00:00I've been glad he was also in the locker room.
00:02Vlad, what do you have last night from the locker room?
00:06I have Mr.
00:07Jalen Phillips talking about why they love to so much
00:12and how he's such an important member of the locker room and organization.
00:17I mean, yeah, love to.
00:19We all love to.
00:20I hope you guys have seen how amazing of a guy he is, too.
00:23So I don't think anybody's.
00:26Yeah, it was a great guy.
00:28So what was he going to answer?
00:33What was he just answering?
00:33He was answering because they were asking, like, you know,
00:36to was such a great person.
00:38Like, how do you talk to them and tell them?
00:40Yeah. You know, how do you talk to that player?
00:42And all like about his career, about his. I gotcha. I gotcha.
00:46Yeah, I don't know.
00:46That's that's a tough question to ask.
00:48And it was kind of hard because they were trying to, you know,
00:50Jalen also had a history of concussions as well.
00:52Yeah, they were trying to, you know, correlate both of them.
00:56Yeah, that's I'm not going to blame anybody,
00:59but that's like one of those things where like he's just feeling for his guy
01:01right now.
01:02Look, everybody is talking about.
01:05What he means to that team as a leader and
01:10it's you already were getting drubbed,
01:13but then to also see your leader go down like that in that fashion
01:17is not only scary, but it's heartbreaking.
01:20So, hey, just hope it recovers
01:24as as fully as possible.
01:28Is there anything like the NFL that in one week, six days,
01:33you could go from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows?
01:36Now, this was like four days, but it's just it's just crazy.
01:40But that's that's why one of the reasons why I try to stay
01:46relatively reasonable in these situations
01:51because you can't be like
01:55being a fan with Tobin.
01:58Is like excruciating at times.
02:01I don't appreciate that.
02:02It is. I mean, it's excruciating at times
02:07because you are ups and downs or you want to know something.
02:11Sometimes it's excruciating to be with you, me,
02:15just even kill all the time.
02:18Now, wait.
02:19Now, why do people think I'm the one that's always mad?
02:23Well, usually it's because you're getting mad at me.
02:24Yeah, but no, I'm just saying, like.
02:28This excuse me, I can understand if this was the last game.
02:34Right. Yep.
02:35Like, there's not a lot I could say to you about.
02:40The Bills game last year.
02:41Yeah, but it's the second game, but I'm having a hard time
02:46to go get all flustered and frustrated.
02:51When you still can take care of tasks at hand.
02:55And you can still accomplish all your goals.
02:57Can you? Yeah. Can you? Sure. Why not?
03:00You're not more worried after watching some of the stuff yesterday?
03:03Well, some of the but here's the problem.
03:08Some of the problems
03:10that we thought could be an issue
03:14that we shoot away about.
03:17Or a problem.
03:18Well, listen, the coach of the GM, they're having a good laugh over it.
03:22You know, they're laughing about it.
03:24Don't worry. Laughing.
03:25Stephen Ross got some for that.
03:27You told me you were laughing, Chris Greer.
03:31Oh, you have concerns.
03:36Drafted a project left tackle.
03:39Didn't even play him yesterday in his emergency spot.
03:42Where was the giant?
03:43Maybe he would have protected Tua.
03:46Where is that? Where is that guy?
03:48Mr. Paul? Yeah. Yeah.
03:50That's what I'm wondering.
03:51He didn't play. Oh, he wasn't active.
03:54I think he was active, but they didn't put him out there.
03:56But Kendall Lamb out there.
03:57You didn't want Gregory Russo coming after him.
03:59Why not? I mean, couldn't have been no worse.
04:01It's true. What are you talking about, Vlad?
04:04You're making it sound like, oh, my goodness.
04:07If we put the young fella in, there's going to be pressure on the quarterback.
04:11If the veteran backups weren't doing too well, what do you think
04:15the rookie is going to do?
04:15He's a giant. There's a lot of giants.
04:18No, not like him, dude.
04:19He turns people into memes.
04:21Well, I mean, listen, if they put Vaughn on him
04:26and he do a little shimmy and yeah, I don't want to get crossed.
04:30By the way, Vaughn was getting to the quarterback like in the like the fast.
04:33He went to. There was a time where he did an arm move
04:37and he was so quick, the arm move was not needed.
04:40Isn't Vaughn Miller exhausted?
04:41Just get out of here.
04:42No, you know why you don't hire terrorists, you know what?
04:46You know, when you don't ever get tired, when you're winning.
04:50And also, mind you, the man had no sacks last year
04:53and he was getting paid a ridiculous. He got hurt, though.
04:56He was out for the year. No, he wasn't.
04:58No, last year was his recovery year.
05:00Oh, yeah. But I told you about that.
05:02I told you about just stuck last season. That's all.
05:05No, he wasn't quite healthy.
05:07Well, you could get at least a sack, a half a sack.
05:09You're getting paid a lot of money.
05:11Get at least half a sack and some tackles.
05:14That's kind of how I feel with Jalen, Jalen Ramsey right now.
05:17Yeah. Hey, that's another Jalen Ramsey bouncing off a lot.
05:20I was like, Jalen, I'm sorry, dude.
05:24What happened there when you had the guy completely in your arms?
05:28Like, so can we say that in the first two games, Jim Ramsey has either been torched
05:32or a sucker, you know, a fat guy?
05:36I'm just saying a little fat guy.
05:39It is what it is.
05:42Like. That's crazy.
05:46I'm just telling you, I've seen this before.
05:50I'm letting you know.
05:51I saw this with Daryl Rivas.
05:53I saw this with Daryl Rivas.
05:54Yeah, but Daryl Rivas was built differently.
05:57I'm just saying I've seen this before with great cornerbacks.
06:01They look it's still they're still good.
06:04But they're just times when, you know, speed, a little speed.
06:07They go get somebody with a little extra juice, a little extra juice.
06:11And then all of a sudden he's just like, hey, why is number five or why is 24
06:14getting beat?
06:16Marquise Goodwin did that to Daryl Rivas.
06:19Well, I mean, you pick you pick a guy who's really, really fast.
06:22What about that rookie on Sunday for Jacksonville who caught the two touchdowns?
06:26Oh, Thomas. Yeah, he was beginning by number five.
06:34See, that's the thing about the so so can I can I ask you this?
06:39I understand 100 percent.
06:42What you thinking about Jalen Ramsey
06:44and what he said about Vaughn Miller and stuff like this,
06:48about these older guys, right?
06:51Why can't I feel that way about Aaron Rodgers?
06:55He just has to throw the ball because that's as good.
06:58You see what I'm saying?
07:00You see what I'm saying?
07:01That's all. Yeah, because that's.
07:02But is that not the same stuff I was saying to you about Aaron Rodgers?
07:05I'm not knocking you. OK, I didn't stay with you saying.
07:08But what I'm saying is what they got to do is a totally little
07:11little bit different than what he has to do.
07:14What about veteran savvy?
07:16What veterans for who?
07:18For Jalen? Yeah, he is.
07:21That's why he's good.
07:22He is using his veteran savvy.
07:24But you have to admit the speed is not dead when you when you get injured like that.
07:28He's been injured.
07:30You're going to get beat.
07:31OK, and he's been beat or or when somebody just run by him.
07:37You better, you better, you better learn how to jam.
07:41Yeah, he doesn't jam.
07:42He doesn't jam. He think he could just turn and run with you.
07:45You think you like I have a moment where you threw something at your TV last night?
07:49No, it was too far away.
07:51I was in a jacuzzi. Oh, OK.
07:54I was in a jacuzzi, but I would have been dangerous for you.
07:57By the way, that sounds like good life there, Leroy.
07:58No, I couldn't do it too far away.
08:00Geez, that's not TV.
08:02I had the speaker.
08:03I got the big speaker and I have the TV. Right.
08:06And then I'm sitting in my jacuzzi with the jets
08:10and I got my little cooler with the drinks.
08:12And, you know, I get in and then when I get too hot, I just get in the pool
08:17and get out. Like once I got to halftime, I was like, you know what?
08:22I might as well just go in and take a shower
08:24and then catch some more game while I'm in bed.
08:28And then I caught like the third third quarter and then I saw that pick six.
08:32And then I was like, well, I was really hoping like, oh,
08:36that's going to die before the song.
08:38I thought he was trying to run out of bounds.
08:40No, I know he was trying.
08:41I thought it wasn't even going to get out of bounds,
08:43but I was hoping somebody wasn't fast enough to get there.
08:45And it was right there. It just wouldn't go down.
08:47Because, you know, if somebody was fast enough to get there,
08:49it was going to be a touch.
08:50It was like, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
08:51It kind of reminded me like when I watched Barry Bonds
08:53had a broken bad home run one time.
08:55Oh, yeah. And I was like, wasn't that a moment down here?
08:58Was off Josh Beckett. I was there.
09:00And so they they had to dodge the ball and the bat.
09:04I was like, and everybody that's when everybody went like this.
09:07Hmm. Hmm. Broken bad home run.
09:10Relax. Last night was not the worst game you've seen from the Dolphins. No.
09:17No, that Baltimore beat down was pretty bad last year.
09:20At least, you know, but two walked off the field.
09:22But it's just one game is is one is one game.
09:26One game. I get all of your concerns, right?
09:30But it is too much time left to go in the season
09:34for you to be acting like this December.
09:36How do you get 12 men on the field?
09:37You got to call a timeout at a halftime.
09:39That was the other thing. They were wasting time out.
09:42How do you do that?
09:43Huh? They were just out of order.
09:45Penalties on defense. They had 12 guys. Yes. Yeah.
09:50Yes. Somebody came in with the wrong signal.
09:53No, V-Man is right. It is funny.
09:55It's crazy how everything snowballed last night.
09:57It was a nightmare.
09:59It was a bad game for everybody.
10:01It's like everybody pitched in.
10:03Leroy's like, all right, can't get any worse.
10:05And it got worse.
10:06It's like as much as you like. All right. All right. That's it. Right.
10:09It can't get any bad.
10:10It got more bad. Yep.
10:12Just when you thought it couldn't get worse.
10:14That's when you thought. Yeah. Watch.
10:16However, people were trying to call up to work today.
10:21You really had no reason to because you were gone pretty early.
10:24Midway through the third quarter, people were gone.
10:25I didn't notice the traffic was easy getting in there. Hey.
10:30Somebody I'm reading something.
10:32Somebody feels your sentiments. Hmm.
10:35Leroy, I love you, man, but enough with it.
10:37It's one game.
10:39For all that is holy.
10:42Last night was just everybody.
10:44I get every listen. Just let me lick my wounds for a day.
10:47Listen, I'm not saying you can't be upset.
10:50I'm not saying you can't be mad.
10:53OK, I'm not.
10:55It was a piss poor performance, right?
10:59It was terrible.
11:02All the things that you had questions about came to a head
11:07and about an hour's worth of football.
11:10Right. So but I'm not saying that.
11:13But all I'm saying is, is that if you feel this way right now,
11:18after week two.
11:21Like, holy smokes.
11:23And I knew something was up.
11:26I knew something was going to be up after I yelled at you
11:30all day about the damn weather game time.
11:33I could see the stars.
11:36I was like. Hmm.
11:41I wish a monster would have just wiped it away.
11:43I'm sorry. Can I read this?
11:46Is this for me?
11:48Is that who's this for?
11:49No, you said no.
11:51Is it a piss poor performance?
11:53But I'm like, wait a minute.
11:53Is there a piss rich performance?
11:55Like, is there a count in it?
11:59Just give me a point.
12:00I don't know.
12:05Point for Vaughn.
12:08He just wanted to play that.
12:10No, no. I gave it to him.
12:11No, because I don't think about it.
12:13You'll be like, it's a saying.
12:14And I'm like, well, whatever you say, is there a counter to it?
12:17So no, not really.
12:18So there's a piss poor performance.
12:20I'm like, is there a piss rich performance?
12:22OK, so I think piss rich is what Steven Ross do with all the extensions.
12:26Just pissed them all away.
12:29Let me see. So point for.
12:32What are you trying to tell me?
12:36Was it the offense or defense?
12:38Let me see.
12:39I'm trying to respond to these.
12:41Oh, yeah. The chat's flying.
12:43The chat's flying so fast.
12:44I can't keep up with it.
12:48Play call was awful.
12:49O-line was blue.
12:50See? Oh, so was who's at fault for last night?
12:53Coaching or offense?
12:54Oh, everybody. Here's what I would say.
12:59Everybody, yes.
13:01Here's where the line protection
13:05wasn't the greatest because two had to hold the ball a little bit longer.
13:10The guys that he had to depend on had numbers
13:13we had never seen before.
13:16Evident by every time he threw a pick.
13:19Ten or 17 weren't on the field.
13:21Yeah. So understand there's a lot going into that.
13:26Like guys not being where they're supposed to be.
13:29Him throwing balls where he think guys that he can count on are supposed to be.
13:33Nobody's going to get thrown under the bus because they just got there.
13:36But come on.
13:38Y'all start to throw some balls.
13:39You're like, what?
13:41What's going on?
13:43No, I mean, the one that bounced off and this thing, like, I don't want to
13:48go, you're making excuses for two.
13:50Like, I'm not. I was just like, I was like, oh, that dude
13:52clearly wasn't supposed to be there. Right.
13:54That's here. Let me say this.
13:59Nobody's making an excuse for anybody.
14:01It was a terrible performance.
14:04But I know for a fact, when they go watch film,
14:08they want clarity as to why.
14:10For sure.
14:11And so when they talk about it, here are the things they're going to talk about.
14:15Like. Well, Tula had to get rid of the ball quickly.
14:20He had to get rid of it quickly and depend on guys
14:23that he wasn't sure where they were going to where they were supposed to be.
14:27Now, one of the things that that does is instead of throwing it
14:30where you normally throw it, he'll throw it where they are
14:33to try to help them out, and it just looks bad.
14:38And again, I would say this.
14:40Name a team that has two weapons like Tyreek and Waddle.
14:47And both of them or one of them are never on the field.
14:52That never happens on another team.
14:54That was something.
