1:26For a win at 0 and 3, they'll take on the one and two packers at Ray J at one o'clock. What is your confidence meter in the buck and ears heading into this matchup? Good afternoon, tap of A welcome back. None yet. For oh seven on your right home. Our number three of the drive on this letter right Thursday. T cries and Chris Mathis alongside were driven by Moss Nesau were live inside the road. Everyone water studios have double D. A. E. Power locally by my guys over at Ferguson HVAC. Spiky of which at the bottom of the hour. I can't wait. Let it ride some big college games this weekend. We're going to talk about that. There isn't NFL game tonight. The Browns who beat the buck and ears will take on the Steelers who will beat the buck and ears at about two weeks. A couple of two on one teams. What? I thought that I'm a little bit. All right. Maybe that was a little insulting. That just goes the show. I mean, it reflects my low level of confidence in the bucks at this point.

2:30Like I haven't seen anything to make me believe that they're about to flip to switch. And I hope I'm wrong. But look, I had the bucks losing at Cincinnati week one. That happened. I had them beating the Browns and I was wrong about that. And I don't I can't find one person. One not one. And I looked at entire week. Okay. Leading up to the Browns game and that's going to be the game. I'm telling you that ends up being the tipping point. The beginning of the end of the Todd Bolzerah was the Browns game in my humble opinion. I can't find one person. Chris Mathis that entire week that picked the Browns. Nobody picked the Browns. That week that I can find even the beat riders up in Cleveland. We had one of them on. Remember that guy, the the the athletic Browns guy, Zach Jackson, I think his name was he shredded the Browns shredded him.

3:32That's how embarrassing that loss was. He didn't give the Browns a chance in that game, Tom. He was like, there's no way the Browns lose his football game. There's no way. Oh, when this football game, you know, the Sean Watson, everyone wants to run him out of town. The Browns are terrible. And they beat the box. That to me was the low point. It's going to be the low point of the entire season. We're going to go go back to the Browns game and then Vikings like once the once they lost to the Browns, like I just felt like the season was unraveling Vikings, Bryant Flores, Blitz happy defense. The old line not playing well for me. Yeah. I picked the Vikings to win. So I reconvened who joined us earlier. He's 0 for three on his bucks game. They picks. I'm two and one. Who do I like on Sunday? You could tune in tomorrow, but I can tell you my confidence meter on a scale of one to 10 is out of four. And Chris Mattis, you talked me into a four.

4:33I ain't going past four though. Until what maybe that injury report tomorrow, the injury report may or may not have an impact on my confidence meter rating. What about weather? Could weather help out in this regard on Sunday? The weather looks good. It's a sunny day. One o'clock kick off. We're not having to worry about Jalen. Maybe losing the football. Are you worried then Tom? Oh no, dude. You you haven't seen the latest weather report. I have not 80% chance of rain on Sunday. Oh no. Oh no. Uh oh. Confidence is dwindling on the dry. Oh yeah. Like the highest percentage chance of presep. It looks like. Wait, what is it here? Actually, you know what? It says here later in the day. Don't be fine. Hey, you know what? You got a three headed running back monster. If you can find a way to utilize them and Kenny Gainwells touched the ball a handful of times. Bucky Irvings. Look good when he's got the ball. Sean Tucker has yet to tote the football.

5:34If you can get that 300 monster against a bottom five run defense in green Bay, there is a chance, Tom. There is a bottom five rush defense coming in here. Yes. The packers got destroyed last week by the Falcons and for the season, they're allowing an average of 139 yards rushing per game. So it's really up to this whole line. You want to protect this kid of your sack Robinson, run the ball 25 to 30 times and then throw it somewhere in the 23 to 25 time range with some RPOs. You have to tailor the offense around this kid. Maybe some design runs, maybe some RPO action, maybe some roll outs because like Baker, you know, he's six feet tall. That's what he's listed as. And you're going to have to move the pocket. He may not be able to see over the line. And I think that was part of Baker's issues as well. That's why all of these teams, man, ideally, and looked at different some exceptions. So the rule, you know, Russell Wilson, up the biggest guy in the world, you know, he kind of made it work.

6:37But that's why a lot of these teams, they don't want shorter quarterbacks for that very reason because you want to stand tall in the pocket like a guy who's six, four, six, five is going to have an easier time seeing downfield than a guy who's six foot, six one. But I like this about Jalen Daniels. I love his charisma. I love his energy. I love his confidence level. He handles himself very well. He carries himself extremely professionally. And I'm rooting for him. I think it would be a great story if he goes in there, doesn't turn the ball over, operates the offense, distributes the ball, makes a couple plays with us like he's got to be smart though. He's got to learn from the guy he's replacing. Listen, throw it away. Okay. Two thousand two, a thousand by two and a half seconds, you got to make a decision. Throw it away. Get outside of the tackle box. Throw it out of bounds. Make sure it gets an alignment. Scrimmage. That's something a lot of young quarterbacks don't know or can't remember.

7:42Like when you get outside of the tackle box, you got to make sure that ball gets to the line of scrimmage or unless there's a short receiver in the flat, a receiver in the area if you're throwing the ball away. So he has to be aware and cognizant of all of the rules now that he's the starting quarterback. Pound the run. Stop the run. Force turnovers. Look, the bucks are going to have to play like a really clean game and the packers are not world beaters. We know that. I don't think they're very good. They're bad. In fact, but I think they might be good enough to beat us. That's how bad we are. We're on the air to six o'clock. Don't forget Brian Hartline, USF football fans. He's going to join me coming up in the next hour. USF in temple at Ray J on Saturday. Saturday is going to be a glorious sports day and night folks here in Tampa Bay.

8:44Lightning home opener at Benchmark against Washington, USF and temple at Ray J and then over at the top game one of the American League Division series, Ray's and Yankees. Let's go to Glenn in Pinellas Park. You want to talk about the black and ears? Glenn, what's up? Hey, if I want to play a T-Craft, I'm going to go up and join the staff. What's up, buddy? How are you? I'm good. I'm a drop some folks up. And what is the topic is always being you go back and forth with. I know you've got a long show here. The top ball day watch that I said it the same guy. You don't agree with that the same guy. I think you can admit that at this point. But now the other thing I want to talk about is, they can make you feel. The thing about it is, the last two coordinators didn't make it job based on the play of Becker-Maysfield. Correct. Yes. Yes. And you know why they did that?

9:44Because they didn't know. They don't know. Becker-Maysfield got the heart and the mindset of Brefford without the arm. The last two coordinators, they figured that out. It's one, two, three, let it go. Every time he's been in a situation where those long, fairly step drops on a play, got to develop, he does have the other one. He was terrible. But let me just drop you with this, though, because you know my best friend. There's no coach, Dave Johnson, Don Schulow, shame guy. I hang up a little. You want there, huh? I don't know if I go that far, Glenn. Always great to hear from you, big bears, man. I've been hearing from Glenn for years. I like Ben Johnson quite a bit. I mean, what he did on Monday night with a 38 year old case kingdom. I mean, that just goes to show like how gifted of an offensive coach, Ben Johnson is. My case kingdom was their third string backup and he had complete command of their offense.

10:47And the Eagles had no idea what they were doing. None. So a good coaching will do. It must be nice to have a good coaching, you know, somewhere helping out. You guys don't know. In fact, you don't know what you don't. He's what I do. No, I do know. We don't have good coaching. We don't have guys who go out there, call it up, scheme it up, get some plates down the field. We don't have any of that stuff. Oh, boy, let's go to Mike and Sam. Mike, what's going on on this letter, right Thursday? He cries. First of all, I want to say go bolts, go bolts, go bucks and go raised. I wanted to inject a little little hope into the radio station today and then I got out with you, rather. I'm going to put on my Todd Bulls cap and say these have been three one loss games. Right. You're not getting boat race. You're not getting blown out of the water. You're making these mistakes that could be correctable, should be correctable. There's the only little piece of optimism I have to hold on to right now is that these

11:52are one score game, one's a special team's the buckle. You're not running the ball after a two hour randling. Randling Barber City has never been in a randling career. I think it's a little, I get why they do it. We have the technology now, the sense is the lighting strikes. I think he said something funny. I thought the thing being to sign a waiver and get out there and play football. There's my hope for the bucket ears. I got to what would you rather here? Would you rather the bucks go all in 17 like the race win the World Series or bucks lose the NFC championship game, but the race goes to the World Series. That is what the fuck all. Oh, in 17 bucks, race win the World Series or the bucks lose the NFC championship as I already said. And then the race lose the World Series.

12:55So bucks at least get to an NFC championship game, but for sure, that would be exciting coach, but we're like, I don't know. That's an alternate universe away from us right now. Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Or the race lose the World Series. So you have the bucks falling short. NFC title game falling short, race getting to the World Series falling short. That's for you guys to pick a part on the side. I'm going to do that right now, Kevin Cash. And I would rather see a championship. Yes. I'm going to pick race winning the World Series. That's a good one. Mike, I appreciate that. You're a day late. By the way, for would you rather we do that on Wednesdays? Coach, oh, in 17 would not be a laughing matter because that means you're going to be out. That would also mean see, I'm trying to look at the positive side. I would also mean the bucks get the number one overall pick.

13:56So the bucks get the number one overall pick. The race. Well, look Baker, you know, I don't know if they would pick a quarterback because you're still signed for two years, guaranteed. So the bucks would take that number one overall pick and then we put it up for auction and you can get a Kings, ransom and return. You've got the Browns with two first round picks. The Rams have two first round picks. If they want to move up the jets have three first round picks. Yes. That's right. And that means more help for you. Maybe we compare you up with, I don't know, Jeremiah Smith, maybe a Colin Simmons and I can't come up with a third guy. Oh, no, I was going to say the kid from Notre Dame, the corner, Leonard Moore, but I kind of, the bucks corners, I think they're okay. Not offensive lineman, maybe an interior guy, Trevor Gooseby, maybe of Texas, who knows?

15:00But I think there would be a lot of tantalizing possibilities. Not for you, but I think for the future of the bucks. Yes, coach, it would be exciting. Look, I like Todd personally, but it's just, it's going down a dark path. But yes, I would take that. I would take Owen 17 because you're getting the number one overall pick and I would take the race winning the World Series. And what if this plays out? I mean, we're going to find out we're getting one step closer to both of those happen. Let's be real about it. If you lose the green Bay on Sunday at home, I'm not putting in passes, bucks, football team. I wouldn't say Owen 17. I think that's a little far fetched. I will say this, it's going to be Owen six at the very least because they're not going to be talus and then Pittsburgh comes in here. There will be, if you think this week is going to be last week was bad with the purple shirts. Okay.

16:00This week's going to be even worse because I do believe it'll be three quarters packer fans, a lot of green and gold. And then wait until you see what the next home game looks like when the Steelers come here, have you ever seen terrible towels in any place but Heinz field or whatever they call that place up in Pittsburgh, you're going to see like 30,000 Steeler fans waving their stupid terrible towels in our stadium. Do you know how embarrassing that's going to be? Don't get ready because I think it's going to happen. Jesus. If you're looking for the name of that stadium up there, the Steelers plan. It's Minecraft mansion. Oh, minecraft mansion with coach Talon. Get out of here. You'd keep your mouth shut if you knew it was good for your buddy. I will take a time out. Check a traffic is coming up.

17:01Don't forget Brian Hartline in one hour from now, the USF football coach, a big one Saturday, a USF in temple at Ray J go us at bulls.com. Get on it and get there. What a great sports day on Saturday. All right, when we come back, a lot of great college games. There's an NFL game and what about those Buccaneer player props, Buccaneers and only playing the Packers on Sunday. I'm ready to get about the Steelers. Oh my gosh. Do you think Jalen Daniels can go over or under his passing yards prop? We'll discuss it coming up next, a little letter ride action here on the show. Let's see that again. E-A-E, track it up.
