Phone calls, 877-3-DP show operator Tyler sitting by. Our stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the program say good morning if you're watching on Peacock or NBC Sports Network. Thank you. Or listening on our great radio affiliates around the country. Satan, would you update the poll results from hour one? And do we have a new poll question for hour two? Oh, man. Hour one we've got up there. Do you believe the Ravens were trying to pair Trey Hendrickson and Max Crosby together? You guys want to guess the results on this one? 85, 15. Oh, boy, are you close and in which direction? Just to be clear, they don't believe that the Ravens were going to pair both of them. It would be 89% do not believe that. Which I think is funny. You know, the only thing that I kind of think, like maybe there is some truth to it is that they were able to sign Trey Hendrickson very fast right after the Max Crosby thing fell apart. So there were clearly already discussions happening. They were clearly talking to both parties at the same time. Man, to be able to turn that around that fast. Maybe there is some truth to it, but I don't know who was in the market for Trey Hendrickson. I didn't hear any other teams because of the asking price. But hey, if Eric decosta, the GM of the Raven, said they were interested in both, then kind of agree. Okay, maybe they were, you know, maybe you were kind of flirting a little bit. Maybe they got buyer's remorse when they were bringing in Max Crosby. Maybe the more they thought of it, the more they were thinking, man, do we want to give up two first round picks for this guy? Well, let's bring him in. Well, he's coming in anyway. Now all of a sudden you go, maybe. Well, the pass is physical. Max, we got some bad news for you. We. We're gonna have to let you go back to the Raiders. Trey Hendrickson online one. Okay, hold on. Max, see you later and thank you again. But you get Trey Hendrickson. I understand it like, if I'm the Ravens, I don't give up two first round draft picks. Now, granted, those first round picks are going to be. Well, this one this year was a top 15, I believe. Now, the one after that would probably be in the late 20s. But if I can get Hendrickson, I think he can give me two years. I know they gave him a four year deal, but it'll probably be two years. And if I can get something out of him that he's not Max Crosby. But I don't have to give up those first round picks, and I think those are essential. They're going to have Lamar restructure his deal. But the Ravens are saying that they were in the market for both of them. All right, some of the headlines from last night. Italy helps out USA basket baseball as they advance. By the way, the breakdown of players on team Italy who were born in Italy. Todd, do you want to guess how many of team Italy were born in Italy? I'm going to say 6. All right, Seaton? I'll be more optimistic. I'll say 10. All right, Marvin. 4. All right, Paul. 7. 3. 3. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Stat of the day. Here comes that. What? What? Brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the DP show 24 from the United States, three from Italy, two from Venezuela and one from Canada. And Team USA benefits because now you have the elimination round. You have Team USA facing Canada tomorrow night. Italy plays Puerto Rico in the quarterfinals on Saturday. Yes. Paul. Dan, just to be balanced, I've got USA's baseball roster here. Zero players from Italy born on our roster. Zero. Yeah. Sutton, does it take away from the World Baseball Classic that it's basically just Americans going by their nationalities? Like where. Where's Ireland? Out there? Can we get it? Can we field a team of Irishmen? Soccer does this, doesn't it, with the World Cup? I guess I think you have to be a citizen. So I'm guessing that everybody is a citizen of the teams that they're playing for. Like you could have dual citizen, dual citizenship. Right. Assuming that that's the case. But I don't know. If I was from United States and I played for Italy, I would demand that I get dual citizenship. I think you gotta give me something other than the opportunity to play in the World Baseball Classic. But it's been fun. I've watched a whole lot more than I thought I was going to and watched Italy. Now I'd have to go to my 23andMe and look at that and see who I would play for. How many options would you have? Well, I think I've got a Great Britain. I could probably play for Great Britain. Ireland, Wales, Scotland, they're not playing baseball. I got the 1 1/2% eskenazi. So team Israel, there you go. We'll take you. All right. There's like 1% West Africa. So I don't. Do they. Did they have a team? I'm not quite sure. You start to look at your 23 and me and you go, I got some questions about, you know, whatever happened down through the years here. How do we get, you know, some of these countries in there? The 1%, 2%. Yes. Seaton. That's why my 23andMe was arguably, it was simultaneously great and the most boring of all time, because it was like 99.9%, you know, English or, you know, Irish, UK, British, like, whatever. It was all concentrated right there. But you'll get those stragglers like that one and a half percent. You're like, what happened here? But mine was a little more interesting than I thought it was going to be, because I thought it was going to be all, you know, the emerald aisle. But turns out that there were some. Some rogue percentages in there. All right, so Team USA gets Canada on Friday night, and Italy moves on to take on Puerto Rico. A couple of college basketball notes. You had McNeese, not McNeese State anymore. Lehigh and Idaho, they get their tournament bids. Bobby Hurley's out at Arizona State. Syracuse has a job opening, and I'm thinking Jerry McNamara now, he's got a tournament bid with Siena. And then after that, then he takes the 2 hour and 15 minute drive from Siena College to Syracuse to take over at his alma mater. What about Bobby Hurley joining Danny Hurley at UConn? Could you imagine him as an assistant coach there? They were. They were on the same team. Right, Marvin? Does that sound right? It was correct. Bobby and Dan. Yeah. Yep. Years ago. I think they were both coaches on the same. Same team. But was Danny with Bobby at Buffalo or was it Wagner? Bobby Hurley was with Danny Hurley for two seasons at Wagner College and one season at University of Rhode Island. Oh, okay. Yeah. So Bobby Hurley is out at Arizona State. Here's another thing. The same year Indiana football wins the national title, the basketball team goes 18 and 14, lost to Northwestern yesterday by 13 to get knocked out of the Big Ten tournament. Indiana is a football school, much to the chagrin of the state. That's a basketball state. But for Indiana basketball, like 15, 20 years ago, this would be a huge deal if this happened to Indiana basketball. Now, when's the last time you talked about Indiana basketball? When's the last time they had a player that you talked about with Indiana basketball. That's what's pretty surprising here. NFL free agency slowing down. Although you still have Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray is going to be probably visiting Minnesota or might be a zoom call based on what Ross Tucker was talking about. That Kyler Murray wants to know after this season, if. If I have, you know, if I'm correctly reading what Ross Tucker was saying, that, hey, I'm going to go and play for one year, I want to know who's going to be interested in me after this. If that's what Ross Tucker was actually describing, that maybe I go to Minnesota, I want to know, is somebody, you know, looking at me long term, that he has three to five zoom calls that coming up this week, which is kind of surprising. I don't know why I would tip my hand and say, hey, we'll be interested in you in a year from now in the NFL at that position. Things change. Daniel Jones got paid $44 million a year. The new Kirk Cousins in the NFL, and good for him. I. I was surprised at that amount, but Daniel Jones was a thing there for about 10 games and then not a thing after that. Yes. He's going to end up making just an unbelievable amount of money. Yeah. Can we do career salary game with Daniel Jones? Can with this contract or without? With this contract. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Celery. Here we go. Two part game. Daniel Jones, how much has he made and will he make after this contract based off the minimum he can make. What has he made already? A little hint. In 2023, he made $46 million with the Giants. What has he made so far? Let's just combine it. Okay. Yeah. Let's make it easier. I don't know if it's easier, but make it just one total. Todd, you want to throw out Daniel Jones will make after this contract, how many millions of dollars? 227 million? I'm gonna say 253. Marvin? 281. I'm gonna go 239. Five thrown in the five. $258 million. Oh, dang. I was close. Yes. All right. Congratulations. Congratulations. Thank you. Let me see the NFL get that 5 million difference that I was off by the fire. I get then that you win that Daniel Jones owns that owes that to me. NFL's looking at the night before Thanksgiving, the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, when there's three games on Thanksgiving and why not cram another one in there now social media was like, oh, you know, I don't like this at all. And. But you're still going to watch it. Like, it. The NFL, you can't deny, like, there's other sports or other events where you go, I'm not going to watch it. It's the NFL. You'll watch. What else is going to be on. You're going to be maybe going to the bar. Usually people on that Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, coming back home and you get together with, you know, former classmates, but you're going to have a game on. And that's what they're looking at Wednesday night, the night before Thanksgiving. I keep wondering, what is the downside? I. I don't know if there is. Because you're going to. They have you. It'll be fantasy, it'll be gambling, and it'll be. Nothing else is on. And you'll watch. Yes. Todd wasn't. Isn't there something to be said? Remember the days of, like, you're waiting once a week your favorite TV show is on and that's, that's the big day and you can't wait. And they have a tease at the end and you. And there's something that builds up as opposed to, you know, just having it every day. Wouldn't that take away some of the. Would you want to go back to 1985 when there's two games, maybe three games available? I'd like a few more than that, but I think we're getting to an oversaturated point. I think, I think that hurts the NBA. It's definitely hurting mlb. And I just, it's. There is such thing as too much of something. I believe that. Okay, but how much is too much? That's what has to be figured out. But I don't think we need the NFL every single day as much as we all love the NFL. You know, I wouldn't mind like a day or two break between trying to keep track of all the games there are. There's no Tuesday games, but once they do, once they did Thursday, and like, they just, they keep pushing the envelope and, you know, I, I don't see a need for like, trying to see if every day of the week there could be at least one NFL game. So if the. What if the Broncos play Wednesday night, it's the Broncos. I'll watch that. I don't know if I'm necessarily watching Saints Falcons game on Wednesday night, but if that's the only game that's on, that's how they get you. They had the standalone game, so you end up watching anyway. Yeah, I don't think people tune out or turn away. It's the NFL. You know, as long as the product is good, entertaining, interesting, then people are going to watch. Even if it. You don't. You don't bet on the game or you don't have fantasy attached to this. Yeah, see, Yeah. I mean, I'm kind of along the same lines as Todd where I do. I do think that we don't need the NFL almost every night. I think that there's probably room for everything else. And I think it's. I'll always watch my team and I'll always watch what the important games are. But it becomes less likely on that. Yes. Say that we add a Tuesday game, a Wednesday game, whatever. Even Thursdays. I'm kind of like, unless it's a team or a game that I'm really interested in, I'm not watching. Yeah, but I think we're different because, you know, I think younger fans probably are betting on the game and they probably are doing fantasy. We're not doing either. Therefore you're watching these games. And the number of people that I'm around, younger people who say, hey, I gotta have a reason to watch this game and they want to put money on it. That's not us. I just think that, you know, they have you. You'll watch the game. For the most part, I'm with you. On Thursday night. It's like, I don't like Thursday Night Football. I don't think the quality has been good. I don't think it's fair to the players. I hope they don't do Friday, hope they don't do Saturday. But they, they, the NFL wants to push that. They want to push it out to the world. And it's like they take us for granted. Now the expansion is, you know, global. Everybody's going to be playing a game outside the United States. Yeah, Paul, I went back and looked at the Thanksgiving eve schedule for last year, 2025. There is no football on college or pro, obviously, but there was a triple header of NBA games. Three games between 5 and 10pm and the NBA started this. The first ever, ever NBA tripleheader was last year on Thanksgiving eve. I looked at the networks and it was all like packaged shows, not traditional network shows, like pre Thanksgiving type shows, holiday type fair. And the NBA. Every time they must turn around, they go, wait, what's the NFL doing? To us. Yeah. Christmas Day, the night before Thanksgiving. Yeah. Seaton. Yeah. I think it's interesting that you're just talking about how young people need a reason to watch the game. And, and that reason more often than not currently is gambling. That would be the sign of not having a good product, though, if you need a reason to watch the game other than it's just a good game. But, oh, well, I have money riding on the game, so now I have to watch the game. That would, that would indicate to me that the NFL product is not good because unless you're gambling, then you're less likely to watch it. Well. And they don't grow up as fans of teams nowadays. You grow up as fans of players because you're in fantasy. I don't know, loyalty wise, if you're watching games, how many games you watch? I just know in my family with my kids, it's, oh, I'll watch the packers game. Oh, they don't gamble, but they have fantasy. So you might be watching it that way. But for us, it's different. I mean, I probably watch more football because I'm not gambling or not doing fantasy because I had a hard time when I was gambling watching those games. And I watch, I watch Red Zone now. I'll watch the big game, a full game, and then I'll watch red, red Zone. But I think, you know, kids nowadays, you know, attention span, hey, I got something on it. My fantasy team. It's just different than us. Take a break, get some more phone calls. Coming up. 877-3-DP show email address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP show who has the best odds to have more sacks in 2026?

Trey Hendrickson of the Ravens. Max Crosby of the Raiders. If you said Trey Hendrickson, you would be correct. He has better odds than Max Crosby. Miles Garrett is your clubhouse leader. Yes, Todd. Staying with that. How many more sacks do we think Trey Hendrickson would have if you believe that than Max Crosby at the end of the year? I don't know how healthy Max Crosby is. Assuming he's okay and he's fine for the most part and doesn't have a big setback. So he just plays like Max Crosby. Yeah, maybe. Maybe slightly less than he was because he had the surgery. But assume they're both at almost 100%. Trey would have how many more sacks if he's the leader in the clubhouse over Matt? One and a half. Okay. I was just curious what you thought. I have no idea. I'm gonna say he's gonna have three and a half more. Okay. All right. Okay. I'm gonna take Max Crosby because Max is probably not going to be in a good mood every. Every week after this. He's got a chip on his shoulder. Begrudgingly. Yes, Todd. I thought he's in a great mood. According to the social media. He's excited to be back. Let's go. Let's bring it on back with the Raiders like I wanted. I don't know what mood I would be in if I had to go back to the team that I basically said goodbye to, that I said I wouldn't play for anymore and I was going to go to Baltimore, I was going to play for a team that might go to the Super Bowl. Said I'm going back to the rebuilding Raiders. Yay. Yes, Todd. At least the Raiders are in a very easy division. You could just get past the Chiefs, Broncos and charges with a wink of an eye. Yes. Marvin isn't it awkward when he sees the gm? Hey, Max, great to have you back. Back Silver and back. Yes, Paulie, it's. But he's going to play the good soldier role for the next few weeks. He's still getting paid, but that it feels like it's open season to lowball the Raiders. I would I say you're not getting two first round draft picks. We'll give you a first and a third for Max Crosby. Which teams are in the position where they can a give that up to them, pay that salary and are in the need of somebody like Max Crosby as maybe the final piece like Buffalo. It feels like if I'm Buffalo, I don't stop with DJ More. I look at AJ Brown, it feels like somebody's going to get him. The question is how much is enough for the Eagles to go? Okay, now if I'm the Eagles, I don't want to give him up because he's so good. I know that he sounds like he doesn't like playing there or doesn't want to play there any longer. If I'm New England, I certainly would freshen up that deal. That's one of those, you know, Stefan Diggs is gone. You can put him in and you got to have that security blanket for, you know, Drake, maybe you got good running game and build off of that. Continue to make the offensive line good and maybe you can surprise people again and go back, you know, deep, make a deep playoff run. Yeah, Paulie, we do have some new odds for the team to acquire Max Crosby. There are two teams tied and then it drops off a lot. Who are those two teams? Marvin, I'll let you start. The Chargers. Nope. Todd. The Titans going off the board with Titans for 500. Okay. Okay. All right, Seaton. The New England Patriots. The Buffalo Bills. It's the Bears and the Cowboys tied for Max Crosby as of this morning. Well, the Cowboys were in up until the final moment when he decided to go to Baltimore or Baltimore made a better offer. But we wondered about that yesterday. If you're the Cowboys, do you re engage? You just got Rashawn Gary, the Bears. That had been rumored. I don't know if reported, but rumored for a little while there. Couple of phone calls here. Let's see. Dan in Naples. Dan. Hey, if you want a real perspective of how big Wilt was, there's a really famous photograph of Arnold, him and Andre the Giant. And I was a comic book dork, so I loved Conan the Destroyer. And then I was like, who's that guy? And then I fell in love with basketball because of that. But will, it really is perspective on how massive that dude was. Yeah, he was a little legitimate. 712 75. I think that's what he was listed in the program. I don't know if it ever changed. It feels like all of the programs that I saw had him. 712 75. And that's probably what it's going to be if you go to basketball prospectus or NBA that they got him at 71275. Nathan in Virginia. Hi, Nate. What's on your mind today? Fifth time, long time. 7 1, 275 pounds. I will. I have the stat of the day for you. Since 1997, the Washington Wizards have only 955 wins since entering the league in 1997. Tim Duncan, who's been retired for over 10 years, has over a thousand wins. This is the start of the day. Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show. It'd be tough to be a Wizards fan unless you're going to games to see the opposition. It'd be really tough to show up and watch that product. It's been a long time now. I go back to the Bullets, Washington Bullets, and they had some great teams, but, you know, sometimes they'll get a good player and then he won't be on the team much longer than that. Yeah, Paul. Can anyone guess the last time the Washington Wizards, or whatever they were called, had a season where they won more than 50 games? More than 50. Were they called the Wizards at the time? Yes. Great question. Double checking. They were not. They weren't. They were the Bullets. Yeah. So we're. We're entering a different century. Millennium to have this discussion. I was gonna say 1996. 96 season they were 44 and 38. Dan, I'm gonna give you a bloop because they did make playoffs. Yes, Marvin. I'm gonna say 1979. Wow. Marvin is correct. 78, 79, 54 and 28. They lost the Finals, Dick. Yeah. Yeah. They went to the NBA Finals that year. Yeah. Dick Motta was the coach. Elvin Hayes, they won the finals the previous year and it's been famine ever since. Wow. Like accidentally you can get better, right? 50 wins is not. I mean, it's not that difficult. Yes, Marvin. Not over a 50 year. I mean, you could stumble into one over a 50 year stretch. The Sacramento Kings have won 50 games since 1979. Not even the John Wall, Bradley Beal, Gilbert Arenas. You guys Couldn't sneak in a 51 game season. Otto Porter. Otto Porter Jr. The Nick. Nick Young Years. 2016, 2017. The Wizards were 49 and 33. Too close to the sun. Yes, Marvin, or yes, Todd? Basketball needs to take something out of football's parody playbook that should not go that many years where you can't get significantly better. I know, and it's a big market too, but, man, that is. That is no man's land. That's. That's basketball's version of getting a timeout. Yeah. Go to your room. Where am I? What? You're going to the Wizards. Anything but that. Yes, Marvin. As Jordan Pool. Yeah, I got punched in the face and I got traded to Washington. What would you rather get punched in the face and stay with Golden State or you get traded to Washington? Ah. Than the easy one. I'll take the punch. I've been punched in the face before. Yeah, same. I would let you punch me in the face if I could just get away from Draymond Green. So I would gladly take the punch in the face and the trade easily. Yes, Todd. Unless it was a skull fracture or an orbital bone thing. Yeah, I'm staying with the Warriors. I'll just get the treatment. Let's see. Robert in Sacramento. Hi, Robert. Morning, fellas. You know, I'm listening to a lot of people get upset over Italy than their people and having more Americans on their team than Italians. But I do remember a time where dual citizenship was used for. For USA Basketball with, you know, that wonderful American, Hakeem Olajuwon, playing for. For us and Patrick Ewing and Tim Duncan. I think it just goes to show that. That if it's happening against the United States, we're not. We're not happy with it. I don't have a problem with it at all. You know, it doesn't matter, you know, who's from Puerto Rico, who's from Mexico. Only in those countries, if they, you know, have a problem or don't have, like, I don't care. I'm just watching the game. If you qualify with what they're asking you to qualify for, as far as ethnicity, we just look for things like, man, I gotta be mad today. I gotta be upset today. You know, all those guys aren't from Italy. Okay. Yes, Marvin. And three of us in here are married to Italian women. They have a real love and appreciation for being Italian. Right? So I can understand that. It's like, hey, my family's from the old country. I may have been born in Virginia or Connecticut or Whatever. But you know what? We're going to celebrate the old country, so fine. Aiden in Utah. Hi, Aiden. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan, Good morning. Yeah, I wasn't going to call in today, but I saw how loaded the guest list was. I figured you had time to squeeze me in there. All right. Yeah, I want to, I want to. I wanted to talk about Kyler Murray a little bit. His work ethic gets. Gets thrown around a lot. You know how he. It might not be the best, but he was 420 in Texas High school football. He won the Heisman. It was a top 10 pick in the MLB and number one overall in the NFL and one offensive rookie of the year, all while being under six foot. I don't necessarily believe he could do accomplish all those things without having some sort of sustainable, respectable work ethic. Oh, I just think he was more talented than anybody, everybody. You can't put the language in a contract and then say, well, you know, he accomplished all these things, so he has to have a work ethic. When the team says, we need you to study, then that tells me you were so talented in high school and you were so talented in college. When you get to the NFL, you got to study. But the fact that that got out. So this is his own team doing this to him. He signed a contract. He didn't say, I'm not signing this contract, I have a great work ethic. They question his work ethic and rightfully so talented player, but the fact that they knew that he wasn't studying, he's so good that he could still put up good numbers. But at some point he's not going to be that elusive, that electric. And that's where you have to have the knowledge to be able to somehow outsmart teams. And if you're not going to put in the time, the effort, you'll be bouncing around. This next stop won't be his last stop. Let's see. Peacock in Alabama. Hi, Peacock. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan. 5, 10, 2, 35. I got a question for Seaton. If I remember correctly, don't you have a USL 2 team scarf up there? I think I should have a Portland Hearts of Pine scarf up here. Yeah. All right. If I send you. If I send you a Dothan United one, would you put it up there? Made it to the semifinals last year, putting up a heck of a team this year hoping to win it. All right, yeah, send it in. Send it. Heck yeah. Seaton is scarf face. See what I did with that dude? Yes. Very nice. Yes. Bloop. Mother grab in blue. Scarf face. Scarface. Yeah. Yeah. I might start that as a, like Instagram account or something. And it's like an avatar we do is go over scarves and whose are the best and who's are not. Yeah. All right, we'll take a break. More phone calls coming up. Tyler sitting by. I'll take your phone calls. 877-3-DP show email address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle DP Show. We're back after this.

It's been pointed out to me by several people that the Cardinals did remove the independent study clause from Kyler Murray's contract. That was in 2022. I think they did that as a PR move because they embarrassed him. And I think they were trying to, I don't know, smooth that over a little bit there because I don't want my franchise quarterback being upset with me because I have publicly outed him as somebody who doesn't put in the time or effort. But the damage was done that they were going to put that in the contract. And the fact that they did tells you about his work ethic. You know, we didn't bring up Geno Smith going back to the jets, and I, I. Are you going to applaud, Marvin? I was. I was going to. Happy. Okay. Okay. Come on. J E T T S Somebody put out on social media the number of quarterbacks that the jets have employed over I don't know how many years. It feels like it's a hundred years because it's like 30, 40 quarterbacks who have gone through there. In fact, the list was so long, they even forgot to put in Christian Hackenberg in there as one of the jets quarterbacks. Slap in the face. Yes. There's something just unusually cruel to me about this trade in that the Raiders are sending Geno Smith and a seventh rounder in exchange for a sixth rounder. Good grief. I know. There's just something about that, to me that feels like, what do you got to kick the guy for when he's down? Like, just come on. And we thought that maybe Minnesota, I've been saying for the last couple of weeks, it's probably going to be the Jets. I think Kurt Cousins was a possibility there, but that feels like the Raiders saying, what do you need to take him, please? But if you look at the jets quarterbacks. So I don't know how long this stretch is. Paulie, it's from Geno to Geno. The last time Geno Smith started the game till they reacquired him. Okay. Matt Sims, Michael Vick, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Bryce Petty, Josh McCown, Sam Darnold, Trevor Simeon, Luke Falk, Joe Flacco, Zach Wilson, Mike White, Josh Johnson, Chris Striveler. That you're making that one up. You threw in a fake name. Aaron Rodgers, Tim Boyle, Tyrod Taylor. Who else is on that list? As I try to bring it up there, Paulie, Justin Fields, Brady Cook, and back to Geno Smith, possibly. Okay, wow, that does seem right there. Is the. The root of the problem. If you've had that many quarterbacks and you still haven't solved it and they miss out again because if they had the number one pick in the draft, then we would, you know, say, all right, you got for. I mean, I feel bad for Fernando Mendoza. Even though the jets should be better than the Raiders this year, it just. Whoa, wait, you. They didn't have one takeaway. Okay, so they're due. So your takeaways. They didn't have any takeaways. And now that they're going to be worse than the Raiders. All right, tomato, tomato. You want to do fight of face. Raiders, jets. Ball to the balls. All to the ball to the balls. Yes, Paulie, the Jets haven't made the postseason since 2010. Okay, but they're not the Dolphins. When's the last time the Dolphins. How many times they made the playoffs? I know they made it a couple of years ago. They lost Kansas City. Yeah. Dolphins have had four playoff appearances in the past 23 years. I think the Raiders. Two playoff appearances in the past 23 years. How many playoff wins do the Dolphins have over that period? None. Okay. All right. Yes, Todd. Sounds like a new play. Rather go to the play. Mike. I got. I stepped on your line there. Sounds like a new slogan you have for the Jets. We're not the Dolphins. That's a nice rallying cry, but on the COVID of the media guy. All right, thank you, Todd. See? Would you update the poll results, please? Heck, yeah, I'd be happy to do that, Dan. Okay. Do you believe that the Ravens were trying to pair Trey Hendrickson and Max Crosby together? That is up to 90% believe. No, that is not the case. I don't think they were trying. I think it sounds good, you know, when the GM says, hey, you know, this is crushing. No, you know what's crushing Max Crosby? It's Crushing to him. Yeah. You fly cross country, you're ready to go, you got the new start in your career, you're going to play for a contender, and then you're told you didn't pass your physical. But as I brought up to Ross Tucker, I want to know, okay, what is it that you saw? Because I, I, I feel like I, I have the right to know what you saw on my MRI or my X rays, and I don't know if players get that information, but I don't know, maybe the Players association. Can we ask or ask Florio, Fritzi, and then we can try the Players Association. Can, can you find out? Could Max Crosby legally find out what they found out in his mri? Because it's his results and unless they don't want to expose themselves from the fact that, hey, this isn't true what you're saying, and we're just trying to get out of the contract, but see if Florio has some information on that. Sam in Wyoming. Hi, Sam. What's on your mind today? Hey, Dan. Dennis and the 40 bathroom guys, just a quick question. Should the Steelers overpay for Max Crosby just despite the Ravens, I mean, at least one, you know, pairing him with T.J. watts, at least him, one of them should be available, you know, for game day. It's not the worst idea, but here's the thing. I don't know how healthy Max Crosby is. I know that he is going to have to get healthier, but that goes along with knee surgery. I don't know what the Ravens saw, what, two months after surgery, where they go, oh, you know, what we're concerned about, you know, long term. What is long term in the NFL? I just want to know, can Max play for the next two years at a high level? Yes, Marvin. But is it a good idea in General to get two high price items on your defense where you're paying two guys $30 million? Like that's not a good idea to me. Well, wait a minute. That's what the Ravens were going to do with Max Crosby and Trey Hendrickson. Yep. Terrible idea. Oh, that's what I'm saying. Yeah. I just think it's bad, period. Like, I'm going to get both of those guys to not win the Super Bowl. Nick and Irvine. Hi, Nick. What's on your mind today? What's on my mind today, Dan, is as I'm sitting on traffic, trying to work my way down to the lbc, the radio game in la. Billion dollar game, as you know. And I've just been sitting here for years in the morning being entertained by you guys. And it's just unbelievable watching the talent from the ESPN channel, which is the Lakers channel. You know, it's a big deal in la, and you have beaten down Stephen A. And Max and every from the very highest talent on the other side. And just year after year, guy after guy. And it's not just because of you, Dan. You are the anchor, literally. But you put together this miraculous synergy of people. Well, thank you, Nick. It's too bad we had to cut them off. I was really curious. I know, I know. Yeah. Call back anytime, Nick. Final hour on this Thursday. Seton, Paulie, Marv, Fritzi, yours truly, and the back room guys. It's a team. It takes a village. This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human.
