Speaker 2 (00:24):
What a day yesterday was.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
It was fun, it was exciting, it was surprising, and
sometimes the football gods shine down on you fondly.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
And Mike, you would know this.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
As a newsbreaker, sometimes the news media gods help you out.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Because as the Colts.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Were the center of the NFL universe and they were
changing the landscape of the NFL, this is what I
was doing yesterday, of all days, I got on a
damn plane. I flew to the state of Indiana. I
drive to the Colts facility. I'm sitting there with Daniel
Jones chopping it up, so naturally I got to get
(00:59):
his raw reaction to the Sauce Gardner news.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Right.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
No, the news you broke twenty minutes after I left
the facility and I was not allowed back in.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I cannot believe that this happened like this.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I leave the Coats facility, a Coats facility in which
I sat with the franchise quarterback.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I talked with the owner. I talked to Kaylin.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
I talked with the defensive captain, Kenny Moore, who I'm
sure would have had incredible things to say about Sauce
joining the secondary. I was gone twenty minutes ago when
I found out about the sauce gardener news. I was
in the airport eating Chick fil A like an idiot,
just sitting there.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Watching some screen on the airport.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
I was actually dipping into sauce when the Colts got Sawce.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
I'm so mad that I missed this. This was supposed
to be my big moment. I was going to break
all the news. I missed it. Guys.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
I'm so sorry. It wasn't my fault. It should just
happened twenty minutes earlier.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
But I'll tell you this pertaining to the Colts.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
One of the things I did talk to Daniel Jones
about extensively, and that'll air this weekend on the network.
I said, Daniel, dude, you are the number one story
in the NFL. You and the Colts are the number
one story. It's the biggest surprise, it's the most field
goal thing. It's an incredible deal. How do you feel
about that? And we chopped it up well twenty minutes
later they became even a bigger story. This is interesting
(02:11):
to me, the Colts getting sauce, not because they're the Colts,
and he's a good player.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
They have the.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
One seed in the AFC right now, this really really matters.
This is not some fledgling team fighting for a wild card.
This is not some team trying to turn their season around.
They already turn their season around. They're seven to two
and I think they're gonna be eight and two. I
think they're gonna beat Atlanta in Europe this weekend. Understand
that the Colts making this move with them saying we
(02:38):
are not gonna be happy.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
With a home playoff game.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
We know we're gonna get a home playoff game or
one playoff game, and they're gonna come in, We're gonna
lose to.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
The Chiefs and it's gonna be over. No, screw that.
Let's get a guy who can be a difference maker.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Let's get a guy who can break up a pass
on third and nine against some team in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Let's get better.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
And I also just think in the last note on
the Colts, like guys, Daniel Jones has a long, deep,
lucrative future in the Indianapolis Colts.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
He's not a one year.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Three months ago, he was in an open quarterback competition
with Anthony Richardson. That's how fast this has changed. He
is sitting there ready to be extended. They're winning, They're
gonna matter. We're gonna talk a lot of Daniel Jones Colts,
and not just the rest of this year, the next
several years, probably because the Colts these moves. Everybody are like,
we love Daniel Jones and we think we can win
multiple playoff games this year.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
It's nuts and I completely missed it, my bad.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
The most important thing they got accomplished yesterday was the
Colts got better, significantly better, and they sent a message
to themselves and to everybody about this isn't just the
darling Colts who got a little sniff of winning and
now we're gonna just wither away. We want to do
serious things in January. And if they had one fault
on their defense, it's very good. But it's not terribly young.
If you look at some of the guys that have
(03:50):
been around that Dan, you know the names like they're
really good players. I'm not even saying they're washed or anything,
but they just don't have a ton of impact players
who are very young. Sauce is coming into his absolute prime.
He's ready to be reinvigorated.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
You know Sauce too. He embraces the area.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
He's in, like he will do things basketball related.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
He'll do like Caitlin Clark with homages.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
He'll probably go on McAfee like all that Indiana stuff.
He will be totally into and I think it's going
to be exciting. I think the Colts got better, and
I think the Colts are currently sitting at number one.
Else remember guys as a show. The next few weeks
are very very interesting. This weekend they're in Germany with
their early kickoff playing the Falcons. Then they go on
a buy and then they go to Arrowhead.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
So this is a.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Huge, weird, fun, big time stretch. This is the most
important three weeks of Indianapolis cults in years years, and
it's also the most exciting. I mean, we're all in
hands and feet inside the Daniel Jones roller coaster at
all times because this is a team to watch. I
just have to get this out there. And I know
this is polarizing and people get mad about this. I
don't bow and kneel to the draft picks. God, I
(04:56):
think it is a false God.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I do.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
You could put up one hundred first round picks. This
is the New York Jets we're talking about. You could
put up three hundred first round picks over the next
two drafts.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
If they don't hit on a quarterback. I don't care.
All I care about is can you draft a quarterback?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Because the reason we're here, honestly, Rogers, Wilson, Darnold strike
three oh and three year out. They're still paying for
all that stuff. So great job, you traded two really
good players.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You have a bunch of picks. Picks to me are kindling.
They just burn if you don't use them. Rights.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
They're lottery scratch offs. You think, oh, look all these
fun scratch offs. I'm gonna win up a pot of
gold logo.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
You're not gonna win squad. Most of the time, you
don't win anything.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
So what's gonna happen here is if they don't hit
on a quarterback pick. It's just the same nonsense we're
going over and over with, because those other picks that
they're gonna spend on, they're gonna spend on players, potentially
defensive players that they just hope and pray will become
Quinn and Sauce, and most likely they won't be as.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Good as Quinn and Sauce.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
So I just don't believe in trading really good bird
in the hand ball players for lottery scratch offs that
probably won't win. And you say, well, we're not winning.
We're not winning. You have to hit a quarterback. Stop
missing on the stupid quarterback, you guys, that's why we're here.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
You got at least to get a guy. Listen, I'm
not saying you're gonna get Mahomes. I'm not. You got
to get a guy who can just get the plane down.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
Can you not just draft the Derek Carr one of
these years? Can you not find yourself like a Matt
Ryan who ends up being a really good player who
maybe not a Hall of Famer. My god, just get
it on the fairway with one of these quarterback picks,
and then you can keep your Quinns and Sauces.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
That's the problem.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
So congratulations, you've lost two really good players. You got
picks that you might blow, and when it comes to
a quarterback you probably will, and until you don't, I'm
not interested.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
In your draft picks.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
It's very strange to me, and it's very frustrating that
the Cowboys are three to five and one the season's over. Sorry,
Like they have to go probably seven and one down
the stretch to make the playoffs, even scratch a wild
and lose there. That's not happening. We've seen this Cowboys team.
I don't care who they could add Aaron Donald. They're
not going seven and one down the stretch. So you say,
(07:12):
all right, well, we're just trying to bring a great
player in here, and I do think he is a
really great player. A lot of times Quinn takes a
little heat, I think because he has not been an
excellent past rusher this year. But he's a defensive tackle.
He's fantastic against the run. Like we've been talking about.
I'm not really bringing him in to rush the passer.
But let's just say what it is. I'm always very
reticent about. Is football The first, second, and third reason
(07:34):
that the Cowboys made this move. Because I don't know
if you've seen, Jerry's been.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Doing a lot of talking lately, which God bless him.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
He sits with Steven A and basically surrenders a smoking
gun in every suspicion ever about his football mentality and says,
when it gets slow, I stir that bleep up. My
point is I just want to be relevant. I just
want you to be looking at us.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
That's a quote, that's not something made up, that's an
actual quote. Doesn't this feel like a guy that Jerry
Jones would want to have with the star and his helmets,
everything about them, the New York City after glow, the smile,
the name, the size, Like he just feels like a
Jerry Jones cowboy. Unfortunately, like it's not nineteen ninety two
(08:17):
or not nineteen ninety five, and he's on a three,
five and one team that is going nowhere and bottomed
out last week against the Cardinals. So I guess if
you're looking at twenty twenty six already, then they have
a really good player in the building. And as I
said earlier, I don't care what they spent togein them.
I like players over picks.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
But it's just the Cowboys are They're not a relevant
team in the NFC landscape. They're not guys like we're
talking about them because Quinn is famous and they made
a bold move. But do you really care about the
Cowboys next game?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
In terms of thirty two teams? I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
So they can go four or five and one. I
can't even keep track of what their record is. So
great player in the future, I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Good job.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
I wonder how much of it was done to just
make a splash because Jerry's bored and everyone else is
looking at smaller market teams like the Seahawks and the Panthers,
or maybe even the Cardinals who just kicked the crap
out of the Cowboys. And now we get to have
that star on the bottom of the screen and hope
that Quinn Williams fourteen fifteen, sixteen months from now is
on the push to a Cowboys playoff game because they're
(09:14):
not now.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
You know, you have the teams that are middling, that
are trying.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
To get good and add somebody to get it to
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
But I like the one percenters.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I like the teams that are already wealthy and want more.
I like the teams that say, no, I want the
bigger private jet. And I like what the Seattle Seahawks
did the NFC West Darling said, you know what we need.
We need a little rocket fuel in our private jet.
We're gonna get Rashid Shaheed and we're going to bring.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Him in here. Guys, I have numbers for you. I
don't do a lot of numbers.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Here are some distances of receptions in Rashid Shaheed's career
eighty seven, fifty nine, sixty eight, seventy, fifty eight, fifty three,
fifty one, seventy.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
This guy is up there to hit jacks.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
This is a Ryan Howard or Jim Tomy or one
of these lumberjack types. She's like, I'm going to try
to hit at five hundred feet and it is a
perfect synergy. He reunites with Clint Kobak and Seattle. He's
with the New Orleans last year. Seattle does not need
Rashid shah Heed.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
They don't. They're already good without them. They have a
superstar in JSN. They didn't need them, and they still
got them. That's why I like it.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
It's not a question of need, it's a question of greed,
and that's the time to be greedy at the trade
deadline is that we don't want to go to the
playoffs and lose in the first or second round. We're
trying to play in the title game. We're trying to
get to the damn super Bowl this year, and.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
We'll play it in the forty nine Ers Stadium. The
Seahawks are fantastic.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Rashi Chaheed now gets a huge quarterback upgrade from the
guys in New Orleans to Sam Donald, who's brilliant.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
It's a little piece, I get it. It's not the
marquee name, it's not a wide receiver one. But in
a game down the stretch, all of a sudden, when
you see Shaheed catch about a ninety yard bomb from
Sam Donald, that was because they made the move at
the trade deadline. Quinn Williams sawusgard. They're all great, wonderful.
Rashid Shaheed is going to impact games down the stretch.
I know it's for the Seahawks or everyone's la la
(11:03):
la la. I don't care. Your fingers out of ears
and pay attention. They got better yesterday. Okay, So the
history here Tush push highly controversial. In the offseason in
which the Green Bay Packers wrote a rule change proposal
they would have functionally banned the play. They wrote the proposal,
they got it voted on. Green Bay Packers president Mark
(11:23):
Murphy quote, I am not a fan of this play.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
There's no skill involved. Fast forward to this week.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Now, when the Packers have to face that play inevitably,
Matt Lafleur says, well, the best ways to not allow
it to happen, and he's pushed by the media appropriately.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Have you changed your mind on the tush push? Are
you still against it? Quote? Guys, I'm not going to
get into it. It is what it is. Well, I
respect that.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
He's not going to get into a conversationally, but you
better believe he is going to see it over and
over again. Nick Siriani is a lot of things. I
believe one of those things is petty. I also believe
one of those things is competitive. I will also remind
you that Nick Siriani and Matt Lafleur aren't this sort
of McVeigh Shanahan relationship where they came up together and
(12:10):
worked on the same staff and they are old bros.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
And this, and that there's none of that.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I will also remind you there's a very good chance
that the Eagles face the Packers in the playoffs if
things continue this way. In conclusion, I've had this game circled.
I think Sirianni's had this game circle. I think everyone has.
I think we are going to see a tush push
a palooza this weekend in lambeau Field in which I
(12:36):
would not surprise me that the Eagles do it on
the first snap from the game, say from their own
thirty yard line, just to take a shot across the bow.
We may set a record. If you hate the tush push,
this is gonna be a hate watch for you. If
you love the tush push, tune in because they may
do this sucker thirty times and you know what I
completely see and respect. Why go for it, Nick, release
(12:58):
the hounds on these guys. Ten Takes is a production

(02:11):
to me, the Colts getting sauce, not because they're the Colts,
and he's a good player.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
They have the.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
One seed in the AFC right now, this really really matters.
This is not some fledgling team fighting for a wild card.
This is not some team trying to turn their season around.
They already turn their season around. They're seven to two
and I think they're gonna be eight and two. I
think they're gonna beat Atlanta in Europe this weekend. Understand
that the Colts making this move with them saying we
(02:38):

Speaker 2 (02:39):
With a home playoff game.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
We know we're gonna get a home playoff game or

You could put up one hundred first round picks. This
is the New York Jets we're talking about. You could

Speaker 2 (06:50):
In your draft picks.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
It's very strange to me, and it's very frustrating that
the Cowboys are three to five and one the season's over. Sorry,
Like they have to go probably seven and one down
the stretch to make the playoffs, even scratch a wild
and lose there. That's not happening. We've seen this Cowboys team.
I don't care who they could add Aaron Donald. They're

(07:12):
all right, well, we're just trying to bring a great
player in here, and I do think he is a
really great player. A lot of times Quinn takes a
little heat, I think because he has not been an
excellent past rusher this year. But he's a defensive tackle.
He's fantastic against the run. Like we've been talking about.
I'm not really bringing him in to rush the passer.
But let's just say what it is. I'm always very
reticent about. Is football The first, second, and third reason
(07:34):
that the Cowboys made this move. Because I don't know
if you've seen, Jerry's been.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Doing a lot of talking lately, which God bless him.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
He sits with Steven A and basically surrenders a smoking
gun in every suspicion ever about his football mentality and says,
when it gets slow, I stir that bleep up. My
point is I just want to be relevant. I just
want you to be looking at us.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
That's a quote, that's not something made up, that's an
actual quote. Doesn't this feel like a guy that Jerry
Jones would want to have with the star and his helmets,
everything about them, the New York City after glow, the smile,
the name, the size, Like he just feels like a
Jerry Jones cowboy. Unfortunately, like it's not nineteen ninety two
(08:17):
or not nineteen ninety five, and he's on a three,
five and one team that is going nowhere and bottomed
out last week against the Cardinals. So I guess if
you're looking at twenty twenty six already, then they have
a really good player in the building. And as I
said earlier, I don't care what they spent togein them.
I like players over picks.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
But it's just the Cowboys are They're not a relevant
team in the NFC landscape. They're not guys like we're
talking about them because Quinn is famous and they made
a bold move. But do you really care about the
Cowboys next game?
Speaker 2 (08:44):
In terms of thirty two teams? I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
So they can go four or five and one. I
can't even keep track of what their record is. So
great player in the future, I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Good job.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
I wonder how much of it was done to just
make a splash because Jerry's bored and everyone else is
looking at smaller market teams like the Seahawks and the Panthers,
or maybe even the Cardinals who just kicked the crap
out of the Cowboys. And now we get to have
that star on the bottom of the screen and hope
that Quinn Williams fourteen fifteen, sixteen months from now is
on the push to a Cowboys playoff game because they're
(09:14):
not now.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
You know, you have the teams that are middling, that
are trying.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
To get good and add somebody to get it to
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
But I like the one percenters.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
I like the teams that are already wealthy and want more.
I like the teams that say, no, I want the
bigger private jet. And I like what the Seattle Seahawks
did the NFC West Darling said, you know what we need.
We need a little rocket fuel in our private jet.
We're gonna get Rashid Shaheed and we're going to bring.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Him in here. Guys, I have numbers for you. I
don't do a lot of numbers.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
Here are some distances of receptions in Rashid Shaheed's career
eighty seven, fifty nine, sixty eight, seventy, fifty eight, fifty three,
fifty one, seventy.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
This guy is up there to hit jacks.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
This is a Ryan Howard or Jim Tomy or one
of these lumberjack types. She's like, I'm going to try
to hit at five hundred feet and it is a
perfect synergy. He reunites with Clint Kobak and Seattle. He's
with the New Orleans last year. Seattle does not need
Rashid shah Heed.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
They don't. They're already good without them. They have a
superstar in JSN. They didn't need them, and they still
got them. That's why I like it.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
It's not a question of need, it's a question of greed,
and that's the time to be greedy at the trade
deadline is that we don't want to go to the
playoffs and lose in the first or second round. We're
trying to play in the title game. We're trying to
get to the damn super Bowl this year, and.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
We'll play it in the forty nine Ers Stadium. The
Seahawks are fantastic.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Rashi Chaheed now gets a huge quarterback upgrade from the
guys in New Orleans to Sam Donald, who's brilliant.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
It's a little piece, I get it. It's not the
marquee name, it's not a wide receiver one. But in
a game down the stretch, all of a sudden, when
you see Shaheed catch about a ninety yard bomb from
Sam Donald, that was because they made the move at
the trade deadline. Quinn Williams sawusgard. They're all great, wonderful.
Rashid Shaheed is going to impact games down the stretch.
I know it's for the Seahawks or everyone's la la
(11:03):
la la. I don't care. Your fingers out of ears
and pay attention. They got better yesterday. Okay, So the
history here Tush push highly controversial. In the offseason in
which the Green Bay Packers wrote a rule change proposal
they would have functionally banned the play. They wrote the proposal,
they got it voted on. Green Bay Packers president Mark
(11:23):
Murphy quote, I am not a fan of this play.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
There's no skill involved. Fast forward to this week.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Now, when the Packers have to face that play inevitably,
Matt Lafleur says, well, the best ways to not allow
it to happen, and he's pushed by the media appropriately.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Have you changed your mind on the tush push? Are
you still against it? Quote? Guys, I'm not going to
get into it. It is what it is. Well, I
respect that.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
He's not going to get into a conversationally, but you
better believe he is going to see it over and
over again. Nick Siriani is a lot of things. I
believe one of those things is petty. I also believe
one of those things is competitive. I will also remind
you that Nick Siriani and Matt Lafleur aren't this sort
of McVeigh Shanahan relationship where they came up together and
(12:10):
worked on the same staff and they are old bros.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
And this, and that there's none of that.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I will also remind you there's a very good chance
that the Eagles face the Packers in the playoffs if
things continue this way. In conclusion, I've had this game circled.
I think Sirianni's had this game circle. I think everyone has.
I think we are going to see a tush push
a palooza this weekend in lambeau Field in which I
(12:36):
would not surprise me that the Eagles do it on
the first snap from the game, say from their own
thirty yard line, just to take a shot across the bow.
We may set a record. If you hate the tush push,
this is gonna be a hate watch for you. If
you love the tush push, tune in because they may
do this sucker thirty times and you know what I
completely see and respect. Why go for it, Nick, release
(12:58):
the hounds on these guys. Ten Takes is a production

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
