the pat mcafee show there'll be no rules. for our guests for us for the things we. could talk about. speaking his mind i've never had a. problem expressing my opinions or my. thoughts or. anything like that while being relatable. i haven't had that. manufactured fake ass celebrity that a. lot of people have whenever they go on. those big networks i've had a chance to.
really build my crew build my following. build my audience. and ridiculous what am i supposed to do. so i'm supposed to look at something. that i can definitely afford and say. is that what i'm supposed to do the pat. mcafee show. starts. good afternoon beautiful people it is a. very. thankful wednesday november 25th 2020. and this show on sirius xm begins right. now shout out to twine for that beatrice.
up there uh very thankful wednesday. obviously thanksgivings tomorrow and. there's a lot of games to talk about. there's some covid situations happening. both in the nfl. and in college football there's a lot of. life things happening and we have a. massive show for you today joining us in. about one hour. football player mike olson. we spent 20 or 30 minutes this morning. watching old mike alstott highlights. and interviews with him i cannot wait to.
chat with this man. they called him the a train when he got. the rock back in the day. he was a mixture of derrick henry uh. meets owen schmidt for those that i got. a chance to watch west virginia football. back in the day. he was a bruiser if you never watched. him play. please go do that he talks about his. high top cleat city war that resembled. combat boots. he had a neck roll big pads on and he. just loved. the game of football and when you watch. him play you'd be like.
damn that coach's son that guy with high. energy. that guy with a high motor i mean first. one in last one out lunch pail type of. guy. that is the prototypical guy of old. school football. it was just run the ball over people's. faces. and then every once in a while he'd have. a jump cut that would just explode onto. the scene and made so. no sense if social media was around when. the a train was playing football. this guy would have 10 billion followers. because the highlights that he made week.
in and week out that we watched. super bowl champion obviously they won. by 28 points or something in the super. bowl or for the raiders when john gruden. was their coach. down in tampa he was the face of the. buccaneers for a long time. in one interview uh he said what we did. good was the run game so we had to do. that and he was like. oh listen i know you're saying what. other people say about your team but. what they're saying is. you're the good team you're the good. part of the team yeah mike alstott was. the. tampa bay buccaneers there for a while. now granted work done came into that. backfield. lorenzo neal legendary full-back pro.
bowl fullback. he was a fullback from michael start at. one point i mean that backfield. that tony dungy and john gruden had back. there. was just hilarious awesome and we get a. chance to chat with a guy whose name. will forever be synonymous with football. because he basically was football. the a train mike alstott out of purdue. university by the way. native of chicago uh but tampa bay. buccaneer legend. he'll join us in about an hour and tom. pelissaro from the nfl network will join.
us. in the third hour alongside aj hawk on. this thankful wednesday. we would like your phone calls as well. 188. mad dog 6. can't wait to chat with you. on this siriusxm channel 82 mad dog. sportswear you know thanks for wednesday. at tone diggs how you doing pal big. thanksgiving coming up we will be off. tomorrow by the way for thanksgiving. uh i will be on on friday but a lot of. the boys are traveling. uh so who knows how that show will be. going probably not a lot of people. listening. or watching but wanted to save vacation. days to be clear.
so doing the show on friday we're. probably gonna probably take a lot of. phone calls. a lot of phone calls on friday uh we'll. probably be reacting to the thanksgiving. games. having a good old time can't wait for. that but we're off tomorrow big. thanksgiving for you tone. i'm excited for you to go spend some. time with the new wife by the way first. time and thanksgiving. in-laws like the actual in-laws like. everything like that yeah this is a big. deal. yeah it'll all be the same i mean we're. drinking we'll be watching football for. the next four or five days. five days it's awesome i feel like you. got a tweet earlier this morning.
somebody asking you. uh at what or no it was on the pod yes. oh yeah what time do you begin. boozing and vitamins and digs i'm gonna. be honest when i heard your answer. i immediately was like a little bit. worried about you a little bit worried. about you but. i feel like your mindset is one that. captivates a lot of different people. well thanksgiving's a top five drinking. holiday. and people people forget about that but. yeah the in-laws. they will also uh indulge with me in. that. yeah i think you said as soon as you. wake up i believe yeah yeah yeah. yeah well well around 11. that's when.
you wake up. no he wakes up real early. you've got to remember thanksgiving's a. big drinking holiday mostly because the. night before thanksgiving is like the. second largest drinking night of the. year right behind new year's eve. but a lot of states have said no no no. no no no no no no no no no no. no no you think you're doing that whole. night before thanksgiving we're back. from college. let's go ahead and black out at the. local bar that we could never really get. into because our fake ids weren't good. enough until we got to college. think again you've been at home for. college anyway. and you will remain home for the.
wednesday night pennsylvania stop. selling beer or stop selling any alcohol. uh yesterday or today at five today. today nobody's gonna sell alcohol until. uh tomorrow at noon or something like. friday at noon or something like that. it's like so right now all the liquor. stores and state stores in pennsylvania. is what they're called. that's the only place you can get beer. everywhere else in america basically you. can get beer and things everywhere else. basically but not in pennsylvania you. have to go to a state store because they. have taxes on it so big. and i wonder if they had like a like. they need they had an overs they need. money quick. all right what are we gonna do to get.
money quick well what we need to do is. just shut off the alcohol sales. right before thanksgiving. five o'clock on wednesday do you know. how we'll sell everything. that makes sense yeah the state is this. is a little uh. this is a big wednesday or big sale. wednesday for the state that's why they. shut down the night or everything like. that. but i think that is one of the main. reasons why thanksgiving is such a. drinking holidays because the night. before. in a lot of states they don't get to. celebrate that a holiday was taken away. well most people have to drink to be. with their family too so that's. partially yeah a lot of big. conversations coming up. by the way if you're doing thanksgiving.
though a lot of people are saying you. better start playing some funerals too. at that right. you're not allowed a news person told me. that straight face too and i was like oh. my god for real. careful really jesus yeah you're not. allowed on the news it said if you're. doing thanksgiving with your family and. it's like i sir i forget how many people. if you're doing thanksgiving with your. family while you're there you guys. should start playing in funerals. oh the news person said that news a news. person said that. i was watching at home and i just like. looked over at my wife i was like holy. who's playing in the funeral is it me. break out the casket.
magazines i mean geez pick one let's go. ahead and get to it. it was uh yeah so i guess everybody's. supposed to have very small gatherings. yeah. right thanksgiving big family holiday. small gatherings okay hope you're safe. digs by the way. not not just from the vid by the way i i. think potentially also the uh blackouts. that you're gonna have by noon. right your original answer yeah. professional steelers ravens game. yeah i mean i'll be fine for that. absolutely take a nap maybe do it two a. day make it a three-day. yeah why not go for it ravens are down.
more players than anything and i guess. the conversation is uh started that. should they postpone the game. whoa should they postpone this game. because the ravens who are supposed to. play. on tomorrow who are supposed to travel. today to pittsburgh. should they postpone a game because more. positive tests are rolling out they. don't know who all has it who doesn't. they're also contemplating traveling. tomorrow like what the patriots had to. do whenever they went and played the. chiefs earlier in the season because of. the outbreak that the patriots had. i mean there's a lot of question marks. around that steelers ravens game and.
you're probably going to be. uh i would assume 10 11 drinks deep at. that point. no i mean i'll be fine i mean i'll be. always be comprehensive in there for the. steeler game. uh but you just have to wear your shirt. yeah i have it. okay moving that game is ridiculous i. mean the 49ers didn't have. a player on their offense who touched. the ball just a year before. in the super bowl and they didn't move. that game but we're thinking about. moving this game on thursday night. primetime game. what are we doing what well it doesn't. sound like you're just saying this. strictly because well you already. the steelers once because they didn't.
have a bye week because the titans. couldn't control their goddamn locker. room so you want to. them again uh that is interesting. this would be a tough go for the. steelers. because this game probably moves to what. sunday then so they just have a regular. full week as opposed to. by the way the potential bye week. weekend that they had on the other side. of this. no more steelers you thought you had to. buy earlier no no no. no you thought you had like a four day. week nah nah. this is going into the weekend i assume. that is definitely on the table. uh and they would probably just change. the timing of the games i would assume.
they would bump them either all back. or separate them a little bit more if i. had i mean it takes all of us and if the. ravens don't realize that then that's. our fault. i wonder what happened over there you. know they lose in overtime of the titans. and then the next day both running backs. have it okay so let's assume those two. are with somebody. right oh yeah and then immediately isn't. the contact tracing supposed to do. something right and then they were like. there's no contact tracing though. it's very interesting how this is all. working out because some facilities just. a few weeks ago. if somebody got tested or tested. positive and they were out of the. building. they just don't stay home lock them down.
they would clean sweep the entire. facility and everybody would go to work. the next day. the browns found out they had somebody. pausing and they're working from home. today so it's like kind of the beginning. of the year. whenever they heard that somebody tested. positive in the nfl nobody would go to. the facility let's shut it down who. knows what's going to happen. then as the nfl had more and more cases. kind of pop up and they figure out that. they were able to neutralize them just. by keeping the at-risk party at home and. everybody else can kind of still work. so we're not going to shut down the. facility we're still going to do our. thing and now the browns are going back. i wonder if there was. did we learn that the way of sending.
people keeping people at home and just. going about your work day was failing i. wonder with the. information that they're hearing and why. people are doing what they do i assume. the the staying at home part now is part. of like the. now that they've doubled down on the. more intensive protocols like that may. be part of it oh yeah i forgot that they. do. hey listen we're going to get to the. playoffs oh yeah all right. we don't care we threw you out there. whenever you didn't practice for a whole. week we don't. we do not care okay you we can't do the. bubble i understand because there's. too many people and it has to be. too big we'd have to build our own city.
maybe bezos should have done that we. should have thought about that. wait we could have done it we can't do. the bubble but you know what we can do. these protocols that we're about to. rack up is basically a bubble and guys. are still getting it. and i'll be intrigued to see if guys go. the opposite direction on these. protocols you know. it's it's almost i don't want to say. that all nfl players have like a. maverick gene or like a rebel gene but i. feel like. if you tell people they're not allowed. to do certain things and it gets. the grasp gets tighter and tighter on. people as.
the goal diminishes. right because their team's starting to. stink if or has no chance at the. playoffs. i'll be intrigued to see how that gets. handled you know because you you would. think. you know hey you're in the nfl you get. to play that's right privilege. especially now. in the world that we're in you have no. right. to be pissed off about the world that. you're living in because the world that. we're all living in. you have to figure that out but then you. can also say like oh it's a. human you know and if you're. being told that you have to do all this.
to get this and this is no longer. possible. okay so how to you just gotta expect. that a human's gonna do that. but you would hope hey it takes all of. us thanks all right. you're getting paid money to do this all. right this is your job now. all right you used to think you got paid. for practice you don't get paid for. practicing. no you get paid to isolate okay. be hard be a human though you know very. very hard. especially when you're on 11. yeah yeah. yeah 0 11 maybe 2 and whatever. three and whatever five and whatever and.
you know you have no chance unless. you're in the nfc east you're like. okay yeah i'll just you know what i'll. do i'll come here hate my life here. not allowed to talk to eat or with. anybody talk to anybody then i'll go. home and i'll just lock myself in my. room and i'll hate myself here i got it. okay we'll do this for the next five. weeks. and what we're saying is that's what you. gotta do gotta do it. god it sounds fair at boston connor uh. at ty schmidt. a thankful wednesday you guys were very. very very serious about getting a thank. you and as. a group i believe as a pair uh would you.
guys like to take it from here. yeah we just wanted to give a a special. thank you on thank you wednesday to um. take thank you. love you today i love you taker has done. a lot for all of us i think we can. we can all agree on that and you know. everyone was getting their opportunity i. wanted to make sure we wanted to make. sure that. we got our chance too so thank you thank. you ty for those who don't know that is. undertaker. okay and they celebrated 30 years of.
undertaker at survivor series on sunday. they had it in three decades. [Applause]. was thank you taker and boy some of. those. some of those messages saying thanks to. undertaker. were very interesting i don't think any. of us could have expected undertaker to. have that. type of reach in that type of appeal but. he was trending for i think 48 hours. some of them were giving him credit for. their children. their entire life.
undertaker was awesome yeah i agree but. boy he affected some people much more. than others. and uh we saw a lot of that on twitter. and you two just couldn't help but you. know really. really just go ahead and put a megaphone. on that i mean he's been a father figure. for so many that if we didn't. shine a spotlight on tiger then i mean. what would we be doing as a society. out there who are these guys yeah i mean. it's not really should we. we're not ready.
[Laughter]. [Music]. you get it. [Laughter]. need you take love you take one.
that's what everybody knows that that. was that one was for us. that old last five minutes there yeah. was strictly for the office. and taken. okay so i forget those 30 years legit. man i was reading some things on twitter. about what taker did for people. long time man that was crazy yeah. it really was i'm gonna tell you it. might be the most impactful human ever. exists. he baptized the child. [Laughter].
take the pope more like it by the way. thank you take it i thank you thank you. thank you uh viva lazida what is your. poll for the day. we have a thanksgiving poll today what's. your favorite side for thanksgiving. we threw three out there right now mac. and cheese and last 25.1. a lot of people say it does not go with. thanksgiving though very shocking in the. comments. well that's interesting because we only. put it in there because russell wilson. has a cooking with russ segment now on.
his instagram. where he had a top chef teach him and. his chef. how to make good macaroni and cheese it. was a very delicious looking meal. and he said macaroni cheese great side. so we that's why it made it on yeah. because i was really confused by that. russell wilson i thought. was he a liar said yesterday if he had. his choice he would only have mac and. cheese. i love mac and cheese and i would assume. that the the people who eat mac and. cheese like. they'll put they'll bring out any reason. to eat maca cheese like my wife. loves mac and cheese oh yeah and that.
thing it goes with a lot of things i did. not i would never. have expected it does anything i have. seen mac and cheese. plenty of thank giving uh thanksgiving. yeah i just don't think it's one of the. upper tier items really really on this. side finish your last two sorry. stuffing's next at 36.5 percent. and mashed potatoes thirty eight point. two thanks yeah mashed potatoes people. are all you know like they they just do. exactly what they're told correct. potatoes thanksgiving like turkey and. mashed potatoes let's have a great. thanksgiving okay we get it but.
we've experienced it now. stuffing is 10 to 15 times better than. mashed potatoes. i've never soft i've never greeted it i. just i just want to watch that. i've never agreed with you more it's we. understand that mashed potatoes were a. staple of a lot of things for a long. time. yeah we get easy to make this is before. we had taste buds and stuff like that. before. people were like let's make i understand. that mashed taters. are important in the fabric of you know. just. families in existence okay i get it but.
you cannot look. that deep fried turkey in the. eye and say hey. these taters taste better with you than. that stuffing right there that. came. right out of the inside of you right. there i mean you got to be me. right now it feels like we're forgetting. the mash and now we're gonna have to. start a. thank you man as well because master. basically the taker of the thanksgiving. dinner it's not true. yeah it's been a long it's been around a. lot longer than 30 years now okay yeah. okay bruno san martino is the mashed.
potatoes okay that is the mashed. potatoes. the man that was the champion for like. 20 years straight that is what mashed. potatoes was. bruno san martino by the way great. pittsburgh guy great italian guy. badass sold out madison square garden. all the way up into canada okay. i love bruno san martino what i'm saying. is. i think things have evolved you know i. think things have evolved now you can't. see. particular wrestlers that are at the top. of the world you know what i mean. there's things that have evolved. that's what mashed potatoes is it's the. staple okay it held it down.
it was great okay all right have it on. the side needs so much salt to make it. taste worth a single at all. but it like put it on the side the damn. glue of the entire meal. this stuffing is inside the. turkey that's true and it's the glue. the gourd yeah gravy's the glue that. brings it all together. now granted gravy on taters mashed. potatoes. really good you know why because the. gravy is unbelievable. and by the way the gravy i would say was.
potentially the next step. after the mashed potatoes because. everybody got so sick of it they're like. can we add some flavor to this. thing. we're just let's add some gravy now the. gravy becomes big thanksgiving i put. butter and corn and gravy on top of my. mashed potatoes because they're just not. good enough by themselves yeah. damn you they do need a lot of salt and. pepper yeah well that's because they. stink. you guys have to get a new potato chef. tell you that much well. if you go like deep double fried or. something double baked twice baked. triple. top those are good listen i'm not saying. all potatoes are bad sounds like it.
sounds like it bashing the only good. thing that came out of ireland here we. me don't go leave it. [Music]. i would rattle off all the things that. ireland created that are awesome okay. right now i would but we don't have. enough time and i don't want you to. distract conversation because that's. what somebody does whenever they're. losing the conversation. and i don't have time for that snake. what i'm saying is if you. if you think about all the things we ran. those out of there yeah st. patrick's day march 17th you're welcome. everybody.
nick let's talk about um let's talk. about the things that potatoes have done. well. okay okay that double baked one good i. think baked potato. with all the in it right not a load. can't eat it alone because if you eat. alone guess what. mashed potatoes so you put all the. in there it is good. i think uh tater tots unbelievable i'm a. big tater tot. fan absolutely big tater tot french fry. fan. big fan except for the steak fries you. know why steak fries got mashed potatoes. inside of them they're the worst.
fries. they get this gets me right back to the. point that the people that are voting. for mashed potatoes the number one side. are just told that they're supposed to. vote that their entire life and i'd like. them to potentially. open their horizons in their taste buds. breaking news we're tied. we're tied we're tied now let's see this. is a good campaign we're going over. 37.7 his little boring ass terrible. tasting thing no no no. crashing right now water will find his. level mash will. win this poll there's no doubt about it. yeah listen i like stuffing too but you.
acting like it's some flavorful burst in. your mouth it's just soft bread and. celery. well you're not having the right. stuffing dude stove top bro. no hell no oh that's nice italian stuff. you throw a little prosciutto in there. oh. i love it are you kidding me i didn't. even know that existed. that guy's number one potato product is. potato skin so he needs to step himself. out of the conversation. very good tgi fries potatoes kids you. don't get any better than that. what's that make potato it's fried.
though that's all that is right just. kind of cutting the corn or it's tasting. cooked with all the loadings. yeah it's got cheese and bacon on it and. chives now there's no chance i'm going. with that over a tater tot if a tater. tot is available and there's loaded tots. in certain places. you can't get that for delivery though. because then you know the loadedness. ruins the. whatever but boy if you can get the tots. you get the thoughts hey and shout out. to napoleon dynamite too just basically. make an entire movie off that goddamn. thing you know why i like the tgi. fridays uh potatoes get the best it has. the least amount of potato so it's the.
least amount of mashed potato potatoes. what we're saying is. the best potato products have the least. amount of. potential mashed potato involved with it. okay. that's all we're saying so whenever. you're voting on this poll. at viva lozito's poll we're telling you. to please take it serious because. you want all that way to make sure you. were. registered to vote and then you vote on. his poll. your vote matters counts your vote.
counts. your vote says something about this. election is a fraud i mean the italian. vote is going to completely take over. here and it's not even going to be. the thing that did affect our argument. about the stuffing over the mashed. potatoes. is that just moments before that we. talked about how you're normally blocked. out while eating the thanksgiving day. so everything kind of tastes good i'm.
also a fan of starting thanksgiving. dinner at noon. [Laughter]. you're right you're right that's so. everybody that was thinking that get off. it. how about that yeah because i heard you. just you just mentioned something i. think about him not. even remember an eating thanksgiving. dinner or something like that yeah yeah. that can't happen he. he's in noon dude he eats it in there. by the way my comment by the way dicks. happy thanksgiving man happy. thanksgiving happy thanksgiving hey. let's enjoy this stuffing let's enjoy it. you know i've been on keto for like a. month or whatever.
tomorrow it's a stuffing day dude. now granted maybe mashed potatoes too. because a lot of carbs and nose. somehow they have a lot of carbs with no. flavor you usually go. the carbs bring the flavor out yeah i. mean like that's why the keto diet is so. difficult because. you know muscle stuff if you're not. eating meat you there's really nothing. with flavor because the carbs are in. flavor but. potatoes like wait a minute i. can do that for you and just comes in. with the mashed potatoes you ever seen. the martian. guy to put vicodin on his potatoes to. make it tolerable yeah. and that's out of this world dude he was.
living. out of this world that's when he was. dead that guy. eat what you want just make sure before. you sink your teeth into whatever you. want you think. for what he's done in these past 30. years let's get to a break we'll answer. some photos on the other side just a big. sports show there's a lot of sports. stuff to talk about. get that sideboard please foxy yes sir. big sale friday sale still happening. thanksgiving day games harbaugh on. variable details oh yeah it's come out. what was said between harbaugh and. vrebel or whatever pretty much exactly.
what. i mean i obviously added a lot of words. okay because i was just hoping that. under this mask because they were it. taking all of us they knew that so we. couldn't see what they were saying. they didn't say as much but it was. basically the. similar thing i preferred your. interpretation. oh song. thankful for this.
[Music]. that's an absolute heater obviously mike. glennon is starting for the jaguars. the nfl playoff picture college football. playoff is out i'm not happy about where. they got the cincinnati bearcats. cincinnati bearcats. are undefeated dominating people have. the right. maturity on their team they won last.
year. the year before that guys were getting. started it feels like this is a. very similar case to ucf uh from years. back. but in 2020 a lot of teams aren't. playing full schedule so maybe. this was the year that a team like that. could slip on in there. cincinnati has that team it feels like a. good team. they got athletic corners they got a. fast defense. so they'll be able to keep up i think. with the good teams normally the. conversation revolves around. whenever those power six schools play.
against power five legit schools. they can't keep up because the players. are just such better athletes and i do. believe. that is probably pretty accurate in a. lot of cases this cincinnati team though. athletic squad they they are very. athletic it's it's very similar. um to the west virginia team that i was. on granted they're built differently. than us. and i'm not saying desmond ritter is pat. white but we had a great athletic team. so we could keep up with georgia when we. beat georgia oklahoma when we beat. oklahoma because of how athletic we were. i think that same thing with cincinnati.
i think if they had a chance this year. with this team. to play against some good teams i think. they'd be. i think they'd have a great showing but. to rank too low they're never going to. be able to make it up in there. which is kind of a bummer uh for fickle. and the boys over there in the state of. cincinnati we got a lot of other stuff. talked about as well. including your phone calls 1888 mad dog. six about 30 minutes into hour one here. on this thankful wednesday november 25th. 2020 on siriusxm we'll see on the other. side. [Music].
this is remember the titans how's it. going. my name is pat mcafee i do a lot of. things. today i am a professional analyst. getting ready for the thursday night. football opener. in beautiful nippert stadium with the. cincinnati bearcats here at higher. ground. this secluded world.

[Music]. all the time.
[Applause]. thank you. this has been so cool to see whenever we. were driving out here into the sticks. my boys and i from indianapolis we were. told by coach fickle it was a 40-minute. drive from where we live. absolute lie hour and a half out here. uh but as we were getting out here we. didn't know what we were gonna show up. to and this is such a cool. scene here i remember whenever i was in.
college we won a lot of games beat. cincinnati a couple times it was a great. day. but i remember my boys right like i. still am in touch with them every single. day every single week. we had this moment where we went from. boys to become men and you guys were a. really young team last year but they got. to experience a lot of wins. like now the expectation levels are high. and i can't wait to talk you all up on. thursday night against ucla ucla refused. to respond to my. tweet so i am a bearcat fan on that. opening night and i cannot wait to watch. you guys dominate.
and uh i think this is such a cool thing. coach i can't thank you enough for your. hospitality i got a bunch of swag from. you guys too this has been a cool day. enjoy this though this doesn't happen a. lot even when you get into the nfl it's. not like college. it's not like you're boys it's not like. this it's a whole different world that. you'll remember forever and. i was honored to be here to watch you. today and i can't wait to watch you guys. go win today on thursday night and then. throughout the rest of the season.

friday sale is happening twenty percent. off store.patmagvyshow.com. that started last friday for every. purchase that is made in there you enter. yourself not every purchase. um every uh oh person that makes a. purchase there it is for every. every person that makes a purchase is. automatically entered in. uh to win one of our three ps5s we've. got wow. yeah i mean we might put the cart before. the horse a little bit two of them have. definitely been confirmed the third one. is still on its way but we will find a.
third one if we have to i mean. they are findable it's just uh how much. you're gonna get dodged for it yeah. exactly and uh turns out people are. dodging pretty hard. i mean they are god's good guys uh. thanksgiving day games we'll talk about. that the the biggest one right now is. now granted andy dalton and the cowboys. take it on the washington football team. i mean that's a big game okay. in the nfc who knows who's gonna win. that are the cowboys the team. that we thought they were or are they. the team that showed up against the. minnesota vikings last weekend is andy.
dalton on a revenge tour. after people in dallas said that start. gary gilbert over andy thought ain't. done gets his head knocked off gets. covered can't taste the damn thing then. comes back it's a win. against the minnesota vikings now he. plays the washington football team. on thanksgiving i like the cowboys in. this one uh. and i also like what tony pollard's been. doing it feels like he's a real spark. for the. for the cowboys the washington football. team probably knows that. if i had to guess they probably know. that that happened um.
but that game is obviously happening. then the lions. the lions play against the texas now. with the lions playing the texans. you have to ask yourself who has more. to gain on this prime time world. watching. game is it jj watt who potentially wants. out of houston. and wants the world to know that he's. still got it is it sean watson. who is now going to be the franchise in. jj what by the way we don't know if he. wants out by the way that is. he said he's not a part of a rebuild so. if they're not planning on rebuilding.
which i don't know how they'll be able. to rebuild they don't have any money or. draft pick so. maybe they're just maybe they're. currently in them. maybe they're not rebuilding that's. going to be where they're at right now. next year but anyways let's say j.j watt. potentially wants to leave and if the. texans cut him. they get 17 million dollars added to the. cap it's nothing against there. they can cut him after this year jj watt. prime time game. uh when stars come out uh when the. lights come on the stars come out. prime time players make prime time plays. in prime time games i think j.j watt. probably has a rather large game. tomorrow. i think desean watson also has a rather.
large game tomorrow. and on the lion side you have to think. is matthew stafford after getting shut. out against carolina panthers now he's. going to be on prime time television he. missed last year remember we had drew. blau. whatever it was is matthew stafford. going to come in. and show out and say hey somebody come. rescue me from this entire existence of. being a lion. i mean this is a tough one to judge the. lions got shut out last week lost 20 to. nothing. uh to pj walker in his first start for. the carolina panthers. but they have won games in the past that. make you go oh they're a good team.
in the texans it's like can they be good. tomorrow because it's on national. television maybe this is a tough one to. pick i think this one. this one has me very stumped i would. assume as a lions fan. you think the lions are gonna win on. thanksgiving yes i do pat if you would. ask me on monday. when the lions literally came off the. worst game i've ever watched in my life. yeah i was that they're dead. fire patricia fire quinn all this stuff. but after what aaron rodgers said about. matthew stafford yesterday. you gotta love the lions in this game so. you have to do you think the boys heard. what aaron rodgers.
absolutely absolutely he heard matt he's. because the world's talking about that. by the way. what was said about matthew stafford by. aaron rodgers on this show yesterday. uh alongside aj hawk he said um he said. you know he's been doing the no-look. pass for a long time. it's a guy wears number nine in detroit. and his arm angle is insane. so i think aaron rodgers just want to. give a little love to matthew stafford. uh because the lines kind of disappear. into relevancy. uh irrelevancy like week negative one. right every single nfl season so. you don't even know anything about. matthew stafford unless you pay. attention to lines like we were forced.
to because. foxy is here you really quickly realize. like. oh okay uh stafford's very good at. football but he just has no chance up. there because there's so many curses. hitting the alliance. so you think potentially aaron rodgers. also. expanding that shine onto the lines a. little bit. you think that offense comes out and. balls out for matthew stafford is that. what you're saying yeah i think this is. like a farewell game right we have. nothing to play for at this. point stafford's probably going to leave. after this season patricia is going to. be gone. gm's going to be gone and the boys gonna. be like all right matthew.
this one's for you this one's. for matt that's awesome uh that one's a. tough one. for me i i really like the cowboys. tomorrow and i think i'm even trying to. put together a super boost and even. though super moose have been a bit. chilly they are going to get hot on. thanksgiving. just like the stuffing that comes out of. a turkey. it tastes more delicious than any other. side that's available there. uh all by itself uh where are you gonna. say the lions are three in one when. kenny gallaudet plays uh one in five. when he doesn't.
uh it doesn't look good for him playing. this week oh. your stafford was sacked like six times. last game too so i'm very nervous about. jake. he has a broken thumb too yeah jj had a. great game against the pats like. five past deflections or whatever his. swats. so hot yeah so foxy's on the lions yeah. i mean home game thanksgiving underdogs. yeah yeah texans baby all right let's. take some phone calls here and then the. steelers ravens. who don't even know if that game is. going to happen with how many ravens are. out but with all the ravens that are out.
you automatically go well the steeger's. going to win this game. but the the steeler fans here nick and. diggs were like not so fast man okay. we won this game against the ravens when. the ravens were really good with who at. quarterback you you had a chuck batch. charlie batch won one of these games a. quarterback without ben ross iron left. which i think won one down there too the. offense coordinator for the buccaneers. won one for. the pittsburgh steelers uh now not this. michael vick i believe won a game. potentially for the steelers. against the ravens so i'm not saying. michael vick deserves to be. in that conversation right there because.
michael vick was an unbelievable. football player whenever he was playing. football unbelievably we all understand. that he threw a goddamn nerf ball out of. the stadium everything whistled. the entire way out what was that thing. the vortex the vortex. that thing hurts so bad to play catch oh. god it was like lawn darts dude. throwing that vortex ball was like lawn. darts but it could move and you could. sometimes. smack it and light it up at night and. really chuck it around and that thing. would whistle i mean that would if you. got it going down it was coming in. really nice there. uh so i'm not saying that but this game. legitimate like.
throw the records out the window it does. feel like the raven steelers. uh will continue to be that strictly. because harbaugh and tama know each. other so well steelers know what they're. doing. the ravens don't stand a chance they're. screwed. they're dead they're dead do you think. the ravens are dead they don't care. about football they forgot about. how it takes all of us they're done with. it the running backs are out. and you mentioned what about contact. racing i believe the ravens titans game. there's a little rain. so we know with cove when it rains that.
actually. dismantles the contact tracing so the. ones who got it it's because they went. out after the game. probably to a jimmy seafood and you. probably think. [Music]. and i got a tweet from jimmy's you know. what i mean and yeah you guys got the. greatest crab cakes i've ever had in my. life. okay you got great food all right cool. we get it we can't hear it. it's a good time there too it's not just. an incredible restaurant you also turn.
that place into a club somehow. and it works normally that doesn't work. for those types of players we get it but. you guys. brought down the whole goddamn ravens. organization. with how much of a good time you guys. are and you got the ravens players in. there. trying to trying to have a good time and. drink away the loss of the titans in. overtime. they're having these crab kicks all of. these are so good you know it's sorry. good thank you and then they're like hey. give me a hug you i've never seen before. you got covered come on in that's. that's we don't care it's cause jimmy's.
brings people together. that's what it does too well which by. the way can't have that. can't be doing it around this time ever. maybe ever again. especially thanksgiving jimmy's jimmy's. crab cakes are. so good well now it seems they are too. good. yeah that's what i'm saying destroy the. goddamn team and with that being said. the steelers will probably beat the. ravens by you know two touchdowns i know. i i. felt that very early and i was actually. going to make that a massive super boost. for me as the steelers i was asking you. to do an alternate spread.
whoa yes i was gonna do steelers. alternate spread minus. and a half ten digs stopped what he was. doing i was on the phone i was like. i was talking to the fanduel people i. was like i think the boost i want is. maybe steelers alternate spread and i. see tone stop what he's doing he like. stops walking and i go. minus 10 and tone just turns like slowly. turns to me. and just goes so disappointed and he. just looks at me like. come the on man don't do that to. the steelers right now we are hot. this would be a great game to win but i.
agree with you i'm not going to make it. the super boost. because subarus we need to have a win. okay and i might have been getting a bit. careless with the teasers with three. different teams having to show up and. we're in the middle of the season all. that stuff. we need to win i'm going with the. cowboys and a tony pollard touchdown i. think. i think that's going to be in the boost. by the way is. very large yeah very very large so it. should be pretty good i just feel good. about that. the steelers one growing up watching the. steelers play the ravens it is always a. very weird game like they are weird. games okay. they're going to fight each other.
there's going to be something big that's. going to happen. i don't know if uh this is the same. ravens team though now they think. ravens teams of the past that would. fight the steelers the tennessee titans. come on. by the way without a helmet malcolm. butler had on i watched that video back. he didn't even have a helmet so. that's if he thought there was. potentially going to be something that. was going to happen you'd think he would. have a helmet on. nothing happens harbaugh obviously goes. out there vrabel comes out it has come. on now. that frable basically told him to go. coach and uh harbaugh said it's. disrespectful. and and uh foreign tell him to go coach.
he's he's telling the ref basically. it's disrespectful tell him to coach. again go coach. against disrespectful that was kind of. the give and take or whatever. uh so it's very interesting that old. thing but the old ravens teams. i think you guys are referring to with. the steelers in your conversation about. that. the old ravens teams would have been out. there and if they saw a guy without a. helmet he's potentially getting. you know at least a right hand. immediately upon that thing with a push. like a fake push right hand there. now it might be a completely different. range we don't know what they are.
yeah i mean t-sizzle's at the 50-yard. line if this is oh yeah. imagine ray i mean what do you mean. yeah we don't have to we don't have to. run. we've seen what it you guys don't need. to relax well. i mean look jury okay yeah okay. this is america huh yeah he went to a. jury dude let's go to joseph in. california what's going on. i watched that uh i watched a showtime. show inside the nfl. yeah how is it him he's on brandon. marshall. uh sims dad and um phil.
the other guy uh host great host god. damn it dance no no no that's. play-by-play james brown. uh i think it is james uh yeah oh yeah. yeah yeah yeah yeah awesome show by the. way it is a good show i watched it last. night it is an awesome show. and i think i haven't watched in like a. year or two i watched last night it was. a good show what do they do just mics. uh the miced up segments they tell the. story then they react and they throw a. football around to each other. ooh they're wearing great suits a great. studio it's on showtime. they could probably swear i think they.
don't though like everyone's on there. too uh. i don't not last night joseph what do. you want to talk about but sorry about. that. no it's all right pat what's going on i. hope you and the boys are having a good. wednesday. oh yeah joseph thanks for watching yeah. i wanted to say i'm thankful for you. guys you guys helped me out every day. three hours while i'm floating. gears out here in california so i'm. thankful for that. [Applause]. hey you got buggy up here on the left. now the um pedro. we appreciate you greatly bob but you.
know i've been floating gears since i. was like 14 15 years old and the old. man's truck you know i mean i can kind. of float him if i have to do you know. what i mean you're an entertainer. you know what i mean i also ran my face. on the side of one yeah on a bicycle. yeah now tim mcafee uh put me out there. in the side yard and i was going in. circles i was going in circles i i felt. like i was pretty good and then. i said might as well go down the front. hill which is uh basically a cliff. and uh turns out i didn't have the. brakes figured out here ah. yeah right into the side of the truck. yeah that's why this nose is the way it.
is. literally i think because of that yeah. what's up josiah mcfee did the old jump. from the porch down there grab. oh my god is he dead nice yeah the whole. thing. i got back on that bike though don't you. yeah yeah i had to do it anyways justin. what's going on bub. pat i had a question about wrestling i. know it's a big wrestling show. and i know you're in thank you if. there's. if there's anybody from the past that. you could wrestle alongside with. who would it be and why what um i think.
me and old steve austin would be a. hilarious little tag team there but. today. to even every day i think would have. been good you know i mean if i was in. uh d generation x would have been cool. to be a part of obviously because you. just can uh. you know just walk around telling people. to suck all the time i mean i pretty. much was part of. the generation x in in you know school. which wasn't. always well received by the way by a lot. of people i don't think everybody was. necessarily uh. wrestling fans that were uh supervisors. and stuff at school which was wow. they didn't fully understand what you. were doing but i feel like i was part of.
um you know maybe you know if i could. have rode. in the car with uh bill moody which is. paul bearer and undertaker one time. i think i would have learned a lot about. life in that those cars oh yeah as well. yeah the ministry of darkness you would. fit right in yeah yeah yeah. oh yes there's bill moody right there. that was awesome what's up diggs uh eric. ebron. and devlin hodges doc hodges just both. tweeted that this is. oh so the game oh game's getting moved. all right so. um right here yep it is.
currently 12 48 eastern standard time on. this thankful wednesday november 25th. 2020. uh tomorrow's thanksgiving we hope. you have a great holiday and we hope you. do in an incredibly safe fashion. when you eat the turkey go ahead and. grab that stuffing before anything else. because it's better than every other. option on the table. don't even think about mashed potatoes. because mashed potatoes aren't good. unless you put everything that's good on. top of it. the mashed potatoes were good about 100. years ago they have evolved. we are appreciative of them but if you.
grab the mashed potatoes before the. stuffing. you are a stooge now while you're eating. that food or maybe you're potentially in. a coma. coming out of eating that food from. earlier in the day a game that was. supposed to be played. is the baltimore ravens versus the. pittsburgh steelers that game is. happening. in pittsburgh that is an afc north. matchup where people battle. each other and it is very very grand and. pond. tough football game pittsburgh steelers. undefeated coming into this game. earlier in the year they were forced to. take an early bye week whenever kovid. hit the tennessee titans now.
on this thursday night game thanksgiving. game. with a hot steelers team the baltimore. ravens have at least five players that. have tested positive for covid. two players from the pittsburgh steelers. named duck hodges who is most famous for. registering people to vote and eric. ebron who's a tight end for the. pittsburgh steelers. both have tweeted that this is. there has been rumors that the game is. potentially going to be postponed. because of the covet outbreak in the. baltimore ravens facility will it get. moved to sunday. will it get moved to monday tuesday will.
they have a week. 18 will they do other things there's a. lot of potential outcomes here. and we will continue to update as the. news comes in and we must add. in that we are only saying that this. game is potentially postponed. because two members of a team that would. be potentially getting here. have tweeted that this is wow. this is wild these 18. playoff on both sides. it's gonna happen this is yeah this i. mean you're still not in so. you saw no but it's not that steelers. aren't gonna get a bye now.
you heard the new england patriots fan. in the middle of that start celebrating. and pumping. right his hand celebrating uh that's. because. the nfl has had a conversation that if a. week 18. is needed they will also add a one other. team in each conference. into the playoffs making it a 16 uh team. playoff. eight per each side this year they upped. it from six to seven. now they're going from seven to eight. because of the potential postponements. and games having to matter at the end of. the season. the pittsburgh steelers now even if they. were to go undefeated.
would not have a bye week after it or. they would have a home playoff game. after having their bye week in week four. of this season all odds are stacked. against the pittsburgh steelers. and things are only getting worse if. this game is officially postponed. off of thanksgiving uh. okay so we have breaking news now diana. rossini who is. she announced the titans postponement i. do believe she was. of espn at diana espn the steelers and.
ravens game which was scheduled for. thanksgiving night. has been moved to sunday per source so. this is says duck hodges and. eric ebron. pittsburgh steelers fan at tony meatball. digs over there. he's not happy about it now there's a. potential week 18. which was a week that the nfl had. considered adding. in there in case there was no other. games to be able to be moved or be not. they're doing this on sunday okay here. we go the. the week 18 not alive yet not alive yet. cleveland browns had a positive this.
morning though. uh maybe there will be a oh no buckle up. this season is going to get very very. good uh confirming. um previous reports ian rappaport at rap. sheet the raven steelers game previously. set for thursday night is being. postponed to sunday afternoon. the first in several weeks here we go. dude. will this is john harbaugh that. piece of dude. really yeah i mean he cries about. forever he cries about. everything not too bad for a running. back we have running back quarterback. stinks that's why they move the game.
they had to give him a couple extra days. to try to make this a. competitive advantage game. wow. is that whatever it's at right now. they're taking the ravens out back on. sunday. oh no i would like to let you know. though. that we thought this was potentially. going to happen to the tennessee titans. they couldn't practice the oakland raid. or the las vegas raiders they couldn't. practice. they come and play good football by the. way yeah ravens won't be able to. practice all week no matter who's in or.
who's out right. all five players probably not going to. be able to assume there's going to be. more so they won't be able to practice. going into sunday. the only thing that sucks is the. pittsburgh steelers now. not only did they be forced into a bye. week that they didn't know it was a bye. week until friday of the bye week okay. early because tennessee titans week four. uh now they've monday too they even have. a tuesday off this week. no yeah very interesting. everyone else in the league gets covered. well we're not postponing the game we'll. do everything we can to keep playing the.
game yeah now all of a sudden we gotta. move games around. it's uh stateless fans are not. happy that is why this game's getting. moved again too. it's getting moving monday or tuesday. then the steelers are gonna have to play. up for it. yeah now we gotta watch two games. on thanksgiving we don't get to watch. good teams play football. that does sting that does yeah exactly. diggs will be. blacked out probably now even earlier. than normal on things. let's start probably soon as. shows over this is. that brutal listen first of all.
we hope everybody survives of course as. well i didn't hear a lot of that out of. tone or out of nick right there no. i don't care did you hear any potential. thought about any of these ravens. players. dying okay huh them it's rivalry. baby oh geez. that is not we hope we hope they survive. the dominator says he's got a point he's. gone.
no i and this the ravens not only are. screwing up this game this is going to. screw up their buy. the ravens are the ones now we're going. to the steelers out of a bye. it's wild it's great hey i watch a. queen's gambit. oh this is the sicilian clothes it is. this is. they're close to cilia i mean this is. this is battling it out with the. the knights though you're battling it. with the knights in the middle of the. board here this is. this is high level thinking by old. harbor yeah i can't beat them on the.
field gotta resort to chemical warfare. real nice. gotta bring the virus over here. oh geez that does stink though for now. listen we hope everybody survives okay. sure of course but that stinks for the. holiday big time. we got lions texans cowboys football. team. this is old school thanksgiving football. only two teams wanted to play on. thanksgiving every year. and now they turn it into a complete. market mess. cowboys lions thanksgiving football.
it's all you need the nfl has officially. released the statement saying the ravens. and steelers have been moved to sunday. afternoon. the decision was made out of an. abundance of caution to ensure the. health and safety of players see. that's what takes us against them that's. what the shield has to think about is. the health insane well they should have. worried about their own health and. safety when they were out at jimmy's. seafood party. well the interesting thing there would. be a lot of players would say well. you're caring about the health and. safety of the players obviously in this. case but. we're playing on thursday which is only. three games rest in week 12. so.
huh well ponder that hour one's wrapping. up hour two we'll be joined by mike. allstar. about six minutes on this wednesday go. take a. why is football the greatest sport on. earth and do you think football's. greatest sport on north and why do you. like football. that's a really deep question there pat. i know i think i'd get a good answer out. of you though like i think you'd be able. to talk about it in a way that i think a. lot of people haven't because you've. been at the pinnacle of it for so damn.
long and inside of it. and your brain is a pretty fantastic one. we've learned here over the last few. weeks obviously last few weeks that's it. that's all the time we've learned that. i think it's the greatest sport in the. world for. one main reason it is a true team sport. where. it is damn near impossible for one. person to dominate an entire game. if you look at other team sports uh. basketball with. five guys on the court i think you've. seen multiple players over the years. maybe one player or maybe one or two.
players on a squad be able to dominate. and win championships. baseball you can have a dominant pitcher. and win championships soccer you can. have a dominant forward. and or goalie that seems to be a little. more of a team sport but you don't have. 11. players engaged at the same time on. every play it is truly. a sport reliant on. every player on the field to do their. job in order to be successful. and i think that's why at times.
you know certain star players can get. maybe too much credit and maybe too much. blame. on the flip side because it does take so. many players. at the same time in three phases to win. football games. and i think guess the beauty and the. draw of our sport is that. something new happens all the time. because you are literally dealing with. 11 humans on the field. at one time who all have lives outside. of football and there's distractions. there's a reliance on coaching there's a.
reliance on preparation there's a. reliance on diet and performance. i just think there's so many facets to. it that you see something new every. single week and i think that's the. beauty in our game. when it comes to the love that i have. for it it's rooted and i think like any. uh any player who's played for a long. time the. love is not just about our sport. it's about competition i think there's. nothing. in the world for me that fills that.
need and that hole i have like. competition. i think we you know if players. played for a long time at a high level. you have that. need to be satiated competitively and. and it's a love of. going out there and going against. guys and be an environment where you. know that nothing is guaranteed. and that's why at times have taken uh. umbrage to people saying that it's easy.
because it's not easy. it's never easy and i think that's the. beauty in our game is that you see. things. new every single week it's never easy. and your only thing you're guaranteed. is the ability to compete uh. i love that aspect of i love competing i. love going out there. and harnessing the fear of failure where. i think so many people who. maybe don't love football as much the. root of that is. is a deep fear of failure that you might.
go out there. and your best might not be good enough. and that's not okay with you. there's a grown man with face paint on. it so you're big nut i am and you're. you're a little nut well i've had a few. of those in my life. i'll tell you what big nut i hope to. find you one day on my wedding night. big night you did a great job too the. lines are straight no dui problem there.
you're really doing a great job here big. nut i love everything you're about buddy. because we are going to win the game he. just spit my mouth while saying that. the most likely team to make the college. football playoffs. he said khakis are way too close to that. team from up north if you don't put. black pants. [Applause].
ladies and gentlemen eddie george that. offense are led by justin fields he has. 41 touchdowns accounted for only one. turnover. i don't know how he isn't the heisman. favorite right now well he certainly has. a chance to make a stick at that today. certainly next week and mike mcqueary. told me i wasn't penn state material. okay herbie was your quarterback he was. a senior european. what was he like as a teammate oh he was. great man big big shoulder pads. kirk could run for days back in the day.
back in the day. [Applause]. leave a guy that can break every single. bone in my body stephen how you doing. they're down 6-1 she wants to flex on. the gram. he says lady we are getting slaughtered. by the pittsburgh pigs.
[Applause]. [Music]. oh. [Music].
[Music]. the pat mcafee show there will be no. rules for our guests for us for the. things we could talk about. speaking his mind i've never had a. problem expressing my opinions or my. thoughts or anything like that. while being relatable i haven't had that. manufactured. fake ass celebrity that a lot of people. have whenever they go on those big. networks i've had a chance to really.
build my crew build my following build. my audience and ridiculous what am i. supposed to do so i'm supposed to look. at something that i can definitely. afford and say. is that what i'm supposed to do the pat. mcafee show starts. in three three two one. good afternoon beautiful people hour two. of the pat mcafee show here on siriusxm. channel 82. on this thankful wednesday november 25th. 2020 begins right. now great beat dropped by twine there.
kind of bummed to be honest yeah um. during the break there went out into the. office did a couple laps. had to walk around really take it in had. a conversation and i just put out a. tweet about it and. it's and this is gonna sound dramatic. okay i understand this is gonna sound. very dramatic and people are gonna. attack me for this thought. america needed raven steelers tomorrow. night big time needed it. that game was gonna be awesome think. about the thanksgiving. you know maybe at that particular point. something was maybe gonna pop off. between old uncle and nephew you know.
maybe something was gonna go down and. it's like excuse me. there's two teams that are gonna play. old school smash mouth football with. each other they're gonna beat the hell. out of each other it's going to be a. great football game and there's a lot on. the line for this. let's go ahead and take a moment to put. our swords aside. and watch these two try to kill each. other hell yeah you know what i mean. we needed that and if there's anything. to make me feel better. coming off of that obviously it'd be a. conversation with a man that i dreamed. of talking to for a long long time ever. since we started this show. a man who epitomizes basically what. football is born and raised in chicago.
went to purdue. got drafted to tampa bay even though he. was allegedly supposed to be a. pittsburgh steeler. goes down to tampa becomes an absolute. legend changing the game completely. he had a neck roll and combat boots on. when he played. ladies and gentlemen absolute monster. freak athlete mike alstott. how you doing buddy hey we watched your. highlights this morning for like 30. minutes. i i absolutely forgot about them calling. you the a train.
it was awesome such a great description. of the way you played. do you ever go back and watch them i i. would assume that you don't because. you're probably not just you know so. self-indulged but i would recommend it. to you. and everybody else your highlights are. awesome to watch. no i know i don't um i'm watching uh. high school football that's what i'm. gonna do now so i watched a lot of film. on uh coaching high school football so. that's all i do yeah i heard you got a. big game coming up by the way good luck. what are we in we're in the championship. or what is it what do we got going on uh.
quarterfinals round three okay so. you're coaching trent dilfer who we. watched some highlights of him throwing. you the ball he's high school coaching. up there phillip rivers has already. signed to be a high school coach. it seems like a lot of nfl guys are. getting into the high school coaching. ranks what. what made you want to do that did you. always want to coach or is it just like. something. you thought you know what i should give. back to the game here at the high school. level. i had no desire to coach i wanted to. watch my.
son and my my daughters grew up and be a. spectator and. i i got involved because i didn't uh. i really didn't feel comfortable with. the you know. the average volunteer dad coaching not. knowing uh. what the hell is going on so that's. that's that's how i got involved and. and then my uh my son was like hey if. you're not coaching i'm not playing and. i'm like all right i'm in. and it's been 12 years 13 years ever.
since so and i've been a head coach here. at uh. at the slower mat for the last nine. years sorry about my voice. but i just came off the practice field. yeah. yeah sometimes you got to let them have. it listen that and that's by the way i. love that thought. i am not a father um yet obviously we'll. see. how that goes with the world i probably. shouldn't reproduce because. one is enough of me but you i i could. see myself whenever my kid is at a. practice or something. and he comes home you know i'm like. what'd you learn in practice and he said.
something i'm like. they told you what now that okay exactly. is this exactly what happened i'd assume. no exactly i wasn't at home i was. sitting in a lawn chair. with my uh my yeti right and um. and just you know sitting there chilling. and they're all in a three-point stance. and. the coach is going around kicking out. their hand. seeing that they have all the weight on. their front hand and i'm like oh my god. what's going on here right now right and. uh so you know one thing transpired.
after another and it was like all right. i'm in. and uh i've been in ever since i love it. it's given me my. fix um since football because obviously. i'm just so passionate i love it so much. and i was kind of lost for a little bit. and it's kind of given me that uh you. know that fix as far as when it comes to. uh football the game. you know this game has given me so much. and and uh. you know i love coaching kids and they. play hard for me and. i coach them i i get tough love um and.
they know that. and um it's been great it's it's been. really a blessing for me. in in this journey so far yeah listening. to you talk whenever i. i assume they probably retired your. number or put you in the hall of fame or. something down there in tampa bay and. they did this entire piece where. they were interviewing you and you had. great tan by the way i mean it was a. great tan you got to pull though on you. know. i mean you it was a great shot they they. did and you were talking about your. plays and they were asking you about. certain plays whether it was the. super bowl third and one goal line where.
you were basically you said that. you know your entire life you've been. working for this moment there was no way. you weren't going to score and obviously. you did you guys win by like 20. something and win the super bowl it's. awesome. but you talked about your style of play. and how a lot of it was instinctual. right you're like for some reason i. could just bounce it out or whatever you. had great instincts for the game. how do you teach that is that something. you just hope that guys can. pick up your high school kids can pick. up or how do you think you got to the. point. where your instincts because you were by. the way everybody remembers you for. being a bruiser like mike also.
you think of mike goss that people think. of the pictures of that big ass neck. roll that you wore in. in the boots and everything but if you. watch the highlights which we did. literally 30 minutes of them earlier. your lateral quickness was unbelievable. it seemed like your decision making was. next level as well you were a full how. do you kind of instill that into your. high school kids whenever a lot of it is. instincts and stuff like that. preparation preparation you know just. and when we talk about. we talk about lateral i mean you work on. all that stuff you get your body. used to those type of movements um.
off-season. training whatever but um. right now in season it's all mental. preparation you've already done. the physical you know you know you've. already pre. prepared yourself physically right you. put your body through so much torture. and stuff like that. and you prepared yourself for that but. now. preparation mentally and i'm a big. advocate of the film film film film. we show our kids we film practice we.
show our kids what they're doing wrong. which or not. because they can't translate you know. words. and how to do it in the way you know if. you've been in that if we all been an. athlete in some sort of way you know. at a high level um you know we we. understand. the lingo um and some of these kids. don't see it to show them. um what they're doing wrong through film. and so i'm a big component of that like. today i had. half a practice that did film in the. morning. uh i mean excuse me did uh practice the.
morning offensive morning. and then i brought my quarterbacks in. here uh a lot of defenses going on so we. can get some film in so they can. understand. what i just installed and stuff like. that so that's that's my big. that's what i've been successful at and. i prepared a lot during. my my professional days and and. understanding. uh when they do this they're gonna do. that and when they do that they're going. to do this. so that's how that's how i've come. from my aspect successful were you an. obsessive film study or whenever you.
were playing. um you know as a fullback in. a running back you know i didn't have to. know coverage is and stuff like that all. i had to know is. the safeties tell you everything right. so if safeties roll down. this guy's going to blitz you know. obviously i had to prepare myself for. the blitzes to protect my quarterback. and. and uh mouth and slime and so that was. kind of like. what i have been trained to do my life. is wherever. the safeties will tell you everything. that's going to happen in a defensive. scheme. so um so i studied that and understood.
how to take on my different linebackers. and. and then and then go from there you. would you would. you would just bury people hey. you and obviously the commentators say. the most cliche things of all time and. they're like. you know when the a train gets into. space he's not looking for space he's. looking for another jersey to bury. as a fullback like that is something you. have to legitimately love huh. it's just the it's gonna be me imposing.
my will on your tight mindset. everybody always asks me you know who's. the hardest hitter right. and i'm like i can't stand that question. it's like you know what. my my instincts was always to bring. the punishment. to the point of attack right to the. point of attack and. you know i was gonna initiate and then. and um. you know and that was my.
that was my game plan do you think right. now you would run for 150 yards every. single game or do you think it would be. different because it feels like with the. defense now. it's a lot of mike allstats almost. they're kind of smaller and faster. but i feel like your type of running. style derek henry's had a lot of success. i mean derek henry has had a lot of. success and i'm not saying. you and him are the same type of runners. i think you're different but both very. good. how do you think your game would. translate to today's style of football. um kind of when i was in my tail end of.
my career. um gruden in like san francisco. and like derrick henry you know. tennessee. they're coming back with the bigger. barracks like rudin was like. kind of weeding out the bigger back. situation you go into more of a. the rocket scheme you know what i mean. two half packs in the game at the same. time and getting that. getting rid of the pounding you know. attack and we we've seen. if you're successful as of tennessee and. derrick rainer.
you run downhill you're gonna wear a. team that's what we did friday night you. know. when i was playing hey you know we ran. downhill. in the third and fourth quarter and you. know it's very successful. and if it doesn't work you're still. putting punishment on them right and. you know i i really feel that the. running game is is the most important. thing it sets up everything and if it. doesn't. you're pounding and wearing on those. guys until third and fourth quarter and. that's when the big plays come. i think we all just had a thought real. quickly about what a high school. football team that was coached by mike. also. look like just the thought of just.
hey we're coming right at you every. single step this is what it's going to. be every single snap we are coming. forward. that is don't don't get me wrong i i am. a i am a. i am a spread but we have our different. big packages you know i mean. i am spreading trips you know my my. my the reason i got into being a head. coach um. you know uh i just didn't like the way. other systems being ran i coached in. high school before. and um so i got into to design my own.
system and do. new things and my son was actually a. quarterback for me for four years and uh. he went to. purdue for a year and then what uh and. it's finishing up at western michigan. now but. i got into that spread in the passing. game and everything but. we do have our big taxes we're gonna. come down hill we're gonna. we're gonna you know annihilate i mean. that's that's the mindset we have i mean. i have. my my left tackle six seven my my left. card is you know. six three my center six foot i have a um.
i have a six foot guard and another six. street foot tackle so. can you guys beat western michigan right. now can your high school team take on. the team's unbelievable huh no no we're. we're not unbelievable they're all young. i mean again remember we're talking high. school but. they are getting better and they and. they are understanding. what an offensive line has to be they. have to be physical first. right come downhill establish you know. the running game. and we're teaching it don't get me wrong.
we have our weaknesses. in different aspects but again we have. that that's our teaching we we we love. to teach downhill football. that's awesome yeah i would assume i. can't assume uh connor what do you got. hey train in that uh. nfl films thing it said you you know you. would watch walter payton growing up. now that you're a coach do you try and. emulate you know gruden and dungey who. you had in tampa or you try and combine. the two almost. um you know dungeon rooting. night and day i mean you talk about.
um yeah just now let me stay there. and uh but again both are great coaches. both. at their different types of styles of. coaching um. and maybe i have both a little bit and. you're right when i'm thinking back. and everybody thought about it you know. what i mean i put my arms around the. kids you know i try to be their mentor. try to be a father figure for him and. that's kind of like benji does you know. straighten out. treats as a man holding you accountable. and respect you know be respectful.
um in a lot of different ways and then. you know gruden. he's a he's a price you know little guy. and he'll. try to you know very wordy and i get i. do. again i will get you know vocal in a way. of. of motivating but at the same time it's. like hey. i expect a lot from you it's kind of. like one of those cliches is. all right if i'm not yelling at you. or coaching you or talking in a way that. you know that we're going to be.
challenged then you know. and i have never done this but the thing. is i always say it right. you know then then there's something. wrong then you should be worried yeah. yeah if you don't talk. i heard that a lot by the way when i was. getting yelled at by everybody it was. pretty uh it was a lot of fun. hey whenever i uh whenever i stop you. that means something's wrong it's like. right well that doesn't make any sense. but yeah i'll continue to get chewed out. if you want me to i mean let's go ahead. and do it.
the um so whenever you played uh and you. you talked about preparation and. torturing your body i believe you gave. it an answer actually. i think that was actually what you said. torture your body what were your. workouts like because. in those highlights and i don't want to. i don't want i i assume this video is. going to get a lot more views after. today because of how much we've been. hyping up and i want to let you know. it'll be worth the watch yeah the your. highlight the nfl films package that. they put together. unbelievable to watch but your. legs. were i mean just what was your workouts.
like you just killed yourself huh. all year you were just hey i'm gonna go. ahead and torture every muscle in my. body. i had unique workouts um when i was. growing up. you know i just i ran a lot of hills i. ran a lot of stairs. um did did numerous things. when i was in high school i pulled tires. in my backyard. you know when i when i was in high.
school i. pushed my buddy station wagon. and we pushed it you know in the corn. fields where we grew up right on the. outside of town. from telephone telephone pole there 100. yards we would push them. crank on acv she leads up. and uh and push it and. you know put in neutral a huge stair i'd. push i had to stare he'd push and he'd. just take this thing all the way down. for i don't know how how far but it was.
just. and then i brought that to uh college. um where i'll be right about maybe not. but. you know pushed my jeep in the parking. lot you know where. the band practice was marked off 100. yards you know just you know creative. stuff like that that i thought it was. important. i mean um to do it you know in the. weight room all the time. uh just i've always been just that. overachiever hard worker trying to get. her done. you know from up north you know get a. done type of guy.
and uh you know just working hard and. had heart and just wanted to want to. play at the high level and when i got to. that that highest level. after i was drafted i just didn't want. to be there i wanted to be the best and. i wanted i wanted to help my team in. every fashion possible. and uh you know i mean just stuff like. that you know and. had great but again had great people. around me great coaches. great players you know and and again um. you know great people that that helped. me get to where.
i needed to get to so you were first one. in last one out coach's son. high motor um crafty sneaky athletic. uh lunch panel type of guy hard hat. yeah yeah right you know what i mean. i didn't have all this still i i had to. create. that skill you know i mean i had to make. sure my craft. you know i again bring my lunch bill to. work every day. all right we figured out get it done.
you are the best dude on earth man uh. uh the boys here and i we're so. incredibly excited to chat with you man. we can't thank you enough for taking. time hope the boy's gonna get it. it's a pleasure it's a pleasure anytime. let me know. i'd love to be on again i'm gonna take. you up on that offer i hope you know. that. no seriously let me know brother i. appreciate you guys thank you. a guy you will hear from again i assume. relatively soon one of the greatest. humans ever exists. the a train mike also thank you.
[Applause]. good luck happy thanksgiving man right. hey happy thanksgiving to you man the. raven steelers got cancelled so. i mean if maybe thanksgiving gets. canceled too. seems like it anyway right. [Laughter]. hey train you ain't never lie pal all. right thank you mike hi brother. all right see you coach so we got the. adrian on again it sounds sounds like. the net the head coach the national.
championship high school team in florida. oh they're national championships. on the other side he said oh my god. hey i mean could that have gone any. other. that one exactly how we thought he's. exactly who i expected he's pushing. jeeps in the in the things cornfield. station wagons telephone boat and. telephone pole. i mean he's the man that's that's we. talked what did you talk about last week.
like people like oh if i just. didn't have that knee injury i'd be in. the pros yeah were you pushing cars down. yeah were you ike taylor's kid is what. runs a mile every single morning and. does 100 push-ups before he even eats. breakfast for. before his high school it's like yeah i. understand a coach probably screwed you. okay i understand. but were you potentially putting. yourself in the greatest position to. potentially succeed not get screwed that. is the question that should be asked. and i'd assume you have but others i'm. talking about not just you others. yeah i mean michael's what a god i'm so.
happy we had that conversation with him. which is the football guy look up the. nfl films thing if you have time today. you should by the way actually tomorrow. raven steelers game is canceled yeah we. got to replace them. we got a replacement for the raven. steelers go ahead and go to i don't know. what the title is what did we watch what. was the name of that thing nick. uh i don't know exactly it was an nfl. throwback though and just type in nfl. throwback mike allstar. it was like 20 minutes long it felt like. and and then that leads obviously into. the way youtube does it's like all right. here we go now you're in a wormhole of. mike alston and. we were stu we were all the way and ride.
we were playing. yeah we were we were kind of like uh. we're like the jamaican bobsled team. whenever we were figuring out how to go. down a goddamn hill on that wheelie one. that didn't have the brakes and they end. up. that's what we were going down the. wormhole like oh my god he did what i. can. some of the he did it was. unbelievable he looked owen schmidt. at west virginia after watching the mike. alstott um when i was watching mike. allstar highlights. i saw a lot of owen schmidt there and i. was like uh i was like first of all. super pumped that. i got a chance to relive some mike.
allstar highlights. and then also while doing that i felt. like i was watching samoan schmidt. highlights as well. that those the big bruiser just. lunch pale guys yeah we're like look we. were the ryan fitzpatricks but at full. back. you know i mean like the guys who will. run their face into a fan to win a. football game. does not matter they will do it though. there's not a lot of those anymore and. mostly because science. has been telling everybody you should. not do that but.
mike alstad's about to lead a national. championship high school he was awesome. to watch man. scared of nothing for good reason by the. way for good reason could you imagine. being that pop warner coach kicking out. kids hands on a three points. with his yeti yeah yeah so he said he. was a launcher of the yeti so he's going. to be. shaking his head he's got his foot up on. the yeti. okay just hanging out probably. sunglasses on and he's watching these. three-point stance he's got his beard. cracks it open he's drinking it. he kicks the first person's hand you see. his hand excuse me.
does it again and again all right all. right. get the away from my child i i. didn't even think about that by the way. and i assume that's why a lot of these. nfl guys are getting into coaching yeah. because it does feel like the more and. more people we talk to the more and more. high school coaches are coming from the. nfl which by the way good for the game. great for the game. great for the game for high school kids. to have nfl coaches because they've been. there with the recruiting process too so. you know if you get screwed or not. uh the business side of it now granted. the social media aspect of it is. uh something that maybe the next. generation of nfl guys that go back and.
coach high school football. but i like that a lot of nfl guys are. going back and doing that it's good for. the game great for the game. now they're not gonna get paid and i. would assume a lot of those guys at some. point are gonna realize that and be like. okay we gotta do something to get paid. here at some point. but it is great for the game the nfl had. a big high school football initiative i. think. a couple years ago really yeah they. pushed something i forget they used to. always show the uh like highlights on. sunday night games like they would go on. location to like a high school football. game every week i remember them doing. that on nbc. and i think there was like a high school.
national football coach of the week that. was in that. there was like a big high school. football coach initiative i know with. the colts. uh they would bring in all the high. school coaches in the state uh a couple. practices a year or something like that. it was always a big thing i like the nfl. trying to dive into like. high school football because that's. where you can teach a lot of habits by. the way and i would assume. the nfl has seen some things coming uh. that has been happening they're like uh. we got to re-teach some stuff here yeah. potential offensive line play i would. assume fig physical football right there. mike alstott whenever you're playing a. mike all-star coach football team.
hey you're in for a long day. for a long day let's get to a break then. we'll get some phone calls. man that was awesome that was really. cool legend great conversation. he's he's calling us from what his. dungeon too at the high school. oh yeah coming off the practice field. yeah sorry about the voice i just got. done letting my three technique know. that daddy ain't gonna. cut it you think he puts his pants on. just. goes right like vrable him and frable by. the way. okay so if he gets the nfl yeah then we.
will potentially have a further. conversation about who wins in the head. coaching fighting thing and you're going. to kill the team. until then there ain't nothing to talk. about. okay but high school coaches want to get. it i'll start a train. eighth grade. look at his highlight he was a freak. athlete yeah he really was. his first touchdown he ran through like. three guys and extended for one. he did one where he like army crawled he. was like this far off the ground.
and like scooted and rare it was insane. the super bowl one he ran. through two dudes but now that we know. that he's pushing cars which is very low. yeah that whole that makes sense that. makes sense. he's been preparing for the one-armed. save. just by pushing all these goddamn cars. all over the place corn fields banned. parking lots. yep don't matter any car can get it with. it. he was awesome dude that was better than. i could have ever expected. i was rattling off all the white cliches. by the way yeah yeah and he was not. happy about him until.
lunch. i've heard that a lot all right let's. get to a break. oh some phone calls on this thankful. wednesday. november 25th we'll talk about more. stuff happening. nick saban has covet now. interesting thing about this cove we're. going to have to do some research here. and i'm no doctor obviously and. i'm sure others have this stat i guess. it's true that if you. beat covent in 12 hours you don't get. the antibodies oh.
too quick because saban earlier in the. year had coveted. then he passed three straight tests the. next day he defeated it very quickly. 12 hours save and beat it and none of us. even blinked by the way we were like. yeah that's nick saban dude. that's gonna happen turns out whenever. you beat toby that fast your body can't. build up the antibodies t's and p's. legitimately. just like they were last time with nick. saban legend in the college football. world he's out for the iron bowl this. weekend. he said he has minimum symptoms but they. are keeping himself quarantined. uh so he's out this weekend and i i.
guess that legitimizes the false. positive that happened. a few weeks ago unless the antibodies. sing is. trying to take what it is. we're back on the other side with some. phone calls this is the pat mcafee show. wednesday november 25th.
well hello sensual piano keys. you sound incredibly inspirational and. motivational. big announcement coming from our company. you know throughout my entire life i've. made decisions that people have said oh. that is stupid you've read about them. you heard about them when i was in high. school i went to an underground poker. game. one fourteen hundred bucks flew myself. down to miami won a kicking contest. and got a scholarship to west virginia. the next day i turned my back on soccer. that day everybody said you're an. idiot why are you doing that you have.
more schools looking at you for soccer. than you do for football what are you. thinking fast forward eight years with. the indianapolis coats and i was on top. of the world. top of the mountain how's the view not. too shabby. when i was at the top of my game i. decided you know what i'm gonna pursue. some other stuff. my friends and i are gonna go to work on. the internet we're going to try to chase. fulfillment as opposed to just a. paycheck and there are some interesting. responses. from people of power in the sporting. world make them tear the uniform off of.
you. look somebody needs to stage an. intervention people who know this guy. get to him now make him put his helmet. back on. and get to camp oh no there's no. intervention wilbon no no. no here we are three years after that. date it's a celebration. cut the music let's hand out. some bags to the boys. for the boys.

so mike wilbon they didn't hold my. jersey on me they didn't hold my helmet. on me. we didn't have an intervention what we. have is a celebration because when you. bet on yourself. sometimes you hit for big and for us the. only place we'll bet for the next couple. years. in an exclusive deal fanduel. backed the brinks truck up to our office. and we have never been more thankful. more excited and more together. as we promote the greatest sports book. on planet earth.

in. uh louisville a lot of steelers fans in. louisville. uh yeah actually a lot of steelers fans. of louisville since we don't have a team. it's uh only the steelers were on tv. back in the day because they were doing. good tv. yeah bingo world's team but the. interesting thing about what andrew said. with the that they're pulling. digg said something a little bit earlier. about that because diggs is a die-hard. steelers fan. and the raven steelers rivalry is one. that is real they play. great games america needed them to play. tomorrow night now seven players have. tested positive for.
uh covid and i believe some staff. members as well. so the game has been moved from tomorrow. to sunday afternoon. tomorrow's games will remain at the same. time slot noon and 4 30 or whatever. so tomorrow night there will be no. football because of covet. okay on thanksgiving this covet thing. has gone too far god damn. but diggs went on a rant about how mad. he was. about the ravens particular and he had. no disregard he.
he literally just was saying things that. were so. out of a complete overreaction out of. anger you know people have done a lot. worse in the current state that he was. in like murder for instance if you watch. dateline. there's a lot of passionate things a lot. of passionate words came out of digs. and there is one particular fan of ours. a couple. that is not happy about it okay what are. they done this is from. tommy and brittany henniger okay the. hennigers at. hennigar tommy though so britney's name. did not make it into the amount of. characters there. all right diggs parentheses.
that is interesting i assume it was. potentially tommy's first and then she. was like well i would like to be on. there too. so he just added and brittany and then. he said like babe twitter has i can't. can't do it anyways what he did say. though. and it seems like it's coming from both. of them but who knows diggs parenthesis. steelers dude parenthesis being a. hardcore ravens fan. the disrespect you showed made you lose. followers. wow he was talking about me by the. way yeah he's talking about me losing.
followers he tweeted this to me oh. we've watched this show for over a year. every day but not now. because of the eminent disrespect from. him. towards the fans just don't set well. exclamation exclamation point. exclamation point exclamation point. exclamation not impressed. exclamation oh my god we lost a viewer. because of you dicks as mike tom would. would say i do not care geez let's get.
to the phone call shall we. let's go to ethan in iowa what's going. on ethan how you doing bob. doing good man how are you guys not too. shabby man i mean there's really not. much to talk about aside from nick. saban has covered we hope he's okay he's. gonna miss the iron bowl. the steelers ravens game tomorrow night. has been postponed to sunday. lions texans washington football team. cowboys. all right we covered it what do you want. to talk about bob lost tommy and brady. thank you. actually the uh happy thanksgiving to. all you guys um. i will be watching the lions game uh.
kid that i went to high school with will. be playing tight end for detroit uh tj. hawkinson. he's a stud i always thought great corn. out there good people and great tight. ends. yeah oh yeah in the nation he's a the. kid's a animal so. um my questions though two things um. what are your thoughts on the college. football playoff rankings and uh. i'm a big ohio state fan so what do you. think our odds are to win out the rest. of the year and win the national. championship. interesting indiana gave him quite a huh.
living in iowa big time. ohio state yeah he knows that there's. probably only one team that's ever going. to really get a shot and he decided he's. going to take it. that's what he said smart what he said. that's what he said when he was a little. baby boy. when he was out there he said listen it. seems like those guys spend a lot more. money on winning over there. and they're going to make it happen more. i'm a big fan of them and by the way. i also don't mind pissing off my whole. family that's probably die hard. hawkeye's family right so it was an. interesting question by him obviously in. iowa. much better than i think anybody thought. they were going to be this year. potentially it turned it around a little. bit and wisconsin now can't even play.
football not even live in a big ten. championship because. they had a great start would probably. have been or ended up in the big ten. championship game. they have been great for a long time. their freshman quarterback that takes. the world by storm on opening night. which was delayed longer than any other. conference he test positive. he's out for 21 days see you later don't. touch the football for three weeks. he comes back has a bad game by the way. i get a bunch of tweets like. where's your hero now he's like well. he's locked in a cave for three. weeks. wasn't a lot of practice do anything. left and wasn't on you think his college.
apartment house. had a full gym you think it had a full. he was allowed to do anything for three. weeks of course the kid's gonna stink. after that. which is why i went on an entire rant. about how do they even care about the. student athlete. making him go live in a room all by. himself for three weeks because he. tested positive. when every other conference was figuring. out ways to get people back. five days later so kids didn't ruin. their entire season now. we know that there's no eligibility. fallout from this year so that kid could. be a freshman yet again next year. because of the 23rd season or whatever.
we just thought the big ten have made. some questionable moves this is another. one wisconsin because minnesota got. covered this weekend. covered issue we hope everybody survives. by the way in minnesota. uh but this game's been canceled now. wisconsin will not play enough games to. be eligible for the big ten championship. at the end of the season. so if you're wisconsin it'd be hard not. to tell everybody to go fornicate. themselves immediately because you kind. of got screwed over in this whole thing. but being from iowa being an uh ohio. state fan. it's very clear that he's doing a trick. because he knows they're going to go. indiana tested them.
and if you want to look at the college. football playoffs uh uh. rankings that came out last night. awesome show by the way they got alabama. number one mack jones and steve. sarkeesian that offense is awesome to. watch. and they have incredible defense which. i'll always have because saban's over. there i mean it is. alabama's alabama again and alabama has. had to sit around for the last couple. years knowing that clemson and lsu. and all these people have been it and. saban greatest college coach of all time. uh has been putting it together now. he'll be out this weekend for the iron. bowl. but i like alabama one i think they.
deserve it and mack jones was on pace to. crush. every record that joey burrow had last. year at the beginning of the season i'm. not sure he's keeping up with joey. barrow now joe burrow got real hot. uh towards the end of the season. mcdonald's gonna have to climb a lot to. do that but. he's unbelievable notre dame at two they. beat clemson uh. it was number one at the time their. their fans stormed the field because. they hadn't beaten the number one in 35. years or something like that. uh they got chastised for doing that oh. yeah they didn't care about anybody. can't do that parades around the country. cool fans storm the field.
stupid football fans stupid sports fans. can't do it. don't care if you haven't won in over. three decades so don't care that this. might be the first time your team is in. all fluff. they don't care that this this is the. first year your team might be great. and really go there number two clemson's. number three ohio state's number four. ohio state's at number four uh behind. the one loss clemson team who lost to. notre dame. uh potentially because the indiana game. that happened this past weekend now. five texas a m wild move the whole.
office is very surprised by this. they beat the number 16 florida though. so everybody assumes that that's why it. is. and their only losses to alabama correct. so at seven. cincinnati which is what we talked about. earlier in the show. at seven there's not enough room to move. for cincinnati to get up there. and i'm bummed about it i'm not happy. about it now granted could everybody. lose. and would they still potentially not put. cincinnati in there. yes that is something that very much. could happen cincinnati has a team. athletically i think that can make a.
power six. run into the real college football. playoff. just the studs that they have on that. team the maturity they have on that team. ucf had it a few years ago they didn't. get the opportunity 2020. thought there was a chance that a team. like cincinnati or like ucf could go on. a run because of. games being postponed wisconsin's not. even playing enough games to potentially. get there. ohio state almost had to run in with. another team heaven i mean there's a lot. of things that could happen there. but it turns out with this first ranking. it looks like it's probably not possible. for them. in eight northwestern northwestern and.
ohio state will play at. some point so ohio state will have to. prove themselves yet again to another. top ten ranked opponent. would northwestern be able to hit on the. deep balls that indiana was hitting on. would northwestern be able to do what. they did to justin fields forcing him to. throw three interceptions. i'm not sure it feels like those top. four are probably locked in for the long. run yeah cause if you look at cincinnati. alabama and florida are going to play in. the sec championships so. if florida wins alabama is a one loss. team in florida is a one loss team then. they're both still above. cincinnati probably and then you had.
notre dame and clemson who they're going. to play again same situation there. ohio state and northwestern if. northwestern beats ohio state. northwestern's going to probably jump. cincinnati like cincinnati's in a in a. bad spot they got no shots yeah they put. them in a great ranking at seven and say. hey like. hey we appreciate what you did but. there's no chance of you climbing up in. hey and by the way we've already come. out and said it. we're not adding teams at a playoff quit. asking quit. they got it we're not adding any good. quit asking and if one of the teams. can't make the game. we ain't postponing they lose.
quit asking they've already come out and. said that basically it's like. hey well well why don't we think about. this a little bit. why don't we make this an eight team. playoff it's 20 20. if the teams are available to do it. let's do it why not is it because of. health and safety. okay well then why'd you play the season. at all you know there's a lot of. let them let the boys play. has a team by the way this year. athletically now granted i don't think. they'll be able to win the whole thing. but i don't think it'll be like a boat. race you know what i mean like i think. it'll be.
i think they could potentially even. steal a win in the semis potentially i. mean i mean there is. i think athletically they have a team. that i'm not sure the college football. playoff selection committee looks at. like. okay let's look at the team who have. they played well they're in a goddamn. american conference so who have they. played they played the american. conference that's conference they're in. is that their fault is that luke. fickle's fault because he's a better. recruiter than a lot of other people and. he's able to build up a team that's in. the american conference be goddamn good. isn't this what this is all about the. student human athletes it shouldn't. matter where you come from. if you're the best squad you should get. an opportunity that's what the ucf fans.
are saying years ago. and now i bet you cincinnati and the byu. fans are saying the same damn thing. why not give the storm and mormons a. shot over there now you got. disputing reports about why byu and. washington didn't happen. washington's saying well byu just didn't. want to play and byu's like. washington asked for like 45 things so. let's go ahead and. we're not oh oh i'm sorry we're supposed. to bend over backwards just to play. washington this weekend. we're the undefeated squad okay. everybody take it easy but then. washington came out and said they were. scared to pass because of college. football rankings it's just.
there's a lot of interesting that. goes on college football and last night. the rankings. uh said a lot and it also told. cincinnati don't matter how good you are. pal. keep it moving and cincinnati has beaten. teams by like 40 points if you remember. i think two weeks ago they played uh ecu. and the head coach on the other team was. mad because cincinnati's running up the. score. they have to if they want a chance at. the college football playoff and they're. not even getting one if there was ever a. time to make it eight teams let's go. this year. come on hey steelers ravens got.
cancelled on thanksgiving. make the college football playoff 18th. danny. this is probably karma for cincinnati oh. what's that. it's karma for cincinnati they said just. scored on. oh instead of saturday smart analytical. football they did say that if they had. six more points they would have been. moved up to five. yeah it would have changed a lot want to. change a lot. differently you got some degenerates in. that college football playoff community. oh they want to be up there huh. uh you know what i want i want them to. cover which they instead they.
take a knee when i'm the one okay what. are you smarter than nfl teams now all. of a sudden. i want you in our goddamn playoff. costing a lot of people money. let's get some phone calls hey great. question by him led to a conversation. we're supposed to have. see that that's the show you know what i. mean something to think about if you're. calling it. what's that you know something happened. to my. how do they break i don't know i feel. like one ear is not working maybe really. i'm listening in stereo right now. you ever hear that song she's the one i.
would not wanna. she's the one i wanna love. one of the best lines in there is her. her vision is in stereo. the all-star game that was supposed to. be in indy yeah 2024. oh oh nice you think we'll have. dessert you think we'll be a lot of our. houses by 2024. no that's a real question you know if. they're already postponing the 2021. nba all-star game which is what all-star.
break is summer everywhere no february. oh so it's coming up pretty quickly yeah. usually you got to do it then yeah. that one about the old combine then. right yeah and one month later. is the supposed to be the bubble march. madness tournament indiana yes. well listen it looks like let's. let's just act like everything's still. gonna happen okay happy thanksgiving. it's fine it's fine. it's fine we need it college basketball. starts today we're good. yeah there's 100 and some games we're. damn near halfway there. yeah we are aren't we mm-hmm and now.
these games matter by the way. nope i will get to the bubble boys. get to the bowl get to the bubble boys. louisville kentucky on christmas has a. little extra juice after that uh. calipari coach mack a little feud on. twitter and by the way i thought about. coach mack while i was talking about the. byu washington situation. where washington was making a bunch of. allegedly now it depends on who you. believe pete. tommel pete the mail. that sounds cooler though to that pete. pamela.
timothy thatcher pete tamil i don't know. or bruce feldman depending on which. which source you want to listen to one's. from byu one's from. washington washington people are saying. byu basically just said no we don't want. to play because college football. ranking's coming out is what the one. source said. and then the other people byu folks were. like uh there was like 14. 15 maybe 75 asks for this game to happen. it's like. we're not betting over backwards which. was what coach mack basically did of. louisville. to the kentucky wildcats and john. calpari yep that's a great video by the.
way. i'm not a big college basketball fan but. anytime you get a head coach cutting a. promo against another head coach. especially within the state of kentucky. love it love everything about it. he came in and took some swings i wonder. what take that was by the way it was him. and his office just so we can set the. scene for those that haven't seen the. video and maybe we can try to pull it up. it's him sitting in his office with an. iphone. set up on like maybe a socialite thing. yeah light not on. okay him in his office chair looking at. the camera cutting a promo looking away. going back in going away coming back in.
ending it with a punch line i loved it i. loved everything that he did. it was glorious and you know kentucky. has run the state there for a while. oh yeah well and the next day the game. got scheduled so the. promo worked that's awesome let's go to. dylan in indiana what's going on dylan. good how's it going boys i hope everyone. has a good holiday weekend and safe. travels if you're going back home. hey you too man don't travel with too. many people though you know that's true. yeah. you'll be careful i uh i originally had.
a question for my call stuff but i. didn't get the chance to get on so. i don't know who made you think that was. gonna happen did may tell you that you. had a question for mike allstar let's go. ahead and hammer it. no no i had called with an original. question to begin with. and then i messaged him to see if he. could change the subject line to see if. he could try to get me on with it oh you. so you thought my first ever. jessica yeah you're one of your heroes. okay i think mike alstott's one of. everybody's here. just so i have this you thought the. first time i was going to talk to mike. allstar in my entire life i was going to. be like you know what let's open. this thing up to some phone calls.
maybe no i can't do it yeah but who. knows what's coming through i understand. that. and but for mike ost there's no reason. for him to have to sit there now granted. geo is it was geo is your name dylan. dylan oh yeah dylan anyways there's no. way. where are you at right now by the way uh. south bend digs in second home town. dick's coming up there you digs may or. pete and everybody go up there.
dylan i can't assume that you're just. going to have a great question what if. you all over yourself in front of. mike also. that'd be me putting a lot of pressure. on you on the phone caller. not to it up for us for for mike. allstar forever there's no way i could. do that dylan you have to understand. that. i get it but i had i tried to shoot my. shot yeah which i can respect what was. your question from mike austin how would. you have delivered it let's act like. ty's michael stott. what do you got i wanted i want to know. what his days were like at purdue and if. he had any good stories whether it was. on the field or. you know any good parties or anything.
because i party down there and it's. always a good time. okay not a terrible question mike's i. mean i i don't know if mike would have. opened up there. from his high school coach's office that. he was in there right. you know there's one time i went down to. uh what's it called harry's ice cream. store or something like that. and had that 50 to 60 shots i was. blacked out ran through the plate glass. dylan that would have been a good. question though what i'm saying is there. was a chance that your question would. have been a bad question. and we can't have that be our first. interaction with mike alstott so what do.
you want to talk about now dylan. my question was originally with covet. going on are you guys still planning on. doing the super bowl super yacht. for the uh yeah i mean dylan you can. call in any time by the way man great. questions very thoughtful and good. delivery the um. the super bowl super yacht was created. with. covid in mind oh yeah because radio row. which is not a thing you can't do it no. radio row which is dead. fortunately a very very electric.
atmosphere down there at super bowl by. the way it is. it is i mean it's all a joke just a. massive. joke and everything like that but it is. awesome it is a spectacle. we got a chance to be a part of it a. couple times shout out jeezy. shout out plenty of other people i mean. it is it is a good time okay. oh super spreader central bromide had. malaria last year yeah so that's. exactly where it actually may have been. covered but the radio road is not. happening this year. so i'm wondering if anybody's traveling. down there to do whoa whoa.
jim ron paul he covered very early. february. that would make sense yeah he's probably. going to hey congrats around man. i wonder if he's going to test for the. antibodies yet but i do. absolutely or the cure. legend dude absolute legend anyways the. um. there's there's probably not people. traveling down the super bowl to do. interviews no. so we would hope that what we're hoping. is on radio we'd be able to entice. people like. uh you know those those people in the. new york city streets that have like. stand-up comedy pamphlets.
or in vegas they have those cards you. know we're hoping people will be. we'd be able to do that be like hey you. won't go on a yacht maybe hit some golf. balls and. have a conversation you know that's what. we're hoping but it doesn't feel like. anybody's probably getting down there. so probably not dylan if i had to guess. i have been getting asked though if. we're going down there by people that. have to make it happen. mm-hmm and i think we just talked about. probably not going huh there's no reason. how do you even. what are you gonna do nothing. i mean we got our set up here which is. going to be the exact same thing that. people are doing there.
yeah we will be down by the way we are. getting uh studio. next week down in florida for fight week. down in orlando. i would not be on nxt tonight by the way. tonight for thanksgiving pete dunn's. going to beat the hell out of some on. the speed today remember in a ladder. match should be awesome to watch. it's for the advantage in war games so. we will get an extra person before they. will. so we'll be able to double down on. whatever.
he done's about to beat the hell out of. somebody and i'll be watching from the. comforts of my home saying hey pete dunn. go kick that dude's ass brother come on. have a good night on nxt i won't be. there cheers we're back on the other. side. [Music]. i was told by dale curry scottie pippen. struggles on the golf course right. right i was told at that thing that i'm. going against scottie pippen. the next day match play heads up 101. scotty pippen. so we decide like okay i have a couple.
drinks at the casino a little bit longer. than we should. representing the nfl out of the. shoeless golf club of america pat mcafee. his opponent representing the nba. scotty pippen you know. this guy's got six rings he's a. hall of famer but today he's gonna play. against me. and then i start seeing scotty hit some. shots that are just like starting to. come together and i'm like wait a.
minute i think i was like. we were. going in the back nine i think i was. down one like we were really like we. were battling but i started making putts. and scottie pippen went ahead and got. real hot i mean. real hot i was down three with. seven left. and i looked right in the camera and i. go straight down. three like seven holes left scotty pip. is about to get this work. scottie pippen from 190 yards out just.
dunks it. boom bang and then walks up to. the green. gets the ball camera's on him and he. goes pippin ain't easy. all right down four with six left after. scotty pepin just chips him from. 400 yards out. all right i was demoralized. pippin ain't. easy by the way best he's ever performed. at golf. because i'm around better teammate than.
jordan yep. oh yeah i told dell i was like what the. you lie to me he was like well. i saw it yesterday he was not great and. greg anthony told me and i was like dale. he buried me doe curry he. bury me zayn. yes baby it's time to celebrate talking. about the shocking beer after he had. beat me obviously. i like teach him how to do it yeah put a. hole in there it might spread a little. yeah bit you're going to go here and. then you're going to open and flip.

[Music].
[Music].
the pat mcafee show there will be no. rules for our guests for. us for the things we can talk about. speaking his mind. i've never had a problem expressing my. opinions or my thoughts or. anything like that while being relatable. i haven't had that. manufactured fake ass celebrity that a. lot of people have whenever they go on. those big networks i've had a chance to.
really build my crew build my following. build my audience. and ridiculous what am i supposed to do. so i'm supposed to look at something. that i can definitely. is that afford and say to do the pat. mcafee show. starts in three three two. one good afternoon beautiful people. welcome back to the pat mcafee show. serious xm channel youtube mad dog. sports radio hour three with aj hawk. begins right. now college national champion super bowl.
champion aj hawk what's going on. aj we're about to be joined by a guy. okay who better have some answers. because there's some mad steelers fans. in the world right now uh we got a. caller from. israel named michelle who's very pissed. about this game. and we'll listen to him and we'll talk. to him in a little bit diggs has. said very terrible things about the. bullets more ravens already on this show. uh tom palisaro nfl network and insider. and also. a special thanksgiving edition of nfl.
game day morning airs thursday. at 10 a.m eastern time on nfl network. and let's assume. that the nfl network will also put. together a hell of a show for the night. because steelers ravens has been. canceled joining us now tom pelisaro. [Applause]. let's get right into it okay a lot of. steelers fans are going to tell you. you should not be smiling right now okay. tom there are people. that thought there we go all right thank. you there we go thank you thank you for. uh what you know kind of put the serious. face on there are people that are saying.
that they didn't think 2020 could do. anything worse. taking the steelers ravens off of. thanksgiving night. whenever i think america needed this and. that's gonna sound dramatic okay. america needed steelers ravens on. thanksgiving night i think maybe. to comb a lot of storms that are. potentially happening in small. gatherings around the country not big. gatherings. what are you hearing about this and how. come the niners had like 10 people out. in the game still went on. why is it different for this particular. game is it because of the importance in. the afc north.
it's not about the importance in the afc. nor it comes down to a bunch of. different factors. one of which being there's not been a. game postponed since week five. okay so it's been a long time ever since. they instituted their high risk. close contact protocols they found ways. to isolate people to take away in some. cases like with that 49ers game you had. a guy kendrick foreign who tested. positive and then tested negative to. test the positive test negative but he. was out. and he had several close contacts. including brandon nyuk trent williams. you couldn't play for that game but. you're talking about. in that case one positive test and then.
several close contacts. that's happened to other teams the. packers in that same game had uh jamal. williams was ruled a close contact for. that game among others. uh because they were close to aj dylan. so this is not the first time that. somebody would be down. some players it really has to do with. this is the first time that you've had. and i want to be careful to not use the. word outbreak here. because the nfl is doing its genomic. sequencing and all these different. things. interviews to figure out whether or not. the virus is actually spreading. within the ravens or whether in some. cases it's just a lot of different.
people. you know a lot of virus from different. places and bringing it in separately but. this is the first time that you've had. a bunch of infections with one team that. are still. ongoing up close until kickoff that's. kind of what played out with the titans. weeks ago when you had 20 plus cases. with them between players and staff at. this point you've got at least. five players and five staff members who. are confirmed positive there's. additional tests or additional positives. with some staff members there. they're trying to get a handle on the.
totality of the situation it's not a. competitive. decision it's really about this is one. of those rare cases where because the. number of positive tests and how close. it's happening to kick. off they felt like the best thing to do. was push the game back three days. i thought it was seven it's not seven. players it's only five players. seven players are going to be on the. reserve covid 19 list but only five that. we know of are confirmed positive. because of course you can also land on. that list. because close contact you also in. certain cases can land on that list. because you had a positive that has not.
yet been confirmed as a positive really. what the nfl wants to do is make sure. are you gonna have three more guys test. positive tomorrow i mean they're getting. tested. every day so how far is it spreading how. is it spreading. is it spreading within the club because. i mean let's face it in the united. states you have massive amounts of. infections everywhere including hot. spots. in some nfl cities so naturally you're. gonna have more guys get exposed you're. gonna have a rise in infections which is. exactly what's happened. in the nfl just because the team has. multiple positive cases doesn't mean. player x gave it to player y maybe they.
both got it from their wives or their. kids or. you know the grocery store whatever and. brought it in that's all the stuff they. got to figure out. tom i know the whole league is in like. this intensive protocol right now is. there. a mega intensive protocol is there. another step up we could get to yeah. come on we lock this thing don. yeah we're doing this this is actively. happening they said a memo again like. two nights ago uh it's not an. intensive protocol but now you have a. mask mandate. on the sideline if you are not in the. game. preparing to substitute into the game or.
at least wearing a helmet. you have to have a mascot and teams have. been told you are responsible for. enforcing this. if players break the rules they can be. displayed if the team is not enforced. the team can be disciplined so this is. the next level here. what the what the nfl has really found. when i say the nfl i'm not talking about. roger goodell i mean. the medical experts dr alan sills the. team of epidemiologists who have been. advising. what they have found is that really your. risk is not. between the teams they've not found any. evidence that you know if you're. the you know your defensive tackle test.
positive that the offensive guard is. going against him is going to test. positive. no it's when guys are standing together. on the sideline. that you might be giving it to each. other so they're trying to eliminate. that as best they can. have mass mandated on the sidelines. they're already mandated in the locker. room they're now shortening to the. post-game interactions which. really weren't supposed to be happening. to begin with and there's already been a. mask mandate for those. most guys weren't following it so now. they're enhancing that saying it has to. be brief you need to get yourself off. the field. this is a moving target i mean there's.
been i don't know how many updates to. these protocols they're going to keep. happening. that's why tom didn't go say what's up. yeah because the protocol was lifted. everybody wants to make drama out of it. because the buccaneer is lost and he had. a bad night or whatever no it's because. he's trying. he knows that it takes all of us tom. brady knows that more than anybody. um let's whenever the nfl did its entire. review of the titans. thing that happened you know they they. ended up. fining the raiders like 10x what they. find the titans and the titans had like. 22 players that got it.
and they said that they believed that no. protocols were broken. by the titans or whatever and that's. with inside the building things and. uh cameras and you know the mask force. that's out there with their pen and. paper. like their hall monitors out there and. everything in the mass everywhere and. they don't celebrate or talk to people. protocols. the titans did none of that they had 22. people so at this point. because we just had the steelers ravens. which is our raven steelers thursday or. thanksgiving night prime time game. postponed to sunday.
we can probably assume right that there. is going to at least be another game. that ends up getting postponed and not. going to be able to move and we're going. to have that week 18. and we're going to have this 16 game. play our 16 team playoff. is that kind of the assumption around. the nfl at this point. if i've learned one thing pat this. season it's assume nothing we really. don't know from week to week what's. gonna happen but i think that if you. were. you know just kind of playing the odds. so to speak here you would. say that eventually you might end up in. a situation just because again. infections are rising all over the. country. where they would have to utilize week 18.
and by the way this is exactly why they. haven't utilized it. if they had pulled the trigger in like. week seven or whatever the raiders had. that thing where all the offensive. lineman couldn't. uh practice all week then all of a. sudden you're out of options that was it. that was the nuclear option now you have. nowhere left to go what they wanted to. do was. maintain that week 18 keep it open until. you got to a point where you had to use. it. as the playoff picture begins to. crystallize here you might have games. in week 15 or week 16 that they simply. go you know what it doesn't make sense.
right now to be pushing people back from. a sunday to a tuesday. now you got short weeks the end of the. year now let's utilize. week 18 because the whole thing that the. competition committee and the owners. approved. regarding the potential expansion of the. playoff field was tied to. all meaningful games being played if all. meaningful games. cannot be played then they would. expanded the playoff field to 16. uh at this point that's not happened. their plan is still to play 256 games. over either 17. or 18 weeks they'll utilize week 18 if.
they have to make up some games. at the end we're still pretty early to. start just going we're going to take. this steelers ravens game. and throw that into january got it got. it. so tom pat first off you pointed to. yourself yeah. then you pointed to the hawks i pointed. to the hawkins. if it was your turn like i didn't want. to you know what i mean. tom gave a great answer there and i had. no follow-ups. pretty amazing i preached awareness and. i had zero right there so that is 100 my.
mistake well we can make it even worse. if we want to you you absolutely oh look. at you a.j. [Applause]. hey they always i know the radio. listeners love this it always plays. when we do these these uh shenanigans on.
video but tom first off. i noticed pictures behind you pictures. behind you you have uh russell wilson. yourself. above the the picture of you and your. family not sure how your wife and kids. feel about that. uh did what what went into that decision. i guess to give prime position to russ. nothing up here i i got an email this. morning from someone asking me like what. these orbs. are over here yeah and my answer just is. like i got no effing idea i don't know. they built this thing they stuck a bunch. of stuff they told me it's mid-century. modern. i i had no voice in the matter in terms.
of. the pictures it's i don't know i guess. that's a really good point it's never. come up. now it will thank you the only thing up. here that i own have you ever seen in. the background is the starting lineup. guys like have you ever seen. brian bosworth in the background oh. the 90 era boss starting lineup guy. that's mine. everything else i got i got no say in it. so it was nfl network just sent in like. a. contractor and they're like hey you. can't be in your house obviously because. you've got to self-quarantine away from. the contractor that's coming into your. house and we'll put a mask on them.
they'll build you a backdrop because we. are sick of looking at your basement is. that what they said to you. this was pre-coveted times this was like. two or three years ago they came in like. this entire wall they just built and. then they were like i was like hey. here's some stuff that i like could you. put this up there like. yeah no we got we got triangles for you. we got a lot of triangles. i want to get into your set here uh tom. let's talk about uh the vrebel hardball. situation. a little bit here because obviously. harbaugh's team now. after that whole the loss of titans we. think they want the jimmy's famous.
seafood. had a good time ate the greatest crab. cakes of all time they probably. you know dosed it out a little bit is. are the baltimore ravens. is harbaugh losing the ravens hey here's. a super cliche. catchy question that normally athletes. are asked and if they give an answer. that isn't completely on the line. they're like. losing in your head as a media person do. you think that there is a little bit of. distrust. in the baltimore ravens organization. hadn't had a breakout right until now. you got lamar jackson saying they're. becoming predictable uh there's.
no players went out there to fight for. harbaugh whenever the other team was. there. is there big distrust in baltimore right. now from what you're hearing. i have not been told that by anyone that. there's an issue in terms of john. harbaugh with the ravens players. i do believe that naturally you've. reached the point now where based upon. the type of offense that greg roman was. running with lamar jackson when he won. the mvp. everybody in the league was waiting for. okay when teams come up with an. answer for that diverse running game and. all the option side stuff and.
the read stuff that they do what's the. next level. how do you take a step forward here it's. the same thing that greg roman ran into. circa 2014. with the 49ers where it was all right. colin kaepernick has done a lot of. phenomenal things. what's the next level well over time in. san francisco they tried to have. kaepernick playing. more from the pocket the development was. not necessarily to the point where. that worked out as well as they would. have liked to uh and then obviously a. lot of different things happen with. kaepernick so i'm not comparing the two. situations but the point is when you're.
running that style of offense. teams eventually are going to find. answers for it that's that's the nature. of the nfl when anybody's doing. something new. from year to year week to week people. are going to come up with different. answers for it and you've got to have a. counter punch and right now the ravens. it seems they're just trying to. figure out what exactly is their. counterpunch you know they've had some. injuries a running back which has not. helped him. uh mark ingram missed some time jk. dobbins i think he saw him last week. began to break out now both those guys. are on the covet list so if this game. takes place on sunday. they're still not going to be out there.
it's going to be uh gus edwards they. haven't found a way to get the ball to. hollywood brown. i mean these are these are kind of just. fundamental things that they've got to. come up with i think that it's. you know again i have not been told by. anyone that john harbaugh is losing that. team or. losing the locker room it just seems. that they become a little bit stagnant. uh from an offensive perspective and. then defensively too there's an. evolution that takes place you trade for. yanique in gaque hoping he can be a. playmaker for you. they moved on from earl thomas in. training camp uh they've you know. they've had some. new parts there and they're just they're. not you know functioning as high of a.
level all around. as they were a year ago huh hey what. about the bengals what are you hearing. from them i know there's some reports. saying that the coaching there's not. there's. they don't trust the coaches there's a. toxic uh relationship going on or. whatever have you are you hearing. anything and rappaport told us just a. couple days ago that he has heard. nothing about zach taylor potentially. being run out of town has any yeah has. anything changed since that whole thing. came up. knowing how the bengals operate and how. patient they tend to be and they're the. team that probably.
i have never fully vetted this but i. would guess statistically they. cut fewer players in other words they. keep everybody as long as possible. coaches. players they probably do that more than. anybody uh within the league. and so i think that in any other. situation when you're a two-win team a. year ago. when you're staring down the barrel of. potentially being a two-in team this. year depending how brandon allen. functions in place of joe burrell. at quarterback you would have more. speculation because. it's the bengals because they don't like. to eat money. because they have shown patience with.
coaches uh it's not. at the forefront as it otherwise might. be in terms of. culturish cultural issues there that's. not something i've heard i saw the. headline that you're talking about. uh there were some things in there. regarding uh the defensive coordinator. lou anarumo that i definitely. i have not heard at all in terms of him. not getting the buy-in from players i. mean. look what they did in free agency trying. to fix the defense they signed trey. wayne's. hurting camp hasn't played the entire. season uh you know they signed dj reader. the defensive tackle.
right away out for pretty much the. entire season they've they've had. injuries they've had other issues. in terms of that group that's what's. really harmed them on the defensive side. and then. you know offensively joe mixon's missed. like half the year now. joe burrow's now out for the season i. mean we get here talk culture all we. want but it's like. when all your good players aren't out. there it's really hard. to to win football games and by the way. they might be in one of the best. divisions in all of football right now. which doesn't make their task any. easier either um carlos dunlap sold his. house immediately after gabriel.
and he's making plays for the seahawks. right they kicked him out of town. basically three stacks three games i. would assume that there was a couple. people maybe they interviewed for a sad. article i didn't read the article i only. saw the headline as well. i would assume that they could have. found some people that would be like. yeah i'll let you know how i feel about. that place right now. and i'm not saying carlos done that. smoke i would assume carlos dunlap. wouldn't do that but if carlos dunlap. who is a. superstash i assume there's some other. people that think there's some potential. decisions being made in there that the. locker room does not respect if i had a. guest especially. with how carlos dunlap has played for. the seattle seahawks since going over.
there. i assume there's a lot of people like. yeah we had that dude on our team that. just did the thing and we weren't. playing him at all so i. there's probably anytime you lose that's. going to happen tom you know what i mean. don't you think like there's there's a. chance that some parts of the locker. room. are going to turn if there isn't success. happening at the exact time that just. comes with sucking. i think well and on top of that guys. like carlos dunlap had basically played. for one coach. ever and marvin lewis i remember talking. to players about this. last offseason when i was still allowed. to travel and covet didn't exist and. life was good. uh talking to bengals players about what.
zach taylor was doing and like there. were simple things from like the. scheduling standpoint from the structure. of practice. from everything else so they had a. degree of success for a long time. with marvin lewis they hadn't won a. playoff game but in a place like. cincinnati where they hadn't won in a. long time. they at least were getting into the. playoffs they were winning football. games then zach taylor comes in and. rightly because they hadn't won big. wanted to change a lot of things when. guys are uncomfortable with that. when their roles start to become smaller. and smaller which carlos dunlaps were. you know i i'm not surprised you have.
some level of dissent among the veterans. but. you know we have not heard that from. from joe burrow or any of the other. young players. um some of the people i know there have. not expressed anything like that. uh you know certainly the oldest trick. in the book to call the person who just. got traded or just got fired to uh find. the the negative parts of the. situation but no i mean i in my in my. mind just knowing the people i've talked. to. i haven't got a sense that the culture. is the issue it's just about they're. trying to do things differently they're. not winning. and a lot of the players that are coming. on to help them do that. are not even on the field well you know.
they don't have an indoor practice. facility either so. i would like to say that that could go. down to the gym at university of. cincinnati. which by the way university of. cincinnati should be higher in the. rankings so they can maybe make a run. that's college football playoff having. them at seven they got no shot which is. a bummer. but cincinnati bearcats are an absolute. start. of a team out there uh austin eckler. broke some news on his own twitch stream. how'd that make you feel as an insider. didn't i break that no did he break it. what did he do. i got a bunch of tweets telling me that. he broke his own news on his twitch.
stream that he might be back this. weekend. hey pretty sure i broke. that was potentially on your side for. breaking this news before austin eckler. whenever you just. you know completely mocked what you know. what you just noticed. all those people though they're gonna. kill you they turned against you there.
you know what i mean. that three seconds exactly what is that. not us by the way we won't do that no. yeah it was it was yesterday they made. the decision they're gonna return into. practice he's gonna be out there this. week. i don't know that he's gonna play in the. game uh. at this point because they may actually. give him another week here but the fact. that he's even back. after not practicing since week four. because of that hamstring injury. definitely a positive sign for a. chargers team that could use some good. news right now. um before we let you go christian. mccaffrey was in a red shirt aj and i. know that. that means you can't touch him he can.
still go through everything probably a. week out is that what you're thinking. we'll see how the week plays out the. fact that they're at least putting him. on the field is a step forward from. where he's been. coming back from that shoulder it sounds. like teddy bridgewater's got a much. better shot at playing they were both. out there in red jerseys. at the start of practice today sounds. like all goes well bridgewater. is on track for sunday faces old team. the vikings with mccaffrey. we really gotta see i mean i certainly. would not would not bet on him playing. at this point but we'll see how he's. feeling the next few days here. hey tom we appreciate the hell out of.
you buddy every time we talk to you we. feel good teddy bridgewater is always. going to have a red jersey on though. that's just something that comes with. the territory being a quarterback tom. it's the non they use that as the. injured guy jerseys there apparently. i think they were blue i think they were. blue quarterback jerseys oh really. check me on that i'll i'll check the. twit. oh because i was literally right over. your shoulder there russell wilson's. wearing a red jersey right over short. i'm like tom knows that they wear red. jerseys there's no reason. i'm aware but i believe that the. panthers wear like light blue.
quarterback jerseys i could be wrong. with that i think red is the injured. jersey for them. isn't it interesting because like for. instance in green bay the red zone is. the gold zone. okay the red zone's a gold zone red. jerseys or blue jerseys down there. i mean there's shells in some places. full pads and other places. it doesn't matter as long as you win. baby it's all that matters tom who's. going to super bowl tom. i don't make predictions can't do it. won't do it. why because you then all your connects. at the other teams would potentially. turn yeah the other the other 31 teams.
are all mad about it then. i'm out of the prediction business i was. never good at it anyway this is the same. reason that i suck at fantasy football. it's because like i'll talk to people. i'll be like really excited about like. some. round draft wide receiver that's like. week eight and the guy hasn't played and. i drafted him in like the eighth round. this is this is the problem with like. thinking you know more than you do just. just. auto draft it's the definitely the best. way to do it not a boy tom you just. on the fantasy community too i think i. mean the twitch community and the. fantasy community. i absolutely love what you're doing here. too and every picture i'm seeing here.
the uh carolina panthers quarterbacks. wear green jerseys oh okay. okay right you're right you're armstrong. right i was wrong there that's on me so. that's good news that. teddy bridgewater is out there and. christian mccaffrey we need to get teddy. to a green okay. and we need to get christian to a blue. blue. blue one black offense defense depend on. what it is one of those yeah looks like. it's tom pell. [Applause]. thank you tom tom's awesome. yeah he did on a couple of. different communities there he's good. he's gonna have a tough day tomorrow.
it's fine. it feels like it's gonna have a long day. on the internet for old times he was. right there 100 right though with the. red shirt green shirt thing like that um. aj anything you heard in there that made. you go oh wow that's interesting. i mean i guess the fact that it sounds. like whatever's going on in the bengals. locker room may not be true. yeah it's interesting because like. carlos dunlap obviously probably. i mean i don't know carlos done that. personally he's probably not coming out. and just bad mouthing people i would. assume that. you know that there's a certain trait. that people have to have that do that. but if carlos dunlap was that pissed off.
and he was selling the house i would. assume there's others like. i'm assuming it's not just carlos that. is upset that they're losing. and they're not playing or so that that. happens whenever you suck and. by the way sometimes the players are 100. right too it's just doesn't really get. listened to because things like that. happen like ah yeah. they need to play better football when. that report came out it was dunlap and. atkins and i believe. gino atkins is still there so it could. easily be him oh but also. if it's carlos dunlap and gino atkins. probably more guys let's assume that. there is a lot more guys because those. are our two.
high-end guys those are vets been around. long time carlos dunlap. still got it he had to be so pumped on. that sack to end the game the other. night oh. just i mean he wouldn't drop a sucker. sign but i'm sure he was thinking. you cincinnati go ahead and take. this let's get to a break. aj um we got questions from other sports. shows to answer on the other side. because we are a sports show. and i'm going to do this you're stupid. you're wrong what you said i'm going to. turn i don't think i'm going to turn. this. on smart i wouldn't look at me either.
way i'm going to lose that dude. i wouldn't look at me either dude i. can't wait i can't wait to see what. connor. drummed up from all these other shows. got some good ones he was. i heard him yesterday while he was i. heard him yesterday while he was uh. putting them together. we got some good ones man shout out to. undisputed by the way. used clip from yesterday yeah uh with. our conversation with aaron talking. about how. brett favre start well they didn't show. the clip of him saying that brett favre. basically. started the no look thing for him they. didn't show that they showed the clip. though.
of him giving love to matt stafford and. he talked about how aaron talked about. brett started the no-look craze and then. patrick holmes gets a lot of credit for. it he's that shade at patrick mahomes. you know classic. conversation one of the most. entertaining four minutes i've listened. to. oh yeah then i'm going back and forth i. was dying laughing. shannon sharp had some moments in there. that i was crying left. and skip by the way had a couple oh oh. is that right. it was it was awesome it was really good. and thank them for asking. us to do that right it's very very nice. of them to do that some people just take.
it huh. oh it's international i don't have to. give him credit bleacher report gave us. credit too which is very nice i mean. they picked the worst photo i've ever. taken in my time. [Laughter]. awesome of them doing that i. think it was at a carb day in. indianapolis 500. so i don't know probably four to five. bongs. deep oh yeah if i had to guess at that. point who knows where i was running to. to do what. they took that photo and put it up there. like mac if you said this and there was. no. there was no like by the way this was.
sarcasm because what i said was patrick. thank god patrick holmes brought the. note look past the nfl or whatever. it's hard whenever you read that as a. text you can't get the inference i. believe is how aaron rodgers refer. you can't get the inference that that. was a sarcastic question. and they picked a terrible photo of me. brutal but they did give credit so shut. up bleacher. the name font no no it's bigger this. time they use the whole photo yeah. terrible photo hey pat i think it's. pretty. simple in reading that in text to know.
that that's the sarcastic comment. people took you seriously they just read. that oh yeah i got some tweets from. people oh yeah. they said uh thank you thank you thank. you thank you. i mean you said it to aaron rodgers so. it's like double like if you look at. yeah of course he's messing around here. skip the only thing skip said that. um you know i found interesting about. the whole thing it was. he's like you know he's cursing up a. damn storm basically basically like he. said. uh he's been doing that blank for a long. time or whatever up there.
and he's just cursing there sitting and. then he said it is a really good. conversation because he's relaxing. you could tell that aaron you know. saying and during the. conversation he was not exactly thrilled. about now. hitting him like bullets yeah come on. come on come on. it was awesome to listen to them talk i. mean it was like our thomas. i was crying laughing while watching. that whole thing shannon. when shannon sharp gets going i mean it. is the train. it's mike it's mike allstar going down. there it's awesome.

about four minutes of. siriusxm channel 82 mad dog sports. let me tell you a little story about. these statistics troy palamalu okay. troy palamalu so. we had a fake for the pittsburgh. steelers. that was a 100 percenter we didn't even. have a cancel the goddamn play because. it was a hundred percenter. if we ever end up in this situation.
inside the seven yard line. on the left hash it is a 100 percenter. that the c gap will be wide open and we. will just part the c. to the left it'll be a touchdown 100. we're playing in pittsburgh the city i. grew up in. i grew up in pittsburgh i won the punt. passing kick national championship aj. national championship aj congrats. aj do you ever win the national. championship pump passing kick. i think i got third or fourth out of.
four. at the nationals i'm proud of you man. anyways. so we're there in that stadium okay. a lot of mcafee's in there a lot of. mcafee's in pittsburgh. i'm gonna score my first. touchdown night game sunday night. football i believe it was. right here touchdown we get into that. situation. and i'm like holy this is really. gonna happen we're like on the six on. the left hash. it's fourth and goal now field goal. team's jogging on i'm like whoa. it's about to i'm this is i gotta.
i'm ready i am ready for this to. happen. so i get out there i get down vinnie's. like happy for me vinnie's like very. excited he's like let's go like. vinnie's excited for me at this moment. i'm like here we go. so i make the call i forget what it was. so i start saying it right and. everybody's looking at me like okay. bright eyes here we go let's get after. it. offensive linemen are dead ass tired. they do not want to be in the middle of. a field goal anyway so they're just like. all right i don't give a if you die. here but this should work let's get some. points. and all of a sudden i go through my.
cadence i call it i get down. and troy palomal who's ass goes. ahead for. however long his career was at this. point i think it was like nine years. or eight years at this point not at once. has he ever gone to this side of the. field over here to the left and covered. stood right in the c gap never he lined. up exactly where he had lined in film. 100 of the time. and then as soon as i got to like the. second cadence right before set. he just bounced his little ass right. over to the c gap and i like stopped. everything i was doing and i literally. just looked at him.
and i gave him michael what the are. you doing man like why are you there. right now and then i stood up and said. we are kicking it. we don't have it we have to kick it we. are kicking this. and then i get down infinitary kicks it. and i jog off the field. and chuck pagano comes running up next. to me he's like hey good job what'd you. see i said what did i see. palamalu just went right into. the goddamn seat yet. what did i see what did i see he goes. okay. sounds good good call then and a good.
call then and then vinaity's like hey. way to go buddy i'm like way to go. are we not going to talk about how big. of a troy palamalu is. for what just happened right there. so that's i saw the angel of death. waiting for me at this in the sea gap. it's unbelievable what do you thought i. was gonna run him over. no way i'm gonna get he's probably gonna. strip me and score a touchdown the other. that's palamalu bro that ain't just some. your backyard football with your son. this is these are professional. athletes he'd probably jump. over the linemen pick me up and run me.
into the other end zone if he. wanted to. that's what he wanted the heart fitting. safety of his generation too. i mean ed reed great cover of safety. i don't know that you would have feared. him but. i would have feared ed reed yeah if i. saw ed reed in that c. gap absolutely ed reed boy the best. safety you ever seen boy i ain't doing. to ed reed no no ed reed would have. made the tackle i'm saying that palamala. would have shaved years off your life. oh my god.
that's right. don't leave me largely here by the late. night special band welcome back to the. fam mac fleet show series xm channel 82. mad dog sports.
power 3 you're being joined by aj hawk. living legend obviously. it's a great song we can't we don't have. time to sing it though oh because it's. tough once you get started you know once. you pop just can't stop with that song. it's so easy to sing it's not. just good to late nights good all the. time late night special band uh thank. you. very thankful for them uh steelers. ravens has been moved. from tomorrow night thanksgiving dinner. time uh well post thanksgiving dinner. time i guess because most people eat. earlier in the day. two sunday at four uh or sunday. afternoon whatever that game is.
we have a pretty good lineup of games. actually on sunday now now granted this. definitely sucks okay we're not happy. about this at all that this is happening. i mean this was the game that. everybody's looking forward to on. thanksgiving no offense alliance texans. or cowboys football team but this was. the game. that everybody was looking forward to. that's why i was on at night here we go. america needed it it has been postponed. because. kovid is running wild on the baltimore. ravens organization we hope everybody. survives obviously. uh you got chiefs bucks you got uh pits. uh steelers ravens and you also have. obviously. bears packers sunday night football.
titans gold something and titan's called. i mean there's four. massive matchups on sunday which is cool. but we are very much oh. what's next uh office here what's next. is obviously. uh thanksgiving thank you hey shot. thanksgiving thank you. thank you thank you and thank you tate. and also um love you type steals ravens. so we're definitely bummed what sunday. should be cool in the next one. aj you and i did a segment last week. and i enjoyed it and i think you did too.
um and it's boston connor's segment. ladies and gentlemen it's time for. questions from other sports shows. welcome. to questions from other sports shows. gentlemen let's have a clean clear. conversation here let's not you know. it's like a too angry at each other okay. um the first question aj can you please. acknowledge okay. yes the first question comes from first. take. are the steelers underrated hold on or. overrated. okay great question now the thing i've. been saying this entire time.
aj is if they're overrated what's that. mean they get talked about. once a week maybe they just gave a top. 10 quarterbacks in the nfl ben. roethlisberger wasn't on it they just. gave a top three rookie wide receivers. that you would build a team around. chase claypool wasn't on it these. are the most underrated. team in the history of the nfl. not just undefeated teams i'm talking. about undefeated. just teams in the nfl history oh they're. unbelievable. defense is a game changer okay and yeah. gary gilbert almost beat him but. hey we don't know about this new dallas.
cowboys team that might have been a much. better dallas cowboys team than a record. show remember. their entire locker room was crumbling. until gary gilbert. and them right the ship and then andy. dalton comes back from losing his head. and biting coven now he's leading that. team that might be a different squad the. steelers are incredibly underrated and. i'm fed up with it. well i mean i think this is great. because it works out perfectly you are. 100 wrong the steelers are 100 overrated. ben's basically on his last leg clay. pool is probably going to burn out their.
defenses. they're not going to win any more games. and diggs is probably going to get sick. so that's all there is. that diggs might get sick he's got a. terrible immune system but he's got a. great personality and he's a good guy so. i don't care about that. chase claypool's only getting started. he's not going to wear it what do you. think just because he's going to hit the. rookie wall at some point. hate to break it to you the rookie wall. hit about week two when they weren't. allowed to leave their goddamn house. because of kovac. chase claypool is only going to continue. to grind and ben roethlisberger he might. be on his last leg but guess what. he thrives on his last leg have you ever. seen his entire career. he is the last leg that got and he just.
wants to win one more super bowl. ride off in his sunset he said i'm back. because the offensive line loves me. and i love them i'm back because the. defense loves me and i love them. ben roethlisberger wants to get one more. win that's why they refuse to lose this. year. in something that's incredibly difficult. they might be the next goddamn 72. dolphins ain't nobody talking about it. it's good i think we can move on pat is. born for this stuff you should be on. network tv. debating these kind of topics you should. do political arguments too like this is.
what you were built for. wow well i have to get sick yeah what do. you want to die. i was trying to mow down everybody i. like oh thank you thank you and i'm a. big fan of ben i'm a big fan of play. pool. okay that means a lot i appreciate that. by the way the reason why i went first. is. because it's much easier to be on the. underrated side there than the overrated. you know i had to jump in there early. and by the way i'm assuming that that is. how those shows go right there. oh yeah oh yeah i'm assuming that's. exactly how it goes all right.
i don't believe anything i just said but. i'm gonna go ahead and motor it off. really quick first one to say it you win. and i'm gonna go loud so i think all. right round one we had a pretty good. little. good round i mean the second round is. more of a dictionary type of round. uh also comes from first take what. defines. success for the cowboys season go ahead. aj please. i mean okay i just got to let you know. like i got to let you behind the curtain. or people like i'm trying i'm i'm trying. to find a way to get into this bit to.
try like to try to make it a thing. and i can't like i just can't you're. you're obviously. very good at it and on this show like. doing this. what we're doing like this whole show. what we've done since cobot started. is the most like authentic i can be in. any show that i do. but i just can't bring myself to make a. fake argument. this is a damn question. like i honestly want to like i really. want to try to drum up some fake energy. and do this and i can't do.
it like it's not i guess i'm not willing. to do it so the season can't be. successful is your answer so. aj said that they they will not have. success no. they're okay fair enough for me i think. no what do you mean. that's what you said you. [Laughter]. this is sports talk aj have a little. respect okay somebody just hopped over. to channel 82 mad dog sports radio. because they want to hear sports talk. this is what sport this right here is.
what sports talk is to. define it this is what it is dude you. like it or you get off the all right. then tell me then tell me what defines a. successful season well it's funny you. say that because i think a successful. season for the. dallas cowboys is if they can somehow. keep that train on the tracks to finish. the season without it completely. imploding down there in dallas. they should call that a success just six. weeks into this season new regime. new organization new head coach they're. they're sniping windows and apartment. complexes that have views of the thing.
they're shutting down the media practice. which i guess has been happening for a. long time. they're able to go live and just stream. at all practice they're in a changing a. turning of the tide down there. if they somehow get through this entire. season without everybody hating each. other and without. having to cut everybody and salary cap. that old thing like in week six it. looked like it was gonna do. and potentially play for an nfc east. championship. late into the season that should be a. success for them because they look. terrible early and we all thought the. lone star was about to die off down. there wow.
pat ran away with that round sorry aj. you just got. absolutely dominated dude let's go one. uh one last question. okay this last one you know this came. from a few people it was on monday night. countdown it was on the monday night. football halftime show and also. mike greenberg of getup aj's favorite. show he also alluded to it yesterday. great work there should joe burrow who. just blew his. knee out sit out the 2021 season. to prepare for the 2022 season. please hey jack okay why.
why would he do this. if he gets cleared by a doctor to play. football. in the nfl why would he try to sit out. some valuable developmental time some of. the. valuable reps he needs this question is. ridiculous. all right yeah yeah i agree by the way i. still don't have an offensive line aj. by the way though here's my here's my.
other question. what the hell is happening in the 2022. season that makes it so special that he. needs to sit out and wait for that. well they'll have an offensive line by. 2022 they're getting in the stadium will. they. we don't know we don't know we have no. idea and by the way if he continues to. play. uh that style that you know the extend. to play thing he's going to take a lot. of hits anyways but. will they have a new offense in 2022. that you know they'll just drop from the. sky. you know what i mean because if they get. a new offensive coordinator after zach. taylor after this year. wouldn't next year be a good year to. maybe get a a little bit of a.
relationship. built with said play caller or something. like that or are they going to fire zach. taylor. after the 2021 or after the 2021 season. whenever joe's out for two and then he. can just start with the new offensive. coordinator with a new offensive line. and obviously a clean slate and just. it'd be like his rookie year again. also another follow-up question i would. have to this what is that. how does the rest of joe's team feel if. he's let's say he's back he could he's. full go like september 25th. and then like hey guys i'm good he. stands up in the team meeting guys just. want to let you know good to go.
knees great don't worry next season. after you guys finish these last 14. games i'm going to be a hell of a player. for you. i won't let you know i'm going to commit. to these off the field workouts that. i'll be doing for the next. season or so okay and i'll see you guys. next year because this team that i'm. looking at right here. we've all decided stinks doesn't cut it. so this team's going to think i don't. want to be a part of that next year. though team's going to be great. aj i think you won a fun run. congratulations. you do like this segment look at that. you crush it you love this segment dude.
wow. i do i mean sometimes you just have to. question the question. well i'll define success for you in that. segment and maybe that is your path to. success in that segment he's questioning. the question because. that's kind of the purpose of the the. entire segment there. but some of these questions don't. deserve responses. okay and that could be your answer too. but yeah you didn't you chose not to do. that in rounds one and two right that. you could have done right yeah. four and five by the way i mean you your. mind would have been in a pretzel my.
friend. would have been tough but we saw you. getting a little bit heated so we had to. accidentally note to self dictionary. rounds. you know probably off the yeah off the. table now that aj hates him well and. then there's. also we have the one word to describe. questions that could potentially yeah i. mean those ones are going to be good. those ones are going to be good let's go. to paul in new york what's going on paul. shout out to us. he probably hears us right now like. right now.
oh. yeah here's the dictionary round. [Applause]. paul i'm going to tell you what bud this. is going to be tough to talk because you. are on a 30-second delay so i'm just. going to motor through everything here. paul what do you want to talk about do. you want it to be the giants you want to. be the jets.
do you have a question how is new york. are you staying safe. can you hear us. got a question now do you think now with. the uh nfl talking about standing in the. playoffs uh if they have to go the extra. season that the ravens. are doing something to try to uh push it. back over. great question paul thank you for that. uh yeah there's. there's obviously the conspiracy fodder. that can start. from now on because if this game gets. delayed and then if it. it has to be rescheduled that means. there has to be like if they go if they.
can't play sunday somehow they'll try to. move that to monday. they've done this in the past and if you. can't play play because let's say more. and more positives keep coming by the. way this happened with the. uh the patriots chiefs this happened. with the titans this has happened before. where positives continue to go like all. if they have two days or something. without a positive then they can somehow. get back into it so if this thing isn't. played on sunday or monday or tuesday. then there's a week 18 that has to be. made because there's no shuffle room i. believe baltimore and the steelers have. both had their bye weeks. so it's going to be tough and i think.
there's only a couple teams left with. bye weeks. if you have a week 18 the nfl has said. they'll extend that to. eight teams from the afc eight teams. from the nfc when it was supposed to be. seven from each. maybe the baltimore ravens are playing. uh close sicilian here. and they're trying to play they're. currently the eight seed so actually. hats off to them for a. brilliant move to get kovid to. potentially get in the playoffs to be. honest i did say that earlier while. you're in the middle of your fiery oh my. bad. yeah but you said oh him or. something like that yeah. what were you gonna say yeah and i think. i don't think there's any chance of them.
moving it to monday or tuesday even. because the ravens are scheduled to play. dallas. thursday next week oh my god. it's coming yeah it's coming no first. round bye for the steelers. whenever you saw that in nfl season. being 17 weeks was awesome and couldn't. do any better. hold the phone how about. an 18th power week. teams playing that the games matter we. might have some teams playing against.
teams that have been out of the playoffs. for three months at that point. we would not have a bye week for any. playoff team that earned it the number. one. seeds in each conference will not have a. bye week because it does not matter. if you're playing in that week 18 game. like the steelers potentially are. there are now 16 teams in the dance. eight in the asc eight in the nfc and we. will find out. who is the super bowl who is the world. champion of this 2020 covet season when. you're not just playing your opponents. you're playing a worldwide pandemic.
that's trying to kill you at every. single turn. are you still uh are you still in the. last segment yeah it did feel like that. there for a second didn't it. at the end it didn't feel like that you. know like is a week 18 a good week or. not that would be a good question okay. well you'll probably see it in the next. couple days yeah it's coming probably. tomorrow. probably by the way they're very good at. creating those questions oh yeah second. to none it's not easy. let's go to geo down here in dallas. what's going on geo. what's going on what's going on man what. are you doing.
do they have our live feed oh they're. supposed to. oh so you know is this potentially yeah. i can't i can't i think this sounds like. it's 30 seconds. behind you but you appreciate you gio. what do you want to talk about man. i hear both of you anyways uh hey rogers. to the vikings. uh all those people that are. unappreciated y'all giving away y'all. stuff. oh thanks man that says bro that. pissed me off thank you. i will personally give them 142 000.
deliver them myself and shove it up. their ass. don't say that's a bad financial. decision um a lot of money. big shots a lot of money should hang on. to it you should hang on to it let's go. to uh. michelle in israel michelle what's going. on. hey um pat thank you very much for the. pet and dog. and the angry dogs with you. but the the conspiracy with it i'm a big. stealer fan here.
in israel we have such a way to respond. to these things. we we tell them you look at your face. and we see them screw. you oh. they do it down is really screw you look. somebody in the face they screw you. i'm actually hitting you from now and. from a minute ago. i hear w we hear us too in the. background he can turn that down if you. want to or just let it ride whatever. uh too much of me is a little bit too. much from when you you guys went.
when your dog made the drug noises like. ago it. went too loud now and i cannot hear what. you say. [Laughter]. all right sometimes you know. indianapolis to israel is. there's going to be some technical. things that happen there's a couple. satellites that we're hitting bing bing. around and we're going down. israel what part of israel are you in. michelle. um i mean i mean place called the holy. city of. north northeast okay and i think. israel i've heard like the uh a trip.
there there's a. what is it what's that what's the waning. wall uh not the birth rate the. birthright thing is for uh. jewish folks right to do that you gotta. go back at least one time but i think. there's a city over there that's like um. it's like a vegas over there tel aviv. tel aviv television i've heard tel aviv. is a great time michelle have you been. to tel aviv. so i i understood you asked question i. could not understand. what the question was all right shabbat. michelle i appreciate you dude. shabbat man good luck nice guy yeah so.
he's up here. in the north side he's close to uh to. beirut. oh thank you for this time. he needs to head to tel aviv i've heard. i've heard tel aviv has a good time is. what i've been told just down the coast. from him. uh let's go to mike over there in. baltimore mike do you have something to. say about the ravens who are you know. potentially trying to set up this week. 18 game. oh no what's going on today. what is there has to be something we. have to reset the funds pat. aj boys hey not too bad mike.
okay i hope everybody here in baltimore. because they heard there's a coveted. spike is okay and stay safe. we did try we had a call from israel. though that's pretty cool yeah all right. there we go you want an update on this. yeah what's the poll here for the sides. by the way aj i would like to hear your. thoughts on this thing. yep thanksgiving paul what's your. favorite side for thanksgiving uh last.
place mac and cheese 24.2. stuffing 37.4 mashed potatoes 38.49. no they got the colts right what do you. think aj i mean i didn't know is mac and. cheese a thanksgiving staple. okay this is very interesting so we've. been learning this on the social media. since announcing this. i think it's a southern thing i think. it's more of a i've had it whenever i. was at west virginia. and in indiana it is something so i. assume it could potentially be a.
regional thing but. those who love mac and cheese will put. it anywhere and it's not too shabby. next to the ham next to the turkey and. with the stuffing i mean it's actually. one good big. bite by the way if you want to go ahead. and do a little a combo thing. the thing that's missing by the way from. that bite if you notice is the shitty. ass mashed potatoes. it's your loss i agree if i had to pick. one of these three i would take uh. stuffing over mashed potatoes. aj knows you get it aj knows he doesn't. know he does no no. no he doesn't you're not just eating.
like slop that's what mashed potatoes. are. are you kidding rules listen you put. salt on there the grape cheese on there. is great butter it's on there. bacon bits bacon it's on there. it's great listen i understand that you. can dress up mashed potatoes okay you. can dress it up and it would taste good. and i have respect for mashed potatoes. obviously they've been a staple for a. long time okay i have respect for it. but whenever whenever it's head to head. with stuffing. it doesn't stand a chance not. not a single chance you just called. mashed potatoes slop.
i can't even look at you you basically. called it porridge dude. mashed potatoes are like one of the. original. six of the thanksgiving dinner meal okay. it was on the first. table and i don't want to get into who. was sitting at the table but it was. still on the first table mash. are one of the original mount rushmore. matches on there and you are. disrespecting it and calling it slop and. by the way. everything people ate back in those days. tastes like. oh whoa whoa yeah.
mashed potatoes small pox that's it. that's list that's what they ate bingo. listen turkey got deep fried got much. better very quickly true. okay mashed potatoes they figured out in. some way to make it taste good. load them in those pox you said found a. vaccine. you know what i mean maybe a better. question would have been what. thanksgiving sod gave you strength. what do you think gumpy say it no don't.
don't say it don't say it do it don't. say what you want to say yeah he's got. the worst take of all time. he's trying to go do it let him do it. obviously stop. it no no no no. loves the cranberries dude. they call stuffing dressing down in the. south by the way really i believe it's. called that yeah that's foolish. and the mac and cheese on the side it. does make sense so. well it doesn't matter what you call it. it tastes better than mashed.
potatoes. i love it not a single person that voted. there okay will eat their mashed. potatoes plain. not a single one of them well but. they're gonna eat the mashed potatoes. first because it's their favorite side. and the majority rules and that just won. today's pull. yeah you you just like them are. programmed. first table no it was the first sign. that ever happened. more than once a year i would congrats. to me i do. yeah i'm on keto currently so i can't do.
it but i would. i've boxed a stove top in the house at. all times and they're ready dog food. thank you nick by the way i love mashed. potato. dogs love the mashed potatoes get stuck. on her lips and stuff and. eat it later you know yeah i'm team dog. idiots. [Music]. not the dogs i'm talking about corner. all right. have a great thanksgiving i will not be. on nxt tonight pete dunn will be beating. the hell out of an undisputed air. remember that would be a great watch. we're off tomorrow we'll be back friday.

son of a this guy god gotta love. it though. everyone else is taking off so they want. someone live don't they i don't know i. think that was kind of like hey. everybody else is not doing shows yeah. no one wants to come in so uh you guys. you guys want to do it or not that's. good or no no no no no no i got no. problem yeah a couple. a lot of the boys are traveling or. whatever but as long as we can turn that. light on. i will speak if i have to take a lot of. phone calls you know. talk about the big sale friday soon yeah. hopefully they have the phone lines uh. fixed by then oh my god what are we.
gonna do on friday can't do three hours. of that. hey that's real we're gonna have to. figure that one out by friday for real. but not on thanksgiving because you guys. should enjoy the holiday what do you got. going on. you gotta you gotta feed like what 15. kids just in your house. no you know just a small intimate. gathering in the house smart family. intimate people we've been with the. whole time what about you. same yeah absolutely what about the boys. they're all traveling just going to. spread it everywhere or what. yeah it's interesting they're trying to. go to each other one of these cities.
pick it up and bring it back yeah. drive around do the responsible thing. get some gas. oh just wait until you see the amount of. cover tests that are gonna be required. for these boys to get back in the. office. oh yeah oh yeah yeah yeah i might have. got my hands on some cover tests by the. way. probably wasn't supposed to say that i'm. sure they're legit i'm sure they're uh. when you got dm'd somebody said they had. they can give them to you i'm sure that. that guy's uh. very credible wasn't a dm it was an idea. was a phone call from somebody that was. very credible. md and it was very very interesting you. know it was very very interesting.
it would be nice because we got to sit. and he's dude getting the test. is impossible especially now. yeah i sat for three hours the other day. to get my test because of how many. people are trying to get i think for. thanksgiving so they're not the bad. person going into their holiday which. i can respect it or whatever but it is. it is tough to get them so. you know i just trying to make some. calls around mm-hmm you know what i mean. trying to swing the hammer a little bit. around thank you mr goodell. thank you thank you good day goodell. didn't give me the test yeah that is not. okay for the tesla. what happened to those quick tests that.
were supposed to happen for the pac-12. you remember that. they were fake they got them done do. they yeah i think so i don't think. they're allowed to use for travel though. like i'm not allowed to use those ones. for travel travel you got to do a pcr. big air. and the pcr ones when they get in the. nose there they go. they go for it man they do the quick. ones don't they but. aren't like don't you automatically have. to get like a backup. no swab one yeah they got the immediate. response one if there is an emergency. feel and it's like 90 to 95 percent. accuracy is what they say but how do.
they know you know. yeah it's like 90 90 10 it's a wild. swing that is. it's like a 95 accuracy that's why you. have to get the big one. if you want to travel anywhere because. the quick one can give you some peace of. mind i guess. to go to uh an event or whatever uh or a. thing where other people have to get it. but the pcr one is. it is two days three days sometimes. i've been getting two a week for like. the last month and a half i'm about. you know done with it so but i gotta do.
it gotta be safe gotta be smart. and i'm getting connor uh i thought. connor. found like he's uh one of the early guys. to get his hand on a bunch of uh the. the vaccines coming out no no no i i. tried but i wasn't able to. aj thank you for checking in on that i. thought you were i figured i thought you. and bill gates were tight. nah me and gates we kind of lost. communication after uh. i switched to the ps5 but uh i i. appreciate what you're you know getting. probably smart yeah he loves you. whenever you're on that oh yeah he. actually reached out to my gamer tag.

pick i don't think but i feel like. you should don't feel forced just if you. feel it just say it. that's what i'm saying that's i i felt. it i so i was looking at this lions. texans game and lions are underdogs. correct. yeah oh yeah they're winning i don't. need the points on that. let's go big bounce back game big bounce. back game to buy matt patricia another. week. okay hey i wasn't gonna bet that game. because i didn't know how to go. now that you said that like that i'm. going with that as well i like to.
i like the boys too against washington. football team by the way they're minus. two and a half. i like them to cover just because this. is the andy dalton revenge tour. and andy dalton played a lot of really. good football when he was at cincy but. nobody knows because nobody knew it. because. he was at cincy and that is uh mike. mccarthy and the boys i feel like they. figured it out down there. oh absolutely i'm not saying when i say. about patricia i don't want them i don't. think they should fire him i'm just. saying it seems like that's where we're. at in the season with him. devlin hodges is tweeting about being. tweeted at about him tweeting about the.
