Speaker 1: All right, let's bring in my buddy John Middlecoff, former

34
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: NFL scout his podcasts The Football One is three and out,

35
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: and we're not ready to go every week quite yet.

36
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: But when we start humming, get out of the way, folks,

37
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: We're like a fullback from the sixties. We're just gonna

38
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: run your ass over. Yeah. So I was reading a

39
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: story today and I thought of you, and I know

40
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: Steve Kyme really well. They got out and smoked a

41
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: few cigars and had dinner with Steve kai In the

42
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: former Arizona Cardinal GM who after you know, twenty five

43
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: years working for Michael Bidwell, you know, he's he doesn't

44
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: want to do it again. You know, he's like burnt

45
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: out still and people only knew the stories that fans

46
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: have no idea. But so I was thinking about this.

47
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: Bruce Arians was commenting about Kyder Murray and he was saying,

48
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: you know, he's still in the evaluation process, and I've

49
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: always backed him because my takeaway is that Jesus in

50
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: a division that had Pete Carroll, Sean McVay, Kyle Shanahan,

51
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: he had Cliff Kingsbury and took him to the playoffs,

52
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: It's like and mostly pretty mediocre, ol liones. And I'm like,

53
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: are you guys, this is the best coaching division in

54
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,559
Speaker 1: football at the top of Pete and Shanny and McVeigh

55
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: and Kyle got him in there. Kyler did. But I

56
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: as I was reading that with Bruce Arians, he had

57
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: real doubts on him. I mean real doubts that you know,

58
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: he's more legs than pocket and he completed sixty seven

59
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: percent of his throws and I can't find anybody anybody

60
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: I ever asked about Kyler Murray in the league is

61
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 1: like Noah out, and I'm like Jesus. He throws a

62
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: beautiful ball. He's elusive as hell. He's a playmaker, he's accurate.

63
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: People stuck with Justin fields to the last game against

64
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: Green Bay. People have bailed on Kyler and he can

65
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: freaking play the position. And I have this theory. So

66
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: I have a therapist friend, a lady, and she has

67
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: said there's there's a little bit. It's not an epidemic,

68
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: but it is an issue with men who are gamers

69
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: are bad for marriages. And this person has said she

70
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: has seen it repeatedly. People think, you know, guys get

71
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: into porn and it ruins a marriage. She's like, no

72
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: gaming gamers. She said, it's it's addictive.

73
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 3: Well, now it's communal because you can communicate with the

74
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 3: people you're playing with.

75
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: And you know, and I will be honest when I

76
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: hear a guy's a gamer and he's older, you know,

77
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: he's out of his teen years or he's passed like

78
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. You know, I tend to be like,

79
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: it's time to grow up. Come on, and you know,

80
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: most guys get married, have kids, even if they love

81
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: that stuff, they get out of it, they move on,

82
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: but a lot don't, and it's like an issue. Therapists

83
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: are seeing this and they've been seeing it for years,

84
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: like it's blowing up marriages, like guys that just can't stop.

85
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: It's not like getting a book John and going reading

86
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: it for thirty minutes or it's well, you know.

87
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 3: You can play continuous for ten twelve hours, no problem.

88
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: And so I think the stigma he's accurate. He's a playmaker.

89
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: He got a poorly owned franchise to the playoffs and

90
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: a tough division. I think the gaming thing is a

91
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: huge stigma, and I think older gms look at it

92
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: and think, Jesus, grow the fop Like this guy, you can't.

93
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 1: This guy's addicted to gaming.

94
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the gaming thing represents something that a

95
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 3: lot of people had questioned marks how hard was he

96
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: willing to work and how much did football mean to him?

97
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 3: Because there were some question marks early on in his career.

98
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 3: And the NFL is a lot like high school. There

99
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 3: aren't that many people there and everyone knows everybody, and

100
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 3: word travels fast because there is no disputing. Remember the

101
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 3: last one of the last games of the season he

102
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 3: played the Eagles. I mean he's single handed. He was

103
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 3: running around kicking their ass. He is, yes, you know,

104
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 3: Bryce Young also a small player, can't hold a candle.

105
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: Talent wise to that, not a candle.

106
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones, same thing. I mean, this guy is a

107
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 3: This guy's a legitimate top ten talent at the position

108
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 3: in the NFL that some people would say it's a

109
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 3: no go with his height, but he's kind of overcoming

110
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 3: it moments. And like you said, he's had a really

111
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 3: good year before quarterback.

112
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: People says the best Texas high school for well player. Ever.

113
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: He wins the Heisman, he gets Arizona the playoffs. The

114
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: fans don't like him, the media doesn't like him. Execs

115
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: don't like him. His owner doesn't like him. Like there's

116
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: something I've never seen a player this talented. Nobody's saying

117
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: be patient. People have bailed on him.

118
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 3: I always support, I mean I might criticize, but support

119
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 3: young guys Like I'm so much different of a human

120
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: than I was five years ago, let alone at twenty

121
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 3: two years old. So guys, not everyone is Peyton Manning

122
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 3: and Tom Brady at twenty three years old, Like Kyler

123
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: is much closer, especially to people at the other position,

124
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 3: but at quarterback there's no margin. Frere and I would

125
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: say this, I haven't played video games since college. But

126
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 3: maybe he just needs a girlfriend. Maybe he just maybe

127
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 3: he has one. But I'm with you. Other positions, though,

128
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,559
Speaker 3: I would imagine a lot of people, yeah, under thirty

129
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 3: in pro sports are playing video games.

130
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't bother me.

131
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 3: Is Mahomes spending much time on the video games during

132
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,119
Speaker 3: the season. Probably not, Josh Allen justin Herbert Jalen hurts.

133
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 3: You know. That's then other thing. How much does this

134
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 3: like to work? You know, even Jalen Right had a

135
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 3: bump a year last year. No one ever questions his

136
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 3: love of football and hard he's willing to work. Now.

137
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 3: Is he gonna be good enough next couple of years.

138
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 3: We'll find out, but no one. And I think that's

139
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: the big question mark with Kyler. And you know these

140
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 3: gms and personnel people that's like, I'm out, Yeah, I'm

141
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 3: out because I can't risk it. I can't bet on

142
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: you that you will figure it out before it's too late.

143
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. I guess my take on Kyler is he is

144
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: the most talented quarterback in my life that has no

145
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: support groupe. I've never said, I mean people have. I

146
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: mean Jordan Love didn't play for three years, was terrible

147
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: in September in his fourth year, and everybody was yelling

148
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: give him time.

149
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: The difference, though, is Jordan Love not a highly recruited guy.

150
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 3: Goes to Utah State. I've been their beautiful place, but

151
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 3: it's not the first choice for many quarterbacks, sits for

152
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 3: three and a half years, right, A lot of guys

153
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes, he has to go to Texas Tech. Josh

154
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 3: Allen Kung a scholarship offer. This guy didn't lose a

155
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 3: freaking game in high school. Like you said, a five

156
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 3: to nine player in the history of that state is

157
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 3: widely considered the best player. Then goes to Texas A

158
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 3: and M and at the time they were recruiting with

159
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 3: Kevin someblon just like Alabama or Georgia. Doesn't work out there,

160
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 3: goes immediately to Lincoln Riley, kicks everyone's ass, and then

161
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 3: goes to Arizona, who just drafted a quarterback. They're like,

162
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 3: get the hell out of here, we're going with this,

163
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 3: and then three years in they gave him a max contract.

164
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 3: It has a little NBA feel to it, and a

165
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 3: lot of NBA guys never snipped their potential because they

166
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 3: were given everything everything, and Arizona did. It never made

167
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 3: sense to me to pay him without like, hey, Kyler,

168
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 3: let's just see another year, and it backfired. I do

169
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 3: think the guys like I know a lot of Philly

170
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 3: guys that know Jonathan Gannon really well. They have a

171
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 3: young staff. I think both of his coordinators are under

172
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 3: thirty five. They do like him because they're coming in

173
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 3: fresh and he's been good. So people change. But you

174
00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 3: have to spend so much time as a quarterback. The difference.

175
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 3: You hear all these stories about these coaches working twenty hours,

176
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 3: and it's true. Quarterbacks aren't far behind, you know, the

177
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 3: wide receiver not even close, right, The dB doesn't have

178
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: to spend that time the quarterback is working. They're hours

179
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 3: the Saint Banker hours. You're not checking in the union

180
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 3: nine to five here, I mean, these are long you're

181
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: working for Steve Cohen on Wall Street up all night.

182
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 3: These guys are up at five am and they're not

183
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 3: going to bed, turning the you know the telegon. He

184
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,599
Speaker 3: doesn't have kids or anything yet. So yeah, this is

185
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 3: a big year for him, but he's under contract. He

186
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 3: got paid like he won Colin, he won financially, now

187
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 3: proving whether he can hang. It's tough division. We know

188
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 3: Seattle's gonna be tough. And the Niners and Rams, I mean,

189
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 3: are those two twelve win teams.

190
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it really jumps fast.

191
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 3: I enjoy watching him like I don't want to watch

192
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones. Right, Derek doesn't do much for me anymore

193
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 3: in New Orleans. Like, yes, boy, Kyler is an entertaining watch.

194
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: Oh, no question? Yeah, the you know, you know, it's

195
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: funny about I got into this conversation about quarterbacks that

196
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: the last twelve years, only two quarterbacks have won Super

197
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: Bowls stars Peyton, Brady Mahomes or guys who are talented

198
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: but yet to be paid. Russell Wilson and Flacco were

199
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: on the last year of their non their first year contract,

200
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: and then the Wentz Nick Foles team where those guys

201
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: weren't making any money. So essentially like that, that's it,

202
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: you know, Tua Dak good quarterbacks, big money, no chance.

203
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: And so I looked at all the teams. I came

204
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: up with twelve quarterbacks who were either I considered like

205
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: throw the ball, elite fashion, and it was Stafford and

206
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: Mahomes and Allen. I put Aaron Rodgers on there. I

207
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: put Lamar Jackson because I think he's elite, and Joe Burrow.

208
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: Those are the six, so they're in the Super Bowl bubble.

209
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: And then there were six other guys who I consider

210
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: really talented and inexpensive, all under twenty million dollars. A

211
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: cap hit Herbert. I think it was Jalen Hurtz, Jordan love,

212
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: brock Purty, I'm missing somebody else, but it was that group.

213
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 3: Would you throw GoF in there?

214
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: That's interesting? So Goff was the one quarterback on the

215
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: one team I didn't. He is not great and he's

216
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 1: too damn expensive. So over the last twelve years, there

217
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: are no Jared Goffs. There are no aus B plus

218
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and with no history. I mean, Peyton Manning was

219
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: older in Denver, but his brain was functioning. It's Peyton Manning.

220
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: He could still play. There are no golf winners. And

221
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: it was interesting because I came away and I said,

222
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 1: I actually liked this bubble. It was you know, Ravens, Bengals,

223
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: it was all the teams we like, you know Texans.

224
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: I think we both agree, and Packers are young, but

225
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 1: you wouldn't be shocked if they end up at a

226
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: conference championship and Detroit was my takeaway. And I also

227
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: love Dan Campbell's ability to build a culture. I don't

228
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 1: know if you get him in a game with a

229
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: Shanahan or Nany Reid if I feel so great about

230
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: highly emotional Dan Campbell. So here's a franchise. I love

231
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 1: a quarterback. I've been higher on Goff. You and I have,

232
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: I think than almost anybody in the media. Love their roster.

233
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: It's a younger version of the Niners, but there are

234
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 1: no examples of Jared Goff winning a Super Bowl that

235
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: kind of pay and quarterback. And you know, it wouldn't

236
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 1: shock you if I said in five years they didn't

237
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl.

238
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 3: No, I mean, well, they're the Lions. But I do

239
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 3: think they have a unique window because of the trade

240
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 3: they met made with Stafford and how well they drafted

241
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 3: their team roster wise, feels more like a Ravens, right.

242
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 3: They always toe to toe with the Niners, and they

243
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 3: didn't have to lose any of those guys to sign

244
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 3: this contract. That's right now when the bill comes due

245
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 3: and his number starts hitting whatever. On a yearly basis,

246
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 3: twenty percent of the calf it's a little different, but

247
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 3: right now, on a man demand basis, I would say

248
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: they easily have a top five roster because the other

249
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 3: thing they have. I was talking to our guy, Jeff Schwartz,

250
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 3: who Oregon Duck. He's like, do you realize that Piney

251
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 3: Sewell is like twenty three to twenty four years old?

252
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 3: You know the players their young talent. That Jamier Gibbs,

253
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 3: the wide receiver, meets running back like he's a Christian McCaffrey,

254
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 3: Alvin Kamara, we saw Laporta. I'mon Saint Brown. They do

255
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 3: have a question mark at defensive back. Yeah, if you

256
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 3: have question marks at defensive back in twenty twenty four,

257
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 3: it can be a problem. But they did add in

258
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 3: the draft. They added Carlton Davis from Tampa Bay. So

259
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 3: if they're just the other thing, Colin is a lot

260
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 3: of times when you're a team that sucks and then

261
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 3: a couple of years later has success, people steal your

262
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 3: coaches for whatever reason. Ben Johnson doesn't want to be

263
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 3: a head coach. I mean he's turning down Josh Harris

264
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: as they're flying to see him. It's a unique situation

265
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: with him. So yeah, Dan is not mister schematic right,

266
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: he's not calling the place, but he didn't lose his

267
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 3: start coordinator and now they're defense just personnel wise, like,

268
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: I think they got a chance this year. They got

269
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 3: a real chance because there's a ton of pressure in

270
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,199
Speaker 3: San Francisco. I have to see how this IU thing

271
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 3: plays out. Jordan Loves got to do it for seventeen games, right,

272
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: So you look around Philly, we still got question marks

273
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 3: with Siriani. Now the roster is good, but I think

274
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 3: the lot it's this year now. Over the course of

275
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 3: the next three or four years, it gets more difficult

276
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 3: if you're not the fourth best quarterback, if you're closer

277
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 3: to eleven and you're making huge money. But I do

278
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 3: think you've you've seen if you can protect the guy

279
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 3: he's he's mentally tough. He's like a better version. He's

280
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 3: a different type player, but a lot like Alex Smith,

281
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: but I think better. Yeah, mentally tough, and that matters

282
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 3: in these playoff games. Alex is just so physically limited.

283
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 3: When Andy would get him to the playoffs, Jared has

284
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 3: more physical cap He can't run like that. But he

285
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 3: can throw and if you can protect him the NFC,

286
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 3: I mean, they should have won that game, and like

287
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 3: you said, it was a I thought it was pretty

288
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 3: reckless by Dan Campbell with the kick of the field goals.

289
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think this year they got a legit chance.

290
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 3: If you tell me the Lions, is it inconceivable? They're

291
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 3: the number one seed? Their division's hard, But I mean,

292
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 3: why couldn't they win. I don't know if San Francisco

293
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 3: is gonna win thirteen fourteen again, maybe they win eleven

294
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 3: because them in the Rams both eleven. What if the

295
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 3: Lions get to twelve or thirteen, have the one seed

296
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 3: and then they get to everything's in a dome.

297
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: I would argue the two best rosters in the NFL

298
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: are San Francisco and Detroit. The best teams are almost

299
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: all in the AFC. It's like when USC dominated the

300
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: Pac twelve. The conference was just awful, but USC was

301
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: the best program and basically they got every California recruit

302
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: they wanted. I think the Niners. If I said this

303
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: before last year, if you took the Niners and the

304
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: Lions and just we're gonna make a Pro Bowl team

305
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: out of these two teams it could compete with. I

306
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: mean literally the offensive line Trent Williams one side, Pinasal

307
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: the other. You literally, yeah, they would have hurt people.

308
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 1: So you know, it's I had Tom Brady on this week.

309
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: I saw that Tommy was good. He was good and and.

310
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 3: He's really.

311
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: I found people like Tom because everybody wants a piece

312
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: of Tom, Like when you get to that big and

313
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: and I know somebody that has that knows, uh, you

314
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: know President Barack Obama, former president pretty well, and it's

315
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: the same trait. They both have the same trait is

316
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: that you know, everybody wants a picture, everybody wants to

317
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: say hi, I remember this game.

318
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 3: And is he the most famous NFL player ever? Pretty

319
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 3: by a wide margin, you think at this point in time.

320
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: I think so, yeah, Yeah. Tom is really very very

321
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: normal and it's it's really interesting how efficient he is

322
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: in social situations, Like he like he meets you, it's

323
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: eye to eye. He responds, very cordial, very human, very personable,

324
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: and then you know he he's Escordon didn't come with

325
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: a big entourage, but it was really interesting to watch him.

326
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: Tom is a highly functional, very normal, really incredibly thoughtful guy.

327
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 1: And as I sat there for the interview. He has

328
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: a personality trait that I've always admired in people. Anything

329
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: you asked Tom about football anything, I was throwing these

330
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: goofy theories I have. Oh, he's thought about it. And

331
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: I've said this before in my life. One of the

332
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: people a couple of the people that are involved with

333
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: a volume and one of the reasons I was always

334
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: impressed with people that I included in this company is

335
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: when you ask somebody about, you know, media, and they

336
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: have an answer. Because I'm obsessed by not just sports,

337
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: but by the business of sports, and so I think

338
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,360
Speaker 1: about stuff all the time that I don't talk about,

339
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: but I just think about it. And it was really

340
00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: impressive to me that Brady I'm throwing zany theory at him,

341
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: and Tom's literally he's thought of everything. And I think

342
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: he'll be a very good broadcaster like a player. I

343
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: think he'll just get better and better and better and

344
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: better because he's very hard on himself. Did you take

345
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: anything away from the interview that was kind of my

346
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: take that Tom's just literally thought of everything.

347
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 3: Well, it's about one hundred and twenty degrees here, So

348
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 3: I was in the pool a couple hours ago, and

349
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 3: you have a lot of time in the pool. You're

350
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 3: just kind of thinking. I was think about the most

351
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 3: famous athletes. I would say the last twenty five years.

352
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 3: You obviously Michael would probably be number one. Tiger be

353
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 3: right up there. And I think both those even what

354
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 3: Lebron is now, they do struggle when they're just in

355
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 3: a situation like that to feel relatable. I mean, Michael

356
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 3: never has Tiger's gotten a little better. I think with

357
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 3: his child he can be a little calmer. Lebron is

358
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 3: just in his own little world, just because that's the

359
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 3: way it's been for twenty plus years. I would put

360
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 3: Peyton in this category. Two. Both those two guys can

361
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 3: be in a situation like that and you go have

362
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,360
Speaker 3: a beer with that guy. Yeah, and l and they are.

363
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 3: You would never say that about Michael Jackson or Leonardo DiCaprio.

364
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,479
Speaker 3: Like the level of fame and Tom's higher than Peyton,

365
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 3: But I is it crazy? And I've always said that

366
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 3: Tom and Peyton were the Magic and Larry of my

367
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 3: generation what they meant for the NFL. And Tom's just

368
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 3: a very very unique person. If just to sit like that,

369
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 3: I looked at some of the YouTube comments because I

370
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 3: watched the interview on YouTube and everyone's like, how likable

371
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 3: is this guy? And I think it gets back to

372
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,719
Speaker 3: the sport. How one he went to whatever the highest

373
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 3: level of education is in America, he went to the

374
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 3: equivalent in New England for twenty years with Bill.

375
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

376
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 3: I mean, is it should any ls to be shocked

377
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 3: that all those former Patriots when you hear them talk

378
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 3: football can do it at a really high level, from

379
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 3: Matt like to Edelman to even Gronk when he's not

380
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,239
Speaker 3: screwing around. I mean, yeah, they've just been inundated with this,

381
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 3: but they were all held in the same level, and

382
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 3: there's a there's a humility because you didn't have a choice,

383
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 3: right and most of their teams were not super stacked.

384
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 3: The teams that were didn't win the Super Bowl, like

385
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 3: I mean, their core. Now, Julian Edelman was their best

386
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 3: wide receiver. Like Julian Edelman. I love the guy, but

387
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 3: he's never going to Canton or anything. And I just

388
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 3: think Tom it gets back to his family, how he

389
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 3: was grown up. This is what people are looking for. Obviously,

390
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 3: his success, you're not looking for that when you draft

391
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 3: a player, but his love of football, how good he

392
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 3: is with other people, how much he cares. Like these

393
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 3: traits that he displays and Peyton does this too, is

394
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 3: like everything you look for when you draft a player.

395
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 3: I mean, he's the highest level. He's like the mensa

396
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 3: whatever it becomes. But I just find him very easy

397
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 3: to listen to. And let's face it, most people that

398
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 3: are like Michael Jordan is not like that, right because

399
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 3: usually how could Tom relate to anybody? But he is

400
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 3: able to do that. He transitioned to Tampa, It's like

401
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 3: everyone loved him. It was like the practice squad guys

402
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 3: like he's taking pictures with kid. The star players are like,

403
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 3: He's the coolest guy we've ever been around. It's just

404
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,199
Speaker 3: a trait that not many people have. I think Mahomes

405
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 3: clearly has that. They have that going in Kansas City

406
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 3: right now, where everyone obviously some people make more money,

407
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 3: some people have more fame. Travis Kelsey has it. I

408
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 3: know he does. I mean the way that they view him,

409
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 3: and it's just.

410
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: Think about think about Mahomes's life. He's got a brother

411
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,719
Speaker 1: that makes the news, he's got a wife, he's got yeah,

412
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: he's got young kids. He's the best football player on

413
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: the planet. He's the face of a franchise, he's got

414
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: thirty eight endorsements, and he is just in a good mood.

415
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean, you watch him on that Netflix thing. He

416
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: is able to compartmentalize shit like I've never seen in

417
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 1: my life. Some people, John, some people just have it.

418
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: Mahomes has got wackiness and neediness and maintenance around him.

419
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 1: None of it bothers him.

420
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 3: You know. The other thing is, you know college football,

421
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 3: once you get to like Ohio State this year over

422
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 3: under in their regular season, how many tight games are

423
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 3: gonna be in when you put it in, Probably two,

424
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 3: like they're gonna be so much better, Or Georgia they

425
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 3: might be in two or three big games in the NFL,

426
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 3: And Thomas been saying this for twenty five years, and

427
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 3: every player, does you better come correct every single week,

428
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 3: like I don't get to just mail it in. Obviously

429
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 3: with that franchise, how hard Bill was on everybody. But

430
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 3: you will get beat by a four win team beats

431
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 3: a couple of playoff teams. Right. So when Tom was

432
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 3: talking about how serious he prepared, he never knew. He

433
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 3: never take an opponent lightly, He never took a series

434
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 3: off like you gotta be careful, and the preparation that

435
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 3: you were ready for in the first quarter might not

436
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 3: show till late in the game, and all of a

437
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 3: sudden you're tied against a four win team, and it's

438
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 3: it might be on Monday night football, it might be

439
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 3: their super Bowl. And I think that's what the NFL

440
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 3: has that the other sports don't like. I'm playing the

441
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 3: Lakers in February, winna, lose, whatever. Who cares you know?

442
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 3: In fairness that they got eighty two games? Or baseball?

443
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 3: Every baseball game tonight, we're recording this on Thursday. Does

444
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 3: any do any of them matter? Do any of them

445
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,160
Speaker 3: actually matter? Today's games? They just don't, But every Sunday

446
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 3: it does because it could be the difference of winning

447
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 3: your division not making a wild card. Is it getting

448
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 3: fired keeping your job?

449
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 1: Well, think about this, Think about the parody in the NFL.

450
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 1: There's there's there's about ten awful teams in baseball, ten

451
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: awful teams in the NBA. Take out New England. It's

452
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 1: a bad football team, awful And I imagine the Giants

453
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: are not going to be pretty bad. Carolina, I do

454
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: think will be much improved. And their schedule, boy, it's

455
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: it's it's got some potential wins. There. You got about

456
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: two teams that I think feel kind of hopeless. I

457
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: think the Raiders are talented. I just don't know rookie

458
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: coach Gardner Minshew. So let's say three teams that it

459
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: could be pretty scrappy. But I mean, if Minnesota is

460
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: a fourth place team, I think they have one of

461
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 1: the best young coaches, one of the best left tackles,

462
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: the best wide receiver, a top back, a top tight end,

463
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 1: edge rusher is better than you think. That's a fourth

464
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: place team. A fourth fifth place team in baseball or

465
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: the NBA, like Detroit is not even shit. They can't score.

466
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: Nobody can shoot. They have no shooters.

467
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 3: I think the thing people forget about Minnesota. They also

468
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 3: they added an edge rusher. They also drafted one. Remember

469
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 3: they had two first round picks, JJ and the kid

470
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 3: from Alabama. So yeah, I just think anytime you've been

471
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 3: around football your whole life, it's unlike any of these

472
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 3: other sports, and to do it over a long period

473
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 3: of time, you've just been humbled so many times. Even

474
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 3: if you're Tom. I mean Tom's had some of the

475
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 3: most historic losses in league history, right lost to the

476
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 3: Giants twice. I mean those are that he had an

477
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 3: undefeated team in the Super Bowl. So for all his

478
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 3: twenty eight to three they did not lose a game,

479
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 3: and a lot of those were not close. And then

480
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 3: Eli got him again, and then the Eagles with Nick

481
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 3: freaking fools beat him when he threw five hundred yards.

482
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, I just think he's a unique character in

483
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 3: the communication, which clearly you know, resonates and comes through

484
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 3: when he sits down with you. I just think it's cool.

485
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 3: Obviously got a lot of money, but he's got a

486
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 3: lot of money already. It's pretty cool that he wants

487
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 3: to do this. I just think that we don't get

488
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 3: very often, Like is Lebron ever calling a game on

489
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 3: one of these networks one day? No chance, right, So

490
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 3: it's just is Patrick Mahomes probably not, you know, So

491
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 3: I think it's it's gonna be a very very cool

492
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 3: experience and like everything, and it comes through when he's

493
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 3: talking to you, he takes his shit very seriously because

494
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,680
Speaker 3: he takes on everything very seriously.

495
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I was bouncing around. I wanted to

496
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: ask you a Niners question because you're so tied into

497
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: them that you used to live there and did radio

498
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 1: in the Bay Area. At you know, I was thinking

499
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,880
Speaker 1: about Brandon Ayuk and I like Brandon Ayuk a lot.

500
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,959
Speaker 1: I think. I think he's a top five six receiver

501
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: talent in the league. But it's really interesting because I

502
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: always say this a lot of what you make in life.

503
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: You know, I I how valuable forget your talent and productivity,

504
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: How valuable you are to a company. That's your leverage.

505
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: You can be talented companies. I mean, you know, Joe

506
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: Buck and Troigman are fantastic. You know in Fox at

507
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: some point made a decision, and so talent alone is

508
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: not getting you paid. It's your value. There's a lot

509
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: of great tight ends who have never made great money.

510
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,719
Speaker 1: There's a lot of great running backs. Sae Kwon Barkley

511
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: is a stud and you know there's not a huge

512
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: market for that. But if I look at the Niners,

513
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: here's my knock on Brandon Ayuk. The most important person

514
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 1: with the Niners is the brain of Kyle Shanahan, then

515
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: the of Christian McCaffrey, the pass rush of Bosa, I

516
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 1: would say, the versatility of Debo, and then the protection

517
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 1: of Trent Williams. I also think Kittle is a culture

518
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 1: center his physical style of play. So I'm at like

519
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: six people and they drafted two receivers I don't think

520
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: and Purdy's not a big deep ball thrower, nor do

521
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: really good teams allow a lot of deep balls when

522
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: you play them.

523
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 3: They're just not throwing go routes like most teams.

524
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, How valuable is he?

525
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 3: Well? I think it's they're in a tough spot. Let's

526
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 3: use this example. Let's say you're Kyle Shanahan and someone

527
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 3: wrote an article that at the volume John Middlecoff is

528
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 3: making more money than Shannon Sharp, you might have a

529
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 3: problem on your hands, right, Shannon might be on the

530
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 3: horn with you and Logan Well, Trent Williams makes twenty

531
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,359
Speaker 3: million dollars a year. He is widely considered one of

532
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 3: the most talented left tackles in the history of the sport,

533
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 3: and he's dominating right now. Christian McCaffrey got a raise,

534
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 3: but it was twenty million dollars. Fred Warner doesn't make

535
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 3: anywhere close to twenty million dollars. Brandy ACK's a really

536
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 3: good player, scheduled to make almost fifteen million dollars, but

537
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 3: they're offering him twenty five, twenty six. He's like, no,

538
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 3: I'm thirty one. Well you make thirty one in that

539
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 3: locker room. What you're double the value of Fred Warner

540
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 3: if you're Trent Williams, Like, we're all human beings, Like

541
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 3: I understand the market. Ever, I played left tackle and

542
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 3: this guy's making nine million dollars more than me. You

543
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 3: just you got potential problems. I think it's a tough spot. Obviously,

544
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 3: in a perfect world, I think what you would do now,

545
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 3: with the emergence of Christian McCaffrey last year and a half,

546
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 3: you would just get rid of debo. But deals have

547
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 3: already in, contracts have already been signed, so you're kind

548
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 3: of stuck right now. And his value on the open market,

549
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 3: given that he's so Kyle Shanahan dependent, Brandon Aate's a

550
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 3: really good player, He's a winning player. I would struggle

551
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 3: given the way they play, given the way they're built.

552
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 3: They also have some big picture question marks. We just

553
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 3: saw Trevor Lawrence. He got two hundred million dollars guaranteed,

554
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 3: has been objectively better. And I know Doug I talked

555
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 3: to him at the combine. Doug Love Trevor so Doug

556
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 3: was pushing that Kyle likes Purdy more than Doug likes

557
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence, and Doug likes Trevor Lawrence a lot. You know,

558
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 3: he's Kyle's in love with Broug Purdy here, So that

559
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,479
Speaker 3: number is gonna be huge, Trent Williams is getting You're

560
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 3: gonna have to figure out this left tackle thing. They

561
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 3: do not come cheap, whether you trade for a guy,

562
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 3: whether you mortgage a lot in the draft. I think

563
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 3: they're just in a weird spot right now. They have

564
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 3: a lot of really good players under contract making a

565
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 3: lot of money, and then they got this situation. A

566
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 3: couple of years ago. He was in the doghouse and

567
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 3: he's proven he's a winning player. But the way they play,

568
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 3: he's never catching ninety five balls get you never, Never,

569
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 3: you get paid for production. There's a reason, guys, whether

570
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 3: you're a winning player or losing player. You scored thirty

571
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 3: points in the NBA, you're getting a max contract. Right

572
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 3: Saint Brown is catching one hundred and twenty balls a year, Like,

573
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 3: give me my eighty million dollars. It's part of the deal.

574
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 3: So he catches seventy five Now he has a lot

575
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 3: of yards and he's a really really good player. Is

576
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,719
Speaker 3: is he ever a top seven wide receiver in the NFL.

577
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 3: So because they paid premiums for Williams best left tackle,

578
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 3: Fred Warner, best linebacker, Kittle second or first tight end, McCaffrey,

579
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 3: best running back, so it's like they are comfortable doing that, Deebo.

580
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 3: They were in a tough spot. Yeah, I think they

581
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 3: kind of got pushed against the wall. He had just

582
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 3: carried them with Jimmy Garoppolo being terrible to the NFC chair.

583
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: And I think I do think his versatility is unique.

584
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 3: But then they six months later they got to trade

585
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 3: for Christian McCaffrey. If they would have known McCaffrey was coming,

586
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 3: they probably just would have unloaded him that offseason, but

587
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 3: it hadn't happened yet. I don't know. I could see

588
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 3: a scenario where they play this out, which they're not

589
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 3: gonna want to do because the drama that comes with that.

590
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 3: I could definitely see a trade. And I could definitely

591
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 3: just see because sometimes a coach just get it done.

592
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 3: Let's over quote unquote pay. But then you have to

593
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 3: worry about the locker room dynamics. And I think the

594
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 3: forty nine ers one thing they've really had and Kyle

595
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 3: does a great job of this. He's been around his

596
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 3: whole life with his dad, New England. Everyone's pretty tight.

597
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 3: Everyone's rowing in the same way. They don't do a

598
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 3: lot of bs, you know, and when it comes, it

599
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 3: just doesn't they get rid of it fast. So I

600
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 3: this is a weird spot because he's now vlogging his

601
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 3: off season. You know, Kashi Andhan might be young, but

602
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: he's an old soul. He's not really into all that

603
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 3: crap and it's probably a headache to him right now.

604
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so too. So I want you to

605
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: pick a team that is considered a bad team. And

606
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 1: you know I've done this every year. A couple of

607
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: years ago, I beat on this drum, I swear for

608
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: six months. The Minnesota Vikings. I'm like, this is a

609
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: this is a ten eleven, twelve win team, and they

610
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 1: were like they were undervalued.

611
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 3: They were headed to the playoffs last year until Cousins

612
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 3: ripped his achilles.

613
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I am. I think I'm in the minority here.

614
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: I want you to think I'll go first of a

615
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 1: team you thinks undervalued. I think it's Denver. So they

616
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 1: drafted a edge rusher that is an area of need.

617
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: If you go back to last year, the defense was

618
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,479
Speaker 1: the issue. They got the most you could get if

619
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: you go really look at Russell Wilson's stats. Now, Russell

620
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: doesn't see the field particularly well, but they've got a

621
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: number one receiver in Courtland Sutton. The offensive line was

622
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: rated seven. I like their backs capable at tight end again,

623
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: a number one receiver. I think the old lines better

624
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: than people think. One of the smartest play designers and

625
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 1: callers in the sport. The Raiders are not going to

626
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: be great. The Chargers will probably take a while to

627
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: get where they want to get. They're not going to

628
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: be terribly explosive vertically. The Chargers can beat teams, but

629
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: they're a little bit like Kansas City last year. They're

630
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: not blowing people out.

631
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 3: He's going to try to play in twenty to seventeen

632
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 3: type games.

633
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: Oh, every week. They're going to be in games with

634
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Kansas City doesn't blow people out anymore, or

635
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: she Rice is a bit of a mess. They have

636
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: a rookie. Chargers won't blow people out. They could absolutely

637
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: beat both of those team once. They could beat the

638
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: Raiders twice. They're over unders five and a half, if

639
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 1: the kid they drafted, if the edge rusher works. By

640
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: the way, Mems last year became a really nice piece.

641
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 1: That's why they moved off Jerry Judy. They went and

642
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: got another receiver. I it's hard when I when you

643
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: say smart coach, good offensive line, automatic wins in division.

644
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,719
Speaker 1: Bo Nicks had sixty one starts. If he's capable, if

645
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: he's Russell Wilson capable, I think they're like an eight

646
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: win team. I'm not saying playoffs, but five Jesus John

647
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 1: five and twelve is Carolina. It's unwatchable. I don't think

648
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: Denver's gonna be unwatchable.

649
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think bo Nicks. I remember watching him right

650
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 3: after the draft. He kind of had some like Jimmy

651
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 3: Garoppolo Derek Carr coming out of college, and when those

652
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 3: guys were young, they would have been perfect for Sean

653
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 3: Payton when he was transitioning away from Drew Brees. You know,

654
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 3: this team win loss wise. They've been in the mix,

655
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 3: but no one really took them that seriously. Seattle's offensive

656
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,800
Speaker 3: personnel is pretty awesome. I mean, Dk Metcalf's like Terrell Owens,

657
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 3: Jackson Walker. They've improved the offensive line. Their defense for

658
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 3: a team that's drafted defense that's traded for defense has

659
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 3: been a kneemick these last two years, which is crazy

660
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,359
Speaker 3: because you remove the last like three year stretch. Pete

661
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 3: Carroll's easily one of the best defensive minds over the

662
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 3: last thirty plus years, right, but it it fell apart

663
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 3: at the end. Gino Smith, I'm not the biggest believer,

664
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 3: but he has not really been their issue of just

665
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 3: being competed. It's their defense. They couldn't stop the soul. Well,

666
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 3: they get the boy genius from Baltimore who easily had

667
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 3: the best defense in the league last year. Listen, Stafford's

668
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 3: already kind of bitching and moaning and I need a

669
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 3: little more money. And Stafford was awesome last year, but

670
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 3: that elbow goes. We've seen what happens. If he's on

671
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 3: the shelf. It's one thing. If he misses one game,

672
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 3: it's another thing. If he misses a month and a half.

673
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 3: You know, he's the lynchpin of the whole operation. If

674
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,479
Speaker 3: if something were to have happened to Stafford, I could

675
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 3: see Seattle being right there because you can already tell

676
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 3: like are the rams, Like do you really want to

677
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 3: double down on this. It was an awesome season. Can we

678
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 3: just play out the contract? To me, Seattle is a

679
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 3: quarterback away in the next couple of years. I'm sure

680
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 3: Schneider is going to be all over him in the

681
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 3: draft this year. I think that they are a very

682
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 3: unique spot equipped in the future. If they could ever

683
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 3: find just even get their Brock purty 'or just a

684
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 3: guy that's really good, cheap contract, they would be a problem.

685
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 3: Because what Mike McDaniel or Mike McDonald did these last

686
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,720
Speaker 3: two years, and specifically last year, I mean they Colin

687
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 3: he embarrassed Kyle Shanahan. On Christmas night, I had a

688
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 3: buddy on the Baltimore Ravens staff. They were all calling

689
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 3: him boy genius around the room like he is a

690
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 3: special defensive schematic guy, and he listened. We questioned that

691
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 3: that side of the ball running a team, but he

692
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 3: does inherit players everywhere on offense and we'll see. I mean,

693
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 3: Ryan Grubb a lot of success coaching now going to

694
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 3: the NFL is a little bit different. But what he

695
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 3: just did in Washington, a lot of NFL people are watching.

696
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 3: I'm not shocked to John, you know, and uh, they

697
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 3: hired him to be the offensive coordinator. So they're a

698
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,320
Speaker 3: team I would say this year is going to be interesting,

699
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 3: but they're they're a bo Knicks whoever their guy is

700
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 3: over the next couple of years away from being like

701
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,400
Speaker 3: they could be a problem.

702
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: All right, let's flip it. Let's find a team that

703
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 1: we think is a bit overvalued. I want to pull

704
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: back on Houston so badly, but Jesus, I just love

705
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: everything they're doing, every move they make, every draft pick.

706
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 3: I love what well run, and they got a good coach,

707
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 3: and what their quarterback does is sustainable. He's a pocket quarterback.

708
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: So you know, I think, I think about this. I

709
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: really do wonder if Aaron Rodgers is upright. The Miami

710
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: Dolphins concerned me. Basically, it's a It's a three headed team.

711
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 1: It's Jalen Wan Tyreek Hill and Tua. Tua was healthy

712
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: last year, one of the only healthy years of his life.

713
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 1: The Jets, if Aaron's upright, are going to be much better.

714
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: New England's bad. Those are two wins. Buffalo's Buffalo. Their

715
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:18,320
Speaker 1: schedule is not easy. The AFC. Here comes Burrow, Deshaun

716
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 1: Watson's coming back. Aaron Rodgers is coming back. Shit man,

717
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: last year was the year the getting was good. If

718
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: you're an AFC team like it was, it was everybody's

719
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:33,760
Speaker 1: banged up. Trevor Lawrence wasn't healthy, Anthony Richardson got hurt. CJ.

720
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: Stroud's a baby, didn't a Dolphins have.

721
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 3: Like a four game lead after Thanksgiving? I mean, how

722
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 3: the hell did they blow that division?

723
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,800
Speaker 1: And I look at Miami and I'm like, I could

724
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: see them just I could just see this thing with

725
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: a little injury to too early, I could see it

726
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: nose diving. I think Miami's the team that I think,

727
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: to myself, God, last year was I mean, they're literally

728
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: weather affected when they go north and later in this season,

729
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 1: Miami's the team that everybody's high on. I could see

730
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: it being a bit of a mess with yours.

731
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 3: I don't take them seriously at all. I don't care

732
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 3: what their record is in September. Go four and zero

733
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,439
Speaker 3: in September, seeing that then they've done that. The best

734
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 3: teams in their conference all playing freezing cold weather, not

735
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 3: like cold weather, frigid weather, so they have no shot.

736
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 3: I think the coult Are team that I'm high on.

737
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 3: Their coaches stud your guy Ballard has done a really

738
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 3: good job. I think their roster's really good. They were

739
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 3: a bad Gardner Minshew swing route from beating the Houston

740
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 3: Texans and winning the division. Yeah, but their quarterback has played.

741
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 3: He's much more physically gifted and much more talented. But

742
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 3: a little Trey Lancy, he just hasn't played much football

743
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 3: over several years now, So you're you're very dependent on

744
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 3: this guy. It's like, well, if he's awesome, well yeah,

745
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:58,760
Speaker 3: I mean I haven't really seen him on the field.

746
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 3: And then last year it's one thing to get hit

747
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 3: by Ray Lewis writer John Lynch in their prime and

748
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 3: get a broken shoulder or whatever. He had some injuries

749
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 3: where you're like, I didn't even think that hit was

750
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 3: that violent. And the thing about football is some guys

751
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 3: are just durable. They just this guy, this guy never

752
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 3: missed a game and fifteen years. Yeah, yeah, look at

753
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 3: Jerry Rice's career, sixteen for sixteen. So it just goes

754
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 3: on forever. The occasional you break a leg or whatever,

755
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 3: but like you start having concussions shoulder issues, that concerns me.

756
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 3: I'm probably gonna pick them to make the playoffs, but

757
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 3: I can't feel good. I mean, their quarterback has played

758
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 3: a combined I don't know how many games he played

759
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 3: last year, three or four, and then before coming out

760
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 3: of college he had played thirteen career games. That's the

761
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 3: thing with this class, right. Henks has been playing for

762
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 3: six years. Bo Nick's sixty one career starts. Caleb Williams

763
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,399
Speaker 3: started every game after Oklahoma told Spencer Rattler to go,

764
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,959
Speaker 3: you know, to the pine. JJ McCarthy like, you've seen

765
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,720
Speaker 3: these guys be on the field for a long time.

766
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 3: People get very like you with Kyler, Murray lazy, not

767
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:06,839
Speaker 3: into it, terrifies teams. Half the leaks is out. The

768
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 3: injury stuff is tough because you're like, well, what if

769
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 3: it's just a weird couple of years stretch and then

770
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 3: he plays seven straight years, or what if it's just

771
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 3: something that snowballs. You really don't know. You're just completely

772
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,240
Speaker 3: taking in an educated guess. Half the times the doctors

773
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 3: tell you we can't draft this guy. This guy goes

774
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 3: on Navin eight your career and the doctor tells you

775
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 3: to draft this guy. He's got a degenerate knee. So

776
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,720
Speaker 3: it's just it's tough. But that is going to concern

777
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 3: me picking them. But if I picked the Bengals. Isn't

778
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow's wrist injury that I don't know if you

779
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 3: read about it, Yea, It's not like a broken leg

780
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 3: or an ACL that's basically feels like one hundred percent recovery.

781
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 3: It's a much smaller percentage. Not arthritis, but pain and

782
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 3: just the throbbing as you're working back from it is unavoidable.

783
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 3: He's a quarterback, so he kind of needs to use it.

784
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 3: I love watching the guy play, and he's the only

785
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 3: guy in the AFC that went toe to toe with

786
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 3: Mahmes and took him down on the road. Yeah, but

787
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 3: like that, that injury is has a little baseball feel

788
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,879
Speaker 3: to it, where you're like that picture was never the same, right.

789
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 3: I hope that's not the case, but it's it's it's scary.

790
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: All right. I gotta ask you a golf question, go

791
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 1: lo Is John's podcast. John is first of all, not

792
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 1: only a great golf analyst, a good golf better. But

793
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: I'm a huge Rory McElroy fan and I was just

794
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 1: I was really pulling for him. I think Bryson to

795
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 1: Shamba has done a really good job to pivot and

796
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: he's become incredibly likable, and especially when Rory peeled out

797
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: and left early, I guarantee it. Deshambo heard that and

798
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: decided I'm saying here for three hours signing every autograph.

799
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 1: I just to Shambo's personality is Oh, Rory split and

800
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,359
Speaker 1: didn't dodge anybody. I'm beer all night. So these guys

801
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 1: are all competitive, if they're all alphas, it's interesting. So

802
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: in defense of Rory, golf is so strange. I think

803
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: it's the USGA. They put a tournament right before a

804
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 1: major and right after a major in the summer sun Like,

805
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 1: It's just that's not like these guys. So he skips

806
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 1: out on the Hartford, and I'm thinking to myself, you

807
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 1: know after a major, the intensity in the summer of

808
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: a major. These guys are worn out fans. I don't

809
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 1: think understand Sometimes maybe they do a golf major in

810
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: the summer. That shit, you're losing weight. I mean you are,

811
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,439
Speaker 1: it is, Oh it is You're losing eight pounds over

812
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 1: the course of four days. It is a grind in

813
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 1: that heat. So I kind of understood saying, guys, I

814
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 1: need rest, But I also in a weird way, he

815
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: is the face of the PGA. Better or worse now

816
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: is kind of.

817
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 3: Of all of golf. I would include Live. I mean,

818
00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 3: he's the most famous golfer right now that's not named

819
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:00,720
Speaker 3: Tiger or Phil.

820
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: I didn't love him bailing without congratulations. The Hartford I get,

821
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 1: missing the Hartford I get. I think that's some of

822
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: the structural bizarreness of golf, and some of their schedule

823
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:19,879
Speaker 1: is weird. But in the golf community, how was that

824
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: viewed him? Just basically I'm out of here peeling off well.

825
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 3: I think the unique thing about golf is when the

826
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 3: forty nine ers right guard blows it against Chris Jones

827
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 3: and the Niners lose a Super Bowl, no one can

828
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 3: relate to that. No one could block them, no one

829
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 3: could play guard. You can make fun of Luke all

830
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 3: you want, not playing defense, no one can do that.

831
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,359
Speaker 3: But anyone can go to Pinehurst for like four hundred

832
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 3: dollars and play the golf course, and a lot of

833
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 3: people have. They play golf and it's extremely hard, and

834
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,520
Speaker 3: that putt was really hard. He's not the first and

835
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 3: he won't be the last to have an incredible moment

836
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 3: of just the worst moment of his career. It's happening

837
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 3: before happen again in that sport. Because of the pace

838
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:05,320
Speaker 3: of the sport, right, there's a lot of time between shots.

839
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 3: There's a lot of build up to every shot, especially

840
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 3: on Sunday. You become one reason Bryson d Chambeau has

841
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 3: become very sympathetic. He lost his dad a couple of

842
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 3: years ago and he talks about it a lot. A

843
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 3: lot of people have lost their dad and it's just

844
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 3: whether you think he's kind of weird quirky. It's a

845
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 3: very relatable trait. The most relatable thing in golf is

846
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 3: when you fuck up, have a bad moment, blow a tournament.

847
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 3: Most people suck at golf. The average handycat's like eighteen.

848
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 3: Everyone can relate to missing that putt because ninety nine

849
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 3: percent of people miss it. When Phil Mickelson and I

850
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 3: think in six at wingfoot pumped it out of bounds

851
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,320
Speaker 3: when he was gonna win, that was his best chance ever.

852
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,839
Speaker 3: He faced the music and he became a very sympathetic

853
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 3: figure because it's a very relatable thing. Now everyone's like, well,

854
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 3: we know what they're gonna ask him. Yeah, him saying

855
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 3: this is awful, this sucks. I obviously wanted to make

856
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 3: that putt maybe even cries. I actually think it would

857
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 3: have drawn on even more people to him. I think

858
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,319
Speaker 3: he's a kind of polarizing guy because he went all

859
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 3: in on Anti Live and now he's saying we should

860
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,320
Speaker 3: get together, which he's right, I mean, they need to

861
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 3: get back. But I think a lot of people think

862
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 3: he can be full of shit. And yeah, that was

863
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:18,880
Speaker 3: a moment I think would have really ingratiated himself with

864
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 3: everybody because it's the most relatable thing ever. He missed

865
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 3: a three foot downhill. Every human being does it seven

866
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:29,240
Speaker 3: times around, and Bryson has really embraced this. Bryson lost

867
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 3: the PGA Championship by a shot, and war like, you know,

868
00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 3: stood up there, took the questions at the Masters, he

869
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,359
Speaker 3: was winning I think after two days, and then kind

870
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,919
Speaker 3: of fell apart at the weekend. Bryson's kind of really

871
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 3: embraced this whole entertaining entertainer thing. You know what, you

872
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,840
Speaker 3: know what he does And I was thinking about this

873
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 3: the other day. It's a very novel concept, he smiles.

874
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 3: Think about the funnest player you could argue, beside Michael

875
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 3: Jordan of my life, just most fun Steph. What does

876
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 3: he do a lot smiles. Why did everyone like Brett

877
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 3: Farr looked like he was having fun? You know, Tiger's unique.

878
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 3: He could be an asshole and not talk to everybody.

879
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 3: I mean, he was a rocket ship of dominance.

880
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,439
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan also was not terribly likable. It didn't matter.

881
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 3: Those guys are all time outliers. Most homes might end

882
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 3: up with like five super Bowls. Have a lot of fun.

883
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 3: He's enjoyable. Bryson's just smiling a lot. We don't lose.

884
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 3: He easily could have lost that, and I think Rory

885
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 3: kind of if he could have that back, it would

886
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 3: have been a real easy moment to just say what

887
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 3: everyone has experience that plays the sport and it's watching

888
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 3: missed the putt. It sucks. I'm devastated, you know, And

889
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 3: I he avoided Greg Norman talked after ninety six, which

890
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,320
Speaker 3: was way worse. He had a six shot lead. Rory

891
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 3: only had a lead of the back nine with like

892
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,000
Speaker 3: five holes to go, and Bryson was behind him, So

893
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 3: it was really it wasn't like a true five holes

894
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 3: to go because Bryson had the extra hole. But I thought,

895
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 3: I think he'd like to have that one back. But

896
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:07,040
Speaker 3: it's also golf. Right in the NBA, the MAVs, they lost,

897
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 3: it's win or loose. Rory did beat everybody else, and

898
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 3: he has been really good these last couple of years.

899
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,319
Speaker 3: He's beating literally everybody else. But part of golf is

900
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 3: like you gotta beat that one last guy or else.

901
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:19,879
Speaker 3: We all kind of go.

902
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, golf, golf. Golf kicks everybody's ass at one point,

903
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 1: even Tiger. I mean, Tiger had the greatest run ever.

904
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 1: It it will eventually, I mean you can barely operate. Yeah,

905
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 1: So it's you know, you know the funny part about Tiger.

906
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:38,240
Speaker 1: I remember this just as an aside. It's it's always

907
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: laughed when Tiger was in his kind of that eight

908
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: to ten year just it was different. I said this

909
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 1: today on FS one. This happens infrequently, but occasionally you

910
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,320
Speaker 1: will see an athlete. Michael qualified it as this Lebron

911
00:47:54,440 --> 00:48:00,439
Speaker 1: did in his prime that and Tiger didn't golf that.

912
00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: Even amongst all stars, John Jones UFC does this, even

913
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:12,359
Speaker 1: among the toughest guys in UFC, John is different. John

914
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,320
Speaker 1: is tougher than all of them that take the toughest

915
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: guys and John Jones like literally just is faster and

916
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:23,680
Speaker 1: more violent. And I when Tiger was in his prime.

917
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: One of the things I always because I love golf,

918
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 1: I'll play it. I'm going on vacation, I'll play it

919
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,799
Speaker 1: three or four times. I love golf, but just just

920
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 1: Northeast golfer, No northern California. But I hit enough shots

921
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:37,680
Speaker 1: that I'm proud of that it brings me back every time.

922
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 3: Have a Vodkasoda out there, kick your feet up and.

923
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:44,760
Speaker 1: Oh more than one yeah, and you know how they'll

924
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 1: do a slow mow of the golf swing and the

925
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: analysts will break it down. Tiger was coming out of

926
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: his shoes.

927
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:53,319
Speaker 3: It was.

928
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 1: If he wasn't named Tiger Woods, if he was Bob

929
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 1: Woods and Tapeka, you'd be like, holy crap, this.

930
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 3: Is a mess.

931
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:08,799
Speaker 1: He's over swinging. Tiger was the level of the torque

932
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:13,920
Speaker 1: in his swing. In his prime. He broke rules, but

933
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: he was Tiger and it was like, okay, it was.

934
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,759
Speaker 1: It was different. And I always think about that when

935
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,359
Speaker 1: I think of greatness. Is I mean mahomes is doing

936
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 1: behind the back stuff, left handed stuff, the stuff stuff

937
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 1: took shots in his prime you would have been benched

938
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 1: for ten years earlier.

939
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 3: Well, part of golf too, is equipment. The equipment over

940
00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 3: the last I'd say twelve plus years has gotten so extreme.

941
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 3: All these guys can hit it three hundred and forty yards.

942
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,279
Speaker 3: I mean Bryson's hit at three to eighty. Tiger was

943
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 3: hitting it three hundred and thirty, three hundred and forty

944
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 3: yards with clubs that had no business going over two

945
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 3: hundred and ninety yards. So what he was able to

946
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 3: do with his power, his velocity, and as he got

947
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 3: a little older, that linebacker strength. It's like if you

948
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 3: could play eighty two games ten straight years in the

949
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 3: seventies when you were wearing those little shitty shoes and

950
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 3: no tape on your ankle, like that is remarkable accomplishment.

951
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 3: What Tiger did with his equipment, like what Bryson's doing

952
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 3: with his equipment, is impressive, but he's specifically training for it.

953
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 3: He specifically made these clubs like it is Taylor made

954
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 3: to do that. That did not exist in nineteen ninety

955
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:27,240
Speaker 3: seven or two thousand, even up through Tiger's like prime

956
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 3: probably four five six. Now, the reason Tiger at forty

957
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 3: five could win the Masters in twenty nineteen is equipment.

958
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:36,600
Speaker 3: You know, if he had the old equipment, he wouldn't

959
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 3: probably wouldn't been able to won at that age. But yeah,

960
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 3: I mean I think he he's a lot. You know,

961
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 3: you hear these stories of Stevie Williams. I'll fall into

962
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 3: it on YouTube on the algorithm and he'll be like, yeah,

963
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 3: we won the Arnold Palmer and Tiger had to hit

964
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:55,760
Speaker 3: a twenty five foot putt to make it. And after

965
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 3: we got all the hooplau and he except at the trophy,

966
00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 3: he looked at me. He said, I'm so fucking pissed.

967
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 3: I should have been three feet, not twenty feet. So

968
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 3: we flew right back to Orlando. The next morning at

969
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 3: seven am, he's practicing that shot for three hours in

970
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,320
Speaker 3: the dead of summer sweating. Is that you know that

971
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 3: that drive that you hear to talk? No one has that?

972
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,560
Speaker 3: And I do actually think Bryson. If Bryson was a

973
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 3: football player, he would have been the number one pick

974
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 3: in the draft. This guy, him, Jack and Tiger are

975
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 3: the only guys to win the US Amateur and multiple

976
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 3: US Opens. Three guys, Jack Nicholas, Tiger was Bryson d Champeau.

977
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 3: He also won the national championship in college. I mean,

978
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 3: this guy's a blue Chipper in the sport of golf.

979
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:38,240
Speaker 3: It's different. He's quirky, but I think we talk about maturity.

980
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 3: He's kind of just come into his own the YouTube

981
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:42,920
Speaker 3: stuff Live allows him to do that. He's having a blast.

982
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 3: He's popular, but he's really good. I mean he's really good,

983
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,760
Speaker 3: and I feel like he's more likely to win five

984
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:52,839
Speaker 3: majors when his career is over than stick at the two.

985
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 3: Like he ain't going away.

986
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's his world golf ranking right now?

987
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,320
Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't exist because he'll not live behind Scottie

988
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 3: Scheffler and Rory Like he's there's no difference of those

989
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 3: three guys.

990
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 1: I don't get it.

991
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 3: Well, the Olympics, he can't go to the Olympics because

992
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 3: he doesn't get any points. It's like, what are we doing?

993
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:19,959
Speaker 1: I Gulfs of Barnyard musical? But God, Major, I love

994
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:25,160
Speaker 1: majors so much, John, I'm gonna be for I've never

995
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:29,359
Speaker 1: taken a two week vacation while I'm on the air.

996
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: This is the first. My bosses have been incredibly accommodating,

997
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,279
Speaker 1: and I told both of them. I just said, I'm

998
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 1: a little burned out and I just need two weeks

999
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:43,440
Speaker 1: with my family, and thank god people at Fox. Literally

1000
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: they came to me and said, take the month off.

1001
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, I can't take a month off. I'm not

1002
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 1: built that way. I gotta work, so I'll be infrequent,

1003
