1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: The volume. 2 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 2: Welcome in. Got some topics today about coaches and quarterbacks, 3 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 2: and I want to start. John Middelkoff will joined us 4 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 2: in about fifteen minutes. I want to start with the 5 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 2: Broncos and Russell Wilson and Sean Payton's thirty five thirty 6 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 2: three loss to the Commanders. They had Hail Mary at 7 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 2: the end, and had they converted the two point conversion, 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 2: we would have gone to overtime. But I had said 9 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 2: this before. I didn't think Russell played particularly well. Eighteen 10 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 2: of thirty two, three hundred yards, had a really really 11 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 2: bad pick. He does not have the juice he had previously. 12 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 2: And I thought there were large portions of the game 13 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 2: that Sam Howell was much more mobile, much more of 14 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 2: a playmaker, and was frankly better from the pocket. And 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: Sam How's not as good as Russell Wilson shouldn't be. Also, 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson as Sean Payton a coaching edge. And I 17 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: said this before, is you don't have to be better 18 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: friends with your coach. You don't have to be Belichick 19 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: and Brady didn't have dinner for twenty years, but there 20 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: were a lot of things they did have in common. 21 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 2: Both were driven, aspirational, no nonsense adults. Russell Wilson and 22 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: Sean Payton have the opposite personality. One is harsh, authentic 23 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: to the point, doesn't beat around the bush, doesn't care 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 2: about being polished, and is willing to be intense vocally. 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 2: And then there's Russell Wilson, who is polished, optimistic, refined. 26 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 2: And by the way, it's okay for a quarterback to 27 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 2: be more optimistic than pessimistic because people make mistakes. You 28 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 2: play with young guys, you want Brady try to be optimistic. 29 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: But sometimes optimism can veer away from realism. And so 30 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 2: in order for Russell Wilson and Sean Payton to work, 31 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: they have to win games. You can't go zero and 32 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: two to start the season, both games in Denver. You 33 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 2: can't lose to Sam Howell and Ron Rivera as a favorite. 34 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 2: You can't lose back to back games as a favorite 35 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: against the Raider and the Commanders. And so this relationship 36 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: only works because the personalities are so different. It only 37 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: works if they win these close games and they're zero 38 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: and two. The very first day he had the opportunity, 39 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 2: he did. Sean Payton acquired Jarrett Stidham for a pretty 40 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: healthy backup quarterback salary, which told you when he got 41 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 2: to Denver, the first thing he did was look at 42 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson film. How do I know, because he told 43 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 2: me that was the first thing he was going to do. 44 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 2: He was going to look at all his plays. What 45 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: does he do well? What doesn't he do well? Let's 46 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 2: avoid the latter, let's go toward the former. So he 47 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 2: obviously saw stuff on film where he wanted somebody who 48 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 2: could sit in the pocket and make throws. Remember in 49 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: New Orleans, once Drew Brees got older, they had Taysom Hill, 50 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: they had Jameis Winston, they had Teddy Bridgewater. He was 51 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: cycling people through as Drew Brees aged. Well. Russell Wilson 52 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: is thirty four, and he looks like he's thirty nine. 53 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: He just simply does not move as well as he 54 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: did four years ago. I don't know if some of 55 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 2: it's confidence emotional, no major surgeries. Thirty four. He plays 56 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: much much older than his age. Brady obviously played much 57 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: younger than his age. Aaron Rodgers largely plays younger pre 58 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: injury than his age. But this thing doesn't work, and 59 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: you know, again, the hail Mary makes this game look 60 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 2: more competitive. Very early on Denver scripted plays had some 61 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: success that Sean Payton doing the work. But when you 62 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: get to late first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, early 63 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: fourth that's quarterback play, that's pre snap, that's you quarterback 64 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage. Quarterbacks I don't even like Daniel Jones 65 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: had very very good fourth quarter, late third quarters today, 66 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: just on athleticism and some big time throws. So I 67 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: think this, I think they're headed for major turbulence in 68 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: Denver next year, starting next year for five years. This 69 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: is a massively punitive contract to the Broncos with a 70 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: coach and a quarterback with completely different personalities. And I 71 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: think there's there's nothing wrong with being optimistic, but I 72 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: think it gets frustrating when somebody's really optimistic and there's 73 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 2: obvious problems. I mean, I like optimistic people. I don't 74 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 2: like negative people. But you know, if the walls are 75 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: caving in, you know we're in the middle of an earthquake. 76 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 2: I don't want optimism. I want to figure out a 77 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 2: way to get safe and clean the house up. And 78 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: so I think we're looking at a situation here in Denver. 79 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: This is only going to get worse. The schedule's only 80 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: going to get tougher now they go on the road. 81 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: And again, if you watch the game, and I did, 82 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 2: once they got off scripted plays, second, third quarter, fourth, 83 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: I thought Sam Howe played more confidently. Really really hard 84 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 2: to figure out. Never seen a quarterback have it lose 85 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 2: it without a major injury pre thirty five years old. 86 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: Never seen it. I have no comp Speaking of quarterback trouble, 87 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: you can blame the coach or blame the quarterback. Justin 88 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: field right now doesn't look like a franchise quarterback. I 89 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: don't know if you can't see the field or anticipate. 90 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: But they spend some money on that offense. The offensive 91 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 2: line isn't great, but it's not as bad as others 92 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: in the league. I mean, you can watch the way 93 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: they coach him. They so badly want to control the clock, run, 94 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 2: speed the game up, shorten it. DJ Moore is a 95 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: really good player. If they got good tight ends. Luke Getz, 96 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: he's a respected offensive coordinator. It just doesn't work. So 97 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 2: you're gonna have a situation in Chicago. You got to 98 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: blame somebody. Somebody is done after the season, is it. 99 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 2: Matt Eberflu's the head coach that was Bill Pollion's choice. 100 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 2: The ownership of the Bears called Bill Pollion and said, 101 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: kind of run our coaching search and Matt Eberflus. Now, 102 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 2: I'm a believer that if you have a young quarterback, 103 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 2: higher an offensive coach, if you have a veteran quarterback, okay, 104 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 2: then you can go defensive coach. 105 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: You know. 106 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 2: I think there's pretty clear evidence that the Jared Goff's 107 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: career was saved by Sean McVay. Brock Perty's career has 108 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 2: been elevated by Kyle Shanahan. Shane Steichen has done wonders 109 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: with Anthony Richardson, who barely played college football. I think 110 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: young quarterbacks need substantial guidance and a softer landing after 111 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: bad outcomes, and sometimes defensive coaches can be tone deaf. 112 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: Matty e Nflus maybe a good coach. I don't know 113 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: if he's good for justin fields. But it doesn't work. 114 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't work at all. It's it's just bad. 115 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: I mean, you can it's like Zack Wilson of the Jets. 116 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: Zach isn't just the only reason the Jets lost Michael 117 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 2: Parsons ate him up, but it doesn't work. Zack's not 118 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: a He's not a franchise quarterback. Now, Justin's bigger, stronger arm, 119 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 2: maybe bigger athlete. Both are really mobile. But you know, 120 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: Greg Cosell came on my show this week and said, 121 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson and Justin Fields don't see the field particularly well. 122 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: They just leave completions in the pocket. Somebody's got to 123 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 2: take the blame for this because we're now, what is 124 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: Justin Fields? He is five and twenty two in twenty 125 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: seven starts. I mean, these are winnable games at home 126 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 2: against Jordan Love, on the road against Baker Mayfield. Again, 127 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: these look like W's coaching mcorder are making more money 128 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: than they ever had, and they're going to get fired 129 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 2: faster than ever. And also, remember this is the best 130 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: college quarterback class I've ever seen. Michael Pennox, Caleb Williams, 131 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: Shador Sanders, Bo Nicks, Travis, Jordan, Drake, may Riley Leonard 132 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 2: at Duke. There's at least six quarterbacks. What's that going 133 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: to do? Gms are going to be much less patient 134 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: with aging quarterbacks Denver or younger quarterbacks Chicago. And now 135 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: for our segment called making it look easy, brought to 136 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 2: you by Morgan and Morgan, America's largest injury law firm. 137 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: Micah Parsons of the Cowboys did two sacks, a force fumble, 138 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: and a fumble recovery. Of course, it helps with a 139 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: below average, suboptimal offensive line for the Jets, but Michah 140 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: Parsons right now is arguably the most disruptive pass rusher 141 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 2: in the NFL. Morgan and Morgan has over one hundred 142 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 2: offices nationwide and over eight hundred lawyers sixteen billion dollars 143 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 2: recovered for over three hundred thousand clients. Morgan and Morgan 144 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: has been fighting for the people for over thirty five years. 145 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: So if you're ever injured, go to Fourthpeople dot com, 146 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 2: slash Colin, or dial pound five to two nine to 147 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 2: check out America's largest injury law firm. Winning in the 148 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 2: NFL is hard. Hiring Morgan and Morgan is easy, just 149 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: like they make it look easy. Morgan and Morgan makes 150 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: it so easy to submit a claim. Well, well, well 151 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 2: here we are again. It's like a repeat of last week. 152 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 2: So Brandon Staley's defense could not stop Ryan Tannehill the 153 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 2: last time he had the ball in the fourth, Nor 154 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: could they stop Ryan Tannehill in his big possession in overtime, 155 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: Ryan Tannehill. When an offense that's searching for a second receiver, 156 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 2: you can blame Justin Herbert. But Justin Herbert has averaged 157 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: more points in his first three year starting than any 158 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: quarterback including Patrick Mahomes, Dan Marino, John Elway in league history. 159 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 2: It's not an offensive problem. That's not the problem. Brandon 160 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 2: Staley and Brian Dabele interviewed for the Chargers job. Brian 161 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: Dabele is who I would have hired. Staley was cheaper, 162 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 2: and he was on the Rams staff, and perhaps the 163 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 2: Spanos family felt like, you know, we can pluck him 164 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: away and slow down the momentum of the Rams. Maybe 165 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: that's what they were thinking. But Brandon Staley had much 166 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: less experience in football. So much of the Rams' success 167 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 2: as centered around Sean McVeigh. You have to be careful 168 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: about plucking people from his staff. We know that Daboll 169 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 2: resurrected Josh Allen and got Daniel Jones to the playoffs. 170 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 2: I just think they hired the wrong coach. I watched 171 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 2: this defense, Bosa Derwin, James J. C. Jackson. They've drafted well, 172 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 2: they could probably use another interior defensive lineman. By and large, 173 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: this is an experienced defense that brought back almost all 174 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 2: their starters. Like they're a team that shouldn't be fooled 175 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 2: or out of sync like they were against Miami. Okay, 176 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 2: it's Miami, but again the last two big possessions by Tennessee. 177 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: Tennessee can't get a stop. So the Spanos family has 178 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 2: never paid a lot of money for coaches, so they're 179 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 2: not going to run him in season. Plus they made 180 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,359 Speaker 2: the playoffs last year. You know, the athletic the subscription 181 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 2: sportswriter model, which now is owned by the New York Times, 182 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: there's a great I think they do a really good 183 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 2: job covering the NFL. I think the individual team writers 184 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 2: are fantastic. The Chargers individual writer this week kind of 185 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 2: looked back at the Miami game and picked it apart 186 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 2: on some confusion in the secondary, and his primary issue was, 187 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 2: these guys are all returning, how can they make so 188 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 2: many mistakes on third and long and coverages. You can 189 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 2: see it on television. They just can't make big stops. So, 190 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 2: you know, it was interesting. I was talking to Chad 191 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,599 Speaker 2: Millman this week. He comes on for Sharper square, and 192 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,439 Speaker 2: he said, this is a major coaching mismatch, which is why, 193 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 2: by the way, I thought Denver would win today. I 194 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 2: thought it was a coaching mismatch. But Brandon Staley, I mean, 195 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: you're that front office right now, the Spano says Tom 196 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: to let's go the GM. I can assure you they're 197 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 2: not happy, and I do believe one of the reasons 198 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: they brought Kellen Moore over not only did they feel 199 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 2: it was an upgrade, but they were concerned on what 200 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 2: they saw in the first two years of Brandon Staley's defense. 201 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: And my guess is Kellen Moore, I don't know if 202 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 2: it would happen at the end of the season or Thanksgiving. 203 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: This team is just simply too talented to be zero 204 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 2: and two. There's too many good players on this roster. 205 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 2: There's almost no holes. I've been reluctant for years to 206 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 2: embrace the Chargers. This is the year I finally did. 207 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 2: It's just inexcusable. Ball is back in full swing and 208 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 2: another week of absolutely epic games.

I can't 223 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 2: tell when that first round offensive lineman, I think he 224 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: was a first or a second round pick for them, 225 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 2: the rookie at people kind of that dubious pick. He's 226 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: actually been a really good player, strange. I didn't love 227 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: and I don't blame officials, but I didn't love that reversal. 228 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 2: I would have let it go. I got to tell 229 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 2: you something, that game never felt close. The fact that 230 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 2: New England was driving you know, I don't want to 231 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 2: be overly critical of Belichick because he is the smartest 232 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 2: coach ever, and just being clever doesn't necessarily win you 233 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 2: Super Bowls. But the Niners have the best personnel in 234 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 2: the league. I believe that. I think Miami if you 235 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 2: count head coach and then coordinator on the other side 236 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 2: of the ball from the head coach, I think you 237 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 2: can make an argument Miami is the best coach team 238 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 2: in the league. Between Fangio and this sort of sporadic pass, 239 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: his blitzes, his coverages, I think McDaniel is so clever 240 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 2: it's like a fast version of the forty nine ers. 241 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 1: Well, he's an Ivy League Shanahan, right, the Ivy League guy. 242 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: The Shanahan family have known him for twenty years. He's 243 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: Kyle's right hand guy. They loved him. It speaks for 244 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 1: itself what they're doing. Think how many guys Obviously Tyreek 245 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: was an established player when they traded for him, and 246 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: they traded a lot and paid him a lot. But 247 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: how often when the little guy who's five to nine 248 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: a buck eighty but he's really fast is drafted really 249 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: high in the draft. It feels like they don't hit 250 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: a lot. And Waddle is a home run. I mean 251 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: that guy is a stud. So between those two guys 252 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: and Motor, the speed they have, I mean it was 253 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: evident tonight. I was watching thinking if the Patriots, if 254 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: you put some of the Brady offenses on this team, 255 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: they would be fantastic. They're going on special teams, their 256 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: defense is really solid. Offensively in twenty twenty three, just 257 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: a little behind the times. It's just not gonna work. 258 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if you put Jalen Waddle on the Patriots, 259 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: you'd have a real team exactly. They just don't have 260 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: any juice and a lot of these low percentage up 261 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: the sideline routes where even if you catch it, you're 262 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 2: off and out of bounds. Bill O'Brien, New England feels outdated, 263 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 2: like they do things that are still very important, like 264 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: not a lot of penalties turnovers. They play good defense, 265 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 2: but you really, I mean, listen, it's like any other culture, John, 266 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 2: the rules have all changed. It's such a benefit to 267 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: be an offensive coach. I last week, ten of the 268 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 2: top eleven rated offensive lines according to PFF, had offensive 269 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: head coaches. And I just feel like New England struggled 270 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 2: a little bit upfront and protection tonight they don't have 271 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 2: a lot of juice on the outside. I think San 272 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: Francisco is the best team I've seen so far this year. 273 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 2: I think Miami's the second best team in the league. 274 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: I just I don't necessarily, I don't trust their offensive line. 275 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: But then I watched again tonight and I thought it 276 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: was pretty good, especially when they ran the ball guard 277 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 2: center guard on New England. I was like, maybe they 278 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 2: can play power football. They did tonight. 279 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, most has been a starting running back 280 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: on a team that was in the Super Bowl. I mean, 281 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: he's a really good player if he stays healthy. Fangio. 282 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: They mentioned this on the broadcast. Obviously, you know New 283 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: England's offense isn't the Chargers offense, but tweak some stuff 284 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: change with the defensive line. I mean he's elite, and 285 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's probably the highest, you know, highest compensated 286 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator in the NFL. I mean he probably makes 287 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: five million dollars or something a year, so he's he's 288 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: the real deal. I think that if they keep two 289 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: on the field, I mean they do a lot of 290 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: They don't ask him to sit back seven step drop 291 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: and just like it's a lot of getting the ball, 292 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: you know, getting rid of the ball quickly. Those two 293 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: wide receivers get opened so fast that what are you 294 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 1: gonna do. You're not gonna press them because you're terrified 295 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna run by you. You play off, you get 296 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: it to him quickly and then get by you. Those 297 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: two guys are just an elite combination, which it's not 298 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: normal for small guys, two small guys to be able 299 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: to dominate, but they just are on the upper end 300 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: of Obviously, Tyreek's the Hall of Famer, and I think 301 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: Waddle is one of the better young just players in 302 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: the league. 303 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, tonight, when you juxtapose these two teams, it was 304 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 2: ready And I said this Friday on the Herd, I said, 305 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: it's going to be a clash of cultures. It's like 306 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety eight football in twenty twenty three football and 307 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 2: the newer version one. It was just a matter again, 308 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 2: if you gave New England one elite number one receiver, 309 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 2: this team can play with anybody, because that's what they're missing. 310 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 2: The question was can Miami play physical football like New England? 311 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 2: And I think it was answered tonight. They had a 312 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 2: more consistent pass rush, They ran the football between the tackles. 313 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 2: It was like, Wow, Miami can play power football too 314 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 2: with Mike McDaniel, which is, by the way, that system 315 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 2: is built ideally to be able to do both. San 316 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 2: Francisco does both. So Miami and San Francisco, those are 317 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: the two best teams I've seen. Do you dispute that 318 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 2: anybody else you've seen? 319 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,479 Speaker 1: No, I mean San Francisco today, I thought I had 320 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: their cea game and one pretty easily, So yeah, they 321 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: looked pretty good. The AFC, I mean there's just obviously 322 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 1: the Bengals Ro zero and two, the Chiefs, they'll be fine, 323 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: but they're not playing very well right now. The Chargers 324 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: are in shambles. We'll see tomorrow with the in the Browns. 325 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean the Bills. You know, they played 326 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: the Raiders, who defensively have been shitty for a decade. 327 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: But I'm with you on Miami. I think they got 328 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: it just because I believe in Vic Fangio. Don't love 329 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: the personnel, but he's such a good coach. They'll figure 330 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 1: it out. And who knows, maybe Jalen Ramsey they're able 331 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: to get him back by December. That could be a 332 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: huge boost. Right, But I think with New England. And 333 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: I never understood when Kyle Shanahan, who clearly wanted to 334 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: draft and number three, he talked out of it. I 335 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: don't view him ever as a first round pick, like 336 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: I don't take guys like him and can he pick 337 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: it in the first round. I just don't. Cousins and Dax, 338 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: these guys go. That talent level goes later in the draft. Now, 339 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 1: if you are going to hit on that guy, he's 340 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: got to be pretty flawless in terms of not turning 341 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: the ball over last week air mails ball pick six 342 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: to the volume slay this week. I mean that pick. 343 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: You can say all their guys don't get open, but 344 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: you just can't throw. You're just throwing it right to 345 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: the other team. And that's that's the thing with New England, 346 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: the mistakes, the mistakes. I was at the Fristo State 347 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: game last night at Arizona State and a lot of 348 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: Warmer players, a lot of Pat Hill used to send 349 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: a lot of guys to New England and talking to 350 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: these guys the you know in the two thousands in 351 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: their heyday before the second half of the dynasty, the 352 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: discipline and the mandates for zero you know, excuses of 353 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: missed assignments, screw ups. Turn it just was not allowed 354 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: because it started with Tom and it went all the 355 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: way down everyone. Any moment you screwed up, you get cut. Obviously, 356 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: you know they weren't cutting Tom, but it was just 357 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: and you just watch them now, it's like the mistakes. 358 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: You can't really cut Mac, but they're kind of just 359 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: in the boat with them. They can't go anywhere else. 360 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: And he's a he's a turnover machine right now. Yeah. 361 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 2: And the other thing was in New England's heyday for 362 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 2: most of the dynasty, I viewed them as smarter than 363 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 2: other teams. I watched teams like Baltimore come into town 364 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 2: with more talent and the Ray Lewis teams, the Steelers 365 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: had more talent. There were years the Colts did, Denver did, 366 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: but New England out smarted you. They would dial up 367 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 2: a trick play late in the third quarter that you 368 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 2: know Edelman throwing the on field special teams. I don't 369 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: feeld New England's a smart team. When I watched them, 370 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 2: I think they're a team that lacks speed. They don't, 371 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: they're not Their schemes aren't smarter. They're not fooling people. 372 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 2: They're turning the ball over. 373 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 1: If you. 374 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 2: They never had to be the most athletic team or 375 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 2: the best roster, but they were good. They had playmakers. 376 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 2: I mean even Wes Welker Edelman, they had a playmaker, 377 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 2: Feel Gronk, Aaron Hernandez didn't have to be Randy Moss playmakers. 378 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 2: They got no playmakers Kendrick Bourne's Devonte Parkers. And they're 379 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 2: not terribly smart. They make the same mistakes everybody else does. Now, 380 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 2: I think one of the things you have to I 381 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: was spent the weekend in Chicago, flew back this morning 382 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 2: as I came into the season, Sam, I'm about fifty 383 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 2: five sixty percent in the Justin Fields is gonna make it. 384 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 2: But I don't love what I see as a passer. 385 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I thought today it was bad, Like you 386 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 2: fly home. He's blaming the OC. I think you fly 387 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: home and they're people having discussions in that team upstairs 388 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 2: on that staff that are don't believe in him. That's 389 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 2: my takeaway is you got to win that game against 390 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay and Baker Mayfield, and Baker Mayfield was far 391 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 2: more productive. Like they've that offensive line for Chicago. It's 392 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 2: not elite. It's not it's you know, it's not Philadelphia John. 393 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,719 Speaker 2: It's not that bad. There was time today to make plays. 394 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: He's not very good, Colin. It's it's just that simple. 395 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: He's not right now, he's a low level NFL quarterback. 396 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 2: YEP. 397 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: Of all the thirty two starters, he's much closer to 398 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: thirty two right now than he is twenty. I watched 399 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: that game, and there were a lot of good games 400 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: on this morning, but every single time that they were 401 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: on offense, I click back to it. I thought, One, 402 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 1: he's just not very naturally accurate. He's not that really 403 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: stands out. And you know a lot is made of 404 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: seeing the field and stuff, and that's Kyle Shanahan. When 405 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: they made that trade, it was a two horse race. 406 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: He didn't even mess with him. He was not even 407 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 1: in consideration because he thought he did not see the field, 408 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: he did not anticipate, and coaches, I think sometimes see 409 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 1: that better than like the front office scouting, because that's 410 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: you know that they scheme the offense. But there were 411 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: a couple of plays today on just like wheel routes 412 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: and just balls in the flat where he is throwing 413 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: ninety nine min on our fastballs at guy's feet. You 414 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: don't need to throw to throw a change up, but 415 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: he can't really and obviously now his confidence. He's just 416 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: he's a bad player. And you can tell me all 417 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: you want. Win loss record is not a quarterback stat. Bullshit. 418 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean, all the good quarterbacks win. Yeah, he's not 419 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: like they didn't have a chance. I mean, Baker Mayfield 420 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: looked like Drew Brees right out to him on the 421 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: same field now, and Baker's playing pretty well. But yeah, 422 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: justin fields was that was bad? That was really really bad. 423 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 2: I always kind of rolled my eyes at the quarterback. 424 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 2: It's winning is not a quarterback stat. Twenty seven starts 425 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: five and twenty two. Come on, Dan Marino didn't win 426 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 2: super Bowls. Dan Marino won a lot of games, okay, 427 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 2: and not always not with always you know, great person. Well, 428 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 2: Brett Farv won a lot of games without Pro Bowl 429 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 2: wide receivers. There's three or four plays in every football 430 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 2: game that high end quarterbacks make Mac Jones tonight on 431 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 2: that final drive. Some of those play he just doesn't 432 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 2: move well enough. And I think what happens John in 433 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 2: situations like this is for instance, Herbert, I saw some 434 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 2: stat in his last like four starts, you know, he's 435 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 2: sixty six percent completion percentage, ninety eight passer rating, thirteen 436 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 2: hundred yards. They're zero to four, and nobody looks at 437 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert and says it's Justin's fault. They're putting up 438 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 2: twenty six twenty eight a game. This is different. You 439 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 2: may not love the coach, but what happens when you 440 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 2: don't love the quarterback. So here's the thing. I think 441 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 2: it would be a tougher decision for Chicago. But if 442 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 2: you're the GM and you're the owner, and you have 443 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 2: a draft coming up with six to seven first round 444 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: quarterbacks and all of them, I mean, Drake may sder Sanders, 445 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams, Michael Pennix is having a season crushing it. 446 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 2: It's like, okay, all of these guys look like modern 447 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 2: Even bon Nicks looks better this year. So I do 448 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 2: think it's easier to move off. It's easier to move 449 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 2: off justin fields than maybe any other year. And I'm 450 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 2: sorry their offensive personnel, John, It's not that bad, it's not. 451 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a two prong question. Now, one do 452 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: you leave justin fields. It's an easy one because you 453 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: just watch him every week. Even the fans will agree 454 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 1: he's not good enough. It's not one of those that 455 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: it'll be universal. It is growing by the week. I mean, 456 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: my mom can tell the guy is not a very 457 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: good player at this point, this GM and coach didn't 458 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 1: draft him. Then you look at the coach and the GM. 459 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 1: Are they the right people to do this moving forward? 460 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 1: They traded for Chase Claypool last week pick thirty two. 461 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw that viral video going around. That's 462 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: a good example a good organization. Okay, the pickslong Gaunt 463 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: cut the guy after week one? What are you gonna do? 464 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: Lose more games? You're already losing. How do you allow 465 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: that to happen? And to me, you just questioned the 466 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 1: operation there. Obviously, Eberflus, is he good enough? I got 467 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: no clue. So you're gonna draft Pennix because they're gonna 468 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: be in position, not just with their pick, but remember 469 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: we've talked about this with Carolina's pick, so even if 470 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 1: they're at like three and six, they could easily maybe 471 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: get up a spot. They're gonna have a ton of options, right, 472 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: But are these people the group to do it? We've 473 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: seen them make moves. The draft one was relatively easy. 474 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 1: They had Carolina, you know, kind of bent over a 475 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: barrel on that one. But some of these other moves, 476 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 1: it's like, do they know what they're doing? Especially the 477 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: defensive coach You always talked talk about this, So I 478 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean people in the NFL, it's always 479 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: easy to say, well, just tank for this guy. Well 480 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 1: that's true for the fans, but we see coaches all 481 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: the time. Todd Bowle is a good example. O Tampa 482 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: just sucked. Try to get Kayleb Williams. Todd Bowle's not 483 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: thinking like that. Mike Evans and those guys aren't thinking 484 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: a lot. Baker's not thinking like that. So they're not 485 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna be a ten win team, 486 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: but they're gonna try like hell to be eight nine wins. Right, 487 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: So the Bears are just gonna suck because that's the 488 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: quarterback not any good. But do the other if if 489 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: they were in position with better personnel, would they be 490 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: doing better? Like are these guys capable? We see it 491 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: with Brandon Staley right clear, he's not good. He's been 492 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: given a team that if you flip flop him and Vrabel, 493 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: You'd be like, well, the charge are gonna win thirteen 494 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: games and Titans would win what fucking five? I mean, 495 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: they'd be terrible. 496 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's great example. I want to I want 497 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 2: to pivot to that because Brandon Staley got into it 498 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 2: again with a reporter on the postgame press conference, and 499 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 2: he is feeling the heat. And I know the Chargers 500 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 2: in house don't love Staley snipping at reporters. He comes 501 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 2: across as sort of a know it all and condescending. 502 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 2: McVeigh doesn't. I think you've said it before. Brandon Staley's acting, 503 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: pretending to be a coach, and Sean McVay is a coach. 504 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 2: But it was another example today where Ryan Tannehill's final 505 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 2: drive in regulation, they couldn't make a stop. Ryan Tannehill's 506 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 2: driving overtime, they couldn't make a stop. Not only do 507 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 2: they have a Bosa on the edge, but they returned. 508 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 2: I think like ten starters, they're not and they have 509 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 2: two draft picks both especially two of from USC the edge. 510 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 2: They are good players. I mean they they Tom Selesko 511 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 2: is one of the better drafters in the league. First 512 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 2: four picks. Yeah, he just doesn't miss. Now, you could 513 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 2: say Khalil Mack was overpaid, but the truth is at 514 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,959 Speaker 2: that time they needed somebody like having two pass rushers. 515 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 2: Herbert wasn't making any money. Your left tackle Rashaan Slater's 516 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: not making money. You can pay two pass rushers. I 517 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 2: don't think the Spanoses will eject Staley this year. But 518 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 2: let me throw this at you. Did they hire Kellen 519 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 2: Moore with an eye on making him the coach? Because 520 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 2: the Spanouses don't pay a fortune, you don't have to 521 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 2: pay Kellen Moore twelve million dollars, I would guess today 522 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 2: Kellen Moore the coach next year. I don't know if 523 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 2: they replace him mid season. But like when a coach 524 00:27:55,640 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 2: is arguing with the press and calling them out by name, 525 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 2: like to me, that feels personal and defensive, Well, I. 526 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: Think sometimes they're gonna be different. Sides do arguments sometimes 527 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: when it comes to play calling or individual player. I 528 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: think everyone's in agreement here. The Chargers don't have a 529 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: good enough coach for the team that they have, and 530 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: most people thought this offseason, Yes, Sean Payton in your backyard, 531 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: He's already in LA. He likes it. He clearly loves 532 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: your quarterback. Anyone that follows this team knows he was 533 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: never gonna pay him money. That's not the way they operate. 534 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: Look at their last several coaches, McCoy, Anthony Lynn, and 535 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: these guys on the on the hierarchy of NFL salaries 536 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: are near the bottom if Mike, aren't they I mean 537 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: they're the cheapest. So yeah, I think Kellen Moore, I 538 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: think there's a chance you're oher to four to OHO 539 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: and five and you keep losing games which you can't 540 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: pick them to win moving forward, just because you can't 541 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: trust the head coach and the defenses and shambles. But yeah, 542 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: I could see them, you know, kind of pulling the 543 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: trigger because there was clearly pressure coming into this season. 544 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: He feels it. Think about some of the moves they made. 545 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: I'm with you on Khalil Mack, but a big reason 546 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: they wanted Khalil Mack because this guy had coached him, 547 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: helped make his name with Khalil Mack back when Khalil 548 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: Mack was good. They gave up a second round pick. 549 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: He makes a lot of money. I love Khalil Mack 550 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,959 Speaker 1: as a young player. He's a shell of himself. He's 551 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: not very good, right j C. Jackson. You spend a 552 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: lot of much that's not working out now he got hurt, 553 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: but so you allocate a lot of resources. It's not working. 554 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: Your head coach has nothing to do with the offense 555 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: or the quarterback. So if the defense sucks, what's he 556 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: really doing. He's not like some raw ram motivator. Mike Tomlin, 557 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: Nick saban Deon Sanders. That's not a deal, right. I 558 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: think he's in major trouble. I mean I because he's 559 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: not that expensive to fire. Real It's not like you're 560 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: firing Andy Reader Sean Payton where you have an eighty 561 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: million dollar payout. I think there are a couple losses 562 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: away from just just doing that, you know, and almost 563 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: and almost getting a free interview Colin with Kellen. 564 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm getting I'm looking at some numbers right now. 565 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: So if anybody's watching this on YouTube, I'm looking at 566 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 2: some numbers because, as you know, they threw for almost 567 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 2: five hundred yards and tonight again, I think the Chargers 568 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: have better personnel overall than the Patriots do defensively, and 569 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 2: remember the Patriots were missing two corners and one got hurt. 570 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 2: Threw for two hundred and forty nine yards and an 571 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 2: interception against New England. Against the Chargers of more talented defense, 572 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: he almost threw for five hundred yards and three touchdowns. Tonight, 573 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 2: Tua struggled to a dropped a couple of snaps. Tua 574 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 2: was pressured. So there's a prime example, is that to 575 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 2: a one. But he he sputtered for a while. He 576 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: wasn't perfect a lot of the stuff with yards after catch. 577 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: He almost got double the yards against the Chargers that 578 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 2: he did against New England, and the Chargers have better personnel. 579 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: Well, think about this. You watched the Bengals the last 580 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: couple weeks. You go, well, if Joe Burrow's gonna look 581 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: like this, yeah, they're gonna lose like they He's got 582 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: to play better. I don't know if his CAF's issue. 583 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: He just looks off the eye test. It does not 584 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: look like Joe Burrow. Now last year he started slow, whatever, 585 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: But it's understandable. If Joe Burrow's gonna play like crap, 586 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: the Bengals are gonna lose. Well, Herbert's played well, you know, 587 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: they keep scoring points. He looks like a really good 588 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: quarterback and they keep losing. The Dolphins last week Okay, 589 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: it turns out maybe the Dolphins fourteen win team, this 590 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: Titans team. I mean, how many guys were the Titans 591 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: would start for the for the Chargers. And to me, 592 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: it's just simple. It's a coaching It's like Patrick Mahomes 593 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: versus Justin Fields. The mismatch is so so wide that 594 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: of course they lost. Because Mike Vrabel is an elite coach. 595 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, they have their defensive interior defensive lineman for Tennessee. 596 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: He had a Simmons good Jeff, he's a star. 597 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they've got about two or three other guys 598 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 2: that you would obviously get run. But it was a 599 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 2: lobsided game today. And I think, even though I was 600 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 2: reading something on the internet yesterday about it, like the 601 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 2: wise guys like the Titans simply because they thought it 602 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 2: was a coaching one of the worst coaching mismatches in 603 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 2: the league this year. So, I mean, we might as 604 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 2: well talk Dallas and the Jets. I think I think Dallas, 605 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 2: you know, there's not a lot of great quarterbacks in 606 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 2: this league. There's about six great ones and another six 607 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 2: good ones. Anybody that's not on that list is not 608 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 2: beating Dallas this year. Now, Jalen Hurts can Daniel Jones can't. 609 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 2: He can't beat him. Sam Sam Hall can't beat him. 610 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson can't beat him. I mean I look at 611 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 2: Dallas and I go up and down their schedule, and 612 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 2: the way I look at that defense, John is there's 613 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 2: about six quarterbacks in this league that can beat him, 614 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 2: and another four or five that if they get protection, 615 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 2: you know it'll be a close game. I think Dallas's 616 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 2: defense is gonna win twelve games. I think Dak is not. 617 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 2: The story. Is Micah Parsons the best defensive player in 618 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 2: the league. 619 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: Well, he had a play today on I think his 620 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 1: first sac He was at full speed in half a 621 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: step on a little stunt. It's like, what are you 622 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: supposed to do with this here? I was way too 623 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: young to really remember, you know, watch LT's prime, but 624 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: that has to be some of what it looked like. 625 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: The speed, the violence, closing ability, how you can move 626 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: them around like a chess piece. I thought this last 627 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: year in the second round, they went toe to toe 628 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: with the Niners, who are clearly, if not the most 629 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: but right there now with Dallas is the most physical team. 630 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: I mean they are violent on defense and the Cowboys 631 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: were ready to win a championship on defense, but Dack 632 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: through the two picks and that the game was tight. 633 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: Perdy didn't play that well because it's hard against the Cowboys. 634 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: This defense feels even a little bit better. Maybe Micah's 635 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: five percent better. All the guys have played together a 636 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: little longer. They kept Dan Quinn. I'm with you. I 637 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: picked Dallas to win the East at the beginning of 638 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: the year, not because I don't think highly of the Eagles. 639 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: I think both of them are thirteen fourteen win teams. 640 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: But I've seen what the Niners do. Separating with an 641 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 1: elite defense, in an elite pass rush, it just takes over. 642 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: I mean, Zach Wilson, listen, has he improved it? Who knows? 643 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: You weren't gonna find much out this week. Probably have 644 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 1: a better idea next week, but he's playing Belichick. But 645 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: that team, I'm telling you, if they just need to 646 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: get the four game stretch, if they stay healthy like 647 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: Eli gott like Joe Flacco got whe Dad could just 648 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: under control. They don't need the wild card game where 649 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: he throws five touchdowns every week. Can he just play 650 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,879 Speaker 1: a couple games stretch where he's not throwing the ball 651 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: to the other team, and they can win a Super 652 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: Bowl because that's how good the defense is. The same 653 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: with the Niners. The Niners could have won several Super Bowls. 654 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: Their defense was right there. Jimmy just let him down 655 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: a couple times. 656 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 2: Well, look at this. So here are the quarterbacks. The 657 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 2: Cowboys face Dobbs Arizona win. 658 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 1: He can't beat it. 659 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 2: Now, Mac Jones, Patriots with no number one receiver win. Now, 660 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 2: brock Perty's got a shot because of his personnel. Herbert Okay, Stafford. 661 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 2: I don't think they have enough weapons. Cooper Cup is back. 662 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting. Jalen hurts, Yes, then Daniel Jones, Bryce Young, 663 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 2: Sam Howe, Geno Smith, I mean. 664 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: Gonna win a lot of games. They're gonna win a 665 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: lot of games. But they got three games. You know, 666 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: if they if they somehow split with the Eagles in 667 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: that Niner game on Sunday Night Football, I think it's 668 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: gonna be a coin flip game. If they can somehow 669 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 1: go two and three, you're looking at the number one seed, right, 670 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,959 Speaker 1: And if they go one and three, you're maybe looking 671 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: at the wild card, right. So it's gonna and I 672 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: think all these games, the Niners played the Eagles. Obviously, 673 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: the Nighters play the Cowboys, and the Eagles play the 674 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys twice. You know, it's these games are gonna come 675 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: down to a fumble here who doesn't throw a pick? 676 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 1: And it's gonna decide because all three have number one 677 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 1: seed talents, right. I think clearly the Niners have the 678 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: most established head coach right now in terms he's the 679 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: play caller. Also, McCarthy say this, when you have that 680 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 1: good of a defense, it hardens your team because you 681 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,760 Speaker 1: practice against it. And now this team, so the Cowboys 682 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: to me just look a little bit better than they 683 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: did last year, and they were pretty good last year. 684 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: And the Eagles. You and I talked about this anytime 685 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: you change. If we got we went to the store 686 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: and got a set of ingredients, you know two X 687 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 1: I cook a meal, and you know Gordon Ramsey cooks 688 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: the meal. Even though it's the same ingredients, the meal 689 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: is gonna taste different. So just because the players return 690 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: new coordinators doesn't look the same, right. 691 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I also think dan Quinn they'll be they'll 692 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 2: be fine. But yeah, no, I Dallas is I haven't. 693 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 2: I hadn't as a player team. I also think Philadelphia, 694 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 2: we can circle back to Thursday. Philadelphia is pulled back. 695 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 2: They dot they don't know quite what they are. And 696 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:11,240 Speaker 2: it's interesting because you know, they have a power running 697 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 2: quarterback and they signed into a big contract. And it's 698 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,240 Speaker 2: like when Russell Wilson signed his big deal, he didn't 699 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: want to run anymore. And then Jalen Hurt signs his 700 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 2: big deal, and my takeaway is if he plays only 701 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 2: four more years, that's worth the contract. He's a power 702 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 2: running quarterback, lean into what he is. It's almost like 703 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 2: some of these guys that run around when they signed 704 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 2: the big contracts, they think, okay, that's for a pocket quarterback. 705 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: It's like, no bro like Lamar Jackson today. I always 706 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 2: thought Lamar throws it better than people give him credit for, 707 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 2: you know, but I watched him today and he is 708 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 2: just a pain in the ass to defend. He's just 709 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:48,720 Speaker 2: he's just difficult. And Baltimore is a fascinating team because 710 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 2: none of these injuries I don't know than JK. Dobbins 711 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 2: are season ending injuries. I don't know how much of 712 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 2: you watch today. 713 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 1: I think both they look good. They look good. Lamar good, 714 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: I mean he was dynamic. 715 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 2: I thought he was dynamic, and I think, you know, 716 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 2: you start looking around at who can beat Patrick Mahomes. 717 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,479 Speaker 2: You take out the Chargers because we don't like the coach. 718 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 2: Forget Denver, Cincinnati sputtering, Buffalo makes too many mistakes. You know, 719 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 2: I look around it and I'm you know, Baltimore is 720 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 2: one of those teams like if Obj was healthy, Zay 721 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 2: Flowers plays well. Baltimore is just goofy enough counter to 722 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 2: what the league is. Do you find them to be 723 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 2: a legit kind of AFC championship team. I think they're 724 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 2: so different they're hard to prepare for. 725 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 1: I think a lot of these type players have come 726 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: into the league, really starting with Tyreek Hill and Deebo 727 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: and I think Waddle's like this. I think Zay Flowers, 728 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 1: he's a really dynamic player, and you put him on 729 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: that offense, he can he can do a lot like 730 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: you can play a receiver. You put him in the backfield, 731 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: you can get him end to rounds. He's added a 732 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: new el because you know, Baltimore is always going to 733 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 1: be solid on defense. Their culture of toughness when Lamar 734 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 1: is running around. Because I like what you said about Hurts, 735 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: I missed on hers. I thought he was I didn't 736 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: like him in college, but I said, hell, if you 737 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: can't play quarterback, he could just transition to become a 738 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 1: running back. His instincts as a runner or elite. What 739 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 1: do you do right away? When he came in the NFL, 740 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: he was a dynamic runner. Well, now it feels like 741 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: clearly they've told him be careful. Last year, you hurt 742 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: your shoulder. Lamar, today's run around like it's twenty nineteen. 743 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: Now Hurts is kind of feeling his way out. It's 744 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,839 Speaker 1: like Jalen either. They called some quarterback powers. Well, if 745 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna tell him he can't run fast, don't call 746 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,399 Speaker 1: those plays anymore. But that's a huge element of why 747 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: he's a fifty million dollar player. So now they're kind 748 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 1: of caught in no man's lamb. He's thinking he's not 749 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: running as fast. He's never gonna be. He's more of 750 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,399 Speaker 1: a rhythm player, kind of like Russell was in his peak. 751 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: He's not just gonna sit back and throw forty times 752 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: and go thirty seven to forty. That's not his style. 753 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: It's blended in with the runs like Lamar, and he 754 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: can outplay Mahomes in the Super Bowl. But when you 755 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,280 Speaker 1: take away one of those elements, new play callers clearly 756 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: not as good as Shane's ssiching. It's just it just 757 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: it looks a little weird. We're listen, the Ravens kept 758 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: talking We're gonna spread it out and throw. I've watched 759 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,479 Speaker 1: the first couple weeks. They're just kind of playing Raven 760 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: football again. 761 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I like, I think Baltimore leans into what 762 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 2: Lamar is, and I think what he is is the 763 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 2: fastest human being that's ever played quarterback. And if you 764 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 2: don't use that at silly and I still think Lamar 765 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 2: throws the ball better than people give him credit for. 766 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 2: You know, I was, I was thinking about it's you know, 767 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 2: I this weekend was an interesting weekend because you know, 768 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 2: there wasn't and nothing blew me away. I mean, I 769 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: can't hit a pick. I'm oh for nine on my picks. 770 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 2: I got Carolina tomorrow. I can't for the life of me, 771 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:39,720 Speaker 2: I can't get a pick. Was there anything this weekend? 772 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 2: I mean, Colorado almost lost the Colorado State was the 773 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 2: only surprising thing I saw this weekend. Was there anything 774 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 2: that took you back this weekend? Or like I thought, 775 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,800 Speaker 2: green Bay Atlanta. The line was one you know, I 776 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: don't I don't take much into it didn't shock me 777 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 2: that Seattle went on the road. Gino played pretty well 778 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 2: in one. Was there any did you have any takeaway 779 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 2: to you this weekend college or pro that it was 780 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 2: like a woe moment? 781 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: Well, one thing I might be wrong on and I 782 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: might have talked to you out of this because you 783 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: were loved them, and I was like, you know, I 784 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 1: think they're gonna be the worst team in the league. 785 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:14,919 Speaker 1: And it was the Rams a lot of you because 786 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: you liked a lot of the young players. Their young 787 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: players look pretty good. Yeah, and the one thing they 788 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: have is a big time head coach who is a 789 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,760 Speaker 1: fantastic play caller who's just awesome. I mean, Sean mcvazis 790 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 1: stud his quarterback went healthy, is a pretty freaking good player. 791 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: And you know, the Niners essentially won by ten. He 792 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: kicked the field goal with no time left, but to 793 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: make it a seven point game. RAMS team is pretty good. 794 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 1: If they had Cooper Cup on this squad, they're gonna 795 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: be able to score on a lot of people. If 796 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 1: Stafford playing healthy, they have some young speed on defense. 797 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: Number zero young the pass rush they drafted. He's flying 798 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: around Sean. I thought I misread that squad. They have 799 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: a little more talent than I thought, and obviously I 800 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: thought the quarterback was breaking down last year. He looked fantastic. 801 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: He looks like the version of the guy that they got. 802 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 1: Maybe they are more in the wild card mix and 803 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 1: not in the Caleb Williams sweet stakes than I realized. 804 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to pivot on that take. 805 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, so they have a rookie receiver from BYU. 806 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: He's fantastic. 807 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 2: Yeah so he's He's got twenty five catches and two. 808 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: Broke a record most ever in NFL history first two games. 809 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 2: So I think they're moving off Van Jefferson, who one 810 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,439 Speaker 2: of the picks today by Stafford was Van Jefferson didn't 811 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 2: run the right route, he didn't go vertically. He kind 812 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 2: of like faded on it. So if Cooper comes back 813 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 2: as a one, now they have a two. By the 814 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 2: way two two out, well looked like a bust. Now 815 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,319 Speaker 2: he's productive. You know what they do and they told 816 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 2: me they were going to do this. They just put 817 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 2: him in motion so you can't get your hands on 818 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 2: him fast and he gets a running start. He's just 819 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 2: too fast. So now they have and Tyler Higbey's a 820 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 2: very nice tight end. So now they have two two 821 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 2: at well Cooper Cup the rookie from BYU, And now 822 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 2: you're like, all right, now it's a real offense. Will 823 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 2: say this, here's a prime example. What I talk about. 824 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 2: Ten of the top eleven O lines were offensive coaches. 825 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 2: So Rob Havenstein, the right tackle is very good, and 826 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 2: they drafted a very good left guard out of TCU. 827 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 2: Everything else. They got a left tackle playing right guard. 828 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,280 Speaker 2: They got a guard who's a backup center now starting 829 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 2: at center. They have an undrafted guy planning left tackle. 830 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 2: It's a prime example. Sean McVeigh twice, Jared Goff's first 831 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:32,399 Speaker 2: year with him, and this year has basically taken an 832 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 2: offensive line that was a bit of a wreck and 833 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 2: solved it in a single off season. McDermott five years, 834 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: can't get it right. Tomlin six years, can't get the 835 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 2: O line right. Twice because the Niners didn't get as 836 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 2: much pressure as you think they would against an O 837 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 2: line outside of right tackle that's viewed as poor. 838 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,439 Speaker 1: They've i mean, we're getting to Colin. They weren't getting 839 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 1: any pressure so they've heard blitzing Fred Warner. 840 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 2: So it's like the Rams in two starts have done 841 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 2: a great job of production. You look at these defensive coaches. 842 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 2: They Andy Reid one off season got the old line right. 843 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 2: McVeigh did it with Whitworth. Mcveigh's done it. This is 844 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 2: the difference between offensive and defensive coaches. The ability because 845 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 2: during camp I was following the Rams offensive line stuff 846 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,240 Speaker 2: through the athletic I was following the young reporter. 847 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: It was a mess. 848 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 2: They were giving you like six different options and then 849 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 2: they ended up starting noteboom and a guard. They just 850 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 2: bailed on the tackle and they're good and highly functional. 851 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,240 Speaker 2: So I again, if Cooper cup comes back and plays, 852 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 2: what they'll be in the NFC is around a wild 853 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 2: card berth because let's be honest, Dallas is probably better 854 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 2: than we all thought Detroit did Detroit today, I think 855 00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 2: you're right. I think the Rams will be viable. I 856 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 2: think they'll be a wildcard team in the race. 857 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,800 Speaker 1: I think the NFC is a lot like college football 858 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 1: where the Cowboys Niners in the Eagles, they'll figure it 859 00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: out that there's just so much more talented. All the 860 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: other team are essentially like the Georgia's and Michigan's and 861 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: then everyone else is kind of buying, you know, for 862 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: spot four through seven, and we got Atlanta, Green Bay, Seattle, 863 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 1: the Rams, Detroit. They're all kind of in that world. 864 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: You know, there'll one team may win a playoff game, 865 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: but I don't see any of those teams beating the Eagles, 866 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: and definitely the Cowboys in the forty nine ers. 867 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, John Middlecoff, great stuff. Appreciate it, and 868 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 2: I'm gonna bring in Dave Wanstat tomorrow. I want to 869 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 2: talk about the Bears because I I really think it's 870 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,840 Speaker 2: a I think it's gonna get really ugly talk radio. 871 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 2: Chicago's one of the last cities in America, Philadelphia, Boston, 872 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 2: New York where talk radio has influence. That is all 873 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 2: people are going to talk about for the next seventy 874 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,280 Speaker 2: two hours. It's justin fields. 875 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 1: Well, could he could he get could he get benched? 876 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: Sometimes at some time this keeps going at this level, 877 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 1: you just ride it out. 878 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 2: I think they'll ride it out, but I think listen, 879 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 2: it's it's you know what happened? 880 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: John. 881 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 2: There's too much social media, there's too much video out there, 882 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 2: there's too much film. You have proof now. I went 883 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 2: before we came on tonight and looked up two different 884 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 2: things on the internet where there are people wide open downfield, 885 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 2: he appears to be looking at them, and he won't 886 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 2: let it go. There's just too much out there that 887 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:20,799 Speaker 2: works against him. Five and twenty two wide open receivers. 888 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 2: I mean, Baker Mayfield looks so much better today than 889 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,840 Speaker 2: justin fields. And again, talk radio is not the be 890 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 2: all end all, but everybody listens to it. In Chicago, 891 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:33,760 Speaker 2: New York, Boston, Philadelphia, they just do. In Los Angeles, 892 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 2: nobody's listening right. San Francisco a little bit, But a 893 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 2: lot of these markets, you know, Atlanta, it's just not 894 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 2: the same. I would love to listen to sports talk 895 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 2: radio in Chicago. 896 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 1: Tomorrow is going to be ugly, all right, John Grazibubsacon. 897 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 2: The Vine.
