Fill a buster time. It's our number three, our number
three and double barrel. Monday night football action will start
just outside of Washington, DC and landover Maryland as the
Chicago Bears go on the road upset City late field
goal at the buzzer to take down the team formerly
(00:21):
known as the Redskins. What went wrong for Jaden Daniels
and the Washington football team. We'll discuss that also outside
of that matchup. Give me your reaction to Lions safety
Brian Branch being suspended for one game for his postgame
haymaker to Juju Smith Schuster. And what did you make
(00:41):
of Mike Tomlin calling out the Browns general management Andrew
Berry by name for trading Joe Flacco in the division
Pittsburgh plays Joe Flacco and the Bengals on Thursday night.
We'll talk about all that and more right now here.
It is our number three, snapping out of hibernation, just
(01:03):
in the nick of time. Welcome in the beginning of
another hour of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in
the air everywhere. That's right. We are allies. You and
I we are allies. And we add a little pinch
of spice coast to coast border the motor and beyond
(01:25):
on the vast and sharply powerful microphones of fs are
ammating live from the Fade the Fadeaway baseline Jumper that
Moneyball Mallard never misses from the world famous Fox Sports
Radio studios as approved by og Art. Puffin gives the
old thumbs up on that and this portion of the
(01:48):
Ben Malar Show on Fox. Made possible in part by
our friends at Tyrack. For over forty years, Tyraq has
been helping customers find the right tires for how, what
and where they drive. Scrooge gives the thumbs up on
that ship fast and freeback by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Eileen in
(02:09):
San Francisco says he likes that tire rack dot Com
the Way Tire Mind show. So our lead this hour
from Landover, Maryland, just outside the Beltway. There the late
game on the Monday night football twin. But we'll get
back to the baseball. If you're on hold, you want
to yap out the baseball as the Mariners are up
too to Ozero on Toronto and the Dodgers barely get
(02:31):
by the Milwaukee Brewers in Game one of the NLCS,
and if the Mariners and Dodgers play in the World Series,
the entire sports media, the the triangle of sports media
on the East Coast, is going to lose their money.
I don't want to watch that. Who wants to watch
the Mariners of the Dodgers of the world. So of
course they're gonna complain. If Toronto's in there, they're gonna complain.
(02:53):
If Milwaukee's in it, this is gonna complain. Oh, this
is so bad, all right. Anyway, to the football twin
bill on a Monday night, you've got Troy Aikman and
Joe Buck. They were doing the Fox Refugees. We're doing
the game on ab S. They were there in the booth.
Dob Bears, Dob Bears, fresh off the bye week, trying
to snap out of that hibernation. The Chicago Bears team
(03:17):
against the squad formerly known as the Redskins, right, they
were the matchup there and Caleb Williams and Doc Bears
get the better of Jaden Daniels if he did not
see the game as they take down the Commanders on
the final play as time ran out, Chicago defeating Washington
by one point twenty five, twenty four on a thirty
(03:41):
eight yard field goal by kicker Jake Moody. Yes, the
same Jake Moody who was fired by the forty nine Ers,
the same Jake Moody who was at loggerheads with his
teammates on the sidelines because he missed so many kicks
in a forty nine er uniform. Well, he makes the
game winner, as he was the interim kicker there for
the team from Chicago, the Chicago Bears, paced by DeAndre Swift,
(04:07):
he ran for one hundred and eight yards on just
fourteen carries. I'm told that's pretty good. I'm told that's
pretty good, and also grabbed a pair of receptions for
sixty seven yards, including a fifty five yard catch and
run yack and e yack yards after the catch there
for a touchdown against a very sloppy Washington defense poor
(04:28):
tackling there By that defensive units of the Bears are
over five hundred. Don't tell anybody, but the Chicago Bears
are over five hundred. At three and two, They're coming
off their bye week, and they have now extended their
winning streak to not one, not two, but three amps
in a row. So the Bears have won three straight
under Ben Johnson. But the better story is in the
(04:50):
losing locker room. So that is where we will begin,
and the question what went wrong? What went wrong for
Jaden Daniels and the Washington foot ball team? And I've
got Bart Simpson, Hollywood Squares, and Will Smith and we'll
combine all of these things together and make the Baba Ganoosh.
(05:11):
We're gonna make the Baba Ganoosh is what we're gonna make.
So to kick off here, this was a night to
absolutely forget for Jaden Daniels, the prodigy, the breakout star
of the twenty twenty four NFL season, not just Jaden Daniels,
but the Commanders in general. Jaden Daniels is the headliner
and all that. And my word, and it's a conjoined word,
(05:35):
but my word for this night, for Jaden Daniels and
the Commanders is self inflicted. Self inflicted is the term
I will use here most games. As a rule, we
have several truisms, if you will, several of the points
that are part of the ethos of the show. Better
stories in the losing locker room, and most games are lost.
(05:58):
Not one these two things are you see, the better
stories in losing locker room because most of the time
somebody eft up to cost their team the game. This
is a great example of it. This is exhibit exhibit
to exhibit A. If you will exhibit A on this.
You don't need a Zubruder film style frame by frame
breakdown to figure it out. Jade and Daniels. I know,
(06:20):
Halloween's a few weeks away here, we're in the middle
of October, so but Jane Daniels picked up his Halloween
costume a little early. He decided he wanted to be
Bart Simpson, and he said, you know, when you're Bart Simpson,
you got to hand out candy, and I'm going to
hand out butterfinger And he used his butter fingers to
(06:41):
give the game to the team from Chicago. Daniels out
there in the rain, rainy night and auditioning for the remake.
I don't know if this is still on the air.
The America's Funniest Home Videos That used to be a
think back of the day, but it's still really but
it must be America's Funniest cell Phone.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Videos exactly that.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Yeah, no home video, but he had Jayden Daniels one interception.
He had two fumbles lost one of the two fumbles
in the game. Also, his running back Jakoby Krosky Merritt,
also fumbled on his own. So those three hairballs coughed
off by the Washington football team gift wrapped thirteen points.
(07:24):
Thirteen points for Eugene in Chicago's bears. As they get
it done now, they might as well have left the
Amazon package on the porch. And then Washington just invites
Caleb Williams to come over there and come pick it
up before the porch pirates get it. And he picked
up the packages. I like the package. That's a good package.
And here's the thing, Chicago wasn't even that shark like.
(07:46):
This was not the most esthetically pleasing matchup. It was not.
Chicago had nine penalty I think were over eighty yards
in penalties. They were begging, begging Washington to put the
game away, but Washington said, na, na, you know, we
can't have it. We want you very similar to the
(08:08):
end of that Dodger Brewers game in the NLCS where
the Dodgers tried to give the game away and the Brewers,
like Pogo sticked out of the batter's box and said,
we don't want the game, and the same thing here,
the magic carpar It was a magic carberk. We all agree
on that it was a magic carpet ride last season
NFC title game. And there's some turbulence going on now, right,
(08:29):
there's some turbulence. This is not a team that looks
like a playoff team right now, just based on what
we saw here recently. They did beat the Chargers, the
beaten and broken Chargers in the previous game. But if
you look at dan Quinn Medicine Man's Washington Commanders, one
week they are the Grandfather clock ticking perfectly, and the
(08:51):
next week they're busted in in a pawn shop. And
it goes back and forth, it goes back and forth.
And then on the other side, the Bears. They them
out of the bye week, They're feeling all good about themselves. Right,
they win their third straight game. And we were goofing
on Ben Johnson earlier in the year, some turbulence to
begin the seasons, behind the scenes drama orama, and now
(09:14):
he's like, wow, he could be the coach of the month,
you know, why not coach of the month? All excited.
So the Bears feeling good about themselves. Washington not so much.
Outside of that, we go out to Detroit. Follow up,
follow up to fisticus postgame fallout from the Monday Night
(09:35):
Haymakers scene around the football world, the NFL has decided
to punish Lions safety Brian Branch. Did you hear about this? Yes?
You did? Okay? Brian Branch maybe not, has been suspended,
suspended for one game, one game he will miss without
(09:55):
pay for unsportsmanlike conduct after he decided to get physical
with Chiefs wide receiver Juju Smith Schuster that set off
a Donnybrook post game as they were showing on NBC.
So the question, give me your reaction to the Lions
(10:17):
safety Brian Branch being suspended for his postgame haymaker to
someone wearing a helmet by the way in ju Ju
Smith Schuster. So this is all about the island vibes.
It's all about the island vibes. Everybody's watching these Island games.
(10:38):
You cannot run, you cannot hide. They're gonna get you.
Bad boys, bad boys, They're gonna get you. I you
can't pretend that nobody saw it. It wasn't the early
TV window when there were seven other games going on.
This was a game standalone game. And look, I know
there's some I got some feedback from some of our
(10:58):
guys in Michigan who are like they like the like, well,
you're not getting the whole story. Now we figure things out.
And some of those line guys are crying, they're complaining, like, well,
but Juju Smith Schuster shoved mister Branch in the back
during the game, and that's what he was upset about,
and that's why he became combative postgame. And my response
(11:23):
to that is two words, who cares? Uh, This isn't recess.
It's the National Football League. And you swing on someone
and after the final whistle the referees are leaving the
field like this is this is some games overright? Calm
down everything you're in the postgame scrum, thecond the old
(11:47):
days we'd laugh about this, But the modern NFL, this
is corporate NFL. This is the bureaucracy of football, modern NFL.
If you do that, and Brian Branch did it to
the Lions, you're handing the NFL a hammer, a massive hammer,
and you're telling Roger Goodell in the NFL, you're saying,
please hit me, hit me right in the nose, right
(12:07):
in the schnazzole right between the eyes. Hit me with
the hammer. Hit me with the hammer. That's what you're saying, right,
you're saying that. And so the NFL obliged. They said, Okay,
we'll hit you in the face with the hammer. Now,
this is not Branch's first rodeo. It is not. It's
not his first dance here. He's been through this before.
(12:29):
He's got a little bit of a rap sheet. He's
not the all time greatest villain in the NFL, but
he's gotten some issues here. So the league loves to
pretend that they're all about sportsmanship. They love that. The
optics of the Island games very important here, the sportsmanship optics,
especially these primetime games. And so this is like the
(12:51):
Hollywood Squares. If you play in one of these games
on the NFL calendar, you are in the center square,
even a safety for the Detroit Lion. And Sunday Night
you had Royalty, had Taylor Swift, the first Lady of America.
You had Caitlin Clark, the second Lady of America. They
were in the house, everyone's watching, everyone's checking it out
(13:11):
right there, right, and then you do something stupid and
that's going to cost this guy some real money. Now,
there's a chance the NFL vacates the suspension and just
finds him a game check and allows him to play
or something like that. But that is, if he does
miss the Lions next game, Brian Branch will lose seventy
six thousand, six hundred and twenty four dollars for that punch.
(13:34):
Have you ever wanted to punch someone enough where you'd
be willing to give up seventy thousand dollars of your money?
Because he did. And this isn't about sending a message.
It's it's childish. Even Branch agrees with that. I thought
me saying that that's mister Branch of the Lions. He
said to himself postgame, he said it was childish. I
(13:56):
mean that when a guy had missed it in the
locker room like that, there's not a lot of debate.
He said it was childlenge, it was childish, and he's
absolutely cooked cooked in his appeal Dan Campbell. Now, the
franchise charter, as I understand it with the Detroit Lions
is go out there and bite kneecaps, play tough, but
you've got to be disciplined. Okay, So instead this is
(14:20):
more wwe like, it's more along those lines. That's what
this is, all right. Last thing, dubb Pittsburg We go Pittsburgh, PA,
where Steelers coach Mike Tomlin openly questioned the Browns and
general manager Andrew Berry for the decision to decide mid season.
(14:41):
You know what Joe Flacco, Eh, we don't need Joe Flacco.
And they traded into the Bengals. And so the Steelers
beat the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. He'd been in pretty good,
all right, And so Mike Tomlin at his newser on Monday,
the the issue of now going against Joe Flack of
(15:02):
the Steelers and Bengals play on Thursday Night football. Hey,
here's what Mike Tomlin had I said five. It's interesting
one to have you hear it. Here's Tomlin in his
own words.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
You know, to be honest, it was shocking to me.
Andrew Berry must be a lot smarter than me or us,
because it doesn't make sense to me to trade a
quarterback that you think enough of to make your opening
day starter to a division opponent that's hurting in that area.
But that's just my personal feeling.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Okay, short and sweet from Mike Tomlin. So again, those
comments coming day after the Steelers mollywop the Browns and
their rookie quarterback Dylan Gabriel, a two touchdown win for
the team that loves Iron City Beer, and just a
couple of days before the Bengals will take on the
Steelers here that game in Cincinnati. Tickets are available on
(15:47):
Thursday night. So the question what did you make of
Mike Tomlin calling out calling out the general manager Andrew
Berry for trading Joe Flacco in the division. So my rear,
I loved it. I thought it was obviously I brought
it up on the show. I liked it. I would
don't bring this stuff up. I don't like I have
(16:08):
this other stuff I ignore because it doesn't interest me.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
I thought this was great because Tomlin is not exactly
known for just blurting out Christim. He's a great sound by.
Tomlin's one of my favorite people in sports to listen
to because he speaks not in cliches. He gives you
something fresh, even if it's a cliche wrapped in a different,
different group of words. And I appreciate that. And so
(16:33):
this is not some passive aggressive Oh Gollie g coach
speak that we get from almost all of these guys. No,
this was straight right across the jaw. That was a
straight right right across the jaw, kubboom, kind of like
Brian branch Uh and so I thought it was good.
(16:53):
He used the name, he used his name, he said
his name, say my name, he said his name, he
said the name, he said the GM's name. That's personal.
That is personal. It is It's very rare. This is
a special treat. We don't normally get this. Normally we
get is off the record comments. Where so and so
(17:14):
said a person high up in the Pittsburgh Steelers, Like
this could have been reported that way. Tomlin could have
told one of his beat reporters, well, listen, I don't
understand why this happened. And then the reporter would have said,
according to a source close to the Steelers, they're upset
that so and so Joe Flacco was traded to Cincinnati.
But no, Tomlin just he came on and said it.
(17:37):
He said, listen, we're all in the same division. And
he's like he walked into the AFC North Family Diner
and he flipped the table over like a scene out
of a comedy, and he flipped the table right over
there and he said, hey, listen, what the hell are
you doing? What's wrong with you calling out the Browns
like a guy calling his neighbor an idiot for leaving
(17:58):
the keys in his ignition? What are you doing here?
And you know you don't just hand a team that's
broken like Cincinnati, a division rival, a quarterback not keeping
Mike Tomlin's he's saying the quiet part out loud, right,
we know that. But this is a classic Pittsburgh Ginser
type stuff from tom because the Steelers they kick your
(18:21):
ass on Sunday. That was a domination situation. Then Monday
comes around and now Mike Tomlin planted a terrible towel
right on the front of the lawn there, and he
put one also, he sent it to the Cleveland brown
facility even though they're not playing the Browns again right away,
and they kicked Cleveland's ass. Dylan Gabriel not very good
(18:44):
playing like he was out there in the innermurals and
not doing well at the rec center, the rookie quarterback
for the Browns. And tom was like, hey, and one
more thing, by the way, boom, let me pour a
little salt in the wound, and he did. So that
was essentially Mike Tomlin. He was doing some cosplay as
Will Smith. Remember that famous scene that the oscars a
(19:05):
few years ago when he walks up and in this case,
he walked up to Andrew Barry, of course via the microphone.
Tomlin walks up and you know, slap him right across
the face and he walked away, had the mic still
in his hand, just walked away, and that was it.
Now to play Devil's Advocate. While we loved what Tomlin
had to say, we totally get why the Bengals did
(19:28):
what they did because they the Bengals needing a quarterback.
From the Browns perspective, though it made sense also to us.
And so I will play Devil's advocate and try to
give a little bit of at a boy to Andrew
Barry because what I had heard was Cleveland was planning
on releasing Joe Flack. That once they made the decision
(19:49):
to get off Joe Flacco and they were going to
go with Dylan Gabriel and they've got Shredera Sanders. I
was like, okay, we're gonna get rid of this guy.
Flacco's done. They were done with him, and so in
this case, they're like, well, we got a ham sandwich.
We don't really like ham sandwich, but we got a
ham HOGI for this guy. And we were not even
(20:09):
gonna get that because we're just gonna put him on waivers,
and so we got something instead of nothing. It's not
a great sandwich, but we'll take it. And all this stuff.
The optics are are pretty bad. I'll agree, the optics
are not great. Right. The training your former number one
quarterback Joe in the division to a desperate division rival
who lost their quarterback for the season in Joe Burrow
(20:32):
in mid October earlier than that does not look great, right.
That's that's Factory of Sadness Vintage one oh one right there.
But meanwhile, Tomlin's in the corner there and he's just
sipping Iron City beer and he's sharpening the blade, Mike Tomlin,
and getting ready for that Thursday night game in Cincinnati.

Speaker 7 (23:58):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Sawman says they selling buckets of commemorative Eddie Garcia gummy
heads in honor of his puck podcast. Now, who else
do we have? Schlitz beer from? Alf the alien o
Piner Pumpkin guts guessed by Scrooge. Yeah, that's always I
used to love the whole carving of the pumpkin, but
then having to get the seeds out of the pumpkin
(24:19):
was a rather disgusting.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Actually, that's a hard thing to do.

freedom nuggets is the correct answer on that. Look Delicia,
uh ding dongs decorated like hockey pucks. That's a good
idea from Donkey Sauce. That good idea. Mallard's milk from

day if you're late to the party. The San Jose Sharks,
that's a hockey team, are selling a popcorn bucket filled
with blank this season.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Yes, well, since they stole my gummy shark idea, I
changed it to shark teeth shaped popcorn.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Okay, is that correct? Shark tooth shape popcorn? No, it
is not correct. The correct answer. The NHL team noticed
the San Jose Sharks are selling this season popcorn buckets
filled with chunks of pop tarts. That sounds all right, right,
popcarts little pieces of different flavored pop tarts.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
I don't hate that at all.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
That's not a bad thing.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Right, Are they toasted?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I don't. I've not had that. I don't know. You
