I'm your favorite unk, Shannon Sharp. He's your favorite, number 85, Chad Ochocinco-Johnson. And let's jump right into it. The Niners, again, win another regular season game.

They look unstoppable. Brock Purdy still has not lost a regular season game as a 49er starter. And he's now third all-time consecutive wins to start a career trailing Big Ben, who's number one with 15. What was your takeaway? What did you like about the Giants tonight? I mean, excuse me, the 49ers tonight. Listen, the 49ers did everything they were supposed to do.

There's a reason they played. They've lost home games. They've lost one home game out of the last 15, and the last loss was in 2022 to the Kansas City Chiefs. Week seven. Why? Brock Purdy playing well. McCaffrey playing well.

They moving McCaffrey. He in the slot. He catching balls all the way on the outside. Minus Brandon Aiyuk. The offense didn't miss a beat. Debo Samuels? I don't know what he had to eat. I don't know what he had to eat for breakfast this morning,

but whatever it is he had to eat, he need to keep on eating it. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. But let me tell you what upsets me. Let me tell you what upsets me. Saquon Barkley is out. The Giants know you got to come in with a game plan to fill the void of the production that Saquon would have for you.

What do they come out and do? What do they come out and do? What do they come out and do? Try to prove Daniel Jones is the guy? A $40 million quarterback? No. I saw multiple times from quarter one to quarter three on third down and a few second downs, the 49ers

defense play man-to-man across the board. And nobody could get open. That's a sign of disrespect to that get open. That's a sign of disrespect to that receiver room. It's a sign of disrespect. The coaching staff knows you need a little bit more creativity.

If you don't have anybody that can win in one-on-one situations, condense the formation. Fourth, the DBs have to back up. If anything, put people in motion. I ain't backing up against nobody I know can't get open against press coverage. You don't have a choice. That's why I said condense the formations.

Put people in motion. Create ways for them to get open. The offensive coordinator, I don't even know who his name is, but you have to understand your offensive players' strengths and their weaknesses. If you know they can't off the muscle, get open and help your team win.

What are you doing? What are you doing? You have Jalen Hyatt. Jalen Hyatt is a speedster. Jalen Hyatt is a game changing player. Every time I see Jalen come in the game, all he doing is going deep. What are we doing? Pass. Passes to Darren Waller. Darren Waller is a ball player. He is a ball player. You paid him. You brought him over there for a reason. Ball's too high.

Ball's too low. Putting Darren Waller on the outside. You know, everything is so predictable. It's so predictable. Waller going to the Giants was out of his control for the simple fact that he was traded there. But I don't believe he would have gone in free agency because he would have learned his lesson from Evan Ingram. Look at Evan Ingram and the Giants. Look at Evan Ingram and Jacksonville. Man, balling.

You see the difference? Yeah. So that's the situation. I agree with you. The fact of the matter is that the Giants' offense is predicated on Saquon Barkley being able to run the football effectively. Right. Look, I understand that you paid Daniel Jones because you felt you had to out of necessity. You didn't have a choice.

But if you think Daniel Jones is going to lead you somewhere without Saquon, you're fooling yourself. You're fooling yourself. They knew that from the beginning. on self you're fooling yourself they knew that from the beginning when Saquon went down last week the game plan should have been offensively how can we fill the void and fulfill the production that Saquon would give us we have to make Daniel Jones job easy because leaving it in his hands to be a quarterback and sit back there and do what he needs to do what both are coming off the edge and the rest of that 49er defense playing well, ain't gonna happen.

Dude, I wanted to cry and I'm not trying to be funny. I know I play around a lot, but if I felt bad, the fact that the 49ers had the nerve on third down almost every down until it got to the fourth quarter, they played man to man with one

safety in the middle of the field and said, let me see you get open. Let me see you get open. Like, that hurt me. Ocho, but you know now, when you got Bosa on one side, you got Hargrove, you got Armstead, you got Kinlo, you got guys that can get after your quarterback. It's kind of the Dallas principle.

You're like, hey, I'm not going to allow you to have no zone. Get open. Because I already know you ain't got but about 2.5 seconds to get up off that ball. Because Bucs are going to get home. One of them guys is going to get home. That's all you need in man-to-man though, Shannon. In man-to-man, you just need 2.5 seconds. Stick release.

Get up out of there. Dip a shoulder. Run. Stack him. And just do something. Give your quarterback, give your offense a chance. I'm looking at it like this here. My former coach in Denver, Mike Shanahan,

said if you can't beat man coverage, there's two jobs for you. Coaching or selling cars. My staff is Phil, so I ain't hiring. So I don't know John. He used to ask John, you hiring? Because John owned car dealership. So that's the only two choices. You either coaching or you're selling cars.

You've got to be able to beat press coverage. You've got to be able to beat man coverage. If you can't beat man coverage in the NFL, you cannot play receiver in the NFL. But think about this. Think about this. You know your players' strengths and your weaknesses. If you know you don't have anybody in that receiver room, you know, and no disrespect to them.

So you say stack them or put them in a bunch formation to give them something. Stack them, put them in a bunch, put somebody in motion, create ways to help them get open. Free them up. Find ways to do it, especially on third down. You just leaving them out there to dry knowing that this is not their strength.

This is not what they do. That's not what they do. Then you put Darren Waller, you put Darren Waller out, out wide, a tight end. You can't, that's not what they do. Then you put Darren Waller out wide. A tight end that... Yeah, you can't get him a skater out of there. A tight end that goes out wide, he going one place. He coming in. He coming in. All the safety there was just saddle man

just drove right on it. Drove right on the slam. Come on, man. Then the crossing route. The crossing route on third down. Third and 12. We paying you $40 million, Daniel Jones. We paying you $40 million. Darren Waller running the crossing route, the crossing route on third now, third and 12. We paying you $40 million, Daniel Jones. We paying you $40 million. Darren Waller running the crossing route full speed. You throw it on his back, shoulder, and high.

Come on, man. Then I'm looking at Twitter. I'm looking at Twitter. Oh, he should have caught that. Man, what you talking about? He going full speed the opposite way. Hold on, Ocho. But you talking about Twitter.

You talking about people that's never caught the football for in high school or for a living I said do you understand how hard it is to be running in one direction turn try to slow down open your hips up you gotta open your hips get your body around now mind you even if you do that your momentum is still going the opposite direction in which the ball is being thrown yeah now it from somebody, two people that caught over I caught over 800 balls, you caught over 700 balls. So you're talking to two guys that caught over 1,500 footballs.

I think you and I know a little something about catching a football. A little something. A little something. Occasionally, I was able to be running full speed and able to open my hips and get my hips around and get my head around or hands around and catch it. But you're not going to make a steady die out of that.

I don't care who you are. I don't care how great a receiver you are. You're not going to make a steady die out of that. Yeah, especially when you're momentum. I mean, full speed is third down for one. It's third down. So, you know, you haul and tail the big man and get away from that dude and the ball being behind you just a tad bit.

It throws everything off. And I'm not asking you to put the ball between the eight and the four every snap. I'm saying, you know, hey, you getting pressure, guys at your feet, guys flying around your head. You probably had to get outside the pocket and make a throw. But damn, at least give me an opportunity. Help me out a little bit.

Christian McCaffrey scored a touchdown in 12 straight games. I thought that that was one of, that was the biggest trade of last year during the season. I thought it was a great situation

knowing Kyle, knowing that offense, knowing what Christian McCaffrey is, his ability to run between the tackles, to run outside.

You can throw him the ball out of the backfield. You can line him up in the slot. You can put him out wide. He can run the slow-go route. He's a utility. The funny thing about it is you talk about him being a Swiss Army knife

and a utility. Everything you just named that he can do, he did tonight. Every last one. He caught one from the slot. He caught one from outside. He caught him out the backfield. He ran off tackle. Man, he did everything, and there was no answer for him.

There was no answer for him. There was no answer for him. And then because the running game was going so well, they could do whatever they want in the passing game. And the fact that they put up, what, 30-plus tonight? They put up 30-plus tonight, right? No Brandon Ayuk. No Brandon Ayuk. So what happened when he comes back?

What's the answer? The answer is, look, in order to play in this office, in the West Coast office, you need receivers that are great run after the catch because a lot of the stuff that you catch are going to be at or near the line of scrimmage. If you look at Debo, how many smoke screens, jailbreak screens do they throw him? How many smoke screens and jailbreak screens do they throw C-Mac? IU when he's in there.

They do a lot of their damage. You have to be able to be physical because one thing you got to do in the West Coast, you got to block. If you're not going to block, you're not going to play for Kyle Shanahan because I was coached by his dad and he's going to tell you, you ain't blocking, we ain't throwing no passes to you. So you got to be

able to be physical and you catch a lot of able to be physical. And you catch a lot of short routes in traffic. If you see, Debo took some shots. He didn't catch the ball, but he caught a slant route. I saw you two talk about, man, I wish I could catch me. I wish I could play right now and catch a slant because I want some of Fred Warner. No, you don't. I would have gave him that

business. I would have gave Fred. Man, listen, me and Fred, we weigh the same. We weigh the same. We weigh exactly the same. Well, I'm 230 right now. What did you talk about, man? Don't play no... Listen, Shannon, don't play at my top. Don't play at my top. You're 175. 175 with four bricks in your pocket. I'm too... No, okay. I'm just playing. I'm 215 right now. You ain't 215. You ain't never been 215 in your life. Oh my God, man. Listen, if anything... You've never been

over 200 pounds in your life. What did you talk about? I'm 215 right now. I just weighed myself two days ago on the scale. How you going to tell me at Publix?

The scale in Publix. If I see... If you ever get to 215, I'm calling the doctor immediately. Something wrong with you. But what? I work hard. I work hard to get...

Listen now on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. It was December 2019 when the story blew up. In Green Bay, Wisconsin,

former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation. KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play. A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian, now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest. I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite. I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning in a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron and the consequences for everyone involved. You mix homesteading with guns and church and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked. Voila! You got straight away.

I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible. Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Matter of fact, and this is another thing about the 49ers game. The 49ers ran short routes, intermediate routes, and ain't do nothing deep.

Ain't throw nothing deep. They ain't have to. They ran one route, the Debo. Remember they threw the last touchdown the Debo called. They ready to go routes. Because they throw the last touchdown to Debo. Oh, yeah. Matter of fact, I'm so glad you said that. Adoree Jackson, two times on third down. They tried to get Debo on the slam.

All Adoree did was he positioned himself a full man inside. I already know it's coming. I already know it's coming. So what they did, they waited it out, waited it out until third down. They did it with that sluggo. They blitz, sluggo, boom, overtop, touchdown. And I tweeted it out ahead of time. I know Shanahan must have seen that tweet. That's why they call it that.

Yes. That's why they call it that. Yeah, that's why they call it that. So you want to be offensive coordinator now, huh? Nope. No, sir. But I play Madden, though. I play Madden.

It's all the same. So C-Mac has now scored a touchdown in 12 straight games. The record is 18 straight games by LT. Do you think he'll get to 18? Most definitely. Most definitely. He'll be able to get there because the offense is too efficient. It's too efficient.

There's no way to stop it. I'm trying to think. I don't have their schedule in front of me on who they play, on who they play next, or who they're playing up until the bye week. But what defense is out there that can stop what they're doing? What defense is out there that can do it? Because they got, if you look at all the guys, look at Kittle. Kittle almost had 100 yards receiving.

Debo had 100 yards. As you mentioned, there was no IU. Bell caught a touchdown. Jennings is a tremendous run after the catch. They got Ray-Ray McDonald. He's good run after the catch because he's a punt. McCloud, excuse me. He's tremendous because he's a punt returner.

Anybody that's a punt returner tells you he's good run after the catch because you got to be able to make people miss. So I like them. And then the Giants, Daniel Jones, 1-11 in primetime games. $40 million quarterback. No disrespect to him. Obviously, they were in, I don't want to say a chokehold, but you got to pay your quarterback.

You got to pay your quarterback. But your offense is run through number 26. Yeah. Now you see. Now you see. Everybody knows that they know that yeah they know they're not going anywhere without the ability to run the football whether it's saquon barkley it doesn't matter it's he's not a guy that you could just put the

ball in his hand and said son go win the. There are very few quarterbacks in the National Football League that can, if you, without the, some resemblance of a run game, can win you a game. He's one, he needs to rely heavily. Now, if you let him just run around, yeah, he's got great legs.

He's way above average when it comes to running the football. And keeping, making plays, keeping plays open, extending plays. He's a guy I'd rather have him in the pocket as opposed to outside of the pocket because he can hurt me with his legs. I'm really not worried about him beating me with his arm, especially with no threat of the run game. And those receivers, man, I'm pressing across the board.

I ain't doing nothing but pressing. It's no disrespect to the Giants receivers. I love all them boys. I've watched them. Slayton, Jalen Hyde, I know what he did in college. You know college. Guys are afraid to press in college. Yeah, but I'm just

saying, you have someone with that kind of speed. Move them around. Put them in motion. Create ways for them to get open. There are so many ways for offensive coordinators to be creative. The lack of running game.

Help your quarterback out. Help your receivers out. Help your offense out. Make your job. You complicating everything. Don't complicate it. Simplify it so the offense can be somewhat efficient

because you don't have a running game. Ocho, you know, sometimes OCs get stuck in a way, this is my offense, this is what I do. As opposed to your offense is only as good as the people that you have in it. And the offense should be catered or tailored

to what those people do really, really well. Thank you. Thank you. I mean, they're not, listen, there's not a whole lot of guys that you can say, okay, son, go get open. Yeah.

There's not a whole lot of guys... I can name five of them right now. But you see, ain't none of them on the Giants. Right. That's my thing. So you have to scheme for them. There are some guys

that ain't no scheme. Right. Son, go get open. Go beat that man. Right. And I man. And some... And as you mentioned... Go ahead. As you mentioned, some guys you

got a scheme for. You got to stack a bunch to formation. You got to put them in motion. You got to do all... You got to dress all of it up to try to confuse the defense. And then I can just tell Tyreek or Justin Jefferson or Jamar Chase or some of these other guys. This is Devontae Adams, Keenan Allen. Devontae.

Jamar. I mean, just off the muscle. I call it just getting it off the muscle. There are certain receivers in the NFL that make an offensive coordinator's job easy because I know I can count on him come hell or high water. Every time. Every time. Every time. Yeah, and I need a first and a 15th guy. And you know what happens on the first and the 15th,

them checks come. So I need to be able to depend on him like I depend on the first and the 15th. And look, no disrespect to any of the guys because if you're in the NFL, you're extremely talented. But there's levels to this. No matter what're extremely talented. But there's levels to this. No matter what position that you play, there's levels to it.

And there's tier one, which is the elite. And then there's tier two and three. And then there are guys in the league that, okay, we've got to fill out the roster. But the Giants receivers, that's not good enough. That's not good. Listen, I can't have a bad quarterback and bad receivers. Only one.

You get one. You can have a bad quarterback and top receivers, or you can have, you know, a top quarterback, but you can't have two. You know, I think also I don't want to discredit the DBs or the 49ers. I think they are in the upper echelon as a whole, as an entire unit,

to where it was a little difficult. But I think the Giants will be able to succeed on other defenses. But just tonight, I think they were a little exposed in man-to-man coverage based on the personnel that they were going against. The Giants got a tough schedule. But see, here's the thing. Football is about respect. And if I don't respect you as a player, I'm going to do whatever I want. I mean, I got to be able to feel.

I got to have fear that you're going to run by me. I have to have a healthy fear that you can beat me. I guarantee you, if you ask the 49ers to a man, they didn't respect not one of those Giants receivers because they didn't believe they can beat man coverage. And that's why they sat their ass down right in front of him and said, you can't beat me. The first three quarters, they ain't going to an umbrella and just try to keep everything underneath them until they got

four minutes into the third quarter. I mean, in the fourth quarter, they ain't even care no more. Like, come on, man. Come on, man. That was bad. Look, they get 10 days to possibly uh i think i think sequin said he has a high ankle sprain right so that three weeks could turn into six weeks

could turn into eight weeks right which is i mean considering what y'all think about me as the running back at the running back position i'm not so sure that i'm in a i'm doing everything i possibly can i'm trying to full speed ahead to try to get back and put this extra wear and tear on my body. Y'all have already told me what y'all thought of me. Yeah, basically. Because I see you get a quarterback $40 million, and then after I sign the

franchise tag, I see you give an offensive lineman about $18 to $22 million. So I see where you see the value is. You're saying your left tackle and your quarterback is more valuable to me. Right. But we're going to see how many games you win because now the left, I think the left tackle guy, he got dinged the last game and he was out.

But that just goes to show you, and you and I talked about this, the running, when you have a top-flight running back, there's value in that. In that. I mean, the fact that the owners don't see that you know they're they you think so you think the owners are going to try to listen ocho you like you said if i can buy something of value right that's the thing what do you do with stock you try to buy it at the cheapest price possible right i'm not trying to buy i'm not trying to buy a stock when it's at its highest.

I'm trying to buy at its lowest and get the maximum out of it. So when can I get the maximum out of a running back, Ocho? From the time I get him into my camp, probably the first three years. And then what do they say? Now, all of a sudden,

well, you know what they say. But you don't put 1,000, a thousand twelve hundred touches on that man body right you run him into the you tell me there's no value in him but you try to use him 300 different ways in the course of a season right you're right so there's no value why you give me 300 why you give me 300 touches though i ain't got no value that's crazy i mean the running backs in the tough they're in a tough spot tough position obviously. Obviously, with the game, especially heading toward being a more pass-happy league, they just don't value the position as much

as they did during our era. When I think about the AFC North, Jamal Lewis, Jerome Bettis, Peyton Hillis when he was with Cleveland. You played with Corey Dillon? Yeah, Corey Dillon. It was run first, and we're going to run the ball to establish the pass.

Now it's, man, they're dropping back. They're throwing the ball 65 times. They're throwing the ball 65 times a game. We only had 65 plays. Plays. Back when I was there. Right. It's crazy.

And if you had a top-flag running back, man, your numbers, man, look at all them tight ends. Say, bro, if I got a guy running for 2,000 yards, how many passes do you think you're going to throw a say bro if i gotta grab running for 2 000 yards right how many passes you think you're gonna throw a game if you gotta got through running for 2 000 yards in a season right right right right bad news today for the dallas cowboys trayvon diggs dallas cowboys everybody was starting to feel really good about the cowboys one of the argued one of the best corners in the National Football League goes down with a torn ACL. How big of a blow is this to the Cowboys?

And should they still be considered the favorites to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl? I think to me, Diggs is top five. Diggs is top five. Man to man, a lot of people will probably argue the fact that he gets beat a lot, but he does get a lot of picks. Yeah. Diggs is very, very, very smart.

He liked to jump a lot of stuff. He knows when to gamble. He likes to gamble at the right time. And most of the time, 98% of the time, he guesses right. He guesses right. Him and Gilmore have been a phenomenal tandem the past two weeks. They've obviously played together. I think it's a blow. I think it's a blow, think it's a blow but i still think they are the favorites because they're from four they're from five they're relentless relentless mckay's still there yeah so that this is as special as digs is they can plug somebody else in it won't be digs ain't gonna be nothing like trayvon no they can still find somebody and plug them in that can play and be efficient

because of that front line and the pressure that Makai and the rest of the boys is going to put on. Yeah. You look at Micah, you look at D-Law

or Diggy Zua, you look at Williams, you look at Fowler, they got a NASCAR package where they can run six, seven, eight different guys, rotation guys. Nobody is fatigued.

Right. And so they can just keep running them in and out. And Micah is relentless. And basically he's handing in the dirt, even though a lot of times he stands up. He's relentless in his rush. It's going to be very interesting who defensive player of the year is going to be because T.J. Watt is not taking a backseat to anyone.

He's jumping off the ball also. So that is great. Remember last year, they said the same thing when the corner on the opposite side went down to Trayvon Diggins. And they're not going to miss a beat. Oh, yes, they did, because they just singled that guy out, and they just threw the ball up to him. And he either got beat or he P.I.

Yeah, P.I., one or the other. I just feel bad. Yeah, P.I. One or the other. I just, I mean, I'm not... I just feel bad. I feel bad. And I'm glad. I'll tell you what I am glad. I'm glad he got his money. He got his money.

Yeah, he did. He got his money. Yeah, he did. He'll be able to come back. He'll be able to come back from that. Tredavious White, I think, if I'm not mistaken, towards ACL.

Yeah. Maybe not last season, but the season before that. And Tredavious White was able to come back. And he's playing well. He's playing well again this year. So Trayvon is young. Yeah.

Obviously with technology. And with the way that we have now, I think he'll be fine. He'll be able to come back and pick up right where he left off. Right.

It was December 2019 when the story blew up. In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation. KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play. A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian, now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest. I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite. I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning. In a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron,

and the consequences for everyone involved. You mix homesteading with guns and church, and then a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked. Voila! You got straight away. I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that we liked. Voila! You got straightway. I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible. Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,

or wherever you get your podcasts. Justin Fields believes what's causing him to overthink the game and be robotic is coaching. It happens. Do you like what he said? I like the message, but the delivery was wrong. The delivery. Do you like what he said? I like the message, but the delivery was wrong.

The delivery of the message and what he was trying to portray and get across, it didn't come off right because he didn't know how to say it the right way. Because you make it seem like he's playing bad because of the coaching.

Coaching. What the coaches are doing, for people that are watching and listening, if you played the game, especially at a position as important as quarterback, at times they can overcoach you. And when you overcoach a player,

the first thing they do when they get into a game, they're not playing fast and free. Mentally, you got to be playing fast and free because you ain't got time to be thinking. But if you overcoach, you get in there and you second guess yourself all the time.

You second guess yourself all the time. You second guess yourself all the time instead of just playing and reading and reacting. And that can happen. It can happen. I hope, and I hope that's the case. I hope this isn't a case where Justin Fields is trying to show that I can be a pocket passer.

Because if you think about it, Ocho, what we see from Justin Fields now, we never saw at Ohio State. Right. We didn't see these kind of legs. Right. He was a pocket. Yes, he could throw the ball outside of the pocket,

but most of his plays happened with him throwing the ball from the pocket. So we didn't see this side of Justin Fields. So I hope it's not a case because sometimes guys like, I'm going to show you. Nah, win the game. Show me later.

I don't need you to show me. You ain't got to prove it to me. Here's the thing about it, is he can be a pocket passer because he has a great repertoire of weapons to throw to. They just got DJ Moore. I don't know about a repertoire.

I don't know. Claypool ain't. Chase Claypool. All Chase need, a little confidence. Just a little confidence. Give him the ball. Get him going. That's it.

If he can touch the ball early, I'm telling you, you got to keep the players in the game. Boy, Chase can play, man. I'm telling you. Ocho, let me ask you a question. What if one of your teammates, one of your wide receiver teammates Yeah.

said, we know, we expect more out of Ocho. Ocho knows we expect more out of him. How would you have felt if one of your teammates had said that about you? If that's what DJ Moore said,

they had a talk with this man. You tell me you making 10, 12, 13 million dollars a year and I got to give you a pep talk? Sometimes that's all you need. Sometimes all you need is a little push, a little pick me up. And it got to come from people that's closest to you. That's like me being your friend. That's like me being your friend that's like me being your friend that's that's the problem when you have an entourage let me finish and you have an entourage and you got a bunch of yes men around you you need somebody that gonna tell you the truth instead of being yeah you doing okay no dj moore needed to say what he said

all chase claypool need is a little confidence just a little bit because you know what happened when you get a little bit of confidence you continue to build on that allpool need is a little confidence, just a little bit. Because you know what happens when you get a little bit of confidence? You continue to build on that. All you need is a little foundation and something to build off of. I guarantee you he going to be all right. Let him touch the ball early and let him work. I mean, he should have. I mean, didn't you get an indication Pittsburgh moved on from you? Well, there was a reason.

I think that was more so internal. It had nothing to do with his actual play he's a good yes you gotta get him the ball in order for him to produce you can't produce without the ball you can't produce without the ball oh joe justin field has chase play pool darnel mooney and dj moore that is enough to get jiggy my grandma could play quarterback for the Bears and get jiggy with the boys. I'm telling you, man. Listen to me. I got faith in them. I get that, but here's

the thing. Sometimes, you know, you as a quarterback, you try to be something that you're not ready to be just yet. And you try to prove to the world that I can be a pocket passer. You know, when everybody used to want to be Peyton Manning, everybody wanted to be Tom Brady or Drew Brees to stand there.

But now these linemen have gotten so big, so fast, so strong, you need mobility. You need to be able to not only throw the ball from the pocket, but you need to be able to escape the pocket, throw on the move, and get first downs. Well, we know his legs are more than adequate. Right. But he has to be a better throw of the move, and get first downs. Well, we know his legs are more than adequate. Right. But he has to be a better throw of the football.

As a quarterback, you're not going to run a team to a championship. This isn't 80s football. This isn't 90s college football where, you know, Oklahoma and Nebraska had those running quarterbacks and they could run you to a national championship. Those days are over. But I have a question, though. I have a question. Justin Field last year showed us

he can use his legs and extend play. He showed us he can do that. He showed you he could get the number one overall draft pick. Do you realize the Chicago Bears had the number one overall draft pick with Justin Field showing you what he

could do with those legs yeah yes okay so what you're telling me at ohio state it looked good at ohio state he showed you can also be a pocket passer you don't want to be a run quarterback first if you can if you know you can throw from the pocket then do just that unless you unless you have to run unless you have to run the first thing was the first thing you're hitting with he's not a pocket passer oh all he wants to do is run with the ball why show him you can do both because if you can do both you if you can be a dual threat it makes it that much more difficult for all defensive coordinators to deal with you to think about it we didn't't know Patrick Mahomes could run until

the playoffs when he took off against, remember he had those runs against Tennessee and he had to run against Houston. People didn't even know Patrick, I didn't know Patrick Mahomes could run like that. And then all of a sudden, they're like, hold on. We got to respect this man's leg. And last year, it was that run at the

end, remember that run against Philly in the Super Bowl. He took off for 25 yards, Ocho. right up the middle so right up the middle so now we're starting to see but what people fear most is this yes arm now you got to respect his legs and so i think that's the next step for justin fields is to make people respect his leg but fear his arm. Right now they fear his leg and they have little to zero respect for his arm. I think it's going to come. Again, it's only week two. It's only week two, but I understand his frustrations, especially with the comments that he made. Again, the message wasn't portrayed. It wasn't delivered the right way. So a lot of people that are casual and just football fans from the outside watching

probably thought it was like pointing fingers or saying or taking jabs at his coaches, but that's not what he was doing. The simple fact of the matter is, let's simplify things. You don't have to complicate everything. You don't have to complicate and overcoach. That's all it is. And I think once he's playing freely

and he's playing freely, you're at your best when you're playing free and you're not thinking because you don't got time to think. You don't got time to think. Ocho, if DJ Moore says that, if a linebacker says that, you know, as a quarterback, everything you say gets split apart, dissected, and regurgitated. So basically, you've got to be buttoned up to the T. Right. Everything. I mean, if you just give out the – that's the thing.

Look it. I'm sure there's a lot of times Tom Brady didn't believe anything that he was telling, but he understood the ramifications of what he said. Yeah. Peyton Manning or Drew Brees or some of these other quarterbacks. You got to understand, when you play the quarterback position, not only must you be a good quarterback, you must be a politician. Yeah.

Because you got to lie. All the answers. All the answers politically correct. Yeah. All of them. You got to lie. Oh, I'm going to do all of this. I'm going to make sure everybody, all the unemployment,

I'm going to fix all the roads and bridges. And then when you get off, you don't do none of that. At all. So as a quarterback, oh, man, we got the best coaches. We got 53 of the best. Man, them coaches we got right now, they shouldn't be in high school coaching. But you think that, but you don't say that.

You don't say it. Because everything that you get said gets magnified because of the position that you play. But there's one thing that can cure all that. One thing that can cure everything they said, a W. Win.

Yeah, you got a W. Everything, a W. Everything is only magnified because they losing. That's it. Ocho. That's it. Chicago ain't won a whole lot of games in a while, man.

Yeah. Yeah, but they can turn around. You know why they can turn around? Because they got Justin Fields. They picked him high for a reason. They picked him high for a reason. Again, I'm going back to what I said about the Giants. Understand your players' strengths and your players' weaknesses.

The coaches, the coaching staff, the head coach, they understand Justin Fields' strengths because he showed you what he can do in college. So why not take what he's doing in college and just implement it in today's, instead of just saying, okay, this is my offense,

we're going to run my offense. Instead of predicating the offense on what he does well. It's really easy. There's no need to complicate everything. True. He definitely needs to do some of that. They need to come up with a scheme.

But you know the thing is, we've gotten away from what the Bears, when you think of the Chicago Bears, what do you think about? Defense. Defense. Defense. They got nothing. They got no defense. They got no defense, O'Jones.

That's not their identity. That ain't their identity. Not no more. This ain't 85. The middle linebacker was started by them. Bill George and Dick Buckus and Mike Singletary. Ryan Malacca, yeah. Yeah, and all the defensive line.

I mean, you know, Richard Dent and McMichael and Dan Hampton and all those guys. William Perry. Yeah, you think of defense. The monsters of the midway. Yeah. And now they're defense. Cream puffs all.

And listen, matter of fact, if you take that 85, that 85-bit defense, and you put them out there with them running gun boys and them RPO boys in today's game, man, they'll be running their heads and be spinning. Their heads will be spinning. It's too much. Too much. But here's the thing, though. They're not going to let you play football like that. Because all they... See,

the thing back then, it was about intimidation. Oh, yeah. See, football at its premise is about intimidation. Right. It's about trying to break another man's will. Yeah. Yeah. All I need, you run one slant. And Mike Singletary was trying to make sure that when you ran that slant and Mike Singletary was trying to make sure

that when you ran that slant in the first quarter your kids felt it you refused to do it again in the third and fourth quarter but you can't do that no more that's the thing you can't intimidate nobody no more you can't so that's why think about it

it used to be a badge of honor to run a slant route every Bill, Jerry and Harry will run a three-step slant. Boy, it used to... They wouldn't let you run. Listen. Listen, you got to keep your head... You had to keep your head on the swivel back then.

Can you imagine Steve Atwater or Ronnie Lott or Rodney Harrison? Man. Oh, man. Wait a minute, hold on. I got another one. Remember Donovan Darius? Yeah. Yes.

Man, he coming to the party. He coming downhill to the party. I don't want no part of that. I don't want no part of that. Uh-uh. So they've taken that intimidation factor. So, you know, yeah. I mean, guys running there and casting

slant, they jump up and... Getting pretty, doing the first down. Yeah. Yeah, alright. Yeah, alright. Them guys be doing none of that. Yes. Because you might do first down, but you had to adjust your... You had to adjust your... Pull the grass up out your face mask. You're exactly right. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. The game, Colorado on the road versus Oregon. The Ducks, the number two scoring offense led by Bo Nix. What's your expectation for the Buffaloes on the number 10 team in the country, Colorado ranked number 19? Yeah. What are your expectations? It's going to be a big test. It's going to be a big test.

It's going to be a big test for Prime. It's going to be a big test for the offense. It's going to be a big test for that defense. I'm like Prime. I believe. Right. I believe. I believe.

I don't know what's going to happen. I'm not sure what the game plan is going to be. The skill position on both sides of the ball, whether it's Oregon or whether it's Colorado, the skill positions are equal on both sides of the ball, even though Travis Hunter is out. I think the difference in the game would probably be the interior. It would probably be the interior. The O-line and D-line is what separates the two. Other than that, I'm hoping for a good game. I'm hoping for a close game. I'm not sure how long that Colorado Buffalo's defense can keep Bo Nix and that offense in check and how well Shador and Horn and those fellas can continue to score

and keep up with the high-octane offense that the Ducks do have. But I'm really looking forward to a great game. And again, because I love Prime and everything that he's doing and what he's been able to do in such a short amount of time in Colorado with so many people doubting him, I'm pulling for them boys to pull off on what I consider an upset. Well, everybody would consider upset being that I'm sure the Ducks are favored. They're 21-point dogs.

Okay. So it'll be a huge upset. Maybe the upseason thus far. Yeah. Yeah, I agree. I think the thing is for Colorado, they're going to have to score points. Yeah. I don't think – I don't know if their defense will see,

but I think they're going to have – because we saw them give up 42. We saw them give up, what, 30-plus last week. So the defense is not quite what coach prime would expect and so i think shador and that offense is going to probably need to score somewhere probably 35 42 points yeah in order to have a chance to win this game right or at least the the being contention to make it some close towards the end. The fact that Colorado State put up, what, 35? Something like that. And obviously

the Ducks offense is much more high power than they are. No disrespect to Colorado State, but I mean, it's facts. It's just what it is. And Bo Nick's going to drop back. He's going to sling it. He's going to run when he need to run

and he's another dude yeah he's another quarterback that's extremely dangerous yes he's he's a little he's more athletic than you think because remember he was a what a two year start at auburn maybe a three year start at auburn i think he uh stayed an extra year because of covid right but he has he he But he's very, very athletic. Ocho, man, did you see your boy go viral last night? Who that? Me. Yeah, yeah.

Matter of fact, not only, listen, not only did you go viral, you really, you think you slick. Because I'm going to tell you, I'm going to tell you, man, don't play on my top. You ain't slick. I know what you're doing. I know. Listen, that, man, don't play on my top. You ain't slick. I know what you're doing. I know. Listen, that little game you and Ms. Gomez played, you think you slick.

That shit. Hey, you think you slick. Hey, I know what you're trying to do. I know what you're trying to do. You valet, right? Were you valet in LA? I did. Do you have to call and tell them to bring your card?

Or you just hand your ticket once you get outside? At some places you can call and they'll have your, when you come out, they'll have your car ready. But that wasn't a place like that last night. Okay. So I'm going to tell you what happened. I'm going to tell you what happened. You and Ms. Gomez was on a date and you left a little earlier and the whole plan is, okay, I'm going to leave first. And then when're ready and you feel I've already left and I've got my car, then you come on out after me so nobody knows what's going on. So, thank you Slick. Listen, I was trying to hook you up

with somebody and you ain't even tell me you and Selena Gomez had something going. Man, Selena Gomez young enough to be my daughter. Or damn near my granddaughter, man. Wait, I don't, listen, listen. My grandma told me, my grandma told me, I'll never forget when I was in kindergarten

and I was trying to talk to this girl that was in the third grade. My grandma told me, baby, go for what you know, because age is nothing but a number. Well, I got to, I got to. Age is nothing but a number. I got too many numbers. I got too many numbers in my age for some Selena Gobert. And trust me, you ain't got a lot of me. I already know the numbers. I got too many numbers in my age for Selena Gomez.

And trust me. You ain't got a lot of me. I already know the plays. I already know the plays. It's just not checkers. What you going to do? You going to deny to me? You don't have a lot of me. I can see it in your face.

I see it in your eyes. Let me tell you how I would have done it if I was out with a celebrity. I'd have got my car and rolled up. Ma'am, did you request an Uber? And told her, get in the back.

You know what I'm saying? And then we get down the road. She hopped in the front. That's how I played it off. You see how I did that, Ochoa? You see how I did that? I was slick with it. I was slick with it. You know, you can't be slick to a can of oil. I was slick. I hear you, but you ain't fooling me.

I know you're trying to laugh it off. You're trying to give me different analogies. No, real talk. But I know the play. Promise God. I didn't, because I was talking to the proper, I didn't know, I saw when I got there, I saw like one or two proper routes.

But, you know, everything was cool. And then, so, I'm thinking, honest to goodness, I think she saw me leave and then her team told her, say, well, this will be our opportunity because they'll probably get him. Right. And so I was talking.

Right. And then when she came out behind me, I looked. Right. But I really didn't, I really, I know who she is, but I really didn't like, I didn't really, you know, really, honestly. Yeah. Had I, if I'd known it was her. You would have got a picture.

I said, ma'am. You got a picture. You got a picture., I'd have said, ma'am, I wouldn't have when I would have. I'd say, excuse me, ma'am, can I take a picture with you? Right, right, right, right. I sure would. I'd have asked her as humbly as I possibly could and got it, too. You a fan of Selena Gomez? I don't really know what she does.

It was December 2019 when the story blew up. In Green Bay, Wisconsin, former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation. KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play.

A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian, now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest. I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite. I got swept up in Kabir's journey. But this was only the beginning in a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron, and the consequences for everyone involved. You mix homesteading with guns and church and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked. Voila! You got straight away. I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible. Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I have a question.

I have a question. Can you hear me? Yes. You got a house, right? You got a house, right? I got two of them. Why? Okay, listen to me.

You know what? You got a house, but you ain't got a home. Because your house ain't going to never be a home unless you got a woman to put a touch on it. Because that's what you need. I'm telling you, everything in your life will not be fulfilled until you get a woman in your life. Listen to me. Until she puts you at your home. You got purpose, right?

You got a purpose in life, right? God created Adam and when God created Adam, there was an Eve, right? Listen to me. Stay with me now. Let me preach now. Who bit the apple? Adam did.

You need to know what you meant to say is that you're going to stop saying that ASAP. You didn't mean ASAP is your cousin. You meant you were going to stop telling me that ASAP. Nah. You hear my smoke detector?

I'm going to tell you. That's a black household. We should be used to that. I'm used to it. You know, my grandfather said, boy, be as cheap as you want to, but don't be cheap to yourself. I ain't going to be cheap to me.

I'm going to be cheap to myself. I am. And I'm going to bless others. Matter of fact, I want you to start tipping the way I I am and I'm going to bless others. Matter of fact, I want you to start tipping the way I do. I promise you. I promise you. I promise you.

Do me a favor. I spend most of my money on other people. And I can assure you that. Now, I don't know a whole lot, but I know that's factual. Okay, I like that. I like that. I want you to do me a favor.

What? The month of October, every time you eat out, I want you to do me a favor. What? The month of October, every time you eat out, I want you to tip the same way I do at restaurants. I want you to give every waiter and server, regardless of service,

tip them $1,000 every time. Man, you out your mind. I want you... If you... Because I go out, that's a private jet flight from here to LA or anything? No, no, no, no, no, no.

Don't do that, don't do that. You just said you give back. And obviously the service industry, the service industry private jet flight from here to Atlanta. No, no, no, no, no, no. Don't do that. Don't do that. You just said you get back. And obviously the service industry, the service industry doesn't make a livable wage. That's a problem with America right now. So I need you to get on, to get on the train with me

every time you eat out in one of these nice establishments or wherever you go, tip a thousand dollars every time. I need you to promise me, promise me you'll do that. I tip according to service. No, don't do that. Let me ask you a question. Let me tell I need you to promise me. I tip according to service. No, don't do that.

Let me ask you a question. Let me tell you why you should quit. Let me ask you a question. Okay, I will hear you. If you was catching 40 passes a year for 500 yards, if the Bengals going to pay you the same, if you catching 100 balls

for 1,400 yards, they base your pay on production, right? I don't like that analogy. So, I'm going to base their tip on service. I don't like that analogy. Let me give it to you a little further. Let me tell you why I tip 1,000, 1K everywhere I go no matter what

regardless of service. Eight being people in the world. So, if you work in the service industry, understand the number of personalities you got to deal with. The number of egos rude people people that feel that you should be at their beck and call just then people sending food back just you got to do serving people in the service you got you have to deal with so much

i just want to come in and make sure your day no you don't i'm not giving you no thousand dollars when i order a burger medium with meat and bun and fries and ginger ale. Yes, you can. I'm not tipping no $1,000 for no $40 meal. Yes, you can. If you can fly private, you can tip $1,000 every time.

And you will. Promise me the month of October you'll do it. Please, I'm asking you. I'm begging you. Ocho. Come on, moneybags. I can. Can is the ability to do something. You're absolutely right. I can, but I will not. I'm asking you, please, as my brother. And the answer is no.

As my brother. Regardless of their service. No. No. As a matter of fact, I'm filing paper tomorrow to end our brothership. You're really getting out of this.

I would do, I do what I normally do. I normally do. I normally do 40 to 45%. Okay. Okay. Okay. I like it. I like it.

I mean, I mean, it's just, I just, I've always wanted to give back. I mean, if it's somebody, if it's somebody I know, I do. If it's somebody I know, they do. If it's somebody I know, they're regular, but they know me. As soon as I sit down, they're bringing me to ginger ale. Mr. Sharp, the normal?

Right. Oh, if you tell me the normal, oh, you good. You already know. Whatever the meal costs, I'm going to double or triple what the meal costs. Listen, this is just something
