so our lead this hour from Western New York. And
(03:14):
if you thought the Grim Reaper, Grim Reaper of Coaches
was done, that the Grim Reaper had gone back, you know,
you know, like Santa Claus works one day a year
and then and then that's it, just on Christmas. Well,
the Grim Reaper of football coaches they work a few
days a year, normally.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
January. That's pretty much it. That's you're done.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And yet here we are past the midway point of January,
and ta da. If you thought the Grim Reaper was done,
you're wrong. You're wrong.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
You're wrong. You're wrong.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Another one bites the dust, and another one, and another one,
and another.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
One and another one.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
If you did not hear perhaps not Coach Sean McDermott
has been pull axed, fired by the team owner Terry Pagoula.
After a nine year run in Western New York, the
Bills have said bye bye to their head coach. The
(04:10):
Buffalo football team a perennial contender, however, they found new
and creative ways to choke in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
There.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
They did not reach a super Bowl under Sean McDermott.
Despite having teams that were at times favored to get
to the Super Bowl, they found ways to screw it
up so that the move came two days two days
after the game in Denver where the Buffalo Bills did
the thing you can't do at the time, you can't
(04:38):
do it there a couple of times ended up losing,
so a number of players are beside themselves. They are
bewildered thunderstruck because of the move to get rid of
Sean McDermott. Fans also outraged over this decision by the
ownership there in Buffalo. That is a good jumping off
points to let us discuss the question for the steam panel.
(05:03):
Did coach Sean McDermott. Did coach Sean McDermott get a
raw deal in Buffalo?
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Did he get a raw deal.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So I've got flippers, hamburger helper, and clover leaf intersection,
and we will combine all of these things together, and
we were going to make some chicken alfredo is what
we're going to make. So, first of all, to answer
the question, was this a raw deal for Sean McDermott,
(05:32):
The answer is no.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
No, with an explanation point. In fact, he was given
a sweetheart deal. In most places, McDermott would have been
fired three years ago. He got three extra years to
prove he shouldn't have been coaching the last three years
Sean McDermott. And so no, the opposite of that, this
(05:58):
was a move that should have been made a while ago,
so it had to be made now.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
It was inevitable.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Now that being said, I didn't think they would have
the balls to do it in Buffalo, so I'm surprised
that they did. And we did a Mallard monologue in
a previous episode of the show saying that, yeah, you
should get rid of this guy. Of course you should
get rid of Sean McDermot. The twenty twenty five season,
it turned out, was indeed the last dance that was it,
(06:22):
and the folding tables snapped in half, and Bill's Mafia
jumped on it and the table snapped in half, and
that's it. You can only jump through so many flaming tables, okay,
and before you realize that you're stuck on like level thirteen,
but you want to get to level fifteen, but you're
stuck on level thirteen. Well, how do I get to
level fifteen? Now we are skeptical. We are skeptical that
(06:47):
the Bills know what they're doing right, considering that they
gave this guy three extra years, three extra years Sean
McDermott got And the reason that we didn't think this
was going to happen is because foc fear of change,
fear of change, fear of the unknown. And the Bills
were comfortable. They'd been bad for twenty years and so
(07:07):
they were comfortable. The ten plus wins, playoffs, snow Globe
games on National TV, Chicken Wings in the air, everywhere,
Bill's Mafia breaking furniture like it's a home improvement show
gone bad. All of that stuff that's not Bills. That's
the essence of the Buffalo Bills and Sean McDermott coaching
(07:29):
this team had built up a nice ranch house, a
nice ranch home Sean.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
McDermott had built up and it was working.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
They were winning some games and all that stuff, and
it was wonderful and they were all excited and was
great and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. However,
what ended up happening every January. Every January, the ending
was the same. It was four of the past five
four of the past five years. How is this thing
(08:00):
for the Buffalo Bills. Well, they've ended it in heartbreak fashion.
And so when you keep crashing out, when you get
to that level thirteen, you can't get past it. You
don't yell at the controller, you change the strategy. It's McDermott.
They gave him another chance, and another one and another one,
and it didn't work out. So they could ban his
head against the wall and all that stuff. They couldn't
(08:21):
find the right cheat code, couldn't figure out warp zone.
There was no warp zone for the Buffalo Bills. Here,
just more frostbite and oh my god, we suck again.
And at some point you stop mashing those buttons on
the remote control and you go to YouTube or the
dark web, and you say, Okay, we got to figure
something else out. And so that's what they're going to
(08:44):
do it.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
The bills job Prime rib. The Bill's job is prime Rib.
You've got the lunatic fan base, check small town insanity,
you check that box. You've got Josh Allen, who's got
two more years of athletic prime, So two more year
of Josh Allen before the slow decline. So you've got that.
(09:04):
So that's all good stuff, right. So you get those
things and you're looking around, you're like, okay, so you've
got this kind of set up and where is this headed.
So you've got the job that's team that's contender, just
already a contender.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
We know that.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
And so you go in there. Whoever gets the Buffalo
Bill's job. We'll talk about this more as we go
through this hour here, but whoever gets that job, you're
not rebuilding, right, and you should never be reballying.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
You're installing.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Essentially, a booster seat is what you're doing. You get
a booster seat in there and you floor it, pedal
to the metal, and you just go for it here.
And we have seen that this can work. It doesn't
work all the time. It has worked. The most famous example,
Tony Dungeee built the Tampa Bay Buccaneers into a really
good team years ago in Tampa.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
And then couldn't get it done. And then they brought in.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
John Gruden, who cashed the check that was set up
by Tony Dungee. So it's like HGTV the Pigskin House
Flippers addition, and so you go in there and McDermott
he turned he did do some flipping. He turned the house,
the outhouse into not quite a penthouse, but it's like
(10:24):
a level below the penthouse. So he did that and
he ran out of money, or in this case, he
ran out of time.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Time is money, So he ran out of time McDermott.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
And so someone else will go in there, and if
the Bills don't screw this up, they will be the
ones to hang up the Lombardi trophy on the shelf.
They'll put that up in the house that McDermott built.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Now.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Secondly, so now Buffalo is back on the market, they
need to hire a new coach. We know that they
need a new sideline jockey. So the question with the
Bills out shopping for someone to guide them on the sidelines.
Here for the first time in almost a decade, the
Bills are in the market for a head coach. Who
(11:06):
do you recommend? You are now the headhunter, you are
now the advisor. Who do you recommend for the Buffalo job?
So this one is a no brainer. It's not that
difficult here if the Bills are serious and if they
really want to go for it here, and that's a
big if with the Buffalo Bills, it's a big if.
(11:27):
But if that's the case, you do whatever you have
to do, including handing over the keys to Niagara Falls,
to get Mike Tomlin.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Hold my god, what are you're talking about? Tomvin didn't
win it Pittsburgh. He's been bad for ten years. Shut up.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
You lose there.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
That makes fine, all right.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
The argument against Tomlin is he didn't get it done
for a while in Pittsburgh, and all that I say
for gaze absolutely forgezy. The problem Tomlin had he had
substandard rosters, inferior quarterbacks and was able to make the
playoffs most of the time in Pittsburgh. If you give
Mike Tomlin a legitimate thorough bred quarterback and that team
(12:12):
is going to punch their ticket to the Promised Land. There,
it'll be like muscle memory. For Mike tom I'm telling
you it's gonna be like muscle memory. The standard is
the standard that fits that bull crap fits in Western
New York like thermal underwear in January.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Just fits, you need it.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
And so that job the Buffalo Bill's job. Now I
recommend Mike Tomlin. That's my unsolicited overnight device. But the
Buffalo Bill's job is a Hamburger helper job.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It is.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
It's in terms of coaching, ready made contender right now,
playoff team, consistently, big time quarterback. This is a just
add water situation. You are great, are You're not in
your head? Yes, it's a just add water situation. Dinner
is served, You've got the protein. Josh Allen and you'd
like to see him stop burning down the kitchen with
(13:02):
turnovers like he did against the Broncos and all that.
But the early cha chatter is not The early chatter
is not Mike Tomlin. The early chatter is that the
team from Buffalo is going to look to pacify Josh
Allen and hire Brian Dayball. He's the early favorite, not
Mike Tomlin, the human boomerang. Brian day Ball there who
(13:26):
failed spectacularly with the Giants. But hey, for he's a
jolly goodfellow, which nobody can and why not.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Buy him a beer?
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Buy everyone beers past the mashed potatoes, Grandma way to
go the old boys Club. That's the logic, right, there's
always the way you go. Default position. It's not what
you know. And this is not just football, this is
just life in general. It's not what you know, it's
who you know, and so not exactly great leadership, it's not.
(13:59):
It's more like I'm on LinkedIn, let me see what
they can find, or I'm on Express pros or whatever.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Now.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Either way, outside of replacing and the read which that
job is not open at this point in Kansas City,
no word that that job will be open. So we're
going to assume the position that that is not happy,
that that job will not open up. So outside of
that job, the Andy Reid chiefs job, this is the job.
(14:28):
This is the job. Don't overthink it. I would advise
to not hire a friend. Don't hire a friend. You're
not running a bake sale here in Buffalo, you're not.
I just go ahead and hire Thomas. Everyone says Tomlin's
not going to coach. He wants to take a year
off unless there's something that we don't know about that
hasn't been disclosed, Tomlin will be coaching again. So if
(14:50):
Tomlin's planning on going back to coaching, by the time
you get back, this job is not gonna be open.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
So like, come on, what are you doing? Just do
what it takes.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Everyone's got a price higher tom All right now, final
thought as for the guy. As for the guy who
just got dumped, we know how this works in the
NFL too, with the recycling.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
The NFL ahead of their time when it comes to recycling.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So the question where does former Bills coach Sean McDermott
end up. Where does McDermott end up, Well, McDermott is
not unemployed.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
When I think.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Unemployed, I think, well, I don't have any money coming.
He's still getting paid by the Bills. He had time
left on his contract. He wasn't a lame duck coach
from what I understand. So I think of this in
the context that Sean McDermott is at the intersection, the
blinker is on, the blinker is on the station wagon
is idling the McDermott station wagon.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
The kids are in the back asking Dad, where are
we there yet? Where we going? Dad? Where we go?
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Okay, calm down, shut up, kids, all right? So he
dropped a token, He dropped a toe. Get into the
NFL arcade and boom the coaching mary go round fired up,
round and round and round, the big wooden horse, brass pole,
up and down, the same song every coaching cycle, every
coaching cycle, the same song. And mcdermot's resume it says
(16:17):
one thing. It doesn't say I'm gonna win you a championship.
It says I will make you respectable where the capital
r right. And if you look at these terrible franchises
like the Raiders and the Browns and the Cardinals, these
teams and there are others that have jobs open. Although
it appears the Tennessee Titans have decided on another terrible coach,
Robert Salah. What you wonder why certain teams always end
(16:39):
up in the same spot, Well, there you go. Anyway,
he would put you in the respectable category. And so
that's not a bad thing. And one man's trash there
is another man's treasure. It's always the way this is
in the NFL here And so it's the other thing
about mcdermoid is he's not He's he's not a TV guy.
(17:02):
He's got a really boring personality. He doesn't have much
of anything to offer other than coaching football. He's meeting potatoes.
There's no garnish there, there's no razzle dazzle. He's not
gonna go off and do a Barstool Bros. Podcast and
play grab ass with the bros at Barstool.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
He's not doing that. That's not how he's wired.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Okay, He's not gonna go eat chicken wings and drink
beer and do that while doing some fugazi podcast.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
That's not so.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
He's just one of these guys that rolls up his
sleeves and you got a sink that's leaking, he'll fix that.
He'll you get the thing over there that's not quite
working right on the on the door, He'll fix that
as well. And so the option do you take a
gap year? Some people say, ooh, you take a gap
year and then you go back to the market and
all that stuff, and that would be a big mistake.
(17:50):
A sabbatical by Sean McDermott. That's what the rich guys
that can do TV do. He's not that guy, as
we've said he's not that type of code. He's not,
and so you don't do the sabbatical. So he currently
Sean mcdermamation. She's at the intersection. This is a clover
leaf intersection. He's at the clover leaf intersection, Sean McDermott.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
So if you.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Turn left, turn left. If you turn left, you take
a year off and battery recharge. That's not what you
should do. You should not turn left. If you go straight,
you grab one of these flee infested jobs, like the Raiders,
the Cardinals or the Browns, and you go there. That's
like the roach motel. You go to one of those teams. Now,
(18:33):
the other option at the clover leaf intersection is to
turn ride, turn ride. You head to Jerry's World, where Cowboys'
defensive coordinator. That job opened up right now. Nose hasn't
hired anyone unless they hired someone the last hour, so
that job is open. So the defensive coordinator job is
(18:54):
open for the Dallas Cowboys. You go there. If you're
Sean McDermott, that would be the fallback. It's not a
full sabbatical because you're still coaching. But you go to
the Cowboys Jerry turns on the circus music, the spotlight.
Jerry's barking like a carnival barker there. He's got the
clown makeup on the whole thing. He's a carnival huckster,
and he tries to hype up your value and all
that stuff. And you do that for a year. You
(19:14):
go to the cowboys for a year, and suddenly mcdermot's
back in the front of the line and he can
get one of these top jobs that will pop open
every year, seven to ten jobs open up. And of
course the great thing about the coaching carousel, as you know,
the ride does not stop. It does not. You just
got to pick the right horse. That's the problem. You
got to pick the right horse. It is the Ben

(23:14):
They're almost guaranteed to finally win it all.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Well, Marv Levy worked here at Fox Sports Radio. When
I first started, Marv was one of our weekend football commentators.
And I sat next to Marv a couple of times,
and he was really old then, and.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
He's one hundred years old now, God bless him.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
He was in his seventies back then and he's now
one hundred years old.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
What a beautiful life. That's great.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
I just turned one hundred in August. Marv Levy?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Has there ever been a coach one hundred years old?
In the end of another has not been a coach
one hundred year That's a great idea. That's a great idea.
What else do we have to see? Page down? Super
Marcus Steeves enjoyed the bumper music. You know, I love
bumper music, big fan of bumper music, can't get enough
of it. I really planned my life around bumper music.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
I think it's a vital part of the show. It is.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
It's kind of like when I listen to music radio
every once in a while and I really love the
stop sets by the DJs.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
I'm like, wow, that was a really good talk, man.
I love that talk so good it was.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
In fact, I sometimes I say, can you give me
a longer stop set between the songs?
Speaker 3 (24:21):
I want?
Speaker 2 (24:21):
I want more talk. I love the talk. Uh yeah,
and the DJs, you know we're kiss FM. They'll be like,
oh man, this guy called up he really liked that
transition between the songs.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
I did really really, really good. Oh my gosh, what
are you doing right now? I'm sitting in Trafa? How
was that radio?
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Anymore? Broke on?
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Let's do better?
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Uh uh uh, No, Stradinas writes in but He's gonna
He's gonna disappear.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
No Stradenas after this weekend. He says.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
If Josh Allen is two years away from the slow decline,
the logic says, the fossil that is Matthew Stafford, the
MVP this year, is basically done. There you go, all right, Well,
I know, studinis, listen, you're gonna see what a real
quarterback looks like. In the NFC title game, and you
will learn that you can't ram it all day and
(25:10):
ram it all night. And as we well, Sam Donald,
you know what do you do? The questions after this
weekend will be does Seattle need to get rid of
Sam Donald? Because he can't get them? They're just like
he didn't get the vikings there, and he's going to
be that bad at least two interceptions against the Rams,
at least two. Let's go to the phones and we'll
(25:33):
say hello to ask a weed man. So let's go
to weed man. Hit me right now in South Florida?
Aren't you shouldn't you be out partying with the Indiana
Hoo's your fans?
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Weed man? It's a hurricane.

Okay, yeah, I think it's been that way for a
little while. I don't think that's like new.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
W I didn't think that. I didn't think, well you.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Don't, so you've still you up until recently, you have
been just buying it off some guy on the streets. Yes,
how upset is his weed dealer? Oh my god, she
just lost a ton of business.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
All the sudden. There are stores. I can't believe that.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Oh it has been ten years at least right in California.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
No, not that long.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
I think so, because when I used to work at
my brother's weed shop, they were still like you had
to turn it into.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
A store like a clothing store. For a while, they
just said it was like they said, it's for medical purposes. Yeah,
medicinal wise, it's been around for like twenty years, but
not for regular recreation. Now we been. There are states.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
I think Idaho has a total ban on wheat, so
you can't go to Idaho wheat me because you'd be
in trouble.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
I really thought, is that.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
How many other states it's not legally? I don't know.
I remember Idaho. I don't know what other states.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
I guess in Alabama it's not, of course, that would
I guess most of the Bible belt right, I would think,
you know, they might be.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
In a better mood if they have a little greener
I don't know. That's a.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Right calmbat dog right, sin He says, are you a
picky eater? Or what? You basically eat whatever you find
in the trash?
Speaker 3 (31:05):
That's from further.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
I buy strollersen food in publics and I eat.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Do you have an air Do you have an air fryer?
Do you have an air fry?
Speaker 5 (31:18):
No?
Speaker 2 (31:18):
No, all right, but an air fryer. Food tastes better
in an air fry. You should get an air fryer.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
I'd never never have one, I know, but it's it's it's.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Better than a microwave. If you're gonna do frozen food,
it just tastes better. It's not as rubbery the food.
It just tastes more delicious. Yeah, they're not that they're
not that expensive. You can get them pretty cheap, right.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
But the same amount of time you put it in for.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Uh, oh, you're worried about the time. No, it's like
you reheat stuff for like five minutes or whatever and
it tastes fine.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Well, when when frozen dinner is frozen, you gotta heat,
it's like four minutes.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Yeah, it's like the same. It's just a little bit better.
It's a little longer, but it's tastes better. It makes
it texture.

so our lead this hour from Western New York. And
(03:14):
if you thought the Grim Reaper, Grim Reaper of Coaches
was done, that the Grim Reaper had gone back, you know,
you know, like Santa Claus works one day a year
and then and then that's it, just on Christmas. Well,
the Grim Reaper of football coaches they work a few
days a year, normally.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
January. That's pretty much it. That's you're done.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And yet here we are past the midway point of January,
and ta da. If you thought the Grim Reaper was done,
you're wrong. You're wrong.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
You're wrong. You're wrong.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Another one bites the dust, and another one, and another one,
and another.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
One and another one.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
If you did not hear perhaps not Coach Sean McDermott
has been pull axed, fired by the team owner Terry Pagoula.
After a nine year run in Western New York, the
Bills have said bye bye to their head coach. The
(04:10):
Buffalo football team a perennial contender, however, they found new
and creative ways to choke in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
There.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
They did not reach a super Bowl under Sean McDermott.
Despite having teams that were at times favored to get
to the Super Bowl, they found ways to screw it
up so that the move came two days two days
after the game in Denver where the Buffalo Bills did
the thing you can't do at the time, you can't
(04:38):
do it there a couple of times ended up losing,
so a number of players are beside themselves. They are
bewildered thunderstruck because of the move to get rid of
Sean McDermott. Fans also outraged over this decision by the
ownership there in Buffalo. That is a good jumping off
points to let us discuss the question for the steam panel.
(05:03):
Did coach Sean McDermott. Did coach Sean McDermott get a
raw deal in Buffalo?
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Did he get a raw deal.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So I've got flippers, hamburger helper, and clover leaf intersection,
and we will combine all of these things together, and
we were going to make some chicken alfredo is what
we're going to make. So, first of all, to answer
the question, was this a raw deal for Sean McDermott,
(05:32):
The answer is no.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
No, with an explanation point. In fact, he was given
a sweetheart deal. In most places, McDermott would have been
fired three years ago. He got three extra years to
prove he shouldn't have been coaching the last three years
Sean McDermott. And so no, the opposite of that, this
(05:58):
was a move that should have been made a while ago,
so it had to be made now.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
It was inevitable.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Now that being said, I didn't think they would have
the balls to do it in Buffalo, so I'm surprised
that they did. And we did a Mallard monologue in
a previous episode of the show saying that, yeah, you
should get rid of this guy. Of course you should
get rid of Sean McDermot. The twenty twenty five season,
it turned out, was indeed the last dance that was it,
(06:22):
and the folding tables snapped in half, and Bill's Mafia
jumped on it and the table snapped in half, and
that's it. You can only jump through so many flaming tables, okay,
and before you realize that you're stuck on like level thirteen,
but you want to get to level fifteen, but you're
stuck on level thirteen. Well, how do I get to
level fifteen? Now we are skeptical. We are skeptical that
(06:47):
the Bills know what they're doing right, considering that they
gave this guy three extra years, three extra years Sean
McDermott got And the reason that we didn't think this
was going to happen is because foc fear of change,
fear of change, fear of the unknown. And the Bills
were comfortable. They'd been bad for twenty years and so
(07:07):
they were comfortable. The ten plus wins, playoffs, snow Globe
games on National TV, Chicken Wings in the air, everywhere,
Bill's Mafia breaking furniture like it's a home improvement show
gone bad. All of that stuff that's not Bills. That's
the essence of the Buffalo Bills and Sean McDermott coaching
(07:29):
this team had built up a nice ranch house, a
nice ranch home Sean.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
McDermott had built up and it was working.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
They were winning some games and all that stuff, and
it was wonderful and they were all excited and was
great and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. However,
what ended up happening every January. Every January, the ending
was the same. It was four of the past five
four of the past five years. How is this thing
(08:00):
for the Buffalo Bills. Well, they've ended it in heartbreak fashion.
And so when you keep crashing out, when you get
to that level thirteen, you can't get past it. You
don't yell at the controller, you change the strategy. It's McDermott.
They gave him another chance, and another one and another one,
and it didn't work out. So they could ban his
head against the wall and all that stuff. They couldn't
(08:21):
find the right cheat code, couldn't figure out warp zone.
There was no warp zone for the Buffalo Bills. Here,
just more frostbite and oh my god, we suck again.
And at some point you stop mashing those buttons on
the remote control and you go to YouTube or the
dark web, and you say, Okay, we got to figure
something else out. And so that's what they're going to
(08:44):
do it.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
The bills job Prime rib. The Bill's job is prime Rib.
You've got the lunatic fan base, check small town insanity,
you check that box. You've got Josh Allen, who's got
two more years of athletic prime, So two more year
of Josh Allen before the slow decline. So you've got that.
(09:04):
So that's all good stuff, right. So you get those
things and you're looking around, you're like, okay, so you've
got this kind of set up and where is this headed.
So you've got the job that's team that's contender, just
already a contender.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
We know that.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
And so you go in there. Whoever gets the Buffalo
Bill's job. We'll talk about this more as we go
through this hour here, but whoever gets that job, you're
not rebuilding, right, and you should never be reballying.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
You're installing.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Essentially, a booster seat is what you're doing. You get
a booster seat in there and you floor it, pedal
to the metal, and you just go for it here.
And we have seen that this can work. It doesn't
work all the time. It has worked. The most famous example,
Tony Dungeee built the Tampa Bay Buccaneers into a really
good team years ago in Tampa.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
And then couldn't get it done. And then they brought in.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
John Gruden, who cashed the check that was set up
by Tony Dungee. So it's like HGTV the Pigskin House
Flippers addition, and so you go in there and McDermott
he turned he did do some flipping. He turned the house,
the outhouse into not quite a penthouse, but it's like
(10:24):
a level below the penthouse. So he did that and
he ran out of money, or in this case, he
ran out of time.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Time is money, So he ran out of time McDermott.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
And so someone else will go in there, and if
the Bills don't screw this up, they will be the
ones to hang up the Lombardi trophy on the shelf.
They'll put that up in the house that McDermott built.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Now.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Secondly, so now Buffalo is back on the market, they
need to hire a new coach. We know that they
need a new sideline jockey. So the question with the
Bills out shopping for someone to guide them on the sidelines.
Here for the first time in almost a decade, the
Bills are in the market for a head coach. Who
(11:06):
do you recommend? You are now the headhunter, you are
now the advisor. Who do you recommend for the Buffalo job?
So this one is a no brainer. It's not that
difficult here if the Bills are serious and if they
really want to go for it here, and that's a
big if with the Buffalo Bills, it's a big if.
(11:27):
But if that's the case, you do whatever you have
to do, including handing over the keys to Niagara Falls,
to get Mike Tomlin.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Hold my god, what are you're talking about? Tomvin didn't
win it Pittsburgh. He's been bad for ten years. Shut up.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
You lose there.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
That makes fine, all right.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
The argument against Tomlin is he didn't get it done
for a while in Pittsburgh, and all that I say
for gaze absolutely forgezy. The problem Tomlin had he had
substandard rosters, inferior quarterbacks and was able to make the
playoffs most of the time in Pittsburgh. If you give
Mike Tomlin a legitimate thorough bred quarterback and that team
(12:12):
is going to punch their ticket to the Promised Land. There,
it'll be like muscle memory. For Mike tom I'm telling
you it's gonna be like muscle memory. The standard is
the standard that fits that bull crap fits in Western
New York like thermal underwear in January.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
Just fits, you need it.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
And so that job the Buffalo Bill's job. Now I
recommend Mike Tomlin. That's my unsolicited overnight device. But the
Buffalo Bill's job is a Hamburger helper job.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It is.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
It's in terms of coaching, ready made contender right now,
playoff team, consistently, big time quarterback. This is a just
add water situation. You are great, are You're not in
your head? Yes, it's a just add water situation. Dinner
is served, You've got the protein. Josh Allen and you'd
like to see him stop burning down the kitchen with
(13:02):
turnovers like he did against the Broncos and all that.
But the early cha chatter is not The early chatter
is not Mike Tomlin. The early chatter is that the
team from Buffalo is going to look to pacify Josh
Allen and hire Brian Dayball. He's the early favorite, not
Mike Tomlin, the human boomerang. Brian day Ball there who
(13:26):
failed spectacularly with the Giants. But hey, for he's a
jolly goodfellow, which nobody can and why not.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Buy him a beer?
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Buy everyone beers past the mashed potatoes, Grandma way to
go the old boys Club. That's the logic, right, there's
always the way you go. Default position. It's not what
you know. And this is not just football, this is
just life in general. It's not what you know, it's
who you know, and so not exactly great leadership, it's not.
(13:59):
It's more like I'm on LinkedIn, let me see what
they can find, or I'm on Express pros or whatever.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Now.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Either way, outside of replacing and the read which that
job is not open at this point in Kansas City,
no word that that job will be open. So we're
going to assume the position that that is not happy,
that that job will not open up. So outside of
that job, the Andy Reid chiefs job, this is the job.
(14:28):
This is the job. Don't overthink it. I would advise
to not hire a friend. Don't hire a friend. You're
not running a bake sale here in Buffalo, you're not.
I just go ahead and hire Thomas. Everyone says Tomlin's
not going to coach. He wants to take a year
off unless there's something that we don't know about that
hasn't been disclosed, Tomlin will be coaching again. So if
(14:50):
Tomlin's planning on going back to coaching, by the time
you get back, this job is not gonna be open.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
So like, come on, what are you doing? Just do
what it takes.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Everyone's got a price higher tom All right now, final
thought as for the guy. As for the guy who
just got dumped, we know how this works in the
NFL too, with the recycling.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
The NFL ahead of their time when it comes to recycling.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
So the question where does former Bills coach Sean McDermott
end up. Where does McDermott end up, Well, McDermott is
not unemployed.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
When I think.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Unemployed, I think, well, I don't have any money coming.
He's still getting paid by the Bills. He had time
left on his contract. He wasn't a lame duck coach
from what I understand. So I think of this in
the context that Sean McDermott is at the intersection, the
blinker is on, the blinker is on the station wagon
is idling the McDermott station wagon.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
The kids are in the back asking Dad, where are
we there yet? Where we going? Dad? Where we go?
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Okay, calm down, shut up, kids, all right? So he
dropped a token, He dropped a toe. Get into the
NFL arcade and boom the coaching mary go round fired up,
round and round and round, the big wooden horse, brass pole,
up and down, the same song every coaching cycle, every
coaching cycle, the same song. And mcdermot's resume it says
(16:17):
one thing. It doesn't say I'm gonna win you a championship.
It says I will make you respectable where the capital
r right. And if you look at these terrible franchises
like the Raiders and the Browns and the Cardinals, these
teams and there are others that have jobs open. Although
it appears the Tennessee Titans have decided on another terrible coach,
Robert Salah. What you wonder why certain teams always end
(16:39):
up in the same spot, Well, there you go. Anyway,
he would put you in the respectable category. And so
that's not a bad thing. And one man's trash there
is another man's treasure. It's always the way this is
in the NFL here And so it's the other thing
about mcdermoid is he's not He's he's not a TV guy.
(17:02):
He's got a really boring personality. He doesn't have much
of anything to offer other than coaching football. He's meeting potatoes.
There's no garnish there, there's no razzle dazzle. He's not
gonna go off and do a Barstool Bros. Podcast and
play grab ass with the bros at Barstool.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
He's not doing that. That's not how he's wired.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Okay, He's not gonna go eat chicken wings and drink
beer and do that while doing some fugazi podcast.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
That's not so.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
He's just one of these guys that rolls up his
sleeves and you got a sink that's leaking, he'll fix that.
He'll you get the thing over there that's not quite
working right on the on the door, He'll fix that
as well. And so the option do you take a
gap year? Some people say, ooh, you take a gap
year and then you go back to the market and
all that stuff, and that would be a big mistake.
(17:50):
A sabbatical by Sean McDermott. That's what the rich guys
that can do TV do. He's not that guy, as
we've said he's not that type of code. He's not,
and so you don't do the sabbatical. So he currently
Sean mcdermamation. She's at the intersection. This is a clover
leaf intersection. He's at the clover leaf intersection, Sean McDermott.
Speaker 3 (18:11):
So if you.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Turn left, turn left. If you turn left, you take
a year off and battery recharge. That's not what you
should do. You should not turn left. If you go straight,
you grab one of these flee infested jobs, like the Raiders,
the Cardinals or the Browns, and you go there. That's
like the roach motel. You go to one of those teams. Now,
(18:33):
the other option at the clover leaf intersection is to
turn ride, turn ride. You head to Jerry's World, where Cowboys'
defensive coordinator. That job opened up right now. Nose hasn't
hired anyone unless they hired someone the last hour, so
that job is open. So the defensive coordinator job is
(18:54):
open for the Dallas Cowboys. You go there. If you're
Sean McDermott, that would be the fallback. It's not a
full sabbatical because you're still coaching. But you go to
the Cowboys Jerry turns on the circus music, the spotlight.
Jerry's barking like a carnival barker there. He's got the
clown makeup on the whole thing. He's a carnival huckster,
and he tries to hype up your value and all
that stuff. And you do that for a year. You
(19:14):
go to the cowboys for a year, and suddenly mcdermot's
back in the front of the line and he can
get one of these top jobs that will pop open
every year, seven to ten jobs open up. And of
course the great thing about the coaching carousel, as you know,
the ride does not stop. It does not. You just
got to pick the right horse. That's the problem. You
got to pick the right horse. It is the Ben

a Bronco fan. Your comments can and will be used
against you in the court of sports radio. The Malad militia,
so act accordingly. All right, what do we have you
let's see, Glen writs instances the bill should bring back
Marv Levy for a couple of years. Think about it.
The law of averages, they will get back in the mix.
(23:14):
They're almost guaranteed to finally win it all.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Well, Marv Levy worked here at Fox Sports Radio. When
I first started, Marv was one of our weekend football commentators.
And I sat next to Marv a couple of times,
and he was really old then, and.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
He's one hundred years old now, God bless him.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
He was in his seventies back then and he's now
one hundred years old.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
What a beautiful life. That's great.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
I just turned one hundred in August. Marv Levy?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Has there ever been a coach one hundred years old?
In the end of another has not been a coach
one hundred year That's a great idea. That's a great idea.
What else do we have to see? Page down? Super
Marcus Steeves enjoyed the bumper music. You know, I love
bumper music, big fan of bumper music, can't get enough
of it. I really planned my life around bumper music.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
I think it's a vital part of the show. It is.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
It's kind of like when I listen to music radio
every once in a while and I really love the
stop sets by the DJs.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
I'm like, wow, that was a really good talk, man.
I love that talk so good it was.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
In fact, I sometimes I say, can you give me
a longer stop set between the songs?
Speaker 3 (24:21):
I want?
Speaker 2 (24:21):
I want more talk. I love the talk. Uh yeah,
and the DJs, you know we're kiss FM. They'll be like,
oh man, this guy called up he really liked that
transition between the songs.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
I did really really, really good. Oh my gosh, what
are you doing right now? I'm sitting in Trafa? How
was that radio?
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Anymore? Broke on?
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Let's do better?
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Uh uh uh, No, Stradinas writes in but He's gonna
He's gonna disappear.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
No Stradenas after this weekend. He says.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
If Josh Allen is two years away from the slow decline,
the logic says, the fossil that is Matthew Stafford, the
MVP this year, is basically done. There you go, all right, Well,
I know, studinis, listen, you're gonna see what a real
quarterback looks like. In the NFC title game, and you
will learn that you can't ram it all day and
(25:10):
ram it all night. And as we well, Sam Donald,
you know what do you do? The questions after this
weekend will be does Seattle need to get rid of
Sam Donald? Because he can't get them? They're just like
he didn't get the vikings there, and he's going to
be that bad at least two interceptions against the Rams,
at least two. Let's go to the phones and we'll
(25:33):
say hello to ask a weed man. So let's go
to weed man. Hit me right now in South Florida?
Aren't you shouldn't you be out partying with the Indiana
Hoo's your fans?
Speaker 1 (25:41):

This guy, isn't he the guy who sucked with the Jets?
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Yes, yes, he's the guy that sucked with the Jets.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
And so the Titans are like our quarterback, says we ask,
So let's hire an ask coach. So they got the
biggest tucks they could get, Robert Salah and they brought
him in. Yeah, it's pretty good. Is that a sports
take by you, weed Man? But if you want to
send a question and you send it to care of
at ben Malor, ask a weed Man there and we'll
(26:24):

Speaker 1 (29:03):
Yeah, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
You want Jen wants to know your thoughts on it.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
We Man's just trying to find out where you get
his next bong. You don't care, man, What are you

She says, what the f is weed man? That's that's
her question.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
We know you do you know?
Speaker 2 (29:27):
I did not know?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Just for legal weed in Florida, I have weed right now.
That was born in a store.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Okay, yeah, I think it's been that way for a
little while. I don't think that's like new.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
W I didn't think that. I didn't think, well you.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Don't, so you've still you up until recently, you have
been just buying it off some guy on the streets. Yes,
how upset is his weed dealer? Oh my god, she
just lost a ton of business.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
All the sudden. There are stores. I can't believe that.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Oh it has been ten years at least right in California.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
No, not that long.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
I think so, because when I used to work at
my brother's weed shop, they were still like you had
to turn it into.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
A store like a clothing store. For a while, they
just said it was like they said, it's for medical purposes. Yeah,
medicinal wise, it's been around for like twenty years, but
not for regular recreation. Now we been. There are states.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
I think Idaho has a total ban on wheat, so
you can't go to Idaho wheat me because you'd be
in trouble.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
I really thought, is that.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
How many other states it's not legally? I don't know.
I remember Idaho. I don't know what other states.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
I guess in Alabama it's not, of course, that would
I guess most of the Bible belt right, I would think,
you know, they might be.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
In a better mood if they have a little greener
I don't know. That's a.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
