We should get that blown up though. See if we

Are you going to be decked out in Penn steak
here tomorrow for the crowd?
Speaker 4 (01:47):
I break out the letterman jacket man from what I
he Hell? Yeah, let's see that bad boy on you.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I mean, why not? I assume yours is blue, right,
like a navy blue or like your color of blue arm.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
My arms are white. But my but like the chest
of its blue, my body is blue.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yes. Yeah, So here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Like when Leoner wore his last week, I was like
hold on a second. Your jacket's black, Like, that's not
a color for USC.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
I thought it was going to be.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Like cardinal, like the whole thing, and then like the
lettering would be in yellow or whatever they call that color.
But it was I was like, I don't know, man,
it's kind of it's looking kind of high school is
so you.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
And Matt Lionard set off the alarms at the Notre
Dame locker room.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
Okay, so oh, this is the backstory.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
We had gone to the field to film and literally
walk through on the field the two thousand and five
game in the last two series, like when we had
the football our drive down that field, which by the way,
one of the things that like no one ever talks
about if you ever go back and watch like the
our offense is final drive in the field, go look
(02:58):
at this.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
I had an I drive.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I try so the first play, I dropped back throw
a slant to Samarga. We gained ten or whatever ends
up fifteen whatever net being first down. We come back
when the same play, like we knew they had a
hard time. They played a lot of cover too. They
had hard time covering slants. Well, this time I dropped
back I think it was Keith River dropped underneath it,
and so the initial window wasn't there, so I just
(03:22):
took off running. I got absolutely demolished by someone like
was looking out of my ear hole. That's like I
got hit so hard by the helmet was turned sideways,
like flattened, and I but I dumped it off this
Jeff before that he catches it runs again from the
first down. I remember getting up and literally like grass
(03:42):
my face, like looking like trying to get my helmet adjusted,
probably saw some stars and just went on with the
drive and like, like to this day, I've never heard
anyone talk about it, but I just remember walking up
to it thinking I would. I think I was concussed
for like the last portion of that while. But we
walked through what happened that night, and then as we're
(04:05):
going up, Matt's like, hey, can I see the locker room?
I said, yeah, sure. I was like, what we're go
on inside? And the young woman who was with us,
she was like recently hired. She goes, well, I can
get a sin, but I don't know the alarm code.
I was like, alarm code, and I was like, there's
no alarm code. I was like, come on and mind you.
When I was there my first two years, like we
used the stadium as everything, so that was our locker
(04:27):
room for everything like practice, games, everything, and most places
then would build a separate facility to practice and work
out and all that, so you'd have two lockers, one
in the game, you know, one in the stadium for
games and one for practice.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
We didn't have that yet. So like when I was there,
I was like, yeah, there's no alarm in here.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
So sure enough, she unlocks it, we go inside, the
alarm goes off.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I'm like, oh crap, there is an alarm.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
So at that point, I'm like, well, we're pop coummitted,
like we'll just handle if the police or whatever show up.
When they show up, so I, you know, give Mat
a tour of everything. He's obviously covering stuff for his
social media content. And then as we walk out, as
I told him, I was like, I guarantee you there'll
be like two cop.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Cars that ended up showing up. And sure enough there's
like two.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Cop cars come flying up and I've got to explain
that these officers. Basically how I told this poor young
girl I was. I convinced her that there's not an alarm.
It's just something that they tell new employees. And clearly
I was wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
No problem, Brady, I mean all right, how quick was
the response from?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Very fast?
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah, very fast? Yeah, yeah, they know their priorities. Good right,
I mean sure.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Can you imagine the amount of value in that building?
You know? Oh yeah, yeah, you got Well. The funny
thing is, like, the funny thing is it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
I don't know why, but in my mind I was like, oh,
this is gonna be some complex alarm or something system.
But it was like the type of alarm like you'd have,
like a d T like in your house. It was
like the same sound, the same little.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Thing you'd press on the wall. I thought it was
gonna be a lot more complex than that. It was not.
It was just like a normal alarm that you'd have
in your.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Home, which kind of makes sense since it's, uh, you know,
the house of rocketing building.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
You know what would be interesting if you put an
equipment manager, a head coach, a few lettermen, a few
current players, a trainer, and the chef that works in
their building and tell them that the building is on
(06:36):
fire and you only have time to grab one to
two items. Where do you think people would run to
What do you think people would run to get if
they could only if they only had time to run
and grab two or three items out of out.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Of the building.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I mean is they don't keep They don't keep as
much in the stadium anymore as they used to. But
I could assure you one thing. They would go grab
the play like a Champion today sign.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Everyone that we're on the same page, So you're on
the right page like Jonas is. But but Jonas would
be running in a different direction. Yeah, funny, I think
people would scattered to different directions. I'm going for all American.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
Pictures, all that stuff in our practice facility now right
right is the now the play like a Champion sign?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Is that?
Speaker 7 (07:37):
Like?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
How is that hung up on the wall? Is that
glued there? Is that? Is that easy to get on?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
They just use elmers, Like it's really shocking all these
years it's last.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
I'm going to say maybe some vel grow or something
like that.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
I actually think they've got a glue stick, you know,
like the little glue stick used to use back in
the day.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
I mean, makes sense has worked for everything.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Growing up in school, I honestly thought it was painted
on the wall.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
You ate some of that, huh. I didn't know was.
Speaker 7 (08:10):
That was.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
That's a true story from me.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I thought it was painted on, like you guys go downstairs, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Thought it was painted on there. I didn't know it's
a legit sign. It's it's it's bolted on.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
It's been that way for a long time, especially as
hardest guys hit it. But it's pretty cool. I mean,
that was one area that I did not I did
not let Matt.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Come even close to. So good for you, good for you.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
Well, listen, we don't have anything like that. We did,
but it's gone now like we didn't. We don't have it.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
So no, there's that we are well yeah, man, Speaking
of USC, could be some changes in the USC now.
This was discussed yesterday with Dan Patrick. He had, you know,
read a report that was out from Scott Wolf, who
covers the USC Trojans for Inside You USC. And he's
(09:01):
not Scott Wolf's not a really well like guy locally
by a well because he calls out USC on their
bs all the time. And the only show that I
hear him on or have heard him on, he may
have been on some other ones, is on with Petros
and money on the blowtorch am five seventy LA Sports
because Petros Papadakis has a little bit of the same
(09:23):
reputation that he's not afraid to call out USC on
their bs And so Scott Wolfe had a report that
came out yesterday that said, in NFL coaching circles, the
talk is that Lincoln Riley is putting out feelers to
take a job in the NFL next season. This chatter
was going around even before USC's lost to Notre Dame,
and the word is Riley would be open to an
(09:45):
NFL job if he could follow Caleb Williams to the
same franchise. If the Chicago Bears had the number one pick,
it would probably be ideal for this theory. So that
is a report out from Scott wolf which it said
it sounds like, I don't know, I've heard that somewhere before,
like a few months back.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Yeah, wow, didn't I say this to you all a
few months back?
Speaker 1 (10:05):
And speculating all that, And I mean, I'll continue to
say it. I think Washington's the most interesting one. Now,
their record may not put them in a position to
take him.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Number one overall.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
If he indeed is still viewed as the number one
quarterback in this class. But you have new ownership, you
have a head coach who I think is is liked.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
As well liked in Ron Rivera.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
But if they don't get the results, I think people
can make the excuse, Hey, new ownership, we can move
on from this. And it makes sense. It's where Caleb
is from. You're trying to drum up interest in that franchise.
That would be one way.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Of doing it. That would be big.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
I'm really interested to see what happens with Washington the
rest of the season. They don't have that much committed
in Sam Howe. He's played well at times this year.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
But if you could get Caleb Williams, that changes a
lot of dynamics of things.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
So I said earlier and just applies moving forward.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
If you're Lincoln Riley, clearly those two have a strong relationship.
He got him to come to Oklahoma, he got him
to go to Southern cal That's right. You know they
would love to work together, and I think that would
be good for Caleb Williams early on is knowing that
system right away. I think you would see him trip
and he wouldn't have as big of a jump as
a lot of other quarterbacks who have to learn a
(11:23):
different system. The biggest question would be whether or not
Lincoln Riley as an offensive play caller, would be able
to have the impact that he's had in college at
the NFL level.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
And one of the other portions of this article from
Scott Wolf says that the other part of the theory
is that an NFL team would tell Riley who to
hire from a defensive standpoint on the defensive staff to
avoid some of the pratfalls that have happened in college
because the defense has.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
See to me, that kind of takes away from the
credibility of the article, Like.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Is that a shot?
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Are you taking a shot at how bad their defense
has been playing?
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Couple?
Speaker 4 (12:01):
You could have left that out. You didn't have to
put that in the in the article.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
But remember, like I threw this out to Petros a
couple of weeks ago and just said, hey, Petros, does
Lincoln Riley coach one single snap or one single game
in the Big Ten for USC? And he said, well, look,
I mean, you know, maybe he makes a jump or
something like that. But he said, and he pointed out
the defense, like their defense is a problem, and if
(12:25):
you're in.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
The trenches are a problem. I mean, let's be let's
be real for a second. They couldn't beat Utah last year,
They lost Nohe twice. They Flaminggan this year without Cam
Rising easier task for them, especially hosting him at home.
But if they can't make it past the Utah's, the
Oregans some of the other teams in the Pac twelve,
how are you going to stand up versus Ohio State
(12:47):
and Penn State and Michigan. And that's not to mention
teams like Wisconsin that you have a similar build to.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
What Utah is. Iowa or Iowa. Yeah, Iowa for that matter,
although I think we've seen.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Some Bowl games then next to Maryland, you know, it's
just I believe they will be competitive, but it's going
to be a different brand of football and it'll be
interesting to see who has.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
To adjust to who.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Like and if Lincoln Rally is still there. I think
it's more it's more running gun type of deal. Obviously
they've shown that it's not more about stopping guys and
playing more traditional type of football.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
It's it's it's just it's.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Driven by offense and by point production and sometimes it's
like that in the in the Big Ten. But you
have to be able to switch styles, you know, if
it doesn't, if it doesn't work out today that big
plays and explosive plays are are the thing that's working today.
(13:51):
You got to be able to be in in a brawl.
You got to be able to to take the punches.
You got to be able to dish the melt. That's
the Big Ten. That's classic Big Ten. You gotta deal
with the purdues you got. You can't really take a
week off. You can't be like, oh, yeah, this is
this team. Yeah we yeah, that's like I feel like
we should. We can, but as a fan, but you
(14:12):
just can't. You know, you go visit Purdue and and
and Purdue, you can lose.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
You know.
Speaker 4 (14:18):
You go visit Illinois and and and Champagne, you can lose.
And and to me, that's what I've always I've always
enjoyed that about the Big Ten is that you can
get depending on what style of football is being played,
and if you're considered to be a little bit more finesse.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
I won't say soft, but if you have a little
bit more finesse, say it.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
If you're soft, Yeah, it could it could come back
to haunt you. I mean, it hasn't too much for
the most finestful team in the ten, but it possibly could.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Do you guys think Lincoln Riley coaches at USC after
this year, because I don't.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
I do, I don't I do.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I think he does all this if you look at
what he's been able to do so far between last
year and this year. And by the way, it's weird, like, you,
WISC just lost for the first time this season, and
granted they got pounded, but it feels like they've lost
twice now. It's so odd how people are talking about
this team, like if we're being real as bad as
they look this past Saturday, it's one loss. Yeah, yeah,
(15:24):
well and look and we can always say what if
with the loves like it's their only loss and we're
acting like they've already lost twice they're out of it,
like they might as well move on to next year.
It's it's kind of bizarre. I mean, if Caleb Williams
plays better in any game, like, he's always going to
give them a chance. So look, I'll say this, the
(15:44):
biggest concern I have for Colorado or excuse me, jeez,
So for Southern Cal moving on in the future, is
what do what does this team look like if they
don't have the best player in college football because he
won a last year, he'll be up for the Heisman
this year. That's been holding this whole thing together. Petro
(16:04):
says it on Wednesdays. If they're a six to seven
win team, if Caleb Waives is in their quarterback, he
might not be too far off from that. And the
question becomes like, all right, let's say you're Lincoln Riley
and I've already heard rumors that, you know, maybe cam
Ward it's for there or whoever else that's a top quarterback, right,
I want to transfer there if they have eligibility. Okay,
(16:26):
but they're not gonna be Kitleb Williams. As good as
they might be, they're not gonna be Kayleb Williams. And
is that gonna be enough to allow to be competitive?
Like I think now more than ever because the narrative
with Lincoln Riley and great offenses, Heisman Trophy winning quarterbacks.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Couldn't really get the defense to come along.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
You know, now he's at USC two years now, we've
kind of said the same thing that went to the
portal hit it hard both years.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Yeah, kind of still seeing the same thing.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I wonder if he doesn't mind trying to go now
and this is the right time up to the NFL
level where the talent's more equated and he can try
the exercise his axs and o's versus the best in
the NFL.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
With Caleb wlas as a quarterback as a package deal.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
We kind of saw in Arizona, didn't It looked like
it was working out early than it didn't.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
But maybe this would be different.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
I do wonder how the impact of other college coaches
maybe not working out. We'll play a role in the
thought process behind Lincoln Roley being a head coach.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
In the NFL.
Speaker 2 (17:22):

we welcome in the pride of Ohio State Albert Breer,
(18:18):
senior NFL reporter at the MMQB and you can get
them on Twitter or x or whatever they're calling it
at Albert Breer Albert Big Week four and a half
point favorites. As you get ready for Saturday's Top seven
matchup against Levar's Penn State, Nitney lyons, how are you doing, LeVar?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Good morning? So you gonna address me first? Wow? Only
time addressing me right out the gate? All business. Yeah,
that's that's interesting. I'm good, Albert. How are you doing.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
I'm good, guys, I'm good. What's up?
Speaker 2 (18:55):
Just how you feeling? Maybe how we look in at
the game? You feel confident?
Speaker 9 (18:58):
I would say, sim a little uncertain, although Brady's team
made me feel a lot better about our win a
month ago because that Notre Dame defense looks filthy, and
so it made me feel a little bit better about
you know, our quarterback and we're a quarterback. He is
going into this game and a pressure situation.
Speaker 10 (19:18):
And uh and I think I think our defense is
pretty good, and so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
You know.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I want to further on this discussion, though, if let's
just play this out, Okay, if Ohio State does lose
de Penn State as an alum, how hot is the
seed in your mind for Ryan Day?
Speaker 9 (19:40):
I would get back to many five weeks after that.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Okay, So, so this name doesn't matter as much. It's
really about Michigan.
Speaker 7 (19:46):
No, no, no, no, it does matter. It does matter.
Speaker 9 (19:48):
You know why it matters, Brady because I think you can't.
It is about Michigan, but you can't fall the third
in the division. I think that that's sort of the
underlying thing is, you know, I think it is about.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Michigan, and I think.
Speaker 9 (20:03):
It will be about Michigan and it will continue to
be about Michigan because I mean, you grew up there,
you know, you know, like that's just what it is.
But I think the heat gets turned up even more
so and there's even more pressure on them to win
in an arbor. Not that there already isn't a lot,
but there's even more pressure to win it in arbor
(20:23):
if they don't beat Penn State. Because I mean, I
might be mistaken here, LeVar, but I think Penn States
are relatively young too, Like they're good, but they're also young, right, Like,
so you know, now you're looking at you know, Drew
Aller coming.
Speaker 7 (20:35):
Back next year.
Speaker 9 (20:36):
They're backs going back next year. I feel Carter, it's
coming back next year.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
Like, so you know, I think that.
Speaker 9 (20:44):
What I know about people in Columbus and everything else,
I think losing the Penn State would go beyond it
being a Michigan pro problem. Now you'd be talking about
the trajectory of the program. So I think it's a
big one, and you know, it's you know, for a
lot of different reasons for this, this year's team, but
also for where the program at is right right now,
(21:04):
and Ryan Davis sits there in charge.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Albert, we got to keep it in the state of
Ohio because you know, we're trying to figure out the
hell's going on with Deshaun Watson, all right, Like his
coach comes out and says he's medically cleared to play.
A couple of weeks ago, he doesn't play, there's a
bye week, doesn't play last week. Now there's no timetable
on the return with this rotator cuff issue. Like what
are you hearing from people you've talked to? Yeah?
Speaker 9 (21:31):
I mean so first I would start with but you know,
the coaches and his team major and they say his
attu has been good, you know I I that was
my first thing when I when when you look at
something like this, it's like, okay, like is is is
the player in question in some way gone the other way?
Speaker 7 (21:50):
And he is?
Speaker 9 (21:52):
Is he turning into an independent contractor? And I don't
get that sense much talking to his coaches. His coaches
says attitudes and there. I talked to TJ.
Speaker 10 (22:00):
Loker after the game on Sunday, and you know, PJ said,
j Shaun was super helpful with him and getting him
ready to go, and so I think he's still in
a good spot with the organization.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
As for like the injury itself, you know, I know.
Speaker 10 (22:13):
It's a frustrating thing, you know, for people to follow
because it's like, Okay, so it's gonna if it's not
this week, then it's going to be next week, and
then he gets next week and he's not out there
in the practice field.
Speaker 9 (22:23):
The feel I've got this, this is truly a week
to week thing, and because of this throwing shoulder, they
want to be careful with it, you know, for some
of the same reasons why the Colts decided to shut
Anthony Richardson down, you know, and and so like there's
a pain tolerance, uh components to this, there's a functionality
component to this, you know, And I I wish I.
Speaker 10 (22:46):
Had a better answer for you, but you know, and
I know it's frustrating for people, especially you know in
northeast Wi Hire.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
To hear this.
Speaker 10 (22:52):
But it's like from everything I can gather, it's truly
a week to week thing. And you know, it can.
Speaker 9 (22:58):
Be how Deshaun fields when he wakes up in the morning,
which you know makes it difficult for the team to
play going forward to anything else. But I know, like
the hope going into this week was that he would
play on Sunday.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
We'll see where it goes.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
Abe, Well, how you feel about the game tonight? What
are you looking for? I mean, you got a five
hundred team, you got a team that is mentioned earlier
about you.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
They're trending up. I still have questions.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
And you know in my mind about Jacksonville, But what
what are you looking for out at Jacksonville, New Orleans tonight?
Speaker 9 (23:31):
I love where the Jaguars are LeVar like I you know,
like if you look at the stretch that they're that
they're in the middle.
Speaker 7 (23:37):
Of right now, it's pretty brutal. You know.
Speaker 9 (23:40):
From a travel perspective, they played back to back games
in London. They were over there for eleven days.
Speaker 10 (23:46):
They come back, they play a home game, and now
they're playing a road game on a Thursday night. You know,
so within what is it, like less than twenty one days,
they're going to have played four games, travel to and
from the UK and then you know, playing a road
game on a on a very short week, you know,
And I know, like you know, internally like they feel
(24:08):
like the way the team has kind of taken this
on has been sort of a flashpoint for the group
in the building that like they really feel like the
way they've kind of come together and you know, been
able to put together three wins in a row and
now come into this game against New Orleans with a
chance to go into to their mini buy so to speak.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
At five and two.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
Really could be a launching point for the rest of
their season. And I think, you know, a couple of
young players coming around, obviously Trevor.
Speaker 9 (24:35):
You know Trevor. I you know that big throw he
made against Buffalo down the sideline to Calvin Ridley to
close the Bills out, Like he checked to that throw,
like that was supposed to be, you know, a safe
underneath play. I think it was on a third four,
and you know, he sort of showed the competitor in
him and taking the shot, checking to the shot in
that play and then making the throw he did. So
(24:56):
we're seeing those like, all right, Trevor's taking the next
step types of things. And then Travis atim has become
a real factor for them the last few weeks, you know,
and so you know, I think you combine like the
wherewith all of the team to come through this stretch
and potentially with four straight wins, which they can cap tonight,
you know, and then the development of the young players
(25:17):
and the Jaguars are a really good spot, you know.
The Saints of course, coming off that loss to Houston,
planning to prove too.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Albert.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I want to ask you about the New England Patriots.
They're hosting the Bills as an eight and a half
point underdog at home, which it's the largest I guess
spread for the Patriots being a home underdog in a
long time.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Mac Jones still the starter.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
They are bringing up Malie Cunningham is maybe a thought,
Maybe he's like a change up or something may happen there. Yeah,
they're one in five now, Like, where do you see
this thing going the rest of the season for Bill Belichick?
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Mac Jones the Patriots.
Speaker 7 (25:53):
He just doesn't.
Speaker 9 (25:54):
I mean, they just don't have good enough players, Brady.
I mean it's pretty it's pretty simple as I see it,
Like they haven't drafted it well, they've missed on free
agents like they I don't think you can get a.
Speaker 10 (26:05):
Clean read on Matt Jones right now. And yeah, he doesn't.
Speaker 9 (26:08):
Look like he's good enough. But I mean, I think
it's really hard. I think there are very few young
quarterbacks like under these circumstances that would have made it,
you know. And so you know, I think you know
where they are right now. They played Buffalo this week,
they played Miami next week. That means they're one in five,
staring down the barrel of one and seven. And you know,
(26:31):
I think the really hard thing about the spot that
they're in is if you look at their roster, you know,
find me a player or two on that roster that
you think's going to be there in twenty twenty five
or twenty twenty six. I mean, it might be Christian
Gonzalez and that's it. And Christian Gonzales and I are
right now, and he's only been there for ten minutes,
you know. So I you know, there are a lot
(26:51):
of i'd say, big picture questions being asked by an
ownership down there. And I would have told you like
two weeks ago, like I didn't think the roster was
going to wait good good enough at.
Speaker 7 (27:00):
The beginning of the year, So I would have told you,
like two weeks ago.
Speaker 9 (27:03):
I think there's a likelihood that maybe Kraft tries to
bring in a general manager, and then it's going to
be up to build whether or not he wants to
work with that general manager because.
Speaker 10 (27:11):
The roster management, the roster development just hasn't been good
enough now, I mean, as bad as this has gotten,
I'm wondering if you know, Craft just out right, you know,
says like we want to you know, like we just
can't go forward with this at all, and then figures
out whether or not it's going to be couched.
Speaker 9 (27:29):
As a firing or a resignation or a retirement or whatever.
But it's definitely an awkward spot for everybody to be
in and I don't see any light at the end
of the tunnel right now.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Albert, how last one for me? How surprised were you
that the Colts did shut down Anthony Richardson? I mean,
is this something that he could have come back from
this season and they just wanted to get ahead of
it early? But what are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 10 (27:54):
Yeah, I'm not shocked.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
I mean, I mean one thing, like, and I think
I've said this to you guys a few times, Like
I just I think you don't screw with the quarterbacks
throwing shoulder like I've seen too many times when like
you hear a team say, well, you know, like we
can manage it, we can get through it, and then
it gets worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 7 (28:12):
Like the idea of a.
Speaker 9 (28:14):
Quarterback playing for these things, I feel like, you know,
just my anecdotal history covering the league, like, I feel
like those never turn out well, you know, And so
I think it's I think it's smart. I also think,
like you know, you have to ask a lot of
questions now with Anthony Richardson, which this is a guy
who has hurt a lot in college too, It cost
him time in college. And look, just because he's built
(28:38):
like a tank doesn't mean he's going to hold up
to playing the way that they were playing him, you know.
And so I think the bigger question with Anthony Richardson, Look,
because I think he showed real star potential when he
was out there. I think the bigger question with Anthony
Richardson is all right, can you play him that way
consistently and be confident that he's going to be to
(29:00):
stay on the field for seventeen games a year? And
if you can't, then what are you left with? You know,
Like does he need that part of his game to
be effective, you know, and how do you strike the
balance where you're protecting him but you're also weaponizing that.
Speaker 7 (29:14):
It's just I think that those are the biggest questions
coming out of this.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
But I would always you know, i'd always applaud a team,
you know, that's attacking with some caution and a quarterback
dealing with a throwing shoulder jury. So I don't think
they made the wrong wrong call here. I just think
that there are bigger questions that come out of this.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
He's an Ohio State buck guy, he's a senior NFL right,
going to the MQB. Yeah, you're gonna be that?
Speaker 7 (29:38):
What are you going to be there?
Speaker 3 (29:40):
I will be there?
Speaker 7 (29:41):
Awesome.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
We get a prediction. I'm gonna be on the sideline.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
I will.
Speaker 9 (29:47):
I kind of like want to refrain, Well, Brady, you
can't make a prediction, right because you got to say
that for the for the pregame show.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
Yeah, I gotta, I gotta tease it. I got to
tease it for the show. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (29:57):
Okay, Okay, So I wou say, let's go.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Be Bio State, be honest with yourself though.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
I am being honest.
Speaker 9 (30:06):
Okay, let's say let's say, let's say Ohio State twenty six,
Penn State twenty.
Speaker 11 (30:15):
Wow, winning a cover wow, win and a cover wow.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
Guys.
Speaker 9 (30:20):
You know the pause there was was me trying to
remember what.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
It's a good move. Yeah, that's a good move, all
right to twenty six twenty that's the prediction from from
Albert Brear And hey, wouldn't you know it? The point
total on DraftKings is forty five and a half. God, wait,
wouldn't you wouldn't you know of all the numbers, you
gotta come up with a B? All right, well it
will be a fine yea.
Speaker 9 (30:42):
I wish I could take credit for knowing the number two,
but I didn't.
Speaker 7 (30:45):
I did not know the number. I was just trying
to get the line.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Right there it is.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
