Speaker 2 (00:32):
Get this you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Shame stop much? Yeah you got you got live rounds
on that that day?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
You know us thinking, do you guys, will you guys
be claustrophobic in one of those astronauts suits?
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Oh? I think we should try. I think all of
the outrage comments that we'd be making, we should start
trying them and then then using that as content grabs
and then making it out there. Maybe I don't think
I would. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
I mean, the old school ones looked like a lot bigger.
Now I feel like they have like sleek ones, you know,
like they'd be making space, like going to space look cool,
like almost like man, I'm gonna go out to dinner
and I'm gonna put on my space outfit.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
You know, I've always wondered, how do you go to
the restroom in space?
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Oh dude, you go in your pants?
Speaker 5 (01:28):
Man?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Do you're sure they've got like it was like a
catheter or something like hooked up to you.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I mean, I would have to, like, but if it's the.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Problem is like you can't. It obviously floats.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
That's what I'm saying. You can't like you're not commoting it,
you know.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Yeah, I think you hook up to like a catheter
or something. That'd be my guess.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
What's the question.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
Let's go live to our I've taken a crap in
space inside. I always say for the latest.
Speaker 6 (01:54):
I have not, but I wish I had or will
at some point in my life. I don't know, just
for experience of it.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
I have another smell worse.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I said, you have no wind, like like you can't
you're always downwind in essence, like it's just gonna sit there.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
And and if there's no gravity, then doesn't the stench
just sit there anywhere? Right?
Speaker 4 (02:13):
I don't need like a fan.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I don't think it's up. Let's pivot to this question.
Speaker 6 (02:17):
I have for you guys, would you feel claustrophobic in
one of those old school diving suits from like the
eighteen nineties, the same thing.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Well, but it's heavy. It's got the heavy the glass,
and it's got the bars on it like it's trying
to keep intruders out from your guys.
Speaker 6 (02:32):
It's got like the one air pipe that they got
out of the tube that they got to make sure
is never crinkled.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Yeah, it always crinkled always, and then you're like cut off.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
It's weighs like a thousand pounds. I would rather be
trapped in space than in the water. The water, really, yeah,
the water terrifies me.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
I mean you could swim a little bit though.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Right, yeah, a tiny bit. But but do just imagine
if you had to swim to the surface from something
that took place, and you could see the surface, you
saw that it was really really far away. I don't
know which one would be worse, seeing the surface from
underwater or seeing the surface from the air. I'll say this.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Much, it's gonna take you a hell of a lot
more time to get down from space.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
If you're like here anymore.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
It's like, you, guys, remember that dude that was on
the team like Red Bull that jumped from like yeah,
entered almost yeah, and he jumped out of the air
a higher balloon.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
How didn't kill by the way he made it. It
got a little sideways though, Yeah, you made it. Though
he did like pass out or something. Yeah, that's scary.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I think he's I think he started to like go
and like and spiral a little bit. But he made it.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
You know.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
The other thing to like space food, astronaut food, there's
no way that stuff's healthy.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Tank Away, Yeah, I mean they're not.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
They're not eating the real protein bar.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
They used to give you the stuff at Epcot Center
at disney World, Like yeah, it's like, man, this tastes
like s man Like, what is this? Like, you're trying
to encourage me to be an astron not and this
is the food you will.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
It's like if you get something like remember that story
we did different There was that story we did where
the woman found the woman found a McDonald's hamburger that
had been sitting in her closet for like for like
twelve years. Like I imagine astronaut food's got to stay preserved
in that environment. There's no way that it's healthy. There's
(04:24):
got to be some real bad stuff.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
But there's no oxygen, so what it just like actually
get like expired sooner.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
I mean, but like the whole thing space is fake anyway,
So anyway station about you know, stuff that doesn't really exist.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
You know, when people come back from outer space, they're
muscles of atropheed because there's no gravity. So they come
back there all week, they get out and they're like
they're like not as legs.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
All right, space some people, I'm an astronaut, I mean,
that's what they say, killed you, right, gravity? Gravity?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Did someone say that about Mac Jones? He went a space?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Or come on? Having a rough time? Old Mac Jones?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Here?
Speaker 5 (05:07):
As we venture into the Patriots quarterback situation from the
ti raq dot com Zonias dirac dot com will help
you get there, an unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free
road has a protection and over ten thousand recommended installers
ti raq dot com the way tire.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Buying should be Mac and Dobbs. All right, so take
on space.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
So Brady, tell me what this means when you read
the details on this that Mac Jones didn't throw at
practice yesterday during the at least the portion of practice
made available to the media, but instead he watched Bailey
Zappy and Malie Cunningham throw during that session. And look
(05:47):
Albert Breer, who we're going to catch up with here
here in about you know, fifteen twenty minutes from now.
He spoke yesterday that there's people there that think Mac Jones.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Has the yips.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
It feels like we're watching this guy's a career evaporate
because of the situation New England. I feel bad for him,
I really do.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I do too.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
I mean, it seems like from his rookie year to
now he's kind of deteriorated. What I see is a
few things. He has lost all confidence and that's a
scary thing. Like I worry for Bryce Young as well.
When you get to any NFL team. The one thing
I act, and it sounds like so easy to simplify
(06:27):
issues with quarterbacks and say this, but you are throwing
footballs long before the intended target is getting to that
spot or where he's supposed to be. When your livelihood
is literally based on that every time you throw the football,
When your livelihood is based on every single decision you make,
and it's under a microscope, you have to be so
(06:50):
confident in your decision making and so decisive with the
way you go about playing in order to be successful.
Like you look at the all time greats. They don't
play the game with any hesitation. They just play and
it's like one fluid, beautiful thing to watch, right, Like
(07:11):
watch Rogers player, watch Brady or Manning or you know
far for whoever, what the greats now We've got Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
They just play.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
When you notice guys who are hesitant, they're like double clutching.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
They're throwing balls.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
And it just doesn't come out of their finger quite
right because they you can tell they're not confident in
that throw. And it's got to the point now where
I think, because of all the adversity, everything that's been
said about everything he's gone through, he's lost a lot
of confidence in his ability to be the quarterback that
he can be.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
And there's other quarterbacks who fall in that category.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Like this is a young man that I remember meeting
at an event bolt when under armour. He was a confident,
super smart, super accurate young man. I mean, highly highly,
highly competitive. And this is a you know, Trevor Lawrence
and some others that were there, and like somewhere along
the way. Obviously since he's gotten in the NFL, with
everything he's been through, the adversity now has has struck
(08:11):
in a core with his ability to be confident in
the way he's playing. So, you know, is that the
yips I mean, only he would know, only they would
know the people in the you know, behind closed doors.
But you could see that right now in the decision making,
the way he's playing, like he doesn't feel confident about
anything that he's doing right now, and rightfully so, based
on last year and the play calling situation, and based
(08:31):
on this year and how things have gone and them
not having you know, many easy layups or throws for him,
everything is strained and tough, so that I would say
that's like the singular thing that stands out. But if
he's not throwing right now, they're clearly maybe kicking the
tires on either Bailey Zappy starting, Relie Cunningham playing, or
maybe a combination of both. And there's a package for
(08:53):
Millie Cunningham because he's more of a dual threat style
quarterback that can come in and change up how defense
plays you. So it's it's I mean, it's never a
good sign if you've got a guy who's been starting,
he's not out there throwing any balls.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
There using him. Case closed there, it is verdict is in.
The jury came back, the judge render the decision, the
verdict and it is that's correct, you will not play.
It feels worse than the Zach Wilson situation. It's it
(09:27):
seems more decisive than the Zach Wilson situation.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
The tough thing is is mac Jones was a like
ready built NFL quarterback. Right when you looked at what
he was asked to do at Bama and you looked
at his skill set and where he excelled. It was
this thought of, hey, he's playing at the highest level
on coll whech. He's playing at a really high level
the way he's playing, and he can handle all of
what's going to be put on his plate.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
And I thought his rookie year he did that to
some degree.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
And the tough part is is like it's it's trying
to figure out, like where everything went.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Wrong, you know, as far as where we've gotten in
the past.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
You know, three years, how you go from a guy
who's sixty eight percent completion percentage throwing twenty two touchdowns
at thirteen steps almost a two to one ratio, and
for thirty eight hundred yards, whereas now everything has been
kind of on a decline since then. Look, he takes
the blame for it, but honestly, it's not him.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
The whole team has deteriorated. That's the thing about it.
Like he can take the blame forward, or he will
take the blame forward, but the whole team has deteriorated.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Can I ask you, guys, has a question without you looking?
Speaker 3 (10:33):
You gotta have a quick answer on this, Okay, right,
name the leading receiver for the New England Patriots right now?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Really you don't know that?
Speaker 4 (10:41):
Who is it? Jonas?
Speaker 1 (10:43):
You really are looking at you right now?
Speaker 4 (10:44):
Jonas? Looking at Jonas?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
He's but go ahead, Juju Smith.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Schuster, No to Mario Douglas.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Oh yeah, I don't know who that is.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
And again he's he's a first year player, you know.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Yeah, I mean they're high on him, they.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
Yeah, no, you look, he's I believe he was drafted
the six round this year. He's got a lot of
bursting speed five to eight, about one hundred ninety pounds, right,
but he's he can separate.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
But that's that's kind of My point.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Is like when he first got there, you felt a
little more confident in who he was throwing to and
the weapons that they had, and it's just there's not
much help. And actually, if you go back and look
at the two interceptions, look who he's targeting. They're constantly
trying to get the ball to Tomoro Douglas. It's a
tough spot though, when you're trying to get the ball
to a rookie and you know, younger inexperience.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
But it does come back to what you were saying though, Q,
in terms of losing that confidence. You could put Randy
Moss to O and and Jerry Rice out there and
he's still going to have trouble getting the ball to
those guys.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
And I don't know about that.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
And here's the reason why those.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Guy's are pretty good. I actually would like to see
what this would look.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Here's the reason why I don't know, because if you
are being judged, it actually would probably put that much
more pressure on you to be able to deliver it
if you had those guys out there. And with that
being said, us as defenders, when we're doing our weekly
scouting report, we know exactly who those guys are that
you're talking about, we know that you're gonna take even
(12:17):
if they are super super good targets that they have.
We know exactly if the quarterback coming into the game
is one of those Patrick Mahomes or Brett Farrs that
he's going to throw the ball, he has no conscience,
he doesn't care, he's going to go after it, and everybody,
like you said, they praise him for that. Like it's
(12:39):
like we're in we're in the meeting room watching were like, man,
dude is unconscious and how he goes after it. But
we also know the guys that you're like, yeah, this
guy's planning for his job. This guy has had a
bad season. He's continuing to try to fight his way
out of out of the slump that he's in. We
take those things in the consideration. But because it's that
(13:01):
extra moment in time you don't get. You don't get
but so much time in the league, you get so
much time, and that equals a sack of fumble, a
broken up play. It never really unless you get like
the Mike VICKX and the guys that can actually kind
of prolong the play, like how Ben was in his
(13:24):
prime if you can get guys who can extend to play,
like even right now today of Patrick Mahomes, those guys
tend to be able to make great decisions even when
the play breaks down. It's almost a part of the
play design. You come into the game knowing who those
quarterbacks are. The list of guys is very short on
(13:45):
who can do that. So the rest of them were like, yep,
this is a five sack game, this is six sack game. Yeah,
this is a two to three interception game. We know
that coming in because you don't get that amount of time,
and that's what we're banking on when we're doing our
film review. You're trying to gain every bit of a
confidence or or you know, competitive edge that you possibly can,
(14:08):
and little things like this lineman. He's been getting beat
off the ball for you know, all season, Like if
you do this, if you shift, he's going to jump
like he's going to we can get an off sides,
we can draw him off sides. On this guy, you
make book on what guys are struggling with on the
other side.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Of the ball.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I'll bet Mac Jones hates John Lynch's guts because John
Lynch was the guy who wanted Trey Lance and Kyle
Shanahan was the guy who wanted Mac Jones, and just
think about how much different his NFL life would be
if he was in San Fran right now. Damn, that's
brutal and the set is brock party.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
But then again, it didn't work out for Trey Lance
and San Francisco either though, so that's kind of not fair.
He's not He's not even in San fran anymore.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
It did.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
It ain't like he burnt the world down, set it
on fire at opportunities. I mean, he got banged up,
and yeah, but who's had the better career so far?
Mac Jones or or or see, Like, I think that's
a harsh one. I mean, he might have done much
better with I mean a Pro Bowl. There you go.
(15:20):
So I didn't even know that.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
I know y'all didn't. That's why I'm trying to put
you up on some game.
Speaker 8 (15:24):
Yeah yeah, yeah, I got ye real, I got it right,
nine to eleven Pacific, none to two Eastern every Saturday.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
I'm just saying, like, I think it's just an interesting
case study because unfortunately everything outside around him and Lvar
you just said this like it's kind of deteriorated, and
I think that's deteriorated his ability as a player, but
also his confidence in his own play and then how
he can perform out there.
Speaker 5 (15:51):

reporter lead content strategist at the MMQB.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
You can get them on.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
Twitter or x at Albert Breer and listen to AB
just I mean, welcome to the vent tent. Okay, So
anything you want to get off here.
Speaker 11 (17:54):
I don't know, I don't know my timing coming in here.
I think the conversation is going in an interesting direction.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
Already jumped in.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Yeah, so your your thoughts and Murrah Carey's baby daddy, Albert,
I mean, honest, be honest, just be honest one second.
Speaker 7 (18:12):
I mean I don't think that question in the man's
comment there you.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Go there, because you would be all the way in.
I mean, that's all right, you know, I'll take it.
Speaker 12 (18:21):
I mean, I agree with you that it will probably be
a good business.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
It'd be a great business, you know, as I have
feelings too, Albert.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
We uh were five days removed from the game and
the classic between Ohio State and Michigan.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
How do you feel about your buck? Guys?
Speaker 11 (18:39):
Well, not great, but you know it was you know what,
Like I look, I'm the way I deal with these
things is I dive into everything and I wind up
reading everything in the days after and watching things and
all that different stuff. So it's probably not the healthiest thing.
But you know one thing that struck me. I'd be
interested to hear Brady's opinion on this because it's kind
(18:59):
of like, you know, he was there. I like It's
like it kind of crystallized to me, like over the
last couple of days that I really feel like Ohio State,
like the players, the coaches, is almost like they went
out there to prove something, where Michigan went out there
to win a game. And I think in a lot
of ways, Michigan handled that game the way an NFL
(19:21):
team would, where when the true freshman goes in the game,
they throw right at him for a touchdown, when the
when there's an injury at safety, they run at the safety.
When there's you know, linebacker who's danged up, they're throwing
at the linebackers with the tight end so like, and
then they go in the four minute offense at the
end of the game. I just think like Michigan won
that game on the margins, and they won that game
(19:43):
in like a very NFL way like the NFL that
the staff handled that game in a very NFL way
and won it situationally, where you know, it just sort
of felt like Ohio State again, like it kind of
like they went out there was something to prove, like
we're the better team and didn't own the city situations
the way.
Speaker 12 (20:00):
That Michigan did.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Yeah, I mean I guess that's one way of looking
at it.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
I tend to think that the best games in college football,
the best teams, they end up playing in a style
where the situations do matter, you know, like they do
in the NFL, because the margins are so slim. You know,
That's what you kind of don't get throughout the course
of the regular season. Besides two or three games usually right,
and this is one of them where I thought Sharon
Moore went in with a game plan where he was
(20:26):
aggressive on fourth down. He was more creative with the
play calling, you know, coming out of halftime alex Orgy
and the Wildcat that was kind of like, oh, what
are they doing here? It was effective to moving the football.
The half back pass kind of come at a better time.
Like all that creativity, the gutsiness to go for the
fourth downs and when they did to kind of control
the game.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
You just didn't have that from Ohio State.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
And I don't know why, because you really based on
how the past two years have gone, and obviously you
didn't play in the COVID year, It's like you could
have done that.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
You know.
Speaker 11 (20:56):
I hate to say it, but like I you know,
when I was in school, there John Cooper was as
you were growing up in Columbus in the nineties, Brady,
and I just remember like it kind of felt like
Coop coached those games with the way that the worldlone shoulders,
you know what I mean. And I don't want to
put I don't want to say Ryan's there yet, but
like it did feel like that staff had a weight
(21:16):
on it, you know, as it coached in that game,
and that was just disappointing because it felt the same
way last year and then after that it felt like
that weight came off of them when they coached against Georgia,
you know, and.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Well, because they had a shot up way in the
National Championship like that, then the game doesn't seem quite
as significant. If they take care of business win at all,
they'll always be that, well, we lost that one, but
we won a national championship, right. I think the most
interesting thing about the pressure that's on Ryan Day because
of the last three years versus Michigan is John Cooper
was two ten and one. He got thirteen cracks at it,
(21:52):
whereas we're talking about a coach in Rye Day's.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Only lost what six games?
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Yeah, And like people were already ready to move on,
and it's just it's crazy how patient we've gotten as
a fan base aside on I don't.
Speaker 11 (22:03):
Know, I think it's that, But it's also like what
Ryan Day inherited versus what John Cooper inherited, you know
what I mean. Look, I think that's part of it too.
Speaker 7 (22:11):
You know.
Speaker 11 (22:12):
And I do think there was that feeling that that
nineteen team was a national championship caliber team. Now you had,
you know, the Clemson game, they lose a Clemson game
in LSU. Maybe nobody was leaving that year, and then
the next year, you know, you're right there, and then
you lose like a half dozen of starters because of
COVID going into the title game. So and you know,
(22:32):
Tray Summon breaks his collar going on the first play
of the game.
Speaker 7 (22:34):
So I don't know.
Speaker 11 (22:35):
I mean, I feel like, if you're this good, you're
going to keep getting cracks at it. You're going to
eventually break through. It took Jim harbout seven years to
the Ohio State. You know, Devo Davos swinging was seen
a certain way for what seven eight nine years, And
I feel like Michigan and Clemson are two schools that
you know that the patients that those two schools exhibited
with the coaches even when the heat was on, wound
(22:57):
up paying off. And maybe that'll be the case.
Speaker 12 (22:59):
Here.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
One last thing I'm sorry to take out all this
time time about this game, but the only thing I'd
saying defenseive of Earl Bruce is he only had one
season where he.
Speaker 4 (23:07):
Won less than nine games.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
You know, you go back to the John Cooper, it
was a slow build, like it took time and especially
in the beginning for him to kind of get to
where they ultimately got to in the early nineties, but
like late eighties to the nineties, like it.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Wasn't it was.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I mean, I actually thought Earl Bruce had him a
much better and more consistent level, even though you know,
especially through Bowl games and all that.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
As compared to Cooper.
Speaker 11 (23:32):
I think he'd agreed that the Cooper like modernized the
recruiting there, like.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
He nationalized the recruiting.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
You know, David Boston wasn't you know, he really did
bring it on a national scale where you had you know,
guys like Eddie George and David Boston and all that. Yeah,
there's so many Mike Wiley, that's right, that's right.
Speaker 11 (23:50):
He was Michael number five.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, man, Ricky Dudley, can I can I ask you
and just you know, because we can transition to for
me to to the lead Aaron Rodgers. It's it's he
continues to find ways to dominate the minds and the
hearts of fans and media. How how serious is this
(24:17):
return ab.
Speaker 12 (24:19):
It's I mean, it's serious. And they've been.
Speaker 11 (24:23):
You know, they've been talking about like this for a
while and I know, you know, the Jets people have
been very very careful in the way they've addressed it,
and they never but they never set the door, you know.
And in September when all of this sounded crazy, you
know what you would hear from them as well, you know,
like it's not impossible. And even like I can remember
when it was, you know, when we were there in
(24:44):
I mean now I'm trying to think, but when we
were sitting there and.
Speaker 7 (24:48):
You know, in in in like in.
Speaker 12 (24:51):
Right around Halloween.
Speaker 11 (24:52):
I remember talking to somebody there and it was like, okay,
so this could be like first second week of January.
And I got back like, well, you know, it might
be faster than that. So there's always been kind of
like this very cautious undercurrent of optimism on where he
is physically.
Speaker 12 (25:09):
And now I think you're.
Speaker 11 (25:10):
Seeing that start to you know, you're starting to see
the reasoning for it.
Speaker 12 (25:13):
Now.
Speaker 11 (25:13):
I don't know like as far as like the innovative
medical techniques should have been used here, all that different stuff,
but you know, I think it certainly puts them, you know,
I think it's certainly been something.
Speaker 13 (25:24):
Okay, what the hell is happening?
Speaker 12 (25:36):
So this time?
Speaker 11 (25:37):
So this time, guys, this time, can you hear me?
Speaker 4 (25:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (25:42):
Everyone, this time?
Speaker 14 (25:43):
So this time.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
My wife's got in the car and you might have
hurt her, and she's got her mouth wide open right
now and my kid is laughing always my kid.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
Family, How we do put this morn on? Hope you
had a wonderful thing.
Speaker 7 (25:58):
That's a brand?
Speaker 4 (26:00):
They say, don't you mess with her? Do you?
Speaker 7 (26:04):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Do?
Speaker 7 (26:04):
You guys know what just happened?
Speaker 11 (26:06):
But I'm sitting on the porch and the uh, it's
all right, Sorry, man, you're good.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
This is great.
Speaker 7 (26:15):
I see I didn't even get to hear that. You
guys got to hear that.
Speaker 4 (26:18):
You know. What's great is so my three year old.
Speaker 11 (26:21):
My nine year old, my nine year old, we're driving
him up to a hockey tournament. He is a hockey
tournament this weekend in Vermont, and so this is like
kind of like a hectic day for him, which he's
only going to go to school for a couple of hours.
And uh yeah, so I guess he's been a little
Uh he's been a little loud.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Yeah, what my wife calls it was he's been a
little honoring.
Speaker 7 (26:40):
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
My three year old came in two days ago and
I'd hit the mute button try to, you know, calm
her down in the morning once, I was glad it
didn't make air, but part of me wanted it to
make air, just because I was like, this actually could
be great radio. I try to talk down a three
year old how to get back to bed?
Speaker 5 (26:55):
So, Albert, I have a question for you, Uh a
former Ohio state buck guy one justin Fields. Is his
future in Chicago already determined or is he legitimately playing
for the right to be the Bears quarterback of the
future the rest of the way, Well, he.
Speaker 12 (27:15):
Hasn't going to take control over it. Like I think
it's interesting.
Speaker 11 (27:17):
If you like Kyler murray situation in Arizona, right where
he can legitimately play the team out of position to
draft his replacement. Justin Field doesn't have that same level
of control because the Bears have the Panthers pick, and
as long as the Panthers are the worst team in
the league, this is going to come down to Justin
Fields versus Caleb william Justin Fields versus Trake May. That's
(27:37):
sort of where they are and it's probably where they're
going to be at the end of the year. And
that's why I think this is really an uphill client
for him.
Speaker 7 (27:44):
Now.
Speaker 11 (27:45):
I think he's incrementally getting better. I think the people
who've coached and would tell you he just needs to
play and keep playing and keep playing and getting more reps.
The problem for the Bears is, and you know, we
don't even know Ollie who's going to.
Speaker 12 (27:58):
Be making those decisions.
Speaker 11 (28:00):
But the problem for the Bears is now it's like,
do we stick with Justin Fields going into a contract
year and make a decision on a fifty year option,
or do we start that rookie contract clock over again
with a guy who might be a once in every
few years prospecting capa Williams or another guy who is
seen as a really, really good prospect in Drake May.
(28:22):
That's what he's up against. I do think he's getting better.
They're encouraged with certain things from the other night, even
like where he did a good job escaping, he did
a good job handling the rush, he did a good
job with his protections, all that different stuff. He's getting
better in so many ways. I just don't know that
it's happening at a fast enough paste to ward up
what could be coming. And so long as the Panther's
pick remains at.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
The top of the draft order, Albert, I wanted to
ask you about the New England Patriots. We're just talking
about Mac Jones not taking reps. I think spoke to
you last week. You talked about the yips and all that.
As far as this week goes, is it probably gonna
be Zappi and Cunningham who are splitting the reps or
plan for those Patriots?
Speaker 11 (29:00):
Yeah, yeah, I think it's It's trending towards for Bailey's
Abby being the starting quarterback. The question then becomes whether
or not you dress Mac, And you know, I would
say if the idea here is to shut Mac down
for a few weeks, which I think is certainly in
play and part of the decision making here.
Speaker 12 (29:19):
Then I don't know what the point is.
Speaker 14 (29:20):
In dressing him like because you see these You've seen
teams make the mistake in the past right where it's like, okay,
Like even with like Jack Wilson big picture, the Aaron
Rodgers situation, it's like, okay, Like we'd like the kid.
Speaker 11 (29:31):
To sit down and get to you know, get a
reset and get a chance to kind of watch and
learn and and do those things. And then you know,
the starter gets hurt and boom during the game again.
Speaker 12 (29:41):
So you know, Mike guests.
Speaker 11 (29:43):
Would be It'll be either Will Greer, Mali Cunningham as
a backup in Bailey's Abby as a starter on Sunday.
I mean, look, Brady, they benched the kid four times now,
you know, in a single year. So it's just you know,
I I don't know where you go from here if
there's not a real concert clinch toward for for for
for for all the things that got him benched over
(30:04):
those sports first four games, and then again, if you're
going to do that and you're gonna shut them down,
you're going to give him that reset. I think it
does make sense not to dress them on Sunday.
Speaker 5 (30:13):
He's Albert Breers, senior NFL reporter and lead content strategists
at the m m QB.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
You can get him on Twitter at Albert Breer.
Speaker 5 (30:20):

Vermont that they're already getting fired up for. All right,

I mean we get a side of Albert Breer that
no one gets. Tell you that. So was she yelling
at the kid? Well, she wasn't yelling as aggressive, please
say yelling at the kid. She was just making a
point that you know, he didn't need to talk the
(31:05):
way it's the way. Well, he's got a negative approach,
you know, it's just you know, it's a negative approach.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
Jonas, because did did did the kid curse? Because I
heard her say don't say.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
That, don't say that, or don't talk like that. Because
I was. I mean, we had a lot of things
dumped on this show. They're looking at her like this
right now, bres Hey, he's looking at his wife right
now like they're listening to the radio right now. He's
looking at her like you see.
Speaker 4 (31:35):
What you did?
Speaker 5 (31:35):
You imagine we had hit the dump button because Albert
Brears child cursed.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
On the air.

All right, so we do have the the clip from
the Albert Breer interview.

Quick recap of what wasn't last week because we were
off last week was two weeks ago when it was
the Bangals at the Ravens. I'll just give you a
quick recap here. LeVar was the only one who took
the over in this game. It was said at forty six.
Of course, Baltimore won that game thirty four to twenty. Jonas,
you're the only one who took the under on Joe
Burrow passing touchdowns, which was at one and a half.
Remember this is the one where he went out, Jake
Browning came in. Jake Browning threw another touchdown, would have
(36:09):
been over, but it was in fact under.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
For Joe Burrow.
Speaker 16 (36:14):
Everybody took Lamar Jackson over Burrow for combined yards from scrimmage.
Everyone was correct on that and kicking points for Justin
Tucker was at six and a half.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
He had two field goals, four.
Speaker 16 (36:24):
Pats for a total ten points total for the whole week.
LaVar won this week four to one. Brady and Jonas,
you guys went three and two. This evens it up
between LeVar and Jonas. You guys are tied. Brady, you're
right behind them, Ma.
Speaker 4 (36:39):
Just points behind.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
All right, let's go.
Speaker 2 (36:41):
Ooh, all right, guys three right behind.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
But yeah, you know you're right there, Brady.
Speaker 11 (36:47):
Guys.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
Week thirteen, Seahawks and Cowboys point.
Speaker 16 (36:50):
Total for the game forty seven and a half.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
Over.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
I think I want to say the over. I mean,
are we expecting uh.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Seattle to score? Yeah, I'll take the over.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
I'm gonna take the under.
Speaker 5 (37:06):
Okay, I feel a backdoor cover. See I was getting
blown out late. Touchdown love the back door? Maybe three?
No comment three times.
Speaker 16 (37:20):
Moving on, we'll keep it negative. We'll go interceptions for
Juno Smith and.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
A half over. Yeah, I'm gonna take the over on
that one.
Speaker 4 (37:28):
I think the more fallsy one is is it blanded?
Does he take it back to the house?
Speaker 16 (37:33):
Oh all right, We'll go positive for passing and rushing
yards for Dak Prescott combined three oh one and a
half over over.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
I'm gonna take the under on that damn two problem
with Dak. I told y'all this is the game where
they let y'all down shaked under All.
Speaker 16 (37:53):
Right, fellas On the defense, number of sacks for Michael
Parsons is at zero point seventy five over under.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
Oh, I'm gonna take that though.
Speaker 4 (38:01):
I love that. Though I love that, I'm gonna take
the over.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
I think he gets the sack, So Abraham tonight, I'm
gonna take the under because I think he does get
a half.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
I don't give a damn if Walter Jones is back,
Mike is gonna get over one sack like he's going
to get one, at least at least one.
Speaker 16 (38:19):
Absolutely, guys cutaways to Jerry Jones in the suite in
the first half one and a half.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
Under. Wait, they're going hitting. They're going showing.
Speaker 16 (38:34):
Cutaways in the in the broadcast to Jerry Jones in
his suite, only in the first half.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
One and a half, only the first half.
Speaker 5 (38:41):
Jeez, I'll take the over because I think it's gonna
happen consecutively once the game starts.
Speaker 4 (38:47):
Yeah, I'm gonna take the over.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah, after kickoff, after kickoff, before half time, you're saying
one and a half, one and a half. Yeah, I'm
gonna take the under. They're gonna show in one because.
Speaker 5 (38:55):
I think they'll pan to him, they'll have a conversation,
a play will happen.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
And then they'll go back to Dak Prescott is gonna
throw an interception. They're gonna show Mike McCarthy. Then they're
gonna show Jerry Jones.
Speaker 15 (39:08):
I changed my mind. I'm taking it over. I'm taking
it over. They're gonna show you
