Hour 1 – NFL Week 4 Recap, Nobody Likes a Tie

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

00:00:04
Speaker 2: Hope you had a great weekend. Gangs all here ready to go. The lovely and talented Todd, Fritz Seaton, Marv Paulie, yours truly, and the backroom guys a lot of football to chop up. Baseball golf, Eagles over the Buccaneers, and Chiefs handled the Ravens, Rams over the Cold Steelers beat the Vikings, and we had a tie last night. I think that's the highest scoring tie in the history of the NFL. There's a tie that I believe it was forty three forty three in the AFL, and it might have been with the Boston Patriots, if memory serves me correctly. But in the history of the NFL, forty to forty is the highest tie in history. Merchandise store open for business and you can go to Danpatrick dot com. Stat of the Day is always brought to you by Benini America, the official trading cards of the program. It's a best and worst of the weekend. Phone calls always welcome eight seven to seven three DP Show operator Tyler's sitting by. He'll take your calls. First hour brought to you by the folks who've been doing it for over forty years tire Rack. They've been helping us find the right tires for how and what and where we drive, ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection, convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tirerac dot com. The way tire buying should be. Football coming up tonight. The Jets are on the road, but only a two and a half point underdog against the Dolphins, and the Bengals are getting seven and a half at the Broncos. I was thinking about the Bengals after watching what the Ravens did the Browns and the Steelers. The Steelers are going to have another winning record. I don't think they're a dominant team, but they could steal the division. If you look at the Ravens, that defense has been terrible, and even with Lamar Jackson in in Kansas City, they were getting blown out. Now he may have an injury that'll keep him out for a little while, which brings me to tonight. The Bengals might be wasting a year. If you have a chance to go out and get Kirk Cousins or Russell Wilson, he's going to give you a better chance because now if I look at the division, the Ravens don't feel like Super Bowl contender anymore. You got the Steelers, who are going to be good. I don't think they're great, but they're beatable. And then you have the Browns. But if I'm the Bengals, you signed up everybody, your best defender, your best receivers, everybody's under contract. Maybe if you got a quarterback in there who could be an upgrade, you could steal that division. And Jake Browning is not played well. I think that they're confident with him. I don't think they want to spend the money either. With Kirk Cousins, Russell Wilson, you could probably have you know, maybe it's a fifth round pick or a sixth round pick, but you could at him. And if you're the Giants, you like what you saw with Jackson Dart and you got Jameis Winston as his backup. But I was wondering about that. If you're the Bengals, do you survey now that division? Everybody's been outscored in that division and it doesn't seem we thought it was going to be a great division right now it's not. But take a shot. Do you want to waste another year and Joe Burrow maybe could come back in the playoffs, maybe with that turf toe surgery. But I was thinking about that that that might be something. If you're the Bengals, Okay, you know, we should kick the tires on this because we have a chance here, a lot better chance than people thought. All right, after what happened over the weekend, the Super Bowl odds updated by DraftKings. The Bills are the favorites, followed by the Eagles, Packers and Ravens are tied, and then closely behind is the Lions and then the Chiefs. Interesting that the Chiefs now feel like, okay, you get Xavier Worthy back and all of a sudden, because that offense wasn't very threatening, now all of a sudden, you give Mahomes a playtoy. Rashid Rice will be coming back soon. Now we're going to get a true sense of is Kansas City still that elite team or one of those elite team teams? The Chargers they charged you were three and oh and this is you know, you go west coast to east coast, you have an early call time, you're going against a rookie. And I thought Jackson Dark played well enough to keep them in the game, justin Herbert did not play well. And you know it's three and oh against Owen three. That was the surprising part of that that the Giants are the first oh and three team to beat a three and o team since two thousand and eight. Stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. But if you look at this, if you're a Giants fan, and you go, okay, we didn't like our quarterback situation. All of a sudden, maybe Jackson Dart is our future. And although they lost Molik Neighbors, he's probably gone for the season. You've got a really good defensive line, got rookie contracts here. I mean the Neighbors thing is big because he's a great receiver. And when I saw him go down, I thought, uh oh, I got an acl here. But Jackson Dart athletic enough keep things alive. He's got enough swag. You know, he's not afraid. And I like what I saw him, so did his head coach. Here's a Brian and Dable talking about Jackson Dart.

00:06:03
Speaker 3: I got a lot of confidence in our rookie quarterback. But he's a rookie quarterback, so there's gonna be mistakes that be made. We know that there'll be more next week. There was some this week. It's not gonna be perfect. Kid's a competitor. I'm sure he'll be the first one to tell you there's a lot that he can do better. We got to continue to help him do it better. But like his traits.

00:06:23
Speaker 2: I like his toughness. I'm glad we got him.

00:06:26
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:06:26
Speaker 2: I like when I see I can't imagine what Russ is thinking on the sidelines. It's like a boy. He had a touchdown run, touchdown pass, and it's over. Johnny so happy I made this possible for him. Yeah.

00:06:41
Speaker 5: Yes, but with attitude and gratitude you can get past these situations.

00:06:45
Speaker 2: Well yeah, he's gonna have to have both of those to be on the sidelines there.

00:06:50
Speaker 6: I would imagine in the NFL there is no more supportive backup than on any team than Russ. He will give you the impression that yet, yes, one hundred percent, you will no doubt.

00:07:03
Speaker 2: Yes. The cowboys in the Packers. It's one of those where you have a great meal and then there's no dessert. It was like, man, that was good. You know, I'd like to have a nice piece of carrot cake. Oh, I'm sorry, we don't have dessert. Forty to forty and it was fun. I thought the Cowboys were going to win the game. We had a semi streaming party last night with Shyan Irving and Dylan Marv was here and I said to Shay, hey, you should feel good. I think the Cowboys are going to win this game. He goes Danny and I go, no, I do I think they're going to win. And then at halftime Dylan and Shae were like, do you really believe? I said, yes, I think the Cowboys are going to win the game. And then they were going to take the halftime odds. I don't know what they bat or you know, if anybody won anything. But we were watching and I thought, okay, they stood that first quarter or so, and then I thought, all right, there turned back and if I'm a Packer fan, my defense is supposed to be great. It wasn't great. Dallas's defense is bad, and we knew that worse than bad? What is what is worse than bad?

00:08:15
Speaker 7: A sieve?

00:08:18
Speaker 2: It just felt like anytime Jordan Love wanted to throw deep, you know, it was like, oh, there were two guys that you know, that first pass that they threw, there were two guys that were open. Somebody needs to tell Golden this ain't Missouri, this ain't college. You can get away with those things when you're returning a kick.

00:08:39
Speaker 6: Or he got rocked on that play, absolutely crushed.

00:08:44
Speaker 2: Are you doing spinning? I know he did a little pirouette and then he also caught a path and then he tried to go, you know, like I'm gonna reverse field, and I go, you can't get away with that.

00:08:55
Speaker 6: By the time his eyes came back around, he just saw a gigantic man his face helmet to helmet with him, and.

00:09:02
Speaker 2: That was, yeah, brutal. It's like, but you know, it's a tie, And a lot of people probably were like, wait a minute, Yeah, in the regular season you can have a tie, not the postseason. Here is Jerry Jones talking about a tie and taking a shot at his former player.

00:09:28
Speaker 6: I don't want to play.

00:09:29
Speaker 8: That game was probably a great game for the NFL as far as the showcase for the game and competition, because you had outstanding quarterback play, you had some very talented people out there playing. You certainly had one of the most expensive players in the history of the NFL out there playing, and so I guess everybody was going to take a look tonight and decide to see what a fall there?

00:09:55
Speaker 2: Why Why is he taking a shot at Michael Parsons here? Yeah, Paul, if you.

00:10:01
Speaker 9: Watch that game, though, Parsons got bottled up for the most of the game. And by the way, I'd like to file a little protest, that was not a sack on that last play. No, it was Dak Prescott was running forward, which does not nullify a sack. But he just crossed the line of scrimmage and I looked at the spot. The spot's a foot ahead. So that means if you cross the line of scrimmage, is not a sack. Yeah, but a lot of people cash that check yesterday.

00:10:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was I think it is over. It is over. Under was three quarters of a sack. Does that sound right, Marvin?

00:10:32
Speaker 4: Yep?

00:10:33
Speaker 2: I know Shay and Dylan one took the over, one took the under. But yeah, no, it was fun to watch, you know, certainly back and forth it was just forty to forty. Yes, ton you said it was.

00:10:46
Speaker 5: Like not having getting dessert afterwards. I would go even a step further, especially for those of us on the East Coast that stayed up fully after midnight. That's like being handed the bill as well at the rest of what No, you're not getting deserted, you're paying for everybody sitting there and watching it ending the time.

00:10:58
Speaker 2: Here is Micah Parsh talking about is late game tackle with the game on the line.

00:11:06
Speaker 10: It's just all about not letting my teammates down going on every play. You know, I owe it to every person in organization, every person in that locker room, to get my absolute best every time. So I don't look at the play as like, you know, I think like I'm here and on this podium, because I'm supposed to make that play, not because it's like, oh my god, he made a play, Like I'm supposed to make that play. I'm supposed to help our defense. That's the reason why I was brought here, Like making places what I'm supposed to do. Taking eight over games is what I'm supposed to do. I don't think that like I should be rewarded for that play, like that's the reason why I'm here.

00:11:42
Speaker 2: I agree should have made some more plays that would have helped, but that defense, I was a little surprised there that and you know, and they're not they don't have CD, Lamb. Pickens played great, Dak played really well well. I thought that, you know, once again, offense seems to be okay. But CD's going to be out for a few more weeks. But Pickens played well, Yeah, Paul.

00:12:09
Speaker 9: At the end of overtime, the Packers cruised down the field and third yeah, and just they're all set. But then on third down they don't make it. So it's fourth and fourteen, and it appeared that they didn't even consider going forward on fourth and fourteen.

00:12:21
Speaker 7: Why don't you go for the win there? If you're the Packers.

00:12:24
Speaker 2: Now, I guess it's a horrible defense. Yeah, you got to come out with something. You can't come out with a loss. That's too far to go for fourth down. I know it's the Cowboys, but I and you're supposed to go for the win on the road, but it's got to And I don't know what the analytics would say with that, like I and maybe it says no certain yardage you don't or certain place on the field. I don't know that, but I understood what they were doing. I didn't like that they were going to do that, but that's just me as a fan. You can't come out with a law us. You can't put up forty and come away with the loss. And I think if you're Green Bay, you got some work to do here. And I don't think we thought that after we saw what they did to Detroit, and Detroit all of a sudden has come back. And I mean, granted they're playing the Browns, we don't know what we have with Minnesota. I think that's another one to keep an eye on because you know, this isn't JJ McCarthy yet. Carson Wentz is a good backup quarterback, but he made some really bad mistakes late in the game there. The numbers are deceiving there. But now you got to wonder, JJ McCarthy, you're going to be able to play and you know, injury prone, that's a good team. They're ready to win. Now it's sort of like the Bengals that you know, now you've got to find out do you bring in another quarterback? Are you comfortable with Carson Wentz. I don't know JJ McCarthy's time inframe here, but watching that, I was like, I don't know, I'm not quite sure all right, we'll come back. We'll get to our poll question. There's baseball to talk about, golf to talk about, college football to talk about, and we will talk to you about that with best and Worst of the weekend. What you saw that you liked you didn't like. Shan Irving will join us to recap the tie. We're back after this.

00:15:38
Speaker 12: Uh.

00:15:38
Speaker 2: It was last week when Paulie said that he thought he had witnessed the greatest throw in the history of throwing Justin Herbert. He rolled left, he threw back right through a touchdown pass. We talked to his head coach, Jim Horrible about that throw, and then Paulie goes, I think I found a better throw than Justin Herbert. I said, wait a minute, wait a minute. You you declared this the greatest throw in the history of mankind? Did it last a week? It lasted a week. Okay, are you ready? Yes, Okay.

00:16:14
Speaker 9: Dak Prescott and the Cowboys second and seven in overtime, thirty seven, thirty seven. He rolls right and gets rushed. He starts rolling backwards and right and he has to jump. He's about to get hit in the chest. He throws the ball from his forty seven to the three and hits Jalen Tolbert. It was unreal.

00:16:35
Speaker 2: That's the greatest throw ever.

00:16:37
Speaker 7: Maybe throw catch combo.

00:16:40
Speaker 2: Oh, now we're doing combo.

00:16:42
Speaker 9: When I saw the ball being thrown, I'm like, well, that's a throwaway. That was silly, and not many guys can make that. He's so strong, but that is it may be better. It's the greatest throw of all time.

00:16:54
Speaker 7: Ever, and I'll never replace it until next week.

00:16:58
Speaker 2: I just sent it to you, guys. I think it was a inspiration. Heave.

00:17:01
Speaker 7: It was, but he kept it alive.

00:17:03
Speaker 2: Receiver had to come back and it was a receiver bailout. I'm gonna I'm gonna give credit to the receiver rboever bail out. The greatest throw I've ever seen. I go, yeah, justin Herbert, No, I've got a new one. Top seven all times. Yes, Marvin.

00:17:21
Speaker 13: So, it's the combination of greatest throw and greatest reception.

00:17:25
Speaker 2: Is that what we're saying? I guess now, Okay, regular season on a side and a game that ends in a tie. Yes, by far the best time. Okay, all right, can we come up with something. NFL's in the entertainment business. PAULI has had an idea about getting rid of ties, regular season ties in the NFL, and I think he's onto something, but I think it needs to be workshopping a little bit more.

00:17:50
Speaker 9: Okay, Briefly, before game starts, each head coach gives to the refs what their kicker can max out as a kick if the game goes to overtime ends and a tie. It's very it happens three times a year maybe, And so Brandon McManus and Brandon Aubrey.

00:18:05
Speaker 2: Right, mister McManus.

00:18:06
Speaker 9: So Aubrey's head coach would say, my guy can hit it from sixty eight yards. McManus's coach would say, I can hit it from sixty six yards. Nobody knows. And at the end of the game last night, instead of everyone going, oh, it's a tie, the announcers would have revealed that Cowboys have the ball with a chance to kick a sixty eight yarder for the win or the loss with Brandon Aubrey because they said they would go for the farthest field goal to end it. They line up against the Green Bay Packers defense and it's a real field goal try. He makes it, they win, he misses it, they lose. No chance of a tie in an NFL game.

00:18:36
Speaker 2: Your thoughts, Now, we're kind of tired of things coming down to a kicker, so I think he got to be aware of that that were kickered out, then we would have to go with the college way, where you no, I don't want that, which is a two point conversion over and over and over until somebody wins. But college football does not have ties anymore. Okay, how about we do this. Let's say we start an elimination where you started the fifty five yard locke a kickoff, Yes, and there's no defense. I just put the kicker out there with the holder and the long snapper.

00:19:12
Speaker 9: I like your idea, but I think the purest will be mad that there's no defense out there for the chance of the block, and there's been more blocks this year than in the past ten years. But both work because it prevents a tie.

00:19:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got to workshop that a little bit, yes, Tom.

00:19:30
Speaker 5: And with no defense, then it's just like one of those college game day kicks that's just got to make money through a scholarship. You've got to got to have something competitive going on. And what happens if both coaches picked the same yard line for the kick, then they both get it, you have to kick it. And then if they both make it or miss it, then you got to you know, then.

00:19:44
Speaker 2: You know, we got to work shop this right.

00:19:46
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:19:46
Speaker 6: Yeah, So I don't like the idea of picking your distance, but I do like the idea of it coming down to sort of a field goal off. I do like that where I say, I like the two point conversion thing. Too endless two point conversions until somebody wins. I like that a lot a lot. But if maybe if you start, say like at the thirty, and each team kicks from the thirty, and then you go to the thirty five and each team kicks, and then you go to a forty and you have to go until a team misses and the other team makes it, I could get behind that.

00:20:20
Speaker 2: I think it would take too long for that. I think let's you can build the drama at fifty because it feels like man, fifty fifty used to be a long field goal. Now it's not. But I think you could go fifty fifty five, then get to sixty, and then go sixty one, sixty two, sixty yes time.

00:20:38
Speaker 5: And each team's allowed to do the leverage play that got burned by I guess the culture.

00:20:44
Speaker 2: I think you should be able to do. That would make it exciting. You can climb on top of each other to try to block it. Yeah, I'm that situation in the yell.

00:20:51
Speaker 9: But my kickoff you have the reveal of the yardage, which the announcers can do. That build some anticipation, and it's over in sixty seconds. Okay, someone's lining up, miss.

00:21:03
Speaker 2: Block, hit it, But then you're gonna If you miss the kick, then I have there has to be a score that is revealed that says I won the game. It's going to be forty forty.

00:21:14
Speaker 9: So obviously, if Brandon Aubrey hit last night under my new plan, which is gonna happen, it'd be forty three forty. If he misses, is it forty forty? What do they do with Seaton parentheses? Parentheses one minus three.

00:21:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, see, that's an ugly box score. We worked that out. I think you're on the I think you're on the scent of it.

00:21:37
Speaker 9: Because remember, Americans hate ties. It's the only sport in our country really where you could have ties and know hockey. There's no ties in hockey at all anymore. Right, even the regular season shoot shootout, so they got ties used to be commonplace in hockey generation.

00:21:53
Speaker 2: Uh Shyan Irving joining us on the program. How do you feel after the tie?

00:21:58
Speaker 4: Let's feel disgusted, Davie, feel sure you're appear I feel weak, I feel sad. I feel emarriage to be a part of something that allows that.

00:22:08
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you there's some positives there. I mean you didn't lose.

00:22:14
Speaker 4: I'll tell you the one positive, Jinny, the one positive is that the unemployment line should have one more person in it. That clock operator needs to be investigated. You're in overtime with the magically one second left after Jordan Love gambles, No boot replay, no nothing they do right over it. Where's he from, who's he married to? Where do you go to school? What's his browsing history? I want to know everything about that man.

00:22:38
Speaker 2: Wait, it was a home game. It was a home clock.

00:22:41
Speaker 6: I know.

00:22:42
Speaker 4: But Dallas is a Trasia city, Danny. I'm all over the country living there. I want to know.

00:22:50
Speaker 2: I did tell you that I thought the Cowboys were going to win that game.

00:22:54
Speaker 4: You did master domas. It's weird. It's strange, but yeah, you call the whole lot of weird things right in front of my eyes. I know.

00:23:01
Speaker 2: There were a couple was I go, you know what, blah blah blah, and then all of a sudden it would happen, and then shaved. I said, no, these are all positives. Man, you're gonna you guys are gonna win this game. You can win this game, and then you, guys.

00:23:14
Speaker 4: Danny the way to let it. Josh Jacobs is running wild in my dreams right now, all over my hopes and happiness. They could not stop him for the run or anything. They don't deserve to win, but they sure Kaill doesn't deserve to tie. Danny. That's weird. We don't like that. Get it away from us, Keep it in Europe.

00:23:34
Speaker 2: Now, did you get credit? Did you win your bed with Michael Parsons with the one sack?

00:23:38
Speaker 4: Yeah, they gave me credit for that.

00:23:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not a sack.

00:23:42
Speaker 4: Whatever, Danny.

00:23:43
Speaker 2: But it wasn't though, uh cash money, I know, but still wasn't a sack, you know that?

00:23:50
Speaker 4: Okay?

00:23:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, well whatever, all right, Uh well we'll do another streaming party here soon, semi streaming party that right. Yeah yeah.

00:24:02
Speaker 9: Paulie, a guy I know, emailed me about a half an hour ago, hurt us on the air. The stats in the NFL are not made official until Monday. They sometimes tweak things. It's not that big of a deal, but the stat people the NFL, they like stamped the stats in the history books on Monday and Tuesday.

00:24:19
Speaker 7: I'm not gonna say pending, but prob.

00:24:22
Speaker 2: Okay, so Shay may not win that pen. There is no way that we could go live, right Marvin live?

00:24:34
Speaker 4: What U?

00:24:35
Speaker 13: No, no, no, none of the streaming absolutely not no, heck no, I know, but DP hold on, hold on. But you also, between.

00:24:45
Speaker 2: You and Shay, well, I'm just trying to tee him up a little bit, just trying to get him going a little bit.

00:24:51
Speaker 13: Because there was some back and forth between you two. I was like, between the two of you, there's there's no way that's a kila look good.

00:24:58
Speaker 2: Though I know I had some tequila, had a great cigar. We ordered Taco Bell late night. Nice, yeah, Dylan. Dylan's like, yup for tacos, Like probably not three tacos later, I'm like, thank you Dylan for getting some tacos there. It's nice. All right, Seeton poll question for the first hour and what are you thinking?

00:25:20
Speaker 6: Well, I think we start with the worst of the week worst of the weekend. Okay, got some options here for you. We could start with maybe Team USA and Keegan Bradley. That was a rough weekend, rough weekend all all around there.

00:25:35
Speaker 2: You know, the players at least came back and made it respectable. The fans did not the but you know, this is the environment that you know, we've embraced, we've encouraged for the last two years. Oh wait till about the fans. Yeah, wait till a Ryder Cup gets to Long Island. Bethpage Black and it's become WWE type field now it shouldn't. And somebody throwing a beer at Rory's wife, things that were said out there. You know, now it's going to be incumbent upon the European team when this is played in Ireland in two years. To say, let's show how you know, you can still root, have fun, have a you know, a great atmosphere without it being personal attacks on people. But once again, this was the build up, this was the hype. If you're a fan, You're going out there thinking, I'm defending my country here, I'm going to be yelling. I'm I'm going to be part of the team here, I'm going to wrap myself in the flag. And you know, it got ugly, but you know, Team USA was playing horribly and the Europeans were celebrating the Team USA made it respectable. But this is the atmosphere.

00:26:54
Speaker 5: Yes, Ton, there's always that group of people that I'm just looking for a reason to act obnoxious and be stupid, as opposed to any kind of pro America kind of rant going on. That's just a little sidebar you can hide behind the flag. I just want a reason to scream and yell and be a jerk to people.

00:27:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Paul.

00:27:12
Speaker 9: It's weird because the usual golf crowd, there's an etiquette around being at a golf event. You kind of dress a certain way, you act a certain way, you're quiet during the backswing, and it's like these golf fans they throw all the rules out because it's the Ryder Cup, and it's it's weird because it's the opposite of a normal golf event.

00:27:28
Speaker 2: I don't think these are golf fans, right, because if you go to the Phoenix Open Waste Management, it's a party. That's that's what. That's the reason why you're going. It's a party, and you'll act accordingly. It's a party. But no, that's not the way you act normally. But and it's you know, it shouldn't be an indictment on everybody who's there, but it feels like it is. You know there there's always going to be that element because you allowed that element unless you're you know, escorting people out. There is that element there. But Team USA made it respectable. What else do we have?

00:28:10
Speaker 6: Yes see Keigan Bradley getting blamed a lot too on the course setup.

00:28:14
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he talked about that that it didn't play the way he thought it was going to play and didn't favor the strengths of Team USA. You know, Europe just played great, They played unbelievable those first two days and then all of a sudden, USA came back and acted like they were great players. It just you see what the Ryder Cup means to the Europeans, to Shane Lowry, to Tommy Fleetwood, to Rory it just means more. And they showed that. I mean, they talk about that Shane Lowry won a British Open and he said, this is what I want. This is the more, this is what I'm most proud of because it was a team effort. And I think that is sometimes lost on us in what we want with our team when they're talking about getting paid. Who likes one another? You know, they put aside everything team Team Europe. You could feel it and it's you know, it's tangible.

00:29:23
Speaker 13: Yes, Marvin, that feels like that's the case in most sports where you talk about even like the Joker, he wins the NBA title, oh hohum, whatever, but he wins something for his country. It feels like he won he.

00:29:36
Speaker 2: Won a medal, He won a bronze, didn't he.

00:29:38
Speaker 13: Yes, And he felt like he won the gold medal. Yes, Because to them it feels like international competition for their team and for their country is way more important than the Masters or the British Open or the US Open.

00:29:50
Speaker 2: Well, it's like Djokovic when you know, I was told that if he wins Olympic gold, it'll mean more than any of the majors he's ever won. And that's what happened. He talked about that. But you know, keep in mind that the Europeans have always been the little brother, or at least perceived as a little brother. But they're not. And I think you saw that that there's that, you know. So they were big underdogs, and I think it was all you're going to get eaten up by New York. You know that team Scheffler. Nobody can beat Chef. You know, all of these things leading up to this, and I think they were like, all right, well we'll see and then all of a sudden, you know, it's a snowball effect. When one wins, another one wins. Somebody makes a putt saying, you know, the roars or the lack of roars around that course, SCHAMPOLLI.

00:30:41
Speaker 9: The next Ryder Cup September seventeen to nineteen twenty twenty seven a dare Manor in Limerick, Ireland. Are we still in business? We're still in business. I just checked the calendar.

00:30:51
Speaker 2: Are we still in business?

00:30:53
Speaker 7: We should grow out.

00:30:55
Speaker 2: I've been to a dare Manor, played the golf course there.

00:30:58
Speaker 7: Gorgeous, right, yes, awesome. You should show us around there.

00:31:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll show you around my manner. Yeah, dude, that would be sick. And then we would be on in the afternoon. Right, we could do that, dude, that would be great. You kidding? So when is that going to be?

00:31:17
Speaker 9: September seventeen to nineteen, twenty twenty seven, lots of time to plan.

00:31:22
Speaker 2: But I'm done in February twenty twenty eight. Yeah, five months later. That's a nice one to put on the count Oh boy, is it ever? See and fire that one up? I've been writing it in pen not even pencil. Yes, we could all write limericks Limerick, Ireland and now went out. No, no, okay, we'll go on pros and cons. That's fine. It's fair to do smart.

00:31:41
Speaker 5: You don't do limericks in Limerick, Ireland.

00:31:44
Speaker 7: All right?

00:31:44
Speaker 2: Maybe one maybe one a day?

00:31:47
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's fine.

00:31:48
Speaker 7: He could drive the Maco van overseas.

00:31:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, we get it on a barge and barge it out. I like it be there in two weeks. Bring a tragger, grill, yep, ready to go?

00:31:57
Speaker 7: All right, that sounds good.

00:32:00
Speaker 2: I'll take that under consideration. What other poll questions are we thinking we haven't even gotten through the first one. Dan, we scratched the first the surface on the first one. Then how about I take a break to give you a little more time. Hey, if that's what you want to I'm going to do that. I got to get to phone calls here and uh, you know, there's a lot of things, there's a lot of moving parts to do it. Busy Monday. I'm sort of the conductory and this is the orchestra.

00:32:24
Speaker 6: Mm hmm is this first chair, second chair?

00:32:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, something like that strings obo. I wonder if you could do that and still pull it off, like if you got up there and then just started, you know, with the wand a little bit.

00:32:41
Speaker 9: As a conductor, Yeah, it's basically a four count.

00:32:45
Speaker 2: But if you're you're already knowing what the music is and then you're just looking at me for timing.

00:32:51
Speaker 9: You're kind of writing a plus sign up to the right to the backing up and down is the fore count for a conductor.

00:32:59
Speaker 2: But I would be that mad. Yes, I'd like Bradley Cooper. Yes, I would have long hair, and I'd be I'd be really demonstrative with it.

00:33:09
Speaker 4: All.

00:33:09
Speaker 2: Right, let me take a break. Uh, play of the days up next to your phone calls settle on a poll question after this.

00:33:36
Speaker 4: Check this out.

00:33:37
Speaker 14: It's good.

00:33:37
Speaker 4: Snap block.

00:33:40
Speaker 1: Bears blocked the kick.

00:33:41
Speaker 14: They blocked the field goal on fourth to three for thirty two seconds to go in the game. The Bears blocked the kick. It might be Josh Blackwell. Gotta see the replay to make sure. But the Bears are celebrating. They're gonna sneak out of Allegiate Stadium for the twenty five twenty four wins.

00:34:00
Speaker 2: That's courtesy of the Bears Radio network. That was win number one hundred in the regular season for the Chicago Bears. Eight hundred, eight hundred regular season wins. That's franchise win number eight hundred, one hundred. Will be that bad after eight hundred, Yes, honey, aren't they just compilers?

00:34:23
Speaker 4: Though? With that, you know, I played.

00:34:24
Speaker 2: For a certain number of years. The ended around a long time. Eventually you'll get there. Eight hundred regular season wins. How many block kicks do you think there have been so far?

00:34:36
Speaker 15: Paul nine, Marvin eleven, God seven, Seaton five sixteen nine field goals, three extra points, four punts so far.

00:34:50
Speaker 2: Only once in the last thirty five years have there been more blocked kicks through the first four games of a season, and that was in twenty four.

00:35:33
Speaker 9: Yes, Paul, is somebody smart to look at this stat. I have a theory on the block kicks. Kickers are trying longer kicks with a lower trajectory, giving more odds to getting it blocked. Could that be possible? I don't know how many of these kicks are fifty plus?

00:35:47
Speaker 2: Okay, but how does that factor in with extra points and punts? I don't know.

00:35:52
Speaker 7: Those are anomalies.

00:35:54
Speaker 2: Well, maybe you have you know, there's a certainly a science to this it's rare when somebody off the corner, off the edge, and that's what happened with the Bears off the off the edge. Now it feels like up the middle is where you're getting a lot of these blocks. Uh. Gerald McCoy is going to join his son Loan from NFL Network coming up next door. Oh ask him all right? Uh, Buddha in San Francisco, Hi, Buddha, what's on your mind?

00:36:22
Speaker 4: Happy Monday? Boys?

00:36:23
Speaker 12: Every day is a super Bowl.

00:36:25
Speaker 4: Let's go baby.

00:36:27
Speaker 12: Damn what a month Green Bay has had. I mean, like they went from being a juggernaut to losen to the Browns, and then last night happens. I mean that's wild.

00:36:37
Speaker 16: And uh, when the Dallas Cowboys tie, it's like following Fritzy in the fast lane, frustrating U best of the weekend and Dallas versus Packers coming to an end and end in the tie, and.

00:36:51
Speaker 12: It was just it was a very entertaining game. And listening to Jerry Jones sound like doctor Phil and just like spilling and uttering words and being long winded as always entertaining and the worst of the weekend. Then while watching the Chargers lose yesterday to a rookie quarterback in New York. I couldn't help but hear your voice in my head, Dan, like you've said it so many times on the show, like you just can't jump on that padwagon anymore. I mean, fool me once, Shame on you. And they just lose in such like chargery ways and they disappoint not good.

00:37:28
Speaker 2: Thank you, budhen Yeah, I'm watching and I kept waiting for Justin Herbert to be Justin Herbert and it never happened. But he got hit twelve times. It's it's hard to play the position and get hit twelve times. I know the offensive line is a little banged up there, but twelve times. Giants defense is good, but it's not that good. All right, Seaton, did we settle on a poll question? Well, we're kind of going over worst of the weekend. Let's see.

00:38:04
Speaker 6: We did Team USA and Keegan Bradley with Sam Pittman and Arkansas football. They got absolutely crushed by Notre Dame and he got fired. Yeah, that's unfortunately. You know, the Giants had a win, but elite neighbors being hurt, that's not that's a terrible weekend. Yeah, terrible, Kirby smart number five Bulldogs. They lost to Alabama. They're still having a great season, but that's a win you want.

00:38:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, you lose at home? Done done, a stay of execution there for Kaitlin de Boor.

00:38:44
Speaker 4: Yeah.

00:38:44
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a week to week basis right there. Let's see some other options. We got Florida State, they got double overtime loser to Virginia on a Friday night on a Friday night. Good grief Penn State and James Franklin overtime loss at home to Oregon.

00:39:01
Speaker 2: And I'm going to bring this up to Rick Neuheisel. He'll join us later, but is being good good enough at Penn State? Now? You know, granted everything that happened with Paterno and Jerry Sandusky and just having a program that is clean you can be proud of, and they certainly have that. They they've sent a lot of players to the NFL. But I mean the numbers, it's not coincidental. This is, you know, habit forming, it's systemic. When you're four and twenty one against top ten teams under James Franklin, you got to win this, got to win this. You're at home, you got to win, you know. Congrats to the Ducks who have won twenty three consecutive regular season games. All right, somebody, but.

00:39:54
Speaker 1: That's where.

00:39:57
Speaker 2: If if James Franklin had these numbers at Michigan, he wouldn't have his job. At Ohio State, he wouldn't have his job Alabama Georgia, he wouldn't keep his job. But maybe it's just they're good. But is how long is good good enough?

00:40:12
Speaker 4: Yeah?

00:40:12
Speaker 9: Pauling in twenty twenty one, he was seven and six, and there's a lot of articles that said, this is it.

00:40:17
Speaker 7: He's gone.

00:40:18
Speaker 9: The next three years he won eleven games, ten games, thirteen and three last year in a college football playoff. You know, it's like he's not giving them the opportunity with a bad season.

00:40:27
Speaker 2: Gus in La Hi, Gus will squeeze you in Best and Worst of the weekend.

00:40:32
Speaker 17: Good more than mister Patcher. I hope you and the boys had a great weekend. Let's get the worst out of the weekend once again, my USC Trojans showing the nation why we're not serious title contenders. And then late last night in the little worst of the weekend, Juju Watkins out for the whole theason that pretty much put in extinguishing hopes on our title chances. Best of the weekend. My Steelers started off with a great day of football. But how important and we just talked about about the field goals, But how important or how frustrating our special team's becoming. It's like, is it a simple fix?

00:41:10
Speaker 2: Is it?

00:41:10
Speaker 4: Like a dear guy? I mean even on the extra point?

00:41:13
Speaker 17: You know that Cowboys extra point, that two point are determined to score at the end. How important is going to be? The embarrassing of the weekend at a night Mitchell run with the damn ball all the way through the goal line.

00:41:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was tough to watch. Yeah, the ju Ju Watkins, you know she had surgery in the off season. Gonna be extra cautious here. She's gonna miss the entire season. That's shame. That's shame. All right, one hour of the Book's two more to go on this Monday. Fritzy Seat and Marv Paul Years. Truly we're back after this
