You are listening to the Dan Patrick show on Fox Sports Radio.

What up. Good morning to you. Dan Patrick show Fox Sports radio Rob Parker Doug Gottlieb alongside you can listen to the odd couple that Rob and Chris Brussard co host daily from I gotta get my my I struggle with my East Coast times there Rob.

That's seven to ten East that is correct. Yes indeed. And the Doug Gottlieb shows daily three to five Eastern time 12 to two Pacific and of course we have a one hour live pod that drops it at five Eastern every day.

I think you'll enjoy that one is called in the bonus. Meanwhile look we got lots of stuff to get to Michael and Barti's going to join us course long time NFL executive.

He'll be with us later on this hour. We're still trying to figure out the college career thing. Right like now two different teams look at look at the physical is like yeah I don't know there.

You know what I'll tell you this if I'm if I'm the Matt some doing a forest gump. Run Matt's run. We'll get to that.

But I would be running the other way something doesn't feel good to me some something appears something appears now I mean who thinks the 12 of your contract is a great idea anyway let alone a 12 year contract with somebody's got something in there in their physical that that now two teams really really don't like will react to last

night's game where the chargers late in the game kind of dominated and they're on their way to the playoffs and we'll see how they finish and the colts are on their way to likely new head coach and definitely a new quarter

back in staff and then the the news of yesterday was that Nathaniel Hackett was relieved of his duties so what we had thought ends up coming to fruition and now the question becomes you know is there a coach that can fix this thing in Denver because you're not you're not moving off the

quarter back not not in any way you have NBA stuff as well trade deadline is looming course stop me for this for Anthony Davis is out but I want to start with with this roba as we we look at the NFL we only got a couple

weeks left the NFC it looks like Niners Eagles and then maybe somebody else right maybe Packers slide in late I don't know but those are the two best teams aFC a little bit more open but bangles chief spills maybe Ravens Lamar's healthy maybe they

back in the mix those are the those are the best teams charges have the talent but still not healthy and haven't proven in the playoffs it's hard to jump on there it's really interesting that as the playoffs expand we're really kind of contracting who can who can win this thing.

Yeah I think that we don't really know it really you can pick a couple teams and say hey I really like this guy like that guy I mean I love what's happened in Cincinnati I gotta I was wrong I had them not making a playoffs Doug

before to season started I just I didn't see it but I'm wrong why did you why again like help me with because the way I look at things is I get it but

what did Pittsburgh make you think that they're gonna be better to think Cleveland was gonna know I just thought if you remember last year's not like they were 13 and 3 I mean you know they were I think 10

and 6 is what what their record was so they got in and then you know they want some games and and things worked their way patching my home

was a pick in the AMC chance remember they were losing big time in the first half and they and my homestose a pick in his own zone and his own end which allowed them to win on a

field goal whatever so a lot of things went right and they played fine and all that but I've seen teams do that and in the next year not

make it not not make the playoffs not you know when I was looking at them saying man a lot of things went right are they gonna do this

and they start out on two so I'm feeling like okay I'm in cover Nana Felt says 1987 and there two and four and maybe I am right and maybe I'm
