Speaker 2 (00:22):
You're listening to the Best of the Odd Couple with
Chris Bruce and Ron Parker.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
But sometimes there are serious topics that we broached because
they intersect with sports, and one today, you know, Deshaun Watson,
it'll be both. There's obviously a lot of football there
and it was gonna be mainly this football topic of
what he just doesn't look that good.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
No, he's not.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
There's no energy, no flash, no pizazz, there's nothing there.

Speaker 4 (00:55):
He seemed like a shell of himself.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
That's a great that's probably the more accurate, Like you
just Shay, but he really looks like a shell of himself.
Rob against Dallas, they were man handled thirty three to.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Seven, and the offensive line wasn't no help. So I'm
not trying to blame it all on him.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Chris, but good quarterbacks, you know, they handle offense brad
Perty's offensive line was ranked twenty first in the league
last year. You know, Joe Burrow had a poor offensive
has had poor offensive lines at times in Cincinnati.

Speaker 5 (01:28):
Like it.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
You that that's a part of it, but it's not
the full thing.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
Rob.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
He was twenty four for forty five. That's barely fifty percent.
I can't even I know.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
They were downstandards, they were down big, so you had
to throw and not run. But Mike got forty five passes, Chris, Ye,
like in the old days, that was Terry Bradshaw.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
That was a four game stretch for.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
No doubt, no doubt about forty five passes. Dodd one
hundred and sixty nine yards, one touchdown, two picks and
a lot of the talk today, Rob was what should
they benching for Jamis Winston?

Speaker 4 (02:07):
That really was the discussion. I got a better And
now this afternoon.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
Or this evening, Rob g there's been a report that
really takes this thing in a.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
More serious direction.

Speaker 6 (02:21):
That's right, Chris said. It is a very disappointing story
because a new civil lawsuit has been filed in Houston
accusing Deshaun Watson of sexual assault and battery from an
incident in October of twenty twenty. According to the filing,
the lawsuit aledges that on a first date with a woman,

(02:42):
while she was in the bathroom applying makeup, she came
to her bedroom and defined Watson completely naked on her bed,
face down on his stomach, requesting that she massaged his buttocks.
Things progressed as Watson turned over demanded that she massage him,
this time gesturing towards is growing. Somehow, Watson asked her

(03:02):
what she wanted to do instead of shit. She didn't
want to do this, and he ended up partially partially
disrobing her, penetrating her vagina without consent implicit or explicit,
before she eventually manages to escape, grabbing a heavy piece
of decor for self defense. Watson, taking it back quote
stormed out of her apartment following her.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
And this is a civil suit, civil lawsuit.

Speaker 6 (03:27):
The NFL has declined comment, and you recall that he
was suspended for eleven games from the previous slew of incidences.
Should be noted that in their punishment, the NFL reserved
the right to revisit any additional punishment. More information come
out involving any of the previous cases because this is

(03:48):
a new case. We'll see how that goes from there.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
And this is also because initially, when I saw the
headline and I'm reading it and I read the dates,
it felt like initially it was just not that was okay,
but it was more of the same, right, it was like, okay,
another woman's come forward.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Interesting, why didn't she get involved in that other lawsuit?

Speaker 3 (04:07):
But if you when once you read the details, she's
alleging rape, right, right, Like that's a whole because none
of the other ones it was it was about right,
it was it was a massage that turned sexual, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
But not she's saying she was forcibly raped. Yeah, and
we don't know, Chris. These are alleged allegations. Nobody knows.
He hasn't been convicted of anything, So we should.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
Start from there.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
And I'll say this, Chris, and a man is innocent
until proving guilty and that That's not what I'm saying here.
But there comes at times when you can just decide
this is not what you want anymore. And I'm talking
about the distraction of it all. And it would be

(04:55):
different if Deshaun Watson was a was playing quarterback. Well, Chris,
you know you'll bend over backwards. Bryant, Kobe Bryant, who
had a rape case on it.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
He was going to trial, flying the trial and then
flying back to the game that night from Colorado to La.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
I was covering that series.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
That would never happen today, but it was a different
time and the NBA was cool with it that he
flew the Lakers plane like nobody thought anything of it
like that wouldn't again, to.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
Your point, innocent until approving, no doubt, no doubt.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
And and here my only point on if I'm the Browns,
I just don't want to deal with this anymore.

Speaker 4 (05:40):
We we we made a bad deal, Chris. We signed
a guy.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
We thought we were getting the all Pro Pro Bowl
quarterback who was dynamic and all that we thought we
were getting them that didn't happen, And now here we
are off to a bad start to season and now
the distraction of yet more baggage or more issues involving

(06:09):
Deshaun Watson. If I'm the Browns ownership or front office,
I don't know. If I I think I don't want
to deal with it anymore, and I have to figure out, Chris,
do I find lawyers?

Speaker 4 (06:20):
To look for moral turp to two to find.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
A a you know, something in the contract where you
can get where you can get out of the contract
and say, you know, because of this, we're not going
to pay you or you know what I mean. And
then and moral clauses are put into these kind of
deals all the time that involve large sums of money.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
Roger, do we know was there anything in his contract?
Because the Browns traded for him after all this stuff,
not this new allegation, but the other allegations had come out,
and they still traded for him.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
So do you know was there morals clause or anything
put in there? Anything in story?

Speaker 6 (07:01):
I don't see anything specifically, but almost all of these
contracts have some kind of around, Like.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
We said, this is alleging rape.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
So look, if I'm the Browns innocent to proven guilty,
I'm not abandoning you. You know, you got to get
your legal team together and you have to defend yourself
against this.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
And we are looking.

Speaker 3 (07:26):
For what you know, it might not be that deep
of a look, but if we can, if we can
get out of your contract, we're getting out of it
the period. If I'm the Browns, if we can get
out of your contract.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
We're getting out of it because to.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Your point, Rob, and it's it's sad because whether you're
a superstar and playing like it or you're just a
backup player, the allegations are the same and they're terrible.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
But we know the world we.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Live in, and if he was an All Pro quarterback
playing well, they would do anything they could to try
to make it work or figure it out Chris, because
he's playing well. But when you're not playing well, it
becomes a distraction to the team.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
And that's right. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
I mean again, I'm trying to get out of the
contract period. Whether I would cut him at the moment,
I don't know that I do that. It's a lot
of money there, Hey you still Rob, They still owe
him one hundred and thirty eight million, and on the
cap next year, whether he plays there or not, the
cap hit is seventy two point.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Nine million dollars.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
The next year twenty twenty six, cap hit seventy two
point nine dollars. Even if you get rid of him,
and then the following year he's not even under contract,
it'll still be twenty six million. And so obviously he's untradeable.
Just let me say this from a football standpoint, putting.

Speaker 4 (08:57):
The allegations aside.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
A lot of people have called for them to benching
Rob before this story even came out, and they said
go to Jamis Winston. I've said I would give him
a few more games. They played it. They played Jacksonville
next week, which is a winnable game and a losable game.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
There level team be a good game.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
No, it's not a layup, but the next week is
a layup. That's the Giants.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
And to me, I.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Would be pointing from a football standpoint, I would be
pointing to the Giants game, seeing how we play and
he plays then. But that's with one caveat Rob, and
we've talked about things like this before. If Jameis Winston
has been out playing him dramatically throughout preseason and the
players all see whether it was going into last going

(09:49):
into yesterday's game, and then yesterday's game was just further evidence.
If the players Rob are like, man, Jamis is way
better than this dude, and they're seeing and they feel
like he's only playing because of his contract, then you
might need to bench him now. Because Rob, we've talked
about it before. If your players know that you're playing

(10:13):
a guy that's not the best option. Then why am
I getting?

Speaker 4 (10:17):
Why am I busting my butt? You know what?

Speaker 3 (10:20):
My back hurts, my leg hurts, I'm getting I'm getting
out of this, Like, why am I putting my health
at risk when the team's not even trying to win
because you're not playing.

Speaker 4 (10:31):
The best players.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
If that's the way players feel, you need to probably
need to bench him now.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
NFL analysts our man with the funky theme music, Rod
Woodson Row, Rod, how are you man?

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Good to have you back on.

Speaker 5 (11:42):
Hey, I'm doing good Man another year. Let's see what's
tapping in this crazy NFL.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Well, you know Rod that this is Chris's last week
on the Odd Couple.

Speaker 4 (11:52):
He's uh, Rob is firing me.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Then he's on his way. He wants to focus only
on television, which and we wish him.

Speaker 4 (12:01):
Well.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
We got a new Odd Couple partner, Kelvin Washington, starts
next Monday.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
So this is it for Chris.

Speaker 5 (12:09):
Yeah, chrisy, I'm going to miss your man. I do
see you on TV over there. So keep it up, man,
thank you man. You just just tell everybody you just
too good for being on the radio.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
Exactly.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
Your faith, your faith, Your faith is made for TV.

Speaker 4 (12:25):
That's it. That's it. He doesn't want to put in
the hard work.

Speaker 3 (12:28):
Well, look, I will miss our Monday, our Monday interviews
with you, that's for sure. But uh, let's let's make
this one a good one as the last one. So
let's start with Caleb Man. Obviously, a ton of hype
about Caleb Williams. He didn't live up to it, but
they did get a w So what'd you make What
did you make of the hype and what did you

(12:49):
think of what he did on Sunday?

Speaker 5 (12:51):
Well, I mean, listen, everybody wants a rookie to play
like he's a three year, four year, five year, six
year vet, and it's gonna be some go on playing sometimes.
You know, some players are going to have some good
games and some players they won't, or some games they won't.
Their defense played tremendous football and there special team's got

(13:13):
a block kicked and returned for a touchdown. So but
you win as a team, you lose this team. And
I think he'll keep growing. He is really talented, very athletic. Uh,
he can do a lot of good things in and
out of the pocket. So I think there's gonna be
a lot of positives for him to build off of.
Obviously he didn't throw for three hundred and fifty yards
and three touchdowns, but maybe not that many rookies can

(13:36):
do that in the first of the especially the first
game of their professional career.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
Yeah, they what was it?

Speaker 1 (13:43):
I saw three rookies who played and they had no
touchdowns and two picks for all yesterday yesterday uh and
uh Bo Nicks bow knicks right. Both Knicks had two
interceptions and none of those three quarterbacks had had a touchdown, So.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
It is part of it.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
Let me ask you, though, My question would be Daniel
Jones and I don't want to beat a dead horse. Well,
we've been talking about for a long time. The Giants
made a decision. They picked Daniel Jones over Sat Kwan Barkley.
I get it, it's a quarterbacks league. I don't know
about him as a quarterback. Can he get any better
or not?

Speaker 5 (14:22):
Man? First of all, I wouldn't have picked Kwan. I
wouldn't pick Barkley Kwan out and I'm going to put
that one. But you know, can't he get better? I
don't know, I just don't. We haven't seen it. This
is the this is the thing. Normally, great players you
see slashes of their greatness somewhere along the line, and

(14:46):
the question has to be have we seen those slashes nights?
I haven't. But nonetheless, he's still got an outstanding contract,
He's gonna make a lot of money. He's there the future,
I mean, he's their future franchise quarterback for them for
years to come. Can he get better? I just I

(15:09):
just haven't seen the flashes that you would normally see
from really good players in spurts, and I just haven't
seen them from you.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
The good thing for them is remember that that deal,
only the eighty million in the first two years was guaranteed,
so they will be able to move on from him
after this season, So that that's their still gave somehow, Yeah,
that was a mistake, but they'll they'll be able to
move on.

Speaker 4 (15:34):
But somebody who's not gonna be able to move on
is the Browns.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
And so what how how surprised are you that Deshaun
Watson has not been able to show any like even
a hint of what he was in Houston? And do
you think it's time for them to put Jameis Winston
in instead of you know, and just bench emin eat
the money.

Speaker 5 (15:57):
And that was I don't know why he can't be
that same quarterback that we saw in Houston.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
Yeah, he has no.

Speaker 3 (16:08):
Energy not is it?

Speaker 5 (16:12):
Is it the guaranteed money? He's getting the money no
matter how you play, right right? So is it that
money that he's getting that he does have that drive?
I don't really know. I'm not in the locker room.
I really don't know him as a as a as
a person. But there's a lot of question marks there
and to see why and he hasn't he has tools,

(16:33):
he got played. I no, Chubb didn't play because he's injured.
I know that, but just to see some really great quarterbacks.
Great quarterbacks make their receivers better, right, he has good
receivers and he's still struggling, and he has good tight ends.
He's still struggling. And when Chubb is healthy, they got
a good running game and he struggles. So exactly what

(16:55):
it is I can't put. I can't pinpoint it. I
can just say I don't know. If it's just the money.
He got the money, he got his big payday, and
he hasn't been the same He has been the same
player since he got that payday.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Let me ask you this, Rock, because you obviously were
a great defensive player. If jamis because there's a lot
of talk about should they go with Jameis Winston, who
we know seems to be well liked when he's in
different organizations and buy his teammates and stuff. If you're
a defensive player on the Browns are you? Is there

(17:29):
a part of you or maybe all of you, is thinking, man,
this dude is only starting because of the contract, and
they're not putting the best quarterback out there to give
us a chance to win. Like, if they're feeling that way,
is there a chance for dissension in the locker room?
And is that something you have to really be careful
with as a coach because even if you want to
play him because of the contract, your players are saying,

(17:52):
he's not our best quarterback, so you're not giving us
a fair shot at win it.

Speaker 5 (17:57):
Most coaches is going to pay and play their best
players sometimes in some organizations. I don't know how the
Cleveland Browns are ran. I don't know if you know,
Haslin is part of it and he's making decisions and
they're telling him because he has that money that's coming
to him. His contracted states the way it is that
you got a plan. I don't know if that's the case.

(18:19):
But normally coach has played the best players. And you know, Kim,
can you have a revolt? Yeah, maybe you can if
they get it once they get to a point where
they have a players only meeting. Yeah, you know, you
got some issues in Cleveland.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Let me ask you, Uh, I don't understand Jerry Jones,
Like he does the same thing over and over. He
strings people along, Oh my god, he's not gonna pay,
not gonna pay, and then he always rolls over and pays,
makes everybody hies paid.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
Why can't he just get a deal done and not
do all this?

Speaker 1 (18:55):
I don't understand that he always rolls over at the end.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
What says, do you think he does it so he
can be talked about?

Speaker 4 (19:08):
Is that what attention?

Speaker 5 (19:11):
He likes attention? Yeah, right, he likes attentions. So does
he do it knowing in his mind that he's gonna
sign the sign the player anyway, but he wants some
type of attention. I don't really know. It just doesn't
make sense because for the most part, he's he has
given the guy the contracts they need the contracts. Well,

(19:34):
exactly why you don't do it from day one or
two weeks into it? I really doesn't make any sense,
so that.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
You're not missing practice and it's not the same old conversation.
It just doesn't seem It's one thing, if you're not
going to pay the guy, then I get it right,
Like there's a debate.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
But every single guy, right.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Let me let me ask you this, uh right before
where you go, and it's about the Ravens and Lamar Jackson.
We saw him Thursday night against Kansas City. What were
you thinking when you saw Lamar Jackson running the way
he was? I mean he was running into guys, he

(20:18):
was looking for contact.

Speaker 4 (20:20):
Trying to run people over.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
I don't think your last two months, if he keeps
doing that, what was your thought as you see him
doing that?

Speaker 5 (20:28):
I don't think that's going to be his game plan,
his motive every week, weekend and week out. I think
this first week out playing the Kansas City Chief, the
team that beat him in the championship game, that was
in the back of his head, you know, trying to
see I really believe that they got to find a
balance on how to use Derrick Henry, right, I really,

(20:51):
I really believe they got to fit because Derrick Henry
is better as he gets more touches. And I know
I know coach Harball Harp that he talked about him
a little bit today talking about, hey, listen, it's going
to come that he's going to get twenty some touches
in the game. But I think they're going to work
their way to that. And at the end of the day,
as bad as they played, they still had an opportunity

(21:13):
to win the football game. And I don't but I
don't think Lamar is going to be that. I don't
think he's going to try to, you know, scramble and
run everybody over. He does feel good though. He looks
way faster, way quicker than he did last year. He
lost that weight. He feels athletic again, and he felt it,
you know, in that first week, and I think he
wanted to win that football game. So I think it's

(21:35):
going to come. But I think it's a learning curve
and it's going to be one of those things that
as he gets going and Derek is getting really comfortable
and Todd Munkin is learning how to use them, then
he won't take all those those runs and he won't
be trying to run people those dvs over. I think
if its a dB, he might always try to run
the corners over. He ain't trying to run no linebackers over.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
All right, that's our Mayor Rod. Great stuff is always Rode.
Thank you man, I'll.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
Miss you man.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
Miss I'll all right.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Peace, be sure to catch live editions of The Odd
Couple with Chris Brussard and Rob Parker weekdays at seven
pm Eastern four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and
the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
Rob G didn't have my microwave take ready.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
Why I say I've been saying all off season and
I said it again Friday, Dak Prescott will get signed
before the season.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
Why didn't you break a story in if you had it,
I was just saying it. I wasn't reporting nothing. I
don't report break stories no more. I was just.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
Saying my belief, my strong belief, was that this is
Jerry Jones.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
I mean that he always at the East, but you
didn't believe he was gonna came.

Speaker 4 (22:57):
I know, I get a deal with I didn't know
it was going to be here, Chris, I did. I'll
say that, yes.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
Forty million dollars, sixty million dollars a year, two hundred
and thirty one million guaranteed to Dak Prescott Ross. So
so what do you think just the whole thing, like
the the way Jerry Jones dragged this out like he
always does, and the money that Dak Prescott got, I just.

Speaker 4 (23:24):
I wouldn't have paid Dak Prescott.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
I'm just I've seen him for seven eight years in
the postseason. I just think he might. What's the right
way to me? He's a more melanin Tony Romo. Can
I say that? I mean, like Melani is more Yeah,
more melan in, Yes, Tony Romo, Chris, And if you black,

(23:51):
you go. I didn't want to say it like that,
but you get my point. Tony Romo had really good
seasons for the Cowboys.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
Chris, Am I wrong on that? No?

Speaker 1 (23:59):
No, no, really good seasons, but they never could win
with Tony Romo as quarterback. And we've had a good
simple size. Could they win somehow somewhere? I guess they could.
I'm not saying that they can't win. If you get
a great defensive performance and he doesn't make any mistakes

(24:20):
or whatever, sure he can win.

Speaker 4 (24:21):
But do I really believe.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
That Dak Prescott should be the hot is worth the
money that they just paid. I don't believe that. Go
look at the last couple of playoff games when Green
Bay came in there, and then the one before that
against the forty nine ers when that awful the offense
was awful. I mean, this is what we've seen in
those moments of spots. I'm just not a fan, Chris.

(24:43):
And I've told you for a long time when you
thought he was even like on his way to being
the league, you remember that, I haven't changed.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
I never was. He's a dak.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
Garart two quarterback, yeah right, a notch below that, like
you know the top five is or whatever.

Speaker 4 (24:57):
Yeah, but I did think he was gonna becoming a
and he's really good.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
No, I'm just saying, to start all, I'm saying, not
been consistent the whole time on him. I'm saying I've
not changed. I'm just all, you've been consistent on him,
on him, that's all.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
But as we always say, you don't you don't win
it until you win it.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
No, I get rid.

Speaker 3 (25:19):
Peyton Manning didn't win a Super Bowl until his ninth
year in the league.

Speaker 4 (25:23):
But Peyton Manning was winning m v P. He's better,
Yeah he was. I'm saying that he was winning MVP
and that.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
But that goes for Lamar Jackson too, right, Lamar Jackson
hasn't had playoff success and has actually played He's one league,
he's he's won MVPs. But I'm just saying, if you're
if I'm back in the second. That was second last
year in m VP. But he had a chance to
win it.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
No, he didn't.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
He was second.

Speaker 4 (25:49):
He went that he wasn't. I mean he finished second.
I mean that that's not in the running.

Speaker 1 (25:55):
No, because Lamar got all the first place votes except
for one. I mean, they changed the way that they voted,
and I'm just saying he was really second, Chris, I mean.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
He actually really was.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
I gap obviously, but I'm just saying he was the
second in the MVP vote.

Speaker 4 (26:12):
Get it.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
But but I'm I'm saying that he had a he
had a very good year. Now he's but he's not
an MVP winner.

Speaker 4 (26:19):
I give you that.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
The difference between is that those two guys you're talking
about one m VPS before they won, so they have
a trajectory where you feel way better that that they're
going to get it done.

Speaker 4 (26:30):
At some point.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
I don't believe that after eight seasons with Dak, Prescott
hasn't been a rob G is it eight years?

Speaker 4 (26:37):
I don't, But I think and I hear you.

Speaker 3 (26:41):
I look, I tend to think the cow Now you know,
my my beef with the Cowboys, even beyond Dak is
their culture. I don't think the culture, the tone that
Jerry Jones sets is conducive to winning.

Speaker 4 (27:00):
At the highest, highest, highest level.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
But so I tend to agree with you that I
don't think they're gonna win it, but they got a chance.
I do think you can win a super Bowl with
Dak Prescott as.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
Your quarterb I'm not saying you can't.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
Yeah, the question though everybody would have said that about
Tony Romo too, and they never got there. I'm just saying,
I hear you. I'm not saying he'll never win a
super Bowl under any circumstance. I would never say that,
right because we see way lesser quarterbacks Chris win super Bowls.
We saw a broken down Peyton Manning with tape and

(27:36):
glue and popsicle sticks to his neck win a Super
Bowl for Denver, didn't we I just gave you the
numbers earlier.

Speaker 4 (27:43):
He was terrible.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Yeah, the thing is this, And look, I get you
in your view that hey start all over because he
has He's two and five in the playoffs. Romo was
two and four in the playoffs. But Rob, you know,
if my thing was this, you know I was saying
this during last season or right after the season and

(28:05):
all that. The problem is if you would have let
that go, you're basically starting all over and you don't know, Rob,
it could be five years, it could be ten years
before you get that next franchise quarterback. I get it, Risks,

(28:28):
right and sometime, and they just gave Ceedee.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
Lamb all that money.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
So look at Devontae Adams, you know, melting away, withering
away in.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Las Vegas because he's got no quarterback that.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
Could beat Ceedee Lamb and the Cowboys if they let
that go. Vegas has a good defense. Rob G knows
that's his team. Rob G, where you you have a
unique perspective on this because you do have a team
that's got talent but not a quarterback. So would you

(29:02):
like you probably love to have dak Press.

Speaker 6 (29:04):
I would love to have Dakota ring Prescott as my quarterback.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
See that's the thing, right, Like Pittsburgh would take him,
the Raiders would take him.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
But it doesn't mean that they would win anything even
if they got him.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
I get that, Chris.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
I mean, sure you look at the numbers and the
regular season and all that other stuff, but if you're
trying to win a championship, he is not like automatically
you're gonna win. No, And that's what I'm saying. I'm
just not a fan.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
I'm not.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
Look, the thing is with the sixty million dollars, here's
the thing. I mean, sixty million dollars. Your quarterback's making
that much, you're not. I mean, yeah, you can keep
kicking the can down the road, right, deferring money, deferring money.
But at some point, you know, it's Jerry Jones gonna

(29:55):
do that, right, So some of these guys they're not
gonna have as us And man, Rob, you got this
San Francisco game on. They keep they are killing themselves
with penalties. They just had a touchdown run taken back
because of penalty.

Speaker 4 (30:11):
Uh, and they've had a few other big plays, but
didn't they just get a touchdown? This is a second one. Oh,
this is the flag? You got it? So But anyway, yeah,
I what do you think? Like my thing too? Though?

Speaker 5 (30:24):
Rob?

Speaker 3 (30:25):
And this again, I just never wavered because I've seen
Jerry's act. But why like he could have done this
and maybe gotten back for less than sixty million, Rob,
had he done it in March, had he done it
in April? You know, giving fifty seven million a year
and now again, I get it. Three million a year,

(30:47):
isn't you know, a ton of money.

Speaker 4 (30:49):
I don't get it either.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
I have no idea like the thinking behind it or
why they do what they do. It doesn't make any sense.
It just doesn't if you're going to give them the money. Arection, Chris,
what is the difference.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
You lose out on training? Can't run our back practice?
But ceedee Lamb didn't exactly like why you set him back?
You could say whatever you want, you set them back
for no reason, right, He's like he's like, you know,
the the guy that tries to act like he's so
tough and talks all his mess, but at the end
of the day just crumbles the.

Speaker 4 (31:25):
Parent, who oh, you grounded.

Speaker 3 (31:28):
You can't go to the prolem you you you can't
talk on the phone, give me your phone, you get.

Speaker 4 (31:34):
All that, and then at the end of the day,
you just crumbled.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
You a crystal who crumbled the most crumble?

Speaker 4 (31:40):
We didn't crumble. We nobody had to be the soft spot.

Speaker 3 (31:44):
Christ somebody's got ground They laughed now about y'all were
always grounding us. You're grounded, But they we taught our
girls early. If my girls really weren't didn't give us
much problem because early on, I mean, from young disciplined
them and I believe it in spanking.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
But but you know what, I don't know when they
got older, they weren't a problem.

Speaker 1 (32:08):
But I'm not so sure if you tell them that
if they act up or act out, they have to
listen to Doug Gottlief show, is that really punishment?

Speaker 4 (32:15):
I'm just asking. I don't rip the colleagues like that. Man,
Come on, why are you doing that?

Speaker 3 (32:22):
That's your colleague, bro At least rip somebody from another network.

Speaker 5 (32:27):
I am.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
All right, I mean, you know what I'm saying. I'm
just saying. I don't know what y'all got going on,
but I'm just.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
You know, I tell you what, who's this backup running
back for Jordan Mason making a little name for himself
sixty seven yards on ten carries?

Speaker 4 (32:47):
The defense isn't stopping the runner?

Speaker 6 (32:49):
And right?

Speaker 4 (32:51):
That take you right?

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Because that Jets defense is supposed to be bally Hood
or is bally Hood right?

Speaker 4 (32:57):
But the Niners are running rough shot over them. It
in Deebo here you go? All right? But anyway, right
for Deebo? What was that?

Speaker 5 (33:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (33:05):
I want to see him score. I know what are
you doing?

Speaker 5 (33:08):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
I don't report no more. You can call yourself a reporter.
Reporter really when the last time you report is up today?
Last time you wrote a story today?

Speaker 4 (33:21):
What I wrote? A story?

Speaker 1 (33:22):
I was leaving know about Bowl, about Bowl Naylor, who's
a catcher for the.

Speaker 4 (33:29):
