Speaker 1 (00:47):
Buying should be well, he thought, coming in tonight, look
at these Monday night games, right, Miami's gonna kill Tennessee.
Giants are gonna lose to the Packers, and that's gonna
be interesting because Jordan will in the conversation nope, nope, nope, nope, nope,
Tommy Cutlets and the Dolphins choke. That's the topics of
conversation that we're gonna have for the rest of the
(01:09):
night into tomorrow. Tommy Cutlets and the Dolphins Choke, which
sounds like like a music bill at Coachell or somewhere. Hey,
I'm seeing Tommy Cutltz with Special Guts Dolphins Choke. Oh yeah, yeah,
I saw that double bill last week at the Wilton
in La Man.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
It was fantastic.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Obviously, we have to do one thing. We always do
it for you.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
On days you're not here and the Jets play, or
there's an excruciating Mets or Nick's loss. Can one of
our people check in on our guy, Arnie span you
right now noted Dolphins Hong right now, he's probably not
well after that absolute choke job and no show effort, right,
(01:53):
Because that's the other thing we have to talk about, right,
You got to do the deeper dive when it comes
to that Dolphins thing we started a little bit last out, Jason,
is the fact that their offense was held in check
by the Tennessee defense for most of the night. Right,
the touchdowns were short or defensive. And now you're looking
(02:13):
at Tyreek Hill unavailable late. How bad is that injury?
And on the other side, you're in hell because Tommy DeVito,
former Syracuse quarterback led them to another win. Suddenly five
and eight and back.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
In the hunt.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Oh, Tommy Cutlets. Now we'll get to Tommy Cutlets coming
up in a bit. When he's done signing autographs and
signing cuts of meat.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
We'll get to just.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Signed a giant, giant persudo.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Hey, hey, will will you sign this side of beef?
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Friday just right, just signed his gabbagoul just right to Jimmy, Hey,
keep it up with the meat and then you right,
Tommy Cutlets, right, you do it?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Fun if you do that for me, I got a
big side of beef you I could put in the
back of your car.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I could do it.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Can they redo that cut that meat commercial? Because this
guy you can actually believe might have done it.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
They just redo it AI and it's Tommy Devino instead
of Peyton Manning. It's just right out there. Hey, it's perfect.
We got Tommy Devino there. Uh, we'll have more listen,
We'll have more on Tommy Cullins because we have to.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
But this Dolphins choke is just unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
The Dolphins lose this game tonight after a two fourth
quarter jets like fumbles that they wind up getting that
not even the Jets. Have You had a fumble on
a punt return that the guy shouldn't even been near
the ball.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Then you had a fumble on just a simple pitch play.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Both of these were covered by the Dolphins inside the
ten yard line, and they go win for touchdowns to
give them a two touchdown.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Lead with just four minutes left to go.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Let'll still get that got screwed.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Away from the ball.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
No, but if that guy doesn't grab his arm, he
probably is able to catch it cleanly.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, but when there's that kind of chaos at that point,
I know you want to catch it, but you gotta
step away. And he kind of waved his arm like, dude,
what are you doing. I mean, you gotta get away
from the ball, right, you gotta get away from it.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
But it's a gift.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
But like I said, it was a gift gift. This
was a gift that that doesn't change anything. They got
two gift plays. They got the gift on that fumble,
they got the gift on the pitch that didn't work,
and the Dolphins should it should have been it because
the Titans should have quit. We're on the road where
four and eight, we have a rookie quarterback.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
We have it.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
We're down by two touchdowns with four minutes left to go.
The last seven hundred and sixty seven teams.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, you know that sttchdown lead.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
That's a great that's great stat.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
The last seven hundred and sixty seven teams that had
a two touchdown lead in the final three minutes had
won their games. This is why I say, if I'm
a Dolphins fan, I don't sleep tonight because I get
that right. I've had Mets and Jets losses where I'm like,
it's three o'clock in the morning and I'm listening to
Joe Benigno on WFAN with a guy saying, God, Joe,
(04:50):
why did Testaverdy thrown up all away on third and seven?
Speaker 3 (04:53):
I was in section forty four. I still can't get
to sleep, Joe. I don't understand why he did that.
He had Keith Sean White open. I don't know what
he was doing.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Oh yeah, dude, let's I mean that was I've had
nights like that, man, where I'm like, I just can't
This is that night for the Dolphins when you blow
a lead like this, when you are supposed to be
this elite and you wind up losing.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Jason, you got to go check on your blood brother,
Frank the Tank Man.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Oh yeah, Dolphins fan Frank, And yeah, he's not gonna
be hav I'm waiting for his video.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Look, I'm sure there's gonna be a Frank the Tank.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Vico's already starting and your guy, Tommy Devino also broke
the huge streak Matt Lafleur's first December loss.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
He had run up sixteen straight wins. Tommy Davino, Hey.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Lafleur, Jony loves Chacchi. But this is what the issue
with the Dolphins is. Right now I'm gonna tell you
about because now this is what makes all the big
criticisms make sense. And you've heard now for how long
to a tongue off I looa doesn't have the arm, right,
you've heard all long, doesn't have the arm, doesn't have
the arm.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Look at him underthrowing Tyreek Hill. Well, well hang on
a second.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Sometimes to it can't win because the guy's either an
MVP candidate or he's terrible. But even when he has
big games, it's look at him underthrow Tyreek kill on
this right, he had the touchdown pass a week ago
that would that made headlines because I think it was
one of the Dolphins beat writers said, look at Tyreek
Hill have to come all the way back around for
this ball where two throws to the wrong place, and
Tyreek Hill goes on x formerly known as Twitter and says, no, no, no,
(06:17):
it is my mistake because I ran the wrong way.
I readjusted to go back and catch the football. So
I get that Tua can't win. But you watch tonight
right Devon ah Chan should have had an eighty yard touchdown,
but he stopped running on a pass that two of
throws deep to him. He winds up diving for the
football and he can't get it. And I wonder if
that's why eight chan snaps decreased over the course of
(06:39):
the last quarter because he was wide open. It should
have been a touchdown, but he stopped running for whatever reason,
and Tua still was able to overthrow him on a
ball fifty yards downfield.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
The whole thing with two of.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
His arm is not about throwing deep, but it's what
we defall to because when we think a guy doesn't
have an arm, it's all look at him throw. He
can't throw the ball deep, and guys are waiting for
the ball to come down. The real issue with Tua,
and you saw it in the final because that you
saw it a few times tonight is when the play
breaks down, and if you can get pressure on on Tua,
(07:11):
you make plays breakdown. And this is where a lot
of the great quarterbacks eat. Right what, Okay, the play
breaks down, but I'm still stepping up the up in
the pocket and I'm finding a guy or I'm making a.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Play for a first down. Right.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
But the thing about Tua is that when the play
breaks down and he's not able to go through his progression,
he's got to move a little bit when he's on
the run or he's on the move and has to adjust,
and the receivers are all you know, they're all in
their routes. Tua, because he doesn't have the arm, can't
just stop and throw one for a short gain across
(07:42):
the field. He can't just stop and get you know,
he's not fast enough to scramble for a first down.
But looking, he can't just stop and say, okay, I'll
take the short game here and I'm just gonna zing
one out to the running back or zing one to
the wide receiver or the tight end.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Right, he can't.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
He can't make those Zach Wilson tight throws. Because that's
a big thing about watching Zach Wilson yesterday was when
he's rushed off his back foot and he's singing these
passes to Breisee Hall in the flat where they should
have been losses, but instead because he gets it out
there fast off his back foot, because he's got that arm,
the Jets turn what should be a five yard loss
into an eight yard game. Like Tua can't make those throws.
So when he's forced to get outside the pocket or
(08:20):
run around, he does have a little bit of panic
in him, and he's got to have a little bit
more grace under pressure. But honestly, quarterbacks get bailed out
by their arms. They get bailed out when they can
throw the football. And he can't make something out of nothing.
And that's the problem. And you saw that on the
final drive and the final play.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Two.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Has got to find a way to get two yards
on fourth and two, right, But when he's scrambling around,
there's guys that are around, but he can't stop and
throw from the middle of the field all the way
to the side where Jalen Wattle is, or stop and
throw all the way to the other side where Devon
chan is somewhere. He can't make those throws, and that's
what he struggles with when he does because he doesn't
have the arm strikes. It's those when the plays break down,
(08:57):
he can't get the ball and sing it where he
needs to where a lot of quarterbacks can make that quick,
zippy throw and get a couple of yards right and
know the value of a two yard play versus waiting,
waiting waiting get an eight yard loss. That's what two
A struggles when you talk about two or not having
the arm. Those are the plays I see it on
more than just him throwing it deep, because if he
throws it deep, we say, look at this ball, but
(09:18):
somehow Tyreek Kill catches it behind the defense and it's
a touchdown. If it was really underthrown, the defensive backs
would be there waiting for it. They would be there
waiting for the ball to come down and say I
got it. But instead Tyreek Kill is still behind everybody
and he's there for a touchdown. So that's where to
look when you say, hey, two, it doesn't have the arm.
That's the place to look.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
At saying it's too high too high.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Now.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
Look, the other thing is to there were a number
of plays in this particular game as the pocket broke
down that he seemed reticent to take off with the
ball where he'd have running lanes in the middle of
the field and instead was still trying to hope that
containment would break and we'd get caught from behind. Right
(10:01):
with Tyreek Hill unavailable for a good chunk of the game,
you know, you take away some of that angle. Waddle
made a couple of plays for him. You saw the
run game both Moster and hen you mentioned Chen and
the touchdown that wasn't But you know, we had a
couple of throws, you know, from from to a trying
(10:21):
to go deep that you know, just some fails and
timing being off, but good work by that defensive line
of the Titans. Take nothing away from what they were
able to do there. And the Titans as a squad,
the fumbles and the issues, they gave you every opportunity
to take this game. You didn't want it, you gave
(10:42):
it back. Good teams. Steal this and say thank you
and escape. Right now, you got a mess that McDaniel's
gonna have to try to figure out here coming out
of this one and just hope that Tyreek Hill doesn't
miss significant time.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, you know, he came back into the game after
being out for the I think the three minute mark
of the first quarter into the second half, and when
he came back out there, hey, the dolphin showed a
little bit of life. But still even with Tyreek Hill,
they had a tough time getting the ball downfield. And
you saw because the Titans were able to disrupt him.
Speaker 6 (11:16):
It's because he eats McDonald's.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
Now, you know I did send you guys that picture.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Wait a minute, Okay, okay, let's see why he got hurt. Okay,
stop for a second, here, stop for one second. Okay,
hang on, Okay, two is important. But I need to
say this. There is no correlation that Tyreek Hills showing
up and eating McDonald's before the game. You don't know
him getting hurt. No, no, no, you don't know what either.
You can't just you can't just selling McDonald's like that
and say, oh, he must have gotten hurt because he
(11:43):
had a big mac.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
No, no, no, you can't say you do not know.
You do not.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
I don't know what's in the.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Okay, maybe was well, why wouldn't it be a big mact.
It's the best thing you could get, A.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Giant nugget meal. I mean, you don't know, could have been.
You're definitely getting one of those share meals, right, I
mean there's a.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
Lot of stuff. There's no chicken those.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
I mean where you can get you know, I here's
a couple of burgers, some fries, and a couple of
drinks and all of that stuff and a nice price
for you.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Now they still do that one.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Hundred big nuggets for like thirty bucks at the least.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I think it's a little more expensive, right, But yeah, yeah,
you know he.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Used to do it, used me well.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
And then I remember in the late nineties because guys
at work would do that at ESPN all the time.
They'd say, hey, you got money, got money, we canet
a hundred big nuggets and go get him because McDonald's
across the street from from ESPN.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
In fact, you want a great you want a great story,
real fast is a great story with me. So you
remember how we schwab right stuff? Okay, how he's great dude.
I worked with him over a long in front of
the show. Great dude, how we schwap so one night

assistant of the ESPN and we're all working and we're

Don't I don't feel good. I don't feel good. And
we're like, we're like, what's meg is? I don't feel good.
I don't feel good, and we're like, what's going on?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
I don't what's He says, well, you know they had
and this is back when it was one hundre McNuggets
for twenty bucks, right, something like that's what it was
in the late nineties. He goes, oh, you know McDonald's
has that that one hundred McNuggets for twenty bucks deal,
and he all said, yeah, you know where the story
is going, but it doesn't matter. He goes yeah, we
go yeah, I go, well, so I got it tonight
and I had too many and we're like, oh, how many?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Way, and he goes seventy five or eighty A dare?
I mean? Come on now, I don't know, but.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
I guess I could just see where you just start
eating McNuggets going they're so good, They're so tasty, though
you don't think about it.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
I just keep popping them in.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Sure, it's like eating pieces of bacon. I just keep
throwing them in there.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Wow, I've never done that, but you can make nuggets
thing I can relate to do a degree.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah. Oh dude, you can't you you can not hang
this on McDonald's.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Man, Jason, can we agree it wasn't hit the hip
drop tackle?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
No we can't.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
No, it was okay, No, it's the bas not what's
in the bag?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
No McDonald mcdogy. I want you to find some kind
of study. You find some kind of doctor and not doctor.

Monday Night Football.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Why was the field?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Wow, it just showed the picture of him walking in
with the McDonald's and then him walking to the side,
walking to the locker room.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
That's McDonald's. It's McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
There's no correlation, no correlation, none at all, none at all,
whatever it is, none, absolutely zero. Can't do that to McDonald's, man.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You can't do it. Can't do it. Exit.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
How about a Fresco exit swollen dome. The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Hartman Live from the Diirec Dot com Studios.
So yeah, well that's going on. Just think about that
for two and next time you watch the Dolphins, next
time you see him where he's under duress and they're
able to get pressure on him. That's where he struggles
because he can't just zip those small throws out there.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
That's who you look at with Tua.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
You just ruined everybody who doing Wammageddon t shirt. You
ruined it for everybody. You ruined it.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
No way you ruined it.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Man.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Oh you're welcome Fox Sports Radio the Jason Smith Show
with my best friend Mike carbon I miss you, George.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Well, no, wait, do you know what I'm talking about
with Wammageddon?
Speaker 7 (16:17):
No?
Speaker 6 (16:17):
I just know George Michael sings it.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Okay, God's good.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
There's a huge deal and people do this. I didn't
know this until it came up in a big story
a few days ago. Across the world, but mainly in England.
There's a contest that people have where it starts on
like September Oneirst, whatever it is, and people try to
avoid not hearing the song last Christmas and when you
(16:42):
hear it, it's on you on the honor system to
say hey, I heard it on the radio here whatever
it is and you're out, and the last person standing
who who doesn't hear Last Christmas wins, right, And it's
whatever money the way, but it's on the honor system
and it's a big deal. I call it Wammageddon. And
there was a big soccer match in England and last
weekend and the DJ decided to play Last Christmas like
(17:05):
at halftime, and it knocked out like two thousand people
from this like like of the ten thousand people at
the game, it knocked out like two thousand people.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
They like wanted the guy fired.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
He had to put out a statement say I apologize.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Like they want they want.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
That's odd because they got knocked out away again that'sity.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
You know, you knew the risks. You went to a
public place where they will play music.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Yeah, but apparently in England it's a real thing. Like
you don't do it just to make people lose that bet,
like it's like a whole thing there. Like here in
the United States, people do that for the super Bowl.
There's big bets that that that that people make the
last person to find out who won the Super Bowl
wins and and there's a bunch of people who do
it every year. So it's a whole big thing and
(17:50):
it's on the honor system. When I hear about the
super Bowl, I wind up, you know, telling the people
I'm in the pool with. But it's like it's like
like a like a religion in England. When they do it,
it's got a big deal. I understand.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
My daughter's get a rock and rendition of that at
the mallor Mansion the other night.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Oh, very nice, out of a big deal. Yeah, very nice.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
You have the party we weren't invited to, Jason.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
It's a party in the USA. Uh So, while while
Alex Tischer is ruined again.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
For anybody doing that, you're welcome that ruining.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Christopher Lee Agatin because we haven't hear him.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
I mean you added him to your playlist though, admit it.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Uh No, I didn't really know, because I got enough
of it here.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Really, I get enough of christ I get enough of
Christopher Lease count Duke's Christmas album here, I know.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
I mean you talk about going from you know, Stings
Winter album into uh the Tall Christmas Album into Christopher Lee.
I mean that's great, yeah, yeah, no, but sing and
have yourself a merried little Christmas A minute Dark Mark

I thought you talking about Harry Potter with a dark mark.
No no, no at the Quidditch World Cup and suddenly all
the dark.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Word no, no, no, nothing having to do with Potter World.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Now, I do need to say this before you get
we get to other NFL. Do you need to say this?
Speaker 1 (19:15):
I still have a television because remember what I say
last week? I said, if the Jets loosen up Zach
Wilson on Sunday and he throws for three hundred yards
and three touchdowns, I'm gonna throw my TV out the window.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Right Why didn't you? Because because you're a liar.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Zach Wilson threw for three hundred yards and two touchdowns.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
I would say that's close enough.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Same you sent me.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
Whenever I say, hey, do I get this right? For
this prediction? I made some say no, you got to
get it right on Smith, you got it good. No, no, no,
but now here it's oh, it's close enough. You go
make up your mind.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Either it were no, no, no in this particular case.
Speaker 8 (19:53):
No.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
In this particular case, you ruined the ability for us
to have great content of you smashing a television. Think
about that if you actually showed it. You know, Frank
the Tanks and nobody. Okay, Yet he gets popular because
he screams and yells and breaks things like an idiot.
You could have been that guy friend of the show
Frank the Tank. You could have eclipsed him this week
(20:15):
by blowing up a TV or throwing a shoe through
a television or any he'll do that.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Can you still throw a shoe through a tele I
don't think you'll do that. I don't care.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
Well, honest, who throws their shoe?
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Yeah? Yet it's not nineteen seventy five? No, but I
think if you.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
All right, so throw a mug like you know, like
my grandma used to do it, my mom, I mean,
you know, let's just get after it.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
So your Christmas was like Christmas with the Bear?
Speaker 4 (20:41):
We got a lot.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
Hey man, the bear ain't got nothing on my family TV.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Is he still holding the fork? He is? Okay, Okay,
let's keep going. Then let's go it.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
What is your TV?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Smith?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
The big TV? I see it's a was it seventy five?
Seventy five inch?
Speaker 6 (21:02):
And you didn't have the guts to break it well.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
First of all, picking it up is be difficult, but secondly,
I got to be a man of my word.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I said three hundred and three touchdowns. It was three
hundred feet.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
I didn't eat McDonald's up.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
I might have been able to, but let's say, hey, Chris,
I didn't Chris russo it and say, oh no, hear it.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
No on, you didn't give it.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
It was three hundred and two touchdowns.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
I can't I but they absolutely opened it up and
Zach Wilson had a career day.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
I know, I know how great was that second half?
To watch it unless it wasn't it listened?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
It was great. But all that's going through my head
is I'm sitting there going why couldn't they do this?
This is why the Jets need a new head coach, right.
It's because I couldn't watch it without Without I couldn't
just watch it and go, wow, this is really cool.
I had to watch it with wow, this is cool.
But why didn't we do this earlier?
Speaker 3 (21:49):
What the hell? Man like?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I'll always go back to this with with Robert Sala
and Zach Wilson.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I tell you that Jets new new head coach because
Robert Sala is not up to this. He's clear up
to building an offense that is a modern offense. In
the NFL, they relied on getting Aaron Rodgers and who
do you want and let's go out and make it run.
But all we've gotten from Sala with Zach Wilson from
the beginning is play boring, just play boring. Don't make mistakes,
(22:17):
don't make mistakes. And you can't do that now. It's
not nineteen eighty seven. All right, I get it. But
Robert Sala's defensive coordinator and he's got a couple of
really good running backs, and he feels like we can
play great defense, phenomenal defense, and win like it's nineteen
eighty seven. Can't do that anymore. You need your quarterback
to make plays. And all they have done since they
got Zach Wilson was telling him don't screw up, don't
(22:40):
screw up, don't take chances, don't throw interceptions. That's not
the guy he is. Zach Wilson is the guy that
you saw on Sunday throwing off his back foot. You know,
get on plays that look like this is going to
be a sack or an incomplete pass. He's able to
zing it out to Breese Hall in the flat off
his back foot, and Breesehall turns it into an eight
yard game. It's rolling to one side of the field,
(23:02):
stopping and turning because he has the arm strength, and
throwing it back across the other side of the field.
The Garrett Wilson for a twenty five yard game that
sets up a touchdown. This is who Zack Wilson is.
This is the guy you drafted, the guy with great
arm strength that takes chances and be's this kind of quarterback.
And all you've done for three years is say, don't
do it, don't do it. So it's no wonder that
(23:23):
Zack Wilson stinks as bad as he does. The guy should,
quite honestly, Mike, and I'll be fair with this, and
I think you're gonna agree with me. Zach Wilson should
be in the entering the prime of a J. Cutler
type career. That's who he should be right now. The
guy that boy his arm strength. Sometimes he makes bad
decisions that you gotta live with, but boy, a lot
(23:43):
of times his arm will get you out of trouble
and win games. And it's a roller coaster ride. But
because he plays so aggressively, you're gonna win a few
more games than you lose.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
And this is who.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
He's going to be. He should be in the middle
of a J. Cutler type career, but instead he's someone who, well,
it was a nice half, and instead he's gonna go
back to the bench at some point when Aaron Rodgers
gets back, or he's gonna get cut and nobody's gonna
give him a chance to start again, right, that's what
it should be. So his bet and look at I'm
not trying to say, hey, Zach Wilson is blameless in this. No, no, no,
(24:15):
Zach Wilson's got to see receivers. He still doesn't see
the receivers down the field that are open all the time.
He's missing guys. He missed a couple of receivers wide
open for touchdowns on Sunday. So he's got his issues,
But it's not like he was helped along. When you
draft a quarterback, you gotta be okay to live with interceptions.
You gotta live with receptions to turnovers. But Robert Salas
want to do that because he's a defensive head coach.
(24:35):
And if we don't turn the ball over. We should
be able to win. And that's ingrained. He will always
see the game through a defensive lens, which is why
I hate when DC's get head coaching jobs, because that's
how they see it. And that's not how you win
in the NFL. Now, you win in the NFL with
forward thinking offense and chucking the ball up and down
the field. Hey, as bed of a loss, it was
tonight for the Dolphins. They're still nine and four. Why
(24:56):
because they got an incredible offense and they got a
lot of playmakers and got that just make you look silly.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
This is how it is.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
And this is why it was so frustrating yesterday because
watching this, I'm saying, this is how it should have
been when Zach Wilson took over. This says, okay, you
know what, Hey, Aaron Rodgers is out. Let's just go
let the kid do his thing. And now because here
we are suddenly after another benching where he comes back
and finally says, screw it, I'm just gonna play my
game and do what I can do, and plays are
called downfield. He's making these plays. This should have been
(25:25):
week two. The guy's been in the offense for a
long enough time. He's been in the NFL long enough time.
We see guys that aren't even on teams showing up
and saying, hey, guess what, guys, Joe Flacco's sitting on
his couch eating cheetos. Two weeks later, he's got four
touchdowns and the Browns have won two games.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
It's been amazing.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Right, you should be able to say, hey, I can
be a pretty good quarterback right away. I've had the talent.
But instead they baby Zach Wilson, they bring him alonder
And now this is something that should have been done,
not even beginning of this year.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
But let's go back to when he was a rookie.
This is who you draft him to be.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
And instead it's, ah, don't make mistakes, don't And you
drill that into a guy, and he's never gonna he's
always gonna not be sure what he sees downfield. He's
not gonna say, do I let it fly?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Do I not? What do I do?
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Do I trust my instincts because once you start not
trusting your instincts, forget it, you're never gonna be a
good quarterback.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
And that's what I saw from Zack Wilson.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Now, finally, this half of football was the best I've
seen him play in three years. That's the best quarterback
Zach Wilson has been in three plus years in the NFL.
The second half of what we saw yesterday against the Texans.
And while it was great and it's fantastic, I look
back and go, We're five and eight and we could
have done this weeks ago. So it's bittersweet because it
comes with happiness and excitement and I'm stoked about it,
(26:34):
and at the same time, I go, where was this?
Why couldn't we have done this year? It's like I
can't even enjoy all then. I can't even just blanketly
enjoy the nice things. I got to enjoy the nice things.
But there's a little bit of a caveat with it, right,
I can't I can't just.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Run out and go yeah no, I gotta.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Pull like a fifty pound slit of bricks behind me
while I'm running with my hands in here.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Going yeah, yeah, yay, this is what it was like yesterday.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
I think the difficult thing for you is recognize and
watching it all the way knowing that the fixes well,
we're staring you plainly in the face along the way.
And then because of your head coach's background and the
way the roster was constructed, So add Joe Douglas to this,
(27:16):
that you decided you liked this guy, but you were
never gonna give him the keys to the car. Just
sit here and occasionally we may call on you to
make a throw. Well, that's not the way this game
works anymore, and hasn't been for a while. And bresee Hall.
If you look by any metrics for the last seven
or eight weeks, he ranks in the forties in virtually
(27:37):
every category, explosive plays or whatever else. Why because there's
no juice to anything. There's no creativity the offense. Hacket,
you know, the guy that got his job the second
act of nepotism, first being his surname, second his relationship
to Aaron Rodgers. Right, I'm gonna come there, but you
know what, I need him.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
I need him.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
I need these receivers that will never see the field again,
and go from there. There's zero creativity in that offense,
and you have one wide receiver plus Tyler Conklin. However long,
however much you want to give him credit towards his progress,
because I think he's actually a pretty good tight end
in today's NFL. That's all you got. But you got
(28:16):
a guy with a live arm, but you don't trust
him to use it. Thinking and look, turnovers are everything.
We talk about it all the time, but the reality is,
if you're not going to use him, go find the
guy that's truly a game manager. And I think the
comparison to Cutler, at least for the physical skill set
and everything, is apt. And if the reports were true
(28:36):
that he was grouse into his teammates, then I guess
it goes down a whole other.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Definitely, that's definitely Jay Cutler man. All you need is
the smoke and Zach Wilson coming off the mat.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
I mean, I did like that Time Person of the
Year faux magazine cover that was going around.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
Did you see that one?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah, oh yeah, that's good one talking about.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
You know, his mom's friends and everything was the subtitle.
But watch what you saw for a half yesterday. I
mean that's the all right, just go do it. But
let's throw Gosh into the wind and see where this goes.
And is it sustainable? Don't know, but I'm sure as
he'll like to find out. Right, it's a more exciting
brand of football one way or the other. And if
(29:17):
you can establish some semblance of a downfield passing game,
guess what Breese Hall gets to be Breeze Hall again
instead of being bottled. I'm not saying you're gonna resurrect
the life in times of Dalvin Cook, but at least
Breeze Hall could be the guy that you drafted him
to be.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Exit out about a Fresca exit.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Swollen Dome the Jason Smith Show with my best friend
my Carment. You know, another time, I'm gonna give you
the difference there was. You know, this week we'll talk
about it, the difference between Breese Hall and uh and
and and what I've seen from Dalvin Cook and why
one is a great running back and.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
One looks like he's at the end.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Because I saw a few plays yesterday, I go, yeah,
that's why Breese Hall is who he is, and why
Dalvin Cook is just hanging on. But again, my high
school off, as that teacher mister Williams used to say,
that's a story for another day. Right now, let's find
out what's trending in the wide world of sports from
the Zach Wilson of Fox Sports radio.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Wow, it is Steve to say, take that back. You
don't want any part of that.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Come on, you know, didn't you use to date one
of your mom's friends. I thought that was what you
told me that story once.
Speaker 8 (30:19):
Don't involve the rest of us in your jet stories.
It's just never gonna end.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
Kind of like reindeer games, except Steve's not clamoring to
be part of them.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
No.
Speaker 8 (30:29):
No, By the way, as we had exciting NFL football
here tonight's little did we know the game that was
in the New York area was actually talked about and
this is making the rounds online by Prince Akim and
coming to America many years ago.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Oh, it was most exhilarating.
Speaker 9 (30:46):
The Giants of New York took on the package of
Green Bay and in the end the Giants triumph by
kicking an outlong bone made a pig skin.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
To a big eighth.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
He was a most ripping victory.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
There you go, Wow, well done, yeah, de Sager.
Speaker 9 (31:01):
In nineteen eighty seven, Wow saw the future New York
Giants on a field goal on the final play tonight
beat the Green Bay Packers twenty four twenty two.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
And you know what the next line is is John
Amos saying, son, I'm gonna tell you this one time.
If you want to work here, stay off the drugs.
Speaker 6 (31:20):
I'm pretty sure. The next line was the Jets could
never do that.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
This game.
Speaker 8 (31:27):
Green Bay had just gone ahead on a touchdown with
about a minute and a half to go, but the
Packers were stopped on a two point run, wound up
losing by two, and the Green Bay lost tonight clinched
a playoff spot for San Francisco. Already, Packers had won
three in a row. Next Sunday, they'll be hosting Tampa Bay.
Giants have now won three in a row. They started
two and eight this year. They're not out of the
(31:47):
playoff chase at five and eight. They're off the bye week.
They get this win and we can update the draft
order for April. It's still a chance that the Chicago
Bears have two top five selections because the Bears, like
the Giants and many other teams at this point, are
five and eight tied for fifth, and we know the
Bears are going to get the number one overall selection
because they own Carolina's pick in Carolina is one and
(32:10):
twelve this season. Tennessee Titans are up to five and eight,
after somehow winning at Miami twenty eight to twenty seven
with two touchdowns in the last three minutes and a
two point pass in there as well. Since two thousand
in the NFL, only one other team had won a
game in regulation when down at least fourteen points in
(32:30):
the last four minutes of a contest. That was the
Chargers five years ago, winning by a point at Kansas
City when Mike Williams in the final seconds had a
touchdown catch and then a two point catch. This Titans
team had Derrick Henry's two short touchdown runs, including the
game winner, and will Levis had thrown an early pick
six in this contest. He wound up with one touchdown,
(32:50):
two turnovers, but three hundred and twenty seven yards passing,
and the Titans, who did not have a single road
win this season, get one at Miami to time against
the Dolphins team that had been five and zero at home.
All this means that Baltimore is now alone and first
in the AFC, and only the one seed gets. Of course,
these days that first round off, it'll be the Jaguars
(33:12):
hosting Baltimore on Sunday night. Jacksonville says quarterback Trevor Lawrence,
with the bad ankle, should be able to practice this week.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert, though is expected to miss Thursday
night's game at Las Vegas with a broken finger. There's
one late game still going in the NBA, about five
minutes to go in La, the Clippers holding on against
Portland one eighteen to one thirteen Kawhi Leonard with thirty points,
(33:36):
Milwaukee in overtime edge.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Chicago.
Speaker 8 (33:38):
Houston sent San Antonio to a seventeenth straight loss. Philadelphia
beat up Washington one forty six one oh one. Washington's
record three and nineteen, and Indiana won at Detroit, and
the Pistons have lost twenty games in a row.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Back to you, thanks a Buch Steve O The Jason
Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmon getting ready
for Piston Spurs on Christmas Day.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
That's gonna be the market. Let's go.

Spurs and the winner plays the Wizards.
Speaker 3 (34:08):
So we're gonna we're gonna get that on Christmas Day.
I like that. You like that?
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Huh pretty nice exit outbout a Fresca exit swollen Dome,
Jason Smith Mike Harmon live from the ti rack dot
Com studio. So I think I think about Zach Wilson
should be in the middle of a j Cutler light career.
Coming up next, we have the craziest story of the
day and a story that we predicted in Fun about
(34:34):
a week ago.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
That's right here, Jason and Mike Fox.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Sorry sorry, sorry, all right, We're live from the ti
rack dot Com studios.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
Jason and Mike. Uh hey, something we turned out to.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Be really ahead of the curve on because you're not
saying with the show.
Speaker 3 (35:05):
Uh he is. He's going to be done momentarily. Uh.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
We said last week, Hey, so what are the Lakers
gonna raise the banner when they win the.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
Ist Christmas Day against the Celtics? Ha ha ha.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Uh Well, it turns out it's gonna be sooner. The
Lakers will put up an in season tournament banner before
they play the Knicks on December eighteenth.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
Now that's your spit, Frostburg.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Your Lakers are spitting in the face of the Knicks
by putting up the banner before they play them.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
You watch the hurt the Knicks put on the Lakers
in that game. You just watch.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Spitting in the Knick's face. We're gonna put this batter up.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
Now, they said, spitting in the face of We're.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Gonna make it look different. It's not gonna look just
like one of the other batters. It's gonna be a
special in season tournament.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (35:55):
It's gotta be a different color, different size, all of that.
It's gotta be uh, it's got to be special. It's
got to be you know, not quite the tailor swift banners.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Yeah, but something like that.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, I I dig we had
the room.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
To add your day, kind of like a championship trophy,
I don't know, for a fantasy football league.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
They even said if they win it in the future,
they will just put you know another you know, hey,
we won it in twenty four or twenty that's good.
They're gonna put it under it on the same bed
but we're gonna raise the batner on the eighteen.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
You know what, though, my philosophy to all of it
is as much fun as we had with that, you know,
because of banners, and we do that all the time
here with the Lakers, and make fun of the Clippers
not having any in the fact that they've always covered
them up and all that nonsense. Is I'm all about
to celebrate, you know, every victory along the way right
to find your wins philosophy.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
So when you make the playoffs, people like, oh, you
only made it as well.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
I don't care.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
I made the playoffs.
Speaker 5 (36:50):
Yeah, celebrate, don't get too crazy, but you know you
want to have a couple of pops, you know, and
celebrate with the squad, have at it right, you know,
have a cigar and enjoy. Get to the next round,
do the same thing. Folks, get all mads until you
win it all. Why would you because life doesn't work
that way.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
You won the championship, let's just in this case awesome.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
Yeah, Jason, don't be jealous.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
The Knicks don't get to hang a banner, that's okay.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
I just didn't think you'd do it this fast, Like, hey,
we want to hang this thing fast. Man.
Speaker 6 (37:21):
You don't know what to say here. You don't think
the NBA is like Lebron do us a favor so
that people really think it's cool.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
Yeah, but you gotta do this fast, right, He's very adamant, right,
he talked about it. It's like it's not often you
get to say you're the first and anything anymore.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Uh huh.
Speaker 6 (37:36):
Right, so you're the first asking the Lakers and Lebron
for a favor here.
Speaker 5 (37:41):
Now, what they really should be doing, justin Jason, is
they should also have a guy coming out like you're
on a game show or one of these you know,
publishers clearing houses, and every one of those guys should
be handed a novelty sized check for the bonuses earned
during the n season tournament.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
Austin reeves, you come on, now.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
You always default a novelty chat like it.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
What else do you want?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
I don't know you, but you're always saying that there's
more to it than just that is more of just
having a novelty.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
But you default to let's just have a novelty chock,
or we.
Speaker 5 (38:11):
Can do it like now now you see me, Hey,
check your bank account.
Speaker 4 (38:16):
Yeah, five dollars.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
Jason, you don't think well, Adam silver toe Lebron, Hey, Lebron.
When you get back into the locker room, you better
shake that champagne bottle like you mean it.
Speaker 5 (38:26):
And don't forget we've already approved your time off request
for the next month.
Speaker 4 (38:30):
We'll see you on Christmas Day.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
You hold up the padd O'Brien trophy, wave it, and
then you tell everybody bye everyone, I'll be back on
Christmas Day. And you had somebody, am right, Frosty the
snowman walk off, somebody the thing somebody, And if.
Speaker 5 (38:45):
That mustache falls off, we'll have that soltered back on
him like he's potato head. Well I thought it was
the padd O'Brien.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
The mustache, Yeah, falling off like it?
Speaker 1 (38:57):
Yeah, put the ears on, put the glasses on, mister potato.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
Don't forget you're angry eyes.
Speaker 6 (39:03):
Although the paddle O'Brien needs a mental finger.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
It's true if you're gonna be true to the man himself.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Yeah, no, I know, I know, I know, Pat, I
just didn't.
Speaker 6 (39:13):
I just want to want to know how many did
he give you in your time here?
Speaker 1 (39:17):
I mean, oh, you know, every time I saw him,
padd O'Brien used to always look to get on the
computer if I was still logged in, and he would
put messages on Twitter that would say things like, oh boy,
padd O'Brien is my hero. I don't like anybody more
than I like padd O'Brien. And I knew I left
myself logged in at work, there's padd O'Brien posting on
my Twitter account.
Speaker 4 (39:39):
You had it coming.
Speaker 3 (39:40):
That was him. That was him.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
But that's why you get the pob trophy, get the
Paddlebrian Trophy.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
Will they paint?
Speaker 1 (39:58):
Will they paint the streets that so we know, oh,

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Buying should be well, he thought, coming in tonight, look
at these Monday night games, right, Miami's gonna kill Tennessee.
Giants are gonna lose to the Packers, and that's gonna
be interesting because Jordan will in the conversation nope, nope, nope, nope, nope,
Tommy Cutlets and the Dolphins choke. That's the topics of
conversation that we're gonna have for the rest of the
(01:09):
night into tomorrow. Tommy Cutlets and the Dolphins Choke, which
sounds like like a music bill at Coachell or somewhere. Hey,
I'm seeing Tommy Cutltz with Special Guts Dolphins Choke. Oh yeah, yeah,
I saw that double bill last week at the Wilton
in La Man.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
It was fantastic.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Obviously, we have to do one thing. We always do
it for you.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
On days you're not here and the Jets play, or
there's an excruciating Mets or Nick's loss. Can one of
our people check in on our guy, Arnie span you
right now noted Dolphins Hong right now, he's probably not
well after that absolute choke job and no show effort, right,
(01:53):
Because that's the other thing we have to talk about, right,
You got to do the deeper dive when it comes
to that Dolphins thing we started a little bit last out, Jason,
is the fact that their offense was held in check
by the Tennessee defense for most of the night. Right,
the touchdowns were short or defensive. And now you're looking
(02:13):
at Tyreek Hill unavailable late. How bad is that injury?
And on the other side, you're in hell because Tommy DeVito,
former Syracuse quarterback led them to another win. Suddenly five
and eight and back.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
In the hunt.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Oh, Tommy Cutlets. Now we'll get to Tommy Cutlets coming
up in a bit. When he's done signing autographs and
signing cuts of meat.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
We'll get to just.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Signed a giant, giant persudo.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
Hey, hey, will will you sign this side of beef?
Speaker 5 (02:42):
Friday just right, just signed his gabbagoul just right to Jimmy, Hey,
keep it up with the meat and then you right,
Tommy Cutlets, right, you do it?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Fun if you do that for me, I got a
big side of beef you I could put in the
back of your car.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I could do it.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Can they redo that cut that meat commercial? Because this
guy you can actually believe might have done it.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
They just redo it AI and it's Tommy Devino instead
of Peyton Manning. It's just right out there. Hey, it's perfect.
We got Tommy Devino there. Uh, we'll have more listen,
We'll have more on Tommy Cullins because we have to.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
But this Dolphins choke is just unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
The Dolphins lose this game tonight after a two fourth
quarter jets like fumbles that they wind up getting that
not even the Jets. Have You had a fumble on
a punt return that the guy shouldn't even been near
the ball.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Then you had a fumble on just a simple pitch play.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Both of these were covered by the Dolphins inside the
ten yard line, and they go win for touchdowns to
give them a two touchdown.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Lead with just four minutes left to go.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Let'll still get that got screwed.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Away from the ball.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
No, but if that guy doesn't grab his arm, he
probably is able to catch it cleanly.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, but when there's that kind of chaos at that point,
I know you want to catch it, but you gotta
step away. And he kind of waved his arm like, dude,
what are you doing. I mean, you gotta get away
from the ball, right, you gotta get away from it.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
But it's a gift.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
But like I said, it was a gift gift. This
was a gift that that doesn't change anything. They got
two gift plays. They got the gift on that fumble,
they got the gift on the pitch that didn't work,
and the Dolphins should it should have been it because
the Titans should have quit. We're on the road where
four and eight, we have a rookie quarterback.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
We have it.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
We're down by two touchdowns with four minutes left to go.
The last seven hundred and sixty seven teams.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, you know that sttchdown lead.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
That's a great that's great stat.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
The last seven hundred and sixty seven teams that had
a two touchdown lead in the final three minutes had
won their games. This is why I say, if I'm
a Dolphins fan, I don't sleep tonight because I get
that right. I've had Mets and Jets losses where I'm like,
it's three o'clock in the morning and I'm listening to
Joe Benigno on WFAN with a guy saying, God, Joe,
(04:50):
why did Testaverdy thrown up all away on third and seven?
Speaker 3 (04:53):
I was in section forty four. I still can't get
to sleep, Joe. I don't understand why he did that.
He had Keith Sean White open. I don't know what
he was doing.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Oh yeah, dude, let's I mean that was I've had
nights like that, man, where I'm like, I just can't
This is that night for the Dolphins when you blow
a lead like this, when you are supposed to be
this elite and you wind up losing.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Jason, you got to go check on your blood brother,
Frank the Tank Man.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Oh yeah, Dolphins fan Frank, And yeah, he's not gonna
be hav I'm waiting for his video.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Look, I'm sure there's gonna be a Frank the Tank.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Vico's already starting and your guy, Tommy Devino also broke
the huge streak Matt Lafleur's first December loss.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
He had run up sixteen straight wins. Tommy Davino, Hey.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Lafleur, Jony loves Chacchi. But this is what the issue
with the Dolphins is. Right now I'm gonna tell you
about because now this is what makes all the big
criticisms make sense. And you've heard now for how long
to a tongue off I looa doesn't have the arm, right,
you've heard all long, doesn't have the arm, doesn't have
the arm.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Look at him underthrowing Tyreek Hill. Well, well hang on
a second.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Sometimes to it can't win because the guy's either an
MVP candidate or he's terrible. But even when he has
big games, it's look at him underthrow Tyreek kill on
this right, he had the touchdown pass a week ago
that would that made headlines because I think it was
one of the Dolphins beat writers said, look at Tyreek
Hill have to come all the way back around for
this ball where two throws to the wrong place, and
Tyreek Hill goes on x formerly known as Twitter and says, no, no, no,
(06:17):
it is my mistake because I ran the wrong way.
I readjusted to go back and catch the football. So
I get that Tua can't win. But you watch tonight
right Devon ah Chan should have had an eighty yard touchdown,
but he stopped running on a pass that two of
throws deep to him. He winds up diving for the
football and he can't get it. And I wonder if
that's why eight chan snaps decreased over the course of
(06:39):
the last quarter because he was wide open. It should
have been a touchdown, but he stopped running for whatever reason,
and Tua still was able to overthrow him on a
ball fifty yards downfield.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
The whole thing with two of.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
His arm is not about throwing deep, but it's what
we defall to because when we think a guy doesn't
have an arm, it's all look at him throw. He
can't throw the ball deep, and guys are waiting for
the ball to come down. The real issue with Tua,
and you saw it in the final because that you
saw it a few times tonight is when the play
breaks down, and if you can get pressure on on Tua,
(07:11):
you make plays breakdown. And this is where a lot
of the great quarterbacks eat. Right what, Okay, the play
breaks down, but I'm still stepping up the up in
the pocket and I'm finding a guy or I'm making a.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Play for a first down. Right.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
But the thing about Tua is that when the play
breaks down and he's not able to go through his progression,
he's got to move a little bit when he's on
the run or he's on the move and has to adjust,
and the receivers are all you know, they're all in
their routes. Tua, because he doesn't have the arm, can't
just stop and throw one for a short gain across
(07:42):
the field. He can't just stop and get you know,
he's not fast enough to scramble for a first down.
But looking, he can't just stop and say, okay, I'll
take the short game here and I'm just gonna zing
one out to the running back or zing one to
the wide receiver or the tight end.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Right, he can't.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
He can't make those Zach Wilson tight throws. Because that's
a big thing about watching Zach Wilson yesterday was when
he's rushed off his back foot and he's singing these
passes to Breisee Hall in the flat where they should
have been losses, but instead because he gets it out
there fast off his back foot, because he's got that arm,
the Jets turn what should be a five yard loss
into an eight yard game. Like Tua can't make those throws.
So when he's forced to get outside the pocket or
(08:20):
run around, he does have a little bit of panic
in him, and he's got to have a little bit
more grace under pressure. But honestly, quarterbacks get bailed out
by their arms. They get bailed out when they can
throw the football. And he can't make something out of nothing.
And that's the problem. And you saw that on the
final drive and the final play.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Two.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Has got to find a way to get two yards
on fourth and two, right, But when he's scrambling around,
there's guys that are around, but he can't stop and
throw from the middle of the field all the way
to the side where Jalen Wattle is, or stop and
throw all the way to the other side where Devon
chan is somewhere. He can't make those throws, and that's
what he struggles with when he does because he doesn't
have the arm strikes. It's those when the plays break down,
(08:57):
he can't get the ball and sing it where he
needs to where a lot of quarterbacks can make that quick,
zippy throw and get a couple of yards right and
know the value of a two yard play versus waiting,
waiting waiting get an eight yard loss. That's what two
A struggles when you talk about two or not having
the arm. Those are the plays I see it on
more than just him throwing it deep, because if he
throws it deep, we say, look at this ball, but
(09:18):
somehow Tyreek Kill catches it behind the defense and it's
a touchdown. If it was really underthrown, the defensive backs
would be there waiting for it. They would be there
waiting for the ball to come down and say I
got it. But instead Tyreek Kill is still behind everybody
and he's there for a touchdown. So that's where to
look when you say, hey, two, it doesn't have the arm.
That's the place to look.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
At saying it's too high too high.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Now.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
Look, the other thing is to there were a number
of plays in this particular game as the pocket broke
down that he seemed reticent to take off with the
ball where he'd have running lanes in the middle of
the field and instead was still trying to hope that
containment would break and we'd get caught from behind. Right
(10:01):
with Tyreek Hill unavailable for a good chunk of the game,
you know, you take away some of that angle. Waddle
made a couple of plays for him. You saw the
run game both Moster and hen you mentioned Chen and
the touchdown that wasn't But you know, we had a
couple of throws, you know, from from to a trying
(10:21):
to go deep that you know, just some fails and
timing being off, but good work by that defensive line
of the Titans. Take nothing away from what they were
able to do there. And the Titans as a squad,
the fumbles and the issues, they gave you every opportunity
to take this game. You didn't want it, you gave
(10:42):
it back. Good teams. Steal this and say thank you
and escape. Right now, you got a mess that McDaniel's
gonna have to try to figure out here coming out
of this one and just hope that Tyreek Hill doesn't
miss significant time.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Yeah, you know, he came back into the game after
being out for the I think the three minute mark
of the first quarter into the second half, and when
he came back out there, hey, the dolphin showed a
little bit of life. But still even with Tyreek Hill,
they had a tough time getting the ball downfield. And
you saw because the Titans were able to disrupt him.
Speaker 6 (11:16):
It's because he eats McDonald's.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
Now, you know I did send you guys that picture.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Wait a minute, Okay, okay, let's see why he got hurt. Okay,
stop for a second, here, stop for one second. Okay,
hang on, Okay, two is important. But I need to
say this. There is no correlation that Tyreek Hills showing
up and eating McDonald's before the game. You don't know
him getting hurt. No, no, no, you don't know what either.
You can't just you can't just selling McDonald's like that
and say, oh, he must have gotten hurt because he
(11:43):
had a big mac.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
No, no, no, you can't say you do not know.
You do not.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
I don't know what's in the.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Okay, maybe was well, why wouldn't it be a big mact.
It's the best thing you could get, A.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Giant nugget meal. I mean, you don't know, could have been.
You're definitely getting one of those share meals, right, I
mean there's a.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
Lot of stuff. There's no chicken those.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
I mean where you can get you know, I here's
a couple of burgers, some fries, and a couple of
drinks and all of that stuff and a nice price
for you.
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Now they still do that one.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Hundred big nuggets for like thirty bucks at the least.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
I think it's a little more expensive, right, But yeah, yeah,
you know he.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Used to do it, used me well.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
And then I remember in the late nineties because guys
at work would do that at ESPN all the time.
They'd say, hey, you got money, got money, we canet
a hundred big nuggets and go get him because McDonald's
across the street from from ESPN.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
In fact, you want a great you want a great story,
real fast is a great story with me. So you
remember how we schwab right stuff? Okay, how he's great dude.
I worked with him over a long in front of
the show. Great dude, how we schwap so one night

assistant of the ESPN and we're all working and we're

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Don't I don't feel good. I don't feel good. And
we're like, we're like, what's meg is? I don't feel good.
I don't feel good, and we're like, what's going on?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
I don't what's He says, well, you know they had
and this is back when it was one hundre McNuggets
for twenty bucks, right, something like that's what it was
in the late nineties. He goes, oh, you know McDonald's
has that that one hundred McNuggets for twenty bucks deal,
and he all said, yeah, you know where the story
is going, but it doesn't matter. He goes yeah, we
go yeah, I go, well, so I got it tonight
and I had too many and we're like, oh, how many?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Way, and he goes seventy five or eighty A dare?
I mean? Come on now, I don't know, but.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
I guess I could just see where you just start
eating McNuggets going they're so good, They're so tasty, though
you don't think about it.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
I just keep popping them in.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Sure, it's like eating pieces of bacon. I just keep
throwing them in there.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Wow, I've never done that, but you can make nuggets
thing I can relate to do a degree.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah. Oh dude, you can't you you can not hang
this on McDonald's.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Man, Jason, can we agree it wasn't hit the hip
drop tackle?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
No we can't.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
No, it was okay, No, it's the bas not what's
in the bag?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
No McDonald mcdogy. I want you to find some kind
of study. You find some kind of doctor and not doctor.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
I will show anybody that questions at the tape of
Monday Night Football.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Why was the field?
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Wow, it just showed the picture of him walking in
with the McDonald's and then him walking to the side,
walking to the locker room.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
That's McDonald's. It's McDonald's.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
There's no correlation, no correlation, none at all, none at all,
whatever it is, none, absolutely zero. Can't do that to McDonald's, man.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You can't do it. Can't do it. Exit.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
How about a Fresco exit swollen dome. The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Hartman Live from the Diirec Dot com Studios.
So yeah, well that's going on. Just think about that
for two and next time you watch the Dolphins, next
time you see him where he's under duress and they're
able to get pressure on him. That's where he struggles
because he can't just zip those small throws out there.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
That's who you look at with Tua.
Speaker 1 (14:52):

Speaker 1 (15:58):
You just ruined everybody who doing Wammageddon t shirt. You
ruined it for everybody. You ruined it.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
No way you ruined it.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Man.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Oh you're welcome Fox Sports Radio the Jason Smith Show
with my best friend Mike carbon I miss you, George.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Well, no, wait, do you know what I'm talking about
with Wammageddon?
Speaker 7 (16:17):
No?
Speaker 6 (16:17):
I just know George Michael sings it.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Okay, God's good.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
There's a huge deal and people do this. I didn't
know this until it came up in a big story
a few days ago. Across the world, but mainly in England.
There's a contest that people have where it starts on
like September Oneirst, whatever it is, and people try to
avoid not hearing the song last Christmas and when you
(16:42):
hear it, it's on you on the honor system to
say hey, I heard it on the radio here whatever
it is and you're out, and the last person standing
who who doesn't hear Last Christmas wins, right, And it's
whatever money the way, but it's on the honor system
and it's a big deal. I call it Wammageddon. And
there was a big soccer match in England and last
weekend and the DJ decided to play Last Christmas like
(17:05):
at halftime, and it knocked out like two thousand people
from this like like of the ten thousand people at
the game, it knocked out like two thousand people.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
They like wanted the guy fired.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
He had to put out a statement say I apologize.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Like they want they want.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
That's odd because they got knocked out away again that'sity.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
You know, you knew the risks. You went to a
public place where they will play music.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Yeah, but apparently in England it's a real thing. Like
you don't do it just to make people lose that bet,
like it's like a whole thing there. Like here in
the United States, people do that for the super Bowl.
There's big bets that that that that people make the
last person to find out who won the Super Bowl
wins and and there's a bunch of people who do
it every year. So it's a whole big thing and
(17:50):
it's on the honor system. When I hear about the
super Bowl, I wind up, you know, telling the people
I'm in the pool with. But it's like it's like
like a like a religion in England. When they do it,
it's got a big deal. I understand.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
My daughter's get a rock and rendition of that at
the mallor Mansion the other night.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Oh, very nice, out of a big deal. Yeah, very nice.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
You have the party we weren't invited to, Jason.
Speaker 1 (18:13):

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Christopher Lee Agatin because we haven't hear him.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
I mean you added him to your playlist though, admit it.

Uh No, I didn't really know, because I got enough
of it here.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Really, I get enough of christ I get enough of
Christopher Lease count Duke's Christmas album here, I know.
Speaker 5 (18:40):
I mean you talk about going from you know, Stings
Winter album into uh the Tall Christmas Album into Christopher Lee.
I mean that's great, yeah, yeah, no, but sing and
have yourself a merried little Christmas A minute Dark Mark
does Christmas Great. The guy was Tracula, he was count
dark Mark was the late Mark Lannakin.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
But yeah, we got it all together.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I thought you talking about Harry Potter with a dark mark.
No no, no at the Quidditch World Cup and suddenly all
the dark.
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Word no, no, no, nothing having to do with Potter World.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Now, I do need to say this before you get
we get to other NFL. Do you need to say this?
Speaker 1 (19:15):
I still have a television because remember what I say
last week? I said, if the Jets loosen up Zach
Wilson on Sunday and he throws for three hundred yards
and three touchdowns, I'm gonna throw my TV out the window.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Right Why didn't you? Because because you're a liar.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Zach Wilson threw for three hundred yards and two touchdowns.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
I would say that's close enough.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Same you sent me.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
Whenever I say, hey, do I get this right? For
this prediction? I made some say no, you got to
get it right on Smith, you got it good. No, no, no,
but now here it's oh, it's close enough. You go
make up your mind.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Either it were no, no, no in this particular case.
Speaker 8 (19:53):
No.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
In this particular case, you ruined the ability for us
to have great content of you smashing a television. Think
about that if you actually showed it. You know, Frank
the Tanks and nobody. Okay, Yet he gets popular because
he screams and yells and breaks things like an idiot.
You could have been that guy friend of the show
Frank the Tank. You could have eclipsed him this week
(20:15):
by blowing up a TV or throwing a shoe through
a television or any he'll do that.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Can you still throw a shoe through a tele I
don't think you'll do that. I don't care.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
Well, honest, who throws their shoe?
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Yeah? Yet it's not nineteen seventy five? No, but I
think if you.
Speaker 5 (20:32):
All right, so throw a mug like you know, like
my grandma used to do it, my mom, I mean,
you know, let's just get after it.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
So your Christmas was like Christmas with the Bear?
Speaker 4 (20:41):
We got a lot.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
Hey man, the bear ain't got nothing on my family TV.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Is he still holding the fork? He is? Okay, Okay,
let's keep going. Then let's go it.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
What is your TV?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Smith?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
The big TV? I see it's a was it seventy five?
Seventy five inch?
Speaker 6 (21:02):
And you didn't have the guts to break it well.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
First of all, picking it up is be difficult, but secondly,
I got to be a man of my word.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I said three hundred and three touchdowns. It was three
hundred feet.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
I didn't eat McDonald's up.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
I might have been able to, but let's say, hey, Chris,
I didn't Chris russo it and say, oh no, hear it.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
No on, you didn't give it.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
It was three hundred and two touchdowns.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
I can't I but they absolutely opened it up and
Zach Wilson had a career day.
Speaker 5 (21:27):
I know, I know how great was that second half?
To watch it unless it wasn't it listened?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
It was great. But all that's going through my head
is I'm sitting there going why couldn't they do this?
This is why the Jets need a new head coach, right.
It's because I couldn't watch it without Without I couldn't
just watch it and go, wow, this is really cool.
I had to watch it with wow, this is cool.
But why didn't we do this earlier?
Speaker 3 (21:49):
What the hell? Man like?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I'll always go back to this with with Robert Sala
and Zach Wilson.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I tell you that Jets new new head coach because
Robert Sala is not up to this. He's clear up
to building an offense that is a modern offense. In
the NFL, they relied on getting Aaron Rodgers and who
do you want and let's go out and make it run.
But all we've gotten from Sala with Zach Wilson from
the beginning is play boring, just play boring. Don't make mistakes,
(22:17):
don't make mistakes. And you can't do that now. It's
not nineteen eighty seven. All right, I get it. But
Robert Sala's defensive coordinator and he's got a couple of
really good running backs, and he feels like we can
play great defense, phenomenal defense, and win like it's nineteen
eighty seven. Can't do that anymore. You need your quarterback
to make plays. And all they have done since they
got Zach Wilson was telling him don't screw up, don't
(22:40):
screw up, don't take chances, don't throw interceptions. That's not
the guy he is. Zach Wilson is the guy that
you saw on Sunday throwing off his back foot. You know,
get on plays that look like this is going to
be a sack or an incomplete pass. He's able to
zing it out to Breese Hall in the flat off
his back foot, and Breesehall turns it into an eight
yard game. It's rolling to one side of the field,
(23:02):
stopping and turning because he has the arm strength, and
throwing it back across the other side of the field.
The Garrett Wilson for a twenty five yard game that
sets up a touchdown. This is who Zack Wilson is.
This is the guy you drafted, the guy with great
arm strength that takes chances and be's this kind of quarterback.
And all you've done for three years is say, don't
do it, don't do it. So it's no wonder that
(23:23):
Zack Wilson stinks as bad as he does. The guy should,
quite honestly, Mike, and I'll be fair with this, and
I think you're gonna agree with me. Zach Wilson should
be in the entering the prime of a J. Cutler
type career. That's who he should be right now. The
guy that boy his arm strength. Sometimes he makes bad
decisions that you gotta live with, but boy, a lot
(23:43):
of times his arm will get you out of trouble
and win games. And it's a roller coaster ride. But
because he plays so aggressively, you're gonna win a few
more games than you lose.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
And this is who.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
He's going to be. He should be in the middle
of a J. Cutler type career, but instead he's someone who, well,
it was a nice half, and instead he's gonna go
back to the bench at some point when Aaron Rodgers
gets back, or he's gonna get cut and nobody's gonna
give him a chance to start again, right, that's what
it should be. So his bet and look at I'm
not trying to say, hey, Zach Wilson is blameless in this. No, no, no,
(24:15):
Zach Wilson's got to see receivers. He still doesn't see
the receivers down the field that are open all the time.
He's missing guys. He missed a couple of receivers wide
open for touchdowns on Sunday. So he's got his issues,
But it's not like he was helped along. When you
draft a quarterback, you gotta be okay to live with interceptions.
You gotta live with receptions to turnovers. But Robert Salas
want to do that because he's a defensive head coach.
(24:35):
And if we don't turn the ball over. We should
be able to win. And that's ingrained. He will always
see the game through a defensive lens, which is why
I hate when DC's get head coaching jobs, because that's
how they see it. And that's not how you win
in the NFL. Now, you win in the NFL with
forward thinking offense and chucking the ball up and down
the field. Hey, as bed of a loss, it was
tonight for the Dolphins. They're still nine and four. Why
(24:56):
because they got an incredible offense and they got a
lot of playmakers and got that just make you look silly.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
This is how it is.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
And this is why it was so frustrating yesterday because
watching this, I'm saying, this is how it should have
been when Zach Wilson took over. This says, okay, you
know what, Hey, Aaron Rodgers is out. Let's just go
let the kid do his thing. And now because here
we are suddenly after another benching where he comes back
and finally says, screw it, I'm just gonna play my
game and do what I can do, and plays are
called downfield. He's making these plays. This should have been
(25:25):
week two. The guy's been in the offense for a
long enough time. He's been in the NFL long enough time.
We see guys that aren't even on teams showing up
and saying, hey, guess what, guys, Joe Flacco's sitting on
his couch eating cheetos. Two weeks later, he's got four
touchdowns and the Browns have won two games.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
It's been amazing.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Right, you should be able to say, hey, I can
be a pretty good quarterback right away. I've had the talent.
But instead they baby Zach Wilson, they bring him alonder
And now this is something that should have been done,
not even beginning of this year.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
But let's go back to when he was a rookie.
This is who you draft him to be.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
And instead it's, ah, don't make mistakes, don't And you
drill that into a guy, and he's never gonna he's
always gonna not be sure what he sees downfield. He's
not gonna say, do I let it fly?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Do I not? What do I do?
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Do I trust my instincts because once you start not
trusting your instincts, forget it, you're never gonna be a
good quarterback.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
And that's what I saw from Zack Wilson.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Now, finally, this half of football was the best I've
seen him play in three years. That's the best quarterback
Zach Wilson has been in three plus years in the NFL.
The second half of what we saw yesterday against the Texans.
And while it was great and it's fantastic, I look
back and go, We're five and eight and we could
have done this weeks ago. So it's bittersweet because it
comes with happiness and excitement and I'm stoked about it,
(26:34):
and at the same time, I go, where was this?
Why couldn't we have done this year? It's like I
can't even enjoy all then. I can't even just blanketly
enjoy the nice things. I got to enjoy the nice things.
But there's a little bit of a caveat with it, right,
I can't I can't just.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Run out and go yeah no, I gotta.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Pull like a fifty pound slit of bricks behind me
while I'm running with my hands in here.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Going yeah, yeah, yay, this is what it was like yesterday.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
I think the difficult thing for you is recognize and
watching it all the way knowing that the fixes well,
we're staring you plainly in the face along the way.
And then because of your head coach's background and the
way the roster was constructed, So add Joe Douglas to this,
(27:16):
that you decided you liked this guy, but you were
never gonna give him the keys to the car. Just
sit here and occasionally we may call on you to
make a throw. Well, that's not the way this game
works anymore, and hasn't been for a while. And bresee Hall.
If you look by any metrics for the last seven
or eight weeks, he ranks in the forties in virtually
(27:37):
every category, explosive plays or whatever else. Why because there's
no juice to anything. There's no creativity the offense. Hacket,
you know, the guy that got his job the second
act of nepotism, first being his surname, second his relationship
to Aaron Rodgers. Right, I'm gonna come there, but you
know what, I need him.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
I need him.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
I need these receivers that will never see the field again,
and go from there. There's zero creativity in that offense,
and you have one wide receiver plus Tyler Conklin. However long,
however much you want to give him credit towards his progress,
because I think he's actually a pretty good tight end
in today's NFL. That's all you got. But you got
(28:16):
a guy with a live arm, but you don't trust
him to use it. Thinking and look, turnovers are everything.
We talk about it all the time, but the reality is,
if you're not going to use him, go find the
guy that's truly a game manager. And I think the
comparison to Cutler, at least for the physical skill set
and everything, is apt. And if the reports were true
(28:36):
that he was grouse into his teammates, then I guess
it goes down a whole other.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Definitely, that's definitely Jay Cutler man. All you need is
the smoke and Zach Wilson coming off the mat.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
I mean, I did like that Time Person of the
Year faux magazine cover that was going around.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
Did you see that one?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah, oh yeah, that's good one talking about.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
You know, his mom's friends and everything was the subtitle.
But watch what you saw for a half yesterday. I
mean that's the all right, just go do it. But
let's throw Gosh into the wind and see where this goes.
And is it sustainable? Don't know, but I'm sure as
he'll like to find out. Right, it's a more exciting
brand of football one way or the other. And if
(29:17):
you can establish some semblance of a downfield passing game,
guess what Breese Hall gets to be Breeze Hall again
instead of being bottled. I'm not saying you're gonna resurrect
the life in times of Dalvin Cook, but at least
Breeze Hall could be the guy that you drafted him
to be.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Exit out about a Fresca exit.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Swollen Dome the Jason Smith Show with my best friend
my Carment. You know, another time, I'm gonna give you
the difference there was. You know, this week we'll talk
about it, the difference between Breese Hall and uh and
and and what I've seen from Dalvin Cook and why
one is a great running back and.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
One looks like he's at the end.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Because I saw a few plays yesterday, I go, yeah,
that's why Breese Hall is who he is, and why
Dalvin Cook is just hanging on. But again, my high
school off, as that teacher mister Williams used to say,
that's a story for another day. Right now, let's find
out what's trending in the wide world of sports from
the Zach Wilson of Fox Sports radio.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
Wow, it is Steve to say, take that back. You
don't want any part of that.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Come on, you know, didn't you use to date one
of your mom's friends. I thought that was what you
told me that story once.
Speaker 8 (30:19):
Don't involve the rest of us in your jet stories.
It's just never gonna end.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
Kind of like reindeer games, except Steve's not clamoring to
be part of them.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
No.
Speaker 8 (30:29):
No, By the way, as we had exciting NFL football
here tonight's little did we know the game that was
in the New York area was actually talked about and
this is making the rounds online by Prince Akim and
coming to America many years ago.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Oh, it was most exhilarating.
Speaker 9 (30:46):
The Giants of New York took on the package of
Green Bay and in the end the Giants triumph by
kicking an outlong bone made a pig skin.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
To a big eighth.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
He was a most ripping victory.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
There you go, Wow, well done, yeah, de Sager.
Speaker 9 (31:01):
In nineteen eighty seven, Wow saw the future New York
Giants on a field goal on the final play tonight
beat the Green Bay Packers twenty four twenty two.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
And you know what the next line is is John
Amos saying, son, I'm gonna tell you this one time.
If you want to work here, stay off the drugs.
Speaker 6 (31:20):
I'm pretty sure. The next line was the Jets could
never do that.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
This game.
Speaker 8 (31:27):
Green Bay had just gone ahead on a touchdown with
about a minute and a half to go, but the
Packers were stopped on a two point run, wound up
losing by two, and the Green Bay lost tonight clinched
a playoff spot for San Francisco. Already, Packers had won
three in a row. Next Sunday, they'll be hosting Tampa Bay.
Giants have now won three in a row. They started
two and eight this year. They're not out of the
(31:47):
playoff chase at five and eight. They're off the bye week.
They get this win and we can update the draft
order for April. It's still a chance that the Chicago
Bears have two top five selections because the Bears, like
the Giants and many other teams at this point, are
five and eight tied for fifth, and we know the
Bears are going to get the number one overall selection
because they own Carolina's pick in Carolina is one and
(32:10):
twelve this season. Tennessee Titans are up to five and eight,
after somehow winning at Miami twenty eight to twenty seven
with two touchdowns in the last three minutes and a
two point pass in there as well. Since two thousand
in the NFL, only one other team had won a
game in regulation when down at least fourteen points in
(32:30):
the last four minutes of a contest. That was the
Chargers five years ago, winning by a point at Kansas
City when Mike Williams in the final seconds had a
touchdown catch and then a two point catch. This Titans
team had Derrick Henry's two short touchdown runs, including the
game winner, and will Levis had thrown an early pick
six in this contest. He wound up with one touchdown,
(32:50):
two turnovers, but three hundred and twenty seven yards passing,
and the Titans, who did not have a single road
win this season, get one at Miami to time against
the Dolphins team that had been five and zero at home.
All this means that Baltimore is now alone and first
in the AFC, and only the one seed gets. Of course,
these days that first round off, it'll be the Jaguars
(33:12):
hosting Baltimore on Sunday night. Jacksonville says quarterback Trevor Lawrence,
with the bad ankle, should be able to practice this week.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert, though is expected to miss Thursday
night's game at Las Vegas with a broken finger. There's
one late game still going in the NBA, about five
minutes to go in La, the Clippers holding on against
Portland one eighteen to one thirteen Kawhi Leonard with thirty points,
(33:36):
Milwaukee in overtime edge.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Chicago.
Speaker 8 (33:38):
Houston sent San Antonio to a seventeenth straight loss. Philadelphia
beat up Washington one forty six one oh one. Washington's
record three and nineteen, and Indiana won at Detroit, and
the Pistons have lost twenty games in a row.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Back to you, thanks a Buch Steve O The Jason
Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmon getting ready
for Piston Spurs on Christmas Day.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
That's gonna be the market. Let's go.

Spurs and the winner plays the Wizards.
Speaker 3 (34:08):

I like that. You like that?
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Huh pretty nice exit outbout a Fresca exit swollen Dome,
Jason Smith Mike Harmon live from the ti rack dot
Com studio. So I think I think about Zach Wilson
should be in the middle of a j Cutler light career.
Coming up next, we have the craziest story of the
day and a story that we predicted in Fun about
(34:34):
a week ago.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
That's right here, Jason and Mike Fox.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Sorry sorry, sorry, all right, We're live from the ti
rack dot Com studios.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
Jason and Mike. Uh hey, something we turned out to.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Be really ahead of the curve on because you're not
saying with the show.
Speaker 3 (35:05):
Uh he is. He's going to be done momentarily. Uh.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
We said last week, Hey, so what are the Lakers
gonna raise the banner when they win the.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
Ist Christmas Day against the Celtics? Ha ha ha.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Uh Well, it turns out it's gonna be sooner. The
Lakers will put up an in season tournament banner before
they play the Knicks on December eighteenth.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
Now that's your spit, Frostburg.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Your Lakers are spitting in the face of the Knicks
by putting up the banner before they play them.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
You watch the hurt the Knicks put on the Lakers
in that game. You just watch.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Spitting in the Knick's face. We're gonna put this batter up.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
Now, they said, spitting in the face of We're.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Gonna make it look different. It's not gonna look just
like one of the other batters. It's gonna be a
special in season tournament.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (35:55):
It's gotta be a different color, different size, all of that.
It's gotta be uh, it's got to be special. It's
got to be you know, not quite the tailor swift banners.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Yeah, but something like that.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
Yeah, yeah, no, no, no, I I dig we had
the room.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
To add your day, kind of like a championship trophy,
I don't know, for a fantasy football league.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
They even said if they win it in the future,
they will just put you know another you know, hey,
we won it in twenty four or twenty that's good.
They're gonna put it under it on the same bed
but we're gonna raise the batner on the eighteen.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
You know what, though, my philosophy to all of it
is as much fun as we had with that, you know,
because of banners, and we do that all the time
here with the Lakers, and make fun of the Clippers
not having any in the fact that they've always covered
them up and all that nonsense. Is I'm all about
to celebrate, you know, every victory along the way right
to find your wins philosophy.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
So when you make the playoffs, people like, oh, you
only made it as well.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
I don't care.
Speaker 4 (36:49):
I made the playoffs.
Speaker 5 (36:50):
Yeah, celebrate, don't get too crazy, but you know you
want to have a couple of pops, you know, and
celebrate with the squad, have at it right, you know,
have a cigar and enjoy. Get to the next round,
do the same thing. Folks, get all mads until you
win it all. Why would you because life doesn't work
that way.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
You won the championship, let's just in this case awesome.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
Yeah, Jason, don't be jealous.
Speaker 6 (37:15):
The Knicks don't get to hang a banner, that's okay.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
I just didn't think you'd do it this fast, Like, hey,
we want to hang this thing fast. Man.
Speaker 6 (37:21):
You don't know what to say here. You don't think
the NBA is like Lebron do us a favor so
that people really think it's cool.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
Yeah, but you gotta do this fast, right, He's very adamant, right,
he talked about it. It's like it's not often you
get to say you're the first and anything anymore.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Uh huh.
Speaker 6 (37:36):
Right, so you're the first asking the Lakers and Lebron
for a favor here.
Speaker 5 (37:41):
Now, what they really should be doing, justin Jason, is
they should also have a guy coming out like you're
on a game show or one of these you know,
publishers clearing houses, and every one of those guys should
be handed a novelty sized check for the bonuses earned
during the n season tournament.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
Austin reeves, you come on, now.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
You always default a novelty chat like it.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
What else do you want?
Speaker 1 (38:05):
I don't know you, but you're always saying that there's
more to it than just that is more of just
having a novelty.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
But you default to let's just have a novelty chock,
or we.
Speaker 5 (38:11):
Can do it like now now you see me, Hey,
check your bank account.
Speaker 4 (38:16):
Yeah, five dollars.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
Jason, you don't think well, Adam silver toe Lebron, Hey, Lebron.
When you get back into the locker room, you better
shake that champagne bottle like you mean it.
Speaker 5 (38:26):
And don't forget we've already approved your time off request
for the next month.
Speaker 4 (38:30):
We'll see you on Christmas Day.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
You hold up the padd O'Brien trophy, wave it, and
then you tell everybody bye everyone, I'll be back on
Christmas Day. And you had somebody, am right, Frosty the
snowman walk off, somebody the thing somebody, And if.
Speaker 5 (38:45):
