You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on fox Sports Radio. Hour 2 On this Monday, Gangs all here. More phone calls. Best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that you liked you didn't like football tonight. Bengals Broncos. Bengals are getting seven and a half and jets and Dolphins. There'll be a lot of jets fans in Miami and the jets are getting two and a half. You start to think about now this is early to think about this, but you start to think about worst case scenarios and this is a worst case scenario if the Dolphins happen to lose this game and you wonder if management would make a change there. You also wonder at a certain point do you start trading away assets if you know you're not going to be in the mix here and if you're going to replace your coach as well. I don't know if you survive losing to the jets at home. Jets are once again getting two and a half points. All right. 8773 DP show email address dp@danpatrick.com Twitter handle @dpshow Good morning.

Dan Patrick (5:28)

Quick turnaround. If you would like to get one of those T shirts in other merchandise@danpatrick.com Todd Congratulations. Thanks.

Todd (5:35)

I don't know if I'm supposed to be flattered or upset or I think I'm kind of excited about it. See how it sells.

Dan Patrick (5:40)

It's amazing the number of people who came up to me this weekend, random people, be like, hey, I'm all in with Todd. I agree. Or be just somebody. Now. These are just people coming up. They don't even introduce themselves. They're like, hey, what is Todd thinking? You got to get out of the left lane. It's a passing lane. I said, I know.

Todd (6:00)

It's a very passionate topic.

Dan Patrick (6:02)

Thank you, Todd.

Todd (6:03)

That's the passing lane.

Dan Patrick (6:04)

But yes.

Paulie (6:04)

Paul, do you find yourself now driving to work and in traffic, looking at.

Dan Patrick (6:08)

Things differently on the left lane? Yes.

Paulie (6:10)

Yeah, I'm analyzing it.

Dan Patrick (6:12)

Yes. I'm. I stay out of the left lane. I don't even want to be in the left lane. Just going to be right in the middle or the right lane just because of Todd.

Todd (6:21)

That's the right play.

Dan Patrick (6:21)

Stat of the day, brought to you by Panini America. The official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show. We will get to more phone calls. We got to settle on a poll question. Gerald McCoy played the game and now he's an analyst for NFL Network. He'll join us coming up. A tie last night and entertaining tie. And I think I have more questions about the packers than I do the Cowboys. Like, I sort of know who the Cowboys are. They're going to be okay. They'll be, they'll be fun, entertaining. But the packers defense, that's. That was what was surprising because you're supposed to be really good. And now all of a sudden, you don't look at the packers, you know, after the loss against Cleveland, like, man, you guys are stale, struggling. And prior to that, everybody loved it. It was like, packers, man, their best team in football. And I was like, it's only a couple of weeks here. And, you know, we kick the Lions to the curb. We. We kick the Chiefs to the curb. All of a sudden you see when Patrick Mahomes has a little bit of speed there to break things up. Big difference. But the questions, the questions with the Ravens, you're a bad defense. I don't think you're fixing that.

Dan Patrick (7:39)

That's not even. They're not even bad.

Dan Patrick (7:41)

They're embarrassing.

Dan Patrick (7:42)

They're Terry Des. They're embarrassing. They're embarrassingly bad.

Dan Patrick (7:45)

And you're watching and you're going, and you know, Lamar got hurt, but they were getting blown out before he got hurt. Now if he's going to be out for A couple of weeks and you start to look at this and I think, I think we were okay that they, they went toe to toe with Buffalo. They went toe to toe with the Lions. But you're seeing a pattern of how many points that they're giving up. And if Lamar is not, Lamar is going to have to be in a shootout every single week. Yeah.

Paulie (8:12)

Paul, The Ravens have the third ranked offense scoring in football. They're ranked last in the entire league in defense in both yards and scoring.

Dan Patrick (8:19)

Yeah. But I like what I saw with Kansas City. They, it just had a different vibe to them. Energetic. I think when, when you're watching the offense, it's like, okay, Xavier Worthing, come on down. And very few players in the game who were like him. Yes.

Todd (8:38)

Mark, you're also worried about Derrick Henry. Besides the first game of Buffalo, he just hasn't been himself and he's, it feels like he's got the football version of the yips. If you saw people doing the, the fumbling tactic with him.

Dan Patrick (8:52)

Yeah.

Todd (8:52)

Like the little drill. Because he's so worked up about his fumbling issues.

Dan Patrick (8:57)

They got to figure out how they're going to use him. Like, he didn't forget how to run, but. And he was on the sidelines. There was a third and one. And he's on the sidelines. Horrible call.

Dan Patrick (9:09)

And you have to have him out.

Dan Patrick (9:10)

There e. Even as a decoy.

Gerald McCoy (9:13)

Yeah.

Dan Patrick (9:14)

But when you give him eight carries, man, I don't know.

Paulie (9:19)

I like how upset we're all getting. Like, we're offended by what the, the defense is doing for the Ravens.

Dan Patrick (9:25)

Well, no, I'm upset with, for Derrick Henry because he's our guy.

Paulie (9:28)

But they're such a frustrating team because they're, they're really good.

Dan Patrick (9:31)

The Ravens used to lead with their defense. That's, that's why that.

Dan Patrick (9:36)

It is. It's egregious what that defense is doing to the offense.

Dan Patrick (9:40)

Yeah. Yeah, but that's one of those where you go, these guys look out of sync, they can't stop anybody. And I mean, this is a Kansas City offense that hasn't been great. And all of a sudden they look like, you know, circa 2019. Yes.

Todd (10:01)

Mark, have you seen situations on different football teams where one side of the ball is angry with the other because they're not holding up their end of the bargain?

Dan Patrick (10:09)

It happened with the Ravens with Trent Dilfer. They just, they went to him. Ray Lewis told me the story and Shannon Sharp, you know, echoed the same thing. He was like, hey, all you got to do is give us 10 point. You guys score 10 points, we'll win the game. That's all they were asking for. You just get 10 and we'll win. Yes.

Dan Patrick (10:30)

To be fair to the Ravens on defense, the injury situation.

Dan Patrick (10:33)

That's true.

Dan Patrick (10:34)

Is brutal.

Dan Patrick (10:35)

Yeah, Brutal.

Dan Patrick (10:36)

That's crisis level.

Dan Patrick (10:37)

Yeah. But everybody has, you know, it's hard to keep your team healthy. It is, you know, survival. It's attrition. When you and they want to add another game.

Gerald McCoy (10:49)

Yeah.

Dan Patrick (10:50)

Nothing to see here. Play like another game. Everybody gets another paycheck. All right, we'll get to your phone calls. Coming up, you got baseball starting tomorrow. It's like, boom. Here's baseball Europe over Ryder, over Team USA to win the Ryder Cup. We talked about that. Talked about some of the college football. Rick Newheiser will join us later on. We'll sort through some of the good and bad and ugly. Skyler in Burlington. Hi, Sky. What's on your mind today?

Caller (11:20)

What's up?

Caller (11:21)

Dan and I have a best of the weekend and also not headline that I think will make Todd proud. Okay, so best of the weekend, I was catching up on the podcast this weekend and after the car wreck of last week, I'd like to officially cast my vote for Todd for best and worst standout of the year. Okay, great content, but such a wild take for him to, you know, be stubborn about.

Dan Patrick (11:47)

Okay.

Caller (11:47)

And then worst of the weekend was how close the Yanks got to winning the division. I mean, instead of getting the buy and potentially home field advantage through the World Series, now we have to play the Sox in the best of three. And you know, they've had our number all year, so it's tough. And on the topic of the Giants impressive win, the mock headline, jackson Sharp Rookies Blowout Performance ends Giants skid.

Dan Patrick (12:17)

Okay, thank you. Thank you, Skyler. Chris in Syracuse. Hi, Chris. What's on your mind today?

Caller (12:26)

Hey, thanks, Dan. Hey, I got best and worse in the comment for you and my best, Dak Prescott. And I love that one play where he's lobby lobbying for the face mask as the play still going on. And I'm with you guys. A tie is so unsatisfactory and I wish the NFL just go back to the 15 minute overtime. I mean, in that overtime that gives you a third possession and if it was 15 minutes last night, that game had ended in a tie. And my worst, the fans rushing the field in that FSU Virginia game. Someone's eventually going to get hurt. And Dan, my Cincinnati Reds in the playoffs. I'm so excited and I'M sure you're going to be the only one listening that knows who this guy is. But the last two weeks, Dan, I've been for good luck. I've been rotating wearing my home and away Paul Householder jersey.

Dan Patrick (13:13)

So Paul Householder is Paul Householder's number 21, Chris, same as Hunter Green.

Caller (13:21)

Yeah, Dan, you are.

Dan Patrick (13:23)

You're good.

Caller (13:24)

And in a short series with the Reds pitching, they're going to be a tough out. And I'll tell you, for me, everybody loves Paul's skins, but I'll tell you, I'll take Hunter Green any day of the week.

Dan Patrick (13:33)

Oh. Oh, okay. Oh, Chris. Chris on fire. James in Virginia. Hi, James.

Caller (13:43)

Wow. Thank you for taking my call, brother. Happy Monday, dp. Damn it. Salute the commanders, man. Big time, all the time, every time. And you know, I got a lot, man, because it was a crazy weekend of sports.

Dan Patrick (13:54)

Wait, wait, wait a minute. Didn't you lose.

Caller (13:58)

Man? You know, the jury is still out on Washington, man. Jaden. Jaden gotta come back. But one thing about Washington, there's no.

Dan Patrick (14:05)

Jury out on if they won or lost. You lost.

Caller (14:10)

No, no, I'm just talking about. I can't make a decision. They're two and two. They got a tough stretch coming up. They're in the midst of a four out of five game road trip. I think after week nine, they don't leave the east coast but once the eastern time zone, but one time. So it's still a lot of a season left, man. I'm just gonna hold out hope that Jaden comes back and does what Jaden does, man, and just makes plays. But for me, man, it's got. It started with a baseball for me real quick. Dp, Like I said, I gotta. I got a lot for you, man. Amazing, man. Oh, that is just horrible. They had the best record in baseball in July. And to miss the playoffs especially, all they had to do is get a W on the last game and to get shut out. Horrible. I'll take the Yankees over the Cubs in the series, man. It's hard to pick against the Dodgers, but I don't know why this morning I felt the Cubbies were looking good, man. But the Bronx Bombers judge is going to get his ring, man. And in football, in college football, Ohio State, Oregon, Alabama, huge wins on the road, man. It is tough to win on the road in college football and those are massive victories. Lsu, man, let me down this weekend. Ole Miss, if they could run the ball like they ran the ball. 42 carries for 180 yards. I think 170 yards. The SEC is wide open. Shambless made plays all day. I don't know his story or where he came from, but being introduced to him was something amazing. But Nussmeier, I thought he was going to be the difference for lsu, but he was overthrowing guys and pushing guys out of bounds on deep balls. He just wasn't giving his players a shot. He's going to have to play better if LSU wants any chance of making a playoff. On to the NFL real quick. We talked about.

Dan Patrick (15:49)

I know. Come on, James.

Caller (15:52)

I just love sports, man. And I just thought, hey, all of a sudden The Chiefs are 2 and 2. You look up and the last thing I say, man, real quick, is the new kickoff rule is changing games in the NFL. Back in the day, man used to kick it through the end zone and get the ball on the 20 yard line. Now teams are getting the ball in the 40. You saw Seattle win the game at the last second. They just had a chance with a kick. That new kickoff rule is turning into something real. And you guys have a great one. Thanks for letting me run, man. You have a great day.

Dan Patrick (16:21)

Yeah. The kickoff has changed the game. Field possession position and you know, getting it to 35, 40 yard line. You only need a couple of first downs. You're in field goal range. The way these guys are kicking field goals now. Final results of the first hour poll question Seaton. And what are we going to go with? An hour two?

Caller (16:44)

Yeah.

Dan Patrick (16:45)

For the first hour we put up their worst weekend coaches edition. Kirby Smart, Brian Kelly. James Franklin, Sam Pittman.

Dan Patrick (16:53)

Well, Pittman lost his job. He did. So I would say, well, he's in.

Dan Patrick (16:58)

Third place right now.

Dan Patrick (17:00)

People might not know who he is and that he lost his job, but yeah, he got blown out by notary.

Dan Patrick (17:06)

And now James Franklin has 54% of that vote followed by Brian Kelly.

Dan Patrick (17:11)

I got Nittany lion fans are all over me here, like, hey, I'm just telling you, I don't, I could not care less one way or another. I'm just asking, is good, good enough at Penn State? And if it is, fine, and, and you're gonna have a winning record, you're gonna have double digit wins. But you know, this is a pattern. You're not winning big games, which is obviously. But he wouldn't keep his job. At these other schools, they, they would not allow that. In Michigan, Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, you wouldn't keep your job. That was the point I was trying to make. If you're 4 and 21 against ranked teams, that's a Habit. That's a pattern.

Dan Patrick (18:00)

That's now 56% of the vote.

Dan Patrick (18:02)

James Franklin. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

Todd (18:04)

But if you're a Penn State fan, wouldn't you take a bunch of 10 win seasons and maybe a couple of bad losses against really good teams instead of say, if I win eight games every year but I beat Michigan and Ohio State?

Dan Patrick (18:16)

Well, no, I want both. Why can't I have both?

Todd (18:19)

You're Penn State.

Dan Patrick (18:20)

You're Penn State.

Todd (18:22)

Maybe it's a generational thing. I don't remember Penn State being.

Dan Patrick (18:25)

Well, no. Even now he. Look at the talent that's come out of Penn State. Me sending guys to the NFL offensively and defensively. Yeah.

Paulie (18:36)

Paulie, there's a feel with James Franklin that the bigger the game, the more not saying he's going to blow it, but his program is going to blow it. And if you look at the SEC and lsu, LSU hasn't been to the playoffs, the college football playoffs, since 2019. It's not acceptable down there.

Dan Patrick (18:51)

Yeah.

Paulie (18:51)

Not acceptable.

Dan Patrick (18:53)

And it just feels tenuous with Brian Kelly at LSU for some reason. It just does. Whether, you know. Yes. Who do we have on SWAGU or something? He said that, you know, that he's rock solid down there at lsu. I'm like, okay, I don't, I don't have anybody telling me one way or another. It just feels weird because he's not one of theirs. It's like Kaylin DeBoer is not one of theirs. You know, hey, it was hot at U Dub and we. You got him and timing. But that's not a guy. That's not your guy. Your kind of coach. Same with Brian Kelly, accent and all. Yes, Marvin.

Todd (19:32)

Ed Ordron was their guy.

Dan Patrick (19:34)

He sounded like their guy. He. He became one of their guys. Yeah, I was pretty happy.

Dan Patrick (19:45)

Gotta get it all back.

Dan Patrick (19:47)

Edo character. Yeah. Paul.

Paulie (19:50)

Edo went 150 in 2019.

Dan Patrick (19:53)

Ed. Oh, he put the O15 and oh. See how it that Todd? Love that. Yeah, that voice.

Dan Patrick (20:01)

That's tough one.

Dan Patrick (20:06)

All right, let's take a break here. We'll come back Gerald McCoy. I'm gonna ask him to explain why we're getting all these kick. We have a record setting start so far in the NFL with the number of block punts, field goals and extra points. Why is that? We're back after this Dan Patrick Show.

I've been a Danette for many years. As a matter of fact, it's one of the longest relationships I've ever had in my life life longer than actually my wife. And one of the things I've learned in that time is that most athletes elevate performance through better nutrition. And here's the thing, your pets aren't much different. Your pets need quality protein to build lean muscle, balanced nutrition to maintain energy and proper hydration to support recovery and thrive regardless of their preferred form of exercise. That's why gold medalists like Simone Biles and Caleb Dressel, they trust new low for their own pets. And they understand that champion performance starts with what goes into their body. Nulo is loaded with premium protein that builds and maintains muscle. Their low carb formula prevents those midday crashes. So your pet stays in the game all day. And their mix and match options help you customize nutrition for your pet's specific needs, like a pro athlete's meal plan. The bottom line is champions don't leave performance to chance. And neither should you. My dogs, I have got three of them and they absolutely love new loads. You should visit nulo.com that's n u l o.com to fuel.

Dan Patrick (26:49)

Incredible 8773 DP show more phone calls. Best and worst of the weekend. What you saw that you liked, you didn't like. Mine was easy. I went to see Nate Bargazi, saw him at Madison Square Garden. He was great. He was very. His humor is very, very relatable. He'll give you a story, he'll give you a scenario and then you've either done it yourself or you know somebody who has been in a situation like that. But Jimmy Fallon warmed up for him. Nate's dad is a stand up comedian magician. He was also there as well. Packed house. I think he sold out the Garden three consecutive nights but entertaining. Got to meet him backstage, said hello to him and Fallon. Chris Rock was there. That's pretty good when Chris Rock comes out to watch your set and but very nice. The whole crew. If you get an opportunity, go see it. I brought my family there. I went to see him and family friendly. Yes Paulie.

Paulie (27:55)

I wonder how much tougher it is for comedians to Play a huge hall like that, like a monstrous setting.

Dan Patrick (28:03)

You know, they make it intimate. I remember when you two, they played, they had the big heart, like you could be in the heart. Like they had a. I forget what tour that was, but they would play these stadiums, but it felt intimate because they were sort of playing to that smaller group, but playing to the entire stadium. And you know, the, the stage is right in the middle of Madison Square Garden and he's walking around and so, yes, there are people all the way up in the rafters, but he's, he made it seem like he's just talking to you. And he's very, you know, his, his inflection, his voice, it doesn't vary. It's just very conversational. Something, you know, about going to McDonald's in a drive through. Boom. Everybody's been there before. You're talking about, you know, like your daughter having a sleepover and how it changed his life. But it's just simple things. But he has a, a wonderful way of getting humor out of something like that. Yes.

Dan Patrick (29:08)

That was the Elevation tour, which was for you too, which was off of the album. All that you can't leave behind.

Dan Patrick (29:14)

Yeah.

Dan Patrick (29:15)

So that was like early 2000, 2001.

Dan Patrick (29:17)

Ish. Yeah, but they made it, they made it feel intimate with that concert. Gerald McCoy, NFL Network analyst, former defensive tackle and six time Pro Bowler, joining us on the program. Good to see you again. Give me the science behind blocking field goals, punts, extra points. Because we're, we're at a historical rate so far. Yeah.

Gerald McCoy (29:41)

This is insane. First off, I think that, I think what we're seeing right now is we're seeing the importance of all three phases of the game. You know, we preach it inside the building. Offense, defense, special teams, and punt team, flipping the field, punt block, you know, having an opportunity to block the punt. We've seen it, unfortunately, with my Bucs yesterday kind of was a big switch and changing the game with us versus the Eagles. Then you got field goal protection, then you got field goal block. And what a lot of people don't know is we actually draw plays for these things. So it's whether it's right block, it's left block, it's middle block. There's different things. So when you go through the motions in practice, this is why the coaches, you know, like we, we so focused on, oh, well, we got these plays on offense, we got these players on defense. When we do special teams, the O line, D line is just like, okay, well, we just go, whatever. Well, when you take it serious. You see what can happen. And when you are kind of BSing through it, this is, these are the things that can happen. If you don't, if you, the end blocker on the end of field, go pro and you don't get your hand all the way out. You seen yesterday, they can knock your hand down and turn that corner on you. These are elite athletes. These are best athletes in the world. So if you're not taking this part seriously, then this is what can happen. But you see how much the third phase of the football could change the game. Man, this is, this is, this is insane what we seeing right now.

Dan Patrick (31:21)

And you know, it's. Maybe I'm trying to think of an analogy in another sport where this happens and then it changes the momentum. You know, whether it's a, a home run or a dunk or something, where it just feels like, oh, my God, they blocked the kick or so. I don't know.

Gerald McCoy (31:42)

Well, LeBron's block in the Finals versus Golden State, you know, they, if, if Andre Godala gets that layup and look and Junior Smith doesn't swim down, LeBron doesn't come do the chase down, then we never see the Kyrie shot. The game probably goes away. If, if Mano Ginobili hits those free throws versus Miami, you know, then we never see LeBron, Mr. 3 Chris Bosh tipping back to Ray Allen, who hit the historic three. You know, I think those are different examples of if this portion of the game, which is free throws or chase down block, you know, field goals and punts are really like. Because you sit and steal, the game stops. So that's similar to shooting free throws. You're sitting here. These free throws are crucial. So I need to make these free throws, you know what I'm saying? Or get a, you know, a timely block like what LeBron did. So I would, I would correlate it to situations like that.

Dan Patrick (32:45)

Should we settle for ties, have ties in the NFL during the regular season?

Gerald McCoy (32:49)

No, no, I don't like ties. I don't like ties at all.

Dan Patrick (32:52)

What would you do?

Gerald McCoy (32:54)

They need to try and. Well, shoot. College football is taking some of the NFL mode. We might as well do some of the stuff that they doing. Just go and put it on 25 and let's see what happened, you know, like. But we got to find a way to not end these games and ties, man, because ties just that, that, that don't work out.

Dan Patrick (33:15)

I think everybody was all in on the packers after what they did to the Lions. And then all of a Sudden you lose to the Browns and then you tie with always there, buddy.

Gerald McCoy (33:24)

Oh, I was not. Okay, well, I was not because it was two weeks and I kept saying, it's two weeks. And here's why I kept saying you can't go all in is because after two weeks, think about what took place. Okay? They had the. Micah comes in, it's like, oh, man. First off, this is already a playoff team. It was already top tier defense. They were 22nd in pressure rate. So you go out, you address a need, you bring in the guy who led the league in pressure since he stepped foot in the NFL. Of course your pass rush is going to be better. But what happened? They won two games that they were favored to win at home. Everybody's like, oh, look at what they're doing. Pay attention to what happened. They had a Sunday game, they played a Thursday game at home. They didn't have to travel. All they had to do is just go and roll into it with the regular operation. We hadn't seen them hit the road. We hadn't seen them travel. We hadn't seen anything. We hadn't seen them tested. So when people was like, oh, the packers are the best team right now. The packers are. I'm like, how they the best team? We haven't seen them do anything. How are they jumping the Eagles? How are they jumping Buffalo? How are they jumping all these people? And that's why I said we can't just put them above Philly. When we've seen Philly be tested, we haven't seen Green Bay be tested. For us to be saying they're the best, what happened as soon as they hit the road? They lost to Cleveland. Now we just seen them hit the road. I thought that they were going to blow the Cowboys out. I think most of America thought that this was going to be a blowout game. But we seen what happened. So this is why I always say you can't crown people super early. You got to let the season play out. I have a philosophy. You do not know who's who until about week nine of the season. Then you start seeing some consistent to see, okay, this is what they can do, this is what they can't do. Okay, we've seen that. This is kind of like. Because I remember one time we seen the Pittsburgh Steelers go 11 and oh, but everybody was like, I don't know. That's a kind of like a. That's a fluff 11 and oh, that's not a real 11 and no team. So, you know, you gotta let the season play out. But I, I haven't been sold on Green Bay after two weeks like most people were.

Dan Patrick (35:38)

What concerns you the most about the Ravens.

Gerald McCoy (35:42)

Defense? I know they've had injuries, but even with, even when they were healthy, you got to keep people out the end zone, man. And it doesn't matter how many because before yesterday they were averaging 37 points a game. 37 points. This is National Football League. If your offense is getting 37 points a game, you shouldn't be losing. That's just reality. But also offensively, when you pack the middle of the field, which is what Kansas City did, you pack the middle of the field, you take away all those crossing routes in the middle of the field for Lamar, he struggles to push the ball outside the numbers and make throws where he has to make throws outside the numbers. And that's all Kansas City did yesterday. They made him make throws outside the numbers. And then you get Xavier Worthy back and you score points. You can't depend, always depend on your offense to score points like this every day. Look at what the Philadelphia Eagles did. They are finding different ways to win. They won yesterday. The offense wasn't great, but what they do, they got a score on special teams and the defense was lights out. Your offense is not always going to give you 37 points. So the other phase of the game, other two phases of the game have to show up and defense is just, it's bad, man. It looks 30. They were giving up 30 points a game and yesterday was just even worse. So it just doesn't look good.

Dan Patrick (37:17)

Gerald McCoy, NFL Network analyst, You can catch NFL Network bringing you NFL game day kickoff at 7am Eastern. The Vikings and the Browns in London on NFL Network. Well, okay, given that the Ravens are banged up, not a good defensive team, how do we then look at the Chiefs? Because are the Chiefs that good or.

Gerald McCoy (37:40)

Yes, yes, they are.

Dan Patrick (37:42)

But the Ravens were that bad though, Gerald?

Gerald McCoy (37:45)

Yeah, but also okay, the Chiefs over the past three years have been, a lot of people say, carried by the defense, but as long as 15 is taking the snaps, they're good. As long as Andy Reid's calling the plays, they're good. We have to look at all the, the revolving door of the offensive line. Now they got the off of the line in place and the first three weeks, Patrick Mahomes, as great as he is, he's not Lamar Jackson. He can't be leading your team in rushing. He can't, he can't do that. What were they able to do yesterday? They're able to run the ball. One player, one player changed everything. They put Xavier Worthy back in the lineup and it opened up the entire office. They were able to do so many different things. When you go watch back and watch them with the field of Eagles, the Eagles were being overly aggressive with the Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers because they wasn't afraid of anybody getting open. They weren't afraid of getting beat deep downfield. So they were being overly aggressive. Where you bring David Worthy back and look at everything opens up. Okay, I understand it was the Baltimore Ravens defense, but it's not just about how you're seeing what you're seeing, it's how it's being done. Patrick Mahomes didn't look under duress. He didn't look like he was pressing get the ball out. Boom. Get the ball out here. Xavier Worthy here, get open, beat over the top. So now what they're going to do is they're going to get healthy and then they're going to get Rashid Rice back. And then this is where we start to see, okay, the defense is in place. That's one thing we haven't had to worry about with Kansas City. I would be worried about Kansas City if the defense was bad. The defense hasn't been bad. The defense has been in place. They just haven't been able to put up points like they normally do. Well now they're going to start scoring points and once they get their whole group back then we gonna start seeing the Kansas City. They're scaring everybody again. So I think Kansas City is legit. That's why I was never worried about them losing those couple of games because they lost to the Chargers who hit the ground running. Justin Herbert is coming into his own. I know he's struggling yesterday, but I still believe he's going to have a great season. They lost to the champs. Okay, then they won against New York. Obviously it was New York, but we see they not as bad as you think. We seen it yesterday. It was just who they had at quarterback but then they won yesterday at home. Now they're going to get healthy. I think can I believe that Kansas City is they going to get back to being a scary team?

Dan Patrick (40:24)

Is a rookies cadence at the line of scrimmage quarterback different? Like do they sound like rookies or sound young when they're calling out plays at the line of scrimmage?

Gerald McCoy (40:37)

I wouldn't say that they sell young more than it's not as complex. It's like there's no switch up. So Drew Brees used to Yellow 80 Yellow 80, yellow 80. He says, all right. He would switch it up and then he would. He would have different colors and then he would kill, kill, kill. He's doing a lot at the line, so you never know what's going to happen. Cam Newton, ready, white, 80, white. He never would snap right on. On that. He would switch. He would switch it up. Matt Ryan would switch his up. When you go against. He's in. That's why Peyton, they.

Dan Patrick (41:09)

Omaha.

Gerald McCoy (41:10)

Everybody thought the ball was coming. He said, omaha. No, it wasn't. So when you have a rookie, you know, after a few snaps, after you say this and he say this, the ball's coming because he's not. He has so much other things to worry about. He can't manipulate the snap count yet. Aaron Rodgers had a phenomenal snap count. They can manipulate the snap count because they've done so much other things for so long. The snap count is just something that they add to their repertoire and their tool bag. Rookies, you just. Especially if they. If you at home. Oh, it's easy. Rookies are the easiest people to jump to. Snap count. They're not changing nothing because they don't. It's not. It's not. It's too much going on up here. They trying to see, especially if your coverage is doing all this. And then if I know when I played, if I'm playing a rookie, their coaches told him, that guy right there, make sure you keep your eyes on him. So now I know he's not gonna switch his snap count because he's seeing all this, but he knows I'm sitting right here, too, and Miles Garrett is over there. No rookie is gonna look and see Miles Garrett and be thinking about, let me switch to snap cap. They gonna be thinking, all right, Miles is right here. Let me. But that's what. That's what Ricky's. So, you know, so that's the difference. It's not that they sound like rookies, is they're not going to manipulate the snap count like the vets will.

Dan Patrick (42:30)

How did Aaron Rodgers sound? What was his. What was his cadence?

Gerald McCoy (42:39)

Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers was Green 18. So when he was. When he would. When his was so aggressive that.

Todd (42:53)

You.

Gerald McCoy (42:53)

Lose sight of all the other things that's taking place, and that's why he caught so many people with their free play. He was phenomenal. What Aaron Rodgers is phenomenal at is catching people on the field with 12 men. He's great at catching people subbing. So that's what you got to be careful with him, is your subs if you're going to sub as soon as the play is over, you got to make sure you know who's coming in and who's coming out. You cannot be as getting off the field and then you just got to be patient, especially when they're at home. When they're at home is when he gives everybody. If you go back and look when he was in Green Bay, when they were at home is when he got most of those free plays because his snap count is so aggressive and it can catch you off guard. Russell Wilson actually has a, a very good hard count as well.

Dan Patrick (43:40)

What's it sound like?

Gerald McCoy (43:42)

It's just loud and aggressive like that.

Caller (43:46)

Dang. Calm down dog.

Gerald McCoy (43:48)

I've been a Danette for many years. As a matter of fact, it's one of the longest relationships I've ever had in my life. Life longer than actually my wife. And one of the things I've learned in that time is that most athletes elevate performance through better nutrition. And here's the thing. Your pets aren't much different. Your pets need quality protein to build lean muscle, balanced nutrition to maintain energy and proper hydration to support recovery and thrive regardless of their preferred form of exercise. That's why gold medalists like Simone Biles and Caleb Dressel they trust new low for their own pets and they understand that champion performance starts with what goes into their body. Nulo is loaded with premium protein that builds and maintains muscle Their low carb formula prevents those midday crashes. So your pet stays in the game all day and their mix and match options help you customize nutrition for your pet's specific needs, like a pro athlete's meal plan. The bottom line is champions don't leave performance to chance and neither should you. My dogs, I have got three of them and they absolutely love new loads.

Best and Worst of the Weekend let's go around the infield. Todd, I'll start with you. Best and Worst Best of the Weekend.

Todd (49:18)

Vanderbilt gets a 5535 win over Utah State. Sally with 321 yards, five TDs from Diego Pavia. They scored 70 points against Georgia State last week. First time the Commoners have scored 50 points in consecutive games in one hundred and ten years. Worst of the Weekend Just when we were starting to believe In USC after a 4 no start, they lose at the Buzzard. Illinois, a team who had just lost 6310 against Indiana Trojans, gave up over 500 yards. Couldn't keep the fighting alignment from marching downfield to set up the game winning field.

Dan Patrick (49:46)

Yeah, that was an exciting game. Back and forth Seaton My best of.

Dan Patrick (49:51)

The weekend Right now Christian Pulisic is on an absolute tear in Syria. He's got six goals and three assists through the first seven games of the season. AC Milan are in first largely in part or he certainly contributed a lot to that. So that's great to see heading into the World cup. We need a guy like him playing well. My Worst of the weekend Ben Johnson going into the halftime interview just super rude in his interview with the reporter there. Really unnecessarily rude.

Dan Patrick (50:20)

Yeah, I, I didn't see it actually happen, but there are a lot of clips with that he took offense to being asked about. His offense has struggled and it just, it was like an uncomfortable back and forth.

Dan Patrick (50:38)

It's like yeah, he's just like, you know daggers and it's like oh really? You think we're supposed to do something different?

Dan Patrick (50:44)

What would you do? Yeah, okay.

Dan Patrick (50:46)

Dude, chill out. Right?

Dan Patrick (50:47)

She's just doing her job and you know. Yeah that's the thing. You know, you're going to be asked a couple of questions like you agreed to this. They're going to ask you at halftime or, or pregame. But I mean, Ben, just be bland. Be bland. Johnson. Okay.

Dan Patrick (51:05)

Gotta make some changes.

Dan Patrick (51:06)

That's what we're going to figure out.

Dan Patrick (51:07)

All right, thank you, coach. See you later. That's it, dude.

Dan Patrick (51:10)

Yeah.

Dan Patrick (51:10)

Chill.

Dan Patrick (51:11)

Yeah. Paulie.

Paulie (51:12)

Ben Johnson did this in week one with the reporter. He just jumped her questions like before she could finish them, he started answering it. I think it's one of those things. First time being a head coach, you're in a coordinator forever. Not used to doing media and now you have to do media and there's no training tool for it. And it doesn't look good.

Dan Patrick (51:29)

Boo hoo hoo. Marvin.

Todd (51:33)

Best of the weekend Puka Nakua. 13 receptions, 170 yards and a touchdown as the Rams beat the previously undefeated Indianapolis Colts. My worst of the weekend. Our New York Mets, despite having the second highest payroll of $339 million, they missed the playoffs.

Best of the weekend 56, 13, Notre Dame over Arkansas. CJ Carr, 22, 33, 54 and four touchdowns. Breakout game for him. And the other Best of the weekend. I'll give you a year ago this guy was sitting there watching college football. Terry Francona, the manager of The Reds at 66 years old, squeaks him into the playoffs. It's no accident. He's fantastic.

Dan Patrick (52:46)

Yes, he is. He's a Hall of Famer. Ryan in Toledo. Hey, Ryan. Best and worst of the weekend. Hey, good morning, Dan.

Caller (52:52)

Thanks for taking my call. First time, long time. Five seven, a soft 180. Thank you for that. I had Best and worst of the weekend. Best of the weekend. The college football slate over the weekend was great. Overtime games, Penn State, Oregon, Tennessee, Mississippi State. Great games. But the worst the weekend of my Cowboys last night. That defense was. Was soft as well. Secondary couldn't, couldn't hold anything down. Dak is playing at an MVP level. Beat up o line. No CD Pickens looked great. So Just unfortunately, they couldn't come out with that game. Thank you.

Dan Patrick (53:28)

All right. Thank you, Rye, Keith and Chico. Welcome back, Keith.

Caller (53:33)

Hey, guys, I have a couple. Best and worst of the weekend. Lane Kiffin getting the win versus his daughter's boyfriend. Team has got to be a great feeling as a father. I mean, can you imagine them having a nice sit down dinner after all that? The other being the Detroit Lions. What a resurgence for them after a lousy opener. They go 30 and have not faltered since Hutchinson gets another strip sack. They look just fine without Ben Johnson. Worst of the weekend. What is going on with the Packers? They're everyone's favorite team for the first two weeks. What do you make of them now? Also for the Ravens, do you blame the offensive coordinator, the roster, or Lamar for their offensive struggles? Thanks, guys. Happy Monday.

Dan Patrick (54:10)

Well, the offense has been good. They've been scoring points. It's the defense that's been. When you go and. And this is. Bill Parcell's talked about this. I'd ask him about this. Years ago in the super bowl against Buffalo, he said, we wanted to make sure, you know, we wanted to slow down the game, we wanted to drain the clock, we wanted to run the football. So every time they got on the field, they knew they had to score. We put extra pressure on them, you know, with the Ravens, Lamar has to go out there thinking we got to score touchdowns, not field goals, touchdowns. Every single time, Dak, we have to go out there. Joe Burrow, when you know, he was healthy with the Bengals, that pressure, it's already tough enough. And now you're saying every one of these possessions, you have to go out there and score a touchdown. And you saw it. Ravens, you can't keep up that pace. None of these teams can keep up that pace. All right, final hour. We'll talk some college football with Rick Neuheisel. We'll talk to him about Penn State losing another game. Big game at home. More of your phone calls as well. Best and worst of the weekend. 877-3DP. Show operator Tyler sitting by. Take your phone calls on this Monday update. The poll results give you another one to think about in the final hour of the program. Todd is here. Marvin's here. Paulie, Satan, yours truly. The BRGs. Final hour on the Monday after this.
