Jason Smith’s advice to Bears head coach Ben Johnson: Don't apologize for the passing game not being elite the last few weeks. Bears have the best record in the NFC. Be the guy who ripped his shirt off in the locker room, not someone apologizing for winning. Plus, a different take on Mike Tomlin!

We're minutes away from Oklahoma and Golden State. Let's go
maybe ten minutes away, maybe maybe twenty five maybe maybe
you got to celebrate the current champions, the defending champions,
(01:10):
and the legacy in history that he is the Golden
State Warriors. I mean, people need a full primer. Oh yeah, yeah,
you need one of those big Marv albertiz is going.
And the Oklahoma City Thunder, thanks to shake gilis Alexander.
You know when I started Oklahoma City, no one even
knew where it was on the map. Shake Gil just Alexander.
No one wanted him. The Clippers let him go. Now
(01:32):
look where he is. I don't know any of these players.
I'm done, and the Oklahoma City Thunder will have a
top ten pick, maybe the number one pick overall, because
the Clippers can't get out of their own way? So
what do we do for the voiceover? I mean Tom
Hanks has a new play that nobody seems to like.
Does he get on there and show for it? Because
he was a Bay Area guy? Do you get a hammer?
(01:52):
We're ready for Oklahoma City. They have a team that
is that is sensational news. They have a team Golden Stone.
Why Golden State. They weren't terrible in the nineties. Oh
now they're good. Okay, Well, we have this game that
people tell me is good. Enjoy it. Don't you going
to get ai a? I'm Marv Albert Did you say
(02:13):
stuff like that? Well he might be. I mean there
are a bunch of actors that have sold the rights
to their their their voices for perpetuity for their families
to keep drawing checks. Like Michael Kine did that. I
don't know which version of Michael Kine. How do you
don't do the broken voice? What do you uh? Now?
Two head coaches spoke today and in the last twenty
(02:34):
four hours, both of them probably shouldn't have. Let's deal
with Mike Tomlin first and foremost things are bad in Pittsburgh.
How bad are they now? The whispers for Mike Tomlin
being fired or there fans booing him. They booed when
they played Renegade in the fourth quarter on side. I mean,
(02:56):
when you're booing during Renegade, you know, Okay, we got
to look in the mirror and we got to clean
some things up. Mike Tomlin and his time with the
Steelers has never looked closer to being up than it
does right now now. Mike Tomlins normally defiant. You know,
when someone says something, you're on the opposite side of him.
He stands in there. Man, he's got you are not
gonna say bad stuff about me. I am the biggest,
(03:19):
baddest guy on the block right here. I am the
man here. You are not gonna say that about me.
Except today when he was asked about people booing form
and calling for his firing. Well, this is what Mike
Tomlin said.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Man, I share their frustration tonight. Man, we didn't do enough.
That's just the reality of it. I don't know. I'm
restless and frustrated. I was, and so I assume they
were in the same state we were in. I'm restless
and frustrated I was, and so I assume they were
in the same state we were in.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
So again, wrestless and frustrated, same state. You know what,
They weren't in the same state as Aaron Rodgers was in. No, no, no,
he was in a different state. Yeah, he was in
a completely different state. He was on the East coast
and they were on the West coast. Look, Mike Tomlin
has been a great head coach for a long time.
He's still a good head coach. He's been in Pittsburgh
(04:08):
a long time. He has made decisions the last couple
of years that have held the team back, specifically the
quarterback decisions. And to give you a little bit of
a different take on Mike Tomlin, this is at the
end of the year where I come in and I say, Okay,
we're going to get a big quarterback. Now, I don't
(04:29):
know why you don't want us to go take a
big swing at a quarterback. The last couple of years
you wanted to go bargain basement shopping for Justin Fields
and Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers. We are going to
get a quarterback. If you're not on board with that,
then we can figure something out. Have a great parting
of the ways press conference. Well, thank you for all
years of service. But the Steelers need the Steelers need
(04:50):
to get modern, man. I mean the Steelers are that
casino from the cooler, where, hey, yeah, we made five
million dollars last year. The casino down the block made
fifty billion dollars last year. Now we're still the old
school casino that there employees, coolers and and it takes
you back to old Vegas, right like uh Vegas. No,
that that's the Pittsburgh Steelers are the the the the
(05:11):
the casino from the cooler, and Ron Livingson coming in
and say, hey, we got to jazz some things up.
We gotta make things happen. Got and Alec Bowan. No, no, no,
we're old Vegas. We're good. We're good. No, you're not good.
You're not in the modern National Football League. You're not.
Who's the Maria Bello in this situation? Uh, that's Aaron Rodgers.
So you have you have that. You have the meeting
(05:33):
and say listen, this is what we're doing. And Omar
Cohn's got to come and say, listen, we are going
to get a quarterback. We're gonna give him a lot
of money, and he's gonna come in here. And I
know you've had to manage a lot of egos. I
know it hasn't been the easiest time here with Roethlisberger
and Antonio Brown and Le'Veon bell. I get that, and
I get you have a little bit of Bill Belichick
in you where Hey, I want to kind of win
(05:54):
where I can mold the players around how I want it.
I don't want big stars. I want to be able
to win with a bunch of guys, go out and
play like robots. You know, this is what I want
to do. But if you're not, if you're not up
for this, if you're up for us moving into a
modern era, then we will have a press conference the
end of the season. We will thank you. It'll be awesome.
You'll have a new job in twenty four hours. You'll
(06:14):
you'll you'll go coach up, go take the Browns job,
because Kevin Stefanski might wind up talking his way out
of that wherever it's gonna be. You will have a
new job. But we are moving on because Mike Tomlin
and the Steelers can't go on like this. They can't
go on in an era of football that everybody else
has passed them by. Even the Browns are running a
(06:35):
more modern era of football. Hey, we're gonna start some
rookies and get some youtha. I mean, the Browns are
doing more modern things than the Steelers are. The brown
I just wish in this grand scheme of things, Deshaun
Watson was inching George's health to where they had a
decision to make just add another layer of chaos there
in Cleveland, Caause remember that still has shaped everything they've done,
(06:59):
so it's not in a vacuum. It still goes back
to you. We're still paying that guy, right and whatever
he's showed up as a mentor in whatever his relationship
with Shador is what it is. You look at their
twenty twenty five active roster for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ready
to have some fun. TJ. Watt cap hit twenty three
point four, Cameron Hayward twenty two point eight, Alex heigh
(07:22):
Smith eighteen point six, Patrick Queen seventeen point seven. You
see the theme I'm getting new here. This is they're
a worse version of the forty nine ers when the
Niners were paying all those guys fifteen million dollars a
year low. But you at least still had some guys
on the offensive side that can be an impact player
for you. Mike Tomlin doesn't want to play offense, no,
but but that's he don't want to run the football.
(07:43):
He'd like to have his defense out there for four
quarters and when the defense makes a play, we get
a point, and we hope if they throw an incomplete pass,
we get a half a point if we if a
running play happens and it's less than three yards, it's
a half a point. But that's not on. It goes
back to the uneasy and look is big at. One
of his biggest critics at this point is Ben Roethlisberger,
who doesn't care his legacy secure you either love that
(08:04):
guy or you don't. Obviously he's got the off field
that still sits in the background and all of that
to say, but you got the benefit of his forty
five hundred yards a year and the fact that the
guy could not be tackled right, he would not go down.
It would extend plays, and you brought in the cavalcade
(08:24):
of stars, the wide receivers until they hit their tipping point.
Each guy had a little different timeline, but it all
ended terribly with the exception of hines Ward, who outran
bands explosives. Outside of that, everybody else had a bad run.
He really hines Ward outrunning I mean, come on, well,
you gotta suspend. That's the most disbelieving pa. That's right,
(08:45):
heines Ward. If he stood in and blocked that gaping hole.
First of all, he's out running everybody on the field
to get a touchdown, and he's also out running all
the big holes to day is blowing into I meant,
come on, man, you already lost me. That he's going
to run a kickoff back for a touchdown. Really, Ward
really is the thing. Though the rest of the Batman
love an audience, they didn't know who heines Ward was
(09:06):
he might have been an actor, But all I'm trying
to say is he lucked into an era where you
had a guy that when you needed him to score
thirty points, it's scoring you thirty points. Yeah, And this
becomes a question of how much power he's wielded to
decide who the central figure was there versus battling the GMS,
versus ownership because convincing them as I just read that off,
(09:30):
what was that thirty six and forty five? MAT's seventy
six million dollars wrapped up in four defenders? Queen's pretty young.
Heinsmith's what twenty eight? And then you got thirty six
and TJ. Watt is now an old thirty one, right,
So you just go on down the line from there.
Aaron Rodgers comes in fifth at fourteen million. For those
(09:51):
keeping tracking home, your next leading guy after that is
Friar Mooth. Okay, so that's where your money spent. So
that's a whole other power thing. He's signed through twelve
twenty seven, so he has trade value. Yeah sure, oh yeah,
this is this is one there's gonna be multiple teams
and if it's in division, like maybe you can hold
I mean Jimmy Hasl has shown the propensity to do
(10:13):
some dumb things you might be able to. Dolphins will
trade for him. Sure, there's teams will Mike McDaniel's not
going anywhere. He's a wizard. I think they would get
game one four out of five. I think they. I
think they'd be Okay. Let's say, hey, well we're gonna
pair him together. That might be the greatest comedy act
in football. And it would be like, you don't go
past this line on the sideline, and I don't go
(10:33):
past that line. If you stay on that side, I
stay on this. Two of the most animated coaches that
we've ever seen brought together for the first time. So yeah,
you have to have that sit down with Mike Tomlin
because you got to get into this century of football. Meanwhile,
your guy, Ben Johnson, I just have advice for my guy.
It's a pretty hot dog day, baby. I'm advice for
Ben Jonson, right, guy ripping his shirt off in the
(10:55):
locker room Sunday. Uh. The Bears have the best record
in the NFL. They won on Sunday on the strength
of their running game. Their defense is getting turnovers all year.
The passing game has been alternately good. Some weeks it
hasn't been great, but Caleb Williams always finds a way
to make plays at the end of the game when
they need to. He was asked about the lack of
(11:16):
production from the passing game, and Ben Johnson said this
on Sunday, everybody's got a role to play to get
this pass game cleaned up. We're winning in spite of
our passing game, not because of it. None of us
are pleased with that right now. Ooh, wait a minute.
Then Tuesday, Ben Johnson realized, oh, hang on, we have
the best record in the NFC. Why the hell am
(11:37):
I apologizing for anything? And he says, quote, I think
when I made that comment, it's easy to construe it
as I'm not happy with the quarterback. That's not the
case whatsoever. Caleb Williams continues to get better each and
every week, and I couldn't be more pleased with how
he played last week. Now, are there elements of truth
to what he said? Hundred percent? Can you win like
(11:57):
this over the long haul if you're passing game isn't
at a more optimal level? Of course, not right, you
need that, But this is where the advice for Ben Johnson,
be that guy that ripped his shirt off in the
locker room. When you get a question about the offense,
the passing game not going on, you say, we're nine
and three. It's hard to win in the NFL. We
ran for five hundred yards today against a really good defense.
(12:17):
Next question, right, what what do you want from us?
What do you want? Don't apologize for wins? I mean,
why is he a pol And? This is this is
part of Chicago. We gotta find stuff that to be
mad about. We can't just be happy. We had to
find stuff to be mad about. And this is where
I feel. I feel attacked you. I felt a taxed
(12:39):
right that I was a personal attack. But to say city, yes,
you stared me directly through my soul as you said,
well I'm talking to you and and and yeah, there
is part of that because I do, yeah you do. Okay, Yes,
take that personally, have the ipat and I wanted Mike
Carmen to take that person You get no more uh
go cheese. But your harmon brought in goat cheese tonight.
(13:01):
That's not a euphemism for anything. He did bring in
goat cheese. This is it. This is if you're Ben Johnson,
you just simply say, yeah, hard to one in the NFL.
We're happy. We ran for two hundred and fifty yards.
Kyle was great, DeAndre was great. Nine and three, we're
pretty happy right now. We're focused on the next game.
Don't apologize. That's say, don't give don't give oxygen to
the fact that why are you put If you were
(13:23):
five and six and you were falling out of the playog, yeah,
I understand that much. But you're nine and three, man,
I mean what your offense knows? Catill Williams, Oh, he's
got to get it going. The rest of the offense knows,
we gotta get it going, right, Well, what do you do? It?
D be that guy that ripped your shirt off. It's funny, right,
so they're already laughing saying they should make a statue
of it. He did that in front of the hot
dog stand where they gave away free hot dogs again
(13:47):
and if you took your shirt off. I really don't
know how that worked with the females in the crowd,
but either way, they had their He was ravishing Rick Rude.
I'd like to invite all the husbands watching to turn
away women take your cameras as I'm gonna take off
my room and get ready to get in the ring.
And then with show women. Actually not absolutely, Yeah, he's
(14:08):
kind of a big deal. But all of that to say,
I agree with you, like the honesty has to be
pulled back, right, don't feed in, don't get like it's there,
and you're I think on some level you're trying to
cut off the next ten questions that are come from it,
because remember, a lot of that is not gonna be
just local media. At this point, you got what the
(14:30):
folks on the score have long referred to as out
of town stupid. You've read the box score, you've seen
three highlights, you haven't watched these games, you haven't watched
any of the flow. And you see, oh, you only
pass for one hundred and fifty yards, and you know,
here's this completion percentage. Well, it's like when you used
to take tests at school. If you only throw the
ball eighteen times and you throw four incompletions, what's that
(14:52):
completion Percentage's gonna look like it's gonna be pretty poor,
isn't it? Kind of like those quizzes like a gully
got like a seventy percent. I got three out of
the ten. Yeah it was ten. It wasn't a thirty
question quiz. That's the way this works. So same thing
with some of the Caleb Williams numbers. Has he been great? No,
And anybody that's watched Possession of Possession, you recognize that
(15:15):
there's still room to grow, but you're winning. You're winning.
And for Ben Johnson, I think some of it is
just the not in the wing to Yes, I understand
we're not there, but you also give oxygen to those
that just want to that don't want to like you,
I mean that don't want this to be a real story,
and there's certainly plenty of them out there. Exit up
(15:35):
about a Fresco exit swalling down the Jason Smith Show

have to get into what NFL team had the worst
week this week and it's not even close, and don't
say Cleveland. The Cleveland did not have the worst league.

having with you. I don't know what tighter. He's frantically
looking at a computer. I don't know what he's trying.
You're trying to trying to find out what you know.

think about that? He knows it now? I mean I
know it now.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I knew it.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
I knew it all along. You know why why? Because
it's a horrible movie. It's not a great it's a
good movie. It's not. It's she was kind of an
it girl for a little while, and I like, I
liked her. I'm not gonna say it was because then
you're gonna know. I know the movie because we got
to get this bet locked down. Uh, and she was
good a lot of things. She was good. I liked
a lot of stuff in the nineties, but she was
like an it girl for a little while. But that movie, yeah,
(27:13):
not my not my favorite. I don't like you. Not
my favorite. You know what, though, that wouldn't be nearly
as controversial as what Quentin Tarantino had to say. Uh what, Oh,
my final movie is coming up, so I know you're
all waiting for me to do my final movie called
My Man from There will be blood the quote weakest
male actor in SAG. Wow, Well what Daniel day Lewis

let's go bowling together. The other guy he starts, He
starts calling Eli. Do you know market zero Eli? He
called the the weakest actor in SAG Paul Dano. Yeah,
so it chills. There will be blood for him? Really, well,
I think there will be blood. Was killed when they decided, oh,
we're gonna make the guy twins?
Speaker 2 (27:57):
What? What?
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Why? I don't know Whi's gonna make them twins? Why?
I think I have to see this movie a second time?
Did I see a second? Was that supposed to be? Huh? Yeah?
That was like, really, you made him a twin the
first half of the movie was great. I was into it.
Oh yeah, yeah, and and and and his character and
Daniel day Lewis was great, and the scenes at the
end were fantastic. The milkshake scene was so good. I
(28:20):
believe you just took Alex's milkshak. The remake of the
milkshake that became a viral video like a song, was
as good as a gout Alex, We're excited. That's going
to come all the way into your bank account and
drink your milkshake and drain it for wings and fries
(28:40):
tomorrow night, all right, Jacon I was frankly on the computer. Yeah, well,
trying to see if that song was in another movie.
That's it was with Jennifer Aniston, short film from the
UK that we've never heard of. It was in nos Feritu,
(29:00):
the nineteen twenty two version of it. Uh so it's
the sequel, And that's fair to Havering. Yes, they hate
the coloring in between the Havering the Havering Haing. Uh
do it?
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Do it?
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Do you have a bet? Alex Ticher, Come on, come on,
TikTok lerices. I'd much rather bet on the IMDb rating,
which No, this is the bet. This is the bet.
Can't do it, this is the bet. Wow, you're so weak.

(33:57):
Listen to that bass doom doo doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo Do do do do do?
Speaker 3 (34:01):
Do?
Speaker 1 (34:05):
They put my song into New Stranger Things. I hope
to make money because Kate Bush made cash for that
horrible song. My song's better than HER's by a mile.
I never want to hear that running up that hill again.
No on the on the bus side, No, no, no, done.
(34:28):
But in defense was original cover. It doesn't matter. She
made it her own. It's a bad song that nobody
knew except for whatever producer on that show. This song
was so much because I cried to this song just
like Sadie Sink didn't. It was so much to be
you knew it was No, the song was stupid. It
got you into under the Hall of Fame. It's I
(34:51):
know either way? Are we are we going to try
to get Tiffany back on the show? Amazing? I've actually
talked to Tiffany on multiple shows. Stink this part of
the fan see Freaks back in the day she came
on an episode. This aggression will not stand man. I'd
love to get Tiffany back on the show. We'll work
on that. Uh Now, who had the worst week in
(35:12):
the NFL? You did? No? I had a great we
I had a great last few minutes because I got
Benny and June right, So I'm getting free wings from
you to your jets side. Yeah. No, we won on Sunday?
Did you really? Well? We? All right? Now that's a
little that's a little existential, Okay, all right, all right,
all right? But did you win? Thoughts don't really win? No,
(35:35):
I don't think we really won. Positive What do invisible
wings taste like? They taste like disappointment? That's what they
taste like. Uh, well that's what you're getting tomorrow, tight
shirts buying them? Yeah, invisible wings. The worst week without
a doubt, the Philadelphia Eagles. This is a team that
(35:59):
weekly looks like they could be runaway Super Bowl champion,
and then they look like they did last week, which
is they can't wait for the season to end. And
this version and this is why they had the worst
week of anybody because this because after this week, the
Eagles remind me more of the twenty twenty three version
(36:20):
of the team coming off the Super Bowl in twenty
two where they had all the issues and they ran
out of gas at the end of the coordinators pasted
by the Bucks in the playoffs. It was a huge
upset win for them. They look more like that team
that was waiting for the season to end, because that's
kind of how I feel like they are now. They're
waiting for the season to end. People allegedly hate Jalen Hurts,
(36:41):
they hate aj Brown, they don't like the offensive coordinator.
Things aren't working that no one likes the media. It
just seems like this is a year where, you know, hey,
when we're in a good mood on Sunday, we get out,
we play well, but that doesn't happen all the time.
And if we don't feel like it, we don't feel
like it. We're just waiting for the season to end.
That's why this is so bad, because they've gone from
(37:02):
just two three weeks ago was man. The Eagles are
just reminding everybody despite all this controversy. Are we eat
during controversy? We eat? We feed off of controversy. Now
that I feel like this is a team that they're
just going through the motions. They're they're counting down till
the end of the year. Right after Santa comes down
the chimney, we got New Year's Eve, the season's over
(37:23):
enough to see anybody for like four months like that.
That's where the Eagles are right now. They have gone
from there right there with the with the Super Bowl
contenders to right now it's they'll lose their first playoff game.
They lose their first playoff game twenty nine to nine.
Like I can see that happening because they look like
a team that's just waiting for the season to end. Now.
First off, I want all those vandals, that's just an
(37:44):
act of vandalism. I want them strung up by their
Buster Browns. What they did do coordinator Patulo's home. I mean,
that's just wrong. It's not his fault. They were up
twenty to one nothing against the Cowboy. Yeah. Yeah, their
defense got run over. Yeah, their offense wasn't on the
field enough to be blamed for anything. This week Bears
had like thirty nine minutes of possession. You stop them.
(38:07):
It was like looking at a college football game from
like nineteen fifty three. What do you have? Well, they
ran the ball eight hundred times, mister inside, mister outside.
By Lot Williams threw the ball twice on Sunday. I
mean really, Like I said, you got a very short
menu when you're talking about your test. Right, it's right,
it's right or wrong. You got two questions, you get
(38:28):
one wrong. You lose big Monday night game against the Chargers,
will be on air for that. Then you got the Raiders,
Then you've got the Commanders. That's the undercard for the
Bears and the Packers. The Eagles take on the Bills
the following week, and then the Commanders again to finish
the season off. I realized at this point, I don't
(38:50):
think it matters because it's just now it's December. This
was the week where hey, we need to get better
after that last week, and it's still just got worse.
And a defense that looked like it was a super
Bowl caliber defense, suddenly the Bears ran over you without
even throwing the football, not like they're not not like
the look I told you how good the Bears offense is.
(39:10):
People underestimate. But they didn't even throw the football and
they they got manhandled. Like that's an emasculating way to
lose a game where not one guy, two guys, doesn't
matter who runs the foot, but it's going against the
team that watched their offense do that to teams all
last year. Now that's all that's the question for the
OC and for Sirianni is you know, I know Lane
(39:31):
Johnson's been hurt, and I know they've they've had some
issues on the offensive line, but there are games they're
not even trying against Saquon Barkley the ball Is he hurt?
Is he because you went and traded for for Bigsby?
That guy had some juice? Why is he not on
the field, Like like there's no effort there at all
to try to jumpstart the run game. To at least
(39:51):
keep your defense from tripping over their tongues in the
second half. This is this is more where they'll find
a way. They'll make the playoffs, and they'll play that
first game and the vibes will be bad and they'll
go home and it'll be what's wrong with the Eagles?
And and and this is where next year they'll come
back out house a fire and they'll make changes. They
(40:12):
won't have a j Brown, They'll bring another, They'll bring
in a new offensive coordinator. They will make change the
Paterson Siriani and send him packing, or they bringing Peterson
to b the OC. Hey, you know I was here
and I did well. You know Chip Kelly's you know,
you know we're all gonna come back here and help you.
But that's who the Eagles are, and they are more
like a team. They'll lose that first playoff game, then
(40:32):
I think they can make it to the NFC title game.
It's a miserable, miserable slog, right, I mean, you're coming
off a Super Bowl and just like that it got
noisy and bad, really fast exit out about a Fresco
exit swollen dome coming up next. A new twist to
the lane Kiffin story Fox,

We're minutes away from Oklahoma and Golden State. Let's go
maybe ten minutes away, maybe maybe twenty five maybe maybe
you got to celebrate the current champions, the defending champions,
(01:10):
and the legacy in history that he is the Golden
State Warriors. I mean, people need a full primer. Oh yeah, yeah,
you need one of those big Marv albertiz is going.
And the Oklahoma City Thunder, thanks to shake gilis Alexander.
You know when I started Oklahoma City, no one even
knew where it was on the map. Shake Gil just Alexander.
No one wanted him. The Clippers let him go. Now
(01:32):
look where he is. I don't know any of these players.
I'm done, and the Oklahoma City Thunder will have a
top ten pick, maybe the number one pick overall, because
the Clippers can't get out of their own way? So
what do we do for the voiceover? I mean Tom
Hanks has a new play that nobody seems to like.
Does he get on there and show for it? Because
he was a Bay Area guy? Do you get a hammer?
(01:52):
We're ready for Oklahoma City. They have a team that
is that is sensational news. They have a team Golden Stone.
Why Golden State. They weren't terrible in the nineties. Oh
now they're good. Okay, Well, we have this game that
people tell me is good. Enjoy it. Don't you going
to get ai a? I'm Marv Albert Did you say
(02:13):
stuff like that? Well he might be. I mean there
are a bunch of actors that have sold the rights
to their their their voices for perpetuity for their families
to keep drawing checks. Like Michael Kine did that. I
don't know which version of Michael Kine. How do you
don't do the broken voice? What do you uh? Now?
Two head coaches spoke today and in the last twenty
(02:34):
four hours, both of them probably shouldn't have. Let's deal
with Mike Tomlin first and foremost things are bad in Pittsburgh.
How bad are they now? The whispers for Mike Tomlin
being fired or there fans booing him. They booed when
they played Renegade in the fourth quarter on side. I mean,
(02:56):
when you're booing during Renegade, you know, Okay, we got
to look in the mirror and we got to clean
some things up. Mike Tomlin and his time with the
Steelers has never looked closer to being up than it
does right now now. Mike Tomlins normally defiant. You know,
when someone says something, you're on the opposite side of him.
He stands in there. Man, he's got you are not
gonna say bad stuff about me. I am the biggest,
(03:19):
baddest guy on the block right here. I am the
man here. You are not gonna say that about me.
Except today when he was asked about people booing form
and calling for his firing. Well, this is what Mike
Tomlin said.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Man, I share their frustration tonight. Man, we didn't do enough.
That's just the reality of it. I don't know. I'm
restless and frustrated. I was, and so I assume they
were in the same state we were in. I'm restless
and frustrated I was, and so I assume they were
in the same state we were in.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
So again, wrestless and frustrated, same state. You know what,
They weren't in the same state as Aaron Rodgers was in. No, no, no,
he was in a different state. Yeah, he was in
a completely different state. He was on the East coast
and they were on the West coast. Look, Mike Tomlin
has been a great head coach for a long time.
He's still a good head coach. He's been in Pittsburgh
(04:08):
a long time. He has made decisions the last couple
of years that have held the team back, specifically the
quarterback decisions. And to give you a little bit of
a different take on Mike Tomlin, this is at the
end of the year where I come in and I say, Okay,
we're going to get a big quarterback. Now, I don't
(04:29):
know why you don't want us to go take a
big swing at a quarterback. The last couple of years
you wanted to go bargain basement shopping for Justin Fields
and Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers. We are going to
get a quarterback. If you're not on board with that,
then we can figure something out. Have a great parting
of the ways press conference. Well, thank you for all
years of service. But the Steelers need the Steelers need
(04:50):
to get modern, man. I mean the Steelers are that
casino from the cooler, where, hey, yeah, we made five
million dollars last year. The casino down the block made
fifty billion dollars last year. Now we're still the old
school casino that there employees, coolers and and it takes
you back to old Vegas, right like uh Vegas. No,
that that's the Pittsburgh Steelers are the the the the
(05:11):
the casino from the cooler, and Ron Livingson coming in
and say, hey, we got to jazz some things up.
We gotta make things happen. Got and Alec Bowan. No, no, no,
we're old Vegas. We're good. We're good. No, you're not good.
You're not in the modern National Football League. You're not.
Who's the Maria Bello in this situation? Uh, that's Aaron Rodgers.
So you have you have that. You have the meeting
(05:33):
and say listen, this is what we're doing. And Omar
Cohn's got to come and say, listen, we are going
to get a quarterback. We're gonna give him a lot
of money, and he's gonna come in here. And I
know you've had to manage a lot of egos. I
know it hasn't been the easiest time here with Roethlisberger
and Antonio Brown and Le'Veon bell. I get that, and
I get you have a little bit of Bill Belichick
in you where Hey, I want to kind of win
(05:54):
where I can mold the players around how I want it.
I don't want big stars. I want to be able
to win with a bunch of guys, go out and
play like robots. You know, this is what I want
to do. But if you're not, if you're not up
for this, if you're up for us moving into a
modern era, then we will have a press conference the
end of the season. We will thank you. It'll be awesome.
You'll have a new job in twenty four hours. You'll
(06:14):
you'll you'll go coach up, go take the Browns job,
because Kevin Stefanski might wind up talking his way out
of that wherever it's gonna be. You will have a
new job. But we are moving on because Mike Tomlin
and the Steelers can't go on like this. They can't
go on in an era of football that everybody else
has passed them by. Even the Browns are running a
(06:35):
more modern era of football. Hey, we're gonna start some
rookies and get some youtha. I mean, the Browns are
doing more modern things than the Steelers are. The brown
I just wish in this grand scheme of things, Deshaun
Watson was inching George's health to where they had a
decision to make just add another layer of chaos there
in Cleveland, Caause remember that still has shaped everything they've done,
(06:59):
so it's not in a vacuum. It still goes back
to you. We're still paying that guy, right and whatever
he's showed up as a mentor in whatever his relationship
with Shador is what it is. You look at their
twenty twenty five active roster for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ready
to have some fun. TJ. Watt cap hit twenty three
point four, Cameron Hayward twenty two point eight, Alex heigh
(07:22):
Smith eighteen point six, Patrick Queen seventeen point seven. You
see the theme I'm getting new here. This is they're
a worse version of the forty nine ers when the
Niners were paying all those guys fifteen million dollars a
year low. But you at least still had some guys
on the offensive side that can be an impact player
for you. Mike Tomlin doesn't want to play offense, no,
but but that's he don't want to run the football.
(07:43):
He'd like to have his defense out there for four
quarters and when the defense makes a play, we get
a point, and we hope if they throw an incomplete pass,
we get a half a point if we if a
running play happens and it's less than three yards, it's
a half a point. But that's not on. It goes
back to the uneasy and look is big at. One
of his biggest critics at this point is Ben Roethlisberger,
who doesn't care his legacy secure you either love that
(08:04):
guy or you don't. Obviously he's got the off field
that still sits in the background and all of that
to say, but you got the benefit of his forty
five hundred yards a year and the fact that the
guy could not be tackled right, he would not go down.
It would extend plays, and you brought in the cavalcade
(08:24):
of stars, the wide receivers until they hit their tipping point.
Each guy had a little different timeline, but it all
ended terribly with the exception of hines Ward, who outran
bands explosives. Outside of that, everybody else had a bad run.
He really hines Ward outrunning I mean, come on, well,
you gotta suspend. That's the most disbelieving pa. That's right,
(08:45):
heines Ward. If he stood in and blocked that gaping hole.
First of all, he's out running everybody on the field
to get a touchdown, and he's also out running all
the big holes to day is blowing into I meant,
come on, man, you already lost me. That he's going
to run a kickoff back for a touchdown. Really, Ward
really is the thing. Though the rest of the Batman
love an audience, they didn't know who heines Ward was
(09:06):
he might have been an actor, But all I'm trying
to say is he lucked into an era where you
had a guy that when you needed him to score
thirty points, it's scoring you thirty points. Yeah, And this
becomes a question of how much power he's wielded to
decide who the central figure was there versus battling the GMS,
versus ownership because convincing them as I just read that off,
(09:30):
what was that thirty six and forty five? MAT's seventy
six million dollars wrapped up in four defenders? Queen's pretty young.
Heinsmith's what twenty eight? And then you got thirty six
and TJ. Watt is now an old thirty one, right,
So you just go on down the line from there.
Aaron Rodgers comes in fifth at fourteen million. For those
(09:51):
keeping tracking home, your next leading guy after that is
Friar Mooth. Okay, so that's where your money spent. So
that's a whole other power thing. He's signed through twelve
twenty seven, so he has trade value. Yeah sure, oh yeah,
this is this is one there's gonna be multiple teams
and if it's in division, like maybe you can hold
I mean Jimmy Hasl has shown the propensity to do
(10:13):
some dumb things you might be able to. Dolphins will
trade for him. Sure, there's teams will Mike McDaniel's not
going anywhere. He's a wizard. I think they would get
game one four out of five. I think they. I
think they'd be Okay. Let's say, hey, well we're gonna
pair him together. That might be the greatest comedy act
in football. And it would be like, you don't go
past this line on the sideline, and I don't go
(10:33):
past that line. If you stay on that side, I
stay on this. Two of the most animated coaches that
we've ever seen brought together for the first time. So yeah,
you have to have that sit down with Mike Tomlin
because you got to get into this century of football. Meanwhile,
your guy, Ben Johnson, I just have advice for my guy.
It's a pretty hot dog day, baby. I'm advice for
Ben Jonson, right, guy ripping his shirt off in the
(10:55):
locker room Sunday. Uh. The Bears have the best record
in the NFL. They won on Sunday on the strength
of their running game. Their defense is getting turnovers all year.
The passing game has been alternately good. Some weeks it
hasn't been great, but Caleb Williams always finds a way
to make plays at the end of the game when
they need to. He was asked about the lack of
(11:16):
production from the passing game, and Ben Johnson said this
on Sunday, everybody's got a role to play to get
this pass game cleaned up. We're winning in spite of
our passing game, not because of it. None of us
are pleased with that right now. Ooh, wait a minute.
Then Tuesday, Ben Johnson realized, oh, hang on, we have
the best record in the NFC. Why the hell am
(11:37):
I apologizing for anything? And he says, quote, I think
when I made that comment, it's easy to construe it
as I'm not happy with the quarterback. That's not the
case whatsoever. Caleb Williams continues to get better each and
every week, and I couldn't be more pleased with how
he played last week. Now, are there elements of truth
to what he said? Hundred percent? Can you win like
(11:57):
this over the long haul if you're passing game isn't
at a more optimal level? Of course, not right, you
need that, But this is where the advice for Ben Johnson,
be that guy that ripped his shirt off in the
locker room. When you get a question about the offense,
the passing game not going on, you say, we're nine
and three. It's hard to win in the NFL. We
ran for five hundred yards today against a really good defense.
(12:17):
Next question, right, what what do you want from us?
What do you want? Don't apologize for wins? I mean,
why is he a pol And? This is this is
part of Chicago. We gotta find stuff that to be
mad about. We can't just be happy. We had to
find stuff to be mad about. And this is where
I feel. I feel attacked you. I felt a taxed
(12:39):
right that I was a personal attack. But to say city, yes,
you stared me directly through my soul as you said,
well I'm talking to you and and and yeah, there
is part of that because I do, yeah you do. Okay, Yes,
take that personally, have the ipat and I wanted Mike
Carmen to take that person You get no more uh
go cheese. But your harmon brought in goat cheese tonight.
(13:01):
That's not a euphemism for anything. He did bring in
goat cheese. This is it. This is if you're Ben Johnson,
you just simply say, yeah, hard to one in the NFL.
We're happy. We ran for two hundred and fifty yards.
Kyle was great, DeAndre was great. Nine and three, we're
pretty happy right now. We're focused on the next game.
Don't apologize. That's say, don't give don't give oxygen to
the fact that why are you put If you were
(13:23):
five and six and you were falling out of the playog, yeah,
I understand that much. But you're nine and three, man,
I mean what your offense knows? Catill Williams, Oh, he's
got to get it going. The rest of the offense knows,
we gotta get it going, right, Well, what do you do? It?
D be that guy that ripped your shirt off. It's funny, right,
so they're already laughing saying they should make a statue
of it. He did that in front of the hot
dog stand where they gave away free hot dogs again
(13:47):
and if you took your shirt off. I really don't
know how that worked with the females in the crowd,
but either way, they had their He was ravishing Rick Rude.
I'd like to invite all the husbands watching to turn
away women take your cameras as I'm gonna take off
my room and get ready to get in the ring.
And then with show women. Actually not absolutely, Yeah, he's
(14:08):
kind of a big deal. But all of that to say,
I agree with you, like the honesty has to be
pulled back, right, don't feed in, don't get like it's there,
and you're I think on some level you're trying to
cut off the next ten questions that are come from it,
because remember, a lot of that is not gonna be
just local media. At this point, you got what the
(14:30):
folks on the score have long referred to as out
of town stupid. You've read the box score, you've seen
three highlights, you haven't watched these games, you haven't watched
any of the flow. And you see, oh, you only
pass for one hundred and fifty yards, and you know,
here's this completion percentage. Well, it's like when you used
to take tests at school. If you only throw the
ball eighteen times and you throw four incompletions, what's that
(14:52):
completion Percentage's gonna look like it's gonna be pretty poor,
isn't it? Kind of like those quizzes like a gully
got like a seventy percent. I got three out of
the ten. Yeah it was ten. It wasn't a thirty
question quiz. That's the way this works. So same thing
with some of the Caleb Williams numbers. Has he been great? No,
And anybody that's watched Possession of Possession, you recognize that
(15:15):
there's still room to grow, but you're winning. You're winning.
And for Ben Johnson, I think some of it is
just the not in the wing to Yes, I understand
we're not there, but you also give oxygen to those
that just want to that don't want to like you,
I mean that don't want this to be a real story,
and there's certainly plenty of them out there. Exit up
(15:35):
about a Fresco exit swalling down the Jason Smith Show

little that's a little existential, Okay, all right, all right,
all right? But did you win? Thoughts don't really win? No,
(35:35):
I don't think we really won. Positive What do invisible
wings taste like? They taste like disappointment? That's what they
taste like. Uh, well that's what you're getting tomorrow, tight
shirts buying them? Yeah, invisible wings. The worst week without
a doubt, the Philadelphia Eagles. This is a team that
(35:59):
weekly looks like they could be runaway Super Bowl champion,
and then they look like they did last week, which
is they can't wait for the season to end. And
this version and this is why they had the worst
week of anybody because this because after this week, the
Eagles remind me more of the twenty twenty three version
(36:20):
of the team coming off the Super Bowl in twenty
two where they had all the issues and they ran
out of gas at the end of the coordinators pasted
by the Bucks in the playoffs. It was a huge
upset win for them. They look more like that team
that was waiting for the season to end, because that's
kind of how I feel like they are now. They're
waiting for the season to end. People allegedly hate Jalen Hurts,
(36:41):
they hate aj Brown, they don't like the offensive coordinator.
Things aren't working that no one likes the media. It
just seems like this is a year where, you know, hey,
when we're in a good mood on Sunday, we get out,
we play well, but that doesn't happen all the time.
And if we don't feel like it, we don't feel
like it. We're just waiting for the season to end.
That's why this is so bad, because they've gone from
(37:02):
just two three weeks ago was man. The Eagles are
just reminding everybody despite all this controversy. Are we eat
during controversy? We eat? We feed off of controversy. Now
that I feel like this is a team that they're
just going through the motions. They're they're counting down till
the end of the year. Right after Santa comes down
the chimney, we got New Year's Eve, the season's over
(37:23):
enough to see anybody for like four months like that.
That's where the Eagles are right now. They have gone
from there right there with the with the Super Bowl
contenders to right now it's they'll lose their first playoff game.
They lose their first playoff game twenty nine to nine.
Like I can see that happening because they look like
a team that's just waiting for the season to end. Now.
First off, I want all those vandals, that's just an
(37:44):
act of vandalism. I want them strung up by their
Buster Browns. What they did do coordinator Patulo's home. I mean,
that's just wrong. It's not his fault. They were up
twenty to one nothing against the Cowboy. Yeah. Yeah, their
defense got run over. Yeah, their offense wasn't on the
field enough to be blamed for anything. This week Bears
had like thirty nine minutes of possession. You stop them.
(38:07):
It was like looking at a college football game from
like nineteen fifty three. What do you have? Well, they
ran the ball eight hundred times, mister inside, mister outside.
By Lot Williams threw the ball twice on Sunday. I
mean really, Like I said, you got a very short
menu when you're talking about your test. Right, it's right,
it's right or wrong. You got two questions, you get
(38:28):
one wrong. You lose big Monday night game against the Chargers,
will be on air for that. Then you got the Raiders,
Then you've got the Commanders. That's the undercard for the
Bears and the Packers. The Eagles take on the Bills
the following week, and then the Commanders again to finish
the season off. I realized at this point, I don't
(38:50):
think it matters because it's just now it's December. This
was the week where hey, we need to get better
after that last week, and it's still just got worse.
And a defense that looked like it was a super
Bowl caliber defense, suddenly the Bears ran over you without
even throwing the football, not like they're not not like
the look I told you how good the Bears offense is.
(39:10):
People underestimate. But they didn't even throw the football and
they they got manhandled. Like that's an emasculating way to
lose a game where not one guy, two guys, doesn't
matter who runs the foot, but it's going against the
team that watched their offense do that to teams all
last year. Now that's all that's the question for the
OC and for Sirianni is you know, I know Lane
(39:31):
Johnson's been hurt, and I know they've they've had some
issues on the offensive line, but there are games they're
not even trying against Saquon Barkley the ball Is he hurt?
Is he because you went and traded for for Bigsby?
That guy had some juice? Why is he not on
the field, Like like there's no effort there at all
to try to jumpstart the run game. To at least
(39:51):
keep your defense from tripping over their tongues in the
second half. This is this is more where they'll find
a way. They'll make the playoffs, and they'll play that
first game and the vibes will be bad and they'll
go home and it'll be what's wrong with the Eagles?
And and and this is where next year they'll come
back out house a fire and they'll make changes. They
(40:12):
won't have a j Brown, They'll bring another, They'll bring
in a new offensive coordinator. They will make change the
Paterson Siriani and send him packing, or they bringing Peterson
to b the OC. Hey, you know I was here
and I did well. You know Chip Kelly's you know,
you know we're all gonna come back here and help you.
But that's who the Eagles are, and they are more
like a team. They'll lose that first playoff game, then
(40:32):
I think they can make it to the NFC title game.
It's a miserable, miserable slog, right, I mean, you're coming
off a Super Bowl and just like that it got
noisy and bad, really fast exit out about a Fresco
exit swollen dome coming up next. A new twist to

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
