Speaker 1 (00:05):
This is straight fire with Jason McIntyre.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
What is up, straight Bam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight
fire for Monday, February tenth, and there was no three
pet Eagles showing up and showing out. Oh boy, was
that a great phenomenal Super Bowl fifty nine last night
(00:32):
Eagles forty Burger Chiefs twenty two. And it wasn't even
that close. I know everybody watched the game, so you
at this point know that the Philadelphia Eagles led the
two time defending Super Bowl champs thirty four to zero
deep into the third quarter. The Eagles just totally dominated
(00:53):
this game. A glorious result to anyone who was sick
of the Chiefs. And they're winning because listen, I've been
beating the drum all season. Guys. This is not a
great Chiefs team. They're not phenomenal. No Rashi Rice, their
early injury. I don't trust these receivers. Mahomes is winning
with smoking mirrors and help from the refs and folks.
It all came true. Philadelphia dominated, and I mean dominated
(01:18):
this game from start to finish. A phenomenal stat from
the Philadelphia defense. Are you ready for this? The first
nine drives the Chiefs had. They had zero touchdowns nine drives.
This is Patrick Mahomes supposed to ly the goat. By
the way, we can squash all that goat talk. Just stop.
He's got murdered in two super Bowls. Now, Okay, Tom
(01:41):
Brady never got murdered in any super Bowl. Joe Montanna
didn't lose any Okay, there's no way Mahomes is the goat.
Yet He's got plenty of time to do more damage
and it'll probably end up passing, but not right now.
So I'm just going to table that nonsense for now.
This was about Jalen Hurts for the second time going
head to head with Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl
and for the second time out playing Patrick Mahomes. Folks,
(02:04):
it's inarguable. Look at the games, look at the numbers.
Mahomes was outplayed twice in the Super Bowl by Jalen Hurts.
That is a fact. I gotta give a ton of
credit to Vic Fangio and this defense. I mean, I
got so many bizarre stats that just make no sense,
and I put this on social media. If you were
in a coma for the last seven years and you
(02:25):
just woke up for the first time today and watch
your first football game, you would think, oh, it's not
even close. Jalen Hurts is better than Mahomes, not even close.
I mean, that's how lopsided this game was. Mahomes was
running for his life. He had no chance. The Philadelphia
Eagles did not blitz once, not once all game, and
they sack Mahomes six times and he was intercepted twice.
(02:46):
The pick six, I think sealed it. And I'm not
gonna lie. So, you know, Eagles are up ten nothing,
and I'm feeling good. I'm like, all right, we got
this Eagles, Like, you know, we know the Chiefs are
gonna come back at freaking Patrick Mahomes. Of course he is.
And they kept pressuring Mahomes, they kept pressuring him, and
all of a sudden, one of the exciting Whites steps up,
Cooper Degene folks. I mean it was that play. I
(03:11):
think I lost my voice. I was kind of sort
of losing my mind. So on that series, right, So
the Eagles go up ten nothing and Mahomes drops back.
He's sacked by Joshuat who had a great game, just
a phenomenal game, and then on second down he drops back,
and this time it was Sweat and Hunt combining for
the sack, and you could just see at this point
Mahomes has rattled. He's totally shook. He doesn't know where
(03:32):
the pressure's coming from, how the pressure's coming because the
ain't blitzing and he's getting battered in the pot and
you're just like, oh my gosh, they're getting home with
four Well, uh, the Chiefs receivers aren't great and oh,
by the way, the secondary is tremendous. Oh dear, this
is a problem. And that's when Mahomes forces something and
Cooper Dejene picks it off. And here's the crazy part.
(03:54):
If you watch that, go to YouTube and call up
that play. When Mahomes throws it, there's no oh Chiefs
receiver anywhere near Cooper dejen He just intercepts it, and
you're like, oh shucks, is he gonna take this to
the house. And at that point I jump up from
the couch. I'm freaking out. My dog had been napping
and he pops up and he's like, what's going on?
And I'm going like, you know, like you remember Kramer
(04:16):
in that Seinfeld episode where he was like betting on
the horses and Cramer's like, come on, like he's a jockey.
I'm standing up, like going crazy, and Dejane takes it
to the house and I just lose my My kids
are like, oh my gosh, and I'm like, it's over.
It's over, It's done, you know, And I start texting
my Eagles fan, my buddy Sam, who gave me an
Eagles jersey. Yes, I will be bringing an Eagles jersey
(04:37):
to the herd. There's a chance I'm gonna wear it
for an hour. I don't know. I will be showing
it on air. He's a big Eagles fan, him and
his family. He's from PA And it was just one
of those moments where it's like, oh my gosh, this
is over. It felt over at seventeen nothing now obviously
it's Mahomes. But then he threw another pick. They were
just bodying that offensive line and at that point on
(04:59):
the second pick, Josh Sweat put the left tackle basically
into Mahomes's abdomen, and Mahomes, you know, kind of it
was picked a great diving play by Zach Bawn. And
you know, listen, you never want to out here too
your own horn when you're right, because obviously you're wrong
a lot. I had a day last week grow an
zero and two in college basketball betting, and it freaking hurt. Listen,
when you're on a heater in college hoops, it feels great.
(05:20):
People are like, you're betting Quinnipiac and you're hitting. Who
are you? And now I'm struggling, and it's like Saturday
was three three and three, which is small loss because
of the vague and you're just kind of pissed. And
everything hit in this almost everything hit in the super Bowl.
First of all, I put this on ig but every
year in August, I go to Vegas and I place
bets and I signed up for the for the the contest,
(05:44):
the NFL picking contest, and I bet one future's college
football on a team and it was Ohio State, which cashed,
and I bet, I mean, I missed, like the Heisman.
I think I had a Carson Beck ticket, which was stupid. Whatever, Yeah,
obviously have several of those. And then I bet several
(06:05):
are who's gonna meet in the super Bowl. It's a
long shot, and who's gonna win? And I had like
Jets over Packers, you know, stupid stuff, And I hit
Eagles over Chiefs plus fifty nine hundred and it comes
through and it was just one of those like, oh
my gosh, first half Eagles cash, Jalen Hurt's VP cash
Eagles teaser and the Eagles win and the over cash.
(06:28):
It was just a monster super Bowl and it felt
so good because again, I don't hate Mahomes, I don't
hate Kelsey. I don't understand the booing of Taylor Swift.
I mean that was a little excessive, but I just
I love this victory for an Eagles team that was
by far better. I don't know how they were dogs
in this game. The public got smashed because you know,
(06:49):
the public loves the Kansas City Chiefs. I don't know
wo the Buffalo Bills have made this game more interesting. Possibly,
I think they have a legit offense, way better run game.
You know, no disrespect to Kelsey, but like Dalton Kincaid's
better than Travis Kelce at this point, I'd take Shakir
over any of the Chiefs wide receivers. Worthy will be
(07:10):
better in the long running. Rice wasn't there. But like,
I don't know what the Ravens have done anything. I mean,
we already saw the Eagles go into Baltimore and to
basically pound the Ravens. Our Ravens could do nothing. Like
if this Eagles defense shut down the Ravens, what's Who's
to say the Buffalo Bills were gonna do anything against them.
This was a masterclass defense or performance. So the largest
(07:33):
halftime deficit in Super Bowl history was twenty five and
that was Washington against Denver. I think that was the
I want to say with the Doug Williams Super Bowl.
And I had loved those Broncos teams. I was an
Lway fan, and they just kept coming up on the
losing end. And the largest super Bowl deficit was twenty
five at half, and this was twenty four nothing, And
(07:54):
I was like, damn, this is this is unbelievable. Now
people will say, hey, well the final score Chiefs made it. No,
they didn't. I mean, don't even look at the stats.
This is one of those games where the stats did
kind of lie like it wasn't lopsided. That being said,
I will give the chief some credit. Let me take
a pause from just totally crapping on them. And they
got they They're worthy of it, folks. They had twenty
(08:16):
three yards on twenty three plays at halftime. Any way
you slice it, that is a body bag performance by
Vic Fonjio And I'll get back to him in a second.
But like this was just a total domination from Philadelphia.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
You could go look at the last Worthy touchdown. I'm
pretty sure he was beating a backup cornerback and I
think it was Blanken Ship was the safety give and
help there, But it was almost like at that point,
you know, Mahomes was just chucking duck at the he was.
He was just not very good in this game. And
I'm not gonna get into bashing Patrick Mahomes. Obviously his
resume speaks for itself. But when you're sacked six times
(09:06):
and the opponent doesn't blitz, I mean, one of my
losses on the props was Isaiah Pacheco over twenty two
and a half yards. I can't believe people were betting
on Kareem Hunt. Essentially, the Chiefs determined we can't run
on these guys, so we're not even gonna try. I'm
pretty sure that they had like one or two carries
in their first like four drives. They just said, we're
(09:28):
just gonna pass. And here's the problem. You can't pass
when you can't protect. And they just could not all
this tuney stuff. Yeah, well he got boat raced by
Josh Wett on the edge. Nolan Smith had a good
game with the pressures. I mean they totally got to Mahomes.
Every single time he dropped back. It was never a
clean pocket. And at halftime, are you ready for this?
(09:50):
First downs thirteen to one Eagles, third downs, the Chiefs
were over six. The money down, you know, when you
expect Mahomes to deliver it. My daughter made a good point,
She's like, why are all the Mahomes throws low? And
my guess is that he could feel the pressure and
he was getting the passes off before he wanted to,
and as a result, he wasn't quite dirting everything, but
(10:12):
everything seemed low. The two misses by Kelcey had two
drops in the first half. Both of those were on
low passes. The Hollywood Brown pass, Uh, no, Hollywood Brown,
I'm sorry. DeAndre Hopkins pass in I believe late second
quarter that he was like, wide open, I was gonna
get get you at least forty yards. It was a
little low. I mean, you gotta catch it, you're a pro.
But he couldn't hold it in. It was one hundred
(10:33):
and seventy nine yards for the Eagles at half, twenty
three for the Chiefs, the lowest yardage output in a
first half for Mahomes in his career, and Travis Kelcey
zero catches in the first half in a postseason game,
first time in his career. Like, it's Travis Kelcey. Now.
There were a couple of reports Sunday or over the
(10:54):
weekend that were interesting. One was Travis Kelcey he might
consider retiring. I don't see that happening now, but obviously.
The other one was Aaron Rodgers. I don't even know
if we're gonna do the Aaron Rodgers thing, like Aaron
rod Jetster won and back. It's like, but who really cares?
Like I'm just so happy that the Jets are moving
on from him, But this is about the Eagles and
utter domination in this game. You know it's weird once
(11:15):
it becomes twenty four to nothing and then it's thirty
four nine. It's like, this isn't amazing. However, I need
to go back. I'm sorry a few minutes. Kansas City
Chiefs defense, I will give them some credit. Saquon Barkley
twenty five carries for fifty seven yards, did not break
a run over ten yards. The leading rusher in this game,
(11:35):
Jalen Hurts seventy two, most for a quarterback ever at
a Super Bowl. The Chiefs did not have a run
longer than eight yards. The longest for the Eagles was
seventeen by Hertz. And yes, that's what I'm getting through.
The Chiefs defense was actually quite good in this game.
I thought the run defense did a hell of a
job bottling up Saquon. And if you look at the
(11:57):
Eagles drive, so it's twenty four to nothing and a half.
The Eagles had two touchdown drives on offense and the
pick six. The two TV drives were fourteen yards okay,
that was after the mahomes picked by Zack Bawn. And
then forty six yards okay, those were their two touchdown drives.
That's like those are short fields, Like that sort of
(12:19):
thing is not sustainable. You don't expect you don't expect
them I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Not forty six. It was
sixty nine yards. So they had a sixty nine yard
touchdown drive and a twenty seven yard field goal drive,
and then the final touchdown was fourteen yards, not forty
six sixty nine. I don't know I had that in
my notes, but essentially, they weren't going the length of
(12:41):
the field, dog walking the Chiefs up and down. In
the second half, they had the bomb, the forty six
yarder on the first play from Hurtz to Devonte Smith,
just a perfect pass, and then they had two field goals.
But the Eagles, it's not like they put together one
of these massive, powerful sustain drives. The Chiefs defense was
(13:03):
not terrible. And I know that's a crazy thing to
say when somebody scores forty points, but all those short
fields really make it easy to score, and you win
with defense, and the Eagles defense was phenomenal. Now here's
an incredible stat I read online, so Vic Fangio. Everybody
had been hyping up Spagnolo because he's so great in
these clutch games, and oh my gosh, he dows up
(13:23):
the blitz on Josh Allen on fourth down, and oh
he's just a genius, endless. It spags. His record speaks
for itself. He's probably a Hall of Famer as a
defensive coach. But this is the postseason that Vic Fangio's
defense has done early. I e. They were ready, the
preparation was there. They were totally focused and locked in.
They knew what was coming. The first seven drives, the
(13:44):
Packers had zero touchdowns. The first ten drives, the Rams
had one touchdown the first seven drives. Washington had one
touchdown the first nine drives, the Chiefs had zero touchdowns.
And this is not against bums and the this is
not against bad quarterbacks. This against Jordan Love went to
(14:06):
I think he won a playoff game, Yeah, won a
playoff game last year, crushed the Cowboys. This against Matt Safford,
who's a Super Bowl winner. This is against Jane Daniels,
who was phenomenal as the rookie of the year. And against
Patrick Mahomes, who a lot of people think, oh, maybe
he's a goat. You know, this is an unbelievable defense
and it's built largely. Go draft SEC players. You want
to win in the NFL. Go draft SEC defensive players,
(14:28):
and they'll get after the quarterback Now, Jalen Carter kind
of had a quiet game, but that's because he was
double teamed. If you watch a lot of the highlights,
they straight up were like, we gotta respect him. We
got a double team Jalen Carter, and they did. And
as a result, Sweat's coming off the edge so low
a manhandled Toney. And then you have Nolan Smith had
a really good game, and then Jordan Davis had a
(14:49):
strong game. Like they just got too many good players.
And I do believe when we start talking draft, we're
not quite there yet. We're gonna start seeing like, Okay,
who from Georgia was a five star and maybe fell
a little bit in the draft for whatever reason, didn't
put up awesome stats, But the talent is there and
(15:11):
who's growing into themselves as a player, Like you can
identify these studs early and it makes you wonder, Guys,
I don't know that. Do you just look at Georgia. Guys,
if you need a defense, like the Jets, my Jets
are to wedge them in again. They kind of sort
of had this profile, right, Robert Salah loaded up on defense.
(15:33):
You had awesome young cornerbacks, right, Sauce Gardner, DJ Reid
and then you had a massive pass rush and a
front forty nine ers had that. I'm not saying the
Jets like we're splitting the atom here. The forty nine
ers had this, and they couldn't pull it off against
Mahomes because he kept beating them deep. They didn't have
the corners to match up. Eagles had the corners. I mean,
I know Mitchell gave up the one touchdown to Hopkins
(15:54):
late in the game, but that was largely garbage time.
You guys know that. And by the way, that was
a great That was probably a Mahomes' second best throw
of the game. His best throw was the first touchdown
to Worthy, which was just a laser while on the run,
really impressive. But the the other one on the left
side of the end zone, like Mitchell was there, his
arm was there. It's just perfect placement and you can't
(16:16):
really do anything about that. But Mitchell was excellent. Dejane
was excellent. I don't think we heard Slay's name called
once because Mahomes didn't really test him. You look at
this and I know, easy to kill the Chiefs. Listen,
they're gonna be fine. Rashie Rice is coming back next year.
He's excellent. They do need help on the offensive line,
There's no doubt about that. They're Cornerback Watson, who was
injured this year but then made a comeback, had been good,
(16:40):
but he got roasted by DeVonta Smith deep and I
remember seeing him at least three times getting cooked. PFF
will have the numbers later this morning, but bottom line
is the Chiefs to have a little work to do. Obviously,
they're still a lead. They're gonna open up next year.
Is one of the best teams, are the best odds
to win the Super Bowl. But I mean, I'm if
you're Philadelphia Eagles fan, what's not to love. I think
(17:03):
we clearly need to elevate Jalen Hurts now into that
upper echelon top six quarterback in the league. I don't
know how you don't have him there. It's funny when
he went to the Super Bowl last time, Jalen Hurts
was considered one of these untouchable top six quarterbacks. Then
he kind of regressed off. It's a coordinator changes, and
then he started to play well again and we're like, oh,
(17:25):
maybe he's got something, But now he's going to lose
his offensive coordinator again. After another great super Bowl and
you start to wonder, like, okay, what like where is
Jalen Hurts in this? I mean, obviously, Burrow, Alan Mahomes
are superstars, Lamar Jackson superstar. So you've got four, but
is there a clear fifth? Is there like an obvious
(17:46):
fifth best quarterback? I know on talent alone it should
be Trevor Lawrence, but he has not lived up to expectation.
So you can't put Trevor Lawrence ahead of Jalen Hurts
right now. I don't see how Hurts isn't in that
tier right behind Mahomes, Alan Jackson and Burrow. Those four
are on a tier to themselves, and I think the
(18:06):
next tier, whoever you guys want in it. I don't
know that Stroud's there after this year he had. I
want to put Herbert there, but what postseasons successes he had?
You know, Jaden Daniels is way too early. I'm sorry.
No Dak Prescott, no Jared Goff. Jordan Love has not
done enough to show me that he's in that group.
Stafford has a great history. I want to make a
(18:28):
case for Brock Purdy. We'll see what happens when he
comes back from injury, but overall, just a outstanding performance
from the Eagles defense from Jalen Hurts. And now, one
of the funniest lines I saw is that the Chief's
offense was so bad in the first half that Serena
(18:51):
Williams did a crip walk during the halftime show and
she had more yards crip walking than the Chiefs did
in the entire first half.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
A ha ha ha.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Obviously funny.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Quick word on the Kendrick Lamar halftime show, I thought
it was okay, it was fine, like he had he's
had a couple bangers. Sure, I don't know, you're not
gonna like this, guys, but I am kind of sort
of team Drake, and I just don't love this idea
(19:35):
that someone like Kendrick Marr, who's ridiculously talented and it's
put together a million great songs and as a producer
he is tremendous, like he's excellent, but to become a
global superstar, Kendrick Lamar needed to be a hater and
try to tear down Drake, and he did a good
job of it. You know, let's listen and you do
these rap beefs and these squabbles. Yeah, you're totally shitting
(19:58):
on someone. And and I do think this pedophile thing
crossed the line when there isn't evidence. If evidence turns up,
then that's another thing. But like, is that where we
are as a society? You could just start calling people
a pedophile and then ha ha ha ha it's funny.
I mean, the song obviously is tremendous. It was a
great song, Song of the Year, Song of it one,
(20:19):
fifty seven million Grammys. I just you know, and I
will confess. Kendrick Lamar goes to my gym. Now I
haven't seen him, but all the guys I play basketball with, like,
oh yeah, Kendrick Omar I saw on this week and
he's the nicest guy. I was like, Okay, wonderful. I
don't know, I just I don't like that he.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Is like.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
The height of his fame has come from tearing down
someone else, you know, like being a hater is now cool.
I don't I'm not one of these.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I know.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
I opened by saying I'm a chief hater. I'm just
saying that in jest because I want someone else to win.
I don't genuinely hate the Chiefs. I don't really hate anyone.
I vehemently disliked the New York Giants because I'm a
Jets fan. I dislike the Patriots because of all the
winning success. I like Tom Brady. So anyways, I don't know.
I just halftime show for me. Yeah, I'll get cooked
(21:09):
for saying it, but like, not gonna lie. Like I
thought that Katy Perry won like fifteen years ago, was
way better. I know, Katie Parry, Jason, what's wrong with you?
I was Katie Perry fan. I think, you know, obviously
attractive and talented and total package. Yeah, I don't know.
I'm yeah, that's not gonna go over well. Anyways, So
(21:30):
New Orleans was tremendous. Obviously down there for a few
shows for the Herd, I largely avoided getting sick. That
neurovirus that's going around. Man. I know somebody that I
work with at FS one, who he's on air talent.
He needed an IV It hit him so hard. I
did wake up one night in like a cold sweat,
and I'm like, just soaked, and I'm like, what the hell.
(21:52):
And I go to the bathroom and I'm like, oh no,
oh no, And I vomited twice and I was like
shit and I wasn't even hammered or anything. And then I,
you know, I took pepto bismol, chugged a bunch of water,
woke up and I'm like, all right, I guess I'm okay.
And fortunately I did not get it. It was maybe
it was just some bad jumbal I eye. I had
(22:13):
some had some beignets, which were excellent. I like New
Orleans as a town. Everything seemed walkable. It is weird
that like you're walking down a big, vibrant street and
then you oh, make it right up there and then
it's like pitch black and looks a little shady. So
I don't know, but that's any city in America, right, Like, honestly,
I I don't ever walk around downtown LA unless I'm
(22:35):
going to a Lakers game and it's in and out.
You know, I'm not like, I'm not down there. But
this downtown New Orleans, I don't know. It didn't it
didn't feel unsafe. Bourbon Street obviously was cool. Unfortunately, didn't
get us a lot to spend a lot of time there.
We did a show Thursday, two on Friday, and then
it's just hangout, go get some interesting stuff, get some
(22:56):
gossip about Matt Stafford allegedly going to the New York Giants.
Mylike neighbors was really pushing that narrative, but overall, yeah,
it was a good time. And now he turned the
page to the NBA and we'll wrap up with this, folks. Tonight,
Luca and Lebron are expected to make their debut against
(23:16):
the Jazz, and I think if you are the NBA,
you're thrilled. Super Bowl and Sunday blowout City. Everybody turns
a page and what do you open with Luca and Lebron.
It doesn't get much better than that. I am super stoked.
I actually have a men'sly game tonight and my boy
is a Lakers season ticket holder, but he's out of town.
(23:40):
I don't think I'll be able to get to the
Luca Lebron debut. Obviously I will get to one in
the future, hopefully near future, but I am super pumped
to see what I believe is a championship caliber team. Honestly, guys,
we'll talk about it plenty later. I know that Mark
Williams trade didn't go through for the Lakers, but if
you just look at the West and let me see
(24:01):
here what I think. The Lakers are fourth or fifth
in the West. The hold on, hold on, hold on,
hold on, hold on. They're fifth in the West. They've
won five in a row. The Lakers, by the way,
who Charles Barklay like a week ago were like, oh,
they stink, They're not good. This is before the Luca deal.
They were already like six games over five hundred. Now
they're twelve games over five hundred positive point differential. Rockets
(24:24):
are sliding. I just look at the landscape in the West,
and I'm like, any series they go into, I've got
Luka Doncic, I'm not that worried. Yes, Jokich will be
a problem. The Lakers will have to play small ball
and hit a bunch of threes. That's not out of
the realm. Are you kidding me? You think Luca and
Lebron are scared of Okce or Memphis? Memphis is good,
(24:44):
Denver's really good. Okay, s he's forty two and nine,
But like, bring it on, Houston. Rockets like they got
some guys, but they has anybody on that team outside
of Van Vliet like done anything in the postseason. Dylan Brooks,
who's he gonna try to thug it up with Luca?
Come on me a break. And then you've got like
the also rants, like the Clippers. I like Timberwolves are
(25:07):
finally starting to make moves, which is nice. The play
in in the West is gonna be insane if the
Warriors are in it and Wemby's in it, KD might
be in it. I don't like NBA is really starting
to get good, and so much has happened by the
way I did see. I watched a little Friday in
(25:27):
New Orleans. The Sixers get just deep pants by the Pistons.
I mean they were losing by like thirty. I was like,
what's And they had PG MAXI and Embiid and then
Embiid played against the Bucks on Sunday and they get smoked,
and Embiid, I guess, told the sideline reporter, Yeah, it
looks like I'm gonna have to get another knee surgery
in the offseason. Like what I mean, you kinda feel
bad for this guy. He went all in for that MVP.
(25:50):
Then he played in the Olympics and he's just not
been the same at all. Stinks and that's why I'm
always gonna be pro rest in the regular season, save
it for the playoffs. Anyways, this was a Super Bowl podcast.
Congrats to the Eagles. All my people in Pennsylvania Fly
Eagles Fly. You guys know obviously, I both my kids
(26:10):
were born in PA. After I had sold the website
back in I forget what year it was, but it
you look it up, two thousand and eleven ish we
could kind of live anywhere, and the wife's parents lived
in Jersey, so we went and we're like, oh, well,
we'll live right across the border in PA. Saved some
money on the taxis, bigger house, bigger yard, blah blah blah.
(26:33):
It was great, and then Fox came calling, so we left.
So I spent like I don't know, I think we
were seven years in Pennsylvania and didn't spend a ton
of time in Philly. Went to some Sixers games, did
not go to an Eagles game, went to some Phillies games.
Made some good relationships out there as fine. Still talk
to the neighbors, all huge Eagles fans, they're geeked, and yeah,
(26:54):
I'm happy for the Eagles. Then Nick Sirianni I can
no longer beat up on him. I think the shots
earlier this season were warranted giving the stuff going on,
but hey, you know what he persevered. Vic Fangio's defense
was ridiculous, Jalen Hurts silivered, Taekwon Barkley was historically great,
and the Eagles are Super Bowl champions. Talk to you
tomorrow
This is straight fire with Jason McIntyre.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
What is up, straight Bam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight
fire for Monday, February tenth, and there was no three
pet Eagles showing up and showing out. Oh boy, was
that a great phenomenal Super Bowl fifty nine last night
(00:32):
Eagles forty Burger Chiefs twenty two. And it wasn't even
that close. I know everybody watched the game, so you
at this point know that the Philadelphia Eagles led the
two time defending Super Bowl champs thirty four to zero
deep into the third quarter. The Eagles just totally dominated
(00:53):
this game. A glorious result to anyone who was sick
of the Chiefs. And they're winning because listen, I've been
beating the drum all season. Guys. This is not a
great Chiefs team. They're not phenomenal. No Rashi Rice, their
early injury. I don't trust these receivers. Mahomes is winning
with smoking mirrors and help from the refs and folks.
It all came true. Philadelphia dominated, and I mean dominated
(01:18):
this game from start to finish. A phenomenal stat from
the Philadelphia defense. Are you ready for this? The first
nine drives the Chiefs had. They had zero touchdowns nine drives.
This is Patrick Mahomes supposed to ly the goat. By
the way, we can squash all that goat talk. Just stop.
He's got murdered in two super Bowls. Now, Okay, Tom
(01:41):
Brady never got murdered in any super Bowl. Joe Montanna
didn't lose any Okay, there's no way Mahomes is the goat.
Yet He's got plenty of time to do more damage
and it'll probably end up passing, but not right now.
So I'm just going to table that nonsense for now.
This was about Jalen Hurts for the second time going
head to head with Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl
and for the second time out playing Patrick Mahomes. Folks,
(02:04):
it's inarguable. Look at the games, look at the numbers.
Mahomes was outplayed twice in the Super Bowl by Jalen Hurts.
That is a fact. I gotta give a ton of
credit to Vic Fangio and this defense. I mean, I
got so many bizarre stats that just make no sense,
and I put this on social media. If you were
in a coma for the last seven years and you
(02:25):
just woke up for the first time today and watch
your first football game, you would think, oh, it's not
even close. Jalen Hurts is better than Mahomes, not even close.
I mean, that's how lopsided this game was. Mahomes was
running for his life. He had no chance. The Philadelphia
Eagles did not blitz once, not once all game, and
they sack Mahomes six times and he was intercepted twice.
(02:46):
The pick six, I think sealed it. And I'm not
gonna lie. So, you know, Eagles are up ten nothing,
and I'm feeling good. I'm like, all right, we got
this Eagles, Like, you know, we know the Chiefs are
gonna come back at freaking Patrick Mahomes. Of course he is.
And they kept pressuring Mahomes, they kept pressuring him, and
all of a sudden, one of the exciting Whites steps up,
Cooper Degene folks. I mean it was that play. I
(03:11):
think I lost my voice. I was kind of sort
of losing my mind. So on that series, right, So
the Eagles go up ten nothing and Mahomes drops back.
He's sacked by Joshuat who had a great game, just
a phenomenal game, and then on second down he drops back,
and this time it was Sweat and Hunt combining for
the sack, and you could just see at this point
Mahomes has rattled. He's totally shook. He doesn't know where
(03:32):
the pressure's coming from, how the pressure's coming because the
ain't blitzing and he's getting battered in the pot and
you're just like, oh my gosh, they're getting home with
four Well, uh, the Chiefs receivers aren't great and oh,
by the way, the secondary is tremendous. Oh dear, this
is a problem. And that's when Mahomes forces something and
Cooper Dejene picks it off. And here's the crazy part.
(03:54):
If you watch that, go to YouTube and call up
that play. When Mahomes throws it, there's no oh Chiefs
receiver anywhere near Cooper dejen He just intercepts it, and
you're like, oh shucks, is he gonna take this to
the house. And at that point I jump up from
the couch. I'm freaking out. My dog had been napping
and he pops up and he's like, what's going on?
And I'm going like, you know, like you remember Kramer
(04:16):
in that Seinfeld episode where he was like betting on
the horses and Cramer's like, come on, like he's a jockey.
I'm standing up, like going crazy, and Dejane takes it
to the house and I just lose my My kids
are like, oh my gosh, and I'm like, it's over.
It's over, It's done, you know, And I start texting
my Eagles fan, my buddy Sam, who gave me an
Eagles jersey. Yes, I will be bringing an Eagles jersey
(04:37):
to the herd. There's a chance I'm gonna wear it
for an hour. I don't know. I will be showing
it on air. He's a big Eagles fan, him and
his family. He's from PA And it was just one
of those moments where it's like, oh my gosh, this
is over. It felt over at seventeen nothing now obviously
it's Mahomes. But then he threw another pick. They were
just bodying that offensive line and at that point on
(04:59):
the second pick, Josh Sweat put the left tackle basically
into Mahomes's abdomen, and Mahomes, you know, kind of it
was picked a great diving play by Zach Bawn. And
you know, listen, you never want to out here too
your own horn when you're right, because obviously you're wrong
a lot. I had a day last week grow an
zero and two in college basketball betting, and it freaking hurt. Listen,
when you're on a heater in college hoops, it feels great.
(05:20):
People are like, you're betting Quinnipiac and you're hitting. Who
are you? And now I'm struggling, and it's like Saturday
was three three and three, which is small loss because
of the vague and you're just kind of pissed. And
everything hit in this almost everything hit in the super Bowl.
First of all, I put this on ig but every
year in August, I go to Vegas and I place
bets and I signed up for the for the the contest,
(05:44):
the NFL picking contest, and I bet one future's college
football on a team and it was Ohio State, which cashed,
and I bet, I mean, I missed, like the Heisman.
I think I had a Carson Beck ticket, which was stupid. Whatever, Yeah,
obviously have several of those. And then I bet several
(06:05):
are who's gonna meet in the super Bowl. It's a
long shot, and who's gonna win? And I had like
Jets over Packers, you know, stupid stuff, And I hit
Eagles over Chiefs plus fifty nine hundred and it comes
through and it was just one of those like, oh
my gosh, first half Eagles cash, Jalen Hurt's VP cash
Eagles teaser and the Eagles win and the over cash.
(06:28):
It was just a monster super Bowl and it felt
so good because again, I don't hate Mahomes, I don't
hate Kelsey. I don't understand the booing of Taylor Swift.
I mean that was a little excessive, but I just
I love this victory for an Eagles team that was
by far better. I don't know how they were dogs
in this game. The public got smashed because you know,
(06:49):
the public loves the Kansas City Chiefs. I don't know
wo the Buffalo Bills have made this game more interesting. Possibly,
I think they have a legit offense, way better run game.
You know, no disrespect to Kelsey, but like Dalton Kincaid's
better than Travis Kelce at this point, I'd take Shakir
over any of the Chiefs wide receivers. Worthy will be
(07:10):
better in the long running. Rice wasn't there. But like,
I don't know what the Ravens have done anything. I mean,
we already saw the Eagles go into Baltimore and to
basically pound the Ravens. Our Ravens could do nothing. Like
if this Eagles defense shut down the Ravens, what's Who's
to say the Buffalo Bills were gonna do anything against them.
This was a masterclass defense or performance. So the largest
(07:33):
halftime deficit in Super Bowl history was twenty five and
that was Washington against Denver. I think that was the
I want to say with the Doug Williams Super Bowl.
And I had loved those Broncos teams. I was an
Lway fan, and they just kept coming up on the
losing end. And the largest super Bowl deficit was twenty
five at half, and this was twenty four nothing, And
(07:54):
I was like, damn, this is this is unbelievable. Now
people will say, hey, well the final score Chiefs made it. No,
they didn't. I mean, don't even look at the stats.
This is one of those games where the stats did
kind of lie like it wasn't lopsided. That being said,
I will give the chief some credit. Let me take
a pause from just totally crapping on them. And they
got they They're worthy of it, folks. They had twenty
(08:16):
three yards on twenty three plays at halftime. Any way
you slice it, that is a body bag performance by
Vic Fonjio And I'll get back to him in a second.
But like this was just a total domination from Philadelphia.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
You could go look at the last Worthy touchdown. I'm
pretty sure he was beating a backup cornerback and I
think it was Blanken Ship was the safety give and
help there, But it was almost like at that point,
you know, Mahomes was just chucking duck at the he was.
He was just not very good in this game. And
I'm not gonna get into bashing Patrick Mahomes. Obviously his
resume speaks for itself. But when you're sacked six times
(09:06):
and the opponent doesn't blitz, I mean, one of my
losses on the props was Isaiah Pacheco over twenty two
and a half yards. I can't believe people were betting
on Kareem Hunt. Essentially, the Chiefs determined we can't run
on these guys, so we're not even gonna try. I'm
pretty sure that they had like one or two carries
in their first like four drives. They just said, we're
(09:28):
just gonna pass. And here's the problem. You can't pass
when you can't protect. And they just could not all
this tuney stuff. Yeah, well he got boat raced by
Josh Wett on the edge. Nolan Smith had a good
game with the pressures. I mean they totally got to Mahomes.
Every single time he dropped back. It was never a
clean pocket. And at halftime, are you ready for this?
(09:50):
First downs thirteen to one Eagles, third downs, the Chiefs
were over six. The money down, you know, when you
expect Mahomes to deliver it. My daughter made a good point,
She's like, why are all the Mahomes throws low? And
my guess is that he could feel the pressure and
he was getting the passes off before he wanted to,
and as a result, he wasn't quite dirting everything, but
(10:12):
everything seemed low. The two misses by Kelcey had two
drops in the first half. Both of those were on
low passes. The Hollywood Brown pass, Uh, no, Hollywood Brown,
I'm sorry. DeAndre Hopkins pass in I believe late second
quarter that he was like, wide open, I was gonna
get get you at least forty yards. It was a
little low. I mean, you gotta catch it, you're a pro.
But he couldn't hold it in. It was one hundred
(10:33):
and seventy nine yards for the Eagles at half, twenty
three for the Chiefs, the lowest yardage output in a
first half for Mahomes in his career, and Travis Kelcey
zero catches in the first half in a postseason game,
first time in his career. Like, it's Travis Kelcey. Now.
There were a couple of reports Sunday or over the
(10:54):
weekend that were interesting. One was Travis Kelcey he might
consider retiring. I don't see that happening now, but obviously.
The other one was Aaron Rodgers. I don't even know
if we're gonna do the Aaron Rodgers thing, like Aaron
rod Jetster won and back. It's like, but who really cares?
Like I'm just so happy that the Jets are moving
on from him, But this is about the Eagles and
utter domination in this game. You know it's weird once
(11:15):
it becomes twenty four to nothing and then it's thirty
four nine. It's like, this isn't amazing. However, I need
to go back. I'm sorry a few minutes. Kansas City
Chiefs defense, I will give them some credit. Saquon Barkley
twenty five carries for fifty seven yards, did not break
a run over ten yards. The leading rusher in this game,
(11:35):
Jalen Hurts seventy two, most for a quarterback ever at
a Super Bowl. The Chiefs did not have a run
longer than eight yards. The longest for the Eagles was
seventeen by Hertz. And yes, that's what I'm getting through.
The Chiefs defense was actually quite good in this game.
I thought the run defense did a hell of a
job bottling up Saquon. And if you look at the
(11:57):
Eagles drive, so it's twenty four to nothing and a half.
The Eagles had two touchdown drives on offense and the
pick six. The two TV drives were fourteen yards okay,
that was after the mahomes picked by Zack Bawn. And
then forty six yards okay, those were their two touchdown drives.
That's like those are short fields, Like that sort of
(12:19):
thing is not sustainable. You don't expect you don't expect
them I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Not forty six. It was
sixty nine yards. So they had a sixty nine yard
touchdown drive and a twenty seven yard field goal drive,
and then the final touchdown was fourteen yards, not forty
six sixty nine. I don't know I had that in
my notes, but essentially, they weren't going the length of
(12:41):
the field, dog walking the Chiefs up and down. In
the second half, they had the bomb, the forty six
yarder on the first play from Hurtz to Devonte Smith,
just a perfect pass, and then they had two field goals.
But the Eagles, it's not like they put together one
of these massive, powerful sustain drives. The Chiefs defense was
(13:03):
not terrible. And I know that's a crazy thing to
say when somebody scores forty points, but all those short
fields really make it easy to score, and you win
with defense, and the Eagles defense was phenomenal. Now here's
an incredible stat I read online, so Vic Fangio. Everybody
had been hyping up Spagnolo because he's so great in
these clutch games, and oh my gosh, he dows up
(13:23):
the blitz on Josh Allen on fourth down, and oh
he's just a genius, endless. It spags. His record speaks
for itself. He's probably a Hall of Famer as a
defensive coach. But this is the postseason that Vic Fangio's
defense has done early. I e. They were ready, the
preparation was there. They were totally focused and locked in.
They knew what was coming. The first seven drives, the
(13:44):
Packers had zero touchdowns. The first ten drives, the Rams
had one touchdown the first seven drives. Washington had one
touchdown the first nine drives, the Chiefs had zero touchdowns.
And this is not against bums and the this is
not against bad quarterbacks. This against Jordan Love went to
(14:06):
I think he won a playoff game, Yeah, won a
playoff game last year, crushed the Cowboys. This against Matt Safford,
who's a Super Bowl winner. This is against Jane Daniels,
who was phenomenal as the rookie of the year. And against
Patrick Mahomes, who a lot of people think, oh, maybe
he's a goat. You know, this is an unbelievable defense
and it's built largely. Go draft SEC players. You want
to win in the NFL. Go draft SEC defensive players,
(14:28):
and they'll get after the quarterback Now, Jalen Carter kind
of had a quiet game, but that's because he was
double teamed. If you watch a lot of the highlights,
they straight up were like, we gotta respect him. We
got a double team Jalen Carter, and they did. And
as a result, Sweat's coming off the edge so low
a manhandled Toney. And then you have Nolan Smith had
a really good game, and then Jordan Davis had a
(14:49):
strong game. Like they just got too many good players.
And I do believe when we start talking draft, we're
not quite there yet. We're gonna start seeing like, Okay,
who from Georgia was a five star and maybe fell
a little bit in the draft for whatever reason, didn't
put up awesome stats, But the talent is there and
(15:11):
who's growing into themselves as a player, Like you can
identify these studs early and it makes you wonder, Guys,
I don't know that. Do you just look at Georgia. Guys,
if you need a defense, like the Jets, my Jets
are to wedge them in again. They kind of sort
of had this profile, right, Robert Salah loaded up on defense.
(15:33):
You had awesome young cornerbacks, right, Sauce Gardner, DJ Reid
and then you had a massive pass rush and a
front forty nine ers had that. I'm not saying the
Jets like we're splitting the atom here. The forty nine
ers had this, and they couldn't pull it off against
Mahomes because he kept beating them deep. They didn't have
the corners to match up. Eagles had the corners. I mean,
I know Mitchell gave up the one touchdown to Hopkins
(15:54):
late in the game, but that was largely garbage time.
You guys know that. And by the way, that was
a great That was probably a Mahomes' second best throw
of the game. His best throw was the first touchdown
to Worthy, which was just a laser while on the run,
really impressive. But the the other one on the left
side of the end zone, like Mitchell was there, his
arm was there. It's just perfect placement and you can't
(16:16):
really do anything about that. But Mitchell was excellent. Dejane
was excellent. I don't think we heard Slay's name called
once because Mahomes didn't really test him. You look at
this and I know, easy to kill the Chiefs. Listen,
they're gonna be fine. Rashie Rice is coming back next year.
He's excellent. They do need help on the offensive line,
There's no doubt about that. They're Cornerback Watson, who was
injured this year but then made a comeback, had been good,
(16:40):
but he got roasted by DeVonta Smith deep and I
remember seeing him at least three times getting cooked. PFF
will have the numbers later this morning, but bottom line
is the Chiefs to have a little work to do. Obviously,
they're still a lead. They're gonna open up next year.
Is one of the best teams, are the best odds
to win the Super Bowl. But I mean, I'm if
you're Philadelphia Eagles fan, what's not to love. I think
(17:03):
we clearly need to elevate Jalen Hurts now into that
upper echelon top six quarterback in the league. I don't
know how you don't have him there. It's funny when
he went to the Super Bowl last time, Jalen Hurts
was considered one of these untouchable top six quarterbacks. Then
he kind of regressed off. It's a coordinator changes, and
then he started to play well again and we're like, oh,
(17:25):
maybe he's got something, But now he's going to lose
his offensive coordinator again. After another great super Bowl and
you start to wonder, like, okay, what like where is
Jalen Hurts in this? I mean, obviously, Burrow, Alan Mahomes
are superstars, Lamar Jackson superstar. So you've got four, but
is there a clear fifth? Is there like an obvious
(17:46):
fifth best quarterback? I know on talent alone it should
be Trevor Lawrence, but he has not lived up to expectation.
So you can't put Trevor Lawrence ahead of Jalen Hurts
right now. I don't see how Hurts isn't in that
tier right behind Mahomes, Alan Jackson and Burrow. Those four
are on a tier to themselves, and I think the
(18:06):
next tier, whoever you guys want in it. I don't
know that Stroud's there after this year he had. I
want to put Herbert there, but what postseasons successes he had?
You know, Jaden Daniels is way too early. I'm sorry.
No Dak Prescott, no Jared Goff. Jordan Love has not
done enough to show me that he's in that group.
Stafford has a great history. I want to make a
(18:28):
case for Brock Purdy. We'll see what happens when he
comes back from injury, but overall, just a outstanding performance
from the Eagles defense from Jalen Hurts. And now, one
of the funniest lines I saw is that the Chief's
offense was so bad in the first half that Serena
(18:51):
Williams did a crip walk during the halftime show and
she had more yards crip walking than the Chiefs did
in the entire first half.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
A ha ha ha.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Obviously funny.

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Quick word on the Kendrick Lamar halftime show, I thought
it was okay, it was fine, like he had he's
had a couple bangers. Sure, I don't know, you're not
gonna like this, guys, but I am kind of sort
of team Drake, and I just don't love this idea
(19:35):
that someone like Kendrick Marr, who's ridiculously talented and it's
put together a million great songs and as a producer
he is tremendous, like he's excellent, but to become a
global superstar, Kendrick Lamar needed to be a hater and
try to tear down Drake, and he did a good
job of it. You know, let's listen and you do
these rap beefs and these squabbles. Yeah, you're totally shitting
(19:58):
on someone. And and I do think this pedophile thing
crossed the line when there isn't evidence. If evidence turns up,
then that's another thing. But like, is that where we
are as a society? You could just start calling people
a pedophile and then ha ha ha ha it's funny.
I mean, the song obviously is tremendous. It was a
great song, Song of the Year, Song of it one,
(20:19):
fifty seven million Grammys. I just you know, and I
will confess. Kendrick Lamar goes to my gym. Now I
haven't seen him, but all the guys I play basketball with, like,
oh yeah, Kendrick Omar I saw on this week and
he's the nicest guy. I was like, Okay, wonderful. I
don't know, I just I don't like that he.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Is like.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
The height of his fame has come from tearing down
someone else, you know, like being a hater is now cool.
I don't I'm not one of these.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I know.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
I opened by saying I'm a chief hater. I'm just
saying that in jest because I want someone else to win.
I don't genuinely hate the Chiefs. I don't really hate anyone.
I vehemently disliked the New York Giants because I'm a
Jets fan. I dislike the Patriots because of all the
winning success. I like Tom Brady. So anyways, I don't know.
I just halftime show for me. Yeah, I'll get cooked
(21:09):
for saying it, but like, not gonna lie. Like I
thought that Katy Perry won like fifteen years ago, was
way better. I know, Katie Parry, Jason, what's wrong with you?
I was Katie Perry fan. I think, you know, obviously
attractive and talented and total package. Yeah, I don't know.
I'm yeah, that's not gonna go over well. Anyways, So
(21:30):
New Orleans was tremendous. Obviously down there for a few
shows for the Herd, I largely avoided getting sick. That
neurovirus that's going around. Man. I know somebody that I
work with at FS one, who he's on air talent.
He needed an IV It hit him so hard. I
did wake up one night in like a cold sweat,
and I'm like, just soaked, and I'm like, what the hell.
(21:52):
And I go to the bathroom and I'm like, oh no,
oh no, And I vomited twice and I was like
shit and I wasn't even hammered or anything. And then I,
you know, I took pepto bismol, chugged a bunch of water,
woke up and I'm like, all right, I guess I'm okay.
And fortunately I did not get it. It was maybe
it was just some bad jumbal I eye. I had
(22:13):
some had some beignets, which were excellent. I like New
Orleans as a town. Everything seemed walkable. It is weird
that like you're walking down a big, vibrant street and
then you oh, make it right up there and then
it's like pitch black and looks a little shady. So
I don't know, but that's any city in America, right, Like, honestly,
I I don't ever walk around downtown LA unless I'm
(22:35):
going to a Lakers game and it's in and out.
You know, I'm not like, I'm not down there. But
this downtown New Orleans, I don't know. It didn't it
didn't feel unsafe. Bourbon Street obviously was cool. Unfortunately, didn't
get us a lot to spend a lot of time there.
We did a show Thursday, two on Friday, and then
it's just hangout, go get some interesting stuff, get some
(22:56):
gossip about Matt Stafford allegedly going to the New York Giants.
Mylike neighbors was really pushing that narrative, but overall, yeah,
it was a good time. And now he turned the
page to the NBA and we'll wrap up with this, folks. Tonight,
Luca and Lebron are expected to make their debut against
(23:16):
the Jazz, and I think if you are the NBA,
you're thrilled. Super Bowl and Sunday blowout City. Everybody turns
a page and what do you open with Luca and Lebron.
It doesn't get much better than that. I am super stoked.
I actually have a men'sly game tonight and my boy
is a Lakers season ticket holder, but he's out of town.
(23:40):
I don't think I'll be able to get to the
Luca Lebron debut. Obviously I will get to one in
the future, hopefully near future, but I am super pumped
to see what I believe is a championship caliber team. Honestly, guys,
we'll talk about it plenty later. I know that Mark
Williams trade didn't go through for the Lakers, but if
you just look at the West and let me see
(24:01):
here what I think. The Lakers are fourth or fifth
in the West. The hold on, hold on, hold on,
hold on, hold on. They're fifth in the West. They've
won five in a row. The Lakers, by the way,
who Charles Barklay like a week ago were like, oh,
they stink, They're not good. This is before the Luca deal.
They were already like six games over five hundred. Now
they're twelve games over five hundred positive point differential. Rockets
(24:24):
are sliding. I just look at the landscape in the West,
and I'm like, any series they go into, I've got
Luka Doncic, I'm not that worried. Yes, Jokich will be
a problem. The Lakers will have to play small ball
and hit a bunch of threes. That's not out of
the realm. Are you kidding me? You think Luca and
Lebron are scared of Okce or Memphis? Memphis is good,
(24:44):
Denver's really good. Okay, s he's forty two and nine,
But like, bring it on, Houston. Rockets like they got
some guys, but they has anybody on that team outside
of Van Vliet like done anything in the postseason. Dylan Brooks,
who's he gonna try to thug it up with Luca?
Come on me a break. And then you've got like
the also rants, like the Clippers. I like Timberwolves are
(25:07):
finally starting to make moves, which is nice. The play
in in the West is gonna be insane if the
Warriors are in it and Wemby's in it, KD might
be in it. I don't like NBA is really starting
to get good, and so much has happened by the
way I did see. I watched a little Friday in
(25:27):
New Orleans. The Sixers get just deep pants by the Pistons.
I mean they were losing by like thirty. I was like,
what's And they had PG MAXI and Embiid and then
Embiid played against the Bucks on Sunday and they get smoked,
and Embiid, I guess, told the sideline reporter, Yeah, it
looks like I'm gonna have to get another knee surgery
in the offseason. Like what I mean, you kinda feel
bad for this guy. He went all in for that MVP.
(25:50):
Then he played in the Olympics and he's just not
been the same at all. Stinks and that's why I'm
always gonna be pro rest in the regular season, save
it for the playoffs. Anyways, this was a Super Bowl podcast.
Congrats to the Eagles. All my people in Pennsylvania Fly
Eagles Fly. You guys know obviously, I both my kids
(26:10):
were born in PA. After I had sold the website
back in I forget what year it was, but it
you look it up, two thousand and eleven ish we
could kind of live anywhere, and the wife's parents lived
in Jersey, so we went and we're like, oh, well,
we'll live right across the border in PA. Saved some
money on the taxis, bigger house, bigger yard, blah blah blah.
(26:33):
It was great, and then Fox came calling, so we left.
So I spent like I don't know, I think we
were seven years in Pennsylvania and didn't spend a ton
of time in Philly. Went to some Sixers games, did
not go to an Eagles game, went to some Phillies games.
Made some good relationships out there as fine. Still talk
to the neighbors, all huge Eagles fans, they're geeked, and yeah,
(26:54):
I'm happy for the Eagles. Then Nick Sirianni I can
no longer beat up on him. I think the shots
earlier this season were warranted giving the stuff going on,
but hey, you know what he persevered. Vic Fangio's defense
was ridiculous, Jalen Hurts silivered, Taekwon Barkley was historically great,
and the Eagles are Super Bowl champions. Talk to you
tomorrow
