1:36Rich Eisen:What is your plan to play Travis Hunter on both sides of the football? Live from the Rich Eisen Show studio in Los Angeles. It's absolutely happening. Picked off by Travis. Do you think he can be offensive and defensive rookie of the year? Hunter, he wanted the ball, and that's why. I do think it's possible. earlier on the show. ESPN NFL analyst Louis Riddick. Senior writer for the MMQB. Albert Breer. Coming up. Your phone calls, latest news and more. And now it's Rich Eisen. Ah yes everybody. Hour number three of the Rich Eisen show is on the air. Albert Breer is departing here. Great hour with him.

2:18Rich Eisen:The hour of power. That was awesome. Remember the hour of power? T.J. Jefferson? What was that? The Hour of Power? That was on the Price is Right, wasn't it? Wasn't that what it's always called? The Hour of Power? Yes. At any rate, listen, while Albert was here, I know this isn't really top of the hour type of material, but I just went back, and the Thin Mints are gone. Is somebody messing with me? So it's happening right now. Okay. Those are the last two. Are you going to eat both? Are you going to have both? You're going to do that? You're going to do that? Well, seller called one, so. No, listen.

2:57Rich Eisen:It may be the Rich Eisen show. It may be an I in Rich and Eisen, but please, enjoy it. Oh, thanks. No, no, please. And I mean it. And I mean it. Just make as much noise as possible while you're doing it, please. That's not about this at all. Oh, my God. It's terrible. It's awful. How dare you? Oh, caution. And in front of me and everything. Oh, my gosh. This is an audio program. I was a wide receiver at MU. Oh, my God. That was a quarterback issue. Uh-oh. That was. It was right in front of him. What is going on over there? That was very Ben DiNucci of you right there. Very Dak of him. Oh, no. Why would you say that?

3:29Rich Eisen:Dak is an accurate throw of the football. Why would you do that? Because he's away from the microphone. Why would you do that? Thanks, sir. No, really. Guys, enjoy the Thin Mints. That are the last ones that we have here. You probably ate the most of that box. I would deny that. There's no evidence. And Girl Scouts. I mean, there is no evidence. Of America? There's no cameras back there. Okay, let's go.

3:57Rich Eisen:844-204-RICH is the number to dial here on the program. Adam in Maryland, you're here on the Rich Eyes of Joe. Is this Adam Peters? Line one or two, Rich. Line one. Is this the general manager of the Washington Commanders on the program? Oh, I wish, because Terry would already have that three-year,$90 million deal.

4:19Rich Eisen:Great answer, Adam. What's on your mind, sir? Well, speaking of the commanders, I'd like to do the win-loss game. Oh, okay. All right. I like it. The win-loss game. I was going to do it yesterday, but, you know, a certain Money in the Bank guy had to be late for his appointment, so I got bumped. I got bumped. Listen, Seth Rollins. You have to prioritize things, Adam. When Seth Rollins lies, there's a lot of ripple effects and a lot of people that get affected, and who knew Adam in Maryland was affected because he wanted to play the win-loss game for the Washington commanders. Adam feels like he got cursed.

4:51Rich Eisen:I believe. That's a good one. Oh, you got TJ. Spit taken. He just spit taken. Are you ready, Adam? Okay, here we go. Let's do this. All right. This is only the second Washington Commanders win-loss game that we've had yet. What happens in the home opener against the New York football Giants, sir? Well, we've been getting over a little bit of a curse with the Giants where no matter what, they always get us. And this is another step to that. Quick sidebar, we call Nationals wins curly Ws. I'm going to call Commanders wins block Ws. That's a block W. That's a block W. Very good. At the Green Bay Packers to kick off the Thursday night football schedule.

5:35We have a classic between Jordan Love and Jane Daniels that ends in another block W.

5:41Rich Eisen:Block W. 2-0 against the Raiders. Sorry to yesterday's guest, O'Shea Jackson Jr., but that's another block W. That's a 3-0 at the Atlanta Falcons. I think Atlanta does give us another good classic like we did to get in the playoffs, but yet again, a block W. That's four block Ws at the Chargers. That will also be another block W. That's a 5-0 start for the Washington Commanders, home for the Bears and Caleb Williams on a Monday night, where ESPN no doubt will be showing that Hail Mary video every other three seconds. What do you got? And so yesterday, I was going to say the Bears get their lick back for the Hail Mary, but because of Seth, it's another blocked W.

6:28Okay.

6:29Rich Eisen:Well, he blocked you yesterday, so you blocked W'd him today. 6-0 at the Cowboys. Now, the last time we played them, we beat them. So that's another block W. Okay. That's a block L right there. Okay, that's 7-0 at the Chiefs on a Monday night. We reach critical mass of block Ws with an 8-0 start. Oh! I didn't know TJ Plus got shipped to Maryland. Home for the Seattle Seahawks on NBC Sunday night. And BC is the first block L of the year Oh boy Interesting Seahawks are the winner It's a plot twist 8-1 Home for the Lions We got our mojo back with a rematch W of the playoff 9-1 in Spain Against the Dolphins High refill against us Across the pond That's an L Okay, that's a loss.

7:33Rich Eisen:So you're now 9-2 off the bye, home for the Broncos. Sunday night. That is another block L. Oh, boy. Off of a bye. We're slipping up. We've lost three of our last four at the Vikings. JJ does good, but we right the ship. That's the block. 10-3 at the Giants. Sadly, we're not completely over that curve. They get one on us. Oh, boy. 10-4, home for the Eagles on a Saturday. we avenge the NFC Championship game. That's a block W. 11-4, home for the Cowboys in the final Prime video. Well, actually, no, this is Christmas on Netflix. What do you got? Merry Christmas, TJ. Enjoy this broom. That's a block W.

8:15Wait, wait, wait.

8:18Rich Eisen:And then at the Eagles. No, no, no, no, we're not stopping. That's too good. That stands. Too good. That stands. There's no challenge flag there. That was an outstanding response. Blowing the whistle on that. At the Eagles to finish up. This one is for the NFC East. That does not have repeat winners. That's a block W. Oh, boy. So that's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 4. Says Adam in Maryland. Thank you for the call, Adam. That was very spirited. And 13 and 4 is what Jarrell in Texas said. That's two 13 and 4s for the commander. Hmm. Block W's, everybody. I like that. Okay. Better than the old curly W's.

9:07Rich Eisen:What did they say for the Nats? I have no idea. You know what, guys? The New York Giants are going to start this season against the Washington Commanders, as we just heard. And it's going to be a fascinating matchup. Because this is where Russell Wilson is going to make his first start. as a New York Giant. You know he's going to start, right, Chris? He's already been named the starter. Well, he's number one on the depth chart. And if I'm not mistaken, I'm looking it up right here, I do believe his first career, was this where he had his first career playoff start? Did he not win a playoff game in this building?

9:55Rich Eisen:Let's see, I'm trying to remember, back in the day, Russell Wilson, yes, sir. first career playoff start as a rookie went into Washington and beat them by 10. Yep. And then they wound up going to Atlanta for the, I believe was that, yeah, that was the second round of the playoffs. Atlanta then went to the Superbowl that year, I believe.

10:23Rich Eisen:And Washington in this building is where Russell Wilson started a remote Remarkable run for the Seattle Seahawks, where he played in two playoff games in each of his first five years of his career. And twice won two playoff games in some of those seasons. Made the Super Bowl twice, won it once, had a chance, as we all know, to win it two times in a row, but did not. And we keep on saying about Russ over and over and over again. It's one of our favorites. He couldn't, he goes way back in the day with us, Christopher. He does. When we did the first ever Rich Eisen podcast kickoff special special that Chris Brockman edited together.

11:31Rich Eisen:2012 season. And we called you up. I remember calling you up and saying that thing's locked. You're like, it's locked. I'm done. We're good. Ready to go. And this is way back in the day, Chris, when you were one of those producers who were just like, really? You're going to make me do more work? That was back in your day. Now you accept it. Now you accept it. That was one of those situations where. Now you accept it. We are locked to time. You want me to do what now? That's right. And I said, we just got Russell Wilson. The Seahawks just said we can get Russell Wilson, the new rookie starter. The guy who supplanted Matt Flynn, despite the Seahawks paying him.

12:16Rich Eisen:A lot of money. And he came on our show, and he's been a friend of the program ever since. And that said, the narrative for Russell Wilson is that he needs to, once again, go on a playoff run. Make the playoffs, go on a playoff run, and win a Super Bowl, or make one, for him to reach the Pro Football Hall of Fame. that he was on a rocket ship towards in his first six, seven years of his career. And when he steps on the field in Washington, D.C., or Maryland, Virginia, whatever, when he steps on the field at the home of the Washington Commanders, the spot where he won his first playoff game of his career, it will be the 200th game plate of his career.

13:18Rich Eisen:200. Wow. And the reason why we bring all this up is because we haven't done this in a while. But Russell Wilson is today's participant in Who Wants to Be a Hall of Famer here on the Rich Eisen Show. Hit it. Who wants to be a Hall of Famer? Is that your final answer? Is Russell Wilson a Hall of Famer right here and right now as he steps on the field to start week one for the New York Giants? Is he already that guy? Or is the way that his Seahawks career ended, his Broncos career flamed out, his one season in Pittsburgh similar in many ways to his career arc of got the start when nobody saw it coming because again he had not been with Pittsburgh at all and he gets the pole position, he gets hurt, he doesn't play and then he gets the gig and goes on a remarkable run and then disappoints at the end of the season and they're done with him.

14:40Rich Eisen:One and done him. Now he's with the Giants. Does he need to do anything with the Giants of significance to make the Hall of Fame? Or is he there right now? I've got his career stats for you, folks. He is 16th all-time in terms of completions, which is 3 ,882. 16th all-time. He's ahead of somebody named Aikman and Montana. His career completion percentage just shy of 65%. 24th all-time ahead of Big Ben and a guy named Tom Brady. He's 17th all-time in the passing yards list of 46 ,000. 12th all-time with 350 passing touchdowns. Rushing yards. 4th all-time amongst quarterbacks with 5 ,462. 31 rushing touchdowns.

15:35Rich Eisen:That's tied for 20th all-time amongst quarterbacks. His passer rating is just shy of 100. That's fifth all-time ahead of Peyton Manning and a guy who's going to be a first ballot guy next year, Drew Brees. He won the Super Bowl, as we all know. Ten-time Pro Bowler. He was the Rookie of the Year. He's won Walter Peyton's Man of the Year. Passing rating leader in the NFL in 2015. He led the league in touchdowns in 2017. nobody in the first nine seasons of his career had more wins as a quarterback than his 98 his 250 or better passing touchdowns in his first nine seasons only one of three such quarterbacks Marino and Peyton Manning to do that

16:20Rich Eisen:who wants to go first on this very thorny subject matter Christopher no no Russell Wilson there's going to be a case I think looking back that he was not primarily the reason that they were winning a lot of those games the Legion of Boone is going to take a lot of credit Marshawn Lynch is going to get a lot of credit if you look at personal accolades you said it only led the league in touchdown once never led the league in yards never led the league in completion percentage never led the league in Let's see. What else? Never made first team all pro. Famously has never come close to winning an MVP.

17:04Never was the best quarterback in the league. Never going to go down as the best quarterback of his era. And I think the way his career is finishing up, you mentioned all the wins to start his career. Well, in the last four years, 23 wins. Russell Wilson, not a Hall of Famer.

17:19Rich Eisen:T.J. Jefferson, would you care to chime in on this subject matter as well? Yeah, I'm of the belief that Phillip Rivers is in the Hall of Famer. We've had this talk before, Chris, and I don't think he gets in. So, therefore, statistically speaking, even though Russell does have the Super Bowl and Phillip doesn't, no, I don't. Based upon Chris just gave about three of the stats that I wanted to give. But, yeah, it would take another ring, I think, for me to go, yeah. Another ring. Yeah. As of right now, no. I don't think so. Man, nine years into his career, if we had this question, would we have said yes?

18:02Rich Eisen:I think we would have said yes nine years into his career. I think we would have said he's on the track, and if he continues this pace, then yes. But he has not continued the pace. Absolutely not. The pace has fallen off the train tracks. We've never seen a career kind of flame out the way this has. You know the way I feel about him. you know the way I feel about it. Yeah, I mean, I'm trying to keep personal feelings aside. No, I know that. And so in this conversation, I will place them aside and say I have to agree with you guys. What does he need to do? So let's be positive here. We've got to win a Super Bowl with the Giants.

18:38He's got to win one? Got to win one. What if he takes them to one? Is he the reason that they're getting there? Well, they're not going to get there if he doesn't play well. I mean, if he's throwing up 4 ,500 yards and 38 touchdowns, then yeah, okay, that's going to be good.

18:50Rich Eisen:but I need to see that for two or three more seasons. The expectation level for Russell Wilson with the Giants nationally, I believe is so low. Oh, they think that you play half a season Jackson dart is going to play more games than him. Yeah. That Jameis is going to get a start at some point or two because, because Jameis is breaking case of emergency, but I hear what you're saying. But of all places that you can show up and show out to put yourself back on this track in the same way that he won his first playoff game where he's going to start his first game as a New York Giant when he starts his first home game is a New York Giant against the Kansas City Chiefs it will be in the building where he won a Super Bowl and again he wasn't the MVP of that Super Bowl to keep on making this point right about all of that but he doesn't make that Super Bowl and they don't make the Super Bowl the next year with Pete Carroll only to somehow some way not hand it off to Marshawn Lynch, and they don't make it, they're not the team that we were referring to when the Chiefs were winning back-to-back games as the last team to do it, which would, I think, also add more to his resume.

20:02Rich Eisen:Yeah, that second ring is a game changer. Right, and the fact that they didn't get the second ring is because they chose to throw it instead of run it, and Belichick's defense, you know, read it. came out of nowhere with a guy that was deep down on when Al Michaels is coming out here next time, we got to talk about where Malcolm Butler was on his card. Sixth on the depth chart. Exactly. The fact that he knew exactly who Malcolm Butler was on the spot is truly unbelievable. But all I'm saying is taking him to a Super Bowl, take him to an NFC championship game when everybody expects him to be benched at some point this year because it's going to be exactly the same results that we saw in Pittsburgh, exactly the same result for him being the biggest dead cap released in the history of the NFL by the Broncos, and exactly why the Seahawks were like, we're done here.

21:00If they don't win it, he's got to be top five MVP and get to the championship.

21:07Rich Eisen:Then we put him back in this mix, No, no, no. Then the trajectory is back pointing upwards. Right, and then... Got to do it again next year. To make the Hall of Fame. Yeah. The first 10 years of his career doesn't matter. His first 10 years of his career is one of the best 10 years of anybody's first 10 years of their career. And a lot of people have forgotten about it because he's been so bad the last four years. I just think... If he... Again, this is a team that nobody's expecting to see anything coming. and we're going to see more of Jackson Dart than him. And if it's something completely different, I think that puts him back on this path for sure.

21:44Rich Eisen:But like no more. The arrow turns a little bit to go up, but it's still, I mean, he's got a couple years to go. Sacked 560 times in his career. He's one of the most sacked quarterbacks of all time. And he's been to the playoffs nine of his 13 seasons in the NFL. If he makes it 10 for 14 with the Giants, dude. He's got nine playoff wins. He's got an over 500 playoff record. It's all impressive stuff. But one ring and zero personal accolades.
