00:00Kurt Cousins out in Atlanta, Michael Pennix Jr. in, uh, here's Kirk yesterday. Of course,

00:06he had to go to the podium and face the music that he's been chopped as the starting quarterback

00:10in Atlanta. Uh, and I loved it. You know, Raheem Morris gave the whole, you know,

00:14he's such a true professional, you know, he really took it, uh, like a pro great father and blah,

00:20blah, blah, blah, blah. You love him so much. You know, you love him so much. He's out, uh,

00:25as the starter, here's Cousins, uh, talking about being sent to the, uh, to the bench.

00:30Uh, coach, let me know yesterday that, uh, I'm going to make a change of quarterback. Um, uh.

00:36He's recapping the day.

00:37Pro football. And, uh, you know, there's a standard that, that, you know, I have for myself

00:42and the team has for me that, um, unfortunately, you know, I wasn't playing up to that standard

00:47consistently enough. And, uh, and so, you know, it is what it is and, um, uh, you know, you roll

00:55with it and now, uh, you know, you still get ready, you know, one play away kind of a thing

00:59and, uh, and support Mike and, uh, and just try to help our team, you know, be able to find a way

01:04to win these last three to get in the playoffs. And, uh, that's what it's all about. So, um,

01:09you know, that's, that's my focus and, um, take any questions. Yeah.

01:13Who's he kidding? Here's the deal. I wish there'd just be a coach, you know,

01:16Ditka used to do it this way. He'd say, uh, this is, you know, big boy stuff.

01:22This is the NFL, you know, people get cut, people get benched. Well, you don't have time for any of

01:28this cry baby stuff. He's out, done. He didn't get the job done. Let's stop with all this. He's

01:34a great guy. I thought he Morris was pathetic. Like I just wish someone would say we threw nine

01:41picks in five games for Christ's sakes. How many can he throw before we have to make a move?

01:47Like I'm at my next on the line too over here. And this guy's making me look,

01:51that's what I would say. Those days are so over. Like, like you're right. They use like Ditka and

01:57parcels. And these guys used to just tell you, this is how it is. Like this guy, he's just not

02:02getting a job done and he's out, you know, we're not going to treat these guys up. But nowadays

02:06it's, you gotta be, you gotta be nice to everybody. You can't say anything. I've little sob,

02:12you know, he's a great family, man. What the hell is he? Of course he's great. There's a lot of guys

02:16who are great family. And he threw nine picks in four or five games. What are you going to do?

02:20He's out. You don't have to talk the guy up. We know he's a great guy.

02:24All right. He's a great guy. He sucked though at quarterback. He's finished.
