Mike and I love putting this content out for you
every single night. Well, NFL Trade deadline day in the league,
we spent a lot of time tonight. Obviously the Jets
owning the storyline. That's a big deal. I mean two
stars right off the jump, names, household names, big stars,

(01:14):
guys you've heard on this show quite a bit. And
then the term sauce. They trade away sauce guard times
for two first round picks from the Colts. They trade
Quinn Williams to the Cowboys. The Cowboys give back a
first and second round pick. They each get a player
as well. Ad Ni Mitchell, most known for being the
guy that dropped the football across from the goal line

(01:35):
against the Rams, but but no place to go for
up for him. Well, he makes him a perfect Jet,
right I mean it to The Jets had Malachi Corley
for a year or two and then they got rid
of him. What was he known for dropping the ball
before he went over the goal line? So now I
got another guy. Hey, we have a need on our team.
We cut the guy that dropped the ball in goal
line last time. Let's get another guy that can do that. Conservation,

(01:57):
the conservation of energies good and bad. But let's look
at these trades now from the perspective of the teams
that made the moves for them, right, So let's start
with the Colts going all in for sauce Gardener. Two
first round picks for sauce Gardener. This means two things.
This means that the Colts have decided, Hey, not we're
mortgaging our future, but we are telling you that we

(02:19):
believe in this team the way it is constructed right now,
and Sauce Gardner is our missing piece for a Super
Bowl because that's where you're thinking right now. You have
the best record in the AFC. Right you are an
ad Ni Mitchell drop ball over the goal line away
from beating the Rams. Right you lose to the Steelers
last week. You had a bad game. Wasn't an awful game,
it was just wasn't your best. I hate that it

(02:40):
was the Steelers who won, because now people think the
Steelers are good, But you're a Colts team that has
an offense that has been unstoppable and that's not going anywhere.
Jonathan Taylor terrific year healthy, Great, you have weapons at
wide receiver and the trade of Mitchell because Alec Pierce
has finally stepped up in year four into being someone
that hey, he's now a clear cut favorite to be

(03:03):
the one of the top three receivers between Josh Downs,
who I think at some point's gonna wind up overtaking
being the number one overall receiver on the Teabowouns. He's
spread the ball around, and you have Tyler Warren. You
have a great offense, right, so now you need to
where are you making a move on defense to get
a player better than Sauce Gardner. So I get it,
and I love the fact they're going in on this

(03:24):
because this is the anti Vikings. Last year, the Vikings said, boy,
you got a quarterback that can really make things happening.
We we got Lucky trained for this guy. He was
a spare part. We pressed him into service Sam Darnold,
and look how good he is. What are you gonna
do at the end of the year. We're gonna let
him go. Yeah, we're gonna let him go because we
had a guy that maybe is good. We don't know,

(03:45):
maybe he stakes, but yeah, this guy is really good.
We're gonna let him go. So that's what we're gonna do.
Daniel Jones too, We had the guy fifteen million. Now
I get letting Daniel Jones go because they didn't know
at the time. Sure, but he was in the building now,
but they're like, you should have at least been able
to see whether you wanted to keep him as a Okay,

(04:06):
I want to say to this now, now understand this.
You think they should have seen Daniel Jones as being
a piece when they saw Sam dark I get that throw.
But if you don't want to franchise, you don't want
But I'm saying, if you don't want to franchise him
and you don't want to pay him a hundred million dollars,
I understand that leaving the room. But you still had
half the season of Daniel Jones, who was at least

(04:29):
in the building. Sure, okay, look, I completely agree with
your Sam Darneld. You know, like that guy, but you
let him go and then you let the other guy
leave too, leaving you with what Carson wins. You are
going to see what is most likely a contract extension
for Daniel Jones. He is now franchise quarterback Indianapolis Colts. Again,

(04:50):
not to say I told you so, but there's a
reason why the Colts back in the spring were my
dark horse super Bowl team. I said, that's my team
from the AFC. They were plus ten thousand. Look at
where they are right now, number one seed in the AFC.
If the playoffs started tomorrow, can I can I just
raise the hair? Go ahead? Yeah? Because you had all
those pieces in Minnesota, and you had Daniel Jones, so

(05:11):
you can't last him walking out the door because he
went to a situation which is exactly the same Jason.
The promo says, Otherwise, you have the Jets in the
super Bowl that was you know, that was from that
was two years ago, in the draft, in the Bowl,
in the super Bowl of the draft, I do, and
if the draft was the Super Bowl, I have them

(05:31):
there because that's where we do all our best work
or our worst work, but we just get the picks anyway.
Uh So you're gonna see a contract extension for Daniel Jones.
Maybe it's a couple of probably somewhere along that. I
would assume it would be like Sam Darnold, three years,
one hundred million for Daniel Jones. And that makes sense
because he fits this off. This offense is terrific. It's young,
you had a lot of playmakers. So I love that.

(05:51):
I love that they're going in saying we know how
good we are, because they are good. They've beaten good teams.
They beat Denver, they should have beaten the Rams, right,
they beat the Chargers. They've won some good games. It's
not like they haven't played in they're not the Patriots
where the haven't played anybody, and now they get the
Jets twice with no sauce Gardener, no Quinn Williams. Right,
so they've beaten good teams. So I get it now

(06:12):
going in for sauce Gardener, right, he had to get decided,
swift understanding, like the drive by opened the car and
hit hit the Patriots. As Year wrote down his histruy,
somehow possible. The Patriots haven't even easier schedule than they
had a day ago, which doesn't make any sense. But
they go get sauce Gardener. Why this trade is better

(06:34):
for the Jets than the Colts. Sauce Gardener peaked as
a rookie, not the first guy, not the last guy,
but he was All Pro top two, top three in
the NFL as a rookie. Now, his second year was
still pretty good, not quite as good as his first year,
but was still good. Last year was not, and this
year is not as good as last year. He is

(06:56):
on a three year decline from his rookie season, all
of it on him because of the way the hand
rules have been changed. What they're calling now in the
NFL stuff that saus Gardner did his whole career that
he could do his rookie year. He can't do anymore right.
The hand fighting, he's gonna get you a penalty, the
holding penalties that he's committed, whether it's in his head

(07:16):
or if it's part of his player or not, he's
not the same player. He just isn't. And when the
Jets gave him that contract extension in the offseason, I
like the fact they kept a good player, But I'm like,
he's not one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL.
He's not Patrick certain, he's not one of the top
two or three guys anymore. Is he a top fifteen Maybe,

(07:39):
but you can't give a top fifteen guy that kind
of now. But he had two years as a first
team All Pro twenty two and twenty three. I mean,
that's only one year was more off of reputation from
the first year than it was how good he actually
was right still still ninety nine percent availability, and that,
as we know in the NFL, trumps everything. Oh yeah, no,
of course, you know, you look at what he was

(08:01):
able to do, and perhaps it was reputational, but he
don't take the accolade away. He's this year you see
the metrics on him are not great. And watching Sauce
Gardener every week, he's not the same guy. He gets worked,
he gives up, he gives up yards and catches that
I say he would never have given that up two
or three years ago. He's not the same player. Sure right,

(08:23):
the Colts think bring him in. He's a missing piece
for us. The Colts run a little bit different. They
run him out. Sem aggestive right, And that's kind of
where Sauce Gardner can maybe figure things out better. Being
long and rangy the way he is. That might be
a better fit for him. It might be better fit,
but he's not the We got a guy that we
can put on the number one wide receiver and have

(08:44):
him follow him all across the field. Can't do that, Ken,
He's not that guy. I watch him get worked by
George Pickens this year some receivers. I'm going, wow, Sauce,
my goodness. And when the Jets have a couple of
players that have played better than him. They got Brownly
in a big trade earlier.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
In the year.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Now he's their starting slot guy. They got a rookie
they like as well that started last week and played
really well. They saw that we can move on from
Sauce Garter and move on from that money. So now
what the Colts are is the Colts now have a
guy that they have to make it work on, and
this is a huge risk. This is not a home
run trade. It's why everybody's saying the trade is better
for the Jets because it is because they got to
first round picks and they get out fro under that money.

(09:21):
Now the Cults are inheriting this money, and they're inheriting
a guy that they have to remake him a little
bit and figure out how he fits in. He's not
that lockdown quarter and fans think that, oh, he's a guy,
he's great, We're just put him on the number one receiver.
Can't do that. He's not that guy. He's not reevous.
He's not someone you can just see. He's not Christian
Gonzales where he's gonna follow you around the field and

(09:41):
good blank and luck. He's someone they have to scheme around.
He's a terrific player, right, he's a really good player,
but he's not what the image of him was because
you still think about him as a rookie when he
comes out of the draft and he's an absolute superstar.
He's not that guy. This is a huge risk for
the Indianapolis Colts. To me, is one of those moves

(10:02):
where the Colts said, we're panicked. We're good, we know
we're good. We may not get this chance again. When's
the next time. We're gonna have the best record in
the NFL the trade deadline, we gotta do something, and
the Jets extracted a heavy toll for him because again,
you're on the hook for this money after this year.
So it's the money and the two draft picks. This

(10:22):
is the Jamal Adams trade for the Jets all over again.
Hey Jamal Adams, Yeah he's a terrific player, but yeah,
you really feel the need you're that guy away, give
us two first round picks. Jamal Adams in the league anymore. Right,
never worked out with Seattle, never stayed healthy, never became
that guy. And the same thing for Sauce Gardener. Right,
he's had trouble staying healthy a little bit. He's not
been the same player. That's why this is such a

(10:43):
great trade for the Jets. For the Colts, it's a
huge risk. It's one of those we gotta do something,
and we gotta do something bold because we may never
be in this position again. That's why the Colts did
what they did. It's a huge risk. Well, I think
it is also just the realism of your playing now,
Like can we talked to earlier in the show. You
can check the podcast for the full discussion. We'll revisit

(11:04):
it in part as we go through. But with the Cowboys,
where are you in the time continuum? Now? You've got
an offense that's putting up major points. You've got guys
you're gonna have to make some decisions on. You paid
a couple, you still have a couple more that are
going to need contract extensions, and you're playing for twenty
twenty five. Jerry Jones talks about his own mortality in

(11:26):
all of it, which which I don't know what kind
of coefficient you put on the variable of your equation there,
but you have that. For the Colts, you've got Jonathan
Taylor playing at an all world level. How many people
coming into the season were like, well, where's the cliff
Based on the amount of touches that he's had since
he came into the NFL. Clearly he's still running wild

(11:48):
and that offensive line has played very well. We talk
about the depth that receiver Ad Warren and for Daniel
Jones being a guy that you like, maybe you start
to love a little bit, but you push in based
on where you're at in the AFC because you look
around the league and there's no team that's truly special.
Everybody's got warts. But come to the playoffs, all right,

(12:09):
as the passing game needs to get shut down, you
can bring in a guy, even if he's a diminished
version of his former self, into what is already a
top seven defense to five. You want to go points
per game their top seven folks want to dismiss the schedule.
It's what we always talk about. You can only play
who's on the schedule, all right. So anybody that wants
to dismiss Jones or any other piece of this, I

(12:30):
don't know if you're watching on a video game simulator
or you're in an alternate universe, but here's the NFL
that we have for twenty twenty five. Jones has played well,
he's been efficient, Jonathan Taylor's been all world and you
decided to take a piece and add to your defense,
and unfortunately that comes with a big cost. Yeah, I
always like guts. Oh, I love the guts and I
love them thinking that it's just the reality is that

(12:53):
this is not a home run trade, right. I like
Quentin Williams is going to be a better impact. I
know he's going to be a bigger impact player with
the coup. Well, when we talk about you know Ballard,
and he's a guy we've talked about a lot on
the show. The roster of the last couple of years
was great except for the giant question mark on the
quarterback position. Right. Ever since Andrew Luck retired, they just
had a bunch of different fits, guys that were at

(13:14):
the end of their rope. The ageless Joe Flacco, Matt
Ryan showed up for a minute just going down. Philip
Rivers was a colt. I mean, all of these guys
before Anthony Richardson and guess what, you realize that he
was too green to trust to play. You bring in
Daniel Jones, who showed you pieces when he was a
member of the Giants, and even his final year there

(13:36):
injury risks. Sure he had a neck injury that felled him.
Saquon Barkley was in and out of the lineup. Show
me those wide receivers tell me which one of those
guys is anything better than a two to a on
any other roster. Those guys were all being purported as
number ones. So you bring him to a team here
where maybe they don't have a true number one, but
they got a lot of guys that can go get it.

(13:56):
Alec Pierce is a twenty one yard a catch guy
down the side enter of the field. Why because you
have to pay attention to Jonathan Taylor and defensively. I'll
take my shot that I've got a roster strong enough
to make it work, and if it cost me a
couple of draft picks. Guess what. Ballard's been pretty good
at doing that. As much as I criticized him for
the quarterback decisions he and Ursay had made, guess what,

(14:19):
They've made a change and now you've got a full
roster push all in love the guts, But it's risky,
no risk, no reward. Be exit of a no risk it,
no biscuit amen exit swallowing down. Jason Smith Mike Harmon

Speaker 1 (15:35):
Fox Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with my best
friend Mike Harmon. Not the Tom Brady story I expected
to do today. It's not something you did on a podcast.
It's not about as broadcasting acumen, about his card shops,

(15:55):
that he's opening for anything. Nope, Nope, nope. Maybe an
autograph he signed for Cooper cut up.

Speaker 4 (16:01):
No.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Tom Brady said today his dog is a clone. Whoa
hold on, yeah, it's like pet cemetery. Uh no, be
buried dog. Oh? I figure what the dog's name was
that The kid's name was Gage and it was Fred Gwynn.

(16:25):
Was the boy needs a father? Yeah? Yeah, no, I
played with him, daddy. Now I'm gonna come play with you.
I had a girlfriend in college that was absolutely was
did Clone. No, no, no, no, no no. Uh. That
was the scariest movie she had ever seen. She was
scared as she was scared to death by that movie.
And I'm like, wow, okay, you scared of that? By

(16:47):
pet Cemetery? Okay, all right, I thought it was a
good move. The book was okay, I'm like, all right, nop,
scared to death the pet Cemetery. The name of the
dog in pet Cemetery is Spot. In the twenty nineteen remake,
they call him him Biffer pet Cemetery too. The dog's
name is Zowie Zouie Zowie. Okay, well it's better than Spots. Sure,

(17:08):
it's not Zoey. No, it's not uh breaky.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
It's z o w i E.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
I don't know. People spell things all sorts of different ways.
Is how's it spelled zo z O w I E. Yeah,
that's Zalie. That's Zalie. Are you sure? Pretty sure? Yeah? Hey, listen,
my daughter's name is Zoe. We look to spell that
many different ways. That was never one that was forced.
Way to go back and watch pet Cemetery too from
nineteen ninety two. Hey, it was so good. Let's make
it because these moves are really cheap. We'll just have

(17:36):
the more dogs. But that was Anthony Edwards. Clancy Brown,
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right, Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Yeah yeah, because then there was the one dog that
was made out of the titanium, and then Anthony Edwards
was Goose and the plane he was in with the
dog was being flown by the dog. Yeah, and then
they tried to eject and he hit the canopy. Yeah,
that was tough. That was tough for Anthony Edwards. And

(17:58):
then they then they brought Goose back. Yeah. Yeah, I'm
cloning goods and bringing goods back be a much different
top gun Maverick, Oh how about that? Hey, I got
my note and I already have my second. Who is it? Man?
Did I ever tell you my dad is still alive?
And he's like got like Frankenstein like you know, like
zippers in his forehead and stuff, and Anthony edwardst his

(18:21):
pay to see that movie, bring me that cruise and
you got your base jumping and bringing that movie. He's
acting like his character for Revenge of the Nerds. Oh okay,
But h Brady put out a statement today from a
company in adjoinment with a company he is an investor in,
saying that his dog Juni is a clone of his

(18:42):
late dog Lua. Colossal Biosciences is a venture capital backed
biotech startup, which it sounds like something for one of
those science fiction movies. Oh you know what they're doing.
They're Colossal Biosciences, the next Jurassic Park when Skynet's gonna
become fully aware and the dinosaurs show up instead of
the locusts or whatever the hell he had going on there.

(19:04):
So now, this biotech startup is made an acquisition of
another animal cloning firm called Viagin or Viagin Pets and Equine.
So basically it's a company that will help you clone
your pal. This is where we had the dire Wolves
coming back. Yes, yes, yes, Steischer was excited about the
dire Wolves maybe making all the animals from ice age

(19:26):
will be coming back. The wooly mammoth, the saber tooth,
the squirrel with the nut, They'll all become back. That's
kind of a big deal. You can't stop him. You
can only hope to contain him, Brady said in a
statement released by the company. A few years ago, he
worked with Colossal and leveraged their non invasive cloning technology
through a blood draw of our family's elderly dog before

(19:46):
she passed. The dog is a pit bull mix, Lua
was adopted by Brady when he was married to Giselle Bunchen,
and the dog died in December of twenty twenty three.
And so now this dog that he has is a clone.
He keeps love alive of his other dog, clone of
his other dog. So he's pining for the reunion with Giselle,

(20:10):
but it'll settle for the clone of the dock, the
clone of the dog. Dog you got a clone of.
Now that's where you just start dating somebody that looks
exactly like your ex. She looks like me, same hairstyle,
save everything. She even wears the same boots that I do.
What is he doing? Uh? Yeah, there's you know you
say that like it's wrong. Oh I'm just saying that.
I mean, that's what you hope and you get through
life as best you can. You don't bring in a

(20:30):
fembot like it's like it's Austin Power a baby. Now
I really just sent tyshirt a thing they're auctioning off
one of the suits from Goldmember. Oh okay, so for
eighteen thousand pounds approximately, he can dress. This is Austin Power.
Now moving to my shoulders, like when all the machine
guns coming out of the out of the bras then

(20:51):
um defensive fembot baby boy bed ending for Elizabeth Hurley
all of a sudden. Wait ah, but it was such
a heart war ending in the first one. Now she's
a fembot. I'm gonna go back in the last the
movie she did since they're bringing back the Mummy. Uh,
the one with Brendan Fraser where she's the devil. That
one dazzle. Yeah, So Brady's got a clone for a dog.

(21:13):
Now I have two thoughts on this one. I get it.
I get that if you have a dog that is
so beloved being a dog on a new dog owner.
Now myself that I've never had a dog before until
I was fifty and now I get a dog. Yeah,
I understand, and I understand my wife telling me stories
her whole life, like you know, I love that dog.
That if you can clone a dog and you can
get what is closest to the dog you had, you'd

(21:37):
want that, right if you had a great dog. I understand.
I completely understand that. I get that so much. I
understand absolutely. I mean, look, I never grew up with
dogs either. We had one for like two weeks. My
brother got knocked down a flight of status. Guess what
the dog was going. That was the end of See
that's a movie. He went back, that's a movie. The
dog is trying to kill me. What Yes, the dog
is trying to kill me. That's actually Kujo before Kujo

(21:59):
came out. Yeah, yeah, so I get that. But on
the other on the other side of it, because I
think about this, there are so many dogs that need homes,
that need to be adopted, and not this not to
be suddenly sell of a sudden. You're sad. But Brady
has enough money. All he could clean out a shelter

(22:20):
and and get pets to people, and he could do
he could do anything he wanted to. There's so many
loving pets that need homes, that are gonna be euthanized,
that are on a list for a long time when
shelters get overrun. There's so many things you can do
cloning a pet, like, do we really need to do that?
Do we really need to do that? I mean, I
understand the technology, I understand moving forward, I understand if

(22:44):
I miss my wife, I understand. You know that when
you get into crazy science fiction stuff, I get it.
But like you know that there's such a such a
difficulty with with pet population that any help you can
give that, Hey, I can give a dog a home,
Give a dog a home, then, like I really, I mean,
it's weird. Ten years ago, I would have never said
something like this, but now understanding that, now I have

(23:04):
a dog, and I love my dog, and I think
I'm getting another one, to which I didn't know when
I woke up this morning. But I think I'm getting
another dog tomorrow. It's a really crazy here's the thing. Yeah,
Brady didn't adopt that dog, so you could yeah, exactly,
Well I don't think Brady's adopting this dog. But you
know what I mean, though, sure, and and I but

(23:27):
I've really comed around to thinking this is this is
something you could do if you feel strongly about this,
instead of technology to clone other animals as pets like I,
I can even get behind the we're cloning other animals.
You know that, you know, food supply animals and stuff.
I really agree or disagree. At least I understand with

(23:47):
what why that's there, And I understand to a point
about bringing back another pet. But there's so many other pets.
Something you can walk into a shelter and then and
if those pets go absolutely bananas going, please take me
at least take me out for a day. You can
have a No. Those dogs even love when you take
them out for a foster day. I have a couple
of buddies, and that that's what they've decided to do.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
They their kids are gone, so they do that once
or twice a week. Uh, and just take a couple
of dogs for long walks. I'll tell you if I
wasn't because Multipoo is the only dog I can have
because of my allergies. If I didn't have those allergies,
I now would be someone who would volunteer all my
spare time at a dogshelf. But you could just walk
get comfortable shoes, and you just take them a lot.

(24:28):
You really have them. If I touch them, the dog
like then they don't get touched. I would say, hey,
the only dogs are I can only do it for
poodles and multipoos.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
That's my only watch. So we were just doing that
now a couple of years ago. I mean, just go
back to the pandemic. I went back to the future
with Michael J. F where I am Darth Vader from
the planet Vulcan. So I I understand yourself. Think about
that from from from the perspective of, yeah, I get
cloning a pet tab with there's so many pets that
already are out there that would love to have an

(24:59):
onf you. And you know, like we see these drives
off in times. Certainly here in Los Angeles post fires,
there were a bunch of shelters that were overrun and
there were you know, giant please come adopt a pet situation.
Folks who use either used it as a reason, hey
I don't have to have or I don't want the
pet anymore, or they legitimately were somewhere temporarily and there's

(25:24):
been no progress on rebuilding any of that. But temporarily
that they couldn't hold a pet because they were moving
into an apartment complex or a hotel or whatever, that
they had to give it their pets. I understand that sentiment,
but I mean again, one to one, I mean, how
many is he gonna adopt? Right, So like it's not
gonna solve the problem. But Bob Barker tried that for years. Man,

(25:46):
have your pets for now. But like he could adopt
one dog or held. Like I said, he has enough money,
he can help clear out a shelter. Hey get get
dogs of different people in here and take this. He
could do stuff like to have that power to do
something like that. But even the smallest thing is you
could go adopt a very sweet pit bull mix and
love that dog like you could do that, Like I
get it, because look what happened today was we've talked

(26:09):
about getting another dog to have Benny to have like
a brother and everything else. I'm like, okay, you know,
we're one dog. I haven't had a dog till I
was fifty, because it's got to be a dog that
I'm allowed that I'm not allergic to. And all of
a sudden, my wife wakes me up today and says, here,
take a look at this. And I see a woman
on Facebook that put out a thing. She's moving and
she's tried all this different stuff, like you know, people
have to move different plan and I can't bring my

(26:30):
dog with me. We've had the dog for five years.
We can't. We've tried all these different things. We can't
do it. So she said to me, what do you think?
And it's a maulti poo and I'm like, yeah, we
can try and this is what I do. She's sitting
there where we're laying in bed and she's on her
phone and I'm like, okay, I said yeah, and I'm
looking at the dog and I'm reading what she said,
and I said, yeah, so we could. We could try it,
Like we'd have to bring the dog over and I'd

(26:50):
have to see it and spend time with it and
see if I'm allergic to it. What. I don't know
what kind of breakdown it is Maltese wise or poodle wise,
because if it's a little bit more Maltese, maybe a
little more ergic to But we could try it, maybe
maybe fostered for a day or two and see how
I go. I go, yeah, I think I'd be okay
with that. She goes, oh good, I go what she goes.
While you were saying, I just texted her we were
good to get the dog. I wasn't even done with

(27:11):
my aunts yet. But once she heard me say hey,
I'm okay, she was like, yeah, let's go. So tomorrow
I think the dog is coming over and we're gonna
spend the day with it, and maybe we have another dog. Well,
then you get to negotiate and say I want a falcon.
Yeah I want to Hey, hey, go get that dog
that falcon. Go use those use those claws, helmet at no,

(27:37):
I take the helmet off. It goes, yeah, who he's
bringing back that rat, that big rat that he pulled
out of that Okay, by the way, ally as the
rat show of this network, yeah number one, Yeah, Los
Angeles number one rat for rats right now. If we
get falcons, if we gets he needs more fight for that.

(28:00):
If you're getting another dog, it's like, like, hey, what's
in it for me? I won't do like more work
for me. All I did was wake up this morning,
and by this time tomorrow we have another dog, and
every another dog. And she could have surprised you with
some other views that you didn't see coming out of
the blue. I hadn't even okay, I hadn't even finished
my answer, and she and I texted her and said, yes,

(28:21):
bring the dog by, We're ready. Yeah you have you
have Noway, I guess we're all right. I'll get no
sway that dog was decided I because we're getting other

Wow, Thank you Steve, Jason Spad Mike Harmon live from

That's next Jason and Mike Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern seven
pm Pacific, Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.
So he spent a lot of time talking about the
big NFL trade deadline today. The guys that went, We
got the big breakdown of Quinn Williams coming up in
a few minutes, Cowboys, everybody. But also today was a
day for the guys who didn't get traded, and one

(34:32):
player we thought was going to get dealt at some point,
have to write. Thought aj Brown was going to get
dealt by the Champs. Thought the Eagles are going to
finally say, Okay, it's not working. We went through it
last year because the unhappiness and his desire to be involved.
It came upbout too late in the season, but they

(34:52):
got by and they won the Super Bowl, despite the
fact he's reading on the sideline during the games. Well,
I mean, look, he gave a book report. Everybody was
the wiser and now this year things started out and
have not gone well. AJ Brown, one of the most
talented wide receivers in the game, not happy with his role.

(35:12):
He's been on social media about it, and I thought
for sure, I said, well, we said this a few
weeks ago. When we get to the deadline, the Eagles
are absolutely gonna trade him because they're not going to
go through the end of the rest of this year
and go with the strategy of we're gonna make it
work somehow. Likely had last year, right, you had to
make it last year. I get it, but you know
what's happening this time around. He doesn't have that big

(35:36):
a role with the team, and if you trade him,
you're not losing a lot. You could have made a deal.
You could have traded AJ Brown for Jacoby Myers if
you wanted, Hey, well bring another guy that's a wide reacher.
Could have got Rashid Shaeed would have been a good
guy to go get right, But instead, the Eagles decided
to keep AJ Brown because, in the words GM Howie Roseman.
It's hard to trade great players. Wow, Okay, so AJ

(35:59):
Brown is so valuable and so reliable. They need a
guy who's called twenty nine passes this year. He cares
about winning, he cares about his teammates. He wears the
seed for a reason. He's had two hundred yard games.
He's had a bunch of games in which he's barely
been used. He finally had a big game against Minnesota.

(36:22):
You know, but before the bye. I don't get how
the feeling is. AJ Brown is going to be someone
that you're gonna count on him to blossom the rest
of the way, like all of a sudden, all the difficulties,
everything you've been dealing with AJ Brown, that's gonna go away.

(36:42):
Last year, I get it because it was okay. It
happened late in the season, and you got and you
got through it. We won the super Bowl. Let's see
how it goes this year. It's not going any better, right,
not going any better this year. He's more unhappy. You
could have made a move, He could have done all
these things, but were you afraid? I feel like the
Eagles were afraid to trade him. They were afraid if
traded him and he turned out to be really good

(37:02):
someplace else. Boy, we wouldn't be able to deal with
that when clearly, what does it matter if he's not
producing for you, wasn't matter. You bring in somebody else
that may wind up being someone that can help you. Again,
there were wide receivers available at the deadline to go
get today that they could have gone and gotten. Yeah,
in terms of the guys you mentioned with like Big
Rashid Shahid fan and look forward to seeing what he

(37:24):
does with an offense that may utilize him more. Otherwise,
all he's been doing is running wind sprints. I mean,
that's pretty much been his role thus far. It might
be the same thing if he'd gone to the Eagles.
You mentioned Jacoby Myers. Any guy that openly campaigns I
want to be traded, like AJ Brown's never said I
want out of here, like he said a lot of stuff.
He's just not been happy with his half and obviously

(37:46):
not happy. And he's averaging fifty yards a game and
you've seen his target count right for five of those
games eight ten, nine, eight nine, And he's a guy
that you'll need down the stretch. Now, it did the
offense Clay without him off the field. Yeah, Demante Smith,
Dallas Goddard and Saquon Barkley running the football again was

(38:07):
kind of a big deal. Now you knew that was
a revenge game, right in an angry game against the Giants.
And for Jalen Hurts, he's had fifteen touchdowns the one interception.
For everybody that's saying he's not producing and whatever, no, no, no,
the numbers are there. They're just quiet, right because there's
the noise from what isn't being said about AJ Brown.
But for the second half of the season, might they

(38:29):
have go back to basics of what you saw last
year where he did have a more prominent role. Yeah,
I think you might. So I do agree with how
he do a point of I can't get rid of
a guy, you know who's a little bit unhappy. He's
still a leader around here. And what am I getting
that to commentary? You mentioned those receivers. Are those guys
won for one replacement? Maybe they're happier to be on

(38:51):
a winning team. But it's like looking at the back
of AJ Brown's football card makes you think he's better
than he is. I mean, he's not playing well. He's
not a guy that affects the offense anymore. So going
to get somebody else that may be a little bit younger,
maybe a little bit better. Go ahead, I know, I
know it's not gonna get any better all of a sudden,
they're gonna get him football. No, no, they're not. They're
not gonna go out of their way to get aj
Brown the football. They tried that, and he's still not happy.

(39:14):
He says, well, they're using me, but they're not using me.
He's not happy. It's not gonna get better. They had
a chance, but they got afraid because oh we're trading
away a guy that people like him in the locker room,
and he was really good for a long time. You
gotta be bold, let it out quits. I can use
him as a decoy if nothing else I got. I
got a team that, you know what, I got other weapons.

(39:35):
I'm pretty sure the other team's gonna know. Yeah, they're
not gonna go to him. He's still getting count Yeah,
but okay, I could throw you the football. It doesn't
matter if you catch it or no, you gotta catch it.
It doesn't matter if you don't catch it. Four more
catches in five games. I can throw you to the football.
But if you don't catch it. It does three games
at least eighty r. If you throw me M and
m's and throw in my mouth and I don't catch him,

(39:57):
you throw me a lot of EM and ms. Doesn't
help me because I'm not catching the M and M.
I'm not even then I want to eat the M
and ms. Right A. J. Brown is a guy not
getting M and ms in his mouth. Right, So number
one receivers, stop crying. What do I need? It doesn't
matter if it's not working, move on, get somebody else
and we'll catch the M and ms in their mouth.
What did they six?

Speaker 4 (40:14):
And jew?

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yeah? You want to send him to the raiders? Couldn't
go tell him out miserable? That would have I think
I think you threatened him with that. I don't think
you actually do it. See we could be GM's coming
up next, we get back into the biggest NFL trade
of the day. Fox
