1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,320 Speaker 1: Good morning. Gee, what's going on? Greg? Papa? 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 2: What's going on? 3 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 3: Pa? 4 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,840 Speaker 2: Everybody came to San Francisco. It was a good week. 5 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 2: The weather was incredible. 6 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 4: When this city does not have wind, it is Paris. 7 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: It really is that beautiful with the way escape beauty 8 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:18,480 Speaker 2: and the. 9 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 4: Culture and the diversity and the restaurants and the hills 10 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 4: and everything. 11 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 2: So we had a good week. 12 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 4: I know people were a little freaked out at our 13 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 4: stadium is so far to the south from the city, 14 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 4: and some events were in We're in the East Bay 15 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 4: as well, but it was a good week. Obviously, there 16 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 4: was a coronation of the best team in football. I 17 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 4: think the Rams and Seahawks were very tight, being one 18 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 4: and two, one A, one B and I went back 19 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 4: and forth about the middle of the year. I thought 20 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 4: Seattle was the best team, and the question is, you know, 21 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 4: we're the Niners slot in that. Are they the third 22 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 4: best team in the NFC? 23 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: I don't know. 24 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 4: Chicago, certainly, a few others, Philadelphia, Detroit's going to get better. 25 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 2: And then there's a. 26 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 4: Certain wide receiver we've been talking a lot about trying 27 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 4: to make a trade for or a defensive end that 28 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 4: we're silver and black trying to get him. Probably impossible 29 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 4: to get both or maybe really hard to get either one. 30 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 4: But the Super Bowl is over, Pas, that means everybody 31 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 4: starts zero zero. 32 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 2: Let's go. 33 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: Well, you laid out the perceived twenty twenty six NFC hierarchy. 34 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: What about what about the squads? 35 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 2: Ther quarterback? 36 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 4: Who's your quarterback? If you want Mac Jones, you want 37 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 4: Mac jokes. 38 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: We're going to get into that. This is Greg Papa, 39 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: radio voice of the San Francisco forty nine ers. Can 40 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: be our radio host. He's fantastic. Yours truly is a 41 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: limb from the Greg Papa tree. How does it feel 42 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: when a team from your division wins the Super Bowl? 43 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: Or does it not matter? 44 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 4: Well, it's just happened a couple of years ago when 45 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 4: the La Rams beat us in the NFC Championship game. 46 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 4: And that was hard because we had a ten point 47 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 4: lead going to the fourth quarter of that game. We 48 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 4: had beaten them nine consecutive times, and you know, Cooper 49 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 4: Cup gets loose in the slot and Tekuski Tart drops 50 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 4: one and a pick and then we couldn't convert second 51 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 4: and one, third and two. That was really hard because 52 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 4: I think we felt like I did that. We were 53 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 4: everybody as good as the Rams and would have beaten 54 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 4: Cincinnati and that Super Bowl at SOFI, but we didn't 55 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 4: get the opportunity. 56 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: This is different. I came back and. 57 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: I called one game all year, and I came back 58 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 4: for the Week eighteen game, the January three game against Seattle, 59 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 4: and we scored three points in that game. 60 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: Pa. 61 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 4: We could hardly move the ball. Even in a playoff 62 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 4: game when we lost forty one to six. I thought 63 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 4: we played better in that game. Rock stuffed up in 64 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 4: the pocket, made some plays. Now, we never got an 65 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 4: end zone, so it was no touchdown San Francisco's. It 66 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 4: was two field goals and another one for nine points at 67 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: eight quarters. So I think this time Seattle is so 68 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 4: clearly dominant and they've taken the foundation. 69 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 2: Know what the Niners did to run this division and 70 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: this conference. 71 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 4: I mean the Niners were in the NFC title game 72 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 4: four or five years, starting in twenty nineteen, and they 73 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 4: basically just beat the crap out of the La Rams 74 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 4: and the Seattle Seahawks in the interior lines, both lines 75 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 4: of scrimmage. That is not the case anymore. We could 76 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 4: not stop Seattle's running game either of those games. I 77 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 4: was surprised New England knew a better job against K 78 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 4: nine yesterday and their D line, But their D line 79 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 4: is what ours was in twenty nineteen when we had 80 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 4: a young Nick Bosa and d Ford and Eric Armstead 81 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 4: of the Forest Buck. No, we don't have that right now. 82 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 4: We got to get healthy and get Nick back and 83 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 4: thread back. But I think the reality is in order 84 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 4: to regain the NFC West with the Rams and Seattle, 85 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 4: and I think Arizona's going to be better, I always look. 86 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 2: For them to improve, but we got to get better. 87 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 4: We got to get tougher physically tougher and build this 88 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 4: thing from inside out. And specifically with Seattle, they got 89 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 4: good edge rushers. Obviously they did his thing yesterday and 90 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 4: you know their other edge guy did it, but it's 91 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 4: mainly Leonard Williams and DeMarcus Lawrence and that young guy 92 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: Byron Murphy, the second from Texas, those three interior guys. 93 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 4: So we got to fortify, you know, the middle of 94 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: our of our old line a little bit because our 95 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 4: quarterback is a bit undersize. 96 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: So I knew it was coming. 97 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 4: I thought it was going to be forty to ten 98 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 4: Seattle at one point it was twenty. 99 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 2: Nine to ten. 100 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 4: We finally got there. I thought they would score more 101 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 4: and Sam played okay. The first couple of drives, he 102 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 4: threw three balls PA that could have been intercepted. 103 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: They were undercut and bounce. 104 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 4: And I was like Sam's and you know how much 105 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 4: I love Sam darld loved guy, but I thought, wow, 106 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 4: just don't don't thrown them all. 107 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 2: But he almost did repeatedly, but he avoided it. They 108 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 2: got the winning game going and then. 109 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 4: Ultimately Seattle's front is to bower Drake May And I 110 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 4: don't know if Drake had a band's shoulder what he had, 111 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 4: but he needed to play quicker. 112 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 2: In this game. You can't sit in that pocket and. 113 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 4: Wait for the burning fire, you know, the burning building 114 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 4: to just cut collapse around you, and you don't have 115 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 4: a fire escape. 116 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: You got to get out of there. He did a. 117 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 4: Little bit later in the game, but I think you 118 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 4: waited way too long to get out of there. And 119 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 4: that's what Seattle does, and the Rams can do the 120 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 4: same thing. But they're two back to back drafts that 121 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 4: they had. They have rebuilt their defensive line since Aaron 122 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 4: Donald has left. It's not even the fearsome force. Some 123 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 4: of the seventies. It's the Elite eight. They come at 124 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 4: you with too deep. So the Niners have got to 125 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 4: rebuild the offensive line, They've got to rebuild the defensive 126 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 4: line and take back both lines of scrimmage to compete. 127 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 2: But I think they're the two. 128 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 4: Best teams in the NFL, like FO do you agree? 129 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 2: Seattle and the Rams. 130 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: Well, first and foremost, Greg, Papa, we have buried the 131 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: lead and we have an a topic here that we 132 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: were afraid to ask about. At least I was with 133 00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: the texting at Nordo. Greg just said his bout with leukemia. Yeah, 134 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: he called week eighteen all right, when he was supposed 135 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: to call Week seventeen against the Bears, and then to 136 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 1: back out very very very late. Yep. I didn't know 137 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: how to respond. So therefore, outside of hope things are well, 138 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: love you, I didn't ask him about Week eighteen. He 139 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: caught right covenant collapse. We didn't know this, and you 140 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: got back on the microphone and called a football game. 141 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: I'm so proud of you. 142 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 4: The game before and there were so many great games 143 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 4: in the NFL this year, and you guys were involving 144 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 4: a couple of them, but at rams Seattle game on 145 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 4: Thursday night that went to overtime. And yeah, thirty eight 146 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 4: and seven the Bears Packers games. But the game we 147 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 4: had with the Bears December to twenty eighth that I 148 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 4: was looking to come back for, that would have killed me. 149 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 4: You would have buried me right there in the Lime 150 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 4: seventh broadcast moods, I wouldn't have survived that game. What 151 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 4: a way to go, I know, maybe the second way 152 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 4: to go. But I did come back to next week 153 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 4: and wow, you know there was two many touchdown San 154 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 4: Francisco's in the forty two. So Kyle Shanneck threw me 155 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 4: a solid We short no points on touchdowns. We had 156 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 4: win field goal. 157 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 2: In that game. And that's how good Seattle is. 158 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: You know what. 159 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 4: My heematologists actually cleared me. After we beat Philadelphia in 160 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 4: that playoff game. I was cleared to travel and do 161 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 4: the championship game and the Super Bowl, but Rashid Shaheed 162 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 4: ran the opening kicko back ninety five yards for a touchdown. 163 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 4: Of that did not come close to happening. But I'm 164 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 4: doing better. I'm actually gonna get my boat marrow transplant 165 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 4: market down. February twenty fifth. I'm admitted to the hospital 166 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 4: two weeks from wed me and I'm going to have 167 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 4: the transplant March the fourth. My donor is my younger sister. 168 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 4: I'm gonna cry like a baby think could about it. 169 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 4: She's the perfect twelve for twelve match. Almost impossible to 170 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 4: have that. And my older brother as well. So I'll 171 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 4: be gone for a few months, but can always hop. 172 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 2: On with you. 173 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 4: We'll be watching the combine and the start of the 174 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 4: big year and all that stuff. But anyway, I'm on 175 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 4: the man who the goal is to make it back. 176 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 4: The transplants gnarly recovery. We're looking at three to six months, 177 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 4: so hopefully I make it back. 178 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: By office football, So with the game, you did call 179 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: the Seattle game touchdown list? I mean, was it like 180 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: field goal San France? I mean, what did you do? 181 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 3: Ye? 182 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 4: It wasn't that because we got it right before halftime. 183 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: I don't know if I said it on the air, PA, 184 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 4: but you know me, I was thinking it, so maybe 185 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 4: I said it. We actually played them for four quarters 186 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 4: and scored three points. My thought was, if we play 187 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 4: them four more quarters tonight, we're still not going to 188 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 4: score it. They're that good and then a state would 189 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 4: have it. Exactly two weeks later, we go to Seattle. 190 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 4: Let me play four more quarters, but we scored two 191 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 4: field goals, So maybe I was all. 192 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 3: Extensively and congratulations to them. 193 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 4: It was you know, they took over our locker room, 194 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 4: they took the home locker room, and they were smoking 195 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 4: Stogie's when they claimed the NFC West in the number 196 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 4: one seed. I don't know what the hell they did 197 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 4: to that locker room. And they won the Lombardi yesterday, 198 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 4: probably similar to what the Chiefs did to the Raiders 199 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 4: locker room a couple of years ago. And they beat 200 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 4: us in overtime at the Big All in Vegas. 201 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: Now, Mike McDonald the coach of the Seahawks, what do 202 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: you think of him? And is he a defensive savant 203 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: or greg? Does he just have the best players? 204 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 2: I think both. 205 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 4: We saw him in Baltimore, PA and probably the worst 206 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 4: game Brock Purty has ever played, we played them Christmas 207 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 4: Night twenty twenty three. There was the forty nine Ers 208 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 4: against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night football. 209 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: There was Brock against Lamar. 210 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 4: Christian was also in the mix, but it was whoever 211 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 4: plays better and gets the better records, probably going to 212 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 4: be the NFL most viable player. Brought through three interceptions 213 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 4: in the first half through a fourth in the first 214 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 4: couple of minutes of the second half, got pulled. There 215 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 4: was one play where McDonald blitz both of his corners. 216 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 4: I've never seen that before. And how many times did 217 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 4: they blitz Devin Witherspoon last night, Joe and fright he 218 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 4: was coming all the time. 219 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: But McDonald's that good. 220 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: So if there's a basketball. 221 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 4: Staying, is it the exes and o's or is it 222 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 4: the Jimmy's and the Joe's, Which I don't like that, 223 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 4: you know, hackneat old expression. But the bottom line is 224 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 4: the Jimmies and Joe's are the players. The Xes and 225 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 4: o's are the scheme. Seattle's got both. They've got incredible scheme. 226 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 4: They've got incredible players. Tell me where they're a week 227 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 4: on defense? 228 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: Right? 229 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: Threek walling a little bit, and I think he's a 230 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 3: free agent. 231 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 4: I've actually see what he's gonna do. But the Niners 232 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 4: want to sign him as a free agent. Their their 233 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 4: front is overpowering their linebackers with Ernest Jones. I know 234 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 4: you call them Ernest Jones the fourth, but I go 235 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 4: with Jones IV. 236 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 2: I have a pick line in my arm all the time, 237 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: so I'm always getting an IV. Come on, man, Jones ivatam. 238 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 4: But the two guys that set them apart are Nick 239 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 4: even Worry, who I thought wasn't. 240 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 2: Moving well yesterday. I think he was. 241 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 4: He didn't make the last two tackles and they gave 242 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 4: to finish it. But I thought he was a little 243 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 4: slow yesterday. And then Devin, and they play those guys 244 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: like linebackers. Devin Witherspoon's their nickelback. He lines up as 245 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 4: a linebacker, and they play even Worry along with the 246 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 4: other two safeties Kobe Bryant and. 247 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 2: Julian Love, who had a pick yesterday and he plays 248 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: in the box. 249 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 4: So and I think specifically they kind of put this 250 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 4: defense together to deal with Christian McCaffrey and all the 251 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: option routes that Christian loves to run out of the 252 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 4: backfield no matter which side he. 253 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: Comes out of. 254 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: You gotta deal with Witherspoon on this side. You gotta 255 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 4: deal with even Worry on the side. And they're just 256 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 4: so fast, they're long armed, they're different athletes. Even Worry's 257 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 4: much taller, but they're both long. Witherspoon, they blitz a lot. 258 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 4: He had four unblocked rushers yesterday. He obviously got the 259 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 4: tip on the interception by Nomoso, but I thought he 260 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 4: was the MVP of the game. Honestly, they had to 261 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 4: give it to a guy that could stance. But I 262 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 4: think the biggest them pack was Devin Witherspoon splitzing. And 263 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 4: I was shot in New England and Josh McDaniels couldn't 264 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 4: figure out a way to block that. Even when they did, 265 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 4: they allowed somebody else to be a free hitter. So 266 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 4: they're good. They are really good. You've been watching ball forever. 267 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 4: I mean the two thousand Ravens, the two thousand and 268 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 4: two Buccaneers. Either way, I was doing the Raiders then, 269 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 4: and they beat us both Baltimore in the championship game 270 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 4: and Tampa Bay and the John Gruten Bowl Super Bowl 271 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 4: thirty seven. Then you go right to the Legion of 272 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 4: Boom and that group, and even Worry does remind me 273 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 4: a lot of Cam Chancellor and then the no Fly 274 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 4: zone that won a Super Bowl at Levi's ten years ago. 275 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 2: The game yesterday was. 276 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 4: A lot like when Denver beat Carolina in Super Bowl fifties. 277 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 4: So I don't know if I'm leaving a couple of 278 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 4: great defenses out, but this is one of the best 279 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 4: defenses for one year. 280 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 2: So let's see what they do next year. 281 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 4: Legita Boom did it four or five years. I know 282 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 4: they won just the one Super Bowl, but they had 283 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 4: to run as good as your purple people leaders like 284 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 4: Grants teams in the seventies where nobody scored more than 285 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 4: two touchdowns on Minnesota's defense, And it was the same 286 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 4: with Seattle. No, obviously, you know Seale got one. You 287 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 4: guys had your hearts broken in a lot of Super Bowls. 288 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: But stop. 289 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 4: I think that's the kind of defense we're looking at 290 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 4: here with the Seahawks. 291 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: Ain no doubt. And Seattle's offensive coordinator Clint Kubiak, well, 292 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: he was the offensive coordinator here in twenty one. He 293 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: was with your Niners in twenty twenty three. His brother 294 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: Clay is the coordinator there now. And Clint is going 295 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: to become head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. All right, 296 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 1: did you ever see that one coming with Clint Kubiak? 297 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 4: Yes, and no, I got to be honest. First of all, 298 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 4: they're both incredibly quiet guys. They're not like Mike McDaniel 299 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 4: who became the head coach of the Miami Dolphins, Miami Mike, 300 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 4: or even Mike Lafloor who's now the head coach of Arizona, 301 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 4: who we had in our staff, and not Robert Salard 302 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 4: or Mikoh. 303 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: These guys were really quiet and. 304 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 4: They looked a lot of light. They're brothers, they're like 305 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 4: one year apart. Whenever I saw him in the hallway, 306 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 4: I couldn't tell Clint from Clay, so I gave him 307 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 4: a coobs, you know, kind of like Normy. Don't know 308 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 4: they say died, but chief. 309 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell. But I was a little. 310 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 4: Not amazed, but somewhat impressed by how quiet they were. 311 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 4: I like quiet people because I'm not. I'd no one 312 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 4: that's doing all the talking. And I never learned, but 313 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 4: quiet people don't do learn and they and they, so 314 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 4: I didn't know how I had interpret his quiet. Both 315 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 4: of them really like the Kyle mat want them talking. 316 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 4: And you know, Clay did speak to the media this year, 317 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 4: but he hadn't before. 318 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,239 Speaker 2: Chris Furster, our old line coach. 319 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 4: Was the guy I kind of, you know, spoke to 320 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 4: the media as the OC, So, now, how's he going 321 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 4: to be as a head coach. We've seen a lie 322 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 4: guys be terrific offensive coordinators. My friend North Turner was 323 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 4: one of the best of all time, and what they 324 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 4: did in Dallas with the Triplets and Norm had some 325 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 4: good years, but normal overall, I think just didn't. 326 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: Have the toughness to be a head coach. 327 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 4: There have been other guys that just had a hard 328 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 4: time pulling it off, you know. Obviously Josh McDaniels, guy 329 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 4: appeared in his ten Super Bowl yesterday as an assistant 330 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 4: coach and won six. He was not a good head coach, 331 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 4: mismanaged games in Denver and then a little bit I 332 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 4: got to know him when he was the Raider coach. 333 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 2: In a word, he was prickly. He was hard to. 334 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 4: Deal with, and you really got to, you know, play 335 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 4: up to these to these players and massage their egos 336 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 4: a little bit. So I'm not shocked because, you know, 337 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 4: if you're watching their offense and you're Tom Brady, it's like, 338 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 4: who's this guy? You look at the way they line 339 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 4: up Jackson Smith and Jigma in the backfield, but the 340 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 4: way they got the running game going against the Rams, 341 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 4: they rang the ball against the Rams. They rang the 342 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 4: ball against us and they lost Charbonay early in the year. 343 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 4: They were turning it over too much and they were 344 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 4: not budding it effectively. They solve both problems. He cleaned 345 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 4: up Sam and the turnovers. And you know how much 346 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 4: I love Sam. But Sam does scare me every now 347 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 4: and then. He can talk about his toes and he 348 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 4: goes through his progressions. 349 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 2: Like a mad man. 350 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 4: He's a little happy fetish like Peyton was. But I 351 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 4: ultimately it's going to be how does he get these 352 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 4: men to lead? 353 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: You know, to lead these men? 354 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 4: Al Davis always had the line, can he stand in 355 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 4: front of the room and talk to the whole team 356 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 4: and we know they can X and O's now always 357 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 4: wanted an offensive coordinator. I ran up to John Gruden 358 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 4: over the weekend in San Francisco, and John could do both. 359 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 4: John could scheme it up as well as anybody in history, 360 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 4: and also could stand in front of the room and 361 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 4: make them all laugh and tear into him when he 362 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 4: had too. That'll be I know Clint can can stem 363 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 4: it up. Can he lead men. 364 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 3: To do what they do what they need to do 365 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 3: because they. 366 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 4: Got you tell me this is the worst roster in 367 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 4: the NFL. Tennessee is not good. I was kind of 368 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 4: surprise Solids at that. And he likes the quarterback. If 369 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 4: they like Mendoza, then you know, good luck. But it's 370 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 4: not a great roster, so they've got to rebuild. But 371 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 4: we were talking about the Niners, the D line, the 372 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 4: old line, and the trenches. The Raiders have a much 373 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 4: more profound issue in their both of their lines of Scrimmagious. 374 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: Greg pop up play by play voice for the San 375 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: Francisco forty nine ers k NBR radio radio show host. 376 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: Just a couple of close here we mentioned forty nine 377 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: ers back up Mac Jones, the backup to Brock Birdy. 378 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 1: Do you think there's a market for the man whose 379 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: actual first name is mccorkyl. Mccorkyl Jones. Mac Jones has 380 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: a year late as all Hi, Yeah, his name's on mccorkyl. 381 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: He has a year left on his deal. Is there 382 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: is there a market for him? 383 00:17:59,240 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 2: Huge market? 384 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: Right? 385 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 4: Malik Willis will get paid the most because he's a 386 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 4: free agent. A Corcal mac Daddy Mack the Knife Jones 387 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 4: Mac ten is under contract for one more year. So 388 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 4: the Niners are saying the right thing, which is we 389 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 4: will not trade mac Jones and under any circumstance. And 390 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 4: you guys know how important a backup quarterback is and 391 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 4: how that can flip the fortunes of a year when 392 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 4: you look at you know, the eleven on offense, the 393 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 4: eleven on defense, all the different sub packages like fifteen 394 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 4: play on each side. 395 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: How important is your backup quarterback. 396 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 4: To the other thirty positions twenty nine players on the 397 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 4: fit right there? Is it more important than your right guard? 398 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 4: Or so you loose the quot. If we lost Frock 399 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 4: and did not have a serviceable backup quarterback, we wouldn't 400 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 4: have made the playoffs. He wouldn't have beaten Philadelphia. He 401 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 4: went five and three, and he showed amazing toughness, and 402 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 4: we studied him. I wanted them over try. I thought 403 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 4: he was by far a much more solid pick. He 404 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 4: was the most reckless pick in the history of the NFL, 405 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,719 Speaker 4: considering the level of football he played at, the limited 406 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 4: football he played in order to go to State, and what. 407 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 2: We had to give up to get him. So they 408 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 2: just couldn't do it anyway. So I well, what if. 409 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 4: They get No one's going to offer a one for 410 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 4: what if somebody offers a Jay two pick, it's more 411 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 4: of a second. 412 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 2: Round pick and the other thing. And I know, you 413 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 2: know him. 414 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 4: Why are the Atlanta Falcons cutting Kirk Cousins money? 415 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 3: I thought, well, yeah, why. 416 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: Are they doing it? Money? 417 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: Yeah? 418 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 2: Physical? What's wrong with them? 419 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: I think it's West Durham. Our friend was on the 420 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 1: radio show last week and Cousins also was on Thursday, 421 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: and I didn't go down the road on like, hey, 422 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: March thirteenth, Kirk, Oh, what's going to happen to your cash? 423 00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: I was just talking about Stefanski and Kirk offered, you know, like, well, 424 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: you know, there's a pretty big date there in March, 425 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: so we'll see what's what's happening moving forward with Atlanta. 426 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: So for for Cousins to share that, then it's definitely 427 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: on his mind in the mind of the organization. But 428 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't. And and it's it's the cap number. 429 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 1: It's just the whole money thing, the whole money thing. 430 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 2: Man. 431 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 4: What if they cut him, then the new team wouldn't 432 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 4: have to pick up a contract? 433 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 3: Right? 434 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 1: What do I look like Elias Sporting Bureau? What do 435 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: I look like Spo Track? 436 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 4: I have no idea So the point I'm making is 437 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 4: I I well, that game that Kirk Cousins had against 438 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 4: us on Monday Night Football the week before Soldier Field, 439 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 4: that's the best game he's ever played. 440 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,360 Speaker 2: He was on fire. We couldn't deal with them. 441 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 4: Next week he owned the Achilles and I saw he 442 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 4: wasn't stable in Atlanta and they paid him a lot 443 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 4: of money. But I thought, we played Atlanta this year 444 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 4: on Sunday Night Football. And I'm not a Michael Pennix 445 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 4: junior fan. He is a scattershot. He is not accurate 446 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 4: at all. Occasionally deep, but just not accurate. I thought, 447 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 4: if they played Cousins, They're gonna be a lot better. 448 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 4: And it took a while because he just didn't have 449 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 4: his base, I would say. 450 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,640 Speaker 2: But then I like a Monday night game where they beat. 451 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 4: The Rams, and I'm thinking, WHOA Kirk Cousins is the 452 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 4: starting quarterback. So if Atlanta, to an answer to Matt 453 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 4: Jones question, Kyle Shanahan loves Kirk Cousins tight Mike Shanahan 454 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 4: loves them. This all goes back to Washington, Yeah, when 455 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 4: he took over from RGI III. So if if Kirk 456 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 4: Cousins is a street free agent and you can get 457 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 4: them for a veteran minimum or something, and they just 458 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 4: cut him off the team. Yeah, I could see bringing 459 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 4: him in, Kurt and now all of a sudden, he's. 460 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 2: Your backup quarterback and maybe you entertain doesn't bought a 461 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 2: trading back to Patty getting a second round yere. 462 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: My opinion doesn't mean it's right, but it's my opinion. 463 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: H kirk Oh showed himself enough last year that he 464 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: ain't going anywhere unless he's going to start, you know 465 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: what I mean. 466 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: So you don't think he's a starting quarterback? 467 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 1: No, I do, but I just know. 468 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 2: Do you think somebody will employed him to be a starter? Yeah? 469 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: I think Kirk. I think Kirk will identify a place 470 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: that he will start and if he can't find it, well, 471 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: then maybe the next level Shanny take is in play. 472 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 4: Well, why did when Atlanta get rid of him? They 473 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 4: don't They don't have a quarterback. Michael Penix is not 474 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 4: going to play right at the beginning of the year 475 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 4: with his injury. Why don't they he presents I don't 476 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 4: understand that. 477 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: Well, it's it's if Kirk refuses to restructure, you know, 478 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: it's that that that plays into it too, you know, 479 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: and and I just for some reason, I mean, I 480 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: don't think Cousins ever will forget. When he was driving 481 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: to the draft a couple of years ago to do 482 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: an appearance, and he's listening to the K and br 483 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: of Atlanta and then he he hears what we just did? 484 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: What for who? And like nobody tipped him off on it? 485 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: And then now all of a sudden, that thing's all. 486 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 1: I just I think that bugged him to a level 487 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 1: that's a little higher than people think. 488 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 4: They shut out one hundred million dollars guaranteed, right, that 489 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 4: would have all me to. 490 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 2: Forget and move on. 491 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 4: But anyway, so it asser you're Matt Jones question. Let's 492 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 4: see where the off season goes, and if. 493 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: Some quarterback leak that or another one that Kyle. 494 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 4: Loves hits the street.

So it's a 515 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 4: little bit like when I did that last game of 516 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 4: the year Jan three. It was a little like, you know, 517 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 4: attending your own weight or funeral and I am alive. 518 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: I'm here. 519 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 4: So anyway, it was a lot of that, but it 520 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 4: was it was great.

As the Miami Dolphins 567 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: and Arizona Cardinals navigate their futures with new head coaches, 568 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: both teams would like to find trade partners for their 569 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks. The Dolphins would like to explore trading Tua 570 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 1: Toungua Iiloa. Ditto for the Cardinals and Kyler Murray. But 571 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: it remains unclear whether a deal for either quarterback is 572 00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: feasible given the financial hurdles for an acquiring team. There 573 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: certainly are expected to be a handful of teams in 574 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: the quarterback acquiring market right shifty, a list that could 575 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: include the New York Jets, the Atlanta Falcons, the Cleveland Browns, 576 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, Miami Dolphins, Arizona Cardinals, and Minnesota Vikings. 577 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: Oh Miami is expected to be willing to pay down 578 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: a portion of tung of Bi Looa's contract to help 579 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: facilitate a trade, sources told ESPN, though the money still 580 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: makes it challenging.

The incident, which resulted in Shngoon's ejection in 599 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: Wednesday's loss to the Boston Celtics, went viral online in 600 00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: the following days, with enhanced audio making his insult to 601 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: Jenna Renault Claire quote the Rocket Center, sometimes you can't 602 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: control yourself. But I should have known better. But I 603 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: fixed it. Then I went to the locker room and 604 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: I apologized it. I apologized. I shook her hand and 605 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: said that would never happen again. It just happened in 606 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: the heat of the moment. Then she understood and it 607 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: was good on both ends. Kfan Sports Talk Time, eleven 608 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: thirty nine. Back to Football, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN wrote 609 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: over the weekend, Aaron Rodgers has emerged from the twenty 610 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: twenty five season, refreshed. One source with whom I spoke, 611 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: excuse me, one source with whom Jeremy spoke said. Rogers 612 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: is in a much better place coming out of this 613 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: year with the Steelers compared to his previous two years 614 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: with the Jets. He greatly valued his experience in Pittsburgh, 615 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: and teammates raved about him, both publicly and in exit 616 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: meetings with the team. The Steelers have been opened to 617 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: a Rogers return since early in the season, an I 618 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: don't sense that has changed, writes Jeremy Fowler. The Steelers 619 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: combination of head coach Mike McCarthy and now offensive coordinator 620 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: formerly with the Vikings, Brian Angelico makes the transition seamless 621 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: in that they both were with A Rodger in Green Bay. Wow. 622 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: Now on the flip side, right, Jeremy, The Steelers really 623 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: like how Will Howard has developed A preseason hand injury 624 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: stunted his progress, but Pittsburgh believes it might have something 625 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: His command of the huddle, sharpness of the line of scrimmage, 626 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: an ability to ingratiate with teammates have stood out. Rogers 627 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: took pride in mentoring Howard, so another year of that 628 00:30:53,960 --> 00:31:02,479 Speaker 1: pairing could be effective. KFA and Sports Talk Time the 629 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: the purported lines for the Team USA men's hockey squad 630 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: have been revealed. The four words lines one to four 631 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: line one the wingers Brady Kachuck and his brother Matthew Centerman, 632 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: Jack Eiicle, second line Austin Matthews centers a line with 633 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay's Jake Genzel and you Tass Clayton Keller. Third 634 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: line Taje Thompson. He'll be the center for Kyle Conner, 635 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: Matt Boldy one of the wingers, and the fourth line 636 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: Rock Nelson Minnesota go Crazy. Rock Nelson supposedly centering a 637 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: line for Dylan Larkin and j. T. Miller. The two 638 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: left out there, Jack Hughes and Vincent Trocheck, and they'll 639 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: both play now. According to NHL media, Ichel played with 640 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: the Kachuck brothers at the Four Nations face off. They 641 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: had obvious chemistry, so it makes sense to run that 642 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: back and see if it can work. Matthews played with 643 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: Gensel at the Four Nations too. Hughes was on that 644 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: line last year. Mckeller fits as a natural left wing 645 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: and a setup man for Matthews and Gensel, who are 646 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: elite goal scorers. This could be Team USA's highest scoring line. 647 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: Thompson has played well at center for the Buffalo Sabers, 648 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: and having his six foot six frame going up and 649 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: down the middle of the ice, well, that's going to 650 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: create problems for the opposition. Baldy has dogged on the 651 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: puck and scores. Connor's speed and shot would play well 652 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: with that. Thompson's net front presence and Baldy's ability to 653 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: operate in tight spaces. O Lee cow the fourth line 654 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: has speed, a strong defensive conscience, and elite offensive ability. 655 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: The US will get quality shifts from that group every 656 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: time they go up and down the boards. Hughes injury 657 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: situation with the New Jersey Devils makes him the thirteenth 658 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: forward for now, but he can be a power play specialist. 659 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 1: Trocheck is waiting in the wings, a touch every part 660 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: of the game's centerman who can play any role. Now 661 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: to the Blue Liners first pairing. According to NHL Media, 662 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: Quinn Hughes and Brock Faber, second, Zach Wareensky and Charlie mclvoy. Third, 663 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: Jakob or, Jacob Slavin and Jake Sanderson. Then Noah Hannafin 664 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: and Jackson Lacombe. Jackson Lacombe goalies first, Connor Hellenbach Hellibuck 665 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: secondly Jay Cottinger, thirdly Jeremy Swayman. The US debuts on Thursday. 666 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: KFA and Sports Talk time is eleven forty three Good Morning. 667 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: The USA women's team plays today at one forty against 668 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: Switzerland and tomorrow against Canada. Both preliminary games, Team USA 669 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: women beat Chechia and Finland by a combined ten to one. 670 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: In the first two prelims, Gopher Abby Murphy had a 671 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: goal and an assist.

Yeah, So I found something into which 695 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: we may dive tomorrow. Not just with the NFC West, 696 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: but the off season situation with good teams teams period, 697 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: but good teams with loads of cash looking to re 698 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: up their own or find new stock. According to over 699 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: the cap, the NFC West could be active spenders in 700 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 1: free agency or make key re signings. Now. First and foremost, 701 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans, they're not in that division. They're one 702 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: hundred and four point seven million dollars under the cap 703 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 1: and they play in Nashville. Holy Cow. Secondly, Seahawks seventy 704 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: three point three under the cap, rams forty eight point 705 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: two under the cap, eighth best of teams heading into 706 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 1: the offseason. This is courtesy of the LA Times. The 707 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers tenth best under the cap, they're at 708 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: forty three million under, and the Mike Laflor led Arizona 709 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: Cardinals forty two point two million under currently over the 710 00:36:56,080 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: salary cap, according to the LA Times, Packers, Texans, Bears, Saints, Bills, Lions, Jaguars, Dolphins, Cowboys, Chiefs, 711 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 1: and Vikings. And speaking of all this in closing, it's 712 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: we talked earlier about Mike McDonald has a D e 713 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: I E I O and on his D a bunch 714 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: of dogs E I E IO. So we brought that 715 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: up and it's like, are his is he a savant? 716 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,760 Speaker 1: I mean, are you schemes just super fresh and unique 717 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: or does he just have the best players. Yeah, it's 718 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: obviously a combo of the two, depending on how you 719 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 1: want to lay out the percentage. But you mentioned John Schneider, 720 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: the general manager for the champion, the Champion Chickens, the 721 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: champion Seahawks. Some of the moves that he's made. All right. 722 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: Ernie Jones, the fourth, all right, Ernie Jones the fourth 723 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: spent three and a half his first three and a 724 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: half years with a division rival of the La Rams, 725 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: the Rams. After Jones had a one hundred and forty 726 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: five tackle year, he led him in tackles. Future looks bright. 727 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: They got this cat named Omar Spates. So hey, Omar's 728 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: cheap and Omar can play. So we're going to trade 729 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: Ernie Jones because we just can't get together on the 730 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: contract stuff. So August of twenty twenty four, they trade 731 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 1: him to the Tennessee Titans. All right, Well, then the 732 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: Titans got frustrated that they couldn't get together on like 733 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: a contract bit or whatever. So then well, first he 734 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: was traded to the Titans for a fifth and a 735 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: seventh in the twenty twenty sixth draft. All right, off 736 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty five tackles and only four years 737 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: of play. So from there, Tennessee got frustrated with him, 738 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 1: traded him to Seattle October of twenty twenty four. So 739 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 1: they're in the season, they're working with his representation on 740 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: a new contract. They're kind of liking him. They loving him, 741 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,760 Speaker 1: but they're kind of liking him. Yeah, Well, they couldn't 742 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: get together on anything. So Tennessee then trades Ernie Jones 743 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: the fourth October of twenty twenty four for linebacker something 744 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: called Jerome Baker and a fourth round pick. I mean 745 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 1: that's next level maneuvering right there, just like the trade 746 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: deadline move for Rashid Shaheed. Then they're like, yeah, come 747 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: for the punt and kick returns, but Lee for the 748 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: downfield speed, which kind of killed the con yesterday because 749 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: he got behind Christian Gonzales twice and on prize picks. 750 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: All he needed was a long reception and that Cato's 751 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: gonna close on hundreds, but he couldn't get it done. 752 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 1: Glad we got it done today.
