Let's get to it and on the casting chatting couch from Boston old Connor who's very sad to see The Patriots dynasty died this weekend. You said? No that is not what I said you did is not they say I said two to three years. So I think we have some time Lana. Well your two to three years was you back pedaling like Stephon Gilmore because on numerous occasions this year you have said that the Patriots stink in every time that you and other Talking Heads out. There have said the Patriots thank all the Patriots do is take that down on a little notebook. And now they're saying that they're going on a revenge tour this playoffs. They say Calvin noise. A friend of the show. He's been on here a couple of times has this playoff Run for the Patriots is going to be a revenge tour. I don't know what that means. They were the the franchise of the decade. Yeah, they're the franchise in the best franchise in the history of professional sport. Basically, the only people that can really compete with them or potentially the San Antonio Spurs Nana and Texas and I think that's it. Maybe Manchester United back in the day when we were younger and they had all the good players David Beckham Wayne Rooney and they're on TV all the time. Maybe they had a good run. I don't know soccer well enough but the Patriots what they Able to do the last 20 years is the most impressive thing in all of sports and now somehow someway they have figured out a way to call this a revenge tour after being the reigning defending Undisputed Super Bowl champion. And for that that's why I love Belichick. That's why I love the Patriot Way and they're turning this into a completely motivational thing, but I don't know if that's going to score points for him. I just don't know if that's going to happen. I hope it does for your sake and for the Patriots fan base because you guys haven't got to experience happiness enough 3 2 2 3 2 3 As you said, yeah that thing's over 2 to 3 days my friend. Whoa, I got something here just to think about a know your numbers guy know you're a gambler. Yeah that will check when playing a team in the playoffs that he didn't face in. The regular season is 15:2 and one against the spread 16 and two straight up. That's what good Patriots tapes pretty good a hell of a record of balichek. Is that I bet you Mafia you Italians pile of Belichick? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah for the win. Same of the decade in the NFL. I remember Stars when I first got into sports gambling when I first got into sports gambling because when you're in the NFL, although that dude that was on ir and Arizona was just caught gambling when you're in the NFL or any professional sport. I'd assume as soon as you walk through the doors. They tell you not to be Pete Rose, right? Don't be Pete Rose don't Gamble and sports and I had too much to worry about where I didn't even think about gambling on Sports. Anyways, even though I had a lot of Italian friends too many italian friends growing up. So I mean Sports gambling was always something that was chat about But for me, I was just always so far away from it because like I would even tell some of my friends that love sports gaming. I'm like, you know, I don't even know how I'm gonna I don't even know how I'm going to do this weekend. Like maybe maybe I got a cough that's been keeping me up like two hours at night and you have no idea about that and maybe what I drop a snap like the kid from Wisconsin and they run one back. I mean you have no I don't even know if that's going to happen. I don't know how you could think about it. So I just I always thought it was the dumbest thing ever. So then I retire and I'm like God again, but gotta get into it and I started doing it my man. Bat was the second half points for the New England Patriots. I just assumed that when Tom Brady and Josh McDaniels put their big beautiful brains together at half time. They're going to be able to figure out and dissect the other team and say it made me thousands of dollars and then it stopped and then it didn't happen anymore. And it feels like that's kind of what had happened to this Patriots team is that the Patriots offense just hasn't been able to figure it out until maybe this Last couple weeks they were able to move against that Buffalo Bills defense like it was no problem. But then who played them the next week the Buffalo Bills somebody played Buffalo Bills next week. I don't know and move them all over him. And then the dolphins go into Foxborough and they were able to stop Tom and they were able to score against Tom. So now it was like what I thought was once a problem for them not being able to move. I thought they had it fixed and correct it against the bills then they play the Dolphins and it's like wait a minute. I had this rule where I'm not betting against the Patriots this year. I said that I'm not going to bet against them. I'm not going to bed. Some in this weekend. It feels very hard not to bet against them. And that's exactly where they want exactly where they want me. Is that not right Connor? I mean, that's completely right. I mean we want everyone to write us off and then go on this revenge tour and chip-on-the-shoulder get it done Phillip Dorsett became a weapon deep for them again, right? So Phillip Dorsett was hurt there for a little bit because when I was on get up Rex Ryan would always say that and even Tom Brady said it when Tom Brady sat on the sidelines looked at his team, and he said I need you to be faster. Sir, I need you to be quicker. I need you to be more explosive just all these things. He was pleading with a bunch of humans to do things. That humans just can't fix sitting on the sidelines. Right so everybody was saying they weren't fast enough. They didn't have enough weapons, but I got a chance obviously you see Phil Dorset whenever he was at the Colts. He ran like afford to he was very fast and at the beginning of the Season he was making some big plays for them down the field. He was hurt for a while. They lose that he came back last week or two weeks ago and he started getting some shots. I think you dropped a water too, but that could Really help out the offense. Then the kill Harry could potentially help out the offense and the offensive lines may be getting hot enjoying Ottomans always going to be this girl found in the not I mean we're talking about what if they get hot right now and go on a run and just piss everybody off yet again, that's going to be a frustrating thing. Whenever we wake up on Monday in this is going to be the same old story that the Patriots Buzz saw the Titans. I mean, that is very very That is and that is that is a potential to happen. I mean, we have a chance on Monday to wake up at City Patriots do it yet again when nobody thought the people in the past have buried them after week to week for week six saying they're not the same Patriots, but it's never gone this long like that it I don't know if you could flip a switch this late in the season and just figure stuff out this late in the season. So Ryan Fitzpatrick, you know, let's assume that he didn't just put a blue print out there from Ryan Tannehill. I just assumed he didn't because Neil knows he can't do anything arrived Fitzpatrick, right Ryan Fitzpatrick. We've said this before braying of a Harvard guy heart of a plumber and we'll run his face into anything and do anything. He is a nominal in anomaly. He's beating the Patriots for every team in the Patriots division himself. He's an anomaly so let's assume the Tannehill just can't do exactly what they did which is something that maybe they possibly can especially with Derrick Henry a to what 40 to 50 and the bat. I don't know man. I I'm very indifferent on this. Entire thing and you said that the Patriots thinking now you're backing off of it because you don't your friends from back home to Yellow, you know, I mean, they haven't looked great and you loose the Dolphins in Gillette. It's hard not to say that the Patriots think that's the real. That's the only one I don't have a good feeling about gambling was this weekend. We've been on a little bit of a heater gambling here, by the way. I mean, you're not so much you picked Auburn over Minnesota. You should have no Sky you borrow the boat. I mean you knew that you should have known that I figured better players would win but you know that that it happened but PJ Flack you to your bed again. DJ flight yesterday and in a bowl game as far as other day before I understand this. I think you were getting too and you're starting to feel yourself too much. You remember? No, it's Peaks and valleys but two weeks of PJ Flex know motivating those kids two weeks of that. There was no way they weren't just gonna go out there and buzzsaw. Oh, yeah. Also that might have that might as well have been like the Rose Bowl for Minnesota. Like they're not used to playing in those big New Year's Day bowls. So you knew they were going to come out and be ready to go if the mob didn't get the with us Wisconsin kicker. I think we're okay the putter. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know how that happened. I guess it just slips out of your hand. And it's when your Ponting when you're putting the first thing you have to think about these catch the damn ball. There's a lot. That's the first thing I think about because every time you go on the field, you got to catch a ball. I used to wear one glove, right? Because I like the I like to feel the ball with my right hand because whether it's laces or something when you're trying to drop it perfectly flat also, you don't want the stickiness of the glove to potentially knock it off center because it has to be perfectly straight as well when you drop it so I didn't wear it there. But every time I caught a ball I would watch like anytime I watch somebody catch a ball in practice. Why does she do they always have these? Love's on it made it look so easy. Every time I was going on a field I'm catching a ball. I'm like, well, I'm definitely going to use a glove so I would always have one glove on commentators big. I don't know why he has a glove catch a ball every single time on the field. I've more receptions every single game than damn near every wide receiver on the team at literally its it was mine bat. So I would catch it and I think the biggest Advantage I had I honestly think the biggest Advantage I had because I I took a little bit longer steps, but I was able to get the ball into a position to bomb it quicker than everybody because I want to so much work on the jugs machine. Like I want to work on the jugs machine that would get a lot of damage from college kids that were Partners. They would send me like film and like how do you think I get better? I'm like work on your hands. You get better hands. You probably punt the ball better. That's the first thing I think that people don't take account for and it seems like that gets done in a couple times down the last couple games. It's you gotta get real comfortable with balls in your No real though, you got to have good you have to have good dexterity with the ball. And I don't know how you slip out there. Did you what I would also if I were a glove on my left hand and then I would lick my fingers more than Brett more than Aaron more than Dan Marino. I would lick my fingers a lot because just the thought of that things slipping out there. That's a nightmare. They're just getting clobbered and that's at Utterback got away that poor guy. He got slammed right now face gave up a touchdown then they lose his entire offseason. He has to deal with that. He has a deal with that every single day of his life for this entire off. See that's a night. You dropped one once and still got a kick off then. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah something did you jukka God thank you. It's the snap was that like my right shoulder by Overton. And for some reason I just like if you just have a lack of focus right for one sec. I like looked away and I think went bouncing out of my hands and that's the it was on Thursday Night Football. I think that's a full like poop your pants like my oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. This is this is not how this is like this isn't a video game. This is real life. I'm gonna have to walk back over to that side line and stare at a bunch of real athletes where I just dropped the ball and now they're going to score a touchdown. So I scooped it up and took a good bounce to me and I'm like, okay A little bit of athlete here and I turn and there's just a look to be a six foot four 240-pound guy with like a number 57 staring at me and I'm like, oh no, so I hit him with a little I hit him with an L1 or an R1 what makes people smile FL one I want. Yeah, so I hit him with an L1. Was a little bit I didn't stop on a dime. It was more like a half dollar. I was like a little bit of a Skip and then I got a pun off but penalty we had too many men down past the line of scrimmage had to come back. Next one guy was run by leg, but got the punt off. It was just a bad moment. But yeah ball on the ground ball slipped out your hands nightmare situation and there's some punch you see where the ball is slipped out of the punters hands. You can probably tell by the outcome of the ball, but didn't get it on the ground. That's that's that's tough stuff that do you have fire see Patience for those or is it always just get it up and pun it as soon as real goal. You have fire situations, but those never work. Anyways, I mean because by the time you say fire the guy you're supposed to throw to it has already been run over blasted in the face. You're always like all right, let's let's practice at least one fire today because you don't want to tell the offensive line, right? So you just have to like before one kick. I'll look at Vinnie and I'll be like I were doing a fire here. Are you got it every single time. It never feels get down fire fire. A fire and then it's a little look back. Oh my God, that'll work at a game. That'll work again. I don't know how many successful ones that are. But that was quite a turn in that game. Most special teams plays like that are by the way organ that Herbert kid. I'm intrigued by what happens with him in the NFL. I didn't like the way in the Oregon Utah game where he did well by all accounts he did. Well, they zoomed in on his face and this just sounds like judging a book by it's cover. I like to see something in like the eyes of of like somebody, you know, like I think That's a big I think you can tell a lot by guys especially in the middle of the game how he's carrying himself. I don't know how he's going to do look like a bit of an athlete yesterday though gave a guy stiff on through the ground. I have a pretty good didn't press this. He's had too many Duds this season a lot of thoughts lot of dots in and being an NFL quarterback is not easy like a lot. I think that's the they'll be senior bowls and all these bowl games or they'll be like eight of the best quarterbacks in college football. I'll be there one or two of them is going to play. Well, it's just not easy to get into the NFL and play. I would assume Joe Burrows get to because he's in an NFL system. He's been doing very well. I don't know if that guy is ready yet. Maybe he will develop and want to over this offseason or something like that. Or maybe I'm missing something which could be true because Pac-12 never on television, but it just every time I see him. I don't go like oh, yeah, that guy's an NFL quarterback Sam on a lot of these mocks have him going to the Chargers and you wonder if like the the step from Philip Rivers to him if people aren't going to be as patient because it's like, you know, I mean granted Philip never won a Super Bowl or anything, but he was he was very good for a very long time. Talking about him come to the Colts now solid. Oh Todd doesn't like it. I don't mind it. I love it. I don't mind it at all Indianapolis. Great place for a family. Bring all 40 kids that come on out here good cost of living. I think he Philip Rivers in Indianapolis have a hilarious history because back in the day. The reason why I got drafted is because the Chargers beat the Colts a lot because of field position Mike ciphers ciphers. Yeah. My almond Mike ciphers had like the greatest game in the history of punters in this play. AFC Championship game I think her AFC divisional round. He had like six months. He might have averaged 95, but I'm insane and every single one was inside the five. They got rid of Hunter Smith after that game. I got brought in immediately because of that but Philip Rivers and Indianapolis have quite a relationship and I think once they learn about Philip Rivers how he like he doesn't swear, although he is chirpy which he talked a lot during games, which is awesome. He never swears. He has great history likes work ethic that crying in the press conference. I think Indianapolis could sell him like I liked I Philip Rivers would be very much welcomed in this city. I just don't know you look like he was throwing some Med balls. Oh, yeah, you look you look like sometimes there's get a little bit heavy there this year and maybe I was wrong maybe I wasn't watching right things, but it'll be cold at Philip Rivers. Jacobi's qbr was twenty third in the league Rivers was 24th. So I don't understand what was like the worst year ever has ever had. Yeah. Well, I mean if you bring rivers in though, you're giving up you're giving up on Jacoby for sure like this. It's hard for him to come back after. If you bring in you say it's hard for Jacoby come back if he gets bench for Philip Rivers. Yeah. Why take a shot Philip Rivers like that? I'm not you did. I'm just saying if I were a she has confidence in you don't bring in Philip Rivers. No, because then you're bringing in an actual starter like Philip Rivers isn't gonna be there to be a bat. No, Philip Rivers is like majan him as a backup, by the way, ah the amount of talk to the starting defense if he was running scout team and practice would be out of control. He's not coming to be a bad. No, no, no was enough teams. I would assume that would use him. He's probably gonna have to I don't know if Philip Rivers gonna do it's interesting it is Interesting Curtis Ballard has an interesting decision Indianapolis. Very interesting. You could draft guy. He's got nine draft picks this year. He can move Chris Ballard can move in the draft if he wants we'll talk about a guy who's think about moving in or out of the draft to in a little bit plus the rest of these NFL games that we didn't get to about the locks and we have like Philadelphia by the way. Mmm-hmm like Philadelphia by the way home dog. He's got dude. I like Philadelphia. By the way. I like New Orleans and I like Euston the lines of moved a little bit New England was four and a half now they're mine. Is five and a half Houston went from three to two and a half Norland went from eight to seven and a half. I could be wrong. I've been on a heater black could be wrong. I don't know. I got people tweeting me there were like I've made so much money off of your bets and just fading you like that's now you have not yet. No, I understand. That's just like standard internet chirping this but that is just not accurate. Like I've I have raked in from vandals and sure they're paying us a lot of money. I've seen the account and I enjoy Not exactly. I think I think they probably have like list of people that are hot right now or in whatever. I'm probably up there near the top of the like, who is that that's a guy we're paying the be frozen you out a couple. Yeah. It's a little bit it is taking a little bit to get in gambling. It's the worst vandals the bus stop. Oh, yeah, that's fast. There's so many ways to win on there there really? Is there so many little Wagers if you just almost too many and you start looking at those plus like 3,000 plus 20 3501 be like yeah, dude. I will drop a little past that guy little Hideout screen for the tackles. You know, what happened to him. He better Christmas Day LeBron have a triple double LeBron missed it by one rebound one rebound, huh? Oh my God. It was I was a plus plus 750 Ono's 357 fault did the Braun said it was it was a bronze fought there was one there was a rebound with 30 seconds left that he just let out screws. So grass goddamnit LeBron don't think you're a lot of safety. I don't think there's any way you're allowed to say what you just said. No, you can't shunned the holy. Hey Don did that just get dumped I soon. I think that's a No-No. That's a No-No. He said no damn. It is fine. I just can't use the Todd is mine. Just placing those two together in that particular order. I don't think you go the opposite order. Damn it God. Yeah. Yeah because he he or she did something there where you're okay. Yeah like Alex Jones Hamilton you want and saw that the other day I did. How was it you feel cultured? I've been really. Hamilton's touring now and I don't know they're probably making a bazillion. He got F Squad. Yeah. Well, it doesn't matter. They're all good. I was saw the Book of Mormon when it came to the Indianapolis, which is probably like the Z Squad by the time it was on still good still fun. It was amazing and you learn something in there. Yeah, George Washington loved ladies. Really? Yeah. I didn't learn that from that movie from that show. I might get confused who George was. Yeah. I think a lot of them Zito going to have that might be a series and of itself zero. No going to high society reviewing it. Did you dress up? Yeah, I hadn't had on the he was eating his breakfast sandwich this morning with a fork and a knife. Well because I don't need bread anymore. It's right accountabilibuddy is 2020. They are you shaving me. Yeah, you know, I'm just why are you body shaming is either dude? He's coming to Hamilton. He's eating a sandwich has with a fork and a knife now. It's impressive with him. It's a compliment Nick Nick lives on a train track. Smart plug your exit. I mean the people living there trains it happens. If you live near train, that's not my backyard. You're actually like one of those train track kids right now take a hike. I respect that right after this. I'm listening to this podcast while laying in my bed next to my half-naked fiance.

We're being joined Now by a guy who played 11 years in Cleveland and All-Pro a first-ballot hall-of-famer to Be from the NFL Network and the tomahawk podcast Joe Thomas. What up Jo? Patrick thank you so much for having me on Pleasures all mine. Hey, sorry about that loss last night for Wisconsin to Oregon. I see you're wearing your Badgers gear there. I mean, I don't love what happened to you guys yesterday. Yeah, that one's things a little bit to lose the Rose Bowl by point in the game that you feel like you just outplayed Him in all three phases outside of the stupid mistakes. You made the turn overs as an offensive lineman who loves the dirty ugly nasty games of Seven to five field goal safety, no turnovers. No penalties. That was a hard one to swallow as a badger fan. I think I might as well just let you have it. Let you do it too. How about your partner? Just dropping the ball and I were to and losing the game. Well, that's another reason why the punters and kickers should be eliminated from the sport because when they ruined the game and they ruin my happiness, it's just unacceptable. They're too small of a part there too wimpy of people to be putting the game on their shoulders and to be putting my happiness in their hands. It's just not okay. I mean warranted in that particular case ball slipped out of his head, but I can respect the Meathead and you understanding that all the other things happen for that to occur in change. The game is a bit of a bummer for the guy feel terrible for me. He's gonna live with that forever. Let's move forward now Cleveland Browns are getting zero takers on the bait that the throwing out there for the head coaching gig who would want to be the head coach for the Browns and why aren't you potentially going to be the head coach of the Browns? Well, I think this might be I'm too busy make a spoiler alert. Then I'm throwing my hat in and I'd like to be the next coach of the Cleveland Browns. The last moment they have to overturn and I'm ready to take on the challenge. Okay, so there's been word out this morning from Bruce Feldman who dig says by all accounts in the college football world is in the know with the right people. He's saying that Urban Meyer is somebody that they are very much thinking about courting and trying to get that gig Urban is still beloved in Ohio from what he did at Ohio State is that the right guy who could potentially come in get the discipline for the team fun to write offensive coordinator right this defensive. Later in turn the Browns organization around which is what has seemed to be about. I don't know 75 years of failure together. There's been a lot of years of failure. Probably not quite 75, but right up in the 60s, I think Urban Meyer, I'll give you the quick pros and cons on him Pro great leader. Great with this the plan toughness building that winning culture. And so I think as far as that side of it goes they're really lacking that and that's a big reason why Fred he's not the head coach anymore. You need somebody with a big personality. Going to command respect who's going to demand it from his players. He's going to get a lot out of his players and he's going to be able to take all those big Personalities in the Browns and get them to play together as one for common goal. So as far as leadership building a winning culture, he's excellent. The thing that I would say is as big as Khan as he's never worked in the NFL fan, so he doesn't have the contacts that he's worked with that have NFL experience to be able to hire a staff and I think one of the most important and sort of underrated parts of being a head coach is building out that staff not only your coordinators, but all those assistants that are going to be working one-on-one with those players on a daily basis. You got to be able to put together a good staff that has some type of NFL experience because the game is different from college to the NFL and a head coaches. I think you can make that bridge in that jump in today's NFL if your have some type of NFL experience if you've worked with a bunch of guys that have NFL experience so that you can hire those guys but Urban being a guy that has never worked in the NFL. And have co-workers that have worked in the NFL. So if he makes that jump he's going to have to hire a bunch of guys that either all college background that he's worked with or you're going to have to just hire a whole staff of guys that you depend on interviews or recommendations from other people. And so I think if you fill out a staff the best staffs are going to be filled out with guys that you've worked with that you trust that you know, how they're going to act in their how they're going to coach guys on a day-to-day basis. Well, those guys also know your mess. Judge, if they've been with you before who's been coaching for a long time, it's going to be hard for urban and Dodge dip dive duck. ER Dodge his way into a new coaching strategy. If you bring somebody in it's different than his philosophy. Do you think that's more from a way they handle the humans or the way, they handle the football aspect a difference between the NFL and college when it comes to these coaches. What's both and that's why it's so important is because both those factors play into it and you're going from coaching a bunch of 18 19 20 year olds that have no money and you own them based on. You give them a scholarship so they have to listen to you. When you're a college coach in the NFL every single one of these dudes make way more money than you they have families. They've been doing this a long time. Then at that point have a lot more experience in the NFL game than you do. And so it's harder to get the respect of NFL players. You have to prove it to them in the meeting room that you know what you're talking about and you're going to give them good coaching from a technique and from the scheme standpoint. You're going to put them in the best position to succeed. That's how you gain respect if you Not have it with number of years in the NFL and also from a scheme standpoint. It is different in the NFL everyone talks about NFL schemes. And now there are some college schemes like the rpos and the Zone reads that are carrying over to the NFL game. But largely it's still there's a lot of pro cell offenses and there's a lot different schemes on defense that just you don't see in the college game. Who's the right code for that kid? Everybody thinks McDaniels are McCarthy McCarthy is a very intriguing component because he's been there done that has had success would have the instant credibility. He with that locker room. I'd assume because he's worked with Montana Brett Favre Aaron Rodgers. Is that somebody you see emerging as a candidate or who else? Yeah, certainly. I think McCarthy's going to be a finalist. He's won a Super Bowl. So he's got that experience. He's a proven leader. He's sort of a tough guy, which is I think what they're looking for with this roster of young talented players that kind of need some professionalism some guidance some discipline. I think the concern is going to be the the my the two things I would say are the McCarthy Concerns is his last couple years in Green Bay. There was a perception that he got a little bit comfortable after being there a long time. But then also there was a concern that his offense maybe got a little bit stale towards the end and he was relying on maybe older Concepts, but it seems like with this year that he's been away from football. He's kind of gone back and maybe he's Revisited as often as and been able to incorporate some of the new Styles and New Concepts that you're seeing in the program now and as far as McDaniels goes, I think his Is he's probably one of the smartest offensive Minds in today's games working. Tom Brady was Bill Belichick a long time. He also has head coaching experience the big- that I would say when you're talking about McDaniels in the question mark with him is he really has only worked one year of his life for anybody besides Bill Belichick except for he worked one year, I think as an intern for Michigan State with Nick Saban why when you get out of college, but other than that, it's all been under Bill Belichick and what we've seen primarily from Bill Belichick. Disciples has been failure. But all the guys that have left have tried to become Bill Belichick and there's something that you miss you just try to become somebody else. So the question form again is is can he be his own guy if he gets another chance as a head coach a couple quick things here before our heart out here. We appreciate Joe Thomas coming on one of the best football players to ever exist. You were there when Mangini came into Cleveland I heard that was an utter abysmal failure. Is that accurate? Well, I wouldn't say that exactly I would say that he made Everybody's life from the people that work behind the kitchen counter to the sky. helps to the goal and we always said that he thought of every way to make your life horrible weather be replacing the nice comfortable cottony Cottonelle toilet paper with the rough stuff that you find in any generic public bathroom to just the way that he wouldn't let anybody at practice except for the players and I think he'd go out like this divide between the players and the rest of the people in the building, but I will say I learned a lot Not from there. I thought he was annexed smart tough coach that now that I've had some time away and I'm sure you've all had people like that whether it be coaches or teachers that at the time you didn't like that tough coaching that discipline that they instilled but you feel like now that you have a chance to reflect your better because of it hate me now love me later. I felt like that with Rich Rodriguez. Actually, he's a lunatic of a man, but I needed him in my life whenever it was there. He went too far on numerous occasions. I think that's what he was saying, but that's one of those guys I look back where I'm like, I'm For that I would I have that in my back pocket if things do get hard on like I could survive that now last question here before we let you go Tomahawk show need to download a great podcast good conversation. Watch on NFL Network. Good brain who's going to win a Super Bowl and how much should I bet on it? Yeah, that's a great question. I think right now you got a good option to bet Patriots. Everybody's down on them right now. They're kind of sliding into the playoffs. I think back to the Giants River when the Giants played the Patriots the last game of the season when the Patriots were undefeated Patriots won that game, but the Giants got that confidence from plan right up to the Buzzard plane in that wild-card game and they got hot. Nobody has more experience in the playoffs in the Patriots. their backs are against the wall nobody's believing him and it seems like that's when Brady always plays the best and I think you're going to have good odds if you take him right now to win the Super Bowl I think it's plus twelve hundred right now if you bit the Patriots so I mean odds are fantastic Joe Thomas odds are you're not only going to be a first-ballot hall-of-famer football player but also in this media world we appreciate the hell out of you ladies and gentlemen Wisconsin Badger Cleveland Brown Joe Thomas thank you Joe hey appreciate guys thanks for having me on have a good one he's got good brain that talk about Tom Brady that's why I like in the first hour you heard me like backing off of betting on the Titans it's like I don't know of mad because it's so hard to go against everything inside you that says this is the Patriots this is still Tom Brady this is no Bill Belichick in this is still the playoffs but Mike Vrabel willing to do anything whatever it takes to win that's an intriguing game this week yeah there's that side of then there's a side like that your eyes see all year long like this offense it stinks it's not News came out yesterday the to ah Tong of Allah. That's right. Yeah right there to atone. Villa will make his announcement on whether he's going back to Alabama or going to the NFL on January 6th. Just a year ago. People were saying that the Alabama football team could beat an NFL team because of how good to a was as a quarterback. People are saying that now those people obviously we all know No now January 2nd 2020 are buffoons the things that a college football team to beat an NFL team, but that's what to a did to the football sporting world. He captivated everybody in the football World this little Lefty from the island comes over to Alabama in his freshman season comes in at halftime plays hero wins a national championship goes on to be a disgustingly talented quarterback and then this year yet again the same conversation. Miami Dolphins are making moves in the offseason. They was said that the team was tanking strictly for this guy. That's how good of a quarterback he was now here. We sit January 2nd 2020 after Alabama beats, Michigan just yesterday in a bowl game. That wasn't the college football playoff in the conversation is is to a going to leave for the NFL when an organization at the beginning of the season was tanking for him or is he going to go back to college now to has had four surgeries and two years. Is that alarming? Oh yes to us seems to be a bit undersized. Does that alarming yes to also seems to be one of the most accurate pastors that maybe college football has ever seen to also seems to be a guy that wants to take care of his family big family man. They say his brother now is a quarterback at Alabama. I think if I'm too I'm going to the NFL faster than you could say the letters NFL. Yes, you've had four surgeries in two years what happens if you go back to Alabama and you have another surgery, you know, what happens in an NFL is GM's eyes that's already happening. It's like wait can this guy be a franchise quarterback? Will he be able to survive in NFL season that's longer with bigger players more athletic players in systems that could potentially set you up to get hit just a little bit more than you are at Alabama behind the best offensive line. And all the weapons if you have a chance to still be a first-round draft pick which by all accounts everybody's saying to is still a first-round draft pick for surgeries two years. He's still a first rounder if you have a chance to be a first rounder and any sport and you can do that you go ahead and do that. Let me tell you why the NFL might not be around for to a year from now the NFL might not be around for two of five years from now, but you know, what will always be around a degree from a university. Versity at all times. So anytime you hear a player think like I'm gonna come back and get that degree. I'm like do that 10 years from now go ahead and get that money right now because if tool gets hurt again next year like you did these past couple years. I don't know if he's still a first rounder strictly because not because of his ability, but because of his availability that is a real thing in the NFL if to is still first runner, he has to go and I hope that's what he says on January 6th right after his injury the conversation on why he could go or not go was because He may follow to the second or third round. But Ivory mock draft you look at right now has some still going top five top ten those mock drafts, by the way. I don't think her actual GM's be no. No, I know that. I don't know if I'm a GM. I'm not drafting him in the first round. He's not going to be if you're a first round draft pick is a quarterback your franchise player. You are the franchise player at some point whether it's this year or years down the road the way this Miami situation is shaping up though seems like a perfect situation. You still got Ryan fits magic Fitzpatrick who can go into fuck. S burrow in week 17 in a must-win game for the Patriots and get a dolphin's team. That only has four wins on the ear. Aw let to a sit behind him get healthy learn from him. I think that is a perfect set up a perfect transition for to and I think that I don't know if it's going to get any better than that if he comes back and gets hurt. I just don't see how you could draft him to be your friend. Chai's guy. He's undersized. He's always hurt. There's a lot of question marks there right now. They're still like the I was a Hip injury was like that's going to happen. His ankles had been fixed like those are things but right now and I just I think he has to go. I honestly think he has to go and I am not a part of the tongue of a low family tongue of Aloha. What is it? Is that it he gets tagged of all of my lower tag of talk of a lot talk of Aloha. I dropped a shocker. I'm getting married in Hawaii love the island big fan. If I'm a part of that family though. I'm pushing him out of Alabama as fast as I can anything go Try to get as much money as we can right now and take your time getting healthy with hopefully I mean granted I assume the Alabama medical staff is better than most NFL teams, but it's one of those things where kid got to get healthy and hopefully does it say what more does he have to prove actual? Yeah and what a national chain like maybe if he if he wants to go back and try to win a Heisman but like that that's not going to do anything else for his draft stock. I think people pretty much know what he is right now in the question is whether or not he can stay healthy. He's doing this all with his non-dominant arm doesn't get talked about Now what if he sits out next year for them to rehab and they put the ball back in his right on there? Like let's get you back later dominar. He's a both armed quarterback David actress ambidextrous quarterback in the NFL. That would be hilarious. That's how bleep also this year his competition as far as getting drafted as jobber. Oh, that's it next year. It's Trevor Lawrence. Justin Fields. There's always another quarterback the pops up. There's a young guy from USC who's apparently supposed to go very high. He has to go and let's assume Alabama has another five star quarterback - brother. Where is he a family man loved his brother gets a shot. Let's go to Gino and Pittsburgh Juno. What's up, Bob? A challenge a maxi for taking that decade long vacation. Anthony's attitude all the time. He wants to get a pinky ring that guy while and now I can't take it. Fight them with a pinky ring on the show. I watch another fornicatin episode. That's how you that right now. I think you're wrong. They are better than what we go skiing week. If we go 18 week send the Chargers over to Great Britain or whatever overseas. How do you feel about having back-to-back by week? So they can have that week come home get adjusted to the American lifestyle again, and then finish off the season. That's what it is. It's not the time. It's the American lifestyle that they're not used to have to coming back. That's not too pinky. Ring was not warranted. By the way. I mean a pinky ring if I could wear one if my skin tone was just one One Tone darker. If I had the southern Italy olive skin instead of my .01% Northern Italian Irish German skin. I would rock a pinky ring faster than you could say pinky. Where was that dude from that? Work I understand what happened then what happened? I mean, he's probably he's probably polish or something like that and his family just loves Italians like so that's so they named him Gino but he has no idea what to do as a fake Italian. All right. So for those that are just listening to show the guy it's leaking right there. His name is Anthony de gallo. He's from Pittsburgh as is Franklin. Morale dough we grew up in a town that is 97% Italians and on it watch your mouth. I just found out I was born old. 1% Italian to the 23andMe a year ago. I'd go on an apology tour for all the things that I've said about the Italians great people great food beautiful culture. Just some of the most despicable acts in the history of mankind. I think I'm from a science. They realize this is a pro pinky ring show. I am a bit. Yeah. I'm a pinky ring Pro. Yeah, I've out of all the things you could bash Italian sports not too pink, you know, you should go for it gets middle finger rings, correct? Yes, and let's go back to the NFL. No, I don't think it's going to be It is going to be 18 weeks. I think it's going to be 17. No, I think it should be 19 weeks actually don't think it's going to be 18 weeks. I think it's going to be 17 games two. Bye weeks. I think every team is going to have a neutral site game. Do I think that should be overseas in Europe? I agree. That could be a spot. Canada should be a spot Mexico should be a spot. I think they should even get in Australia because there's a lot of Australians playing in games. I think there should definitely be a bye week after that game. I believe the NFL is going to go to a 17 game schedule to buy we X1 neutral site / and I think that is coming next year per the new CBA and I'm excited for it to be honest because now the football is kind of wrapping up I am getting very nervous about what the hell we're going to talk about. Yeah, and what the hell we're going to do without the NFL. I'm already kind of getting like the Sunday scary's when it comes to know NFL next year. There should be an extra couple weeks, which is exciting. Yeah. So let me just make sense. No team can be over there though. No team is going to be able to be over there. Now does the NFL probably want that? I'd assume that they do because having a team in Another country obviously opens up the fan base and opens up eyes that one-off events can't obviously open up the eyes of but if we're going to have an international team, we've said this already give it to Canada. I think Canada deserves it I think after watching what the Toronto Raptors were able to do whenever they won the NBA championship in the entire country became they became the Canadian Raptors. I mean, that's awesome. If we get that the NFL I think they deserve a team before Europe does just because not that the love hasn't been there in Europe because they fill out their stay idioms Wembley was awesome. I got a chance to go over there. I got a chance to be a part of the what's that thing where you stand on stage and pep rally in middle of London. They reported like 900,000 people are there. I'm not a hundred possessions that is accurate. But there's a lot of Support over there. I just think logistically having a team over there is going to be very very difficult and until they can figure out time travel or jet packs like Elon Musk. I don't think it's going to be possible to have a team-based there, but I don't mind more games going over there because I think it's good for the business know based on the Sure that you see when they go to Mexico and just the fans, you know that Canada has for the NFL if a team in London got it before those two places. I think that would be wrong. I can be rude heavy rain we have L is never rude. No, no now look at Jerry Jones, you won't even let go of a coach right now because he's part of the family. Yep. The NFL is the last thing rude it would never be rude. I mean can't it doesn't have anything else like London has you kidding me? Why you taking shots at him? Yeah. We're pretty large up in Canada. Yeah, they know. But they know that they don't have much else. Yeah, the NBA and the NHL their the national the reigning NBA champion it won t matter what the NHL they got that Ottawa team. Then I am yeah cow Gary. Tell Gary. Thank you Minato by things as a team Winnipeg Detroit hockey pound Hartford. We should trade the truth though to Canada. All right, maybe they get the Lions maybe to get the light Lulu. That's good. Yeah, I don't hate that. Actually. Wow. Wow. Ox guys, they're never going to win a Super Bowl in Detroit your change some things I can still be Alliance van. Oh, so you think it's Detroit United States? That is the problem. You know, you don't think Detroit Canada you think that would be the answer. I mean, there's a lot of problems but I haven't Canada behind Detroit would be awesome. It would be cool to have can the behind Detroit Canada is a great place. By the way with good people ready to roll that Toronto City. I love that place was not so clean two times in the last month or two months or so beautiful beautiful beautiful Whopper. Give him a team the Canadian American footballers, that'd be good. But in Toronto where they have the BC Lions will just have the BC lines of the NFL. The British Columbia lines. Is that a Canadian football league to do they have a soccer league up there something they still pay taxes to the queen, right? Yeah. Yeah. I still pay taxes to Queen. So the queen will be invested in the NFL which would be good. So basic. So facto Canada gets a team England gets a team right two birds one stone. Look at that. We just took care of Europe and Canada. You're welcome. You are welcome, January 2nd 2020. That is the date that nobody would have expected. In Garrett to still be the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys joining us now beat writer from the athletic for the Dallas Cowboys. Mr. John Machado. Mr. John michell showed up. How's it going guys? Excellent. How are you boss man, appreciate the time. Let's get to it here because we got about six minutes left the conversation about Jason. Garrett has been one that's been relatively negative from everywhere. I don't know how it is in Dallas, but outside of Dallas and Jerry Jones said at the Salvation Army event on good morning football that the the what he is expecting from Jason. There's this thing that is very difficult this task that is impossible to win the Super Bowl and that's what his expectations are. Jason. Garrett has been nowhere near that for his entire career here. We are January 2nd. He still head coach. What is going on down there between Jerry and Jason Garrett, you know, the biggest thing is that it's not like it's just another head coach to Jerry Jones. He just he's been around Jason Jason Garrett's father was a scout in the organization for a long time. He's known Jason from the time. He was a player and then obviously, An assistant and now for these men and half years as head coach and he really does look at them as like almost another son. I mean, they're extremely close and I think he's having a hard time parting ways with him. But ultimately that's what's going to happen. He there's just no way that he could keep him give him a contract extension after you know, I mean, that's these last nine years. They've missed the playoffs six times and you know, it'd be one thing if his team was just decimated by injuries and you know, there are outside circumstances that factored into this season, but Came down to they had a relatively healthy lineup for almost the entire season DEC 4 SC really didn't deal with injury until the very end of the year their schedule ended up being a lot easier than it was when it was originally thought and and they just they didn't play like the teams that we've even seen from Jason Garrett teams in the past and because of that it just didn't come close to what the goal was supposed to be. The goal was supposed to be not only when the division in the playoffs but it was at least get to the NFC championship game and the fall this far short and just go eight and a for the fourth time. I just there's just no way that can bring him. Back so Jason Garrett a bad son because he's letting down the family business on such a regular basis and refuses to step away. You could look at it that way for sure. I just he's not going to step away and so he's told he has to leave because it's absolutely his dream job. There's nothing he wants to do more than coach the Dallas Cowboys and you know, you mentioned the beginning about how is there any you know any positive about him down a day out? There's not and hasn't been for a long time. This isn't like, you know, especially with the fans. It's like The feeling down here down the stretch of this season. Was it got to the point where fans were like man? I hope they don't just sneak into the playoffs and then spending my keep Jason Garrett. It was like if we have to lose to the Eagles, it says seal the deal and know that we'll get a new head coach. Let's do that. That's fine. And then they're just as there's nobody there's nobody that that is a fan of this team that wants to keep going in this direction and and I'm originally from Detroit. I've always told people down here. I think Jason Garrett is a fine head coach for the Detroit Lions once in a while, you might go to the playoffs. You're never really an embarrassment. But this is a Dallas Cowboys. You have to be able to compete for Super Bowls and I just don't know anybody can iI say that he's gotten them close to that and these nine and a half years Detroit didn't deserve this their coach can definitely be an embarrassment that happens on a very regular basis. Jasonncaryn is not I mean, I guess Jason Garrett is underwhelmed everybody in particular each and every single year. Now, there is a lot of rumors that were floating around there that some of the other coaches were told to seek other Jobs and do things like that and some people are still under contract. Is it going to get messy with half of the department potentially still having contract? And in other people looking for other jobs? If is there any chance Jason Garrett is retained and what happens with all the other coaches. Yeah. I don't see any any way that he's retained and in terms of the other coaches if this was any other organization, I would say that they're all gone and that they're just going to let the new head coach hires entire staff on his own but I mean, this is an organization that you know, they had Jason Garrett and play. Before they had as the OSI before they you know hired we'll wait Phelps is the head coach. So there's a part of me that believes that I can't rule out them trying to keep telling more joy as though see your jacket has as quarterback coach parts of possibly Mark Colombo with the offensive line coach. It depends on you know, what that new head coach wants but I could see there being a few guys that you know, Jerry Jones really liked it. He'd like the new head coach to keep but again, I believe that that's a problem. I don't think that it should be run that way. Your next head coach to be able to hire his entire staff the most success at the Dallas Cowboys have had since Jerry Jones is on the team is when he allowed that to happen with Jimmie Johnson. So you would hope that that that's a Direction they go but because you know, Jerry Jones and his past I can't say that all of them are gone, but I would think at the very least almost all of them are gone. All right. Thank you so much. Ladies and gentlemen, John Machado read his words at the athletic for the Dallas Cowboys. That was great the thought that head coaches. Don't get a chance to pick their own accord. Mater's is just hilarious because in a thought that they would keep anybody including Kellen Moore is also layers because Jerry Jones came out and said well they were just out coach today, you know, and that means All Phases there that's all sides of the ball. I think he said that on numerous occasions. I don't know how anybody sticks around I have no idea how anybody stays and if you're delaying The Break-Up who you making it worse for yourself for the other person well, and if you're trying to get a guy like Lincoln Riley don't you want an entire new culture coming in there? You don't want like bits and pieces from the previous regime sticking around like that. Gets messy. Well the classic like well how we used to do it? Right? That's like Hugh Jackson whenever whenever Haley when Todd Haley came in was like well the way we do it around here. Yeah, we are 1 and 31 or by the way Hugh Jackson was on the show completely different opinion of him. He's slinging tequila. He's getting back in the NFL but he did not look good on Hard Knocks, but that is weird whenever you have like the potential for the way we used to do. It was like, well, nobody cares Chris that is now out. The door it's my way now grandpa. Someone said on the get up this morning. And I there Jerry could take his time because he knows Lincoln Riley if that's his number one Prospect is not going to go to any of the other teams if he's gonna go to the NFL it's going to be the Dallas Cowboys. So Urban Meyer potential to a bronze. Ron Rivera was hired to the Redskins with Jack Del Rio who the Carolina Panthers going to get pissed if Urban goes around so you consider that a bad look for the Cowboys now Charlie Brown told the couple's I think him and Ohio is where Urban Meyer.

The biggest news is a former NBA Commissioner David Stern passed away yesterday at the age of 77 during his 30 year rains during revamp the drug policy oversaw Global expansion. Action transform the NBA the multi-billion dollar Corporation. However, his tenure was marred by countless controversies such as the mouse in the palace three different lockouts Tim Donaghy and the Donald Sterling scandals. See I think you should have done those come on in Reverse. I think you should then the bad stuff early then the good stuff at the end so we could properly like say like, you know, what good stuff. Let's do a moment silence, but now we have to talk around the stuff that you buried him for know you take the good with the bad the bad comes last. Well, I think he did a lot more good than bad for the MBA and I think I didn't know much about David Stern grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, which is a hockey town. We didn't watch much MBA but now as you're listening to these stories unfold about David Stern sounds like he was a very ruthless businessman. That was also very funny and lovable in the sport of basketball is very thankful for him. Let's have a moment of silence for David Stern. Todd's talking to somebody on the phone. I mean Todd but recipes David Stern honestly truly very thankful for what he did for the NBA Eminem be a guy big fan of that now recipes to him, but boy, I mean the way you delivered that knits I was wild and was why I married him. Yeah, he did. I mean, I didn't write that. I was copy and paste headline. Well, maybe you should have looked at that way. You know, it's very accurate. I mean, we understand nobody's saying it was inaccurate what we're saying. Though is the way you delivered. It was just I'm not here to inject bias into this. You didn't know I'm delivering this new straightforward structure now, but there is bias in it, by the way that you deliver and that's that's what people don't understand. That's kind of the news. You're kind of a part of the problem. Actually now that I think about it, you are part of the problem. I think you need to know some good things he's done but also some bad things while we understand that we're just talking about. Hey, you did it. I didn't he didn't he didn't he didn't go to the stands and fight the crowd now, what do you want him to do? Smile smile, but the way you spun that is just classic 2020 now news bad people die all the time. Oh so good. People die. All the time that's is not play here with David Stern. There's a lot more people saying David turns a good person that does play there for our English teacher at her High School where they wanted me to write something nice about her and I responded with that quote right there.

I saw that by the way now I've heard that you're supposed and now I saw the video and I left very very hard. Sam was telling me my fiance that there used to be a ring that you kiss on the pump. Yeah, but this Pope is not down with the with the kids. Yeah, he's not down with the Kiss the Ring thing. So was that lady attempting to kiss his ring and he gave her a couple kick. Not you lady. You don't give her the lady who got slapped or it slides in hand. Let's okay. She was well ya see the pope didn't smack across there was but she was getting pumped like she was doing her all the Hail Marys and stuff like that for like six minutes before he right before he got to her. He decided he touched his last hand and And she did not enjoy that - you really want me to try to rip his arm off. Oh my in the security. He's got seven security guards are just watching the pope handle his own business like trying to grab a stray dog or something when he's not looking. Yeah it is. It was like you trying to chase down Walt with his with his collar off or whatever. Yeah. I don't think that's exactly what he's ripped over there not happy. I mean the publishes he's fed up with it. Listen to Pope's tired of you praying to him. Okay, the Pope's tired of you trying to touch him, especially when he's going to the other aisle to give high fives over there. I respect it. What do you do? If you are you supposed to touch the pope like with the queen you're not supposed to touch her. She supposed to touch you he was touching. Yeah, you can't be grabbing the pope though. You let him come to you. You can't be snagging them. Are you a Catholic? Oh, yeah. You are a Catholic. Yes, sir. Okay. So the pope is the guy in the Catholic Christian King Top Dog Top Dog the popemobile the whole thing. Yeah. All right. Would you want to touch him if you saw him? Yeah. Oh, yeah for sure. I wanna grow and try to put them in a Kimura and take his arm home with if he's a double recipe right here. I'm sorry anything else? Last thing here mysterious drones have been flying over Colorado and Nebraska in recent weeks and authorities can't figure out why or who's behind it that there was also a rocket on the shore of Florida New Year's Eve now. That is an unidentified rocket. You see that thing? Okay after the aliens 2020s the year. They're here like a NASA rocket or a missile rocket. I just saw the headline in the picture. It looked like it was like a it holds people in it. Yeah. Okay look like does he land claim that yet. Now he has in there was no scheduled anything. So that's the issue now granted. I do not read. That's the headline so I could be completely wrong here. But it sounds like Elon Musk is no longer the only alien on planet Earth in 2020 and for that I'm very excited. I thought I was just um, possibly a jetpack you thought it was a little thicker with fire underneath it. I don't know if we have the we have the put it up on the thing for the people watching. Yeah. Oh, yeah, it had a double exhaust fire flames and it looks like it's potentially a jetpack, but it's been on identified in nobody knows what it is Ben. That's experimental. You think I enjoy experimenting we in technology gonna remember there's white trash aliens out there to who might be just skipping around in the universe and they just landed here trying to get back home. Let's we always assume that these aliens are much smarter and much more everything than us. But let's assume that somewhere out there. There's people that are dumber than us that are just be-bopping around the universe and could have potentially floated in through one of the holes that Elon Musk punctures in our Whatchamacallit ozone layer atmosphere and got in there. I'm excited for the fact that we're going to meet Aliens do if you're President Trump, by the way for Donald Trump. But like a week before election day, you just kind of unravel it all release the tapes. Oh, you're teasing teasing you tease you tease it why I can't believe a president hasn't done that and then I would sign up to vote immediately. That's what I'm saying. Like I can't that's a that's an ace in the in the back pocket at all times like Oh, Hey, listen, you vote me back in Alien is 51. Yeah. So the people that want to run like the lunatics don't have to actually do it themselves. I don't know about hammering the Titans. No, honestly. No way. There's no way I don't think your Hammer but it's pretty cool. Don't do it. I think Frank was the guy by the way, if anybody was to do I think variables the guy that video that hit the internet of him as a head coach in the National Football League interacting with a player as if he's still playing in the league probably better than the guy that he's talking to. I don't even know who you are. Then asked Sly manner to somebody else who the fornicate is that do you want I love rabal he was on busting with the Always do we have that clip from Boston with the boys he was on busting with the boys this past offseason, which is a podcast at Taylor the one in Will Compton host out of the back of the Dale Earnhardt jr. Bus which is an interesting one. He was on there and he said this would you cut your dick off for a Super Bowl how been married 20 years? Yeah, probably three. That's how much might Vrabel wants to win another Super Bowl. I can't help but respect the The hell out of that the fact that he's obviously been there done that with the Patriots is a massive part of their story and their success makes it a very intriguing thought to hammer the Titans plus 5 and a half but a man it is just it you it's hard to do whenever your body has been taught for the last two decades that this team just does things that you can't fathom them doing it's hard to bet against them and I told myself just weeks ago never bet against the Patriots again. Yeah, I just I mean five and a half if they're going to win. I feel like they're going to win back your stuff down six the Hammers coming out if that thing gets a touchdown. Oh, yeah, you're hammering it I can respect that but boy, don't do it. Don't be a fool. I don't think it's smart. There's so many other games about his three other games right? A lot of ballgames had to cease NBA there's tennis happening. In other parts of the world. I think Cricket is happening. There's a lot of things that you can bet on hockey. I just think there's I mean there's also a lot of a lot of pockets fast Titans on that or sorry a lot of past Patriots on that tightens team. I don't think they're afraid to go into Foxborough. I can respect that. Actually I can respect that. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, you know what's going down right now salmon about to knock some boots ha ha ha. Yeah. Ain't I right?

I thought about this last night while I was watching a couple of the bowl games that were supposed to matter like the Rose Bowl. but that some I mean after the college football playoff, it's like the Rose Bowl should everybody knows that the college football playoff should be eight teams in these other games like the Rose Bowl and other thing should be in the college football playoff because when the Rose Bowl isn't in the college football playoff, I understand that the Rose Bowl is the granddaddy of them all and this massive game and everybody is a child dreamt of being in the game, but it's like I wish they would have made that one of the playoff game so that it was, you know a little bit more spectacular Anderson's Big 10 PAC 12, but whenever they make the college football playoff eight teams five Big Five, French Champions three at-large bids. I hope they end up doing that and I understand it could be tough. But Pasadena is a beautiful place but last night watching that game. Oh my congrats organ. That's awesome with the Roses. But I mean, I felt like I was more much more excited for another bowl game that just happened a bit ago my rod today. I thought they liked the Rose Bowl the Orange Bowl Sugar Bowl stuff like that. They now rotate them. Yeah, if he hasn't there, it has been all the BCS games all the games that used to be BCS games now bounce around for the of all the New Year's Day games though yesterday. That was the one that I was that still felt a little Little bit like I think cause it was just the Rose Bowl still. Yeah, but has a one-point game too. Yeah. It was a good game. There was a lot of hype around it was well called by her be and father. I mean it's a lot of things Rose Bowl is very important. But for me, it's like correct. Yeah, it just lets go. Let's make that a playoff game. They get better. They need to do that going forward once I become a voice or if I become a voice for college football. I'll be hammering that thing pretty hard every you should we need eight teams. Let's go all the Champs three at-large has let's move forward. We don't have the ucf's of the old that Do very well let's give them a shot. Even if they get buzzed side that happened in Oklahoma. I mean this is going to happen. Let's give everybody an opportunity to potentially play to Camp. Well, there it is. The first Friday of the new decade of the new year is over. Now.

The guys also talk Oregon QB Justin Herbert and whether or not he is going to be a successful Quarterback in the NFL, discuss Tua Tagovailoa’s upcoming decision on whether he will stay in college or make the jump for the NFL and if he has anything left to prove in college or if declaring for the draft would be the wise move.

Pat also dives into what he thinks will happen next NFL season in terms of the CBA which involves a 19 week season with 2 byes, and gives a pretty easy solution for dealing with potentially adding international teams.
