Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Our one.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
On this Tuesday, Dan and the Dana's Dan Patrick Show
will recap what happened with the Eagles Chargers last night
and moving forward, try to figure out just how good
these teams are. The Chargers now nine to four, Philly
is eight and five. The Colts are looking at Philip Rivers,
grandfather Philip Rivers, as their quarterback. They need a quarterback.
(00:28):
Riley Leonard, who was the backup quarterback, got injured as
he came in in relief over the weekend, and now
all of a sudden, you don't have a healthy quarterback.
So they've reached out to Philip Rivers, who, according to
NFL Network and ESPN, worked out last night. They said
he threw the ball. Well, okay, sure, why not bring
(00:50):
him in? And it made me wonder about this if
I said, look at the games coming up this weekend.
You got the Bills and the Patriots. That's at the Patriots,
and the Bills are favored by one and a half.
Chargers and the Chiefs. Okay, the Chiefs, that's the point
spread for next week. Okay, Packers Broncos coming up this
(01:10):
next week Packers minus two and a half at the Broncos.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
You have the Lions in the Rams.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Well, what if I said you got the Colts game
against Seattle of all of the games. If I said
Philip River is going to be the starting quarterback for
the Colts at age forty four, and you're you're gonna
throw him into Seattle against that defense. Of all the games,
are you tuning in to watch Grandpa and the Colts
(01:40):
facing Maybe that's how they promoted coming on Grandpa and
the Colts face the Seattle Seahawks and vaunted defense.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
That's next.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
The Colts are thirteen and a half point underdogs, but
Lions Rams is great Packers, Broncos, great Chargers. Chief Maybe
we finally put a steak into the Chiefs, but the
Chiefs are favored by three and a half. And then
the Bills at the Patriots is spicy as well. If
(02:12):
I have multiple TVs, I gotta have the Colts and
the Seahawks on. But you're going to have and I'm
looking at the window here, Chiefs probably would be four o'clock,
Broncos four o'clock, Lions at the Rams four o'clock, And
then are they going to have those earlier.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Yes, Paul Chargers Chiefs a one pm Eastern game, oh.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Surprisingly, Okay, Bill's Patriots will be a one o'clock Okay,
So you got Packers Broncos, Lions, Rams, Colts, Seahawks. If
Philip Rivers is the starting quarterback, if you do priority lists, there,
where are you putting Colt's Seahawks. Comparing that with Packers Broncos, Lions, Rams,
(03:01):
Lions Rams is great. Lions are getting five and a
half at the Rams. But then the Packers are favored
at Denver, which is interesting. And then you got the
Colts against the Seahawnks. All right, come on in. You know,
when ever somebody says I've seen everything, you have it
not in sports. I mean crazy things happen all the time.
(03:22):
I mean the fact that Indiana's playing for a national
championship and going to have the Heisman Trophy winner. You
thought you would say, okay, here's another one. If I
would have said to you twenty years ago, you know,
Indiana is going to have the Heisman Trophy winner, and
Vanderbilt will have a Heisman Trophy candidate, and Indiana is
going to be the number one team in football, you'd
(03:45):
be going no way, not possible. But both of these
schools great stories this year. And that's the quick turnaround
that you can have with nil collectibles, the portal, all
of that. And you've seen that with Indiana, certainly with
what Kurt Signetti has done. And I'm going to say
this again, and I'm not trying to disparage what Dion
(04:07):
did at Colorado, but boy to the media make a
big deal about what Dion did at Colorado. Kurt Signetti
did that times a thousand at Indiana, and there's very
little fanfare for Kurt Signetti because he's not going to
get clicks. Indiana's not going to get clicks. Dion is
going to get clicks. And the media plays and had
(04:30):
played to that, you know, game days out there and
he's just taking a one win team and they're winning
four games and then they had a bigger turnaround after that,
and you did have the Heisman Trophy winner. But Kurt
Signetti is going to play for a national championship, or
at least he's in the mix. They're the number one
team in the country. They have the Heisman Trophy winner
as well. I don't want to undersell what he did
(04:52):
at Indiana. Deon did a wonderful job. Dion brings eyeballs,
he gets clicks. But Urt Signetti staying at Indiana Penn
State was going to offer him probably whatever he wanted,
and he said, nope, I'm going to stay here and
sign that what nine year deal. But that's it's incredible
to think about that as a possibility in college football.
(05:15):
And you're doing it in the Big Ten. So it's
not like you're an outlier SMU or Boise State or
Arizona State. You're doing it in the Big Ten and
you're going to have the Heisman Trophy winner. They did
announce the four players who will go to New York.
Jeremiah Love, you got Mendoza, you got Pavilla, and then
you got saying they're all going to New York. Those
(05:37):
are the Heisman finalists. I'm not allowed to say who
I voted for. They said, you know, can you wait
until after the ceremony, So and due respect to that,
I will give you who I voted. You know, you
list three players. You can list three players, and I did.
I listed three players. So eight seven seven three DP

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Gangs all here, Fritzy Seat and Marv Paula, Yours Truly
and the backroom guys. Notre Dame as a press conference
coming up at noon Eastern now that was scheduled. We
had Pete Babakua he is the athletic director at Notre Dame.
He of course came on yesterday and talked about, you know,
the damage that was done between the relationship between Notre
(07:11):
Dame and the ACC. Speculation now once again speculation. I
don't know anything about this. I have inquired, I didn't
get responses back from my two sources. Is Notre Dame
planning a bigger picture here? Is Notre Dame going to
say to the ACC, maybe, starting in the new year,
(07:32):
we're going to take all of our balls and go home.
We're going to take all of our sports and take
it out of the ACC. It certainly felt that way
that there was. Notre Dame was hot with what happened.
And I'll go back to a source of mine who
knows what went on in that college football playoff committee
meeting on Saturday and said that the ACC spent three
(07:56):
hours of the committee's time talking about Notre Dame and
my and Notre Dame thinks, hey, did you guys fight
for us? We're kind of in the ACC, but we're not.
And it's almost like if this was a CD, if
this was music, it'd be the ACC feat Notre Dame.
That's kind of what the ACC is. But the ACC
(08:18):
went to bat for Miami, and once again, I have
no problem Miami getting in. I have a problem with
the logic of this is where we had Notre Dame,
this is where we had Miami and nothing really changed
until it changed. And Alabama not dropping after getting blown
out the SEC title game. Those are the only things
(08:39):
I'm questioning. You can put in other schools in there.
It could be the other way around. If Miami was
ranked in front of Notre Dame for weeks and weeks
and weeks and weeks and weeks, and all of a sudden,
Notre Dame jumps them, people be in an uproar, right,
Oh Notre Dame preferential treatment. Okay, So just be fair
to the situation, which is what I'm trying to be.
(09:01):
I don't like that Notre Dame's not playing in a
bowl game. I don't like the possibility of them saying, hey,
we don't like what you did. We're taking our sports
out of the ACC. But you know, the thing I
thought of is if you're Notre Dame and you say
to the ACC, ac ciya, we're going to the Big Ten.
We're going to take all of our sports to the
(09:21):
Big Ten and we're going to try to do a
partial schedule with the Big Ten with Notre Dame football.
Is that where we're headed? Because it felt like so
Petelevaqua comes on. I have a relationship with him, and
he does that interview and he tells me how he
feels about the acc and the damage is that you
(09:44):
know is done and you know when you have the
athletic director make a declaration like that, it doesn't feel
like they're going to go quietly here. It feels like
there's going to be an announcement coming up here at
noon Eastern, but we'll be off the air. But that
would be my speculation. And once again I have I'm
(10:04):
not reporting anything other than let me think about this
and add logic to this and what exactly what he
was he saying to me and what does this mean
in a bigger picture here?
Speaker 3 (10:15):
All right, we'll get phone calls eight seven to seven
to three.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
DP Show email address dpat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle
a DP show Reggie Miller. A little bit later on,
we'll have more on the Eagles subpar performance last night,
more on the possibility of Philip Rivers being the starting
quarterback for the Colts. Unbelievable, satan. What's the poll question
from the first hour of the program?
Speaker 5 (10:39):
Well, why don't we start right there with Philip Rivers
and the Colts. Philip coming back to quarterback the Colts
is a great idea and terrible idea.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Why don't we play great idea? Terrible idea?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Oh, it's kind of a sad idea that you've gotten
to that point is this would have been Riley Leonard's,
you know, time to shine. But now he still could play.
He got injured in that game over the weekend, he
banged up his knee. He scored a touchdown, and at
(11:12):
least he gives you a quarterback who is, you know,
in the twenties, in his twenties, not in his forties.
Philip Rivers could be Riley Leonard's dad, and maybe he's
gonna be out there playing. It's not like Philip Rivers
lost arm strength or mobility because he didn't have either
one of them.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
And you're gonna have him.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
In Seattle against that defense, Oh god, you're gonna have
He's gonna be arriving in a walker and then you know,
like Seattle's defense is going to be helping him up,
you know, walking him to the curb here across the crosswalk.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
All right, so that's one pole question. What else do
you have?
Speaker 6 (11:51):
It is?
Speaker 5 (11:51):
We got another one here from Paul Man. They're in trouble.
That's the question. Got of statement. Okay for the comment
in there, man, Man, they're in trouble. Okay, all Colts, Chiefs, Eagles, Ravens. Man,
they are all in trouble.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Yeah, yeah, Colts, you know the Eagles.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I didn't have a good feeling to start the year,
and I you know, watching last night, you can't have
a good feeling now. The schedule isn't demanding, but you're
trying to figure out where you're going to be in
the NFC playoffs? Are you going to host a playoff game?
You're gonna win your division? Then you got to see
(12:30):
where do we stack up here? Are they the second
best team right now? I think the Rams are the
best team of the NFC, But you got the Niners
and you got Seattle. Green Bay is really good too.
I put green Bay over the Eagles right now as well.
The fact that green Bay is going to Denver in
green Bay is a two and a half point favorite.
(12:51):
Man that tells you a lot about what Vegas thinks.
So the Chiefs, we know they're done done ish Hey,
until they're eliminated, they're in it. Because if you said, okay,
if you said the Chiefs made the playoffs, where would
you put them in the pecking order of the AFC
(13:12):
of chances to go to the Super Bowl? Would you
put them over the Bills? Would you put them over
the Patriots? Once again, the Chiefs are going to be
playing on the road. They're not going to win the division,
which if they played the Chargers, if they played the Broncos, like,
they still have that impact at least that thought.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Of damn they got fifteen Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
You just named all those teams, and I'm like, the
Chiefs are the favorite.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, Vegas would still love them if they're going to
make the playoffs. Vegas would still love them to be
able to go to the super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
All right?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Any other I like both of those poll questions. There
anything else, Seaton Before we take a break. I think
we're going to ride with those two for the first hour. Okay,
we'll talk about the Chargers as well, justin Herbert playing
through a broken hand, and they played well enough that
secondary is really good. You know, the Chargers defense is
really good. And you're just o maryon Hampton what they
(14:10):
needed him. And when you think of all the injuries
with the Chargers, the fact that they're where they are
right now says a whole lot. Here's Jim Harbaugh talking
about just how big that win was last night.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
This is definitely, I don't maybe the best best feeling,
you know, just a wonderful, wonderful feeling of winning and
thrill of victory. It's certainly in the discussion I put
in the discussion the birth of my seven children, my marriage,
you know, in the conversation, in the conversation, just joyful.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
He is a character. He's a character. All Right, we're
gonna take a break. Phone calls, they're welcome.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
We'll get to those coming up, Reggie a little bit
later on, and uh, we're back after this on The

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Away if you're watching on peacock. I got a Lane
Kiffin bobblehead that was sent in the mail to me.
But here is actually I got two of them. This
is from a billion Oxford and he sent me two
of them. One of them has a broken hand and
he said that that was a casualty when he found
(16:01):
out that Lane Kiffen was leaving to go to LSU.
So he sent me one that is, you know, completely
intact that we're showing now. But then he also gave
me the one that I have that I'm holding here,
and it's got Lane Kiffen with one hand, Yes.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
Paul, And that's a new thin Lane Kiffen with the
visor and shredfest.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I think that's Poloti lane Kiffen. Yeah, palates. So he
says that he gave me two Lane Kiffen bobble heads.
They were given away with the purchase of a chicken
on a stick at the Exxon gas station in Oxford,
and he hopes that we could find a home here.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
He said that the.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Broken hand on one of the dolls was not the
result of any outburst of emotion from this past weekend,
but a cat incident that occurred years ago.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
So all right, thank you, Billy, Yes, PAULI.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Who invented sports bobbleheads? Have they been around forever?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Well? How long is forever?
Speaker 8 (17:02):
Like?
Speaker 4 (17:03):
Do you remember them when you were a kid. I
don't really remember them when I was a kid. Bobblehead's
being a toy or a gift.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I remember getting one at ESPN, a bobblehead for me,
and that had to be thirty five years ago. Thirty
a good thirty plus years ago, Yes, tod, Yeah, I'm
with Paulie.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
I don't remember that growing up as all. I know,
we're in our mid fifties.
Speaker 9 (17:31):
But you know, there's there's wind up toys, and there's
things that maybe wiggle or shake a little bit, but
I don't remember that.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
It was always about like trading cards and things like that.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I always felt like every bobblehead looked the same. That
you'd be like, oh, look at that one, and then
somebody would say, oh, there's a George W. Bush and
then there's you, and it looked just the same, and
I'd be like, all right, let's maybe differentiate here a
little bit.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
And they've gotten a lot more. I mean I got
a ton of.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Them behind seat and in Fritzy, Yeah, PAULI.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
The first bobblehead sports I could find created was back
in the mid sixties major League Baseball, leading up to
the World Series, they randomly over a couple of years
did bibbleheads of Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Roberto Clemente, and
Roger Marris, and it never really caught on until the
eighties with other sports.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
You know what, I remember seeing those. I remember seeing those,
and I probably should have kept a couple of those.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I kept everything, and then there's certain things where I go,
why didn't I keep that or those? Dylan just sent
me a crazy stat and this is courtesy of bleacher Report.
Jalen Hurts. His QBR last night was thirty one point three.
He had four interceptions. He also lost to fumble. He
had an interception and lost to fumble on the same play.
(18:48):
Here's your QBR. If you spike the ball every single play,
so all you do is spike the ball every single play,
your QBR is thirty nine point six. Your QBR was
spiking the ball every single play, would have been better
than Jalen Hurts last night at thirty one point three.
(19:22):
Jalen Hurts first player to commit two turnovers on the
same play since nineteen seventy eight, when the NFL began
tracking play by play data. Four interceptions, one fumble. One
of the interceptions was not his fault. AJ Brown kind
of short handed, it had alligator arms there. But that
charger defense is really good. Secondary's really good. And they
(19:45):
got after him. They got after him last night. But
the Eagles got after you know, justin Herbert as well.
Speaker 10 (19:51):
Well.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
They have seven sacks.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
You get seven sacks and you get Saquon Barkley one
hundred and twenty yards and you don't win that game. Now,
they kept it close, but you got to win those games.
Let's see a couple of phone calls in here, Greg
and Michigan leads us off. Good morning, Greg, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Today.
Speaker 8 (20:10):
Good morning Cama man, mister positive. Hey, gotta love my Josh,
Elvis Allen and the Bills. Let me tell you and
real quick, Stephen A. Smith mentioned you yesterday in the show.
It's fantastic. I don't exactly know what it was, but
put you out there. Hey. And if you ever talked politics,
get my buddy Chris Clomo. But here's the thing I
(20:30):
got to ask you. Might Detroit Lions, the Bears and
the Packers are playing great. Do they have a fighter's chance?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
I mean, of course they do. That's a really good team,
PAULI give me the schedule.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
They got the Rams coming up this weekend in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
At the Rams, hosts of Steelers, at the Vikings, at
the Bears to end.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
It be tough, gonna be tough.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
But I still think they're better than the Bears and
the Packers.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Yeah, Paul, Packers have Broncos, Bears, Ravens, Vikings. Okay, somewhat
friendly after the Broncos game.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, Colts started out seven and one.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
How many teams start out seven and one and don't
make the playoffs because that Colt's strength to schedule is
really really difficult, and you don't even have a quarterback.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
And if you do, he's forty four years of age.
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Either that or you got a twenty three year old
rookie and Riley Leonard. Either way doesn't look good. This
was a feel good story. This was this was a
story that was kind of rivaling the Indiana Hoosiers, like,
all right, who is this team?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
You know?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
There was similarities of parallel like nobody thought this was
going to happen.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Hey, we found our quarterback. Our running back's really good.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
We can win this division in seven and one, and
now I don't think they're going to make the playoffs.
Thanks for the phone call, Greg Buddha is back from
San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
I boota.
Speaker 11 (22:12):
What ut DP Happy Tuesday, Dan, I am calling in
today with an enthusiasm unknown to man time. Baby, let's go, Dan.
We all know the Chargers that fooled you before, but
seeing them pull it out last night without any crazy
chargery was kind of refreshing and fun to watch. And please, please, please, Dad,
(22:34):
let's have Phil Rivers come back. It's all about content, baby,
and Dan, I was thinking about this yesterday to the
whole college football fiasco that is, I mean today Bobby
Knight must be rolling in his grave watching all of this.
Indiana's rank number one, Notre Dame ranked at an ironic
(22:54):
fritzy eleven. And honestly, I watched him listen to all
of the explanations by all the professionals, Dan, and it
just seems like a like a version of Doctor Phil
explained a bunch of nothing about a bunch of nothing,
and at the end of the day, it's just all
not God.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Thank you, Buddha, Christ and Syracuse.
Speaker 12 (23:15):
Hi, Chris, Hey, Thanks Dan, Hey, A couple things for you.
Speaker 8 (23:20):
Hey.
Speaker 12 (23:20):
You know, the first few years of the BCS and
it's fourteen format, they had a hard time finding four
teams that were worthy of being in the playoffs, and
a lot of those games ended up being blowouts. Now,
with then I on the transfer portal, the twelve team
format isn't enough, and I think it's great for college
football and especially college football fans. And Dan, your interview
(23:40):
with Notre Dame's ad yesterday was played everywhere and kind
of like your Russell Wilson interview a few years ago.
It seems like whenever a high profile executive, coach or
player wants to get a message out through the media.
You're the one they trust to get it out there
in histry Urine, I, I don't know if there's.
Speaker 10 (24:03):
A bigger compliment.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Well, thank you, Chris Now. I appreciate the opportunity to
be able to ask the questions. The question is will
they answer those questions? Because I can ask the Notre
Dame Athletic director questions about the acc leaving the acc
what does he mean when he says, you know the
damage that's done, but he has to be willing to answer.
It's like Russell Wilson had been on the show twenty
(24:27):
times prior to the one time he came on and
was actually honest, actually gave me true emotion, true feelings.
But that's that's the you know, it's the hit or
miss that you have with this, and sometimes you hit,
sometimes you miss. Zach and Knoxville, Hi, Zach, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 13 (24:49):
ADP, Thanks for taking my call. Sorry about the technical
difficulties yesterday. I just wanted to do address. I'm not
saying you're given Notre Dame a pass, but let's to
be clear on something. They are not a victim, and
I understand the whole hoodwinks being ranked ahead of Miami.
But if you look at their schedule, I don't think
(25:10):
that they've beaten anybody better than Auburn, who Alabama obviously
beating the Iron Bowl. And I'm not saying Alabama should
be in either. I just think that the coverage seems
to be a little bit of Notre Dames isn't getting in.
But they didn't play anybody at the end of the year,
and the two teams that you played that were worth
(25:30):
a crap you didn't win.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, but Zach, I'm not giving Notre Dame a pass.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
If this was reversed and it was Miami ranked in
front of Notre Dame for five weeks and then all
of a sudden, Notre Dame jumped them, you don't think
the media would have been all over Notre Dame. The
media given them preferential treatment. I'm not given it doesn't matter.
I couldn't care less that if it's Notre Dame or
(25:58):
if it's Miami, if it's all Obama, I got to
be fair to what is going on, and I don't
think it was fair to the system that they've created.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
That's all. I'm not giving him a pass.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
I gave him the opportunity to explain why they're mad
at the ACC. Did the ACC say things disparaging things
about Notre Dame in the College Football Playoffs selection committee?
That I mean, that's what I'm curious about. Not I
give them a hall pass. What's the hall pass I'm
giving them. I understand why they're frustrated, but if it
(26:36):
was reversed, I would understand why Miami was frustrated. This
isn't about Notre Dame. If Alabama, Alabama didn't move and
they got blown out by Georgia. And I'll go back
to what I said to you. That happened last week
when I talked to a source who said they, in
(26:57):
their minds, they thought that the committee was setting up
Notre Dame to be disappointed. Okay, that's from a source.
And what happened, Notre Dame got disappointed. So this isn't
a hall pass for Notre Dame. They should play in
a bull game. I'm disappointed they're not. I understand why
(27:20):
they're not, but I wish they would have. They may
leave the ACC, Okay, they may go to the Big
Ten with their other sports, Okay, but I'm not sitting
here playing favorites and I did push back with Pete, like,
you know, why are you doing this?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You know, even when I said, oh, it sounds like
sour grapes or somebody might say that, and it does
sound like that with a portion of this your Notre Dame.
You can be bigger than this, You can be better
than this. And it didn't sound that way yesterday at times.
But I understand the frustration. Take Notre Dame out of
(27:59):
that and just put two schools in there. Your school
is ahead of somebody for five weeks and then and
nothing changed, and then it changed, and your reaction would
be what And that's all I'm asking you to do.
Understand the situation. And this is on the college football
(28:21):
playoff committee and whatever the fallout is. Maybe there's change
because of this, But in no way do I sit
here and go man, Notre Dame, how do I help them?
Notre Dame doesn't need my help? Andrew in Washington, Hi Andrew,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 14 (28:45):
Hey Andrew, good morning, Dan Dennet's thanks for taking my call.
I agree with you. You didn't show any favoritism yesterday
to Pete Babaqua. That was just an excellent interview. I
echo the sentiments of Christ and Syracuse where you were
like a conduit for the whole nation as far as
how Miami felt. And in that I mean, I think
it's just the latest Catholics versus Convicts game and Miami
(29:08):
revenge that two point conversion they lost by in nineteen
eighty eight by jumping up in the thing, and so you.
Speaker 10 (29:13):
Know, hey, rivalries die hard.
Speaker 14 (29:15):
But one other thing that I noticed was permanent damage
is a pretty uh, you know, important term in any relationships.
So I think that you know your your sentiment where
you're trying to get some information on if they're leaving
the a SEC, it's probably going to be true. Last night,
I've seen some reports that the Eagles are still using
a Shane Styke and offense. I don't know if you
(29:35):
heard that. They haven't really changed the terminology and the
only difference between this year and last year was Saquon
Barkley was a new weapon for him. So I don't
know if you've heard any of that. And Dan, real quick,
if you don't mind, I haust out of the day.
So last night, Derek Queen scored thirty three points, grabbed
ten rebounds, and dissed out ten assists last night for
the Pelicans to become the only the fifth NBA player
(29:57):
to have a thirty point triple double before the age
of twenty one, joining Lebron, Luca, Yared Box and Wemby.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Steat of the day, Sat of the Day, that beast
stad of the day, stat of the day?
Speaker 6 (30:12):
Here comes that?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
What stat of the day? Now?
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Did Chris say that he's the first rookie since Wemby?
But also or he's in that category with Wemby and
Lebron and who else?
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Luca?
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Okay, Austin Reeves had a triple double in twenty twenty two,
a thirty point triple double in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 6 (30:37):
But I think he said before the age of twenty one.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Oh, okay, well then, and they traded up to get
Derek Queen they did. Yeah, and he's played pretty well
for them. I didn't necessarily see it in college. Was
he at NC State?
Speaker 3 (30:50):
He's a Maryland Maryland, Maryland?
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Okay, a little bit of a breakout year last year.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Yeah, Let's see a couple more phone calls, Robin Saint Louis, Hi, Rob,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Dan?
Speaker 10 (31:04):
You know I've got two things for you today on
one's a Question and one's a comment. This whole thing
with Notre Dame, this is the best thing that can
happen for college football, and Notre Dame deserves exactly what
they're getting. This is called come up and you don't
want it to play by the rules. You want your
own little station. You want to be on prime time
(31:25):
every Saturday night. This is what you're going to get.
People are gonna come after you, and this is exactly
what happened. Now. I got a question for you. Last night,
I finally got to see a Monday night football game
on ABC because I don't have cable. These people are
losing a lot of viewers, aren't they. How So, well,
(31:46):
if you can't watch the game on ESPN because you
don't have ESPN, you just don't watch the game, or
you go to maybe a go to a bar and
you don't listen to the sounds so you don't see
the advertising.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Is basic cable though?
Speaker 10 (32:01):
Well? Who has basic kidnymore?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Well, okay, thank you, Ron, I don't know where he's going.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Yeah, I don't know. I got YouTube TV, Yeah, paulin.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Sunday Night football, Monday Night football are the too easiest
sports to find an America.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Probably, Yeah, Thursday, good luck with that. Yeah, good luck
with that.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
By the way, Notre Dames come up, and this is
going to back them into an unbelievable deal, probably with
the Big Ten.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Yeah, really showed them. Yeah, I don't play.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
I hope you know me well enough by listening and
doing this for forty years.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
I'm not playing favorites here. You know, you just have
to tell the story.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
My job as an interviewer is to be a conduit
to information that somebody wants to give to my audience,
that's all.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
And asking the right.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Questions, okay, it's I take great pride in it, and
you want to get the right answers, and you can
challenge in a way that you don't raise your voice.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
That's the way I was taught the way I continue
to do it. But if you think I gave Notre
Dame a pass, that's on you. It was never any
preconceived notion that I'm going to somehow be a soft
landing for them, because I'm telling you right now, I
don't agree with them not playing in a Bowl game.
I don't like it. It feels a little bit more
(33:28):
elitist and they may bounce out of the ACC because
of this, but I do understand where they're ranked. Take
Notre Dame out of this and put your school in there,
and if it happened to you, you'd be shouting from
the mountaintops.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
You would be yeah pulling.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Based off all the reports, the Notre Dame team and
players made the decision not to play in the bowl
game within an hour of the selection show. Do you
think if they had a little more time, they may
have realized this is the last time eighty percent of
them are ever going to play competitive football and he
with their friends and teammates and get a week down
in Florida. And I know it's an exhibition game, but
(34:05):
to spend one more week or three more weeks of practice.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Yeah matter how many of your teammates were not going
to play in that game.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
But those guys are okay, then the other ninety five
can play.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
I always think you should play another game if you can,
because if Jeremiah Love is not going to play, I
want to see who is replacements going to be. I
want to be ready. I always want to have one
more game as a coach. I want to get guys
in there, playing in you know, real games there. But
I understand your frosty because of this, and you're going
(34:37):
to be playing in the pop Tard Bowl and nothing
to gain.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
If you beat BYU. Yes see.
Speaker 8 (34:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
The timing of that does sort of suggest that it's
an emotional reaction, which isn't really the best way to
do that.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
And all of this feels emotional. I'm wondering if you said,
a Notre Dame, let's wait a week and then have
Pete Levaka, the athletic director, address the media or the
players get to vote on this that you know, you
remove yourself from that if you say, hey, we didn't
make the playoffs, we don't want to play. Okay, I
(35:10):
get that, all right, let me take a break. We
got our play of the day up next.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
Is the play of the day.
Speaker 10 (35:35):
Check this out.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
Hurts in the shot gun. A touchdown would win it
for the Eagles. Hurtz pulls it, throws.
Speaker 15 (35:42):
Intercepted, game over intercepted game over, game over the forth
interception Tony Jefferson unbelievable, uncedes it.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Courtesy of the Chargers Radio Network. Chargers have won five
of their last six. Here's the stat there, holding their
opponents to twenty points or less in each of those
five wins. We tend to talk about the coach and
the quarterback, talk about the defense with the Chargers still
driving that trusty old ride, keep it looking sharp with
Mako from dense to faded paint. They got you covered. Literally,
(36:17):
get a free estimate today? Uh oh, better get Maco.
Devin in Phoenix, Hey Devin, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 16 (36:26):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (36:27):
What's up? Dan Ayman?
Speaker 16 (36:28):
Six?
Speaker 17 (36:29):
First time callers six to one in a Husky two
fifty five? Hey, after your awesome interview, which, by the way,
I think we underestimate some silence in some of those
questions that you asked.
Speaker 18 (36:43):
I thought it was awesome.
Speaker 17 (36:44):
We all feel it, you know, and you ask something like, well,
how so after Pete Ba Bakwa's response to one of
the questions.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
But my question for.
Speaker 17 (36:53):
You is, have we thought about what would have happened
if Virginia had won that game and gotten into represent
the ACC with all of the money, the talks, the
contracts both in the room that are vying for ACC
and what that money means not only to a team
but to an entire conference in the landscape. I just wonder,
if Virginia had won, does that allow Notre Dame to
(37:15):
stay put versus being moved down and sitting on their couch.
Speaker 3 (37:19):
So just a thought, and thanks for all you guys
do to keep me laughing every morning. Have a good one.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Thank you, Devin. Well, Miami moved ahead of Notre Dame
and they would have gotten in. I'm guessing, you know,
was Virginia guaranteed of getting into the playoffs if they
won the ACC?
Speaker 4 (37:38):
Yes, because they were ranked going into the game. What
was their ranking though, Yes, Marvin, I know they were
tending two.
Speaker 8 (37:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, and it's not to say they weren't worthy of it.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
But I wasn't following, you know, I was actually rooting
for Duke to win because it would just be chaos
the five loss team is in the ACC title game.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
Yeah, Pauli, Virginia was ranked seventeenth in the country going
into the game. Okay, so that means they're automatic. I
gotta check what would have been out.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Okay, it's hard to keep up with the math of
all of this or the logic, I should say, or
the lack thereof.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Becky in Wisconsin. Hi, Becky, what's on your mind?
Speaker 16 (38:30):
Hey, good March guys. I just wanted to say Happy
Holidays everybody, and I got a quick wager for Todd.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
Oh.
Speaker 16 (38:36):
I was hoping, since I am a big Tiger fan,
I could do a straight up win loss at Pie
to the Face this weekend for a Sunday's game.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Todd Green Bay, Denver in Denver, pie to the face
with Becky and wiscons.
Speaker 9 (38:50):
Let's do it tough one and they're due for a
loss of the rig ten straight but you know what,
they're in Denver.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
I'm hoping that will give us that mile high magic edge.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
Okay, all right, you got to bet there, Becky.
Speaker 16 (39:02):
Thanks all right.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Adam in La Hi, Adam, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 18 (39:10):
Hey, good morning, DP appreciate you. Hey, just had a
quick question and then it's out of the day. Quick
question would be, since Norder Dame didn't get in, if
you thought that they should get in, who would you
have taken out? Would it had been James Madison Tulane.
And then if it was both, which I think it
should have been both, I don't see why I do
Tulane and James matters both, man, I get the rules, whatever,
But would it.
Speaker 8 (39:29):
Have been Texas?
Speaker 18 (39:29):
Would it have been Vandy? And then my quick set
of the day was yeah, confirmed nineteen seventy eight, It
says last Sportsborough says that Jalen Hurts the first player
in NFL history to throw an interception, hand and fumble
on the same play. Pretty crazy to see, but yeah,
go ahead and tell me what you feel about those
two teams that you would have had it instead of
Tulaine and Bandy. Thanks.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
I'm glad they got in.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Like I still root for the underdog because there's going
to be a time when these teams won't get a
chance to play in the playoffs, because I do think
that we'll go to a more professional model.
Speaker 4 (40:01):
Yes, Paulie, there has to be some type of reward
for winning your way in with a group of five
or you just get rid of the group of five
conferences and just tell them you have no place in
this playoff.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
Yeah, and you know, we saw that with Boise Stay,
we saw that with Arizona State, now I don't think
they deserve first round byes like they did last year.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Tulane and JMU. They lose their coaches.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Now they do come back, I think to be able
to coach, which I'm glad that they're doing that.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
It's just been and we talked about this six weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
I was informed by somebody who said a sort said,
there's going to be so much upheaval. Well, we've seen
upheaval and it's not over yet. I don't know what
Notre Dame's going to say in two hours?
Speaker 5 (40:44):
Yeah, seton, Yeah, I mean I find the press conference,
the timing of that to be pretty interesting. Just with
the interview and the press conference. It's a crazy what
is it, seventy two hours or whatever since the announcement.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yeah, I know, feels like something, something seismic is coming.
And this was almost the we I'm going to do
this interview with you, and he gave me a headline.
Now that brings more eyeballs to this press conference Notre
Dame's going to have in two hours from now. Is
there a chance Philip Rivers going to play Sunday starts
(41:23):
Sunday for the Colts against Seattle Albert Breer will join us.
What's Wrong with the Eagles South Palantonio stops by, and
Reggie Miller will join us as well. Busy two Hours
coming up with Fritzi sat and Marv Pauley. Yours truly
The Dan Patrick Show
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Our one.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
On this Tuesday, Dan and the Dana's Dan Patrick Show
will recap what happened with the Eagles Chargers last night
and moving forward, try to figure out just how good
these teams are. The Chargers now nine to four, Philly
is eight and five. The Colts are looking at Philip Rivers,
grandfather Philip Rivers, as their quarterback. They need a quarterback.
(00:28):
Riley Leonard, who was the backup quarterback, got injured as
he came in in relief over the weekend, and now
all of a sudden, you don't have a healthy quarterback.
So they've reached out to Philip Rivers, who, according to
NFL Network and ESPN, worked out last night. They said
he threw the ball. Well, okay, sure, why not bring
(00:50):
him in? And it made me wonder about this if
I said, look at the games coming up this weekend.
You got the Bills and the Patriots. That's at the Patriots,
and the Bills are favored by one and a half.
Chargers and the Chiefs. Okay, the Chiefs, that's the point
spread for next week. Okay, Packers Broncos coming up this
(01:10):
next week Packers minus two and a half at the Broncos.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
You have the Lions in the Rams.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Well, what if I said you got the Colts game
against Seattle of all of the games. If I said
Philip River is going to be the starting quarterback for
the Colts at age forty four, and you're you're gonna
throw him into Seattle against that defense. Of all the games,
are you tuning in to watch Grandpa and the Colts
(01:40):
facing Maybe that's how they promoted coming on Grandpa and
the Colts face the Seattle Seahawks and vaunted defense.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
That's next.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
The Colts are thirteen and a half point underdogs, but
Lions Rams is great Packers, Broncos, great Chargers. Chief Maybe
we finally put a steak into the Chiefs, but the
Chiefs are favored by three and a half. And then
the Bills at the Patriots is spicy as well. If
(02:12):
I have multiple TVs, I gotta have the Colts and
the Seahawks on. But you're going to have and I'm
looking at the window here, Chiefs probably would be four o'clock,
Broncos four o'clock, Lions at the Rams four o'clock, And
then are they going to have those earlier.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Yes, Paul Chargers Chiefs a one pm Eastern game, oh.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Surprisingly, Okay, Bill's Patriots will be a one o'clock Okay,
So you got Packers Broncos, Lions, Rams, Colts, Seahawks. If
Philip Rivers is the starting quarterback, if you do priority lists, there,
where are you putting Colt's Seahawks. Comparing that with Packers Broncos, Lions, Rams,
(03:01):
Lions Rams is great. Lions are getting five and a
half at the Rams. But then the Packers are favored
at Denver, which is interesting. And then you got the
Colts against the Seahawnks. All right, come on in. You know,
when ever somebody says I've seen everything, you have it
not in sports. I mean crazy things happen all the time.
(03:22):
I mean the fact that Indiana's playing for a national
championship and going to have the Heisman Trophy winner. You
thought you would say, okay, here's another one. If I
would have said to you twenty years ago, you know,
Indiana is going to have the Heisman Trophy winner, and
Vanderbilt will have a Heisman Trophy candidate, and Indiana is
going to be the number one team in football, you'd
(03:45):
be going no way, not possible. But both of these
schools great stories this year. And that's the quick turnaround
that you can have with nil collectibles, the portal, all
of that. And you've seen that with Indiana, certainly with
what Kurt Signetti has done. And I'm going to say
this again, and I'm not trying to disparage what Dion
(04:07):
did at Colorado, but boy to the media make a
big deal about what Dion did at Colorado. Kurt Signetti
did that times a thousand at Indiana, and there's very
little fanfare for Kurt Signetti because he's not going to
get clicks. Indiana's not going to get clicks. Dion is
going to get clicks. And the media plays and had
(04:30):
played to that, you know, game days out there and
he's just taking a one win team and they're winning
four games and then they had a bigger turnaround after that,
and you did have the Heisman Trophy winner. But Kurt
Signetti is going to play for a national championship, or
at least he's in the mix. They're the number one
team in the country. They have the Heisman Trophy winner
as well. I don't want to undersell what he did
(04:52):
at Indiana. Deon did a wonderful job. Dion brings eyeballs,
he gets clicks. But Urt Signetti staying at Indiana Penn
State was going to offer him probably whatever he wanted,
and he said, nope, I'm going to stay here and
sign that what nine year deal. But that's it's incredible
to think about that as a possibility in college football.
(05:15):
And you're doing it in the Big Ten. So it's
not like you're an outlier SMU or Boise State or
Arizona State. You're doing it in the Big Ten and
you're going to have the Heisman Trophy winner. They did
announce the four players who will go to New York.
Jeremiah Love, you got Mendoza, you got Pavilla, and then
you got saying they're all going to New York. Those
(05:37):
are the Heisman finalists. I'm not allowed to say who
I voted for. They said, you know, can you wait
until after the ceremony, So and due respect to that,
I will give you who I voted. You know, you
list three players. You can list three players, and I did.
I listed three players. So eight seven seven three DP

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Gangs all here, Fritzy Seat and Marv Paula, Yours Truly
and the backroom guys. Notre Dame as a press conference
coming up at noon Eastern now that was scheduled. We
had Pete Babakua he is the athletic director at Notre Dame.
He of course came on yesterday and talked about, you know,
the damage that was done between the relationship between Notre
(07:11):
Dame and the ACC. Speculation now once again speculation. I
don't know anything about this. I have inquired, I didn't
get responses back from my two sources. Is Notre Dame
planning a bigger picture here? Is Notre Dame going to
say to the ACC, maybe, starting in the new year,
(07:32):
we're going to take all of our balls and go home.
We're going to take all of our sports and take
it out of the ACC. It certainly felt that way
that there was. Notre Dame was hot with what happened.
And I'll go back to a source of mine who
knows what went on in that college football playoff committee
meeting on Saturday and said that the ACC spent three
(07:56):
hours of the committee's time talking about Notre Dame and
my and Notre Dame thinks, hey, did you guys fight
for us? We're kind of in the ACC, but we're not.
And it's almost like if this was a CD, if
this was music, it'd be the ACC feat Notre Dame.
That's kind of what the ACC is. But the ACC
(08:18):
went to bat for Miami, and once again, I have
no problem Miami getting in. I have a problem with
the logic of this is where we had Notre Dame,
this is where we had Miami and nothing really changed
until it changed. And Alabama not dropping after getting blown
out the SEC title game. Those are the only things
(08:39):
I'm questioning. You can put in other schools in there.
It could be the other way around. If Miami was
ranked in front of Notre Dame for weeks and weeks
and weeks and weeks and weeks, and all of a sudden,
Notre Dame jumps them, people be in an uproar, right,
Oh Notre Dame preferential treatment. Okay, So just be fair
to the situation, which is what I'm trying to be.
(09:01):
I don't like that Notre Dame's not playing in a
bowl game. I don't like the possibility of them saying, hey,
we don't like what you did. We're taking our sports
out of the ACC. But you know, the thing I
thought of is if you're Notre Dame and you say
to the ACC, ac ciya, we're going to the Big Ten.
We're going to take all of our sports to the
(09:21):
Big Ten and we're going to try to do a
partial schedule with the Big Ten with Notre Dame football.
Is that where we're headed? Because it felt like so
Petelevaqua comes on. I have a relationship with him, and
he does that interview and he tells me how he
feels about the acc and the damage is that you
(09:44):
know is done and you know when you have the
athletic director make a declaration like that, it doesn't feel
like they're going to go quietly here. It feels like
there's going to be an announcement coming up here at
noon Eastern, but we'll be off the air. But that
would be my speculation. And once again I have I'm
(10:04):
not reporting anything other than let me think about this
and add logic to this and what exactly what he
was he saying to me and what does this mean
in a bigger picture here?
Speaker 3 (10:15):
All right, we'll get phone calls eight seven to seven
to three.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
DP Show email address dpat Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle
a DP show Reggie Miller. A little bit later on,
we'll have more on the Eagles subpar performance last night,
more on the possibility of Philip Rivers being the starting
quarterback for the Colts. Unbelievable, satan. What's the poll question
from the first hour of the program?
Speaker 5 (10:39):
Well, why don't we start right there with Philip Rivers
and the Colts. Philip coming back to quarterback the Colts
is a great idea and terrible idea.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Why don't we play great idea? Terrible idea?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Oh, it's kind of a sad idea that you've gotten
to that point is this would have been Riley Leonard's,
you know, time to shine. But now he still could play.
He got injured in that game over the weekend, he
banged up his knee. He scored a touchdown, and at
(11:12):
least he gives you a quarterback who is, you know,
in the twenties, in his twenties, not in his forties.
Philip Rivers could be Riley Leonard's dad, and maybe he's
gonna be out there playing. It's not like Philip Rivers
lost arm strength or mobility because he didn't have either
one of them.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
And you're gonna have him.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
In Seattle against that defense, Oh god, you're gonna have
He's gonna be arriving in a walker and then you know,
like Seattle's defense is going to be helping him up,
you know, walking him to the curb here across the crosswalk.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
All right, so that's one pole question. What else do
you have?
Speaker 6 (11:51):
It is?
Speaker 5 (11:51):
We got another one here from Paul Man. They're in trouble.
That's the question. Got of statement. Okay for the comment
in there, man, Man, they're in trouble. Okay, all Colts, Chiefs, Eagles, Ravens. Man,
they are all in trouble.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
Yeah, yeah, Colts, you know the Eagles.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I didn't have a good feeling to start the year,
and I you know, watching last night, you can't have
a good feeling now. The schedule isn't demanding, but you're
trying to figure out where you're going to be in
the NFC playoffs? Are you going to host a playoff game?
You're gonna win your division? Then you got to see
(12:30):
where do we stack up here? Are they the second
best team right now? I think the Rams are the
best team of the NFC, But you got the Niners
and you got Seattle. Green Bay is really good too.
I put green Bay over the Eagles right now as well.
The fact that green Bay is going to Denver in
green Bay is a two and a half point favorite.
(12:51):
Man that tells you a lot about what Vegas thinks.
So the Chiefs, we know they're done done ish Hey,
until they're eliminated, they're in it. Because if you said, okay,
if you said the Chiefs made the playoffs, where would
you put them in the pecking order of the AFC
(13:12):
of chances to go to the Super Bowl? Would you
put them over the Bills? Would you put them over
the Patriots? Once again, the Chiefs are going to be
playing on the road. They're not going to win the division,
which if they played the Chargers, if they played the Broncos, like,
they still have that impact at least that thought.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Of damn they got fifteen Yes, Marvin.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
You just named all those teams, and I'm like, the
Chiefs are the favorite.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
Yeah, Vegas would still love them if they're going to
make the playoffs. Vegas would still love them to be
able to go to the super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
All right?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Any other I like both of those poll questions. There
anything else, Seaton Before we take a break. I think
we're going to ride with those two for the first hour. Okay,
we'll talk about the Chargers as well, justin Herbert playing
through a broken hand, and they played well enough that
secondary is really good. You know, the Chargers defense is
really good. And you're just o maryon Hampton what they
(14:10):
needed him. And when you think of all the injuries
with the Chargers, the fact that they're where they are
right now says a whole lot. Here's Jim Harbaugh talking
about just how big that win was last night.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
This is definitely, I don't maybe the best best feeling,
you know, just a wonderful, wonderful feeling of winning and
thrill of victory. It's certainly in the discussion I put
in the discussion the birth of my seven children, my marriage,
you know, in the conversation, in the conversation, just joyful.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
He is a character. He's a character. All Right, we're
gonna take a break. Phone calls, they're welcome.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
We'll get to those coming up, Reggie a little bit
later on, and uh, we're back after this on The

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Away if you're watching on peacock. I got a Lane
Kiffin bobblehead that was sent in the mail to me.
But here is actually I got two of them. This
is from a billion Oxford and he sent me two
of them. One of them has a broken hand and
he said that that was a casualty when he found
(16:01):
out that Lane Kiffen was leaving to go to LSU.
So he sent me one that is, you know, completely
intact that we're showing now. But then he also gave
me the one that I have that I'm holding here,
and it's got Lane Kiffen with one hand, Yes.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
Paul, And that's a new thin Lane Kiffen with the
visor and shredfest.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
I think that's Poloti lane Kiffen. Yeah, palates. So he
says that he gave me two Lane Kiffen bobble heads.
They were given away with the purchase of a chicken
on a stick at the Exxon gas station in Oxford,
and he hopes that we could find a home here.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
He said that the.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Broken hand on one of the dolls was not the
result of any outburst of emotion from this past weekend,
but a cat incident that occurred years ago.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
So all right, thank you, Billy, Yes, PAULI.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Who invented sports bobbleheads? Have they been around forever?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Well? How long is forever?
Speaker 8 (17:02):
Like?
Speaker 4 (17:03):
Do you remember them when you were a kid. I
don't really remember them when I was a kid. Bobblehead's
being a toy or a gift.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I remember getting one at ESPN, a bobblehead for me,
and that had to be thirty five years ago. Thirty
a good thirty plus years ago, Yes, tod, Yeah, I'm
with Paulie.
Speaker 6 (17:29):
I don't remember that growing up as all. I know,
we're in our mid fifties.
Speaker 9 (17:31):
But you know, there's there's wind up toys, and there's
things that maybe wiggle or shake a little bit, but
I don't remember that.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
It was always about like trading cards and things like that.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I always felt like every bobblehead looked the same. That
you'd be like, oh, look at that one, and then
somebody would say, oh, there's a George W. Bush and
then there's you, and it looked just the same, and
I'd be like, all right, let's maybe differentiate here a
little bit.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
And they've gotten a lot more. I mean I got
a ton of.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Them behind seat and in Fritzy, Yeah, PAULI.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
The first bobblehead sports I could find created was back
in the mid sixties major League Baseball, leading up to
the World Series, they randomly over a couple of years
did bibbleheads of Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Roberto Clemente, and
Roger Marris, and it never really caught on until the
eighties with other sports.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
You know what, I remember seeing those. I remember seeing those,
and I probably should have kept a couple of those.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I kept everything, and then there's certain things where I go,
why didn't I keep that or those? Dylan just sent
me a crazy stat and this is courtesy of bleacher Report.
Jalen Hurts. His QBR last night was thirty one point three.
He had four interceptions. He also lost to fumble. He
had an interception and lost to fumble on the same play.
(18:48):
Here's your QBR. If you spike the ball every single play,
so all you do is spike the ball every single play,
your QBR is thirty nine point six. Your QBR was
spiking the ball every single play, would have been better
than Jalen Hurts last night at thirty one point three.
(19:22):
Jalen Hurts first player to commit two turnovers on the
same play since nineteen seventy eight, when the NFL began
tracking play by play data. Four interceptions, one fumble. One
of the interceptions was not his fault. AJ Brown kind
of short handed, it had alligator arms there. But that
charger defense is really good. Secondary's really good. And they
(19:45):
got after him. They got after him last night. But
the Eagles got after you know, justin Herbert as well.
Speaker 10 (19:51):
Well.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
They have seven sacks.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
You get seven sacks and you get Saquon Barkley one
hundred and twenty yards and you don't win that game. Now,
they kept it close, but you got to win those games.
Let's see a couple of phone calls in here, Greg
and Michigan leads us off. Good morning, Greg, what's on
your mind?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Today.
Speaker 8 (20:10):
Good morning Cama man, mister positive. Hey, gotta love my Josh,
Elvis Allen and the Bills. Let me tell you and
real quick, Stephen A. Smith mentioned you yesterday in the show.
It's fantastic. I don't exactly know what it was, but
put you out there. Hey. And if you ever talked politics,
get my buddy Chris Clomo. But here's the thing I
(20:30):
got to ask you. Might Detroit Lions, the Bears and
the Packers are playing great. Do they have a fighter's chance?
Speaker 3 (20:42):
I mean, of course they do. That's a really good team,
PAULI give me the schedule.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
They got the Rams coming up this weekend in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
At the Rams, hosts of Steelers, at the Vikings, at
the Bears to end.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
It be tough, gonna be tough.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
But I still think they're better than the Bears and
the Packers.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Yeah, Paul, Packers have Broncos, Bears, Ravens, Vikings. Okay, somewhat
friendly after the Broncos game.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, Colts started out seven and one.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
How many teams start out seven and one and don't
make the playoffs because that Colt's strength to schedule is
really really difficult, and you don't even have a quarterback.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
And if you do, he's forty four years of age.
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Either that or you got a twenty three year old
rookie and Riley Leonard. Either way doesn't look good. This
was a feel good story. This was this was a
story that was kind of rivaling the Indiana Hoosiers, like,
all right, who is this team?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
You know?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
There was similarities of parallel like nobody thought this was
going to happen.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Hey, we found our quarterback. Our running back's really good.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
We can win this division in seven and one, and
now I don't think they're going to make the playoffs.
Thanks for the phone call, Greg Buddha is back from
San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
I boota.
Speaker 11 (22:12):
What ut DP Happy Tuesday, Dan, I am calling in
today with an enthusiasm unknown to man time. Baby, let's go, Dan.
We all know the Chargers that fooled you before, but
seeing them pull it out last night without any crazy
chargery was kind of refreshing and fun to watch. And please, please, please, Dad,
(22:34):
let's have Phil Rivers come back. It's all about content, baby,
and Dan, I was thinking about this yesterday to the
whole college football fiasco that is, I mean today Bobby
Knight must be rolling in his grave watching all of this.
Indiana's rank number one, Notre Dame ranked at an ironic
(22:54):
fritzy eleven. And honestly, I watched him listen to all
of the explanations by all the professionals, Dan, and it
just seems like a like a version of Doctor Phil
explained a bunch of nothing about a bunch of nothing,
and at the end of the day, it's just all
not God.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Thank you, Buddha, Christ and Syracuse.
Speaker 12 (23:15):
Hi, Chris, Hey, Thanks Dan, Hey, A couple things for you.
Speaker 8 (23:20):
Hey.
Speaker 12 (23:20):
You know, the first few years of the BCS and
it's fourteen format, they had a hard time finding four
teams that were worthy of being in the playoffs, and
a lot of those games ended up being blowouts. Now,
with then I on the transfer portal, the twelve team
format isn't enough, and I think it's great for college
football and especially college football fans. And Dan, your interview
(23:40):
with Notre Dame's ad yesterday was played everywhere and kind
of like your Russell Wilson interview a few years ago.
It seems like whenever a high profile executive, coach or
player wants to get a message out through the media.
You're the one they trust to get it out there
in histry Urine, I, I don't know if there's.
Speaker 10 (24:03):
A bigger compliment.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Well, thank you, Chris Now. I appreciate the opportunity to
be able to ask the questions. The question is will
they answer those questions? Because I can ask the Notre
Dame Athletic director questions about the acc leaving the acc
what does he mean when he says, you know the
damage that's done, but he has to be willing to answer.
It's like Russell Wilson had been on the show twenty
(24:27):
times prior to the one time he came on and
was actually honest, actually gave me true emotion, true feelings.
But that's that's the you know, it's the hit or
miss that you have with this, and sometimes you hit,
sometimes you miss. Zach and Knoxville, Hi, Zach, what's on
your mind today?
Speaker 13 (24:49):
ADP, Thanks for taking my call. Sorry about the technical
difficulties yesterday. I just wanted to do address. I'm not
saying you're given Notre Dame a pass, but let's to
be clear on something. They are not a victim, and
I understand the whole hoodwinks being ranked ahead of Miami.
But if you look at their schedule, I don't think
(25:10):
that they've beaten anybody better than Auburn, who Alabama obviously
beating the Iron Bowl. And I'm not saying Alabama should
be in either. I just think that the coverage seems
to be a little bit of Notre Dames isn't getting in.
But they didn't play anybody at the end of the year,
and the two teams that you played that were worth
(25:30):
a crap you didn't win.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, but Zach, I'm not giving Notre Dame a pass.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
If this was reversed and it was Miami ranked in
front of Notre Dame for five weeks and then all
of a sudden, Notre Dame jumped them, you don't think
the media would have been all over Notre Dame. The
media given them preferential treatment. I'm not given it doesn't matter.
I couldn't care less that if it's Notre Dame or
(25:58):
if it's Miami, if it's all Obama, I got to
be fair to what is going on, and I don't
think it was fair to the system that they've created.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
That's all. I'm not giving him a pass.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
I gave him the opportunity to explain why they're mad
at the ACC. Did the ACC say things disparaging things
about Notre Dame in the College Football Playoffs selection committee?
That I mean, that's what I'm curious about. Not I
give them a hall pass. What's the hall pass I'm
giving them. I understand why they're frustrated, but if it
(26:36):
was reversed, I would understand why Miami was frustrated. This
isn't about Notre Dame. If Alabama, Alabama didn't move and
they got blown out by Georgia. And I'll go back
to what I said to you. That happened last week
when I talked to a source who said they, in
(26:57):
their minds, they thought that the committee was setting up
Notre Dame to be disappointed. Okay, that's from a source.
And what happened, Notre Dame got disappointed. So this isn't
a hall pass for Notre Dame. They should play in
a bull game. I'm disappointed they're not. I understand why
(27:20):
they're not, but I wish they would have. They may
leave the ACC, Okay, they may go to the Big
Ten with their other sports, Okay, but I'm not sitting
here playing favorites and I did push back with Pete, like,
you know, why are you doing this?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
You know, even when I said, oh, it sounds like
sour grapes or somebody might say that, and it does
sound like that with a portion of this your Notre Dame.
You can be bigger than this, You can be better
than this. And it didn't sound that way yesterday at times.
But I understand the frustration. Take Notre Dame out of
(27:59):
that and just put two schools in there. Your school
is ahead of somebody for five weeks and then and
nothing changed, and then it changed, and your reaction would
be what And that's all I'm asking you to do.
Understand the situation. And this is on the college football
(28:21):
playoff committee and whatever the fallout is. Maybe there's change
because of this, But in no way do I sit
here and go man, Notre Dame, how do I help them?
Notre Dame doesn't need my help? Andrew in Washington, Hi Andrew,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 14 (28:45):
Hey Andrew, good morning, Dan Dennet's thanks for taking my call.
I agree with you. You didn't show any favoritism yesterday
to Pete Babaqua. That was just an excellent interview. I
echo the sentiments of Christ and Syracuse where you were
like a conduit for the whole nation as far as
how Miami felt. And in that I mean, I think
it's just the latest Catholics versus Convicts game and Miami
(29:08):
revenge that two point conversion they lost by in nineteen
eighty eight by jumping up in the thing, and so you.
Speaker 10 (29:13):
Know, hey, rivalries die hard.
Speaker 14 (29:15):
But one other thing that I noticed was permanent damage
is a pretty uh, you know, important term in any relationships.
So I think that you know your your sentiment where
you're trying to get some information on if they're leaving
the a SEC, it's probably going to be true. Last night,
I've seen some reports that the Eagles are still using
a Shane Styke and offense. I don't know if you
(29:35):
heard that. They haven't really changed the terminology and the
only difference between this year and last year was Saquon
Barkley was a new weapon for him. So I don't
know if you've heard any of that. And Dan, real quick,
if you don't mind, I haust out of the day.
So last night, Derek Queen scored thirty three points, grabbed
ten rebounds, and dissed out ten assists last night for
the Pelicans to become the only the fifth NBA player
(29:57):
to have a thirty point triple double before the age
of twenty one, joining Lebron, Luca, Yared Box and Wemby.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Steat of the day, Sat of the Day, that beast
stad of the day, stat of the day?
Speaker 6 (30:12):
Here comes that?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
What stat of the day? Now?
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Did Chris say that he's the first rookie since Wemby?
But also or he's in that category with Wemby and
Lebron and who else?
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Luca?
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Okay, Austin Reeves had a triple double in twenty twenty two,
a thirty point triple double in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 6 (30:37):
But I think he said before the age of twenty one.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Oh, okay, well then, and they traded up to get
Derek Queen they did. Yeah, and he's played pretty well
for them. I didn't necessarily see it in college. Was
he at NC State?
Speaker 3 (30:50):
He's a Maryland Maryland, Maryland?
Speaker 4 (30:52):
Okay, a little bit of a breakout year last year.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Yeah, Let's see a couple more phone calls, Robin Saint Louis, Hi, Rob,
what's on your mind today?
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Dan?
Speaker 10 (31:04):
You know I've got two things for you today on
one's a Question and one's a comment. This whole thing
with Notre Dame, this is the best thing that can
happen for college football, and Notre Dame deserves exactly what
they're getting. This is called come up and you don't
want it to play by the rules. You want your
own little station. You want to be on prime time
(31:25):
every Saturday night. This is what you're going to get.
People are gonna come after you, and this is exactly
what happened. Now. I got a question for you. Last night,
I finally got to see a Monday night football game
on ABC because I don't have cable. These people are
losing a lot of viewers, aren't they. How So, well,
(31:46):
if you can't watch the game on ESPN because you
don't have ESPN, you just don't watch the game, or
you go to maybe a go to a bar and
you don't listen to the sounds so you don't see
the advertising.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Is basic cable though?
Speaker 10 (32:01):
Well? Who has basic kidnymore?
Speaker 2 (32:04):
Well, okay, thank you, Ron, I don't know where he's going.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Yeah, I don't know. I got YouTube TV, Yeah, paulin.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Sunday Night football, Monday Night football are the too easiest
sports to find an America.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Probably, Yeah, Thursday, good luck with that. Yeah, good luck
with that.
Speaker 5 (32:24):
By the way, Notre Dames come up, and this is
going to back them into an unbelievable deal, probably with
the Big Ten.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Yeah, really showed them. Yeah, I don't play.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
I hope you know me well enough by listening and
doing this for forty years.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
I'm not playing favorites here. You know, you just have
to tell the story.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
My job as an interviewer is to be a conduit
to information that somebody wants to give to my audience,
that's all.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
And asking the right.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Questions, okay, it's I take great pride in it, and
you want to get the right answers, and you can
challenge in a way that you don't raise your voice.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
That's all.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
That's the way I was taught the way I continue
to do it. But if you think I gave Notre
Dame a pass, that's on you. It was never any
preconceived notion that I'm going to somehow be a soft
landing for them, because I'm telling you right now, I
don't agree with them not playing in a Bowl game.
I don't like it. It feels a little bit more
(33:28):
elitist and they may bounce out of the ACC because
of this, but I do understand where they're ranked. Take
Notre Dame out of this and put your school in there,
and if it happened to you, you'd be shouting from
the mountaintops.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
You would be yeah pulling.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Based off all the reports, the Notre Dame team and
players made the decision not to play in the bowl
game within an hour of the selection show. Do you
think if they had a little more time, they may
have realized this is the last time eighty percent of
them are ever going to play competitive football and he
with their friends and teammates and get a week down
in Florida. And I know it's an exhibition game, but
(34:05):
to spend one more week or three more weeks of practice.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Yeah matter how many of your teammates were not going
to play in that game.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
But those guys are okay, then the other ninety five
can play.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
I always think you should play another game if you can,
because if Jeremiah Love is not going to play, I
want to see who is replacements going to be. I
want to be ready. I always want to have one
more game as a coach. I want to get guys
in there, playing in you know, real games there. But
I understand your frosty because of this, and you're going
(34:37):
to be playing in the pop Tard Bowl and nothing
to gain.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
If you beat BYU. Yes see.
Speaker 8 (34:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
The timing of that does sort of suggest that it's
an emotional reaction, which isn't really the best way to
do that.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
And all of this feels emotional. I'm wondering if you said,
a Notre Dame, let's wait a week and then have
Pete Levaka, the athletic director, address the media or the
players get to vote on this that you know, you
remove yourself from that if you say, hey, we didn't
make the playoffs, we don't want to play. Okay, I
(35:10):
get that, all right, let me take a break. We
got our play of the day up next.

Intercepted, game over intercepted game over, game over the forth
interception Tony Jefferson unbelievable, uncedes it.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Courtesy of the Chargers Radio Network. Chargers have won five
of their last six. Here's the stat there, holding their
opponents to twenty points or less in each of those
five wins. We tend to talk about the coach and
the quarterback, talk about the defense with the Chargers still
driving that trusty old ride, keep it looking sharp with
Mako from dense to faded paint. They got you covered. Literally,
(36:17):
get a free estimate today? Uh oh, better get Maco.
Devin in Phoenix, Hey Devin, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 16 (36:26):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (36:27):
What's up? Dan Ayman?
Speaker 16 (36:28):
Six?
Speaker 17 (36:29):
First time callers six to one in a Husky two
fifty five? Hey, after your awesome interview, which, by the way,
I think we underestimate some silence in some of those
questions that you asked.
Speaker 18 (36:43):
I thought it was awesome.
Speaker 17 (36:44):
We all feel it, you know, and you ask something like, well,
how so after Pete Ba Bakwa's response to one of
the questions.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
But my question for.
Speaker 17 (36:53):
You is, have we thought about what would have happened
if Virginia had won that game and gotten into represent
the ACC with all of the money, the talks, the
contracts both in the room that are vying for ACC
and what that money means not only to a team
but to an entire conference in the landscape. I just wonder,
if Virginia had won, does that allow Notre Dame to
(37:15):
stay put versus being moved down and sitting on their couch.
Speaker 3 (37:19):
So just a thought, and thanks for all you guys
do to keep me laughing every morning. Have a good one.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
Thank you, Devin. Well, Miami moved ahead of Notre Dame
and they would have gotten in. I'm guessing, you know,
was Virginia guaranteed of getting into the playoffs if they
won the ACC?
Speaker 4 (37:38):
Yes, because they were ranked going into the game. What
was their ranking though, Yes, Marvin, I know they were
tending two.
Speaker 8 (37:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Yeah, and it's not to say they weren't worthy of it.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
But I wasn't following, you know, I was actually rooting
for Duke to win because it would just be chaos
the five loss team is in the ACC title game.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
Yeah, Pauli, Virginia was ranked seventeenth in the country going
into the game. Okay, so that means they're automatic. I
gotta check what would have been out.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
Okay, it's hard to keep up with the math of
all of this or the logic, I should say, or
the lack thereof.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Becky in Wisconsin. Hi, Becky, what's on your mind?
Speaker 16 (38:30):
Hey, good March guys. I just wanted to say Happy
Holidays everybody, and I got a quick wager for Todd.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
Oh.
Speaker 16 (38:36):
I was hoping, since I am a big Tiger fan,
I could do a straight up win loss at Pie
to the Face this weekend for a Sunday's game.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Todd Green Bay, Denver in Denver, pie to the face
with Becky and wiscons.
Speaker 9 (38:50):
Let's do it tough one and they're due for a
loss of the rig ten straight but you know what,
they're in Denver.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
I'm hoping that will give us that mile high magic edge.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
Okay, all right, you got to bet there, Becky.
Speaker 16 (39:02):
Thanks all right.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Adam in La Hi, Adam, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 18 (39:10):
Hey, good morning, DP appreciate you. Hey, just had a
quick question and then it's out of the day. Quick
question would be, since Norder Dame didn't get in, if
you thought that they should get in, who would you
have taken out? Would it had been James Madison Tulane.
And then if it was both, which I think it
should have been both, I don't see why I do
Tulane and James matters both, man, I get the rules, whatever,
But would it.
Speaker 8 (39:29):
Have been Texas?
Speaker 18 (39:29):
Would it have been Vandy? And then my quick set
of the day was yeah, confirmed nineteen seventy eight, It
says last Sportsborough says that Jalen Hurts the first player
in NFL history to throw an interception, hand and fumble
on the same play. Pretty crazy to see, but yeah,
go ahead and tell me what you feel about those
two teams that you would have had it instead of
Tulaine and Bandy. Thanks.
Speaker 3 (39:49):
I'm glad they got in.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Like I still root for the underdog because there's going
to be a time when these teams won't get a
chance to play in the playoffs, because I do think
that we'll go to a more professional model.
Speaker 4 (40:01):
Yes, Paulie, there has to be some type of reward
for winning your way in with a group of five
or you just get rid of the group of five
conferences and just tell them you have no place in
this playoff.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
Yeah, and you know, we saw that with Boise Stay,
we saw that with Arizona State, now I don't think
they deserve first round byes like they did last year.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Tulane and JMU. They lose their coaches.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
Now they do come back, I think to be able
to coach, which I'm glad that they're doing that.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
It's just been and we talked about this six weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
I was informed by somebody who said a sort said,
there's going to be so much upheaval. Well, we've seen
upheaval and it's not over yet. I don't know what
Notre Dame's going to say in two hours?
Speaker 5 (40:44):
Yeah, seton, Yeah, I mean I find the press conference,
the timing of that to be pretty interesting. Just with
the interview and the press conference. It's a crazy what
is it, seventy two hours or whatever since the announcement.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yeah, I know, feels like something, something seismic is coming.
And this was almost the we I'm going to do
this interview with you, and he gave me a headline.
Now that brings more eyeballs to this press conference Notre
Dame's going to have in two hours from now. Is
there a chance Philip Rivers going to play Sunday starts
(41:23):
Sunday for the Colts against Seattle Albert Breer will join us.
What's Wrong with the Eagles South Palantonio stops by, and
Reggie Miller will join us as well. Busy two Hours
coming up with Fritzi sat and Marv Pauley. Yours truly
