You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Historically bad. Welcome to the program. The Dallas Cowboys. Dallas
Cowboys dominated once again, giving up over thirty seven points
per game at home this season. Also, they've been outscored
one eighty seven to sixty nine at home this season.
And to give you context, the last team to be
outscored by more points through the first five home games,
(00:26):
you have to go back to the twenty thirteen Jacksonville
Jaguars stat of the Day, brought to you by Penniny America,

Texans now seven and four, the Cowboys drop two, three
and seven eight seven seven three DP show email address
(01:29):
depat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show. The
Ravens have a situation, and it's a situation. I never
thought that we would be addressing. Justin Tucker has not
been good and you can make a case he might
be recognized as the greatest kicker in NFL history. Certainly
with accuracy, but not with big kicks. Nobody is better
(01:51):
than Adam Vinti in winning big games, but Justin Tucker consistency.
But now we have an issue. We say good morning.
If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for downloading the app.
Our radio affiliates around the country, your phone calls coming
up as well. So John Harbaugh met with the media
and he was asked about Justin Tucker, who has struggled
this year, struggled mightily, and not just long kicks. He's
(02:14):
struggling with extra points, short kicks. And he was asked
about do you bring in some competition at the kicking position.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
No, there's no thought to that. I mean, you have
to find that competition first. Just if you're going to
be blunt about it, you know, where is that competition?
That would be one thing. And the best option right
now is to get Justin you know, back on point
where he's because he's fully capable of doing it. Certainly
haven't lost any confidence in Justin Tucker. You know, you
saw that on the fifty four yarder we sent him
(02:45):
out for and he drilled it. So that's the Justin
Tucker that he wants to see, that we all want
to see on every kick, and he's definitely our best option.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Paul, do you have Justin Tucker's numbers there this season?
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Like you said, from under forty, he's still spotless like
he's always been his entire career. But if you go
back ten years ago, he kind of broke out. In
twenty sixteen, he was ten of ten from fifty plus,
which put him on the map first team All Pro.
Last year he was one of five from fifty plus,
so this is not kind of new. And this year
he's three of seven from fifty plus, which was his thing.
(03:22):
They used to say, like if they get into the
thirty eight yard line. The Ravens are set and now
that's no longer.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
The case, and it's hard to make a name for
yourself as a kicker, and a lot of times, you know,
you live in infamy of oh that's the kicker who
you know. Go back to garrow Yepremian who played for
the Dolphins and they played the Redskins then Redskins in
the Super Bowl and he tried to throw a pass
(03:48):
Mike Bass ended up picking it off, taking it back.
I think the final score was fourteen to seven. But
you remember him for things like that. Scott Norwood, you
remember him for the miss, but being a quarter of
being a kicker and being remembered in a positive way.
Like Adam Vinti. I don't know what his regular season
numbers are were. I just know game on the line,
(04:11):
that's the guy I wanted to kick. Mark Moseley is remembered.
He's a kicker. He won the MVP I think that
was maybe nineteen eighty two with the then Redskins because
they were the highest scoring team and they gave it
to a kicker. It's really hard to stand out, and
it feels like in today's NFL, everybody's making well, you
(04:32):
had a sixty four yarder last night taken off the board,
by the way, But it just seems like they've gotten
to a point where it's too easy, and now you've
got Justin Tucker. It's not too easy. And you'll have
players who talk about, you know, the yips. We've seen
the yips in baseball where Chuck Naublock can't throw it
(04:52):
at the first base, or Steve Sachs can't do it,
or Mackie Sassler can't throw it back to the pitcher.
Golfers talk about that as well, the yips. I don't
know if kickers have the yips, but certainly seems like
that with Justin Tucker.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Yes, Paulin, Well, what's interesting about Justin Tucker is he's
been around a while, but he's thirty five years old,
which really isn't old for a kicker. To put it
in perspective, you talk about Adam vina Teri. Vinitaria played
till age forty seven. Thirty five was the exact midway
point in his career. He made three more Pro Bowls
after thirty five. He did not fade as a deep
kicker until the very very end for him.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Yeah, and maybe your range is a little more limited
the older you get, which is understandable. But are you
better in those pressure situations when hey, we need you
to make this forty seven yarder game on the line.
But the fact that we would even be or the
media even bringing that up of would you bring in
somebody is certainly pretty telling. By the way, the over
(05:52):
under I've been running down some of these, the over
under the Kansas City Chiefs right now fourteen and a half,
over under fourteen and a half, the Bills twelve and
a half, the Lions thirteen and a half right now,
and Buffalo has a couple of tough games coming up,
including playing the Lions and playing the Niners. Kansas City
(06:14):
a couple of games, but I don't look at it
as really that formidable, And I think they'll probably lose
one more game, so they'd have three and then do
the Bills lose two? The Lions one loss right now,
so they're expecting them to lose a few more here.
But it feels like Lions are and look, they haven't
(06:35):
really separated from the Eagles. But if you want to
host the NFC title game, this is where you know,
these games against teams that aren't very good or maybe
they're not playing for anything. Those are sometimes dangerous games
because you ease up on them you don't think they're
playing for anything, and then all of a sudden, somebody
gets squirrely and then you end up losing a game.
(06:56):
Poll question for hour two Seaton, what are you thinking about?
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Up date you on our one here.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Uh we put up there the best bad team we
had the Dolphins, Bengals, Colts, Buccaneers. Okay right now with
sixty four percent of the votes and I even really
close the Bengals. Second place though, was more interesting between
the Dolphins, Colts and Buccaneers. The Buccaneers have twenty percent
of the vote.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
How about that.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Nobody believes in the Colts.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Yeah, but they're still in a playoff hunt, which is
weird in the AFC. It's like, you know, the Colts
and the Broncos, and it feels like the Broncos are
a lot better than the Colts, but they're kind of
both just hanging in there. Yes, PAULI, oh, yes, Ton, Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
The Colts I think are in the eighth spot at
five and six, just one game behind Denver for that
last spot in the seventh position?
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Are you buying in to the Broncos?
Speaker 8 (07:53):
I am buying into the Broncos.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Okay, sounds like you're more leasing the Broncos than buying.
I don't that's you're not buying.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
They got a tough schedule yet, and they got to
finish off with the Chiefs the last game of the year,
so they got to go four and two.
Speaker 9 (08:06):
Cheese will be uh, it'll be third Street quarterback.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
I don't know that's the case that they That sounds
more like a rent to own situation than buying in.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
But yeah, the face to Broncos play Bottle of the Balls. No,
we're not doing that, No, not anymore. Remember when we
did flinch Ball and Ron Burgundy. Ron Burgundy came in
and Fritzy I think got him right in the sack
(08:39):
of y awesome. Yes, it was its great and he
didn't even flinch. Ron Burgundy did even flinch there. All right,
some phone calls coming up. Let's again, Matt Weiner will
join us as well. So the pole question for hour
two is going to be what Seaton we got another
one here from? Uh, We've got one actually here from
Paul Career. I'd rather have Justin Tucker Tony Romo. Interesting,
(09:06):
Paul came out of nowhere.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Well, let's think about Justin Tucker's career. He's pretty famous
for a kicker. He's definitely well paid. He's the highest
paid kicker of all time, and he's going to the
Hall of Fame, which is really tough to do at
that position. Or you could be a position player, a quarterback.
But Tony Romo had a good career, somewhat unsatisfied or unfulfilled,
but he played quarterback. He's not in danger of going
(09:30):
to the Hall of Fame. You've had a very good career.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Whose career would you want, right, Todd, Justin Tucker or
Tony Romo At that old question, I'm going to go
Tony Romo, all right, eight seaton.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
I'm going to say Justin Tucker all day, actually all day.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
But we're not factoring in that he's making eighteen million
dollars a year from CBS. No, this is just your
playing career.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Playing career and playing pay, which surprisingly Justin Tucker is
not far off from Tony Romo in playing pay.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Okay, but but not post career correct factoring then, Okay, Marvin,
Tony Romo Justin Tucker.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
Well, since we're leaving out the CBS career Justin Tucker.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yal Paul, it feels like you're going Justin Tucker. This
is why you brought up the pole question.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Yeah, it's it's kind of close though, because you want
to be a starting quarterback who goes to some Pro
Bowls as opposed to a kicker that's a specialist. But
Tucker's going to the Hall of Fame. He'll he'll be
remembered positively. Okay, bonus coverage. Anyone want to play the
Justin Tucker career salary game?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
But I would take the Justin Tucker career over Tony Romo. Uh,
how about Justin Tucker Philip Rivers, Philip River? Todd, you
hate Philip Rivers.
Speaker 8 (10:50):
Justin Tucker.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
I'll take Romo, but for switching it that way, I
will go Justin Tucker over Philip River.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
What about Justin Tucker over Matt Ryan? Oh dude, good,
that's toughee, Todd said.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
Matt Ryan is a career, all career salary guy though.
Oh yeah, he did very well for himself.
Speaker 8 (11:14):
Yes, yes, I'm gonna go Justin Tucker there.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
All right? Seaton Justin Tucker, Mett Ryan.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
You know, I don't know that I could live my
whole life.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
With that Super Bowl explaining twenty eight to three.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
I mean, you know, like like with Tony Romo, it
was kind of like, well, his most famous play is
fumbling a snap. I don't want to do that, you know,
but I think Justin Tucker.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
All right, Marv, Justin Tucker, Paul, Matt Ryan, Justin Tucker.
Speaker 9 (11:56):
This is tough.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Ryan's got an MVP Pro Bowls money. But I can't
choose like Seaton to choose that pain. Tucker's got a
Super Bowl ring. I'm going Justin Tucker.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna go Justin Tucker, because you know when
you walk in the room that eventually somebody's gonna say
something about twenty eight to three or you know, hey,
what time is it, Oh it's twenty eight to three.
Speaker 9 (12:22):
Oh god, you know.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Matt Ryan should be allowed to punch one person a year,
Like there should be some type of disclaimer or hall
pass where if one person walks up to Matt he's
a big dude. He should be allowed to drop one
dude a year who says that stuff, and.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
It should be one of the coaches from the Falcons team.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Wowhan wasn't mad at fault? Come here, Kyle, I gotta
punch you again. This year.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Matt Ryan at one point made almost in a year.
Justin Tucker's career salary.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Oh well, okay, career salary, Justin Tucker.
Speaker 10 (13:06):
Let's go salbary salary, salary, salary, salary, salary, salary, salary salary.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Okay, Justin Tucker, Sodd, I got to parts. I got
to give you some hints here, just to put in perspective.
Justin Tucker's been in the league since two thousand and twelve.
He's been there a long time. So we're gonna go
up to this point because he has three years remaining
on his contract, but there's out after this year for
(13:56):
the Bravens.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
By the way, thanks all right, Todd. Justin Tucker career salary.
Speaker 8 (14:02):
Forty eight point eight three million.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I like that Seaton. I already know what it is.
Oh okay, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
Fifty two point five million, m man.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Okay, I'm gonna go forty nine to nine Justin Tucker.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
I mean I made it a slide rule or calculator
because Dan and Marvin are really tight. Fifty one million
seventy three thousand so far.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Okay, you guys are right in between it. Yeah, okay,
checking we'll share the victory.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
He does have four million a year coming the next
three years, but the Ravens can get out of it unfortunately.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Okay, let me take a break. We'll get phone calls
coming up, Matt Liiner, we'll join us on loan from Fox.
We'll get to your phone calls eight seven seven three

He is the co host of Throwbacks Podcast, one of
Heisman Trophy, a couple of national titles at USC and
now part of the Fox Sports Big Noon Kickoff. But
he's joining us on behalf of Abbott sharing more about
the We Give Blood Drive and in conjunction with the
Big Ten, we'll have Matt explain that coming up in
a moment. Good to see you again. How do you
(15:35):
think your career would be different, if any if you
came out now as opposed to when you did.
Speaker 11 (15:41):
That's a great question. I probably wouldn't have get drafted.
I wouldn't have got drafted Dan because I couldn't fit
in the style of offenses that are played now. So
it's a different world of football, and I see it
at the lowest levels from flag football, youth tackle football.
I'm watching my son play high school football, who just
committed to SMU in the last couple weeks. Was pretty cool.
(16:03):
So the game has really shifted from just from my
personal style of play. I think probably I would have
been okay, but you know, you got to be able
to move, you got to be able to do a
lot of other things in this day and age of football,
which was something that I was very limited in. Maybe
I would have pitched in baseball probably, But.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Are the days of the drop back passer gone or
kind of becoming extinct.
Speaker 11 (16:31):
It's a good question. I mean, look, I'm still maybe
this is just the traditional I'm still a believer that
you have to win from the pocket. You have to
win from between the tackles. You have to be able to,
you know, pick up or be able to throw when
you're getting blits inside it, take those hits. I don't
think you can run around and just make plays. All
that being said, a lot of these guys now and
(16:54):
obviously Mahomes is a great example, like can do that,
but they can also do more, you know, and that
was that was the biggest difference I think. I think
if you're looking at today's age, you know, you look
at someone like Aaron Rodgers, who obviously is at the
tail end of his career and never was considered a
statue in the pocket, but he would run when he
had to, and he was a great athlete. He might
(17:15):
be like the last of the guys that just would
really prefer to stay in there and throw from the pocket.
But that's how you win a lot of games. So
it is interesting that that position is just completely evolved
and changed over the last decade, and you're seeing it
played at a very very high level. It's just different
than what we're used to. You know, there's no more
(17:35):
under center play action. Really. Jared Goff, you know, Jared
Goff is a person that I look at and is
like he's he's kind of one of those like last
of the Mohicans who is not going to run. He's
gonna make his living from the pocket. But he's got
that system around him and the way they're doing it,
so it's it's interesting the way it's evolved into what
it is.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
And Matthew Stafford you could throw him in there. It's
how people have fallen in love with Matthew Stafford almost overnight.
Like what you have these younger quarterbacks there, they look
up to him.
Speaker 10 (18:05):
C J.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Stroud and Caleb Williams are like, man, I love Matthew Stafford.
What is it about Stafford? Now he was great against
the Patriots, you know, four touchdown passes, But what is
it about Stafford though that maybe is different than these
maybe pocket quarterbacks.
Speaker 11 (18:22):
He It's such a great question because I feel like
he's maybe the one of the most underrated quarterbacks that
we've seen in the last fifteen twenty years, at least
since he's playing. I mean, he's the number one pick
out of Georgia. Was was I don't want to say
stuck in Detroit, but was in Detroit for most of
his careers, so one games but never really you know,
the playoffs and all that. But the dude is the toughest,
(18:44):
one of the toughest players you ever meet. He just,
you know, I think he's one of those guys like
he has elite arm strength, he moves, he has all
of those traits and like, I don't know, it's like,
you know, it's one of those guys that all these
young kids are like, oh, we love Stafford. And I
think it's like I think it's his toughness. I think
it's the longevity. I think it's all of these things.
(19:05):
I don't think people realize, like he took a beating
in Detroit. You know, you have some of those highlights
where he's playing with like like like he is just
one of those dudes that is like it should be
in the Hall of Fame, Like I hope he's won
a super Bowl and he's still playing. Yeah, I think
so too, and he's he's still playing at a high level.
And it's interesting because in that generation, you know, you
(19:26):
look at kind of like obviously Brady, and then you
look at like Manning's and all of those guys, Breese
and you know, guys that I early in micro I
played with and kind of look up to because that
was what the quarterbacks looked like. Roethlisberger was was a
little bit of a different type of player, uh when
he was playing. But Stafford has kind of just like
stood the test of time, you know, part of that,
(19:47):
but also part of this new generation of players. And
I think he's just really when he went to LA
he really started to gain the respect of his peers,
I think, you know. And that's why a lot of
these guys like to emulate their game after him.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
If I said you could pick, you can be Josh
Allen or Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 11 (20:07):
I mean, I mean Patty, I'd be Patty Mahomes. Give
me a couple of rings, Dan, Come on, you remember
we lost it. We lost to the Steelers in the
Super Bowl. Man san Antonio Holmes or outside I would
have had I would have had a ring as a
backup quarterback, which had been fantastic. But you know what
I love, I don't.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I mean, you nervous about getting in the Super Bowl
if you want to hear it?
Speaker 11 (20:29):
Okay, So Dan, you want to hear great stories. So
we're we're in that Super Bowl, right, which was a
great one, and we score, uh, Kurt throws a little
in row and Larry splits the safetyes right runs for
like seventy yards. We go up with a couple of
minutes left. Ben just marches down. He throws that incredible
throw to San Antonio Holmes in the back of the
end zone. There was I don't know, say thirty seconds.
(20:51):
There was enough time for us to maybe move and
I think I think we needed a touchdown to win.
Kurt got I think on one play Kurt got hurt
his shoulder on like a sack and there was still
time left, and I don't it. Basically, what was going
to happen is if it was an incomplete plais or
whatever the clock stopped. I was going in on the
last play to throw a damn hell Mary to try
(21:14):
to win the super because he couldn't throw he like
he bangushed. I think Lamar Woodley got him or something
on the outside. So I'm sitting there. I think Todd
Haley was the OC at the time, and I'm like,
oh my god, I'm certain to warm Up'm about to
have to throw a fifty five yard ball to win
the game. Could you imagine if that would have happened
and they got a touchdown but you didn't, I'd be
(21:35):
going to Disneyland. Yeah No, I didn't get in. It
was incredible though, man, that was yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
But you know, no warm up, Like it's not like
they let you go to the bullpen like you're trying
to loosen up your arm. You're on the sidelines.
Speaker 11 (21:47):
You know, in that moment adrenaline, I probably would have
chucked at sixty yards for sure. Any other day, you know,
probably not, but that one, just going out there and
to heave it, I would have got it there for sure.
It was about a fifty five yard throw which I
could have handled.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
He's Matt Liiner and you can see him. The Fox
Sports Big Noon Kickoff, you got Indiana and Ohio State.
Now Ohio State. There's been some kind of blowback on
why are we always playing these neon games? Now, I
understand pre game, right into the game, does Ohio State
have a legitimate beef that maybe they should play later
(22:24):
in the afternoon or in the evening.
Speaker 11 (22:26):
Well, I mean you got to remember too the you
know again, this is above my pay grade.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
I know.
Speaker 11 (22:31):
The last couple of weeks and getting a lot of
the fans have been upset essentially because it, in their eyes,
gives their team an advantage, whether it's the wide alpen state,
which I get as a as a college football fan
as well. You know, Fox in the Big Neon strategy
started a handful of years ago to own that window
and to be the big game in the morning when
(22:52):
we all wake up and we sit on the couch
for twelve hours to watch college football. And it's been
a great It's been great for Fox, I think, I
think it has been overall a great for fans in
college football because you're getting a big, big ten game
or whatever it is in that in that slot for
us as big new kickoff. You know, we we go
where we go and the shows and we try to
(23:12):
promote and give a great show and give the fans
what they want. So some of that is a lot
of that is out of my control personally, in our
out of our control as a show. But the games
have been great. I think Gus, Joel and Jenny on
on the game side do it a tremendous job. Are
the best in college football in my opinion, and we
just kind of we kind of we kind of do
(23:33):
what we don't so so I can understand when fans
are upset and they want all day and they want
the night game and all that, but it is what
it is and and it's worked for us.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
If I said that we were going to play backyard football,
big newon kickoff versus game day?
Speaker 11 (23:50):
Why are you trying to stir the pot?
Speaker 10 (23:51):
Dan?
Speaker 11 (23:51):
Come on? Those are those are my listen? I would
say a game day. Game day is the staple of
college football. They've been doing it for a long long time.
Those guys over there.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Is talking flag football, flag football.
Speaker 11 (24:07):
Oh oh, we're a lot younger than those guys. Remember
we got you know, we got mark Ingram who just
who could still play? I just hand the ball off
to him, and I'm not sure anybody anybody over there
is Mark. We want to play tackle football. I'm sure
you know McAfee would want to play tackle football too.
He's he's a little crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
But okay, but but are you starting over Brady Quinn?
Speaker 11 (24:30):
You know what, I'll play receiver. That's fine. Actually, actually
I got two new hips, Dan, so I don't know
if I could be playing receiver. Probably I'll be Bok
Brady at tight end. No one's getting in front of
that train either. Hey guess what, Dan, real quick, real quick.
I want to say this because last time I saw you,
I think me and Jerry were on the show Farra
(24:50):
for throwbacks. We got a big, big shooting competition today basketball.
We've been talking a lot of smack online. I just
want to let you know we're going to be at
USC later. A little three point shot. Who you got man?
Who you think is winning that one? Thank you? I
appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
Thank you.
Speaker 11 (25:09):
That's all I just wanted to I told Jerry to
turn on the show the morning to watch, so I
give him. I give him a little plug.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Explain how you got Kobe's jersey over your shoulder?
Speaker 11 (25:22):
So great question. So Kobe my all time favorite athlete.
I met Kobe in Newport Beach. It's where he lived
and we had a mutual friend. So I met him
years and years and years ago, actually met him when
I was at USC and all those things, but I
really got to know him outside of that world at
(25:42):
like barbecues down in Newport all these things just on
a different level and became, you know, some somewhat friends,
you know, when I saw him and all those things,
and I just I asked for I was like, hey,
would you sign this whatever? And then that's how I
got that, and then it's you know, obviously when he
passed away, I had seen him. My son, my oldest son,
(26:05):
plays basketball too, as well as football. And we were
playing in the Made Hoops Tournament, which is the circuit
all around the West Coast, and Kobe was coaching his
daughter and that team in the same circuit on the
girl side, and we had seen him earlier in that
month of January at the Mamba Academy over down in
(26:26):
Thousand Oaks for that weekend. It's a weekend of basketball,
and then you play a couple weekends later, a couple
weekends later, and I'll like, I've had that jersey for years.
I'll just never forget. We were talking for probably twenty minutes.
He had seen Cole. He's like, damn, Cole, you've grown.
Like Cole was already like six feet in seventh grade
or something like that. We were watching him coach his
(26:49):
daughter and the girls team right there, and then a
couple of weeks later, obviously the tragedy happened, but also too,
I you know, I know Vanessa fairly well and his
her daughter, the youngest ones play in our flag football
leagues down in Orange County, which is which has been
pretty awesome to have them a part of that too.
So Toby my all time favorite athlete. I got a
(27:12):
chance to know him and obviously we miss him and
everybody misses him.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Tell me what you're doing with Abbot the we give
blood drive in conjunction with the Big Ten.
Speaker 11 (27:21):
Yeah, so this is this is really incredible what Abbot
is doing. So they've partnered with all of the Big
ten schools basically to launch a competition to see who
can donate the most blood and and the school who
donates the most blood gets a million dollars to an
advanced student or health community help. So there's a big
incentive for people to go out there and not only
(27:42):
just support your school and whatever school that may be,
but also to give blood and donate. We have a severe,
severe blood shortage in this country and millions of people
impacted by that. So it's it's just a really cool
campaign and a competition to get people out there to don't.
You can go to Big ten, Big ten dot org,
(28:03):
backslash Abbot to pick a location, you donate blood, you
upload your proof of donation, which is really important out
there are who are listening, and you pick your school
and it's as simple as that and the winner will
be announced. But the Big ten Championship came December seventh,
So Abbat's doing an incredible job with this and again,
as I said, the blood shortage is real in this country,
so I encourage everybody. I'm actually giving blood this Friday
(28:26):
up in Ohio. State will be out in Columbus for
the game, So I'm gonna I'm gonna do that Friday.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Give me sixty seconds on the state of USC football.
Speaker 11 (28:36):
I'm gonna need about two hours, but in sixty seconds.
In sixty seconds, we are. And I say we obviously
because I'm a Trojan, but I'm a fan. I want
to see my school do well. It's a challenging spot
right now. You know, the expectation is really high at USC.
Lincoln came in three years ago. This is third year
(28:58):
and almost went to a college football playoff, right which
was a great year. We fell short in the Pack
Pactfeld Championship Game, and then it's sort of tailed off
over the last couple of years. And we knew going
into this year, the first year of the Big Ten,
it's gonna be a challenge and a lot of new
pieces on the team, and it hasn't been this season.
I think he would want, the team would want, and
the USC fan base, and I would just say, big picture,
(29:20):
you know like he knows, he knows what he needs
to do. He knows what the expectation is at USC
and and I believe with Nil and believe with the
talent in Southern California that there is there there's no
excuse not to be able to build a championship team.
And I think he knows that. So listen, the pulse
is it's it's tough. There's a lot of people, a
lot of fans that are frustrated, and you know, the
(29:44):
Mancha Kan is like it's the same thing week in
and week out, and then that just needs to be changed.
And I'm not I'm not saying anything anybody doesn't know
but us. He needs to get better. It's playing and simple.
They have a chance to beat UCLA this week, they
have a chance to play Notre Dame next week and
maybe knock them out of the playoffs. So there's still
stuff to play for and it kind of create some
(30:04):
excitement going into next year.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
The best team in college football is the best team, he.
Speaker 11 (30:11):
Said, yeah, I'd say Oregon. I know they're number one,
but I just I you know, in the knock with
them is like I think it's still like the perception
of maybe what they've been in the past, like a
lot of speed, but don't have this like this is
not that, Like Dan Lanning is a real dude. Like
Dan Lanning is an SEC coach. Dan Lanning has built
(30:33):
a team like that they can play with anybody up front,
and they have the speed to play with anybody like
in Ohio State and some of these these teams that
have tremendous talent on the outside. And Dylan Gabriels, I mean, gosh,
he's played a lot of football and he's won a
lot of games. So I think Oregon is is for
sure number one, but it is very This year is
(30:53):
fantastic because you have, honestly, like I think you have
seven or eight teams like Ole Miss could win the
national champampionship. Georgia even though they've been up and down,
could win, Bama can win, Texas can win. Ohio State, Oregon,
Penn State for that matter, might have it like you.
Just like honestly, I think anybody could beat anybody right now,
which is great.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
He's Matt Liinert and for more information Big ten dot

Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am
Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAP.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Calves are getting five tonight against the Celtics. Cabs are
fifteen to oh Celtics are eleven and three. The odds
on favorite to have the most points tonight is Jason
Tatum than Donovan Mitchell. Here's one for you. Jazz are
getting eleven against the Lakers. Lebron James over under twenty
three and a half. Let's see how about Pelicans are
(32:20):
getting twelve against the Mavericks over under Luca twenty seven
and a half. He's gone over this number in six
of his last nine games. I think I'm officially getting old.
Like I can embrace it that I'm officially old.
Speaker 9 (32:37):
What's the typical thing.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
I got into a conversation yesterday last night with a
Mets fan, a good friend of mine, and he's saying,
why are you down on loan Soto? I said, I
just don't want to spend seven hundred million dollars on
Lon Soto. He's like, why, this is just monopoly money.
I said, well, I don't know. Maybe it's just the
principle of show. He tawny six hundred million dollars and
(33:03):
at least he gives you worldwide recognition. He can pitch,
he can hit, he's a great player, he steals bases,
all these things. One Soto is probably going to get
seven hundred million dollars. And then you realize that at
some point over the next couple of years, Luka Doncic
is going to make ninety million dollars a year, maybe more,
(33:25):
maybe a hundred million at some point. And I guess
I'm just caught up in these salaries where I go, gosh, that,
what do you get for that kind of money?
Speaker 11 (33:34):
Number?
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Fifty million dollars for a quarterback? You're like, oh my god,
now all of a sudden, you don't even blink. And
I'm still caught up in decades ago, where you're going,
you're gonna spend that much money on a baseball player
for that amount of time. And my point was, nobody
is going to watch one. You're not saying, kids, we're
going to the game because we got to see one, Soda,
(33:58):
You're not. Now you might have said that about Mike
Trout or Albert Poohol's Aaron Judge, Clayton Kershaw back in
the day, Paul's scheme, Like, there's certain players I just
Bryce Harper, there's certain players where you go, you know
what they're worth that extra money because they bring you
to the ballpark. I just said, I just don't get
(34:18):
it with with Sodo, just don't get it. But I'm
in the minority there and I'll probably stated that I
call him. I didn't call him Luis Soto. I'll be
Luis Soho. But it was one so okay. So I
officially realized that I was old last night because I'm
complaining about salaries here. But Luca, he's going to be
(34:42):
a ninety million Shay Gilgess, Alexander, these guys are going
to make ninety million dollars a year pretty soon. Score

(35:05):
back in, PAULI.
Speaker 9 (35:07):
Let me explain.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
Unlike in or Out, which is tomorrow's white hot segment,
this is a little more declarative, like done done means
that team can't make the playoffs and.
Speaker 9 (35:16):
Back end means they're in it. They're still in the mix.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
Ready, okay, well, curveball here b Yu football.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I have to look at I'd have to do some
homework on that of who they play and what happened
has to happen before.
Speaker 9 (35:31):
We don't prep for these segments.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah, oh wow, Okay, done done. I'm gonna say done done.
They're done, done done.
Speaker 9 (35:41):
Anybody still love the Kougs.
Speaker 8 (35:43):
I'm gonna stick with b Yu. I think they're still
in the mix.
Speaker 9 (35:45):
Shockingly, Fritzy still loves the cos.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
Yeah, here you go, here we go. They were on
the list last week. The Cincinnati Bengals after another loss.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
Done done, I'm out out, like I'm done, done out out.
Speaker 9 (36:00):
Even though they have this fantastic offense.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
I know, I know, but I just it feels like
every week we say this and I'm going to say
that I'm done done.
Speaker 6 (36:10):
I think I was out out on them in like
week here, how you were? But were you done done
on week three?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Okay?
Speaker 6 (36:17):
Well, is there a difference between out out and done?
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Done? Out out?
Speaker 9 (36:20):
As me?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Done done?
Speaker 5 (36:21):
Is them?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Right?
Speaker 4 (36:22):
This game allows you to be out out in week
three and jump back in in week eleven. That's why
this game is perfect for flip floppers like us.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
But he could be back in and then be done done.
So he could come back in and be done done.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
How about the five and six Indianapolis Colts. A sudden
breath of fresh air at quarterback? Who's back in?
Speaker 2 (36:46):
I am?
Speaker 5 (36:47):
I'm in?
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I mean I'm back in as a casual in by me?
I am back in.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
I'm out out or done done with them? I think
this is a fakelip. Okay, here we go. The Dallas
Cowboys at their record is awful. Their their record is
three and seven, they lost five in a row. Okay,
everyone's done to high.
Speaker 6 (37:11):
Yeah, I mean, is there anything to be not done
with them?
Speaker 2 (37:17):
What would you be back in for? I don't know,
except for more did.
Speaker 9 (37:22):
They were on the sheet? The guys in back way?
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Thank you, sir? May I have another. I'm back in.
Speaker 4 (37:28):
Okay, done done, back in on the entire NFC South.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
I'm still with Kirk d Cousins. I'm I'm I'm in.
I'm back in on the Falcons.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
The Falcons have lost two in a row, the Bucks
have lost four in a row. The bad teams quote unquote,
the Saints have won too in a row, and the
Panthers weirdly have won.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
In Oh, Okay, Okay, here we go.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
This is the biggie, the San Francisco forty nine ers.
They are five and five. They're in last place in
the NFC West, but they are the best scoring team
in the NAFTY West.
Speaker 7 (38:05):
Todd, that division is up for grabs, so I can't
be out out and I'm still with them, Still with
the mon.
Speaker 9 (38:11):
It's not an option.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
It's done done Seaton.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
Uh, I forget what the option is, but the opposite
of done done, I'm definitely not done done with them.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
You're back in, Okay, I'm back in. Yeah, all right, Marvin,
I was always in. Yeah, that's right, cheer team. I'm
back in. I'm they're lingering. I think all you gotta
do is linger in the west.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
Last one, since we can't put them in, uh in
or out tomorrow. The Cavaliers winning streak. If you're done done,
you think it's done. If you're back in, we're gonna
shoehorn that into You think they're gonna beat the Celtics tonight?
Speaker 9 (38:47):
Done, Dunn.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
I've always been in on the Cavs.
Speaker 9 (38:53):
Are you in tonight though?
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (38:55):
Really? Why not surprised?
Speaker 7 (38:58):
I think the Cuts are gonna be motivated to hand
the Calves their first loss at t D Garden and
the streak ends tonight.
Speaker 8 (39:05):
Boston Beast Cleveland.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Oh oh see. You think they'll be motivated.
Speaker 7 (39:08):
I think they'll be extra motivated when there's a little
something extra early the season. Who cares, but the team's
coming onto our court trying to stay undefeated.
Speaker 8 (39:15):
That's not happening to the world Jams. Okay done tonight, Cleveland, Okay?
Speaker 2 (39:20):
In their house, the Calves are only five point underdogs here, Todd.
Speaker 8 (39:25):
I don't care about that.
Speaker 7 (39:26):
I know that the Celtics will finish with at least
one more point than the Cavaliers.
Speaker 8 (39:29):
When the game's over.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Tonight, man, you can give a pregame speech. Let's go,
Who's with me, Let's end that undefeated season. I am
in control of this vehicle. You you don't need any
extra motivation. We're going to hand them their first loss.
Speaker 8 (39:46):
Not coming on top.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
One more point than they do.
Speaker 8 (39:48):
Let's streak ends tonight on our floor.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Who's the end?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
All right? Two hours in the books, who's with me? Hours? Three?
Speaker 5 (40:00):
Come on, let's go, let's go.
Speaker 2 (40:01):
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Historically bad. Welcome to the program. The Dallas Cowboys. Dallas
Cowboys dominated once again, giving up over thirty seven points

one eighty seven to sixty nine at home this season.
And to give you context, the last team to be
outscored by more points through the first five home games,
(00:26):

You have today the Cabs at the Celtics tonight the
Celtics favored by five against the undefeated Cleveland Cavaliers. Back
to the Texans handling the Cowboys thirty four to ten.
Texans now seven and four, the Cowboys drop two, three
and seven eight seven seven three DP show email address
(01:29):
depat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show. The
Ravens have a situation, and it's a situation. I never
thought that we would be addressing. Justin Tucker has not
been good and you can make a case he might
be recognized as the greatest kicker in NFL history. Certainly
with accuracy, but not with big kicks. Nobody is better
(01:51):
than Adam Vinti in winning big games, but Justin Tucker consistency.
But now we have an issue. We say good morning.
If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for downloading the app.
Our radio affiliates around the country, your phone calls coming
up as well. So John Harbaugh met with the media
and he was asked about Justin Tucker, who has struggled
this year, struggled mightily, and not just long kicks. He's
(02:14):
struggling with extra points, short kicks. And he was asked
about do you bring in some competition at the kicking position.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
No, there's no thought to that. I mean, you have
to find that competition first. Just if you're going to
be blunt about it, you know, where is that competition?
That would be one thing. And the best option right
now is to get Justin you know, back on point
where he's because he's fully capable of doing it. Certainly
haven't lost any confidence in Justin Tucker. You know, you
saw that on the fifty four yarder we sent him
(02:45):
out for and he drilled it. So that's the Justin
Tucker that he wants to see, that we all want
to see on every kick, and he's definitely our best option.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Paul, do you have Justin Tucker's numbers there this season?
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Like you said, from under forty, he's still spotless like
he's always been his entire career. But if you go
back ten years ago, he kind of broke out. In
twenty sixteen, he was ten of ten from fifty plus,
which put him on the map first team All Pro.
Last year he was one of five from fifty plus,
so this is not kind of new. And this year
he's three of seven from fifty plus, which was his thing.
(03:22):
They used to say, like if they get into the
thirty eight yard line. The Ravens are set and now
that's no longer.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
The case, and it's hard to make a name for
yourself as a kicker, and a lot of times, you know,
you live in infamy of oh that's the kicker who
you know. Go back to garrow Yepremian who played for
the Dolphins and they played the Redskins then Redskins in
the Super Bowl and he tried to throw a pass
(03:48):
Mike Bass ended up picking it off, taking it back.
I think the final score was fourteen to seven. But
you remember him for things like that. Scott Norwood, you
remember him for the miss, but being a quarter of
being a kicker and being remembered in a positive way.
Like Adam Vinti. I don't know what his regular season
numbers are were. I just know game on the line,
(04:11):
that's the guy I wanted to kick. Mark Moseley is remembered.
He's a kicker. He won the MVP I think that
was maybe nineteen eighty two with the then Redskins because
they were the highest scoring team and they gave it
to a kicker. It's really hard to stand out, and
it feels like in today's NFL, everybody's making well, you
(04:32):
had a sixty four yarder last night taken off the board,
by the way, But it just seems like they've gotten
to a point where it's too easy, and now you've
got Justin Tucker. It's not too easy. And you'll have
players who talk about, you know, the yips. We've seen
the yips in baseball where Chuck Naublock can't throw it
(04:52):
at the first base, or Steve Sachs can't do it,
or Mackie Sassler can't throw it back to the pitcher.
Golfers talk about that as well, the yips. I don't
know if kickers have the yips, but certainly seems like
that with Justin Tucker.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
Yes, Paulin, Well, what's interesting about Justin Tucker is he's
been around a while, but he's thirty five years old,
which really isn't old for a kicker. To put it
in perspective, you talk about Adam vina Teri. Vinitaria played
till age forty seven. Thirty five was the exact midway
point in his career. He made three more Pro Bowls
after thirty five. He did not fade as a deep
kicker until the very very end for him.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Yeah, and maybe your range is a little more limited
the older you get, which is understandable. But are you
better in those pressure situations when hey, we need you
to make this forty seven yarder game on the line.
But the fact that we would even be or the
media even bringing that up of would you bring in
somebody is certainly pretty telling. By the way, the over
(05:52):
under I've been running down some of these, the over
under the Kansas City Chiefs right now fourteen and a half,
over under fourteen and a half, the Bills twelve and
a half, the Lions thirteen and a half right now,
and Buffalo has a couple of tough games coming up,
including playing the Lions and playing the Niners. Kansas City
(06:14):
a couple of games, but I don't look at it
as really that formidable, And I think they'll probably lose
one more game, so they'd have three and then do
the Bills lose two? The Lions one loss right now,
so they're expecting them to lose a few more here.
But it feels like Lions are and look, they haven't
(06:35):
really separated from the Eagles. But if you want to
host the NFC title game, this is where you know,
these games against teams that aren't very good or maybe
they're not playing for anything. Those are sometimes dangerous games
because you ease up on them you don't think they're
playing for anything, and then all of a sudden, somebody
gets squirrely and then you end up losing a game.
(06:56):
Poll question for hour two Seaton, what are you thinking about?
Speaker 5 (06:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Up date you on our one here.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Uh we put up there the best bad team we
had the Dolphins, Bengals, Colts, Buccaneers. Okay right now with
sixty four percent of the votes and I even really
close the Bengals. Second place though, was more interesting between
the Dolphins, Colts and Buccaneers. The Buccaneers have twenty percent
of the vote.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
How about that.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Nobody believes in the Colts.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Yeah, but they're still in a playoff hunt, which is
weird in the AFC. It's like, you know, the Colts
and the Broncos, and it feels like the Broncos are
a lot better than the Colts, but they're kind of
both just hanging in there. Yes, PAULI, oh, yes, Ton, Yeah.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
The Colts I think are in the eighth spot at
five and six, just one game behind Denver for that
last spot in the seventh position?
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Are you buying in to the Broncos?
Speaker 8 (07:53):
I am buying into the Broncos.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Okay, sounds like you're more leasing the Broncos than buying.
I don't that's you're not buying.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
They got a tough schedule yet, and they got to
finish off with the Chiefs the last game of the year,
so they got to go four and two.
Speaker 9 (08:06):
Cheese will be uh, it'll be third Street quarterback.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
I don't know that's the case that they That sounds
more like a rent to own situation than buying in.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
But yeah, the face to Broncos play Bottle of the Balls. No,
we're not doing that, No, not anymore. Remember when we
did flinch Ball and Ron Burgundy. Ron Burgundy came in
and Fritzy I think got him right in the sack
(08:39):
of y awesome. Yes, it was its great and he
didn't even flinch. Ron Burgundy did even flinch there. All right,
some phone calls coming up. Let's again, Matt Weiner will
join us as well. So the pole question for hour
two is going to be what Seaton we got another
one here from? Uh, We've got one actually here from
Paul Career. I'd rather have Justin Tucker Tony Romo. Interesting,
(09:06):
Paul came out of nowhere.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
Well, let's think about Justin Tucker's career. He's pretty famous
for a kicker. He's definitely well paid. He's the highest
paid kicker of all time, and he's going to the
Hall of Fame, which is really tough to do at
that position. Or you could be a position player, a quarterback.
But Tony Romo had a good career, somewhat unsatisfied or unfulfilled,
but he played quarterback. He's not in danger of going
(09:30):
to the Hall of Fame. You've had a very good career.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Whose career would you want, right, Todd, Justin Tucker or
Tony Romo At that old question, I'm going to go
Tony Romo, all right, eight seaton.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
I'm going to say Justin Tucker all day, actually all day.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
But we're not factoring in that he's making eighteen million
dollars a year from CBS. No, this is just your
playing career.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Playing career and playing pay, which surprisingly Justin Tucker is
not far off from Tony Romo in playing pay.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Okay, but but not post career correct factoring then, Okay, Marvin,
Tony Romo Justin Tucker.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
Well, since we're leaving out the CBS career Justin Tucker.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Yal Paul, it feels like you're going Justin Tucker. This
is why you brought up the pole question.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Yeah, it's it's kind of close though, because you want
to be a starting quarterback who goes to some Pro
Bowls as opposed to a kicker that's a specialist. But
Tucker's going to the Hall of Fame. He'll he'll be
remembered positively. Okay, bonus coverage. Anyone want to play the
Justin Tucker career salary game?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
But I would take the Justin Tucker career over Tony Romo. Uh,
how about Justin Tucker Philip Rivers, Philip River? Todd, you
hate Philip Rivers.
Speaker 8 (10:50):
Justin Tucker.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
I'll take Romo, but for switching it that way, I
will go Justin Tucker over Philip River.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
What about Justin Tucker over Matt Ryan? Oh dude, good,
that's toughee, Todd said.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
Matt Ryan is a career, all career salary guy though.
Oh yeah, he did very well for himself.
Speaker 8 (11:14):
Yes, yes, I'm gonna go Justin Tucker there.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
All right? Seaton Justin Tucker, Mett Ryan.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
You know, I don't know that I could live my
whole life.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
With that Super Bowl explaining twenty eight to three.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
I mean, you know, like like with Tony Romo, it
was kind of like, well, his most famous play is
fumbling a snap. I don't want to do that, you know,
but I think Justin Tucker.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
All right, Marv, Justin Tucker, Paul, Matt Ryan, Justin Tucker.
Speaker 9 (11:56):
This is tough.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Ryan's got an MVP Pro Bowls money. But I can't
choose like Seaton to choose that pain. Tucker's got a
Super Bowl ring. I'm going Justin Tucker.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna go Justin Tucker, because you know when
you walk in the room that eventually somebody's gonna say
something about twenty eight to three or you know, hey,
what time is it, Oh it's twenty eight to three.
Speaker 9 (12:22):
Oh god, you know.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Matt Ryan should be allowed to punch one person a year,
Like there should be some type of disclaimer or hall
pass where if one person walks up to Matt he's
a big dude. He should be allowed to drop one
dude a year who says that stuff, and.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
It should be one of the coaches from the Falcons team.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Wowhan wasn't mad at fault? Come here, Kyle, I gotta
punch you again. This year.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
Matt Ryan at one point made almost in a year.
Justin Tucker's career salary.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Oh well, okay, career salary, Justin Tucker.
Speaker 10 (13:06):
Let's go salbary salary, salary, salary, salary, salary, salary, salary salary.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Okay, Justin Tucker, Sodd, I got to parts. I got
to give you some hints here, just to put in perspective.
Justin Tucker's been in the league since two thousand and twelve.
He's been there a long time. So we're gonna go
up to this point because he has three years remaining
on his contract, but there's out after this year for
(13:56):
the Bravens.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
By the way, thanks all right, Todd. Justin Tucker career salary.
Speaker 8 (14:02):
Forty eight point eight three million.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I like that Seaton. I already know what it is.
Oh okay, Marvin.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
Fifty two point five million, m man.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Okay, I'm gonna go forty nine to nine Justin Tucker.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
I mean I made it a slide rule or calculator
because Dan and Marvin are really tight. Fifty one million
seventy three thousand so far.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Okay, you guys are right in between it. Yeah, okay,
checking we'll share the victory.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
He does have four million a year coming the next
three years, but the Ravens can get out of it unfortunately.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Okay, let me take a break. We'll get phone calls
coming up, Matt Liiner, we'll join us on loan from Fox.
We'll get to your phone calls eight seven seven three

He is the co host of Throwbacks Podcast, one of

now part of the Fox Sports Big Noon Kickoff. But
he's joining us on behalf of Abbott sharing more about
the We Give Blood Drive and in conjunction with the
Big Ten, we'll have Matt explain that coming up in
a moment. Good to see you again. How do you
(15:35):
think your career would be different, if any if you
came out now as opposed to when you did.
Speaker 11 (15:41):
That's a great question. I probably wouldn't have get drafted.
I wouldn't have got drafted Dan because I couldn't fit
in the style of offenses that are played now. So
it's a different world of football, and I see it
at the lowest levels from flag football, youth tackle football.
I'm watching my son play high school football, who just
committed to SMU in the last couple weeks. Was pretty cool.
(16:03):
So the game has really shifted from just from my
personal style of play. I think probably I would have
been okay, but you know, you got to be able
to move, you got to be able to do a
lot of other things in this day and age of football,
which was something that I was very limited in. Maybe
I would have pitched in baseball probably, But.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Are the days of the drop back passer gone or
kind of becoming extinct.
Speaker 11 (16:31):
It's a good question. I mean, look, I'm still maybe
this is just the traditional I'm still a believer that
you have to win from the pocket. You have to
win from between the tackles. You have to be able to,
you know, pick up or be able to throw when
you're getting blits inside it, take those hits. I don't
think you can run around and just make plays. All
that being said, a lot of these guys now and
(16:54):
obviously Mahomes is a great example, like can do that,
but they can also do more, you know, and that
was that was the biggest difference I think. I think
if you're looking at today's age, you know, you look
at someone like Aaron Rodgers, who obviously is at the
tail end of his career and never was considered a
statue in the pocket, but he would run when he
had to, and he was a great athlete. He might
(17:15):
be like the last of the guys that just would
really prefer to stay in there and throw from the pocket.
But that's how you win a lot of games. So
it is interesting that that position is just completely evolved
and changed over the last decade, and you're seeing it
played at a very very high level. It's just different
than what we're used to. You know, there's no more
(17:35):
under center play action. Really. Jared Goff, you know, Jared
Goff is a person that I look at and is
like he's he's kind of one of those like last
of the Mohicans who is not going to run. He's
gonna make his living from the pocket. But he's got
that system around him and the way they're doing it,
so it's it's interesting the way it's evolved into what
it is.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
And Matthew Stafford you could throw him in there. It's
how people have fallen in love with Matthew Stafford almost overnight.
Like what you have these younger quarterbacks there, they look
up to him.
Speaker 10 (18:05):
C J.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Stroud and Caleb Williams are like, man, I love Matthew Stafford.
What is it about Stafford? Now he was great against
the Patriots, you know, four touchdown passes, But what is
it about Stafford though that maybe is different than these
maybe pocket quarterbacks.
Speaker 11 (18:22):
He It's such a great question because I feel like
he's maybe the one of the most underrated quarterbacks that
we've seen in the last fifteen twenty years, at least
since he's playing. I mean, he's the number one pick
out of Georgia. Was was I don't want to say
stuck in Detroit, but was in Detroit for most of
his careers, so one games but never really you know,
the playoffs and all that. But the dude is the toughest,
(18:44):
one of the toughest players you ever meet. He just,
you know, I think he's one of those guys like
he has elite arm strength, he moves, he has all
of those traits and like, I don't know, it's like,
you know, it's one of those guys that all these
young kids are like, oh, we love Stafford. And I
think it's like I think it's his toughness. I think
it's the longevity. I think it's all of these things.
(19:05):
I don't think people realize, like he took a beating
in Detroit. You know, you have some of those highlights
where he's playing with like like like he is just
one of those dudes that is like it should be
in the Hall of Fame, Like I hope he's won
a super Bowl and he's still playing. Yeah, I think
so too, and he's he's still playing at a high level.
And it's interesting because in that generation, you know, you
(19:26):
look at kind of like obviously Brady, and then you
look at like Manning's and all of those guys, Breese
and you know, guys that I early in micro I
played with and kind of look up to because that
was what the quarterbacks looked like. Roethlisberger was was a
little bit of a different type of player, uh when
he was playing. But Stafford has kind of just like
stood the test of time, you know, part of that,
(19:47):
but also part of this new generation of players. And
I think he's just really when he went to LA
he really started to gain the respect of his peers,
I think, you know. And that's why a lot of
these guys like to emulate their game after him.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
If I said you could pick, you can be Josh
Allen or Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 11 (20:07):
I mean, I mean Patty, I'd be Patty Mahomes. Give
me a couple of rings, Dan, Come on, you remember
we lost it. We lost to the Steelers in the
Super Bowl. Man san Antonio Holmes or outside I would
have had I would have had a ring as a
backup quarterback, which had been fantastic. But you know what
I love, I don't.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I mean, you nervous about getting in the Super Bowl
if you want to hear it?
Speaker 11 (20:29):
Okay, So Dan, you want to hear great stories. So
we're we're in that Super Bowl, right, which was a
great one, and we score, uh, Kurt throws a little
in row and Larry splits the safetyes right runs for
like seventy yards. We go up with a couple of
minutes left. Ben just marches down. He throws that incredible
throw to San Antonio Holmes in the back of the
end zone. There was I don't know, say thirty seconds.
(20:51):
There was enough time for us to maybe move and
I think I think we needed a touchdown to win.
Kurt got I think on one play Kurt got hurt
his shoulder on like a sack and there was still
time left, and I don't it. Basically, what was going
to happen is if it was an incomplete plais or
whatever the clock stopped. I was going in on the
last play to throw a damn hell Mary to try
(21:14):
to win the super because he couldn't throw he like
he bangushed. I think Lamar Woodley got him or something
on the outside. So I'm sitting there. I think Todd
Haley was the OC at the time, and I'm like,
oh my god, I'm certain to warm Up'm about to
have to throw a fifty five yard ball to win
the game. Could you imagine if that would have happened
and they got a touchdown but you didn't, I'd be
(21:35):
going to Disneyland. Yeah No, I didn't get in. It
was incredible though, man, that was yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
But you know, no warm up, Like it's not like
they let you go to the bullpen like you're trying
to loosen up your arm. You're on the sidelines.
Speaker 11 (21:47):
You know, in that moment adrenaline, I probably would have
chucked at sixty yards for sure. Any other day, you know,
probably not, but that one, just going out there and
to heave it, I would have got it there for sure.
It was about a fifty five yard throw which I
could have handled.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
He's Matt Liiner and you can see him. The Fox
Sports Big Noon Kickoff, you got Indiana and Ohio State.
Now Ohio State. There's been some kind of blowback on
why are we always playing these neon games? Now, I
understand pre game, right into the game, does Ohio State
have a legitimate beef that maybe they should play later
(22:24):
in the afternoon or in the evening.
Speaker 11 (22:26):
Well, I mean you got to remember too the you
know again, this is above my pay grade.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
I know.
Speaker 11 (22:31):
The last couple of weeks and getting a lot of
the fans have been upset essentially because it, in their eyes,
gives their team an advantage, whether it's the wide alpen state,
which I get as a as a college football fan
as well. You know, Fox in the Big Neon strategy
started a handful of years ago to own that window
and to be the big game in the morning when
(22:52):
we all wake up and we sit on the couch
for twelve hours to watch college football. And it's been
a great It's been great for Fox, I think, I
think it has been overall a great for fans in
college football because you're getting a big, big ten game
or whatever it is in that in that slot for
us as big new kickoff. You know, we we go
where we go and the shows and we try to
(23:12):
promote and give a great show and give the fans
what they want. So some of that is a lot
of that is out of my control personally, in our
out of our control as a show. But the games
have been great. I think Gus, Joel and Jenny on
on the game side do it a tremendous job. Are
the best in college football in my opinion, and we
just kind of we kind of we kind of do
(23:33):
what we don't so so I can understand when fans
are upset and they want all day and they want
the night game and all that, but it is what
it is and and it's worked for us.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
If I said that we were going to play backyard football,
big newon kickoff versus game day?
Speaker 11 (23:50):
Why are you trying to stir the pot?
Speaker 10 (23:51):
Dan?
Speaker 11 (23:51):
Come on? Those are those are my listen? I would
say a game day. Game day is the staple of
college football. They've been doing it for a long long time.
Those guys over there.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Is talking flag football, flag football.
Speaker 11 (24:07):
Oh oh, we're a lot younger than those guys. Remember
we got you know, we got mark Ingram who just
who could still play? I just hand the ball off
to him, and I'm not sure anybody anybody over there
is Mark. We want to play tackle football. I'm sure
you know McAfee would want to play tackle football too.
He's he's a little crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
But okay, but but are you starting over Brady Quinn?
Speaker 11 (24:30):
You know what, I'll play receiver. That's fine. Actually, actually
I got two new hips, Dan, so I don't know
if I could be playing receiver. Probably I'll be Bok
Brady at tight end. No one's getting in front of
that train either. Hey guess what, Dan, real quick, real quick.
I want to say this because last time I saw you,
I think me and Jerry were on the show Farra
(24:50):
for throwbacks. We got a big, big shooting competition today basketball.
We've been talking a lot of smack online. I just
want to let you know we're going to be at
USC later. A little three point shot. Who you got man?
Who you think is winning that one? Thank you? I
appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
Thank you.
Speaker 11 (25:09):
That's all I just wanted to I told Jerry to
turn on the show the morning to watch, so I
give him. I give him a little plug.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Explain how you got Kobe's jersey over your shoulder?
Speaker 11 (25:22):
So great question. So Kobe my all time favorite athlete.
I met Kobe in Newport Beach. It's where he lived
and we had a mutual friend. So I met him
years and years and years ago, actually met him when
I was at USC and all those things, but I
really got to know him outside of that world at
(25:42):
like barbecues down in Newport all these things just on
a different level and became, you know, some somewhat friends,
you know, when I saw him and all those things,
and I just I asked for I was like, hey,
would you sign this whatever? And then that's how I
got that, and then it's you know, obviously when he
passed away, I had seen him. My son, my oldest son,
(26:05):
plays basketball too, as well as football. And we were
playing in the Made Hoops Tournament, which is the circuit
all around the West Coast, and Kobe was coaching his
daughter and that team in the same circuit on the
girl side, and we had seen him earlier in that
month of January at the Mamba Academy over down in
(26:26):
Thousand Oaks for that weekend. It's a weekend of basketball,
and then you play a couple weekends later, a couple
weekends later, and I'll like, I've had that jersey for years.
I'll just never forget. We were talking for probably twenty minutes.
He had seen Cole. He's like, damn, Cole, you've grown.
Like Cole was already like six feet in seventh grade
or something like that. We were watching him coach his
(26:49):
daughter and the girls team right there, and then a
couple of weeks later, obviously the tragedy happened, but also too,
I you know, I know Vanessa fairly well and his
her daughter, the youngest ones play in our flag football
leagues down in Orange County, which is which has been
pretty awesome to have them a part of that too.
So Toby my all time favorite athlete. I got a
(27:12):
chance to know him and obviously we miss him and
everybody misses him.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Tell me what you're doing with Abbot the we give
blood drive in conjunction with the Big Ten.
Speaker 11 (27:21):
Yeah, so this is this is really incredible what Abbot
is doing. So they've partnered with all of the Big
ten schools basically to launch a competition to see who
can donate the most blood and and the school who
donates the most blood gets a million dollars to an
advanced student or health community help. So there's a big
incentive for people to go out there and not only
(27:42):
just support your school and whatever school that may be,
but also to give blood and donate. We have a severe,
severe blood shortage in this country and millions of people
impacted by that. So it's it's just a really cool
campaign and a competition to get people out there to don't.
You can go to Big ten, Big ten dot org,
(28:03):
backslash Abbot to pick a location, you donate blood, you
upload your proof of donation, which is really important out
there are who are listening, and you pick your school
and it's as simple as that and the winner will
be announced. But the Big ten Championship came December seventh,
So Abbat's doing an incredible job with this and again,
as I said, the blood shortage is real in this country,
so I encourage everybody. I'm actually giving blood this Friday
(28:26):
up in Ohio. State will be out in Columbus for
the game, So I'm gonna I'm gonna do that Friday.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Give me sixty seconds on the state of USC football.
Speaker 11 (28:36):
I'm gonna need about two hours, but in sixty seconds.
In sixty seconds, we are. And I say we obviously
because I'm a Trojan, but I'm a fan. I want
to see my school do well. It's a challenging spot
right now. You know, the expectation is really high at USC.
Lincoln came in three years ago. This is third year
(28:58):
and almost went to a college football playoff, right which
was a great year. We fell short in the Pack
Pactfeld Championship Game, and then it's sort of tailed off
over the last couple of years. And we knew going
into this year, the first year of the Big Ten,
it's gonna be a challenge and a lot of new
pieces on the team, and it hasn't been this season.
I think he would want, the team would want, and
the USC fan base, and I would just say, big picture,
(29:20):
you know like he knows, he knows what he needs
to do. He knows what the expectation is at USC
and and I believe with Nil and believe with the
talent in Southern California that there is there there's no
excuse not to be able to build a championship team.
And I think he knows that. So listen, the pulse
is it's it's tough. There's a lot of people, a
lot of fans that are frustrated, and you know, the
(29:44):
Mancha Kan is like it's the same thing week in
and week out, and then that just needs to be changed.
And I'm not I'm not saying anything anybody doesn't know
but us. He needs to get better. It's playing and simple.
They have a chance to beat UCLA this week, they
have a chance to play Notre Dame next week and
maybe knock them out of the playoffs. So there's still
stuff to play for and it kind of create some
(30:04):
excitement going into next year.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
The best team in college football is the best team, he.
Speaker 11 (30:11):
Said, yeah, I'd say Oregon. I know they're number one,
but I just I you know, in the knock with
them is like I think it's still like the perception
of maybe what they've been in the past, like a
lot of speed, but don't have this like this is
not that, Like Dan Lanning is a real dude. Like
Dan Lanning is an SEC coach. Dan Lanning has built
(30:33):
a team like that they can play with anybody up front,
and they have the speed to play with anybody like
in Ohio State and some of these these teams that
have tremendous talent on the outside. And Dylan Gabriels, I mean, gosh,
he's played a lot of football and he's won a
lot of games. So I think Oregon is is for
sure number one, but it is very This year is
(30:53):
fantastic because you have, honestly, like I think you have
seven or eight teams like Ole Miss could win the
national champampionship. Georgia even though they've been up and down,
could win, Bama can win, Texas can win. Ohio State, Oregon,
Penn State for that matter, might have it like you.
Just like honestly, I think anybody could beat anybody right now,
which is great.

Calves are getting five tonight against the Celtics. Cabs are
fifteen to oh Celtics are eleven and three. The odds
on favorite to have the most points tonight is Jason
Tatum than Donovan Mitchell. Here's one for you. Jazz are
getting eleven against the Lakers. Lebron James over under twenty
three and a half. Let's see how about Pelicans are
(32:20):
getting twelve against the Mavericks over under Luca twenty seven
and a half. He's gone over this number in six
of his last nine games. I think I'm officially getting old.
Like I can embrace it that I'm officially old.
Speaker 9 (32:37):
What's the typical thing.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
I got into a conversation yesterday last night with a
Mets fan, a good friend of mine, and he's saying,
why are you down on loan Soto? I said, I
just don't want to spend seven hundred million dollars on
Lon Soto. He's like, why, this is just monopoly money.
I said, well, I don't know. Maybe it's just the
principle of show. He tawny six hundred million dollars and
(33:03):
at least he gives you worldwide recognition. He can pitch,
he can hit, he's a great player, he steals bases,
all these things. One Soto is probably going to get
seven hundred million dollars. And then you realize that at
some point over the next couple of years, Luka Doncic
is going to make ninety million dollars a year, maybe more,
(33:25):
maybe a hundred million at some point. And I guess
I'm just caught up in these salaries where I go, gosh, that,
what do you get for that kind of money?
Speaker 11 (33:34):
Number?
Speaker 2 (33:35):
Fifty million dollars for a quarterback? You're like, oh my god,
now all of a sudden, you don't even blink. And
I'm still caught up in decades ago, where you're going,
you're gonna spend that much money on a baseball player
for that amount of time. And my point was, nobody
is going to watch one. You're not saying, kids, we're
going to the game because we got to see one, Soda,
(33:58):
You're not. Now you might have said that about Mike
Trout or Albert Poohol's Aaron Judge, Clayton Kershaw back in
the day, Paul's scheme, Like, there's certain players I just
Bryce Harper, there's certain players where you go, you know
what they're worth that extra money because they bring you
to the ballpark. I just said, I just don't get
(34:18):
it with with Sodo, just don't get it. But I'm
in the minority there and I'll probably stated that I
call him. I didn't call him Luis Soto. I'll be
Luis Soho. But it was one so okay. So I
officially realized that I was old last night because I'm
complaining about salaries here. But Luca, he's going to be
(34:42):
a ninety million Shay Gilgess, Alexander, these guys are going
to make ninety million dollars a year pretty soon. Score

Speaker 9 (35:07):
Let me explain.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
Unlike in or Out, which is tomorrow's white hot segment,
this is a little more declarative, like done done means
that team can't make the playoffs and.
Speaker 9 (35:16):
Back end means they're in it. They're still in the mix.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
Ready, okay, well, curveball here b Yu football.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I have to look at I'd have to do some
homework on that of who they play and what happened
has to happen before.
Speaker 9 (35:31):
We don't prep for these segments.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Yeah, oh wow, Okay, done done. I'm gonna say done done.
They're done, done done.
Speaker 9 (35:41):
Anybody still love the Kougs.
Speaker 8 (35:43):

in the mix.
Speaker 9 (35:45):
Shockingly, Fritzy still loves the cos.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
Yeah, here you go, here we go. They were on
the list last week. The Cincinnati Bengals after another loss.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
Done done, I'm out out, like I'm done, done out out.
Speaker 9 (36:00):
Even though they have this fantastic offense.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
I know, I know, but I just it feels like
every week we say this and I'm going to say
that I'm done done.
Speaker 6 (36:10):
I think I was out out on them in like
week here, how you were? But were you done done
on week three?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Okay?
Speaker 6 (36:17):
Well, is there a difference between out out and done?
Speaker 2 (36:19):
Done? Out out?
Speaker 9 (36:20):
As me?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Done done?
Speaker 5 (36:21):
Is them?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Right?
Speaker 4 (36:22):
This game allows you to be out out in week
three and jump back in in week eleven. That's why
this game is perfect for flip floppers like us.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
But he could be back in and then be done done.
So he could come back in and be done done.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
How about the five and six Indianapolis Colts. A sudden
breath of fresh air at quarterback? Who's back in?
Speaker 2 (36:46):
I am?
Speaker 5 (36:47):
I'm in?
Speaker 2 (36:48):
I mean I'm back in as a casual in by me?
I am back in.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
I'm out out or done done with them? I think
this is a fakelip. Okay, here we go. The Dallas
Cowboys at their record is awful. Their their record is
three and seven, they lost five in a row. Okay,
everyone's done to high.
Speaker 6 (37:11):
Yeah, I mean, is there anything to be not done
with them?
Speaker 2 (37:17):
What would you be back in for? I don't know,
except for more did.
Speaker 9 (37:22):
They were on the sheet? The guys in back way?
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Thank you, sir? May I have another. I'm back in.
Speaker 4 (37:28):
Okay, done done, back in on the entire NFC South.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
I'm still with Kirk d Cousins. I'm I'm I'm in.
I'm back in on the Falcons.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
The Falcons have lost two in a row, the Bucks
have lost four in a row. The bad teams quote unquote,
the Saints have won too in a row, and the
Panthers weirdly have won.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
In Oh, Okay, Okay, here we go.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
This is the biggie, the San Francisco forty nine ers.
They are five and five. They're in last place in
the NFC West, but they are the best scoring team
in the NAFTY West.
Speaker 7 (38:05):
Todd, that division is up for grabs, so I can't
be out out and I'm still with them, Still with
the mon.
Speaker 9 (38:11):
It's not an option.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
It's done done Seaton.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
Uh, I forget what the option is, but the opposite
of done done, I'm definitely not done done with them.

You're back in, Okay, I'm back in. Yeah, all right, Marvin,
I was always in. Yeah, that's right, cheer team. I'm
back in. I'm they're lingering. I think all you gotta
do is linger in the west.

Last one, since we can't put them in, uh in
or out tomorrow. The Cavaliers winning streak. If you're done done,
you think it's done. If you're back in, we're gonna
shoehorn that into You think they're gonna beat the Celtics tonight?

the Calves their first loss at t D Garden and
the streak ends tonight.
Speaker 8 (39:05):
Boston Beast Cleveland.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Oh oh see. You think they'll be motivated.
Speaker 7 (39:08):
I think they'll be extra motivated when there's a little
something extra early the season. Who cares, but the team's
coming onto our court trying to stay undefeated.
Speaker 8 (39:15):
That's not happening to the world Jams. Okay done tonight, Cleveland, Okay?
Speaker 2 (39:20):
In their house, the Calves are only five point underdogs here, Todd.
Speaker 8 (39:25):
I don't care about that.
Speaker 7 (39:26):
I know that the Celtics will finish with at least
one more point than the Cavaliers.
Speaker 8 (39:29):
When the game's over.
Speaker 2 (39:30):

extra motivation. We're going to hand them their first loss.
