00:00We did want to get into the Commanders, their second preseason game,
00:02which is now the most meaningful, they say, preseason game
00:06because third preseason game, they don't play anybody.
00:08You're in defense mode.
00:10You don't play anybody.
00:11So this is supposed to be the game where you play somebody.
00:15And we're wondering about the quarterback position in particular
00:18and also want to hear what you want to see beyond that.
00:211-800-636-1067, checking in on our junkies poll of the day.
00:27There were three options in terms of how much you want to see Jaden Daniels play.
00:31Not predicting what Dan Quinn's going to do.
00:35How much do you want to see him play?
00:3718% are zippy.
00:39Just keep him healthy.
00:40Play it safe.
00:41I think Cakes is in that corner.
00:42Did you vote for zippy?
00:44Or you've changed your tune?
00:45I've not placed my vote.
00:46I have changed my tune.
00:48I would like to see him play at least a couple series.
00:51Okay, so that's the second option.
00:521-2 series, 64% there.
00:54Or one quarter plus is at 18%.
00:56But I want to see him play with T-Mac and Steph.
01:00Oh, they're definitely going to play those guys.
01:02Yeah, that's what I want to see.
01:03They're not going to just put him out there with the backups.
01:05With the backups.
01:06I know.
01:06That's what I want.
01:07If you're asking me what I want to see, that's what I want to see.
01:10And I'm hoping it's a quarter, but who knows.
01:14And of course, you've got to feel a little hesitant because if Allegretti's not out,
01:19you're going to have a backup center.
01:21I'll buy, I guess I'll buy what Mike Jones was selling, and it's kind of what DQ was
01:28selling too, that when you play in a preseason game and you have a new coordinator like a
01:34Mike McDaniel in L.A. or David Blau here in D.C., it's a different rhythm.
01:41You want to hear how he handles ball and plays.
01:44I guess I'll buy that.
01:45But if you call three plays, are you really?
01:47If it's just three, it's hard for me to imagine how much you can gather from it.
01:52I mean, you'd hope you get a first down.
01:54So what I would want to see is Jaden out there for a while in a touchdown drive.
02:00So if it's a one play, throw a bomb.
02:03Like when you anointed him a Hall of Famer like he did to Deami Brown two years ago.
02:08Well, that was in a Jets-controlled scrimmage.
02:10Okay, whatever it was.
02:11That wasn't even like a preseason.
02:13Whatever the heck it was, you were like, that passed to Deami.
02:15I've seen enough, shut him down.
02:17I think if you have a successful drive, you're cool.
02:20Whether that's an eight play drive, a two play drive.
02:23We were there for the two-minute drill the other day when we were training camp.
02:26And it was a two-pass drive.
02:28It was a 25-yard pass maybe to Stefan Diggs.
02:32And then they moved up the field.
02:33And then 40-yarder to Chig.
02:36And it was done.
02:38But I would say I put zero stock in what he does, though.
02:40So that's why I don't know what the value of it is.
02:44Because if they score in a two-play drive or a ten-play drive, or they three and out, three
02:49and out, I put zero stock in.
02:51I think there's some value in getting a rhythm, gaining some confidence.
02:551-800-636-1067.
02:57Let me just throw out the other thing I want to see.
02:59The only other thing I want to see is Sonny Stiles make a play.
03:04Yes.
03:04Because the storyline after the first game is Sonny Stiles didn't do anything.
03:08And that's unfair.
03:08That's so stupid.
03:09Of course.
03:10It's so dumb.
03:10He played one series.
03:12But just make some sort of splash play.
03:14Where the Dolphins marched down the field.
03:15They got shoved on.
03:16Now, it wasn't a lot of the other starters.
03:19So I'm going to...
03:20Right.
03:20They didn't have any other starters.
03:21We had like two or three starters.
03:22And he looked good in coverage on some of the plays.
03:26He looked good in coverage to me.
03:27Did he get confused on some misdirection?
03:30Sure.
03:31But it was his first live NFL experience in a game.
03:34And then there's idiots out there saying he's a boss.
03:36He's got no heart.
03:36Those people are so dumb.
03:38Do I want to see him improve and take some more steps and maybe flash?
03:41Yeah.
03:41That'd be great.
03:42But I'm not going to start writing him off if I don't see it against the line.
03:46Give me a Sonny Stiles batted ball.
03:48A pressure.
03:49That'd be nice.
03:50A sack.
03:50A big tackle.
03:52Something where he flashes his athleticism.
03:56Yeah.
03:56I would agree with that.
03:57That'll at least tantalize.
03:58You can go, okay.
03:59Maybe this is what we can look forward to.
04:01Maybe Durante puts him out as a pass rusher out wide.
04:04It could be as simple as chasing a guy down on the sideline.
04:08Right.
04:08It could be as simple as that.
04:09Just something where he pops.
04:10Because there really wasn't anything that he pops.
04:12Well, and also in the defense, don't allow a 13-play drive to start the game.
04:18That would be more off.
04:19Touchdown.
04:20More off.
04:20Now you're not going to see.
04:21You've got a bunch of guys not playing.
04:22Right.
04:23So I'm saying you're not going to see starters for the Lions.
04:25Like always not playing.
04:26But also for the Lions, you're not going to see their first team.
04:30Yeah.
04:30So.
04:30It's kind of a big cluster.
04:32You know what else I need to see?
04:33I need to see whatever the team is seeing out of Shy Tuttle.
04:36Because nobody seems to be concerned about Johnny Newton being sidelined.
04:40Here's why.
04:41And he's hyping up guys like Shy Tuttle.
04:42So I'd like to see something from him.
04:44Here's why.
04:44Because at some point, I mean, Johnny Newton had become established as a rotational player.
04:51So does that mean he sucks?
04:53No.
04:53But are there a lot of those guys around?
04:56Yeah.
04:56He's replaceable.
04:57That's all I would say.
04:58I don't mean to diminish him.
05:00He's an elite athlete.
05:02But he's replaceable.
05:03That's all.
05:04Oh, yeah.
05:05And if you had to rank all the players on the roster, you start with, in terms of importance on
05:10the team,
05:11you'd start with Jaden Daniels one.
05:12Yeah.
05:13You might go Terry McLaurin two.
05:15Johnny Newton's going to be 25 to 30.
05:18Yeah.
05:18When he's one of your backup interior defensive linemen.
05:21I'm with you.
05:22It's not top tier primary need.
05:25Every loss is a terrible loss.
05:27It's not a primary need, but it's like losing a fifth receiver.
05:30It hurts, but Cakes, you can replace a backup lineman.
05:33It'd suck if De'Ami Brown went down, but they'd be okay with losing De'Ami Brown.
05:38It's just about the depth.
05:39He's more important than De'Ami Brown?
05:41It's just about the depth.
05:42You just don't want to lose guys, even if they're your fourth defensive tackle.
05:46If I had to lose one, I'd want to lose my fourth defensive tackle.
05:49You'd rather lose him than Kinlaw.
05:51Right.
05:52Right.
05:52But it just hurts a team that was dead last in defense to lose even a rotational player.
05:59It's not great.
06:00Yeah, but we can upgrade.
06:01His replacement might even be better.
06:03They might pick up some bum.
06:05Okay.
06:05It's even better.
06:06If that's the case, fine.
06:07It's just...
06:10I'm a little bit with you.
06:11That's how low the bar is.
06:13They could pick up somebody's scraps, and they could be silly for us.
06:17Hmm.
06:18You know?
06:18Well, I mean, then...
06:19It happens.
06:20It happens.
06:20Then Johnny Newton was massively overdrafted.
06:22He was.
06:23We acknowledge that.
06:24We all kind of acknowledge that.
06:26We acknowledge that.
06:26Acknowledged it yesterday.
06:27I'm kind of thinking that's the case.
06:28I mean, you've acknowledged it with Ben Sinnott, right?
06:30Yeah.
06:31Pretty much.
06:32It might not even be Ben...
06:34I actually will make the argument it's not even Ben Sinnott's problem.
06:36He was behind, you know, a borderline Hall of Famer in Zach Ertz, who they were deferential
06:41to and was performing.
06:43And then now he's coming.
06:44They picked up Chig.
06:45He's clearly not in that level.
06:47So, I mean, it's over.
06:48Yeah, but if he had showed more, he would have gotten more plays.
06:51I can't remember what David Blau said.
06:52Remember when David Blau, a couple months ago...
06:55He said something like, I envision a role for him.
06:57Yeah.
06:57Something to that effect.
06:59The headline was, he's got a ways to go.
07:02Yeah, I think that was it.
07:03Something like that.
07:03That was it.
07:04Yeah.
07:05Listen, I agree.
07:06But sometimes, I do think that a lot of these guys, they need the right opportunity.
07:12Maybe the system is way better for Ben Sinnott than Kingsbury's system.
07:15Let me hear from Commanders fans.
07:17What do you want to see in this second preseason game?
07:20Remember, the third preseason game, you're probably not going to see anybody.
07:23There's not even a reason to talk about the third preseason game.
07:27I'll throw out another one.
07:28All right, so I want to see one Sonny Stiles, silly, however you want to define it.
07:33All right.
07:34Okay.
07:34And then I would like to see a nice Antonio Williams one.
07:39And we've heard, but just give me a nice Antonio Williams.
07:43Maybe a slant that goes for 17 yards.
07:47I want to see Nick Cross also make some plays.
07:50He will.
07:50If he's out there.
07:51He will.
07:52He's my guy.
07:53He's impactful.
07:54Everyone's been, like from day one.
07:56By the way, Nick Cross is very chill, but a really good dude.
07:58He is a chill guy.
07:59He's a good dude, though.
08:01I'm not saying he's not a good guy.
08:02He's a very chill guy.
08:03He's very chill.
08:04He won't give you much, but he's a good dude.
08:06He's a laid-back dude.
08:08Yeah.
08:08He's got great teeth.
08:10All those guys.
08:10They just have great teeth.
08:11I mean, all I can do is stare at those teeth.
08:13I mean, they're so nice.
08:14They almost look fake.
08:14They're just silly, white.
08:16I'm just sat there.
08:17Perfectly aligned.
08:18All I could look at him, literally, I was just looking at his teeth.
08:21Jason was groping him.
08:22I was looking at his teeth.
08:24I was basically hugging him.
08:25Nick Cross's teeth?
08:26I'm going to have to take a look at his teeth.
08:28They're really good.
08:28They're elite.
08:29They have elite teeth, man.
08:30He has elite.
08:31They were just so white.
08:33He plays like his teeth.
08:34You know what?
08:34I need to go to his dentist.
08:36Because his dentist is doing some work.
08:38No.
08:38I need new parents.
08:39That guy flosses every day.
08:42Guaranteed.
08:42I don't know.
08:43He might have just been blessed with those teeth.
08:45Those are so good cakes.
08:46They're really good.
08:48I mean, I water pick.
08:49I got the teeth whitening, toothpaste.
08:51I do all that stuff.
08:53My teeth don't look at anything like that.
08:55Genetics is the one seed.
08:56Exactly.
08:57Exactly.
08:57Some people just have cankles.
09:00Yeah.
09:00What are you going to do?
09:01You know what I mean?
09:02You can do all the freaking calf raises you want.
09:04Yep.
09:04You're just going to be saddled with them.
09:06Yeah.
09:08I'm just cracking myself up.
09:10What else do I want to see?
09:13Antonio Williams, what I want to see with him is just the separation.
09:17Because that's what jumped out at me when I first started looking at his highlights when
09:20they drafted him, was the way he runs his routes.
09:24I do think, you're going to mock me, but I do think, I'm with Cakes, there's a very big
09:32opportunity for Chig to flash once these games start going.
09:35Because I don't, you know, you got Terry out there, Steph out there, Luke, Deami, Antonio,
09:40these guys have all proven, whatever, to each to a lesser extent than others, but that
09:45they can make plays.
09:46You got to, you know, not everybody has six elite defenders.
09:49Like, somebody's going to be open.
09:51That's the hope.
09:51Chig looked like the Predator a little bit when we were interviewing him.
09:57With the long dreads?
09:59He looked like the Predator.
10:00He also had a great smile.
10:01He was about as big as the Predator.
10:02Yeah, he's a big dude.
10:03His teeth were pretty good, but I put Nick Cross's teeth above him, but he had a great
10:07smile.
10:07He did, yeah.
10:08I just looked at my Nick Cross picture.
10:10Good personality.
10:11His teeth weren't showing in the picture that I took.
10:13I don't know, man.
10:14I'm going to have to see his choppers.
10:17I saw them.
10:17So they jumped out at you, too.
10:19I mean, EB noticed them initially.
10:20Did I say something to you?
10:22Did I say something to you?
10:23I think you might have mentioned it.
10:25I looked at him and his teeth were literally the whitest teeth I've ever seen.
10:29Epitome of pearly white sillies.
10:31But not like...
10:32Money gums.
10:34They didn't look...
10:35They didn't look...
10:36They didn't look fake.
10:37...glaringly fake.
10:38Like, we've seen...
10:39Yeah, like, you know.
10:40You're like, okay, that guy...
10:42I got to know a Hall of Fame coach who got new teeth.
10:44And I still, when I look at him, he just looks funny, because I know he just got all
10:48new teeth.
10:50I'll tell you during the break.
10:51Hall of Fame coach.
10:52I'm not trying...
10:53Now I'm trying to figure it out.
10:56Oh.
10:56You know what I'm talking about.
10:57I think so.
10:58He's got all new teeth.
10:59He just...
10:59Oh, okay.
11:00You know what I'm talking about.
11:01Oh, I know.
11:02Right?
11:02I know who you're talking about.
11:03Right.
11:03He's got all new teeth.
11:04He's a legend.
11:05A legend.
11:06Hall of Fame coach.
11:07You're talking about this guy?
11:07Yeah.
11:08Yeah.
11:08He got all new teeth, but you know, because he looks different.
11:12Yeah.
11:12He just looked different.
11:13It's like you got...
11:14It's almost like you got plastic surgery.
11:17Do you know what I'm saying?
11:18Yeah.
11:18It jumps off the page.
11:19It jumps off the page.
11:20You can't not see it.
11:21Six months later, do those teeth look more natural?
11:23No.
11:24No.
11:24You always...
11:25They always stay that way.
11:26No.
11:26Because you always look different.
11:28You just changed your look.
11:29You know?
11:30Like, I got a hedge-y-poo back at 106.7 The Fan.
11:34He's still alive?
11:35I think he's still alive.
11:36Yeah.
11:37He's still kicking.
11:37He came into work one day with just pearly whites.
11:41And he's just like...
11:42Oh, yeah.
11:42I mean, like, you're just like...
11:43Well, he had nothing for months, though.
11:46He was actually...
11:46He had numbers one day.
11:48Comes back with, like, a Hollywood smile.
11:51The next.
11:52Like, you just know.
11:53Shocker, you asked if he was alive still.
11:55Yeah.
11:55On your big death kick.
11:56I mean, he's getting up there.
11:58I mean, come on.
11:59Are you going to be shocked when you get that email?
12:01No.
12:03Fell off his horse?
12:04Yeah.
12:06It could be a way to go.
12:07It could be a way to go.
12:09He lives out there.
12:10He's got...
12:11Yeah, he's going to speak into that.
12:12It was a guy.
12:13It was a great guy.
12:14But he's kind of a legendary salesman in this world.
12:16Like, in this area, right?
12:18Yeah.
12:18Everybody knows him.
12:19And he had a weird habit.
12:21We picked up on him.
12:22He would wear those leather gloves.
12:23Remember, he would wear them in the office?
12:25Yes.
12:26Was it a flex that he was being driven to work or something?
12:29That was, like, a weird...
12:30I don't know what was going on.
12:32I thought they were driving gloves.
12:34Were they driving gloves?
12:35Those were his driving gloves.
12:37What, did he have a Corvette or something?
12:38Didn't Kevin have to clean his aquarium?
12:40In his office.
12:41That was what...
12:41Kevin's come a long way.
12:42That was what Kevin's come a long way.
12:42Interview with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt and all these stars.
12:46I wish people knew how ugly Kevin was when he started with us.
12:50Like, Kevin has had to come up.
12:51And I'm not doing shtick.
12:54I would say Kevin, on an attractive level, when he started with us, was approaching like
13:01a four.
13:03Approaching a four.
13:04That means he was like a three.
13:05He was a teenager, actually.
13:08He was, like, pre-pubescent.
13:08And he had acne all over his face.
13:11He had bad acne.
13:12Whatever it was, he just had pizza face.
13:15He had bad acne.
13:15That wasn't his fault.
13:17Bad skin.
13:18Imagine Adam Epstein.
13:21Skin.
13:21With zits.
13:22With zits.
13:24Right?
13:26And not good coloring to him.
13:29You know what I mean?
13:30Yeah, yeah.
13:30Just inflamed.
13:32Yeah.
13:32He didn't have a muscle on his body.
13:34Not a muscle on his body.
13:35Neither does Adam.
13:36Neither does this guy.
13:37Right.
13:39Awful complexion.
13:40Awful complexion.
13:41Horrific OCD.
13:42I think he had those, like...
13:44I don't even know how you describe those glasses.
13:46They were, like, these little glasses that he wore.
13:48Now let me give Kevin his flowers.
13:51Both have bad breath, too.
13:54Horrific breath.
13:55Yeah, don't forget about Hal.
13:56And a chalky mouth from all his medicine.
13:58Yeah, yeah.
13:59But now Kevin...
14:00Found himself.
14:01I would say Kevin is approached...
14:03I'll say this.
14:04It's rarefied air.
14:05Approaching eight status.
14:08Wow.
14:08Eight status.
14:10Now, as a Hollywood interviewer.
14:11It takes an eight to know an eight, too.
14:13Huh?
14:13Takes an eight to know an eight.
14:15Yeah.
14:17Approaching eight status.
14:18He's, like, double his number.
14:21That is a big glow-up.
14:22I think I checked out his page recently.
14:24He's up to almost a half million on Instagram.
14:26I mean, he's a star.
14:27Did you show him the secret eight handshake?
14:29Well, he hangs out with stars.
14:29Yeah, exactly.
14:31Huh?
14:31He hangs out with all the stars.
14:33Kevin's a legit star in that world.
14:36That's for him.
14:37I think...
14:38He's worked hard to get there.
14:39If he takes his shirt off and you see all those terrible tattoos, then he goes back down
14:43to, like, six.
14:44Because they're, like, Miley Cyrus.
14:46Like, if you like tattoos, fine.
14:47But they're, like, Miley Cyrus random tattoos.
14:49It's not a sleeve.
14:50It's just a random...
14:51At least if you're going to go with tattoos, get the sleeve.
14:53Movie schnick.
14:54You got, yeah, like, movie quotes, you know, or, like, a ghost or something.
14:59Like, you know, a Megadeth tattoo.
15:02Life is like a box of chocolates on his back or something.
15:05Right.
15:07He's got a bunch of Christopher Nolan ones.
15:09Shocker.
15:09He's got weird.
15:10Like, literally, they look like prison tattoos.
15:12They're not good tattoos.
15:14I don't like tattoos.
15:15His are terrible.
15:18Whatever.
15:20All right, let's switch gears.
15:21Nobody wants to chime in on what they wanted to say.
15:24A couple people want to chime in.
15:25It's more fun making fun of Kevin and A.
15:28Nobody cares.
15:29I wish people knew the genuine disappointment Jason has.
15:34All right, we had to talk about Kevin McCarthy for ten minutes.
15:37Hey, that was enjoyable to me.
15:38I thought it was fun, too.
15:39Okay.
15:40All right.
15:40Hey, you know what?
15:41To each his own.
15:41All right, when we come back, though, I'm going to...
15:43You're going to love it.
15:44All right, I want to hear this one.
15:45A Nana story.
15:46I'm going to give you a story about my mom from yesterday.
15:48Don't go anywhere.
