dot com is the way tire buying should be. You know,
we talk about this game last night. Oh the blah
blah blah. Yeah, take the over Idol car. Yeah. You
would think these teams could put some more bleeping points
on the board. Man, if only the game and the
point totals were as good as the Ravens uniforms, we
would have a splendid, splendid game going. Oh you know me,

(01:09):
I like a little deeper purple. I like a little
more smoke on the water. TJ. Yeah, No, I get it, joke,
but they are resplendent times. I'm a bit of a
highway stardj okay. I'm knocking at your back door. TJ okay.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
But five weeks ago, nobody bothered to play defense. What
we have seventy nine total points, So going down to
fifty three, I'm like, that's still a huge drop off.
Doesn't matter. We're going for it on fourth downs. We're
causing chaos. Yeah, and still.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Fourteen seven as we start the second half, fourteen fourteen seven.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
At least, and even that we got the gift because
you had the holding penalty in the end zone. Otherwise
that was gonna be an empty trip. Deontay Johnson has
caught a pass. Hey, he looked like he was just
gonna catch his first pass.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Of the night, but he slipped and fell. Second pass
the night when he slipped and fell, and Lamar Jackson
was going to throw to him. So this is where
we sit right now, very early in the third quarter,
Bengals with a fourteen to seven lead over the Ravens.
And look, I picked the Bengals last night. Look his
games are close.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Six and a half is a lot of points in
a game like this, And so far we're getting the
offensive performance from the Bengals that I thought we were
gonna get. Joe Burrow looks pretty sure.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
He's moving well in the pocket, extending plays and you
know he is captain ats for you there he is.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
I'm telling you what you like against the spread. That
is Joe Burrow two. He looks pretty good against a
really bad defense. And Chase Brown is running the ball
well enough, He's got a touchdown running We told you
it was going to be his backfield. He got that gift. Man,
I am as soon as they called that flag came
out like really really, I don't think you can call
holding on a defense when they're gonna throw from the one.

(02:56):
I think that goes out the window. But I'll tell
you the Ravens, it's been a bit of a shock
because the Bengals defense. Look, we know how bad the
Ravens defenses. We understand this Bengals defense is just about
the same. Well, but coming into the here we struggle.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
We liked lou Ann Rumo squad until they started playing football,
and for the.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
First time weeks those pesty games are getting the way
to season. I mean, it looked really good.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
We had it all mapped out there, coming off a
strong twenty twenty three campaign with some additions, and and
then they came out and they've they've stunk every week
until here, all of a sudden, there are Wizards against
Lamar Jackson. Suddenly hadn't figured out they had nine touchdowns
between these guys five weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
I know, it's it's insane, and I thought, oh, we're
gonna be like twenty one seven a halftime. No, we
come stowing it na really, you know, I won a
thirty for thirty on Vegas odds makers who know, Like
they just sit there and go, yeah, I just knew.
How did you know? I just knew. I just knew.
Uh So again, what the what did the over goo

(03:59):
off that fieldfty three and a half, fifty three and
a half, fourteen to seven, fourteen to seven. Plenty of
football left. But look, the one thing to tell you
about this game, and this has been some kind of
play that just happened. If you like offense, Joe Burrow
has just hit Jamar Chase for a pass over the
middle that should have probably gone for about fifteen yards, right,

(04:19):
that's about a fifteen yard completely let me run alongside
you say it's it's wow. And watching the way the
Ravens just refuse to tackle Jamar Chase. He cuts through
about three guys and goes all the way. It's a
seventy yard touchdown to make it twenty one to seven.

(04:40):
There are four guys surrounding him and they just kind
of stand there like what are you gonna do? What
are you gonna do? You know, they look like, you know,
they're like they look like like if my dog gets
off the leash and I want to get him before
he goes into the street, what do you mean, like
how I approach him? No, no, I'm saying. If he's on
the leash and I'm walking with him and somehow he
gets off, if he sees something, he runs against something, okay,

(05:02):
just making sure yeah, no, no, like and he's awfully but
I want to get him before he goes into the street,
And how you approach him, Like I kind of approach
him like okay, kind of a wide stance. My arm's
are going, hey, Benny, Hey, come here, Benny, Benny, come here, buddy.
Is just like when you go for a hike in
the woods, and you gotta get big if you're running
into a bear, and you kind of move a little slow,
and you can kind of stand right and go, hey,
all right, come on, I don't want to don't want

(05:23):
to spook you with any sudden movements, and I want
to come and pick you up and okay, great, we're
not going to the street. That's kind of exactly how
the Bengals approach tackling or the Ravens approach tackling Jamar Chase.
In that play, there's four guys around him. It should
have been four guys hitting Jamar Chase, and Jamar Chase
is getting up going, dude, don't throw me those hospital
balls like that. But instead he's run through four guys

(05:45):
who don't even get close.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
But my favorite down the field is that you've got
Jermaine Burton, who last week was getting his ass tuned
out by Joe Burrow for sitting on the bench during
the game.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
He's just running. He doesn't block anybody.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
He doesn't have to because the Rave just don't bother
converging on Chase at all. It is a pathetic display
of defense that's almost like, you know, defending a hail Mary.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
I mean that that that play that's gonna be taught
in schools about, hey, this is how you don't tackle.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
JJ Reddick would be sensed right now about the effort
of those defensive backs. He might throw his microphone down
and just get up and leave.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
I mean, really, that that that play. I'm stunned. I'm
absolutely stunned. I'm stunned seeing that the JA so you
know how bad they are.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yeah, but that's the thing, right, you play it to
fourteen to seven, right, long protracted drive to start the game.
That was a hell of a drive from the Bengals
right off the jump. Go for it on fourth down.
Eventually they get the penalty and they shove it into
the end zone. But otherwise they've played them pretty solid, right, Ben,
don't break all of it, and then that's the play

(06:53):
that you're gonna give up, that easy a sprint to
the end zone.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
Come on, if they win tonight, right, if the Bengals
win this game tonight, this is a big win because
the Ravens are the best team they've played and beaten
so far. So if you're believing in the comeback of
the Bengals, this throws the division into a big tizzy
now because now clearly anybody but the Browns can win

(07:18):
this division. And it kind of goes along with what
we've talked about with the Ravens, where boy, they have
some games where they just look incredible and they look
like the best team in the NFL, and then they
have weeks where they show up and it's do you
guys practice, did you practice at all? Just get on
the plane and fly here like you're incredibly flat and
it doesn't look like you have any kind of game
plan for what the other team is doing. And that's

(07:39):
kind of what the Ravens look like tonight. And this
happens to them, not just once or twice a year
that what happens to NFL teams, but it's like the
fourth time already this year this is happening.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
This would already be their fourth conference loss. All Right,
we talk about Lamar Jackson the Ravens and what they
do to NFC squads, but in conference they've been a disaster.
And to your point, we've had a couple of instances
where they haven't played well down the stretch and gave
games away. I mean that one against the Raiders is
still gonna.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's one for the ages.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
Considering they fired a bunch of those guys, they might
as well put up a banner for that victory. But
you look get here, Joe Burrow and the Bengals. Once
you get past week two, they seem to like to
play football. I don't know what the hell you know.
I'd like to change that, or I can I draft
guys start in week three from your squad.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
The Bengals have already petitioned in the NFL to start
the NFL season October first. Oh, if that happens, Boile,
it'll be great. Do you think they're watched too busy
watching Red's baseball? And then Ti first they know they're
not playing anymore. I tell you, Elie de la Cruz
is so exciting. I can't not turn away. So we'll
have more on this game again. The Ravens really just

(08:47):
look incredibly flat and not at all we expected. The
Bengals are out to a big lead twenty one seven,
but it is. But how do you wear those be
that flat? Maybe that's what it is. It's a lot
of Jews, too much time looking at the uniforms. Wow,
look how purple this is? This is great like you

(09:07):
like that girl from Almost Famous Purple. Your aura's purple.
It's purple, purple. Can I stay in your room? It's purple.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
If you keep doing that, you're starting to drift in
the Buddy Hack territory.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Uh so again not a surprise. Here's the Ravens. There
a flat so far, but again a lot of time
left in the game. Meanwhile, tonight's game on Amazon Al
Michael's Kirk curb Street, who didn't shed a tear today
seeing the post by Kirk curb Street. Ben, his dog
that we've seen living his best life over the course
of the past few years. Yeah, going to all kinds

(09:45):
of games, and you know, Kirk Kurbstreets called him his
best friend. And I don't think anybody was living a
better life than Ben. It was just an unbelievable thing
seeing him in the booth with him, how calm he
was at games and big you know, you got cannon's
going on and fireworks and Ben, It's just like, this
is really cool, man, I'm here. But we knew the
last few days that that Ben wasn't doing well, and

(10:07):
Kirk Kirbstree put the post up on social media today
that they had to put Ben down. And it's just
I can't tell you how I was affected by this
that it was just like in the last two years,
I went from I'm never I was never a dog
person because I was allergic to dogs my entire life.
Like I'm never having a dog. I don't just get
the animal. The animal thing I understand, but I just can't.

(10:28):
I don't have the experience. And then we find a
breed of dog that I'm not allergic to, a multi poo,
and we get Benny, and and now I can't imagine
that we haven't had a dog, you know, every day
we do. It's like he's you know, he's yeah, look,
I'm not saying anything that people that have dogs that
don't know. It's like he's remember the family. You're like,
you're going out with him, It's like he's one of
your kids. And and I just see the story about

(10:50):
Ben today, just see how happy the dog was and
how you know, and I'm just seeing all the things
trend on him and rip Ben and Rainbow Bridge, and
I'm just like, oh man, I just lost it for
a couple of seconds. Like everybody with their pets, I'm
the same way. I never had I had a dog
briefly when we were a kid. They brought home a
big dog. My older brother taunted it at the top
of the stairs. Guess what kid goes down the stairs,

(11:11):
who gets punished? Dog? No more dog, so he goes
he goes back from wendsay came probably probably a goodness
the dog that was probably that's you know what, that's
one of those Hey, that trade worked good for both sides. Probably.
I'm sure the dog had a better life, and so
did you. Also a proof of concept.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
All right, you guys can't handle a dog, We let
you get a dog.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Blah blah blah gone.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Uh So when we finally I was the holdout for
for bringing Tutt into the house. And now that's my
my constant companion, naps on me.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
We go for our walk.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, I mean he's everywhere. He's a pain in the ass,
but he's mine. But seeing everybody with their little runs
of videos of them with their pets, and and obviously Herbstreet,
you know, has talked so much about it, and we
had some fun with it, and then you find out
the dog's getting sick. You know, like you find that comfort, right,

(12:02):
you find that space because sometimes you just hit like
the dog hug at the end of the walk is
the best you do a half hour and then you
sit down on the stairs and the dog walks up
and just puts the head on the lap.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
I mean, all's right with the world, Like I had
all ready to settle now, but I have to go
do laundry. No, no, no, you're gonna sit on the couch
with me.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, but for the next two minutes we're gonna have
this moment of peace and you're gonna move on. So
good thoughts to to herb Street and obviously a life
well lived for the dog. I mean, got to see
a lot of cool stuff. Man, if only you could
process the thoughts, right.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
That's the biggest thing is that to see Ben in
all of these settings where most dogs would just get
spooked freaking out right, Because yeah, when you do have
people yelling and there's a craw and there's a fifty
thousand people screaming and there's fireworks and there's canons, that's like.
But Ben is just like, yeah, cool, I'm at the.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Game canons and whistles and screaming, and.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
I mean to have that kind of temperament and I
know that they're you know, there was always the push, ah,
is this the dog's best lives? Is? Lots of dogs
like being around humans more than like being around dogs,
want to be around their humans more. And I haven't
seen anything that made me think that Ben didn't like
anything more than being with Kirk Krbstreet. So I completely

(13:17):
get that.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Never understood it took me a long time. Respected people,
you know that you know, this is my kid and
whatever else, Like, I always thought it was a little odd.
And then get a little bit older and you see
how those kind of relationships and where you find what
you need to get through a day. Right, we're all
trying to go one to know however you get there
without hurting anybody else.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Good on you Fox Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show

really confused. That Phoenix, that's what. No, that was That

Okay Matthew. You didn't have to, but you couldn't design
from Matthew. That's my brother. He likes you more than

(18:25):
I do. Man, He's like your blanket idle. All right.
Uh So, Matthew Perry, quick update from the NFL before
you get into a story that will prove to you
that the earth is going to still spin. Lamar Jackson
with a Lamar Jackson type play the Ravens capitalizing on
a Chase Brown fumble. It was having a pretty good
game and it just got it ripped out. The Ravens

(18:46):
recover and a Lamar Jackson Russell Wilson type fade back
play where I run from side to side, there's nobody open,
but somehow I'm able to run past the line of scrimmage,
tiptoed down the sideline and get in the end zone.
Lamar Jackson runs about sixty yards on the play that
I think went for about twelve and now it's a
game again. Twenty one fourteen, Ravens trail the Bengals, still

(19:10):
four and a half to go in the third quarter.
I mean, I don't know what to say. Just a
great run by the actually he gets out at the one,
Yeah he gets the run. But a run by Lamar
Jackson all the way down to the goal line where
it looks like this is a play that's not going
to get any.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
With that kind of pain tiptoeing. I'm not out of bounds,
but I'm close to the sideline. Don't come and hit me.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Just a just a really horrible turn of events for
the Bengal.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
Now that escalet quickly and you get another touchdown for
Derrick Henry.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
Meanwhile, the G League in the NBA will be starting,
starts tomorrow, right, yep, yeah, let's go. Bronnie James has
been assigned to the G League by the Lakers. He
will debut Saturday against Salt Lake City. But he should
have been with for the last week. I mean, this

(20:02):
is a story that makes everybody sit back and go, Okay,
the earth is still going to rotate, the sun is
going to come up tomorrow. Brownie James and the fact
that he's not in the G League even though the
G League doesn't start yet, what do you want him
to do? Uh? Now, Oh, he's in the G League,
where he belongs. I feel like the world is back
and on its spinning on its axis. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
I mean, I'll listen to the argument to a degree
of well, he should be getting minutes in rotation and
practice and everything else with the guys he's going to
be in the G League with. But he wasn't the
only guy relegated to the G League today. Other teams
did the same thing. Right now it's time, Oh, you
league league? The G League hasn't started. What do you
want them to do there's no games yet, what do

(20:44):
you It's not like they keep practicing and practicing in practice,
it's the GI I mean, they get their workouts, but
isn't the time valuable with the big club? Of course,
even if you're only getting a couple of minutes being
in those meetings, being in those workouts, isn't that helping
develop you? Like, I don't know where that disconnect is
because there were so many people shouting about.

Speaker 1 (21:04):
It's like the games start this weekend. It's okay. And
the one thing that everybody should see is that it's
clear what the Lakers have done so far. Bronnie James
is not gonna play any more than he absolutely has to,
or anymore then here's a couple of minutes here or
there as a defensive replacement playing at the end of
games in a blowout. The Lakers aren't saying, hey, you're

(21:25):
playing instead of Dalton Connect or you're gonna be in
a starting lineup. No, the Lakers have run it fine,
and now that the G League season is starting, this
story should simmer down. The temperature on it should come down.
But this has always been the plan for him to
go back and forth between the Lakers and the G League,
And right now the plan is for him to play
in all the G League home games, and then as
long as they don't interfere or overlap with games where

(21:48):
the Lakers are are away, he'll play with the Lakers
in the other games as well. So he's gonna build
back and forth between the Lakers and the G League.
And you can be upset about the fact he doesn't
deserve to be here this all, but the Lakers are
doing They're running this as best as you can.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Right this is But also the other stuff was hot
take nonsense. Well, my high history agree.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Look, yes, it's the look the Lakers and Bronni James
is about headlines. I'm not saying it's not. It's absolutely
about headlines that they know if we can't win a title,
what brings us relevancy, what gets us noticed. It's the
Jerry Jones philosophy of hey, I'm gonna make a trade
to the deadline even though we shouldn't, just because I
want to own the day they get Bronni James. Okay,
they're keeping Lebron James happy. Okay. Not the first team

(22:31):
to draft players to make players happy. There's players who
canvas for guys out of college. Hey, remember when Lebron
was draft Shabaz Napier, Draft Shabaz Napier. Okay, that he
drafted Schabez Napier. Nobody went crazy about that in the league?
How many years at this point, But it's Lebron and
he's polarizing, and I understand it. It's just I think

(22:51):
I want people to see that now that Bronni's gonna
be in the G League. Okay, do you really feel
like this is a story to be so full throatend
upset about. This wasn't the fabric of the NBA being
ripped apart. It was did they do a little bit
of a favor form? Yeah? Does it help them publicity wise? Absolutely?
Has it hurt the team, No, not at all. Is
it working out now? Yes? It is? Okay. Sometimes there's

(23:13):
stories where Okay, what are you really so mad about?
Let's take a breath and calm down and and and
let's move on and understand that there's a proportional response
for a story like this, and gondrive and tell love
the cleft. That's not what's going on now.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
You could have a lot of problems with the NBA
product as a whole through the first couple of weeks,
I'll hear those discussions, but the whole Browny James doesn't
deserve to be here shouting out and down nepotism. H Meanwhile,
you're making calls and sending emails on behalf of your kid,
the kid down the street, your cousin, your nephew, someone
else that you ran into at a bar or whatever

(23:50):
else to try to get them in like let's look
in the mirror for a second about what we're doing
with our lives here, uh, and and how we're using
any class that we may have ourselves in the expanded
media world. So that was always the part of it
that really just kind of ticked me off, Like guys saying, well,

(24:10):
he doesn't deserve that jobs, Like how many people have
you placed in jobs where they haven't earned a damn thing,
or that they got.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
A job because of their surname.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
They got plenty of radio hosts and TV hosts who
went to the wall screaming about this, like, yeah, let
me bring on my kid to talk about this, like
he just graduated with.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Like he got no reps in hereas you know, Like,
but hey, if you have the opportunity to do it.
Who am I to be gudget? I don't have to
like it. You don't have to like the Brownie James thing.
It's five minutes in an eighty two game schedule that
had no consequence whatsoever. They're still gonna be bad and
they're gonna get blown out by good teams like we

(24:47):
saw last night. Did him showing up on the court
mean anything? If anything, maybe someone should have asked the question.
There could have saved old DiAngelo Russell. A little bit
of blowback got We got more coming up and naughties.
I had that big story out of the NFL that
it actually can get worse. But first a guy's gonna
tell us what's trending. Who actually got his job? He

(25:08):
is a NEPO kid. His dad, his dad, Sagar to
Sager had this job Seger forty years and then Steve
de Sager comes in and he's been doing it here
now for the past years with us at Fox.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
That's not only an incredible lie, it can't possibly be true.
This network has not existed for forty years.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Well what it used to be before? I think it
was nothing. It was NBC. Yeah, exactly. We got the ranchestertrific,
I've you do it, change, You'll be a coke.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
Just to end of the third quarter of tonight's NFL
game at Baltimore, Bengals lead the Ravens twenty one to fourteen.
It was a twenty one to seven lead after that.
Jamar Chase catching run of sixty seven yards. In fact,
the run part was almost fifty yards out of the
sixty seven. He reached the top speed of almost twenty
one miles for being chased by the Ravens. His only

(26:02):
two higher speeds this whole year on scores came against
the Ravens earlier this year, but answering were the Baltimore
Ravens after being down twenty one to seven, forced to
fumble few pays later did score Derrick Henry a one
yard TD and that's why we're twenty one fourteen Cincinnati

(26:22):
to start the fourth Derrick Henry has scored a touchdown
now in ten straight games to start the season. The
record is oj Simpson, who scored in all fourteen games.
That's as long as the season was in nineteen seventy five.
Lamar Jackson with an incredible ten yard scramble. That's his
longest run of the night. He only has ninety three
yards passing, but that does include a short TD pass

(26:45):
to Nelson Agalore in the first half for the moment
six and three record for the Ravens Bengals four and five.
Wide receiver t Higgins of the Bengals out again tonight
with a quad injury. Baltimore safety Kyle Hamilton left with
an ankle injury. Carolina gave running back Chewba Hubbard a
four year extension worth about thirty three million dollars. Panthers
wide receiver Adam Thielen did not practice due to a

(27:07):
bad hamstring. The forty nine Ers expect running back Christian
McCaffrey to return to play this Sunday. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence
of Jacksonville is likely out this weekend with a left
shoulder injury. He was limited in practice again today. Titans
quarterback Will Levis practice fully for the first time in
three weeks after his shoulder injury. Tennessee running back Tony
Pollard did not practice due to a foot injury. The

(27:29):
Florida Gators say Billy Napier will continue to be their
head coach. Friday night on Fox TV, Iowa at UCLA.
The three NBA games are all done. Wins for San Antonio,
Minnesota and Milwaukee beat Utah in a battle of one
in six teams one twenty three to one hundred. Damian

won it's eighth straight five to one over Pittsburgh, Buffalo
upset the New York Rangers six to one, and Florida
got a six to two win Againstsville. The Winnipeg Jets
are twelve and one and leading with a minute left
one nothing over Colorado.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Back to you, Thank you, Steve. The Jason smithser with
Mike Carmon live from the Tireck dot Com Studios. Now
you didn't think it could get worse for the Dallas Cowboys,
but it really can. Did the calendar flip another day? No? No, no.
A couple of stories out of Dallas camp when we're
wondering what's gonna happen with Dak Prescott. Likely he's gonna

(28:26):
hit ir. We told you the last couple of nights. Look,
you're not gonna see him again. The injury is too bad.
Plus he's not gonna want to come back when the
team is four and ten he's done. The Cowboys say
their confidence is still there with Cooper Rush at quarterback,
and that I'm okay with because we did see Cooper
Rush come in when he had to play, when Dak
got hurt and played Okay. He's had some moments where

(28:47):
you would say, do we really have to give Dak
sixty million dollars a year? Cooper Rush is not bad.
Now you are winning games a different way. Cooper Rush
is not dynamic at all, but they were winning games now.
This is also a different for Dallas Cowboy team than
the one he played for, where he was the head
of the snake going, hey, I feel pretty good about
this now. The other part of it of this, how

(29:09):
things get worse for the Cowboys. Michael Parsons did an
interview today in which he talked about the rationale behind
Jerry Jones making the Jonathan Mingo trade, the really bad
trade in which you could have got him for a
seventh round pick, but he said, nope, giving up a
fourth because that's gonna get the headlines. We get up
a seventh rounder, no one's gonna talk about it. But
fourth rounder for a guy who stinks, Yeah, that's gonna

(29:29):
be us. Michael Parson said, hey, I get what we're
doing because Jerry Jones is sending a message that we're
not done. I'm gonna always try to improve this team, right,
That's what I'm gonna continue to try to improve this team. Okay,
this is where to tell you that's a pretty good line, though,
how things getting worse. He's good in pr He's been
learning from you. This is we're trying to improve the

(29:52):
team by getting Jonathan Mingo. We could have given up
a fourth round pick for DeVante Adams couple weeks ago.
Fonte Adams loved to have a star in the side
of his Sure, get him to the Jets. They they
were they were okay giving Davante doing what he wanted,
giving him to a team with the quarterback that he won,

(30:14):
So they would have been okay, get him with the Cowboys, right.
You could have had to play with death for a
fourth I think, well, at that point, it was still
that right, and it was being a cowboy. Okay, it
was a joke. You know, you said, hey, let's make
a bitter changeable. I'm just gonna extend that line. Could
have had Deontay Johnson for a fourth round pick. And
while it's been slow going for him getting involved in

(30:35):
the Ravens offense, he's still a really good receiver. You
add all of these players out there who you could
have gotten, and I get the philossei of oh, here's
Jerry Jones trying to make the team better. But this
is how things get worse because Jerry Jones, I don't
think even looked into this until he saw it on
his to do calendar for Monday. Get a wide receiver.
Oh gotta do it now. Trade deadline is tomorrow. Like

(30:57):
most teams, hey, we got to jump ahead. We have
to make sure we're getting what we need ahead of time.
We don't want to lose a guy. Obviously, some trades
are made at the deadline. There's a lot of poker
being played back and forth. But if you know your
your season could be frittering away, you gotta be excited.
You got to go make that trade. And I feel
like Jerry Jones just like kind of woke up on
Monday and said, oh, trade deadline tomorrow, let's go do something.

(31:18):
And he goes and gets Jonathan Mingo when all the
other guys you could have gotten for fourth round picks,
we'll get it, we're all gone, Like I feel like
it was on his calendar. Oh, I set the reminder
on the phone. Didn't know what this alarm is for.
I got a lot of alarms going off, to know
what that one's for, to know what that one's for,
that one's for, it ae's for. But oh, this alarm
went off. This is a go trade for a wide receiver.
Like he woke up on Monday and said we should

(31:39):
go do this and that's why he went out and
made the t a his next radio spot. Those guys
should ask him. So, Jerry, is your understanding of the
trade deadline that it can only happen between midnight day
of and the actual deadline because everybody else jumped the
line in front of you for wide receivers. It's not
like buying concert tickets where right at midnight they go
on sale and good click. But that's the thing is,

(32:01):
that's what Jerry Jones did. It's like, okay, this week, oh,
I should get a wide receiver, Like why aren't you
you see how bad the team is? Why didn't you
get a running back couple weeks ago? You could have
gotten Ramandre Stevenson from from the Patriots You've got a
running back to be able to do stuff, but instead
it's wait, what the hell's going on? I understand why
were you could have done that? But no, here I'm
gonna go overpay for a guy that might not even

(32:23):
be in the league in the year, and instead here
we are making this move on Tuesday. That doesn't make sense.
J Jerry Jones Right.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Well, the Michael Parkers is like also talking about his
own potential trade value and all sorts of stuff like that.
That whole podcast got a little weird and untoward in
terms of whether he sticks around. He got it deep
into well he gave me his, uh his luxury box so.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
My friends and I could be at the super Bowl. Yeah,
I love Jerry, but you know, if Jerry wanted to
talk to me, he just called me into his office.
I'm like, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Are you foreshadowing what's gonna happen here or are you
telling us that this happened and then it didn't come
to fruition.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
The Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmon Live from the
ti rack dot Com Studios. Uh, just want to give
you an update here on the game. We are now
tied at twenty one early in the fourth quarter. This
is because Tylan Wallace just caught a pass at the Ravens'
own twelve yard line, A nice little out should have

(33:21):
been pushed out of bounds three times. Instead, the Bengals say,
anything you can do, we can do worse. You saw
how you had none of us, none of you guys
tackle Jamar Chase on that touchdown. We'll show you how
we can't tackle. And instead of pushing him out of bounds,
Wallace is able to go all the way down the
sideline for a touchdown. It is twenty one twenty extra

(33:41):
point pending by Justin Tucker. This is a play I mean,
I don't know. Each team has decided, Hey, as bad
as we can do defensively, we can wind up doing worse.
And speaking of worse, Tucker misses the extra point, So
it's twenty one to twenty Bengals with the lead. Hell
Man fourth quarter the other if I'm one of his team,
Matsip yelling he's not a quarter back. Hit him on
the side. I mean, how they can't push him out

(34:04):
of bounds. They have three shots at him, and instead
he goes all the way down the sideline for a
ninety yard toucho man.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
Both passing stats from Lamar Jackson just really went through
the roof and we're gonna get our over.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
We got stats, we got points, we got a close game.
Let's go. It's everything you want more. Exit out about
a Fresca exit swolling down The Jason Smith Show with
my best friend Mike Carmon coming up next. Looks like
we are gonna see a big quarterback change Sunday. And
the big news is the guy coming in will be
just as good as the guy he's replacing. And that's

(34:35):
a bad news for the guy he's replacing. It's not
Aaron Rodgers. He's got guaranteed money. What are you talking about?
That's next, Chason of Mike Fox. Be sure to catch
live editions of The Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon
weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven pm Pacific five Second
Dance Party Who Everybody's gonna have to answer for their

(34:57):
sins of their life and Tight Shirt's gonna answer for
it is at some point. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
But if that's the worst that he's done, he's okay.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
That's not no, there's much worse. This is on the list.
This on the list, you just made the list. Nea,
He's gonna get to the pearly Gates and God's gonna go.
Oh tyshon, Oh, We've been waiting for you. Hang on,
hang on, hang on, hang on. Did you really play
Tears for Fears every night even though you knew it
was causing some kind of stress on your radio host?
Did you really do that? Oh? Thanks for reminding me,

(35:23):
big guy almost today. Did you do that? Did you
really do that to the guy? Uh? The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Carmon Live from the TIREC dot Com Studios,
twenty one to twenty Bengals with the lead over the
Ravens A Justin Tucker missed extra point the difference in
this game right now, nine and a half to go.
We'll have more in this game coming up in a
few minutes. But it looks like we're gonna get a

(35:44):
quarterback change this weekend. Okay, and I'll give you a
ball prediction. Yeah, the guy coming in is gonna play
just as well as the guy who's not going to play,
And boy, is gonna be bad news for this team.
Trevor Lawrence likely going to miss Sunday's game against min Soda.
The shoulder injury likely gonna keep him out, and then
some real cryptic wording in the reporting of this story

(36:07):
today that he's gonna probably miss Sunday's game. Mac Jones
will play instead as he ponders what's next in his future. Obviously,
he just signed a big contract, which is part of
the thing. But pondering his future is do I come
back and play this year at all? Or do I
just put it away and come back next season? The
Jaguars are terrible? Is it gonna serve me to come

(36:28):
back and play? All? Right? Are you gonna hurt it
any worse? Right? I mean, that's really the end game
to all of this. What's the risk? Is he gonna
have surgery? Will he have surgery? Is that knock him
out for the season. That's the next step for Trevor Lawrence.
But as far as that goes, I'll tell you what's
gonna happen. Mac Jones is gonna come in and he's
gonna play kind of like Trevor Lawrence. And that's bad

(36:51):
news for the Jaguars man because I've told you from
the beginning, Trevor Lawrence is not great. He is the
most overpaid player in the NFL. Anybody giving you league
average play like Trevor Lawrence and not pay him fifty
five million dollars a year. I get that it looked
bad if you didn't extend him, because he came out
of Clemson as the best quarterback prospect in a decade

(37:14):
and what happened he wasn't And it's embarrassing. But we
gotta pay him because it looks bad if we don't. Uh,
look at what you did. You paid money. The guy
had one really really good year and outside of that, boy,
he's been league average. And you're gonna have Mac Jones,
who the Patriots tossed on the scrap heep and said
we don't need you anymore, and he's gonna come in

(37:34):
and he's gonna play just as well, not better, not
like the world on fire. Not three hundred yards a
week in three touchdowns. But can he go one eight
eighty five and a touchdown and a pick? Can he
go two hundred yards two touchdowns and an interception? Can he? Absolutely?
He can do that. And the Jaguars are gonna say, Wow,
we're stuck with Trevor Lawrence. We're stuck with the guy

(37:55):
because we overpaid him and there's nothing we can do.
You gonna talk about worst contracts in the NFL, Well,
that's that jumps up to the top after the Browns
do whatever they're gonna do with with Deshaun Watson. Because
Trevor Lawrence has had time to prove with different coaches,
different systems, different playmakers. They have done everything for him
in Jacksonville. They've gotten them different wide receivers, they hired
him the quarterback, friendly head coach. They've done everything, and

(38:18):
he still looks like he has hit his ceiling. He's
not dynamic. He turns the ball over way too much.
And now he's going to be out and you're gonna
get the same kind of play from a guy that
was a backup quarterback with the Patriots who could have
could be either in the league or not in the league.
And that's a huge thing. I mean, there's no more
overrated player in the NFL than Trevor Lawrence.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
Well, we'll see how quickly folks adapt to system schemes,
et cetera. Because remember all the disservices and problems that
were going on in New England. Patricia, here's another random
guy to be your offensive coordinator. I mean, they did
that guy wrong every every which way. You know, as
a rookie, he's appropriate.

Speaker 1 (38:56):
But he's also a guy I'm but he also had
a little too much full, too much of himself, a
little bit too much of an attitude. So I'm gonna
say all.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
Those reports I always take with a grainess.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
So you don't go outside of the out of the
team to call somebody and say, hey, what's going on here?
Whoa whoa, whoa, dude, what are you doing? I mean,
it's it's I would say, I'm not going to excuse him,
but I will give blame to both sides. How about okay,
how about that? But either way he goes down to Jacksonville.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
I mean, Doug Peterson's you know, made all his headlines
because being asked about Sam Donald in New Spaces kind
of in the idea of, all right, what are you
expecting from mac Jones, what's he doing in a new environment,
And then he attributed any of Sam Donald's success to
the presence of Justin Jefferson just categorically dismissed that Sam

(39:43):
Donald's actually learned anything.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
We'll get to that next hour. It's just kind of
an interesting thing. I like that. But for mac Jones.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
Here's your opportunity, but they're on the hook for all
that cash.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Telling you man, that's gonna be a big deal when
you see him playing just as well as Trevor Lawrence. Look,
I'm trying to find an over under for his yardage
exit out about a Fresco exit swalling Dome. We got
more NFL on the way, as well as another Dodgers
player blow torching the Yankees. This is Fox, very minor,
