Hour 3 – Bengals Need a QB, Rick Neuheisel

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

00:00:06
Speaker 2: Yes, the T shirt that we discovered on Friday, the passhole t shirt is up on the Danpatrick dot com website and you can purchase that and we could all flip off Todd since he won't move from the passing lane. There it is. If you're watching on Peacock, we have the t shirt. Lovely, it's available. Oh, very exciting. Are you gonna wear one of those?

00:00:34
Speaker 3: Time?

00:00:34
Speaker 4: You know what I think I would? I think you should not to like parent teacher confidence.

00:00:38
Speaker 2: Now nobody know. You got to pick a spot. All righty, we'll talk to some college football. Rick new Heize on loan from CBS Sports will stop on a little bit more of your phone calls. Good morning. If you're watching on Peacock or our radio affiliates around the country. AFC East matchup, it'll be Josh Allen the Bills at home against Drake May and the Patriots in primetime on NBC and Peacock. I saw where the Vikings. Vikings were in Ireland to play the Steelers. Now they'll be in London to face the Browns. They wanted this, they wanted back to back games in Europe because their market research International Market Research estimated that forty percent of the crowd at Dublin's Croke Park and up to sixty percent at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will be Vikings fans. This is about, you know, brand expansion. It's it's about looking at this globally and not locally. And they said, we'll do back to back games over there and play to our fan base. I don't know how you feel if you're a Viking fan back in Minnesota, but they are trying to grow their fan base all of these teams. Now you've seen what I've told you was going to happen. The commissioner came out and said, they're going to have, you know, an entire schedule of international games for everybody. Everybody's going to play an international game. They're going to sell this to the TV networks. They're going to sell this separately. And that's where you know, Amazon, somebody is, you know Netflix, Somebody's going to go, hey, we'll take all of those international games. Let's expand our brand internationally. Eight seven to seven three DP show email address DP at Danpatrick dot com, Twitter handle a TP show operators sitting by Tyler, He'll take your phone calls. Best and worst of the weekend. I mentioned this to start the show. You have the Bengals tonight against the Broncos. They're seven and a half point underdogs. You're looking at the division now, the AFC North. The Ravens aren't what we thought they were going to be, certainly not defensively. The Steelers are going to be a ten win team, you would think. Then you start to look Cleveland Browns aren't very good. And if you're the Bengals, you don't have your quarterback, but you have everybody else. You spent on your star defensive player and your two star wide receivers. Can you upgrade? Should you upgrade? You can upgrade? Should you upgrade? It feels like you're you're gonna lose a season here, and it feels like you you know, Kirk Cousin's gonna cost you more. But I would still take a run at Russell Wilson. Yeah, seton.

00:03:28
Speaker 5: But if you upgrade and that person does well and gets you to the playoffs and Joe Burrow.

00:03:34
Speaker 2: Is available, oh no, no, you're there until Joe's available. Right, However, it's the guy that got you there. I would say to Russ or Kirk Cousins, do you want an opportunity to play football? Because if not, you can stay in Atlanta and stay in in New York. But if they come in, you're going to play until Joe gets help. But you might be playing twelve thirteen games and getting a chance to then do a reboot on your career, a reset on your career, and maybe you're going to be playing in the playoffs. Would I rather have that scenario where I'm going to play or I'm going to be a backup with the you know, the Giants or the Falcons. But if I'm the Bengals, I would certainly make a run at them. Yeah, pulling, and this has happened before. It's a little apples and oranges. Remember that Bronco Super Bowl team Peyton Manning gets hurt, Oswiler goes five and two, and the big debate was, you know, who do you stick with? Where do you go?

00:04:34
Speaker 6: It's a good problem to have just anyone who can get you a playoff spot.

00:04:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know it starts to get late early with some of these teams, Like I don't know, after four weeks after five weeks and they're not expected to beat the Broncos. But then there are other games where you know, might be a little tighter, you might be an underdog where you normally wouldn't be. And that's where if you bring in and I'm not saying Russ is you know, let Russ cook, but still he's an upgrade over Jake Brown with those receivers, I mean, Kirk Cousins.

00:05:11
Speaker 7: I would go.

00:05:12
Speaker 2: All in on Kirk Cousins. But you know, with the Falcons pay part of the salary, do we have to give up the draft pick? You know, so you have to start to look at this and go, okay's let's do the math. Yeah, Pauline.

00:05:24
Speaker 6: And if you look at the Bengals schedule, they play the Steelers twice in the next seven weeks, and then they finish the season the Bengals with Ravens, Dolphins, Cardinals, Browns. That's three winnable games at the end you can steal a playoff spot.

00:05:38
Speaker 2: And then the other portion of this you have the Jets. There are two and a half point underdogs in Miami tonight, and I like Mike McDaniel, but I don't know if you survive if you lose and and the Jets are only two and a half point underdogs here, and there are going to be a lot of Jets fans there in South Florida, and the Jets look pretty good last week, and maybe Aaron Glenn's got something going on there. But you got one team that maybe is starting to believe that they could actually be good, with another team supposed to be thinking that they're good and maybe starting to have doubts, but that that could be a mess, certainly with the Dolphins. But those are the two games coming up tonight. Matt in Nashville leads us off final hour. Hi Matt.

00:06:25
Speaker 8: DP again at the morning. Appreciate the time, fourth time, long time, six foot and a dad by a perfect one. Hey, I'm a long suffering University of Virginia football fan, so I've gotten no worse this weekend too. Best the game itself awesome, atmosphere was incredible ESPN, the coverage is great. Louis Riddick was awesome, and the game was very very well played on both sides. So it was cool to see. Random stat of the day. Florida State do not schedule Virginia and Charlottesville in the years that end in five nineteen ninety, I've be I think number one ranked FSU five be the top ten ranked team. Obviously this week Friday top ten team, and then two to fifteen didn't schedule other watch perp would have beaten them then to second bath, and I would say I was thinking about PAULI the entire time. I don't know if y'all watch the game, but every time there was a review or replay of a you know, a controversial call, they actually listened in on the conversation between the rets and the ACC home office to a determined to call. I thought that was incredible, very very well done. Kudos ESPN and ACC for making that happen. I said, I'm hide and hide. Then we are ranked now for the first time in twenty nineteen. There we go with the college playoffs.

00:07:44
Speaker 2: Baby, all right, thank you, Matt. Keep keep dreaming. I love that they're gonna let us in. And I've been saying this for years. Give us transparency when you're doing replay, let us know what they're discussing. And I applaud the ACC to you know, be the first to jump into that. But I've said before, we why can't we eat eavesdrop, I could be great.

00:08:11
Speaker 7: You.

00:08:11
Speaker 2: The more we stay attached to our TV, the better it is for everybody.

00:08:17
Speaker 4: Yes, Tod, what are they afraid we'll get over here? Well, we gave them the last call we got. We gotta make this one up. Just give them just say it was that about?

00:08:23
Speaker 2: Hey Barney? Uh did you see that one? I had no idea. I didn't see it. How about you, Jimmy? Uh yeah, I think I kind of did. I don't know. What do you guys think? Uh? We say overturn it?

00:08:38
Speaker 4: Uh?

00:08:39
Speaker 2: Jay and Georgia, Hi ja? Best and worst of the weekend?

00:08:42
Speaker 7: Hey Dan?

00:08:43
Speaker 2: How are you great? Jay?

00:08:46
Speaker 9: Hey? I get a couple of best and the worst and a birthday wish if I can. First off, the worst, my wife and I were at the game. We're Alabama. Took care at Georgia and made George and Cover Spartan made Kaitlin the board look like a second coming to Nick Saban, it was terrible.

00:09:05
Speaker 10: Uh.

00:09:06
Speaker 9: The best was Landiana Hoosiers making it ugly. But they're they're undefeated again, so that's good.

00:09:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Mendoz is a good story. He's him and Diego Pavilla. Those are two really good stories there, but yeah, Kirby Smart does not do well against Alabama. One in seven with Kirby Smart against Alabama.

00:09:31
Speaker 6: I didn't realize it was that bad.

00:09:32
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and Georgia had a thirty three game home winning streak. Who do we want to hear from Marv? Do we have Kirby Smart? Okay, here's Kirby talking about the loss.

00:09:46
Speaker 11: I mean, what's everybody else's record against him?

00:09:48
Speaker 2: You got it?

00:09:49
Speaker 7: I don't.

00:09:50
Speaker 11: I don't either. I don't lose sleep over that because those games have been like championship caliber games, right, and even when playing the regular season they been I just saw twenty five scouts out there. They're all there to watch these teams play. So that's not going to affect me, Like I'm gonna be happy and just go lucky. If our team comes back and plays, will that's what I worry about. But that's just we gotta get better and next year it won't have anything to do with this year.

00:10:18
Speaker 2: I mean, he's got good problems, but still if he says, oh, we're playing a championship game, that didn't make it any better, that makes it worse. You're one and seven, yes, and you can't.

00:10:30
Speaker 4: Say what's everybody else's record against them? You know, Georgia, you're one of the top teams in the country. You can't worry about how the other schools.

00:10:37
Speaker 2: Are doing against them.

00:10:38
Speaker 4: I don't like that at all. And if it was the other way around and there were seven and one against Alabama, you'd be tweeting his horn a lot about them.

00:10:44
Speaker 2: This weekend the first regular season weekend in which three of the top five ranked teams lost the first time since twenty sixteen.

00:10:56
Speaker 12: Stand a Day Day, Heyataday. This is the stand of the Day Stata.

00:11:06
Speaker 2: To Day, brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the program. The Giants the first OH and three team to beat a three and O team since two thousand and eight, when the OH and three Chiefs beat the three and oh Broncos. Todd, we don't need to bring these things up. We do. Uh Kevin in Rochester? Hi, Kevin, what's on your mind today?

00:11:31
Speaker 7: Excuse me?

00:11:31
Speaker 13: Thanks for taking my calls. Guy Fellas five to seven, left handed, oneint eighty point guard pass, first point guard pass, first point guard in my forty and older rec League Best of the Weekend four and oh Buffalo Bills, Go Bills, move to four and oh and at least an exciting finish to the Ryder Cup at beth Page. We had the Ryder Cup in nineteen ninety five here at Oak Hill in Rochester and love to have that event back. The worst of the weekend is the Cowboys Packers tie.

00:12:04
Speaker 8: Excuse men.

00:12:05
Speaker 13: I wish I could take credit, but I think maybe Seaton came up with it. I love the field goal thirty yards out. Put both kickers out there, and then maybe you move back five yards, move back.

00:12:15
Speaker 14: Five yards first to miss loses.

00:12:19
Speaker 13: I get my kids at school the next morning, I got work the next morning.

00:12:22
Speaker 7: I can't stay up.

00:12:23
Speaker 13: Till midnight for a tie.

00:12:25
Speaker 3: It's no good.

00:12:25
Speaker 13: But thanks again for taking my call.

00:12:27
Speaker 7: Go Bills.

00:12:27
Speaker 2: All right, thank you, Kevin. I think you should start the field goal the kick off, maybe on the fifty yard line, and then you could go incrementally five yards and then five yards, and then you get to sixty and then you don't get to tie. How many ties do we have a year in the regular season.

00:12:48
Speaker 6: In the past eight years, we've had eight ties. Okay, I'm going to do the average of one per season.

00:12:54
Speaker 2: Okay, eight years, eight thank you, Paul, I.

00:12:57
Speaker 6: Did it myself.

00:12:58
Speaker 2: You did it.

00:12:59
Speaker 6: What But it's it's it's often enough that it's still a bummer because it feels like the game was all or not.

00:13:09
Speaker 2: But you're going to get teams coaches who say, you know, should it come down to something as gimmicky as that? Right, players are probably going to say, hey, let's just start at the twenty five yard line. You see if you can score and uh, if you do, then we can match you. If you kick a field goal, we score a touchdown, then we win. Or you kick a field goal, we kick a field goal, then we do it again. Now the NFL is trying to maybe get rid of is more plays. Yeah, you know that's probably it's like the two point conversion. Yeah. I remember somebody from the league office saying, we just don't want more collisions. They don't want to be adding. We're trying to subtract and better protect.

00:13:53
Speaker 6: Yes, I don't know if you remember this classic mcglove n quote. We were discussing ties like a decade ago, because you know, all these tie games, they're always great games. He actually said that, of course they're great games.

00:14:03
Speaker 2: The nights all end Rick in Arizona. Hi, Rick, what's on your mind?

00:14:09
Speaker 7: Hey?

00:14:09
Speaker 15: Good morning, Dan, Thanks taking my call.

00:14:12
Speaker 7: Five ten two ten.

00:14:16
Speaker 15: Hey, I got a best and a worst of the weekend, But first I just wanted to thank you for displaying that Riverside Police Department patch on your desk there. My wife and I were both cops there for thirty years, so we really appreciate it.

00:14:28
Speaker 2: Oh good, Yes, I get patches fire departments, EMT's police and tried to display. I probably got one hundred and fifty of those right now. Glad to do that. We really appreciate it.

00:14:44
Speaker 7: Hey.

00:14:44
Speaker 15: My best of the weekend my Rams beating the Colts to go three and one, and right now, I don't think there's anybody better than Matthew Stafford for a late game comeback. And my worst are the my La Angels another ninety game losing season of lost ninety nine last year.

00:15:02
Speaker 8: I really feel for Mike Trout.

00:15:04
Speaker 15: You know, I was glad he gave us that long term hometown discount when he signed, but I'd really love to see him playing for a winning team.

00:15:12
Speaker 8: I think it's just a waste.

00:15:14
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford's touchdown pass to two to two act Well was eighty eight yards, and that is the longest game winning scrimmage touchdown in the final two minutes of regulation since nineteen sixty eighty eight yards. Stat of the Day, stat of the Day, Bus stat of the Day, stat.

00:15:36

00:17:34
Speaker 9: Oh damn, give us stat of.

00:17:37
Speaker 2: This stat of the day brought you by Panini America. Josh in Lake Tahoe. Hi, Josh, welcome to the program.

00:17:46
Speaker 3: I thanks Van Hi Hi six foot tall to twenty six first time, long time, Thanks for taking my call. Yeah, hey, I love your show. I just wanted to heads up. I know you're a big Jerry West fan. And there is an auction tomorrow for a Jerry West uniform by Subby's and it's a full uniform, top, short, the whole deal and starting its four hundred thousand dollars.

00:18:14
Speaker 2: I thought you might inter I love Jerry, not four hundred thousand dollars worth, but whoever gets that good. I remember when I saw the Lakers in person, this had to be nineteen seventy seventy one, and I remember those uniforms they came out. They're in Cincinnati to play the Royals, and I'm like, oh, look at those uniforms and Gary Jerry had the low cut Adidas so the stripes, the three stripes were that Laker gold. I'm like, I'm in love. I love the shoes, love those uniforms.

00:18:48
Speaker 6: Chance Pauling Dan, I'm on the Southeby's website right now, and if I send this to you.

00:18:52
Speaker 2: I think you may buy it.

00:18:53
Speaker 6: It is scaldingly gorgeous. It's the dark royal blue Lakers days with the white and light blue forty four in the Los Angeles and script and Lakers down the sides, plus socks, oh, plus warm up jacket that game used by Jerry West. I think this is a good investment. Yes, also hot take. The Lakers should have never changed from that color scheme.

00:19:18
Speaker 7: Old please.

00:19:19
Speaker 2: So that was the Minneapolis Colors, right.

00:19:22
Speaker 10: This is early Los ANGELESO. So Minneapolis going to Los Angeles, but they kept the royal blue in the light blue with the shadow forty four with the Los Angeles across the top.

00:19:35
Speaker 7: Yeah.

00:19:36
Speaker 6: I see what Marvi is saying. It was gorgeous, But the purple and gold is gutsy changing the purple and gold. But the Lakers were so good when they went to purple and gold. It made them brand and gorgeous.

00:19:47
Speaker 2: Jake and Philly Hi, Jake.

00:19:49
Speaker 18: Pay first time, long time five eight and a bulking one seventy. Okay, I have the best of worst of the weekend for you. I'll start with the worst. I am a disheartened graduate of the Pennsylvania State University and I just think it is statistically fascinating how this team is always exactly this level of good where they're always a very good team and they beat everybody except in the big game, and you're always good enough to be just one call, one playaway from winning and it never happened. I mean, what are the odds that it never ever goes our way? And I actually like James Franklin. I think he's a very good coach. But of course, when you go three quarters without seeing the red zone at home off of By in the white out, it's pretty tough to find a silver lining. And my pro team, Dan, this is the best of the weekend. And a question for you is the four and zero reigning Super Bowl champion EA G l Es Eagles And they had on the broadcast Dean Blandino, whom you also had on and he was talking about the tush push even though Eagles weren't running it. And my question for you, because you know, they mentioned that it's very tough to officiate, and that's what you talk to him about. But my question would be, even if you get rid of that extra tush pusher, does that make it suddenly way more easier to officiate? I feel like even if you take the extra tush pusher out, you're still going to have a scrum. You're still going to have offensive linemen jumping, You're still gonna have defensive linemen in the neutrals one, and the.

00:21:24
Speaker 8: Eagles are still going to.

00:21:26
Speaker 18: Be better at it than everybody else in the league. And so my question would be does that really help anything out because I'm not quite sure what removing the tush push would actually solve for the league.

00:21:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've said that Philadelphia is still going to be successful and they were with just quarterback sneaks because of Jalen Jalen hurts, you know, is the difference. But if I take two bodies out of the equation from behind him, maybe there's less clutter there. It would help if they called, you know, when the offensive line jumps or the defensive line is in the neutral zone. I get those things right. You can do that the play. It's really difficult to officiate where you're going to spot, you know, where the ball carrier is. Ohio State went to Washington and they made it look a whole lot easier than they thought they would. Old Miss over lsu Pama at Georgia with the win, Florida State loses to Virginia, Notre Dame of the big win against Arkansas A and m over Auburn and Indiana over Iowa make way for Rick Neuheisel, CBS Sports former college football coach. With all of that being said, the most important win of the weekend was turned in.

00:22:36
Speaker 19: By Alabama, A fantastic win for Kaitlin de Boor the Alabama faithful now have renewed hope and renewed faith in what Caitlin's getting done there. And also for Ty Simpson, who gets now the kind of spotlight that he deserves because I don't think he was even bad in the Florida State game. I thought he actually played pretty darn well. He's a big time player, and I think the Alabama win was sensational.

00:23:10
Speaker 2: Ohio State going to Washington, I thought it was going to be more of a game. I really thought Washington would put up a better test. But does it say more about Ohio State or Washington, Well.

00:23:24
Speaker 7: It says a lot about Matt Patricia. First.

00:23:27
Speaker 19: First of all, we've known that Ryan Day has this chameleon ability to see what the opponent can do and then adjust a game plan without thinking about his offensive numbers. When you have a guy like Jeremiah Smith, you've got to get him the ball. But he doesn't worry about getting Jeremiah Smith the ball. He worries about making the game go in the direction that he wants to with his best chance to win. And he just basically suffocated Demon Williams. They had played this cage technique, wouldn't let him get out at halftime. He had zero yards rushing and that takes a huge piece of Jetfish's offense away from him. So I think Matt Patricia has adapted to college football beautifully. I know it is a big story when Jim Knowles left, but Patricia is really doing a great job at Ohio State.

00:24:15
Speaker 2: Is there a great team in college football?

00:24:18
Speaker 19: I don't know. I don't think so now. Maybe one will evolve, but right now, no one's dominant, which makes the postseason as we look ahead, seem so juicy. It is going to have so many plot twists as we get closer and closer to it.

00:24:34
Speaker 7: Which I think we're all here for.

00:24:37
Speaker 2: Is being good good enough at Penn State?

00:24:42
Speaker 19: Well it obviously it is right He's been there for this double digit years and he's four and twenty one against top ten teams.

00:24:52
Speaker 7: But they still are there.

00:24:54
Speaker 19: And I think the fact that they came back in that game down seventeen to three and got it into overtime and and look good in overtime other than the errant pass that gets picked. I think as long as they get to ten and two, they're going to be a college football playoff team. And then it's again seating. But there's going to be always this shadow and this cloud hanging over both the quarterback and the head coach until they fix it.

00:25:24
Speaker 2: But if let's look at this hypothetically, if you had that record at Michigan, you're not keeping your job. If you had that record at Ohio State, you're not keeping your job. Alabama Georgia. Fair right, Yeah, that's fair. I just think they see and especially with the guys that leave Penn State and go off to the next level, how many quality players. I just think that they see enough good that what are we going to do? That's different if we go away from it, and they they give the home crowd at least enough hope in these games they're not trounced so that they keep coming back and they keep coming back wearing the same outfit. It's incredible they keep wearing that white. Rick new Heisl CBS Sports college football analyst and former head coach, do you have a quarterback crush?

00:26:20
Speaker 19: I love this angelic assassin Julian saying, you know, he looks like he hasn't shaved yet, but the guy is a phenomenal talent. And I really love Demon Williams, the kid that was on the other side. I mean, you talk about a guy who can throw it and then get his legs involved. Jed's gonna have to find some more formations and ways to get his legs involved because taking them away is a bad equation for the dogs. They got a tough game this week against Maryland.

00:26:50
Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoza love him.

00:26:53
Speaker 7: I love him.

00:26:53
Speaker 19: Okay, I feel like I want to put on my ABBA's Greatest Hits album. You know, Fernando Fernando. It's a catchy tune. Now, Dan, you'll find yourself humming along.

00:27:05
Speaker 2: H Lane Kiffin, is this a different year for him? And if so, well, what good for Lane?

00:27:13
Speaker 7: Listen?

00:27:13
Speaker 19: This Trinidad Chambliss is a great story too. A year ago he was playing for Farris State in D two and now he's he's the toast of Hotty Toddy Town and it's it's a wonderful story. I mean, Glaine's even got his daughter out there doing reconnaissance. So this is a this is a team effort for the Kiffins.

00:27:33
Speaker 2: I don't know if it sounds like you're all in on ole miss.

00:27:37
Speaker 19: I was worried about the fact that they gave up so many yards rushing. They were, you know, came into this game against LSU giving up one hundred and ninety yards a game on the ground without necessarily a formidable schedule. We'll wait and see, but that was a yeoman effort. And now the hot seats Brian Kelly because those those folks in the Bay you don't like not having This was supposed to be a really good offense right with nuss Meyer and coming back, and it just isn't. The defense has been fixed, but the offense now is not coming along for the ride.

00:28:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels like and maybe this is the Kaelin de Boor feel that he'll be going through that with Brian. Brian's not one of them, even though he has a great resume. It just feels like it's not weak to week as it is with you know Alabama, but I don't know. It just feels odd with Brian Kelly and Vaton Rouge.

00:28:31
Speaker 19: And he's he's, you know, he's got little Lord Fauntleroy type kind of personality. He's you know, he's the the all knowing and it's just not it's fine with the results, but when the results aren't there, they're going to start picking at one that's not one of them.

00:28:50
Speaker 2: As they say, I'm curious what you think of Diego Pavilla at Vandy because I've watched him now and he minds me of Baker Mayfield, like he's just got he.

00:29:01
Speaker 7: Plays with that. Have you met him? Have you met him down?

00:29:03
Speaker 2: I've had him on the show.

00:29:05
Speaker 19: He is so charming, he is he is a absolute I mean, you just want to put your arms around him. He's a little guy, he's not not a big guy, and yet you can't help but love him. And Clark Lee saw this goes back to when he was with Jerry Kill at New Mexico State. They went into Auburn and beat Auburn thirty one to ten and beat him like soundly right. It was not an accident, wasn't a bunch of turnovers, just soundly. So Clark Lee, who's losing his team to the transfer portal, looks around and says, I got to get I got to have New Mexico State come here and basically brought them all. Jerry Kill, the quarterback, the offensive coordinator, the wide receiver coach, the quarterback coach, all come to Vanderbilt. He gives the offense to them, and they have been brilliant. They're averaging forty nine points a game. This game in Tuscaloosa is one of the big games of the weekend.

00:30:01
Speaker 7: I can't wait to watch.

00:30:02
Speaker 2: It usc Lincoln Riley complained about the start time for this. You sign up for the Big Ten, you're probably going to play some of these games, right, And they played pretty well, But I don't think you can go into a game and already have an excuse why you might not play well.

00:30:22
Speaker 19: It doesn't do well to talk about it publicly. I think that there should be a little bit more protection for West Coast teams that are traveling. And maybe you say it can only happen once a year, but the bottom line is you're right.

00:30:37
Speaker 7: It only looks like you're.

00:30:39
Speaker 19: Whining, and that's not a good look for Lincoln, whose team was off to a good start and just a couple of ill advised turnovers in this game were the difference. But it was a great job, a great job, but bielama to get his team off the mat after being bludgeoned by Indiana the week previous.

00:30:57
Speaker 2: Good to talk to you.

00:30:58
Speaker 7: Thanks you always a treat, my friend. You have a great week. Six.

00:31:02
Speaker 2: Rick new Heisl former coach now working for CBS Sports. This just in theleak. Neighbors is out for the rest of the season. Tornaco and Schefter reporting that, Yeah, I wondered about that. And there's been a lot of dialogue about that playing field at MetLife, and there's certain well it used to be back in the eighties and the nineties, there were certain playing surfaces that had a reputation. I remember I remember being in Philadelphia and it felt like concrete and it might have been concrete with just a thin layer of aster turf, and I just thought, I can't imagine, you know, somebody tackling you or falling down on your head. No wonder you get these concussions when you're head Sometimes you'll see somebody's head, you know, kind of bounce off the aster turf and they're like, man, you got a concussion on that. It's like, yeah, if you feel that, man, But that's a shame, especially you know, Jackson Darry. You gotta have elite neighbors out there.

00:32:08
Speaker 8: Yeah.

00:32:08
Speaker 6: Pauli Odell Beckham tweeted about this as well, saying everyone should go to grass fields. The players want grass fields. I think it's fifty to fifty grass fields and artificial turf. But I don't think it's artificial turf or grass. I think it's how your field is taken care of. The Chicago Bears have grass and it's horrendous. It's terrible. It's it's just as dangerous as the commanders.

00:32:30
Speaker 2: That playing surface, Yes, terrible.

00:32:32
Speaker 6: It's it's the condition and the care, not the I don't think the surface.

00:32:36
Speaker 2: Man, you know you get these non contact injuries. Yeah, what a bummer. The colonel in Tampa, welcome back.

00:32:47
Speaker 14: Thank you, Daniel. I was remiss last time. Six four pounds, worst worst of worst of was the Ryder Cup. That's not golf, that's not that's not happy Gilmore two or three golf. My best of it was a hot day on the ball.

00:33:08
Speaker 2: Me Bermuda.

00:33:09
Speaker 14: Dan Eagle sees the initiative created irreversible momentum, but we almost got it back. Dan got to work on the special teams with a great field goal. But I was really really happy and watching the bucks is always going to be my best of Lastly, Dan, del Maybury is three lanes. Del Maybury Highway is three lanes. Please do not disrupt practice this week. So much confusion on del Maybury this week. We can't have that.

00:33:37
Speaker 2: Thanks a lot, Dan, all right, thank you, colonel. This is what the Ryder Cup has become. But this is what has been promoted. It's going to be crazy. Well, if you're telling people it's going to be crazy, then how crazy is crazy?

00:33:56
Speaker 7: You know?

00:33:57
Speaker 2: When I talked to Brandall Chamblee on third day of last week, I said, you know, can you go too far? And he said yes, And we saw that that crowd went too far.

00:34:09
Speaker 10: Yes, Mar Even Colin more Kawar earlier this week said he wanted chaos. I was like, for what, it's golf.

00:34:16
Speaker 2: I just want you to be excited and into it. The problem was the European team took the crowd out of it for two days. They were desperate to yell something, and then the crowd got angry. Yes, well, I think I think.

00:34:31
Speaker 5: It was Rory who, after some point this weekend, was in a press conference and he said that he didn't understand when rooting for your team turned into like denigrating the other team more than you cheer for your own players. And so I think his example was if you listen to the anyone like the European fans, they're cheering for Europe, they're not dragging the United States, and the United States fans had it the exact opposite, where all they did was talk trash to Europe rather than cheer on their own.

00:34:59
Speaker 2: Guy Jalen Rose hit a shot from the side of the grand stand, and uh so, when what did I say, Jalen Rose? Justin Rose did it, and he hit a shot that was unbelievable, And as soon as he hits it, you hear some knucklehead go get in the bunker, and you're like, and it was an unbelievable shot. And he made the putt as well, and they're like, celebrate when you guys do well. But I don't think it's a somebody hits the ball and you go get in the water getting the bunker, and it feels that way and once again, it's not an indictment on everybody, but there was enough where it's not just a couple of people. And it feels like that we've encouraged this kind of behavior, this kind of atmosphere, and when they're yelling stuff at Rory, they somebody threw a beer at his wife. I mean, we're better than that, aren't we. We'll take a break. Last call for phone calls? What we learn? What's in store tomorrow?

Speaker 2: What we learn? What's in store tomorrow? I have the current worst odds to win the Super Bowl. Which team has the worst odds to win the Super Bowl? Marvin, New Orleans Saints. They are tied. It's a two way tie.

00:36:36
Speaker 4: Yes, tod I'm gonna go Tennessee Titan Yay.

00:36:40
Speaker 2: Yes, it's one hundred thousand to one. I think so you're saying there's a chance good payout. Then after that the Panthers plus seventy thousand, Oh, then there's a one, two, three, four, five way tie after that, Browns, Raiders, Dolphins, Jets, Giants at plus forty thousand. But it's the Saints and the Titans. I tried to watch the Titans. I tried. I gave up, just like the Titans did. That's bad. That's a coach that not every coordinator should be a head coach. And I'm watching cam Ward. Cam Ward, these guys come in and they're not used to having failure. They're not used to losing, you know, more games than they did in a single season when they're in college. And you could see the frustration. But that's a bad football team. And was the Panthers Patriots line? Was that a pick them?

00:37:53
Speaker 7: Am?

00:37:54
Speaker 2: I did? I misread that because I kept thinking, wait a minute, the Patriots are at home, and the Patriots I think are a good team. But for some reason I thought that this was like a one one point the two point point.

00:38:11
Speaker 6: Spread, yampol, I'm seeing five and a half points in two different places.

00:38:14
Speaker 2: Oh okay, because I thought somebody said, you know, this is a pick them, I'm thinking it's not a pick them. This is Patriots and they ended up playing better than I thought they would. Let's see, Okay, two games, one headline right, one headline, two games, one headline. Yes, you get one headline from you can pick whatever game. You got two games, but you get one headline to right, Paul, Why don't you set the example?
