We failed in doing too much football with her instead of talking about some of the things going on in her life because that always has some funny spillage around it. But when we talk about these ridiculous things, when Stugat says, and this one's super interesting to me and also a bit baffling, but even Dominique Foxworth, who is really smart...

He went to a table with Jerry Jones, sat down to negotiate with him, and when sitting at that table, presumed for a good amount of time, oh, this person knows what they're doing and got to this position because they're brilliant. And then negotiations started and he was like, oh, no, he's not. No, he's not.

Why do we do this thing where if you have billions of dollars because you knew how to do something with oil, you are then a brilliant businessman?

I know, but Dominique sat at that table presuming that that wealth bought him some intellect or leadership or palpable ability to make things that comes with the genius that other people don't have. They're just people. They're people with money, sometimes often inherited money, often money not earned or money earned illicitly. I mean, I'm rich. But this person, Rich, you are not. Oh, no, I'm not.

Well, can you guys get that video up now? Can you guys get that video up now? Because Stugatz was caught in the parking lot. Frankie Tires, he works security for us. He is someone who keeps the premises safe. And yesterday we caught Stugatz in the wild in the parking garage trying to fix his tire. And he couldn't. It was a bit of an exercise. Frankie Tires also struggled with it, correct? Correct.

He didn't deny it. How would I slash a tire? That's what we're asking. What weapon do you have me having in my car to slash a tire? Your Danny tires. But what do you have? No, he's not. He's Danny Ice Picks. Keep up. So an ice pick? An ice pick? It is cold out down there. Your cigar cutter.

I think you guys underestimate, first of all, Stugatz has a good car, and his loaners are good, and his tires are good. Not great. There are no cheap tires on what it is that Stugatz is driving around, and no, put it on the pole, Juju, can you flatten a tire with a cigar?

Maybe you had Elise do it. Ha ha ha. You think I can flatten a car tire with a cigar?

Wouldn't you guys imagine that the... weapon to take out a tire, to flatten a tire that isn't just, you know, letting the air out of the tire.
Wouldn't you guys imagine that the... weapon to take out a tire, to flatten a tire that isn't just, you know, letting the air out of the tire.
No, but what is the weapon that you imagine I would have to have in my car to do that? I think this is harder than you guys believe it is if you're accusing me of shivving Stugas' tire in an act of rage. Yeah. Or whatever the act is. I don't know what the act is, just to make his life even more difficult than it already is.

We will conduct an investigation with Frankie Tires. We will report whatever it is that we find there. I also want to say, in keeping with thanking our sponsors, long-time sponsor, 1-800-Flowers. Oh, wow. Yeah, 1-800-Flowers is back, yes, in time for Valentine's Day, which means escalating threats are beginning today to tell you what it is that I'm going to do to you.

No. More politics. Yes. Buy flowers. That's what's going to happen. Yes. What is going to happen is it will escalate in I'm just doing a political show for three months.

Buy them for us, but don't send them here. You don't have to. No, no, we're good. But support 1-800-Flowers because they're back as a sponsor, and we are grateful for the people who sponsor us. As I go back on Mike McCarthy, though, because what Chris Cody is saying is, I think, pretty interesting. Like, if we're... Most valuable franchise in sports.

We overvalue these general people who are managers. And in that case, Mike McCarthy was bringing championship pedigree while being what we all think is an administrative assistant to Jerry Jones. And then embarrassing home losses by 20 points all the time. Just didn't play a meaningful game. Dak Prescott got hurt. Obviously, that's part of it. But Mike McCarthy doesn't want to work there anymore.

When we do this stuff with the leaders... And we all saw in Dan Campbell when he was here, we all spent time laughing at that. Is the leader's job to bring the rah-rah and then just the coordinators who are outsmarting you? Because one of the interesting things that came from the reporting after Bill's chiefs is that they were talking in the reporting. They were talking to the Bill's center.

And I want to read this to you because it's the difference between the Super Bowl and not. So Osiris Torrent, it's a great name. It is. Osiris for a center. Oh, so good. He's talking about the blitz. He's talking about the last play on fourth and five for the Bills and what it is they were disguising. Mike Ryan called it satanic yesterday. He's like, they set it up is what Torrent says.

Quote, they set it up. It was like they were waiting to get in that situation all game to bring that one pressure. That the whole game they were dropping out of that and they were showing it and dropping out of it and the Bills made the call.

It's like the best strategists would bait you in on a fishing line to try and get you in just like, I'm going to keep doing this and doing this and doing this. And when the game, it gets unpredictable and it becomes, they've won 17 straight by this much. More than any team in the history of the sport. Field goal here and there.

Yes, they've got the best quarterback, but things like that where Josh Allen on fourth and five in that situation, you're hopeful if you're the Chiefs, but fourth and five for the Bills is a good situation for the Bills.

Their ability to get five yards there with Josh Allen in their offense, that's what was happening in that game where you couldn't make one mistake and then at the very end, surprise.

Of course it is. But I would also say to you that when we analyze these coaching hires, they've all tried to get that kind of attention to detail. They all try to be prepared for all of the permutations. And then Eberflus is doing the game management at the end where you're like, what are they doing?

How can it be that incompetent when, of course, it's going to look like that sometimes with a rookie quarterback? It's the way it used to look all the time with the rookie quarterbacks. Jaden Daniels is going to spoil us now. We're going to end up in a place where, oh, there's no learning curve anymore? Can you guys look for me how many interceptions Peyton Manning threw his first year?

Like, it's what it used to be, and we're making the hardest position in sports, harder than it's ever been. We're making it for people we're asking to play younger than they have or quicker than they have, and then we entrust their futures to a Dan Campbell who the media can't decide whether he knows what he's doing or not until he's 14-3.

But you say that that Andy Reid had it. He had Eric Biennemi. And now Eric Biennemi is going to have trouble finding a job. Like he was a he was a hot coaching candidate because he was supposed to be. Right. Whatever this thing is. And then no one hires him to be that thing. And then he flames out at UCLA very quickly after falling down the ladder at Mike.

My larger point is most of the people talking about this don't know what they're talking about when it comes to was that a good defensive coordinator hire. Like, we saw Fangs down here. He was plenty good. Everybody knows he's good. That's why he gets paid higher than everybody else.

The Jets make it very easy, Stugatz. These losers giving press conferences make it very easy. Look, I believe this show is now officially jaded enough. That no matter how much coaching carousel talk you want to do, we're all going to find it funny. Wait, people want Mike McCarthy? The guy who won once with what was then Josh Allen?

Tom Jordan looks exactly like Mike McCarthy. Just thick, a thick human being. But, but, But can we talk for a second? Because Jessica's criticism is fair because I yawn through all of the coaching hires. Yes, I assume that Ben Johnson will be very good as a coach because the game has been overrun by the McDaniels and the McVeighs. And so if you tell me that that's what he is.
