Speaker 1: In the sports page with The Orlando Sentinel at FM
Speaker 1: ninety six to nine. The Games Mike the Bulldog BEYONDI
Speaker 1: on Jr. R.
Speaker 2: Bulldog Sports Page, brought you by Kaufman and Lynd injury attorneys. Boy,
Speaker 2: Eagles kind of let one slip through their fingertips literally
Speaker 2: last night.
Speaker 3: Dog, I'll say, and who says Kirk Cousins is over
Speaker 3: the hill? That's what they were talking about last week
Speaker 3: when the Falcons had that awful opener, Kirk Cousins coming
Speaker 3: off the torn Achilles ten and the guys over the hill. Well,
Speaker 3: he didn't look over the hill last night. He drove
Speaker 3: the Falcons down the field with just what was there
Speaker 3: like a minute thirty something left when they took over,
Speaker 3: takes him down the field, scores the game winning touchdown
Speaker 3: on a seven yard pass to Drake London, who's on
Speaker 3: my fantasy team, by the way, as the eat as
Speaker 3: the Falcons beat the Eagles twenty two to twenty one.
Speaker 3: As you mentioned, Yeah, the game did slip through the
Speaker 3: Eagles his hands. Sakwan Barkley. Wow, he dropped a short,
Speaker 3: easy pass near the goal line that would have earned
Speaker 3: the game ceiling first down instead on the drop pass
Speaker 3: the clock stop with the one forty six left that
Speaker 3: forced the Eagles to settle for a field goal that
Speaker 3: gave Cousins plenty of time to take his team down
Speaker 3: the field for the game winning touchdown.
Speaker 4: Dog, did you watch any of that game last night?
Speaker 4: Because I'm telling you the first half was just a
Speaker 4: snoozefest I had.
Speaker 2: I had to turn it off. It was boring.
Speaker 3: You want to know why I was watching that game
Speaker 3: last night. This is not going to interest lunch at all.
Speaker 2: Fam.
Speaker 3: I had Kyle Pitts on my fantasy team. All I
Speaker 3: needed him to do. All I needed him to do
Speaker 3: was score six points last night, and I win my
Speaker 3: game six points and.
Speaker 2: He did you know what?
Speaker 3: He got five five. He had his usual stat line
Speaker 3: of like two catches for seventeen yards. I don't even
Speaker 3: remember what stats were, but it wasn't enough for me
Speaker 3: to get the fan he went. Other NFL news. By
Speaker 3: the way, Bryce Young o boy number one overall draft
Speaker 3: pick twenty three two years ago. He's now been benched
Speaker 3: in favor of the red rifle Andy Dalton. I didn't
Speaker 3: even know Andy Dalton was still in the league, but yes,
Speaker 3: Andy Dalton is the new starting quarterback for the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 3: So the number one overall pick from two years ago
Speaker 3: is on the bench now. He's been absolutely abysmal. I
Speaker 3: think you could probably call him a bus now. I mean,
Speaker 3: you look at what he's done. He's two and sixteen
Speaker 3: as a starter. The Panthers gave up a lot of
Speaker 3: capital to move up in the draft to get him.
Speaker 3: I think they gave up four picks wide receiver DJ
Speaker 3: Moore and yeah, they move up to get him, and
Speaker 3: he's been absolutely abysins more.
Speaker 5: To be fair, they've got more issues than just the
Speaker 5: quarterback position. They say, no question, no question. It's sort
Speaker 5: of like Florida State. I'm up and up in Tallahassee.
Speaker 5: The fans and the media are saying you need to
Speaker 5: bench dj uyungala Le and then put in Brock Glenn
Speaker 5: the backup quarterback. You go look at Florida State. Their
Speaker 5: receivers are dropping passes at a rate almost as high
Speaker 5: as anybody in the country.
Speaker 3: They can't run the ball. They're last in the power
Speaker 3: for and running the ball. I think they're averaging like
Speaker 3: one point four yards per carry. Yeah, so you're right,
Speaker 3: there are extenuating circumstances, But I think they're gonna have
Speaker 3: to bench a dju just like the Panthers benched Bryce.
Speaker 4: Young And for FSU, uh, everybody's you know, so hard
Speaker 4: on that coach. Don't forget last year, before they lost
Speaker 4: a good amount of players, they were undefeated. So you
Speaker 4: might want back down a little bit. That's that's my opinion.
Speaker 4: I'm you know, I root for the Noles, but just
Speaker 4: here's the only issue I have with what FSU. Yeah,
Speaker 4: obviously Mike Norvell had a great season last year, but
Speaker 4: did FSU really have to give him an eight year extension?
Speaker 1: We want Alabama to take him bulldog eight year extension
Speaker 1: at almost eleven million dollars a year, And and again,
Speaker 1: I hope and I think FSU will get it turned
Speaker 1: around maybe next year.
Speaker 3: But if they don't. If they don't, you know what
Speaker 3: everybody's gonna be doing next year. If they have another
Speaker 3: bad year next year, he's on the hot seat. Got
Speaker 3: to get rid of him. That's that's what's gonna happen.
Speaker 3: And now it's gonna cost you. I think his buyout
Speaker 3: is sixty five million now, so.
Speaker 2: So let's so let me ask you this. Obviously, you
Speaker 2: just went through all the reasons. There's more reasons obviously
Speaker 2: than a coach. But uh, let's just say that extension
Speaker 2: wasn't in place and there wasn't this sixty five, I
Speaker 2: say it owned three. He's already gone. If they if
Speaker 2: that wasn't a factor right now, No, I don't think,
Speaker 2: Oh I do these fans are.
Speaker 3: Going thirteen and oh less.
Speaker 2: Look, he obviously didn't replace using the portal the key
Speaker 2: pieces with wise choices. That's my opinion, and I don't
Speaker 2: have a dog in this hunt.
Speaker 5: Got it?
Speaker 3: Okay? But you say these fans, I mean the fans
Speaker 3: were talking about on you know, the social media mob
Speaker 3: out there.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 3: I think there are a lot of logical thinking fans
Speaker 3: out there, or at least some. Yeah, so, you know,
Speaker 3: like Billy Napier, I do think he's gonna be gone.
Speaker 2: By the way.
Speaker 3: He was asked yesterday if he's been told anything about
Speaker 3: his future moving forward, and he insists he hasn't been
Speaker 3: told anything, and he does think there's a path for
Speaker 3: him to come back next year. I don't know if
Speaker 3: there is a path because, as you just mentioned, the fans,
Speaker 3: I think the fans have given up on this guy.
Speaker 3: So I don't know if his job can be saved.
Speaker 2: But I don't think.
Speaker 3: I don't think Mike Norvell would be fired even if
Speaker 3: he didn't have the buyout. I do. I don't understand, though,
Speaker 3: why these Why these colleges continue to sign their coaches
Speaker 3: to these.
Speaker 2: Long term deals.
Speaker 4: Why, same as the portal, they want to keep them
Speaker 4: like they want to keep their players. I'm glad I'm
Speaker 4: not coaching with this nil and portal stuff. They're pat
Speaker 4: You said it about FSU's coach. You're like, oh, he
Speaker 4: didn't do what he should have done with the portal.
Speaker 2: I would hate it.
Speaker 4: I'd be I'd have a belly ache every day.
Speaker 2: Could you imagine? Could you imagine if there was a
Speaker 2: coaching portal? Don't you wait?
Speaker 4: It's coming coming, boys, it should be Actually.
Speaker 2: It's coming. I did read something speaking of it. I'm
Speaker 2: going to give a Gator fan credit for this again,
Speaker 2: because I look, I root for the Canes, so obviously
Speaker 2: I'm feeling pretty good right now. But I'm not going
Speaker 2: to get cocky just yet because they haven't played anybody.
Speaker 2: A Gator fan suggested, Hey, why doesn't Florida approach this
Speaker 2: like an NFL style? And hire more or less a
Speaker 2: GM to make personnel decisions and free of the coach
Speaker 2: up to coach, you know, with because that that's the
Speaker 2: model that we have now, this in and out constant
Speaker 2: transfers and having to compensate players. There might be something
Speaker 2: to that.
Speaker 3: I think they should hire a GM to hire them,
Speaker 3: just like the NFL does. Let the GM hire the coach, right,
Speaker 3: Let the GM, you know, deal with the player personal yes, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: you know what the rumor is? What's that rumor is
Speaker 3: that the Gators may bring back urban Meyer as the GM,
Speaker 3: as you just mentioned as the GM, and then urban
Speaker 3: Meyer will make a play to go get Ryan Day
Speaker 3: from Ohio State as.
Speaker 2: Prove nothing would surprise, nothing would prize these days, right guys.
Speaker 3: And they could have him counseling anyways.
Speaker 4: They could have him counseling the kids like he's was
Speaker 4: doing at that other school for a week or two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right. Mike the Bulldog Byankey, host of
