Hour 3 – Drake Maye Had No Answers, Recollections from the Road Trip

00:00:00
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.

00:00:04
Speaker 2: Final Hour in this Monday best and Worst of the weekend, we will give you hours coming up. Was there a memorable play when we look back on this Super Bowl ten years, fifteen years down the road, will there be a singular play that we remember? By the way, the Olympics have started in Milan, Northern Italy experienced the world's biggest show primetime on NBC and pecick. In fact, Mike Tirico is in the air in a private jet going from San Francisco to Italy where he will be hosting part of the Winter Olympics. There watching Lindsay Vaughn and breaking her leg, and I wondered if she should have been competing anyway, if you consider trying to go down those mountains at those speeds. Anyway, she's forty one years of age, and then you tear your ACL? Are you favoring it? Can that ACL hold up at all? It's been a great story, but all of a sudden, you know, tripped up and then broke her leg and ends a great story at the potential. Well, the comeback was she did make the team and got to Italy, but that was one of those where you when she fell, you knew it was serious, all right. Eight seven to seven three DP show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle a DP show more phone calls coming up. Drake Meg after the loss last night, spoke to the media and talked about what this meant.

00:01:35
Speaker 3: You know, it definitely hurts.

00:01:36
Speaker 4: It's been a long ride. Uh they played better enough tonight. Plays with that game and you know, speaking for the whole team, and uh, you know myself, just you know where a journey has been for us. I love this team. I love those guys a locker room and believe it all on the field. And I know a lot of guys do that tonight and just came up short. Didn't play our best and that's what happens.

00:01:58
Speaker 2: No inside knowledge on this, but I wouldn't be surprised if you hear that he's having some minor shoulder surgery.

00:02:05
Speaker 5: He got shot up before the game.

00:02:07
Speaker 2: We found out after the game, but and I don't know how that impacted him.

00:02:12
Speaker 5: He said he wasn't feeling anything.

00:02:14
Speaker 2: If you've ever been shot up with any kind of painkiller, you know, even if it's cortisone, but they're shot up with you know, something that's a lot heavier there, and he said, I don't feel anything.

00:02:26
Speaker 5: Now. I don't know if it affected him or not.

00:02:29
Speaker 2: The reason why I was surprised that if you had your shoulders shot up, you're kind of putting him in a position where he's just sitting duck back there. I have to have everything quick. I don't want anybody to get a free run at him, and they'll go after that shoulder. So once again I didn't understand the offensive philosophy. I'm going to give Seattle a ton of credit with how they went after Drake May. I was just surprised that Josh McDaniel's the most experienced offensive coordinator Super Bowl history, wasn't changing things up or I didn't from my vantage point, see that there was anything else going on run the football. It felt like they got away from the run pretty early, and now all of a sudden, Seattle was coming and Seattle realized, maybe New England's not changing back. But I never would have had him back there because they didn't have a deep threat. I don't have to have him back and you know, biding time to be able to throw something deep, it's got to be short I got to keep it short, screen passes, run the football, something that takes away from Seattle's pressure because Seattle was just going, all right, who wants to run in and tackling? Okay, but I thought it was an incredible defensive performance. And I know we get caught up in was it a good game? Was it exciting? It's like when a pitcher throws, you know, a shutout, and you go, was that exciting? Well, it depends on how you look at it. I thought it was impressive. Maybe not exciting, but impressive what they were doing, how they were doing it, even New England's defense. I mean that was high end defense on both sides. And New England keeping the Patriots in this game because they're only giving up field goals. It felt like Seattle should have been up thirty five to nothing, but it's twelve to nothing, and you're thinking it's just close enough. If something falls your way now all of a sudden, you might get a little momentum U Seaton, what's the poll question for the final hour of the program.

00:04:37
Speaker 6: Yeah, we got three of them up there right now. Which unit deserves the most credit for Seattle's win? Pass, rush, secondary, run game or special teams, the pass rush has seventy eight per seven. Then, VO, you want to guess what's in second place between secondary, run game and special teams?

00:04:50
Speaker 5: Special teams.

00:04:51
Speaker 6: Special teams and secondary are actually kind of tied. Special teams. You guys are real football players for sure. Here's one from Paul p.

00:05:00
Speaker 5: Apps.

00:05:00
Speaker 6: Which fan base feels worse today? Patriots, Bills, Broncos, Vikings. The Vikings currently leading that poll with thirty four percent of the vote. I don't think Patriots fans should feel bad today at all. And then what actually decided last night's game? The Seahawks pass rush, the Patriots offensive line, special teams or coaching that pass rush sixty seven percent.

00:05:24
Speaker 2: You can't have a pass rush without a bad offensive line?

00:05:27
Speaker 5: Can you certainly helped? Yeah, there's no doubt about that.

00:05:32
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, PAULI they hit Drake May eleven times. Seven different players on their defense hit Drake.

00:05:38
Speaker 2: May, Kenneth Walker Junior the third rush for one thirty five, most by any player since Trel Davis had won fifty seven in the Broncos Super Bowl.

00:05:48
Speaker 5: You know, that's where you go back to.

00:05:50
Speaker 2: That was about defense and running the football. There are numerous occasions now there have been times when you go, oh, they won that because they were throwing the ball, being able to run the football and play good defense. And then you throw in special teams. I mean, go back with the Patriots, I mean they had Adam Vinitieri to go along with a very good defense. When Brady first won, they didn't win because of Tom. They went because that defense and you had Adam Vinitieri having that. If you can get any kind of representation in those categories and it's at a higher end than the team you're playing, you're going to win. And then no turnovers. The fact they went the entire postseason with no turnovers never happened before. All Right, Todd, Best and worst of the weekend?

00:06:38
Speaker 8: We keeping at the Super Bowl. Can I go off the board? How do we want to do?

00:06:41
Speaker 5: Whatever you want to do?

00:06:42
Speaker 8: My best of the weekend.

00:06:43
Speaker 9: The NYU women's basketball team broke a Division III record on Sunday.

00:06:47
Speaker 8: They took down Carnegie.

00:06:48
Speaker 9: Mellon Sunday to make it eighty two straight wins go Violence. So that was my best of the weekend. Worst of the weekend was mentioned earlier. Also, sadly, Seth Trimble hits a game winning three up in North Carolina beats Duke seventy one sixty eight, biggest come back over the Blue Devils in the past twenty five years.

00:07:02
Speaker 8: Sounds like a best bud.

00:07:03
Speaker 9: Duke coach John Shire says some of his coaching staff were punched in the face during the court storming in Chapel.

00:07:09
Speaker 5: Hill, Seaton. Best and worst of the weekend.

00:07:11
Speaker 6: My best of the weekend was actually the flyover before the game.

00:07:15
Speaker 5: God, that was the one.

00:07:17
Speaker 6: The camera work was absolutely spectacular on it, and for some reason this year it really dawned on me just how many things had to time out exactly right in the lead up to that flyover where those planes flew over just as the anthem is like sort of crescendoing. Was absolutely spectacular, and the camera work on that was really really great. My worst of the weekend was actually the commercials. And I'm not necessarily a commercials guy. I don't mind them either way, but I do expect them. It is something that I sort of look forward to. I really didn't feel like this year got it at all.

00:07:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, it didn't feel like there was that oh my god, that like you'd be talking about that commercial today because there wasn't one, even the Goodwill Duncan. You got to have Matt Damon in the role because he's guilt goodwill hunting, and then you throw in Tom Brady and then Ben a Flack Jennifer Aniston cameo and it was like, oh, okay, yeah, a little star power here, all right?

00:08:13
Speaker 6: It was okay, And it feels like in years past they would have just actually gotten all of those people to be in the commercial rather than the sort of AI generated version of them.

00:08:22
Speaker 10: Yeah.

00:08:23
Speaker 2: I don't know if there was a commercial where I went okay, Like the Kevin from the Office, I thought that that was a clever one. And then there were a lot of Kevin Brian Bumgardner. There was a look Kevin lookalike contest where he had a bunch of guys who looked like him with his hair, and then he's the payoff is the chili episode, maybe the most famous episode in the history of the Office, where he's carrying in the chili with a you know, reasonable facsimile of himself. I thought that that was kind of clever, But there wasn't anything where I went okay, that's clever. In fact, it was almost to the opposite where I kept going. When are these things gonna get good? Could they waiting for the fourth quarter before they're going to bring out the heavy eight heavyweights?

00:09:09
Speaker 5: Marvin Best and worst of the weekend.

00:09:11
Speaker 8: My best of the weekend.

00:09:12
Speaker 11: My favorite player in the NBA Stefan Castle forty points, twelve rebounds, twelve assists. Pretty good. Worse of the weekend My Yukon Huskies. They lost to Saint John's over the weekend.

00:09:23
Speaker 8: No buena. Oh, still getting further than Arizona though.

00:09:28
Speaker 12: You have a pie of the face beat. Don't you have Uncle Phil haircuts of the face to the head rather?

00:09:34
Speaker 5: Oh you do?

00:09:35
Speaker 8: Yeah? So a guy called on that's right, that's right, yep.

00:09:38
Speaker 5: Okay, don't believe in it. Can you grow hair?

00:09:41
Speaker 8: Yeah, Mike Todd, I don't know what that's supster me, but that sounds like a.

00:09:45
Speaker 5: No no on the sides.

00:09:47
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, I can go hair on the top too. It's just I was just doing tricks with the hairline and the corners.

00:09:56
Speaker 5: Like Pauline.

00:09:56
Speaker 11: Yeah, yes, very much, so, yes, okay, it's but instead we're just gonna cut the top so it can look like Fritzy.

00:10:03
Speaker 8: That's a great look.

00:10:04
Speaker 6: As we all know, it'd be awesome if you did that, like lined up spray on sort of hair like Lebron like some coaches got too.

00:10:11
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's kind of awesome.

00:10:13
Speaker 6: Yeah, put the little guide on your forehead and here you go.

00:10:19
Speaker 8: New Year knew me.

00:10:20
Speaker 5: When does Lebron get that done?

00:10:23
Speaker 13: Like?

00:10:24
Speaker 5: Is it pregame?

00:10:24
Speaker 14: Where?

00:10:25
Speaker 5: Get what done?

00:10:26
Speaker 14: Dan?

00:10:27
Speaker 5: His hairne?

00:10:28
Speaker 11: I mean, look, he had looked like some surgery because if you remember the end of the first Cleveland run, his head like his headman was at the top of his head. It wasn't weird like the forehead. It was at the top to hide the hairline that was receiding at twenty five.

00:10:43
Speaker 7: That's called the lester Holt the Lester hole. Yeah, high for Wow. I saw that online.

00:10:50
Speaker 2: Wow, that Lebron had a Lester a whole bit of a Lesterholt direction.

00:10:54
Speaker 5: Like Aet Peyton Manning Peyton.

00:10:58
Speaker 8: He should have just come on home like me.

00:11:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean really, does it make you a younger looking or better looking?

00:11:06
Speaker 8: No, he's Lebron, right.

00:11:09
Speaker 5: I like that.

00:11:10
Speaker 2: Somebody posted a video of Lebron that he was running the floor before the game. Nobody else was out there, but he's running and dunking and then running at the other end and dunking. And then somebody said, Laker cheerleaders just came out on the floor. He's got his shirt off and he's running up and down the floor dunking. I went, all right, you know, Paulie Bester.

00:11:33
Speaker 5: Worst of the weekend.

00:11:34
Speaker 7: Worst of the weekend the interception by Drake May eight forty nine left in the fourth quarter, second and three. They could have made it a game there, and then it went away quickly. Best of the weekend Cooper Cup, reminding everybody nationally that he's still a good player in the league. Six important catches. I'm curious he needs some help for Hall of Fame consideration. He had three really good years and that one monster year. He needed help, and last night helped it. I think he's got work to do though.

00:12:02
Speaker 2: He's thirty two and he's not the go to guy anymore. He's not getting in the Hall of Fame. No, Nope, not getting into the Hall of Fame. I got Super Bowl odds. Super Bowl odds for next year. It's the Rams and Seahawks are tied, then it's the Bills, Eagles Patriots Ravens.

00:12:20
Speaker 5: Same odds thirteen to one.

00:12:22
Speaker 2: Packers fourteen to one, along with the Rams, Chiefs and Chargers at fifteen to one. And I was kind of surprised with the NFL MVP odds this according to DraftKings for next year. Josh Allen, No surprise there, But then it's Lamar Jackson second on that list with the new head coach. Then you got Mahomes and Herbert Burrow and Drake may all lumped together there some of the other ones down the list. You got Dak Prescott, Matthew Stafford. Then Jordan Love, Caleb Williams, rock Perty, Jayden Daniels, and Trevor Lawrence.

00:12:59
Speaker 9: Yes, don teams from Colorado on that list that there was one win away from going to the super Bowl after all those.

00:13:05
Speaker 8: Teams you mentioned.

00:13:05
Speaker 2: Now, let me see the Super Bowl odds. Seahawks, Rams, Bills, Eagles, Patriots, Ravens, Packers, Lions, Chargers, Chiefs.

00:13:13
Speaker 5: Sorry, Todd, Wow, did that surprised you a little bit?

00:13:16
Speaker 9: Forget about my fandom that Denver's not any of those like ten twelve teams you just read, and Brock was a you know what to be.

00:13:22
Speaker 5: Should they be ahead of Seahawks, Rams.

00:13:25
Speaker 9: Well, you mentioned Packers and Lions caught my eye as I think Denver's every bit of chances those two teams to get to the super Bowl.

00:13:30
Speaker 2: Okay, and your quarterback's not on the list for MVP ons either.

00:13:35
Speaker 8: Yeah, some healing to do.

00:13:36
Speaker 2: Some emotional You have some healing to do as well. Sam and Wyoming, Good morning, Sam. What's on your mind today?

00:13:46
Speaker 15: Hey Dank, thanks for taking my call. Yeah, I was just wondering falling Buddha's lead. What was more entertaining the first half of the Super Bowl? Or the bands are about Ross Tucker being in London?

00:14:01
Speaker 8: Oh, Todd, I still think there's a chance he was in London. He was too embarrassed to admitted on there. But that's fine.

00:14:07
Speaker 9: I won't want to admit. Yeah, they sent me to England to do this in some studio and pretend we were at the game. I understand where he's coming from.

00:14:13
Speaker 2: Well, you did your research, you did check with him. You thought he might have been in England calling the game.

00:14:19
Speaker 9: I asked him off the air, and of course he had a weight to lead with that to make me look like a fool, which he did very successfully.

00:14:24
Speaker 2: Drake May finished the playoffs. He was sacked twenty one times. That's the most by a quarterback in a single postseason in NFL history.

00:14:35
Speaker 9: Statu the Day, Statu to Day, stat of the Day, stat of the Day, Status to day, Statu to day Status to Day.

00:14:44
Speaker 2: Statue brought to you by Panini America. He also had eight turnovers, most by a player since Carson Palmer had eight during the twenty fifteen playoffs. I mean, the fact that they got to the Super Bowl, given the fact that he was pressured, had turnovers, had fumbles, had interceptions. I mean, it says a lot about the rest of that team and certainly that defense. And you know it was there again on Super Bowl Sunday. Turnovers and sacks. Yeah, Pauline, people were in love.

00:15:16
Speaker 7: With Drake May weeks ago, all this season. How much of a cooling effect do you think this game will have, or this playoffs will have on his perception in the future.

00:15:26
Speaker 2: Well, I think it should, because yes, everybody was all in and I said, well, you could have given him the MVP. I mean he finished second by one vote, so a lot of people thought that he could have been MVP. I think he did a lot with a little and I think that Matthew Stafford did a whole lot with a whole lot and that's the biggest difference there. But if I'm the Rams, I'm a Rams fan today, I got to go, God, we could have won this. If we got there, we would have won this. I don't know what other team that can really say if we had gotten there and we would have won this. And also, are the Vikings going to bring back Kirk Cousins because he got released and all indications are Kirk wants to play in Minnesota.

00:16:15
Speaker 5: That may be a return visit.

00:16:20
Speaker 2: Mac Jones. According to the Niners, they're not trading him now. That doesn't mean he won't be traded, but mac Jones and Malik Willis feel like they would be high on the priority list because you really only have one first round quarterback. It feels like this year in the draft. All right, we'll take a break. More phone calls coming up. We're back after this.

Speaker 2: Paulie says, there's all ready some issues there in Milan. What's the issue.

00:17:58
Speaker 7: Yeah, they've started giving out Winter Olympic medals and they're having issues. One of the gold medalists jumped on the podium and the class broke and the metal fell to the ground. But then two other athletes. This new medal is like a two piece put together instead of like the one piece that we grew up on with like Carl Lewis and guys like that. And the second piece fell off one of the Olympic medalists and she posted it, so they're trying to recover the medals.

00:18:27
Speaker 2: Can't blame this on fanatics, though, I cannot at this juncture. Yeah, we were looking at those jerseys, didn't we do that? Was that like NBA jerseys or no Baseball jerseys?

00:18:38
Speaker 5: I'm like, what is this?

00:18:41
Speaker 2: And they just seem like those knockoff, cheap jerseys and turned out that they were knockoff but not cheap jerseys. And then the Super Bowl ones. I saw the Patriots and I went, that doesn't even that doesn't feel The one I had with the Seahawks was better, but I don't if I'm paying that kind of money, Like I don't want something that's, hey, we're gonna iron on something yeah uh seat.

00:19:07
Speaker 6: And it isn't even like yeah, like just like the feel of them was off. Yeah, it was like, well, why are the logos in different places?

00:19:14
Speaker 5: That is true?

00:19:14
Speaker 6: The super Bowl logo, right, there's a Super Bowl logo on this one over here and on that one. It's over there, like, shouldn't they be uniform? That's it's a uniform.

00:19:22
Speaker 2: Fritzie had some flight not issues, but certainly some flight stories. Coming back from San Francisco. You of course never fly direct, so there was a layover in Philadelphia.

00:19:33
Speaker 8: It was when San Francisco Philly, Philly to Hartford.

00:19:35
Speaker 9: But there was a couple of most where I thought there was some flirtation going on with a couple of flight attendants. And granted, it doesn't take much for me to start creating scenarios. Someone could say hi, to meet in an elevator, and I think, oh my god, I'm gonna this is gonna be the moment anyway, And I'm a happily married man not being said. I'm getting out of the way of one of the flight attendants who'sheeling the cart and giving out drinks, and I'm actually waiting for the restrooms. So I'm getting out of her way and she kind of comes up next to me and says, some people call this flight dancing, which was just an a that little moment we had there, And I said, which I don't know, is that cheating? So I gotta tell my wife my line back to her was best thing that happened to me all day, and she smiled and continued wheeling the cards. I don't know if that was appropriate response, but I just got a little flustered that she would say.

00:20:12
Speaker 4: That to me.

00:20:13
Speaker 8: This is just some people call this flight dancing.

00:20:15
Speaker 5: But that was the only flirtation.

00:20:16
Speaker 9: Oh that was San Francisco to Philly, And then two things happened from Philly to Hartford.

00:20:19
Speaker 13: Two.

00:20:20
Speaker 9: I'm sitting in coach like row fourteen bed a curtain starts to row eight, six rows behind first class, and I'm meeting my little Smashburg or whatever I'm eeting.

00:20:27
Speaker 8: And she comes in.

00:20:28
Speaker 9: She comes over to me, and one of the flights, they asked me if I would like a drink, so I said sure. I thought she was gonna then proceed to bring out a car to something. And because they were de icing the plane to make everybody happy when they give you out little snacks and drinks so people don't get all pissed off that the flight's still late, and she didn't ask anyone else for a drink, just to me.

00:20:42
Speaker 8: I don't know if it's.

00:20:43
Speaker 9: Because I was eating a hamburger. I'd ketchup budding down my face. Whatever was going on. She only offered me a drink. Then there was a blonde flight on that same flight with little braided hair. She comes over me and says, uh, save me a bite of lookd at hamburger.

00:20:55
Speaker 17: That.

00:20:55
Speaker 8: I was like, what is that about?

00:20:56
Speaker 9: And then when I got off the plane, She's like, you never saved me a piece of your hamburger. I'm like, what is that not a little bit of flirting. I want to, don't know, help me out.

00:21:03
Speaker 2: I would say, yeah, you know you might knowing you how you like to read into things. Yeah, I could see where you're thinking that that's so much to drink whatever.

00:21:12
Speaker 8: I could wink at that. You said that I didn't have any drink with me and I was eating.

00:21:15
Speaker 9: But the other two things about you know, you know there were flight dancing or saved me a bite and you didn't save me a bite.

00:21:21
Speaker 8: She remembered that for the hour and a half flight from Philly to Harford. I was like, wow, I got all excited.

00:21:25
Speaker 9: I was like, no, maybe there is a little I am a little attractive still in my old age with my belly and something looking like that.

00:21:31
Speaker 8: That's the heavyset guy that works out once a week and does buy suf curls for three minutes.

00:21:35
Speaker 7: Yeah, Paul, you know, my first thought before the story's commenced was that flight attendants are paid to be nice for customer satisfaction. When I hear those that seems like some light mid air flirting a little.

00:21:45
Speaker 5: Bit, Yeah, yeah, I would say that's above and beyond the call of duty.

00:21:51
Speaker 8: I certainly wasn't going to report her to like the airline or go to the pilot this.

00:21:55
Speaker 9: You got a flight attendant here saying that we're flight dancing and she wants to bite on my hamburger.

00:21:59
Speaker 10: I was.

00:22:00
Speaker 9: I was very you know, fled and excited about that. If you did that to her, they would probably take me off the plane. Some marshall would.

00:22:06
Speaker 5: Probably be anybody. They'd be waiting for you, be in some room.

00:22:09
Speaker 8: Be interrogated. I may never get home from Philadelphia.

00:22:12
Speaker 10: Yeah.

00:22:12
Speaker 6: See, the best thing that happened to you all day was the woman saying, some people call this flight dancing.

00:22:18
Speaker 8: That's the first thing that came to my mind, because she had to smile and.

00:22:20
Speaker 5: She made this that happened to you all day long was that?

00:22:24
Speaker 8: I think it was.

00:22:25
Speaker 9: I know We had a really good show that day and everything with all kinds of guests. But you know, we you know, we're accustomed to, you know, doing big things with the show and super Bowl week. But you know, she goes out of her way with the cart and kind of leans on top of or not next to me and said, I don't want to make this more than it was, but she kind of she could kind have just gone.

00:22:41
Speaker 10: Right past me.

00:22:41
Speaker 5: And she sat on my lap at that point, and she was sitting in my life.

00:22:43
Speaker 8: I said something some people call this flight dancing. I like that, said the best thing that happened to me all day.

00:22:50
Speaker 9: Then she smiled, and you know, now I feel like I got to report this to the wife so that I said that because did you I did not.

00:22:58
Speaker 8: I'm sure she'll hear about this and it'll be our social media.

00:23:02
Speaker 2: I can't give an opinion on this other than maybe a flight attendant, could you know, tell us if that's above and be on the call to do.

00:23:10
Speaker 8: I want to know. My questions are A. Is that considered flirtation?

00:23:12
Speaker 9: Am I just reading into it? And B was my response trying to be friendly? Was was my response inappropriate? As a married man just to say the best thing that happened to me all day. I didn't give her my number and say, you know, I'll talk to you later. Oh, you know, when's your next flight out? Maybe you know we can hang out. It was just like the best thing to happen to me all day, And that's what came out of my mouth. And after I said that, I went back to my seat and felt guilty for like the rest of the flight that I said that.

00:23:34
Speaker 5: Okay, if you were single, would you have asked her out?

00:23:39
Speaker 9: I felt like there was something to her saying like this whole You know, there's some people would call this flight dancing. What do you that's something you normally a flight attendant would be trained to say while someone's waiting to use the bathroom and they're getting out of your way, while they're giving out drinks with the cart.

00:23:52
Speaker 18: Yeah, and she was definitely pretty the one saying, hey, save me a bite that she was really cute, that's cutesy, that that's play. And then she doubled down when I got off the plane, when I disembarked, you diembark on a shoe deplane whatever it was. And then she remembered that she said that to me, said you never saved me a bite, And I'm.

00:24:09
Speaker 8: Like, oh my god, what's going on here? Yet flushing a little bit, and then I said, I'll get you next time. I promise. I don't know what Ever's wow, like there would be a next time.

00:24:18
Speaker 5: What if she said, hey, I got a layover in Hartford, I would I.

00:24:22
Speaker 9: Would say, I'm at Brooklyn, Fritzy. I don't have time to write out any numbers right now, but you can find me. It was very it was very flattering, and I wanted to shadow with you guys, not as a brag or anything, just like, what do you make of that?

00:24:31
Speaker 5: There's basically why I would say there's some flirting going on there. Yeah, I would if I.

00:24:36
Speaker 8: Felt like a new man.

00:24:37
Speaker 9: I had this rebirth of like I'm not just the you know, the chubby guy that works out once in a while, that's got two kids in their twenties, married twenty six years, Like you know, I was noticed by this flight attendant, which goes beyond what they're trained to do besides giving your pretzels and peanuts and a can of ginger ale.

00:24:50
Speaker 2: I had a woman who fell asleep on me on the way home and I and then she woke up, and then she was she's felled back and I said it's okay.

00:25:01
Speaker 5: She goes, and then she looked at my left hand.

00:25:04
Speaker 2: She goes, you're married, and I said, yes, like I didn't cause this, you fell asleep, And I said it's okay.

00:25:12
Speaker 5: She goes, Oh, I'm so embarrassed. I said, don't be it's okay. And then she said, hey, you want to buy to my Hamburger?

00:25:19
Speaker 10: And then.

00:25:21
Speaker 8: And now it's going to the next level. Now it's awkward.

00:25:23
Speaker 5: Saved me a bite, Yes, bully, I flew quietly, and so definitely nobody.

00:25:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was the best part of your day. The best part of your day. Let me see, uh, Lillian in San Jose?

00:25:39
Speaker 19: Yes, can you hear me?

00:25:40
Speaker 13: Yes?

00:25:42
Speaker 10: Yes?

00:25:43
Speaker 20: You know, the super Bowl was held in Santa Claire, but most of the events were in San Jose. And so the best part of the super Bowl was when I was watching it and then you could hear the flyover of the Jets, and I think the people in San Jose they were just excited just to have the.

00:25:57
Speaker 13: Super Bowl there.

00:25:59
Speaker 20: I mean, you could go buy the Levi Stadium and see all the you know, the logos and everything. But I do want to make a comment on Lindsay.

00:26:08
Speaker 10: Name the skier.

00:26:11
Speaker 20: I do believe that after that incident and you have an older veteran skier that has had issues in the past, I think we should reevaluate how we allow olympians to get into the Olympics that have had previous injuries and have wiped out before. And you know we do drug testing. I mean, Lindsay has had so many injuries, and she's had probably titanium and her body and all.

00:26:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she still qualified, Lily, and I have to wipe away what you did in previous Olympics. She qualified and because of that, she deserved to be able to try to compete. I was just surprised that maybe there wasn't somebody who could take her place after the ACL injury, and we even talked about it. You run the risk of more damage there. But thank you for the phone call. Justin in Florida, Good morning, Justin. What's on your mind?

00:27:11
Speaker 17: Hey Dan, good morning. You have always been a against individual player betting. Chris got her up was plus five thousand in the midday. Uh, and then Hideki got counted twice. I was just wondering if you think that had anything to do with the fact that Chris got her up had such crazy odds midday and you know, individual gambling in sports, it's just we're continuing to see more and more issues.

00:27:34
Speaker 5: Well wait a minute, what did got her ups odds have to do with the DECI.

00:27:40
Speaker 17: Because he was playing Hideki, you know it was it was the playoffs, so he got it was any you know, anything to throw off the Decky would then put money in anyone that had got her up to win.

00:27:50
Speaker 5: Oh you mean the crowd going against him? Yeah, the crowd.

00:27:55
Speaker 2: Well okay, Hideki could have won this in regulation. He screwed up the last couple of holes. As far as when you get you know, to a playoff, you know all I would say all bets are off, but maybe they're on. But thank you for the phone call, Justin. I don't like the individual, but that's golf. I mean, you got to if you're allowing betting, it is individual. But yes, can the crowd yell out things, can they disrupt?

00:28:22
Speaker 5: Yeah?

00:28:22
Speaker 2: They can. Look, this is just one big black hole when it comes to gambling. It's just a question of when these things are going to surface and how serious they are when they do.

00:28:34
Speaker 5: Angelo in Huntington Beach, Hi, Angelo.

00:28:38
Speaker 10: Heygan, how you doing today?

00:28:40
Speaker 5: Good?

00:28:42
Speaker 19: So I was calling because I mean, I'm shitting it all over the internet, and then I'm also talking to my coworkers about it, you know, and I'm hearing a lot of talk about how the Patriots had a super easy schedule to get into the super Bowl and whatnot. You know, seven of their wins were a single position or single possession games. And I'm just curious what your take is on it.

00:29:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've talked about their schedule. Their strength to schedule was one of the lowest in the NFL, if not the lowest. They didn't pick it. You can only play what's in front of you. I mean, it's not like a draw NCAA basketball where they go, we're gonna make that team a two seed instead of a three seed or a one seed. Now you're picking what their path is going to be. The Patriots didn't pick this. They took advantage of this. Adam in New York, Hi, Adam, Hey, good.

00:29:40
Speaker 13: Morning, Ded How are you good. I can't hear it? Can you hear me?

00:29:44
Speaker 9: Now?

00:29:45
Speaker 17: I got you? Adam?

00:29:46
Speaker 13: Okay, Yeah, I just wanted to comment last night and the commercials, I believe was talking about it earlier. It used to be about ten years ago, five years ago. It was something that we all looked forward to and discussed the next day at the water cool or whatnot. But last night the commercials, it's like it was like two different kinds of commercials. Either number one, they were they were showing some child and nostalgia like the lace commercial and tugging at the heart strings. And then the other kind where the commercials that these people just these companies just trying way too hard to be funny. And I just think the commercials were just they just were horrible last night. I just wanted to get your thoughts on it.

00:30:25
Speaker 10: Yeah, I just.

00:30:28
Speaker 5: I wasn't entertained by them. There wasn't.

00:30:31
Speaker 2: You know, ones where you start you're talking about them after, you know, when they when they come back to the football game, you're still talking about it or laughing about it or thinking about it.

00:30:41
Speaker 5: I just didn't.

00:30:42
Speaker 2: But I'm not the biggest guy when it comes to Hey, the halftime show and those commercials. I got a job to do, you know, and it's really concentrating on watching the game. The other stuff is on the periphery. Yeah, see it did.

00:30:55
Speaker 5: It felt like.

00:30:56
Speaker 6: Normal everyday football commercials. There really wasn't any anything special at all about any of them.

00:31:02
Speaker 5: That's fair yep.

00:31:04
Speaker 12: Uh.

00:31:05
Speaker 5: Andres in Seattle, Hey are you doing Dan good?

00:31:12
Speaker 15: First time?

00:31:12
Speaker 10: Longtime?

00:31:13
Speaker 21: Five six and a slim too.

00:31:15
Speaker 8: Two.

00:31:16
Speaker 21: Well, I just wanted to comment on congratulating DeMarcus Lawrence on leaving the trash can of the Cowboys to win the Super.

00:31:25
Speaker 5: Bowl with Seattle.

00:31:27
Speaker 8: And uh.

00:31:29
Speaker 21: Also, if Michah Parsons regrets calling him a.

00:31:32
Speaker 5: Clown, if Michael Parsons, what.

00:31:36
Speaker 21: If Marca Parsons regrets calling him a clown?

00:31:39
Speaker 2: Oh, he's a Super Bowl clown, super Bowl winning clown. Yet you don't really. I mean, it's the power of the Cowboys. When DeMarcus Lawrence is on the Cowboys. You knew DeMarcus Lawrence was on the Cowboys. It's one of those when you're watching the game, you're like, that's ah, that's right, DeMarcus Lawrence.

00:31:57
Speaker 5: I get this kind of like Pickens.

00:32:01
Speaker 17: He has that.

00:32:02
Speaker 2: Now if he leaves the Cowboys, then all of a sudden, it's now they're talking about maybe franchising him and then trading him.

00:32:09
Speaker 5: That's the latest with the Cowboys. Yes, yes, Marvin.

00:32:13
Speaker 11: That beef between Micah and DeMarcus Lawrence stemmed from DeMarcus Lawrence doing a press conference as soon as he got to the Seattle Seahawks and said, I love being a Cowboy, but I'm never going to win the Super Bowl here. And so Michah Parson's responded by calling mcowns. So that's where that stems from.

00:32:27
Speaker 12: And he was right, he was telling them the truth. Yeah, yeah, Mark, I just felt I was like DeMarcus lawns Is on the Seahawks. I know, if it's just weird, but that's what the Cowboys do to you. They go seven to nine and I'm like, DeMarcus lawns Is everywhere. Yeah, win a super Bowl. I know he was on the team Cowboys.

00:32:47
Speaker 5: It's kind of like ESPN.

00:32:48
Speaker 2: When you're at ESPN, it makes you really more powerful than you really are, as I as I found out when I left ESPN. But when you're there, it's like, yeah, you work in the Mothership, you get seen by all these people, and then all of a sudden you leave. You don't have those four letters there behind you, those powerful letters. All right, Well, take a break, last call for phone calls. What we learn once in store tomorrow right after this.

00:33:14
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio dot com and within the iHeartRadio app. Search FSR to listen live.

00:33:26
Speaker 2: I hope more quarterbacks and agents follow suit of what we saw with Sam Darnald and Baker Mayfield. That there has to be a sweet spot where maybe it's around thirty five million dollars still pretty good living, not everybody's fifty million dollars. That you go from being a rookie and then you put in your three or four years, then you get extended, but don't be afraid to hold on to the spot with your team so you don't price yourself out of there. And Sam Donald came in at a really good price for Seattle, Baker Mayfield a really good price for Tampa Bay, and they were able to play with a good team. Baker Mayfield with the playoff team, Sam wins his Super Bowl. Daniel Jones, it's going to be interesting to see what kind of money he wants, because he might be pricing himself out of a situation and maybe he wants to stay with the Colts what's going on with the Vikings now? They don't have a quarterback right now, maybe they break in bring in Kirk Cousins. Well, what's he going to come in at? Is it going to be a thirty five million dollar deal? I think it's really important to find there's three different tiers of quarterbacks. Rookies, that guy who might be on his third team, and then there's going to be the guy who's making fifty or sixty million dollars. And you got to have somebody who's going to be honest with you, and you got to be honest as well and say this is where I want to be, need to be. And Sam Donald won a Super Bowl because of that. Mike Golick Senior on the program tomorrow, Reggie Miller will stop by. By the way, Sam Donald ran the table with all of his insight. He made an extra four million dollars during the postseason. Mike in Oregon, Hey Mike, what's on your mind?

00:35:07
Speaker 10: Hey Dan? I just wanted to say we're here in the heart of Seahawks country and what a weekend. Man, But I have to say offense, defense, special teams now admit it was Josh McDaniel and man this came out of nowhere. Dan being a Seahawks fan since the beginning, We've been through everything, but this is a rebuild.

00:35:30
Speaker 8: Here.

00:35:30
Speaker 10: We were recovering from Gino and he is great, but he wasn't working. And suddenly we got this guy Sam Donald from Minnesota. We're not paying attention to Sam Donald. We're in a NFC West, We're paying attention to that. So suddenly we got this fourteen win quarterback. Why and we go into it the same as everybody here. He goes four games, he wins, eight games, he wins. Yeah, come on, it went up exponentially and this ride, Dan is amazing, and it's Josh McDaniel was a core there and I'm so happy. I can't explain. That's a destiny.

00:36:16
Speaker 2: All right, Well, congratulations, Mike. I would like to remind you the local reaction to when you brought in Sam Donald, not exactly throwing a victory parade there in Seattle, but it worked out.

00:36:28
Speaker 6: Yeston's maybe people don't want me to say this, but Sam Donald didn't win the game. He just didn't lose it. He got him to the game. I think you could you could say that, sure, yeah, absolutely, but it's not like he went out there and won the game for them. He was you know, he was asked to manage the game, don't throw any interceptions and give the ball to Kenneth Walker, and he did that very well.

00:36:52
Speaker 5: Rob in San Diego, Hi, Rob, what's sign your mind?

00:36:56
Speaker 10: Hey?

00:36:56
Speaker 13: Dan?

00:36:57
Speaker 5: How you doing good?

00:36:58
Speaker 3: I need your hope.

00:37:00
Speaker 14: A debate that my neighbor and I are having to pretty heat it debate at this point. Yeah, this is going to go for years on here depending on your answer here. But who had a worse QB performance? Was it Drake May from last night or Patrick Mahomes from last year? And I'm hoping recency bias doesn't sway it one way or the other.

00:37:22
Speaker 21: But I appreciate you guy, I would appreciate you guys.

00:37:24
Speaker 5: Wene In think you.

00:37:25
Speaker 2: Well, why don't I just look at the numbers, PAULI can we look at the QBR rating for Drake May last night? And Patrick Mahomes sure should be able to settle it simply. You know, I was thinking about the commercials last night. There was a lot of AI and there was crypto, and then there was like a lazed potato chip that was really a sentimental commercial. And then there was the goodwill Duncan at Ben Affleck and Jennifer Haniston and Tom Brady.

00:37:57
Speaker 5: Yeah, Paulie.

00:37:59
Speaker 7: So Drake last night twenty seven to forty three. I got him at two ninety five, two touchdowns, two picks, quarterback rating of seventy nine point one. Last year in the Super Bowl, Eagles won forty to twenty two. Mahomes was twenty one to thirty two, two fifty seven, three touchdowns, two picks, QB quarterback rating of ninety five point four.

00:38:21
Speaker 8: Okay, a little better.

00:38:22
Speaker 5: Yeah, so he had a better game than Drake. Maybe easy to settle.

00:38:27
Speaker 6: Yeah, see yeah, I mean I would I would think that the guaranteed, surefire first ballot Hall of Famer in his fifth Super Bowl would perform better than the year two quarterback going against the best defense.

00:38:40
Speaker 2: Thomas Indy, I don't know Thomas in Detroit, Hi, Thomas, what's on your mind?

00:38:46
Speaker 3: Heydp six three firm one to eighty and the member of the DDC. I just wanted to chime in on the Windy Vaughn situation that once you crashed, you hooked your arm on the gate, which is going to happen downhill. She had a competitive training run times behind Breezy Johnson. And you'd be hard pressed to find a downhill skier who hasn't been injured at some point, so can't really disqualify them for that.

00:39:11
Speaker 2: No, she earned the right to be there. Breezy ended up winning the gold. But I think that Lindsay was out there was, you know, at age forty one in that sport. That was very impressive. I just didn't know if the Achilles would have an impact on her and the way she skied. I mean, you got to be aggressive. You can't kind of half asked. It's got to be all out. And I just wonder if mentally if that that affects you or you're thinking it. Yeah, Pauline, great name, Breezy Johnson.

00:39:45
Speaker 5: Yeah for a skier.

00:39:47
Speaker 10: Yeah.

00:39:47
Speaker 5: I always like Peek a Boo Street.

00:39:49
Speaker 8: Oh it's great.

00:39:50
Speaker 2: She was teaching Snoop Dogg how to ski. Snoop's all over the place though, Snoop there.

00:39:58
Speaker 9: It is.

00:40:00
Speaker 5: This day in sports history, Pauling, he said.

00:40:02
Speaker 7: Down hissel yesterday, which is bred on cue for him. Eighteen ninety five in Massachusetts, volleyball was invented.

00:40:10
Speaker 17: How about that?

00:40:10
Speaker 5: Okay, hot better volleyball?

00:40:12
Speaker 8: All right?

00:40:13
Speaker 7: And here's one a player we love eighty nine. Kevin Johnson of the Suns hit a free throw in fifty seven straight games. Rando, I know you like Kevin Johns.

00:40:23
Speaker 10: Yeah.

00:40:26
Speaker 2: Rick Berry made eight three pointers in nineteen eighty Guys weren't taken eight three pointers. This is when he played with the Rockets. Rick Berry, underrated player, led Golden State, not single handedly, but he was the only real star on that team.

00:40:45
Speaker 8: Yes, Hunt, and he was shooting those threes underhand, which went.

00:40:47
Speaker 5: No, No, he was not, he was not, He was not.

00:40:53
Speaker 2: Greg Popovich won his one thousandth career game, and that was twenty fifteen. Let's go around the room see if we learned anything today. We didn't really get to this. Is there a memorable play from Sunday? Maybe we'll do that tomorrow, Todd, would you learn today?

00:41:09
Speaker 9: Bill Cower impressed with how Sam Darnol the gated Sacks by being elusive in the pocket seatan.

00:41:15
Speaker 6: Would you learn based on our pole results? The Seattle pass rush getting all the credit for last night's game?

00:41:20
Speaker 8: Marvin, you think jugglers are hot?

00:41:22
Speaker 5: Paul ross Tucker was not in London, Todd.

00:41:27
Speaker 9: Marvin wants to know us We all do one North Carolina fans in Chapel Hill felt the need to storm the court after beating Duke of the Buzzer and punching coaches in the face.

00:41:34
Speaker 5: Great to be back home. Thanks for joining us, have a great day. We'll talk to you tomorrow
