Speaker 1 (00:04):
Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in
partnership with iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
It's Good Morning Football everybody percented by Old Trapper, Beef, Turkey, Busy,
the Little Wednesday we have on October twenty second Jamie
eard All mant Iao.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Here in Los Angeles. Kyle Brant is.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Joined by Mike Garrafalo in New York City. And Kyle,
it's not like we want to keep seeing the back
page of the New York newspapers. The headlines and the
topics and the questions just keep writing themselves when you
have teams, both teams saying.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Some things that we got to get into.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Well, the bus stops here. We have Woody Johnson. The
buck stops here. Woody throws fields under it while praising
winless Glenn.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
It's Jets talk.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
The only winless team in the NFL is the back
page of the post. And yet, Jamie, I think we're
starting talking about another team.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
In you what I'm saying, That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
We're going to get into it. All thirty two represented
of GMFB.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
I think we promised that we'll be right there.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Welcome to Good Morning Football, presented by Bold Trapper. Yeah,
that's right, GMFB, everybody, Jamie, Manti, Mike g and Kyle.
It's the Fall League meeting happening in the NFL as well,
which means people of prominence across the league are arriving there.
Mike Ge, you were at the Fall League meeting yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
What's the tone, what's the vibe? What's happening there?
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Kind of a quiet meeting, but there's always news, there's
always stuff to be discussed. I believe we're laying the
groundwork at this meeting for what's going to happen in
the spring, at the annual meeting where they vote on
rules changes. And I think you're going to see the
touch push Apple. We'll get into that a little bit later.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Oh indeed we will.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
We'll talk about who the Eagles are playing this week,
and with that, somehow we are going to set the
table with the Broncos. Wild and historic comeback win for
the Denver Broncos, However, that was not enough for them
to take down the Giants.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Single handedly in the fourth quarter on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Instead, they're head coach Sean Payton with the media and
praise the valiant effort from their rookie quarterback, not the
Broncos second year quarterback the Giants rooky quarterback Jackson Dart,
and he even took a little dig at Dart's backup,
former Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
I have a ton of respect for that organization. I
spent four of my early years there coordinating Super Bowl
first game in this stadium before nine to eleven close
with the Mary Tish family, and you know, they found
a little spark with that quarterback. I was talking to
John mayeror not too long ago, and I said, we
(02:39):
were hoping that that change would have happened long long
after our game.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I mean, okay, so these two have history. Keep in
mind Wilson. Russell Wilson spent two years in Denver, which
includes the twenty twenty three season playing for Sean Payton,
and he responds to this apparent shade by saying classless,
but not surprised.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Then we get into the heavyheading stuff pun intended.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Didn't realize You're still bounty hunting fifteen plus years later
through the media hashtag with lots of emojis in between that,
let's ride.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I always like to say, a gi me, Peter.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
There's some things that just make us all cackle and
like want to be at the table just a couple
of minutes into the top of the show. I'm sure
we all have things to say about this. Particularly I
will start though with man Ti Teo, as you played
for Sean Payton, and I'm sure you know Russell.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Can you begin to unpack this back and forth forth?
Speaker 7 (03:30):
Yes, So I do have history with Sean Payton, and
I do empathize with Russell Wilson to a certain degree
because when Russell Wilson did play for the Denver Broncles,
we saw a lot of the antics on the sideline
where Sean Payton would be getting on them. I've been
on the receiving end of some of those, and I
know exactly what was being said or the types of
things that were being said. Why, because they're being said
(03:51):
to me. Now with that being said, when I hear
Sean Payton say those words, I'm sorry, guys, I don't
see where the jab is.
Speaker 8 (03:59):
I don't.
Speaker 7 (04:00):
And again this is coming from somebody who I know, Sean.
Speaker 8 (04:04):
Payne, and I know how direct it can be. Yes,
And I know some.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
Of the choice words that he can use to somebody
in those type of exchanges. I don't see where the
job is. I see somebody who's praising a quarterback. I
see somebody who's speaking truth as to the spark at
which Jackson Dart has been able to provide for the
New York Giants.
Speaker 8 (04:28):
I said it on this show.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
That he has there's a different feel with Jackson Dart
and that even when Russell Wilson was in there, that
I think there's some change that needs to happen. And
remember I brought up the lighter situation, like it's like
there's a lighter that you keep outside and there's a
lighter that's insight that can help. Like I said that,
was I taking a job at Russell Wilson.
Speaker 8 (04:47):
No, I wasn't. I was just saying that Jackson.
Speaker 7 (04:50):
Dart is a young quarterback that has a skill set
that fits.
Speaker 8 (04:53):
What Brian Dabo and the New York Giants are trying
to do. So I don't know.
Speaker 7 (04:58):
I may be different, but because of my experiences with
Sean Payne and because I can see this through both lenses,
I don't see where the jab is marching.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
I do know where it is, and man, I tell
you and I can watch it together after the tell
don't run it again, we've already seen it for the
last couple of days.
Speaker 9 (05:15):
But there's a moment in there. It's a little pause.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
You gotta look for it, and you gotta listen for it.
Because you listen for it. It's that silence and that
pause and that look in Sean Payton's eyes where he goes,
I'm gonna give a sixty percent compliment to Jackson Darton,
and the other forty percent is going to be a
slap back at Russ.
Speaker 9 (05:31):
I mean, you got to like, at some point look.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
At it and go for me to get Russell Wilson,
of all people, not just the fireback, but to fire
back publicly, to put it out on social media. Between
the Nathaniel Hackett thing and the Russell Wilson thing and
Chun Payton exercising the demons of the last couple of
years in his mind, it's sort of like that scene
in Billy Madison where he's playing dodgeball with the kids.
Speaker 9 (05:56):
You know, now you're all in big, big trouble.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I thought it was Fatick taking it off the list,
his name on the list, first of all. I thought
the hashtag let it Ride was funny. I was amused
by that it's self deprecating a reference.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
Yes, I would have pared down the emojis a little bit.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
It takes the impact out of we don't need all
the like cry laughing emojis. I was surprised by the tweet.
I think a lot of people I was. I was
also a little confused. So Russ tweets this Tuesday night
over two days prior, over forty eight hours prior.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Sean Payton seemingly inferred.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
That he would have rather have played Russell Wilson than
Jackson Dart. Like Sean Payton, if he wants to take
a shot at you, I think he's taking it across
the bridge of the nose, like it is just.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Going to be full on an attack.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
It is not going to have to parse words and
take pauses all. Also for Russ, I feel like, just socially,
reputation wise, it's punching down. I thought Sean Payton is
a rogue. He is a pirate, is just what he does.
Russell Wilson off the field is a saint. He's the
Walter Payton Man of the Year. Did Russ write this?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Was this actually him? Is this someone on his team
around him? Russell Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Social media is like it's Bible versus and it's photos
of children's hospital visits. It's all incredibly wholesome things. And
now he's bringing up pain players to knock other players
out of the game by a decade and a half ago,
it just doesn't seem like something he would do. And
then I'm not to mention now like now the Giants
are about Russell Wilson. Yesterday's New York Post had a
(07:30):
whole story about Jackson Dart's moxie and cunning in the
face of all the adversity in the Denver game, and
now it's about like the backup quarterback is taking shots
at his old coach about something that happened a decade
and a half ago. There's a take that's like, you know,
good for us, stand up for himself, and that's fine.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Like I'm not being petty about this.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I just I felt, like russ said off the field,
on the field has not gone great recently. Off the field,
he has such dignity and such gravitas. And to just
circle back two days later to try to trade blows
with your old coach about.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Bounty stuff, I don't know. It's very surprising, very very surprising.
Speaker 7 (08:05):
Uh, that's a great point, KB, And this is what
I just asked Jamie. Was that game happened on Sunday?
When did he put out the tweet? She told me,
when he put out the tweet. We didn't even cover
this yesterday. This wasn't a thing yesterday until the tweet
came out. And so for us, it's like you took
maybe something that was a statement that may not have
(08:26):
been directed at you, and then perfectly directed it at you,
and it was just like, this wasn't even a situation.
We just had a whole show yesterday or the past
two days, and we didn't even talk about this, and
then the tweet comes out and now we're talking about that.
So that's that goes to back what I goes back
to what.
Speaker 8 (08:42):
I was saying.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
I do now see what Mike g was was referencing
that little pause.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
In there again, let's press the up. I want to
see it. Let's go.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
I have a ton of respect for that organization. I
spent four in my early years there coordinating Super Bowl
first game in this stadium before nine to eleven, close
with the Marritish family, and you know, they found a
little spark with that quarterback. I was talking to John
Mayor not too long ago, and I said, we were
hoping that that change would have happened long long after
(09:17):
our game.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Yeah, I kind of.
Speaker 9 (09:21):
With Mike Wheels their territory.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
I'm kind of now he's you see him, he's he's
cruising and cruising and coach mode, and then.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
He satan and then he and then he.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Starts thinking and concocting, and he makes sure to say,
you know, I was talking with the owner over there,
and I was telling him there's definitely something.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
But I think Samantha's point. I don't really know if
anybody realized that at the time that.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Wasn't There was so much we were talking about coming
out of Broncos Giants like it was one the craziest
game of the year. Yeah, no one was like, ooh,
did you see what Sean Payton kind of said in
that press conference until now right.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
Yeah, Russ made sure it happened.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
You talked about his social media feed. If you look
at his account on x it's him at the hospital.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
It's beautiful.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Then on October nineteenth, was three days ago. God, you
get all my praise hashtag great frightfulness and then the
shot across the bow.
Speaker 9 (10:08):
It's weird on Peyton and then back to his visits
with the hospital and.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Uh no, three hours after this tweet, there's maybe maybe
maybe it's maybe it's art right, art imitates life type
of thing.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Sean Payton's insult was wrapped in a compliment. It's kind
of like that when you just pull up his timeline
of his last four you know, so it's all this
great stuff and visiting the hospital and God and then.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Right there in the middle kind of rep It makes
me wish that the that the Giants were playing the
Steelers in a couple of weeks, so that if Mike
Tomlin were to say something about, yeah, you know, Jackson
darr has really given that team a left and then
he's like whoa like?
Speaker 4 (10:45):
And he comes back and goes after tom like who
was it?
Speaker 5 (10:48):
I think it was Dan Duggan who put out he
covers the Giants, and I think he had a record
Tomlin's ten there it is, yeah, Dan Duggan right here,
Mike Tomlin went ten and.
Speaker 9 (10:57):
Seven with the two quarterbacks who have gone oh to
nine in New York.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
This unbelievable.
Speaker 9 (11:01):
How about that? Yeah, that on the resume.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
All I can think of in the last seven minutes
since mants I first made his point was, first of all,
anyone that starts with you don't have a relationship with him.
You didn't say, oh, I played for the guy. You said,
I have history with Sean Payton. Immediately that carries weight
for me when you choose that word. Secondly, I'm like
mat tig, what did he say to you on the
sideline that You're just like, I know what he says,
but that's not how he talks.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
We'll talk offline.
Speaker 10 (11:26):
No, no, we could talk Allline let me know, James
h Roll. Okay, so I'll tell you. I'll tell you
what happened. So in twenty eighteen, I was with the
New Orleans Saints. So it's my second year with the
New Orleans Saints and I was a starter on the team,
the starting mike linebacker. We're about to play the La Rams,
and I remember, if anybody doesn't know the football work,
We've play on Sunday, film review, Monday, off Tuesday. Then
(11:47):
the first week of the first day of the week
is Wednesday. Wednesday, I'm starting Thursday, I'm starting Friday. Game
plan is pretty much done.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
Coach Mike Nolan, who is my linebacker coach at that time,
comes up to me after the team meeting.
Speaker 8 (11:58):
He say, coach wants to see you in the hallway.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
Says, all right, So I go to the hallway and
that's when coach Sean Payton says, hey, listend to numbers.
We're gonna You're going to be inactive this week. He's like,
but be ready next week. I was like, well, why
am I inactive? He's like, well, you're just not going
to play, so our I'll be ready next week. Guys,
that happened for eight weeks straight. I was inactive. I
was told to be ready, then Friday told you're inactive.
Like imagine that for eight weeks, eight weeks straight. So
(12:21):
I had my beefs with Sean Payton. So with all
of that being said, I can tell you to what
KB said is if coach wants to take a shot
at you, he's going to take a shot at you,
and you're going to know it, and he's going to
tell you personally and let everybody else know what how
he feels about you. So I'm not saying that he's
a saint. I'm not saying that he's an angel. But
what I am saying is when I hear those words
(12:41):
from Sean Payton, Sean Payne isn't talking cold, you know, and.
Speaker 8 (12:45):
So when he's going to tell you exactly how he feels.
Speaker 7 (12:47):
And for somebody who knows how he felt about myself,
I don't see.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Where the shot wasn't in those remarks.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I just I'm wondering. You know what I'm thinking about
this morning.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Think about Justin Fields, who's like, oh, his ex coach
kind of said that maybe the team is better with
the rookie.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
My owner just said, I can't.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Complete a pass and I've been here for ten minutes, Like,
why are you.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Talking about that? We will?
Speaker 1 (13:11):
We will because the Jets nuking the quarterback was is
a thousand times more than the old coach that nuking
sort of hitting with a glove Russell was, that's nothing.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Justin Fields took like a warhead.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
What he walked up and said, I don't have much
to say, and then had a lot to say.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Oh, well done, everybody. The Giants, they have a lot
to look forward to. We're going to keep talking about
the teams in New York. They play the Eagles, moving
on we have to check in with the Fall League meeting.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
We mentioned at the top of the show.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Ian Rappaport and Judy Battista are there because we borrowed
Mike g for the day.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Listen, we just talked about it.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Jets owner Widdie Johnson on wavering support for the head
coach and Aaron Glenn despite the team's winless starts. What
can you make of what he had to say yesterday
in terms of his quarterback, the coach rap sheet and
all things Jets.
Speaker 11 (14:03):
Well, what is also the case at these meetings, it's
never what's on the agenda that makes the headlines. It's
always what happens always, and interestingly, Woody Johnson arrived here
and said like, I don't really have any comment to make,
and then he proceeded to make a whole lot of comments.
He basically blames the issues with the New York Jets
on the quarterback justin fields. He said, if we could
(14:23):
just complete a pass, that would look good. As they
ponder who they're going to start at quarterback this week,
he definitely still supports Aaron Glenn. He feels that he
is the guy who can fix it. He called it
the real deal. He actually pointed to the improvement in
the defense over the last few weeks as evidence that
Aaron Glenn is capable of fixing things Ian But certainly
(14:43):
it was startling to hear an owner speak in such
blunt terms about the starting quarterback of his team.
Speaker 12 (14:51):
Yeah, and you know, I understand what he Johnson was
trying to do was trying to show Aaron Glenn that
he's got his back.
Speaker 13 (14:56):
I was trying to.
Speaker 12 (14:57):
Hug him, as he says he does daily, to tell
him that there is hope, he's got support, all of
the good things in the organization. But to do that,
he really made clear that everyone knew that the problem
lies with Justin Fields. Now. The reality is, Jude, if
you watch the Jets play, you know the quarterback play
needs to be better. You know that the last three games,
probably at least Justin Fields has simply not been good enough.
Speaker 13 (15:18):
And he got pulled in the second half. So this
is not a surprise.
Speaker 12 (15:21):
You just rarely hear an owner come out and say
it so strongly. And so look, so if you're Aaron Glenn,
if you're Darren Moody the general manager, you took what
he's common yests you're like, OK, all right, Well it's
like the Alonso Morning meme. Right, So the Jets will
clearly do with the fallout as they weigh, or I
would say move toward a quarterback change.
Speaker 13 (15:42):
That was not the only thing going on here.
Speaker 12 (15:44):
Also NFL league meetings, where it certainly seems some of
the discussion revolved around the kickoff and the playing surfaces,
and I think, you know, we'll stick right there with
the Jets. We learned a little bit yesterday about what
the league thinks about the met Life turf, essentially saying
that it's safer than anyone.
Speaker 11 (16:02):
One of the safest playing surfaces in the entire league,
which I think runs counter to what most players and
fans think about met Life. They also are thrilled you
mentioned that dynamic kickoffs.
Speaker 8 (16:11):
They're thrilled with the results.
Speaker 11 (16:12):
Kickoff returns are at seventy eight percent, which is way
up from in the thirty percentile last year. They're still
concerned that they're just not getting anything out of the
on side kit and nobody is doing it, nobody's recovering it.
Troy Vincent, who oversees football operations for the NFL, said
he told ownership yesterday you might have to start thinking
about really radical solutions here, including things that have been
(16:35):
proposed in the past, like instead of having an on
side kick, you could opt to go for a fourth
down and fifteen play. That is certainly outside the box.
It was roundly rejected when it has been brought up
in the past, but something that the league clearly thinks
they should revisit. We're gonna hear from Roger Goodell later
on today.
Speaker 12 (16:52):
Yeah, I'm fascinating to see how much traction that actually gets.
Speaker 13 (16:56):
It's of course ridiculous, but like you would.
Speaker 12 (16:57):
Have thought that dynamic kickoff was all ridicuous too, and
that's been incredible success. So it's like once you open
your brain to new ideas, who knows what can go
in there. Anyway, I also talked about potentially narrowing the
uprights for the field goals, just considering how successful long
range kickers have been. So certainly a little bit guys,
as we send it back to you to look forward
to and try to figure out where the game goes
(17:20):
from here.
Speaker 9 (17:23):
I'm sorry we had the MIC's closed.
Speaker 5 (17:24):
You should have heard Kyle Brandt's commentary through all of that.
Speaker 9 (17:27):
The fourth and fifteen not in favor of it. Then
narrowing the uprights. Wow, like the track was unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I can't tell if Ian is actually when you said
here the uprights, I'm like, that's a real thing. Like
Ian's not making it's that's like David Busters, are we
gonna move it too?
Speaker 4 (17:42):
That we're in a radical time right now? Guys, It's unbelievable,
it's possible.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
I also mean what you do the day the philosophical Yeah, dude, that's.
Speaker 11 (17:51):
Once you do the fourth and fifth. I mean, once
you do a dynamic kickoff and completely reshape the kickoff,
like everything is on the table, like fourth and fifteen
is not really in your mind?
Speaker 13 (18:01):
Open your mind.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
I'm trying well.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
I Ian was taking a philosophical He says, open your mind.
Who knows what's going to creep in there? That's a
great perspective. If I'll be back there in a couple
of hours.
Speaker 13 (18:11):
Got some business then I saw that, so saved.
Speaker 9 (18:14):
By seat please.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
And.
Speaker 13 (18:17):
Mike's coming back.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
It's coming back.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
Yeah, I'm coming back.
Speaker 8 (18:20):
I'll have a tie on to throw.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
And Ian we're with me.
Speaker 5 (18:25):
Judy and Ian were with me yesterday the Art McNally
Game Day Central, which is at three forty five part.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
What is that?
Speaker 5 (18:30):
That is the replay room where all the replays happened.
They allowed us in yesterday to speak with Mark Butterworth there.
I mean that was so Ian got to one of
the stations for one of the games. There, I said,
after further, if you shouldn't warn that jacket that is
Henry Winkler, also known as the Fawns There, great jacket,
but it was it was enlightening. Now we'd love to
(18:52):
see it in action, but they don't let anybody in
on game day.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
And it is a room. It is very packed.
Speaker 5 (18:58):
There's a lot of action there and it is incredible
to see how much is at their fingertips to make
it happen so quickly. I mean, you're watching the game,
replay Assist happens as a team, as let's say, rushing
up to the ball, as a coach is getting ready
to throw a challenge flag, replay Assist has already made
it happen. And it is unbelievable to see that room,
to see what can happen in that room. And with
(19:19):
all the advancements in replay, coaches challenges now.
Speaker 9 (19:23):
Are that much more successful.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
I think they said it was ten percent more successful
I getting in off the screant, and I'm about ten
percent more successful.
Speaker 9 (19:30):
So they continue to work on that.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Mark Butterworth, who is the vice president of replay Training
and Development, was never an official himself, just came up
just via the replay system. They have really continued to
fine tune that. Perry Fuel who's also an NFL executive
player and handles the officiating in the room as well.
Speaker 9 (19:47):
Fascinating look at that.
Speaker 5 (19:48):
I would love to be in there on game day
at some point one day, but I think I'm going
to have to basically be a replay a system to
make that happen, So.
Speaker 9 (19:53):
That'll be my next career.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
I was waiting to see if Kyle's face was still
the same that he had from that.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
I got things to talk about.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
You hung your face like that for so long, guys.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Here are the topics for wyboard Wednesday clocket screencap it
put it out there. We're talking about a vow we're
going to make to a team who wants to do
what and what makes.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
You haha laugh out loud, Kyle? What else we got?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
I'm just looking at all for one and I swear please,
I don't know our co worker Brandon Graham is coming
out of retirement. He was on the show yesterday and
Good Morning Football over time. What other player recently retired
do you want to see coming out of the dressing
room WWE style.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Get back in the ring, pick anyone you want.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Whiteboard Wednesday next, don't go anywhere.
Speaker 8 (20:36):
I swear no Good Morning Football.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Click in whiteboard Wednesday time.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
I have to throw up some sound from yesterday about
Kyle pointing out a certain Seahawks fan that wasn't very
happy with us. Good thing we have because Manti's at
our class right now.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
A couple of science I received a message last week,
my friends, from a loyal viewer of the show named Cassie.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
I'm going to read it to you right now. This
is someone who watches the show.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Bring it up, and.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
I'm going to read this verbatim because it's kind of
like a comment box.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
I watch UMFB every day and half for several years.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Your coverage of my team is deplorable and disappointing. I
am a Seahawks fan, and you guys almost never cover
them even when they have a great game, and they're
just rarely talked about. I was surprised to even see
them in a few of your predictions for possible Super
Bowl contenders.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
But Kyle, a little coverage would be nice.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Come on, throw us a bone every now and then.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
Double exclamation point.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Cassie, we gave you three bonus minutes individually on the
Seahawks yesterday.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Let's lean into this.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Theme though, Manti, Mike g and Kyle pick a seam
that you vow and dive.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
Out talk about more, and I vow to talk about
the hood Ats.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
I will talk more about the Saints this and it's
lossing to call.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Myself a Saints but I think that Spencer Rattler has
been playing very, very well. Obviously, there's a lot of
room about Alvin Kamara and will he beat in New
Orleans or not. I hope that he stays in New
Orleans because he's one of those pillars in the community
that I love to see in who that uniform. So
to Kb's point, why would I want to talk about
(22:17):
the Saints Because I love the Saints. I am a
Saint and I hope that the next few days when.
Speaker 8 (22:24):
We win some games. So I got to who that's anty.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I'm not going to tell you the votes that were
going down in my ear Mike, you you continue.
Speaker 9 (22:31):
Yeah, let's balance this one.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I'm gonna go hey, you go hey.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
Every time I draw the Colts logo reminds me of
that Wonder Year's episode where they're in Jim's class.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
If you have to year, nice, get up.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
We had a segment last week where we did our
top five and I put the Colts in there, like
somewhere around three or four or something like that.
Speaker 9 (22:48):
I said, they haven't beaten him.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
Look at the NFL this year, and that was the
point of the segment last here and there are no
great teams at some point, and they did beat in
my opinion, a good team on the road here in
the Chargers.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
At some point, I go, you know what, that's all
out the window.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
They're taking care of a lot of other teams aren't
taking care of business.
Speaker 9 (23:07):
Colts. I apologize.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
I vow I swear, which I still love the Minion's
version underwear of I swear. It's great, fantastic, But Colts,
I promise more of you.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
I'll just take it full circle, Jamie. It's right there,
still the Seahawks. It's still the Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Great record, great team, And when I was screaming about
that yesterday when we ran Cassie's email and we were
talking about the Seahawks. It goes out on social media
and there's two different responses. One just this the deliberate,
stubborn haters saying worst.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Five and two team ever worse five. I find you
can have your opinion.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
But then the other one that I didn't appreciate was
from Seahawks fans themselves saying, we don't want your support.
You're on the bandwagon. Now they won some games. Now
you're finally talking about them. Oh contrere, my friend. Let's
go back to NFL films in August September, before even
played a game. Roll the clip and the f C West,
(24:03):
NFC West. I see it over here, see a gold helmet.
I see a beautiful sterling blue helmet. Still feels like
the best buy color scheme.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
But that's okay.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
You know who I think is going to win the
NFC West.
Speaker 8 (24:13):
Would you like to know?
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Would you like to know? Boom the Seattle Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
I've got the Seahawks winning the West. The Seahawks ten
wins last year.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Yes, quarterback change, but I like.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
How they play defense. I'd like to run the ball.
This is not going to be a popular pick. I
know there are Niners fans wondering what drug I'm on
right now, just the.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Drug of football.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Let me tell you something that's not easy to do.
You look down at those helmets. There's some sterling, attractive
helmets in the NFC West. To look down at that
Niners gold and that Sean McVay rams, and to choose
the Seahawks.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
And I did it anyways, And if you.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Want to direct your rank or somewhere when I did it,
one person on this show goes, what and she's in
LA right now because I have the audacity to pick
the NFC West champion Seahawks.
Speaker 8 (24:56):
You gotta hit with the shrapnel on that one.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Jay.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Yeah, I have nothing to say to that. I really know.
And yes, you're right. What do you mean the fer
I don't want to You're right. I look down and
I put the Niners in. I think you know what
I'm having, like a blackout moment from when we made
our predictions.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Well done, Kyle.
Speaker 8 (25:14):
I know you.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Oftentimes say like, don't look back too much on predictions,
don't patch yourself.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
On the back. But I guess sometimes when it suits
yourself in a.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Segment, and it is an easily clippable moment. Do you
want to say anything else about how right you were
about any of your other predictions?
Speaker 8 (25:30):
No?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
No, the one I don't Jamie, the ones I don't
like to look back on. On the ones you mess up.
You ignore of those. Everybody makes terrible predictions. But if
you put yourself out there, you met any of us. Hell, yeah,
beats your chest a little bit, the bad ones. Forget those.
Speaker 8 (25:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I think my exast to whatever word what was? Because
thank you trying to make good TV in which I
learned from Kyle Brandt.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
So like what so dramatic, you know, I'm just point thanks.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Moving on yesterday, let's have another clip from the show Former.
This is so sad to put Former in front of it,
but it's good for the Eagles. Brandon Graham announced his unretirement,
announced his return to the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
He did on GMFB over time.
Speaker 14 (26:10):
I'm gonna appreciate even more so.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Of course I'm gonna be chirping. Of course, I'm gon.
Speaker 13 (26:15):
Our teammates, our teammates.
Speaker 14 (26:16):
Soon as that first player practice come, y'all thought this
was over, y'all thought I would finished. You know, y'all,
I can't wait to just you got to bring the
fun to a game that we love and it's fun
especially when you win in and man, we got winners
on this team, and I can't wait to just be
a part of the makeup of what they are already
been doing.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Okay, so we asked Meg.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
It's gonna take him a couple of weeks to ramp
up if you will. But there is a list of
players that filed their papers this summer or in the
past couple of years that you must have one that
you want to unretire to come and help a team
out this season.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Man, see your answer.
Speaker 8 (26:51):
I can't believe you're doing this.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Guys, I told you who I'm gonna talk about more guys.
Speaker 8 (26:55):
The Saints we need you, doll.
Speaker 7 (26:59):
I know BG got a little locker in another locker room.
This guy probably gonna statu your side there the stadium.
Speaker 8 (27:05):
And I don't know.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Drew has things with his right arm and his right shoulder. Drew,
just step up in a huddle. I don't care what
it is.
Speaker 8 (27:11):
Like.
Speaker 7 (27:11):
We need some faith, we need some belief, we need
some Just go lead the pregame huddle like you've done
for decades, like that's what we need.
Speaker 8 (27:18):
We need, we need to go back. We need Drew Brees.
Speaker 7 (27:20):
Back throwing the ball around the super Dome or the
Caesars Dome, whatever it's called nowadays.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
We just need this guy or whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
So what I heard you just say, Mantai is that
you vow to talk about a team.
Speaker 8 (27:31):
I'm going all in.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
And then you ask the guy who is a right
handed throwing quarterback who has shoulder and arm issues.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
On his right side to just step in the huddle.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
And that's what's going to make you talk about the
Just make sure we.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Understand the belief that this guy that the team has
in this guy.
Speaker 8 (27:46):
I think that was going to rally him out. I
don't know years, No guys, I just want to hoo.
That's to be really really good again.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
It was Ron Back Archie man into he can still
hawk it.
Speaker 8 (27:57):
We'll take them off. Go ahead, go ahead, And Mike.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
Did he have a stencil for there?
Speaker 4 (28:05):
I know massa Talenton guy.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
In many ways, this one's not going to be sexy,
although when we roll the videotape in a couple of seconds,
you're going to see some sexy Michael Pierce with the
Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Definitely not sexy, Michael Raven.
Speaker 9 (28:19):
Uh no, you want to see sexy? Here comes out?
Is this the play?
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Right? Get what he's back of the news.
Speaker 5 (28:24):
Yeah, they're rough, so you know, falling under three hundred
and fifty of defensive tackle. The Ravens lost I'm the
Matabikee for the season earlier this year with a neck injury,
and that has been an enormous loss for that team
and that defensive front. You could plug in three hundred
and fifty five pounds of pick six or no big
Man maybe interception.
Speaker 9 (28:45):
I believe this is it right here, Yes, there it
is now.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
I wanted to see how far he was going to
take that thing.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
I ain't run it all that way. This is the best.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
Maybe if it was in plus territory, the Ravens could
absolutely use Michael Pierce. You know, Brandon Graham said last
year he didn't want to mess up the story book ending,
like we went out, we won the Super Bowl. I
feel like I need to rid Michael Pierce probably felt
like this is the story book ending for him, big man,
and is unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
He had a long way to go. He'd still be
running enough. Play Ah, that's a great answer, Mike. You
pulled it out all right.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Now we have already done thirty times more Saints talking
this segment that I should do this entire month. But
you're gonna see a name, and I don't want you
to think Saints. I'm gonna try to talk you out
of it. How about this guy, Derek Carr? Sat, Derek
Carr just up and leaves and he's got an injury,
but not the Saints, Derek Carr.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
I wanted to go back to the Raiders who could.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Really really Yes Raiders, Derek Carr.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Guys. I feel like Derek Carr was.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Supposed to have just this one playoff run, like where
he wins a game or two, and he was just
never gonna make it happen.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
He just walked away, and.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
He like he's looked at as this really nice guy
and this respected leader, and sure enough, like he leaves
the Saints and they owed him thirty million dollars that
he could have taken, and he's like, I don't want
to just take their money. I'm just gonna give it
what this unbelievable thing that's not talked about enough left
that on the table, and then he shows up and
he's doing broadcasts and he's naturally, he's funny, it's charismatic.
(30:09):
I just would like to see him one time in
January and make a run, especially for the Raiders when
it's all just gone to hell. Derek Carr, Like if
the glass broke and Derek Carr's music played and he
walked out on the field, I think people would go nuts.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
He's a Raider, true and true, but he's gone.
Speaker 8 (30:23):
He walked away at this.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Point the season, Kyle, you think if Derek Carr filed
the paperwork to come back in, you think that would
be the thing that writes the ship for the Raiders.
Then we can see him playing in January in that division.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Yeah, it's going to have.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
To take Derek Carr and David Carr and lots of
real car.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
I mean, it's just gonna take a lot.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
But also Derek Carry, I think is still rehabbing an
injury at Lord Carr wherever he is at Randon Carr,
all the cars, the car is the actual band.
Speaker 4 (30:48):
Would I play halftime?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Like all of that that extra spark This segment is
very entertaining. There's a couple of moments from the season
already that have been a laugh out loud funny, like
last week GWNN, Aaron Rodgers threw a touchdown pass to
Pat fryar Mood and it was all joyful and celebratory.
Worry even the older Rogers was skipping in celebration to
the sideline until he wasn't. His own offensive lineman Roderick
(31:11):
Jones took him down.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
That that's fine, yay, yay.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Tap him on the chest, let him get off the ground.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
See daylight, don't do this.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Don't do that.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Don't spoke about this moment.
Speaker 13 (31:23):
Take a listen.
Speaker 8 (31:25):
I'm still joking about it. Yeah, he was a little mad,
but sorry. You know, it's football.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
It gets intense, but you know it's still no love.
Speaker 15 (31:34):
Losses always. It's just the energy that he brings in
that I bring. He told me, don't lose the fire,
and I told him the same. So you know we
shall see on Sunday. Healthy throws another Touchdow don't want
to tackle him in the hand.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
I might tackle him again, Roderick, don't do that, Kyle said,
that was one of the funniest moments of the season.
Kyle's got a pretty good list over the last couple
of years on GMFB. I'm thinking of a Raiders play
again that tops the list.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
But from twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Man Tai, what's your funniest moment of the season so far?
Speaker 7 (32:02):
Funniest moment is when Jared got off trying to jump
into the stands and he needed some assistance.
Speaker 8 (32:08):
Guys, you know who the head coach is for the.
Speaker 7 (32:10):
For the Detroit Lions, Ye, Dan Campbell where he was
the Saints.
Speaker 4 (32:15):
Here.
Speaker 8 (32:15):
I got Jared Golf trying to get helped to the stands.
Help my man, Now help the Saints.
Speaker 4 (32:21):
Dan Campbell.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
I feel like I can hear the noises that Golf
was making trying to get there.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
He's like, oh, guys, help me.
Speaker 8 (32:27):
Help me, help me, help me, guys, I'm not a monro.
Saint bron pulled me into the stands. We had that
family on our.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
Shoul a little bit after that moment, so that would
be one of the funniest moments so far.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
All right, before I show it, it's a peach emoji,
just to be clear, Yes, nice to me. It was
Jalen Hurts Chris Jones going back and forth at the
end of the game as the Eagles. We're kneeling down.
Shut your peach emoji up. Roll the videotape. Yeah, I
(32:57):
don't think we even ran a little caption there. Definitely
said it, though it was Chris Jones who was appleplectic, like,
you guys didn't even read for one hundred yards and
you're gonna win. He sort of almost was talking to himself,
and Jalen Hurts is like, we.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
Won the bleeping game.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
Shut you bleep up, takes a snap on a knee.
Speaker 9 (33:14):
I thought it was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
All of us have that energy when Manti talks about
the Saints, where like.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
Oh yeah, here we go again. Listen, we're seven We're
seven games in.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
We've seen a lot of amusing things, We've seen a
lot of entertaining things, and there is still nothing that's
made me. It's still Broderick Jones blindsiding Rogers. This is
an unbelievably funny thing.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
And let me give it a little context.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Okay, Roderick Jones is the left tackle. Literally, his job
is to protect Aaron Rodgers' backside, and he blindsides him.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
More context.
Speaker 8 (33:42):
In this game.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Against the Bengals, Aaron Rodgers was not sacked once in
the prior game for the Steelers, Aaron.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
Rodgers was not sacked once.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
He has not been getting hit until his own guy
at way over three bills takes him down. I have
a relatable thing where every time I go to the
grocery store, my son likes to push the cart.
Speaker 8 (34:02):
It's a little fun to thrill for an.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Eleven year old to push the cart, and I'll be
looking the shelves and I'll be doing this and doing this. Inevitably,
he rams the cart into the back of my achilles tendon,
right where that lower shelf thing is.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
And I react, just like Rogers right here, Yeah, what.
Speaker 8 (34:18):
Are you doing?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
And I'm down on one knee in Aisle five at
the grocery store. And he's like, oh, sorry, sorry, it
happened last time, It'll happen next time. That is how
it feels when you're tackled. Tackles you. And by the way,
in this moment of pure jubilation, it says, if I
had just left the deli counter with like free salami
and was eating, I'm going He's coborting to the sideline
at forty one years old, about to be embraced by
(34:40):
his sidelight and then oh down. Imagine I mean, I
hate David put this. What if Rogers was injured in
that play? Then it's like, can you imagine what if
that led to some sort of shoulder injury or something?
Thank god it didn't for Rogers is like, I'm forty one,
I was born in the early eighties. You know how
hard it is to stay alive in the NFL. I
got this guy jumping on my back. It's so funny.
(35:01):
And his reaction, I'm sure Rodgers's be like, yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
I was justiving him some crap.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Now, he was pissed, unbelievably mad, and I'm sure he
calmed down, But the fact that he was so mad
and the.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Path of Broden Jones was like, I thought it was funny.
I might do it again. Hilarious. I love that moment.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
That is a generational trauma that transcends all ages. Kyle,
you can't tell me that you did not do that
to your own parents. Whoever was grocery shopping growing up?
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Okay, good, Yes, the grocery carts haven't changed in fifty years.
There's still three good wheels and one crappy one that
spins like this. And I did it to my dad
and my grandson will do it to my son.
Speaker 5 (35:33):
They even have the ones where you put the items
in and it recognized them immediately. Still on that one
the wheels, Yeah, yeah, exactly what.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Jummy is the smartest cart you've ever sat?
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Yeah, I shopped in the future, Mike, Gie, you were
in a whole nother tax bracket.
Speaker 16 (35:48):
My man, it's time for what's your beef?
Speaker 3 (36:07):
Is that a by old trapper? Jamie? You're at training
camp in Miami.
Speaker 8 (36:11):
How is it?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
It's hot as hadies down here? It is one hundred
and five degrees. Let me show you the thermometer, Jamie.
It is the AFC title game. What's the energy like
out there?
Speaker 8 (36:22):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (36:22):
The tailgaters have been here since six am. Report conversation
starters are the bane of my existence. And I can
think of some friends on my show that also feel
this way. And I really have some beef today. After
the Rams played in London last weekend with Sean McVay
in particular, Sean Coach, we were so close to being
done with Crutch conversation starters, Crutch report starters.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
When it came to Team International travel, we had it made.
Thirty one teams were doing the same thing.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
They were leaving on Thursday night after a very nice practice,
the team shower, they grabbed.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
A little to go meal, They get on the team plane,
they fly overnight, they land, the.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Coach tries to keep them up because China is important
to beat jet lag. They practice, they frolic, they enjoy
the town, then they play the game.
Speaker 8 (37:10):
That was it.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
We were so.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Close to being done talking about team travel because once
everybody treated it the same, we could stop addressing it
until you went and did what you did the Raven
state in Baltimore or the Rams state in Baltimore all
last week to practice to enjoy charm City.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
It was novel. It was an incredible idea.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Then they get on the plane Friday night, lands Saturday
morning and did it work. You bet it did, because
the Rams played out.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Of their mind.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Not thirty hours after the team landed in London. And
now everybody and their mother is rethinking how they approach
international team travel. Everyone has an opinion about it. I,
for one, who have covered a lot of international games,
try to make myself stop making that the first thing
that I say when I see somebody at one of
those games, Wow, how are you how's your sleep?
Speaker 3 (37:56):
Oh man, it's been rough the first couple of nights.
Speaker 13 (37:59):
I don't care.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
I don't care how your sleep is.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Okay, coach, why did you have to do it to us?
Speaker 15 (38:04):
All right?
Speaker 2 (38:04):
So glad you played well? Thrilled Stafford. It really taught
us all lesson that mind over matter. When it comes
to the jet lag, it's like having bad food, poisoning
or a hangover. Sometimes you have to just go right
through it in order to succeed. I can't believe you
did it to us because we are just right back
into this conundrum of how do you do team travel,
and we, as a TV media obligation, are going to
(38:25):
have to keep talking about it. I can't believe you
did it to us. John, that's my beef for today.
Speaker 8 (38:29):
Good work, Jamis, thank you, good work.
Speaker 9 (38:31):
Hey, Jamy.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
I'm gonna start with she disappeared. I do have a
question for her, a follow up question. First of all,
the training camp one. If you're the one, because easily
we'll be out.
Speaker 8 (38:41):
Of five camp, don't do it, Mike.
Speaker 5 (38:42):
You're the person who's stationed in Green Bay and you go, boy,
it's hot here today. You know it's probably going to
be a topic at all the other places as well.
But Jamie, next year, next year, the NFL is going
to Australia. Now that's on a completely other side of
the globe. That's the first time that they're really encountering
that kind of travel.
Speaker 9 (39:01):
Would it be okay for the reporter.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
Assigned to that game to ask about international travel.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
When it's the first time set about a team. Yes,
because we are being introduced to.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
The concept and you know who's doing it, the Rams.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Okay, So we already know that Seaan McVay is going
to be the one Kyle who comes up with this
innovative way. But I implore people, make it interesting, make
it different, and.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
If it's not, don't cover it, don't do it.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
The NFL Way to Play Awards are fueled by Gatorade.
They were created to recognize and reward players who lead
by example using proper playing technique. This week, let's take
a closer look at a picture perfect tackle. Here is
five time Pro Bowl defensive back and current Executive vice
President of Football Operations for the NFL, Troy vincent I.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
Winner this week from the Philadelphia Eagles. Yep, that Georgia
Bulldog Nakobe Dean.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Wow Na, Kobe Dean comes flying in it gets a
tackle for loss.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Watch the Kobe track this ball carrier.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
I'm talking about downhel running through his target, eyes up,
head out, shoulder in wrapping the ball carrier taking to
the ground.
Speaker 8 (40:08):
Excellent play.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Play example.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
The NFL Foundation will award a five thousand dollars equipment
grant through USA Football to a youth or high school
program of Nikobe's choice, which I know will be important
to him since he holds his youth and people in
his community close to him. To learn more about the
NFL Way to Play, check out play Football dot NFL
dot com and we will announce another winner right here
next week. Mantai, you just had a geography lesson in
the commercial break.
Speaker 7 (40:33):
I was trying to see where Nikobe Dian was from.
He's from Mississippi. Where Mississippi's that is right next to Louisiana,
and what team plays in Louisiana.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
Let's go, he plays right next to Louisiana.
Speaker 13 (40:46):
The boot Let's go.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
Has been.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
Listen.
Speaker 1 (40:55):
I know the Irish saying exactly winning a national title
this year, so you got to go to some other teams.
Speaker 9 (40:59):
But come on, let's.
Speaker 8 (41:00):
Start Kelly, Brian Kelly's l s U. You know where
L s U is?
Speaker 4 (41:05):
That car Louisiana.
Speaker 9 (41:07):
Who is your ball?
Speaker 2 (41:12):
You opened up the can of worms by asking us
to talk about other teams.
Speaker 8 (41:18):
Bobby Lee is also in Louisiana.
Speaker 13 (41:21):
Are just leaving
Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in
partnership with iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
It's Good Morning Football everybody percented by Old Trapper, Beef, Turkey, Busy,
the Little Wednesday we have on October twenty second Jamie
eard All mant Iao.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Here in Los Angeles. Kyle Brant is.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Joined by Mike Garrafalo in New York City. And Kyle,
it's not like we want to keep seeing the back
page of the New York newspapers. The headlines and the
topics and the questions just keep writing themselves when you
have teams, both teams saying.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Some things that we got to get into.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Well, the bus stops here. We have Woody Johnson. The
buck stops here. Woody throws fields under it while praising
winless Glenn.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
It's Jets talk.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
The only winless team in the NFL is the back
page of the post. And yet, Jamie, I think we're
starting talking about another team.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
In you what I'm saying, That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
We're going to get into it. All thirty two represented
of GMFB.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
I think we promised that we'll be right there.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Welcome to Good Morning Football, presented by Bold Trapper. Yeah,
that's right, GMFB, everybody, Jamie, Manti, Mike g and Kyle.
It's the Fall League meeting happening in the NFL as well,
which means people of prominence across the league are arriving there.
Mike Ge, you were at the Fall League meeting yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
What's the tone, what's the vibe? What's happening there?
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Kind of a quiet meeting, but there's always news, there's
always stuff to be discussed. I believe we're laying the
groundwork at this meeting for what's going to happen in
the spring, at the annual meeting where they vote on
rules changes. And I think you're going to see the
touch push Apple. We'll get into that a little bit later.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Oh indeed we will.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
We'll talk about who the Eagles are playing this week,
and with that, somehow we are going to set the
table with the Broncos. Wild and historic comeback win for
the Denver Broncos, However, that was not enough for them
to take down the Giants.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Single handedly in the fourth quarter on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Instead, they're head coach Sean Payton with the media and
praise the valiant effort from their rookie quarterback, not the
Broncos second year quarterback the Giants rooky quarterback Jackson Dart,
and he even took a little dig at Dart's backup,
former Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
I have a ton of respect for that organization. I
spent four of my early years there coordinating Super Bowl
first game in this stadium before nine to eleven close
with the Mary Tish family, and you know, they found
a little spark with that quarterback. I was talking to
John mayeror not too long ago, and I said, we
(02:39):
were hoping that that change would have happened long long
after our game.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I mean, okay, so these two have history. Keep in
mind Wilson. Russell Wilson spent two years in Denver, which
includes the twenty twenty three season playing for Sean Payton,
and he responds to this apparent shade by saying classless,
but not surprised.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Then we get into the heavyheading stuff pun intended.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Didn't realize You're still bounty hunting fifteen plus years later
through the media hashtag with lots of emojis in between that,
let's ride.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I always like to say, a gi me, Peter.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
There's some things that just make us all cackle and
like want to be at the table just a couple
of minutes into the top of the show. I'm sure
we all have things to say about this. Particularly I
will start though with man Ti Teo, as you played
for Sean Payton, and I'm sure you know Russell.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Can you begin to unpack this back and forth forth?
Speaker 7 (03:30):
Yes, So I do have history with Sean Payton, and
I do empathize with Russell Wilson to a certain degree
because when Russell Wilson did play for the Denver Broncles,
we saw a lot of the antics on the sideline
where Sean Payton would be getting on them. I've been
on the receiving end of some of those, and I
know exactly what was being said or the types of
things that were being said. Why, because they're being said
(03:51):
to me. Now with that being said, when I hear
Sean Payton say those words, I'm sorry, guys, I don't
see where the jab is.
Speaker 8 (03:59):
I don't.
Speaker 7 (04:00):
And again this is coming from somebody who I know, Sean.
Speaker 8 (04:04):
Payne, and I know how direct it can be. Yes,
And I know some.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
Of the choice words that he can use to somebody
in those type of exchanges. I don't see where the
job is. I see somebody who's praising a quarterback. I
see somebody who's speaking truth as to the spark at
which Jackson Dart has been able to provide for the
New York Giants.
Speaker 8 (04:28):
I said it on this show.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
That he has there's a different feel with Jackson Dart
and that even when Russell Wilson was in there, that
I think there's some change that needs to happen. And
remember I brought up the lighter situation, like it's like
there's a lighter that you keep outside and there's a
lighter that's insight that can help. Like I said that,
was I taking a job at Russell Wilson.
Speaker 8 (04:47):
No, I wasn't. I was just saying that Jackson.
Speaker 7 (04:50):
Dart is a young quarterback that has a skill set
that fits.
Speaker 8 (04:53):
What Brian Dabo and the New York Giants are trying
to do. So I don't know.
Speaker 7 (04:58):
I may be different, but because of my experiences with
Sean Payne and because I can see this through both lenses,
I don't see where the jab is marching.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
I do know where it is, and man, I tell
you and I can watch it together after the tell
don't run it again, we've already seen it for the
last couple of days.
Speaker 9 (05:15):
But there's a moment in there. It's a little pause.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
You gotta look for it, and you gotta listen for it.
Because you listen for it. It's that silence and that
pause and that look in Sean Payton's eyes where he goes,
I'm gonna give a sixty percent compliment to Jackson Darton,
and the other forty percent is going to be a
slap back at Russ.
Speaker 9 (05:31):
I mean, you got to like, at some point look.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
At it and go for me to get Russell Wilson,
of all people, not just the fireback, but to fire
back publicly, to put it out on social media. Between
the Nathaniel Hackett thing and the Russell Wilson thing and
Chun Payton exercising the demons of the last couple of
years in his mind, it's sort of like that scene
in Billy Madison where he's playing dodgeball with the kids.
Speaker 9 (05:56):
You know, now you're all in big, big trouble.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I thought it was Fatick taking it off the list,
his name on the list, first of all. I thought
the hashtag let it Ride was funny. I was amused
by that it's self deprecating a reference.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
Yes, I would have pared down the emojis a little bit.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
It takes the impact out of we don't need all
the like cry laughing emojis. I was surprised by the tweet.
I think a lot of people I was. I was
also a little confused. So Russ tweets this Tuesday night
over two days prior, over forty eight hours prior.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Sean Payton seemingly inferred.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
That he would have rather have played Russell Wilson than
Jackson Dart. Like Sean Payton, if he wants to take
a shot at you, I think he's taking it across
the bridge of the nose, like it is just.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Going to be full on an attack.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
It is not going to have to parse words and
take pauses all. Also for Russ, I feel like, just socially,
reputation wise, it's punching down. I thought Sean Payton is
a rogue. He is a pirate, is just what he does.
Russell Wilson off the field is a saint. He's the
Walter Payton Man of the Year. Did Russ write this?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Was this actually him? Is this someone on his team
around him? Russell Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Social media is like it's Bible versus and it's photos
of children's hospital visits. It's all incredibly wholesome things. And
now he's bringing up pain players to knock other players
out of the game by a decade and a half ago,
it just doesn't seem like something he would do. And
then I'm not to mention now like now the Giants
are about Russell Wilson. Yesterday's New York Post had a
(07:30):
whole story about Jackson Dart's moxie and cunning in the
face of all the adversity in the Denver game, and
now it's about like the backup quarterback is taking shots
at his old coach about something that happened a decade
and a half ago. There's a take that's like, you know,
good for us, stand up for himself, and that's fine.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Like I'm not being petty about this.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I just I felt, like russ said off the field,
on the field has not gone great recently. Off the field,
he has such dignity and such gravitas. And to just
circle back two days later to try to trade blows
with your old coach about.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Bounty stuff, I don't know. It's very surprising, very very surprising.
Speaker 7 (08:05):
Uh, that's a great point, KB, And this is what
I just asked Jamie. Was that game happened on Sunday?
When did he put out the tweet? She told me,
when he put out the tweet. We didn't even cover
this yesterday. This wasn't a thing yesterday until the tweet
came out. And so for us, it's like you took
maybe something that was a statement that may not have
(08:26):
been directed at you, and then perfectly directed it at you,
and it was just like, this wasn't even a situation.
We just had a whole show yesterday or the past
two days, and we didn't even talk about this, and
then the tweet comes out and now we're talking about that.
So that's that goes to back what I goes back
to what.
Speaker 8 (08:42):
I was saying.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
I do now see what Mike g was was referencing
that little pause.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
In there again, let's press the up. I want to
see it. Let's go.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
I have a ton of respect for that organization. I
spent four in my early years there coordinating Super Bowl
first game in this stadium before nine to eleven, close
with the Marritish family, and you know, they found a
little spark with that quarterback. I was talking to John
Mayor not too long ago, and I said, we were
hoping that that change would have happened long long after
(09:17):
our game.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Yeah, I kind of.
Speaker 9 (09:21):
With Mike Wheels their territory.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
I'm kind of now he's you see him, he's he's
cruising and cruising and coach mode, and then.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
He satan and then he and then he.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Starts thinking and concocting, and he makes sure to say,
you know, I was talking with the owner over there,
and I was telling him there's definitely something.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
But I think Samantha's point. I don't really know if
anybody realized that at the time that.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Wasn't There was so much we were talking about coming
out of Broncos Giants like it was one the craziest
game of the year. Yeah, no one was like, ooh,
did you see what Sean Payton kind of said in
that press conference until now right.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
Yeah, Russ made sure it happened.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
You talked about his social media feed. If you look
at his account on x it's him at the hospital.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
It's beautiful.
Speaker 5 (10:00):
Then on October nineteenth, was three days ago. God, you
get all my praise hashtag great frightfulness and then the
shot across the bow.
Speaker 9 (10:08):
It's weird on Peyton and then back to his visits
with the hospital and.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Uh no, three hours after this tweet, there's maybe maybe
maybe it's maybe it's art right, art imitates life type
of thing.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
Sean Payton's insult was wrapped in a compliment. It's kind
of like that when you just pull up his timeline
of his last four you know, so it's all this
great stuff and visiting the hospital and God and then.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Right there in the middle kind of rep It makes
me wish that the that the Giants were playing the
Steelers in a couple of weeks, so that if Mike
Tomlin were to say something about, yeah, you know, Jackson
darr has really given that team a left and then
he's like whoa like?
Speaker 4 (10:45):
And he comes back and goes after tom like who
was it?
Speaker 5 (10:48):
I think it was Dan Duggan who put out he
covers the Giants, and I think he had a record
Tomlin's ten there it is, yeah, Dan Duggan right here,
Mike Tomlin went ten and.
Speaker 9 (10:57):
Seven with the two quarterbacks who have gone oh to
nine in New York.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
This unbelievable.
Speaker 9 (11:01):
How about that? Yeah, that on the resume.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
All I can think of in the last seven minutes
since mants I first made his point was, first of all,
anyone that starts with you don't have a relationship with him.
You didn't say, oh, I played for the guy. You said,
I have history with Sean Payton. Immediately that carries weight
for me when you choose that word. Secondly, I'm like
mat tig, what did he say to you on the
sideline that You're just like, I know what he says,
but that's not how he talks.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
We'll talk offline.
Speaker 10 (11:26):
No, no, we could talk Allline let me know, James
h Roll. Okay, so I'll tell you. I'll tell you
what happened. So in twenty eighteen, I was with the
New Orleans Saints. So it's my second year with the
New Orleans Saints and I was a starter on the team,
the starting mike linebacker. We're about to play the La Rams,
and I remember, if anybody doesn't know the football work,
We've play on Sunday, film review, Monday, off Tuesday. Then
(11:47):
the first week of the first day of the week
is Wednesday. Wednesday, I'm starting Thursday, I'm starting Friday. Game
plan is pretty much done.
Speaker 7 (11:54):
Coach Mike Nolan, who is my linebacker coach at that time,
comes up to me after the team meeting.
Speaker 8 (11:58):
He say, coach wants to see you in the hallway.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
Says, all right, So I go to the hallway and
that's when coach Sean Payton says, hey, listend to numbers.
We're gonna You're going to be inactive this week. He's like,
but be ready next week. I was like, well, why
am I inactive? He's like, well, you're just not going
to play, so our I'll be ready next week. Guys,
that happened for eight weeks straight. I was inactive. I
was told to be ready, then Friday told you're inactive.
Like imagine that for eight weeks, eight weeks straight. So
(12:21):
I had my beefs with Sean Payton. So with all
of that being said, I can tell you to what
KB said is if coach wants to take a shot
at you, he's going to take a shot at you,
and you're going to know it, and he's going to
tell you personally and let everybody else know what how
he feels about you. So I'm not saying that he's
a saint. I'm not saying that he's an angel. But
what I am saying is when I hear those words
(12:41):
from Sean Payton, Sean Payne isn't talking cold, you know, and.
Speaker 8 (12:45):
So when he's going to tell you exactly how he feels.
Speaker 7 (12:47):
And for somebody who knows how he felt about myself,
I don't see.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Where the shot wasn't in those remarks.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
I just I'm wondering. You know what I'm thinking about
this morning.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Think about Justin Fields, who's like, oh, his ex coach
kind of said that maybe the team is better with
the rookie.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
My owner just said, I can't.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Complete a pass and I've been here for ten minutes, Like,
why are you.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Talking about that? We will?
Speaker 1 (13:11):
We will because the Jets nuking the quarterback was is
a thousand times more than the old coach that nuking
sort of hitting with a glove Russell was, that's nothing.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Justin Fields took like a warhead.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
What he walked up and said, I don't have much
to say, and then had a lot to say.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Oh, well done, everybody. The Giants, they have a lot
to look forward to. We're going to keep talking about
the teams in New York. They play the Eagles, moving
on we have to check in with the Fall League meeting.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
We mentioned at the top of the show.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Ian Rappaport and Judy Battista are there because we borrowed
Mike g for the day.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Listen, we just talked about it.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Jets owner Widdie Johnson on wavering support for the head
coach and Aaron Glenn despite the team's winless starts. What
can you make of what he had to say yesterday
in terms of his quarterback, the coach rap sheet and
all things Jets.
Speaker 11 (14:03):
Well, what is also the case at these meetings, it's
never what's on the agenda that makes the headlines. It's
always what happens always, and interestingly, Woody Johnson arrived here
and said like, I don't really have any comment to make,
and then he proceeded to make a whole lot of comments.
He basically blames the issues with the New York Jets
on the quarterback justin fields. He said, if we could
(14:23):
just complete a pass, that would look good. As they
ponder who they're going to start at quarterback this week,
he definitely still supports Aaron Glenn. He feels that he
is the guy who can fix it. He called it
the real deal. He actually pointed to the improvement in
the defense over the last few weeks as evidence that
Aaron Glenn is capable of fixing things Ian But certainly
(14:43):
it was startling to hear an owner speak in such
blunt terms about the starting quarterback of his team.
Speaker 12 (14:51):
Yeah, and you know, I understand what he Johnson was
trying to do was trying to show Aaron Glenn that
he's got his back.
Speaker 13 (14:56):
I was trying to.
Speaker 12 (14:57):
Hug him, as he says he does daily, to tell
him that there is hope, he's got support, all of
the good things in the organization. But to do that,
he really made clear that everyone knew that the problem
lies with Justin Fields. Now. The reality is, Jude, if
you watch the Jets play, you know the quarterback play
needs to be better. You know that the last three games,
probably at least Justin Fields has simply not been good enough.
Speaker 13 (15:18):
And he got pulled in the second half. So this
is not a surprise.
Speaker 12 (15:21):
You just rarely hear an owner come out and say
it so strongly. And so look, so if you're Aaron Glenn,
if you're Darren Moody the general manager, you took what
he's common yests you're like, OK, all right, Well it's
like the Alonso Morning meme. Right, So the Jets will
clearly do with the fallout as they weigh, or I
would say move toward a quarterback change.
Speaker 13 (15:42):
That was not the only thing going on here.
Speaker 12 (15:44):
Also NFL league meetings, where it certainly seems some of
the discussion revolved around the kickoff and the playing surfaces,
and I think, you know, we'll stick right there with
the Jets. We learned a little bit yesterday about what
the league thinks about the met Life turf, essentially saying
that it's safer than anyone.
Speaker 11 (16:02):
One of the safest playing surfaces in the entire league,
which I think runs counter to what most players and
fans think about met Life. They also are thrilled you
mentioned that dynamic kickoffs.
Speaker 8 (16:11):
They're thrilled with the results.
Speaker 11 (16:12):
Kickoff returns are at seventy eight percent, which is way
up from in the thirty percentile last year. They're still
concerned that they're just not getting anything out of the
on side kit and nobody is doing it, nobody's recovering it.
Troy Vincent, who oversees football operations for the NFL, said
he told ownership yesterday you might have to start thinking
about really radical solutions here, including things that have been
(16:35):
proposed in the past, like instead of having an on
side kick, you could opt to go for a fourth
down and fifteen play. That is certainly outside the box.
It was roundly rejected when it has been brought up
in the past, but something that the league clearly thinks
they should revisit. We're gonna hear from Roger Goodell later
on today.
Speaker 12 (16:52):
Yeah, I'm fascinating to see how much traction that actually gets.
Speaker 13 (16:56):
It's of course ridiculous, but like you would.
Speaker 12 (16:57):
Have thought that dynamic kickoff was all ridicuous too, and
that's been incredible success. So it's like once you open
your brain to new ideas, who knows what can go
in there. Anyway, I also talked about potentially narrowing the
uprights for the field goals, just considering how successful long
range kickers have been. So certainly a little bit guys,
as we send it back to you to look forward
to and try to figure out where the game goes
(17:20):
from here.
Speaker 9 (17:23):
I'm sorry we had the MIC's closed.
Speaker 5 (17:24):
You should have heard Kyle Brandt's commentary through all of that.
Speaker 9 (17:27):
The fourth and fifteen not in favor of it. Then
narrowing the uprights. Wow, like the track was unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
I can't tell if Ian is actually when you said
here the uprights, I'm like, that's a real thing. Like
Ian's not making it's that's like David Busters, are we
gonna move it too?
Speaker 4 (17:42):
That we're in a radical time right now? Guys, It's unbelievable,
it's possible.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
I also mean what you do the day the philosophical Yeah, dude, that's.
Speaker 11 (17:51):
Once you do the fourth and fifth. I mean, once
you do a dynamic kickoff and completely reshape the kickoff,
like everything is on the table, like fourth and fifteen
is not really in your mind?
Speaker 13 (18:01):
Open your mind.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
I'm trying well.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
I Ian was taking a philosophical He says, open your mind.
Who knows what's going to creep in there? That's a
great perspective. If I'll be back there in a couple
of hours.
Speaker 13 (18:11):
Got some business then I saw that, so saved.
Speaker 9 (18:14):
By seat please.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
And.
Speaker 13 (18:17):
Mike's coming back.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
It's coming back.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
Yeah, I'm coming back.
Speaker 8 (18:20):
I'll have a tie on to throw.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
And Ian we're with me.
Speaker 5 (18:25):
Judy and Ian were with me yesterday the Art McNally
Game Day Central, which is at three forty five part.
Speaker 4 (18:30):
What is that?
Speaker 5 (18:30):
That is the replay room where all the replays happened.
They allowed us in yesterday to speak with Mark Butterworth there.
I mean that was so Ian got to one of
the stations for one of the games. There, I said,
after further, if you shouldn't warn that jacket that is
Henry Winkler, also known as the Fawns There, great jacket,
but it was it was enlightening. Now we'd love to
(18:52):
see it in action, but they don't let anybody in
on game day.
Speaker 9 (18:55):
And it is a room. It is very packed.
Speaker 5 (18:58):
There's a lot of action there and it is incredible
to see how much is at their fingertips to make
it happen so quickly. I mean, you're watching the game,
replay Assist happens as a team, as let's say, rushing
up to the ball, as a coach is getting ready
to throw a challenge flag, replay Assist has already made
it happen. And it is unbelievable to see that room,
to see what can happen in that room. And with
(19:19):
all the advancements in replay, coaches challenges now.
Speaker 9 (19:23):
Are that much more successful.
Speaker 5 (19:24):
I think they said it was ten percent more successful
I getting in off the screant, and I'm about ten
percent more successful.
Speaker 9 (19:30):
So they continue to work on that.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Mark Butterworth, who is the vice president of replay Training
and Development, was never an official himself, just came up
just via the replay system. They have really continued to
fine tune that. Perry Fuel who's also an NFL executive
player and handles the officiating in the room as well.
Speaker 9 (19:47):
Fascinating look at that.
Speaker 5 (19:48):
I would love to be in there on game day
at some point one day, but I think I'm going
to have to basically be a replay a system to
make that happen, So.
Speaker 9 (19:53):
That'll be my next career.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
I was waiting to see if Kyle's face was still
the same that he had from that.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
I got things to talk about.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
You hung your face like that for so long, guys.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Here are the topics for wyboard Wednesday clocket screencap it
put it out there. We're talking about a vow we're
going to make to a team who wants to do
what and what makes.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
You haha laugh out loud, Kyle? What else we got?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
I'm just looking at all for one and I swear please,
I don't know our co worker Brandon Graham is coming
out of retirement. He was on the show yesterday and
Good Morning Football over time. What other player recently retired
do you want to see coming out of the dressing
room WWE style.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Get back in the ring, pick anyone you want.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Whiteboard Wednesday next, don't go anywhere.
Speaker 8 (20:36):
I swear no Good Morning Football.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Click in whiteboard Wednesday time.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
I have to throw up some sound from yesterday about
Kyle pointing out a certain Seahawks fan that wasn't very
happy with us. Good thing we have because Manti's at
our class right now.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
A couple of science I received a message last week,
my friends, from a loyal viewer of the show named Cassie.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
I'm going to read it to you right now. This
is someone who watches the show.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Bring it up, and.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
I'm going to read this verbatim because it's kind of
like a comment box.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
I watch UMFB every day and half for several years.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Your coverage of my team is deplorable and disappointing. I
am a Seahawks fan, and you guys almost never cover
them even when they have a great game, and they're
just rarely talked about. I was surprised to even see
them in a few of your predictions for possible Super
Bowl contenders.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
But Kyle, a little coverage would be nice.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Come on, throw us a bone every now and then.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
Double exclamation point.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Cassie, we gave you three bonus minutes individually on the
Seahawks yesterday.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Let's lean into this.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Theme though, Manti, Mike g and Kyle pick a seam
that you vow and dive.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
Out talk about more, and I vow to talk about
the hood Ats.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
I will talk more about the Saints this and it's
lossing to call.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Myself a Saints but I think that Spencer Rattler has
been playing very, very well. Obviously, there's a lot of
room about Alvin Kamara and will he beat in New
Orleans or not. I hope that he stays in New
Orleans because he's one of those pillars in the community
that I love to see in who that uniform. So
to Kb's point, why would I want to talk about
(22:17):
the Saints Because I love the Saints. I am a
Saint and I hope that the next few days when.
Speaker 8 (22:24):
We win some games. So I got to who that's anty.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I'm not going to tell you the votes that were
going down in my ear Mike, you you continue.
Speaker 9 (22:31):
Yeah, let's balance this one.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
I'm gonna go hey, you go hey.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
Every time I draw the Colts logo reminds me of
that Wonder Year's episode where they're in Jim's class.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
If you have to year, nice, get up.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
We had a segment last week where we did our
top five and I put the Colts in there, like
somewhere around three or four or something like that.
Speaker 9 (22:48):
I said, they haven't beaten him.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
Look at the NFL this year, and that was the
point of the segment last here and there are no
great teams at some point, and they did beat in
my opinion, a good team on the road here in
the Chargers.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
At some point, I go, you know what, that's all
out the window.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
They're taking care of a lot of other teams aren't
taking care of business.
Speaker 9 (23:07):
Colts. I apologize.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
I vow I swear, which I still love the Minion's
version underwear of I swear. It's great, fantastic, But Colts,
I promise more of you.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
I'll just take it full circle, Jamie. It's right there,
still the Seahawks. It's still the Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Great record, great team, And when I was screaming about
that yesterday when we ran Cassie's email and we were
talking about the Seahawks. It goes out on social media
and there's two different responses. One just this the deliberate,
stubborn haters saying worst.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Five and two team ever worse five. I find you
can have your opinion.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
But then the other one that I didn't appreciate was
from Seahawks fans themselves saying, we don't want your support.
You're on the bandwagon. Now they won some games. Now
you're finally talking about them. Oh contrere, my friend. Let's
go back to NFL films in August September, before even
played a game. Roll the clip and the f C West,
(24:03):
NFC West. I see it over here, see a gold helmet.
I see a beautiful sterling blue helmet. Still feels like
the best buy color scheme.
Speaker 8 (24:10):
But that's okay.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
You know who I think is going to win the
NFC West.
Speaker 8 (24:13):
Would you like to know?
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Would you like to know? Boom the Seattle Seahawks.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
I've got the Seahawks winning the West. The Seahawks ten
wins last year.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Yes, quarterback change, but I like.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
How they play defense. I'd like to run the ball.
This is not going to be a popular pick. I
know there are Niners fans wondering what drug I'm on
right now, just the.
Speaker 4 (24:33):
Drug of football.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Let me tell you something that's not easy to do.
You look down at those helmets. There's some sterling, attractive
helmets in the NFC West. To look down at that
Niners gold and that Sean McVay rams, and to choose
the Seahawks.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
And I did it anyways, And if you.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Want to direct your rank or somewhere when I did it,
one person on this show goes, what and she's in
LA right now because I have the audacity to pick
the NFC West champion Seahawks.
Speaker 8 (24:56):
You gotta hit with the shrapnel on that one.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Jay.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Yeah, I have nothing to say to that. I really know.
And yes, you're right. What do you mean the fer
I don't want to You're right. I look down and
I put the Niners in. I think you know what
I'm having, like a blackout moment from when we made
our predictions.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Well done, Kyle.
Speaker 8 (25:14):
I know you.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Oftentimes say like, don't look back too much on predictions,
don't patch yourself.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
On the back. But I guess sometimes when it suits
yourself in a.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Segment, and it is an easily clippable moment. Do you
want to say anything else about how right you were
about any of your other predictions?
Speaker 8 (25:30):
No?
Speaker 1 (25:30):
No, the one I don't Jamie, the ones I don't
like to look back on. On the ones you mess up.
You ignore of those. Everybody makes terrible predictions. But if
you put yourself out there, you met any of us. Hell, yeah,
beats your chest a little bit, the bad ones. Forget those.
Speaker 8 (25:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I think my exast to whatever word what was? Because
thank you trying to make good TV in which I
learned from Kyle Brandt.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
So like what so dramatic, you know, I'm just point thanks.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Moving on yesterday, let's have another clip from the show Former.
This is so sad to put Former in front of it,
but it's good for the Eagles. Brandon Graham announced his unretirement,
announced his return to the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
He did on GMFB over time.
Speaker 14 (26:10):
I'm gonna appreciate even more so.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Of course I'm gonna be chirping. Of course, I'm gon.
Speaker 13 (26:15):
Our teammates, our teammates.
Speaker 14 (26:16):
Soon as that first player practice come, y'all thought this
was over, y'all thought I would finished. You know, y'all,
I can't wait to just you got to bring the
fun to a game that we love and it's fun
especially when you win in and man, we got winners
on this team, and I can't wait to just be
a part of the makeup of what they are already
been doing.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
Okay, so we asked Meg.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
It's gonna take him a couple of weeks to ramp
up if you will. But there is a list of
players that filed their papers this summer or in the
past couple of years that you must have one that
you want to unretire to come and help a team
out this season.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Man, see your answer.
Speaker 8 (26:51):
I can't believe you're doing this.
Speaker 7 (26:52):
Guys, I told you who I'm gonna talk about more guys.
Speaker 8 (26:55):
The Saints we need you, doll.
Speaker 7 (26:59):
I know BG got a little locker in another locker room.
This guy probably gonna statu your side there the stadium.
Speaker 8 (27:05):
And I don't know.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
Drew has things with his right arm and his right shoulder. Drew,
just step up in a huddle. I don't care what
it is.
Speaker 8 (27:11):
Like.
Speaker 7 (27:11):
We need some faith, we need some belief, we need
some Just go lead the pregame huddle like you've done
for decades, like that's what we need.
Speaker 8 (27:18):
We need, we need to go back. We need Drew Brees.
Speaker 7 (27:20):
Back throwing the ball around the super Dome or the
Caesars Dome, whatever it's called nowadays.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
We just need this guy or whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
So what I heard you just say, Mantai is that
you vow to talk about a team.
Speaker 8 (27:31):
I'm going all in.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
And then you ask the guy who is a right
handed throwing quarterback who has shoulder and arm issues.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
On his right side to just step in the huddle.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
And that's what's going to make you talk about the
Just make sure we.
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Understand the belief that this guy that the team has
in this guy.
Speaker 8 (27:46):
I think that was going to rally him out. I
don't know years, No guys, I just want to hoo.
That's to be really really good again.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
It was Ron Back Archie man into he can still
hawk it.
Speaker 8 (27:57):
We'll take them off. Go ahead, go ahead, And Mike.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
Did he have a stencil for there?
Speaker 4 (28:05):
I know massa Talenton guy.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
In many ways, this one's not going to be sexy,
although when we roll the videotape in a couple of seconds,
you're going to see some sexy Michael Pierce with the
Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Definitely not sexy, Michael Raven.
Speaker 9 (28:19):
Uh no, you want to see sexy? Here comes out?
Is this the play?
Speaker 4 (28:22):
Right? Get what he's back of the news.
Speaker 5 (28:24):
Yeah, they're rough, so you know, falling under three hundred
and fifty of defensive tackle. The Ravens lost I'm the
Matabikee for the season earlier this year with a neck injury,
and that has been an enormous loss for that team
and that defensive front. You could plug in three hundred
and fifty five pounds of pick six or no big
Man maybe interception.
Speaker 9 (28:45):
I believe this is it right here, Yes, there it
is now.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
I wanted to see how far he was going to
take that thing.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
I ain't run it all that way. This is the best.
Speaker 5 (28:54):
Maybe if it was in plus territory, the Ravens could
absolutely use Michael Pierce. You know, Brandon Graham said last
year he didn't want to mess up the story book ending,
like we went out, we won the Super Bowl. I
feel like I need to rid Michael Pierce probably felt
like this is the story book ending for him, big man,
and is unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
He had a long way to go. He'd still be
running enough. Play Ah, that's a great answer, Mike. You
pulled it out all right.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Now we have already done thirty times more Saints talking
this segment that I should do this entire month. But
you're gonna see a name, and I don't want you
to think Saints. I'm gonna try to talk you out
of it. How about this guy, Derek Carr? Sat, Derek
Carr just up and leaves and he's got an injury,
but not the Saints, Derek Carr.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
I wanted to go back to the Raiders who could.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Really really Yes Raiders, Derek Carr.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Guys. I feel like Derek Carr was.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Supposed to have just this one playoff run, like where
he wins a game or two, and he was just
never gonna make it happen.
Speaker 4 (29:47):
He just walked away, and.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
He like he's looked at as this really nice guy
and this respected leader, and sure enough, like he leaves
the Saints and they owed him thirty million dollars that
he could have taken, and he's like, I don't want
to just take their money. I'm just gonna give it
what this unbelievable thing that's not talked about enough left
that on the table, and then he shows up and
he's doing broadcasts and he's naturally, he's funny, it's charismatic.
(30:09):
I just would like to see him one time in
January and make a run, especially for the Raiders when
it's all just gone to hell. Derek Carr, Like if
the glass broke and Derek Carr's music played and he
walked out on the field, I think people would go nuts.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
He's a Raider, true and true, but he's gone.
Speaker 8 (30:23):
He walked away at this.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Point the season, Kyle, you think if Derek Carr filed
the paperwork to come back in, you think that would
be the thing that writes the ship for the Raiders.
Then we can see him playing in January in that division.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Yeah, it's going to have.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
To take Derek Carr and David Carr and lots of
real car.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
I mean, it's just gonna take a lot.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
But also Derek Carry, I think is still rehabbing an
injury at Lord Carr wherever he is at Randon Carr,
all the cars, the car is the actual band.
Speaker 4 (30:48):
Would I play halftime?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Like all of that that extra spark This segment is
very entertaining. There's a couple of moments from the season
already that have been a laugh out loud funny, like
last week GWNN, Aaron Rodgers threw a touchdown pass to
Pat fryar Mood and it was all joyful and celebratory.
Worry even the older Rogers was skipping in celebration to
the sideline until he wasn't. His own offensive lineman Roderick
(31:11):
Jones took him down.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
That that's fine, yay, yay.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Tap him on the chest, let him get off the ground.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
See daylight, don't do this.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Don't do that.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Don't spoke about this moment.
Speaker 13 (31:23):
Take a listen.
Speaker 8 (31:25):
I'm still joking about it. Yeah, he was a little mad,
but sorry. You know, it's football.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
It gets intense, but you know it's still no love.
Speaker 15 (31:34):
Losses always. It's just the energy that he brings in
that I bring. He told me, don't lose the fire,
and I told him the same. So you know we
shall see on Sunday. Healthy throws another Touchdow don't want
to tackle him in the hand.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
I might tackle him again, Roderick, don't do that, Kyle said,
that was one of the funniest moments of the season.
Kyle's got a pretty good list over the last couple
of years on GMFB. I'm thinking of a Raiders play
again that tops the list.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
But from twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Man Tai, what's your funniest moment of the season so far?
Speaker 7 (32:02):
Funniest moment is when Jared got off trying to jump
into the stands and he needed some assistance.
Speaker 8 (32:08):
Guys, you know who the head coach is for the.
Speaker 7 (32:10):
For the Detroit Lions, Ye, Dan Campbell where he was
the Saints.
Speaker 4 (32:15):
Here.
Speaker 8 (32:15):
I got Jared Golf trying to get helped to the stands.
Help my man, Now help the Saints.
Speaker 4 (32:21):
Dan Campbell.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
I feel like I can hear the noises that Golf
was making trying to get there.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
He's like, oh, guys, help me.
Speaker 8 (32:27):
Help me, help me, help me, guys, I'm not a monro.
Saint bron pulled me into the stands. We had that
family on our.
Speaker 7 (32:32):
Shoul a little bit after that moment, so that would
be one of the funniest moments so far.
Speaker 5 (32:37):
All right, before I show it, it's a peach emoji,
just to be clear, Yes, nice to me. It was
Jalen Hurts Chris Jones going back and forth at the
end of the game as the Eagles. We're kneeling down.
Shut your peach emoji up. Roll the videotape. Yeah, I
(32:57):
don't think we even ran a little caption there. Definitely
said it, though it was Chris Jones who was appleplectic, like,
you guys didn't even read for one hundred yards and
you're gonna win. He sort of almost was talking to himself,
and Jalen Hurts is like, we.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
Won the bleeping game.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
Shut you bleep up, takes a snap on a knee.
Speaker 9 (33:14):
I thought it was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
All of us have that energy when Manti talks about
the Saints, where like.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
Oh yeah, here we go again. Listen, we're seven We're
seven games in.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
We've seen a lot of amusing things, We've seen a
lot of entertaining things, and there is still nothing that's
made me. It's still Broderick Jones blindsiding Rogers. This is
an unbelievably funny thing.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
And let me give it a little context.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Okay, Roderick Jones is the left tackle. Literally, his job
is to protect Aaron Rodgers' backside, and he blindsides him.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
More context.
Speaker 8 (33:42):
In this game.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Against the Bengals, Aaron Rodgers was not sacked once in
the prior game for the Steelers, Aaron.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
Rodgers was not sacked once.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
He has not been getting hit until his own guy
at way over three bills takes him down. I have
a relatable thing where every time I go to the
grocery store, my son likes to push the cart.
Speaker 8 (34:02):
It's a little fun to thrill for an.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Eleven year old to push the cart, and I'll be
looking the shelves and I'll be doing this and doing this. Inevitably,
he rams the cart into the back of my achilles tendon,
right where that lower shelf thing is.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
And I react, just like Rogers right here, Yeah, what.
Speaker 8 (34:18):
Are you doing?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
And I'm down on one knee in Aisle five at
the grocery store. And he's like, oh, sorry, sorry, it
happened last time, It'll happen next time. That is how
it feels when you're tackled. Tackles you. And by the way,
in this moment of pure jubilation, it says, if I
had just left the deli counter with like free salami
and was eating, I'm going He's coborting to the sideline
at forty one years old, about to be embraced by
(34:40):
his sidelight and then oh down. Imagine I mean, I
hate David put this. What if Rogers was injured in
that play? Then it's like, can you imagine what if
that led to some sort of shoulder injury or something?
Thank god it didn't for Rogers is like, I'm forty one,
I was born in the early eighties. You know how
hard it is to stay alive in the NFL. I
got this guy jumping on my back. It's so funny.
(35:01):
And his reaction, I'm sure Rodgers's be like, yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
I was justiving him some crap.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Now, he was pissed, unbelievably mad, and I'm sure he
calmed down, But the fact that he was so mad
and the.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Path of Broden Jones was like, I thought it was funny.
I might do it again. Hilarious. I love that moment.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
That is a generational trauma that transcends all ages. Kyle,
you can't tell me that you did not do that
to your own parents. Whoever was grocery shopping growing up?
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Okay, good, Yes, the grocery carts haven't changed in fifty years.
There's still three good wheels and one crappy one that
spins like this. And I did it to my dad
and my grandson will do it to my son.
Speaker 5 (35:33):
They even have the ones where you put the items
in and it recognized them immediately. Still on that one
the wheels, Yeah, yeah, exactly what.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Jummy is the smartest cart you've ever sat?
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Yeah, I shopped in the future, Mike, Gie, you were
in a whole nother tax bracket.
Speaker 16 (35:48):
My man, it's time for what's your beef?
Speaker 3 (36:07):
Is that a by old trapper? Jamie? You're at training
camp in Miami.
Speaker 8 (36:11):
How is it?
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
It's hot as hadies down here? It is one hundred
and five degrees. Let me show you the thermometer, Jamie.
It is the AFC title game. What's the energy like
out there?
Speaker 8 (36:22):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (36:22):
The tailgaters have been here since six am. Report conversation
starters are the bane of my existence. And I can
think of some friends on my show that also feel
this way. And I really have some beef today. After
the Rams played in London last weekend with Sean McVay
in particular, Sean Coach, we were so close to being
done with Crutch conversation starters, Crutch report starters.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
When it came to Team International travel, we had it made.
Thirty one teams were doing the same thing.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
They were leaving on Thursday night after a very nice practice,
the team shower, they grabbed.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
A little to go meal, They get on the team plane,
they fly overnight, they land, the.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Coach tries to keep them up because China is important
to beat jet lag. They practice, they frolic, they enjoy
the town, then they play the game.
Speaker 8 (37:10):
That was it.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
We were so.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Close to being done talking about team travel because once
everybody treated it the same, we could stop addressing it
until you went and did what you did the Raven
state in Baltimore or the Rams state in Baltimore all
last week to practice to enjoy charm City.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
It was novel. It was an incredible idea.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Then they get on the plane Friday night, lands Saturday
morning and did it work. You bet it did, because
the Rams played out.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Of their mind.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Not thirty hours after the team landed in London. And
now everybody and their mother is rethinking how they approach
international team travel. Everyone has an opinion about it. I,
for one, who have covered a lot of international games,
try to make myself stop making that the first thing
that I say when I see somebody at one of
those games, Wow, how are you how's your sleep?
Speaker 3 (37:56):
Oh man, it's been rough the first couple of nights.
Speaker 13 (37:59):
I don't care.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
I don't care how your sleep is.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Okay, coach, why did you have to do it to us?
Speaker 15 (38:04):
All right?
Speaker 2 (38:04):
So glad you played well? Thrilled Stafford. It really taught
us all lesson that mind over matter. When it comes
to the jet lag, it's like having bad food, poisoning
or a hangover. Sometimes you have to just go right
through it in order to succeed. I can't believe you
did it to us because we are just right back
into this conundrum of how do you do team travel,
and we, as a TV media obligation, are going to
(38:25):
have to keep talking about it. I can't believe you
did it to us. John, that's my beef for today.
Speaker 8 (38:29):
Good work, Jamis, thank you, good work.
Speaker 9 (38:31):
Hey, Jamy.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
I'm gonna start with she disappeared. I do have a
question for her, a follow up question. First of all,
the training camp one. If you're the one, because easily
we'll be out.
Speaker 8 (38:41):
Of five camp, don't do it, Mike.
Speaker 5 (38:42):
You're the person who's stationed in Green Bay and you go, boy,
it's hot here today. You know it's probably going to
be a topic at all the other places as well.
But Jamie, next year, next year, the NFL is going
to Australia. Now that's on a completely other side of
the globe. That's the first time that they're really encountering
that kind of travel.
Speaker 9 (39:01):
Would it be okay for the reporter.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
Assigned to that game to ask about international travel.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
When it's the first time set about a team. Yes,
because we are being introduced to.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
The concept and you know who's doing it, the Rams.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Okay, So we already know that Seaan McVay is going
to be the one Kyle who comes up with this
innovative way. But I implore people, make it interesting, make
it different, and.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
If it's not, don't cover it, don't do it.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
The NFL Way to Play Awards are fueled by Gatorade.
They were created to recognize and reward players who lead
by example using proper playing technique. This week, let's take
a closer look at a picture perfect tackle. Here is

tackle for loss.
Speaker 4 (39:55):

head out, shoulder in wrapping the ball carrier taking to
the ground.

Speaker 3 (40:11):
Play example.
Speaker 2 (40:12):

grant through USA Football to a youth or high school

to him since he holds his youth and people in
his community close to him. To learn more about the
NFL Way to Play, check out play Football dot NFL
dot com and we will announce another winner right here

the commercial break.
Speaker 7 (40:33):

He's from Mississippi. Where Mississippi's that is right next to Louisiana,
and what team plays in Louisiana.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
Let's go, he plays right next to Louisiana.
Speaker 13 (40:46):

Speaker 3 (40:52):
Has been.
Speaker 4 (40:54):

Speaker 1 (40:55):
I know the Irish saying exactly winning a national title
this year, so you got to go to some other teams.
Speaker 9 (40:59):
But come on, let's.
Speaker 8 (41:00):
Start Kelly, Brian Kelly's l s U. You know where
L s U is?
Speaker 4 (41:05):

Speaker 9 (41:07):

Speaker 2 (41:12):
You opened up the can of worms by asking us
to talk about other teams.
Speaker 8 (41:18):
Bobby Lee is also in Louisiana.
Speaker 13 (41:21):
