Let's clear the air about hybrids with Kia. I live in Pasadena, so my Kia Telluride Turbo Hybrid has to do a little of everything. School bags, speech chairs, a grocery run, I swore would be small. And somehow there's still room in my sister-tex. I'm landing in Burbank, come pick me up. It seats seven, has over 600 miles of range, and makes the 134 feel a little less like a test of character. Space, range, flexibility. The Kia Telluride Turbo Hybrid is built for the way LA moves. Find your way forward at Kia.com. Kia, movement that inspires. Jason is an avid hiker who loves the outdoors. During what should have been a peaceful hike, that calm was suddenly broken. A mountain lion appeared on the trail just yards away. Fortunately, Jason had packed his Bernaless lethal launcher. Armed with kinetic rounds, Jason fired a warning shot, deterring the mountain lion and giving his family time to get to safety. Bernaless lethal launchers fire powerful kinetic and chemical irritant rounds, designed to stop threats. Visit Berna.com. That's B-Y-R-N-A, Berna.com.

Yeah, too bad. The fact that they got dog walked by a third string quarterback. Got your ass kicked. What a way to start the show too. Yeah, he's huge. Douglas trying to make light of the fact that the Eagles that he covers and loves and used to play for. I love it. Got absolutely trowls. You're listening to a plumbers 911 football Monday on a Tuesday presented by BC Bank and great clips. So over at WIP, Tanny, I'm just guessing here from knowing a few Eagles fans and dealing with them that they totally took it in stride. That everything was fine and that tone that was set by those guys on WIP, they were able to just kind of be like, all right, settle in and see some of the good that happened for them last night. Right. And Ben Johnson definitely absolutely did not break their spirit in any way. Let's go the phone lines here. Chuck and Mount area up first this morning. Chuck, good morning. Joe Julia, what's up? What's up here? Listen, let me say this, man.

It just looks eerily similar to what he looked in the past. You know what I mean? And listen, I'm not going to lay the blame at the feet of the quarterback. You know, that would be totally unfair. But I'm going to say this, right? My intent is, my eyes are wide open with this quarterback. To me, he's not a force multiplier. This team exposed this man. They exposed this last year and they exposed this this year. And the thing about it is Ben Johnson runs circles around Nick Serion. I'm at the point now. And I don't mean that I'm not going to throw in a towel on a season. But I've seen this coming. I'm at the point now where I just want to, I'm almost at the point now. I want to fresh start with the quarterback and with this head coach. Just head coach is a, you know, I sput it like it. But he's a moron. Okay, I mean, he's a moron. You know what I mean? And the quarterback is just not good enough. And it's a force coordinator. The full office of coordinator has come in here. And the thing still looks the same. And you know, the common denominator's all. Those two, the coach of the quarterback. You're right. I mean, check you are. I'm right.

Is that one call? Is that one guy who said that Jalen Hertz, who's had an incredible NFL career? Super Bowl MVP, Pro Bowl or Jalen Hertz. He's not a force multiplier. And they're absolutely trashing Nick Serioni, who has the best record in the NFL since he became a head coach. I do wonder though about Nick. If they, if they, if he needs to go back to calling plays, I mean, now in a space where AJ Brown isn't there anymore. Five offensive coordinators for five years under an offensive minded head coach is an odd thing. It is. That's also a very common quip about Nick Serioni. Like you hear with Matt LaFlor where Packers fans like they think he's a little soft. Eagles fans think that Nick Serioni is a moron. Now, but surely stupid. That was just an outlier call. Like truly there's not other people that feel that way in Philadelphia for their Super Bowl winning head coach in quarterback. Well, in the Northeast. What's up? Well, try Eagles. Cry. Listen, man. That was, that was like, I'm a keeper of being man.

Keep it a bail. Don't keep it a being. I'm just watching that. Let me cook without interrupt me. Please, you know, I forget my trying to throw it. This is what I best came before season even starting, right? Don't kind of tighten up. And you know what I looked at last night? It looked like a stupid thing in my tic. You know what I'm saying? They underestimated their opponent. They didn't have no preparation in the show last night. And now, now you have to figure it all out because that's what a offensive line in what it used to be. And it's not going to get any better. So you've got to figure out how to put better bodies in there. You used that 12 personnel. You used something to give Jalen a little bit more time in that battlefield. You used something to give, uh, St. Rob Barclay more blocking down. Feel, you know, down. I'm just trying to see it the same one thing we got that we broke with last things. Well, this is the last thing that I formation. Guess what they was doing. They ran it on it. They had success with it. And guess what? They was doing a heavy up with it. And guess what?

They dove this with it. And you know what else happened? They wore our defense down. They walked down. And that's why they they blew us out the way that they did. They're taking up defense. They're taking up all of it. And definitely, Sherry, are you taking up and let the offense coordinate it? Call the police. You got it, Will. Appreciate the fun. I got that. That's his angry, uh, Will fired up as I heard in a while. Well, good for him. He he made some really good points. One, I've got nothing to add there. Sequan Barclay was averaging five and a half yards of care. Sure. Yeah, last night. And they kind of went away and Gameflow does that sometime. I think some bears adjustments happened as well. I agree. Cam Jurgings is a better center than guard. OK. And over the last month, that has been exposed. But they don't have another choice. I will say the problem that to me with the call is the complete negating of the possibility that the opponent is any good. When you say it's Buster Douglas and Mike Tyson. Yeah, that's for your dick. The only problem is that Buster Douglas beat your ass at your place last year

and went further than you in the playoffs. Well, listen to that. That's a different. It's just it was an emotional game, right? Everyone wants to weigh in. Everyone's got an opinion about that game last night. I mean, Oh, Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Heavenly Doug. What did you think of the Monday night performance by your bears? I think what did I think? Stop yourself. If you think you need time to think about what you saw last night. OK. I've taken from somebody who's up here. That was a slice of heaven. And you better go back for seconds, boys. All right. We're live. 104.3. The D in the B. That's a phone. If you're nasty, Uncle Doug's postgame prayers are brought to you by Ronnie's number four. Ronnie's number four. A 417 South wall bash. Ronnie's. We're under the L track. But you'll always come back. Tell him Doug big, tell him what I have known my own name. You're tell him big Doug said, you'll get that percent off any dine in meal plus free weapons. Oh, it's heavenly Doug.

Heavenly Doug who said that last night's game was a slice of heaven. Take it from him because he's up there. What'd you love most about that game? Heavenly Doug. I'm going to tell you what I love. OK. I love seeing an old guy get it done. All right. Case, key in him closed. He was like the Mariska Argettiesh or whatever her name is. On law and order S-S-U-V, up there close to the last case. Tom. I love it. Execution is everything. Look at that little brat kid from the Game of Thrones show. He wasn't good at anything, but he knew how to execute. Jeffrey or golf free, whatever it is. I'm we didn't watch the Game of Thrones up for you over at Warner's Saunders place. He's got a nice spot. I'm about to make you. I'm going to tell you one more thing. Yes, yes, please. Yeah. It might get you through a scary airplane ride, but we got too many safety blankets on this wide receiver core. We need somebody to take the top off like a bottle of glad finish and pour it around.

OK. Rome and Rome. Rome may not have been built in a day. All right. But his three seasons enough time. I like this kid, but I'm yelling his draft pick number nine, like a German. Every time he drops something out of the bread past. Seriously, that was a touchdown in his hands and he bought. I've stopped yourself. You got a guy who's two years away from a walker with tennis balls on the bottom, throwing you a great pass. And you can't pick it out of the outfield like a dandelion little league kid who's bored. He did jump over early. Heavenly Doug, what do you think about the rookie tight end Sam Roush? I liked the Roush, but I'm going to tell you this. OK. He's like a favorer Roush egg. You need to just stop these so gentle. Let's let's push it on here. Let's play the game in the system that you've been given. I don't need you get an anti-impancy. And if anybody's seeing Calls the Loftland, you tell them to give me a phone call. He's about to, he must have gotten disconnected.

He shut off his sidekick wherever the phones. These kids are using them out. I don't think they're using the sidekick anymore. I think they know how to use it in board, man. OK. Stop yourself. All right. Sorry. It didn't mean to upset you, Doug. Heavenly Doug. The best hearing from him. Complete some bears Monday on a Tuesday. That didn't it. It really does. Thanks again to Plumbers 9-1-1 for a football Monday on a Tuesday. Presented by Busy Bank in great clips. This show is off the rails. Off the rails. It's a good thing. Guy is about to have a Walker with Tedus Balls on. He can play. And you know what? If case key to him had a Walker with Tedus Balls on the bottom, I'd still start him this week. I'm still, yes. I'll dare you. The White Tocks are leading five nothing right now in the bottom of the fifth inning of their game against the Astros who don't know what hit him so far. The line has been moving over and over and Colesamont Gummary

with a big home run as well as a double play to end the base of the low to threat. We will have thoughts on that game and tonight's game. The Cubs and Padres. You will hear that game starting at 825 with our pregame. Judson Richards is going to be in the house. Judson. He's going to be here and he's going to be talking baseball and getting you ready. We are excited for Alex for Tanny for my partner Matt Spiegel for baby T five six David. I'm Lauren Tom saying thank you so much for loving support. You show us every single day. We will do our best to repay the favor tomorrow starting at two o'clock right here on the score. This is Piratini Sanca night from Chicago. Rahimi and Grotee mid days 10 a.m. to two on the score. It's different. It's not like it used to be with the Chicago Bear. Ben Johnson is not like his predecessors and this is just another checkpoint. We all had some doubt here. That was a win for the Ben Johnson system. And frankly, Ks. Keenum the NCAA's all-time passing leader with over 19,000 yards.

Was considered a system quarterback at what time. But you know what that usually means. You have a good system. Rahimi and Grotee mid days 10 a.m. to two on Chicago's sports radio. 104 three the score. And live on the free Odyssey app. Let's clear the air about hybrids with Kia.
