get some great video elements of us, whether we're singing
along to Joey Lawrence or talking about Jalen Milroe making
(01:12):
his big debut for the Sea.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
He's running like his hair's on fire because they're trying
to chase him down. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Raiders and the Seahawks right now four minutes to go
in the fourth are two minutes ago in the fourth
quarter twenty three to twenty. Seahawks have the lead. Jalen
Milroe in the game for Seattle five out of seven
so far, so nice night throwing the football. Okay, a
little bit for Jalen Milroe. But the Raiders, after looking
absolutely awful and the Pete Caroll revenge game here, have
(01:42):
a chance to maybe pull this one out. How crazy
would that be?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
And then you start it and all of a sudden,
all the Raider honks that we know will be running
around with their Raider flags. I mean, it's too bad
they don't have that store still at Universal City Wall
the Raider image, Yeah, because they'd be selling a lot
of merch. Al Right, Okay, we're winners.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
So I ask you this, if the if the if
the Raiders win, Okay, now it's it's game one preseason.
We're talking about backups and backups and backups, and if
they win somehow like say they won in the final play,
they want to fit whatever it is. Does Pete Carroll
do his celebratory kind of walk run on the field
when he goes all the way like to the hash
marks and start celebrating with this? Does he do that?
(02:25):
Do that here? All right? Just make it no, but
it's look, it's a new world order, man, you got it.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You gotta practice how you you're gonna be in a game, okay,
and you're gonna be a lunatic chomping on the gum
or nicotine or whatever the hell you got going on there,
and you're gonna sprint around. You're gonna be hyped up
like you've been doing smelling salts.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Okay. That's that's who he is, Okay, so you gotta
be true to that form. Just want to see he's
actually gonna do if they win somehow he and he gives,
he gives the fist pump and he walks out.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
He goes.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Yeah, especially in dramatic and dramatic comeback form. After gent
was no good, right, Frostburg and O'Connell was woefully underthrowing
wide receivers. Sure that you were able to get this
comeback win. This is the things you build on Smith,
all right, I just want to see it's doing my
best Pete Carroll impression to sell the hell out of
(03:15):
He canna really do that after the game?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah back in Seattle and I won that preseason game.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Yeah, he might be flipping everybody off doing walk around.
Go up to the mascot, give him the business.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
He goes out and gets the football at the end,
walks off with it under his arm.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
That's my football. That's going to my football room. And
he's got a guy already sitting there with the paint
so he can paint it to put in on his mantle.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah there.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
It is first win Raiders, so we get whoa yet
it would be his first.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
That would be his first. That's the thing, right, I
mean it takes and it's vanquishing the old old squad.
Well that's what I mean. Like, what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Cut and see him out just like he ran away
from USC.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Okay, all right, just as you know bad? Okay? I
mean all right, So Cam Miller is in to potentially
throw his second touchdown pass of the game. Raiders have
the football near midfield with about two minutes left to go. Now,
as promise, we talked about this tonight. You know, I
am bullish on the Raiders, and that means good. Right,
Just remember this, Bulls are good, Bears are bad for shadowing,
(04:23):
for shadow I'm in on the Raiders, and I've talked
about this a lot in the offseason. Right, the three
biggest things you need to settle on a football team
is front office, head coach, quarterback. If you have that,
you can accomplish a lot of other things. Right, show
me a team that lose. I'll show you a team
that one or two of those positions are woefully understaffed. Right,
(04:45):
but now the Raiders. Okay, Brady is in his part
owner advisor. Great, you've taken care of the front office,
part head coach. Pete Carroll, super Bowl winning head coach.
You're not going to get a better guy to come
in and stabilize the program where he can run things
top to bottom. Quarterback Gino Smith, who was at least
a league average ish quarterback. You're not worrying about trotting
(05:05):
out guys like Aidan O'Connell or or other. You know,
maybe you bring out Vince Evans again, you know, I
don't know. Hey, hey, well he did well for the RUSS. Good.
Jeff Hosteler was good for the Raiders. The back of
the Raiders do stuff like that in THEE but they
have stopped the backsliding and I'm in on them this
year so much so that I think they will be
(05:28):
the best last place team in the NFL. Best last
place because the AFC West is gonna be the best
division in football by a wide margin. Chiefs Chargers. I
think the Chargers can win the division. The Broncos are
going to look to take a big leap off of
their surprise playoff appearance last year. As good as bo
Nicks was, So yeah, I'm all in on the on
(05:48):
the AFC West being the best division in football. All in. Wow, Okay,
they're sixteen to twenty to one to win the division.
Yeah I do.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I do like the cut of your jibs and going
deep saying hey, they're the best.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
But I would say there's still the losers. I actually
have this Seattle squad because they get to play the
AFC South.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Yeah they do. So they get to steal a winner
two along the way. All right, So here we go.
So here's the the official preseason power rankings for the
projected last place teams in.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
The Okay, according to.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Odds, are projected to be the last place teams in
their division. And we have two divisions where there are ties,
right right, and but for entertainment purposes, we will use
the Bears, yes, okay, and for all for entertainment purposes,
the Seahawks. So here we go. Here's my here's my
order power rankings. I'll go from eight to one. Okay, okay,
(06:45):
worst team Power rankings, worst team, eighth ranked team Browns. Okay,
I agree, number seven, just ahead of the Browns in fact,
fighting with the Browns, or the Browns could be fighting
with them. The Saints, yeah, I have them a little higher. Dude,
Archie Manning is not playing quarterbacks and I mean the grandfather,
(07:08):
not arch Manning.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
I'm going Spencer Rattler there. Well, you know this is
where your your team comes in from me.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Well, no, no, no, We're gonna better than the Giants, who
I have at number six, okay, because the Giants are terrible.
They're gonna be starting Jackson Dart by week eight because
Russell Wilson stinks. So the Giants at six and the
Titans at five. So my bottom four teams the power rankings, Titans, Giants, Saints,
Brown's Okay. The top four teams now is where things
(07:40):
get fun. Sure, and I feel good about seeing my
team in the top four power rankings. The Jets, Now,
these are your power ranks. The jet Mi mine will follow.
I have the Jets top four, top four power rankings.
That means like in the top half of yeah, best
last place.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah yeah, Jets rank twenty five through twenty eight.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yeah, let's go yeah. Seahawks number three, Okay, Bears number two. Wow,
look at you. I like the Bears. I've told you.
I like the Bears. I like Caleb Williams man, no
matter what I hear about how bad practice is going
with the Bears and the Raiders, of course the best
last place team in the way. That so in order
from the top down again, Raiders number one, Bears number two,
(08:24):
Seahawks three, Jets four in the power rankings for projected
last place teams in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Look at you, Raiders, Bears, Seahawks, Jets. Nicely done, nicely done.
I'd like the cut of your jib. I disagree because
the Raiders aren't.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Gonna win the many games. Sure they are, right, but
there still be But these are power rankings. These are
power rankings. Yeah, but there's gotta be an and you
can have a similar record and still be viewed as
a better team. Hey the Raid. The Raiders might not
have as good a record as the Bears, but they
play in a tougher division. So hey, you wait the
what's your system? You wait? The Bears? I have to
(09:00):
explain Gil Brandt. I don't have to explain what your system.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Most watching Gil Brandt autograph card because when he made
the Hall of Fame tops that's fifty bucks though, Okay,
oh yeah that's a lot. That's because I figured you
would just end up in a box. You wouldn't display Gilbrandt.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
No, I'd much rather you buy wings one night. We
can add that this week. I mean, so if my
Bill Brandt card went for you to buy wings.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
No, so that's final. All right, So Cleveland we agree. Uh,
they're they're the worst of the worst. I think as
we we drift a little further, I had the Jets
down there, just you just should be in a jerk
while you have the Jets.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I just don't think the Titans and the Giants, and
you really think the Jets aren't as good as the Saints.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Come on, man, NFC South opportunities. Likewise, like why I
mean Tennessee vision.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Is terrible, they're terrible too, doesn't matter, it is it is.
But again, these are power rings. If you win a
couple more games than the Jets, but you play in
a really bad division, the power rank. No. But that
that's where it gets fun. The Jets division is tougher
than the AFC. I think I think any division is
(10:12):
tougher than the AFC. That's gonna be the worst division
in football.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, no, that's that most definitely is you have the
Jets lower than the Saints. Come on, because they're terrible.
Saints are right there with them. They're not running away.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Try to don't try to sugarcoat this by saying, oh,
they're just six. No, if the Jets played the Saints,
the Jets would kill. They would win, like sixteen to ten.
They would kill.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
You're telling me justin fields against Spencer Rattler Tyler shuck,
they were the ghost of Archie Manning.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Saints. That's not a draw. The Saints would get ten points,
the Jets defense would hold them to ten points. The
Jets would kick three field goals and get an interception
return for a touchdown. There's your Jets. Sixteen points right there.
They kill them, sixteen to ten, kill them. It's not
even close. Sixteen sixteen ten, it's it's not even close.
(11:03):
Are you going to average more than sixteen points a game? No,
I think we'll be I think if I had, i'd say,
if we average more than seventeen points a game the Jets,
I'd be surprised. Eh yeah, no, yeah, seventeen yeah, two
touchdowns at a field goal? Well, big offensive explosion might
be a two touchdown two field goal game. Look out,
I got to twenty. Remember, we're gonna run the football
(11:25):
a lot. Oh no, absolutely no. Brayleen Allen's a guy.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
I did a thing for the Fantasy Pros site where
they're like, all right, who's the guy you like? He's like, well,
Breece Hall is already telling people he's not the guy. Yeah,
it's And even if he's just you know, soft shoeing
that one and trying to downplay it so you won't
be disappointed, and he can point and say, hey, I
told you, Uh, Braylen Allen's going to see.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
A lot bet just inside mister outside does I mean?
It's it's like having you know, it's like having the Davises.
I like the way you did that. I like talk
to have a big year in fantasy. Is my number
one pick? Okay, all right, great, you're insane. That's good though.
(12:06):
So who do you have? Number one? Number one? Number?
Or number one? Is the number one? The best last
place team in the NFL?
Speaker 3 (12:15):
See they were a double double? Did you win team
last year? I got Seattle.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Oh, you're just picking Seattle because yeah, I don't know,
because it's an ex jet as the quarterback. No, but
like another division that I think is gonna be tough
all the way through, it will be tough, right, I
don't But again, you know me, I'm not a big
proponent that I think the forty nine ers are going
(12:40):
to be that great.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Well, that said a lot of guys that could fall
off the clift. We talked a lot about Christian McCaffrey
on the show. I think Arizona's going to be better, right,
they drafted a lot of defense. Uh, Skyler Murray will
do his usual first half heroics that might actually be
bolstered by the fact that the defense is better.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yeah, No, I'm d I mean, I feel like you're
just picking x Jets at the top and the Jets
at the bottom. There might be something to that. Man, Look,
you got your ranking system, I've got mine. Like Ukon
Cornelia said, you eat what you like, and I'll eat
what I like. All Right, that's fine. There it is.
We'll tweet these out as well preseason power rankings for
(13:21):
the last place teams in the NFL. Congratulations Raiders. You
can hang a banner for this. I'm gonna be real
popular at a home with how low I have. The Bears.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Did a big rant on Baltimore radio earlier today to
where they're like, you know, we're like four minutes over now.
Like you asked me about the Bears, you knew the Risks.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Speaking of Raiders Seahawks, we could potentially see Raiders heroics.
Fourteen seconds left to go. Gino Smith just ran on
the field to give Cam Miller the quarterback of pep talk.
They've just completed a pass past midfield. The Raiders might
be one play away from kicking a game winning field goal.
(14:01):
Where's Janakowski at? Oh man, I'll tell you I go
super toe on his bam. It's in my head. It's
exciting right see Gino Smith running on the field. Hey,
I used to play here too, Man, I used to
play there too. You win this game for me. I
want to walk off this field. Me and Pete want
to walk off this field sticking our middle fingers up
and everybody you complete this past Cam Miller. Okay, you
(14:22):
realize my legacy's on the line here.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
You know what would be really funny though, if all
of a sudden Tom Brady just walked.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Down to the fields me. I bring winning here. Exit
out about a Fresca exit swollen dove. Jason Smith, Mike
Carmon coming up next. Yes, we have the latest believe
it or not, another sex toy was thrown on the
court in the WNBA game, plus evidence that potentially the
Anthony Richardson injury tonight was all my fault. That's next

Fox Sports Radio, The Jason Smith Show with my best
friend Mike Harmon.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
Well Dressed, Hobo, Underrated, overrated, properly rated. Bruce Springsteen, Oh Society,
way underrated. I know you like versus sports analysts because
he's the patron saint of sports analyst. Brus Springsteen has yes,
the opinion of Bruce Springsteen throughout you know, at the
(16:05):
average person thinking of music, Yeah, like Bruce. But Bruce
Springsteen had like two of the greatest album rock albums
of all time. I mean think of like, he's got
two that are probably on the top twenty list if
you're being fair, and he's got a couple others like Wow,
like Darkness on the Edge of Town. I listen to
that all the time.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
That's like my bad mood album, Like, if I'm in
a bad mood, I'm gonna put on Darkness of the
Edge of Town. Listen to Highway Patrolman, gonna listen to
Mansion on the Hill. You listen to Atlantic City, It listen.
It's my bet. But like you talk about Born to
Run and Uh and Born in the USA, like these
are two of the biggest albums in the history of
rock and roll at Nebraska and the Where You Go.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
But yeah, it's he's one of those guys that growing
up somehow my dad's eglectic music collection, Springsteen really didn't
play a role in any of that. Yeah, and he
popped in, you know, the Born in the USA and
when we started buying albums my older brother, and it
made its rounds, but never was really a fixture in
all of that.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
And then Bad Mood. You know where I'm going with
all of that.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Sure, sure that happens, plenty of metal and stuff that
takes that place country music to.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
You know, Now you want to know who is happy?
Who's that? How happy? Did the Raiders look to tie
tonight against the Sea? Yeah, Carlson misses a fifty five
yard field goal, gets blocked on the final play of
the game. So the Raiders fall short in winning the
Pete Carroll revenge game, but they get a tie. So okay, okay,
(17:30):
and Pete didn't do his whole run on the field. Yeah,
because obviously the game winning field goal was blocked. But
you know, okay, all right, you know still he goes
back there with a tie, so he and Gino Smith
can say, nah, I don't know, it's not really revenge,
but it's not really we got to put on us.
It's kind of just a I don't know, it's a
resumption game. You know what, I'm done.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
You know what, though he failed his backers, they were
five and a half point favorites.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Oh okay, so Pete failed. Yeah, but they would have failed.
He would have failed the back anyway because the game
winning field goal they're not covering. Again, he failed his
back all right.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Now, if you had him on the money line, because
you were back in Pete as a winner.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
He still failed you. Absolutely. Carlson failed you, Carlson. But
still now congrats. See this shows the moxie the Raiders have.
Because I told you the Raiders are gonna be the
best last place team in the NFL. They'll be of
all the last teams in last place in their division.
They will be the best. They were, they're ranked twenty fifth.
They were. Yes, they were getting absolutely obliterated tonight, and
(18:30):
they found a way after two bad Aid and O'Connell interceptions,
to come back and tie this game. Just think about that.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Those third stringers really beat up on the other third
stringers and away we went.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
They will be the best last place team in the NFL.
You compare all those last place teams at the end,
won't even be close. Raiders are the best. They will
be the best the now. Tonight was the real first
night of preseason in the NFL, because you know, the
Hall of Fame game is is, Yes, it's a game,
but you don't really get any star players playing because
(19:01):
it's an extra game. If you play the Hall of
Fame game, you get the extra game out there early. Yeah,
and generally that early in camp, teams don't want to
put their star players out there, so it's more of
a celebrations. Hey, we have the Hall of Fame induction
ceremony coming out and nickel back Yeah the game, Yeah,
I mean they we had the sweet ass Chargers uniforms
and the Lions and Dan Campbell was there and Harball
was there, so it was fun seeing them. But still, okay,
(19:23):
it's more of a celebration of the game. Now Now Tonight, tomorrow,
Saturdays we get real games with star players playing and
big things to break down. We get to say it.
So tonight was really was the first night of the
NFL season.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Is about as excited as you've ever gotten for preseason football.
And look, as a Jets fan, and I'm speaking as
a Bears fan, winning the offseason seems to be the
hallmark of our squads for a long time. I mean, look,
winning the offseason got Ryan Poles a two year contract
extension when he still had two years left on his deal.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Are you winning a season? You're just winning the off.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Seas But that's it. The worst two seasons, they're still hoping.
There's still excitement.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
There's two seasons in the NFL. There's the season and
there's the off season. But the Jets were off season
champions two years running. We were back to back off
season champions. And maybe you were the the off season
champion this year. I mean, think about that, and then
you got relegated back to back years. It doesn't matter.
But you look at it.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
I still have those offseason right now talking about stars playing,
and that's the big departure from what we've seen the
last couple of years, right because we've got some Joe
Burrow and Jamar Chase getting out there and getting after it.
We're gonna see more starters. We've always seen that with
the Chiefs. But you know, we're going away from what
Sean McVay wrought on the NFL these last couple of years.
(20:41):
People starting to look around, going maybe some extra refs
wouldn't be the worst thing.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
So here we go. But speaking of star players, Anthony Richardson,
you got hurt tonight, dislocated as pinky on a sack.
Pinky was sticking out in the way that pinkies don't
normally stick out. He was taken out of the game.
It's not known how long he's going to be out.
We talked about the epic failure of Shane Stiken saying, yes,
you're not. We're gonna put our quarterback out there, and
(21:08):
we're gonna sit three of our starting offensive linemen. And
what happened. Your quarterback got pancaked because of miss blocks
and you decided it was okay. To put out your
franchise player behind a bad offensive line. Nobody in the
NFL does it. The Jets don't even do that. You
think Mike Tomlin's putting Aaron Rodgers out there Saturday night
with three backups on the offensive line. No, nobody's doing it.
And the fact that Stiken talked about it after the
(21:29):
game and said, yeah, we're still okay doing that tells
me he's not ready for the gig of being an
NFL head coach. He's not ready because that's a stupid
decision to make to put out a start, starting level
caliber quarterback when you're gonna say, hey, three of our
starting offensive linemen are not gonna play. If I'm rich
as I go up and go, do you want me
to do you want me to get hurt?
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Like?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Really, what do you think?
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Man?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Do you still like me? Do I have a future here?
Because you put me out there behind a bed makeshift
offensive line night one where the offensive line is still
trying to figure out all kinds of chemistry We don't know.
We're looking for some kind of calls that we have
to pay attention to. We're looking for whatever kinks we
have to iron out here because it's the first time
we're getting out there under the lights and you're gonna
put three backups out there. Man, I'm Richardson, and I go, dude,
(22:13):
do you even know what it means to be a
head guy? Look? I might not know what it means
to be a quarterback because I can't stay on the field,
But do you know what it means to be a
head coach? Because nobody makes that decision.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Now to be fair, I mean even in his post game,
and this is where I have to uh, I'll disagree
in terms of because Anthony Richardson's shown to be a
guy who will say what's on his mind. You know,
I left the game because I was tired. If he
really had a problem, I don't know that he would
have been as diplomatic and as self aware of Yeah,
(22:43):
I've got to, you know, channel my inner wedding crashers
and yell hot route and get the ball out. He
instead of getting plowed, he didn't see the guy because
he came in unblocked. That's not on the quarterback when
a guy comes in unblocked and wrecks the quarterback.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
But there's a bunch of quarterbacks.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
That are winner and other means to say, no, that's
the quarterbacks. Got gotta read that and understand that you
get the ball out, you.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Put the play. See, the thing is, the play is
irrelevant because you decided it was okay to put your
franchise player out potentially still be your franchise player, or
at least your starting quarterback, which is a pretty important
position in the NFL. He still decided it's okay to
put him out there behind a patchwork offensive line where
you decided to rest three of your starters, clue two
of them that are pretty good, Like, I don't, I don't. Again,
(23:31):
I don't know any team that would do that. The
Raiders wouldn't even do that, all right, The Jets wouldn't
even do that, And I know that, Hey, I've seen
the Jets do some crazy ass things, man, I've seen
I mean, okay, the Jets now wouldn't do it because I
actually watch Rex Ryan do that with Mark Sanchez about
a decade ago, which again is you know, Rex Ryan's
not a coach in the NFL for the reason. So
I did see the Jets now I wouldn't even do that.
(23:53):
I don't know any team that would say, yeah, here's
a guy we took in the top five that we
still think could be great, that maybe could be our
starting quarterback. And yeah, we're okay ironing out the Kikes
with an offensive line, throwing you out there behind them,
but doing a little bit of digging.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
And obviously we're not dialed into every rep taking during
you know, Colts practices or you know most teams for
that matter. As you get onto the field and you've
got a lot of injuries that they're dealing with, and
then you got veteran players that sometimes can say, hey,
I'm not in right. For the Bengals, they all played right.
(24:31):
They said, well all for one, one for all, and
got their reps in because while September has not been kind,
particularly the first two weeks of the season under the
Zax Tailor regime, so you know, do something even if
it's wrong, kind of philosophy of getting guys out on
the field. In this case, man Anthony Richardson's probably gonna
be playing behind makeshift lines. And if he would have
(24:54):
lost the coin toss and would have been the starter,
you know next week.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
They shouldn't have put Daniel Jones out there either, because
he could start. They got to get res No, they don't.
Speaker 5 (25:02):
Not.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
If you're not, you're not. You're not Matthew Staff and
watch TV for a month.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
If you're not gonna start your offensive line, you're not
gonna put your guy still playing. Yeah, but not a
good come on, but not? Maybe not.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I don't know how much they grade higher and lower
than the starters. But these guys are trying to earn
jobs too, just like Richardson.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
No, I get it, you're earning a job, but none
of these guys were taking the top five in the draft. Hey,
this is a pretty valuable commodity that we have on
the team, and we're gonna throw him out there behind
a bunch of guys that, Hey, we know, maybe he's
gonna get killed today because he's gonna get man.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
That's just some man and just absolutely annihilated. Yeah, that
top five pick that was so long ago.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
He's a jag. He's a quarterback fighting for a job.
Ley Leonard out there in the beginning and he plays
three and a half quarters. That's what you do when
you're not gonna start your offense of line.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Wait, and then three weeks from now, we're still saying, hey,
who's gonna line up at quarterback.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Call it in the air.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Are you going pool Q?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Dark night here? Make it quick? I mean, what are
we doing now? I want to say this. I want
to be fair. If I'm going to criticize Shane Stikeen
for making a horrendous decision again, I wonder if he's
really up for being a head coach in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Well, he's on the hot seat along time. Mike McDaniel
went on some others.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
But I want to say this because it's it's partly
my fault as well. All right, I want your fault
on the new preseason. Yeah, I have to. I have
to take responsibility for this because it's really it might
it's it's it is my fault. So today, uh, Pam
and I and Zoe go into Mavro, one of our
our big place we'd like to go get coffee drinks
(26:42):
at So is that because it's derivative of Maverick. I
don't know what. I kept calling it Marveo and Pam's
going it's Mavro, And now I do it on purpose
and I say we'll go to Marvel. It's Mavro, Like
this is kind of fun thing. So we go in
and I'm wearing a Michigan hat and Pam's wearing Michigan
T shirt. And the guy that works he says, oh,
don't tell me you guys are Michigan. And I'm like, oh, okay,
(27:03):
well what tips you off? And I said, oh, not me.
I married into it. But you know she went there,
and party goes, oh, please don't tell me you. Uh
you went to Ohio State because I like coming in
here like wow, PAMs, and he goes, no, no, no, I'm
actually India. I went to Indiana. I was like, oh,
I said, wow, dude. I said, how happy you had
the best football season?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
And I don't know, I think in school history.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
I said, you are you really got a playoff berth
you didn't deserve.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
No.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
I didn't say that because the guy was making my coffee.
So I didn't want to say anything that he's going
to get a med. Yeah. I don't want to. I
don't want to make anybody mad. So I said I said, hey,
in a great season. He goes, yeah, I guess yeah.
I'm honestly, I'm I'm way bigger a bigger Colts fan
than I am an Indiana football fan. I said, well,
cause you really haven't had any seasons. I mean, what
do you got to go back to Antoine Randall ll
before that was Anthony Thompson, right, So he said yeah,
(27:51):
bigger cause you know, I said, well, good luck tonight,
and he goes, ah, you know Richardson. Richardson hasn't been good.
Daniel Jones stinks. And I'm like, okay, I said yeah,
And I'm like, and he doesn't know that, you know,
I'm I'm on the radio or anything or a personality.
I'm just a dude talking football with You had a
shirt that said don't you know who I am? But hey,
I'm expecting a discount here. Uh so? And I said yeah,
(28:12):
but I mean, look, Daniel Jones will be fine. You
have a lot of weapons on offense, right, you have
really good weapons at receiving a really good tight end.
And Taylor's fantastic goes yeah, but you know, I mean
we've seen this, We've been told, you know, we've been
told that we're going to be supposed to be good
for a long time. I just don't know. And I
said yeah, and then this is where it's my fault.
And this is where this is where it takes a
decided turn because I said to him, because I said
(28:35):
to him, I said, well, look at it this way.
As long as nobody gets hurt, it'll be fine. So
it's my fault. Did you say that?
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Wait, knowing you've got a quarterback who a taps out
because he's tired.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Yeah, and be can't avoid a hit. Oh yeah yeah yeah, yeah, No,
that's and ude, he's super Dave Osborne on a football field.
I said that like two hours before the game start,
like the guys are already on the field warming up.
And I said that to him, and I said, yeah,
as long as nobody gets hurt, you'll be fine. He goes, yeah, Okay,
Now I can't go back in there. Now he's got
(29:08):
a thing here. It's like Chubbs. I'm going to coffee
being in Starbucks now the rest of my life. I'm
going I'm going to easy it. I'm going to Easier.
I can't go in there.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
You had a craft coffee and a guy who kind
of liked you. I have to side with the Michigan gear.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
But I gotta go stand outside and if I hate
you going in here, Yeah, how about I'll pay for
your coffee if you get me this drink. Well, why
can't you go in? It's a long story, but I'll
pay for your coffee. Oh all right, sure, as.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
So long as you don't have one of those specific
you know, coffee drinks.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I'm pretty, I'm pretty gonna, I'm pretty easy. I'm pretty
when it comes out. I don't go too crazy with
the Give me a half calf, double calf, twisted lemon?
Uh that yeah, almond, almond milk, soy milk if you
have it? No, no, no, I'm omaha omaha, yeah no,
I'm okay. But I mean I gotta think I'll be
able to. Hey, I'll buy your drink if you buy
me one. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Now you're like standing outside, mister Wells.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
They're asking an adult to buy me a coffee. If
I'm giving them money to buy a coffee, that's not
I guess that.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Looks a little an I'm not really banned.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
I just you just don't ask questions. I'm paying for
your coffee. Go inside, get it for me. Come on, man,
what'd you do? Tell not to find out? What's trending
in the wide world of sports? From Monzi Millennials, Manzie,
what do you got?
Speaker 2 (30:27):
What else is your fault?
Speaker 3 (30:28):
Today?
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Jason Ah, that's it. That's a big thing. That's my fault.
That's a big things. That's what you call it.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Callback smaller transgressions that may or may not have occurred
during this show, but that's a bigger one.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
That's that's the biggest one. Yeah, that's the one I
always forget. Is the phrase, if you take care of
the big things, the little things take care of themselves,
or you take care of the little things and the
big things take care of themselves.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
I think the latter is a more impressive. Okay, the
Devils of the details kind of process to me, sure, right,
because if you take care of the nuts and bolts,
then the larger machine's gonna work.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Wow, exactly. You put that on a T shirt. He
put that on a T shirt.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
NFL preseason action three games on Thursday night that they
have all wrapped up. The latest one ended in a
tie the Seahawks and the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Did you bet that the game would finish in a tie? No?
Speaker 4 (31:23):
I had to look it up if it could end
in a tie. I didn't know because it was preseason,
so I wasn't sure. And then I thought for a
second that maybe the Raiders were gonna win. It because
they were down double digits and and then they came
back in the second half. Daniel Carlson hit a fifty
one yard field goal with one minute left to tie
the game. And then Vegas gets the ball back and
he goes for a fifty five yard field goal to
(31:45):
win it, and the Seahawks block it. That's how the
game ends, twenty three apiece. The Ravens defeated the Colts
twenty four to sixteen. Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson, as you
guys were talking about, took a hard sack very early
in the game, dislocated a right pinky finger on his
throwing hand and is.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Considered day today.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Super Bowl champion Eagles defeated the Bengals thirty four to
twenty seven. Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase both played one quarter.
Burrow completed nine to ten passes for one hundred and
twenty three yards two touchdowns, One of them went to Chase,
who call all four of his targets for seventy seven
yards and that touchdown. Friday's preseason action Lions at Falcons,
(32:22):
Browns at Panthers. Both of those started at seven Eastern
Commanders at Patriots, that's at seven thirty Eastern. This is
Friday's preseason action. Other NFL news, Texans safety CJ. Gardner
Johnson did not tear his ACL during today's practice. He's
expected to miss some time, but the injury is not
expected to be season ending. Unfortunately, Chargers Pro Bowl left
tackle Rashaun Slater tore his left pateller ten and in
(32:45):
practice he will be out for the season. When it
comes to baseball, the Pirates shout out the Red seven zero.
Paul Skins pitched six innings, gave up seven hits, no runs,
struck out eight Braves came back to beat the Marlins
eight six, and the Mariners walked it off forty three
against the White Sox on an RBA single from Dominic
can Zone in the eleventh inning. And in the w NBA,
the Mercury crushed the Fever ninety to sixty, Elyssa Thomas
(33:08):
eighteen points, eleven rebounds, Tennis becoming the first player in
WNBA and w NBA history to record three consecutive triple doubles.
And that is not where things went flying. That they
went flying in Chicago, yep. And it was purple, and
it was purple and it was purple. Next one better
be a different color.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Why did you bet a different color? Well, I'm gonna now, oh, okay,
all right now.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
The odds from before last night, single contest purple was
plus three twenty five.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
I would be mad if I was, if I was
the person who bet that it would be green again.
I saw the purple one one job, one job.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
Yeah, most of the odds I've seen actually exclude green
because it is.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Sixty of the market.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
One job.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Thank you, Bye guys, bye, Coming up next, Yes, another night,
another sex toy, Another Bilbo Baggins thrown on the court
in the WNBA game. How what I said last week
could have solved this? For the w I should be
the commissioner. What's next? Right here Jason and Mike.

get some great video elements of us, whether we're singing
along to Joey Lawrence or talking about Jalen Milroe making
(01:12):
his big debut for the Sea.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
He's running like his hair's on fire because they're trying
to chase him down. Man.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Raiders and the Seahawks right now four minutes to go
in the fourth are two minutes ago in the fourth
quarter twenty three to twenty. Seahawks have the lead. Jalen
Milroe in the game for Seattle five out of seven
so far, so nice night throwing the football. Okay, a
little bit for Jalen Milroe. But the Raiders, after looking
absolutely awful and the Pete Caroll revenge game here, have
(01:42):
a chance to maybe pull this one out. How crazy
would that be?
Speaker 3 (01:46):
And then you start it and all of a sudden,
all the Raider honks that we know will be running
around with their Raider flags. I mean, it's too bad
they don't have that store still at Universal City Wall
the Raider image, Yeah, because they'd be selling a lot
of merch. Al Right, Okay, we're winners.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
So I ask you this, if the if the if
the Raiders win, Okay, now it's it's game one preseason.
We're talking about backups and backups and backups, and if
they win somehow like say they won in the final play,
they want to fit whatever it is. Does Pete Carroll
do his celebratory kind of walk run on the field
when he goes all the way like to the hash
marks and start celebrating with this? Does he do that?
(02:25):
Do that here? All right? Just make it no, but
it's look, it's a new world order, man, you got it.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
You gotta practice how you you're gonna be in a game, okay,
and you're gonna be a lunatic chomping on the gum
or nicotine or whatever the hell you got going on there,
and you're gonna sprint around. You're gonna be hyped up
like you've been doing smelling salts.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Okay. That's that's who he is, Okay, so you gotta
be true to that form. Just want to see he's
actually gonna do if they win somehow he and he gives,
he gives the fist pump and he walks out.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
He goes.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Yeah, especially in dramatic and dramatic comeback form. After gent
was no good, right, Frostburg and O'Connell was woefully underthrowing
wide receivers. Sure that you were able to get this
comeback win. This is the things you build on Smith,
all right, I just want to see it's doing my
best Pete Carroll impression to sell the hell out of
(03:15):
He canna really do that after the game?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah back in Seattle and I won that preseason game.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Yeah, he might be flipping everybody off doing walk around.
Go up to the mascot, give him the business.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
He goes out and gets the football at the end,
walks off with it under his arm.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
That's my football. That's going to my football room. And
he's got a guy already sitting there with the paint
so he can paint it to put in on his mantle.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah there.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
It is first win Raiders, so we get whoa yet
it would be his first.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
That would be his first. That's the thing, right, I
mean it takes and it's vanquishing the old old squad.
Well that's what I mean. Like, what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Cut and see him out just like he ran away
from USC.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Okay, all right, just as you know bad? Okay? I
mean all right, So Cam Miller is in to potentially
throw his second touchdown pass of the game. Raiders have
the football near midfield with about two minutes left to go. Now,
as promise, we talked about this tonight. You know, I
am bullish on the Raiders, and that means good. Right,
Just remember this, Bulls are good, Bears are bad for shadowing,
(04:23):
for shadow I'm in on the Raiders, and I've talked
about this a lot in the offseason. Right, the three
biggest things you need to settle on a football team
is front office, head coach, quarterback. If you have that,
you can accomplish a lot of other things. Right, show
me a team that lose. I'll show you a team
that one or two of those positions are woefully understaffed. Right,
(04:45):
but now the Raiders. Okay, Brady is in his part
owner advisor. Great, you've taken care of the front office,
part head coach. Pete Carroll, super Bowl winning head coach.
You're not going to get a better guy to come
in and stabilize the program where he can run things
top to bottom. Quarterback Gino Smith, who was at least
a league average ish quarterback. You're not worrying about trotting
(05:05):
out guys like Aidan O'Connell or or other. You know,
maybe you bring out Vince Evans again, you know, I
don't know. Hey, hey, well he did well for the RUSS. Good.
Jeff Hosteler was good for the Raiders. The back of
the Raiders do stuff like that in THEE but they
have stopped the backsliding and I'm in on them this
year so much so that I think they will be
(05:28):
the best last place team in the NFL. Best last
place because the AFC West is gonna be the best
division in football by a wide margin. Chiefs Chargers. I
think the Chargers can win the division. The Broncos are
going to look to take a big leap off of
their surprise playoff appearance last year. As good as bo
Nicks was, So yeah, I'm all in on the on
(05:48):
the AFC West being the best division in football. All in. Wow, Okay,
they're sixteen to twenty to one to win the division.
Yeah I do.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
I do like the cut of your jibs and going
deep saying hey, they're the best.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
But I would say there's still the losers. I actually
have this Seattle squad because they get to play the
AFC South.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Yeah they do. So they get to steal a winner
two along the way. All right, So here we go.
So here's the the official preseason power rankings for the
projected last place teams in.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
The Okay, according to.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Odds, are projected to be the last place teams in
their division. And we have two divisions where there are ties,
right right, and but for entertainment purposes, we will use
the Bears, yes, okay, and for all for entertainment purposes,
the Seahawks. So here we go. Here's my here's my
order power rankings. I'll go from eight to one. Okay, okay,
(06:45):
worst team Power rankings, worst team, eighth ranked team Browns. Okay,
I agree, number seven, just ahead of the Browns in fact,
fighting with the Browns, or the Browns could be fighting
with them. The Saints, yeah, I have them a little higher. Dude,
Archie Manning is not playing quarterbacks and I mean the grandfather,
(07:08):
not arch Manning.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
I'm going Spencer Rattler there. Well, you know this is
where your your team comes in from me.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Well, no, no, no, We're gonna better than the Giants, who
I have at number six, okay, because the Giants are terrible.
They're gonna be starting Jackson Dart by week eight because
Russell Wilson stinks. So the Giants at six and the
Titans at five. So my bottom four teams the power rankings, Titans, Giants, Saints,
Brown's Okay. The top four teams now is where things
(07:40):
get fun. Sure, and I feel good about seeing my
team in the top four power rankings. The Jets, Now,
these are your power ranks. The jet Mi mine will follow.
I have the Jets top four, top four power rankings.
That means like in the top half of yeah, best
last place.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
Yeah yeah, Jets rank twenty five through twenty eight.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yeah, let's go yeah. Seahawks number three, Okay, Bears number two. Wow,
look at you. I like the Bears. I've told you.
I like the Bears. I like Caleb Williams man, no
matter what I hear about how bad practice is going
with the Bears and the Raiders, of course the best
last place team in the way. That so in order
from the top down again, Raiders number one, Bears number two,
(08:24):
Seahawks three, Jets four in the power rankings for projected
last place teams in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Look at you, Raiders, Bears, Seahawks, Jets. Nicely done, nicely done.
I'd like the cut of your jib. I disagree because
the Raiders aren't.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Gonna win the many games. Sure they are, right, but
there still be But these are power rankings. These are
power rankings. Yeah, but there's gotta be an and you
can have a similar record and still be viewed as
a better team. Hey the Raid. The Raiders might not
have as good a record as the Bears, but they
play in a tougher division. So hey, you wait the
what's your system? You wait? The Bears? I have to
(09:00):
explain Gil Brandt. I don't have to explain what your system.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Most watching Gil Brandt autograph card because when he made
the Hall of Fame tops that's fifty bucks though, Okay,
oh yeah that's a lot. That's because I figured you
would just end up in a box. You wouldn't display Gilbrandt.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
No, I'd much rather you buy wings one night. We
can add that this week. I mean, so if my
Bill Brandt card went for you to buy wings.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
No, so that's final. All right, So Cleveland we agree. Uh,
they're they're the worst of the worst. I think as
we we drift a little further, I had the Jets
down there, just you just should be in a jerk
while you have the Jets.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
I just don't think the Titans and the Giants, and
you really think the Jets aren't as good as the Saints.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Come on, man, NFC South opportunities. Likewise, like why I
mean Tennessee vision.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Is terrible, they're terrible too, doesn't matter, it is it is.
But again, these are power rings. If you win a
couple more games than the Jets, but you play in
a really bad division, the power rank. No. But that
that's where it gets fun. The Jets division is tougher
than the AFC. I think I think any division is
(10:12):
tougher than the AFC. That's gonna be the worst division
in football.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, no, that's that most definitely is you have the
Jets lower than the Saints. Come on, because they're terrible.
Saints are right there with them. They're not running away.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Try to don't try to sugarcoat this by saying, oh,
they're just six. No, if the Jets played the Saints,
the Jets would kill. They would win, like sixteen to ten.
They would kill.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
You're telling me justin fields against Spencer Rattler Tyler shuck,
they were the ghost of Archie Manning.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Saints. That's not a draw. The Saints would get ten points,
the Jets defense would hold them to ten points. The
Jets would kick three field goals and get an interception
return for a touchdown. There's your Jets. Sixteen points right there.
They kill them, sixteen to ten, kill them. It's not
even close. Sixteen sixteen ten, it's it's not even close.
(11:03):
Are you going to average more than sixteen points a game? No,
I think we'll be I think if I had, i'd say,
if we average more than seventeen points a game the Jets,
I'd be surprised. Eh yeah, no, yeah, seventeen yeah, two
touchdowns at a field goal? Well, big offensive explosion might
be a two touchdown two field goal game. Look out,
I got to twenty. Remember, we're gonna run the football
(11:25):
a lot. Oh no, absolutely no. Brayleen Allen's a guy.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
I did a thing for the Fantasy Pros site where
they're like, all right, who's the guy you like? He's like, well,
Breece Hall is already telling people he's not the guy. Yeah,
it's And even if he's just you know, soft shoeing
that one and trying to downplay it so you won't
be disappointed, and he can point and say, hey, I
told you, Uh, Braylen Allen's going to see.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
A lot bet just inside mister outside does I mean?
It's it's like having you know, it's like having the Davises.
I like the way you did that. I like talk
to have a big year in fantasy. Is my number
one pick? Okay, all right, great, you're insane. That's good though.
(12:06):
So who do you have? Number one? Number one? Number?
Or number one? Is the number one? The best last
place team in the NFL?
Speaker 3 (12:15):
See they were a double double? Did you win team
last year? I got Seattle.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Oh, you're just picking Seattle because yeah, I don't know,
because it's an ex jet as the quarterback. No, but
like another division that I think is gonna be tough
all the way through, it will be tough, right, I
don't But again, you know me, I'm not a big
proponent that I think the forty nine ers are going
(12:40):
to be that great.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Well, that said a lot of guys that could fall
off the clift. We talked a lot about Christian McCaffrey
on the show. I think Arizona's going to be better, right,
they drafted a lot of defense. Uh, Skyler Murray will
do his usual first half heroics that might actually be
bolstered by the fact that the defense is better.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Yeah, No, I'm d I mean, I feel like you're
just picking x Jets at the top and the Jets
at the bottom. There might be something to that. Man, Look,
you got your ranking system, I've got mine. Like Ukon
Cornelia said, you eat what you like, and I'll eat
what I like. All Right, that's fine. There it is.
We'll tweet these out as well preseason power rankings for
(13:21):
the last place teams in the NFL. Congratulations Raiders. You
can hang a banner for this. I'm gonna be real
popular at a home with how low I have. The Bears.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Did a big rant on Baltimore radio earlier today to
where they're like, you know, we're like four minutes over now.
Like you asked me about the Bears, you knew the Risks.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Speaking of Raiders Seahawks, we could potentially see Raiders heroics.
Fourteen seconds left to go. Gino Smith just ran on
the field to give Cam Miller the quarterback of pep talk.
They've just completed a pass past midfield. The Raiders might
be one play away from kicking a game winning field goal.
(14:01):
Where's Janakowski at? Oh man, I'll tell you I go
super toe on his bam. It's in my head. It's
exciting right see Gino Smith running on the field. Hey,
I used to play here too, Man, I used to
play there too. You win this game for me. I
want to walk off this field. Me and Pete want
to walk off this field sticking our middle fingers up
and everybody you complete this past Cam Miller. Okay, you
(14:22):
realize my legacy's on the line here.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
You know what would be really funny though, if all
of a sudden Tom Brady just walked.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Down to the fields me. I bring winning here. Exit
out about a Fresca exit swollen dove. Jason Smith, Mike
Carmon coming up next. Yes, we have the latest believe
it or not, another sex toy was thrown on the
court in the WNBA game, plus evidence that potentially the
Anthony Richardson injury tonight was all my fault. That's next

Speaker 3 (15:44):
Well Dressed, Hobo, Underrated, overrated, properly rated. Bruce Springsteen, Oh Society,
way underrated. I know you like versus sports analysts because
he's the patron saint of sports analyst. Brus Springsteen has yes,
the opinion of Bruce Springsteen throughout you know, at the
(16:05):
average person thinking of music, Yeah, like Bruce. But Bruce
Springsteen had like two of the greatest album rock albums
of all time. I mean think of like, he's got
two that are probably on the top twenty list if
you're being fair, and he's got a couple others like Wow,
like Darkness on the Edge of Town. I listen to
that all the time.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
That's like my bad mood album, Like, if I'm in
a bad mood, I'm gonna put on Darkness of the
Edge of Town. Listen to Highway Patrolman, gonna listen to
Mansion on the Hill. You listen to Atlantic City, It listen.
It's my bet. But like you talk about Born to
Run and Uh and Born in the USA, like these
are two of the biggest albums in the history of
rock and roll at Nebraska and the Where You Go.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
But yeah, it's he's one of those guys that growing
up somehow my dad's eglectic music collection, Springsteen really didn't
play a role in any of that. Yeah, and he
popped in, you know, the Born in the USA and
when we started buying albums my older brother, and it
made its rounds, but never was really a fixture in
all of that.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
And then Bad Mood. You know where I'm going with
all of that.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Sure, sure that happens, plenty of metal and stuff that
takes that place country music to.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
You know, Now you want to know who is happy?
Who's that? How happy? Did the Raiders look to tie
tonight against the Sea? Yeah, Carlson misses a fifty five
yard field goal, gets blocked on the final play of
the game. So the Raiders fall short in winning the
Pete Carroll revenge game, but they get a tie. So okay, okay,
(17:30):
and Pete didn't do his whole run on the field. Yeah,
because obviously the game winning field goal was blocked. But
you know, okay, all right, you know still he goes
back there with a tie, so he and Gino Smith
can say, nah, I don't know, it's not really revenge,
but it's not really we got to put on us.
It's kind of just a I don't know, it's a
resumption game. You know what, I'm done.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
You know what, though he failed his backers, they were
five and a half point favorites.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Oh okay, so Pete failed. Yeah, but they would have failed.
He would have failed the back anyway because the game
winning field goal they're not covering. Again, he failed his
back all right.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Now, if you had him on the money line, because
you were back in Pete as a winner.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
He still failed you. Absolutely. Carlson failed you, Carlson. But
still now congrats. See this shows the moxie the Raiders have.
Because I told you the Raiders are gonna be the
best last place team in the NFL. They'll be of
all the last teams in last place in their division.
They will be the best. They were, they're ranked twenty fifth.
They were. Yes, they were getting absolutely obliterated tonight, and
(18:30):
they found a way after two bad Aid and O'Connell interceptions,
to come back and tie this game. Just think about that.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Those third stringers really beat up on the other third
stringers and away we went.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
They will be the best last place team in the NFL.
You compare all those last place teams at the end,
won't even be close. Raiders are the best. They will
be the best the now. Tonight was the real first
night of preseason in the NFL, because you know, the
Hall of Fame game is is, Yes, it's a game,
but you don't really get any star players playing because
(19:01):
it's an extra game. If you play the Hall of
Fame game, you get the extra game out there early. Yeah,
and generally that early in camp, teams don't want to
put their star players out there, so it's more of
a celebrations. Hey, we have the Hall of Fame induction
ceremony coming out and nickel back Yeah the game, Yeah,
I mean they we had the sweet ass Chargers uniforms
and the Lions and Dan Campbell was there and Harball
was there, so it was fun seeing them. But still, okay,
(19:23):
it's more of a celebration of the game. Now Now Tonight, tomorrow,
Saturdays we get real games with star players playing and
big things to break down. We get to say it.
So tonight was really was the first night of the
NFL season.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Is about as excited as you've ever gotten for preseason football.
And look, as a Jets fan, and I'm speaking as
a Bears fan, winning the offseason seems to be the
hallmark of our squads for a long time. I mean, look,
winning the offseason got Ryan Poles a two year contract
extension when he still had two years left on his deal.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Are you winning a season? You're just winning the off.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Seas But that's it. The worst two seasons, they're still hoping.
There's still excitement.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
There's two seasons in the NFL. There's the season and
there's the off season. But the Jets were off season
champions two years running. We were back to back off
season champions. And maybe you were the the off season
champion this year. I mean, think about that, and then
you got relegated back to back years. It doesn't matter.
But you look at it.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
I still have those offseason right now talking about stars playing,
and that's the big departure from what we've seen the
last couple of years, right because we've got some Joe
Burrow and Jamar Chase getting out there and getting after it.
We're gonna see more starters. We've always seen that with
the Chiefs. But you know, we're going away from what
Sean McVay wrought on the NFL these last couple of years.
(20:41):
People starting to look around, going maybe some extra refs
wouldn't be the worst thing.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
So here we go. But speaking of star players, Anthony Richardson,
you got hurt tonight, dislocated as pinky on a sack.
Pinky was sticking out in the way that pinkies don't
normally stick out. He was taken out of the game.
It's not known how long he's going to be out.
We talked about the epic failure of Shane Stiken saying, yes,
you're not. We're gonna put our quarterback out there, and
(21:08):
we're gonna sit three of our starting offensive linemen. And
what happened. Your quarterback got pancaked because of miss blocks
and you decided it was okay. To put out your
franchise player behind a bad offensive line. Nobody in the
NFL does it. The Jets don't even do that. You
think Mike Tomlin's putting Aaron Rodgers out there Saturday night
with three backups on the offensive line. No, nobody's doing it.
And the fact that Stiken talked about it after the
(21:29):
game and said, yeah, we're still okay doing that tells
me he's not ready for the gig of being an
NFL head coach. He's not ready because that's a stupid
decision to make to put out a start, starting level
caliber quarterback when you're gonna say, hey, three of our
starting offensive linemen are not gonna play. If I'm rich
as I go up and go, do you want me
to do you want me to get hurt?
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Like?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Really, what do you think?
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Man?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Do you still like me? Do I have a future here?
Because you put me out there behind a bed makeshift
offensive line night one where the offensive line is still
trying to figure out all kinds of chemistry We don't know.
We're looking for some kind of calls that we have
to pay attention to. We're looking for whatever kinks we
have to iron out here because it's the first time
we're getting out there under the lights and you're gonna
put three backups out there. Man, I'm Richardson, and I go, dude,
(22:13):
do you even know what it means to be a
head guy? Look? I might not know what it means
to be a quarterback because I can't stay on the field,
But do you know what it means to be a
head coach? Because nobody makes that decision.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Now to be fair, I mean even in his post game,
and this is where I have to uh, I'll disagree
in terms of because Anthony Richardson's shown to be a
guy who will say what's on his mind. You know,
I left the game because I was tired. If he
really had a problem, I don't know that he would
have been as diplomatic and as self aware of Yeah,
(22:43):
I've got to, you know, channel my inner wedding crashers
and yell hot route and get the ball out. He
instead of getting plowed, he didn't see the guy because
he came in unblocked. That's not on the quarterback when
a guy comes in unblocked and wrecks the quarterback.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
But there's a bunch of quarterbacks.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
That are winner and other means to say, no, that's
the quarterbacks. Got gotta read that and understand that you
get the ball out, you.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Put the play. See, the thing is, the play is
irrelevant because you decided it was okay to put your
franchise player out potentially still be your franchise player, or
at least your starting quarterback, which is a pretty important
position in the NFL. He still decided it's okay to
put him out there behind a patchwork offensive line where
you decided to rest three of your starters, clue two
of them that are pretty good, Like, I don't, I don't. Again,
(23:31):
I don't know any team that would do that. The
Raiders wouldn't even do that, all right, The Jets wouldn't
even do that, And I know that, Hey, I've seen
the Jets do some crazy ass things, man, I've seen
I mean, okay, the Jets now wouldn't do it because I
actually watch Rex Ryan do that with Mark Sanchez about
a decade ago, which again is you know, Rex Ryan's
not a coach in the NFL for the reason. So
I did see the Jets now I wouldn't even do that.
(23:53):
I don't know any team that would say, yeah, here's
a guy we took in the top five that we
still think could be great, that maybe could be our
starting quarterback. And yeah, we're okay ironing out the Kikes
with an offensive line, throwing you out there behind them,
but doing a little bit of digging.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
And obviously we're not dialed into every rep taking during
you know, Colts practices or you know most teams for
that matter. As you get onto the field and you've
got a lot of injuries that they're dealing with, and
then you got veteran players that sometimes can say, hey,
I'm not in right. For the Bengals, they all played right.
(24:31):
They said, well all for one, one for all, and
got their reps in because while September has not been kind,
particularly the first two weeks of the season under the
Zax Tailor regime, so you know, do something even if
it's wrong, kind of philosophy of getting guys out on
the field. In this case, man Anthony Richardson's probably gonna
be playing behind makeshift lines. And if he would have
(24:54):
lost the coin toss and would have been the starter,
you know next week.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
They shouldn't have put Daniel Jones out there either, because
he could start. They got to get res No, they don't.
Speaker 5 (25:02):
Not.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
If you're not, you're not. You're not Matthew Staff and
watch TV for a month.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
If you're not gonna start your offensive line, you're not
gonna put your guy still playing. Yeah, but not a
good come on, but not? Maybe not.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I don't know how much they grade higher and lower
than the starters. But these guys are trying to earn
jobs too, just like Richardson.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
No, I get it, you're earning a job, but none
of these guys were taking the top five in the draft. Hey,
this is a pretty valuable commodity that we have on
the team, and we're gonna throw him out there behind
a bunch of guys that, Hey, we know, maybe he's
gonna get killed today because he's gonna get man.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
That's just some man and just absolutely annihilated. Yeah, that
top five pick that was so long ago.
Speaker 4 (25:47):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
He's a jag. He's a quarterback fighting for a job.
Ley Leonard out there in the beginning and he plays
three and a half quarters. That's what you do when
you're not gonna start your offense of line.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Wait, and then three weeks from now, we're still saying, hey,
who's gonna line up at quarterback.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Call it in the air.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
Are you going pool Q?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Dark night here? Make it quick? I mean, what are
we doing now? I want to say this. I want
to be fair. If I'm going to criticize Shane Stikeen
for making a horrendous decision again, I wonder if he's
really up for being a head coach in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Well, he's on the hot seat along time. Mike McDaniel
went on some others.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
But I want to say this because it's it's partly
my fault as well. All right, I want your fault
on the new preseason. Yeah, I have to. I have
to take responsibility for this because it's really it might
it's it's it is my fault. So today, uh, Pam
and I and Zoe go into Mavro, one of our
our big place we'd like to go get coffee drinks
(26:42):
at So is that because it's derivative of Maverick. I
don't know what. I kept calling it Marveo and Pam's
going it's Mavro, And now I do it on purpose
and I say we'll go to Marvel. It's Mavro, Like
this is kind of fun thing. So we go in
and I'm wearing a Michigan hat and Pam's wearing Michigan
T shirt. And the guy that works he says, oh,
don't tell me you guys are Michigan. And I'm like, oh, okay,
(27:03):
well what tips you off? And I said, oh, not me.
I married into it. But you know she went there,
and party goes, oh, please don't tell me you. Uh
you went to Ohio State because I like coming in
here like wow, PAMs, and he goes, no, no, no, I'm
actually India. I went to Indiana. I was like, oh,
I said, wow, dude. I said, how happy you had
the best football season?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
And I don't know, I think in school history.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
I said, you are you really got a playoff berth
you didn't deserve.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
No.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
I didn't say that because the guy was making my coffee.
So I didn't want to say anything that he's going
to get a med. Yeah. I don't want to. I
don't want to make anybody mad. So I said I said, hey,
in a great season. He goes, yeah, I guess yeah.
I'm honestly, I'm I'm way bigger a bigger Colts fan
than I am an Indiana football fan. I said, well,
cause you really haven't had any seasons. I mean, what
do you got to go back to Antoine Randall ll
before that was Anthony Thompson, right, So he said yeah,
(27:51):
bigger cause you know, I said, well, good luck tonight,
and he goes, ah, you know Richardson. Richardson hasn't been good.
Daniel Jones stinks. And I'm like, okay, I said yeah,
And I'm like, and he doesn't know that, you know,
I'm I'm on the radio or anything or a personality.
I'm just a dude talking football with You had a
shirt that said don't you know who I am? But hey,
I'm expecting a discount here. Uh so? And I said yeah,
(28:12):
but I mean, look, Daniel Jones will be fine. You
have a lot of weapons on offense, right, you have
really good weapons at receiving a really good tight end.
And Taylor's fantastic goes yeah, but you know, I mean
we've seen this, We've been told, you know, we've been
told that we're going to be supposed to be good
for a long time. I just don't know. And I
said yeah, and then this is where it's my fault.
And this is where this is where it takes a
decided turn because I said to him, because I said
(28:35):
to him, I said, well, look at it this way.
As long as nobody gets hurt, it'll be fine. So
it's my fault. Did you say that?
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Wait, knowing you've got a quarterback who a taps out
because he's tired.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Yeah, and be can't avoid a hit. Oh yeah yeah yeah, yeah, No,
that's and ude, he's super Dave Osborne on a football field.
I said that like two hours before the game start,
like the guys are already on the field warming up.
And I said that to him, and I said, yeah,
as long as nobody gets hurt, you'll be fine. He goes, yeah, Okay,
Now I can't go back in there. Now he's got
(29:08):
a thing here. It's like Chubbs. I'm going to coffee
being in Starbucks now the rest of my life. I'm
going I'm going to easy it. I'm going to Easier.
I can't go in there.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
You had a craft coffee and a guy who kind
of liked you. I have to side with the Michigan gear.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
But I gotta go stand outside and if I hate
you going in here, Yeah, how about I'll pay for
your coffee if you get me this drink. Well, why
can't you go in? It's a long story, but I'll
pay for your coffee. Oh all right, sure, as.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
So long as you don't have one of those specific
you know, coffee drinks.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I'm pretty, I'm pretty gonna, I'm pretty easy. I'm pretty
when it comes out. I don't go too crazy with
the Give me a half calf, double calf, twisted lemon?
Uh that yeah, almond, almond milk, soy milk if you
have it? No, no, no, I'm omaha omaha, yeah no,
I'm okay. But I mean I gotta think I'll be
able to. Hey, I'll buy your drink if you buy
me one. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
Now you're like standing outside, mister Wells.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
They're asking an adult to buy me a coffee. If
I'm giving them money to buy a coffee, that's not
I guess that.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Looks a little an I'm not really banned.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
I just you just don't ask questions. I'm paying for
your coffee. Go inside, get it for me. Come on, man,
what'd you do? Tell not to find out? What's trending
in the wide world of sports? From Monzi Millennials, Manzie,
what do you got?
Speaker 2 (30:27):
What else is your fault?
Speaker 3 (30:28):
Today?
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Jason Ah, that's it. That's a big thing. That's my fault.
That's a big things. That's what you call it.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Callback smaller transgressions that may or may not have occurred
during this show, but that's a bigger one.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
That's that's the biggest one. Yeah, that's the one I
always forget. Is the phrase, if you take care of
the big things, the little things take care of themselves,
or you take care of the little things and the
big things take care of themselves.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
I think the latter is a more impressive. Okay, the
Devils of the details kind of process to me, sure, right,
because if you take care of the nuts and bolts,
then the larger machine's gonna work.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Wow, exactly. You put that on a T shirt. He
put that on a T shirt.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
NFL preseason action three games on Thursday night that they
have all wrapped up. The latest one ended in a
tie the Seahawks and the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Did you bet that the game would finish in a tie? No?
Speaker 4 (31:23):
I had to look it up if it could end
in a tie. I didn't know because it was preseason,
so I wasn't sure. And then I thought for a
second that maybe the Raiders were gonna win. It because
they were down double digits and and then they came
back in the second half. Daniel Carlson hit a fifty
one yard field goal with one minute left to tie
the game. And then Vegas gets the ball back and
he goes for a fifty five yard field goal to
(31:45):
win it, and the Seahawks block it. That's how the
game ends, twenty three apiece. The Ravens defeated the Colts
twenty four to sixteen. Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson, as you
guys were talking about, took a hard sack very early
in the game, dislocated a right pinky finger on his
throwing hand and is.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Considered day today.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Super Bowl champion Eagles defeated the Bengals thirty four to
twenty seven. Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase both played one quarter.
Burrow completed nine to ten passes for one hundred and
twenty three yards two touchdowns, One of them went to Chase,
who call all four of his targets for seventy seven
yards and that touchdown. Friday's preseason action Lions at Falcons,
(32:22):
Browns at Panthers. Both of those started at seven Eastern
Commanders at Patriots, that's at seven thirty Eastern. This is
Friday's preseason action. Other NFL news, Texans safety CJ. Gardner
Johnson did not tear his ACL during today's practice. He's
expected to miss some time, but the injury is not
expected to be season ending. Unfortunately, Chargers Pro Bowl left
tackle Rashaun Slater tore his left pateller ten and in
(32:45):
practice he will be out for the season. When it
comes to baseball, the Pirates shout out the Red seven zero.
Paul Skins pitched six innings, gave up seven hits, no runs,
struck out eight Braves came back to beat the Marlins
eight six, and the Mariners walked it off forty three
against the White Sox on an RBA single from Dominic
can Zone in the eleventh inning. And in the w NBA,
the Mercury crushed the Fever ninety to sixty, Elyssa Thomas
(33:08):
eighteen points, eleven rebounds, Tennis becoming the first player in
WNBA and w NBA history to record three consecutive triple doubles.
And that is not where things went flying. That they
went flying in Chicago, yep. And it was purple, and
it was purple and it was purple. Next one better
be a different color.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
