One thing I've learned is nobody really knows what's going to happen next. Before the snap, you can study the defense. You can know the play and you can see the opening. But eventually you have to make a decision and go for me. That was the fun of football.
The moment between getting the ball and finding out whether you made the right read, I loved it.

It's called Betrayed by Bill. It was in that moment I caught who was staring back at me in betrayal or more like what? My insurance bill with trembling hands are grabbed my phone and switched to GaiKo saving about $900 in the process and never to be betrayed again.
Now that was bloody riveting. It feels good when the story ends with savings. It feels good to GaiKo.

Until Christmas until December 20th. Yeah. Where's that bonehead? You know, figures probably hiding and shame after his week ass. Yeah, Cardinals take. I would have called in sick if I was rich also. Where is he? Hey, by the way, we're streaming live at Kavino Enrochi FSR on YouTube. Hope you had a great weekend. Hope you had a Cardinals sort of weekend. Giants, Vikings sort of weekend. Orion Garcia sort of weekend. OK, Danny G. I see your raiders over there is Kavino. Where's Rich? You find this. Oh, wait. Oh, wait. Get a load of this. We be rocking out. Let's go. Look at this guy. The walk of shame into the studio. You better. Right here. The show that takes accountability. Thank you, Rich. The show that gives you a payoff. The show that holds themselves accountable. When they say week ass stuff. I'll say stuff. Are YouTube numbers are going to go through the roof right now?
You have anything to say to the Cardinals fans? Do I have anything to say to the Cardinals? Why don't you tell them what you told me even though you take accountability and be in wrong? Why don't you tell them what you told me? And by the way, I hope you enjoyed all the games. We're talking lots of football today. We're playing last one standing. We're giving away prizes. We're going to talk some miles, Garrett. What would you do if you were Aaron Donald? I have an idea. We have lots of stories to get to today. And of course, things that made you go from week one, but anything to say to the Cardinals fans. Oh, there's Cardinals fans. Yeah, they don't got fans that team and they're excited because they look solid. Yeah. I've been on their bulletin board material. You know, for those who maybe driving and can't get on our YouTube channel right now, describe Rich. Well, he's, you know, he's taking accountability. I respect that because how many shows and how many hosts? How many blabbermouth hardheads blow hardsteer here on TV and radio that just spits
stupidity and take zero accountability. At least this guy who speaks and spits the dumbest stuff takes accountability. So I give him credit for that. He's wearing a full on Cardinals costume. We're seeing his Halloween costume a few months early. Oh, Oh, our Arizona affiliates are loving this right now. We tell you, they bumped into the most ill prepared week ass offensive plan by Mike McDaniel, who I used to respect. This guy just cost me weeks of lunch. If you don't remember, Rich has been done on the Cardinals since we started talking football. Oh, they're going to lose. And he's been pumping up the charges saying McDaniel was going to unlock the greatness of Herbert. Dude, Rich said that they wouldn't have one win until Christmas time. One win if that against the judge. They want the opener against the Charters. I think food. I think they're going to have one win at Christmas now. Oh, I'm not only is he doubling down though.
He's tripling down on the fact that they just got lucky that the Chargers just played that back. Now they'll go with I couldn't believe how unprepared and how how do you think they're going to be able to do that? So you're blaming all of this on the Chargers. You're not giving the Cardinals any credit. We told you about the weapons they had on offense. And if their defense stepped up, their ceiling was five, six games. You were only giving them one win after Christmas. They won 26 14, pretty convincing, pretty strong. Yeah, of course, I don't believe the Charters played to their potential. But I think you got to give Jacobi Bresset and a lot of his new weapons, some some credit and some good coaching. Pride is a top tier tight end. Jeremiah Love did show that he's a great player. But like Jacobi Bresset played the greatest game of his life. He's tough. If you if you showed me two box scores and said one was going to be Herbert, one was going to be Bresset. I guarantee 99.9 percent of you would have said, oh, this is her. Ever requests what since you know, you're playing by our rules since you're a big loser of the day.
You got to say cuck-off there every sentence. Let me tell you because that's where people just listening. They got a punt blocked. Where is they they are in the red zone in the red zone a guy on the Charters bumped into his own teammate and fumbled. That everybody's watching. What's that? This is way better than the King trumpet music he was supposed to get. It's Jesus. And I can't wait to eat steak on your behalf because he's talked. This is weeks of smack talk and they won the first game. They're not going to do. They're not going to win week two against them by your sea hawks or week three against my Niners. The Giants will go less that's their. We don't want that. Danny G and I and I think took the stand that they weren't going to be that bad out of nowhere. They looked really, really solid and preseason. They made it to the good moves. They really did. I know it's just preseason, but you know, you can't say it doesn't matter just what it just when it caters to your your point. Right. So I thought they look good. I think preseason matters. They were playing tough. Whatever. They made a lot of good moves. And now now you're paying the price. What's up, DB?
By the way, we don't want Red Feathers Davis on the sea hawk side after the whole they got lucky and won. So don't try to jump on over just to try to take one to the Cardinals. I mean, you saw a Drew Lock did week one as a backup. It's only a five point spread. It would have been 10 if Sam Darlalde was there. It's a five point sea hawk spread at this point. So what do I owe you Nimrod's lunch this week? And it's a week until December 20th. I'm not sure once or red, red feathers Davis. Yeah. Yeah. Black card Davis man. His credit card is going to take a hit. But again, even though I'm embarrassed to be sitting next to this guy, at least we're the show. And he's the guy that takes accountability. You know, I think more shows and more people should because you know, we people say stupid things. And then like we didn't remember what they said the the week before. I reposted it the other day and I even called that some of our own Colin and and Nick Wright. And when they all when they went in, but when people know, like even in life, I mean, I'm not talking about how internet right.
But in life when people say something and you're supposed to pretend like it never happened. There was a montage that I reposted on my Instagram of all the people saying how, you know, it's a Rams tune up game. The Niners, it's a dude. They're playing for everything and and you know, the next day it's forgotten. I'll at least say something happened. Oh, I don't know what it was. Whether it's, you know, they're just better than we think they're perhaps a little more prepared. Maybe I didn't give perhaps maybe I didn't give stop saying prepared. They played well. Their defense got after Herbert the entire game. Or you could say and on the flip side, his offensive line was was pretty offensive. Right. So they want to know and they don't have they don't have all our O lines injured as an excuse. And again, anything happens just week one. They're not as bad as you made them out. They they was a fourth quarter sack that Justin Herbert took. That he gave like you don't want to ever show up your line. But did you see the one where he hands up his hands up like, oh, like no one like no one saw the left side.
Like two guys, you know, I think two things could be true. The the chargers underperformed. They're they're well-emming at best. Again week one and the Cardinals are a little better than you gave him credit for. And you pay the price as a result of all your smack talk. So hey, maybe your dad was right. Maybe you should have come down a little bit with your Cardinals take here. Oh, man, our YouTube chat is going nuts. Oh, yeah. I had to restart the computer almost everything. And Vince Garcia says two teams won yesterday by not having Kyler Murray in their lineup. Go figure. You know what? That's part of the things that made you go. I you know, let's get into it. We do it every football season. It's our first edition of things that made you go. Hmm. Things that make you go. Things that make you go. I said to Kavino. I said very few upsets. I just hate that the one game that like meant something to me as far as my running take on the show is the one huge
upset because besides that there were a couple teams that played tighter. The fact that the Saints pushed the Lions to that failed two point conversion. Like that could have went the other way. Yeah, the other team you put food. For the most part though, I said a lot of upsets, but there were some surprises. I said Niners. My Niners just sort of having their way with the Rams. DB talked about that the next day when him and Monsey filled in. But other than the Niners sort of handling the Rams and the Cardinals beating the chargers. A lot of the other games sort of went the way we thought they would like Steelers, Ravens, Bills, Bears, Jags like those are all. Those are all favorite teams. I think you weren't surprised that the Giants looked pretty sharp. You weren't surprised that the Vikings pulled that out with wence. So there were surprises. I'm not saying there were upsets, but I was pretty surprised with some of the outcomes and since the Carl's the Kavino and Rich listeners already brought up Kyler Murray. Let's talk about him. That was a little.
That was a little frightening to say the least. So Kyler Murray that looked really scary out there. We got on our group text like, oh, that was bad. You guys see that there was a moment where it was almost to a S grade like is he clunchen? Is he? He got rid of the ass. And he's a smaller dude out there. But you got to say it made you say, hmm. When you saw wence sort of take over and you saw their defense shut down green bad. I thought that was pretty interesting. Like what does that say about wence moving forward? What does that say about this team? I just thought that was pretty interesting. And you know, since they brought up Kyler Murray, I'll bring that up right off the bat. And this is where we get you involved as well. 87799 on Fox any takeaways, primarily football, but anything that you may have experienced in sports over the weekend, things that made you go. Week one NFL edition. All right. Can I hit you up with something? Sure. Let me hit you up with your boy Baker Mayfield who at times looked tough and battled.
But you know, Mr. Bruturfingers dude had a stay not have sticky fingers. Mr. Bruturfing guy was you know, just couldn't protect the ball and that game was closer than it should have been because Baker let that ball go one too many times. Like that's a game that Joe burrow and Cincinnati should be happy they got out. They got out of but they played wells. You know, also, how about something you hit me up with something I didn't notice. And I think you'll forget was Russell Wilson the guy this I liked his. I did not like his hairdo, but that do cares. Got a hair don't, but what I did like got to do. I mean, listen, I'm a big fan of the Fox team. Not because we work at Fox Sports, but you know, I like those knuckleheads like, you know, Terry Bradshaw and you know, they, you know, how we long we've known those guys for years. Jimmy Johnson, they're not very good at reading like the halftime highlights. They sort of stumble through them, but we accept it because they're lovable. So like shack and barkly where it's like they're just great. So we take it. Yeah. What was the vibe like he was confident and smooth. It was almost like like politely reading like sports center highlights.
Like he really was like he took a class. It's almost like he took a class like he was came prepared. He came. He came ready. I respect that. That's pretty cool. And I did see that during those halftime reports, he was sort of taken the lead voice in many of those spots and get this much like some of the teams that may have struggled or even look good. Russell Wilson is going to get better and better each week. You know, it's this week one. So that's pretty cool. That's a high compliment coming from professional broadcaster. Red Miss Dicky Redfathers Davis. Dinky Kaka Davis D. me in the fantasy world. Kavino goes, he goes, yeah, they're pretty good. The Bajan was okay. I go, Bajan had the production. He had only at one touch. He had to make me look dumb when you're wearing a stupid costume in a studio. He had he had the production numbers of a running back at a wide receiver in the same game, right? Yeah, he was the B Robinson show because even Brian Robinson got a little run for Atlanta. But when you had Cooper rush there, it was just a lot of Bajan Robinson. Let them targets. I led them in rushes.
It was a one man show and they hung with the Steelers for a while. Now, what was your take on the Jets Titans? Are the Titans just still far away or the Jets improve? And because we think the Jets will jet when they actually played decent, we're surprised. I think it's that. Yeah, think it's that. And I think the fans were punched down. Is Jeno more of a polished suitable like mid-level QB than we give him credit for? I think a defense at least has to account for Geno Smith throwing the football. Now he may throw it to the other team at times that has has happened. However, like he is going to get his weapons involved. There's also the thought that Tennessee is just not where it is. And there are some people who wondered why Robert Salah even took this job. Because you go to the Jets and then that doesn't work out. Then you go to the Titans. You don't get third chances a lot if you don't have any success whatsoever. We have had that conversation many times, D.V., where you only get a third chance if you've had success. Yes. And you said guys, look at a second chance, but you're not going to go over to and have two terrible tenures
and get a third shot. And we were obviously concerned with Tennessee coming in. But to take nothing away from the Jets, they went there on the road and got a win. How about the bear scoring 59 points? Could have probably scored more. My biggest takeaway from the weekend. And remember they said not only they're going to beat teams, they want to clobber teams and score the most points ever. 59 points against the Panthers, not a bad start, but is their defense suspect because they let up 37 points? Or can the Panthers score as well? Or the Panthers good because young looked alright. So like there's a lot of takeaways there. But man, I thought Caleb Williams, like solid, the guy ran when he had to. He dropped times when he had to. He scored 59 points, could have scored more. That was that was pretty significant stood out a lot to me over the weekend made me say, hmm, the bears because Rich posed a question on her Patreon to me before he said, who do you think the top five teams were this weekend? I said, let's over react. I mean, we're, you know, into week one. Who's that? I mean, we don't know. It's only one week. But I'd have to have the bears in that conversation if they're able to put up that many points.
But again, they let up a lot. So yeah, bears are in that conversation for sure. That's a major, major takeaway. Your thoughts on that. It made me go, hmm, I'll tell you what we'll find out. We'll find out next week. As of course, my phone's out loading when I'm looking. Who do the Panthers play next week? Are the bears? The is the bears defense Susto. That's that's the question. I'm a little confused on that Falcons Falcons. So if the Panthers put up, you know, another 28 plus spot, you know, they put up 37. Then we might say, oh, well, the Panthers could score. I think you can't, you can't look at the Panthers in that one game and really assess much because the bears we knew are going to be explosive. But 59 points. Look at anything except for you and that costume right now. But we can't, no, we can't look at anything week one and think that much about it. But you know, we got to work with what we got and it's exciting. Man, I could keep going things that make you go, hmm. Because I watched all these games and then I watched all the highlights again and again. And I was on the plane last night. So I'm trapped just watching direct TV, all the highlights on the way back.
So I have so many thoughts. By the way, we're coming back from the East Coast, back to the West Coast. We were at the Yankees Metz 9-11 tribute game. You may have heard us chime in. We called into Dan Byron, Monsey from the stadium. And man, what a great, great time. Heavy-hearted and emotional, but what a beautiful night. So it's good to be back and hope you had a great weekend. You know, it was frustrating for me. And I think we all experience bedbeats here and there when you're gambling. By the way, remember Draft Kings use our code. A bedbeat that I've experienced is you could live bet. Obviously, you see, you know, you go on the app and live betting. And at one point it was seven nothing lions. And I was able to get a pretty like even money bet on lions minus three and a half. And I said, Lions minus three and a half. I jumped on a quick and I'm like, sweet. They were up 21 nothing. It felt like the safest bet. And then even in overtime when they scored when they scored the Tuddy, you know, overtime, I'm like, all right, sweet. Now they just have to stop the Saints and it was like the only bad outcome that could happen.
I was going to talk about the giants and I'll get to that. Bad beat, but since you brought up the Saints. Yeah. How about this maybe say, hmm, how hard they battled the Lions and Tyler's sucks showing some heart. And they went for two at the end. They said, not a tie is no bueno. We're going for the win. Now that risky move. Again, if it works, man, the balls on that team, what a win. But it didn't. So it made me say, hmm, like is that too risky in that moment? What are they always say on the road? Go go go for it. Also because of the overtime rules, the Lions would have gotten the football back. It won the game when they've ended in a tie. The Lions would have had a minute and a half to go down and score and kick their own field. Goal. So a tie would have been the best probably that the Saints could have done in that situation. So not much of a debate for you. No, not at all. In fact, I'll say this because I said this on our show that carry roads and Montsebelanielson, I know do Sunday's five o'clock Eastern time to Pacific that I think there's going to be more of a conversation on would a team actually
go for two if they score the first touchdown and overtime. Remember when the Rams and Cocks played that Thursday night game when you have teams going up and down the field, you almost assume that the other team is going to score. Do you want to go for two to make sure that you can extend the game or do you how do you want to defend it? I'm not saying it's the smart move. I just think that you have a conversation about it like all right. Do we have a play here that we like because I think the Rams last year, yeah, they scored and they kicked the the extra point, but they knew Seattle was probably going to go for two at that point. Just like the Lions probably knew of the St. scored. They were going to go for two. And they covered it nicely. So yeah, they had to figure that out. You know what? I had two takeaways from that though, Rich. I feel like the Saints leave knowing they could battle and hungry because they were so close to winning that game. And then the Lions, if you watched after the game, Jared Goffs in the locker room really hyping up the team next level. I think they realized they could also battle, but they have to step it up a little because I was too close for comfort. My head night style, my observation with the Lions would be that since Ben Johnson
left, which has been over a year now, they're still missing that magic offensive sauce, like something's just not clicking the way when when Ben Johnson was running that offense. So they're still good. I mean, they're still there came in well came away with a dub, but I would say being that overtime is only 10 minutes, right? And my it's 10 minutes. I look at it like the urgency. You know, on baseball now they, you know, you start to run a second. Some people hated it at first, but it moves the game along. I feel like I feel like I still hate it. It looting to a damn buyer said it forces an urgency to like, hey, go for the win. No, like I think the 10 minutes, I don't think you'll see many ties because I think a team's like, what's a tie? Let's go for it or not. And I think you are going to see. It shows people. And I think you're going to see a lot of teams being like, let's go for the win or not. I think very rarely unless it's a playoff picture type of situation where I guess it's in. I guess it's in. I think most teams are not going to sell for a tie. I don't think we yelled enough on national radio last season that we need to extend that period by a few more minutes. But I think there's a weird urgency though, Danny.
It's sort of fun that like, wow, it's almost like overtime. It seems like it keeps ending the same way where that team has the ball. And they're like, what do we do here? Because we're not going to get the ball back. If I won the toss, I would try to run as much clock as I could. Yeah. So like that because even if you kick a field goal, the other team still gets the football, but there may only be two minutes left if you drove down the field and took off eight minutes. I was saved. You have a nice sweet eight minute drive where you're pacing yourself. You really couldn't leave the other team. Here's the ball. Two minutes. It was a fun battle. Fun fun battle. And we still have more things that made us go, but we go to your phone calls next. We want to hear from you Fox Sports Radio Nation, the Carl's and Carlita's, the Cavino and Rich listeners again, eight, seven, seven, ninety nine on Fox. And you got a chime in live.

Hi, it's Marcus Allen, pro football Hall of Famer NFL in DP and Super Bowl champion. I played football for a long time. One thing I've learned is nobody really knows what's going to happen next. Before the snap, you can study the defense. You can know the play and you can see the opening. But eventually you have to make a decision and go. For me, that was the fun of football. The moment between getting the ball and finding out where you made the right read, I loved it. And it's why I understand what underdog brings the sports fans because once you make your pick, you're not just watching anymore. Every snap matters, every yard matters, every decision matters. Everybody thinks they know what's coming next.

Today's story is shared by one of our listeners. It's called Betrayed by Bill. It was in that moment I caught who was staring back at me in betrayal or more like what? My insurance bill with trembling hands are grabbed my phone and switched to GaiKo saving about $900 in the process and never to be betrayed again. Now that was bloody riveting. It feels good when the story ends with savings. It feels good to GaiKo. Strong hands built America kept it running for 250 years. Strong hands also keep Copenhagen moving today.
Here's to the bravery of linemen, the endurance of truckers, the skills and welders, the traditions upheld by farmers and all American tradesmen sharing in our work ethic. Copenhagen celebrating American craftsmanship proven since 1822. Warning, this branch is not a safe alternative to cigarettes. It's Covino and I haven't been down here. Is it Rich Kakka Davis? Because your cardinals take us Kakka or is it Kaka? Kaka? Actually our video guy spot said. Cardinals being more of a chirp. Oh, I go. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there's songbird. Yeah. Rich Kakka Davis. Yeah, Rich Davis. The song, Where to the Generation, which is why you got to watch because he's wearing a cardinals costume. Not a uniform. He's not like dressed like. Preset or anything. He's dressed like an actual cardinal because he talks so much smack
about him and they look dominant in week one. Again, it's just week one, but we're going over all your observations and obvious observations on what we do every Monday after football during football season things that made you go week one of the NFL, Covino and Rich live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. I got back on the West Coast and we got the phone calls going at 877 99 on Fox. I got this what I was in the Scott Spezie, a fan club. Oh, my pool hall stays. Yeah, you're a big fan of the pool halls I heard stop it. All right. Get it. I know that. All right. Now I got one before we go to the phones because this is where we get interactive. Don't steal everyone's good. If it's a great, great take or whatever, Danny G's always on standby with prizes to give away, but we will play last one standing later today. Mm. Yes. I mentioned that we just got back from New York for the 911 tribute game. Yankees Mets, but New York football giants look like they showed big improvement and you know, Collins worth said it.
I noticed it. The poise that Jackson Dart had was noticeable. Now, college where I said, there's a guy right there. He said something about like, you know, you watched a guy last year and he was a predetermined passer. Like he knew who he was throwing two if it was an open. That's when he scrambled and he looked nervous. It was noticeable that he was in command and control of that game yesterday. I mean, I think it's just like the team made big improvements. They looked like they were for real. Again, it's just week one, but props to them. And I would say easy on the flips to scatter. Like you didn't your right ankle just sort of heal and you're flipping, dip in and I get it. You're the man and all that. But I'm concerned just watching the game. Like, hey, relax a little bit. Did you see scatter. Showed up only like hours before the game by the gate and he's like, I'm the running back. Let me in. But I thought that was pretty impressive. Did you learn anything new though? Here's another thought. Did you learn anything new about the NFC East? I don't feel like I did that much. Maybe that the giants are a little more polished. And I thought they'd be at this point. That's it. And and maybe like the, you know, the Eagles are for real,
but Washington hung there. How about how much we missed Malik neighbors? Right. Yeah, you say how quick dart was to give them the game ball. Gave them the game ball right away. And the owner gave the game ball to Jim Harbos and Harbos got the game ball in the locker room. Giants over the Cowboys 28 to 20. And you know, as played as it is, it still makes me laugh when Steven A Smith starts laughing at the Cowboys. Did you see his last night sitting there in his tank top at home laughing with his LeBron here. LeBron here. So anyway, your phone calls now. Let's go. Things that made you go week one of the NFL. Very exciting. We got Danny. All right. Let's go to Virginia. Michael's going to start things up. Hey, Mike. Hey, what's up, Richard? What's up? You guys you guys kind of stole my first one, but I'm but not really. I just want to let me go home as a doubt cowboy defense. All that money this thing that high draft makes that they got. Yeah, that looks like they just got really out coached by Harbos, especially with
I like it. I say it likely just tearing them off in the end size. Yeah, I think my call guys. That's like that. That was a good one for the workout coach. Likely great addition for the Giants. Yeah, clearly a target. No, much like how Mike Evans for the Niners just right away became part of the offense. Yeah, Sam called him the magnet. Yeah, who we got. All right, let's go to Georgia. Matt is in the house. Hey, what's up, Georgia Matt? What's going on fellas? I got two quick things. First thing that makes me go home is my Atlanta Falcons. Bring in a backup that gets hurt more than any to rip in case the core other quarterback that gets hurt all the time goes down and we're starting our third string quarterback first thing first game of the year. Yeah, it's pretty weird. It's not where you want to not where you want to be. And you know what, and you're doing all that and you you came close to the Steelers. It was only 20 to 13 and you know Aaron Rogers talking about his ex girlfriend, X fiancee, Shadleen Woodley that got some press. But Danny, we all have broaders. Kind of unnecessary. Roger is fatigue and I just think that I'm so intrigued where that team lies
because we were so impressed. I think about this. We were ultimately impressed with how Lamar and Derek Henry new coach same two superstars like you were reminded yesterday that's oh yeah, Lamar and Derek Henry when they're playing together healthy. There's no one's better. And then you see borrow. Don't forget the day Zay flowers out. Although he had an injury there. Yeah, Zay was unbelievable. And then you see Joe burrow playing focused and healthy. And then you see Cleveland's in the dumps and no one's worse, right? And then you're like, where's Pittsburgh? People are already calling for in the die. I feel like Rich's inner mom came out in the dumps. People calling for Sanders already. But like they are. Did you damn buyer probably caught wind of this because I know he keeps a keen ear on all the commentary. That last touchdown. I don't know who was calling the game, but you know that back door didn't cover anything, but that last second touchdown by Cleveland. The announcer was like so condescending, but didn't mean it was like, well, I guess that's something to build on.
Well, like something you would tell your little league kid. If you finally made contact, you know, like, well, that's something to build on. You know, they could go. They could go into the week two and knowing that they could get a touchdown. When you're already using those lines in week one, you know, it's going to be a long season. That's the guy's that's. Hey, it's something to build on. You know, they put the ball in the end zone. That's, you know, something brighter on the bright side. Well, yeah, that made us go. Who else we got there? One more. Yeah, Texas Dwayne. What's up? Hey, guys. Hey, I think you're taking my call. Could Carson Wednesday the Reclamation Project of Kevin O'Connell this year instead of Kyler, Murray? And I have another thought here. Is there a possibility to get King Carlos, our retirement and do a Carl party in Concouin? I'll drop off. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, he brought up one of our old school listeners from Chicago, King Carlos, who he parted with, which probably very pumped about his bears today. He has to be. He scored 59 points. But you know, except Chicago fans are like we need our defense to step up. Let me address that part of the question first.
We do plan on doing more live events. Big party in 2020 parties with not only our Patreon listeners, but especially our Fox Sports radio listeners. We want to, you know, join forces and force you guys to intermingle and interact and become one strong, the strongest family of Fox Sports radio. So let's do that for sure. Thank you, man. Now I'm thinking about Carson Wentz. Anyone have a guess without looking. I'll look it up. I just love how they played behind him and I love how the defense stepped up. When, you know, Green Bay just couldn't score after the decide I got it now. We're going to go to DB for an update. But before that, everyone without looking, how old do you think Carson Wentz is? Probably younger than we think the way you're. Well, keep in mind Carson Wentz was the man. Yeah, everyone thought he remember he was like MVP type of player. All of a sudden Nick Falls comes in, you know, big D Nick. They went to Super Bowl. He's never the same tossed around the league a few times, few stops and you like Carson Wentz.
Can't be that old. I guess 31. I was going to say 32. 32. Yeah, I'll stick with my guess. I 30. He just turned 33. All in the ballpark. So it was 33. You got to say like there's quarterbacks older than him. So when he says Reclamation Project pro Conno, it's not crazy to think about the cars. The cars. Has something in the tank? No. I think there's a conversation that if Kyle Murray is out any extended period of time that you just stick with Carson Wentz. Yeah, because of the investment are really lack there of with Kyle Murray. It's not that the Vikings wanted Kyle Murray. They just needed to find someone that wasn't JJ McCarthy. And they were thinking that Kyle Murray was maybe their best option. Wentz only through for 133 R just today, but also probably to get reps in practice. You know, throughout the week. Last year, but if they go in our three at all and four at all and Kyler Merz back, there's no obligation to give the job back to Kyler Murray. In that case, the Vikings are playing really good football. They're cruising. Yeah, that'd be sweet. All right. So it's hard to talk to you with a straight face when I'm wearing a cardinal costume.
I'm a little past it right now. I got to be Dan and I'm like, I'm wearing a costume. And really quick one thing that's crazy. None of us said JJ McCarthy. Like if you're another NFL team and your quarterback, Niddy, do you get a hold of the Vikings? Never how high ball was so high off of him coming out of college? He was saying like any team that gets some gold baby. Yeah, that's the only team that I think would want him to be honest. I think that Jim Harboh would think that he would be able to pull him in there and see what happens. All right. Well, we'll still take your phone calls week one things that made you go. 87799 on Fox, Kovino and Rich, but let's get an update from DB. What up, Dan? As I mentioned, that Kyler Murray is in concussion protocol because that's what Kevin O'Connell said today. He came in feeling, you know, pretty good today. He is in the protocol. So we'll, you know, we'll defer to the medical folks in that protocol for, you know, how the week goes. We'll just take it a day at a time. Vikings scored 22 points in that fourth quarter to beat Green Bay yesterday. It was a tough day for the bronze as we mentioned.
Head coach Todd Monkin was non-committal to the Sean Watson. After yesterday's loss to the Jaguars as for today. I anticipate the Sean will be our starter. It's only been two weeks. He's gotten all the reps and there were some really good things on film, some things that you can build on. And there were some others that, you know, operationally we got to get better at Ravens. Head coach Jesse Minner called water seevers a flowers day to day with his hamstring strain. The aforementioned gin harbaugh called lad McConkey day to day with his rib injury. Panthers, water seever Jalen Kochers says he'll be ready for week two despite wearing a walking boot after yesterday's lost to the bears. Falcons who the Panthers play next week lost defensive lineman to Sean Han for the season. He needs surgery to repair a torn quad muscle and lines running back as a patch. It was going to miss 12 weeks following back surgery. Broncos and chiefs tonight Monday night football next week. Monday night football has the Giants in LA taking on the Rams. Sean McVeigh was asked this today. Well Aaron plan Monday. Uh, we have haven't decided that yet. He's going to continue to work his process and you know, we'll see what that looks like.
That Aaron, meaning Aaron Donald as for miles Garrett. He is on injured reserve Florida state fired athletic director Michael Allford. It would have been on the jobs since 2021. And the Raptors and Clippers guys finally finalize that Kauai Leonard trade. So Kauai goes to Toronto. The Clippers get two unprotected first drum picks a pick swap in the first drum. Two second rounders in the deal. Brandon Ingram and Grady Dick are a part of the deal as well. 17 year vet Taj Gibson retiring from the NBA. He'll be an assistant to Tiago splitter in Chicago. Nice back to you. Thank you. And I was wondering all day yesterday, who has the Andre Swift in our fantasy league? That guy right there. Damn buyer. Help me in a week one for sure. Definitely put up some numbers for you. All right. We got more coming on rich and more your observations from week one. And of course it ends tonight. We still got one more game. The return of my homes and will the Broncos. You're talking about a team that fell short in the AFC championship game that probably thinks they shouldn't win all the way all that tonight. So we'll get to that right here on Kauai known rich. The way is over football is here and so is draft Kings.

Hey, it's Kavino and Rich. And I think we all got that one shirt or pair of pants that somehow ends up getting worn way more than we ever planned.

I played football for a long time. One thing I've learned is nobody really knows what's going to happen next. Before the snap, you can study the defense, you can know the play, and you can see the opening. But eventually, you have to make a decision and go. For me, that was the fun of football. The moment between getting the ball and finding out where you made the right read, I loved it. And it's why I understand what Underdog brings the sports fans. Because once you make your pick, you're not just watching anymore. Every snap matters, every yard matters, every decision matters. Everybody thinks they know what's coming next.

So even though Rich is a big fan of the pool holes. He's wearing the Cardinals outfit right there on screen. Flying away, Lenny Kravitz style. Because you guys talking too much trash about the Cardinals and they showed up. Week one things that made you go, hmm. Again, Kavino and Rich, the show that takes accountability. I'm proud of Rich.

parlay for tonight. I got a couple ideas going. Okay. Nice. A couple of ideas. We were actually so far. The only bet I've missed so far. We hit our teaser for the opening game with the Pat's and see hogs. We did well in the Niners game. We hit all our others except for anything, anything involving the Cardinals. Switch. So a couple of notes I just want to bring up. We did not lost the one bet that's going to cost you the most big dollar. Exactly. Actually, I think Rich put his foot in his mouth. I'm sorry. What is a bird foot called? Yeah. My talent talent. You put your talent in your mouth about something else. She can have large talents. Do you now blame Madison beer at all because you thought them doodling would never come back to bite him in the ass. Meanwhile, they look pretty terrible. You know what? I've thought in that whole. Okay. That was a story. Remember? Yeah. Justin Herbert's girlfriend was on the field and everything. I'm glad you brought that up in the show notes. It's at top of our two. Does Rich still feel strongly about Madison beer not being a distraction?
I sure did. Did you see it yesterday? Because it made me go home. I mean, we didn't ask you what she looked like. Oh, no, I have thoughts and I'll address more Ronic fans everywhere if you want me to. But I will say a couple of things. A couple of notes. We went over all our observations from week one and Danny. I apologize. It took us this long to give Max Crosby and your raider some love. I know it was the dolphins they beat, but you are exciting. You play who's on your schedule and you know, a guy that the Ravens like back that of a trade on because he was like made it seem like he was crippled. Yeah. Max Crosby looked pretty damn good. He was all over the field. How to a second and a half he was in on that second one fired up as usual. After that first act, you see him run to the sideline. So excited. The defense overall played great. And yeah, you know, I saw some haters on social media last night saying, calm down. You didn't win the super blow. It's the dolphins. But hey, they could have lost to the dolphins and then every one, those haters would have said, huh, you lost to the stinky dolphins. So you know, I can't win. You know, the probably the game of the two best teams have played each other yesterday.
We have an even mention that it's Josh Allen with that dart in the fourth quarter that. That like 30 yards slant down that that was a really fun game to watch. And then rolled right into Kurt Cousins. I wanted to mention his because I know he was kind of mid. He did drive the team right down the field on that opening drive and scored. And he looked he looked good. I mean, he had three short touchdown passes, but anytime he tried to throw down the field, it seemed like it was a problem. Ashton Gentie obviously stole the show on offense for Vegas. He looks solid. You know that, that, that, that, that, that bill's win. I think it did take away a little bit from the fact that I think Houston will be a force to be reckoned with this year. Just that they happen to, they drew, they drew the bills we want. Like I would not be shocked if Houston, the Raiders 10 seconds and then you went to the bills. I know man the Raiders, huh? Am I right? And I did want to point out one thing, not football related. Peter Lonzo returns to city field tonight for the first time. And apparently fans are all conspiring to like not like give this guy the biggest standing, the given the biggest standing ovation ever to let the
ownership know like you made him a mistake. He made me go when he didn't sign the guy immediately. He was the face and the clutch player for the team. And if you're going to stay away from football just for a second, what made me go, hmm, this weekend was how Ryan Garcia do. The highlights were sick. Dominating. He went to Mexico. Yet people still have a problem with him not speaking Spanish, which is ridiculous. It doesn't make him any less Mexican. Selena didn't speak Spanish. I really love Selena, right? Leave Garcia alone. And of course I'm going to say that because your boy here doesn't speak Spanish really that well. So I was proud of him because he out bullied the bully. But people that had a problem with the early stoppage make me go, hmm, because yeah, it was stopped maybe a few seconds too soon, but Connor Ben was not coming back from that fight. He was done. He was out on his feet. So if you're concerned about protecting the safety of the fighters, I think it was handled well. And hope you enjoyed the fights over the weekend. And let me ask Dan Byer only because he's much more of a college football guy than I am. But I watched every down of that Texas Ohio State game.
I was at my buddy Jason's on Saturday, his kids birthday party, all the, all the dads and some of the moms were gathering around watching when they were down by less than two tuts. I said, you know, this, I felt so destined for like, all right, Texas gets the ball back. They'll be down by less than a school less than a tuts. And they could do this. But you're not giving arch many credits. I like you have some miraculous performance. So DB who gets the who gets the credit? You know, you're the wrong guy to ask this. You know what my look? Yes. I know you're on the guy, but who do you? What do you get the credit to? Is it just like not to high school? I'll tell you that much. Yeah, they know they they had about seven plays that they could have made that would have sealed the deal. They could have heard some four pounds. I felt that Texas actually abandoned the run at some point. They probably could have gotten more at that point. But when you're up 23 to three, you have to do a lot wrong to a lot of the other team. Yeah, I'm not trying to rub it in. Maybe I'm just saying like I know watching that game. I felt like it wasn't like Texas was like, man, could you believe that down the stretch performance by blank? I was like, it seemed like more. They just kept crawling back in with.
The place they had two four pounds they made that were really that were gutsy calls by Sark. Rich, you've been chirping pretty loud all day about. So yeah, don't worry, David. He's buying you lunch this week. Wait, Dan's involved. So it's lunch. Why would I wait? Why wouldn't I? I know you guys do things as a force. I'm like, trust me. I know I'm the. No, you're in. Hey, lunch for the next 14 weeks. Awesome. Hey, it's Kavino and Rich. And I think we all got that one shirt or pair of pants that somehow ends up getting worn way more than we ever planned. You throw it on to run some errands, wear it out to dinner, pack it for a trip. And before long, you realize it's become your go to without even trying.
