So get on the ball, guys.
Ochoa, as we talked about earlier, the Jets beat the Texans 21-13.
The New York overcame several inflicted mistakes to snap a five-game losing streak,
handed the Houston Texans their second loss in three games.
Aaron Rodgers threw three touchdown passes at the Jets' end of their losing streak
at five games.
In the first half, Jets' Malachi Corley dropped the ball before crossing the end line.
Dumb, dumb.
That would have been a 19-yard rush touchdown.
And the ball touched back because it rolled out of the end zone.
J.J. Watt had this to say on Aaron Rodgers.
Is this a joke? He was talking about him.
Aaron was talking about he's drinking cayenne pepper in water.
I think that's what he was.
That's what he was.
Cayenne pepper and water.
And J.J. is like, basically, bro, we keep talking about y'all.
And you're talking about cayenne pepper and water.
Score some touchdowns.
Win some games.
Because this is what you're in New York for.
And to make matters worse for the Texans,
they lost this game, which is their second in three weeks, Ocho.
They also learned that Stephon Diggs suffers a season-ending ACL injury.
So Stephon Diggs is gone.
Remember, they've been without Nico Collins for like the last three weeks.
Tank Dale stepped up big tonight, but it wasn't enough.
CJ hadn't been playing well, Ocho.
He hasn't been playing well.
There's no way around it.
And the offensive line is getting killed.
But tonight, he was 11 of 30, 191 yards,
eight sacks for 56 total yards.
Go ahead.
So, okay, CJ not playing well, right?
Yes.
The O-line is abysmal.
They're horrible.
They're playing really bad.
Not only is the O-line horrible, you lose digs.
Nico Cullen is out.
There's nothing wrong with Robert Woods.
There's nothing wrong with Macy.
There's nothing wrong with Tank Dale.
Tank Dale had a good night.
I think he had six or seven eight catches for $126 a night.
But it's different when you don't have them horses but it's different when you don't have them horses
it's different we don't have them horses it's different and then the old line's not playing
well there's really nobody you can actually count on to get open for you there's no security blanket
so this is what you get tonight this is what you get tonight and then on the opposite side
finally the jets show some promise finally aaron rogers sold some promise yes late in the game
because the first half was horrible boy yeah he had 32 passing yards first half was a doozy from
both sides of the ball you know goddamn stroud sack seven eight times eight aaron rogers missing
missing missing shots easy shots that him and davante normally hit on yeah but davante dropped
one he had he had him against the uhingley Jr. He dropped that one.
That was just a drop.
Yeah, he did drop that one.
But I think in order for them
to get on the same pace,
they got to be able to hit shots
like they hit tonight
and get themselves into a rhythm.
And Aaron Rodgers does this.
He plays bad, plays bad,
plays bad, plays bad.
And then all of a sudden,
he'll go into a spurt.
We look like, oh, there's the magic.
There's what we've been
waiting for from you. This is what it should look look like this is what we have to look forward to
and i don't know who they play next week so it's only two only two things can happen either they're
going to continue to get better and improve offensively or they're going to regress and go
back to what we saw the previous five weeks yeah i think the thing is for me ocho when i look at cj
and knowing the offensive line isn't playing well
you can't make every play. You
see he's spinning out, trying to spin out
and he's losing yards, getting sacked.
It's okay to throw the ball away
in the direction of you have a receiver.
Because one time you got
sacked and you end up pushing your kicker back
and he missed the field goal. Now, I'm
not so sure that four yards that he lost on the sack
would have helped because hell, when he left the kicker's foot, hell, I could tell it was off.
So unless they expand the goal post to be the width of the end zone,
that kick wasn't going to be any good anyway.
But he just has to understand, Ocho, knowing that,
and maybe they have to shorten up some of these routes.
My offensive line isn't good right now.
I don't know if it's injuries or they're just playing bad,
but you got to shorten up these routes because you're not going to have time
to let something develop down the field playing behind this offensive line.
Go ahead.
And not only that, I'm not sure the offensive coordinator is.
The offensive coordinator is for the Houston Texans,
but without Nico Collins, without Stephon Diggs, I'm thinking the whole three-step,
five-step drop, the play-action passes, you need to eliminate that from
the playbook until you can figure out what you want to do.
Condense the splits, put people in motion, find ways to get them,
find ways to scheme them open because you don't have those horses.
You don't have your Stephon Diggs, You don't have your Nico Collins. You do
have Ting Dale. Now, I'm not saying
nothing is wrong. There's nothing wrong with Robert Woods
or Meaty,
but you got to be a little bit more creative
to help your quarterback out.
It shouldn't look like that.
Tonight, it shouldn't look like that.
The CJ Shroud we saw last
year, it shouldn't
regress to this point,
and we shouldn't be able to use injuries for it.
So what the offensive coordinator has to do, he has to manipulate the offense
so CJ Stroud can still be efficient.
You've got to change some things up.
If your personnel is different on the outside of the receiving position,
then you have to do something different.
You've got to play to their strengths on what they do well.
Don't try to run the same offense. We don't have an ego Collins
out there. You don't have a step on digs.
You got to change it up
when they got when
the Jets hit the
center knowing that the center is protected
and they got I didn't like the play
selection two runs and then a pass
and CJ and CJ was
off because he had met you. Now
I don't know if he felt the pressure or he just missed him
Ocho but he had Mechie on the
whip route and he had
at least the first down and who knows if he makes
the guy miss maybe he has a touchdown
but we know he's beyond
the first down
he's beyond the line to gain
the first down
but that's what happens when you get hit
early and you get hot often,
you start seeing things,
even if it's not there.
And so that's why you try to get to the quarterback early to impact him for
later.
And it definitely showed his head tonight.
And again,
CJ was 11 of 3,491 yards.
He got sacked eight times.
Give this Jeff defense credit.
They got after him tonight.
You know,
you know, it's funny. They ran after him tonight. You know what's funny?
They ran the ball well. Yeah, they were running the ball 36 rushes a buck 87.
They ran the ball real well.
J.J. Taylor had three for 23.
C.J. on scrambles
with eight of 59. And Joe Mixon
was 24 for
a buck. Was 24
for a buck 06.
So, four and a half yards of carry for Mixon.
Like I said, he ran the ball extremely well.
He's played well all year long,
except for that couple of weeks that he missed with that hip drop tackle.
But other than that, I think he's been unbelievable.
He's been one of the bright spots, one of their most consistent players.
Right.
And matter of fact, in the fact that you say that, you know,
Joe being so consistent and playing very well,
I'm still trying to understand why we
let him go out there in Cincinnati.
I think the price,
I think, you know, teams don't want to
play. Because think about it.
You're already taking a pay cut. Yeah, but
true. I agree. Because think about
it. Derrick Henry
took a pay cut because he was
making 12. They took him all the way down
to eight and derrick henry was still giving you great production i mean this is a bark that that
was a bargain for the raven first of all he'd have been a bargain for anybody he'd been a bargain for
anybody eight million dollars because he's derrick henry you know what he's gonna get he's gonna get
to 1200 hell he's at what nine what, what? Eight, 46, 900 now?
So... Yeah.
He actually had 946.
Okay, he had 946.
So you know he's going to get you.
On a bad year, he's going to get you 1,200.
On a great year, he's going to be somewhere 15, 1,600.
An exceptional year, he'll get you 2,000.
That's what he is.
You know that.
And for the most part, he's been fairly doable.
Even the season that he missed,
he had almost 1,000 yards in like nine games.
Yeah.
Young Bull is special, man.
He is.
He's defying things at his age,
and I think he's defying things at his age
specifically because of the team he chose to go to.
Right.
The Jets snap a five-game losing um aaron rogers tosses three touchdown
passes uh hit davante in stride davante got nick came back in the game caught a touchdown i'm sure
he's good feeling good about that he had 11 targets seven catches 91 yard garrett wilson
made two phenomenal catches and sometimes ocho youcho, you know this. When you're struggling, you have to make plays like this
to help your quarterback out and to help your team out.
Everything is not going to be between the numbers.
Everything's not going to be in a catch radius.
So you're going to sometimes, sometimes,
when your offense is struggling,
you have to make an exceptional play.
He made two exceptional plays tonight
that really got the jets going
offensively.
And it seemed to give them a breath of fresh air.
They're like,
okay,
yeah,
we know now we know how to get the ball into the end zone and defensively.
They look and defensively.
Sometimes you have to have games like,
look,
we got to go hunt the quarterback.
Oh,
Joe is really that simple.
Let's,
let's make it as difficult as they possibly can.
Let's hold this team down
and let our offense get going.
And once the Jets offense got going,
they played well, but it
took two exceptional catches from Garrett Wilson
and sometimes
having been in situations like
this, it takes exceptional plays
to get an offense going.
Wait, hold on, hold on.
Now, it doesn't always take exceptional
plays. Sometimes you can chop
the wood. You chop the wood,
chop the wood, chop the wood, chop the wood.
It's okay to run the bases instead
of trying to hit the home run. No, but I'm saying
when you 0-5,
chop the wood and you get it done.
When you're 0-5 straight,
sometimes it just takes an exceptional play to get the
sideline going to get you going as an offensive unit because you're right oh so you know methodically
moving down the field you're like man we've done this before we ain't getting nothing to show for
it now we got a one-hand spectacular catch where he makes a catch on the run because the guy jets
it and he throws it over and he makes a great catch, gets the ball in the end zone.
And then on third and 19, Aaron gave him an opportunity to make a play.
Now he had to make the play, but a lot of times the quarterback
throws the ball out of the end zone.
Now the DB jumped way too soon.
I don't know what the hell he thought.
He must be thinking he had hang time like Jordan.
Held the ball halfway there and he jumped.
And so now he coming down in the ball.
But give Gary Wilson.
Gary Wilson played his tail off tonight.
Made some exceptional catches.
He was short on the third down.
Got it.
Made the guy miss.
Got the third down.
I thought he played well tonight.
I thought Devontae, outside of that drop,
I thought he played it really well tonight.
But Rodgers gave his guys an opportunity tonight to make plays.
Hey, listen. I know they might have lost
the last five and won tonight.
But, there's
a chance Aaron Rodgers can catch fire
tonight. Especially with a game like
tonight. There's a chance he can catch fire. I know
the first quarter, the second
quarter, it was abysmal. I know it was horrible.
In the third quarter, they played in spurts. They looked
good. Fourth quarter, it looked a littlemal. I know it was horrible. In the third quarter, they played in spurts. They looked good. Fourth quarter, it looked a little decent.
If them goddamn
Jets...
No, not even the Jets. If Aaron Rodgers
plays consistent football,
I mean, the AFC East can get
a little interesting.
I don't know, Ocho, if they can
catch Buffalo.
No, I didn't say they can catch Buffalo.
Oh, you're talking about make a playoff bid because you're
going to take 17. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. All they got to do is play consistent.
He can make a little run.
I'm just saying, based on what he has
around him with Brees Hall, Garrett
Wilson, Devontae Adams. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If they get into any kind of rhythm and get some
chemistry and a little confidence,
I'm just saying,
I wouldn't be surprised.
Yeah.
I wouldn't be surprised.
Ocho, the news of the day, Young Thug is going home.
He played.
Hey, that's perfect.
Club Shea Shea.
Club Shea Shea, Young Thug.

I forgot to tell you about that.
I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on Good Company, the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive
world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences
with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.
It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person
discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide.
And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.
Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked
like it might bring down his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
No one was let go.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.
And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm going to ask Attorney General —
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran Contra,
you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago,
but which few of us still remember today.
The things that happened were so bizarre and insane,
I can't begin to tell you.
Please do.
To hear the whole story, listen to bitch anthony richardson in favor 39
year old joe flacco even though richardson is just 22 years of age 10 games was enough
of a sample size to draw the conclusion that the last year number four overall pick
hasn't gotten it done jaylen hurst is a prime example of giving a young quarterback an
opportunity to develop hurt said his development isst is a prime example of giving a young quarterback an opportunity to develop.
Hurst said his development is why teens should be patient with young
quarterbacks.
I think things do take time.
Things take time and everybody has a different approach to going in.
I wasn't supposed to be the guy I am today.
Nobody expected that.
But I took advantage of my opportunities and that's what i encourage everyone
to do regardless i don't i don't like the move i don't care what nobody's saying i don't like the
move it's your number four pick right yeah it's your number four pick now what i think what what
i'm saying is happening i don't like the fact that they're benching him for one he didn't play
a lot of college football he didn't play a lot of college football he didn't play a lot of college football. He didn't play a lot of college football. He didn't get a lot of snaps.
The amount of snaps that needed to be able
to come in and transition into the NFL
and be prepared.
Just being big, strong, fast, and having
an arm is not going to get it done.
It's not going to get it done. So the only way to
improve in the NFL
is with reps. With reps.
With reps. He's the future of the franchise.
He's the number four quarterback.
So the only reason I think they put Flacco in
is to save the season.
Do we have a chance to make a run?
So what we're going to do is be four and four.
I think, well, they are four and four, right?
What's the tech?
What's their risk?
What's the cost?
No, I don't know if they're four and four.
You don't think so?
I don't know if they run four games, Ocho.
They might have.
No, I think. They're four and four. They're they might have they're 4-4 they're 500
you're right
so what they're doing
what Mr. Syken is doing
he's making a change because he feels
the team has a chance and an opportunity
to make a run
at some point Anthony Richardson
will be the future of the Colts but right
now we're going to put Flacco in because he gives
us they think they feel which is to put Flacco in because he gives us they think, they feel, which
is true statistically,
Flacco gives them the best chance to
win right now and compete. And this
is a compete division
because the Texans
aren't what they were. Jacksonville is very
hit or miss. We know where the Titans
are. And
look, I know people are saying that
he tapped out and that's one of the reasons
but you got to look at his record oh cho this guy has a worse completion percentage than tim tebow
tim tebow completed 46 of his passes he's completing 46 44 that's four percent lower
than jamarcus russell did we think jamarcus Russell and Tim Tebow were good quarterbacks?
No, we didn't.
And his completion percentage
is worse than theirs.
He needs time to watch.
They put him in too quick
when he wasn't ready.
And what happens is, Ocho,
is that when you draft someone that high
and you draft him at that position,
you're not waiting because
after the end of the third year,
oh, I'm going to have to make a decision.
I'm going to have to get these guys
$300, $400, $500 million.
I need to see.
Right.
And in the process of that,
because like you said,
he didn't play a whole lot of football
and he didn't play a whole lot of football
in a pro-style offense.
Right. A lot of his stuff, he was running the football well you know he said the nfl was easy i can't tell if the nfl is easy and you complete 44 of your passes what the hell you
think would happen if the nfl was hard don't you can i tell you one more thing on yeah that i don't
like and i'm just saying chat y'all stay with me quick, real quick. Listen to me when it comes to the game
of football. When you're drafted that high, you have
expectations, you have friends,
you have people telling you this, you
that, and you get to the NFL,
you get drafted that high, then you plan,
you have a certain high,
a certain aura and feeling about
yourself when you feel good.
You know what it feels like to get benched on?
Do you understand what it feels like to get benched on? Do you understand what it
feels like to get benched, though?
As a quarterback, forget some of the other
positions, because some of the other positions,
you have an opportunity to bounce back,
and you have an opportunity to make
those plays again. But as a quarterback,
I think it does something, especially
when you're young, it does something to your psyche.
I'm assuming.
It has to. It has to do something
to your psyche. So now, you're telling me
I'm playing bad. I'm playing so bad.
You're going to sit me down and bench me for
Joe Flacco. So if I do get
the opportunity to play again, what's the first
fucking thing I'm going to do?
I'm going to be goddamn indecisive.
Well, hopefully you learn.
Hey, I'm going to be hesitant.
I'm not going to make the big plays I was making earlier.
I just, I don't know.
Give me his last three games.
It's weird to me.
Like nine and 10 passes.
Hopefully, hopefully he gets an opportunity to sit and watch.
And then he can come.
He said, well, Joe, what if Joe asked him and he can ask Joe, Joe, what did you see?
Why did you go there?
Because that's the biggest thing.
Oh, Joe, you can't throw 30 passes
and complete eight of them in the NFL.
You're not going to win like that.
Yeah.
You know what? And then we can't we can't play in the receivers
because they got they got a squad now.
Yeah. And they got some
boys now.
Listen, normally I would have mentioned receivers, but they got they got some dogs now i i listen normally i would have mentioned receivers but
they got they got some dogs that they're jr pitman they got another they got another guy i forget the
other guy's name i think he might be no 15 or something but he can go to 10 number 10 okay yeah
the name this is like okay i don't know his last name boy that boy be playing some ball boy
oh joe yes sir uh against houston in Sunday's loss, he was 10 of 32.
In a win against Miami, he was 10 of 24.
Pittsburgh, I think that's when Flacco came in, he was 3 of 4.
Against Chicago, he was 10 of 20.
Against Green Bay, he was 17 of 34.
Against Houston, he was 9 of 19.
Ocho, you're not going to win very many games with numbers like that, bro.
Not in today's
Ocho, because they've set it up
for you to throw the ball. Think
about the incidental contact.
Think about the holding. Think about
roughing the passer. Think about so many things
that can go right when
you throw the ball.
Really, when you run the ball, the only
thing that can go wrong or go right
for you is somebody face-masking.
There's a chance you get a holding on the
offensive line. There's a chance you get
a holding on the
wide receivers.
So there are more things that can go
wrong when you
run the ball as
opposed to when you throw it. Because there's
so many things defense illegal
hands to the face why incidental contact holding pass interference right roughing the passer
the league has been set up for you to throw it that's why they paid
wide receivers making 30 million quarterback making 60 million what does that tell you ocho
yeah and running backs making five million so what do they try to tell you to do ocho
throw that ball throw it um but i i hope alex that's the name to say alex pierce i hate that
man ocho it's okay it's it i mean i I'm saying I only hate it
I'm talking about the mental part
because when you get benched it does something to you
it's like losing your job and you get demoted
in the corporate world
you're like damn
all the motherfucking work I done put in
I'm trying
the work I'm putting in is not turning
into what it should be
on Sundays
then you start questioning yourself what happens when you get fired putting in is not turning into what it should be on Sundays. What am I doing wrong?
Then you start questioning yourself.
What happens when you get fired?
Oh, that's even worse.
See, guess what? I got fired from CBS.
What'd I do? Go get me a job at Fox.
Got fired at Fox. What'd I do?
I just get bigger and bigger.
Right, right, right. Because I learned.
Yeah.
I learned, and that's what he needs to do.
He needs to learn.
Look, everybody can say, well, he got
fired because of this or he got fired because
of that. I'll leave
that to the Twitter committee
and the YouTube tribe because everybody
has an opinion on what they think happened
and transpired and nobody really knows
because
you weren't in the room.
Right. Oh, he got
fired because of this. Bro,
stop. You don't know.
Everybody likes to speculate. I'm like, damn.
I didn't know, Ocho. I was
this big of a commodity.
It seems like now everybody that got a YouTube
channel got to talk about me. I appreciate
it. You know, Keith, my algorithm keep Ocho
and the nightcap and club Shay Shay keep us going.. I appreciate it. You know, Keith's my algorithm. Keep Ocho and the nightcap and
club Shay Shay keep on going. So I
appreciate it. But
he just needs to take
a step back and don't look.
You know what? You got to get better.
You got to get better. It's really that
simple. Got to. You ain't
got no choice. But I'm thinking
about it. I mean, can you, how do you get
better at the quarterback position?
Is it by taking reps?
Is it by watching?
It depends on what type of player he is.
Yes.
You know, it depends on what type of player he is.
And the funny thing about it is you can do it over and over and over and over and over in practice.
But when it comes to them bullets flying on game day, on the real Sunday, it's different.
You do.
It's different. You do.
Your decision-making has to be on point.
You got to be sharper than the number two pencil now.
At the end of the day,
even though you can rely on your athleticism,
you still have to throw the ball from the pocket.
And it helps that Mahomes is great at improvisation.
It was great that Aaron Rodgers was great at improvisation,
but at the end of the day, they still had to throw the ball with accuracy
from the pocket.
That athleticism, you can
only go so far because them guys,
them big guys over there,
they can catch your ass.
They bounce just as fast.
Yes!
They bounce just as fast.
Yes!
I just hope he takes this, he learns from this, he grows from this,
and he becomes the player that they selected him to be
with the number four overall draft pick two years ago.
And if he does that, don't cry, oh, poor me, I didn't get a fair chance.
Bro, you got more than a fair chance.
But they see that they got a chance chance. Bro, you got more than a fair chance. But they see that
they got a chance in this division, Ocho.
Yeah. That's why they made the change.
Yes. That's why they made
the change.
Coach
wide receiver Josh Downs was asking if he
thinks he'll play with Anthony Richardson
again. At the end of the day, Joe
is like 40 years old. So he's only
got so many more years. I'd say
AR is 22, 23. He's
still the number four overall pick.
I know he's going to start again.
I agree. I agree.
Check this out, Ocho. Does the NFL
have a quarterback development problem?
Anthony Richardson, 22. Bench.
Bryce Young, 23. Bench.
Trey Lance, 24. Bench.
Traded.
Justin Fields, 25. Bench. Will Le 23, bench. Trey Lance, 24, bench, traded. Justin Fields, 25, bench.
Will Levis, 25, bench.
Zach Wilson, 25, bench.
Mack Jones, 26, bench.
Kenny Pickett, 26, bench.
Hey, that's a good one.
You know what?
Every quarterback you just named, the situation on why they were benched is different.
The teams and where the team is structured
are completely different.
Some of those quarterbacks,
in order to succeed, they would have to be
damn near Superman. Yes.
They would have to be damn... Bryce Young
would have to be Superman.
Peyton Manning ain't succeeding
in that.
People don't realize what Peyton had. He't succeeding in that people don't realize
what Peyton had
he had Marvin Harrison
and he had Marshall Falk
when he got there
and he had Ken Dilder
yeah it's different
and he had what was the other
he had another
nah he might have
he might have came later I forget the other tight end name
but I know Dallas was the way I was done going Nah, he might have came late. I forget the other tight end name.
But I know Dallas was the way I was done going.
But I'm saying Manning had a nice support system when he arrived there.
Think about Marvin Harrison with the first Ballot Hall of Fame.
Marshall with the first Ballot Hall of Famer.
He's the offensive player of the year.
He's an MVP.
Man, look what Bryce Young got.
None of these quarterbacks had anything
close to that.
I'm not sure they even had
a Pro Bowl. Well, I think
DJ Moore went to the Pro Bowl. So I think
Zach Wilson,
well, Gary Wilson was
what? Offensive player of the year, Gary Wilson was, what,
Offensive Player of the Year.
Gary Wilson was Offensive Player of the Year.
But for the most part, you got to have some weapons, man.
Yeah.
For these young guys, you got to surround them with a talent
until he's able.
So you have to put pieces around him, Ojo,
to carry him until he can able run on his own and he can carry
you. He can carry the talent, yes.
Right now, oh yeah, Marcus Pollard.
That was his name, Marcus Pollard.
Okay.
Agents are
telling kids to stay in college
if you don't have at least two years of starting.
Ocho, it's hard
because Anthony Richardson probably
got $30 million guaranteed
and in three years he has an opportunity to make
$250 to $300. How you tell
a kid to stay in school when that's
on the horizon?
Yeah. I think it's different though.
Every kid is different.
You having to stay in school
for two years just because you stay in school
two years doesn't mean you're going to transition and all
of a sudden it's going to work out.
You can stay in school one
and go to the league and turn out to be
I'm not saying turn out to be
Patrick Mahoney.
Have a great season. Joe Burrow started
basically one year.
Listen, there are some players that
are special and understand
the skill set
and I call it how sharp how sharp they
are some some players that take much longer some don't some hit the ground running but ocho you
know what we've got to get out this notion that everybody that comes in the nfl is going to
succeed when has that ever been the case it's not ocho it's now that every think about how many
other quarterbacks have flamed out.
This is not unique.
Hey, situation and circumstance matters.
Yes.
Where you go matters.
I really think it does.
I mean, I think the thing is now that we're like, oh, he's a,
well, sometimes it's just not meant to be.
Everybody that comes to the NFL ain't going to have a,
there's a reason why the average NFL career is three years
because if everybody made it, the
average NFL career would be seven,
eight, ten, twelve. There's
a reason why.
And it's okay.
I know, look, I know
these guys, oh man, but they were so good in college.
How many times have we seen guys that
were so good in college not be able to cut it in the NFL?
And there have been guys that didn't have great stellar college careers
turn out to be great pros.
But we just can't say it's just like,
just because you go to Harvard,
you grad get a degree from Harvard,
that don't mean you're going to be the best businessman.
That doesn't mean that you're going to be,
it might give you an opportunity because you've had access.
It opens some doors.
Yes.
But at the end of the day,
there could be somebody that went to an HBCU that went to a mid school that
be just as great.
So this notion that,
Oh,
the system is failing.
Yeah.
Maybe in some situations,
but even with great coaching,
everybody is not going to make it.
There's never been a situation
that everybody, oh, he got a law degree.
Oh, he about to make $500,000 a year.
Oh, he got a med degree.
He's about to be a great neurosurgeon
or a great this.
No.
No, it doesn't work like that, guys.
But I think the thing is that we're looking at these quarterbacks
and we're paying so much more close attention
that we're like, damn, what's going on?
Yeah.
And then it makes it even worse when they're high picks, huh?
Because, listen, when you go that high,
not only do they have their own expectations,
shoot, us, even me as a fan,
I have expectations as well.
I'm expecting you to be the face of that franchise
and change it.
Show me why they picked you that high.
I enjoy it.
Remember, listen, I want quarterback,
but quarterback need to start talking shit.
That's the problem.
They too quiet.
What did Jamar Chase say before he got drafted?
When he got drafted?
Yeah, but Jamar Chase ain't the quarterback.
I'm finna go there and break every record.
What the hell is he on pace to keep on doing?
Guess what?
Break every damn record.
Jamar Chase is going against 1DB.
When you got little mofos trying to tear your head off,
they're the reason why quarterbacks keep their damn mouth shut.
Okay, okay.
Because LT and TJ Watt and Nick Bosa's going to bust
your ass. So you go out there
talking, oh, I ain't worried about nothing.
What you think is going to happen?
What you think is going to happen? You know what's going to happen.
Hey, could you imagine
if you played quarterback? No.
No, I couldn't.
Because my instinct is to talk
ish, and the next thing you know, my
helmet sideways.
Hey, I was just thinking about that, man.
That's funny.
It's a whole different ball game.
And sometimes guys come in with targets on their backs anyway.
Right, right.
But look, and that's the thing.
Also, Ocho, when these guys come in, they not going.
It's not a situation like
James Worthy he got drafted number
one overall and went to the Lakers after they
had just won the championship if
you a high draft pick at quarterback you go
into a bull jive team
it's simple it ain't no other
way around it
ain't no quarterback getting drafted
going and it's because it's different
you ain't getting drafted by the chiefs.
If you're a quarterback anyway.
Oh,
no,
you're not getting drafted to Buffalo.
You're not getting drafted to any of the teams that went to the playoff the
year before.
Right.
So,
and if you do,
you're going to be in the late rounds.
Right.
As a backup.
And you ain't got no expectations.
They groom you.
Uh, uh, uh, you look got no expectations. They grooming you.
You look at the Chiefs, they not taking a quarterback peer. They might go get a quarterback
that's been Carson Wentz.
Right.
Somebody ain't got no expectations. You know
what you're here for. If something happened to Mahone,
we're going to need you for two or three games.
You've been a star in this league.
You played some football.
You played some good football.
You played a lot more bad football than good football.
But, hey, we believe you can give us a stretch
somewhere between three and five weeks
until hopefully Patrick Mahomes, nothing happens,
and he'll be back.
But where y'all thought it was going to go?
Everybody doesn't get a situation
where they get like an Aaron Rodgers
and they get an opportunity to sit for three years.
Patrick Mahomes had to sit for a year.
Yep.
But everybody isn't getting
those kind of ideal situations, Ocho,
because everybody coming in,
and I'm sure Aaron probably wanted to start,
but you know everybody coming in.
Oh, man.
Oh, man.
Hell no.
The way he,
the way,
the way guys are wired.
It didn't matter that where you went to.
Hey,
you like,
Hey,
I can play.
I need to get on the field,
but I don't know.
Look,
I understand what agents are telling kids,
but Ocho,
if I got an opportunity,
I'm going to make $30 million guaranteed. I ain't staying in school.
I'll holler at you, homie.
First of all,
no matter if I'm in NFL, what am I going
to school to do?
College is supposed to teach you how to make money. Get a job
and make money. The NFL is
speeding that process up. Why would
I deny that? Why would I slow it down?
By waiting.
And run the risk of getting hurt
if I get hurt I'm going to get hurt on the
NFL dime with that 30 million
guaranteed
that's what me personally now
everybody got to make their decision sometimes
you get a situation like a Peyton and Eli
they're dead they're middle class upper middle
class they cool
but people that look like me and you
we ain't no upper middle class.
Uh-uh. We poor. And our job is to get our family out of that situation.
And as soon as we can do that, that's what we're going to do.
Every time.
I'm Michael Kasson, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company.
The podcast where I sit down
with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood,
CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world
of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences
with stories that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out
there. And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology,
entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space
and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company
on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency.
Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
No.
It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.
And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
I'm going to ask...
I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra,
you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal
that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today.
The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you.

probably 150,
200 pair.
Yeah, see you tripping, man. You's a
hoarder. You's a hoarder.
They need to do a show on you
collecting shoes for no reason just to have shoes.
Nah, but that's what I do.
I have 12 pair of shoes. I have 12 pair of shoes.
I have 12
pair of shoes. They are 12 months
in the year.
So I always tell myself, my grandma always said,
boy, you only need one
pair of shoe a month. And that's how I live.
I have 12 pair
of shoes, one for each
month. That's it. And I never go
over 12.
You know what Oo back with like with ash and i was at fs1 i was like you know what ash i'm gonna
wear a different pair of shoes every day and every day every day i said i'm gonna wear i i told
her i said i got i could wear a different pair of shoes for at least a year and a half maybe two
years nah you can't damn so we started out, I went like
a month.
I said, man, later for this,
because I got to go in the box, I got to take
them out of the box, I got to lace them up.
I said, man, later for this.
And so that's why I just like, you know what?
And I just wore the same shoe. So I said, I'm done with this.
And I was like, I'm going to sell.
I'm going to sell.
And cool kicks, like was like, I'm going to sell. I'm going to sell. And Kool Kicks, like, hey, you want to sell it?
I'm like, yeah, I will.
I absolutely will.
What not?
What not?
Well, we said Kool Kicks, right?
We're at Kool Kicks headquarters.
But what not says, like, ask me would I be interested in party ways?
I was like, well, how many?
Like, well, how many you want to sell?
I say, at least I probably, let's see how many I got.
Man, Ocho, I had a whole room.
My closet, they had already taken over my closet.
Then I ended up taking a bed out and putting his shoes stacked up in the room where the bed used to be.
So I said, no, I'm done.
And I still probably got like 75 pair in Atlanta,
like Oregon Duck 3s.
I still got some 5s.
I still got like 14s.
I still got some air.
It's just time.
It's time, Mocho.
It's time.
Yeah, it is.
You're going to feel better about yourself, too.
You need to get rid of those.
I'm sure the money's probably going to a good cause.
You get rid of them, create some space.
I want to have a scholarship.
I want to have a scholarship funded by Alma Mater.
I like it.
I like that.
I like that.
That's what I want.
That's what I want.
It's the first time that I'm going to do something and people will know about it.
Because a lot of times I give money to various charities and they have one simple,
I give them one, I don't care.
Okay, I understand what this charity is
and I'm sure y'all are going to use y'all discretion
and distribute the money in a place it's supposed to go.
I said, but you can never tell that I gave you anything.
I said, if you ever tell that I gave you money,
I'll never give to this organization again.
Because I'm not giving it because I'm not giving it I'm not giving it
for that reason
people don't need to know
I like people who are like you don't do nothing for your community
you don't do nothing
you don't know what I do
so this is for a worthy cause
and so if it goes well
the next collection I'm probably going to sell everything but about.
I'll probably keep like 10 pair.
I'll probably keep 15 pair.
But there are shoes that I can wear on the regular.
Not not the not the.
And I got some of the Yeezys like when he first went to Adidas.
Right.
The 750 boot.
I got I got a couple of pair of those.
I got a black.
I got the black, I got the brown
I got like some of the 350's
I got some of the early stuff that he did
when he first went to Adidas
so
I like it
that's where
y'all rich folks be going crazy
with the shoes
man look
I was with nike and that
definitely helps but a lot of times i would give it like to my teammates burns and bucket got more
ish than i did my sister uh you know she got a lot of stuff my sister still wears she still got her old shoes in the box i ain't played in 20 years
right but she wore the same shoes uh but burns bucket uh a couple of people like that i got
a little stuff but my a lot of my teammates they would want stuff and i would get it for them and
so that's how it kind of started ocho is that with that and then i would see stuff i was like man i
won't okay i want this i want this
i want this and i and so sometimes i was able to get it sometimes i wasn't and i had to pay
um but it's time to part with it now it really is uh and so hopefully uh
i mean i don't like i said i don't know i mean ash was telling me some of the prices like one

Well, I don't even spend
Everything in the buy now is in the 200s

the chunky dunks and I got a lot of dunks.

The strawberry, I got strawberry dunks

strange love, strange love,
strange love. That's what they call it.
Too bad shit. Oh, did we include that size eight i got a size alv
yes they're real yeah i show yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah. That's an expensive hobby that I choose not to partake in.
I stick to my simple shoes.
But I tell you what, collecting shoes is cheaper than watches.
That's for damn sure.
Yeah, yeah.
That's for damn sure.
That's a very expensive hobby.
I had two expensive hobbies.
One is more expensive than the other, for sure. That's a very expensive hobby. I had two expensive hobbies. One is more expensive than the other, for sure.
Yeah, you know, I
started dibbling, dabbling in some
watches, you know.
The money
coming in a little different these days.
But I got, like I
said,
like I said, I wanted to do something for Savannah State.
I wanted to establish a scholarship fund.
And give back for an institution that did so much for me.
The doctors are my favorite.
Joyce McLemore, who was my remedial reading teacher. Um, Joanne green,
who was my,
my read,
um,
my remedial English teacher.
Cause I started Savannah state and all developmental studies,
all remedial classes.
And those Scott Simpson was my remedial math teacher.
He got me out of there.
And then I got with Haynes Walton.
I got with Norman Elmore.
I got with man.
Clara Bain,
Gay Hewitt,
Scott Smith.
I mean,
uh,
uh,
Steven Smith and my life,
my life changed.
My life changed.
They opened my eyes and I couldn't have done. I eyes. And I couldn't have done,
I couldn't,
I couldn't,
I wouldn't be the person that I am without that experience.
I met a guy that's like my brother Bucket at Savannah State.
All of my kids,
all of my kids' moms went to Savannah State.
So, man,
it's going to be, it's gonna be
a great
honor for me to go and present
that check to the president
that's gonna be a proud moment
for me Ocho
but that's not the end of it now
so now that's gonna be
a regular occurrence.
So every year I'm going to donate to that fund.
Right.
And obviously, you know, hopefully I got at least 20 more times around the state, 20 more summers.
Obviously, in my my state, Savannah State will get a big chunk also.
So I'm very appreciative to what Savannah State has been able to do for me and help me in my life.
