Tough to argue. Listen to the entire podcast wherever you get your podcasts. And in the first hour, we asked a poll question. Let's get an update here at the top of the second hour.

Chris Brockman, go for it at Rich Eisen Show. Yeah, let's do it. Nice, heated passenger first debate. Should a flag ever be thrown for P.I. on Hail Mary to end the game? 43 percent. Say? No.

57 percent. Absolutely. Ah. Wow. And you thought I was in the minority.

Oh, look at us. But then you agreed and said that it shouldn't. Well, and I basically said, you know what? I don't know.

Then don't come. Don't don't tell me that it doesn't matter. We're going to call a foul whenever we see a foul.

Doesn't matter down distance or anything. Right. We need to get rid of that language. Yeah. That's all I'm asking for. Consistency.

You know, that is all I am asking for. Let's go to the phone lines and discuss this a little bit more. Pete in West Virginia. What's up? What's up, Pete? Can you guys hear me?

Yes, we can. What's up, Pete? Hey, nothing much. I appreciate you guys having me on us to your show every day at work. Attaboy. What do you do? Pete, let's learn more about you.

What do you do? Hey, I'm a mailman. Attaboy. All right. All right.

So you're listening to us on your route? Yes. Yes. Okay. Okay.

That's dope. You're not like Newman where you're wondering about the mail that never stops. It keeps coming in. Right, Pete? Keeps coming in. Yeah.

Monday through Saturday. Attaboy. Well, Pete knows he controls information. He controls information. That's right. Yeah.

I don't control any information. Calling misconception. Well, thank you very much for your call. What do you got in your mind?

All right, Pete. Hey, so I'm a big Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan, and while I was suffering through the game last night, I was dialed in on my couch watching the Hail Mary. And a part of me wanted to be mad, but then I came to realization, pass interference never gets called.

I've watched a lot of football games in my life at all levels. Never gets called on the Hail Mary. So I was like, well, how can I be mad at a call that never gets called? So do you think it should get called, though, at the end of a game?

How would you vote on our poll question, which is... Well, I would vote yes. I actually officiate basketball as well, just finished on my eighth year. And we always have been told a foul in the first two minutes of the game is a foul in the last two minutes of the game.

I know it's a different sport than football, but I feel like it should be the same thing. I mean, I think it was Trey Palmer last night as a still shot photo, right beside Chris Godwin, and then Trey, I think it might be a different receiver, was just sandwiched in between... I think it was Otton. It was Otton.

It was Kate Otton, right around the one-yard line. He was not in the end zone, but yes, sir. Yes, sir. Right. Right. So, hey, if it's that blatant, I mean, it looks like a sandwich out there. How you gonna let that go? So, yes, I was pretty upset about that, but if I was a Bills fan, I'd be happy, though, that I didn't get called. So I'm gonna guess both ways.

But if I had to vote on your question, I would say yes, I would like to see it get called more. Pete, thank you. Call back, regardless of rain, sleet, or snow. Thank you.

Watch out for the dogs. I love it. Guy on his mailman. He's a mailman on his route. He's listening to us.

We have a responsibility. Yeah. I love it.

That's dope. How about that? He's another yes. Count him in. And he had a reason to be upset about it, and he should be mad when you control the mail.

Information. That is so great. I can't wait for him to call back. I don't know why that line that you just referenced just caught me like a right cross for the day.

Everything Newman did was just hilarious, like sketchy, but a little bit. Hello, Pete. Pete's got a call back just so we can do it.

Oh, my gosh. Shane in Miami, Florida. What's up, Shane?

315305. Line two, sir. Sorry. What's up, Shane?

Rich. Yes, sir. What's up?

We got the giggles today, man. Yeah. Can you hear me?

I can. Love your show. Love the family man that you are.

Thank you. And love most about you being a passionate Michigan man. Are you too, Shane? Are you as well?

Now, I'm not an alum, but I'm a diehard fan since 1989, and I grew up in, of all places, Ohio, about four hours away from the great city of Ann Arbor. Listen to this unicorn that we're talking to right now. Fantastic. 89, what was it? Was it... Billy Robinson.

I don't know. 89 was national championship hoops. Was it Glenn Rice that got you in? Well, of course, Glenn Rice.

Of course, Glenn Rice. I was actually an all-state linebacker in high school, and I went to... Our biggest rival our senior year, or most of my four years in high school, was Ricky Powers at Bookdull. So from when he was getting recruited, I kind of started to make that shift from not...

I was never a guy that wanted to follow the herd anyways, so I kind of made the shift then. But thanks for asking. I'm calling regarding the decoding of signs, and I say that because the word steal is just too obnoxious. Well, it might also be too on the nose, Shane. You know? I mean, so I don't know. Well, you're right, but we do live in a country that... I thought you're innocent and too proven guilty, and there's a lot of embarrassing journalism being reported, like the Ohio mouthpiece for years, Pete Sammel, who do have us guilty until proven innocent. Well, I don't...

He's not... Okay. Keep going, Shane. I'll let you finish your soliloquy here.

Go for it. Well, maybe I'm a little too harsh there, but that's just my belief from hearing this guy over the last few years. But also, he also, like a lot of reporters in journalism, have failed to mention my million dollar question in all this is, who and how accessed the Michigan computers, and who paid the law firm slash PR agency to access that? So my request for you is, being the passionate Michigan guy that you are, moving forward when you talk to Bruce Feldman to the world, let's try and get more information about this. Now, Dan Wetzel, on his pod, did reiterate this, which was my million dollar question.

He also said, in the end, this could end up being worse than the actual science feeling. So I want to let you comment, and I want to ask you one more thing before we go. Sure.

What do you got? Oh, okay. Also, so yeah, just again, if you could hammer in this home to Bruce Feldman's when you start having more conversations about this, and also, if you can have your producer put our little clip on YouTube, because I belong to the Fort community, the Wolverine, there's about 30,000 strong of us on the Free.Sign site, run by Chris Ballas, and there's a lot of people on there that love me. No, I know Ballas, no, I've been reading, trust me, I'm reading a bunch, and I'm on a text chain with a bunch of Michigan Wolverine diehards, and his stuff gets shared on our text exchange, and I appreciate the call, Shane.

Thank you very much. And so we're all looking for information, and it's been drip, drip, drip. Pete Famil is a, I would call, unbesmerchable. He's just reporting what he hears. Don't shoot the messenger. I don't think he's an Ohio mouthpiece by any stretch, and look, I can't wait to find out all this. I asked that question yesterday when the Washington Post was saying there is an independent outside firm that reached out to the NCAA about this, and the NCAA is now on campus, apparently, in Michigan, looking into all this during their bye week.

And so, again, that's what I said yesterday. Who alerted the independent firm about all this? Was it a different thing that they saw all this and had to, felt due diligence, let's call the NCAA on this? There's a great piece in The Athletic, somebody, did you see this? Somebody spoke to an unnamed sign stealer at another school. I did read that yesterday. Right? Really interesting.

And again, the sign stealer, because everybody steals signs, everybody's attempting to steal signs, says that if you did actually take a cell phone and go to games specifically to shoot the other sideline, that's effed up, and you're dumb, and you're going to get got for it, okay? And then you see all these reports that Jim didn't know that this guy was doing all this stuff on the outside, but I guess didn't stop to think, how the hell do we have everybody signed so perfectly? You know? Honestly.

Or something else. I don't know. I don't know.

We don't know. But the sign stealer in The Athletic story said this piece of video that's going around of CJ Stroud looking at the sideline in the Michigan game and Michigan UC in the background on the sideline, this Connor Stallions guy, you know, the buck's slope of the operation, you know? Because again, I keep thinking his name. Like is his mother's name Connor and he grew up on Stallions Street? You know? Right.

Is this something that works? Is his dog's name Connor? I don't know. Right? And that the moment that you see where it looks like, oh, they got the play, it's basically them seeing, they're checking out of the play, and then when they're all pointing straight up in the air, this video that went viral, Michigan, you see them all pointing straight up in the air, that means pass is coming. Also Stroud scored a touchdown on that play, so it doesn't really mean anything. Right.

So this is the point. It's just like the pass is coming. Does that mean you know the exact route that Jackson Smith and Jigba was going to run or the exact route that Marvin Harrison was going to run? You just, we don't, we all look at these videos and go, oh, that's guilty as sin. There it is right there.

Rick Daltonship. There it is. And then we're all assuming. So let's see it all come out. And again, I will just say it one more time. If it is proven that this is egregious and worthy of a penalty, then the penalty should be levied and it shouldn't be over the top that, you know, where it's so crazy based on it. Let's put it this way. It should be commensurate to what is found. How's that sound?

It should be commensurate to what is found. In the meantime, it has been ripped out route and branch gone. That dude's not on the sideline right now. And you Purdue, you Penn State, you Maryland, you Ohio State, pardon me, the Ohio State, you whoever's in the other conference, if Michigan gets through and you face them in the big 10 and you in the college football playoffs, if Michigan gets that far and faces you, you're on, it's on you.

If you didn't change your signs or go to a wristband and it's on you anyway against any other team in the NCAA right now, cause for some reason, you know, you got a gajillion dollars, you got soda companies hooked up with your, your, your sport where in half the bowl games, we got to sit there at the 90 minute long halftime, watching people chest pass footballs through a soda can hole, you know, let's take some of that money and put a friggin speaker in somebody's headset. Let's do the comms. There's the boy again.

The only answer is for Michigan to beat the tar out of every single team they face from here on out, because if that happens, if that happens after this has been ripped out root and branch and a story and do yourself a favor, Jason, do not play that drop while TJ Jefferson is taking a sip of his tea because he's about to take the camera off him because he might spit up on camera. Let's help him out. Wow. We got him, we got the giggles today. We do. I kind of like it.

Like Friday giggles. All right, let's get to my top five here so we can give him a break. All right. It's my most intriguing matchup to the rest of week eight that began last night in Western New York, hit it, hit it, one, two, three, four, and five, richest top five. All right, everybody, once upon a time, if I told you last year, one of the most intriguing matchups of week eight would be PJ Walker versus Geno Smith. You'd have been like, okay, Brown Seahawks, you betcha two, four, and two teams, late window Fox. Let's go, let's go on game Brown's Seahawks. The winner of this game is five and two.

The winner of this game will have won five of its first seven contests. And the Browns at five and two, you know what? They would be right at the top of their division with the Ravens, maybe the Steelers, or even on top by themselves.

You never know. And then there's the Seahawks, then there's the Seahawks. What if Joe Burrow comes off the bye week and hands it to the 49ers defense that's been having it handed to them by BJ Walker on occasion and also Kirk Cousins last week, right? What if Sam Darnold doesn't do what I'm expecting him to do? Could the Seahawks be in first place in the NFC West through eight weeks of this season?

Yes, they can. That's an intriguing matchup in front of the twelves. Number four, normally there's a useless trophy named after a peanuts character on the line when these two teams face each other in the preseason.

This is week eight and the New York Jets are taking on the New York Giants and MetLife Stadium. Let's go three and three versus two and five. Let's not write home about that. But you throw the records out when they face each other. This is when fireman Ed goes against fireman Giants fans in actual firehouses in New York City police departments. This is where it's, you know, brothers in blue, sisters in blue look at each other and go, OK, what's the name of the trophy?

Not this weekend. The Snoopy, the Snoopy Trophy, MetLife, you know, OK, by the way, that sounded like very Francesco. OK. OK. All right. So three and three versus two and five Jets win this.

There are four and three. Look out. Yeah. Zach Wilson, Tarod Taylor, two twos going at it. I got to be honest with you.

I'd have much rather seen Daniel Jones back there. Straight up. Straight up.

Why? Come on. Those guys uniforms are so nice. I know the throwbacks.

So, yeah, the Phil Simms era is all the time a little bit more worried about this is not about fashion. This is about wins because they have been very, very pretty sometimes for the Jets. I don't care.

Here we go. Four and three. The Giants go three and five. Or if they go two and six, does that mean somebody might be available on the market for other teams to go get if they lose this game?

A lot of questions. Number three on this list, his varsity against whose house? The people who live just up the road from us play just up the road from us. Rams Cowboys, Sean McVeigh's first game as a head coach, as a father, Mazel Tov to the McVeigh's. Sean and Veronica Jordan, John McVeigh has been born into the planet.

So here we go. Jay McVeigh. Great name.

Jay Jay McVeigh. Great name. Great name.

And it does sound great, right? I know. I know. And you just know right now, we know this baby's going to have great hair at Cowboys five and two. Huh?

What do you think? Let's go. My varsity, our varsity. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

Aaron Donald and Micah Parsons on the same field, although not at the same time. Puka Nakua. Yeah. Yeah.

Puka Nakua in Dallas. Cup and Samoan cup and the Dallas Cowboys coming off there by Rams need to win to avoid the dreaded three and five star. You need to win. You need to win too.

And then number two on this list. Let's go. Let's go.

Let's go to Western PA where they wave their little yellow towels. Jacksonville Jaguars. Can they go from one and two to six and two? Can they win five in a row? Can they win five in a row? Yes, they can. Can the Pittsburgh Steelers go five and two by beating the Jacksonville Jaguars and ending their four game win streak and then causing Chris Brockman to keep saying, how the hell are they doing it?

Yes, they can. Smoke hashtag. Here we go. Here. We go. Trevor Lawrence in Western PA picket pickins. Here we go.

Here we go. Tomlin. Peterson. Peterson. Peterson.

Two former state of Pennsylvania HCS in the NFL. Let's go. Let's go.

Let's go. Number one. The most intriguing matchup of week number eight is the aforementioned Bengals and 49ers game. Bengals coming off of the bye.

Yes, indeed. This team could get off the Schneider and above 500 for the first time this year. That one and three start.

See you later. How do you look it up and then make Christian McCaffrey in the 49ers once upon a time, five and oh five and three, three straight losses going into their bi-week potentially being out of first place in their division or do they go six and two and Sam Darnell looks the part and then the Bengals are suddenly three and four heading into Western New York. Joe burrow in San Francisco, the so-called second coming of Brady and Brady's old neck of the woods growing up there. Here we go as well. Most intriguing matchup by far of week number eight.

Do you think we need one? I'll give you one more. I'll be straight up.

It was tough to find one more, but I'm going with this one. Ravens and Cardinals. Why is this intriguing to me? Many reasons, many, many reasons because the Cardinals have had Moxie all over the lot. How do the Ravens follow up what they did to the Lions? And they saw what happened to Dallas here.

They don't want that to happen. Nah, but what could make this more intriguing? Have you seen who got removed from the injury report completely after his second consecutive day of full practice? His name is Kyler Murray off the Cardinals injury report. What the hell is going on there?

Is it possible? Kyler Murray is back and starting this football game and what a great way to have a nice Sunday surprise on the Baltimore Ravens. Then Boston Murray out of the box against Lamar Jackson in the same football game. Oh yeah, that's intriguing.

Is that going to happen? Keep an eye peeled and stay tuned. Those are your most intriguing match-ups of week eight.

Here's the select quotes from Jonathan Gannon and Kyler Murray sent out by the NFL network. Crack staff 30 minutes ago. Question. Will Kyler be active on Monday? Answer. We'll see. Question. What went into the decision to not give him the injury designation? Answer.

He's fully healthy. Question. How important are these next two days to make that determination? Answer. Important. Okay. Question. How is Murray doing mentally?

Is he where you want him to be? Answer. Excellent.

Excellent. He's doing great. Ball jumps off of his hand. He's explosive getting out of the pocket. He's accurate. Got good command of the offense right now.

He threads the needle pretty well on some certain throws. I mean, is he going? John Harbaugh asked about which quarterback he thinks he's going to see. Basically said, we're preparing for both.

We'll see on whether it's going to be told. Jonathan Gannon said, quote unquote, we'll see on Kyler Murray. Harbaugh responded likewise with a we'll see when he asked which quarterback he expects to see.

Said Ravens will be prepared for both. I mean, I guess if you're preparing for Josh Dobbs, you just got to prepare for someone smaller and faster. You know what I mean?

With a better command, one would think of his arm. Yeah. Yeah.

Now, would you start, would you start Kyler Murray against the Ravens fresh out of the box? Sure. Why not? I know. Right. Exactly. Right.

You paid him all this money. Right. He's a franchise quarterback. You've been competitive this year. Let's see if Kyler Murray comes out, flashes a little magic, and maybe you get another upset. Baker's back. Let's go. Why not? Cardinals have been pleasantly surprising.

The most pleasantly surprising one in 16, I can remember. I'm serious. That is, I mean, this is a huge piece of news to keep an eye on. Rich Eisen Show Radio Network. We're back on the air. I'm sitting at the Rich Eisen Show desk, furnished by Grainger with supplies and solutions for every industry. Grainger is the right product for you.

Call clickgrainger.com. We'll just stop by. Hour three is going to be awesome. Miles Garrett of the Browns and then Tom Postero of NFL Network in studio, his usual Friday spot in person, and we'll ask him, because again, for our radio audience, I just read the Q and A with Jonathan Gannon of the Arizona Cardinals. Is Kyler Murray going to go? He has no injury designation. He was asked a question and answer, why, why, why, why no injury designation for Kyler Murray? And the answer is he's fully healthy. Oh, okay.

He's fully healthy. So what are we waiting for? Kyler Murray playing this weekend takes Ravens Cardinals off of the one more of the most intriguing match-ups of week eight straight up. Yeah. Maybe to number two. I can't, I can't take Bengals Niners off. Number one.

No, that's a great game. No Patriots dolphins. We'll get to that shortly. Let's take a phone call and we'll go do what's more likely. Ken in Kokomo, Indiana.

Don't do it. Fine. Ken, what's up? How you doing? What's up? Ken.

Congratulations on the Marconi. Thank you, sir. And I'd like to give you what I think might be the back judges perspective on the hail Mary on that, on last night's game. Are you a back judge yourself, Ken? No, I'm not. Okay.

But I cannot have you judging my back. Huh? What? I've been around them long enough. Yes.

So let me offer this. Chris Godwin kind of turned late. Right? Well, I mean, there's, you could say there's a reason why he turned late, Ken. Yeah.

Right. But here's, here's what I'm saying. If he's turned late, if I'm a robot, I throw the flag, but as a human being, I'm not going to bail Chris Godwin out with a flag on that play. Well, what are you bailing him out for?

He might not have turned on time because he's, he's, he's being held, you know? But that's the decision that I have to make as a back judge. So let me ask you this question, Ken. Let's ask the poll question. Let's go straight to it. Chris Brockman asked Ken the poll question and give us the results after we get the answer and say farewell to Ken and Kokomo.

All right, Ken, take it slow. Should a flag ever be thrown for pass interference on a hail Mary to end the game? Yes or no? A qualified yes. Qualified yes. Okay. That was not an option.

Did you put the words? Let me explain why I say qualified real quick. Okay. I think I know Art McNally's mindset.

In a game deciding situation like that, if there's a foul, it damn well better be there. Okay. Thank you for the call, Ken.

It's Ken and Kokomo. What's the current poll results right now? It's not going your way, is it? Based on your body language. It's not. It's not going your way.

I'd have to challenge these results to get the new speaker on the horn and try to challenge these results. Okay. Good. 60-40.

Yes. 60-40. There you go. 60-40.

Man, no more. 3,000 votes. I think the answer, Ken, though... 3,000 votes. A lot of people are wrong. Guys, I think the answer, Ken, when it comes to these officials, they want to get there fast to the spot of the foul, and then they'll take it slow while they go over.

Here's the... Do you have the Kokomo lyrics up in front of you? No, no, stop. Here's the issue. Here's the issue.

This is the issue. It's because how can you call a penalty on a play that contains a penalty every time? Every time. The fact that you are... it's like trying to get position for the world's tallest shot. Trying to get a rebound on the world's tallest shot.

That's basically it. So you're trying to get leverage, you're trying to get position, which means if you're bodying up somebody in the front and somebody's behind you, that person behind you will either leverage himself to get higher than you or push you in the back to get some sort of... There will always be a penalty on a Hail Mary. So you might as well never call one. And of the 60% that said, yes, you should, how would you like it if it does get called? Probably not so much. And then even worse, the Jim Irsay rule comes in.

How would you like it? It's not called on the field, but wait, some dude, some lady that's not even there... Everybody's working off the field. Game over. Not even there. Hold on a minute. Everybody back out. We're going to redo this. After further review.

After review. Play at the one. Here we go. Bucks.

Rashad White. Touchdown. Oh, Bills lose. And then everything gets thrown onto the field.

Yes or no? That should have happened for the Giants game, though. Different situation. Why?

What do you mean why? Because it's... Because Tyrod Taylor took them all the way down the field. So? He executed a perfect drive. Right. He didn't just throw it as far as he could and then prayed. So... Okay. Throw it 65 yards and pray is not on the play sheet.

So there is some metric, some benefit that should be given to the team that's driven down the field the entire way. Yes? Did Darren Waller's hand get held so he couldn't make a catch? Excuse me.

That's... That's... What happened? I was asked... That's not a yes or no question. I just asked you a yes or no question. There should be some benefit afforded to the team that has driven the entire length of the field.

I think unspokenly, yes. Okay. So then what about a team that's... Because they earned it. What about a team that's driven all the way down the field and has earned this benefit and then loses the football because they fumble through the end zone? Oh.

Don't fumble. Wait a minute. Oh, wait a minute. What do you mean this is nothing but the same?

I don't know. What do you mean? Then don't... Then don't wind up in a position where you have to throw it 60 yards to win a game. Wind up in a position where you have to throw it one yard to win a game.

That's the benefit. You get a benefit of the doubt on the penalty if you drive all the way down to the one. So what I'm saying is I've been saying there should be a benefit of the team that's driven the length of the field that if you fumble through the end zone... This is not about you trying to shoehorn in a rule that you hate into this discussion about Hail Marys. What I'm trying to shoehorn in is consistency. In the same way that I said... Have you watched officiating this year? There is no consistency.

Maybe that's the problem. Insubordinate and churlish. Thank you. Let's do it. It's Friday. It's Friday.

It's cold. What's more likely? Hit it. What? What's more likely?

Never say never, but never. All right. What do you got over there, Chris Brockman? Let's do it. Hey, guys. Happy Friday. What's up, Chris?

Hey. Hey, who's the more likely roller coaster quarterback to get a road win this week? Desmond Ritter or Kirk Cousins?

Oh, let's see. Atlanta is at Tennessee. Minnesota is at Green Bay. I'll go Kirk Cousins. Kirk's on fire right now. Kirk's playing well. And Green Bay is not. Desmond Ritter is definitely more roller coaster-y than Kirk Cousins, pal.

And Tennessee is where you got to take your heart pills and buckle up. And Jeffrey Simmons still plays for Tennessee, correct? Yeah. Okay. For now. Right.

So that's where I'll go. I'll go with Kirk Cousins as opposed to Desmond Ritter. That's more likely. What else you got over there, Chris? Who's more likely to get their bleep together and threaten a playoff run?

Patriots or Giants? Okay. Let's see if the word bleep is on the screen. It is not.

It is there in various asterisks and things of that nature. That's what it is. Yeah. That's it.

Um. I'll go Patriots. I'll go Patriots.

I'll go Bill. We're going to beat the Dolphins this week? What do you think? I think it's possible. Yeah. So do I. Let's go.

Weird stuff happens in Miami, man. You know what I'm trying to do? I'm trying to rally your troops here. You know, I don't like seeing you being so completely... Devastated? No, he's not devastated.

You know what he is? He's defeated. He's deflated. He doesn't believe in his team. He doesn't believe. No.

Well, no. He's got a lack of belief. He's got a lack of belief. He's got the greatest coach ever. He is deflated.

We don't believe in him. Is Porzingis playing wide out? I mean, that's the only way I'd be excited. No, you wouldn't.

You won't. You need Porzingis healthy. He's too brittle to play wide out in the National Football League. That's true. Yeah, that's a good point.

Because of knees. I'll go Patriots, man. Let's go.

New England. Take on the Dolphins. Beat them. Shock them.

And then move on to home against Washington, then I see him in Germany against Indianapolis. Oh, how about I call them going, but how about I call drink? How about I call them? Going 500? Chris. Hey. Back to 500. How about them?

Apples? Don't pull me back in, dude. I don't want to beat the Dolphins here. Avoid a sweep here. Shock the world here. Go home.

Take care of Sam Howell and his bedhead and then fly to Germany. Let's go. Yeah. Yeah. I think the the G men have got a tough road to home. They haven't even played Philly yet. Yeah. They got another game against Dallas. I'm I'm I'll do that. I don't think either deep down.

But if you chose what's more likely, I'll go Patriots. What else? Chris, what else you got over there? All right. Electric young star who's more likely to have more total yards and touchdowns with the with the what are they?

The little towels waving around. Oh, boy. He had her. George Pickens. Oh, I'll go Etienne. He's let's let's talk this, by the way, I love Pickens, as you know, he's had a couple of Jacksonville's defense has been great in Pittsburgh's defense has turned it around a little bit, too. But that kid on the left. Let's talk running backs in this league.

For real, for real. You got McCaffrey, right? Do you put Etienne second? Oh, let's talk. Let's talk. Let's talk. Let's talk about McCaffrey.

Good question. I mean, obviously, he's in a different plane with usage and success. Well, who else?

Let's go. I mean, DeAndre Swift has had a very nice season. David Montgomery has had a very nice monster.

He most had a nice. There's a lot of touchdowns. Correct. Kenneth Walker's put them on the end zone. What about what about what about multiple games in a row with multiple touchdowns? What about them?

What about that? That's Etienne is OK. We can sit here and make an argument that after McCaffrey, that's the best running back in the National Football League in terms of production and in terms of importance in leading to wins. So you're right. I'll go.

I'll go Etienne right now. I think you're right. What else?

All right. Who's what's the more likely or higher total here? We got more Micah Parson sacks or Pukka and Cup combined touchdowns on Sunday, like a Parson sack. I'll say it's more likely it's Parsons Pukka Cup touchdown.

I'll go. I'll go more than likely that it's yeah, I'll say this kid has a day. I'm concerned for I'm concerned about the Rams going into this game kind of with you there. I don't know. But I guess what if you've got a coach who can design plays, you've got a coach who is his genius at designing plays and you give him extra hours because he's not sleeping. Right. Exactly. Because he's up to make sure his wife's OK.

He's on foot to make sure that he's on. Yeah. Make sure. Well, at this point in time, you know, you remember after your son was born, very useless. You are just basically a cheerleader. You're there for moral support.

You're there to do stuff, go pick stuff up and make some nice chunk out of the box. All I know is there were there were times where I was just sitting around looking at Susie going, I hope everything's OK. And if I if I sit around, if I had to sit around and design plays, if that was my job, I would have came up a great game plan. So that's that's my two cents on what what can happen, but what's more likely is Parsons having a day.

What else? He's MVP candidate more likely to have more total TVs on the road this week. Jalen hurts. Lamar Jackson.

I'll go to Lamar because he's not wearing a knee brace. How does that sound? Straight up. Phil, he's like, it hurts is OK. He's fine. We're going to find out anything about this. I don't know. Why is there no I don't know.

Designation. I don't know what is happening. And Lamar is just on fire. So is this team. Boy, do they look good in London and they look great. They even look even better last week. So I'll go a little more.

What else you got? Well, I could be coaching their team next season. Matt Eberfluss to Brandon Staley. I thought you'd throw hardball in there just to try and throw me one of those curveballs. That's funny.

You're taking it on the chin enough. OK, I'll go Eberfluss. Eberfluss. Eberfluss.

Yeah, that's where I'll go. Brandon Staley's got to shave that beard. No, I kind of like it. I kind of like the look he's got right now, but he looks like the president before and after they leave office. You know, is that right? He's aged too much. OK. No, I mean, well, I mean, things happen to him like he's got to look something in the mirror sometimes. And first of all, go, boy, that does look good because I think it looks good. He's got to look in the mirror and go, is there a time in my tenure here where the football gods will not place a fourth in short situation on a normal game?

Yeah. Can we just pick up first down? Let's pick up first downs on second. First downs, normally possible down first downs on first down. First downs on second.

Can nobody get hurt? Honestly, he's got to sit there and think that. But I'll go Eberfluss.

What else? More likely, Joe Burrow has a day, three hundo, two tuddies or CMC one fifty and two tuddies. I told you, pal, this is going to be one of those where the Niners look just as good. Just as good. So I'll go McCaffrey. Yeah, I'll go McCaffrey.

That's more likely. Yeah. The Niners defense is going to blow up, man. They're going to have to. Kirk lit him up.

I know he did. And so, yeah, that's what I'll do. What else? The running back. You'd most likely want to trade for Derek Henry or Saquon Barkley, Saquon, younger Saquon younger.

That's simple. A little more entry. Saquon younger. Always something going on with him. I don't think he's available. I think the guy on the left, I would Godfather offer for him if I were Dallas. If I were Buffalo. I would Godfather offer for him.

Let me keep going here. Who else would Godfather from the Ravens? Imagine him on the Ravens.

You see, would he be the would he be like if you could create on a video game a Baltimore raven running back, it would be Derek Henry. What else? All right. Last one. World Series tonight. Ah, yes. Adolis Garcia is one RBI shy of the all time postseason single season.

More Adolis Garcia RBIs or total games played in the World Series. Oh, wow. Oh, I wish I could. Could I call a friend? Can I call Cooper on this?

He's going to love this question when I give it to him later when he's home from school. Oh, I had RBI. They put home runs there, but sure, home runs works too.

I will go. Well, I mean, RBI would take Garcia that, but home runs makes it more tough. Gosh. Kind of like home runs, but I'll just go total games played in the World Series. I think the Diamondbacks are a really stout freaking team. Do we get six or seven here?

I think we get six or seven here. I mean, I hope so. Long series is fun. Diamondbacks are just not going to go and sweep the Brewers, sweep the Dodgers, do what they did to the Phillies, and then just go quietly. I just don't think that they're like they're at the end of their run, that they used all of their fuel. I just I don't believe it. I think I'm this far to just I didn't I don't think so.

I will go total games played in the World Series, but I thought you'd say what would be more what what what what's more like? What's more likely more Garcia backflips or Garcia staredowns Garcia pimps. Yeah. I mean, this guy's right. Good stuff. That's what's more likely right here on the Rich Eisen show. Let's take a break. Phone calls and Bill Belichick press conference moment. I got to be straight up with you. I read it in a transcript.

I have not seen it yet. I look forward to doing that next before Myles Garrett joins us and then Tom Pelissero with all his information in studio. Suzy Schuster and Amy Trask present offbeat conversations and expert sports commentary as they ask, what the football? When my family found out how long it took me to figure out why Charles Woodson named his line intercept, they said, there's a reason that you had trouble in school. You know, not everyone knows, you know, when I think about a little intercept, they don't know that I play football. Well, what I've learned is a smooth defensive back can make smooth wine. That's what it's all about. What the football with Suzy Schuster and Amy Trask.

The podcast is available Tuesdays, wherever you listen. Just a real basic question. What the hell are you thinking? What are you doing out there? You know, just technically a challenge that most wouldn't do.

I would say so. Why? Why'd you do it? Just trying out a new bat booster package that I was working on this year. For me, though, is is literally like, would you rather live and die?

Would you rather die and never lived? So when I jumped to the first time, everybody started like cheering and yelling, I was like, OK, that's pretty cool. And then I did it the second time and I heard his word El Salvador, El Salvador. And I didn't know what that means. I left that one day and then I started hearing that through the streets and I was like, OK, whatever. And came back the second day, did it again.

And they stopped the music and everything. They just started yelling that in the stands to you, to me, like me now, I'm a football player here in the States. Correct? Yes, sir. They don't know me from Adam House. Josh.

Josh Norman is not out there in Pamplona else. I get there. Yeah. And they started sharing that name.

So I'm like a hero in Spain, almost not even back here. Let me. So hold on a second. This is bananas.

Let me get this down so I can use this on on any host of shows this NFL season. El Satador. Yes. It's like the jumper. El Satador. Like the matador, like the matador is like the jumper.

So I would love just one second in my life to have the words El Satador chanted to me. Oh, yeah. All of Josh Norman's appearances were dynamite back in the day.

YouTube dot com slash Rich Eisen Show. I think Josh Norman was made active for this week with his current team. He played. Yeah, I know.

Right. Last night for the bill. Last night back here on the Rich Eisen Show.

Eight, four, four, two or four. Rich number to dial. We have a phone call here. Let's go to Cesar in Sacramento, California, the the home of what's up of the Bradford Front listener. What's up, bud?

Happy Friday to all you guys. We're not calling about a couple of weeks ago at a hot take about you guys. I mean, you got I mean, you the Jets picking up Kyler Murray and you said I was crazy. You are crazy. We're going to pick up a hurt guy.

Well, it's got nothing to do with the tread deadline coming up on Tuesday. No. How about you?

How are you feeling now? No, it's a Zach Wilson thing, man. And any any quarterback that is not Zach will tell Aaron Rodgers, we're not expecting you back this year. Why are you sticking with Aaron Rodgers? Because they guys, he's a 40 year old quarterback on the way out.

Yeah, I hear you. Where is A.A. Ron right now? Where he is, is up the road probably and thanks to the call, Cesar, probably right here in Marina del Rey, right, doing his rehab. I think so.

Yeah. I just leave Zach alone. Zach's coming off his bye week, apparently spent some art, you know, our and our time with his girlfriend, which is somebody somebody lit him up and yeah, that's it. If there's anybody that I would counsel, get out of New York, clear your head, come back and dominate.

It would be Zach Wilson. Hope you enjoyed his time. Come back. Clear your head. Here we go. Take on the Giants. I don't know why Bill Belichick was asked this question about about players who are eligible for contract extensions. On the team. I don't know why I asked this.

Could it possibly have been Milly Cunningham having gotten a contract extension and then sent packing and then got put on waivers just to add to the practice right again, just just for rostering. I don't know. I don't know why he was asked this, but he was asked this and I haven't seen it. But the answer, as soon as I saw it sent on the email from NFL Network, just said, this is going to be a Bill Belichick press conference moment. Let's see if my instincts were correct. Roll it. Today's Bill Belichick press conference moment. Oh, we prefer to win.

You guys do have a fair number that looks like, I don't know if it's an unusual number. But does the leadership? Next year. Is that after single? Players.

Parts of teams. Yeah, we've talked to a number of players. The ones that we've been reaching agreement with we've reached agreement with the ones we haven't. We have. So.

My instincts were spot on. That big preamble. That thing you know about because you maybe sign them or you don't sign them, you get compensatory picks like what's your philosophy, we talk to them and the ones that we sign, we sign.

The ones we didn't, we haven't. I love it. By the way, does he make himself available more than most NFL head coaches? He speaks every day. He speaks a lot.

He makes himself available. That's the right question. That's yes. Correct.

Correct. Tyreek Hill expected to go, Mike McDaniel said he does not know yet if Xavian Howard or Jalen Ramsey will go or if both of them will go. Dude if both of them go, who the hell is going to be open for Mac Jones?

Right? And I want both of them to go and be ready for the game that I'm calling in Germany. If Xavian Howard and Jalen Ramsey are up against Kansas City, let's go, right? Like let's get everyone, let's get everyone going here. What's more likely, Mac completes more passes to the, his own receivers or to Howard and Ramsey?

I don't know, man. Then you have to go tight ends or you hope Ramondre Stevenson does his thing, you know, and then you just make sure Tool holds onto the ball that one extra beat and force him to go the length of the field, settle for field goals like they attempted to do in that week two Sunday night. It was working. Long drives. It was working. Keep them all out of their hands.

Low scoring game. I'm trying to talk you up, man. I don't want to get sucked back in. You should.

You should. You're a fan. Come on, dude. Don't be so defeatist.

Yeah, you haven't been bad long enough to have this attitude to be quite honest with you. Celtics heat tonight. I'm ready to go. Pass the time with that and get ready for Sunday.

Rich's team hasn't been bad long enough for him to be this way. Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back. There you go. You got to suffer for a little bit, G. Miles Garrett's going to be on this program. Miles Garrett. Oh, yeah, baby.

Coming up. Did you guys see what I read about Miles Garrett? What'd you write when he tested positive for what Vibranium, Antimantium and Valerian Steel. All of them, Valerian, Valerian Steel, Antimantium and Valerian Steel. That's Game of Thrones. Antimantium is Wolverine, Vibranium and Vibranium is Wakanda forever, right? Yes. He tested positive for all those.

Don't scare me like that. He's a bad man. How did he not get drug tested after doing that last week? Maybe he did. And that's what he came up with. The doctor was like, that's what happened. Somebody did something great. Man, drug tested.

I got Jonathan Taylor scored a touchdown, a junk test. Does he dress up for Halloween or do you just dresses up his front lawn for Halloween? We have so many questions. I don't know. So many questions. What does he do? What does he do with the Cleveland Cavaliers now? What's going on?

When you're not scared, you don't need to dress up. Is he going to play? I don't know. Jared Allen's not playing. He could be the 14th guy. He's out.

I know that. I had to bench him on Hardin's Warm Mix Nuts, which I have already changed. You did? I did.

Gwen, what's her nuts? Did it fit? It did fit. I was going to go in there and definitely get about, you know. I just didn't have time to change the avatar, which will be that photo of James Hardin.

Chris, he could get about seven, eight rebounds. Did I get that? For sure. See if I got that photo. That's four. That's five hard fouls right there. You know, as soon as they mention Hoskins going to send me that photo and I will change my avatar to that photograph and forevermore. There it is.

In this season. Hardin's Warm Mix Nuts. That's it. That he didn't get on the plane.

I want my warm nuts. Look at that picture of Garrett. Come on.

That's vibranium right there. Every Monday, Rich Eisen and Chris Brockman react to what's happening in the world of football on overreaction Monday. Dolphins final four AFC team.

Oh, that is not an overreaction at all. I'm with you. You're in.

I am in. The other three final four teams. If you were asking me to call my shot, this is the overreaction limit podcast. My entertainment purposes only, unless I'm right, chiefs, dolphins, bills, Ravens, Ravens final four overreaction Monday, the podcast, wherever you listen.
