You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio. It's hour two on this Friday, Dan and the Dan It's Dan Patrick Show. It's a meat Friday. We got white bean chicken chili, Jamaican beef patties. Who has it better than we do? No Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America, the official trad cards of the Dan Patrick Show. All right. We'll update the poll results. And we got a situation here with Jacksonville in Tampa. Does Jacksonville finally have their coach and exactly what happened? We'll retrace the last 48 hours with Rick Stroud coming up here in a moment. Clay Matthews will join us coming up a little bit later on this hour. Booger McFarland next hour. And Ohio State head coach Ryan Day will stop by as well. The point spreads stay the same. The Eagles getting six, giving six to the Commanders. And the Bills are getting one and a half against the Chiefs. Weather for both cities should be around the same. No snow, expected temperatures in the 30s. Obviously with the Chiefs game, it'll get a little colder than that as the evening progresses. That kickoff is at 6:30. The Commanders and the Eagles at 3 Eastern. 8, 7, 7, 3, DP show email address dpdanpatrick.com Twitter handle @DP show poll question for hour two and recap, hour one, if you can. Seaton. Yeah. Hour one we put up there. This one was from Marvin. The super bowl matchup you're rooting for. Your options are Bill's Eagles, Bill's Commanders, Chiefs Commanders, Chiefs, Eagles. You want to guess who people are rooting for? Commander's Bills. Commander's Bills right now has 57 of the vote. Yeah. You want to know the one that they're least looking forward to? Chief Seagulls. Chief Seagulls. Yeah. What the heck? Why am I surprised by that? I don't know. Those are two great teams. They are. But we want something fresh. One of them has a chance to go to win three in a row. I know, I know. We'll give you our most must win game of the weekend coming up a little bit later on. Which just to be clear, they've all been must win games for several weeks now. This is the most, most, must, must win, win even more than last week. Yes, yes, yes. There, there are coaches or players that this is the most must win game of the weekend may not be the team, it may be the person. So I'll have that for you. Coming up, Rick Stroud. We didn't think we'd ever talk to Rick Stroud again. When Tom Brady left, he retired. And here he is, Rick Stroud, the Bucks writer, NFL beat writer for the Tampa Bay Times. And here we are. Rick, tell me what happened over the last 48 hours with the all of a sudden object of desire, Liam Cohen.
Rick Stroud
Dan, we're the land of runaway brides, man. Bill Parcells did it twice. Chip Kelly did it once. So keep your receipt on the crystal stemware around here. But you know, look, Liam Cohen did a great job last year in his first season with the Bucks on offense, obviously. And so they didn't want to lose him. And they knew that he was had one interview with Jacksonville virtually. He was supposed to go up there on Wednesday. Bucks got him to agree to a really a record contract, one of the highest paid coordinators in football, something like four and a half million dollars a year, but it was contingent on him not going back to Jacksonville. And, and they thought he was going to come in there. There was some talk about a zoom call with him and all this. He didn't come in on Wednesday and they didn't hear from him from about 2:30 on Wednesday till about 5:00 on Thursday. He was, he was zero dark 30 on him. So I think they got a little suspicious. And finally he did call Todd Bowles around 5 o'clock on Thursday to let him know that his kid was in fact sick. He had been with him sometime that day. But oh, by the way, I'm going to look back into the Jacksonville situation when in fact, I think that deal was all but done. So they were pretty, pretty upset in Tampa Bay, as you can imagine. And now they need a new coordinator.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I know that people have brought up his son went to the hospital, but in the court, I mean, this just looks messy. Yeah, that he maybe his son, you know, obviously has something going through something. His wife just posted something an hour ago. But you still got on a plane and went to Jacksonville, correct?
Rick Stroud
Absolutely, he did. He didn't say. He did not tell the Bucks he was there. You know, I've talked to many of those guys over there. They're just very upset, you know, and it's just not the way you do business. He didn't have to sign the contract per se, and nothing was going to, you know, really prevent you from interviewing For a head coaching job, you can't block a guy to do that. But, you know, the whole interpersonal thing that, you know, just kind of flying up there without telling people he was gone and then not really being, you know, forthright. When he did tell Todd Bowles that, you know, he's kind of looking back into it, but at that point, I think he'd already been to Jacksonville. So the timeline is bad. You know, we're. It's like a few good Bucks, and we're trying to see. Check the tower logs and see, you know, when he left and all that stuff. It's just. It's just a mess. And the bottom line is the Bucks will now have their fourth offensive coordinator in as many years, and for Baker Mayfield, it might be eight. I'm not sure. I've lost count, but. So it affects them, obviously, next season.
Bobby Bones
What's Jacksonville getting?
Rick Stroud
Well, they're getting a guy that they better anchor down because he's only, you know, he's been to, like, five different places in the last five years. But he's a hell of a play caller. He really is. He did a nice job schematically. You know, he runs an offense that was similar to what he did in Los angeles with Sean McVay. He never called plays till he got to Tampa in the NFL. But he's a great teacher. And these young players, you saw them get better each week. Bucky Irving, Jalen McMillan, guys that had to step in when they lost Mike Evans, when they lost Chris Godwin for. For the season. And, you know, he just. He gives the quarterback answers, you know, in talking to Baker Mayfield, he had some success with Dave Canales the year before. He called him an optimist, bully, which is what, you know, sort of what he needed. Right. But from a schematic standpoint, play calling, Liam was at a different level. He could go to line of scrimmage, get him out of bad place. And you saw what Baker did, right? 41 touchdowns, 4,500 yards, 71%. I mean, he was. He was lights out, except for too many interceptions. But, you know, I just think that they're going to miss his ability to teach and develop. And really, you know, the schematics were so good for this football team.
Bobby Bones
Is he a head coach, though?
Rick Stroud
I don't know. You know, and the thing about that is, as great as he was as an offensive coordinator, you know, that's a different job. I mean, you know, there's going to be five things a day that you're not prepared to have to deal with, you know, anything from, you know, your girlfriend broke up with you, your mom sick, whatever it is. And so that's going to take away from his game planning. I assume he's going to continue to try to call plays, but if you've got Trevor Lawrence and you're trying to, you know, turn him around, you know, I think that he'll. He'll find a way to protect him if they can add some players on the offensive line, get a run game going. He's going to do great things offensively, but you know, that. That's, that's the job. The job is much different. You're addressing the entire team. You're setting the tone for the franchise. And from what I understand, Dan, he's going to have control over who they bring in there to, to help him with personnel. So this is not just the head coaching job, but I think in many ways he's going to be more involved in a lot of the player acquisitions and things like that. So it's a, It's a big leap.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, that's why I, you know, if you say, look, I don't want to come in under Trent balky, I get it. So you go back, they give you this extension, then all of a sudden they fired Trent Mulkey, why can't you just say to Tampa, look, things have changed here. They're letting me have total autonomy here. I'd be crazy not to pass, you know, to pass up this opportunity. What, would the Buccaneers have rescinded their offer? Like, would they have moved on from him?
Rick Stroud
I don't know that they would have. I mean, I think they would have hung in there and let him do what he wanted to do. You know, the offer was contingent on him not taking the second interview. I mean, I think, you know, possession is the biggest thing here, right? Don't let the guy out of the building. And so that was the Buck's intent with it. Like, we're going to make you the highest paid offensive coordinator, but you can't take that second interview. So the minute he decided to do that, he kind of voided what was going to be his new contract, which he never signed. So, you know, it was just. It was just a game of subterfuge. It just. It didn't make sense that you would kind of sneak around like this. I think that's what most people are upset about in the organization, and believe me, they're pretty upset about it, but they'll get over it's going to make those joint practices with The Jaguars really entertaining. Next next year, next summer.
Bobby Bones
Rick, as always, great to talk to you.
Rick Stroud
Good to see you, Dan.
Bobby Bones
Rick Strau, Buccaneers, NFL beat writer for Tampa Bay Times, co author of the Players Coach with Tom Moore from Bradshaw, Manning, Brady and Beyond, host of Sports Day Tampa Bay podcast. All right, a couple of phone calls in here. Got our poll question for hour two. Seton. Yeah, well, we had the one. I didn't know if we were going to go back to figuring out unlikable teams that had become likable. Okay. Because right now you kind of have the Eagles in there who, based on our poll results, seem unlikable. Okay. I don't really know why, though. It might be their fans. Okay. No offense. Maybe some.
Matt Castle
Maybe some.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah. Paulie, are the LA Dodgers entering that category or in that category with how they are overspending in comparison to the rest of baseball? The Yankees had that a generation ago. That's cooled. But the Dodgers feel like they're entering that, geez, these guys won't give anyone else a chance category. Do you care if people don't like you? If I'm a Dodger fan, I love it. Yeah. Like, you have to embrace this like Yankee fans did in a previous generation. There are dynasties where you just say, you're not going to like us. Deal with it. Like, I don't think that the Chiefs aren't apologizing for anything. Like, okay, you don't like us. So did the Patriots apologize? No. Now you might say, are the Dodgers ruining baseball? Now, that's a bigger topic. But that's a topic really for the commissioner. That's a topic for these owners of what kind of sport do you want to run? Is it. You can spend all this money, you can defer money. You've got all these billions of billions of dollars with the ownership group there. You got a pipeline to players in Japan. I mean, they're taking advantage of everything that they have, all of their assets. But why wouldn't you? Now, I may not like it because I want to see these other, like, I'd like for Paul Skeens to maybe pitch in a playoff. Gamers or the, you know, the, the Reds, you know, to be able to be in the postseason, you know, to see Dela Cruz on a big stage. Yeah, I would like to see that. But the odds are we'll see them on a big stage in another uniform. I'd like to be able to see teams had that opportunity. I mean, the NFL goes out of its way to make sure you have parity. They're trying their best. You have salary caps. They. They change the schedule. If you finish in first, your schedule's tougher. If you finish in last, it's easier. They go out of their way to keep the fan bases engaged. And that's the only thing I worry about, because the Dodgers are the Dodgers. Over under for next season. This is the. It might be the highest over under win total in recent history. Marvin?
Matt Castle
108 and a half.
Bobby Bones
Paul? 102 and a half. Todd?
Matt Castle
111 and a half.
Bobby Bones
Seaton Dang. 1 11. Paul, you said 102 and a half. Yeah. 103 and a half. Bloop. Yes, lad. 1 oh. 3 and a half. And according to DraftKings sportsbook history, that's the highest over under total for a team. Yeah. So the Dodgers are frustrating, but they're not dislikable because they're players. Everyone loves Ohtani. He's transfixing. He's fun. Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts. There's not dislikable people on their roster. Dave Roberts, their manager. Right. Love their uniforms. Gorgeous. Yeah. Yes. Todd. So when do they become as likable as they may be?
Matt Castle
The new evil empire.
Bobby Bones
Or are they already there and the.
Matt Castle
Yankees are in the rearview mirror in.
Bobby Bones
The last couple years? I think they're a likable empire. Like a dictator. Ish. Yeah. I. I don't know if you dislike. I mean, you may dislike the method to becoming an empire, but, I mean, they bought those rings. Yeah. Yeah. But the same with the Yankees. Like, yeah, Yankees wore that a lot. Yeah, that one a lot. Yeah. Yeah.
Matt Castle
Marv, can we stop with the. I know. See, it was making a joke, buying those rings. No one plays for free. Like, you get. You get what I'm saying?
Bobby Bones
So nobody plays plays for free. I checked that. He's right. Is that okay?
Matt Castle
Like when somebody says, oh, they bought those rings?
Bobby Bones
I mean, I would, but the union won't let me. So I just got to take this money.
Matt Castle
Like, what does that even mean?
Bobby Bones
It means you spent more than everybody else.
Matt Castle
So stupid. Go ahead.
Bobby Bones
But they did.
Matt Castle
But that you're supposed to.
Bobby Bones
Well, not everybody has the money. Make more money. They have a war chest of over $30 billion, I think. And if you can say to Ohtani, why don't you defer all of this money? Sure. I mean, how much does he need? And then you're going to say that to somebody else and somebody else, and you're all in it together. You got a chance to win, you got to play. You can play in Los Angeles. I don't know. I. They're just taking advantage of what is in front of them. They're not changing loopholes here. Now, you might say the deferred money might be, but still, that's business strategy. When the Yankees were spending more money than everybody else, they were doing it. And they were making money from the YES Network. They did something nobody else. And then everybody else tried to get their own network. The Yankees did a wonderful job with that. And whether you liked it or not, it was still must see tv. And they embraced being the evil empire. Yes, Todd.
Matt Castle
If it's legal, it's legal. It's like when a quarterback pretends to.
Bobby Bones
Slide, but then they reach for that extra yard and they're not quite out of bounds yet. Certain quarterbacks in the AFC title. No, no, I got it. Not sure what that has to do with. It's very cryptic, Todd. Who are you referencing? Anything that's legal is legal.
Matt Castle
You're allowed to do those. Even though the current President of the.
Bobby Bones
United States has admitted to certain tax loopholes. And people do whatever they can do as long as it's within the law. What happened? Where are we going? I'm sorry? Whether it's money or politics or anything, whatever.
Rick Stroud
If something.
Bobby Bones
Take it all the way. You could take it all the way to the line, whether you're a quarterback looking for that extra yard or whatever it is. Or you could spend your life, spend a hundred billion dollars on your team, then you go do it if you have it. Okay. All right. Yes. Yes, Paul. It's like a guy walking out of a store and not getting charged for dishes and plates. Exactly. Going back, it's not cheating or stealing, but it's cross. No, that was stealing. Yeah. That wasn't exactly a loophole that took advantage of that, was just straight up. We forgot to pay for this stuff. You and your wife. And then you, you know, screeched out of there. For a moment we considered going back and then we rationalized. Or at least I did by. These plates are probably so overpriced anyway. We're not getting any bargain. Yeah, but you broke the rules. You broke the rules. Technically, take them back. I didn't steal it. They gave it to me. How about I take a break? I just looked over and on my monitor, I see Clay Matthews there. I didn't grab the box and run out of the store. And all the lights went on and there was alarms going off. By the way, Clay Matthews looks like he's about 33. Frustrating. Yeah. 33. All right, let me take a break. We'll talk to Clay Matthews Jr III and we'll get to phone calls coming up as well. We're back after this.

Breaking down every everything you need to know about the NFL. We're talking about the MVP race. Is Josh Allen going to pull it out? Lamar Jackson? Can Saquon Barkley even break the rushing record?

Listen to Football Today on the iHeartRadio, Apple, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and you will be glad you did. Hope you could join us for the postseason run. More phone calls coming up. The most must win game of the weekend. I have that for you coming up as well. Ryan Day, Ohio State head coach in an hour from now. The Jags, they lost their possible head coach. Then they got their head coach and Liam Cohen going to the Jacksonville Jaguars after saying he wasn't going to go there, then went back to Tampa. Then they fired the gm, Trent Bulkey, and then he went back to Jacksonville. And now I guess he's agreed in principle to be their new head coach. So that leaves Cowboys, Raiders and the Saints. I don't know if anybody's looking for somebody who's still in the playoffs, but that might be the case. Except for the Cowboys might be hiring Brian Schottenheimer, although I guess they reached out to Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll was Clay Matthews coach at usc. In fact, Pete Carroll said the greatest mistake at SC was not starting you until your fourth game of your senior year. Is that correct?
Matt Castle
That's right.
Bobby Bones
Why did it take that long for him to realize what, what he had in you?
Matt Castle
They were, they us, we at the time had, you know, littered with five star recruits, blue chip athletes. In fact, my senior year, Everson Griffin came in and Pete had named him or he had said that Everson could be playing in the NFL as a freshman. So he was playing in front of me. So I think it was just. You don't see a walk on go from being a walk on to starting for the number one ranked defense in the country. So I think that was the ultimate hang up. And it took a loss to Oregon State on Thursday night for me to actually break the lineup. And if we had never lost, that was our only loss of the season.
Bobby Bones
I.
Matt Castle
Who knows what the history books, you know, who knows what would have happened.
Bobby Bones
Why did you walk on at usc?
Matt Castle
I had no offers. I had no offers. I lied to a few people when I got to SC because I wanted to fit in. They're like, oh, you know, where did you have office to class? I picked some lowly packed 10 schools. I said Arizona, Arizona State. I even ventured to say Idaho, but I didn't have any.
Bobby Bones
When did you realize you could play at a high level?
Matt Castle
It was probably my third year there. So my red shirt sophomore year, I started getting on some special teams and making some plays. Kickoff punt, just kind of had a knack for it and ended up winning special teams player of the year that year as well as the following two years. So after that year I felt like I could play. But you know, to say that I would have been a first round draft pick, I would have been lying to you.
Bobby Bones
You're a six time Pro Bowler and the packers all time sack leader. Has your name been mentioned for hall of Fame?
Matt Castle
I'd like to think so. So this year I was, I was shocked when my name wasn't one of the 170 guys or however that works. And I had my agent look into it because I thought I at least deserved the opportunity to be within that group of gentlemen. And apparently you have to have somebody nominate you. And the person who was the packers, you know, who heads the packers, wasn't aware that my five years since retiring was up. So I just got skipped over and he assured, he assured my representatives that next year that wouldn't be an issue. But that leads to another conversation which is, you know, the process of nominating people. I mean it's, it's, let's just say cooler heads, you know, prevail. Just because I was a little, I was a little hot about it.
Bobby Bones
Well, it's tricky though because it's, it should be if somebody says your name and then you go, yeah, hall of Famer, like, but it, but now we see it where you're not a Hall of Famer now, but in four years you might be a Hall of Famer. You didn't play any more games. So I don't know, I don't know how that worked. Like Sterling Sharp. I think Sterling Sharp's a Hall of Famer. I mean he, if we're going to put Terrell Davis in injury shortened career or Gail. I mean he was incredible. He won the triple Crown. I think maybe the first guy to win the receiving triple Crown.
Matt Castle
Yeah, Dan, we went through this with my dad as a matter of fact. So my dad, 19 year career, you know, four time Pro Bowler, just most games played by, by a linebacker might have the most tackles by a linebacker up there with seow, but he played for a small market in Cleveland for 16 years, never won a championship and wasn't, you know, big on, on promoting himself. And ultimately for the first 24 years, he would make, you know, the top 75. Top 25. And it wasn't until the last couple years when my sister really, I got to give her credit, she really started campaigning, politicking, where the last year, the 25th year, my father finished sixth. The voters came out, you know, they told her, confident, like, hey, he was just, he was in that top 10 but finished six. So like you had said, he didn't play any more games. He didn't do anything different within those 25 years since retiring in 96. Yet somehow he was, you know, a couple votes away from being enshrined into the, you know, the hall of Fame. But he didn't for, you know, the 20 years before that. It's, it's an odd process, but I do understand what you're saying. There's guys who are, you know, sure, doubt or excuse me, no doubt, sure fire hall of Famers and then there's those who, you know, kind of have to wait a little bit.
Bobby Bones
What, did it break your dad's heart?
Matt Castle
No, he's. He's always said he's at peace with his career and he means it, you know, and fortunately I got to model, you know, my game after his. And so when I got out of the game, we none of us ever, you know, we're always ushered out, you know, never on our own terms, very rarely. And so I think that has allowed not only myself not to make this about myself, but just watching him and how he left the game, so to speak, you know, conduct himself, really talking.
Bobby Bones
To Clay Matthews, super bowl champ with the packers, six time Pro Bowler, joining us on behalf of Colt. We'll get to that here in a moment. Last time you talked to Aaron Rodgers was.
Matt Castle
When we text every once in a while, I want to say it was, it was the latter part of this season, but it was nothing, nothing more than, you know, inside jokes and humor. I'm sure he needed that at that point in the season.
Bobby Bones
So it's not a conversation. It's not a close relationship.
Matt Castle
I mean, it's, it's close, but I mean, I'm not, I'm not going to ask him in the middle of the season or the latter parts of the season. Like, hey, what are you thinking for next year? Are you going to stick with the Jets? You going to the Vikings? I mean, what, you know, what's going on here, so I'm sure I'll find out like everybody else. But, you know, as we know, he's an enigma.
Bobby Bones
Was he that way, though, in Green Bay? We just, it wasn't put on, you know, a national stage for us.
Matt Castle
Well, when you say, was he that way, what do you, what are you referring to?
Bobby Bones
An enigma?
Matt Castle
Yeah. No, he was, yeah. Different. Indifference.
Bobby Bones
Not.
Matt Castle
I don't mean that. A negative connotation. He's always been different. I've always said, you know, you compare him to some of these other quarterbacks, the, these, the, I'm going to call them the rah rah guys. And I don't mean that in a negative way, but, you know, leaders of team who, you know, bring the huddle together. Drew Brees, the Peyton Mannings. I always compared him growing up in LA to Kobe. You know, if you wanted to be great and you wanted to be better, you would gravitate towards him and then he would bring you in. And that's why you saw the relationships he had with Jordy Nelson, Devonte Adams, Greg Jennings, you know, they were, they were elite at the time. And he was able to form that chemistry because those guys had such a strong bond.
Bobby Bones
So he, he led by example.
Matt Castle
He led by. Absolutely. He led by example. I mean, practice was so competitive, so much fun. I mean, he was trying to go at us. It wasn't this, you know, lovey dovey, you know, hey, you'll get him in the game. It was, we were going after each other.
Bobby Bones
But Kobe, there was a fear factor there. Like, Kobe wanted to crush you, even if you were his teammate. Like, you, I want you to be great.
Matt Castle
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Was Rogers like that?
Matt Castle
I mean, it's, it's a little different when you're dishing out the ball like, you know, like Aaron was to his receivers. But yeah, I think, you know, when is enough enough, is four MVPs enough? I'm sure he wanted five. And that's why I truly make that comparison to him, because I think he wants to crush you. Now, obviously we're on the same team, but in practice that's no different. And I'm sure, you know, watching him this year, you see those glimpses of, you know, what he has, and I don't know what that means moving forward. I thought it was. I thought for me, it was pretty telling when he walked off the field with devonte with his arm around him. And we remember when he walked off the field with Randall Cobb in Green Bay, what that meant. So we'll see if I'm reading into it too much, just being a fanboy or what's going to happen, but I'd love to.
Bobby Bones
You think he's going to play one more year?
Matt Castle
I think he should play one more year. Do I think he will? I don't know.
Bobby Bones
What would you do if Mahomes did what he does with the going to the sidelines or I'm going to slide. I might slide. I kind of sliding. So you hit him?
Matt Castle
Yeah, well, I did hit people in 2018. That's when the narrative changed. We're talking about Aaron Rodgers. It wasn't until Anthony Barr broke his collarbone. I want to say in 17, maybe 16, where the shift changed and you weren't allowed to hit the quarterback anymore. And, you know, some would argue that's a good thing for the sport, you know, keeping the Mahomes and the Josh Allens and Lamar Jacksons, but they've taken full advantage of it. And it's hard to. Man, it's hard to watch, you know, these quarterbacks, especially with the flopping too. These guys making 50, 60 million dollars, getting every call, you know, having so much success, and they're still. They're dancing around the sideline, they're sliding when they, you know, become a runner. So it is hard to watch. And I hope there's a, you know, an onus on changing that next year as far as.
Bobby Bones
Okay, what would you do? What would you do? No, create the rule.
Matt Castle
The rule is the refs need to stop calling those plays until the quarterbacks learn that it's. You're going to get hit. It's part of the game. It's a tough game. I mean, the type of hits I used to deliver on quarterbacks, first eight, nine years of my career versus the last two, that's how the game should be played. You're allowed one step, you give them a hit. If the quarterback gets the ball late, you got to let them know it's no different than guys coming across the middle. You had DBs who, who put hits. But now there's defensive, defenseless receivers, and you see quarterbacks. You saw that Josh Allen pass. I want to say in the, I don't know if it's the wild card or divisional game where, you know, he got his receiver a while or running back knocked out. It was, that's what's going to happen coming across the middle. But I'm old school in my thought. I know that has to change. I, I just think the, to answer your question, I think referees need to keep, you know, the flags in their pocket unless it's truly egregious. And that leads to a separate conversation about referees.
Bobby Bones
Did you ever have a sack or a hit on a quarterback where you felt bad? Where I felt bad about it?
Matt Castle
Never. Never. Although, no, I changed. I'm sorry. I thought about that. I didn't have a sack, but I hit Brian Hoyer one time and I broke his arm, I broke his forearm and I met him years later and I apologize. I felt, I never want to injure anybody. I know everybody says that, but truly I felt bad about that.
Bobby Bones
But how do you apologize if it's part of the game?
Matt Castle
Oh, well, I didn't apologize at the time, but when you see him face to face and then you kind of remove the shield, the mask, so to speak, there's a, you know, some humility and a human element to it. But no, I didn't apologize during the game. It wasn't like, yeah, I got him out of the game, but, you know, you never want to hurt anybody.
Bobby Bones
I keep saying that somebody's going to hit Mahomes and they're going to take the penalty, they'll take the fine. Like at some point that's going to happen here. I don't, I don't like saying that. But the reality is somebody will eventually say, this has to stop.
Matt Castle
I, you're right, Dan. This might, I don't even know. Yeah. So I'm debating on whether or not I tell you this, but in the, the two. But I will. 2014 NFC championship game against Seattle, Russell Wilson threw an interception. And I, this was right around the time they were, you know, these crack back hits and stuff. And I tried, I tried to give him everything I had and fortunately he stuck it out. That's when he drank that bubbly water that got rid of whatever head injury he had. But you're right, Abs, that is, that is what's going to happen.
Bobby Bones
So you went out of your way. You were, you were trying to take his head off.
Matt Castle
I didn't go out of my way to go get him. You'll see he was naturally in the way. He was trying to make the Tackle. But I wasn't. I wasn't gonna. Because he was a quarterback. I wasn't gonna put my hands up. I was trying to put a hit on him. That's what we're supposed to do.
Bobby Bones
I know, I know. Why are you yelling at me?
Matt Castle
No, I'm. I. You're right. I'm sorry. I'm just. I'm taking this out on you, but there's this narrative now that you're a dirty player. If you hit a quarterback, you know, just because the rules have changed so much to protect them.
Bobby Bones
Do you have a tackling dummy at the house? Like, do you need to hit somebody?
Matt Castle
They're my kids. My kids. Yeah, I tackle them, I wrestle with them. We don't hit them. We tackle them. We wrestle.
Bobby Bones
When's the last time you hit somebody?
Matt Castle
Well, I didn't get my workout in this morning, but it's been a while. I help out with my 5 year olds flag football team. We won the championship this year.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Yeah, I like it. Does he have a ponytail yet?
Matt Castle
No, no ponytail. He's high and tight. He goes to a private school, so they frown on that.
Bobby Bones
All right, tell me, but you. If he wanted a ponytail, you'd say, all right.
Matt Castle
Yeah. In fact, I'd probably petition the school and say, ponytails. Why? Dan Patrick has me on.
Bobby Bones
Dude, you look like you're like in your mid-30s.
Matt Castle
It's that strong hairline.
Bobby Bones
No, you look. You look like you could play.
Matt Castle
Well, listen, I mean, not to. I felt like I could still play after year 11 with the Rams, but, you know, this is a separate conversation. I was ready to move on, to be a dad. It was my second, you know, second chapter, third chat. Whatever it was in life, I was ready to be a dad. But I felt like I could still play. I don't know about right now, but I appreciate the compliment.
Bobby Bones
All right, tell us what you're doing with safetyimpactaward.com.
Matt Castle
Yeah. So I appreciate you first giving me the opportunity to talk about this. It's something that means a great deal to me, having a young family being an outdoorsman and a firearm enthusiast. But ultimately, I teamed up with Glock this year to launch the Safety Impact Award, which highlights the critical mission of educating everybody on safe and responsible firearm ownership. Together, we're honoring nonprofit organizations that have shown an exceptional commitment to safety within the firearm industry. And it's not just me, it's hall of famer Joe Thomas, super bowl champions, Adam Venateri, Fletcher Cox, we're all supporting our respective nonprofits I am supporting project Child Safe. And what we're doing is we're asking everybody to go to safetyimpactaward.com to vote. We're competing against one another for our non profit and colt will donate $1 for every vote received for the winning charity. And on top of that, when you do register to vote, you have an opportunity to win lots of prizes, money get entered. I want to get this right into the big game safety sweepstakes, where if there's a safety during the super bowl, fans have an opportunity to win up to $100,000. So like I said, it's. It's something close to me, you know, like I said, having firearms myself, having a young family. And I encourage everybody to go to safetyimpactaward.com great to talk to you again.
Bobby Bones
Hope you're doing well and we'll work on that hall of Fame stuff.
Matt Castle
Hey, I appreciate it, Dan. Thanks for having me on. Always a pleasure.
Bobby Bones
Thank you, buddy. We'll take a break. Oh, no. Can't take a break. What? Paul, emergency. Fill in the blank, Dan. NFL News game. We have to do this quickly. Okay, here's the thing from Adam Schefter sources. The Raiders and Blank are aiming to work out a deal to make him the next head coach. The Raiders and Blank. Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll's correct. What? Dang. What? Let me take a break. I should bring back. I should bring back Clay Matthews to asking Pete Carroll going to the Raiders. All right, take a break. Back after this. Be sure to catch the live edition of the Dan Patrick show, weekdays at 9am Eastern, 6am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio in the iHeartRadio app. Hey, it's Bobby Bones.

That was Pete Carroll and the Raiders are in conversations about Pete taking over as the head coach of the Raiders. Is there an update, Paulie? Yeah. Multiple reports from multiple insiders. Rap Sheet, Pelissero Schefter. Pete Carroll and the Raiders now have reached an agreement. A three year deal with a fourth year option to become the Raiders head coach. I like it. He's a proven commodity. Absolutely. And now I know that people will say, well, his age, what, you know, what kind of stability is this? The NFL is year to year. That's the way I would view. I'm not looking at this. It's just like Bill Belichick at North Carolina. I don't think I'd sit there and go, in five years, he's still going to be head coach at North Carolina. This is really good. Are the Raiders better today than they were yesterday? And the answer is yes. Maybe they bring in Sam Darnold. Maybe it's a USC reunion there with Pete and Sam. You know, Brady is going to turn this thing around or he's going to try because he's the one running the show. You bring in Pete Carroll. I like that. Yeah. Marvin.
Matt Castle
And you've talked about this before, you and Paulie. Relevance is a big thing. This makes them relevant because right before this, they were in no man's land, which is not where you want to be. They were, like, on par with the Titans, almost.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I kind of feel like. Yeah, like more than anything, it's stability. It's not somebody new. It's not somebody who hasn't done this before. It's not somebody who's unproven. It's a dude who knows exactly how to run an organization. He knows exactly how to fix things. He knows exactly how to get going in the right direction. Let's get some stability for a couple of years and set up the next guy with the solid foundation. I agree. I think that's great. I think it's a great hire. And when the Bears were looking at him, I thought I. If you said I could have Pete Carroll or Ben Johnson, I said I would take Pete Carroll. I've seen him do this. I don't know if Ben can do it. I know that everybody talks glowingly about it. I want somebody who is a proven commodity, and I don't know if there is a downside. He's got the energy of a 42 year old, 32 year old. That won't be an issue. Yes, Marv, is Pete Carroll a Hall of Famer? Yeah. Okay, well, the Football hall of Fame, if I'm combining USC with Seattle, but this is about the Pro Football hall of Fame, so I don't know. If he had won the other super bowl then probably. Yeah. Paulie, the Raiders weight room in the morning. There's Brady over there in one corner, Pete Carroll in the other. Using the bands possible poll question, who looks younger for their age? Pete Carroll, Tom Brady. I don't think Pete's trying as hard to look younger as Thomas. Doing it more. Yeah, naturally. Yeah, organically. Organically. Pete looks good. He looks good. I'll be chewing that gum on the sidelines. We'll Talk to Booger McFarlane, top of the hour and see what he thinks of this. Michael in Oregon. Hi, Mike. What's on your mind today? Hey, D.P. how's it going? Good. I. I have a little something for you. So my. My dad was a huge fan of yours and he was actually deaf and always wanted to talk to you, but obviously couldn't. If you guys could give me about 10 minutes of a moment of silence, I'd love to give you a little sign language to say that he loves you and appreciate what you did. Well, thank you, Michael. Thank you. Anything else, Michael? Oh, that was it. Oh, okay. Okay. I didn't know if you were doing sign language, but I can't see you, so I didn't know. Maybe. Maybe we'll have him zoom in. He could do the sign language. Yes, Todd. I think he said a 10 minute moment of silence, which would have been very difficult for a talk show to go that long. That would be. That would be yes, Paulie. Back in the day, Pete Carroll and Jim Harbaugh didn't get along too well back in the college days. Now they're back in the same conference. So Reed Harbaugh, Sean Payton, Pete Carroll. How about that? You got hall of Famers in there. Dang, that's impressive. Phil in Iowa. Hi, Phil. What's on your mind? Hey, what up, DP and a soft 132 with the spirit of the Lord blessing today's show. I actually have a small, small prayer for Buddha and everybody rooting against Kansas City, that it'll help them get through the 50, 50 calls that Kansas City gets. Something tells me a small portion of your audience already heard this in rehab, but it goes, God grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. And when Pat Mahomes hit Travis kelsey for a 27 yard touchdown bomb, just remember that a wise man once said, you can't stop him. You can only hope to contain him. All right, well, thank you. Thank you, Phil. Yeah. Yeah. We opened up the show talking religion. I'm not sure why we were talking church.
Matt Castle
It was my.
Bobby Bones
Oh, that's right. Marvin left his microphone open and it reminded me, like black churches where you kind of follow along with the sermon and then you're like, you're very joyous.
Matt Castle
What God has done for you in your life.
Bobby Bones
But if you go into a Catholic church, then we're kind of quiet.
Matt Castle
That's the most noise I heard.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. We'll play the most must win game of the weekend coming up. And Ryan Day will join us coming up in about 30 minutes from now. And Booger McFarland, top of the hour. The big news there. Pete Carroll back in the NFL, head coach of the Raiders. I love it. Now they just need a quarterback there. How about Pete Carroll, Russell Wilson reunited? How? Aaron Rodgers? I don't know. We'll talk to Booger, update the poll results. Come on, Russ. Come on, lad. You got anything for him? Yeah, dude, I'm just checking. Okay. All right. And which super bowl matchup are you rooting for? Bill's V Commanders right now has 57% of that vote. Yeah, this is wishful prediction. That's what it is. Just people are hoping. They're really hoping the Bills win and then the Commanders be a great, great fun story that continues to roll. Final hour on the way on this meet Friday. Glad you're part of the program. The minister of humor, Fritzi Seaton, Marv Paulie, yours truly, and the BRGs back after this. Hey, it's Bobby Bones.
