00:00But Vlad, I had a rough one this weekend.

00:02Oh, you know what? You know what? It's cool.

00:04I thought about it while I was working on some of the, you know, some of the editing.

00:08I was like, oh, you know what? Leroy had a terrible Saturday and Sunday.

00:11So, you know what? Terrible Saturday.

00:13You know what? He can, you know, that Monday, seeing the Jets.

00:17I give it to him.

00:18He needed something.

00:19He needed something.

00:20I needed something.

00:21When you're traveling and seeing your teams get your ass kicked,

00:24get your ass kicked, yeah, that's a bad, that's a bad weekend.

00:27It wasn't like, like, listen, it wasn't even close.

00:30Neither one of them.

00:32Pretty wild.

00:34It was, it was something there, man.

00:36Hey, Leroy, me and my friends were talking.

00:38Is it time to, you know, stick a fork in Deshaun?

00:41Oh, listen, he wants to.

00:43He wants to.

00:44Because we, we did a funeral procession for Russell Wilson last year.

00:47And we kind of want to do another one for Deshaun.

00:50Because it's, it's been three years.

00:52Like, it's no more excuses anymore.

00:53Dude, here, I, listen, you know, I watch games.

00:58And I'm usually pretty calm about what I'm seeing.

01:02Because, you know, sometimes something you do in the first quarter has a bigger,

01:08you know, picture thing or an adjustment that's coming.

01:13And you're just setting the team up.

01:15One of the things that I would say,

01:20I just can't stomach is all the three and four and five-yard passes that he's throwing.

01:27I don't know why.

01:29But I'm like, this is ridiculous.

01:32They used to sling that thing.

01:33Right.

01:35So I don't know why that is.

01:37I don't know what the situation is.

01:40But I do know that they can't win like that.

01:45It's, it's not looking great, dude.

01:47It's not looking great, dude.

01:49Let me ask you this.

01:50All right.

01:50You don't have to say names.

01:52But around the Browns, what's the vibe with them?

01:56Like, is everybody kind of eye rolling?

01:57Is it cringy?

01:58Is it hopeful?

01:59Like the people who, you know, and trust around there.

02:02Just like, is it like a, is it XO?

02:06No, or is it, or is it like a ship?

02:09I am probably one of the last.

02:13Oh, so most people are rats.

02:15Right.

02:16Right.

02:16They got their snorkels on.

02:18Right.

02:18Wow.

02:19I, I, you know, I am, again, I tell you this all the time.

02:25Based on my career, I had people extremely patient with me.

02:30I only took a year, but still.

02:34And so I try to, when it comes to players and this is all players, you've seen me do this.

02:41I have been a little more patient than most.

02:45But the thing that I can't be patient with is if you get paid a bunch of money,

02:56then that means you have a skillset that separates you from a lot of other

03:02individuals that can do that thing.

03:05Yeah.

03:05And what I'm watching now, and it don't help nothing now that Baker is balling.

03:12Is balling and, and, and in fact, they got rid of him and he had an arm injury

03:20and he tried to play through it.

03:21Yep.

03:23But the fact that I could have like, because right now people might not like this,

03:36but Jamis Winston will at least take chances and throw the ball down the feet.

03:40It gives a great speech.

03:41He may throw it to the other team, but I think people would be okay with that here.

03:48Do you understand how excited people got?

03:50Joe Flacco slinging it all over the field.

03:52Oh yeah.

03:52He had 13 touchdowns and eight picks, which is average.

03:55But it's fun.

03:56Old man.

03:56It's but Jamis Winston's the same way.

03:59Oh yeah.

04:00Now, you know, it's interesting.

04:03You know, you had all these Dinkin dunkers all over the place

04:07and nobody's really spent this weekend thanking Tua.

04:10Oh, going deep.

04:11No one's thanking Tua for saving football because really he's funny.

04:16The guy he's the last of a dying breed that everybody told me was a check down Charlie.

04:20And really I look around the statistics and, and everybody else looks like

04:25three of 4,460 yards.

04:27Like was, was, was that was last night.

04:29Aaron Rogers way of honoring Joe Namath by putting up a 1970s stat line.

04:34Like all I see around the league is 140 yards passing 150 yards passing.

04:39And really the only person saving your fantasy teams and saving your Sundays.

04:43Is Tua Tungabailoa.

04:45Okay.

04:46Let's relax.

04:47Cause I saw eight negative plays by the Miami Dolphins offense as well.

04:50Hey, but, but the chunks were there.

04:53Could you imagine if they didn't have the negative plays?

04:55Devon A. James running line.

04:57That wasn't pretty good.

04:58Cause I saw you throw 30 yards and Jalen Waddle.

05:02And then the next three plays were all negative.

05:04What is this?

05:041970.

05:05What are you?

05:06Zonk.

05:06Nobody came here for run game.

05:08We came here to see bombs.

05:09Don't knock Zonk.

05:10Okay.

05:10By the way, I love Zonk.

05:11I love Zonk.

05:12Zonk's a great tweezer.

05:13But I'm just saying we all can't.

05:15I thought we were in a day and age.

05:16We wanted to see people sling that football down the field.

05:18Nobody does it anymore.

05:19Except for Tua.

05:20You guys told me he couldn't do it.

05:22The 30 is pretty impressive.

05:24Can I, I'll also say that.

05:28We kind of talked about this yesterday.

05:30Vlad is that Mike McDaniel wants to run the ball outside and stretch defense so much.

05:37And that was the wrong team to do it against.

05:40Because all of their pass rushers, the first thing they do is get up to field.

05:45So you're asking for it.

05:47You're asking for trouble.

05:48If you don't get outside those guys, they get up field quick.

05:52And so that's what it looked like.

05:53And that's why when Jeff Wilson came in the second half and they start running more of a,

06:00inside, it looked a little bit different.

06:02Look at, look at these, look at these guys.

06:05Look at these so-called great quarterbacks, you know, that, that are out here.

06:10You know, Dak Prescott, 179 highest paid quarterback elite.

06:14Deshaun Watson.

06:15Most guaranteed money.

06:16169.

06:17Aaron Rogers.

06:19The, the GOAT.

06:20167.

06:21Joe.

06:23164.

06:24Trevor Lawrence paid more than Tua.

06:27162.

06:28Kirk Cousins.

06:30All he did was used to put up stats.

06:33Empty stats.

06:34Kirk Cousins.

06:35Give you a 155.

06:37Justin Herbert.

06:39More passing yards in any rookie quarterback ever.

06:43144.

06:45If it wasn't for Tua, we would be in the football stone ages, dude.

06:50That's the facts about it.

06:53You're welcome.

06:54Or Javon Holland making that, that, that because team game.

07:01No, no, no.

07:04You're changing the argument.

07:05I'm talking quarterbacking.

07:06Changing the game.

07:07I can say that.

07:08He can't.

07:09I can say that.

07:11You always point the individuals good.

07:13This is a quarterback conversation and Tua is saving football.

07:16How about this?

07:17How about this?

07:19You know that Aaron Rogers is old as hell.

07:22Yeah.

07:23And for the time is undefeated.

07:24That's right.

07:25But I didn't talk about Aaron Rogers.

07:27Like most people would.

07:29Oh, Aaron Rogers.

07:30You supposed to get us over that hump.

07:32No.

07:32I put the issues where they were.

07:35Oh, now that's on the defense.

07:36That loss is on the defense.

07:38And, and listen, we just watched some plays with that old line.

07:43I'm going to just do this for week one.

07:46Shake.

07:46It was week one.

07:48I did see some guy have, you know, 40 O's can't get a hit a whole lot.

07:51I did see a Jets tackle, put Nick Bosa in a literal rear naked choke to try and keep

07:55him off.

07:56Wasn't called by the way.

07:57Got away with it.

07:58Capital life says Tobin, you're weighing it.

08:00You're laying it on way too thick.

08:01This is how the football gods punished him.

08:03Hey, I just want to say something.

08:06See, this is, this is why you guys aren't grownups.

08:08I'm talking two different things here.

08:11I'm not saying he's the best.

08:12I'm not saying he's number one in the league.

08:15I'm not saying they're the best team.

08:16All I'm saying is as far as entertaining football is concerned, you're welcome for

08:21to a tongue of Iowa, giving you some explosive plays because these quarterbacks suck and all

08:29of them are putting up a boring product.

08:31I'm not here to say he's the best.

08:33I'm not here to say what's what all I'm saying is look at the rest of the league and

08:38the only guy who has given you explosion all over the place.

08:43When they said he was, they called him old dink and dunking donuts.

08:48That's what they called to her.

08:49And how is he?

08:50He's out here throwing bomb skis to Tyreek Hill.

08:53It's the best thing in the sport and you're welcome for it.

08:57The game was supposed, wasn't that game supposed to be over?

08:59Wasn't supposed to be a shootout.

09:01That's what everybody Trevor Lawrence.

09:02He can't shoot.

09:03I think I'm shut out in the second half.

09:05Blame old Goldilocks.

09:07Great throw by him to Thomas though.

09:09That was a good throw.

09:10That's all he had though.

09:11Those two throws at Thomas pretty good.

09:15So it goes two days.

09:17Yeah.

09:18Yeah.

09:19That there's that there's a catch up to you.
