Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio A from I don't
ever want to be called a word that ends in isst.
It's usually just not a good thing. I don't want
to be that. I don't want to be called that.
I don't ever want to step in that puddle. I
don't want to be a racist. I don't want to
be a sexist. I don't want to be any of
those things. I'm trying real hard tonight not to be

(00:24):
a receiverist, though I'm trying.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
I'm trying real harm my brother not to be a.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Receiverist because the loud ones this offseason, well, they're not
doing their job.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
They're not doing their job right now. How are you
doing tonight? I'm good man.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
How you doing.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
I'm doing okay, I'm doing okay. It's pretty interesting out there,
isn't it.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
A wise person just told me about an hour ago,
let's all admit that we're no smarter today.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Than we were a week ago.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
To idiots, all of them, I'm like, that's.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Probably pretty true, pretty true. I know where my survivor
pool went. Boy, I like to peacock around last week.
I told y'all not to take the Bengals. What I
do this week?

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Ravens? Of course I did the Ravens. Why wouldn't I?

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Good Lord, what on earth are we looking at right now?

should be. You go, man, talk to me about Jamar Chase.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
What do you got to say?

Speaker 4 (01:40):
Look, I'll say this, I'm watching that game, and it's
a good game. It's it's Kansas City, it's Cincinnati, it's Borough,
it's Mahomes. If anybody the only quarterback, I would say

(02:02):
that's given Mahomes real problems. It's Joe Burrow Ye, playoffs,
regular season. It just it is what it is. It happens.
They play well, no matter what's going on with their teams,
how hot they are, how cold they are, they play
each other extremely well, and so us as fans, we
look forward to it. And so you had one of

(02:24):
those type of games. It's the fourth quarter, it's under
four minutes, it's you know, a two point game or
so you know, and it's it's it's like, oh, we're
getting ready to have one of those phenomenal finishes. Cincinnati
has the ball, they're driving. Time is ticking off, and

(02:44):
I just kept thinking, look, I hope they're not just
going to try to settle for a field goal and
leave Patrick Mahomes anytime on the clock. Right, they get
the ball, they get a first down, I'm like, oh, okay,
now they have a drive. This is I believe it
was like right under five minutes left in the game.
They get the first down. I'm like, okay, they're moving

(03:04):
down the field. They're in field goal range. Now, plenty
of time. Have a nice first down play, nice second downplay.
Now it's third and medium, well within their ability to
get it. Jamar Chase catches the pass. He didn't like
the way he was tackled us. So I guess it's

(03:25):
about third and I don't know, five to four something
like that, and the ref comes in to spot the
ball and he just starts berating the referee, just berating,
saying all kinds of stuff. We couldn't hear what he
was saying, but it didn't look good. Joe Burrow sprints
from the backfield over to where Chase was grabs him,

(03:49):
pleading with him to stop talking. It's fine, it's third down,
we have the ball, third and manageable. We're good, We're
going to win the game. He keeps going, keep going,
keeps going. He gets a penalty unsportsmanlike conduct. Now it's
the down counts because it was after the play. So

(04:12):
now it's third and twenty two in a less than
three minutes to go in a two point game against
Kansas City on the road.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
And I just.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
Couldn't even understand coming off the offseason he had, coming
off last week's press conference, deflect, deflect, blame, blame, blame,
coming into the biggest game of their year against the
defending Super Bowl champions, who they have a rivalry with.

(04:51):
You show up and you do that, completely undermining the team,
the effort, all of those things. I couldn't even believe it.
I mean, I went.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
Crazy in the house. My wife was like, what's going on.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
I was like this.

Speaker 4 (05:11):
Essentially, this idiot just lost the game for him and
they still had third down to go and put just
understanding football and momentum and being on the.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Road, I knew, I'm like, oh, this is over. This
is over.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
They had complete control of the game with the ball,
with the clock ticking down, well within field goal range,
with the chance to burn more clock, make Kansas City
use their timeouts and eventually score a touchdown sit and
make it a two possession game. Well, that didn't happen.

(05:48):
They got about eight nine yards on the third down
play and came out kicked a really long field goal
with a little bit over two minutes left in the
game to give the ball back to Patrick Mahomes, and
we all know what happens after that. We all know
what's going to happen. This is the same man who
was in the game and it was literally thirteen seconds

(06:11):
left on the clock after the opposing team scored and
went ahead by two, and they won the game with
thirteen seconds left on the clock. And so knowing all
of this as a player, a supposed leader on the
play on the team, someone who's had the loudest mouth,

(06:32):
and I want my money and I want to do this,
And as the coach, why this is happening that guy
shows up and does that In that moment, it made
me think of.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Mike's singletary okay, and made me think of Mike.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
Mike saying, can't do it, can't win with him, can't
do it, can't do it. And look, if I was actated,
I would I would have taken him out of the game.
You know why, even if it's third and twenty two.
I'm saying to myself, Oh, we're gonna learn. We're going
to learn today. Yes, he's our best receiving option to

(07:19):
try to get some of this these yards back. But
the bigger thing is there has to be consequences for
your actions. And if you're going to do that and
sabotage the entire team's chance to win a ballgame on
the road, then you don't get to finish this out.

(07:42):
Go sit down. That's what I'm doing as a coach.
That's what I'm doing, And I'll answer. I'll answer for
it in the press conference after the game. Well why'd
you take them out?

Speaker 3 (07:55):
You needed them?

Speaker 4 (07:55):
No? No, no, no, because that's not what we're doing here.
That's not the culture we're trying to create here. If
you can't control yourself, then you don't need to be
out there. The quarterback was holding him back, pleading with him,
and he was still screaming, look.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
Raf, let him go.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
He was like, all right, may I good good, good
good good all because he thought he was a hip
drop tackled, which he wasn't. But you literally snatch the
victory away from your team that's been busting there but
all day long on the road. Tough place to play
in Kansas City. I was in the same division. I

(08:37):
know how difficult it is to play up there, and
you literally throw the game away after your behavior, your holdout,
Like now it becomes about you and only you, and
you cannot win team sports with a player like that.
I don't care how good he is, so ultimate team sport, right.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
It doesn't work, the ultimate team sport. And this is
what I've never understood, and in fact, I love to
ask you this because this I watch players get pulled
in two directions at once. When there's a contract holdout.
Every player is going to say the same thing publicly,

(09:21):
and I think privately they'll mostly think it too. Dude,
get yours, Get yours, because I don't want to pocket
watch number one and number two. You get more, I
get more, everybody gets more, and players deserve more because
of the lack of guarantees in the NFL. So I
am all like I get it. I understand the need

(09:44):
to draw a hard line stance contractually.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
At the same time.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
There are unique lines that get drawn and crossed, I
would argue by players who hold out either at times
that they shouldn't or in ways that they shouldn't, and
it craters the team.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
And I really want to know you tell me.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
Now in the locker room what actually happens when a
wide receiver essentially makes up a new deadline Jamar Chase.
I mean, I guess anyone can hold out any time
he held out before his fourth year.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
You normally would do it after your.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Fourth year, Ceedee Lamb, Brandon Nyuk after your fourth year,
not before. It don't make up a deadline that's not
even there. That's number one. And then on the flip side,
then there'll be someone like a Brandon Ayuk who sat
out an entire training camp demanding a trade that at

(10:47):
the last minute, when they were ready to pull it off,
he ran upstairs and said, please don't trade me, and
then admitted when he showed up at camp that he
was a pain in the rear and probably handled that
incorrectly down this and oh, by the way, he's got
like four catches in two games. And the Niners are
one and one. I like, you tell me, where do

(11:11):
we draw the line between hey, dude, get yours? Yeah,
you and dude and dude, you're letting the team down.

Speaker 4 (11:18):
There is a timeline for all of this, and as players,
we know what the timeline is.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
They understand. Yo, br I don't know what you're doing.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Right.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
You're still on your going into your fourth year of
your rookie contract. You you don't get to dictate. No,
teams aren't gonna Why would a team do that. Dallas
is the only team that would do something like that.
They're like, no, man, what are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (11:48):
Now?

Speaker 3 (11:49):
It becomes about I gotta get mine?

Speaker 2 (11:50):
I got it?

Speaker 4 (11:51):
What if I get hurt? Yeah, you still on the
rookie contract. Though everybody can go out and get hurt.
Everybody can, it's football. That can't be the reason why
you want to jump the line. But even with that,

(12:11):
I know why you were so upset because before that catch,
you had three catches for thirty yards, targeted five times,
caught three of them, targeted four times, caught three of
them for thirty yards. That made your fourth catch for
thirty five yards. That's why you're upset that's why you

(12:32):
can't control yourself. So you feel like something has been
you've been wronged during a play, and you lash out
because you're holding on to everything else that a selfish
person would hand hold on to. Why the tight ends
getting all the targets? Why in the first half I

(12:54):
think Joe Burrow had completed one hundred and you know,
thirty three yards passing to the tight ends because that's
what was available.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
That's what you do.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
And so I know, internally, just best based on his
actions and his press conference last week, that internally he
feels a certain type of way, which is also led
by he's trying to prove his worth and so he
feels like he's not getting the opportunity, maybe because of

(13:27):
the whold out. And so now all of this stuff
starts swirling around in the player's head and you get
an incident like you just had about an hour and
ten minutes ago to lose a game, and guys in
the locker room are not here for it.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
They are not here for it.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Not like that shouldn't be, they shouldn't be. All right, Yeah,
let's we can continue with more into that. Plus got
three teams that have already served notice we're here and
we're not go own anywhere.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
You might want to open your eyes.

Speaker 1 (14:02):

Tyreck dot com studios.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
Yeah, the Chiefs came back and I see you social media.
I know you've decided that the Kansas City Chiefs and
the refs is a little bit of that too, our
corporate partners.

Speaker 5 (15:49):
Man.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
It really seems like Jess f yi, I feel you.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
But I will say this, not pass interference at the
end of the game.

Speaker 3 (16:01):
That's past interference. Is I know you.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
Don't want to hear that. Some of you I know,
and I know you could like I know you've seen worse.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
Not called I feel you. I got you. Slow it down.
Watch the video you run through the back of the
receiver with contact. I don't know what to tell you.
That's past interference. It's past interference. So you got an argument, but.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Not on that play.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
That's what I would say.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
You can argue all you want last for about last
week's game, because that was crazy.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Ooh that one.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Yeah, that one's different. That one's different. Hey, they're just
getting started. I know these are your boys. You want
to say anything about the Bears in Texas tonight.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
Yeah, Look, I'm excited about this game, two young quarterbacks.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Playing.

Speaker 4 (16:57):
I'm a Houston guy, of Houston, but I grew up
a Bears fan. You know, I was born in Chicago,
and I grew up a Bears fan so that I
almost went there in free agency one time.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
And Lovely was the coach. Money just wasn't right, you know,
I just that just goesn't quite right.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
But I'm excited about this game to young talents, and
let's just see if, if you know, the Bears as
a whole offensively can take a step towards being h
an offense that can actually move the ball, score points,

(17:39):
so on and so forth. Caleb Williams, can he, you know,
pass for one hundred yards? Can he not turn the ball?
All of those things, all those things you wanted to
want to see from a young quarterback. I mean I
say that because if you watched the Carolina game, which
no one did, Bryce young hasn't.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
He didn't throw for over one hundred yards either.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Now, now, I'm sorry to laugh, but that's just a
very funny bar to set get them. I get it,
and I'd argue, look not that nobody is above mistakes.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Uh c J.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Strouding included, however, a good reminder for the Bears defense,
you're not playing Will Lews today.

Speaker 5 (18:16):
I know you are not.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
And Will will.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Has has got a reputation that's growing real fast. Now, boy,
that that he would like to once a game do
the stupidest thing that anyone's done all day.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
Like the thing that you will be like, please don't do.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
No low motion like somewhere Garoppolo and Arlovsky, who both
have walked out of the back of end zones, are like,
have you seen Will Levis play?

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (18:47):
So uh CJ will be better And and you're right.
If the Bears want to succeed today, they're going to
have to get something from.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
They're gonna have to This team isn't gonna Houston is
not gonna just get them opportunities. They're well coached, they
got talent across the board, and it's going to be difficult.
Just reliant, just display right, now Nick's on a jet
sweep which seemingly had nowhere to go.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
We just gained.

Speaker 7 (19:22):
Game.

Speaker 4 (19:22):
I mean, you're going to have to show up and
you're gonna have to play, and you're gonna have to
play on both sides of the ball.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Hey, can I throw three teams at you?

Speaker 3 (19:31):
You can throw them and I'm gonna catch.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
I'm gonna throw three teams at you. I want you
to give me like real or fake? Okay with regard
to what we're seeing from them, because all three of
them have had surprisingly good starts.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Okay, so real or fake Tampa Bay Bucks Real?

Speaker 1 (19:52):
I agree with.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
You completely, Big.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
I pheel in a leadership role where he's comfortable, he
feels uh, there's no pressure, there's no pressure at all.
Just watching him play and some of the things that
he he's been doing, it's amazing. That's what you want
in the leader. Literally. You know, he reminds me of

(20:16):
He reminds me of Jake Plumber. I had Jake one
year in Denver, and I knew that Jake would do
anything to try to win. I knew being in the
huddle if someone was on his back, he would try
to throw it with his left like he wanted to

(20:38):
win so bad, and what it allowed us to do
is we fought as well, so he thought we fought.
So I see a lot of those similarities in Baker.
He's not considered a mobile quarterback. But what do we
see him do today?

Speaker 2 (20:53):
I mean, I mean that that was the game winning.

Speaker 4 (20:56):
Play, right, Like in a hostile environment it's difficult to
play in. That's right, And when you see someone step
up to it like that and and just put it
all out there, you can respect that. And even if
you have an interception or make a mistake, like what happens?
Do you you know? Do you know going to your

(21:17):
shell or do you step out of it?

Speaker 3 (21:19):
And you keep going? And you keep going.

Speaker 4 (21:21):
He was their leading rusher, which you know they don't
want to make a habit out of. They got to
clean that up. But I think with him leading, I
think they're a routine.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Okay, next New Orleans Saints.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
Oh real, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
What the hell going on. It's one thing to.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
Wow, wow, something going on down there in the Bayou.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Man, both sides of the ball.

Speaker 4 (21:47):
Hey man, you want to know who leading the league
is scoring? It's not the Chiefs is not you know, Miami,
it's not. It's the New Orleans Saints. They blockbuster numbers.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
Last one before we get to our main man, the
Minnesota Vikings.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
Oh they're real. Minnesota Vikings are real.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
And and I say it because just watching them play,
it's not so much about one person, right, It's not
so much oh the quarterback, even though Sam Donald is
playing lights out, he's playing lights out.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Yeah. If there's some good balls today, no doubt.

Speaker 4 (22:38):
It's that they're a team that understands that people don't
expect anything from in the yellow skew. They beat up
on the Giants last week, and so you're like, but
the forty nine ers are the toast of the town
in the NFC. They are CEMC or not. And so

(23:01):
now you stood there toe to toe and you punched
him in the mouth. You took some punches and you
came out victorious. So yeah, they are real. And you
know what else is real?

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Who?

Speaker 3 (23:13):
It's one guy we.

Speaker 4 (23:14):
Have on our staff who is not Ai. Even though
his voice is calm and soothing, soothing like Ai. He
is a real person and he's real good. And that's
one Stephen are to say.

Speaker 8 (23:29):
Not Ai and not as either.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
No, but I kind of want to hear that now,
like an AI version of Steve de segaselves up.

Speaker 4 (23:38):
It was down, Jake, it would be yeah, it would
It would sound exactly the same, like.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
Like forget Alexa.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
You could ask it things about sports in your house,
so they would just be like.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
In Dallas and one like you. It would just spit
it out right, Hey, Steve.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
In nineteen forty one, they Saiicago Bears.

Speaker 8 (24:02):
You know, like when Al Michaels they did his AI
voice for the Olympic recap this summer. He didn't actually
get in a studio every night. They just worked it
that way.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Oh my gosh, we're already there. Yeah, absolutely, we're Oh,
I know, we're there. Yep.

Speaker 8 (24:17):
So my stat along those lines is that Giants loss.
First off, you lose a game by three where you
miss all three extra points at Washington they missed one
kick and two passes. So Washington twenty one eighteen the final.
And the thing is Washington only had seven drives and
they went seven for seven on field goals and won

(24:37):
the game, including the game winning thirty yarder on the
final play. So how about this from Associated Press has
a team ever? And the answer is only once since
two thousand has a team ever had three more touchdowns
than their opponent and still lost the game. The Texans
in two thousand and seven did. That's the one loss

(24:59):
since and in this situation, the win loss record for
people in that situation you score at least three more
touchdowns in your opponent one thousand and two thirty two
and one.

Speaker 9 (25:10):
Oh, that's a good record. And two and it's an
oh one two record. Two by the way, So do.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
Your whole thing.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
And then I want to circle back to this game
because I have a question for both of you, specifically
about one of the plays.

Speaker 8 (25:27):
All Right, okay, Houston, We've got the Sunday night game.
Texans up three to nothing in the early minutes, hosting
the Bears. Wide receiver Keenan Allen with the heel injury,
is out, but rookie wide receiver Roman Dunza is active.
The Monday night game is Philadelphia hosting Atlanta. Eagles wide
receiver aj Brown out with a bad hamstring. Kansas City
wins on a fifty one yard field goal on the

(25:49):
final play by Harrison Butker twenty six twenty five over Cincinnati.
A fourth and sixteen pass interference on the Bengals was
key with about forty seconds left. Pittsburgh is two and
after winning thirteen to six at Denver. The Broncos had
one first down in the first quarter, only three by halftime.
Sixty two total yards in the first half for Denver.

(26:11):
Arizona blitz the Rams forty one to ten. Kyler Murray
three touchdown passes, two to Marvin Harrison Junior on the
cards first two drives James Conner over one hundred and
twenty yards rushing and a score. And we have injury
updates for the Rams. Wide receiver Cooper cup left with
an ankle injury late first half. He's in a walking boot. Already,
wide receiver Puukainakua is on injured reserve with a spring pcl.

(26:34):
The injury for the Kansas City Chiefs is the ankle
for running back Isaiah Pacheco. He has left the stadium
on crutches and a walking boot. Tests tomorrow. Las Vegas
comes back somehow to win at Baltimore twenty six. Twenty three.
Vegas had as little offense as Denver and some of
the other teams will be mentioning, and they still won

(26:54):
the game on a thirty eight yard field goal with
about thirty seconds left. Raiders were down ten with ten
minutes to go. Cleveland an eighteen thirteen winner at Jacksonville.
Chargers won easily at Carolina twenty six to three. Yeah,
that Washington went over the Giants. We'll get back to that.
Seattle won in overtime at New England twenty three to twenty.
Jason Myers three for three on field goals, forty four

(27:15):
yarder at the end of the first half, thirty eight
yarder with about one minute left in regulation, and the
game winning overtime field goal from thirty one. Minnesota beat
San Francisco twenty three to seventeen. Justin Jefferson left with
a bruce squad. He says it's not serious. He had
four receptions one hundred and thirty three yards in a
score Jets won at Tennessee twenty four to seventeen. Green

(27:36):
Bay over Indy sixteen to ten. Tampa Bay's two and
oh after winning at Detroit twenty to sixteen despite four
and a half sacks from the Lions Aiden Hutchinson and
New Orleans is two and oh after winning at Dallas
forty four nineteen. Alvin Kamara four total touchdowns. NASCAR's playoff
race today at the Glenn went to Chris Buscher in overtime.
AP College Football polled Texas Texas for the first time

(27:59):
in sixteen years Noumber one, Georgia down to number two
and back to you. As we mentioned, Washington with the
home win over the Giants. Brian Robinson seventeen carries one
hundred and thirty three yards.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Okay, so I'm sitting there with my lovely lady and
my lovely daughter watching football this morning, and my daughter
asked a question that's the opposite of the one you
usually get. Instead of saying, Hey, who's the best coach
in the NFL, she goes said, Dad, who's the worst coach?

Speaker 3 (28:24):
Run?

Speaker 1 (28:26):
And I go, well, that's kind of hard to answer,
you know what I mean, Like, especially this early in
the season. But as we're having the conversation, red zone
is on and the Giants have gotten a Wandale Robinson
touchdown to go up eighteen to fifteen fourth quarter with

(28:47):
eleven thirty two to go in the game, and I
saw it out of the corner of my eye, and
I'm starting to think about names.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
I'm like, I don't even know how to answer that question.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
And then I watch Daniel Jones overthrow someone in the
end zone on the two point conversion try. They're up
eighteen to fifteen with eleven thirty to go, and they
went for a two point conversion try. I'm not sure

(29:18):
what analytics told anyone, not that they did whatever they
whatever they told them. If they told you that, they lied.
And so I see the ball go over the guy's
head and it was like the little light bulb went off.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
Dang.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
I go, hey, honey, I can answer your question now.
His name's Brian d. Ball and he is the head
coach for the New York Giants. Come to find out
that earlier in the game, just before half, yes, Malik
Neighbors scored a touchdown to give the Giants a three
point advantage headed to the break, and the Giants went

(29:59):
from two and also didn't get that.

Speaker 8 (30:04):
Also a Daniel Jones pass incomplete.

Speaker 3 (30:07):
What the hell are they doing anything?

Speaker 8 (30:10):
We can't mention this enough. The Giants missed all three
extra points and lost by three. This is like you
remember when Appalachian State got the upset at Michigan years ago.
It turns out Michigan missed two two point conversions and
lost by two. You didn't have to go for two
either of those times.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
Right, right, But and sometimes you get the whole Oh,
we don't have to go for two. These were situations
that screamed to.

Speaker 4 (30:37):
Me, don't go for two, like doing anything. That's what's
happening now.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
You go up by four with eleven thirty to go.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
Washington's not even in a position to kick these field
goals that won the game.

Speaker 8 (30:51):
And it's almost scoring goal for it. You can win
doing exactly what you're doing. You get five sacks on
the rookie quarterback. The one positive for the Giant I
must add Daniel Jones in having a couple of touchdown passes.
He now since he signed the big contract, he now
has more touchdown passes to his own team than he
does pick sixes. So there's that. Just as of today,

(31:15):
he crossed that threshold.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
I just I didn't understand. I don't mind.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
I don't you know, I don't. Can someone explain it
or no? Is there just no explaining.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
It's no explaining it. Burn it all down, tear down,
tear down.

Speaker 4 (31:31):
Now this goes back to their decisions that they made
last year. Yes, yes, I mean it Once you make
a decision like that, it spirals out of control. And
that's what we're seeing. No one understood why you were

(31:51):
doing that. You did it anyway, and now we're watching
it just implode. We watched it happen last year, we're
watching it happen right now. And it didn't even have
to be like this.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
Oh God, Like, I give him credit for one thing, guys,
one thing and one thing only. And you and I
talked about this a couple of weeks ago. Malik Neighbors
is phenomenal. That was unreary relative football man. But here's
something I made.

Speaker 8 (32:26):
The targeted those neighbors eighteen times.

Speaker 1 (32:29):
Out of twenty eight throws. You can't do that in
the NFL.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
No, it's great.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
It's great for his fantasy numbers. If Bill Belichick were coaching,
he'd be laughing his you know what, off you can't
just do one thing on offense over and over and
over again because the defense is going to be like, oh, oh,
I think I get it now. Twenty eight throws, eighteen

(32:57):
of them targeting militias.

Speaker 8 (33:00):
This is the NFL coach of the year you are
talking about from two short seasons ago.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Yeah, that like We've seen this perform in sports. Sometimes
playoff success is the worst thing that can happen to
a team. And the Giants win in Minnesota a couple
of years.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Ago, that was awful.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
It is going to end up being the worst playoff win.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
YEP turned everything on its head.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
Forty million for Daniel Jones, a few more years for
Brian Dayball, all of.

Speaker 8 (33:31):
It Barkley, and they didn't show up essentially the next
week and losing in the playoffs at Philly.

Speaker 3 (33:37):
Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (33:38):
Can you imagine if they have elague neighbors and Sakwon
Barkley and a young quarterback, any other quarterback than Daniel
Jones right now?

Speaker 3 (33:47):
Any other one?

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Okay, you gave me three reels on some surprising positive starts.
What about the surprising negative starts?

Speaker 2 (33:56):
We'll get to.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
That coming up next. Tirerack dot com Studios with Ephrom Salam.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Live all right at tyrag dot com Studios. I do
want to add something and thanks to everyone who tweeted
in something that was left out of the most recent conversation,
which is that the Giants kicker got hurt.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
Now let me double down.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
Still don't get it, Okay, So everybody who's like, hey, dummy,
the Giants kicker was hurt.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
You don't have a punter. Do you know that?

Speaker 1 (34:42):
I and I hate doing this in sports when people
are like trying to be so sarcastic that they're like
me and three of my buddies could run Kyle shanahands
off it. No, you couldn't stop it. But you know
what I could do, ephrom I kick an extra point.
I kick an extra point. Zeroed out in my mind,

(35:04):
I've done it. I could kick an extra point. You're
telling me your punter can't kick an extra point, and
I know the extra points a little longer now.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
But ah, it's still not make any sense to me.
You gotta don't make any sense to me.

Speaker 3 (35:25):
You gotta give yourself an opportunity.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
And by the way, uh, they're saying that the.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
Right that this injury happened on the opening kickoff, right,
what they do on their very first touchdown tried to
kick an extra point.

Speaker 10 (35:49):
Yeah, now, that didn't go in.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
It didn't go in.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
So I get it. You're assessing, you're sessing math at
all points. What's more likely x y Z. I don't know, Man,
NFL team, I got a hard time believing you don't
have somebody else who kick an extra point.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
Well, you work on that, You work on that in
in practice, you work on it like you know punters, kickers,
you know field goal kickers, punters. Some punters kick off,
some phield goal kickers kick off right like it it rotates.

(36:31):
You got to So if the punter got hurt, who
would would you not punt? You just go for it
every fourth down?

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Yeah? Apparently apparently. All right, let's hop into this a
little bit. Now.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
The standings are already interesting. Nobody's clinched a playoff spot,
and nobody's been eliminated. Now we got some We got
some pretty interesting oh and two out there, some real
interesting zero and two's, And there might even be some
concerning one and ones, which we'll get to a little
bit later, but that's not that concerning on any level.

(37:12):
But let's start, because to me, there's four of them
that are are discussion worthy.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Let's jump right to the biggest of them all.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
I cannot imagine a worst start to the year for
the reigning MVP.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
Than what has happened with the Baltimore Ravens.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
It's one thing on a Thursday night opener and his
toe was on the line and all of that stuff
against the Champs. Nothing embarrassing about what happened last week.
But then when you're given a week and a half
of rest, your home opener and a ten point fourth
quarter lead against the Gardner Minshew led Las Vegas Raiders,

(37:51):
I'm gonna give you a big old what the hell
was that?

Speaker 2 (37:55):
What the hell was that?

Speaker 3 (37:58):
Yeah, that's that's tough.

Speaker 4 (38:03):
So when you look at their two losses, you're in
Kansas City, have an opportunity to win the game or
tie it up, toe on the line.

Speaker 3 (38:15):
Okay, we get it. It's Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
Oh and by the way, that conversation we were talking
about earlier about Kansas City and the refs, Yeah, we
get it. We understand it was some it was some
wild things happening against the Bengals. I mean, excuse me,
against the Ravens in that game last week, just to

(38:39):
throw that out there for sure, And so I don't
know if they underestimated the Raiders because they don't have
a quarterback per se. But they still got a defense
and that defense was humming. And Gardner Minshew is not
is not a garden tool. He is is a he's

(39:01):
a really I mean thirty for thirty eight, two seventy six.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
Yeah, he can play a little bit. Oh he can
play it like he looked good.

Speaker 3 (39:09):
He can look good.

Speaker 4 (39:10):
And so not quite sure if they figured, you know,
we this was gonna be a cakewalk being at home. Yeah,
they didn't come out with the type of energy they
needed to come out with and seize the game. Games
like this, you gotta take the game. You gotta take
it over early. You're at home. You gotta snatch the

(39:32):
momentum and hold on to it and make the opposing
team think about what's going on.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
Wow, they didn't, they didn't. Obviously they didn't do that.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
I mean a couple quick observations on this, and I'd
have to go back and watch the film to see
if the Raiders were spying or doing something really smart.
But I know that Lamar gets hit with a whole
lot of dudes. You can't run that much, well, yeah,
you kind of do, like Lamar has to do what
makes Lamar special. I understand the dangers involved with that,

(40:06):
But he carried the ball only forty only five times
nine yards per carry.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
I'd love to see more. I'd love to see more.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Oh and I'd also love to give a shout out
to everybody who spent half their free agent budget on
Isaiah Likely. I try to tell you, I told you
last week was the best game he was gonna have
all year.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
And yeah, two.

Speaker 1 (40:31):
Catches twenty six yards Isaiah Likely. So all right, there's
more to say on that game and some other O
and two's that we need to get to coming up next.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
Week two in the National Football League.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
We are watching along as the second to the last
game of the week is coming up and unfolding in
front of US.

Speaker 2 (40:54):
CJ.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Stroud de Nico Collins. The Texans lead this one ten
to three. We're broadcasting live from the ti raq dot
com studios. Ti rac dot com will help you get
there an unmatched selection, fast free shipping, freeerodazid protection in
over ten thousand recommended installers. Ti rat dot com the
way tire buying should be. All right, So I didn't

(41:16):
really get to the question I wanted to ask you,
which is what is the level of concern with the
zero and two start for the Baltimore Ravens.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
I think there's some concern there. I think they're having
a little identity issues. You got weapons, you got everything
you need, just learning and figuring out how to use them,

(41:51):
and again not having a lot of time in preseason
terms for the ones to get together and jail. We're
seeing it the first two weeks of the season. You know,
the teams that we thought would be a little bit
different are struggling a little bit. And so when I

(42:13):
look at Baltimore and they were in the close game
last week, they're in the close game this week. They
just got to finish. They had some key departures on
that defensive side of the ball, most notably Queen, and
they have a workhorse now and Derick Henry, and so

(42:35):
just learning how to mesh Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson together.
It's gonna take a little bit of time because they
both can take over a game, right We saw Lamar
rush for one hundred yards over one hundred yards last week,
and Dereck Henry didn't do much of anything. So you
gotta find what that balance is they have enough talent

(42:57):
and they're well coached enough to where and when it's
all said and done in December January, they'll be right
where they need to be. So I'm not too concerned
with just, you know, the zero to two record for them.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
I should say we kind of already touched on the
Cincinnati Bengals, but maybe not from that perspective, which is
what did you expect them to be right now and
them to be this year? And my quick answer on
this is that before the season even started, I felt
like there were problems, not because of talent, not because

(43:37):
I thought this, that or the other about their schedule
or anything, but I just thought that you can hear,
and this is mainly Jamar Chase, but you can hear
when you listen to the guys talk and you kind
of see where they're coming from.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
It just felt disjointed.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
It feels to me like that is a group that
has not spent any time coming together during training camp.

Speaker 3 (44:06):
Yeah. I mean they're a mess for real, seriously.

Speaker 4 (44:11):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
And it starts with with you know your guy, that
that Jamar Chase thing.

Speaker 4 (44:19):
Man, that's a difficult situation to navigate someone that talented
and that selfish can really shake up the locker room
and and have you off kilter. They have been comfor there.
They've gotten comfortable starting zero and two. They've gotten comfortable

(44:40):
struggling in September because ultimately, you know, two of the
last three years they've made the playoffs and so on
and so forth. One super Bowl. But that that's not
going to work because teams around you are getting better.

(45:01):
And if you feel like and if you think you
can make up that time when everything starts to click,
then you guys are in trouble.

Speaker 7 (45:09):
Man.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
You're you're You're in a division right now that is
gonna be unmerciful. And you're at the bottom of that division.
You are You're at the bottom of that division. And
it's it's it's going to be difficult, right because even

(45:34):
talking about the Baltimore Ravens and they're ow and too,
they still look like a better team than you.

Speaker 3 (45:40):
Oh you know, so, so you figure they're going to
get it together.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
I agree with you.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
However, when you just said that that division is sort
of relentless, unmerciful.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
Against each other, against each other, not not just.

Speaker 1 (45:58):
Say this, I'll just say that I think a little
bit less of the division than I did two weeks.

Speaker 3 (46:03):
Oh well, of course, yeah, I got that.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
That's all.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
The Steelers are the two and zero team. They've scored
one touchdown this year. The Cleveland Browns, I don't even
know what like, they're completely hamstrong with the Deshaun Watson thing.
I would still favorite Baltimore, but they are already two
games out, and here we are talking about the Bengals.
The way we're talking about the Bengals. It's it's it's good.

(46:27):
It's not what I thought it was though.

Speaker 4 (46:30):
Yeah, no, it is definitely not what I thought it
was gonna be. But what I'm saying is, you know,
once they get into these divisional matches, it's you know,
they're going to eat each other.

Speaker 3 (46:43):
They're gonna eat each other.

Speaker 4 (46:44):
They play against each other well, they really step up
and step out against each other. And so I mean,
how about those Steelers, because I know we'll get there eventually.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
But who I mean, defense looks real good. Defense looks
real good.

Speaker 1 (47:01):
But I mean, you know, I mean you you were
very very unimpressed last week with what you saw from
bow Knicks, and I would imagine that maybe you are again.

Speaker 4 (47:11):
Oh yeah, it's gonna take him some time. Look, he
has talent. Bow Knicks has talent, and I don't want
to make it seem like he's not talented, because he is.
He's just it's the game is moving fast for him,
way too fast. Good and its gracious.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
C J.

Speaker 3 (47:28):
Stroud is a real deal.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Brother.

Speaker 3 (47:30):
Oh my god, I know Carolina anyway, Yeah that.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Was hell the play Carolina Pitts Bryce Young over though.

Speaker 3 (47:39):
Man, oh man, something you can't come back from.

Speaker 2 (47:43):
No beautiful. Just so people know what we're talking about.

Speaker 1 (47:47):
CJ is able to avoid a rush that's coming at
him from both sides, and he's able to move back
and just buy enough time as he rolls out to
his right, and he's tackled as he throws and just
hits Nico Collins with a dot, just an absolute dot,
for a first down into a bear's territory. And yeah,
that's the kind of stuff like whatever. I don't know

(48:10):
what that looks like at a box score. There are
very very few quarterbacks in the NFL can do what
we just watched.

Speaker 4 (48:16):
It looks easy, yep, it looks easy, man, It looks
I mean he pressure was in his face right now,
two defenders. There's no panic there's no freak out. I mean, goodness,
gracious man. But anyway, back to Justin Fields, just watching
him play, Look, one hundred and seventeen yards passing, I

(48:41):
get it. Not turn the ball over right twenty six
yards on the ground. Whatever is happening, it's they're two
and oh. They're two and oh. And I said it
last week. If they win this game, then we don't

(49:02):
have to worry about Russell Wilson coming in and and
and and taking this position when he's healthy. And I
think it's Justin Feel's position to lose. I believe that.
I believe it's it's his position to lose.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
Well, they're gonna have a hard time taking them out
as long as they're undefeated at mid of them they're winning. Yeah, yeah, absolutely,
that's a that's a formula. It is very very difficult
to make a move.

Speaker 11 (49:31):
It become sort of political, you know, the locker room
even Yeah, especially if you in the and and the
and and Russ shouldn't want that because if they go
out there and they lose, it's.

Speaker 4 (49:45):
His fault no matter what happens. Of course, and you
don't want you you don't want to be a part
of that.

Speaker 2 (49:52):
You wore the Texans uniform.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
Assuming they win the night, they're going to be two
games ahead of another uniform war, and that would be
the Jacksonville Jaguars. All right, let's talk. Let's talk about
the Jags. Not that anybody thought they would be world
beaters this year. The Texans are certainly the favorite, but
they were the favorite to win the division last year.

(50:15):
They gagged it away at the end. The year before that,
they won a playoff game. They just gave Trevor Lawrence
fifty five million dollars.

Speaker 2 (50:23):
How we doing not good? How we doing not good?

Speaker 4 (50:32):
Man? It's uh, oh, look the talent is there, but
it's just they're not getting they're going to be in
the fight, right, they're going to be in the fight.

Speaker 2 (50:51):
Well, I think they're better than the Titans and the Colts,
Yes I do. I do, but yeah, and actually I
would say top to bottom. I'm not sure.

Speaker 1 (51:02):
And we're two weeks in, but the AFC might be
lacking a little bit of the juice I thought they had.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
Oh it's not even close to the Jets that they
had last year.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
I think that that's safe when you look at teams
like the Jets, the Dolphins, the Ravens, the Bengals.

Speaker 2 (51:19):
The Jags.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
When you look at that, that's a group that was
supposed to sort of talk about the depth of the AFC.
And not that those teams are all eliminated or anything
like that, but they have been underwhelming. And now some
of them are obviously dealing with significant situations, such as
the Dolphins, and we'll get to that.

Speaker 4 (51:39):
Yeah, And it doesn't get any easier for Jacksonville because
now he got to go on the road to Buffalo
Monday night. And like you stumbled through the first two games,
and now you're about to reach an impass where you
know this door is going to swing back on your

(52:00):
face now because you got the Bills, you got the Texans.
That could be very well. Oh and four four, yep,
could be that could be four And it is hard
to get from under that rock.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
I got one more for you. And it's so fascinating,
you know this, how quickly things can change in the
National Football League. And we sat here together exactly seven
days ago and things were looking one way, and then
Kyron Williams, is a young running back, took the ball

(52:41):
around the left side and was running and then headed
right out of bounds. And that stopped the clock, and
that was a key, key moment in the Lions rallying
to beat the Los Angeles Rams in over time.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Flash forward seven days later, Poking Akua is on.

Speaker 1 (53:04):
I are Cooper Cups got a walking boot and you
just got handed a thirty one point loss to a
team that people don't think is really all that good.
Talk to me about the zero to two Los Angeles
Rams might be my vote actually, all things considered, for
the worst start to the NFL season.

Speaker 3 (53:27):
Yeah, they.

Speaker 4 (53:30):
First of all, shout out to Kyler Murray and the Cardinals.
It just feels different. The energy is different there, The
attention to detail from Kyler is different. And Marvin Harris
Junior Harrison Jr. Is a is the real deal. This

(53:50):
brother is some special for the Rams. They're on third
string offensive line members, Like their left tackle shouldn't even
be playing, like real talk, like he shouldn't even be
in the game because he's not ready, not that he

(54:12):
won't get to be ready, and not everybody can come
in and can play.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
It takes some time.

Speaker 4 (54:19):
And they're missing key pieces of the offensive line receivers.
I mean, they're literally the walking wounded. In the second
week of the season.

Speaker 2 (54:32):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 3 (54:34):
And so it's all it's all downhill. It is over now.
I mean like you can't replace that level of talent
with just anybody.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Right now.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
Based on what I've read and heard, they'd be lucky
to get Pooka back before November.

Speaker 2 (54:56):
That's where that sits. And then I have no idea.

Speaker 1 (54:59):
Obviously we don't know the severity of Cooper Cup, but
we know that he's in a boot, and we know
what's been going on with Cooper Cup the last couple
of years. And now you're looking at a defense that
got worn out today. And oh, by the way, here
come to San Francisco forty nine ers next Sunday.

Speaker 4 (55:14):
I mean to to ed Well, Jordan Whittington, Whitington, I
mean DeMarcus Robinson, Kobe Parkinson. Yeah, what is happening right now?

Speaker 2 (55:29):
Not good things, not good.

Speaker 4 (55:32):
And that's the issue with the Rams. They're this thing
is about the spiral because they just don't they're not
healthy and they don't play any starters in the in
the preseason.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
No, they don't.

Speaker 1 (55:48):
How about that point, it's a good point. Yeah, they
got a bunch of people who are still waiting to
play football. Okay, it's Mark Witherne from Salam'm glad you
are with us. Coming up next with everything we've said,
there's a quarterback whose name I don't even think we've
brought up yet, and to.

Speaker 2 (56:04):
Me, we got to talk about this man because.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
He has been very disappointing to start the year, to
the point where I wonder what the organization is talking
about behind closed doors with him, and so we'll get
to that coming up next on Fox Sports Radio. All
right here it is Liventhetie right dot Com Studios with
me from Salam. Mark Wardweek two National Football League.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
Anthony Richardson looks horrible.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
He looks absolutely and completely horrible, and so like, we
sort of never got around to being given the opportunity
to assess Anthony Richardson as a quarterback because he's such

(57:01):
a beast running the ball and did it so aggressively
to start his career last year and got hurt so
fast that.

Speaker 2 (57:09):
Poof he was gone, and we never really had anything
to say.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Other than, boy, we have to have a conversation about,
you know, can Anthony run like this and isn't sustainable
And the same thing we often do with running quarterbacks,
but especially one like him, because he really he puts
that body out there sometimes and does not shy away,
and I admire that in him. The problem is is

(57:36):
the rest of the stuff. It's the quarterbacking part. And
I had a feeling the Packers were gonna win today.
The whole world just decided, well, the Colts are favored
because Malik Willis has got to play. And I'm like, ah, so,
Anthony Richardson, who kept hucking the ball over his receivers
heads against Houston last week and missed multiple touchdown passes,

(58:00):
He's going to go into lambeau Field and just light
the Packers up.

Speaker 2 (58:04):
I doubt it. Three interceptions later, seventeen incompletions later, Packers win.

Speaker 3 (58:15):
Yeah, Malik Willis played extremely well.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
Didn't turn the ball over nope, within.

Speaker 4 (58:19):
Himself, missed on two passes twelve or fourteen one and
twenty two yards a.

Speaker 7 (58:26):
Touchdown, rushed for forty one. That's a that's a solid
game and get the win.

Speaker 4 (58:40):
Yep, Hey man, Look, Anthony Richardson, Everyone who's drafted, and
this goes for any position. Everyone who's drafted doesn't necessarily

(59:06):
turn out to be or reach their potential. Our expectation
that's a real thing. Like we don't see it like that,
especially when it comes to the quarterback position, because the
expectation for first round draft pick quarterbacks or quarterbacks in
general are extremely high. You have to be able to

(59:29):
do this thing right. Don't turn the ball over, don't
overthrow your receivers, you know, be on target, be able
to run the offense, don't panic in the face of adversity.
Like there's a list of things we want our quarterbacks
to do. Now, what we've learned is, you know, over time,

(59:51):
people come from different types of college systems and so
on and so forth, and so you know, a lot
of times the responsibility is taking out of the hands
of the quarterback. You goat coaches calling and making plays
and stuff like that, you know what I mean, Like

(01:00:15):
get up to the line, the defense change and then
everybody stand up and look over to the left or
look over to the right, and the coach changes the play,
whether it be holding up a card. Now they can
talk to the player, so they now they can communicate
with the headsets in college now, so there's not a
lot of onus on being able to read defenses yourself,

(01:00:38):
be able to check out of plays, things like that.
So you find yourself in situations where you get to
the league and the league doesn't slow down and wait
for you. It doesn't slow down and wait for you
to catch up. And so your natural thing to do
with the quarterback position is to fall back on the

(01:00:59):
thing that you know you can do well, and for
athletic quarterbacks that's take off and run. And you know
once you feel like that's the answer. First reads, not there,
I'm going first reads, not there, I'm going right. That's
not how you play quarterback. And until you learn how

(01:01:24):
to really truly understand the nuance of defense, actually know
your plays, like when you see a defense, you know
exactly who's going to be open when the ball is
snapped right. That's a skill that takes some time to develop.

(01:01:50):
And if you spend the majority of your rookie season hurt,
it's difficult to develop that skill.

Speaker 3 (01:01:58):
Just watching.

Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
Others do it it helps, But being in situation situational
football and then going back and reviewing what you did
or what you didn't do in those situations, that's how
you learn that those are the things and the tools
that help you progress. It's not working with help with

(01:02:25):
Anthony Richards.

Speaker 2 (01:02:26):
Yeah, no, not yet. You want to know how to
play quarterback.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
It's real easy.

Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
Listen to this. Here come Steve de Seger. He'll show you.

Speaker 3 (01:02:34):
He will show you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:35):
There you go.

Speaker 8 (01:02:36):
What's this good evening? Once again, gentlemen, cuts down, go ahead,
we will get to the Sunday night NFL game. It
is a ten point Houston lead at home late second
quarter against Chicago. But two things to point out. One,
there was a medical emergency on the sidelines during the
Ravens home game against the Raiders today. A member of
the NFL Chain Gang at that contest is now in

(01:03:00):
good condition after collapsing. That's the update from the hospital tonight.
As the Ravens head coach said after the game, I'm
just grateful that he was revived. This happened in the
second quarter and there was a delay of five plus
minutes to the game. Both teams took off their helmets,
took a knee on the field. Someone along the sideline
was needing medical attention require chess compressions. It was a

(01:03:22):
member of the chain Gang who had collapsed and in
fact passed out according to the sideline report, but did
regain consciousness. The Ravens during the game, the Ravens statement
was that he was alert and responsive, transported from the
stadium to a hospital. Again, the update tonight he is
in good condition. The other thing is we already see

(01:03:43):
the difference Jim Harbaugh is making on the Chargers. Granted,
they may not be a playoff team this year, and
the two opponents they've had so far may not be
playoff teams. But how many times since they drafted Justin
Herbert in the first round has he had to score
twenty eight thirty points or they don't win the game
because they couldn't stop anybody and passing was the identity here,

(01:04:07):
Rushing is the identity. They have a healthy enough defense,
and the Chargers just won back to back games while
throwing for less than one hundred and fifty yards in each.
In the Chargers pass happy history, that had only happened
once since nineteen sixty one. Wow, And something that actually
happened today is the Chargers went to two and oh.

(01:04:28):
They are famous for the slow starts to seasons. It
feels like that was every other year in Philip Rivers career.
The Chargers are two and oh for the first time
since twenty twelve, over a decade ago.

Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
They lead the AFC at point differential too.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
Now the Saints lead the NFC.

Speaker 1 (01:04:46):
The Panthers might have something to do with those because
both of them have played the Panthers.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
But it's true today, Steve, it's true today.

Speaker 8 (01:04:54):
Well, Panthers offense today at eleven drives and seven first downs.
So Josh and Up said about that two. The Chargers
win twenty six to three.

Speaker 2 (01:05:02):
JK.

Speaker 8 (01:05:03):
Dubbins seventeen carries, one hundred and thirty one yards rushing
and a TD details from Houston, Texans at the two
minute warning late first half lead the Chicago Bears thirteen

thirteen forty four to nineteen. The final over Dallas. Kamara
twenty carries one hundred and fifteen yards. Arizona beat up
the Rams forty one to ten. Kyler Murray with three
touchdown passes. He had a perfect passer rating no. You
do not have to complete every pass for that, but

(01:05:48):
boy did he move the team and had no turnovers.
Seventeen of twenty one two hundred and sixty six yards,
two scoring tosses to Marvin Harrison Junior on the cards
first two drives today. Pittsburgh's two now after winning thirteen
to six at Denver. Kansas City two and oh after
beating oh to two Cincinnati on a fifty one yard
field goal on the final play by Harrison Butker twenty

(01:06:09):
six twenty five the final Monday Night, Philadelphia will be
hosting Atlanta. The Eagles staride receiver AJ Brown is out
tomorrow with a bad hamstring. There was one overtime game today.
Seattle two and oh now got an overtime win at
New England twenty three to twenty Ramandri Stevenson in the
loss eighty one yards rushing in a TD, but Gino

(01:06:29):
Smith for the Seahawks thirty three for forty four three
hundred twenty seven yards and a TD. In AP College
Football's new poll, Texas is number one for the first
time in sixteen years. Longhorns quarterback Quinn Yours is week
to week after last night's abdominal injury, Georgia falls to
number two NASCAR victory for Chris Buscher. The Sunday night
ballgame has the Dodgers tied at Atlanta to two. In

(01:06:53):
the top of the ninth sho hey Otani with a
couple of RBI doubles. He's up to one hundred and

Two weeks left in the regular season and final note,
Caitlin Clark's team Indiana won its game against Dallas one ten,
one oh nine. Clark with thirty five points. She sets

(01:07:16):
the WNBA rookie season scoring record. Granted it's a little
longer WNBA season now, but yet another to her resume.

Speaker 1 (01:07:24):
Back to you amazing stuff, Steve great as always live
tie rack dot com Studios. Mark Willardy from Salaam, Houston,
up by ten second quarter, under two minutes to go.

Speaker 2 (01:07:37):
CAYLEB.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
Williams is approaching the all important one hundred yards passing
Mark the bar that you set for him he from.
He hasn't crossed it yet, but he's getting there. He's
getting there. We'll keep you up to date on that one.
So I watched that forty nine Ers valk Vikings game

(01:07:57):
today and here was kind of the way my mind
was working as it unfolded. Because we spent the week
as we do for those who don't know, I work
in the San Francisco Bay area, we talk a lot
of forty nine er football, and leading up to this one.
After the way the Niners looked on Monday night against

(01:08:18):
the New York Chats, it for my taste all too quickly.
Everyone sort of went, well, the Niners can win all
their games without Christian, and I thought to myself, look,
they're still a very good team, and you and I

(01:08:40):
are such big supporters of Kyle Shanahan. I think Jordan Mason,
he ran for one hundred yards again today. He looks
very good, So that's an interesting piece, and him getting
an opportunity is nice, and they've got a lot of
other pieces in place and all of that. But I

(01:09:01):
did spend some time Friday going.

Speaker 2 (01:09:04):
This is a little.

Speaker 1 (01:09:07):
Getting ahead of itself with the whole Like, yep, Niners
will still be five and zero when Christen comes back.
Don't even know when he's coming back, but he's got
to be out at least through the first five games, right, Okay,
So I said that, and then you're watching the game
today and the Niners are down thirteen to seven at half,
and my mind could still sort of wrap itself around

(01:09:29):
this whole thing. Justin Jefferson got a ninety seven yard
touchdown catch, so you have a big play like that,
you have a blocked punt that turned into points for
the Vikings, and I'm like, okay, just deep breath. Thirteen
to seven, everything's cool. And then the second half started
and you looked at the Niners third down inefficiency and

(01:09:50):
I thought, in that third quarter, it just reached out
of the TV and it smacked me in the face
and it went say it loud. This team is the
same without Christian McCaffrey. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:10:05):
I mean, he's the best running back in the league,
but not only that, he's the best all purpose player
in the league.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
He does so much out of the backfield. And although Jordan.

Speaker 4 (01:10:18):
Mason, Mason, you know, rushed for one hundred yards, he
had one catch for four yards.

Speaker 3 (01:10:26):
And and that's such a huge part of.

Speaker 4 (01:10:31):
What they expect out of the tailback position, of the
running back position, and when you don't have that, it
alters what you want, what you can do, what you
can and can't call. But you're right in terms of
you know, third down efficiency, you're not gonna win many
games going too for you know, twenty two for ten
and on the flip side of that, giving up you know,

(01:10:53):
seventy eighty percent seven for twelve. Those two things, if
you look at teams, tell you a lot about what
you know, what transpired, and then it's a you know,
it's one of those situations where, look, the San Francisco

(01:11:14):
forty nine ers will be fine. They're going to be fine.
They are a good team, they are a playoff team,
role team Minnesota, tough to play there, all of those things.
A one score game, it's look that we I don't
know if anybody expected San Francisco to go, you know,

(01:11:38):
seventeen and.

Speaker 2 (01:11:39):
Oh seventeen and oh.

Speaker 4 (01:11:42):
So we got to get out of this one week. Yeah,
the next week, oh right, like it's got to be.
It's got to be some ebbs and flows to this thing.
It can be Oh it's over. Oh they're about to
win it all. You gotta just keep a cool, steady,
you know, all you want to do is is just

(01:12:08):
look at your team. And I'm like, all right, we
were in that one. They got us right. We did
some things good, we did some things, but you just
gotta be more efficient on third down.

Speaker 2 (01:12:18):
You have to.

Speaker 3 (01:12:20):
And you know, sure up that prediction a little bit.
We can't give up six X. Can't do that.

Speaker 1 (01:12:28):
Got beating the trenches.

Speaker 3 (01:12:29):
No, see, that's they got, they got, they got.

Speaker 1 (01:12:32):
They got beaten the trenches today, for sure, they got
beatn kind of everywhere. I mean, Fred Warner was absolutely
phenomenal and and then there are a few other players
you could put on that list. But but that's about it.
They got beaten the trenches. I think they got they
got out coached. And in Minnesota last year was sort
of the warning shot to that defense. Kirk Cousins had

(01:12:57):
a monster game and the forty nine or lost with
no debo and no Trent Williams and all that, and
it was kind of like a wake up call. And
obviously they worked their way through it and made it
to the Super Bowl, but they were still having defensive
struggles in the playoffs. We saw what Detroit did do
him in the first half. You look at a game
like today, you're not wrong, They're fine. But I also

(01:13:20):
think you're not wrong if you're a Niner fan and
you thought today was concerning.

Speaker 4 (01:13:26):
Well, yeah, look we worrying about if Christian McCaffrey's gonna
come back and save you. Look, he's going to miss
at least the next what three games at least correct
at the minimum, So don't even focus on that, HOODU.

Speaker 3 (01:13:46):
The Niners have next Let's see, they're gonna be then.

Speaker 1 (01:13:51):
They're gonna then they're gonna be home to the Patriots,
and then they're gonna be home to the Cardinals.

Speaker 4 (01:13:57):
So they got to come play, and then they've got
Thursday night in Seattle. Yeah, no sleeping, No no sleep
for the weary. You gotta make it happen.

Speaker 1 (01:14:08):
Yeah, touchdown, Chicago Bears offensive offensive touchdown.

Speaker 3 (01:14:15):
Touchdown.

Speaker 1 (01:14:16):
They scored an offensive touchdown. How about that, Khalil Herbert,
he ran the ball into the end zone, the part
with the paint on it.

Speaker 3 (01:14:24):
He ran in there with the ball, the part with
the paint on it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
Yeah, I didn't know the Bear. I didn't know the
Bears were allowed to do that.

Speaker 3 (01:14:33):
I didn't know.

Speaker 2 (01:14:34):
I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (01:14:35):
I'm still learning. I'm still learning.

Speaker 3 (01:14:39):
We're living at Manday night is a good game.

Speaker 1 (01:14:45):
Hey, we want to get to the two of stuff
at the top of the hour. I'm very anxious to
get your thoughts on that for sure. But coming up next.
Remember how we said, man, there's some one in one
teams that I'd be like a little concerned one of
them stands out more than any.

Speaker 2 (01:15:00):
Of the others.

Speaker 1 (01:15:01):
We'll get to that next on Fox Sports Radio. Let's
keep talking it out man. This week two in the
NFL Live tire Rack dot Com studios with e from
salam Mark Willard, We're having some fun. We're going through
all of it, lots to unpack. Nowhere near done with
even half of it at this point. But I'd say this,

(01:15:25):
you and I I don't even know if you know this,
because you kind of fly above the clouds sometimes.

Speaker 2 (01:15:30):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:15:30):
There were a few people out there on the social
world that took shots at us last week from that
took shots at us last week because we took some
shots at the Dallas Cowboys and they had just won
a game on the road by sixteen points, and people

(01:15:51):
were like, YouTube haters, why are you talking this way
about the Cowboys when they won a game on the
road by double digits? And I didn't really pay it
much mind. But I thought to myself, well, a part
of what they're saying is fair. This is hard to

(01:16:11):
win in the NFL, and the Cowboys won. They're one
and zero. Why would we be doing that? But then
I remembered, well, first of all, it's the Cowboys, thank you.
People with brains are supposed to rip the Cowboys. That's
how it works. But also because both of us saw
some things that don't look right and are cause for concern, Well,

(01:16:37):
today you saw all of them thirty five points in
the first half. In your home lest in your home opener.

Speaker 2 (01:16:50):
What's happening here?

Speaker 3 (01:16:54):
What do you see about the Cowboys?

Speaker 2 (01:16:57):
Pretty good? It's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (01:16:59):
I see a lack of of diversified talent. Mm Well
said right now, I can't say a lack of talent,
because of course they have talent, but they don't have
enough talent. And the things that we criticized them for
all off season was was they didn't do anything to

(01:17:21):
bring in more talent because, of course, understandably, they had
to write some pretty big checks, so there's very little
room and money for impact free agents, and so they
just sat pat. When you know, Philly went and got
say quon and you know, teams went out and got

(01:17:46):
themselves better, and so everybody was just like, what are
they doing? Then they come out Week one and they win,
and people were like see see, and we were we
saw through that. We saw a Cleveland Browns team with

(01:18:07):
an offense quarterback not sure if he wants to be
good or terrible. And then they ran up against a
bus sawt today and at home, mind you, at home
against the New Orleans Saints.

Speaker 3 (01:18:24):
And got exposed.

Speaker 4 (01:18:29):
You don't need Dak Prescott to throw the ball almost
forty times if that's going to be your recipe.

Speaker 3 (01:18:36):
I don't care how much money you paying him.

Speaker 4 (01:18:39):
If you want Dak Prescott to throw the ball forty
or more times, this season isn't gonna pan out the
way you think it should.

Speaker 2 (01:18:48):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
And their inability to run the ball, which Dallas made
its bones by running the ball. I do believe they
were home to the leading rusher of all time. But

(01:19:11):
when Dallas was good, they had a star receiver, good quarterback,
and a star running back, even young Ezekiel Elliott, young
Dak Prescott, des Bryant, right, like that was the formula.

Speaker 3 (01:19:25):
They don't have that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:26):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (01:19:27):
They still have Ezekiel Elliott who managed two point seven
yards to carry. They had Rico Dowaldo, was Donald Dowdell
DoD Dotal think it's Dodal seven carries for thirty yards, Yeah, no.

Speaker 2 (01:19:41):
Carry out, Yeah, for sixty eight yards twenty one carries out.

Speaker 4 (01:19:44):
So if you can't offset a team's defense by doing that,
you're going to ask Dak to do some things he's
not comfortable doing. And that's throw the ball forty times,
right and two interceptions.

Speaker 1 (01:19:59):
Is the most predict thing ever. They what they did
at running back was not going to lead to a
running game. And you said there was a lack of
talent and then you kind of backed up off it,
and I know why, but you're also you're not wrong
like Ceedee Lamb and what else.

Speaker 3 (01:20:13):
That's what I'm saying. What else they have talent, They
just don't have a lot of it.

Speaker 1 (01:20:17):
Yeah, yes, these are That game looked exactly like their
playoff game last year.

Speaker 2 (01:20:23):
All right, we'll get to the TUO of stuff coming
up next.

Speaker 1 (01:20:29):
Let's go into our final hours Week two National Football
League where at halftime Sunday Night Football, Houston Texans lead
the Chicago Bears sixteen to ten Bears do look better
better on offense. Not saying a whole lot yet, but
the Texans have been pretty good. Kaymi Fairbear and their
kickers been fantastic. Broadcasting live ti rack dot com studios

When I just said that out loud, Kyemi fairmarn has
been fantastic, it leads me to ask you something. Hey,

(01:21:13):
remember when Augusta had to like tiger proof the course, Yeah,
because they're like, oh, golfers can hit it too far. Now,
when do we change the way we do field goals?
Because the Texas just lined up for a fifty nine
yarder and you and I are old enough to remember

(01:21:35):
where that was like a ridiculous idea, let alone something
that you could go execute with normalcy. And now they
line up for it and I'm like, like, sixty five
percent chance he's gonna make this, and then boom, here
it goes. What happened? Why is the fifty five to

(01:21:59):
sixty five your own yard field goal now like just
not a problem.

Speaker 4 (01:22:06):
Well, that's that's easy. That's easy evolution. Man, look at
people running four two ones, four to two forties, offensive
lineman six seven three twenty five nine percent body fat,
defensive ends. You know, that's just the evolution of it.

(01:22:32):
It's funny because when you I'm a coach in youth sports,
you know this. And so my nephews had a game.

Speaker 3 (01:22:44):
I believe.

Speaker 4 (01:22:44):
They go to Santa Margarita and down in Orange County, Okay.
And my nephews are sophomores. They're twins, and they're huge. No,
they're huge. They are They're huge, right, I thought they
were huge. This is real thing. I thought they were huge.

(01:23:05):
And then I went, he's a sophomore. He's starting on
one of them. He's a sophomore, starts on varsities play center.
And when I showed up to the game and I
looked at him next to his teammates, I said, oh gosh,
they call him little man.

Speaker 3 (01:23:25):
No brother.

Speaker 4 (01:23:27):
They their left tackle was six eight three twenty five
as a seventeen year old. Their right tackle was six '
five three twenty The right guard was six ' two

(01:23:58):
like what was like three three forty or.

Speaker 3 (01:24:01):
Something like that.

Speaker 4 (01:24:03):
I was like, Oh my god, these are these are kids,
these are these are teenagers. The whole sc coaching staff
was at the game, and a couple agents. Oh yeah,
oh Nil's is a real thing.

Speaker 2 (01:24:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:24:24):
They had a defensive end who committed, who's already committed,
a senior who has already committed to Georgia.

Speaker 1 (01:24:33):
He was.

Speaker 3 (01:24:35):
Six ' five, two ninety five coming off the edge.

Speaker 4 (01:24:41):
What I was one hundred and eighty five pounds my
senior year in high school, I was sixty five, one
hundred and eighty five pounds. That was it.

Speaker 3 (01:24:57):
And I might have been fudging on the on the
one eighty five. Okay. So when I'm when I'm looking now,
I'm like, oh no, this is just the evolution.

Speaker 2 (01:25:08):
This is this is what it is.

Speaker 4 (01:25:14):
So when you talk about field goal kickers and they're
showing the highlights of Jamar Chase uh just completely melting
down and costing his team the game.

Speaker 3 (01:25:26):
His dude's a clown.

Speaker 5 (01:25:27):
Man.

Speaker 4 (01:25:28):
I don't like his behavior in terms of then he
came into the sideline slammed his helmet. He's an idiot. Man.
I would have if I would look, if I would
have sat him down. He would have been sitting right
on that bench. That's how you make a statement. That's
how you as a coach. You gotta find you gotta
find ways to reel your team back in. You gotta

(01:25:50):
find ways to real your team back in, you know
what I mean? And and and and they failed on
that one. He would have been sitting right over there
on the bench. He wouldn't have got back in the game.
And that's just what it would have been. No one's
bigger than the team, But I digress. Field goal kickers

(01:26:12):
are stronger, they're bigger, all of those things, they're not.
We're the other positions in sports, aren't the only ones
that evolved. Look at these kids in high school playing basketball.
Everybody jumping out the gym. Everybody could touch the top
of the back boy, everybodys shooting from half court.

Speaker 2 (01:26:31):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:26:32):
You got freshmen in high school six ' nine freshmen
in high school. Now some of them are sixteen, which
is crazy to me. Being sixteen as a freshman in
high school seems weird because that's the year. That's how
a hold I was when I graduated.

Speaker 2 (01:26:49):
But you know, but.

Speaker 3 (01:26:54):
The evolution, that's what it is. They had to remember
they moved a three point line back.

Speaker 2 (01:27:00):
Yep.

Speaker 3 (01:27:01):
Yes, And so this is the next step in terms
of athletic evolution.

Speaker 4 (01:27:10):
First player in history with five field goals of fifty
plus yards in two gamespan.

Speaker 2 (01:27:15):
Well, I mean, how many years until you get the
ball to thirty You hand it off three times, you
go three yards, you're at your own thirty three and
you're just like, all right, field go. Youre like, what
the hell where are we going here? Hey? Man, dudes
can hit the ball three quarters of the field.

Speaker 3 (01:27:36):
That's what happens.

Speaker 4 (01:27:37):
Quarterbacks then throw the ball seventy yards on a rope
on the move in the air that you never, I know,
never would have thought that would be possible.

Speaker 2 (01:27:47):
I just wonder. I'm likes the field could have to
be bigger.

Speaker 4 (01:27:50):
Someday you can have a quarterback put seventy yards of airtime.

Speaker 3 (01:27:57):
Easy on a ball. My homes to do it off
is off the wrong even set.

Speaker 2 (01:28:04):
Oh god, it's wild, man.

Speaker 3 (01:28:05):
So this is what's happening. This is you know, this
is the evolution of man and sport.

Speaker 1 (01:28:11):
It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:28:12):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (01:28:14):
Okay, really wanted. This is gonna take a minute and
we can keep going. We got the whole hour. But
I really want your reaction on this, and let me
throw a couple of things out there with Tuaka. And
while everybody was watching football today, you may have missed
that the reports are already out Ian Rappaport and others.

Speaker 2 (01:28:32):
TUA has quote no plans to retire.

Speaker 1 (01:28:36):
Now, I sent something out on Twitter that got a
lot of backlash a couple of days ago, and that's
fine that I don't care about that, but I'm glad
I have the opportunity to turn the microphone on and
discuss this a little bit, because I do think that
the tweet got taken a little bit out of the
context that I was going for. What I sent was

(01:28:58):
a quote tweet of Anti Tonio Pierce saying publicly that
he would advise to it to retire. And I said,
this is wildly inappropriate for another head coach to say.
And what a lot of people came back and said was, now,
why is it inappropriate. You're making it about football, Antonio's
making it about the human being. He's nice and you're mean.

(01:29:22):
And Antonio's been there before linebacker NFL.

Speaker 2 (01:29:27):
He knows what he's talking about. You don't.

Speaker 1 (01:29:30):
And I said, that's not what I'm getting at at all. Yes,
this is obviously about the human being. I don't give
a rip where this goes football wise. Mantiteo's on national
TV crying because he's worried about his very good friend.

(01:29:51):
But simultaneously, Mike McDaniel, the head coach of the Dolphins,
was asked what he would say to Tua, and he tried,
He implored.

Speaker 2 (01:29:59):
He banned the world. Please.

Speaker 1 (01:30:02):
I know this is coming from a good place, but
you have to understand that a grown man's life, dream, career,
his ability to make his own decisions is not That's
not what you should be talking about right now. You're
getting ahead of yourself. You're kind of sticking your your

(01:30:27):
nose where it doesn't belong. And I'm fine if a
bunch immediate people and fans want to do that, because
that's what we're doing here. But similar to the way
we talk about, for instance, I don't know, a presidential election,
there are certain jobs where you're held to a different standard,

(01:30:50):
and the head coach of an NFL team in this
situation is one of them. I know Antonio still has
a player's mentality. I understand that. I understand that he
asked the question, and he was just answering it the
way a nice person would. I also wonder how that
resonated in the offices of the Miami Dolphins, that a
head coach of one of their opponents in their conference

(01:31:15):
is literally in front of a microphone suggesting that their
two hundred plus million dollar investment should stop playing. That
is not appropriate. That is absolutely, unequivocally, wildly inappropriate. And

(01:31:35):
there are a thousand ways to answer that kindly, with
compassion without saying that. Boy, I got such concern for
the young man. I hope he makes it a decision
that makes sense for him. I don't know how i'd
feel if that were my family member. But man, we're

(01:31:57):
not worried about football. We're just worried about to there's
your answer. You cannot say I would tell the young
man to retire when he literally might be on your
schedule week nine. That's how I felt about it.

Speaker 3 (01:32:16):
Yeah, you're you're right with that, now.

Speaker 4 (01:32:18):
You when you tweet something like that, you should know
that people aren't going to be able to stupid understand
that because you didn't write all of that what you
so eloquently stated right now in the tweet. Because you
can't correct, So that's why I don't do it. I'm like, yeah,
if you want to hear what I have to say,

(01:32:39):
tune into the radio show. Yeah, you gonna get my
opinion on whatever happens during the week or in the
game on the radio show so I can explain myself. Now,
you know, people wanting to to retire, No, it's not
gonna happen. He too is a football player. It's been
his dream to play football in the National Football Not

(01:33:01):
only that, he just got paid to be a football player.
He's making fifty something million dollars a year. He's not
going to retire saying I think he should. You know,
that's a matter of an opinion. Now, if Tua was

(01:33:25):
medically cleared to play, then he's going to play. In
my opinion, should he think about you as Look, let
me just let people know right now, when you're in
the sport and you're playing and you're young, not in
the twilight of your career, you're ten, eleven, twelve. When

(01:33:50):
you're young and in the sport that you've worked your
entire life to be in, and you're compensated at the
top of that market, you're not thinking about retirement. You're
not thinking about, Oh, I just had surgery eleven days ago.
It's probably not a good idea to go out here

(01:34:12):
and play a game in the National Football League. I
can't even walk, but I'm going to go play. When
you break both of your hands, it's probably not a
good idea to start fourteen games as an offensive lineman
with two broken hands. But you do it because that's

(01:34:36):
the warrior mentality that you have.

Speaker 2 (01:34:40):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:34:41):
So it's one of those situations to where, yeah, to
a layman, someone punching the clock every day, yeah, that
may seem like, oh, well, you know what's going on,
gotta walk away from it. But for someone who's put

(01:35:02):
it all out there on the line and this is
what they do and what they've wanted to do forever, man,
you're gonna have to scrape him off the field.

Speaker 2 (01:35:13):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:35:13):
You can feel how you feel about that. But these
are grown men, and they make their adults. They can
make their own decisions, and so all I would say

(01:35:33):
is I hope he takes care of him now. I
was upset a couple of years ago when he got
the back to back concussions.

Speaker 3 (01:35:43):
I was upset with the team, yes and the league.

Speaker 2 (01:35:46):
They put them back out there.

Speaker 4 (01:35:47):
That was their fault, because a player will always choose
to play.

Speaker 3 (01:35:55):
Exactly. That's the problem I have with and that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:58):
Your visit signs of concussion on the field, you're not
allowed back in.

Speaker 4 (01:36:03):
Everybody saw it, and oh, by the way, short week,
next game, Thursday night football. Yeah, that was a league
and a team issue, and shame on them for it.
And I'm pretty sure when this thing is all said
and done, there'll be some type of lawsuit later, later,
way later, and uh Intua's life because that was egregious

(01:36:29):
and they could have essentially, you know, did some irreparable
damage to this young man.

Speaker 1 (01:36:37):
I'd love to ask you more questions about this. I
think it's fascinating when we have the opportunity to speak
to someone who's played and had I would imagine some
concussive blows on everything.

Speaker 3 (01:36:48):
You know, how many plays? How many games I missed
from a concussion?

Speaker 2 (01:36:51):
I bet zero? But I bet you I bet you
had something zero.

Speaker 4 (01:36:56):
I played in one hundred and sixty something games. Yeah,
I have one, and Lineman, are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (01:37:05):
Yeah? You think you think maybe you had maybe more
than one?

Speaker 3 (01:37:09):
I miss zero plays in games?

Speaker 2 (01:37:12):
Yeah, yeah, I like, I'd love to ask you more
about that.

Speaker 1 (01:37:16):
Let's yeah, let's do that coming up next with me
from salam Mark Willard, Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (01:37:25):
Yeah, oh oh, Tank, Tank Hell. It's the worst part
of the NFL football is uh.

Speaker 1 (01:37:46):
When someone on your fantasy team is by themselves behind
the defense, but then they forgot the ball, forgot to
catch the ball.

Speaker 2 (01:37:58):
All good.

Speaker 1 (01:37:58):
We'll live live tyreck dot Com studio shortly after the show.
Podcast goes up. You missed any today's show, be sure
to check out the podcast. Just search Fox Sports Radio
wherever you get your podcast, and be sure to also
follow and rate and review the podcast. Again, just search
Fox Sports Radio wherever you get your podcasts. You'll see
the show posted right after we get off the air,
and Steve de Sega is going to be along here

(01:38:20):
in just a few minutes with an update on everything
that is happening and everything that has happened. But we've
been still kind of unpacking the TUIs situation. I mean,
you're a retired player. Let me just ask you some
things straight up, like how do you think head trauma

(01:38:41):
in your former job has affected your life?

Speaker 2 (01:38:45):
Now?

Speaker 4 (01:38:49):
I mean it's definitely affected it. I don't have any
anything to base it off of, because it's just me. Now,
I've done a several neurological assessments. When they did the
concussion settlement, you know, guys who you know played and

(01:39:11):
all of that, they've sent you to the doctor and
they've been there for eight hours and make you feel
like you're going crazy.

Speaker 5 (01:39:17):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:39:18):
And the crazy part about the settlement is a lot
of guys got a lot of people get denied because
you know, they're looking for something. I guess I don't
know what that thing is, but I always looked at
so guys, you know, try to go in there and

(01:39:40):
and you know, sand bag it a little bit yep
for me. I told them, I said, look, I need
I don't. I would rather know if something is wrong
more than the money. So I'm gonna try to beat it.
I'm trying to ace it. So I'm and they're trying

(01:40:00):
to get everything right. And I mean, if you've never
had one, it is something.

Speaker 2 (01:40:05):
It is long.

Speaker 4 (01:40:08):
It's a long day. And then it's capped off by
a four hundred question multiple chortes scantron four hundred that's
at the end of the assessment. Yeah, four hundred that

(01:40:28):
that's after you've been in there for six hours.

Speaker 1 (01:40:33):
The what kind of questions are they I'll.

Speaker 4 (01:40:36):
Give you an example, like they'll ask you, have you
ever have you ever wanted to hurt yourself or others?
They'll ask you that about thirty different ways. Sure, right,
so it's around there. It's it's stuff like that, right.
So they're trying to find they're trying to find if
you're you know, you're being honest, if you're not, if

(01:40:57):
there's something really wrong, like all of these types of things.

Speaker 3 (01:41:00):
And so.

Speaker 4 (01:41:03):
I would have gone a different way if I were
the league and the concussion settlement. Much like insurance, if
you've played I don't know, just start at ten years
or more and it played over one hundred games, and

(01:41:28):
it could be position based, then you should automatically qualify.
So if you played started, or played in one hundred
games over ten years, and you're an offensive defensive lineman,
a linebacker, a running back, you should automatically quy qualify

(01:41:49):
whether you've been diagnosed with a concussion at any point
in the game. If you have, then that number goes
up because the reality of the situation is that as
an offensive lineman who started for ten years, sixty an
average of sixty plays a game. I make contact forcefully

(01:42:13):
every single play, yep, with my head and hands. Not
only that, every single practice, training camp, so on and
so forth. So just based on that, the money should

(01:42:33):
have been available, because there would be an almost impossible
ratio of not ever having been concussed. Just on the
numbers and alone at those three offensive line, defensive line, linebacker,

(01:42:55):
running back, tight end.

Speaker 3 (01:42:58):
Just on that alone, there should have been Okay, here
you boom. You get this now.

Speaker 4 (01:43:05):
If you've had a history of it, then now we
the evaluation comes, and then that money increases, and so
on and so forth. They want you almost to be
a vegetable to collect on those benefits that they talk
so highly about offering.

Speaker 3 (01:43:22):
And you asked me, did that have any effects?

Speaker 4 (01:43:25):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:43:25):
And you know, memory loss happens with age.

Speaker 4 (01:43:31):
But it's one thing I'll never forget, and that's to
throw to my man, Steven Tosaegah, that's well.

Speaker 8 (01:43:39):
Done, good Evey. Yeah you can't teach that at home.

Speaker 1 (01:43:42):
Yeah, that man does not sound to me right now.
I'm just saying it does not. I think it just
massed the protocol right there.

Speaker 3 (01:43:52):
I appreciate that, appreciate that.

Speaker 8 (01:43:56):
Yeah, Yeah, he's a professional. Don't try that. You guys
were talking about the law field goals. We mentioned it
on the show After You last weekend. Week one in
the NFL, the league's kickers from at least fifty yards
out when it combined twenty one for twenty three on
those field Goalsay, so those used to be so hot.

(01:44:16):
I watched some old NFL like, I mean, forty fifty
years old NFL videos this past month and there were
still straightaway kickers where they tried to with the toe,
you know, and the kicking percentages were just awful back
in the bad old days. Now the percentages are phenomenal.
Week one had the most fifty plus yard field goals

(01:44:38):
made in a single week in NFL history, and it
broke the record set one year ago. Tonight, we have
Houston hosting Chicago. Nine minutes to go third quarter, Texans
lead sixteen to ten. The Chicago Bears offense seven drives,
eight first downs and they're not out of it. Cairo
Santo's fifty three yard field goal. Houston kicker in the

(01:45:00):
first half, Kaymi fairbairn field goals of fifty six and
fifty nine yards. We did have another injury with the
chain gang, this in Houston. We mentioned Baltimore earlier. This
is different. The man was carted off, conscious, walked to
the cart under his own power. The problem he tripped
over the yard marker you know, the ten or twenty
or thirty along the sidelines going backwards, was not hit

(01:45:23):
by anybody, but in falling backwards, appeared to hit his
head on the turf and was taken off. So it's
third quarter Houston, the home team up sixteen to ten,
and while Caleb Williams has only ninety four yards passing
Nico Collins for the Texans six catches, one hundred two
yards and one touchdown. Kansas City defeated Cincinnati twenty six

(01:45:45):
twenty five on a fifty one yard field goal on
the final play by Harrison Butker. Pittsburgh won at ozh
and two Denver thirteen to six. Since the merger Bo
Nix and by the way, the merger was nineteen seventy,
so this is fifty plus years of FI history. No
one else has done this. Your first two weeks in
the league, in each game you have no touchdown passes

(01:46:07):
and at least two interceptions. In fact, the Broncos offense
had only three first downs by halftime in this home game. Today,
Arizona pounded the Rams forty one to ten. Kyler Murray
three touchdown passes, two to Marvin Harrison Junior on the
cards first two drives. Rams receiver Pukinaku is already on
injured reserve with a sprain pcl and Cooper Cup left

(01:46:27):
today's game late first half with an ankle injury. He's
in a walking boot. Kansas City injury update was that
running back Isaiah Pacheco, with what's called an ankle injury,
is in a walking boot and crutches. Vegas came back
to win at Baltimore twenty six twenty three. The Ravens
are zero and two. I saw a poll online for
Maryland fans which is ticking you off more Orioles or Ravens,

(01:46:52):
and inevitably fan after fans said, boy, it's a tie
for last with that one. They're just both killing me
right now. By the way, the in the American leg,
it's only two weeks left in baseball's regular season. The
Orioles lost again today four to two at Detroit. Well,
the Yankees got an Aaron Judge homer, his fifty third
and beat Boston five to two, so the New York

(01:47:12):
Yankees are three games out of the Orioles in the
Al East. The Sunday Night ballgame went to the Dodgers
nine too at Atlanta, with seven runs in the top
of the ninth, including three straight homers. The Braves are
still tied with the Mets for the final NL wild card.
The Phillies edged the Mets two to one, and Metstar
shortstop Francisco Lindor left the game with a bad back
NASCAR victory for Chris Busher and guys, I thought we

(01:47:35):
were done with this. Actually, today is the final Live
Golf updates.

Speaker 1 (01:47:40):
Oh yes, I was gonna say something last hour, but
I didn't want to stick my foot in my mouth
because I didn't do that enough already.

Speaker 3 (01:47:47):
They were in check.

Speaker 8 (01:47:48):
But here we are and they finished the individual events
and John Rahm is your winner eleven under par. He
was the biggest name to join this league in the
off season, finished top ten at every live event that
he competed in, So for winning this weekend, he gets
four million dollars. For those who are unaware, maybe I

(01:48:10):
haven't listened to this part of the show, Live Golf's
only three rounds of golf. You just play golf Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
The winner gets four million dollars for the weekend. Today
was the finale. John rom also wins the season points
title and a bonus of eighteen million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:48:28):
Good.

Speaker 8 (01:48:29):
Yeah, he gets twenty two mill today.

Speaker 3 (01:48:33):
Back to you today, vacation.

Speaker 1 (01:48:36):
Well, I mean, I don't know. It's not hitting me
the same way it normally does. Because four days ago,
some somebody in Texas hit the Mega Millions.

Speaker 3 (01:48:45):
For eight hundred million dollars. Oh my goodness, that was
one day.

Speaker 1 (01:48:49):
Also, so John Rahm like whatever, twenty two, how about
eight hundred.

Speaker 2 (01:48:57):
One day? One person won the.

Speaker 3 (01:49:01):
Whole fifty after Texas, and it's.

Speaker 1 (01:49:05):
About right about, well, no, four point fifty, it's I
think they said it's about four to ten if you
do that lump something. But then you got to pay
taxes on that. You know, next April's coming, and so
you know, there probably goes another at least one hundred
and fifty and uh yeah, poor guys only left with
like two hundred and fifty million dollars.

Speaker 8 (01:49:26):
And the first thing you do with the cash is
buy into an NFL team. It's a cash There you go.

Speaker 2 (01:49:30):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (01:49:31):
The first thing you do is by the Washington Commanders
or something like that. Yeah, Steve, thank you for that.
That was very enjoyable as as always. Uh yeah, Live
time Tyreck dot Com Studios. One other thing on all
this toa stuff and this is maybe just to try
to keep it light. Okay, but two is a grown man.

(01:49:55):
And I know a lot of people have said that, like,
come on, you know, this is an adult. He gets
to do what he wants to do. Okay, men, just
admit this adult men only, And that's probably the lion's
share of our audience right now. Adult men, admit it.

(01:50:16):
You won't even ask for directions, Like, we don't let
anybody tell us anything. So how the hell are we
going to tell a football player in his twenties to
stop playing football? And oh, by the way, and I

(01:50:40):
know it's not about this, it's about your life and
the quality of that life. But how many decisions would
all of you adult men make that would also equal
the forfeiture of about one hundred and forty million dollars.

(01:51:00):
Think of all the conversations you've had through the years.
Oh what would you do for while I would jump
off a building, right exactly.

Speaker 10 (01:51:09):
So I'm not saying he should play. I'm simply saying
he's going to. Yeah, he's gonna play, because that's he's
a football player. And you know, the concussions before healed.
Hopefully these will heal.

Speaker 4 (01:51:29):
But once you start getting and everybody's different. Everybody's different,
that's the whole thing about it. You don't know, there's
no set Everybody has a baseline when they when they
take you into the blue ten and they take you
into the locker room, they look at your baseline assessment
and then they test you to determine if you are

(01:51:51):
near that base line or if you are being concussed.

Speaker 3 (01:51:53):
That's the part of the protocol. And so.

Speaker 4 (01:51:59):
Once he he clears that, you know he's going to
decide to play, just like he did before. You know,
it's yeah, and it was you know, it wasn't a
dirty hit or anything. It just it happens.

Speaker 3 (01:52:15):
Man. Some people are more susceptible to being concussed in others.

Speaker 2 (01:52:21):
Well.

Speaker 1 (01:52:21):
And by the way, you mentioned the hit, and you're right,
it wasn't a dirty hit. In fact, I thought that
Damar Hamlin gave ground on the heat pulled up and oh,
by the way, let's say that again.

Speaker 2 (01:52:34):
That man died on the field.

Speaker 3 (01:52:38):
And he's still playing. And just so you just so
you know, just so you know, just.

Speaker 2 (01:52:44):
So you know.

Speaker 1 (01:52:45):
All right, some final thoughts is this Sunday night is
getting good plank and span. You're going to hop in here,
but not done yet with you From salam Mark Willard,
Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 12 (01:53:10):
All right, live in these hi iraq dot com studios.
About five minutes to go or so.

Speaker 2 (01:53:16):
The third quarter. Houston continues to lead sixteen to ten
over the Bears.

Speaker 1 (01:53:22):
It's turned into a little bit of a rock fight,
a little bit of a slog year from how you
feel about your Texans so far?

Speaker 2 (01:53:28):
I like it.

Speaker 4 (01:53:29):
You know, look, man, one thing we know about the NFL,
all right, week to week, it's going to differ, all right.
And you know we're talking about the best team. We
watched it earlier, best team in the league in terms
of you know, reigning Super Bowl champions. And it all

(01:53:52):
came down to what a little bit of help, A
little bit of help, that's it.

Speaker 3 (01:54:01):
That's what it is.

Speaker 4 (01:54:03):
The goal is to win. They don't care nothing about
no point spread, no over under the girl. If you
can win them all by one point you won, You
won seventeen games. If you can win them all by one,
you've won seventeen games. That's the reality of the situation.
Some days you're gonna come out, you're gonna put up forty.

(01:54:23):
Some days you're gonna come out and put up eighteen.
To hope you that's enough.

Speaker 1 (01:54:28):
I mean you're literally speaking right now, straight out of
the Bible of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaker 3 (01:54:35):
That's it, man.

Speaker 1 (01:54:37):
They're gonna go to the playoffs again, aren't they.

Speaker 2 (01:54:39):
Yes, they're gonna go to the playoffs.

Speaker 1 (01:54:41):
They're gonna be They're gonna be ten and seven and
we're gonna be like, but they average nine point seven
points per game.

Speaker 2 (01:54:46):
Why why are they going to the playoff?

Speaker 1 (01:54:48):
Well, I don't know, because the other team averages eight
point two defense travelers, Yeah, they scored two touchdowns a
month and it just turned out it was enough. That's
what's gonna happen. I can see it all right.

Speaker 4 (01:55:00):
All you needed to be is enough. Was that a
pick six? If that is a pick six, that is
one of the greatest plays ever.

Speaker 1 (01:55:11):
The Chicago Bears are not going to do this again,
are they?

Speaker 4 (01:55:14):
If the oo did he control this ball. It never
hit the ground, Yes, it did right there. Ah, but
they may say he controlled it. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no,
that's incomplete. I hit the ground right there.

Speaker 2 (01:55:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:55:29):
Yeah, yeah, that's a good try, good try. That would
have been the most bearst thing ever.

Speaker 2 (01:55:36):
Oh yeah, that hit the ground. And if they don't
overturn that, I'll do planking Spaniards show for them. Yeah exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:55:46):
Okay, they didn't even they called it incomplete. Good job,
good job refs. See if the chiefs aren't out there,
everything goes fine with those guys.

Speaker 3 (01:55:55):
It's under review or something. Now he's challenging it.

Speaker 1 (01:55:58):
Who's challenging it?

Speaker 2 (01:56:01):
Go, God, what are you doing?

Speaker 1 (01:56:06):
It's not a well he didn't want his challenge flag anymore.
He's like, this thing's weighing.

Speaker 3 (01:56:11):
Running a hole in my pocket.

Speaker 2 (01:56:13):
Yeah, this thing is.

Speaker 1 (01:56:14):
Thing what stood out to you most today? I'm just like,
the floor is yours? What like, give me something in
any of these games where you're.

Speaker 3 (01:56:21):
Like, oh, I'm gonna be honest and I'm gonna go
a little bit off script here.

Speaker 2 (01:56:29):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:56:29):
The thing that really stood out the most for me
today was my wife. She surprised me with something Okay,
now that Sunday Ticket isn't on direct TV anymore and
it's on YouTube TV. You can only watch four games
at a time. Yes, you used to be able to

(01:56:51):
watch eight. So I would sit with direct TV and
watch all eight games, okay, and you can do whatever
sound you want. You can just go to that one
and the sound would come on. So when it went
to four, that was a bit of a problem for
me last year. So I had our TV. We got

(01:57:11):
nice TV evers. It was an eighty five inches or
something like that to take up the whole wall.

Speaker 2 (01:57:16):
Is this a new one that you bought after.

Speaker 3 (01:57:17):
You Yeah, Hey, we don't got to go back to that, okay.

Speaker 2 (01:57:21):
Yeah, And so her favorite story and so.

Speaker 4 (01:57:27):
Anyway, and so I would have my iPad down here,
and then I would be trying to click between the
multi views and trying to get the wh this has
three of the games I won. But it was just
it was a mess. And so last night when I
came home, she was like, hey, I got a surprise
for you. And I come in and she has a mount.

Speaker 3 (01:57:53):
On wills.

Speaker 4 (01:57:54):
She has a fifty inch television on like wheels that
I can roll into the living room.

Speaker 3 (01:58:02):
Next to.

Speaker 4 (01:58:04):
The TV and I can put four games there and
four games on the other television.

Speaker 3 (01:58:13):
My wife did that for me. When I woke up
this morning, it came out. It was all set up
for me.

Speaker 2 (01:58:22):
It was all it was. That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 4 (01:58:26):
It was on that, it was on YouTube, TV was on,
it was it was the whole I'm sitting. I just
texted you a picture of what my setup looked like.
I just texted you that picture. That's what stood out
for me today. And if you want to tweet that
picture you can. How about that?

Speaker 2 (01:58:47):
Oh that's love?

Speaker 3 (01:58:51):
How about that? That's what stood out to me today.

Speaker 4 (01:58:54):
You can tweet that. I don't do a lot of tweeting,
but you can. You can tweet that and put that
out there. Yeah, and of people see that.

Speaker 2 (01:59:01):
That's how it should look. I was happy.

Speaker 3 (01:59:04):
I was so happy. I was just like, man, I.

Speaker 1 (01:59:07):
Only got one question, man, why why did you put
the panthers on the laptop?

Speaker 3 (01:59:14):
Because that's a local that came on the local.

Speaker 4 (01:59:16):
Uh uh you know if you're if you're locals, Yeah,
the chargers they can't you can't.

Speaker 3 (01:59:22):
You can't pull it up on the multiview.

Speaker 1 (01:59:25):
You were you told me you were looking at all
the NFL games and then I saw one with the
Panthers on it.

Speaker 3 (01:59:30):
Yeah, I watched them all.

Speaker 4 (01:59:31):
The only game I didn't I was just clicking in
and out of was the the Seattle because it was
whatever reason, it was ten games, you know, Seattle.

Speaker 3 (01:59:42):
New England.

Speaker 2 (01:59:43):
So yeah, it was a lot. It was a lot
this morning.

Speaker 3 (01:59:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:59:47):
But when I say I watch all of the game,
I literally watch all of the games of the games
every Wednesday.

Cheese eggs with the beef bacon.

Speaker 4 (02:00:09):
Or sometimes I could do uh, I do these French
Hawaiian rolls, the Hawaiian bread, French toasts.

Speaker 3 (02:00:20):
I'm dangerous in the kitchen.

Speaker 4 (02:00:22):
Man.
