(00:26):
a great day. The Doug Gottlieb Show broadcast live, same
bad time, same bad channel. We've been doing this for
a minute. We appreciate you joining us. Mark slera three
times Super Bowl champion, duo time pro bowler NFL on
Fox Analyst. He'll join us up coming twenty five minutes.
Get his thoughts on specifically two teams that he played for,
Commanders where he won a Super Bowl under Joe Gibbs,
(00:46):
and of course, the Denver Broncos. He's at camp on
a daily basis. Can the Broncos take the next step?
Last year bo Nicks at a breakthrough year, that defense
is outstanding. We'll ask Stink what his thoughts are on
the ceiling of the Broncos. So yesterday the news of
the day, the nod, if you will is uh, was
(01:13):
that the Indianapolis Colts had named Daniel Jones Danny Dimes
their starting quarterback, which obviously to anyone who's paying attention,
signifies that, yeah, might be about it for Anthony and
Richardson in Indy, Right, that's reasonable when you're a top
(01:33):
ten pick and a guy who was on the street
mid season last year and on the street this year
and signed, which is, you know, making good money twelve
million dollars, but that's still it was still look as
backup money. And Anthony Richardson is on the bench. Yeah,
(01:53):
it's reasonable. What's his future? I think you know what
it is. I think you know what it is. But
I'd also say that, just as we said yesterday, Just
as we said yesterday, the story of the NFL last
year on many levels, was former first round picks, former
(02:14):
starting quarterbacks getting a chance elsewhere. Sam Darnold, it was
his fourth team, but he made it work and now
he's on his fifth team and he's a starting quarterback.
Gina spent a couple of years ago, and of course
now this year with the Raiders getting a chance to
continue to extend what is a much better finish than
start to his career. Baker Mayfield's found a home in Tampa,
(02:36):
so it's never truly over, but it's probably over in Indy. Right,
this is the same guy who didn't want to go
back into the game. Teammates noticed, this is the same
guy who's been injured multiple times over it's really hard
to make up that ground. And this is a guy
who's just not been an accurate thrower. And there is
(02:58):
something that you know when when relationships go bad, comments
that can be taken either way or always taken as
as negatives. Right, anybody's been in a in a relationship
that that has gone bad, You say one thing, even
if it's meant to be a positive, it's taken its negative.
And the one I would bring up is Anthony Richardson
(03:19):
saying in the preseason, I want to I want to
be a sponge, I want to learn this offense, back front,
otherwise or whatever. It's like, you've been with the same
coach the whole time. You didn't want to do that before.
That would be that'd be a very reasonable thought. So
his agents saying, I don't know what the future is here.
(03:42):
Yeah you do, Yeah, you do you absolutely do where
the to me, the proper messaging isn't will as me,
isn't f this place, isn't anything negative. It's Anthony Richardson
will be ready whenever his number is called, and if
(04:04):
Danny Daniel Jones is the starter, he will do everything
to still be ready and support Daniel Jones as the
starting quarterback because his only job is to do whatever
it takes to help the Colts win this year. And
that may sound cheesy and on some levels probably not
terribly accurate, but that's the job. And if you want
to remain in the NFL, that's going to have to
(04:28):
be the job until somebody gives you another opportunity. Right
you had the chance, and despite the fact that everybody
wanted to make it work, they couldn't make it work
for you. To this point in Indy, you're still under contract.
They're not cutting you even though they could, and you'll
probably get a chance this year, but you're not going
(04:51):
to get that opportunity right now off the start, and
instead they're giving it to Daniel Jones. You know, aa
Jones has led a team to the playoffs. So and
if you think it's about anything other than what it's about.
All you have to know is Shane Steichen has to win,
(05:14):
and if you have to win, you're gonna do whatever
it takes to put the best possible product on the field,
the best possible product on the field. Uh, you know,
I thought it was interesting what his his agent, de
(05:34):
Eric Jackson said, we have a lot to discuss, right,
we got a lot to discuss, Like, oh yeah, we
got we got a lot. We got a lot to discuss.
One AFC executive said, it's hard to say to play
and the injuries have been bad enough, so it's a
hard one. But if a team had a real need,
since he has plenty of team control left, there should
(05:55):
be something out there for him.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Right, So the best thing for him is to sit, wait,
be ready and be ready to play. And you know,
there's also new ownership, so they don't you know, this
is when you have a new ownership. They didn't draft him.
You have a coach who was part of the group
that drafted him, the same general manager. So these aren't
things that are working against him, these are things working
(06:19):
for him. I think they just think that Danny Dimes
gives him a better chance to win. And I'm not sure.
Most people would disagree, right would would anybody not disagree?
So Steichen was adamant, And I'm reading from an article
here at ESPN dot com that the intention is for
(06:42):
Daniel Jones to be the permanent starter. That means he'll
be three full seasons into his career. He'd being Anthony
Richardson with only one season's worth of games played. You know,
in the NFL they have that expression, your best ability
is availability. And here's where Anthony interest is kind of stuck.
In order to be the best version of himself, you
(07:03):
gotta run him, because he's a spectacular athlete. In order
to run him, you put him in harm's way, and
he keeps getting hurt. So if you have him stand
back there and just pass, that's not what he does well.
It's just not. Not only is that not what he
does well, he actually has done it fairly poorly in
terms of accuracy in comparison to other quarterbacks in the NFL.
Can he throw him out, yes, Can you throw a
hundred miles an hour? Sure? Can he run yeah? But
(07:24):
you don't want to let him run, and he has
tendency to be inaccurate with him throwing the football I
understand his agent makes some comments and you sit there
and go like, hey, you know, you know what, what
what does this look like? You know, his agent, Derek Jackson,
trust is a big factor and that is at best
(07:47):
questionable right now. Anthony came back, made improvements in the
areas he needed to improve, and by all accounts, he
had a great camp. You can have a great camp,
you can improve, but he was so far behind. And
you're looking at this and this is his agent's job.
His agent is his advocate, His agent is his support staff.
(08:09):
His agent has to have his back. He can improve,
It still doesn't make him better than Daniel Jones. Shane
Stikeen has been there, has seen it, has lived it,
He's invested in it. And this is maybe the most
important point to make. If you have the same GM
and you have the same head coach who calls the
(08:30):
place and they are ready to move on to a
different quarterback, that's actually that's a huge, huge issue in
red Flag to most people in the NFL, because most
general managers have to make it work with a top
five pick. You just do. If you miss at this level,
(08:51):
it become I mean, it happened in San Francisco. They
miss with Trey Lance. Now they were able to make
it work with mister Irrelevant, but they missed with Trey Lance.
And Trey Lance has bounced around and he's having a
good preseason with the Chargers, but still not going to
get the opportunity. And Trey Lance, similar to Anthony Richardson,
(09:13):
didn't have a ton of reps in college. For him,
he didn't have any. He only had one REP game
in the COVID year against the Division One team. But
his agent's acting like there's a trust issue there, you know,
because I'm sure he thinks, well, I my guy didn't
get a fair shot. Dude, this is your third full
camp there. They want it to happen. If it's not
(09:33):
happening at some point, it's the player and he's just
not good enough for it, just wasn't ready. For over
forty years, Tyrak has been helping customers find the right
tires for how what, where they drive ship fast and
free and back by free road as protection, with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation. Tyret dot com the
way tire buying should be. I mean, I really feel
this way that Anthony Richardson, though it feels like it's
(09:59):
un fair that he's not gonna get that third bite
at the apple. One, Danny Die has been hurt before.
There's there's a better than average chance he gets a
chance again. Two, I think most importantly, let's not act
like the uh. The general manager and the head coach
aren't invested, don't want to make it work. And three,
(10:20):
there's gotta be some accountability that he hadn't been very good,
and then he hadn't been very healthy. It's got it's
here's why it's interesting. We got a great topic coming
up next, and I think this is the answer as
to why. Here's what I mean come up next to
the Doug Gottlieb Show. Arch Manning has spoken and we
(10:43):
can forget what his grandpa told us. We'll get into

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Be sure to catch the live edition of the Doug
Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
So it's a Doug Gottlieb Show Fox Sports Radio. So
Mark slerethil join us in I don't know about five
minutes here there was Archie Manning, that's the grandpa to
arch Manning came out and was like, hey, arch isn't
leaving college this year? Back for another year. And as
we point out the time, and I like the anthey
(12:07):
and Richardson thing. I think he started like fourteen games
in college. You got to see a volume of reps
because you don't get a ton of time to prove
yourself in the NFL. If you're not good enough, they
move on again. Anthony Richon becomes a poster boy for that.
But take a listen to Arch Banning, starting quarterback Heisman
Trophy candidate for the Texas Longhorns number one ranked preseason
Texas Longhorns, in response to his grandpa's comments, Arch.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Your grandpa gave an interviewed where he said he expects
me to be here next year.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Is he right?
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:38):
I don't know where he got that from. He texted
me and apologize about that, but I'm really just taking
a day by day right now.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Yeah. So there was a little uncomfortable fake media laugh there, Jaystude,
do you hear that one?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
I always hear that stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I know you do. When I heard that, when I
heard that drop, I was like, that's Jason Stewart, just
like we drew it up. Oh Tom, oh Tom oh Tom.
But again, let's not get it twisted. Like, I don't
(13:17):
know where I heard that from. I do think that's
what the Mannings think and I just think it's the
and I actually believe in what arch Banning is saying,
which is like, I didn't want to talk about next year.
I don't want to think about next year. I don't
want to put it out there because that's taking away
any percentage of focus of today. And it may sound hokey,
(13:41):
it may sound very tony Robbin's esque. You know, it
maybe may sound like come on, man, everybody's but it
is really unhealthy. It just is, you know, I have
a player I love coaching, and he he came back
for another year. He will have at least one, maybe
(14:03):
two more years to play after this. And we were
just talking about this, like what do you want to do?
What do we want to do about next year? He's like,
just why should we talk about it? Like what's the point?
You know, we'll worry about next year next year. And
I love it, but it is a very hard thing
mentally to convince yourself to do. But you're only going
to convince yourself to do it if every time it's
(14:25):
brought up, you say, I'm not thinking about it. I
can't think about it. But man, it's a hard thing
to do because you don't know and the last thing
you want to do is say, worst case scenario, I'm
not very good. I have to come back. These are
first world problems. He has a great year, wins the
National Championship, win his highest than trophy. Do you come
back then, like, I don't know, maybe maybe not, I
(14:48):
don't know. So the best way to approach it is
the just worry about today. And so where Grandpa Archie
is wrong is he articulated a thought about to tomorrow
which you can leave in the back of your subconscious
you can't utter and talk about. And in this case
this is gen Z who, of course Chase two also
(15:10):
despises feeling like I look, I know, it's a little
it's a little like a Tony Robbins. It's a little
like a quote you see on a billboard, or you know,
a quote you see on a whiteboard, but it is
actually true. You just you can't start thinking about the
(15:32):
end of the year in the next year, especially when
you haven't played a snap this year and your first
napskainst Ohio State. It's the Dog Gottlieb Show here on
Fox Sports Radio, and he's a three time Super Bowl champion,
two time Pro bowler, if you don't know the nickname Stink,
well maybe you'll know Mark Shleahir Mark Shlareth. He joins
us on behalf of a renegade fantasy. We'll get to
that in a second. Stink, How are you?
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I'm doing good, Doug, you man, how are you?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I'm good? Good? Good to catch up, Let's let's start
with a couple of teams near and dear to your heart. Okay,
because two teams who you played for, two teams you
won Super Bowls with, and two teams that had to
me they were surprisingly really good years last year. Start
with the Broncos. Okay, uh, everybody talks about the Broncos defense.
They did play a soft schedule because the last play
(16:17):
schedule obviously from the from the year before. What are
your thoughts on their ability to take that next step
this year?
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Well, I tell you what. I'm at camp every day,
so I've watched pretty much every practice, so I've been
around them quite a bit. And what they've done with
that roster you know last year and I said this,
I go just mark it down. They had they were
sitting at five and a half. I said, pound the over.
This roster is a lot better than the national pundits
they're giving it credit for. And they had it ranked
(16:45):
at the thirtieth best or thirty first best roster. Well,
they're a much better roster now with some experience than
they were even then. And I tell you what, backup
players like they can afford or they can have a
couple of injuries and still be okay because of what
they've done. And then they're scrimmaging the Arizona Cardinals the
other day. And Jonathan Gannon, their head coach, a good
(17:06):
buddy of mine, and I said, hey, man, you know
all the narrative has been bone Nicks got carried by
the defense. You know, they had a soft schedule, they
only beat one team with a winning record, you know
how the whole the whole thing goes. And I go,
what do you make of bon Nicks? And he said,
that dude can lead them to us, that dude can
(17:26):
lead them into playoffs. Like, forget about the defense. That
guy is good enough to lead them in the playoffs.
So there's a really strong football team. Yeah, they're you know,
the lack of experience in the receiver position, a little bit,
a little bit of an unknown in the running back position, JK. Dobbins.
I think R. J. Harvey Doug, I think he's gonna
(17:47):
be if he stays hell they I think he's gonna
be a thousand yard rusher. That guy is dynamic, he
is tough, and he's learning how to run in a system.
So it's it's pretty like, it's pretty exciting in Denver.
People are pretty pretty stoked about this football team.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Obviously, bo Nick's you know, a ton of experience in
college and then he's playing for a quarterback whisper and
in Sean Payton. But sometimes that second year is more
difficult because the playbook is bigger, the expectations grow, and
yet you still really only have one year in the league. Right.
Where is bo Nix in his kind of evolution as
(18:24):
a quarterback.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Yeah, I think all those things are fair points, you know,
and they've been brought up to Sean a bunch and
Sean basically just you know, sweeps those under the rug
and says not with this kid. This kid is just
that mature and that good and that's smart, and you know,
I think the other thing is Sean understands that second
year and he wants to build off that second year.
(18:46):
But he understands for them to go where they want
to go. You know, it's not just going to be
relying on the defense. They have got to fix the
run game. And that's really what they focused a ton
on this offseason was fixing that running game. And a
lot of it was the talking to the Broncos, talking
to Sean Payton, was the fact that the backs really
(19:07):
didn't understand entry points, mesh points, run of the football.
So it wasn't so much that the plays weren't blocked
efficiently enough. It's that the backs just missed the entry points,
they missed the holes. And it was really funny. The
very first play of the preseason against San Francisco, RJ.
Harvey has a eighteen handoff and it's something that's been
(19:30):
run in this league, hell since I played for the
Denver Broncos. Simple eighteen handoff and he gets about three
yards two and a half three yards two wide and
if he hits the actual entry point, now I've got
it on the Stinking Truth podcast. I actually did a
breakdown on my podcast and you can see it. Like
I tell us, I used the telestrator. If he hits
it where it's supposed to go from an entry point standpoint,
(19:54):
it's a ten to twelve yard run. If he breaks
one tackle or makes a cornerback miss, it's a seventy
yard house call and it's blocked perfectly, and he turns
that twelve yard run into a one yard game because
he's just off that pace. That's the problem they had
last year. That's what they're coaching these backs up on.
(20:14):
And I tell you what, it improved dramatically from preseason
game one to preseason game two. We'll see if they
can still make those strives.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Let's call the Redskins. Sorry, they were the Redskins, and
he played from the Commanders. Okay, and obviously you know
you're part of the Hogs. You're part of the absolute
best of that franchise. Last year, I mean, Jane Daniels was,
I mean, he was the better draft pick than Caleb
Williams and Cliff Kingsbury. System worked, and then obviously you
have kind of a defensive savant as your head coach.
(20:45):
It all worked. Biggest challenge to the Commanders this season is.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
What I really think it's. I really think it's the
Terry McLaurin situation, Like there comes a time when that
just creates bad juju in the locker room, and they've
done everything right, from getting Reddi Schneider to bringing in
Dan Quinn. Dan corn is not just a defensive guru,
but that guy is That guy is just a guy
(21:12):
you want to play for. He is just an incredible
motivator and an incredible connector of people, and so like,
I think that was one of the strong suits. Obviously,
Jayden Daniels was tremendous. Cliff Kingsbury his second goal around
as a play caller, and I had a chance to
sit down with him three or four times last year
(21:33):
as I called Washington games, and he was incredible sitting
down with him talking about what he learned from when
he first got in the league running that you know,
NFL style air raid to what he knows now and
what didn't work and all the things he learned in that,
and I think that was really cool. And then bringing
in Anthony Lynn, former head coach of the Chargers, former
(21:58):
head coach of the Bills. He's a really just a
staunch believer in the run game and that really helped.
That really helped that offense as well. But the Terry
McLaurin thing, Terrys is in the community. He is beloved.
He's beloved in the locker room. He's one of the
most gracious, just the best people you'd ever want to
(22:21):
be around. And when an organization decides that, hey, it's
going to play hardball with a guy like that, eventually
the rest of us that are in that locker room go, well,
they're going to do it to him, They'll do it
to all of us, and it can create some bad juju.
I don't think it's there quite yet, but they're getting close,
and I think they need to figure out a deal
(22:41):
to make him a part of that team. And the
other thing is every time I call one of their games, Doug,
you know, the defensive coordinator on the other side, he's
not talking about, you know, stopping Brian Robinson or one
of the other backs or Jayden Daniels as much as
they are talking about we got to shut down McLaurin
because it doesn't matter who the back or who the
quarterback is. That dude is a twelve hundred yard you know,
(23:03):
eighty five nineties reception guy every single year.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Micah Parsons, what do you do through the Cowboys?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Well, if I was a Cowboys, I'd have had him
signed two years ago, like, id of taken care of
my business. You gotta sign him. He's like, you knew
this is the problem with the Cowboys. You knew when
he was a rookie, d he was a superstar. You
knew how good the guy was. And the fact that
you shuffle your feet and you push it off and
you push it off and you delay it and you
(23:35):
delay it, like what are you guys doing? And ultimately
what it does is it costs you more money and
doesn't allow you to participate in free agency to its fullest.
That's why this Dallas Cowboys done a great job drafting,
but they don't participate in free agency. Why because they
always wait till the eleventh hour to sign Hey, Dak Prescott,
(23:57):
wait till the first game of the season before you
sign him. And now Michael Parson is the same situation.
So I mean it's already that ship is sale. They're
not gonna get him signed early, obviously, but I mean,
you've got to sign the guy. You got to make
him the highest paid defensive player in football. And I
know they don't want to, but that's what you're gonna
have to do.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I don't know if they don't want to because they
had a deal. I don't understand the cutting out the agent.
I do understand the agent has pissed, But at the
end of the day, you got to get this thing done.
He's got to he's he's got to play some football.
What about Trey Hendrickson, he's a little bit longer in
the two. You know, the Bengals don't negotiate in public,
but now they're shopping him as well. But he does
(24:38):
need to play this year. So at what point do
you come off of your negotiating horse saying, Hey, I'm
just gonna play this year and then I'll be a
free agent next year if we can't get the deal done.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, well he is. He's come out to my knowledge
and staid I'm not going to play without a new deal.
And so I think, you know, on Monday Night Football
and they were talking about everything has been agreed to
it with least as Salters on the report, I believe
everything's been agreed to except you know, the upfront money,
which is obviously the total guarantee is the most important part.
So nothing's really been agreed to if that hasn't been
(25:07):
agreed to. So you know that one is a little
sticky situation. But you look at the Bengals right now,
just the way they're structured, and there's part of me
I just look at Joe Burrow and go, you guys
just waste You're wasting one of the great quarterbacks in
all of the NFL. I think he's the best quarterback
in football. And you know, I know, you sign wide
receivers and everybody gets, you know, all excited about that.
(25:29):
But your scheme and your system. One, your scheme doesn't
protect the defense because you're always in shotgun, you're always
throwing the ball. And then you know, your system allows
Joe Burrow to take a ton of hits. And I
just hate the way they're structured. I hate the way
they operate as an organization. And then you know, you
take your best defensive player and say, hey man, we're
(25:51):
you know, we're gonna play hardball with you, even though
you've led the league in sacks the last two years
at seventeen and a half both years. So again, it's
just one of those Bengal things, you know, like you're
just gonna screw this thing up, aren't you.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
How is Renegade Fantasy different from other apps? Different from
other fantasy places.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Well, I think it's I think it's really cool because
they had been working on this for several years and
you know, getting the technology and then getting you know,
getting the patent and all that stuff on it. It's
it's in game substitution. So if you go to uh,
you go to Mark Schlere dot Renegade Fantasy dot com,
you can join my league, but you can substitute in
(26:32):
the middle of the middle of the game. Your quarterback's
not playing well, you got to back up on the bench,
you can substitute them out. Guy gets injured, substitute them
out and uh. And so that's how Renegade Fantasy works.
So it's no longer that player's fault that you lost
your fantasy matchup. You've got the opportunity to sub out
anybody on your roster. Uh. It just makes it's just

a game with Ilo.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
This is game time on the Doug Gottlieb Show.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Well, you got there, Isaac longcro.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Well, Doug, we got two choices today, for better or worse?
Recapping your top story. For better or worse? The future
of Anthony Richardson or the future of Daniel Jones. Not
about the lesser two evils there by the.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Way, which one's better? I mean, Dan, the future of
Daniel Jones is better than the future of Anthony Richardson.
You know, it just is. He's a better passer and
he's gonna get a shot. So I'm gonna go. Future
of Anthony Richardson, I mean, the future of Daniel Jones
is better. Future of Anthony richard is worse.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
Okay, Next, for better or Worse? We got a pair
of c w's for you. For better or worse? Cam
Ward or Caleb Williams.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Wown right, So for better or worse? Cam Ward or
Kayleb Williams. I'm gonna go, well, ye, I'm gonna go
Kayleb Williams. I think Kayleb Williams. I mean I watched
cam Ward play a ton a really talented player. I
think he's older than Caleb Williams, even though he came
(31:04):
out a year behind him, but he's still there was
some decision making that left something to be desired last year.
At times when he's with the Miami Hurricanes, Caleb is
he's more like an Aaron Rodgers type. You know, he's
not that big, but does have the arm strength, does
(31:24):
have the mobility, has a creativity. Not easy to coach,
but I would go to Caleb Williams.
Speaker 5 (31:31):
And also it certainly helps it appears to have Ben
Johnson in his corner this year.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
All right.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
Next item for QB two of the Cleveland Browns for
better or Worse, Dylan Gabriel or Shadoor Sanders.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I think you gotta go Dylan Gabriel. I think Dylan
Gabriel is more wired to be a backup. He's they
both played a ton of football. Shoudure. In order for
the fifth round to beat out the throne, you have
to be so much better, and I'm guessing he hasn't been.
(32:12):
I don't know if they called a better game this
past weekend, but it definitely looked like a better offense
with Dylan Gabriel, although they've had more time together. But
all things being equal, I think Dalan Gabriel gets the
first shot out.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
All right, So we've gone with some quarterbacks here. Let's
move on to some teams Aaron Rodgers' former team or
Aaron rodgers new team for better or worse this season?
The New York Jets or the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
The Pittsburgh Steelers elite defense. And I don't think Aaron
Rodgers will be great, but I think the key stat
for Aaron Rodgers always he does not turn the football over.
Don't turn the football over, give yourself a chance to
win every game. I'm gonna go with Pittsburg Steelers are.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
Better for better or worse in the AFE West. I
think this is sneakily, very very close. And I say
that as someone fully biased towards one of these teams
for better or worse. The Los Angeles Chargers or the
Denver Broncos.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Chargers. I think they have
a better quarterback. I think the Broncos defense is a
little bit better, but the Chargers defense is improving. Obviously,
you lose your starting left tackle, that's not great. I
still think the Chargers are further long.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
God, I hope you're right all right. Onto college football.
So one team that has an incoming legendary head coach
and another program that it is going into its second
year after the departure of a legendary head coach better
or worse than twenty twenty five North Carolina.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Or what not?
Speaker 5 (33:58):
An Alabama.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Better worse in terms of how good they are or record.
Speaker 5 (34:05):
Because is good, I would say one of the one
of the same.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Yeah, I don't think that's the same. But Alabama, Alabama
across the board, it's looks seventy new players is hard.
At North Carolina, it's just hard and his first time
coaching in college and he has seventy new players. I
don't care how down the ACC is in comparison. I'll
take Alabama. I'll take I think Alabama will be better.
Speaker 5 (34:31):
Okay, And our final item on this edition for better
or worse kind of a preview of coming attractions with
what we're going to talk about in a little bit.
But today, August the twentieth, twenty twenty five, happens to
be National Radio Day. Yes, we get our own day,
(34:54):
waiting for all the freebies, all the perks, preferred parking,
you know, discounts on various things. So it's I guess
a topic of conversation in today's media landscape for better
or worse radio or podcasts.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Wow, I am a radio guy. This is where I
cut my teeth. I love it. I think there's an
art to doing it. It doesn't mean there's not an
art to a podcast. But can I'll be edited live
radio is? I don't know. It just makes my heart
my heart full. So radio better than podcasts.
Speaker 5 (35:30):
Okay, And one additional note before we close out this edition,
one last thing, Isaac.
Speaker 4 (35:37):
Yeah, he said radio's better, right, Doug, Yes, because your
live show can then be turned into a podcast, which you.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Can download at the end of the show. Wherever you
download podcasts, just type in Doug Gottley, make sure you
follow rate review it, give us a good review, Tell
him Jasu, who's awesome?
Speaker 5 (35:54):
Okay, go ahead, No, that's right. I'm not making any
of this up. But among other things that addition to
being National Radio Day. Today is also National Chocolate Pecan
Pie Day. It is also National Bacon Lover's Day.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Is there people that don't like bacon?
Speaker 5 (36:16):
They're literally cannot I mean, I suppose like vegetarians and vegans,
but and for religious purposes. Oh that's true.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Yeah it listen it uh Radio National Bacon Day same day.
Speaker 5 (36:33):
That that and National Chocolate Pecan Pie Day.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
I remember, like fifteen years ago, this whole National Something
Day was never a thing. I don't know who who's
the Who's the Wizard of Who's the wizard of No,
it's never been Yes, it has. Twenty years ago, we
never heard about National Bloom Day.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
Hear about it because we didn't have the internet. We
had we've had internet for it, had it on the
ap wire and morning rock radio shows. Who's Booming? So
it's up rock school Retch Star Red Star told me
that it's new chocolate peacan put.
Speaker 4 (37:06):
It's National Dirty Underwear Day.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Yay.
Speaker 5 (37:08):
Actually looking at a news article, this is a Getty
Images archive photo. Google mo Marconi celebrates National Radio Day
in nineteen twenty five. So allright, by the way, I
just completely five. I just completely made that up.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
By the way, all right, I was just gonna say it,
hundredth anniversary.
Speaker 5 (37:26):
It is also National Accessible Air Travel Day. I'm not
sure what the distinction is there. Unfortunately, air travel seems
to be less and less accessible generally.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
And finally, you know, we have.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
Bacon Day, Chocolate pecan Pie Day, and Radio Day.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Down with the pecan pie.
Speaker 5 (37:45):
Yes, but apparently to balance all that out, I'm not
making this up. Today is World Mosquito Day.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Really.
Speaker 5 (37:55):
I was viciously and mercilessly attacked by a band of
mangie mosquitoes just the other day, and now I find
out that I have to share National Radio Day with mosquitos.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
A band of mosquitoes, ladies and gentlemen, the mosquitoes. They're
attacking Isaac's ankles.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Yeah, the mosquito ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Mosquitoes.
Speaker 5 (38:20):
Why do mosquitoes get their own day?
Speaker 4 (38:23):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
I don't know. But I was in bed last night
and I think there was a mosquito and I could
hear in.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
My ear, you know, the yeah, what's the worst one's
trapped in the room with you.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
And that concludes that edition, in which I'm sure listeners
learned a lot more than they knew of for Better
or Worse.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
Game.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
This is game time on the Dug Gottleap Show.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
It's the Doug gott Leap Show here on Fox Sports Radio.
It is National Radio Day, it is, so we're going
to talk about it. And I think my love and
knowledge of radio I don't know might be impressive. And
we'll find out what Jay Stews is as well as
Ilo and Uh Sammy's. That's up coming next to The

Doug Gottlieb Show, Fuck Sports Radio. I hope you're having
(00:26):
a great day. The Doug Gottlieb Show broadcast live, same
bad time, same bad channel. We've been doing this for
a minute. We appreciate you joining us. Mark slera three
times Super Bowl champion, duo time pro bowler NFL on
Fox Analyst. He'll join us up coming twenty five minutes.
Get his thoughts on specifically two teams that he played for,
Commanders where he won a Super Bowl under Joe Gibbs,
(00:46):
and of course, the Denver Broncos. He's at camp on
a daily basis. Can the Broncos take the next step?
Last year bo Nicks at a breakthrough year, that defense
is outstanding. We'll ask Stink what his thoughts are on
the ceiling of the Broncos. So yesterday the news of
the day, the nod, if you will is uh, was
(01:13):
that the Indianapolis Colts had named Daniel Jones Danny Dimes
their starting quarterback, which obviously to anyone who's paying attention,
signifies that, yeah, might be about it for Anthony and
Richardson in Indy, Right, that's reasonable when you're a top
(01:33):
ten pick and a guy who was on the street
mid season last year and on the street this year
and signed, which is, you know, making good money twelve
million dollars, but that's still it was still look as
backup money. And Anthony Richardson is on the bench. Yeah,
(01:53):
it's reasonable. What's his future? I think you know what
it is. I think you know what it is. But
I'd also say that, just as we said yesterday, Just
as we said yesterday, the story of the NFL last
year on many levels, was former first round picks, former
(02:14):
starting quarterbacks getting a chance elsewhere. Sam Darnold, it was
his fourth team, but he made it work and now
he's on his fifth team and he's a starting quarterback.
Gina spent a couple of years ago, and of course
now this year with the Raiders getting a chance to
continue to extend what is a much better finish than
start to his career. Baker Mayfield's found a home in Tampa,
(02:36):
so it's never truly over, but it's probably over in Indy. Right,
this is the same guy who didn't want to go
back into the game. Teammates noticed, this is the same
guy who's been injured multiple times over it's really hard
to make up that ground. And this is a guy
who's just not been an accurate thrower. And there is
(02:58):
something that you know when when relationships go bad, comments
that can be taken either way or always taken as
as negatives. Right, anybody's been in a in a relationship
that that has gone bad, You say one thing, even
if it's meant to be a positive, it's taken its negative.
And the one I would bring up is Anthony Richardson
(03:19):
saying in the preseason, I want to I want to
be a sponge, I want to learn this offense, back front,
otherwise or whatever. It's like, you've been with the same
coach the whole time. You didn't want to do that before.
That would be that'd be a very reasonable thought. So
his agents saying, I don't know what the future is here.
(03:42):
Yeah you do, Yeah, you do you absolutely do where
the to me, the proper messaging isn't will as me,
isn't f this place, isn't anything negative. It's Anthony Richardson
will be ready whenever his number is called, and if
(04:04):
Danny Daniel Jones is the starter, he will do everything
to still be ready and support Daniel Jones as the
starting quarterback because his only job is to do whatever
it takes to help the Colts win this year. And
that may sound cheesy and on some levels probably not
terribly accurate, but that's the job. And if you want
to remain in the NFL, that's going to have to
(04:28):
be the job until somebody gives you another opportunity. Right
you had the chance, and despite the fact that everybody
wanted to make it work, they couldn't make it work
for you. To this point in Indy, you're still under contract.
They're not cutting you even though they could, and you'll
probably get a chance this year, but you're not going
(04:51):
to get that opportunity right now off the start, and
instead they're giving it to Daniel Jones. You know, aa
Jones has led a team to the playoffs. So and
if you think it's about anything other than what it's about.
All you have to know is Shane Steichen has to win,
(05:14):
and if you have to win, you're gonna do whatever
it takes to put the best possible product on the field,
the best possible product on the field. Uh, you know,
I thought it was interesting what his his agent, de
(05:34):
Eric Jackson said, we have a lot to discuss, right,
we got a lot to discuss, Like, oh yeah, we
got we got a lot. We got a lot to discuss.
One AFC executive said, it's hard to say to play
and the injuries have been bad enough, so it's a
hard one. But if a team had a real need,
since he has plenty of team control left, there should
(05:55):
be something out there for him.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Right, So the best thing for him is to sit, wait,
be ready and be ready to play. And you know,
there's also new ownership, so they don't you know, this
is when you have a new ownership. They didn't draft him.
You have a coach who was part of the group
that drafted him, the same general manager. So these aren't
things that are working against him, these are things working
(06:19):
for him. I think they just think that Danny Dimes
gives him a better chance to win. And I'm not sure.
Most people would disagree, right would would anybody not disagree?
So Steichen was adamant, And I'm reading from an article
here at ESPN dot com that the intention is for
(06:42):
Daniel Jones to be the permanent starter. That means he'll
be three full seasons into his career. He'd being Anthony
Richardson with only one season's worth of games played. You know,
in the NFL they have that expression, your best ability
is availability. And here's where Anthony interest is kind of stuck.
In order to be the best version of himself, you
(07:03):
gotta run him, because he's a spectacular athlete. In order
to run him, you put him in harm's way, and
he keeps getting hurt. So if you have him stand
back there and just pass, that's not what he does well.
It's just not. Not only is that not what he
does well, he actually has done it fairly poorly in
terms of accuracy in comparison to other quarterbacks in the NFL.
Can he throw him out, yes, Can you throw a
hundred miles an hour? Sure? Can he run yeah? But
(07:24):
you don't want to let him run, and he has
tendency to be inaccurate with him throwing the football I
understand his agent makes some comments and you sit there
and go like, hey, you know, you know what, what
what does this look like? You know, his agent, Derek Jackson,
trust is a big factor and that is at best
(07:47):
questionable right now. Anthony came back, made improvements in the
areas he needed to improve, and by all accounts, he
had a great camp. You can have a great camp,
you can improve, but he was so far behind. And
you're looking at this and this is his agent's job.
His agent is his advocate, His agent is his support staff.
(08:09):
His agent has to have his back. He can improve,
It still doesn't make him better than Daniel Jones. Shane
Stikeen has been there, has seen it, has lived it,
He's invested in it. And this is maybe the most
important point to make. If you have the same GM
and you have the same head coach who calls the
(08:30):
place and they are ready to move on to a
different quarterback, that's actually that's a huge, huge issue in
red Flag to most people in the NFL, because most
general managers have to make it work with a top
five pick. You just do. If you miss at this level,
(08:51):
it become I mean, it happened in San Francisco. They
miss with Trey Lance. Now they were able to make
it work with mister Irrelevant, but they missed with Trey Lance.
And Trey Lance has bounced around and he's having a
good preseason with the Chargers, but still not going to
get the opportunity. And Trey Lance, similar to Anthony Richardson,
(09:13):
didn't have a ton of reps in college. For him,
he didn't have any. He only had one REP game
in the COVID year against the Division One team. But
his agent's acting like there's a trust issue there, you know,
because I'm sure he thinks, well, I my guy didn't
get a fair shot. Dude, this is your third full
camp there. They want it to happen. If it's not
(09:33):
happening at some point, it's the player and he's just
not good enough for it, just wasn't ready. For over
forty years, Tyrak has been helping customers find the right
tires for how what, where they drive ship fast and
free and back by free road as protection, with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation. Tyret dot com the
way tire buying should be. I mean, I really feel
this way that Anthony Richardson, though it feels like it's
(09:59):
un fair that he's not gonna get that third bite
at the apple. One, Danny Die has been hurt before.
There's there's a better than average chance he gets a
chance again. Two, I think most importantly, let's not act
like the uh. The general manager and the head coach
aren't invested, don't want to make it work. And three,
(10:20):
there's gotta be some accountability that he hadn't been very good,
and then he hadn't been very healthy. It's got it's
here's why it's interesting. We got a great topic coming
up next, and I think this is the answer as
to why. Here's what I mean come up next to
the Doug Gottlieb Show. Arch Manning has spoken and we
(10:43):
can forget what his grandpa told us. We'll get into
that next, But first, from searching online to asking your

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Be sure to catch the live edition of the Doug
Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
So it's a Doug Gottlieb Show Fox Sports Radio. So
Mark slerethil join us in I don't know about five
minutes here there was Archie Manning, that's the grandpa to
arch Manning came out and was like, hey, arch isn't
leaving college this year? Back for another year. And as
we point out the time, and I like the anthey
(12:07):
and Richardson thing. I think he started like fourteen games
in college. You got to see a volume of reps
because you don't get a ton of time to prove
yourself in the NFL. If you're not good enough, they
move on again. Anthony Richon becomes a poster boy for that.
But take a listen to Arch Banning, starting quarterback Heisman
Trophy candidate for the Texas Longhorns number one ranked preseason
Texas Longhorns, in response to his grandpa's comments, Arch.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Your grandpa gave an interviewed where he said he expects
me to be here next year.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Is he right?
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:38):
I don't know where he got that from. He texted
me and apologize about that, but I'm really just taking
a day by day right now.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Yeah. So there was a little uncomfortable fake media laugh there, Jaystude,
do you hear that one?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
I always hear that stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I know you do. When I heard that, when I
heard that drop, I was like, that's Jason Stewart, just
like we drew it up. Oh Tom, oh Tom oh Tom.
But again, let's not get it twisted. Like, I don't
(13:17):
know where I heard that from. I do think that's
what the Mannings think and I just think it's the
and I actually believe in what arch Banning is saying,
which is like, I didn't want to talk about next year.
I don't want to think about next year. I don't
want to put it out there because that's taking away
any percentage of focus of today. And it may sound hokey,
(13:41):
it may sound very tony Robbin's esque. You know, it
maybe may sound like come on, man, everybody's but it
is really unhealthy. It just is, you know, I have
a player I love coaching, and he he came back
for another year. He will have at least one, maybe
(14:03):
two more years to play after this. And we were
just talking about this, like what do you want to do?
What do we want to do about next year? He's like,
just why should we talk about it? Like what's the point?
You know, we'll worry about next year next year. And
I love it, but it is a very hard thing
mentally to convince yourself to do. But you're only going
to convince yourself to do it if every time it's
(14:25):
brought up, you say, I'm not thinking about it. I
can't think about it. But man, it's a hard thing
to do because you don't know and the last thing
you want to do is say, worst case scenario, I'm
not very good. I have to come back. These are
first world problems. He has a great year, wins the
National Championship, win his highest than trophy. Do you come
back then, like, I don't know, maybe maybe not, I
(14:48):
don't know. So the best way to approach it is
the just worry about today. And so where Grandpa Archie
is wrong is he articulated a thought about to tomorrow
which you can leave in the back of your subconscious
you can't utter and talk about. And in this case
this is gen Z who, of course Chase two also
(15:10):
despises feeling like I look, I know, it's a little
it's a little like a Tony Robbins. It's a little
like a quote you see on a billboard, or you know,
a quote you see on a whiteboard, but it is
actually true. You just you can't start thinking about the
(15:32):
end of the year in the next year, especially when
you haven't played a snap this year and your first
napskainst Ohio State. It's the Dog Gottlieb Show here on
Fox Sports Radio, and he's a three time Super Bowl champion,
two time Pro bowler, if you don't know the nickname Stink,
well maybe you'll know Mark Shleahir Mark Shlareth. He joins
us on behalf of a renegade fantasy. We'll get to
that in a second. Stink, How are you?
Speaker 2 (15:54):
I'm doing good, Doug, you man, how are you?
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I'm good? Good? Good to catch up, Let's let's start
with a couple of teams near and dear to your heart. Okay,
because two teams who you played for, two teams you
won Super Bowls with, and two teams that had to
me they were surprisingly really good years last year. Start
with the Broncos. Okay, uh, everybody talks about the Broncos defense.
They did play a soft schedule because the last play
(16:17):
schedule obviously from the from the year before. What are
your thoughts on their ability to take that next step
this year?
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Well, I tell you what. I'm at camp every day,
so I've watched pretty much every practice, so I've been
around them quite a bit. And what they've done with
that roster you know last year and I said this,
I go just mark it down. They had they were
sitting at five and a half. I said, pound the over.
This roster is a lot better than the national pundits
they're giving it credit for. And they had it ranked
(16:45):
at the thirtieth best or thirty first best roster. Well,
they're a much better roster now with some experience than
they were even then. And I tell you what, backup
players like they can afford or they can have a
couple of injuries and still be okay because of what
they've done. And then they're scrimmaging the Arizona Cardinals the
other day. And Jonathan Gannon, their head coach, a good
(17:06):
buddy of mine, and I said, hey, man, you know
all the narrative has been bone Nicks got carried by
the defense. You know, they had a soft schedule, they
only beat one team with a winning record, you know
how the whole the whole thing goes. And I go,
what do you make of bon Nicks? And he said,
that dude can lead them to us, that dude can
(17:26):
lead them into playoffs. Like, forget about the defense. That
guy is good enough to lead them in the playoffs.
So there's a really strong football team. Yeah, they're you know,
the lack of experience in the receiver position, a little bit,
a little bit of an unknown in the running back position, JK. Dobbins.
I think R. J. Harvey Doug, I think he's gonna
(17:47):
be if he stays hell they I think he's gonna
be a thousand yard rusher. That guy is dynamic, he
is tough, and he's learning how to run in a system.
So it's it's pretty like, it's pretty exciting in Denver.
People are pretty pretty stoked about this football team.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Obviously, bo Nick's you know, a ton of experience in
college and then he's playing for a quarterback whisper and
in Sean Payton. But sometimes that second year is more
difficult because the playbook is bigger, the expectations grow, and
yet you still really only have one year in the league. Right.
Where is bo Nix in his kind of evolution as
(18:24):
a quarterback.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
Yeah, I think all those things are fair points, you know,
and they've been brought up to Sean a bunch and
Sean basically just you know, sweeps those under the rug
and says not with this kid. This kid is just
that mature and that good and that's smart, and you know,
I think the other thing is Sean understands that second
year and he wants to build off that second year.
(18:46):
But he understands for them to go where they want
to go. You know, it's not just going to be
relying on the defense. They have got to fix the
run game. And that's really what they focused a ton
on this offseason was fixing that running game. And a
lot of it was the talking to the Broncos, talking
to Sean Payton, was the fact that the backs really
(19:07):
didn't understand entry points, mesh points, run of the football.
So it wasn't so much that the plays weren't blocked
efficiently enough. It's that the backs just missed the entry points,
they missed the holes. And it was really funny. The
very first play of the preseason against San Francisco, RJ.
Harvey has a eighteen handoff and it's something that's been
(19:30):
run in this league, hell since I played for the
Denver Broncos. Simple eighteen handoff and he gets about three
yards two and a half three yards two wide and
if he hits the actual entry point, now I've got
it on the Stinking Truth podcast. I actually did a
breakdown on my podcast and you can see it. Like
I tell us, I used the telestrator. If he hits
it where it's supposed to go from an entry point standpoint,
(19:54):
it's a ten to twelve yard run. If he breaks
one tackle or makes a cornerback miss, it's a seventy
yard house call and it's blocked perfectly, and he turns
that twelve yard run into a one yard game because
he's just off that pace. That's the problem they had
last year. That's what they're coaching these backs up on.
(20:14):
And I tell you what, it improved dramatically from preseason
game one to preseason game two. We'll see if they
can still make those strives.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Let's call the Redskins. Sorry, they were the Redskins, and
he played from the Commanders. Okay, and obviously you know
you're part of the Hogs. You're part of the absolute
best of that franchise. Last year, I mean, Jane Daniels was,
I mean, he was the better draft pick than Caleb
Williams and Cliff Kingsbury. System worked, and then obviously you
have kind of a defensive savant as your head coach.
(20:45):
It all worked. Biggest challenge to the Commanders this season is.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
What I really think it's. I really think it's the
Terry McLaurin situation, Like there comes a time when that
just creates bad juju in the locker room, and they've
done everything right, from getting Reddi Schneider to bringing in
Dan Quinn. Dan corn is not just a defensive guru,
but that guy is That guy is just a guy
(21:12):
you want to play for. He is just an incredible
motivator and an incredible connector of people, and so like,
I think that was one of the strong suits. Obviously,
Jayden Daniels was tremendous. Cliff Kingsbury his second goal around
as a play caller, and I had a chance to
sit down with him three or four times last year
(21:33):
as I called Washington games, and he was incredible sitting
down with him talking about what he learned from when
he first got in the league running that you know,
NFL style air raid to what he knows now and
what didn't work and all the things he learned in that,
and I think that was really cool. And then bringing
in Anthony Lynn, former head coach of the Chargers, former
(21:58):
head coach of the Bills. He's a really just a
staunch believer in the run game and that really helped.
That really helped that offense as well. But the Terry
McLaurin thing, Terrys is in the community. He is beloved.
He's beloved in the locker room. He's one of the
most gracious, just the best people you'd ever want to
(22:21):
be around. And when an organization decides that, hey, it's
going to play hardball with a guy like that, eventually
the rest of us that are in that locker room go, well,
they're going to do it to him, They'll do it
to all of us, and it can create some bad juju.
I don't think it's there quite yet, but they're getting close,
and I think they need to figure out a deal
(22:41):
to make him a part of that team. And the
other thing is every time I call one of their games, Doug,
you know, the defensive coordinator on the other side, he's
not talking about, you know, stopping Brian Robinson or one
of the other backs or Jayden Daniels as much as
they are talking about we got to shut down McLaurin
because it doesn't matter who the back or who the
quarterback is. That dude is a twelve hundred yard you know,
(23:03):
eighty five nineties reception guy every single year.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Micah Parsons, what do you do through the Cowboys?
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Well, if I was a Cowboys, I'd have had him
signed two years ago, like, id of taken care of
my business. You gotta sign him. He's like, you knew
this is the problem with the Cowboys. You knew when
he was a rookie, d he was a superstar. You
knew how good the guy was. And the fact that
you shuffle your feet and you push it off and
you push it off and you delay it and you
(23:35):
delay it, like what are you guys doing? And ultimately
what it does is it costs you more money and
doesn't allow you to participate in free agency to its fullest.
That's why this Dallas Cowboys done a great job drafting,
but they don't participate in free agency. Why because they
always wait till the eleventh hour to sign Hey, Dak Prescott,
(23:57):
wait till the first game of the season before you
sign him. And now Michael Parson is the same situation.
So I mean it's already that ship is sale. They're
not gonna get him signed early, obviously, but I mean,
you've got to sign the guy. You got to make
him the highest paid defensive player in football. And I
know they don't want to, but that's what you're gonna
have to do.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I don't know if they don't want to because they
had a deal. I don't understand the cutting out the agent.
I do understand the agent has pissed, But at the
end of the day, you got to get this thing done.
He's got to he's he's got to play some football.
What about Trey Hendrickson, he's a little bit longer in
the two. You know, the Bengals don't negotiate in public,
but now they're shopping him as well. But he does
(24:38):
need to play this year. So at what point do
you come off of your negotiating horse saying, Hey, I'm
just gonna play this year and then I'll be a
free agent next year if we can't get the deal done.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah, well he is. He's come out to my knowledge
and staid I'm not going to play without a new deal.
And so I think, you know, on Monday Night Football
and they were talking about everything has been agreed to
it with least as Salters on the report, I believe
everything's been agreed to except you know, the upfront money,
which is obviously the total guarantee is the most important part.
So nothing's really been agreed to if that hasn't been
(25:07):
agreed to. So you know that one is a little
sticky situation. But you look at the Bengals right now,
just the way they're structured, and there's part of me
I just look at Joe Burrow and go, you guys
just waste You're wasting one of the great quarterbacks in
all of the NFL. I think he's the best quarterback
in football. And you know, I know, you sign wide
receivers and everybody gets, you know, all excited about that.
(25:29):
But your scheme and your system. One, your scheme doesn't
protect the defense because you're always in shotgun, you're always
throwing the ball. And then you know, your system allows
Joe Burrow to take a ton of hits. And I
just hate the way they're structured. I hate the way
they operate as an organization. And then you know, you
take your best defensive player and say, hey man, we're
(25:51):
you know, we're gonna play hardball with you, even though
you've led the league in sacks the last two years
at seventeen and a half both years. So again, it's
just one of those Bengal things, you know, like you're
just gonna screw this thing up, aren't you.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
How is Renegade Fantasy different from other apps? Different from
other fantasy places.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Well, I think it's I think it's really cool because
they had been working on this for several years and
you know, getting the technology and then getting you know,
getting the patent and all that stuff on it. It's
it's in game substitution. So if you go to uh,
you go to Mark Schlere dot Renegade Fantasy dot com,
you can join my league, but you can substitute in
(26:32):
the middle of the middle of the game. Your quarterback's
not playing well, you got to back up on the bench,
you can substitute them out. Guy gets injured, substitute them
out and uh. And so that's how Renegade Fantasy works.
So it's no longer that player's fault that you lost
your fantasy matchup. You've got the opportunity to sub out
anybody on your roster. Uh. It just makes it's just
(26:53):
a game change or with having the ability to do
that and manage your football team throughout Sunday, throughout each
and every week of Sunday.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
It's awesome. By the way. You can download the Renegade
Renegade Fantasy app from the App Store and Google Play today.
Cash prizes are available in Mark Schlere's Mark's stinkin truth

a game with Ilo.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
This is game time on the Doug Gottlieb Show.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Well, you got there, Isaac longcro.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Well, Doug, we got two choices today, for better or worse?
Recapping your top story. For better or worse? The future
of Anthony Richardson or the future of Daniel Jones. Not
about the lesser two evils there by the.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Way, which one's better? I mean, Dan, the future of
Daniel Jones is better than the future of Anthony Richardson.
You know, it just is. He's a better passer and
he's gonna get a shot. So I'm gonna go. Future
of Anthony Richardson, I mean, the future of Daniel Jones
is better. Future of Anthony richard is worse.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
Okay, Next, for better or Worse? We got a pair
of c w's for you. For better or worse? Cam
Ward or Caleb Williams.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Wown right, So for better or worse? Cam Ward or
Kayleb Williams. I'm gonna go, well, ye, I'm gonna go
Kayleb Williams. I think Kayleb Williams. I mean I watched
cam Ward play a ton a really talented player. I
think he's older than Caleb Williams, even though he came
(31:04):
out a year behind him, but he's still there was
some decision making that left something to be desired last year.
At times when he's with the Miami Hurricanes, Caleb is
he's more like an Aaron Rodgers type. You know, he's
not that big, but does have the arm strength, does
(31:24):
have the mobility, has a creativity. Not easy to coach,
but I would go to Caleb Williams.
Speaker 5 (31:31):
And also it certainly helps it appears to have Ben
Johnson in his corner this year.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
All right.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
Next item for QB two of the Cleveland Browns for
better or Worse, Dylan Gabriel or Shadoor Sanders.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I think you gotta go Dylan Gabriel. I think Dylan
Gabriel is more wired to be a backup. He's they
both played a ton of football. Shoudure. In order for
the fifth round to beat out the throne, you have
to be so much better, and I'm guessing he hasn't been.
(32:12):
I don't know if they called a better game this
past weekend, but it definitely looked like a better offense
with Dylan Gabriel, although they've had more time together. But
all things being equal, I think Dalan Gabriel gets the
first shot out.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
All right, So we've gone with some quarterbacks here. Let's
move on to some teams Aaron Rodgers' former team or
Aaron rodgers new team for better or worse this season?
The New York Jets or the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
The Pittsburgh Steelers elite defense. And I don't think Aaron
Rodgers will be great, but I think the key stat
for Aaron Rodgers always he does not turn the football over.
Don't turn the football over, give yourself a chance to
win every game. I'm gonna go with Pittsburg Steelers are.
Speaker 5 (32:56):
Better for better or worse in the AFE West. I
think this is sneakily, very very close. And I say
that as someone fully biased towards one of these teams
for better or worse. The Los Angeles Chargers or the
Denver Broncos.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Chargers. I think they have
a better quarterback. I think the Broncos defense is a
little bit better, but the Chargers defense is improving. Obviously,
you lose your starting left tackle, that's not great. I
still think the Chargers are further long.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
God, I hope you're right all right. Onto college football.
So one team that has an incoming legendary head coach
and another program that it is going into its second
year after the departure of a legendary head coach better
or worse than twenty twenty five North Carolina.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Or what not?
Speaker 5 (33:58):
An Alabama.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
Better worse in terms of how good they are or record.
Speaker 5 (34:05):
Because is good, I would say one of the one
of the same.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Yeah, I don't think that's the same. But Alabama, Alabama
across the board, it's looks seventy new players is hard.
At North Carolina, it's just hard and his first time
coaching in college and he has seventy new players. I
don't care how down the ACC is in comparison. I'll
take Alabama. I'll take I think Alabama will be better.
Speaker 5 (34:31):
Okay, And our final item on this edition for better
or worse kind of a preview of coming attractions with
what we're going to talk about in a little bit.
But today, August the twentieth, twenty twenty five, happens to
be National Radio Day. Yes, we get our own day,
(34:54):
waiting for all the freebies, all the perks, preferred parking,
you know, discounts on various things. So it's I guess
a topic of conversation in today's media landscape for better
or worse radio or podcasts.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Wow, I am a radio guy. This is where I
cut my teeth. I love it. I think there's an
art to doing it. It doesn't mean there's not an
art to a podcast. But can I'll be edited live
radio is? I don't know. It just makes my heart
my heart full. So radio better than podcasts.
Speaker 5 (35:30):
Okay, And one additional note before we close out this edition,
one last thing, Isaac.
Speaker 4 (35:37):
Yeah, he said radio's better, right, Doug, Yes, because your
live show can then be turned into a podcast, which you.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Can download at the end of the show. Wherever you
download podcasts, just type in Doug Gottley, make sure you
follow rate review it, give us a good review, Tell
him Jasu, who's awesome?
Speaker 5 (35:54):
Okay, go ahead, No, that's right. I'm not making any
of this up. But among other things that addition to
being National Radio Day. Today is also National Chocolate Pecan
Pie Day. It is also National Bacon Lover's Day.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
Nice.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Is there people that don't like bacon?
Speaker 5 (36:16):
They're literally cannot I mean, I suppose like vegetarians and vegans,
but and for religious purposes. Oh that's true.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
Yeah it listen it uh Radio National Bacon Day same day.
Speaker 5 (36:33):
That that and National Chocolate Pecan Pie Day.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
I remember, like fifteen years ago, this whole National Something
Day was never a thing. I don't know who who's
the Who's the Wizard of Who's the wizard of No,
it's never been Yes, it has. Twenty years ago, we
never heard about National Bloom Day.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
Hear about it because we didn't have the internet. We
had we've had internet for it, had it on the
ap wire and morning rock radio shows. Who's Booming? So
it's up rock school Retch Star Red Star told me
that it's new chocolate peacan put.
Speaker 4 (37:06):
It's National Dirty Underwear Day.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Yay.
Speaker 5 (37:08):
Actually looking at a news article, this is a Getty
Images archive photo. Google mo Marconi celebrates National Radio Day
in nineteen twenty five. So allright, by the way, I
just completely five. I just completely made that up.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
By the way, all right, I was just gonna say it,
hundredth anniversary.
Speaker 5 (37:26):
It is also National Accessible Air Travel Day. I'm not
sure what the distinction is there. Unfortunately, air travel seems
to be less and less accessible generally.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
And finally, you know, we have.
Speaker 5 (37:40):
Bacon Day, Chocolate pecan Pie Day, and Radio Day.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Down with the pecan pie.
Speaker 5 (37:45):
Yes, but apparently to balance all that out, I'm not
making this up. Today is World Mosquito Day.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
Really.
Speaker 5 (37:55):
I was viciously and mercilessly attacked by a band of
mangie mosquitoes just the other day, and now I find
out that I have to share National Radio Day with mosquitos.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
A band of mosquitoes, ladies and gentlemen, the mosquitoes. They're
attacking Isaac's ankles.
Speaker 1 (38:15):
Yeah, the mosquito ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
Mosquitoes.
Speaker 5 (38:20):
Why do mosquitoes get their own day?
Speaker 4 (38:23):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
I don't know. But I was in bed last night
and I think there was a mosquito and I could
hear in.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
My ear, you know, the yeah, what's the worst one's
trapped in the room with you.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
And that concludes that edition, in which I'm sure listeners
learned a lot more than they knew of for Better
or Worse.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
Game.
Speaker 3 (38:45):
This is game time on the Dug Gottleap Show.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
It's the Doug gott Leap Show here on Fox Sports Radio.
It is National Radio Day, it is, so we're going

Ilo and Uh Sammy's. That's up coming next to The
