Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. Welcome, It's our number one of the
original Recipe podcast. We were up all night recording this podcast,
The Ben Mahlers Show. The last game a week one
was played and the j e Ts Suck, Suck, Suck,
lived up to their legacy the old slip and fall
(00:22):
accident in the Bay Area. What's the good, the bad,
and the ugly from a dominating performance by the forty
nine ers, But from the Jets side of things? For
Robert Salah, the good, the bad and the ugly? How
did Aaron Rodgers look for the Jets hadn't played football
in a long time? And what stood out to you
most in this game? From the forty nine Ers side
(00:44):
of things, a surgical takedown of the highly hyped Jets.
We'll talk about all that and much more right now.
We'll put the biscuit in the basket here in our
number one, yet another bumpy flight for the Jets. Well
come in the be gaining of another night of the
(01:07):
Ben Malors Show. We are in the air everywhere united
as we hang in Bennie's backyard, coast stuck coast, border
to border and beyond on the vast and stylishly powerful
microphones of fsre am monading live from the break. As
(01:31):
we break the huddle, we're broadcasting live from the Tirac

way tire buying should be. Steven Manhattan, I got a
(01:54):
message from from Terry in Inglany's Oh, Steve's not gonna call,
No Steve, you don't understand the minds of the Jet fan.
The Jet fan would rather the team be a pit
of misery than good. So I would push back on that.
This is a vintage night for the Jets franchise. Our lead,
don't bear the lead. Our lead from the Bay Area.
(02:17):
That's what everyone's talking about. That is where the final
chapter of Week one of the NFL storybook came to
an end. The Brock Purty and the Ragning runner ups
in the NFL, the forty nine Ers hosting Aired Rogers,
and the j E t s Suck Sucks, suck. Now
you had the old Fox refugees, Joe Back and Troy
(02:39):
Aikman who were calling the game, and don't if you
saw it or not. Maybe you did not watch it.
You might have direct TV and you were l screwed.
But don't worry. We watched it so you would not
have to and you didn't miss much. You did not
miss much. Someone named Jordan Mason, we don't even know
who that is, but he ran circles around the Jets
(03:01):
finished with one hundred and forty seven yards and touchdown.
And he was the backup because Christian McCaffery couldn't play.
The forty nine ers, sullying the Aaron Rodgers comeback story.
The highly publicized comeback up Aaron Rogers, a thirty two
(03:21):
to nineteen thumping, easily covering the points spread without their
top player, a win for the Niners over the Jets
on Monday Night. The better story is in the losing
locker room. So that is where we begin. Let us
discuss the question what is the good, the bad, and
the ugly from this performance for Robert Sallas Jets. So
(03:46):
I've got Medello, Low's and academia, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
make a pack up your bad and leave situation, which
is what the Jets did. They packed up their bag
they got the heck out of there right after he
(04:06):
came ended. Well, I guess the good news this nobody died.
As far as we know, no one died. There were
no death reported in the Jets traveling party. To my knowledge,
no players were seriously injured in the game for the Jets.
Now the bad that would be Aaron Rogers and the offense.
More on that coming up here in a bit.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
The ugly.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Was the defense. Now. I had been told by the
experts that the Jets they love this defense. They had
first round pick, second round picks all over this defense.
They love to pump their chest out and bragged very
braggadocious about the defense for the Jets. Gang Green played
(04:49):
like they had Gang Green in this game. That was
the junior varsity absolutely manhandled and the forty nine ers
off so on the defensive side against the Niners. Against
the Jets rather offensive line. The Niners defense bruised and
battered the New York offensive line on both sides, both sides.
(05:12):
An island game. Everyone's watching the island game, living the
island life. To give me an idea of how big
a man handle this was for the Jets defense, with
all those first and second round picks. The forty nine
Ers scored eight consecutive drives. Eight times they either got
a field goal or a touchdown. The big uglies, the
(05:36):
big uglies. The Jets were kicked, they were need they
were elbowed, they were poked in the eye from pillar
to post in this particular game. And they played gutless football.
And that is the worst thing you can say about
a team. Watching the approach to Jets have. This is
(05:57):
a referendum on the motivational speaker, the Tony Robbins of
the NFL, Robert Sala who pedigree is that of a
defensive guru, defensive coordinator for the forty nine ers, and
the Jets happen to be playing. And so this is
a measuring stick game. This is a measuring stick. We
know the Jets aren't as good as the forty nine ers,
(06:18):
but how far away are they? And we have the
answer now I can say, beyond a reasonable doubt, the
Jets at this point in the NFL season blow chunks.
They blow jeez. There's a line that I love. The
late Mike Leech had it, and I apply this to
(06:38):
all coaches. I honor the memory of Mike Leach my
favorite all time college football coach, Mike Leach, who preached
that you're either coaching it or you're allowing it to happen.
And I use that standard for Robert Salah and the Jets.
The Green team lacking that modello. They should have passed
out modello before the game. They did not have the
(06:59):
fighting spirit. I didn't realize they traveled by stagecoach from
New Jersey to California. Did they get the Spanish flu
somewhere in Colorado? I don't know. But they were absolutely emasculated.
They showed no real pushback at all. He even had
I love this sauce Gardener. Now, if you believe the
Jets take them at face value. All these teams lie.
(07:20):
But the Jets claimed that sauce Gardener, who didn't play
a lot in the second quarter, the Jets were saying
he wasn't heard. They said. They essentially said he was
out of breath, he was out of shape. Say what,
he's not fat, he's a little saucy, he's sauce Gardener.
(07:43):
And he missed a block in the second quarter. He
had to catch his breath. It's game one. These guys
don't even play in the exhibition games during training. What
are we doing? Wowser's all right now, page two. Let's
get now to the Komodo Dragon, the Komodo drag. There's
a fly buzzing around here. By the way, it just
(08:05):
landed on my face here. That's a wild anyway. So
let's get to a page two. How did Aaron Rodgers
look for the Jets? So this is a cover your
eyes situation. The Benny bright side in me says, well,
he looked choppy. He looked choppy. That's the bright side
(08:28):
part of it. Mix and match. A drop pass here,
a tip pass over there, frustration mounting. That was the
kind of performance you expect from a Jets quarterback. That
wasn't what people remember. Rogers was becoming bad as last
year in Green Bay. He was starting to show signs
of falling apart. But the overall body of work, I
(08:52):
think you'd agree with me on this that the body
of work was pretty good, right. And the question is
this was a bumpy flight, A lot of issues there,
a lot of turbulence for the flight here. The oxidation
can't be fixed, right. Was this simply corrosion from not
(09:13):
playing in a long time and going out and having
a lot of ayahuasca with Joe Rogan and things like that.
Because you can fix that. Oxidation can be fixed. You
go down to Low's or Home Depot, whatever your vivid
hardware store is, and you buy an industrial sized container
of WD forty. The issue is there is a dimension
(09:37):
where this is not just Russ. This is Aaron Rodgers
being an old fogie that he's passed his expiration date,
and that that's the case. You're cooked, You are absolutely cooked.
The jets will non fly out. Rogers did have the
body language of a guy that was starting to realize
(09:57):
in the late second quarter that this is not northern Wisconsin.
This is a little different. There might be one green,
green and white, but there's something else going on. Now
the last word here. We now pivot to the winning
locker room, not the better story, but the winning locker room.
And we asked the question what stood out to you
(10:19):
the most from the forty nine ers on their side
of the ledger. So I will address this to the
esteem panel here, and the first thought I have is academia.
It's like comparing different levels of education. You've got the
forty nine ers who are a master student, and then
You've got the Jets who are doing finger painting. They're
(10:41):
in kindergarten. They're just trying to make sure they can
hold their urine to go to the bathroom. That's the Jets,
right and now, I'm not going to sit here and
say that I thought this was going to be the
way it played out. I did not. If you saw
Benny Versus the Penny on television this past weekend, I
was optimistic that they would be able to hang around here,
(11:02):
and I didn't see this type of domination coming. I
guess I should have, but all the drama was hovering
around the forty nine ers. You had holdouts in training camp,
lack of practice reps for the key players who were out.
You mix in. I didn't know this at the time
we did the TV show, but you got Christian McCaffrey
who missed the game. You had all the ingredients for
(11:23):
the forty nine ers to come out and have an
absolute clunker. It's early in the season these first couple
of weeks, so like glorified what used to be exhibition games.
But they don't play those anymore. The players don't. The
star players got forbid. They play in these exhibition games.
So he had everything you needed in the recipe for
this game to be competitive. And yet even early on
(11:46):
I was still I was somewhat optimistic. Girl. Now Brandon
IOC missed a opportunity to score a touchdown, he dropped
a touchdown. I guess they got to pay more money
to catch that pass. So you had that. Yet brock Purty,
who came out and was wobbly, was wobbly in the
first quarter of the game. And then all of a sudden,
this goose shows up that laid the golden egg, someone
named Jordan Mason. We still don't really know who this
(12:07):
guy was. And he steps in and is the ultimate
plug and play running back. This has been the argument
against paying a running back, and the Niners paid a
running back more than anybody in Christian McCaffrey. And yet
you put a guy like this, And how much of
that was Jordan Mason, how much of that was the scheme,
and how much of that was the Jets stink, Well
we'll never know. But Jordan Mason thirty three uneventful games
(12:32):
undrafted out of the rambling wreck of Georgia Tech, and
he went from roster spam to a starring role and
one hundred and forty seven yards, pivoting, moving around what
you want. I mean, he was able to run around
through Jet defenders. He absolutely torched the Jets. You got
(12:56):
burned by Jordan Mason. That's who beat you, that guy
right there. And the lack of ability on the offensive
and defensive. I think the Jets need to suck another
twenty years and draft more linemen. And yeah, that's the ticket.
It is the Ben Mallord Show. If you'd like to
be part, we open up the lines, we release the lines,
(13:17):
and you can join us right now if you would
like to be part, and every line open there if
you're so inclined to speakeasy rules are in effect also
on X at Ben Mahlor, that is at Ben Malor.
We do go through a lot of commentary from you,
So send those questions in or comments or whatever and
we'll run through a bunch of them. So I rather
(13:40):
benign Monday night game. In terms of competition, there was
no competition after the first quarter. Once the Niners turned
on the old engine there in the second quarter, that
was it turn out the last the parties over. But
is it true that coach Kyle Shanahan could be in
a whole lot of trouble by something that happened on
(14:03):
Monday night, and that the forty nine ers are looking
at an NFL investigation because there's something that took place
on Monday night. We'll get to the bottom of that,
and we will do it next.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
The great silent majority of listeners to The Ben Maler
Show sit on the sidelines, never having their opinions heard.
You're invited to break the glass ceiling by taking up
gigabytes with the Ben Maler Show. Just follow your host
on x He's at Ben Mallard and you can post
that and follow me. Eddie Garcia, your humble sidekick, the
voice of Reason, your news guy. You're announcer guy. I'm
at Eddie on Fox and I'll live from the tyrack
(15:27):
dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Oh, bad news, Eddie. You're gonna have to go to
the principal's office. You were tardy and you're gonna have
to run some laps after the show. I hope you're
okay with that, but you were Truanton. Then it's part
of the job here when you're not here on time,
got to run some laps. So well, Steve said he
wanted to do an extra update reps. He was throwing
things in there. He was furious. You know what, was
(15:52):
very annoyed.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
If you want to do an extra update, that's okay.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
No, no, no, no. He had places to go. He was
all dressed up, he ready to go out a night
on the town with his wife, and you deprived him.
How dare you? How dare you did you fall asleep
during the Monday night game. Is that what happened? You
fell asleep watching the Jets? Is that what happened? To
say yes, say yes, that's a better story. Say yes, yes, Okay,
(16:16):
thank you. I don't need to know the reels. I'm
sure whatever the real story is is not that interesting.
It is not. But the fact that you fell asleep
watching the Jets almost like the Jets offensive line fell
asleep and defensive line fell asleep in that game, Now
that is magical. You feme in Chicago, writes, and he
(16:36):
says a plus and a New York bago on the
Maland monologue, Robert Sadler should consider martyring himself in the
name of New York, he says. Shannon des Moines wants
more al fun facts, more al fun facts, more al
fun facts. I'm sure Alf will send a bunch. In
Late Night, drug tester says, I heard Christian McCaffrey was
out and was worried about the over bet. Wasn't sure
(16:59):
the Jets were going to score enough to make it pay.
Rest easy, Rest easy. I had some garbage time points there.
Outstanding at absolutely outstanding. Rob the ambassador of Bakersfield right,
since is at this point in the season, are weasel
words been? You can do better than that other than that,
(17:21):
pretty much correct, Rogers. We have some postgame audio we
didn't play. I think we should play some of this
right now. We have Robert Sala, Robert Sala, who's in
over his head, doesn't seem to know what he's doing.
He's being paid to coach the Jets, but doesn't seem
to be doing very good at that. Here's Robert Sala
and he's claiming that Aaron Rodgers never had an opportunity
(17:43):
to get things started.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
We never really gave him a chance to get into rhythm.
You know. Defensively, they just you know, credit to the
San Francisco. They did a great job run the ball.
They're very effishent in the past game, even in the
second half when we feel like we made some adjustments
in the wrong game and they still were minus one
explosive thought we did good in the rung game, but
you know, they're really good in the past game too.
You know, they're an elite football team, and I know
(18:07):
they're a missing Christian, but they still have Deebo and
ayuk and and Jennings and a really good old line
and a really good quarterback. So you know, credit to them.
They executed a heck a lot better than we didn't.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
We gotta be better.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
So I have my malor Rosetta stone. And what he
just said was a bunch of gobblygook. It was that
they're good and we blow. That's what he said. He
just used a lot of words. It was a word salad.
Here's Aaron Rodgers aired Rogers. He's going to get very
proficient at explaining losses. He didn't lose that many games
(18:39):
in the regular season Rogers with the Packers. But oh yeah,
and now he's a jet. Here's Rogers on his latest explanation.
Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
Yeah, you know, we were just bad on first and
second down. I think for a lot of the game.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
That's it.
Speaker 6 (18:54):
Then you know, we had a couple of guys we
converted third downs, but overall, you know, we we we
feel like we didn't have any third and ten pluses tonight,
so that's always a good.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Thing, that's a positive.
Speaker 6 (19:03):
But yeah, we didn't convert those third mediums. You know,
we had a drop, we had a couple penalties and
a bad throw, so not the correct but overall, I
feel you know, I feel good about our guys. Thought
the protection was really good tonight. We just had a
little bit off in the in the run game, couldn't
give Bristc co on and couldn't give them enough space.
(19:23):
But a lot to build on.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Yeah, so the Jets, the game was over going to
the fourth quarter. The Jets after three quarters had eight
first downs in the game, eight and then there was
garbage time in the fourth and they got like six
first downs in the fourth quarter. But the game was
over going to the fourth quarter. I mean, we can
break it down every way you want slice it off,
(19:46):
but terrible, terrible trip. But now there is some controversy,
and that's that's red meat right in my my wheelhouse here,
that's in the lions Den or the Mallers. Then here
some controversy following the game. Is it true that coach
Kyle Shanahan is in trouble with the NFL? Will the
NFL be investigating the forty nine ers after their win
(20:08):
on Monday night? It appears that the forty nine ers
had been lying about the status of Christian McCaffrey, and
that they knew last week that McCaffrey was not going
to play in the game Monday night. Now you might say,
who cares about that? Well, fantasy football and gambling cares
about that, and those are two big businesses the NFL
(20:30):
is involved in directly, and it's all about transperity and
all that. And I'm trying to be honest and whatnot. Anyway,
I bring this up because Jordan Mason. I'm gonna play
a clip here in a second. But Jordan Mason after
the game on the Monday night broadcast was asked when
he found out he was going to play. Now, that
was a leading question by the sideline reporter. I don't
(20:53):
know who she is, but whoever asked the question, it
was a leading question because she expected him to say, well,
I found out half an hour I was. I was
dropping a deuce in the bathroom and Shanahan came in
there and told me I was gonna play like one
of those deals. But that's not what he said. He
said he was told on Friday night that he was
gonna play on Monday. But they made this big announcement
(21:14):
like an hour before the game that the Niners we're
gonna be without McCaffrey. Oh my god. But they knew
on Friday, according to the guy, according to the running
back Jordan Mason. So then Shanahan gets up at the
podium and he has to deny it because he knows
he's violated the NFL's rule book and they're gonna get
(21:34):
in trouble. He's gonna get in trouble and all that.
So then Jordan Mason got up to the podium and
listen to how bummed out Jordan Mason was after he
just had the game of his life for the Niners.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
When did you find out that you'd be at the
starting lineup?
Speaker 7 (21:52):
That question, right there is is why I'm at That's
why I don't like really talking to media because one
thing wrong and then you know, I don't know, just
give that question.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's not say one thing wrong, it's say the truth.
You're not allowed to speak the truth the NFL. This
is why we always talk about we play audio from
coaches and players. Right, And I remember, I'll never get
late Dennis Green, May he rest in peace. Dennis Green
worked here briefly, right, and he would always talk about
how I tell a version of the truth, but not
(22:33):
the whole truth. Right, And it's like that you have
to tell these white lies. Right, It's pretty obvious based
on a minutes long Mallord investigation that Jordan Mason of
the forty nine ers initially told the truth, the inconvenient truth,
and that became a nuisance for Shanahan and the Niners.
(22:54):
And then they said, hey, wait a minute, dummy. They
gave him some venom and playing again to playing I
want to hit it again. This guy just had a
game of his life and he's asked the basic question.
And listen to how Sad Jordan Mason sounded from the
forty nine ers.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
When did you find out that you'd be in the
starting lineup?
Speaker 7 (23:14):
That question, right there is is where I'm at. Oh
that's why I don't like really talking to media, because
you say one thing wrong and then you know, I
don't know, just get that question.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Oh it's so good, it's so God just.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Had the game of his life, I know. And when
he came to the locker room, somebody chewed him out,
yelled at him.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
And sad Jordan Mason and this crime ed he was
being honest. His crime was saying what actually happened That
somebody called him up on Friday night and said, hey,
mcaffrey's not gonna be playing on Monday. You're in. But
they didn't want to announce it. They didn't want to
give the Jets some kind of advantage or whatever. And
you know all these mind games you gotta play, and
(24:03):
so what will come of this, Well, the Niners will
likely be called into the principal's office and they'll be
censured and they'll be fined, and that'll be that. And
it's not like this doesn't go on all the time.
It does go on all the time. We know it
goes on all the time. But it's just hilarious when
we get to peak how they make the hot dogs
and there's like one guy that's kind of doesn't get
it and doesn't know how to play the game and
(24:24):
give up the smoke screen and all that, and the
camouflage is away, and a guy who seemed like a
sweet man, a Jordan Mason, but he just couldn't use
the diversionary tactics that all these other losers use. I say,
suspend Shanahan's spend them. I think we should forfeit the
win for the Jets. Is that right? Come on? What
do you think? Yeah? No, take the win off the board,
(24:45):
give it to the Jets. Yeah, Cody and I don't
win the game because they had Shenanigans. That'll teach them.
That'll teach them right there.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Anyway.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Speaking of Blue losing, I know this is Mark's favorite segment.
Did the White Sox lose? Did they lose?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Put it on the bay?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Certainly did?
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Good Funday Boys Guardians.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Five to the final. It's one hundred and twelve losses.
They are eight away from tying nine away from breaking
the Mets all time record for losses in a season
with seventeen games left to go. I don't see how
they don't do it.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
You can do it, you can do it. We got
a fun fact, Daddy, fun fact, fun fact, fun fact.
The Buffalo Bills, who beat the Cardinals on sun. This
is a way to suck up to Bill's mafia. So
the Bills now hold the NFL record for most consecutive
regular season games without losing by more than six points.
(25:44):
Then you might say that doesn't really matter that much.
But if you're a gambler and you're playing those extreme
parlays or extreme teasers. I should say we get like
ten points by pretty much putting the Bills in every week.
You're you have been. Now, this is what has happened.
Doesn't get It's just going to continue to happen. But
the Bills have not lost by more than six points.
(26:06):
It has been forty two straight regular season games for
the Buffalo Bills, which means they're due on Thursday to
lose by about fifty points to the Dolphins. But at
this point the streak has continued there for the Buffalo Bills.
And that is the fun fact, putting the fun in
fun fact, as we like to do. This show is
sponsored by DraftKings. Stay tuned because you'll hear more about
(26:28):
DraftKings and all it has to offer throughout the show. DraftKings.
The Crown is yours. Ferd Dog says, according to Eddie,
he's been moonlighting as a mechanic, which is why he's
been tardy lately. Sure as hell wouldn't trust him with
my car? Is that true? Eddie? Are you working as
a mechanic now? Garcia's Auto Repair?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I just own this place, you own it?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
That's such as many? Yeah, just the boss there, Yeah,
there you go. Supermarkets. Steve says, I'm not sure if
Lorraina is in the night, but can we get that
sigh as a drop, just the sigh whenever Ben is
saying something, I want to hear that sigh. Well, supermarket, Steve,
(27:13):
you can say all you no, she's not here, so
go pound sand with a rob mallet. Why don't you
go try to go go in the ocean and try
to get all the water out of the ocean. Ferk
Duck says, a fly in the studio is a much
bigger story than whatever WNBA score. Eddie was reeling off.
How dare he talk back to you like that? I agree, Fergie.
(27:33):
And the guy shows up late, he's got sassy talk. Well,
I mean, what's going on with that's that's insane. Let's
go to Dre who is in central California, but he
is bleeding forty nine or red. Well many people bleeding red,
but he's a forty nine er fan.
Speaker 8 (27:49):
Hello Dre, Hey Ben, I caught your Benny and the
penny this week in and at Good Show, Good Show.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Oh well, thank you to stop right there. There's no
need to put a butt on there. There's no need
to add on to that. There's a perfect comment. It
was a good show.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
I noticed you went against the Niners, you went with
the Jets, but you know, hey, nobody need to commit
them all right. Well, and then again you said the
Rams are gonna ram it on down.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Well, let's keep in mind here that the object of
the game dray On Benny versus the Penny, which is
seen nationally on Peacock and around the country on regional
cable television on NBC. The whole point of the show
is to beat the penny. That I have to pick
more games right than the penny. So did I win
or did I lose? We'll have to find out next week,
same time, same penny station.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
I believe you won, sir, I believe.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
I don't know. I don't know. The producers have to
fact check everything, so I'll find out. But anyway, what's
on your mind?
Speaker 8 (28:50):
Oh? I got a couple a couple of questions for you. First,
Frank Gore was putting the forty nine Ers Hall of
Fame the day at halftime. He is the third lead
and his rusher at all time, and I know many
many sportscasters say he definitely in a first time Hall
of Fame ballot because they are saying he just played
(29:11):
too many years, ended up with sixteen thousand yards on
the dot. My thing is, if Harball would have gave
him the ball and the Super Bowl against the Ravens,
let him run it in, keep going for sure of
the first one.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
So you're doing what you're doing would have, could have should?
It is what you're doing. Yes, you're doing what he
could have. Shoot, you're admitting that. You're admitting you know,
you're doing what it could have should. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
you know. Frank Gore is like Tommy John. Tommy John
played a long time. I think Tommy should be in
the Hall of Fame the baseball evame. But he played
such a long time. It's like he accumulated a lot
(29:45):
of stats. And Frank Gore played until he was thirty seven,
to give you an idea, how long you played. When
he started as a rookie and in the twenty I
remember we had him on. I was doing a show
after the draft. He was a third round of the
forty nine ers and five. We had him on almost
twenty years ago. He had him on. He was coming
off that injury from his college days. But I don't
(30:09):
I don't think of him as a Hall of Famer.
I know, I don't think of him as a dominating force.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
He was.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
I understand, Yeah, I understand.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
I think like yeah, I think like Corey Dillon. Corey
Dillon was a good player. He didn't play as long,
but had similar impact for a few years. I didn't
think Overall or Shady McCoy or something like that. There
have been a bunch of backs like.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
That so well, the Niners long history. He is their
all time leading rusher. In his defense, but hey, can
I mention one thing about Tyreek Hill? Did you see
the film and the way he was acting when he
got over?
Speaker 1 (30:46):
I did, yes, Yes, I also saw he's doing. He
did a media circu he was on CNN, NBC. He
was making the rounds there, Tyreek, he was milking that
big time.
Speaker 8 (30:54):
Oh I'll tell you what I know, me or you
or Eddie or Coop have been talking to the po
pool like that. Our bus would have been in jail
and roll down the window.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
And yeah, what actually happened and what he said happened,
we're not exactly the same there. So now that the
cop was a hothead, But you got to go into
that thinking the cop might be a hot head, so
you can't approach that like he's not going to be
a hot head. Uh that's my opinion. But uh, there's
a lot of Tyreek defenders, the jacka sniffers out there.
They think that Tyrek did nothing, nothing untowards and it
(31:29):
was all uh, it was all the other side. Hot
head versus hothead never never ends up good. That does
not end up well. And Tyrek said, it's not like
he hasn't had any interaction with the police over the years,
like he should kind of note at this point, like
you know, you might want to, you know, just you
could exactly anyway, Right, we'll talk more about that. Thank you, Drey.
All right, there's a dre from Central California. Hey, Frank Gore,
(31:54):
super fan, well burning money, burning money here. That would
be Hassan Reddick. While you were likely watching the Monday
night game between the Jets and the forty nine Ers,
so son Reddick was being dinged almost eight hundred thousand dollars.
He is on the Jets. He's holding out. The Jets
traded for him from the Eagles. He wanted a new contract.
(32:15):
The Jets said, no, you're not getting a new contract,
and so every game that he misses, he's gonna lose
nearly eight hundred thousand dollars to make a stand to
show the man. The NFL trade deadline is not until
week nine. It's early November, so you can do the
math on this, and there's no guarantee the Jets end
(32:38):
up trading him. But Hassan Redick lost almost eight hundred
grand because he wanted to get a new contract, and
so he's giving up that money. He's forfeiting that money.
Time now for the who am I?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Game?
Speaker 1 (32:50):
And here it is. I was the league's worst quarterback
on throws of ten plus yards downfield in twenty twenty three.
In Week one, on thro of ten plus yards, I
was o for seven, the only quarterback in Week one
without a completion of ten plus air yards. Again, I
was the worst quarterback to throw ten plus yards downfield
(33:14):
last season, and in Week one I picked up where
I left off. I had no throws of ten plus yards.
I was zero for seven, the only quarterback in Week
one without a completion of ten plus air yards. Who
am I? That is the question. The answer. We'll get
to it and we will do it next.

Speaker 8 (34:07):
Time.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Now for the who am I Game? A blatant attempt
to get you to listen a little bit longer, we
called the who am I? Game? And here is the
question of the hour. I was the NFL's worst quarterback
on throws of ten plus yards downfield in twenty twenty three.
In Week one throws of ten plus yards ten plus yards,
(34:29):
I was zero for seven, the only quarterback in Week
one without a completion of ten plus air yards? Who
am I? That is the question? What is the answer?
Let's see it? Does anyone know the answer, We go
to the Hoy POLOI here and who do we have? O?
G Yard Puffins says El Puma Jose Luis Rodriguez. Who else?
(34:53):
Steeler quarterback Justine Fields from Milkman, Mike in Colorado, Mister
Rogers from The Cowboy Killer, The Million Dollar Man, Ted
de Biassi from Rob in Vegas. Who else do you have?
Ben Wallace, who is fifty today from the Late Night
Drug Tester, Arthur Reid from King Rory Polkai legend. Al
Bundy the greats of all time in high school football?
(35:16):
Al Bundy, that is from Baker. Who else do we
have page down? We'll skip over that. Tommy DeVito from
Eke in Roseville, Minnesota. Tommy Cutlets, it's his answer, Alf
the Alien of Pineter Dennis Green, who recently blew you
off for the interview on the Fifth Hour podcast because
(35:36):
he was too tired or deceased? Interesting? Who else do
we have? Page down? Milton Bradley from Shane in Des Moines.
Eloy from Compton says Broncos legend. Brady Quinn is the
correct answer. Who else? Cliff Stout from Rob in Minnesota.
Darth Vader rest in peace, James Earl Jones. He's dead
(36:00):
at ninety three, I forty eight, James Earl Jones, Darth
Vader and also Field of Dreams, A bunch of other
stuff too. Babe Laffenberg from Steve the Misplaced, San Diegan.
Robbie the Mariner Fan going with Russell Wilson as his answer.
Joel Burrow from John double Ow Mexican in San Diego
(36:22):
says it's got to be Bryce Young that that is
the answer. Who else do you have? A nice guy
stalking Groceries from Dad Gummet Aaron Rogers guessed by Terry
in England The Curse of the ben Bino from Robbie
the Mariner Fan. Who else do we have? Malik Willis
guessed by Chipping the Cues. Who Else Big Lou also
(36:43):
with James Earl Jones is his answer. Charlie checked Down
from Dad Boy Malcolm Tardi Boy, Eddie Garcia from Masshole Mickey,
that's his answer, Eddie, Do you have an answer? Kathy
in Madison did not get it right either. By the way,
she's not well.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
That's unfortunate. I do that. I'm gonna go with former
Jets legendary quarterback Ray Lucas Ray Lucas.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
I remember Ray Lucas. Yeah, he's all right. By Jets standards,
he was all right, But anyone else's standards, he was
not all right. But but the bar is pretty low, though,
when you're a Jets quarterback. The greatest quarterback the last
twenty years for the Jets is it Mark Sanchez? I
would say Chad Pennington was more productive than Mark Sanchez,
even though they got to the AFC. Was that beyond
(37:25):
twenty years? They got to the AFC Championship game with
Mark Sanchez.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Sanchez was last to string quarterback in twenty.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Twelve, I know, but not with the Jets, right with
the Jets?
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Really?
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Okay, so that's within the last twenty years, but Chad
Pennington was a more prolific, prolific passer anyway, Again the
who I'm my game question? I was the league's worst
quarterback and throws ten plus yards downfield in twenty twenty three.
In Week one on throws of ten plus yards, I
was zero for seven, the only quarterback in Week one
without a completion of ten plus air yards. The answer
(37:57):
Kyler Murray, Ale Danner, her arms Bury of the Cardinals.
He still blows in twenty twenty four ha
Here we go. Welcome, It's our number one of the
original Recipe podcast. We were up all night recording this podcast,
The Ben Mahlers Show. The last game a week one
was played and the j e Ts Suck, Suck, Suck,
lived up to their legacy the old slip and fall
(00:22):
accident in the Bay Area. What's the good, the bad,
and the ugly from a dominating performance by the forty
nine ers, But from the Jets side of things? For
Robert Salah, the good, the bad and the ugly? How
did Aaron Rodgers look for the Jets hadn't played football
in a long time? And what stood out to you
most in this game? From the forty nine Ers side
(00:44):
of things, a surgical takedown of the highly hyped Jets.
We'll talk about all that and much more right now.
We'll put the biscuit in the basket here in our
number one, yet another bumpy flight for the Jets. Well
come in the be gaining of another night of the
(01:07):
Ben Malors Show. We are in the air everywhere united
as we hang in Bennie's backyard, coast stuck coast, border
to border and beyond on the vast and stylishly powerful
microphones of fsre am monading live from the break. As
(01:31):
we break the huddle, we're broadcasting live from the Tirac
dot com studios. Tyract dot com will help you get

and over ten thousand recommended in starstiraq dot com. The
way tire buying should be. Steven Manhattan, I got a
(01:54):
message from from Terry in Inglany's Oh, Steve's not gonna call,
No Steve, you don't understand the minds of the Jet fan.
The Jet fan would rather the team be a pit
of misery than good. So I would push back on that.
This is a vintage night for the Jets franchise. Our lead,
don't bear the lead. Our lead from the Bay Area.
(02:17):
That's what everyone's talking about. That is where the final
chapter of Week one of the NFL storybook came to
an end. The Brock Purty and the Ragning runner ups
in the NFL, the forty nine Ers hosting Aired Rogers,
and the j E t s Suck Sucks, suck. Now
you had the old Fox refugees, Joe Back and Troy
(02:39):
Aikman who were calling the game, and don't if you
saw it or not. Maybe you did not watch it.
You might have direct TV and you were l screwed.
But don't worry. We watched it so you would not
have to and you didn't miss much. You did not
miss much. Someone named Jordan Mason, we don't even know
who that is, but he ran circles around the Jets
(03:01):
finished with one hundred and forty seven yards and touchdown.
And he was the backup because Christian McCaffery couldn't play.
The forty nine ers, sullying the Aaron Rodgers comeback story.
The highly publicized comeback up Aaron Rogers, a thirty two
(03:21):
to nineteen thumping, easily covering the points spread without their
top player, a win for the Niners over the Jets
on Monday Night. The better story is in the losing
locker room. So that is where we begin. Let us
discuss the question what is the good, the bad, and
the ugly from this performance for Robert Sallas Jets. So
(03:46):
I've got Medello, Low's and academia, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
make a pack up your bad and leave situation, which
is what the Jets did. They packed up their bag
they got the heck out of there right after he
(04:06):
came ended. Well, I guess the good news this nobody died.
As far as we know, no one died. There were
no death reported in the Jets traveling party. To my knowledge,
no players were seriously injured in the game for the Jets.
Now the bad that would be Aaron Rogers and the offense.
More on that coming up here in a bit.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
The ugly.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Was the defense. Now. I had been told by the
experts that the Jets they love this defense. They had
first round pick, second round picks all over this defense.
They love to pump their chest out and bragged very
braggadocious about the defense for the Jets. Gang Green played
(04:49):
like they had Gang Green in this game. That was
the junior varsity absolutely manhandled and the forty nine ers
off so on the defensive side against the Niners. Against
the Jets rather offensive line. The Niners defense bruised and
battered the New York offensive line on both sides, both sides.
(05:12):
An island game. Everyone's watching the island game, living the
island life. To give me an idea of how big
a man handle this was for the Jets defense, with
all those first and second round picks. The forty nine
Ers scored eight consecutive drives. Eight times they either got
a field goal or a touchdown. The big uglies, the
(05:36):
big uglies. The Jets were kicked, they were need they
were elbowed, they were poked in the eye from pillar
to post in this particular game. And they played gutless football.
And that is the worst thing you can say about
a team. Watching the approach to Jets have. This is
(05:57):
a referendum on the motivational speaker, the Tony Robbins of
the NFL, Robert Sala who pedigree is that of a
defensive guru, defensive coordinator for the forty nine ers, and
the Jets happen to be playing. And so this is
a measuring stick game. This is a measuring stick. We
know the Jets aren't as good as the forty nine ers,
(06:18):
but how far away are they? And we have the
answer now I can say, beyond a reasonable doubt, the
Jets at this point in the NFL season blow chunks.
They blow jeez. There's a line that I love. The
late Mike Leech had it, and I apply this to
(06:38):
all coaches. I honor the memory of Mike Leach my
favorite all time college football coach, Mike Leach, who preached
that you're either coaching it or you're allowing it to happen.
And I use that standard for Robert Salah and the Jets.
The Green team lacking that modello. They should have passed
out modello before the game. They did not have the
(06:59):
fighting spirit. I didn't realize they traveled by stagecoach from
New Jersey to California. Did they get the Spanish flu
somewhere in Colorado? I don't know. But they were absolutely emasculated.
They showed no real pushback at all. He even had
I love this sauce Gardener. Now, if you believe the
Jets take them at face value. All these teams lie.
(07:20):
But the Jets claimed that sauce Gardener, who didn't play
a lot in the second quarter, the Jets were saying
he wasn't heard. They said. They essentially said he was
out of breath, he was out of shape. Say what,
he's not fat, he's a little saucy, he's sauce Gardener.
(07:43):
And he missed a block in the second quarter. He
had to catch his breath. It's game one. These guys
don't even play in the exhibition games during training. What
are we doing? Wowser's all right now, page two. Let's
get now to the Komodo Dragon, the Komodo drag. There's
a fly buzzing around here. By the way, it just
(08:05):
landed on my face here. That's a wild anyway. So
let's get to a page two. How did Aaron Rodgers
look for the Jets? So this is a cover your
eyes situation. The Benny bright side in me says, well,
he looked choppy. He looked choppy. That's the bright side
(08:28):
part of it. Mix and match. A drop pass here,
a tip pass over there, frustration mounting. That was the
kind of performance you expect from a Jets quarterback. That
wasn't what people remember. Rogers was becoming bad as last
year in Green Bay. He was starting to show signs
of falling apart. But the overall body of work, I
(08:52):
think you'd agree with me on this that the body
of work was pretty good, right. And the question is
this was a bumpy flight, A lot of issues there,
a lot of turbulence for the flight here. The oxidation
can't be fixed, right. Was this simply corrosion from not
(09:13):
playing in a long time and going out and having
a lot of ayahuasca with Joe Rogan and things like that.
Because you can fix that. Oxidation can be fixed. You
go down to Low's or Home Depot, whatever your vivid
hardware store is, and you buy an industrial sized container
of WD forty. The issue is there is a dimension
(09:37):
where this is not just Russ. This is Aaron Rodgers
being an old fogie that he's passed his expiration date,
and that that's the case. You're cooked, You are absolutely cooked.
The jets will non fly out. Rogers did have the
body language of a guy that was starting to realize
(09:57):
in the late second quarter that this is not northern Wisconsin.
This is a little different. There might be one green,
green and white, but there's something else going on. Now
the last word here. We now pivot to the winning
locker room, not the better story, but the winning locker room.
And we asked the question what stood out to you
(10:19):
the most from the forty nine ers on their side
of the ledger. So I will address this to the
esteem panel here, and the first thought I have is academia.
It's like comparing different levels of education. You've got the
forty nine ers who are a master student, and then
You've got the Jets who are doing finger painting. They're
(10:41):
in kindergarten. They're just trying to make sure they can
hold their urine to go to the bathroom. That's the Jets,
right and now, I'm not going to sit here and
say that I thought this was going to be the
way it played out. I did not. If you saw
Benny Versus the Penny on television this past weekend, I
was optimistic that they would be able to hang around here,
(11:02):
and I didn't see this type of domination coming. I
guess I should have, but all the drama was hovering
around the forty nine ers. You had holdouts in training camp,
lack of practice reps for the key players who were out.
You mix in. I didn't know this at the time
we did the TV show, but you got Christian McCaffrey
who missed the game. You had all the ingredients for
(11:23):
the forty nine ers to come out and have an
absolute clunker. It's early in the season these first couple
of weeks, so like glorified what used to be exhibition games.
But they don't play those anymore. The players don't. The
star players got forbid. They play in these exhibition games.
So he had everything you needed in the recipe for
this game to be competitive. And yet even early on
(11:46):
I was still I was somewhat optimistic. Girl. Now Brandon
IOC missed a opportunity to score a touchdown, he dropped
a touchdown. I guess they got to pay more money
to catch that pass. So you had that. Yet brock Purty,
who came out and was wobbly, was wobbly in the
first quarter of the game. And then all of a sudden,
this goose shows up that laid the golden egg, someone
named Jordan Mason. We still don't really know who this
(12:07):
guy was. And he steps in and is the ultimate
plug and play running back. This has been the argument
against paying a running back, and the Niners paid a
running back more than anybody in Christian McCaffrey. And yet
you put a guy like this, And how much of
that was Jordan Mason, how much of that was the scheme,
and how much of that was the Jets stink, Well
we'll never know. But Jordan Mason thirty three uneventful games
(12:32):
undrafted out of the rambling wreck of Georgia Tech, and
he went from roster spam to a starring role and
one hundred and forty seven yards, pivoting, moving around what
you want. I mean, he was able to run around
through Jet defenders. He absolutely torched the Jets. You got
(12:56):
burned by Jordan Mason. That's who beat you, that guy
right there. And the lack of ability on the offensive
and defensive. I think the Jets need to suck another
twenty years and draft more linemen. And yeah, that's the ticket.
It is the Ben Mallord Show. If you'd like to
be part, we open up the lines, we release the lines,
(13:17):
and you can join us right now if you would
like to be part, and every line open there if
you're so inclined to speakeasy rules are in effect also
on X at Ben Mahlor, that is at Ben Malor.
We do go through a lot of commentary from you,
So send those questions in or comments or whatever and
we'll run through a bunch of them. So I rather
(13:40):
benign Monday night game. In terms of competition, there was
no competition after the first quarter. Once the Niners turned
on the old engine there in the second quarter, that
was it turn out the last the parties over. But
is it true that coach Kyle Shanahan could be in
a whole lot of trouble by something that happened on
(14:03):
Monday night, and that the forty nine ers are looking
at an NFL investigation because there's something that took place
on Monday night. We'll get to the bottom of that,
and we will do it next.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
Oh, bad news, Eddie. You're gonna have to go to
the principal's office. You were tardy and you're gonna have
to run some laps after the show. I hope you're
okay with that, but you were Truanton. Then it's part
of the job here when you're not here on time,
got to run some laps. So well, Steve said he
wanted to do an extra update reps. He was throwing
things in there. He was furious. You know what, was
(15:52):
very annoyed.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
If you want to do an extra update, that's okay.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
No, no, no, no. He had places to go. He was
all dressed up, he ready to go out a night
on the town with his wife, and you deprived him.
How dare you? How dare you did you fall asleep
during the Monday night game. Is that what happened? You
fell asleep watching the Jets? Is that what happened? To
say yes, say yes, that's a better story. Say yes, yes, Okay,
(16:16):
thank you. I don't need to know the reels. I'm
sure whatever the real story is is not that interesting.
It is not. But the fact that you fell asleep
watching the Jets almost like the Jets offensive line fell
asleep and defensive line fell asleep in that game, Now
that is magical. You feme in Chicago, writes, and he
(16:36):
says a plus and a New York bago on the
Maland monologue, Robert Sadler should consider martyring himself in the
name of New York, he says. Shannon des Moines wants
more al fun facts, more al fun facts, more al
fun facts. I'm sure Alf will send a bunch. In
Late Night, drug tester says, I heard Christian McCaffrey was
out and was worried about the over bet. Wasn't sure
(16:59):
the Jets were going to score enough to make it pay.
Rest easy, Rest easy. I had some garbage time points there.
Outstanding at absolutely outstanding. Rob the ambassador of Bakersfield right,
since is at this point in the season, are weasel
words been? You can do better than that other than that,
(17:21):
pretty much correct, Rogers. We have some postgame audio we
didn't play. I think we should play some of this
right now. We have Robert Sala, Robert Sala, who's in
over his head, doesn't seem to know what he's doing.
He's being paid to coach the Jets, but doesn't seem
to be doing very good at that. Here's Robert Sala
and he's claiming that Aaron Rodgers never had an opportunity
(17:43):
to get things started.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
We never really gave him a chance to get into rhythm.
You know. Defensively, they just you know, credit to the
San Francisco. They did a great job run the ball.
They're very effishent in the past game, even in the
second half when we feel like we made some adjustments
in the wrong game and they still were minus one
explosive thought we did good in the rung game, but
you know, they're really good in the past game too.
You know, they're an elite football team, and I know
(18:07):
they're a missing Christian, but they still have Deebo and
ayuk and and Jennings and a really good old line
and a really good quarterback. So you know, credit to them.
They executed a heck a lot better than we didn't.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
We gotta be better.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
So I have my malor Rosetta stone. And what he
just said was a bunch of gobblygook. It was that
they're good and we blow. That's what he said. He
just used a lot of words. It was a word salad.
Here's Aaron Rodgers aired Rogers. He's going to get very
proficient at explaining losses. He didn't lose that many games
(18:39):
in the regular season Rogers with the Packers. But oh yeah,
and now he's a jet. Here's Rogers on his latest explanation.
Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (18:49):
Yeah, you know, we were just bad on first and
second down. I think for a lot of the game.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
That's it.
Speaker 6 (18:54):
Then you know, we had a couple of guys we
converted third downs, but overall, you know, we we we
feel like we didn't have any third and ten pluses tonight,
so that's always a good.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Thing, that's a positive.
Speaker 6 (19:03):
But yeah, we didn't convert those third mediums. You know,
we had a drop, we had a couple penalties and
a bad throw, so not the correct but overall, I
feel you know, I feel good about our guys. Thought
the protection was really good tonight. We just had a
little bit off in the in the run game, couldn't
give Bristc co on and couldn't give them enough space.
(19:23):
But a lot to build on.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Yeah, so the Jets, the game was over going to
the fourth quarter. The Jets after three quarters had eight
first downs in the game, eight and then there was
garbage time in the fourth and they got like six
first downs in the fourth quarter. But the game was
over going to the fourth quarter. I mean, we can
break it down every way you want slice it off,
(19:46):
but terrible, terrible trip. But now there is some controversy,
and that's that's red meat right in my my wheelhouse here,
that's in the lions Den or the Mallers. Then here
some controversy following the game. Is it true that coach
Kyle Shanahan is in trouble with the NFL? Will the
NFL be investigating the forty nine ers after their win
(20:08):
on Monday night? It appears that the forty nine ers
had been lying about the status of Christian McCaffrey, and
that they knew last week that McCaffrey was not going
to play in the game Monday night. Now you might say,
who cares about that? Well, fantasy football and gambling cares
about that, and those are two big businesses the NFL
(20:30):
is involved in directly, and it's all about transperity and
all that. And I'm trying to be honest and whatnot. Anyway,
I bring this up because Jordan Mason. I'm gonna play
a clip here in a second. But Jordan Mason after
the game on the Monday night broadcast was asked when
he found out he was going to play. Now, that
was a leading question by the sideline reporter. I don't
(20:53):
know who she is, but whoever asked the question, it
was a leading question because she expected him to say, well,
I found out half an hour I was. I was
dropping a deuce in the bathroom and Shanahan came in
there and told me I was gonna play like one
of those deals. But that's not what he said. He
said he was told on Friday night that he was
gonna play on Monday. But they made this big announcement
(21:14):
like an hour before the game that the Niners we're
gonna be without McCaffrey. Oh my god. But they knew
on Friday, according to the guy, according to the running
back Jordan Mason. So then Shanahan gets up at the
podium and he has to deny it because he knows
he's violated the NFL's rule book and they're gonna get
(21:34):
in trouble. He's gonna get in trouble and all that.
So then Jordan Mason got up to the podium and
listen to how bummed out Jordan Mason was after he
just had the game of his life for the Niners.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
When did you find out that you'd be at the
starting lineup?
Speaker 7 (21:52):
That question, right there is is why I'm at That's
why I don't like really talking to media because one
thing wrong and then you know, I don't know, just
give that question.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's not say one thing wrong, it's say the truth.
You're not allowed to speak the truth the NFL. This
is why we always talk about we play audio from
coaches and players. Right, And I remember, I'll never get
late Dennis Green, May he rest in peace. Dennis Green
worked here briefly, right, and he would always talk about
how I tell a version of the truth, but not
(22:33):
the whole truth. Right, And it's like that you have
to tell these white lies. Right, It's pretty obvious based
on a minutes long Mallord investigation that Jordan Mason of
the forty nine ers initially told the truth, the inconvenient truth,
and that became a nuisance for Shanahan and the Niners.
(22:54):
And then they said, hey, wait a minute, dummy. They
gave him some venom and playing again to playing I
want to hit it again. This guy just had a
game of his life and he's asked the basic question.
And listen to how Sad Jordan Mason sounded from the
forty nine ers.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
When did you find out that you'd be in the
starting lineup?
Speaker 7 (23:14):
That question, right there is is where I'm at. Oh
that's why I don't like really talking to media, because
you say one thing wrong and then you know, I
don't know, just get that question.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Oh it's so good, it's so God just.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Had the game of his life, I know. And when
he came to the locker room, somebody chewed him out,
yelled at him.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
And sad Jordan Mason and this crime ed he was
being honest. His crime was saying what actually happened That
somebody called him up on Friday night and said, hey,
mcaffrey's not gonna be playing on Monday. You're in. But
they didn't want to announce it. They didn't want to
give the Jets some kind of advantage or whatever. And
you know all these mind games you gotta play, and
(24:03):
so what will come of this, Well, the Niners will
likely be called into the principal's office and they'll be
censured and they'll be fined, and that'll be that. And
it's not like this doesn't go on all the time.
It does go on all the time. We know it
goes on all the time. But it's just hilarious when
we get to peak how they make the hot dogs
and there's like one guy that's kind of doesn't get
it and doesn't know how to play the game and
(24:24):
give up the smoke screen and all that, and the
camouflage is away, and a guy who seemed like a
sweet man, a Jordan Mason, but he just couldn't use
the diversionary tactics that all these other losers use. I say,
suspend Shanahan's spend them. I think we should forfeit the
win for the Jets. Is that right? Come on? What
do you think? Yeah? No, take the win off the board,
(24:45):
give it to the Jets. Yeah, Cody and I don't
win the game because they had Shenanigans. That'll teach them.
That'll teach them right there.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Anyway.

Speaking of Blue losing, I know this is Mark's favorite segment.
Did the White Sox lose? Did they lose?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Put it on the bay?
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Certainly did?
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Good Funday Boys Guardians.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Five to the final. It's one hundred and twelve losses.
They are eight away from tying nine away from breaking
the Mets all time record for losses in a season
with seventeen games left to go. I don't see how
they don't do it.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
You can do it, you can do it. We got
a fun fact, Daddy, fun fact, fun fact, fun fact.
The Buffalo Bills, who beat the Cardinals on sun. This
is a way to suck up to Bill's mafia. So
the Bills now hold the NFL record for most consecutive
regular season games without losing by more than six points.
(25:44):
Then you might say that doesn't really matter that much.
But if you're a gambler and you're playing those extreme
parlays or extreme teasers. I should say we get like
ten points by pretty much putting the Bills in every week.
You're you have been. Now, this is what has happened.
Doesn't get It's just going to continue to happen. But
the Bills have not lost by more than six points.
(26:06):
It has been forty two straight regular season games for
the Buffalo Bills, which means they're due on Thursday to
lose by about fifty points to the Dolphins. But at
this point the streak has continued there for the Buffalo Bills.
And that is the fun fact, putting the fun in
fun fact, as we like to do. This show is
sponsored by DraftKings. Stay tuned because you'll hear more about
(26:28):
DraftKings and all it has to offer throughout the show. DraftKings.
The Crown is yours. Ferd Dog says, according to Eddie,
he's been moonlighting as a mechanic, which is why he's
been tardy lately. Sure as hell wouldn't trust him with
my car? Is that true? Eddie? Are you working as
a mechanic now? Garcia's Auto Repair?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
I just own this place, you own it?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
That's such as many? Yeah, just the boss there, Yeah,
there you go. Supermarkets. Steve says, I'm not sure if
Lorraina is in the night, but can we get that
sigh as a drop, just the sigh whenever Ben is
saying something, I want to hear that sigh. Well, supermarket, Steve,
(27:13):
you can say all you no, she's not here, so
go pound sand with a rob mallet. Why don't you
go try to go go in the ocean and try
to get all the water out of the ocean. Ferk
Duck says, a fly in the studio is a much
bigger story than whatever WNBA score. Eddie was reeling off.
How dare he talk back to you like that? I agree, Fergie.
(27:33):
And the guy shows up late, he's got sassy talk. Well,
I mean, what's going on with that's that's insane. Let's
go to Dre who is in central California, but he
is bleeding forty nine or red. Well many people bleeding red,
but he's a forty nine er fan.
Speaker 8 (27:49):
Hello Dre, Hey Ben, I caught your Benny and the
penny this week in and at Good Show, Good Show.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Oh well, thank you to stop right there. There's no
need to put a butt on there. There's no need
to add on to that. There's a perfect comment. It
was a good show.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
I noticed you went against the Niners, you went with
the Jets, but you know, hey, nobody need to commit
them all right. Well, and then again you said the
Rams are gonna ram it on down.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Well, let's keep in mind here that the object of
the game dray On Benny versus the Penny, which is
seen nationally on Peacock and around the country on regional
cable television on NBC. The whole point of the show
is to beat the penny. That I have to pick
more games right than the penny. So did I win
or did I lose? We'll have to find out next week,
same time, same penny station.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
I believe you won, sir, I believe.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
I don't know. I don't know. The producers have to
fact check everything, so I'll find out. But anyway, what's
on your mind?
Speaker 8 (28:50):
Oh? I got a couple a couple of questions for you. First,
Frank Gore was putting the forty nine Ers Hall of
Fame the day at halftime. He is the third lead
and his rusher at all time, and I know many
many sportscasters say he definitely in a first time Hall
of Fame ballot because they are saying he just played
(29:11):
too many years, ended up with sixteen thousand yards on
the dot. My thing is, if Harball would have gave
him the ball and the Super Bowl against the Ravens,
let him run it in, keep going for sure of
the first one.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
So you're doing what you're doing would have, could have should?
It is what you're doing. Yes, you're doing what he
could have. Shoot, you're admitting that. You're admitting you know,
you're doing what it could have should. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
you know. Frank Gore is like Tommy John. Tommy John
played a long time. I think Tommy should be in
the Hall of Fame the baseball evame. But he played
such a long time. It's like he accumulated a lot
(29:45):
of stats. And Frank Gore played until he was thirty seven,
to give you an idea, how long you played. When
he started as a rookie and in the twenty I
remember we had him on. I was doing a show
after the draft. He was a third round of the
forty nine ers and five. We had him on almost
twenty years ago. He had him on. He was coming
off that injury from his college days. But I don't
(30:09):
I don't think of him as a Hall of Famer.
I know, I don't think of him as a dominating force.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
He was.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
I understand, Yeah, I understand.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
I think like yeah, I think like Corey Dillon. Corey
Dillon was a good player. He didn't play as long,
but had similar impact for a few years. I didn't
think Overall or Shady McCoy or something like that. There
have been a bunch of backs like.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
That so well, the Niners long history. He is their
all time leading rusher. In his defense, but hey, can
I mention one thing about Tyreek Hill? Did you see
the film and the way he was acting when he
got over?
Speaker 1 (30:46):
I did, yes, Yes, I also saw he's doing. He
did a media circu he was on CNN, NBC. He
was making the rounds there, Tyreek, he was milking that
big time.
Speaker 8 (30:54):
Oh I'll tell you what I know, me or you
or Eddie or Coop have been talking to the po
pool like that. Our bus would have been in jail
and roll down the window.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
And yeah, what actually happened and what he said happened,
we're not exactly the same there. So now that the
cop was a hothead, But you got to go into
that thinking the cop might be a hot head, so
you can't approach that like he's not going to be
a hot head. Uh that's my opinion. But uh, there's
a lot of Tyreek defenders, the jacka sniffers out there.
They think that Tyrek did nothing, nothing untowards and it
(31:29):
was all uh, it was all the other side. Hot
head versus hothead never never ends up good. That does
not end up well. And Tyrek said, it's not like
he hasn't had any interaction with the police over the years,
like he should kind of note at this point, like
you know, you might want to, you know, just you
could exactly anyway, Right, we'll talk more about that. Thank you, Drey.
All right, there's a dre from Central California. Hey, Frank Gore,
(31:54):
super fan, well burning money, burning money here. That would
be Hassan Reddick. While you were likely watching the Monday
night game between the Jets and the forty nine Ers,
so son Reddick was being dinged almost eight hundred thousand dollars.
He is on the Jets. He's holding out. The Jets
traded for him from the Eagles. He wanted a new contract.
(32:15):
The Jets said, no, you're not getting a new contract,
and so every game that he misses, he's gonna lose
nearly eight hundred thousand dollars to make a stand to
show the man. The NFL trade deadline is not until
week nine. It's early November, so you can do the
math on this, and there's no guarantee the Jets end
(32:38):
up trading him. But Hassan Redick lost almost eight hundred
grand because he wanted to get a new contract, and
so he's giving up that money. He's forfeiting that money.
Time now for the who am I?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Game?
Speaker 1 (32:50):
And here it is. I was the league's worst quarterback
on throws of ten plus yards downfield in twenty twenty three.
In Week one, on thro of ten plus yards, I
was o for seven, the only quarterback in Week one
without a completion of ten plus air yards. Again, I
was the worst quarterback to throw ten plus yards downfield
(33:14):
last season, and in Week one I picked up where
I left off. I had no throws of ten plus yards.
I was zero for seven, the only quarterback in Week
one without a completion of ten plus air yards. Who
am I? That is the question. The answer. We'll get
to it and we will do it next.

Speaker 8 (34:07):
Time.
Speaker 1 (34:07):
Now for the who am I Game? A blatant attempt
to get you to listen a little bit longer, we
called the who am I? Game? And here is the
question of the hour. I was the NFL's worst quarterback
on throws of ten plus yards downfield in twenty twenty three.
In Week one throws of ten plus yards ten plus yards,
(34:29):
I was zero for seven, the only quarterback in Week
one without a completion of ten plus air yards? Who
am I? That is the question? What is the answer?
Let's see it? Does anyone know the answer, We go
to the Hoy POLOI here and who do we have? O?
G Yard Puffins says El Puma Jose Luis Rodriguez. Who else?
(34:53):
Steeler quarterback Justine Fields from Milkman, Mike in Colorado, Mister
Rogers from The Cowboy Killer, The Million Dollar Man, Ted
de Biassi from Rob in Vegas. Who else do you have?
Ben Wallace, who is fifty today from the Late Night
Drug Tester, Arthur Reid from King Rory Polkai legend. Al
Bundy the greats of all time in high school football?
(35:16):
Al Bundy, that is from Baker. Who else do we
have page down? We'll skip over that. Tommy DeVito from
Eke in Roseville, Minnesota. Tommy Cutlets, it's his answer, Alf
the Alien of Pineter Dennis Green, who recently blew you
off for the interview on the Fifth Hour podcast because
(35:36):
he was too tired or deceased? Interesting? Who else do
we have? Page down? Milton Bradley from Shane in Des Moines.
Eloy from Compton says Broncos legend. Brady Quinn is the
correct answer. Who else? Cliff Stout from Rob in Minnesota.
Darth Vader rest in peace, James Earl Jones. He's dead
(36:00):
at ninety three, I forty eight, James Earl Jones, Darth
Vader and also Field of Dreams, A bunch of other
stuff too. Babe Laffenberg from Steve the Misplaced, San Diegan.
Robbie the Mariner Fan going with Russell Wilson as his answer.
Joel Burrow from John double Ow Mexican in San Diego
(36:22):
says it's got to be Bryce Young that that is
the answer. Who else do you have? A nice guy
stalking Groceries from Dad Gummet Aaron Rogers guessed by Terry
in England The Curse of the ben Bino from Robbie
the Mariner Fan. Who else do we have? Malik Willis
guessed by Chipping the Cues. Who Else Big Lou also
(36:43):
with James Earl Jones is his answer. Charlie checked Down
from Dad Boy Malcolm Tardi Boy, Eddie Garcia from Masshole Mickey,
that's his answer, Eddie, Do you have an answer? Kathy
in Madison did not get it right either. By the way,
she's not well.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
That's unfortunate. I do that. I'm gonna go with former
Jets legendary quarterback Ray Lucas Ray Lucas.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
I remember Ray Lucas. Yeah, he's all right. By Jets standards,
he was all right, But anyone else's standards, he was
not all right. But but the bar is pretty low, though,
when you're a Jets quarterback. The greatest quarterback the last
twenty years for the Jets is it Mark Sanchez? I
would say Chad Pennington was more productive than Mark Sanchez,
even though they got to the AFC. Was that beyond
(37:25):
twenty years? They got to the AFC Championship game with
Mark Sanchez.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Sanchez was last to string quarterback in twenty.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Twelve, I know, but not with the Jets, right with
the Jets?
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Really?
Speaker 1 (37:35):
Okay, so that's within the last twenty years, but Chad
Pennington was a more prolific, prolific passer anyway, Again the
who I'm my game question? I was the league's worst
quarterback and throws ten plus yards downfield in twenty twenty three.
In Week one on throws of ten plus yards, I
was zero for seven, the only quarterback in Week one
without a completion of ten plus air yards. The answer
(37:57):
Kyler Murray, Ale Danner, her arms Bury of the Cardinals.
He still blows in twenty twenty four ha
