00:00I need to get to tonight's games and you reminded me because you told me that they're doing

00:07that stale bit on the pregame show where they show Robert Sala running up and down the steps

00:13at the stadium.

00:14So that reminded me that we do have to get to tonight's game at some point.

00:18Enough of the guy running about this guy on his stairs.

00:22Like what do I give a flying off this guy when a game game ritual and training like

00:28I'm watching this guy running stairs like what is next.

00:35Final two game Seahawks beat the Broncos 26 20.

00:38I'm not expecting much out of either of those teams this year Scotty after watching that

00:43game that game was ugly for long stretches the Seahawks and the Broncos.

00:49So God bless and good luck if you're a fan of those teams.

00:53I was impressed with Tampa.

00:56Four touchdowns for Baker Mayfield 37 to 20.

00:59They won.

01:00And I know that everybody's already crowned Atlanta as the champs of the NFC South.

01:05Scotty I know that was done months ago that they're automatically winning that division

01:10but Tampa won it last year and Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans they don't look like they're

01:17giving it up right now the way they look yesterday.

01:21That was easy money.

01:22I mean honestly like how many games do I have to hit.

01:25That was easy money that the Saints I mean just Dallas I mean Pittsburgh and I don't

01:31don't don't don't I mean I just my account was just like spinning money spinning it out.

01:37And finally for you we have not been together since Friday night.

01:41Of course the Eagles beat the Packers in Brazil.

01:43The big thing there was Jordan Love getting hurt at the end of that game for Green Bay

01:48MCL sprain.

01:50He's going to miss minimum four to six weeks.

01:53We'll see if it's even longer is that again.

01:56When you get an NFL injury usually side on the longer side than the shorter side when

02:02it comes to this stuff.

02:03They have their job to do that.

02:05That's a record right there six weeks.

02:08I mean what's left after that 11 weeks.

02:11So they're going to have to win like 80 percent of the games from week seven till week 18.

02:18I mean honestly because they're going to lose.

02:21They already have lost.

02:22I'm going to lose more right.

02:24It feels like when something like this happens and your starting quarterback is going to

02:28be gone for a month or more and in this case let's just call it six weeks.

02:32You have to hope and this is why you need to hope you have a backup quarterback that

02:36can minimum keep you at 500 like hold water.

02:41Try to go three and three until the other guy gets back.

02:43Try to keep the season somewhat alive.

02:46There's a problem though Scotty.

02:48They have Malik Willis and Sean Clifford.

02:51I just have a quarterback behind them.

02:53They have allegedly talked to Ryan Tannehill about dragging him out from his porch where

02:59he's sitting on enjoying a nice cool summer breeze.

03:03They have an eliminated.

03:05Yeah that's that.

03:06They need to get him because we saw Malik Willis in Tennessee.

03:11Nothing against Malik but he's not very good.

03:13He's not very good at all.

03:14Right.

03:16Tannehill's you know what Tannehill is he's he's frankly Joe Flacco.

03:20I mean he can he can play right and he knows how to play and you know the problem I have

03:25with him is he's old now and slow and everything but so was Joe and I thought Joe played great

03:30for the Browns last year and if he has to play for the Colts this year which I bet he

03:33will because Richard said he'll get hurt again the way he runs the ball.

03:37Look I'm telling you they got to do something or if they're just going to wait for him to

03:43come back I'd say I mean there's a chance I know this sounds insane but there's a chance

03:51that that injury in Brazil ruins their season.

03:55I agree.

03:56That's how bad it could be for them especially with their quarterback situation.

03:58All right.

03:59Let's get to tonight.

04:00We'll start it off.

04:01Monday night football final game of week number one it is in San Francisco as we were just

04:06saying Robert Sala the Jets Aaron Rodgers heading west to take on the defending NFC

04:13champion 49ers.

04:15We'll start with Sal of course who used to work for Kyle Shanahan as the defensive coordinator

04:19in San Fran.

04:20You'll hear about that six thousand times tonight.

04:22But there are high expectations for this New York Jet team.

04:25What does Sal think about managing those?

04:27Stay in the moment you know the noise is going to be the noise whether if you win the messaging

04:35will be one way and if you lose it's going to be another way no matter how hard you try

04:38to control it.

04:39So stay in the moment focus on what you've got control over and everything will take

04:42care of itself.

04:43Yeah I think this guy's future is doomed.

04:46I do not think he's a good football coach.

04:49I think that he was an assistant and he was good at that and as a head coach I think he's

04:53been an atrocity and no one cares at all about him talking about noise and anything else.

05:02He hasn't done anything.

05:03Let me tell you something.

05:04They will never win a game because of him.

05:08OK.

05:09They're going to win because of Aaron Rodgers.

05:11Aaron Rodgers is the head coach of the Jets.

05:14This guy is a joke.

05:15He has not done anything in New York except lose.

05:19What has he done.

05:20I mean honestly I mean honestly like let's stop with all the bullshit.

05:25This guy listening to him is a waste of time because no one listens to him his team doesn't

05:30listen to him.

05:31The media doesn't listen to him.

05:33I can't even believe we're listening to him to be honest with you.

05:35He's awful and you can quote me on that.

05:38The only thing that will keep them from winning is him.

05:42Let Aaron Rodgers run the show and they'll win some games.

05:46Aaron Rodgers is legit.

05:48There's no denying that he's legit but he's also 40 some years old and he's old.

05:54He is old news.

05:55Trust me.

05:56Now everyone thinks they're going straight to the Super Bowl with this old quarterback.

05:59Let's see.

06:00We'll see tonight won't we.

06:01Well I mean he could go out there and give them problems.

06:05The guy's a good quarterback.

06:06There's no denying he's good.

06:08But I will never say that Robert Sala is good at being a head coach.

06:13Well here he is Scotty of course after missing all of last year.

06:17Little chip on Rodgers shoulder.

06:19He's heard a lot from the media etc.

06:21I don't know why they're bumping him all up now he shouldn't have any chip.

06:25Here's Aaron Rodgers.

06:26Coach also said to ask you if you were playing with a chip.

06:29He asked him.

06:30Oh.

06:31So he said ask Aaron.

06:32I mean how do you not you know I mean I've always kind of played with something on my

06:36shoulder.

06:37You got to you know manufacture things from time to time but yeah I mean it kind of goes

06:42back to the prove it who do I need to prove to just myself at this point so but I have

06:48a lot of pride in my performance so when I take the field I expect greatness and because

06:53I've done it before and so that's kind of standard to hold myself to.

06:58Listen I'll give him credit.

07:00He's had a great career and he's got one ring and nobody's taking it away from him.

07:06So you know I think people think he should have four or five rings and that's just not

07:10happening ever.

07:11It's not happening.

07:12He's 41.

07:13So he's not winning five Super Bowls.

07:18He's got one and he beat my Steelers.

07:20It is what it is.

07:21But you know I think that a lot of people think that despite all of his magnificent

07:26stats that at the end of the day his career has been a disappointment.

07:29I mean let's face facts when everybody when you win multiple MVPs you're the best player

07:34in the league and you got one ring and thank God he's got one.

07:38At least he doesn't have to go to his grave not winning one like Dan Marino.

07:42I mean honestly like Dan Marino you think he should have won four or five of them himself.

07:47How great he was.

07:48This guy's lucky he's got one.

07:51I really don't see him winning one even with this team the Jets that everybody thinks is

07:55going to the Super Bowl.

07:56They never go.

07:57They never do it.

07:58So let's see him do it.

08:01He's lucky he's got that one as you say because he's not getting another one.

08:06Yeah he's not getting another one.

08:08Not here.

08:09I don't think so.

08:10That's for sure.

08:11For tonight the Niners minus four and a half forty three and a half is the total.

08:20I'm on the Niners tonight Scotty at home.

08:22I'm on the Niners.

08:23Yeah I mean look it's dangerous I guess in some capacity because like this guy is so

08:33good like he's like Stafford.

08:35He has the ability to strike at it like he's like a rattlesnake.

08:39The guy can strike at a like just flick your finger and he'll he'll strike.

08:43He can score in an instant.

08:46He can backdoor you.

08:48He can burn you.

08:50He can fourth quarter.

08:51Yeah.

08:52He can overtime.

08:53Yeah.

08:54He can do you.

08:55He has that ability.

08:56So given that guy four and a half is a dangerous way to make a living.

08:58But I do think the Niners are allegedly the you know cream of the NFC.

09:06It's you know Detroit and San Francisco right.

09:08Those are the two best teams in the in the NFC.

09:11Is there anyone arguing that point.

09:13And you're taking on a team that's the biggest hype machine on paper I've ever seen in my

09:19life.

09:20They lost 10 games and we're listening to people tell me they're going to.

09:23He's back.

09:24So I'm on the Niners too.

09:25But anything's possible with Aaron Rodgers on the field.

09:29I think that we could say I agree with that maybe a few years ago.

09:33I think that off of playing for snaps in the last year and a half I think we got to see

09:39it to believe it now at 40 almost 41 years old and not playing for a year and a half.

09:44I don't know if that old coming down and back door and your stuff is there anymore.

09:49Let's see if it's there.

09:50And if it's there and I see that tonight fine I'll play a little bit more cautiously going

09:54forward.

09:55And I'm going to go after it.

09:56They got McCaffrey.

09:57They got Kittle.

09:58They got Debo.

09:59They got Iuke.

10:00And I got to tell you another thing.

10:03Can I just say this.

10:04I am I am about up to here with these stories about Brandon Iuke still going to the Steelers.

10:10I mean honestly like shut the F up already.

10:14They are still breaking yesterday.

10:16Yesterday two networks broke stories that he was this close to going to the Steelers.

10:22Who cares.

10:24He didn't take it or leave it.

10:28He is a niner.

10:29Why are we still talking about Brandon Iuke going to the Steelers.

10:33It is the most embarrassing story of the summer in football in this country has been the absolute

10:41butchering of the Brandon Iuke story from day one.

10:45And it's still going on.

10:46They're still talking about him being a Steeler up until kickoff tonight.

10:51And you know we're going to hear tonight during the game don't you.

10:53He was this close to being a Steeler.

10:55And they can't they can't stop and they can't help themselves.

10:58It's the dumbest story I've ever seen in my life.

11:01I'm sick and tired of it.
