This is what I get started 10 PM Eastern time at 7 PM Pacific being joined by super producer and host Dave Sheppard. I'm happy to be here joined by you got a lot to talk about here this Monday night CBS sports radio. The JR sport brief show. Obviously we have a full slate of NFL games that took place yesterday that we will cover starting off with some we just had some wacky games missed field goals and injuries. Sunday night was capped obviously by the Dallas Cowboys of losing what else is new and then that Prescott goes down again.

We'll talk about that momentarily right here Monday Night Football the debut of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman on Monday Night Football. We have Russell Wilson back in Seattle. This time he happens to obviously be a member of the Denver Broncos making his first start and as of right now. About halfway through the third quarter. Seattle is winning 17 to 13 Russell Wilson in the Denver Broncos look to be pushing the ball towards the end zone and they just fumbled an opportunity to score and so for whatever reason and will get into this later on in the show. I believe that for tonight. Gino Smith and Russell Wilson that these guys have switched bodies just in the first half of this game. Gino Smith completed 17 of 18 passes 164 yards, two touchdowns he was able to sling the ball around to eight different receivers is the first time Gino Smith got a legitimate start to be a real quarterback when I say real not be some type of replacement in eight years, eight years. This is crazy.

Good for Gino Smith. I will inform OnStar to snatch all his powers or at least for him to revert back to what we seen, but hell, you never know people grow so let's see if Russell Wilson and the Broncos and by the way Russell was booed to start this game. No surprise.

Let's see if we see a little bit of Russell magic as the Denver Broncos are currently down 17 to 13. Speaking of magic, more homes had a lot of it. Alan Rogers is searching for magic from his young receiving core. Justin Jefferson is nothing but magic. Alan Rogers knows and Baker Mayfield. Ultimately, he did not get that revenge against those Cleveland Browns that he wanted. We had injuries. Max Jones, TJ Watson, there is a lot to do a lot to discuss here over the next four hours, obviously, will keep you up-to-date with Monday Night Football talk about the game as it concludes I will take your calls. If you want to holler at me the number here is CBS sports radio. It is very simple. It is 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124. CBS will follow me online. It's at JR sport brief you do that Yorty know what the hell were going to talk about tonight. First things first I got asked my main man Dave Sheppard, Shep, how did you enjoy all the NFL games that took place yesterday at JR it's is fantastic, man. You have legitimate sports back at this point between college football and the NFL and Patrick Mahon's took his lumps and then some flat at the collapse against the bangles, but look who's laughing now. JR, the MVP of week one year we got we got a lot to get into more homes. What else is new. You know people talk about you lost. Sorry Carolyn he goes out in post he still absolutely amazing how is not not hold sorry Carolyn 94 yards receiving full for Miami. Amazing job by him, but were going to get into everything that that took place yesterday, and we know where with things pretty much at.

It was about 11 o'clock 1130 Eastern time where I tweeted out of photo of Jerry Jones and I said America's team has basically become America's waste of time.

They are wasting America's time and that's what I felt like after watching all of those amazing of football games throughout the day. Close football games comebacks games decided by fuel goals not decided by fuel goals.

We have the watch Tom Brady going to Dallas. Tom Brady now the oldest starting quarterback in NFL history at 45 years old.

We have the watch and have a social gain. We had the watch.

The Buccaneers defense pretty much smashed the Dallas Cowboys and about the end of the game I'm looking at the store and I'm going with this game socks. I'm looking at a stud game here.

The Dallas Cowboys only mustered three points. The Cowboys lost 19 23, Ezekiel Elliott, 52 yards rushing Jack Prescott 134 yards and an interception and what the hell else will be supposed to expect from the Dallas Cowboys. How the hell with the Dallas Cowboys supposed to score a damn thing when Michael Gallup is coming off of an ACL injury when Amari Cooper is no longer on the squad and CD lamb he supposed to be the head guy in charge right now. He mustered 29 yards. Noah Brown has been on the Dallas Cowboys for about five years now. Does anybody know what Ellie is will now he's been elevated into a prominent spot, Dalton Schultz, serviceable, tight end in a note note.

No super game changer week the week to week and so, who can be surprised especially with the offense of line that the Cowboys stank said it last week. Be prepared for them to start the kind of disappear fall of the Americas team nonsense to dissipate and it has. And here we are, and you want to know the worst news for the Dallas Cowboys. It wasn't so much that they sucked last night. It wasn't so much that I am looking at the game. Every time I look up I go, what the hell is this. This is crap.

The scene that nobody wanted to see was Jack Prescott jogging off the field at the end of the game and why was he jogging off the field prior to the game ending in the fourth quarter was the man has a broken hand that Prescott has a broken bone in his hand.

He has a fracture near his thumb.

He's going to be out 6 to 8 weeks, and I hate to let you know this if you didn't know already, this doesn't do anything but put the stamp on the Dallas Cowboys season a little bit sooner than it would have told you this is nothing to look forward to what the Dallas Cowboys this season.

14. That led the NFL in points last season. This year they going to lead him in absolutely nothing after the game.

It wasn't so much about a watt at the Cowboys stank the water they suck. We all saw what happened. It was about DAC in his hand and Jerry Jones, the man who put this team together. The man who writes the checks the man who owns the most valuable sports franchise on planet Earth at $8.5 billion. Jerry Jones was surrounded by reporters and he dropped the news to everyone about DAC needing surgery of his joint links or disappointed fans directly for a while so well so you surprised about how long it well.

This is this is the new reality for the Dallas Cowboys now is in it. This is the new reality for what they get that Prescott pretty much started off his career with the Dallas Cowboys, then missed again 2016 to 20 2072 consecutive starts until that ankle broke on television last season he came back had to deal with it still had a great year. All things considered.

4500 yards 37 touchdowns and now in a full season where that comes back.

Now it's not his leg. Now it's not his knee. Now it's not as ankle it's his damn hand. He went from an Ironman to a broken man in his house. This is a fluke injury, but it doesn't make anything better for the Dallas Cowboys. Even DAC. He talked after the game and he said yeah hell yeah of course is disappointing. Very disappointing, but injuries happen can messily control it just unfortunate I was leaving some time and I'll be there for my team.

That's what it is more than more than anything special after the star that we just put out there want to be able to respond.

And unless you have an opportunity for several weeks, yet unfortunate, but I do have always done in time. Diversity comes to going to take on headfirst will give my best to ensure come out of this thing better yet a member. She will be gone for about two weeks. One of Dallas Cowboys post do between now and then I could tell you what, be terrible, be awful. They were going to do anything this year. Jerry Jones is doing the same damn thing he does every year.

It's getting away this not realize that hey, me being general manager me being the fact I'll coach me being owner is going to lead us to absolutely nowhere, because when things are going good.

Jerry Jones loves being at the forefront when things are going bad.

Jerry Jones loves being at the forefront board. He never does is say I made a mistake when a hell of a lot else. You don't want to pay Amari Cooper so he is gone is not a member of the Browns Michael Gallup. You know he was coming off of an ACL injury and what did you do absolutely nothing man if Michael Parsons didn't sack Tom Brady twice in the first half of the game yesterday. Things will probably been worse than what this day will end up in that's just for one game and yes it's one game but you can pretty much expected to continue to go bad for the Dallas Cowboys. You throw Cooper rush out there.

Cooper rush is supposed to be a placeholder for month and 1/2 to maybe two months of the season.

If the other Cowboys is the thing that really stinks for the past 24 hours names have been thrown out who the cowboy spring while Jimmy Garrard well you know if you're the 49ers electronic sheet tray Jimmy Garrard blow anywhere people have talked about cam Newton watt. Why would they do that then the new chief was no longer on the team. So I go let's bring in Nick falls, here's the situation I gotta be honest year. There is not a quarterback who the Dallas Cowboys can bring at this stage of the season that's going to do a damn thing that's going to make them incrementally better they will literally go for maybe getting beaten down every week to getting beaten down a little less so they going to trade some low-end draft pick to procure a veteran quarterback. Maybe we probably should. If they want when avoid embarrassment, but this is something that the Dallas Cowboys should've taken care of throughout the course of the season and now they're going to pay for not just in the standings, not just with their record, but in the court of public opinion. The wide receiver core, which pretty much had Cooper in Gallup and Lamb is now me. You and your next-door neighbor. The offense of line is in tatters is in shreds and the quarterback that Prescott the fact that he doesn't have or had a legitimate veteran backup is not put the Dallas Cowboys in garbage time just stinks that it's going to start a whole lot earlier than anyone would have hope for and you can blame the blame.

You can lay it at the feet of Jerry. It ain't never my fault. Jones poor Mike McCarthy's man's going to get the boot sooner than later the JR sport ratio here with you on CBS sports radio. We had given anybody the boot here were going to do is take a break. The phone lines open if you want to holler at me. That's 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS and speaking of the boot were going to get it to Scott Frost this hour as well. He got the boot from Nebraska, but when we come back instead of talking about Mike McCarthy who, sooner than later. We know Jerry Jones modifying him little talk about a new head coach who just picked up his first victory. Mike McDaniel get it done in Miami will talk about that on the other side is the JR sport ratio CBS sports radio you are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio to the owner wants to hear from you coldly, you know, 855-2124 CBS 855-212-4227 JR sport ratio here with you on CBS sports radio I can keep up with the fumble sunlight Monday Night Football Seattle Seahawks still currently leave the Denver Broncos, 17 a, 13, about a minute left here in the third quarter. We just got fumbles all over the place Denver fumbled the ball.

Seattle fumbled the ball a few minutes ago, Denver fumbled the ball again and now Seattle has it back and it's just it's a fumbles on. Nobody wants to put this game away and will obviously keep you up-to-date as it moves on, the fans in Seattle love nothing more than sending Russell Wilson back to Denver with the Lawson tunnel. Russell Wilson would love nothing more than to leave Seattle with the victory and I'm sure post game he's going to have some very positive, interesting, and introspective and thankful comments regardless of whether they win or lose.

Speaking of a win we open up the show, talking about the Dallas Cowboys, something that they did not lose Tom Brady walked away with that victory and and good for him.

By the way, right before the game started his his wife Gisele Booch and decided to yell, give gold plate will not patriot such as Ovaltine go Buccaneers and go Tom Brady and so I guess that means all is well on the Western front. I guess now someone who actually want a football game. His first football game.

He even have to place the head coach, it's Mike McDaniel. This is the latest boy wonder in the NFL's man went to Yale.

He was the offense of coordinator working with which Shanahan out with the 49ers and we know that he took over for Brian Florez and so what is that mean you go to the Dolphins you go to the AFC East you go to the AFC East you coach of the division. That's pretty much been ran and champion by Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots for the better part of 20 years and so you open up the season against Bill Bella check and what do the dolphins do they beat the brakes off the patriots were talking fumbles strip sacks. The defense scored a touchdown off of the fumble interceptions. Mac Jones at the end of the game after the game, they announced that this man was out with a back injury today.

Monday we learned that they were back spasms and that Mac Jones should be okay for the again their next game against the Steelers, but they went down to Miami like a full week ahead just so they can get acclimated to practicing in the heat and the humidity and it didn't amount to a whole lot of nothing as the Dolphins beat the Pats 20 to 7. They now own a four-game winning streak against the New England Patriots and Mrs. of course is going to be easier to do when you don't have Tom Brady snowing around a rock to its envelope with 270 yards passing a touchdown to Jaelyn Wada who went 42 yards for the touchdown. This is what you expect an entire Ricoh no longer with the Kansas City Chiefs, but Tyree kill 94 yards in his dolphins debut and even a big play call from Mike McDaniel on fourth now to pretty much help secure this game so after the game Mike McDaniel. He the head coach was awarded with the game ball but he decided that everyone on the team was worth 100. I'm know if that makes any sense, but will I know how play in the NFL and Mike McDaniel. He had this to say and share with his squad and they love them. They know what I'll take that and I'll return it back to everybody's get to gamble at the start of it all the buildup. I'm so proud we could feel it. During the game you were necessarily going the way that we wanted to, but we didn't crack okay we are complementary. 30 turnover battle yet before Mike McDaniel no coaching experience goes in there and beats Bill Bella check on his first go around. Not not easy, not something simple to do any offense for the Dolphins.

It looked exactly like most of us would figure it to look like give the ball to waddle give the ball to Hill and let them go out there and generate the rest of the offense. We know the Buffalo Bills of the cream of the crop in the AFC East. We know the New York Jets well if one seems cream of the crop in the New York Jets are just not on your dumpster fire New York Jets. What else is new. They lost their game to the ravens and will talk about the ravens later on in the show was Lamar Jackson turned down.

Reportedly, a gigantic deal. The bills are at the top. The Jets are at the bottom and in the in the middle you have the Dolphins and you have the patriots and maybe this go around the Dolphins will will end up on top of the Pats in the standings will say Bill Bella check in a most Bill Bella check in way. He said you folks this one game does not define the season but I know he's thrilled and he's happy that at least Mac Jones in his back is not a massive injury, but it's only spasms, so he should be okay 855-2124 CBS.

That's 855-2124 CBS Manny is calling from Flushing. Manny your CBS sports radio was going on which Al Gore well my brother are your dormer got you is good to have you. Many was a good man rare dark actor. I care about what would Lobato valve cowboy that every American waiver will come alive 45 years of the year Jerry Jones as well.

Like Dan, thank the good Lord our God log cowboy. But anyway all the fate of the breaker may feel. Be careful what you wear is for report by goodbye you are being built one of the brow got rid of your great love that.

That is why the US onto my job all year that the New York Giants actually came through with a big win. And thank you Manny for calling from Flushing New York Giants came up with a big win last night almost didn't happen, but they did.

You gotta give credit where credit is due. You have a head coach of the players seemingly actually respect and enjoy in a cowboy zone outside looking in many subtle lot there even mentioned Baker Mayfield wasn't gonna last for Baker was a gonna work out in Cleveland.

He didn't want Cleveland.

Cleveland didn't want him its own eyes gone and I'm pretty sure after some time in Carolina with the Panthers and he and Colby wanted there as well. Welcome to life as an NFL quarterback welcome the life and in and in football you to get the job done or you don't. And if you suck they find a replacement.

It's a dog eat dog world. It's pretty funny right now. If you think about quarterbacks in the game. We saw a lot of performances last night or yesterday, I should say that start off week one. You see, Jaelyn hurts looking like an improved quarterback for the Eagles. You see, Justin Fields and Trey Lance battling it out in the rain in Chicago. Fields comes out on top and Trey Lance looks like a disaster and you think about all the quarterbacks who already been nicked up and dinged up in and have questions about their future and what they'll do and not do. It's like we got NFL teams that will hoard veteran quarterbacks just in case things don't work out just in case you talk about the Cowboys lack of a quarterback and all my God. Well, maybe Jimmy G that the 49ers want to just get rid of Jimmy garrotte below.

In short, Trey Lance was running around in the rain. You think they just wanted to read and fall things on my God the New York Jets they lost to the ravens, what would the Jets look like if Joe flock over who can't move to Winchester is left over his right.

What would they look like at the quarterback position.

If Joe flock. It wasn't that will be just get Mike White maybe we should get used to this because Zach Wilson could never stay healthy. So while world and the NFL. And it's only been one week. We've had some crazy plays. We found some wild ones and will get into more of it as the show continues. Speaking of a hard knock life or my college football fans, you probably saw wild game on Saturday between Alabama and Texas and then today talking about a wild one and not living up to expectations. We had a college football coach and he got the boot he supposed to be the native son. They don't care about you and you're losing him to tell you about Scott Frost on the other side of the break's the JR sport preshow here with you on 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 JR pleasure to speak. Recently discovered your show a few weeks ago. Gotta tell you that you got a very easy listening style holy now with 855-2124 CBS's the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio. Speaking of easy, it is not so easy. Not right now. At least for the Denver Broncos and Russell Wilson in his return to Denver right now is you just serve remarkable Lettie and I will re-share with you the Seattle Seahawks currently lead still lead 1713, we seen a lot of fumbles a lot of turnovers and now here with the Broncos in a goal line situation that we even see a penalties and so Russell Wilson trying to walk out of here with a victory about six minutes. 6 1/2 minutes left in this game and I guess I'm not surprised or shocked shop.

Were you surprised that that Russell Wilson got booze in his return. I mean what you think. I think there's a consensus that he's one of the most calculated scripted people in history professional sports. You don't get a lot of genuine candor. You don't get a lot of raw emotion.

The way you got from a camp chance their unity and an autonomous of Richard Sherman.

I don't think he has ingratiated himself to the fan base. The way those guys have still not surprised whatsoever it's it's interesting because for long time. I do want to say it's fans in Seattle were just drinking the Kool-Aid, but I feel I can so maybe last year people got a little tired of it. But for the most part. A lot of it was just I don't know if I'd say he eat ingratiated himself into the community was a part of the group to to lead or or push for the return of the Seattle Supersonics. I've seen Russell Wilson up and out in the community and and be heavily involved. I just think towards the end it was little worn out and now I think I think the players in the organization felt a little bit more. That way in. I'm very interested win lose or draw on right now of Brenda McManus he he had a field-goal to bring this game a little bit closer.

Denver Broncos are now down 16 to 17 still plenty of time for a come back here I want to know what he's going to say post game utilities can a satyr tear you you you alluded to at the beginning.

He's guessing the right thing. There's nobody that says the right thing more than Russell Wilson. I think that's what fans don't appreciate at the end of the day they were Lucky's machine. Well, I think Denver Broncos fans. Maybe they don't give a dam right now is the best quarterback they've had its Peyton Manning is and before that obviously John Elway is so Seattle and in by the way Gino Smith, I'm still waiting for him to just turn the ball over. I don't know where he's going, but we'll talk about Gino later on in the show.

This still a lot left to be written here tonight. I think when it's all said and done, let's fast forward 10 years from now fans in Seattle won't care anymore. The Oakville love or like Russell Wilson may be like is is more appropriate for how he laughed and in the circumstances, but he is and he's an interesting guy, you know, for different reasons than than other athletes. I wouldn't call him polarizing, but he's he's certainly in that space. People either love or more. I don't like him I can't stand him and let's see what Russell does here at the end of this game he can certainly add to his own personal highlight reel if he gets a win.

This is obviously one of the biggest games of his career will get to them and keep you up-to-date as it moves on. Right before we went to break. I did mention to you. Speaking of the someone who was loved and speaking about someone who was appreciated since college football. You don't have to look any further than Scott Frost and the Nebraska corn huskers. This is someone who won a national championship one a title with the squad in 1997, Nebraska product sucking over the past I don't know old decade plus this one of the most accomplished programs in college football. Scott Frost was there quarterback when they won a championship in 1997 he took over the squad in 2018 2018. He took over well heading into his fifth season. This man has already gotten the boot three games into this year under his watch. Nebraska has not seen a ballgame there. Five and 22 11 score games they never won more than five games in his tenure, and they fired him. I saw this score and I said whoa. Wait a minute. This actually happened. I am here in Georgia and when I saw that Nebraska lost to Georgia Southern 45 to 42. I said well that is a is not something that allows you to keep your job, especially with this is one of those out of conference games where a team is pretty much paid a mill plus to show up and get smacked down except for Nebraska paid him and that once they got their asses kicked $1.4 million Georgia Southern was paid, they had 642 yards of offense, let me say that again 642 yards of offense, were they not prepare they not show up on me was Scott Frost going to tell everybody about how bad or difficult it was to recruit like 642 is like the ball was snapped in the defense just sat down you actually have fans after the game in Nebraska. The fans expect better of course they were chanting for Scott Frost to be fired. And that's exactly what happened.

He got the boot.

He's no longer the head coach and this is how bad it is.

After going three and nine. Last year he won't see a damn thing this season but he is going to see his money. Yes, a $15 million buyout and this shows you how bad they wanted him gone if they would've waited until October 1, they really only have to pay him half of that. They couldn't wait to and I have three weeks they needed to get his ass out here today and that's what they did so Nebraska heading into another season which is basically going to be a waste of time and Scott Frost who was a one of those native sons who comes home to to help save and fix the program just the guy was going to walk away with a big check for getting fired, and who knows the next time you be able or step back and actually be appreciated and love. This would probably be the swansong for him as a member of the organization and I can forget the championship then I can forget the fact that you came on as a coach and you sucked. It's not easy.

Another big game this one I paid attention to starter all Saturday afternoon.

Started off college football Saturday. It's Alabama and Texas. I sat right here with you on Friday night and I said I have a full expectation for Alabama to pretty much give Texas in early indoctrination as to what life in the SEC will look like what it will feel like but I gotta give credit to Texas. They hung in there.

It was 1010 at half time, Texas took a lead late in the game with a field-goal Alabama one view field-goal. They knocked out Texas quarterback when Ewers early in the game. This man has a sprained clavicle. That's a collarbone for anyone who's not fancy like me and Alabama walked out, despite their penalties. Despite this sloppiness in Texas. They walk out with a little bit of confidence knowing that, wait a minute. We just hung in there with the number one ranked team in college football, and after this victory in the way they did it. Alabama is now ranked number two to Georgia. The Bulldogs they beat Stanford over the weekend. 33 do nothing and so Georgia is now number one.

And so if you're Texas. If you are Steve Sarkissian, if you let your team to hanging in there and being close sure it's not a moral victory, but every body will start to talk about Texas and the Longhorns and how much they can continue to improve. But how good they are. Sark said he wanted to quote his old coach Nick Sabin who he almost beat. He doesn't want any of his players lapping up the rat poison. I think first of all to call our boss.

Gotta be careful the rat poison of the people tell us how good we are. Which which is important deal. We could go ever tell us how bad we were.

Now this week Avalos to tell us how good we are and we gotta be careful to quiet the noise outside of our building and focus on us. Be enamored with us and focus our preparation. I think I think that's the first part coaches of funny that was gotta find some type of method of motivation I say a whole lot of nothing.

Clarice press conferences, and you gotta cross your fingers that you can agricultural on you can get something out of him. He says are you guys said we suck last week New York Jets coach Rob Sahl after losing to the Baltimore Ravens. He spoke to the media today in solids just like you, we didn't.

We did lose the game. They didn't beat us you know we lost was stop splitting hairs. Man is so congratulations to Sark you hung in there with the old coach Nick Sabin. He almost did it.

It took a field goal to knock you out, but we know Alabama was still going handout asked Wilkins the rest of the season. We know that Texas will be okay and I give it a few years when Texas moves over into the SEC and bill that will be competitive. But there probably will still be ASP opens a comment so sure your you gotta take the victories where you can get him even when you lose let's stop stealing the phrases from Nick Sabin. I don't need to hear about rat poison anymore's the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio. Speaking of taking victories where you can get on somebody check on Alan Rogers's medical check on it right now is that they plan what a bunch of biomass wide receivers you can already tell his patients is running that will talk about it on the other side is the JR sport preshow CBS sports radio
