You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's the final hour on this Thursday, Dan and the
Dan Nets Dan Patrick Show. We'll talk to Dan Orlovsky
of the Motherships schedule released last night. Man to the
Pittsburgh Steelers. Got some tough sledding there. They probably have
the toughest schedule on paper, and they're in the best
division in the league. So you face the NFC East,
the AFC West, and then you have the AFC North
(00:27):
as well. But there's a stretch going to be pretty tough.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
They don't play a in division opponent until Sunday, November seventeenth,
so that's week eleven. That's the first time they face
somebody in their division with the Ravens. Their final eight games,
six of their final eight games are going to be
played in the AFC North. They have an away game
against the Eagles and then a Christmas Day matchup at
(00:52):
home with the Kansas City Chiefs. Those are the only
non divisional games during that stretch. Everything else is against
the AFC North. Now I'm looking at the over unders
for the AFC North. The Bengals ten and a half wins,
the Browns eight and a half wins and I have
the Steelers at eight and a half wins as well.
(01:13):
Now the Ravens are eleven and a half, so it
might be top heavy. Maybe the Browns Steelers aren't going
to be that good or they're going to be hovering
around five hundred. I would think with Deshaun Watson back,
that's a team that made the playoffs with Joe Flacco.
The Steelers have upgraded with Russell Wilson over Kenny Pickett,
(01:35):
and they were on the cusp of making the playoffs.
You know, they're always going to have a winning record,
but you can have every one of those teams be
a playoff team. I mean, it feels like the Ravens
feel like the class of that division. But the Bengals
getting Joe Burrow back, they'll be a playoff team probably
as well. Eight seven seven three DP show email address,
(01:58):
Dpadanpatrick dot com Twitter hand On the DP show, Celtics
said goodbye to the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers going to say
goodbye to Donovan Mitchell. There's a lot of chatter out there,
there's no solid information, and that is Donovan Mitchell last
year of his contract next season. If they were going
to sign him to an extension. They would have done that.
Now the question is what is he going to cost you?
(02:21):
If you want to give a trade proposal to the Cavaliers,
where does he want to go and what can you
offer the Cavaliers in return. I think Darius Garland might
be the guy who is He's gettable. You know, he's
a point guard average twenty points. You know, he got
overshadowed by Mitchell. But he's a good player, and he
(02:42):
might be a guy that you know, some of these
teams San Antonio needs a point guard, Lakers could use
a point guard, you know, a couple of teams that
might be something. I don't know if you have anybody
in the draft who's going to come in and be
able to play right away. There are a lot of
projects in the first round of the draft. So had
Mavericks win at the thunder, Luca did what great players do,
(03:05):
stepped up, gave a triple double. Now you're up three
games to two. You got the Nuggets and the timber Wolves. Tonight,
the Nuggets are a two point underdog. PGA Championship is
underway as well. Pole question for the final hour, what
are you gonna have their seton. We put up there.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
We had who you got this weekend with the PGA Championship.
Scotty Scheffler of the field, Do you want to guess?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I'm gonna guess people are taking the field because they
still don't believe in Scotty Scheffler. Sixty eight percent of
the audience have the field. Okay, okay, Scheffler is the favorite,
then it's Rory and then it's a big leap after that.
De Xander Schoffley and Brooks Koepka and then John rock
(03:47):
I Liken Scheffler to uh Nikola Jokic. They're just really good,
not really exciting, just really good. And I don't know
if they truly love of what they do. They're just
really good at what they do. Like they're not consumed
like Kobe was consumed, Tiger was consumed. I think we
(04:11):
like that. We like the guy that it means everything
to you. Scotty Scheffler is like, uh, yeah, you know,
it's nice. I'd like doing it. Winning. Winning's fun. Yeah,
jokers like what parade? Yeah, let me go back home.
How long do I gotta stay here and dominate? I
gotta go back and feed my horses. But Scotty Scheffler
(04:34):
versus the field and get used to it. Does It
doesn't feel like anybody's going to be up there knocking
on his door. With the players on the Live Tour,
even the players on the PGA Tour. You know, we're
waiting for Rory, and Rory's played well in his last
two outings, but now going through a divorce, he's had
to deal with the whole PGA Tour, Live Tour being
(04:55):
involved in that. Maybe some friction with him and Tiger
with their roles, you know, in that potential merger. But
he's the second favorite here. Now you're waiting for Speeth
to come back. Does he come back? Justin Thomas Jason Day,
John rum Brooks. You know, it's like you got a
lot of guys that you go, oh yeah, okay, they
(05:16):
used to be good competing for these championships. Xander Schaffley
always knocking on the door. By the way, he's leading
the tournament right now. We'll keeping on that. How's Tiger doing?
Is he still over.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
Park plus one at the turn?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Okay, that's all right. I mean I don't know what
the cut's going to be there that It's not like
they pick a course that's not challenging. I mean, it's
the PGA Championship, But I don't know what the cut
line will be with that. If Tiger would make the cut,
that would be a victory for him just to be
able to play four rounds.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Yeah, paul If you look at the leaderboards, you see
all the names, and they always put the country or
the flag next to the person. I know who Xander
Schoffley is. I've watched it much. Every time I see
the American flag next to Xanderschofla'm like, no, that's a mistake.
He's clearly Dutch, yeah, or he's clearly from another country.
It's just it's one of those names that feels like
it's European.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
We talked about the schedule release. The Panthers are the
only NFL team that doesn't have a primetime game. Now,
I would argue with that because the Panthers do have
a standalone game Week ten. They'll be in Germany. That
game starts at nine thirty am Eastern. That technically is
that primetime in Germany. It's not here. But do the
(06:34):
Panthers are they a primetime game in Germany? Yes, Pauline.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Unfortunately, that would be three thirty pm, Oh Germany time.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
They don't even make primetime in Yermany.
Speaker 5 (06:48):
Yes, Ton, you could argue they shouldn't have any afternoon
games either.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
That's a little mean what happened today.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
They obviously have to play their schedule out, but it
proved to be a tea where we wouldn't miss them
if they weren't playing Sunday afternoon either.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Eight seven seven three DP show email undress DP at
Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. You know,
the hardcore fan cared about the schedule because you can
kind of map out your season. What games you're gonna
go to, you're gonna go on the road, when's the
bye week, you're gonna buy tickets. You know, that's when
you all of a sudden go, hey, my team is
(07:25):
playing in a warm weather climate in December. Yeah, let's go. Yes, Tom,
I did that.
Speaker 6 (07:31):
Week three, the Broncos are at Tampa.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
I was considering maybe going down to Florida week three,
and then week four they're at the Jets right here
in New Jersey. So that was my main reason for
checking out what was going on last night. Okay, I
could totally relate to that. I guess is what I'm saying,
thank you to mapping out the schedule.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Where am I going to go?
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Where?
Speaker 6 (07:48):
Where's there a nice one place to see a game?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Nothing wrong with that. I would just be going to
go see your team, go to the Jets. Maybe just
go there then you don't have to fly down to tamp.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
You've been to a Jets game recently? Yeah, yeah, wearing
the opposing colors.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Do not do that. Not wear your Broncos colors in
there that idea.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
No, actually no, it's strange that you say that because
a few years back I went to a Bronco Jet
game and it was pouring rain. I thought the game
was a one o'clock game. It turned out it was
a four o'clock game. So I'm sitting in the parking lot.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
For several hours.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
Wearing my Bronco stuff, as was my son, and there
was people barbecuing and all their Jets regalia, and they
saw me look.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I guess we looked totally depressed.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
And they're knocked on our window and they offered us
some food, which I thought was.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Pretty amazing for Jet fans, knowing that we're wearing orange
and blue.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Off of your food like you were, like you were homeless.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
Yeah, were sitting there and it's like ten after twelve
for a four o'clock game, and like gate or whatever
in a parking lot.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Pouring rain, and you're not a tailgater.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
I'm not a big tailgate.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
It's just me and my son and it's four hours
before kickoff and where they're parking lot.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
How do you make that mistake?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
It's terrible.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Add in Chicago, Hi, Ed, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7 (08:58):
Hey? Dan, I really appreciate you calling me back. Are
we ready to talk to Miami Dolphins Central time?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Let me see, we talked about this earlier in the
week that we were going to spend the final hour
on Thursday. Are you guys ready to talk Dolphins backfield
the entire round?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yeah? Okay, all right, break it down. So okay, did
you did you want to offer anything?
Speaker 5 (09:18):
Ed?
Speaker 7 (09:19):
Yeah, Well, real quick, Crappensburg State, if you were to
become the head coach for the basketball team, are they
only going to shoots?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Yeah? Anyway, Marvin said that, Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 7 (09:29):
I think Mostard has the He's the guy with the
most experienced even though as Shane came on very strongly
last year on the on the depth chart. Currently Mostard
is still number one. I think they got to get
a more more plays out of the backfield circle routes,
out of the backfield screens, that type of thing. A
Shane Again home run threat guy can do a lot
(09:50):
of things third down back I think going into the season,
and then you have Jalen Wright and Jeff Wilson Junior,
who I don't really think are going to make an impact.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Thank you, Ed, You know what I was going to
spend the entire hour. I don't need to. Ed just
summed it up.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Yes, Paul, don't sleep on Jalen Wright, the fourth round
pick of the Dolphins out of Tennessee. He's a good
running back. He led the Tennessee with a thousand yards
rushing seven point four yards of carry.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Nice pick up Jeff Wilson Junior. By the way, North Texas,
Larry and Austin Hi. Larry wents on your mind today.
Speaker 9 (10:21):
Hey, Dan, Your discussion earlier today about parties and birthday
parties reminded me of a documentary Turner Classic Movies did
on Dean Martin. He wasn't a big fan of party
as well well know now, but his wife would have
parties all the time, and he would breef the gas
and then disappear upstairs to watch TV, and, according to
(10:44):
the documentary, on more than one occasion he would call police.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Report a loud party. Thank you, Larry. I'm not at
that point, you know, because when I want to go
to bed, I want to go to bed. My wife.
You know. One year we had a Christmas party and
the basement is packed, music is thumping, It is crazy,
(11:07):
and I try to sneak upstairs and my wife goes,
where are you going? I go bed and she goes, no,
You're not go back down there until everybody leaves. Three
hours later they finally left. I had a great time too. Yes, Mark,
(11:29):
are you having a big retirement party?
Speaker 6 (11:30):
No Christmas Eve slash retirement party?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Go No, No, We'll have a Christmas party and that'll
be it. But uh and that'll be everybody outside. We'll
have a barbecue. That's it. And no matter what the
weather is, we're doing. My wife goes, you know what
I'm thinking, how about for the Christmas party? Now she's
already planning the Christmas party. So Chad from Tragger comes up.
(11:56):
We cook, it's great. We you know, get a keg
Miller Lite. You know, we'll have our moonshine there. Food's awesome.
She goes, you know what I'm thinking, how about ax throwing?
They go, okay, for the kids instead of the pinata, Well,
we have the pinana, we have the grown up pinata,
(12:17):
and then we have the kids pinata. But she wants
to bring out some ax throwing experts. And you have
a van or some kind of vehicle and then you
go into it and you get to throw axes. And
I'm like, okay, I guess, like who's going to be
there watching to see who goes in? Like, I can't
(12:39):
have a seven year old going I want to throw
an axe. Paulie.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Yeah, there's a couple of companies. There's a extreme entertainment there.
It's a mobile ax throwing company. There's a lot of
plays on words, extra extra, you better ask somebody. Yeah,
so yeah, there's mobile axe throwing. You can have them
come to your house. Sign a whole lot of waivers
and three a great.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Yes do invited guests have to stand there with like
this balloons to your left and right, and the act
professional act hits all the balloons instead of hitting you
in the head with the axe.
Speaker 6 (13:09):
That would probably ruin the party. If there was an accident.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
There, it would be an axe there you go serious acts.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
If you watch online, there's those axe throwing bars around
America and they're pretty well regulated. Those like little stalls
and you can't hit the person next to you. But
what happens is you get a couple of pops in
you and a guy gets a little too close. It's
the kickback. The axe does not make contact and stick
and it goes back and nails someone in the fore.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
I was thinking skeet shooting. I mean, how about that?
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Why not.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Can a little ball?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Uh? Jenna in Indiana? Hi, Jenna, what's on your mind?
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Ah?
Speaker 10 (13:48):
Yes?
Speaker 9 (13:48):
Hi five?
Speaker 11 (13:49):
Five first time, first time, long time and happy birthday
to you Dan.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Well, thank you, Jenna.
Speaker 11 (13:56):
I I am calling today to brag, I guess, as
well as give the shout out to my husband Ryan.
His worst nightmare came true on Sunday. I got a
hold in one on Mother's Day and he has never
gotten one, and he was always afraid I was going
to get one before him. I started golfing just about
(14:18):
eight years ago and he's been golfing all his life.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
He's fifty years old.
Speaker 11 (14:23):
He's been so sweet about it, but I know deep
down he is really pissed off.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Well, congratulations Jenna on your first hole in one and
you ruin somebody else's day in the process. Congratulations, thank you. Okay,
that's Jenna. Just be happy for someone else. Yeah, Todd, he's.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
Been so supportive. I think I'd go on national radio
and TV and rub it in down. Tell the Dan
Patrick Show what I did.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Yeah, stupid Ryany and such a baby Ryan. Yeah, be
happy for Jenna.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Man, I'm so lucky paul in it. There is a
lot of luck Paul and Illinois. Hi, Paul wents on
your mind?
Speaker 7 (15:01):
Hey Dan uh?
Speaker 12 (15:02):
First, like, I give a shout out to fellow Paul
and SIU alum polypaps.
Speaker 9 (15:08):
I got a question for Paulie.
Speaker 12 (15:09):
I'd like to know what bars he used to frequent
when he was in Carbondale, and I got it figured
out why Doug Gottlieb took that job at UW Green Bay.
He finally wanted to crack a top ten list.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
Oh, because here's high as the tenth coach hired. There
is that the top ten list?
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Oh? Oh it is?
Speaker 6 (15:31):
I think he was the tenth all time higher by
the but that school.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Wow, that's okay.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
I think that's what he meant.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Okay, all right, well, thank you, Paul. All right, let
me take a break Dan Orlovsky for the motherships going
to John's. You know, I think the whole Dolphins we
should have gone with the Dolphins backfield. I should have
just done the final hour on the Dolphins backfield.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
You can ask Dan, we could break down the Dolphins
backfield with him exclusively. If you were a quarterback and
you had the Dolphins backfield, would you want.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
To see I need some rounds out of the backfield,
you know. I gotta be able to have somebody who
can pick up the blind side blitz.
Speaker 6 (16:06):
Yes, what bars did Paul go to in Carbondale? I'm
just waiting here.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
No, nobody's really waiting for that. I can't all of them,
equal opportunity.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Everyone, all of them. Yeah, Okay, I'm gonna take a break.
We're gonna rally, We're gonna rebound, and we're gonna do Come.
Speaker 6 (16:20):
On, Let's come on Keith bers next, come.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
On, Fires take a break back after this Dan Patrick show.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
He's the popular analyst on the Mothership. He's Danie Rolovski,
former NFL quarterback, and you can see him Monday through
Friday on NFL Live. They start at for Eastern. Help
me understand the allure of the New York Giants on
Hard Knocks off season, Well, I think at.
Speaker 10 (17:30):
One it's their one hundred year anniversary, so I'm sure
that's got a relative attachment to the NFL, the history
of the organization, So like that's the tree top I
think the initial just as the everyday fan, how serious
were they about drafting a quarterback at number six. We're
going to find out how real that was, you know,
(17:50):
And maybe some of their I guess, internal feelings about
Daniel Jones instead of what necessarily gets shared up in
public through the media, how much they loved the elite
neighbors in comparison to like the rome O Doomsay conversation,
because I had heard sometimes like maybe they were gonna
take rome Oh Doomsay because melite neighbors lsu objh.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
So I think that a little bit.
Speaker 10 (18:16):
More of why Wink Martindale isn't there, you know, maybe
that relationship because that defense really started to become a
difference maker at the end of last year and you know,
new defensive coordinator instead of weak Martindale, So maybe a
little bit of that. And Brian Dable went from oh
my gosh, coach of the year, this guy's completely changed
the culture to now, hey, if he doesn't win, we're
(18:37):
gonna fire them, which I always find crazy. And then
probably like, how how serious were they into keeping Saquon
Barkley And was there any regret from the year before
of not paying site Saquon and instead of paying Daniel
Jones type of thing.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Give me the team or teams that your opinion changed
after the schedule was released.
Speaker 10 (19:02):
Okay, So I think Miami's final six games, and I
felt like Miami would be a team that would be
very different in back in November December than they would
at the start of the season just because of the
injuries that they sustained last year. Jalen Phillips would be
coming back, Bradley Chubb would be coming back more than likely,
and so I thought like, hey, if they could get
(19:25):
you know, hang around early on and then somewhat of
a favorable schedule on the back end, at least hypothetically,
they got a chance to continue to be into that
playoff conversation. Their final six games are absolutely brutal. I
think five of the six games will be more than
likely playoff teams, and I'm pretty sure three of those
(19:46):
six games are on the road in cold weather. I
think they go who Green Bay Thanksgiving the second to
the last or third last week of the season. They
go on the road to Cleveland and then on the
road to New York Jets to the New York Jets,
And so I felt really good about Miami because I
honestly believe they could weather the storm. They still might,
but those final six games are absolutely brutal. I think
(20:09):
Houston's schedule is favorable just because it doesn't feel like
there's that you know when you're finding Like for me, Dan,
I'm always looking at these schedules to sit there and go, Okay,
is there a stretch where you feel, if they're playing well,
they can get hot?
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Like is there a three, four, five game stretch where
you go win every one of them? Type things?
Speaker 10 (20:29):
And I don't think that there's an overwhelming three or
four game stretch in houston schedule where you sit there
and go, whooh, that is just you could be staring
zero four in the face type of thing. So I
felt really good about Houston, you know, in general, but
seeing their schedule. In the same with Seattle, I think
seattle schedule lends itself to have a lot of success
(20:51):
for a football team that is a little bit unknown.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
I've been talking about the Steelers with that stretch where
they have eight games, six are going to be in
the division, and then they pop out to play the
Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 10 (21:03):
Is that the back is that the back Then there's
two yes, yes, that one. When we were doing the
reveal last night in Na Gandhi Kevin, we went through
the schedule, looked at a little bit and then he
was like, wait guys, and we had to bring it
back up. That final seven or eight game stretch is
absolutely brutal. You then like you could sit there and go,
(21:24):
they could lose all seven just because of how good
that schedule stretch is.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Well, they're going to be playing eight games, six are
in division and then they play the Eagles and the Chiefs,
so you could they could conceivably lose all of those games.
And that's why they're over under his eight and a
half wins this year, even with an upgrade at quarterback
with Russ.
Speaker 8 (21:47):
Yeah. Yeah, that was something that jumped out last night.
Speaker 10 (21:50):
Was because the division is going to be now a
big part of this whole conversation when it comes we
have this when it comes to the AFC North, them
and I would think the NFC North are the two
best divisions, the two deepest divisions within the NFL, and
Cleveland has this talented or roster maybe in the NFL,
(22:11):
but certainly in that division. We have no idea if
Deshaun Watson can play at a high level week in
a week out anymore, we just don't. So as much
as we love and I think if Jamis had to
go play, Jamis could play good football.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
But that's not as daunting of a Hey, you got
to play them late again in the year. If Deshaun's
not playing at.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
High level, Yeah, but why don't we know that what
to expect out of Deshaun Watson?
Speaker 14 (22:35):
Now?
Speaker 10 (22:36):
I think the last time we saw him play at
a high level consistently was two thousand and twenty because
he sat out twenty one. He didn't play a ton
in twenty two, right, because the suspension and then the
injury last year. Now, that second half against Baltimore, when
that injury happened, there were shades of it. There were
(22:58):
signs of him looking like vintage Deshaun Watson did for
that three or four year stretch of Houston.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
But I mean, Dan, we're going to go on almost
four years or at least three years of.
Speaker 10 (23:09):
Him playing high end football consistently over the course of
a couple of months.
Speaker 8 (23:15):
So that's why we just don't know.
Speaker 10 (23:16):
And love, I love Joe Burrow, I've been a fan
of Joe Burrow since I saw him be the baddest
person on the planet in the National Title Game.
Speaker 8 (23:24):
He's got to stay healthy.
Speaker 10 (23:25):
And there's a little bit of that question mark attached
to Joe now as well.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I'm talking to Dan Orlovsky the Mothership NFL live Monday
through Friday. If you want to stay tuned in with
the NFL, it's must see TV. That's it for Eastern
every day, Monday through Friday. I'm looking at the Chiefs
and I wondered, now, I also checked Taylor Swift concert
schedule and she was going to be in Canada, and
(23:52):
a listener even asked, you know, did I think that
the NFL would maybe try to orchestrate a game where
the Chiefs would be close by? So you have Taylor Swift?
And I said, well, check when she's in Toronto and
check when the Chiefs are in Buffalo come on same week,
four o'clock game. Do you think that the NFL did that.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
I don't think that's I don't think that's coincidence.
Speaker 10 (24:24):
One thing I have learned, and you have been around
this league and the way it covers the you know,
and it brings it to the fans longer than us.
They are as smart as they can possibly be, and
that is not coincidence. I also don't think there is
anything wrong with it. I think it's highly intelligent. I
(24:45):
think what she has brought to the NFL is nothing
but positive, and I do not believe that to be
a coincidence. I think that's unbelievable by you as well.
Did you say that before the schedule release?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I said, check to see when the Chiefs play Buffalo
and where she is in Canada, and then it turned
out it's the same week, and I go, Okay, that's
not a coincidence, not at all, not a coincidence. Okay,
we have a bet. I have a bet with Fritzy
Wedding Cake to the Face that Taylor Swift and Travis
Kelsey will get engaged this season.
Speaker 8 (25:20):
I'm taking whatever I can on the.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Yes, okay, so you're with me. Todd said no because
he doesn't love love you and I love loves message.
Speaker 8 (25:29):
Yes, yes, yeah, No, No, hopeless romantic for him. He's
not a rom common type of guy.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
No, No, he's not. No.
Speaker 8 (25:35):
I mean I cried when I watched Like the New.
Speaker 10 (25:40):
I'm a movie crier, so even like, like some of
the new movies that have been remade that I know
the endings, I'm gonna cry at them. So I'm like,
I'm wired emotionally anyway. But I'm saying, yes, I'm that.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
You ever cried during a football game when you were playing?
Oh gosh, yes, yeah, I mean during the game. Oh absolutely, Yeah,
Yeah I've cried. I mean the first I'll give you
some cry football stories, Dbate. First time I ever played football,
I was playing quarterback. I was nine years old.
Speaker 10 (26:11):
I went dropped back to pass on my first pass
in practice, I got slapped in the arm like this.
Speaker 8 (26:18):
I cried like a baby.
Speaker 10 (26:19):
I ran to the parking lot, and I wanted to
never play football again.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Thank God that my father didn't allow me to.
Speaker 10 (26:27):
Definitely cried during college football game, just in some pain moments.
Speaker 8 (26:31):
I cried against the Vikings, not for running out of
the end zone, but for a hit that I took
in a game that made me like tear up. I cried.
I cried definitely pregame right after Sandy Hook.
Speaker 10 (26:42):
Not to get morbid in a like a laughing manner,
but yeah, I've definitely cried in multiple multi I'm a crier, though, dude. Like,
my daughter made a soccer team last night, and when
she told me the news, I cried.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
So I cried, oh, I'm right there with you. Yeah,
like my kids will be. You know, we went to
see Book of Mormon on Broadway. It's a comedy. I
cried at intermission. I'm crying. My kids go, what are
you crying about? I go, I have no idea, but
you know what gets me every time?
Speaker 10 (27:15):
I'm sure you have gone down to disney World and
seeing the lights and fireworks show on Magic Kingdom.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
You know when they do that.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I cried to yep, I did. My kids were little,
and I'm thinking I never got this experience. My parents
drove us to Disneyland. We didn't go into Disneyland, but
that was our vacation. I got my kids out there,
and you know, they got all the fireworks and all
the you know, Goofy and Pluto and Donald Dunck, and
(27:47):
I'm going, oh my god, how lucky are these kids? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (27:52):
Every time?
Speaker 2 (27:52):
All right, is there any reason to doubt the Chiefs?
Speaker 8 (27:57):
Of course?
Speaker 10 (27:58):
I think number one, just coming off of last night,
the start of their season obviously is very difficult, and
the finish of their season is very difficult. Their first
two games are gonna be big deals obviously Baltimore Cincinnati,
and I don't exactly remember what their final four games
are off the top of my head from last night,
but their final four games are challenging.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
We have no idea what's gonna.
Speaker 10 (28:20):
Happen with Rashie Rice, you know. And when I said
this last night, I said, well, we don't know, you know,
how long, you know, and Chefty cut me off and
he's like expected Rashie.
Speaker 8 (28:32):
Rice to not be there for part of the season,
you know.
Speaker 10 (28:36):
So it's like, Okay, Cheffie's saying that, so you know,
you don't know how long Rashie Rice isn't gonna be there.
And Rashie Rice became a really big deal for them
last year. He was their one B, not their number two,
their one B. He we would be part of blocking
and to get out in some of their pass routes.
I understand it's Patrick, I understand it's Andy Reid, but
he was a really big part of what they really
(28:58):
became a possession guy for them. That's not who Xavier
Worthy is, That's not who Hollywood Brown is. And so
to not have that is certainly there that gives pause.
And we don't know who's going to be playing left tackle,
so that certainly allows pause. Lageriously needs the best man
and man cover corner in the NFL. Certainly in the conversation,
not there anymore. So I'm not sitting here saying they're
(29:20):
not going to get in or they're not the Super
Bowl favorites. Absolutely, but there is no reason and realistic
and real pause to see, Well, let's see what they
look like, or how long he's out or how great
that defense is without that lockdown cover corner.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Well, the Chiefs their last game is at Denver, so
they may catch a break at the end of the season.
And you know what, speaking of the Broncos, like Sean
Payton's got a hit on this quarterback here. Yeah, I
mean this is really important. I don't know what you
think of bow Nicks, but I mean they're over unders
five and a half wins this year. He's got one
more year. It feels like before all of a sudden,
(29:58):
it gets a little bit warmer there.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (30:01):
Absolutely, I would start bow next week one, and that's
a daunting thing because Denver's on the road in Seattle.
And then week three they played Tampa Bay and then
Week four they played the New York Jets. So if
this was any other rookie quarterback, if we were talking
about maybe even like a player like a Drake May who,
while he's played a ton of college snaps, has got
(30:22):
to you know, he's got the game that he needs
to work on, the reason why I say play week
number one, even though it's Mike McDonald new head coach
and all these crazy blitzes bo Knicks one has sixty
one career starts, he has played and seen a ton
of college football. Number two he's got thick skin. Now
you know he went highly touted Auburn. Oh you can't play,
(30:46):
you stink, leave the SEC. You can't play anymore. Go
So like the weathering, the dealing with failure, because I
do think it's going to be a bumpy first month
because of those teams, because you're playing Seattle crazy bitzer
is Tampa Bay crazy blitzes, and the Jets obvious suffocating.
Speaker 8 (31:01):
But I think Sean Bayin's got to start.
Speaker 10 (31:03):
Him if he even looks remotely close to being capable
of operating their offense. And that first month has got
to be this weather weather, the storm, learning experience, beat
tough skin, and hopefully he starts to play his best
football as they get into October.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
What do you expect out of the Chargers first year?
Speaker 10 (31:22):
Yeah, I have the expectation that they'll absolutely play meaningful
football games in December. I think Hardball's too good of
a coach. I think their offensive line is going to
play too much in control of football games. Just stylistically,
I think their tight ends will be a much bigger
part of their their football team pass game wise than
(31:44):
people believe. I love the addition of Lad McConkie. You know,
Quenton Johnson's got to take a step forward. I think
the defense will play a little bit more consistent than
it did Brandon Staley. So I'm not giving them the
division and I'm not giving them a playoff spot, but
I am saying they'll be playing meaningful football games in December.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
And I love what Harball is doing. And I've been
saying this for years that somebody is going to have
a different approach and not going to be throwing the
ball forty times. That he wanted to have an offensive
line just like he did at San Diego, Stanford, San Francisco, Michigan,
and that's what he's going to do. He could have
taken a wide receiver, could have taken a tight end,
(32:23):
and all along I kept thinking, he just going to
build that offensive line again, yep.
Speaker 10 (32:28):
And I'll always go back to the quote he shared
this offseason that and it's what I've believed for a
long time and try to articulate. He just did it
better when he said every position is dependent upon the
offensive line. The offensive line is dependent on no one
and that you know, I've always said, like, if you've
got a great offensive line, the skiel players are better
(32:49):
than they actually are. And the same with the quarterback.
But if if you have a great quarterback, it doesn't
you know, the offensive line being poor negatively affects him.
So now I kind of had that same thought the
way he was going to kind of build that football team.
Speaker 8 (33:02):
And I just think that they it's cyclical.
Speaker 10 (33:05):
They you know, for two years, I have felt that
the offensive line was gonna or the NFL. For two years,
the NFL was going to trend towards going back to
early two thousands football, and that was going to be
a little bit more focus on shrinking down formations, let's
pound the football bigger linebacker is going to be needed,
run stopping, defensive tackles. We got to control the line
(33:27):
of scrimmage. And it feels like, you know, thirty five
percent of the league is at that point right now.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Anybody have more pressure on them this year than Dak Prescott.
Speaker 10 (33:43):
I mean Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. I
mean that was a really big deal last year. We
just not talked about it this much this year. But
I think everybody within the New York Jets and Aaron
Rodgers for sure. I mean it's because the expectations are
the same as last year, Like you got to win
a Super Bowl. It's the best roster that Rogers has
been on in a decade when it comes to real talent.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
And so you know, Dan, I would.
Speaker 10 (34:08):
Have thought, yes about Dak Prescott and then Marcus. Yesterday
we were on this, you know, the schedule release showing
Marcus like that ain't got no.
Speaker 8 (34:16):
Pressure on him, and I pushed back and I was like,
you go out of your mind.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
He's like her.
Speaker 10 (34:20):
Cousins just got one hundred guaranteed in one hundred and
sixty million dollar contract. If Dak hit the open market
right now, he's gonna get two hundred, and I don't
disagree with them.
Speaker 8 (34:30):
Jared Goff has got a buck seventy.
Speaker 10 (34:32):
Now, Jared Goff's going to Super Bowl an NMC title game,
but he just got a buck seventy. And because of
who Dak is and you know the consistent performance that.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
He does bring more often than not.
Speaker 10 (34:44):
Yeah, I while there's like the pressure to okay last
year your contract, Dak Prescott is going to get a
good jillion dollars next offseason, either from the Cowboys or
someone else.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Great stuff as always, Thank you, Dan, Thanks boss. That's
Dan Orlomski ESPN and list part of NFL Live and
you can watch you Monday through Friday at four eastern.
Speaker 6 (35:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
I thought about that with Dak Prescott, that you know
he's going into this contract year. The expectations are always
get to the playoffs, can you win another super Bowl?
And his day is saying so if you don't like,
you're still going to get paid. I didn't think of
it that way. And then as far as Aaron Rodgers, yeah,
I understand, well the expectation level is tempered a little
(35:26):
bit because of what happened with Rogers, but still Jets fans,
they're going to expect they're going to the playoffs, they're
going to play in big games. Maybe they're going to
play in a super Bowl. But Dallas fans they feel
the same way. All Right, we'll take a break. Last
call for phone calls. Uh just found out that Drew
Brees will Jonas on the program tomorrow. We're back after this.

in Oregon. Hi, Sean, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 15 (37:48):
Hey Dan? I respect lucas honesty. You know, if you're
not playing defense and then you play defense, it's good
to let people know you're playing defense. And Fritzie is
pretty much the only person I can actually relate to
on this show because he won't take a pie in
the face. What do you get at that? You know,
and it's not like you're buying me and my family
(38:09):
dinner or anything else. Brother and way to go a
three piece had a great weekend.

I've taken a number of pies to the face, and
I just signed up for a wedding cake to be
put in my face.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not sure. I gave you a little shot.
That's a right back Rows getting roughed up this week.
Speaker 6 (38:32):
It's gotta get your fact straight before you start taking shots.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
He's gonna come at to King. I felt like that
was actually in supportive Todd. Oh it was, Yeah, I
don't think that he was taking a shot at Todd.
I think he was supporting Todd. Oh okay, and then.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Like Todd gets hit in the face. But what does
he get out of it? It's not like.
Speaker 3 (38:50):
Anybody's getting it. But I don't know, maybe I'm wrong'kay,
I don't know. It's not you think that normal that
people come to Todd's defense.

No no, no, no, he's saying you should you know,
listen to your own advice.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
Yeah, getting there four and a half hours in the
point ram before the start of the game is not
a good time.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
So you thought it was a one o'clock start?
Speaker 5 (39:42):
Yes, I got there like twelve plenty of times to
get some food find our seats four oh five kickoff?

just Alexander last place? Oh yeah, let's see, how about
we go around the room.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
What did you learn on the program today, Todd?
Speaker 6 (40:17):
The Chiefs are playing at the Bills mid November.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
And wouldn't you know what.
Speaker 5 (40:20):
Taylor Swift performing in Toronto then because you can comfortably
attend the game.
Speaker 9 (40:23):
Hmm.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Coincidence?
Speaker 3 (40:24):
I think not see no con as far as he's aware.
Kirk Cousins is the starting quarterback I know of the Falcons.
I wanted to know could he play today? And he
said if they were in the Super Bowl today then
he would be able to play.
Speaker 2 (40:39):
Marvin Judy Dench also for her achilles, Yeah, Dame Judy Dench.
Also Brad Pitt and George Clooney have ruptured their achilles. Yes,
Paul Orlowsky, big crier. Yeah I no, yeah so am I?

You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's the final hour on this Thursday, Dan and the
Dan Nets Dan Patrick Show. We'll talk to Dan Orlovsky
of the Motherships schedule released last night. Man to the
Pittsburgh Steelers. Got some tough sledding there. They probably have
the toughest schedule on paper, and they're in the best
division in the league. So you face the NFC East,
the AFC West, and then you have the AFC North
(00:27):
as well. But there's a stretch going to be pretty tough.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
They don't play a in division opponent until Sunday, November seventeenth,
so that's week eleven. That's the first time they face
somebody in their division with the Ravens. Their final eight games,
six of their final eight games are going to be
played in the AFC North. They have an away game
against the Eagles and then a Christmas Day matchup at
(00:52):
home with the Kansas City Chiefs. Those are the only
non divisional games during that stretch. Everything else is against
the AFC North. Now I'm looking at the over unders
for the AFC North. The Bengals ten and a half wins,
the Browns eight and a half wins and I have
the Steelers at eight and a half wins as well.
(01:13):
Now the Ravens are eleven and a half, so it
might be top heavy. Maybe the Browns Steelers aren't going
to be that good or they're going to be hovering
around five hundred. I would think with Deshaun Watson back,
that's a team that made the playoffs with Joe Flacco.
The Steelers have upgraded with Russell Wilson over Kenny Pickett,
(01:35):
and they were on the cusp of making the playoffs.
You know, they're always going to have a winning record,
but you can have every one of those teams be
a playoff team. I mean, it feels like the Ravens
feel like the class of that division. But the Bengals
getting Joe Burrow back, they'll be a playoff team probably
as well. Eight seven seven three DP show email address,
(01:58):
Dpadanpatrick dot com Twitter hand On the DP show, Celtics
said goodbye to the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers going to say
goodbye to Donovan Mitchell. There's a lot of chatter out there,
there's no solid information, and that is Donovan Mitchell last
year of his contract next season. If they were going
to sign him to an extension. They would have done that.
Now the question is what is he going to cost you?
(02:21):
If you want to give a trade proposal to the Cavaliers,
where does he want to go and what can you
offer the Cavaliers in return. I think Darius Garland might
be the guy who is He's gettable. You know, he's
a point guard average twenty points. You know, he got
overshadowed by Mitchell. But he's a good player, and he
(02:42):
might be a guy that you know, some of these
teams San Antonio needs a point guard, Lakers could use
a point guard, you know, a couple of teams that
might be something. I don't know if you have anybody
in the draft who's going to come in and be
able to play right away. There are a lot of
projects in the first round of the draft. So had
Mavericks win at the thunder, Luca did what great players do,
(03:05):
stepped up, gave a triple double. Now you're up three
games to two. You got the Nuggets and the timber Wolves. Tonight,
the Nuggets are a two point underdog. PGA Championship is
underway as well. Pole question for the final hour, what
are you gonna have their seton. We put up there.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
We had who you got this weekend with the PGA Championship.
Scotty Scheffler of the field, Do you want to guess?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I'm gonna guess people are taking the field because they
still don't believe in Scotty Scheffler. Sixty eight percent of
the audience have the field. Okay, okay, Scheffler is the favorite,
then it's Rory and then it's a big leap after that.
De Xander Schoffley and Brooks Koepka and then John rock
(03:47):
I Liken Scheffler to uh Nikola Jokic. They're just really good,
not really exciting, just really good. And I don't know
if they truly love of what they do. They're just
really good at what they do. Like they're not consumed
like Kobe was consumed, Tiger was consumed. I think we
(04:11):
like that. We like the guy that it means everything
to you. Scotty Scheffler is like, uh, yeah, you know,
it's nice. I'd like doing it. Winning. Winning's fun. Yeah,
jokers like what parade? Yeah, let me go back home.
How long do I gotta stay here and dominate? I
gotta go back and feed my horses. But Scotty Scheffler
(04:34):
versus the field and get used to it. Does It
doesn't feel like anybody's going to be up there knocking
on his door. With the players on the Live Tour,
even the players on the PGA Tour. You know, we're
waiting for Rory, and Rory's played well in his last
two outings, but now going through a divorce, he's had
to deal with the whole PGA Tour, Live Tour being
(04:55):
involved in that. Maybe some friction with him and Tiger
with their roles, you know, in that potential merger. But
he's the second favorite here. Now you're waiting for Speeth
to come back. Does he come back? Justin Thomas Jason Day,
John rum Brooks. You know, it's like you got a
lot of guys that you go, oh yeah, okay, they
(05:16):
used to be good competing for these championships. Xander Schaffley
always knocking on the door. By the way, he's leading
the tournament right now. We'll keeping on that. How's Tiger doing?
Is he still over.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
Park plus one at the turn?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Okay, that's all right. I mean I don't know what
the cut's going to be there that It's not like
they pick a course that's not challenging. I mean, it's
the PGA Championship, But I don't know what the cut
line will be with that. If Tiger would make the cut,
that would be a victory for him just to be
able to play four rounds.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Yeah, paul If you look at the leaderboards, you see
all the names, and they always put the country or
the flag next to the person. I know who Xander
Schoffley is. I've watched it much. Every time I see
the American flag next to Xanderschofla'm like, no, that's a mistake.
He's clearly Dutch, yeah, or he's clearly from another country.
It's just it's one of those names that feels like
it's European.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
We talked about the schedule release. The Panthers are the
only NFL team that doesn't have a primetime game. Now,
I would argue with that because the Panthers do have
a standalone game Week ten. They'll be in Germany. That
game starts at nine thirty am Eastern. That technically is
that primetime in Germany. It's not here. But do the
(06:34):
Panthers are they a primetime game in Germany? Yes, Pauline.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Unfortunately, that would be three thirty pm, Oh Germany time.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
They don't even make primetime in Yermany.
Speaker 5 (06:48):
Yes, Ton, you could argue they shouldn't have any afternoon
games either.
Speaker 6 (06:53):
That's a little mean what happened today.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
They obviously have to play their schedule out, but it
proved to be a tea where we wouldn't miss them
if they weren't playing Sunday afternoon either.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Eight seven seven three DP show email undress DP at
Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. You know,
the hardcore fan cared about the schedule because you can
kind of map out your season. What games you're gonna
go to, you're gonna go on the road, when's the
bye week, you're gonna buy tickets. You know, that's when
you all of a sudden go, hey, my team is
(07:25):
playing in a warm weather climate in December. Yeah, let's go. Yes, Tom,
I did that.
Speaker 6 (07:31):
Week three, the Broncos are at Tampa.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
I was considering maybe going down to Florida week three,
and then week four they're at the Jets right here
in New Jersey. So that was my main reason for
checking out what was going on last night. Okay, I
could totally relate to that. I guess is what I'm saying,
thank you to mapping out the schedule.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Where am I going to go?
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Where?
Speaker 6 (07:48):
Where's there a nice one place to see a game?
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Nothing wrong with that. I would just be going to
go see your team, go to the Jets. Maybe just
go there then you don't have to fly down to tamp.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
You've been to a Jets game recently? Yeah, yeah, wearing
the opposing colors.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Do not do that. Not wear your Broncos colors in
there that idea.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
No, actually no, it's strange that you say that because
a few years back I went to a Bronco Jet
game and it was pouring rain. I thought the game
was a one o'clock game. It turned out it was
a four o'clock game. So I'm sitting in the parking lot.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
For several hours.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
Wearing my Bronco stuff, as was my son, and there
was people barbecuing and all their Jets regalia, and they
saw me look.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I guess we looked totally depressed.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
And they're knocked on our window and they offered us
some food, which I thought was.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Pretty amazing for Jet fans, knowing that we're wearing orange
and blue.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Off of your food like you were, like you were homeless.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
Yeah, were sitting there and it's like ten after twelve
for a four o'clock game, and like gate or whatever
in a parking lot.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Pouring rain, and you're not a tailgater.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
I'm not a big tailgate.
Speaker 5 (08:46):
It's just me and my son and it's four hours
before kickoff and where they're parking lot.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
How do you make that mistake?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
It's terrible.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Add in Chicago, Hi, Ed, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 7 (08:58):
Hey? Dan, I really appreciate you calling me back. Are
we ready to talk to Miami Dolphins Central time?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Let me see, we talked about this earlier in the
week that we were going to spend the final hour
on Thursday. Are you guys ready to talk Dolphins backfield
the entire round?
Speaker 8 (09:12):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yeah? Okay, all right, break it down. So okay, did
you did you want to offer anything?
Speaker 5 (09:18):
Ed?
Speaker 7 (09:19):
Yeah, Well, real quick, Crappensburg State, if you were to
become the head coach for the basketball team, are they
only going to shoots?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Yeah? Anyway, Marvin said that, Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 7 (09:29):
I think Mostard has the He's the guy with the
most experienced even though as Shane came on very strongly
last year on the on the depth chart. Currently Mostard
is still number one. I think they got to get
a more more plays out of the backfield circle routes,
out of the backfield screens, that type of thing. A
Shane Again home run threat guy can do a lot
(09:50):
of things third down back I think going into the season,
and then you have Jalen Wright and Jeff Wilson Junior,
who I don't really think are going to make an impact.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Thank you, Ed, You know what I was going to
spend the entire hour. I don't need to. Ed just
summed it up.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Yes, Paul, don't sleep on Jalen Wright, the fourth round
pick of the Dolphins out of Tennessee. He's a good
running back. He led the Tennessee with a thousand yards
rushing seven point four yards of carry.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Nice pick up Jeff Wilson Junior. By the way, North Texas,
Larry and Austin Hi. Larry wents on your mind today.
Speaker 9 (10:21):
Hey, Dan, Your discussion earlier today about parties and birthday
parties reminded me of a documentary Turner Classic Movies did
on Dean Martin. He wasn't a big fan of party
as well well know now, but his wife would have
parties all the time, and he would breef the gas
and then disappear upstairs to watch TV, and, according to
(10:44):
the documentary, on more than one occasion he would call police.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Report a loud party. Thank you, Larry. I'm not at
that point, you know, because when I want to go
to bed, I want to go to bed. My wife.
You know. One year we had a Christmas party and
the basement is packed, music is thumping, It is crazy,
(11:07):
and I try to sneak upstairs and my wife goes,
where are you going? I go bed and she goes, no,
You're not go back down there until everybody leaves. Three
hours later they finally left. I had a great time too. Yes, Mark,
(11:29):
are you having a big retirement party?
Speaker 6 (11:30):
No Christmas Eve slash retirement party?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Go No, No, We'll have a Christmas party and that'll
be it. But uh and that'll be everybody outside. We'll
have a barbecue. That's it. And no matter what the
weather is, we're doing. My wife goes, you know what
I'm thinking, how about for the Christmas party? Now she's
already planning the Christmas party. So Chad from Tragger comes up.
(11:56):
We cook, it's great. We you know, get a keg
Miller Lite. You know, we'll have our moonshine there. Food's awesome.
She goes, you know what I'm thinking, how about ax throwing?
They go, okay, for the kids instead of the pinata, Well,
we have the pinana, we have the grown up pinata,
(12:17):
and then we have the kids pinata. But she wants
to bring out some ax throwing experts. And you have
a van or some kind of vehicle and then you
go into it and you get to throw axes. And
I'm like, okay, I guess, like who's going to be
there watching to see who goes in? Like, I can't
(12:39):
have a seven year old going I want to throw
an axe. Paulie.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
Yeah, there's a couple of companies. There's a extreme entertainment there.
It's a mobile ax throwing company. There's a lot of
plays on words, extra extra, you better ask somebody. Yeah,
so yeah, there's mobile axe throwing. You can have them
come to your house. Sign a whole lot of waivers
and three a great.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Yes do invited guests have to stand there with like
this balloons to your left and right, and the act
professional act hits all the balloons instead of hitting you
in the head with the axe.
Speaker 6 (13:09):
That would probably ruin the party. If there was an accident.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
There, it would be an axe there you go serious acts.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
If you watch online, there's those axe throwing bars around
America and they're pretty well regulated. Those like little stalls
and you can't hit the person next to you. But
what happens is you get a couple of pops in
you and a guy gets a little too close. It's
the kickback. The axe does not make contact and stick
and it goes back and nails someone in the fore.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
I was thinking skeet shooting. I mean, how about that?
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Why not.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Can a little ball?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Uh? Jenna in Indiana? Hi, Jenna, what's on your mind?
Speaker 7 (13:47):
Ah?
Speaker 10 (13:48):
Yes?
Speaker 9 (13:48):
Hi five?
Speaker 11 (13:49):
Five first time, first time, long time and happy birthday
to you Dan.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Well, thank you, Jenna.
Speaker 11 (13:56):
I I am calling today to brag, I guess, as
well as give the shout out to my husband Ryan.
His worst nightmare came true on Sunday. I got a
hold in one on Mother's Day and he has never
gotten one, and he was always afraid I was going
to get one before him. I started golfing just about
(14:18):
eight years ago and he's been golfing all his life.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
He's fifty years old.
Speaker 11 (14:23):
He's been so sweet about it, but I know deep
down he is really pissed off.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Well, congratulations Jenna on your first hole in one and
you ruin somebody else's day in the process. Congratulations, thank you. Okay,
that's Jenna. Just be happy for someone else. Yeah, Todd, he's.
Speaker 5 (14:42):
Been so supportive. I think I'd go on national radio
and TV and rub it in down. Tell the Dan
Patrick Show what I did.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Yeah, stupid Ryany and such a baby Ryan. Yeah, be
happy for Jenna.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Man, I'm so lucky paul in it. There is a
lot of luck Paul and Illinois. Hi, Paul wents on
your mind?
Speaker 7 (15:01):
Hey Dan uh?
Speaker 12 (15:02):
First, like, I give a shout out to fellow Paul
and SIU alum polypaps.
Speaker 9 (15:08):
I got a question for Paulie.
Speaker 12 (15:09):
I'd like to know what bars he used to frequent
when he was in Carbondale, and I got it figured
out why Doug Gottlieb took that job at UW Green Bay.
He finally wanted to crack a top ten list.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
Oh, because here's high as the tenth coach hired. There
is that the top ten list?
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Oh? Oh it is?
Speaker 6 (15:31):
I think he was the tenth all time higher by
the but that school.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Wow, that's okay.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
I think that's what he meant.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Okay, all right, well, thank you, Paul. All right, let
me take a break Dan Orlovsky for the motherships going
to John's. You know, I think the whole Dolphins we
should have gone with the Dolphins backfield. I should have
just done the final hour on the Dolphins backfield.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
You can ask Dan, we could break down the Dolphins
backfield with him exclusively. If you were a quarterback and
you had the Dolphins backfield, would you want.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
To see I need some rounds out of the backfield,
you know. I gotta be able to have somebody who
can pick up the blind side blitz.
Speaker 6 (16:06):
Yes, what bars did Paul go to in Carbondale? I'm
just waiting here.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
No, nobody's really waiting for that. I can't all of them,
equal opportunity.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Everyone, all of them. Yeah, Okay, I'm gonna take a break.
We're gonna rally, We're gonna rebound, and we're gonna do Come.
Speaker 6 (16:20):
On, Let's come on Keith bers next, come.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
On, Fires take a break back after this Dan Patrick show.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
He's the popular analyst on the Mothership. He's Danie Rolovski,
former NFL quarterback, and you can see him Monday through
Friday on NFL Live. They start at for Eastern. Help
me understand the allure of the New York Giants on
Hard Knocks off season, Well, I think at.
Speaker 10 (17:30):
One it's their one hundred year anniversary, so I'm sure
that's got a relative attachment to the NFL, the history
of the organization, So like that's the tree top I
think the initial just as the everyday fan, how serious
were they about drafting a quarterback at number six. We're
going to find out how real that was, you know,
(17:50):
And maybe some of their I guess, internal feelings about
Daniel Jones instead of what necessarily gets shared up in
public through the media, how much they loved the elite
neighbors in comparison to like the rome O Doomsay conversation,
because I had heard sometimes like maybe they were gonna
take rome Oh Doomsay because melite neighbors lsu objh.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
So I think that a little bit.
Speaker 10 (18:16):
More of why Wink Martindale isn't there, you know, maybe
that relationship because that defense really started to become a
difference maker at the end of last year and you know,
new defensive coordinator instead of weak Martindale, So maybe a
little bit of that. And Brian Dable went from oh
my gosh, coach of the year, this guy's completely changed
the culture to now, hey, if he doesn't win, we're
(18:37):
gonna fire them, which I always find crazy. And then
probably like, how how serious were they into keeping Saquon
Barkley And was there any regret from the year before
of not paying site Saquon and instead of paying Daniel
Jones type of thing.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Give me the team or teams that your opinion changed
after the schedule was released.
Speaker 10 (19:02):
Okay, So I think Miami's final six games, and I
felt like Miami would be a team that would be
very different in back in November December than they would
at the start of the season just because of the
injuries that they sustained last year. Jalen Phillips would be
coming back, Bradley Chubb would be coming back more than likely,
and so I thought like, hey, if they could get
(19:25):
you know, hang around early on and then somewhat of
a favorable schedule on the back end, at least hypothetically,
they got a chance to continue to be into that
playoff conversation. Their final six games are absolutely brutal. I
think five of the six games will be more than
likely playoff teams, and I'm pretty sure three of those
(19:46):
six games are on the road in cold weather. I
think they go who Green Bay Thanksgiving the second to
the last or third last week of the season. They
go on the road to Cleveland and then on the
road to New York Jets to the New York Jets,
And so I felt really good about Miami because I
honestly believe they could weather the storm. They still might,
but those final six games are absolutely brutal. I think
(20:09):
Houston's schedule is favorable just because it doesn't feel like
there's that you know when you're finding Like for me, Dan,
I'm always looking at these schedules to sit there and go, Okay,
is there a stretch where you feel, if they're playing well,
they can get hot?
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Like is there a three, four, five game stretch where
you go win every one of them? Type things?
Speaker 10 (20:29):
And I don't think that there's an overwhelming three or
four game stretch in houston schedule where you sit there
and go, whooh, that is just you could be staring
zero four in the face type of thing. So I
felt really good about Houston, you know, in general, but
seeing their schedule. In the same with Seattle, I think
seattle schedule lends itself to have a lot of success
(20:51):
for a football team that is a little bit unknown.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
I've been talking about the Steelers with that stretch where
they have eight games, six are going to be in
the division, and then they pop out to play the
Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 10 (21:03):
Is that the back is that the back Then there's
two yes, yes, that one. When we were doing the
reveal last night in Na Gandhi Kevin, we went through
the schedule, looked at a little bit and then he
was like, wait guys, and we had to bring it
back up. That final seven or eight game stretch is
absolutely brutal. You then like you could sit there and go,
(21:24):
they could lose all seven just because of how good
that schedule stretch is.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Well, they're going to be playing eight games, six are
in division and then they play the Eagles and the Chiefs,
so you could they could conceivably lose all of those games.
And that's why they're over under his eight and a
half wins this year, even with an upgrade at quarterback
with Russ.
Speaker 8 (21:47):
Yeah. Yeah, that was something that jumped out last night.
Speaker 10 (21:50):
Was because the division is going to be now a
big part of this whole conversation when it comes we
have this when it comes to the AFC North, them
and I would think the NFC North are the two
best divisions, the two deepest divisions within the NFL, and
Cleveland has this talented or roster maybe in the NFL,
(22:11):
but certainly in that division. We have no idea if
Deshaun Watson can play at a high level week in
a week out anymore, we just don't. So as much
as we love and I think if Jamis had to
go play, Jamis could play good football.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
But that's not as daunting of a Hey, you got
to play them late again in the year. If Deshaun's
not playing at.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
High level, Yeah, but why don't we know that what
to expect out of Deshaun Watson?
Speaker 14 (22:35):
Now?
Speaker 10 (22:36):
I think the last time we saw him play at
a high level consistently was two thousand and twenty because
he sat out twenty one. He didn't play a ton
in twenty two, right, because the suspension and then the
injury last year. Now, that second half against Baltimore, when
that injury happened, there were shades of it. There were
(22:58):
signs of him looking like vintage Deshaun Watson did for
that three or four year stretch of Houston.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
But I mean, Dan, we're going to go on almost
four years or at least three years of.
Speaker 10 (23:09):
Him playing high end football consistently over the course of
a couple of months.
Speaker 8 (23:15):
So that's why we just don't know.
Speaker 10 (23:16):
And love, I love Joe Burrow, I've been a fan
of Joe Burrow since I saw him be the baddest
person on the planet in the National Title Game.
Speaker 8 (23:24):
He's got to stay healthy.
Speaker 10 (23:25):
And there's a little bit of that question mark attached
to Joe now as well.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I'm talking to Dan Orlovsky the Mothership NFL live Monday
through Friday. If you want to stay tuned in with
the NFL, it's must see TV. That's it for Eastern
every day, Monday through Friday. I'm looking at the Chiefs
and I wondered, now, I also checked Taylor Swift concert
schedule and she was going to be in Canada, and
(23:52):
a listener even asked, you know, did I think that
the NFL would maybe try to orchestrate a game where
the Chiefs would be close by? So you have Taylor Swift?
And I said, well, check when she's in Toronto and
check when the Chiefs are in Buffalo come on same week,
four o'clock game. Do you think that the NFL did that.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
I don't think that's I don't think that's coincidence.
Speaker 10 (24:24):
One thing I have learned, and you have been around
this league and the way it covers the you know,
and it brings it to the fans longer than us.
They are as smart as they can possibly be, and
that is not coincidence. I also don't think there is
anything wrong with it. I think it's highly intelligent. I
(24:45):
think what she has brought to the NFL is nothing
but positive, and I do not believe that to be
a coincidence. I think that's unbelievable by you as well.
Did you say that before the schedule release?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I said, check to see when the Chiefs play Buffalo
and where she is in Canada, and then it turned
out it's the same week, and I go, Okay, that's
not a coincidence, not at all, not a coincidence. Okay,
we have a bet. I have a bet with Fritzy
Wedding Cake to the Face that Taylor Swift and Travis
Kelsey will get engaged this season.
Speaker 8 (25:20):
I'm taking whatever I can on the.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Yes, okay, so you're with me. Todd said no because
he doesn't love love you and I love loves message.
Speaker 8 (25:29):
Yes, yes, yeah, No, No, hopeless romantic for him. He's
not a rom common type of guy.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
No, No, he's not. No.
Speaker 8 (25:35):
I mean I cried when I watched Like the New.
Speaker 10 (25:40):
I'm a movie crier, so even like, like some of
the new movies that have been remade that I know
the endings, I'm gonna cry at them. So I'm like,
I'm wired emotionally anyway. But I'm saying, yes, I'm that.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
You ever cried during a football game when you were playing?
Oh gosh, yes, yeah, I mean during the game. Oh absolutely, Yeah,
Yeah I've cried. I mean the first I'll give you
some cry football stories, Dbate. First time I ever played football,
I was playing quarterback. I was nine years old.
Speaker 10 (26:11):
I went dropped back to pass on my first pass
in practice, I got slapped in the arm like this.
Speaker 8 (26:18):
I cried like a baby.
Speaker 10 (26:19):
I ran to the parking lot, and I wanted to
never play football again.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Thank God that my father didn't allow me to.
Speaker 10 (26:27):
Definitely cried during college football game, just in some pain moments.
Speaker 8 (26:31):
I cried against the Vikings, not for running out of
the end zone, but for a hit that I took
in a game that made me like tear up. I cried.
I cried definitely pregame right after Sandy Hook.
Speaker 10 (26:42):
Not to get morbid in a like a laughing manner,
but yeah, I've definitely cried in multiple multi I'm a crier, though, dude. Like,
my daughter made a soccer team last night, and when
she told me the news, I cried.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
So I cried, oh, I'm right there with you. Yeah,
like my kids will be. You know, we went to
see Book of Mormon on Broadway. It's a comedy. I
cried at intermission. I'm crying. My kids go, what are
you crying about? I go, I have no idea, but
you know what gets me every time?
Speaker 10 (27:15):
I'm sure you have gone down to disney World and
seeing the lights and fireworks show on Magic Kingdom.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
You know when they do that.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
I cried to yep, I did. My kids were little,
and I'm thinking I never got this experience. My parents
drove us to Disneyland. We didn't go into Disneyland, but
that was our vacation. I got my kids out there,
and you know, they got all the fireworks and all
the you know, Goofy and Pluto and Donald Dunck, and
(27:47):
I'm going, oh my god, how lucky are these kids? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (27:52):
Every time?
Speaker 2 (27:52):
All right, is there any reason to doubt the Chiefs?
Speaker 8 (27:57):
Of course?
Speaker 10 (27:58):
I think number one, just coming off of last night,
the start of their season obviously is very difficult, and
the finish of their season is very difficult. Their first
two games are gonna be big deals obviously Baltimore Cincinnati,
and I don't exactly remember what their final four games
are off the top of my head from last night,
but their final four games are challenging.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
We have no idea what's gonna.
Speaker 10 (28:20):
Happen with Rashie Rice, you know. And when I said
this last night, I said, well, we don't know, you know,
how long, you know, and Chefty cut me off and
he's like expected Rashie.
Speaker 8 (28:32):
Rice to not be there for part of the season,
you know.
Speaker 10 (28:36):
So it's like, Okay, Cheffie's saying that, so you know,
you don't know how long Rashie Rice isn't gonna be there.
And Rashie Rice became a really big deal for them
last year. He was their one B, not their number two,
their one B. He we would be part of blocking
and to get out in some of their pass routes.
I understand it's Patrick, I understand it's Andy Reid, but
he was a really big part of what they really
(28:58):
became a possession guy for them. That's not who Xavier
Worthy is, That's not who Hollywood Brown is. And so
to not have that is certainly there that gives pause.
And we don't know who's going to be playing left tackle,
so that certainly allows pause. Lageriously needs the best man
and man cover corner in the NFL. Certainly in the conversation,
not there anymore. So I'm not sitting here saying they're
(29:20):
not going to get in or they're not the Super
Bowl favorites. Absolutely, but there is no reason and realistic
and real pause to see, Well, let's see what they
look like, or how long he's out or how great
that defense is without that lockdown cover corner.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Well, the Chiefs their last game is at Denver, so
they may catch a break at the end of the season.
And you know what, speaking of the Broncos, like Sean
Payton's got a hit on this quarterback here. Yeah, I
mean this is really important. I don't know what you
think of bow Nicks, but I mean they're over unders
five and a half wins this year. He's got one
more year. It feels like before all of a sudden,
(29:58):
it gets a little bit warmer there.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (30:01):
Absolutely, I would start bow next week one, and that's
a daunting thing because Denver's on the road in Seattle.
And then week three they played Tampa Bay and then
Week four they played the New York Jets. So if
this was any other rookie quarterback, if we were talking
about maybe even like a player like a Drake May who,
while he's played a ton of college snaps, has got
(30:22):
to you know, he's got the game that he needs
to work on, the reason why I say play week
number one, even though it's Mike McDonald new head coach
and all these crazy blitzes bo Knicks one has sixty
one career starts, he has played and seen a ton
of college football. Number two he's got thick skin. Now
you know he went highly touted Auburn. Oh you can't play,
(30:46):
you stink, leave the SEC. You can't play anymore. Go
So like the weathering, the dealing with failure, because I
do think it's going to be a bumpy first month
because of those teams, because you're playing Seattle crazy bitzer
is Tampa Bay crazy blitzes, and the Jets obvious suffocating.
Speaker 8 (31:01):
But I think Sean Bayin's got to start.
Speaker 10 (31:03):
Him if he even looks remotely close to being capable
of operating their offense. And that first month has got
to be this weather weather, the storm, learning experience, beat
tough skin, and hopefully he starts to play his best
football as they get into October.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
What do you expect out of the Chargers first year?
Speaker 10 (31:22):
Yeah, I have the expectation that they'll absolutely play meaningful
football games in December. I think Hardball's too good of
a coach. I think their offensive line is going to
play too much in control of football games. Just stylistically,
I think their tight ends will be a much bigger
part of their their football team pass game wise than
(31:44):
people believe. I love the addition of Lad McConkie. You know,
Quenton Johnson's got to take a step forward. I think
the defense will play a little bit more consistent than
it did Brandon Staley. So I'm not giving them the
division and I'm not giving them a playoff spot, but
I am saying they'll be playing meaningful football games in December.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
And I love what Harball is doing. And I've been
saying this for years that somebody is going to have
a different approach and not going to be throwing the
ball forty times. That he wanted to have an offensive
line just like he did at San Diego, Stanford, San Francisco, Michigan,
and that's what he's going to do. He could have
taken a wide receiver, could have taken a tight end,
(32:23):
and all along I kept thinking, he just going to
build that offensive line again, yep.
Speaker 10 (32:28):
And I'll always go back to the quote he shared
this offseason that and it's what I've believed for a
long time and try to articulate. He just did it
better when he said every position is dependent upon the
offensive line. The offensive line is dependent on no one
and that you know, I've always said, like, if you've
got a great offensive line, the skiel players are better
(32:49):
than they actually are. And the same with the quarterback.
But if if you have a great quarterback, it doesn't
you know, the offensive line being poor negatively affects him.
So now I kind of had that same thought the
way he was going to kind of build that football team.
Speaker 8 (33:02):
And I just think that they it's cyclical.
Speaker 10 (33:05):
They you know, for two years, I have felt that
the offensive line was gonna or the NFL. For two years,
the NFL was going to trend towards going back to
early two thousands football, and that was going to be
a little bit more focus on shrinking down formations, let's
pound the football bigger linebacker is going to be needed,
run stopping, defensive tackles. We got to control the line
(33:27):
of scrimmage. And it feels like, you know, thirty five
percent of the league is at that point right now.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Anybody have more pressure on them this year than Dak Prescott.
Speaker 10 (33:43):
I mean Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. I
mean that was a really big deal last year. We
just not talked about it this much this year. But
I think everybody within the New York Jets and Aaron
Rodgers for sure. I mean it's because the expectations are
the same as last year, Like you got to win
a Super Bowl. It's the best roster that Rogers has
been on in a decade when it comes to real talent.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
And so you know, Dan, I would.
Speaker 10 (34:08):
Have thought, yes about Dak Prescott and then Marcus. Yesterday
we were on this, you know, the schedule release showing
Marcus like that ain't got no.
Speaker 8 (34:16):
Pressure on him, and I pushed back and I was like,
you go out of your mind.
Speaker 6 (34:19):
He's like her.
Speaker 10 (34:20):
Cousins just got one hundred guaranteed in one hundred and
sixty million dollar contract. If Dak hit the open market
right now, he's gonna get two hundred, and I don't
disagree with them.
Speaker 8 (34:30):
Jared Goff has got a buck seventy.
Speaker 10 (34:32):
Now, Jared Goff's going to Super Bowl an NMC title game,
but he just got a buck seventy. And because of
who Dak is and you know the consistent performance that.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
He does bring more often than not.
Speaker 10 (34:44):
Yeah, I while there's like the pressure to okay last
year your contract, Dak Prescott is going to get a
good jillion dollars next offseason, either from the Cowboys or
someone else.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Great stuff as always, Thank you, Dan, Thanks boss. That's
Dan Orlomski ESPN and list part of NFL Live and
you can watch you Monday through Friday at four eastern.
Speaker 6 (35:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
I thought about that with Dak Prescott, that you know
he's going into this contract year. The expectations are always
get to the playoffs, can you win another super Bowl?
And his day is saying so if you don't like,
you're still going to get paid. I didn't think of
it that way. And then as far as Aaron Rodgers, yeah,
I understand, well the expectation level is tempered a little
(35:26):
bit because of what happened with Rogers, but still Jets fans,
they're going to expect they're going to the playoffs, they're
going to play in big games. Maybe they're going to
play in a super Bowl. But Dallas fans they feel
the same way. All Right, we'll take a break. Last
