(01:58):
PGA Tour Chachampionships underway and Scotti Scheffler a hum seven
under opening round. We'll talk about that as well. NFL
preseason this is week three.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
This is it.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
This is when cutts start today, all weekend and Monday,
and Jerry Jones and Michaeh. Parsons agent's agent are kind
of jabbing each other, going back and forth. Jerry was
on Michael Irvin's YouTube show and had a couple of
things to say. So he talks about what he's willing
(02:32):
to pay Micah and on how Micah's agent has messed
up the negotiations. Let's start with what Jerry is willing
to pay MICHAEH.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Parsons.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
I have agreed to give more money than has ever
been given in terms of guaranteed money than anyone ever
has as far as a defensive player. Mike has got
three years with Cowboys LIT. At some point somebody has
to have the say over. The other job is managing
the check. Mike has got to do the play. What
(03:04):
is the least incremental part of the whole equation the
attorney or the agent he works for Micah.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Okay, he tried to backdoor the negotiations by excluding Michael
Parson's agent and going to Micah. You're not allowed to
do that, and he admitted doing that. Whereas years ago
he would go to the agents and then he would negotiate.
Now he wants to take the agents out. He wants
to talk to the player. Here is Jerry Jones talking
(03:36):
about Michael Parsons agent screwing things up.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
We wanted to send the details to the agent. The
agent soldiers to Bepper asked. Mike and I talked, and
then we were going to send it over to the
agent and we had our agreements on term amun guarantees, everything.
We were going to send it over to the agent,
and the agent said, don't bother because we've got all
(04:02):
that to negotiate. Well, we've got this theory resolved in
my mind for the dollars cowboys, and we've got it done.
And if the agent wants to finish up the detail,
which is should and we're ready to go. But as
far as the amount of money, the years, the guarantees,
all of that, we negotiate.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Okay, can we go back to the beginning of that,
because did we bleep out.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
The wrong thing?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Did weep? We bleep out stick instead of ass? Okay, Marvin,
can you just play the beginning.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
We wanted to send the details to the agent. The
agent solders, ass.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
It makes it sound like he said something really bad
leading up to bleep up your ants.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
That's hilarious, Marvin. Did you do the bleeping here?
Speaker 4 (04:57):
No?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
I had to touch this, okay, shifted play it one
more time.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
We wanted to send the details to the agent. The
agent sodas as.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Okay, Paulie, you're the executive producer, right.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
I think that the back room was trying to downplay
the act of the phrase by getting rid of the
word stick and the word ass really is not a
big deal on national radio. I think that's what they
were doing. Stick isn't either, right, but they by getting
rid of the word stick, you kind of dumbed down
(05:36):
the action that's being described by.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Well now, I really you know, I was like, wait
a minute, what did he say? And then I soul
it was written out and it said, you know, stick
it up, you know my ass?
Speaker 3 (05:47):
And I'm thinking, we just bleeped out stick. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
See, it's like pixelating someone's belly button and not their genitals.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
That's essentially what we just did.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
Which we may have done.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
This is why we don't win a sports him. You know,
this is why Paulie's going and checking with the back
room guys. Uh oh, there's going to be bleep to pay.
Paulie's going to tell them to bleep it up their ass.
What's the poll question today?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
I wonder if we actually did that in house or not.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Uh I hope I did it come likestgation.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
The motto of our news team.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Is if good journalism is wrong, well then we don't
want to be right.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Let's go to the newsroom.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
We're calling it as Kate dan uh. The IT team
just went back and the entire BRG conglomerate, all of
them said, we had nothing to do with that. We
didn't edit it, tweet do anything to it. Marvin said
he did not edit it. So it may have come
to us in that fashion.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Marvin, that's exactly how it came to us. Okay, on
my son's oh you don't yeah your bleep, I.
Speaker 7 (07:11):
Swear I bleep.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Where did it come from that piece of sound? It
came from bleep.
Speaker 8 (07:18):
No, it came from all like iHeart sends us okay
sound every single day.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
So that's where I got it from. And so and
it was funnier this way, was it not?
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Fairpoint?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Well, I'm listening to it and I'm not even hearing
the rest of what Jerry's saying. I'm only hearing about
Wait a minute, what did we just bleep out? If
we didn't bleep out a us Okay, we're just getting
started here.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Whole question today.
Speaker 9 (07:45):
I just want to roll with this. I listened to them.
They told us to bleep it up our Here's one
from Paul who had the wonkiest career. What might I
also say made perhaps the choppiest career. Oh that's Polway's
great description.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Love it. Steve Young, Kurt Warner, Nick Foles.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Other Okay, this is based on.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
This an interesting list, Yeah, really is.
Speaker 5 (08:10):
It's based on Steve Young's career. Steve Young was a
first ballot Hall of Fame quarterback without making a Pro
Bowl or All Pro before the age of thirty. Including
the age of thirty. He did all his work from
thirty one to thirty seven. That is as unique as
it gets in sports. We're actually looking for a comp
Nick Foles. Nick Foles made a Pro Bowl at age
(08:34):
twenty four. He had twenty seven touchdowns and two picks
for Philly with the Chip Kelly era. Then he bounced
around the league five different teams, and then he was
a Super Bowl MVP against Tom Brady. That's his career,
two things. And then Kurt Warner it takes a while
getting the league, starts at age twenty seven, becomes an
(08:55):
MVP and wins to Super Bowl. The Rams bounces around
injury to the hand and then he takes the Arizona
Cardinals close to a Super Bowl victory. Most Wonkee.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Well, we saw Kurt Warner do something incredible with the
Greatest Show on Turf, and then he was a backup
to Eli and then to take the Cardinals to the
super Bowl. I mean, that's a big turnaround for somebody
that we thought his career was over. I don't know
if we expected anything out of Nick Foles. He had
the one year with Chip Kelly and that was a
(09:27):
great year, but then do you go from that to
being the Super Bowl MVP. Steve Young had a lot
of talent. He was in the USFL. I think one
of the great athletes we've had at that position. But
thirty years of age, thirty one years of age to
become a Pro Bowl quarterback, that's pretty remarkable. I don't
(09:48):
know has anybody ever gone into the Hall of Fame
not making a Pro Bowl or an All Pro before
they were thirty one years of age, And unless it's
a kicker, I don't know if there's anybody else that
would have followed that formula.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah, Paul, we're looking it up.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
Because most guys do most of their damage from age
twenty five to thirty Pro Bowls All Pros and their resume.
The one that I thought might be in there would
be Roger Staubach at the Cowboys, because I don't think
he started playing to age twenty seven and he didn't
really get the starting job. I just looked it up.
Roger Stauback's first Pro Bowl, All Pro. He was twenty
(10:27):
nine years old, his first year as the full time
starter with the Cowboys, and then from age thirty three
to thirty seven he was a Pro Bowl every year.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
He's close.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, that's a good comp because Roger was splitting time
with Craig Morton wrecked and you wonder Roger Stallback and
Steve Young were similar. They were really athletic quarterbacks, one
right handed, one left handed. Roger had the military commitment
at Navy and Steve bounced around, played in the USFL.
(11:01):
He was with Tampa. But the fact that the Niners
trade for him and he sits for four years, four
years behind Joe Montana. You wonder what he would have
been like if he was playing at twenty four twenty five.
And you wonder with Roger Staubach, if he started playing,
what if Steve Young does not get traded to the Niners.
(11:24):
What if Joe Montana doesn't get traded to the Kansas
City Chiefs.
Speaker 7 (11:29):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You know, the sports is filled with these kind of
stories like if that doesn't happen, then that doesn't happen.
But we'll talk to Steve Young a little bit later
on and Mark Schlereth will join us coming up the
NFL on Fox. Annaly's former Denver Bronco offensive lineman. What
other pole question are we entertaining today, Seaton?
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Yeah, we're running with that one hour one. We're also
going to put up a second pole question. Is a
better word to describe their career as wonky or choppy?
Speaker 3 (11:58):
That that is part due? Okay, Paulie loves him some chopping.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
Yeah, it might be choppy because Nick Foles early greatness,
late greatness, Kurt Warner early greatness, late greatness.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
They're all interesting people in their own right. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Would you rather have Steve Young's career or John Fogerty, Oh,
that old question. I'm gonna have to take John Fogerty.
He's eighty and he's still playing, and he's in a
few he's in a few Hall of Fames, he's in
the Songwriting Hall of Fame, He's in the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame, and now his baseball bat shape,
(12:37):
guitar and the song center field going into the Baseball
Hall of Fame, Yes, Martin.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
But I'm sure Steve Young's in a few hall of
Fames himself.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Okay, Greenwich, Okay, mister forty nine er defender here, Okay,
I'm not.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Saying it because he's my favorite quarterback ever. I just yes,
Paulie Dan.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
You're gonna love this. We're gonna do the quick Steve
Young game if you have time for it.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Sure.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Other than Steve Young, there's only one other quarterback who
didn't make a Pro Bowl till after the age thirty
and got into the Hall of Fame, modern era, modern era, eighties,
nineties guy. And remember, there's a reason he wasn't in
the NFL early in his career. Wasn't even in the NFL.
There's the hint, So.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Jim Kelly, Nope, but that's a good guess. Warren Moon.
Speaker 5 (13:29):
Warn Moon is correct.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Warren Moon.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
He played seven years in Canada. He joined Houston but
didn't make the Houston Oilers. He didn't make a Pro
Bowl till age thirty two and then made nine straight.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
All right, let's take a break.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
We settle on our poll question and I believe phone
lines your jam, so we'll get to phone calls as
well to meet Friday. Morale is extremely high. Well, let
me check in with Todd.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
Morale is extremely high. Good. You feel good? I feel
great great? All right, well then I do too, because
I live vicariously through you.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
That's very kind.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Thank you.

Dallas Cowboy documentary on Netflix.
Speaker 3 (14:13):

Vegas joins this shad what's on your mind today?
Speaker 12 (15:23):
Jarnie Fellas, how are you great?
Speaker 4 (15:26):
Good?
Speaker 8 (15:26):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (15:27):
I just wanted to confirm and and and vouch for
your back row guys. That clip from Jerry Jones I
heard yesterday here in Las Vegas yesterday at around three
thirty in the afternoon, and they believed out the same phrase.
And I was wondering what was so offensive with stick?
But I can vouce for your boys. You're stilling the
money for an SB.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Thank you an s B. I take S too. I
got a better chance of winning an Academy award. Eric
and La Hi, Eric, TP, what's up?
Speaker 13 (15:58):
Yeah, I'm doubling down on the i TM investigation report
here on our stick bleeping Okay, so I had a
lot of windshield time yesterday. You guys are on AM
five seventy and SoCal, A bunch of the other national
broadcast folks were laughing about the same thing. Why did
we blue out stick? I'm listening to Jason Smith and
(16:20):
harmon yesterday evening. They're laughing about it. In real time.
They bring on the kid I'm going to forget his name,
but the kid who was doing editing for Cabino and
Rich figured out that the act itself is.
Speaker 14 (16:36):
What is going to be questionable for the commons legal folks.
So they went ahead and went with stick instead of acts.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
And there we have it.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
All right, thank you, thank you. We have reporters part
of our IT team all over the world. Here, Marvin,
play that you know once again for context. Before we
get to Mark Schlare, here's Jerry Jones.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
We wanted to send the details to the agent. The
agent soldiers as.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
The best.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
We make the smooth segue to Mark schlarev NFL on
Fox Analyst, three times Super Bowl champ working with Renegade
Fantasy follow that stink.
Speaker 15 (17:21):
Yeah, well, you know what, I can't follow that, but
stink is appropriate for uh for that comment. So we're
good by the way your sp comment, happy grabbing up.
I can't wait to see you get an Academy award.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
It's gonna be awesome. dB.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Yeah, when does the Michael Parsons situation get your full attention?
Speaker 9 (17:40):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (17:41):
When he starts missing games?
Speaker 15 (17:43):
Okay, I mean this is this is so standard for
Jerry Jones, the standard operating procedure when it comes to MICHAELH. Parsons,
because you wait till last second to get your quarterback done,
Dak Prescott, you wait till last second to get to
get your wide receiver done and.
Speaker 7 (18:02):
So ceedee lamb.
Speaker 15 (18:03):
So the bottom line is this is the way they
operate as a business. But this is also the reason
that things have gone awry. Why you haven't won a
divisional playoff round game since nineteen ninety five, Because if
you do it to these guys, it creates a locker
room full in my opinion, of independent contractors, you're like,
(18:24):
if you're gonna take your stars and you're gonna rake
them over the cools and you're gonna essentially, you know,
give out some fake money contraction report that Dak Prescott
is the highest gonna be the highest paid guy in
the history of football, and you know some of the
details in there are faulty, and he turns it down.
Will you turn your fan base against your players? Your
(18:45):
players look.
Speaker 7 (18:46):
At the management and say, what are we doing here?
Speaker 15 (18:48):
You knew that Michael Parsons Dan was a You knew
he was a bona fide superstar from his rookie year.
And the fact that you wait and you wait and
you wait, it keeps you out of free agency. It
keeps you out of doing the things that you need
to do as a football franchise to have a legitimate chance,
in my opinion, to win a championship. And so it's
(19:08):
just the Dallas Cowboy way. I said it on my podcast,
The Stink of Truth podcast. They are the Jacksonville Jaguars
with better marketing. That's what the Dallas Cowboys are.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
If Jerryott actually relinquished the GM job, would they have
been better? Would they have competed for champions would they
have won championships in the last thirty years?
Speaker 15 (19:30):
Yeah, because I think they have. I think they've done
a great job drafting. I think they are a really good,
you know, really good football team. But there's more to
it than that, Like when when your owner is the
guy that's circumventing the authority of the coach or the
people that are in place. Eventually that comes back to
(19:52):
bitsha and ultimately for them, it's bitting them in the
playoffs and those things. You know, it's hard to quantify
and it's hard to put number on it, but I'm
just telling you, when you have a backstaircase to the
owner's office and if you don't like something going on
within the organization as a player, you can go up
there and talk to him about it, that is a
That is not the way the structure is supposed to
(20:13):
happen in an NFL franchise, and eventually it bites you.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
I always wonder about these holdout or hold ins and
how that affects the locker room because to me, if
I'm a Cowboy fan, I think this is going to
get done. But what is the leftover acrimony? If there is,
they're going to agree to a deal. He'll get forty
five million, they'll hug laugh press conference, he'll be ready
to go against the Eagles opening night. But I just
(20:42):
don't know if there's spillover, and you know, as long
as you played, and granted it's a different NFL now,
but does it bleed into the locker room and if so,
what does it do?
Speaker 15 (20:56):
Yeah, I just think that to win, to have a
championship kind of caliber organization, you don't have the right
culture to have that. And we talk about that all
the time, but it's real right to have the kind
of Hey, we're gonna sacrifice for each other, we're gonna
play for one another, we're gonna do those things when
there's some acrimony within that locker room. And ultimately you're right,
(21:18):
you know, they'll agree to terms, they'll shake it out,
they'll hug, everybody be happy. But inside that locker room, man,
you kind of pick sides and ultimately, as a player,
and you know, I'm never I was never a superstar.
You know, I'm not one of those guys that you
know that commands that kind of attention. But you got
to remember that there's probably only three or four of
(21:39):
those guys on each team. You know, the other fifty
guys forty nine guys are me And you start looking
at it from the standpoint of, hey, man, if they're
going to do it to the superstar that's done everything
the right way, the guy that came in here from
the rookie year on and has played multiple positions, played inside,
played outside, We've moved him around and he has just
(22:01):
thrived and he is and he has created opportunity for
us as a defense, and he's done everything the right way.
And you're gonna kind of rake him over the coals
or you're gonna make you You're gonna slow play this
thing with him. Then what's gonna happen when I'm a
free agent, What's gonna happen when I need a new contract?
Speaker 7 (22:16):
What's gonna happen to us?
Speaker 15 (22:17):
And I just think it creates animosity between, you know,
the locker room downstairs and the front office upstairs, and
that's a bad way to have a franchise like to
be able to compete in this league.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
We're talking to Mark Schlareth NFL on Fox Analyst. I'm
looking at the hold out with Cincinnati with Trey Hendricks
and Terry McLaurin with Washington. Which one will have a
bigger impact if they're not ready to go week one.
Speaker 15 (22:44):
I think the McLaurin McLaurin is just a guy that's
gonna get twelve hundred yards regardless of who the quarterback is.
And it's funny when you do Washington games. You know,
when you travel around and to do a Washington game,
you talk to other defensive coordinators around the league. The
number one priority, nine times out of ten is how
are we going to shut that guy down? How were we
going to slow McLaurin down. And so he's not only
(23:06):
that guy for Washington, but he's also that dude that
when you talk to him and he just lights up
a room.
Speaker 7 (23:14):
You know the old saying of there's two types of.
Speaker 15 (23:16):
People in the world, those who light up a room
when they go walk into it and those who light
up a room when they walk out of it. He
lights up the room when he walks into it, right.
He is just a guy that brings energy, brings excitement,
a guy that's super respected within that locker room and
within that community. So that guy, to me makes a
huge difference. Listen, Trey Hendrickson is a phenomenal football player.
(23:37):
Love watching him play, But in Cincinnati, the one thing
they want to do is they want to sit back
and shotgun and throw the football, and like the way
they are built, the way they are constructed, they're going
to try to outscore people.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
That's what they did last year.
Speaker 15 (23:53):
Their offensive coordinator came out this offseason said, Hey, we
just got to outscore people, and I thought to myself,
how'd that work for you last year. It's the dumbest
thing I've ever heard, because the way they're constructed, they're
not a playoff team. They're wasting Joe Burrow because they
they basically make him play the entirety of four quarters
(24:14):
on a high dive, and ultimately, that's a recipe for disaster,
and you got to take that guy off the high
dive occasionally. You've got to give him opportunities just to
take a breather, and they never do. It's all on
Joe Burrow twenty four to seven in Cincinnati. So whether
they sign Hendrickson or not, that's not going to change
(24:34):
the philosophy of how they play.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
I'm always curious how you know former players analysts read
what a rookie quarterback does in the preseason, because this
is what I hear, Well, it's preseason, or hey did
you see.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Jackson Dart light it up?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
And then I go, well, wait a minute, it's just
pre season, Like when does it matter? And when does
it not matter? With Shador Sanders look really good, Jackson
Dart has looked really good. I you know, Jalen Milrow,
I don't know what is real and not real, So
help me out.
Speaker 7 (25:10):
Yeah, I think that. I think that.
Speaker 15 (25:12):
You know, I always say this, and I think I
probably stole it from John Lynch. But the preseason doesn't count.
But it does matter. It matters how you play, It
matters the attitude you have, It matters how you go
out there and execute. And so ultimately, the preseason is
the base of what you do. So if you're talking
(25:33):
about the structure of an offense, for instance, here is
what we are.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
Now.
Speaker 15 (25:38):
As you get into the season, you build on that base, correct,
Like you add plays that go with certain plays, right,
you have adjunct plays based on what the defense does.
Speaker 7 (25:49):
So you're adding to that playbook.
Speaker 15 (25:51):
But the base of what you're going to do is
what you execute in preseason. And if you're good at
that stuff, I mean, I want back to back championships.
In Denver, we ran six plays.
Speaker 7 (26:05):
Now we did it.
Speaker 15 (26:06):
Add a lot of different formations, a lot of personnel groupings, and.
Speaker 7 (26:09):
All that stuff.
Speaker 15 (26:09):
So that requires the quarterback to have more on his
plate and you know, to orchestrate the motions and the
shifts and all that stuff. But the bottom line, you're
good at your base stuff, everything builds off of that.
And so for Jackson Dart or Shadure Sanders, if you
can execute the base stuff, well, if we're really good.
Speaker 7 (26:28):
At that, you know, it's like the ten thousand hour rule.
Speaker 15 (26:31):
It's we've done this as an offense ten thousand times.
Speaker 7 (26:34):
You've defended a one hundred times. We're better than you
and we know it, and.
Speaker 15 (26:37):
We're just gonna go out and now execute you. You
can have success as a rookie. Now, if you have
to trick everything up Dan because you're not very good
and you have to outscheme people.
Speaker 7 (26:48):
Well then you fall into trouble. Right. That's when when
you can't just line up and.
Speaker 15 (26:53):
Say, man, we're really good at these five things and
we can execute these five things and build off of those.
Speaker 7 (26:59):
Well, if you can't do that, then you're going to
be in trouble.
Speaker 15 (27:02):
But if your rookie quarterback can execute those things, I
think you're all right.
Speaker 7 (27:05):
I think you can move forward.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Mark Celera joining us on behalf of Renegade Fantasy, the
first fantasy game app allowing you to actually substitute in
game if your player's not playing well or he gets injured.
I got the details, right, Yeah, yeah, exactly right.
Speaker 15 (27:23):
They say, hey, listen, man, if you're a victim, right,
don't play this game, right. If you want to blame
somebody else, If you want to blame the running back
for not having a great game, you know, and you
want to have an excuse for not winning your fantasy league,
and this is not the league for you. But if
you're a responsibility taker, right and you say, hey, my
running back is sucking hind you know what, we're going
(27:44):
to move on from him, and we're gonna bench him
in the first.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
Quarter and bring somebody else on.
Speaker 15 (27:48):
Or your quarterback gets injured on the fourth play of
the game, like having to Aaron Rodgers a couple of
years ago. Well yeah, you bring your backup in You
still have an opportunity to win your league, great cash prizes.
Can join my league, Mark schleret dot Renegade Fantasy dot
com and uh and we.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Can go head to head.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
You blocked for Trell Davis. He rushed for two thousand
yards and you won the Super Bowl that year, correct, Yes,
And I'm curious if you compared that season to what
Saquon Barkley did last season with the Eagles, who had
a best season.
Speaker 15 (28:26):
Yeah, I mean, Saquon was absolutely amazing. The Philadelphia Eagles,
like just from top to bottom, their roster is just
ridiculously good. So yeah, I just think that one of
the things that has happened here in the recent years,
and this business and the business of football is so cyclical.
I think one of the things that's really been interesting
(28:47):
to me is watch the resurgence of the running game
and how much people are putting, the importance people are
putting into that, and it's really it's really interesting to
watch how offenses have kind of looked at what defenses
have done to them. So this got to be such
a passing league, Dan, and such small people that you know,
in my day, everybody was you know, linebackers are two
(29:07):
hundred and fifty pounds, right, and they're taking on guards
and stuff. Now everybody's two fifteen, two twenty. They can
run like the wins sideline to sideline. They got to cover,
and offenses have just said, well, let's just play Smash Bob,
Like I had this rule when I was playing. If
a fight breaks out and it comes between the little
guy and the big guy punched the little guy, they
go down a lot faster, right, So if you can
(29:28):
get a three hundred and thirty pound guard on a
two hundred and fifteen pound linebacker, let's go.
Speaker 7 (29:33):
Or the fullbacks, like.
Speaker 15 (29:34):
How many fullbacks do you see in the league right
now that are close to three hundred pounds that played
detackle in college, Like it's the way it's going right now.
I've been watching a bunch of preseason I'm watching fullbacks.
They're my favorite players. I watching fullbacks like Ricard and
this Oots kid in Seattle out of Alabama and he's
just shortened necks out there, and I'm like, this is awesome.
(29:54):
I love this style of football.
Speaker 7 (29:56):
I'm in Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I years ago I kept say saying, somebody is going
to be counterintuitive and they're going to run the ball
because everybody was really uh lean. It was all about quickness,
about getting to the quarterback. And I thought, if somebody
gets a running game, it's almost like Whitey Herzog with
his Cardinals in Saint Louis years ago. All they did
(30:19):
is run. Yeah, and I still think you could do
that in baseball where you had speed. Everybody's got power,
but you have speed just to be different than somebody else.
And now you're kind of seeing a renaissance, which I
think is great for the game. I think it's great
that you have these these running backs who are you
(30:40):
know not you know, we basically kind of stripped them
down and said, uh yeah, go out there, maybe past
block and run out for some you know, pass catches.
Speaker 7 (30:49):
Yeah, it's I love it. I love it as well.
Speaker 15 (30:51):
The other thing, you know, you get into is so
there's so much side to side speed and these linebackers,
like I mentioned two fifteen, two twenty, but can run
like the wind, and they get advantages when you run
the ball outside or you flip it out there in
a screen game and all that stuff because they can
just run and go tackle and hit people.
Speaker 7 (31:10):
So one of the things, you know, the.
Speaker 15 (31:12):
Thought process is, all right, well, if they've got the
advantage of going side to side, let's slow them down
and let's not let them move. So let's attack straight
downhill with a tight zone or an ISO play, and
let's put you know, Bob our back on your backer
like our full back at three hundred pounds on your
two hundred fifteen pounds linebacker, and let's make them stop
(31:34):
their feet. Let's take the advantage of speed away from
the defense, and let's just go after them.
Speaker 7 (31:39):
And you've seen a lot of that, man, I love watching.
Speaker 15 (31:42):
Obviously, it's a little bit different in Baltimore because you
got to throw in Lamar Jackson into the mix with
his ability to run. But I love that style of football.
I'd love what they're doing in the run game right now.
And you know, it reminds me of nineties football, which
I'm all about.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Meanest defensive lineman you blocked or tried.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
To, the meanest guy.
Speaker 8 (32:05):
You know.
Speaker 15 (32:06):
John Randall was nasty. I mean, the guy Warren Sapp
was nasty. But the guy that really, like myself and
I think everybody was scared of, was uh, Lawrence Taylor.
I mean, you know, he played linebacker quote unquote, but dude,
you would break the huddle, man, and.
Speaker 7 (32:23):
You'd peak because you didn't want to look right.
Speaker 15 (32:25):
You'd peak, you'd had countercalled and you just kind of
peeked down there and he's frothing at the bit and
he like and you're just like, man, I gotta go
trap this guy, and I know this is gonna hurt
me a lot more than it's gonna hurt him. And
you just didn't want to give him a hint. But
he knew, and he just had that ability as soon
as you come screaming down the line of a scrimmage
(32:47):
man to sink his hips and lower his shoulder and
then just explode into you. You knew maybe just like,
oh man, he dog cussed me a couple of times
and game and I thought for sure he's gonna kill me.
Like I just was like, oh my gosh, may't cut
him one time or something.
Speaker 7 (33:06):
They're like, if you ever do that again, you.
Speaker 15 (33:08):
Know You're like, yes, sir, mister Taylor, I won't never
do it again.
Speaker 7 (33:11):
I promise. Uh.
Speaker 15 (33:13):
Yeah he was. He was frightening. What unbelievable, change the game,
change the game.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yeah, he was the first edge rusher. When you think
we didn't call him an edge rusher. It was just
a linebacker who was fast. And then Derek Brooks No, no,
who was uh uh Derek Thomas.
Speaker 15 (33:33):
Derek Thomas Yeah, yeah, played that played that kind of edge. Yeah,
we counted him as a big I tell you. The
other thing we did with Lawrence is what I was
just talking to you about. He couldn't run away from him.
He chased everything down. So we just ran at him
at all times and made him stop his feet. And
that wasn't very successful either to him. But it was
like the the lesson the.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Lesser veteroth world.
Speaker 15 (33:55):
Yeah, we're gonna get her ass kicked either way, but
we might will get her ass kicked.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
To the point, I remember an offensive coordinator saying that
the best way to go after Alan Page of the
Purple People leaders the Minnesota Vikings, was to go at him.
And you know, I was trying to wrap my head
around that logic that here's their best player Hall of famer,
and he said, you must take away his legs, so
(34:20):
go at him so you know where he is instead
of he's going to eventually catch up to you.
Speaker 7 (34:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
I thought it was a brilliant approach. He said it
wasn't always successful, but at least we knew Alan Page
wasn't going to track down a running back.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
And it's the same with lt.
Speaker 15 (34:35):
Yeah, for sure. There's a couple of guys that we
did that with. I tell you, you know, for the
rap that Bill Belichick gets for, you know, being a
curmudgeon and all that stuff.
Speaker 7 (34:46):
Man I did.
Speaker 15 (34:47):
I did a New England game a couple of years
ago and sat down with Bill and we made our
introductor and introductions around the table, and then he just
looked at me and he goes, We've had some freaking battles,
haven't we. And then we talked about Redskins giants back
in the late eighties, early nineties, and we probably talked
(35:08):
for thirty minutes. Had nothing to do with the game
I was calling, just about that time and game planning,
and it was.
Speaker 7 (35:15):
It was one of the coolest conversations I've ever had.

Tom Selleck.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
Baby.
Speaker 18 (37:18):
But I was, I was.
Speaker 16 (37:21):
I was surfing the old air Quotes cable the other
night and I stumbled across across the show called bye bye, Barry.
What a fantastic job done by all and I had
no idea you were in it DP, which was awesome.
I mean, that was great and just reminded me of
what could have been and how much talent the Lions
(37:42):
just totally mishandled.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
Not good good, Thank you Buddha.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Yeah, I've known Barry a long long time his junior
year at Oklahoma State Aiden in Utah. Hi, Aidan, what's
on your mind?
Speaker 18 (37:58):
Hey, big man, good mon. I'm coming to you for
some life advice on all of your wisdom. This weekend,
I am going to propose to my girlfriend of four years,
and I want any and all advice from you and
all the Dennets.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
What is your plan?
Speaker 18 (38:19):
So I have told her we are having a family
dinner up the mountain, which is something we usually do,
so it shouldn't be she shouldn't suspect it, you know.
And then I have a I have it set up.
There'll be a sign there, I'll tuck away in from trees.
I'll have a photographer hidden away and I'll just walk
(38:42):
around the corner and I shall see it and it
should hopefully be a complete surprise.
Speaker 8 (38:49):
Okay, Yes, Todd one thing that comes to mind for
me because I don't have that because I propose the
JFK airport and I can never go back to that
exact spot.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Is wherever spot he picks.
Speaker 8 (38:59):
Make sure it's a spot that in the future that
you could always go back to that exact spot. Assume
you're just gonna say yes so that that a spot
will always be. Then you'll be able to find it
and go romantically down thereat to SEB and we.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
Just couldn't go back to baggage claim a JFK with
all the construction.
Speaker 8 (39:12):
I have no idea where that spot is anymore. But
all I know is I wish I had done it.
I had to do it because I was. We were
flying out for a surprise trip to Miami after I propose,
But I wish there was a spot where you can
go to the exact place you got on the knee,
which I can't serve.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
You'll only go to JFK if you absolutely have to
go there, that is true. Never never visit for fun.
Speaker 5 (39:29):
Yeah, you know, make sure you got to play aid.
I would say this if your family is going to
be involved or there during the questioning, do it fast
so nobody spoils it like I'm family member, walks in,
sees the girl and says, howd go pull the trigger
real quick?
Speaker 3 (39:45):
Yeah? See yeah.
Speaker 6 (39:46):
I think the longer you wait, the more nervous you're
going to be. So just get in there. Like PAULI said, Also,
in case you're thinking of being funny, you're not as
funny as you think you are. I know that I
don't know you, Aiden, but trust me, you're not as
funny as you think you are.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Don't try to make this funny. Just do it from
the heart.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Good luck, Aiden, we'd like to know about it next week.
Perry and Charlotte Hi, Perry.
Speaker 19 (40:13):
Hey Dan, First Time, Long Time, five ten seventy on
a good day, quick story, and then a question on
promotion relegation college football. I was in the Bahamas a
couple of months back for a wedding and we were
we were taking the rental card to a boat day
an hour of the island. We were trying to find
some music to listen to on the radio. Scan the
(40:35):
radio all I can find our fantash speaking stations until
what do U stumble into the Dan Patrick Show. I
know you joke about having strong followings and you know,
random staves like Stockholm in Tokyo, but I can confirm
you are accessible in that small island of a Luthra
in the Bahamas.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
Awesome.
Speaker 19 (40:53):
Yeah, call back to a conversation just kind of the
past couple of months with promotion relegation college football. What
makes pro row works so well in European soccers. You know,
they have a balanced schedule. They play home and aways
with every team in the league. They play thirty eight
game seasons. No team can say they played, you know,
a tougher schedule than the other due to the league.
Speaker 2 (41:13):
Oh it's Stanholt seaton'll talk. Let's just bring that one
back yet seat and we'll talk to you. Ed Werder,
covering the Cowboys, joins us in about twenty minutes from now.
