did you grade Drake May and his performance for the
Patriots and a loss against the Texans? Also, why are
the Panthers sticking with Andy Dalton after another loss? And

(00:24):
Doug Peterson says that the Jags need a quote culture
change close quote. What does that signal to you? We'll
get to all that and much more right now here.
It is our number four. Have a wonderful Monday and
joy this fourteenth day of October.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Here it is after.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Weeks of waiting on layaway, the curtain is up for
the last of the rookie quarterbacks that is going to
play this year and start a game. Welcome in the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Maler Show.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
You're in the air everywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Fellow townspeople, as we give you hold hard facts coast, sdutcoast, border,

and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard protection
and over ten thousand recommended in stars tyraq dot com
the way tire buying should be. I know, mister Luciano
a big fan of the number ten thousand, So or
lead this hour. As we continue to navigate the highways

(01:48):
and byways of pro football, we stop off in Foxborough.
Why why not the much ballyhood starting debut of May
in New England. He was drafted number three overall in
the NFL dress so he made his debut home game

(02:10):
that brought out the Patsy's uniforms of years gone by,
the old Rod Rust classics. There the old pats uniforms
and CJ. Stroud on the other side was not very obliging. Now,
he didn't have a gotty stat line, but he did
have three touchdown passes. The Texans playing the role of
spoiler as they took advantage of some ill time decisions

(02:34):
by Drake May and they get the forty one to
twenty one Houston Road win. Joe Mixon in addition to
the three touchdowns by c. J. Stroud, Joe Mixon, the
former Bengal one hundred and two yards. He caught a
touchdown pass from C. J. Stroud and he returned. He
had been out with the last three games with an

(02:54):
ankle injury. But the better story here is in the
losing locker room and the of the former North Carolina
quarterback taking over there number three pick in the draft.
It's all about the new guy, the new shiny object.
So let us discuss the question. Keep it simple, it's

(03:15):
not that hard. How did you grade the performance of
Drake May in his first start with the Patriots. So
I've got jitters, sauce, and snow white, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
to put the biscuit in the basket, is what we're

(03:36):
going to do.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
So to lead off.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Drake May, watching him at the beginning of this year,
in this game, now, the first drive was mostly handoff, handoff, handoff.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
That's pretty much what they did early on.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
But as the game progressed, Drake May had the butterflies
in the belly. It would appear based on my television
as I was watching it here and so I will
not be mister, I'll be Benny bright Side here. You
have to grade rookie quarterbacks on a curve, a rookie curve,

(04:07):
and with that as the backdrop, it was not an
F performance by Drake May.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
It was not a deep performance.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
It was a C minus performance on the mal report
chard C minus for Drake May. You've got the good,
the bad, and the ugly. The good three touchdown passes okay, fine.
In fact, New England's sort of season high. That's how
pathetic the Patsy's are this year. Twenty one points is
a season high offensive total for the New England football team.

(04:39):
So that's good, A right, twenty one points not great,
but we'll take and May. The reports from the oh
it's never gonna be safe enough for him to play.
He didn't get killed, there was no catastrophic injury. He
took eight quarterback hits according to the official NFL statistics,

(04:59):
and so he was fine in that regard.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Now the bad bad to the bone.

Speaker 3 (05:05):
The bad.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
You could tell that Drake May was suffering from the
what I call the first day of school jitters. And
he had that flop sweat. It looked real comfortable. Is
that just the way he plays?

Speaker 2 (05:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Started the game with drives that resulted in punt, an interception,
then punt, punt, punt. It was pitch, punt and pass
is what it was, and a lot of punting not ideal.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Now.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
The ugly part of.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Drake May's debuts quarterback in the NFL as a starter
was turning the ball over early and often. Drake May
turned the ball over three times, two interceptions and lost fumble.
The Texans, taking advantage of the generosity of the New
England football team, scored seventeen points off the various miscues

(05:58):
by the Patriots in this game, and so this season
is lost. The Patriots are terrible, but at least now
Drake May will start until he gets hurt, and you'll
see if he shows any signs of improvement. There's something there.
I'm not saying Drake May is gonna be good. I
don't know that, but I know that he's better already
than Jacoby Brissett, who needed to be taken out of

(06:19):
the starting job.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
So we'll see whether Drake May is any better long
term or not. He's gonna get.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
An opportunity to work out the kinks if you will.
All right, now, furthermore, we've got another bad team. I
like talking about bad teams, Why why not? The Carolina
Panthers are horrible. They've been the NFL's worst team the
last couple of years and they're right there, neck and
neck for the title yet again. So why why are

(06:45):
the Panthers sticking with Andy Dalton?

Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yet again?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Another vote of confidence for Andy Dalton? Now, the Carolina
football team played the Atlanta football team in an NFC
South slobber knocker, and in that South sloberknocker, the team
led by Kurt Cousins was in the win column.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
They won by.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Eighteen points and another shaky performance by Andy Dalton a
couple of interceptions and he did have a couple of
touchdown passes, but Carolina in the game for a half,
and then as the game progressed, they were no longer
in the game. So why are the Panthers gonna go
back to Andy Dalton? And the answer here is rather simple.

(07:27):
There are no other options? Right, There are no other options.
Andy Dalton is both a washed up veteran who was
wobbly and the top scenario for the Carolina football team
in a non ideal scenario right now, assuming the coach
Dave Canalis is keeping it on the up and up

(07:49):
on the real here. It is no vote of confidence,
it's not a votifyer. Bryce Young is still hopeless. He's
lost in the sauce at this particular point where Day
isn't confused. And if Bryce Young had shown any upside
in practice, like he had learned anything from watching Andy Dalton,

(08:14):
then the move would be to go back to Bryce Young,
any sign of improvement. But the fact that Dave Canals
and this guy's lied before, he lied when they benched
Bryce Young. So who knows, Maybe they'll announce this week
that Bryce Young will be back, But at this moment,
we do the show today and in this moment today's show,
what we go by is the words parsing the words

(08:35):
of the coach, Dave Canals, and he said that he's
going to stick with with Andy Dalton, which is a
vote of no confidence to Bryce Young. That there's no improvement,
that it's been a few weeks and he still blows.
And that's just the reality right now. Last thing, we
now head to London. Can you fire your coach while

(08:57):
still in London? Is is that about to become a thing? Well,
I bring that up because in the very early game,
the barnstorming Jaguars played the Chicago Bears, and they were
mauled by the Bears a no show second half thirty
five to sixteen, Chicago kicking the crap out of the

(09:19):
NFL's favorite team in the UK there so, which led
then following the game to Doug Peterson saying that a
culture change is needed. A culture change is needed, he said, quote,
nobody's going to feel sorry for us. We've got a change.
I say we. It's all of us, he said, coaches, players, everybody.

(09:44):
We've got to change right now, the culture. Otherwise Peterson
quote continued, It's just it just gets out of control.
We're on a slippery slope, Doug Peterson said, or right
on the cusp of that slope. At some point we've
got to say enough is enough, and you've got to

(10:06):
have enough pride to figure out away. Close quote all right,
So Doug Peterson, big money quote there, NFL head coach says,
franchise he coaches needs a culture change. What does that
signal to you? What does that signal to you? So
I'll go first. So this is a snow White and
the seven Dwarfs classic is what this is?

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Mirror mirror on the wall.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Who's the fairest of them all? Or should I say
who's the shakiest of them all? Ding n n n Yes, Yes,
Doug Peterson is putting himself on blast. And the way
I read the room here, the way I read the room,
Doug Peterson is daring Shod Khan, the con man owner

(10:53):
of the Jacksonville football team. He is daring the owner
to fire him. Now, Jacksonville plays another game this upcoming
weekend against the Patriots in London, so they're not leaving London,
they're still there. And the coach talking about a culture change.
Well that's the coach. You don't get rid of the players, right,
the old argument, you get rid of the coach. So okay,

(11:14):
so fine. The Jags are guilty of.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
The M and MS.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Now what does that mean? The eminems this is miserable
misconduct or misbehavior and misconduct. Either way, it's not good.
It's a hot mess here, and Doug Peterson is admitting
that he's not good. He's bad at his rather obvious
the record says that you are, which the record says
you are. But at this point it's a dogpile because

(11:42):
not only is Doug Peterson saying the culture has to change.
Someone named Andrew Cisco. We have no idea who that is.
Where told he's a safety for the Jacksonville football team.
He told a local TV station in Jacksonville that defensive
players quit in the second half against the Bears. So
now you have a player on the roster who is
play playing of the game, saying the team is not
playing for Doug Peterson.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
But wait, there's more. Trevor Lawrence.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Another ridiculous contract extension handed out in the NFL. Trevor
Lawrence the overrate at overraight at quarterback. Trevor Lawrence says
the Jaguars are too fragile. So the coach says the
culture's bad, the defensive player says the team quit, and
the quarterback says the team's fragile. But other than that,

(12:29):
everything's great in Jacksonville, slash London. It's raining Molton hot
lava at this particular point around the Jacks. Where have
you gone, Blake Portles, where have you gone?

Speaker 4 (12:41):
It is the Ben Mahler Show.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
As we continue, all we'll talk about all of that.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Also, the demise of the Cowboys has been a running
theme throughout the Overnight Cowboys have lost yet again at home,
blown out by the Lions, Jerry Jones giving a tepid
vote of confidence to his head coach.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
And we had a baseball game, not much of a
baseball game.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
The Dodgers squished the Mets nine to nothing in Game
one of the NLCSLB. Right back at it this afternoon,
the Dodgers and Mets in Game two, and then tonight
from the Bronx, it'll be the Yankees and the team
named after the Bridges in Cleveland.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
There they'll match up in the American League.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
And then we also have a Monday night game tonight,
the Jets playing host to the Buffalo Bills. That's in
Beautiful Jersey. So a lot going on today. We'll take
your calls right now. If you would like to be part,
you can join us. Speakeasy rules are in effect. We'll
take your phone calls. These lines are open for business.
They were busy for some reason. I don't know why,

(13:39):
but they're open now and you can grab them if
you would like. Also on X at Ben Mahlor that's
at Ben mallor if you want to be part of
the program and plotting an international takeover, it's in the works.
It's being discussed the Blue and is out international takeover.

(14:01):
We'll get to that and we will do it.

Speaker 5 (14:07):
Next.

Speaker 6 (14:07):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Malor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 5 (14:16):

to communicate with those of us on this side of
the microphones. You can follow your host on x He's
at Ben Mallor and you can post that and follow
our technical producer. She plays all the music and most
of the funny soundbites on the Ben Mahlor Show. Her

Speaker 2 (14:41):
I have a people in my box right now, bro.

And all she wants to do is dance and a
live from the ti rag dot Com Fox Sports Radio Studios,
it's Ben Mallor.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
Colt up later this hour. The Malor Militia feud always
family fun and he he got a report from alf
the Alien opiner and the Commonwealth. He says Drake may
overthrew a couple of guys behind, a couple of guys
maybe too excited at least he took some shots downfield
and has the ability to run, which will be an

(15:13):
asset with no offensive line. The Patriots only need to
improve the offense, the defense, and the special teams and
they will be okay. It's great analysis that reminds me
of the commentary by the great Dick and Dayton, very
similar commentary outstanding. Shirley Scott writes in and says, forty
plus years of being a San Diego Slash, LA Clipper

(15:34):
and Charger fan has me well prepared for annual disappointment.

And when you were my favorite Doc my stories when
you went to Wrigley Field to drop off the goat
heead and then it became a national story and I
will never forget. I have not laughed this hard in
my life many times. When Rob Emmanuel, the Mayor of Chicago,
held a news conference, it was broadcast nationally saying we

(21:36):
will spare no expense to find out who left a
goadhead at Wrigley Field. And you had called me up
and done play by play as you were dropping the
goatthead off at Wrigley Field.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
It was just amazing, Doc. I will always have that memory.
What a memory that was.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
It's still all over Google. You can put in in
the search bar GoAhead dropped at Wrigley Field in box
or something like that. Yeah. They had a video interviewing
people that had gone to the game and they canceled
the game.

Then, well, because we got rained out, that's what.

Speaker 6 (22:10):
That's what.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
But that but that made it more of a story
because we got rained out. So they had nothing else
to write about, so they just wrote about the goathead rain.

Speaker 7 (22:18):
They said rain was on the way and then it
didn't rain.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yeah, I got you.

Speaker 5 (22:24):
Very upset. Someone deleted my goatthead sound effect.

Is the baby on the way, Junior?

Speaker 4 (25:16):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Is there a baby on the way? No, listen, Doc,
I hope not. I hope not. You're talking to me,
I don't know. I thank you, Doc. There is a doc.

Speaker 5 (25:24):
Mind would be big news that.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
I would throw you a baby shower. That would be amazing.
All right, Well, thank you, Doc Mike. Very nice.

Speaker 5 (25:33):
That almost upset Coop as much as the hollering. Jane's
calling back.

Speaker 1 (25:38):
Uh yeah, yeah, all right, Uh, Kathy and Madison was
very excited to hear from Doc Mike. Yeah, there's one person, right,
they're excited about the doc who used to call this
show every single day, no matter what, come rain, come sleep,
come snow, it didn't matter.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
He was always on the phone, always there.

Speaker 5 (25:57):
And yet another one who doesn't really listen to the show.

Speaker 6 (26:00):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
It is the Ben Maler Shows a week continue and
something that hasn't happened a long time.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
Fun fact, fun fact, fun fact back Ben.

Speaker 4 (26:14):
Malor fun fact.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
The check Cock Go Bears scored five offensive touchdowns and back.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
To back games.

Speaker 5 (26:23):
That's not the Bear sound effect.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
No it is not.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
For the first time since nineteen fifty six, the last
time a Bears team scored five offensive touchdowns and back
to back games. And Bears have scored now thirty five
or more points in consecutive games for the first time
since twenty thirteen overall, and Caleb Williams, the first quarterback
selected number one overall in NFL history, to lead his

(26:50):
team to a four and two start or better. So
all of those fun factoids about the check Cock Go
Bears of Doc Mike and something that will surely annoy
many in the NFL plotting an international takeover. Roger Goodell
yet again, mister Commissioner, planting the seed, hinting that the

(27:14):
NFL down the line will be holding their super Bowl
outside of US soil say it ain't so. Batman and
Edell over the weekend talking about the NFL and they're
spreading barnstorming to places around the world, said, We've always
traditionally tried to play a Super Bowl in an NFL city.

(27:36):
That was always sort of a reward for the cities
that have NFL franchises, he said, But things change.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
It wouldn't surprise me.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
At all if that happens, Meaning a game outside of
the US, a Super Bowl game, Boy, that'll go over
really well. Will that will not be hit with what's
wrong with you? NFL? You've lost your way at all.
Let's say hello to dick In Dayton, whose Cleveland baseball

(28:08):
team is now four wins away from a date in
the World Series.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Hello dick In Dayton.

Speaker 10 (28:17):
Good morning.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
Hello do you Dick?

Speaker 10 (28:21):
I'm very proud of the Guardians. Are the Indians. I
think they're going to go.

Speaker 8 (28:26):
All the way?

Speaker 2 (28:26):
Ben, you know you do you think that every year,
but now they actually have a chance to do it.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
And tonight Alex Cobb and Carlos Radon, who do you
like tonight in game one of the Alcs?

Speaker 10 (28:41):
I sort of liked. I sort of like the Guardians.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
You do.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
That's a surprising pick. And what do the Guardians have
to do tonight to beat the Yankees?

Speaker 5 (28:49):
Dick?

Speaker 10 (28:50):
They got to play defense and offense because the Yankees
are good. They always play them every year, and they
home Cleveland, so they gotta beat be good.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
You get better commentary than David Ortiz. You should be
on Fox. I don't understand why you're not on there. Yes,
what else, Dick?

Speaker 8 (29:07):
Oh?

Speaker 10 (29:08):
I'm I think, yeah, I really do. It's time for
him to leave. It's downright pathetic. Ben, you're not calling
in Cleveland. I couldn't even get on the show yesterday.
It was so crowded and I waited and waited. But
and they want to bench watch. I think they need

(29:31):
to dis revamp that team a little bit, you know,
because they're they're the laughing stock of Ohio. Really, yes,
you never heard me say that.

Speaker 2 (29:40):
Shaw know.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Deshaun Watson, the twenty ninth rank quarterback in the NFL,
so you believe it's now time to bene to Shaun Watson,
who is slightly better than Aidan O'Connell. Yeah, and slightly
better than Jacoby Brissett. He's also been benched.

Speaker 10 (29:54):
Yeah, and last night I listened to Mike go In
Chris Collins works with the Bengals. Defense looked pretty good,
didn't they.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
Yeah, what about the offense though.

Speaker 10 (30:07):
They were a little sloppy, But I think the best
thing I've ever seen Joe Burrow run forty eight yards
like that. You know, it was great, Yeah, it was great.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
You're looking at the positives here, you're grasping the positives.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
All right, Well, thank you, Dick, Bye bye. There he goes,
Dicky Dayton where he goes only he knows.
