valuable and least valuable dan At. Go to Danpatrick dot
com tabulating the votes, and we will close the ballot
(01:31):
box tomorrow at eleven am Eastern to make the big announcement.
Who is the most valuable? There we go and least valuable?
Dan At? What happened to my drum roll? No, I'm sorry,
(01:55):
there you go. That's not exactly a drum roll. All right,
we have a poll question play of the day, Out
of the day, all of that forthcoming, and we'll recap
the college football look ahead to the matchups with Rick
Neuheisel coming up a little bit later on. You know,
it's just math. When you get to the NFL. Your opinion,
my opinion, our opinions, they don't matter. I mean, it's
(02:18):
fun in September and October. All that team's not good.
All that team is going to be great. That team's
a super Bowl contender, he's an MVP. It doesn't matter.
I mean, it all plays out. So your opinion of
the Steelers, it doesn't matter. They won the game controversial, Okay,
(02:39):
should Detroit have won that game? But they didn't, So
it doesn't matter. You don't get points. There's no stylized points.
How many did you win by? You won the game.
That's all it's about. It's survive and move on. So
when we talk about, man, that team's really good or
that team's not really good. Oh, they're going to have
(02:59):
to show me in the playoffs. Like Jacksonville. Jacksonville had
an unbelievable win and it wasn't a fluke. They were
the better team. And I'm still not convinced that they're
that good. But it doesn't matter. They will show us
how good they are. The Packers did everything they could
(03:21):
possibly do to lose that game against the Bears. I
don't know how good the Bears are, but it doesn't matter.
They won the game and back to Jacksonville, they went
on the road and beat a great Denver defense. Okay, Now,
if I said who do you believe in more? The
Texans who I believe have won seven in a row
(03:43):
in the same division with Jacksonville or Jacksonville, you're probably
going to take the Texans. We've seen them more recently,
be better later in the season and get to the playoffs.
What Trevor Lawrence has done supposed to be great. He's
not Tyler Shuck. He's Trevor Lawrence. He's the number one
(04:06):
pick in the draft. But he finally got coached up.
That's really the difference here. Just like Liam Cohen did
with Baker Mayfield in Tampa, he's coaching up Trevor Lawrence.
Now you're seeing what he's supposed to be. He didn't
have good coaching before this. He does now and you
can see the big difference. But what are you going
(04:28):
to say, Let me see what you do in the playoffs?
Like Seattle. I don't know how good Seattle is, but
they've won five in a row. They've played great. So
once again, you don't get stylized points here. It's just math.
You just win and move on. And I think that's
(04:50):
the amazing part of all of this. We had Baker
Mayfield and the Buccaneers Super Bowl contender and MVP that's gone.
Do you believe in the Carolina Panthers. It doesn't matter
if I do or not. If you win, that's the
validation and I think that's the amazing part of all
(05:13):
of this. And remember this going into next season, you
have the Bears, Niners, Seahawks, and Patriots all clinched playoffs spots.
They missed the postseason last year. So we're on a
streak of thirty six consecutive seasons. At least four teams
(05:34):
each season have qualified for the playoffs after failing to
make the postseason the year before. Stat of the Day
brought to you by Panini America. Every year there's going
(05:54):
to be so next year there's going to be four
teams that didn't make the playoffs that will make the
play at least four. Chicago and New England both finished
last in their respective divisions clinched playoff spots. So twenty
seven of the last thirty years, at least one team
(06:15):
has made the playoffs the season after finishing last or
tied for last in their division. The NFL loves this.
The NFL is giving you hope every year you can
actually go into a season and have hope. There's only
a couple of teams where you go no I don't
think so. Now baseball, I mean over half the field, basketball,
(06:38):
over half the field, no chance. But in football you
have a chance to make the playoffs. You can go
from worse to first. And you see that for thirty
six consecutive years, four teams at least four teams not
in the playoffs in the playoffs the following season seton
what's poll questioned today, We're gonna.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Go with one here from PAULI skewing negative. Ooh wow
odd on a Monday right out of the game.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
We don't usually do that.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
It's the playoff, current playoff team you have the least
faith in.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Okay, do we have nominees? We do?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
And it's actually split between college football and the NFL
Alabama Miami Hurricanes.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Why don't we do? Why don't we do NFL? One
one hour in college football?
Speaker 3 (07:27):
The other hour go double up on the negativity?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I guess yeah, but.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
A double negative is a positive.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
It is the season. As somebody said to me over
the weekend, you know, when you take the lesser of
two evils, it's still evil. I'm like, did you throw
them out of your house?
Speaker 5 (07:45):
No?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
I didn't, No, I didn't. You know, Hey, I think
the Christmas party went off really without any issues, any
no snap foos. I will say best dressed family, not
even close, not even close. Shaye and Irving and his
wife and three daughters. They look like they were right
(08:08):
out of a catalog. It was picture day for the
sha Shaye and his daughter and all three daughters. One
of the daughters broke open the pinata so she gets
her name on a plaque. Oh, it was good times,
great oldies. Got everybody out of there by around eight o'clock.
(08:29):
Party ended at six. He had stragglers and we had
one person who stayed until midnight. He wouldn't go and
he's a friend of the family. But they started watching
Father of the Bride. I know, so my wife, my daughter,
no I want, I won't watch it. I will not
(08:52):
watch it. I just said, because my daughter goes, you
should watch it before I get married. I go, hun,
I'm gonna be Father of the Bride. I don't need
to watch the movie. Okay, she goes, I don't know
you and Steve Martin, I go, no hunt. So they
all watched, and you know, they're all crying, and uh
so I said, I'm going to bed, but we pulled
(09:15):
it off. We had the Christmas holiday party and everything
I think went, Oh, you know what I forgot? Todd?
Didn't you have a bet with Marcus in Jacksonville? Who
joins us? Now? Hi Marcus, Good morning Dan. How's your
morning going great? You know, for those who didn't hear
(09:40):
your bet with Todd, could you maybe recap that for us?
Speaker 5 (09:46):
Well, I'm happy you asked, Dan, because I've got three
things for you this morning. I've got some receipts, I've
got a limerick, and unlike the Denver Broncos, I've got
a franchise quarterback.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Ah, what is that? Okay, Marcus? Do we have Marcus's prediction? Okay,
let's play that from last week? He came in firing
from both barrels. Here we go, uh Marcus and Jacksonville.
Hi Marcus, Good morning Dan. I've got a pie of
the face vet for Pristy.
Speaker 6 (10:15):
Here.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
The Jacksonville Jaguars, My Jacksonville Jaguars are going into Denver
to beat the Broncos ass on Sunday. Now, wow, I'm
gonna spot him. I'm gonna spot him thirteen points because
we're winning by at least two touchdowns and we're gonna
win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
I'll think it off there.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
Unbelievable. He's got the Jaguars winning by two touchdowns in Denver.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
He's given you thirteen points.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
I would have probably taken that as a straight up
win for Denver, So I will totally go in with that.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Yeah, I can't blame you about a round of applause
for Marcus, Marcus and Jacksonville. They won by fourteen?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Is that? Marcus and Jacksonville? Marcus from the Caesars Sports book?
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh here we go yet, Todd I walk in. Marcus.
First thing he says is something something he knew, something
I said. He knew your team wasn't as good as Jacksonville.
Speaker 8 (11:02):
Apparently confidently say the Jaguars are going to win in Denver,
a team that's won fifteen straight home games and on
our eleven game winning streak, and that they would win,
specifically by fourteen and.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
The final score was thirty four to twenty is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Okay, And you're gonna get a pie to the face today, Yes, okay,
ridiculous Marcus. Anything else you'd like.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
To add, Yeah, here's my limerick about the game.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Yesterday.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
They said that the Jaguars they'd mint, but Trevor did
not even flinch. With spirals on fire, he climbed even higher.
Now welcome the long waited Prince.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Oh, the Prince takes down the Broncos. Well, Marcus, thank
you and yeah pull.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
After this pie is served to Todd, what about a
future's bet of who goes further?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Your thoughts? Well, I got to ask Todd because he
thinks Marcus knows something. Todd, would you be willing to
take a another bet with Marcus who goes further in
the playoffs?
Speaker 7 (12:03):
Is this a double or nothing?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
And he called the shot, so this has to be
post pie bet.
Speaker 7 (12:10):
Well, we can also go with the fact that he
said the jack was going to win the Super Bowl?
Does he want to do that?
Speaker 8 (12:14):
Is the bet that the Jaguars versus the field to
win the Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I think it'd be fun. How about we just do
it where Broncos Jags, who goes further? And then if
you want to bet him again if Jacksonville goes further
if they win the Super.
Speaker 7 (12:28):
I'm a sucker for content, you know.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
That.
Speaker 8 (12:31):
It seems like I'm kind of in a corner on that.
So yeah, I think the Denvers should go President of
the jaguarn't the players.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
All right, So Marcus, you have a bet who goes
further in the playoffs between Jacksonville and Denver.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
Or when the Jaguars win the Super Bowl. Todd could
just write me a nice memrick back.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Okay, if if Jacksonville wins the super Bowl, then.
Speaker 7 (12:52):
If the Jackuars win the Super Bowl the very least.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
All right, Well, thank you, Marcus. That was quite a call.
He said they would win by least to touchdowns and
he gave you thirteen points at home.
Speaker 7 (13:02):
He nailed it exactly, thirty four to twenty. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
He believes he believes in Jacksonville. But you know, Jacksonville's
playing this victim game like nobody believed in us. No, no,
we would have no reason to believe in you.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
It's it's not like, oh, you did this one year
and then you took a year off. It's you haven't
really done anything.
Speaker 6 (13:25):
Now.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Granted it's been a mess, coaching carousel, the urban mired debacle,
but Trevor Lawrence is supposed to be great. Okay, then
be great, but everybody is going to what feels like
we still want to see what happens has Jacksonville clinched
a playoff spot. I don't think they have technically no. Okay, yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
But when the Jacksonville Jaguars players say nobody believed in US,
it's actually correct, yes, because it's it's still going on.
If a Bill's player said, you know what America is
against US, nobody believed in US, it's not true.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Like I don't believe in the Ravens, and there's reason
to not believe in the Ravens, by the way, and
bad loss. All I could see Derrick Henry just stand
on thost sidelines. I kept going, is he a decoy?
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Like?
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Is the defense gonna go where is Derek? And all
of a sudden, you're gonna run a play and go, ah,
he's right over there on the sidelines. Here's what we're
gonna do. Okay, they prepared for him all week. We're
gonna take him out of the game.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Man, what Yeah, he had already run for one twenty eight.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
John Harball maybe going to the Hall of Fame. But
there are times, you know, when you have coaches and
they do things unless he was hurt, unless something else,
this is you know, in play. I was kind of
surprised at that. I hope Joe Burrow is now having
fun and certainly looked like he did against the Dolphins there.
So there's a few games to recap. We'll get to
(14:56):
your phone calls coming up eight seven to seven three
DP show address DP at Danpatrick dot com Twitter handle
a TP show. Todd will get a pie to the
face at the end of the show. And yes, I
was supposed to get a pie to the face on Friday.
And it's not my fault. Todd made the mistake. You
were confused. You did not. You did not. Your clock
(15:19):
management was horrible, horrible.
Speaker 8 (15:21):
You do not weasel out of anything. You think you
took your glasses off your ear did You had all
the body language as if someone was gonna ge hit
with a pie, and I lost track of time, and
I'm talking and they're begging me to hit you at
the pie, and I think they're tricking me into hitting
you prematurely, and I just totally didn't do it on
time and anything else.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Social media is all over me. I'm like, I didn't
do anything. We had our cameraman saying all right, thirty second,
yelling out thirty seconds, ten seconds, hit him Todd hit
him and I closed my eyes and I'm like, took
off my glasses, go ahead blast me, And you whiffed.
You froze in the moment.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Howard, you weaseled out of it.
Speaker 7 (15:56):
You was supposed to hit with a pie?
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Man, Yes, Seaton, that's how backwards we've actually got Todd
twisted up. That's how just what and how much of
a knot in a pretzel? We have his brain that
even when we're like trying to help him, he's like.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
No, they're messing with me.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Then something wants to be as they're obviously doing something
to me.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I don't know who is going to hit you in
the face with the pie today, but I guarantee you
their clock management will be really good.
Speaker 7 (16:24):
Will happen actually on them.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Yeah, So if you want to pick whoever is going
to hit you in the face, we'll make sure that
they they hit you.
Speaker 7 (16:32):
Brg.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
It could be anybody, anybody you want, Todd.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
We should try in twenty twenty six, we should find
a way to have the dogs hit us with pies
that would actually be Emmy worthy.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah, all right, let's take a break. Ross Tucker will
join us to recap the weekend your phone calls will
get to those best and words to the weekend. We're
back after this on The Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six AMC on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Paully Fools Go here with Tony Foodsco.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (17:06):
As everybody knows, we're the hosts of the award winning
Polly and Toni Foosco Show. Yeah, but instead of us
telling you how great we are, here's how Dan Packrick
described us when he came on our show.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
What what are you doing interrupting our promo? Yeah, you
wasn't talking about you. You took those clips totally of context.
Speaker 9 (17:26):
Oh yeah, well after this promo, I'm gonna take you
out and beat you.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Let me put this into context. Shut up.
Speaker 9 (17:33):
Yeah, anyway, just listen to the Paully and Toni Fusco
Show on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Yea.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
People will be talking lauding the Jags. Oh my god,
they're great. I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna wait until the postseason.
I'm sorry, I'm gonna wait.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
Yes, he's sensing a huge movement to jump on that
bandwid I don't think I'm not quite picking up on
those same vibes.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
I gotta admit, if I say, who do you believe in?
More Broncos, Jaggs, Texans? You can even throw the Patriots
in there. I'm gonna I have a pretty good idea
where the Jags are in that. Yes, I think I
think so too. We don't hand out awards for our
favorite guests, but this guy would be high on the
list in my opinion. He's Ross Tucker, CBS Sports, west
(18:20):
Wood One, and he did Jet Saints yesterday. He'll be
on the call for the Niners Colts tonight on west
Wood One. Round of applause for a great year for Ross.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
Thank you, Thank you guys for having me so much.
I really appreciate.
Speaker 10 (18:36):
I was wondering if you had an award for best guests,
and I was curious where I might fit in.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Should we start one where we put maybe our top
five or six people who join us all the time,
And maybe we'll do that. But you're gonna be up
against Reggie Miller. I mean, there's gonna be a few
people in there, Steve Young, I mean there's I don't know,
do you want that?
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Well, you know how I feel about it, Dan.
Speaker 10 (19:04):
If I'm going to come in first, I think it's
a great idea. If I'm not going to come in first,
I just don't think it's really necessary.
Speaker 6 (19:13):
Let me be first in my own big head. Okay,
let me let me be first in my own big head.
Speaker 10 (19:18):
I'll just assume, based on the feedback I get from
your great listeners.
Speaker 6 (19:22):
That I'm that I'm number one.
Speaker 10 (19:23):
They don't need to have an official vote and ruin
my ruin my expectations.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Okay, If I said, who do you believe in the most?
And I put those teams up there, so the Texans, Jags, Broncos, Patriots,
Who's first?
Speaker 6 (19:42):
Right now? I would say the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 10 (19:46):
And I know you guys said last, and I know
you're not believing him.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
They are really good.
Speaker 10 (19:51):
I mean I watched them a lot, because last week
I did Jets Jags. Okay, think about this for a second.
In a five game stretch, Trevor Lawrence didn't have to
play in the end of the fourth quarter, and four
of those five these are NFL games. This is NFL teams.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
This is not a.
Speaker 10 (20:13):
Power for versus a group of five or whatever anybody
wants to talk about. These are NFL teams where four
games out of five the Jags were able to put
Nick Mullins in the game. Then you go out to
Denver and you dominate the Broncos, like the Jaguars did,
their offensive lines playing very well. This is the best
(20:34):
we've ever seen Trevor Lawrence play. Their weapons are a
lot better than people realize. Parker Washington can play, Brenton Strams,
the tight end can play. They're like Jacoby Myers is
kind of like that guy that's always been just okay,
but people don't like. The Jaguars are sort of that
team Dan that has a bunch of underrated, underappreciated, under
(20:55):
the radar guys that are a lot better than people
realize because they don't play a little marquee games. Even yesterday, Okay,
they're playing the team with the number one seed. They're
playing the you know, the big bad Denver Broncos. That
was a four h five game that wasn't the featured
Tom Brady, you know Kevin Burkhart game that went to
(21:17):
the Steelers Lions, that have the Jaguars played. I think
the Jaguars played the Chiefs like in Week four on
Monday Night. That might have been their only primetime game
the whole year. Defensively, they got a bunch of guys
and as you can tell, and I noticed this last
week when I was there, they have an immense chip
on their shoulder. Liam Cohen, he's from Rhode Island. Okay,
(21:38):
he's got that New Englander in him. He takes offence
to every He doesn't discriminate, he just takes offense to everything.
He even drops the line about Yeah. I mean for
a small market team like us, it wasn't even a
knock by Sean Payton.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
You know.
Speaker 10 (21:52):
Sean Payton was just being honest and realistic. So they'll
take any little edge they can. And I know people say,
does that really make a difference, Yeah, it does. It
just stokes your fire a little bit more. Every day
is not only about the game, It's about every day
during the week, giving you the edge to.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
Prep just a little bit harder. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
And I'm not rooting against the Jags. I want their
fan base to know it doesn't I'm just saying I
got to wait to see it. Happen. Same thing with
the Ravens. You know, I'm Lamar Jackson. Let me see
what you do in the postseason. I mean the Steelers,
I don't know how good they are. I know when
you get to the postseason, you get in and you lose.
(22:35):
So I would like to see a little more from you.
I want to see Drake May and the Patriots in
the playoffs in a big moment there. I mean, I
think that's just natural reasoning with a lot of these teams.
Show me. We said this before. I want to see
what happens with Justin Herbert in a big moment. Yeah,
you can throw for four thousand yards. All of those
(22:57):
things are great. We're a bottom line sports society.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
Well I got news for you. I got news for you.
Speaker 10 (23:03):
Though Dan Mahomes is not making the playoffs, we know
that Burrow's not making the playoffs. We know that it
looks highly unlikely Lamar Jackson is going to make the playoffs.
So think about that. Before the year, if we did
any quarterback rankings, any quarterback discussions, there was a clear
top four.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
There was a clear elite group.
Speaker 10 (23:25):
And we talk about how it's by far the most
important position in the sport and all that three of
the four guys that are clearly coming into the year
the best of the best quarterbacks, three of the four
are not going to the playoffs. I don't think that
the Ravens are going, which, by the way, means Josh Allen.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
The time is yours, bro, I mean, it is your time.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Can there be more pressure on Josh Allen to finally
get to a Super Bowl?
Speaker 10 (23:53):
Yes, there's even more because those other guys aren't in it.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
There's even more.
Speaker 10 (23:58):
But the point I was gonna make a lot of
those teams you just mentioned, right, Jacksonville or Herbert or
you know, the Steelers. Somebody has to win these games, Dre.
I mean a lot of these teams are gonna be
playing against each other. I mean, these are the teams
in the playoffs. So you just named three of the
seventeen that are gonna be in the playoffs and the AFC.
I mean, I guess all three of them could lose
(24:19):
the first round. But somebody has to win these games.
We have to start to believe in somebody because Malmes
he's not coming.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I didn't understand. Now, I understand the call in the
Lions Steelers game that you know, was pass interference offensive
pass interference? If you want to call that, you call that,
But the fact that the play look like it was
still alive. If there's no pass interference, Now I'm going
to play the call here and then I'm gonna come
to you because I have a couple of problems here, Marvin.
(24:49):
Play that the last play there in the Lions game.
Speaker 11 (24:53):
Fourth and goal for the Lions from the nine ball
game on the line right here. They need the end
zone for the win. Jared leans in. There's the snap
on fourth down, Jared back, Jared stepping up. Jared look,
he throwing end zone. It is clot by Amen ras
Shy at the end zone. He flips it back to
Golf who talked it to the end zone for the touchdown.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
There's a flag that came.
Speaker 7 (25:17):
In to flags.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
Did they rule him down?
Speaker 12 (25:20):
Are they going to say pass interference against dom and Raw?
There's no time left on the clock. Here comes Carl Scheffers.
The officials have finally broken. We're gonna get call right here.
Is this game over or not?
Speaker 6 (25:31):
Pittsburgh's staying on the field.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
But really on the field.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
There is a touchdown.
Speaker 13 (25:34):
However, Fagite number fourteen on the offense.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
My rule that penalty is not enforced and there is
no replay, the game is over.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Wow, there is no touchdown.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Okay, talk about a bait and switch. That is embarrassing
for the official. It's a touchdown, but there's pass interference.
There is no touchdown. Game over, good night and drive
home safely. How could you possibly say it's a touchdown
(26:12):
in Detroit and then say, but there was past interference,
no touchdown.
Speaker 10 (26:18):
I think Dan he should have sold it harder and
really pulled off a grinch move there.
Speaker 6 (26:25):
Jeffers should have been like, the ruling on the field
is touchdown Detroit, except unfortunately there's a penalty. Of games over.
You guys lost the yet.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
But I wonder if the whistle because they clearly had
stopped I'm on Ross Saint Brown his forward progress, right.
I don't know if a whistle, but let's say there's
no pass interference, would they I guess they would have
allowed that touchdown because he said that it's a touchdown
except for there was past interference.
Speaker 10 (26:54):
Absolutely they would have allowed it, which would have been incredible.
I mean, I'm in raw of all that was about
blatant a passterference. I don't know what he was doing.
He went right up to the guy and just two
hands shoved him. Probably didn't need to do it, but
he did. But can you imagine if Jared goff on
a pitch back scored the touchdown diving into the end
(27:15):
zone for the Lions to be able to go to
the playoffs, and that that's how that game had ended.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
But you have to call it a touchdown, Dan. If
you're gonna call a two point.
Speaker 10 (27:24):
Conversion in the Seattle Rams game where Sharbonage just walks
over and picks up the ball that's in the end zone,
I gotta be honestly, I had much more of a
problem with that. That to me should not have been
two points for the Seahawks. The whistle blue in that one,
and that one the whistle blew. In my opinion, as
a player, once the whistle blows, nothing after that should count.
(27:49):
Because what would have happened if the whistle blue and
Sharbonage just walking over to pick the ball up. Am
I allowed to just come in and just crack him?
Speaker 6 (27:57):
No? I would have been penalized.
Speaker 10 (27:59):
So if I'm if Sharpenne's going to score the two
point play, but if I came over and just annihilate him,
they would throw a penalty on me. Then you can't
say the two point conversion counts. I had a real
problem with Thursday night, way worse than Cheffer's in that game.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Yesterday, he's Ross Tucker CBS Sports Westwood one. He'll be
on the call for the Niners and the Colts on
Westwood one. What is DK Metcalf doing with the fan?
His team is winning. He's probably going to be suspended
for a game you make contact with the I know
(28:36):
fans say a lot of bad things, negative things, but
you can't. You can't take matters into your own hands.
What do you think the NFL does.
Speaker 10 (28:46):
I think that they probably will suspend him because this
is a lot different than the fan initiating physical contact,
or the fan, you know, somehow coming on the field
or anything like that. DK Metcalf went all the way
over into the stands. It wasn't like the guy was
(29:06):
right behind him. I mean that was a good ten
yards behind him, obviously. Whatever the guy said. The guy
told the Detroit Free Press that he called DK by
his real name.
Speaker 6 (29:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (29:17):
It's whatever the D is and the K is and
I guess I didn't know that, but now evidently DK
does not like that. By the way, now every defensive
back knows the DK does not like if you call
him by his real first name. But you can't do that.
You cannot walk over. I feel very strongly when fans
cross over the line that that's very different to me.
Speaker 5 (29:40):
This.
Speaker 10 (29:40):
You're allowed to say whatever you want to say from
the stands. You're allowed to say whatever you want to say,
and a player cannot go over there and initiate anything,
especially putting their hands on them.
Speaker 6 (29:50):
I think the NFL has to come down on him hard.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Right or wrong. Your game tonight, Explain to me how
the Niners are doing this year.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
They are a really very well coached team.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
I mean, this might be Kyle Shanahan's best coaching that
he's done, and nobody's going to talk about it when
you lose your two best defensive players. Ayukizan no show,
Deebo's gone. I mean, you had Mac Jones for a while.
Now perty in the most competitive division in football.
Speaker 10 (30:23):
It's incredible. You're right, it might be Kyle Shanahan's best
coaching job. You know, they have sixteen sacks. That's by
far the worst in the NFL. Everybody else has at
least twenty two. I'll give Sala.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Miles Garrett has more sacks than the Niners.
Speaker 10 (30:40):
Miles Garrett has six more sacks than the Niners.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
It's unbelievable. I'll give Sala a lot.
Speaker 10 (30:45):
Of credit because you lose two of the top twenty
players in football on defense, and he still has had
a couple of games where they gave up less than
ten points. We'll see what happens tonight. My guess is, Dan,
they'll drop eight in coverage and pack it up and
in and force Philip Rivers to try to have to
fit the ball in tight windows or throw it deep.
(31:08):
But they're just very, very well coached both sides of
the ball.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
The offense is a machine. Here's the other thing. It's crazy.
Speaker 10 (31:15):
Watch the game a night, Dan, and tell me that
McCaffrey hasn't lost just a little.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Yes, definitely, he's lost it.
Speaker 10 (31:23):
And the guy's gonna have two thousand yards from scrimmage.
He's third in the NFL with over he's gonna have
four hundred and eighteen touches. The last time somebody had
over four hundred touches was McCaffrey had four oh weight
in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 6 (31:39):
I'm in awe. Imagine this, Okay, imagine not being.
Speaker 10 (31:44):
The player you used to be and losing a step
or half a step, and yet you go out and
get an NFL football over four hundred times and have
over two thousand yards. That guy coming off of the
two injuries last year, that guy is an absolute warrior.
Speaker 6 (32:02):
I'm incredible. I'm like, he's one of those guys in
my Hall of Fame that I'm in awe of. That
he's able to do is the mental and physical toughness.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
Just like you.
Speaker 10 (32:14):
Just Hey, listen, I had to fly from New Orleans
to through Chicago to Indianapolis to get here to call
a game with unbelievable horror the night.
Speaker 6 (32:23):
I mean, you know, profile is encouraged. I know that.
Speaker 10 (32:26):
I don't know when the last episode they've done is.
But I have to stay and I have to stay
in a Marriott here and I just went to the
M Lounge.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
Breakfast was delicious. It's not easy.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
Man, You're my hero. Thank you, buddy. Merry Christmas to
you save travel.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Yeah, Merry Christmas, guys, thank thank you.
Speaker 2 (32:44):

over at Soldier Field.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
The iceman cometh.
Speaker 14 (33:33):
The iceman take it to forty six yard spirals to
the end zone to DJ Moore.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
What a throw? What a catch? Bears Radio Network, Bud,
you gotta give credit to the Green Bay Packers. You
did everything you could possibly do to lose that game.
And lose that game Malik Willis, though played pretty well.
Bears had won six games this season after trailing in
the final two minutes. It's your play of the day,

By the way, there is a ground swell for a
meet Tuesday. Dylan wanted to know if I'd give him
the okay to get some product from Heartland Stake Co.
I said, yep, it's a whip up a batch of something.
(34:46):
Tomorrow be our final show before the holiday. So we'll
have a meet Tuesday tomorrow to go along with the
Most Valuable Least Valuable dan Net announcement and of course
be much anticipated Most Valuable BRG Seaton.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Who or whom do you believe in least? The Alabama
Crimson Tide or the Miami Hurricanes?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Who or whom do you believe in least? I'm gonna
i'mna say Miami again.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Yeah, of course, of course you're gonna say man right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I think so.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I mean, you know, they did win at A and
m defense is good. I'm just not sold on Carson
Beck leading you to the Promised Land. But uh, Alabama
gotta you gotta give him credit.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Man.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Social media was all over Alabama when it was seventeen
to nothing. Oh Notre Dame should have been in there,
and then all of a sudden they went quiet. And
if you're Oklahoma and you're playing at home, you're up
seventeen to nothing, then all of a sudden, your place,
(36:01):
your punter forgets to punt, your quarterback throws a past
pattern where the receiver, you know, miscommunication. The DV was
the only one there, took it back for the touchdown,
and momentum man to that shift and it never went
back to Oklahoma, all right. A couple of phone calls
(36:23):
in here, David in Ohio, Hi David, welcome back. What's
on your mind?
Speaker 6 (36:28):
Hey Dan?
Speaker 15 (36:29):
Happy holidays you guys, and the Danet's best and worst
of the weekend feelers beating the Detroit Lions and vaulting
Paul's team into the playoffs. You're welcome, Paul. Worst of
the weekend is DK Metcalf taking a swipe of that
Detroit Lions fan uncalled for. There's no place in our
sport for that, So thank you.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
All right, Hi you David Buddha in San Francisco, Hi Buddha.
Speaker 6 (36:56):
What up DP?
Speaker 13 (36:57):
Happy Monday boys, good John Tipps. Let's see well, DP,
you and Ross just brought it up. But it is
so wild to me that my hobbled Niners are in
the position they're in. And I mean if we went
tonight against old Man Rivers, we should be favored against
Pauli Bears next week and then the final week. That's
a nice sen meatball at home against the Sea Chickens.
(37:19):
So excited about that. Best of the weekend, and shout
out to Marcus and Jacksonville and Dan. Some of the
shots of Sean Payton on the sidelines yesterday during the
game were hilarious, like his facial expressions were like, uh oh,
better call Mako because the Jaguars look legit, DP. And
my favorite was Liam Cohen's comments out of the game
(37:41):
about the smaller team market going up to the mile
high and getting that wind. That was snarky.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
I like that.
Speaker 13 (37:46):
And worst of the weekend and the ending in Detroit,
like you guys just talked about it. But I mean,
like my big Mama says, that was embarrassed. I mean
the rest looking confused out there, and also the chiefs
Q b room man. What a fall that has taken
down to the third stream quarterback.
Speaker 6 (38:05):
Not God.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
And CBS has got a show, you know, more replays
like split screen. It took four minutes to decide what
would happen on that final play. All you're doing is
show in the refs and Jared Goff trying to get
involved in the conversation, show the replay. I don't want
to see officials going I don't know, I don't know,
(38:30):
I don't know what about you, I don't know. I
think it's a touchdown, but then it's past interference. All right,
Well make sure you let people know. Don't say it's
a touchdown and then come back and say no on
second time, after further review, it's a touchdown that's called
back because there was past interference on the play. Horrible, horrible, Yes.
Speaker 4 (38:54):
It reminded me of old days with that show American
Idol and Ryan Seacrest, you are going home tonight, like
he would like drag it out and pull the plug.
I couldn't believe the ref said touchdown first.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
It's mind boggling, Yes, Doud.
Speaker 8 (39:11):
If we listen back to it, the official should have
done exactly backwards to what he said.
Speaker 7 (39:14):
The last thing he says it think is there is
no touchdown.
Speaker 8 (39:16):
You've got to make that clear first, and then go
on to explain why there is no touchdown, especially in
Detroit where everyone's gonna lose their minds celebrating it was
a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
You're not going to hear that it's not a touchdown.
All you're gonna hear is it's a touchdown, and then
you're not gonna hear. Yeah, but there was past interference
game over. Oh man, talk about burying the lead. You know,
when you're the official, it took you four minutes and
(39:48):
then you screwed it up. Oh my goodness. All right,
So new Pole question coming up next hour, we'll talk
to Rick Neuheisel. Rick new Heisel promised a college football
song for the holidays, will give you our best and
worst of the weekend, and the popular analyst for CBS
(40:08):
