Second half 2025. All rights reserved. to honor our country on its 250th birthday. This can of Copenhagen goes out to those defending the free American soil that our tobacco has taken root in for over two centuries and counting. Here's to the calloused hands of freedom.

29:55Shannon Sharpe:Copenhagen, saluting American grit, proven since 1822. Warning, this product is not a safe alternative to cigarettes. Disagree on this one. Oh, children, excuse me. The Chiefs are in a surprising 0-2 start, and their offensive struggles cannot be attributed to absence of key players. ESPN Diane Graziano reported that the lack of continuity at the wide receiver position has created concerns in Kansas City. I get the sense that the Chiefs are frustrated by repetitive nature of this, the wide receiver room being decimated every year by injuries and other issues, but they expect to improve once Worthy is back and once Rice comes off suspension.

30:35Shannon Sharpe:uh kansas city has produced 30 just 38 combined points through two games ocho are you concerned about the chiefs well we talk about the same thing we talk about the same concerns we had last year with the cheese at the beginning of the season oh they keep dropping the ball oh they're not getting open oh they're not creating no separation i'm not concerned the only reason i'm not concerned with the 0-2 start by the cheese is listen every year it gets more and more difficult you know what to repeat, to get back to the Super Bowl. Teams are a little bit more familiar with what you'd like to do. They're familiar with your tendencies.

31:11I'm not concerned at all. And then we say, oh, Rasheed Rice is not available. I mean, it's a part of the game. There are a lot of teams that don't have to have receivers out. Hell, the Green Bay Packers got receivers out. Brother Watson is not playing. There are other teams that don't have some of their key players playing, but they're still finding ways to win. the Kansas City Chiefs with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid will find a way to win. Do they like the start that they have right now? Absolutely not. But when football matters most, which is after Thanksgiving, guess who's going to be in the hunt?

31:45It ain't pretty right now in September, and it's probably not going to be pretty in October. But when it matters most, they're going to be all right because they got 15.

31:53Shannon Sharpe:They got 15. But it gets harder and harder. it got to the point where Brady even couldn't overcome what they had in New England. He went to Tampa and people say, well, he won a new Superbowl when he went to Tampa. Did he not have better talent than what he left in New England? So Mike Evans was not better than what he had. Chris Godman was not better than what he had. They drafted Tristan worth. That defense was better than what he had. See, we keep basing on based on a history. And I agree with you that we look at what Patrick Mahomes, but we have to admit Buffalo look better. The charges look better.

32:27Shannon Sharpe:the ravens look better teams are getting better so to sit there and say you can't i don't believe i've never been one to believe well they did it in the past that means they can do it again no you got to evolve you have to get better and if you notice ocho is getting harder and harder for them and it's getting harder and harder for mahomes to overcome the lack of talent that he has because like you said okay we're down uh rasheed rice and worthy those are our two best receivers okay so that means now your third best receiver one of those or third fourth or fifth best has to go to number one spot and now you're getting guys playing like damn i was really only trying to play them for a special situation and now ocho they got to go out there and play 25 30 snaps a game where i was really only hoping to play them five to ten snaps a game the running game they can't run it ocho they they become one-dimensional and you know when it comes one-dimensional it gets really, really hard.

33:27Shannon Sharpe:It gets very difficult for you to just sit back there and throw the football because the team's going to come get you. And with that offensive line, you see the right tackle again. Getting penalties, false start. You left guard. Not what it needs to be. Now, I like the right tackle. They got the guy from Ohio State. He looks like he's going to be a keeper. We know what Trey Smith is. Trey Smith's going to get a hold and call the game. You go ahead and chalk it up. Yeah, he's going to give us one hold and call the game. So you already know that going in. You know, you're right, Tackle 74. Yeah, he's going to give us probably like, he's going to give us one holding call.

34:02Shannon Sharpe:He's going to give us two false stars. Yeah, he's going to get that. Right. You already know this thing. It's getting harder, Ocho. It gets harder because you remember now, remember how Brady and them jumped out the box and Brady won three and four years and then he went a whole decade before he won another one. Yeah. Yeah. I just don't see it. I just don't see it. I think Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, as creative as Andy Reid is, I think they're going to find a way to get done. They're going to find a way to get things done. They're going to find a way to hide some of the weaknesses that they have offensively right now.

34:39Obviously, it all starts with the running game. We have to find a way to run the ball. They got to get Kareem Hunt going. They got to get Pacheco going. I'm not sure what they have to do. Make Kareem Hunt five years younger?

34:53Shannon Sharpe:That's the only thing you can do. Like I said, Pacheco, I mean, maybe he hadn't been the same since he came off that injury last year, but he ain't the same. I mean, you see that. I mean, well, I'm not breaking. Chad, y 'all know, and I'm not breaking news to y 'all guys. Y 'all see how one-dimensional they are. And now when you're one-dimensional, they bring an extra guy and they trap Mahomes. You got to be able to keep. Hey, matter of fact, it don't even get no easy. Who they got next? No, they're on the road at the Giants, I think, on Sunday night or Monday night. So that means now they got to deal with Kayvon Thibodeau and Abdul-Carr to come off that edge.

35:33Oh. Hey. Hey. Yeah. It's a good chance they can start 0-3, depending on how rustling boys go.

35:43Shannon Sharpe:It's a great chance they can start 0-3. It's not a good, it's a great chance. Dang. But Ocho say he believes in the Chiefs? We're going to find out. only because they got 15. Only because they got 15. He's still playing. He's still playing. He's top five all time. He's still playing. He's top five all time. Therefore, I'm going to give him grace and him and Andy Reid being able to figure that. B. John Robinson finished fourth in the NFL in total scrimmage yard last season. Last week, B. John Robinson had a 143-yard outing and a win over the Vikings, his second most rushing yards in a game in his young career, and his third of 125-plus-yard performance of his career.

36:24Shannon Sharpe:Coach Kareem Hunt says he isn't taking Robinson for granted. He's definitely the best player in football, without a doubt. He's unbelievable. I love the kid. I love everything about him. I love watching him, the ball. I love his confidence. I love the demeanor. I love his mindset. I love the leadership. I love everything about him. Ocho, is B. John Robinson the best running back in the game? Listen, I love Raheem. I'm all for up and big up in your players, but the best running back in the game, absolutely not. Absolutely not. He's really good. He's on pace. He's going on the right spectrum to become one of the better running backs in the league.

37:03I mean, Chad, do you agree with me? Is he top five already? Has he unseated everyone else that has put in work before him? Is he better than Jameer Gibbs? Is he better than Montgomery and Saquon and Christian McCaffrey, even though he's been hurt, even though he has a – wait a minute now. He's really – he's really good. I'm not going to lie. He got some of the best feet in the game. He reminds me of my young brother, God damn, LeSean McCoy. His movement, his lateral movement, you know, being able to jump stop and make people miss, you know, right in the pocket, yes. But the best in the game – wait a minute, slow down, man.

37:42Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, I don't think he's passed Saquon. I don't think he's passed King Henry. if you want to put him in Gibbs, Jonathan Taylor, if you want to put – What? But, yeah, yeah. Now, he ain't – first of all, he ain't the best player. He ain't better than quarterback. So he ain't better than Josh Allen. He's not better than Lamar. So I think he meant – I think what he meant, and I hate to say it, you heard what the man said. He may be a running back. Yeah, that's what I was going to say. But that ain't what he said. He should have just said, I think he's the best running back because I guarantee you, if I say, I tell you what, you have to trade B.

38:17Shannon Sharpe:John Robinson, but you can get Lamar Jackson. You think he takes that? Okay, you can get, you got to trade B. John, but you'll get Josh Allen. You think he takes that? You got to trade B. John, but you get Patrick Mahomes. You think he takes that? Okay, that's what I'm saying. So now if you want to say running backs, me personally, I think he's phenomenal. But I wouldn't take him over Saquon. I wouldn't take him over King Henry. I'm not sure I'd take him over Jonathan Taylor. I don't know. Him and Gibbs, they came in about the same time, so they're close. But for me, when it comes to Saquon and King Henry, no, I think they top two.

39:00Shannon Sharpe:That's just me personally. Somebody else might have a big – somebody might say, I like Josh Jacobs, and I ain't going to fault you for that, but I'm not taking Jacobs over those big two. Jonathan Taylor, you say Gibbs, whomever, B. John, I'm not taking him over Derrick Henry and Saquon Barkley. That's just me. And listen, and I'm not hating. I'm just saying just based on what Coach said, he said best in the NFL. He said best player in the NFL. Best player. Listen, he's extremely explosive. He's extremely elusive. He's a very, very exciting running back to watch. Yes, but you are. And for him to go in that conversation as best player in the NFL, every time he touched the ball he has to have the type of impact like a ladanian thomason like a adrian peterson where every time they get the ball uncle you got to hold your breath because you ain't no telling what the hell finna happen that's when you when we talk about best like come on come on now he's i don't i don't think he's there yet but he's a phenomenal young player ocho the way he's really i think the thing is now he's more of a complete back than say some of those other guys.

40:08Shannon Sharpe:Now you look at Saquon, Saquon can catch the ball. That's really not with Derek Henry. They know we're bringing Justice Hill when they want to throw the ball, Ocho. You look at Jameer Gibbs, he'll stay in on some passing downs. He got good hands. B. John Robinson got good hands, but I think he's phenomenal. I mean, he can catch the ball. Kirsten McCaffrey can catch the ball. These are more like your dual threat guys, run and catch. Derek Henry is more of your old school, eye-back guy. Toss him, hand him the ball, and let him go to work and then on third down, if it's third and seven, eight, you're probably going to bring a different back in.

40:44And to be fair, based on B. John Robinson's skill set, he's on the trajectory of being a top five running back. He's on that. He's on that. He's definitely on that. But when we talk about best player in the NFL, I think of what Adrian Peterson did. I think of LaDainian Tomlinson. You know, I'm talking about Hall of Fame caliber type backs that can change the dynamic of a game from anywhere on the field.

41:12Shannon Sharpe:And I mean, it's rare that we even think about a running back in that capacity now, Ocho, because the quarterback they've taken the running count. I mean, we just we just back started back talking about the running back last year because of Saquon and Derrick Henry was doing what they do. Remember, you shouldn't you know, there are people say you shouldn't draft the running back in the first round. the running back has been devalued and now we're now we're throwing them right back into the uh the most value to the uh best player in the league conversation where for about a decade plus people weren't talking about the running back like we talked like we're talking about them last year and what we're currently talking about them now but i think the thing is now because it's become such a passing league because they protect the quarterback and the receiver so much and they don't protect the running back they actually they've harmed the running back because guess what Ocho, he can't lower his head anymore.

42:01Shannon Sharpe:Remember, you can't lower your head and drop the button on somebody. They've kind of been lean. We haven't got that called. We haven't got that called this year, but it's coming. Yeah. I'm like, so you wouldn't have had him just run, stayed up and just let everybody put their helmet in his chest. You're taught to run behind your pads. You got to. You got no choice. You got to. Ocho, Kyle Lemur posted a photo of him wearing a retro Virginia Tech Michael Vick jersey while posing with one of his two pit bulls. Murray took down the post after seeing online backlash. In no way, shape, form do I condone Animal Crew to your dogfighting.

42:36Shannon Sharpe:I apologize to anybody or whoever I affected with that. Yeah. Hey, Kyle? Hey, honest mistake. Honest mistake on his part. He probably wouldn't think about that. He probably wouldn't think about that. So a pit bull and Michael Vick. So you couldn't get anybody else's jersey? Michael Vick. think about it i'm gonna say it one more time michael vick i see i see we thinking about it you're not hearing me we thinking about it we understand it he wasn't thinking about it because he was thinking about it and remember the situation that happened when it did happen he wouldn't have done that that's a that's an honest mistake that that's an honest mistake because you you know better you know better if you understood wait a minute this happened years ago yeah he i mean this was like 2001 2007 2008 ish so how was how was kyle bird in i was kind of maybe maybe 11 he was maybe maybe 10 i don't know is he 27 28 so this was 17 probably 17 18 years ago do you think he even remembers because if you remembered he wouldn't have done that because okay you know what i'm the quarterback court face of the franchise i shouldn't do this because this is how they can view it yeah i think i think people are looking at it like bro of all the jerseys that you you got a you got a michael vick vatek jersey on and then the dog that you got are pit bulls ocho if it's not a pit bull i don't think anybody make a correlation if it's a german shepherd if it's a borbol it's a chihuahua it's a frenchy it's just that the big jersey and the pit bull that's what got you know what honestly i don't care what dog it was it wouldn't matter if It was a dog in general.

44:22You know how society is. Twitter Bob, they don't get him anyway. They could have been a Pomeranian. They going to link it to what you're doing taking a picture with a dog. And you got that. You know, it's unfortunate. Obviously, when we make mistakes, we will always be remembered by those mistakes. Always. Including Vic, including myself. You're absolutely right. It's what you do after a mistake.

44:48Shannon Sharpe:you're judged by your uh your most egregious mistake unfortunately that's a society that we live in and we understand that you live you learn and you don't make the same mistake twice and you move on so okay he said he said uh uh in no way he doesn't condone dog fighting which i believe he doesn't condone animal cruelty which i believe and uh he wanted to apologize so the greatest apology is change behavior i don't believe we'll see mr mr murray post something like this now he can post a dog because hell i remember when michael vick got a dog and people tried to make the man couldn't even get a dog well damn yeah i mean yeah that's good hey hey speaking of i know i know we don't talk politics on here and it's really in the platform for that well you saw what happened to our brother jimmy i saw that wow i saw that but i thought hold on what's the first amendment i thought oh never mind but yeah it listen it depends but do you understand how powerful that power structure is that pull all the strings?

45:47Okay, okay, okay, okay. I don't want to get into it. I don't want to get into it, but I just want to know. I peeped it.

45:54Shannon Sharpe:Hey, them people powerful. We headed down a slippery slope, Ocho. We headed down a slippery slope because I remember one time that people said, and they made fun of Joe Biden, and they made fun of George Floyd, and they made fun of a lot of blacks that got killed, and they made a lot of fun of a lot of people that did some things. and that's free speech that's free speech now it's an issue uh like you said i look it what it happened i mean and i you know but it's just boy we got boy we we're in some times right now boy these next day you got to be on your best behavior the next three years you got to be on your best you got i mean kids getting kicked out of school kids getting kicked out of school your passport getting redeemed and all this kind of other stuff i'm telling you yeah and some people that oh that ain't nothing and blah boy that that that's how it's that's how it starts start what you do is that you so distrust with your institutions that's the first and foremost thing now the only truth is i'm giving it to you the only truth that you're be able to get it from ocho and i and then you so distrust and then i start carving away at certain freedoms that you enjoy yeah hey hold on hold on and you know what some of the freedoms they're carving away at you're not really paying attention to it because it doesn't it doesn't affect you just yet but they always say history always repeats itself because it always repeats itself and it starts very small because the the what they're carving away and we're going to move on.

47:31Shannon Sharpe:What they're taking away, this last generation didn't have to fight for. Ocho, let's go ahead. Ocho, see, when you don't have to fight for something. Right, right, right. But see, people, we grew up in a time, and my mom and grandmother and things, they was in that. They remember segregation, and they remember the civil rights, and they remember the Fair Housing Act, and they remember the interracial they remember those things we take some of this generation take it for granted they don't remember voting rights because they've always been had to vote so now as they start to strip things away that you didn't have to fight for you don't miss it yeah until you don't have it yeah yeah and listen i i you know what i i always I always love the message.

48:23I always love the fight, but people never forget. They don't understand the power struck in the ecosystem and what you're fighting against. You can't even see it. So you don't know what to swing at. You're not, you're not hearing me. I hear you. I know. I'm saying it. No, you want to fight the fight, but you don't know.

48:40Shannon Sharpe:When you're moving, like I do trips, don't always come together weeks in advance. Sometimes production shoots, interviews, or something I've got to travel for on a short notice. Like the time when I had the last minute trip to Denver and everything came together fast. Once it was locked in, I had to be ready to go. That's where Amazon Prime can make a difference.

Let me grab me a bull real quick. Odell Beckham Jr. isn't ready to call a career just yet. In an interview with Complex, OBJ shut down retirement rumors and said he's the healthiest he's been in a long time. Retiring is not happening. I just came from the gym. This is the first time in a long time I can, like, pop up out of bed or if a dog was about to chase me, I could take off running. I'm good, and I know I can play in this league right now.

53:37Shannon Sharpe:Ocho? were you yeah obj says he's not ready to retire just yet he says he's the healthiest he's been in a long time and yeah and he says uh uh uh this is the first time in a long time he could like pop up out of bed and if a dog was chasing him he could take off i'm good i know i can play in this league yeah i like it i like it now coming to play in the league that's it's all situations yes What team will put you in situations that are advantageous where you can do what you can do? That's the hard part, huh? Because all the teams have their number ones and number twos. What situation can you go to?

54:16There are 32 teams. What teams can you go to that will put you in situations where you can help them offensively? That's what matters. It's just not about going anywhere. It's just not about being on the roster. Somewhere you can be happy, you can be somewhat productive, and help a team win. I know one team that can help right now. We could help. And they struggling with receivers, dropping the balls, having issues. Going down there with 15 in Kansas City. What are we talking about? Come on now. Yeah, I mean, you got one sitting right there. I mean, I'm not an officer coordinator. I'm not a scout.

54:53I'm just understanding he might not be the Odell Beckham of the New York Giants. He might not be the Odell Beckham that we're used to seeing, who made the spectacular one-handed catch. Odell Beckham, if given the opportunities, he can still make plays. That's all it comes down to, opportunities. Sometimes they think we wash. When we're really not washed, we just don't get the opportunities we used to get because of the injury. They see you one way after you get hurt. You get hurt twice, they view you in a whole different light.

55:22Shannon Sharpe:And then when you start bouncing around, team, Ocho. Yeah. And I think the thing is, he's going to have to change his mindset, you see, like D-Hop. D-Hop's like, I'm not getting 60 plays a game. I'm going to get 10, 15 plays, and I got to make each play count. And so that's the kind of the way you have to shift your focus because you're not the man. You're not. At best case, you'll be third. D-Hop has accepted the fact with all those all pros, with all those pro bowls, D-Hop except is Rasheed Rice and is Bateman. Then it's me. yeah I mean you understand it but see you and I said you're saying that but you know the athlete the competitive in you when you're out there you're not saying that you're like man I can still make these plays I'm just as good as I am yeah but nah I don't work like that you and I know that it doesn't work like that one thing you learn once you get that up in age and the young bulls come in especially most of the young bulls you talk about and the names you call they didn't already got their paydays and there's a pecking order.

56:30It's about understanding that pecking order. That means D-Hop going to the Ravens. You understand? It's Zay Flows and his Bateman. And then, hold on, even before D-Hop, it's goddamn Mark Andrews. It was likely.

56:43Shannon Sharpe:It was likely. It likely got hurt. So you know I'm third. If I'm lucky, I'll be third. More than likely, I'm probably going to be the fourth or the fifth option. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And you have to be willing to accept that. and that's the thing that if I could tell Odell, I was like, Odell, are you going to be okay being the fourth or fifth option? Now, fourth or fifth option, fourth or fifth option don't get 10 targets, Ocho. Fourth or fifth option don't get, you know. And let me tell you something. It's about doing the most with the targets you do get because look at D-Hop last week. What, one for one?

57:16The week before he caught at Buffalo. I need all that. And you know what happened? When coaches see that on film, you know they're going to cook up something for him again.

57:25Shannon Sharpe:They always try to put him in a situation where he can be successful. Yep. Every time we throw it to 10, we get a touchdown, and we're going to cook up something. We're going to add something to you in that first 15. Don't worry about it. Just hold tight.

57:41Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, the Washington, D.C. City Council gave a second final approval to a new Washington Commander Stadium at the grounds of the ORFK, voting 11-2 in favor. The$3.8 billion project will include a 65 ,000-seat stadium and a development of the local area. The commanders have been playing in Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland since 1997. The team played at RFK Stadium located in Washington, D.C. from 1961 to 1996. The team will now return to the old site of RFK Stadium. The old building is in the process of being demolished and a brand-new stadium built. I played in the old RFK. obviously I played in the I played in the new what was that stadium called?

58:27Shannon Sharpe:It was FedEx Field I think it was called FedEx Field if I'm not mistaken They had grass? Well yeah, even the old RFK had grass. Yeah, yeah, yeah the old RFK was grassed also I mean we played them in 90, they were good as a matter of fact I think we played them in 92 they had just won the Super Bowl in 90 in 91.

58:55Shannon Sharpe:I think it was 92 we played them, Ocho. But they were really good. They were really good. Really good. Really good. Yeah.

59:05Shannon Sharpe:But, I mean, you see the Broncos. I think what's happening, Ocho, get these new stadiums. I want to get a Super Bowl. The Broncos are going to rebuild a stadium downtown with a retractable roof. roof Super Bowl. Wait, downtown? Downtown Denver, yeah. That's a whole lot of traffic, huh? Hey, when you got that kind of money and you're going to fund the project yourself, and they've seen so many Super Bowls, Super Bowl went to Minnesota. The Super Bowl went to New York. We've seen Super Bowls go to cold weather places. So not only that, okay, draft. We see the draft's going to be in Pittsburgh next year, Ocho.

59:46Shannon Sharpe:We saw the draft last year. we was there in Green Bay. So they're trying to do things to lure, have a draft here, have a Super Bowl here. Because guess what? Next year, 60 is in San Francisco because 50 was in San Francisco. That was the Bronco played Carolina. 60 back in San Francisco. Then you back at SoFi. Then you at Atlanta, Mercedes-Benz. You see the new stadiums, Ocho? You see? Levi, SoFi. Mercedes Benz you see the direction that they're going in yeah yeah yeah I think that's a play Josh Harris group I think that's the owner the majority owner of the Washington Commanders I think that's kind of the direction that they're playing in Ocho excuse me playing heading in so 3.8 million 3.8 billion dollar project with a 65 seat stadium and a development so they'll have shopping things and things of that nature down there.

1:01:35Shannon Sharpe:The nightcap staff have made a slip of their picks and we could either play their slip or make some changes. Their slip of head of Thursday night football is Josh Allen more than 29.5 rush yards. I'm changing that. I ain't checking y 'all on that. Josh Allen's going to give me at least 30. I ain't got to go but.5 rush yards? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going that for sure. I ain't fooling with the staff. What you think? Did you like that? You think I'm good?

1:02:10Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, yeah, yeah. You should be all right. James Cook, 24 and a half receiving yards. Take the staff or go higher. Because you know James Cook normally catch one or two screens a game, Mocho. Yeah. And at the backfield. He'll catch him at the backfield and get jiggy with it too. So.5 more.

1:03:13It's a trap game. People don't even realize it. It's a trap game. It's early in the season. The bill's flying high. For the Dolphins' morale in general, they're going to win this game. I'm telling you. All right? Two are going to throw three touchdowns.

1:03:30Shannon Sharpe:See, I hate this. I hate this because sometimes he'd be getting them empty calorie stats and touchdowns. They down by 30 points, and he is still in the fourth quarter throwing the ball. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. 1.5. Damn.

Most of the good corners that we're used to seeing, they will later on as the season progresses, they'll be up there.
