It was bowed down. It was bowed. We had 12 hours, folks. You have 12 hours. Yeah, that went upside down. Welcome back. It is the mid-day show. Hugh Douglas show, Julia. I did say 11, 15. I would have an official statement. So listen, here's the deal. This side. No, listen, I just want to say this. I mean, I was wrong. Dead wrong. Not not. And it's so wrong that I got new halfway through the game. I was like, man, this thing went belly up. It wasn't even a contest the second half. I will say though, much like when I revealed something that I was privately thinking last year about Tanner McKee, I thought it was a safe space. I thought a bold prediction segment is supposed to be bold. And I thought, you know, it happens, right? You make a bold prediction. It goes bad. You kind of move on. But I obviously people are hanging on it. So I mean, you guys are right. I was wrong. The Rams probably a little high. 20 and O was a little bit. It was lofty. It was a little lofty. And now they're own one. I still think they're going to end up a quite a good team and quite a great

team and be in the mix with a certain ball. But last night, they got their ass kicked. I will take the L. They got dry. Yep. Do you think it was worse than your Bryce Hough prediction? If years ago, we do. That's what we're doing. I was just asking. So you back up. Got a bad prediction. Now you want to bring it back to me. Well, yours was great one. I mean, it's one that we saw as those legs years later. Is it worse? Yeah, it is. I don't think so. It was hyperbiosal, super hyperbolic. At least mine was based in and some kind of, you know, there was a chance. Not a shot chance. Wait a little second. Right. So I've had 10 sacks when he was with the with the jets. But a lot of guys have 10 sacks. Yeah. I mean, but you know, how I was 10 was special. She came from Memphis. What was the translate to the old time NFL sacra? He was the came from Memphis. Oh, what? Nobody cares again. When I'm wrong with him, if you're just going to sing it, no, no, you're not. No, we're not letting you sing for the day. Starting about this start. It's all right. But I'm excited about the price. This is the right. I have to do it. Any. Okay. I made a mistake. Okay. But that was last year. Let's talk about Joe's mistake. He

used to. Yes. Well, I just addressed mine. It was crazy. It was two years. It was a huge L big L. Let's hear Sean McVay took. I mean, he took the LS and I just predicted they win a lot of games. Sean McVay last night in Australia after he took his team there like 24 hours before the game. Then they got their ass kicked. Let's hear it. They had coach the Rams had a say. Here before you give your takes, then I get a lot of notes. Lesson. I actually want to steal some McVay statement there and apply it to my prediction that they go undefeated. It's good. It was a humbling day for me yesterday that I made that prediction. Also, it will define me only if I allow it to. So the yesterday's ball prediction that the Rams will go undefeated the season is not going to define the Hugh because I'm not going to allow it to define any of my predictions. You know, you know what I heard? Even the bad ones. You know, when I heard him talking. What do you hear? I heard a guy who tried to cover every question that was going to be asked to him in one

shot. I agree. That so that he wouldn't have to be asked the questions. Because let me tell you the first thing that jumped into my head when I saw the Rams getting dragged all of them and they got trapped and being physically dominated. Because let me tell you what I saw. Coach, I hadn't made a statement yesterday. You know, because they went there week early and they were chilling. They said, Oh, and the Rams say, Oh, you know, we data tells us we're going to get there the day before and stay there two days and yada yada yada. They said, Okay, we about to beat y'all up. And that was the game plan. When you talk about, I think it was called the WAM, the WAM block with the full back. Like it brought me, gave me PTSD because I remember that when that full back going motion and he get that full head of steam, you hit that line. You just knew it was only a matter of time before that takes his toll. And then when the second half started and you kept seeing them doing it and you start seeing you, you just called it moving the crowd that offensive line start

moving the crowd man. That was old school football right there. That was good to see, especially when you talk about the researchers on a running backs this year, you talk about the full back trying to make a comeback, even though you know, it ain't too many. I'm in the league, the ones that are in the league, man. There's some hammers. There's some hammers in the league. All right. A few things. You know, I know you took some notes. I got I had some things I wanted to get your thoughts on from that game. And now I kind of spinning it. How it pertains to the Eagles. He was a Rams don't play in the preseason. They look tired and sluggish. Now some of that might have been the way they traveled. I don't know. I mean, I don't know the science behind all of it. I do wonder though. If the league is gone too far one way and you know, now we'll see how the Eagles play Sunday, right? They didn't play any of their starters in the preseason. But didn't it seem like the Rams starters weren't prepared for a full game physically? They were looked tired by the end of the game. They did. They look beat up. Yeah. They got beat up. They got they got out physical. Now, you know, for tea, make a coward out of you. Now I've that's another cliche. I'm a Hitchhaw with

the day. Great. He's always hard. But it was a counter at now. 12. What's that? Yeah, that's my cliche counter. Yeah. That's great. But I'm saying it does, man. And and and you could tell the momentum switch. And you know what else was more egregious than that? Was the coach. That's why I said you should apologize to Nick Sianney because he gave up. He gave up, man. Well, why would I apologize to Nick? Because because we all talk about. Was not involved. Can I? Can I finish? No. Nick wasn't involved last night. Can I finish? No, no, no, no, no, no. Who should apologize to Syria? Why? Because what do I say? But Nick lately, I just feel like you should because you bought to say something bad about you two. Kyle while we at you know what I feel like you should apologize to me. You're really too appreciate it. And you know what else? Look at my copious nose here. I appreciate it. Nick, you're crazy. Let me, let me appreciate your quarterback skill set. That's what I, that's what I came. What does that do with last night? I just, I just felt like thinking of let me ask you. Everyone wants, you know what? Everyone wants so desperately for last night to be some sort of referendum on the Eagles. No, it's not guys. Okay. I don't think Shemek Vey for all the accolades that he get for being a smart hit coach and

then I'm a tied in an Xerian. We always say that that that he's a smart like he's smart and coach Syrien. Well, I think I guess I don't think so. I don't think so. In the biggest of the industry. And just saying that he did was the travel bubble hit thing he did with travel. Make it to team there. Time to get him. They look, they made them a spake. They look, they look washed. I will, I will offer this up. I think we all agree the Rams are probably going to be fine this year. They're going to be fine. But a little bit of an older team. Yeah. Well, I mean, eventually staffer is not going to play it as MVP level. He played bad last night. I mean, you know, Miles Garrett's not old, but he knows bringing his, um, we don't, you know, the whole ironed on him thinks exciting. But the man's a couple years out of the leagues like him. He didn't retire early. There's more questions about them than, than I think that we're given. Yeah. Well, so all right. So let me ask you question. Was last night a good night for the Eagles? As far as, uh, no, the outcome. I don't think it was not because the, the not, that was a loss I gave to the Niners before the season. Now they have an extra win. I didn't expect. Yeah. T. We're free. One of the

like, he, is that, is that a takeaway for us? Are the Niners better than we thought? Yeah. Joey both. I think both of which ever, whichever one of them, if we're going to make any grand assumptions off of last night, I think everyone knew penciled in the Rams and the Seahawks as, as contending teams, we went at the fight for a playoffs, pot with the Niners were a question mark. But now I think, you know, again, if we're making grand assumptions off of last night, that's another team we now have to worry about in the end of six. I kind of thought of them as nine or 10 wins. Now, maybe they're at 11. They just took a game last night from a team that I didn't think they beat. So that's that. One more thing you I had. I'm not sure if this senior notes are not. Was that? So the, the offense is we watch last night. We are thinking starting Sunday, we start to see something similar in terms of style, right from the Eagles. That's the tree that Manion came from. We, what, let's choose Pertie because he played well. Stafford did not last night. Do you think, Jaylon can get to a point where he gets the ball out of his hands as quick as Pertie did last night? Because Pertie was, Pertie was slinging it. Pertie played well. But what caught me about him, not just that he played well because he's had a lot of good games. It's how quick it's like, bam, bam. They had this, they had to stand on the screen

and point two point two seconds. He was getting rid of the ball. Yeah. I, I, I, no, me going to hit this quick starter and say that's a unique skill set because we were talking about it this morning. Now, that's where, that's where I said I appreciate your quarterback skill set comes in. That's where for us, I feel like we're going to run a lot of rollouts because that allows Jaylon time to see the plays develop and it also gives him an outlet. No, no, because when you talk about Brock, Pertie, you know, when Brock, Pertie threw that pick, Joe, he threw it because he didn't put enough mustard on that hot dog. Like when he threw that ball, it was a good throw, but he didn't anticipate the, the defender dropping back deep into covers because he had nobody in his zone. He had a layer at over there. Yeah. He had nobody was in his zone and you're taught that when you're in a zone, just keep dropping. Like if nobody's in your area, right? Just keep dropping. Get depth because you know, it might something anything can happen. So just get depth or whatever the quarterback does, you can see it. And what happened was, dude kept getting depth. He put it up. He

didn't, he didn't zip it in there enough. And he said, you saw when he said, hey, that's my bad. But guess what he did? He kept throwing that thing. He kept throwing that thing. And I'm like, man, Brock, Pertie today looked better than Matt. Now Matt Stafford has some missiles that he threw, but on the consistent basis, Pertie was better. Pertie was a better quarterback. Now I will, I'll meet you in the middle on one thing because you said appreciate the skill set, right, Jaylin? The one thing that the Rams could not do last night, we do, I think, take for granted with which yellow and the Eagles, the goal line, right? Like Stafford got stopped. Jaylin doesn't get stopped there. The Eagles don't get stopped on the half yard line on fourth in an inch. The two is pushed, right? But that, I thought the game ended on that play. It felt like the momentum switched. It was 17, seven, I think. And the Rams were about to go in 17, 14. That's a different game if it's three point game. And they got stopped. Niners went right down the field. It's 24, seven. It's over. So, you know, not every quarterback can do that, right? Not every offense has that short yardage, automatic thing in there. And the Eagles for years now, which, Jaylin, have been incredible

out of two, one, five, five, nine, two, ninety four. Is this a must win game for the Eagles on Sunday? To me, it absolutely is. And of course, you can react to last night, the fills as well, who start a series in Atlanta tonight. John in downtown is up on WIP. John John. John. Hey, John. Hey, you know, nine and 11, you know, where I was on nine eleven, where were you? I was in New York City picking up records from the playboy office. I was, I came out of there and I'm going down the termplay coming out of there. And I saw the smoke coming from the buildings. I've never been so scared by life. Now it's been about 90 miles an hour down the New York termplay. John, I can't, I can only imagine that that mean every day, you know, every year on this time, we hear different stories like that. And for the people like you that are either in the city or close to it, I mean, it's just, I mean, it's terrifying for the rest of us just even, even in an hour away. I mean, it's just, it's the scariest day we've had as Americans in our lives. And

my buddy didn't get out of the city because he was in there later to me and he had to park the truck in a neighborhood and walk across the bridge. Oh my goodness. They get out of the park that made it so. It was so bright out. It was so unreal. I'm like, what? And then I was listening to the radio and they're like describing what happened. I was a cold e-smoke. Yeah. Well, the part that made it so hard for so many people is, it just was a different time with communication, right? Like not every cell phones were still, you know, some people had them, but not many. So if you had someone near that area, you know, you didn't know until they got to a phone until they could contact you. It's just, it was, it was terrifying, John, for sure. It was unreal. So anyway, yeah, guys tomorrow, I mean, Sunday must win. I'm going to, and I'm going to tell you why it's a must win. Because if they don't win this game, the people who hate jail and are going to come out of the woods and hate Syrian and they're like, Oh, they see they, they stink. They stink.

They suck. So they really got to win this game because I don't want to hear that on Monday. You know, it's actually a really good point. Yeah, it is. Given the overreaction that we've gotten from those first two games, like we bet you guys not everybody, not only better pray that we win, but that hurts. Looks good, especially after, after everything that we just heard, like they, they have to win and now he has to look good. Yeah. And John, I agree with you. I know. I also, it gives them a cushion because you know, I think there's, we all think there's going to be a transition. But if they can, if they can get a win on Sunday and they should get a win next week as Tennessee is one of the worst teams at football, like two and O is a nice cushion. That way, if they have, you know, some rocky points, they have those two wins in their back pocket. We need these. And I, I expect them to win, but I expected not to look pretty, especially in the first half. I expect the defense to keep things in control. I don't expect to see that offense really get going or get any traction until the second half. And I expect them to win the game. It's going to be just like the games this week. Yeah, it really, yeah. I mean,

both games have been. Oh, they did. And they, I was impressed with the way they ran the ball on them. John, John, good phone call. Here, the other thing as we talked about the game last night, thought it was interesting. And I wonder if, I wonder if we'll see any of this with the Eagles with Sequan and Tank. Did you notice how often last night, Shanahan used his other back? I think his last name is Black, the rookie at Indiana. Yeah. And now, maybe that was just a game plan thing. Maybe it's a strategy to keep the referee a little healthier because he's getting older off a lot of touches. But that in the past with the Niners, every carry went to McCaffrey, right? Every carry. And we know he's had some great years. He's also had some injuries. He'll last night. They used their second back and it made me wonder if the Eagles will do something similar. We're saying I think they will. I think they will because what it does, and it's weird, right? Because change, just changing the running backs and still running the same place, it changes the pace of the game. And the perfect example that I always give is be Mitch. Be Mitch when he was back there, man. It was difficult. I think it was what Stephen Davis.

Stephen Davis was a bigger back. Yeah. And we were tattooing. I remember one year we went down in, I think it was a 98. We were tattooing him. And when Be Mitch came in the game, just that vision, be Mitch has, when he played, he had vision to see what a holes were going to be. And to have that change of pace back out there, man, we were beating them. They give you an example. We were beating them. He comes into the game and his versatility, they get back in the game and they end up winning a game. So last night, McCaffrey had 10 carries for 68 yards, 6.8 to pop. I mean, he was obviously very productive when he got the ball, but only 10 carries. He got five receptions. He always gets a lot of receptions. He were 15 touches. And McCaffrey's, McCaffrey's had a lot of years where it's in that 20s, right? 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25. Yeah. Look, this might have just been one game. It's the first game of the year. Maybe ease in him. And I just, I wonder that I wonder if the Eagles, if they saw that or their own plans, like, hey, instead of 23 for, for say, Juan, maybe we keep him fresher with 15. And he's better in his 15. Well, it's, it's this too.

You keep your backs fresher so you get better downs from both backs. And they did. And not only that, Joe, it's, it's funny because even I haven't played it like 20 some years, but you see the momentum change. And it happened at the half when they came off a half time and they just started pounding the rock. It was just like, and you start seeing, just notice people, when you watch football, how, how stout defensive lineman look at the point of attack at the beginning of the game. And opposed to how they look at half time when they're getting blown off the ball. And that, like, you're just holding on for dear life. Wear them out. Yeah, you see guys getting that, because they say, uh, what they call it, what they call it, when you get double team off line, get skinny. So you try to turn, right? You try to turn your shoulders so that you won't get blown off the ball. You still getting manhand them, but you're not, you're not giving up any ground. You're allowing the linebackers to escape scraping everything, but you're not getting blown off the ball because you getting blown off the ball. That's, that's bad film right there. Well, of course, that's what getting like in the middle in the, in the teeth of that defense. Man, it was, it

was, it was all clogged up in the middle. Well, and I think this, this Sunday. And why, I think the Eagles were going to win the game because they're two lines. Their defensive lines should dominate the commander's offense. My, and as the game goes on, we should wear them out and run the ball down their throat. That's how the Eagles need to win this game Sunday. And they should. And it's a must win. Aaron in San Diego is up on WIP. Aaron. Good morning, Philadelphia. Good morning, Aaron on a football Friday. What's up? You, you Douglas. How are you, my friend? I'm good, man. How you doing? I'm doing great. It is the beginning. It is Friday. We got two days. It's exciting stuff. You know, Kyle, my good friend Quinn, how are you today? Come on, man. He, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, right. There's, there's a sublivenal message right there. But anyway, hey, and then Joe Gillio. Yes. So your Rams fandom is, is literally like oozing out of your poor. I mean, that,

that, that, that prediction yesterday was as bad as ESP saying that the Patriots were a super bowl team. I mean, that just, well, really, really, not so, hold on. I mean, mine is worse because this Patriots were in the football. Right. So, undefeated seasons don't happen very often. Right. Patriots, dolphins. So mine is worse. It's more unlikely. Second, I, like, I could think a team is good without being a fan. Like the, I pick the Dodgers to win the world series most years. Does it mean I'm a Dodgers fan? Dude, you're like right now, though. You're really in like a situation where like, a must win this Sunday. I mean, come on, let's, let's set our expectations to be realistic. Okay. We have a new, we have the Sky Martial. What are you talking about? The standard is the standard. Can I, can I can, no, I think everybody else is stupid. Your thing is stupid.

Don't be surprised if this team goes two and two or one and three in the first four games. Okay. But here's the facts. Okay. The Phillies are who we thought they were. Let's put them in the cabinet. The soap opera known as the Philadelphia 76ers has not yet begun. Let's just put them down this phone call. What are you talking about? In your time for the one thing that is pure in our lives, that is true in our lives, that as sports fans, we can have confidence in three Super Bowls in the last 10 years. Two Lamberti trophies, one Super Bowl MVP, Jalenites, now, now, because the Sky Martial Quadzilla, the Monsters of Broad Street, Jalen, I'm a bad man, Carter, Gordon, big country Davis, Quintalbae, and Cooper are about to take flight on the commanders. Okay. And once they get this locomotive finally tuned and running on

all cylinders, don't be surprised. We go on at nine, 10, 11 game win streak. God bless America. God bless the ECL ES. It's not like we need Daniel from your game. Let's go. All right, Aaron, we appreciate the phone call. How do we grade Aaron's call that time? That was awful. One of his worst. Pretty good. No, I'm saying. You have no sense. I have no standards. First of all, this guy lowering the bar, two and two, when all we heard all of season, the best quarterback on planet earth, the history of planet earth, but we can't even expect them to beat the Washington Command. Does anyone understand math, guys? If you think there's a chance they go to and to, which of the two are they going to win? Which of the two are the four guys? This is one of the ones they should win. They're at home. They're one of the biggest favorites of the week. How are they getting to two and two without this one being part of it? Has anyone using their brains? This is a must win football game on Sunday, two, two, one,

five, five, nine, two, nine, four, nine, four. Just cute. Douglass is lower in the bar. Does it mean you have to? I'm just being realistic. Realistically, they need to win this football game. They don't need, they need, they should win this football game. Well, sure. But it's not the end of the world. Yeah. Well, that doesn't agree. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait till Monday and WIP. It goes the wrong way. Yeah. That money, money, money, Black, Monday, dark, Monday, whatever they want to call it. Not a good. Yeah, I can see that. Uh, karaoke definitely. Would you have tours? No, you don't seem like you like to tour a lot of people travel. You know what I noticed? I've been on with Karaoke. That's a lot of try-hars that Karaoke. Well, it's your shot to do what? To get up on stage like to have your moment. That's the whole point. I'll go, okay. To get noticed. Yeah, you don't want to have that. Maybe you get a record deal out of it. No, I didn't go ahead. Why not? Because somebody like me was fine. I was getting acting. No, I didn't get up and seeing karaoke. So I did some, you auditioned, right? No, they say, hey, you got skills. What skills did they pay to bills? That's what they told me. And I say, you know

what you're right. That's why I became a list actor. No, I told my a-list friends. T on my a-list friends. You know, I would bet the majority of people cannot name a thing that you were in. Because they, because mostly I'm working behind the scenes. Well, that's not a list, though. No, I'm saying that. A-list actors are from the center. They're like on the poster. When I, in my heyday, you know, you know, when I hate that's all of my point. We are, you know, you know, what you were in your heyday about Ryan Reynolds and if he's an a-list actor. And at least, well, okay, that's fine. That, that was a fair debate. I mean, you're not even in the same class as Ryan Reynolds. I mean, come on, man. Ryan Reynolds, he called me the other day. Ryan Reynolds called you? Not really. It sounds slick when I'm out of faith. Did you think Ryan Reynolds knows who a huge dog will sit? Not a shot. Yeah, no. We did what? And Lassie's a football fan. And Lassie's a football fan. And Lassie's a football fan. And Lassie's a football fan. And then he might, then he might know you are. Two one five five nine two, 90 four, 94. Before we go back to the phone lines, here's Scott, Francis will join us at noon for a france. He Friday fills and braves this weekend. One last chance to make the NL East close. So yesterday was a tough day for the

Phillies chances to win this division. Who's the back of quarterback on Sunday? Yes. Okay. Thank you. Are you taking the cereal out and not giving me an answer? Well, you know, it was funny. And I wanted to joke. We were talking about this in a break. I said, what this does is it makes you as a defense, prepare for both guys, even though they might not play. You always want to prepare for all contingencies. Yeah. Do you think the commanders need to spend a lot of time preparing for any don't think they don't need to, but they're going to because it's not smart not to. I mean, seriously, all jokes aside, because you will probably have three to four reps for the backup, right? But now you probably six to eight, you know, for both of them, because they don't know who they're going to start. You know, I gave you an example last night, just for example, when you talk about the San Francisco 49ers and they had the two running backs back there, the next team that they play are going to have to prepare for both of the running backs. And so that's going to take up more time for you to do preparation and everything like that. Who do you think it should be? Like if you're if you're a Nick Cereoni and you're you're figuring it out right now, who's your back

of quarterback? I'm going with the guy with the most experience, even though he did not separate himself and he looks, you know, like you would like to say, washed. He looks like he's a little older. I'm going to go with the rear rifle. I'd rather go with my key. My anticipation is they're going to go with Andy Dalton. I mean, I my guest is Sunday when we get the inactive's inactive's, Andy Dalton will be active and and Tannenberg key will not be active for the game. I just the whole secrecy thing. I don't know guys. I mean, I appreciate some people live for that, though, Joe. No, no, and I keep it playing closer to the best. I appreciate the Eagles trying to create any edge they can in any area. I think that's what the best teams at sports do. I'm just this one feels a little bit over the top. I mean, do we really need to on Friday be evasive about who the backup quarterback is going to be in the game? Especially when neither probably you're any good. I mean, it would come down to just if they play well or not at the end of the day. I mean, you can't tell me the paths weren't prepared for the positive drew lock coming in and that didn't really matter. It did not like the sea hawks made it very plain and clear who their backup quarterback was.

Exactly. At the bats know it. Oh, and I think this this would be a little different if let's say one of these guys to me was mobile, right? Then it'd be like, all right. Well, what kind of quarterback is coming there similar? Yeah, they're both they're not going to move anywhere. So I, you know, we'll say obviously we hope we don't see either of them or whoever the number two is. Yeah, we see the way to best. Well, right. I mean, that's so let's just hope we don't get there. But it's Nick Sionic continuing to say he doesn't know who is backup quarterback is they're competing this week barely. Clandell is up on WIP. Hey, Clandell. So what's up? How you got to do it? Good, Clandell, what's up? Good, good man. Listen, of course this weekend Sunday is a must win game. Tell him, Clandell, we have a top five quarterback. I keep saying his last time I said this when I say he was the best quarterback in the NFC. You guys got mad at me. Not mad. I just disagree. That's a terrible take. The reason that because Dalyne has never left this fan base with a bad taste in their mouth after

week one. He's always one week one. Yeah, right. Yeah, right. That's true. I mean, I hear you're defeated. You're dead right about that. No matter, don't matter if it's a 10 to 13 game or anything, he's going to get it done week one and give the fans something good to start the season off with. Also, I want to say to you guys who said all the Jalen guys, we're we're illogical because we're making up things because of week one Drake May staffer and you guys making correlations between that. It's not the same thing because these guys, they're in situations that's been stable for them with the same same play call or same weapons and they can't get it done. These guys turn to deer and headlights. When situations arrive, they can't meet them all. Hold on a second. When did Matthew staff return to a deer and headlights last night? He's placed. He's been in the league for 17 years. Clandell, he's been in the league for 17 years. He's been in the league for 17 years. He's been in the league for 17 years. He's been in the league for 17 years.

What's last night in his career? It's just one game. I understand. I'm saying, meeting the moment. He has expectations. The expectations you put on him undefeated. Everybody knows we're a super team and we got to do this. We got to do that. He looked like he was shell shocked out there. He did look bad. His accuracy was as bad as I've seen it in a while. Kyle said earlier, he is old. We'll see if his how well he plays it. Clandell, good phone call. It's one game. Can I say this? One game. Listen, I understand that people are going to defend Jaylen because they like him. He's won a lot. Can we not... Let's be logical in our defense of him because a lot of time. Now you want to be logical. No, no, no, no, because listen to what I'm saying. Clandell, then I'm not picking on you, but you called in and said, Jaylen hurts is going to win because he's a top five quarterback. What is Matthew Stafford? He was a top five quarterback till yesterday. He's out. You see what I'm saying?

I'm removing him from the top five. I like to have fun and laugh and giggle, but when we talk about certain things, man, you got to base it in some kind of logic. You know what I mean? So you say he's going to win because he's a top five quarterback. Well, okay, where's Matt Stafford and that top five? Well, here's a question. To block Perch. Blow your mind with this one. What if two top five quarterbacks play each other in week one? They cancel each other out, Joe. Tie game. Nobody wins. You guys are wild. I have one of my favorite all-timers I was told in you people today. Oh, yeah. I can't wait for it. All right, 2-1-5. Oh, you're going to be a piece of the world. 5-9-2. 94-9, but we have a big second half of the show. Coming up. Fransky Friday next. We're going to ease drop on the enemy. The nonsense they're saying down in DC. We'll hear from Vic Fanzio, Meryl Moment. He was being cooking up a take. I can't wait to hear it. Guess the takes coming up. But Fransky Friday, that's next.
