Arch Manning, 29 of 46, 346, three touchdowns, one interception, carried the ball

10 times for six yards.

They didn't run the ball well at all.

And so they needed arch to play like he played and um

look and people gonna say it's mississippi state mississippi state but it's on the road missippi state has a has a decent defense they had a 17-point lead hostile environment yes and he he he threw them to a victory yeah

that's that's the one thing that he really couldn't do he really couldn't do early in the season when they would stop the run or when the run wasn't good

He wasn't able to do it through the air.

Right.

Throwing interceptions, ball sailing out of bounds, throwing underthrowing people, overthrowing people.

And what I saw today,

calm, relaxed, in the pocket, when need, extending plays, making throws, which is why his numbers look the way they did today.

Yep, it looked it looked promising.

He looked promising.

So I'm glad he's playing well now.

And listen, down set, down seven.

They were down 17, huh?

17 in the fourth quarter,

man.

Listen, man,

that's that's a part of that clutch, Gene.

Yeah,

They're trying to see.

428 total yards.

They weren't very good on third down, which was one of the reasons they found themselves down by 17.

They were 8 of 20 on third down.

Mississippi State weren't much better.

They were 6 of 19.

But at the end of the day,

You got the win.

And that's really what it comes down to.

Game was really evenly matched.

Texas had the ball for 30 minutes and one second.

Mississippi State had it for 29.59.

That's why you saw the game go into overtime.

So

Arch got a big victory, but they're not out of the woods.

They still have Alabama.

They still got Vanderbilt.

They got Vanderbilt this next Saturday.

They get Vanderbilt at home.

And then I think, if I'm not mistaken, I think they head into Alabama.

Well, that's a tough, that's a tough two-game stretch.

No team in college football had won a conference game by 50 or more points this season, other than Indiana.

And today, they did it for the second time.

The second-ranked Hughes Hoosiers accomplished the feat.

One month after destroying Illinois by 53, they hammered the UCLA 56-50.

Star quarterback Fernando Mendoza sought out the rest of the half as his younger brother, freshman Alberto

Mendoza, replaced him as quarterback.

They putting foots in people, man.

They beat it.

I ain't lie.

I lied, no, Joe.

They beat the brakes on people.

They not only beating people, they beating people convincingly.

Yes.

Convincingly.

When you think of Indiana, the first thing you think about when you hit Indiana is you think basketball.

Yes.

You think basketball.

You don't even see them as a football school.

So the fact that Brother Mendoza...

And the rest of his compadres are doing what they're doing at Indiana football

Looks good.

It's promising.

Yeah, look,

before Peyton Manning got there, they were known for basketball in the Indy 500.

Peyton turned it into like a football state.

Indiana, it was a basketball school.

Everybody knows what Coach Knight has done for that Indy.

Oh, yeah.

did their three national championships last one in 19

uh 1987

when they beat Syracuse.

That was Jim Bayheines.

Derek Coleman was a freshman.

Ronnie Seichley was at Syracuse.

They had Steve Alford, Keith Smart.

Hold on.

Miami Heat, Ronnie Seykling.

Yep.

He went to Syracuse.

He and Derrick Coleman.

Derrick Coleman was a freshman.

And

that was his last national championship because they won in 76 when they had Scott May, Kent Benson.

That was the last undefeated team in college to win a national championship.

81, that was Isaiah's freshman year when Isaiah and them beat Georgetown.

That was also the same day

the assassination attempt on President Reagan's life.

That was 1981.

John Hinkley

tried to assassinate President Reagan, and they played the game that night.

But Indiana, man, that ball club, Zignetti, Kurt Signetti is done.

You talking about taking a dormant program and building it into a power?

Yeah.

He's done that.

He went to the college football playoffs last year.

Here he is.

Look like they're in position to go back again.

And this is the funny thing about it is he has the players.

I wonder what their NIO package looks like.

Not looking much.

It don't look like much.

That's what I'm going to do.

It might moving forward.

Yeah.

Hey, he got some boys in there, man.

He got some boys in there.

They playing some ball.

They're playing unbelievable football.

And

he can coach.

Like I said, up until last year, I didn't know much about him.

Yeah.

But seeing what he's doing with this ball club and to follow it up, because

you know, sometimes you can sneak up on somebody.

We saw TCU.

Sorry, Ash, make it to the college football playoff and then get drugged.

Bad.

Hey.

Last time I saw somebody get drugged that bad, I was at a tractor pool.

You don't know to see things get drugged like that.

But the Bulldogs drug them.

But he has his team playing.

They're in position, and it looks like they're headed back to the college football playoffs again.

Ocho, the NFL is firing the New York Giants $200,000.

Coach Brian Dayball, $100,000.

Running back Cam Scatterbook, $15,000 for violating concussion protocol during Jackson Jackson Dart's evaluation.

Now, remember, Ocho, they got away with it in New York.

Remember?

When he was screaming?

And they put Russ in.

And he's like, well, you know, he wanted to call a timeout.

And they're like, hold on, hold on, bro.

We got to go through protocol.

This man getting

coming right back in the game.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

We're not going to do that.

Yeah, it ain't working like that.

Yeah, yeah.

So, because the last day, well, the NFL didn't protect him.

So the NFL said, no,

we finna put a stop to this.

You got to.

Listen,

y'all going out there trying to skirt the system.

And people have to understand, especially those in the chat, you have to understand what the NFL is doing, with the protocol and why they're taking such extreme measures when players get dinged up and they have the spotters that sit high and look low and say, oh, you know what?

You need to get him out of the game.

He lowers that.

So something ain't right.

The fact that the NFL lost the lawsuit.

to what two errors ago or three errors ago three

uh it was right after i it was like in the last 15 i think last 15 yeah i mean listen they lost a lawsuit oh i think over a billion dollars if i'm not mistaken something like that where they claim concussions and certain injuries that that players had to play through yeah you know and so with them losing that now they're taking every safety measure possible every safety be i mean they're being nitpicky with it it doesn't matter what it is you know if you you look like you better wrong man you're coming out you're going in the blue tent

So

they're protecting themselves.

They're protecting the shield.

And in a sense, it's good.

I'm all for safety.

But again, at the end of the day, we play a barbaric sport.

Understand what you signed up for.

There's only so much safety you can provide, you know, with

helmets and pads when you got dudes as fast as they are, as big as they are, running into each other 30, 40 miles an hour,

whatever it may be.

I mean, there's only so much you can do.

But that's the thing.

I mean, look, they've made the car safer, but accidents happen and people still lose their lives in car races.

Yes.

You got side airbags.

You got front airbags.

If you run into somebody at a high rate enough for speed, things are going to happen.

You jump the car over,

it's going to happen.

That's just the way it is.

Yeah.

But I feel like an inherently dangerous sport.

Yes.

And you're trying to make it safe.

Yeah.

I mean, listen.

You're trying to make it safe.

You're trying to make it safe the best way you can by changing the game, the rules, obviously the kickoff and stuff like that to minimize the injuries, but they're going to happen.

They're still,

they're still happening.

And most of the injuries now, it ain't even contact.

It's non-contact stuff that's happening.

Yeah.

So they still getting hurt.

Yeah.

And

so I'm not surprised at this because I heard him talk early in the year when it happened.

And they ended up putting Russ in.

And he said he wanted to call the timeout.

They wanted to see.

Like, I want to, I said, bro,

you do realize everything that you say can will be used against against you.

Against you.

Yes, it will.

And so they're like, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not finna do that.

We're not, we're not finna do that.

We're gonna put a stop to this.

We're gonna put a stop to this.

Now,

next time, it's gonna be a bigger fine, and

they mess around and end up suspending.

Yeah,

too.

May not be.

But they want to get this message loud and clear.

They don't want to start this.

They don't want to start this precedent.

Oh, no.

And you know what?

I don't think other coaches are really in a position where they have to rely on Jackson Dart,

which makes the offense go.

He changes the dynamic of that offense tremendously, which is why he wants, which is why he wanted his ass back in that game as fast as possible because he gives us our best chance to win.

Correct.

And that's why he said I would have taken a timeout if I if that was all, you know, hey, I take a timeout.

Right.

But I think they want you to miss a play or two.

Yeah.

Uh, Actually, they prefer it to be more because they want to do a proper evalve.

But they need you to miss at least a play or two.

Right.

Former Bengals Vontez Burfick says he intentionally took shots when playing against the Steelers.

He hated Pittsburgh.

I didn't hit people after play all the time.

Just the Steelers.

F the Steelers.

Burfick was given multiple suspensions for violating player safety rules.

Did you play with the Tez?

Nah, nah, he's the era after me.

I think think Vontez is the AJ Green era.

Yeah, he will, yeah, yep.

Yeah, him and Andy Dalton.

Now,

I was long gone after that, but

I enjoyed his style of play.

Vontez Berfick would have been perfect during our era.

His style of play would have been perfect during our era.

Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah.

He'd have fit in perfect in the 80s and the 90s.

Oh, absolutely.

Absolutely.

He just happened to be born at the wrong time to try to play that brand of football.

Yeah, that's it.

But you know,

he got a lot of people up out of there.

Oh, yeah.

Listen, there are very few people that play the game in that manner.

And most people will call it, most people will call it dirty, obviously.

But again, it's football, it's football.

That's the way the game has been played.

That's the way it's been played the last, who knows how many years before the rule changes have come.

And he just chose to take it into a manner of himself to play it like it was in the 80s and 90s, in the early 2000s.

It was frowned upon.

Well,

they used to have segments on ESPN.

Oh, yeah.

Jacked up.

Jacked up.

They had video.

They have a compilation of all the big hits.

They package and they would sell it.

It was on DV, it was on CD, excuse me, it was on uh VCR tapes, yeah, and then it was on a DVD.

You could just order a big hits,

yeah,

and they're like, hold on, you glorifying this.

You talk about you frowned upon it, but you're glorifying it.

Yeah, you selling it, you're making money off of it.

Yeah, because

it made money.

Yes, people like to see those big hits.

And people are like, well, that's that's football.

You have to have an evolution.

Every sport is going through an evolution.

Yeah.

And,

you know, plays that was in the 80s in basketball, clotheslining people out the sky and doing all that stuff.

You can't do that anymore.

It's called evolution.

You got to advance the game.

You know better.

You know more.

So you do better.

Vontez said, yeah, I intentionally took cheap shots at them.

Look, there is no love loss between the Bengals and the Steelers.

Heinz Ward, when he cracked back, they put the rule in.

You see Vontez when he hit

Antonio Brown.

I think that was a playoff game.

Yeah, I think he got you.

I think Juju and Juju got him right back.

Yep.

Yep.

Yep.

That's the way it is.

Then, hell, then Vontez went to the Raiders and took that brand of football to the Raiders.

Like, bro, damn, you ain't learned your lesson.

Yeah, man.

Rumors persist that AJ Brown could be traded before the deadline this season, especially as the Eagle wide receiver has expressed his frustration in the offense recently.

Diana Rossini recently interviewed Eagles owner Jeffrey Luhr and asked him how he would react if Brown showed up and requested a trade.

Lure said,

We do what's best for the team.

We don't even consider it seriously unless it's best for the Eagles.

We always do what gives us the best chance of winning big.

Everything else is secondary.

When asked about the internal conflict with the team, Lurie says, we encourage it.

We want different personalities, Lurie said.

Sometimes in trade or free agency, we'll bring in people that complement those that we have.

They're different on purpose.

We don't want sameness.

Oh, Joe's.

We didn't hear Jeffrey Lurie flat out deny the Eagles wouldn't trade A.J.

Brown.

Could we see him in another uniform

before the trade deadline?

Hey, Uncle.

He's He's going to miss this game, Mocho.

He's nursing a hamstring injury, so he's out.

Yeah.

Hey, listen,

most of the time, you know, where there's smoke, there's fire.

When you hear rumblings of it come out

of nowhere, you know it has to come from somewhere.

I understand when Deanna, Deanna, you know, asked Lurie the question, he didn't answer it.

He danced around it.

And one thing about one thing I know about owners, regardless of who you are, they will make sure and remind you that you are not bigger than the program.

Yep.

You are not bigger than the Philadelphia Eagles.

When A.J.

Brown is gone, whether he traded or not, the Philadelphia Eagles will always go on and continue to do what they always do, compete for a championship.

So, I mean, AJ Brown is still well in his prime.

If he's not happy, I mean, we know why he's not happy.

There have been many reasons.

Ocho.

You do realize the man just had four catches, 121 yards and two touchdowns, and then put out a tweet using me, but not really using me.

Ocho, come on now, Ocho.

Hey, I know you can't co-sign that yeah i i didn't say i was i'm just you asked me a question i'm just i'm just giving you a story on the inconsistencies of him not not being able to contribute week in and week out that's all he could oh okay

he's mad for a reason don't get on me

ocho how you mad if you catch four balls a buck 21 and two touchdowns and you win and you catch the touchdown to win the game yeah and you say using me but not using me i'm confused wait Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

I'm just a messenger.

I'm just a messenger.

I'm just here to give the message.

Okay, give me the message.

How is that possible?

Hey, I don't know, but it is possible because he's upset.

He's upset.

Matter of fact, even after you have four catches for 121 yards and two touchdowns, you're still upset.

Yeah, you know what?

Maybe it's the manner in which those catches came.

God damn, that was a broken play.

That was a scramble play.

That don't even count.

You know, allow me to be a part of the offense authentically, authentically, organically.

Not, oh, Jalen Hurts, he scrambles out to the left and he tells me and he points up for me to go deep.

That's a broken play.

That's not an actual play.

Now, I understand the outcome of having four catches, 121 yards is based on, you know, those plays, but he was

frustrated when he caught the dig right.

I mean, not the dig, the skinny.

Yes.

When he caught the skinny, they, they,

if you look at the replay, he

got the damn quarterback name.

Jalen Hurts.

Jalen Hurts changed the play.

In the replay, you can see him give him this.

He put the three fingers down.

He changed it to the goddamn skinny.

He changed.

So, I mean, listen,

I hope it doesn't happen because I think A.J.

Brown gives them their best chance to win, especially when they have to throw the ball.

There isn't another AJ Brown on that team.

If he is to go, that can help.

I think they play

well off off of each other devontae smith and aj brown they both do things completely different outside of just catching the ball so but but i one thing about them on the zone

one thing they will show you that you are not bigger than the program

In the article published for the Athletic on Saturday, Diana Rossini discussed what going on with Brian and Hurts.

She said, those who have studied film can understand why Brown is frustrated.

An opposing defensive coach told Rossini that Hurts struggles against zone defenses and that Brown becomes MIA when teams play zone against Hurts.

Hurts reportedly is sometimes unsure

of the coverage looks or whether he'll go deep or check things down.

So that could explain why Brown might not get the ball as much as he would like.

Also, what I like about Jalen Hurts, even though coaches understand that he might be a little hesitant when it comes to zone defense, Hurts ain't turning that goddamn ball over.

Right.

I'm not turning the ball over.

So if I see something and i'm not sure what it is even if it is zone or it's man and it's not a clear indication and i can't process it right away i'm checking down or

i'm going to my safety valve to my tight end now if i have to do that all four quarters until they decide to play man then so be it and that's exactly the way he plays the game it is and it's not throwing the ball over he's not turning the ball over it's not happening No,

and in zones, you have to throw with anticipation because the guy's going to be moving three in and and out of windows.

And he's not as sure as he needs to be.

Right.

The ball with great anticipation.

If you notice his big plays, it's always single coverage.

Yeah, always.

Look at what AJ did against the Rams.

It was single coverage.

Look at what he did.

Look at what he did against the Vikings.

It was single coverage.

Yeah.

I mean,

in a way, it's a good thing, Unc,

and it's also a bad thing because now

AJ Brown is complaining.

Because whether it's zone or man, there's always a hole.

There's always

a way to get me the ball.

But that comes on the other end of Jalen Hurts being able to anticipate those throws in those windows and trusting that AJ Brown is going to always be in those windows.

But something like that, that starts in practice.

That happens in practice.

So if you're not doing it in practice, it's definitely not going to all of a sudden just happen in the game.

No.

No, it's not.

And, you know, you got to call plays that are good against the zone that they're running.

Look, you look.

And I think the thing is, Ocho, is that teams are not going to let 2-6 beat them.

No.

And

as long as they're able to control it, I mean, look, I can't stay in zone all day.

I got to give you a steady die because even if I stay in zone all day, you'll find ways to, you know, A, you'll check it down.

You'll find a tight end.

Excuse me.

And you'll find other ways to get other guys the ball, even if it's not A.J.

Brown.

So I have to give you a steady.

When you expect man, I'm going going to give you zone.

When you expect, you know, zone, I'm going to give you man.

The question is that being able to decipher it and figure it out in time.

But

look, it's just hard.

People are never going to coincide.

If you win the game and you have a monster game like he had and you won, people are like, man, AJ, we ain't trying to hear that.

Right.

And I know, I get the frustration level.

Yeah.

Because AJ's like, bro, it's.

Y'all ain't going to be looking when my numbers are not indicative of what you guys paying me.

y'all ain't gonna take into consideration he ain't reading me he's not good against zone y'all not gonna take it against consideration he's missing me all you're gonna say man aj done lost it yep y'all never gonna say because i play a dependent position i'm dependent on the guy giving me an opportunity yeah so i know what y'all gonna do i'm just trying to beat y'all to the punch see and and that that's what i was telling you earlier That's what I'm telling you earlier.

You know,

they're not basing your production on wins and losses.

No.

They ain't basing your production on wins and losses and that 33 34 million you making oh i need to see the numbers that are indicative of the money you make when that check clear every monday and if it don't

that not gonna come at the door and they're gonna say um listen

i love you but your numbers aren't reflective of the money you're making how you feel about taking a pay cut

i think it's hard ocho for him to replicate what he did last year because saquan isn't running the ball like he did last year

so

without him running the ball like he ran last year

now it's hard to get single coverage all the time like you got it last year because they were really trying to put

eight in the box

and the offensive line is a little banged up.

The offensive line is not is not is not whipping ass like they did last year.

no i mean if you watch the game chat watch the game look at the game closely they're not dominating the line of scrimmage like they did last year they're good don't get me wrong they're they're good offensive line but they're not dominant like they were last year right dickerson has been banged up and it started in remember ocho he got nicked and he missed the start and he just basically had to i think he got it cleaned up and he ended up playing and he's been in and out of the lineup jukenson the center is not playing like he did last year lane johnson been dealing with injury my ladder might be dealing with something because he's not as dominant as he once was.

They missed Makai Bechton.

I don't know who the guard is off the top of my, the right guard is off the top of my head, but they're not the same dominant, dominant.

And last year, guys, they were dominant offensive line that they were last year.

They're not that this year.

And AJ numbers are indicative of that because they can't run Saquon.

Look at Saquon's number.

They're not even close

to what they were last year.

Not even close.

I mean, he's barely on pace to get 1,000 yards or a little over 1,000 yards.

Last year, he signed up in the last game and he had 2,005 yards.

The funny thing, too, about it, most 2,000-yard rushes, the chance of actually repeating what you did the previous season

is very, very difficult.

Yeah.

It's very, very difficult.

But we've never had a guy to have

a thousand-yard seasons.

Derrick Henry

had the best chance he had 2,000 in Tennessee, and then he goes and he has

over 1,900.

He's the first guy to rush for 1,900 yards and not win the rushing title.

So that just goes to show you how great a season Saquon had.

But until they can run the football better than what they've run it thus far, I don't know.

I don't see a situation where

A.J.

Brown is not going to be frustrated, not going to be upset or disappointed or whatever term you want to use with the production or the lack thereof that he's given the Eagles currently.

Yeah.

Damn.

The Ravens are facing some scrutiny after abruptly changing Lamar Jackson's status to the official injury report.

They released Friday.

Lamar was listed as limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but was initially upgraded to a full participant in Friday's practice.

That implied that Lamar could be progressing towards playing on Sunday against the Paris.

Today, however,

the Ravens announced that Lamar actually been limited on Friday and that ruled him out for Sunday's game.

According to the report by Ian Rapperport, the NFL will be investigating.

They said

he participated,

but he didn't take any rest with the first team.

And it's clearly the NFL says if the guy doesn't take, if all he goes through is individual and he doesn't take any rest with the first team, he should be listed as a limited participant.

Right.

Now.

I don't know what he was.

I wasn't there.

I didn't see.

Right.

But the NFL, and remember, Ocho, this is why they list the injury report.

Yeah, they make it public

because just imagine if they didn't release the injury report and you see what guys were doing, allegedly, what they would do, they would call it, man, such and such ain't gonna play tonight.

So, I want to get that out there because it's gonna be official.

We're gonna make it official in the next two hours.

But don't nobody know that, but me and you, so keep that on the hush, right?

I mean, listen, the funny thing about it is, let's say he was aiming to come back and play,

but he was limited in practice and it wasn't enough it's no well you but you but you got to list him as limited you can't list him as a full participant and then turn around today and list him as limited hold on listen to me huh what if he was a full participant but he didn't feel he didn't feel like okay you know what but they lied they said he didn't take any reps with the first team offense they said all he did was go through drills that ain't good enough the nfl says anytime he doesn't take reps with the first team

you got to list him as limited okay okay okay i got you i see i see what you mean i see what you mean okay i got you that that's but here's the thing you see what happened you see what you see what happened they list him as a full participant which means he's trending towards playing i'm gonna get my betty lamar playing boom boom boom boom boom boom oh damn now he downgraded to out come on man hey listen one thing about it you see how that swing the line oh yeah it's it's swing the line but listen you you got time you be you better take that money off the table too late

you kicked

You giving somebody money back?

Well, hold on, hold on, hold on.

The game hasn't been played yet.

If you place the bet

before the game happened, you can't get your money back.

But who giving you your money back?

But hold on.

You know I don't gamble like that now.

I mean, some of them people are like, look, there are some places

like at prize picks.

You got you bet on a guy.

The guy gets injured and he doesn't come back into the game.

They won't count it as a loss.

But if you bet

on Friday, that such and such that oh, he's gonna play, let me get my money, and so I know they're gonna cover.

Right?

Oh, no, you're not getting that back, Pocho.

Oh, or shoot.

After you, you listen, you placed the bet that didn't even happen.

Oh, it happened because you already put it down.

It happened,

it did, it happened,

it happened.

So now,

prize picks also give you five minutes after the bass bet is placed so you can cancel the bet.

Well, Ocho,

if I bet on a Friday and this information don't come out until Saturday afternoon, I'm stuck like Chuck.

Okay,

now you messed up.

I'm stuck like an elevator with a bad song on it.

I'm going to the top.

I got to listen to this boy Job.

I'm on the first floor, Ocho.

Yeah, I remember the day, right?

You know, you know, they used to, when I used to go to Vegas, man, back in 83, you know, like I, they used to call, I was the whale back then, huh?

Is that what they call you?

Yeah, I used to call me the whale.

Yeah, you know what I used to do, Ocho?

What?

I don't do it no more now because, like, before people like knew who I really was, right, right, right, right.

Uh,

say, I'm going to the fourth floor, and then somebody said they're going to like 16.

I hit all the buttons in between.

See y'all.

Ocho, don't you go do it then, Ocho?

Because I know that's some stuff you do right now.

Hey, hey, that's a that's right up my alley, man.

That's right up my alley.

I like that.

Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Ocho.

Now, but you know,

probably couldn't do that now because you know, that's gonna make that's gonna make TMZ.

That's gonna make it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, Joe, take it time.

Cowboys are placed Trayvon Diggs on injured reserve Saturday as he continues to deal with concussion

symptoms following an accident at his home last week.

Diggs will miss a minimum of the next four games and be eligible to return Thanksgiving against the Kansas City Chiefs.

This is the third straight year that Diggs will spend at least a portion of the season on injury reserve.

He missed 15 games in 2023 after suffering in ACL.

He missed six games last season with a knee injury that ultimately required surgery.

Ocho?

Yes, sir.

If I'm not mistaken, I think Stephen Jones asked you can pull that up.

Stephen Jones says, I'm going to let Stefan, when he talks to the media, tell you guys what happened in the incident at his home.

Now, they said it was a slip and fall.

Now, when the owner, when one of the mouthpieces of ownership, Steve DeJerry says, well, we're going to let him tell you about the incident.

Now, people have been reporting that it wasn't a slip and fall.

What happened?

It was a knock and fall, but that's neither here.

I don't know.

A knock.

I ain't here this long.

Now,

you're going to have to update me.

They said it was two hits.

Looked like he got hit and he hit the floor.

That's what's being, that's what, that's what the internet is saying.

I don't know.

But

for somebody to say, well, I'm going to let, oh, if I tell you, man, Ocho is not going to, you know, I come out and I say, well, Ocho

had an issue going on.

And then I come back later and say, well, I'm going to let Ocho tell y'all what happened.

Hold on, hold on.

You ain't trying to say no.

I know

ain't nobody put their hands on my dog.

That's what the chat.

I'd be look at your chat.

What's your chat saying?

Hey, chat.

Y'all let me know.

Hey, hey, Trayvon, bro, you need, you, hey, you need, I'm here.

Hey, holla at your boy.

Ocho, how bad is this for the Cowboys?

Diggs out of the secondary.

He hadn't been the same since he hurt that.

Ocho, he hadn't been the the same.

Yeah, I mean, listen,

he missed two previous seasons.

Obviously, the one with the ACL tier after he got the big money.

Obviously, the following year, missed six, irritated that a little bit.

And obviously, the situation that's going on right now, where

I don't know what's going on or what happened, but now

he has to miss a minimum, maybe four games.

Yeah, he got to piss at least four.

Yeah, so listen, they still have Brother Deron Bland.

Brother Deron Bland just got paid, and

he's making that payoff work because his play is matching up to what he was just played.

What he was just paid.

I think he's next in line to be quarterback, not quarterback, CB number one for the Dallas Cowboys.

And because he's playing well, I'm assuming at some point they may be willing to let Trayvon Diggs go.

They are.

And listen, if they do let him go, you know, right down in

the 5-1-3,

we welcome you with open arms.

The number seven is open.

The number seven is open.

You can come help us get our defense going because we're going to be all right.

We're going to be all right.

So it's one thing.

One team don't want you.

There's another team that will be accepting.

He's predicated on

he's at his best when they can pressure the quarterback because he likes to guess.

Yeah.

Now, I don't know if Cincinnati is going to be the best for him because y'all don't generate a whole lot of pass rush.

I don't know if you want.

I don't really want to know who you want.

Let me tell you something something real quick now with that even though we don't generate a lot of pressure right yes we got a brother that's out of michigan right yeah chat y'all stay with me right now he is emerged as cb number one playing phenomenal football this season even with a bad defense his name is dj turno matter of fact if you if you don't know about him i i suggest y'all do me a favor and watch film look at the stats look at the numbers and what he's been able to do the entirety of the season thus far against some of the better better receivers in the league.

He's been very consistent, very even kill.

So

I think even though

we don't get the pressure you'd like

on the back end, we add Trayvon Diggs over there.

You know,

we got some good young bulls out there, especially at the second level.

We work on that D-line.

I'm hoping Trey Hendricks is not trading for the trade deadline.

I keep hearing rumors.

I keep seeing stuff about that too.

To me, it doesn't make any sense, but

we'll see what happens.

Yeah.

I mean, look, I just think the injury.

I'm trying to find out.

A man got a slip and fall.

You said a concussion.

Now you put him on IR for four weeks.

Yeah.

Why would they do that?

So hold on.

They put him on IR.

That means they bring somebody else.

That means somebody from the practice squad gets brought because

you got a roster spot available.

Right.

Okay.

I got you.

I got you.

So that makes sense.

That makes sense.

Yeah, it just seems suspicious because Brian Schottenheimer said he had a slip and fall.

Right.

Stephen Jones said, Ash, did you find that article?

Stephen Jones says, I'll let Stefan, when he's available to talk to the media, I'll let him tell you.

You mean Trayvon?

Trayvon.

I said Stephon.

Trayvon Diggs.

Yeah.

Well, did he talk to the media yet?

He ain't going to talk.

He on the engineer, so he's going to have to to talk when he gets back okay okay i'm i'm sure i'm sure he's gonna see this hey trey

you hit me i do your dirty work whoever got a problem tell him holler at me i can fix the situation i'll rectify that quick

yeah i don't know i don't know you want them problems ojo yeah no i want them problems you got my though you got my dog missing four goddamn games when you want to watch the dallas cowboys you want to watch cee d lamb you want to watch george pickens huh you want to watch deck prescott and you want to to watch Duron Bland, and you want to see Trayvon Diggs out there.

That's what we want to see.

So, whoever took that away from us, yeah, I'm saying us as a football fan, not a Cowboy fan, just as a football fan in general.

Yeah, you got my dog, Mr.

Goddamn Fox Game.

So, whoever's responsible for this,

yeah, you better, you better hope Trayvon don't hit my line.

Matter of fact, Trayvon, if you're watching this, text, text me right now,

text me right now.

We handle this, get this shit, we'll get this shit quick done in a hurry, man.

Ocho,

yeah man what we talking about man

however they want to do it you know

i mean we can go from the shoulders or we can go from the hip i mean how they want to do it wild wild west

shoot

Y'all, as far as doing a spot on 103 to 1053, the fan, Jones said that digs had several things going on

pertain to the past injuries.

He also had,

he's had several things going on pertaining to the past injuries.

So there are things we're looking at there.

We haven't ruled out that out injury reserve.

So we put him on that

look like tomorrow.

When asked about the possibility that Diggs may have played his last game with Dallas, Jones said that the Cowboys haven't even gone there yet, which leaves the door open to Diggs potentially not being back at all in 2025.

What you mean you ain't gone there yet?

Damn, won't you win the bill of the season?

What you mean you ain't gone there yet?

Hey,

hey, man, anytime the Cowboys, hey, the Cowboys organization, man, them folks in the positions of power,

they sassy.

Yeah,

they be talking like they don't talk with the kind of respect that the player deserves.

I don't like that.

I don't like that.

What you wanted him to say?

Show some respect.

Hold on.

Chad, this is the same man say he likes when it's honesty.

Yeah, I do.

I do.

I just don't.

Was he honest?

Hold on.

Listen to me now.

Stay with me real quick.

You see how they did Michael Parsons.

You see how he took shots

at Dak Dakota Prescott.

Now.

You know, you're throwing subliminals

and beating around the bush when it comes to answering questions about Trayvon.

Hey, man, we ain't got time for that, man.

We ain't got time for that.

You know, they

don't worry about it.

Don't worry about it.

I pay a visit to Jerry's World.

I pay a visit there.

I get them together.

Now, if you got something to say, you tell me and I relate.

Because when you look at it, Ocho, I mean, he was benched earlier this year.

They took 500,000 from him because

they didn't think he showed up enough for off-season rehab.

So it didn't get off to the best start.

They take $500,000 from you.

So you feeling some type of way because that's a nice chunk of change.

I don't care if you're making $19 million a year.

That's a nice chunk of change that they took for you.

Not from you.

Now they benched you.

Okay, you come back and now they put you on IR.

Hey, sometimes relationships,

sometimes relationships end, uh.

And most of the time,

you know, they don't end on good terms.

And that might be where we headed.

That might be where we're headed.

We had a good run.

We had a good run.

We created some great memories.

But I think it is best that we part ways.

That's what the Cowboys are saying subliminally.

And I think Trayvon Diggs understands that, understanding how the the business works, how the game works.

And he's going to have an opportunity to play again.

There will be many suitors for a veteran presence, you know, of his caliber, understanding what he can do.

So

it is what it is.

The nature of the business.

It's just hard.

I mean,

you're a corner and you have an ACL injury with all that planting, cutting, driving.

Yeah.

That's, you know,

that's why, you know, continue.

I take my hat off to guys that play a skilled position, wide receiver DB mainly, right?

Um, and they have ACLs and they come back and able to pick right up where they left off because that's a lot of stopping and planting and cutting.

You have to, the knee has to be stable, and then you have to be stable mentally, yeah, to be able to make the movements, yeah, necessary to be able to compete.

I did, you, yeah, you're right, you're right,

and uh,

dang.

So we'll see how they go.

All right, it's time to play play or fade presented by prize picks.

All right, Ocho, Jamar Chase, 87 yards against the Jets.

Yes.

Matter of fact, make it 187.

Ocho say yes.

I'm taking Ocho.

Justin Fields.

Absolutely.

Justin Fields less than 169 yards passing against the Bengals.

You know what,

that's a good one right there.

Now, our back end has been playing really well, but we can't get any pressure.

So this might be a game where Justin Fields throws for over 200.

This might be a game.

So, if there's a game that

excuse me, I just need 170.

I think this is a game, he'll get it.

I'm just being honest.

Okay, we're going more.

Yeah, okay, this is gonna be good.

Ocho, tour,

one interception, more than one interception against Atlanta.

Yeah, absolutely.

Nah, he ain't gonna throw, but he ain't gonna throw none.

Who, who?

Tour.

He's gonna throw, he's gonna throw one or less.

He done had six, he done had six in two games.

You think he ain't gonna throw in this game?

Where's Atlanta on takeaways, Ash?

Where are they on picks?

It ain't about where they had

in takeaways.

Man, listen.

It's like being a receiver.

Once you drop a ball,

the chance of you dropping another one, it's bound to happen.

If you're a boxer and you happen to get knocked out once, the chances of getting knocked out again, those chances increase significantly.

If he got six picks in two games, the chance of him throwing another pick against the Falcons is gonna happen.

I ain't listening to Ocho, huh?

Faith in takeaways, yeah.

No, he got to have more than one.

That means he has to have one.

Oh, oh, more than one.

I see.

Oh, yeah.

Listen to me.

Listen to me.

But Ash wrote it wrong.

Say 0.5.

Tour will have more than, because it says more than one interception.

So Ash, you messed it up.

Now come on here like you normally do.

Like you were yelling in my ear talking about Trayvon, not Stefan.

Now come on into my ear right now and say 0.5.

Yeah, you are.

Yeah.

I didn't write it.

She over here.

Chat, you are here.

I wrote it wrong.

Yeah, you did.

You did.

Absolutely.

You did.

That means I was right.

I was right all along.

Stay with me.

All right.

All right.

We'll give him one.

Kate Otten, more than 37 receiving yards for the Bears.

Hey.

They've been throwing the ball to Lovelace.

Hey, that's 87.

Who the Bears playing?

The Saints.

Oh.

Oof.

You know what?

I don't trust it.

You say less?

Yeah, I'm going to say less.

All right.

Ocho say less.

We're going less.

Jonathan Taylor, more than 1.5 touchdowns against Tennessee.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

All right.

Jonathan Taylor on fire, man.

You're going to have at least two.

I agree with you, Ocho.

$25 to win $300.

Download the app today.

Use code Shannon to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup.

It's good to be right.

John Jones and Alex Piatta both said today that they would like to

face off against each other at the White House event slated for June.

Two of the UFC's biggest stars publicly called out each other on Saturday in the immediate aftermath of a very disappointing UFC heavyweight title fight between Tom Aspinall and Sarah Gon.

Pierre wrote on IG, let's make the heavyweight division great again.

Jones responded, I'd be down to bring the highest skill level to the White House.

I appreciate the respect you've shown.

Let's dance.

Ocho, we talked to Dana about doing that during the Canelo Crawford fight.

Could this be potentially the biggest fight in USC history?

It absolutely goddamn well can be the biggest fight in U.S.

U.S.

history.

Listen, not only fighting at the White House, I think if I'm not sure what's happening, Connor McGreer, obviously being on that card, he's not a fighter.

He got a suspension for HTML.

Yeah, listen, he got a suspension, but obviously, even with him not winning some of his last fights, he is the biggest draw if he's ever to come back.

Boom.

He's out the equation.

The next biggest fight.

John Jones Pereira

at the White House on the lawn.

Magnificent.

Magnificent.

There's really no other card or

any other matchup that you can put together at heavyweights that would be equivalent to this.

It just makes sense.

It makes the most sense not only for the fight, but also.

For the pockets.

Right.

Because everybody's going to want to see that.

And when would this fight happen?

Like, do you have a date, just a time and and date?

La Vegas in June, isn't it?

In June?

Oh, next year.

Yeah.

Okay.

I like that.

Celebrate the 200, the 250th anniversary of the U.S.

Okay, listen, that'd be nice.

That'd be real nice.

So obviously, John Jones and Pereira,

this is for both of you.

If y'all need a tune-up, if y'all need some training, you need a grappling partner or a sparring partner, just let me know I'm available.

Huh?

You don't wear enough.

Come again.

You don't wear enough.

Hey, can I tell you something real quick?

Like, if it came down to it and I had to, and I was in the dark alley and I had to get to the other side, I'd beat John Jones' ass or Pereira.

You hear me?

Yeah, I hear you.

So I'm just letting you know if y'all boy D.

Unfortunately for me, I'm not going to be in a dark alley with either one of them.

I mean, because, uh,

you got to have this, huh?

I got this right here.

I don't care who it is, huh?

I don't care who it is.

Ray Lewis, James Harrison, John Jones, Alex Pereira.

I don't care if it was King Kong, but we're gonna work.

I got a permit, so that's what I got.

But I ain't going uh,

hey, uh, yeah, like like Adrian Brona said, anybody can get it.

Now, I ain't gonna, I might not win,

like Brona said, I might not win, but we're gonna go to work.

But you also heard Brona talk about, man, I'm getting cooked.

Hey,

hey, hey, uh,

hey, hey, hey, Brono, hey, hey, he is, man.

Hey, he was hilarious, Ocho.

Hey, funny, funny, funny.

Hey, that's my dog, man.

Funny as hell, man.

But that would be, you look.

And the plan is, Ocho.

I mean, think about it.

At the card at the White House, we got to have some American to win a fight.

We can't have all the Americans lose or not any Americans on the card.

Right.

Right.

So Ron Jones is our best chance of winning.

Of winning, or getting one fight at least.

Yes.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Who else we can we put on the card?

The American fighter that's going to get a win.

I know it's going to be a great event, but you can't have something in your backyard representing America and America go

and ain't nothing like it.

Yeah.

I like that.

Well, you know, you know, they can go ahead and put your boy.

They can put me and Debo on that card too, man.

Yeah.

That way we're going to get an American to win.

We get an American to win.

Hey, that'd be a good one.

Hey, hey, Dana White, I know you're going to see this.

Listen, we talked.

I asked you, you know, when we sat down in Vegas, put me and Debo on the White House card, please.

Please, we could be the first fighter tonight.

Yeah.

First fight of the night.

Now it's time for our final segment of the evening.

It's time for Q and A.

Hey, that'd be nice.

What do you think about that?

I come out in my nightcap, my nightcap stuff,

nightcap mouthpiece,

and James Harrison have on his

Debo and Joe.

Debo and Joe, man,

man, I beat.

Oh,

hey, huh.

I beat Debo so bad.

I have his nose on his forehead.

You hear me?

I have his nose on his forehead so he can smell what he's thinking.

That's how i'm feeling that's how you feeling yeah that's how i'm feeling i'm oh boy dr frankie l bellamy up

you know we cool but a house is divided tomorrow when my cowboys take on your broncos yeah we're gonna put pussy y'all doc just so you know that

uh

christen fields keep the same ryan slander uh don't change

guys what you want me to do the guy's been inconsistent this year so you want me to base everything on on what he did last year and just disregard what he's doing this year?

Y'all know how this works.

In sports, you have to update your resume on a weekly basis.

You don't get to say, I was great last year and played like some stir-fry this year, and we just forget what we see.

Everybody sees Ryan Williams is not playing well.

He's been inconsistent, far too many drops.

Jason Zeldorf prime gets so many many excuses for his team being bad.

They weren't good.

Halloween came early for Coach Prime.

He will have nightmares from this butt kicking.

Oh, Joe, what was the final score?

I got a PP.

Put it up right quick.

Let's see what that final score was.

Let's see what this final score was.

Oh, man, it's 46-0.

Oh, Lord.

At least they had the Utah 24, so maybe they get a touch.

Don't get shut out.

This is horrible.

Damn, time.

No, ain't no excuses.

They're not good.

Ain't no excuses.

I mean,

let's be realistic.

The difference between, and I'm not going to excuse 46 to nothing.

What was the score?

The score is 46-0 with 11 minutes to go in the game.

Okay, but hold on.

This is the good thing.

Now, let's look at the positive.

Let's look at the positive.

All right.

They scored 43 in the first half, right?

Yeah.

At halftime, it was 43-3.

So it's only 11.

43-0.

They ain't scored nothing.

Colorado him scored.

But listen, they held him to three in the second half.

Yeah, the starters didn't play the second half.

But anyway, as I was saying,

Colorado doesn't have the expectations LSU does.

Now, that doesn't excuse Time for not losing games or losing like this.

But to try to compare Colorado to LSU without the staff, without the resources, without the horses,

is just

a false equivalence.

Now, if Time was at Florida, he's at Florida State, and he was losing with the expectations, that's one thing.

Not to excuse him, this has been a disaster this year.

Now, I didn't have expectations.

They lost their two best players.

Well, three of their best players.

Jimmy Horn,

who's playing in, well, he was, I don't know if he still is,

in Carolina,

Travis, and Shador.

So I didn't have the expectation.

So

I want y'all to tell me what did y'all expect, realistically.

What did y'all expect Colorado's record to be?

It's hard.

It's hard.

It's hard.

Nobody had said Prime had

college football playoff aspirations.

If you didn't make the college football and your quarterback,

the best player that won the Heisman, Jimmy Horn, if you lose your players like that, you think you're going to be better or worse this year than you were last year.

I mean, you're right.

Look,

look, I get it.

I get a lot of y'all.

Y'all don't like Coach Prime.

Yeah.

Y'all want Coach Prime gone.

I get all that.

And it's been a disaster season for Coach Prime.

He's had a lot of issues going on, but nobody cares about that.

Nobody cares about your health.

This is what you signed up for.

Hey, oh, get well soon, Coach.

And the moment you get back out there, people don't want to hear about that.

That's just the way life life operates.

That's just the way it is.

Especially in sports, huh?

All they care about is wins and losses.

Yep.

That's it.

Oh, they got it first and goal at the Utah one, so they're going to score a touchdown.

See, told you.

Hopefully.

Hey, you know what?

I just thought about what you thought about.

Hey, as I sit here and think, right?

Hey, chat, tell me what y'all think about this.

Dana White, I know you're probably going to see this too.

How about me versus Nate Diaz?

Because I know Debo is probably going to be scared.

Caden Salter is out of the game.

He's 9-22 for 37 yards and an interception.

Utah quarterback with 10 of 22.

Utah done played three quarterbacks, Ocho.

Well,

one quarterback with 10 of 22, 142 touchdowns.

One guy got, Ocho, one guy got 20 rushes, 151 yards and a touchdown.

Another guy got 10 carries, 145 yards and a touchdown.

One guy got eight carries for 25 yards.

So 43 carries for 330 yards.

Jesus Christ.

We've been talking about this.

We've been talking about this all year.

They still cannot consistently stop the run.

How many times have we seen teams rush for 200, 300 yards?

You ain't winning.

I don't give a damn what you play.

You ain't got them hogs up front, huh?

I mean, the hogs you do got up there, they ain't got enough rocks in their back pocket like you say

it's hard it's hard to stop the run you ain't got no meat and potatoes 10 carries for 145 yards you give them 14 and a half yards of carry

hey listen it's hard boy

it's hard

they need to get the ball in the end zone that's what they need to do

Obviously, Utah is going to do everything they can to keep him out because I'm trying to pitch a shutout.

Colorado is going to do everything they possibly can to get the ball in the Amazon because he doesn't want to get shut out.

OTA Ray,

Utah should be flagged for unsportsman like conduct for what they've done, what they're doing to Colorado.

Yeah, they're putting, but that's what you do.

Yeah, that's not sportsmanship.

Yeah, it is.

I do.

See, here's the thing, Ocho.

Coach told me, son, if we beat a team bad, we do them a favor.

We let them know that you don't have what it takes to compete with us.

Because see, if the game is close, you're going to say a player here or there.

When somebody beats you 46-0, when somebody beat you 50-0, they beat you 46-7.

What do you tell your team?

You were right there?

We were close?

Nope.

No, no.

Beat them.

Run the score up to let them know what you have isn't good enough.

Yeah.

Yeah, that sucks.

East Coast Cav, tell your boy Prime to get better coordinators.

They play calling is horrible.

They might as well get chat GPT at this point.

Have they scored yet?

I don't see.

What channel are they playing on?

I don't know what channel it's on.

I'm just looking at the, what you call them.

I'm looking at the

Colorado call a timeout.

They call it timeout.

Terry underscore T60.

All Indiana sports teams are rising to to the occasion.

Fever, Pacers, Colts, Hoosier, Caitlin Clark effect is real.

She inspires greatness.

The Fever got a lot farther than I thought they would

without Caitlin.

But guys, Kelsey Mitchell is sensational.

She's an all-WNBA, all-NBA player.

Aaliyah Boston took another step forward.

They're going to be really good.

The Pacers, they played with the double overtime last night with

OKC.

It took Shea 55 points and double overtime to pull that thing out.

The Colts have been the surprise of the, and for me, it has been the surprise of the NFL

this season thus far, Ocho.

Yeah.

I don't think anybody thought they would be, excuse me, playing this well with Daniel Jones,

but they're playing sensational.

The defense is getting after people.

Jonathan Taylor is Jonathan Taylor.

Yeah.

They got skilled position players that are really, really good.

And we knew that.

We talked about the skill position players.

We talked about the offensive line.

We said all they have to do is get competent quarterback play with the skill position players and the offensive line that they got.

That's all they need.

And

Daniel Jones is giving them more than that.

Shakur said, Ash don't appreciate being timed out

and they need to do nothing.

She did.

She gave me faulty information.

Philly, talk with PA.

I find it funny that y'all don't talk about when Josh Allen and Justin Herbert struggle in zone, when they have better play calling, keeping a book.

See what you do, bro.

I ain't going to even entertain that because you always trying to find something.

Ocho,

it always comes down, y'all talking about the black quarterback.

Ocho and I ain't finna dignify that.

Come with something better, bro.

We're not finna do that rage-ish over here.

Feas, New Jersey, let AJ read some more books on the sideline.

AJ said he done ran up through all the books he gonna read.

Trey Tyner said, man, Unk said halftime.

Like the guy said, stop side when he got pulled over.

Yeah, man, hey, look.

At 43, nothing, what you gonna go out there and do?

Miss run and get somebody hurt?

Nah, it's 46-6.

46-6, now?

Yeah, see, they scored.

Okay.

Yeah, they did.

They did the touch push.

Did they?

Yeah.

Can y'all please tell me as a professional, how in the world is Frank Gore able to play all those years with no knee pads?

Hey, I don't know.

I don't think he had no damn thigh pads either.

Hey, no, he didn't.

And his pants was way, way up above his knee.

Like he had on some damn

some shorts.

Now you got to have knee pads.

Now, I don't know how having knee pads help with concussions, but hey.

I don't know how knee pads help with torn ACLs, patella sprained MCL, PCLs, and any other ligament in there.

I don't know.

But the NFL deemed it like, hey, you got to wear knee pads.

Hey, they say you got to wear knee pads.

You got to wear knee pads.
