In short

NFL injury and coaching hot takes plus playoff/offense talk, centered on the Cowboys, Falcons, and Eagles; also includes a broader Q&A on other teams (Lions/Ravens/Bengals) and a discussion of whether Micah Parsons should get a tribute welcome.

Guests (hosts/participants)

Tab Ramos (Inside American Soccer) appears only in ad reads; the main sports discussion is between “Zach” and “Ocho” (no further guest credentials given in transcript).

Key claims

  1. Cowboys offense is in trouble: CeeDee Lamb, Tyler Booker, and Cooper Beebe are injured; Jerry Jones considers injury reserve for Lamb.
  2. Cowboys must rely on “next man up” (George Pickens, Turpin) and improved running to replace Lamb’s production.
  3. Jerry Jones says no to a Micah Parsons tribute/welcome video; hosts argue Parsons will still “welcome” the opponent with a big game.
  4. Falcons firing WR coach Ike Hilliard after a 30-0 loss is “befuddling”; blame is framed as quarterback/overall offense, not receivers coach.
  5. Eagles offense (Kevin Petula’s playcalling) is defended as a system built for Jalen Hurts; “evolve” talk is dismissed since the scheme fits.

Notable examples

  • Cowboys schedule cited (Packers, Jets, Panthers, Commanders, Broncos, Raiders, Eagles, Chiefs, Lions).
  • Falcons: Drake London, Mooney, Kyle Pitts, Bijan Robinson; Penix Jr. had two interceptions and only one TD pass so far.
  • Q&A: Lions “complete demolition” vs Ravens (7 sacks on Lamar; 224 rushing yards).

I love days like these at the pool, but my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis can sometimes take me out of the moment. I'm ready to make a splash with clearer skin Thanks to SkyRizzy, Rizinkizumab RZA SkyRizzy is a prescription-only injection For adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy At four months, most people saw 90 % clearer skin When measured from head to toe And many were even 100 % plaque-free People also saw significant improvement In psoriasis symptoms of pain, redness, itching, and burning Don't use if allergic to SkyRizzy Serious allergic reactions, increased infections Or lower ability to fight them may occur Before treatment, get checked for infections and tuberculosis.

Ask your doctor about SkyRizzy, the number one dermatologist prescribed biologic and psoriasis. Visit SkyRizzy.com or call 1-866-SKYRizzy to learn more.

2:51That's us. 270 hours with zero complaining. They train under the hood. They train down in the pit.

2:58Shannon Sharpe:Down here. 270 hours means their training's legit. It's the smart choice for smart folk who care for their steed. So trust the instant oil change that starts with Valvoline. Valvoline instant oil change. Change wisely. Three games into the season, Dallas Cowboys are down three starters on the offense for multiple weeks. CeeDee Lamb could miss three to four weeks with a left high ankle sprain. Right guard Tyler Booker, the Cowboys' first-round pick, is looking at four to six weeks absence due to a high ankle sprain. Dallas lost center Cooper Beebe with two broken bones in his right foot that landed him on injury reserve.

3:40Shannon Sharpe:Jerry Jones said today that injury reserve is a consideration for CeeDee. Ocho? Yeah. talk to me it ain't looking good for the home team I mean was it looking good when they were healthy I mean Jerry said he said yesterday they're a playoff team he believed they're a playoff team but a lot don't care who tell it absolutely I'm hoping for the sake of the offense I like what Pickens gives them as a deep threat I'm not sure if they'll put him in the same positions that CeeDee was. I don't know if he knows all the positions that CeeDee is able to do, but they can put him in the slot, put him in motion, find ways to be creative and get him the ball.

4:30To get some of those big chunk plays, the running game has to be effective. The running game has no choice but to be effective at this point because you lost one of the most dynamic players in the NFL at the receiver position, a top five player. You have to be able to get that production from somewhere. somewhere somebody got to step up

4:50Shannon Sharpe:the problem that you have is that you was counting on CD to be there and Pickens help him out now that you remove CD who's going to help Pickens out Turpin going to step up okay

5:08they're going to have to find they're going to have to get it from they're going to have to get that production from multiple people if that's the case

5:17Shannon Sharpe:I just

5:21Shannon Sharpe:Cowboys Got some Gonna have to have Gonna have to make Some decisions Especially if they don't Make the playoffs Ocho what do we do Are we gonna give Dak 65 million Are we gonna give him Another five year deal For 300 million Ocho What do we What do we do Well actually In in Dak's case There are no other options So Dak is in a good position Actually Dak is in a great position There are no other options So you have You have no choice. I'm just being honest. How many games you think the Cowboys win? More or less than eight? I give them more than eight. I give them more than eight. Less than? You think so?

6:10Shannon Sharpe:Give me a Cowboys schedule. You down on the Cowboys. Well, we're going to find a... I went with a high on them.

6:20Shannon Sharpe:I've seen this movie. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, I've... Even if they have different actors. Even if they put different actors in there. And you've all seen all the Godfathers. You know how it's going to end. Even all the Predators. They changed Predators. It started with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Then it went with Danny Glover. They got all these. But you already know how it's going to end. Oh, yeah. Even with...

6:46Shannon Sharpe:we get we well we pull up the cowboy schedule see uh they got the packers at home then they go to the jets then they're at the panthers then they got the commanders at home at the broncos at the car uh home to the cardinals at raiders eagles at home Chiefs at home. Is that Thanksgiving Day? Is the Chiefs on Thanksgiving? The 27th? Yeah. At Lions. Lions going to drop like 1 ,200 points on them. You know what I'm trying to do? They might get eight. They might get eight. I'm going to go with 10. Oh, hell no. I'm going to go with 10. Listen, if they can get eight, they can get 10. if they can get eight they can get six you put it like that right where you gonna get the plays from Ocho I just told you next man up Turpin got to come to play baby George Pickens got to come to play

8:03I can't Williams who

8:09Shannon Sharpe:what was the guy they got from the guy they got from uh carolina they traded mingo mingo mingo i mean m-i-n-g-o-m-i-n-g-o mingo was his name nope nope nope it's just hard it's just hard Ocho because defensively if I had some if you told me say Shannon you got something you can hang your hat on with it what am I okay Ocho when I come home and I take my hat off what am I gonna hang my hat on am I gonna hang it on defense am I gonna hang it on the offense now special teams Aubrey yeah he's nice he's nice he can win you some games if you can keep it close. If the game's close. He can win you some games.

9:02Shannon Sharpe:But when you're giving up 38, that ain't close. Eh. Damn, man. And they don't rush the passer. Their quarterback is under the... Oh, man. Mm-mm. I don't see it, Ocho. I just don't. You're saying eight games, huh? I think 18. I think eight. All right. Oh, it doesn't seem like there'll be a welcome back video for Micah Parsons like they have for Ezekiel Elliott in 23 or nothing in return of the Emmett Smith in 2003. I don't think that's appropriate this way. Emmett was different story, but that's not to diminish Micah. I think Micah's got enough welcome out there and we just need to show we've got antidotes for that.

9:47Shannon Sharpe:Are you surprised? Absolutely not. Neither am I. Absolutely not. I mean, obviously, you know, especially with the way it ended, they're not going to have any type of welcome anything. But Mike is going to welcome them. Yeah. We're going to welcome them. He's going to do that. And Mike might have the game of his goddamn life. Oh, he is. He might have the game of his life. He's going to lie up on Terrence Steel, too. Eh. Eh. he gonna have the game of his life I don't want him to have a three and a half three and a half that's it? three and a half strip sack bump scoop and score damn that's what he should do that's what I want him to do Jerry tried to diminish the man so yeah he talked about him talked about him better a bit when he left yeah for sure Ocho Matt LaFleur wasn't happy with the undefeated talk from his team, which looks like it had been started by left tackle Rasheed Walker starting a 2-0 start.

10:55Shannon Sharpe:LaFleur said, I said it a million times to you guys. I don't think, obviously, I've said it enough to our team. The goal is to go 1-0 every week. And it ticks me off when we start talking about things outside of the next game. Things that are way down the road, like focus on what... focus on keep the focus on the present, on the now, and worry about getting better each and every day. Ocho, we know everybody says you know it's it's very cliche it's cliche it's a little cliche it's am i saying that right cliche but but but if it's past it's it's just cliche i know it sounds very cliche right i'll let that lady say a quarter of a bit uh 200 she was trying to say somebody's bomb was that 250 ,000 killed her.

11:47Shannon Sharpe:Cliche killed me. Yeah. It does sound cliche that we just say we take one game at a time. We take one day at a time. But Ocho, but Ocho, but after two, but after two, come on now. I can see we way down the road, Ocho. We done got 13. We got 14 wins. We're 14 and 0. And we right there. But you, bro, the second week of the season, you told me we can go undefeated? Hey, now listen, it's all about having positive energy. It's all about having that mentality. Listen, coaches, coaches think that one game at a time stuff. The player do too. Obviously, you know, he's excited. He's happy. Based on the way we perform today, I feel we can go undefeated.

12:32Is it likely going to happen? No, because each game

12:36Shannon Sharpe:is different. Now think about it. Now how he look now. He's talking about undefeated and you got beat by Cleveland.

12:48any given Sunday thank you

12:51Shannon Sharpe:that's why you keep it on the present Sunday we talk about see what you just said any given Sunday but you talking about 15, 16 Sundays from now yeah you right but sometimes you got to be careful what you say you got to be careful of what you say especially when you're not the one that controls the wins and the losses and I get it I think they were feeling really good with how well they dominated the Lions they felt really really good yeah and then they had another week who did they play the second game of the season and they felt really good oh no they lost to Cleveland yeah no they didn't they lost to Cleveland they weren't two they were two and oh they were two and oh they beat somebody commanders remember they got the commanders but oh joe man people are the hardest thing to do is to win an nfl football game it's not easy very difficult and you talk about that's why in 100 plus year history that's why it's only been done once yeah you go back in the super bowl era it's only been done one time in the super bowl era if it was easy i mean tommy tommy did it.

14:06Shannon Sharpe:Yes. Yeah, they almost did it. Think about it. And they got, and you the pressure, because now all the team got to do is get you to the deep. You don't blow them out in the first half. Or you don't go to the fourth quarter and you down by 14, 17 points. The Giants, hey, hold up. Damn. As a matter of fact, we up. Yeah. If we down, we up. get tired and tighter yeah tired and tighter yeah next day you know man i'm constipated i need some ko pick today i need some middle magnet i need something and you and especially when you've been winning these games easily yeah now all of a sudden don't show you in a dog fight we had had to be in a dog fight in a long time what's that yeah what is that like?

15:03Shannon Sharpe:The play calling change. The coaches get nervous. Some of the things you would normally call when you're winning and you're in a dogfight. You be a little bit more cautious. It's different.

15:20Shannon Sharpe:We won with our last game. We won about 17 games in a row. We won our last game against the Chargers and then we won We're a wild card team, so we got a home game. So that's two. We went on the road to Kansas City, three. Went on the road to Pittsburgh, four. Let's see, one. We won the Super Bowl, five. So we won 18 games in a row. You know, started with the last game of the regular season, went through the playoffs, and then we won the first 13 games. And then we ended up, I think we ended up losing like 20 to 16 to the Giants. And then we lost again. But it wasn't like, man, we can go undefeated.

16:09Shannon Sharpe:Like, it didn't even cross my mind. And I know everybody's like, man, I didn't want to lose. I tried to win because I didn't want to come in. I kind of like not coming in until Wednesday, seeing you guys until Wednesday. It's one thing to think it on. but if you understand the NFL, if you understand the games week to week, the chance of going undefeated is slim to none. It's hard, man. It's very difficult. One bad game. One bad game, old y 'all. I mean, and the Giants were terrible that year. I think the Giants might have won five games that year. Might have won five games. Yeah. We dilly-dallied around and, you know, TD was under the weather.

16:51Shannon Sharpe:I mean, he had an outstanding game. I think TD ran for like 130, 140. Yeah. We took the lead late. I mean, they would lead them. We took the lead late. Them juggers go 87 yards in three plays. Right down the field. I'm like, what the hell?

17:12Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, this is a good lesson. You don't look, you know, you look. What is in front of me? That's what I worry about, you know. And the thing is, well, Mike did a great job. We put one game up. We didn't have all the other, all of you, some teams have the whole schedule up. It was who we was playing that week. That was the only thing that we could see. That's it. That was the only thing that, you know, hey, we got a 16-round fight. Round one, we won. Round two, we won. And that's how we approached it. Right. But yeah, like, we definitely, I don't remember thinking about, when you're moving like I do, trips don't always come together weeks in advance.

17:48Shannon Sharpe:Sometimes production shoots, interviews, or something I 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.

21:19Wow.

21:20Shannon Sharpe:The Falcons fire wide receiver coach Ike Hilliard one day after being routed by the NFC rivals Carolina Panthers. Offensive game coordinator TJ Yates will assume – TJ Yates, that's the quarterback? Do I need a quarterback for the Texans? Will assume Hilliard's duties per the team. Offensive coordinator Zach Robinson will call plays from the sideline moving forward. Robinson called plays from the coach's booth since he joined the team in 2024. Hey, I'm confused. is that supposed to be a distraction of some sort what's the point of what's the point of firing the receiver coach I don't know the quarterback played terrible yeah some some I mean that that doesn't make any sense to me especially this early in the season I think that name's time for me yeah I I don't get that I don't I don't know maybe that was something internally that was going on.

Read the full transcript

22:25But I don't know.

22:26Shannon Sharpe:If you're shaking things up, I don't understand how to put it. So what? Guys running the wrong routes? I mean, what was going on? They got into an argument? The coordinator and the position coach or the head coach and the position coach got into it? I agree with you, Ocho. This don't seem right to me. It might have been something like that. It might have been something like that. It had to be some issues going on where somebody might have been arguing or other things. Because, I mean, find anybody week three? Come on now. Come on now. The Panthers blew out the Falcons 30-0. Michael Penix Jr. had his worst game of his career, young career, throwing two interceptions.

23:04Shannon Sharpe:He hasn't thrown a touchdown to a receiver or a tight end this season. In fact, he has only one touchdown pass this season. That's the B. John Robinson. Ochoa, I mean, look, we've all had receiver coaches. I'm just trying to figure out how much can a receiver coach be responsible for the offense. He's not. He's not. He's not responsible for that. Absolutely not. He has one job to do. That's the coach receivers. Make sure you get from point A to point B as fast as you can and catch the goddamn ball. That's it. That's all he can do. And make sure you're well prepared knowing the game plan and what you got to do.

23:47yeah I'm shocked that's why that's why I know it had to be something else something must have went on that sideline that or maybe behind closed doors where it didn't sit well and they let brother but brother here you go the the great I just mentioned I got a night too when we saw about the Gators yeah I'm gonna tell you this there's gonna be a lot of other people fired that

24:09Shannon Sharpe:quarterback don't start playing better. Oh, yeah. I hear you might have been the first to go, but let that quarterback play better. Quarterback coach. The offensive coordinator. Yeah. Matter of fact, Mr. Blank going. Now you got me curious. I want to know why he was fired. I'm finna be nosy. I'm finna be nosy. Because we thought the Falcons were going to be good. I'm not saying – not for a second, Ojo. I thought they were going to the Super Bowl, but I thought they would be better than what they were last year. You look at the weapons that they got. They got Mooney and they got Drake London. Drake London.

24:55Kyle Pitts.

24:56Shannon Sharpe:Kyle Pitts. Ray McLeod. Ray McLeod. They got B. John Robinson. They got Algier. They got a nice little squad, offensively. Good weapons. With those weaponry? You can't get shut out with those referee. Nah. But if your quarterback played like some stir fry, you can't. Yeah. He played bad. Late with the – bro, you know you – bro, how you going to be on this side looking at this half of the field, then all of a sudden come back and throw to the flat blind? Nah, you can't do that. That's going the other way. That's going the other way every time. If anything, you read one and two. if one and two ain't there then you go to the flat right away because if you take any more time than that the corner they was they was in two the corner he dragged he ain't go he ain't going nowhere anyway no he ain't got he ain't got nothing to threaten him deep so why would he go deep exactly exactly it sure wasn't so yeah i i don't get i don't i don't get this one this This move befuddles me because I've never heard, like I said, maybe something happened.

26:07Shannon Sharpe:We don't know all the intricacies of what transpired on. Something had to have happened. Ain't no way you believe that you got shut out 30 to nothing and that responsibility falls on the receivers coach. The receivers coach? I might have cussed somebody out now. He might have cussed out the office coordinator. Okay, now maybe that makes sense. Mm-hmm. Probably taking a four - Even if he did curse him out after two weeks, I mean, after three weeks, I mean, this is where we are right now? Yeah. So now you're saying we're in a panic mode. Yeah. You set us up for panic when we shouldn't be panicked.

26:50Shannon Sharpe:You should be calm. Yeah, you're right. Shoot, I'm nosy. I just text Ray Ray. What happened, boy? I'm nosy yeah this is this is I'm surprised by this I didn't think Atlanta was a Super Bowl contending team but I did think they would be much better than what they did what they showed last year and it's not a good look Ocho when the guy that you know your starter in week three you already had to put him on the you had to say nah we've seen enough that's not good nah and you let him go out on the sword too yeah for sure you let him go out on the sword especially once you've already made that move that you are our quarterback of the future there's no reason that Kirk Cousins should be going in that game none at all could not Cousins believe that he got a chance to get back in there basically and he's a good and Kirk is a good sport for actually going in the game

27:57Shannon Sharpe:he is I mean what I mean hey first cousins ain't trying to give him no money back why am I gonna get you know conduct detrimental by not going back into the game and they get take some of my money I'm gonna get all this money you know how much cousins is made oh yeah I ain't getting y 'all none of that back 330 is some change yeah I ain't giving y 'all none of that back I'm gonna get all that and matter of fact y 'all still owe me about 10-12 next year gonna get that too might get some more.

28:28Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, this makes no sense, Ochoa. Look, like I said, we didn't think the Falcons were going to be world beater, but we saw some of the promise that they showed last year at the end of the season when Pennix came in. Guys were getting the ball and, you know, so much, you know, talking to Kyle, he seemed very excited. Yeah. As a matter of fact, when we had the tour, well, that was last year when Raheem, we talked to Raheem. But we still thought that they were going to be good. We thought they were going to be really good this year. Pennix was talking about, he's looking for Kyle. We got Drake London, we got Mooney, and we got Ray Ray, and we got some weapons.

29:08Shannon Sharpe:We got Bijan, who's a dual threat. He can catch it. We can run it. X, Y, Z, Algier, good power back. this move makes no sense to me. At all.

29:26Shannon Sharpe:Conor's running back, James Conor, will undergo surgery on his foot and will miss the rest of the 2025 season. How big of a loss is this, Ocho? It's a big loss. It's a big loss. Marvin Harrison Jr. didn't have a very, very good game. You got to have a problem with the drops. You got the yips right now, Ocho. Now you got Connor out. He's gone. He's your bell cow. Now that put more pressure on Kyler Murray. More pressure on Kyler Murray. Knowing Marvin Harrison Jr., he going to bounce back. He going to bounce back. All it is, Uncle, you have games like this. Hell, I've had, okay, I haven't had a game like this, but I've had games where I've dropped the ball before.

30:06And all it is, going back to practice, looking the ball in, starting over like you're a little kid. looking the ball in every time, find the laces, catch the laces, don't take your ass out the ball, make sure you got it, secure it, and then just go.

30:22Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. And get yourself back. You think he's trying to do too much, Ocho. Yeah, that's it. Taking his eyes off the ball. That's all it was. And it's easy, too. The most difficult passes to catch are the ones that's wide open. Where you wide open, man. You take your ass off the ball trying to make a play before you secure it. That's all. Because he's wide open, and he know the guy going to be coming at a high rate of speed. So he's like, man, I made one move, and you made the move, and the ball's on the ground. So it don't matter if you made a move, made a miss. Right. Yeah, it's tough. Yeah, James Conner, he's their bell cop.

30:57Shannon Sharpe:I think he went to the Pro Bowl last year, runs hard, can catch the ball out of the backfield, but he's really their bell cop running back. I don't know who his backup is, but it puts more emphasis on, as you mentioned on Cali and that passing game. Right.

31:15Shannon Sharpe:It's tough. I mean, you hate to see a guy, you know, because, you know, we've been there. We know we put in to make sure we try to stay as healthy as we possibly can once the season starts. And here we are, you know, three weeks into the season and we're done for the year. Yeah. That's crazy. Done for the year. man that's that's only that's happened I mean I I broke my collarbone in week four and I was done for the year and I was miserable damn huh boy you done broke boy you done broke everything Jesus I have fractured my eye socket and missed the last three games of the season dislocated my elbow missed four games of the season sprained a knee ligament hey listen if I played with you when none of that happened if we was on the same team you wouldn't have had no injuries your shoulders would have been straight your knees, your ankles, all that the ankles you had to keep getting them ankles shot up wouldn't have been no problem you would have been straight man, my shoulders man, I just caught a pass and rest your soul Dave Doris and I caught it separated my shoulder when I fell on this one and then he fell on top of this one and separated the other one both of them yeah I would have popped the boy right back in place for you on the sideline pop the back take this tour it off put this harness on and you good to go nah I ain't wear no harness but I just that was like the last preseason game and then I missed practice shot the shoulders up that Sunday yeah played as long as I could and then made a I'm trying to think I cracked back on somebody.

33:02Oh, no, no. I forgot you took Ronnie Lott.

33:05Shannon Sharpe:Yep. That thing went numb. It was a wrap. That thing was hanging out the bone. And you hit that helmet like this? Oh, I couldn't do that. I couldn't even do that. Hey, I was like, oh. Come get me. Come get me. I said, what's Greek? Steve Antonopoulos was out trying to, what is it, Sharpie? I said, Greek, I'm done. He said, can you rate? Mm-mm.

33:34Shannon Sharpe:He's like, Sharpie, can you rate? No. I'm going to tell you before you even ask, the answer is no. Right. Can you squeeze my hand? No. Can you rate? No. So, Ocho, I'm just going ahead and Greek. I'm going to prepare you for everything that you're going to ask me. I can't do it. The answer is already no. I can't do it. Yeah. Can you push my hands out? Ocho, you know, push my hands out like this. Yeah. Can you push your hands in? I can't do none of that. Yeah, I imagine. So I just feel bad because, man, you put so much time in that. Then I fractured my orbital bone, Ocho, and so they – For a week, they had my eye closed, sold my eyelids shut, had to sit up.

34:25Shannon Sharpe:Oh, man, it was – Oof. Damn. And you're going to talk about I need to be, man, please. Who? What happened? No, you're talking about, man, you got to live. You got to do some adventure. Man, I ain't trying to have nothing else broke at my age. You do. The stuff we're going to do, the stuff that we're going to do that's adventurous is not stuff that's going to cause you to re-injure anything that's happened to you. I'm going to be doing all the dangerous stuff. You're just going to be there for moral support. Okay. That's all. can I uh can I like video can I watch from here nah nah we supposed to be we like Tom and Jerry man you gotta be out in the field with me okay I can see Jordan nah nah Jordan the cameraman I know that's why I'm gonna see Jordan and Jordan can send it back to me I can be watching like yeah that's a good shot there Joey keep it on there it's so much stuff it's so much stuff that is untouched I'm telling you when it comes to creating content that we can do that nobody else is doing we can go hang gliding we go deep sea diving when do we have time to do that in the off season okay nightcap the adventures of Uncle Ocho Man, we had about 100 ,000, 200 ,000 people watching, man.

36:02Shannon Sharpe:Mm-mm. Yeah, come on, man. Eagle's big dom was fine to whopping 70. When you're moving like I do, trips don't always come together weeks in advance.

40:08Shannon Sharpe:5 ,000 for texting from the bench area. Making the fine even more noteworthy as it happened during week three preseason game against the Jets. Per the report, the Eagles appealed the fine. It was denied. Hold on. Who was texting? Big Dom. You know the big guy with the glasses? Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Are we texting on this phone? Yep. Well, damn. with dormant security why is he being fine for protection on the sideline because you can't protect from the sideline no fault areas on the sideline and you can't text during the game okay you know you know who started that well they finished it

40:54hey i'll never forget that boy i was texting in the middle of the game what that was funny boy that was funny well we didn't have I'm trying to

41:05Shannon Sharpe:yeah I think texting might have came out like a couple of years like right around when I I didn't know how to text until 2005 right what you had Blackberry or two Star Tech Star Tech the little flip yeah yeah listen I got so excited when I had Twitter when I first got Twitter I was tweeting on the sideline that cost me $25 ,000 well see they done boosted it up now at$75 ,000 inflation inflation

41:48Shannon Sharpe:Donovan McNabb went on a Philly radio station this morning to speak on what he's seen from Kevin Petula's offense so far the thing is that they don't trust Jalen with this coordinator that we have it seems to ride the wave of what kellen moore established later last season to me it doesn't start with your mvp quarterback and it should i agree it seemed like to me ocho when they got desperate and they couldn't run the ball now they put the ball in his hand out of desperation yeah i mean i wouldn't call it desperation I wouldn't call it desperation they have a certain offense where they ask Jalen Hurts to do what's asked of him and not much outside of that and he's going to get that yeah turn around and hand the ball off and then when we fall behind by double digit points we're going to allow you to throw it bingo and he's good at both even though they don't ask him to do it as much as they ask other quarterbacks to do it and those offenses that they run right I'm talking about the Patriots the damn Eagles offense is run a certain way.

42:54It's built a certain way. It's not built like any other team. It's not built like the Green Bay Packers. It's not built like the Lions. What they ask of Jalen Hurst in that system and the system that they run is perfect for him. Now, if you need me to throw the ball, hell, I could go out there and do that too.

43:10Shannon Sharpe:But at some point in time, Ojo, you're going to have to evolve. I mean, wait, hold on. What's the point? The Eagles are 3-0. What do you want them to evolve to? No, but I'm saying. Right. Everybody, you're going to have to evolve because people think the way you won the Super Bowl last year is the way you can win it this year. And it's not like that. It's not. It's not. But you got to understand, huh? Depending on how teams play you, depending on what they decide to take away, that's what you choose to do because your quarterback has proven he can do both. Hell, it's easy. I can hand it off. If you want me to hand it off to goddamn Saquon, I can do that.

43:47Well, hell, if you're going to stack nine in the box, well, hell, I can kill you on the outside using AJ and Smitty.

43:52Shannon Sharpe:Yes. Pick your poison. Which one you want because I can do both. But yes, what I'm saying is that this was out of desperation. Oh, okay, okay. Oh, they didn't have a choice. That's my point. Right. And I don't know what Donovan's thinking, but I'm saying you probably could have prevented this from happening. Yeah. is that they know that you don't want Jalen Hurst to throw the ball. So we're going to stop Saquon. Right. But, you know, that all comes down to Petula. That all comes down to Petula and they've got them play calling. And, hey, let's go into this game this week. Let's be aggressive. Let's show them that we can, because Jalen is well capable of doing so, that we can throw the ball.

44:37Shannon Sharpe:You can because you're getting one-on-one because they're doing everything they can to stop Saquon. Yeah. Yeah. They listen. Oh, Joe, we're going to the game. We know you want to run Saquon. We know you got this mammoth offensive line. We know you want to run Saquon. We're going to stop it. We're going to force you. Right. So Sunday they forced him, and A.J. Brown and Smitty came up big. Mm-hmm. Big time. They caught him in a zone, and they got it down the seam for a touchdown. A.J. Brown made some unbelievable catches. Matter of fact, you know what? now that I think about it, I'm not sure if Jalen Hurts has the freedom to do so, but Petula calls a play and Jalen you scan the field, you scan the defense if I look to my right and I look to my left and I see the safety in the middle of the field with the goddamn safety down in the box I'm checking as a matter of fact, it doesn't have to be alert that's loud, it could be something simple tap of the hip or like Carson used to do me he'll come to the line and just grab his face mask i already know what to do or he'll just hit me with the you know you know the the number system right dude playing off he throw that two up just throw a two up real quick boom give me a slant easy go off script i'm not sure if he has a freedom to do that outside of the plays that they do they do right unless it's already unless there's a check already attached to it.

46:07Shannon Sharpe:You know what I'm saying? I go off of that too. Forget that. I'm going to throw what I'm comfortable throwing. What else did I know that me and my receivers like to run? I mean, that's eight, nine, ten years in the game. He got beat me. I'm going to see if he can do it. Yeah, he's done it. but I ain't letting Saquon run for no buck 50, no 200 yards like he was doing last year. And now it's going to be pitch and catch because I'm going to be throwing against single high safety. You're going to probably, you know, you're going to have to probably be able to stop Saquon with your front and then you can play coverage underneath because if you get single high, it's pitch and catch.

46:55Shannon Sharpe:And most quarterbacks, if you don't put pressure on him, he's just going to pitch, you know, it's going to be 707. Pick you right apart. Absolutely. All right, Ocho, it's time for our final segment of the evening. It's time for Q &A. Q &A.

47:16Man, Kyle Fitz and Ray McLeod must be asleep, man. They ain't answered back yet.

47:23Shannon Sharpe:Bro, it's 1 o 'clock in the morning. Leon Banks says, is this your king? King Henry playing soft as a mofo. Well, he's playing soft, shaking my effing head. I don't think he's playing soft. He just got to do a better job protecting the ball. Yeah, that's it. He's not playing soft, man. That's it. Fumbles are a part of the game. High and tight. High and tight.

47:48Shannon Sharpe:JJ said, my mama can play better defense than that, and she's no longer with us. Sorry to hear that. If Derek Henry's going to keep fumbling the ball, stop giving his ass the ball. Nah, you can't do that. Can't do that. Can't do that But he got to do a better job of holding on to it But I'm gonna steal hand his ass the ball Anthony, right? Say the ravers are looking like the bingos from last year. Our fans have to be perfect because the defense can't stop ish Relax, relax. There's no need to put the bangles in this Tonight tonight is about the raven and tonight is about the lions ravens and lions.

48:25Don't bangles. That was yesterday. Don't do that

48:28Shannon Sharpe:48 to 10 D for L, Josh. Is that Lamar or James Harden?

48:41James who?

48:42Shannon Sharpe:James Harden. What are you trying to say? Is that in reference to the playoffs? Yes. Well, let him get to the playoffs and we'll find out. Brian N said, let's go Lions. I've been watching YouTube live the next day at work. Lions come out shaky this year. but of handle getting punched in the mouth. I rubbed the Lions in chat last year and will this year. Great win. Brian, they look good. They look really good. I mean, that's how you bounce back. You got thrashed in Green Bay, and then you go drop 52 on Chicago, and then you go hang 38 on the road against the Ravens. Now, you might have people like, well, Chicago ain't nobody.

49:22Shannon Sharpe:The Ravens are somebody. We believe the Ravens are going to make the playoffs. We believe they have a pretty good team. All these world beaters, no. But to do what they did against Lamar, they sacked him seven times. They ran the football for 224 yards against that defense. They threw the ball for 202, 20 of 28. When you do a complete demolition, you took them apart. Yeah, Lions look really good, really good. MSQ, Ocho, would you be willing to trade Trey Hendrickson to my Niners? do they have an asking price hoping Nick Bosa has a smooth recovery. Nah, we good. We good. We good. Appreciate you.

50:03Appreciate you. If you didn't want him before the injury, don't want him now. We good. We good over here in Cincinnati. I appreciate that, though.

50:10Shannon Sharpe:No Rush 75. Get out of your feelings. Y 'all got blasted by the Lions. Yeah, they lost. I mean, after this, I'm going to go upstairs and brush my teeth, and I'm going to go to sleep. I promise you. I'm not in my feelings about this. I promise you. You shouldn't say foot or ball. Matter of fact, the fact that you even talking football tonight, you shouldn't be talking football. Your Broncos lost and your Ravens lost. The Patriots lost and Cincinnati lost. I am. You play for the Bengals. I'm in no way. Bengals. Went to the Super Bowl. You got a Super Bowl jersey with a Super Bowl patch on it. I don't even know.

50:46I don't know where that's at.

50:47Shannon Sharpe:And you caught a pass in the Super Bowl. Yeah. Look at that old show. Tim and Jay say, oh, can't say foot or ball after this weekend. He ain't going to be able to say it next Monday either. Oh, we got to say that. TC said, let's go Lions. Lamar who?

51:12Can't take seven sacks, but you can't give up 224 yards rushing either.

51:19Shannon Sharpe:Kevin Bonam Jr. said y 'all going to ignore the old line for the Ravens couldn't run block block or pass block now he has some time back then whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa so what what so let me ask you a question so what was it week one because they ran they ran block and they pass block and you go back and look at what they did against Cleveland what about their defense yeah they had some time back there what what what what you gonna do with the defense uh king pain said two gift wrap 90 plus tds embarrassing no fight no pride no standing on the defense or up front got punched so hard we abandoned the run that ain't raving football looks off like little birdies out outro you and i talked about this earlier night only 19 rush attempts Yeah.

52:13Yep, they abandoned it early because they couldn't they didn't have any success with it. I don't know.

52:20Shannon Sharpe:Henry broke off a 28-yard touchdown run. Yeah, that was one 28-yard run. After that it was absolutely nothing. Nathaniel. Cal Simpson said, I sure miss Ed Reed and Ray now. Clearly the Ray was due to high and tight King Henry, high and tight. Oh, go ahead and smash the plate. Q Florida Evans. Damn, damn, damn. That's all right. We'll get back up. We both get on the right track. Ravens will win next week. So are the Broncos. I'm calling it.

52:59Shannon Sharpe:Kevin Cook said, bang gold grills and diamond chains ASAP. Man, what did the chains have had nothing to do with it? He had them chains on when he ran for 2 ,000 yards. He had those chains on when he ran for 1 ,900 yards. That's the new thing. Guys wear, yeah, they wearing Richard Mills, and they wearing their diamonds, and they wear, you know, I had a regular chain. I ain't have no diamonds on there. I did it. My pendant was diamond, 84. But these guys different now. These guys got a neck full of chains out there. Hey, you know what? I had my mouth full of golds back in the day. That's it. I needed it.

53:37I needed it.

53:40Shannon Sharpe:we've had effects i owe you an apology ocho i can't say foot or ball either now this almost turned me into a bingo it is is it matter of fact i don't i don't know how far down the line before we play the raven but we got the way they're gonna run through y 'all hold on wait a minute wait a minute don't do that we got the formula on how to beat y 'all don't worry about it you ain't done it not with the bar okay keep keep that same energy if i had chad's confidence I'd move mountains hey who sits at the top of the AFC North right now

54:17Shannon Sharpe:y 'all not Pittsburgh

54:23wait how they sit no no they don't

54:27Shannon Sharpe:they two and one two all right all right Abla side look at his ass getting all excited talking about You didn't think Pittsburgh went 2-1? No, I love your reaction. Oh, yeah. Ambulance, let's be real. Anyone still claiming Allen deserves MVP last year is just insecure. That was Lamar's trophy. Deep down, they know it. It's over with. Hell, I believe Asia Wilson should have won three MVPs in a row. She should have five because I believe she should have won 2023. Breonna Stewart won it. It's all it don't matter. I mean, hey, I believe Jordan should have won a couple. LeBron, Kobe. But it is what it is.

55:12Shannon Sharpe:That trophy got Josh Allen's name on it. It's on his mantle. So when he comes home from work, he sees it. When his wife comes in from work, she sees it. So it is what it is. But y 'all make it seem like Josh Allen the bum. Nah. Damn. I sure wish I had me some trophies and awards to put behind me. 50 900 that's what shipping the handling cost 59 hundred you know i want to build me a nice shelf i want to be a nice shelf back here you know with my nightcap sign i got my two plaques it sure would be nice to have some awards to you know to put to put under there so people can see so my kids can see uh you know your daddy your daddy's still you know working hard now 59 hundred you get that yeah you got all the trophies look at all the webbies yeah you got all them webbies back there I showed my wall naked yeah I mean shipping and handling $5 ,900 I can get them out to you I mean I can't trust that's what that's what that's what UPS and FedEx say that's what they charge they say to get those rewards out to get them there overnight it cost $5 ,900 hey I just I don't know why I have a feeling I send you that money I won't get my awards no you get them guaranteed if I have to drive them to you myself.

56:35I appreciate that.

56:38Shannon Sharpe:And you know I hate driving. Ocho, look at the defense with Mike McDonald and look at the defense with Zach Orr.

56:49It's the same players, ain't it?

56:51Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Yeah, we're not blaming no coordinators. That's what we're not going to do. It all comes down to X's and O's. It all comes down to scheme and schematics and executing whatever it's called. We're not blaming no coordinators. Don't do that. PWS said Ocho, Fred Warner earned a 99 overall rating on Maddox after his performance yesterday against the Arizona Cardinals. Will his rating be updated? Absolutely. Absolutely. Matter of fact, I'm meeting with my team tomorrow at EA to do some adjustments on numerous amounts of players who've been playing phenomenal this year. Fred Warner being one of them.

57:34Hell yeah. Matter of fact, another one, I'm going to throw a birdie out there. Another one being Isaiah Rogers. Another one being Danny Dimes. Need I keep going?

57:43Shannon Sharpe:Get Indiana Jones. Or you're picking up what I'm putting down. Mm-hmm. Come on now. J.J. Carver said, Uncle Nocho over under my Saints winning three games this year. Be honest. The fans understand.

Brian Flores replaced John Harbaugh Oh Hey you you want your defense to play like a raven bring Flores in that thing you know bring floors anything but again you still have the same players the players still have to execute the plays that are called the defenses that are called you know it ain't the coach the coach don't do so much i don't know we keep blaming coaches and changing coaches the same players are still gonna be there true dark barns at ultra rando rando 40 in 4-4 um he meant 4.4 days with an oxygen bottle needed afterwards.

59:23Oxygen bottle?

59:24Shannon Sharpe:Yep. I mean, does this person not know I play soccer every weekend? I play 11v11 soccer every weekend running up and down. Man, I'm not slow. I don't sit around. I don't sit around. I'm still active. Be tripping. Denise Joshi, I hope the Giants get Lane Kiffin next year. Scootie Puff, Ocho, please pay back what you owe. We need to clear our karma so the Bengals can succeed in the future. No stone left unturned. That ain't got nothing to do with nothing. It does. She's trying to correlate the Bengals losing right now with our personal stuff. I put that juju IA. I know this lady. Huh? I'm just saying, I know this lady.

1:00:10We don't believe in that. I don't believe in that.

1:00:18I don't believe in that. My God is

1:00:21Shannon Sharpe:good god when you're on your knees asking your hands what's wrong with you don't worry about it hey hey you talking about hulk told me man let me stop playing man i would hey i don't believe in that foolishness either nah absolutely not oh dr frankie l bellamy ocho let unc have that chain and your debt will be paid what you think oh no you can't you can't get this boy is that a cuban but it's solid gold what's the cube is that cuban yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah let me let me get it in that work 5900 you don't even wear jewelry i wear that no no you're not from miami this is this is this is you ain't got to be from miami to wear jewelry what the hell wait listen this cuba this q this is a representation of a dude from dade county and liberty city this ain't this ain't what you wear you ain't from cuba so why you wearing a cuban chain because it's it's a staple of miami okay i'm from miami what what part the beans

1:01:31Shannon Sharpe:hey that was a good one that was a good one that's where i brought the beans uh tyrant said what's up okay no show what's going on with marvin harrison jr he was supposed to be the trajectory like malik Malik neighbors is going.

1:01:48He ain't that far.

1:01:48Shannon Sharpe:Well, if you stop thinking that he going to be his dad, that's your problem. So let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question. Let's just say his name was Marvin Purcell. Would you have the expectations? Because you know who his dad is, Marvin Harrison Sr., and you know what he did.

1:02:10Shannon Sharpe:A lot of this is expectations. And I think Marvin, I think he, look, I think he's, I think he's going to be phenomenal, but that's a lot of expectations when you have a dad and your dad's a hall of famer and he played the same position. Yeah. That's a lot of expectations that come along with that. I mean, and your name is Marvin Harrison, Jr. Everybody know who Marvin Harrison is? Senior is, yeah. Yes. I think he's going to be fine. Like Ochoa said, just a little bit of concentration. you don't have to make every play. Yeah. Every play is not meant to score a touchdown. Bag on head. When they talk about the top QBs that never mentioned golf, he just keeps getting better since he got to Detroit.

1:02:55Fourth down pass to seal it, to seal the game was nice.

1:02:59Shannon Sharpe:Yes. You know, he got a hump looking in the backfield. Yeah. Hump got Armand Ross St. Brown man to man. Hey, listen. He started inside like he's trying to cut him off. well first of all if he cuts you off he already got the first out anyway and listen for Marlon Humphrey in that situation I wouldn't even feel bad because Amon Ross St. Brown do everybody like that he beat everybody like that not in that specific play not in that circumstance but he beats everybody everybody that lined up in front of him they get done like that yeah he has 77 27 for a touchdown, longer 20 on eight targets. J-Mo, I thought J-Mo was going to go for 100 because he only had three targets, but he had two for 43.

1:03:53Shannon Sharpe:He had them quick, too. Sir Case, my guys, I don't understand how the Steelers defense looks so good on paper but can't stop Jack. What do they need to do?

1:04:06Shannon Sharpe:Just keep playing. It's going to take some time. like you said it's on paper but it takes time to come together you know Slay is new, Ram is new but for the most part those guys up front they've been there Watt Cam they'll be alright Jamal the singer damn you done broke every damn thing I'm about to start calling you so expect the gadget I broke a lot of ish Yeah, no.
