Kurt Benkert

It is turning into the NBA and Trey Young and LeBron James, you know, flailing and falling and getting the penalty.

Kurt Benkert, former Packers quarterback, calling out Jared Goff on social media about the softness, you know, for trying to sell that roughing the passer penalty, the one they called on Cox, where he literally gets blocked into Jared Goff.

and he's trying to hold them up, and you're calling a roughing the passer penalty.

It's egregious, man.

I look at...

Was it the opening third down of the game when they ran that screen pass to, I think, Javante Williams or a swing pass, and Isaiah McDuffie missed the tackle? And Kurt Benkert, Paul's great friend, did a breakdown of this online where Isaiah McDuffie misses the tackle, and then it's like a swarm of Bs coming in.

There are like four or five guys there.

Zaire Franklin finishes them off.

And with turnovers, Keyshawn Nixon and Xavier McKinney each intercepted a pass, and we will gladly accept those turnovers.

Did you see where Kurt Benkert, former backup quarterback of your Green Bay Packers, he noticed something that...

In the quarterback sneak that Jordan Love did to get a touchdown against the Cowboys is very similar to the quarterback sneak that Bart Starr did to beat the Cowboys back in the Ice Bowl.

So it's like reliving all those past glories, and I'll take you at another one.

But I'm obviously not here to tell the story for him.

Kurt Benkert, welcome to Playbooks and Portfolios.

Really appreciate you Hopping on on a short notice too.

I mean, we shot you a text yesterday and boom, this man is all for the content and it's really cool to have you.

Yeah, speed, speed, speed.

But really do appreciate it.

Again, from playing the game to owning a piece of it, this is Playbooks from Portfolio with Kurt Benkert.

Really appreciate you.

Uh, this is- Oh ...

Kurt Benkert, you know, our former backup quarterback.

Oh, right.

Right.

He was on, he was, he was, um, covering, uh, Jonnu Smith, and realized that Jonnu Smith was not, like, a real threat, kind of a decoy on the outside because you wouldn't put, um, somebody who isn't as fast, uh, on the outside route, you know? Yeah.

So he's like, "Wait a minute, this isn't a guy I really need to be worried about," so then he cut off and, and jumped the, the pass to, I think it was to Matthew Golden if I remember correctly.

So Kurt Benkert did a really good job of explaining why the, the play was designed this way, why that player realized he didn't need to be there, how he broke over and why that happened.

So I mean, it comes down to, like, just a really good play by that defender whose name is escaping me.

Benkert's Twitter thread hit piece about him? It was like, I think he thought...

He's a massive walloper is my rough opinion on Kurt Benkert.

I think he thought he was like doing this thing that everyone's going to be like, Oh wow.

He's like, cause he, he started it with like, well, I finally do my Matt Lafleur thread.

And popular Matt LeFleur hater.

Kurt Benkert did not take part in it.

So it's not written.

It's not written by Kurt Benkert or Kurt Benkert was not interviewed.

And Kurt Benkert came out and said, I would not.

I wasn't this.

I refuse.

Like, come on.

Um, the Kurt Benkert, uh, tweet about how he install plays with just his coffee, a red pen, and just goes through what it is.

That sounded like, you know, the professor in class that, like, really knows that topic and is passionate about and just tells you about it rather than just telling you what it's in the book.

Like, that was a cool story.
