00:00Jared Goff has more touchdown
00:04receptions this year than Jalen Waddle.
00:08Oof.
00:12I mean, Nico Collins has more receiving yards than Waddle in
00:16that drop on the swing pass.
00:20Oof. You want me to tell you how that works?
00:24Nah. Not today.
00:28I'm just saying. I'm not excusing it, but
00:32it happened.
00:36It wasn't even the drop that bothered me. It was, oh no.
00:40And then he kind of just watched it for a second, then realizes,
00:44oh no, that was backwards. Oh no, too late. It's in the Titans' hands.
00:48Ima just play like it was no big deal.
00:52He kind of was like, should I just walk away? It's kind of like a kid when he
00:56spills something in the kitchen. He goes, if I just walk away, who's gonna know? Who's gonna know?
01:00Except that they kept putting
01:04Seahawks-Lions on the same screen, and I just kept
01:08seeing their score, and I was looking at our score, and I was
01:12like, that used to be us.
01:16That used to be us, baby. 40 points.
01:20I tell you what, you know what's hilarious about this?
01:24At least
01:28we learned a valuable lesson in these last four weeks.
01:32That you can't just plug anybody in to play quarterback
01:36in this offense. And you know who else
01:40is learning that? San Francisco.
01:44Same system, and everybody thinks it's the system.
01:48It's the system. It's not the quarterback. They got talent around them.
01:52Quarterback just gets the ball out of his hand. Not that easy.
01:56Isn't that a problem, though? No, why? Shouldn't it not
02:00be that way? You're so dependent on- Hold on. Let's be clear.
02:04Okay? Go look around the league
02:08that most people are all in on
02:12a quarterback. Okay? There are some exceptions,
02:16and Atlanta did it, and we called them idiots.
02:20So there are teams that have
02:24done it. Hell, back in the day, Washington drafted
02:28two quarterbacks in the same damn draft. Yep, sure did.
02:32And we called them stupid, and one of them's still playing.
02:36Well, kind of.
02:40Yeah, he's out there. I mean, I wouldn't- I mean, so is Aaron Rodgers.
02:44I'm just saying, he's still playing in the NFL.
02:48Of course, because it's not that easy.
02:52A hot dog? What are you, Kobayashi?
02:56Jeez. You know what?
03:00I don't blame him. This is depression.
03:04Dolphin depression. This is what it's done to us. But I've been up since 5 o'clock.
03:08I understand, but hot dog?
03:12Did you grill it, or was it leftovers? No, leftovers. I just heated it up.
03:16That's a gamble. No, that's what happens when you go to the refrigerator and you got
03:2010 minutes, 15 minutes before the show starts, and you're like, I could have
03:24this yogurt, another yogurt, or
03:28oh, what's under here? Hot dog. Alright. Yeah, I was
03:32a little- I was uncle on the two-a last night.
03:36I was like, hey. Also, by the way, didn't help the case that their backup quarterback
03:40may have been an upgrade over their starting quarterback.
03:44There's a perfect example when you draft somebody and you throw him in, and he might not be ready.
03:48Will Levis is sitting there and goes, I didn't see the
03:526'7 guy right there. I didn't see him. Hey, guys.
03:56My arm feels much better now. Ah, don't worry about it. I don't think it is.
04:00I don't think, Will, you take it easy. You look like you're limping. It's my
04:04arm, though. No, there's a limp.
04:08Did you see the interview at halftime? They say, so, if he's healthy, yeah,
04:12we'll put him back in there. Seriously, he's on the
04:16sideline doing push-ups, and he ain't healthy. Will Levis is sitting there doing
04:20CrossFit to prove that he should be on the field.
04:24Not so much. I'm totally good.
04:28I promise, I'm totally good to go back in now.
04:32Oh, man. They lost to that team. Twice. They're never gonna win
04:36again. It feels like they're never gonna win again. It feels like it. I don't even know
04:40what it's like. I don't even count that touchdown they scored. It feels like they're never gonna be a real
04:44football team again. I was gonna say 12 straight quarters. It feels like football prison.
04:48All I know is I've never seen injured
04:52or weren't playing. And I don't care what you do.
04:56You ain't winning. But, Leroy, how are they all hurt without playing?
05:00Again, I brought this up during
05:04preseason, and I kept bringing it up. In order to get
05:08paid for football, don't you have to play football? Not practice football.
05:12Play football.
05:16Oh, my God. Then our boys hurt again.
05:20I know. The science game topped them on the back of the shoulders.
05:24It's not that. But understand that tape
05:28up Jalen Phillips.
05:32But all that pressure goes somewhere.
05:36And so, you know,
05:40sometimes it's just a natural thing
05:44coming back from a serious injury because you put so much pressure
05:48on other parts of your body to compensate, even though
05:52you're not trying to. It made me worried because it was something that
05:56was clearly bothering him throughout the game, and he was trying to battle through it.
06:00He had it wrapped, so maybe it was bothering him before it ended. Maybe.
06:04You can see he was pissed off about it, and then he came in. He had that great play
06:08where he batted the ball out of the air.
06:12But, yeah, when he went back to locker room,
06:16it was such a bummer. You know a player knows
06:20when he comes off the field, and he don't even try to get back in the game.
06:24He just walks in. He knew something was up.
06:28Kind of buckled in the hallway, too. As he was walking, his knee
06:32kind of buckled a little bit, too.
06:36So, I don't know how to look at that.
06:40You want to know how they're leading off
06:44first take today? Yeah.
06:48Tyreek Hill leaving Patrick Mahomes could go down as the biggest mistake
06:52ever. Okay.
06:56A lot of people are saying, though, the Chiefs
07:00should pick the bones of the Dolphins and trade back for them today.
07:04That's the big thing. No. Because Rasheed Rice is hurt. What are you
07:08doing? I'm telling you, that's the fodder.
07:12What would they give us? There's literally nothing. There's nothing to give
07:16except 30th picks, 31st picks. They're going to be in the Super Bowl for
07:20the next five years, it looks like. What deal with the devil did they make?
07:24I don't know. Or maybe... Nah. I like
07:28Mahomes' idea better. Deal with the devil? Someone made a deal with the devil, and it was Andy Reid.
07:32You saw how funny he got all of a sudden? Come on. Jovial.
07:36It just doesn't happen. Got away from Philadelphia. Wow.
07:40Maybe he's finally getting, like, reward points back for all those
07:44years of setting.
07:48As you were watching that game, and
07:52watching the guys on the field,
07:56I could tell very early, wow, they're not better than
08:00the other team.
08:04Everything to it, Leroy, is
08:08yes, there are reasons, and I know that you got the
08:12perspective on the injuries and whatnot, but then also when the windows are there to make
08:16plays, it's either a penalty or it's a drop.
08:20There's never a moment for anybody to pick them up and give them a little
08:24bit of life. Right.
08:28Even if, like, Tyreek, if the ball gets to Tyreek one of those two times,
08:32it just feels hopeless.
08:36But again, you're expecting
08:40a guy who, if he made those plays all the time, would probably be starting
08:44somewhere. And you're asking, you know what I mean?
08:48But here's the other thing, though, and this is where I agree with you.
08:52How many times did you deal with a quarterback?
08:56Because there were some quarterbacks, which isn't many. Right. I know. I mean, one of
09:00them, I think, was Warren Moon. So he's a Hall of Famer. But how many times
09:04did you deal with this? And should
09:08it be this hard, especially with a talented team, I guess? Have you ever dealt with
09:12this case? Because, dude, I can't believe it's this bad.
09:16I look around the league, and I see, oh, that story happened.
09:20That story happened. Now, I'm not asking for, you know, an Andy Dalton first-week
09:24performance. I'm saying 14 points, please.
09:28Here's, I'm trying to think, any time I've dealt with it,
09:32I dealt with it in Cleveland when Bernie got hurt,
09:36and we used two different quarterbacks
09:40in the next three weeks. Oof. Yeah, it was tough.
09:44But the thing that kept us in all these games was
09:48our top defense was top five, and we ran the ball, right?
09:52So we could basically just make the game
09:56a slow, methodical, you know...
10:00Take that off the tail for this team. Right. And my whole thing is this,
10:04and I've said this, but
10:08the way you have that success, I don't know
10:12how sustainable it is, because if you can't run the ball
10:16straight ahead, it's going to pose problems at the most pivotal moments
10:20during the game. Oof. Like, third-and-one, fourth-and-one,
10:24goal line, you've got to be able to just
10:28line your guys up, be physical enough to create a crease,
10:32and your running back be strong and powerful enough to get through it, because
10:36there's not going to be much room. Instead,
10:40fourth-and-one, third-and-one,
10:44thirds.
10:48Right. I haven't seen a long carry all season.
10:52Well, that's all we saw last year. Well, because again,
10:56look at the style of runs. Most of them were just outside the end,
11:00just outside, and so what they're doing is,
11:04right, even in the pass, get those guys
11:08upfield as quick as you can,
11:12and keep either the quarterback in the pocket, and keep the running
11:16back and turn him inside. Now, that's fine
11:20if you get the three guys in front of you to block those
11:24three guys, you know, the linebacker, the tackle
11:28and the nose guard or whatever.
11:32All right. Headlines brought to you by Doral Volkswagen.
11:36The Doral Volkswagen shoes from over 300 new Volkswagen models in stock.
11:40The Tiguan, the Teos, and the Atlas. Remember, when it comes to Volkswagen, the great deals are at
11:44Doral Volkswagen. Your final score last night, 31-12.
11:48Box score
11:52yesterday, Snoop Huntley, 14-22
11:56for 96 yards.
12:00You know what's crazy? Only through 22 passes.
12:04So, out of curiosity, what was the time of possession?
12:08Time of possession
12:12yesterday. Let's take that long and go through them out.
12:16Dolphins, 25-08. Titans, 34-52.
12:20Not as bad as the stats
12:24would indicate.
12:28Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead.
12:32Tyler Huntley was the leading rusher. Eight rushes for 40 yards with a TD.
12:36Jalen Wright, nine carries, 32 yards.
12:40Tyree kill, three catches, 19 yards.
12:44Devon Achen, fat cat Tyree kill. Four catches,
12:4823 yards. Intangibles Tanner Conner.
12:52He had catches last night. Two catches, 15 yards.
12:56Not bad.
13:00Hey, here it is. Game Boy 305. See, Leroy,
13:04you said we needed online help, like drafting Panay Sool, but no, you said
13:08it wasn't important. That's not what I said. I said it's more important that you
13:12have the same five guys working together, which
13:16if you look at the Dolphins, they do not. I'm curious to see how Big Boy
13:20did, though. Remember that? Nobody wanted him, though.
13:24Stop acting like all of a sudden you said we should keep him as a coach.
13:28We keep doing the Flores-Mike McDaniel thing. How about we talk about the idea
13:32that Hayes hired Adam Gase instead of Man Campbell? Yeah, it's
13:36true. And everyone's like, oh, Mike McDaniel, he has such a special relationship
13:40with his players. Yeah, but it's soft, dude. Man Campbell
13:44cries for his players, and he bites kneecaps. And he's hilarious in Applebee's
13:48commercials. So funny. Can I just say,
13:52the two are not... Short press conference. The two are not related.
13:56You can be a player's coach and be
14:00hard-ass, right? You don't realize
14:04how tough Denny was. The temperament
14:08of your coach, if he's an offensive coordinator, when you look at
14:12the different ways he tries to play
14:16football, or tries to play offensive football,
14:20if any of that were to get over to your
14:24defense, you're 100% correct. And
14:28I think that before the season,
14:32everybody talked about how physical they wanted to be.
14:36But when you're defending, that
14:40offense all camp, even when you're not practicing,
14:44that's all you're seeing. You're talking about speed and getting the spots
14:48and stuff like that. Sometimes it's hard
14:52to be physical when you never have to be. Man Campbell's having so
14:56much fun that he felt bad yesterday that he
15:00didn't give Jared Goff a game ball. Because in Man Campbell's world, he
15:04doesn't do the Mike McDaniel where everybody gets a game ball.
15:08Two game balls. Who? Offense, defense.
15:12And what happened was... Let me just tell the story.
15:16So he gives the game ball to Jamison Williams, wide receiver, and their safety
15:20Kirby Joseph. And they go, no game ball for Jared Goff?
15:24It was 18 for 18. But that's how much fun they're having!
15:28In Detroit! The Lions!
15:32Actually, everyone does deserve a game ball over there and he's not giving them one.
15:36Hey, how about this? Anyone heard
15:40of Earl Morrow? He played backup quarterback for the
15:44undefeated Dolphins. Can I just say this to you?
15:48They threw 12 passes a game. Stop it.
15:52Excellent defense. Excellent backfield.
15:56Dominant offensive line with Hall of Famers on it. Stop.
16:00But when you have two Hall of Famers playing wide receiver,
16:04two Hall of Famers on the offensive line,
16:08yeah! That helps!
