lamar's future.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
Here, it's Albert Brier joining us here on Fox Sports Radio,
senior NFL reporter, Lead Content Strategies at the MMQB.

Speaker 6 (36:42):
Get him on X at Albert.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
Breer, Abe, what have you heard, if anything about coaches
coaching this weekend in the NFL that with a loss
could be a name to watch as a potential casualty.

Speaker 15 (36:58):
I mean, I think a lot of people are going
to be looking at Tom one just because of what
just happened with Harbaugh. I don't think it's like on
the Steelers' minds right now, like the idea like okay.

Speaker 5 (37:11):
Like are we moving on?

Speaker 15 (37:13):
But I do think like that's again like naturally going
to come up as part of the conversation when you're
talking about potentially, you know, turning the page of quarterback.

Speaker 5 (37:22):
If that's what happens. You know, I don't think you.

Speaker 15 (37:25):
Know, it's one hundred percent that Aaron's not coming.

Speaker 5 (37:27):
Back, that Aaron's retiring, but you know, like.

Speaker 15 (37:31):
You obviously have to prepare, prepare for the eventuality of that.
And you know, if you don't have Aaron rodgers's your quarterback?

Speaker 5 (37:38):
Who's your quarterback?

Speaker 15 (37:39):
And what does that mean for some of the older
players on your team, you know, like a Jalen Ramsey,
you know Cam Hayward, you know, is is t J.

Speaker 5 (37:51):
Watt back?

Speaker 15 (37:52):
You know, like if you're if you're starting over at quarterback,
you know, or there's not like a clear answer at
quarterback going into next year.

Speaker 11 (37:59):
You know, can you listen if somebody calls.

Speaker 5 (38:01):
On t J. Watt?

Speaker 2 (38:02):
You know?

Speaker 5 (38:03):
Like so I think I think that like when you
get to that point where you're.

Speaker 15 (38:07):
Going to be going through that with all of your
older players, the natural question attached to that is like, okay,
like if Mike Tomlin going to be the one that's
going to rebuild this And if you're Tomlin, wouldn't you say, Okay,
would I rather go through this with uncertainty a quarterback?
Or do I want to go do TV for a year?
And if I go do TV for a year, maybe
I come back in twenty twenty seven and I go

(38:29):
to a place with a quarterback and I.

Speaker 5 (38:32):
You know, I get a I have a great second
act there. You know. I think these are all these
are all.

Speaker 15 (38:37):
Questions that could be asked, you know, whenever they get eliminated,
but they're still in it. But that will be the
one that I would look at and.

Speaker 5 (38:44):
Say, Okay, like if there's someone coming out of.

Speaker 15 (38:47):
This weekend, that'd be the most obvious one where you
might see a change.

Speaker 11 (38:50):
Are you looking at the other ones and thinking something
could happen?

Speaker 4 (38:54):
But maybe McDermott, Yeah, McDermott would be one, would be
the one.

Speaker 5 (38:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (38:58):
So McDermott will be the one one.

Speaker 11 (39:01):
Yeah, I think like that one. So I think there's
a lot.

Speaker 15 (39:07):
Of pressure on a lot of people there because of
the position that they're in, right and because there's no
Lamar Jackson, there's no Joe Burrow, there's no Patrick Mahomes
in the AFC playoffs, right, So he basically like removed
what's prevented the Bills from from getting to the Super
Bowl over the last five or six years. And so

(39:28):
you know, certainly there's pressure on everyone to maximize where
they're at right now with Josh Allen.

Speaker 11 (39:35):
So like, I don't think the internal.

Speaker 15 (39:37):
Conversation has risen to the level of like, yeah, we're
going to move on from him, but like I do
think like that natural pressure is there. And the comparison
I've made, guys is to Tony Dungeye in Tampa twenty
five years ago, you know, and like if you remember,
if you remember, like Tony Dungeye and when I was

(39:57):
a kid, and you know LeVar, Like I mean, you
guys remember this, Like the Bucks were about as.

Speaker 11 (40:04):
Big a laughing stock as there was in all of sports.

Speaker 15 (40:07):
They were terrible and Tony but Tony Dungee got there
and he completely changed the face of the organization and
he won, and he got the playoffs and they were
knocking on the door and eventually, like with that corps
of defensive players, you're Derek Brooks, Warren Sapp, John Lynch,
Rende Barber. You know, ownership looked at it says like,

(40:29):
we have to maximize this, and they kind of felt
the clock picking on that, and despite everything that Tony
Dungee had done for them, you know, eventually got to
the point where like, Okay, we have to do something.
And I think it was after he'd been there for
seven years. They wind up blocking away. They pursued Bill Parcells,
they don't wind up getting him.

Speaker 11 (40:46):
They trade for John Cruden and obviously they won.

Speaker 15 (40:50):
The Super Bowl the next year, and so are the
Bills at that point with Sean McDermott. Would be the
biggest question I would have, you know, and are they
going to get to that point where you know, the
little different but it's the same, right Like where in
Tampa was you have this group of players.

Speaker 5 (41:05):
It's creating this opportunity to a pepe for.

Speaker 15 (41:07):
A championship, and man like, we better take advantage of
it while we have it.

Speaker 5 (41:11):
You know.

Speaker 15 (41:11):
Obviously in Buffalo it's a single player.

Speaker 5 (41:13):
It's Josh Allen, you know. I mean, we'll see what happens.

Speaker 15 (41:17):
I I think, like if they lose in ugly fashion
to Jacksonville on Sunday, I mean, I guess I wouldn't
rule out the idea of the dynamic had change there.

Speaker 6 (41:30):
What about.

Speaker 7 (41:32):
Come on, man, why are we until you're talking about
how Yeah, this has been happening a lot lately. By
the way, we've been saying the same exact stuff at
the same exact It's crazy, all right.

Speaker 6 (41:46):
But what about La Floor? What about the goat packers?

Speaker 15 (41:49):
Yeah, so I think with that, with that one, it's contractual,
right like, so they have a negotiation coming with him,
and so there's.

Speaker 11 (41:59):
A contractual part of it.

Speaker 15 (42:01):
And you know, i'd say with the new team.

Speaker 11 (42:04):
President there, it does create a.

Speaker 15 (42:06):
Little less certainty where you know, Mark Murphy was there
for almost twenty years, then Mark Murphy hired Matt Lafleur,
and then Policy is now the president. So you know,
like that transition happened over the summer. It was an
internal hire. So it's not like Ed Policy doesn't know
Matt Lafleur.

Speaker 11 (42:23):
But the fact that he decided not in.

Speaker 15 (42:26):
The moment to extend Lafleur and the general manager, Brian Guducuns,
at least leaves open the possibility that there could eventually
be a change.

Speaker 11 (42:38):
And you know, I think.

Speaker 15 (42:39):
What's what's interesting about Lafleur is the connections he has
to Matt Ryan, And you know, I sort of wonder
if like the Falcons wind up doing what everybody think's
going to do, which is, you know, they've got their
interviews for the president role today and tomorrow, and if
everybody if they do what everybody thinks we're going to do,

(43:01):
which is hire Matt Ryan over the weekend as a
president of football offs and Matt Ryan, you know, I think,
winds up hiring somebody like Ian Cunninghamason as a general manager.
Do they look at it and say, you know, we
want to do something bold? And you guys know who
Matt Ryan's position coach was here.

Speaker 5 (43:20):
He wanted to a.

Speaker 7 (43:21):
Good call, Yeah, Matt Lafloor.

Speaker 15 (43:26):
Yeah, so Matt Lafleur was there.

Speaker 11 (43:28):
So I mean, if you're Matt Ryan and you're saying, okay,
like we want to we want to do something that's
going to make.

Speaker 5 (43:34):
A splash and kind.

Speaker 15 (43:35):
Of establish us, do you pick up the phone to
call the packers if they lose this weekend and say like, hey,
what would it take for us to get him out
of there?

Speaker 2 (43:45):
You know?

Speaker 15 (43:46):
And if if the Packers are in a position where
they're saying like, well, we're not sure we want to
do a contract right now with the Ford do they
listen and they have a guy on their staff and
Jeff Haffley who's going to be sought after to be
a head coach, and maybe they think a lot.

Speaker 5 (44:01):
It's just there's this sliding doors thing.

Speaker 15 (44:03):
So I don't think they're going to fire the floor,
but I do think like the contract situation being what
it is, could create some of these moving parts and
we'll see what happens.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Again.

Speaker 15 (44:16):
Again, I don't think he I don't think he's going
to get fired if they lose over the weekend. But
could there be a scenario or something like that that happens.

Speaker 5 (44:23):
I certainly think so.

Speaker 15 (44:24):
Because there aren't a ton of obvious candidates now.

Speaker 5 (44:28):
There are more now than there were a couple of
weeks ago.

Speaker 15 (44:30):
With Harbon and Stefanski out there, but there aren't like
these obvious candidates.

Speaker 11 (44:35):
We're like, yes, that guy has slammed NK.

Speaker 15 (44:37):
So I do think some of these teams are going
to have to think a little bit more creatively.

Speaker 10 (44:41):
Albert, I want to ask you about the timing of
what you just said. Matt Ryan's involvement with the Falcons
predated the Richard McKay firing, and so I wasn't clear
what his position or role would be. But now you're
saying he's interviewing for the president.

Speaker 15 (44:57):
It's president of football operations.

Speaker 10 (45:00):
Haven't correct, But they had already announced that he was
going to be joining the organization before that.

Speaker 11 (45:05):
No, they haven't announced anything yet.

Speaker 5 (45:06):
He's interviewing, he's he's he's interviewing. So they have four
guys in, four other guys in over the next two days.

Speaker 11 (45:15):
I know what you're saying that they haven't announced anything,
so so that that's not part of the organization yet,
Like he's actually.

Speaker 9 (45:23):
Report then they just knew that they were going to
tab him at some point.

Speaker 5 (45:27):
All right, Well, what I think?

Speaker 11 (45:28):
What Jay?

Speaker 15 (45:28):
I don't want to put words in Jay's mouth that
I think Jay reported.

Speaker 11 (45:31):
When when it initially came out, I want.

Speaker 15 (45:33):
To say Jay reported that they were looking at bringing
him into the organization.

Speaker 5 (45:37):
In some capacity. It was it was pretty gray in
that way. It wasn't it wasn't black and white.

Speaker 7 (45:43):
Interesting, Uh, They they retained bowls in Tampa. We asked
the question earlier, does he go into next season as
a lame duckade coach?

Speaker 3 (45:55):
What say you? I?

Speaker 15 (46:00):
Well, they've already extended him, so lame duck, like by
the letter of what that means.

Speaker 5 (46:05):
No, he's not lame duck because he he did just
get an extension.

Speaker 15 (46:10):
But I do think that there's pressure on him. I
think there's pressure on a lot.

Speaker 5 (46:13):
Of people there. I mean, you know, I I.

Speaker 15 (46:16):
Think like one of the big questions I'd have going
forward is like what they're going to do with Baker
Mayfield now, because.

Speaker 11 (46:22):
He's like twenty twenty six is a.

Speaker 5 (46:24):
Contract here for Baker.

Speaker 15 (46:26):
So I think we were all thinking, like in September
and October, of course they're going to resign him, and
I think they still will. But is that a little
bit more difficult of a negotiation now based on how
the last you know, two months of.

Speaker 11 (46:39):
The season went.

Speaker 5 (46:40):
It might be you know, so.

Speaker 11 (46:43):
Yeah, I mean I think if if.

Speaker 15 (46:46):
You're Todd Bowles, the fact that like, and you know,
I always feel this way guys, right, like like it's
like the same thing with like what Indianapolis did with
Shane stick and Chris Dollard. When there needs to be
an announce Smith that the team is keeping you on
That means you're that.

Speaker 11 (47:05):
Means you are on the hot seats going.

Speaker 5 (47:07):
Into the next year, you.

Speaker 6 (47:08):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 11 (47:08):
Like like, for example, like the Patriots are.

Speaker 15 (47:12):
Not announcing that Mike Rabel will be back next year, you.

Speaker 5 (47:15):
Know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (47:15):
The Bronx, the Dolphin.

Speaker 15 (47:21):
Yeah, the Broncos are not announcing, but my McDaniel might
not be. I mean, I think that John harbaughton complicates that.

Speaker 5 (47:27):
I mean, I I would.

Speaker 11 (47:28):
Say this with Mike McDaniel in Miami, right, Like, So,
they put.

Speaker 15 (47:33):
Out five interview requests for general manager candidates on Monday, right,
All five of those guys had connections to McDaniel, All
five of them, right, whether it was through McDaniel's friends
or they'd worked with McDaniel directly, they all had connections
to McDaniels. Then on Tuesday, the Dolphins turned around and

(47:55):
put in an interview request for the Chargers assistant general manager,
had Alexander who does who would the Charger's assistant.

Speaker 5 (48:03):
General manager work with?

Speaker 15 (48:07):
Yep, so and so like do you see that and
say the Dolphins had like some sort of tip off
that John Harbaugh was about to become available, So they're
preparing themselves for the possibility that they wind up with Harbor,
which would mean that they would have to get a
general manager that would line up with him.

Speaker 5 (48:29):
Like I I can just tell you.

Speaker 15 (48:30):
You know, you see and Brady were down there.

Speaker 5 (48:34):
You don't you don't need me to tell you.

Speaker 15 (48:36):
Steve Ross, you know, has you know, has connections to
the Harbaugh family, and you know, he made a run
at getting gim in. I think it was two thousand
and ten or eleven before he went.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
To the Niners.

Speaker 11 (48:49):
I think was two thousand, I think it was ten,
tried to get.

Speaker 5 (48:52):
Him out of Stanford.

Speaker 11 (48:53):
It didn't, it didn't.

Speaker 15 (48:54):
It didn't happen at the time, and then you know,
had had discussions about trying to get John. I think
it was in twenty eighteen or twenty nineteen when the
when the Ravens and Harbaugh weren't a contract negotiation. So
I would I would certainly not rule out the Dolphins.

Speaker 11 (49:11):
Making you know, a run.

Speaker 5 (49:13):
And the thing.

Speaker 11 (49:14):
That's tricky about is like how do you pull that off?

Speaker 8 (49:16):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (49:17):
Like, so, if you only.

Speaker 15 (49:19):
Are firing McDaniel, if you're going to wind up with John,
then you need to get a commitment, a quiet commitment
from John. So you have to have had something worked
out with John and then you fire Mike and you've.

Speaker 5 (49:32):
Got to satisfy the Rooney rule.

Speaker 15 (49:34):
It can be kind of complicated to do that.

Speaker 7 (49:37):
But.

Speaker 5 (49:39):
You know, I would say I would.

Speaker 15 (49:41):
Say that there's not a zero percent chance as that happens.

Speaker 6 (49:45):
Wow, good stuff.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter, lead content strategist at the MMQB.
Get him on X at Albert Brier and yeah, we
don't care that they're eliminated.

Speaker 11 (49:56):
All right, you can keep playing the bite song you
I don't know he was gonna be on the team,
but you.

Speaker 5 (50:00):
Guys to keep finding by a dog.

Speaker 6 (50:02):
Yeah, you're fine. Yeah, everything.

Speaker 15 (50:05):
It seems like it seems like everything that's happening in
the transfer port portal right now is super rational.

Speaker 10 (50:10):
Huh Well, let me ask you this, like, how many
teams has that really worked out for?

Speaker 9 (50:14):
I mean, maybe you'd say it has so far this
year for Old Miss and maybe some.

Speaker 4 (50:18):
Others, but Miami, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (50:20):
It's Mimmy got back.

Speaker 10 (50:22):
I mean, he hasn't been leading the way and they
had some of those guys going on that I don't.

Speaker 15 (50:28):
I don't think it's good for the players either, To
be honest with you, like I'm.

Speaker 5 (50:31):
All four players getting paid.

Speaker 15 (50:32):
Don't get me wrong, but like I think this is
gonna be so destructive, destructive for the players too, And
I yeah, I mean it's just the whole thing, is
that the whole thing's a complete mass, you know, right
down to and I would say this too, like I
think it's in the long run, it's gonna wind up
affecting a lot of kids' ability to develop.

Speaker 11 (50:53):
And you know, like the NFL doesn't.

Speaker 5 (50:56):
Really develop you, you know what I mean, Like.

Speaker 15 (50:59):
Unless you're restaurant pick or the two of you guys were,
you know, most guys that come into the NFL, you know,
you're instantly fighting for a job and they're not going
to give you four or five years to develop. And
so if you're not doing it in college, I don't know.
It just it seems like it's not good for the sport.
It's not good for the players. I know that there
are some people that are profiting for it but from it,

(51:20):
but it just feels to me like we need to meet,
we need to get ah, we need to have somebody
in charge, whether that's Nick Saban, whoever else to to
to to come in and be the commissioner of college football.
And clean this mess up. Maybe you could do it, Brady,
What do you think.

Speaker 10 (51:37):
Well, first off, you don't have the guard rolls that
you need up right now. I mean there's no no
commissioner walking right now is going to have any power
because there's no entity over top.

Speaker 9 (51:45):
Of any of this that's gonna start what's happening.

Speaker 10 (51:47):
So until you have some sort of anti trust protection,
until you get to the point where like these guys
are viewed as employees or everyone define them and they
can work out a CBA, none of it matters because
they're just going to take you to court every single
time and they're probably going to.

Speaker 15 (52:02):
Win, right right right, So anyway, rip college football?

Speaker 2 (52:08):
All right?

Speaker 6 (52:10):
Way to stick the landing?

Speaker 5 (52:12):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (52:12):
There he is Albert Breer with us here on Fox
Sports Radio. Thanks Apple, do it again next week there
is It is two Pros and a cup of Joe

Speaker 6 (52:22):
Up next, we continue the conversation.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
The playoff is back and it's yours tonight right here
on FSR.

Speaker 7 (52:29):
You know what's going on tonight with that big game
that's almost hair well, we're talking about some Louisiana hot sauce,
that's right. Yeah, These players are made of grit. You know,
they have drive a whole lot of heart. So does
original Louisiana Hot Sauce because it's made with real good

(52:50):
stuff too, you know, only like three simple ingredients that
make it uh special. In fact, I'm going to make
some ribs this morning, and I'm going to use that
Louisa Hot sauce on them to season them up, and
I will actually mix it into my own home special
sauce for the finish. And go imagine that I'm gonna

(53:12):
mix a little something something with a little dab of
something something to go with that original Louisiana Hot sauce.

Speaker 4 (53:18):
For my rub.

Speaker 7 (53:19):
And you know what, you could do the same exact
thing on your wings, your pizzas, your gumbo. You know,
time seems to slow down when you use Original Louisiana
Hot Sauce because it's just that good and it's super simple.
So listen, when you can't put your finger quite on
what made it so amazing on your tongue, just think

(53:43):
about the Original Louisiana Hot Sauce and how it's championship
pedigree has well, it's almost been for one hundred years
and it's got no signs of slowing down, and then
you'll be okay with the conclusion that you came to
and that you taste Budgs was telling you, and you'd
be like, Wow, that Louisiana legacy. It's delicious, over and

(54:03):
over and over again. But don't take my word for it.
Go get you some week. Some original Louisiana hot sauce
is made of that championship level stuff. Make sure you
check out the peppers, the vinegar, and the salt. That's
Louisiana Hot sauce, y'all. Make sure you're bat you some.

Quinn earlier and you let me know that the regular
season standings that was all just preseason.

Speaker 6 (55:43):
Why do you do this? We didn't have that conversation
like a short time.

Speaker 9 (55:47):
So here's the thing.

Speaker 10 (55:48):
Are we ending the regular season because I mean, there's
a chance you guys could come back, right.

Speaker 6 (55:54):
Well, I mean it's a new year, is there not?

Speaker 4 (55:58):
No, there's not.

Speaker 9 (56:00):
Okay, Then we end the regular week and.

Speaker 4 (56:01):
Do he won a regular We start and start posting
the season.

Speaker 2 (56:05):
There we go.

Speaker 6 (56:06):
That's fair, all right? So here we going? Now this one.

Speaker 4 (56:08):
I appreciate it. I will say that nature though, Jonas like,
that's I see that.

Speaker 6 (56:12):
Thanks, okay.

Speaker 10 (56:13):
I am going to deduct twenty dollars off of my
fines for winning the regular season.

Speaker 6 (56:19):
It's fair. What a second? How's that fair? When?

Speaker 9 (56:27):
What else am I going to get from you cheap asses?

Speaker 6 (56:29):
What do you tell we're going to do dinner?

Speaker 10 (56:31):
I know we're gonna go do dinner, but like, I mean,
you're probably not gonna pay up. You're at seventy dollars
by the way, or eight hundred and twenty one.

Speaker 7 (56:38):
Yeah, but you don't want if you said you pay
at the bar in Arizona, what do you really recall?

Speaker 4 (56:44):
You ever paying for anything?

Speaker 6 (56:45):
Never? Oh I never once, never paid for anything.

Speaker 4 (56:48):
I'm just making sure i'm asking.

Speaker 2 (56:51):
I'm asking.

Speaker 4 (56:51):
I'm not trying to be offensive.

Speaker 6 (56:52):
I was asking, what about Houston last year? Didn't pay
for nothing? Come on, man, you guys make me.

Speaker 10 (56:59):
Like he'll pay for at the bar, he'll pay for
a domestic, He'll pay for a domestic.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Here here's the thing. I'm willing to pay for other people,
just never for myself. You know what I mean, that's
why I drive the truck. I drive, all right, my
money goes elsewhere.

Speaker 4 (57:15):
That to me, that's kind of funny though, all right,
Like what if you went out and ordered like five
six seven drinks, you know what I mean, Like, I'll
pay for everybody else. I'm just like, we'll pay for me.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
Yeah, I'm just not I'm uncomfortable paying buying stuff for myself.
I'd rather take care of other people. But again, some
people are built different.

Speaker 6 (57:33):
I don't tell you dang.

Speaker 4 (57:35):
To be a ten dollars. Fine, right there, let's.

Speaker 6 (57:41):
Get let's let's get this going. All right, guys, it's
the Mill in Houston.

Speaker 17 (57:44):
You know, it's it's Wild Car Weekend everybody, and it's
a new era. So we're gonna start it off right
with the first game here, and the first game is Panthers.

Speaker 6 (57:56):
That's right.

Speaker 17 (57:56):
The Los Angeles Rams are on the road taking on
the Caroline. The Panthers Rams are a whopping ten and
a half point favorite.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
Do you guys know, Patty just kind of reverts to
the country Western accident.

Speaker 6 (58:10):
I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 9 (58:13):
It's weird that I tried to point this out earlier.

Speaker 10 (58:16):
It's like you automatically just go into this hole.

Speaker 6 (58:21):
I don't know, I don't know why it sticks, guys.
Maybe it's rid of that. Let's get, let's get let's
do another one.

Speaker 17 (58:28):
Yeah, all right, all right, so Jones, you go first.

Speaker 1 (58:36):
I'll take the Rams only because they've got to prove
that what happened the first time around against Carolina was
just a random fluky game in the rain, that all
this sort of weird stuff happened. I don't like the
fact that it's at ten and a half. I feel
like it could get closed and maybe I'll get back
door covered in this whole thing. But I'm gonna go

(58:56):
with the Rams the better team, and in my opinion,
I think it's the best team in the NFC Knocks Locks.

Speaker 6 (59:04):
Bet you like that back door cover win Chapal.

Speaker 10 (59:07):
I'm gonna take you ten and a half points here,
and it's important just because.

Speaker 9 (59:12):
Like the two playoff teams, you know, like as much
as we want to try to like.

Speaker 10 (59:17):
Act like there's that great separation between Carolina and the Rams,
this team can keep it close and they can keep
it within ten, right, So I'm gonna ahead and take
the ten and a half points of Carolina.

Speaker 2 (59:27):
Here the.

Speaker 7 (59:35):
Rams are traveling to Carolina, correct, right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
but the Carolina Panthers are the underdogs ten and a
half points, about ten and a half points. Not only
are the Rams going to struggle in this game, they're
going to lose.

Speaker 6 (59:55):
Oh geez, they're going to lose. Sticks picks, yep, money line.
There we are our first money line.

Speaker 4 (01:00:02):
Panthers.

Speaker 6 (01:00:03):
There you go all right on to the next year. Guys,
we have.

Speaker 7 (01:00:06):
Sneaky That's a sneaky one, right there, sneaky Panthers. They sneaky, Matt.

Speaker 6 (01:00:10):
You know what else is sneaky This game?

Speaker 3 (01:00:13):
Packers and Bears.

Speaker 6 (01:00:14):
That's right.

Speaker 17 (01:00:15):
We have the Green Bay Packers on the road taking
on Jonas's Chicago Bears. Packers are in fact one and
a half point favorites. Brady, you get to go first here.

Speaker 10 (01:00:25):
I will go with the Chicago Bears money line because
I want to take away some of some of Jonas's
ability to hype this game up and talk about this matchup.

Speaker 9 (01:00:34):
But I also this supposed to be a snowstorm in Chicago.
I just I don't know.

Speaker 10 (01:00:39):
I feel like the Bears can run the football against
the Packers in particular, and inclement climates. Caleb Williams makes
a few you know enough plays. Go ahead and give
me bears money.

Speaker 4 (01:00:50):
Line, whens, whens.

Speaker 6 (01:00:56):
All right, Jonas, you get to retort.

Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
Retort.

Speaker 6 (01:01:00):
Here we go, no report, I got the Bears on
the money line knocks locks. Great job, Jonas. Let's go vart.

Speaker 4 (01:01:17):
So you just did the same thing Q did well.

Speaker 6 (01:01:20):
He copied off my notes.

Speaker 9 (01:01:22):
Oh well, how's that possible?

Speaker 1 (01:01:25):
When I went at first he looked over my shoulder.

Speaker 6 (01:01:28):
You saw my notes?

Speaker 4 (01:01:30):
Yeah, he looked on Google.

Speaker 6 (01:01:32):
The Google that possible. We were standing in the journal
next to each other. He looked over my shoulder.

Speaker 4 (01:01:37):
And he told me, nice watch, and then you, yeah,
nice watch. The wrong restroom for me. Uh so uh,
I'm I'm going to take the Green Bay Packers to cover.

Speaker 3 (01:01:58):
The sticks picks.

Speaker 6 (01:02:00):
Allright, we love it here.

Speaker 17 (01:02:02):
Next one up, we have Lorena Bill said, Jaguars.

Speaker 6 (01:02:05):
That is right.

Speaker 17 (01:02:06):
The Buffalo Bills are on the road taking on the
Jacksonville Jaguars, and the Bills are in fact one half
point favorites on the road.

Speaker 6 (01:02:13):
Far you get to go first.

Speaker 7 (01:02:17):
Oh man, this is what my heart is really telling me.
And I know this sounds crazy, but I think Jacksonville
is going to going to win this game.

Speaker 2 (01:02:27):
I'm going to honey on sex Bis.

Speaker 17 (01:02:30):
Yeah, all right, que you get to go next.

Speaker 10 (01:02:35):
I'm going money line as well. I think the Jaguars
are the more total team right now. I've got concerns
about the Buffalo Bills defense. I don't think Josh Allen
can just do it all. So I'll go ahead take
the home underdog here in the Jaguars money line.

Speaker 3 (01:02:50):
When's Whens?

Speaker 4 (01:02:53):
God Lee such a long?

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
Let me finish, geez, you ain't lying. I want to
create a little bit of a difference here. I'm going
to take the Buffalo Bills. I think that the Bills
have the potential that if they win this game, they
could go on a run. I could see them going
on a little bit of a run. I will take
Buffalo such a minus one and a half here, locks

(01:03:22):
all right.

Speaker 4 (01:03:23):
If they win, they're going to go on a run.

Speaker 17 (01:03:25):
Like what Lord well, speaking of possibly trying to go
on a run. Here we have the next.

Speaker 3 (01:03:31):
Game, forty nine Ers hit Eagles.

Speaker 17 (01:03:34):
Alright, the forty nine ers San Francisco forty nine ers
are on the road taking on the Philadelphia Eagles. Eagles
are five and a half point favorites at home. Jonas, Jonas,
you get to go first.

Speaker 4 (01:03:46):
Sorry, LeVar, Yeah, I just know Jones. Just wait on me.
Good they're going to cover.

Speaker 17 (01:03:54):
The six picks, all right, Jonas, you get to go next.

Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
I'm looking at Philadelphia here. I think San Francisco got
exposed a little bit by Seattle. They took a beating.
I think Philly is getting slept.

Speaker 6 (01:04:11):
On a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
And while I like what Brock Purty has done, at
some point the injuries are going to become a factor
and more of a factor as the season goes on.
I think the great ride from Brock Party and Company
ends here. I got Philly by this five and a half.

Speaker 3 (01:04:28):
Well knocks locks, all right?

Speaker 10 (01:04:33):
This means yeah, three in a row, all picking Philly
lane five and a half. So San Francisco is probably
gonna win this one. But again, West Coast team coming
East Coast. I just feel like Philly knows how to
turn it on the postseason. Not that the forty nine
ers are limping here, but I trust Philly more.

Speaker 4 (01:04:48):
On this spot. So Twin's way, I think that's a
different one. Yeah, it's totally a different one. Like she
just re recorded that joint.

Speaker 17 (01:05:02):
Well, this is a games to go. Well, this is
a game that was not re recorded, but we have next.

Speaker 3 (01:05:09):
Chargers and Patriots.

Speaker 17 (01:05:11):
That's right, the Los Angeles Chargers are on the road
taking on the New England Patriots. Patriots are in fact
three and a half point favorites at home, and Jonas
you have the honors.

Speaker 6 (01:05:21):
Bolt up or bolt down.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
I'm gonna take the Chargers in this spot. And not
only am I taking the Chargers, I'm taking the Chargers
on the money line.

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
Knocks locks.

Speaker 6 (01:05:33):
All right, you get to go next.

Speaker 4 (01:05:35):
This is the hardest one for me to pick. Honestly,
I think they're very evenly matched. I think from coaching
down to personnel. So I think I'm gonna take the
home team on this one. So I'm gonna go with
New England to cover well, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
you know what.

Speaker 7 (01:05:53):
You know what, it's going to be too close, So
I'm actually going you said three three points three and
a half. Yeah, I'm gonna take the Chargers with the
points here though, like I'm not.

Speaker 4 (01:06:03):
Yeah, New England's gonna win, but not about more than three.

Speaker 3 (01:06:06):
So I'm gonna take stix picks.

Speaker 10 (01:06:09):
Brady the floor is yours, all right, I will be
the lone, lone man taking the home team the favorites
lant of three and a half points. Yea, I think
the Patriots at home, it's tough call for our charges team.
That again, I think they say they've struggled up front.
So the Patriots to me are the much better team.

Speaker 5 (01:06:24):
Thin.

Speaker 2 (01:06:24):
You're gonna prove him?

Speaker 17 (01:06:27):
Twins whens, all right, and we have bonus. We have
six today because of Wild Cards Final one, it.

Speaker 3 (01:06:35):
Is six Steelers.

Speaker 6 (01:06:38):
That's right.

Speaker 17 (01:06:39):
The Houston Texans are on the road taking on the
Pittsburgh Steelers. Texans are three point favorites on the road.
Brady get to go first.

Speaker 10 (01:06:49):
Look, they won, they got in and this is where
Aaron Rodgers and the mystique of Rogers comes into play here.
And that defense too, so low scoring game. I love
to under this game too, But money line, the Pittsburgh
Steelers upset the Houston Texans at home.

Speaker 3 (01:07:09):
Whins, when's.

Speaker 4 (01:07:13):
All right?

Speaker 6 (01:07:14):
Next up? You get to go? Next bar.

Speaker 4 (01:07:17):
They got TJ. Watt back man, and I just I
don't know how close he is to the end. I
just know that end ain't right now.

Speaker 7 (01:07:26):
Aaron Rodgers, this could be his final hurrah. You know
the Texans, their defenses is fire, but I just don't
trust CJ. Stroud in the offense for some strange reason.

Speaker 4 (01:07:40):
I think they can be had. And I'm going to
money line the Steelers on this one.

Speaker 1 (01:07:45):
Sticks picks, all right, Jonas, I was a skeptic of
the Steelers.

Speaker 6 (01:07:50):
I didn't buy into it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:52):
And then all of a sudden, the way that game
ended last week, the way the momentum has been building
there in Pittsburgh, it just feels like something spelled going
on so much though, that they're going to get their
asses fed to them on national television by the Houston Texans.
Give me the Texans minus.

Speaker 3 (01:08:08):

Speaker 3 (01:09:15):
Good thing, the guys are here to bring you in
case you missed.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
It, and for that we turn it over to our
executive producer, the one and only Patrick SWEEKA petty spree.

Speaker 2 (01:09:26):
Yo, what up?

Speaker 11 (01:09:27):
Guys?

Speaker 7 (01:09:28):
What up? Jonas Hivar Hi, Brony Cowboy, How.

Speaker 6 (01:09:34):
How did Patna? Well, you know what, Patna, It's time
to do.

Speaker 17 (01:09:37):
In case you missed it, and guys, oh boy, we
got a good one here. So Jimbo Fisher appeared on
the ACC Network earlier, predating the ole Miss Miami spot
right yesterday, he unloaded here on Lane Kiff and for
not letting more of the former ole Miss assistants help
the rebels, you know, try to finish the job.

Speaker 6 (01:09:57):
You actually, I have some sound to play. I give
a listen here. It's selfish, that's what it is. It's stupid.

Speaker 18 (01:10:02):
And because here's why I say that, he wanted a
coach and thought he didn't get his way. So everybody
get on the plane with me. You don't have a job,
all right, And he makes them all go. Then he
gets down there and takes a pr hit because it
looks bad that you really don't care about the kids.
Then he says, okay, you can go back. But here's
where he screwed up.

Speaker 2 (01:10:19):
He thought they were gonna lose it.

Speaker 18 (01:10:20):
He thought they were gonna lose a Georgia. And now
the portal thing was all over with, and it was
gonna be all over with.

Speaker 3 (01:10:24):
He said, oh, I'll look like a hero.

Speaker 18 (01:10:26):
Now he's got the egg on his face because the
real Lane came back out, you know, what I'm saying.
And if those guys were allowed to coach a first game,
they should be allowed to coach before because those guys
are doing, those kids are doing something that you get
one time in your life to ever do literally that
team and those guys one time. And as a coach, listen,
I know I've left a job.

Speaker 2 (01:10:43):
I'll get that.

Speaker 18 (01:10:43):
But if you took them on, took them all and
said they're never coming back, that's fine. You set the
rules of the game. You don't change the rules in
the middle of the game. And as a coach, it's
hurting the kids, and that pisses me off.

Speaker 7 (01:10:55):
Spicy sounds about right, though. I mean I don't know
the details of it all, but why were you not there?
You're there for the last game, but you're not there
for this one. I mean, sounds kind of right to me.

Speaker 6 (01:11:08):
I mean, you know, it's not like Jimbo Fisher is.

Speaker 1 (01:11:11):
You know, there's nothing in his hating well, nothing in
his past that you would look at and go maybe
not the maybe not the voice you want to hear
from this.

Speaker 4 (01:11:20):
Spot, you know, I mean, but I mean he's not
in that incorrect.

Speaker 6 (01:11:25):
No, he's not. No, he's not.

Speaker 7 (01:11:27):
I mean, you could be a hypocrite, but still you're
still I mean, that doesn't make what he said incorrect.

Speaker 10 (01:11:33):
No, it's just you know, you want to the messenger
is not a hypocrite, I get it.

Speaker 6 (01:11:40):
It's like it's like two used car salesmen insulting each other.

Speaker 7 (01:11:44):
Well, I mean, okay, better to do it if you
if you know what you're looking at, who better to
talk about it you don't.

Speaker 4 (01:11:52):
I'm just saying he wasn't wrong.

Speaker 6 (01:11:54):
Yeah he got paid though, he's good.

Speaker 4 (01:11:59):
I mean, yeah did Yeah, yes he did.

Speaker 6 (01:12:02):
Eighty million dollar check. Not bad.

Speaker 4 (01:12:04):
Still getting it
