Harrison Butker has missed 7 field goals in 8 games, and Chiefs Kingdom has reached its breaking point. Fescoe and Dusty unpack Butker's disastrous misses against the Jets, Dave Toub’s loyalty to high-priced veterans, and why Butker appears completely "in his own head." Plus, the guys give the latest relief update on Patrick Mahomes’ arm and ask if Kansas City's defensive line finally found its mojo.

00:00Back at it. Victory Monday. Chiefs win 35-12 against the J.E.T.S. Sucks, sucks, sucks.
00:07Yep, they do. But hey, whatever. They're going to be good. They got a guy on their team that
00:12wears the jersey 31, and I am jelly of that guy. I mean, that guy. That's a man, baby.
00:20A little update on my homes for you this morning. You want that? I can give it to you real
00:23quick.
00:24Yeah. All right. So here's what we're hearing this morning from Patrick. Should be fine.
00:28Maybe a little bit sore and limited. How he feels will be the key to which I responded.
00:32I go, he's going to be fine. He's never going to tell you he's hurting, right?
00:36That's the one thing about Patrick Mahomes. He will never tell you that he's hurt.
00:41You're going to have to guess for yourself. And so we got lucky. We got lucky on that one, man.
00:48Thank God. Lucky that he's fine or lucky that you have that guy that's that tenacious and loves football?
00:54Both. Both. Yeah. Both. Yeah. Yeah.
00:58You know, sometimes in life we make mistakes, like getting a tattoo on our right arm that's
01:02misspelled. We know the story. Dusty, how you doing? Misspelled tattoo. Chipotle on Friday
01:07is giving you a buy one, get one from three o'clock to four o'clock if you can show
01:11a real
01:12or temporary or drawn on tattoo. Okay. See? From three to four on Friday?
01:17Finally, it paid off to get into a spell balive, not believe. Yep. Friday the 13th, I believe
01:22is this week. So you have to have a wrong spelled tattoo?
01:24No, you can't. Okay. Okay. I thought it was. I thought it was. No, I'd be the only one
01:30in line. That is not true. Didn't Bart Simpson get one that says I love Bob? It's not a real
01:33person. But yeah, if you have a fake, you could just literally write, you could like draw
01:37like barbed wire and go to Chipotle and be like, I'll take one burrito and one for free.
01:41So what is the, what is the promotion again? They're giving away a buy one, get one on Friday
01:45the 13th. If you show a tattoo real temporary or drawn on from three o'clock to four o'clock.
01:50Three to four. Yep. Up to five free items per order. Oh my God. Chipotle on Friday from three
01:56to four is going to be slammed. You talk about your meal prep for the weekend. No, that's fantastic.
02:01I'll take two burrito bowls and I will eat half each day. That's right. I'm good Friday,
02:05Saturday and Sunday. Who eats half a burrito bowl, Dusty? Me. Yeah. Another storyline of this game.
02:14So I think the three that I came up with that I try to come up with every single week,
02:17number one,
02:18my home's injury scare. We survived, right? I think that is the number one thing that you can
02:23all say, Hey, we're good. We can take a breath. We can all relax. Now we're going to monitor it
02:28throughout the week. Obviously he's going to come up on the injury report. He's going to have probably
02:31a different sleeve on his arm. All that might have the Brett Favre copper elbow. Who knows?
02:35He'll play. I believe that your report was there'll be some soreness. It all depends on what he feels
02:40right. You respond with he's fine. He's fine. Yeah. The second one was like the D line showed life,
02:46right? But again, we'll ask the question a little later on. Did that give you enough
02:50or are you some of the text line today? It was the jets guys. Hey, you got to have good
02:55games
02:55though and start stacking them. That's the first of a, that's the first of what you could do in
02:58stacking games, man. Get, get some success, realize that success, see that success. They needed to see
03:04that success with sacks as much as we did. And so hopefully that, you know, puts them moving forward.
03:09And then, and this is just the beginning of what they should be doing. And then I think again,
03:14for the third consecutive week, at least we have all seen enough of seven. We know there
03:22are people in the organization that are just hanging on yard attempt and the last play of
03:27the half buckers kick. Looks like the same one, same thing again, wide, right. And the crowd's
03:40letting them have it. And I want to ask you guys this, and I want to know how you answer
03:46it. Text
03:46line, feel free. 9-1-3-5-8-6-7-9-6-5. And yes, I did boo yesterday on
03:49the top of my lungs. I
03:50believe it. I totally believe it. I don't think we needed to ask. I think we knew Bob. That was
03:55a
03:55free space. You got two free space on that one. Exactly. You're not happy. I'm all about
04:01loyalty when it merits it. Yeah. And I know Andy is too. I know that's kind of one thing that
04:07he
04:07will always have on his resume. That's why we always see the players come over from the past
04:11and hug them. Or if they're in, you know, Jason Kelsey, obviously the relationship they have is,
04:14is an anomaly. But again, players in the past have always kind of had things to say of how Andy
04:19is,
04:19but sometimes you just can't have full loyalty when you're the only one providing the loyally
04:29loyally or that that's the word, right? When you're the only one being loyal, right? Look at it as
04:33like a bad relationship. If you're the one constantly texting, you're the one constantly
04:37asking, you're the one constantly trying, you're the one constantly engaging. And the other one is
04:42not. And that's new behavior from the past. You should start to notice that things aren't the
04:47same that they used to be. You can be thankful for people that are in your life all the time,
04:50but where they at currently and where that line of demarcation is. And this is now the fifth game in
04:55a
04:55row. Butkers missed seven, seven field goals. Yeah. Two on one play yesterday. And it's not like
05:01they're getting blocked. It's not like they're hitting the crossbar. They are literally missing
05:06the same way. Every single time there is late. There was the one against Seattle. That was,
05:11that was quite short, but every single one seems to be up into the right. You heard the audio CBS
05:17there of Jim Nance and JJ Watt. And it's like, again, same thing wide, right? And they keep telling
05:23you he's going to get this figured out. He's going to keep doing this. He'll look again, not erasing the
05:29pass of Harrison Butker, but at what point are, is there one person only because they're too loyal
05:36to this? Because that's what it seems like. It's not working. It hasn't worked. He's missing at a
05:42high rate seven. Now they've only played eight games and he's missed seven field. Yeah. And the two
05:47yesterday were just, just unbelievably Butker. I mean, it really like that had Butker written all over
05:52it. And my buddy Jim sits up in the, in the behind the end zone, second level, the club level.
05:58And he goes,
05:58I was watching the guy during warmups. He was missing 45 yard field goals constantly during
06:02the warmups. And then you see him go out there and okay, he missed that one, but it didn't count
06:06because it was offsides. Fine. Let's do it again. And then you do it again, five yards closer in
06:11pristine conditions yesterday. And I even tweeted it before the game. I go, we have perfect conditions.
06:15There wasn't a cloud in the sky yesterday. It was in the sixties. There was zero wind. The flags were
06:21not
06:21moving on either kick on the goalpost. And so where you could say whatever excuse they gave last week
06:29that he had to angle it around the thing. And it was fine. Whatever. There was no excuse for what
06:35went down yesterday for Harrison Butker, other than it's a mental thing right now with him and he can't
06:40figure it out. And they're lucky again, it didn't cost them the opportunity to win that game, but my God,
06:46you've got to have some belief in your kicker right now. And nobody in that stadium believes in
06:51Harrison Butker. You could feel the tension when he went out there, both four extra points and for
06:57those field goal attempts as well. You could feel the tension in the stadium. Nobody in that stadium
07:02believed that he was going to make that field goal. Not one person believed he was going to hit that
07:07field goal, including the gentleman who was out there kicking that field goal. And that's why it's time
07:11to move on. But again, as we talk about Dave Tobe said the part out loud that you're not
07:16supposed to say last week, he goes, we're paying Butker. And once I heard Dave Tobe say that,
07:21then I realized that's what we're with. This is the guy. And I'm with you, Dusty. Like he's had a
07:27great career, but what's going on in the present is not helping this team move forward. And they've
07:33got to figure out what they're going to do with that kicker situation. And nobody wants the guy
07:38that's on the practice squad. Had he made it though, we'd be, we'd be talking, you know, about how he's
07:42back.
07:47Dave Tobe. That was my favorite quote last week. Yeah, but he didn't. Had he made it though,
07:53we'd be talking about how good he is. Okay, cool. There's not one person, right? Not one person's
07:58like, he'll be all right outside of Andy Reid. It's why Tobe said we're paying him. I don't remember
08:05that. So I got to pull that out. I'm excited. I'm curious to hear exactly how he said that.
08:08Cause that isn't strange. I remember we taught us talking about, I just don't remember the exact
08:11audio. So I'm up to find that so we can play it for the listeners. But yeah, no, no, no,
08:15no one,
08:15no one believes, but I, like I said, live, like I said, you know, one believes, like I said, like
08:21I
08:21said before though, I'd still rather him go out there and miss everyone. If Justin Tucker is the
08:25replacement, then just stick with seven for me. That's just my, I'm sticking there. Let me ask you
08:29this. Let me ask you this. I called that quarterback sneak a spite play. Was that a spite signing?
08:34I don't know. Fine. You guys want a different kicker? Let's find this guy. I don't know. They
08:37did their homework. Wouldn't be surprised if that was a spite signing. Here's what Tobe said
08:44yesterday or Thursday. Butker is our kicker. We're paying Butker. Butker has won a lot of
08:48football games for us. Butker is a champion. Okay. Yeah. We're, we are paying Butker. Once I heard
08:55that. Yeah. And I, and I love this analogy because this was me Saturday on the golf course. Butker
09:01is hitting his driver differently than his irons. He just can't get off the tee right
09:04now. He's swinging. His swing is different. He's cooked in between the ears 1000%. And
09:09I don't know how to fix that. That's the million dollar question, right? Like they always say
09:12you'd rather have it be a physical thing than a mental thing, because a physical thing is
09:15easier to overcome than a mental thing. It could also just be completely done. And that's
09:19true too. Yeah. Like we see it with closers in football. We see it with golfers all the
09:23time. And sometimes you just can't kick it. I mean, the yips are so crazy on the golf
09:29course. You don't even say the word because it can get affected that quickly to somebody
09:33else. Like you don't say that. Why word you've been there? Like, like say, say you're having
09:36a tough time off the tee, right? I see my six iron on Saturday. But what are you thinking
09:40when you're, you're taking a shot that you've struggled with? Right. And you're like, I'm
09:43telling my, it's, it's contradicting to cut you off. I apologize. It's me going up to
09:47the ball. Stay inside. Don't no inside out swing. Just get when I should just go. What
09:53is it? 160. Right. Okay. And so I'll take a practice swing and then hit. That's
09:57what the kicker's doing. And that's what he's doing. He's going, they're going, all
09:59right, I need to go two more yards. I mean, you can see him walking back at like, like
10:03just, I watched a lot of him yesterday on the sidelines too. It's it's, I mean, he is
10:08in his own head. He's mentally cooked football coverage on 96.5. The fan is brought to you
