Blockbuster Moves: Chiefs' Hopkins Gamble, Shanahan's Strategy Scrutinized, and Quarterback Quandaries Unveiled
Can a conditional sixth-round pick really reshape a team? The Kansas City Chiefs believe so, as they shock the NFL world by acquiring star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins for next to nothing. In our latest episode, we unravel the strategic mystique and potential playoff implications of this blockbuster trade, examining how an undefeated yet offensively challenged team has managed to tip the scales in their favor. Beyond the headlines, we survey the fallout for other teams like the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns and revel in the sheer joy of exhilarated Chiefs fans celebrating their newfound fortune.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan's choices take center stage next, as we dissect the drama surrounding Brandon Ayuk's offseason holdout and the ripple effects of his injury. Shanahan's play-calling decisions face scrutiny, particularly his struggles when trailing in the fourth quarter, leaving us questioning the accountability and expectations placed upon both player and coach. Meanwhile, the drama intensifies with controversies surrounding NFL referees, perceived biases, and the comedic jabs at the Browns' penalty woes, all intertwined with a celebration of team loyalty and the quest for fair officiating.
The quarterback conundrum ignites a fiery debate, from Baker Mayfield's unexpected triumphs to Deshaun Watson's faltering performance. We challenge the wisdom behind Watson's multimillion-dollar contract and wonder if his days as a starter are numbered. In a heartfelt discussion on player safety, Tua's decision to forgo a guardian cap raises critical questions about health and career longevity. As the season unfolds, hear our insights on the highs and lows of NFL fandom, the Dallas Cowboys' inner turmoil, and the anticipation of thrilling matchups on the horizon. Join us as we explore these riveting topics and more, charting a course through the unpredictable, exhilarating world of professional football.
The Power of the Power, of the Power of the Power of look who it is. Your dynamic duel is back here in the twofold and we said we was coming on here to talk about, um, the tomfoolery that we just saw this morning. We're doing our recap, but we definitely talked about the tomfoolery that we just saw this morning. We're doing our recap, but we definitely talking about the tomfoolery we saw this morning. It's your boy, tj, dk, dk and Tree Podcast, full effect. But the tomfoolery. If you haven't seen it, the breaking news, the breaking news. The breaking news is look who. It is already Tish. Good morning.
Speaker 1:The breaking news is the Kansas City Chiefs have traded for Dehop right off the break. You wake up in the morning and the Chiefs said, okay, then we got all these people hurt, we gotta get some people in here. So they went and got DeHop. So I love the stat they said this morning. They said DeHop went from 1-6 to 6-0. Already, already, we just starting off with the Chiefs Go ahead, I guess it's your philosophy which you said last week we got to give them press and now we're giving them press. Go ahead, I guess it's your philosophy which you said last week we got to give them press. And now we're giving them press. Go ahead, press them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we're giving them press and I think we're a little bit too little, too late, because we caught them at a time that has put us at a place of just complete obscurity. Because, you know, this whole time everybody's been talking about all these other teams. You know the ravens and detroit and what's going on with san francisco, and you know talk about how people are booing deshaun watson which oh, by the way, I do not blame cleveland fans for just want to put that out there.
Speaker 1:Not at all.
Speaker 2:But all these different things going on and we were talking about the Chiefs as if they're some shitty-ass team. That you know, can't perform, can't do well, and you know we were talking shit about their offense this entire time and the next thing you know they just said you know what, fuck it, let's just get DeAndre Hopkins for a six-round pick. Really, that's all they needed.
Speaker 1:Let's say this again A six-round, a six-round pick.
Speaker 2:And it was conditional. Oh so if something happens, if a supernative happens, it turns into a fifth round Whoop-dee-doo.
Speaker 1:You gave a six-rounder. Oh my God, oh my God.
Speaker 2:Look, y'all are going to have to forgive me in advance. Look, I just want to do some inside of baseball real fast. I currently do not have all of my equipment set up and ready to go, so the sound effects that I would be making right now I would love to make, and that will come soon and very soon. But trust me when I tell you, when I woke up this morning and I saw that notification in my phone, I said man, this is some shit. I can't believe this. This is wild to me, the 6-0 team just got significantly better.
Speaker 2:Everybody should have just left it alone. Should have just left it alone. It's too late now. It's too late now. It's too late now.
Speaker 1:You see, kansas City recognized that. Okay, we have injuries, we have to do something to better ourselves. So we need to do something, but for the capital that they're gaining, right, and they're not really giving much. What is going on with these teams? I don't understand. Look and look.
Speaker 2:I'm frustrated for two reasons. One, you gave a team that's undefeated, that needed help at wide receiver, more ammo, more ammo. And the team that gave him away. That needs draft capital because they suck. They're some shit only got a six-rounder back.
Speaker 1:It was the billion-dollar team, remember it was the billion. I said the billion. See, we could have went down there and got some money. I kept preaching this way before the season started. We could have went down there and got some money. I kept preaching this way before the season started. We could have went down there and got some money.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying so the team that sucks that needs all the draft capital in the world. The best they could have got back was a six-rounder oh, I'm sorry, a conditional six-rounder that may turn into a fifth. Well, actually fuck out of here. This is some travesty, dog. I cannot believe this.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it is a travesty I really have not recovered this morning. I'm like D-hop going to Kansas City.
Speaker 1:Okay, and of course, all my Kansas City fans. They're probably all happy. Yeah, we're getting some more help in here. This is the worst 6-0 team I've ever seen in my life, at least when Brady and them were chopping it up and they were undefeated, right, who'd they come to see? That broke that streak? Baltimore. That's because they really ain't played anybody, right? They really ain't played no one. But now Kansas City said, okay, but remember, we talked about Kansas City's schedule. Look at the rest of their schedule. It favors them, it favors them, it favors them. And all they're doing is just adding little pieces and little pieces and little pieces. Look at Mahomes Leads the league in interceptions, right? Remember, years Kansas City's been known for offense, right? Their offense is struggling. Look who just stepped up their defense. Their defense has stepped up. They're leaving.
Speaker 1:Yeah, cheaters, it's a name, not necessarily a fit. Yeah, rj, I agree with you. I agree with you. Let's see, let me see what's going on. Guys.
Speaker 1:This is Ray from Cleveland. Hey, mr Callaway, I've been looking for you. I've been up here sick of Diamond and Embers. When you're laying back in Cleveland, chop it up. My best friend became a Ravens fan last season because he was tired of dysfunction. Let's just say it. I'm standing on the 480 bridge looking over, and it is my damn self I love shaking my head, so and look at the Ravens and have memories of them being here. I remember I talked to him before because he's a Cleveland up there in Cleveland. Yeah, we don't. I think we all have this thing of we don't like the Chiefs. We don't. They're the New England of this era. Ty good morning. We don't. They're the new england of this era. Tiger morning. They're the new england of this era. And it's like I said, their schedule it favors them right now. Now you're putting d hop in there, right? He's a big receiver, big boy, right? Yeah, so if you throw it to him, is that I don't even want to talk about?
Speaker 1:oh, no, oh no that's the next thing we're going to talk about. That's the next thing we're talking about since you're here since you're finally here, we're going to talk about them next trust me yeah, yeah, you know like it's. It's just crazy of everything that's going on right now. The injury bug has hit week seven. Hard, hard, hard, wait, man not let you log off, come on.
Speaker 2:Oh, you know what, you know what no no no, since we want to do that, let's get her before she logs off. Let's address this elephant in the room. Your San Francisco 49ers stink right now. They stink. You know what? You know what? I got a better one for you. They're stinky. You didn't think I was bringing that shit back, oh my.
Speaker 1:God.
Speaker 2:They're a travesty this year. And then you oh, let's address Brent Naik, the guy all summer long, all offseason long, didn't want to come to camp, didn't want to do workouts, missed all this time and all this other stuff about oh, I want my money and I'm one of the best wide receivers in the game, had the first four games of the season. Wide receivers in the game had the first four games of the season not getting 50 yards receiving. It's weird how that works. Then all of a sudden he gets a little bit productive. Now everybody's like oh, that's the Brandon Iukes that everybody knows. And then week seven happens and you know what? Shout out to his agent because he was able to get a deal done before. Unfortunately, he tore his ACL, mcl and more knee damage.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry. What do you mean? We better not ruin your Tuesday morning. No, no, no, we're not ruining it, oh no, we talking facts?
Speaker 2:Oh, no, no, because I remember, I remember, I remember. I will go back to the episodes of this goddamn podcast. I remember everybody talking about Brandon Ayuk like he was the second coming of Jesus Christ. I remember those conversations, I remember those.
Speaker 1:And, ty, you were adamant. Ayuk is standing for Santa Clara. You were adamant on it. You was like no, he ain't leaving. This is our guy, listen. And I would have been the same way, and passionate with my team too. But it's just, I feel as though, with him being injured and it's getting sad, the guy's career is over for the season. But you know, it's just, he shouldn't have held out. That's, that's just my opinion. I don't think he should have held out. Maybe if he'd have been like he was rusty, but again, with all the major injuries that y'all had, the major injuries y'all had, he should have stepped up. I was, I was, I knew, I knew I was going to say, man, I'm depressed and I mean I would be too. But he shouldn't have held out. He should have said, okay, I'm still getting here, I want my deal, but I'm still getting here at work. And I think he would have been a lot more productive in the season.
Speaker 2:I will say this too, because, as much as I love trolling Brandon Ayuk, I'm trolling the situation, not him the person, not him the player, just the situation. Okay, All trolling aside, can we have some conversations about Kyle Shanahan, the play caller, please?
Speaker 2:Because, this season so far, I've been looking at a lot of head scratching decisions, a lot of head scratching decisions. And you know what? I'm glad you brought that up, ty, because for so many years we have talked about how great Kyle Shanahan is and how well, how clever he is with the play call, and how much it doesn't matter who's on the field, as long as he's coming up with the schemes, as long as he's the chef in the kitchen, the 49ers will win, and they'll win often. Now the conversation has turned into well, they don't have Debo, they don't have McCaffrey, they don't have Kittle. They don't have Jawan Jennings, they don't have Debo, they don't have McCaffrey, they don't have Kittle. They don't have Juwan Jennings, they don't have Bryn Nayyuk, they don't have Jordan Mason, they don't have this, they don't have that. And I just find it very funny how he went from. He is so clever. He is our Lord and Savior, he is all these things.
Speaker 1:Oh, it gets even worse I didn't even go to the defense oh yeah, we didn't go to defense yet moody green law.
Speaker 2:I just find it funny that now, all of a sudden, y'all are struggling and this is what I'm hearing today oh, they don't have this and they don't have that, and if they have this, you know they would be this and they would be that.
Speaker 1:I find that funny.
Speaker 2:I find that funny today. I find that funny. I think we should hold Kyle Shanahan accountable today. I think we should, Especially when you're 0-5 against the team that always seems to have your number 0-5. And you know what? I just thought of this stat. I just thought of this stat too. Did you know that Kyle Shanahan is 0-43 when he's down in the fourth quarter? He hasn't won a game. He has not won a game. Are you serious Trailing in the fourth quarter? He hasn't won a game. He has not won a game. Are you serious trailing in the fourth quarter?
Speaker 1:so what?
Speaker 2:does that mean? So what does that mean? That means every time kyle shanahan is in he is coaching an nfl game, he either has to have a lead or the game has to be close. If it's not the one of those, you lose. Last time I checked if you're in the conversation for being one of the best coaches in the league. That's not the case. I think we should have a little bit more conversation about Kyle Shanahan today.
Speaker 1:I'm just saying not true. We trailed against the lines. I think he said fourth quarter, though Fourth quarter, fourth quarter. I think he said fourth quarter Not the whole game, but the fourth quarter, Not the whole game, just the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2:I said the fourth quarter in particular because that is the time. That is the time that you need to step up. You need to come up with a clever play cause on third down okay so she said before the lions game.
Speaker 1:That was true, but she said we trailed in the fourth with the lions. Okay, but.
Speaker 2:But again, even in that case it was close. It was only a one, it was only a one possession game. So either way, if it's not, if you're, no, I'm sorry, I'm bad, I'm sorry, I got the stat mixed up. If he's down by 10 or more in the fourth quarter, that's his record okay, 10 or more gotcha, so I. So either it's a one possession game or bust. That's it, and he's supposed to be in the conversation for the best.
Speaker 1:We wasn't rooting for the 49ers against the Kansas City Chiefs. Don't think we wasn't rooting. Trust me, I'll be fucking up. I'm not denying that. Yeah, he does, trust me, we were rooting for the 49ers against the Chiefs. I heard this stat this morning and I was like, wow, this is crazy. Mahomes has more interceptions than anyone else in the league. That's right, and he's still winning games.
Speaker 2:Give me a break. Yeah, give me a break.
Speaker 1:That's the thing, not long. Let's not let the refs off the hook now. Let's not let the refs off the hook now. Let's not let the refs off the hook. Sure, oh, it looks like 49 is getting close. Oh, flag, sure, sure.
Speaker 2:We can do that all day long, but you want to know what I've been saying all year.
Speaker 1:If you tear the fur off of them.
Speaker 2:If the game is close thank you, say it for me, because apparently me saying it is not enough.
Speaker 1:If you tear the fur off of them in the beginning, it happens. Yes, make it, make sense, thank you. We preach this all the time with these damn refs, and especially in a Kansas City game. If you're going to call it, call it fair all the way around the board. But man, some of them calls in that game. I was like really, y'all called this Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 2:I can't, y'all can't be surprised.
Speaker 1:Right, I wasn't. I want them to be 17-0 and we go to Kansas City for the AFC Championship. Raven needs to hold Orr accountable with his schemes. I just talked about this, jay, before we came on the air. I just talked about this, jay, I just talked about this, and me and TJ was just talking about this before the air and I'm glad you brought this up I said I don't think it's the players, I think it's the schemes.
Speaker 1:I said when Mike McDonald was there, look at the way he drew everything up. I said, look at him. He was there, look at the way he drew everything up. I said, look at him, he's a first year coordinator. He's not scheming it, right? I just spoke about that.
Speaker 1:Let me see my homes is good, but they're making him hate them, making me hate him. Listen, I was hating them when they started making them do this like this whole brady thing bestie welcome. I was hating Mahomes when they started making him be like Brady and if you just saw this interview, he sat down with Brady and Mahomes sat down and Brady said to him man, I would love to see you make it back to the Super Bowl. He said, because I will be calling that game. That's what Brady said to him. So you don't feel this nostalgia in the air. You don't feel this nostalgia in the air. You don't feel this nostalgia. But, like I said, it was a scheme. But you know, I'm glad. I'm going to go back to Jay's comment for a second. So let's go to our game Tampa Bay. Sure, I think they're going to give him a three-peat.
Speaker 2:No, mm-mm, that road going in Because the irresistible force is about to be the immobile object. You said this last year. You said this last year. You said that last year afc clash me neither.
Speaker 1:But see, yeah, I did. But you see, look at what's going on. Let me go to the tampa bay game with us. Right, absolutely, we, absolutely. We was down 10-0, right, nothing to panic about. Ravens came marching back, no problem, I said okay, cool. But then did you notice we started getting all these flags. We like third in a million, right, because we're getting flags back to back to back to back to back, holding, oh, holding this, oh, pass interference offense. Wait what?
Speaker 2:right right.
Speaker 1:I'm like, look at all these damn flags that they're throwing. But you see, the ravers said, okay, we got something for you, we're just gonna keep tearing the fur off of them. And they did, and they did, and we look in time. We talked about this too. We talked about this one too. I'll be getting to that in a second, but this is just. My whole point with these refs is that I'm like they really have it out for the ravens because they've been flagging the hell out of our ass. Yeah, that was nuts. It's happening against us and the Jets. It's like what the hell is going on and no one's calling this stuff out. If you look at any, any, any, any sports network, they're not calling these damn refs out, but we are. We are Uh-oh. Hey, ty Team Cowboysboys are here. He's very predictable when we're in cover two and the corners are in press coverage. They trying to keep getting the line for vegas. Yeah, yeah, absolutely really good morning.
Speaker 2:Really, are we doing this right now? We're doing this, listen man, listen, listen, really.
Speaker 1:You know a stat I haven't looked up yet who's the most penalized team in football right now? I haven't even looked that stat up yet.
Speaker 2:I'll do that. I'll do that on the record. Go ahead, keep going.
Speaker 1:We done had penalties. It's crazy. Steeler Nation, since we're speaking teams, that's right. Rep your team. This show is to rep your team. You always rep your team. So let's see, you think the Steelers are the most. I think we probably are, because it makes no sense. All day they hate us.
Speaker 2:No, they hate us more. Oh shit, actually it's neither one of y'all. Oh my God, this makes this hilarious. I cannot wait to talk about this issue. Cleveland leads the league with penalties this year.
Speaker 1:What, what. Oh God, I know my boys are the most hated. No no, no, hey, that's Dante's favorite team Cleveland, san Francisco. Still, my man, I'm sick beside them. I got you, you always. I don't believe in jumping ship. I always stand by my team. But again, like I said, when we started tearing the fur off of Tampa Bay, down there them refs started getting involved and we was tearing the fur off of them. Oh, no, no, no. You know what I hate those clowns, I know.
Speaker 2:Let's talk about those clowns, shall we? I want to get this out the way. I want to get this out the way because I want to address this whole little Deshaun Watson thing. Okay, a lot of people talking about him getting booed off the, you know, off the field on Sunday. Can I give y'all a public service announcement A we don't care. And B I don't blame them. And you know what? I don't even care if there was blaming the front office or if there was blaming Deshaun Watson. Ok, imagine this. Ok, you are a business.
Speaker 1:I was going to play for them. No more, no, hey, hey. But as soon as you make this point, we're going to get on this whole Baker Mayfield issue.
Speaker 2:But go ahead, yes, you are a business, right, you are an entity, ok. Go ahead. Yes, you are a business, right, you are an entity, ok, and you decided to invest two hundred and thirty million dollars guaranteed into one guy to be the quote unquote savior of your franchise. Now also take into effect. He has a law. He has a lawsuit with masseuses and, and and him getting massaged. Uh, certain massages done, okay. What's the number now? 28 different masseuses that that's been in this lawsuit right now right okay, so you have that.
Speaker 2:Then when you do sign him, yeah, he's going to miss the first 11 games of the tenure. Then when he finally does play, let's see how he does he ends up playing like shit. Then he goes into the following season where he plays until he gets hurt and before he got hurt he was playing like shit.
Speaker 2:And then this year he's playing like shit again before he ruptured his Achilles as a fan as a fan, if I was watching this, if I had season tickets, if I was a season ticket holder which, by the way, if you are, god bless you. If I was I would be booing them too. I'm booing somebody because Deshaun Watson don't want to sacrifice nothing. All he wanted to do was have his bag and shout out to his agent for making it happen. But the fact that you couldn't even be competent at your own position is what pisses people off, me included. And oh, by the way, I want to bring this up too, because everybody seemed to forget about this. Do y'all remember what happened before Deshaun Watson got there? You want to know what the conversation was about Baker Mayfield leaving the team. You want to know why? Because everybody was so fed up with Baker Mayfield. They didn't feel like he was deserving of getting the money and getting the extension and all those other stuff. Hey, let me ask y'all something How's he doing at Tampa Bay so far?
Speaker 1:Huh, Up and in the Ravens game.
Speaker 2:I mean shit. Even in the Ravens game he still threw three touchdowns. Yeah, I mean shit. Even in the Ravens game he still threw three touchdowns.
Speaker 1:Yeah so.
Speaker 2:I mean so this Baker Mayfield, the guy that everybody was deeming as some shit, you know playing for Cleveland, who would you rather have at quarterback today? I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1:Mr Callaway, you still listening. Who would you rather have at quarterback?
Speaker 2:if you still listening, I'll tell you what it's, baker, motherfucking Mayfield. So I mean whoever you want to point the fingers at honestly, you can look at the Browns organization and I don't blame you. Actually, I'll be number one to be honest with you, yeah, absolutely. But Deshaun Watson is not too far behind. Because this is we paid you this much money and this is our return of investment. Please Fuck out of here. Fuck out of here.
Speaker 2:The man can't even throw 30 yards down the field and Russell will sit up there and be cheering him as he's as he's getting carted off. Last time I checked us a business. Let's not do this, please seriously.
Speaker 1:Hey, jay has a point with this. They say Watson can't run a pro style offense. When he was in Houston, they changed the offense to what he played in Clemson, which is why he, uh, seceded, held the offense the Ravens built for Lamar is based on skill set and not the system. Bad coaching is why Watson is successful. Note how Flacco has success and he's a pro-style offense. So again.
Speaker 2:I don't want to hear shit when I'm paying you $230 million guaranteed. Sorry, Either adapt or go on the bench. It's that simple. It's that fucking simple.
Speaker 1:I would have been benched him Because don't they have Jameis Winston up there? Yes, yeah, I would have been benched him Because we've said this Okay, he can't throw the ball over 30 yards, right, right, he can't throw because he got in his face. One game was sacked eight times.
Speaker 2:Don't want to hear it. Don't want to hear it.
Speaker 1:Don't want to hear it. I paid you $230 million guaranteed.
Speaker 2:I'm sorry, I don't care. You have one to pass offensive lines and lead.
Speaker 1:I don't want to hear it. Didn't he say something about that? He wasn't going to run the ball, or something like that? Oh, I'm not running, I'm going to call it back. I'm not going to run the ball.
Speaker 2:This was out of his mouth yes, so I'm not going to be doing design QB runs. That's really what he decided to say. This is before he had any issues of Achilles, anything. I don't want to hear shit. I don't want to hear any excuses about Deshaun Watson. I don't want to hear any excuses about a guy that you're paying $230 million guaranteed to and he can't perform. No excuses, I'm sorry. Excuses, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry, I don't have it, jake, you got a point with that, but I mean the whole, the whole production. The whole thing is production, right, you gotta? Hey, he's not getting my best. Hey, all right, bring the next man in washington will be fine with another organization, you think so. So I think he's done. Bro, no, I think he's done. Herb, I think he is done.
Speaker 2:There is not another team in the world that is willing to do that to themselves.
Speaker 1:Not another team. He won't definitely get a guarantee like that. No, he'll probably be a backup someplace.
Speaker 2:No, he's done, he's done. And when the and when this lawsuit really gets into effect and it really starts penalizing him, oh, he, he's. I guarantee you, if he finds himself back in the league, it'll be off of grace and grace itself. I'm serious, it's not even. It's not even a joke. I don't care what the excuse is all right.
Speaker 1:That's why the ravens won't box marcus william. It's a business. It's about the return on investment. Okay, okay. Most importantly, how about those ravens?
Speaker 2:yeah, absolutely so, yeah, so don't, don't I? I see all these these cleveland browns players talking about, oh, they should be ashamed of themselves for pulling them off the field. He's still a human being. Stop it, stop it, stop it.
Speaker 1:Joe flacco led y'all to the playoffs last year wait a minute, we ain't talk about that, they still they still could have flacko up there but deshaun watson didn't want him back there.
Speaker 2:You want to know why? Because it was threatening his job, the job that he didn't deserve to have in the first place. And you know what? Speaking of joe flacco, how's this going on in indy?
Speaker 1:he doing fine up there. They should have protected their investment. I agree with you, they should have.
Speaker 2:I don't want to hear shit about that. He had a top offensive line when he first got signed. Then pieces started eroding away. That's what happens when you pay somebody 230 million dollars guaranteed. Your roster is not the same, sorry, not sorry, bro, y'all booed Santa Claus. You're damn right. At least we're honest, because I think that season we probably deserve not to do that. But hey, it comes with the territory of being in Philly. Baby, not Santa Claus man, all y'all need some.
Speaker 1:It comes with the territory of being in Philly, baby, but it's fine, not Santa Claus, man. All y'all need some coal up there. That line sucks now. So protect the investment, no, no. Well, they're going to have to do something to protect. No, because they're using what?
Speaker 2:the rookie quarterback, but AJ made a comment here earlier. Jameis is starting this week.
Speaker 1:He is. Oh, oh, okay, I thought they were starting the rookie. Oh no, over, james, okay. So jay just made a point and earlier I want to touch on that. Remember we got cleveland right, okay. And he says they haven't been scoring over 19 points all game. If he scores over 19 points, I would have to agree with him that Zach Orwell has to go. I would have to agree with him that he would have to go. I don't see that happening. It's the schemes man. It's not the place, it's the schemes. It's the schemes. And since we back on the Ravens now, you see the NFL is investigating this whole thing, with Roquan Smith talking about the hip drop Right.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And I've looked at this and I've looked at it and I looked at it and, from my opinion, it didn't look like a hip drop. Now, when Roquan got up, he was on his ankle right Cause he was on his knee trying to get up.
Speaker 2:I see that.
Speaker 1:But I don't think that that was a hip drop. But now he's being investigated. He said but if it is, he's going to get fined. If they deem it a hip drop, he's going to get fined for it. But let's go to Todd Bowles for a second, since we're talking about holding people accountable. Sure, now Troy Aikman said this and he said hey, hey, is there any 10 point play that you know of that's gonna? Is there any? If you know of any 10 point play that's gonna get you to win the game, let me know. Let me see. Damon's is high risk. Uh, high risk, high reward, but he's definitely entertaining. Okay, but I'm just saying they asked todd bowles hey, why didn't you take them guys out the game, just net? Todd Bowles said hey, we had a chance to try to win this game. Blah, blah, blah, just net. Unless you're the Kansas City Chiefs with 13 seconds, you ain't winning no damn game.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Because you know the refs are going to help you, right, the refs are going to, oh, pass interference defense. Yeah, move the Chiefs closer, hold it Whatever. But there's I don't know of any 10-point play, so you don't lost now. Mike Evans is down. Right, he's going to be down, they say probably until after week 11 or week 12,. Right, because of the hamstring. But Godwin's gone for the year, dislocated ankle Gone. That means this season is over. Like I said, this week seven has cost a lot of players injuries in their careers for the year, for the year, and it's really, really sad that that's going on. Play to the final whistle. However, you could have subbed your best, thank you, you could have subbed your best players out. Yeah, because, remember, they got Atlanta next and Atlanta gave them a bomb burner.
Speaker 1:I don't know man, I don't know you saved your best players, like, okay, I'm going to save you from yourself, right, and Todd Bowles to me didn't do that, oh no.
Speaker 2:I mean, you have to be Stevie Wonder to think otherwise. But I mean, it's one of those things where it's like Todd, that was dumb, that was dumb, that was dumb, that wasn't smart. Okay, the game was out of reach. The final score does not do it justice. Okay, the game was over, let it go. Let it go Fight for another day. It was it. And I have to look back at the other buccaneers games because I'm pretty sure even when they played against new orleans and they had 51 points, I think their starters are still out there.
Speaker 1:I need to look I need to look at that, but yeah, y'all be six and two. Y'all gonna beat the giants.
Speaker 2:Thanks for dropping in man oh my god not for real, y'all be fine, but it's one of those things that's kind of like todd, come on man, and what makes it worse, what makes the goblin injury worse, is that he's a free agent this season. So, chances are he's not going back to the team and if I'm being honest, if I'm factoring his age, even with the production he's had so far this year, if I'm a team I'm hesitant to want to pay him to any deal in this offseason.
Speaker 1:Yeah, off a major injury. But hey, I agree with you, bowles probably will get fired. He probably will because he lost two major pieces in that game, two major I wouldn't go on fire.
Speaker 1:Though Mike Evans, I don't think I would let him play, especially, remember, they do warm-ups, right, they do warm-ups. You see how they're running. I'm like, nah, I need you, sit this one out, sit this one out, because, remember, it's saving players from their self. I know you want to get the win. I know you want to get your team. You know like, hey, I, I'm here, I got this. You know we riding, we doing this. But hey, nah, if you see him one up, he's struggling, he's limping. Nah, man, sit this one out, sit this one out. You're the head coach. You pretty much have the final say. Right, you have the final say like, nah, sit this one, ride this one out. Like Ty said, even with the 49ers, next man up, right, somebody got to step up, somebody got to step up. Yeah, if Zach Orton don't step up, he's going to be fired out of Baltimore. They probably going to go. Well, throw TP on his house, tp, tp.
Speaker 2:Now I mean, I don't think this is worth him being fired per se, but I agree, can't play from the tub.
Speaker 1:He didn't practice all week due to the hammy. Short-term versus long-term, yeah.
Speaker 2:That's true.
Speaker 1:Again, bowles could have told him no, don't come in that game. No, I need you, I need you later I get you want to play. No, sit this one out. We got this. And again, godwin probably would have gotten more of the workload, yeah, yeah, because even when he scored that first touchdown, the pain he was in, the pain he was in when he scored the first touchdown, right, right. So I gotta say these guys from their self, man, we have to because, like I said, this week, seven the injuries that was around the league, somebody in what um arizona carnell's gone for the year. Yeah, the injuries that has happened around the league is wow, especially in this one week. People are gone for the season.
Speaker 2:Oh, speaking of injuries, I'm seeing this. I've been seeing this for the past couple days. I want to say this whole thing about Tua coming back to play. Let me address that real fast. Tua, you want to come back to play, but yet when they're asking you About a guardian cap, you decide that you don't want to. You said no For a personal choice. The last time we saw you, you were in a fencing position, unconscious.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and your hand was stuck.
Speaker 2:You didn't know what the fuck was going on. You come back and you decide to play, which, honestly, at this stage in the game, mind you think twice about that.
Speaker 1:I would sit this one out, seriously. I didn't even talk about the two shots lamar took in the helmet right I ain't talking about that one, the two shots he took now you're saying no for a personal reason.
Speaker 2:now let me tell you something right now If you end up getting hurt again, again, the NFL is going to be like no, he cannot come back. No, there's an absolute. You must retire. Yeah, you have to retire If you end up hurt again. This comment right here is perfect, you shouldn't be playing at all. No, absolutely, absolutely.
Speaker 1:You shouldn't be playing at all.
Speaker 2:No, absolutely, absolutely you get hurt again without this guardian cap. That's made. The exact use is used to protect your head stupid, it's used to protect your head. If you get hurt again by way of a concussion, you automatically retire. There is no ultimatum. There is no. Oh well, let's think about this, let's go visit this neurologist. No, you're done Seriously and there shouldn't be any ands or buts about that. And if I'm Mike McDaniel today, I would say look, I get it. You told the press that you don't want to do it, but for the safety and for the comfort of your family, put the goddamn cap on.
Speaker 2:Thank, you Worst case scenario if you do end up going down and you still get a concussion, maybe you didn't deserve to play in the first place.
Speaker 1:Maybe Not only that, not only that, not only that If it happens again this season and he gets a concussion, the NFL, like I said, is going to be like no, he's done Because the NFL is going to look at it like this. No, this is a lawsuit waiting to happen. We supposed to have all these things in place to protect these players and you're not protecting them from their self. After that one, I would have been like we need to see all his stuff. He needs to go to a medical review board. All like no, he needs to retire.
Speaker 2:Oh, oh. By the way, I'm glad you brought up a lawsuit. If this does end up turning into a lawsuit, I'll give y'all a spoiler the NFL's gonna win. You wanna know why? Because they were the motherfuckers that was trying to tell him, advising the Dolphins that, hey, this is multiple offenses of him having this concussion. Might need to figure something out. Dolphins said no, he plays. Did y'all forget about just two years ago on Thursday night when he had that wild concussion, where he just sat up there and just he has?
Speaker 1:170 guarantees to sit your ass down to a. I get it. I'm preaching this. You know, that's what I'm just saying. You got something that could end your life, not just your career, your life. Come on, seriously, we're having multiple ones.
Speaker 2:Sit out.
Speaker 1:I don't get it.
Speaker 2:I don't get it, I don't get it but you know what, since you want to play, put a goddamn cap on oh no, if I was the organization, I'd be like no, you're putting that cap on.
Speaker 1:If I was the organization. Without question, without question without question, I would tell him you need to wear that cap. No if, ifs, no ands, no buts. You want to play you wearing that cap?
Speaker 2:And I don't care how heavy it is. That's the complaint that a lot of players have had. They're like you know, it's too heavy. It makes it a little bit challenging to maneuver with. Hey, if it means protecting your fucking head from all that contact do it.
Speaker 1:I totally agree with this. They should rethink it. If I was the NFL, I'd be telling Miami no, he can't play, no more. No, he can't play anymore. But you know, the players union, everybody get involved, and it'd be a big whole stink and stuff like that. I'm like like, look, we have documented proof right here that it's not safe for him to play because he takes another shot. Because here's the thing you can't guarantee where somebody's going to hit you, you can't guarantee it. Okay, you can't guarantee. You cannot guarantee that somebody's always going to hit me in the chest, hit me on the side or whatever, whatever. Because when moving parts I forgot the player that said this. He says when we play in football, it's like being in a car accident, for every day of your life, every day of your life, it feels like it's being in a car accident.
Speaker 2:Yep, yep.
Speaker 1:You might not survive that next hit. That's my point. Not just the cap, but also the mouth guard. This is why Lamar has mouth guard to stop his teeth from chattering on those big hits. Yeah, yeah, cause a lot of people don't wear the mouth guard. If it's something to protect me all the way around, I'm wearing it, not to mention the grills that Lamar got too, if it's something to protect me all the way around.
Speaker 2:I'm wearing it, Not to mention the grills that Lamar got too. He got the grills in, he got to protect them. Right, I'm just saying, bro, like your track record doesn't render you having a choice. That's my thing. That's my whole point. If you don't get anything out of what I just said, my point is your track record shows you that you don't have a choice. You shouldn't have a choice.
Speaker 1:He needs bubble wrap.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he needs something, your track record shows that you, to a tongue of our own, should not have a choice in this matter.
Speaker 1:No, no. So when they dropped it and said he was coming back, I was like he's what.
Speaker 2:Right, right.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:And now you don't want to put something on to protect yourself? Come on now. Come on now. Come on now. Here's the thing you playing a very physical. Let's put this one in a big, bold letter Contact sport. Right, this ain't flag football. Okay, this is a contact sport. He would be playing flag. Yeah, that's where he needs to go, the flag football. Because I just fear that if he takes another shot, he may not recover from it.
Speaker 2:I'm not trying to be funny. There will be another shot coming and when it happens, there should be no shock to anyone in the stadium. There should be no shock with anybody that's a Dolphins fan. There should be no shock in the league Nothing. We saw this coming.
Speaker 1:Right, we saw it coming, saw it coming. Saw it coming. Right, we saw it coming, saw it coming. Saw it coming so so.
Speaker 2:I just wanted to put that out there.
Speaker 1:We saw it coming, since we on the remember I got to go back to Cleveland just for a second. Just for a second. Go back to Cleveland, right? How'd that work out giving away Amari Cooper?
Speaker 2:Worked well for Bills. Worked well for.
Speaker 1:Buffalo didn't it so well that Amari. Cooper scored a touchdown.
Speaker 2:Amari Cooper scored a touchdown and he didn't know what route to run on that score. That's how well it's going for Buffalo. It's going so well that he had to ask a rookie wide receiver hey, what route am I supposed to run?
Speaker 1:Yeah, what route am I supposed to run, right?
Speaker 2:What am I supposed to do? And it worked. It fucking worked, like that's how good it's going. That's how good it's going right now for Buffalo and Omar Cooper, and I'm so happy for him. He deserves it. Cause that shithole known as Cleveland man, I thought he was never getting out of that what Mr Callaway said.
Speaker 1:He was on a 460 bridge thinking about his life decisions. Hey, you can always trade teams. You can always trade teams. You can always trade teams. You don't have to put up with that anymore. I remember I was on a flight with someone. It was a Cleveland fan. This is what he said. He said y'all took our Super fan. This is what he said. He said y'all took our Super Bowl. This is what he said to me, being a Ravens fan Y'all stole our Super Bowl. I said, no, we didn't steal anything. I said then Cleveland Browns left because they said, hey, it was time for us to go right. They came to Baltimore and had success, so we didn't steal anything. Because it's not like baltimore came up there and strong arm y'all and took the team away from you. They left willingly, just like the colts left willingly, and with the indianapolis in a blizzard right at you. At least yours wasn't in the blizzard. Well, that's December 1st. December 1st. Eagles and Ravens, december 1st.
Speaker 2:Yep, yep, I don't know, it's looking pretty good right now. I like both teams so far.
Speaker 1:As long as Nick Sirianni don't piss you off one week. As long as Nick Sirianni don't piss you off one week. As long as Nick Sirianni don't piss you off one week, you know, because he'd be making life decisions too. Uh-oh, wager. Uh-oh, I'm all for it. What's the wager?
Speaker 2:What is the wager for that game? What's the wager?
Speaker 1:for that game. What's the wager? That's a good one. All right, wait a minute. Wait a minute. I can always do this.
Speaker 2:I can do that I can do, that I can do. That too, I can do.
Speaker 1:that too, I can do that, okay, I'll do that.
Speaker 2:I can do that too. I can do that too, I can do that. Okay, I'll propose this and this is going to cause chaos, but hell, I'm kind of the king of chaos, kind of what we do here. I'm just thinking about this on the spot. You let me know if you want to advise or change. How about this? How about this Whoever's team loses that game has to wear that winning team's jersey on the show that week. And and the show must be conducted with shots induced, regardless of whether it's light or brown, light or dark that entire episode anytime there is a mention of your team during the show, you have to take a shot.
Speaker 1:Woo, somebody about to be plastered. I'm in, I'm in, I'm, in'm in, I'm in.
Speaker 2:Count me in that is the wager. That is the wager I'm in whoever? Loses has to wear the opponent's team's jersey on the following episode of the DK and Tree podcast and every time the team is mentioned, jersey on the following episode of the DK and tree podcast, and every time the team is mentioned, we have to take a shot. That is, that is the wager, and and I'll even do this, I'll even do this the winner picks the bottle that they drink. That's it. I think that's fair. I think that's somewhat serviceable.
Speaker 2:I mean it don't help.
Speaker 1:Sounds like death, it doesn't help. Sounds like death.
Speaker 2:It doesn't help that we're going to be at the game to witness this for ourselves, but hey, that's what I'm proposing, that's what I have on the table.
Speaker 1:You know, I don't back down from nothing. You on, you on, I don't back down for nothing. You won, you won. I don't back down for anything, you won, okay. Okay, that is the wager Make sure I drink plenty of water that week, just in case Shit.
Speaker 2:I got one beat already. Damn yeah, woo. Damn yeah, yes, ma'am.
Speaker 1:Woo True fan.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and that's the thing. So we'll be at the game, right? So when the final seconds is over, we both have to sit there and realize our fate come Tuesday. That is, that is our biggest issue. Once the once the triple zeros hit that scoreboard, it will set in what we are signing up for come Tuesday. Yeah, that's going to be hilarious, yeah.
Speaker 1:That's going to be hilarious. Yeah, that's going to be chaos. That's going to be chaos, that's going to be chaos.
Speaker 2:I figured that that was going to work for us. I figured you know why not.
Speaker 1:Let me get somebody some shine. I'm not sure of any, I'm on here, but let me give the Commanders some shine, you know, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Jalen got hurt.
Speaker 1:You know, yeah, jalen got hurt. Hope he makes it back. That's why I said this week seven has been nothing but injuries. This has been crazy. But Commanders, they're doing their thing. I have to eat some crow for that, because I didn't think they would be doing this thing going good. And they're doing so good that they're flexing their games. And that's making me upset because I got to work. So I'm like y'all doing so good, y'all flexing games. No, no, no, no, no, it's it's given. Now they probably going to a Thursday night game or a Sunday night football or a Monday night football. No, I'm not for this. I ain't for this. I'm not for any of it.
Speaker 2:If they win the division.
Speaker 1:Guess what?
Speaker 2:else is going to happen. They get a whole playoff game. Yep that I have to work.
Speaker 1:Oh yes, so I was used to work. So I was used to the days when this season's over, it's over, Okay. But you know something? I also thought about something also. You know I only work eight games during the season, right, but if you look at the guys up in MetLife Stadium remember, they share a stadium those officers have to work 16 games. Oh, it sounds like money. They have to work a whole season where I only work a half.
Speaker 2:I didn't even think about that.
Speaker 1:Damn. I thought about it. Them guys up there have to work 16 games.
Speaker 2:New York, los Angeles now, because you got the Rams and the Chargers Right. Oh my, oh, my God, ew, no, no.
Speaker 1:But Commanders, like I said, and Marita came in and put a 40 burger, yeah, now I get. This is what I get, because I get this from my boy, because he's a commander's fan. He's taught but we haven't beat a reputable team. This now I said dude, any team that's in the nfl is a reputable team, regardless of what their record is. They are a reputable team because they're in the National Football League. You beat them. You beat them You're talking about. Oh, because you haven't beat a team like Kansas City, a team like Baltimore, a team like you know who else is doing really good right now.
Speaker 1:Detroit, detroit, y'all. Just I say, okay, y'all got the Bears coming in here, right, that's going to be a good game. That's going to be a good game. Now, y'all beat the Bears. You can say you beat a reputable team. I agree, kaleem Williams is beasting up there, right. So the thing with this now you can't say that but y'all record is not a fraud, y'all winning these games. You're playing who? But y'all record is not a fraud, y'all winning these games you play.
Speaker 2:Who's on a schedule?
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's it Cause, remember, y'all didn't do so hot. They based off who does great, who does not. Unless you can see chiefs, you know they'll favor your schedule. But they base so like all right, these are your teams, you're going to play this year Right now. But they base it's like all right, these are your teams, you're going to play this year Right Now. If y'all go all the way let's say divisional round, right, then y'all going to have a harder schedule next year, right. Let's say NFC championship game Right, I'm stretching, I'm stretching, I'm stretching. Your schedule is going to be a lot harder. So you can't say that y'all not a reputable team because you haven't beat a reputable opponent. Y'all beating teams in the NFL. It's a reputable opponent, right. But, like I said, commanders put a shellack in A 40-burger. I felt sorry for the Panthers and there was actually Panthers fans in that stadium. I said, man, y'all showed up, y'all showed up.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't have showed up for this, I wouldn't show my face, I wouldn't know. Welcome to the world of tough schedules next season yes, absolutely, because they're going to win the division. Welcome to the world of tough schedules next season yes, absolutely.
Speaker 2:Because they're going to win the division. They're going to win the division. Ah, not so fast, because we have hope in Philly. We have hope, we have hope. We are 4 and two. Saquon is whooping the Giants' ass for a living. Aj Brown has gotten a touchdown in his two games back already. Not so fast.
Speaker 1:Not so fast, okay, okay.
Speaker 2:I'll hold up, I'll hold up, I'm holding. I'll hold up Nick Sir holding up, I'll hold up. Nick Sirianni is having me hold on to a string here. Nick Sirianni is making me not want to hold on to this string. No more, don't get me wrong, but we're four and two. That's all I'm going to say. I think that's fair, okay.
Speaker 1:I'll hold up, I'll hold up, I'll hold up, I'll hold up, I'll hold up, I'll hold up. It'll be between you and the commander, because the Cowboys ain't looking like that Cowboys ain't looking too good. Hey, matter of fact, since we on the Cowboys, I just want to talk about the chatter. You know, I got to talk about the chatter because you know I love talking about Jerry. I love talking about Jerry. You know, jerry never lets me down, jerry never lets us down, especially out there in jerry land. He just never lets us down.
Speaker 1:So his latest thing of saying that derrick henry wouldn't fit in their scheme, what else did he say? Said Derek Hibby wouldn't fit in our scheme. Let's see what he did. Thanks, jerry, absolutely thanks, jerry. Let me see Troy Aikman got on him talking about hey, the receivers need to do this, and that Mike McCarthy pushes back on him and says that, oh no, his opinion don't carry no weight around here.
Speaker 1:Wait, wait, wait, doesn't that man has three super bowl rings? One, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, three. Heard your boy mike? That's mike. Hey, what'd you think about what tony? Uh, what troy achman said, he says I totally agree with him. He said you know how many times I broke my um, my wrist, getting off people. Wow, he said, because they just two dancing and shuffling at the line Right. So I hit that wrist and I was gone. Wow, he says, yeah, we do have our opinion, does have weight in Dallas. But you know, old Jerry Land is so out of touch. That's why he'll never win a Super Bowl, because he don't know football. He don't know it at all. Jerry's biggest problem is Jerry. That's his biggest problem. Wow, you can't even pay the refs to have them win a game. Oh, my bad.
Speaker 2:Oh man, you can't even put on a roster to stay in a game Like what.
Speaker 1:But he's out there self-sabotaging his team all the time. But these guys always want that star. Oh, I got to have the prestige of the star on my helmet. All right, it's not that much prestige, it's not. I want to go someplace. That's going to give me the best way of winning. That's it, the best opportunity to win. Let's see Talk about Super Bowl Ravens next two. Yeah, and the way we blowing, we better, we better.
Speaker 2:That man. Look Y'all better, because I said that y'all was supposed to go there last year. Y'all supposed to win this shit last year. I swear to God. I swear to God. If we look up on February whatever date, the Super Bowl is, and the Baltimore Ravens aren't there, I promise you it's going to be a lot of heavy conversations about Baltimore All about Baltimore.
Speaker 1:You know who we're going to start with John Harbaugh and Zach Orr. That'd be the first two. That'd be the first two.
Speaker 2:Sure, and then it'll be a totem pole after that. Lamar Jackson glad to have some questions about him too. I'm serious.
Speaker 1:I'm serious, lamar is playing out of his damn mind. I know he is playing out of his mind, but I think again and I'm going to say this Harbaugh better not call that game, thank you. I keep telling you, if you look at Harbaugh, better not call that game, thank you. I keep telling you, if you look at Harbaugh's face, he don't look the same, I'm telling you. I think that locker room's like look, get out of our damn way. We got this. Turn us loose.
Speaker 1:I'm telling you I think he's lost that locker room. So I think he's lost that locker room. So I think he has.
Speaker 2:At the very least y'all got to be in the AFC championship game this year.
Speaker 1:Absolutely At the very least, and it's probably going to run through Kansas City.
Speaker 2:It probably is, it probably is and I don't mind going up there to serve a whole bunch of revenge cold. I cannot believe that A 6-0 team who doesn't have any wide receivers Right.
Speaker 1:Yeah, lamar would put him in his place. Should have been lost it. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely. Should have been lost that damn locker room. Again, if I look at Harbaugh's facial expressions, oh, they don't look like the same, it doesn't look the same.
Speaker 1:There's something going on in that locker room. He's not happy about it, but the boy is like no, let us goddamn play 50-Burg on KC. I would love to see that. I would love for us to do that In their house System. Andy Reid is key. Yeah, that's true. Listen. I would love for Baltimore to go there, but you know, I'm going to Kansas City next month, right? No, are you? Yes, and with me and all my shadiness I'm going over to Union Station. I'm going to take my video over there and I'm going to the stadium and take a video over there. Any place I go that has a stadium, I'm going to be there. Ravens colors, us Ravens are going to touch every stadium in the NFL.
Speaker 2:I'm making sure of NFL. I'll make it sure of it.
Speaker 1:I'll make it sure of it. I'll make it sure of it the league will burn when the Ravens yes.
Speaker 2:Why did it burn, though?
Speaker 1:Because remember what we talked about. Remember what we talked about? About this whole thing of image and Mahomes' face and all that. And Lamar doesn't look like the face. He's this, he's a South Florida boy and all this. It's that whole thing of the NFL and I'm starting to believe that you don't think rings have anything to do with it.
Speaker 2:You don't think rings have anything to do with it. You don't think rings have anything to do with it.
Speaker 1:That's making you the face right. Yes, yes, that's making you the face. We don't want him to be the face. Nah, he's going to be the face. He's going to be the face of the NFL Watch. Okay. And guess who will be in parade in Baltimore? We are, we are, yeah. Okay, guess who would be in parade in baltimore? We are, we are. Yeah, I'm going straight to the stadium. I learned my lessons in 2012. Wow, let's see, my homes is a half breed. Yeah, yeah. And they got him as the face of the nfl. They don't want to. I guess they don't want that south florida boy to be the face of the nfl.
Speaker 2:Crazy, crazy he just doesn't. He's not, as it's weird to say, he's not as charismatic as patrick is, and he also doesn't win more rings than Patrick does. I guess that's a factor, unfortunately. I mean, I don't know. I don't know, it has to come from something and maybe that's what it is. I don't know, but Lamar, is putting out his line, though, for sure.
Speaker 1:He is, he is. But I like this comment he bucked the system. No, agent didn't want the wide receiver redefining the wide receiver position. Yeah, he bucked the system, so he's trying to keep them down. They ain't going to. They got a monster in the backfield right now A monster. He bucked the system, so he's trying to keep them down. They ain't going to. They got a monster in the backfield right now, a monster that Dallas didn't want. Sorry.
Speaker 2:Sorry, Jerry.
Speaker 1:That Dallas didn't want. Remember, we can't afford Derrick Henry, he doesn't fit our scheme. Hmm, okay, no problem. So at the end of the year, when Derrick Henry has about 2,300 yards rushing, I'm going to ask Jerry again yeah, he sure didn't. He sure didn't Always wanted to come to Baltimore. And he said that, talking to Rich Eisen Said I want to go to Baltimore, he said Dallas never asked me, they never even called me, and I worked down the street from their facility.

Speaker 2:I haven't seen an issue on DeAndre Hopkins affecting the locker room yet, so if I do end up seeing something about that, so be it. But by the way, I would be grumpy too if the first franchise I played for never gave me a quarterback. Then they finally did. Then they traded me away for nothing. Then I go to another roster where I didn't have a chance to go to the playoffs because the defense was so god-awful.
Speaker 2:Then they trade me away to another team that has a quarterback, that's worried about Mayo and Colon instead of playing quarterback. Yeah, I'll be a little bit grumpy too. Being a wide receiver I would. I would Just saying, just saying, if that was my storyline arc as a career, I'm sorry.
