Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio. Happy New Year, gangs all here ready to go.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Final hour, we'll talk to the great Steve Young, Hall
of Famer and the great college football analyst Gary Danielson
calling games for thirty six years. We'll talk to Gary.
Coming up, we'll have a new poll question for the
final hour of the program. Good morning, if you're watching

(00:27):
including iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio over four hundred cities that
carry this award nominated program if you're just joining us.
The Browns will need a new head coach. Kevin Stefanski
has been fired. The Cincinnati Bengals announced that they were
not firing anybody still waiting to see what happens in
a couple of spots, including the Miami Dolphins and John
(00:50):
Harball is at a tenuous situation with Baltimore the Raiders
with Pete Carroll feels like that's obvious that they will
move on from him, and trying to think if we
had Albert Breer, the Monday Morning quarterback on he thought
that Arizona might keep Jonathan Gannon. But it feels like
there's a few things that are you know, there's openings,
(01:12):
potential openings, but then you also have to go, well,
who are we bringing in, like who is better than
the person that we have And maybe that's what the
Bengals thought, or they want to be fair, they want
to you know, have a healthy roster there. I don't
know if John Harball is going to stay, what happens
to Mike Tomlin. If they bow out in the first round.
They're an underdog. By the way, Texans are favored by
(01:34):
three and a half at the Steelers. The Rams are
favored by nine and a half in Carolina. Packers on
the road favored by one and a half, Bills one
and a half against the Jags, the Niners getting three
and a half against the Eagles, and the Chargers getting
three and a half. Eight seven seven three DP show
college football lines Miami against Ole Miss. Miami is a
(01:55):
three and a half point favorite. Oregon is getting four
against Indiana. As we make the segue to Gary Danielson,
longtime CBS college football analyst, Final broadcast New Year's Eve
with Arizona State and Duke former NFL quarterback as well.
Does it feel like you're retired?
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Not really, because I usually have, you know, these three
or four or five months off before I get going. However,
and it was a year long, really nice schedule in
fact that every game we did, I was treated royally,
saluted heart from everybody I've ever known every week basically,
(02:37):
and I know our crew in the CBS family went
out of their way to make it a great finish
for me.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
The Army Navy game, you know that brings out the
best in you. What is it about that game?
Speaker 3 (02:53):
I guess in a world that's so transactional for everybody,
including me, When I was, you know, working my way
and trying to make the NFL, I mean, I was
just so focused on trying to make that league that
I grew up wanting to do. These are all players
that have dedicated their life to something more than just
themselves and their careers. They dedicated their lives to their country.
(03:18):
But in contrast and along with that, they cared so
much about football and everybody involved in that game because
of that, cared so much about making that presentation special
for them, and the game seemed to always deliver. You know,
When I first started doing it. It was the first
(03:40):
year it was a standalone game, and I think the.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Country kind of learned to love that game.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I don't know how much longer it's going to be there,
but I feel such when I did those games, an
added sense of responsibility to send those guys off because
they loved the game so much.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Did the College Football Playoff Committee get it right?
Speaker 5 (04:00):
I think so.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I mean seid arguing who was the fourth or fifth
team or the you know, who's the tenth, eleventh, twelve,
thirteenth team.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
As they got bigger, Dan, I think you can agree
with this.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
They're becoming a thinner and thinner difference between who could
be in the playoffs or not. Usually, when there was
two teams, it was pretty easy, maybe one other team.
When there were four teams, it usually was what conference
doesn't get their champion involved? And now it was you know,
whether a game in August mattered to determine who played
(04:34):
in January or the end of December. So I think
for the most part, everybody involved took it seriously.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
I do think it could be improved. Everything could be improved.
I think the.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Home field advantage I know talking to a lot of
coaches off the record, felt that would be better to
play a home game in the first round then get
a buy and I think that's proven out. I thought
Ohio State was a little flat in their game. So
not taking anything away from everybody, but for the most part,
you know, people like to watch games of consequence. You know,
(05:06):
That's what I started off doing in my whole broadcasting career,
ended up the last twenty at CBS. But it felt
like every Saturday in the SEC for eighteen years, we
were the center of attention and people like to watch
games like that.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah, I just wonder where we're going because you know,
we're talking March Madness. Where we want to well not me,
but it feels like they want to expand there's more
money there. Even with college football, we haven't got to sixteen.
We haven't been at twelve very long. Now we're talking sixteen,
which will probably happen next year. Then they're going to
(05:41):
extrapolate and go, well, why don't we go to twenty four? Like,
I just don't know what the number is. I remember
when March Madness was thirty two teams Gary, right, we
never stop, we never you know, the NFL was going
to move to eighteen games. This is what we do.
So I wonder college football, where do you see us
in five years?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I think there will at least be sixteen teams, and
it could be bigger than that, where eight teams get
a buy and they include more. I don't know exactly
how it'll be, but here's what I feel overall about this.
Freedom and capitalism have a great way of figuring things out, okay,
and it ends up going to the perfect spot, the
(06:24):
perfect price point. And you know, it used to be
unless you had a major conglomate around you.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
You know, when you started was through ESPN.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
And now guys like you or Pat McAfee or people
starting podcasts, they have the freedom to go out there
and build their own brand and do what they have
to do. And I thought college football kind of got
stuck where all the great players were gravitating to eight, ten,
twelve schools. I remember I did a seminar at CBS
maybe four or five years ago, and they asked us
(06:55):
to pick our top ten going into twenty twenty nineteen
or something like that, and I went and sought out.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
The Old Life magazine when they had their pre or
Sports Illustrated preseason top ten from the year I graduated
from high school, and eight of the ten teams were
the exact same.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Ten teams that were preseason this year, and I put
it up as my top ten, and there was a
team that didn't belong.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
And what do you do when I go, oh, I'm sorry,
I put the wrong one up. I think it's better now.
Is it perfect?
Speaker 2 (07:26):
No?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
But here's another thing, because there's more money in it. Basically,
more of these athletes are training harder, they're getting individual teachers,
they're going out and having seven on seven leagues, and
there's just a lot more players that were stuck in
(07:49):
Division two or in the MAC that are now getting
their chance to go to these major colleges that we
watch on TV.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
They're not all bad football players. So me and Trinidad Chambliss,
great example. My buddy covered him in high school football
when he was in the state championship and said he
was good but not ready for Michigan. Well he went
to Ferris but in a couple more years and look
where he is now. So I just feel there's more
opportunity and I think it's better than having Georgia Texas
(08:19):
Ohio State having three good quarterbacks and six goods offensive
tackles that those guys spread out, So I don't think
there's that much bad about it.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Longtime CBS college football analyst Gary Danielson joining US can
this year's Hoosiers supplant the movie Hoosiers the basketball team
is a better story.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Whoa, whoa. That's a great question.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
And I just saw that Bobby Plump was just at
the Butler game eighty nine years old. I don't know
if he saw that little clip of him, you know,
and he looked like he could still shoot.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
To me, the way he was waving his hand around,
that would be tougher.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
I think doing a story about six people and a
coach is harder than doing it, you know, for as
many as there.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
But hey, listen, we've all.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
I mean, I'm a Purdue guy, you know, and I
see IU fans everywhere, and.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
I'm a bit.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Jealous and I'm a bit in awe at the same
time that, you know, I couldn't have that storyline when
I was playing, because it is And I see the
fans and they're so proud, and they got their IU
jerseys on their hats, and I kid them a little
bit by selling them that this would be basketball jerseys
and basketball hats right now.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
But no, they are all in and they're really, really
a good football team. Dan.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
I turned on their tape to do the Oregon game
when they played at Oregon, and I'm just like, they
were considered a fraud from twenty to twenty four of
their finish and I thought it would have been hard
for anybody to go into Ohio State or go into
Notre Dame and beat them. And the more you watch
(09:57):
those games, they weren't frauds, but they weren't ready for
the big time stage yet. And I just thought they
were focused this year and they when I put on
the tape and watched the different layers, how the defensive
linemen worked for the linebreckers, the three linebreckers they have,
I mean, it's like watching the old Pittsburgh Steelers with
(10:19):
Lambert and you know those guys. I mean, they're really
really good football players, and they got a special quarterback
and a coach that knows how to lead them. I
don't listen to all four teams could easily win these
games and win the championship, but I know Oregon will
be very focused for this football game. When Indiana beat them,
(10:40):
last time in Oregon, which is a tough place to play.
Oregon was just coming off of their celebration for beating
Penn State, and honestly, when we did our interviews, I
was struck about that. They really couldn't get off the
Penn State story.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
They were so.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Proud of going there winning with one hundred and ten thousand,
and they seemed to not take eye you serious.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Think they're going to take him serious for this game.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Best college player you ever saw, I.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Would have to say Cam Newton to tell you, and
I've seen a bunch of great ones. I thought he
had a team that might have won four or.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Five games without him, and he led him in the
sec he was. I knew of him when he was
at Florida and when he left.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I've seen a bunch of them that were great, no
doubt about it. But if I had to pick.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
One in one season, what he did, I thought Cam
was amazing in that year. I think the highest NIL player,
if they were in today's world, for his four years.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
Would have been Tim Tebow.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
He broke out my first year in two thousand and six,
won the Heisman and seven and stayed all four years.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
I think he could have made a lot of money
if you have been in the game today.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Can college football have a commissioner?
Speaker 4 (11:58):
It's a great question, and I don't no. It's funny.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I have a really good friend that runs a managing
partner for a big law firm all over the state
of Florida, and he's a big college football fan, And
I said, Mike, you could take your three smartest lawyers
and bring three or four of the best football college
football minds into a room, and I think you'd have
a tough time figuring out how to put someone in
(12:21):
charge with all the different and all the way people have.
What's important to the Big ten or the Big twelve
is not important. You know, everybody has their own dynamics
of what will make this thing go. And to make
it fair like the NFL, where you know things go,
then the Big ten and the SEC would have to
(12:43):
seed a lot of power and I don't know if
they're willing to do that.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Thank you for caring, appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
I would like to say that you know, our.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Our end was not exactly the way we've planned it, okay,
and a lot of people put a lot of work
into it, just like any person I was very focused
on what I wanted to say at the end, and
we got squished a little bit in time, and it
was really nobody's fault, probably me.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
I was the last one that had the mic, you know,
and I could have got it, but.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
It was really what I just wanted to compose myself
and think my families, you know, my football families, the
teams that I was on, you know, my Purdue family,
my Lion family, my Browns family, my ABC ESPN family.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I did not thank them.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
There's thirty forty fifty people that I could have thanked
in those sixteen years, and of course my CBS family.
And I also wanted to tell Charles Davis, who's taking
my spot, that this crew turned head over heels for
make my last year great and that last day great,
and that Todd's blacklich sat in the sea before me.
(14:01):
I've been lucky enough for twenty years, and these people
will all do the same work for you.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Good luck, Charles is a great seat to have.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
But it takes too long, though, Yeah, I was, I
was going to cut you off. Gary, you were going
too long.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
You know what they do to a quarterback if you
rush them, They throw interceptions, and I threw an interception.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Good luck in whatever's next. But thank you, thank you.
We appreciate it. Gary, Thanks thanks for having Gary Danielson,
longtime CBS college football anaist. It's probably the best compliment.
And I hope he took it that way, that he
cared when I listened to a game, when I watched
a game, he cared. And you know, it's not just
the Army Navy game that that's an easy one to
(14:41):
get invested in. Not every game is a great game,
but it's the people who are doing the games that
they care about those games. Well, take a break. Steve
Young will join us next. We'll try to sneak in

Final hour of the program. He might be a Hall
of Famer, he might be one of the best NFL
analysts in America, but he was not able to beat
Jaye Chandler and Derry Ann in the high School Champion
(16:00):
Chip game. Steve Young joining us on the program.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
I Steve beautiful, Dan, thank you. Yeah. Yeah. In fact,
all Greenwich High School, all those passing records of my brothers,
So you had to add a little bit more ignoomy,
Is that right? Whatever what happened?
Speaker 2 (16:22):
I mean, Jade Chandler went out to Princeton notable career
in finance.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
You know, Dan, it's a question that I wasn't ready for.
I think that uh uh the blue waves of dry
Ann uh just aut colastics that day. I don't know
what else to say.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I don't know which which town is Richer, Greenwich or Darienne.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
Look, I told you a thousand times I grew up
in the mean streets of Gretwich. I battled my way
out of there. Do not try to change my narrative.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Uh, you had tattered vineyard vine shirts, didn't you like? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:09):
People, you know I played with You know, I played
a lot of guys you know, from all over the
country and they where are you from? Frenwich, Connectic? What's
that like?
Speaker 7 (17:16):
Man?
Speaker 5 (17:16):
It's tough. I try to play it up because if
they ever found out.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
All right, Uh, let's handicap this. If you had to
pick between well, I'm gon leave the Niners out of this,
Seahawks and Rams. They have the two best odds to
win the Super Bowl. Who would you pick right now?
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Well, watching the Seahawks at the day, I think just momentous.
I don't know just how they're playing right the second. Uh,
I feel like the Seahawks were built, uh defensively to
just I mean they're just a vicious and then the
way they're running the football and bad weather and as
(17:56):
long as it look to me, as long as Damn
doesn't turn it over, which has been a huge problem.
This year, They're going to be just fine. I mean,
I'd be a heck of a game right now. I'm
going to be honest with you. But and I look,
Matthew Stafford is abusing the system today. I mean we
talked about this before he grew up in a more
stisticated era. He is just everybody's open in his mind,
(18:18):
you know, like everything's just and then uh, you know
who is doing his I mean it's just there's that'd
be a great game, and uh it's unfortunate I won't
be a super Bowl because of course they're both the NFC.
But right now both are playing really well.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I did think about this with Miles Garrett setting the
single season sack record of LT and Reggie White are
probably considered the two greatest defensive players of all time.
Would you would you say that?
Speaker 5 (18:47):
I would say yes to that, and I would say
Reggie was unique. Both of them were unique. But Reggie is.
You had to meet Reggie to know that he was
six six three. His all court said two ninety, which
tells me that he was four hundred. Like, you know,
you didn't hear you know, you're a liar, Uh, but
(19:08):
he was all of it like he was. He was
he shouldn't play quarterback. I mean, he's just that great
of an athlete. Uh, not take any away from LT,
but you had to you had to meet Reggie, you
had to play against him. You had to hear him,
you know, screaming as he like he snapped the balls
at hood and you know, you hear him and here
he comes, he's he's throwing people out of the way
(19:30):
and then there you know, there he was.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
So is he the greatest defensive player of all time?
Like people want to put Miles Garrett in that conversation,
and I want to be fair to Miles as well,
but Reggie to me was and me and Joe Green
was probably in there as well. I know that was
before you were playing, but l LT changed the game, ye.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
I mean LT was all of that, so doing limon. Look,
we can talk about LT for five minutes if you
want too as well. But I saw Reggie so much,
you know, just he was just so he's just one
of a kind. And I'm LT was as well. But yeah,
Miles is. Look, the problem with Miles is he plays
with the Cleveland Browns and no one gets to really
appreciate how singular he is, and especially in this time
(20:17):
of year. I mean, you know, Reggie and l team
made a lot of their money and a lot of
their reputation in January February. You know that just that's
that's the game, right, that's where you really do make reputation.
So that's what's uh, you know, I even talking about Miles. Look,
I want to see him play next week, you know
what I mean? I want to see him. Uh when
(20:38):
when you know, just it's all on the line and
there he is, you know, so that's the only different.
It feels like.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
How much do you hear these guys? You said you
could hear Reggie White, But like I'm thinking you got
a tunnel vision and tunnel hearing, but there were certain
guys you could hear.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
Nah, yeah, it's pretty You're right, it's like a lot
of White. No, he's in behind you. You know, like
even even the crowd feels like it's just a mind
you know, it's a faceless or kind of thing. Like
I just to me, you're right, but Reggie was you
need because look all weeklong, Wednesday morning, he's like, Okay,
(21:18):
we play the Packers, we play the Eagles, and uh, Reggie,
wife of Tennessee six six three forty and uh, yeah,
you can't lock them, and what are we gonna do? Yeah,
well the six guys, it will just surround him, you know,
and then what about the others. Don't worry about these,
We just take Reggie. So then you talk about it
all week, right, and the linemen are all getting fired
up and then uh and so because of that, he
(21:39):
was just he was always focused on and then he
he was he's screened, but he had a void like
I can't even make a voice like his, Like you
can't go that deep, you know, see I, you know,
And so you could hear him screaming, and then you
could hear him coming. Then he was there, and uh,
you know, I always make fun of it, but it
(22:00):
is kind of funny, like you drought back and you're like, oh,
here we go. You know. It was great. He was
He was a friend. He we didn't see each other
very often. He had a chance to talk to a
great friends. When we come out of college together, my
dad helped him find an agent and we were kind
of got very close. And so all the time we played,
(22:21):
he didn't give me an inch. He was coming for it.
But then as soon as he got me, hold me
fall back and he's like, Steve, how you doing that?
I'm like, I'm not so right now? Parents here tonight,
I'm like, right, Chie, i don't want to talk to
you right now.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
We're talking to the Hall of Famer Steve Young. The
Raiders have just fired Pete Carrol. What did they expect?
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Well, Pete, you know, listen, pizza organized guy. Pete is inspired.
You know, he's his inspiration. He I think you in
today's game, you have you look at the playoffs. It
is Sean Payton, Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan and Andy Reid
(23:09):
and any from the fruit of those coaching trees is
dominating the NFL today offensively, And you know, offensively is
the game they keep changing the rules against. Defense. Defense
is important, there's no question. I mean, there's some great
defense out there despite it all, but the game is
dominated by innovative, young offensive minds. And so, you know,
(23:30):
I love Pete. He's one of my favorite guy's favorite coaches.
And I don't think I still think he could do it,
but he's got to get that help around him that
responds to what's happening right now. Today and then you
have the talent and you have no Look, we keep
always saved Dan. There's equity owners in the NFL. They're
untouchable because they're the equity owners, like you can't they're
(23:54):
they're the most hot fireable people in the in America
are the quarterback number one, the coach number two, and
the general managed number three. And the guy that cannot
be fired is the guy that's the most impactful is
the owner. And I think, uh, you know, you got
to get that straightened out too, because you keep going
(24:15):
around to car Look at the Jets, look at the
teams that just keep going around in a carousel failure.
They have to they have to look at themselves.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
At some point, the Browns fired Kevin Stefanski. I'm wondering,
if you're a coach, how you're going into a situation
where do you know if you have a quarterback, did
you get enough of a sample size with Shadoor Sanders
where you're not you're not going to take the job
because of shoud Or, But are you walking into a
situation where you might be playing Shood or Sanders.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Yeah, And that's you know, it's tough right now because
it's a developmental project, and he is a project and
he's got a lot of talent. So and you don't
know how projects are always going to turn out. Let's
look at Drake May. They took that's a project, but
that's not a project anymore and h and so that's
the tough spot. Like I just said, if you're a
young innovative mind coming from one of those coaching trees
(25:07):
that's figured it out, it's felt that it's seen it,
and then you have somebody who can play. Look what
happened in Chicago, Look what happened in Jacksonville, Look what
happened even in Carolina a little bit. I mean it's
better than it was. You're in a pretty good spot.
But you know, if you've got someone new that is unproven,
you really don't have a chance unless you have look
(25:29):
at the playoffs again, look with this weekend and look
at the guys that are leading it and the dynamic
and should or has that dynamic play in But he's
gonna need he needs innovative minds to come teach him
and take out the full measure of who he is.
Right now, we just don't know what that is.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Seventy three games were decided by three points or less
this season. That's tied for the second most in NFL history.
Is that a good thing?
Speaker 5 (25:53):
Yeah, league loves it. That's what they want.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Well, I know the league loves it because they they
want parody. They want a team like Carolina to make
the play. They want everybody to have hope. Yeah, and
their games are always close. They want that.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
And again, in the name of safety, we've changed the game. Uh,
and I think it probably has been. They responded to that.
They were afraid that someone's going to die on the field.
A few people keep launching them bodies as missiles into
each other, and so they they changed the game, slowed
it down, and despite the speed and the athleticism, it's
it's just a more wide open game. And it's and
(26:32):
I've I've said this for since they've made the changes.
It's like the NBA, more and more even it gets
more and more like that. Look at the Pittsburgh Baltimore
game last night, Like, look, it's it's the big names
in the game, the closers with a minute and a
half or two minutes left, and that's like, oh, it's on.
And then down the field, down the field, down the field,
(26:53):
score score score. That wasn't the way the game was
before you had ten point le the fourth quartery, you
kind of locked it up. Now it's like it's just
and it's like the NBA. If you have a closer,
you've got a chance and you're better than better than none.
So the fact that more games that finish him at
three points, that's kind of where the game is today.
(27:14):
It's wide open, it's wild, it's awesome. Anyone before any
of us older guys, they're like, dang, I said this
to you make that like I I don't want.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
To Okay, did you say that you could play in
the NFL now recently?
Speaker 5 (27:29):
If it was Hunger Games and it was like you
have to go out therefore you're dead, you die? You
know I could throw a screen, I could throw something.
I mean but yeah, I could still throw it around
a little bit. I mean you feel like, oh, I've
been getting killed on that, Like, no, suit me up.
(27:49):
I'm not ready to go get But if it was so,
was that or die?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Okay? If I had a draft of quarterbacks over the
age of fifty five, are you going number one?
Speaker 5 (28:06):
Yeah? So like a nutcase, this is where are you
going with it? I tell you crazy man. I know, yeah, yeah,
I am number like the in the supplemental draft number one.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Uh, Brett Farv is fifty six. Do you think you're
a better quarterback now than far of it?
Speaker 8 (28:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:34):
I don't know how this is?
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Are you know?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Oh you've seen those in the backyard. He's killing people
throwing Jerry Rice. You're a guy.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
I can still.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
He took Jerry Rice from you.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
I can still escape.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
You need copper fit is what you.
Speaker 5 (28:52):
Need motion escape.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Any problem with any problem with Troy Aikman helping the
Dolphins find a head coach.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
You've heard me complain about this, how football's dumb. You know,
we don't we don't take I mean we as players,
we used to watch the draft and watch our team
draft and go and then we go to the first
mini camp and we looked around. In fifteen minutes, everyone's like,
Hony sucks, you know, and it's like, well, how is
(29:27):
it that we know that? How is it that we
like they have scouting deep no deep bench of scouts
throughout the year, going all over the country, sifting through everything,
and you don't draw on the guys.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Wait, you could tell in fifteen minutes when you first
saw a draft pick.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Okay, I might be conflating its slate, Okay, but the
idea is true.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
You knew Jerry Rice was going to be great the
first fifteen minutes you saw.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
You saw that. Everyone can see the to everyone else
got to go through what we get that is the NFL.
But but you can just tell the guy loves the
game as the aptitude for it's got that talent, that
that that you know, all the intangibles that we play
in with things that you can't even explain, and the
idea that we don't draw on that. Uh, it feels
(30:19):
crazy to me, and like, why aren't we have And
that's Look, not every guy on the team had that sensibility,
but there's always a handful of guys that you'd want
to have in the room.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Why aren't you a team president?
Speaker 5 (30:33):
I don't know. I ran from the game. I don't know.
I just we That's what Roger Starbeck told me to do.
He said, Uh, how do I Roger? What do I?
What do you? What's the advice for transition? He goes, run,
you know, well, run where let's just run away. The
game will never leave you, but you got to leave it.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
And Uh, would you like to be involved in an organization?
Speaker 5 (30:52):
I think everybody who played probably has a sense that
they could be helpful.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
You know, have the Niners reach out to you.
Speaker 5 (30:59):
Run it and you could run like John Lynch, my
good buddies running the forty nine ers. Why are you
know there's a there's a there's a spirit to it.
By the forty nine Ers are back in the playoffs
again for the last eight years since they were there.
They record Kyle Shana and John Lynch. I mean, and
it's not everybody who played is successful at that job.
(31:19):
But you asked me about Troyman helping the Miami Dolphins.
I'm like, yeah, that can't be. That can't be a
bad idea.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Troy is fifty nine. Are you a better quarter run up?
Speaker 5 (31:31):
I can spin out and they can play you know
the come on, come on?
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Are you a better quarterback than Marino?
Speaker 5 (31:41):
Ka? Oh? You know when I went to my senior year,
I went to the recruiter ship to Army uh West
Point and they played pitt freshman quarterback Dan Marino throw
a laser about forty yards right in front of me
as a senior in ice club, Like, holy this is
this is what college is. Like, I'm finished.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
And Marino's he didn't move when he played, so he
gonna be standing back. He's sixty four. Marino could probably
still direct like a two minute drill.
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Yeah, it'd be funny. It's like it's something to be
all old guy. That's amazing. I like it.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I didn't even throw Montana in there.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
Yeah, well, you know, look to me the game. That's
what happens with the changes in the game. When Tom
Brady told me four or five years ago, and it
was in Tampa, we were on the field before the game,
to goes see the game is amazing, right, It's changed
so much like the flats are always open, the middle
of the field that's unpatrolled and no one can hit me.
So the fact that anyone that's ever played before would say, oh,
(32:47):
put me in you know, So that's that's just a
natural thing. It's not like where I get off my
lawn kind of whole guy Like, it's just like you
see the game today, and you see the game that
I played in the game that's being played today, and
all the guys in the playoffs this year they have
to run around. It's it's normal. It's not an audity.
It's a beautiful thing. Like you're you're better than ever
(33:07):
if you're you know, used to be your scramble, You're
I can't stand you. You've run around now like you know,
it's all okay. It's like I'm missed it by twenty
years now.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Rogers Stallbach is eighty three. He could still Yeah, good
to talk to you once again.
Speaker 7 (33:29):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Not a better high school player apparently than Jay Chandler, but.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Drey Chandler right now somewhere calling all his buddies like
I knew always at my time, my.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Moment, the blue wave of Dery Anne dominated you.
Speaker 5 (33:43):
Wow. Yeah, yeah, you know. Granich High School State champs
again this year, state champs again. So let'sten. I'm just
gonna spin it back on top of you.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Damn thank you, Steve stee Buddy, Steve Young, Hall of Famer.
I didn't think we were going to get into best
quarterbacks over the age of fifty five. But oh that
was good. He's such a good analyst, man, he is.
He's one of my favorites. All right, take a break,
(34:13):
last call for phone calls. What we learned once in
store tomorrow back after this.

I mentioned the stat seventy three games were decided by
three points or less this season. That is tied for
the second most in NFL history. Sixty one of the
seventy three games were decided by a game winning score
in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime,
second most in NFL history, and one other number. Seven
(34:51):
of the eight division winners are different from last season.
That's tied for the most in NFL history.
Speaker 8 (34:59):
Statu stat of the Day, stat of the Day, Start
of the Day, Statut the Day, Stata the Day, Statua.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading
cards of the program. Reggie Miller and the new Michigan
head coach, Kyle Winningham will be joining us on the program. Yes, Paul.
Speaker 9 (35:18):
With all those close games, I've heard a lot of
people on the social media's complain that the end of
games are getting a little easy to tie it up
or win it with long field goals. If you get
a touchback, you're at the thirty five. You need what
twenty five yards to get in a field goal territory
if you have a high end kicker. Now that was
debunked last night with the Ravens. But people are thinking
(35:38):
a lot of people think that the end of game
comebacks are a little too easy with the field goal.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
Well, they do want that. I mean, the NFL is
getting what it wants. This is bite is on once again.
The Raiders have fired Pete Carroll. He assigned a three
year deal a year ago and they ended up with
the NFL's worst record, and now they look for a
new head coach. By the way, we have talked about
Marty Supreme, Seatan and Fritzy and myself all got to
(36:04):
see it over the holidays. There is a scene where
Timothy Challomeg gets spanked with a ping pong paddle and
I found that he actually did get spanked with a
ping pong battle that paddle. So that's a method actor.
That's how you went an Academy award right there. But uh,
(36:25):
who is it? Kevin Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank. Yeah,
he plays this kind of bad guy, this character in there.
He has a huge Yeah he does pretty well, Yes,
he did. He did a really good job. And he's
the one spanking with the paddle. When I first saw him,
I was like, oh god, this guy. It's like, what
(36:46):
the hell? Nickname? Mister wonderful. Yeah, I'm like this dude.
Now he actually did really well. Yeah, Tyler the creator
was great. Yes, he was fantastic. Gwyneth Paltrow was very good.
She was great.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Ye.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
There are a lot of cameos in there. We're not cameos.
There are a lot of smaller roles in there. But
get ready, though, I thought it was awesome, but see
it in a movie theater. That's definitely a movie theater
kind of movie. All right, let me get a couple
of phone calls in here. David in Ohio, David, thank
you for holding as always.
Speaker 10 (37:20):
You're welcome, Dan, Happy New Year, Fast of the weekend
or the break was I guess you could say that
Miami Hurricanes pankd the Ohio State guys. So that was
mine and it was really great to see a football
team win a playoff game in AT and T Stadium.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Thank you, all right, David. Another shot, another shot at
the Cowboys. Jared in Milwaukee, Hi, Jared.
Speaker 8 (37:48):
A DP.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
How are you hey?
Speaker 5 (37:49):
Bud?
Speaker 8 (37:51):
Hey, but first of all, first, long time one seventy five,
down from two thirty five about ten months ago. Best
of the weekend has to be that Sunday night. Er
thought it was a fantastic end of the season. Worst
of the weekend for me was, you know, Gary Danielson
(38:11):
just a little bit ago was talking about He's not
the worst, by the way, he was talking about playing
games of consequence. All these teams were playing games for
seating for playoffs, and they sat their guys. Houston sat
their guys in the second half, Buffalo didn't play their guys.
No offense to your to the danet who was cheering
on miss Drubisky, I don't know. I was confused by that.
(38:34):
Why you know the Eagles sat there, guys, Yeah, and
ended up not getting the two seats. I was confused
by that and was kind of curious your thoughts.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
We talked about that earlier today. That you know, the
Eagles are probably thinking, all right, who are we going
to get? We're gonna get one of these two teams,
Niners or Packers, and I guess they opted for They'd
rather play the Niners. You know you're gonna rest players,
so yeah, I don't you know this is styles make
(39:03):
a boxing match, same with an NFL game. There's certain
games where you go man that team like Miami. I
didn't think without physical Ohio State, Indiana and Alabama I
thought would be more of a even match physically. That
wasn't the case. Miami was far more physical than Ohio State,
(39:23):
and Indiana was far more physical with Alabama. John in California,
Hi John, thanks for holding best and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 11 (39:31):
Hey Dan, longtime taller, but it's you're in a while
since I called my best of the weekend was the
fact that football season's almost over. My worst it maybe
a future for Seaton for a poll is graymond Green.
(39:54):
He's had a bad after holidays. He's been tossed out
of two games and went to his room on one.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Yeah, I know, I'm tired of it. Yeah, I know
he's Hall of Famer. I know that they wouldn't have
won the titles without him, but those days are over.
Everybody's up in arms about Steve Kerr saying, Hey, you know,
the reality is we're not better than a lot of
these teams out west. I'm paraphrasing, you can't win titles
(40:21):
every year it's enjoy you know, Stephen Curry while you can,
because it's gonna, you know, come to a close here
in a couple of years. But Draymond, it just it's
a tired old act.
Speaker 7 (40:35):
Yeah, Marv, he's gonna end up being Bill Liambier, where
you forget about how good of a player he was
because of all the extra stuff.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Let's go around the room. What we learned on the program?
By the way, it was on this day that Bill
Cower stepped down. It's the Steeler head coach in two
thousand and seven, aren't good?
Speaker 5 (40:50):
Buddy?
Speaker 1 (40:50):
Todd?
Speaker 2 (40:50):
Would you learn today.
Speaker 5 (40:52):
Joining the Falcons?
Speaker 11 (40:53):
Rhee Mars'm the dismissed head coaches list, Kevin Stefanski and
Pete Carroll seton.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
Would you learn today? Still some hard feelings and Fairfield County,
Connecticut high school football?
Speaker 5 (41:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (41:04):
Steve Young, I don't know if he appreciated that mention. Marvin,
what did you What did you learn? There's seven Ping
pong movies? Paul? What did you learn?
Speaker 9 (41:12):
Darien and Greenwich is a tie financially?
Speaker 1 (41:16):
Todd?
Speaker 2 (41:16):
What did I learn?
Speaker 5 (41:17):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (41:17):
College player Guardanie said ever suck Cam.
Speaker 2 (41:19):
Newton great to be back, Thanks for joining us. Our
pleasure to serve you. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Have
a great day, everybody,
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio. Happy New Year, gangs all here ready to go.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Final hour, we'll talk to the great Steve Young, Hall
of Famer and the great college football analyst Gary Danielson
calling games for thirty six years. We'll talk to Gary.
Coming up, we'll have a new poll question for the
final hour of the program. Good morning, if you're watching
on Peacock, thank you for downloading the app to watch
the program. And we say good morning to our radio affiliates,
(00:27):
including iHeartRadio, Fox Sports Radio over four hundred cities that
carry this award nominated program if you're just joining us.
The Browns will need a new head coach. Kevin Stefanski
has been fired. The Cincinnati Bengals announced that they were
not firing anybody still waiting to see what happens in
a couple of spots, including the Miami Dolphins and John
(00:50):
Harball is at a tenuous situation with Baltimore the Raiders
with Pete Carroll feels like that's obvious that they will
move on from him, and trying to think if we
had Albert Breer, the Monday Morning quarterback on he thought
that Arizona might keep Jonathan Gannon. But it feels like
there's a few things that are you know, there's openings,
(01:12):
potential openings, but then you also have to go, well,
who are we bringing in, like who is better than
the person that we have And maybe that's what the
Bengals thought, or they want to be fair, they want
to you know, have a healthy roster there. I don't
know if John Harball is going to stay, what happens
to Mike Tomlin. If they bow out in the first round.
They're an underdog. By the way, Texans are favored by
(01:34):
three and a half at the Steelers. The Rams are
favored by nine and a half in Carolina. Packers on
the road favored by one and a half, Bills one
and a half against the Jags, the Niners getting three
and a half against the Eagles, and the Chargers getting
three and a half. Eight seven seven three DP show
college football lines Miami against Ole Miss. Miami is a
(01:55):
three and a half point favorite. Oregon is getting four
against Indiana. As we make the segue to Gary Danielson,
longtime CBS college football analyst, Final broadcast New Year's Eve
with Arizona State and Duke former NFL quarterback as well.
Does it feel like you're retired?
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Not really, because I usually have, you know, these three
or four or five months off before I get going. However,
and it was a year long, really nice schedule in
fact that every game we did, I was treated royally,
saluted heart from everybody I've ever known every week basically,
(02:37):
and I know our crew in the CBS family went
out of their way to make it a great finish
for me.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
The Army Navy game, you know that brings out the
best in you. What is it about that game?
Speaker 3 (02:53):
I guess in a world that's so transactional for everybody,
including me, When I was, you know, working my way
and trying to make the NFL, I mean, I was
just so focused on trying to make that league that
I grew up wanting to do. These are all players
that have dedicated their life to something more than just
themselves and their careers. They dedicated their lives to their country.
(03:18):
But in contrast and along with that, they cared so
much about football and everybody involved in that game because
of that, cared so much about making that presentation special
for them, and the game seemed to always deliver. You know,
When I first started doing it. It was the first
(03:40):
year it was a standalone game, and I think the.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Country kind of learned to love that game.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I don't know how much longer it's going to be there,
but I feel such when I did those games, an
added sense of responsibility to send those guys off because
they loved the game so much.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Did the College Football Playoff Committee get it right?
Speaker 5 (04:00):
I think so.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
I mean seid arguing who was the fourth or fifth
team or the you know, who's the tenth, eleventh, twelve,
thirteenth team.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
As they got bigger, Dan, I think you can agree
with this.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
They're becoming a thinner and thinner difference between who could
be in the playoffs or not. Usually, when there was
two teams, it was pretty easy, maybe one other team.
When there were four teams, it usually was what conference
doesn't get their champion involved? And now it was you know,
whether a game in August mattered to determine who played
(04:34):
in January or the end of December. So I think
for the most part, everybody involved took it seriously.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
I do think it could be improved. Everything could be improved.
I think the.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Home field advantage I know talking to a lot of
coaches off the record, felt that would be better to
play a home game in the first round then get
a buy and I think that's proven out. I thought
Ohio State was a little flat in their game. So
not taking anything away from everybody, but for the most part,
you know, people like to watch games of consequence. You know,
(05:06):
That's what I started off doing in my whole broadcasting career,
ended up the last twenty at CBS. But it felt
like every Saturday in the SEC for eighteen years, we
were the center of attention and people like to watch
games like that.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah, I just wonder where we're going because you know,
we're talking March Madness. Where we want to well not me,
but it feels like they want to expand there's more
money there. Even with college football, we haven't got to sixteen.
We haven't been at twelve very long. Now we're talking sixteen,
which will probably happen next year. Then they're going to
(05:41):
extrapolate and go, well, why don't we go to twenty four? Like,
I just don't know what the number is. I remember
when March Madness was thirty two teams Gary, right, we
never stop, we never you know, the NFL was going
to move to eighteen games. This is what we do.
So I wonder college football, where do you see us
in five years?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I think there will at least be sixteen teams, and
it could be bigger than that, where eight teams get
a buy and they include more. I don't know exactly
how it'll be, but here's what I feel overall about this.
Freedom and capitalism have a great way of figuring things out, okay,
and it ends up going to the perfect spot, the
(06:24):
perfect price point. And you know, it used to be
unless you had a major conglomate around you.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
You know, when you started was through ESPN.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
And now guys like you or Pat McAfee or people
starting podcasts, they have the freedom to go out there
and build their own brand and do what they have
to do. And I thought college football kind of got
stuck where all the great players were gravitating to eight, ten,
twelve schools. I remember I did a seminar at CBS
maybe four or five years ago, and they asked us
(06:55):
to pick our top ten going into twenty twenty nineteen
or something like that, and I went and sought out.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
The Old Life magazine when they had their pre or
Sports Illustrated preseason top ten from the year I graduated
from high school, and eight of the ten teams were
the exact same.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Ten teams that were preseason this year, and I put
it up as my top ten, and there was a
team that didn't belong.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
And what do you do when I go, oh, I'm sorry,
I put the wrong one up. I think it's better now.
Is it perfect?
Speaker 2 (07:26):
No?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
But here's another thing, because there's more money in it. Basically,
more of these athletes are training harder, they're getting individual teachers,
they're going out and having seven on seven leagues, and
there's just a lot more players that were stuck in
(07:49):
Division two or in the MAC that are now getting
their chance to go to these major colleges that we
watch on TV.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
They're not all bad football players. So me and Trinidad Chambliss,
great example. My buddy covered him in high school football
when he was in the state championship and said he
was good but not ready for Michigan. Well he went
to Ferris but in a couple more years and look
where he is now. So I just feel there's more
opportunity and I think it's better than having Georgia Texas
(08:19):
Ohio State having three good quarterbacks and six goods offensive
tackles that those guys spread out, So I don't think
there's that much bad about it.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Longtime CBS college football analyst Gary Danielson joining US can
this year's Hoosiers supplant the movie Hoosiers the basketball team
is a better story.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Whoa, whoa. That's a great question.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
And I just saw that Bobby Plump was just at
the Butler game eighty nine years old. I don't know
if he saw that little clip of him, you know,
and he looked like he could still shoot.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
To me, the way he was waving his hand around,
that would be tougher.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
I think doing a story about six people and a
coach is harder than doing it, you know, for as
many as there.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
But hey, listen, we've all.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
I mean, I'm a Purdue guy, you know, and I
see IU fans everywhere, and.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
I'm a bit.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Jealous and I'm a bit in awe at the same
time that, you know, I couldn't have that storyline when
I was playing, because it is And I see the
fans and they're so proud, and they got their IU
jerseys on their hats, and I kid them a little
bit by selling them that this would be basketball jerseys
and basketball hats right now.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
But no, they are all in and they're really, really
a good football team. Dan.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
I turned on their tape to do the Oregon game
when they played at Oregon, and I'm just like, they
were considered a fraud from twenty to twenty four of
their finish and I thought it would have been hard
for anybody to go into Ohio State or go into
Notre Dame and beat them. And the more you watch
(09:57):
those games, they weren't frauds, but they weren't ready for
the big time stage yet. And I just thought they
were focused this year and they when I put on
the tape and watched the different layers, how the defensive
linemen worked for the linebreckers, the three linebreckers they have,
I mean, it's like watching the old Pittsburgh Steelers with
(10:19):
Lambert and you know those guys. I mean, they're really
really good football players, and they got a special quarterback
and a coach that knows how to lead them. I
don't listen to all four teams could easily win these
games and win the championship, but I know Oregon will
be very focused for this football game. When Indiana beat them,
(10:40):
last time in Oregon, which is a tough place to play.
Oregon was just coming off of their celebration for beating
Penn State, and honestly, when we did our interviews, I
was struck about that. They really couldn't get off the
Penn State story.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
They were so.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Proud of going there winning with one hundred and ten thousand,
and they seemed to not take eye you serious.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Think they're going to take him serious for this game.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Best college player you ever saw, I.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Would have to say Cam Newton to tell you, and
I've seen a bunch of great ones. I thought he
had a team that might have won four or.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Five games without him, and he led him in the
sec he was. I knew of him when he was
at Florida and when he left.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I've seen a bunch of them that were great, no
doubt about it. But if I had to pick.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
One in one season, what he did, I thought Cam
was amazing in that year. I think the highest NIL player,
if they were in today's world, for his four years.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
Would have been Tim Tebow.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
He broke out my first year in two thousand and six,
won the Heisman and seven and stayed all four years.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
I think he could have made a lot of money
if you have been in the game today.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Can college football have a commissioner?
Speaker 4 (11:58):
It's a great question, and I don't no. It's funny.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I have a really good friend that runs a managing
partner for a big law firm all over the state
of Florida, and he's a big college football fan, And
I said, Mike, you could take your three smartest lawyers
and bring three or four of the best football college
football minds into a room, and I think you'd have
a tough time figuring out how to put someone in
(12:21):
charge with all the different and all the way people have.
What's important to the Big ten or the Big twelve
is not important. You know, everybody has their own dynamics
of what will make this thing go. And to make
it fair like the NFL, where you know things go,
then the Big ten and the SEC would have to
(12:43):
seed a lot of power and I don't know if
they're willing to do that.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Thank you for caring, appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
I would like to say that you know, our.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Our end was not exactly the way we've planned it, okay,
and a lot of people put a lot of work
into it, just like any person I was very focused
on what I wanted to say at the end, and
we got squished a little bit in time, and it
was really nobody's fault, probably me.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
I was the last one that had the mic, you know,
and I could have got it, but.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
It was really what I just wanted to compose myself
and think my families, you know, my football families, the
teams that I was on, you know, my Purdue family,
my Lion family, my Browns family, my ABC ESPN family.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
I did not thank them.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
There's thirty forty fifty people that I could have thanked
in those sixteen years, and of course my CBS family.
And I also wanted to tell Charles Davis, who's taking
my spot, that this crew turned head over heels for
make my last year great and that last day great,
and that Todd's blacklich sat in the sea before me.
(14:01):
I've been lucky enough for twenty years, and these people
will all do the same work for you.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Good luck, Charles is a great seat to have.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
But it takes too long, though, Yeah, I was, I
was going to cut you off. Gary, you were going
too long.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
You know what they do to a quarterback if you
rush them, They throw interceptions, and I threw an interception.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Good luck in whatever's next. But thank you, thank you.
We appreciate it. Gary, Thanks thanks for having Gary Danielson,
longtime CBS college football anaist. It's probably the best compliment.
And I hope he took it that way, that he
cared when I listened to a game, when I watched
a game, he cared. And you know, it's not just
the Army Navy game that that's an easy one to
(14:41):
get invested in. Not every game is a great game,
but it's the people who are doing the games that
they care about those games. Well, take a break. Steve
Young will join us next. We'll try to sneak in

Final hour of the program. He might be a Hall

analysts in America, but he was not able to beat
Jaye Chandler and Derry Ann in the high School Champion
(16:00):
Chip game. Steve Young joining us on the program.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
I Steve beautiful, Dan, thank you. Yeah. Yeah. In fact,
all Greenwich High School, all those passing records of my brothers,
So you had to add a little bit more ignoomy,
Is that right? Whatever what happened?
Speaker 2 (16:22):
I mean, Jade Chandler went out to Princeton notable career
in finance.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
You know, Dan, it's a question that I wasn't ready for.
I think that uh uh the blue waves of dry
Ann uh just aut colastics that day. I don't know
what else to say.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I don't know which which town is Richer, Greenwich or Darienne.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
Look, I told you a thousand times I grew up
in the mean streets of Gretwich. I battled my way
out of there. Do not try to change my narrative.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Uh, you had tattered vineyard vine shirts, didn't you like? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:09):
People, you know I played with You know, I played
a lot of guys you know, from all over the
country and they where are you from? Frenwich, Connectic? What's
that like?
Speaker 7 (17:16):
Man?
Speaker 5 (17:16):
It's tough. I try to play it up because if
they ever found out.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
All right, Uh, let's handicap this. If you had to
pick between well, I'm gon leave the Niners out of this,
Seahawks and Rams. They have the two best odds to
win the Super Bowl. Who would you pick right now?
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Well, watching the Seahawks at the day, I think just momentous.
I don't know just how they're playing right the second. Uh,
I feel like the Seahawks were built, uh defensively to
just I mean they're just a vicious and then the
way they're running the football and bad weather and as
(17:56):
long as it look to me, as long as Damn
doesn't turn it over, which has been a huge problem.
This year, They're going to be just fine. I mean,
I'd be a heck of a game right now. I'm
going to be honest with you. But and I look,
Matthew Stafford is abusing the system today. I mean we
talked about this before he grew up in a more
stisticated era. He is just everybody's open in his mind,
(18:18):
you know, like everything's just and then uh, you know
who is doing his I mean it's just there's that'd
be a great game, and uh it's unfortunate I won't
be a super Bowl because of course they're both the NFC.
But right now both are playing really well.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I did think about this with Miles Garrett setting the
single season sack record of LT and Reggie White are
probably considered the two greatest defensive players of all time.
Would you would you say that?
Speaker 5 (18:47):
I would say yes to that, and I would say
Reggie was unique. Both of them were unique. But Reggie is.
You had to meet Reggie to know that he was
six six three. His all court said two ninety, which
tells me that he was four hundred. Like, you know,
you didn't hear you know, you're a liar, Uh, but
(19:08):
he was all of it like he was. He was
he shouldn't play quarterback. I mean, he's just that great
of an athlete. Uh, not take any away from LT,
but you had to you had to meet Reggie, you
had to play against him. You had to hear him,
you know, screaming as he like he snapped the balls
at hood and you know, you hear him and here
he comes, he's he's throwing people out of the way
(19:30):
and then there you know, there he was.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
So is he the greatest defensive player of all time?
Like people want to put Miles Garrett in that conversation,
and I want to be fair to Miles as well,
but Reggie to me was and me and Joe Green
was probably in there as well. I know that was
before you were playing, but l LT changed the game, ye.
Speaker 5 (19:52):
I mean LT was all of that, so doing limon. Look,
we can talk about LT for five minutes if you
want too as well. But I saw Reggie so much,
you know, just he was just so he's just one
of a kind. And I'm LT was as well. But yeah,
Miles is. Look, the problem with Miles is he plays
with the Cleveland Browns and no one gets to really
appreciate how singular he is, and especially in this time
(20:17):
of year. I mean, you know, Reggie and l team
made a lot of their money and a lot of
their reputation in January February. You know that just that's
that's the game, right, that's where you really do make reputation.
So that's what's uh, you know, I even talking about Miles. Look,
I want to see him play next week, you know
what I mean? I want to see him. Uh when
(20:38):
when you know, just it's all on the line and
there he is, you know, so that's the only different.
It feels like.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
How much do you hear these guys? You said you
could hear Reggie White, But like I'm thinking you got
a tunnel vision and tunnel hearing, but there were certain
guys you could hear.
Speaker 5 (20:58):
Nah, yeah, it's pretty You're right, it's like a lot
of White. No, he's in behind you. You know, like
even even the crowd feels like it's just a mind
you know, it's a faceless or kind of thing. Like
I just to me, you're right, but Reggie was you
need because look all weeklong, Wednesday morning, he's like, Okay,
(21:18):
we play the Packers, we play the Eagles, and uh, Reggie,
wife of Tennessee six six three forty and uh, yeah,
you can't lock them, and what are we gonna do? Yeah,
well the six guys, it will just surround him, you know,
and then what about the others. Don't worry about these,
We just take Reggie. So then you talk about it
all week, right, and the linemen are all getting fired
up and then uh and so because of that, he
(21:39):
was just he was always focused on and then he
he was he's screened, but he had a void like
I can't even make a voice like his, Like you
can't go that deep, you know, see I, you know,
And so you could hear him screaming, and then you
could hear him coming. Then he was there, and uh,
you know, I always make fun of it, but it
(22:00):
is kind of funny, like you drought back and you're like, oh,
here we go. You know. It was great. He was
He was a friend. He we didn't see each other
very often. He had a chance to talk to a
great friends. When we come out of college together, my
dad helped him find an agent and we were kind
of got very close. And so all the time we played,
(22:21):
he didn't give me an inch. He was coming for it.
But then as soon as he got me, hold me
fall back and he's like, Steve, how you doing that?
I'm like, I'm not so right now? Parents here tonight,
I'm like, right, Chie, i don't want to talk to
you right now.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
We're talking to the Hall of Famer Steve Young. The
Raiders have just fired Pete Carrol. What did they expect?
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Well, Pete, you know, listen, pizza organized guy. Pete is inspired.
You know, he's his inspiration. He I think you in
today's game, you have you look at the playoffs. It
is Sean Payton, Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan and Andy Reid
(23:09):
and any from the fruit of those coaching trees is
dominating the NFL today offensively, And you know, offensively is
the game they keep changing the rules against. Defense. Defense
is important, there's no question. I mean, there's some great
defense out there despite it all, but the game is
dominated by innovative, young offensive minds. And so, you know,
(23:30):
I love Pete. He's one of my favorite guy's favorite coaches.
And I don't think I still think he could do it,
but he's got to get that help around him that
responds to what's happening right now. Today and then you
have the talent and you have no Look, we keep
always saved Dan. There's equity owners in the NFL. They're
untouchable because they're the equity owners, like you can't they're
(23:54):
they're the most hot fireable people in the in America
are the quarterback number one, the coach number two, and
the general managed number three. And the guy that cannot
be fired is the guy that's the most impactful is
the owner. And I think, uh, you know, you got
to get that straightened out too, because you keep going
(24:15):
around to car Look at the Jets, look at the
teams that just keep going around in a carousel failure.
They have to they have to look at themselves.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
At some point, the Browns fired Kevin Stefanski. I'm wondering,
if you're a coach, how you're going into a situation
where do you know if you have a quarterback, did
you get enough of a sample size with Shadoor Sanders
where you're not you're not going to take the job
because of shoud Or, But are you walking into a
situation where you might be playing Shood or Sanders.
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Yeah, And that's you know, it's tough right now because
it's a developmental project, and he is a project and
he's got a lot of talent. So and you don't
know how projects are always going to turn out. Let's
look at Drake May. They took that's a project, but
that's not a project anymore and h and so that's
the tough spot. Like I just said, if you're a
young innovative mind coming from one of those coaching trees
(25:07):
that's figured it out, it's felt that it's seen it,
and then you have somebody who can play. Look what
happened in Chicago, Look what happened in Jacksonville, Look what
happened even in Carolina a little bit. I mean it's
better than it was. You're in a pretty good spot.
But you know, if you've got someone new that is unproven,
you really don't have a chance unless you have look
(25:29):
at the playoffs again, look with this weekend and look
at the guys that are leading it and the dynamic
and should or has that dynamic play in But he's
gonna need he needs innovative minds to come teach him
and take out the full measure of who he is.
Right now, we just don't know what that is.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Seventy three games were decided by three points or less
this season. That's tied for the second most in NFL history.
Is that a good thing?
Speaker 5 (25:53):
Yeah, league loves it. That's what they want.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Well, I know the league loves it because they they
want parody. They want a team like Carolina to make
the play. They want everybody to have hope. Yeah, and
their games are always close. They want that.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
And again, in the name of safety, we've changed the game. Uh,
and I think it probably has been. They responded to that.
They were afraid that someone's going to die on the field.
A few people keep launching them bodies as missiles into
each other, and so they they changed the game, slowed
it down, and despite the speed and the athleticism, it's
it's just a more wide open game. And it's and
(26:32):
I've I've said this for since they've made the changes.
It's like the NBA, more and more even it gets
more and more like that. Look at the Pittsburgh Baltimore
game last night, Like, look, it's it's the big names
in the game, the closers with a minute and a
half or two minutes left, and that's like, oh, it's on.
And then down the field, down the field, down the field,
(26:53):
score score score. That wasn't the way the game was
before you had ten point le the fourth quartery, you
kind of locked it up. Now it's like it's just
and it's like the NBA. If you have a closer,
you've got a chance and you're better than better than none.
So the fact that more games that finish him at
three points, that's kind of where the game is today.
(27:14):
It's wide open, it's wild, it's awesome. Anyone before any
of us older guys, they're like, dang, I said this
to you make that like I I don't want.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
To Okay, did you say that you could play in
the NFL now recently?
Speaker 5 (27:29):
If it was Hunger Games and it was like you
have to go out therefore you're dead, you die? You
know I could throw a screen, I could throw something.
I mean but yeah, I could still throw it around
a little bit. I mean you feel like, oh, I've
been getting killed on that, Like, no, suit me up.
(27:49):
I'm not ready to go get But if it was so,
was that or die?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Okay? If I had a draft of quarterbacks over the
age of fifty five, are you going number one?
Speaker 5 (28:06):
Yeah? So like a nutcase, this is where are you
going with it? I tell you crazy man. I know, yeah, yeah,
I am number like the in the supplemental draft number one.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Uh, Brett Farv is fifty six. Do you think you're
a better quarterback now than far of it?
Speaker 8 (28:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:34):
I don't know how this is?
Speaker 1 (28:35):
Are you know?
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Oh you've seen those in the backyard. He's killing people
throwing Jerry Rice. You're a guy.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
I can still.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
He took Jerry Rice from you.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
I can still escape.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
You need copper fit is what you.
Speaker 5 (28:52):
Need motion escape.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Any problem with any problem with Troy Aikman helping the
Dolphins find a head coach.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
You've heard me complain about this, how football's dumb. You know,
we don't we don't take I mean we as players,
we used to watch the draft and watch our team
draft and go and then we go to the first
mini camp and we looked around. In fifteen minutes, everyone's like,
Hony sucks, you know, and it's like, well, how is
(29:27):
it that we know that? How is it that we
like they have scouting deep no deep bench of scouts
throughout the year, going all over the country, sifting through everything,
and you don't draw on the guys.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Wait, you could tell in fifteen minutes when you first
saw a draft pick.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Okay, I might be conflating its slate, Okay, but the
idea is true.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
You knew Jerry Rice was going to be great the
first fifteen minutes you saw.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
You saw that. Everyone can see the to everyone else
got to go through what we get that is the NFL.
But but you can just tell the guy loves the
game as the aptitude for it's got that talent, that
that that you know, all the intangibles that we play
in with things that you can't even explain, and the
idea that we don't draw on that. Uh, it feels
(30:19):
crazy to me, and like, why aren't we have And
that's Look, not every guy on the team had that sensibility,
but there's always a handful of guys that you'd want
to have in the room.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Why aren't you a team president?
Speaker 5 (30:33):
I don't know. I ran from the game. I don't know.
I just we That's what Roger Starbeck told me to do.
He said, Uh, how do I Roger? What do I?
What do you? What's the advice for transition? He goes, run,
you know, well, run where let's just run away. The
game will never leave you, but you got to leave it.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
And Uh, would you like to be involved in an organization?
Speaker 5 (30:52):
I think everybody who played probably has a sense that
they could be helpful.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
You know, have the Niners reach out to you.
Speaker 5 (30:59):
Run it and you could run like John Lynch, my
good buddies running the forty nine ers. Why are you
know there's a there's a there's a spirit to it.
By the forty nine Ers are back in the playoffs
again for the last eight years since they were there.
They record Kyle Shana and John Lynch. I mean, and
it's not everybody who played is successful at that job.
(31:19):
But you asked me about Troyman helping the Miami Dolphins.
I'm like, yeah, that can't be. That can't be a
bad idea.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Troy is fifty nine. Are you a better quarter run up?
Speaker 5 (31:31):
I can spin out and they can play you know
the come on, come on?
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Are you a better quarterback than Marino?
Speaker 5 (31:41):
Ka? Oh? You know when I went to my senior year,
I went to the recruiter ship to Army uh West
Point and they played pitt freshman quarterback Dan Marino throw
a laser about forty yards right in front of me
as a senior in ice club, Like, holy this is
this is what college is. Like, I'm finished.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
And Marino's he didn't move when he played, so he
gonna be standing back. He's sixty four. Marino could probably
still direct like a two minute drill.
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Yeah, it'd be funny. It's like it's something to be
all old guy. That's amazing. I like it.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I didn't even throw Montana in there.
Speaker 5 (32:23):
Yeah, well, you know, look to me the game. That's
what happens with the changes in the game. When Tom
Brady told me four or five years ago, and it
was in Tampa, we were on the field before the game,
to goes see the game is amazing, right, It's changed
so much like the flats are always open, the middle
of the field that's unpatrolled and no one can hit me.
So the fact that anyone that's ever played before would say, oh,
(32:47):
put me in you know, So that's that's just a
natural thing. It's not like where I get off my
lawn kind of whole guy Like, it's just like you
see the game today, and you see the game that
I played in the game that's being played today, and
all the guys in the playoffs this year they have
to run around. It's it's normal. It's not an audity.
It's a beautiful thing. Like you're you're better than ever
(33:07):
if you're you know, used to be your scramble, You're
I can't stand you. You've run around now like you know,
it's all okay. It's like I'm missed it by twenty
years now.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Rogers Stallbach is eighty three. He could still Yeah, good
to talk to you once again.
Speaker 7 (33:29):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Not a better high school player apparently than Jay Chandler, but.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Drey Chandler right now somewhere calling all his buddies like
I knew always at my time, my.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Moment, the blue wave of Dery Anne dominated you.
Speaker 5 (33:43):
Wow. Yeah, yeah, you know. Granich High School State champs
again this year, state champs again. So let'sten. I'm just
gonna spin it back on top of you.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Damn thank you, Steve stee Buddy, Steve Young, Hall of Famer.
I didn't think we were going to get into best
quarterbacks over the age of fifty five. But oh that
was good. He's such a good analyst, man, he is.
He's one of my favorites. All right, take a break,
(34:13):
last call for phone calls. What we learned once in
store tomorrow back after this.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
I mentioned the stat seventy three games were decided by
three points or less this season. That is tied for
the second most in NFL history. Sixty one of the
seventy three games were decided by a game winning score
in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime,
second most in NFL history, and one other number. Seven
(34:51):
of the eight division winners are different from last season.
That's tied for the most in NFL history.
Speaker 8 (34:59):
Statu stat of the Day, stat of the Day, Start

Speaker 2 (35:08):
Day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading
cards of the program. Reggie Miller and the new Michigan
head coach, Kyle Winningham will be joining us on the program. Yes, Paul.
Speaker 9 (35:18):
With all those close games, I've heard a lot of
people on the social media's complain that the end of
games are getting a little easy to tie it up
or win it with long field goals. If you get
a touchback, you're at the thirty five. You need what
twenty five yards to get in a field goal territory
if you have a high end kicker. Now that was
debunked last night with the Ravens. But people are thinking
(35:38):
a lot of people think that the end of game
comebacks are a little too easy with the field goal.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
Well, they do want that. I mean, the NFL is
getting what it wants. This is bite is on once again.
The Raiders have fired Pete Carroll. He assigned a three
year deal a year ago and they ended up with
the NFL's worst record, and now they look for a
new head coach. By the way, we have talked about
Marty Supreme, Seatan and Fritzy and myself all got to
(36:04):
see it over the holidays. There is a scene where
Timothy Challomeg gets spanked with a ping pong paddle and
I found that he actually did get spanked with a
ping pong battle that paddle. So that's a method actor.
That's how you went an Academy award right there. But uh,
(36:25):
who is it? Kevin Kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank. Yeah,
he plays this kind of bad guy, this character in there.
He has a huge Yeah he does pretty well, Yes,
he did. He did a really good job. And he's
the one spanking with the paddle. When I first saw him,
I was like, oh god, this guy. It's like, what
(36:46):
the hell? Nickname? Mister wonderful. Yeah, I'm like this dude.
Now he actually did really well. Yeah, Tyler the creator
was great. Yes, he was fantastic. Gwyneth Paltrow was very good.
She was great.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Ye.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
There are a lot of cameos in there. We're not cameos.
There are a lot of smaller roles in there. But
get ready, though, I thought it was awesome, but see
it in a movie theater. That's definitely a movie theater
kind of movie. All right, let me get a couple
of phone calls in here. David in Ohio, David, thank
you for holding as always.
Speaker 10 (37:20):
You're welcome, Dan, Happy New Year, Fast of the weekend
or the break was I guess you could say that
Miami Hurricanes pankd the Ohio State guys. So that was
mine and it was really great to see a football
team win a playoff game in AT and T Stadium.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Thank you, all right, David. Another shot, another shot at
the Cowboys. Jared in Milwaukee, Hi, Jared.
Speaker 8 (37:48):
A DP.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
How are you hey?
Speaker 5 (37:49):
Bud?
Speaker 8 (37:51):
Hey, but first of all, first, long time one seventy five,
down from two thirty five about ten months ago. Best
of the weekend has to be that Sunday night. Er
thought it was a fantastic end of the season. Worst
of the weekend for me was, you know, Gary Danielson
(38:11):
just a little bit ago was talking about He's not
the worst, by the way, he was talking about playing
games of consequence. All these teams were playing games for
seating for playoffs, and they sat their guys. Houston sat
their guys in the second half, Buffalo didn't play their guys.
No offense to your to the danet who was cheering
on miss Drubisky, I don't know. I was confused by that.
(38:34):
Why you know the Eagles sat there, guys, Yeah, and
ended up not getting the two seats. I was confused
by that and was kind of curious your thoughts.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
We talked about that earlier today. That you know, the
Eagles are probably thinking, all right, who are we going
to get? We're gonna get one of these two teams,
Niners or Packers, and I guess they opted for They'd
rather play the Niners. You know you're gonna rest players,
so yeah, I don't you know this is styles make
(39:03):
a boxing match, same with an NFL game. There's certain
games where you go man that team like Miami. I
didn't think without physical Ohio State, Indiana and Alabama I
thought would be more of a even match physically. That
wasn't the case. Miami was far more physical than Ohio State,
(39:23):
and Indiana was far more physical with Alabama. John in California,
Hi John, thanks for holding best and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 11 (39:31):
Hey Dan, longtime taller, but it's you're in a while
since I called my best of the weekend was the
fact that football season's almost over. My worst it maybe
a future for Seaton for a poll is graymond Green.
(39:54):
He's had a bad after holidays. He's been tossed out
of two games and went to his room on one.
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Yeah, I know, I'm tired of it. Yeah, I know
he's Hall of Famer. I know that they wouldn't have
won the titles without him, but those days are over.
Everybody's up in arms about Steve Kerr saying, Hey, you know,
the reality is we're not better than a lot of
these teams out west. I'm paraphrasing, you can't win titles
(40:21):
every year it's enjoy you know, Stephen Curry while you can,
because it's gonna, you know, come to a close here
in a couple of years. But Draymond, it just it's
a tired old act.
Speaker 7 (40:35):
Yeah, Marv, he's gonna end up being Bill Liambier, where
you forget about how good of a player he was
because of all the extra stuff.
Speaker 2 (40:42):
Let's go around the room. What we learned on the program?
By the way, it was on this day that Bill
Cower stepped down. It's the Steeler head coach in two
thousand and seven, aren't good?
