Speaker 2 (00:22):
Let's give this part. You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Hello, welcome in side, Happy Monday, the Jason Smith Show
with my BIS friend Mike Harmon. Yeah, let's go. For
over forty years, tire Act's been helping customers find the
right tires for how, what, where they drive. Ship fast
and free backed by free Road, has protection with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation. Tire Ac dot Com
(00:50):
is the way tire buying should be. Well, here we
are Monday Night football, exactly how we thought it would go.
Accept not all early in the third quarter, it has
been all Arizona the Cardinals thanks to thirty two year
old Jacoby Brissett, who somehow is the same age as
(01:11):
Dak Prescott. I have a twenty four to seven lead
over the Cowboys. I want to say, the last time
the Cardinals beat the Cowboys on Monday Night Football was
in Jerry maguire. Oh, that's a good poll. Tidwell has
the big catch goes down, you know, Jerry look nice
and fun. Yeah, I think that's the last time they
(01:33):
won on Monday to beat the Cowboys Monday Night Football
with Jerry. But that's yeah, well, the heat was on TJ.
The heat was on Glenn Fry to give Rod Tidwell
that next new contract. But yes, it has been all Arizona.
The Cowboys only points tonight on a block punt recovered
(01:54):
in the end zone for a touchdown. It has been
an absolute debacle for the Cowboys so far now with
the offense being what they've shown so far this year. No,
they're not out of it. It is the Cardinals. But
this is an absolute debacle for the Cowboys so far.
A day ahead of the trade deadline, Jerry Jones intimated
that the Cowboys may have already made a trade. We'll
(02:15):
get to that in a couple of minutes. But here
they are needing a step to show, hey, we're really good.
We're a five hundred team. We're four to four and
one at the deadline. Let's go get somebody might not
win the division, but we're a playoff team, we're a
wildcard team. We could make some noise. We can make
improvements with a couple of tweaks defensively, and this is
the game you're putting out there. So far through the
(02:37):
first two and a half quarter, just a dismal effort overall.
We watched Jacoby Burssett marching them up and down the field.
Marvin Harrison Junior, who's been on the side of the
milk cartons for a lot of the season, a lot
of drops, a lot of inconsistency. They've been able to
go to him early and off in Eberflu's defense with
no no response. Obviously missing Trevon Diggs in the defensive backfields.
(03:00):
Still some questions as to what all went down there,
but he's not there. Bland his back and healthy doesn't
matter against that zone, they've been carving it up and
Brissett hasn't seen much pressure at all. Go figure, So
maybe there was a pass rusher. Maybe they should have
executed that trade and gotten the guy on the field tonight,
cause sure, well, well right now you got nothing. If
(03:22):
the trade was from Marvin Harrison junior. They probably should
have made it before tonight. Wow, that's yeah, but we
need him for one more game. Okay, one more game.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
But but the the funny thing was off the defensive right,
the special team's touchdown, the block punt. The They must
have gone to that shot of Jerry in the owner's
box for like five minutes, as if he'd run down
on the field and blocked it himself. All the glad
handing and backslapped.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Like yeah, here we comes, like no, no, no, you
still need to actually that was the only stop you got.
And then Stephen A. Smith got up and left after
the Jake Ferguson fumble. That's all right, how about however,
it's time for me to leave when you I gotta
go take it easy, see you later. Yep, thanks for
stopping by, all right? Do you have a nice salmon
(04:08):
suit on?
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Look?
Speaker 5 (04:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I mean as TJ. Clearly, the Cowboys swimming upstream so
far tonight against the Cardinals like this is an absolute
embarrassment for the Cowboys so far, because this is even
the Cardinals team where you can say, hey, here they are.
They do this every year the Cardinals. They have a
little bit of a run or a couple of weeks
where they play out of their shoes and you think, Okay,
(04:33):
the Cardinals are starting to realize their potential. Right They've
been bad for so long now the car and they
do it every year, and they fool you. They fool
you every year. They think, oh, maybe this is it.
But this is a Cardinal team that look, Jacobe Prissett
is starting a quarterback. They don't have either their top
two running backs right Mary Demricado is leading the team
in rushing tonight. Right now, you know they have guys
(04:56):
on this team outside of Marvin Harrison Junior. Okay, Trey
mcbrod's on the top tight ends in the NFL. But still,
as you said, Marvin Harrison Junior hasn't been great so
far in his career. He's kind of been stopping go.
He hasn't flashed as much. But this is a Cowboys
offense that had kind of a down week against Denver
last week, which you kind of get, all right, Denver's
defense is really good. But this is your home on
(05:17):
Monday Night football and you're about to take a field
goal to bring you within two scores of the Cardinals
like that, this is an absolute embarrassment for the Cowboys
at a time, just when I think even I don't
want to say the most staunchest disbelievers, but even people
that are doubting the Cowboys would stop and say, well, offensively,
they're really good. And boy, I could see if they
(05:38):
add a couple of pieces on defense, maybe it gets better.
They can catch lightning about And then you watch this,
you go, oh, no, no, no, the cowboy there who
we thought they were, the cat they are who we
thought they were, defensively giving you everything you thought they
would be. And then so I mean that they've been deplorable.
On this last possession that ends in an Aubrey field
(06:00):
goal for the Cowboys to make it twenty four to ten.
Dak's got the tight end over the middle, too high,
too high. He's not eight feet tall. Just because you
were walking around your neighborhood during the Halloween season seeing
your ten foot skeletons and jack skeleton's all over the place.
That ain't how high your guy can go and get it,
so they end up having to settle for a field goal.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Defensively, you're looking at Arizona giving up twenty two a
game that's top twelve in the NFL, and they're getting
healthy on that side of the ball.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
To your point, they've always scared you. Normally it's an
early flash from Kyler Murray in company, and then about
mid season it falls apart. In this chase, he lose
Benson and Connor early. Here's a question I'm gonna ask you,
and this is for all of you out there, if
you know, you know, Marvin Harrison said that he didn't
really like the offense and was really disappointed in the
(06:48):
offense being run in Arizona, not Marvin Harrison, junior Marvin Harrison.
So do you think that there do you think there
was a concerted effort, given the history of Marvin Harrison
to get his son the ball today, I will say this,
anytime a wide receiver or a relative uh says they
want the football, you give it to them. Right. Anytime
(07:09):
that happens, you get them the football, good things happen.
I'm a firm believer at that that when a guy says,
or a guy's dad who happens to be a great
wireceiver says, get me the football, you get it to
them right, Because that always seems to work out.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Right.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Guys asked for it, you get to them, it works out. Okay,
you just kept Marvin Harrison.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I'm gonna give you.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I'm gonna give you credit, you know. I mean it's
it's Marvin Harrison. But I'll give you the no, I'll
give you this hot take off the off the bat here, right,
because we'll get into this over the course of the
night tonight. Right, Jacoby Brissette's been okay tonight so far, Right,
he's he's been. We always expected Kobe while he's been
one of the best backup quarterbacks in the NFL going
(07:46):
on a decade. Right, you know, he's not someone that's
gonna come in and suddenly be the backup that leads
you to the promised Land or someone worthy of a
big contract, but someone who'll come in and play pretty well.
I know the deadline is tomorrow, so it's a good
time to have this conversation. No, obviously it's not going
to happen. But you know, we talked last week that boy,
if the Dolphins could, they should move to a tounuel
of II LOOA because it's just not working out and
(08:09):
both sides need a fresh start for Arizona. If they could,
I would trade Kyler Murray you've seen the best of
Kyler Murray. How much long you're gonna wait for Kyler Murray?
Oh no, eventually, Kyle, Kyler Murray's been in the league
a minute now. This is not year two or year
three you're looking for. Kyler Murray's been in the league
for a while.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
When you're getting into when you've passed the year five
and you're closing in, well, we're getting closer to the
ten year anniversary than the beginning of his career, you
get that, Okay, what he's done through a bunch of
different offenses, different styles, different inventions of the team, different
playmakers that he's had, and you're still a team that
(08:50):
has not cut through and you've been to the playoffs.
Once you've seen the best of Kyler Murray, are you
really suddenly going to this year catching in a bottle?
Kyler Murray's going to turn the start. He's not not
that he doesn't have value, because there's systems for everybody.
But what you've seen with Kyler Murray in Arizona, when
you've seen him this long and you're still a team
(09:12):
that is rebuilding, you know he's not the long term answer. Now,
could he go to another team and another more savvy
quarterbacks coach can get the best out of one thing.
We know there's a system for everyone, right, system for
Daniel Jones, system for Gino Smith, system for Sam Darnold.
Clearly there's a couple of systems. For Sam Darnold. The
Jets just didn't have either of them, but Baker Mayfield
(09:33):
system for him. But for Kyler Murray, it's you know, okay,
I think there's other teams in need of a quarterback
that can say, okay, twenty eight, twenty nine years old,
we can go in on Kyler Murray. I got I
know he's not a bigger quarterback, but I know how
to get him outside the pocket. I know what we
can do here. He's got a stronger arm than Tua. Yeah,
we can make it work with Kyler Murray and for
(09:53):
the Cardinals. Quite honestly, you should hit the reset button, right.
I mean, how many times, how many coaches have you
gone through, how many offensive systems, how many playmakers? And
Kyler Murray is still someone that Yeah, if you finish
close to five hundred, it's a success. Not that you're
blaming Kyler Murray, but this guy's getting paid a lot
of money where you've seen, You've seen what he can do,
(10:14):
and it hasn't gotten you any place, So okay, you
can do this with somebody else. And obviously Jacoby Brissett
comes in and the offense is functioning at a pretty
high rate. Now this is the Dallas Cowboys defense where you,
me and Frostburg could get on them. But you still
see it's not like Jacoby Brissette has come in to
play the last few weeks and the Cardinals offense looks
like Syracuse without Steve Vangeli. They can't even get five yards.
(10:36):
Like you've seen an offense that without playmakers is still
able to move the ball up and down the field.
If your best players being hurt and your most talented
players being question mark, still you've still been able to
move the football. So what are you paying him for?
Why are you going? Correct? He's obviously not someone that's
gonna sudden all right now we're taking off from too
Kyler Murray Again, he's been in the league too long
now for that to happen.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Well, I think the biggest thing is, as it's currently ructured,
you're not getting that next evolution out of Kyler Murty
because let's face it, the injury is amounted and piled
up in this latest one of foot injury that still
keeps him out. Little chitcknery with the injury report as
they work through the week.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
He's good, he's good.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Well, maybe he's not, and then well he's not gonna start,
but he may be available. We'll see, Like you might
as well find them the hundred grand that you did
the Ravens because that was a joke too. But all
of this to say, is he gonna be He's not
gonna get any better the way you've utilized him, Right,
He's got to evolve as a player, because that thing
(11:35):
that made him special, that turbo speed, whether he was
Sonic the Hedgehog or whatever fat wiley coyote or whatever
fast animated character you want to ascribe to him, that's
not gonna be part of his game here in short order,
coming through all of the lower body injuries that he's had,
and particularly a foot injury, you think for the second
half of the season he's gonna be able to scramble
(11:56):
the same way. There's no chance, right, that's already gone.
Forget about the other side of it, you know, in
terms of the depth of passing. We talk about when
Tuas said the quiet part out loud of not being
able to see Jalen Waddle. Well, that's been the what
all of us out here in the world have watched
with Kyler Murray on throws he doesn't make in red
(12:16):
zone and short yardage situations. So yeah, it would probably
be best to go find a QB guru to take
him to that next level and for Arizona to lean
in on what they've got with Sweat and his defense
LEAs Campbell, who's one hundred and forty eight years old,
and whatever else this offense is. Because you got McBride,
you got Harrison Junior, you got two key pieces to
(12:38):
what your next iteration is.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Wait, he's been in the league since twenty nineteen. His
first three years you thought, wait, he's gonna be something special.
His first three years were good, all kind of the same,
but they were good and then but he really hasn't
been at that level. You're going back to twenty twenty one. Man,
is not twenty twenty three. You're going back four plus
years to the last time he was a good quarterback
(13:01):
when he was young and ascending at twenty four. Now, Okay,
he's been around, he's twenty eight. He's not been that guy.
He's had injury issues, he's had trouble stay and when
he's played, he's been just Okay. I really don't know
how you consider and say, all right, we're gonna continue
to build behind Kyler Murray. Just get out from under
his money and start over off and start over offensive.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Well, I just look at it from the perspective, Yeah,
get away from the money. You gotta figure that out.
It's funny money that he got that second deal. But
he's played seventeen games once. That was last year.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
It's the only clo right, yeah, right, But there were
parts of games where he had to leave and didn't
roll through twenty one and eleven.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Okay, that's fine. Nearly four thousand passing yards, it's great.
Seven point one in attempt is an awful But is
it transcendent?
Speaker 1 (13:50):
No? And now we're back on the shelf once again.
Kyler Murray should be another by tomorrow. But hey, Tua,
Kyler Murray should find new teams. You know, Justin Frosburg's
back at work tonight. When you hear that song, we
gots I promise you we have big stuff on the
World Series you have not heard in the last forty

(16:43):
Want to bet on Twitter at Jason Lockin for it
is Jason locking for what's happening?
Speaker 5 (16:48):
Man?
Speaker 1 (16:49):
How are you?
Speaker 5 (16:50):
What's going on? Gentlemen? Just from one sweat to another,
one sweat to another? What we do at? Want to
bet what we do?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
So you're saying your sweat, so you bet something? You
had a prop bet with Josh sweat tonight. Is that
what you're saying?
Speaker 5 (17:02):
No, I always ended up sweating a Landry Chemt absolute
garbage time three with like twenty seconds left to get
the NIXT to London nineteen points even though they sort
of had one hundred and thirty nine points against the Wizards.
And now we need a little finally want to drink it.
But now we need a little something else side of
Jacoby Bissett. And it'll be a uh an Arizona to
(17:23):
not have a horrible collapse here and will be a
it would be a very very very fruitful.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Night, all right, well, well, what do you make so far?
Here's the Cowboys who are completely throwing up on themselves
tonight at home, the day before the deadline, where you
want to show yes, make a trade, make us better,
and this is.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
What we gets what they always do. This is why
I mean again, game ain't over. But I really like
the Arizona money line tonight because this is when this
is when Arizona, especially without Kyler Murray, shows you, hey,
we're not total garbage, like that's in their DNA. And
this is when Dallas shows you know, we are.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Total garbage, like this isn't Jets, this isn't the Bengals defense,
Like we're playing a real defense and we've got no
defense and we're lucky or sorry, we're unlucky.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
Kyler Murray's not playing and the better quarterback is and
they're getting embarrassed. But this is completely on brand to
them as well. You know, the idea that they're a
pass rusher away is it's farcical in so many levels,
beginning with the fact that they traded the best pass
rush in the league for the season starting you know,
or top to a top three this year. I mean,
(18:33):
you want to say Garrett's better than MLKA, Like, you're
not gonna tell me Watts better than him this year,
like Hutchinson had this slow start. I mean, he's looking
really good lately, but he was still coming off an
injury at the time Jerry traded Parsons. So no, they're
a joke. And look but Jerry one, he's got buffoon's
in the box with them, you know who will blow
viate and say whatever ridiculous does he wants. There are
(18:57):
shots of him instead of shots of his sideline where
Heeam is getting embarrassed. He's created headlines over a fake
news and a trade that's not saving any damn season.
This season was over before it started, So is there
a trade?
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Ja?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Like why would he say we've made a trade and
yet we will we don't know anything about it, Like
like this unless he's saying we made a trade and
he's talking about Michael Parsons a couple of months ago,
Like why would he say that.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
I guess he's got something globally agreed to, you know,
a gentleman's and maybe he's got a couple other things
and he wants to announce them all at once. I mean,
come on, why would you pick a fight with Diggs
before the season started. Why would you pick a fight
with Parsons before the season started? Like why is he
always putting his foot in his mouth? Like the bottom
line is, though it's you're him. He created a whole
(19:43):
subplot to this show that in the show being a
football game that for him is really just reality televisions.
So even if they crept their past tonight, which during
the process of doing, he's created this secondary plot that's
got you know, everybody playing mystery sleuth and ting to
figure it out. As that's going to like as if
even if that happens, it's going to change the end
(20:07):
result of this reality show, which is the Cowboys don't
go to the playoffs. The Cowboys are lesser than the
Cowboys from a competitive standpoint, are an.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Answer thought absolutely true.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
As we look at the slate from this weekend, some
oddities that popped up. I mean, Pittsburgh had a defense
for a day. I guess challenge everybody's.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
Well, you know it's still they still gave up. I mean,
the family are four hundred yards now. Look, just turnovers
is great and anytime you're a part of that, you
get it. You know, you get it a gold star.
But I mean the pup return was ridiculous. A couple
of the Jones interceptions were ridiculous. The watch that step
(20:54):
at the fifty online early in the game was huge
and changed the momentum of the game, and hats off
for that. But do you know what PITTSBURGHS two has had?
Like two hundred and twenty seven yards of total offense? Yes, sir,
you know they averaged three point seven yards per play
at home with the season on the line. How do
you how do you get three point seven yards per
play in the NFL in the year you know, twenty
(21:16):
twenty five, when every rule is gone, you know, to
help the offense. So, I mean, I'm not going to
sit and tell you that was a tour to four.
How do you get five sax and six takeaways at
home and still they fall a one score game? How's
that happened? How's that possible?
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Jason Locking for our guest Jason Smith Mike Harmon live
from the Fox Sports Radio studios. All right, now, before
we get to the trade deadline coming your way, uh,
Commander's head coach Dan Quinn, Hey, you know fell on
the sword today and said my fault. I should have
taken Jaydon Daniels out of the game late that ended
with him dislocating his left elbow. And you know, I'm
glad he said it, but you know when when he
(21:55):
says that's on me, I just got away from me.
I look and I go jay from three thousand miles
when it's a thirty eight to seven game in the
fourth quarter. Yeah, and you have a running quarterback to
like sing it out there to make plays like it's
not He doesn't take a genius to go Okay, it's
not happening for us. Let's make sure it keep my
quarterback healthy.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Now here's the other part of the two. He just
returned from this second injury absence of the year. So
like he just came back from an injury that knocked
him out of the Dallas game, and in the Dallas game,
he had just been back for about a game and
a half from a previous injury. No, it's negligence, like
(22:32):
when you reach the point in time when you start
punting rather than going for it down. However many scores
that is in the second half, whenever you reach that point,
back calculus, whether for some teams it'll be three scores
by a certain point or four scores by a certain point.
When you get there and you start doing that, then
(22:53):
it's time to pull everybody you can pull off that
field who you think is an absolute Blouet tip difference
on either side of the ball, Like and I look
the real question here for me ultimately, and I don't
think it correlates directly it is, but it still makes
no sense why the practice squad players not available? Why
(23:13):
are there not sixty five guys so it makes you
easier to get not to the quarterback off the field,
but more guys off the field. I don't understand the
idea of how everybody's under the same salary cap and
everybody has the same number of players available to be up,
whether that's sixty five or whatever. But why are there
(23:35):
game day in actives? But what point is that serving anymore?
And then you've got a whole practice squad which you
keep expanding on top of the game day and active
all who are being paid to watch that game some
varying degree of scale, to watch that game instead of
playing it.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I don't understand that, Jase, take me back there in Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Are people starting to believe in the greatest roster ever
assembled the Dolphins.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Yeah, I don't know about that. I mean they're still
the D line is a joke, Like that's not a
D line that's gonna win in the playoffs or probably
come all that close to winning in the playoffs. Uh.
You know, they added a pass rusher today from Tennessee.
You know, he's better than thirty six year old cal Vanoy,
and he's better than anything else they have. I'm not
(24:26):
sure he's better than a Dulpheolway, who's just straight away
to get a safe right, like they've always got full
sacks with chargers. So yeah, I don't think uh, I
don't think they're gonna win the trade deadline. They're not
gonna pay the kind of prices that other people are
gonna pay for two players, you know who could really
(24:49):
move the needle. They're gonna add their They've got to
add a depthy tackle. They could probably use a depth
offensive lineman too. But uh yeah, I think it's it's
a it's a poor defense that will be exposed. They
might be exposed by J. J. McCarthy this week. Like
you know, going on the road is a little different
and this isn't gonna be toua and you know McDaniel
(25:10):
trying to get fired and too it can't throw the
ball thirty yards downfield. So we'll see. You know, everybody
told me that the Steelers couldn't beat the Colts and
that the Ravens. You know, we're going to just be
They're gonna for three weeks from being first place in
the division.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
We'll say all right now, speaking of moving forward, we
talked about the deadline. We've heard the names out there.
Breese Hall is a popular name, Trey Hendrickson, all popular names.
What are you hearing? What do you think? Give me
a couple of things. Hey, I can see this happening tomorrow.
I heard this might happen. What do you got?
Speaker 5 (25:43):
But Dolphins are far from done. I mean, Dolphins are
going to make at least a couple more trades. And
I think Chubble's gone as well. I think Jael Alano
absolutely could be gone. If they could find a way
to eat enough of Fitzpatrick's salary that became palatable to somebody,
that'll happen, Yeah, I mean the Bengals. I don't think
(26:04):
it's just Hendrickson and I've been reporting for a while
it's going to be traded. You know, Logan Wilson is
calling Taylor BRIT's gone. I think they'll trade an offensive
lineman if there's somebody there who you like, Uh, you know,
the Raiders, what are we doing here? I mean they
key basking for like you know, they're telling everybody we're
out trading may or the other trade end. They're telling everybody.
(26:29):
You know, the price for Jakobe Myers has been ridiculous,
like trying to get the equivalent and of high three
or a low two. That's not going to happen. But
I think he's going to be gone. You know, Kansas
City is very Kansas City in Buffalo or I know
Buffalo's passed for us went off yesterday. But they're looking
for defensive linemen and uh, you know, I suspect they
(26:51):
find I suspect they each find one.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
So the last one because you know this is the
name and for Ostburg wants to keep asking me because
maybe it could happen for the Chargers. Do you see
Breese Hall getting Delta?
Speaker 5 (27:04):
No? Sure, yes, yes, I think Brees Hall. I mean
they've been asking for one for their pass rushers, and
I think the Hendrickson trade will be pretty talent because
I you know, if they get a two and something else,
which is I think what they're going to get till
that two is going to be pretty low. Then you
know the Jets trying to get a one for Johnson,
(27:25):
I think that'll crystallize for even that buffoon Woody Johnson said, Hey,
that's not happening. Uh So I think they could fall
on line and trade one of their edge defenders. But
you know, as a few hours ago before I went
to the Maryland basketball game, from what I was being told,
they were still asking for a ridiculous return.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
He's on Twitter at Jason lock and for that is
at Jason lock and for a Wanna bet Odyssey one
oh five seven the fan in Baltimore, Washington Post Jay
as always appreciate it. Man, Thanks enjoying the deadline.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
We'll talk to you next week, good.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Man, bring it home. I gotta be honest, I am
really surprised, and I fully expect an active deadline tomorrow.
I am really surprised we didn't get at least a
greasing couple of trades, like a couple of trades that
Greece's kids, that start things for tomorrow. Like we didn't say, hey,
we need this, let's make sure we get it tomorrow. Right,
(28:23):
the Bills would say, hey, we need a wide receiver,
even though it did. You know what, we need something here.
The Chiefs, Hey we need a running back. You know what.
The Jets want a third for Breese Hall. Let's go
make that move, right, Let's do it before we have
to worry about that, Like what are we doing? Like,
are we really gonna say, oh, hey, we'd love to
give up a fourth for Brisaw Brisall might be able
to get you to the super Bowl. Okay, we'll give
a third round pick for Breesal. Like, I'm really surprised
(28:45):
it wasn't one or two of those trade today by
team saying, you know what, we need to be bold.
We want to go get this guy. Let's go get
this guy.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
I mean, we've seen a bunch of trades. Maybe not
the marquee names is Jason alluded to. I mean you're
seeing little moves here and there, And obviously maybe the
Ravens would like mister away back after his four sex
and terrorizing imposing quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
What are you gonna do? You win some, you lose them.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
But all that to say you know, it's the waiting
game of who's most desperate, maybe waiting for the last
throws of this week nine to finish. Right, the Cowboys,
maybe they've got some things on contingency, Well, we'll do
this if we win or we don't if we lose.
I mean those kinds of things for them specifically. But yeah,
(29:32):
from Miami, you just fired your GM who's pulling the
trigger on the next seven or eight deals out there
now as you was able to fire Brian Kelly and
they didn't even have a full time guy running the school.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
No, it's there's a lot going on. Chancellor, that's just day.
You got a chancellor, then you got the governor who gets.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
To pick the board who say that in the house
that Jack built. All all that to say, you've got
a bunch of these squad odds that I think you're
trying to assess where the marketplace needs to be at
these specific positions for the Jets you're holding out. You
got Isaiah Davis. Just just let Breise Hall go for
Jacoby Myers. The guy's been wearing a sign that says
(30:14):
trade me instead he is on the back of it.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
You're talking about a guy who has not been Hey,
I want to step up and show other teams what
they're getting. He has been keep running him out on
the field. He has been just a guy for like
a month and a half. I mean, yeah, hey, you
want to get dealt okay, show teams that that you're talented.
It's like na non alligator go after the like, yeah,
come on, exit out about a Fresco exit swollen down
(30:37):
the Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmon.
Well more in the deadline coming up in a bit,
but right now, time to find out what's trending in
the wide world of sports. And Martin Weiss, who has
the latest on the game that's got all our attention
right now. The Knicks blowed victory over the Wizards.
Speaker 6 (30:50):
No boy, listen Eastern Conference matchups in November automatically top
of the building.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
You are existly I know, I know.
Speaker 6 (30:59):
I mean, you can't get interested in in a little
trade like Jalen Phillips to the Eagles from the Dolphins,
Jason Ormont Jamont Jones from from the Moving from the Titans.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
That can't Yeah no, wait, wait, yeah, noah, I worry
more about Hey, here are the guys we've heard about
what are the big teams making deals? What are the
Cowboys gonna do? What are I like? That's I'm like, okay,
let let's see something. Let mean, Eagles trading is just
a Monday night. Yeah, I mean, that's just what I mean.
How we does the Eagles are like Eagles are like
the Pirates. We're just gonna make trades all the day trading.
Come on, they think trades are half off on Tuesday. Yeah, yeah,
(31:32):
we made a trade. It's like they're like Fantasy own video.
I made a trade in like a week and a
half in Fantasy. I gotta make a deal. I gotta
do something. They got new guys on.
Speaker 6 (31:38):
There, well, the Dallas Cowboys. They gotta do something. And
quickly it's twenty four to four. It's twenty four to ten.
I'm sorry, with just under six minutes left in the
third quarter. Jacoby Brissette starting quarterback. Now, it was noted
that Jacoby Brissette was going to start earlier this week.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
That's not news. It is news.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
Though.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
Kyler Murray was listed as questionable up until about the
time the game time, active and inactive list came out
About an hour before kick the reports up until that
point where he was questionable could have a role in
the offense at kick As soon as the list came
out he was inactive. That interesting, like Mike Harmon alluded
to earlier, So something similar with Lamar Jackson last week
(32:17):
or a few weeks ago. We'll see how that plays
out for the Cardinals going forward. But right now, as
they're in the fourth quarter here, Jacoby Wes said. With
nineteen for twenty eight two forty three through the year
and two touchdowns, one of those passing touchdowns is to
Marvin Arison Junior, who's got seven catches ninety six yards
and a touchdown reception. Dak Prescott fifteen for twenty eight
(32:37):
one seventy eight through the air. Dallas' only touchdown today
came on a block punt return, so good for them
on that one offense has been leaving must to be desired,
including Brandon All you're missing a sixty eight yard field
goal as they have expired. Jaydon Daniel Sofferty dissocated elbow
against the Seahawks. He's out in definitely. Marshawn Lattimore Tori's
acl the Commanders losing more than just the game on
(33:00):
Sunday Night, Chargers standout left tackle Joe Alt He's going
to be out for the rest of the year with
a left tackle I mean a left ankle injury. Against
the Titans. The Packers tight Antucker Craft, he tore his ACL.
He's out for the year.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
CJ.
Speaker 6 (33:12):
Stroud remains in concussion protocol as he took that shot
taking the slide yesterday. Two games in action right now
in the NBA, the Nuggets lead the Kings ninety four
to eighty three with three minutes left in the third quarter.
Jokich with a twenty four point ten assist double double.
Russell Westbrook leading the Kings with twenty points, and then
(33:32):
the Lakers and early in the second quarter of the
Lakers and the Trailbladgers Portland with a thirty five to
twenty seven lead. Earlier tonight we saw the Timberwolves.

nine Minnesota the Victoria's the Pacers. We're in the Eastern Conference,
the Eastern Conference Finals representative last year won the Eastern Conference,

Bucks beat them tonight one seventeen to one fifteen, and
of course we were all eyes were locked in Karl
(34:05):
Anthony Towns thirty three points, thirteen rebounds, one nineteen to
one two.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
The next beat the Wizards undefeated at home. Jason Smith, Hey,
we'll get they're gonna cancel all the road games. The
NBA is gonna they know what to do the next
play every game at home. That's how it's gonna work.
That's the best way to go.

be allowed to shut the stadium.

seven to seventeen, Cardinals with the lead and the football
uh facing the Cowboys here with about ten minutes left
to go, Trey McBride just catches a first down pass
on second and nineteen that gives the Cardinals a first
(35:58):
down near midfield of More on this coming up, but look,
today was parade day for the Dodgers. They win the
World Series eleven innings, a game, seven thriller, twenty six
million people watching this game. One of the greatest World
Series games you'll ever see. And this is a series
now that had two of the greatest games you'll ever see. Yeah,
a half the country of Canada, you know, But couple
(36:19):
of things that you haven't heard in the last forty
eight hours. Okay, because I want to be honest, here
go back. We'll start in the eleventh inning of this game,
which results in the Dodgers double play that won it.
I really should never have to talk again about why
the bunt is something that teams should just eradicate from
their offensive strategy. How many times do I have to
(36:40):
say the bunt is a is a relic of a
bygone era, and it doesn't work nearly as much as
you think it does. The idea of a bunt and
moving a guy over for a run always sounds greater,
but doesn't really work nearly as much as you think
it does. How many times in this postseason we talked
about a bunt where a teams try to execute it
(37:02):
where it's gone so awful for them. Sure it hasn't worked,
they don't get a run, and they wind up losing
a game or a series.
Speaker 5 (37:09):
Right.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
The Blue Jays get a leadoff double from Vlad Junior
to start the bottom of the eleventh after Will Smith's
home run took all the air out of the Rogers
center right. But here's Vlad Junior, who, in another lifetime,
another era, another world, would be the World Series MVP.
He doubles to lead off the inning. He is standing
on second base like a bleeping king. Okay, follow me, Nope,
we're gonna have Isaiah kind of filife a sacrifice bunt,
(37:35):
and we're gonna give the Dodgers and out. Why are
you doing that? You give the Dodgers an out right?
Speaker 5 (37:40):
You have?
Speaker 1 (37:41):
You have the tying run at third. Okay, that's great,
but Vlad Junior is not that fast, and you really
need to make sure you're hitting a fly ball off
of Yamamoto. You gotta make sure you're doing that. What's
it tough to do off of Yamamoto? Hit that fly ball? Why?
Because of his cutter, his off speed. I don't understand
the strategy behind bunting there. You have a leadoff runner
(38:03):
at second base and you're saying, we're, okay, trying to
play for this one run to tie this game. And
what happens You wind up putting another runner on get
a game ending double play. It's over two chances from
third or three chants from second base and don't you
want a beginning at that point? Aren't you thinking bigger?
If you're the Blue Jays. Hey, lead off batter were
a double. We're tying this game. Now we're thinking about
(38:24):
winning it. Vlad Junior coming home. This is a fade
a complete Now the Dodgers are feeling way. Do we
need to keep Yamamoto out there? What do we just
give a leadoff double. No, we're gonna bunt and we're
gonna give the Dodgers an out, and we're gonna give
them a chance to get their feet under them again.
We're gonna give Yamoto a chance to who is pitching
on twenty one hours rest. We're gonna give them a
chance to get to relax after giving up that double.
(38:47):
And now we're gonna put everything on the next batter.
And I really I fail to understand the bunch strategy. Yes,
it used to work in Major League Baseball when guys
could pull off bunts and teams could get guys. But
it's not that era anymore. And I mean it, it's
not that the bunt never works. We've seen once or
twice this postseason, I've seen it work out, But how
many times have we seen it not work out in
(39:08):
high leverage, high pressure playoff situations where bunchs have resulted
in teams going home. Our season's over because we couldn't
execute a bunt, right. We've seen that so many times,
and yet here's another example where hey, we actually got
the bunt down. We did the play we wanted, did
it work out? Did it work out? It's not just
about that play. It's about will this bunt result in
(39:29):
a run? And and and and teams forget that. It's
not about getting the bunt like. It's not just hey,
if we execute this bunt, a run hits the scoreboard. No,
you have to number one execute it, which you've seen
teams have trouble doing, and they pop up or get
out and all of a sudden that inning's over. Or
hey we at the run of the third base. Oh no,
we still got to get him in. They didn't get
him in. Bunting is such a bad proposition. Now again,
(39:51):
I always go back when Billy Bean and Brad Pitton Moneyball,
when he says, don't be a hero, just pick up
the ball and throw out the first base. Just get
just get the out. If they're giving us an out,
take the Sometimes the Dodgers can run the wheel play,
but it's it's such a bad bargain now, But yet
teams still want a bunch.
Speaker 5 (40:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
Gusually you get this need the flair for the dramatic
and spectacular. In this particular case, Uh, you're thinking you're
good enough at contact that you're going to get the
fly ball. To your point, not a not a flyball pitcher.
It's about a fifty to fifty proposition on bad. That
ball's bad and in play against Yamamoto, are you hoping
(40:26):
maybe that.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
The splitter gets waight? That's it's Will Smith behind the plate.
I mean, not get away from a reason. He's catching
every game. He's eighteen innings. They're not bringing anybody else.
Those legs are gonna need to be replaced.
Speaker 5 (40:39):
Steve Jaker is.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Not walking through that ball catching the eighteen. That is
damn right.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
So that the trust is there any Yamamoto? Uh, And
he's gonna get the ground ball and you're gonna have
a play at the plate. Is that what you want
with Vlad Guerrero Junior on third base? No, it's a
it's a faulty proposition. Watched it as it happened, and
and did one of those disgusted waves at the television.
Obviously for all my Dodger brethren, here we broadcast out
(41:05):
of Los Angeles excitement and just chaos. The fact that
Paz and Nikki Rojas, oh and Yamamoto being a throwback
to guys from the seventies.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
What's he doing? He's playing long toss? Nobody does that?
Speaker 2 (41:18):
What's he bench?
Speaker 1 (41:18):
He doesn't lift weights like all of these things he
pitched yesterday doesn't matter. He wants the ball, Like, how
do you not look at it and say all right
and finish the job as soon as they give you
that out exit? How about a fresca exit? Swallowing down
The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmon

Let's give this part. You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Hello, welcome in side, Happy Monday, the Jason Smith Show
with my BIS friend Mike Harmon. Yeah, let's go. For
over forty years, tire Act's been helping customers find the
right tires for how, what, where they drive. Ship fast
and free backed by free Road, has protection with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation. Tire Ac dot Com
(00:50):
is the way tire buying should be. Well, here we
are Monday Night football, exactly how we thought it would go.
Accept not all early in the third quarter, it has
been all Arizona the Cardinals thanks to thirty two year
old Jacoby Brissett, who somehow is the same age as
(01:11):
Dak Prescott. I have a twenty four to seven lead
over the Cowboys. I want to say, the last time
the Cardinals beat the Cowboys on Monday Night Football was
in Jerry maguire. Oh, that's a good poll. Tidwell has
the big catch goes down, you know, Jerry look nice
and fun. Yeah, I think that's the last time they
(01:33):
won on Monday to beat the Cowboys Monday Night Football
with Jerry. But that's yeah, well, the heat was on TJ.
The heat was on Glenn Fry to give Rod Tidwell
that next new contract. But yes, it has been all Arizona.
The Cowboys only points tonight on a block punt recovered
(01:54):
in the end zone for a touchdown. It has been
an absolute debacle for the Cowboys so far now with
the offense being what they've shown so far this year. No,
they're not out of it. It is the Cardinals. But
this is an absolute debacle for the Cowboys so far.
A day ahead of the trade deadline, Jerry Jones intimated
that the Cowboys may have already made a trade. We'll
(02:15):
get to that in a couple of minutes. But here
they are needing a step to show, hey, we're really good.
We're a five hundred team. We're four to four and
one at the deadline. Let's go get somebody might not
win the division, but we're a playoff team, we're a
wildcard team. We could make some noise. We can make
improvements with a couple of tweaks defensively, and this is
the game you're putting out there. So far through the
(02:37):
first two and a half quarter, just a dismal effort overall.
We watched Jacoby Burssett marching them up and down the field.
Marvin Harrison Junior, who's been on the side of the
milk cartons for a lot of the season, a lot
of drops, a lot of inconsistency. They've been able to
go to him early and off in Eberflu's defense with
no no response. Obviously missing Trevon Diggs in the defensive backfields.
(03:00):
Still some questions as to what all went down there,
but he's not there. Bland his back and healthy doesn't
matter against that zone, they've been carving it up and
Brissett hasn't seen much pressure at all. Go figure, So
maybe there was a pass rusher. Maybe they should have
executed that trade and gotten the guy on the field tonight,
cause sure, well, well right now you got nothing. If
(03:22):
the trade was from Marvin Harrison junior. They probably should
have made it before tonight. Wow, that's yeah, but we
need him for one more game. Okay, one more game.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
But but the the funny thing was off the defensive right,
the special team's touchdown, the block punt. The They must
have gone to that shot of Jerry in the owner's
box for like five minutes, as if he'd run down
on the field and blocked it himself. All the glad
handing and backslapped.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Like yeah, here we comes, like no, no, no, you
still need to actually that was the only stop you got.
And then Stephen A. Smith got up and left after
the Jake Ferguson fumble. That's all right, how about however,
it's time for me to leave when you I gotta
go take it easy, see you later. Yep, thanks for
stopping by, all right? Do you have a nice salmon
(04:08):
suit on?
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Look?
Speaker 5 (04:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I mean as TJ. Clearly, the Cowboys swimming upstream so
far tonight against the Cardinals like this is an absolute
embarrassment for the Cowboys so far, because this is even
the Cardinals team where you can say, hey, here they are.
They do this every year the Cardinals. They have a
little bit of a run or a couple of weeks
where they play out of their shoes and you think, Okay,
(04:33):
the Cardinals are starting to realize their potential. Right They've
been bad for so long now the car and they
do it every year, and they fool you. They fool
you every year. They think, oh, maybe this is it.
But this is a Cardinal team that look, Jacobe Prissett
is starting a quarterback. They don't have either their top
two running backs right Mary Demricado is leading the team
in rushing tonight. Right now, you know they have guys
(04:56):
on this team outside of Marvin Harrison Junior. Okay, Trey
mcbrod's on the top tight ends in the NFL. But still,
as you said, Marvin Harrison Junior hasn't been great so
far in his career. He's kind of been stopping go.
He hasn't flashed as much. But this is a Cowboys
offense that had kind of a down week against Denver
last week, which you kind of get, all right, Denver's
defense is really good. But this is your home on
(05:17):
Monday Night football and you're about to take a field
goal to bring you within two scores of the Cardinals
like that, this is an absolute embarrassment for the Cowboys
at a time, just when I think even I don't
want to say the most staunchest disbelievers, but even people
that are doubting the Cowboys would stop and say, well, offensively,
they're really good. And boy, I could see if they
(05:38):
add a couple of pieces on defense, maybe it gets better.
They can catch lightning about And then you watch this,
you go, oh, no, no, no, the cowboy there who
we thought they were, the cat they are who we
thought they were, defensively giving you everything you thought they
would be. And then so I mean that they've been deplorable.
On this last possession that ends in an Aubrey field
(06:00):
goal for the Cowboys to make it twenty four to ten.
Dak's got the tight end over the middle, too high,
too high. He's not eight feet tall. Just because you
were walking around your neighborhood during the Halloween season seeing
your ten foot skeletons and jack skeleton's all over the place.
That ain't how high your guy can go and get it,
so they end up having to settle for a field goal.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Defensively, you're looking at Arizona giving up twenty two a
game that's top twelve in the NFL, and they're getting
healthy on that side of the ball.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
To your point, they've always scared you. Normally it's an
early flash from Kyler Murray in company, and then about
mid season it falls apart. In this chase, he lose
Benson and Connor early. Here's a question I'm gonna ask you,
and this is for all of you out there, if
you know, you know, Marvin Harrison said that he didn't
really like the offense and was really disappointed in the
(06:48):
offense being run in Arizona, not Marvin Harrison, junior Marvin Harrison.
So do you think that there do you think there
was a concerted effort, given the history of Marvin Harrison
to get his son the ball today, I will say this,
anytime a wide receiver or a relative uh says they
want the football, you give it to them. Right. Anytime
(07:09):
that happens, you get them the football, good things happen.
I'm a firm believer at that that when a guy says,
or a guy's dad who happens to be a great
wireceiver says, get me the football, you get it to
them right, Because that always seems to work out.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
Right.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Guys asked for it, you get to them, it works out. Okay,
you just kept Marvin Harrison.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I'm gonna give you.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I'm gonna give you credit, you know. I mean it's
it's Marvin Harrison. But I'll give you the no, I'll
give you this hot take off the off the bat here, right,
because we'll get into this over the course of the
night tonight. Right, Jacoby Brissette's been okay tonight so far, Right,
he's he's been. We always expected Kobe while he's been
one of the best backup quarterbacks in the NFL going
(07:46):
on a decade. Right, you know, he's not someone that's
gonna come in and suddenly be the backup that leads
you to the promised Land or someone worthy of a
big contract, but someone who'll come in and play pretty well.
I know the deadline is tomorrow, so it's a good
time to have this conversation. No, obviously it's not going
to happen. But you know, we talked last week that boy,
if the Dolphins could, they should move to a tounuel
of II LOOA because it's just not working out and
(08:09):
both sides need a fresh start for Arizona. If they could,
I would trade Kyler Murray you've seen the best of
Kyler Murray. How much long you're gonna wait for Kyler Murray?
Oh no, eventually, Kyle, Kyler Murray's been in the league
a minute now. This is not year two or year
three you're looking for. Kyler Murray's been in the league
for a while.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
When you're getting into when you've passed the year five
and you're closing in, well, we're getting closer to the
ten year anniversary than the beginning of his career, you
get that, Okay, what he's done through a bunch of
different offenses, different styles, different inventions of the team, different
playmakers that he's had, and you're still a team that
(08:50):
has not cut through and you've been to the playoffs.
Once you've seen the best of Kyler Murray, are you
really suddenly going to this year catching in a bottle?
Kyler Murray's going to turn the start. He's not not
that he doesn't have value, because there's systems for everybody.
But what you've seen with Kyler Murray in Arizona, when
you've seen him this long and you're still a team
(09:12):
that is rebuilding, you know he's not the long term answer. Now,
could he go to another team and another more savvy
quarterbacks coach can get the best out of one thing.
We know there's a system for everyone, right, system for
Daniel Jones, system for Gino Smith, system for Sam Darnold.
Clearly there's a couple of systems. For Sam Darnold. The
Jets just didn't have either of them, but Baker Mayfield
(09:33):
system for him. But for Kyler Murray, it's you know, okay,
I think there's other teams in need of a quarterback
that can say, okay, twenty eight, twenty nine years old,
we can go in on Kyler Murray. I got I
know he's not a bigger quarterback, but I know how
to get him outside the pocket. I know what we
can do here. He's got a stronger arm than Tua. Yeah,
we can make it work with Kyler Murray and for
(09:53):
the Cardinals. Quite honestly, you should hit the reset button, right.
I mean, how many times, how many coaches have you
gone through, how many offensive systems, how many playmakers? And
Kyler Murray is still someone that Yeah, if you finish
close to five hundred, it's a success. Not that you're
blaming Kyler Murray, but this guy's getting paid a lot
of money where you've seen, You've seen what he can do,
(10:14):
and it hasn't gotten you any place, So okay, you
can do this with somebody else. And obviously Jacoby Brissett
comes in and the offense is functioning at a pretty
high rate. Now this is the Dallas Cowboys defense where you,
me and Frostburg could get on them. But you still
see it's not like Jacoby Brissette has come in to
play the last few weeks and the Cardinals offense looks
like Syracuse without Steve Vangeli. They can't even get five yards.
(10:36):
Like you've seen an offense that without playmakers is still
able to move the ball up and down the field.
If your best players being hurt and your most talented
players being question mark, still you've still been able to
move the football. So what are you paying him for?
Why are you going? Correct? He's obviously not someone that's
gonna sudden all right now we're taking off from too
Kyler Murray Again, he's been in the league too long
now for that to happen.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Well, I think the biggest thing is, as it's currently ructured,
you're not getting that next evolution out of Kyler Murty
because let's face it, the injury is amounted and piled
up in this latest one of foot injury that still
keeps him out. Little chitcknery with the injury report as
they work through the week.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
He's good, he's good.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Well, maybe he's not, and then well he's not gonna start,
but he may be available. We'll see, Like you might
as well find them the hundred grand that you did
the Ravens because that was a joke too. But all
of this to say, is he gonna be He's not
gonna get any better the way you've utilized him, Right,
He's got to evolve as a player, because that thing
(11:35):
that made him special, that turbo speed, whether he was
Sonic the Hedgehog or whatever fat wiley coyote or whatever
fast animated character you want to ascribe to him, that's
not gonna be part of his game here in short order,
coming through all of the lower body injuries that he's had,
and particularly a foot injury, you think for the second
half of the season he's gonna be able to scramble
(11:56):
the same way. There's no chance, right, that's already gone.
Forget about the other side of it, you know, in
terms of the depth of passing. We talk about when
Tuas said the quiet part out loud of not being
able to see Jalen Waddle. Well, that's been the what
all of us out here in the world have watched
with Kyler Murray on throws he doesn't make in red
(12:16):
zone and short yardage situations. So yeah, it would probably
be best to go find a QB guru to take
him to that next level and for Arizona to lean
in on what they've got with Sweat and his defense
LEAs Campbell, who's one hundred and forty eight years old,
and whatever else this offense is. Because you got McBride,
you got Harrison Junior, you got two key pieces to
(12:38):
what your next iteration is.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Wait, he's been in the league since twenty nineteen. His
first three years you thought, wait, he's gonna be something special.
His first three years were good, all kind of the same,
but they were good and then but he really hasn't
been at that level. You're going back to twenty twenty one. Man,
is not twenty twenty three. You're going back four plus
years to the last time he was a good quarterback
(13:01):
when he was young and ascending at twenty four. Now, Okay,
he's been around, he's twenty eight. He's not been that guy.
He's had injury issues, he's had trouble stay and when
he's played, he's been just Okay. I really don't know
how you consider and say, all right, we're gonna continue
to build behind Kyler Murray. Just get out from under
his money and start over off and start over offensive.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Well, I just look at it from the perspective, Yeah,
get away from the money. You gotta figure that out.
It's funny money that he got that second deal. But
he's played seventeen games once. That was last year.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
It's the only clo right, yeah, right, But there were
parts of games where he had to leave and didn't
roll through twenty one and eleven.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Okay, that's fine. Nearly four thousand passing yards, it's great.
Seven point one in attempt is an awful But is
it transcendent?
Speaker 1 (13:50):
No? And now we're back on the shelf once again.
Kyler Murray should be another by tomorrow. But hey, Tua,
Kyler Murray should find new teams. You know, Justin Frosburg's
back at work tonight. When you hear that song, we
gots I promise you we have big stuff on the
World Series you have not heard in the last forty

Odyssey Washington Post one oh five seven, the fan of Baltimore.
(16:43):
Want to bet on Twitter at Jason Lockin for it
is Jason locking for what's happening?
Speaker 5 (16:48):
Man?
Speaker 1 (16:49):
How are you?
Speaker 5 (16:50):
What's going on? Gentlemen? Just from one sweat to another,
one sweat to another? What we do at? Want to
bet what we do?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
So you're saying your sweat, so you bet something? You
had a prop bet with Josh sweat tonight. Is that
what you're saying?
Speaker 5 (17:02):
No, I always ended up sweating a Landry Chemt absolute
garbage time three with like twenty seconds left to get
the NIXT to London nineteen points even though they sort
of had one hundred and thirty nine points against the Wizards.
And now we need a little finally want to drink it.
But now we need a little something else side of
Jacoby Bissett. And it'll be a uh an Arizona to
(17:23):
not have a horrible collapse here and will be a
it would be a very very very fruitful.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Night, all right, well, well, what do you make so far?
Here's the Cowboys who are completely throwing up on themselves
tonight at home, the day before the deadline, where you
want to show yes, make a trade, make us better,
and this is.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
What we gets what they always do. This is why
I mean again, game ain't over. But I really like
the Arizona money line tonight because this is when this
is when Arizona, especially without Kyler Murray, shows you, hey,
we're not total garbage, like that's in their DNA. And
this is when Dallas shows you know, we are.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
Total garbage, like this isn't Jets, this isn't the Bengals defense,
Like we're playing a real defense and we've got no
defense and we're lucky or sorry, we're unlucky.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
Kyler Murray's not playing and the better quarterback is and
they're getting embarrassed. But this is completely on brand to
them as well. You know, the idea that they're a
pass rusher away is it's farcical in so many levels,
beginning with the fact that they traded the best pass
rush in the league for the season starting you know,
or top to a top three this year. I mean,
(18:33):
you want to say Garrett's better than MLKA, Like, you're
not gonna tell me Watts better than him this year,
like Hutchinson had this slow start. I mean, he's looking
really good lately, but he was still coming off an
injury at the time Jerry traded Parsons. So no, they're
a joke. And look but Jerry one, he's got buffoon's
in the box with them, you know who will blow
viate and say whatever ridiculous does he wants. There are
(18:57):
shots of him instead of shots of his sideline where
Heeam is getting embarrassed. He's created headlines over a fake
news and a trade that's not saving any damn season.
This season was over before it started, So is there
a trade?
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Ja?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Like why would he say we've made a trade and
yet we will we don't know anything about it, Like
like this unless he's saying we made a trade and
he's talking about Michael Parsons a couple of months ago,
Like why would he say that.
Speaker 5 (19:22):
I guess he's got something globally agreed to, you know,
a gentleman's and maybe he's got a couple other things
and he wants to announce them all at once. I mean,
come on, why would you pick a fight with Diggs
before the season started. Why would you pick a fight
with Parsons before the season started? Like why is he
always putting his foot in his mouth? Like the bottom
line is, though it's you're him. He created a whole
(19:43):
subplot to this show that in the show being a
football game that for him is really just reality televisions.
So even if they crept their past tonight, which during
the process of doing, he's created this secondary plot that's
got you know, everybody playing mystery sleuth and ting to
figure it out. As that's going to like as if
even if that happens, it's going to change the end
(20:07):
result of this reality show, which is the Cowboys don't
go to the playoffs. The Cowboys are lesser than the
Cowboys from a competitive standpoint, are an.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Answer thought absolutely true.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
As we look at the slate from this weekend, some
oddities that popped up. I mean, Pittsburgh had a defense
for a day. I guess challenge everybody's.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
Well, you know it's still they still gave up. I mean,
the family are four hundred yards now. Look, just turnovers
is great and anytime you're a part of that, you
get it. You know, you get it a gold star.
But I mean the pup return was ridiculous. A couple
of the Jones interceptions were ridiculous. The watch that step
(20:54):
at the fifty online early in the game was huge
and changed the momentum of the game, and hats off
for that. But do you know what PITTSBURGHS two has had?
Like two hundred and twenty seven yards of total offense? Yes, sir,
you know they averaged three point seven yards per play
at home with the season on the line. How do
you how do you get three point seven yards per
play in the NFL in the year you know, twenty
(21:16):
twenty five, when every rule is gone, you know, to
help the offense. So, I mean, I'm not going to
sit and tell you that was a tour to four.
How do you get five sax and six takeaways at
home and still they fall a one score game? How's
that happened? How's that possible?
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Jason Locking for our guest Jason Smith Mike Harmon live
from the Fox Sports Radio studios. All right, now, before
we get to the trade deadline coming your way, uh,
Commander's head coach Dan Quinn, Hey, you know fell on
the sword today and said my fault. I should have
taken Jaydon Daniels out of the game late that ended
with him dislocating his left elbow. And you know, I'm
glad he said it, but you know when when he
(21:55):
says that's on me, I just got away from me.
I look and I go jay from three thousand miles
when it's a thirty eight to seven game in the
fourth quarter. Yeah, and you have a running quarterback to
like sing it out there to make plays like it's
not He doesn't take a genius to go Okay, it's
not happening for us. Let's make sure it keep my
quarterback healthy.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Now here's the other part of the two. He just
returned from this second injury absence of the year. So
like he just came back from an injury that knocked
him out of the Dallas game, and in the Dallas game,
he had just been back for about a game and
a half from a previous injury. No, it's negligence, like
(22:32):
when you reach the point in time when you start
punting rather than going for it down. However many scores
that is in the second half, whenever you reach that point,
back calculus, whether for some teams it'll be three scores
by a certain point or four scores by a certain point.
When you get there and you start doing that, then
(22:53):
it's time to pull everybody you can pull off that
field who you think is an absolute Blouet tip difference
on either side of the ball, Like and I look
the real question here for me ultimately, and I don't
think it correlates directly it is, but it still makes
no sense why the practice squad players not available? Why
(23:13):
are there not sixty five guys so it makes you
easier to get not to the quarterback off the field,
but more guys off the field. I don't understand the
idea of how everybody's under the same salary cap and
everybody has the same number of players available to be up,
whether that's sixty five or whatever. But why are there
(23:35):
game day in actives? But what point is that serving anymore?
And then you've got a whole practice squad which you
keep expanding on top of the game day and active
all who are being paid to watch that game some
varying degree of scale, to watch that game instead of
playing it.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I don't understand that, Jase, take me back there in Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Are people starting to believe in the greatest roster ever
assembled the Dolphins.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Yeah, I don't know about that. I mean they're still
the D line is a joke, Like that's not a
D line that's gonna win in the playoffs or probably
come all that close to winning in the playoffs. Uh.
You know, they added a pass rusher today from Tennessee.
You know, he's better than thirty six year old cal Vanoy,
and he's better than anything else they have. I'm not
(24:26):
sure he's better than a Dulpheolway, who's just straight away
to get a safe right, like they've always got full
sacks with chargers. So yeah, I don't think uh, I
don't think they're gonna win the trade deadline. They're not
gonna pay the kind of prices that other people are
gonna pay for two players, you know who could really
(24:49):
move the needle. They're gonna add their They've got to
add a depthy tackle. They could probably use a depth
offensive lineman too. But uh yeah, I think it's it's
a it's a poor defense that will be exposed. They
might be exposed by J. J. McCarthy this week. Like
you know, going on the road is a little different
and this isn't gonna be toua and you know McDaniel
(25:10):
trying to get fired and too it can't throw the
ball thirty yards downfield. So we'll see. You know, everybody
told me that the Steelers couldn't beat the Colts and
that the Ravens. You know, we're going to just be
They're gonna for three weeks from being first place in
the division.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
We'll say all right now, speaking of moving forward, we
talked about the deadline. We've heard the names out there.
Breese Hall is a popular name, Trey Hendrickson, all popular names.
What are you hearing? What do you think? Give me
a couple of things. Hey, I can see this happening tomorrow.
I heard this might happen. What do you got?
Speaker 5 (25:43):
But Dolphins are far from done. I mean, Dolphins are
going to make at least a couple more trades. And
I think Chubble's gone as well. I think Jael Alano
absolutely could be gone. If they could find a way
to eat enough of Fitzpatrick's salary that became palatable to somebody,
that'll happen, Yeah, I mean the Bengals. I don't think
(26:04):
it's just Hendrickson and I've been reporting for a while
it's going to be traded. You know, Logan Wilson is
calling Taylor BRIT's gone. I think they'll trade an offensive
lineman if there's somebody there who you like, Uh, you know,
the Raiders, what are we doing here? I mean they
key basking for like you know, they're telling everybody we're
out trading may or the other trade end. They're telling everybody.
(26:29):
You know, the price for Jakobe Myers has been ridiculous,
like trying to get the equivalent and of high three
or a low two. That's not going to happen. But
I think he's going to be gone. You know, Kansas
City is very Kansas City in Buffalo or I know
Buffalo's passed for us went off yesterday. But they're looking
for defensive linemen and uh, you know, I suspect they
(26:51):
find I suspect they each find one.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
So the last one because you know this is the
name and for Ostburg wants to keep asking me because
maybe it could happen for the Chargers. Do you see
Breese Hall getting Delta?
Speaker 5 (27:04):
No? Sure, yes, yes, I think Brees Hall. I mean
they've been asking for one for their pass rushers, and
I think the Hendrickson trade will be pretty talent because
I you know, if they get a two and something else,
which is I think what they're going to get till
that two is going to be pretty low. Then you
know the Jets trying to get a one for Johnson,
(27:25):
I think that'll crystallize for even that buffoon Woody Johnson said, Hey,
that's not happening. Uh So I think they could fall
on line and trade one of their edge defenders. But
you know, as a few hours ago before I went
to the Maryland basketball game, from what I was being told,
they were still asking for a ridiculous return.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
He's on Twitter at Jason lock and for that is
at Jason lock and for a Wanna bet Odyssey one
oh five seven the fan in Baltimore, Washington Post Jay
as always appreciate it. Man, Thanks enjoying the deadline.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
We'll talk to you next week, good.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Man, bring it home. I gotta be honest, I am
really surprised, and I fully expect an active deadline tomorrow.
I am really surprised we didn't get at least a
greasing couple of trades, like a couple of trades that
Greece's kids, that start things for tomorrow. Like we didn't say, hey,
we need this, let's make sure we get it tomorrow. Right,
(28:23):
the Bills would say, hey, we need a wide receiver,
even though it did. You know what, we need something here.
The Chiefs, Hey we need a running back. You know what.
The Jets want a third for Breese Hall. Let's go
make that move, right, Let's do it before we have
to worry about that, Like what are we doing? Like,
are we really gonna say, oh, hey, we'd love to
give up a fourth for Brisaw Brisall might be able
to get you to the super Bowl. Okay, we'll give
a third round pick for Breesal. Like, I'm really surprised
(28:45):
it wasn't one or two of those trade today by
team saying, you know what, we need to be bold.
We want to go get this guy. Let's go get
this guy.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
I mean, we've seen a bunch of trades. Maybe not
the marquee names is Jason alluded to. I mean you're
seeing little moves here and there, And obviously maybe the
Ravens would like mister away back after his four sex
and terrorizing imposing quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
What are you gonna do? You win some, you lose them.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
But all that to say you know, it's the waiting
game of who's most desperate, maybe waiting for the last
throws of this week nine to finish. Right, the Cowboys,
maybe they've got some things on contingency, Well, we'll do
this if we win or we don't if we lose.
I mean those kinds of things for them specifically. But yeah,
(29:32):
from Miami, you just fired your GM who's pulling the
trigger on the next seven or eight deals out there
now as you was able to fire Brian Kelly and
they didn't even have a full time guy running the school.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
No, it's there's a lot going on. Chancellor, that's just day.
You got a chancellor, then you got the governor who gets.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
To pick the board who say that in the house
that Jack built. All all that to say, you've got
a bunch of these squad odds that I think you're
trying to assess where the marketplace needs to be at
these specific positions for the Jets you're holding out. You
got Isaiah Davis. Just just let Breise Hall go for
Jacoby Myers. The guy's been wearing a sign that says
(30:14):
trade me instead he is on the back of it.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
You're talking about a guy who has not been Hey,
I want to step up and show other teams what
they're getting. He has been keep running him out on
the field. He has been just a guy for like
a month and a half. I mean, yeah, hey, you
want to get dealt okay, show teams that that you're talented.
It's like na non alligator go after the like, yeah,
come on, exit out about a Fresco exit swollen down
(30:37):
the Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmon.
Well more in the deadline coming up in a bit,
but right now, time to find out what's trending in
the wide world of sports. And Martin Weiss, who has
the latest on the game that's got all our attention
right now. The Knicks blowed victory over the Wizards.
Speaker 6 (30:50):
No boy, listen Eastern Conference matchups in November automatically top
of the building.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
You are existly I know, I know.
Speaker 6 (30:59):
I mean, you can't get interested in in a little
trade like Jalen Phillips to the Eagles from the Dolphins,
Jason Ormont Jamont Jones from from the Moving from the Titans.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
That can't Yeah no, wait, wait, yeah, noah, I worry
more about Hey, here are the guys we've heard about
what are the big teams making deals? What are the
Cowboys gonna do? What are I like? That's I'm like, okay,
let let's see something. Let mean, Eagles trading is just
a Monday night. Yeah, I mean, that's just what I mean.
How we does the Eagles are like Eagles are like
the Pirates. We're just gonna make trades all the day trading.
Come on, they think trades are half off on Tuesday. Yeah, yeah,
(31:32):
we made a trade. It's like they're like Fantasy own video.
I made a trade in like a week and a
half in Fantasy. I gotta make a deal. I gotta
do something. They got new guys on.
Speaker 6 (31:38):
There, well, the Dallas Cowboys. They gotta do something. And
quickly it's twenty four to four. It's twenty four to ten.
I'm sorry, with just under six minutes left in the
third quarter. Jacoby Brissette starting quarterback. Now, it was noted
that Jacoby Brissette was going to start earlier this week.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
That's not news. It is news.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
Though.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
Kyler Murray was listed as questionable up until about the
time the game time, active and inactive list came out
About an hour before kick the reports up until that
point where he was questionable could have a role in
the offense at kick As soon as the list came
out he was inactive. That interesting, like Mike Harmon alluded
to earlier, So something similar with Lamar Jackson last week
(32:17):
or a few weeks ago. We'll see how that plays
out for the Cardinals going forward. But right now, as
they're in the fourth quarter here, Jacoby Wes said. With
nineteen for twenty eight two forty three through the year
and two touchdowns, one of those passing touchdowns is to
Marvin Arison Junior, who's got seven catches ninety six yards
and a touchdown reception. Dak Prescott fifteen for twenty eight
(32:37):
one seventy eight through the air. Dallas' only touchdown today
came on a block punt return, so good for them
on that one offense has been leaving must to be desired,
including Brandon All you're missing a sixty eight yard field
goal as they have expired. Jaydon Daniel Sofferty dissocated elbow
against the Seahawks. He's out in definitely. Marshawn Lattimore Tori's
acl the Commanders losing more than just the game on
(33:00):
Sunday Night, Chargers standout left tackle Joe Alt He's going
to be out for the rest of the year with
a left tackle I mean a left ankle injury. Against
the Titans. The Packers tight Antucker Craft, he tore his ACL.

seven to seventeen, Cardinals with the lead and the football
uh facing the Cowboys here with about ten minutes left
to go, Trey McBride just catches a first down pass
on second and nineteen that gives the Cardinals a first
(35:58):
down near midfield of More on this coming up, but look,
today was parade day for the Dodgers. They win the
World Series eleven innings, a game, seven thriller, twenty six
million people watching this game. One of the greatest World
Series games you'll ever see. And this is a series
now that had two of the greatest games you'll ever see. Yeah,
a half the country of Canada, you know, But couple
(36:19):
of things that you haven't heard in the last forty
eight hours. Okay, because I want to be honest, here
go back. We'll start in the eleventh inning of this game,
which results in the Dodgers double play that won it.
I really should never have to talk again about why
the bunt is something that teams should just eradicate from
their offensive strategy. How many times do I have to
(36:40):
say the bunt is a is a relic of a
bygone era, and it doesn't work nearly as much as
you think it does. The idea of a bunt and
moving a guy over for a run always sounds greater,
but doesn't really work nearly as much as you think
it does. How many times in this postseason we talked
about a bunt where a teams try to execute it
(37:02):
where it's gone so awful for them. Sure it hasn't worked,
they don't get a run, and they wind up losing
a game or a series.
Speaker 5 (37:09):
Right.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
The Blue Jays get a leadoff double from Vlad Junior
to start the bottom of the eleventh after Will Smith's
home run took all the air out of the Rogers
center right. But here's Vlad Junior, who, in another lifetime,
another era, another world, would be the World Series MVP.
He doubles to lead off the inning. He is standing
on second base like a bleeping king. Okay, follow me, Nope,
we're gonna have Isaiah kind of filife a sacrifice bunt,
(37:35):
and we're gonna give the Dodgers and out. Why are
you doing that? You give the Dodgers an out right?
Speaker 5 (37:40):
You have?
Speaker 1 (37:41):
You have the tying run at third. Okay, that's great,
but Vlad Junior is not that fast, and you really
need to make sure you're hitting a fly ball off
of Yamamoto. You gotta make sure you're doing that. What's
it tough to do off of Yamamoto? Hit that fly ball? Why?
Because of his cutter, his off speed. I don't understand
the strategy behind bunting there. You have a leadoff runner
(38:03):
at second base and you're saying, we're, okay, trying to
play for this one run to tie this game. And
what happens You wind up putting another runner on get
a game ending double play. It's over two chances from
third or three chants from second base and don't you
want a beginning at that point? Aren't you thinking bigger?
If you're the Blue Jays. Hey, lead off batter were
a double. We're tying this game. Now we're thinking about
(38:24):
winning it. Vlad Junior coming home. This is a fade
a complete Now the Dodgers are feeling way. Do we
need to keep Yamamoto out there? What do we just
give a leadoff double. No, we're gonna bunt and we're
gonna give the Dodgers an out, and we're gonna give
them a chance to get their feet under them again.
We're gonna give Yamoto a chance to who is pitching
on twenty one hours rest. We're gonna give them a
chance to get to relax after giving up that double.
(38:47):
And now we're gonna put everything on the next batter.
And I really I fail to understand the bunch strategy. Yes,
it used to work in Major League Baseball when guys
could pull off bunts and teams could get guys. But
it's not that era anymore. And I mean it, it's
not that the bunt never works. We've seen once or
twice this postseason, I've seen it work out, But how
many times have we seen it not work out in
(39:08):
high leverage, high pressure playoff situations where bunchs have resulted
in teams going home. Our season's over because we couldn't
execute a bunt, right. We've seen that so many times,
and yet here's another example where hey, we actually got
the bunt down. We did the play we wanted, did
it work out? Did it work out? It's not just
about that play. It's about will this bunt result in
(39:29):
a run? And and and and teams forget that. It's
not about getting the bunt like. It's not just hey,
if we execute this bunt, a run hits the scoreboard. No,
you have to number one execute it, which you've seen
teams have trouble doing, and they pop up or get
out and all of a sudden that inning's over. Or
hey we at the run of the third base. Oh no,
we still got to get him in. They didn't get
him in. Bunting is such a bad proposition. Now again,
(39:51):
I always go back when Billy Bean and Brad Pitton Moneyball,
when he says, don't be a hero, just pick up
the ball and throw out the first base. Just get
just get the out. If they're giving us an out,
take the Sometimes the Dodgers can run the wheel play,
but it's it's such a bad bargain now, But yet
teams still want a bunch.
Speaker 5 (40:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:06):
Gusually you get this need the flair for the dramatic
and spectacular. In this particular case, Uh, you're thinking you're
good enough at contact that you're going to get the
fly ball. To your point, not a not a flyball pitcher.
It's about a fifty to fifty proposition on bad. That
ball's bad and in play against Yamamoto, are you hoping
(40:26):
maybe that.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
The splitter gets waight? That's it's Will Smith behind the plate.
I mean, not get away from a reason. He's catching
every game. He's eighteen innings. They're not bringing anybody else.
Those legs are gonna need to be replaced.
Speaker 5 (40:39):
Steve Jaker is.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Not walking through that ball catching the eighteen. That is
damn right.
Speaker 3 (40:43):
So that the trust is there any Yamamoto? Uh, And
he's gonna get the ground ball and you're gonna have
a play at the plate. Is that what you want
with Vlad Guerrero Junior on third base? No, it's a
it's a faulty proposition. Watched it as it happened, and
and did one of those disgusted waves at the television.
Obviously for all my Dodger brethren, here we broadcast out
(41:05):
of Los Angeles excitement and just chaos. The fact that
Paz and Nikki Rojas, oh and Yamamoto being a throwback
to guys from the seventies.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
What's he doing? He's playing long toss? Nobody does that?
Speaker 2 (41:18):
What's he bench?
Speaker 1 (41:18):
He doesn't lift weights like all of these things he
pitched yesterday doesn't matter. He wants the ball, Like, how
do you not look at it and say all right
and finish the job as soon as they give you
that out exit? How about a fresca exit? Swallowing down
The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmon
coming up next. More on the Cowboys Cardinals? Is it
getting closer in Big D Plus? You thought that was

something about the World Series? Wait, will he tell you

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
