Remember when Thursday Night was almost like a dumping ground
(00:27):
for NFL games, or like, where do we put this
game Thursday Night? Well, this Thursday Night Packers and the Commanders.
It's amazing what money we'll do. Amazon's probably saying we'd
like to invest in Thursday Night, but we're going to
invest a lot of money, and we want you to
give us a good product. It's like the Mothership did
(00:49):
that with Monday Night because they used to get games
that were just kind of like dumped in their lap,
like all right, you guys take this when it's Bear's
and Cardinals and hype it up. Then all of a sudden,
mother Ship paid some more money, and then all of
a sudden you got a better schedule. There. I don't
think it's a coincidence that you're getting some better games
there on Thursday Night, Yes, pauling.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
The rest of the month. Thursday Night Football Week two,
Dolphins at Bills, Seahawks at Cardinals, cools off a little
bit than forty nine Ers at Rams.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Okay, got some rival rivalry, wee games. That's why I
always hated the Red Rifle, the rivalry game rivalry. He
used to be the Red River shootout. Yeah, I did
much easier.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Yeah, red River rivalry. Yeah, who it gets stuck in
the back of your Red River rivalry.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Sunday Night, JJ McCarthy makes his Sunday Night debut. It's
the Vikings hosting Michael Pennix Junior, the Third and the Falcons.
JJ McCarthy, mister Primetime seven Eastern on NBC and Peacock
Mike and Washington leads us off. Good morning, Mike, what's
on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (02:03):
Hey, good morning guys. Are y'all going? I got a
suggestion for Fritzy. Oh okay, okay, what did you guys?
Tally the gongs and at the end of the year,
whoever has the most gongs gets the will of punishment.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Well, nobody else is going to get gonged. On the show, Mike,
it's going to be Todd and I have to be
fair to as as their boss, and i'm human resources here.
You know, the the wheel of punishment kind of bordered
on abusive behavior. I don't know what was what was
the worst wheel of punishment that we handed out cause
(02:42):
you then you get a lightning bolt in the back
of your hair.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Yeah, we had a lightning bolt shaved in the back
of my head, which on sports radio is fun, but
when you're picking up your kids from school.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
You get looks, uh, do you remember Seaton you you
had a couple of bad ones.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
I think with the punishment, I had a bunch. That's
how the pies in the face started. Yeah, we had
a wheel of punishment.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Yeah seem didn't he get like honey and something poured
on him and am like a bag like about bowlful
of honey.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
I was in the Shower of Shame show, and I
don't know if that crossed into which came first wheel
of punishment shower of shame. I'm not exactly sure. I
had numerous of those. I had chili poured on me,
I had honey, I had I think it was like
honey and beach sand or something like that.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I had a lot of those, and I thought, God,
it'd be great to come up with a shower of shame.
And then I actually had the big germ in the
back room. Guys go a weekend built. They they spent
a weekend building a shower of shame, and I was
so proud of it, and I thought, at no point
did I think, you know, is this really fair to
the dan Ns. All I cared about was content, Yes,
(03:52):
Ton And as you mentioned, if you take.
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Those behavior in the workforce training classes, you know we
probably broke about seventy three of those based on the
showers of Shame and Wheels of punishment.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Yeah, you know, we don't get to hear Wheel of
Punishment anymore, Marvin.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
It's pretty iconic, r ip Odoris. It's still my most
favorite thing that we've done on the show. And the
fact that that was included on the Italian version of
the album.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
That song, Marvin, I think it was do we have
Wheel of Punishment? It's good? Yeah, yes, Marvin.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
That's the first time I'd ever heard of that theme song.
You were looking at me like, Marvin, I was like.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Dan, you missed the Wheel of Punishment era did, Oh,
that's right, We've been doing this a long time. Yeah, Paul, didn't.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
We try with management to call it the wheel of
punishment and they still didn't say that was cool.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
I don't remember because there was a movement from the
back row, specifically Andrew Pearlough, to say, what if we
made the wheel of punishment more like fun things, like
a reward to do? Yeah, and we tried to turn
it into the wheel of punishment. However, there was zero
support behind that because who wants to like, Hey, all right,
wheel punishment, you get hit in the face of the
pie or.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
No, hey, you get to eat your favorite pie. That's great.
Why don't we do that? You get to plan the
menu for me Friday?
Speaker 4 (05:21):
It's the wheels so much fun.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Well, that wasn't as bad as Fritzy with the suggestion box,
the anonymous suggestion box. And I said, Todd, you're the
only one who's going to put in suggestions. And I
know you're handwriting, but I was going to.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
Cut things out of a magazine like when those Cereal trailers.
I wouldn't have to write anything.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Uh, And I'd be honest with me. Did you go
behind my back to management? Okay?
Speaker 8 (05:47):
That I would never do.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
Okay, And if I even thought about that, I'd say, Dan,
I just want to give you the heads up. I'm
contacting human resources, but a few things going on around
here that I don't like.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
But there were some things you didn't like because you
came up with these I did, and I.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Don't know how to handle that at a professional adult fashion.
So I'm like, maybe in a passive aggressive way, I
could put my beefs in like a little note and
then you could read it at your leisure, and then.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Only do you have Todd's original email that he sent around.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Of course I did, okay. Quote everyone has issues at
their workplace. They wish they had the courage to some
way verbalize or communicate their anger and frustration. Could be
funny to incorporate this on air, Okay.
Speaker 6 (06:24):
I must have been going through a particularly you know
where I got particularly beat up over a stretch of
time where I'm like, everyone has their like limits in
the line, and you know something was being crossed at
that point.
Speaker 8 (06:34):
Out you know what I got to do? The suggestion box.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
We've come a long way from the suggestion box. I'll
tell you that. Yeah, we could bring it back Todd
if you want it.
Speaker 8 (06:44):
I don't think I've actually put anything in it. We
never really had.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
We never went forward with them because I told you
we weren't going to do it, because I would know
it was from you. Yes, it wouldn't be anonymous. You'd
be the only guy who would put it in.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
Somehow, I realized right at that moment, you know what, Yeah,
that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 8 (06:58):
They'll totally know it's me.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Is the email is so old it was sent from
a BlackBerry?
Speaker 8 (07:04):
Yeah, BlackBerry.
Speaker 6 (07:05):
I was so afraid to get rid of my BlackBerry
until the company said we will not. You will not
be able to receive any emails on BlackBerry.
Speaker 8 (07:11):
You've got to get it.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Apple Andrew in Atlanta, Hi Andrew, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (07:16):
Good morning, DP and D nuts.
Speaker 10 (07:19):
The worst heel of punishment has.
Speaker 9 (07:21):
To be Nickelovin eating the fries off the lady's plate
without wish. That was terrible.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Uh okay. I came up with the idea and McLevin
lost a bet and he was going to be a
waiter and he was going to be downstairs. So we
were above a bar and he was going to go downstairs,
and he was acting as if he worked at the restaurant.
He walked over to these two girls who were sitting
(07:48):
there and he grabbed He's want to know how they
were doing. And then he grabbed on the fries and
dipped it in can and we had cameras hidden and
these women that the look on their faces was awesome
and uh, probably I probably crossed the line maybe with
(08:11):
that one.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yes, PAULI see and I were stationed at the next
table over with a hidden camera and then mcglove was
being very pleasant, how are the meals so far? How
are your lobster rolls great? And then he just grabs
two fries off one of the laces tables, dips them,
eats them and runs and they froze. It was like
a culture shock to them.
Speaker 11 (08:28):
They fascinating.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I know. McLevin was a good sport. Though he did
a lot of fun things. He did not want to
do that. One I was like, no, you got to
do that, mcgleven, you got to do that. One said.
He got a T shirt seven Seas T shirt and
then walked in through the back area and these two
girls and you could just see him there just you know,
(08:52):
chatting it up. He walks by Hey, is everything good? Good, good?
And he grabs the front a good times, good times? Uh,
Tyler in North Dakota, Hi, Tyler, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 9 (09:07):
Hey? Dan six two two twenty, give or take about
ten pounds there it depends in a month, all right.
I think I have an analogy for you guys on Todd.
I love Todd. He's awesome. But Todd reminds me of
my golf game. Holds one through seventeen not good. Good
(09:28):
for the whole eighteen. You get that par or that burden.
You're like, you know what, I can come back for more?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Thank you, Tyler. Yet Todd does not easily discouraged. I
don't think that was a sweet analogy.
Speaker 8 (09:41):
Appreciate.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yeah, I mean you come back, you do. You're like Rocky,
you know, you take some punches, but you're you're standing
in there.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
There's no other option when you crawl under the desk.
And you know, I've tried whining and crying and things
like that, and that never works.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
I know. But I haven't spoken to your wife in
a long time. I haven't had to do that. You
have not, and that's good. We are making progress. We're
having fun. Yep, can you hold on for two and
a half more years.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
You know what I think I can good?
Speaker 7 (10:06):
All right, Yes, marm The funny thing is there's times
where you're telling him to stop and it's joke. You know,
you're playful, and there's other times where you're dead series
and Fritzy still like, it doesn't matter, No, it does
not do what I want to do anyway.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
It does not matter that the advice I've given you
when you've even asked for advice and then you don't
take the advice.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
But you know me, well, it's not meant to be
rude or stubborn or dismissive.
Speaker 8 (10:30):
It's just that's just my way. It's like, I I'm
gonna just do it my way.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
But I appreciate the thought that you had, even though
it's your show and I should be following what you say.
It is the Dead Patrick Show and I'm just one
of the dead nuts. Ultimately, I'm like, Okay, I'll take
everyone's advice and then ultimately I'll make the full decision
on how I'm gonna go about my business.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Yes, yes, Pauline.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Usually in the workplace, when your boss gives you advice,
it's an order, not advice. It's just being characterized as advice.
Speaker 6 (10:54):
I try to hear it as a suggestion, because if
I hear it as like an order, then it's like,
then I'm defensive and you're being bossy, and then I
gotta talk to my wife at dinner about how mean
you're big to me, and that it just opens up
all that.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
That's why you're the boss. It's a weird thing when
your boss's bossy. You're a bossy like that goes along
with being a boss. Yes, like who do you think
you are? You're the boss? Okay. And as I'm telling
you backstage before you went on to sing two hollow
note songs with Darius Rucker, I said, just sing one, okay,
leave them wanting more. No, no, no, I think I'm
(11:29):
gonna do too. And I go okay. I went to
your wife and I said, Jen, he should just do
one song. Well, he's made up his mind. I go, okay.
Because these people came to see Darius, they don't know
who Todd is. He's going to go out there and
start singing and it's not like they're going to go,
oh my god, what a cameo. That's awesome.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
Oh we're going to get discovered and all of a
sudden be on American Isisle or something.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Or but I tried. I tried to tell you, and
then you sang the first one, and I go, just
just close subshot, just close up, and then you started
singing again.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
I think it was.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
Less about that I thought I was such a great singer,
more about like this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
The part of the agreement initially was it.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
Was a song twice in a lifetime, because you sang
two songs and I.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Had been really studying up on making sure I wouldn't
mess up the words, even though they had the words
on a screen in front of me, and when I
was going on walks, I'd listened to those two songs
over and over again. So I felt like, if I
put in all this research and efforts, I should sing
the two songs because I worked so hard in the
week's leading.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
On, and even when I was telling you backstage, so
one of the guys in the band, the drummer, said,
after you did rehearsal, and I got in touch with
him and he said, your boy didn't do very well,
and he said he should do one song. And I said, Okay.
Speaker 6 (12:46):
They just got defensive because during rehearsal, I suggested, and
why don't we try it this way?
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Who's this a booker from the Damn patritsite.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
We've been performing and doing music with Darius for all
these years, and this guy's.
Speaker 8 (12:56):
Gonna tell you.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
You know, when you hit the G string on that
like that, you know when you hit that note, I'm
got the G.
Speaker 11 (13:01):
It's the G cord G coord.
Speaker 8 (13:03):
I think about G strings a lot more than G coorse.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
But I had said to him, like, why don't I go,
like when I go your kisses, oh, when I go, oh,
I'm just trying it out.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
I'll go watching you private. And then when I had eyes,
what you should do? You bring down there? And they
didn't want to know.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
From that, and once again I tried to help you.
The band said, you know what, just one song and uh,
you know he can carry a song a tune. They said,
he just not on on time, and and that was
the problem.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
I still think it should have been todd for its
featuring Darius Ruckett. You're going to put it up on
my board there?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, I know, yes, marm.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
In between the two songs, Darius looks over at you
and I pay off my debt.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Yeah, he I know. That's where I felt bad for him,
because he'd lost a bet with the dolphins, and then
Ty got to sing this.
Speaker 6 (13:54):
The sad thing is I was hoping, at some point,
in some in my sick mind that they were gonna
call me somewhere. They got such a great time review
from you at Bridgeport, would like to see if you'd
come out for a few other dates with us.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, they didn't. They did not, They did not.
Speaker 8 (14:06):
I call you all the time. What can I say?
Speaker 4 (14:13):
I'll don't build a nature dance such superts away.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
No, right, all right, I'm just rop not.
Speaker 8 (14:31):
Listen to enter plants.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I need to tune their instruments. Okay, it's not awful,
it's just off key. But but once again, you have confidence,
maybe too much confidence, and I stopped giving you advice
because it doesn't matter.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
But if you don't overthink it too much on replay it,
you're like that kind of sounds like Dala Hall Johnnes.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
No, it doesn't.
Speaker 8 (14:54):
No, I'm teasing a little bit. I still think in
the shower I exactly like them.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
See, it's you know what you've done way worse. Huh,
You've done way worse.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Yeah, you did.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
There are a few moments there, a little pitchy dog,
but I mean, you're in front of a whole bunch
of people playing with a live band. It's incredibly difficult
to do, and you did really, really well while making
it all so hilarious.
Speaker 6 (15:17):
And the people in the audience, and granted they were
just probably doing that to be nice, but in my mind,
they were really into it, singing along in this way
and back and forth, and I'm like, wow, I'm really
crushing here.
Speaker 8 (15:26):
Look at these every time a light.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
Would go by, and I could pick up a few
rows while I was nervous singing with my hands in
my pocket.
Speaker 8 (15:31):
But I think they're into my deal here.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (15:34):
The smart thing Fritzi did was play songs that people
know is a good sing along. Kiss on my list,
Private Eye. That's a smart thing he did.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Let's take a break. Mark Sanchez will join us on
the program. We're back after this.
Speaker 1 (15:48):

a half. We will take the gambling podcast after the show.
Shan Irving, Bad, Larry and Dylan. We'll have that for

(16:59):
Mark Sanchez, he called the Broncos Week one win over
the Titans. He's got the Seahaunks at the Steelers coming
up at one Eastern Sunday on Fox. Good to see
you again. What's the biggest concern from Week one? Either
player or team or coach than you have.
Speaker 11 (17:18):
Well from our games. Specifically, wait, twenty second could be
a full six to two and a quarter to forty two. Okay,
let's see Broncos game. Woof Bonick struggle. He really did,
and I don't think it's catastrophic. I don't think it's
(17:43):
the end of the world for those guys. But he
just didn't look as sharp as I thought everybody expected,
and the defense bailed him out big time. I've been there.
I know what that feels like. You know, after you
go to the playoffs, your rookie year, coming back that
next year, expectations are just sky high. So we laid
(18:05):
an egg our first game. My second year got sumped
by the Ravens, and it felt like the walls are
closing in sky's falling. Everything's horrible, but at least they
got the win. So I'd rather him learn those lessons
with a w then have to go through all that
film and digest all that with a loss. That would
(18:29):
have been tough at home, that would have been really tough.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Our rookie quarterbacks still making the same mistakes, whether it
was ten years ago, fifteen years ago.
Speaker 11 (18:39):
I think so. I think like in our game specifically,
you know, cam Ward. It's a back and forth game,
defensive battle, and at one point, I want to say,
it was like nine to six or ten to nine
or something like that, and they get this turnover, a
total gift on a muff punt and he takes two sacks,
(19:02):
knocks him out of field goal range. They punt and
you lose the points, You lose the momentum, you get
a chance to go, you know, to go up, take
the lead for the first time in the game. And
it's stuff like that. Like I know, from the booth
it's easy to say, and from here it's easy to say.
But if I was coaching those guys, it might be
(19:25):
one of those situations where you grab him by the
face mask and say, hey, we're inside the thirty. We
do not end this down or end this drive with
anything less than three points. I don't care if you
catch the ball and throw it in the stands three times,
it doesn't matter. We need the points, you know what
I mean. And if you can relate that to a
(19:47):
young kid, because they're just in the moment, feeling the
emotions ceiling. It was interesting talking to Vance Joseph before
the game. The defense coordinator for the Broncos. I think
he's gonna be a head coach by the way pretty
soon again. But he just said, I don't want this
kid to see the ball go in the hoop. I
(20:07):
want to blur the screen with our speed. I want
them to feel our rush. I want to bat balls
at the line of scrimmage. I just don't want them
to get comfortable. I want them to hold it and
just create indecision for that long and we'll do the rest.
It's exactly what they did. And in a situation like that,
all young quarterbacks you screw up. You you try and
(20:30):
do too much. You try and get out of trouble,
and pretty soon you lose fifteen yards. Now we're out
of field goal range. So that was a tough stretch.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
What did you hear in the pocket when you were
back to pass. It's quiet, but there's noise around you,
but your noise.
Speaker 11 (20:51):
Yeah, you don't, Oh, such a good question. You just
get so used to the quiet. It's kind of like
a like a dull roar over the top. The one
thing I will say is what I learned kind of
early on, is if you're at home and sometimes you
(21:13):
get rid of the ball and you throw it, it
leaves your hand and you don't see the guy catch
it because you get hit. So you're laying on your back,
staring at the ceiling or the sky. And if you're
at home and you hear a big cheer, you can
get up slow. If you're at home and you hear it, oh,
you're like, oh boy, I got to make a tackle.
(21:33):
And then it flips on the road. You know, if
you cut that ball loose and you're staring at the
ceiling and the crowd goes nuts, you're like, oh, dude,
I got to go make a tackle.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Have you broken down Aaron Rodgers' performance against the Jets yet?
Speaker 11 (21:48):
WHOA? That was impressive. Well one of the touchdowns, I
mean he threw four in the stats, right, but one
of them was a little you know, jet sweep out
of the gun where you just flip it to the guy.
Yeah yeah, so uh he looked, he looked impressive.
Speaker 13 (22:05):
Man.
Speaker 11 (22:05):
He had a little bounce in his step the first touchdown.
The role to the right that he throws, it's essentially
a naked and I mean that thing was a missile.
Speaker 9 (22:17):
Man.
Speaker 11 (22:17):
He looked, he looked great. And is that just week
one is that you know, full recovery from the Achilles.
Is that added juice because it's the Jets and he
wanted to embarrass him. Maybe a little everything, but I was,
I was thoroughly impressed. He looks good.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah, I didn't know if he could make that signature
role right and zip it like he did throughout his career.
I thought maybe he's more of a pocket pouncer. But
it feels like he came in this way, he's going
out this way with you know that that mobility, and.
Speaker 11 (22:52):
I don't think he's quite as mobile obviously as he was,
but he's mobile enough to do stuff like that. But
like in the Pockey he was. You know, Romo doesn't
get enough credit for extending plays. Rogers doesn't get enough
credit for extending plays because you have guys like Josh
Allen and Lamar Jackson and designed quarterback runs. But these
(23:13):
guys were like elite athletes at the quarterback position. And
the way he could hit his back foot and kind
of get that like low lean forward and then just
go navigate the pocket and then step up and rifle
something down the field. I mean, nobody can do what
he does. And it's I mean the guy changed his
full throwing motion, you know, a few years into his
(23:35):
career because his knee was bugging him. And then he
started that like jump throw that cam Ward and all
these kids are doing. Everybody off platform two feet in
the air launching the ball. You would never ever teach
a kid to do that ever, It's too hard. It
takes too much coordination, it takes too much trunk rotation,
(23:56):
it takes too much of the rest of your arm
and everything being perfect as you release the ball. It's
so hard to do it, and he does it with
little effort, it seems.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
But you have these younger quarterbacks now who they idolized
Matthew Stafford. Yeah like that.
Speaker 11 (24:15):
Well, Matthew's like one of the best pocket passers number one.
But mechanics wise, he's only gotten better his whole career.
And he came in solid, just nice ball carriage, great feet,
can throw it off his back foot, has plenty of
juice in his arm, and you know, the stuff to
(24:37):
the left, like he takes the cheat step slightly to
the right and drifts just to open enough so he
never leaves anything to left inside and then it goes
the other way like he's he's one of the best
mechanically and you know as a competitor, arm strength, all that,
he's he's got it all.
Speaker 8 (24:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
It surprised me because it's almost like younger players look
up to Paul George in the NBA and I go
Paul George and you know, like for a different generation
they looked up to Paul George and then you get
Caleb Williams and c J. Stroud and they're like, man,
man their Stafford's the man.
Speaker 11 (25:12):
And I'm like, he's incredible.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
He takes a beating.
Speaker 11 (25:17):
Well, he dropped back that many times. Every once in
a while, they're gonna they're gonna get you. But how
about my guy, Caleb Man.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
I don't know, Oh you tell me, I mean you
started or second half?
Speaker 11 (25:30):
Yeah, it's.
Speaker 8 (25:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (25:33):
It's it seemed like he reverted to some of those
bad habits. And you know, the good place aren't just good,
they're incredible, they're you know, top ten, highlight reel good.
And then the bad ones. You're like, how do we
miss that throat? You know, how do we ah? What
(25:53):
is it? What do we what are we missing here?
And I mean you saw a speed when he decided
to act run on one of them. Oh my god,
he's way faster than you think.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
But can you be objective when you're talking about him,
because you know, I know because in the USC.
Speaker 11 (26:12):
Yeah, yeah, I mean listen, I I gotta call it
how I see it.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
And what concerns you then that they? I mean, you
got the best offensive head coach, you know, play caller.
I mean you got you got what you need, you
got weapons, you got an offensive line that's improved. What's
missing here.
Speaker 11 (26:35):
A couple of those throws. I mean, you just got
to hit a couple of those throws. I don't know
if it's the front foot. So like if you're a
right handed quarterback, your front left toe, your left big toe,
the ball is going to go right off that big
toe wherever, wherever you point it, that's where the ball's going.
So it's natural for right handers on an inbreaking route
(26:57):
from right to left. So like a slant route on
the right handed thrower's right side breaking to the left
to leave the ball to the right behind the guy right,
it's natural for the guy going the opposite direction to
throw it in front of him. He was like all
over the place. I'm both and you know a couple
(27:17):
of scenarios where guys were open. You know, you saw
DJ Moore the one in the in the end zone
to the left side. So that's kind of like, you know,
the little red thing on your mailbox, what's up you
check the mail? Yeah, the little flag. Yeah, that's like
DJ just broke off his route and threw his hand
(27:40):
out because nobody was there. That's like, you know, if
you're a veteran receiver and you're really Randy Moss used
to do it all the time. He just throw his
hand up and then oh, it's a go ball, all right,
red flag, check the mail and launch it and it
landed ten yards out of bounds, and you're like, oh man,
you know, like those ones you're just I don't know
(28:00):
if it's just an excitement or but sometimes the ball
just jumps out of his hand and it's you know,
completely out of whack. And then the other ones that
are you know, they got to be perfect, I mean
their money, you know, and and it's it's just an
inconsistency right now. And so hopefully it's you know, first
(28:21):
game jitters or something, and and they correct it, because
you know, I'm obviously rooting for him, but yeah, it
wasn't It wasn't his best game. It was inconsistent. He
started hot, and then it looked like a little bit
like last year.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
He's one of those quarterbacks or players that I would
call the red zone player. When you're watching the red zone,
they show you highlights, but if you watch the totality
of a game, that's when you realize that, right, maybe
he might have had four, you know, great moments, it
was all the other ones. So there's certain players. Kyler
(28:54):
Murray would be like that. I'm like, damn, he's having
a great game, and then all of a sudden you
look at his stats and you go, oh, well, he
only had three other completions. There certain guys like that.
Speaker 9 (29:05):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Justin Herbert was on the show prior to the start
of the season and I said, why don't you do
kind of what Josh Allen's doing. Why don't you make
put pressure on defenses by running, because we've seen him
run in college. The Rose Bowl, he was wonderful, and
then we started to see Now, I don't know if
this is going to be something that's in the playbook,
(29:27):
but he did use his legs in that game against
the Chiefs a lot more than I think we've seen before.
Speaker 11 (29:32):
Oh he looked great. He I think he's not going
to do the runs, so sorry, my dog's John. That's
all right. He's not gonna do as many designed runs.
But I think when he can extend plays, and then
you see him get outside, when Chris Jones took the
inside path and he feels that open edge, the dude's gone.
(29:57):
He's got a long stride line. I mean, he looks
like a gazelle when he runs and he covers a
ton of ground and it looks effortless. It's just you know,
get down, get out of bounds, that kind of deal.
But he's he's better than people give him credit for.
You know, I really do think that. And I don't
think he's completely realized his potential. I don't think he's
(30:20):
played the way that game the other night. They lose
that the last three four years, yeah, hands down, no
doubt about it. And it looked like they were going
to lose again. It's like, oh man, they were closed,
but here we go. This is kind of kind of
what we're expecting. And he completely flipped the script and
just owned it. And I just I really think he's
(30:43):
he's one of those special players that that's just waiting
for that opportunity, and he hit the big one. They
got three division games out of the out of the
blocks here, they got the Raiders on Monday night coming up,
and then I want to say that, I think the
Broncos after that. So that's a grueling schedule. The AFC
West is legit and all those all those games are
(31:06):
a street fight. Everybody wants to run the ball. Har ball, Carol.
You know the Chiefs want to run the ball, everybody.
And it's I's seen me a good division. Whoever comes
out of there might make a little noise.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
But when did we get away from the run that
now we're coming back to the run?
Speaker 11 (31:26):
I think, I don't know, it feels like the last
five seasons it's turned into a little bit like seven
on seven and you know, you got to throw it
fifty times. I feel like, you know, the way defenses
have really shifted. Other than a couple of coordinators in
the league, a lot of teams are adopting that kind
(31:47):
of blanket umbrella coverage, Ben don't break mentality. We'll throw
a couple of pressures here and there, some simulated pressures,
but we're not going to get caught, and we're going
to force you to go fifteen plays, you know, convert
three third and fives third and nine third and twelve,
Like we're gonna make you do that. And I guarantee
(32:07):
you're gonna screw it up before our defense test. You're
gonna give us a cheap one. Somebody's gonna fumble, you're
gonna get a holding. You're either punting or taking the
ball away. So I feel like once that started to
happen and teams started to back up a little bit,
it's a natural reaction to just turn around, hand the
ball to somebody and let them go, you know, found
the defense, force them to bring that guy in the box,
(32:28):
and then we'll get creative.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Yeah. I thought at one point somebody was going to
be we're going to be a run first team because
defenses were all quick, guys were smaller, and I thought, man,
why don't you go you'll have a counter attack and
just say we're just gonna ram it down your throat
because you're not gonna get bigger in the offense. You know,
we're we're gonna be built to beat you guys. Because
(32:51):
everybody was you know, but the Bengals went all air
attack here.
Speaker 11 (32:56):
I remember going to call a game and sense probably
two years ago. But I mean, they throw up more
than anybody. And I asked Zach Taylor, I said, hey,
are those old linemen ever gonna just start a mutiny?
And he goes why. I said, Sauce, they got to
pass that all game. Man, are you ever gonna hand
the rock? What's the deal? And he's like, come on,
(33:19):
that's we got to give it to our best player,
number nine in the offense runs through number nine. And
I said, hey, Joe Mixon is pretty good too, you know, yeah,
you can you can run it. So it was it
was funny just messing with him a little bit.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Gonna have that change up, man. Uh, Mark will be
calling the Seahawks at the Steelers one Eastern and it'll
be on Fox. Great to talk to you again, hope
the familiscontiates you guys. Thanks for joining me, sir, Thank you.

Speaker 8 (37:08):
Then once you heard something Posully. I we got to
get rid of this guy.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
Well, a guy you didn't know how to, you know,

audio is. I can't trust him. All right, fair enough?
All right? Dan and Eugene, Hi Dan, what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (37:23):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (37:23):
Thanks for taking my cole five ten. Been listening to
you since pre Rob Dibble days, but first time caller. So,
my wife and I are from Eugene, Oregon, and we
leave tomorrow for the East Coast. We're headed up to
Bridgeport for a couple of shows at the Amphitheater and
looking for a recommendation for a cool place in Milford
(37:46):
to get a bite some beers and watch the Ducks
in Northwestern on Fox for the big noon kickoff.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
What are the shows you're seeing in Bridgeport?
Speaker 10 (37:55):
We're going to see two nights of the Tadeshi Trucks
with Steve Winwood.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
All right, he got some real musicians there, if you would.
If you want to go to New Haven for pizza,
I'm a Sally's person. Modern pizza is great as well.
There's a sneaky good restaurant called Zanelli's in New Haven,
and I would recommend that. If you want ice cream,
(38:23):
won't it Beach Creamery in Milford. They serve great ice cream.
I can vouch for it. And I've slept with the
owner WHOA I have multiple times? Yes, yes, yes, just
saying I've slept with her.
Speaker 11 (38:38):
Get some context.
Speaker 2 (38:39):
Yeah, it's my wife. Cover your back and todd All
of a sudden, it's like, what Yeah, that was very funny, though,
but you didn't laugh.
Speaker 8 (38:48):
I didn't laugh.
Speaker 6 (38:48):
I laughed on the inside, like what some people do
for free ice cream inappropriate A most.
Speaker 2 (38:53):
I know, But I don't like when somebody says that's funny,
but they don't laugh.
Speaker 8 (38:56):
That's what my wife does all the time to me,
that's funny.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
But they don't laugh.
Speaker 8 (39:01):
Yeah, so it doesn't count. It's supposed to be a
knee direk reaction.
Speaker 6 (39:04):
It's a spontaneous thing. You can control laughter, yes, genuinely funny.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
You can't control Seatan's been working on an imitation of
your laugh my laugh. Yes, that's for.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
The one where like Todd's say, it's something he's really going.
He's like, he explains what happens and he laugh what happened.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
Fran Callender did that for me recently, which it wasn't
very flattery games.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
Yeah, yeah, he was studying you, Paul. This day in
sports history, just a couple.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Gail Sayers retired in nineteen seventy two from the NFL
after a really nice comeback.
Speaker 9 (39:38):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Lou Brock set another steeals record with one hundred and
five steals in a season in nineteen seventy four, and
Roger Federer in two thousand and six. One is third
straight US.
Speaker 8 (39:47):
Open m wow.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Uh. Nineteen eighty nine, on this date, five days after
hitting a home run for the Yankees and went against
the Maritors, Deon Sanders returns upon sixty eight yards for
a touchdown. M IF Dion was now, would Dion be
better than Travis Hunter? Would he be used like him?
(40:14):
He'd be playing both both ways, He'd be cornerback and
wide receiver, because it feels like that, feels like he'd
be like, let me show you how it's done. All right,
let me see. I can't get any more phone calls
in here, don't have enough time. Final results of the
poll question, Seaton, Yeah, we got a couple of them
(40:34):
up there right now. Where does South Florida belong in
the top twenty five? What a bizarre show today.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
Unfortunately the top ten has dropped down to or below
nine percent. That's okay, that's unfortunately. And then we had
another random one. I'd rather hit sixty home runs or
four hundred. Maybe we discussed that tomorrow when maybe attle
more time tomorrow. Todd, would you learn today?
Speaker 6 (40:58):
Understandably, we spent time today to foking Southward and Rectors
football and remembering the late comedian Gallagher Seatan.
Speaker 2 (41:04):
What did you learn?
Speaker 4 (41:05):
According to social media, we learned how Todd carries a tune.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
It's with a G string. The g string.
Speaker 8 (41:11):
Marvin wheel a punishment has a theme song.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Paul I learned a lot about South Florida.
