Get it before it's gone. All right, 18 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: we bring in Nick. Right, let's start with this. This. 19 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: Most of my life in college football, I feel like 20 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: by mid October I know who's going to play for 21 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: the National championship, barring some big upset. I honestly believe 22 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: there's five teams in the league. They have all sorts 23 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: of great and they've separated from the league Kansas City, Miami, Buffalo, 24 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: San Francisco, and Philly. I think Dallas has three great players, 25 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, Micah Parsons and Trayvon Diggs, and they've lost one. 26 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: I don't think they're a great team because they don't 27 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: have a great quarterback or a great coach. Generally, in 28 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: this league, three things make you great. A great coach, 29 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: a great quarterback, and a great pass rusher. That's why 30 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: I never worried about the Chiefs in their opening loss. 31 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: And their defense is going to be sensational. It's why 32 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: if Burrow could get it right now, they won tonight. 33 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: If Burrow could get it right, you know they've got 34 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: I think, a smart young coach, a great quarterback, and 35 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: a great edge rusher who had a field day against 36 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: the backup tackle for the Rams. I honestly think there's 37 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: five teams in this league. Like Philadelphia's roster is great, 38 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 1: San Francisco's roster is great. Josh Allen is just a 39 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: tornado of activity. I mean He's just a massive game 40 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: changing athlete, and they have a good defense. Miami's offense 41 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: is like a track meet, and Kansas City's got the 42 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: best coaching quarterback on the planet. After that, I think 43 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: as quarterback becomes more important and pass rusher due to 44 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: the importance of the quarterback becomes more centric to the 45 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: winning in this sport, there's a big gap. There's a 46 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: big gap. 47 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 2: I listen, I think I would include Dallas in the 48 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 2: group that you have because I think whatever questions you 49 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: have about Dak, I think you've got to have the same, 50 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 2: if not more, about Purdy. Now we can say Shanahan 51 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: is a far greater coach than Mike McCarthy. The Mike 52 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 2: McCarthy fans would say, well, you know, Mike McCarthy's actually 53 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 2: won a Super Bowl. Kyle Shanahan, you know what I mean, 54 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 2: has not. But I do think Shanahan obviously is a 55 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: more you know, innovative play designer and things. I mean, 56 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 2: I think he's a better coach than Mike McCarthy. What 57 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: I think is interesting about your group of teams is 58 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: there are the Miami piece of it is so fascinating 59 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: because they just scored seventy points, and it looked like 60 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: it was easy. They theoretically have Jalen Ramsey coming back. 61 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if he will, but you know, they 62 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 2: seem to believe he will. They have, you know, maybe 63 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: a top three coach, certainly a top three offensive coach, 64 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: and Mike McDaniel a decordinator kind of in the mold 65 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: of In my opinion, what the Chiefs did was Spagnolo 66 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: be like, Okay, you were a great defensive coordinator. It 67 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: got you a head coaching job, and Vic Fangio that 68 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 2: didn't work out. This is what supposed to be. Some 69 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 2: people are just made to be coordinators, and Vic Fangio 70 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: is that. So they check all these boxes and the 71 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: one obvious kind of you know, ominous cloud over them 72 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: is to his health. And everybody's nervous about it. So 73 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 2: here's what I said today, and I'm curious your thoughts 74 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: on it. Let me throw a hypothetical at you. If 75 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins were in the midst of a contract 76 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: negotiation with TUA and they had it ninety percent done, 77 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,119 Speaker 2: It's like, okay, we're haggling over just the fine print. 78 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: We'll get it done the next few days. And then 79 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 2: he suffered a major concussion this past week. Would they 80 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: freeze the negotiation, I argue they would. Okay, well, they 81 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 2: broke off negotiations with him before the year started. Herbert 82 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: got his deal, Burrow got his deal, Lamar got his deal. 83 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: Tua just hung seventy on a team. Tua talk about 84 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 2: should have his agent. Dolphins would be like, guys, we 85 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 2: need to open those negotiations, and we need to do 86 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 2: it right now because while you, guys, you're the reason 87 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: you don't want to is because of my client's health. 88 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 2: Got it. The reason we're demanding we do it is 89 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: because of my client's health. You think you can win 90 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl? We think you can win the Super Bowl. 91 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: We would like that contract right now. We've never seen 92 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,119 Speaker 2: a quarterback do it. But if if to his agent 93 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 2: were to say, give us the rationale, why Justin Herbert 94 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: deserves a contract, my guy doesn't. There isn't one same draft, 95 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: So there are accomplishments. 96 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: There is one if you were great and I was great, 97 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: but you didn't show up as regularly and there were 98 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: concerns I with a we had about your health because 99 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: of a lifestyle. Now, obviously football, it's just a matter 100 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: of getting tackled. Yes, but if there was, people said, 101 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: you know this, Nick's just not dependable, Uh physically sure, right. 102 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 2: I agree with that entire I know, maybe I said 103 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: because Herber, no, Herbert doesn't have that issue, and Herbert 104 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: I totally agree. But the point I'm making is that 105 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: issue almost cuts both ways in this regard. That is 106 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: a concern of the Dolphins, it is also a concern 107 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: of I'm sure of Tua, which is why if there 108 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 2: was ever a player that should be fucking cutthroat about 109 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 2: his negotiation, it's Tua who should say you guys, you 110 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 2: guys want to blow up this special team that could 111 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,239 Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl. What do you think the Dolphins 112 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 2: would do if he said, I want a contractor I'm 113 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 2: not playing Sunday. Sunday one PM's the deadline. Would they 114 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: blow their season up? Ord they swallow hard and pay him. 115 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: I think they'd swallow hard and pay him. The other thing, too, 116 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: is going for him is, Guys, since I've been here, 117 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: you've tried to trade for Tom Brady or acquire Tom Brady, 118 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: trade for Deshaun Watson, Russell Wilson, You've flirted with Aaron Rodgers. 119 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: I'm now dropping seventy on people you've shown no loyalty 120 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 2: to me. I would like my goddamn money, and I'd 121 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 2: just be very curious what they do. I'd be very 122 00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: curious what they do. 123 00:06:59,120 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 3: Well. 124 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: I think they really like him, and he is. His 125 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: comp was Drew Brees, and you're seeing a lot of it. 126 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: He's a very quick, accurate distributor of the football. Not 127 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: terribly big, not great downfield. That's why they got him. 128 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,119 Speaker 1: Guys that are good after the catch, like Jalen Waddle 129 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: and Tyreek Hill, they're very good after the catch, so 130 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: I think they've managed them well. He's an easy guy 131 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: to root for. He was crapped on by Brian Flores 132 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: the concussion issue. I hope he gets paid. I would 133 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: really struggle to pay him too. I do believe he 134 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: would give. He's the kind of guy Herbert did this. 135 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: He would give the team a team friendly deal if 136 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: they said, listen, we'll pay early, but you got to 137 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: give us. We can't get trapped for six years if 138 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 1: you go down. Correct. 139 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: I'm not saying he should walk in there and say 140 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: I need a fully guaranteed contract. Or would be the 141 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: highest paid player ever, but he has just the fifth 142 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: year option. He has twenty million guaranteed for next season 143 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 2: and that's it for the rest of his contract. And 144 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 2: at one point, like you threw up that scenario of 145 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: you and me at work. Okay, let's just say that 146 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: exact scenario or to exist. And all of a sudden, 147 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 2: you know, our employer was in the midst of what 148 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: they considered, Oh my god, this might be the greatest 149 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: year we've had in thirty years. And it's because of Nick. 150 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 2: I might walk into the office and be like, you 151 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: might be worried about my drinking and my gambling, but 152 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 2: I'm not showing up next week if you don't pay 153 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: me more. And let's just call my bluff if you want. 154 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: But like, so, the NFL's very cutthroat, and we know 155 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 2: that when Trayvon Diggs got hurt. One of the first 156 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: it happened while I was on the air, and one 157 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: of the first things I did was Google. I was like, 158 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 2: didn't he just sign a new deal? And I saw 159 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: he did, and I was like, good, It's like, thank goodness, 160 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: I'm happy that he got paid two months ago. And 161 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: then I thought about it. I was like, man, if 162 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 2: I'm toua, I've got a lot of leverage. We're scoring, 163 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: We're taking knees and still scoring seventy. I might tell him, yeah, 164 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 2: you know, one hundred million guaranteed, you know, five years? Yeah, 165 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 2: now you know something like that. Yeah, where I have 166 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 2: some real safety. Yeah, you could get it right now. Yeah. 167 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: No, I I would consider that because one hundred million 168 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: is massively under the market. And if I said, listen, 169 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: we'll give you a year extension, we'll rework it. This 170 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: is massively under the market, but we want to take 171 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: care of you for life. Here's one hundred million in 172 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: the state of Florida with no tax. 173 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, like a three year, one hundred and twenty million 174 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,119 Speaker 2: dollar something like that, and where there's. 175 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: Some yeah, I would do that as a GM also 176 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: with a big signing bonus. It's not punitive if you 177 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: left in a year. I got one year and I 178 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: got two left. I just traft him too, a quarterback. 179 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: I'm not paying him anything. But what you worry about 180 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 1: is five years. That is Sean Watson. You can't get 181 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: out of that thing. 182 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: Can't get can't get out now. 183 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: But I do think I think there is some I 184 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: do think because Tua has had a rough road, he's 185 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: a good person, he's having a great season, and he's beloved. 186 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: I do think there is value where you say, guys, 187 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 1: let's do a three deal. We all know the elephant 188 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: in the room. It's no longer an elephant. We're discussing it. 189 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: We'll set him up for life, but we're not going 190 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: to do four and five years and it's gonna be 191 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: below market. And I, by the way, that's a gamble 192 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 1: by Tua. But I also think he's not money driven. 193 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: I don't. 194 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: Well, I think there's different types of gambles. Like I again, 195 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to this is maybe a personal example, 196 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 2: but I'll use it. And it's very different. I understand. 197 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 2: I have every contract I've ever signed, I've signed super early. 198 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 2: I've signed way earlier than I had to because I 199 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 2: really really valued it was different things. It was like 200 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: I had just moved to Houston to do radio, and 201 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: I'm like, if I just bought a house, like I'm 202 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 2: not going to try to maximize dollars on maximized security. 203 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 2: I had just moved to New York and put my 204 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: kids in private school. I'm like, I just wanted safety 205 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: and security. There's different times that you value different things 206 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 2: and then there's times where it's like, you know what, 207 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 2: been making a lot of money for a long time, 208 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 2: I'm pretty set up. I want it now. I want 209 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: to maximize as many dollars as possible. I did. People 210 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: reach different places in it. It makes sense for let 211 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: me let Joe Burrow, who seemed willing to take that 212 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 2: contract negotiation to the you know, the day before the 213 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 2: season started, because he's like, you know what, I was 214 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 2: the number one overall pick. I have all this money already. 215 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 2: Even if I were to suffer a major injury, you 216 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 2: would have the whole league lining up for me. I'm 217 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: going to maximize dollars. If you're TUA, it's like, yeah, 218 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 2: maybe in you know, I dreamt one day of being 219 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,599 Speaker 2: the highest paid player in the league. But there was 220 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 2: a time nine months ago I thought, am I never 221 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 2: playing football again? Okay? Well, in that case, I value 222 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 2: the security of you know what I mean, permanent financial stability. 223 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: So I think I think it could work for all parties. Listen, 224 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: we've all had fender benders in our life. Sometimes it's 225 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 2: even more. People between the ages of twenty five and 226 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 2: thirty four, in fact, have the highest amount of drivers 227 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,719 Speaker 2: involved in car crashes. Be careful, but even if it's 228 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 2: somebody else's mistake, you can lean on Morgan and Morgan. 229 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: If you've ever been injured, check out Morgan and Morgan. 230 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: It's the nation's largest injury law firm, one hundred offices 231 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: and over eight hundred lawyers with over fifteen billion that 232 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: to be billion dollars recovered with over three hundred thousand clients. 233 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: Morgan and Morgan has a proven track record of fighting 234 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: for you to get full and fair compensation. Fighting for 235 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: people for over thirty five years. Starting for an entire 236 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: football franchise as a rookie quarterback is hard. Submitting an 237 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: injury claim with Morgan and Morgan is easy. If you're 238 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: ever injured, check out Morgan and Morgan. Their fee is 239 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 1: free unless they win.

They're kind of finding their way. The 246 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: Rams had a great opportunity It's interesting the Rams are 247 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: in one of the They're not a huge brand in LA. 248 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: They're not nearly as big as the Dodgers, USC the Lakers. 249 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 1: They're really not. They're like fourth in town. I did 250 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: not think McKay had a McVeigh had a I thought 251 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: Sean McVay had a very poor night. Did not run 252 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,319 Speaker 1: the ball in the first half, which they've done particularly well, 253 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: didn't use the screen game as they were losing protection. 254 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: Stafford looked like he didn't practice. He was He missed 255 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: layup after layup. I just don't think mcvayh had a 256 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: good game plan. 257 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 2: Punted on fourth and five down ten with six minutes 258 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: left in one time out. I mean, what are you doing? 259 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I understand you the and now they punted 260 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: on fourth and five down ten with six minutes left 261 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: one time out. That guarantees if everything works out perfectly 262 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: for you, you're in an on site kick game. Yeah, 263 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 2: which is exactly what happened. Everything worked out perfect. They 264 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,719 Speaker 2: got the stop, they got the ball, they scored a 265 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 2: quick touchdown. Kicking onside kick you lose. 266 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 267 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 2: I mean I like McVay a lot. He was not 268 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: bathe than Gloriot no. 269 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: I thought Sean really struggled. I just thought he was 270 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: completely off, and coaches can be off and players can 271 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: be off. But I was saying this yesterday. I was 272 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: talking I think it was Jason McIntyre. I said it 273 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: on the air, and I texted him yesterday. It's the 274 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: strongest quarterback class ever. Arizona is not the worst team. 275 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: Chicago probably is. And you'd obviously take Kayleb Williams over 276 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: Justin Fields and start over. That's not even a discussion Arizona. 277 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: It's going to win the Arizona's gonna win three or 278 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: four games, and they're just not going to be there. 279 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: And they also there's also other quarterbacks. But I would 280 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: not take Drake mayover Kyler Murray. I would take Caleb 281 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: over everybody not named Mahomes, Josh Allen, you and I. 282 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: Are the only people saying this. People thought I was 283 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 2: out of my mind. I said that Caleb is one 284 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: of the five most valuable quarterbacks alive right now. Totally 285 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: like the if that if every NFL player and college 286 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 2: player were available, Mahomes goes one. There's some debate about 287 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: who goes to and Caleb goes before everyone other than 288 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 2: maybe three people. 289 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Josh Allen goes before him. I would take Burrow 290 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: before him. Although Burrell's injuries now are mounting. He can't 291 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: get through a preseason. He's hurt again. It does work. 292 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 2: I would have said Trevor three weeks ago, but I 293 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: thought that Trevor's been a little disappointing. But he's on 294 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 2: the short list. But that's that's it. Man. He goes 295 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 2: before this is not disrespectful. He goes in a heartbeat 296 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 2: before Hurts, before Lamar, before Tua, before that, he just does. 297 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: Caleb goes before all those totally agree. I wouldn't take 298 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: go ahead for Mahomes Alan Herbert. I think he's better 299 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: potentially than Trevor Lawrence, but you've kind of he's a 300 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: southern kid, it's a southern city. I think you go 301 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: with him, and then I think it gets Then I 302 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: my be the list that could. That's the list, and 303 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 2: I would take him over at Herbert. And I would 304 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 2: take him. 305 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: Over Herbert, and I wouldn't because I think Herbert has 306 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: been under coached. I mean they're on their second or 307 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: third coordinator, their second coach. I think if he had 308 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: a reasonable offensive coach, his numbers, I mean I watched 309 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: him Sunday. He is. 310 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: I mean, she didn't didn't play pretty well. He played pretty. 311 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: Well and without Austin Eckler, Mike Williams late, it's just 312 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: on the road. 313 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 2: But I interrupted you. You were talking about this quarterback class. 314 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 2: I think yeah, So I think there's about the Rams tanking. 315 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a bigger gap between Kayleb Williams, Drake May's 316 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: not playing particularly well and all the other guys Bo Nicks, 317 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: Michael Pennix had an injury. They're really good prospects. Caleb 318 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: is transformational. So I think the Rams are a fascinating team. 319 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: So Stafford's always been reckless and he's at injuries, and 320 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: there's those that believe around the organization. He's not redoing 321 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: his contract for them because he's gonna take all the 322 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: money and split. He doesn't want to play forever. Right, Like, 323 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: he's been beat up, he's made his money, he's got 324 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: his ring. He's not like Brady obsessed Manning. He's just 325 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: not And so they tried to rework his contract this offseason. 326 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: He's like, no thanks. And one of the reasons is 327 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: he's gonna take every penny. He moved down to the 328 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: stranded Manhattan Beach. I was told about a place he's 329 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: having a good time, and then he's gonna exit stage 330 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: right here. In a couple of years, I think my 331 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: guess is the Rams will draft somewhere in the middle 332 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: of the first somewhere between like thirteen and seventeen. They'll 333 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: finish like eight, nine to nine and eight somewhere around there, 334 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: and they're gonna have a big decision to make because 335 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 1: they've got they need a left they need a tackle, 336 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: they need another defensive lineman. They've got they're pretty good 337 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: at wide receiver, running back, safety, cornered. I mean, their 338 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 1: secondary's fine. They went heavy defense on the draft this year. 339 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: They have a couple of o linemen they need. But 340 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: the truth is they could. They could go in the 341 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 1: first round with a quarterback. They absolutely could, and then 342 00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: reset the clock go buy a left tackle. I'm fat 343 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: it Like tonight's a great example. Stafford's always been to 344 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: me such a hot and like sometimes he doesn't have 345 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: as good stuff. He's like a pitcher. He's like a 346 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: number two pitcher, like an ace. Verlander and his prime 347 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: usually had his stuff, so did Kershaw. The difference between 348 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: one and two the two. Guy didn't have his stuff 349 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: about every fourth start, and Stafford just doesn't have it. 350 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: On knights, his mechanics go sideways. He starts flipping it around. 351 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: Tonight was one of those nights, and I'm fascinated to 352 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:34,479 Speaker 1: think literally bailed on golf. I don't think it's crazy 353 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: to think he would move off Stafford and go draft. 354 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well listen, I so so there's I thought the 355 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 3: Rams should approach this year should have been we were 356 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 3: very chested out bragged o'shus about fuck them picks. 357 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 2: We then realized in short order kind of needed them picks. 358 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: We went from winning the super Bowl to bad. They're bad, 359 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? They just don't they have 360 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: They have four awesome players and then a bunch of 361 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: guys and now because mcveigh's a brilliant guy and they 362 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 2: do you know, you find a pooka nkuah, you'd make 363 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 2: do to that well into something you're gonna try to 364 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 2: piece it together. I thought before the year they should 365 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 2: have told Aaron Donald, give us four teams you'd like 366 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 2: to play for. We'll trade you to the one that 367 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 2: offers us the most. They should have told Cooper Cup 368 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 2: we're actually gonna trade you any whereover gives us the 369 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: best thing? You know? Do you maybe would Kansas City, 370 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 2: have you know, if he were healthy, have given away 371 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: a first round sure? If maybe? And they should have 372 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 2: traded Stafford and they should have just said, you know what, 373 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 2: we're sick of being We won a Super Bowl and 374 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 2: no one in LA cares about us. What if we 375 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 2: draft the kid from LA who just maybe won a 376 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 2: national championship at USC and Caleb Williams and we're gonna 377 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 2: be the worst team in FOOTB because we're gonna try 378 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 2: to be. And by the way, the other team that 379 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 2: everyone thinks is trying to be the worst team football, 380 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 2: they arezon the Cardinals. We play them twice. We can 381 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 2: make sure they have more wins than us because we 382 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 2: can throw those down. 383 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: By the way, like that, Joshua Dobbs is good enough 384 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 1: to win games. 385 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 2: Josh Dobbs shout out to josh Dobbs. Yeah, that's unbelievable. 386 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 2: I mean, he's been solid. So that's what I thought 387 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 2: they should have done. They didn't do it, So you're right, 388 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 2: they're going to be okay. Right, So then the answer 389 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 2: might be draft should or if they're drafting thirteen fourteen, 390 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: if they want someone to if they want, By the way, 391 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: that's not overdrafting him. 392 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: No, he is. 393 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: That is exactly where he's supposed to go, like middle 394 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 2: of the first round and that. And by the way, 395 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 2: if you're right, Stafford wants to play another year, Shadoor 396 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 2: is probably not the type of guy you want to 397 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: play immediately anyway, clean up the cap, then maybe that's 398 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 2: when you trade away. Some people get some picks back. 399 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 2: But the Rams, the Rams have to reset it. The Bucks, 400 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 2: to their credit, recognized it. The Bucks, you know what 401 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 2: I mean, are taking their lumps on the dead this year. 402 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 2: They got a quarterback making no money and they're like, Okay, 403 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: we won our super Bowl. Now we're going to try 404 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 2: to reset it. And which is why you know they didn't. 405 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 2: I think it was smart that the Bucks didn't re 406 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 2: sign Mike Evans. What do you resigned Mike Evans for? 407 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 2: You just got to start over, you know. And so yeah, 408 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 2: I think the Rams, I think drafting Caleb would have 409 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 2: obviously been their best case scenario. I hope Caleb doesn't 410 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 2: go to Chicago. Chicago doesn't seem to know what they're doing. 411 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 1: No, I've said this before, It's not a coincidence that 412 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: Kansas City has had Dick for Meal and Hank Stram 413 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 1: and Marty Schottenheimer and Herm Edwards and Andy Reid. It's 414 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: also not a shock they've had Lynn Dawson and Trent 415 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: Green and Alex Smith and Joe Montana and Patrick Mahomes 416 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: certain places, it's not a surprise that the Packers have 417 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: had Matt Lafleur, McCarthy, Holmgren, offensive coaches, Art Star Farvan Rodgers. 418 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: Certain organizations make it easier for quarterbacks to succeed. Chicago's 419 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: a defensive culture, a windy, cold northern climate, where the 420 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: Packers usually have a Hall of Fame quarterback. They in 421 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: an era when the entire league's pivoted to offense. They 422 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: went and got an unproven This is what Kansas City 423 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: doesn't do. Kansas City gets for Meal, Schottenheimer, herm Andy, 424 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: they go get Matt Eberfluse like time out that like it. 425 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: It's not a coincidence that Kansas City's almost never terrible 426 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: and almost always has a better than average coach and 427 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: a competent quarterback. They didn't lock into that. The Hunt 428 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: family knows what they're doing. You have an old school 429 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: ownership in Chicago, a rigid, defensive culture that's outdated. They 430 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: had to hire Bill Pollion to really run their quarterback 431 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: or their head coach search. So I don't think Justin 432 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:49,719 Speaker 1: Fields is good, but much harder to succeed there than 433 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: Kansas City or Green Bay. 434 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: No, yeah, listen, I think it's Justin Fields has been 435 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 2: set up to fail. Yes, I also think he has failed. Yeah, 436 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 2: And it was, it was. It was bizarre the offseason 437 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 2: commentary surrounding him and the Bears. The Bears, the Bears 438 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 2: preseason Vegas win total was seven and a half, and 439 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 2: I just remember thinking about it. I was like, if 440 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: the Bears go seven and ten, their fans are gonna 441 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 2: be thrilled. It's gonna have been a great season. So 442 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 2: anytime you can bet the under and still have what 443 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 2: would be a win, an under bet could win and 444 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 2: the fans could be like this was a great season. 445 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 2: I'm like, well then it's probably an under team like 446 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 2: where And there was a lot of I just thought 447 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: wish casting. And I'm not trying to act like I'm 448 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 2: somebody that studies the All twenty two and I can 449 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 2: tell you, you know, the guy's a dots and stuff. 450 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 2: But I watch every football game there is. I watch 451 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 2: as much as as humanly possible. I watched justin Fields 452 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 2: all last year, and at no point was I like, Oh, 453 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 2: that guy is a star. Now. Multiple times I was 454 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 2: like he might be the best running quarterback, the best 455 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 2: runner at the position I've ever seen, including Vic and Lamar. 456 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 2: I did say that, but there was not a single 457 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 2: moment where I was like, that guy throws the ball well. 458 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 2: And this offseason some of the quarterbacks on television were like, 459 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 2: I think he can win league MVP. League MVP is crazy. 460 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 2: First of all, your team's gonna win thirteen games. Second 461 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 2: of all, you've got to be awesome. What evidence do 462 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 2: we have of either of those things? 463 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's interesting that. I'm not a huge believer in 464 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: analytics for football. I think it works for baseball, though 465 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: I think it's hurt the sport, and I do believe 466 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: in basketball situational mid range jump shots are very important 467 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. I think the long game analytics works 468 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: in baseball and basketball get into the playoffs. I need 469 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: stops in baskets, need hoops. I don't need threes. I 470 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: need hoops in football. I'm begrudgingly accept some analytics. But 471 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: the number, the data that really sticks out with justin 472 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: fields is that he has more interceptions on four plus 473 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: seconds to throw like he has plenty of time, Like 474 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: there's a there's a data point out there where he 475 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: takes more sacks after four seconds, throws more interceptions and 476 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: in completions after four seconds. Mooney and DJ Moore are 477 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: a and Cole Comet and the other tight end from 478 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: Green Bay. They are fine skill players like. His problem 479 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: is he doesn't see the field particularly well to Zach 480 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: Wilson issue. They both run, have arms, they don't see 481 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: the field, and he's very reluctant to just let it go. 482 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 2: Well, that's I can't add anything more to it. And 483 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 2: one hundred cent agree. And I think he as where 484 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: I do think the team did him a disservices. I 485 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 2: think if he had more stability and more talent around 486 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 2: him early, he wouldn't be as he seems to be 487 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 2: nervous when he's playing and he's you know what I mean. 488 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 2: So that's why to me, what we're seeing right now 489 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 2: is the worst case scenario. I guess what I'm saying 490 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: is with him, even the best case scenario. I don't 491 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 2: think was ever going to be awesome, but it didn't 492 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 2: have to be this. 493 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: And how about this too. I remember when I hired you. 494 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: The I hired you, I was asked about you, and 495 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,959 Speaker 1: so I listened to about three minutes of tape and 496 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: I said instantly, yep, I get that guy. He's good. 497 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: And I used to watch American Idol twelve seconds in 498 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: You're like hack lounge singer star. It's not hard. There 499 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: isn't it quality. I've watched c J. Stroud play six quarters. 500 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: He's good, professional, stands in the pocket, accurate thrower. Some 501 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: of this he has a defensive coach. He has a 502 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: rookie play caller. 503 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 2: And by the way he's down that it's not like 504 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 2: Texas have some great offensive line and they're down fort. 505 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: Starters and we're starting and I watch him nick he 506 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 1: just makes better decisions. So well, that's he makes better 507 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: decisions than Zach Baker justin some of this is the 508 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: it CJ. Strout When I watch him, he just throws 509 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: it to the right guy all the time. 510 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that c J. Stroud through three games 511 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 2: has been a revelation because I thought I thought, okay, 512 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 2: very low ceiling, very high floor was what I thought 513 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 2: you were getting to c J. Strou Jared Goff, Yeah, sure, 514 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: absolutely like very low ceiling, very high floor, just stability. 515 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 2: But the through I mean, again, I don't want to overreact, 516 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 2: but now I think the ceiling is much higher than 517 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 2: I thought. You've said, Zach Wilson a couple of times. 518 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:50,959 Speaker 2: I know the Jets are over discussed. Can we talk 519 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 2: about the Jets from sure? Yeah, okay, I am. I 520 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 2: think the Jets are going to kind of be let 521 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 2: off the hook for how disastrous this was always going 522 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: to be because Aaron got hurt. Because okay, so a 523 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 2: number of things here that just make no sense, and 524 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: they're being laid to bear with Aaron being hurt. Their 525 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: entire offseason when you look at it was about hiring 526 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: friends of Aaron Rodgers. Probably not a good way to 527 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 2: start that. Who's the guy who almost caught the ricocheted 528 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 2: hail Mary Cob, He answers, Randall Cobb. Why is Randall 529 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 2: Cobb that you signed McCole Hardman away from the Chiefs. 530 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: He has one catch for six yards because Cobb and 531 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 2: Lazard are the ones getting on the field, Well, who's 532 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: making that decision. Oh yeah, Nat Hackett. What's his great qualification? 533 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's Rogers buddy. There was a very interesting 534 00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 2: moment when Salah this weekend I'm sure you saw it 535 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: was asked about you know, why is Zack still the starter? 536 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 2: And he was about to say he's the best quarterback 537 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 2: we have, and then he stopped. He was like, he 538 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 2: gives his best chance to win. But the answer is 539 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 2: it's because Tim Boyle is the backup. So Tim Boyle, 540 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 2: this is I said this on TV. Both of my 541 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 2: co hos today said that can't be right, and I said, 542 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 2: just go google it. Tim Boyle played three years at 543 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 2: Yukon and then played one year one of the directional Kentucky. 544 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 2: Those three years at Yukon Colin I swear to God 545 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 2: this is accurate. He had one touchdown pass and thirteen interceptions. 546 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 2: So it's not like, oh, he never got to play. 547 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 2: He played three years of D one college football, had 548 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 2: one touchdown pass and thirteen interceptions. In the NFL, he 549 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: has thrown one hundred and eight total passes in a 550 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 2: six year career. That I don't know how he's had 551 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 2: a six year career. In those hundred and eight passes, 552 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 2: he's been picked off another eight times, so why is 553 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 2: he there? Oh yeah, because he was on rogers ayahuasca 554 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 2: trip with him. He's his buddy and that's his guy. 555 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 2: So Rogers goes down. And by the way, Dwayne Brown 556 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 2: this week is on the IR. That was gonna happen 557 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 2: whether or not Rogers went down. Dwayne Brown was going 558 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 2: to the IR and roberts Hell is still going to 559 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 2: be your coach. But there was like, and I'm sorry 560 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: that I'm this is kind of, you know, a long story, 561 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 2: but it'll it'll, it'll make sense. I'm gonna go to 562 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 2: the Chiefs for a moment. The Chiefs number six wide 563 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: receiver who's also their pump returner, got hurt in week two, 564 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 2: Richie James, you know what they did between week two 565 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 2: and week three elevated a new pump returner off the 566 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 2: practice squad, was on the active roster yesterday, the like 567 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: fifty first most important guy on the team got hurt. 568 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 2: They're like, okay, he's on IR. We need to elevate 569 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 2: someone to take that spot. The fucking Jets starting quarterback 570 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 2: went down, I know other quarterbacks. 571 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 4: They were like, we're gonna stick with Zach Wilson, who 572 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 4: we our team openly revolted against last year, was wearing 573 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 4: T shirts of his backup and we're shot. 574 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 2: This thing's going sideways, Like I don't think I know, 575 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 2: I know J Mack on your show is big on 576 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 2: like they can save the season with cousins, whatever it is. 577 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 2: I don't know about say anything. What I know is 578 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson's the worst quarterback I've seen in my life. 579 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 2: He's the worst that's gotten a lot of chances. The 580 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: team knows it, and they refuse to bring someone else 581 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 2: in a way that is it could be mystifying team. 582 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: They could threaten Aaron Rodgers. See I felt this with 583 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: Green Bay at the end they were walking on eggshells. 584 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: I think the Jets are walking on eggshells. They don't 585 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: want to offend Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb, Alan Lazard, Billy Hunter, 586 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: this backup quarterback. I mean, I think a lot with 587 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: Aaron is I think people are a little intimidated. Aaron 588 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: comes off. I think he's smart. I don't think he's 589 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: quite as like Peyton Manning smart. I think I don't 590 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: think he's as smart as he thinks he is. But 591 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: that's an epidemic in the world. I think with Aaron 592 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: Old single rich Ring, he really has everybody. He has 593 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: the leverage. I mean even now the injury gives it 594 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: more leverage. Now they're really trapped. 595 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 2: And by the way, if this thing really goes terribly so, 596 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 2: Sala's record is abysmal, like he now no. I said 597 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 2: this on your show, and people thought I was trolling 598 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 2: because this was before Rogers got hurt. When I was saying, 599 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 2: I thought the Jets, because of their offensive line, we're 600 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 2: going to have a terrible like, have a disappointing ear. 601 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 2: I said that I thought Salah was going to be 602 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 2: the fall guy, and then Rogers was going to use 603 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 2: the leverage of do I come back or don't I 604 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 2: come back to tell to make them make Nad Hackett 605 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: the head coach. I now truly believe that's what's gonna happen. 606 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 2: This Jets seems gonna win four games. Sala's overall record 607 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 2: at that point is going to be like a career 608 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 2: twenty five winning percentage. He has two division wins, ever, 609 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: and that's not gonna get much better. This year. He 610 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 2: got two, you got one, Morgan's Buffalo, I'm sorry. Three 611 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 2: division wins. Ever, now because the one against Buffalo, you 612 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 2: have two against Miami. The Jets couldn't score seventy points 613 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: in a six hour game, and Nat Hackett absolutely could 614 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 2: be the coach. Also, the offensive line thing, I can't 615 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 2: get over it. It's like it's like the Jets. I'm 616 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: gonna use a Colin Cowherd analogy. I'm not as good 617 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 2: as you, but I think it'll work. Aaron Rodgers is 618 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: like a private airplane that was on discount because the owners, 619 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 2: the people who owned it were like, ah, I think 620 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: it's it's a little old, little unreliable, kind of a 621 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 2: pain in the ass. So you were able to buy 622 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 2: it at a huge discount and then with your last 623 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,239 Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars of like renovating it making it as 624 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 2: nice as possible. It's like, all right, you got ten 625 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 2: grand left, should we buy some parachutes in case? Ever 626 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 2: they were right about it, They're like, eh, if we 627 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 2: need the parachutes, were fucked anyway, you spend it on champagne. 628 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: That's what they did. They could have they could have 629 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 2: used they could have re signed Mike White, they could 630 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 2: have had a real backup quarterback and said they're like 631 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 2: a spinning on Dalvin Cook spending on Rogers' buddies. If 632 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 2: he goes down, we're ruined anyway. And with an achilles injury, 633 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 2: yes you are screwed anyway. But if Rogers, let's just 634 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 2: what would have been really mortifying for the Jets is 635 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 2: if Rogers hadn't torn his achilles, he had just suffered 636 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow's calf strain. And it's like, all right, guys, 637 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 2: just hold it together for five weeks for me. And 638 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,760 Speaker 2: they're out here looking like they do because they didn't. 639 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: Andy Dalton looked competent this week. Jameis Winston came in 640 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 2: and drove them into field goal rings. They missed it. 641 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 2: They look competent. Cardner Minshew won a game against the 642 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 2: Ravens like the backupquarters are available, and they rolled with 643 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 2: Zach for reasons I don't understand. And now they're just 644 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,280 Speaker 2: a dumpster fire, just a disaster. 645 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: We're back with another week of football and Draft Kings 646 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 1: Sports Book is keeping us in on all the NFL 647 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: action great offers.

With the code Colin, The crown 658 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: is yours, listen. I think that there's not a lot 659 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: of coincidences in sports. I mean, I think the Bears 660 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: and the Jets are poorly owned and mostly poorly run. 661 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: And I think there's a reason Kansas City is almost 662 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: always competent and good, infrequently great. But now they're on 663 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: a great run. Green Bays a was competent. I mean 664 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: even New England. Now it's a pop gun offense, but 665 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: they're competent. I mean, they beat the teams they should beat. 666 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: They're not gonna beat Philadelphia, They're not going to beat 667 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,879 Speaker 1: Kansas City or Buffalo, but they're gonna Miami. They'll beat 668 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: the teams they should beat, they'll they'll knock off one 669 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: or two. I don't think there's a coincidence. I mean 670 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: I say this all the time. I've been in this 671 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: business thirty years. It's the people who have a big 672 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: audience radio, TV, print, digital. It's not a coincidence. They 673 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 1: either work harder, they're more talented, they're smarter, they're more captivating. 674 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: I think it's the same thing in the NFL. The 675 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: Jets are exactly Listen, think about it. They pursued Rogers 676 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: because they whiffed with a number two pick, right, so. 677 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 2: The numbers two picked if they had to pick, because 678 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: they whiffed on the number three pick for three years prior. 679 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 2: They were four years prior in Darnold, like, they've had 680 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 2: so many bites at this. 681 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,839 Speaker 1: Anc, constantly spending bad money to fix it. So they 682 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: whiffed it with in a left tackle, they whiffed in 683 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: a quarterback. So now they go get Dwayne Brown, and 684 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: now they overspend for Aaron Rodgers, and now they want 685 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: to bring in maybe Carson Wentz or Kirk Cousins. The 686 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: Packers are a well run business. The Bears are a 687 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 1: poorly run business. The chiefs are a well run business. 688 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,359 Speaker 1: The Jets are a poorly run business. These are all. 689 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 2: Business and to bring the Bears, I mean again, sorry 690 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:35,240 Speaker 2: salt nowin for Bears fans. The Bears drafted justin Fields 691 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:40,919 Speaker 2: because Mitch Trubisky didn't work out. Who they drafted over 692 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes in that draft. That was the Bears were 693 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 2: drafting a quarterback in the Patrick Mahomes. 694 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 1: Drightaway, mel kiper no, no no. Greg Cosell said, Trubisky 695 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: is going to go in the first round. Watch him. 696 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: I was with my family in Hawaii. I went inside 697 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: off the beach to watch his Carolina team play, I 698 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: think Florida State. So I watched a half and I 699 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: text Greg Cosell. I said, I don't get it. His 700 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: ball die is twenty yards in. I don't get it. 701 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: And he said he's a front leg thrower and I 702 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: don't like him. And I said, Greg, I'm just a 703 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 1: I'm a radio TV guy. But his ball dies, his 704 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: ball doesn't carry. He made a sideline throw and I 705 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: don't know if it was intercepted, but you could just 706 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: see that his and that was his NFL thing. He 707 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: was more athletic than he was given credit for. But 708 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: a far worse thrower than he was given credit for, 709 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: and they drafted him. The Bears drafted a receiver named 710 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: VELAs Jones in the third round two years ago. He 711 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 1: was at USC transfer to Tennessee. When he was at USC, 712 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: they could have made a phone call. He couldn't track 713 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: the ball. He couldn't the ball was He's like a 714 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: center fielder who couldn't track the ball. He's been a 715 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: complete bust. Like it's like they don't their phones don't work, 716 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: they don't make calls, they don't have It's like these 717 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: are Trubisky was a was not a first round quarterback. 718 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,400 Speaker 1: Beilis Jones was not an NFL third round pick. Like 719 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: sometimes I just again, it's not a coincidence. They don't 720 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: know offense. 721 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 2: I know it's getting late, but you mentioned USC, which 722 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 2: reminded me I wanted to Can I ask you a 723 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: college football question? This is kind of a media question 724 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,279 Speaker 2: as long as well as college football. Oh, by the way, 725 00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 2: I think there's nothing And I like Dan Lanning. I 726 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 2: like him a lot. Dan Lanning is a Kansas City guy. 727 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 2: Used to listen to my radio show called Into My 728 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 2: Buddies radio show in Kansas City. The Church of Laslo. 729 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 2: I like Dan, but I got a little bit of 730 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 2: a chuckle. The coach of the Oregon Ducks also known 731 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 2: as the Nike Marketing University of Football, being like, they're 732 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 2: in it for the clicks. We're hard, No, we play 733 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 2: these games with the lights off, Like, huh, don't you 734 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 2: guys have neon yellow jersey, a. 735 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 1: Hundred uniforms or good? 736 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 2: Like a break coldal speech was for his players to 737 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 2: get them fired up, and I saw that. I'm like, 738 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 2: this isn't exactly Texas A and m out here being like, 739 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 2: give me a break. All right. So here's my question. 740 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 2: I think USC is gonna score seventy points on Colorado. 741 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: I think it's end play. I mean, I think Oregon 742 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 2: has a better defense than USC. Yeah, USC is a 743 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 2: better offense. US is gonna score every time you catch 744 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 2: the ball. If Colorado gets annihilated again, does the country 745 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 2: stop caring about them before this year? 746 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: I think yeah, I think it. I think it. I 747 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:40,879 Speaker 1: think Colorado, because they're humiliated, is probably more competitive at home, 748 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 1: and USC's defense is better than last year, but not great, 749 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 1: So I think it's more of a forty five to 750 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: twenty one game. I think it's I don't think it's 751 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: that close us. He is clearly better. They may score 752 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 1: in the fifties. I think. I think what Dion has 753 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: done he has not moved college football fans to his channel. 754 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 1: He's brought in people that didn't like college football, pro fans, 755 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: Dion fans, Cowboy fans. If you look at the numbers, 756 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: he's not moving people from Georgia to Colorado. He found 757 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:15,240 Speaker 1: like three people. 758 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 2: He's got it. Yeah, and it's and listen, it's not 759 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,760 Speaker 2: it's not poor form to say it, because it's facts. 760 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 2: He is. There are massive amounts of black people that 761 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 2: were not watching college football that are now. Not that 762 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 2: black people don't watch college football, but when you look 763 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 2: at the act, our guy michaelmulbihill at Fox has all 764 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 2: the data and tweets it out Dion. What Dion has 765 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 2: done for the for the black audience of college football, 766 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,919 Speaker 2: and that's I mean, it's it's it's historic, it's un 767 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 2: it's it's unprecedented. 768 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 1: Like the thirty five to forty percent viewers that don't 769 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 1: watch the sport. 770 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 2: Correct, and that's that's not obviously all black people, but 771 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 2: that is disproportionately a black audience and so I I 772 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 2: just wonder I think this there was the other like 773 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 2: the idea, there were some After Colorado got their teeth 774 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 2: kicked in, there was some pushback. They were like, oh, 775 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,800 Speaker 2: maybe now the media stopped pushing this down our throats. Guys, 776 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 2: there were ten million people watching Colorado Colorado State game 777 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 2: at two in the morning Eastern. 778 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 779 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 2: If you go to DraftKings, were volume war with DraftKings, right, DraftKings. 780 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 2: If you go to DraftKings, they have a tab. It's 781 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,720 Speaker 2: like the end. You want to bet the NBA, the NFL, 782 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:33,720 Speaker 2: college football, Colorado, and the tennis. Like, I mean that's true. 783 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 2: Good look at it. It's I mean it is. This 784 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 2: was not. Certain things are media creations. The interest in 785 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 2: Colorado was not. People were into it. Yeah, and I 786 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,959 Speaker 2: think they still are if they lose by forty next week. 787 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 2: I think it Discip. 788 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, Travis Kelcey is very much media generated. It's fun. 789 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: It was a blowout, the game was over. Let's put 790 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 1: it up. I'm fascinated in Deon Sanders. I don't think 791 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: it will be as uh, you know, Intergalact ratings, Bonanza 792 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: comets through the sky, but I'll still watch. I mean 793 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 1: I said before, I'm not rooting former against him. I 794 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: root for interesting. Dion's interesting, the cowboy hat, the shades, 795 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: the attitude Colorado has been a I mean, you don't 796 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,800 Speaker 1: even remember this. I knew Colorado sports because of Robbie 797 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: Benson a movie in the seventies called One on One. 798 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: You could google. No it was I don't remember, like 799 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,280 Speaker 1: nobody cared about Colorado sports. 800 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 2: The you know, the first memory I have a Colorado sports. 801 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 2: I was never a Missouri football fan, but I'm from Kansay. 802 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 2: Missouri is the fifth down play. I don't know if 803 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 2: you met, Missouri was playing Colorado at the end of 804 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: a Big eight season one year and the down guys 805 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 2: screwed up and Colorado got a fifth down. But so, 806 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 2: all right, here's my last Colorado thing. This is their 807 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 2: schedule the rest of the way. Home for USC loss, 808 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 2: they're gonna get. Yeah, at Arizona State when they can 809 00:43:55,880 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 2: win that, okay, Home for Stanford win, at u c 810 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 2: l A win, Okay, well then they're fine. Home for 811 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 2: Oregon State is probably a loss, go either way. Game 812 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:16,399 Speaker 2: home for Arizona win, and then at Wazoo and at 813 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 2: Utah lost loss. 814 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,240 Speaker 1: They'll definitely lose at Utah. 815 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 2: That will lose Utah. Utah. Utah is just big. If 816 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 2: you put took Shador and Colorado's best skill guy and 817 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 2: and gave to Utah, you have the best team in 818 00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 2: the country. I mean, because Utah has all that. When 819 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,320 Speaker 2: Dion's talking, I need seven or eight people he means 820 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 2: offensive and defensive line. Yeah, he needs big people. But 821 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 2: so you think they can go seven and five eight? Absolutely, 822 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 2: that would be an amazing Since that would be an 823 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 2: amazing I. 824 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 1: Think it's wonderful he has brought and I when I 825 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 1: say he's brought people in that didn't watch the sport. 826 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 1: He's brought NFL fans in, Niner fans, Cowboy fans, He's 827 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 1: brought people that didn't really like they're Dion fans. And 828 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 1: by the way, if Dion walked through a mall, it's 829 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: not just it's it's he's Deon Sanders. He's had forever. 830 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,320 Speaker 2: Wilds asked this and it was a very interesting question. 831 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 2: It wasn't even on TV. He's asked me. He said, 832 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 2: is Dion the most famous person to ever coach college foot? 833 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 2: And it's like, I, I. 834 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 1: Mean, I don't well, bear think he is famous because 835 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: he coached college football. Yes, I think he's the most 836 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: famous person that has coached college football. 837 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 2: And like, right now, if Nick Saban and Dion Sanders 838 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 2: are walking on separate sides of the mall it First 839 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 2: of all, there are parts of the country where Nick 840 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 2: Saban would not be bothered, right and even in Alabama, 841 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 2: everyone knows Dion. They might be more excited about Nick, 842 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 2: but everyone nobody doesn't know him, and so like there 843 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 2: that is a real power. It is a level of 844 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,600 Speaker 2: like fame and celebrity we've never had in college. 845 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 1: When you when you have a nickname and people in 846 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 1: your nickname doesn't have anything to do with your name, 847 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 1: like Mamba Kobe, Yeah, that's famous Prime, Deon Sanders Prime, 848 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: Like usually you know it. It's connected to your name. 849 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 1: Very few people music or otherwise that have a nickname 850 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 1: where their name's not included in it. And universally everybody 851 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: knows what you're talking about. 852 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 2: And it's another word on its own, you know what. 853 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 2: It's not like like it was shack is, but it's 854 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,839 Speaker 2: another word on its own. Prime means its own thing. 855 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 2: But right now, if someone says prime, you think of 856 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 2: Colorado football, that's pretty goddamn powerful. 857 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I think it's great for this. I love 858 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 1: college football. I think he's love some NFL fans that 859 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: are Sunday viewers that don't watch Saturday football. They're certainly, 860 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 1: as you noted, an African American component. But I think 861 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,720 Speaker 1: a big chunk of it is he brought Sunday people 862 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: to Saturday TV and it's great. 863 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 2: Yeah.
