Happy Monday nights are you I am coming to you live from the rocky mortgage studios whether you're looking to purchase a new home or refinance yours. Rocket mortgage can help you get there for home loan solutions that fit your life rocket can. Okay, I will be here with you for the next four hours.

This is when I get started every single week night 10 PM Eastern time, 7 PM Pacific on being joined by super producer and host Dave Scheiber, and more importantly I'm being joined by you get everybody listening all over North America on the free Odyssey app on your local affiliate on Sirius XM channel 158 and all smart speakers. However, you listen I'm just glad that you're here look obviously more than a recap of all of yesterday's games in the NFL is a game going on right now in the NFL. To conclude, week five. Yes, week five of the NFL season, it's about to be a wrap.

By the time I finish this show right now just underway in the third quarter, the Las Vegas raters. They leave the Kansas City Chiefs 20 to 10 I treated quite a few things over the past us several minutes. One of them being these are the raters are the raters legitimately going to hold onto this lead.

Let's see if the raters can actually hold on. They don't have the greatest of histories and beating these chiefs asked Derek Carr. It's not looking too good for him. When it comes to playing in arrowhead, let alone playing anybody who wears red and yellow Las Vegas up 20 to 10 a little less than 13 minutes left in the third quarter obviously will update you with things continue on if you want to keep up with me. By the way I mention Twitter. It's at JR sport brief on Twitter on Facebook or Instagram. If you follow me on social media. You will already know what we're going to talk about tonight. It's not just today's game or tonight's game between these raters and the Chiefs. We saw some interesting wines. The Cowboys won another football game with Cooper Rush.

They beat the defendant Super Bowl champs. How about that the two teams that represent New Yorker winning both the Giants and the Jets. It's rather confusing. I just mention the Cowboys and Giants or Eagles are five and all the NFC East is the place to be right now. Major league baseball continues on as we move towards the divisional series. The divisional round starting tomorrow.

Wildcard seams are done, the Braves are looking to defend their championship. The New York Mets, they have been embarrassed and not moving on anything but the vacation Tom Brady is been babied. We had another guy get babied tonight or Derek Carr had a 300+ pound man fall on him and he called Ross Ruffing on the guy Chris Jones and so will get into that and we even had a head coach who already got the boot. It's Matt rule limits talk about him momentarily.

855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS. That's if you want to give me a holler. Throughout the course of the night will get your calls.

Of course, is what I do before we move on any of that. Hey Shep, how was your weekend meant it was it was good. JR not listen only to look at is with the Mets 101 season got them and realize how good my weekend was how was your sir all the Mets fans a weekend sucked right as I went. I'm in use will have the weekend last 35 years. I knew how it however you want to slice a light guide you talk about losing elimination games on your home field. I mean, that should be synonymous with the middle name at this point what losing on the field yet know when I got home field advantage answer all you know well what what will get to the New York Mets and is as long as I guess there going fan base hasn't suffered enough.

Let's go ahead and palm on will do that next hour let's start off with another guy that's that the New York Mets got the boot as a team in the way that they went out was just absolutely hilarious. You got the manager checking a man's ear force a foreign substance. I almost died. I loved it anyway. It was great theater, but besides that it wasn't great today for Matt rule who is now the former head coach of the Carolina Panthers. There's nothing worse than walking into work on Monday and get in the boot is nothing worse than walking in over the weekend and just being sold name in the front door was right there you can go ahead and walk the hell right out of it and sure, not every job is like the NFL you perform on Sunday you go to work on Monday or if your Matt rule you get the boot. The Carolina Panthers have an interim head coach and Steve Wilkes.

Yes, the man who had to run another disaster out in Arizona with the Cardinals. You might recall that he had Sam Bradford as his quarterback. Not the greatest or best of situations, but Matt rule was brought into Carolina to be the guy David Tupper who is one of the richest human beings on earth plan around all that that investment capital this man decided to give Matt rule two years ago he gave him a seven year $62 million contract. I guess because Matt rule bamboozled the hell out of a billionaire who never ran a football team. So much so you got Matt rule and Scott Fitterer it's not like these guys were even connected at the hip. Matt rule was was pretty much helping to run the dam. Shep, that's the situation here.

So Matt rule comes over from sample where he basically helped flip things from 111 211 and one he goes to Baylor helps turn things around. There basically is a couple coffee in the NFL and boom. Now he's a head coach. I guess he smooth talked Mr. Tupper back when he was introduced January 2020.

This is what Matt rule told the media. I want you to listen to what he said he was going to do and then I'm going to tell you what the results were. I like to be told on the cutting edge of things are happening in in football and I think for me there's some simple truth about football you have to run the ball. Stop the run get go to create big plays in and stop the place and so to me, and we want to do is best for players to build around the quarterback and I know I got a questionnaire about so I have to get in here and can find what people do well, but the we we we don't want to be a stale team want to be getting this explosive dynamics on the watch, but I do know this will win if you don't play great defense. So to make sure that we start there. Then, make it over the officers and Shep Werther with the Panthers fun, exciting to watch. Cutting edge would you say no well yeah and that's why this man got the boot. You know this man looked at quarterback play.

We know what the Carolina Panthers have been if you're listening to me right now and you're in the car with someone and you have no idea about the NFL or the Carolina Panthers.

Let me just give you a quick recap. This is a team that had a guy named cam Newton you want an MVP in 2015 helped take him to the Super Bowl on his back in a great defense and they ultimately lost cam Newton plate so damn hard that he became a broken human being. Cam Newton is no longer in the NFL since cam Newton was basically broken on the way out the door. The Carolina Panthers have not been able to find anyone to throw the football. That's basically what it is Ron Rivera boot Matt rule in Teddy Bridgewater not the answer five and 11 2021 they decide to bring in Sam Donald.

They traded for Sam Donald from the New York Jets they sent three draft picks to this year. One last year. They sent three draft picks to the New York Jets who actually look like they might have a quarterback now, and Zach Wilson and that didn't work out. They went five and 12 in this year all my God they had to go ahead and in trade for Baker Mayfield Baker Mayfield is broken right now Baker Mayfield can even play.

He left the game yesterday, the 49ers, they beat the Panthers 37 to 50 Baker Mayfield is in a boot.

Sam Donald hasn't even been eligible to play. His leg is also busted up.

What are we doing here. They had no choice but to let him go and David Tupper's been holding onto this guy for way too long but here's the kicker must be nice to be a coach in the NFL. It must be nice to convince a billionaire to give you a seven year deal, of which many, many owners weren't happy about that.

Setting that type of precedent Matt rule has $40 million remaining on his contract.

This is year three out of the seven year deal. If this man does not get a job coaching in college. If he gets a college job Panthers don't have to pay him anything but Matt rule can sit at home for the next four years and get approximately $835,000 a month for the next four years to do absolute. We nothing is going to be in demand. Back on the college scene, knowing what he did at Temple knowing what he did at Baylor. They looked at him as a program builder will how many how many of these these college coaches move into the NFL and then go and have success. How many of them think of the big names.

What a Nick Sabin do you left is the biggest name of them all. How about let's move on.

The recent history. What happened with urban Meyer or he was able to bamboozled the con's. He came through when he was a program builder and nobody wanted to listen to him.

He got the boot. His behavior was just awful. At least Matt rule wasn't hanging out with young women were in his wife and so Matt rule is the first head coach to get the boot. The team had no idea. None whatsoever.

How to move the ball.

They certainly weren't cutting edge. They were cutting anything, they ended up on the cutting room floor. And so when you start thinking about the talent on the team if you thought Baker Mayfield had a chance to continue on his career after this year as a starter.

All man highly unlikely. Not happening.

Disaster Sam Donald is nothing but a career backup as well. What happens what Christian McCaffrey right now three years, $40 million left on his deal is somebody going to try to trade for him were they afraid that he will be hurt DJ Moore doesn't have anybody to get him the football, we know Robbie Anderson. He just wants to go deep. Maybe he'll go deep on another football team as a deep threat. The Panthers have been pathetic. The nail in the coffin was trading for Sam Donald and then the final nail if you want to the put Sue in their you have to bring in Baker Mayfield. This is awful. Absolutely terrible and it starts to make me figure out or think you know who will be next on the Washington commanders fans they want Ron Rivera out the building and he's been dealing with a similar situation knows my quarterback Alex Smith have to come in and save us at the end of the season. Ryan Fitzpatrick goes down and then I got out I got a roll would hi Nikki all year.

Now we have to bring in Carson Wentz is bad. I mean even Washington. They lost of the Titans 21 to 17 I guess there's something between this Virginia Carolina connection with nothing But losses the terrible situation. Matt rule fire. The fans in Washington.

They want to new owner.

They wanted new coach. They want to know everything and I can't blame this week five week five isn't even done yet and we've already had our first coaching casualty Matt rule can sit at home and count $835,000 a month. Forget working. I am going to college I go back coach college and four years I'm going on vacation. Maybe Ron Rivera will join him as the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio.

Those are two teams in the negative. Right now, let's take a break. The phone lines open if you want to talk to me 855-2124 CBS I want to talk to you about two teams just right up the road a little bit further than that. Were having success. The Jets's the Giants. It's the start of the JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio you are listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio show your wants to hear from you: no. 855-2124 CBS 855-212-4227 JR sport preshow here with you on CBS sports radio Monday Night Football. The Raiders are trying to hold their lead against the Kansas City Chiefs. 20 to 17. For now, the Raiders always going to writer we opened up the show, talking about Matt rule. The first head coach to get the boat here so far in the NFL season and only took him five games. The Carolina Panthers are currently one and four.

You could deftly make the argument. This God should've gotten the boot longer than that. When you think about the investment made it to him by David Tupper. What a massive mistake.

Two years ago given a seven year $62 million contract in all things concerning probably should've been given the boot last year, but now and so he finds a college coaching gig if he wants one. He's gotta be making $40 million for the next four years $835,000 a month.

Good for him, visit quite a few people who want Ron Rivera to be given the boot next. But come on stage running around Carson Wentz is his quarterback simple 855-2124 CBS. This 855-2124 CBS to talk you about the Giants.

The jets to New York teams were actually winning games before we do that, let's talk to Carlos each call from Charlotte your CBS sports radio calls. All amazing art done though. You know, talking about Matt rule for myself living in Charlotte and basically fear what we saw yesterday. You know, obviously, nothing against the 49ers and their fan base object if they travel well as you can as everybody can be your dog yesterday game and live yourself look more about 49ers home game than it really did a Packers game honestly and I mean. And unfortunately for a lot of people that I'm going to the national media perspective from you guys and everybody locally we have every day and what Baker Mayfield and everything else.

Unfortunately, the end result of that, I mean people and not of been pretty much rejoicing that will be a fire. Not that I might belt what: for better nothing but at the end of the day when you're not winning and you have literally people that are not even bothering to showing up your games anymore. I think it pretty much shows that it that I'm not speaking for everybody in Carolina or any other member fan on that one, but it needed to happen if they did that happen what whatever happens in the future. Obviously, we don't know. Obviously people are invited that he woke the local guide veneer from the get go with getting the shots would be told for the evening, but what we have again.you know Mr. JR by anything that you set a lot that obviously might not by felt that that dagger in the heart a little bit but you know only what the owner came out that the fans want. Obviously the opportunity to avoid somebody out now and I know and it may not happen.

Now I find out I'll take that laughter from everybody around the world, but at least we are one of the few families that want that comparison other people around the NFL will thank you, Carlos will close in Charlotte. I think most teams and fans want to win or hoist the Lombardi trophy. I think everybody knows that you actually have to have a good quarterback to get there and please don't tell me about Trent Dilfer. If you want the best chance to win a Super Bowl, you need a quarterback.

I was in Charlotte a few months ago.

I'm standing outside the stadium, taking photos, making jokes about hey if they need a quarterback they can ask me, I'm healthier than the two guys that they got Sam, Donald and Baker Mayfield.

Okay fine I get it. It's the NFL that stop you. Sure, guys get hurt but my point is you got to quarterback and you have none. It's really that simple. And they got two of them enabled her. It's a bad situation. 855-2124 CBS beacon of a bad situation. Let's let's talk about some positivity hero quick write up the road.

I guess we can go up I-95 and you know from DC. We talked about Ron Rivera potentially getting the boot fans want him to get the boot. Carolina, the New York Jets and the New York Giants are actually winners. First of all let's get to the jets the Jets have a record of three into the Jets beat the Dolphins last night or yesterday afternoon.

The final score 40 to 17. The running game look great. The young players look great sauce, looks like one of the best cornerbacks already in the NFL and sure they beat it seems third string quarterback, but let's give the New York Jets some type of credit for three into their 500 the New York Jets heading until yesterday's game they lost 12 consecutive games in their own division. Let me say that again the New York Jets lost 12 consecutive games against the bills the patriots in the Dolphins. We know this. They been one of the worst teams in the NFL over the past several years, and so coach Rob Salazar knowing that they finally you're on a the positive side of 500. He says a beat up on the Dolphins 40 to 17. It's a great way to end the streak is awesome. I received yours one would envision games double-digit ones are hard to come by in this league 40 points all that all the good stuff Melia. Well, it enjoyed a 40 to 17 victory, because the next opponent for the New York Jets. They they may come back down to earth at 500 which is still an accomplishment for the New York Jets they got a go to Green Bay to take on a Packers and yesterday the Green Bay Packers they opened up the slated games in London against another New York team the Giants and the Packers lost to the Giants. The final score.

There 27 to 22, seems like the New York Giants. The defense came up with every necessary stop seem like when Daniel Jones needed a first down. His broken ass was running for one say Quan Barclay came into the league came into the game leading the league in rushing. They have no wide receivers part of the offense of line is busted up but they are playing heart for new head coach Brian day ball and yeah the Packers losing to the Giants in London. I'm going to assume that when they take on the jets they are going to light them up. Meanwhile, for the Giants are they got the ravens next and unless the ravens are going to choke away victory will make a close and they'll probably be underdogs again. Meanwhile, Brian Dabo says sure we beat the Packers in London. The Giants are four and one Brian Dabo says year we can get too carried away and we only played five games so this is a very humbling we can get quick so focus on the next game. Things again.

We can do better which there are certainly plenty of them will continue to work and try to improve in those areas.

But it's all about our team and try to get better each day. Everything.

It's like the New York Giants are put in their own their own selves up against the wall.

This is supposed to be a rebuilding year. I expected the New York Giants to look at Daniel Jones and say hey just try to keep us in the game and at the end of the season will probably give you the boot. They didn't pick up his 50 year option if they want to keep him around that the probably half the franchise tag Daniel Jones is not turning the ball over the Spanish third in the NFL in rushing right now behind hurts and in Lamar NEC's. These doing good all things considered, say Quan was leading the league in rushing from a running back's perspective defenses plan solid and the Giants a foreign one which just seems like an accident. Every time that I have to say. Let's see if they go five and one against Lamar at MetLife Stadium this we also know ravens on a fan of that turf. Let's see what happens at play the New York Jets there. So congratulations to the two New York teams at least they help brighten things up. I mean, I hope maybe for met fans and we know the Mets have been given the boot so JR sport re-show here with you on CBS sports radio 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS oh my goodness, Monday Night Football know it's interesting the raters had a lead emphasis on had to take a break you get a news update, we come back the phone lines open if you want to give me a holler and also we had an instance of it in this game the quarterbacks being babied to give you a great example of the biggest example that took place yesterday you were listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio listening to the JR sport brief on CBS sports radio going love with them. Drink brief listen. Every night after work helped me unwind calling now with 855-2124 CBS. It is the JR sport re-show here with you on CBS sports radio 855-2124 CBS have a brewski were to do it safely though don't have a brewski you know. If you drive in listening to me. Don't don't don't do that. Meanwhile, here you just heard the update for marketability of the Chiefs leading the raters and Monday Night Football well the raters were able to put a three spot a few goal on the board and the team that had a 20 to 10 lead the raters currently trail 2324.

We just got underway in the fourth quarter and we had a big play take place earlier on. That's Chris Jones landing in sacking and enforcing the strip of Derek Carr in the cold roughing almost similar to what we saw yesterday and another situation scenario. The Falcons were getting the living hell beat out of them by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

What else is new. Tom Brady just owns the Falcons. It doesn't matter what uniform he's in the box. At one point they led 21 to nothing of the Falcons came back 2115 was the final score, but they didn't get a chance to even get the ball back because Grady Jarret decided he didn't decide he sacked Tom Brady one of those roll sacks and then they ended up calling roughing it was a penalty and that was all she wrote, and I get it, it's Tom Brady and the NFL is all about safety. What are you supposed to do at this point in time. If you have a defensive tackle live. If you're defensive and by the way, Grady, Jarret, one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL because he plays with the Falcons, which seen that socks. He doesn't get a lot of attention, but the fact is you can't breathe on the quarterback. You can't suction you can look at him, you can't say you suck otherwise in a call roughing this was terrible. Absolutely terrible matter fact, this is Grady Jarret roughing the passer call.

This is courtesy the Falcons radio network Brady working for the gun ready retreats looking looking you shall not be a home when this call. This is good to be home when this call to call Grady Jarret was swinging down Brady on this sat, this is a this is a harangue.

This is not the attention of the call will not see play.

OH it's true.

I mean we can all think about and remember terrible calls that we have all ever seen on all Saints fans might be jumping up and then we can go through an entire list, we can look through your entire fandom for your whole life and I'm sure they are calls and plays that stand out to you Grady.

Jarret sacking Tom Brady, who by the way, kicked him a few times. No calls on that one. Grady Jarret being called for roughing was embarrassing. They might as well already move ahead to two hand, such that's what they want to do right so they walk away with the victory. Tampa Bay does and after the game Tom Brady and the press conference. He was asked about it and of course Tom Brady had a get a simple answer for this lesson. Once that is your play lot lobbing or asking for flex symbols out the flags we seen him throw tablets we've seen Tom Brady throw temper tantrums, but he doesn't throw flax he's 45 years old and you can even look at the God of Washington to get penalized embarrassing terrible the Kansas City Chiefs don't walk away with the victory in this game and have people complaining about Chris Jones play or Derek Carr. There will be people complaining about are ready and is justified.

So what about that coach Arthur Smith second year as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. He was asked about it and we know this. If you talk in you criticize the officials publicly. You will get fine. This is what Arthur Smith had to say I find out how I can is nothing new in your life is a game that I got her out what I can do for my coaching techniques and you that I haven't seen the film and not worry about how to coach at it's like an episode of family feud shop like family feud you know when somebody gives Nancy good answer good answer good answer right, Nancy Farley has absolutely mastered that teaching class or use will not Steve Harvey.

It's the teammates in your family. Good answer.

You lets let his sublets play family feud ready was born ready, okay, let's see her name a quarterback in the NFL who the NFL absolutely will protect by any means necessary. First name Tom last name Brady. Good answer good answer glances just like family feel good answer good answer. The show is the family feud he's going.

I think about we hang thinking about Steve Harvey with thinking about the people who participate. Good answer.

It doesn't matter if they give a crap answer the family members will support you.

Good answer good answer good answer. It doesn't matter who you are as a coach I don't care if you're in the NFL, the NBA when you asked about the officials don't say anything. The best answer is no answer.

Good answer good answer good answer, so Arthur Smith is already mastered this in year number two we don't know how long he's going to stick around with the Falcons. We don't know if you'll be able to lead them to a turnaround. This man is nonchalant to have his pockets tap and it's true actually might mention this as well. Couple people pick me up. Of course it was.

It Carr bridge call was it roughing or was it football. It was garbage wasn't a football call. It was trash Jerome Bulger was one of the few NFL officials that you probably know, I don't even understand his justification. He doesn't. Nobody wants to know the referees names unless you suck. Nobody's going to forget Jerome Bulger for that one. But the fact is, the Falcons forgot that there were four quarters of football, not one quarter not to for and so we can't blame Jerome Bulger.

We can't blame Grady Jarret, we can't blame Tom Brady. We can blame a call for the loss. Was it stupid. Yes, call was terrible. Both can be true. The Falcons could have been subjected to.

They were subjected to a terrible call.

They also play like garbage.

Let's look at both fish as true, and we know that you're going to have human error in any football game in any athletic activity in anything where humans are involved, so if you want to blame anybody first sure you can blame the rougher the end, the fact that you didn't get a chance, you didn't get an opportunity to go back out there and score. But if you want to blame anybody first blame yourselves sorry 855-2124 CBS. That's 855-2124 CBS riches here from Chicago on the JR sport ratio.

What was the rich pay rich what hell are you hey what's up will you okay Richie got hit but was up there are getting out of the car in an elevator in Chicago, about a minute back to my place shortly.

Well I'm glad that we we got you what's on your mind. Yeah, I was, I will want to talk about and how it turned out well and trends like logic by college coaches old and a couple week… And I think the more I read read more NFL coat that run precarious unnamed week to week and plan call at all about what you thought about okay, please bow means going ahead yeah because you like college football because God will come back because the library can't be long. I would agree, especially after getting smacked up again by Georgia yes smoke a couple who probably actually beyond what happened to convert Brady Hoke. A lot of people forgot about him got lost to you, but San Diego really get the doldrums and make a lot of noise off and I don't know very well, but I do follow will not be lying to you if I told you I sat down and watch San Diego statement go on consent and the other one got brown. It works for you) dinner plate with you but I don't know, but all they do talk about the groundswell of information about going to run him off play in the NFL break the okay you made a horrible Nathaniel Hackett at Denver my work. Believe he's going to get a full season. I don't think they gonna make that include a poop show, go ahead. Yeah, you got a quarterback from Seattle who rebelled mortgage the future to get him as their daughter and I don't know the patient will also yeah Russell Russell Wilson. We found out is also dealing with a slight tear in his shoulder that was after the game or the other two coaches go ahead one you mentioned that I heard you on about Ron Rivera in Washington, and the guy who I think is another big category. Reputation is Josh McDaniel tonight when they start to get out a big lead and give it all up, did not, yeah, but I wouldn't I wouldn't put him on the hot seat rich, not right now like let them get to the season and by the way the touchdown was was just score thank you Rich: from Chicago touchdown just score by Kansas City getting ready to go for rock that the extra point but as of right now the score is 3223. Patrick Holmes is having no issue at all with Travis Kelsey none at all. They looking for two-point conversion right now that makes it for touchdowns by Patrick Moore Holmes tonight and it makes it for touchdowns with Travis Kelsey anyone who's really big time. The two-point conversion I converted anyone who's really really into fantasy Kelsey as he got for tonight, especially if you one thing about CDC mention Ron Rivera I mentioned them earlier on in the show as well a disaster. He's actually pinning blame on Carson Wentz's.

I hate guys will want to just suck wattage alludes to the Titans is like quarterback play the last play of the games are pretty much close things out Carson Wentz. He threw and he threw an interception with an opportunity to win and there you have it. He has six self and so Ron Rivera I guess at this point is like look, I may be out the door and if I'm going out the door. I'm just going to be completely honest, Carson Wentz Taylor hi Nikki broken Alex Smith, who by the way didn't appreciate him throwing the quarterback on the bus. We know this Washington is just one massive disaster by itself. JR sport ratio here with you on CBS sports radio we come back and I'll let you hear from Ron Rivera and will talk about some of the disasters like the New York Mets cluster calls JR sport ratio CBS sports radio flex
