18:03Joe Johnson:Hey, not only is he ready to debut, hey, Joe, man, he finna be surgical with that ball, too. What? Man, I'm telling you, watch what I tell you.

18:13Shannon Sharpe:We coming to get him, Joe. We coming to get him. Hey, hey, hey. That's what I'm saying. Hey, look, Mahomes, I know he can pocket pass, but he like to use them legs and get outside of that pocket too now, Joe. We gon' see if he trust them legs.

18:27Joe Johnson:That's what I'm saying, okay. Yeah, only when he got to. too. Hey, listen, the enemy over there calling the plays, they're going to call plays that are safe. Call plays where things worked in practice and that he's sure. Okay, we know we got them boys coming out the edge. Let's get the ball out of his hand. Let's go quick game. Get that young bull in the rhythm now. Don't put him in harm's way. Can you put him in harm's way? You know what he's going to do now. He's going to try to make a play.

18:54Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. They're going to keep him safe. It's our job to put him in harm's way. It's their job to protect him. It's our job to put his ass in harm's way. Yes, sir.

19:03Joe Johnson:So, hold on, hold on. You think y 'all got a chance to win, or? We going to win. Ooh, hey, I like the confidence. And you know what? When you said that with no hesitation, too. Yeah. No hesitation.

19:17Shannon Sharpe:You got to think about it, Ocho. You got to think. When they was at their apex, the Broncos was giving them hell. They were going to beat us by three, kick in the lake, second field goal. We missed a field goal. They win because we missed. They made.

19:28Joe Johnson:Yeah.

19:29Shannon Sharpe:And they're not that same team. They're not that same powerhouse juggernaut that they once were. They're a good team. Don't get me wrong. Now, anytime you got that guy, you got a guy like that in your backfield, you got a chance to be great. You got a chance.

19:45Joe Johnson:Yeah.

19:47Shannon Sharpe:And everybody don't have a guy like that. No. So they're going to be – they're familiar. And it's a division opponent. We played them twice a year, sometimes three times a year, going back to the 60s. Mm-hmm. So it is what it is. There ain't no love lost between us. We try to, hey, they try to injure us. We try to send them to the hospital. We out of the playoffs. We try to make sure they come out with us. Ain't no love lost between us and the Raiders. The Chargers, the Chargers are what they are. But the Raiders in Kansas City? Yes, sir. Nah, we don't fool. Quiet confidence. It's not what you see.

21:02That's the reaction a lot of people are having when they first try Kewpie mayo. It's the one with the red cap and the little baby on the bottle. You've probably seen it in the grocery store before. And if you've ever just walked past it, some people would say that's a huge mistake. Because this mayo is different. Most mayonnaise uses whole eggs. Kewpie only uses egg yolks, which gives it this rich umami flavor. It's smoother, deeper, and almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Egg sandwiches, fries, burgers. Some fans even swear by dipping pizza crust in it. And once you notice it, you start seeing it everywhere.

21:37Chefs use it. Restaurants use it. People who really care about flavor use it. Never tried it? Grab the bottle with the red cap next time you're at the store. Put it on just about anything. Then you'll understand. Kupi, the original Japanese mayonnaise. Hey, sports fans. Your away game road trip doesn't start at the kickoff. It starts on the road.

23:52Shannon Sharpe:The Saints defeated the Cowboys 27-24. Spencer Rattler, 8 of 10, 79 yards, one rushing touchdown. Saints wide receiver Jordan Hudson, four catches, 97 yards and a touchdown. Was that the Saints wide receiver or that was the Cowboys wide receiver? But anyway, Sam Howell played well, 12 of 18, 155. Two TDs just in case. you know hey you gotta have a solid backup Joe just in case you never know you never know if Dak has an injury history I know we don't like to talk about that but he has been nicked up over the last couple years yeah that was Dallas's Jordan Hudson alright Ash you must be sleepy too Jordan Hudson had four and he had a hell of a what did that catch over the middle for 52

24:42Joe Johnson:yeah it was nice and a nice one in the right side of the end zone. He was bold in that.

24:50Shannon Sharpe:Both quarterbacks for the Cowboys, I thought, played. I thought both quarterbacks for both teams, I thought, played well. Zach Wilson was 9 of 12, 93 yards. Spencer Rattler, 8 of 10, 79 yards. Sam Howell, 12 of 18, 155. Joe Milton, 8 of 15, 92. So I thought both quarterbacks on both teams played well, did what they were supposed to do. Very close ball game, interesting ball game. The Cowboys, these young guys, you know, Camden Brown had won for 27. He played really well. Remember last week, he was the star of the show. This week, it was Jordan Hudson. So what you're seeing and what I like to see is that I see guys each week, somebody else steps up and says, give me an opportunity.

25:31Shannon Sharpe:And when the opportunity presents itself, Ocho and Joe, they take advantage of it. Yeah. I like Sam Howard, but hey, he came out, he did his thing on the Ocho. I mean, hell of an offensive efficiency pass and two touchdowns. And, you know, he the one ignited that comeback they had because, yeah, we were down 24-9. I know it's preseason and we third, fourth string guys, but at the same time, Ocho, we got guys out there battling trying to make the damn team. They're like, look, man, I can't help who out here who I'm competing against. I can only take advantage of the opportunity that's given to me.

26:08Shannon Sharpe:Hey, man, I got to produce. So, Am Howell looked good tonight, boy. No, they looked good. They looked good. I mean, I thought both quarterbacks handled the situation very well. You know, Spencer Rattler's like, you know what, damn. I thought I was playing well, but Tyler Shook, he came in the game. We missed on him, Mojo. We laughed at the name when the man was drafted. That was a great opportunity. But, hey, Shook, he ain't shooken. He ain't jibing.

26:38Joe Johnson:When he came in and took over the back half of the season, man, listen. The Saints look good. I think they got them one. The Saints have them one. One that they can confide in who will be the next quarterback to take over since Drew Brees' absence. I think they definitely got them one.

26:57Shannon Sharpe:I think so, too. I think so, too. And they got a quarterback. I got a head coach that can call plays. Dallas, when he was in Dallas, their offense was unbelievable. Now, if they can get some consistency on the defensive side of the football, I think, obviously, they'll be just fine. Yeah. The Bengals defeated the Eagles 30-13. Ocho's Bengals had a perfect preseason. 40-year-old Josh Johnson still making plays. He was 12 of 19, 159 yards. Bengals' running game looked really good. Kentrell Bullock, 14 carries, 85 yards on the touchdown. And Jamal Hayes had Philly looking silly on seven carries for 78 yards.

27:35He had one, that one run, man. He was, I was like, bro.

27:40Shannon Sharpe:Woo. Yeah, it was a 24 in the old Pac-Man jersey. Man, he done juked about 55, 55. He juked like several people several times. Like, bro, just lay on the ground. Because he done shook you twice. Just go ahead and lay there.

27:55Joe Johnson:Yeah.

27:55Shannon Sharpe:What you like about what you saw from your team, Mocho?

27:58Joe Johnson:But it looked good. I mean, listen, JJ looked good back there playing quarterback. Obviously, he's been around. He's been around for a very long time. I think this might be his 14th team, Joe, something like that. He's been a journeyman, but he's been a good journeyman. Obviously not enough to start, but he's someone that if your starting quarterback gets hurt or your secondary quarterback gets hurt, he's someone that can come in and steer the ship. And he showed that tonight. I think he should make the team. There's no reason why he shouldn't, especially with the way he looked tonight. Those receivers, man, Joe, that receiver, man.

28:30Joe Johnson:Dante Myers, he has a very, very interesting story, very interesting story. He played in Saskatchewan, if I'm not mistaken. Got his opportunity to come, you know, to get opportunity with the Bengals. He drove from somewhere. I don't know it completely, so don't quote me. But his story is interesting. And to be able to have an opportunity to make this Bengals team and make this Bengals roster, he showed out, man, not only in training camp, but every game they've had, every game they had. I think we might have collectively as a whole, not just the starters, not just our two ones. I mean, collectively as a whole, we might have the best receiving group in its totality in the NFL with the way those young receivers are playing.

29:14Shannon Sharpe:Joe, what you thinking? Man, the Bengals, they showed some decent depth, Uncle Ocho. You know, I thought that young players came out, generated big plays. You talk about the Cantrell Bullock kid and Jamal Haynes. You know, I think those guys are both, you know, worth mentioning and talking about. They made big plays today. I think when you look at the Eagles, you know, the backup competition, major storyline, you look at Andy Dalton. What's the other kid? McKee. Tanner McKee. And the Peyton kid, those guys getting opportunities to really show what they can do to get that, you know, that second QB slot behind Jalen Hurts.

29:56Shannon Sharpe:I mean, it's the last preseason game, bro. These guys are trying to make the team at this point. That's it. Billy Damian Pierce. If I'm not mistaken, that was the guy. He used to be at the Houston Texans. So he's a solid running back. Very different. More power than Saquon. Saquon is more of a loser. He can drop his shoulder on you. But he's more of a power back than Saquon is. Tanama Keith, the question is, I don't even know how to do it now, Ocho. Because now they'll put veteran guys on the damn practice squad. Yeah. Whereas before, it was just the young guys on shows. Now they got 30-year-old guys on the damn practice squad.

30:35Shannon Sharpe:So I don't know. I know they really like Tanner McKee. I do know that. Andy Dalton has been around for an extended period of time. Yes. To make plays, we know what Andy Dalton brings to the table. Probably good. Can win you a game or two. But the longer it goes, the more they're able to figure him out. All things being equal. I think if I had to choose, I think I would take Tanner McKee as my backup. and roll the dice with him as opposed to taking a chance of releasing him. They might just keep three quarterbacks. That's a possibility also. Yeah.

31:11Joe Johnson:Yeah, I mean, they might, depending on how secure they are at other positions. Yeah.

31:21Shannon Sharpe:Well, defensively, if they're strong suit, in your strong suit, you always want to have depth. Yeah. I understand that you got Devontae. He's on a big contract. Saquon's on a big contract. Jalen's on a big contract. You got those offensive linemen. But your strong suit is the defense. Yeah. You pay both your D tackles. You got your two DBs that's going to be up for contract. Yeah. Dejon, Dejon, Cooper, Dejon. Dejon. Dejon. But no, I thought the Bengals looked good. I thought the Bengals did what they were supposed to do, Ojo. They came out, look, they played the guys in the first. You did see some, because the last couple of preseasons, the Bengals didn't play any of their guys, any of their meaningful guys they didn't play.

32:18Shannon Sharpe:They did give them some rest. They didn't play them as much as some of the other teams did. But it's a start. It helps. The Eagles, 0-3. I mean, obviously you want to win. Anytime you go out there, you try and win the ball game. But how much stock do we put in there? You know, hell, the Ravens went like five, six years without losing a damn preseason game. So I don't know how much.

32:54Shannon Sharpe:So, uh.

32:57Joe Johnson:I'm putting stock in it.

32:59Shannon Sharpe:Oh, you're putting stock in the green, though?

33:00Joe Johnson:Yeah, I'm putting stock in it. Maybe, but I've seen, hey, listen. I've seen the Detroit Lions go 4-0 in the preseason, huh?

33:10Shannon Sharpe:And go 0-16?

33:11Joe Johnson:And go 0-16 that season, bro.

33:13Shannon Sharpe:I got that team photo. Damn. Yeah. Every time I'm in Atlanta, I'm going to show y 'all the team photo I got. Yeah. Hey, Ocho, how you putting stock in this? ain't none of the starters played. I mean, you just want to win. Win's a win.

33:28Joe Johnson:You know what I like? I like the fact that that's all coaching, Joe. That's all coaching. And them boys, them young boys, they really getting to it. They getting after it. So I know if anything, God willing, let me knock on wood, I don't want nothing to happen to any of my starters offensively. But I know one thing. When they come in and they have to make plays, we got receivers that can make plays. We got to beat the second place, huh? Where y 'all open up at? Tampa Bay coming to us in Cincinnati and then we in Houston week two. Woo hoo hoo. Woo hoo hoo. Who what? Y 'all start one and one. Who?

34:10Joe Johnson:You won't bet nothing.

34:13Shannon Sharpe:Y 'all ain't beat the Texas.

34:14Joe Johnson:Listen, not that offense, man. Y 'all ain't beat Texas.

34:17Shannon Sharpe:Who, what? Y 'all ain't beat the Texas. Oh, this y 'all's, hold on. That's our schedule, ain't it? Oh, preseason. Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Y 'all ain't beating the Texas. They ain't beating the Texas, Joe. You ain't got nothing to worry about. It's say they ain't in Cleveland. Huh? Oh, this 2025 schedule. Who put that up there?

34:38Joe Johnson:That's the wrong schedule. That's the wrong schedule, huh? Yeah, we Tampa, Tampa come to Cincinnati. And I know, you know, week two, we down there. Hey, hey, all I'm gonna do, I'm gonna tip my hat, boy. Howdy, cause the bangles coming to town.

34:52Shannon Sharpe:We talking about game one, are you talking about game two in Houston?

34:54Joe Johnson:Oh yeah.

34:56Shannon Sharpe:I don't know if I feel comfortable going and watching my team lose Joe.

35:01Joe Johnson:Oh, you going to the game Joe? Oh yeah, I'll be there. I'll be there. Matter of fact, that week too Joe, it's a Cincinnati invasion. You know, I'm hosting that chat. Why y 'all don't travel like that?

40:32Joe Johnson:All our games sell out. So when the last time you've been to a regular game?

They'd take over somebody's stadium, man. I ain't never seen nothing like that. I've seen them. I forgot. I've seen them take over. I was one year. I forgot what year it was. I swear for God. It confused me. The tweet might still be up. I was going, I was in the airport. I know the Dolphins were playing the Eagles, but I had to fly out. If I'm not mistaken, I had to go do NFL films. and dude I've never seen so many Eagles fans at the same time I don't know if they they coordinated the planes all land at the same time but man they flooded Miami Airport what I mean I'm walking in and they coming out I'm like what in the world it was yeah they they

46:12Shannon Sharpe:Falcons defeated the Dolphins 17-12. Tua faced his old team today with 7 of 8, 95 yards, zero touchdowns, and a fumble. When Tua ran onto the field, he got a loud amount of booze. Damn. After the game, he was asking if he heard the booze from the hard rock crowd. Of course I did. I had six years here, and those are some of the best six years of my life. Regardless of the reaction, I love the city. Ocho? Yes, sir. Did you think Tua would get a little better reception than what he got?

46:42Joe Johnson:No, absolutely not. Once you don't play for the home team anymore, you know how fans are. They're very fickle. Now, when you're playing for them, if you're not playing well, they'll boo you. So you already know what you're going to get once you're gone and you're on the opposing team and you happen to come back to the city where you played and didn't play well towards the end of that stint. Oh, they're going to boo you, huh? And he knows that because he got booed when he was actually here and playing When they weren't playing well, so I've listened to it to and those how to say all the right things He knows how to say the right things knows how to give off that PC answer, but how he really feels he would never share But it doesn't bother him.

47:18Joe Johnson:He doesn't it doesn't bother him at all

47:20Shannon Sharpe:It would it bothered him You think so?

47:25Joe Johnson:Yeah, yeah You stupid you were bad.

47:27Shannon Sharpe:Let me if you were back to Cincinnati you got booed. It wouldn't bother you

47:33Joe Johnson:hold on they didn't even boo me at away games from other teams so i i'm not i don't know what

47:37Shannon Sharpe:that feels like but i'm saying if you went back and they did boo you oh how much you love cincinnati

47:43Joe Johnson:okay yeah uh probably not because i could really care less honestly you know how i am i can't tell the way you be caping up for him oh before you say anything before you say anything you have to remember this is ocho we talk about man yeah i know what this is this is someone that was villainized to the media because of the way he conducted himself so obviously if i did change when the media villainized you who had your back god them bingo fans oh yeah they ate they did what they did and they and i kept on doing everything huh yeah because you didn't you were doing it for them you weren't doing it for the media that that is true i was doing it for them and actually myself as well because i wanted to bring as much entertainment as possible because there's really nothing else to actually watch for because we had losing seasons.

48:28Joe Johnson:But I'm thinking about my mentality in general. I'm thinking about my mentality in general. And me being able to shut something off, that means me no good anymore. I just think I would be okay with being booed because in a sense, I can go from, oh, I love you. And if things aren't going well, well, shoot. Well, fuck you. Excuse me. I'm sorry. I've been doing really well with not cursing. I can really be like, well, forget you too.

48:52Shannon Sharpe:For me, knowing how much I gave, and I gave it all, and now I come back, yeah, it would bother me. Because all them times I took them injections, all the times that I went out there and I wasn't supposed to be out there to make sure I could help the team win and give those fans something to cheer about and to be proud of their hometown team. Yeah, it would bother me. I ain't fit the whole joke. Hey, listen, when I went to Brooklyn, I got traded to Brooklyn, Ocho. I came back here to Atlanta. Boy, they booed the hell out of me. Did it, Ocho? Boy, what? I'm talking about two and we step on the flow.

49:33Shannon Sharpe:Boo? I'm talking about like it was my fault. Like it was my fault I got traded. Like it was nothing. Ocho, talking about the boo birds was out. I had about 30 that night. You got 30 on them and they booed you? but hey

49:48Joe Johnson:I would play into that though Joe you better than me I don't think I could have played basketball and take that same entertainment value that I had in football and I got a helmet on boy you mean I ain't got no helmet and you get to see me every time I'm on that court and the fans booing oh don't let me play away but I'm taking people bill I'm taking food off the sideline and man, Joe, I be doing all kind of stuff.

They just want to bust you down. Now you fall for the banana in the tailpipe where they tell you they promise you. to get them skins. They'll drop a bag on you. But you got to realize, dropping a bag on you, they got it. It ain't nothing to them. A guy that's making $50 ,000 a year, you ask him to take you and get a$600 meal, that's something. A guy that's making$10 ,000,$15 million a year, and he drop a$25 ,000, he buy you a$3 ,000,$4 ,000 bag, that ain't itch to him.

58:54Shannon Sharpe:You need to understand relativity. It's relative. but okay but i'll let you go here though but you're gonna find out hey i didn't hey i didn't i

1:00:03Joe Johnson:It's never been like that. It never has been. The game has always been the game. And it's up to you to be able to understand the game. If you don't, then you get lost in the sauce. And then at that point, they start passing around like a hot potato.

1:00:17Shannon Sharpe:Oh, man. I'm just saying. And once they find out you eating, of course. Hey, man, she eating. Of course. Of course, of course.

1:00:29Joe Johnson:Well, hey, you cooking, boy, are you hitting me?

1:02:10Joe Johnson:Hey, I got about 25, Joe. It's been a long time.

Pretty sure. But I'm saying with football, it's so many, y 'all. And I know cats that ran into some of the same work. You know what I mean? Joe, for some reason, they all attracted to the same work too. I know. Because they in the same – hey, Ocho, they in the same vicinity too now. If I go to a pond that's stocked with catfish, what the hell do I expect to catch? Catfish. I go to one of these nice ass bars and... What do you think?

What the hell do you expect her to like? She's in a place where there's nothing but high profile. about football, basketball, baseball, rappers, entertainers, high value, high earners. What is she supposed to like, leave there and just go talk to the local guy at the mall?

1:03:28Joe Johnson:She put herself - Come on now. Hey, Uncle Joe, you know they put themselves in that environment for a reason, huh? For sure.

1:03:35Shannon Sharpe:Hey, hey, hey, they throw that man catch on, they say I'm going to catch me one tonight. They gonna catch one too.

1:03:43Joe Johnson:They gonna catch one. Sometimes, depending on who do the catching, some hold on to a little longer than others. Yeah.

1:03:50Shannon Sharpe:Man, I had my homegirl told me, say, Shannon, it's just as easy to date a rich guy than a poor one. And given the choice, which one you think I'm taking?
