I am on Instagram. It is at JR sport brief insult to come to a conclusion for week one of the NFL season week we got a good game. It was a good watch Sunday night looking at the Dallas Cowboys in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It was enough to make you sick as I what what what crap on my watch and is like Jerry Jones needs to give me money for spending my Sunday night watching this by the way the Dallas Cowboys they were the only team. The only thing in week one to not score a touchdown. Thank you Dallas Cowboys thank you and so as we move on and some Monday Night Football. At least we got an entertaining game. At least Gino Smith yes Gino Smith got busy. He had a damn good start. 17 of 18 passes completed in the first half and Gino Smith. He even open up the game doing this. Take a listen courtesy a Westwood One so nice he did it twice this time. In the second quarter, Jacoby Parkinson, you at halftime. It was ultimately 17 to 13 Seattle Russell Wilson was able to connect with Jerry Judy Jerry Judy got a touchdown about that and so the first tab Gino Smith had two touchdowns on hundred and 64 yards. He was almost perfect. Passing the ball you have the goal always is Gino Smith. What am I looking at ways the real Gino Smith and then by the time we went to the second half. Although Denver finished the game with more yards and more plays things also sucked in the third quarter.

They were at the goal line twice.

They fumbled twice their running backs. It wasn't may have been a fumble. It was a fumble at the woman yard line done versus trying to get back into the game now was one fumble and they did it again with Joe Fonte Williams. This time still in third quarter and in Seattle fumbled the ball in themselves, as my wants the ball fumble fumble part fumble I what are we doing here Russell Wilson. He finished tonight 340 yards. He had that one such down to Jerry Judy.

The other four times. They wanted the damn red zone. Nothing happened. Turnovers happened zero points happened and we get to the end of the game is approximately 50 seconds left. Denver has the ball. They don't know what the hell do it they want about 20 seconds and and more off the clock. It's like a it's forth in in in five unity 5 yards.

They have three timeouts. They were on Seattle's 46 yard line to try for the 5 yards with Russell Wilson you pan him all this money do you go for it and if you don't you just stop things there. You have all his time on the clock and they just they look like they were going to go for it with Russell and and they called a timeout after a million seconds dissipate and then they decided to go for field-goal which would have been 64 yards which would have put them in front and it would've been a few seconds left on the clock in Seattle probably would've lost. This is what that place sounded like this 64 yard attempted kick want to see hearts radio network you Russell Wilson went back any lost, he was booed in pregame. He was booed when he ran out onto the field and after the game he was pretty much all fans were celebrating dating care.

Russell Wilson runs out to midfield. He greets Pete Carroll warmly. He then greets and congratulates Gino Smith who played a hell of a game and Gino Smith. In talking to ESPN. He was very clear. Gino Smith said oh yeah you wrote me off but it just take a lesson off.

I write back problem. I yeah well I don't know if Gino Smith was was going to write anybody back Mills. Even Pete Carroll had positive words to say about Gino Smith and his two touchdowns. Gino means you don't just 17 trading in the first half dozen analysts guess because this don't do that, but memory did against Jacksonville and only had like 1230 over something like that. So Gino play tonight like you complain all time even practicing that's reason look like oh yeah, he beat Jacksonville remember. Remember what he been Jacksonville no and Trevor Lawrence.

By the way, I believe he's like this, what life in the NFL is like Trevor Lawrence wants to go home so Pete Carroll praised his quarterback and of course he would, and Gino Smith. He feels like he's been written off.

Of course he has. We haven't seen him. We spoke to the man who caught his second touchdown Colby Parkinson's height and for the Seattle Seahawks. He joined us at the beginning of last hour and he talked about why he is confident in Gino Smith what it will really really well last one with them. I think I'm crazy for a guy where you try to get over there for you. Let's see what Gino Smith does the rest of the season.

We know what Russell Wilson can do, but it's going to take time with Denver new offense of line new head coach and everybody has to get together and so people are going to be very critical of what took place at the end of the game going for that field-goal but Russell Wilson. He talked after the game and outside of all the criticism he believes the Nathaniel Hackett and he was okay with that decision to go for 64 yard kick but I believe go check ugly what were you doing you don't believe in everything, you know, I anytime you can try to find a way to make a plan for the five and that's great too but also getting things wrong decision that you can make it obviously me. In hindsight you know you didn't make it, but found in that situation again. I would doubt whatever he decided okay and in the case of Nathaniel Hackett. He's the one who made the decision. What did Nathaniel Hackett have to tell the media after the game. This what he said no. I was happy got that one out away, I thought you'll hear plenty of distance on that one and just thought that we were to be able to make that in our confidence in him. And if we are to put in that situation again. I think you be able to make it he would do it. Okay.

And I gotta be honest here forth in five. It doesn't matter where your place. They were at the 46 yard line. If they don't get the fun I get it it's quote on quote only 5 yards, but come on. We seen one yards not be converted, and then if he didn't do that people will go well. Why don't you kick the field-goal salt you damned if you do, you damned if you don't I would find more issue with the confusion about whether or not they were going to kick it. They initially set Russell Wilson out there to go ahead and get the 5 yards and a million seconds ran off of the clock. They were forced to burn a timeout and then at that point they kicked it I find more issue. There, but they had time to think about it 8552124C PSS 8552124C. B.

S. Robert is going from Florida you're the JR sport Risha very well man. Thank you.

Will you help me out here.

Greg at this point I would click zero snow over Greg Prescott don't understand why Geyer. In the big game that left her current smoker that Chris got his first year in the morning light like that ever serve those course doing here. Progressive witness got blamed for the court report whole gang like you can't move all and all football quarterback start trying to grab mother got inherent found there will start drawing every bit Gary got Matt was shouldered up and I want to get your take on what Robert named me may need to out receivers yesterday besides a CD land. Okay what happened last year.

We have all love no matter how mad you you you telling me use the first thing you said to me was that you rather have Gino Smith and that Prescott saw the stand that will you asking me what the problem is, who the hell would I want receivers yesterday. I would go there that you know who you where Robert cannot cannot cannot answer.

Can you allow me to answer. I understand you're frustrated well if you asked me about last night. I can tell you about last night and I could tell you about last year as well. Okay this this two things here last night and this is Jerry Jones and Michael put all this on back okay okay the man they have nobody throw the ball to any had you protected him out there while he was throwing okay that's that's the overarching picture Jerry Jones did not invest in the offense or the team this year and it's that that's the first thing.

Second of all if I have to look at that Prescott yes it was a disappointing end to the season with the 49ers. I don't think a lot of people expected that. But if we have to look at the Dallas Cowboys in the history yeah sure this is what the 11×12 straight years that they haven't seen a conference game and I don't even need to go back 25. I know it's frustrating but DAC I am what I'm not going to do is just say will let Celeste swap out that Prescott because the larger issue starts all the way at the top and it's an issue that will not go anywhere because the issue owns the team you want to talk about that Prescott's issues last year all year coming off of of us snapped ankle that popped into two pieces.

The man through for 4500 yards and 37 touchdowns this first year back and he was running around even on a recovering ankle. It was still a bum ankle, and so yeah got bad luck you got a broken hand at the end of the game. The Dallas Cowboys have bigger issues than DAC Prescott 8552124C PSS 855-2124 CBS dog's call from Colorado. Go ahead okay Doug in Colorado, where the hell he's at fly vehicle from Chicago your CBS sports radio read how are you woke JR Reed played basketball on JR Jackson. I talk you. You think you did not like that you know you said you get what you know. Don't make this. Already, oh my God, how do we get going all the way that you not beginning what you and what what what you what year are the Chicago Bears going all the way. What year is it what okay. You will have a house you you haven't put money down on that. Have you haven't, that I know I know I don't I don't I don't like… I will tell you that I will. I know all I know. That's what I think will be honest, to be honest I don't I don't think I spoke specifically about the game against the Niners.

I know for sure in this I can be very clear on. I still believe the Chicago Bears are going to have a losing record this season and I would owe more.

I don't bet either, but I find could if I did I would bet everything I have that they are not one and no damn Super Bowl. What you will okay all, not one you know not when what to one will all is this it's one game okay.the beginning okay.

I like I like you, I love your optimism Fazio. Thank you Walter Payton suiting up for them. JR, are we not aware of something going on right now, I know I'm on earth. I love you is that much. They have one winning record in the last 11 years and they were in one game, and the going insuperable. It just shows you the state of mind that this presidency states. No, let's not. Let's not is not paint them with a broad brush because of Fazio God blessing force optimism if there's anything the world needs it's more optimism thank you flop you. We appreciate you even though your way off is the JR sport Risha here with you one CBS sports radio 855-2124 CBS.

That's 855-2124 CBS the Seattle Seahawks and the Denver Broncos.

They help Off what has been an amazing week. Want to game seat had some wild ones okay. Missed field goals, turnovers, injuries is a hell of a start here to the NFL season.

And how about this, it gets with Russell Wilson being booed in Seattle.

Sounds like Christmas if you don't like Russell. Russell Wilson, he addresses the booze that he got to start the game.

We'll talk about that they lost is the JR sport Risha your CBS sports radio you are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio you are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio will not work. Dr. Maxwell be all over the country and look for the romantic cooling now with 855-2124 CBS shots everybody role in movement coast-to-coast up and down East, West, North and South everything in between. Tonight Russell Wilson.

He went west. He went northwest he went through Denver Colorado.

His new home. He went back to the Pacific Northwest.

He went back up to Seattle and he lost 17 to 60 and before the game even started. Russell Wilson was back home and he got booed. This is the same Russell Wilson who started to plant the seeds, at least publicly of his displeasure of his potential exit. His agent started to seed out places and in locales where Russell Wilson would be okay and interested going in and any set audit request to trade so I come home and we see the writing on the wall and since then we've got enough stories and reports that it even even Seattle was at different points in time, ready to move on from Russell Wilson that there were some in the organization who felt that he was the guy in others who feel that his skills were deteriorating and that although Russell Wilson wanted to throw the ball more they will like it. We not going with that and then Russell is like Hjalmar protected me anyway and so this is for the best that Russell Wilson leave. He wanted to go and that they didn't want him there now. Which came first the chicken EVA guy who knows but the situation wasn't working in their window was done and so now he's gone and so the fans let him know about it booed. Russell Wilson was asked after the gang did the booze of fact your play did it impact you listen to the very diplomatic answer of Russell Wilson know it didn't bother me you know it was a hostile environment is all he has been hiding expecting to get get get around closet once in a while you like.

I would say I did everything every day. Your everyday anybody says anything else you are completely wrong. He can even call him a liar ASAP. I was like he's not got a call about anything.

It is Russell Wilson of: body ally to call anything but the most classiest. He is that he is. He's in rough presence and down convinced Noel don't say that I'm convinced we don't eat at you see you see you running out there these days. I don't mind us a lesson. I say when I got a get well I mean there's a lot of we don't get honest right on anybody right no one he did know Jimmy Carter's these days anymore no honesty anywhere. Russell Wilson house economy well… On up enough tonight. Despite the things now. Please know, please know anyway.

Gino Smith even have to be so diplomatic after the game. Let me remind you, Gino Smith, Micah say he played out of his mind. It's not like he did a Patrick mall homes and threw five touchdowns and need to do that, but for Gino Smith to touchdown zero interception 17 of 18 to start the game. He was amazing in the second half they really generate much of nothing, but that's a win for Gino Smith.

That's amazing for Gino Smith so he spoke to ESPN after the game and this what he said he set about people right in the Mafia it right back. Listen me off. I write back to okay not Russell Wilson dish but who is in so Gino when he spoke at the podium after the game he decided to elaborate yeah think when people say what I've been through, I think, is a stretch man on the NFL for 10 years so I'm new to say what I've been through is a skunk funny and meant to say you know people write me off. I just know working Russell. It means I never wrote back to listen to stuff like that. I just work as far as worrying about naysayers anything like that. I don't get into that type of stuff as he should, he should give a damn what I have to say he should give a damn what anybody has to say just go, do you all you can do is work we don't see you plan on Sunday. You practice and I'm not sitting around watching practice, nobody is good for you, set around wishing bad upon anybody. But what are we supposed to judge the judge Gino Smith off of a couple starts last year and is one game good he's done good. Keep it up.

All the best to infer from Russell Wilson you good for him to. I wish you nothing but the best and thank you so much for capping off what has been an amazing week.

Want to games.

It's been knots as recalled from Atlanta your CBS sports radio wall. This weekend will crazy. Tomorrow we can together are special to like. I will remember a week seeing special change. I mean even like punk coverage and I work at a sport was off. You will gain even punk coverage.

You know the way you know special teams height such a big part of this week that you know I could not Also all those gunners in all those that are you going down the field and you know ready to start a private body but real quick. JR met others feel a friend of Bengal Steeler game and honestly. Like you said you said special teams and that was the first game, I thought because I don't know how many missed field goals are still flying around out, you again this is one of only weak spot never. I can never never seen so many special-teams playing make the game on the outcome again but do you really think now that we cannot tell you a couple Muslim on the train. But the way they came out on the role, if any, of the champion and we should've lost that game you want to be but it's something about Mike, where he really really does get the best out of you rated players like looking at what was pleasing was the question yeah I think I think they got there in store for a very average season and when I say average they might be on the losing side of that average we know nobody is going 500 now with a 17 game slate, but this is this is still a restart for the Steelers and and what were going to do and thank you so much as a phone call from from Atlanta.

Yes that game was bananas were going to take a break to get some more your calls.

Obviously I know there's going to be people who want to talk about Russell and she know when the cowboys etc. I will get you on the line if you call up is a deal though. We also have to take a listen because the end of that game was wild as hell yeah I have no idea how the Steelers got away 23 to 20 but this is a fact you are right Mike Tomlin gets the best out of his players.

You are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio you were listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio that I've never called and I love I've been looking for year when your hero what you say beautiful Coley now with 855-2124 CBS the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio week one of the NFL season. It is a initially a rat as the Seattle Seahawks they spoil the return of Russell Wilson to Seattle. Seattle wins 17 to 16 over the Broncos. Denver could not get the job done in the red zone. They were over for they had two fumbles by both of their running backs in the third quarter of the game right at the goal line in the missing golden opportunities and then a 64 yard field goal went wide left some controversy around how much time was left prior to them kicking the ball and so not the greatest of starts by Russell Wilson their head coach Nathaniel Hackett primarily as they trotted make some headway here. So now we are tasked with seeing what Denver can do as they continue on with the season. It's only one game.

At least they take on Houston next better when that one Houston and the call stating nobody one that game, I'm not exaggerating game finish with the time 855-2124 CBS on the get to your calls momentarily. I did tell you that tonight wasn't the only crazy game that we gotta view merchants in the first half of Gino Smith for missed field goals are turnovers I have no idea what I watch between the Steelers and Bengals yesterday. I popped in and out of the game all throughout in an eyesore. The end I saw the conclusion I started by seeing Joel Barro throwing up a pick six and then we got to the end of the game and in Cincinnati came back to tie the game against Pittsburgh at 20 all touchdown to Jamar Chase and then they had the point after attempt block, and so instead of winning 21 to 20 over the Steelers. TJ Watt also went down with that peck injury. We don't know yet how long he'll be out.

They go into overtime. Steelers punt and then Evan McPherson with a chance to win the game in overtime for the bangles well. He missed this is courtesy of the Steelers radio network, and this to try to end the game in overtime time is on her 20 so here we are now is about five minutes left in the game and they missed that kick and then with about you know a little less than that remaining, the Steelers get the ball. They have an opportunity to put it away.

Chris Boswell. This is the bangles radio network 27 left in overtime. The staff to put down the it's on its way and the bangles will get the ball with the 45 it assisted doing. Nobody wants to hear that. So then they get another chance, another opportunity to bangles. They had the punt and so here we are a little less than a minute left in the overtime. Steelers radio network has you covered down is on its way that characters long enough since it tell you is this like slightly playing video games. At this point in life. I don't know how to do this you will you kick a field I don't what I gotta move the control he or my doing. I don't know Mike Tomlin know something he knows his team stuff. Listen to my surprise by fight I knew they would fight FL confident that I would looking for comfort but I found comfort in that. I just seen enough of that. During team development.

Obviously was a hard-fought game on both sides man always is when you NASA North is good to come down here get it done today and Mitch Stravinsky.

People want to think about him. He completed 21 of 38 passes 194 yards or one touchdown Joel Barro all man. He was abused he was sacked seven times intercepted 4×1 game folks, one game I still expect Cincinnati to ultimately have a better season than Steelers 855-2124 CBS let's get in your calls.

Let's try to get in as many before I have to roll out. Let's keep that in mind, let's start off, you would check from Dallas. Let's see how quick he can be on CBS sports radio you are calling little Harry don't understand it.

I don't think he understands the parallel between NL David had early that Super Bowl.

With a dynamic culture somehow let it get into their head that they work hard to think that and then for 25 year model drought that the rater had what where the title appearance.

In like 30 years after Matlab in the cowboys and had playoff when in 27 years.

You're absolutely right. Problems start. Don't. I can't believe they prepare better, but if you like their backup quarterback cleared labor like you wanted to pick him up yet not have your insurance policy that goes down great but it is well he's your correct just sees these old, I mean how many folks around old little power and all that money had been anything they don't Tony's call for Massachusetts zero CBS sports radio. There so God will bear David Randall. By Jerry Jones cowboys until he hired to run it being dangling again and Gino Smith dog turn into a parking and on top, but at top water we learn to hold onto the ball with two hands more down the goal line ball. I don't know what the heck out of watching man but that I know. But the one to throw up my I will hang up. Thank you.

You got a lot of money. No reason to throw up.

You got boots and still got a lot of money. I think you'll be okay.

Jonathan Colson Pittsburgh on the Charles Fort Risha Mike so I ask you? The Steelers on do you think of any point in a decade or so you think you can make it a and fear is a championship team or even shippable with how explosive our defense is not too much, often because of how average the all man, Jonathan. I could barely tell you what I'm going to eat in the morning for breakfast. I can't.

I can't think 10 years out from the Steelers this what I can tell you about the organization. There was solid organization there well-run. They have an excellent head coach. They have someone at the top of people actually respect and Mike Tomlin. They just now have to find that that quarterback so I can't look out over the next 10 years.

I can't look out over the next five. One of the things that the Steelers are doing right now which is most important is trying to compete in this transition and who knows Kenny Pickett might be that guy will have better clarity at the end of the season. Stravinsky is not going to be a long-term option.

I don't believe in.

Kenny Pickett ultimately easy school get his shot is chance markets call from Callie cannot hit it right about the coffin organ regards, why haven't had a segment on exactly like you. But I'll wait for my call to our 30 minute man yell or talk about you now want talk by Daniel Junco but I'll mark you. You're short on time. Mark right right so I want to know you got Carolyn I think we could be Carolina gal you read out in Chicago are not easily be 314 is that in the giant cart or no. Would you be shocked if all the big deck we were in favor and look can help parable.

Berkeley is back. Don't look better call play 75 yard drive the I mean this a couple of your being optimistic. Do you think the Giants are going to stop for no absolutely. And if I do start little or no. Is that if they start for know is that going to change your outlook on the New York Giants season absolutely because I have a winning Mark my words. Remember you all okay after Bella check was the top to coach in the NFL right now. The work game. Everything is a head coach.

Still, still, is he still is one of the coaches know they know anyway now. Right now that will mark Mark stop talking. No market value not stop talking Bill Belichick is still one of the bed coat best coaches in the NFL right. I will I get that you will that's fine.

I will all Peter Pan walk will I have it I don't give a damn because this spoiled brats in your you're off your rocker. I know it's good on California but that doesn't mean you have to smoke it New York Giants can go for know you know what I still believe they placed 17 games and this is a reset of the season.

Daniel Jones is unlikely to be around say quan Barclay is unlikely to be around and the button is still going to have to be reset and Bill Bella check right now, today, not one of the best in fine.

It's a grind. A ball is the best coach take Nathaniel Hackett take Pete Carroll and I got I don't know a little more than than 30, 35 years to, draw my conclusion about Bill Bella check Mike and drew that conclusion based on one game. Get with it the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio.

I just try to use a little bit of common sense that Gino Smith still has more to prove that the Chicago Bears will not go to the Super Bowl and at the New York Giants that the season is not to be some overwhelming success.

Okay, let's come down to earth. Thank you Shep. I'll be back with you tomorrow at 10 PM Eastern time, 7 PM Pacific, but don't move you on CBS sports radio because Amy Lawrence she's awesome. She's coming up next
