always doing good. Baby. May there sky the palm trees today. Hey,
my man, come in. He Ready? Hey, and I just
had to remind you all, because you know they've been
playing good football. You'll remember that bad we made with
them Detroit lions. Right, Y'all, remember that? Right. Who was they? Hey, Ryan,
pulled that out for your boydads and put for your
(03:16):
boy that run. Do we really have the sound of this?
was there? was there really some sound of TJ saying
something about the Detroit Lions? So, so so, TJ, are
you insinuating that Dan Campbell is taking on the attitude
of the city? They're biting off knee, keptain getting knocked
(03:37):
the hell out, but get was the Detroit lions will
not finished last in that division, and Y'all beg to differ. Yeah,
and it's early in the season. I just want to
remind it's only week two. We get to it. It's
early in the season, but I like what I'm seeing.
I wouldn't brag about that right now, but you know,
it's it's good to be bold in the moments of
(03:58):
time where the being bold can be and the dolphins
was gonna make it happy. Come on, it's early in
the season. It's wots and a half. I mean that's
pretty good, but uh uh lava is still the same
guy that said the Green Bay packers would win the
Super Bolts. I did, and it's still early in the season.
Hey listen. So speaking to that, we'll we'll get to
(04:19):
some other things. Obviously, Uh James Jackson on on your
head will be next and and we'll preview. We'll talk
about that browns and steelers game. Can't wait to hear
uh plexus take on on the steelers. Yeah, be interesting.
And Jerry Jones, you know some controversy there uh could
be brewing in Dallas. But you you made mention of
(04:41):
the you know of the Miami Dolphins, T J, and
you know they have a big game this week. In fact,
that's the A F C matchup of the week, the
bills and the dolphins, and the bills are going to
Um to Miami to play them. I'm I'm interested to
(05:01):
hair your guys his thoughts on this game, because the
bills are seemingly as good as advertised. I mean, like
we said, it is early in the season. So just
like you can talk about a team that well, seemingly
was a bad team that looks pretty good right now,
could possibly not be good later on, I mean this
(05:22):
bill's team. It's early, but they look the part that
they they seemingly are way better, whatever the von Miller
effect is on on teams. That this defense is much better,
much improved from being a good defense um the last
few years. And the offense, it just seems like Josh
(05:44):
Allen has improved leaps and bounds as a quarterback every
single year he's been in the league. Uh Man Digs
is playing some great football. That they seem balanced. Is this?
Is this the team to beat? And and what type
of what type of implications are they're connected to this
Miami game, because while we will look at Miami and
(06:06):
say this is a talented group, finally, too, it getst going.
They were down like they were down. Baltimore had the
game and I don't know if this was more about
Baltimore losing the game versus it was Um this this
Miami Dolphins team winning the game. We'll go ahead, go
(06:26):
you guys, gotta go ahead take it. Oh, it has
everything to do with Baltimore losing this football game. And listen,
if you're going to halftime, you're twenty seven and you're
playing in Baltimore. I mean we've always said that the
ANFC north is is probably one of the toughest divisional
conferences in football. And for listen, I don't care who
(06:47):
too has. We know that he has all the speed
in the world at the wide recely position, Water Cheetah
in the in the and the other young man. But
for them, with school, thirty or five points in the
second half down in Baltimore, to win that football game.
I mean, trust me, nobody saw that coming. When when
the school I thought the football game was over with,
(07:08):
to be honest with you, because I'm just thinking that.
You know, look, two is gonna be tour it's gonna
take the Miami Dolphins or a little bit more time
going into the season to to gather rapport and to
be able to go up and, you know, put those
kind of points up that we saw the other day,
but not in week two. I was surprised the way
that they came out of performed offensively, especially against a
(07:31):
defensive football team, and for them to score that many
points in the second half. So listen. I may have
uh spoken some words about two of not being as
good as I thought he was, but man, listen, he
was delivering that football man, he was accurate and and
of course, man that tyree hill man. He just changes
(07:51):
the whole you know, complexity of your offense, just being
able to run through his own getting guys open. And
you know, listen, that the Miami Dolphins are streamly explosive.
This is the thing the bills. They're the number one
defense in football. Last year, number one defense in national
football league. Last year the bills looked apart. They played
(08:12):
the part. They are the part. That's just what they are.
The bills have a really good team. But when, when
I look at each team of all, when you tour,
tour was really good in college, really good in college
with quite possibly in the first pick, he doesn't get hurt,
or if Joe just doesn't play out of his world,
still drafted top five. He had extremely talented weapons at Alabama.
(08:38):
He comes into the League, he doesn't have the players
around him in the League that he had in college,
so he doesn't play well. It doesn't help that Brian Flores,
he has three offensive coordinators in two years. People forget that.
Brian Flores, I don't know if he supported to the
way he needed to be supported. He gets a new
(08:59):
head coach, he gets a risk either that can just
slide out play now to looks like, Oh my God,
he's a guy, he was at Alabama. It's early in
the season, it's only two games, so there's so much
more to show. He's gonna continue to show that because
he has receivers now that he had similarly in college.
They can run, they're quick, they're gonna run routes, they're
(09:20):
gonna threaten defenses. Tour looks the part. What I don't
like is, Oh, too people's tour can't play two. Is
this two? Is that tour starts playing well? Well, you
know he does have Jalen Watt on tyreek hill, so
he should play well. And you know you can't. You can't.
To me, this goes hand in hand because there's certain
(09:41):
quarterbacks that how many quarterbacks? It doesn't matter who they
playing with, they're gonna make it happen. How many? Maybe
one or two? Maybe one or two's exactly. So every
quarterback you gotta have these receivers on the outside and
tight ends and you it's a complementary game. It's eleven
guys and so I believe this matchup is gonna be
(10:02):
a good matchup. The bills are a better complete team,
but they have some key players missing. It's not like
they're gonna be going out. I'm in full strength. I'm
looking forward to it. Um, it should be very interesting
because tyreek kill is one guy at the bills they
seem to change up how they play when he's on
the field, so that will be interesting. And defensively for
(10:23):
the for the bills. Man, losing mica high for the season, man,
that's uh, that's a that's a big blow and some
shoes they're gonna have to feel and I don't think
they're gonna be able to do it right away. Yeah,
his athleticism, his ability to read the quarterback and keep
guys on the same page like back into that defense.
A lot of times guys like him, you really don't
(10:43):
appreciate him and then when they're not on the field
you're like Oh man, especially to other guys on the team,
other guys on that defense, when you're a good communicator,
they're gonna miss that. Yeah, man, I listen. I think
this is a tremendous moment, more for the dolphins than
for the bills. Right I think this is the bills
(11:06):
can continue to show their dominance, but if they were
to lose this game, I think it would be more
about praising Uh to uh depending on his performance, which
I think he's gonna have to have a tremendous performance
for them to win this game. So I think this
is just more about more of the Miami Dolphins versus
(11:28):
versus of being the bills. If the bills let this
get away, I think it does raise questions, but not
enough questions to say this still isn't probably the team
to beat in the National Football League. Depending on the
way they they would lose the game. But for the dolphins,
this could be a defining moment for them. Uh, the
(11:50):
coach's young career, Daniel his his young career Um in
in Miami. This this could go a long way for
job security for for the head coach, this could go
a long way for for you know, two of being
the catalyst of of this team and what that means
moving forward after such a turbulent and scrutinized start to
(12:12):
his his career. I'm I'm really excited to see how
this plays out, because it's an early it's an early
season matchup, but yet it just seems to be a
lot writing on it. As it applies to is this
is this Miami Dolphins team. Can we take them seriously?
Or was that, you know, kind of and Aberition of
(12:34):
sorts for for them against against the Ravens and being
able to come back the way that they did? I
mean sometimes you could take your foot off the pedal
and and take that you know, not had that gas
down and then the team can, you know, catch up
to you and you just don't have the ability to
be able to to change the tide and it's you know,
I'm not sure if that was the case, but it
(12:56):
could have been. So I'm I'm interested to see how
that is. Don't think even if the Miami Dolphins do
win this football game, and if they win it convincingly,
I don't think everybody's gonna jump out of the window
and say that do your Miami Dolphins or a team
to beat in this division. No, but you're gonna start, Hey, hey,
but you're gonna start adding them to the conversation. I'll
(13:19):
tell you that. You'RE gonna start. If they if they
have a convincing went. Hell, I don't care if it's
convincing or not. If they beat the bills, you're gonna
start having a conversation about the Miami Dolphins being a
legitimate contender for the A F C south and and
who knows, like it's sets the stage. Excuse me, actually,
(13:40):
it sets it sets the IT sets the conversation up
for Um. What do you you know, how do you
look at this, this team moving forward? Right? I mean
it drastically changes the narrative if they beat the bills,
right or wrong? Yeah, because nobody thought or would think
that the Miami Dolphins will be competitive and off, you know,
(14:01):
this year to be able to beat the bills. I
mean that that was a full going conclusion that they could, uh,
you know, go to buffalo or or buffalo go to
Miami and and and and then for to win this
football game. So, I mean, listen, everything is gonna Weil
for them, but if they do go out and get
a win, you know what, maybe the Miami Dolphins are
(14:24):
turned in the corner. I could think it. I still
believe the bills are gonna win the Super Bowl, but when,
when loser draw that, this means more for Miami that
that win last week was an eye opener. This will
show like they for real, the Miami Dolphins, that they're
gonna be a team to be reckoned with now till
the end of the season. All right. Well, we'll see
(14:46):
how that that plays out and will definitely be around
to talk about it and discuss it. Jerry Jones, he's
hoping for a quarterback controversy. Really that should be interesting.
We got the sound on that. We'll get to that later,
but next it's gonna be our Guy James Jackson of
the on your head podcast. He's getting on somebody's head
and we'll discuss that, uh in moments. All right. So
(15:08):
you're listening to up on games, T J Hushman's eyes,
Plexico birth. I'm Lavar ARRINGTON. Will take quick break. We'll
be right back. All right, welcome back into the show.
You're listening to up on game. We'll get to Jerry
Jones in a matter of moments. We'll get to the
legendary man himself, Isaac Lowen Cron for trending, but first,
(15:31):
right now, we gotta get to our Guy James Jackson.
You know, he gets on people's head from the straight
facts podcast on up on game presents network. I wonder
whose head he's gonna get on this week. Well, without
further ado, let's find out. It's I'm on your head
(15:54):
with James Jackson. Now we know that there are a
lot of teams who didn't end season last year the
way that they wanted to, some teams so much so
that they got rid of their quarterback and brought in
a new one who's about a decade older, thinking that
that was going to be the answer to their problems.
But it's not. The Indian APP was colts I'm on
(16:14):
your head. See, this is a team coming into the
season this year, had aspirations of winning the A F
C south, but right now it's their season that's going
down south, because starting off the season by first tying
the Texans and then getting goose Egged blanked by the
Jacksonville Jaguars. I mean that's not even shaky, man. That's
(16:35):
so straight up disappointing. And Bad quarterback play continues to
haunt this team. So, through two games, let's take a
look at Qb Matt Ryan stats this season so far.
Only five seven yards, one touchdown, four picks. On a
quarterback rating. Yeah, I'd say Maddie ice is starting to
freeze up just a little bit, and that's really tough
(16:57):
that this is the one position that they can't get good,
consistent play out of. It's ironic that ever since Andrew
left they haven't had any luck at quarterback, isn't it?
But I don't feel bad for India at all. They
really could have decided to just run this back with Carson,
fix a few things here and there and hopefully it
will be better. But instead you run him out of
town and now you're stuck with Matt Ryan for the
(17:18):
rest of this season at least. So figure it out.
But it's really not all his fault. This colts team
just doesn't seem to have the same Guinea up as
they did last season. So they better think they're lucky
horseshoes that they play in the ANFC sound because even
with an old one in one start, there's still time
to dust themselves off and get back on the Horse,
the Colt to be specific. I'm on your head. Uh,
(17:45):
let me ask you a question. When this trade happened
between Atlanta Falcons and Carson wins, I remember me and
you having this conversation and I specifically ask you this question.
I said, do you think so? Are you telling me
that Matt Ruyn is a tremendous upgrade from Carson Wentz?
(18:09):
I don't think. I don't think you used yes. No, no,
no, no no, I don't think you didn't use the word tremendous,
but give or take a few words that you just expressed,
you are correct, Plexico, you are. I I believe he
was more consistent than Carson Wentz. The coach just starting
(18:30):
a good football team right now. Shakier Leonard, who was
previously Darius Leonard, isn't healthy. He isn't playing. UH, their
best receiver, Michael Pittman, did not play last week. They
have a hard time against Jacksonville regardless. All I'm saying
is you are and you have Jonathan Taylor at running
(18:52):
back and you can't find a way to put on
the board. Let me ask you this, plex Michael Pittman
isn't playing. Can you name another receiver on that team? Problem?
T Y Hillon, ain't even in the league. Lavar go so? No,
and that's my point, and it's not to disparage any
of them, it's Michael Pittman isn't playing. I didn't say
(19:16):
name a starter, I said name another receiver on that team.
Nobody knows Desmond Patton, nobody knows Alex Pierce. They don't
know these dudes and just because you don't know who
they are, they still got to go out of perform.
If Jonathan Taylor can't be effective, that means the opposing
(19:38):
team's defensive coordinator doesn't respect what you have on the outside.
WE'RE gonna load up on a run and force you
to beat us. I do believe Matt Ryan played a
more consistent brand of foot by the quarterback position than
Carson wins. He's not gonna turn the ball over, he's
not gonna fold, but they don't have the weapons. They're struggling.
(19:58):
And then I need the check on my boy darn
Darrol Smith. He was doing all my coats going to
the Super Bowl. They're fighting just to win the division,
and so they they they are in a rough spot,
but these quarterbacks need weapons. You gotta understand man. Look
at Matt Ryan's career and who he's played with at
the scale position. Just Look Roddy White, Julio Jones, Tony Gonzalez,
(20:23):
Calvin Ridley, Kyle Pitts. I mean what? This is his career,
not a season or his career. He's had those guys.
That's true. That is true. Plex I don't I think
it's a great scenario that plays out for the coats. And,
be honest with you, this was a team that looked
like roster wise, they were ready to go, you know,
(20:45):
make a run for that Super Bowl Um, but they
just they look like they are regressing, like seriously, like
I don't, I don't know that this is uh Oh,
it's an early season deal and they'll get it together
and the play. I was a skeptic of Matt Ryan
just because of his age. I mean, I would just
be honest. It just seemed like he got the hell
(21:07):
beat out of him and and just wasn't the same
Guy Um in in Atlanta, and that's why they were
okay with letting him go. Sometimes another person's trash become
somebody else's treasure. We've seen that happen before. But sometimes
somebody's trash and somebody else's trash, you know, and he's
gotta address it and be like, listen to all those
(21:28):
players that you just named, Kyle Pitts, Tony goes all white,
by the way. All those players that he played with.
You exactly right, but if you can't get it done
with those group of guys, then then what the hell
are you gonna do when you don't have a a
pittman or you don't have any wire was? I mean,
how do you how do you expect for this young
(21:50):
man to perform? It's gonna be tough. That's why James
was on their head. Na, guess that's why I had
to get on their head. But you know who's gonna
get on this updating and this trending? You know who
gets on that? You know who crushes it like no
one else does. You know who knocks him down like
(22:10):
well did? Yeah, you know, it's our guy, not just
how Mike Tyson would typically knock people out. I'm talking
about Mike Tyson against Michael spink's if you will. You
know what, guys, the reason why we got a ton
(22:30):
of fresh NFL news for you, starting with this. The
buffalo bills. Their safety, Micah Hyde, gonna be placed on
season ending injured reserve today because of his recent neck injury,
according to his agent. The Baltimore Ravens have downgraded left
tackle Ronnie Stanley to out for tomorrow's game at New
England because of an ankle injury. The Tampa Bay buccaneers
(22:52):
announced moments ago that they have elevated recently signed receiver
cold Beasley to their active roster for tomorrow's game against
the EN bay packers. Multiple NFL owners have told The
Washington Post in recent days that they believe serious consideration
may be given to attempting to oust Washington Commander's owner
(23:12):
Daniel Snyder from the league's ownership ranks, either by convincing
him to sell his franchise or by voting to remove him.
Snyder is facing a congressional investigation and a separate league
commissioned investigation into allegations of misconduct. Other than that, everything's
fine anyway. On the college football scoreboard right now, Georgia,
(23:35):
on a seventy five yard touchdown run by Brock bowers
and a safety, has a nine three lead over Kent
State ten minutes into the game. Fourth ranked Michigan up
seven three over Maryland. Four and half minutes in. Fifth
ranked Clemson has just taken a fourteen to nothing lead
at wake forest with five Oh nine left to play
in the first quarter. Seventeen thranked Baylor and Iowa state
(23:59):
tied at set with two fifty five left to play
in the first quarter, and number twenty four Pittsburgh as
a fourteen to six lead as we speak over Rhode Island,
and they have five minutes and nine seconds left to
play in the first quarter there. Um, let me see.
Is there any underscore to Michigan state or any state?
(24:20):
I'm only doing top twenty five scores right now. There's
any other top you know there is. There is one
top twenty five score I missed, no interest to anybody here.
Fourteen rank Penn state of fourteen to nothing lead over
Central Michigan with four twenty two left to play in
(24:42):
the first quarter. Back to you, Michigan. What? What? What
we're talking about? Michigan State? Last week anyway, let's let's
for anybody to play it. Well, I'll tell you what.
If you thought it was a tough venue or not,

the Browns uh beat the steelers. The steelers seemingly had
(25:24):
pulled things together. They get out of out of a
game with Cincinnati, TJ's team, and you know what, it
wasn't pretty, but you had the feeling that this team
could be that scrappy Pittsburgh team that plays defense, finds
a way to move the ball on the ground and
(25:44):
and and gets the ball to receivers seemingly every single year.
It doesn't look like it's playing out that way right
now and I it just you know, we heard at
moments in time where, you know, the fans, we're chanting
for picket. Now do you have this sound, uh Sam
(26:08):
and burst of of Um Ben Roethlisberger. Maybe it wasn't sound,
maybe it was just a quote, but I thought it
was interesting. Ben Roethlisberger comes out and basically it is
chastising people for not, uh, for looking at Mitch Robinski
as being the issue, saying that this guy is basically
(26:31):
a product of of the system, of the scheme. And
My Canada has now found himself in the crosshairs of
of a focal point of an inept offense that can't
seemingly be able to score, but at the same time,
this defense isn't a dominant defense either. Cleveland was able
(26:55):
to to really do what they needed to do, running
the ball, um moving the ball to to get touchdowns
to win this game. What what is the prognosis? Um,
I'll start with you on this one, plex, because this
is you know, this is your team. Can Mike Tomlin,
as great a coach as he has been, as as
as record setting, legendary as he's created accolades of never losing,
(27:20):
having a losing season? It looks like he's in danger
of losing that standing this season. You know, he hasn't
had a losing season since he's been to you know,
the tenure head coach for the for the Pittsburgh steell lose.
But uh, it may be going the other way. And
can we just address the elephant in the room please.
(27:41):
Let's do it. Let's do it. A few weeks ago,
like I said, it's tough for me to believe that
the best option at quarterback for the stealer is Mitchell rubisky. Listen,
he may be a hell of a guy. I've never
met the young man. He may be a great person,
but you know what, he just play quarterback, and that's
(28:02):
just playing and simple. We know who mate trubisky is.
He's been up. He was a backup that Josh Allen
for two years. So what makes us think that he's
gonna come off the sideline and Change his stripes? We
know who he is as a quarterback. He's not an
elite quarterback, the average at most. And guess what I said?
I said Mitchell trubisky and Marcus Mariota are thirty one
(28:26):
and thirty second best quarterbacks in this league, and right
now Mitchell trubisky is ranking thirty second at quarterback with
yards per pass. We know who he is. He's not
gonna come in and give you any kind of performance
as far as throwing the football where teams are going
to respect him. They're not gonna do it because he
(28:49):
hasn't shown US anything to make us think that he's
any different of a player. When he was in Chicago,
and I keep saying that he when he was brought in,
I thought that the Pittsburg still has brought him into
be an insurance policy and they were going to start
Kenney Pickett. Right now you're looking at the situation where,
you know what, we might as well just put the
(29:09):
young fell in see where we can get out of him,
because the guy that's under sending number ten, he's not
giving us the best option to win football games. And
it happened to us back and Oh fourth we wanted
we we won week one against the Cleveland browns. Unfortunately
for Tommy Maddocks, he went down in Baltore, in Baltimore
(29:30):
in certain number seven Ben Roethlisberg, and there and there
goes history. This young man in the football game right now,
because you have nothing else to lose, you expect every
be as good as bad. But he's gonna be as
good as been. But this pittsbrook still a team is
out of T J wats out for the season with
(29:51):
a torm peck and I've never seen the Cleveland browns
run the football on the Pittsburg steals like like Nick Chubb,
a hundred seventy one yards. This the model in Pittsburgh is.
You know what the standard is? The Standard, and giving
up a hundred and seventy one yards the Nick Chub football,
that is not the standard. That will not be tolerated
(30:14):
in Pittsburgh under any assumption. You can't stop the football,
you can't stop the ruin movement. Running the football and
moving the chains and keeping the clock running is a
recipe for winning football and the rule of thumb in
in in this profession. If you cannot stop the run,
(30:35):
you can't play defense and and and that's why, when
you bring up Ben Roethlisberger, it's not gonna happen. Ben
Roethlisberger was carried by that defense. That defense now is
not gonna Carry Kenny Pickett. I felt like Metro Trobinsky
was the best option because they know they need somebody
to have some type of experience Kenny Pickett. They wanted
(30:57):
him to stay on the side. Kenny pick is gonna
be the starting Quarterba by week seven at the latest
he'll be the starting quarterback. They just hope that Trabinsky
can get him some wins keep them competitive, which he's done.
He's shown who he is. But there's a reason this
quarterback class this season, the ricky class, wasn't highly thought of.
(31:20):
There was really who's the first round? I don't know.
Kenny Pickett slides into the first round. Kenny pickt what,
what are you gonna do better than M trobisky doing?
Run around well, and so they're trying to get him settled,
get him more experienced, just from watching learning. By mid season,
the same way they did with Big Ben, he's going
(31:42):
to be inserted as a starter. The biggest difference is
that defense isn't gonna be able to carry him like
they did with Big Ben, and so he'll have some
growing pains and this will probably. This ain't probably. This
will be Mike Thomas first losing season. It happens. Hey,
tag that one right there, Tagg it tay, and I
(32:05):
will and I will say this. Uh, people are not
giving Jacoby UH brissette enough. He Bawling. I mean he
he's going for one. He's managing the hell out of
the football game. Hold up, he's an accurate one. Travisky
went too far behind. I mean, I'm just saying now
(32:27):
it's completely different. Yeah, but he wasn't too far behind. Hey,
and when you know, when I think about Jacobe Broussett,
you know, you know where the first thing comes to mind. What?
And then APP was coach Y'all had him at quarterback,
but he wasn't good enough for you know, he didn't
have a good enough team around him. People, the browns
have a roster. Hey, you know what comes to mind
(32:49):
when I hear Jacoby Brissette. I think about brisket. For
some strange reason, I don't know it's Saturday, because you
like to cook and eat it. Just it just kind
of hits me in a way where I'm like brisket,
like man, that sounds so good right now, and I'm
like we should call it Jacobe brisket. You know what
I mean? I don't know, it's just me. I'm just
I get a little hungry, you know what I mean?
(33:10):
But I'll tell you what. Somebody else is hungry, and
he's hungry for some quarterback controversy for the team that
he owns. We'll get into that and we're hitting into
our two as well. Stayed locked in. This is up

this dude, he's he's a brilliant guy. Whether you like him,
whether you love him, whether you hate him out of
I don't know. But Jerry Jones always is the quote
(35:40):
in the sound bite that keeps on giving. He says
some of the most interesting things out of his mouth
when he does his weekly spots on the radio. FELLAS,
here's one of the latest things he had to say,
and I just got to hear what you guys are
thinking about it. Go Take it away with Jerry's thoughts
on the quarterback situation. When and be something. If you
(36:00):
had a dilemma, that's too of which way you go.
You do that. If he gets ten wins, the same thing.
That happened with Prescott. I think like that. So you'd
want that. You'd want that controversy. Of course that mains
win one if it comes in and played his one
as Prescott played. Russia played that well over these next
(36:21):
games and I'm walked to New York to good time
I mean, did he just tell the world that basically,
Prescott is in the same position that Tony Romo was
in when he lost his job to Dak Prescott? I mean,
we only got a couple of seconds there, but guys,
I mean, what's your take on Jerry Joe's wanting? Like,
(36:42):
of course, I'm okay. Would there be at a quarterback controversity? Man,
Jerry just talking. Man, Jerry just talking. He don't mean that.
He don't want no controversy. They just paid that man.
They cut cooper rush and nobody signed him. Yeah, he
beat the Bengals. The bengals aren't playing. Good, man, they don't.
He don't want a controversy. That will not be a controversy.
(37:03):
That's just all talk, man. Whatever it takes to motivate
your team. Jerry Jones is gonna do it. And those
comments that he just made to everybody. He just doesn't
want to have another loosing season, so he will. Of
course he wants his quarterback to go out and win
some games so they can at least compete in the
NFC east to win the division. But as far as
(37:26):
a quarterback controversy, we know that. We know that Russia
is not the guy. Like he said, they just paid
that he's a franchise quarterback, but he's just hoping that.
You know what, I just hope connor rush don't fall
on his face. And when, when, when that Prescott is
healthy enough to come back, we at least have an
opportunity called the man made the playoffs. But controversy not
(37:50):
gonna happen. If I was if I was James Jackson,
I was a guy on Jerry Jones's head on this one.

(02:56):
always doing good. Baby. May there sky the palm trees today. Hey,
my man, come in. He Ready? Hey, and I just
had to remind you all, because you know they've been
playing good football. You'll remember that bad we made with
them Detroit lions. Right, Y'all, remember that? Right. Who was they? Hey, Ryan,
pulled that out for your boydads and put for your
(03:16):
boy that run. Do we really have the sound of this?
was there? was there really some sound of TJ saying
something about the Detroit Lions? So, so so, TJ, are
you insinuating that Dan Campbell is taking on the attitude
of the city? They're biting off knee, keptain getting knocked
(03:37):
the hell out, but get was the Detroit lions will
not finished last in that division, and Y'all beg to differ. Yeah,
and it's early in the season. I just want to
remind it's only week two. We get to it. It's
early in the season, but I like what I'm seeing.
I wouldn't brag about that right now, but you know,
it's it's good to be bold in the moments of
(03:58):
time where the being bold can be and the dolphins
was gonna make it happy. Come on, it's early in
the season. It's wots and a half. I mean that's
pretty good, but uh uh lava is still the same
guy that said the Green Bay packers would win the
Super Bolts. I did, and it's still early in the season.
Hey listen. So speaking to that, we'll we'll get to
(04:19):
some other things. Obviously, Uh James Jackson on on your
head will be next and and we'll preview. We'll talk
about that browns and steelers game. Can't wait to hear
uh plexus take on on the steelers. Yeah, be interesting.
And Jerry Jones, you know some controversy there uh could
be brewing in Dallas. But you you made mention of
(04:41):
the you know of the Miami Dolphins, T J, and
you know they have a big game this week. In fact,
that's the A F C matchup of the week, the
bills and the dolphins, and the bills are going to
Um to Miami to play them. I'm I'm interested to
(05:01):
hair your guys his thoughts on this game, because the
bills are seemingly as good as advertised. I mean, like
we said, it is early in the season. So just
like you can talk about a team that well, seemingly
was a bad team that looks pretty good right now,
could possibly not be good later on, I mean this
(05:22):
bill's team. It's early, but they look the part that
they they seemingly are way better, whatever the von Miller
effect is on on teams. That this defense is much better,
much improved from being a good defense um the last
few years. And the offense, it just seems like Josh
(05:44):
Allen has improved leaps and bounds as a quarterback every
single year he's been in the league. Uh Man Digs
is playing some great football. That they seem balanced. Is this?
Is this the team to beat? And and what type
of what type of implications are they're connected to this
Miami game, because while we will look at Miami and
(06:06):
say this is a talented group, finally, too, it getst going.
They were down like they were down. Baltimore had the
game and I don't know if this was more about
Baltimore losing the game versus it was Um this this
Miami Dolphins team winning the game. We'll go ahead, go
(06:26):
you guys, gotta go ahead take it. Oh, it has
everything to do with Baltimore losing this football game. And listen,
if you're going to halftime, you're twenty seven and you're
playing in Baltimore. I mean we've always said that the
ANFC north is is probably one of the toughest divisional
conferences in football. And for listen, I don't care who
(06:47):
too has. We know that he has all the speed
in the world at the wide recely position, Water Cheetah
in the in the and the other young man. But
for them, with school, thirty or five points in the
second half down in Baltimore, to win that football game.
I mean, trust me, nobody saw that coming. When when
the school I thought the football game was over with,
(07:08):
to be honest with you, because I'm just thinking that.
You know, look, two is gonna be tour it's gonna
take the Miami Dolphins or a little bit more time
going into the season to to gather rapport and to
be able to go up and, you know, put those
kind of points up that we saw the other day,
but not in week two. I was surprised the way
that they came out of performed offensively, especially against a
(07:31):
defensive football team, and for them to score that many
points in the second half. So listen. I may have
uh spoken some words about two of not being as
good as I thought he was, but man, listen, he
was delivering that football man, he was accurate and and
of course, man that tyree hill man. He just changes
(07:51):
the whole you know, complexity of your offense, just being
able to run through his own getting guys open. And
you know, listen, that the Miami Dolphins are streamly explosive.
This is the thing the bills. They're the number one
defense in football. Last year, number one defense in national
football league. Last year the bills looked apart. They played
(08:12):
the part. They are the part. That's just what they are.
The bills have a really good team. But when, when
I look at each team of all, when you tour,
tour was really good in college, really good in college
with quite possibly in the first pick, he doesn't get hurt,
or if Joe just doesn't play out of his world,
still drafted top five. He had extremely talented weapons at Alabama.
(08:38):
He comes into the League, he doesn't have the players
around him in the League that he had in college,
so he doesn't play well. It doesn't help that Brian Flores,
he has three offensive coordinators in two years. People forget that.
Brian Flores, I don't know if he supported to the
way he needed to be supported. He gets a new
(08:59):
head coach, he gets a risk either that can just
slide out play now to looks like, Oh my God,
he's a guy, he was at Alabama. It's early in
the season, it's only two games, so there's so much
more to show. He's gonna continue to show that because
he has receivers now that he had similarly in college.
They can run, they're quick, they're gonna run routes, they're
(09:20):
gonna threaten defenses. Tour looks the part. What I don't
like is, Oh, too people's tour can't play two. Is
this two? Is that tour starts playing well? Well, you
know he does have Jalen Watt on tyreek hill, so
he should play well. And you know you can't. You can't.
To me, this goes hand in hand because there's certain
(09:41):
quarterbacks that how many quarterbacks? It doesn't matter who they
playing with, they're gonna make it happen. How many? Maybe
one or two? Maybe one or two's exactly. So every
quarterback you gotta have these receivers on the outside and
tight ends and you it's a complementary game. It's eleven
guys and so I believe this matchup is gonna be
(10:02):
a good matchup. The bills are a better complete team,
but they have some key players missing. It's not like
they're gonna be going out. I'm in full strength. I'm
looking forward to it. Um, it should be very interesting
because tyreek kill is one guy at the bills they
seem to change up how they play when he's on
the field, so that will be interesting. And defensively for
(10:23):
the for the bills. Man, losing mica high for the season, man,
that's uh, that's a that's a big blow and some
shoes they're gonna have to feel and I don't think
they're gonna be able to do it right away. Yeah,
his athleticism, his ability to read the quarterback and keep
guys on the same page like back into that defense.
A lot of times guys like him, you really don't
(10:43):
appreciate him and then when they're not on the field
you're like Oh man, especially to other guys on the team,
other guys on that defense, when you're a good communicator,
they're gonna miss that. Yeah, man, I listen. I think
this is a tremendous moment, more for the dolphins than
for the bills. Right I think this is the bills
(11:06):
can continue to show their dominance, but if they were
to lose this game, I think it would be more
about praising Uh to uh depending on his performance, which
I think he's gonna have to have a tremendous performance
for them to win this game. So I think this
is just more about more of the Miami Dolphins versus
(11:28):
versus of being the bills. If the bills let this
get away, I think it does raise questions, but not
enough questions to say this still isn't probably the team
to beat in the National Football League. Depending on the
way they they would lose the game. But for the dolphins,
this could be a defining moment for them. Uh, the
(11:50):
coach's young career, Daniel his his young career Um in
in Miami. This this could go a long way for
job security for for the head coach, this could go
a long way for for you know, two of being
the catalyst of of this team and what that means
moving forward after such a turbulent and scrutinized start to
(12:12):
his his career. I'm I'm really excited to see how
this plays out, because it's an early it's an early
season matchup, but yet it just seems to be a
lot writing on it. As it applies to is this
is this Miami Dolphins team. Can we take them seriously?
Or was that, you know, kind of and Aberition of
(12:34):
sorts for for them against against the Ravens and being
able to come back the way that they did? I
mean sometimes you could take your foot off the pedal
and and take that you know, not had that gas
down and then the team can, you know, catch up
to you and you just don't have the ability to
be able to to change the tide and it's you know,
I'm not sure if that was the case, but it
(12:56):
could have been. So I'm I'm interested to see how
that is. Don't think even if the Miami Dolphins do
win this football game, and if they win it convincingly,
I don't think everybody's gonna jump out of the window
and say that do your Miami Dolphins or a team
to beat in this division. No, but you're gonna start, Hey, hey,
but you're gonna start adding them to the conversation. I'll
(13:19):
tell you that. You'RE gonna start. If they if they
have a convincing went. Hell, I don't care if it's
convincing or not. If they beat the bills, you're gonna
start having a conversation about the Miami Dolphins being a
legitimate contender for the A F C south and and
who knows, like it's sets the stage. Excuse me, actually,
(13:40):
it sets it sets the IT sets the conversation up
for Um. What do you you know, how do you
look at this, this team moving forward? Right? I mean
it drastically changes the narrative if they beat the bills,
right or wrong? Yeah, because nobody thought or would think
that the Miami Dolphins will be competitive and off, you know,
(14:01):
this year to be able to beat the bills. I
mean that that was a full going conclusion that they could, uh,
you know, go to buffalo or or buffalo go to
Miami and and and and then for to win this
football game. So, I mean, listen, everything is gonna Weil
for them, but if they do go out and get
a win, you know what, maybe the Miami Dolphins are
(14:24):
turned in the corner. I could think it. I still
believe the bills are gonna win the Super Bowl, but when,
when loser draw that, this means more for Miami that
that win last week was an eye opener. This will
show like they for real, the Miami Dolphins, that they're
gonna be a team to be reckoned with now till
the end of the season. All right. Well, we'll see
(14:46):
how that that plays out and will definitely be around
to talk about it and discuss it. Jerry Jones, he's
hoping for a quarterback controversy. Really that should be interesting.
We got the sound on that. We'll get to that later,
but next it's gonna be our Guy James Jackson of
the on your head podcast. He's getting on somebody's head
and we'll discuss that, uh in moments. All right. So
(15:08):
you're listening to up on games, T J Hushman's eyes,
Plexico birth. I'm Lavar ARRINGTON. Will take quick break. We'll
be right back. All right, welcome back into the show.
You're listening to up on game. We'll get to Jerry
Jones in a matter of moments. We'll get to the
legendary man himself, Isaac Lowen Cron for trending, but first,
(15:31):
right now, we gotta get to our Guy James Jackson.
You know, he gets on people's head from the straight
facts podcast on up on game presents network. I wonder
whose head he's gonna get on this week. Well, without
further ado, let's find out. It's I'm on your head
(15:54):
with James Jackson. Now we know that there are a
lot of teams who didn't end season last year the
way that they wanted to, some teams so much so
that they got rid of their quarterback and brought in
a new one who's about a decade older, thinking that
that was going to be the answer to their problems.
But it's not. The Indian APP was colts I'm on
(16:14):
your head. See, this is a team coming into the
season this year, had aspirations of winning the A F
C south, but right now it's their season that's going
down south, because starting off the season by first tying
the Texans and then getting goose Egged blanked by the
Jacksonville Jaguars. I mean that's not even shaky, man. That's
(16:35):
so straight up disappointing. And Bad quarterback play continues to
haunt this team. So, through two games, let's take a
look at Qb Matt Ryan stats this season so far.
Only five seven yards, one touchdown, four picks. On a
quarterback rating. Yeah, I'd say Maddie ice is starting to
freeze up just a little bit, and that's really tough
(16:57):
that this is the one position that they can't get good,
consistent play out of. It's ironic that ever since Andrew
left they haven't had any luck at quarterback, isn't it?
But I don't feel bad for India at all. They
really could have decided to just run this back with Carson,
fix a few things here and there and hopefully it
will be better. But instead you run him out of
town and now you're stuck with Matt Ryan for the
(17:18):
rest of this season at least. So figure it out.
But it's really not all his fault. This colts team
just doesn't seem to have the same Guinea up as
they did last season. So they better think they're lucky
horseshoes that they play in the ANFC sound because even
with an old one in one start, there's still time
to dust themselves off and get back on the Horse,
the Colt to be specific. I'm on your head. Uh,
(17:45):
let me ask you a question. When this trade happened
between Atlanta Falcons and Carson wins, I remember me and
you having this conversation and I specifically ask you this question.
I said, do you think so? Are you telling me
that Matt Ruyn is a tremendous upgrade from Carson Wentz?
(18:09):
I don't think. I don't think you used yes. No, no,
no, no no, I don't think you didn't use the word tremendous,
but give or take a few words that you just expressed,
you are correct, Plexico, you are. I I believe he
was more consistent than Carson Wentz. The coach just starting
(18:30):
a good football team right now. Shakier Leonard, who was
previously Darius Leonard, isn't healthy. He isn't playing. UH, their
best receiver, Michael Pittman, did not play last week. They
have a hard time against Jacksonville regardless. All I'm saying
is you are and you have Jonathan Taylor at running
(18:52):
back and you can't find a way to put on
the board. Let me ask you this, plex Michael Pittman
isn't playing. Can you name another receiver on that team? Problem?
T Y Hillon, ain't even in the league. Lavar go so? No,
and that's my point, and it's not to disparage any
of them, it's Michael Pittman isn't playing. I didn't say
(19:16):
name a starter, I said name another receiver on that team.
Nobody knows Desmond Patton, nobody knows Alex Pierce. They don't
know these dudes and just because you don't know who
they are, they still got to go out of perform.
If Jonathan Taylor can't be effective, that means the opposing
(19:38):
team's defensive coordinator doesn't respect what you have on the outside.
WE'RE gonna load up on a run and force you
to beat us. I do believe Matt Ryan played a
more consistent brand of foot by the quarterback position than
Carson wins. He's not gonna turn the ball over, he's
not gonna fold, but they don't have the weapons. They're struggling.
(19:58):
And then I need the check on my boy darn
Darrol Smith. He was doing all my coats going to
the Super Bowl. They're fighting just to win the division,
and so they they they are in a rough spot,
but these quarterbacks need weapons. You gotta understand man. Look
at Matt Ryan's career and who he's played with at
the scale position. Just Look Roddy White, Julio Jones, Tony Gonzalez,
(20:23):
Calvin Ridley, Kyle Pitts. I mean what? This is his career,
not a season or his career. He's had those guys.
That's true. That is true. Plex I don't I think
it's a great scenario that plays out for the coats. And,
be honest with you, this was a team that looked
like roster wise, they were ready to go, you know,
(20:45):
make a run for that Super Bowl Um, but they
just they look like they are regressing, like seriously, like
I don't, I don't know that this is uh Oh,
it's an early season deal and they'll get it together
and the play. I was a skeptic of Matt Ryan
just because of his age. I mean, I would just
be honest. It just seemed like he got the hell
(21:07):
beat out of him and and just wasn't the same
Guy Um in in Atlanta, and that's why they were
okay with letting him go. Sometimes another person's trash become
somebody else's treasure. We've seen that happen before. But sometimes
somebody's trash and somebody else's trash, you know, and he's
gotta address it and be like, listen to all those
(21:28):
players that you just named, Kyle Pitts, Tony goes all white,
by the way. All those players that he played with.
You exactly right, but if you can't get it done
with those group of guys, then then what the hell
are you gonna do when you don't have a a
pittman or you don't have any wire was? I mean,
how do you how do you expect for this young
(21:50):
man to perform? It's gonna be tough. That's why James
was on their head. Na, guess that's why I had
to get on their head. But you know who's gonna
get on this updating and this trending? You know who
gets on that? You know who crushes it like no
one else does. You know who knocks him down like
(22:10):
well did? Yeah, you know, it's our guy, not just
how Mike Tyson would typically knock people out. I'm talking
about Mike Tyson against Michael spink's if you will. You
know what, guys, the reason why we got a ton
(22:30):
of fresh NFL news for you, starting with this. The
buffalo bills. Their safety, Micah Hyde, gonna be placed on
season ending injured reserve today because of his recent neck injury,
according to his agent. The Baltimore Ravens have downgraded left
tackle Ronnie Stanley to out for tomorrow's game at New
England because of an ankle injury. The Tampa Bay buccaneers
(22:52):
announced moments ago that they have elevated recently signed receiver
cold Beasley to their active roster for tomorrow's game against
the EN bay packers. Multiple NFL owners have told The
Washington Post in recent days that they believe serious consideration
may be given to attempting to oust Washington Commander's owner
(23:12):
Daniel Snyder from the league's ownership ranks, either by convincing
him to sell his franchise or by voting to remove him.
Snyder is facing a congressional investigation and a separate league
commissioned investigation into allegations of misconduct. Other than that, everything's
fine anyway. On the college football scoreboard right now, Georgia,
(23:35):
on a seventy five yard touchdown run by Brock bowers
and a safety, has a nine three lead over Kent
State ten minutes into the game. Fourth ranked Michigan up
seven three over Maryland. Four and half minutes in. Fifth
ranked Clemson has just taken a fourteen to nothing lead
at wake forest with five Oh nine left to play
in the first quarter. Seventeen thranked Baylor and Iowa state
(23:59):
tied at set with two fifty five left to play
in the first quarter, and number twenty four Pittsburgh as
a fourteen to six lead as we speak over Rhode Island,
and they have five minutes and nine seconds left to
play in the first quarter there. Um, let me see.
Is there any underscore to Michigan state or any state?
(24:20):
I'm only doing top twenty five scores right now. There's
any other top you know there is. There is one
top twenty five score I missed, no interest to anybody here.
Fourteen rank Penn state of fourteen to nothing lead over
Central Michigan with four twenty two left to play in
(24:42):
the first quarter. Back to you, Michigan. What? What? What
we're talking about? Michigan State? Last week anyway, let's let's
for anybody to play it. Well, I'll tell you what.
If you thought it was a tough venue or not,
you could have put your bet down that the draft

the Browns uh beat the steelers. The steelers seemingly had
(25:24):
pulled things together. They get out of out of a
game with Cincinnati, TJ's team, and you know what, it
wasn't pretty, but you had the feeling that this team
could be that scrappy Pittsburgh team that plays defense, finds
a way to move the ball on the ground and
(25:44):
and and gets the ball to receivers seemingly every single year.
It doesn't look like it's playing out that way right
now and I it just you know, we heard at
moments in time where, you know, the fans, we're chanting
for picket. Now do you have this sound, uh Sam
(26:08):
and burst of of Um Ben Roethlisberger. Maybe it wasn't sound,
maybe it was just a quote, but I thought it
was interesting. Ben Roethlisberger comes out and basically it is
chastising people for not, uh, for looking at Mitch Robinski
as being the issue, saying that this guy is basically
(26:31):
a product of of the system, of the scheme. And
My Canada has now found himself in the crosshairs of
of a focal point of an inept offense that can't
seemingly be able to score, but at the same time,
this defense isn't a dominant defense either. Cleveland was able
(26:55):
to to really do what they needed to do, running
the ball, um moving the ball to to get touchdowns
to win this game. What what is the prognosis? Um,
I'll start with you on this one, plex, because this
is you know, this is your team. Can Mike Tomlin,
as great a coach as he has been, as as
as record setting, legendary as he's created accolades of never losing,
(27:20):
having a losing season? It looks like he's in danger
of losing that standing this season. You know, he hasn't
had a losing season since he's been to you know,
the tenure head coach for the for the Pittsburgh steell lose.
But uh, it may be going the other way. And
can we just address the elephant in the room please.
(27:41):
Let's do it. Let's do it. A few weeks ago,
like I said, it's tough for me to believe that
the best option at quarterback for the stealer is Mitchell rubisky. Listen,
he may be a hell of a guy. I've never
met the young man. He may be a great person,
but you know what, he just play quarterback, and that's
(28:02):
just playing and simple. We know who mate trubisky is.
He's been up. He was a backup that Josh Allen
for two years. So what makes us think that he's
gonna come off the sideline and Change his stripes? We
know who he is as a quarterback. He's not an
elite quarterback, the average at most. And guess what I said?
I said Mitchell trubisky and Marcus Mariota are thirty one
(28:26):
and thirty second best quarterbacks in this league, and right
now Mitchell trubisky is ranking thirty second at quarterback with
yards per pass. We know who he is. He's not
gonna come in and give you any kind of performance
as far as throwing the football where teams are going
to respect him. They're not gonna do it because he
(28:49):
hasn't shown US anything to make us think that he's
any different of a player. When he was in Chicago,
and I keep saying that he when he was brought in,
I thought that the Pittsburg still has brought him into
be an insurance policy and they were going to start
Kenney Pickett. Right now you're looking at the situation where,
you know what, we might as well just put the
(29:09):
young fell in see where we can get out of him,
because the guy that's under sending number ten, he's not
giving us the best option to win football games. And
it happened to us back and Oh fourth we wanted
we we won week one against the Cleveland browns. Unfortunately
for Tommy Maddocks, he went down in Baltore, in Baltimore
(29:30):
in certain number seven Ben Roethlisberg, and there and there
goes history. This young man in the football game right now,
because you have nothing else to lose, you expect every
be as good as bad. But he's gonna be as
good as been. But this pittsbrook still a team is
out of T J wats out for the season with
(29:51):
a torm peck and I've never seen the Cleveland browns
run the football on the Pittsburg steals like like Nick Chubb,
a hundred seventy one yards. This the model in Pittsburgh is.
You know what the standard is? The Standard, and giving
up a hundred and seventy one yards the Nick Chub football,
that is not the standard. That will not be tolerated
(30:14):
in Pittsburgh under any assumption. You can't stop the football,
you can't stop the ruin movement. Running the football and
moving the chains and keeping the clock running is a
recipe for winning football and the rule of thumb in
in in this profession. If you cannot stop the run,
(30:35):
you can't play defense and and and that's why, when
you bring up Ben Roethlisberger, it's not gonna happen. Ben
Roethlisberger was carried by that defense. That defense now is
not gonna Carry Kenny Pickett. I felt like Metro Trobinsky
was the best option because they know they need somebody
to have some type of experience Kenny Pickett. They wanted
(30:57):
him to stay on the side. Kenny pick is gonna
be the starting Quarterba by week seven at the latest
he'll be the starting quarterback. They just hope that Trabinsky
can get him some wins keep them competitive, which he's done.
He's shown who he is. But there's a reason this
quarterback class this season, the ricky class, wasn't highly thought of.
(31:20):
There was really who's the first round? I don't know.
Kenny Pickett slides into the first round. Kenny pickt what,
what are you gonna do better than M trobisky doing?
Run around well, and so they're trying to get him settled,
get him more experienced, just from watching learning. By mid season,
the same way they did with Big Ben, he's going
(31:42):
to be inserted as a starter. The biggest difference is
that defense isn't gonna be able to carry him like
they did with Big Ben, and so he'll have some
growing pains and this will probably. This ain't probably. This
will be Mike Thomas first losing season. It happens. Hey,
tag that one right there, Tagg it tay, and I
(32:05):
will and I will say this. Uh, people are not
giving Jacoby UH brissette enough. He Bawling. I mean he
he's going for one. He's managing the hell out of
the football game. Hold up, he's an accurate one. Travisky
went too far behind. I mean, I'm just saying now
(32:27):
it's completely different. Yeah, but he wasn't too far behind. Hey,
and when you know, when I think about Jacobe Broussett,
you know, you know where the first thing comes to mind. What?
And then APP was coach Y'all had him at quarterback,
but he wasn't good enough for you know, he didn't
have a good enough team around him. People, the browns
have a roster. Hey, you know what comes to mind
(32:49):
when I hear Jacoby Brissette. I think about brisket. For
some strange reason, I don't know it's Saturday, because you
like to cook and eat it. Just it just kind
of hits me in a way where I'm like brisket,
like man, that sounds so good right now, and I'm
like we should call it Jacobe brisket. You know what
I mean? I don't know, it's just me. I'm just
I get a little hungry, you know what I mean?
(33:10):
But I'll tell you what. Somebody else is hungry, and
he's hungry for some quarterback controversy for the team that
he owns. We'll get into that and we're hitting into
our two as well. Stayed locked in. This is up
on again. That's T J Hushman's out of Plexico Birds.
I'm Lavar ARRINGTON. We're gonna take a quick break and

Tie Your Rack Dot Com studio. Uh, Fellas, Jerry Jones, man,
this dude, he's he's a brilliant guy. Whether you like him,
whether you love him, whether you hate him out of
I don't know. But Jerry Jones always is the quote
(35:40):
in the sound bite that keeps on giving. He says
some of the most interesting things out of his mouth
when he does his weekly spots on the radio. FELLAS,
here's one of the latest things he had to say,
and I just got to hear what you guys are
thinking about it. Go Take it away with Jerry's thoughts
on the quarterback situation. When and be something. If you
(36:00):
had a dilemma, that's too of which way you go.
You do that. If he gets ten wins, the same thing.
That happened with Prescott. I think like that. So you'd
want that. You'd want that controversy. Of course that mains
win one if it comes in and played his one
as Prescott played. Russia played that well over these next
(36:21):
games and I'm walked to New York to good time
I mean, did he just tell the world that basically,
Prescott is in the same position that Tony Romo was
in when he lost his job to Dak Prescott? I mean,
we only got a couple of seconds there, but guys,
I mean, what's your take on Jerry Joe's wanting? Like,
(36:42):
of course, I'm okay. Would there be at a quarterback controversity? Man,
Jerry just talking. Man, Jerry just talking. He don't mean that.
He don't want no controversy. They just paid that man.
They cut cooper rush and nobody signed him. Yeah, he
beat the Bengals. The bengals aren't playing. Good, man, they don't.
He don't want a controversy. That will not be a controversy.
(37:03):
That's just all talk, man. Whatever it takes to motivate
your team. Jerry Jones is gonna do it. And those
comments that he just made to everybody. He just doesn't
want to have another loosing season, so he will. Of
course he wants his quarterback to go out and win
some games so they can at least compete in the
NFC east to win the division. But as far as
(37:26):
a quarterback controversy, we know that. We know that Russia
is not the guy. Like he said, they just paid
that he's a franchise quarterback, but he's just hoping that.
You know what, I just hope connor rush don't fall
on his face. And when, when, when that Prescott is
healthy enough to come back, we at least have an
opportunity called the man made the playoffs. But controversy not
(37:50):
gonna happen. If I was if I was James Jackson,
I was a guy on Jerry Jones's head on this one.
