4
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 1: give for him? I don't know what would you give

5
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: for Yeah, look, Barth will tell you I have recency bias.

Speaker 1: I want to figure out how they how they break up.

8
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: You know, you ruined my train of thought there, Paul.

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,319
Speaker 1: I think my line was I was like, oh, what's

10
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: the book about? And I was like Africa, And I'm like,

11
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: it's very broad generally Africa. You went to Africa for

12
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: two weeks, and so we decided he knew enough to

13
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: write a book. Look look at for enough. Paul the Serengetti,

Speaker 1: and we've got a busy show in a full studio.

22
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: It's Deuce, It's to Marrow, It's Alex, It's Alex, it's Fred,

23
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: It's Matt. No, Paul. Paul was so upset with the

24
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: Jujus Miss Schuster signing and the release of Jacobe Myers

25
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: he said, I'm not coming in anymore protea. So who's

26
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: going to play Paul today? Well, I think you guys

27
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: are because Evan's sitting in his seat with a diapepsi

28
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: and you ordered a small pepperoni, So Philly Paul is

29
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: well represented. It's it's when I say large shoes, I mean,

30
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: I'm only kidding. That's good though, He'll only have to

31
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: listen to the first part of the show to know

32
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: when we were making fun of him. Is that him?

33
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: So anyway, so we've got a lot to talk about, um,

34
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: the release of Jacobe Myers, the signing of Juju Smith Schuster, uh,

35
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: stuff going around the league with uh, you know, Aaron

36
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: Rodgers still not you know, officially signed with the Jets.

37
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: Yet all of that, Um, we signed a running back

38
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: from Jacksonville, um who um looks to be a pretty

39
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: good player. Yeah, bowling ball. Yeah, And a lot of

40
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 1: people are assuming that, you know, means the end of

41
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: the Damien Harris era. Uh so we'll talk about all

42
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: of it. Um, So anyone want to just kick yea,

43
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: let's talk say that Smith schustertime. I don't want to

44
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: write JSS. I'm on JSSA. I can't write Smith. Does

45
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: he like to be called JSS? Are you making that up?

46
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm assuming he doesn't like to be

47
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: called TikTok. Yeah. So so okay, go ahead. I'm just

48
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: gonna say I like the signing. I like them. I

49
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: mean I'm not. I wasn't world's familiar with Juju Smith

50
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: Schuster other than name. Yesterday just jumped in started watching them.

51
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: I mean, look, bottom line, he's better than Jacoby Myers.

52
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: He's better than him. I mean, he's just he's a

53
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: talented receiver. He is a receiver. I love Jacoby and

54
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: it's hard for me to, you know, say this's a receiver.

55
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: Come on, but he was a quarterback and there's just

56
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: something about him that was always there's something about him

57
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: that has just never to me looked like a full NFL.

58
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't like him being the most reliable receiver.

59
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 1: He was a reliable absolutely, But I just I look

60
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: at you. This is a this is a real deal

61
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: wide receiver, who can get catches out, you know, yards

62
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: after the catch, who has played in big games, who

63
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: has had I mean, you'll line up their production. It's

64
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: it's way more. Look, I'm not gonna I have concerns

65
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: about him. I'm not gonna say that, oh, this is

66
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: a dream signing. They need to do more. But I

67
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 1: think a one for one swap in terms of they're

68
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: the same age, it's a good contract. He has a

69
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: higher ceiling than Jacoby does. I think you factor all

70
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: those things. I think they upgraded their opense with this move.

71
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: A lot. Of course, everything you're saying true about the

72
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: same age, similar contract, all that stuff. But I think

73
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: the zeitgeist out there is that it's a it's a

74
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: very lateral move. And if you're gonna do that, why

75
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: not keep the guy who knows the system, knows Matt

76
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: Jones and you know, and reward your own guy that

77
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: you brought up as an undrafted move, what you know,

78
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: and you know, reward the guy that you brought in

79
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 1: as araft of free agent. You know, they talk about

80
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: the Patriots can't develop wide receivers. They did and then

81
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: they get rid of them. Yeah, but I still think

82
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: that this is this is a move they had to make.

83
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: And and I'm gonna be honest, like that's not like, oh,

84
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: this is the perfect guy. Like I've been saying all offseason,

85
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: I want somebody who's quick on the inside. I don't

86
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: really see Juju Smith Schuster is a quick guy. Um,

87
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: but I think he can do what they need. And

88
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: you know, you look at his high end production. Now.

89
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: I know he hasn't gotten back to there, but he

90
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: certainly had a productive year last year with Patrick Mahomes.

91
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: And I know we'll talk plenty about like, well, what's

92
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: he gonna do with mac if this is what he

93
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: did with Patrick Mahomes. But I just look at it

94
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: when you've just watched this guy play, he's he's a

95
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: better football player than Jacobe was. And and I think

96
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: ultimately that's the move they had to make. I think

97
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: you saw what you were gonna got kind of kind

98
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: of get out of Jacoby so you think it's an upgrade.

99
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: I do. I mean, I have Evan, I know you

100
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: think it's an upgrade without question. Okay, Tamara, she has

101
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: concerns too, Go ahead, go ahead, just say I'm I'm

102
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,799
Speaker 1: in between. Like I Well, one, I really liked Juju

103
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: because he's a former Steeler, obviously, and so I have

104
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: been watching him since he was playing there with Big Ben,

105
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: and I really liked how explosive he was and he

106
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,239
Speaker 1: was a great addition to their offense obviously. But I'm

107
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: still kind of in the notion that, Okay, Jacoby, like

108
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: I really liked him. He was reliable, he was consistent,

109
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: he was max guy, and I think we could have

110
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: kept him and added other things. But I do think

111
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: that the explosiveness that Juju brings is going to be

112
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: electric for this offense. And I think that hopefully, you know,

113
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: Evan said he was pushing for someone who's going to

114
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: get a thousand yards you know, a season. I think

115
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: that Juju could be that guy. But they still need

116
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: to add more. Alex, I feel like I might be

117
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,679
Speaker 1: Paul today, like pessimistic Paul. I am on the record

118
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: on this show saying I don't really want him to

119
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: come here, beyond the optics, beyond the optics of Jude

120
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 1: on last night tweeting at Juju's arch nemesis, beyond the

121
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: optics of Jacoby tweeting like one of the classiest players,

122
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: Jacoby tweeting he's very clearly salty. Beyond it getting leaked

123
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 1: at Like the money was so weird when it got

124
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: leaked because it made it seem like it was the

125
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: exact same contract as Jacoby too. That's like just strange.

126
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: I think Jacoby got more guaranteed according to but then

127
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: now they're saying Jacoby's deal is really kind of a

128
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: one out. I don't know. I just feel like I

129
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: don't love like I feel like we did the same

130
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: thing with Aguil or like give a guy money after

131
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: his prove it deal. Yeah, and I don't love bringing

132
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: in another player, that was for sure, But it's still

133
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: just like we're in the To me, we're in the

134
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: same situation we were in. We're bringing now someone in who,

135
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: like I don't know Juju. I don't want to, like

136
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: on a personal level to say anything about like his

137
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: character or him being a distraction. But I've worked with

138
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: Kendrick Bourne and if Kendrick was an issue last year. Why,

139
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 1: I just I don't get it. I think it's all reasonable,

140
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: and I mean, and another thing just to put before.

141
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure Evan jumps in. I just like the ball

142
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: security I think is a little bit of an issue

143
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: with him, and you talk about Jacoby's reliability, just you know,

144
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: a point maybe in Jacoby's favor as far as the

145
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: argument goes, three fumbles you know last year, it's just

146
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean, that's something that you know, you have to

147
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: be aware of. I think, is you're gonna have drops,

148
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: is you're gonna have ball security issues, that's a concern.

149
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: And we've been around so long jay career. Jacoby's got

150
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: great hands, so obviously he's not somebody that drops a

151
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: lot of passes. But three drops one hundred targets is

152
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: not exactly dropping the ball a lot then. I mean

153
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: something we also didn't talk about time last year where

154
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: mondre Stevenson lost the ball a lot more than like

155
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: we want. I mean, the whole team lost the ball

156
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 1: more than they traditionally do. So I think that as

157
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: a whole everybody needs to tighten that up. Yeah, I

158
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: think you just try to take it, take it all

159
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: in you know, I mean it's not easy. We all

160
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: love Jacoby and I mean it hurts when you see

161
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: him when he when he tweets cold World. I mean,

162
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: you know you like the guy. You like the guy personally.

163
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: You don't like the fact that that the team is

164
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: a cold world. Of course it is, but you know,

165
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't make it right. It doesn't make you I

166
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: mean you have to enjoy it and you have to

167
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: be like, oh whatever, goodbye Jacoby Myers. But well, do

168
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: you hear Devin what he said, um when they interviewed

169
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: him on I think it was then shocked. Yeah, yeah,

170
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: he was shocked. You know he said, as far as

171
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: I know, he wanted to be here, he wanted to stay. Yeah,

172
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: you know, this isn't the boy scouts. I'm just sicking,

173
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: Like I hear it all the time about Jacoby. Oh

174
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: he's so reliable, he was such a great teammate. Does

175
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: that win you football games? Does being a reliable great

176
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: teammate win you football games? When? When when was being

177
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: reliable and a good teammate not good? It's not that

178
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: it's not good, it's just what does he do on

179
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: the field? Like what what? Like? What's he put on tape,

180
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: Like if you watched you, if you watch Juju and

181
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 1: you watched Jacobe and you think that they're comparable players,

182
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: then you're just not watching the same games that I am. No,

183
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 1: But I do think it's not just about what is

184
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: on the tape. It's about what kind of fit is

185
00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: this person in our lock I mean, I do think

186
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: that the is our issues when you're trying to build

187
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: a team. It's not just hey, this guy fits in

188
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: perfectly as far as what our playbook is, you know

189
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: it does there has to be a locker room fit.

190
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: And think so too. I mean, I'm not going to

191
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 1: say that that is the biggest thing. And certainly, you know,

192
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: looking at Juju Smith Schuster's body type and skill set

193
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 1: and all those things that when I look at those

194
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: two players, I say, this is more of the direction

195
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: they needed to go. I don't think it's a slam dunk.

196
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: I still think they need a complimentary, you know, piece

197
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: on the outside and another maybe tight end to you know,

198
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: work in so that they have other targets. But I

199
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: like the move. I don't like a lot of the

200
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: moves they've made, but I like this. I'm not you know,

201
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: you know, ready to hand in my homwork card yet.

202
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: So you know, Like, so I'm fine with Smith Schuster,

203
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: you know, but I like Myers and I think I

204
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: think he's getting a short you know, he's getting a

205
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: little disrespect here, I think from a lot of Patriots

206
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: fans for what he You know, again, I said this

207
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, we talk about Matt Jones. Well, yeah, it

208
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 1: was a bad situation with Matt Patricia and all. But

209
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: but he's got to be a leader. He's got to

210
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: rise above it and he's got to figure out a

211
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,839
Speaker 1: way to produce. You know. Yeah, well that's exactly what

212
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: Myers did. That's exactly what he did. I will say

213
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: for one point that we did talk about on Tuesday

214
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: was um myers speed and like his yards after catch.

215
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: I do think when you do compare those two, Jujus

216
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: does bring you're like the same. You can't be honest

217
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: and not agree with that. Yeah, you can't be honest.

218
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,719
Speaker 1: Did not agree with if you if you said I

219
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: would describe Juju as from a skill set standpoint, he's

220
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: Jacobe Myers with the ability to run with the football.

221
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 1: There you go. I don't know why that would like

222
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: the same slot receiver but one is like a better

223
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: route runner and the other is Juju. I just I

224
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: just don't know about that. Like I go watch Juju

225
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 1: run whip routes against guys yesterday when I'm watch in

226
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: his film and he's shaking guys out of his shoes

227
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: just like Jacoby would, and then he's running with the

228
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: football fifteen yards down the sideline after the fact, and

229
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: they just don't have that player in Jacoby Myers, and

230
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 1: I just I go back to the same thing. I

231
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: just don't know what, Like what what do you guys want?

232
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: Like what is what does the fan base want? A plan?

233
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: Because honestly, just the plan have we had any sense

234
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 1: Brady has left? I don't know. I'm going to be pessimistic, Alex,

235
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 1: all right, that's I just but like I'm sorry, Like

236
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: I agree. I understand where you're coming from totally, I

237
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: really do. They're not going to tell you the plan, okay,

238
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: so that I don't need to know the plan. I

239
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: just need to see that it's happening and in progress

240
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: and pay let's patch. Ju is the number two receiver,

241
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: and I still think we're in the same place we

242
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: were before though everyone that, okay, does everyone agree that, okay,

243
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: Shuster is here, but you need more yes, yeah, yeah,

244
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: And do we all agree that the More has to

245
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,719
Speaker 1: be a wide receiver or would we be okay with

246
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 1: the More being a really good tight end. I was

247
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 1: interested in the report of they were talking reportedly talking

248
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: to Obi j and Juju. I thought that was interesting

249
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 1: and Jerry Judy Yeah, and it's like, yeah, I'm like,

250
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: what are the thoughts if it was Obj Andrew Juty.

251
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: So they want Obj, I'm just gonna put it out there.

252
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: They want Odell. They've wanted O'Dell for a couple of

253
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: years now. I think the biggest issue that they have

254
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,839
Speaker 1: with Odell is that O'Dell wants to play with a

255
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: good quarterback. Odell wants to play with somebody that's an

256
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: established quarterback that can go out there and they can

257
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: say we're super Bowl contenders. You know, Dallas as a

258
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: team that's hot on Odell right now as well. I

259
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: think he's always had a liking to maybe playing in

260
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: Buffalo or Kansas City as well. You know, going to

261
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 1: places where I can say I have an MVP caliber

262
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: quarterback is important to him. But the Patriots were in

263
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: on him last year at when he got released by Cleveland.

264
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: They went to his workout this year. They've been in

265
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: on him the entire time this year, so they would

266
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: love to have him. I just think that are they

267
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: going to overpay to get over the fact that you're

268
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: gonna have to come here and prove it with mac

269
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: Jones versus going someplace where it's kind of a ready

270
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: made situation. I will say, I'm wondering if they'll be

271
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: able to get away with not paying him as much

272
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,599
Speaker 1: at least this first year, until you make sure that

273
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: he's ready to go. Because obviously they did go watch

274
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: him work out in Arizona, but like you haven't seen him.

275
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: There's so many questions. Yeah, there's so many questions, like sure,

276
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: we saw that he could run and you know all

277
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,319
Speaker 1: those things, but it's difference between doing that workout and

278
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: actually being in football shape and playing in a game.

279
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: So I'm wondering if maybe they can, like first year,

280
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: give him a certain amount of money and then if

281
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: you know, obviously if he produces, then give him more. Yeah,

282
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,719
Speaker 1: I mean, ob j would you talk about complimentary? He

283
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,599
Speaker 1: can play any wide receiver position, um, you know, so

284
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: he could be that outside guy. He could actually I've

285
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: seen him line up in the slot and be successful. Um,

286
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: you know he's he can do it all. Um, where

287
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: is he in his career? That's a question, it's a question.

288
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: I mean he's still what thirty. I mean, he's not.

289
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: You know, it's not like, hey, we're talking about thirty

290
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: six year old O B J and trying to squeeze

291
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 1: it out. I mean, I think you put those two

292
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: guys together, you're really talking and I and I don't

293
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: think you can rule out you know, it's it's just

294
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: it makes DeVante Parker more useful. It maybe opens things

295
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:00,599
Speaker 1: up for Kendrick Bourne to do some up. You know,

296
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: you just have more options. I mean, I said to Evan,

297
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: and we've had plenty of conversations about Quentin Johnson. You know,

298
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: I'm not the biggest fan of him, but I at

299
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 1: least look now and say, if you put him with

300
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: Juju in this group, like you kind of got maybe

301
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: the makings of something there. Yeah, it's a ways to go.

302
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: And I think we're just starting to see them. They're

303
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: starting to make some moves. I mean obviously they you know,

304
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: a couple other ones, Mac Wilson rolling in, I mean

305
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: those you know, resigning taking care of your own guys.

306
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: I gotta do that too. You gotta do it. And

307
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: I mean to Alex's point of like, you know, what's

308
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: the plan? You know, I don't love the fact that

309
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys are one year deals, and

310
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: you know, you're just like, all right, we're gonna just

311
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: keep kicking the can down the road with guys like

312
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: McMillan and Wilson. And you know, of course a segment

313
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: of the fan base is gonna get intrigued with all right,

314
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: are they gonna go more mobile? You know, last year

315
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: when you had those two guys, everyone thought these grand changes,

316
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: and now I don't know if anyone's really expecting that there.

317
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: You know. So I think that they're doing a pretty

318
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: good job so far, but they still need that big piece.

319
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: I'm not as depressed as I was Tuesday when I

320
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: felt like the world was falling apart. But I gotta

321
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: say too, I really like that they brought you Brull

322
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: Peppers back. He's I know, he's a personal favorite of mine,

323
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: but I just like, how so the running back what's

324
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: his name for, James, James, James Robinson. They paid him

325
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: some money two for eight I think, yes, it's not

326
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: a real Yeah, I'm sure. So his base values two

327
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: for four, Yeah, okay, I think I think that's incentives.

328
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: I think that's another one kind of like OBJ where

329
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: you're kind of just hoping he gets back to prime form.

330
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: Like James Robinson when he came into the league, he

331
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: had over a thousand yards rushing as a rookie. I

332
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: think the Jackson is so dirty too in a way

333
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: to be fair, To be fair, I mean, he was

334
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: there when a certain coach was there so exactly, so

335
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, you want to you want to

336
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: charge on the table. It's like he tore his achilles.

337
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: He had that person as a coach. Then he was

338
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: dealing with some neat issues again. So I'm hoping that,

339
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: you know, his potential turns into production. And you know,

340
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: like Patriots fans get all riled up because every time

341
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: they make a signing like him, Oh, you know, the

342
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: expectation is like the Patriots think he's gonna make it

343
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: be a starter. That's not always the case. We're going

344
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: to have to have ninety guys camp. Half of them

345
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: aren't even going to make the team about you know,

346
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: so this happens every year with every team where you're

347
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 1: filling out that camp roster with guys who you take

348
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: a shot on the guy maybe he is back and

349
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: can help. Yeah, you know, um, you know, and Ramandra

350
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: can't like go every single down like you want someone

351
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: who can compliment him. It's like, we're not asking James

352
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: Robinson to come out here and be the next you know,

353
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott and his prime. We're not expecting that. Let

354
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: him battle it out with Time Montgomery, you know, and

355
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: strong and Harris are strong and Kevin Harris, what are

356
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: they going to look like when they come back in

357
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: year two? I mean either one of them set the

358
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: world on fire last year, So you need some of

359
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: that depth. Always say they overstocked the running back position.

360
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna get hurt too, you know what's gonna happen. Yeah,

361
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: So like every every signing that you see during the

362
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: offseason doesn't mean the Patriots expect this person to be

363
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: a starter. A lot of it is let's see what

364
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: you're doing camp. Yeah, you know, I think that's what's

365
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: hard to Fred is that, like, and I get everybody's

366
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: like anxious about wanting to get the star players and

367
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: when they sign these kind of no name guys. It's

368
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: frustrating to people, but I mean, I'm gonna, I'm gonna,

369
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tee Evan up because I think that it's

370
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: a good like you hit on gems that way, Like

371
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: you have to kind of do that, Like nobody care

372
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: when you brought rob Nikovich in as a long snapper.

373
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 1: But I'm not saying that you can build an entire

374
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: team that way, but you have to take those kind

375
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: of chances on guys like Robinson who's coming off and

376
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: achilles injury and didn't really have great production last year.

377
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: And you know, Evan, I'll let you go on on

378
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: the on the tackle that they got from the Bronchos

379
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: who was originally here, so they liked them, they got

380
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: rid of them, um, you know, early before training camp.

381
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: But you know this, it's guys like that. I know

382
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: it's not sexy. I know it makes people mad. You

383
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: haven't heard of the guy, but you know a guy

384
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: who has some potential and maybe maybe you find a

385
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: gem and all of a sudden, you're your left tackle

386
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: is on a manageable two year deal and now you're set.

387
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,959
Speaker 1: So I just I think you can't over criticize them

388
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: about some of those moves. I think you have to

389
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: make those kind of moves absolutely. I always have and

390
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: they always will. I feel like I'm in such a

391
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: minority with those two though. With James Robinson and I

392
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 1: love Juju. I love that signing. I'll admit on bias.

393
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 1: I saw him play live at US See a bunch

394
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: of times when I was out in LA and I

395
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: really love everything about his game. I thought he was

396
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: a fit for here back in the twenty seventeen draft,

397
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 1: and they passed on him, and I was disappointed. I

398
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: don't really like the James Robinson signing. I'm not gonna

399
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 1: lie I. Coming off Achilles injuries running backs, the track

400
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: record there is very, very poor of guys actually being

401
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: able to at that position, in particular being able to

402
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: bounce back from that injury. And I think that all

403
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: the opportunity in the world at that position behind Remondrate

404
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: should go to Pierre Strong. Every single snap in camp,

405
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 1: every single touch that Remondra doesn't get, I want to

406
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 1: see Pierre Strong with the football because he's somebody that

407
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 1: brings legitimate home run speed, like a guy that can

408
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: take a run and go forty five fifty yards with

409
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: it to the house like we saw in Arizona for example,

410
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: when he went down the sideline and nearly housed it.

411
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: That's a guy that has something that they don't have,

412
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 1: which is real speed. Well, you know, you know OTAs,

413
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: you're going to start shortly and then you're going to

414
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: get into the you know, the May camps and everything

415
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: like that, and they'll probably they'll see Robinson, see where

416
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: he's at, and he may not even make it to Canada.

417
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: He may not, or oh he's back, and then all

418
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: of a sudden there's legitimate competition, and you have to

419
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: have competition on you within your team, you know, to

420
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: push guys. What I worry about is that I agree

421
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: with you one hundred percent, and it's a it's a

422
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: good piece to add for that purpose. But I think

423
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: sometimes they lean on steady reliability, especially at that position

424
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: where I think that they need to get explosive guys.

425
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: They need to get dynamic players that can make big plays.

426
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: And yeah, maybe Pierre Strong isn't as polished or isn't

427
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: as experienced that as a guy like James Robinson might

428
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: make some more mistakes that James Robinson might not make.

429
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: But for every mistake if he breaks one, you know,

430
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 1: that's something that they need on this office. I think

431
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: what they really need, whether it's Pierre Strong or Time

432
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: Montgomery or whoever, they need that reliable out of the

433
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: backfield pass catch. Yeah, that's always been part of the

434
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: Patriots offense. And you know we talk about Bill O'Brien, Um,

435
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: that's always been part of you know what he's done.

436
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: So whoever that becomes, they need that person. I just,

437
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I agree with everything you said, and I

438
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: just I still wonder if it if it is a

439
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: priority for them, like you know, I just I don't know.

440
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: I'm open minded about it because they drafted two guys

441
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: last year, neither one of them really. I mean, I

442
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: know Pierre Strong can catch a little bit, but he's

443
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: not that guy. Um. You know, they've had JJ Taylor

444
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 1: kind of kicking around. I don't know what they feel

445
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: about him. They don't trust him in pass protection yet.

446
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he's been practice squad guy for three years.

447
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 1: I'm just curious, Like because again this Robinson signing, Like, yeah,

448
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,119
Speaker 1: he's got a little bit of versatility to him, but

449
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: he's not that receiving back either. So I don't know,

450
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: it's just something that's on my radar. Are they gonna

451
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: are they gonna make an effort again? I mean, we're

452
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: watching these guys in the draft too, that could potentially

453
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 1: be that. Look how many times they threw to Ramondre

454
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: Stevenson last year, So that's and I mean he was

455
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: the only he was the last guy standing. It's a

456
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 1: great point, and that's they did throw to the back,

457
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: and that's and that's what I wonder if this evolution

458
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: is like they got to a point where they said, look,

459
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: everybody knows, when Leire Blunt's out there, we're gonna run it,

460
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: and when James White's out there, we're gonna pass it.

461
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,199
Speaker 1: And that's what you know, that's kind of what they

462
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 1: were in those middle years. Maybe they said, look, we've

463
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: just got to get a little bit more balanced with

464
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: some of these guys. And I think that's what you

465
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: see in Ramandre, who you know, was described to me.

466
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: I think of the comment a couple of years as

467
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: a third down back and I'm like, really, um, but

468
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: you know Strong a little bit, this guy Robinson a

469
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 1: little bit. They can all catch a little bit. Um.

470
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 1: So I don't know, we'll see, but I think I

471
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: also look at the other tight end position with John Hugone.

472
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: You know, that seems like there's a spot there. What's

473
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: that going to be? Is that going to be one

474
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 1: of the rookies that we love or you know, I

475
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: know they saw GHISICKI was apparently at Toby Keats or

476
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: Southern last night. I don't know if that's true or not. Really.

477
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: Somebody said I just I saw him at You know,

478
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: there are a couple of people saying that he started

479
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: following the Patriots a Logan Airport type situation. That possibly

480
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 1: could be. But the other part of it was that

481
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: he's fall he started following the Patriots and mac and

482
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: also so so there's a little bit of smoke there.

483
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 1: So you know, I don't, I don't, I don't hate

484
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: it as like. But that's another thing I wonder is that,

485
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 1: you know, Bill O'Brien had Aaron Hernandez and I mean really,

486
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: you know, looked at that f tight end position as

487
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: a weapon and as a piece that you know, to

488
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: move around and take advantage of. I'll say weapon. I

489
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: just sorry, playmaker, playmakers, let's say weapons. Um. So that's

490
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: another place I wonder is Bill O'Brien, you know, gonna

491
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: push for let's get one of those kind of move

492
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: tight ends, somebody that we don't really care if he

493
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: can block, but can be a mismatch in one way

494
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: or another. Yeah, I think they're hoping that might be

495
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 1: due to Honestly, I guess a guy that's underneath the defense,

496
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: I can catch and run, I can move around a

497
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: little bit. I think that he's sort of that a

498
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 1: little bit of a new age in that position where

499
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: he's more of like a power slot receiver instead of

500
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: a true tight end. Like you're not gonna put t

501
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: next to his name, but he can sort of do

502
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: similar things like Jordan Humphrey. Right, Yeah, he's no good way.

503
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask Evan I since he didn't really

504
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 1: he wasn't really fond of the James Robinson picked because

505
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: he's not really like bringing. I guess the speed that

506
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 1: he's looking for for the offense. Would you brother kept

507
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: Damien or would you have just moved on altogether? No?

508
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: I mean I think that, Like we talk about lateral moves, like,

509
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 1: I think that's a lateral move, right as a guy,

510
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: one guy that has an injury history versus another guy

511
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,239
Speaker 1: that gets banged up all the time, and they run

512
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,400
Speaker 1: a similar style. I think that Robinson has a little

513
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 1: bit more upside in the passing game than what Damien

514
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 1: brought to the table. But no, I don't mind not

515
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: keeping Damien and going with James Robinson. And I think

516
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: that when the contracts come out, Damian eventually signs, he's

517
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 1: going to get more money guaranteed to him up front

518
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: in the open market than somebody like James Robinson. But

519
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: it's more about I would say that they have this tendency,

520
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 1: especially at the running back position, to hold back younger

521
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: players at that spot, and you have to be really special,

522
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 1: like you know, Ramondre even in his rookie season, he

523
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: had some opportunity, but they didn't really give it to

524
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: him until his second year. And we've seen so many

525
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,199
Speaker 1: guys just get red shirted that rookie year. And then

526
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 1: there's other teams. And I'm not saying that it's always

527
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 1: the Patriots always do everything wrong, but other teams like

528
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, for example, have a rookie running back playing

529
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl making plays for them, and it's

530
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,719
Speaker 1: at some point in time. Seventh yeah, out of Rutgers,

531
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: which you know, makes too much sense, right, So all

532
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 1: those combinations of things, Eventually you gotta you gotta give

533
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: some of the younger guys a chance at that position.

534
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: And I feel like sometimes they just they just retread

535
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 1: these veteran players that all right, he's not gonna fumble,

536
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: he's not gonna blow and the Simon and Blitz pick up,

537
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: he's gonna know where he's supposed to go when he

538
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,239
Speaker 1: gets the football, and like all that. It's that's all

539
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: well and good, But does he make a difference, you know,

540
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: is he a playmaker with the football? And I think

541
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: there's too maybe that small risk of injury, like for example,

542
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: what happened with Etn in Jacksonville. It's like that rookie that, yeah,

543
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: you are looking forward to him playing like he barely

544
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 1: lasted a month. And so it's I think it's a

545
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: little bit of like you want them to get experienced,

546
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: but then you also are like you don't want them

547
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 1: to like get an acl tear the start of their

548
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: rookie season, and then you're kind of just always handle

549
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: that position with kid gloves. I don't know what it

550
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: is that they really feel so strongly that rookies cannot

551
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: contribute because it's early down backs like Damien and it's

552
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: pass catching backs like James White, like they do it

553
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: with all of them. Yeah, And I just don't know

554
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: why that is. It seems so simple to me, especially

555
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 1: if you're gonna make them a runner, not a pass catcher,

556
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: not a guy that's going to have to block and

557
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: things like that, like just hit the whole. Like, I

558
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 1: don't know why that's so complex to learn and to

559
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,239
Speaker 1: pick up. I just, I mean, I think everything you're

560
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: saying true. I just I also have always just believed

561
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: that they overstocked that position with the anticipation that we're

562
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: going to lose one to two of these guys at

563
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 1: any given week, and they do. And let's just get

564
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 1: to get into preseason. Let's get a bunch of them

565
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: and you know, we'll let the competition play out. And yes,

566
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: in a perfect world, Pierre Strong, Kevin Harris, Romander Stevenson,

567
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: that's your rotation. Maybe time Montgomery's your other back. But

568
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: you know, Romandre gets hurt week two in preseason and

569
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: you're like, oh god, you know. So I just think

570
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: that position specifically is one to you can never have

571
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: too much depth. YEA, this goes back to when quarteraill

572
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 1: Patters and had to play running, yeah, you know, or

573
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: Stephen Jackson. I mean even this year, you know, even

574
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: this year with when Damian got hurt and you know

575
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: in time Montgomery got hurt and you're all of a

576
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: sudden having to thrust those two guys. You know, it's

577
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: and even then to your point, like they were forced

578
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: to do it, and it's you know, it still didn't

579
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: really pop. So yeah, those guys will be fun to watch.

580
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: It's you need a full stable because you're going to

581
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: end up using him. It always happens that way. Um,

582
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 1: other stuff around. I mean, we got to talk about

583
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers in that whole situation, that whole situations. Yeah,

584
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: I love it. It's so funny. Into the darkness and

585
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: he came out with the answer I should go And

586
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 1: I have a take on that whole situation, the Aaron

587
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: Modder's situation. It's like when you first start like dating

588
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: someone and you like don't really know what you are,

589
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: but like they're flirting with you. You know they're interested.

590
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: You feel like they're interested. What you're like? What are

591
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: we like? Are we official? Are we like? In the

592
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 1: talking stage that's what this is like, It's like, what

593
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 1: are we like? You like me? This is his ex

594
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: wife holding up the papers and it's just won't she

595
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: won't settle for the Okay, no, but but but it's

596
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: it is he just waiting for them to show that

597
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: they're going to sign all of his requests. The packers

598
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,479
Speaker 1: are the packers want like, you know, I think they

599
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 1: want a first round pack. I think they they made

600
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: they want more. Yeah, you know so well, according to

601
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, the packers are holding it up because for

602
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: the compensation they haven't worked out with the Jets. What

603
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: the Jets are willing to give them for the rights

604
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: to Aaron Rodgers. According to Aaron Rodgers, um which what's

605
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 1: your darkness? Take? I got? Yeah. So he comes out

606
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: of the hut and he says, I want to be

607
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 1: a Jet? Why? Why? Why the Jets? Because he's such

608
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 1: an egomaniac, which like, he couldn't go to a team

609
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 1: that is a good team, that was a good team.

610
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: He needs to be the Savings, like like let's just

611
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 1: say the Patriots were you know. Bill's love of Aaron

612
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: Rodgers manifested into an offer. He couldn't come here because

613
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: he'd be forever you know, uh, yes, Tom Brady, and

614
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,719
Speaker 1: he'd never be as good. But with the Jets, who

615
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: haven't won a Super Bowl since sixty nine and haven't

616
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: even been to one since then, for the team, there's

617
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: only one place to go, you know, and so he's

618
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 1: never gonna He's not gonna be compared to Chad Pennington,

619
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,959
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. So he'll he'll be the guy, um,

620
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 1: you know, the best one since Joe Namath. And so

621
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: that's I'm I'm positive that's part of his thinking. It's like,

622
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 1: you know, that that safety net of for his ego

623
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: plus like yeah, but I mean it's a good team too,

624
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: like you know, I mean there's certainly things that are appealing, definitely,

625
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: but but he doesn't care. He cares about him. He

626
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: cares about him and his own perception. And I'm telling you,

627
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: with the Jets, there was no Tom Brady. There was

628
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: no you know, good quarterback who I'm succeeding and have

629
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: to live up to that. You know, it's my own

630
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 1: thing here, and you know, yeah, I totally believe it.

631
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: Tod to Toad New York Media next year. I can't wait.

632
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: But that part he'll like because Yeah, it's exactly. It

633
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: plays into exactly your point. He loves screwing with the

634
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: media and jousting with them and being smug and all that.

635
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna have any problem there. What

636
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: he cares about is the public perception of himself. Um,

637
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: we've seen that, and you know, the jets of the

638
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: perfect place, because he'll get the money, he'll get the

639
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: notoriety if it works out, and he doesn't have to

640
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: worry about living up to a predecessor a team's success.

641
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 1: Like I said, they haven't been to the Super Bowls

642
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: in sixty nine. Even if it doesn't work out, I

643
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: don't think that anybody's gonna hate on Aaron Rodgers for

644
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: it unless he's playing awful, I guess. But I just

645
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: find it interesting too that he he gave this list

646
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: of players he wants to play with and they already

647
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: have Elijah More, Garrett Wilson, and Garret Wilson is heck

648
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: of a receiver. And now he's like, oh, let's get

649
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: Alan Lazard, let's get Odell. It's like, I mean, I

650
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: get that you want more help, but can you get

651
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: some good? Like, don't make Aaron Rodgers a GM because

652
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, these guys are running the

653
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: same route, Like Garrett Wilson's already a big slot receiver,

654
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 1: and then you signed Alan Lazard, who's also a big

655
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: slot receiver. It's like yeah, and again, according to Rogers,

656
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: it wasn't demands. It was just simply a wish list,

657
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 1: that's all. So he said that yesterday again on McAfee

658
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: show that you know, Diane Rassini cut you know, and

659
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: she didn't say she didn't say it was a demand either,

660
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: you know, So he made it seem like she was

661
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: characterizing it a wrong way when she wasn't. So I mean,

662
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: I think he did kind of you know, agree that

663
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: he did give them some names, lose my number. It

664
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: doesn't make you look any differently at Brady's departure here,

665
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: Like that was what I was just thinking as I'm

666
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: watching Aaron Rodgers being like, Jesus, thank God Brady wasn't

667
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: going on some podcasts just like you know, saying all

668
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: the things he was saying, And you know, I just

669
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: I mean, there's acrimonious divorces, but I felt like, in hindsight,

670
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: the Patriots one was you know, pretty like at least

671
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 1: on the surface. I know everybody wants to dig deep

672
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: and what did they really feel? But you know, at

673
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: least on the surface, it was I do wonder how

674
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: many other teams, you know, were interested in Rogers and

675
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 1: expressed that interest to him or his agent. Well, I'm sure, An,

676
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: I don't know a ton of teams needed. We haven't heard.

677
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: He was asked. He just gave like a very vanilla

678
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: answer on Pat McAfee, what did you say? I think

679
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: he said there were some other teams, but and then

680
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: he just moved on. I'd have to everybody thought the

681
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: line would be long for Brady, and honestly, it wasn't

682
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: that long. Well, and that's why I bring that up,

683
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: you know, And we didn't see anything like this from

684
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: Brady because I don't think he had a lot of suitors.

685
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: I think I think he was so damn grateful for

686
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay wanting him and giving him. I think it

687
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: was twenty five million or something like that. I mean,

688
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: that's why he was all in day one when he

689
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: went to Tampa because he was really grateful that they

690
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: wanted him. Yeah, I mean I asked, I asked Paul

691
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: yesterday straight up. I was like, do you think there's

692
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: a chance of the Patriots are like behind the scenes

693
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: interested in Aaron Rodgers because I just think with those

694
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: kind of players, I've always felt Bill has a special

695
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: respect for those kind of generational players, and you know,

696
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: you can just see it on his face. Bill don't

697
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: have a lot of time left, you know, Like it's

698
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: just like there's some logic behind this move of like

699
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: take just go get Aaron Rodgers, Like I mean, Paul,

700
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 1: Paul didn't really seem to think so Lamar. You know,

701
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: maybe that could be behind the scenes kind of thing,

702
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: but it was just I don't know. I just I

703
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been one hundred percent. I would have been

704
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: very shocked, but not one hundred percent shocked if they're like,

705
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: I don't know where the Patriots swooped in. I mean,

706
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: just based on Bill's timeframe, it would make sense. I

707
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: feel like Lamar makes more sense for that. That's what

708
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: I was going to ask theory, because at least he's young.

709
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 1: So even if Bill retires in three years, you still

710
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 1: have a quarterback. Yeah, it's not like there's an expiration

711
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: date on both your head coach and your quarterback. Would

712
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: but would you pay Lamar? You would you ever see

713
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: them or would yeah, yes, yeah, I mean I would,

714
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: But like, would you ever see the Patriots behind closed

715
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: doors offering that much money to a quarterback? Um? I

716
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: mean they're gonna have to at some point if they're

717
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: lucky enough to find that guy to pay, you know.

718
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 1: And that's the weird like thing about it. It's on

719
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: one hand, like, oh my gosh, would they Well guess

720
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 1: what if they find that guy, They're gonna have to

721
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: at some point. I think doesn't any smart team want

722
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: to be in this situation where you have a guy

723
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: that's that good? I mean clearly not the Ravens because

724
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: what are they doing right now? Well they did, they

725
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: have all the left well, but let's put it. You know,

726
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: even Um I think uh Uh lamar Uh revealed that

727
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 1: he did turn down a pretty hefty offer from them. Yeah,

728
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 1: it was like three years, three years, one hundred and

729
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: thirty three with like ninety million guaranteed or something like Watson's.

730
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: His is more, but only because, um, Watson's is more,

731
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: because you know, overall, because I think it was five

732
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: or six years. But when you break down the first

733
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: three years, it's they were about the same. Okay, you know, Um,

734
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: but that's I think that's where Jackson is, you know,

735
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: myth because they don't they don't want to give me

736
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: three years. You know, I also don't. I'm like intrigued

737
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 1: that he doesn't have an agent. That's I thought. I

738
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: was just going to say, his mom and his agent

739
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: counter counter. I'm gonna counter this one. I mean, it's

740
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 1: it is surprising to me, especially like having worked in

741
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: a kind of seeing what the what is, what the

742
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: negotiations are like, what the back and forth is, like,

743
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: what the context is that the agents know. I mean,

744
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 1: obviously there's a part of it too where the agents

745
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: have interest in this as well, because they're going to

746
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: get a commission and then they're going to be able

747
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: to base other deals off of this. But I just

748
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. It would be really hard to do

749
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 1: that as so complicated, and you have to they have

750
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: to be straight up with you, like this is what

751
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: we really think about you as a player, and this

752
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 1: is why we're offering what it is. And sometimes it's

753
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: better to have that go through a buffer. Just just

754
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: because he doesn't have an agent, does it mean that

755
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: he won't have a lawyer down? Oh, it comes time

756
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 1: to sign advising, hopefully advising him, but I mean hopefully

757
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: he's I mean, it's probably gonna be the thing where

758
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, all right, whatever, four years xxx, this

759
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 1: much guaranteed yes or no, you know, and then it's

760
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: the finer points that you got to let the lawyer

761
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 1: go to work on and figure out where their outs

762
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 1: are and you know, all that kind of stuff that

763
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 1: that teams try to put into contracts so they you know,

764
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: they're not on the hook forever. But I think Lamar's

765
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: situation is intriguing because you don't hear of anything. And

766
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 1: I know one of Paul shows, you know, is accusing

767
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 1: the League of collusion. You know, I'm not saying that

768
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 1: collusion is beyond the owners, but in this particular case,

769
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: I don't see why they would collude, you know, like

770
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a hefty child. The argument is that

771
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,359
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson's contract is something that the owners never want

772
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: to see again, a fully guaranteed quarterback contract for over

773
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,879
Speaker 1: two hundred million dollars. The precedent, the precedent that it's

774
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,479
Speaker 1: said is is tough because Lamar is sitting there saying,

775
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 1: I'm better quarterback than Deshaun Watson. I win more I

776
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: on an MVP, Like I'm better than him, So why

777
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 1: why am I? And off the field, well, you know

778
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: why am I only getting three for one thirty three

779
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: but got double that? But that's short of collusion. I

780
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: mean they can be pissed off at Haslem for doing

781
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: that deal and saying I wouldn't do that deal, and

782
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 1: that could be the consensus among the owners, But I

783
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: don't think it requires collusion to have that opinion, right,

784
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like everybody said that was

785
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: a terrible deal. Yeah, you know it was, like, you

786
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: don't need to collude to come up with that right conclusion.

787
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 1: I just think if you're Baltimore, you have all the leverage.

788
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,840
Speaker 1: You have the franchise tag. It's a bargain to franchise

789
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: tag him, which you really have all control in that situation.

790
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 1: If you do tag him, you can even tag him

791
00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: again next year and it's still a bargain. So it's

792
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: just like there's really no incentive, especially for the style

793
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: a quarterback that he is, for the Ravens to give

794
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: him five years with two hundred million dollars guaranteed, Like

795
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: they don't have to I'm gonna be so intrigued when

796
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: it comes time for Joe Burrow get this because it's

797
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: gonna be wild and that's a historically cheap team. And yeah,

798
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 1: and he paid Orlando Brown though, so that was, you know,

799
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: an interesting that's true and interesting they made they just

800
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,919
Speaker 1: made him the highest offensive lineman ever or I don't,

801
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: I don't know ever but right now in the league.

802
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: Right yeah. But like Joe Burrow, like he's worth he's

803
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: worth a lot of money. Oh yeah, Like there's no

804
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: way that you could look at him and be like, oh,

805
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna and and and I mean to re hit

806
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,360
Speaker 1: a point I keep hitting the last few weeks. It's like,

807
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: you know, at least with him, I feel like he's

808
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 1: nine times out of ten gonna be upright for the

809
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,479
Speaker 1: whole season. And it's gonna be you know, it's gonna

810
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: have when he had an had we got that out

811
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 1: of the way. There's always one. There's always one a

812
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: cl year with the quarterbacks. He got it done. But

813
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: he came back from that and proved that he's still

814
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 1: a no, he's the real deal. And when you have

815
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: a guy like Burrow or Lamar Jackson or Tom Brady.

816
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: You don't just factor in the play, you factor in

817
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: the marketability. How many jerseys is you gonna sells? What

818
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: you do for our France? Those TikTok numbers of just

819
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: any video they post Man, they literally could post a

820
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: picture of him. We're in our content and like marketing me,

821
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: I have to say this, And I'm just watching all

822
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: these men talk about like, oh, the Bengals do this,

823
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 1: and the Eagles like look at their numbers on their

824
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: arrival videos, and all the girls are just sitting in

825
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: the back like yeah, that's because it's Joe Burrow and

826
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts like like like they're postings literally, I think.

827
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:31,879
Speaker 1: I think if if you like analyzed their followers, it's

828
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: probably like a lot more women than you think. And

829
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,879
Speaker 1: not because it is because they like football, but also

830
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: because like looking at half of my algorithm as girls

831
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 1: that don't watch football talking about Evan knows. Evan knows

832
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: that he has to be quiet because he fan boyd

833
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: over Josh Allen. And that's true compliment one time and

834
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: worst mistake of my blood. It wasn't the compliment, it

835
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 1: was talking about it in the meeting. The next month,

836
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:11,800
Speaker 1: he was l from Wisconsin says he has made his

837
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 1: gripe is the way I talked about the start of

838
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: free agency at the end of the last show. He says,

839
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: you mentioned that we go through this all the time.

840
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: Team doesn't do much France freak out, rents and repeat.

841
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,320
Speaker 1: The difference is that in those days, we had the

842
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 1: goat at quarterback and made the AC Championship every year.

843
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: The team didn't really need to get much better. Now

844
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 1: the team needs to drastically improve. The Patriots are staring

845
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 1: down a potential fourth place to visional ranking and can't

846
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 1: fill all the holes in one draft. So yeah, I'm worried,

847
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,840
Speaker 1: and I don't trust Bill to do what's necessary. To me,

848
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: you haven't got any better. Juju from Myers is a wash,

849
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: and signing to mid level right tackles for win is

850
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,320
Speaker 1: also kind of a wash. What date is it? Is

851
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: it March sixteenth or September? Yeah? Sixteenth? Yeah, So, like, listen,

852
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: don't forget what I predicted last year's record was going

853
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,359
Speaker 1: to be eight and nine, Okay, Fred the Homer, Fred

854
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: the Homer, So like, I read the writing on the wall.

855
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 1: But right now, let's let's see what they're gonna do.

856
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: We're just pre mad. Right. In fact, that's the part

857
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 1: that gets me agitated, is because we're four days into

858
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: this guy's in four days in also the implications of

859
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: the what's going on in the division right now. That

860
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: is like, honestly, if that Aaron Rodgers video doesn't happen yesterday,

861
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: if he's not going to the Jets, like, I'm probably cool, dud,

862
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: You like, content's gonna be fun? Yeah, we can no,

863
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: No that listen. That scares me that the Jets defense

864
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers with now haul you know, not hopefully,

865
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 1: I hope he's not healthy, but haul back, you know,

866
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: after his injury, and you know, they're gonna be good.

867
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: They're gonna be good. They should be good. But they're

868
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: the Jets. They could screw it up. Would you put them?

869
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 1: They should be good? I put them as another two

870
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,799
Speaker 1: right now on paper? Who the Jets? The Jets? It's

871
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,359
Speaker 1: those Jets, Miami and US. Now we could be better

872
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: than Miami. That's a possibility as we sit right here

873
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 1: now because we don't know what you know, we don't

874
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 1: know what two is. You know, he could be out

875
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: in week two, you know, Um, so that's that's a

876
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 1: you know, a big gift for them, so we could actually,

877
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: you know, as we sit here right now, be better

878
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: than Miami. Yeah, I mean, and I just I wonder,

879
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: you know, I totally get what he's saying, Like, and

880
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 1: Evan's so right, we're pre mad. We just assume that

881
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna you know, and I said my piece earlier

882
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 1: about you do have to do some of this stuff,

883
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 1: but like, just what is your view on twenty twenty one?

884
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,320
Speaker 1: Like this, they went out, they went hog wild in

885
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, and we were all so excited and

886
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: it was okay, it was okay, you know, so I

887
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 1: just I the bottom line for me is that I

888
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 1: don't think you were going to surpass the Bills in

889
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 1: the first four days of free agency. Like it's just

890
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 1: that's not going to happen. So, you know, like you

891
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: have to be methodical, you have to think about where

892
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: the Patriots really are. And you know, I just I

893
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: said it, going into free agency, I'm not overly enamored

894
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 1: with oh, we could go get a player X, Y,

895
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,359
Speaker 1: and Z and then we're there. It's you know, it's

896
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 1: a lot of these kind of guys, guys like Juju

897
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster that you're like, okay, But at the end

898
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: of the day, I think it's all about development of

899
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 1: these draft picks and nailing this draft again and you

900
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 1: find a couple of guys who can contribute. I think

901
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,800
Speaker 1: you're seeing the roster kind of come together that you have,

902
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 1: you know, a manageable starting point where you have every

903
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 1: kind of hole generally filled, generally filled, not to the

904
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,399
Speaker 1: height you want it, but get to the draft, get

905
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,839
Speaker 1: those guys, add some talent, add two or three guys

906
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,479
Speaker 1: that can come in immediately and contribute. Then you're starting

907
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: to talk about a young team on the upswing with

908
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: a young quarterback. That's where that's where you want to be.

909
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: Not while we went out and overpaid again for all

910
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 1: these free agents, and yeah we won ten games again

911
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, but it really wasn't that good.

912
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 1: And now half of them are you know, we're busts,

913
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 1: and we're gonna have to get rid of those guys

914
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 1: in two years like we did with John u. You know,

915
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 1: those kind of things. It's just it's about the draft

916
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 1: for me. I know that everybody wants to see a

917
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: more aggressive plan, but to me, looking at what they've

918
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,799
Speaker 1: done in free agents, so far, the plan is, let's

919
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 1: plug all of the depth that we need in all

920
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: these other places, line running back, bring back all of

921
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: our defensive players that we liked that fit the system,

922
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: and therefore when we put the cherry on top, we

923
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 1: have all the other foundational elements already in place. Now

924
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: they're still searching for the cherry. I get that, But

925
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 1: if you got to be able to build out the

926
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 1: rest of the roster too, and I think in free agency,

927
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,720
Speaker 1: that's where you can really find value in free agency

928
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: is making sure that you maintain your depth in certain areas,

929
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: maybe make some marginal upgrades like Juju and Jacoby Myers,

930
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 1: and you're not going to You're not going to win

931
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl by winning free agency. It's never done

932
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: that way. And they did it a couple of years

933
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: ago because they had the money to spend and there

934
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 1: was a market correction with COVID and it ended up

935
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: working out for them in the short term. But here

936
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 1: we are again two years later, and we're still in

937
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: the same spot that they were in twenty twenty one.

938
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 1: So free agency is not the place that you make

939
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,919
Speaker 1: these big moves to move the needle. Those guys don't

940
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 1: make it to free agency, they get traded or they

941
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: get re upped by their own teams. Who in the

942
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:12,760
Speaker 1: market right now has moved at wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins

943
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: is still a Cardinal, right, Jerry Judy is still a

944
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: Denver Bronco. Like there's been no big trade, liked, Higgins

945
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 1: is still in Cincinnati. Actually, I just saw that Braxton

946
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 1: the Barrios signed with Miami. Oh that's huge, that's huge.

947
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: But until those things happen, I think that all this

948
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 1: this hysteria is premature until they decide to pass on

949
00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,840
Speaker 1: it all, you know, all this receiver movement and the

950
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 1: real receiver movement, not the Jacobe Myers and Juju Smith schusters,

951
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:46,320
Speaker 1: but the DeAndre Hopkins trades, Like until they pass on those.

952
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: If we get in here the Tuesday after the draft

953
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,839
Speaker 1: and this is how the team looks, then have at

954
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: it like then it's open season. But we got a

955
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,280
Speaker 1: long way to go. I love how BS is rattling

956
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:01,399
Speaker 1: around the AC a bill before long I mean talk

957
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 1: about I mean, but he played in Miami, right, so

958
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 1: it's like Riley, he played on like three three NFC

959
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 1: North teams, Like he's just been floating around. Yeah, he's

960
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he seems like he fits in the Miami

961
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: called he's got, you know, good looking dude. He's like

962
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 1: he doesn't he date somebody's sister or something's little sister.

963
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,439
Speaker 1: So really so he's like, it's funny. He's like living

964
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: the B level Daniel Mendola, It's like the B level

968
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 1: Eldred's in North Carolina? What's up to Aldred? There? It is? Oh, hey,

969
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:45,879
Speaker 1: lady ladies, all right, hey Evan, yes, sir, I hate

970
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 1: did move because my brother is a diehards Steeler fan.

971
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,399
Speaker 1: And when Brown left, they thought he was gonna take over.

972
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: He didn't take over, Aldred. What happened to Big Laugh?

973
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: Come on like it is with washed Big Ben. We're

974
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,800
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna judge him on that. The guy couldn't

975
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 1: even move. He just wasn't the cap mars like to

976
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,320
Speaker 1: see everybody because he's a home grown And I know

977
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:17,919
Speaker 1: he didn't move the needle like everybody's saying, but least

978
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,320
Speaker 1: he did move to move the yard marks. Yard markers

979
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 1: most of the time he was your most reliable receiver.

980
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm surprised. I'm surprising you. I just like you. I

981
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,600
Speaker 1: feel like you want real like guys like Jude. And

982
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,479
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that like you said, he wasn't Antonio Brown,

983
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:36,960
Speaker 1: I'm not. And then I don't think any of us

984
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: are saying he is. But I'm just surprised because I

985
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 1: think you know, he does bring a little bit more

986
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: juice to the offense, and I know, I mean, I

987
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 1: know he's not going to be the guy for us,

988
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,320
Speaker 1: and then that's what you want. But I am a

989
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 1: little surprised. Yeah, but see see that anybody if I

990
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 1: keeps saying the middle of the field. But don't you

991
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,839
Speaker 1: think the defenses know that because we still didn't get

992
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: nobody on the outside yet it's coming to h out

993
00:46:56,600 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: of the defense yet, you know, death death, death, Marcus.

994
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 1: But that's like the rest of like the rest of

995
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 1: the league, like rest of the fan. You have to

996
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: go right something we see yet I know, feel more,

997
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 1: feel more old. But you got a fifth round, and

998
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 1: you went to Dallas and you got a third round

999
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 1: for pet for Rams, those two two could be your

1000
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 1: two starts corner, just like we did with with Reeves

1001
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 1: and not Revers, but yeah, Reeves another guy, if you know,

1002
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: just to start off, instead of doing Bryant and doing

1003
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: Jones with a number one corner, they five short, They

1004
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,440
Speaker 1: can't run with nobody. So that last year, Yeah, that

1005
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,320
Speaker 1: one of the head lakes that we've seen, you know.

1006
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 1: But I think that that's what they're doing with all

1007
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 1: these depth moves, is that they're setting themselves up for

1008
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 1: when the draft comes around. Maybe it is Joey Porter Jr.

1009
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: In the first round. Maybe it is you know, somebody

1010
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: like Quentin Johnson or another receiver that they really like,

1011
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: Zay Flowers, whatever, and you know, name the name the guy.

1012
00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: Because now they're setting themselves up where Okay, we have

1013
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 1: all these other pieces, don't have to we don't have

1014
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:06,320
Speaker 1: to chase that. We don't have to overdraft a guard

1015
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 1: again because we just don't have a guard to play

1016
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: in a game tomorrow. They could play a game tomorrow,

1017
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 1: ye would they be the best team in the league.

1018
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 1: Certainly not, But they don't have any glaring oh they

1019
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 1: need a body here type of holes. And so that

1020
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,399
Speaker 1: we get to the draft and we can go chase

1021
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 1: the high end talent I'm with you totally on that.

1022
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: One more question, all right, what y'all think about I

1023
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: think Riley Riff, I think any of the left tackle

1024
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,960
Speaker 1: the both defined he's he's probably gonna have to stay

1025
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 1: on the right side. If he's old, veteran experience. I mean,

1026
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: but sounds like he's a leader. I don't know that

1027
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,439
Speaker 1: contracts surprised me a little bit just because he's he's

1028
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,040
Speaker 1: near the end of the line. But I think that

1029
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 1: they've established I mean, you've got six tackles now when

1030
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,160
Speaker 1: you bring cajuiced back, you got Calvin Anderson, you signed Reef,

1031
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 1: you brought Connor McDermott back. So I mean they, you know,

1032
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 1: like Tavan's point, they got some depth there, they got

1033
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: some competition. Do they have a number one left tackle?

1034
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,320
Speaker 1: The future? Guy? Know? But who knows? If one of

1035
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 1: those guys Paris John Traft sitting there, all right, we

1036
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 1: don't have to reach for him. But if he's there,

1037
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 1: you know we can take him. Thanks, Aldred. Let's go

1038
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:14,839
Speaker 1: to William and Philham. What's up William? Well, yam, William? Yeah,

1039
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, okay, there is sorry. I don't want to

1040
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: interrupt you, you know, h what's up? I had I

1041
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: had second. I'm sorry. Okay, I'm here, I'm hearing my

1042
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 1: work at my job and whatnot. So you know, don't

1043
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 1: get fined. Um, I'm gonna just get right to it. Uh,

1044
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 1: I can't have you got TikTok boy key, it's great, Okay,

1045
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get this out. I'm trying to get

1046
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 1: this out. Heaven. Is he better than Jacobe Man? Absolutely yes,

1047
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 1: but you've got to also do no. But it's a

1048
00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 1: football team, it's not the boys. Hold on, I can't hear.

1049
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: I can't hear him. What I don't know. I don't

1050
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,399
Speaker 1: know if he if he better than m Jacoby Myers. Yeah,

1051
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: can y'all hear him? Yeah? Yeah, okay, yes he is

1052
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 1: better than Jacoe Meyers. But um, my concern also with him, though,

1053
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 1: Evan is you know the man. I hope he don't

1054
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 1: do no new dances and stuff and the mess the

1055
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 1: team up basically or jump into somebody's ends, don't do

1056
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,839
Speaker 1: some more nonsense and then the other the other team

1057
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 1: on other styles. Great, not come on the sideline, you

1058
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about? Why are we afraid of that?

1059
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: Isn't that a like? Why am I afraid go catch

1060
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,280
Speaker 1: a touchdown on Buffalo and go dance on that danglo

1061
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:38,719
Speaker 1: though and shove it in their faces like have some

1062
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:43,319
Speaker 1: have some about him after the game and start they

1063
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 1: don't have anybody that has any type of alpha energy

1064
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 1: like that? Is that alpha? Social media? Start? Evan, he's

1065
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,840
Speaker 1: in New England. He's nowhere. He's not with the steel

1066
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 1: of anybody else. He's in New England. You think Bill

1067
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 1: gonna play a lot that nonsense? I don't. Yes, I

1068
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 1: think he is. I would, I don't think. I don't

1069
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,320
Speaker 1: think Bill will tolerate disrespecting other teams. I'm not asking

1070
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 1: the disrespect dance on their logo, like when have you know?

1071
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: It would be good to have somebody around that act

1072
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 1: teams don't like playing again, So that's different. Yeah, like

1073
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 1: when Sauce beat the Packers and put the cheese head

1074
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 1: on top of his head, that's wild. There's no way

1075
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 1: Bill allow that. Yeah. And my last my last thing

1076
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 1: is this, and I'll and I'll leave it at this.

1077
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 1: And I just want to dress Evan a little bit

1078
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,120

1106
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,200

1107
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,279
Speaker 1: to anybody or anything like that. It's just that just

1108
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: shows a little bit of patience. That's all I'm asking for. Uh,

1109
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 1: let's go to Christian and Boston. What's up, Chris for

1110
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:58,800
Speaker 1: the t I A n Hey, frady, what's happening on everybody?

1111
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 1: How you doing? Hey? By the way, if you put

1112
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:04,200
Speaker 1: your brain power to it, we can figure out how

1113
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 1: to get rid of the telephone poles. We can figure

1114
00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 1: it out. That's why I mean, that's why I'm called

1115
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 1: two and a half chosen. There's no update on your proposal. Tom,

1116
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 1: it's working its way through the legislature. It's working its

1117
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:20,560
Speaker 1: way through the legislature. That's not a good sign. I

1118
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 1: know you can't get any the legislure. I know it's

1119
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: a private conversation. What are you guys talk about no

1120
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,800
Speaker 1: I proposed I proposed a thirty year plan on Twitter

1121
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 1: to remove all telephone poles in the United States. I

1122
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,040
Speaker 1: like it. I don' think they're dangerous. Them in the ground,

1123
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,480
Speaker 1: they're dangerous. The dangerous. The hit one in the east.

1124
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 1: It's easy to hit that. Every time there's a storm

1125
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 1: there's outages. Let's bury them right near the old uh yeah,

1126
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 1: drive in theaters. It's difficult, but it can be done.

1127
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: Bury him. Yeahs um, we'll save that one for a

1128
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,279
Speaker 1: few weeks. Yeah, definitely, we're gonna need it. Like June Table,

1129
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 1: I am worried, you know, sort of the this whole

1130
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 1: dynamic and what and why don't I get you what

1131
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: you guys thought on it about the locker room and

1132
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: you know whether your Kobe was quote there's a theory

1133
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 1: out there feed room as one of these quote group

1134
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 1: of five in that group of five that was that

1135
00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 1: was during the season, that was causing an issue, and

1136
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 1: you know if that was a factor in this, Like, yeah,

1137
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 1: Judo's a better player, but not by much. I mean,

1138
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: I don't think you're going to get a guy here

1139
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 1: that's going to help you win games. You're gonna get

1140
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:34,360
Speaker 1: a guy that's going to help you move the chains.

1141
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. If you've got a guy that's gonna

1142
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 1: help you win games, I don't. And that's what they need.

1143
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:39,920
Speaker 1: They need a guy that can help them win games.

1144
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 1: And Fred, I'm with you off the top, like they

1145
00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: haven't drafted and developed anybody realistically since Dion Branch. I

1146
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: guess you could throw Malcolm mitcham and there if you want.

1147
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: But then you have a guy who you knew fit

1148
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 1: your system, where you knew understood your system, who last year,

1149
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: in the midst of a dumpster fire of an offense,

1150
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 1: actually produced and what we all agreed was like the

1151
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:05,160
Speaker 1: worst offense they've had in years, and he just let

1152
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 1: him walk. Yeah, So that's where I'm coming from. Is frustrated,

1153
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: But I am curious to see what you guys think

1154
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:11,879
Speaker 1: on the on the whole thing with the law from

1155
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:13,920
Speaker 1: Dynamic and stuff. Who are you? Who are the other?

1156
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 1: Thanks Christel four of this fellow. So that's the language. Um,

1157
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I just I disagree with him. I disagree

1158
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 1: with the point that he's not going to help him

1159
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,879
Speaker 1: win games. I mean, I think you can see plenty

1160
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,399
Speaker 1: of plays that he's made where he catches the ball,

1161
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,759
Speaker 1: he breaks the tackle, he pulls away, and it's a

1162
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:39,040
Speaker 1: big play. Um he's got I just think that he's

1163
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,320
Speaker 1: a better player. And I know that it's not exactly

1164
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 1: what everybody wants, but I do think it's a worthy upgrade.

1165
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm not really trumpeting anything else they've done.

1166
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:48,960
Speaker 1: I think they're solid moves, but this is one that

1167
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 1: I think they made an upgrade on the team. And

1168
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:55,000
Speaker 1: it's just hard, like what what do you want? Like

1169
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:56,360
Speaker 1: what do you what do you need? Like it's just

1170
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:58,920
Speaker 1: it just feels like everybody just clamoring for stars and

1171
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: that's all. That's the only way to do is to

1172
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: sign star players. That's it. That's the only way we

1173
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 1: get out of this is if we sign stars in

1174
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 1: free agency. And I mean, I'm like speaking for myself.

1175
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,280
Speaker 1: It's I don't know if people realize like how ridiculous

1176
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 1: social media is during this period, Like people are relentless

1177
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,160
Speaker 1: about at us like we have anything to do with

1178
00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:21,480
Speaker 1: it actually at about that. But it's just like it

1179
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: is like, oh my gosh, how long have we been

1180
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:25,879
Speaker 1: doing this? I mean, I mean I have been doing

1181
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:29,280
Speaker 1: this for what two thousand and six? I mean seventeen

1182
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 1: years have been following every moment of the Patriots and like,

1183
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:34,800
Speaker 1: come on, like we know how this goes. I know

1184
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: sometimes they go crazy and free agents sometimes it's more reserved,

1185
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,560
Speaker 1: but based on where they are and where they need

1186
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 1: to go, I think it's more about the draft and

1187
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,160
Speaker 1: developing guys than it's going to be about these big

1188
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,319
Speaker 1: splashes and free agency. All right, we're gonna we're gonna

1189
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,800
Speaker 1: pay quick question about like the locker room thing and

1190
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 1: Jacobe being a problem in the locker room. That's the

1191
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 1: most sad possible. I mean, the only thing I can't

1192
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 1: say is just like, well, then why is Kendrick Bourne

1193
00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:58,839
Speaker 1: still here? Because Kendrick Bourne was apparently one of those

1194
00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 1: guys who was talking to So if they're on a

1195
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 1: purge to get rid of anybody who said poor of

1196
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 1: the mat puts offense, and where else is I'm actually surprised.

1197
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:10,160
Speaker 1: I thought that that I had had no idea about

1198
00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 1: that take that one of Paul Show has had, Uh

1199
00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 1: I do it right? Who else? But I actually kind

1200
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 1: of feel like it's the opposite exact from where the

1201
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 1: opinion was of these guys that have been leaders in

1202
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:24,560
Speaker 1: this locker room. You know, they haven't really won anything.

1203
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:26,959
Speaker 1: They haven't really been, you know, great on that side

1204
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,560
Speaker 1: of the ball, and I think they're trying to get

1205
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:32,000
Speaker 1: some new energy, some some fresh perspective. And I also

1206
00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: think we've talked about it a lot, Mike. Some of

1207
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 1: these guys like Romandre, like some of these are guys

1208
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 1: are more quiet, more reserved people, and they don't necessarily

1209
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 1: have that that big energy to them. I actually think

1210
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,440
Speaker 1: that that's more about that than it is about them

1211
00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 1: being problems. And I don't think they were problems. I

1212
00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,520
Speaker 1: just don't think they looked at the last three years

1213
00:57:54,560 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 1: and they said, what did we really accomplish in the

1214
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,920
Speaker 1: last three years with this core, with this group of players.

1215
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 1: And also Jacoby wouldn't have won the award. The media

1216
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:05,960
Speaker 1: awar like if he was really a problem in the

1217
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:08,919
Speaker 1: locker room like he was all but yea, what I'm saying,

1218
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,040
Speaker 1: he was still like great to talk to, win loss.

1219
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:14,120
Speaker 1: I mean even after through his Raiders game situation. It's

1220
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 1: not it's I think the I think his teammates loved him,

1221
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,800
Speaker 1: so that wasn't the problems. I think he said things

1222
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 1: that irked the coaches. The only thing that he said

1223
00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:26,480
Speaker 1: was when Matt got pulled for um literally him his

1224
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,360
Speaker 1: name for Zappi. When he got pulled for Zappy, he

1225
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 1: said he was shocked, like he was shocked that that happened.

1226
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:34,960
Speaker 1: When it happened, because everyone was blooming and stuff. That's

1227
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:36,560
Speaker 1: the only thing that I heard him say, and like

1228
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 1: it's the truth. We were all shocked. I know that

1229
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: you don't say that. You don't say that publicly. You

1230
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:45,520
Speaker 1: don't say it because it causes problems, you know. Um

1231
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 1: And he said some other things earlier before the season

1232
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:52,680
Speaker 1: about the offense a little bit. He says something, listen,

1233
00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:56,120
Speaker 1: I loved It's great to hear guys that speak their mind.

1234
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 1: But that's not the patriot way, not public not publicly.

1235
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any I think Bill wants to

1236
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 1: hear from people. But inside, keep keep our stuff inside,

1237
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 1: you know. I'm at one more point. I also just

1238
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 1: feel like if right now, if me and Evan were

1239
00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 1: on the side of but he knows the system for

1240
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: a guy, that we'd be getting killed. Like that is

1241
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 1: why I'm so well he knew the system, Like people

1242
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 1: are saying, well, he knew the system. I'm like, don't

1243
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 1: we need more than system was talent all the way

00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,960

01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:18,640
Speaker 1: did Verizon build the fastest five G in the world.

1259
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 1: We started by building it right with five G ultra wideband.

1260
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 1: Then we gave it massive capacity and near zero lag.

1261
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 1: And it's not just fast, it's twenty five times faster

1262
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,920
Speaker 1: than today's four G networks. This is five G built

01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 1: school play costumes, oh No replacements were shipped with FedEx

1353
01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:48,080
Speaker 1: and with picture proof of delivery, everyone could focus on

1354
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: the perfect opening night FedEx where now meets next for

1355
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 1: residential delivery only in sports. If you think joy only

1356
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 1: happens after you win, think again. Look at the world's

1357
01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:02,480
Speaker 1: most successful athletes. Serena Williams Brooks, Koepka and Alex Morgan.

1358
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 1: They don't spend all that day's grinding away. They take

1359
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 1: time to enjoy themselves, like getting together the friends over

1360
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 1: Michelobe Ultra, because they know that happiness is the key

1361
01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 1: to win it, and that joy is the whole game,

1362
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:16,840
Speaker 1: not just the end game. Michelobe Ultra ninety five calories,

1363
01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:19,160
Speaker 1: two point six grams of cars. It's only worth it

1364
01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 1: if you enjoy it and you're responsibly ab michaelom Ultra

1365
01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 1: light Bearer saying, Louis, Missouri. Some people are never content

1366
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:29,160
Speaker 1: with simply being good, not when they can be great.

1367
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:33,200
Speaker 1: But it takes a big step to get there. In fact,

1368
01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:36,440
Speaker 1: it takes a leap of faith, a belief in what

1369
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 1: you're striving it toward, and a willingness to make the

1370
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:43,640
Speaker 1: commitment day in and day out to something bigger than yourself.

Speaker 1: a tough one, yeah, it is. Um. Some of the

1462
01:11:57,560 --> 01:12:01,280
Speaker 1: emails web radio at Patriots dot com natives are restless.

1463
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 1: Richard Hamden, Connecticut says he's mad at Evan. He says, so,

1464
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:09,240
Speaker 1: he says, boy, scouts don't win your super Bowls, but

1465
01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 1: TikTok and bad guys win your super Bowls. Please, this

1466
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,880
Speaker 1: will turn out to be a mistake, mark my words.

1467
01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 1: We had a bad locker room vibe last year, and

1468
01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:20,599
Speaker 1: now you add this guy who thinks he's the star

1469
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:23,360
Speaker 1: on a team of let's face it, not many stars.

1470
01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:27,080
Speaker 1: Doesn't liking your own player account for anything anymore? No,

1471
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:30,280
Speaker 1: but also was he like that in Kansas City? Was

1472
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,519
Speaker 1: he overshadowing Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey in Kansas City.

1473
01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:35,720
Speaker 1: I didn't get on the team. Well, I think that's

1474
01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:38,880
Speaker 1: his point is there they had stars, so he didn't

1475
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,519
Speaker 1: have to be this. I just if you want to,

1476
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:43,519
Speaker 1: if you want to have an opinion about juju like that,

1477
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,760
Speaker 1: because he likes TikTok and has a little bit of

1478
01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:48,839
Speaker 1: a I don't even want to call it an attitude

1479
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:50,960
Speaker 1: because I don't think that's right. But that's your opinion.

1480
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,320
Speaker 1: I'm not going to change your mind. No, And if

1481
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:55,960
Speaker 1: that's what you're concerned about, then I guess we'll see.

1482
01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:58,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's certainly something that has been an issue

1483
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 1: around here if guys, you know. But to Evan's point,

1484
01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:03,559
Speaker 1: I think that they're trying to change a locker room

1485
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:05,519
Speaker 1: dynamic and a lot of the bad juju last year

1486
01:13:05,600 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 1: was the fact that the offensive side of the ball.

1487
01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:15,400
Speaker 1: It is, No, I didn't, but I think a lot

1488
01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 1: of the bad vibes last year were, you know, because

1489
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 1: they often sen't know what the hell they were doing.

1490
01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:21,000
Speaker 1: And so yeah, that was trick it down the fact,

1491
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:23,040
Speaker 1: and it wasn't like, oh, they had all these bad personalities,

1492
01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 1: Like I don't think Kendrick Bourne did anything wrong when

1493
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,240
Speaker 1: Josh mutanny was here the year before and everything was

1494
01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 1: going good. It's now. But look, you're Evan, if that's

1495
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,320
Speaker 1: what you're concerned about, that he doesn't know the offense

1496
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,360
Speaker 1: and that he might make Tiktoks, who knows. Maybe uh

1497
01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:39,800
Speaker 1: Stevie from Texas is mad at Evan too. He says

1498
01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:46,360
Speaker 1: this is a wild He says, let's get something straight. Evan.

1499
01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:49,360
Speaker 1: You keep mentioning Jacobe eight hundred yards from last year,

1500
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:52,839
Speaker 1: but let's not forget he did this play playing fourteen

1501
01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:55,519
Speaker 1: out of seventeen games. You can argue that two of

1502
01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 1: those ju had nine thirty three and fifteen. You can

1503
01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:00,760
Speaker 1: argue that two of those fourteen games he was banged up.

1504
01:14:01,120 --> 01:14:05,840
Speaker 1: He could have easily had a better year than TikTok. Also, Evan,

1505
01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:07,880
Speaker 1: I think you're dreaming if you think we're going to

1506
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 1: draft a free agent and bring him in and develop

1507
01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 1: him to a star receiver to a star receiver. Quit

1508
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:16,240
Speaker 1: slandering Jacoby. He's better than any other receiver on the team.

1509
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:19,120
Speaker 1: I think he would have produced well in Bill Leo's offense,

1510
01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:23,000
Speaker 1: and I'm very disappointed we let him walk for TikTok Boys.

1511
01:14:23,400 --> 01:14:26,880
Speaker 1: Just to be clear, man, I feel almost bad for Juju,

1512
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:31,640
Speaker 1: no Jacoby. I'm not slandering Jacoby. Okay, this is this

1513
01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:35,400
Speaker 1: is a for me. This is analysis like a business

1514
01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:39,200
Speaker 1: like they evaluate football players, Okay, Like I don't care

1515
01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:41,640
Speaker 1: about the person when it comes to what they're going

1516
01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,200
Speaker 1: to do between the lines, I just don't. And I

1517
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,280
Speaker 1: think Juju is a better football player than Jacoby. And

1518
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:51,680
Speaker 1: I'm genuinely shocked at this fan base that's been starving

1519
01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:55,040
Speaker 1: for better playmakers on offense, just desperate for it for

1520
01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 1: years now is now coming out and saying, Oh, but

1521
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:00,560
Speaker 1: this guy was. He was a good he made and

1522
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:03,120
Speaker 1: he was a good system fit, and he was good

1523
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:06,280
Speaker 1: in the locker room, and everybody Mac love to like,

1524
01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:08,680
Speaker 1: that's what we're gravitating towards that run it back. We

1525
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:11,200
Speaker 1: used to get making fun of for gravitating towards some

1526
01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:13,240
Speaker 1: of those types of things, and now we're doing that.

1527
01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:17,439
Speaker 1: Like I just I'm so blown away to that. Franklin

1528
01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:20,880
Speaker 1: and Baltimore. Lazarre said last show that he wants the

1529
01:15:20,960 --> 01:15:23,439
Speaker 1: Patriots to have a lineup of great receivers just like

1530
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,879
Speaker 1: the Bengals. So why is there contentment over the Patriots

1531
01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:30,200
Speaker 1: signing Juju? Where it is both a statistical as well

1532
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:33,120
Speaker 1: as analytical fact, he is a lesser receiver than what

1533
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:35,720
Speaker 1: he showed in Pittsburgh. If the point is to have

1534
01:15:36,320 --> 01:15:40,240
Speaker 1: great receivers, period, shouldn't he want more than Juju? Because

1535
01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:42,439
Speaker 1: I absolutely do. He has proven to be a much

1536
01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:46,120
Speaker 1: lesser player than what is twenty eighteen seasons show, which

1537
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:49,880
Speaker 1: is the definition of a statistical outlier, no matter how

1538
01:15:49,960 --> 01:15:53,599
Speaker 1: many excuses is given for his lack of production. Well

1539
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,519
Speaker 1: but that, I mean, yes, but like he's also at

1540
01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:58,760
Speaker 1: least demonstrated that he has a ceiling. And I'm you know,

1541
01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:00,599
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say that, I'm gonna I'm in here

1542
01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:02,320
Speaker 1: and expect that he's going to have what he had

1543
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:04,439
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, which was one hundred and eleven catches

1544
01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:07,920
Speaker 1: for fourteen hundred and twenty six yards and seven touchdowns. Like,

1545
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:10,160
Speaker 1: but it's not like he fell off a cliff. I mean,

1546
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:13,879
Speaker 1: two years later, twenty twenty ninety seven catches, nine touchdowns,

1547
01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:16,280
Speaker 1: eight hundred and thirty one yards. The guy has produced.

1548
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,120
Speaker 1: He's the same age as Jacobe. I just I think

1549
01:16:19,160 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 1: he's an improvement. And you can talk about like he's

1550
01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:23,600
Speaker 1: never going to be that guy again. Maybe not, but

1551
01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:25,560
Speaker 1: I think based on the kind of player he is.

1552
01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:27,920
Speaker 1: It's an upgrade on Jacoby Mine. At least he has

1553
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,920
Speaker 1: that on his resume, Like, at least we've seen him

1554
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,560
Speaker 1: in the NFL have a season like he did in

1555
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:35,960
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen where he was a pro bowler and had

1556
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 1: these great stats. Like, at least that's on there, because

1557
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:41,759
Speaker 1: they did in twenty twenty one when they signed Agalore

1558
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 1: and they signed Kendrick Boorne. That was about projecting forward

1559
01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,240
Speaker 1: of oh, maybe this guy could could break out. Maybe

1560
01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:50,759
Speaker 1: Kendrick Boorne. How many times have we heard of Kendrick

1561
01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:52,960
Speaker 1: Boorne breakout? Take right, Like, Oh, he's the guy that

1562
01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:55,599
Speaker 1: they need to feature in the offense. This guy has

1563
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:58,160
Speaker 1: been featured in an offense and has produced at a

1564
01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 1: high level and has made a pro They got a

1565
01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:03,760
Speaker 1: former pro bowler and people are mad about it. I'm

1566
01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 1: just I feel like I'm living in like an alternate

1567
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:10,160
Speaker 1: universe right now. He doesn't know the offense. Let's get

1568
01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:12,759
Speaker 1: back to the phones. We do have a lot more emails,

1569
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,799
Speaker 1: um and they're not happy, but we'll get to the phones.

1570
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 1: Xaviers in California, What's what's up? Xavier? Xavier x man,

1571
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 1: what's up? Xavier. No, yeah, I'm mute. No, okay, we're

1572
01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:29,639
Speaker 1: gonna move on. We're gonna go to New York where

1573
01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:34,120
Speaker 1: Tyson is on the phone. What's up, Tyson? Yeah, what's up? Guys?

1574
01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:36,640
Speaker 1: This first time call along time listener. Thank you. I

1575
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,400
Speaker 1: just want to say that you're welcome. Um. I just

1576
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:42,320
Speaker 1: feel like I'm like it's a Patriots fan on. I

1577
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:45,759
Speaker 1: feel like I've been live too, because Robert Kraft promised

1578
01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 1: us an improved product on the field. Meanwhile, you're paying

1579
01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:52,000
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty million dollars for stadium renovation, but

1580
01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:54,240
Speaker 1: you don't have the balls enough to go and at

1581
01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:56,599
Speaker 1: least talk to Lamar Jackson ask them what he wants.

1582
01:17:56,840 --> 01:17:58,960
Speaker 1: It's March sixteen. Well do you know that they didn't

1583
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:03,000
Speaker 1: do that March team? Yeah, on the field. Yeah he's

1584
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:05,880
Speaker 1: talking specifically. I mean maybe they did talk to Lamar Jackson.

1585
01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 1: I don't know that. I don't know. Yeah. Like I said,

1586
01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 1: my problem is there's no buzz around this team. There's

1587
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 1: no buzz on social media about this team. We were

1588
01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:18,360
Speaker 1: promised an improve an improved products. At least get in

1589
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:21,519
Speaker 1: the room, at least like at least gives me something

1590
01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 1: like going for ju Ju a TikTok star. What's the

1591
01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:27,519
Speaker 1: point of having his massive scoreboard when there's not gonna

1592
01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:32,759
Speaker 1: be no point scored? WHOA. It's obvious that Belichick doesn't

1593
01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:35,000
Speaker 1: believe in mac Jones, because if he did, he wouldn't

1594
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:38,040
Speaker 1: have taken his Binkie and Jakobe Myers away. Like, it

1595
01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:41,320
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense to me. The Patriot way is, Okay,

1596
01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:43,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna draft you, we're gonna develop you, and then

1597
01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:45,200
Speaker 1: we're not gonna pay you. As a matter of fact,

1598
01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:47,680
Speaker 1: We're gonna go out and get somebody else and pay

1599
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:49,760
Speaker 1: him the same exact money which we should have paid

1600
01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:53,600
Speaker 1: Jakobe Myers. My problem is with this franchise is that

1601
01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:56,680
Speaker 1: you're you're middling. You're middling. You got Aaron Rodgers in

1602
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:58,840
Speaker 1: the division, you got dog walk by the Bills the

1603
01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:00,799
Speaker 1: last few years. You can't win it the Vision anymore,

1604
01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:03,400
Speaker 1: and now the Miami Dolphins afister passed you. But you

1605
01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:05,760
Speaker 1: want me to go spend money to go see mass

1606
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:10,519
Speaker 1: Corkle Jones. You throw to Juju Wow when they're off, Like,

1607
01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:13,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't make any sense to me. Why can't Belichick

1608
01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:15,720
Speaker 1: or Robert Kraft just pony up and at least give

1609
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:17,760
Speaker 1: us a last dance. At least get in the room

1610
01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:21,040
Speaker 1: with Lamar Jackson and ask him what he wants, because

1611
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:23,160
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you can't win with

1612
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:25,320
Speaker 1: this type of offense anymore. If you gotta go out

1613
01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,439
Speaker 1: and get a franchise quarterback. And I don't care what

1614
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 1: he pays for. Why are fans so upset with? Well,

1615
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:32,760
Speaker 1: what do we dumpster diet? What do we shop at

1616
01:19:32,800 --> 01:19:34,680
Speaker 1: the thrift store? If you want to get better? If

1617
01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:37,040
Speaker 1: you want and you're gonna get that investment back, by

1618
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,280
Speaker 1: the way, because you're gonna get it through Jersey Seals,

1619
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:42,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna get buzz our social media. You completely change

1620
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 1: the trajectory off your franchise going forward rather than middling

1621
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:50,040
Speaker 1: for the next five years something. That's all I'm asking.

1622
01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:52,960
Speaker 1: At least get in the room with Lamar Jackson. I okay,

1623
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:59,160
Speaker 1: love it. I love the passion. Yeah, that was like favorite,

1624
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 1: that was that's my favorite call. That was really good.

1625
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 1: That was a mic drop, the whole type of phone call.

1626
01:20:04,880 --> 01:20:06,599
Speaker 1: Paul would have liked that, and it meant a lot

1627
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:09,759
Speaker 1: because it came from someone that listens and doesn't always

1628
01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:11,840
Speaker 1: feel the need to weigh in. Today he felt the

1629
01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:13,720
Speaker 1: need to weigh that was that was beautiful. That was

1630
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 1: an epic call. Now, the chances if they had gotten

1631
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:18,880
Speaker 1: in the room with Lamar, chances our Lamar would have

1632
01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:22,400
Speaker 1: said something. So they probably haven't. But honestly, we don't know.

1633
01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:25,719
Speaker 1: We don't know if they hadn't reached out to Lamar's

1634
01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:28,960
Speaker 1: mom and say, hey, mom, what what does he want?

1635
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:31,840
Speaker 1: Or you know. I like the point he made about

1636
01:20:31,880 --> 01:20:33,880
Speaker 1: like there's no buzz though, like we'll hear like I

1637
01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:37,600
Speaker 1: don't Patriots are interested in these players social media, but

1638
01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:40,600
Speaker 1: the salary is an issue and it's just yeah, I

1639
01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:42,320
Speaker 1: don't know. I would like to hear more of that stuff.

1640
01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:44,080
Speaker 1: I would like to hear that they're getting after it.

1641
01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:46,320
Speaker 1: But I think I don't think it's even about social media.

1642
01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:47,760
Speaker 1: I think it's about like even what I said on

1643
01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:50,120
Speaker 1: Tuesday in the show of like when you come to

1644
01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 1: play the Patriots, were are you scared of what challenges you? Nothing?

1645
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:55,439
Speaker 1: Right now? And like what Meanwhile, when we go into

1646
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:58,439
Speaker 1: the Patriots locker room and they're facing other teams, they're like, yeah,

1647
01:20:58,520 --> 01:21:00,320
Speaker 1: we have to try to stop Lamar Jackson. Yeah, we

1648
01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:02,439
Speaker 1: have to you know, try to stop borrow Chase but

1649
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:04,080
Speaker 1: when you play the Patriots and you go in their

1650
01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 1: locker room, you're asking them, like, what challenges did you

1651
01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:09,920
Speaker 1: face with this offense? Nothing? Just say that about Tyler Huntley.

1652
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 1: So but but I'm saying, like, there's just nothing that,

1653
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 1: like you really that scares you. It's just been so predictable,

1654
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:20,120
Speaker 1: so boring, so like it's just not esthetically pleasing. No,

1655
01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:22,840
Speaker 1: and so there is no bus. There is no bus

1656
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:25,760
Speaker 1: the agency that that would would fit there. I'm with

1657
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:29,639
Speaker 1: you in the take. But like those players haven't moved yet,

1658
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:32,920
Speaker 1: and we're all just getting all crazy and all riled

1659
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,240
Speaker 1: up about the fact that the Patriots haven't had to

1660
01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:38,160
Speaker 1: sit down with Lamar. Has Lamar Jackson been traded? Has

1661
01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:41,920
Speaker 1: he Where is Lamar Jackson playing for a different team

1662
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:44,800
Speaker 1: as he signed an extension with Baltimore? Is there any

1663
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:49,240
Speaker 1: movement whatsoever as an example, Okay, I'm just Hopkins been traded.

1664
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:51,840
Speaker 1: We need to find money for DeAndre Is. Has O'Dell

1665
01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:56,400
Speaker 1: signed with a new team. Has Jerry Judy moved? Yeah? No,

1666
01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:58,560
Speaker 1: It's it's all good points. It's all good points. But

1667
01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:02,960
Speaker 1: I think that if you were targeting a top flight quarterback,

1668
01:22:03,320 --> 01:22:06,400
Speaker 1: you'd be doing it right now you don't wait on that. Yeah, no, no,

1669
01:22:06,800 --> 01:22:09,880
Speaker 1: but but we don't know if they're doing that or yeah,

1670
01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:11,560
Speaker 1: we don't. But to your point, do you think that

1671
01:22:12,439 --> 01:22:15,360
Speaker 1: like we're going to get an update that Odell or

1672
01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:17,960
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy or we're making one of these trades, Like

1673
01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:21,240
Speaker 1: is that feasible? Like because for me, I've ruled it out.

1674
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,320
Speaker 1: It's a pipe dream. All I can tell you is this,

1675
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,200
Speaker 1: And I try not to say too much because I

1676
01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:30,080
Speaker 1: don't I don't want to get in any hot water.

1677
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:35,800
Speaker 1: Those conversations are going on in the building, That conversation

1678
01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:40,160
Speaker 1: about those level of players is going on a hundred

1679
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:43,679
Speaker 1: yards from here. That the director of player personnel told

1680
01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:46,120
Speaker 1: me in an interview that those conversations are going on.

1681
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:49,800
Speaker 1: We printed it on Patriots dot com that those conversations

1682
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 1: are going on about this team that they need to

1683
01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:56,479
Speaker 1: get that dynamic playmaker, that they need to pony up

1684
01:22:56,800 --> 01:23:00,519
Speaker 1: for those dynamic playmakers. Unfortunately, right now, for days into

1685
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 1: free agency, none of those guys have moved yet. Yeah,

1686
01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:06,559
Speaker 1: and you know, the Patriots don't want to be always,

1687
01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:10,200
Speaker 1: you know, negotiating, negotiating against themselves, so they might have

1688
01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 1: gone to a Jerry Judy or ob j and said, listen,

1689
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:18,120
Speaker 1: we want you here. You know, here's our ballpark. Go

1690
01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:21,479
Speaker 1: see what you're you know, can get come back to us.

1691
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:24,800
Speaker 1: We're interested in you, you know. So maybe it's just

1692
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,519
Speaker 1: gonna take time if it does happen, which I just

1693
01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:29,519
Speaker 1: think is good business generally, Like I mean, I don't

1694
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:31,200
Speaker 1: want to I mean I don't want to pour water

1695
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:32,960
Speaker 1: on it, but like, don't you I always just feel

1696
01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 1: like the Patriots weren't, Just like, it's good business. You

1697
01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,639
Speaker 1: should reach out on anybody that could potentially help the team.

1698
01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:40,080
Speaker 1: Let's say, what do you think and what's it gonna take. Okay,

1699
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:42,080
Speaker 1: not for us, but we've you know, and then it's

1700
01:23:42,120 --> 01:23:44,080
Speaker 1: reported as well the Patriots checked in on him. Oh

1701
01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:46,120
Speaker 1: my god, you know. Like so, I mean there's varying

1702
01:23:46,160 --> 01:23:49,599
Speaker 1: degrees of interest, and there's also a baseline of due

1703
01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:52,040
Speaker 1: diligence and needing to know what's available around the league,

1704
01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:53,360
Speaker 1: and I think, you know, they're on top of it.

1705
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:55,639
Speaker 1: So and you never know, like the Bengals just signed

1706
01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:58,600
Speaker 1: Orlando Brown, they just spent a ton of cash. So

1707
01:23:58,680 --> 01:24:01,040
Speaker 1: maybe now it's time where they start picking up the

1708
01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:03,800
Speaker 1: phone about te Higgins, you know, because they're not gonna

1709
01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:08,120
Speaker 1: pay him, you know, so who knows. Evan's right, it's early.

1710
01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:11,840
Speaker 1: It's early, so let's see what happens. And they haven't

1711
01:24:11,880 --> 01:24:14,920
Speaker 1: really made you know, Juju was like a solid move,

1712
01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:16,800
Speaker 1: but that's not really a splash, you know, like like

1713
01:24:16,960 --> 01:24:19,440
Speaker 1: it's and I think that they still have the resources

1714
01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:22,360
Speaker 1: to make those splash moves. So I think part of

1715
01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:23,960
Speaker 1: it is you need to let it play out a

1716
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:26,360
Speaker 1: little bit because everybody gets all hot and bothered this

1717
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:28,920
Speaker 1: first week with you know, teams reaching out to guys,

1718
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:30,320
Speaker 1: what are you think? And how about this? How about

1719
01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 1: You're going back and forth in all kinds of different

1720
01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:35,360
Speaker 1: ways trying to find compensation that that will work for everybody.

1721
01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:38,920
Speaker 1: So it's ongoing. It's ongoing right now, and like Evan said,

1722
01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:41,920
Speaker 1: we're day four, so who knows. Within the next day

1723
01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:44,040
Speaker 1: and a half it could continue to look different. It

1724
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:46,639
Speaker 1: certainly looks a lot different to me. Maybe not world's

1725
01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:49,200
Speaker 1: different than it did on Tuesday. You know, I'm interested.

1726
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:51,920
Speaker 1: I don't has anyone heard what Chiefs fans are saying

1727
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:57,120
Speaker 1: with Myers coming in? You mean raiders? I mean raiders? Yeah, no, no,

1728
01:24:57,280 --> 01:24:59,960
Speaker 1: I haven't seen a wait a wait, he didn't never mind,

1729
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:06,880
Speaker 1: I'm all confused. Oh my god, Mark that one Tamara

1730
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:09,679
Speaker 1: was what had up on the screen she had Jacoby

1731
01:25:09,720 --> 01:25:11,920
Speaker 1: looked like he's doing his intro press conference in that

1732
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:14,040
Speaker 1: uh in that press room that we were that we

1733
01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:15,760
Speaker 1: were in out there in the taj Mahal. So, yeah,

1734
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,479
Speaker 1: it was very sad. And I message my friends there,

1735
01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, you are getting a gym in Jacoby. You're

1736
01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,559
Speaker 1: gonna love him in the locker room. Yeah, I love him.

1737
01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:28,240
Speaker 1: They already have Adam, so I mean, there's great. Let's

1738
01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 1: go to Tyree and South Carolina. What's up Tyree? Hey,

1739
01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if you said China, but I'm in Traston,

1740
01:25:36,920 --> 01:25:40,519
Speaker 1: I said South Carolina. Oh, soccer. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

1741
01:25:41,080 --> 01:25:44,720
Speaker 1: First of all, I love Evan, Um. I hate that

1742
01:25:44,800 --> 01:25:50,920
Speaker 1: everybody's picking on him today. He's a great guy, you know. Um.

1743
01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:54,320
Speaker 1: But I think as far as like the off season

1744
01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,000
Speaker 1: acquisitions that we're trying to make, you know, maybe we

1745
01:25:57,200 --> 01:26:00,519
Speaker 1: do end up with Mike Kiseki, or know, we get

1746
01:26:00,600 --> 01:26:04,280
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy with the contract that he has, But overall,

1747
01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:07,479
Speaker 1: I don't really know. I think we should really be

1748
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:11,040
Speaker 1: looking forwards to draft overall for what our future is

1749
01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:14,400
Speaker 1: because we have great pieces on our defense and we

1750
01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:17,640
Speaker 1: have solid resources on our offense right now with the

1751
01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:22,320
Speaker 1: offensive line acquisitions that we've made. So why don't we

1752
01:26:22,439 --> 01:26:25,200
Speaker 1: just look to the draft? Are you guys not hot

1753
01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:27,760
Speaker 1: on this draft? Yes, this is what I've been saying

1754
01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:29,479
Speaker 1: the whole time. It's like, I mean, I you got

1755
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:31,240
Speaker 1: to do some stuff and free agency to round the

1756
01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:33,200
Speaker 1: roster out and the move like Juju is good. But

1757
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:35,400
Speaker 1: if this team is going to get back to where

1758
01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:37,040
Speaker 1: they were at the top of the division, it will

1759
01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:39,720
Speaker 1: come through the draft. It will not come through you know,

1760
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:42,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of splashy free And you got to remember

1761
01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,479
Speaker 1: a good draft is you know, if you know in

1762
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:47,559
Speaker 1: the immediate future is when you get two guys who

1763
01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:51,200
Speaker 1: immediately make an impact. That's a good draft, you know.

1764
01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:53,599
Speaker 1: But that's not going to turn around your team unless

1765
01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:56,240
Speaker 1: it's at the quarterback position. Yeah, and it's not going

1766
01:26:56,320 --> 01:27:01,120
Speaker 1: to be at the quarterback position. So yes, totally looking

1767
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:05,200
Speaker 1: forward to the draft for maybe an impact player or two,

1768
01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:09,280
Speaker 1: but also for building towards the future. Absolutely, it's critical.

1769
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:12,519
Speaker 1: It's critical. You know, how you got into this mess.

1770
01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:15,639
Speaker 1: That's that's how they're setting this thing up, is they're

1771
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,280
Speaker 1: setting this thing up so that when they get to

1772
01:27:17,360 --> 01:27:19,960
Speaker 1: the draft, they get on the clock at fourteen in

1773
01:27:20,040 --> 01:27:22,880
Speaker 1: the first round, they are not forced to take a

1774
01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:26,599
Speaker 1: particular position. They can look at it and say, who's

1775
01:27:26,600 --> 01:27:29,439
Speaker 1: our best player on the board, and we're gonna take

1776
01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:31,720
Speaker 1: that guy. Now, do I think position matters yet? Like,

1777
01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:33,439
Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna take a running back, right,

1778
01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:36,800
Speaker 1: but they're gonna look at it and say, who's you know,

1779
01:27:37,200 --> 01:27:39,080
Speaker 1: we have these four or five positions that we want

1780
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,240
Speaker 1: to hit on in the first three rounds, four rounds,

1781
01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:44,960
Speaker 1: who's the best guy that we have rated here? I

1782
01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:47,639
Speaker 1: think last year they got into the into a position

1783
01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:50,000
Speaker 1: in the off season by trading Shack Mason and not

1784
01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:52,120
Speaker 1: matching the deal for Ted Carriss where they had to

1785
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,759
Speaker 1: take a guard and they were they were back against

1786
01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:57,120
Speaker 1: the wall at that position, and that's how you get

1787
01:27:57,200 --> 01:27:59,519
Speaker 1: the cold, strange pick. Now, the way that they've set

1788
01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:02,080
Speaker 1: it up, they don't run into that situation. So, yeah,

1789
01:28:02,240 --> 01:28:04,680
Speaker 1: the callers said, the draft is gonna be everything, but

1790
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:06,559
Speaker 1: we have six more weeks to go to the draft,

1791
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,960
Speaker 1: and I don't think the patients meter is right And

1792
01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:12,600
Speaker 1: just highlight highlight the last two draft classes too. Like

1793
01:28:12,680 --> 01:28:15,160
Speaker 1: those guys need to all continue to take steps forward.

1794
01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:17,600
Speaker 1: Josh Uch needs to take a little bit of a

1795
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,479
Speaker 1: step forward, maybe round out his game a little bit,

1796
01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:21,880
Speaker 1: you know, Marcus Jones needs to like take that step

1797
01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:24,280
Speaker 1: to be the full time slot corner. You know. They

1798
01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:26,160
Speaker 1: need to figure out a way to replace what Devin

1799
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:28,519
Speaker 1: mccordy did. You know, in piece meal. It's not going

1800
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,479
Speaker 1: to be one guy. So it's just there's a lot

1801
01:28:30,479 --> 01:28:33,360
Speaker 1: of time left. So I get I get why everybody's anxious.

1802
01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:34,720
Speaker 1: I mean the first few days it was, you know,

1803
01:28:34,920 --> 01:28:36,320
Speaker 1: you want some sexy, you want to come out of

1804
01:28:36,360 --> 01:28:38,679
Speaker 1: the gates with a big haymaker. That sets the tone,

1805
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 1: and it wasn't really what they did. I mean, it

1806
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:41,880
Speaker 1: is true though, you get an email right at the

1807
01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:43,800
Speaker 1: end of the season saying things are going to change,

1808
01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:46,360
Speaker 1: and I think everyone was trying to be patient all

1809
01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:50,679
Speaker 1: last season with you know, an unorthodox way of coaching

1810
01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 1: a team without an offensive coordinator and other things. So

1811
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:57,280
Speaker 1: I think like the frustration is stemming from all of that,

1812
01:28:57,520 --> 01:29:02,040
Speaker 1: and it's just, yeah, I'm hard, that's not Let's not

1813
01:29:02,439 --> 01:29:06,280
Speaker 1: underestimate or undervalue the move to bring in Bill O'Brien,

1814
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, when's the last time that Bill that Bill

1815
01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:15,280
Speaker 1: basically fired a coordinator? Yeah, I mean, all they all

1816
01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:18,439
Speaker 1: move on to better things or retire or whatever. But

1817
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:22,759
Speaker 1: when's the last time that Bill just simply relieved somebody

1818
01:29:22,800 --> 01:29:26,560
Speaker 1: of their duties. I don't google that googe is the

1819
01:29:26,600 --> 01:29:29,479
Speaker 1: only means. But he wasn't a coordinate. Yeah, and he also,

1820
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:31,800
Speaker 1: I mean, they had Dante coming out of retirement, so

1821
01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:33,720
Speaker 1: r peas a little bit. Did they feel like they

1822
01:29:33,800 --> 01:29:35,639
Speaker 1: kind of try to get out of peas to that? Yeah,

1823
01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:38,360
Speaker 1: that one fizzled out for sure. Yeah, okay, but I

1824
01:29:38,479 --> 01:29:40,559
Speaker 1: thought that he was kind of temporary when he came.

1825
01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, okay, I don't know. But but it doesn't

1826
01:29:43,320 --> 01:29:45,559
Speaker 1: be surprised. I mean, I gotta be honest, Like, as

1827
01:29:45,600 --> 01:29:47,559
Speaker 1: bad as last year was and as much as all

1828
01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:50,439
Speaker 1: the offensive stuff was confirmed, I'm still surprised that Matt

1829
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:54,360
Speaker 1: Patricia is just out, like completely. I really didn't see

1830
01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:56,760
Speaker 1: that coming. So I do think it's it's significant. Yeah,

1831
01:29:57,360 --> 01:30:01,320
Speaker 1: let's go to Sean and Vancouver. What's up Sean? Hey? Everyone,

1832
01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:05,040
Speaker 1: I doubt mister Meyers still listening, but we all love

1833
01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:08,280
Speaker 1: Raiders Unfiltered Decided, are you? Yeah? I have to go

1834
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:10,000
Speaker 1: to that I don't think I will, but you know,

1835
01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:13,120
Speaker 1: he was the best Jacob was the best receiver as

1836
01:30:13,160 --> 01:30:15,880
Speaker 1: the Patriots had the last three seasons. And I think

1837
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:17,800
Speaker 1: moving to the Raiders is going to be good for

1838
01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:19,800
Speaker 1: him because he has the Vontams there. He's not going

1839
01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:23,640
Speaker 1: to be blanketed on every obvious passing down, so I

1840
01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:26,720
Speaker 1: could see him getting me over a thousand yards. Maybe

1841
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:30,200
Speaker 1: it's not going to be fourteen hundred and one hundred

1842
01:30:30,280 --> 01:30:32,600
Speaker 1: eleven catches, but I think he's going to have a

1843
01:30:32,680 --> 01:30:34,720
Speaker 1: good year. And but this is this is what brings

1844
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:37,880
Speaker 1: us back to the Patriots, and we're still waiting Juju.

1845
01:30:38,240 --> 01:30:42,559
Speaker 1: I'm still I'm kind of happy. I think he's similar

1846
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:45,320
Speaker 1: to Myers. Maybe he has a higher ceiling and a

1847
01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:48,400
Speaker 1: better yacht. But if we need we need something else.

1848
01:30:48,479 --> 01:30:50,760
Speaker 1: We need that number one and that's that's what I'm

1849
01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:53,559
Speaker 1: waiting for, and we'll hopefully get that. Yeah, yeah, all right,

1850
01:30:53,640 --> 01:30:57,360
Speaker 1: thanks Sean. Um John writes in says I am not

1851
01:30:57,600 --> 01:31:00,280
Speaker 1: mad at Evan. Thank you. I agree that, I agree

1852
01:31:00,280 --> 01:31:02,360
Speaker 1: that Juju is an upgrade, but we still need a

1853
01:31:02,560 --> 01:31:07,439
Speaker 1: wr one. I like the signing, but we still miss Myers. Yeah,

1854
01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:11,080
Speaker 1: so there's just no nobody's disputing that they can't be

1855
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:13,439
Speaker 1: done with Juju. And I think one thing that I

1856
01:31:13,479 --> 01:31:16,320
Speaker 1: would definitely if we get to the again, if we

1857
01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:18,880
Speaker 1: get to that Tuesday show after the draft and they're

1858
01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:22,000
Speaker 1: just expecting Taekwon Thornton to take a leap and they

1859
01:31:22,120 --> 01:31:24,960
Speaker 1: run it back with everybody else just plus Juju, then

1860
01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be happy, Like I'm not going

1861
01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:29,680
Speaker 1: to be satisfied with that. So that's the one thing

1862
01:31:29,720 --> 01:31:32,400
Speaker 1: that I'm concerned about is that you talk about who

1863
01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:35,200
Speaker 1: would be a nice compliment next to Juju. A speed

1864
01:31:35,320 --> 01:31:38,400
Speaker 1: guy like Taekwon Thornton in theory would be the right player.

1865
01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:40,840
Speaker 1: And I am a little bit concerned that they think

1866
01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:43,320
Speaker 1: that Taekwon is just going to be that guy. I

1867
01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,759
Speaker 1: just didn't see that enough evidence from his rookie season

1868
01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:49,280
Speaker 1: that he can be that guy. Tim our friend from

1869
01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:53,679
Speaker 1: Duncan writes in I'm hearing all the negative feedback Evan

1870
01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:55,439
Speaker 1: is receiving, and I want to say I am in

1871
01:31:55,520 --> 01:31:58,679
Speaker 1: agreement with him. I like Jacobe, but I believe Juju

1872
01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:01,479
Speaker 1: will be an improvement over him, and maybe he won't

1873
01:32:01,479 --> 01:32:03,679
Speaker 1: throw it to the other team and eliminate the playoffs.

1874
01:32:04,200 --> 01:32:08,800
Speaker 1: Pages from the playoffs. That Wow, that was who was

1875
01:32:08,840 --> 01:32:15,799
Speaker 1: giving you hate? I'm very confused. Oh the emails are yeah,

1876
01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:17,800
Speaker 1: I got it. I was like, I don't know where

1877
01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:19,640
Speaker 1: you're talking coming on him hard. I mean, I did

1878
01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:22,280
Speaker 1: give you grief about the Josh Allen thing. But outside

1879
01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:25,679
Speaker 1: of that, I love that you're taking all the arrows

1880
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:28,400
Speaker 1: because I've been in completely lockstep with you about I

1881
01:32:28,439 --> 01:32:31,800
Speaker 1: think maybe I'm just I just I get annoyed this

1882
01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:34,600
Speaker 1: time of year, as you all can probably tell, I

1883
01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:38,240
Speaker 1: get I get annoyed because people are so impatient. Like

1884
01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:43,080
Speaker 1: this roster building is a long process. Okay, there's checkpoints

1885
01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:45,679
Speaker 1: throughout the season, the off season. You have the start

1886
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:48,680
Speaker 1: of free agency, Then you have the draft, Then you

1887
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:52,200
Speaker 1: have training camp, and there's usually moves, you know, roster

1888
01:32:52,320 --> 01:32:54,599
Speaker 1: cutdowns and that type of stuff. Usually there's some more

1889
01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:57,000
Speaker 1: player movement at that point. Then you have the trade

1890
01:32:57,040 --> 01:33:00,519
Speaker 1: deadline during the season. Like you're different, we are at

1891
01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:04,960
Speaker 1: step one of I would say, really three steps of

1892
01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:09,680
Speaker 1: true player movement, which obviously the draft and the end

1893
01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 1: of training camp being the other one. Just give it

1894
01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:16,040
Speaker 1: some time, like, give him some time. If they don't

1895
01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:18,479
Speaker 1: do anything, then we can all be up in arms.

1896
01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:20,880
Speaker 1: But right now, everybody, like Mike said earlier in the show,

1897
01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:23,000
Speaker 1: wants to win the Super Bowl in the first four

1898
01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:26,680
Speaker 1: days of free agency. That's not how it works. I think.

1899
01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:30,120
Speaker 1: I think everyone has that mentality because of the Rams

1900
01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:32,720
Speaker 1: and how they just stacked like and they won the

1901
01:33:32,760 --> 01:33:35,680
Speaker 1: super Bowl. But I get where they are now, I know,

1902
01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:38,479
Speaker 1: but they did. They did what they whatever they could

1903
01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:40,400
Speaker 1: to get the guys there, and they won the Super Bowl.

1904
01:33:40,439 --> 01:33:42,840
Speaker 1: And so I think that when you see they went

1905
01:33:42,880 --> 01:33:45,800
Speaker 1: all in, they literally did again cap space where you're

1906
01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:48,560
Speaker 1: like it doesn't exist. But I think that's why. And

1907
01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:50,640
Speaker 1: I think you see other teams, I guess, well, the

1908
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:54,400
Speaker 1: Panthers they really needed to get that even steps different

1909
01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:58,080
Speaker 1: with the Rams. Ramsey was a trade deadline acquisition. Odell

1910
01:33:58,160 --> 01:34:00,760
Speaker 1: was released mid season by Cleveland and signed with LA

1911
01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:04,679
Speaker 1: after that, so they still kept adding players that made

1912
01:34:04,800 --> 01:34:08,240
Speaker 1: huge dividends for them in the playoffs. So they weren't done.

1913
01:34:08,320 --> 01:34:11,439
Speaker 1: Like they didn't just get Matthew Stafford in February. I

1914
01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:13,560
Speaker 1: think that trade went down early and then they're just like,

1915
01:34:13,640 --> 01:34:15,320
Speaker 1: all right, cool, yeah, see you in the super Bowl.

1916
01:34:15,439 --> 01:34:17,560
Speaker 1: Like that. You know, they kept on adding players and

1917
01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:19,720
Speaker 1: that's what good teams do. Yeah, and I think that's

1918
01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:22,439
Speaker 1: what they want. They want the Patriots to keep adding

1919
01:34:22,479 --> 01:34:24,880
Speaker 1: players like the forty nine ers continue to add players.

1920
01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously they had some serious quarterback issues later

1921
01:34:27,880 --> 01:34:30,120
Speaker 1: on that they weren't planning, Like you can't plan for

1922
01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:32,600
Speaker 1: those things. But I think they want the Patriots to

1923
01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:36,040
Speaker 1: become that team. They will take those risks that they

1924
01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:38,920
Speaker 1: want the Patriots to go and get I get that,

1925
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:41,599
Speaker 1: but you gotta give it some time to to let

1926
01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:44,559
Speaker 1: it materialize. The market is still you know, they really

1927
01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:47,000
Speaker 1: haven't had a tight end that's even signed anywhere yet.

1928
01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:50,200
Speaker 1: Juju and Jacoby Myers are. I think Paris Campbell just

1929
01:34:50,240 --> 01:34:52,040
Speaker 1: signed with the Giants, and I think that him in

1930
01:34:52,160 --> 01:34:55,799
Speaker 1: hardy year in Buffalo. We're starting to see some movement

1931
01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:58,080
Speaker 1: in the wide receiver market, but not not a ton.

1932
01:34:58,560 --> 01:35:00,280
Speaker 1: I also think you want to see the page it's

1933
01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:02,479
Speaker 1: get away from the Patriot way, and like I think

1934
01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:04,479
Speaker 1: that you have to be able to adapt and you

1935
01:35:04,560 --> 01:35:05,960
Speaker 1: have to be able to change with the times, Like

1936
01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:07,600
Speaker 1: you can't just do everything the way you've been. I

1937
01:35:07,640 --> 01:35:10,240
Speaker 1: don't think they signed you do five years ago. I

1938
01:35:10,720 --> 01:35:13,000
Speaker 1: just don't think that that's that's a move. I just

1939
01:35:13,160 --> 01:35:14,800
Speaker 1: I just can't get over though, like they did this

1940
01:35:14,880 --> 01:35:17,240
Speaker 1: and two years ago, like it went crazy and free agency,

1941
01:35:17,320 --> 01:35:18,680
Speaker 1: like you know we're talking about they need to change

1942
01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:20,160
Speaker 1: it up, like they change it up two years ago.

1943
01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:25,560
Speaker 1: But those exactly like every rebuilding or are we just

1944
01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:27,720
Speaker 1: trying to patch and like win again and be a

1945
01:35:27,800 --> 01:35:33,840
Speaker 1: top tier? So how would you rebuild a team? Do

1946
01:35:33,880 --> 01:35:35,720
Speaker 1: you think the only how do you rebuild a team

1947
01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:39,400
Speaker 1: is by is like burning down start from scratch and

1948
01:35:39,600 --> 01:35:40,760
Speaker 1: but don't you feel like that's what they kind of

1949
01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:42,200
Speaker 1: did in twenty twenty week. I don't think we can

1950
01:35:42,280 --> 01:35:43,680
Speaker 1: do that. I think we have a rabid fan base.

1951
01:35:43,720 --> 01:35:45,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to see that happen. I don't want

1952
01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,439
Speaker 1: to see us tanking. But it's just that that's why

1953
01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:50,200
Speaker 1: people are so anxious and there's so much angst because

1954
01:35:50,240 --> 01:35:52,360
Speaker 1: it's like what are we what? I but also think

1955
01:35:52,400 --> 01:35:54,599
Speaker 1: all that money that was spent, None of those guys

1956
01:35:54,640 --> 01:35:56,800
Speaker 1: I like would have probably spent that much money for it,

1957
01:35:56,840 --> 01:35:58,240
Speaker 1: Like I feel like they were kind of off brands,

1958
01:35:58,280 --> 01:36:02,519
Speaker 1: like they weren't. They weren't like why johnath Smith, why?

1959
01:36:02,880 --> 01:36:08,160
Speaker 1: Like I think there's just those contract I mean, it

1960
01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:10,320
Speaker 1: wasn't just about like the bad contract it was just like,

1961
01:36:10,960 --> 01:36:12,400
Speaker 1: but it's just like just one but those are the

1962
01:36:12,479 --> 01:36:14,559
Speaker 1: most out at the time, that had they done those

1963
01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:17,360
Speaker 1: on Tuesday this week, that the people would not be

1964
01:36:17,560 --> 01:36:19,840
Speaker 1: have the torches out, you know. And the reality of

1965
01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:22,080
Speaker 1: that situation though, was that, yes, we made some free

1966
01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:24,360
Speaker 1: agency splashes, how much difference is it gonna make a

1967
01:36:24,479 --> 01:36:26,880
Speaker 1: little A little like some of these guys will work out, okay,

1968
01:36:27,560 --> 01:36:29,320
Speaker 1: are not going to work out. So I just I

1969
01:36:29,439 --> 01:36:31,320
Speaker 1: just think it's a little bit of a cautionary tale

1970
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:32,760
Speaker 1: to be like, all right, maybe I'm not going to

1971
01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:35,080
Speaker 1: lose my mind that we didn't reproduce twenty twenty one

1972
01:36:35,120 --> 01:36:37,519
Speaker 1: because I saw how that worked out. Like again, like

1973
01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:39,960
Speaker 1: who are we? I think we're a team that needs

1974
01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:42,840
Speaker 1: to be build through the draft and needs to do

1975
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:44,600
Speaker 1: it the right way. The way they got into this

1976
01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:47,000
Speaker 1: was they missed on important draft picks, too many, too

1977
01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:48,680
Speaker 1: many high round draft picks at the end of Tom

1978
01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:51,559
Speaker 1: Brady's career, you know, mid midway twenty ten. They picked

1979
01:36:51,600 --> 01:36:54,880
Speaker 1: up Edmond Edelman, they picked up Gronkowski. They found generational

1980
01:36:54,920 --> 01:36:57,280
Speaker 1: players Dante hide Tower, you know, guys that would come

1981
01:36:57,320 --> 01:36:59,160
Speaker 1: in and be part of the championships. They didn't find

1982
01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:02,080
Speaker 1: those guys in twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen.

1983
01:37:02,600 --> 01:37:04,240
Speaker 1: They have to find those guys again. They have to

1984
01:37:04,320 --> 01:37:06,360
Speaker 1: find stars, and they come all in the draft. You

1985
01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:08,080
Speaker 1: mentioned the forty nineteen Fred Warner. What was he a

1986
01:37:08,120 --> 01:37:10,560
Speaker 1: fifth round pick? I mean they exist, like guys like

1987
01:37:10,760 --> 01:37:12,920
Speaker 1: that do exist. I know it's hard, you can't count

1988
01:37:12,960 --> 01:37:14,920
Speaker 1: on it, but you have to draft well, and I

1989
01:37:15,200 --> 01:37:16,920
Speaker 1: just I don't see any other way back to the

1990
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:20,240
Speaker 1: top than that. Then nailing these drafts, including drafting well,

1991
01:37:20,320 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 1: you can't trade back like you need to like stay

1992
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:25,200
Speaker 1: or trade up. I mean, I think there's an argument

1993
01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:27,479
Speaker 1: you made that you need pure talent that usually just

1994
01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:29,760
Speaker 1: comes at the top. But but you know, depending you

1995
01:37:29,840 --> 01:37:32,800
Speaker 1: get to fourteen and you're like, I don't know, I

1996
01:37:32,840 --> 01:37:35,200
Speaker 1: don't love the like, you know, trade back, but don't

1997
01:37:35,240 --> 01:37:37,599
Speaker 1: pick a guard. But hell, you know, could be instead

1998
01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:40,240
Speaker 1: of fourteen, can we pick somebody at twenty seven and

1999
01:37:40,360 --> 01:37:42,200
Speaker 1: we pick up something in the forty two? You know,

2000
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:44,800
Speaker 1: I hate to keep apart pining on that Fred, but

2001
01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:49,320
Speaker 1: like that, No, no, no, you're you're pitching in the

2002
01:37:49,400 --> 01:37:52,679
Speaker 1: choir like that. That pick just set this whole thing back.

2003
01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:55,760
Speaker 1: It set this whole thing back at least a year.

2004
01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:59,080
Speaker 1: I will never forget. Like when we were live in

2005
01:37:59,200 --> 01:38:01,280
Speaker 1: the stadium for that show, when that pick was made,

2006
01:38:01,360 --> 01:38:03,040
Speaker 1: you could hear a pen drop in the room. Yeah,

2007
01:38:03,160 --> 01:38:09,799
Speaker 1: pen drop. Poor guy, he said to you, ruined our team.

2008
01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:13,960
Speaker 1: He's awesome, Joe Wrightson, he says, I feel like this

2009
01:38:14,120 --> 01:38:16,880
Speaker 1: is pretty simple. If Juju is the number one receiver,

2010
01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:20,519
Speaker 1: this sucks. No, right, you're right, you're right, but he's not.

2011
01:38:21,000 --> 01:38:22,720
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if if if they think that

2012
01:38:22,800 --> 01:38:25,479
Speaker 1: Juju smith User is gonna like swapping Jacoby for him,

2013
01:38:25,520 --> 01:38:27,600
Speaker 1: and then we run it back with the Sandy, you

2014
01:38:27,720 --> 01:38:30,000
Speaker 1: might end up being but he can't be that. That's

2015
01:38:30,400 --> 01:38:33,320
Speaker 1: that's not that's not plan A. Let me put it

2016
01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:36,400
Speaker 1: to that one, right, Eric from Amherst Burg. Can we

2017
01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:39,639
Speaker 1: talk about Juju being Josh Gordon two point zero one

2018
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:42,800
Speaker 1: great season four years ago, who's been with guys like

2019
01:38:42,920 --> 01:38:45,639
Speaker 1: a B and Kelsey taking the pressure off what he's

2020
01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:48,680
Speaker 1: gonna do with this cast. We know, we know what

2021
01:38:48,840 --> 01:38:51,800
Speaker 1: Jacobe gave us and had the chemistry with Mac and

2022
01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:54,840
Speaker 1: was producing. Juju was gonna put up the same numbers

2023
01:38:54,880 --> 01:38:58,880
Speaker 1: as Myers. Okay, well, this is nothing like Josh Gordon.

2024
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:00,799
Speaker 1: So that was and they're a lot of other issues

2025
01:39:00,840 --> 01:39:02,479
Speaker 1: going on with with Josh Gordon, and I mean he

2026
01:39:02,560 --> 01:39:05,240
Speaker 1: just wasn't even the same player even close. I mean,

2027
01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:07,400
Speaker 1: just go back and watch Juju in the Super Bowl,

2028
01:39:07,439 --> 01:39:09,439
Speaker 1: watch him with Kansas City, like he can still play.

2029
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:12,599
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna like rewind to something we talked about

2030
01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:17,000
Speaker 1: speaking of people complimenting each other. Look at this picture.

2031
01:39:17,200 --> 01:39:19,880
Speaker 1: I saw this, Yeah, Neil shared Jack Jones and Juju

2032
01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 1: at at USC Trojans wild Don't Don't Don't. Did you

2033
01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:27,160
Speaker 1: go to a lot of games at the Colt? I

2034
01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:28,439
Speaker 1: went to a couple. I had a friend who was

2035
01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:30,560
Speaker 1: a Washington State fan, so he just got dragged to that.

2036
01:39:32,080 --> 01:39:36,200
Speaker 1: Actually go Yeah. So the best game that I went

2037
01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:40,360
Speaker 1: to was Penn State USC Rose Bowl. It was dartled

2038
01:39:40,680 --> 01:39:43,720
Speaker 1: against se Quon and it was like one of the

2039
01:39:43,760 --> 01:39:46,760
Speaker 1: best football games I've seen live. They just went toe

2040
01:39:46,880 --> 01:39:50,280
Speaker 1: to toe, four corners, just lighting up the scoreboard back

2041
01:39:50,320 --> 01:39:53,000
Speaker 1: and forth. It was great. USC ended up winning the game.

2042
01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:55,200
Speaker 1: But the closest I got to a Rose Bowl was

2043
01:39:55,240 --> 01:39:58,920
Speaker 1: that I had to like take my boss's sons USC

2044
01:39:59,160 --> 01:40:02,200
Speaker 1: Jersey and meet them somewhere so that they could go

2045
01:40:02,280 --> 01:40:05,280
Speaker 1: to the Vince Young Matt Liner epic game of the

2046
01:40:05,560 --> 01:40:08,519
Speaker 1: century that was that That Rose Bowl. Yeah, but that's

2047
01:40:08,520 --> 01:40:11,000
Speaker 1: another great spot too. They're nice too, too nice. I

2048
01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:12,800
Speaker 1: mean they're old, but you can feel kind of the

2049
01:40:12,840 --> 01:40:16,040
Speaker 1: full policum is fun too. But don't don't get lost

2050
01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:20,760
Speaker 1: walking around the area around the policum. That's too Uh.

2051
01:40:21,200 --> 01:40:23,880
Speaker 1: Let's see Matt and Manchester UK. I said. I just

2052
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:27,639
Speaker 1: want to say, let's not confuse Juju's potential bad Juju

2053
01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:31,639
Speaker 1: as a media social media guy with his football skills.

2054
01:40:32,040 --> 01:40:35,200
Speaker 1: Juju is a businessman who was into digital content, who's

2055
01:40:35,200 --> 01:40:39,360
Speaker 1: setting up for his career after football. Let's judge him

2056
01:40:39,439 --> 01:40:42,120
Speaker 1: on his football. What I will say is, I'm not

2057
01:40:42,240 --> 01:40:45,760
Speaker 1: sure if Bill will understand Juju's presence in clear love

2058
01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:50,479
Speaker 1: and addiction of social media snap face whatever. I mean,

2059
01:40:50,640 --> 01:40:52,400
Speaker 1: you have to adjust with the times, like I just

2060
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:54,600
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think that that Bill is this.

2061
01:40:54,920 --> 01:40:56,640
Speaker 1: You know, no one can be on social media like

2062
01:40:56,760 --> 01:40:59,600
Speaker 1: get delete your ticktok, like you have to evolve in

2063
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:01,640
Speaker 1: that record ard And you know, as Tamara said, I

2064
01:41:01,680 --> 01:41:04,679
Speaker 1: mean there's you know, bigger points of evolving in terms

2065
01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:07,360
Speaker 1: of football stuff. But with that stuff, everybody's on it, Like,

2066
01:41:07,439 --> 01:41:09,200
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do. You're gonna have employees come

2067
01:41:09,240 --> 01:41:10,880
Speaker 1: in and you can't be on soci just gonna start

2068
01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:13,640
Speaker 1: referring to him as like player, a player because I

2069
01:41:13,720 --> 01:41:15,880
Speaker 1: think his name it really does. It comes with this,

2070
01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:19,639
Speaker 1: this all this extra baggage of JSS and JSM. We'll

2071
01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:22,719
Speaker 1: get to TikTok and like all this like other stuff

2072
01:41:22,760 --> 01:41:25,240
Speaker 1: off the field that everybody keeps harping on, Like this

2073
01:41:25,439 --> 01:41:27,840
Speaker 1: is another pet peeve of mine. As you all know,

2074
01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:29,880
Speaker 1: this is not about football, Like you're not even talking

2075
01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:32,040
Speaker 1: about football. You're talking about how you don't like that

2076
01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:34,560
Speaker 1: the guy makes TikTok is on TikTok, Like what is this?

2077
01:41:34,720 --> 01:41:36,720
Speaker 1: What does he do on TikTok? I gotta I gotta

2078
01:41:36,720 --> 01:41:38,360
Speaker 1: follow him, I gotta check. I think we should sign

2079
01:41:38,400 --> 01:41:40,120
Speaker 1: o b J and then make it our goal to

2080
01:41:40,200 --> 01:41:42,280
Speaker 1: have all our offensive weapons have three names. Oh, I

2081
01:41:42,280 --> 01:41:44,479
Speaker 1: would love it. From a writing standpoint, I'm gonna get

2086
01:41:54,640 --> 01:41:58,759
Speaker 1: Patriots fan of the world says, um, you know, regarding

2087
01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:01,040
Speaker 1: how the Patriots would do business in the offseason, it

2088
01:42:01,080 --> 01:42:04,240
Speaker 1: says there's a difference between good business and always setting

2089
01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:07,920
Speaker 1: the floor in terms of contract offers. Oh, well, they

2090

01:42:22,400 --> 01:42:29,759
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it's Teren. What is it, Terence? Terrence? Okay, yeah, Terrence.

2095
01:42:30,200 --> 01:42:33,679
Speaker 1: UM for one, thank you for having me. I listened

2096
01:42:33,680 --> 01:42:35,840
Speaker 1: to you guys for the past couple of years now,

2097
01:42:35,960 --> 01:42:38,160
Speaker 1: and it's kind of like my first time. But thank

2098
01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 1: you UM too. I feel like we're in the same

2099
01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,680
Speaker 1: position where we were last year, where we have to

2100
01:42:44,760 --> 01:42:49,200
Speaker 1: sit back and watch. UM. I do like the move.

2101
01:42:49,400 --> 01:42:53,439
Speaker 1: I consider it like a D plus from UM. Uh.

2102
01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:59,760
Speaker 1: Sorry to Kobe Myers, but UM is definitely a sit

2103
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:02,640
Speaker 1: I can you know, wait type of move. We are

2104
01:43:02,720 --> 01:43:07,800
Speaker 1: in a better position coaches wise, UM, We're just really

2105
01:43:07,840 --> 01:43:10,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to sit back and wait. Uh. I do

2106
01:43:10,920 --> 01:43:13,479
Speaker 1: see a lot more explosiveness when it does come to

2107
01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:18,120
Speaker 1: the offense, but I do also kind of get concerns

2108
01:43:18,200 --> 01:43:22,200
Speaker 1: with the defense as well, because a big president is

2109
01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:28,599
Speaker 1: lost with uh um, I'm sorry, Devin mccordy not there

2110
01:43:29,040 --> 01:43:32,519
Speaker 1: so um and we still have Matthews later as a

2111
01:43:33,840 --> 01:43:36,760
Speaker 1: you know, veteran. But on the defensive side, I do

2112
01:43:36,960 --> 01:43:40,479
Speaker 1: kind of brace some type of concerning That's it, all right,

2113
01:43:40,640 --> 01:43:44,800
Speaker 1: Thanks Aaron's for the call. Let's go to um. I'm

2114
01:43:44,840 --> 01:43:54,240
Speaker 1: not Michael in South Carolina. What's up, Michael, Michael, Michael, Michael, Hello, Michael.

2115
01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:57,240
Speaker 1: I think I think a lot of this today. Yeah, Quiet,

2116
01:43:57,680 --> 01:43:59,120
Speaker 1: I think the Juju thing is a good thing to

2117
01:43:59,200 --> 01:44:01,639
Speaker 1: keep in the back pocket of How are they gonna

2118
01:44:01,720 --> 01:44:06,280
Speaker 1: get guys, Mike, nobody wants to play here like Juju.

2119
01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:09,479
Speaker 1: Juju picked to play with the Patriots for more money

2120
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:12,320
Speaker 1: to overplay. We want the locker room guy now, Mike.

2121
01:44:12,640 --> 01:44:15,960
Speaker 1: We want the scheme because can the homegrown town. Cody

2122
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:19,439
Speaker 1: in Indiana says, I'm disgusted that the team hasn't gone

2123
01:44:19,439 --> 01:44:23,280
Speaker 1: and traded for Patrick Mahomes, George Kittle, and t J. Watt.

2124
01:44:24,240 --> 01:44:27,400
Speaker 1: What are we doing? Good grief? I finally agree with Paul.

2125
01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,240
Speaker 1: We are such a winey fan base. I personally like

2126
01:44:30,439 --> 01:44:33,400
Speaker 1: the Juju deal. I think he's an upgrade who provides

2127
01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:36,960
Speaker 1: more playmaking ability than Jacoby. I also would say Juju

2128
01:44:37,120 --> 01:44:39,240
Speaker 1: is not enough and we still need to get a

2129
01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:43,360
Speaker 1: true wide receiver one. But she's callers, calm down, It's

2130
01:44:43,439 --> 01:44:47,320
Speaker 1: March sixteen, shelax. Everyone's on the same page. Some people

2131
01:44:47,360 --> 01:44:49,800
Speaker 1: are just more animated than others. You know what I

2132
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:54,760
Speaker 1: think about And you know what, it's fine. I'm being

2133
01:44:54,800 --> 01:44:57,320
Speaker 1: a fine like a long time ago. I just accepted that, like,

2134
01:44:57,479 --> 01:44:59,800
Speaker 1: this is sports, and anyone can watch it and do

2135
01:45:00,200 --> 01:45:01,400
Speaker 1: the way they want to do it. And if you

2136
01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:03,519
Speaker 1: want to bitch about what the team is or isn't doing,

2137
01:45:03,920 --> 01:45:05,400
Speaker 1: go for it. And if you want to be overly

2138
01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:07,960
Speaker 1: positive about the go for it. Like it just it

2139
01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:10,200
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It's sports, Like it's just supposed to be fun.

2140
01:45:10,320 --> 01:45:13,439
Speaker 1: Do it your own way. Mike writes in No Paul,

2141
01:45:13,560 --> 01:45:19,360
Speaker 1: thank god, Evan and Juice are spot on, big upgrade

2142
01:45:19,360 --> 01:45:22,840
Speaker 1: with Juju. It's way too early to start whining. Yeah,

2143
01:45:23,240 --> 01:45:25,479
Speaker 1: I mean it's still Thursday. I mean, like you realize

2144
01:45:25,560 --> 01:45:29,280
Speaker 1: by like through like I mean, you know and honestly

2145
01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:31,240
Speaker 1: like not that the weekend is a deadline. But you

2146
01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:34,040
Speaker 1: know Friday, it's news dump time, and all of a sudden,

2147
01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:36,519
Speaker 1: Oh look seven o'clock tomorrow night. Look what they did.

2148
01:45:36,960 --> 01:45:39,599
Speaker 1: L from Wisconsin says Mike is one hundred percent correct.

2149
01:45:39,640 --> 01:45:41,800
Speaker 1: Teams need to be built through the draft. Too bad,

2150
01:45:41,840 --> 01:45:45,880
Speaker 1: we have a guy who can't draft. You gotta get

2151
01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:50,160
Speaker 1: over it. That's a cheap shot. Uh. Joey writes in

2152
01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:53,200
Speaker 1: I understand why people are upset about not keeping Myers,

2153
01:45:53,320 --> 01:45:56,160
Speaker 1: but I also think it's delusional to say that it

2154
01:45:56,280 --> 01:45:58,680
Speaker 1: was a bad move. We got Juju for less than

2155
01:45:58,760 --> 01:46:01,599
Speaker 1: the Raiders got Myers. He's way better after the catch.

2156
01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:04,639
Speaker 1: I love Myers, and I think it's unfortunate we couldn't

2157
01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:07,559
Speaker 1: retain a guy who truly pulled himself up through the ranks.

2158
01:46:07,640 --> 01:46:11,960
Speaker 1: But the everyone, but the everyone loves the forty nine ers,

2159
01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:14,800
Speaker 1: and they put a tremendous amount of value on Yak.

2160
01:46:15,280 --> 01:46:19,320
Speaker 1: Let's get the wide receiver one and have a good season. Okay,

2161
01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean go ahead. I don't know, no, I just

2162
01:46:22,479 --> 01:46:24,439
Speaker 1: gonna say that. You know, I texted you that clip

2163
01:46:24,479 --> 01:46:26,479
Speaker 1: when we were going back and forth. You texted me

2164
01:46:26,520 --> 01:46:32,920
Speaker 1: the whipper. Yeah this is that that's that's my medical text.

2165
01:46:33,080 --> 01:46:35,240
Speaker 1: And then I texted you the clip of him taking

2166
01:46:35,280 --> 01:46:39,000
Speaker 1: that slant like forty five yards against Buffalo where he

2167
01:46:39,120 --> 01:46:41,320
Speaker 1: breaks the tackle. You know, he gets a little bit

2168
01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:43,960
Speaker 1: loose on the line of scrimmage, catches the slant and

2169
01:46:44,080 --> 01:46:46,960
Speaker 1: stride breaks Jordan Poyer's tackle in the middle of the

2170
01:46:47,040 --> 01:46:50,120
Speaker 1: field and then breaks it down for another forty forty

2171
01:46:50,160 --> 01:46:53,679
Speaker 1: five yards and that Jacoby is just not making that play,

2172
01:46:53,960 --> 01:46:56,800
Speaker 1: Like I'm sorry, He's just not making that play. And

2173
01:46:56,920 --> 01:46:59,080
Speaker 1: those are the types of plays that in this offense,

2174
01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:02,679
Speaker 1: especially with this quarterback who you're not going to see

2175
01:47:02,720 --> 01:47:05,720
Speaker 1: bombs away with with Mac's success. One of the things though,

2176
01:47:05,880 --> 01:47:08,880
Speaker 1: I saw one of the compilations for Juju yesterday and

2177
01:47:08,960 --> 01:47:13,280
Speaker 1: it was all Patrick Mahomes off platform there is I

2178
01:47:13,320 --> 01:47:15,040
Speaker 1: think it's a good ain't gonna happen? No, I think

2179
01:47:15,080 --> 01:47:17,040
Speaker 1: that's a good point. The one that's something I thought too.

2180
01:47:17,160 --> 01:47:19,880
Speaker 1: I thought that too, you know, just totally mean a

2181
01:47:19,920 --> 01:47:21,160
Speaker 1: lot of those ones. And I had the same thing

2182
01:47:21,200 --> 01:47:23,320
Speaker 1: about Agalore with his big season with Derek Carr, where

2183
01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:24,800
Speaker 1: it felt like he's got a lot of plays, but

2184
01:47:24,840 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 1: they're always like lating the down. He just fires it

2185
01:47:27,160 --> 01:47:30,200
Speaker 1: and downfield. So I I that's that's a point. Yeah,

2186
01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:33,120
Speaker 1: there's one. One of his longest touchdown of the year

2187
01:47:33,120 --> 01:47:35,600
Speaker 1: against Buffalo last year. He like spins out of a

2188
01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:38,040
Speaker 1: tackle and two guys run into each other. That play

2189
01:47:38,120 --> 01:47:40,800
Speaker 1: is not happening. But he also didn't play with Big

2190
01:47:40,880 --> 01:47:43,160
Speaker 1: Ben when he was coming just not that good anymore.

2191
01:47:43,240 --> 01:47:45,320
Speaker 1: So like I feel like he has that's an excuse

2192
01:47:45,400 --> 01:47:47,920
Speaker 1: to marry, you know what I'm saying, Like he has

2193
01:47:48,040 --> 01:47:50,960
Speaker 1: played with guys who aren't don't have the skills as

2194
01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:54,120
Speaker 1: you can say the same thing for Jacoby, Like he

2195
01:47:54,280 --> 01:47:56,920
Speaker 1: played with a rookie quarterback and a guy and I'm saying,

2196
01:47:57,040 --> 01:47:58,720
Speaker 1: but I'm saying that Juju can play with both. He

2197
01:47:58,760 --> 01:48:05,360
Speaker 1: can play with deal with someone who's like but I'm saying,

2198
01:48:05,439 --> 01:48:07,960
Speaker 1: like Juju has played in two styles of offense, like

2199
01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:11,240
Speaker 1: one with Big Ben where he was like nowhere, yes,

2200
01:48:11,720 --> 01:48:14,680
Speaker 1: and then one with Mahomes who's making ridiculous. But that's

2201
01:48:14,720 --> 01:48:18,559
Speaker 1: the biggest difference is you look at those those seven

2202
01:48:18,680 --> 01:48:23,559
Speaker 1: yard passes where a guy like Jacobe probably gets seven yards, right,

2203
01:48:23,600 --> 01:48:25,760
Speaker 1: he gets it, but he catches it and it maybe

2204
01:48:25,840 --> 01:48:28,120
Speaker 1: it's third and six and that might move the chains

2205
01:48:28,120 --> 01:48:31,639
Speaker 1: in that situation. But Juju has that ability to take

2206
01:48:31,720 --> 01:48:34,160
Speaker 1: that seven yards and turn it into twenty five. And

2207
01:48:34,320 --> 01:48:36,880
Speaker 1: that's something that I think in that specific role in

2208
01:48:36,960 --> 01:48:40,200
Speaker 1: their offense is needed because you're not going to get

2209
01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:43,960
Speaker 1: more explosive and more dynamic if you're going seven yards

2210
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:46,439
Speaker 1: at a time. Now you have somebody that if he

2211
01:48:46,520 --> 01:48:48,720
Speaker 1: makes a guy miss, all of a sudden, we're in

2212
01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:51,599
Speaker 1: the open field and we're running away with it. They

2213
01:48:51,920 --> 01:48:54,000
Speaker 1: didn't have that in this offense, and they need more

2214
01:48:54,040 --> 01:48:55,920
Speaker 1: of that. I just that's to the bigger point. I

2215
01:48:56,040 --> 01:48:57,599
Speaker 1: just feel like they have no guys that get yack.

2216
01:48:57,680 --> 01:48:59,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's like the whole team. It's like everybody

2217
01:48:59,439 --> 01:49:01,160
Speaker 1: catches the ball and falls down. And that was part

2218
01:49:01,200 --> 01:49:03,200
Speaker 1: of the you know thing I hate about build set.

2219
01:49:03,320 --> 01:49:05,280
Speaker 1: But some of the hope with with Thornton is like,

2220
01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:07,880
Speaker 1: you know, can we have an offense and maybe this

2221
01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:10,360
Speaker 1: is you know, goes to the to the offense last year,

2222
01:49:10,400 --> 01:49:12,240
Speaker 1: but you know, can we hit Thornton and stride on

2223
01:49:12,320 --> 01:49:14,120
Speaker 1: a slant just let him go, you know, like let

2224
01:49:14,200 --> 01:49:16,439
Speaker 1: him do what your buffalo guy thing, or just he's

2225
01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:18,280
Speaker 1: just running over. It's like just run over, race the

2226
01:49:18,320 --> 01:49:19,960
Speaker 1: guy to the sideline. We're gonnait. Get the hash and

2227
01:49:20,040 --> 01:49:21,679
Speaker 1: turn it up. Where do the odds And we'll see

2228
01:49:21,800 --> 01:49:26,400
Speaker 1: Marcus spilling offense again. You'll see him, but they should

2229
01:49:26,520 --> 01:49:29,000
Speaker 1: be counting on that's not fair to him. And I

2230
01:49:29,080 --> 01:49:30,840
Speaker 1: don't think that's two or three plays a game. You

2231
01:49:30,880 --> 01:49:33,400
Speaker 1: should have enough offensive weapons that you don't have to

2232
01:49:33,479 --> 01:49:34,840
Speaker 1: go to that. But I think he's too good and

2233
01:49:34,920 --> 01:49:36,800
Speaker 1: why not, Like you know, I just I'm all for

2234
01:49:37,120 --> 01:49:39,559
Speaker 1: developing Marcus Jones until like one of the most unique

2235
01:49:39,600 --> 01:49:41,960
Speaker 1: and interesting players in the NFL. You know, to your point,

2236
01:49:42,000 --> 01:49:44,320
Speaker 1: and you know, what are we excited about? Exciting about him?

2237
01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:47,200
Speaker 1: Like this could be a legitimate three way football player

2238
01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:50,320
Speaker 1: who contributes, you know, going forward on all downs. Before

2239
01:49:50,360 --> 01:49:52,360
Speaker 1: I go to the next person on the ace ticket

2240
01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:55,040
Speaker 1: hut line, is this is this name? Correct? The person

2241
01:49:55,120 --> 01:49:59,920
Speaker 1: from California? Faith twel Winder? It is? Okay, we'll see

2242
01:50:00,479 --> 01:50:03,080
Speaker 1: uh so tal Wonder in California? Is that right? Did

2243
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:06,559
Speaker 1: I get your first name right? You did? You did? Yes? Okay,

2244
01:50:06,760 --> 01:50:09,760
Speaker 1: that's a that's an unusual first name, but okay, yeah,

2245
01:50:09,800 --> 01:50:11,280
Speaker 1: I've called a few other times, Bred you got my

2246
01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:14,599
Speaker 1: name right every single time, so it's me. We'll remind

2247
01:50:14,680 --> 01:50:19,360
Speaker 1: him next time. So there, Eric, thanks for taking my call. Man.

2248
01:50:19,360 --> 01:50:20,800
Speaker 1: I just wanted to call in. I was listening and

2249
01:50:20,840 --> 01:50:22,880
Speaker 1: I just wanted to show some show some love to Evan.

2250
01:50:22,920 --> 01:50:24,400
Speaker 1: You know, he's be't getting beat up, but I think

2251
01:50:24,439 --> 01:50:27,240
Speaker 1: he's right. I think we've been super spoil wes. Need

2252
01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:29,880
Speaker 1: to relax, calm down, and have some patience. You know.

2253
01:50:30,320 --> 01:50:33,719
Speaker 1: I think Jude was definitely an upgrade over Jacoby. Jacoby

2254
01:50:33,800 --> 01:50:35,880
Speaker 1: was a great locker room guy. But come on, what

2255
01:50:35,960 --> 01:50:37,679
Speaker 1: are we doing here? We want good locker room guys.

2256
01:50:37,720 --> 01:50:40,360
Speaker 1: You guys talked about how these days, just those diva

2257
01:50:40,479 --> 01:50:44,040
Speaker 1: receivers that they are, they're making this big, big kind place, right,

2258
01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:48,479
Speaker 1: you know, a j Brown or DeAndre Hopkins or Devantae

2259
01:50:48,560 --> 01:50:50,120
Speaker 1: ad him. So I think we need to be a

2260
01:50:50,160 --> 01:50:53,240
Speaker 1: little bit more patient. I'm not sure if we're gonna

2261
01:50:53,240 --> 01:50:55,120
Speaker 1: get one of those guys. Maybe hopefully we can't get

2262
01:50:55,200 --> 01:50:59,280
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins or someone else. But I think we've got

2263
01:50:59,360 --> 01:51:01,680
Speaker 1: to be patient and and just just relax a little bit.

2264
01:51:02,000 --> 01:51:04,200
Speaker 1: I know, to Jets to making him move the Dolphins

2265
01:51:04,240 --> 01:51:06,479
Speaker 1: and making them move. Will you owned the division for

2266
01:51:06,560 --> 01:51:08,120
Speaker 1: two decades and I think it will be back. So

2267
01:51:08,680 --> 01:51:11,360
Speaker 1: just have some patients, relax. It's a it's a long

2268
01:51:11,479 --> 01:51:17,200
Speaker 1: term process. Nice Okay, thank you, thanks to win. Someone

2269
01:51:17,360 --> 01:51:21,679
Speaker 1: even killed. Let's go to Ronan in the UK. What's

2270
01:51:21,760 --> 01:51:24,600
Speaker 1: up Ronan? My name is Bob Hi. How are you

2271
01:51:24,640 --> 01:51:28,800
Speaker 1: guys the first time caller from yank Kingdom? Okay, on

2272
01:51:28,920 --> 01:51:30,760
Speaker 1: the first time or is today? I'd just like to

2273
01:51:31,080 --> 01:51:36,200
Speaker 1: respond to what I believe Xavier said from Carolina earlier

2274
01:51:36,360 --> 01:51:39,920
Speaker 1: in the call talking about Mac Jones, and he said

2275
01:51:39,960 --> 01:51:44,160
Speaker 1: that he doesn't think mac Jones is a franchise quarterback,

2276
01:51:44,240 --> 01:51:47,280
Speaker 1: and I'd like to argue in favor of mac Jones. Okay,

2277
01:51:48,000 --> 01:51:50,599
Speaker 1: I watched Mac Jones all season. I thought he has

2278
01:51:50,680 --> 01:51:52,880
Speaker 1: way more potential than a lot of people give it

2279
01:51:53,040 --> 01:51:55,000
Speaker 1: give him credit for. And I'd like to go through

2280
01:51:55,080 --> 01:51:57,840
Speaker 1: the last five games of the season with Mac Jones.

2281
01:51:58,200 --> 01:52:00,639
Speaker 1: So against the car play by play, we went down

2282
01:52:00,760 --> 01:52:04,559
Speaker 1: early and Matt Jones came back with twenty unanswered points.

2283
01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:09,320
Speaker 1: Against the Raiders, there was the you know, Jacobe Meyers lateral.

2284
01:52:09,439 --> 01:52:11,479
Speaker 1: We almost went into overtime, and I feel like we

2285
01:52:11,560 --> 01:52:14,599
Speaker 1: had a lot of momentum in that game. Against the Bengals,

2286
01:52:14,680 --> 01:52:16,679
Speaker 1: we were twenty two to zero and then he came

2287
01:52:16,720 --> 01:52:20,080
Speaker 1: back all the way and it ended with a fumble.

2288
01:52:20,120 --> 01:52:22,600
Speaker 1: We all know how that went. We beat the Dolphins

2289
01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:24,920
Speaker 1: in what I thought was a really really good game

2290
01:52:25,000 --> 01:52:28,080
Speaker 1: for Mac, and then against the Bills after all what

2291
01:52:28,240 --> 01:52:31,040
Speaker 1: happened with the heart attack and all that, they go

2292
01:52:31,120 --> 01:52:34,360
Speaker 1: on the field and is a kick return for a

2293
01:52:34,439 --> 01:52:36,960
Speaker 1: touchdown and Mac Jones comes on the field with the

2294
01:52:37,080 --> 01:52:40,560
Speaker 1: offense and runs for a touchdown. In that game that

2295
01:52:41,040 --> 01:52:45,200
Speaker 1: Patriots had more offensive points than Josh Allen and the

2296
01:52:45,280 --> 01:52:48,519
Speaker 1: Bills did. So I'm totally on board with Mac Jones.

2297
01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:50,479
Speaker 1: I think he's going to be great next year. I

2298
01:52:50,680 --> 01:52:53,599
Speaker 1: disagree with all those people who want to bring in Lamar.

2299
01:52:53,960 --> 01:52:56,000
Speaker 1: I think giving out two first round picks, but that

2300
01:52:56,200 --> 01:52:58,960
Speaker 1: is a bad idea. And I'm on board with Juju

2301
01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:00,640
Speaker 1: and I want to receive or that we don't need

2302
01:53:00,680 --> 01:53:03,120
Speaker 1: to give picks away for because I like those bick

2303
01:53:04,240 --> 01:53:09,760
Speaker 1: all right. I love it some positivity, that's all. Where

2304
01:53:09,760 --> 01:53:11,519
Speaker 1: I kind of like to see Paul do his thing.

2305
01:53:11,560 --> 01:53:14,760
Speaker 1: It's kind of fun now, yeah, now you know, And

2306
01:53:14,960 --> 01:53:18,080
Speaker 1: I love the defensive Mac. Yeah. Um. I will say

2307
01:53:18,160 --> 01:53:21,080
Speaker 1: though that nothing on the offense looked right last and

2308
01:53:21,360 --> 01:53:24,880
Speaker 1: including Mac. But was he a victim of that of

2309
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:30,040
Speaker 1: the whole disarray? Probably, So we'll see. Yeah, you know, um. Now,

2310
01:53:30,200 --> 01:53:33,280
Speaker 1: Paul playing the part of Paul, Paul will point out that.

2311
01:53:33,439 --> 01:53:36,240
Speaker 1: And even in that rookie season where you know he

2312
01:53:36,439 --> 01:53:39,680
Speaker 1: was good, he wasn't good down the stretch. You know,

2313
01:53:39,840 --> 01:53:43,120
Speaker 1: something happened down the stretch and you know the team faded.

2314
01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:46,400
Speaker 1: So but we'll see. Let's let's go. We've got a

2315
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:50,240
Speaker 1: real offensive coordinator in here. This is now his third year.

2316
01:53:50,680 --> 01:53:53,600
Speaker 1: I still believe even if Jacobe was still here and

2317
01:53:53,680 --> 01:53:57,920
Speaker 1: Juju wasn't, that this group of offensive players did not

2318
01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:00,200
Speaker 1: live up to their potential last year and they were

2319
01:54:00,240 --> 01:54:02,760
Speaker 1: better than what they showed, and that could have been

2320
01:54:02,840 --> 01:54:06,400
Speaker 1: part of the offense problems too. Let's see what happens

2321
01:54:06,479 --> 01:54:09,200
Speaker 1: this year. I you know, I'm not here saying we

2322
01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:11,280
Speaker 1: got to get rid of Mac. I am not saying

2323
01:54:11,360 --> 01:54:14,320
Speaker 1: that that that you know, to me, we're not worried

2324
01:54:14,320 --> 01:54:17,439
Speaker 1: about the quarterback position right now, right now. Yeah, maybe

2325
01:54:17,520 --> 01:54:19,160
Speaker 1: we will be at by the end of the season,

2326
01:54:19,200 --> 01:54:21,400
Speaker 1: but right now, I'm not worried about that. I'm worried

2327
01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:24,760
Speaker 1: about everything else. Yeah, the quarterback position right now to

2328
01:54:24,880 --> 01:54:27,920
Speaker 1: me is settled for this year. This is what it's

2329
01:54:27,960 --> 01:54:30,080
Speaker 1: going to be, and we're gonna see what this kid

2330
01:54:30,160 --> 01:54:32,840
Speaker 1: can do. And let's build the rest of the team. Yeah,

2331
01:54:32,880 --> 01:54:34,160
Speaker 1: I agree. I mean, I don't you know, I don't

2332
01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:36,240
Speaker 1: think he's totally you know, without blaming some stuff, there

2333
01:54:36,240 --> 01:54:37,560
Speaker 1: were some stuff I wish that we were a little

2334
01:54:37,560 --> 01:54:39,640
Speaker 1: bit different from Mac. But I agree, and I think

2335
01:54:39,680 --> 01:54:41,240
Speaker 1: that this is the year about let's give him a chance.

2336
01:54:41,280 --> 01:54:43,360
Speaker 1: We're giving him an offensive coordinator that you know, he

2337
01:54:43,480 --> 01:54:44,800
Speaker 1: knows a little bit. I know it was a brief

2338
01:54:44,960 --> 01:54:47,360
Speaker 1: passing a time that they were together, but you're giving

2339
01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:50,160
Speaker 1: him some different pieces to work with. Now, we got

2340
01:54:50,240 --> 01:54:52,120
Speaker 1: to know, we gotta know this year. I but I'm

2341
01:54:52,160 --> 01:54:53,600
Speaker 1: with you. I think we got to know this year.

2342
01:54:53,640 --> 01:54:55,240
Speaker 1: We'll find out this year and then you know, then

2343
01:54:55,280 --> 01:54:56,840
Speaker 1: you're then you're talking about next year. All right, where

2344
01:54:56,920 --> 01:54:58,400
Speaker 1: is it? I just hope, you know. To Paul's point

2345
01:54:58,480 --> 01:55:00,320
Speaker 1: is that he doesn't think that they're going to do

2346
01:55:00,600 --> 01:55:02,800
Speaker 1: enough to really truly get a sense of Mac or

2347
01:55:02,840 --> 01:55:04,480
Speaker 1: to give him enough, and that we'll still be saying,

2348
01:55:04,760 --> 01:55:08,520
Speaker 1: well he really didn't have that. No. Listen, for some people,

2349
01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:11,000
Speaker 1: he did enough for them to believe he's not the guy.

2350
01:55:11,360 --> 01:55:13,600
Speaker 1: So why can't in a season he do enough to believe?

2351
01:55:13,800 --> 01:55:17,200
Speaker 1: You know, it's unfair, It's unfair. So let's let's just

2352
01:55:17,480 --> 01:55:21,760
Speaker 1: see when it comes to mac um. You know, does

2353
01:55:21,840 --> 01:55:24,400
Speaker 1: he have to work on his you know, his comportment

2354
01:55:24,520 --> 01:55:28,240
Speaker 1: is absolutely absolutely um. But he's a tennis guy. I

2355
01:55:28,320 --> 01:55:31,560
Speaker 1: get I get it. You know, uh, figure it out.

2356
01:55:31,680 --> 01:55:34,720
Speaker 1: Is he a good locker room guy? Though he's got chemistry?

2357
01:55:34,840 --> 01:55:37,160
Speaker 1: I think a lot of I think players were saying

2358
01:55:37,200 --> 01:55:41,320
Speaker 1: they liked to but I think, yeah, I think guys,

2359
01:55:41,480 --> 01:55:45,480
Speaker 1: uh oh going to the Steelers. Wow, that's a good place.

2360
01:55:45,560 --> 01:55:51,040
Speaker 1: He's a full buck. That's a good place you can play. Oh,

2361
01:55:51,160 --> 01:55:57,560
Speaker 1: and Steelers are releasing Miles Jack. It's yeah, Um, let's

2362
01:55:57,600 --> 01:56:01,480
Speaker 1: see Calvin and Connecticut love the fire in the Call

2363
01:56:01,520 --> 01:56:04,680
Speaker 1: of Xavier. But I'm not sure if it's all correct.

2364
01:56:05,160 --> 01:56:07,760
Speaker 1: There is some truth to trust the process. It's only March.

2365
01:56:08,120 --> 01:56:10,160
Speaker 1: But where I do agree. I used to have fun

2366
01:56:10,240 --> 01:56:12,360
Speaker 1: watching the Patriots and go into games, even if they

2367
01:56:12,400 --> 01:56:14,560
Speaker 1: didn't win it all that year they had Brady and

2368
01:56:14,640 --> 01:56:17,680
Speaker 1: Gronk and Edelman stars where you saw the stadium full

2369
01:56:17,680 --> 01:56:20,320
Speaker 1: of jerseys. Who makes you want to buy a jersey? Nowadays?

2370
01:56:20,640 --> 01:56:23,160
Speaker 1: Maybe Jude On. I don't know. It hasn't been fun

2371
01:56:23,240 --> 01:56:25,960
Speaker 1: to watch the last few seasons get stars or draft

2372
01:56:26,040 --> 01:56:28,880
Speaker 1: and develop stars. It hasn't happened in five years. Your

2373
01:56:28,880 --> 01:56:32,160
Speaker 1: team will perform better too, Higgins or Judy or JSN

2374
01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:37,320
Speaker 1: and I will jump for joy. I think, yeah, Jude

2375
01:56:37,560 --> 01:56:40,080
Speaker 1: jerseys for sure. Juju could sell some jerseys. It's as

2376
01:56:40,080 --> 01:56:42,080
Speaker 1: funny as I'm like, I'm all for like Jerry's Judy.

2377
01:56:42,160 --> 01:56:44,000
Speaker 1: That's great, but really, like, is that really the guy?

2378
01:56:45,760 --> 01:56:47,920
Speaker 1: They need some speed on the outside now, which is

2379
01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:50,120
Speaker 1: why I go back to that. I'm well worried that

2380
01:56:50,200 --> 01:56:52,960
Speaker 1: they think it's Taekwon, but yeah, they need some They

2381
01:56:53,040 --> 01:56:55,320
Speaker 1: need some speed on the outside because Juju is going

2382
01:56:55,360 --> 01:56:56,560
Speaker 1: to be the one in the middle of the field.

2383
01:56:56,800 --> 01:56:59,000
Speaker 1: You gotta get those safeties off of them, open up

2384
01:56:59,040 --> 01:57:02,160
Speaker 1: some space. How it says, it's official. The Patriots have

2385
01:57:02,280 --> 01:57:05,240
Speaker 1: the whiniest fan base of all. Good God, it's been

2386
01:57:05,320 --> 01:57:07,720
Speaker 1: like three days. Let's relax and see where it goes.

2387
01:57:07,880 --> 01:57:10,640
Speaker 1: My takes love Jacoby and what he brought to the team.

2388
01:57:10,760 --> 01:57:14,280
Speaker 1: Jujiu is a good replacement and a slight upgrade. Robinson

2389
01:57:14,400 --> 01:57:17,880
Speaker 1: is an upgrade over Harris assuming he's hell. Reef and

2390
01:57:17,960 --> 01:57:22,080
Speaker 1: Anderson are solid pickups, and Bill depth resigning Pepper Jones,

2391
01:57:22,240 --> 01:57:27,120
Speaker 1: Davis McMillan McDermott, Fern's slater all solid resignings. The division

2392
01:57:27,520 --> 01:57:30,080
Speaker 1: Rogers to Jets is far to Jets two point zero.

2393
01:57:30,880 --> 01:57:34,400
Speaker 1: Ramsey defense great player, nice pickup, still can only cover

2394
01:57:34,560 --> 01:57:37,400
Speaker 1: one receiver at a time. How Tua goes is how

2395
01:57:37,480 --> 01:57:41,320
Speaker 1: the team goes. Not their best defensive not the best

2396
01:57:41,360 --> 01:57:46,120
Speaker 1: defensive back. Bills lost the decordinator and their best tackling linebacker.

2397
01:57:46,440 --> 01:57:49,120
Speaker 1: Let's relax, have some patience and see where this goes.

2398
01:57:49,280 --> 01:57:51,800
Speaker 1: I am interested to see how what Buffalo does to

2399
01:57:52,680 --> 01:57:55,240
Speaker 1: whether that storm a little bit because they're a team

2400
01:57:55,320 --> 01:57:58,720
Speaker 1: that we always say to kind of tease the Bills

2401
01:57:58,760 --> 01:58:00,640
Speaker 1: fan base. I think a little bit. But at the

2402
01:58:00,680 --> 01:58:03,840
Speaker 1: same time, I think it's valid that sustainability is the

2403
01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:05,720
Speaker 1: hardest part. Like you got the quarterback. I think you're

2404
01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:08,160
Speaker 1: gonna be relevant for forever because you have the quarterback.

2405
01:58:08,280 --> 01:58:12,160
Speaker 1: But Leslie Fraser's out, Tremade Edmonds is out. I think

2406
01:58:12,240 --> 01:58:14,480
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer Micah Hyde are getting up there in age,

2407
01:58:14,920 --> 01:58:17,800
Speaker 1: like how do you start to to get that next

2408
01:58:17,840 --> 01:58:19,680
Speaker 1: wave behind Josh Allen in there? It's going to be

2409
01:58:19,720 --> 01:58:22,800
Speaker 1: interesting and expectations are raising, and it's like I think

2410
01:58:22,920 --> 01:58:24,760
Speaker 1: the fan base as I was, and we all were

2411
01:58:24,880 --> 01:58:28,120
Speaker 1: you're aware, it's it's ticking. You got this quarterback, You've

2412
01:58:28,120 --> 01:58:31,320
Speaker 1: got it going right now. But every season is very valuable.

2413
01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:33,240
Speaker 1: All Right, that's gonna do it. For this edition of

2414
