He may stay in 41 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:43.479 his stand Bull with OLOG thirty eight to three year Final yesterday at AT and 42 00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:49.000 T Stadium, the biggest loss in Bill Belichick's career. Couldn't believe that, 43 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.319 you know, in couch for a long time, you think it would have 44 00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:59.680 run into one forty point loss. Yeah, you would think Belichick raves. 45 00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.800 It's hilarious that that was a little footnote at the end of that game that 46 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:08.639 I was kind of like, really, do you think that if you've been 47 00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.520 in the game that long, you're bound to get routed at some point. 48 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.519 I'm sure he suffered some routings up there in that that New England, but 49 00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:21.199 not not to this level. We learned. That's bad. And part of 50 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:25.519 it's the quarterback. You know, Kirk Cousins is not good. Part of 51 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:28.720 it's the Cowboys being a good team. Like I don't think Kirk Cousins isn't 52 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:31.079 good, but Mac Jones Jones, Sorry, I said Kirk Cousins, Mac 53 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:35.639 Jones. I don't know why I had Kirk Cousins on my mind, Mac 54 00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:41.639 Jones, but we all knew that. So it's like this game was weird. 55 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.759 It was a six and a half point line. I never once for 56 00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.639 a minute thought New England would have a chance to cover because I saw they 57 00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:50.480 played the Jets. But then the Jets last night were competitive with the Chiefs. 58 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:56.600 So football's dumb and none of us know anything. That's how you look 59 00:04:56.600 --> 00:04:59.680 at it, at least this early in the season. I mean, the 60 00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:01.959 way the how I was pitt against the Cardinals last week was such garbage. 61 00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:05.680 And then you know, the Cardinals played the forty nine ers fairly tough at 62 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:10.000 a couple times yesterday, so maybe you think higher of them. I really 63 00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:14.680 don't know. I know, I walked away from yesterday's game going I don't 64 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:18.839 know any more about this team than I did going into the game, except 65 00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:27.120 for a couple of things. One are kickers solid a thirteen for thirteen kickers 66 00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:30.040 on fire. Yep, So cool, that's worked out, which is great 67 00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:34.160 for you know, a team that struggles the closer they get to the goal 68 00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:40.439 line. It's nice to have a dude that is going to be automatic from 69 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:45.240 you know, thirty to forty five yards. You would think, okay, 70 00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:47.639 first drive of the game. Glad you said that, first drive of the 71 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:51.920 game. Wrote my notes on a note card. Use a notepad. I 72 00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:57.839 did a note card yesterday, except I was struggling the first drive. They 73 00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:04.079 throw it to Scoop Maker in the end zone and he continues the trends of 74 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:10.560 our tight ends dropping passes. But man and as Schoomakers a pick I did 75 00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:13.240 not like. I thought they should have drafted an offensive lineman. The second 76 00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:17.360 round. There's a guy I wanted. They didn't get him whatever as another 77 00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:21.279 tight end. We got Ferguson, We got a hinder shot. Yeah, 78 00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:26.800 we got these guys who are not like game changing tight ends. Bubb me. 79 00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:29.480 Damn that schoonmaker. I was like, Okay, he will look pretty 80 00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:32.920 fast, and he dropped it and they end up settling for the field goal. 81 00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:36.639 Where did they draft him? What round? Second round? They didn't 82 00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:41.839 need to do that. Man, put your eggs in the Ferguson basket. 83 00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:46.279 I'm telling you that I'm him, absolutely love him. Get those guys practicing 84 00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:53.319 on catching footballs better. That's a pretty damn good core with I think Ferguson 85 00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:56.079 leading it, and I think he is going to emerge. Man. I 86 00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:59.360 love everything that I've seen out of that guy, other than the fact that 87 00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:02.279 he has at little bit of difficulty. You know, it's early, he'll 88 00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:06.279 get there, I think, but I think he's I think he's really solid 89 00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:12.839 and I liked I always thought he was more athletic than Dalton Schultz agreed, 90 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:15.439 and I think everyone was like find with Dalton Schultzon was definitely more physical. 91 00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:23.079 Yeah, but what Wisconsin, dude, though, Wisconsin guy will out physical 92 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:28.800 Stanford guy anytime. This it's Christian McCaffrey because he's just sick. Oh. 93 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:33.519 But one thing that so that touchdown, I was sorry to touchdown. Passes 94 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:38.319 dropped. The next play or one of the plays after that. On that 95 00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:42.199 first drive was the third down and it was supposed to be a handoff to 96 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:46.839 Tony Pollard and then either Dak turned the wrong way or Tony Pollard went the 97 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:49.480 wrong way and I kind of bump into each other. Well, there was 98 00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:55.800 some pre plays over. Yeah, there was a little bit of pre snap 99 00:07:55.879 --> 00:08:01.000 panic. Yeah, because Dak called off the pass. He audible out of 100 00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:03.720 that out of the pass play, and I just don't know if his signal 101 00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:11.519 was clear or Pollard was confused. But there was something something afoot that they 102 00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:16.920 were They didn't have it solid in their brains on what to do on that 103 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.600 play. And that was third and one correct and then second stop they have 104 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.959 to sell for the field goal. But whatever. But as you're going, 105 00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.879 here we go again, Yeah, still bad in the red zone. Patriots 106 00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:33.759 come back down and they drive down the field and the Cowboys end up getting 107 00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:37.279 to stop or whatever. But like Patriots are like, okay, this is 108 00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:39.679 gonna be a game here. They kicked the field goal, it's three three, 109 00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:43.240 and okay, this could be something. Patriots were kind of slicing them 110 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:46.519 up pretty good on that. On their opening drive, Yeah, fourteen plays 111 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:54.279 and then they had they had a play for forty two yards. But I 112 00:08:54.279 --> 00:09:01.320 mean after that, that's about all that. And I don't know, man, 113 00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:03.480 the Cowboys next drive, the CD Lamb touchdown, like that was beautiful. 114 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:07.519 That was greatly That was on the twenty. So if it's funny that 115 00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:11.679 that does not get counted as a red zone TD because it was literally on 116 00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:16.320 the twenty. I didn't realize you had to be basically it's it's nineteen or 117 00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:22.080 lower to count as red zone. Yeah, you absolutely should count that as 118 00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:26.000 a red zone touchdown now. I also think when that drive happened, I 119 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:28.559 was like, whatever, the offense looks good, who cares? But then 120 00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:33.559 the game went on ended up going Okay, we're doing a lot of like 121 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:41.639 we can sustain drives, we can hang out with anyone, but when does 122 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.240 this get fixed? Now it's weird to complain at thirty eight to three, 123 00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:48.000 and I don't know if I'm calling it complaining, but I don't feel better 124 00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:52.679 about my red zone offense and I don't know, man, you don't it's 125 00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:56.759 weird. You don't play a real team until next week where he gets forty 126 00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:00.399 nine ers. Is it true? And they brought this stat up early in 127 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.159 the game talking about the Cowboys red zone woes and maybe is it just because 128 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:11.720 it's it's so glaring that there percentage of red zone touchdown conversion is low, 129 00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:18.240 but the amount of times that they've gotten down there is just astronomically far more 130 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.240 than any other team in the NFL. Yeah, that's they converted on a 131 00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:28.679 league average red zone touchdowns compared to the number of times that they've been in 132 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:31.960 the red zone on drives, that this team would be winning every game seventy 133 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:37.360 to twenty. Basically. I like that, Like I'm I, I do 134 00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:43.440 agree with that. And and here's here's my problem. You just sounded like 135 00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:46.960 a goat. I did, Cass, I could go that was weird. 136 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.720 My problem with what you said is it's right, but I also feel like 137 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:58.519 it would be better still with Kevin. And I know that everything shouldn't go 138 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:03.519 back to who's calling your plays, but it kind of does. And I 139 00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:05.679 think that's gonna be the downfall of this team. I think that's why they're 140 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.200 ultimately not gonna get to where they're supposed to go. I think it's gonna 141 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.559 be because I don't think they're play caller, and I'm not doing the guy 142 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:18.200 that go question the guy who calls plays and look at it. I just 143 00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:20.159 worry that he hadn't done it in six years. Well, people are just 144 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:24.440 fast. Yeah, it does. But people are also gonna say that you've 145 00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.559 got him slotted just because your history with him as a head coach of the 146 00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:31.799 Packers that you probably feel like they should have had more super Bowl wins, 147 00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.240 more and more championships than they did. You know, they only had one 148 00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:41.440 with him and a Rod, So maybe they're in sour grapes. That's what 149 00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:46.080 people are gonna People are gonna say it. Maybe it's true, maybe it's 150 00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.960 not. Probably is no, And I'm not. I for everything that I 151 00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:52.600 have a complaint about McCarthy, I usually have a lot of good things to 152 00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:58.200 say about him too. I try to be then I'm not. Then you're 153 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.559 all you're doing the play both sides thing. So she says, you still 154 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:05.080 don't like look like the complete a hole. No, I'm just telling you, 155 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.720 like McCarthy as it called play plays in six years or five years, 156 00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:11.720 whatever it is. The NFL network puff piece to get him a job was 157 00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:16.919 bs and that's all a whole other thing. There are good things about him 158 00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:22.480 building an organization, building a program, consistently making the playoffs. You're in 159 00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:26.159 year out building something. Love that. Let's get someone calling plays. We 160 00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:30.559 had a good play caller here. Now everyone liked a bitch about Kellen. 161 00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:35.240 Despite being a top five team in points and red zone efficiency and all that 162 00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.759 stuff. People like to bitch at Kellen when you're losing the playoffs. I 163 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:43.840 don't get that. But whatever people want a bitch about is fine. I 164 00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:48.399 might get serned about Mike McCarthy's and I still haven't seen it this year. 165 00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:54.320 Where are the guys running free, just wide open all day? You saw 166 00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:58.519 that with Kellen. Kellen seemed to be a play caller that would take more, 167 00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:05.200 more chances. It may have looked more. What people would say is 168 00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:09.360 creative. You know you hear that term thrown aloud. He's a very creative 169 00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:15.759 offensive coordinator. He's a creative play caller, which I think just means something 170 00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:20.840 that's not boring. And what Mike McCarthy's formula is on offense appears to be 171 00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:31.120 kind of systematic, kind of boring about risk management, minimizing the chances that 172 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:35.600 will get you in trouble. And I think if you're playing a team that 173 00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:43.840 you are clearly better than and can establish a lead early, I think it's 174 00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:46.360 very easy to implement the McCarthy formula. Yes, and we've seen it happen 175 00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:52.559 three out of four times this year. They have absolutely looked dominant over the 176 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:56.639 teams that they have their three victories against. You know, you can look 177 00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:03.759 back at last week and that could just be attributed to personnel, because I 178 00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:09.240 don't care what team you are, if you are missing three out of your 179 00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:13.440 five offensive lineman, you're going to have a rough time. That was their 180 00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:18.600 first game without Diggs, and I'm sure there was an adjustment and an adjustment 181 00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:24.559 time frame that they needed that they probably didn't have enough time, I guess, 182 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:28.879 to kind of understand what their defense was gonna look like without Diggs. 183 00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:33.919 Now they've had a game and then a full week in the defense looked phenomenal 184 00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:41.720 yesterday. Granted New England sucks. Mac Jones is a garbage pail of a 185 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:46.480 quarterback. Yes, he's horrible. That guy is not their future. It 186 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:48.360 was funny that they were comment He's like, well, you you kind of 187 00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:52.519 wonder if mac Jones is the quarterback of the Patriots for the next fifteen years. 188 00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:56.919 I don't know if he's gonna even start next week. That guy sucks 189 00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:00.799 so bad. I think Belichick's had after the game. There wasn't any point 190 00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:05.200 in keeping him in the game anymore. You could have said the same thing 191 00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:11.000 about our quarterback for different reasons. Can we get Dak and Mike got out 192 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:15.360 of the game? Why what are we doing? I don't understand it, 193 00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.879 and I'm tired of hearing you. No, you just can't ask Mikey to 194 00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:20.960 come out. No you can you just take it out and you just say 195 00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:24.960 no, you're not like you're just not, especially when he's been hobbling around 196 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:28.799 all day. Anyway, that came out of the game two times due to 197 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:31.639 injury, dude, and worked himself back in. Put him back in the 198 00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:37.200 game. Then I understand maybe leaving Dak in because on offense, you can 199 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:41.519 kind of control what he's going to do. You can. It can be 200 00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:45.320 a lot of handoffs, it can be a lot of three step drop quick 201 00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:48.279 pass kind of things, things where Dak knows to protect himself and to not 202 00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:54.120 get himself injured. But on defense, that's such a man. Anything can 203 00:15:54.159 --> 00:16:00.399 happen at any time, and you're you're more reacting to stuff on defense and 204 00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:04.559 you don't have much control over what's gonna happen to you. I don't understand 205 00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:07.840 why number eleven was in that game at all. In the fourth quarter. 206 00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:12.080 All I was sitting on it is literally thirty one to three right now, 207 00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:15.679 and he's rushing the bassard this it makes no sense. Well, the guy 208 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.120 only knows one speed man and you can't you know, you can't coach that 209 00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:22.279 out of him. Well you can take his ass out of the game. 210 00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:25.600 And you say, no, you're not You're not playing now, duds, 211 00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:29.279 And you know it's fine. Let's go get some ideas going for your podcast 212 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:33.799 tomorrow, Like we're gonna take something you don't have to like. I get 213 00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:37.080 it. He probably just wants to rack up these sacks stats and all that 214 00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.200 stuff. I want to ask you something real quick. Something I thought about 215 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:45.120 this morning when I woke up, and I've seen a couple of people on 216 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:48.000 Twitter posts this. It's like, you know, we're going into Week five 217 00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:52.279 against San Francisco and I don't really I don't really know anything about what this 218 00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:56.600 offense is capable of. I really don't have a good read on this team, 219 00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:02.639 just because when they've been good, the defense, the defensive performances have 220 00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:07.799 been so dominating, the takeaways have been great, the scoring from the defense 221 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:10.680 has carried the team in two out of those three games that they've won. 222 00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:17.000 They don't really know what to think about this offense, and I I kind 223 00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:21.839 of in the same It's hard to argue that because we come in here on 224 00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:26.960 Mondays and talk about what we've seen, and the reason we do this, 225 00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:30.680 and the reason people you know, do this on Mondays is because you kind 226 00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:37.279 of want to manage how much headspace you want to give your team. Yeah, 227 00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:41.839 because in New England right now, you know what they're thinking about hockey 228 00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:45.799 season starting. The Red Sox missed the playoffs. They know that, they're 229 00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:51.839 that the Patriots are an absolute dumpster fire. But we're in hockey preseason. 230 00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:55.319 The Bruins are probably gonna be pretty good. I texted with my mom about 231 00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:57.480 this yesterday and she goes, yeah, Mac Jones sucks. It sucks. 232 00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:02.759 You know, the lifelong those of you don't know. I'm adopted, reunited 233 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:06.960 with my birth family a number of years back, and I'm very close with 234 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:10.400 them. But they're all up in that New England, Connecticut and western Massachusetts. 235 00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:15.000 And we were texting yesterday a little bit about the game, and she 236 00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:18.960 goes, I was talking about what you guys got, Zeke, And she 237 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:22.160 goes, yeah, we'll see what happens. Mac Jones is not a very 238 00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.799 nice person. I'm not confidence in his abilities nor his temper. Let's go 239 00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:32.240 Bruins. They're done ready for hockey. They're ready for hockey right now because 240 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:36.559 they know and they know how much, they know how much room to give 241 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:40.680 their thoughts to their team. What we do is we can look back at 242 00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:42.279 where we are right now through four weeks and go, you know what, 243 00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:47.920 Yeah, are they the best in the NFC right now? Probably not, 244 00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:52.440 but you know, depending on injuries, how healthy they can stay, the 245 00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:55.799 way they have looked when they're good, how great their defense is, we're 246 00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:59.319 in the mix. Well, it's okay for us to start thinking bigger picture, 247 00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:03.000 a great playoff run, perhaps a super Bowl. Yeah, you know, 248 00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:04.920 because the only thing, the only real competition in the NFC right now 249 00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:10.920 is San Francisco and the Eagles, who look better than the Cowboys. They 250 00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:14.559 just do. Maybe the Lions, maybe, but the Lions don't look better 251 00:19:14.599 --> 00:19:17.240 than the Cowboys. I don't think. I don't think. I think there's 252 00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:19.160 two teams in the in THEFC that look better and anything can happen from this 253 00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:22.000 point forward. You have every right to be excited about it. I think 254 00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.599 it's debatable that the Eagles have looked better than the Cowboys. Honestly, Yeah, 255 00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:27.200 you're right, But you know, I think a lot of people thought 256 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.400 they would be three and one or four now at this point. You obviously 257 00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:34.359 were expecting the Week two game against the Jets to be Aaron Rodgers. Ye, 258 00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:37.880 so that's a that's a part of it. But you know, I 259 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:41.240 want to be I wanna be like real clear. I am not bitching. 260 00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:45.480 I am very happy about that win yesterday, but we still kind of don't 261 00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:48.960 But they haven't played a good team. It's just so hard to tail tail 262 00:19:49.519 --> 00:19:53.559 it's so hard to tell. Question, Yes, please jump in. Do 263 00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:57.119 you believe and I think I believe this. Do you believe that they have 264 00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:02.079 not fully opened up the offensive play? Oh? I hope that's the case. 265 00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:04.559 But didn't like McCarthy make it like a statement, kind of like, 266 00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:07.200 oh, our offenses are going to be like a full four going to like 267 00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:15.279 five. That's just I've just historically never listened to anything Mike McCarthy says, 268 00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:19.039 because he's a liar. And if anyone, if you're a Cowboy fan, 269 00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:26.279 I'm just telling you, as someone who knows who's been too close to that 270 00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:32.559 man, he's a liar. Could changed. No, he didn't change during 271 00:20:32.599 --> 00:20:37.319 that absence of the NFL. He could have found himself. No, they 272 00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:41.240 tell you that he went to the barn and he watched all the plays and 273 00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:44.440 then the opening press conference. He lies and he says that he only said 274 00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:48.519 that stuff so Jerry would give him the job, and Steven Jones laughed central 275 00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.680 awkward look. Mike McCarthy's a fine coach. Mike McCarthy's the play caller. 276 00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:56.319 We're gonna find out a lot. And we needed to find out that clarity 277 00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.400 because we'd had enough time doing it with Kellen all right, so we needed 278 00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:03.640 to find out. But this idea that it's it's gonna open up, I 279 00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:07.200 certainly hope so, and I think it probably will. Also, you don't 280 00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:10.720 need to open it up when you're winning by thirty or forty, so we're 281 00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:12.440 good. So I mean, you make that's a great point. You don't 282 00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:17.119 need to open it up when you're getting touchdowns from your defense. Oh my 283 00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:22.839 god, the defense, Oh my god, two picks. He likes the 284 00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:25.839 party. Yep, he does like the party. I didn't realize that uh 285 00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:30.880 interception stat about him that he's leading the league in interception since last year. 286 00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:34.039 Yeah, last year. Yeah, I think he's up the eight total now 287 00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:40.359 that Dante Fouler play and then later vanderess scoops it up and beautiful, absolutely 288 00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:42.799 beautiful. That's something that we learned though that because if people were freaking out 289 00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:47.440 with digs out that Bland can handle himself on the outside, we knew he 290 00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:51.400 was good and slot it's just like, okay, now can you handle yourself. 291 00:21:51.839 --> 00:21:55.599 We're gonna learn so much from the forty nine ers. You actually have 292 00:21:55.640 --> 00:21:57.599 talent. Yeah, it's what we've been waiting for. But we've been crapping 293 00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:02.039 on the pages. But mac Jones dropped three hundred yards and then against the 294 00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:04.400 Eagles, Okay, against the Eagles, So we're talking like I'm not too 295 00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:07.720 sure how good we are and how good they're not good. I'm like Mac 296 00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:11.799 Jones. He played a good game against the Eagles when they played him. 297 00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:15.839 So the Eagles were farting around with Sam Howell yesterday. Yeah, who is 298 00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:19.160 the grandson of mister and missus Howell on Gilligan's Island, as you'll remember. 299 00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:26.160 Okay, his grandparents were on the island, and he uh made it out. 300 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.079 You're ridiculous. You know that. I'm aware of that. Coming up 301 00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:33.160 next in the scuttle Better Daily News, saging once more cowboys stuff? Were 302 00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:36.920 you at eight? Let's talk about that defensive eight. We didn't talk about 303 00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:41.480 the vaunted defense, and I did not need to turn that into a McCarthy 304 00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:45.480 bitch session. I just don't trust him. I just don't trust him. 305 00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:48.839 Hey, this pop star, very famous hired a bunch of goons to kidnap 306 00:22:48.839 --> 00:22:52.480 her son. Who is it next? On ninety seven one, The Free
