don't forget coming up in about twenty eight minutes, Lamar
(01:05):
Mitchell bet MGM, director of Trading. Yeah with the pigskin
pickoff after that last call, So much to do, so
little time here on the Couple and Uh, let's talk
about Jalen Hurts, of course, the raigning Super Bowl winning quarterback.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
He won the MVP.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Everybody to me was like, just stop sa Quon and
you'll beat the Eagles, and uh, okay, Saquon was stopped,
and guess what. The Eagles still won the Super Bowl
and Jalen Hurts was a big part of that. But
the offense is off to a slow start, and he's
taking some responsibility. Ian right, we have sound.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Correct, we do have sound. Yeah, like you said, I
mean something else important context. He's actually the only starting
quarterback left in the NFL who has passing touchdown exactly,
who has yet to throw a passing touchdown.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
With that, that's the big thing right now. And they
are too and O. So it's like how much winning exactly.
But here's what Jalen had to say.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
More importantly, just overall operation and how we function, how
we flow, our synchronization. I think that I take accountability
for a lot of it and just how we go
out there because that's my job, my job to go
out there and be the general orchestrate everything and ultimately
make plays. And you know, given the opportunities we had,
(02:25):
you know, I'm very critical of myself of trying to
make the most of what's given to us. And so
there's definitely some evolution that we can do. There's definitely
some things that we can grow in. But I look
inward on all of those things and I just want
to make the most of the opportunities that we do have.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
I think sometimes we can be kind of hypocritical. We say, hey,
I want you to win. I want it's all about
winning winning. Would you always say wins and loss the
only thing going.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
To make a short menu. It's a short menu.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
We say that, But then we'll say, oh, well, well,
well it's got to look like this.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
And I wanted to feel like that. And I get
it because.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
At times I've been worried sitting there saying, man, hey,
if I'm the Eagles, if they clamp down on the
running game, and I have to have Jalen Hurts get
it done, Kenny.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
And that's what they said in the Super Bowl. You
gotta admit that going in that was the way. All
they gotta do is stump sha kwand he got all
a million yards. He's the reason that they will winning.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
It ain't Jalen Hurt and Jalen Hurts, to his credit,
has found a way to get it done when needed to.
Jalen Hurts what he's done in college, He won a
lot and then they tang to it and everybody's like, no,
your turn is over. He goes Oklahoma, won a lot
with Oklahoma. Then he comes to the league. All right,
we'll see what he is. Maybe he's won a lot.
Since he's been in the NFL. You look at him
(03:41):
as the since he's really been the starter with the Eagles.
I mean, he goes eight and seven, fourteen and one,
eleven and six, he goes twelve and thirteen, he's two
and all.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Right.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Now he's been the two Super Bowls, he's won one
and he's out played Patrick Mahomes and both of them.
So Jalen Hurts is essentially I keep thinking about him
as like a Terry Bradshaw, And you've heard me references
Terry Bradshaw could have some games who he's airing it
out because they don't have a bunch of receivers. Then
then it was maybe handing up to Franco Harris. And
(04:11):
then some just have great stats. Stats aren't amazing gold,
but they didn't throw to football like that and he
was perfect for that team. What do you need me
to do? I'm gonna be tough. I'm gonna be a guy.
Take the take the sacks. I'll take that. I mean
the hits. I'm gonna get the ball out. I'll run
the ball, whatever it took. And he took that to
the tune of four super Bowl rings. And I think
(04:32):
Jalen Hurts is on that trajectory. We're gonna look up
at the end of his career. He's gonna have three,
he might have four, But all I know is he
keeps being on winning teams and they keep playing winning football.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Is it ugly at times? Yes? Did push want to
put you to sleep? At times?
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Yes, there's a j Brown gotta be looking up like
why do I have one pass a target?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Why am I reading a book from the New York
Times bestsellers on the bitch during the game.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
But at the end of the it's effective and last point,
I'll talk to you, Rob. The only criticism, what will
at least the big one I'll have is I will
say next year will be interesting if they legislate out
the tush push. And the reason why I say that
is that play not just when we think of it
as a touchdown, like they're on the fourth and they're
(05:20):
on the goal. The reason why I'm interested in seeing
that is because the times they're fourth and third and two,
third and three, and they do it twice from the
fifty yard line point being they extend drives because of
that that ultimately can get them points or ultimately take
time out the clock. And if they can't do that
as much, I do wonder how that might change the
way that you know they're they're strategy in their offense,
(05:41):
and I would like to see that. But he's been productive, man,
and then we can't act like he's not thrown for
almost four thousand yards and twenty twenty three all thirty
seven hundred yards and twenty twenty two. So he's been
He's been able to get wins and victories. He's been
whatever that team has needed him to be. He's never
going to be a top eight quarterback, seven quarterback when
it comes to passing stats. He's never gonna be a
(06:02):
top six, top five quarterback. When you think aesthetically, when
you think, when you close your eyes and I think
of a quarterback Justin Herbert, Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Matthew Stafford.
You know those guys are gonna cross your mind when
you think of a quarterback before him. But those eyes
aren't winning at the Radi's winning.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
But to me, Jalen Hurts doesn't have to prove anything
to anybody.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I'm dead serious.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Like I think it's just window dressing because Patrick Mahomes
could have bad numbers, but he makes one play and
you're good with that, right? Oh yeah, No, he makes
a winning play. I don't care if he had one
hundred and thirty yards, which one is it? Which one
is it? Because he ain't the Patrick Mahomes from year
one or two when he's lighting up the field and
scoring fifty points. But you're okay with that because he
(06:49):
gets it, He keeps him alive, makes a play, makes
a third down convergion. Okay.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And here's the other part.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
When he threw three for three hundred yards in the
Super Bowl and had four touchdowns, one passing in three rushing,
they lost, Okay, So what like he can't throw the football?
He did it and when toe to toe and if
it wasn't for that costly fumble, everybody have won that
Super Bowl. He might be two to zero and could
have been Patrick Mahomes twice. Okay, he played great that game.
(07:21):
I had a costly fumble last year. Last year, all
I heard pregame all the former NFL players, Oh the playground,
the playbook for this is simple. Just stop sa Kwon
Barker had a million yards on the ground. He's the
reason why they were so good this year.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
He's the reason.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Why he had fifty seven yards on twenty five carries.
Two point three yards of carry. That ain't gonna cut it.
You were if you were going with that, you ain't winning.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
No Super Bowl last year.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Okay. And and all I'm gonna say is he made
all the throws you needed to make Jalen Herbs and
that Super Bowl. I don't care about the style points.
I don't care. This guy has helped them win. He
did it. We've seen him in two Super Bowls now
(08:17):
one where he was throwing the ball and have four touchdowns,
this one where he didn't didn't even go crazy but right.
And and he won the Super Bowl MVP because why
Kelviny made every throw that they needed. He did it.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
What does he have to prove to people?
Speaker 4 (08:35):
The challenge is Robert, if I jump in here is
I think we're in a quarterback You could argue maybe
like a quarterback Renos sound where there's a lot of
good quarterbacks. I mean there's a handful of great where
we're like, whoa, that guy's amazing, But like Jordan Love
looks like he could be one of those guys eventually.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Jayden Daniels looks like okay, eventually.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Right, And then you got, like I said, the Joe
Burrows and already you know the four horsemen with the
Joe and the Josh and the Lamar and Patrick. But
then you got Matthew Staffordson, Aaron Roda. I'm just still
out there. So I think the challenge is he just
doesn't fit the mold that people's brains go, well, this
just doesn't make sense. Why is he having all the
success looking at these other guys who were, you know,
(09:11):
much more fitting the traditional mold. But again, some guys
just fit their team and do exactly what it takes
to win. And it happens all the time. I mean you,
if you want to use another example, different sport, Tim Duncan,
whatn't always is flashy, as Kevin Garnett. If you look
at the power forwards or Dirk Novisky fadeaway jumpers, one
(09:32):
legged jumpers and hitting threes and all that, and maybe
didn't have the gaudy numbers of a prime Karl Malone
or Charles Barkley.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
You know what he did. What y'all need me to
do tonight?
Speaker 4 (09:42):
You need me to just block a few shots, put
a couple of you know, nice jump books in and
off the glass, come talk.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Okay, what do y'all need me tonight?
Speaker 6 (09:48):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You need thirty and twenty?
Speaker 7 (09:49):
Now?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Okay, cool? What do y'all need me tonight?
Speaker 4 (09:52):
And he just did that to the tune of five
championships and what he only lose once. So I think
that's a you know if I I know, it's not
apples apples, but an example of a guy who is
who can just say I'm gonna do what you need
me to do to win.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
And to his tune.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
And I've been critical at times, or more I would
say critical, I've been more concerned, Like I don't know, man,
I thought last year you would concern going into the
superl because I knew they were a good team. My
question was if you got into it with the Rams
and I you know, you gotta have a shootout. You
got into it with the Chiefs and the Super Bowl,
you had to have a shootout. Could he get it done?
And he shut me up. He said, look, man, I
can do it. I can I can do.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
What I know.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
And it's about making throws at certain plays, you know,
Like we talked about Patrick Mahomes, so yeah, but we
were talking about the Chargers, h Herbert and Justin Herbert.
He makes a play with his legs that that that
gives him the first down that iced to get the
game right.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
It's something that I could play. You got to make
a play.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
And in Jalen Hurts's case, he made some throws in
that Super Bowl where you needed that first down or
whatever to keep the clock running, and he did it.
He got it, he made it happen.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
And another guy I know, we bring him up all
the time, but Lamar Jackson does that ninety percent of
the time. That other ten percent is to me, the
slight difference between him, Patrick Mahomes and even Jalen Hurts
of the they make that play a handful more times,
and that's been the separate I do believe Lamar is
gonna get it right at some point.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
But that's he breaks through. I'm telling you, like.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Rob g remember we were talking about if he messed
around gets one, don't mess around and get two. We
gotta have some real hard conversations around Lamar has ranked
because it's that here's you know, you go to a
reference with this basketball football reference and they you can
click on the thing they'll say bio and awards and
his awards insteads are gonna be absurd.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Of not having enough room on the internet, Like that's.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Where we are.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
It's gonna be a full lit But Jalen Hurts His
is gonna be with the wins, wins and you know,
and and percentages of winning and then Super Bowl appearances
because he might not have the MVPs and all that
good stuff. But so far, I mean, there's a reason
why Jayalen Hurts can say, I know y'all talk about
them and them and them, and y'all don't bring me
up as much, but I'm the only one that's been
(12:07):
you know, outside.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Of uh Patrick Mahomes, I'm the.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
Only one that's been to two Super got the only
one to outplay the guy. I keep playing number one,
and I got a world Sier and I got an
MVP and so so you know he can definitely say
that for himself.

Does Jalen Hurts have anything to prove to you?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Are you still a doubter or still on enough defense
on him on how good he really is or not?
What do you believe? Like, Yes, he is that dude, Kelvin?
And I think he's that dude. Right? Are you convinced?
Speaker 6 (12:44):
Now?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Closer to it?
Speaker 4 (12:45):
I think he's exactly what the Philadelphia Eagles need.

(14:31):
all right, Jalen Hurts the only quarterback in the NFL,
which is a strange stat. I'm not gonna lie who
has not thrown a passing touchdown. But he's also, by
the way, two and oh and he's also, by the way,
the ragining of Super Bowl MVP. So he does have
that in his pocket. But are you wanting more from him?
Are you concerned about it?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
He take the two wins and no touchdowns compared to
ten touchdowns and no win oh and two?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
Right, you sold on him? You still want to see

ninety nine on Fox Who we got Paul in Spokane, Washington.
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Paul?
Speaker 6 (15:05):
Hey, what's up? Guys?
Speaker 10 (15:07):
I got two quick takes for you.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Yes, Jalen Hurt. Well, we appreciate you listening to Thank you, Thank.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
You, Paul.
Speaker 10 (15:13):
Yeah, thanks for having me, guys, guys, this is awesome
talking guys. Uh So, Jalen Hurts. I think, of course
he doesn't have anything to prove.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
He won a Super Bowl, right, yep.
Speaker 10 (15:21):
But he's not doing it the way that people kind
of wanted to do it. He's not throwing all the touchdowns,
so I got kind of a hot take. He kind
of reminds me of another guy who's built like a
tight end and he was a winner, and he could
make a couple of plays a game that would win
you the game, and he would be amazing at doing
the touch push.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
Don't say Tim t my mouth, please, I know you
better know about say Tim yep.
Speaker 10 (15:44):
I know I knew that would just kind of get
a rise.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
You are.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
You got a big rise out of me. I'm telling
you that. Thanks, appreciate it. Appreciate The only thing that
problem is Tim Tebow couldn't make a fifteen yard pass consistent.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
You got it?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Kind of do that right you like in the NFL
scene hurts so big big passes and big sits. Yeah, Tim,
he threw a seven yard slant route that went all
the way now with.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Eleven man front right, nobody nobody home. Like I'm telling you,
that was one of the worst things I've ever seen.
Like they had no respect for him.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
They're like nat Yeah, Marius Thomas, God blessed that and
made it happen.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Andre In Massachusetts. You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
What's up, Dray, what's going on?
Speaker 7 (16:25):
Guys? Thanks for taking the call.
Speaker 11 (16:26):
Listen.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
I do feel Jalen Hurts has a ways to go
because of the perception that he is a system quarterback
on a very talented team. I feel like Howie Roseman,
that organization may way.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Have been drain dra I want you to finish.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
But I last year, the whole conversation was it was
about the running game in Saquonaquon had two point three
yards of carrying the Super Bowl and they won. They
beat the Chiefs.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
Indeed they did rob but that defense at Patrick Mahomes
running for his life. Okay, so they're they're they're a
complete team and he's a very important part of that.
And to start the season. I feel like, Listen, Jalen Hurts,
there's nothing wrong with wrong where you're planted. There's nothing
wrong with having role acceptance and being successful by the
way that top Patrick Mahomes has won his last championships.
But there is this view that you know, he has
to do more, which I don't think he does. But
(17:11):
I think that that perceptions out there maybe for him
to have a late fourth quarter drive on one of
their playoff runs that would that would go along. But
that's that's the next iteration for him, the next phase
for him to conquer that that fourth quarter, Joe Montana,
you'll leave the team in a in a must score possession.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I think.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
I think that's what people are not Obviously Joemantan's the
greatest of all times, but they're looking for him to
be the specific reason.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
For the victory.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Thanks taking a call, Thank you appreciate it. What about
Casey in Oregon? You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up, Casey? Casey there?
Speaker 6 (17:47):
Yeah, hey you guys here remember, yes?
Speaker 12 (17:50):
Yeah, So I love Jaylen Hurts's readership abilities and his
work ethic, and he seems like you loved the game
more than the lifestyle. But I also do believe that
there's about twelve to fifteen other quarterbacks that probably would
have done the same thing in the last three seasons
after he has done with this unbelievable roster that Howie
(18:13):
Roseman had orchestrated in Philadelphia.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
I think you guys are just that's over that's your overstate.
And that a little bit to me because because there's
the difference is to me, there's certain plays that other
guys just can't make. Right, there's touch pushes that other
guys clearly can't make because the other teams ain't doing it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
And when it was in the other Super Bowl, he
had three rushing touchdowns.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Everybody's not rushing. Appreciate, appreciate Casey, thank you. Yeah, I
just I get I agree. People always think everything's interchangeable.
Oh well, which call you that. I'm like, man, but
he might not run right there. He might not be
strong enough to make that Tooch push. He might There's
plays and sometimes games come down a handful of plays.
And that's why Lamar stats are crazy. Josh Allen stats
(18:54):
are crazy. You know these certain guys, Patrick Wann, they
can do things. Mark Andrews held onto that ball like
you just don't like that was a big out. I
mean that was I still can't believe that. So it
wasn't even like a like I had to put all
my might on a bullet and you're coming across the mill.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
He was.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
He was right there, crazy, he was right there.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Hey Kenneth in San Antonio, you're on the couple of
Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Kenneth?
Speaker 13 (19:16):
Hey guys saying great show.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
By the way, thank you tell you.
Speaker 13 (19:20):
Let me tell you what I feel like it happened
last year in the Super Bowl. I think that the
defense was everything was aimed at sat Quan. Stopping Saquon,
I think is how Jalen got loose and was able
to do what he did because if you think about
it all year, Squon was the man. I mean him
(19:43):
not winning the MVP of the Year. There's no reason
for it. This this thing about.
Speaker 11 (19:48):
You got to be in the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, I'm with you on that. I don't like that.
I'm with you.
Speaker 13 (19:52):
Deserved to win the MVP last year. And I think
I really believe that the reasons that Jalen was it
is able to get over the hums was because they
were keying more on stopping.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
But yeah, but the idea was if you stopped, you win,
You'll be fine. Because he can't make the throws. But
he made throws in that.
Speaker 11 (20:16):
Exactly.
Speaker 13 (20:17):
They were putting all the attention on stopping him, and
it freed Jalen to run and throw the ball.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Yeah, but they were feeling though that he couldn't do
it though, but they were feeling like he wouldn't be
able to do it or wouldn't be able to make
those throws or make those plays. That's why you you
you focus in on the running back guys.
Speaker 13 (20:36):
I really honestly think I believe that jalen Is.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Dak Prescott Wron.
Speaker 13 (20:42):
I think they're two. I think they're exactly like. I
don't think dak Is should have been the m v
P when he won it years back. I think that
was because of Zeke.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
He didn't win, didn't get MVP. He finished the top three,
so he was second.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
But that was when I think Lamar had heavy vote
first place, voted self for one.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Now that was a year he finished second. Well, I
think Kenneth won go. I think Kenneth was the one
Kit had voted for Deck. That's who it was.

(23:54):
Director of Trading, Lamar, what's up?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Man?
Speaker 6 (23:57):
What's up?
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Kevin?
Speaker 6 (23:57):
What's going Groy?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
How are you?
Speaker 6 (24:01):
I'm doing it? Just survived that fight weekend last weekend?
That was crazy?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, man, how'd the house do on that? You guys
made out or no?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
No, no, we took about two and a half million
on on Crawford, so we got we we didn't do
too well.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
A bunch of clocks clean. You need a big weekend
in the NFL, then.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Huh yeah, that's what we're looking forward to this weekend.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
All right, Well, let's get to it outside of my
Lions right the game I'm looking forward to the most.
We were just talking about the Eagles. You got the
Rams against the Eagles. Philly is currently holding three and
a half point home favorite, but the Rams are six
and oh against the spread on the road dating back
to last season.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
So what can action are you getting?
Speaker 4 (24:38):
I would imagine a lot of people I could see
both ways because there's two good teams.
Speaker 10 (24:42):
You know what?
Speaker 6 (24:43):
The public definitely, the public is on the Eagles at
about two to one and a ticket clearly. Yeah, the
money though, is even, but the shot money has been
all on the Rams. At Rams defense is nothing to
joke about it, and that's where the shot money's at.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Okay, I might have to be the shots on that one.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:01):
How about the Vikings in Bengals, that's the battle of
the backups. You got Carson oh Pennsylvania taking on Jake
the late Tom Browning, who's the pitch for the Reds,
And I see the number has moved all the way
from Minnesota minus five and a half to Minnesota minus three?
Are the betters big believers in the Bengals even without
(25:22):
Joe Burrow?
Speaker 6 (25:24):
No, that's a pretty good question, that Rob, because what
we're seeing money is about twelve to one in favor
of the Vikings. Other it's still early. There's really no
money here on the Bengals. Ticket count here in this
situation about two to one in favor of the Vikings.
But the shot money is on the Bengals. So it's
(25:46):
gonna be a classic jokes versus pros in the scenario,
the shots like Jake Browning the pitcher that you said,
and the pros or the Joe's like the Vikings.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
There you go, no doubt.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, let's go to a guy. He's not gonna be in.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
Jane did jayde and Daniel is going to be probably
out of this game against the Raiders. And if that
wasn't bad enough, you got Vegas has covered their last
six games against the spread when they play on short rest.
So are the betters buying Geno Smith and the Raiders
plus three and a half even after the debacle on
Monday night? They looked awful? He threw a gang interceptions.
Speaker 6 (26:18):
Interceptions are the understatement. No, betters are definitely not buying
Geno Smith. Although our early line was six, and once
we learned about Jade and Daniels, we dropped that down
a three to three and a half and the shots
countsing that three and a half and we're at three
right now. The public, they're definitely on the Commanders that
are about three to one clipping tickets, but the money's even.
(26:41):
But like I say, another Jos versus pros and the
shots are on this plus three and a half with
the Raiders, which we currently are at plus three right
now on the Raiders.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
All right.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
We talked earlier this week about CJ. Stroud and the
Texans offense has fallen since his rookie year. In fact,
read today that the under has hit at US sixty
eight percent clip in games featuring the Texans since last season.
What kind of action are you seeing on the total
this Sunday with the Houston visits the Jags in Jacksonville.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
Proman is total under. I mean, it's not even close
when it comes to money. It's about fifty to one
for every bet on the under and about three to
one clip tickets coming in under. They're definitely see something
here in the public and the shops here on the under.
Here definitely looking at this game under. We'll need over
forty three and a half for the house to be happy.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
All right, So let's go to this one here.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
You got this might be the craziest stack Lamar of
the year so far entering week three.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Danny Dimes.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
That's right, Danny Dimes and the Coasts still haven't punted once.
They've been incredible offensively. Are the better's buying in the Indy?
Are they buying Danny dimes? And what kind of action
are you seeing on the Coats minus four and tennessee?
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Yeah, this is this could be disaster for the house
here because the public is all on Dandy Dimes at
about a sixty one clip. As far as tickets and
money is almost six to one, it's about five to one.
It's a little bit over five to one, and money
on the Colts minus the points. And the shops laid
that three up to four. They laid the three late
(28:18):
and three and a half and we're at four. So
the shops and the Joe's are definitely on the Colts
this weekend.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
All right.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
I've heard some people say they think the Chargers are
the most complete team in the AFC, and I know
that three point home favors this week against Denver, but
the Broncos are five and one against the spread, in
their last six games after a loss where the sharps
on this one.
Speaker 6 (28:40):
The Sharks got in on this early. They laid the
two and a half on the Chargers, and we're sitting
pretty at three right now, three even as a.
Speaker 10 (28:48):
Matter of fact.
Speaker 6 (28:49):
But the public is all on the Chargers. I mean,
the Chargers look good against the hapless Raiders team on
Monday night. As you saw, public is about ten to
one in favor of money on the child and as
far as tickets, about five to one on the Chargers.
So definitely public is supporting the Chargers. Although to say
a complete team, Buffalo looked pretty well last pretty good
(29:10):
last night.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah they did for sure.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
Lamar Mitchell bet MGM, director of Trading over with the
ot Cup of Robin Kelvin on Fucky Flashback Friday. A
couple more for you, Lamar, looking at the Boar and
one game that stands out to me.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
You're looking at the Bears and Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
You got last week the Dallas gave up thirty seven
that Russell Wilson was playing out of his mind with
the Giants, and then Chicago gave up fifty two to
the Lions. So what kind of action are you seeing
in the total in this one. Is it going to
be a shootout? Maybe people betting on.
Speaker 6 (29:35):
That bugget he's not even closing.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Over under is eighty seven. Right.
Speaker 6 (29:42):
We opened this up at forty eight forty eight and
is now at fifty. The money on this is about
ten to one on the over and ticket count is
about seven to one on the over. Everyone expecting to
go over because we have those defenses played last and
they no one expects us.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
To be under game all right.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Lastly, Russell Wilson hasn't been great the last few years,
but one thing I'll give him is that he never
gets blown out. In fact, when he's an underdog of
four or more points, he covers the spread at a
seventy percent clip. With that in mind, what kind of
action are you seeing the Giants plus six and a
half against.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
The Chiefs, Well, we definitely are seeing the shots take
that six and a half. They definitely took the six
and a half fifty six. But the public is all
on the Chiefs as far as money takes the one
in favor of the Chiefs of money and then three
to one in favor of the Chiefs on the ticket activity.
As far as tickets on the Chiefs. But yeah, the
(30:43):
shots are definitely another Jones versus Pros shots. Definitely agree
with you there, Rob, that Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson will
be in this game and it's gonna be a close one.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah, we'll have to wait and see.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Man.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
The Chiefs obviously trying to get Worthy back and get
some offense going right now because they just have no
down the field three.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
That's really at all. We appreciate you as always, Lamar,
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Man.
Speaker 6 (31:04):

this our second year quarterback and all that. Uh, I
don't know Gino's pizza. I'm gonna pass. I'm gonna have
wings instead of Gino's pizza.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
They bounce back the Raiders, all right.
Speaker 3 (35:11):
Next up, the Cincinnati Bengals are going to Minnesota to
face the Vikings. The Vikings are favored by three points
as the home team. Rob will start with you who
you got Wentz in a lifetime?
Speaker 4 (35:24):
I'm gonna go with with Carson Wentz.
Speaker 1 (35:27):

guys have been previewing this game all show.
Speaker 5 (35:49):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
The Eagles are favored by three and a half points. Though,
what do you think you've been defending?
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Jalen Hurts? Are you gonna stand on it here? Kelvin?
What do you what do you got the best quarterback
in the NFL.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
Trying to get Already, my panties are in a bunch
double Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
I am going with the Rams. I think I think
they get it done.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
No, I'm going with Philly three and zero and Jalen
Hurts Toroles not one, not two.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
No, getting the little he went from one hundred one
yards to three touchdown three touchdown passing right, yes, not
rushing passing?
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Oh wow, Okay, I just say he gotta be eighty yards. Yeah,
I get you, I get you, all right? Yeah, give
me the Rams, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
The Cowboys are going to Chicago to face the Bears.
The away team, Dallas Cowboys are favored by one point
on the road, though, Rob who you got?
Speaker 1 (36:33):
I got the Bears. They got humiliated their season. They
gotta save face. I think they come out proud and
finally play, you know, a good game and beat the Cowboys.
The Cowboys I'm not that impressed by.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
I'm not that impressed with the Cowboys defense specifically, and
I think at some point Ben Johnson and Caleb have
to do something, so unfortunately I have to agree.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
Give me the Bears, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Last one for you, guys. Kansas City Chiefs going to
New York to face the Giants. Chiefs on the road
are favored by six and a half points, almost a
full touchdown there.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
It's the points.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
Well, I guess it's a touchdown almost touchdown plus extra point.
All right, who you guys got I got the Giants
plus to six and a half.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
They don't win the game because blowing people out.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I just I think it's close.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
I think their defense makes a couple of big plays
that gets them easy scoring positions, field position, and also,
uh maybe get a pick six. So I'm gonna go
with the Chiefs. But I unfortunately I can't talk smack
to you because I get it. But give me the cheeks,
all right, that's all I got. Yeah, all right, appreciate you, yeah, man,
appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Yeah. It's it's a handful of good games.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
It's just, you know, all the backup quarterbacks kind of
takes some of the sting, some of the juice off
of the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
It does.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
I'm just being honest. I mean, the football this weekend.
So we'll see.
Speaker 4 (37:54):
Because there's a couple of there's a couple of couple
of games you look at and you thought, oh, man,
if I could uh you know, the starring quarterback and that,
then you would have had it like the you know,
if you had JJ McCarthy and the Vikings going up
against Joe Burrow and the Bengals, you'd be like, all right,
you know, let me see what that one's all about.
And we were talking about the Commanders as well that
you know, you'd want to see Jay and Daniels going
(38:16):
out against Ready. So there's a handful of Yeah, there's
a handful of games and these quarterbacks that are out
that you get sick.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
I'm tired of so so no, this is a call.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
Banks who a linebacker for the lot for the Giants.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Giants right played at Michigan State. Uh, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
They just it was something I see on his social
media and somebody put down The two thousand and seven
Giants started the season oh and two with their defense
allowing up to eighty points in the first two games.
And you know how that season ended, right, they won
a super crazy stat that is the crazy oh and
two and giving up eighty points.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Crazy and especially because what they ended up being was
a great defensive team and.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
That crazy that is kind of crazy. Off to such
a bet.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
He's also crazy. Yeah, but that's that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
And now I think Carl is uh this talk that
they're trying to get him in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
He was he was really good. Oh yeah, without a doubt.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
No doubt. So all right the weekend, I'm on my
way up the DC area, Baltimore, just gonna be hanging
out there.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
Man, I need to fire.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
You might have to be my travel agent, man, because
the flights that you getting, the prices you get are upsurd.
And you know, I got to pay for five people
when I go somewhere. Yeah, so I need these prices, and.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
I got the nice exit row.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
So I'm gonna be very good. I'm a sleep on
my way to the DC area.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Are we bringing closer now? Oh no, no, no bag,
just to bag, backpack and just buying. Yah. I buy
closed out By underwear there when I get well.

a full version and a best of version posted right after.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
We get off the air.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Our aching knees and stiff back joints not cooperating. Some
days your body's just like nope, no way, no how.
And on those days, luckily there's a leave with just
one pill. A lead provides up to twelve hours of
pain relief so that you can keep moving. Use as directed,
don't forget coming up in about twenty eight minutes, Lamar
(01:05):
Mitchell bet MGM, director of Trading. Yeah with the pigskin
pickoff after that last call, So much to do, so
little time here on the Couple and Uh, let's talk
about Jalen Hurts, of course, the raigning Super Bowl winning quarterback.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
He won the MVP.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Everybody to me was like, just stop sa Quon and
you'll beat the Eagles, and uh, okay, Saquon was stopped,
and guess what. The Eagles still won the Super Bowl
and Jalen Hurts was a big part of that. But
the offense is off to a slow start, and he's
taking some responsibility. Ian right, we have sound.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Correct, we do have sound. Yeah, like you said, I
mean something else important context. He's actually the only starting
quarterback left in the NFL who has passing touchdown exactly,
who has yet to throw a passing touchdown.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
With that, that's the big thing right now. And they
are too and O. So it's like how much winning exactly.
But here's what Jalen had to say.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
More importantly, just overall operation and how we function, how
we flow, our synchronization. I think that I take accountability
for a lot of it and just how we go
out there because that's my job, my job to go
out there and be the general orchestrate everything and ultimately
make plays. And you know, given the opportunities we had,
(02:25):
you know, I'm very critical of myself of trying to
make the most of what's given to us. And so
there's definitely some evolution that we can do. There's definitely
some things that we can grow in. But I look
inward on all of those things and I just want
to make the most of the opportunities that we do have.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
I think sometimes we can be kind of hypocritical. We say, hey,
I want you to win. I want it's all about
winning winning. Would you always say wins and loss the
only thing going.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
To make a short menu. It's a short menu.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
We say that, But then we'll say, oh, well, well,
well it's got to look like this.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
And I wanted to feel like that. And I get
it because.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
At times I've been worried sitting there saying, man, hey,
if I'm the Eagles, if they clamp down on the
running game, and I have to have Jalen Hurts get
it done, Kenny.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
And that's what they said in the Super Bowl. You
gotta admit that going in that was the way. All
they gotta do is stump sha kwand he got all
a million yards. He's the reason that they will winning.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
It ain't Jalen Hurt and Jalen Hurts, to his credit,
has found a way to get it done when needed to.
Jalen Hurts what he's done in college, He won a
lot and then they tang to it and everybody's like, no,
your turn is over. He goes Oklahoma, won a lot
with Oklahoma. Then he comes to the league. All right,
we'll see what he is. Maybe he's won a lot.
Since he's been in the NFL. You look at him
(03:41):
as the since he's really been the starter with the Eagles.
I mean, he goes eight and seven, fourteen and one,
eleven and six, he goes twelve and thirteen, he's two
and all.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Right.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Now he's been the two Super Bowls, he's won one
and he's out played Patrick Mahomes and both of them.
So Jalen Hurts is essentially I keep thinking about him
as like a Terry Bradshaw, And you've heard me references
Terry Bradshaw could have some games who he's airing it
out because they don't have a bunch of receivers. Then
then it was maybe handing up to Franco Harris. And
(04:11):
then some just have great stats. Stats aren't amazing gold,
but they didn't throw to football like that and he
was perfect for that team. What do you need me
to do? I'm gonna be tough. I'm gonna be a guy.
Take the take the sacks. I'll take that. I mean
the hits. I'm gonna get the ball out. I'll run
the ball, whatever it took. And he took that to
the tune of four super Bowl rings. And I think
(04:32):
Jalen Hurts is on that trajectory. We're gonna look up
at the end of his career. He's gonna have three,
he might have four, But all I know is he
keeps being on winning teams and they keep playing winning football.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Is it ugly at times? Yes? Did push want to
put you to sleep? At times?
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Yes, there's a j Brown gotta be looking up like
why do I have one pass a target?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Why am I reading a book from the New York
Times bestsellers on the bitch during the game.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
But at the end of the it's effective and last point,
I'll talk to you, Rob. The only criticism, what will
at least the big one I'll have is I will
say next year will be interesting if they legislate out
the tush push. And the reason why I say that
is that play not just when we think of it
as a touchdown, like they're on the fourth and they're
(05:20):
on the goal. The reason why I'm interested in seeing
that is because the times they're fourth and third and two,
third and three, and they do it twice from the
fifty yard line point being they extend drives because of
that that ultimately can get them points or ultimately take
time out the clock. And if they can't do that
as much, I do wonder how that might change the
way that you know they're they're strategy in their offense,
(05:41):
and I would like to see that. But he's been productive, man,
and then we can't act like he's not thrown for
almost four thousand yards and twenty twenty three all thirty
seven hundred yards and twenty twenty two. So he's been
He's been able to get wins and victories. He's been
whatever that team has needed him to be. He's never
going to be a top eight quarterback, seven quarterback when
it comes to passing stats. He's never gonna be a
(06:02):
top six, top five quarterback. When you think aesthetically, when
you think, when you close your eyes and I think
of a quarterback Justin Herbert, Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Matthew Stafford.
You know those guys are gonna cross your mind when
you think of a quarterback before him. But those eyes
aren't winning at the Radi's winning.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
But to me, Jalen Hurts doesn't have to prove anything
to anybody.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I'm dead serious.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Like I think it's just window dressing because Patrick Mahomes
could have bad numbers, but he makes one play and
you're good with that, right? Oh yeah, No, he makes
a winning play. I don't care if he had one
hundred and thirty yards, which one is it? Which one
is it? Because he ain't the Patrick Mahomes from year
one or two when he's lighting up the field and
scoring fifty points. But you're okay with that because he
(06:49):
gets it, He keeps him alive, makes a play, makes
a third down convergion. Okay.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And here's the other part.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
When he threw three for three hundred yards in the
Super Bowl and had four touchdowns, one passing in three rushing,
they lost, Okay, So what like he can't throw the football?
He did it and when toe to toe and if
it wasn't for that costly fumble, everybody have won that
Super Bowl. He might be two to zero and could
have been Patrick Mahomes twice. Okay, he played great that game.
(07:21):
I had a costly fumble last year. Last year, all
I heard pregame all the former NFL players, Oh the playground,
the playbook for this is simple. Just stop sa Kwon
Barker had a million yards on the ground. He's the
reason why they were so good this year.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
He's the reason.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Why he had fifty seven yards on twenty five carries.
Two point three yards of carry. That ain't gonna cut it.
You were if you were going with that, you ain't winning.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
No Super Bowl last year.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Okay. And and all I'm gonna say is he made
all the throws you needed to make Jalen Herbs and
that Super Bowl. I don't care about the style points.
I don't care. This guy has helped them win. He
did it. We've seen him in two Super Bowls now
(08:17):
one where he was throwing the ball and have four touchdowns,
this one where he didn't didn't even go crazy but right.
And and he won the Super Bowl MVP because why
Kelviny made every throw that they needed. He did it.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
What does he have to prove to people?
Speaker 4 (08:35):
The challenge is Robert, if I jump in here is
I think we're in a quarterback You could argue maybe
like a quarterback Renos sound where there's a lot of
good quarterbacks. I mean there's a handful of great where
we're like, whoa, that guy's amazing, But like Jordan Love
looks like he could be one of those guys eventually.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Jayden Daniels looks like okay, eventually.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Right, And then you got, like I said, the Joe
Burrows and already you know the four horsemen with the
Joe and the Josh and the Lamar and Patrick. But
then you got Matthew Staffordson, Aaron Roda. I'm just still
out there. So I think the challenge is he just
doesn't fit the mold that people's brains go, well, this
just doesn't make sense. Why is he having all the
success looking at these other guys who were, you know,
(09:11):
much more fitting the traditional mold. But again, some guys
just fit their team and do exactly what it takes
to win. And it happens all the time. I mean you,
if you want to use another example, different sport, Tim Duncan,
whatn't always is flashy, as Kevin Garnett. If you look
at the power forwards or Dirk Novisky fadeaway jumpers, one
(09:32):
legged jumpers and hitting threes and all that, and maybe
didn't have the gaudy numbers of a prime Karl Malone
or Charles Barkley.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
You know what he did. What y'all need me to
do tonight?
Speaker 4 (09:42):
You need me to just block a few shots, put
a couple of you know, nice jump books in and
off the glass, come talk.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Okay, what do y'all need me tonight?
Speaker 6 (09:48):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You need thirty and twenty?
Speaker 7 (09:49):
Now?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Okay, cool? What do y'all need me tonight?
Speaker 4 (09:52):
And he just did that to the tune of five
championships and what he only lose once. So I think
that's a you know if I I know, it's not
apples apples, but an example of a guy who is
who can just say I'm gonna do what you need
me to do to win.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
And to his tune.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
And I've been critical at times, or more I would
say critical, I've been more concerned, Like I don't know, man,
I thought last year you would concern going into the
superl because I knew they were a good team. My
question was if you got into it with the Rams
and I you know, you gotta have a shootout. You
got into it with the Chiefs and the Super Bowl,
you had to have a shootout. Could he get it done?
And he shut me up. He said, look, man, I
can do it. I can I can do.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
What I know.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
And it's about making throws at certain plays, you know,
Like we talked about Patrick Mahomes, so yeah, but we
were talking about the Chargers, h Herbert and Justin Herbert.
He makes a play with his legs that that that
gives him the first down that iced to get the
game right.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
It's something that I could play. You got to make
a play.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
And in Jalen Hurts's case, he made some throws in
that Super Bowl where you needed that first down or
whatever to keep the clock running, and he did it.
He got it, he made it happen.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
And another guy I know, we bring him up all
the time, but Lamar Jackson does that ninety percent of
the time. That other ten percent is to me, the
slight difference between him, Patrick Mahomes and even Jalen Hurts
of the they make that play a handful more times,
and that's been the separate I do believe Lamar is
gonna get it right at some point.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
But that's he breaks through. I'm telling you, like.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Rob g remember we were talking about if he messed
around gets one, don't mess around and get two. We
gotta have some real hard conversations around Lamar has ranked
because it's that here's you know, you go to a
reference with this basketball football reference and they you can
click on the thing they'll say bio and awards and
his awards insteads are gonna be absurd.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Of not having enough room on the internet, Like that's.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Where we are.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
It's gonna be a full lit But Jalen Hurts His
is gonna be with the wins, wins and you know,
and and percentages of winning and then Super Bowl appearances
because he might not have the MVPs and all that
good stuff. But so far, I mean, there's a reason
why Jayalen Hurts can say, I know y'all talk about
them and them and them, and y'all don't bring me
up as much, but I'm the only one that's been
(12:07):
you know, outside.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Of uh Patrick Mahomes, I'm the.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
Only one that's been to two Super got the only
one to outplay the guy. I keep playing number one,
and I got a world Sier and I got an
MVP and so so you know he can definitely say
that for himself.

Are you still a doubter or still on enough defense
on him on how good he really is or not?
What do you believe? Like, Yes, he is that dude, Kelvin?
And I think he's that dude. Right? Are you convinced?
Speaker 6 (12:44):
Now?
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Closer to it?
Speaker 4 (12:45):
I think he's exactly what the Philadelphia Eagles need.

like comment all that good stuff. We appreciate it as always,
(14:31):
all right, Jalen Hurts the only quarterback in the NFL,
which is a strange stat. I'm not gonna lie who
has not thrown a passing touchdown. But he's also, by
the way, two and oh and he's also, by the way,
the ragining of Super Bowl MVP. So he does have
that in his pocket. But are you wanting more from him?
Are you concerned about it?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
He take the two wins and no touchdowns compared to
ten touchdowns and no win oh and two?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
Right, you sold on him? You still want to see
more or you're just not a fan? Eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox Who we got Paul in Spokane, Washington.
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Paul?
Speaker 6 (15:05):
Hey, what's up? Guys?
Speaker 10 (15:07):
I got two quick takes for you.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Yes, Jalen Hurt. Well, we appreciate you listening to Thank you, Thank.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
You, Paul.
Speaker 10 (15:13):
Yeah, thanks for having me, guys, guys, this is awesome
talking guys. Uh So, Jalen Hurts. I think, of course
he doesn't have anything to prove.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
He won a Super Bowl, right, yep.
Speaker 10 (15:21):
But he's not doing it the way that people kind
of wanted to do it. He's not throwing all the touchdowns,
so I got kind of a hot take. He kind
of reminds me of another guy who's built like a
tight end and he was a winner, and he could
make a couple of plays a game that would win
you the game, and he would be amazing at doing
the touch push.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
Don't say Tim t my mouth, please, I know you
better know about say Tim yep.
Speaker 10 (15:44):
I know I knew that would just kind of get
a rise.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
You are.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
You got a big rise out of me. I'm telling
you that. Thanks, appreciate it. Appreciate The only thing that
problem is Tim Tebow couldn't make a fifteen yard pass consistent.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
You got it?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Kind of do that right you like in the NFL
scene hurts so big big passes and big sits. Yeah, Tim,
he threw a seven yard slant route that went all
the way now with.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Eleven man front right, nobody nobody home. Like I'm telling you,
that was one of the worst things I've ever seen.
Like they had no respect for him.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
They're like nat Yeah, Marius Thomas, God blessed that and
made it happen.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Andre In Massachusetts. You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
What's up, Dray, what's going on?
Speaker 7 (16:25):
Guys? Thanks for taking the call.
Speaker 11 (16:26):
Listen.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
I do feel Jalen Hurts has a ways to go
because of the perception that he is a system quarterback
on a very talented team. I feel like Howie Roseman,
that organization may way.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Have been drain dra I want you to finish.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
But I last year, the whole conversation was it was
about the running game in Saquonaquon had two point three
yards of carrying the Super Bowl and they won. They
beat the Chiefs.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
Indeed they did rob but that defense at Patrick Mahomes
running for his life. Okay, so they're they're they're a
complete team and he's a very important part of that.
And to start the season. I feel like, Listen, Jalen Hurts,
there's nothing wrong with wrong where you're planted. There's nothing
wrong with having role acceptance and being successful by the
way that top Patrick Mahomes has won his last championships.
But there is this view that you know, he has
to do more, which I don't think he does. But
(17:11):
I think that that perceptions out there maybe for him
to have a late fourth quarter drive on one of
their playoff runs that would that would go along. But
that's that's the next iteration for him, the next phase
for him to conquer that that fourth quarter, Joe Montana,
you'll leave the team in a in a must score possession.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
I think.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
I think that's what people are not Obviously Joemantan's the
greatest of all times, but they're looking for him to
be the specific reason.
Speaker 6 (17:35):
For the victory.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Thanks taking a call, Thank you appreciate it. What about
Casey in Oregon? You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
What's up, Casey? Casey there?
Speaker 6 (17:47):
Yeah, hey you guys here remember, yes?
Speaker 12 (17:50):
Yeah, So I love Jaylen Hurts's readership abilities and his
work ethic, and he seems like you loved the game
more than the lifestyle. But I also do believe that
there's about twelve to fifteen other quarterbacks that probably would
have done the same thing in the last three seasons
after he has done with this unbelievable roster that Howie
(18:13):
Roseman had orchestrated in Philadelphia.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
I think you guys are just that's over that's your overstate.
And that a little bit to me because because there's
the difference is to me, there's certain plays that other
guys just can't make. Right, there's touch pushes that other
guys clearly can't make because the other teams ain't doing it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
And when it was in the other Super Bowl, he
had three rushing touchdowns.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Everybody's not rushing. Appreciate, appreciate Casey, thank you. Yeah, I
just I get I agree. People always think everything's interchangeable.
Oh well, which call you that. I'm like, man, but
he might not run right there. He might not be
strong enough to make that Tooch push. He might There's
plays and sometimes games come down a handful of plays.
And that's why Lamar stats are crazy. Josh Allen stats
(18:54):
are crazy. You know these certain guys, Patrick Wann, they
can do things. Mark Andrews held onto that ball like
you just don't like that was a big out. I
mean that was I still can't believe that. So it
wasn't even like a like I had to put all
my might on a bullet and you're coming across the mill.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
He was.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
He was right there, crazy, he was right there.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Hey Kenneth in San Antonio, you're on the couple of
Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Kenneth?
Speaker 13 (19:16):
Hey guys saying great show.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
By the way, thank you tell you.
Speaker 13 (19:20):
Let me tell you what I feel like it happened
last year in the Super Bowl. I think that the
defense was everything was aimed at sat Quan. Stopping Saquon,
I think is how Jalen got loose and was able
to do what he did because if you think about
it all year, Squon was the man. I mean him
(19:43):
not winning the MVP of the Year. There's no reason
for it. This this thing about.
Speaker 11 (19:48):
You got to be in the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, I'm with you on that. I don't like that.
I'm with you.
Speaker 13 (19:52):
Deserved to win the MVP last year. And I think
I really believe that the reasons that Jalen was it
is able to get over the hums was because they
were keying more on stopping.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
But yeah, but the idea was if you stopped, you win,
You'll be fine. Because he can't make the throws. But
he made throws in that.
Speaker 11 (20:16):
Exactly.
Speaker 13 (20:17):
They were putting all the attention on stopping him, and
it freed Jalen to run and throw the ball.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Yeah, but they were feeling though that he couldn't do
it though, but they were feeling like he wouldn't be
able to do it or wouldn't be able to make
those throws or make those plays. That's why you you
you focus in on the running back guys.
Speaker 13 (20:36):
I really honestly think I believe that jalen Is.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Dak Prescott Wron.
Speaker 13 (20:42):
I think they're two. I think they're exactly like. I
don't think dak Is should have been the m v
P when he won it years back. I think that
was because of Zeke.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
He didn't win, didn't get MVP. He finished the top three,
so he was second.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
But that was when I think Lamar had heavy vote
first place, voted self for one.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Now that was a year he finished second. Well, I
think Kenneth won go. I think Kenneth was the one
Kit had voted for Deck. That's who it was.
Speaker 4 (21:12):
All right, let's be all right, Yeah, we got Lamar,
Mitchell bet MGM director on the other side of trending
right now, Steve Sega, good get you set hey, Steve Hey.

I'm doing it? Just survived that fight weekend last weekend?
That was crazy?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Yeah, man, how'd the house do on that? You guys
made out or no?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
No, no, we took about two and a half million
on on Crawford, so we got we we didn't do
too well.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
A bunch of clocks clean. You need a big weekend
in the NFL, then.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Huh yeah, that's what we're looking forward to this weekend.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
All right, Well, let's get to it outside of my
Lions right the game I'm looking forward to the most.
We were just talking about the Eagles. You got the
Rams against the Eagles. Philly is currently holding three and
a half point home favorite, but the Rams are six
and oh against the spread on the road dating back
to last season.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
So what can action are you getting?
Speaker 4 (24:38):
I would imagine a lot of people I could see
both ways because there's two good teams.
Speaker 10 (24:42):
You know what?
Speaker 6 (24:43):
The public definitely, the public is on the Eagles at
about two to one and a ticket clearly. Yeah, the
money though, is even, but the shot money has been
all on the Rams. At Rams defense is nothing to
joke about it, and that's where the shot money's at.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Okay, I might have to be the shots on that one.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:01):
How about the Vikings in Bengals, that's the battle of
the backups. You got Carson oh Pennsylvania taking on Jake
the late Tom Browning, who's the pitch for the Reds,
And I see the number has moved all the way
from Minnesota minus five and a half to Minnesota minus three?
Are the betters big believers in the Bengals even without
(25:22):
Joe Burrow?
Speaker 6 (25:24):
No, that's a pretty good question, that Rob, because what
we're seeing money is about twelve to one in favor
of the Vikings. Other it's still early. There's really no
money here on the Bengals. Ticket count here in this
situation about two to one in favor of the Vikings.
But the shot money is on the Bengals. So it's
(25:46):
gonna be a classic jokes versus pros in the scenario,
the shots like Jake Browning the pitcher that you said,
and the pros or the Joe's like the Vikings.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
There you go, no doubt.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, let's go to a guy. He's not gonna be in.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
Jane did jayde and Daniel is going to be probably
out of this game against the Raiders. And if that
wasn't bad enough, you got Vegas has covered their last
six games against the spread when they play on short rest.
So are the betters buying Geno Smith and the Raiders
plus three and a half even after the debacle on
Monday night? They looked awful? He threw a gang interceptions.
Speaker 6 (26:18):
Interceptions are the understatement. No, betters are definitely not buying
Geno Smith. Although our early line was six, and once
we learned about Jade and Daniels, we dropped that down
a three to three and a half and the shots
countsing that three and a half and we're at three
right now. The public, they're definitely on the Commanders that
are about three to one clipping tickets, but the money's even.
(26:41):
But like I say, another Jos versus pros and the
shots are on this plus three and a half with
the Raiders, which we currently are at plus three right
now on the Raiders.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
All right.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
We talked earlier this week about CJ. Stroud and the
Texans offense has fallen since his rookie year. In fact,
read today that the under has hit at US sixty
eight percent clip in games featuring the Texans since last season.
What kind of action are you seeing on the total
this Sunday with the Houston visits the Jags in Jacksonville.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
Proman is total under. I mean, it's not even close
when it comes to money. It's about fifty to one
for every bet on the under and about three to
one clip tickets coming in under. They're definitely see something
here in the public and the shops here on the under.
Here definitely looking at this game under. We'll need over
forty three and a half for the house to be happy.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
All right, So let's go to this one here.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
You got this might be the craziest stack Lamar of
the year so far entering week three.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Danny Dimes.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
That's right, Danny Dimes and the Coasts still haven't punted once.
They've been incredible offensively. Are the better's buying in the Indy?
Are they buying Danny dimes? And what kind of action
are you seeing on the Coats minus four and tennessee?
Speaker 6 (27:57):
Yeah, this is this could be disaster for the house
here because the public is all on Dandy Dimes at
about a sixty one clip. As far as tickets and
money is almost six to one, it's about five to one.
It's a little bit over five to one, and money
on the Colts minus the points. And the shops laid
that three up to four. They laid the three late
(28:18):
and three and a half and we're at four. So
the shops and the Joe's are definitely on the Colts
this weekend.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
All right.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
I've heard some people say they think the Chargers are
the most complete team in the AFC, and I know
that three point home favors this week against Denver, but
the Broncos are five and one against the spread, in
their last six games after a loss where the sharps
on this one.
Speaker 6 (28:40):
The Sharks got in on this early. They laid the
two and a half on the Chargers, and we're sitting
pretty at three right now, three even as a.
Speaker 10 (28:48):
Matter of fact.
Speaker 6 (28:49):
But the public is all on the Chargers. I mean,
the Chargers look good against the hapless Raiders team on
Monday night. As you saw, public is about ten to
one in favor of money on the child and as
far as tickets, about five to one on the Chargers.
So definitely public is supporting the Chargers. Although to say
a complete team, Buffalo looked pretty well last pretty good
(29:10):
last night.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah they did for sure.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
Lamar Mitchell bet MGM, director of Trading over with the
ot Cup of Robin Kelvin on Fucky Flashback Friday. A
couple more for you, Lamar, looking at the Boar and
one game that stands out to me.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
You're looking at the Bears and Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
You got last week the Dallas gave up thirty seven
that Russell Wilson was playing out of his mind with
the Giants, and then Chicago gave up fifty two to
the Lions. So what kind of action are you seeing
in the total in this one. Is it going to
be a shootout? Maybe people betting on.
Speaker 6 (29:35):
That bugget he's not even closing.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Over under is eighty seven. Right.
Speaker 6 (29:42):
We opened this up at forty eight forty eight and
is now at fifty. The money on this is about
ten to one on the over and ticket count is
about seven to one on the over. Everyone expecting to
go over because we have those defenses played last and
they no one expects us.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
To be under game all right.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Lastly, Russell Wilson hasn't been great the last few years,
but one thing I'll give him is that he never
gets blown out. In fact, when he's an underdog of
four or more points, he covers the spread at a
seventy percent clip. With that in mind, what kind of
action are you seeing the Giants plus six and a
half against.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
The Chiefs, Well, we definitely are seeing the shots take
that six and a half. They definitely took the six
and a half fifty six. But the public is all
on the Chiefs as far as money takes the one
in favor of the Chiefs of money and then three
to one in favor of the Chiefs on the ticket activity.
As far as tickets on the Chiefs. But yeah, the
(30:43):
shots are definitely another Jones versus Pros shots. Definitely agree
with you there, Rob, that Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson will
be in this game and it's gonna be a close one.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah, we'll have to wait and see.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Man.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
The Chiefs obviously trying to get Worthy back and get
some offense going right now because they just have no
down the field three.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
That's really at all. We appreciate you as always, Lamar,
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Man.
Speaker 6 (31:04):

Speaker 5 (35:49):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
The Eagles are favored by three and a half points. Though,
what do you think you've been defending?
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Jalen Hurts? Are you gonna stand on it here? Kelvin?
What do you what do you got the best quarterback
in the NFL.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
Trying to get Already, my panties are in a bunch
double Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
I am going with the Rams. I think I think
they get it done.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
No, I'm going with Philly three and zero and Jalen
Hurts Toroles not one, not two.
Speaker 4 (36:11):
No, getting the little he went from one hundred one
yards to three touchdown three touchdown passing right, yes, not
rushing passing?
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Oh wow, Okay, I just say he gotta be eighty yards. Yeah,
I get you, I get you, all right? Yeah, give
me the Rams, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
The Cowboys are going to Chicago to face the Bears.
The away team, Dallas Cowboys are favored by one point
on the road, though, Rob who you got?
Speaker 1 (36:33):
I got the Bears. They got humiliated their season. They
gotta save face. I think they come out proud and
finally play, you know, a good game and beat the Cowboys.
The Cowboys I'm not that impressed by.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
I'm not that impressed with the Cowboys defense specifically, and
I think at some point Ben Johnson and Caleb have
to do something, so unfortunately I have to agree.
Speaker 2 (36:51):
Give me the Bears, all right.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Last one for you, guys. Kansas City Chiefs going to
New York to face the Giants. Chiefs on the road
are favored by six and a half points, almost a
full touchdown there.
Speaker 2 (37:03):
It's the points.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
Well, I guess it's a touchdown almost touchdown plus extra point.
All right, who you guys got I got the Giants
plus to six and a half.
Speaker 4 (37:12):
They don't win the game because blowing people out.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I just I think it's close.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
I think their defense makes a couple of big plays
that gets them easy scoring positions, field position, and also,
uh maybe get a pick six. So I'm gonna go
with the Chiefs. But I unfortunately I can't talk smack
to you because I get it. But give me the cheeks,
all right, that's all I got. Yeah, all right, appreciate you, yeah, man,
appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Yeah. It's it's a handful of good games.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
It's just, you know, all the backup quarterbacks kind of
takes some of the sting, some of the juice off
of the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
It does.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
I'm just being honest. I mean, the football this weekend.
So we'll see.
Speaker 4 (37:54):
Because there's a couple of there's a couple of couple
of games you look at and you thought, oh, man,
if I could uh you know, the starring quarterback and that,
then you would have had it like the you know,
if you had JJ McCarthy and the Vikings going up
against Joe Burrow and the Bengals, you'd be like, all right,
you know, let me see what that one's all about.
And we were talking about the Commanders as well that
you know, you'd want to see Jay and Daniels going
(38:16):
out against Ready. So there's a handful of Yeah, there's
a handful of games and these quarterbacks that are out
that you get sick.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
I'm tired of so so no, this is a call.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
Banks who a linebacker for the lot for the Giants.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
Giants right played at Michigan State. Uh, it's funny.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
They just it was something I see on his social
media and somebody put down The two thousand and seven
Giants started the season oh and two with their defense
allowing up to eighty points in the first two games.
And you know how that season ended, right, they won
a super crazy stat that is the crazy oh and
two and giving up eighty points.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Crazy and especially because what they ended up being was
a great defensive team and.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
That crazy that is kind of crazy. Off to such
a bet.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
He's also crazy. Yeah, but that's that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
And now I think Carl is uh this talk that
they're trying to get him in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
He was he was really good. Oh yeah, without a doubt.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
No doubt. So all right the weekend, I'm on my
way up the DC area, Baltimore, just gonna be hanging
out there.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
Man, I need to fire.
Speaker 4 (39:17):

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
