Like I still cannot believe that 20 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 2: Indiana football who entered the twenty twenty four season, I 21 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: believe it was or was it this year as the 22 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 2: losingest team in college football history has now won a 23 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 2: national championship and that we live in a world guys 24 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 2: where the Indiana Hoosiers won a national title before Oregon. 25 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: It's glorious and unbelievable at the same time. Day it is. 26 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 4: I've seen all sorts of numbers that are just crazy. 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 4: Maybe the craziest guys is before the twenty twenty five season, 28 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 4: Indiana all time and they're one hundred plus years against 29 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 4: top ten competition was six, won sixteen and one. 30 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 3: This year they're six and zero. 31 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, they have won as many games against the top 32 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 4: ten this year as they did in the last century combined. Yah. 33 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 3: Well, I mean give them credit. I mean give Kurt 34 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 3: Signetty credit. 35 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: And I think, honestly, the craziest thing about this whole deal, Look, 36 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: they got a lot of guys from James Madison. They 37 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: got a quarterback from cal they got a running back 38 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: from Maryland. For God's sakes, It's not like they're chock 39 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: full of ex Texas and Alabama and Ohio state players. 40 00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: He took a lot of guys. 41 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: From James Madison team and he turned them into cowrich 42 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: football stars and won a title because of it. You know, 43 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: it was kind of busting Ians chops on the ear 44 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 2: during cross talk that. I mean, yeah, there was you know, 45 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: Miami wanted Mendoza. Georgia was looking at Mendoza because of 46 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 2: Carson Beck's injury, obviously, and they thought he was taking 47 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 2: off for the NFL. And then he came back and said, no, 48 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna stay in school and go day a Cavender 49 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: twin and go to South Beach and hang out in 50 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 2: Miami for a year, which is not a bad idea, 51 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 2: by the way at all. But when from when when 52 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 2: Mendoza went to Indiana, nobody batted an eye. This is 53 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: the cow quarterback. I mean when I when I saw 54 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 2: him playing for Indiana, I actually had forgotten that he 55 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: had transferred to Indiana. 56 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, that's right, the cow guy's there. 57 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you didn't even think about Nico had way 58 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: more buzz than thousand, and he was plus five thousand 59 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: to win the Heisman Trophies. So every now and then 60 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 2: you just got to say, all right, you know what, 61 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 2: Like remember the movie For the Love of the Game 62 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: with Kevin Costner when he's pitching for the Tigers and 63 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: he has the perfect game and there's that big fat ugly, 64 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 2: greasy guy sitting behind the dugout just razing him the 65 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 2: entire day and then with the games over, I'm not 66 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: talking about the guy at the airport, the guy that 67 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: was at the game itself, the big guy. He's like, 68 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 2: all right, give him credit, give him credit. There's nothing 69 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: you can do. You just got to give the guy credit, dude. 70 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: You just got to give the guy a standing ovation 71 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 2: and give him credit for what he's done. And the 72 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: most amazing thing about Kurt Signetty for me is that 73 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: this is a guy who didn't even get his first 74 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: FBS job until he was sixty two years old. 75 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 3: Sixty two Like, how did college football miss on this one? 76 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 4: Well?

It is unbelievable. How a welled 89 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 4: oiled machine. 90 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 3: Have you guys seen the last time that Indiana lost 91 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 3: a fumble? Yeah, like the last year or something. 92 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 5: It was the first quarter of the first game this year, 93 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 5: and then it did lose another fumble all year? 94 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, because he probably went off on it and made 95 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 4: him run all night long. 96 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 2: You will die if you fumble the ball.

It's about what you do with 145 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 4: it and how you evaluate the talent with the money 146 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 4: you're getting.

Well, 152 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 4: Oregon right now looks to me like a team that 153 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 4: kind of spends stupid free agent money on mediocre players, 154 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 4: where a team like Indiana spends the right amount of 155 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 4: money on the best player. 156 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 2: Well, look their offensive and defensive lines, to me is 157 00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: where they won this thing. 158 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 3: That's the difference. 159 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: And I remember watching that and you and I have 160 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 2: talked about this dick on the year many times. The 161 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: Alabama Georgia National Championship, I think it was twenty twenty 162 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 2: one or twenty two, whatever year that was, is before 163 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: the Husky's played for the title. I remember just either 164 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 2: texting you or whatever saying that's what we need. And 165 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: then they went out and got that. Huskies went out 166 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 2: and got the best line in college football. So I'm 167 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 2: telling you right now, if I'm spending money on college 168 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: football players, first of all, I'm not spending it on 169 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: high school players. I'm spending it in the portal because 170 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: I will be damned. And I'm talking about being like 171 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: a donor, which I'm not a big time donor. 172 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 3: Do I give money every now and then, Yeah, but 173 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 3: not anything significant. 174 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: Come on, right, But if I'm a big time whale 175 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: and I've got five ten million dollars to donate to 176 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: a university, I'm not going to give that to a 177 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 2: high school player who's going to develop for a couple 178 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: of years and then walk out of there and then 179 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 2: somebody else gets to bear the fruit of my investment 180 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: unless it's a. 181 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: Junior that's been here for two years. 182 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: And it's proved that. 183 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: My point, I'm giving it to established guys Like if 184 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: I need play or I have to retain players, then great. 185 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 2: But like the Cody Green situation, Like I'm really curious 186 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 2: to see how the Cody Green thing works out. Cody 187 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: Green is the new starting left tackle for the Huskies. 188 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 2: Maximus McCree. The Cougars think they're getting a starting left tackle, 189 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: which they're not, but whatever, let them think whatever they want. 190 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: The Pac twelve they probably are in that. 191 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: Well, I'm saying from Washington, they're claiming they're getting like 192 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: Washington starting left tackle, which the only reason why he 193 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: was starting is because Carver Willis was hurt. 194 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 3: That's why. Okay, he's a backup. 195 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: I mean, just imagine losing your mind at the Seahawks 196 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 2: starting left tackle. His name's Josh Jones. Now, come on, dude, 197 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 2: still it right? But I just think that that's where 198 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: you spend money. You spend money on the interior, you 199 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: spend money on the line of scrimmage, and you spend 200 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: money on twenty year olds, not eighteen year olds, like 201 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: I'm hopeful Cody Green is a great player for Washington, 202 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 2: but is he gonna take off in a year or 203 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: two from now? 204 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 3: It's you gonna go play somewhere else. 205 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: I mean, he's a homegrown guy from East Side Catholic, right, 206 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 2: so maybe that'll mean something. I hope it'll mean something. 207 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: But here's the point, I don't know. That's what pisses 208 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 2: me off is that you could sit here five, six, seven, whatever, 209 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: ten years ago and say, hey, we're getting this Cody 210 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: and Green guy man. They're talking about him starting as 211 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: a true freshman, which, by the way, in the non 212 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: portal transfer era, I don't know if he is starting 213 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: as a true freshman. 214 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 3: But when you're. 215 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 2: Paying these guys and you're bringing them in, you gotta 216 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 2: play them, right. You gotta get you gotta get some 217 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: return for your investment. Cody's Modern Day by the Motter Day. 218 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 3: Yeah no, no, no, no, no, no, no no no. 219 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: Didn't he transfer down there and then come back home. 220 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: I thought he was from East Side Catholic and then 221 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 3: went to Modern Day. 222 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: I'll check that's. 223 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure he's a local guy that that went 224 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: down there and came back home. I think he was 225 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: there for like a year at Modern Day. But the 226 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: point is, you know, if you did have a freshman, 227 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 2: like when Marcus Tuiasaspo played as a red shirt or 228 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 2: Jake Browning played as a true fresh and you're like, oh, 229 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 2: this is gonna be good. Yeah, this guy's gonna be 230 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: here for four years or three years, and now we 231 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 2: have no idea. 232 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: No you don't. 233 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 4: I mean, I think, well, I it probably exacerbates the 234 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 4: transfer portal when you're spending all your money on the transfers. 235 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 4: I'd love to be able to have a situation where 236 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 4: you sign a kid for like a three year contract 237 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 4: and say, okay, here's your incentives. 238 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna make X as a freshman. You're gonna make 239 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: wilds of. 240 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 4: Whatever exactly, which gives them raises each and every year, 241 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 4: but also gives them motivation to stay at your school. 242 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 6: Right. 243 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, Cody Green went to Eastside Catholic and then transferred 244 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 2: to monter Day for a year for one year in 245 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. So good for him, he's coming back home. 246 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 2: But yeah, that was fun last night watching that game. 247 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 2: I'm kind of glad there was a little bit of drama. 248 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: By the way, in that game, it was kind of 249 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 2: a boring game. For a while and then the second 250 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: half of a sudden it was phenomenal. So the gas 251 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 2: Man will join us at about six forty tonight. John 252 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: Wilder is going to be here at six.

Remember that Sam Donald and the 258 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 2: Trojans came to you, dub and gave him their first 259 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: loss of the year out they were the black uniforms, 260 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: which I drove me freaking nuts. 261 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 3: I'm like, what are we doing?

Last time out, Puka went nuts, there 343 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: was no Davante. Now Davante's back, I mean, what the hell? 344 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 5: I mean, I can give you the questions that I 345 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 5: want from here on Friday, Like I have a lot 346 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 5: of for me. The Rams defense and especially pass defense 347 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 5: has been so poor over the last six games. You 348 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 5: look at how they've kind of just morphed from a 349 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 5: great defense to an okay defense. 350 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 3: And I want to know is that legit is? 351 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 5: This is something that if LA is saying to themselves, great, 352 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 5: we'll just you know, ruin, Sam Darnold. 353 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 3: He can't throw on us, can he? 354 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 8: Though? 355 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 3: Because your past defense hasn't been anything great? 356 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: Well, and that that leads me to the question I 357 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: was going to ask you last night, but we ran. 358 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 9: Out of it. 359 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: We ran out of time. 360 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, we ran out time before the end of the 361 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 4: game because or the end of the show, because Softie 362 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 4: was asking how confident we were in Softy sounded confident. 363 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: I am confident, said scared bleepless. 364 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 4: So but what I was gonna ask you is, do 365 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 4: you at least feel better now than you did a 366 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 4: month ago about playing the Rams because of how because 367 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 4: of how they play and how we've played over the 368 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 4: last month. 369 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: Well, I felt, you know, my take, I did the 370 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 2: same take you did after that loss. I was like, wow, okay, 371 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 2: and I made the Ford versus Ferrari analogy, right, Matt Damon. 372 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 2: You know we may have lost, but all an end zone, man, 373 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: he knows how fast we are. We just did two 374 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty miles an hour down the moles on straight. 375 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 2: Remember that scene when Matt Damon's trying to convince Henry 376 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 2: Ford the second that we may have lost, but we 377 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 2: are on a path that is unbeatable. And if I'm 378 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 2: Sean McVeigh, I would have been in that locker room 379 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 2: in my office in a private moment, thinking, man, we 380 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: won the game, but damn they almost got us with 381 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: four picks. They almost got us. So I felt good 382 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 2: after that. But here's my biggest question. I think if 383 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 2: there is one going into this game the first three 384 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 2: quarters of that game in Seattle, when all of us 385 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: were tweeting about how badly McVeigh was whipping McDonald, what 386 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 2: the hell was that? 387 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 3: What the hell was that? And can that come back 388 00:15:59,320 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 3: this Sunday? 389 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: I think it can. 390 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 4: I mean, I still though, think that the Rams might 391 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 4: be a little bit of different team than they were then, 392 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 4: And I tweeted out the miles of these two teams 393 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 4: have put in the air the last three weeks since 394 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 4: December eighteenth. December eighteenth Rams game, the Rams had to 395 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 4: fly to Seattle and back to Atlanta and back to 396 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 4: Carolina and back to Chicago and play an overtime in 397 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 4: the snow and back and we'll. 398 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: Fly to Seattle. 399 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 4: Meanwhile, the Hawks went to Carolina and back San Francisco 400 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 4: and back and that's it, and played one fewer game. 401 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 4: We saw a beat down, dog tired San Francisco game 402 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 4: that it's San Francisco team that had been through the ringer. 403 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: On this weekend. 404 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 4: Well, we see a beat down, tired Rams team against 405 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 4: a very fresh Seahawk team on Sunday. 406 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: We're not winning forty one to six. 407 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 4: I get the Rams are way better than San Francisco, 408 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 4: but what I don't understand is why this spread is 409 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 4: under a field goal. 410 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: I do not Seattle is the home team. 411 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 4: They certainly have looked like the better team over the 412 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 4: last three weeks. I don't understand why they're not giving 413 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 4: us the full home field advantage, and they're basically saying 414 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 4: our neutral field, the Rams are better. 415 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 2: It's two and a half, right, Yeah, it's the spread. 416 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: So we're gonna argue about three versus two and a half. 417 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 2: I think he should be over I think should be 418 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:16,959 Speaker 2: over three. I think it should be more than to 419 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 2: get me to bet the Rams in this game. You 420 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: would probably have to get me at least a four, 421 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: if not more. I think you're talking about Matt Stafford 422 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: versus Sam Darnald. You're talking about an injured Sam Donald 423 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 2: that many people just don't know what he'll be able 424 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 2: to deliver if he needs to deliver. You know how 425 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 2: many bullets are left in that chamber? I mean, if 426 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 2: he's going to fire thirty five of them in the 427 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 2: fourth quarter on Sunday night at six thirty, how does 428 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 2: he feel? 429 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 3: What does he look like? All that stuff? 430 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 2: Charles Cross DeVante Adams knows, Zach Charberonnay. I mean, look, 431 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 2: I don't really have a problem with the spread, the 432 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 2: toss up. I think Vegas is telling you it's a 433 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 2: toss up, and that's what this is to me, right, 434 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 2: It's a fifty to fifty game. Like I don't think 435 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 2: any of us would bet anything significant on this game 436 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 2: on Sunday, No, right, you just is one of the 437 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 2: games you sit back and just watch. 438 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 4: But I will say, of the four major bets you 439 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 4: can make this weekend Hawks and the number you know, 440 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 4: the AFC game and the number or the two over unders. Yeah, 441 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 4: it's my favorite bets. Two and a half is my 442 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 4: favorite bet. I thought last. 443 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 2: Week I thought Houston New England under and the Seahawk 444 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 2: Niner under were locks, and they both went over. Kay, 445 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 2: both of them went over. Man, So you never know 446 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: of the playoffs, dude. But I just feel like the 447 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 2: Hawks are gonna win my morn of field goal. I 448 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: just I feel good about it. I think I think 449 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 2: they're gonna win two. But nobody can be shocked if 450 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 2: they lose. Nobody can sit here. This is what bothers me. 451 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 2: Anybody's sitting to be shocked. 452 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 3: Just hang on, calm down, Sparky. 453 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 2: This is one of those games where I just think 454 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 2: anybody who goes on the air in this business says 455 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 2: all this is done. We got him, and so it 456 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 2: would shut up who has said that, whoever. I'm just 457 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 2: saying anybody, not you, anybody. If anybody goes on Twitter, 458 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 2: if anybody goes on the air this week and starts 459 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 2: barking like they know better than somebody else about this game, 460 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 2: that's a ludicrous take, absolute ludicrous take. Somebody's saying, Hey, 461 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 2: I like the Hawks to win a close game. They're 462 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 2: at home, they have the best defense in the NFL. 463 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 2: I'm always going to take the best d over the best. 464 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 2: Oh great, yes, but if there's anybody on this station, 465 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 2: any other station social media running around proclaiming that this 466 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 2: is going to go what including the jokers in LA 467 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 2: By the way, one of them will join us Thursday. 468 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 2: My buddy Scott Kaplan, right, this is not that kind 469 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 2: of game. Let's get a break. We'll come back and 470 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 2: talk more about it.

And if there's 494 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: anybody in the league that should know Ken Walker's real value, which, 495 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 2: let's face it is what the market will pay. 496 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 3: That's the value. 497 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 2: But it's the Seahawks because they know that this guy's 498 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: got an injury history. They know that he was not 499 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 2: reliable for a long time in his career here in Seattle. 500 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 3: But if you're Kenny Walker, you're like, okay. 501 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 2: So you're telling me that I might be playing my 502 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 2: best football right now, at least since my rookie year. 503 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 3: Maybe I got a team that could win the title. 504 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 2: It Oh, by the way, my backup just blew his 505 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 2: knee out, So now I'm going to get even more 506 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 2: carries and a better chance to show what I can do. 507 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, And that puts the Hawks in a sticky situation 508 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 4: because you have no idea if Zach Charbony is going 509 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 4: to be even close to Zach Charboney at right any point, 510 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,239 Speaker 4: they may not be ready. He may not play at 511 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 4: all next year. And if he does, is he really 512 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 4: going to be Zach Charboney. I mean, the one thing 513 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 4: to Kenny Walker's favor is he's twenty five years of age, right. 514 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 4: I mean, it's not like a guy looking for a 515 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 4: second contract at twenty eight or twenty nine. 516 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: He has still got a lot of good years left. 517 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 4: I don't like giving running backs a lot of money, 518 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 4: but if if the Seahawks can, if the Seahawks can 519 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 4: come to a somewhere in that tenth best running back 520 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 4: contract in the NFL where you can get a reasonable deal, 521 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 4: I think Ken Walker's probably. 522 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 3: Worth that because he numbers nine and a half. 523 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 4: By the way, nine and a half million, I think 524 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: under ten is probably is probably fair what the twelfth 525 00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 4: running back in the league all came back. 526 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 3: In today today it's nine. 527 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 4: And a half, right, I mean, because if you don't 528 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 4: sign Ken Walker, then you're out Sharbon and Walker and 529 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 4: you literally have to rely on two rookies, or you're 530 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 4: coming off the scrap heat someplace else. 531 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I'm okay relying on a rookie. You know, 532 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: I got no problem with that. 533 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 4: I like that Mark Fletcher kid from Miami and he's 534 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 4: not even a first round draft. 535 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 2: Well, the last time, I think, and you tell me 536 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 2: if I'm wrong, the last time the Seahawks gave a 537 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 2: running back a second deal was Chris Carson. 538 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 3: Is that right? Four years ago? 539 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 2: Five years ago, gave him three years, twenty five million 540 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 2: bucks and never panned out because he was hurt. 541 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 3: Right. So I mean, I'm with you, Dick. You know 542 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 3: I'm with you that unless. 543 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 2: You have a special guy like a Bijon or somebody, 544 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey whatever. I think running backs and I realized 545 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 2: that running backs are people too, Right, There's a person 546 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 2: behind that face mask, wearing those helmets and face pads 547 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: and all that. 548 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 3: They're just commodities. 549 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 2: They are the definition of commodities in the National Football League. 550 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 3: They take more of. 551 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: A pounding, more of a beating than almost any other position. 552 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 2: I just think, if you're gonna save money on any 553 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 2: spot on an NFL roster, it's running back. Find me 554 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: a young, hungry guy that's making nothing. Here's the good 555 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 2: news is that we have a ton of cap space. 556 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 2: Was it sixty plus million dollars for this offer? 557 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 3: Is the most by the way in the NFL. 558 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 5: You look at that number and you say, what holes 559 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 5: does this team have to fill for twenty twenty six, 560 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 5: twenty seven? Right, there's not that many holes. And with 561 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 5: the question mark to Sharpbney. You have a known COMMANDI 562 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 5: in Kenneth Walker. If you can give him a two year, 563 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 5: twenty two to twenty four million dollar deal with an 564 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 5: option for a third. 565 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 3: Maybe he takes that. Maybe he says, you know what to. 566 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 5: Get twelve million bucks over the next two years, and 567 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 5: you just pay it because you have the money to 568 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 5: get that quantity. 569 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 2: Have you seen what the franchise tag number is for 570 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 2: running backs next year? Fourteen million dollars? I mean, maybe 571 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: maybe it franchise him and you say, hey, we're in 572 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 2: a window here. Whatever, we're not going to commit long 573 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 2: term like that, the question becomes and the reason why 574 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: I'm bringing this up because obviously we're not concerned about 575 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 2: what's going to happen in March right now. 576 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 3: I mean, the hell with March. 577 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 2: We're talking about Sunday at three thirty right for that 578 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 2: right to go to the freaking Super Bowl. How much 579 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 2: is this gonna help him? How much will this motivate him? 580 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 2: I don't think any of this is gonna hurt him, unless, again, 581 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 2: we get to a point where it's the fourth quarter 582 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 2: and he's just gassed. He's only got what's this season 583 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 2: high in carries? 584 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 3: Like nineteen? Is that right? Whenever? It is? 585 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: Nineteen for eighty one against Arizona? 586 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 3: So he has had a twenty carry game since last year? 587 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 3: Is that correct? Yes? Last season? 588 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: I said nineteen on Saturday? 589 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 3: Right, right? 590 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 2: But sharbonay, in the last two games the Hawks played 591 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 2: that were actually games, not beatings like this Niner game 592 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 2: was on Saturday. Was Week eighteen, and then Week seventeen 593 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 2: at Carolina, and both those games Scharbonne and Kenny Walker 594 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: combined for thirty three carries a piece. So do you 595 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: want the bulk of those thirty three carries to go 596 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 2: to Kenny Walker? Do we want Kenny Walker getting twenty 597 00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 2: five carries this weekend? You want George Hallani getting eight nine? 598 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 2: You want would you rather have in the fourth quarter 599 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 2: seventy eight percent eighty percent Kenny Walker versus one hundred 600 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 2: percent Jones or Halati? Maybe he'll get better as the 601 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 2: game goes on. I think it's fascinating guys to keep 602 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 2: an eye on this and see how they use him 603 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 2: and see what he looks like in the fourth quarter 604 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 2: where he's got twenty five carries under his belt. 605 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you're gonna give him a few more carries, 606 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 4: but you're also gonna throw the ball right because you're 607 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 4: not gonna be up forty one to six, right, so 608 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,719 Speaker 4: you're gonna have to throw thirty five passes, so that 609 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 4: takes some runs away from him. And I think Rashid 610 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 4: Shaheed has got to get four or five carries in 611 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 4: this football game to end. And then you got you 612 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 4: got a guy like cam Akers playing against his old team. 613 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 4: He's gonna be like, not that he wouldn't be motivated 614 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 4: for an NFC championship game anyway, but playing against the 615 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 4: team that he used to start for, there's probably three 616 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 4: or four carries there. 617 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 5: The Haillani thing is a question mark because we don't 618 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 5: know his health. The cam Akers thing is a question 619 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 5: mark just because he hasn't done it in a long time. Honestly, 620 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 5: I am all forgiving Kenny Walker twenty five carries. And 621 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 5: to what you said, sofie the motive level to say 622 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 5: I'm playing for a deal. And if I ball out 623 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 5: in the playoffs, how many times have we seen a 624 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 5: running back ball out in the playoffs earn himself a 625 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 5: massive deal or frankly, not even what wide receivers quarterbacks, 626 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 5: you ball out, you earn a massive deal. Walker's seeing 627 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 5: a fifteen million dollars deal potentially in front of him. 628 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 3: And if you give him twenty five carries, there's no 629 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 3: telling what. Rams just gave up a ton shockingly to 630 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 3: the Bears. So who knows what Walker can do? 631 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Rashid Shihed out of the backfield kind of turns 632 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 2: me on a lot. Deebo Samuel gets me going a 633 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 2: lot in this game, you know because we I mean 634 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: we saw him. 635 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 3: Do it last weekend. 636 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: Hit like a thirty one yard round for God's sakes, right. 637 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 2: I mean, the guy is the ultimate Swiss army knife. 638 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 2: He can do anything you want him to do. I 639 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised if he could play corner if he 640 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 2: asked him too, honestly, So I just think you go 641 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: out and you give up two third day draft picks? 642 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 3: Is that right? For Rashid Shiheed? 643 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: He's a free agent too at the end of the year, 644 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: so he's gonna have to be re signed. But I 645 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 2: would absolutely leanon twenty two out of the backfield ton 646 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: in this game if I had to. 647 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:04,360 Speaker 3: And you know. 648 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: Darnold's injury, Walker's Carrie limit or his workload, how much 649 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: they use Shiheed as a runner? Is this a game 650 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: where Charles cross his foot is a problem against the 651 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 2: Rams defense on Sunday afternoon was not a problem obviously. 652 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 3: In the last game because there was nothing there. 653 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 2: I mean, that was a terrible pass rush from San Francisco. 654 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 2: I mean, my god, the Niners are envious as hell 655 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 2: of the Seahawks pass rush. They were making Brock Purty 656 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: run around all day long in that game. So those 657 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 2: are just some of the things that I'm curious to 658 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 2: see how they developed. This weekend, We're going to break 659 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 2: a little fun with audio and then Chris Peterson's going 660 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 2: to join at four.

That's right, 681 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 4: Felix got eight more years. 682 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 3: This is where they do there.

I think they were 689 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 2: a major reason why social media got to all these 690 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 2: voters and got them elect did so. Yeah, I mean, 691 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 2: the idea of Felix Hernandez making the Hall of Fame, 692 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: I don't think it is as ridiculous now as it 693 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 2: was maybe a couple of years ago.

Dick? 807 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 2: Nick Saban was on the Pat McAfee show before yesterday's 808 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: National Championship well, talking about Indiana's recruiting, said that people 809 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 2: who give stars to high school football players quote, don't 810 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 2: know they're asked from a handful of sand. 811 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 9: Well, you know, I got a little theory about the 812 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 9: stars we never ever looked at. I know Sick doesn't 813 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 9: either had how many stars guy has, because I think 814 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 9: what you all need to do is look at who's 815 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 9: given out the stars. No, yeah, they don't know their 816 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 9: as for it comes of what a football player is. 817 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,280 Speaker 9: So why would you use a coach depend on somebody 818 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 9: who's not even a coach evaluating players to give them stars? 819 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 9: Because it's culture over system that's the most That's what 820 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 9: they've done such a great job of in Indiana. 821 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 3: In my opinion, I got a thought on that. 822 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 4: But you want to go first, Well, the more stars 823 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 4: you have, I mean, it's been proven that there's the 824 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 4: higher percentage of five star guys make the NFL than 825 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 4: four star guys, than three star guys than two star guys. 826 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 1: So it means something. 827 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 4: But I do think there's a self fulfilling prophecy if 828 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 4: Alabama is looking at a player, they're automatically going to 829 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 4: get more stars than if Alabama is not looking at 830 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 4: a play right right, And so that doesn't necessarily make 831 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 4: them a better football player than a guy that's not 832 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 4: being looked like looked at by Alabama for some reason. 833 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,879 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, all these coaches have their own 834 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 2: ranking system. I guarantee you that in the office behind 835 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 2: closed doors, so somebody somewhere is ranking players. Saban's just 836 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 2: telling you that I trust my coaches more than you should. 837 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 2: Chris Fetters and Scott Ecklund over at dog Man and 838 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 2: then number two, if they do sign a really good 839 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 2: class as deemed by those dorks that Saban's talking about, 840 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,839 Speaker 2: they'll certainly take credit for it, that's right. 841 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 3: The Husky's just like. 842 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 1: Look, hey, look at all the four stars we got. 843 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: I mean, are you kidding me? 844 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 2: We got the highest rate class in school history. Oh 845 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 2: he has deemed by who? Chris Fetters and Scott Eckland, 846 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 2: that's who I mean. Give me a break. If the 847 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 2: numbers help their narrative, they'll use them. If they won't, 848 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 2: they don't, Are you kidding me with that? 849 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 4: Give me a break Like that, and a lot of 850 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 4: a lot of things in sports. He helps our argument, 851 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 4: then great, one hundred percent. All right, Hey Dick, did 852 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:25,879 Speaker 4: you happen to hear that? 853 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 3: What's that? 854 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 8: All right? 855 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 2: Going back to the Seahawks belt to ask win, that's 856 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 2: a kind of a new phrase being used a lot 857 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 2: belt to ask win over the Niners last weekend. Here's 858 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 2: what Kyle Shanahan said afterwards about Sam Darnold's obleaque injury 859 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 2: going into the game. 860 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, I know Sam with having oblique stuff, 861 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 8: but you know more and up start like that, but 862 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 8: it takes a while for the toward all to kick in, 863 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 8: so we knew he'd be fine once kickoff came, which 864 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 8: that doesn't really have to do with pressure and stuff, 865 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 8: you know, like sometimes can affect how they throw, but 866 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 8: usually when that toward all kicks in, it doesn't. So 867 00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 8: Sam played really well today, but it was also as 868 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:01,399 Speaker 8: a whole team deal. 869 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 3: So what is he saying drug aided exactly? 870 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 2: I mean, but we all knew that right, Like Milon 871 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 2: was on the air Thursday when the story came out 872 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 2: and said, they'll shoot him up, they'll numb it up 873 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 2: and he'll be okay. Question is if he needs to 874 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 2: throw more? Is the game goes on, how does that 875 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 2: thing react? Right, that's the only question. But yeah, I 876 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 2: mean they can do a lot of things with medication. 877 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 4: Well, it'd be interesting to see what Wednesday, Thursday, and 878 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 4: Friday look like, right, right, if he doesn't throw a 879 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 4: pass all Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and then you know 880 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 4: something's there. But you know, if he throws Wednesday, maybe 881 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 4: if they just make him light or limited or whatever, 882 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not worried too much if he's just 883 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 4: limited in practice over well. 884 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 2: And the other idea is that maybe Sam Darnold is 885 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,240 Speaker 2: just a tough son of a gun and he sucks 886 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 2: it up and goes out. 887 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 3: There and rips their ass. 888 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 2: Anyway, on Sunday, right, we're gonna break Chris Peterson used 889 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 2: to play quarterback. Well, ask him if he ever play 890 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 2: with a strained oh bleak. Coming up on ninety three 891 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 2: three kJ IRFM
