49ers defeat Aaron Rodgers & Jets, Mahomes Mountain, Are Cowboys Super Bowl or Bust with Dak's deal?

Jets fall to 49ers 31-19 on MNF. Optimistic about Aaron Rodgers and NY? live from New York it's a show that's starting to believe you actually are a bicyclist I am you're doing well I am yeah yeah part of my triathlon training how's the running going that's phase two how about swimming phase three okay yeah you got it you got how do you how do you eat how do you eat an elephant one bite at a time my friend that's how I guess so I think that's in the Bible wow it I doubt it sound just sounds like any event first hour first today debut take two we wanted to see the old Rogers we saw an old Rogers uh but the Jets are still talking about the Super Bowl okay all you showing are the misses look look at that well there wasn't that many he didn't have any completions that many completions we could show Ty rods uh Lamar missing practice is Brew worried about one of his favorite teams did he take a or something is he going to need an AFC contingent team as well what are we going to do I mean if he gets hurt it's just in the bo my goodness and finally the return of the coldest segment in all of sports and Caleb better not be high up after throwing for 90 yards in his debut momes M can you Caleb's got it he was on the mountain last year listen I understand you have a tough job may may I just for a moment I pa I understand you have a tough job because you are the host of the show but also an opinionist on the show uh no and leader of show yes and leader but when you're in introducing the show keep your takes to yourself when you're introducing the mountain now when the mountain comes give your takes yeah is that you're kind of you know what fa T okay thank you I appreciate it can't just be juicing juing the exactly right well should I rewrite the Aaron Rogers Le no that was fine I agree no that was not take Nick's advice all right well uh we start with game 24 yes last night marked the 24th straight game Aaron Rogers did not throw for 300 yard this time against the 49ers who ran rough shot over the Bal who Jets defense me top five I guess top one a lot of my is the greatest go here's Salah and Rogers it's a championship outfit and they introduced us to some championship football and uh we'll get that fixed they are a championship level group um and I hope we see him there the Jets feel optimistic level optimistic yeah about what but they had one drive all game where they looked like a professional outfit and I tweeted not sarcastically but kind of sadly I think that drive was the happiest sequence of events for Jet fans in a decade I I honest to God I that might be I seriously I I think it was uh optimistic because here is the through line of folks who really want to believe in the Jets what you're hearing this morning man Aaron did show he can still throw such a pretty ball America on the Miss I no just just in general that he still zip on his ball yeah yeah listen I remember being a kid watching the NFL today and one day and Dan they would occasionally like go outside and throw the ball around Dan Marino was in his 50s and the ball came out of his hand beautifully I believe that he looked like he could Aaron Rogers will be able to throw a pretty ball forever nobody thought well he's just not going to know how to throw anymore the question was the other parts about playing football and how did that go for the Jets offensively the season started with a drop and an eye roll and then a fumble and an eye roll before the one good sustained Drive uh shockingly and we can show it to you the San Francisco defense figured out what Nat Hackett Aaron Rogers wanted to do uh left um I they cracked the code boys that he's throwing there and it styed some things defensively this big bad Jets defense allowed points on eight consecutive drives you know how many times that happened in the entirety of the 2023 NFL season by any team zero correct the last it actually the Saints did it this weekend against the Panthers prior to that that counts the last time it happened was bake show with the Rams against Nat hacket uh Broncos but he's not running the defense but just what it is so I mean you have no pass rush seem like you miss son reic big winner of the night and Jordan Mason torched you yes and so no they shouldn't feel optimistic and every time we talk about the Jets after each game I'm going to ask Brew this question is it it yet fair for me to question Bobby salah's coaching credentials or is it still too early it's early it's still too early okay all right we'll find out when Jets fans come here my goodness don't listen to these two about your te anything uh yeah that's frustrating when Happ they hate your team we don't hate they will never say a positive word about your team I like Chad Pennington I on the other hand m don't really care about your team one way or the other which means I'm unbiased and I will tell you the truth and here it is you shouldn't be pessimistic how about that you shouldn't be all over the place with optimism but you shouldn't be pessimistic after one game all right you should be optimistic that you have a chance to make the playoffs for the first time in 14 years what about win the division like they were favored to do still have chance yeah I still it's week one last last year the Buffalo Bills got beat by the Jets without Aaron Rodgers in week one and how' that work oh they won the division it's week one you played the best team in the NFC last year is it right the defending champs in their building they have a ton of stuff to prove and you lost now expect them to win game but we didn't expect them to be down 3213 we didn't expect them to allow points on eight straight drives Aaron Rogers was playing his first game in a year and a half and he did not look special I I would he didn't look special he looked more like the Aaron Rogers from the last year in Green Bay there's no doubt about that and the game if I may just to show before you finish and Wilds goes it this game from Aaron roders statistically looked a hell of a lot like the last time we saw iron Rogers right I yes I team scores in the teens you struggle to get to 200 yards one touchdown one pick and at some point there is the possibility oh against good teams that's who Aaron roggers is against I against all teams that's who Aaron Rogers real here's what I'm just objectively I'm wondering does Aaron roders at this stage of his career and even the last several years need a Matt leflour because he didn't you know remember aens never wanted a lot of pre- snap motion even when he was Elite at the height of his career and then lfl and he started struggling at the end of McCarthy's tenur without that stuff lfl comes in they upgrade the offense if you will more pre-nap motion and things like that and they're scheming Guys open and he has two MVP years now I wonder at this stage of his career cuz yesterday it looked basic right it and Rogers and that hack it or running it and so that's a question that I do have but to to you know one game against one of the top two three four teams in the league how long did he have to prep for this game wild you can't prep when you've been out for a year and a half you still are going to have some growing paints especially against the top team in his offensive coordinator that he brought over they should be like let's run our favorite stuff how many quarterbacks looked so so this weend just about everyone and all of them out were B Hood like the savior of the New York Jets here's how I compared it to brew went to Bali remember one of those vacations I think it was the second vacation if you came back and I was like how was the vacation and you said you know what fine it I didn't it didn't it didn't ruin the vacation it was a decent week no you said it was bucket list and that's what I wanted that's what I needed to see you were going against the ners when people are Sayers people are saying the Jets are going to the Super Bowl those people because they believe in Aaron Rogers who had 167 yards slightly less than Deshawn Watson between Deshawn Watson Jo BR he had 13 completions to three guys his passer rating was 23rd he's just an average Quarterback and I have to turn on these shows and hear that he's this this this is what really gets to me if you want peel back the emotional layers that he's following the same track as Tom Brady and he is not Brady his debut lost to a Saints team he had 239 yards he had two uh passing touchdowns he ran a touchdown he had two interceptions go like oh that's the rusty part but Brady looked like the old Brady and Aaron Rogers does not look like the I age he no he he did not look like that and I think so I just think there are so I want to be very clear here I do not think Aaron roggers was the problem last night he wasn't part of the solution I think the if I am I think the biggest problem was the defense which is a bigger problem in and of itself it's supposed to be great supposed to be great well but so no no no but the defense is supposed to be great instantly early in the year the defense supposed to be ahead of the offense one of the reason to bruise point so many offenses quarterback struggled defenses are ahead so I so there is that should have worked in their favor instead they got run on they generated no pass rush they had no answers for an entertainment I know we'll get to it that was without one of if not their biggest weapon so you have that piece of it the second one is that Target chart is abysmal every single pass it was going to either Bree hall or Garrett Wilson with the occasional one Allen Lazard and then I guess he had won to Concklin I don't even know who they didn't even play Williams no Mike Williams started and then left and then came back in at the end there it was there was no creativity and part of that was Aaron was one of three quarterbacks in week one to get rid of the ball on average in less than two and a half seconds it's almost like he's an older quarterback who's not mobile anymore and was afraid to get hit now maybe that gets better but the fastest to get rid of the ball this weekend was J Daniels who was very clear my first read open no I'm running Baker who just seemed to be cooking immediately like and and Aaron was number three on that list 2.47 thir he always been quick release he's always been quick release but with high production oh yeah now and so the this is and this is where I get a little frustrated Brew not with you but we can't this is kind of a first cousin of the what I thought was excuse making for the Dolphins when it was like well it's hard to beat the Ravens and the Chiefs like yeah but you have to if you in the bills if you going to the Jets are supposed to be contenders the Jets are the favorites to win a division that has Tua and Josh Allen in it the now does that mean you need to go to San Francisco and win of course not San Francisco might go undefeated at home this year but should you go to San Francisco and look competent should you go to San Francisco and have more than one drive with your starters that's good other than the Aaron Rogers free play touchdown Which is still excellent that that that part is demoralizing but no it shouldn't be because Buffalo did not look great this weekend they struggled with an Arizona team most people don't have making the play I know people think they're frisky and real talk people think they're frisky but they came into your building and almost beat you all right Miami got a win which was a a good win but they didn't look great so I'm just my thing is just I agree Jets fans first of all anybody thinking they were going to win the Super Bowl you were already a little too high but even I just think they shouldn't be pessimistic and like down like oh my gosh we're going to be terrible you were playing the San Francisco 49ers I I guess my point is I can't think of another Contender or Contender adjacent team that was very bad on both sides of the ball the bills defense wasn't good this week their offense was the the Eagles if you think they're a contender their defense wasn't good their offense was I'm trying to go you know up and down the list Atlanta's offense was awful their defense was actually pretty good held them to just field goals maybe that's the closest to it go go up and down the list what other team that we have real expectations for you're supposed to I thought Miami's offense wasn't great the defense was I'm down on them but the Bengals that's why the the the Bengals defense was fine the Bengals they allowed 16 points was against New England okay so the Bengals are the one the Bengals are the one and we asked is it Panic time yeah that's right we asked is it Panic time and so I mean no my my answer to this is no the jet should not feel optimistic and I don't think you think no I'm just saying I don't think the sky is fall yeah that's all I'm saying I would be like bad news that's why mcaffrey listen okay pretty meanwhile close your move on to Brock pry 231 yards I'll read a Verbatim uh text from Brew quote he's out playing a Hall of Famer by Leaps and Bounds Brew said that whole chain is off the Record oh is this off St surgical here's py postc he was surgical for us as an offense it's like man we want to score touchdowns and we're hard on ourselves about you know like the I think it was like a third and eight or third and 10 and coming up short and it's like man like you know there's areas where we want to push each other and and get a little better and that's starts with me okay look at that pry uh last night started a little slow then heated up also when s left the game to catches wind was weird that's when he really started cooking SAU was all over he was doing great were you impressed by a CMC less 49ers Squad bro the I goad the I mean listen I was impressed by Brock I those first couple drives can't believe it wait can you say that again no listen I I think that's the first time I will continue to just be fair and honest about Brock Pie when he plays well I will tell you when I think he plays poorly I will tell you when I think his numbers are not a reflection of how well or poorly he played I will tell you this is an instance where I think he was better than those numbers suggest I thought that this was to me more impressive than some of his 120 passer rating three touchdown games because I did it was it was a whole weekend of bad quarterback play essentially with the rare exception as you guys mentioned it started off looking like he was going to follow in that Trend I think I sent you guys on our off the Record Tex chain uh you know a meme or a gift about that and then after those opening few drives I thought there was one drive the entire game where he wasn't very good and it was the one where Aman got on him a bit like oh that could have been picked and that was right and it was like bang bang bang but everything before that and everything after that was excellent I thought it and I didn't think it was super easy layup stuff guys some of the guys were open but they were still good reads I thought the pass the play to use check was a good read by pie I listen I thought he played well and I was watching that game and I because I don't think the Jets defense is bad I don't think they are the best defense in football the way some people expected so I thought this was an impressive performance by Brock per despite the numbers looking mediocre well and and auk was completely Rusty he dropped two passes one of them a perfectly thrown ball in the end zone that would have made the stats look better obviously I want to throw this out out at you Nick just and and mcaffrey until further notice is the best running back in the league now we'll see does saquan pass him this year does Henry you know Henry's just a totally different type of running back I want to throw this at you though and I'm not saying this to diminish mcaffrey because you've said rightly that pie has the shadow of Jimmy G even though Jimmy G is not better than him they won with Jimmy G mcaffrey kind of has the shadow of their running success pre before him they they got to the Super Bowl with Raheem moard and Matt breida they've they have always had I mean once garoo got there and they became a pretty good team they've always had a good run game under Kyle Shanahan regardless of who it was Elijah Mitchell Jeff Wilson go back to his dad you know what I mean I'm just I mean mcaffrey obviously showed what he could do in Carolina we know he's a really he's a great back but I don't know that their run game would have been any better yesterday with mff he's a better receiver than these other guys so so listen I the M for mcaffrey it is it is also that he did seem to Super charge that offense the moment he got their midseason a couple years ago Jimmy G played the best football of his life that they've been you know the most success they ever had been since he's been there but we also know Christian mcaffry was a multiple time all proo before he ever set foot in San Francisco but you are treading close to what I think this is why I don't think we disagree on pry as much as others if someone came out today and said Jordan Mason top five back in football well no well right and it'd be like well what do you want him to do what do you wild what do you want but this is this is the difference nobody would realistically say that today but if Jordan Mason did this for a year and a half then you might start saying it right but so the but that's kind of but if Jordan Mason did it for a year and a half I still think some people would be like well he's good and maybe better than he should have been as an undrafted player but we have seen Raheem moer we have seen Matt breida we have seen the guys that Kyle's dad Mike did with it we would always do that and especially if he then left the Niners went somewhere else and was baday and the next guy stepped in and was great I think we always all do that type of stuff because if someone right now came out and said man I think Jordan Mason at the whole league missed on him I think he is a top 10 back in this league and I think next week but let's say next week cuz he's probably going to play mhm he has 20 carries for 105 yards I think Wilds or people similar could be like well what more do you want the guy to do like what you like and so that to me is do you understand what I'm saying yeah I do I'm I'm just look all these guys are excellent iuke KD Debo mcaffrey but Brock may he might be the straw that stirs the drink like last night he iuk did nothing Debo kind of showed flashes the oldo yeah he was good KD is K but pie was the stwest third to drink last night even without macav I thought that was my nickname for the record I kind of took that this Century the straw they say yeah that's my thing okay now I know all right now we have an awkward part of this show it might work it might fall F on its face uh Nick requested to infringe upon brw's franchise asking if he could put a grade on Brock P's performance again I I don't know if Brew knew I was going to do not like we're roommates but we share a lot of stuff but all of a sudden you're trying to eat another guy's lunch like that's specifically his Brew May I a grade on Broad I I mean you have no one does grades in the world except you so it's Professor bruar thator no that is true um but you know what you can be an adjunct to okay thank you but we're kind of kind of switching roles though because I do you accuse me of occasionally moving the gold poost and I just heard everything had him ready I just the Brock because I I think we all agreed on Brock P's performance and if we can just do the comparison quickly dust between a guy who you guys thought was terrible in week one I I see a lot of similarities did they win they throw well Caleb's got one yeah I mean that doesn't literally doesn't show up in the stat sheet drop touchdown get a win by the way they both had a long of 11 yards they were both playing a six or seven win team at home from the AFC but again I try to be fair I I thought Caleb was fine I thought Brock was quite good I got to see what I got to see what this grade is they they didn't give me access to your giant report cards but I still have a great Brock pie you get wow okay what wild so stupid what what stupid it works he's an he gets he can't have the full pler the joke is a tiny you know how long I had to work to get I'm fair to the guy he get to it might not be a giant massive a but he gets an a he gets an a I give Nick some credit for that was Tiny good supposed to be a little bit of a dig cuz it was such a small gra but but your new reason that actually makes sense on why Jerry thinks the Cowboys are Super Bowl bound next on FS1 the Fox Sports channel on [Music] SiriusXM hey guys it's Nick Wright and I Are the Cowboys truly Super Bowl or bust with Dak Prescott's new deal? love to travel whether I'm heading out for work vacation or maybe just dropping into Kansas City to see a Chief's game or go to our annual parade I'm always looking for the best places to stay and that's why I turn to Airbnb anytime I stay in an Airbnb I'm reminded how great of an idea it is to Airbnb your own home while you're away maybe you yourself have stayed in Airbnb before and thought you know what I could easily turn my space into an Airbnb now that football season's back lots of fans are going to be traveling to C the game in your local city you could Airbnb your home or extra room and make some extra money while people are in town for the game whether you use that money for tickets to go cheer on your favorite team or for something else entirely your home might be worth more than you think find out how much at airbnb.com host welcome back to the show Jerry Jones was on 105.3 The Fan and he drew a direct line between Dax New Deal and you're not going to believe it the Super Bowl no no way take a listen anytime that we've ever made players the highest played player key players such as Troy Egan the the most highest paid player in the game we won Super Bowls okay CD's deal is done not the highest dax's deal is done does this make the Cowboys and they're always es boob extra es boobs extra I mean maybe for you guys that have been slow to realize that they are SB every year they have a good team no every year they have a good team when we know they don't have a quarterback when we know they're no good of course they're not ESP spop but every year they have a good team it's Championship or bus the Lakers this year now we know they're not likely to win the championship but they got a good team they're Championship robust they're not going to be happy just getting to the finals happy just getting to the conf finals same thing with the Dallas Cowboys for several reasons number one and you know this Nick this and Jerry's alluded to this will Dak Prescott ever have this much talent around him again and I know I think they're down from last year but now that he's making $60 million a year going forward Jerry's even said g be tough to put a lot of talent around him right so this year mic is playing for a contract we know he's gonna get it but he's motivated to get that huge contract become the highest paid non QB in the league and they are sbob complete can I ask question without question aren't they less than if Dak hadn't signed his deal that doesn't this by definition mean that they have more like doesn't signing the deal make it like let me just create a fanciful Universe now that this deal has been signed and I'm going to give I think a semi-realistic playoff field Detroit's the one seed San Francisco's the two seed Dallas is the three seed sure okay we all on the same page in round one Dallas hosts Philadelphia and wins Dax again it's just just round two Dallas goes to San Francisco the sight of so many of their playoff failures Dak plays great wow and they win round three they're playing the fighting Dan Campbell in Detroit and in a game very similar to last year's conference or last Year's game before the playoffs it comes down to the very end except this year Skipper correctly says I'm eligible and the Cowboys lose they're blowing it up they're firing people or they are or Jerry Jones is saying best year in 30 years this is why we signed Dak Mike McCarthy come back and we are ready to roll that's exactly what would happen the Dallas Cowboys are the following pit Bob play well in the playoffs or bust P taab play to your seat or bust yeah and maybe in FC's CG OB NFC Championship game you painted a nice scenario and we we know deks this nonsense just like must win must win can't lose all this stuff has strange meanings sbob does not mean if we lose everybody's gone so I'm I your scenario they I they probably bring Mike McCarthy back no you are the Dallas Cowboys it is never a great year if it ends without the trophy oh Greg can I get down to the real real world we're in the little bit of hypothetical I'm right I know that's why I need to turn it Jerry also is kind of what I took away from him tell me if what your take on it is now that guys are getting paid we're going to play better do you buy that I don't buy that I I think I think what he's trying to say is they don't have to worry about getting paid and so they play Freer maybe less stressed but the idea that he's going to throw out there they're the highest paid last time we had the highest paid player we won the Super Bowl all you just did was dump a whole lot more pressure right back on these guys it's also I think not true because Dak was briefly the highest paid guy already himself when he got the four for 160 so like it's just it's a little revisionist it's just it's counterproductive when you hear Mike McCarthy earlier in training camp or at the close of training camp trying to focus on one game one opponent one day one week at the time all these things right and then you have your owner who continues to throw out the b so but let's real quick let's if we can take this quote out of it which I know is weird cuz that's why we're talking about it but do you think Dak is better positioned having signed this deal or if he went into the year on an expiring deal the way I predicted like what do you think would is more likely to lead to success for the Cowboys in deak oh him not being signed oh wow really yeah that's pressure even though you know you it's motivating it's Mo It's like because you have something to prove and so now you're not only trying to prove it to the team that you want to be with but you're like in case in case y'all don't know these other 31 teams might get me okay so just quick review quarterbacks not being signed play better receivers not being signed play worse or fake injuries uh okay I wouldn't say we play worse but the fake they're a little well and because there's this receivers sometimes can get ice out of a market correct the quarterbacks he Dak knows like he's would gotten paid no matter what quickly this is what I think Jerry's doing number one I think him putting the pressure on him is why I always talk about their culture not being conducive to winning the Super Bowl and secondly I think Jerry's ticked off that he had to go this High to pay Dak and now he is saying you I just paid you 60 million a year we expect the Super Bowl no sure that's fair that that I agree we should have led with that instead of this news out of Pittsburgh no revenge for Russ Justin Fields named the starter for the Steelers two game in Denver here's coach Tomlin as I sit here today uh we're preparing as if Justin is going to be our quarterback I think that's the appropriate way to do it speculation is a waste of time uh Russell's hurt he's not available to us and so as you guys know as a general practice man I focus my energy on those that are available and their Readiness you think Russ want to play this game though like that's the thing the Broncos yeah of course and now it's the Broncos now seems so this is where and this is where you go from a little I don't want to say shod and fraud at Russ's last few years but there you know he rubs some people the wrong way with some of his stuff to now it's kind of like uh because here's the deal Russell Wilson's football career is no longer in his control that's true if it if Justin Fields is excellent Russell Wilson's days is an NFL starter over it's just over because if Fields plays well he keeps the job and nobody if Russ sits on the bench all year is going to sign him and say you're our starter now maybe he get to compete shot um next year but it happen real fast you know what I mean where that he he's the starter there's not even a competition we're bringing him in C flares up and all of a sudden again I don't think Justin's going to start all 17 but it's now there's nothing Russ can do it's about what someone else does or doesn't do which is a weird spot to be Abol and Mike Tomlin pretty much told us that when he was making a decision saying this was a very difficult decision basically saying I didn't see anything that I really wanted to see out of either one of these guys to make it an easy decision for us to say no he's our starter no matter what happens and it would be different have Russ been named a starter and it was a a distinct difference between the two like Russell W Russell Wilson is clearly better than the guy who's backing him up that's not the case so as long as you're right as long as Justin field doesn't turn the ball over which he didn't do Worried about the Ravens after Lamar Jackson misses Monday practice? Sunday like it can look as ugly as they wanted to look that's how Pittsburgh win games no I I agree look I I even as I like Russ I was saying the best case scenario for the Steelers is that Justin field shows you this year he's your quarterback of the future he obviously wasn't great in week one but he didn't turn the ball over he ran for he actually made some nice throws down the field to George Pickins so he he was efficient I think 17 for 23 if he does that and doesn't turn it over the and he's got the dynamic possibility so the Defenders have to worry about oh he he could do something with his legs so yeah I you're right Nick like it's no longer Russ's control okay coming up R Lamar Jackson misses practice uhoh I think it's just a cold well that's that's a safe bet usually with Lamar Lamar Jackson ran the ball 16 times uh on Thursday night miss practice on Monday because he was according to Mike Galo a little bit sore brw caus for concern no what is cause for celebration what oh look they should not have needed this and hopefully they didn't but it's a great wakeup call oh okay I mean all right I buy this if if Lamar didn't think I was out there tripping in game one like what you know and hard Baugh didn't say anything to him like Lamar we know you wanted this game you ran the ball exceptionally but you can't be running over guys like now you know and Lamar knows okay yes I want to run and he looked great but slide get out of bounds and let's feed Derrick Henry hello let's feed Derrick Henry I also think they need to go look more at playing Andrews and likely together and just go a little more conservative offense and then let Lamar do his thing here and there like I I think that's what they need to do and this is a wake up call yeah I look I'm concerned because I don't know if you can stop a guy from actually doing what he did like we haven't seen Lamar run for 16 have 16 carry since 2021 like he's pressing clearly he was pressing in that game but to have your quarterback lose weight say you're going to be a little bit better more impactful in the running game so you can be a little more elusive more explosive faster all the things and then go seeking contact that was the part seeking contact like I don't mind you running I absolutely don't mind you running get down I understand but you don't think that's he clearly can stop seeking contact yeah but will he oh you think it was Chiefs related not 20 think a lot of it was Chiefs related I I I actually agree with Brew I because I we've never so the 16 carries is an interesting thing because it's the exact same number Jaden Daniels had and there's an article in the Washington Post today where they were basically killing the Commander's coaching staff of column because 16 for the record Vic never did it Josh Allen's never done it cam has only done it one time Josh Allen's never done it no Josh Allen never has run 16 times in a game Mike Vic never did it cam did it once Lamar this was the 15th time exactly but it was to your point all or early in his career and he I've never seen him play a game like this where Lamar when he would run a lot most of the time nobody would touch him like Glide out of bounds or you know to get skinny this time he was trying to prove a point and it did feel to me like it was Kansas City related the reason I concerning Wilds is when you play on a Thursday Monday is your Thursday and by that I mean if they had played Sunday your four days removed he's not able to practice that would have been their Thursday practice so he's sore sore yeah you know what I mean like the it's not early in the it is early in their next week but they're pretty far removed from that game and so I think Bru I don't want to say spin it in a negative way but idea of that it could be a wakeup call is smart because that was not a sustainable way to play Just quickly almost won the game like I I know everyone's like shouldn't have done it shouldn't have done it he like man you know what needed to do it maybe some some type of vibe he was yelling at his line like maybe Lamar looked at the situation like you know what we need tough Lamar right now I got I got to hit the Champs in the mouth wouldn't have been worth I mean it would have been a great motivation had you won but it's game one I think worth just little if he gets beat up a little bit and then now he's not quite as good the rest of the season see I I think I think at this stage in his career he just has to know the importance of what he means to this team long run long term like you can't I Nick still concerned about Stefon Diggs on the Texans? get it if you want to play with the edge play with Edge if you want to run more I had no problem with the amount of times he run ran I had an issue when you see a guy on a sideline and it's like oh let me go and dip my shoulder bro you are a quarterback like it is a difference when guys are hitting you and then you're hitting them right that's that's the right point it's because even if it is Chiefs we got to have it most of these plays did not help the team correct like the runs did but I'm saying the like I'm initiating contact it's not like he was every time he was going for a first down it was just he was trying to prove a point that one toe in you get a two-point conversion they win Lamar you played tough you he's like I needed it it was a must-win I was watching first things first thanks for that board Kevin wild coming up in nine short minutes it's the iciest segment in all sports momes mountain right now afternoon headlines sponsored by Ram trucks they are built to serve Texans put on a show against the Colt CJ completed 75% of his passes 234 yards two touchdowns both to Stefon now before the season we were concerned about him fitting in a crowded wide receiver room but here's Stefon in those moments when they lean on you it's because they trust you in those big moments fourth down money on the floor trust number one here's the numbers Stefon had 33 receiving yards only two touchdowns uh Nico and tank had uh more yards tank D didn't pretty good um so Nick are you still worried about Stefon fitting in well yeah listen I think stefon's a combustible player and I think he is not he is certainly not going to be the number one option on his team for the first time since his Rook a year and we'll see how he deals with it and even when he says money downs one of the most underrated important plays of the entire weekend CJ strout's first like oh if he wins MVP I'll think back to this moment the third and 11 to ice the game they're only up two there's 2 minutes left it's third and 11 Indie has moved the ball at will Anthony Richardson's just firing balls downfield and he throws to niik Collins on the sideline he gets it what I found very interesting was how Bobby slowick used these guys cuz these numbers are jarring which is how far did the ball travel in the air on average when it was thrown to you right for ston digs though that's not a misplaced decimal less than two yards that's good roll for Colin exactly this isn't a negative for Nico 16 yard in the air tank 16 yards in the air they are using Diggs Greg you speak to it better than me as a technician route Runner sure hands and they're using the other guys as a big plus do we remember a couple weeks ago when I told you exactly what these three were going to bring to the table I thought I said that Stefon Diggs was the route Runner he's the precise guy that he's going to get the ball on third Downs he's going to be that possession guy that's exactly what they're doing they have the big play guys again like he this is this is what this is why I believe he's going to thrive this year because when you have a guy under Center like CJ stra who has the ability to make any and every throw we've seen that and be as as big play moment as we've seen in this league as a star goes under Center and you have three guys that can get the ball down the field if you need to can run any route on the route tree one guy who can create unbelievable separation in tank Dale and you got a guy who can con make contested catches and a another guy who's your third kind of option second kind of option and Stefon Diggs who can run routes make contested catches and just be sure handed for a quarterback it's a win-win situation why would he why would he be combustible no he's not it's very smart of them because as you said Dell and Collins are going to be their big play guys but it's like it's almost like we have this package for ston to keep him happy right cuz you're going to those those short throws right and it can be effective my question know Greg is what if he did now he did have six catches which isn't bad but what if he didn't have the two touchdowns what if it was just six catches 33 yards good question and tank Dell's got 70 yards instead of 40 and one touch like if that happens more often than not that's when Mahomes Mountain I wonder how Stefan gonna handle it well we watched it for the second half of all last year and he yeah and he and he ended up leaving yeah but he he left but he didn't cause any issue what issue did he so now so now so now what you're saying is I don't think he needed to why do you have to leave you had one of the best quarterbacks in the league and you had a seriously though was running course I agree with Greg I didn't think he was a bad guy the last half year but it was the stuff he did yeah that before the end of the season that's what it was but that was when he was getting the ball I he was unhappy what is it it's Texans Bears next weekend very similar they third wide receiver in Chicago if they're all healthy Keenan Allen's going to be the technician there's other two guys are going except live from New York I don't even know anymore it's the second hour of first things first today Aaron roders Thinking Super Bowl even after the loss Greg has a very hot take I got a great question for you Greg all righto I'm saving it then uh meanwhile any of your questions yeah it's a great question okay I'm about Aaron Rogers showing guys up with the eye roll I'm EXC like buddy you know all eyes are on you you're like I'm going let them know that was not my fault yeah great I teased it uh meanwhile are the Packers in trouble if they turn to Malik Willis but right now a special M [Music] [Applause] Mountain well here we are week one of climbing the mountain done and honestly much tougher than I thought I only made it 93 yard to here Camp Caleb right now it's time for the second edition of the iciest quarterback ranking in all of sports buckle up it's time for momes Mountain ah hotter than I thought it's well done Kevin Wilds it you know in a weekend when there were you know more than a dozen quarterbacks who turned ball over a handful of quarterbacks who lost their team's games that Mr much like I have never a doubt tattooed here Wilds has on the small of his back tattooed wins our quarterback stat so I would I would think that you would I would think that you would give Caleb a little more credit also let me just tell the audience one thing early in the year the mountain is quite slippery this the snow hasn't fully formed the weather's warm at so a lot of movement early in the later in the less movement you have more firm fo and more of a basis of a season permafrost has really taken hold not sure that's how permafrost works I think it's always Frozen that's why it's called per Frost off the mountain uh all right listen Jordan love is not off because of his play he didn't play great obviously but he wouldn't have gotten off Mountain but he's hurt Deshawn is off the mountain Daniel Jones off the mountain Russ will Levis Bryce young and Bone Knicks all of those people were already off or they were bottom row guys so their performance slid them off and you might say Nick so are we still even going to have 28 people on the mountain we are row seven shout out Sam darnold for making it on the mountain shout out Jobe brette for making it on the shout out Justin fields for making it on the mountain and Shout Out jamus Winston and Drew lock for getting on the mountain because they should be starting for their teams this is only four starting quarterbacks for in these case two guys who will be and should be starting quarterbacks for the Browns and the Giants Jaden and Garder stay where they're at row six listen Kyler some good and some bad he stays where he is g a one bad pick other than that I thought he played well but he stays where he is Rogers has to slide Wilds how many games without throwing through 24 games 24 games 1,3 days Tom Brady has two 400 yard games Centon Rogers has W 300 yard game and Tom Brady's been tired for two seasons Derek car moves up Derek Carr Mountain historian checking in first time not on the bottom row or off the mountain since week 10 last year wow look at Derek car and then Kurt Cousins and Jaylen Herz both have to slide a row given their performance last week to row five one of my favorite rows Brock pie look at Brock py Brock what do you mean he moved up he's he's now knocking on the door of the top top 10 this is the a row this is the guys 11 to 15 I don't know Mike sand 50 NFL XX ranked him 12 it looks like the mountain might have a little same or more respectful jar golf I no it doesn't I said M uh Anthony Richardson out here just throw nine completions for 210 yards I love it hit or miss and then listen the mountain is fair the mountain can be cruel the prince slides one road Caleb with the biggest slide of anyone this week slides two full roads on the mountain despite not turning the ball over getting a win and a key twoo conversion that doesn't show up any stat sheets except but well listen it does but it doesn't count for some reason it's like an inseon tournament Championship or a play in I'm just telling you it literally you look it up you're like hey I saw Caleb throw a pass be caught in the end zone why isn't that box SC two-point conversion doesn't count for some reason all right row four B show let's go third time ever in the top 10 on the mountain good for him uh Tua has to move up he Le leads the league in passing yards again again uh and I almost moved Lamar down wow but the fear of Wild's ey and the board and Lamar sending another one of those pictures of that monkey with the giant nose and response to me I couldn't deal with it that's really caught on on the Internet it's not nice America Row three stoud stays where he is and I almost moved him up one but you'll see who's above him and I just couldn't find place for Joe Burrow's got a slide uh you could argue his slide should have been as precipitous as Caleb's he of course actually did lose yeah uh but and didn't have much more production than Caleb but burrow has a slightly larger body of work as a pro than Caleb so he has a little more margin of error and then Dak Prescott moved up yeah I didn't think Dak made a mistake I thought you're in a tough environment against a great defensive line the added pressure of not only signing that contract but that sweet Blazer he was wearing walk in he performed and now to the top three row two Josh Allen stays where he is and Matt Stafford moves up man puka is out you're on your third string left tackle you lose Steve Avala you're you're holding together with Scotch tape and you lead a 14-point comeback on the road against a team a lot of people think is going to the Super Bowl you once again just can't quite get it done against the Detroit Lions but I thought Stafford was brilliant and then of course Lian t actic Patrick Mahomes stays a top his namesake Mountain after last week Greg you weren't here Coach man jeie ripped the mountain apart and these guys like Jackal on the hill were just hooting and hollering rooting for him this week's mountain is beyond reproach your thoughts yeah I I'm not I'm not going to rip the mountain apart um I will say Matthew Stafford played a heck of a game I thought he had one of the better days and my guy Baker wow your guy yeah I'm going to talk about Baker because I don't know how many times we're going to have this moment to be able to talk about Baker Baker had one of the best performances of week one yes if not the best performance out of all the quarterbacks of week one and if he Baker were someone else or if he had made it work in Cleveland and had not fallen off from good graces and gone into Carolina and made it work and now all of a sudden is on his revised contract and last leg if you will making it work down in Tampa Bay with the Buccaneers I think Baker would be giving more will be getting more credit than he's been given Baker Mayfield in my opinion and you going to say the mountain is not left or right it would be above Herbert for me with what he was able to do off of last season into the playoffs literally took the Detroit Lions to the brink could have won that game fell short not because of his performance rolled right into this season and jumped took W right where he left off Baker Mayfield you have been impressive my friend I'm going to give you your flowers right now I don't know how much Elite quarterback play you're going to have for the remainder of the season but right now you're playing like an elite quarterback my friend and Greg sour I mean his last seven games averaging around 300 yards one 105 or 107 something quarterback rating listen I agree with you entirely as you very well do know the mountain isn't left to right so he's not ahead or behind Justin Herbert they're just just next to each other because it has to you know there has to be some order go were you going to say something bro no no I'm I'm rock and roll no oh Brew's just excited Brew's champing at the bit as they say Brew go right ahead cuz I agree with you on Baker you could never be too I'm not focused on this guy but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention it Caleb should be lower I mean he he just how far do you want him to SL like probably that last row I mean just just now he can move up but he was bad all right last row I'm going focus on Brock though I I want P to move up and Dak to move down because Brock Pie has beaten Dak Prescott in the playoffs Brock py in his short year and a half career has gone to two NFC championship games one Super Bowl which Dak Prescott of course has never done in his eight previous Seasons he's only won two playoff games py won two of those in his uh rookie year uh last year so pery should should have been higher but then week one this is what happened let's look at the numbers py has a better passer rating per has a more yards he throws for yards per attempt is a significant difference completion percentage as well and Dak did have one touchdown B py also Nick had four passes completions of 20 or more air yards one completion of 30 or more air yards Dak only had two of 20 or more and one of 30 or more so perie was I think came in with more credentials and then was better in week one so I think he should be higher so listen if I thought pry played well yesterday uh I don't think he was better in week one I think dak's numbers are some of the more misleading numbers of the weekend because when they started the game and when it was a close game they he did whatever they wanted move the ball down the field and then once they were up multiple scores and it was very clear Cleveland was not starting an NFL caliber quarterback and they drew they pulled everything back and got Uber conservative as far as what you what you're saying that they should have started the year in different places Brew you throw MVP race in front of me all the time as far as how they should have started the year about how pretty came in Forth uh Dak Prescott did come in second in that but I am also most curious about this you want perie and Dak to flip-flop is what you're saying not so much that I'm just saying I think pie should move up I still would probably have Lamar next to burrow but py up you know up up one and then okay all right well I was going to say you're going to have pry ahead of lar I know you you avoided that bear trap so well done KW we are giving Joe burrow a Grace that we give to no other excellent quarterback because why he got hurt at the end of last year and hurt at the beginning of the year but he had a little period where he was excellent and reminded you of the Joe borrow that was in the Super Bowl this Sunday Joe borrow was terrible just like he is at the beginning of most of the seasons that he plays here is the worst records in weeks one and two because a rich tapestry it's a little bit looking back little bit looking forward Joe burrow is one in8 lost to the Patriots and now he's got the Chiefs great quarter on that graphic okay now he's got the chiefs with extra rest he's got to go into Arrowhead maybe he does this Joe burrow thing and pulls off a miracle against Mahomes maybe he starts the season 0 and2 in this graphics has one and nine say dirty pool what you did minimum seven starts even though burrow has nine and everyone else has nine just to get Trevor on the graphic I know what you and Josh are fing up there that they did it just to get more that is a pure bur only everyone else has n minimum seven go ahead any event uh then Joe B just didn't look like himself the the beginning of last year the calf hurt so he couldn't throw the ball deep he was one of the worst quarterbacks in the league said no big deal it's the calf well he didn't throw the ball deep against the Patriots either now maybe the Patriots defense is just way better than everyone gives them credit for I buy some of that but just emotionally there was no fear in my heart of Joe burrow inflicting any damage on us and they like well here's the other excuse T wasn't there T's got his hamstring well well he's usually okay without him but he wasn't okay against the Patriots and again I maybe this is just a very Pro Patriots uh segment but if it was I would probably be like hey it's all Patriots telling you Joe burrow does not look the same and there was there was enough is his wrist okay talk during the broadcast that makes me think something is up here's how much talk I wanted about his wrist in the broadcast zero uh not one thing he's 100% fine don't we don't talk about dak's ankle in the broadcast we don't have to talk about Jo bro RIS but there was enough and enough of these I see enough there's enough of these let's see a little bit of that see a little bit that uhoh I'm right there I'm on hobble watch I'm on wristwatch he doesn't wrist watch that's a youever heard of that yeah well a different context IED it um all right so I am going I to do something I rarely do which is say first of all I think you make some good points second of all I also think you almost assuredly watched Bengals Patriots closer than most of America I'm locked the you know what I mean no it's just it's the it's one o00 kick right and you have the I I think you're one of the only people outside of New England Cincinnati had the sound on it you know what I mean like I'm watching six games and I'm following it so I if they were talking about his wrist I didn't hear just a little bit two basketballs before the game so yeah so I so I I buy your analysis on this to a degree but you're also correct that I am giving Joe burrow a Grace because that first graphic to me almost works against you not against you but works in Joe's favor which is he's bad at the beginning of every season but then and then also yeah but meet me in week three in the mountain then but well early in the season where do you want me to put him what do you want where he deserves to be in the guys for where he deserves to be based off last year is had a Lamar because he's better than Lamar he's not better than Lamar if Lamar Lamar was the whole offense running around hitting people throwing touchdowns throwing almost touchdowns Joe B was doing nothing no Lamar was way better in week one there's no doubt about that's what well what are we talking about it's a rich tap it's not a rich and I told you Like what you saw in Aaron Rodgers' return from injury? week and he's bad week two well let's see let's see I can't predict he's going to bead and when they go head to-head who wins Lamar Lamar get the board out four and one I don't want to rip Joe bur I like Joe bur I like his haircut you don't like Joe burrow you put no I like Lamar Joe bur you got to put Joe bur on P take Wilds was 2 hours ago in the office bellowing how low can he go Joe the whole time you bellowing I was trying to do a Get Low thing show I wasn't like going to work on the railroad okay I don't even know what that is I don't even know what that means in any event uh coming up next are we done with the mom yeah we're done who says Get Low Josh look that up is that yingyang twins maybe I think so coming up next back to go to the wall yeah no I was going to but I've got flag football so there's 10 a.m. big noon kickoff live from Madison it's Alabama Wisconsin at noon that's going to look so Cox yes it's going to be great Alabama in Madison is going to look so cool also might be a lot of Alabama fans we looked at hotel rooms not available uh back to San Francisco where Aaron Rogers Second Debut was totally fine just like the pizza place closest to your house yeah sure uh completes 13 passes 167 yards here's Salah and Aaron roders it's a championship outfit and they introduced us to some championship football and uh we'll get that fixed they are a championship level group um and I hope we see them there okay did that look like the old Rogers or an old Rogers uh it looked like an old Rogers and there were moments where eight kind of flashed like he was 12 oh couple of those throws but they weren't they weren't it wasn't enough clearly wasn't enough um what I will say is if you're a Jets fan you have to feel good about the idea that you have a quarterback that when you're in situations like on that scoring Drive third Downs you see him making all the adjustments putting his offensive line and protection calls giving signals to your receivers giving everybody an opportunity to where we can get be in a advantageous situation from a play call standpoint that was great outside of that he's Limited in Mobility I mean it this is a version of Aaron Rodgers that is going to be so different because we've all we've all been accustomed to seeing him get outside the pocket extend the plays throw off one leg off off script offset all these things that is no more show the show The Passing chart I want Greg to react to it Greg cuz I don't know if you saw these dots but it's where he threw the football yesterday and uh I can figure that out yeah like and so like that that's also not Aaron roders that I understand it's week one and and some people are like a that's a chavar chavaria w Ward chart I get that former Chief great Super Bowl champ but he's not shutting down a whole side of a field like that that's that's just that's what Rogers and and hacket were com and so where where what I see is a offense that's super vanilla that doesn't use a lot of motion that doesn't use a lot of mixing up what you what you're going to get from a Personnel variation um like when we see the San Francisco 49ers they're Mo they're constant motion everybody's switching up they're trying to get a Advantage from a Personnel standpoint matchup standpoint if I'm if I feel like Debo has an advantage well I'm going to him to someone that gives him a distinct Advantage we didn't see that with the Jets I I I don't know if we saw it one time and this is something that Aaron has job is that usually it's it's usually the offensive coordinators however I will say this Aaron Rogers has never really cared for a bunch of motion when we saw him with Matt laflor it was like okay you're going to run this offense that we have and you got to trust me and then once he completely bought in MVP level but this is not not what Aaron Rogers likes he likes to see everybody in this in the same position so he can dictate the terms I I want Brew to go but I also want to tell the audience something and you something you just kind of made me and Wild's life a little harder the next six months why because he said so much of what Brew said in the first segment and Brew does fashion himself a bit of a you know he an athlete like no no no no no and so no is that true hold on I went to Greg's sweet yeah with an idea I said this is what I'm thinking what what do you think about that he confirmed I exactly wide High School brw thinks we have two wide receivers on the show and you're one of them and he's one them they would had gloves when I play oh it would have been o okay all right go ahead I'm sorry bro go ahead but but I look I agree with Greg like I was saying this I've been saying this about Rogers I think he'll be somewhere in between the Green last year in Green Bay and MVP Aaron roggers I but I think closer to the MVP Aaron roggers yesterday he was closer or almost exactly like the the last year in Green Bay yes and he and look their if their defense plays the way we think it should if Bree Hall holds on to the football then maybe they just need a good Aaron Rodgers and he might not have to be special he didn't look special last night and I like Greg said I just wonder cuz look the years before leflour got there the now the SEC the year right before he got there he was pretty good he had 25 touchdowns two picks but the year before that people thought oh he's falling off and then he gets with leflour in a little more like you said all the pre-nap motion and stuff and he goes back to MVP Aaron Rogers I'm just wondering does he need that type of stuff that lefl put in there now at 40 years old no Mobility or at least not compared to what he used to have and that's that's a question mark I do have about him the well yeah I I mean I don't think this is all about Aaron yesterday and we can get to the other stuff I know you wanted to ask Greg something about Aaron before but I I think that Andy Reid Kyle Shanahan are probably on a tier by themselves as far as offensive Minds in the league in that very next group I think McVey uh I laflor I really like Kevin oconnell I'm sure I'm leave you know what I mean there's but he had one of the best I think the Jets right now offensive coaching staff is in the running for one of the worse well then it's isn't it his job to butress that no I'm not well even if it's not even if it's not his job to butress it he's the reason that that's the the staff yeah it's not giving him excuse I'm I'm not making excuse I'm saying why I don't think it's going to get a lot better like I think that we saw and to brw point that it looked a lot like his last year in Green Bay numbers wise it was almost identical to his last game in Green Bay they lost they scored in the teens he had mediocre production one touchdown one pick almost identical pass rating uh I I still don't understand Wilds why people think this is going to be dramatically better than last night like I that's about what I expected and I don't know and I think people are lying to themselves when they act like it is a huge s reason for optimism that he still throws a great ball Greg right now if we went outside and there was a pro quarterback could you catch if you're just standing there could you will you be able to catch better than 99% of human beings until you're 60 years old but you couldn't play in a football game right now no peel Aaron's going to be able to throw like there are I understand there are certain guys um that you know Breeze his arm got shot Big Ben his arm got shot but Dan Marino to this day can throw a pretty ball practi correct that does not make you an n like like oh we saw the old Aaron Rogers no we didn't people they tried to be like oh there was a flash of the old Aaron Rogers no it wasn't the in the long incompletion I was impressed by I was like oh we still got it a little bit it was just a long I don't think arm strength is going to be a problem I think all of the things that go into playing NFL quarterback and all and all of the things that where your coaching staff can help you are all going to work against him this year quickly great you mentioned it in the a block missed pass I forgot what it was a little bit of Aaron Rogers first third down of the game Lazard dropped it and then then Breeze Hall and it was like shot to Aaron Rogers like let's say unhappy do you think hey it's football it is what it is his emotions are going to be his emotions or does he have a responsibility to kind of be a little bit more I don't know all the cameras are going to be on Aaron Rogers any reaction is going to be uh magnified and I feel like we critique wide receivers if they kind of like show up their quarterback does it work in Reverse also yeah I mean he's going to be who he is like that's who he is like he's going to be disgusted if a guy drops a ball that they should catch and to your point he's going to be he's going to always be accurate with the ball he's going to always be able to put the ball where he wants to the expectation is for you to reciprocate what your job is and that's catch the ball and that's what alanar didn't do yeah but also some of this stuff though does you're like your first third down of the year the if the Jets have all these weapons that I've been hearing about all summer why is Alan Lazard the guy like Allan Lazard has had a nice career he trust him but on that pack you can't blame him for throwing that to Lazard it would have been a first down had he caught it no but I but so I I kind of do because I don't think Alan Lazard is on the Jets without Aaron Rogers I think Alan I think we we' seen these things that's that's a fact that's a fact and he has this huge contract so even though they all this Talent they're using him alen lazard's not a reliable receiver in 2024 he's not like it's just I I again I just I I I hear you if it's game on the line or it was the first series of the game and he was open yeah and you could you could continue a drive that obviously would have been a little more meaningful than just going three and out three in out and then a fumble all the things so it was import it was important yeah it it's just your first drive as a jet I just just I don't know there were just a lot of little breadcrumbs of oh this isn't going to go well and we're not even talking about the defense which supposed to be great allowing eight straight scoring drives well they it was py on the other side to be fair so uh py 19 for 29 231 yards verbatim text from Brew he's out playing a Hall of Famer by Leaps and Bounds C Street surgical heame for us as an offense it's like man we want to score tough touchdowns and we're hard on ourselves about you know like the I think it was like a third and8 or third and 10 and coming up short and it's like man like you know there's areas where we want to push each other and and get a little better and that starts with me you need a bear shirt you need a bear shirt I pray last night started a little bit slow and then heated up no Brew this is the worst this is just you want okay RW were you impressed by wild okay I didn't even ask it this is not even about Nick moving the goal par you just said he needs a better shirt that's moving the gold post he needs a better shirt he's just saying he's a franchise quarterback in this league he shouldn't look cousins exactly you your okay all right go sorry go ahead I don't even know what the question I know cuz you were so happy to take out the cheap Goal Post Yeah were you impressed by a CMC less 49ers Squad you're supposed to go at Nicks you said he couldn't win cmc's like I never said that I said it about Trent Williams like well you you insinuated you said he couldn't winr mcaf no I mean they have a run game and mcaffrey is great but they have always had a really good run game even before mcaffrey got there uh Raheem moard averaged five and a half yards a carry when they got to the Super Bowl uh Elijah Mitchell was good for them Jeff Wilson so it goes back I thought yesterday that Hy I I it's going to be interesting this year cuz remember last year he and mcaffrey were in that battle to see which Niner would be in the MVP race pie is I said it earlier the straw that stirs the drink to the offense all the other guys are great we kind of see it in Philly like now we're and you to your credit you were early on jayen but they got weapons Galore they probably got better weapons or right there with San Francisco can jayen get it done we see py continuously getting it done with these weapons so I was it was impressive of course I would have liked to seeing py push it into the end zone of course and he iuk dropped the ball but that's an offense with no mcaffrey with Brandon iuk clearly Rusty two drops and they rolled over what we think is a good defense so yeah I was very impressed it it was impressive to see them impose their will on a defense that was supposed to be the this Juggernaut and stop the run and not allow a team to just line up and punch him in the mouth every single play uh outside of that like I Kyle Shanahan was like I mean run it again guys right yeah run run it again it was like it was like on repeat so I can't clearly the most dominant the the dominant team on the field in a completely different class than the New York Jets and a great win but it wasn't as it was impressive because of how it looked and how physically dominating they were when you go back a couple weeks and you don't have a aukin camp and you don't have Trent Williams available and you have Chris mcaffrey clearly not practicing every day like and to go out there and look like that like you just you got out coach you got out Personnel you got out everything that's just when they talk about this is the championship outfit we play yeah and you're nowhere close Jets I I know Salah said it was a championship outfit I mean they I mean they're not but they could be NFC champion yeah we're talking conference Champion oh is that what he meant is that what he could have me NFC West Division Champions state state champions maybe too I don't know I didn't know I didn't know I when they I just they I watched that whole pregame yesterday I didn't see those I didn't see those banners hanging like maybe they dropped it before the broadcasts their opening game you would think they won the conference Championship last year they'd have dropped a banner for it I don't know um but so I this was a I thought pie played really well after the shaky opening couple drives I mean I won't admit it I I sent Greg a smart ass text the same one I sent you guys I sent Greg I sent Greg a gift of Daniel Jones waving and I wrote Brock fie without CMC I did do that and it was just what wild was trying to get to um after I think the two for six start but then after that honest to God I thought there was one drive he was shaky at late in the mid third quarter he missed a guy and somebody got hit and Troy kind of critiqued him for it other than that I didn't see him miss a pass really you know what I mean there was that the beginning of the game the one drive everything else he was accurate on everything like you said yeah he had one nice scramble he was pushing the ball down field so this is where I think the stats can be deceiving I thought this was a more impressive performance than some of those 120 passer rating three touchdown games he had last year I thought he played really really well and go ahead go were you impressed I know we just did Mahomes Mountain but we saw so many quarterbacks not play up to their potential I banged on Joe B like Joe Bro didn't look like Joe B yes p is look like hey it's fine is it is it it feels like week 19 like I'm still going for yes I I think I am including in the context of how he how where I would rank this his performance amongst all the quarterbacks I saw this week and like off the top of my head I think Mahomes was better I think Baker was better there's another obvious really good Stafford maybe two was close you two was in better numbers but I didn't wouldn't the car for sure Josh Allen and that's Pro you know what I mean so right there so like the top six or seven performance of the weekend and doing it without mcaffrey does matter to me now even though Mason did a hell of a Christian mcaffrey impersonation I also think the big story for the ners is Mason doing Packers will not put Jordan Love on IR. Malik Willis will start at QB if he is out this because I think mcaffrey could be out right let him rest let him rest the ESPN had a good article that said their next two games are on Turf I didn't even think about that it's like oh you want to keep him away from Turf with this yeah he shouldn't play yeah especially if Mason can do this do you want to um did you send any texts to Grant Con in all your broadcast yeah we haven't heard his name he got all the interceptions out of his the first text on the the chain was about Greg con right on the the just so you know his people have reached out and he is trying to get on the show and if you bait me a few more times sometime you'll see him in the I know going go right cooking okay uh coming up next should Packers fans be worried what about make the super I'm feeling good you are Vegas thinks the Packers are in trouble now Silver Lining news out of Green Bay Jordan love injured but not going on the IR Malik Willis lated to start but yesterday Matt lafl said he's not ruling out love tell that to my ex-wife don't have an for this week's game against Colts take a listen what's the possibility of Jordan actually being ready for I it couldn't give you a percentage but if he gets cleared we'll give him every opportunity like we always will and um you know I know he's doing everything in his power I know we're he's spending a lot of time trying to get get back as as soon as possible but certainly we're not going to put him in a position where if he can't protect himself that he'd go out there okay he was going to be out for three to six weeks and all I mean listen this is where the NFL's a little silly this is where coaches really do pretend it's the nuclear codes we everyone knows that Jordan loves out this week now maybe he'll be back sooner than people thought but you are not giving yourself any Edge against the Colts by being like who knows guys like so but I mean it's to me that's silly we know he's not playing uh Super Bowl odds dropped from plus 1,600 to plus 3500 they became underdogs to make the playoffs ties the Packers with the Rams and dare I say it the flirty bears oh yeah there you go okay so are the Packers in trouble now well it depends on how long Love's out this is obviously good news it seems like it won't even be four games they hope they hope it's not yeah I mean Indie this going to be a tough It's winnable Malik Willis that's the thing he's he's not good all right and they they ran the ball really well against Philly I know they're going to try to you know do that and that's what they got to lean into let's run the football maybe see if Willis can hit some underneath stuff because they got a great receiving core but hopefully he'll be back to Indie Tennessee Minnesota so that's those are three games you can win right and then it gets really rough so he needs to be back by would you Greg I'd call Ryan Tanner I I would no I agree with that look this is this is what bothers me this is why the Packers are in this situation because they didn't pick up the phone and call some when you look at the Kansas City Chiefs like they yes they have Patrick Mahomes we know that but if he was out three weeks they'd be alive in every game with Carson Wentz right aive why because they prepare to sustain success you prepare you don't you don't do this when you have a team and a roster that you feel like you can compete with and so for me the reason why I I they're not out but yes they're in trouble right now in the current moment because Malik like you might conceptually have to change the identity of how you run your offense now because unless something drastically changes and he can throw the football now you're going to have four receivers out there that are going to be looking like you just have to run the ball with Josh Jacobs lure must have seen something obviously think Love's Gonna Get hurt but why why would he go after Willis so I have a my theory on that is that they were like hey this is essentially a distressed asset this is a guy some people thought was going to go in the first round he was a relatively high draft pick we're going to get him for nothing from Tennessee and he's going to have a year correct he's going to have a year in the practice in our meetings a real he's never been around a real offensive mind in the NFL they're probably thinking and maybe we can get that Talent out of it someone raised their hand like yeah just quick question didn't the Jets just try to do that remember high draft pick kind of distressed but they had him in the building don't have to worry about it but the Cowboys at least have a backup already in Cooper rush I agree I think they there was who's there is it Shawn Manion I forget the kid who was their backup last year he's still there on the practice squad Sean Clifford is his name um I so but if you remember Wilds when this happened you kind of not the injury when they got Malik Willis you threw it at us in a weird and wonderful and I didn't want to be mean but I was like no Malik Willis is not an quarterback and he's not right now so if we can show that Packers schedule again listen you could beat the Colts maybe you just run the ball I think Colts are fine but I would 100% call Ryan Tano and be like listen buddy Revenge G Revenge game against the Titans you get to play a game against the Vikings and maybe another one against the Rams and then you're back up the rest of the way with a really good team whose quarterback just got hurt maybe you get to play and because Brew I think they they can if they are one in four they're not dead but their own life support well and the schedule's tough correct two and three though two and two is what right I was the and so and you can beat the I mean even if you started Malik Willis I don't know that you have the worst quarterback in the Titans game Malik Willis will Levis I mean that is just a I mean by the way they're both former Titans as is corre um and so and the Vikings I I think the Sam darnold you know blo will off the rose a bit we'll we'll see but I just I don't understand why they didn't have more of a contingency I would have totally supported the Malik Willis move in the format of the Tre Lance move we're we're bring we're going to bring you in as our third string emergency quarterback and uh to develop you long term now it doesn't seem to have worked out for Trey but still it wasn't going to hurt the Cowboys this one Could someone beat Caleb Williams for OROY? I I didn't understand at the time I don't understand now I do have an important question though how if he's only gone three weeks even if they go 0 and three Brew doesn't get to activate his contingency super they have to be on the IR or he have to miss at least four weeks of time yeah I I need to look in the bylaws people missed yesterday Brew made a contingency Super Bowl pick of the 90s request and and just as In fairness that's true the quarterback got hurt yeah yes but if he only misses three weeks then the 49ers and then you bailed on your Falcon pick your a bake show guy see he's Tred he also like you know what I want to do for M Mountain Baker oh yeah he's trying that is actually quite smart Savvy Savvy Savvy uh Dusty are we going a break I think so coming up next Caleb Still lock for Rookie of the Year spoil absolutely not our YouTube channel get a subscription to our YouTube trying to get to a million views and then we will have finally caught Mr Beast uh tomorrow it's the greatest segment in all sports power rankings no what do we look like a Marriott in downtown Springfield Massachusetts no it's Nick's te uh but right now Jaden's Rookie of the Year up jumped up to plus 300 still in second behind Caleb but it is a jump yeah should Caleb be worried about this award well okay well first of all I don't think Caleb should care about this award but I don't think I think the question is oh look who's number four oh my goodness gracious um should be so here's the thing Jaden obviously individually played better in week one than Caleb Caleb I I think it was bad for the show because you guys expected me to be like here's why Caleb played great and I he obviously didn't I mean Caleb had didn't expect you Caleb had I mean he I mean he did I mean they did win and he didn't the twoo conversion and the drop touchdown all those things did happen um but I still think Caleb is the rightful favorite because it's not about who would win it now it's about who you think's going to win it and we maybe talk more about this tomorrow Washington needs to immediately change how they're using Jaden Daniels you can't ask this kid to run the you can't ask any quarterback to run the ball 16 times you certainly can't ask quarterback to run the ball 16 times weighs 195 lbs you just can't so like I don't think that's sustainable for the whole year so no and a lot of that was on him when that first read wasn't there he was just running um that's fair look right now Caleb should still be favored because it's week one of 18 but it looks like it's going to be a closer race than we think and what's interesting is let's say the Bears do make the playoffs Caleb's okay jaylen's better individually but they win six games then oh K makes the playoffs and he's just average I think they'll he'll win Rookie of the Year unless one of these other guys is spect jump not I know you know you know I'm M Jones guy but when Jamar won it when MC Jones made the playoffs that's how I see the argument for Xavier winning it but Jamar had crazy numbers or Marvin Harrison Jr Kyler just locks in on him a little bit that was weird that for the Arizona offense to be as good as it was and Marvin do nothing like kind of lost him the game IGN him uh speak is up next we'll see you tomorrow at 3:00
