Speaker 1 (1m 3s): .
Speaker 0 (1m 35s): Oh, welcome everyone to the Sports. Gambling Podcast. I’m Shawn stacking them on a screen with my partner in picks Ryan. Real money. Kramer. What’s happening in Kramer? I mean it, it’s a fabulous day in the neighborhood. Sean, the NFL has,
Speaker 2 (1m 52s): they released a schedule and prime job hooked ball, third man, the moon journey and this comi day.
Speaker 0 (2m 0s): AK the database.
Speaker 3 (2m 2s):
Speaker 0 (2m 6s): I just like to listen to that. Sometimes I get caught up in my own name and my ego, everything. You know what I mean? Guys, call me coming out. How are you guys doing? Doing great. We just wrapped up a night, one of Week to have Madden MAYhem and we uh, we also had an awesome interview earlier today with Jeff Blake. We’ll be getting to that later on. The podcast, former ECU, former ECU and Bengals quarterback, 10 tickets punched for the sweet 16 and Madden MAYhem six more to go.
Speaker 2 (2m 39s): Yeah, he’s one of those guys who will get penetration.
Speaker 0 (2m 42s): But we got to talk about the NFL schedule at trapped tonight. And as we’re taping this, everyone was leaking out different things. Some. Some of the schedule leaks were wrong. We really should just start our own NFL schedule and there’s no repercussions if you leek the wrong thing. Clayton used to be a reliable, I feel like you know what a John Clayton with the big snafoos sane, all the AFC teams will play. The NFC team’s for the first four weeks of the season. You get to see the schedule. Of course, that’s not the case. Who’s giving him that bad Intel?
That’s what I want to know. Then everyone, a Adam shifter at a tweet, like they’re doing a three hour release show and it’ll bring hope and everyone got really mad. I liked that. He said bring hope because a lot of these like, Oh, what you need that to bring you hope? Yes, I do. I need to think about football. Okay. There’s portions of my day where I’m not a good mood. I’m not happy if you have a shitty job, you know what keeps you going? You know what makes you feel good? Knowing that there’s going to be football on Sunday and knowing what the schedule is going to be already.
You see the 16 games? Okay. Are they 12 and four will they be 11 to five seven and nine if they have a catastrophic injury, let me daydream. Let me think about the future. That’s a definition of hope. I feel like Theismann painted the picture saying like, look, we all had this, this virus come and fuck up our lives. Right? And he’s like, the NFL is going to lead us back. You know what I mean? So who better than the national football league to say, you know what, we’re not going to give you an altered schedule. Hey, maybe we’ll change it. But were the NFL, Hey, we’re not really up for changing things.
If anything, they hold on to things for way too long. Much like Joe Theismann held on to the one bar face. Miss stubbornly said, I’m not going to change just for my own personal health. And the NFL has the same. Exactly. Exactly. And for and for that, I bumped no more. No more Elway Brady talk. It’s Theismann Brady talk. All right. If you, if you offered me games, opening tickets to opening night NFL, I’d be there 100% I would be there to take my chance. I’d wear a mask.
I was telling my buddy, Justin and I go shark tank invention, come up with a mask that also incorporates a straw so guys can go to the games and still get drunk as fuck without taking their mask off. I think sharks, I’m presenting that to you. This is a million dollar idea. Their brand and of course with team logos, maybe a little SGP in there. And speaking of which, we got our own SGP masks. Go to Sports Gambling, podcast.com/ and grab a mask. Any proceeds that we get from the mass, go to charity. If you go to a Raiders game, I’m going to be wearing a mask anyway, right?
I mean, yeah, but that’s like the rod, the liquor store on, on the way to the game to grabbed the, grab some chips off the craps table, make a run for the stadium. Let’s get to it. Let’s highlight some of the interesting stuff. Uh, in the 2020 ad NFL schedule. But before we do, Oh,
Speaker 4 (5m 33s): I was, I was teasing something off, but let’s get to this first. Sorry for him or you look, you were a drift over there and get it going back. Yes, of course.

Speaker 5 (6m 43s): Sean couple nuggets. Of course. We always like to call out which teams got the prime time. Love. Yeah, the pats, the Ravens, the Niners and the bucks all five times. Sean, the city of Tampa Bay, Tom Brady comes to town. Tampa Bray. You mean they now can enjoy the beach nine times during the season with games at four 25 or in prime time? I look this, uh, I would say this about the schedule.
A couple of things I noticed, I also noticed the giants were given a bunch of horse shit. Like, Oh gee, like they, did you guys get any prime time games? I didn’t. I didn’t look through the giants. Oh, you played the Eagles Thursday night. The books are one of the Eagles.
Speaker 0 (7m 33s): We’ve got the money and they got them on it. The only reason you’re playing on prime time is because you’re playing on their big market or interesting.
Speaker 5 (7m 40s): Yes. That makes sense.
Speaker 0 (7m 42s): I feel like though, you know, I understand there’s a Brady buzz in Tampa, but it’s not going to out shine Minshew mania guys.
Speaker 5 (7m 50s): I mean they are not, they’re not going to tank. They’re going to accidentally win a couple of games. I think Doug maroon doesn’t strike me as the kind of guy who tanks. Sean, we were discussing this earlier, I believe on the Madden broadcast, but the Rams and chargers both play immediately at home. Yeah. That schedule better be done or that stadium better be done by the stadium being done. I think for LA, I don’t think their stadium happens on time and again, maybe the season gets pushed back and that buys them some time.
I’m guessing that the LA stadium cause California bunch of a, you know, posters,
Speaker 0 (8m 29s): a bunch of a grapefruit eaten soy boys there. Uh, and I had a great fruit today. Guilty as charged. It was delicious. How’s your decaf tea? One of my voice is hoarse for calling back to back games and TJ and madness and drinking a ton of liquor. So yeah, I need some soothing herbal tea you to get through this podcast.
Speaker 5 (8m 47s): I think the LA stadium, not ready to go, but the Vegas Raiders, Las Vegas Raiders, I think that one will be open on time that that mayor
Speaker 0 (8m 56s): is all she’s ready to go. They don’t, they’re ready to open it now Kramer, we normally go out for the first weekend in NFL season out to Las Vegas. Do we make it the second week? Because that’s when the Raiders make their home debut. Monday night football, so we can spend all Sunday watching the games and me at the sports book and then Monday night go to the debut of the Vegas Raiders. I am in. If you guys do that, I’ll sign up right now. This is a difficult decision because I, of course I’m also out there for the first weekend because of my fantasy, my fantasy football, right.
Desire is calling. You have your FFPC live drafts. I’m looking at at the tickets, the tickets are for that opening game in Las Vegas stadium at a lower level thousand bucks, which is insane. But I think we, I think we were, I think it’s a better plan. We, we go out Week One like we always do and then we just grabbed the private jet. Okay. That’s why after the game wanted to fly up to Oakland and just take that shuttle over to the stadium and watch them for a game.
Then they just go right home. We can achieve the same thing. It’s just Vegas instead of, and the airport has casinos, although we probably should stay the night just to be safe and maybe if we get on a heater like I, that’s what I mean. Like I’ve been on over to MyBookie dot. Agee blackjack table and played a couple of hands during one of the half times of, uh, of Madden MAYhem uh, Thanksgiving day again, all shout out to the NFL. Really. It was neck and neck, Thanksgiving and Christmas for the best holiday.
But when they decided to add that third late game, who is the third late game about to read it? It’s a triple header as always. Texans at Lines for the game. So much disrespectful. A bunch of, I don’t like that one. That one of the lions always get that shit. Nine 30 kicks tradition. What they should. If the, they should do that though, but just give them a classic team. Like the bears are the Vikings are the, you know the intro conference. I like the Texans. They fucked up my Madden MAYhem then the afternoon game you get Cowboys, Indians, Washington.
That’s a Dallas should happen every year. That’s a, that’s a fun, very Thanksgiving themed. There was a rumor that the Eagles were going to play the Cowboys on Thanksgiving and I was excited for it. But it’s a lot of pressure cause there’s a chance of ruins Thanksgiving and I become a, a huge asshole. So the ladies had once the once the night game then getting to that next ride, doing these in order the night game. Baltimore Ravens at Steelers. That’s what I’m talking about though.
So they just needed two of the three. It’s all great matches. But if they just replaced that with Lyons Packers then it’s perfect. Right? They can run that and even bears Packers. Yeah. Lines get their tray. They get their tradition. But I’m just saying lying like a divisional
Speaker 5 (11m 54s): matchup and then like every one is a divisional matchup. And then the Steelers Raven’s can always play that Knight game. Cause I would much rather see that than like saints Falcons. Although Sean, as you know, that was a great time off the grid ever year. Yeah. So I got the joy of coming back a day, two and a half later and seeing if I covered, where are you going this year? You know, probably somewhere in the desert, somewhere away from people. I’ve had an insane run on Thanksgiving a day as far as picking games, going against a spread.
I went three and Oh last year. And including a Moneyline play by the bills, upsetting the Cowboys. Awesome time. Even hit like a three team parlay. And it was a lot of pressure because my, uh, father-in-law, we were visiting him in Las Vegas and he does, he’s not a huge gamble or a football guy. So he took all my picks and all my bets and I’m like watching the game, sweating out the bets with him. And uh, he cashed so that, that always feels good. It takes the pressure off. We actually get some Christmas day games.
In fact, a saints, they’re gonna play on Christmas day in the Superdome against the Vikings for 30 kick. I think that’s probably East coast of game and it’s the, uh, it’s the first NFL game on a Friday since 2009. I think that was like a weird, again, maybe like a Christmas, new year’s Eve type thing. I like it. I mean they are the, those teams admit in the playoffs before with some classic games. So I’m a, I’m, I’m, I think that’s one of the better match-ups so far. As far as the Eagles, a Eagles schedule feel pretty good about it.
That Week nine by, that’s always key. Uh, I’m looking forward to the game in Lambeau. So it’s, I mean we’ve had a good, we’ve got a decent run out of there. They go to the Lambo December six. I like, they don’t have three a road games in a row. They’ve had that previously. That’s always a huge pain in the ass. Sean, can we circle games? Sure. Week 15, Miami host’s, the new England Patriots. Well that’s also a week one. We have a baby fucking with dolphins go up there a week.
No, I think that’s a compelling match. I’m just saying wait for new England to go down there in the heat that whatever that number is. Two is going to be catching points, but I mean I agree with you. That’s got great potential, but you’re trying to minimize my grade point Week One though, having to go against a guy with like the legendary record against rookie quarterbacks. I think it’s a very compelling story. You know what else is compelling story? The last time the Eagles opened up a season in Washington like they do in 2020 I don’t know if you remember right, but I want to a hundred thousand dollars on draft Kings or lost $800,000 depending on your look at it and the Eagles toll scenes back in the NFL.
Yes. And Eagles. One of the super bowl Toesy and I’m coming for you as soon as you get on Twitter look at, I’m trying to track him down again. If anyone. I think now that he had, he must have a Cowboy’s email address. Yeah, we got it to do here to the contact. Uh, I mean, yeah, we got Joe Theismann on. You don’t think we can get Scott come on. Are you kidding me man? Giant second, second, hardest schedule if you, uh, if you’re using when the wind totals.
Okay. Belkin’s the toughest, uh, the Colts have the easiest schedule. And if you see this graphic, I’m guessing this comes from Warren sharp or something like that. It’s not even close to the Colts. If you, if you use wind total as the metric to determine if a team is a harder, easy, you rank them that way. The Colts have the easiest and I and Colby can see this. The Colts have the easiest by a, a just an absolutely tremendous margin. Is it me or do I feel like the Colts always have an easy schedule?
Maybe cause the divisions just tra. I mean it must be a, a divisional matchup thing because Tennessee is right there at number two. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like, of course Kansas city Texans, that’s the opening Thursday night game. Um, yeah, I don’t know the texts and seemed to get a lot of prime time games. Would it be nice if they had Deandra Atkins there, but instead David Johnson, I liked David man. But yeah, it’s a bad trade Patriots. A still seeing a, a decent amount of primetime games with even without Brady.
They weak two at Seattle’s. Didn’t fee for a man Week nine at the, at the New York jets week 10 versus the Ravens 14 versus the Rams 16 versus the bills. Like maybe those games towards the end they get flexed out if there’s Sunday night, but a, yeah, I don’t know. Colby, what are they any, any big thoughts on the, uh, on the schedule really so far? Uh, well, I mean, I can tell you a week one, you know, Brady at new Orleans, uh, I think it was a very going to be with grant coming back and everything.
I think that one stood out when I went through the schedule is like, Oh, and I think also you get a rematch of half of the Texans and chiefs we shot. Do you remember? We were in Vegas, weren’t the saints 10 point favorites against someone last year? Week One and they got upset outright. It was a Falcons. Oh, was the box probably write the book of the box. It’s magic. It’s magic. We could see that again. Well I don’t know if the soon to be that high, but I mean to two chiefs Texans a rematch of that playoff game or with the Texas wear a black 21 nothing right at 20 for nothing.
I think see that potentially come on, I just saw the Redskins beat writers or the, I’m sorry, the Cowboys beat writers. Cowboys get cushy start. They start to love. I love how cocky the Cowboys starts out on the road against the Rams in the new stadium. Like supposedly how many, if that stadium opens as scheduled Week One what is the split there for the fan base? It’s going to be a home game for the Cowboys. Yeah, and week two is when the are supposed to open that stadium against the chiefs.
Oh man, dude, is there one like 70 30 if you’re, if you’re Kansas city, the NFL. Just no favors. You just won the super bowl. Now Week to two trip to LA to see a new stadium. Everyone from Kansas city’s gonna, they gonna take one van and just show up. You would think that the NFL has been trying to get a job, you know LA back on the map on football wise you would think they put Jacksonville at at one of the LA times. Give them a shot of the game. Can we talk about the spreads? What’s the, what are we doing? We’re talking about some messing around playing Dungeons and dragons.
You know we’re teasing it. We’re just massage in it but let’s just, let’s just go in there and I’m looking, I got this great graphic and for what do you have? What Lines do you have up in front of you? Well right now the only last week he only lives, we acknowledge as the ones over at MyBookie dot. AIG other non non reputable Sports books have some lines and it’s fun. Let’s do just a rapid fire. Week One again, the pixel probably changed, but just probably games, baby games to get the pictures and run us through. Kramer. What do we got? I got to, I got to pull up the numbers.
Um, look. How’s your dexterity over there? We’ll do, but Week One uh, what’s up? Alright, I’m searching hard. I’m searching. Really. I have it. I’ll, I’ll text it to you right now. Kramer, how do you not, do you know how to use good? Yeah, I know what I use to Google. Alright, I’ll send it to you for sending over in text. Pull that right up. There’s some, uh, I mean, just some interesting numbers. Giant Steelers. Week One Daniel Jones is Titans Broncos.
Colby, your jets. They pay the bills. You’re a real asshole for making me feel stupid. All right, so do we just want to rattle them? Texas cheat. Texans cheat. Tens minus 10 for the chiefs. Is this not a Thursday night football is in Kansas city. Yes, of course. The raise in the bank. 10 points be a big number. I’m a, I’m, I’m taking the dog here even though I’m still pissed at the Texans. Hopefully we are out in Vegas doing a livestream show.
We have to go for the first time. You forget. We do the live stream. It’s a whole event. Seahawks, Falcon, Seahawks minus one. Are you going to, are you are a Colby? I’m going to pick a game. Oh, I’ll take the points. I said it was two months to 10 and the NFL man, there’s always a bit of a hangover after that. Super bowl chief’s the first ever. Yeah, right. I mean like 50 years and just, yeah, I think the hangovers always a strong thing for everyone. We saw the Patriots lose to the chiefs one year right after they won.
Yeah. It’s tough. It’s a lot of, a lot of pressure. Lot of emotion. That’s a policy out there crying at rapid firing guys. Bring a minus one against the Falcons. I assume this is in Atlanta. I’m going to Seattle. I’ll take Seattle as a road favorite. Yeah, I mean it’s, it’s, it’s worrisome to take them on the road early in the season, but it’s a lot of travel. But first game of the season they got that Week will Dan Quinn be fired?
Week 12. Uh, I mean he definitely is going to be one of the guy’s favored to be fired first. Uh, I’ll say, I mean we, we’d have to pull up his schedule, but I would say he, he’ll be within the two top three coaches to get a buyer. I think he might be number one. Eagles Redskins, Eagles minus five and a half. That’s not a touchdown goes with asking you to wear, Oh, this is in Philly. Oh, this is in Washington. Doesn’t matter what, what have you seen about this Redskins office?
They can put up points against the Eagles. So that’s the problem. Yeah. I’m here in a dream team coming out of Philly. I’m a hero. No one said that. And they got hurt. They had, they finally have the wishbone complete. I’m going to throw for you for a one 50 and two touchdowns. I think Hertz, we’ll get to carry in this game to all friends at Patriots Les than a touchdown. O give me the pack and a half to give me the past. Give me the dolphins baby. We saw it in Madden MAYhem this dolphins team, scrappy and I, if I’m not mistaken, this is one of the numbers they got bet quick.
Uh, I think it opened North of seven at seven and a half and quickly got back down. So that’s certainly something to look at. Ah, I’ll be a neutral over here. And tell us your opinion. This is, what did they cover in new England last year? Is that the game where they just, that was in Miami. One in new England. Did they, they want, damn it. They got that wind knocked them out to the, to see Patriots are gonna suck. They didn’t have a quarterback. Can we have the dolphins, Packers, Vikings, Viking’s minus three.
Where’s this? This is in Minnesota. In the spaceship. Not prime time. Not prime time. Give me the Packers. I’m all over to the, um, I’m going Vikings here. I, I think the, just the chemistry issues that green Bay has going, Vikings are great early on in the season. Jeff Blake kind of talked about that. Yeah, he did. And we’ll get to that in a second here. Great. And what are you doing? I mean, I, I was, I was rewarded for taking the Packers on week in, week one, last year against the bears.
I’ll do it again. It’s Kurt cousins. This is a big game. Kurt Kurt traps that Kurt trips Colts. Jags Colts minus seven mentioned mania. Baby cults are going to just role to make the brig CPU a simulation like Madden where mince you fumbles and they still give it to them. This is called the defense is for real. And uh, and I think Phillip rivers, they got, they got a lot going on and just huge coaching advantage cults roll baby. Throw that in a tease already.
I like that. I love that. And a tease bears lions. It’s going to be a pig in Detroit. Give me the bears. I’ll go lions here. And that’s a sneaky. Yeah, that’s a sneaky. Stay away from me. Stafford’s back. You gotta remember Staffels are assuming staff or this assumes staffers, the quarterback, but he was out. It’s the different team when he’s back in there. I think, you know, Patricia is a horrible coach, but they looked all right though. Before a staffer got hurt last year.
We kind of forget because it was so early, but they, they seem like a decent and they almost need the chiefs in home. I’ll take the Lines give me a close game. Yeah, it will be a good game. But I think there’s, I think everyone on the teams out on Mitch. So I think there’s going to be some confidence issues for a man after the first quarter. Lion’s close. A favorite in this One Browns, Ravens, Ravens minus nine. Way too high. Give me the Browns. Even though I hate the brows. Brands play a tough, I feel. And they got their offensive lines better now. It was last year when we watched Lamar Jackson throw for five or six touchdowns against the dolphins.
A week one when we were out there in Vegas. Uh, we might’ve seen the best stretch we’re ever gonna see of that team of the Ravens and the Browns have talent. Last year it was, you know, there was a little bit too much hype, perhaps flying under the radar. I, I unfortunately I might have to take the points with the Browns has been very vocal about this upcoming season. It’s a surprise. Uh, what a bummer. Jets. Bill’s Bill’s minus five and a half at home. Give me the bills and stop it. I’ll go, uh, I’ll go jets.
This is a field goal game and really, why is it a touchdown game? I think the jets are able to move the ball a little bit on the bills. Adam gaze. I like Robbie Anderson. They got Frank or a baby. Yeah, that’s true. It’s just the gist. A grown ass man, Ray, a Raiders, Panthers, Panthers minus one. Oh, I love, I love this for Carolina. Matt roll new era. Teddy Bridgewater guide doesn’t turn the ball over. Christian McCaffrey and this is week one, so I mean there’s, I think there’s going to be a real conditioning issue and you put the Raiders out in that Carolina heat in early September.
The Raiders or a speed team in, in the grass always plays long in Carolina, West coast. Go on to the East coast. I Panthers. You could lock that up now. Wow. I mean again, another team, we didn’t really see them start with a quarterback last year, you know? Yeah. We got excited about Kyle Allen, but Teddy Bridgewater and PJ water for a Walker for that matter are probably better than anyone they ran out there last year. Do you feel Grier included? I just don’t, this should probably be a, this should be a three point.
Do you think the NFL is trying to give them a favor of having them play Carolina so then in the season opener or they could be one thing to know on Monday night football when they open up in I’m into conspiracies and give me the Raiders. There’s no way the Raiders as an organization are going to properly schedule a trip to the East coast where the body clocks to be. Right. Panthers role here, this, they should be three chargers, Bengals chargers minus three and half supercharges and that’s massively disrespectful.
I’m going to tie rod Taylor. The Bengals just drafted the number one pick for a reason. Charlie’s got a good defense man. You look at their time, their talent, their good. Why is this three and a half Sean? I don’t know. All the Cincy fans are going to be out since he is. I mean we were at Justin and this game’s and since the, I’m sorry. Yeah. Oh okay. Yeah I was trying, I was trying to track what you’re, where you’re going. They’re cramming the charger is a three and a half a point road favorite. I’ll actually, it’s interesting cause I do like taking rookie quarterbacks on that first start at home because they can’t figure them out.
Maybe they have a couple of trick plays. Zack Taylor, this feels like a field goal game. Even though I’m saying that I’ll go chargers minus three and a half. I think tie rod actually is the starter to start the season. Um, Joe Perot might just have a bumpy start. Yeah, and that charge his defense is a legit, yeah. Books. Saints. I think this was one of the games you threw out, Colby, a Saint’s minus four and a half, so yeah, we’re not seeing a 10 point number like we did a couple of years ago. I’m going to bet that that that line gets closer the same week.
At this point. We should write this down on our Gambling manifesto, but fate the saints early on. Yeah, they always get it off to a slow start. A Sean Peyton in September is Ruff and bucks. We’ll be looking to really make a statement. Give me the bucks catching four and a half. I’ll take the bucks as well. Cards Niners perfect timing Kramer, we’re about to see that in Madden MAYhem all over the Cardinals getting a touch down to more Niners minus seven and a half at home. They will probably go up on one hand. It feels like a low number on the other.
This arm, if the defense can just take a step to being below average from bad or atrocious the, I think the offense takes a step forward. We saw Kyler, he was frisky. This team lost close games. They tied the lions. They probably, you know, he was frisky. They played the Niners good two last year. They at both times they played them well. I think the Niners, the one thing about that nighters Defence, they struggle with someone who has, has mobility and you know, we have to see what they look like without the, the big guy book, they’re up front.
I’m going to take the points as well with you, Sean, with you, I think. I think this could get down to a touchdown. I think you might want to grab a seven and a half. Really. Cowboys at Rams, Cowboys minus two and a half Rams money line. Give me the Rams as a home dog. Baby CD is going to be a lack
Speaker 0 (29m 42s): of lack of room cancer. I mean do we know is Andy Dalton starting a deck is not a scientist
Speaker 5 (29m 47s): deal yet? I probably, this is, this is not the correct, I mean, why, why or the Rams not minus two and a half a year and at a minimum like, yeah, if you don’t want to go Rams minus three Cowboys are kind of like Duke or something or Notre Dame and football where I feel like they get, they get points. Cowboys were eating eight last year and you’re going to make, I’m a road favorite against the team that are you sure we don’t like Jared Goff and it sucks to have to route for Jared golf. Week One bring a Blake Bortles but I don’t like, especially because Aaron Donald’s still there, right?
He’s still like, Oh yeah, Zeke had a, I don’t know. This one is puzzling, but we also do hate the Cowboys. Steelers giants. We said we were going to do this fast and we didn’t do the fast. The Steelers Johns, the Steelers up right away. A Steelers minus three on the road. Give me a Steelers. Are you serious? Even the Steelers, all of this respectfully, he’s going to go off. It’s going to be Epic. I can not wait. I love the excuse to start football at 4:00 PM on the West coast on Monday night. The late game to love that Bronco’s minus two and a half at home against the Titans.
Once again, early games in Denver. You gotta take the Broncos massive event,
Speaker 0 (31m 4s): right? I feel like this, I’m surprised this number. I’m surprised it’s not like Titans minus one. I mean one of the Titans were in the AFC championship game. I like the Bronx in a manner that home field is three no, but Ryan, this line is put out for the public. I’m surprised that they’re already had unit Broncos minus two and a half. I think they’re going to get a lot of money. I’m going to be surprised with the no, no one actually likes the Titans. Hashtag tighten up baby. Okay.

Speaker 5 (32m 39s): shut in
Speaker 7 (32m 40s): these days? But you know, I got a little bit, you know, just to do some training with some of my kids that I trained. You know, I think I’m going to probably have been the best Corona for the environment I’ve been on a football field. Just me and a kid.
Speaker 0 (32m 52s): Yeah, yeah, no, it’s uh, I mean, and he sort of exercising and get outdoors. Just throw it, throwing the ball around. Have you of course had what, 13 years in the NFL?
Speaker 7 (33m 3s): Yeah. At 14, you know, will give me the extra a year.
Speaker 0 (33m 5s): Okay. Do you mean to short change? I think that was my math, but a, I was watching
Speaker 7 (33m 11s): so I had to get in it. It’s hard to get in that league, man.
Speaker 0 (33m 13s): Oh yeah. Well, yeah, starting out with that. I mean, you had a very long career compared to most, a guy like Sam Bradford walks into the league, plays a couple years, makes a ton of money that has to infuriate you and probably most of the earlier generation,
Speaker 7 (33m 29s): there’s nothing I can do about it. You know, it is what it is. And, um, and, and I tell somebody, young kids all the time, a guy’s in the league now that my nephew would say, Jones, you said the Raiders’. And I tell him to get all of the money you can give a man, get it all. And a bowl. Powell, it’s a warm, you know, sometimes you have to tear it a pass. It sometimes you have to pass the torch or the, they put the next generation, you know, so that’s kinda what we did.
Speaker 0 (33m 54s): Yeah. You really were a, a, you were a pioneer. I mean, when you came in the league, not a ton of African-American quarterbacks, you were, I think you pointed out every city you went to, you were the first African American quarterback for that franchise. So really broke a lot of ground there.
Speaker 7 (34m 10s): Yeah. That, that really wasn’t true. Um, the about that, you know, the first one and the jazz first one and Cincinnati, definitely the first one in the world. And it’s,
Speaker 8 (34m 21s): um, uh,
Speaker 7 (34m 24s): I wasn’t the first and Baltimore,
Speaker 8 (34m 26s): uh, okay.
Speaker 7 (34m 28s): First in Arizona. Sure. And it wasn’t the first in Chicago.
Speaker 9 (34m 34s): That’s crazy. And that’s something that’s bothered me my whole life. You know, I grew up in Washington DC and when you’re a kid, you don’t know race. And I remember, you know, being hearing conversations of like, Oh, well a, you know, a black quarterback can’t win a Superbowl. And I was always like, go home to my mom and my dad and be like, Doug Williams already want a super bowl. I don’t understand mom, what’s going on, you know, human beings, a human being and, and it, it, it’s really crazy that it lasted that long and it probably still lasts. But did coaches ever try to have you play other positions?
Speaker 8 (35m 6s): Uh,
Speaker 7 (35m 9s): when I came out of high school, I was drafted by One university to play quarterback one B one one D one school to play quarterback. Let me correct that. And the only division one school, whatever crew to make the quarterback was East Carolina. That’s why I went there.
Speaker 9 (35m 25s): There we go. Look as a, as an East Carolina guy, they were, you know, first off, this is a, this is a, we’ve had plenty of guests on this. One rate’s for me because you are the best East Carolina quarterback of all time. Top 10 finish in 1991. Talk to me about that year. And really you could, cause you guys kind of had like a Boise state type of a year in 1991.
Speaker 7 (35m 47s): Well, I take it that well or just stay ahead and show.
Speaker 9 (35m 50s): There we go. That’s what I mean. And I should say that I should say that of all people. My apologies
Speaker 7 (35m 57s): first we did it at first. We did it before. .
Speaker 9 (36m 1s): Exactly. Exactly. Can walk me through that year. And how awesome that year was for you.
Speaker 7 (36m 7s): Oh man. It was a, it was a game by game blur. It really was. Cause we, we did a excellent job of moving on to the next game. We never, you know, dwelled on the game that we one day a week before we only focused on the Week and the task at hand. And ah, the coaches did a good job of giving us to do that, you know?
And we knew if we could just stay close enough at the end that we would have an opportunity to win. And that’s what, that’s what happened. People allowed us to stay close to the end and we would just come back to be with them.
Speaker 9 (36m 52s): Yeah. And, and you guys took down, I got a note this right now. You took down a lot of power, five schools, NC state, Syracuse, Pitt, South Carolina, but also you took down to Virginia tech and my cohost here at Virginia tech graduate. So I just want to throw some salt in the wound.
Speaker 5 (37m 7s): Yeah, I mean East Carolina ruined, ruined a couple of years. Not now. 91 was before my time, but still I honestly it goes in this order. Miami, West Virginia, East Carolina and team in terms of teams I hate.
Speaker 9 (37m 23s): Um, now
Speaker 7 (37m 24s): we, we, we, we, we hopefully we can turn it around. We haven’t been able to solidify head coach here in the last couple of years because they were in and out because they aren’t doing the job. It takes a special coach to coach at East Carolina. The problem is we get coaches that went and then they decide to leave and go to the bigger programs, what they think their bigger programs and they wind up getting fired for most programs when they should have stayed at each. Come on. And I think one of the spark coaches we had with his coach, Steve Logan, who baked it for five years.
Speaker 9 (37m 56s): I was just about to bring up coach Logan. Are you, are you still, are you still a, you know, in touch with, with coach Logan? I know my brother lives in Raleigh, North Carolina and he host a radio show down there and he’s absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 7 (38m 9s): Yeah, I have seen him a few times and when I went back to the East Carolina and actually I need to reach out to him first to say Hey, but yeah, um, I follow his son Nathan and fence and on Facebook. Um, so, um, I got his number one from Nate and I think, so I think I just need to reach out to someone Blake now. He was a great guy, still a great guy. I always enjoy it. And then the toes.
Speaker 5 (38m 33s): So Jeff you were a, a, you were a six pick coming out
Speaker 0 (38m 36s): in the ECU, ended up having a ton of success in the league at this, uh, you know, taking a look at this 2020 draft class. Do you see any of these late round quarterbacks? Any of them possibly having some success? Of course. Jordan Love Jacob Easten
Speaker 7 (38m 52s): well, you know, it’s all based on the program. The organization that you go to. I’m going to tell you now, you have organizations that’s in a league that’s guaranteed to get to the playoffs area based on their organization. Shit. You know what the teens, I’m talking about the Patriots, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, um, Penn city. Now, I mean, even when I played a Lieutenant city was in the playoffs every year, you know, um, those teams are in the playoffs.
Every, a green Bay. Um, you know, the organization that they, they involve, those guys go to solidify organization. They always have opportunity to be successful. You know, the belief with a knot thinks it’s one of those seeds down, you know, so, um, no one I’ve played the lead, you know, the saints, we’ll call it the ankle
Speaker 0 (39m 45s): bags over their heads.
Speaker 7 (39m 47s): Yeah. You know, and til 2000 when we all came in and 2000, I don’t know, I have a lot less than that. I was the second 2000 I’ve turned that organization around, you know, and um, wound up getting hurt in the air. Pro same man. That was the last time I’ll play for the saints.
Speaker 0 (40m 2s): Yeah, no 2000. You had a great record. 700 for a 13 touchdowns, only nine interceptions one night. And I didn’t hear him say the Bengals on that list of teams that are set up to win, at least set up organizationally to win. So what do you think about Joe burrow? You think he’s got a shot?
Speaker 7 (40m 21s): Well, they were, how many first rounds were after the quarterbacks of they have had since I left?
Speaker 9 (40m 25s): Oh man. Now, uh, I mean he gets, I think there’s potential. I like bros game now. I don’t know. I mean w w
Speaker 7 (40m 37s): no, I’m going to tell you now the borough will not be successful unless the organization decides to build around this and that is the manta. Is you yet to build around any quarterbacks that they have drafted?
Speaker 9 (40m 49s): Well, correct me if I’m wrong Jeff but uh, I’ve always known like the chargers and the BR, the Bengals to beat some of the cheaper organisations in the league as far as building a football team. Yeah. So there you go. So we’re, we’re praying for Joe burrow
Speaker 7 (41m 5s): and is not the fact that you don’t, it could be cheap, but it’s how you handle business and how you handle your players. You don’t have to be a top tier team to handle your a players. Right. You know, if I was, if I was a oner and I, and I wasn’t the owner that I like to spend a lot of money, I would do other things to bring my players then to make them feel more family, to make the environment feel more family oriented. But no, give them perks.
If I ain’t gotta give them money, I would give him something else. You know,
Speaker 0 (41m 39s): give him a little hookup on the side.
Speaker 7 (41m 42s): Yeah, because I was on a phone on the side. Basically they get an endorsement in the office, in the city, off the field, you know, things like that. You know, there’s other ways, you know you can make up that income, especially with some of your star players. You know, especially with social media today,
Speaker 0 (41m 56s): I really need Steve Tisch to start doing that for the giants and getting these guys in movies, star recruit maybe and let’s go
Speaker 9 (42m 4s): now and your 1995 season when you, when you, I believe you meant that one of your Pro Bowl year, I got a note here that the Bengals, we’re the worst defensive team in the NFL that year. One can only think how good would Jeff Blake be regarded in the world. Had you had a defense man, you had Pickens and Darnay Scot and this offense that was dynamic of how do you look back at those years and think what if,
Speaker 7 (42m 29s): and the year we went to the pro bowl man pick and we led the AFC and every category and all offence and then we were the first or second in passing and AFC and it, all of this stuff. We won seven games, seven,
Speaker 0 (42m 45s): seven, geez. Yeah,
Speaker 7 (42m 47s): call light 21 touchdowns that year we won seven games, you know. So, you know, and, and it is true, you know, defense wins games, defense wins championships. And if you don’t have a good base, a base running game, and if you don’t have a, a, a solid defense that can get turnovers and score points, you can forget it.
Speaker 0 (43m 11s): Now, in, in 95, you actually, you led the AFC and passing touchdowns with 28, but now you look at today’s numbers and it’s completely off the charts. Uh, what do you, what do you think kinda of, what kind of numbers could you imagine playing now with the way the league is officiated and just the way all offenses are run?
Speaker 7 (43m 31s): Well, without the Ozzy or the same as Bries and all the rest of them, but you know, we were at the One average 30,000. It’s a little over 3000 a year, but we ran a ball a lot more. Yeah, we, we had running backs back then that were pound at football and me, you had the Eddie, George, his drone bet their own bed. This is, I had Corey Dillon for a little bit. You know, you had, you know, the Toro Davis is a, you know, we would run that football, you know, um, you know, the head had Brian Westbrook, you know, those guys were carrying the ball, you know, 25 30 plus games, you know, you know, Dallas had in it, you know, they know what’s going on.
25, 20 plus touchdowns of gang, I mean a year.
Speaker 9 (44m 14s): Yeah. W when you’re on the Bengals, did you have a team that you hate like that you just dread, dreaded to play? Like who is the arch rival there? That was the Steelers. Was that the Browns as the Oilers that you just hated playing against the breads? Why is that?
Speaker 7 (44m 30s): I hate a plan of Browns because I’ve always thought that we were better than now, but somehow they always lined up the, but it was total opposite when we played this bird, we always ate at Pittsburgh.
Speaker 0 (44m 42s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (44m 44s): No idea of why. I don’t know why it was that way, but when we played a Brown and they seemed like we could just never, never get over that hump, but we always, at any given time be Pittsburgh.
Speaker 0 (44m 56s): Now, you mentioned you were on the, uh, or, or you mentioned Brian Westbrook and I, I know you were a member of the 2004 Eagle’s team a year in the QB room with Donovan McNabb. Koy Detmer. I always heard this as an urban legend that Koy Detmer used to go on road trips and he would only bring a toothbrush and the playbook. Is that correct?
Speaker 7 (45m 17s): That’s the Dallas training camp.
Speaker 0 (45m 18s): Oh, okay.
Speaker 7 (45m 21s): That was, yeah, that was a road trip.
Speaker 0 (45m 26s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (45m 27s): Yeah, he did to bring it to brushes, the playbook. That’s it.
Speaker 0 (45m 31s): That’s great. That’s awesome. That’s a legendary guy. The guy can’t be a married man.
Speaker 7 (45m 36s): Every year he would go by, it wouldn’t never ship his cars or anything. Every year he would go file like a thousand dollar car.
Speaker 0 (45m 44s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (45m 45s): Yes. The RAF on practice two is two back to wherever he was living. But now that the cool thing was every year he would take that car and he would give it away too, like for donation or a charity or they would give it to somebody.
Speaker 0 (45m 59s): That’s cool. That’s awesome. He always seemed like a good dude. He seemed like a very regular like kind of blue collar man’s man.
Speaker 7 (46m 6s): Yeah, definitely. Definitely. Definitely. So
Speaker 0 (46m 9s): I got, he’s got a little country.
Speaker 7 (46m 11s): If you gave him 10 pairs of sweats, those of sweats he gonna wear for the season.
Speaker 0 (46m 17s): Well, so that, that brings up,
Speaker 7 (46m 18s): well, it’s not going to go by custom suit. He’s not going to go buy high Gucci’s a little bit. Nah, don’t exist.
Speaker 0 (46m 25s): That brings up a good question because NFL quarterbacks, I mean there’s been a handful of characters in the bunch who is the outside of who we just spoke about. Any other kind of strange interactions or kind of interesting experiences in the quarterback room?
Speaker 7 (46m 39s): Oh no, no, I’m not a think about that. One. I made got played for so long and most of the time I was, you know, later in my career I was the old G in a quarter of a row. So I kinda said to tempo, you know, early in my career though, you know,
Speaker 8 (46m 56s): okay.
Speaker 7 (46m 56s): Early in my career it was a little bit different. I was born in a learning phase, I was more, I was one of the learning phase and I was more into a,
Speaker 8 (47m 9s): okay,
Speaker 7 (47m 9s): Nope. Trying to understand the game and play it again. So I was kinda more, you know, eager to learn and see how it can get better. But once you, you know, you’d become a better to get, you know, eight plus years in the league, you know, you see one play you see on a mall at that point. You know, I think that was a problem between Karen Roz’s and um, Mike McCarthy. But Mike, I know Mike personally cause he was Bob as a coordinator. That, and then the wall is, and Mike is a very, you know, you know, cross the T’s.
Dot. The I’s type of guy, a very technical, very, you know, I’m going to be rapid, rapid, rapid, you know, they know every, every game plan. If we don’t, we go to the install. We going on with the same basic, OK, all hits, what’s going on over there and read everything. And I know Aaron is like, dude, I’ve been here 10 years. I’m not going of all, here’s a guy.
Speaker 0 (48m 5s): Yeah,
Speaker 7 (48m 7s): I’m sure that’s what happened.
Speaker 0 (48m 9s): Yeah. So you, you kind of theorized that maybe that’s what caused the, the kind of beef between MacCarthy McCarthy and Rogers is that he’s very regimented and Rogers likes to freestyle. He probably doesn’t want to drill the same thing over and over again.
Speaker 7 (48m 22s): Yeah, I’m going to do it. I’ve been doing it with 10 years. I’m not going on with that play with you at all.
Speaker 0 (48m 26s): I feel, I mean, I’m, I’m with Aaron on that one.
Speaker 7 (48m 30s): No, I’m not doing it again. I’m not, I’m not going over every detail, every, the detail of each play because we’ve done that for the last five years
Speaker 9 (48m 40s): right now. Jeff
Speaker 7 (48m 42s): I know how to, I know how to run that. Plus
Speaker 9 (48m 44s): no. Jeff let me ask you your thoughts on Jalen hurts. It’s a guy that I think is, it was criminally underrated coming into the draft. I had to read it a lot higher than, than a lot of uh, experts. So called experts. Uh, what’s your analysis when you look at Jalen hurts? I know Sacramento pick by the Eagle’s and my buddy here, a cohost Sean is a Eagle fan so I’m sure he’s going to want to hear what you want to say. What do you think of Jalen hurts? It is the transition to the NFL.
Speaker 7 (49m 9s): A bank, you have a tremendous upside. He’s a definitely a gamer.
Speaker 10 (49m 15s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (49m 15s): Speaking when you some football games, um, it all depends on how much they develop them as an NFL quarterback. It’s one thing to do be, you know a a a player but its nothing to get developed a deal. NFL quarterback, they just can’t walk in it. And just the NFL quarterback you have to do to sell to be that way. No, you have to be taught certain things that if the games don’t catch up with you, you know, you see guys like Patrick Mahomes One who actually wanted, so for this year and she got late the March as to who we’re MPP the shit.
They can be like cam Newton in two years. They don’t watch out.
Speaker 0 (49m 52s): Yeah. You were. And where do you think a cam Newton ends up a land and he’s kinda, the musical QB chairs have kind of settled in. He doesn’t really have a landing spot right now. Where do you think he ends up?
Speaker 10 (50m 4s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (50m 4s): I was thinking of Miami.
Speaker 0 (50m 6s): Mm. Yeah, I could see that. Get, you know, give them a little, uh, give them a starter before they had to go to the back room.
Speaker 7 (50m 14s): I don’t know. It was, I don’t know. It was a hundred percent. I don’t know who I was. A kid they make, they get that contact right now, but a guy like amp would come in and play right away and they don’t have the tools set for a couple of years, one or two years and let him learn and come in someplace and they can run it for a year, so to for the next two years of that and then two we’ll come come in after that. You know, I don’t think it’s a great idea of sometimes they just split brick exam started. I think it’s a learning curve there and a lot of times the Atlanta curve is said on the side.
I didn’t know the field, but you do on the field, man, to get Rick in the gun become a gunshot. You do the same.
Speaker 0 (50m 52s): Sean, can I give you a dark horse for a cam Newton? Sure. Deshaun Watson gets hurt a lot. Bill O’Brien’s a maniac as a GM that could just work a little two quarterback system and maybe maybe Kim’s doing that. He’s just waiting on the sidelines waiting for maybe a a, an early injury and then he signs with that team. You, you actually do your own personal coaching. You got your own football camp. Jeff Blake training.com. Is there anyone, is there a quarterback in the league that you see their game and you go, Oh man, I wish I was in the QB room with them. I wish I was coaching them up cause I, I really feel like they are good but maybe I could give them a little bit more.
Is there anyone you’d really look forward to coaching in the league?
Speaker 7 (51m 30s): No. See Patrick Mahomes I really can help as mechanics that I really can help as mechanics as well. Um, as well they are accurate. You know they can play. Yeah. But what they’re doing now, they don’t it cause they young when they get to be five, two years of leave, they hope to be able to do that though. I’m always, you have to have perfect, you have to have better mechanics, better at work, you know, to be there to align yourself to give to your target. Now you have a gunslinger, now he’s a big deal. You can put your to contort your body, all the different types of positions and still make that bro.
But when you 32 34 and that ain’t going to happen, bro.
Speaker 0 (52m 9s): Yeah.
Speaker 7 (52m 10s): You got to give back to basics, you know, so I would love to teach them the proper fundamentals when it comes to a foot work and basically to get to that by their lives to make the rules. It’s like two brief debrief all with you. The speed around they can throw. He never threw an awkward position. Why 40 years old?
Speaker 0 (52m 28s): Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean a similar thing with a, you know, Tom Brady, I mean that’s probably partly why he’s been able to hang around for so long.
Speaker 7 (52m 36s): Exactly. And proper mechanics, proper foot work. It’s just the speed around made to grow. They do a little crazy. Saw a sign on it. That was a pattern
Speaker 0 (52m 44s): back behind the back. It’s like, dude, come on. And I didn’t see him. Brady doing a no look pass. Come on a exactly. It’s Tom Brady. You mentioned the saints and of course they’ve kind of dabbled with the two quarterback system where they have one. They bring the other guy in. They bring in taste some Hill. I kind of watching that game. You like taste some Hill.
Speaker 7 (53m 7s): I like to know how you use this grimy man crime easier just to get the ball in my hand, bro. Let me fall out.
Speaker 0 (53m 18s): Do you think it would be a successful starter?
Speaker 7 (53m 22s): See I, I, I see him being like a Lamar Jackson plan.
Speaker 0 (53m 27s): Wow. Okay. How do you praise?
Speaker 7 (53m 29s): They do the same thing and with him like you do at Lamar Jackson, he will be held.
Speaker 0 (53m 34s): Yeah. How do you feel about Jamis Winston there?
Speaker 7 (53m 40s): That’s a good for Jamie. Jamie’s got to learn some football.
Speaker 11 (53m 43s): Yeah.
Speaker 7 (53m 45s): Any novelty Dodd and boxing bags. These guys,
Speaker 0 (53m 48s): that video is a video. It’s pretty funny. They can see now. I mean Jesus, he’s got a lot of things going for him. He’s going to land a nice contract I think in a year.
Speaker 7 (53m 59s): My son, my son James, he was like, dude, you really need to call my dad.
Speaker 0 (54m 5s): Yeah. That that training a video he did. He did as a QB coach. How about have you ever put anyone through an exercise like that?
Speaker 7 (54m 14s): I don’t put anyone through anything. They are not going to experience on a football.
Speaker 0 (54m 20s): That’s the most complimentary way you can say no, of course not. That’s crazy. I like it. But yet with tastes him with tastes. I’m a, I agree with you. He’s a, he’s got a lot of potential and I think of a team did the same Lamar Jackson style where they put the roster around him and really build the playbook around a skillset he could be successful. But what do you think about the idea of this like this two quarterback system where or they have drew breeze and then there’s some of it and taste some Hill. I got to imagine that that throws off breeze is rhythm and momentum or do you think there is a quite sure
Speaker 7 (54m 55s): saves. It saves him, it prolongs his career just like it just like this. This is like LeBron coming up for something for 20 minutes at a game.
Speaker 0 (55m 6s): I like that. So a cooler back, road management, QB load management. It’s the future.
Speaker 7 (55m 11s): Yeah. It’s just Madden. It’s just management. You can’t run LeBraun two, two crazy. You can’t play them the whole game. He needs a minute song. Especially when, especially when it comes to a fight before a play on top of
Speaker 0 (55m 23s): so, but Jeff if you were in that Saint’s playoff game, you’re, you’re, you’re starting your drew Brees. You wouldn’t be a little annoyed when they’re bringing in taste some Hill to run these different packages or you’d be maybe okay with it?
Speaker 7 (55m 35s): No, because I run on them.
Speaker 0 (55m 39s): That’s a good point.
Speaker 7 (55m 41s): I’m not running, I’m not running over the RPO.
Speaker 0 (55m 45s): No,
Speaker 7 (55m 46s): I’m going to be mad. Why? Because at the end of the day it ain’t about me. It’s about winning a championship and if he can help us win a championship, cause at the end of the day, as you breathe, I’m going to be true breeze case. They can’t never take that away from now. So of a black man, they play a fireplace at office and we, and we win and we go to the super bowl and we win. He brings, I mean if I played every game, you have to understand when you, when you, when you, when you get to be there in the NFL, it ain’t about your accolades.
No. Mo is about trying to win that chip.
Speaker 11 (56m 26s): Yeah. Now,
Speaker 0 (56m 28s): yeah, of course. You played on the 2004 Eagles. Andy Reed was the head coach. You played a teammate of a Eric QB enemy there where you, where you’re ruined big for the chiefs in the super bowl.
Speaker 7 (56m 41s): Of course. Well, I play with Eric. Eric was, Myra I’ve made with arrogance is a nanny. It was my roommate for four years. It’s this and that. It was about here’s my roommate on a road for four years.
Speaker 9 (56m 52s): He needs a head coaching job man. Right. Can we agree to that? Like how was he not a head coach?
Speaker 7 (56m 57s): Eric? Eric is a great coach, man. He’s a great player. It’s a great coach. He’s a, he’s, he’s, I’m going to tell you something, and a lot of people don’t know this, but one of the players that had the most respect on our bingos team with Airbnb, we had some characters, but with a step in a row, that depth stuff halted. It holds it. But they were definitely had much respect for EAP. Definitely.
So he still has that same stigma about him.
Speaker 0 (57m 33s): Yeah. Well, hopefully he gets a hater of men. Sean lead that man command in the room. Hopefully he gets a head coaching job and then, you know, it gives you a ring and says, come on Jeff we need to coach up some get you to get to go on there in the league.
Speaker 7 (57m 45s): You know, I saw him last year at the, I’m at the, uh, uh, black coaches, Nast at a black coach. It’s a, um, um, um, often, I think it was a quarterback coach’s and office coordinators deal with it that we have in Atlanta in the year that, um, James Harris puts on, on, um, and, um, he could talk to me. He’s like, Hey dude, I need to talk to you. I need, I may need you to come to Kansas city to a summer and, and I, he never, it never came to fruition, but I think maybe I’m going to have something going on.
Not sure.
Speaker 0 (58m 22s): That’d be awesome to have you in the league and appreciate you calling in. Jeff make sure he give a Jeff a fall on Twitter.

Speaker 1 (1m 3s): .
Speaker 0 (1m 35s): Oh, welcome everyone to the Sports. Gambling Podcast. I’m Shawn stacking them on a screen with my partner in picks Ryan. Real money. Kramer. What’s happening in Kramer? I mean it, it’s a fabulous day in the neighborhood. Sean, the NFL has,
Speaker 2 (1m 52s): they released a schedule and prime job hooked ball, third man, the moon journey and this comi day.
Speaker 0 (2m 0s): AK the database.
Speaker 3 (2m 2s):
Speaker 0 (2m 6s): I just like to listen to that. Sometimes I get caught up in my own name and my ego, everything. You know what I mean? Guys, call me coming out. How are you guys doing? Doing great. We just wrapped up a night, one of Week to have Madden MAYhem and we uh, we also had an awesome interview earlier today with Jeff Blake. We’ll be getting to that later on. The podcast, former ECU, former ECU and Bengals quarterback, 10 tickets punched for the sweet 16 and Madden MAYhem six more to go.
Speaker 2 (2m 39s): Yeah, he’s one of those guys who will get penetration.
Speaker 0 (2m 42s): But we got to talk about the NFL schedule at trapped tonight. And as we’re taping this, everyone was leaking out different things. Some. Some of the schedule leaks were wrong. We really should just start our own NFL schedule and there’s no repercussions if you leek the wrong thing. Clayton used to be a reliable, I feel like you know what a John Clayton with the big snafoos sane, all the AFC teams will play. The NFC team’s for the first four weeks of the season. You get to see the schedule. Of course, that’s not the case. Who’s giving him that bad Intel?
That’s what I want to know. Then everyone, a Adam shifter at a tweet, like they’re doing a three hour release show and it’ll bring hope and everyone got really mad. I liked that. He said bring hope because a lot of these like, Oh, what you need that to bring you hope? Yes, I do. I need to think about football. Okay. There’s portions of my day where I’m not a good mood. I’m not happy if you have a shitty job, you know what keeps you going? You know what makes you feel good? Knowing that there’s going to be football on Sunday and knowing what the schedule is going to be already.
You see the 16 games? Okay. Are they 12 and four will they be 11 to five seven and nine if they have a catastrophic injury, let me daydream. Let me think about the future. That’s a definition of hope. I feel like Theismann painted the picture saying like, look, we all had this, this virus come and fuck up our lives. Right? And he’s like, the NFL is going to lead us back. You know what I mean? So who better than the national football league to say, you know what, we’re not going to give you an altered schedule. Hey, maybe we’ll change it. But were the NFL, Hey, we’re not really up for changing things.
If anything, they hold on to things for way too long. Much like Joe Theismann held on to the one bar face. Miss stubbornly said, I’m not going to change just for my own personal health. And the NFL has the same. Exactly. Exactly. And for and for that, I bumped no more. No more Elway Brady talk. It’s Theismann Brady talk. All right. If you, if you offered me games, opening tickets to opening night NFL, I’d be there 100% I would be there to take my chance. I’d wear a mask.
I was telling my buddy, Justin and I go shark tank invention, come up with a mask that also incorporates a straw so guys can go to the games and still get drunk as fuck without taking their mask off. I think sharks, I’m presenting that to you. This is a million dollar idea. Their brand and of course with team logos, maybe a little SGP in there. And speaking of which, we got our own SGP masks. Go to Sports Gambling, podcast.com/ and grab a mask. Any proceeds that we get from the mass, go to charity. If you go to a Raiders game, I’m going to be wearing a mask anyway, right?
I mean, yeah, but that’s like the rod, the liquor store on, on the way to the game to grabbed the, grab some chips off the craps table, make a run for the stadium. Let’s get to it. Let’s highlight some of the interesting stuff. Uh, in the 2020 ad NFL schedule. But before we do, Oh,
Speaker 4 (5m 33s): I was, I was teasing something off, but let’s get to this first. Sorry for him or you look, you were a drift over there and get it going back. Yes, of course.

Speaker 5 (6m 43s): Sean couple nuggets. Of course. We always like to call out which teams got the prime time. Love. Yeah, the pats, the Ravens, the Niners and the bucks all five times. Sean, the city of Tampa Bay, Tom Brady comes to town. Tampa Bray. You mean they now can enjoy the beach nine times during the season with games at four 25 or in prime time? I look this, uh, I would say this about the schedule.
A couple of things I noticed, I also noticed the giants were given a bunch of horse shit. Like, Oh gee, like they, did you guys get any prime time games? I didn’t. I didn’t look through the giants. Oh, you played the Eagles Thursday night. The books are one of the Eagles.
Speaker 0 (7m 33s): We’ve got the money and they got them on it. The only reason you’re playing on prime time is because you’re playing on their big market or interesting.
Speaker 5 (7m 40s): Yes. That makes sense.
Speaker 0 (7m 42s): I feel like though, you know, I understand there’s a Brady buzz in Tampa, but it’s not going to out shine Minshew mania guys.
Speaker 5 (7m 50s): I mean they are not, they’re not going to tank. They’re going to accidentally win a couple of games. I think Doug maroon doesn’t strike me as the kind of guy who tanks. Sean, we were discussing this earlier, I believe on the Madden broadcast, but the Rams and chargers both play immediately at home. Yeah. That schedule better be done or that stadium better be done by the stadium being done. I think for LA, I don’t think their stadium happens on time and again, maybe the season gets pushed back and that buys them some time.
I’m guessing that the LA stadium cause California bunch of a, you know, posters,
Speaker 0 (8m 29s): a bunch of a grapefruit eaten soy boys there. Uh, and I had a great fruit today. Guilty as charged. It was delicious. How’s your decaf tea? One of my voice is hoarse for calling back to back games and TJ and madness and drinking a ton of liquor. So yeah, I need some soothing herbal tea you to get through this podcast.
Speaker 5 (8m 47s): I think the LA stadium, not ready to go, but the Vegas Raiders, Las Vegas Raiders, I think that one will be open on time that that mayor
Speaker 0 (8m 56s): is all she’s ready to go. They don’t, they’re ready to open it now Kramer, we normally go out for the first weekend in NFL season out to Las Vegas. Do we make it the second week? Because that’s when the Raiders make their home debut. Monday night football, so we can spend all Sunday watching the games and me at the sports book and then Monday night go to the debut of the Vegas Raiders. I am in. If you guys do that, I’ll sign up right now. This is a difficult decision because I, of course I’m also out there for the first weekend because of my fantasy, my fantasy football, right.
Desire is calling. You have your FFPC live drafts. I’m looking at at the tickets, the tickets are for that opening game in Las Vegas stadium at a lower level thousand bucks, which is insane. But I think we, I think we were, I think it’s a better plan. We, we go out Week One like we always do and then we just grabbed the private jet. Okay. That’s why after the game wanted to fly up to Oakland and just take that shuttle over to the stadium and watch them for a game.
Then they just go right home. We can achieve the same thing. It’s just Vegas instead of, and the airport has casinos, although we probably should stay the night just to be safe and maybe if we get on a heater like I, that’s what I mean. Like I’ve been on over to MyBookie dot. Agee blackjack table and played a couple of hands during one of the half times of, uh, of Madden MAYhem uh, Thanksgiving day again, all shout out to the NFL. Really. It was neck and neck, Thanksgiving and Christmas for the best holiday.
But when they decided to add that third late game, who is the third late game about to read it? It’s a triple header as always. Texans at Lines for the game. So much disrespectful. A bunch of, I don’t like that one. That one of the lions always get that shit. Nine 30 kicks tradition. What they should. If the, they should do that though, but just give them a classic team. Like the bears are the Vikings are the, you know the intro conference. I like the Texans. They fucked up my Madden MAYhem then the afternoon game you get Cowboys, Indians, Washington.
That’s a Dallas should happen every year. That’s a, that’s a fun, very Thanksgiving themed. There was a rumor that the Eagles were going to play the Cowboys on Thanksgiving and I was excited for it. But it’s a lot of pressure cause there’s a chance of ruins Thanksgiving and I become a, a huge asshole. So the ladies had once the once the night game then getting to that next ride, doing these in order the night game. Baltimore Ravens at Steelers. That’s what I’m talking about though.
So they just needed two of the three. It’s all great matches. But if they just replaced that with Lyons Packers then it’s perfect. Right? They can run that and even bears Packers. Yeah. Lines get their tray. They get their tradition. But I’m just saying lying like a divisional
Speaker 5 (11m 54s): matchup and then like every one is a divisional matchup. And then the Steelers Raven’s can always play that Knight game. Cause I would much rather see that than like saints Falcons. Although Sean, as you know, that was a great time off the grid ever year. Yeah. So I got the joy of coming back a day, two and a half later and seeing if I covered, where are you going this year? You know, probably somewhere in the desert, somewhere away from people. I’ve had an insane run on Thanksgiving a day as far as picking games, going against a spread.
I went three and Oh last year. And including a Moneyline play by the bills, upsetting the Cowboys. Awesome time. Even hit like a three team parlay. And it was a lot of pressure because my, uh, father-in-law, we were visiting him in Las Vegas and he does, he’s not a huge gamble or a football guy. So he took all my picks and all my bets and I’m like watching the game, sweating out the bets with him. And uh, he cashed so that, that always feels good. It takes the pressure off. We actually get some Christmas day games.
In fact, a saints, they’re gonna play on Christmas day in the Superdome against the Vikings for 30 kick. I think that’s probably East coast of game and it’s the, uh, it’s the first NFL game on a Friday since 2009. I think that was like a weird, again, maybe like a Christmas, new year’s Eve type thing. I like it. I mean they are the, those teams admit in the playoffs before with some classic games. So I’m a, I’m, I’m, I think that’s one of the better match-ups so far. As far as the Eagles, a Eagles schedule feel pretty good about it.
That Week nine by, that’s always key. Uh, I’m looking forward to the game in Lambeau. So it’s, I mean we’ve had a good, we’ve got a decent run out of there. They go to the Lambo December six. I like, they don’t have three a road games in a row. They’ve had that previously. That’s always a huge pain in the ass. Sean, can we circle games? Sure. Week 15, Miami host’s, the new England Patriots. Well that’s also a week one. We have a baby fucking with dolphins go up there a week.
No, I think that’s a compelling match. I’m just saying wait for new England to go down there in the heat that whatever that number is. Two is going to be catching points, but I mean I agree with you. That’s got great potential, but you’re trying to minimize my grade point Week One though, having to go against a guy with like the legendary record against rookie quarterbacks. I think it’s a very compelling story. You know what else is compelling story? The last time the Eagles opened up a season in Washington like they do in 2020 I don’t know if you remember right, but I want to a hundred thousand dollars on draft Kings or lost $800,000 depending on your look at it and the Eagles toll scenes back in the NFL.
Yes. And Eagles. One of the super bowl Toesy and I’m coming for you as soon as you get on Twitter look at, I’m trying to track him down again. If anyone. I think now that he had, he must have a Cowboy’s email address. Yeah, we got it to do here to the contact. Uh, I mean, yeah, we got Joe Theismann on. You don’t think we can get Scott come on. Are you kidding me man? Giant second, second, hardest schedule if you, uh, if you’re using when the wind totals.
Okay. Belkin’s the toughest, uh, the Colts have the easiest schedule. And if you see this graphic, I’m guessing this comes from Warren sharp or something like that. It’s not even close to the Colts. If you, if you use wind total as the metric to determine if a team is a harder, easy, you rank them that way. The Colts have the easiest and I and Colby can see this. The Colts have the easiest by a, a just an absolutely tremendous margin. Is it me or do I feel like the Colts always have an easy schedule?
Maybe cause the divisions just tra. I mean it must be a, a divisional matchup thing because Tennessee is right there at number two. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like, of course Kansas city Texans, that’s the opening Thursday night game. Um, yeah, I don’t know the texts and seemed to get a lot of prime time games. Would it be nice if they had Deandra Atkins there, but instead David Johnson, I liked David man. But yeah, it’s a bad trade Patriots. A still seeing a, a decent amount of primetime games with even without Brady.
They weak two at Seattle’s. Didn’t fee for a man Week nine at the, at the New York jets week 10 versus the Ravens 14 versus the Rams 16 versus the bills. Like maybe those games towards the end they get flexed out if there’s Sunday night, but a, yeah, I don’t know. Colby, what are they any, any big thoughts on the, uh, on the schedule really so far? Uh, well, I mean, I can tell you a week one, you know, Brady at new Orleans, uh, I think it was a very going to be with grant coming back and everything.
I think that one stood out when I went through the schedule is like, Oh, and I think also you get a rematch of half of the Texans and chiefs we shot. Do you remember? We were in Vegas, weren’t the saints 10 point favorites against someone last year? Week One and they got upset outright. It was a Falcons. Oh, was the box probably write the book of the box. It’s magic. It’s magic. We could see that again. Well I don’t know if the soon to be that high, but I mean to two chiefs Texans a rematch of that playoff game or with the Texas wear a black 21 nothing right at 20 for nothing.
I think see that potentially come on, I just saw the Redskins beat writers or the, I’m sorry, the Cowboys beat writers. Cowboys get cushy start. They start to love. I love how cocky the Cowboys starts out on the road against the Rams in the new stadium. Like supposedly how many, if that stadium opens as scheduled Week One what is the split there for the fan base? It’s going to be a home game for the Cowboys. Yeah, and week two is when the are supposed to open that stadium against the chiefs.
Oh man, dude, is there one like 70 30 if you’re, if you’re Kansas city, the NFL. Just no favors. You just won the super bowl. Now Week to two trip to LA to see a new stadium. Everyone from Kansas city’s gonna, they gonna take one van and just show up. You would think that the NFL has been trying to get a job, you know LA back on the map on football wise you would think they put Jacksonville at at one of the LA times. Give them a shot of the game. Can we talk about the spreads? What’s the, what are we doing? We’re talking about some messing around playing Dungeons and dragons.
You know we’re teasing it. We’re just massage in it but let’s just, let’s just go in there and I’m looking, I got this great graphic and for what do you have? What Lines do you have up in front of you? Well right now the only last week he only lives, we acknowledge as the ones over at MyBookie dot. AIG other non non reputable Sports books have some lines and it’s fun. Let’s do just a rapid fire. Week One again, the pixel probably changed, but just probably games, baby games to get the pictures and run us through. Kramer. What do we got? I got to, I got to pull up the numbers.
Um, look. How’s your dexterity over there? We’ll do, but Week One uh, what’s up? Alright, I’m searching hard. I’m searching. Really. I have it. I’ll, I’ll text it to you right now. Kramer, how do you not, do you know how to use good? Yeah, I know what I use to Google. Alright, I’ll send it to you for sending over in text. Pull that right up. There’s some, uh, I mean, just some interesting numbers. Giant Steelers. Week One Daniel Jones is Titans Broncos.
Colby, your jets. They pay the bills. You’re a real asshole for making me feel stupid. All right, so do we just want to rattle them? Texas cheat. Texans cheat. Tens minus 10 for the chiefs. Is this not a Thursday night football is in Kansas city. Yes, of course. The raise in the bank. 10 points be a big number. I’m a, I’m, I’m taking the dog here even though I’m still pissed at the Texans. Hopefully we are out in Vegas doing a livestream show.
We have to go for the first time. You forget. We do the live stream. It’s a whole event. Seahawks, Falcon, Seahawks minus one. Are you going to, are you are a Colby? I’m going to pick a game. Oh, I’ll take the points. I said it was two months to 10 and the NFL man, there’s always a bit of a hangover after that. Super bowl chief’s the first ever. Yeah, right. I mean like 50 years and just, yeah, I think the hangovers always a strong thing for everyone. We saw the Patriots lose to the chiefs one year right after they won.
Yeah. It’s tough. It’s a lot of, a lot of pressure. Lot of emotion. That’s a policy out there crying at rapid firing guys. Bring a minus one against the Falcons. I assume this is in Atlanta. I’m going to Seattle. I’ll take Seattle as a road favorite. Yeah, I mean it’s, it’s, it’s worrisome to take them on the road early in the season, but it’s a lot of travel. But first game of the season they got that Week will Dan Quinn be fired?
Week 12. Uh, I mean he definitely is going to be one of the guy’s favored to be fired first. Uh, I’ll say, I mean we, we’d have to pull up his schedule, but I would say he, he’ll be within the two top three coaches to get a buyer. I think he might be number one. Eagles Redskins, Eagles minus five and a half. That’s not a touchdown goes with asking you to wear, Oh, this is in Philly. Oh, this is in Washington. Doesn’t matter what, what have you seen about this Redskins office?
They can put up points against the Eagles. So that’s the problem. Yeah. I’m here in a dream team coming out of Philly. I’m a hero. No one said that. And they got hurt. They had, they finally have the wishbone complete. I’m going to throw for you for a one 50 and two touchdowns. I think Hertz, we’ll get to carry in this game to all friends at Patriots Les than a touchdown. O give me the pack and a half to give me the past. Give me the dolphins baby. We saw it in Madden MAYhem this dolphins team, scrappy and I, if I’m not mistaken, this is one of the numbers they got bet quick.
Uh, I think it opened North of seven at seven and a half and quickly got back down. So that’s certainly something to look at. Ah, I’ll be a neutral over here. And tell us your opinion. This is, what did they cover in new England last year? Is that the game where they just, that was in Miami. One in new England. Did they, they want, damn it. They got that wind knocked them out to the, to see Patriots are gonna suck. They didn’t have a quarterback. Can we have the dolphins, Packers, Vikings, Viking’s minus three.
Where’s this? This is in Minnesota. In the spaceship. Not prime time. Not prime time. Give me the Packers. I’m all over to the, um, I’m going Vikings here. I, I think the, just the chemistry issues that green Bay has going, Vikings are great early on in the season. Jeff Blake kind of talked about that. Yeah, he did. And we’ll get to that in a second here. Great. And what are you doing? I mean, I, I was, I was rewarded for taking the Packers on week in, week one, last year against the bears.
I’ll do it again. It’s Kurt cousins. This is a big game. Kurt Kurt traps that Kurt trips Colts. Jags Colts minus seven mentioned mania. Baby cults are going to just role to make the brig CPU a simulation like Madden where mince you fumbles and they still give it to them. This is called the defense is for real. And uh, and I think Phillip rivers, they got, they got a lot going on and just huge coaching advantage cults roll baby. Throw that in a tease already.
I like that. I love that. And a tease bears lions. It’s going to be a pig in Detroit. Give me the bears. I’ll go lions here. And that’s a sneaky. Yeah, that’s a sneaky. Stay away from me. Stafford’s back. You gotta remember Staffels are assuming staff or this assumes staffers, the quarterback, but he was out. It’s the different team when he’s back in there. I think, you know, Patricia is a horrible coach, but they looked all right though. Before a staffer got hurt last year.
We kind of forget because it was so early, but they, they seem like a decent and they almost need the chiefs in home. I’ll take the Lines give me a close game. Yeah, it will be a good game. But I think there’s, I think everyone on the teams out on Mitch. So I think there’s going to be some confidence issues for a man after the first quarter. Lion’s close. A favorite in this One Browns, Ravens, Ravens minus nine. Way too high. Give me the Browns. Even though I hate the brows. Brands play a tough, I feel. And they got their offensive lines better now. It was last year when we watched Lamar Jackson throw for five or six touchdowns against the dolphins.
A week one when we were out there in Vegas. Uh, we might’ve seen the best stretch we’re ever gonna see of that team of the Ravens and the Browns have talent. Last year it was, you know, there was a little bit too much hype, perhaps flying under the radar. I, I unfortunately I might have to take the points with the Browns has been very vocal about this upcoming season. It’s a surprise. Uh, what a bummer. Jets. Bill’s Bill’s minus five and a half at home. Give me the bills and stop it. I’ll go, uh, I’ll go jets.
This is a field goal game and really, why is it a touchdown game? I think the jets are able to move the ball a little bit on the bills. Adam gaze. I like Robbie Anderson. They got Frank or a baby. Yeah, that’s true. It’s just the gist. A grown ass man, Ray, a Raiders, Panthers, Panthers minus one. Oh, I love, I love this for Carolina. Matt roll new era. Teddy Bridgewater guide doesn’t turn the ball over. Christian McCaffrey and this is week one, so I mean there’s, I think there’s going to be a real conditioning issue and you put the Raiders out in that Carolina heat in early September.
The Raiders or a speed team in, in the grass always plays long in Carolina, West coast. Go on to the East coast. I Panthers. You could lock that up now. Wow. I mean again, another team, we didn’t really see them start with a quarterback last year, you know? Yeah. We got excited about Kyle Allen, but Teddy Bridgewater and PJ water for a Walker for that matter are probably better than anyone they ran out there last year. Do you feel Grier included? I just don’t, this should probably be a, this should be a three point.
Do you think the NFL is trying to give them a favor of having them play Carolina so then in the season opener or they could be one thing to know on Monday night football when they open up in I’m into conspiracies and give me the Raiders. There’s no way the Raiders as an organization are going to properly schedule a trip to the East coast where the body clocks to be. Right. Panthers role here, this, they should be three chargers, Bengals chargers minus three and half supercharges and that’s massively disrespectful.
I’m going to tie rod Taylor. The Bengals just drafted the number one pick for a reason. Charlie’s got a good defense man. You look at their time, their talent, their good. Why is this three and a half Sean? I don’t know. All the Cincy fans are going to be out since he is. I mean we were at Justin and this game’s and since the, I’m sorry. Yeah. Oh okay. Yeah I was trying, I was trying to track what you’re, where you’re going. They’re cramming the charger is a three and a half a point road favorite. I’ll actually, it’s interesting cause I do like taking rookie quarterbacks on that first start at home because they can’t figure them out.
Maybe they have a couple of trick plays. Zack Taylor, this feels like a field goal game. Even though I’m saying that I’ll go chargers minus three and a half. I think tie rod actually is the starter to start the season. Um, Joe Perot might just have a bumpy start. Yeah, and that charge his defense is a legit, yeah. Books. Saints. I think this was one of the games you threw out, Colby, a Saint’s minus four and a half, so yeah, we’re not seeing a 10 point number like we did a couple of years ago. I’m going to bet that that that line gets closer the same week.
At this point. We should write this down on our Gambling manifesto, but fate the saints early on. Yeah, they always get it off to a slow start. A Sean Peyton in September is Ruff and bucks. We’ll be looking to really make a statement. Give me the bucks catching four and a half. I’ll take the bucks as well. Cards Niners perfect timing Kramer, we’re about to see that in Madden MAYhem all over the Cardinals getting a touch down to more Niners minus seven and a half at home. They will probably go up on one hand. It feels like a low number on the other.
This arm, if the defense can just take a step to being below average from bad or atrocious the, I think the offense takes a step forward. We saw Kyler, he was frisky. This team lost close games. They tied the lions. They probably, you know, he was frisky. They played the Niners good two last year. They at both times they played them well. I think the Niners, the one thing about that nighters Defence, they struggle with someone who has, has mobility and you know, we have to see what they look like without the, the big guy book, they’re up front.
I’m going to take the points as well with you, Sean, with you, I think. I think this could get down to a touchdown. I think you might want to grab a seven and a half. Really. Cowboys at Rams, Cowboys minus two and a half Rams money line. Give me the Rams as a home dog. Baby CD is going to be a lack
Speaker 0 (29m 42s): of lack of room cancer. I mean do we know is Andy Dalton starting a deck is not a scientist
Speaker 5 (29m 47s): deal yet? I probably, this is, this is not the correct, I mean, why, why or the Rams not minus two and a half a year and at a minimum like, yeah, if you don’t want to go Rams minus three Cowboys are kind of like Duke or something or Notre Dame and football where I feel like they get, they get points. Cowboys were eating eight last year and you’re going to make, I’m a road favorite against the team that are you sure we don’t like Jared Goff and it sucks to have to route for Jared golf. Week One bring a Blake Bortles but I don’t like, especially because Aaron Donald’s still there, right?
He’s still like, Oh yeah, Zeke had a, I don’t know. This one is puzzling, but we also do hate the Cowboys. Steelers giants. We said we were going to do this fast and we didn’t do the fast. The Steelers Johns, the Steelers up right away. A Steelers minus three on the road. Give me a Steelers. Are you serious? Even the Steelers, all of this respectfully, he’s going to go off. It’s going to be Epic. I can not wait. I love the excuse to start football at 4:00 PM on the West coast on Monday night. The late game to love that Bronco’s minus two and a half at home against the Titans.
Once again, early games in Denver. You gotta take the Broncos massive event,
Speaker 0 (31m 4s): right? I feel like this, I’m surprised this number. I’m surprised it’s not like Titans minus one. I mean one of the Titans were in the AFC championship game. I like the Bronx in a manner that home field is three no, but Ryan, this line is put out for the public. I’m surprised that they’re already had unit Broncos minus two and a half. I think they’re going to get a lot of money. I’m going to be surprised with the no, no one actually likes the Titans. Hashtag tighten up baby. Okay.

Speaker 5 (32m 39s): shut in
Speaker 7 (32m 40s): these days? But you know, I got a little bit, you know, just to do some training with some of my kids that I trained. You know, I think I’m going to probably have been the best Corona for the environment I’ve been on a football field. Just me and a kid.
Speaker 0 (32m 52s): Yeah, yeah, no, it’s uh, I mean, and he sort of exercising and get outdoors. Just throw it, throwing the ball around. Have you of course had what, 13 years in the NFL?
Speaker 7 (33m 3s): Yeah. At 14, you know, will give me the extra a year.
Speaker 0 (33m 5s): Okay. Do you mean to short change? I think that was my math, but a, I was watching
Speaker 7 (33m 11s): so I had to get in it. It’s hard to get in that league, man.
Speaker 0 (33m 13s): Oh yeah. Well, yeah, starting out with that. I mean, you had a very long career compared to most, a guy like Sam Bradford walks into the league, plays a couple years, makes a ton of money that has to infuriate you and probably most of the earlier generation,
Speaker 7 (33m 29s): there’s nothing I can do about it. You know, it is what it is. And, um, and, and I tell somebody, young kids all the time, a guy’s in the league now that my nephew would say, Jones, you said the Raiders’. And I tell him to get all of the money you can give a man, get it all. And a bowl. Powell, it’s a warm, you know, sometimes you have to tear it a pass. It sometimes you have to pass the torch or the, they put the next generation, you know, so that’s kinda what we did.
Speaker 0 (33m 54s): Yeah. You really were a, a, you were a pioneer. I mean, when you came in the league, not a ton of African-American quarterbacks, you were, I think you pointed out every city you went to, you were the first African American quarterback for that franchise. So really broke a lot of ground there.
Speaker 7 (34m 10s): Yeah. That, that really wasn’t true. Um, the about that, you know, the first one and the jazz first one and Cincinnati, definitely the first one in the world. And it’s,
Speaker 8 (34m 21s): um, uh,
Speaker 7 (34m 24s): I wasn’t the first and Baltimore,
Speaker 8 (34m 26s): uh, okay.
Speaker 7 (34m 28s): First in Arizona. Sure. And it wasn’t the first in Chicago.
Speaker 9 (34m 34s): That’s crazy. And that’s something that’s bothered me my whole life. You know, I grew up in Washington DC and when you’re a kid, you don’t know race. And I remember, you know, being hearing conversations of like, Oh, well a, you know, a black quarterback can’t win a Superbowl. And I was always like, go home to my mom and my dad and be like, Doug Williams already want a super bowl. I don’t understand mom, what’s going on, you know, human beings, a human being and, and it, it, it’s really crazy that it lasted that long and it probably still lasts. But did coaches ever try to have you play other positions?
Speaker 8 (35m 6s): Uh,
Speaker 7 (35m 9s): when I came out of high school, I was drafted by One university to play quarterback one B one one D one school to play quarterback. Let me correct that. And the only division one school, whatever crew to make the quarterback was East Carolina. That’s why I went there.
Speaker 9 (35m 25s): There we go. Look as a, as an East Carolina guy, they were, you know, first off, this is a, this is a, we’ve had plenty of guests on this. One rate’s for me because you are the best East Carolina quarterback of all time. Top 10 finish in 1991. Talk to me about that year. And really you could, cause you guys kind of had like a Boise state type of a year in 1991.
Speaker 7 (35m 47s): Well, I take it that well or just stay ahead and show.
Speaker 9 (35m 50s): There we go. That’s what I mean. And I should say that I should say that of all people. My apologies
Speaker 7 (35m 57s): first we did it at first. We did it before. .
Speaker 9 (36m 1s): Exactly. Exactly. Can walk me through that year. And how awesome that year was for you.
Speaker 7 (36m 7s): Oh man. It was a, it was a game by game blur. It really was. Cause we, we did a excellent job of moving on to the next game. We never, you know, dwelled on the game that we one day a week before we only focused on the Week and the task at hand. And ah, the coaches did a good job of giving us to do that, you know?
And we knew if we could just stay close enough at the end that we would have an opportunity to win. And that’s what, that’s what happened. People allowed us to stay close to the end and we would just come back to be with them.
Speaker 9 (36m 52s): Yeah. And, and you guys took down, I got a note this right now. You took down a lot of power, five schools, NC state, Syracuse, Pitt, South Carolina, but also you took down to Virginia tech and my cohost here at Virginia tech graduate. So I just want to throw some salt in the wound.
Speaker 5 (37m 7s): Yeah, I mean East Carolina ruined, ruined a couple of years. Not now. 91 was before my time, but still I honestly it goes in this order. Miami, West Virginia, East Carolina and team in terms of teams I hate.
Speaker 9 (37m 23s): Um, now
Speaker 7 (37m 24s): we, we, we, we, we hopefully we can turn it around. We haven’t been able to solidify head coach here in the last couple of years because they were in and out because they aren’t doing the job. It takes a special coach to coach at East Carolina. The problem is we get coaches that went and then they decide to leave and go to the bigger programs, what they think their bigger programs and they wind up getting fired for most programs when they should have stayed at each. Come on. And I think one of the spark coaches we had with his coach, Steve Logan, who baked it for five years.
Speaker 9 (37m 56s): I was just about to bring up coach Logan. Are you, are you still, are you still a, you know, in touch with, with coach Logan? I know my brother lives in Raleigh, North Carolina and he host a radio show down there and he’s absolutely hilarious.
Speaker 7 (38m 9s): Yeah, I have seen him a few times and when I went back to the East Carolina and actually I need to reach out to him first to say Hey, but yeah, um, I follow his son Nathan and fence and on Facebook. Um, so, um, I got his number one from Nate and I think, so I think I just need to reach out to someone Blake now. He was a great guy, still a great guy. I always enjoy it. And then the toes.
Speaker 5 (38m 33s): So Jeff you were a, a, you were a six pick coming out
Speaker 0 (38m 36s): in the ECU, ended up having a ton of success in the league at this, uh, you know, taking a look at this 2020 draft class. Do you see any of these late round quarterbacks? Any of them possibly having some success? Of course. Jordan Love Jacob Easten
Speaker 7 (38m 52s): well, you know, it’s all based on the program. The organization that you go to. I’m going to tell you now, you have organizations that’s in a league that’s guaranteed to get to the playoffs area based on their organization. Shit. You know what the teens, I’m talking about the Patriots, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, um, Penn city. Now, I mean, even when I played a Lieutenant city was in the playoffs every year, you know, um, those teams are in the playoffs.
Every, a green Bay. Um, you know, the organization that they, they involve, those guys go to solidify organization. They always have opportunity to be successful. You know, the belief with a knot thinks it’s one of those seeds down, you know, so, um, no one I’ve played the lead, you know, the saints, we’ll call it the ankle
Speaker 0 (39m 45s): bags over their heads.
Speaker 7 (39m 47s): Yeah. You know, and til 2000 when we all came in and 2000, I don’t know, I have a lot less than that. I was the second 2000 I’ve turned that organization around, you know, and um, wound up getting hurt in the air. Pro same man. That was the last time I’ll play for the saints.
Speaker 0 (40m 2s): Yeah, no 2000. You had a great record. 700 for a 13 touchdowns, only nine interceptions one night. And I didn’t hear him say the Bengals on that list of teams that are set up to win, at least set up organizationally to win. So what do you think about Joe burrow? You think he’s got a shot?
Speaker 7 (40m 21s): Well, they were, how many first rounds were after the quarterbacks of they have had since I left?
Speaker 9 (40m 25s): Oh man. Now, uh, I mean he gets, I think there’s potential. I like bros game now. I don’t know. I mean w w
Speaker 7 (40m 37s): no, I’m going to tell you now the borough will not be successful unless the organization decides to build around this and that is the manta. Is you yet to build around any quarterbacks that they have drafted?
Speaker 9 (40m 49s): Well, correct me if I’m wrong Jeff but uh, I’ve always known like the chargers and the BR, the Bengals to beat some of the cheaper organisations in the league as far as building a football team. Yeah. So there you go. So we’re, we’re praying for Joe burrow
Speaker 7 (41m 5s): and is not the fact that you don’t, it could be cheap, but it’s how you handle business and how you handle your players. You don’t have to be a top tier team to handle your a players. Right. You know, if I was, if I was a oner and I, and I wasn’t the owner that I like to spend a lot of money, I would do other things to bring my players then to make them feel more family, to make the environment feel more family oriented. But no, give them perks.
If I ain’t gotta give them money, I would give him something else. You know,
Speaker 0 (41m 39s): give him a little hookup on the side.
Speaker 7 (41m 42s): Yeah, because I was on a phone on the side. Basically they get an endorsement in the office, in the city, off the field, you know, things like that. You know, there’s other ways, you know you can make up that income, especially with some of your star players. You know, especially with social media today,
Speaker 0 (41m 56s): I really need Steve Tisch to start doing that for the giants and getting these guys in movies, star recruit maybe and let’s go
Speaker 9 (42m 4s): now and your 1995 season when you, when you, I believe you meant that one of your Pro Bowl year, I got a note here that the Bengals, we’re the worst defensive team in the NFL that year. One can only think how good would Jeff Blake be regarded in the world. Had you had a defense man, you had Pickens and Darnay Scot and this offense that was dynamic of how do you look back at those years and think what if,
Speaker 7 (42m 29s): and the year we went to the pro bowl man pick and we led the AFC and every category and all offence and then we were the first or second in passing and AFC and it, all of this stuff. We won seven games, seven,
Speaker 0 (42m 45s): seven, geez. Yeah,
Speaker 7 (42m 47s): call light 21 touchdowns that year we won seven games, you know. So, you know, and, and it is true, you know, defense wins games, defense wins championships. And if you don’t have a good base, a base running game, and if you don’t have a, a, a solid defense that can get turnovers and score points, you can forget it.
Speaker 0 (43m 11s): Now, in, in 95, you actually, you led the AFC and passing touchdowns with 28, but now you look at today’s numbers and it’s completely off the charts. Uh, what do you, what do you think kinda of, what kind of numbers could you imagine playing now with the way the league is officiated and just the way all offenses are run?
Speaker 7 (43m 31s): Well, without the Ozzy or the same as Bries and all the rest of them, but you know, we were at the One average 30,000. It’s a little over 3000 a year, but we ran a ball a lot more. Yeah, we, we had running backs back then that were pound at football and me, you had the Eddie, George, his drone bet their own bed. This is, I had Corey Dillon for a little bit. You know, you had, you know, the Toro Davis is a, you know, we would run that football, you know, um, you know, the head had Brian Westbrook, you know, those guys were carrying the ball, you know, 25 30 plus games, you know, you know, Dallas had in it, you know, they know what’s going on.
25, 20 plus touchdowns of gang, I mean a year.
Speaker 9 (44m 14s): Yeah. W when you’re on the Bengals, did you have a team that you hate like that you just dread, dreaded to play? Like who is the arch rival there? That was the Steelers. Was that the Browns as the Oilers that you just hated playing against the breads? Why is that?
Speaker 7 (44m 30s): I hate a plan of Browns because I’ve always thought that we were better than now, but somehow they always lined up the, but it was total opposite when we played this bird, we always ate at Pittsburgh.
Speaker 0 (44m 42s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (44m 44s): No idea of why. I don’t know why it was that way, but when we played a Brown and they seemed like we could just never, never get over that hump, but we always, at any given time be Pittsburgh.
Speaker 0 (44m 56s): Now, you mentioned you were on the, uh, or, or you mentioned Brian Westbrook and I, I know you were a member of the 2004 Eagle’s team a year in the QB room with Donovan McNabb. Koy Detmer. I always heard this as an urban legend that Koy Detmer used to go on road trips and he would only bring a toothbrush and the playbook. Is that correct?
Speaker 7 (45m 17s): That’s the Dallas training camp.
Speaker 0 (45m 18s): Oh, okay.
Speaker 7 (45m 21s): That was, yeah, that was a road trip.
Speaker 0 (45m 26s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (45m 27s): Yeah, he did to bring it to brushes, the playbook. That’s it.
Speaker 0 (45m 31s): That’s great. That’s awesome. That’s a legendary guy. The guy can’t be a married man.
Speaker 7 (45m 36s): Every year he would go by, it wouldn’t never ship his cars or anything. Every year he would go file like a thousand dollar car.
Speaker 0 (45m 44s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (45m 45s): Yes. The RAF on practice two is two back to wherever he was living. But now that the cool thing was every year he would take that car and he would give it away too, like for donation or a charity or they would give it to somebody.
Speaker 0 (45m 59s): That’s cool. That’s awesome. He always seemed like a good dude. He seemed like a very regular like kind of blue collar man’s man.
Speaker 7 (46m 6s): Yeah, definitely. Definitely. Definitely. So
Speaker 0 (46m 9s): I got, he’s got a little country.
Speaker 7 (46m 11s): If you gave him 10 pairs of sweats, those of sweats he gonna wear for the season.
Speaker 0 (46m 17s): Well, so that, that brings up,
Speaker 7 (46m 18s): well, it’s not going to go by custom suit. He’s not going to go buy high Gucci’s a little bit. Nah, don’t exist.
Speaker 0 (46m 25s): That brings up a good question because NFL quarterbacks, I mean there’s been a handful of characters in the bunch who is the outside of who we just spoke about. Any other kind of strange interactions or kind of interesting experiences in the quarterback room?
Speaker 7 (46m 39s): Oh no, no, I’m not a think about that. One. I made got played for so long and most of the time I was, you know, later in my career I was the old G in a quarter of a row. So I kinda said to tempo, you know, early in my career though, you know,
Speaker 8 (46m 56s): okay.
Speaker 7 (46m 56s): Early in my career it was a little bit different. I was born in a learning phase, I was more, I was one of the learning phase and I was more into a,
Speaker 8 (47m 9s): okay,
Speaker 7 (47m 9s): Nope. Trying to understand the game and play it again. So I was kinda more, you know, eager to learn and see how it can get better. But once you, you know, you’d become a better to get, you know, eight plus years in the league, you know, you see one play you see on a mall at that point. You know, I think that was a problem between Karen Roz’s and um, Mike McCarthy. But Mike, I know Mike personally cause he was Bob as a coordinator. That, and then the wall is, and Mike is a very, you know, you know, cross the T’s.
Dot. The I’s type of guy, a very technical, very, you know, I’m going to be rapid, rapid, rapid, you know, they know every, every game plan. If we don’t, we go to the install. We going on with the same basic, OK, all hits, what’s going on over there and read everything. And I know Aaron is like, dude, I’ve been here 10 years. I’m not going of all, here’s a guy.
Speaker 0 (48m 5s): Yeah,
Speaker 7 (48m 7s): I’m sure that’s what happened.
Speaker 0 (48m 9s): Yeah. So you, you kind of theorized that maybe that’s what caused the, the kind of beef between MacCarthy McCarthy and Rogers is that he’s very regimented and Rogers likes to freestyle. He probably doesn’t want to drill the same thing over and over again.
Speaker 7 (48m 22s): Yeah, I’m going to do it. I’ve been doing it with 10 years. I’m not going on with that play with you at all.
Speaker 0 (48m 26s): I feel, I mean, I’m, I’m with Aaron on that one.
Speaker 7 (48m 30s): No, I’m not doing it again. I’m not, I’m not going over every detail, every, the detail of each play because we’ve done that for the last five years
Speaker 9 (48m 40s): right now. Jeff
Speaker 7 (48m 42s): I know how to, I know how to run that. Plus
Speaker 9 (48m 44s): no. Jeff let me ask you your thoughts on Jalen hurts. It’s a guy that I think is, it was criminally underrated coming into the draft. I had to read it a lot higher than, than a lot of uh, experts. So called experts. Uh, what’s your analysis when you look at Jalen hurts? I know Sacramento pick by the Eagle’s and my buddy here, a cohost Sean is a Eagle fan so I’m sure he’s going to want to hear what you want to say. What do you think of Jalen hurts? It is the transition to the NFL.
Speaker 7 (49m 9s): A bank, you have a tremendous upside. He’s a definitely a gamer.
Speaker 10 (49m 15s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (49m 15s): Speaking when you some football games, um, it all depends on how much they develop them as an NFL quarterback. It’s one thing to do be, you know a a a player but its nothing to get developed a deal. NFL quarterback, they just can’t walk in it. And just the NFL quarterback you have to do to sell to be that way. No, you have to be taught certain things that if the games don’t catch up with you, you know, you see guys like Patrick Mahomes One who actually wanted, so for this year and she got late the March as to who we’re MPP the shit.
They can be like cam Newton in two years. They don’t watch out.
Speaker 0 (49m 52s): Yeah. You were. And where do you think a cam Newton ends up a land and he’s kinda, the musical QB chairs have kind of settled in. He doesn’t really have a landing spot right now. Where do you think he ends up?
Speaker 10 (50m 4s): Okay.
Speaker 7 (50m 4s): I was thinking of Miami.
Speaker 0 (50m 6s): Mm. Yeah, I could see that. Get, you know, give them a little, uh, give them a starter before they had to go to the back room.
Speaker 7 (50m 14s): I don’t know. It was, I don’t know. It was a hundred percent. I don’t know who I was. A kid they make, they get that contact right now, but a guy like amp would come in and play right away and they don’t have the tools set for a couple of years, one or two years and let him learn and come in someplace and they can run it for a year, so to for the next two years of that and then two we’ll come come in after that. You know, I don’t think it’s a great idea of sometimes they just split brick exam started. I think it’s a learning curve there and a lot of times the Atlanta curve is said on the side.
I didn’t know the field, but you do on the field, man, to get Rick in the gun become a gunshot. You do the same.
Speaker 0 (50m 52s): Sean, can I give you a dark horse for a cam Newton? Sure. Deshaun Watson gets hurt a lot. Bill O’Brien’s a maniac as a GM that could just work a little two quarterback system and maybe maybe Kim’s doing that. He’s just waiting on the sidelines waiting for maybe a a, an early injury and then he signs with that team. You, you actually do your own personal coaching. You got your own football camp. Jeff Blake training.com. Is there anyone, is there a quarterback in the league that you see their game and you go, Oh man, I wish I was in the QB room with them. I wish I was coaching them up cause I, I really feel like they are good but maybe I could give them a little bit more.
Is there anyone you’d really look forward to coaching in the league?
Speaker 7 (51m 30s): No. See Patrick Mahomes I really can help as mechanics that I really can help as mechanics as well. Um, as well they are accurate. You know they can play. Yeah. But what they’re doing now, they don’t it cause they young when they get to be five, two years of leave, they hope to be able to do that though. I’m always, you have to have perfect, you have to have better mechanics, better at work, you know, to be there to align yourself to give to your target. Now you have a gunslinger, now he’s a big deal. You can put your to contort your body, all the different types of positions and still make that bro.
But when you 32 34 and that ain’t going to happen, bro.
Speaker 0 (52m 9s): Yeah.
Speaker 7 (52m 10s): You got to give back to basics, you know, so I would love to teach them the proper fundamentals when it comes to a foot work and basically to get to that by their lives to make the rules. It’s like two brief debrief all with you. The speed around they can throw. He never threw an awkward position. Why 40 years old?
Speaker 0 (52m 28s): Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean a similar thing with a, you know, Tom Brady, I mean that’s probably partly why he’s been able to hang around for so long.
Speaker 7 (52m 36s): Exactly. And proper mechanics, proper foot work. It’s just the speed around made to grow. They do a little crazy. Saw a sign on it. That was a pattern
Speaker 0 (52m 44s): back behind the back. It’s like, dude, come on. And I didn’t see him. Brady doing a no look pass. Come on a exactly. It’s Tom Brady. You mentioned the saints and of course they’ve kind of dabbled with the two quarterback system where they have one. They bring the other guy in. They bring in taste some Hill. I kind of watching that game. You like taste some Hill.
Speaker 7 (53m 7s): I like to know how you use this grimy man crime easier just to get the ball in my hand, bro. Let me fall out.
Speaker 0 (53m 18s): Do you think it would be a successful starter?
Speaker 7 (53m 22s): See I, I, I see him being like a Lamar Jackson plan.
Speaker 0 (53m 27s): Wow. Okay. How do you praise?
Speaker 7 (53m 29s): They do the same thing and with him like you do at Lamar Jackson, he will be held.
Speaker 0 (53m 34s): Yeah. How do you feel about Jamis Winston there?
Speaker 7 (53m 40s): That’s a good for Jamie. Jamie’s got to learn some football.
Speaker 11 (53m 43s): Yeah.
Speaker 7 (53m 45s): Any novelty Dodd and boxing bags. These guys,
Speaker 0 (53m 48s): that video is a video. It’s pretty funny. They can see now. I mean Jesus, he’s got a lot of things going for him. He’s going to land a nice contract I think in a year.
Speaker 7 (53m 59s): My son, my son James, he was like, dude, you really need to call my dad.
Speaker 0 (54m 5s): Yeah. That that training a video he did. He did as a QB coach. How about have you ever put anyone through an exercise like that?
Speaker 7 (54m 14s): I don’t put anyone through anything. They are not going to experience on a football.
Speaker 0 (54m 20s): That’s the most complimentary way you can say no, of course not. That’s crazy. I like it. But yet with tastes him with tastes. I’m a, I agree with you. He’s a, he’s got a lot of potential and I think of a team did the same Lamar Jackson style where they put the roster around him and really build the playbook around a skillset he could be successful. But what do you think about the idea of this like this two quarterback system where or they have drew breeze and then there’s some of it and taste some Hill. I got to imagine that that throws off breeze is rhythm and momentum or do you think there is a quite sure
Speaker 7 (54m 55s): saves. It saves him, it prolongs his career just like it just like this. This is like LeBron coming up for something for 20 minutes at a game.
Speaker 0 (55m 6s): I like that. So a cooler back, road management, QB load management. It’s the future.
Speaker 7 (55m 11s): Yeah. It’s just Madden. It’s just management. You can’t run LeBraun two, two crazy. You can’t play them the whole game. He needs a minute song. Especially when, especially when it comes to a fight before a play on top of
Speaker 0 (55m 23s): so, but Jeff if you were in that Saint’s playoff game, you’re, you’re, you’re starting your drew Brees. You wouldn’t be a little annoyed when they’re bringing in taste some Hill to run these different packages or you’d be maybe okay with it?
Speaker 7 (55m 35s): No, because I run on them.
Speaker 0 (55m 39s): That’s a good point.
Speaker 7 (55m 41s): I’m not running, I’m not running over the RPO.
Speaker 0 (55m 45s): No,
Speaker 7 (55m 46s): I’m going to be mad. Why? Because at the end of the day it ain’t about me. It’s about winning a championship and if he can help us win a championship, cause at the end of the day, as you breathe, I’m going to be true breeze case. They can’t never take that away from now. So of a black man, they play a fireplace at office and we, and we win and we go to the super bowl and we win. He brings, I mean if I played every game, you have to understand when you, when you, when you, when you get to be there in the NFL, it ain’t about your accolades.
No. Mo is about trying to win that chip.
Speaker 11 (56m 26s): Yeah. Now,
Speaker 0 (56m 28s): yeah, of course. You played on the 2004 Eagles. Andy Reed was the head coach. You played a teammate of a Eric QB enemy there where you, where you’re ruined big for the chiefs in the super bowl.
Speaker 7 (56m 41s): Of course. Well, I play with Eric. Eric was, Myra I’ve made with arrogance is a nanny. It was my roommate for four years. It’s this and that. It was about here’s my roommate on a road for four years.
Speaker 9 (56m 52s): He needs a head coaching job man. Right. Can we agree to that? Like how was he not a head coach?
Speaker 7 (56m 57s): Eric? Eric is a great coach, man. He’s a great player. It’s a great coach. He’s a, he’s, he’s, I’m going to tell you something, and a lot of people don’t know this, but one of the players that had the most respect on our bingos team with Airbnb, we had some characters, but with a step in a row, that depth stuff halted. It holds it. But they were definitely had much respect for EAP. Definitely.
So he still has that same stigma about him.
Speaker 0 (57m 33s): Yeah. Well, hopefully he gets a hater of men. Sean lead that man command in the room. Hopefully he gets a head coaching job and then, you know, it gives you a ring and says, come on Jeff we need to coach up some get you to get to go on there in the league.
Speaker 7 (57m 45s): You know, I saw him last year at the, I’m at the, uh, uh, black coaches, Nast at a black coach. It’s a, um, um, um, often, I think it was a quarterback coach’s and office coordinators deal with it that we have in Atlanta in the year that, um, James Harris puts on, on, um, and, um, he could talk to me. He’s like, Hey dude, I need to talk to you. I need, I may need you to come to Kansas city to a summer and, and I, he never, it never came to fruition, but I think maybe I’m going to have something going on.
Not sure.
