Knock, knock, who's there? Our number two. It's our two
of the Ben Maler Show podcast. Do you agree or
disagree with Mike Tomlin giving Air and Rogers a double
thumbs up? Also does Drew Brees calling the Saints offense
or the Eagles offense rather boring? Does that make sense?
And why did the Texans release safety CJ. Gardner Johnson
(00:24):
after that zero to three start. We'll examine all of
that and more right now here. It is our number two,
a trip to Rogers World. Welcome in the beginning of
another hour of the Ben Maler Show. We are in

(02:05):
Check that out and we get into it right now.
We say hello to the pet sparg Steelers. Now the
Steelers traveling across the Atlantic Ocean for a playdate. They
take on the Minnesota Vikings in Ireland. So it's Carson
Wentz versus Aaron Rodgers. Now. In the lead up to
that game, Aaron Rodgers was a topic of conversation. If
(02:28):
you did not hear about this, perhaps not so. Mike
Tomlin had some things to say. He was asked about
Aaron Rodgers, and he was asked if Aaron Rodgers has
lived up to expectations. Pittsburgh off to the two and
one start, a nail biding win over the Jets, a
blowout loss to well, not a blot lost, but they
weren't very competitive against Seattle. Some special teams blunders in
(02:49):
that game, and then win over the New England Patriots.
So two and one start, and so Mike Tomlin asked
whether or not Aaron Rodgers had lived up to expectations
his first season there in western Pennsylvania. So are Tomlin
do you think? He said, a my god, does Aaron
Rodgers stink? Be no comment or see yes? All right,
(03:10):
So the answer to this, it's a version of c Obviously,
Tomlin said, quote he meaning Aaron Rodgers, He meaning Aaron
Rodgers certainly has been what we expected, and not only
in terms of his play, but Tomlin went on to
say in terms of his relationship with the game and
how he interacts with his teammates. Tomlin opined, quote continued
(03:35):
Tomlin said, how he loves the preparation process. All of
those things have been double thumbs up. Let me repeat that,
double thumbs up, and so it's reasonable to expect the
in stadium performance to mirror that. Tomlin said close quote,
(03:56):
So that's the money quote. That's a good jumping off point.
So let's discuss the question do you agree or disagree?
Agree or disagree with Mike Tomlin giving Aaron Rodgers the
double thumbs up on that. So my observations on this,
I've got Bill Nye, the science guy, stick figures and
(04:17):
foot long ballpark wiener, and we will combine all of
these things together, and we are going to put the
biscuit in the basket, is what we're going to do.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
So number.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
I said, number yes, Yes, say this is the kind
of thing, the kind of thing you say about a
summer blockbuster, right or they come out with a new
flavor of potato chips and you say, well, that's a
double thumbs up. Of course, you also know what this is.
This is spin spins, spin spins, spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, spin, spin,
(04:54):
spin spin spin spin, spin spin spin.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That's what Mike Tomins doing.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Obviously we know that he's selling Aaron Rodgers love of
the game. Leadership like that that matters. It's also a
backhanded shot at Justin Fields and Russell Wilson. Right last year,
they clearly did not love the game. They didn't give
you that leadership. So does anyone care whether or not
(05:19):
Aaron Rodgers is breaking down film?
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Is there anyone? I'm sure there's probably some hard a
lot do I care. I'm I'm into that kind of thing. Okay,
good for you, Good for you.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Okay, the vast majority of the rank and file to
not really care whether or not he's breaking down film
with his teammates.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
If on Sundays he looks like he's stuck in gridlock traffic, Okay,
you don't really care. And now imagine, if you will.
Had Mike Tomlin come out to the dais and said, listen,
we've had Aaron Rodgers. We thought he was good. The
guy's cooked. We wish he wasn't cooked. He's cooked.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
And we really just.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Wanted Aaron Rodgers in Pittsburgh because we thought he could
get us the top magic mushrooms around and some great ayahuasca,
and nobody else in the NFL can match the ayahuasca.
We have in Pittsburgh. So that's really why we wanted
Aaron Rodgers. Now, that would be the mother of all
quotes by Mike Tomlin. That would be groundbreaking. He didn't
say that.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Rogers. Here's the way I look at it. It's gone the.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Way I imagined as a distant relative of Nostra Damis
and friend of Nostra Dnacy lives in Seattle with his wife,
who's a vegan. So it's problem anyway. So Rodgers has
been not an upgrade. He has not been a downgrade
for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Aaron Rodgers is a lateral move.
(06:40):
It is a lateral move here. It's a flat line. Rogers,
what is my evidence? Well, I've got the eyeball test,
but if you're blind, just go out the numbers as well,
or the audio test from listening to the games on
the radio. So Aaron Rodgers is the fourteenth rank quarterback
in football. He is a guy that's in a sandwich.
It's a turd sandwich because on one side you have
(07:00):
Mac Jones of the forty nine ers. On the other
side you have Tyrod Taylor, a couple of backup quarterbacks.
Rodgers is stuck between them. You're not waning playoff games
with that type of performance. But he loves the preparation,
Aaron Rodgers, Yeah, it's great. You know who else loves preparation,
Bill Nye, the Science Guy. Would you like to see
(07:20):
Bill Nye, the Science Guy, under center against the Ravens
on a third down and twelve in the fourth quarter
in bad weather? I wouldn't. Maybe you would. That should
be a should be good for the show. So I
guess I would like to see that.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Rogers isn't making anyone better right now. That's the issue.
In his younger days, back in the day, Aaron Rodgers
was able to elevate his teammates, which is what the
great quarterbacks are able to do.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
That's why Rogers will end up in the Hall of
Fame and all that. But you've got.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
One bazuka, one bazouka, and that's DK Metcalf. That's it, period, stop,
that's all. You got everything else on that roster. You
look at the playmakers on the Pittsburgh Steelers and it's
like a neighborhood garage. You got a lot of cast offs,
old lamps. Over to the right. If you look over
to the left. There's some busted TVs, but they're tube TVs.
They're not flat screen TVs, they're tube TVs. And then
(08:07):
you've got half used like yoga mats that have mustard
stains on them.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
I hope those are mustard stains. I don't know. Maybe
there's something.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Else that you got all that, and that is what
Rogers is working with at this particular point. And so
this has gone as we anticipated, as we imagined it
would go. It looks pretty similar to last year. Looks
pretty similar to last year in Pittsburgh. It's not better,
it's not worse. It's the same. And the numbers back
(08:36):
that up. The Steelers are twenty sixth in past year,
or they were twenty six last year. So they were
twenty six last year when they had Justin Fields and
Russell Wilson. What are they this year? Do you think
they're like? What do you think twenty if eighteenth in
the NFL in passing? Now, how about twenty fourth? So
they went from twenty six last year with Justin Fields,
who stinks, and Russell Wilson, who's done, and they brought
(08:59):
in an other washed up quarterback, Aaron Rodgers. And so
they've improved a couple of slots and so that that's
your double thumbs up we from Mike Tom. So that's
that's the standard, apparently, right, that's the famous quote from
Mike Tom, And that's the standard. The standard is the standard.
So apparently that's the standard. Standard is mediocrity.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
That's it all. Right.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Now to TV Land we go where a quarterback who
has been a terrible broadcaster trying to make a name
for himself. Now Drew Brees, the former New Orleans Saints quarterback,
Drew Brees, who had a gig at NBC and was
so bad they kicked him off NBC.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I know what that feels like.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
So Drew Brees called the Eagles. He called the Eagles
offense boring. He said it's boring, and he left Jalen
Hurts off of his list.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Not my list, Terry in England.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
That's his list, his list of top quarterbacks early in
the NFL season, Drew Brees did not have Jaland Hurts
in there, which, by the ways, we'll get to this
at a sec but it's.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Not that big a deal. So the question question for you, does.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Drew Brees calling the Saints offense baring make sense to you.
And I'm nodding my head. Yes, I'm nodding my head. Yes,
right now, he's not wrong. He's not wrong. The Eagles
offense is efficient. It's not sexy, it's efficient the Eagles.
If you look at the raw numbers, Philadelphia is sitting
(10:28):
twenty ninth in passing yards.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Now I know Ryan Clark's not gonna like this because
I didn't play in the NFL. I don't think that's good.
I don't think that's Oh, you shouldn't say that. You
shouldn't say that. Why'd you say that?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
I don't think it's that good at bottom five? So
that's you know what that is? Sludge sludge, that's oatmeal
without brown sugar. Nobody wants it. Nobody wants it. It's
just terrible. What are you doing? And so they're winning
in the math class, see the math class. They're not
(11:01):
the art class. They're not doing well in art, they're
doing well in math. When you peek at the the
numbers here, they're eighth in NFL, eighth in THEFL on points,
they're number one in red zone, they're eighth and third down.
So those are all positive numbers. But again, the art
is not there, it's not very artistic. And it's it's
(11:22):
like the kid who gets an A plus in algebra
but then ends up drawing stick figures in art class.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
You're like, well, what did you draw that? Well, that's
my art. Well, no, that's not art. That's a stick figure.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Well that's what I do. But you're good at math.
Why are you not good at art? Well, it's I'm
good at math because I like numbers. I'm not good
at art because I don't do art. But I know,
but you got to try. That's a stick figure. That's
not very good. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
That's my art.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
And you go back and forth like that, And the
other thing is, you know it's missing here. The old
Joe Rogan show fear factor, not a lot of fear fact.
Jalen Hurts is not keeping defensive quarters up and night. Well,
who could you say that? The Eagles came back at
Jaalen Hurts living them back? Now, the Eagles won that
game because of special teams, not because of Jaurs. They
won that game that was in the bag for the Rams.
(12:02):
The Rams gave the game away because of special teams blunders,
not because if Jalts Jalen Hurts had a great second half.
I'll give you that. I'll give you the game agains
the Rams. Jalen Hurts played well in say I play
better than I thought in the second half. Had seventeen
yards passing at halftime. I believe great in the second half.
But they still win the game because the special teams,
because they would have lost the game even with all
those passing touchdowns, in all those yards. The Rams were
(12:24):
in position to win the game if it hadn't been for.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Their idiot kick out. I digress.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
So the point is the same. Nobody's getting all worked
up about, Oh man, we gotta face Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Were cooked.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Nobody's tossing and turning and can't sleep and turn on
overnight talk radio and say, oh no, oh.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
My god, how do we stop Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Things that go bumpity bump in the night. And then
you're like, well, maybe that guy Hazel call up and say,
I know things that go bumpity bump Hayes in Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
So you're more worried about when you're in Philadelphia, Like
I'm more concerned about do I order the cheese steak
the right way? With provo or I order it the
wrong way with cheese whisz right. You're more concerned about
that rather than Jalen Hurt's beating. So Drew Brees the
buzz of Drew Brees, if you will, and he got
(13:14):
he got a fair amount of buzz on this. Whether
it's real or not, I don't know. The main reason
this became a thing with Drew Brees is because a
he's milk toast. He's very uninteresting, he's boring. And then
b he went against the x Shock decorum. There's a
patriarch among x Shocks that when they get media jobs,
(13:35):
you're supposed to go on TV and radio and do
podcasts and just pat the young kids on the back,
right way to go, pat him on the head, good
job by you, whoever they are, and tell everyone how
amazing and how great every player is and all that stuff.
Celebrate the game. And instead he actually told the truth.
And that was shocking.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Because he said it and doesn't normally talk like that.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
And they want their quarterback in the presidential suite there
in Philadelphia, and he's not. That's not where he belongs.
And so of course the some of the bird Brain
fans all upset. Now final point, we go to a
story that could be could be related. That's a weasel term,
could be related to the Philadelphia Eagles. But it's in Houston,
(14:19):
deep in the heart of Texas and Houston, and that
is the situation where the Texans have fired a defensive
player we know of. So question, why did the Houston
Texans release aka fire fire safety CJ.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Gardner Johnson. Yes, that's CJ. Gardner Johnson, the.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Big mouth after an zero and three start. What's going
on there? So Gardner Johnson, CJ. Gardner Johnson. There about
a minute, about a minute and gone, the next one,
they're one minute gone, the next that's it. Poof and
that's all. See you later. Turn out the loft. The
party's over. We're gonna cut your ass. So that is
(14:59):
not a roster move.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
It's a statement.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
You know it's Yes, you're shaking your head, Yes you're
not in your head. Yes, it is a statement. It
is absolutely statement. Demiko Ryans the coach who's not looking
so good right now, Demiko Ryans send a message to
the room. You guys are all a bunch of underachievers
and heads are going to row.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
If you do not perform up to our standards. And
so CJ. Gardner Johnson, I know exactly the comp on him.
He is the.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
NFL's version of Patrick Beverly. That is what CJ. Gardner
Johnson is. You hate him until he's on your team,
and then most people, even when he's on your team,
you kind of tolerate him.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
Nah.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
I like Patrick Beverley, but most people don't like his approach.
I love the fact that he celebrated a play in
tournament win for the Minnesota Timberwolves more than any championship.
Someday of Minnesota, the Timberwls will win an NBA championship
and they will not celebrate as passionately as Patrick Beverly
did winning a playing game, which.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Is just tremendous.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
But so anyway, CJ. Gardner Johnson, get to the point, please,
So this guy is like a foot long ballpark wiener.
He's a front runner. He's a guy that will chirp
and when you're ahead, right, great front runner, right, And
it's like a show pony and he's chest puffing and
(16:28):
strutting around and all that stuff when things are going well.
When you start zero and three though, you start doing
inventory and the mustard's off the foot long ballpark Wiener,
the mustard's off the hot dog.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
He's you know, he's.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Got the posing and the preening, but it doesn't really
look that good when you're losing the games.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
And so it's a good pace car. CJ. Gardner Johnson
is a good pace car.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
However, when you are stuck, when you are stuck in
the ditch on the side of the road, he is
not helping push your car out of the ditch.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
He's not.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
Instead, the team's lost three three games to the beginning
of the year here Tennis Tennessee the Texans, and so
he's yelling, remember that famous scene on the Monday night game,
yelling at Baker Mayfield. And then there was the play,
which is really the main reason why he was like, oh,
the game in Jacksonville last week. There's about I think
two minutes or so to go in the game, Trevor
(17:19):
Lawrence throws a bomb to Brian Thomas Junior, and Gardner
Johnson blew the coverage and that set things up for
Jacksonville in that game. And that was hammer meeting nail
in the Texans coffin now se dire Gardner Johnson will
likely end up on his feet. There's a shortage of
(17:39):
defensive players like him, and so I can see him
going back to Philadelphia. But the Texans looked at the
film and they're like, well, this guy's gotta go, bye bye,
you gotta go.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
And it was the coaches.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Who were like, this guy's these guys get a little
too comfortable Tomko Ryans and so we got to shake
it up there. And like the coach is saying, Dimiko
Rymes is like, I will cut a veteran with a name,
a name that people know.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Of, and I will do it. No one is safe.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
You're not safe. You're not safe. You're not safe. Get
in line or get out. That's it. And so it's
supposed to be a wake up called will it work, Well,
we'll see what kind of tomato cans the Texans have upcoming.
But if you're you're honest, anywhere CJ. Gardner Johnson goes,
there's an expiration date. Yea pass some pass him around.
He's a glue guy. He is a glue guy. However,
(18:32):
when you're winning, he's a glue guy. When you're not winning,
he's he's like Elmer glue that doesn't really stick. And
you know, it's not a good glue. It's not the
gorilla glue. It's like the Elmers. You know what I'm
talking about. Anyway, it is the Bean Mahler Show. Yeah,

Nineties it was a nineties, Anyway Nature boy there was
A pauli short move IF i remember. Credit, Yeah Nature boy,
says why can't The dodgers just let their starters finish
the job like real pitchers did? Before don't even need
to Use Tanner scott, says Nature. Boy, well this is
(22:26):
one of the things that's changed to. Baseball And i'm
glad you brought this up BECAUSE i had a conversation
with someone that has covered baseball in the media since
the nineteen, seventies old timer, guy and he was explaining
to me from boots on the ground in baseball that
the way baseball has been taught the last twenty five
(22:48):
years is different than it had been taught the FIRST
i don't, know one hundred and fifty or two hundred
years of, baseball whatever it. Was and so it used
to be that a starting pitcher like Even Nolan, ryan
the greatest strikeout picture of all, Time Nolan, ryan would
kind of settle into a, game and you, know first
two or three, innings he'd he'd throw, hard but he
wouldn't let it. Rip and then once he got to
(23:12):
the fifth inning of the sixth, inning he would then
let go and start throwing.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
Harder the guys would throw harder later in the.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
Game now pitcher's coming to the, game and right away
they throw as hard as they possibly can, throw because
that's the way it's being. Taught they don't paste. Themselves
and there's no art to. Pitching there's no let's just
nibble around the edges and we'll change speeds and, ah
you are looked at like you have pink polka. Dots
(23:40):
you have pink polka. Dots if you try to pitch that,
way you're not supposed to pitch like.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
That you're not supposed to do it. Anyway let's go
to the.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Phones mike is In tempee And mike is up. Next
