Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hey, thanks for listening to the Cadino and Rich podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Be sure to catch us live every weekday from five
to seven Eastern to the four Pacific on Fox Sports Radio.
Find your local station for Comedo on Rich at Fox
Sports Radio dot com, or stream us live every day
on the iHeartRadio app by searching FSR. I'm telling you, man,
I feel like the NFL is drunk. That's my take

(00:24):
to start the show. The NFL is either high cartoony.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Home home on the range.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
You gotta be like a like a cartoon. Yeah, like
a cartoon. Hoboat a little with my laundry and a
stick exactly. I think the funniest comment was from one
of our listeners, Chris Benson. Chris Benson says, can you
imagine that Rich actually rolled out his extra TV this weekend?
You know how he brags about his extra TV so

(00:53):
that he could watch an extra game in full? He goes,
Rich really rolled out an extra TV just to watch
that miserable ending for his forty nine.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
That was the main thing. I put that on the
big one, the screen game of the week. I rolled
out an extra TV just to watch that game was
ultimately frustrating.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
I'm not like as a Niner, I'm not too like nervous,
but I'm more just like mad that they lost it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
No, it's not like a make or break post season's over.
That was just weak to me.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
It just reaked of a game you had in complete
control the whole time, the whole time, you know, when
you see those projected winner charts, standing literally the whole
time until the end. Yo, damn by, that's that Rich,
you know, who hasn't led at all anytime in any
game Miami.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
I don't think they've led in any game yet.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Yeah, Rich, your Niners were in control of that game
almost the whole time.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
And the one win that the Dolphins got was at
the buzzer against Jacksonville.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Right right. I was wondering how that's possible.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
That was like the fun stat But yeah, the forty
nine you know those charts where it shows projected winner
the forty nine ers, one looks like a mountain range.
All of a sudden, it's like the Grand Canyon, like
like down in the final second of the game. Terribly
embarrassing loss for the forty nine ers, because I would say, well,

(02:17):
not equally as embarrassing, but pretty weak. How the Falcons
lost as well. It's like, how do they not call
that on the Chiefs again? Even more blatant at the
end of that game.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
But lots of random games, yeah, lots of surprises. Like
Rich said, it seems like the NFL is drunk. I'll
let him explain. I think that.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
The forty nine ers, well, there's other games to start with,
but I'll start there because as bad as that was,
there were some good takeaways, and I thought the good
takeaways were that brock Purty played fantastic, might have been
one of his best games ever. Rock Purdy was unbelievable,
and he set that team up to win. I don't
care about the fact that there was no d McCaffrey kittle.

(03:01):
Brock Purty played like an NFL quarterback that should have
came away with a W. And that is what everyone
always questions, like, well, he just go out the weapons.
Rock pretty should have won that game. Not his fault.
Ronnie Bell stinks and should already be cut. Not his fault. No,
he made use of Jennings ay yuk like, he used
what he had and he used it well.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
He played well.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
He threw for two ninety two to three Tuddies it
wasn't on him starting to worry about a yuk. I
think I saw him on a milk carton that's missing.
Where is the guy that demanded this big money.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
He's still on the sideline fighting with the Rams. What
is going on? So he was pretty pissed off at
the end of that game.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
That was a game that, as a Niner shed I'm
not too worried about, because you know, you hope to
be at full strength down the stretch, but.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
You know, little little losses like that add up.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
I think the biggest surprise to me might be Danny
G's Raiders, because I thought they had something going for
a second, and hey, it's like I say every week
sometimes we played down to the competition. I was befuddled
and shocked, and I'm like, Andy Dalton, this might be
even easier for you guys.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, and Andy.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
Dalton look like the guy we saw at a Bengals
uniform a decade ago.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
You want to talk about inconsistent. In Week one, the
Raiders held Justin Herbert to one hundred and forty four yards,
and then yesterday Andy Dalton he looked like Andy Dalton
of twenty twelve twenty thirteen pass he was throwing dimes
all over the fields.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
Yeah, he was leading his receivers, receivers.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Open perfectly dropping it right.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Yeah, we can't say enough about how focused in he was.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
And you could say what you want about the Raiders.
He did look good though, Rich.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
No, he did.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
And that's a pretty good defense. I know Max Crosby
was banged up and not himself, but next guy up man.
The Raiders did not have any pass rushers having any
success yesterday, and and then on offense, Minshoot threw that
fifty four yard dime of his own and tied it
up seven to seven. I'm like, all right, it's gonna
be a little bit of a dog fight.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
That's fine.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
But what we saw with Andy Dalton, the team follows
their quarterback's personality, and Andy Dalton inspired the whole team.
They were Adam Archiletta on the broadcast said, when it
was Bryce Young, he was dejected at QB and the
whole team kind of was dejected.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
Aside from his three hundred and nineteen yards and three touchdowns.
Can I just compliment that sweet fade? He has the
sweetest ginger fade in all the land.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Got I got a probably one Ginger fad. It's the
number one Ginger fame.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
I've never seen the bolder with a better face, seriously, like,
I'm always impressed by it. So he was looking slick,
he was looking crispy. But you can say what you
want about the Raiders. He really did look good. Rich
I was like, wow, yeah, but I don't know. It
just shows you the NFL is drunk, Like I said,
just it's there's something like the fact that justin fields
is three and zero.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Russell Wilson's never gonna see the field no way.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Andy Dalton the only quarterback so far after three weeks
that has three hundred plus yards passing and three touchdowns
in a game. Only Andy Dalton, who saw that come.
NFL is drunk, the most yards by quarterback in one game.
Caleb Williams is in a losing effort, Like.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
What is going on?

Speaker 2 (06:07):
The Seahawks are three to zero, two games up on
the Niners. Can graduations? Dan Bayer? I mean, could could
it be coaching that just some good coaching adjustments? Maybe
Pete Carroll had worn out his welcome and I or
have the Seahawks not played anyone worthy yet?

Speaker 1 (06:22):
dB?

Speaker 4 (06:24):
I think that I think that all of that is true.
But to the to the last point of beat who
you're supposed to beat, a lot of teams aren't doing
that in the NFL. Precise Soniers didn't do it, the
Raiders didn't do it yesterday. To that point, I can't
knock Seattle for being three and zero considering that they
have done things that others can't.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Right now, and you know what looks you know, I mean,
I'm I'm a schedule watcher. I know it's a couple
weeks away, but you know, it seems to be a
pretty awesome game, like and it's weeks away, not this week,
not the week after. The forty nine Ers play on
a Thursday night against the Seahawks in a couple of weeks,
and that might be a statement game for your team

(07:03):
or the Niners trying to bounce back after this rough
one and two starts. So that Seattle Seahawks forty nine
Ers game, I believe it's Thursday, October tenth. That Tino
Smith to DK metcalf combo is dangerous if they if
they're on you know what I mean, what was it
what you thow for a seventy seven yard pass? Seventy
one yard pass. Yeah, nice, just playing nice Thursday, October tenth.

(07:24):
It's a couple of weeks away, but that forty nine
er Seahawks game could be something.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
Seahawks schedule gets a lot difficult next week they're part
of the Monday night double header. They are at Detroit
next week, so it does tough enough. But again, you
want to bank these wins now because I think nine
gets you in the playoffs.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, and you know what, Dan Buyer. Interestingly enough, you
said the Lions they won yesterday. But when we talked
about Sam Donald and I showed support, like, you know,
they're not gonna be as bad as you think. I
didn't think this was gonna happen, but I was. I
was on the Sam Donald's gonna be better than you
think bandwagon. I felt it. I was like they still

(08:03):
got to weapons. Sam Darnold, like, don't count this guy out.
He's got a decent ginger fight. I'm not quite Dalton,
It's like close, not even in the bomb park, but
you know, I gotta give it credit. But no one
on planet Earth was talking about how Caleb was gonna
have a rough star. The Bears aren't looking good at all.
People thought when Jordan Love went down. The Packers might

(08:25):
as well call to day Lake Willis looked like a
man on a mission. Yeah, none of it makes sense,
and it just goes to show you you really don't know.
As we keep proving the point over and over again
every week, the NFL is surprising you, and it goes
to our original point that we've said a million times,
you really don't have a great feel until week eight.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Is that why?

Speaker 2 (08:46):
From six to eight? Is that why the ratings are
at an all time high? Like can you look at
the NFL and say, not only is it just a
great product like a good drama on HBO or Showtime
or Netflix, Like don't you guess it?

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Like you don't know what's gonna happen?

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Taking other teams lightly, it's styles making fights like we
always say it's matchup. Maybe maybe we just forget that
all these guys are NFL level to all these guys
have potential to beat.

Speaker 3 (09:10):
You, and every team is in it. Because the oh
and two teams yesterday they all went six and one.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
So the teams had the teams they went into yesterday
oh and two, bottom of the marrow, we're six and one.
Was a big narrative on the Old Red Zone with
Scott Hansen. That was one of the most notable storylines.
For sure, none of it makes sense, but again, those
teams are.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Due to win.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
On Friday when we were going over our picks, I'll
pat myself on the back because I claimed my losses,
so I'll claim my wins. My Solar power parlay hit nicely.
Remember we said it was like bet one hundred win
like four hundred eagles, just scrape by Lions and Chiefs.
But I remember talking about what do you think the
the Locks are and Cavino? Which of these do you

(09:54):
think is a no brainer. I jumped on the Jets
and knowing Cavino is all about y'all Buccaneers man at home.
I did think that, but I went with the Jets.
Yet I was not our pool. When I asked you
on the air, you were. You were saying, like, Yo,
there's no way the Bucks are at home, and come on,
there's no way they'll lose. I'm not denying it. I'm
just saying, as far as they're lock and key, I
went with the Jets, but I did I did think

(10:17):
that the Buccaneers were gonna win.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
I'm not alone. That was one of the big surprises
for sure.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
So they're one of the what was it six teams
that went down Danny g I thought Nicks was Bo
Nicks coming out party in in Tampa.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
Bow Knicks and Daniel Jones, who thought the joke. He's
been the joke of the league lately. Daniel Jones was
gonna throw all those touchdown passes to neighbors.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Joke in the league, unless, of course he's dating k Adams,
which we don't know, right, isn't that the rumor?

Speaker 1 (10:41):
And he'd be like, that's that's the rumor. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
I'm not spreading any rumors. Yeah, man, another surprise yesterday.
And of course we haven't even talked about the frustration
levels in Dallas, Like how embarrassing that is.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
You pay DAK and they lose to the Ravens the.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
Way they did, the frustrations on the sidelines not looking
good for the Cowboys. But again you could also say, well,
the Ravens had to win eventually, right, somebody seems to
have to win eventually.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
At least the Cowboys fought to the very end they.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
Did, but they go down both one and two now,
so that leads us to our doubleheader tonight. Will there
be another three and oh team by the end of
tonight or more surprises?

Speaker 1 (11:26):
Well, I mean.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
Pick your you know, make your guesses before the end
of the show, think about it, and your pick your
two team parlay for tonight, because I don't know if
I have any question Rich, of all the three and
oh teams, right, and let's say the Bills win tonight
and they're three and oh, which ones are the most legit?
Chiefs easily still believing in them, even though Kelsey's.

Speaker 5 (11:47):
Chiefs Chiefs and the reps are just the Chiefs.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Kansas City Reps. I mean, James, you say Chiefs.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
I think they got two lucky calls in two back
to back weeks, three weeks. Seriously, especially you got the
toe on the ends of that. Forgot about that. That
was legit tho, that was but that was close. But
yesterday that was a total missed call once again. So Steelers, Chiefs, Vikings,
Seattle Seahawks, the Bills. Of those undefeated teams that the

(12:15):
Bills went tonight, the Chiefs still the team to beat.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
I guess.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Well, let me let me hit you up with to
show you how confusing the NFL is they are drunk.
They they have points spreads out for this weekend. You
I don't try for the NFL. The most part, the
collective view, it's not only you Rich, I'm talking you
in general, a lot of drunkards out there letting people.

(12:38):
I'm gonna go looking at the next two weeks. The Vikings,
who are three to oh, are underdogs the next two
weeks in the NFL. They're playing a Green Bay and
then they're playing the Jets in London, and looking ahead,
they're underdogs in both of those games.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
So still the.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
Sentiment is like, all right, Sam Darnold, that's great now,
but uh yeah, now you're gonna play the Packers and
the Jets. Man, So I mean you could blink and
in two weeks, I mean play and they're still underdogs.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Is that confirmed? Last I heard, he's still a little
banged up day to day.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Yeah, So Matt Lafleur said today that he's going to
be limited in practice this week. But it's funny, guys,
because with Jordan Love and Justin Herbert last week, Herbert's
got that ankle injury. X Ray's negative today, but they
have Vikings, Packers, Chiefs Chargers next week. The question is
would you risk your guy in week three if he

(13:35):
maybe wasn't one hundred percent. Packers said, we'll go with
Malik Willis. We're fine with there. But the Chargers did
play Herbert and he ended up having to leave the game. Now,
I feel that they're kind of behind the eight ball.
I think Green Bay is in a pretty good position
now in keeping Love out and not rushing him back
for the long season.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Looks like it smart. Looks smart now?

Speaker 6 (13:52):
It does?

Speaker 1 (13:53):
It? Really does? They played well with Adam said twenty twenty. Yeah,
I can't see them still being underdogs though if he's
not playing.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
Yeah, Minnesota's defense is legit. I actually felt bad for
kind of discrediting them on your show last week, guys
when we were talking about two and oh teams. Darnold's
getting the hype because I think it's a good story then,
and the points you make Rich are all valid. But
you hold c. J. Stroud to seven points, you hold
that forty nine ers offense under twenty Yeah, like.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
The down and they made the forty nine ers look
troubled on offense.

Speaker 4 (14:27):
Yeah, that's another pretty clip with just talking to Flora's
like you're like your scheme, Admye ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (14:33):
Yes, he was giving Flora's proper says a lot. Your
scheme's like nothing I've seen, And you're right. C J.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Stroud that was his first real.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Texas until the third quarter, again proving that the NFL
is drunk, Like really, c J.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Stroud.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Rich don't know Wu Tang. He knows nothing about Wu Tang.
He knows Spin doctors. That's Danny J. He's on the
ones and twos as well on the phone super producing
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, Dana, if you
want to say Spin doctors, I was a little miscamp,
be wrong with my parlay on Friday, you were good
one three.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
I like that.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
Rich will be here till Thursday. Yeah, because on Fridays
in Alabama v he's.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
Getting ready for the updates spots on the videos with
Elijah at Covino and Rich. Again, I said it. Scott
Hansen really was driving this home. Danny G mentioned it
the whole story to prove your point, Rich that the
NFL is drunk. None of it makes sense. More drunk
than you were this weekend teams that were owing to
teams that you thought had no shot because they were
stinking like Abe linking. Teams that were owing to this

(15:33):
past weekend went six and one yesterday.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
They all won.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
Except for the Titans, who are still owing three. So
it's very unpredictable. But again it's the NFL. There's still
great athletes. They could beat you any given Sunday as
it goes matchups. Again, that plays a major part. Injuries
plays a major part. And sometimes something Danny g often

(15:57):
likes to point out, you played down to your competition
and then you play up.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
But that's not good.

Speaker 2 (16:02):
Sometimes first year coaches are throwing schemes at you that
you are unfamiliar with.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
It's a little bit of all that.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Seattle's three and oh Dan Bayer said, you gotta win
the games on your schedule that you're quote supposed to
win if you want to be a playoff team, And
the Seahawks are doing just that. Because he's right, the
Seahawks other than the Giants in a couple of weeks,
and hey, you don't know how the Giants will roll.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
But found out the Seahawks two.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
Because you think Geno Smith is old because he's been
around for so long, I think we think of him
rich and I were on TV in New York City,
which feels like a million years ago, and Gino Smith
was the story in the UK and Geno Smith was
the story for the Jets. We were on TV in
twenty thirteen, twenty fourteen in New York. So remember when
his teammate punched him in the Jaws. Yeah, so we've

(16:45):
been talking about him for that long. He's still only
thirty three years old. So I mean, he's playing great.
He's got some great weapons there. Maybe they are legit,
we don't know. But the Seahawks three and oh is
great for them because they do have the Lions, the Giants,
like I said, who knows, then the nine Falcons Bills,
So you're gonna rams Niners again.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
So you'll find out real quick. Yeah, no doubt, no doubt.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
And by the way, to show how the the NFL
world is just fun and crazy. Like you said, zero
and two teams went six and one this weekend.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
That's what made it feel like such a surprise.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Like what offense is way down for quarterbacks, which we've
talked about last week. The hottest quarterback in the league
right now, Sam Donald. He doesn't have quite the redheaded
fade is Andy Dalton.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
No, but he's great. He's playing great. Do you see
the headline that he's shooting his shot with Hawk to
a girl? No?

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Really, no Vikings QB Sam Donald seemingly shoots his shot.
He's liking all her content and then he's putting heart emojis.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
Donald wants a little hawk to actually, hey.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
You know what you're You're three now on top of
the world. I think he deserves it, you know, I
do think, But what do I know?

Speaker 5 (17:54):
Right?

Speaker 2 (17:54):
This is just my opinion from what I see in
twenty second increments on red zone.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
I think Seattle's legit.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
But then again, I felt that the past year plus
because they've been good for a minute, then they sort
of fall off.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
If you ever want to cover my house, you could
pick what gets on the big team. I know, I know,
and I think I think the Vikings are legit.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
I really do. Well, you know, I think it's all
about that defense. So you know what, let's do it.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Things that made you go hmmm, things that make you go, things.

Speaker 5 (18:26):
That make you go.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Now, these are your major takeaways. This is when we
open it up and we go to you Fox Sports
Radio Nation, your chance to chime in be part of
the show. We appreciate you listening. We like to get
you involved. Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox And
if you're busy, hit us up at Covino and Rich
on social media, check our clips and tell us what
made you go hmm? What stood out to you, what

(18:50):
made you go hmmm? As you get ready for a
doubleheader tonight, pumped. I'll tell you what made me go.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Maybe go hmm?

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Is the same Sints who put up multiple forty spots
to start the year, came up short against the Eagles.
Eagles found the way to win that game, but that
offense just came stalled. That offense for New orleanstalled, and
that game was I called that game redemption for Saquon Barkley.

(19:18):
He lost them a game and he had to win
them back one. I just felt like just watching that
game because I did have money on it, and it
was a game I was keeping my eyes on two
big teams that people enjoy. Eagles always good in prime
time and you know game of the week type of scenarios.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
But that game was sort of boring.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
Yeah, low scoring game, most three nothing at halftime, I'm like,
what is going on?

Speaker 1 (19:40):
He was one of those games. So I was shocked
at Seattle.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
I'm sorry the Saints couldn't find a way to put
up any points whatsoever. I'll give you one more and
then I'll hand it over to you, your boy. Baker
Mayfield sacked I believe seven plus times or at least
seven times.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
Just a bad game for the Buccaneers. Here going to
talk it up to that or did?

Speaker 2 (19:58):
I just thought it was just one of those bad games.
Couldn't figure it out, couldn't find a rhythm. Broncos stepped up,
made him look bad. I don't think the Buccaneers aren't
that bad. They just didn't play well. But lots of takeaways.
I got some thoughts. But let's go to yours at
eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. We do this
every Monday, your chance to chime in things that.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Made you go hmm. Who is starting with Sam in Miamiway? Sam?

Speaker 7 (20:23):
Okay, how you doing guys?

Speaker 1 (20:24):
Thanks for taking my call. I think it's about time
somebody said something about all stinky and ridiculous that golfing
game was.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yeah, you know, there's there's a part of me that
he said stinky. A stanmpathetic it was stinky. Tim Boyle
no offense to Tim Boyle or Skyler Thompson. There's just
so many quarterbacks out there that with Tua gone for
the foreseeable future. I don't know if it's Mike McDaniel
or ownership or leadership there that are saying no, no, let's

(20:56):
stick with what we have. Don't you feel like that
team is urgently in the of a move where like tomorrow,
Dan Byer's like breaking news guys, and they picked up
someone via trade or or something though that they can't
go half to see if Tua doesn't play again or
doesn't play for half the year, you can't roll Tim
Boyle out for the next five weeks and think you're
gonna be in any type of race.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
They did sign Tyler Huntley from the Ravens practice squad
last week, but it also then just shows the lack
of awareness of the Dolphins this offseason. That Number one,
they thought Skyler Thompson was good enough, and before he
went out with that chest injury, they were not good enough.
And that b when you have Tua in his situation
before he even suffered the concussion, to not be this

(21:37):
prepared they could make a deal.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
But they yeah, they did not look good yesterday again
that little fun fact. They get all my news courtesy
of memes, so they got to be true. They had
the best total offense in the NFL regular season last year,
but this season the.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Only team in the NFL to not hold the lead
for a.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Single second this season until, like we said, at the
end of their yeah, the one win, Yeah they're one win.
Just to me, the offense is just playing laying that
That made me go hmm, and I'm listening. There's something
about being too prepared. There's something about being unprepared. What
happened when the Falcons drafted Michael Pennock junior. Everyone's like,
what would you do that you just gave Kirk because

(22:15):
with all that money morons like you know. No, it's
pretty nice nowadays in this current NFL to have multiple
quarterbacks that you feel confident playing the position because outside
of Tua, he must have dazzled in uh, you know,
mini camps and stuff. Because Skylett Thompson on the field
does not look good like you, I was looking at
the box. One like Swadel or Tyreek even got touches

(22:38):
a couple catches each. Always have a quality backup in
life as well or just in football.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
That's like having like it. You don't kind of have
like a nice gumat on the side.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
What you gotta have a Janice Rossi to go to
just in case, just when you're a team.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Of that of that level that is expecting playoffs.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
Let's be honest, everyone outside of New England in that
division wanted and things.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
That they are a playoff caliber team.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
You know what makes me say, hm, you already touched
on it, but it really does makes me go hmmm,
the fact that the Steelers are three and oh obviously,
but the whole quarterback situation, like what do they do
with Russell Wilson now?

Speaker 5 (23:13):
For real?

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Like it went from such a storyline to what now,
we're forgetting about them and we're just moving forward. Like
I didn't even hear a peep the past few days
about Russell Wilson and what they're gonna do or how
he's feeling here.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
You know, I haven't heard it, Jack did.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
We went from here and back and forth about him
and Field to dead least squad about him. That makes
me say, now if I mean, I feel like ever
since Roethlisberger came out and spoke out and said, na,
you gotta stick with fields. That's been the decision, and
that's what it is moving forward after three and oh,
you can't go to Russell Wilson.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
I mean, I almost feel like it was a set.
I'll tell you.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
I'll tell you when we almost feel like him and
Tomlin had a little talking. I'm gonna tell you when
we're gonna go to Sammy Wilson. You want to want
to hear one, Yeah, please do, because there's no way
they're making that move now.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Three.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
No, they play the Colts, their favorite, and they play
the Cowboys. You might take an l there because it's,
you know, primetime game, it's on Sunday night. Then the
Raid is, then the Jets. They play the Giants, which
they should handle. The Commanders. They have a favorable schedule
for now. If he goes five hundred over the next

(24:16):
four and they're five and two, you're not pulling them.
I think he gets you a point hand pull them
because at least he's playing well. They're not lighting it
up by any means. But he's gonna learn as it goes.
He's gonna get better. No one's gonna want to throw
Russell Wilson in the mix. That's just a weird storyline
to me. So that makes me say, hmm, the more
the Steelers win, the more well, that's just what it is.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
That question has been answered. Interesting enough, right, more things
that made you go.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
But then I wonder Rich, I wonder how hurt he
had to be to sacrifice his starting job like that.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
He must have been hurt enough.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
You know, you see guys walking around, and the illusion
is like, who don't look better to me? A big
difference of walking around the sideline goofing around like like,
I had to remind myself of this because I saw
Francisco Lindor taking VP, laughing with his teammates.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
I'm like, you gotta play the six games left, Lindor.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
If you can smile on the dugout, you could play.
And then I'm thinking that's not true at all. I mean,
I'm being the idiotic fan when I see you know,
when you see like your favorite players in street clothes
laughing and having fun. Hold on, there's a big difference
between that and taking a hit over the middle brought
up Lindor, though, Okay, because Lindor, the announcement was about
Francisco Lindor, the baseball player Riches Mets was that he's

(25:31):
gonna come back, but limited, like he's not going on
on a limited basis. Wasn't that what Dan Byer was
reporting about Russell Wilson. Remember we called them mister Limited
because he was limited. So he went from limited to
like not even an option. But I mean, and I can't,
like I said, if you in West Pittsburgh collapses, there's

(25:53):
no real window. It's not like they're playing. It's if
the Steelers are playing the Chiefs. You know, Chiefs, Niners, Lions, Eagles,
all these teams in I say, oh, you're gonna get
some l's, but their fa their favorable schedule, makes it
feel like Field is not going anywhere.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
We're just saying he gave up his starting gig. That's
what it feels like to me.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
You know where I think the ultimate table turned on
Russell Wilson with the Steelers is when he was getting
clowned because he suited up in Week one and people
didn't People didn't realize the new rules in the NFL
where even if he's inactive as the emergency quarterback, he
could come in the game, So you needed to be
dressed up like people thought that he was just trying

(26:31):
to be one of the guys.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
You know what, but I sit here, I sit here
with you Monday through Friday, knowing that, and I still
laughed about that because people want to clown us.

Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yes, yes, that's maybe put on his shoulder pads. How
cute Steelers. You can get a load of this guy.
Steelers have a reputation, they have a pride about them.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
They're probably like, yeah, we're better off of Fields. At
this point, Sierra Sierra is currently on Zillo trying to
figure things out. And by the way, Fox Sports Radio
Nation Cavino and Rich not hating on anybody.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
I'm rooting for all these dudes to do well.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
I'm just wondering what's really going on there, because I
don't think you're taking Fields out at this point. I
was watching the fight seeing Daniel Dubois knock out like
knock out Anthony Joshua. It made me say, I'm like,
is Anthony Joshua done? And as of today he's like

(27:27):
far from over, Like this guy still wants to fight.
But it makes me think was the fight we never
got Joshua Wilder or Joshua Fury? You know, just seeing
these heavyweights battle over the weekend. You guys may have
missed it because they fought in the UK. But Daniel Dubois,
I think a lot of people miss it. I would

(27:48):
have missed it if you didn't send me. That's what
the afternoons you downplay.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
I think a lot of people. Dude.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
That was ninety six thousand people deep at Wembley, so
that was a big fight.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
I guess what. You don't live in England, buddy boy.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
It doesn't matter you think ninety six x thousand people
show up just because you think more people you know, right,
it's a big fight.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
It's a heavyweight bout. You think are college football on Saturday?

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Doesn't matter. Are you talking college football? I'm talking boxing
all right. So when you bring up college football, I'll
be sure to shoot it down. I'm saying ninety six
thousand people were there. It was a big fight. Due
blah knock down AJ. Who's next? Is it is Usak next?
Or does AJ use that rematch clause?

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Either way?

Speaker 2 (28:30):
When I see him gett knocked out like that makes
me say, hmm, you maybe should retire.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
That's a little much.

Speaker 2 (28:34):
These big boys could throw so some good fights over
the weekend too. Now feel free to talk college football.
Arch Manning, how about him? Arch Manning had a couple
of picks against the bad team. Yeah, that was that
was that was an interest.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
That was one like that's not good.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
That made me. You know what made me think? Are
the Manning brothers right? Are they there? Like?

Speaker 1 (28:59):
Of course that's a I know what I want to
see their like their reactions. I want to see Manning cast.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
I want to see their reaction to watching their nephew play.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Let'speaking of the Mannings. Things that made you go home?

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Did you see Peyton Manning come out dressed in all
Tennessee gear?

Speaker 1 (29:16):
Did I see that? I did?

Speaker 5 (29:18):
Oh? For the wall in concert for Morgan Wallen.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
I don't know if I saw that threw on his
old arm, Morgan Wallen not in my algorithm. It's a
very big star dding, so much so that he got
Peyton Manning to throw in a college football uniform.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
I don't think I saw that.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
Over the week.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, well, hey, that made me go but you know
what you mentioned it?

Speaker 2 (29:36):
So I want to I want to move on to
this and if you have any more observations, you want
to say, how.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
To a couple more quick people? Sure?

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Absolutely, we try to get you involved every Monday, things
that made you go. It could be in life, doesn't
have to be in football.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Hello Jr. And Boise, what's up?

Speaker 3 (29:51):
Hey, guys?

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Love the show.

Speaker 8 (29:52):
You're my favorite show on the radio.

Speaker 5 (29:54):
Right now.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
I thought you're gonna say heroes. It's just very my
hero at this very minute, work his favorit.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
What's up?

Speaker 5 (30:00):
Man?

Speaker 8 (30:02):
I just I don't have a dog in this fight.
I am a Dolphins fan, but I watched that Chiefs
Falcons game and yes, that was definitely p I in
the end zone. But the Chiefs has three straight penalties
called on them on the Falcons final drive, one of
which was also a questionable pass interference or the sense
of holding. So I just don't understand why where all

(30:23):
this NFL loves the Chiefs and wants them to win
there and have came from I think it's just Kerry
picking plays out of the games. There's tons of miss calls,
for sure, someone with that. But I just don't get
is it is it the Chiefs that's from the Patriots
now that whyready hit them?

Speaker 2 (30:36):
We have we have we have we have Kelsey fatigue,
and it seems like while there are miscalls Throughout any
NFL game, critical moments seem to go in favor of
Mahomes and company. Let's ad to Paul in North Carolina
and then we'll then we'll go on to our bigger
thoughts on the Chiefs.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Oh is it?

Speaker 7 (30:58):
Hey? What's up those Listen? Remember the Bills Mafia? So
go Bills tonight. The thing that makes me go hmmm
is the thought of which New York Mets team are
we going to see? Is it going to be the
Is it going to be? Because I'm a diehard.

Speaker 1 (31:13):
Mets guy, so I like me too.

Speaker 7 (31:14):
Every day I'm every day I'm pumping my fists. But
are we going to see the Mets of the last
four months that have been the best team in baseball
since May fourth? Or is it going to be the
historical Mets that if they blow and go one and
five as they lost six games, missed the playoffs. Is
anybody going to be surprised? Hell no, that's our track record.
So what is the Mets of the past four months

(31:36):
or the Mets historically that blow these opportunities?

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Don't you got not do?

Speaker 2 (31:39):
You got to stop bringing your loser met vibes to
the team because every Mets fan feels that way. And
I don't mean that directed at Paul, but I feel
like every I'm sorry, but every Mets fan knows that
oh no, oh no.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Here it comes. They're going to blow it. And you
don't think the team feels that standards the law of attraction.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
Negative affirmation, man, everybody knows the shoes gonna chop. The
fans are bringing their their weak juju and their week
vive to the team, and its Yeah, Lindor's in there,
and he's playing well, and he's fired up yo, and
and the team really and the fans really believe in
his team, and he stopped bringing his bad luck attitude.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
I think you have a better shot up.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
And I've tried to have this conversation with my negative
met fan friends that you've heard the promo where I
got kicked out of my met fan chat because I'm
too positive.

Speaker 1 (32:32):
Every Met fan is so pessimistic.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Look at the emergence of us in Lindora's absence. Luis anhell, oh,
he's what baby baby Acuna is bringing it.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
So he's got a stroke. He'd be stroking like Clarence Carter.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
So he's stroke more than Pete Didy and his baby
oil nobody. By the way, By the way, I have
a theory that maybe did he have that those thousand
bottle of baby oil. Maybe he was just he had
a bunch of new baseball gloves that need to be
worked in. Yeah, maybe he was starting to wrap wrap
a baseball rubber band oil and.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
Up and then that's it. He had to deal with rawlings. Yeah,
that's it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, good right.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
Right, but he uh, he brought up an interesting point.
As a Mets fan, there is that sense that I
had to tell my buddies that, hey, this team we're
watching now, Nimo Pete, Alonzo, Lindor Acuna, JD. Martinez, Alvarez, Vientos.

(33:34):
They have nothing to do with cessment. Is Daniel Murphy,
Mike Piazza, Darryl Strawberry. This is a brand new team
that of the twenty fifteen team, of all the teams
that choked in six oh seven, O eight, uh reyes
and right, and who's the same the fans, the fans,
stop projecting your weak ass attitude on this dope ass team.

(33:56):
I think that has something to do with if the
Mets wins then and the Mets played tight because they
know you're worried about if the Mets win two out
of three year. You know, I don't want like my
mom around for big events, rich because she gets nervous
for me, And I don't want her nervous energy when
I'm like in my zone, you know what I mean. Like,
let's say I'm hosting a big event, you know, want
your mom there? No, you know why because I know

(34:17):
that she's nervous for me. So I don't like her
nervous energy when I'm like slaying it. How easily, sugar,
are you that your mom's existence being there would would
affect you her nerves? It's an example. You got fifty
five thousand nervous fans.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
Oh yes, yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
You don't think that the team knows that you're thinking that.
It's an analogy and it's an example of what's real
the reality. How about you guys stop projecting the twenty
fifteen team on twenty twenty four steam or the twenty
or the two thousand and six, seven eight, or any
team that sort of fell short. Every Mets fan, by
the way, Paul brings up a great point. Every Mets

(34:55):
fan does that. Yeah, I try not to an in
version of the Mets. You can hear I'm the outcast.
I'm because I'm annoyingly positive, Like, come on, guys, we'll
do it all. My Met fan friends are like you wait, oh,
you're gonna be heartbroken. I'm like, or one of these years,
maybe they went two out of three from Atlanta. They
play Atlanta in Atlanta, they play the Braves in Atlanta Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

(35:16):
There's six games left. If they beat the Braves two
out of three, if my mathematics are correct, that would
put them up three games and the tiebreaker, which means
the Mets would clinch a wild card.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
And then you would hear boom boom boom boom boom boom, boom,
bump bump Edwin Diaz coming in.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
I'm feeling a dude like Timmy Trumpet's was a little
flat on that one.

Speaker 1 (35:44):
You're a better trumpet player. Yeah, I'll bust it out.
You know what, you know what, Mets, The Mets go
the distance.

Speaker 5 (35:59):
I will learn that on trumpet.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
I will perfect.

Speaker 2 (36:02):
So now, speaking of things that make you go, we'll
try to get to the rest of your phone calls.
And you can also add again at Covino and Rich
I did mention Kelsey's hairdoo, his Simon Lebon that he's
got going on. What is his little Annie Lennox, like
little fluffy front that he has? What his jose Canseco
nineteen eighty six.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Is he hungry like the wolf? What? What is that?

Speaker 2 (36:24):
You know I'm talking about? He's got that little Duran
Durant thing going on. I don't know what it is,
but you see it. And that's fine. He's got his mustache,
he's got his girl. Not hating, just stating good for him,
not this weekend, but the imagery. I'm not creating what
goes viral, Okay, I'm just reporting it.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
He looks sad, he does, does he not?

Speaker 2 (36:46):
Every picture you see of this dude is he's like
not happy unless he's with Taylor Swift.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
And the storyline, man, that's the one said drum and
that the story is.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Oh he's saying that Taylor Swift did make the game
and it's like, what, no, get out of here. By
the way, I'm not saying I'm buying into that. I'm
saying I don't like how it looks. I don't like
the the optics, right, I don't like the the whole
look of it well, because if it's not social media,
then it has to be true. Three games it becomes

(37:19):
the narrative. Three games into the season, eight catches, sixty
nine yard, zero tuddies, bro no tuddies, and his production's
way down.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
But you know what, his pal it's me. I'm here.
Mahomes had an explanation for this.

Speaker 6 (37:35):
We're calling a lot of plays for Travis and it's
like two or three people are going to him, so,
I mean, he understands. I think that's the great thing
about him is he wants to make an impact on
the game, but he wants to win at the end
of the day. And I'm gonna try to do my
best to keep feeding him the ball whenever he's there
and whenever he's open. But I mean, I think the
more Rashi makes plays, the more we're able to run
the football, the more we can get Worthy involved. I

(37:57):
think that's going to open Travis up more. I mean,
people are really emphasizing trying to take him away and
it's getting other guys open.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
By the way, according to Mahomes, Travis Kelsey is seeing
more triple teams than spot on a hot weekend. Is
it is no comment, So he's saying, he's saying he's
seeing more double teams and triple teams than ever on Travis.
Do you see the production from Rashi, Rice and Worthy
and and you know Kelsey every year?

Speaker 1 (38:25):
Is it just because he's too popular? Is that it?
I think I don't.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
I don't think it has this popularity. But I think
he realized over the years he had one too seven
seasons in a row with over one thousand yards receiving.
Last year his production was down a little bit this year,
almost not existent. You got to ask yourself, is he
just blocking and playing a different role for the Chiefs
now that they the receivers are playing more overall and

(38:49):
he is getting double and triple teamed? Or has Travis
Kelcey and I say this a bit sarcastically at the
same time because the guy's a competitor.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
Truth is, we don't you really know.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
What what I What I do ask is when he's
seen life outside the NFL grind dating Taylor Swift, billionaire
New Heights New Heights podcast just signed a one hundred
million dollar contract. He you know, throw throw in the
fact that he's in that what is it grotesquerie. He's

(39:21):
now acting happy too, so acting one hundred million dollar podcast.
You see his brother, who is the least popular Kelsey
is all over television. He's a tailer swift. I just
wonder you remember in Rocky three when Rocky started training
and they were like hot women around and Rocky three.
There's another coincidence, rock That's when Sylvester Stan's hair was

(39:43):
the puffiest.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
Yeah see you I got the proofy hair Rocky three,
absolutely like leave it extra poofy on his size.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
Absolutely he's doing exhibition fights with uh Hulkogan a lah Thunderlips.
But do you remember that one scene in the gym
he went a little Holly where where Mickey gets mad
because some it's like blowing bubbles, like there's a there's
a machine of bubbles and there's a funny scene where
Mickey Burgess Mereth like pops a bubble, yeah, and he's
all like, yeah, rock you lost the eye and a tiger.
I just wonder if Mahomes is as focused as he

(40:13):
ever has. He has receivers now, and maybe Travis Kelsey's
starting to maybe if it's even subconsciously think of Oh,
there's a hell of a lot of life after football.
I just signed one hundred million dollar deal with my brother.
I'm a Taylor Swift listen, I've won three Super Bowls.
I have a tire because I'm sure he wants it.
But I would imagine his focus has shifted in other directions,
which is natural and normal. Which means, however, when you're

(40:35):
saying yes to one thing, you're saying no to others.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
So when you're saying.

Speaker 2 (40:39):
Yes to commercials, yes to Adam Sandler, yes to Taylor Swift,
yes to traveling all over the place, yes to wearing
funny hats, yes to doing podcasts, yes to you know,
doing everything else he's doing, He's saying no to all
the focus that he normally had on football. I think
it's just a natural sort of I don't think he's
irresponsibly lacking and slacking in football. I just think that

(41:03):
because on the field, he's still blocking when he needs
to block, He's still doing what he needs to do.
I'm just saying he's still one of the best. I'm
not here to hate on him. I'm just saying it
makes sense to me. I'm just wondering, is he does
do you think subconsciously, because I don't think it's conscious
at all. I just wonder if it's subconsciously meaning look
at your own career. What was in my twenties, I
was working holidays. Anytime someone's like, hey, you want to

(41:24):
host an event or do this or do that? Yeah, sure.
Now I'm like, you know, what's more important going to
my kid's soccer game, spend the time my wife, doing
things for my family. I'm not gonna say yes to
every event or everything. Yeah, maybe you lost the eye
of the tiger, or maybe you just shifted your focus,
and that's you know what I'm saying, Like, what you're
saying is a little more harsh.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Rich lost the eye of the tiger. I bet.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Yeah, he wants to win more than or just as
much as anybody, but it's a little more difficult when
you're spreading yourself thin and you're trying to do everything.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
You know.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
I just think it's we're getting the result of everything
else he's doing.

Speaker 9 (41:59):
You can't forget where you came from. And if he
starts to kind of.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
There'll be new heights, Ohio, Where is he so hot?

Speaker 2 (42:07):
No?

Speaker 9 (42:07):
No, no, But I'm saying like football is his is
what has fed all these other avenues in his life.
And conscious, whether it's conscious or unconscious, that he starts
to neglect where he came from. That's going to start
to trickle down into the other aspects of his career.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Have you heard this?

Speaker 2 (42:24):
You know what he would say, Hey you three jibrinis,
I'm a three times Super Bowl champe.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
But it makes sense.

Speaker 2 (42:28):
Yeah, But because he's getting older and his interests has changed,
his life has changed. It's not a as judgy as
you may think, or it's just the reality the possible
reality's role. We know he turns it around and lights
it up, but it's fair to speculate when he has
zero touchdowns.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
Dan Bayer, what's up? You have thoughts on this?

Speaker 4 (42:47):
Yeah, it's a rich's point when he's saying, like his
priorities in life change. I had this bozo ask if
I wanted to play in a company softball game recently,
and I'm like, how reason was that I was I
don't know, like nineteen minutes or something.

Speaker 5 (43:00):
He's like, yeah, we should all get together.

Speaker 4 (43:01):
From work, and I'm like, I don't want to get
together with work on a Saturday.

Speaker 5 (43:05):
You know, like, no way.

Speaker 1 (43:07):
You know what, Dan, you don't have the eye of
the tiger.

Speaker 5 (43:10):
You lost it.

Speaker 4 (43:12):
I will stay with Kelsey though he kind of started
to slip last year. Yes, but guess who was the
man in the playoffs. Guess who Patrick Mahomes threw to
in Buffalo. And that's I think the only thing like
not that this doesn't mean anything, but they're three and
all right now they could probably put it on cruise
control for a while and still make the playoffs. And
then when those playoffs come around, Travis Kelsey's gonna be there,

(43:38):
Danny g you got this all set up.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Yeah, let's go. Let's do it all right, here we go.
We are gonna have five questions on the board, one
tiebreaker if needed. Let's meet the contestants. Coveno. Hey, he
usually has to go to the parking garage. When we
have Patrick Mahomes in the studio, it's nice to have
him in on some NFL trivia.

Speaker 5 (43:59):
Rich Dave this right.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
Over there, and here we go, Dan Bayer and Spotty Boy.

Speaker 5 (44:05):

jakes to you last time? All right, I'm to stay.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
We are only three games up on the Padres. That
would be interesting, right, We're.

Speaker 7 (44:47):
Playing three games and we got kicking.

Speaker 3 (44:50):
Let's go all right, well, Jerry, the CNR stainless steel
swiggy is going to be better than any Padre water
bottle you have. Here are the rules for NFL trivia.
The first testing with two correct answers is the champ.
If there's a tie, we have a tie breaker question.
Your name's your buzzer, But you do have to wait
until all three possible answers are read. If two wrong
answers go in a row, we move on to the
next question.

Speaker 5 (45:10):
Are you ready?

Speaker 1 (45:12):
Here we go?

Speaker 5 (45:12):

Speaker 5 (45:47):
All right, Round two?

Speaker 1 (45:50):

Speaker 7 (46:01):

most Super Bowl losses? A the Denver Broncos, B the
Minnesota Vikings or C the Buffalo Bills.

Speaker 5 (46:39):
All right, Jerry, does your buzzer work?

Speaker 7 (46:41):
I don't know?

Speaker 5 (46:44):
All right? Here we go round three.

Speaker 3 (46:46):
So far on the board we got buyer in Covino
who was the first unanimous m v P and NFL
history A. Peyton Manning, B Tom Brady or C Lamar
Jackson Rich Rich to get on the board.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
I'm gonna say the year Manning was unstoppable. Peyton Manning, No, Jerry.

Speaker 3 (47:07):
Jerry, tom Brady, Tom Brady, Yes, twenty ten is a battle?

Speaker 5 (47:12):
Yes, three weeks tie here, wait to.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
Go, we're the record. Tom Brady cheated, He cheated. Stop.
That's why I was going with Pate Manning, an honorable man.

Speaker 3 (47:22):
Ryan is related to Rob Parker. All right, here we go.
Number four. What is the most point scored by a
single team in a Super Bowl? A fifty five? B
forty nine or C sixty two?

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Rich Rich fifty five to ten, forty nine ers over
the Broncos. Yes, did you say forty ninety niners? That
was a little long island.

Speaker 1 (47:44):
He was a little kid. John Taylor, Brent Jones, I'll
say fifty points here?

Speaker 8 (47:52):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (47:53):

Spot spot b?

Speaker 5 (48:19):
Yes? Wow?

Speaker 1 (48:22):
Battle? Yes on the board? All right too? Yeah, all right,
so now, by the way, I want it to be
part of it.

Speaker 2 (48:28):
When you think about how every team is now booting
fifty to sixty yarders. It makes it even hurt more
that it was, you know, not that not that undoable?

Speaker 4 (48:38):
Right, the counter to that teams miss extra points all
the time?

Speaker 1 (48:43):
Three yards, yes the time?

Speaker 2 (48:45):
Yeah, true, high pressure situation last night, windy, heartbreaking.

Speaker 3 (48:50):
All right, guys, tiebreaker, no multiple choice, just buzzing with
your name to go first or whatever order you want
to go here. Whoever comes closest is going to be
our big winner.

Speaker 5 (49:00):
All right.

Speaker 3 (49:00):
What is and by the way, this is rounded down
by a tenth of a point. What is Patrick Mahomes'
career quarterback rating? I'll say, all right, buyer, I'll say
ninety nine.

Speaker 5 (49:12):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (49:13):
I wrote Rich here, Rich, how are you nice to meet?
I wrote one oh four.

Speaker 5 (49:18):
Okay, he's next me.

Speaker 1 (49:20):

Let's go ninety four, all right, Spotty, I'll go with
ninety eight, all right.

Speaker 5 (49:27):
And Jerry in Lancaster, California, I'll go.

Speaker 7 (49:30):
With one O three.

Speaker 5 (49:33):
Jerry hit it on the possible the most time to
look it up.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
I mean, Jerry, did you put that upward? Did you
guess I did not?

Speaker 7 (49:44):
You can have my money then I'm driving.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
Wait, dude, you're on fire Bra cheated. He's cheated like
Tom Brady cheated.

Speaker 5 (49:51):
Driving and I made him pick up his handset, so you.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
Know, Jerry, Congratulations, man, you got that nice Fox Sports
Radio swiggy.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
Go listen to your wife, listen to your boss, and
have a good Monday night.

Speaker 5 (50:01):
All right, congratulations Jerry.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
Okay, that's the only time he shut up when it
was his chance to talk. Anyone gonna worry about Jerry.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Jerry, You okay, Cherry, he.

Speaker 5 (50:16):
Just swerved off the road.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
All right.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Well, hey, that was fun, Danny g thank you man,
that was fun. Congrats to Jerry. He wins a Swiggy.
Now maybe we'll get a shipment in at our big
Auburn broadcast on Friday. We'll be in Alabama at Graduate Hotels.
And if you want to qualify for a Swiggy, just
follow rate and review on Apple podcasts. Leave something nice,
say something nice, and maybe Danny g. W'll hit you

(50:38):
up and send you one. So thank you guys for
playing along. We'll do more trivia tomorrow tonight. I think
it's a no brainer of a bet. So hey, if
you want to, if you want to follow my lead.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (50:49):
If not, hey, listen no pressure. I'm not telling you
what to bet, as Rob Parker would say, I'm just
telling you what I bet. I like a teaser here between.
Rob Parker dropped like a burger room fries on TV yesterday.
Really yeah, you're watching him on the Challenge. Yeah, him
and our boy Jonas. Jonas knocks two games tonight Jags

(51:13):
at Bills. Bills are favored by four and a half.
That is perfect to tease up for the Jags getting
ten and a half. So you have Jacksonville plus ten
and a half, they're zero and two. I'm not saying
they're going to beat the Bills, but Monday night close game,
Treva Lawrence got to show something, right, So I like

(51:36):
Jags as an underdog getting ten and a half points. Now,
the other winless team, Bengals at home against the Commanders.
They're a touchdown favorite seven make that one, So you
got Cincinnati just needs to win, get their first w.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
That was Dan Byer's lock of the Week two, by
the way.

Speaker 5 (51:57):
Which one is?

Speaker 2 (51:58):
Yeah, so Cincinnati minus one, Jacksonville plus ten and a half.
Teaser bet lock it in to me, it seems like
how does that lose?

Speaker 3 (52:08):
But the NFL has been so drunk. Yeah, the way
you guys open the show with.

Speaker 1 (52:12):
Maybe I should just go Jacksonville money line. I mean,
maybe the NFL needs some rehab.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
Maybe maybe the NFL needs to stop kicking back on
Grandpa's coughs. Here so tonight doubleheader action. Enjoy it. You
deserve it. Don't let anyone squeeze your shoes or bobby.
You just sit down tonight and enjoy two games. And
they're staggered, like you said, by like forty five minutes,
so you know you'll be able to sort of flip
back and forth between the two. All right, Major League

(52:39):
Baseball six games to go. There's actually games going on
today right now. Cubs and Fills are in the first
but it's only four games because most teams, and in
fact every team, has six games left. Most of them
are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday starting tomorrow, six
days left in the baseball season. A couple teams I
guess that are playing today Tomorrow Wednesday have Thursday off,

(53:01):
but most teams have off today on a Monday. In
the AL, as it stands, the wild card, Yeah, Baltimore
is you know the Yankees took off at the end there,
Baltimore struggle, but they're still your number one wildcard. They're
finking out. Yeah, eighty six and seventy four games up.

(53:21):
Unless they just totally pooped the bed there, they're gonna
be your number one wildcard.

Speaker 1 (53:25):
Here's where it gets fun.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
Sold down there was Johnny Depp's wife, amberman Hamburg heard grumpy.
There's four teams that legitimately have a shot, and that's
Kansas City and Detroit, who're both eighty two and seventy four.
Then you got Minnesota who went on a tailspin. Not
your favorite after school show in the nineties.

Speaker 1 (53:49):
Oh we tailspin?

Speaker 2 (53:51):
Oh uh, they've been slumping, but every for yourself, I
never watched that. Yeah, Will, you're too cool? We are
you watching different strokes every day? It stop the he man,
you're just saying that you're old. Then eighty one and
seventy five and Seattle, who everyone thought was going to
be a postseason team, they've turned it on a little
bit as of waight. So they're eighty and seventy six.
So you got four teams battling it out. And when

(54:12):
you get to this stage of the game, you really
do have to look at who these teams are playing,
and Minnesota plays the Marlins, and then they finish against
the O's where Seattle. Seattle has the Astros, but then
the A's. So some teams want to play spoilers. So
it's hard to say who's got the advantage. I'd say
Seattle because the A's they should have won this weekend.

(54:34):
It was their last series at home ever, you know,
at the Coliseum, and they couldn't even win there there
was anything to play for. It's like, hey, we're never
going to play here again, let's go out on a
high note.

Speaker 1 (54:44):
They couldn't do that.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
Here's the advantage Detroit Tigers. The Tigers played the Rays,
who are five hundred exactly seventy eight and seventy eight.

Speaker 1 (54:52):
They are the definition of average mediocre.

Speaker 2 (54:55):
They play the Rays at home in Detroit, and then
the final three games, when the Tigers need to win
obviously to be in, they play three against the White Sox.
Talk about that luck, Yeah, that's where a schedule matters.
They just want to just be But again, I just
heard from great sources, professionals. In fact, I watched a
lot of MLB TV, right I do, Yeah, and a

(55:17):
lot of these dudes you're like to think that just
because they're the White Sox or whatever, they're just going
to roll over.

Speaker 1 (55:24):
They love to play spoiler. That's what they play for.
At this point. Their professional athlete.

Speaker 2 (55:29):
Want to lost away from an MLB record, I know,
and they and they don't want to do that, and
they want to.

Speaker 1 (55:34):
Give it to the Tigers. And this is it the Tigers, right,
and that's what to do. Yeah, stick it to them,
give them something to play for it.

Speaker 2 (55:41):
They don't just roll over the way people think the
NL little tighter because there's four teams, three spots right now,
the Padres three up on everyone. But you know the
Padres play, they have to go to the Dodgers for
three forget it, and then to the Diamondbacks for three.
So what if what if the Padres got cold against
your Dodgers, Danny, and then those last three games the

(56:04):
Padres and Diamondbacks could be playing for the Wildcard, the.

Speaker 5 (56:07):
Padres falling a pit. That's what's it?

Speaker 1 (56:11):
What's it? Yeah, No, they're done.

Speaker 2 (56:14):
You know, if anyone's gonna choke if and I'm not
wishing it on the Padres, but I think it's then
based on the schedule.

Speaker 1 (56:19):
But the Mets, dude, the Dodgers are hot.

Speaker 2 (56:22):
Man, when you got guys like showhil Tani stepping up
now when it matters like that, they're just feeding off
of that.

Speaker 4 (56:27):
You know.

Speaker 2 (56:27):
Uh, you know the interesting part about the Mets, braves,
So the next three days so far this year they've
played ten times. What do you think their record is
against each other?

Speaker 1 (56:36):
Five and five? You said it, buddy, So whoever takes
two out of three?

Speaker 2 (56:40):
Yeah, not only wins the series ain't bad according to Meatloaf,
but but if you went to if the Mets win
two out of three, that would also mean they own
the tiebreaker.

Speaker 1 (56:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
So if the Mets win two out of three, season's over.
They're in the postseason. Like they they just need to
beat Atlanta in Atlanta, which is not easy. So that
if you're not even a baseball fan, you gotta be
keeping your eye on Mets, Braves, Dodgers. Padres has a
lot of great baseball.

Speaker 1 (57:07):
The Mets, dude.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
I'll tell you, I don't watch the Mets day to day,
but I got them tuned in now.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
I just want to see what they do. Yeah, and they're.

Speaker 2 (57:15):
Playing electric, they are there playing they're playing fun baseball
and listen, I know that NFL's king. I'm not naive,
but you got two NFL games tonight after that until
this weekend of college football and NFL football. The rest
of the week Thursday, Thursday Night football is Cowboys, Giants

(57:38):
baseball this week. This week is all about Pennet racing.
I think that's a file car. Giants coming off Dalla's
coming off a loss like they. I think there's some
fun storyline for everything. There's a storyline there. So hey,
enjoy your baseball foosball tonight, and thank you guys for
hanging out with us. Perfect We'll see you guys tomorrow.
There the promise. Good bye, guys, by the power of

(58:01):
graces call

Speaker 7 (58:05):
H
