of the hour. That is always fun. It's the Trayvon
Diggs addition again. Trayvon Diggs, of course, unfortunately out for
(01:06):
the rest of the season. The great Dallas Cowboys cornerback
the New York Giants San Francisco forty nine ers locked
at three points apiece early in the second quarterbout midway
through about eight and a half minutes left. But the
Giants are playing with the Niners and so that that
(01:27):
is a good sign for them.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Brock Purty looking yeah, mediocre.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Missing some throws, could have had a couple of interceptions
his receivers healthy mount on those.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
But he's got to be better.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
But Christian McCaffrey is having a terrific game so far.
So we'll see three three Niners, Giants. Rob interesting story in.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
The zone in the red zone. Yeah, Marlon Humphrey.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Was talking about Bill Belichick recently and Rob g let's
hear what that sounds.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Is Belichick elite or is Tom Brady elite? That's the
million dollar question. It's looking more like Brady, but it
is what it is. I don't know if Belichick was
ever Dagham dirty. Wow, you gotta check that, you check
they're washed, that had been dirty.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
My gosh, Belichick was never whoa whoa whoa.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Okay, yeah, I'm saying Tom Brady that they were together,
though you can't say it was one of the.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
But time one moment without him.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
Like if this year still goes down, it's like, is
that three that's been losing seasons, this is the year.
It's the same for bam a it's all pendings, but
it's looking like some.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
People are getting washed. Rob what are your thoughts on that? Chris?
Rob g what what uh? Podcast was that?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
That was his own one PODCA was don't listen to
this at any time. It's called Theline Podcast.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
Yeah, okay, it's a comedy podcast. Is that what this is? A?
I mean, Chris, it's embarrassing some of these guys really like, like, can.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
You do that? Does not like these athletes?
Speaker 6 (03:17):
I don't because Chris, you could have an opinion if
you want to, but to totally discount Bill Belichick and
the top five defenses that he put together when they
beat the Rams in the Super Bowl, Chris, the last
one that Brady and Belichick. Brady had no touchdowns. The
Rams came in averaging thirty five points a game and
they scored three points on an eighty nine yard field goal. Like, like,
(03:40):
you gotta give the guy some credit.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (03:42):
I'm not saying if you want to say who had
a better impact on the Patriots, Tom Brady or Bill Belichick,
But to say to discount them totally like he had
nothing to do with it, it's mind boggling. When Tom
Brady had his great comeback against Atlanta, guess what defense
and shut out the Falcons Chriss in the second half.
(04:03):
It was Bill Belichick's defense. That's all I'm saying. Like,
like you can have an opinion and say you would
pick Brady over Belichick, That's not what I'm arguing. But
to act as if he has nothing to do with it,
then then he goes somebody trying to say, well, Brady
won without him. Belichick also was a defensive coordinator when
the Giants won two Super.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Bowls in New York. But my point is he won.
He did win, but we don't we don't. We don't
put reing.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
No, but I'm talking about he was a part of
that defense with Lawrence Taylor and all those people who
were involved. That's all I'm saying. No, it's a part
of his resume. It's a part of his way.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
But a lot of guys that aren't good head coach
Josh McDaniels, how's he is a head coach.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Now, I'm not saying Belichick.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I'm just saying to winning it as a coordinator or not, I'm.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Saying that's a card of his resume that you cannot discount.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
He makes it like he didn't do anything as my Yeah,
I'm not defending Humphrey.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
All I'm saying is I would I disagree with throwing
in Belichick's ring with san fran or with.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
The Giants two wings, Yeah, both of them.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah, because I don't throw when I talk about Josh
McDaniels as a head coach, I don't throw in all
the rings he won in New England as offensive coordinator.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
And so I'm not Now let me get to this.
I disagree obviously with Marlon Humphrey. Here's the deal. And
I've been critical of.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Belichick as far as what he's done without Brady, which
is not much. Just keeping it real, He's coached for
ten seasons without Tom Brady's made the playoffs twice.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
So, but here's the deal. You cannot take away from
Bill Belichick what he has accomplished.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
First of all, I'll start here Rob even though I believe,
like if you have to, if you're forced to pick
one who was more responsible for the dynasty, both of
them deserved their flowers and accolades. I would say Brady because,
like I said, what Belichick's done without Brady not much.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Two playoffs ten years and Brady going to Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
And winning it without Belichick with a seven and nine
team the year before. But that does not mean you
have to take away and act like Belichick is chop Liver.
Even if he didn't do anything in Cleveland before he
got Brady.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
What he did with Brady, he deserves Robbie.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
Look.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
As much as I good as I think Tom Brady is,
he would not be who he is without Belichick. Belichick
gave him the chance stuck with them when Drew Bledsoe,
who was a pro bowler four times, I believe, came
back and stuck with Brady, And like you said, at
that point in his career, Brady was a game manager
(06:59):
and Check's defenses.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Were huge, huge, the driving part of their success.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Later on, you know a few years later Brady became
this great passer and prolific passer. But the first few
Super Bowls there was a largely the defense. And the
fact is this, right, you can look at a lot
of the great coaches, Rob and when they didn't have
the great players, the Hall of Fame players, they didn't win.
(07:28):
That We don't take away from Rob Greg Popovich. He
just had four horrific seasons in San Francisco and San
Antonio without Tim Duncan.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
We're not gonna take away what he did with Duncan.
Go look at Don Shulers the end of his career,
and Don Shuler was a great coach with Baltimore first
and then the Dolphins. Yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I think Tom Landry right and struggled late in his career.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I mean he got fired, you know, Jerry Jones. So
you can't.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
The point is you just can't take away and Bill
Belichick obviously a defensive, terrific defensive coach. But my point, Rob,
is just that even if you want to be critical
of him, you want to say Brady was more responsible,
the fact is Belichick has won six Super Bowls, and
(08:23):
no matter how you slice it, like we said, you
can look at all the great coaches, Rob, and once
they lost a lot of their great players, most of
them are many of them, their success you know, was gone.
I mean Tom Landry, the great Tom Lardry right, four
of his last five years, Rob, he didn't make the
playoffs with the Cowboys and he was fired, right and
(08:47):
so but nobody takes that away from you don't say
oh without star backing.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Tony dor said he didn't do anything right. I just
I just think for that just doesn't make any sense
to me. Like I said, you could pick who you
think it had the more most impact if you want.
I'm not gonna argue that it's everybody's opinion, okay, but
but to discounter guy when Chris during his Super bowls,
can I give you the defenses where they were ranked
(09:13):
in the NFL sixth, first, second, eighth, first, and seventh.
So we're in the top ten to top eight in
all of the Super Bowl winning years. Twice they were
first overall in one second. That's pretty doing impressive.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
No no doubt. And that's again that's his strength. That's
his side of the ball. We talk about Brandon Stately,
I'm glad you brought it up. Supposed to be a
good defensive coach going the opposite.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Way, that's what that's what you look for.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Like Belichick didn't do great with the offense and all that,
but you can't tell me that he didn't have his
hands on that defense. And that's what Brandon Staley should be.
He has a stud quarterback work on the defense Chris
to get stops at the end of the games and
close out wins.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Right, and look, Rob Belichick, bottom line is a maid
man again. You can as you said, I think you
know Brady was the driving force, you know more so.
But I don't take anything from Belichick. I think he's
done winning. I don't have them making the playoffs this year.
(10:20):
I don't necessarily think he'll ever make the playoffs again.
I mean, we'll see if they get some great quarterback
to replace Mac Jones or whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
But I think their dynasty is done.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
It won't be the first time, all right, that a
great player left and a team was done winning, all right,
But that doesn't mean you can't take away from what
the man did when he had Tom Brady. Heck, Rob,
like a lot of coaches may not have discovered Brady.
I mean real talk, right, it could have easily happened.
(10:53):
He wasn't drafted high or anything. If you ever see that,
Dad bod pick, you would be looking like, is this guy?
Speaker 3 (11:00):
You know what I mean? Like, Yeah, it didn't look
that great, Chris.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Now he looks way better now, you know what, thirty
years later or whatever it did twenty five years later.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Yeah, it's so yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
I mean, I don't and I don't think Humphrey. I
mean you heard him at the end. I can't remember
exactly what he was saying. He's kind of playing around,
but you know, you throw stuff out like that and
it you know it. We say it all the time, Rob.
It is important the athletes that want to get in
this business.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
You gotta say something right, right.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You can't just protect your boys, protect the coaches you
played for, not be critical, not be honest really, but
then you also you got to be able to back
up what you say.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
And Chris, you have to protect your credibility. The credibility
because if you just go off the deep end and
just start throwing stuff out, people will not listen to you.
Rugby like this too a joke. This dude's not serious
about this.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
He said that.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
You know, that's not where you want to be saying stuff.
I agree with that. But if he made the case
and broke down why Brady was better, then you have
something that.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
People can listen.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
Go.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
You know what Humphy made me? Really think about it?
You know what I mean? Like, that's what you're looking for, right, yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:20):
I mean, you don't win six super Bowls doing nothing.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Just to me happened and.
Speaker 6 (12:27):
I'm not a big Belichick guy. I'm not gonna sity
here and act like he's not a good coach.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
I mean, rob, let's keep it real.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
I mean, I believe Tom Brady's the goat.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
He's the goat because he won so much.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
He's not the goat because he's necessarily the best we've
ever seen throw the football. But he accomplished so much,
and obviously he was great, you know, in many of
those Super Bowls, many of those Super Bowl runs, and
he's got fantastic individual stats too, but there's a certain
level of accomplishment that you just can't ignore. And Bill
(13:05):
Belichick's hit that level and then some. He's won as
many super Bowls as any franchise.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Right, and just by himself.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
But it's a joke, right that he would just kind of,
you know, trying to be cute or whatever, which is fine,
but you gotta be careful, do not hurt your credibility
so that people won't take what you say. If we
just came on here every day, Chris and just said
some outland his stuff off the top of my head,
people would not be listening to the show. Let's just
I don't care what any that they'd be like this
(13:34):
is a joke. These guys aren't serious.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
One thing, right, and you've been on the debate shows
and all that.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I'm on one. Now, first things first, The.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Thing is you have your point, have your opinion, but
you got to be able to back it up. Rob,
You know these debates will go ten minutes, fifteen minutes,
like you have to have plenty of information to back
up the point that you're making. And so if you
want to try to bring information that Bill Belichick was
(14:04):
never a good coach, then half at it. But you
gotta you know, you're gonna find much like I said,
I can find stuff to say Brady was the driving
force in my view, but I'm not gonna say Belichick
wasn't a good coach.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
And you know got lucky and so on and so forth.
All right, it's the odd couple Chris and Rob.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
You'll turn away in eight seven seven ninety nine on
Fox eight seven seven nine nine six sixty three sixty nine,
A simple question, do you agree with Marlon Humphy Humphrey.
Was Bill Belichick not an elite coach? That's the thing.
He's a He's not elite. Is he overrated? You'll turn

Speaker 9 (16:10):
Is it only one of the biggest shows of all time?
Rom I got.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Survivor That was embarrassing.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
Guys what I watched, you know, Nightcurt from nineteen twenty seven.
But Survivor, which was like a cult phenomenon for seven years.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I remember what years was surviving I remember the first year.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
I remember the first one because somebody I know from
Detroit was in that.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
The eliminated Quickerments. The brother I don't know was he.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
I didn't watch much Survivor, I remember it. Of course
I might have watched.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
You know what.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
I was too busy being the survivor in this war. Jeez,
we told you, I'm gonna keep it real. Anything passed
the late eighties, I probably ain't gonna pick you no what, I'm.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Just keeping it. I watched.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I watched stuff like you know, man, my wife and
I binge watch some stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
But you know, when you're younger.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
I even notice it with like hip hop, so I
could hear a rap song from nineteen eighty one and
remember the lyrics, But I ain't memorizing stuff like that today.
Just when you're younger, stuff you know, has more of
an impact.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
On I agree, Chris, and I said this to you
guys before. I think the last scripted TV show that
I watched on a regular basis with Seinfel and that
went off in the nineties, Am I right?
Speaker 3 (17:34):
I think that was.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Probably like late late nineties nineties. I think that was
the last one I watched, like on network.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Yeah, you know what you watch every Thursday night. That
was it? All right, we got something. We just keeping
it real, Alex. But that was good, very nice. All right?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Yeah, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox you're turned
away in on Belichick your thoughts?
Speaker 6 (17:57):
All right, let's start with Obi in Los Angeles. You're
on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 7 (18:03):
What up, Alby, mister and mister Bard? What great?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Thank you? Thank you.
Speaker 7 (18:11):
I want to say you guys are great because and
I'll quantify it by saying that you always challenge your
callers to make sure that they say what they say
and they mean it and they back up whatever they say.
So I want to say that first, the stuff about
UH coach Belichick is ridiculous. Of course, he's he's one
(18:31):
of the best bear of his I mean, you can
maybe talk about the fact that he was in a
division that was weak for a period of time. Now
you still gonna win super Bowls?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Yeah, I'm gonna say I wouldn't.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
Yeah, you know you still right, once you get into
the super Bowl, right.
Speaker 7 (18:48):
Exactly, so you gotta win. So and he's won that,
and he's been there nine times, one six Come on, I.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Mean right, it just sounds crazy, no problem.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I think the best argument against him is what he's
done out Brady, which again not much, but still he
did so much with Brady.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
That you can't I mean, you got especially when you
look at the defenses during that time too. There's no doubt.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Early on Brady was the game. Craig in Houston, you're
on the couple of Fox Sports Rader.
Speaker 10 (19:17):
What up, Craig, Hey, guys, how you doing this evening?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Doing great? What's up?
Speaker 7 (19:21):
Good?
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (19:22):
Rob Our just gon hit us?
Speaker 10 (19:23):
Do what you gonna say. You're not gonna pooh pool on.
Speaker 11 (19:25):
Belichick ain't gonna.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Defend it now, you know, right, don't don't pooh poo.
You know I'm not I'm the poo poo king.
Speaker 7 (19:34):
I was.
Speaker 10 (19:36):
I think it takes both man, you know, and I'm
not a Patriot fan and in any way, but uh uh,
players win, but you gotta give coaches. We've seen talented
teams without the leadership at the coaching. I mean, hey,
look at Buffalo. You know they're missing Day Bowl. You know, uh,
they're gonna have issues without him. But I'll tell you what,
(19:58):
as the stories come out about the relationship between Brady
and Belichick, I started to give more credit to Robert
Kraft in keeping that deal together.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
You know, because not more than them too, right, But
I get it.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
He's just saying to smooth it out between them because
there's huge egos and that's the big part. Even when
you have Phil Jackson, like people could talk about, you
don't need to be always Chris uh and the x'es
and o's, But can you get all of these pieces
parts put together and and let them be able.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
To you know what I mean, you got to be
in football, but I think more so in basketball and base.
Speaker 6 (20:38):
I agree, you know, like Mike Toma gets a lot
of credit for that, you know in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yep, yeah, I mean we look now at what he
did with Antonio Brown, and it's like, my goodness, how.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Do you get Gary in Florida. You're on the couple
of Fox Sports Radio? What up? Gary?
Speaker 11 (20:58):
Chris and Rob?
Speaker 3 (20:59):

Speaker 7 (21:13):

Speaker 11 (21:13):
Belichick. Yo, I'm from Jamaica. I came to America seventy seven.
I started liking football when everybody knew. Y'all was singing,
here we go, Giants, here we got the football. Nineteen
ninety two and Belichick when the Giants played Buffalo and
at two foot Bowl with a backup quarterback, even though
(21:37):
he was the defensive coordinator.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
He ran. He won that game with his scheme.
Speaker 11 (21:44):
He came out with the two five two line man's
five defense, five linebackers, the two five defense to stop Buffalo,
Buffalo the high power. It was full fifty points like
it was nothing.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
There's no doubt that Bill Belichick was It is a
defensive guy. And his resume speaks for itself. That's that's
the point, Chris point play. His resume speaks for itself.

National champions.
Speaker 3 (30:52):
Don't use my clue, though, I don't want you to
help you. Hey, Hey can use what he wants. Bowser.

Speaker 5 (31:57):
Chris Dig's first two careers NFL interceptions. We're both off
of Carson Wentz went in a lifetime who has played
away the Eagles, Colts.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
And the Blank Orders Orders.
Speaker 5 (32:14):
Orders case he misses the second.
Speaker 13 (32:16):
Time orders orders orders, order orders, orders, orders, not orders.
I'm saying, like orders, but that's not orders, orders, orders orders.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
All right? Can you stop stop, Robbie? Is a question? Together?
Speaker 5 (32:35):
Carson Wentz played for the Eagles, Colts and blank orders.
Speaker 9 (32:40):
Jets.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That orders.
Speaker 9 (32:43):
I'm trying to think what his orders.
Speaker 5 (32:45):
So that's it because you can't you better, you can
do his tie down.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Don't do ties all right, we gotta go out radio.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
Let it.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
That was the commanders, was one of them. If I
said Washington, would you have gotten that would have said
that I was gonna win? I was Dustin.
Speaker 9 (33:07):
It's in the stars, Rob. Listen to that jam because.

Rob.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
We talked yesterday about Damian Lillard saying he would never
have gone to Golden State like Kevin Durant did.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
He's in a lot in that Yeah, that that interview
that was with Cameron and Mace. Here's something else.
Speaker 12 (34:02):
He said, what's the best three you played against? Steph, Kyrie,
Irving and Russell Westbrook. Kyrie really he the most skilled.
His game is the He got the most beautiful game
in NBA history.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
Look, Kyrie's game is beautiful.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Kyrie has the most streat game in the league today
with just his handle. I don't think he got the
best looking game ever, robbed, I think it was Jordan's.
You got dunks, his grace, you got incredible finishes in
traffic that that you don't get from. Kyrie is a
(34:41):
great finisher, But there's just you know, it's not the
same level as Jordan.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
I think doctor j his obviously, I mean, do I
even have to say that, you're his game was one
of the most beautiful, you could say. Second, and I
think magic, Rob think magic. Just with the past. Magic's
passing was light year. I mean the.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Do it go google search Magic Johnson's top passes highlight.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
It's ridiculous the passes he made.
Speaker 6 (35:12):
But but these guys, it's always Chris and and it's
always what happened yesterday, just for most people. I mean,
and uh, I'm with you, I mean and and we
all know how great Kyrie is and right, nothing, but yeah,
I just think.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
That that's because I think Kyrie and I've said it,
and I've been saying that. I didn't hear anybody say
it before me. I don't know if I was the
first or not, you know, in national media. But he
got the best handle in NBA history. But when you
talk about the.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Beauty of his game and his his game looks good
like it's jumper.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
The form he's he's smooth and all that finishes are great,
but you're essentially talking about his handle and his finishes
like you're not talking about passing. And he's a good
pass or very good passer, but you know, you're not
seeing Kyrie do a bunch of incredible passes that just
make you go what you know?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
And I get it magic. You're talking about beauty.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
It was all passing. Doctor j had moves. Jordan had
the moves. I think Steph, I honestly, I'm I'm all
struck by some of the stuff Steph does. His handle's
not as good as Kyrie's, but it's good, it's great.
I think it's one of the best ever. But his
(36:38):
the shots he makes to me are like breathtaking. A
lot of times I'm watching him the distance, he's off balance,
like throwing junk up that you wouldn't think is going in,
and it is.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
I don't mean desperation shots, but I mean his body
lean in all types of ways.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
So I yeah, I look again, taking enough from Kyrie,
whose game is beautiful, rob, I think you could even
I might go Isaiah Thomas over Kyrie because Isaiah had
to handle Now again, a different era wasn't what Kyrie got,
but had to handle.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
And the passing, I mean, he made some passes that
were ridiculous and he was a great finisher. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (37:25):
No, it's hard to argue with that as well. But
there are a couple of guys who you easily I
think could at least have that conversation over Kyrie. And
that's not a disrespectful Whenever you're ranking somebody, somebody who's
great is going to be left out. So it's not
as if you're saying he doesn't have some of those things.
That's not what you're saying. It's just that you could
(37:47):
name a couple of people who were better.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
That's all right. Him being in the discussion is a
compliment to him. No doubt.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
Hey, tomorrow being Connecticut with CC Sabbathia for the big

of the hour. That is always fun. It's the Trayvon
Diggs addition again. Trayvon Diggs, of course, unfortunately out for
(01:06):
the rest of the season. The great Dallas Cowboys cornerback
the New York Giants San Francisco forty nine ers locked
at three points apiece early in the second quarterbout midway
through about eight and a half minutes left. But the
Giants are playing with the Niners and so that that
(01:27):
is a good sign for them.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Brock Purty looking yeah, mediocre.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Missing some throws, could have had a couple of interceptions
his receivers healthy mount on those.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
But he's got to be better.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
But Christian McCaffrey is having a terrific game so far.
So we'll see three three Niners, Giants. Rob interesting story in.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
The zone in the red zone. Yeah, Marlon Humphrey.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Was talking about Bill Belichick recently and Rob g let's
hear what that sounds.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Is Belichick elite or is Tom Brady elite? That's the
million dollar question. It's looking more like Brady, but it
is what it is. I don't know if Belichick was
ever Dagham dirty. Wow, you gotta check that, you check
they're washed, that had been dirty.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
My gosh, Belichick was never whoa whoa whoa.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Okay, yeah, I'm saying Tom Brady that they were together,
though you can't say it was one of the.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
But time one moment without him.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
Like if this year still goes down, it's like, is
that three that's been losing seasons, this is the year.
It's the same for bam a it's all pendings, but
it's looking like some.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
People are getting washed. Rob what are your thoughts on that? Chris?
Rob g what what uh? Podcast was that?
Speaker 5 (02:57):
That was his own one PODCA was don't listen to
this at any time. It's called Theline Podcast.
Speaker 6 (03:02):
Yeah, okay, it's a comedy podcast. Is that what this is? A?
I mean, Chris, it's embarrassing some of these guys really like, like, can.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
You do that? Does not like these athletes?
Speaker 6 (03:17):
I don't because Chris, you could have an opinion if
you want to, but to totally discount Bill Belichick and
the top five defenses that he put together when they
beat the Rams in the Super Bowl, Chris, the last
one that Brady and Belichick. Brady had no touchdowns. The
Rams came in averaging thirty five points a game and
they scored three points on an eighty nine yard field goal. Like, like,
(03:40):
you gotta give the guy some credit.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (03:42):
I'm not saying if you want to say who had
a better impact on the Patriots, Tom Brady or Bill Belichick,
But to say to discount them totally like he had
nothing to do with it, it's mind boggling. When Tom
Brady had his great comeback against Atlanta, guess what defense
and shut out the Falcons Chriss in the second half.
(04:03):
It was Bill Belichick's defense. That's all I'm saying. Like,
like you can have an opinion and say you would
pick Brady over Belichick, That's not what I'm arguing. But
to act as if he has nothing to do with it,
then then he goes somebody trying to say, well, Brady
won without him. Belichick also was a defensive coordinator when
the Giants won two Super.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Bowls in New York. But my point is he won.
He did win, but we don't we don't. We don't
put reing.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
No, but I'm talking about he was a part of
that defense with Lawrence Taylor and all those people who
were involved. That's all I'm saying. No, it's a part
of his resume. It's a part of his way.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
But a lot of guys that aren't good head coach
Josh McDaniels, how's he is a head coach.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Now, I'm not saying Belichick.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I'm just saying to winning it as a coordinator or not, I'm.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
Saying that's a card of his resume that you cannot discount.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
He makes it like he didn't do anything as my Yeah,
I'm not defending Humphrey.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
All I'm saying is I would I disagree with throwing
in Belichick's ring with san fran or with.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
The Giants two wings, Yeah, both of them.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah, because I don't throw when I talk about Josh
McDaniels as a head coach, I don't throw in all
the rings he won in New England as offensive coordinator.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
And so I'm not Now let me get to this.
I disagree obviously with Marlon Humphrey. Here's the deal. And
I've been critical of.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Belichick as far as what he's done without Brady, which
is not much. Just keeping it real, He's coached for
ten seasons without Tom Brady's made the playoffs twice.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
So, but here's the deal. You cannot take away from
Bill Belichick what he has accomplished.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
First of all, I'll start here Rob even though I believe,
like if you have to, if you're forced to pick
one who was more responsible for the dynasty, both of
them deserved their flowers and accolades. I would say Brady because,
like I said, what Belichick's done without Brady not much.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Two playoffs ten years and Brady going to Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
And winning it without Belichick with a seven and nine
team the year before. But that does not mean you
have to take away and act like Belichick is chop Liver.
Even if he didn't do anything in Cleveland before he
got Brady.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
What he did with Brady, he deserves Robbie.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
Look.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
As much as I good as I think Tom Brady is,
he would not be who he is without Belichick. Belichick
gave him the chance stuck with them when Drew Bledsoe,
who was a pro bowler four times, I believe, came
back and stuck with Brady, And like you said, at
that point in his career, Brady was a game manager
(06:59):
and Check's defenses.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Were huge, huge, the driving part of their success.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Later on, you know a few years later Brady became
this great passer and prolific passer. But the first few
Super Bowls there was a largely the defense. And the
fact is this, right, you can look at a lot
of the great coaches, Rob and when they didn't have
the great players, the Hall of Fame players, they didn't win.
(07:28):
That We don't take away from Rob Greg Popovich. He
just had four horrific seasons in San Francisco and San
Antonio without Tim Duncan.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
We're not gonna take away what he did with Duncan.
Go look at Don Shulers the end of his career,
and Don Shuler was a great coach with Baltimore first
and then the Dolphins. Yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I think Tom Landry right and struggled late in his career.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I mean he got fired, you know, Jerry Jones. So
you can't.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
The point is you just can't take away and Bill
Belichick obviously a defensive, terrific defensive coach. But my point, Rob,
is just that even if you want to be critical
of him, you want to say Brady was more responsible,
the fact is Belichick has won six Super Bowls, and
(08:23):
no matter how you slice it, like we said, you
can look at all the great coaches, Rob, and once
they lost a lot of their great players, most of
them are many of them, their success you know, was gone.
I mean Tom Landry, the great Tom Lardry right, four
of his last five years, Rob, he didn't make the
playoffs with the Cowboys and he was fired, right and
(08:47):
so but nobody takes that away from you don't say
oh without star backing.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Tony dor said he didn't do anything right. I just
I just think for that just doesn't make any sense
to me. Like I said, you could pick who you
think it had the more most impact if you want.
I'm not gonna argue that it's everybody's opinion, okay, but
but to discounter guy when Chris during his Super bowls,
can I give you the defenses where they were ranked
(09:13):
in the NFL sixth, first, second, eighth, first, and seventh.
So we're in the top ten to top eight in
all of the Super Bowl winning years. Twice they were
first overall in one second. That's pretty doing impressive.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
No no doubt. And that's again that's his strength. That's
his side of the ball. We talk about Brandon Stately,
I'm glad you brought it up. Supposed to be a
good defensive coach going the opposite.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Way, that's what that's what you look for.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Like Belichick didn't do great with the offense and all that,
but you can't tell me that he didn't have his
hands on that defense. And that's what Brandon Staley should be.
He has a stud quarterback work on the defense Chris
to get stops at the end of the games and
close out wins.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Right, and look, Rob Belichick, bottom line is a maid
man again. You can as you said, I think you
know Brady was the driving force, you know more so.
But I don't take anything from Belichick. I think he's
done winning. I don't have them making the playoffs this year.
(10:20):
I don't necessarily think he'll ever make the playoffs again.
I mean, we'll see if they get some great quarterback
to replace Mac Jones or whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
But I think their dynasty is done.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
It won't be the first time, all right, that a
great player left and a team was done winning, all right,
But that doesn't mean you can't take away from what
the man did when he had Tom Brady. Heck, Rob,
like a lot of coaches may not have discovered Brady.
I mean real talk, right, it could have easily happened.
(10:53):
He wasn't drafted high or anything. If you ever see that,
Dad bod pick, you would be looking like, is this guy?
Speaker 3 (11:00):
You know what I mean? Like, Yeah, it didn't look
that great, Chris.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Now he looks way better now, you know what, thirty
years later or whatever it did twenty five years later.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Yeah, it's so yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
I mean, I don't and I don't think Humphrey. I
mean you heard him at the end. I can't remember
exactly what he was saying. He's kind of playing around,
but you know, you throw stuff out like that and
it you know it. We say it all the time, Rob.
It is important the athletes that want to get in
this business.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
You gotta say something right, right.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You can't just protect your boys, protect the coaches you
played for, not be critical, not be honest really, but
then you also you got to be able to back
up what you say.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
And Chris, you have to protect your credibility. The credibility
because if you just go off the deep end and
just start throwing stuff out, people will not listen to you.
Rugby like this too a joke. This dude's not serious
about this.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
He said that.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
You know, that's not where you want to be saying stuff.
I agree with that. But if he made the case
and broke down why Brady was better, then you have
something that.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
People can listen.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
Go.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
You know what Humphy made me? Really think about it?
You know what I mean? Like, that's what you're looking for, right, yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:20):
I mean, you don't win six super Bowls doing nothing.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Just to me happened and.
Speaker 6 (12:27):
I'm not a big Belichick guy. I'm not gonna sity
here and act like he's not a good coach.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
I mean, rob, let's keep it real.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
I mean, I believe Tom Brady's the goat.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
He's the goat because he won so much.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
He's not the goat because he's necessarily the best we've
ever seen throw the football. But he accomplished so much,
and obviously he was great, you know, in many of
those Super Bowls, many of those Super Bowl runs, and
he's got fantastic individual stats too, but there's a certain
level of accomplishment that you just can't ignore. And Bill
(13:05):
Belichick's hit that level and then some. He's won as
many super Bowls as any franchise.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Right, and just by himself.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
But it's a joke, right that he would just kind of,
you know, trying to be cute or whatever, which is fine,
but you gotta be careful, do not hurt your credibility
so that people won't take what you say. If we
just came on here every day, Chris and just said
some outland his stuff off the top of my head,
people would not be listening to the show. Let's just
I don't care what any that they'd be like this
(13:34):
is a joke. These guys aren't serious.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
One thing, right, and you've been on the debate shows
and all that.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I'm on one. Now, first things first, The.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Thing is you have your point, have your opinion, but
you got to be able to back it up. Rob,
You know these debates will go ten minutes, fifteen minutes,
like you have to have plenty of information to back
up the point that you're making. And so if you
want to try to bring information that Bill Belichick was
(14:04):
never a good coach, then half at it. But you
gotta you know, you're gonna find much like I said,
I can find stuff to say Brady was the driving
force in my view, but I'm not gonna say Belichick
wasn't a good coach.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
And you know got lucky and so on and so forth.
All right, it's the odd couple Chris and Rob.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
You'll turn away in eight seven seven ninety nine on
Fox eight seven seven nine nine six sixty three sixty nine,
A simple question, do you agree with Marlon Humphy Humphrey.

Is it only one of the biggest shows of all time?
Rom I got.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Survivor That was embarrassing.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
Guys what I watched, you know, Nightcurt from nineteen twenty seven.
But Survivor, which was like a cult phenomenon for seven years.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I remember what years was surviving I remember the first year.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
I remember the first one because somebody I know from
Detroit was in that.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
The eliminated Quickerments. The brother I don't know was he.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
I didn't watch much Survivor, I remember it. Of course
I might have watched.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
You know what.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
I was too busy being the survivor in this war. Jeez,
we told you, I'm gonna keep it real. Anything passed
the late eighties, I probably ain't gonna pick you no what, I'm.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Just keeping it. I watched.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I watched stuff like you know, man, my wife and
I binge watch some stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:05):
But you know, when you're younger.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
I even notice it with like hip hop, so I
could hear a rap song from nineteen eighty one and
remember the lyrics, But I ain't memorizing stuff like that today.
Just when you're younger, stuff you know, has more of
an impact.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
On I agree, Chris, and I said this to you
guys before. I think the last scripted TV show that
I watched on a regular basis with Seinfel and that
went off in the nineties, Am I right?
Speaker 3 (17:34):
I think that was.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Probably like late late nineties nineties. I think that was
the last one I watched, like on network.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Yeah, you know what you watch every Thursday night. That
was it? All right, we got something. We just keeping
it real, Alex. But that was good, very nice. All right?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Yeah, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox you're turned
away in on Belichick your thoughts?
Speaker 6 (17:57):
All right, let's start with Obi in Los Angeles. You're
on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 7 (18:03):
What up, Alby, mister and mister Bard? What great?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Thank you? Thank you.
Speaker 7 (18:11):
I want to say you guys are great because and
I'll quantify it by saying that you always challenge your
callers to make sure that they say what they say
and they mean it and they back up whatever they say.
So I want to say that first, the stuff about
UH coach Belichick is ridiculous. Of course, he's he's one
(18:31):
of the best bear of his I mean, you can
maybe talk about the fact that he was in a
division that was weak for a period of time. Now
you still gonna win super Bowls?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Yeah, I'm gonna say I wouldn't.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
Yeah, you know you still right, once you get into
the super Bowl, right.
Speaker 7 (18:48):
Exactly, so you gotta win. So and he's won that,
and he's been there nine times, one six Come on, I.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Mean right, it just sounds crazy, no problem.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I think the best argument against him is what he's
done out Brady, which again not much, but still he
did so much with Brady.
Speaker 6 (19:04):
That you can't I mean, you got especially when you
look at the defenses during that time too. There's no doubt.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Early on Brady was the game. Craig in Houston, you're
on the couple of Fox Sports Rader.
Speaker 10 (19:17):
What up, Craig, Hey, guys, how you doing this evening?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Doing great? What's up?
Speaker 7 (19:21):
Good?
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Hey?
Speaker 11 (19:22):
Rob Our just gon hit us?
Speaker 10 (19:23):
Do what you gonna say. You're not gonna pooh pool on.
Speaker 11 (19:25):
Belichick ain't gonna.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Defend it now, you know, right, don't don't pooh poo.
You know I'm not I'm the poo poo king.
Speaker 7 (19:34):
I was.
Speaker 10 (19:36):
I think it takes both man, you know, and I'm
not a Patriot fan and in any way, but uh uh,
players win, but you gotta give coaches. We've seen talented
teams without the leadership at the coaching. I mean, hey,
look at Buffalo. You know they're missing Day Bowl. You know, uh,
they're gonna have issues without him. But I'll tell you what,
(19:58):
as the stories come out about the relationship between Brady
and Belichick, I started to give more credit to Robert
Kraft in keeping that deal together.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
You know, because not more than them too, right, But
I get it.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
He's just saying to smooth it out between them because
there's huge egos and that's the big part. Even when
you have Phil Jackson, like people could talk about, you
don't need to be always Chris uh and the x'es
and o's, But can you get all of these pieces
parts put together and and let them be able.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
To you know what I mean, you got to be
in football, but I think more so in basketball and base.
Speaker 6 (20:38):
I agree, you know, like Mike Toma gets a lot
of credit for that, you know in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yep, yeah, I mean we look now at what he
did with Antonio Brown, and it's like, my goodness, how.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Do you get Gary in Florida. You're on the couple
of Fox Sports Radio? What up? Gary?
Speaker 11 (20:58):
Chris and Rob?
Speaker 3 (20:59):

Belichick. Yo, I'm from Jamaica. I came to America seventy seven.
I started liking football when everybody knew. Y'all was singing,
here we go, Giants, here we got the football. Nineteen
ninety two and Belichick when the Giants played Buffalo and
at two foot Bowl with a backup quarterback, even though
(21:37):
he was the defensive coordinator.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
He ran. He won that game with his scheme.
Speaker 11 (21:44):
He came out with the two five two line man's
five defense, five linebackers, the two five defense to stop Buffalo,
Buffalo the high power. It was full fifty points like
it was nothing.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
There's no doubt that Bill Belichick was It is a
defensive guy. And his resume speaks for itself. That's that's
the point, Chris point play. His resume speaks for itself.

Speaker 9 (32:40):

Speaker 3 (32:40):
That orders.
Speaker 9 (32:43):
I'm trying to think what his orders.
Speaker 5 (32:45):
So that's it because you can't you better, you can
do his tie down.
Speaker 3 (32:52):

Rob.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
We talked yesterday about Damian Lillard saying he would never
have gone to Golden State like Kevin Durant did.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
He's in a lot in that Yeah, that that interview
that was with Cameron and Mace. Here's something else.
Speaker 12 (34:02):
He said, what's the best three you played against? Steph, Kyrie,
Irving and Russell Westbrook. Kyrie really he the most skilled.
His game is the He got the most beautiful game
in NBA history.
Speaker 3 (34:17):
Look, Kyrie's game is beautiful.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Kyrie has the most streat game in the league today
with just his handle. I don't think he got the
best looking game ever, robbed, I think it was Jordan's.
You got dunks, his grace, you got incredible finishes in
traffic that that you don't get from. Kyrie is a
(34:41):
great finisher, But there's just you know, it's not the
same level as Jordan.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
I think doctor j his obviously, I mean, do I
even have to say that, you're his game was one
of the most beautiful, you could say. Second, and I
think magic, Rob think magic. Just with the past. Magic's
passing was light year. I mean the.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Do it go google search Magic Johnson's top passes highlight.
Speaker 3 (35:10):
It's ridiculous the passes he made.
Speaker 6 (35:12):
But but these guys, it's always Chris and and it's
always what happened yesterday, just for most people. I mean,
and uh, I'm with you, I mean and and we
all know how great Kyrie is and right, nothing, but yeah,
I just think.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
That that's because I think Kyrie and I've said it,
and I've been saying that. I didn't hear anybody say
it before me. I don't know if I was the
first or not, you know, in national media. But he
got the best handle in NBA history. But when you
talk about the.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Beauty of his game and his his game looks good
like it's jumper.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
The form he's he's smooth and all that finishes are great,
but you're essentially talking about his handle and his finishes
like you're not talking about passing. And he's a good
pass or very good passer, but you know, you're not
seeing Kyrie do a bunch of incredible passes that just
make you go what you know?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
And I get it magic. You're talking about beauty.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
It was all passing. Doctor j had moves. Jordan had
the moves. I think Steph, I honestly, I'm I'm all
struck by some of the stuff Steph does. His handle's
not as good as Kyrie's, but it's good, it's great.
I think it's one of the best ever. But his
(36:38):
the shots he makes to me are like breathtaking. A
lot of times I'm watching him the distance, he's off balance,
like throwing junk up that you wouldn't think is going in,
and it is.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
I don't mean desperation shots, but I mean his body
lean in all types of ways.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
So I yeah, I look again, taking enough from Kyrie,
whose game is beautiful, rob, I think you could even
I might go Isaiah Thomas over Kyrie because Isaiah had
to handle Now again, a different era wasn't what Kyrie got,
but had to handle.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
And the passing, I mean, he made some passes that
were ridiculous and he was a great finisher. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (37:25):
No, it's hard to argue with that as well. But
there are a couple of guys who you easily I
think could at least have that conversation over Kyrie. And
that's not a disrespectful Whenever you're ranking somebody, somebody who's
great is going to be left out. So it's not
as if you're saying he doesn't have some of those things.
That's not what you're saying. It's just that you could
(37:47):
name a couple of people who were better.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
That's all right. Him being in the discussion is a
compliment to him. No doubt.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
