6:39

mentions of the week. I right now from user, uh, epitome

6:41

of ADHD, which I'm sure we can all

6:44

relate to at some point in our lives.

6:46

Hey, on the new heights, Reddit

6:48

page, a friend of mine went

6:50

to heights. Hi. Yeah. Hi. Hi.

6:55

Cool fucking tigers. Dogger baby

6:57

has Jason's flip folder from

6:59

marching band. No way. Dude,

7:07

what you, uh, you played saxophone on the

7:09

marching band. You also, you

7:11

played a bunch of different instruments though. Like you

7:13

could play multi you, you taught yourself, you were

7:15

taught the saxophone. And then once you learned how

7:18

to read music, you kind of taught yourself how

7:20

to play other instruments. I played a few other

7:22

instruments. I played mostly I played saxophone. Berry sax

7:24

was when I played first of all, let's get back to

7:26

this. I don't mean to be rude. I was

7:29

not in marching band. So I don't know where

7:31

this no folder. You

7:33

were in marching band. You used to get

7:35

like 50 tackles and then that half time

7:37

you go out there with your fucking saxophone.

7:39

Don't act like you're a dual nerd. And

7:42

I would gladly, I would gladly,

7:44

I would gladly. You were the sway.

7:47

You were like sway. You were prom

7:49

king because everybody loves you. I

7:51

was not prom king either. You were in my heart.

7:53

I would gladly claim marching band if I

7:56

did it, but I did not do it.

7:58

So I don't, I'm a little curious where this is actually. from

8:01

if maybe Cleveland Heights is just printing

8:04

my name on things? I don't know. But. Dude,

8:06

no, that's, that's a classic. Like

8:08

you could tell that folder's been through the attic

8:10

somewhere. You know what I mean? Like that doesn't

8:12

look like it was just printed yesterday. Yeah. I

8:15

don't know. I know it's not

8:17

from marching band. I was in jazz ensemble.

8:19

Maybe one year you were like, I'll

8:21

do marching band, but like,

8:23

was there like a special event, like a pep

8:26

rally or a? No, we were. So a lot

8:28

of band instructors make the

8:30

football players play marching band, but shout

8:32

out to Mr. Baker who played football.

8:35

He firmly believed that football players should

8:37

be in the lock room at halftime,

8:39

going through halftime adjustments. So he never

8:42

forced football players to

8:44

do marching band, which

8:46

I always appreciated. Shout out to Mr. Baker. Not

8:48

right. Mr. Baker. But I did do symphonic band.

8:50

I did do jazz ensemble. I

8:53

played baritone sacks. That was

8:55

my main instrument, but I also learned bass

8:57

clarinet screwed around the trombone and the

8:59

jazz lab for us a little bit.

9:04

I, we already talked about the African drum incident

9:06

that I would play at lacrosse games. Dude, legendary.

9:09

I even, you know, I hate to admit this, but

9:11

I did play a little flute

9:14

on one of the jazz. What do you hate to, what do you

9:16

hate to admit that for? What do you think it's not?

9:18

It's not the manliest. It's not

9:21

a manly instrument. It's not. I wouldn't describe it

9:23

that way, but you know what? Just

9:25

cause it's high pitch. I was, you know,

9:28

I was like Jethro Tull out there, man. I was,

9:30

I was getting, I have no idea what that dude

9:32

sounds to me. We

9:34

had to look it up, man. If

9:36

you look up Jethro Tull, some videos,

9:39

you know, you know,

9:41

the scene, um, and

9:44

anchorman where he's playing the flute. That's after,

9:47

uh, I don't, I'm never, I'm

9:50

never, I'm never prepared. What

9:53

do you say? Like I'm not even prepared. I

9:55

haven't played it so long. That's classic.

9:57

That's from the band Jethro Tull. I

10:00

forget the main guy's name, but either

10:03

way. Well, this is awesome. Even if

10:05

it's true, not true, I love the

10:07

fact that there's Heights Eye artifacts

10:09

of Jason Kelsey playing in the marching

10:11

band. You did do a little

10:13

bit of pet band though. I feel like I remember

10:16

you being in the pet band for

10:18

basketball games, or were you just up there with the

10:20

pet band? No, I was just up there because those

10:22

are my boys and they were letting down some funky

10:25

beats in the Heights

10:27

pet band. The masterpiece

10:29

and Spodiaty Dobelicious. We

10:32

say it right this time. I think it is Spodiaty.

10:34

No, he says it in the... You

10:39

called me out on it and literally pulled the

10:41

phone out. It's

10:43

Spodiaty Dobelicious. Either way though, they

10:45

definitely... We had some bangers as

10:48

a pet band and

10:51

basketball, I mean, we're pretty good at basketball. It

10:53

was a great basketball. Coach Kapp transitioned

10:55

right over to Barry Egan. I

10:58

just remember you screaming at me

11:01

like an older brother one time

11:03

during a free throw. It's

11:05

like yelling at me to make the fuck...

11:08

What was that? Everyone's just dead

11:10

silent, just waiting for me. I miss

11:12

the free throw. I just hear from

11:14

Jason, make the free throw! I was

11:16

like, damn it. This

11:19

asshole up there in the fucking top

11:22

of the stand. Oh man, there's electric.

11:24

Good old high school memories,

11:26

man. We actually have another high-tie

11:28

shoutout from user UTPyro.

11:31

UtPyro34 on New Heights Reddit

11:33

page. Circa2002,

11:36

me getting trucked by Jason Kelsey. Oh

11:40

shit. A little Strongsville. Yeah, an old

11:42

hockey photo. Strongsville Mustangs. We played

11:44

a lot of hockey out in Strongsville growing

11:46

up and sure enough, 2002, that would have

11:50

been... That had to be like your freshman

11:52

year? I was only number 27 my freshman year.

11:56

And you went to 13, right? You know it. That

11:58

was always my number. Yeah, I thought so. So Friday

12:01

the 13th, scariest dude on the field on the ice.

12:03

I mean, labeled the enforcer. You

12:06

circle him on the scouting report

12:08

is do not fuck with this

12:10

guy where

12:12

you will get trucked like our

12:15

pyro buddy right here. Yeah, this

12:17

is actually from a, there's a

12:19

website, shutout.com that there's

12:21

two brothers, Nate and Gabe Shafer

12:24

that have been like chronicling

12:26

Cleveland Heights hockey for

12:28

a long time, and far predating

12:30

me. And the

12:32

pictures are still up. The rosters are still up. Matter

12:35

of fact, if you go to that year, 2002 on

12:37

shutout.com, you will see a startling image of

12:43

my, what I looked like as a 14 year old. What

12:45

do you mean? The greatest center

12:47

of all time? NFL Hall of Famer?

12:50

That guy? We're going to find that guy?

12:52

It's pretty cool that you can go back and look up

12:54

all that stuff. They still got all the guys that we

12:56

grew up with, all the

12:58

coaches. Yeah, Gabe was awesome for doing that.

13:01

He did some football games with some other sports

13:03

too, but he was all in on hockey. Well,

13:05

you used to do all the hide sports with

13:07

gabe.com and then they kind

13:09

of now just do the shutout.com. But

13:12

I don't know if Gabe is still a part of

13:14

it, if it's just Nate, but either way, both of

13:16

those guys really paid a service

13:18

to the Cleveland Heights community by keeping this stuff up and

13:20

running. Shout out to both of you guys. I do not

13:23

remember that game, but I went back and looked it up

13:25

and we got killed seven nothing or

13:27

seven one. I scored my first goal in

13:30

that game. First high school

13:32

goal. Really? Do you

13:34

remember how you scored it? I don't, but I

13:36

was a defenseman, so I'm guessing it was a

13:38

slap shot. You were a defenseman? My freshman year,

13:40

yeah. Dude, no way. I

13:42

promise you. Me and Nate. Your

13:45

center. Nate Pesser. How dare he? Your

13:49

center in every sport you play. Don't ever get

13:51

it to it. Don't ever. The

13:53

cross. Center. Midi. Hockey.

13:57

Center. Heh heh heh

13:59

heh. Put

14:01

this guy in the middle, all right? He's going to clean up

14:03

the trash in the front of the night, front

14:05

of the net. Yep. It's true.

14:08

He's going to fucking get into the fucking boards in the corners

14:10

and fucking body somebody. He's going

14:12

to be, he's going to back check. All right. That's

14:14

enough of Cleveland Heights is reminiscing. We've touched

14:16

on that enough. Let's get

14:18

to our last fan mention, which comes

14:21

from New Heights favorite, Unk. That's right.

14:24

Shannon Sharp posted a TikTok of himself

14:26

unboxing a special True Colors package that

14:28

Travis and the team sent to him.

14:31

Unk says he's unboxed a lot of gifts over

14:33

the years, but this is the coolest thing he's

14:35

seen. So shout out to True Colors

14:37

team for making this really special. Yeah. I'll

14:40

tell you what. And it's always kind of a surprise

14:43

to me on how the boxing is going to be.

14:45

Because I just, I really, we do

14:47

this during the football season. I kind of thumbs

14:49

up the exact like, you

14:51

know, sweatshirts and all the attire and all

14:53

the actual like designs and everything. And I'll

14:55

tell you what, teaming up with the Chiefs

14:57

has been awesome with this. Everybody

15:00

with True Colors has been involved, has been

15:02

amazing. Shout out to Danny. We

15:06

just, it's just, it's just been an absolute

15:08

blast and seeing, you know, friends and family

15:10

all over the States unbox these

15:12

and have some fun with it. And

15:15

everybody knows Shannon Sharp's a Denver

15:17

Bronco man for him to have

15:19

the decency to unbox Chiefs.

15:22

And I'll never expect him to ever wear this. Maybe

15:25

if I, maybe if I get the, to the

15:28

Hall of Fame, I might. He

15:30

did it the right way. He did it the

15:32

right way. Broncos fans better not fucking say anything.

15:35

All right. And Chiefs fans, just be grateful that,

15:37

Ankh blessed us, man. And

15:40

Shannon, we always fucking thank you, man. You're the best,

15:42

dude. And thank you. Thank

15:44

you to the Chiefs and everybody that works with me

15:46

on True Colors. You guys, I'll did

15:48

yourselves with this one, as Ankh would say. And you can,

15:50

I think you might be able to still go and get

15:52

some at the team shops in

15:54

KC. Oh, nice. Let's

15:57

move along to some no dumb questions. All right.

16:00

a few not dumb questions because there's no

16:02

such thing as dumb questions ladies and gentlemen

16:04

just dumb ass people. Hey! Alright

16:06

16:39

But moving on to No Dumb

16:41

Questions, at Joe D. Fran on

16:44

Twitter, at New Heights,

16:46

why don't players squirt their own

16:48

water? No Dumb Questions. That's a great

16:50

question. That is such

16:52

a good question. I

16:56

mean honestly, somebody

16:58

comes up to me with it already like

17:00

right here and all they got to do

17:02

is just, they

17:04

just go around from person to person and just like, do

17:06

you want one? I can shoot you real quick. And

17:09

it's like, it's way easier than handing the bottle

17:11

and handing it, I

17:14

don't know, it's maybe not that much easier

17:16

but it is convenient I will say that.

17:18

Yeah, I think this typically happens in like

17:20

a TV timeout or something like that where

17:22

you're trying to be efficient and get water

17:24

to as many guys as possible before the

17:26

timeout's up. So you kind of

17:28

just know when somebody reaches up to squirt you to open

17:30

up your mouth and then you

17:32

just get squirted. Squirted, yeah. Yeah. But

17:35

you don't always, like they don't have to do the

17:37

squirting, you can do the squirting sometimes, but

17:40

when you develop a relationship you

17:42

just know when you're about

17:44

to get squirted on and you open your mouth to

17:46

make sure that you get squirted. You

17:49

got to have a good relationship with the person squirting. Yeah,

17:52

you don't want to just be letting randos

17:54

squirt on you. You got to

17:56

make sure you know who you're dealing with. Then

17:58

it doesn't feel as... A trusted... Like

18:00

trainer, coach, individual

18:04

teammate. I'll let a teammate squirt me

18:06

sometimes, but. That's just a good teammate.

18:08

I'm trainer, I'll squirt. I'll

18:10

squirt you guys. If you need more trainer,

18:13

Trev, I have that in my fucking, I

18:15

got that fucking, I got that thing right

18:17

on the hip. Just need one. I

18:21

got you. There's something that feels

18:23

good about giving somebody a squirt.

18:26

Like it feels like you're, you're just doing them a solid.

18:28

Like, yeah, I got you the squirt. Are you want something?

18:30

I'll give you a squirt. Dude.

18:32

Have you ever, have you ever trusted someone

18:35

to squirt you and they just fucking miss

18:37

your mouth? Yeah, it's the worst. My,

18:40

my pet peeve. So these

18:42

greater aid water bottles are fantastic, but sometimes they

18:44

don't screw the lids on all the way. It

18:46

pisses me off when it just right down. I come

18:49

on guys. We embarked on this avenue

18:52

of trust. I opened

18:54

my mouth to accept your squirt and

18:57

you dumped it all down my chest. Oh

19:00

man. Squirt

19:02

me where I wanted to be squirted. Yeah. Moving

19:05

on from ad groovy girl 858 at

19:07

club 92 favorite Christmas movie. I

19:12

mean, there's, you can't go wrong. Um, and

19:14

also is diehard a Christmas movie or not

19:16

settled the debate once and for all. So

19:18

where are we going first? Where are we

19:20

going first? Are we going Christmas

19:22

movie or diehard first? Diehard. We got to

19:25

just knock diehard out. Knock diehard out. Yeah.

19:27

Diehard is not a Christmas movie. I mean,

19:29

it's, it's a movie you should watch around

19:31

Christmas. Well, what's the difference? Well, it's not

19:34

a, it's not a Christmas spirit movie. I

19:37

wouldn't say it's a Christmas movie because you can watch it at any time

19:39

of the year. It's not strictly

19:42

a Christmas time movie

19:44

to watch diehard is acceptable to

19:46

watch any time. Correct. You can't

19:48

watch Christmas story in, you

19:50

know, you cannot watch it in

19:53

July. Yeah. Doesn't

19:55

work like that. Doesn't hit, but diehard, you can watch that

19:57

whenever you want. You can definitely watch it during Christmas and

19:59

enjoy it. because it's a fantastic movie. I actually

20:02

I need to watch it again. I have not seen

20:04

Die Hard in a very long time. And

20:06

I'm embarrassed to say I don't even know if I remember

20:09

the movie fall away. I think it's

20:11

been that long since I've seen Die

20:14

Hard. Just picture Bruce Willis walking out

20:16

of exploding building with like explosions

20:18

just going off and he's just like barely

20:21

alive. That's the whole movie. Fair

20:24

enough. He killed it. I'm

20:26

kidding that they did make five of them of

20:28

him doing that exact thing. What

20:30

is your favorite Christmas movie? Favorite

20:33

Christmas movie? Damn, man. So

20:35

honest. I mean, Christmas

20:38

story hits home. That's the one that gives me the feels.

20:40

That's the one that gives me the feels because it's filmed

20:43

in Cleveland, Tower City as

20:46

a kid. I remember going down that slide. I

20:48

remember just like going into the mall area. On

20:52

top of that, just like

20:54

the scene of like the outside like

20:57

reminds me of a Cleveland Christmasy

20:59

like snowy Christmas. I don't

21:01

know. It's just I just get the feels

21:03

from that one. Yeah, I'm a comedy guy.

21:05

I don't like like

21:07

not funny Christmas movies. So

21:10

I'm probably gonna say either

21:12

elf or four Christmases. Dude,

21:14

I love both of those movies. I think I probably

21:16

put elf above four Christmases, but I'm such a Vince

21:19

Vaughn guy that I'll watch for Christmases any day of

21:21

the week. Oh,

21:23

shit. Talking about they're

21:25

all named after the city they were conceived

21:27

in or whatever. Dude, it's classic. I

21:29

think Christmas story is the answer. But elf

21:32

for Christmases. It's actually

21:35

a clause on Netflix. If you ever

21:37

watch that. Fantastic Christmas movie.

21:39

Very good animated. But

21:41

it's well done. Oh, the Grinch.

21:43

Damn. The Grinch is another good

21:46

one. The Grinch, dude. Gosh,

21:48

how do we forget about that? Tim Carey's

21:50

just my favorite in everything, man. I watch

21:52

the original two. I like the original Grinch.

21:54

I like any version of it, except the

21:56

most recent one. The most recent ones a

21:58

little bit. My kids like it, so

22:00

we watch it a lot, but God,

22:04

Christmas vacation. Man, we

22:06

are forgetting all of the good ones. I watch the good

22:08

vacation too. Christmas vacation is

22:10

good. No, listen, I

22:13

used to be in the same shoes, the same

22:15

boat you're in. You need to rewatch

22:17

Christmas vacation. I just

22:19

got caught up in the whole, all of the

22:21

national lampoons. When's the last time

22:23

you saw Christmas vacation? Probably last Christmas. No

22:25

way you watched it last Christmas. You didn't watch

22:28

it. I definitely watched it. I, I

22:30

love Chevy Chase. I

22:32

just like Vegas vacation so much more that I

22:34

think Christmas vacation is the best one, but

22:38

I, I didn't really appreciate

22:40

it when I was younger because I think I didn't

22:42

get a lot of the humor. I didn't understand it.

22:45

Oh, it's so much better than adult. It's fantastic. I'll

22:47

give it a shot. It's great. Home

22:49

alone. Home alone is another one. Like, I

22:52

love it. I love it. I can't say anything bad

22:54

about it. If you put it on, I'll watch it

22:56

right now. But in terms

22:58

of like my favorites, I just like a little bit

23:00

more comedy. Bad Santa, not that

23:02

much comedy. Bad Santa is

23:04

all comedy. That's what I'm saying. Not that

23:07

much. You know what I mean? Bad Santa. I mean, it's

23:09

legendary though. Billy Bob. Jingle

23:11

all the way. You can't go wrong with, um, can't

23:14

go wrong with Schwarzenegger. Schwarzenegger?

23:17

You can't go wrong. There's

23:19

never been a Schwarzenegger movie that I

23:21

have not enjoyed watching. All

23:25

right. You got me there. Something about the guy. That does

23:27

it for no dumb questions. Thank you guys for throwing it

23:30

in there. Um, Die Hard is not a Christmas movie. If

23:32

it is, then so is Four Brothers. You can throw that

23:34

one in there as well. Brought

27:35

to wrap up week 15, starting

27:37

with the fun one that we're going to talk

27:39

about the Chiefs Patriots game. Chief

27:42

27 Patriots 17. You

27:44

guys are back in the wind column after

27:47

some frustrating weeks. How's it feel

27:49

Trav? Fucking exhilarating. Gosh, it must. I'm sure I'm so

27:51

happy for you. I don't mean to rub it in.

27:53

It's kind of a dream. I love you. I

27:55

can't wait for you guys to win this week. You

27:57

can get off the train, man. The L train sucks. that.

28:00

Not a fun training to be on. But it was it

28:02

was not an easy one and I'll tell you what right

28:04

now we're able to put up some points man. We played

28:06

together, we played a pretty good

28:09

team, well-rounded team

28:11

game, all three phases

28:13

getting after it. Got

28:16

some turnovers, unfortunately we just still got to

28:18

keep cutting back on the turn on the

28:20

turnovers that we're doing on the offense but

28:23

at the end of the day we came together as a team

28:25

we found a way to win and that's all you can fucking

28:27

ask for man. Yeah man you guys

28:30

sure did as a team. Pat threw the ball

28:32

to nine different receivers in this game with

28:34

rookie Rishi Rice leading the way. Rice

28:36

had nine receptions for 91 yards in

28:38

the touchdown. With seven touchdowns on the

28:40

season Rishi now has the most receiving

28:42

touchdowns by a rookie in Chiefs franchise

28:44

history. Yeah pretty awesome man. I'm proud

28:46

as hell for him. Yeah. Of him

28:48

man he's uh he's slowly

28:50

been taking more and more responsibility as this

28:53

year's gone on and him and Pat have

28:55

been able to you know up to this

28:57

point even create a great relationship and a

28:59

great you know common ground

29:02

on in big key moments too. I'm talking about

29:05

third downs when we need it most. I think

29:07

his game is going to keep growing and

29:09

I think Coach Reed does a great job

29:11

with young players. I

29:13

know because he helped me out a

29:16

lot as a young player but he's going to keep putting

29:18

Rishi in great places in great

29:20

positions to have success in utilizing

29:22

his skill skill sets moving

29:24

forward man and I'm just happy for him that he's

29:26

finally you know I don't know it just seems like

29:28

he's taken a lot of a lot more ownership definitely

29:30

throughout the week and during

29:33

the games and man I'm I'm excited as hell

29:35

for him. Yeah he's having a tremendous season. He's

29:38

also second in most receptions in

29:40

franchise history by a rookie with

29:43

68 trailing only

29:45

one receiver with 70 in

29:48

their rookie year which we both are very aware

29:51

of which is Dwayne Bowe. Somewhere over

29:53

the Dwayne Bowe baby. That's my fucking

29:55

dog right there man. He was a

29:57

beast when we were just coming You

30:00

know it, the pride of LSU, the pride of

30:04

South Florida, man, that's one of my favorite

30:06

teammates of all time, man. It

30:08

killed me to see him go to Cleveland, but

30:11

I'll tell you what, man, he did an unbelievable job my

30:13

first couple of years. It just fueled

30:15

me with confidence to be myself, come

30:18

into the building and be myself. Don't be

30:20

uptight even though it is a serious job

30:22

and anybody can get hurt,

30:24

man. You just got to have fun every single day. And

30:27

Deebo, he had more fun than anybody. And

30:30

he definitely, he fueled everybody around him, man.

30:32

Well, Rasheer Rice was not the only one

30:34

to have a big game. Jett McKinnon and

30:36

Clyde Edwards-Aler, it looked like the backs were

30:38

getting involved in this one, man. GBC?

30:41

Yeah, man. Good

30:43

brother Clyde. Oh, yeah. He

30:45

went airborne for a touchdown. Go ahead. I

30:48

saw that, yeah. Jett finished with not only

30:50

one receiving touchdown, but a passing touchdown. That's

30:53

right. The play that everybody is

30:55

talking about that Andy somehow got

30:57

from a black and white footage from, what

30:59

year did he say it was from? 1940s.

31:03

He, it's so funny introducing these plays

31:05

because it's always from a TV copy

31:08

of a game that you really like,

31:10

you can barely see where the guys

31:12

are lined up. And when you press

31:14

play, it just looks like commotion. It

31:17

just looks like shit's going on and you really

31:19

don't know where the ball is because the picture

31:21

just isn't that clear. When

31:24

he installed it, everybody was in their head like,

31:27

that play is definitely going to work. Yeah.

31:30

100% guaranteed going to work. Nice. Love

31:32

having those ones in. And we've had it, we've

31:34

been working on it for probably the past 10

31:37

weeks, I would assume, thinking about where we are

31:39

in the team. Letting them marinate, making sure that you're ready for

31:41

all the different looks that could possibly

31:44

happen. You know what I mean? Yeah. And

31:47

then just the right time, you know. And sure

31:49

enough, we've been handing

31:51

it off the entire time and for some reason, Jett

31:54

decided to toss it. I've never

31:56

seen that play where he wasn't as fast

31:58

as he did. Zappi's

34:00

first, that's his first name is Bailey.

34:03

Yeah. Interesting. All right. Return

34:07

24 yards all the way to the

34:09

seven yard line. This was Willy Gage's first

34:12

INT this season. The Chiefs

34:14

were able to immediately capitalize with a touchdown

34:16

and the defense is now ranked number four

34:18

in the league right now per Fox Sports.

34:21

Whatever that's worth. I guess it

34:23

means that they're just playing really, really good football.

34:25

Well, you can tell. You can tell because teams

34:27

aren't putting up a lot of points. We've been

34:29

talking about it all year. Spagnola is, I mean,

34:31

he's doing such a fantastic job. They

34:34

all play so well together. There's great

34:36

players across the board. It

34:38

really is one of the best team defenses in the

34:40

NFL this year. And it's been,

34:43

you know, one of the storylines I think was, I

34:45

don't want to say unexpected, but I think, you know,

34:47

when you think of the Chiefs, you think about the high

34:49

scoring offense, Andy Reid, Pat Mahomes.

34:52

So this has been one that I think, you

34:55

know, people have been surprised with a little bit.

34:58

I'm sure you guys, not so much. Not

35:00

so much. Yeah. I

35:02

mean, these obviously were, we're starting to

35:04

get a little bit more healthy than we've been in the past couple

35:06

of weeks getting my guy

35:08

Bolton back, getting Drew tranquil back.

35:12

And Willie's been in there playing

35:14

his tail off flying around and

35:17

him getting the interception this week is just

35:19

rewarding them for how many plays he's been making in the

35:21

run game, man. He's

35:23

he's he's absolute beast flying around. You know,

35:26

on top of that, our defense

35:28

is secondary, man. Can't say enough

35:30

about them. Just the

35:32

way they're keeping everything in front and making teams drive

35:34

the ball downfield. You don't see a lot of big

35:36

plays. If it does happen, it happens one time and

35:39

we get it fixed. And

35:41

that's what that's what you want out of a defense,

35:43

man. The kind of the bend, don't break defense come

35:46

up in big key situations with

35:49

huge sacks or huge tip passes

35:51

and deflected passes and just

35:54

makes it really uncomfortable for an offense to to

35:56

try and move the ball down the field. unfortunate

38:00

drop. He had a drop. I had a drop. I was

38:03

right there just telling him you know I gotta we

38:05

both gotta be better man and everything

38:08

else that I said can be between us man.

38:10

I said everything I needed to say last week

38:12

and I was still on board and firm with

38:14

my you know convictions.

38:18

Yeah sure if that's the word. With

38:21

everything that I said man I'm on I still

38:23

believe everything that I said and sure enough we

38:25

we didn't play our best and we still came

38:27

out with a 10 point victory man and and

38:29

that's the good part of the NFL that you

38:31

can you know not play your best sometimes and

38:33

still come out victorious and and

38:35

try and find ways to keep getting better

38:38

and get some momentum going in the next

38:40

week. Well LeBron's stat of the

38:42

game, Jett McKinnon is the first player in

38:44

the league with a touchdown pass and a

38:46

receiving touchdown in the first

38:48

half of a game since the Chargers,

38:50

LeDanian Tomlinson in 2008. It's

38:53

a very coveted concept.

38:55

I think we finally starting to get this.

38:57

Yeah they're getting it. We're really starting to

39:00

have a fucking great one right there. Great

39:02

one right there. For making

39:04

the decision to toss it for some reason. Lastly

39:07

in attendance as was shown

39:10

on the TV copy the

39:12

whole Swift family well I shouldn't say that

39:14

it was Taylor and obviously

39:17

Scott. Yeah Mr. Swift. Nice

39:19

sweater on there. Yeah full full Chiefs gear.

39:21

It's a good sweater. No it looks good

39:23

on him. I

39:27

think his complexion really suits green more

39:29

if I don't say so myself. I

39:31

don't know it's kind of the kind

39:34

of looking real nice on him and it's a

39:36

swaggy vintage joint. I mean it's a nice one

39:38

I'm not gonna lie. He's rocking it man and

39:40

it seems to be enjoying himself it seems to

39:43

be everybody seems to be enjoying themselves in that

39:45

one right there. It's the wrong team but it's

39:47

a nice sweater. Oh man. I'll

39:50

say this they showed Taylor at the

39:52

game and I mean you don't you

39:54

don't see an entire home

39:57

team fan base go

Keep this thing moving to a little Seahawks

42:50

20, Eagles

42:52

17 on Monday Night Football, man. We gotta talk

42:54

about it, my brother. I know this is a

42:57

tough one, losing three in a row, but definitely

42:59

the way you guys lost it, man, that

43:01

was a heartbreaker. Any initial thoughts? Yeah,

43:04

obviously frustrating. Losing sucks,

43:06

man, it really does. We're not

43:08

playing to the

43:10

way we're capable of playing. I

43:13

think it's one

43:15

thing when you lose and you're just

43:17

not as talented, I think, as the

43:19

other teams. I've

43:23

said this the last three weeks, and I still think so.

43:26

I think we have great players, I really do. I

43:28

think we have great coaches. It's

43:31

just not clicking right now. And when you're

43:33

losing consecutive games, it's

43:37

not fun. I mean, this game is only fun when

43:39

you're winning. And that's when

43:41

you gotta come even closer together

43:43

to fight through the adversity, to

43:46

get it corrected, to play up to the

43:48

standard and to the ability that each and

43:51

every one of us can play. And it's

43:53

just, it's uncharacteristic, or what was uncharacteristic,

43:55

I guess, of earlier in the season. Just early

43:58

in the season, the reason we were 10... I wanted because we were

44:00

we were smart football team down the stretch. We

44:03

were yeah, we took care of the football We

44:05

did things right and you know,

44:07

obviously, you know myself included

44:09

we have not been disciplined enough

44:12

We haven't executed especially in crucial moments of

44:14

the game and it's frustrating It's

44:16

really frustrating but all you can do is go

44:18

back and work man Yeah I have solace that

44:20

I know for a fact we got great players

44:22

and that we can play a hell of a

44:24

lot better than what? We put on tape the

44:26

last few weeks So I look

44:28

forward to continue to work on that this week. Well,

44:30

like you said, it's it's more it's spotty, you know

44:32

It's not that you guys are playing just absolutely terrible

44:35

the whole game You guys are have big-time

44:37

drives where it looks like you guys are all in sync

44:39

and it's just working Great. I'm

44:41

both offense and defense. Yeah, but like

44:43

you said, it's kind of just putting

44:45

it all together And I always

44:48

kind of looked at a lot of the

44:50

the Tom Brady teams Yeah

44:53

at you you always you

44:56

always saw them in critical situations

44:59

Just find a way whatever it was, you know

45:01

grind out a first down on a third and

45:03

short or a third and long Find a way

45:05

to keep the ball moving get out of bounds

45:08

in two minute when it's needed When

45:10

it came down to situational football, they were pretty flawless

45:12

man, and I it doesn't matter how Crazy

45:16

the game can get if you're within a score

45:18

in the fourth quarter it's gonna come down to

45:20

situational football and how locked in you are and

45:24

That's it. That's the biggest thing man And then

45:26

I think that's kind of a struggle when you

45:28

have younger players or you have new players Or

45:32

you have new coaches or whatever it may be You

45:34

got to fucking learn With the guys that you have

45:36

and you got to you got to keep finding new

45:38

ways to do it because teams are gonna look At

45:40

your track record and they're gonna look at the scheme

45:43

That you've had or how you won

45:46

games in those situations before and

45:48

use that against you so it's just it's keep

45:50

building every single year and every single game and

45:53

Sometimes it takes a tough loss like that to Grind

45:56

out Some some

45:58

or iron out some wrinkles during the

46:00

week and get back on in the groove,

46:03

man. Yeah. Prior to the game, it came

46:05

out a few days before the game that

46:07

Matt Patricio would now be calling to defensive

46:09

plays for the Eagles. Sean Desci is a

46:11

fantastic coach. Yeah. It's

46:14

been awesome having him here

46:16

and bouncing things off of each other, going up

46:18

against him in training camp, figuring

46:20

out his defenses, and trying to having that

46:23

competition with each other, like blitzes and different

46:25

fronts, and how are we attacking it. I

46:27

have so much respect for Sean. Ultimately,

46:30

obviously, the organization, Nick

46:34

felt it was in the best interest of the team

46:36

to move forward with Matt calling plays. But

46:40

that doesn't take away any amount

46:42

of respect that I have for

46:44

Sean Desci. I can tell you that right now. Yeah.

46:47

I know he's a talented coach. I'm pretty sure I've

46:49

been a part of a OC change. Had

46:53

it? The year before Nagy

46:55

got hired in Chicago, Coach

46:57

Reed kind of handed the play calling

46:59

over to Nagy. Yeah. I remember that.

47:01

That was a big reason why he

47:03

got hired. I'm

47:06

pretty sure that was a big reason, like he's

47:08

ready to because he's called plays and we've had

47:10

success. Yeah. So I'm

47:12

not sure. But at the end of the day,

47:14

sometimes you just need a switch up, man. If

47:16

you feel like you're stuck in the

47:18

mud or you can't get out of it or you feel

47:21

like you're just getting schemed up, it's

47:23

better to just switch it up for a bit

47:26

or see how somebody else does

47:29

calling it. And

47:31

that's the battle of coaching, man. And

47:34

that's exactly what you go through sometimes. I mean, when

47:36

you play as poorly as we did against the

47:38

49ers and Dallas, no

47:42

matter what your record is before that, coaches

47:44

are, we got to get this corrected. And

47:47

yeah, for whatever reason, Nick

47:50

felt like there was a change that he wanted to make. And

47:53

that's the way it goes. I think when

47:56

you perform the way you do, decisions

47:59

like that, get mad. Well, it

48:01

was also reported a couple days before the

48:03

game that Jalen was sick and dealing with

48:05

a little bit of an illness

48:07

and even flew to Seattle on

48:09

a separate plane. Yep. This

48:12

is very interesting. Were you

48:14

surprised he was able to go? He was sick on

48:16

Saturday and he couldn't practice. Guys

48:20

get sick usually it's like a day thing, you know, it's like, oh,

48:22

he'll be back, you know. Then when he was

48:24

still sick the next day, I'm like, oh man, I don't know what's going to

48:26

happen. So we were kind

48:29

of preparing for both situations. I

48:31

think at the back of everybody said, knowing the

48:33

competitor that Jalen is, we all

48:35

expected him to play. He ain't going

48:38

to miss no game. That boy loves the ball, man. That

48:40

guy ain't going to fucking miss a game over some sickness.

48:42

Yeah, but you know. I mean, you got to be wearing

48:44

white pants and shitting all day. Exactly. You got to be

48:46

not wanting to go out there and land even then, you

48:48

know what I'm saying? You got to make it do what

48:51

it do. Yeah. So I think we

48:53

all expected Jalen to play just because of the

48:55

type of competitor and the guy that he is.

48:59

But we were ready to go if he couldn't go, you know,

49:02

Marcus was, Marietta was prepared and you

49:05

know, got to work with him throughout

49:07

those couple days there. Let's just talk some

49:10

post game quotes here. Coach Sirianni in quotes

49:12

saying that we just needed to pull away

49:14

in that game and we didn't. Yeah.

49:17

There were uncharacteristic

49:19

things situationally and

49:21

fundamentally and we have to be critical

49:23

of ourselves starting with myself. That's always

49:25

a good sign. Any time the fundamentals

49:27

are off, you got to look right

49:30

at me for that. And that's how you take

49:32

accountability as a coach. And I remember last

49:35

week, Matt Nagy seen the exact

49:37

same thing in the building to

49:39

the offense saying, you know what, let's just

49:41

get back to some fundamental, some key fundamentals.

49:43

It sounds high school hairy. It sounds like

49:45

it's the easiest thing. It doesn't sound like

49:47

it's going to fix a lot of problems,

49:49

but essentially it is. It's

49:51

going to let you focus in on smaller things, separate

49:55

the entire grand scheme of things

49:58

into like certain. points

50:00

and it's just you know I think

50:02

it's a it's it's something

50:04

that sounds very simple but can mean a

50:07

lot man yeah no I'm with you I

50:09

think I think a

50:11

lot of times you know everybody works

50:13

on fundamentals but I think you know

50:15

especially in the NFL you get

50:17

focused on these high-level you know

50:19

aspects of the game or these

50:21

things that you know like you're

50:24

out scheming people doing whatever and you

50:27

know really the thing that allows

50:29

you to be successful is the fundamentals that's what

50:31

allows each and every person to be

50:33

successful on the play and do their job

50:36

and it's real when I tell you I've

50:38

been in the league fucking 11 years and

50:40

as the season goes on you don't get

50:42

as many reps which means you aren't practicing

50:44

the fundamentals or as many of the fundamentals

50:47

as you had been during training camp over

50:49

the summer leading up to the first couple

50:51

weeks in the season you just don't get

50:53

all those reps to run all the routes

50:55

to get all the looks in the run

50:57

game yeah so you either got to take

50:59

that accountability on yourself or you just got to

51:02

be a pro and focus on the little things

51:04

and kind of break up an entire play into

51:06

like small increments of different

51:09

focuses or what you're focusing on it's being

51:11

a pro man and trying to sometimes just

51:13

getting back to the fundamentals is everything you

51:15

need Jaylen's also quoted

51:17

in saying we didn't execute I

51:19

didn't think we were

51:22

all committed enough just

51:25

got to turn it around and this is

51:27

a challenge we have to embrace that's

51:29

what the attitude you have to have I think you

51:31

know when you're not performing as a

51:33

team when you're not winning games

51:35

the only thing you can do is go back

51:37

and work that much more go

51:39

back and commit yourself that much harder yeah we

51:42

have great people in the building we have people

51:44

that want to win I know that there's no

51:46

question in my mind about that for me the

51:48

the commitment comment you know that's that's

51:50

all you can do is recommit yourself even more than

51:52

you already have you know I think

51:54

that at the end of the day all you

51:56

can do is go back and work go back and

51:59

focus on the fundamentals Focus on where you're

52:01

making mistakes as an individual. Focus on how

52:03

you can help your teammate, assist your teammate,

52:05

be where you need to be, bring energy.

52:07

I think all these things in

52:10

the grand scheme of things add up to you

52:13

and your teammates playing better if everybody has that mindset.

52:16

I think that when you

52:19

approach it with intention

52:21

and approach it with the

52:23

seriousness that it needs to be approached with,

52:27

generally things get corrected. I'm on

52:29

board with that. Well, let's hit the game a

52:31

little bit here. You

52:34

guys got off to a solid start with two

52:37

long eight and a half minute drives in the

52:39

first half. I know how

52:41

that feels. You guys kept us off the field as an offense

52:43

when we guys played you guys, but that led to a 10

52:45

and 0 lead, the worst lead

52:47

in football at half. But Seattle responded in the

52:50

second half holding you guys to seven points. What

52:53

was Seattle doing on defense to

52:55

really disrupt the rhythm? Listen,

52:59

Seattle played a good game. Obviously, I'm

53:02

not taking anything away from them. I think

53:05

that we just didn't execute. I

53:07

look at things intrinsically. Intrinsically, that was a good word. They

53:09

played a lot of shell. They played a lot of quarters.

53:11

They were trying to take away the big play, keep everything

53:13

in front of them, make us dink and duck, make us

53:15

run the football. That's why you had the

53:18

two long drives in the first half because that's what

53:20

they were giving us. They're giving us all

53:22

the underneath stuff and we took it and we capitalized on

53:24

it. It should have been 14 points and we're going to

53:26

get to that in a second. My false start

53:28

was crucial. It ended up being a big

53:30

reason why we didn't win the

53:32

game. I got

53:34

to eat that. The league

53:36

just won't let the brotherly shove be great,

53:39

man. I got nobody to blame. They're harping

53:41

on this. I got nobody to blame but

53:43

myself. Every single time you guys get in

53:45

that formation, they are. Yeah, but I know

53:47

that. I know that. I

53:50

have been warned about this because in years past, I

53:53

had been known to move the ball up. I really have not

53:55

done that that much this year. I'm not

53:57

trying to do it. You still get two feet right there.

54:00

I don't know about two feet. I don't think I'm gonna do

54:02

it. A ball's length. I don't mean to be funny about it.

54:04

But normally when you're getting down, you know, the problem was I

54:06

set my feet too close to the ball. So

54:08

when I'm trying to get a forward lean, I move the ball a little bit too far. I

54:10

get it. And it's the right call. I

54:12

mean, it was really stupid. You

54:14

know, put my hands on the ball first, then set my feet. Then

54:17

I guarantee that that call is not gonna happen. We

54:19

didn't even need a full yard for the first down.

54:22

So yeah, I mean, it was just, it's

54:26

beyond stupid. It's tough. You know,

54:28

and myself included, you know,

54:30

this has kind of been the entire

54:32

team to a certain extent over the last three

54:34

games, you know, up until the

54:36

Bills game, I think I had one

54:38

penalty on the season. Since then,

54:41

I've had four or five false

54:43

starts, you know what I mean? And including this play.

54:45

And they've all been in crucial situations. The Bills game

54:48

down the stretch almost cost us. This

54:50

one cost us three points or

54:52

four points, which ultimately, you know,

54:55

is the difference in the game. Yeah.

54:58

And then one on one, we were just collectively

55:00

operating on a much more consistent

55:03

situationally where smart football team, this

55:05

is not smart. This is stupid.

55:07

This is really stupid. And it

55:09

was unnecessary because the play was

55:11

still gonna work. So I just gotta

55:13

be, I gotta be better than that. Back to

55:15

what Seattle was doing. I mean, that was their name

55:17

of the game. They wanted to make us, you

55:20

know, they wanted to take away the big

55:22

play. We had some big runs, but they

55:24

definitely took away some of our explosive passes.

55:26

I feel like that's been the entire league.

55:29

Everybody's been kind of playing that

55:31

style of defense because it's just a safe way

55:33

to do it. Yeah. I

55:35

don't know. It can get frustrating, it can

55:38

get tough, but at the end of the day, you just

55:40

gotta turn into that grind mentality kind of team. You

55:42

know, you just gotta, you gotta get, you gotta

55:45

have ownership and have pride in being

55:47

a team that's just gonna be, just

55:50

gonna grit you out. You're just gonna

55:52

find ways to keep getting

55:55

first downs, whether it's

55:57

third and short, third and long, whether,

55:59

you know, Well,

58:00

right on, man. Any final thoughts on the

58:02

game? Listen, I'm just looking forward to getting

58:04

back and working with my guys. And with

58:06

that. I think it's losing

58:08

sucks, but

58:11

I know we're a hell of a lot better than what we've been showing

58:13

on tape. And I know that there's

58:15

great people in that building that I look forward

58:18

to getting this corrected with, going

58:20

out there and fighting. Because

58:22

I think all this stuff, it

58:25

sucks right now, but that makes it that much

58:27

better when you get it corrected. You

58:30

ain't lying. You ain't lying. Well,

58:33

three weeks left, dog. How about that? How

58:36

about that? We're already eating Christmas. playoffs?

58:40

They're over here. Wow.

58:42

It's an electric

58:44

feeling, the holidays. And then you add the end

58:48

of the season, just grit to it. Then

58:50

you just add the excitement of who's going

58:52

to get where in the playoffs. And

58:56

I'm sure you feel it too. You guys

1:01:33

right let's get to some week 15 roundup

1:01:37

uh some quick thoughts to the biggest

1:01:39

headlines from week 15 starting with

1:01:41

the shakeup and the Chargers organization that's right after

1:01:43

losing 63 to 21 man I

1:01:46

had it for as good the defense has been playing these

1:01:49

have been some of the highest scoring games between that this

1:01:51

one and the Dolphins game I haven't seen numbers like this

1:01:53

in a long time after

1:01:56

losing 63 to 21 to the Raiders

1:01:58

on Thursday night football the Chargers made

1:02:00

the decision of parkways with head coach Brandon Staley

1:02:03

and GM Tom Telesco, both of

1:02:05

them, the Chargers have some great

1:02:07

pieces. Uh, you know,

1:02:09

who do you think they should go after as the

1:02:12

next coach? I

1:02:14

don't know. Go

1:02:16

get like a young, never heard of college

1:02:18

coach. You like that route? I don't want

1:02:20

a fucking good coach to come into fucking

1:02:23

my division, dude. Get the fuck out of here. I

1:02:27

hope they fucking hire some jabroni, man. They

1:02:30

hired two fucking jabronis. They don't know what the fuck

1:02:32

they're doing. Talking about this

1:02:34

in three years or two years, just doing

1:02:36

the same thing. Rinse and repeat. I

1:02:39

don't, I honestly, I, I

1:02:42

got a lot of guys that I love and respect on

1:02:44

that fucking Chargers team, um, right now

1:02:46

it does not look pretty. And the guys that

1:02:48

I feel for are the guys like Keenan Allen,

1:02:50

who's just been there grinding it

1:02:52

out, putting everything he's got

1:02:54

forward, battling injuries, going

1:02:56

out there every single week, just not

1:03:00

getting rewarded with wins. Um,

1:03:02

that shit sucks, man. And, um, it's obviously

1:03:04

more than just him, Khalil Mack, Derwin James.

1:03:06

I, I got a lot of respect for

1:03:08

a lot of guys on that team. Um,

1:03:11

and losing fucking sucks. And I got a lot of

1:03:13

respect for Brandon Staley and for him to kind of

1:03:15

go out the way he did, um,

1:03:17

that shit, that shit, um, you

1:03:20

know, it's just, just not a,

1:03:23

not a fun way. I mean, obviously this year

1:03:25

hasn't gone the way it's been a

1:03:27

frustrating year for him this year. Yeah. But

1:03:29

all year he's been getting hit with questions

1:03:31

like, are you going to stop calling the

1:03:33

plays and he's standing on, on what

1:03:37

he's saying and saying that he's going

1:03:39

to keep doing it and the losses keep getting bigger. And

1:03:41

I don't know. It was just a tough, it

1:03:43

was a tough go for coach Staley. Cleveland

1:03:46

guy. I wish him the absolute best, uh,

1:03:48

moving forward, man. Sometimes a nice fresh start

1:03:50

is, is just what you need, man. People

1:03:52

are saying that Bill Belichick might be the

1:03:55

front runner for the head coaching role. Yeah.

1:03:57

No shit. Nope. Bill Belichick's going

1:03:59

to be the front. runner for any head coaching role?

1:04:01

Any head coaching role. I mean, what are we

1:04:03

talking about here, guys? If he is available, I

1:04:05

think everybody's going to want this guy. Yeah. I

1:04:07

don't know who they should hire. I think, um,

1:04:11

I always like with a young quarterback going with

1:04:13

a offensive mind, a guy

1:04:15

personally, but obviously

1:04:17

we've seen, uh, the bill, Bella check route work

1:04:19

with another pretty good quarterback. So, um,

1:04:22

I think that I can see that working

1:04:24

out. Nope. I don't want to see it. Um, he's,

1:04:28

I hope they, uh, they get some

1:04:30

trash ass coach from who nobody knows.

1:04:32

Um, all right. Well battle

1:04:35

for the Oilers uniforms. That's right.

1:04:37

The Texans beat the Titans 19 to

1:04:39

16, uh, in overtime

1:04:41

while the Titans were wearing their

1:04:43

throwback Houston Oilers jerseys, that's, that's,

1:04:46

uh, we talked about this, you, you're a firm

1:04:48

believer that we should be in Houston. I

1:04:51

firmly believe they should be in Houston. JJ

1:04:53

is another person who agrees with us. That's

1:04:55

right. We get the uniforms back. That's how

1:04:57

it works. I don't make the rules. Sorry,

1:05:00

not sorry. Too bad.

1:05:02

So sad. I

1:05:04

just, you know, listen, I

1:05:07

know that the owners own the team and the

1:05:09

franchise is part of it, but when you move

1:05:11

cities, I think the team name

1:05:13

should stay with the city, that's my own personal.

1:05:15

They were the ones that bought the jerseys. They

1:05:17

were the ones that, you know, spent

1:05:20

all the money rooting for these guys. I

1:05:22

know that Tennessee had the Oilers for a couple

1:05:24

of years, but they're, come

1:05:26

on, man, that's that,

1:05:29

that, that Jersey is rooted

1:05:31

in Houston history. Yeah.

1:05:33

Not Tennessee history. What kind of

1:05:35

history, but more so more so.

1:05:38

Yeah. That's my own opinion. I'm with you. If

1:05:40

anybody should get it as a throwback Jersey, you

1:05:42

should be Houston. Yeah. Yeah.

1:05:45

The fact that they tried to wear it

1:05:47

against them and didn't come up with

1:05:50

a win even solidifies it even

1:05:52

more. I do kind of like this

1:05:54

because there's not really, I mean, I think there's rivalry

1:05:57

games and there's like, what.

1:06:00

What's the name of a, like,

1:06:04

I feel like there are names for some

1:06:07

of the rivalry games in the NFL. Was

1:06:09

Cleveland and Pittsburgh ever, like, named anything?

1:06:12

Cleveland vs. Pittsburgh? No. Was

1:06:15

it the Cowboys and Eagles? No, I don't

1:06:17

have a name. It's the Cowboys-Eagles game. Yeah. Obviously,

1:06:20

in college, you have the trophies.

1:06:22

Yeah. This

1:06:24

would be pretty cool if they decided

1:06:26

these jerseys like this. Every time

1:06:29

the Texans and the

1:06:32

Titans play, one of

1:06:34

the teams wears the throwback, and whoever wins it the

1:06:36

time before gets to wear it for that game. I

1:06:39

think that's a pretty good compromise. That'd be a fun

1:06:41

way to throw in there. Just another piece to the

1:06:43

puzzle. It'll never

1:06:45

happen, but it's fun to do. It'll never happen.

1:06:47

Yep. Alrighty. All

1:06:49

righty. Steeler Safety, DeMonte KZ, suspended rest

1:06:51

of the season. It was

1:06:53

unfortunate, man. KZ was suspended for

1:06:56

the remainder of the 2023 season

1:06:58

after his illegal helmet-to-helmet hit on

1:07:00

Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr.

1:07:03

during the Steelers Colts game. I'm not going

1:07:05

to lie, I have not seen this

1:07:07

hit. I mean, it's a tough one. It's a

1:07:09

tough one. It is a nasty hit. It's a nasty hit because

1:07:12

he gets folded up and it kind

1:07:14

of... I mean,

1:07:16

he's just... He's in the

1:07:19

air, diving for the ball. Yeah, but he's not...

1:07:21

What do you expect the guy to do? He's

1:07:23

not here. Just let him catch the ball

1:07:25

and not try and hit him or not make a play on him.

1:07:27

I don't know. Did

1:07:29

he hit him with the crown of his helmet? Not

1:07:32

so much. Did he duck his head? Yeah, a

1:07:34

little bit.

1:07:37

I don't know what you want a safety to

1:07:39

do here other than just let him catch the

1:07:41

ball. I

1:07:43

think he's going in for him

1:07:46

to break up the pass. It's just so

1:07:48

hard. I don't think it should be the

1:07:51

rest of the season. I don't think this

1:07:53

was intentional. I'm trying to hurt this guy.

1:07:55

Well, that's where I'm at. It doesn't look

1:07:57

like he was intentionally trying to do this

1:07:59

to him. Yeah. I think this is I

1:08:01

think that's a bit much man But the issue with that

1:08:03

is like is there like a track record here? Because

1:08:06

a lot of times when these decisions get

1:08:08

made it's because there's like multiple occurrences of

1:08:10

something But just based on

1:08:12

that hit alone, obviously it's a penalty

1:08:14

Obviously, there's gonna be repercussions for it,

1:08:17

even though it's unintentional. You know what I

1:08:19

mean? Like Unfortunately, it's just one of

1:08:21

the things of the game the safety is trying to make

1:08:23

a play on the ball the receivers trying to make a play on the ball

1:08:26

and You know

1:08:28

the receiver gets the benefit of the doubt in

1:08:30

today's league And I think

1:08:32

it's probably for the betterment of all of

1:08:35

our players health and safety that they do

1:08:37

Yeah, but I also don't think anything of

1:08:40

KZ for doing that. I mean it just

1:08:43

it looks like that's not something. Yeah a

1:08:45

tough football play I mean you get you

1:08:47

get caught in some bad positions on the

1:08:49

cover my situation sometimes and what it is

1:08:51

It's football. I just think and Brady commented

1:08:53

on it and said to put the blame

1:08:55

on the defensive player all the time It's

1:08:57

just flat out wrong. I agree with that

1:09:00

man. Yeah, there's just some search some situations

1:09:02

in football You can't can't avoid and we

1:09:04

all sign that line that says we can

1:09:06

get injured playing this fucking game So

1:09:09

I just I don't know. I think it's not

1:09:12

worthy of us the rest like the

1:09:14

rest of the season Suspension

1:09:19

But I don't know. Yeah.

1:09:22

Well, I think if this was a one-time offense,

1:09:24

I think this wouldn't be as a End

1:09:27

of the season suspension if you look

1:09:30

at John Runyon's quote when players violate

1:09:32

the rules intended to protect player safety

1:09:34

on a repeated basis And

1:09:36

particularly when the violations carry with them

1:09:38

a significant risk of injury to the

1:09:40

opposing player is appropriate to impose substantially

1:09:42

greater penalties, so it's pretty clear here

1:09:45

I don't know how many times KZ

1:09:47

is done but it's happened before but

1:09:49

this is a repeated instance And I

1:09:51

think that that's why the

1:09:53

penalty is as great as it is because just on

1:09:55

that hit alone Obviously that's

1:09:57

gonna be enforced. Yeah, but it didn't look

1:10:00

like that was an intentional thing but if

1:10:02

there are I mean that's the way it works if you do things

1:10:04

over and over again. P defender man. Yeah. Always

1:10:06

get hit twice as hard. But I do agree with

1:10:08

Brady you know some

1:10:10

ownership has to be put on the quarterback

1:10:12

to try and protect your teammates as

1:10:14

well. We've all seen Julian Edelman's highlight tape. I don't

1:10:16

mind to say but it's an interesting quote from Brady.

1:10:19

Tom. We don't want

1:10:21

to go there. Tom. Tom's been killing it man.

1:10:23

I don't care what anybody says. He's fucking crazy

1:10:25

creating some great conversations out here. He is. They

1:10:27

have great combos man. Fuck. At

1:10:29

the end of the day. You just got to know who you can put in

1:10:31

that the compromise situation. Jules

1:10:34

is as tough as they come. Gronk. Jules is

1:10:36

as tough as they fucking get dude. Both

1:10:38

of them. Are you kidding me? Fuck. And

1:10:40

sure enough, they're fucking all famous because

1:10:42

of it. Falcons wide receiver, Mac Hollins

1:10:45

good friend to Jason who arrives barefoot

1:10:47

to the Falcons Panthers game. Took a

1:10:49

little page out of Jason's book going

1:10:51

no socks, but Jason's always in flip

1:10:54

flops. You might be

1:10:56

overdoing yourself. Or he might have

1:10:58

outdone you. Hey, if there's anybody

1:11:00

I would be happy to be outdone by it

1:11:02

is Mac Collins. Let me tell you, Mac was

1:11:04

in Philly for the early part of his career.

1:11:07

And he was a locker room favorite man. He

1:11:09

is a unique individual.

1:11:12

He read them books in the cafeteria. He's got

1:11:14

his Rubik's Cube. You should call him backpack Mac

1:11:16

because that was his celebration in the end zone.

1:11:19

Put the team on my bike. And he was that guy

1:11:21

that would do anything for the team. And

1:11:24

to see the way his career has gone. And

1:11:27

for him to continue to be a playmaker and

1:11:29

have the games he's had in Atlanta. As

1:11:32

well as where was he at before Atlanta? Tampa

1:11:35

Bay. Either way though,

1:11:38

he's been blossoming since he left

1:11:40

Philadelphia. And he was, he

1:11:43

was just a locker room favorite man. He's just

1:11:46

a fun funny dude, smart intelligent guy. And

1:11:48

he's a talented player. So and

1:11:51

I guess you know, he's just working on being grounded.

1:11:53

I don't know. What do you do? Why

1:11:55

would you walk barefoot into a game? Lost your

1:11:57

shoes. Don't like your shoes

1:11:59

match. your outfit. Maybe he's into grounding.

1:12:01

Have you heard about grounding? It's where you

1:12:04

just get electrocuted by earth. There's a theory

1:12:06

out there that your body is a big

1:12:08

electrical circuit or whatever. 100%

1:12:11

it is, yeah. Right. And that was earth. When

1:12:14

human beings didn't

1:12:17

wear shoes, we were grounded. Like in

1:12:20

that somehow made the electrical

1:12:22

unit operate more efficiently. I'm

1:12:26

probably doing a terrible job of summarizing this,

1:12:28

but maybe that's what he's doing. Yeah,

1:12:30

no. And there's something to say.

1:12:32

I don't know about on concrete,

1:12:34

but I know that if you

1:12:36

step on grass, right? Yeah, grass,

1:12:38

dirt. If you're on grass, you

1:12:40

definitely get some of the electric

1:12:43

current from the earth. Do you guys have

1:12:45

all these guys wearing barefoot shoes? Yeah, I

1:12:47

know that's what I'm talking about. Actually, all

1:12:49

these guys wearing barefoot shoes. The shoes with

1:12:51

the toe that separate your big

1:12:54

toe? No, well, I think they do

1:12:56

have those maybe, but they just have like a

1:12:58

wider toe box and it's supposed to like let

1:13:00

your foot displace like you're walking barefoot. Just walk

1:13:02

barefoot. What do you need barefoot shoes

1:13:04

for? If you want to be, you know,

1:13:07

I don't know. Everybody's feet are like

1:13:09

soft nowadays. Like I feel like back in the day, you've like

1:13:11

built up some... Not Macales. You've built up some... All right

1:13:14

now. You gotta have your barefoot

1:13:17

socks on with your barefoot shoes. Just go

1:13:19

to the end with all the full Jason

1:13:21

Kelsey. No draws, no

1:13:23

soap. I walk around like the biblical

1:13:25

times. Very interesting. You

1:13:27

ever try to walk on water? I think

1:13:30

I might have actually tried to do that once. It didn't work

1:13:32

out. Just run really fast. See

1:13:35

how far you can go. Let's just

1:13:37

keep this thing fucking moving. We don't know

1:13:39

what the fuck we're talking about. All righty.

1:13:41

Winner meeting rule changes. At the December NFL

1:13:43

League meeting last week, a few possible rule

1:13:46

changes were brought up for next season. I

1:13:48

did not know this. Kickoffs

1:13:51

could be undergoing a change as

1:13:53

they have pretty much ever here

1:13:55

at this point. What else do we need to change on the

1:13:57

fucking kickoff? It is

1:13:59

already... not even a real play it's

1:14:01

just like don't take it away the ceremonial

1:14:04

kick off yeah exactly just make it us

1:14:06

don't take it away whatever you do do

1:14:08

not take away the kickoff that's gonna fucking

1:14:11

be so unelectric well NFL executive

1:14:13

Troy Vincent says the kickoff is

1:14:15

a dead ceremonial play today and

1:14:17

it will be addressed so

1:14:21

it looks like they're gonna take it away

1:14:23

that's deflating that's just deflated me I don't

1:14:25

know what to tell you Trev this Christmas

1:14:27

sucks NFL

1:14:29

to review controversial fumbling through the

1:14:31

end zone rule oh yeah the

1:14:33

league will be taking a look

1:14:35

at the rule that takes away

1:14:37

possession from the offensive team if

1:14:39

they lose a fumble out of

1:14:41

the defensive teams end zone is

1:14:43

the old touch back or yeah

1:14:46

touch back I'm a fan of it I

1:14:49

like the fact like it changes I also like

1:14:51

kickoff has a little wrinkle yeah I

1:14:53

also like it when guys launching we just not like

1:14:55

rule into guys the old crusty players I don't like

1:14:58

all the new rules this is 100% us

1:15:02

it's 100% I would be okay with this rule

1:15:04

if you get to retain possession but you have

1:15:06

to go back to your own 20 I

1:15:09

think that's what the argument is that's what the argument

1:15:11

is yeah I can be on board with that but

1:15:13

I still like that it changes position I can't get

1:15:15

on I like I like to exactly where it is

1:15:18

I like it changes positions the

1:15:20

push push is expected to be reviewed this

1:15:22

offseason but not banned what

1:15:24

is reviewed but not banned I don't know

1:15:26

what that means well Troy Vincent explains okay

1:15:29

I think there was a report that either

1:15:31

the league office or the commissioner was looking to eliminate

1:15:34

this play that was false you don't

1:15:36

want to punish anyone from doing

1:15:38

something well people have tried different things

1:15:40

to stop it have not had success

1:15:43

yeah that's a great point yeah I guess we

1:15:45

all thought that a commissioner good good L was

1:15:47

on board with getting rid of it but it

1:15:49

sounds like he's open to just kind of tweaking

1:15:52

it a little bit so we'll see we'll

1:15:54

see what happens with that one hip drop tackles

1:15:56

this is one that you and I disagree with

1:15:59

I think because It's just hard to

1:16:01

imagine nobody tries to do hip-trops. I'm just trying

1:16:03

to tackle the guy, but what do you mean?

1:16:05

I was on board with you on this I

1:16:07

know we're on the same page, but we're not

1:16:09

on the same page with Roger Oh, Roger doesn't

1:16:11

like it NFL commissioner Roger Goodell told reporters that

1:16:13

he would prefer to see the hip-trop tackle eliminate

1:16:15

hip-trop I would tell you I think we should

1:16:17

all work to get that out of the game

1:16:19

the injury can be very devastating I mean, I

1:16:21

agree if there's a way to get it out

1:16:23

of the game, but I just don't know that

1:16:25

this is You know

1:16:27

what it I don't know I

1:16:30

don't think this is an intentional thing that happens. I

1:16:32

don't know how You're gonna stop

1:16:34

somebody from wrapping their arms

1:16:38

Trying to bring him down and accidentally falling on the

1:16:40

back of his legs. There's nothing you can do to

1:16:42

stop that I mean you're gonna take away a Lot

1:16:45

of I just don't I

1:16:47

don't get how you how you call that that

1:16:50

all it happens multiple times Every

1:16:53

game yeah If not every single time a running

1:16:55

backs getting the ball and running the ball in

1:16:57

the middle of the field Well, and it's and

1:16:59

it's unfortunate when the injury had obviously I mean,

1:17:01

it's the same thing when offensive lineman gets rolled

1:17:03

up on right? It's it's it's an unfortunate part

1:17:06

of the game and these injuries are devastating for

1:17:08

careers And if there's a way to legitimately

1:17:10

get it out of the game You

1:17:13

try to do that, but I just don't know how they're gonna do it

1:17:16

and it leads It's I don't know what

1:17:18

is it gonna be a penalty because like I

1:17:20

just don't even the one where they change the

1:17:22

rule a few Years ago of the quarterbacks were like

1:17:25

a defense alignment can't land with his entire weight

1:17:27

on the quarterback I'm not even a fan of that

1:17:29

one Put your fat ass on him.

1:17:31

I don't know I don't you like but I

1:17:33

that's yeah, I'm with you. I'm with you We

1:17:35

just hate rule changes. That's what it comes down

1:17:38

to we're just crazy. We're just sorry Roger Sorry,

1:17:41

Roger. I don't think either one of these need

1:17:43

to get changed though. Yeah, I don't think we

1:17:45

should just not change Yeah, I think the

1:17:47

game is great Let's

1:17:50

reverse some of these rules. Yeah Let's

1:17:53

allow Cubes a fucking

1:17:55

belly flop. I will say though.

1:17:57

I didn't know if guys are

1:17:59

gonna be able to stop doing that and they did. Guys

1:18:02

now put their arm down, they brace to try and

1:18:04

make sure they don't fall alone and he still happens

1:18:06

occasionally. So maybe there's a way to take

1:18:08

hip drop tackles out that I'm just

1:18:10

not fully aware of. I guess we got to

1:18:12

have some defensive guys. I've never performed a

1:18:14

hip drop tackle. Rodeo tackle. Yeah.

1:18:18

Whatever. Whatever. Let's

1:18:21

get to some new heights. Yeah. Stamps of

1:18:23

1:18:25

1:18:34

there. That's pretty good. That's pretty

1:18:47

good. Thanks. I had to go into the whisper sing. Jason,

1:18:51

start us off with your pick, dude. I'm

1:18:53

going to go with Dolphins running back

1:18:55

Rahim Mostert. Um, a lot

1:18:58

of people don't know Mostert started his

1:19:00

career as an undrafted free agent in

1:19:02

Philadelphia. No. Yeah, man. He

1:19:04

did. Undrafted free agent. He was on the practice

1:19:06

squad for a little bit, I believe. Out of

1:19:08

Purdue University. Boilermaker. Yeah, Boilermaker. There we go. Uncle

1:19:11

Don style. But I don't know, man. I just

1:19:13

love it when guys start their careers off on

1:19:15

practice squad. They're moving around. I think he played

1:19:17

for like, you know, four or five

1:19:20

different teams in one year, uh, before

1:19:22

finding his footing in San Francisco and

1:19:25

really blossoming in that Kyle

1:19:27

Shanahan offense, obviously, uh, Mike

1:19:31

Daniels, uh, saw what he liked and

1:19:33

brought him over to him in Miami.

1:19:36

And, uh, now Rahim Mostert

1:19:38

set a franchise record for

1:19:40

rushing touchdowns, scoring his

1:19:42

17th and 18th rushing touchdown in the

1:19:44

Dolphins 30 to nothing win

1:19:47

over the jets. The record

1:19:49

was previously set by none other

1:19:52

than, uh, old smoky

1:19:54

Ricky Williams in 2002 with six

1:19:56

touchdowns. He

1:19:59

also now has. 20 total touchdowns

1:20:01

this season breaking the Dolphins single

1:20:03

season touchdown record previously set by

1:20:06

wide receiver Mark Clayton in

1:20:08

1984. A lot of LeBron stats

1:20:11

in there but all that really is saying

1:20:13

is that Raheem Mostert is balling and he's

1:20:15

had an incredible career arc so I need

1:20:17

to give my man some love right there.

1:20:20

Here we go. You're getting the new Heights Raheem

1:20:23

and you've been doing it for a while man he's got

1:20:25

to show you some love. I'm gonna keep it in the

1:20:27

RB room man I almost went Drew Locke but I know

1:20:29

it's too soon. It's too soon for you. Boy

1:20:32

I saw Drew Locke play in high school how funny

1:20:34

is that man? That's how old we

1:20:36

are man. Where'd he go? He was a Missouri, he

1:20:38

might have been Kansas I don't know. He was one

1:20:40

of the one of the schools out south

1:20:42

here in Kansas City and

1:20:45

I went to and it was actually basketball game I went to

1:20:47

see him play basketball he dropped 30 and got the dub but

1:20:50

a Mizzou kid and ended up going and playing for

1:20:52

the Tigers over there in Mizzou and

1:20:55

was in Denver for a few years and it was

1:20:57

cool to see him get his get

1:20:59

a win or get the start and find a

1:21:01

way to get a win even though I was rooting for the Eagles the

1:21:03

entire time. Yeah sure you

1:21:05

were. Still got some love for Drew for

1:21:07

putting that shit on. Throwing a backpack

1:21:09

on. But I'm going with Bill's

1:21:12

running back James Cook. He

1:21:15

is out here absolutely cooking right

1:21:17

now. Finished the game with 221 total

1:21:21

scrimmage yards and two tuddies becoming Josh

1:21:23

Allen's favorite target to either hand the

1:21:25

ball off to or throw it to.

1:21:27

Dude it was impressive. He

1:21:29

had a hell of a game when he played us two weeks ago

1:21:31

and followed it up against

1:21:33

the Cowboys. Out gained the

1:21:35

entire Cowboys offense just by himself as

1:21:38

Cook finished with a career high and carries 25

1:21:40

and rushing yards 179. Congrats on taking your game

1:21:42

to new heights

1:21:47

Mr. Cook. It was impressive it was an impressive

1:21:49

game to watch man. Early on in the season

1:21:51

he kind of got some he

1:21:53

got some hate for maybe some turnovers here and

1:21:55

there but he has been absolutely bawling and you

1:21:58

love to see a guy get a fix. And

1:22:00

get a ride and have some success massive shout
