You don't interrupt the wayward sun. You just 6 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 3: let it ride. 7 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: It's the Hammer and Nigel Show. 8 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 3: I'm Jason Hammer, Big Nige's out guy, Relford the gun 9 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 3: guy filling in and let's go to the hotline. 10 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: Bring on, friend of the show. 11 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 3: And part of the morning show on our sister sports station, 12 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 3: Window seven five. The fan Kevin Bowen, so KB right 13 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 3: out of the gate here, million dollar question, Carly Orsay, 14 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 3: does she blow out either Ballard Steichen, either one or both? 15 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: What do we think? 16 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 4: Well, I wish I had our conviction on that. I 17 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 4: would say this. 18 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm overwhelmingly holding my breath that 19 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 2: she will do something and. 20 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 4: A lot of it, honestly. 21 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: Sevens back to the trading guys in season when they 22 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 2: traded for Soardner and just the magnitude of what that 23 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 2: trade met for the organization. 24 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 4: You basically said you believed. 25 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 2: In Daniel Jones as your franchise quarterback, and you said 26 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 2: you believed in Chris Ballard and Chaine Stiken, and so 27 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 2: you know, two months later, do all of a sudden 28 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: you go. 29 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 4: Back on that. 30 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 2: That's probably where I have a little bit of pause. 31 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: But I'm obviously there's ample evidence certainly to fire Ballard. 32 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 2: You can make a case for Stiking as well, especially 33 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: if you believe that you tie the GM the head 34 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 2: coach at the hit. It'd be you know, rather astonishing 35 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: and I'd be rather unprecedented to see a GM with 36 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: Ballards or resume give a ton to year. 37 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 4: But I'm not holding my breath necessarily. They'll be ample changes. 38 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it feels like there are two different things at 39 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 3: play here, Kevin. There's the football perspective, there's the business perspective. 40 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 3: And football wise, you're right, maybe Carly did sign off 41 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: on that trade. 42 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: I would imagine she had to have done that. 43 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 3: And you don't have two first round picks, you don't 44 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: have a star quarterback. 45 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: Who do you bring in? That's better? 46 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 3: But just from a business perspective, I think they may 47 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: be at risk of losing the fan base if you 48 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 3: run it back one more time. 49 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: You see what I'm saying, Well, and I think business too, 50 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: Hammer I mean Sunday will be the eleventh year, eleven 51 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 2: year anniversary since their last home playoff game, I mean 52 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 2: eleven years ago. I didn't exercise on our morning each 53 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 2: the other day of going through all the sporting events 54 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: lucas Ol Stadium, Lucas Ol Stadium has had a swim 55 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: meet in it, you know, the last time the Colts 56 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: hosted a home playoff game. Like you want to talk finances, 57 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 2: you want to talk you know, dollars and cents. I mean, 58 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: twenty five NFL teams have hosted a home playoff game 59 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,839 Speaker 2: since the Colts last have, so I think that kind 60 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: of adds to the to the financial element of it. 61 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,239 Speaker 5: KB. When I heard that you were going to be 62 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 5: on and I was sitting in for Nigel today, the 63 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 5: first thing I thought of I couldn't wait to talk 64 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 5: to you is is were you at all surprised that 65 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 5: Philip Rivers still started the game yesterday after the Colts 66 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 5: were eliminated from the playoffs. A lot of people were 67 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 5: looking at that at the time. To put a healthy 68 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 5: Riley Leonard in the game, get him some reps, get 69 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 5: him a little experience, and I'm not sure where Ar's 70 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 5: vision is and his health, but a lot of people 71 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 5: were saying, hey, yeah, when we still had a potential shot, 72 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 5: bringing in Rivers made some sense. But what was the 73 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 5: reason for him to play against Jacksonville yesterday after the 74 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 5: Colts were eliminated. 75 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a question. I feel that a lot. 76 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 2: So basically, I think the thought was throughout the week, 77 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 2: once the Colts were officially eliminated. 78 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 4: What was that seven thirty Saturday night. 79 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: At that point you are what you know, yeah, eighteen 80 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: hours twelve hours away from kickoff the next day. So 81 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: I understand sticking with Rivers. Not that the Colts had 82 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 2: ample practice time last week with the holiday, but you know, 83 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: practice wise and throughout meetings, you know, it was always 84 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 2: Rivers being the starter. 85 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 4: So I'm not maybe, as you know, whatever thought that they. 86 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 2: Should have changed it at the last second. Now for Sunday, 87 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: I don't need to see Philip Rivers and you know, 88 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 2: Rocky four or however you want to describe it here 89 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: running out there against the Houston Texans, you know, to 90 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 2: me to get the Richardson part of the question, I 91 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 2: think the vision limitations are real right now, and I 92 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 2: think there are some legit questions about how that would 93 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 2: look in a game setting, and not to mention, it's 94 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 2: the number one ranked defense in the NFL, so I 95 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 2: think that is more at play here. Yes, do I 96 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: think the Colts are largely or Shane Second is largely 97 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: probably done with them. 98 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's probably fair as well. 99 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: But I do think the actual you know, orbital injury 100 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,239 Speaker 2: impacting his vision, all of that is a real serious element. 101 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 2: But it is time to see Riley Leonard, particularly. 102 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 4: If Daniel Jones. 103 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 2: If you are going to run it back and you 104 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 2: think Daniel Jones is going to be ready early in 105 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: the season, there's no guarantee he's ready for Week one. 106 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: You could need Riley Leonard in the month of September 107 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: next year. Potentially it starts some games. So I think 108 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 2: it'd be you know, good for him to get his 109 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: first NFL start coming up on Sunday. 110 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 5: Now you mentioned Daniel Jones. What infrontation do you have 111 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 5: on his contract situation? Right, because he was just under 112 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 5: a one year contract for this year then blew the Achilles. 113 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 5: You think that could bring him back signing for another 114 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 5: year next year. 115 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think again, assuming they bring everybody back, I 116 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 2: think that's where signs are pointing obviously the financial hit 117 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: that he took, you know, once he went down, that 118 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 2: injury was rather significant, you know, millions, I would assume dollars, So, 119 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: you know, I think it's probably impacted the length of 120 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: the contract again, certainly how much money annually he would get. 121 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 2: But I would assume Daniel Jones is your quarterback here 122 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 2: for twenty twenty six down. 123 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 4: If you blow it up, I mean, who the hell knows. 124 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 2: I mean, at that point, you know, no one's safe, frankly, 125 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: but if they bring this back, I would think that 126 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones will be the guy for the vast majority 127 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: of next season. 128 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 3: And Kevin, I was listening to your program this morning. 129 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: You make a great point. There's really no reason to 130 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 3: just blow it up, Tank because you don't have the 131 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 3: number one pick. You don't have your first round pick 132 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 3: next year at all. So you might as well say, look, 133 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 3: we got a pretty good running back. We feel like 134 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 3: he's one of the best in the league. We've got 135 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 3: a pretty good guard, We've got a really good rookie 136 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 3: tight end here. Let's just try to patch things up 137 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 3: and see what can happen. Is that where we're at 138 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 3: with this franchise. 139 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: Well, I think that would be the thought process in 140 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 2: running it back for next season. I don't necessarily agree 141 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 2: with that, to be clear, but I think internally that 142 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 2: could be the thought process because you know, again you 143 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: are banking basically the col You know people that are saying, hey, 144 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: running back or whatever, they are talking this up to 145 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 2: some injuries. Well, I mean Daniel Jones going off the 146 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: torn achilles, the Forest Buckner needed next surgery at the 147 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 2: age of thirty. I don't like next in surgeries in 148 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 2: thirty year olds in football. 149 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 4: That is just not a great combination. 150 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 2: Taveri's ward is dealt with three concussions in the last 151 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: year and has had a slew of just frankly tragic 152 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: off the field stuff happened to him as well. That's 153 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: just a lot to be banking on. You know, one 154 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 2: eighties for example, happening. And you know, as much as 155 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 2: we play this game in this market, what do you 156 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 2: think they're saying in Kansas City about their quarterback. What 157 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: do you think they're saying in Cincinnati about their quarterback? 158 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 2: What do you think they're saying in Baltimore about their quarterback. 159 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 2: I mean, three teams that very well could miss the playoffs. 160 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: Two of them are definitely out. And they all have 161 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: quarterbacks that have you know, played you know, deep into 162 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 2: the playoffs and in Super Bowls and won super Bowls, 163 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: and you know, they all will probably be saying a 164 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 2: similar you know tune if you will. So that's why 165 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: I just don't think it's a stap of your fingers 166 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 2: and then boom them all of a sudden, you know, 167 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: the resume of you know again, no division titles in 168 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 2: eleven years, no playoff wins in eight years, no playoff 169 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: appearances in five years, all of a sudden, it's going 170 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: to stop. 171 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 5: Kevin. 172 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: We talk a lot about Chris Ballard and how, for 173 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 3: whatever reason he has been able to survive. He's been 174 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 3: a survivor despite not really winning much. Here, let's look 175 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 3: at Shane Steichen here at the beginning of this year, 176 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 3: the offense was clicking, everybody was happy, but it was 177 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 3: such a major meltdown down the stretch. You had the 178 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 3: overtime situation in Kansas City. Uh, some of the decision 179 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 3: making that stike In makes. Is he on the hot 180 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 3: seat along with Ballard? 181 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, oftentimes you tie the GM and the 182 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 2: head coach together, but their resumes are vastly different in 183 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 2: terms of years. It's a nine for Ballard, three for 184 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 2: Psych and so. 185 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 4: I think that's what makes it difficult, Like if. 186 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: You're handing out individual gradeseach, I think Ballard gets the 187 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: worst grade than Psych and not that Psychan gets this, 188 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: you know, overwhelmingly great grade. I guess if you want 189 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 2: to look at Shane's resume, it's three years, it's a 190 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: five hundred record at this point, exactly twenty five and 191 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: twenty five. Certainly the quarterback situation has an awful whole 192 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 2: lot of favor. Some of that is his own doing, 193 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 2: some of that is not. And if you look at 194 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: specifically within the division, you know, he's two and nine 195 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: against Houston Jacksonville and that's. 196 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 4: A really kind of sore eye for me. 197 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: When you look at Houston and and and Jacksonville, don't 198 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: look at them. It's necessarily the you know, the class 199 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 2: of the NFL by any means. So again, I you know, 200 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: I am probably a little bit more in the If again, 201 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: trying them at the hip is probably the way to go. 202 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 2: But if not, I think the ballot resume is much 203 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 2: uglier than the Psychen resume. But we don't have a 204 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: lot of arranged marriages, if you will in the NFL 205 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: that work out, and the arranged marriage would be you're 206 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 2: bringing a new GM and say hey, here's your head coach. 207 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 4: You know, maybe bring the new GM and you say, hey, 208 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 4: evaluate this guy. But it just it rarely works out. 209 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: So that's where I do have some questions about exactly, again, 210 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 2: how willing are they to really really blow it up 211 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: and exactly what will a week from Monday look like. 212 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: Do they just use the same letter that they used 213 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: last year when they said, running back. 214 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: One more thing here before you let you go? 215 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 5: Guy, go ahead. I was just going to say, isn't 216 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 5: it also a factor in terms of blowing it up? 217 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 5: I think I think a team is less inclined to 218 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 5: blow it up when you don't have a first round 219 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 5: draft pick for the next two years, because when you 220 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 5: blow it up, what are you replacing it with in 221 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 5: terms of personnel, you know, for whoever you would bring in, 222 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 5: both as coach and as general manager. I just think 223 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 5: that gets that gets tough when your prospects down the 224 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 5: road are so limited by having lost those two picks. 225 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a good point. 226 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 2: It's certainly a less than advantageous situation. But at the 227 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 2: end of the day, there's thirty two of these, and yes, 228 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: it does it help to have the first round picks. 229 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 4: Certainly, I'm not going to deny that. But you know what, 230 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 4: if you wanted to, you could take some of the 231 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 4: pieces on this. 232 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 2: Roster right now, with them beloved colts frankly that have 233 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: been here for a while, and you could trade them 234 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 2: and potentially add. 235 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 4: To a few more of those picks. 236 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 2: To me, like all of a sudden, sitting here and saying, well, 237 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 2: you bring everybody back, because it'd be the disservice to 238 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 2: a new end because you didn't you don't have first 239 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: round picks, I'm kind of like, well, that's that's. 240 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 4: A little bit of an odd way to do it. 241 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 2: I mean, if Iral Chris Ballard and that trade was 242 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: presented to me two months back, i would say, I'm 243 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 2: doing this trade one hundred times out of one hundred. 244 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 2: If it's going to guarantee me jobs security because it 245 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: ham strings the guy after me, then of course I'm 246 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 2: gonna do this trade because. 247 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 4: It's going to get me in two to three years. 248 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: Even if it doesn't work. 249 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: Out, and right now, you know, due to injury, the 250 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 2: trade hasn't worked out, So again, I understand it's maybe 251 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 2: a little bit of a disservice to the next person, 252 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 2: But at the same time, I don't think that also 253 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: means it's an endorsement on the current guy that he should, 254 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: you know, have one in the pro column if you will, 255 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: making the pros and the cont. 256 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: List and Riley Leonard hearing chatter he might get to 257 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 3: start Sunday. 258 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: Is that what we're looking at? 259 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 4: Boy? That is my assumption. 260 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: But hammer when I spoke about that on the morning 261 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 2: show today and then listen to Shane psych in this 262 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 2: afternoon in his press conference, I don't know, it seemed 263 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 2: like the door is a little bit open to Philip Rivers. 264 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if he was trying to do the 265 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 2: you know, nice thing on the way out the door, 266 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: but it definitely sounded like Shane was a little bit 267 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 2: more open to that, and it almost sounded like it's 268 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: a conversation that maybe Rivers needed to have, which I 269 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: don't necessarily think that's the way to go. 270 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 4: So I'm a little more torn. I assume it was 271 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 4: going to be Leonard, but little bit more torn after 272 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 4: listening to Shane. 273 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 2: Sounds like decision will come tomorrow and we'll see exactly 274 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 2: who it's going to be. Like I said earlier, I 275 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: don't think we need to see the Philip Rivers thing. 276 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: Hell of a movie, inspirational all of it. But there's 277 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: a reason why the Rocky movies got worse. 278 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 5: Man, If I'm about forty four year old quarterback, do 279 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 5: I want to see that pass rush from Houston? All right? 280 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 5: Those guys are on it, man, there. I mean, I 281 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 5: hate Houston with a passion, but those two defensive ends 282 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 5: are fun to watch. 283 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 2: No, that is I would say, you know what, being 284 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: a parents at ten kids sounds better than that. 285 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: Which what's coming up on the Big Show tomorrow? 286 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 5: KB? 287 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, So we'll continue to recap a lot of this, 288 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 2: you know, certainly more in the big picture. 289 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 4: We'll actually get a. 290 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 2: Little boots on the ground on Pasadena with a Rose 291 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: Bull coming up on Thursday, So we'll do that at 292 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 2: eight thirty of Rick Carlisle should join us at some point. 293 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 4: The nine o'clock hour. 294 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 2: They've got a late one tonight in Houston, so we'll 295 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: chat with him coming up a little bit later in 296 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 2: the show tomorrow. 297 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: Check out the Morning Show. 298 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 3: KB is a part of it at one O seven 299 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 3: five the fan, Kevin Bowen, We appreciate you. 300 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 4: Happy to you boys. 301 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: Thanks same to you, you and Moonshine Monday next
