<v Speaker 4>I'm doing great.

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 5>You know, the wife really likes the zoom thing because

0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 5>then I you know, I got to comb my hair

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 5>and you know, take look halfway presentable.

0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:06.240
<v Speaker 4>So thanks for you for your service.

0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 2>No, well you've always been a guy with the best

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 2>connection in the business. That's always been like a hallmark

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:12.720
<v Speaker 2>of you. But now that we get to see ill

0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.280
<v Speaker 2>cleaned up too, I would prefer you. You can come

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:16.000
<v Speaker 2>on with BedHead.

0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:17.560
<v Speaker 3>You're good. You don't have to clean up for us.

0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 4>I got a haircut yesterday. Okay, you go.

0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:22.200
<v Speaker 2>In honor of the tier, in honor of dropping the tears.

0:01:22.959 --> 0:01:26.080
<v Speaker 2>He cleaned it up nicely. Okay, well let's start. There's

0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:27.880
<v Speaker 2>so many different ways to go with that. Let's start

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:31.120
<v Speaker 2>with number one. It's Patrick Mahomes And I think there's

0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 2>almost like a narrative out there right now that is

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:36.320
<v Speaker 2>he number one? Right, i'd be like that coming off

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 2>the injury and questions, do you tell me, were you

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 2>surprised at all that he still is number one? From

0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:45.600
<v Speaker 2>your And by the way, just making sure for people

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 2>don't know, this is a vast survey of NFL executives

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 2>in front office types, right.

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, fifty coaches and execs. I think there's eight gms,

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 5>nine head coaches, maybe fifteen coordinators. You know a lot

0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 5>of people that prepare to face all these guys. So

0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:00.880
<v Speaker 5>you know, obviously Mahomes gets a ton of respect somebody.

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 5>You know, it's it's been said before. You know, he's

0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:06.960
<v Speaker 5>sort of in the Brady seat. You know, Tom Brady

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:09.120
<v Speaker 5>like got to a point where he's just gonna be

0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:11.000
<v Speaker 5>Tier one, Like you're not gonna it would take a

0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:14.240
<v Speaker 5>lot of years of really bad play to get him

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 5>out of there, right, And so he was. He was

0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:19.800
<v Speaker 5>unanimous tier one until like one of my last ballots,

0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:21.959
<v Speaker 5>one of the last ballots was a two, So he

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:24.799
<v Speaker 5>gets one two. He's still top of the survey. A

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:26.680
<v Speaker 5>ton of people have a ton of respect for him,

0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:27.560
<v Speaker 5>and I think that.

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 4>I like that. I like the fact that people just

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 4>don't overreact on the short term.

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:36.960
<v Speaker 5>One of the points that was made in this was

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:41.919
<v Speaker 5>I went back and looked Joe Montana had three straight

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 5>one and done starts in the playoffs. And if you

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.360
<v Speaker 5>go back and read and I've done it. I went

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 5>back in the archives, read the you know, the chronicle

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 5>and Glenn Dickey and guys writing about, you know, what

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.040
<v Speaker 5>was going on back then. There was some there was

0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 5>some angst and obviously they had Steve Young there and

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 5>and there was talk and shoot, Tanna won the next

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 5>two MVPs. You know, so I think people feel like

0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:10.160
<v Speaker 5>Mahomes has earned that regard right that they could usually

0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 5>win the next two MVPs.

0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:14.440
<v Speaker 6>Mike Murph and I were going through these exercise just

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 6>a week or so ago. Listen out our top ten quarterbacks,

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 6>and it seems like there's almost a consensus from the

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.120
<v Speaker 6>tier one quarterbacks, the top four to five quarterbacks in

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 6>the league.

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 3>But then it.

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.320
<v Speaker 6>Feels like once you get to that five, six to

0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:28.080
<v Speaker 6>twelve thirteen range, you could pretty much shuffle and put

0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:29.359
<v Speaker 6>together the list anyway you want.

0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 5>I believe that too, and at that point the list

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 5>may say more about you and how you view the game, right,

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 5>And so one of the things I did was, you know,

0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.920
<v Speaker 5>break it down by hey, what did the coordinators think

0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 5>versus or what did the offensive coaches think versus defense? Right,

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 5>what did the gms or personnel people think compared to others?

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 5>I thought justin Herbert was pretty fascinating that way. You know,

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 5>coming in at six, hasn't really done it yet in

0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 5>the playoffs, yet everybody would want to have them as

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 5>their quarterback. Almost all the teams below Herbert would want

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:00.120
<v Speaker 5>to have them right.

0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:02.120
<v Speaker 4>On their team.

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 5>Might even trade their guy, even if they won a

0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:06.520
<v Speaker 5>Super Bowl with them, Sam, Darnold, Joe and hurts that

0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:09.320
<v Speaker 5>you'd rather have Herbert right, But it does get to

0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 5>be you could defend putting them lower.

0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:17.080
<v Speaker 2>We're talking to Mike Sando does the great quarterback tiers

0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:20.560
<v Speaker 2>and fifty NFL head coaches and front office and gms

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 2>and executives and coordinators all ranking these quarterbacks. It's one

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 2>of the most fun things to do in the NFL.

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Pat Mahomes number one. Before we get to Brock, I

0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:30.200
<v Speaker 2>do want to talk about the fact that you say

0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 2>the four are locked in, and the four Josh Allen

0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 2>and Joe Burrow and Matt Stafford and Patrick Mahomes, And

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:39.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm a little surprised even I have I call it five.

0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 2>I still put Lamar there. You tell us what did

0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:45.919
<v Speaker 2>the league say about Lamar? Why is he not in

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:47.880
<v Speaker 2>that same tier as those other guys.

0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:50.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, clearly last year wasn't as good for him,

0:04:50.600 --> 0:04:52.400
<v Speaker 4>and his legs weren't there. You know, he didn't run.

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:57.040
<v Speaker 5>He still got what twenty twenty eight votes I believe

0:04:57.080 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 5>in in twenty two votes in tier one. So you

0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 5>know a lot of guys forty percent of the panel

0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 5>basically little more than that are still putting him in

0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 5>Tier one. But his rushing yards went down to twenty

0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.039
<v Speaker 5>five yards per game. It was fifty before that, and

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 5>it was in the seventies before that, So what is

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 5>he without that dynamic running ability? I think people feel

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:17.159
<v Speaker 5>like he's probably a high two mike.

0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:19.920
<v Speaker 6>Getting down to brock Party at the number eleventh ranking

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.799
<v Speaker 6>in Tier two, he got one Tier one vote, thirty

0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 6>four Tier two votes, and fifteen Tier three votes. What

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 6>do you think the league wide perspective is on brock

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:30.280
<v Speaker 6>Party going into year six.

0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:33.720
<v Speaker 5>I think he's really established himself as an upper chier

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 5>quarterback who is probably not going to go, you know,

0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:42.240
<v Speaker 5>to into Tier one unless he would have really put

0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 5>it on his back and maybe do some things physically

0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:49.360
<v Speaker 5>that you know, it's harder to do. But all the

0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.360
<v Speaker 5>comments on him are pretty much positive. I think he's

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.479
<v Speaker 5>just he's had a career high number in this thing.

0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 5>Is his votes for the best they've ever been? I don't,

0:05:58.040 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 5>But I don't think anyone's saying he's necessarily going to

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:02.159
<v Speaker 5>go to A one. I think still people still do

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:06.120
<v Speaker 5>give some credit, I think rightfully so to Kyle Shiannan

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 5>who does a great job with the offense. But shoot,

0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 5>this is not a bad place to be. He's tied

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 5>for eleventh with what is he tied with? Killer Williams?

0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 4>I believe m.

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 5>And you know, you'd probably if I had to go

0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.039
<v Speaker 5>with the next five games, I'd probably take Rock Purty,

0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:22.520
<v Speaker 5>you know. Just he's going to play four good games,

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:26.680
<v Speaker 5>and I don't know how many Kileb Williams is gonna play.

0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:28.600
<v Speaker 5>He might play one, he might play five. Right, He's

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.240
<v Speaker 5>a little all over the place probably still, But I

0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.160
<v Speaker 5>think for the long term, you could see that Caleb

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.159
<v Speaker 5>Williams may pass him just on the talent.

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I say Caleb's probably needs a little more evidence.

0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:41.040
<v Speaker 2>The pull quote you guys have on Brock it's pretty flattering.

0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 2>It's from a defensive coach. It says stronger than you think,

0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:47.159
<v Speaker 2>faster than you think, better than you think, almost like

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 2>a six million dollar man type of compliment.

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 3>There.

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:52.760
<v Speaker 5>It shows you guys were right all the time, because

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:54.280
<v Speaker 5>that's what you were saying five years ago or three

0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:55.360
<v Speaker 5>years ago when people were.

0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:56.360
<v Speaker 4>Trying to put him in Tier three.

0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 5>He's stronger than you think, he's faster, he's better than

0:06:59.880 --> 0:07:00.240
<v Speaker 5>you think.

0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:02.480
<v Speaker 4>Right, And now people agree.

0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:04.479
<v Speaker 2>It's his mobility that goes there too. We're talking to

0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Mike Sando here, and you know, guys who moved up

0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 2>a tier are catching our eyes, guys, and these are

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 2>guys who Marcus and I sort of disagreed on he had.

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.600
<v Speaker 3>You had Caleb in there, right yep? And I did not.

0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:16.440
<v Speaker 3>And then I had Drake May and you did not.

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 6>No, I did not.

0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:19.600
<v Speaker 2>So what do you think the league those two young guys.

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.679
<v Speaker 2>One guy went to a super Bowl, the other guy didn't.

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:24.720
<v Speaker 2>But these two guys are kind of the with a bullet,

0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:26.480
<v Speaker 2>aren't they? Drake May and Caleb Williams.

0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 4>They are.

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:29.880
<v Speaker 5>You know, I thought that there might be even more

0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:32.000
<v Speaker 5>excitement around Drake May. I mean, just went to the

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:34.560
<v Speaker 5>super Bowl and all of that. I think it was

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 5>solid excitement, But it wasn't like, oh, this guy's a one.

0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:38.240
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 5>I think people still people feel good about him. They

0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.320
<v Speaker 5>feel really good about him. So it'll be interesting to see.

0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.040
<v Speaker 5>You know, some people may think he can go become

0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 5>a one. I think more people probably think Caleb Williams

0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.880
<v Speaker 5>physically could become a one. I just don't know if

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:55.600
<v Speaker 5>the consistency, the consistency's going to be there with him.

0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 5>He is such a hold the ball player and for

0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:01.400
<v Speaker 5>that matter, or Drake may takes a ton of sex,

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:06.160
<v Speaker 5>but it's hard to be consistent when you're using your

0:08:06.240 --> 0:08:08.280
<v Speaker 5>legs all the time, and so that that could be

0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:10.600
<v Speaker 5>something to watch for both those guys, but especially Caleb.

0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 6>Jordan Love is a man that is ranked one spot

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 6>ahead of brock Party in these tier rankings at number

0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:17.480
<v Speaker 6>ten overall. Now, I did have him as a top

0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:19.920
<v Speaker 6>ten quarterback, one spot behind brock Party at number nine

0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:22.160
<v Speaker 6>in my rankings. But Mike, what do you think the

0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.360
<v Speaker 6>maybe difference is between a Jordan Love and a brock Party.

0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 6>Is there a thought that maybe Jordan Love has a

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 6>higher ceiling with his athleticism or why do you think

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 6>he's one spot ahead.

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:34.120
<v Speaker 4>Of Brock How much this draft day still matter? Yeah? Good, Yes,

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:35.760
<v Speaker 4>I do think that there's some of that.

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:37.760
<v Speaker 5>I do think, And look, there's a reason why guys

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:40.360
<v Speaker 5>go in the first round physically. You know, there's a

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:43.120
<v Speaker 5>difference between the two and it could be that simple.

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:48.200
<v Speaker 5>But certainly the production of Brock Party has been probably

0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:52.120
<v Speaker 5>more consistent for a longer period of time. You know,

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.280
<v Speaker 5>is there a huge difference between ten and tied for eleventh.

0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 5>Not really, I mean they're super close to each other.

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.760
<v Speaker 5>But again, that could be one where people think that

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:00.319
<v Speaker 5>love has a chance to go high.

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Mike Sander's voice you hear from the Athletic and see

0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:04.840
<v Speaker 2>him on our zoom too on a YouTube here he

0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:07.760
<v Speaker 2>dropped the quarterback tears column, which has gone through the

0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:10.439
<v Speaker 2>years has prettier and prettier graphics, by the way, with it.

0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 2>This is the one that forty nine ers fans love

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:16.760
<v Speaker 2>to hate. Dak Prescott and Marcus didn't even put him

0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 2>in his top ten. I think it was out of spite.

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:22.640
<v Speaker 2>I sure did. He went up five spots at this

0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:24.839
<v Speaker 2>point in his career. Huh, getting that much better? Tell

0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:25.719
<v Speaker 2>us about what the league said.

0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:27.280
<v Speaker 4>That's probably my biggest surprise on the whole thing.

0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you could always lock him in at ten

0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.240
<v Speaker 5>or twelve something like that, and he's good, and then

0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 5>it doesn't happen in the playoffs, and you know, you

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:38.439
<v Speaker 5>can debate was their defense as Jerry Jones, you know, but.

0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 4>He just hadn't done it.

0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:41.160
<v Speaker 5>You've been around that long and haven't made a bigger

0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 5>dent in the playoffs. I think a certain the patience

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 5>kind of runs out on you. And I think that's

0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.320
<v Speaker 5>happened with some with with Justin Herbert over a much

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 5>shorter period of time, and they're up big on Jackson,

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:52.439
<v Speaker 5>phony blows, they blow the game. So I was a

0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:54.560
<v Speaker 5>little bit surprised that he enched up. Now when you

0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:56.280
<v Speaker 5>really look at how he played last year, a lot

0:09:56.360 --> 0:09:57.520
<v Speaker 5>of great players around.

0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:00.640
<v Speaker 4>Him and hold him back. I had to hold him

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 4>back in this thing. Yeah, he really shot up, Mike.

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:05.640
<v Speaker 6>It's funny. We just had our good friend Matt Mayoko

0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:07.440
<v Speaker 6>on the show just the other week and we were

0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:10.000
<v Speaker 6>talking about these rankings and he said, Dak Prescott might

0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 6>be the most overrated and the most underrated quarterback in

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 6>the NFL. Do you think that shit's kind of due

0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:17.200
<v Speaker 6>to the cowboy fatigue we hear so much about each

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:17.719
<v Speaker 6>and every day.

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:18.120
<v Speaker 1>I do.

0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:19.640
<v Speaker 4>I think that's some of it. I do.

0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:22.360
<v Speaker 5>And then this the gap between you know, when he's

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:25.960
<v Speaker 5>healthy as regular season production is really good and they

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.080
<v Speaker 5>haven't done anything in the playoffs, and you know, last year,

0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:29.600
<v Speaker 5>I'm not going to blame him for that because their

0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.680
<v Speaker 5>defense was horrible, but there's always something right. And I

0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 5>think over a long enough period of time, you would

0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:38.000
<v Speaker 5>expect there to be some better team results.

0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:41.640
<v Speaker 2>There's some interesting a lot of local. All politics is local,

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:43.640
<v Speaker 2>and all quarterbacks are local. Jared Goff, he grew up

0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:45.520
<v Speaker 2>in Marine County. I went to Marine Catholic High School

0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.600
<v Speaker 2>in Nevado, California, President Resident, and then of course played

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:51.640
<v Speaker 2>at cal Berkeley. He's still despite the lines taking a

0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:54.600
<v Speaker 2>little bit of a step back since their NFC Championship appearance,

0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 2>still top ten, tied for eighth. What was the feeling

0:10:57.400 --> 0:10:59.680
<v Speaker 2>on Goff because there are some people that would knock

0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:01.839
<v Speaker 2>him Mike, Yeah.

0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:04.240
<v Speaker 5>I think that he's fully recovered though from the Sean

0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 5>McVay rejection, right, I mean, I think that hurt him

0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:09.000
<v Speaker 5>and he was a little bit of a low there,

0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.520
<v Speaker 5>the fact that he you know, there's nothing he does

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:13.680
<v Speaker 5>with us like magic with his legs or you know,

0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 5>he really does need it needed to be pretty good

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:17.680
<v Speaker 5>around him. But when it is good around him, he

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 5>is really really good and great decision maker with the football.

0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:24.080
<v Speaker 5>I talk to people that you know, had had seen

0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:27.160
<v Speaker 5>him in person and came away more impressed because you

0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 5>can kind of see running of the whole operation. That's

0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:32.880
<v Speaker 5>really what people see of Dak Prescott. The guy runs

0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 5>the whole thing, and it's hard to find. So many

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:40.080
<v Speaker 5>of these quarterbacks are you know, you can debate that

0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:43.079
<v Speaker 5>they're a product of the system or somebody propping them up,

0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:45.320
<v Speaker 5>but there are guys doing all this stuff at the

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:48.560
<v Speaker 5>line of scrimmage. And if you're super talented doing that,

0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 5>you're Stafford and you're in the top tier. But I

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.079
<v Speaker 5>think a couple of these guys, like Goff and even

0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:55.520
<v Speaker 5>Prescott are benefiting from the fact that that's not really

0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 5>the trend in the league with guys coming out of college,

0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:02.040
<v Speaker 5>and so there's an appreciateiation for the guy who is

0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:05.080
<v Speaker 5>up the line of scrimmage and really in charge of

0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 5>the thing, as opposed to being more of a product

0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:07.640
<v Speaker 5>of it.

0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:10.880
<v Speaker 6>Mike, last question for me circling back to the forty

0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:14.720
<v Speaker 6>nine Ers offense and brock Purty last year. Obviously, injuries

0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 6>were a big concern. They've got George Kittle recovering from

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:20.000
<v Speaker 6>an achilles injury. Ricky Piersol is now out for the

0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 6>season with the PCL surgery. Mike Evans, Dejon Struben, Christian

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:26.440
<v Speaker 6>Christian kirk are Deale with minor injuries in camp right now.

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:28.760
<v Speaker 6>They just brought back Deebo Samuel. So that's a long

0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 6>way of me asking you where do you think the

0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:32.480
<v Speaker 6>forty nine Ers offense is going to be this year?

0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.679
<v Speaker 6>Where brock Purty in the addition of Mike Evans.

0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:35.920
<v Speaker 4>I'm worried now.

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:39.679
<v Speaker 5>A lot of people really applauded that move to get him,

0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:41.240
<v Speaker 5>but he missed a bunch of the year last year.

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 5>I think the the odds are the Bucks you know,

0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.520
<v Speaker 5>got out. Probably they didn't get out a year too late, right,

0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:48.760
<v Speaker 5>They probably.

0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:51.920
<v Speaker 4>Got out on time. And so, uh, you know, I.

0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.679
<v Speaker 5>Was already worried about Christian McCaffrey because the other two

0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.000
<v Speaker 5>times he led the league in touches, he had injuries

0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.760
<v Speaker 5>the next year. So now he's obviously older than he

0:12:59.880 --> 0:13:02.400
<v Speaker 5>was then, And you know, are we taking him for

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.720
<v Speaker 5>granted right where all the focuses on the wide receivers.

0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:08.079
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, Kittle coming off with the injury. Evans, who

0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:10.120
<v Speaker 5>probably even if he isn't missing time right now, I

0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:11.800
<v Speaker 5>would tell you he's going to miss games this year.

0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:17.560
<v Speaker 5>Pearceall now is out. I'm definitely worried, and I'm sure

0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 5>forty Niner fans are too.

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, good stuff, Mike. And the last one for me

0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:23.079
<v Speaker 2>is non Niners. It's Jalen Hurts. This guy won a

0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:26.839
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl, Super Bowl MVP. I'm correct, isn't he superl Yeah, oh.

0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he's played great in Super Bowls.

0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Guy has declined eight spots, like plummeting from number nine

0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:37.000
<v Speaker 2>down to number seventeen. Man talk about the quote. The

0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:38.840
<v Speaker 2>pull quote you guys have is his best players are

0:13:38.880 --> 0:13:41.280
<v Speaker 2>off schedule. This is a defensive coach. It will become

0:13:41.400 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 2>less sustainable as he gets older. So the knock is

0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:48.320
<v Speaker 2>that he's just a he's an off schedule guy who

0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:49.840
<v Speaker 2>as aged.

0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:53.920
<v Speaker 4>Who has had those monster super Bowls. You can't take

0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:54.920
<v Speaker 4>it away away from it.

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 5>But you don't feel like that's what got him there,

0:13:56.920 --> 0:14:00.880
<v Speaker 5>right the great offensive line, what do they had Sae

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:02.920
<v Speaker 5>Kwon bark He or not, you know, a really good

0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 5>defense This last year. People just feel like, if you

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 5>can make him throw the ball a lot, he can't

0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:13.800
<v Speaker 5>execute all of the throws the rock Perdy can even

0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 5>in an offense just boom boom, boom, boom boom. It's

0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:18.880
<v Speaker 5>got to be you know, the slant or the go ball.

0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:21.040
<v Speaker 5>And he was able to hit those in the Super

0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.160
<v Speaker 5>Bowl and make huge plays over the top of the

0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.480
<v Speaker 5>heads of the Chiefs. But do you feel like he's

0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:29.880
<v Speaker 5>a consistent driver of your offense, especially if it were

0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:31.760
<v Speaker 5>to fall off around him, which it has a little bit.

0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:34.320
<v Speaker 5>Nobody really thinks that, And.

0:14:35.760 --> 0:14:36.120
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:38.520
<v Speaker 5>Do you think that they're eager to sign him to

0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:40.720
<v Speaker 5>a raise with a big extension.

0:14:41.000 --> 0:14:42.160
<v Speaker 3>Would you beat? Yeah?

0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, interesting texts, interesting texts. We'll see what happens in

0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:47.080
<v Speaker 2>Philly for sure. Well, listen, there's so much to go through.

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 2>We didn't even get to number thirty five, shdur Sanders.

0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:50.080
<v Speaker 3>You didn't get to him.

0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:51.600
<v Speaker 6>Where's my guy Fernando on that list?

<v Speaker 2>not a ton of love. Yeah.

0:15:20.600 --> 0:15:22.560
<v Speaker 6>No, his game's kind of dropped off a little bit,

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:23.760
<v Speaker 6>and they've been losing some pieces.

0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:25.840
<v Speaker 2>And the guy I wanted to get into my top

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:27.560

<v Speaker 3>And that's Baker Mayfield. Baker.

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:32.400

0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:33.920
<v Speaker 2>streakiest player in the league.

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.160

0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 6>But yeah, there are times where a Baker does not

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:39.280
<v Speaker 6>look like a top ten quarterback.

0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:44.760
