1 00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,628 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in 2 00:00:06,708 --> 00:00:26,548 Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio. Hey, welcome to Good Running Football. We're 3 00:00:26,588 --> 00:00:28,588 Speaker 1: here in New York City. It's a Wednesday at the 4 00:00:28,668 --> 00:00:31,708 Speaker 1: end of March time. Jamie Artle, Kyle Brandt, Jason mccordy, 5 00:00:32,028 --> 00:00:34,508 Speaker 1: and then, of course NFL defensive tackle Michael brockers with 6 00:00:34,628 --> 00:00:36,548 Speaker 1: us for the next couple of days. Brock, how was 7 00:00:36,588 --> 00:00:38,548 Speaker 1: your first hour of television? We always like to check 8 00:00:38,588 --> 00:00:41,588 Speaker 1: in just to make sure you are William good. I'm good. 9 00:00:41,628 --> 00:00:43,628 Speaker 1: I'm good. You guys are making me feel like family, 10 00:00:43,708 --> 00:00:46,188 Speaker 1: so I'm comfortable you are now all right. Brock Purty 11 00:00:46,228 --> 00:00:48,668 Speaker 1: became the unlikely hero in San Francisco last season by 12 00:00:48,668 --> 00:00:51,588 Speaker 1: taking the Niners to the doorstep of Super Bowl fifty seven, 13 00:00:51,748 --> 00:00:54,788 Speaker 1: pending injury that brutally knocked him out of the NFC 14 00:00:54,948 --> 00:00:58,468 Speaker 1: Championship game. Yesterday, forty nine Ers GM John Lynch called 15 00:00:58,508 --> 00:01:01,348 Speaker 1: pretty the quote leader in the clubhouse to be their 16 00:01:01,388 --> 00:01:04,828 Speaker 1: starter in twenty twenty three, interesting because once again Lance 17 00:01:04,908 --> 00:01:07,788 Speaker 1: loom to large. Here's head coach Kyle Shanahan on how 18 00:01:07,788 --> 00:01:13,268 Speaker 1: he's feeling about his three current quarterbacks. Brock played eight 19 00:01:13,308 --> 00:01:15,908 Speaker 1: games and won all of them. And played at extremely 20 00:01:15,948 --> 00:01:19,788 Speaker 1: high level, and we're very excited to have that level 21 00:01:19,828 --> 00:01:22,028 Speaker 1: of a player as our quarterback. Now. We believe Trey 22 00:01:22,068 --> 00:01:23,388 Speaker 1: can be that. I think he would have done it 23 00:01:23,468 --> 00:01:25,268 Speaker 1: last year if he stayed healthy. The good thing for 24 00:01:25,348 --> 00:01:26,828 Speaker 1: him is with brock By and Heard and stuff, he 25 00:01:26,828 --> 00:01:29,548 Speaker 1: has an opportunity to try to regain that in everything. 26 00:01:29,628 --> 00:01:31,828 Speaker 1: And that's also we brought in Sam because we can't 27 00:01:31,828 --> 00:01:33,948 Speaker 1: be set for sure on Brock because you never know 28 00:01:33,988 --> 00:01:35,628 Speaker 1: how the injury will go. We think it will go 29 00:01:35,668 --> 00:01:37,868 Speaker 1: well and we're optimistic about it, but right now that's 30 00:01:37,908 --> 00:01:40,548 Speaker 1: on hold, and so it op opens up an opportunity 31 00:01:40,548 --> 00:01:42,908 Speaker 1: for Trey and for Sam to come in and show 32 00:01:42,988 --> 00:01:46,708 Speaker 1: us what they have. Just a wild set of circumstances 33 00:01:46,708 --> 00:01:49,628 Speaker 1: for the quarterbacks in San Francisco once again, since there 34 00:01:49,668 --> 00:01:52,228 Speaker 1: is mild level of uncertainty when it comes to exactly 35 00:01:52,228 --> 00:01:55,228 Speaker 1: when Brock Purty will be available again after undergoing surgery 36 00:01:55,268 --> 00:01:57,468 Speaker 1: on that elbow injury that he sustained back in January. 37 00:01:57,548 --> 00:02:01,068 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan all in all, despite looking frustrated maybe with 38 00:02:01,148 --> 00:02:03,588 Speaker 1: injury history, he seems pretty happy with whom he has 39 00:02:03,668 --> 00:02:07,748 Speaker 1: in the quarterback room. So open quarterback competition on the 40 00:02:07,748 --> 00:02:11,028 Speaker 1: horizon for the forty nine ers. Perhaps Kyle, you get 41 00:02:11,068 --> 00:02:13,228 Speaker 1: to go first on this one. How does that make 42 00:02:13,268 --> 00:02:15,708 Speaker 1: you feel as you think about what brock Purty accomplished 43 00:02:15,748 --> 00:02:17,628 Speaker 1: last year, how does that make you feel? I feel 44 00:02:17,628 --> 00:02:19,668 Speaker 1: for Shanty man. I mean, he's been through hell and back. 45 00:02:19,668 --> 00:02:22,148 Speaker 1: He's got a crush test dummy as his quarterback. He's 46 00:02:22,148 --> 00:02:24,628 Speaker 1: got that thing going where like the president and age 47 00:02:24,668 --> 00:02:26,948 Speaker 1: is really fast, you know, like Obama was getting the grays, 48 00:02:28,108 --> 00:02:30,588 Speaker 1: like Shanty's going a lot of salt in that pepper. 49 00:02:30,748 --> 00:02:32,508 Speaker 1: And I don't think it's coaching. I don't think it's family. 50 00:02:32,548 --> 00:02:34,308 Speaker 1: I think it's I think I might have two Super 51 00:02:34,348 --> 00:02:36,428 Speaker 1: Bowl rings if I could keep a healthy quarterback out there. 52 00:02:36,468 --> 00:02:38,988 Speaker 1: Like my teams are great, and we played the strangest 53 00:02:39,028 --> 00:02:40,668 Speaker 1: playoff game of all time because this kid who won 54 00:02:40,748 --> 00:02:42,548 Speaker 1: eight out of eight games just got hurt. My answer 55 00:02:42,548 --> 00:02:44,708 Speaker 1: to the question is he and Lynch and all those 56 00:02:44,708 --> 00:02:46,868 Speaker 1: guys need to just pray for the healing and the 57 00:02:46,908 --> 00:02:49,308 Speaker 1: fast recovery of brock Purty and all the doctors taking 58 00:02:49,348 --> 00:02:50,908 Speaker 1: care of him, because if he comes up and he's 59 00:02:50,948 --> 00:02:55,068 Speaker 1: ready to throw, it's him. This whole Trey Lance thing 60 00:02:55,188 --> 00:02:57,388 Speaker 1: is this we feel bad for the kid, and we 61 00:02:57,428 --> 00:02:59,148 Speaker 1: hope for him, but like you've proven nothing, you have 62 00:02:59,188 --> 00:03:00,988 Speaker 1: no skins on the wall, and it's a terrible set 63 00:03:00,988 --> 00:03:03,748 Speaker 1: of circumstances. It's just part of the football. You get hurt. 64 00:03:04,548 --> 00:03:07,668 Speaker 1: Purty showed up and looked like a Disney movie right 65 00:03:07,668 --> 00:03:10,068 Speaker 1: in front of us and was so good and so natural, 66 00:03:10,268 --> 00:03:11,828 Speaker 1: and then came out in a playoff game. It was 67 00:03:11,868 --> 00:03:14,788 Speaker 1: throwing screen passes with an injured arm. So he showed 68 00:03:14,828 --> 00:03:17,148 Speaker 1: the heart, he showed it all. It's just this. I 69 00:03:17,188 --> 00:03:18,708 Speaker 1: don't If he shows up and he's got a clean 70 00:03:18,708 --> 00:03:21,428 Speaker 1: bell health, I think Lynch is right, that's the guy. 71 00:03:21,588 --> 00:03:24,028 Speaker 1: If he's If he's hurt, then it's wildly complicated and 72 00:03:24,068 --> 00:03:27,068 Speaker 1: we'll talk about it for all of August. Hope for prayer, rest. 73 00:03:27,108 --> 00:03:29,588 Speaker 1: What do we do, Rock, We elevate, we I drink 74 00:03:29,588 --> 00:03:31,668 Speaker 1: a lot of fluids, all that stuff. That's what you 75 00:03:31,748 --> 00:03:33,548 Speaker 1: hope for it for Brock Purty, because if he shows up, 76 00:03:33,548 --> 00:03:35,788 Speaker 1: he is the guy. He was awesome. Pick it right up? 77 00:03:35,868 --> 00:03:38,228 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? I don't know, man? You know I 78 00:03:38,868 --> 00:03:41,188 Speaker 1: love I love anybody named rock, So you know I'm rocking. 79 00:03:41,308 --> 00:03:44,748 Speaker 1: Let's go about that. But you know, for some reason 80 00:03:44,908 --> 00:03:46,948 Speaker 1: in my mind, I don't know. In that system and 81 00:03:47,108 --> 00:03:49,908 Speaker 1: just that that organization, I feel like it's trades job 82 00:03:49,948 --> 00:03:51,868 Speaker 1: to lose for some reason. I feel like, you know, 83 00:03:51,908 --> 00:03:54,588 Speaker 1: they liked that option of him being able to run 84 00:03:54,588 --> 00:03:57,028 Speaker 1: the ball and be able to throw and whenever he 85 00:03:57,108 --> 00:03:59,468 Speaker 1: wants to, and just you know, Shanahan's go ball up 86 00:03:59,468 --> 00:04:02,188 Speaker 1: a game plan for anybody. So it really doesn't matter. 87 00:04:02,268 --> 00:04:05,668 Speaker 1: I honestly feel who's at that quarterback position because Shanahan 88 00:04:05,788 --> 00:04:09,668 Speaker 1: does a great drab. Yeah, you're You're definitely right about that. 89 00:04:09,748 --> 00:04:12,668 Speaker 1: Kyle Shannon has been so impressive no matter who gets 90 00:04:12,708 --> 00:04:15,828 Speaker 1: hurt comes into play. As I look at this quarterback competition, 91 00:04:15,868 --> 00:04:18,348 Speaker 1: I agree with Kyle coming in Brock Purty, as long 92 00:04:18,348 --> 00:04:20,188 Speaker 1: as he's healthy, he's going to be the guy. He's 93 00:04:20,188 --> 00:04:23,788 Speaker 1: going to be the leader in the clubhouse. But Trey 94 00:04:23,868 --> 00:04:27,268 Speaker 1: Lance was drafted extremely high. First round picks were traded 95 00:04:27,308 --> 00:04:30,508 Speaker 1: to Bars, Trey Lance to Town. You know who cares 96 00:04:30,548 --> 00:04:33,668 Speaker 1: every organization who drafts a guy high and gives them 97 00:04:33,788 --> 00:04:37,668 Speaker 1: chance after chance after chance. Brock Purdy will start out 98 00:04:37,708 --> 00:04:40,508 Speaker 1: as a starting quarterback. My question will be how long 99 00:04:40,668 --> 00:04:44,108 Speaker 1: is his leash as the starting quarterback going into training camp? 100 00:04:44,188 --> 00:04:46,468 Speaker 1: Oh wow? We got Trey Lance icy on the sideline 101 00:04:46,548 --> 00:04:49,668 Speaker 1: right here. Going into training camp he throws in interception, 102 00:04:49,788 --> 00:04:52,188 Speaker 1: or going into the preseason game, brock Purty has a 103 00:04:52,308 --> 00:04:55,148 Speaker 1: rough outing. At what point do we start to put 104 00:04:55,668 --> 00:04:57,548 Speaker 1: put Trey Lance in there and say all right, now 105 00:04:57,868 --> 00:04:59,628 Speaker 1: he goes out there, he makes a player. This is 106 00:04:59,668 --> 00:05:01,388 Speaker 1: why we drafted him so high. This is why we 107 00:05:01,468 --> 00:05:03,508 Speaker 1: moved up into draft. I think when you go and 108 00:05:03,548 --> 00:05:06,508 Speaker 1: you get a guy that high, there's a ton of belief, 109 00:05:06,708 --> 00:05:08,788 Speaker 1: and there's a ton of belief in the potential and 110 00:05:08,908 --> 00:05:11,308 Speaker 1: which he can play that quarterback position at. So I 111 00:05:11,348 --> 00:05:13,308 Speaker 1: do think they love what they got in rock Party, 112 00:05:13,468 --> 00:05:16,028 Speaker 1: Like Kyle Shannan said, one eight out of eight games, 113 00:05:16,148 --> 00:05:17,588 Speaker 1: and he's going to go in as a leader in 114 00:05:17,628 --> 00:05:19,988 Speaker 1: the club house about to think. As soon something doesn't 115 00:05:20,028 --> 00:05:23,188 Speaker 1: go right, Trey Lance will be inserted into that spot 116 00:05:23,188 --> 00:05:25,108 Speaker 1: and if he runs with it, I think he will 117 00:05:25,108 --> 00:05:27,228 Speaker 1: be the guy to lead to San Francisco. For it's 118 00:05:27,268 --> 00:05:28,828 Speaker 1: so easy to tee up the guy that you know 119 00:05:28,948 --> 00:05:31,908 Speaker 1: nothing about, and he's an unproven commodity that you just 120 00:05:31,948 --> 00:05:33,988 Speaker 1: want to have blind faith in. Listen, I think there 121 00:05:34,068 --> 00:05:37,028 Speaker 1: is an offseason pity party happening with Jordan Love and 122 00:05:37,068 --> 00:05:39,428 Speaker 1: Trey Lance. I think they're hanging out in cabbo somewhere 123 00:05:39,428 --> 00:05:41,908 Speaker 1: and being like, how do we find ourselves in this 124 00:05:41,948 --> 00:05:44,388 Speaker 1: situation of this quarterback room that they are in in 125 00:05:44,428 --> 00:05:46,628 Speaker 1: Green Bay and San Francisco. I find the two of 126 00:05:46,668 --> 00:05:49,708 Speaker 1: them in one of the most precarious situations, despite where 127 00:05:49,708 --> 00:05:52,828 Speaker 1: they got drafted, despite their history of being first round picks, 128 00:05:52,828 --> 00:05:54,708 Speaker 1: And they're going to continue to get opportunities, and they're 129 00:05:54,708 --> 00:05:56,508 Speaker 1: going to continue to get paid and then they can 130 00:05:56,588 --> 00:06:01,548 Speaker 1: accessorize accordingly. But this Trey lancing again becomes a conversation 131 00:06:01,588 --> 00:06:05,108 Speaker 1: of how many opportunities do you give him because he 132 00:06:05,148 --> 00:06:08,388 Speaker 1: hasn't really truly gotten one yet. But if brock Purty 133 00:06:08,388 --> 00:06:11,028 Speaker 1: continues to run away with this thing, he is left 134 00:06:11,108 --> 00:06:13,388 Speaker 1: with what am I doing here? What are the forty 135 00:06:13,468 --> 00:06:15,908 Speaker 1: nine ers doing with me? But with their bad luck 136 00:06:15,988 --> 00:06:17,708 Speaker 1: when it comes to the quarterbacks, why wouldn't you just 137 00:06:17,788 --> 00:06:20,588 Speaker 1: keep him within that room? I do want to sneak 138 00:06:20,628 --> 00:06:23,028 Speaker 1: in one of the experts though, on the San Francisco 139 00:06:23,068 --> 00:06:24,708 Speaker 1: forty nine ers, because you know, Will Selva was just 140 00:06:24,788 --> 00:06:27,028 Speaker 1: chomping at the bid to get in part of this commerce. Okay, 141 00:06:27,108 --> 00:06:28,668 Speaker 1: let's go, well, what do you make of this and 142 00:06:29,188 --> 00:06:32,788 Speaker 1: your team, your San Francisco forty nine ers having open 143 00:06:32,908 --> 00:06:35,628 Speaker 1: competition tied to them. I do think that it is 144 00:06:36,268 --> 00:06:40,028 Speaker 1: Purty's job to lose because he has shown it based 145 00:06:40,068 --> 00:06:45,068 Speaker 1: on what we've seen. Actually, coincidentally, remember when Jimmy Caroppolo 146 00:06:45,108 --> 00:06:48,708 Speaker 1: came over from the Patriots. Instantly the team played well, 147 00:06:49,068 --> 00:06:51,468 Speaker 1: they were in rhythm, and they had a real momentum. 148 00:06:51,508 --> 00:06:55,348 Speaker 1: And that's what they have with brock Purty. To everyone's point, 149 00:06:55,428 --> 00:06:58,468 Speaker 1: with Trey Lance, there's just not enough of a sample size. 150 00:06:58,468 --> 00:07:01,748 Speaker 1: He also has an injury history in a brief amount 151 00:07:01,748 --> 00:07:04,108 Speaker 1: of time. I think at this point in time, it's 152 00:07:04,388 --> 00:07:07,108 Speaker 1: I'm boggling to think that Sam Darnald right now, at 153 00:07:07,148 --> 00:07:11,588 Speaker 1: this moment is the number three quarterback there, not even 154 00:07:11,708 --> 00:07:15,548 Speaker 1: the backup, so he's actually number three. And now you've 155 00:07:15,548 --> 00:07:17,828 Speaker 1: got brock Purty, who, Yeah, he showed he had some 156 00:07:17,868 --> 00:07:22,108 Speaker 1: of those limitations that made him mister Irrelevant with his arm, etc. 157 00:07:22,708 --> 00:07:25,588 Speaker 1: But he just had that it factor where they were 158 00:07:25,628 --> 00:07:29,788 Speaker 1: winning games, they had confidence, everybody was eating I Debot 159 00:07:30,148 --> 00:07:33,308 Speaker 1: Kittle was once again rediscovered in the offense because he 160 00:07:33,428 --> 00:07:36,108 Speaker 1: was actually lost for a little while. So I think 161 00:07:36,348 --> 00:07:39,028 Speaker 1: brock Purty being the one to start. I think it 162 00:07:39,108 --> 00:07:41,788 Speaker 1: makes the most sense. We'll see what Trey Lance can 163 00:07:41,828 --> 00:07:44,148 Speaker 1: do because he is going to get a lot of 164 00:07:44,228 --> 00:07:47,948 Speaker 1: reps in OTAs and even in training camp. But this, 165 00:07:48,148 --> 00:07:51,108 Speaker 1: no question, is brock Purty's job to lose. And the 166 00:07:51,148 --> 00:07:53,948 Speaker 1: word play with brock Purty is really just allows so 167 00:07:54,028 --> 00:07:57,388 Speaker 1: much more creative freedom for all the television professionals. So 168 00:07:57,468 --> 00:07:59,508 Speaker 1: I think you're all over Jay the word. Speaking of wordplay, 169 00:07:59,628 --> 00:08:02,108 Speaker 1: I think it's the comparison to love Jordan. Love is 170 00:08:02,148 --> 00:08:04,268 Speaker 1: apt if you look it up. I just did, well, well, 171 00:08:04,428 --> 00:08:06,908 Speaker 1: what was going. It's Jordan's Love has thrown eighty three 172 00:08:06,988 --> 00:08:09,788 Speaker 1: passes in his career. Trey Lance has only thrown nineteen. 173 00:08:09,868 --> 00:08:14,428 Speaker 1: More like it's they They're both so interesting and so mysterious. 174 00:08:14,828 --> 00:08:16,668 Speaker 1: And Lance hasn't even been sitting behind anybody. He just 175 00:08:16,788 --> 00:08:19,108 Speaker 1: keeps getting hurt. But they've shown us so little. We 176 00:08:19,268 --> 00:08:21,588 Speaker 1: don't know if either guy is good. We don't. We 177 00:08:21,668 --> 00:08:23,788 Speaker 1: have no clue. Now their coaches might have a feeling, 178 00:08:24,108 --> 00:08:26,028 Speaker 1: but until you put them out there, it's they're so 179 00:08:26,308 --> 00:08:28,588 Speaker 1: raw and so unproven, both those guys. Yeah, And at 180 00:08:28,628 --> 00:08:30,548 Speaker 1: the same time, the Green Bay Packers were willing to 181 00:08:30,628 --> 00:08:33,028 Speaker 1: let Aaron Rodgers walk out the door to see what 182 00:08:33,268 --> 00:08:35,668 Speaker 1: Jordan Love has and I think something will just said, 183 00:08:35,668 --> 00:08:38,268 Speaker 1: he said, brock Purty played and did really well. He said, 184 00:08:38,308 --> 00:08:40,468 Speaker 1: although he shows some of his limitations. If you're the 185 00:08:40,548 --> 00:08:43,108 Speaker 1: forty nine ers, if some of those limitations you feel 186 00:08:43,148 --> 00:08:45,948 Speaker 1: like can be answered by Trey Lance, That's why I 187 00:08:46,028 --> 00:08:48,668 Speaker 1: feel like the door will remain open. Because guy was 188 00:08:48,748 --> 00:08:51,388 Speaker 1: a number three pick in the draft. And Jamie, what 189 00:08:51,468 --> 00:08:53,948 Speaker 1: did you just say? He hasn't really gotten the opportunity 190 00:08:54,188 --> 00:08:56,388 Speaker 1: because he was injured last year. Jason pretty has not 191 00:08:56,468 --> 00:08:59,468 Speaker 1: lost the game. He has not lost. He will start 192 00:08:59,548 --> 00:09:01,948 Speaker 1: out as the starter. He will lose a game. You 193 00:09:01,988 --> 00:09:04,668 Speaker 1: think he says, I'm healthy, He's definitely the starter. He will, 194 00:09:04,708 --> 00:09:06,588 Speaker 1: he will, he will start, he will start training if 195 00:09:06,588 --> 00:09:08,708 Speaker 1: he's healthy's training camp. He will be the starter. He 196 00:09:08,708 --> 00:09:11,468 Speaker 1: will go out there the first prison. But my guess 197 00:09:11,668 --> 00:09:14,668 Speaker 1: is at some point, from rookie year on, you first 198 00:09:14,708 --> 00:09:17,628 Speaker 1: go out there, nobody knows anything about you. So you 199 00:09:17,748 --> 00:09:20,668 Speaker 1: go out there and you ball, You give defenses, coaches 200 00:09:20,748 --> 00:09:23,788 Speaker 1: an entire offseason, they start to figure some things out. 201 00:09:23,988 --> 00:09:26,228 Speaker 1: So I think at some point brock Purty will not 202 00:09:26,348 --> 00:09:29,828 Speaker 1: just remain undefeated and look like Linsanity of the San 203 00:09:29,868 --> 00:09:32,468 Speaker 1: Francisco forty nine ers. And I think at that point, 204 00:09:32,748 --> 00:09:34,868 Speaker 1: as the door will open, a window will open be 205 00:09:34,988 --> 00:09:37,108 Speaker 1: cracked for Trey Lance to bust through, and it'll be 206 00:09:37,228 --> 00:09:39,548 Speaker 1: up to him what he does with it. Exactly. You agree, 207 00:09:39,588 --> 00:09:41,348 Speaker 1: Brock I agree, I agree. I like. I like that 208 00:09:41,508 --> 00:09:43,548 Speaker 1: that take he took on it because you know, when 209 00:09:43,588 --> 00:09:45,748 Speaker 1: you think about it as a as a player, um, 210 00:09:46,108 --> 00:09:48,988 Speaker 1: you know that competition is always a healthy competition. But 211 00:09:49,468 --> 00:09:51,468 Speaker 1: when you said, like, you know, you you never know 212 00:09:51,588 --> 00:09:53,788 Speaker 1: how you know short that leash is, you know, and 213 00:09:53,908 --> 00:09:57,028 Speaker 1: he will lose a game, first of all, to the NFL. 214 00:09:57,108 --> 00:09:59,748 Speaker 1: He will lose a game. And when he loses that game, 215 00:09:59,868 --> 00:10:02,308 Speaker 1: what happens? Does he throw four piss? Yeah, you know, 216 00:10:02,388 --> 00:10:04,668 Speaker 1: didn't get rattled. You know, we gotta we gotta take 217 00:10:04,668 --> 00:10:08,428 Speaker 1: that into account. So, um yeah, I'd like the healthy competition. 218 00:10:08,508 --> 00:10:10,588 Speaker 1: And when it comes to it, you know, trade mate, 219 00:10:10,708 --> 00:10:12,588 Speaker 1: you know, be able to do a little bit more 220 00:10:12,788 --> 00:10:15,428 Speaker 1: with his feet. You like brock Lessner, You like you 221 00:10:15,468 --> 00:10:19,148 Speaker 1: got brocks o broh Yeah, you like brock Landers right like.

Have 238 00:11:27,348 --> 00:11:30,308 Speaker 1: you because we get to throw every quarterback question at you, 239 00:11:30,468 --> 00:11:32,668 Speaker 1: and it is now draftime. We just talked about him, 240 00:11:32,788 --> 00:11:35,508 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardon. He's been the talk of the draft. How 241 00:11:35,628 --> 00:11:37,828 Speaker 1: high can he climb up the boards? Do you see 242 00:11:37,908 --> 00:11:39,748 Speaker 1: him as a Day one starter? And how high do 243 00:11:39,828 --> 00:11:41,348 Speaker 1: you think he can go in the draft. Well, no, 244 00:11:41,388 --> 00:11:42,948 Speaker 1: I don't see him as a day one starter. I 245 00:11:42,988 --> 00:11:45,468 Speaker 1: don't think anybody should. And I think last week when 246 00:11:45,508 --> 00:11:48,228 Speaker 1: we talked to when I talk to you guys about this, 247 00:11:48,628 --> 00:11:51,188 Speaker 1: and I said, you wouldn't be doing him any favors 248 00:11:51,228 --> 00:11:54,708 Speaker 1: by drafting him into the top ten, let's say, without 249 00:11:54,828 --> 00:11:56,828 Speaker 1: a plan in place. If you don't have a plan 250 00:11:56,908 --> 00:11:58,668 Speaker 1: in place, and he gets out, is put on the 251 00:11:58,748 --> 00:12:00,588 Speaker 1: field the expectations that come with me in a top 252 00:12:00,668 --> 00:12:03,148 Speaker 1: ten quarterback, you're not doing him any favors. Okay, So 253 00:12:03,668 --> 00:12:06,588 Speaker 1: there has to be that, and unfortunately there's not enough 254 00:12:06,628 --> 00:12:09,348 Speaker 1: personal accountability that goes with general managers. A lot of 255 00:12:09,388 --> 00:12:11,668 Speaker 1: time they may get fired down the road. No one's 256 00:12:11,868 --> 00:12:13,668 Speaker 1: pointing that out to Joe Douglas right now. They're pointing 257 00:12:13,708 --> 00:12:15,908 Speaker 1: out what he did with the two offensive and defensive 258 00:12:15,948 --> 00:12:17,548 Speaker 1: Rookie of the years last year. But he still drafted 259 00:12:17,628 --> 00:12:19,948 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson two years ago. All right. That's a big 260 00:12:19,988 --> 00:12:21,308 Speaker 1: reason why I think he's still in the roster and 261 00:12:21,348 --> 00:12:22,908 Speaker 1: why he keeps talking about him in a way because 262 00:12:22,908 --> 00:12:24,908 Speaker 1: he wants to prove himself right. There has to be 263 00:12:24,988 --> 00:12:26,868 Speaker 1: a personal accountability to it. So if you do this 264 00:12:26,948 --> 00:12:29,988 Speaker 1: with Anthony Richardson and to make it work and not 265 00:12:30,548 --> 00:12:32,628 Speaker 1: put him in a terrible position to not succeed. You 266 00:12:32,788 --> 00:12:34,948 Speaker 1: have to have a plan in place, and that simply 267 00:12:35,028 --> 00:12:38,348 Speaker 1: hasn't been what's been done in the NFL outside of 268 00:12:38,428 --> 00:12:42,468 Speaker 1: Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes which worked out wonderfully, Carson 269 00:12:42,748 --> 00:12:45,788 Speaker 1: Palmer and Cincinnati number one overall pick that got to sit. 270 00:12:45,908 --> 00:12:47,948 Speaker 1: So those types of situations for me, I have a 271 00:12:48,068 --> 00:12:50,748 Speaker 1: really hard time because I want him to be so successful. 272 00:12:50,908 --> 00:12:53,668 Speaker 1: I don't want anybody ever to not be successful as 273 00:12:53,668 --> 00:12:55,548 Speaker 1: the quarterback drafted high. And there just has to be 274 00:12:55,668 --> 00:12:57,348 Speaker 1: things that go into it. And I don't think that 275 00:12:57,468 --> 00:13:00,948 Speaker 1: the teams actually get enough onus of that and the 276 00:13:01,068 --> 00:13:04,028 Speaker 1: responsibility they have when because guess what, Anthony and Richardson 277 00:13:04,108 --> 00:13:07,508 Speaker 1: doesn't decide where he goes right, it's absolutely right. Either 278 00:13:07,588 --> 00:13:10,228 Speaker 1: is Will Levis. You love Will Levis, Kentucky quarterback. Is 279 00:13:10,228 --> 00:13:11,868 Speaker 1: one of these guys were talking about and you said, 280 00:13:11,988 --> 00:13:14,508 Speaker 1: he's a guy you're excited about. Bucky Brooks does this 281 00:13:14,588 --> 00:13:16,108 Speaker 1: all day long for us in the network, and he 282 00:13:16,268 --> 00:13:18,308 Speaker 1: projected that Will Levis will not be taken in the 283 00:13:18,348 --> 00:13:21,588 Speaker 1: first round. There are critiques of him and Bucky's not 284 00:13:21,668 --> 00:13:23,268 Speaker 1: the only one. Do you understand them and how do 285 00:13:23,308 --> 00:13:25,068 Speaker 1: you respond to him because this is a guy you like. Yeah, 286 00:13:25,108 --> 00:13:26,748 Speaker 1: I definitely understand him. I think he could be an 287 00:13:26,788 --> 00:13:30,228 Speaker 1: incredible quarterback. I think he is the Josh Allen coming 288 00:13:30,228 --> 00:13:33,108 Speaker 1: out of college in terms of the ceiling. But he 289 00:13:33,228 --> 00:13:34,908 Speaker 1: needs to go to the right place and he also 290 00:13:35,028 --> 00:13:37,148 Speaker 1: needs to develop. He's not a Day one starter in 291 00:13:37,188 --> 00:13:39,988 Speaker 1: the NFL, so if he could fall to the second round, 292 00:13:40,508 --> 00:13:43,508 Speaker 1: I would love it for him because those expectations won't 293 00:13:43,548 --> 00:13:46,428 Speaker 1: come with it. I have a really hard time depending 294 00:13:46,428 --> 00:13:49,068 Speaker 1: on what Indianapolis does at four. If they go and 295 00:13:50,068 --> 00:13:52,268 Speaker 1: both of these quarterbacks would be your reach, they just 296 00:13:52,388 --> 00:13:55,668 Speaker 1: would because I know they would trot Gardner Minshaw out 297 00:13:55,708 --> 00:13:57,548 Speaker 1: on the field. But I guarantee you a fan base 298 00:13:57,628 --> 00:14:02,588 Speaker 1: out there, and Jim Mersey's a bit of an impulsive man, understandingly. 299 00:14:02,708 --> 00:14:06,948 Speaker 1: So if they're one and four, one in five, Gardner's playing, okay, 300 00:14:07,108 --> 00:14:08,548 Speaker 1: you're telling me the fan base is gonna be like, 301 00:14:08,828 --> 00:14:10,868 Speaker 1: get the guy out there, and you're just setting them 302 00:14:10,988 --> 00:14:13,588 Speaker 1: up for failure. So I would love if Will spelled 303 00:14:13,628 --> 00:14:16,468 Speaker 1: in the second round and those expectations lowered. You are 304 00:14:16,548 --> 00:14:19,908 Speaker 1: not hearing people talk about Malik Willis this year. Let's 305 00:14:19,948 --> 00:14:21,948 Speaker 1: say if Anthony Richardson were to have the same type 306 00:14:21,948 --> 00:14:25,348 Speaker 1: of struggles in year one, it would be throttled. The 307 00:14:25,428 --> 00:14:27,988 Speaker 1: confidence level would be so we're not hearing about it. 308 00:14:28,028 --> 00:14:30,348 Speaker 1: And so that's that's what comes with being a top 309 00:14:30,388 --> 00:14:32,428 Speaker 1: ten pick. It just does, and you don't have a 310 00:14:32,468 --> 00:14:33,948 Speaker 1: lot of saying it other than the fact that you're 311 00:14:33,948 --> 00:14:36,428 Speaker 1: super competitive and you want that to be the case. 312 00:14:36,868 --> 00:14:38,588 Speaker 1: I went on and wanted it and I needed it. 313 00:14:38,668 --> 00:14:40,468 Speaker 1: And at the same time, would you rather go high 314 00:14:40,508 --> 00:14:42,628 Speaker 1: because you just said, no one's talking about Malik Willis, 315 00:14:42,748 --> 00:14:44,948 Speaker 1: but a lot of people are talking about the possibility 316 00:14:44,988 --> 00:14:48,428 Speaker 1: of Ryan Tannehill not being the guy Malik Willis drafted 317 00:14:48,628 --> 00:14:51,468 Speaker 1: later on? Would you rather get drafted high where everybody's 318 00:14:51,508 --> 00:14:53,868 Speaker 1: talking about you and that opportunity comes, or like a 319 00:14:53,988 --> 00:14:56,508 Speaker 1: Malik Willis where nobody's talking about me, but they also 320 00:14:56,548 --> 00:14:58,508 Speaker 1: don't see me as a replacement to be the guy 321 00:14:58,628 --> 00:15:01,148 Speaker 1: right now? You know, well, I think after for four 322 00:15:01,188 --> 00:15:03,148 Speaker 1: minutes last year, that that's where that crept in. But 323 00:15:03,228 --> 00:15:05,708 Speaker 1: I also don't think it's a referendum on him. I 324 00:15:05,748 --> 00:15:07,828 Speaker 1: don't believe that at all. I think Tennessee flat out 325 00:15:07,828 --> 00:15:09,948 Speaker 1: told everybody We did not want to play him. We 326 00:15:10,028 --> 00:15:12,188 Speaker 1: were forced to do it because of injuries. We wanted 327 00:15:12,188 --> 00:15:13,788 Speaker 1: to see him develop. We knew he was a couple 328 00:15:13,788 --> 00:15:15,468 Speaker 1: of years away. That's why we drafted him where we 329 00:15:15,548 --> 00:15:18,428 Speaker 1: drafted him, And so I was happy last year to 330 00:15:18,428 --> 00:15:20,068 Speaker 1: see a lot of the conversation and a lot of 331 00:15:20,068 --> 00:15:22,348 Speaker 1: the talk and the hype going into the draft didn't 332 00:15:22,428 --> 00:15:24,908 Speaker 1: perpetuate that when the draft happened, he actually fell and 333 00:15:25,068 --> 00:15:26,908 Speaker 1: was given the opportunity because I think he can develop 334 00:15:26,948 --> 00:15:29,028 Speaker 1: into one of the one of the better quarterbacks in 335 00:15:29,068 --> 00:15:30,708 Speaker 1: the NFL as a starter, and that's where they hope 336 00:15:30,708 --> 00:15:32,668 Speaker 1: they can move on to after Ryan Tannehill, and and 337 00:15:32,748 --> 00:15:35,468 Speaker 1: the expectations are certainly not there that if they were, 338 00:15:35,468 --> 00:15:38,148 Speaker 1: if he would in, Kenny pickettsput here's a would you 339 00:15:38,268 --> 00:15:40,108 Speaker 1: rather Ryan? You got to start one of these guys 340 00:15:40,188 --> 00:15:42,668 Speaker 1: week one of their rookie season, is that Anthony Richardson 341 00:15:42,748 --> 00:15:49,948 Speaker 1: or Will Levis. I have to huh, fans, I'll start 342 00:15:49,988 --> 00:15:53,268 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson simply because of his athletic ability, and you 343 00:15:53,708 --> 00:15:56,628 Speaker 1: turn him into you know, a machine out there and 344 00:15:56,748 --> 00:15:58,708 Speaker 1: doing what you need to offensively. If that's how you 345 00:15:58,828 --> 00:16:00,668 Speaker 1: got to generate wins and try to figure out a 346 00:16:00,708 --> 00:16:04,028 Speaker 1: way to chew up clock time difference than he would 347 00:16:04,028 --> 00:16:05,708 Speaker 1: be the guy from You're in anguish about it. You 348 00:16:05,708 --> 00:16:06,908 Speaker 1: don't want to do it for you, I don't want 349 00:16:06,908 --> 00:16:08,388 Speaker 1: I don't want to see either one of them play 350 00:16:08,428 --> 00:16:11,588 Speaker 1: this year. Yes, and simply because and I get into 351 00:16:11,628 --> 00:16:13,108 Speaker 1: this with a lot of guys former players all the 352 00:16:13,148 --> 00:16:16,348 Speaker 1: time around personal responsibility too. And knows he got knocked 353 00:16:16,348 --> 00:16:17,788 Speaker 1: out against Buffalo at the end of the game. He 354 00:16:17,868 --> 00:16:19,628 Speaker 1: knows he did, but he doesn't wan anybody to know that, 355 00:16:20,148 --> 00:16:23,468 Speaker 1: so he doesn't take that responsibility and no one else does. Instead, 356 00:16:23,508 --> 00:16:25,348 Speaker 1: he goes out and gets knocked out again in Cincinnati. 357 00:16:25,868 --> 00:16:28,028 Speaker 1: And I've had a lot of arguments with Kurt Warner 358 00:16:28,068 --> 00:16:30,988 Speaker 1: in particular, or a ton about how it's on us 359 00:16:31,228 --> 00:16:33,348 Speaker 1: to self report and if we don't do it, people 360 00:16:33,348 --> 00:16:36,548 Speaker 1: shouldn't be looking out for us. Well, I do think 361 00:16:36,588 --> 00:16:38,828 Speaker 1: that you have to have these players' best interest at 362 00:16:38,868 --> 00:16:41,148 Speaker 1: heart when you're drafting them that high, when you're investing 363 00:16:41,188 --> 00:16:43,748 Speaker 1: in them that much. I understand the money is unbelievable 364 00:16:43,788 --> 00:16:46,148 Speaker 1: and that's a huge trade off, but you also have 365 00:16:46,348 --> 00:16:48,708 Speaker 1: to have that relationship because that's what it is. You 366 00:16:48,828 --> 00:16:51,828 Speaker 1: have to have the personal responsibility of taking care of somebody, 367 00:16:51,908 --> 00:16:53,868 Speaker 1: and if you know that this is a project and 368 00:16:53,948 --> 00:16:56,788 Speaker 1: we need to develop, then do the right thing. And 369 00:16:56,868 --> 00:16:58,668 Speaker 1: it just doesn't happen a lot of times because this 370 00:16:58,828 --> 00:17:01,508 Speaker 1: is about fear of missing out, about the money, and 371 00:17:01,548 --> 00:17:03,868 Speaker 1: about winning a championship. And I understand all of that. 372 00:17:03,988 --> 00:17:06,348 Speaker 1: I do. It's just from somebody who's gone through it 373 00:17:06,428 --> 00:17:08,148 Speaker 1: from a different perspective, and it's the only way I 374 00:17:08,268 --> 00:17:10,588 Speaker 1: kind of look at things when, especially around the draft, 375 00:17:10,748 --> 00:17:13,628 Speaker 1: I have a lot of empathy for these guys if 376 00:17:13,668 --> 00:17:16,508 Speaker 1: they don't have their back down the stretch. Right, let's 377 00:17:16,548 --> 00:17:19,108 Speaker 1: go with that. Let's go money, fear of missing out 378 00:17:19,148 --> 00:17:21,388 Speaker 1: and winning a championship, and let's talk about it. As 379 00:17:21,428 --> 00:17:23,868 Speaker 1: that pertains to Lamar Jackson in the situation that he 380 00:17:23,948 --> 00:17:26,548 Speaker 1: finds himself and he's been tweeting a lot. He says 381 00:17:26,628 --> 00:17:28,908 Speaker 1: he told the Ravens he wanted to be traded days 382 00:17:28,988 --> 00:17:31,508 Speaker 1: before they put the non exclusive franchise tag on him. 383 00:17:31,548 --> 00:17:33,268 Speaker 1: What do you make of this? I mean, it's it's 384 00:17:33,348 --> 00:17:38,308 Speaker 1: utter chaos both cumulatively. Look it looks embarrassing. It just does. 385 00:17:38,588 --> 00:17:39,988 Speaker 1: I put a lot more of the onus on the 386 00:17:40,428 --> 00:17:43,028 Speaker 1: Ravens simply because you could have sewn this up two 387 00:17:43,108 --> 00:17:46,148 Speaker 1: years ago, given him a very similar contract to Josh Allen, 388 00:17:46,188 --> 00:17:48,428 Speaker 1: and you wouldn't be in any conversation right now. But 389 00:17:48,588 --> 00:17:50,788 Speaker 1: you didn't. And maybe Lamar wanted more money at the 390 00:17:50,828 --> 00:17:53,428 Speaker 1: time too, and they've knocked heads. I will say this, 391 00:17:53,668 --> 00:17:56,508 Speaker 1: the energy that we're feeling around the league from other 392 00:17:56,588 --> 00:18:01,188 Speaker 1: platforms and people talking about him not representing himself now 393 00:18:01,228 --> 00:18:04,588 Speaker 1: once talking about Rakuan Smith on that Laramy tounsel who 394 00:18:04,628 --> 00:18:07,068 Speaker 1: went out tod their own DeAndre Hopkins. To me, this 395 00:18:07,148 --> 00:18:09,348 Speaker 1: thing's very similar to what it was like when he 396 00:18:09,428 --> 00:18:11,508 Speaker 1: came out of college, when they were pretty much saying 397 00:18:11,508 --> 00:18:14,508 Speaker 1: you're not a quarterback, you're a wide receiver, which is 398 00:18:14,548 --> 00:18:17,548 Speaker 1: saying we don't think you're smart enough. We don't think 399 00:18:17,588 --> 00:18:20,068 Speaker 1: you're smart enough to negotiate your own contract. Well, guess 400 00:18:20,148 --> 00:18:21,948 Speaker 1: what he is. He's one of the best in the 401 00:18:22,028 --> 00:18:24,348 Speaker 1: league and every team out there. You hear Author Blank 402 00:18:24,468 --> 00:18:26,548 Speaker 1: yesterday talk about trying to make the comparison between him 403 00:18:26,548 --> 00:18:30,028 Speaker 1: and Deshaun Watson. It was utter nonsense, absolute nonsense, and 404 00:18:30,068 --> 00:18:32,228 Speaker 1: I don't get it. I just hope he ends up 405 00:18:32,268 --> 00:18:34,948 Speaker 1: in a place that wants him and pays them money. 406 00:18:34,948 --> 00:18:36,428 Speaker 1: I'm always going to be an advocate for the player 407 00:18:36,468 --> 00:18:38,628 Speaker 1: no matter, no matter what, I'm gonna say, Hey, when 408 00:18:38,628 --> 00:18:40,228 Speaker 1: you want me to put the GM hat on, I'll 409 00:18:40,228 --> 00:18:42,148 Speaker 1: wear it and tell you why, No, you shouldn't do this. 410 00:18:42,588 --> 00:18:44,988 Speaker 1: But from a players standpoint, this is where we're going. 411 00:18:45,108 --> 00:18:47,508 Speaker 1: This is where we're going. And Joe Burrow and Justin 412 00:18:47,588 --> 00:18:50,508 Speaker 1: hermerg are lining up and Jalen Hurts, and they don't 413 00:18:50,548 --> 00:18:52,628 Speaker 1: want Lamar Jackson to be the next domino that falls 414 00:18:52,708 --> 00:18:55,348 Speaker 1: because they know there will be no problem signing after 415 00:18:55,428 --> 00:18:58,548 Speaker 1: that and ownership does not want to pay guaranteed contracts. 416 00:18:58,828 --> 00:19:01,108 Speaker 1: The only one who said that full out was honest, 417 00:19:01,388 --> 00:19:03,788 Speaker 1: Jim Mercy. He just said, no, I don't like you know. 418 00:19:03,908 --> 00:19:06,468 Speaker 1: Arthur Blank instead tries to make some comparison about Lamar 419 00:19:06,548 --> 00:19:08,268 Speaker 1: Jackson not playing the last couple of years and his 420 00:19:08,548 --> 00:19:10,428 Speaker 1: career arc won't be the same because of how the 421 00:19:10,548 --> 00:19:13,948 Speaker 1: style he plays. I don't appreciate it and I want 422 00:19:13,988 --> 00:19:16,628 Speaker 1: Tho's best for him. Well said Ryan as always coming 423 00:19:16,668 --> 00:19:19,028 Speaker 1: in a quarterback play and takes you know what it's 424 00:19:19,068 --> 00:19:20,988 Speaker 1: like to be in that position, and we appreciate it. 425 00:19:21,428 --> 00:19:24,388 Speaker 1: From Ryan Leave to Will Salva on the West Coals, Will, 426 00:19:24,388 --> 00:19:26,988 Speaker 1: how are you doing, which up to Matt, Hey, what's up? Everybody? 427 00:19:27,108 --> 00:19:30,188 Speaker 1: Great to have everybody there in studio. Of course, the 428 00:19:30,308 --> 00:19:34,428 Speaker 1: annual league meeting in Arizona wrapping up on Tuesday, and 429 00:19:34,508 --> 00:19:38,668 Speaker 1: the owners did discuss the possibility of teams getting flexed 430 00:19:38,828 --> 00:19:42,148 Speaker 1: into a second Thursday night game in the same season. Now, 431 00:19:42,268 --> 00:19:45,108 Speaker 1: players have voiced their concern that it brings about the 432 00:19:45,188 --> 00:19:48,508 Speaker 1: possibility of being injured, but Commissioner Roger Goodell says that 433 00:19:48,668 --> 00:19:51,668 Speaker 1: safety for the players is the number one priority and 434 00:19:51,748 --> 00:19:56,508 Speaker 1: the numbers don't reflect an increase in injuries. I think 435 00:19:56,548 --> 00:19:59,108 Speaker 1: we have data that's very clear doesn't show a higher 436 00:19:59,188 --> 00:20:03,388 Speaker 1: injury rate, but we recognize shorter weeks. We went through 437 00:20:03,428 --> 00:20:05,428 Speaker 1: this from COVID too. I hear from a lot of 438 00:20:05,428 --> 00:20:09,188 Speaker 1: players directly too. They love the ten days afterwards. In fact, 439 00:20:09,188 --> 00:20:12,308 Speaker 1: they call it a mini buy, and so there's some 440 00:20:12,468 --> 00:20:14,868 Speaker 1: benefits on that side. So you have different views. You 441 00:20:14,988 --> 00:20:17,748 Speaker 1: want to consider all of them. But players have different views, 442 00:20:17,788 --> 00:20:20,268 Speaker 1: coaches have different views, and we have to try to 443 00:20:20,308 --> 00:20:25,068 Speaker 1: balance all of it. In Philadelphia, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts 444 00:20:25,188 --> 00:20:27,388 Speaker 1: is entering the final year of his rookie contract, but 445 00:20:27,548 --> 00:20:30,508 Speaker 1: don't expect him to be leaving the city brother Lee Love. 446 00:20:30,908 --> 00:20:34,188 Speaker 1: General manager Howie Roseman says they want to extend Hurts 447 00:20:34,268 --> 00:20:39,068 Speaker 1: quote relatively soon. Tim Olewnard Jeffrey Lurry spoke to reporters 448 00:20:39,148 --> 00:20:43,868 Speaker 1: Tuesday and echoed Roseman's sentiment on Hurts. I think the 449 00:20:43,988 --> 00:20:46,988 Speaker 1: future is so great for him. He's twenty four years old. Honestly, 450 00:20:47,028 --> 00:20:48,908 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever met somebody that mature 451 00:20:48,948 --> 00:20:54,628 Speaker 1: at age twenty four. I've always said to you, guys, quarterback, GM, coach, facilities, 452 00:20:54,708 --> 00:20:58,308 Speaker 1: stadium scouting, those kind of things, those are the keys, 453 00:20:58,548 --> 00:21:01,868 Speaker 1: and once you can find it, that's when you're really excited. 454 00:21:02,068 --> 00:21:04,028 Speaker 1: And so we'll be working with Jaylen, I'm sure for 455 00:21:04,108 --> 00:21:09,428 Speaker 1: a long time. The league considered several new rules for 456 00:21:09,668 --> 00:21:14,068 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty three upcoming season. For more on that, 457 00:21:14,668 --> 00:21:17,428 Speaker 1: we send it over to Judy Batista, Steve Weish, and 458 00:21:17,548 --> 00:21:21,228 Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport. Thanks Will. At the annual league meetings, always 459 00:21:21,268 --> 00:21:24,468 Speaker 1: a couple rules changes and modifications to keep an eye 460 00:21:24,548 --> 00:21:28,508 Speaker 1: for the twenty twenty three season. Two important ones here. 461 00:21:28,708 --> 00:21:32,148 Speaker 1: Two important rules developments. First of all, the roughing the 462 00:21:32,268 --> 00:21:36,308 Speaker 1: passer penalty modification, which the Rams requested to have rough 463 00:21:36,388 --> 00:21:39,588 Speaker 1: in the past reviewable that did not pass once again, 464 00:21:39,668 --> 00:21:42,508 Speaker 1: really just never seem to get the momentum really toward anything. 465 00:21:42,588 --> 00:21:44,748 Speaker 1: So that is the status quo there and probably the 466 00:21:44,828 --> 00:21:48,108 Speaker 1: most significant rules change. Players are now allowed to wear 467 00:21:48,188 --> 00:21:51,308 Speaker 1: the number zero, just as one of my favorite Mets, 468 00:21:51,388 --> 00:21:53,748 Speaker 1: ray Or Donias once did. Just take him a little 469 00:21:53,748 --> 00:21:56,028 Speaker 1: more leeway as far as what numbers players can wear. 470 00:21:56,268 --> 00:21:58,868 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley, the new jag Ross receiver, came out right 471 00:21:58,908 --> 00:22:00,548 Speaker 1: away and said he is going to be the first 472 00:22:00,588 --> 00:22:04,028 Speaker 1: player to wear numbers zero, no doubt. Several other players 473 00:22:04,028 --> 00:22:06,708 Speaker 1: are going to follow pretty quiet Parsons already saying he's 474 00:22:06,748 --> 00:22:08,748 Speaker 1: gonna try to get zero now with the Cowboys linebacker. 475 00:22:08,948 --> 00:22:10,948 Speaker 1: One of the big decisions that was made is that 476 00:22:11,108 --> 00:22:13,668 Speaker 1: teams are now going to be allowed to play up 477 00:22:13,708 --> 00:22:17,188 Speaker 1: to two games per season on a short week on Thursday. 478 00:22:17,268 --> 00:22:19,428 Speaker 1: I am sure we're going to hear from the players 479 00:22:19,468 --> 00:22:21,388 Speaker 1: and the players union about that. They're probably not going 480 00:22:21,428 --> 00:22:24,428 Speaker 1: to be too happy and tabled here, but likely to 481 00:22:24,468 --> 00:22:29,028 Speaker 1: come up again in May is whether games are going 482 00:22:29,108 --> 00:22:31,428 Speaker 1: to be flexed into Thursday night and what kind of 483 00:22:31,628 --> 00:22:35,388 Speaker 1: notice will be given. There was some pushback. Let me 484 00:22:35,468 --> 00:22:38,628 Speaker 1: just read you what John Mara, the usually very measured 485 00:22:38,708 --> 00:22:41,188 Speaker 1: owner of the New York Giants had to say. He said, 486 00:22:41,348 --> 00:22:45,268 Speaker 1: he is adamantly opposed to it. He called the proposal abusive. 487 00:22:45,628 --> 00:22:47,828 Speaker 1: He made a plea to think about the fans who 488 00:22:47,828 --> 00:22:50,308 Speaker 1: actually attend the games, and he said, I mean, what 489 00:22:50,468 --> 00:22:52,748 Speaker 1: are we thinking about? So there you go, So there 490 00:22:52,828 --> 00:22:55,668 Speaker 1: you going. Also the Washington Commanders, there were some updates 491 00:22:55,788 --> 00:22:59,508 Speaker 1: on the potential development of the sale. Again the potential 492 00:22:59,588 --> 00:23:02,548 Speaker 1: buyers have been identified, but no real movement right here. 493 00:23:02,828 --> 00:23:06,108 Speaker 1: And also Roger Goodell said that regardless if and when 494 00:23:06,148 --> 00:23:10,108 Speaker 1: the team is sold, when investigator Mary Joe White binds 495 00:23:10,188 --> 00:23:14,268 Speaker 1: her findings about the workplace harassment investigations there with the Commanders, 496 00:23:14,628 --> 00:23:17,268 Speaker 1: those will be made public because they want to be 497 00:23:17,388 --> 00:23:21,148 Speaker 1: transparent to the regular football public and to Congress as well. 498 00:23:21,188 --> 00:23:22,468 Speaker 1: As we get ready to send it back to you, 499 00:23:22,548 --> 00:23:24,508 Speaker 1: it does seem, as far as a timeline goes for 500 00:23:24,588 --> 00:23:27,268 Speaker 1: the Commander's sale, it does seem having this wrapped up 501 00:23:27,308 --> 00:23:31,428 Speaker 1: by the May meeting in Minneapolis is at least a possibility. 502 00:23:32,228 --> 00:23:34,748 Speaker 1: All right, Ian, Steve Judy, thank you very much for that. 503 00:23:34,868 --> 00:23:37,588 Speaker 1: A lot to digest. Kyle be getting into it a 504 00:23:37,668 --> 00:23:40,268 Speaker 1: little bit later, but right now it is time for 505 00:23:40,348 --> 00:24:01,308 Speaker 1: What's Your Beef? Presented by Old Trapper beat Jerky. Good 506 00:24:01,388 --> 00:24:05,628 Speaker 1: Morning Football is presented by Old Trapper beef Jerky. What's 507 00:24:05,668 --> 00:24:11,628 Speaker 1: your Beef? All right, everybody? We begin this segment with 508 00:24:11,668 --> 00:24:14,708 Speaker 1: a quote from Gandhi, who once said, when you make 509 00:24:14,788 --> 00:24:19,268 Speaker 1: yourself into zero, your power becomes invincible. Gandhi did not 510 00:24:19,388 --> 00:24:21,308 Speaker 1: eat beef jerky or anything for that matter for a 511 00:24:21,348 --> 00:24:24,228 Speaker 1: while there, but he was right about zero. Exciting news yesterday, 512 00:24:24,268 --> 00:24:26,348 Speaker 1: you can wear zero in the NFL this season. I'm 513 00:24:26,348 --> 00:24:29,348 Speaker 1: talking about the number zero. Everyone was a flutter. Everyone 514 00:24:29,388 --> 00:24:31,668 Speaker 1: couldn't believe it, and so I wanted to ask the question, 515 00:24:31,868 --> 00:24:34,508 Speaker 1: why are we so fascinated by it? And where did 516 00:24:34,588 --> 00:24:36,788 Speaker 1: it come from? It? As a deepistor we're gonna get 517 00:24:36,788 --> 00:24:39,268 Speaker 1: into right now, guys. The number zero in the NFL 518 00:24:39,468 --> 00:24:41,828 Speaker 1: is Warren is back way back in the nineteen twenties. 519 00:24:41,948 --> 00:24:44,548 Speaker 1: It goes back a hundred years. We cannot confirm the 520 00:24:44,668 --> 00:24:46,828 Speaker 1: first player to ever wear it. It's shrouded in mystery, 521 00:24:46,948 --> 00:24:48,668 Speaker 1: but I want to show you the first well known 522 00:24:48,748 --> 00:24:51,548 Speaker 1: player to wear zero in the nineteen twenties was a 523 00:24:51,628 --> 00:24:54,628 Speaker 1: man named Wilbur Henry. He weighed two hundred and fifty 524 00:24:54,628 --> 00:24:56,468 Speaker 1: pounds he was the largest player in the league at 525 00:24:56,508 --> 00:24:59,148 Speaker 1: two fifty, so his nickname was Fats. I want to 526 00:24:59,188 --> 00:25:02,428 Speaker 1: remind everybody that Anthony Richardson is about two forty five 527 00:25:02,588 --> 00:25:05,108 Speaker 1: and he is almost as big as at ten REBD 528 00:25:05,268 --> 00:25:07,188 Speaker 1: was back in the twenties, and he wore a number 529 00:25:07,428 --> 00:25:09,628 Speaker 1: number zero, went on to wear that. Over a dozen 530 00:25:09,708 --> 00:25:11,788 Speaker 1: people were in the jersey number zero during a regular 531 00:25:11,828 --> 00:25:13,548 Speaker 1: season game over years and years. So the way it 532 00:25:13,628 --> 00:25:17,108 Speaker 1: goes through the nineteen thirties, nineteen forties, nineteen fifties, this 533 00:25:17,188 --> 00:25:19,228 Speaker 1: was standard. Guys would wear single zero, and then we 534 00:25:19,308 --> 00:25:22,348 Speaker 1: got into the double zeros. Eventually the NFL got into 535 00:25:22,348 --> 00:25:24,748 Speaker 1: a numbering system where it was position specific, and we'll 536 00:25:24,748 --> 00:25:28,868 Speaker 1: get into that a little bit. Nineteen sixty seven New 537 00:25:28,988 --> 00:25:34,028 Speaker 1: Orleans Saint Obert Logan was the last player to wear 538 00:25:34,068 --> 00:25:38,308 Speaker 1: a single zero. That is the expansion Saints, the expansive 539 00:25:38,388 --> 00:25:41,588 Speaker 1: year expansion year, Obert Logan to play defensive back nineteen 540 00:25:41,708 --> 00:25:44,628 Speaker 1: sixty seven, and he's the last player to ever wear 541 00:25:44,668 --> 00:25:47,068 Speaker 1: the single zero. When someone does it, and I saw 542 00:25:47,108 --> 00:25:49,508 Speaker 1: that Calvin Ridley already claimed it for this fall. He 543 00:25:49,628 --> 00:25:52,428 Speaker 1: will bridge the gap from this footage in nineteen sixty 544 00:25:52,468 --> 00:25:55,508 Speaker 1: seven to twenty twenty three for the Jacksonville Jaguars. That's 545 00:25:55,548 --> 00:25:58,588 Speaker 1: the last guy, and Obert Logan's nickname was the Little Oh, 546 00:25:58,908 --> 00:26:00,788 Speaker 1: and that's why he were, Oh, we're gonna see a 547 00:26:00,828 --> 00:26:02,868 Speaker 1: lot of players playing around with that. By the late 548 00:26:02,948 --> 00:26:06,868 Speaker 1: sixties early seventies, doub below was also being used. And 549 00:26:06,908 --> 00:26:09,668 Speaker 1: then they say in April fifth, nineteen seventy three, so 550 00:26:09,948 --> 00:26:13,108 Speaker 1: almost exactly fifty years ago, we came out with a 551 00:26:13,188 --> 00:26:15,028 Speaker 1: numbering system. Is the one that most of us grew 552 00:26:15,108 --> 00:26:18,148 Speaker 1: up with low numbers the specialists and quarterbacks lineman in 553 00:26:18,228 --> 00:26:20,468 Speaker 1: the sixties and seventies, and that stood for years and 554 00:26:20,588 --> 00:26:22,508 Speaker 1: years and years and years and years and years. But 555 00:26:22,628 --> 00:26:25,308 Speaker 1: when they came out with this, they said, no more 556 00:26:25,388 --> 00:26:29,548 Speaker 1: single zero and no more double zero. There's no official 557 00:26:29,668 --> 00:26:33,788 Speaker 1: explanation why other than just we're tightening things up. What's 558 00:26:33,828 --> 00:26:36,828 Speaker 1: fun now is that guys can be grandfathered in. If 559 00:26:36,908 --> 00:26:39,348 Speaker 1: you wore a double zero at this point before this, 560 00:26:39,908 --> 00:26:41,548 Speaker 1: you could rock it out on the field. So then 561 00:26:41,628 --> 00:26:45,228 Speaker 1: we got legends. Only two players weren't. In nineteen seventy four, 562 00:26:45,948 --> 00:26:50,548 Speaker 1: Jim Otto retired from the NFL. Jim Otto was doub 563 00:26:50,548 --> 00:26:53,748 Speaker 1: below and his name was Otto, so he became doublelow 564 00:26:53,868 --> 00:26:57,028 Speaker 1: jim Otto, and it was just perfect. You're seeing a 565 00:26:57,108 --> 00:26:59,148 Speaker 1: lot of word play with the number and the names, 566 00:26:59,188 --> 00:27:02,228 Speaker 1: and I'm sure this falls somewhere Odell will wear oh, 567 00:27:02,388 --> 00:27:04,388 Speaker 1: and we'll all lose our minds, but it'd be perfect. 568 00:27:04,468 --> 00:27:06,068 Speaker 1: So jim Otto is a legend. He played in the 569 00:27:06,148 --> 00:27:08,428 Speaker 1: Heidi game, The Holy Roller. There he is snapping the ball. 570 00:27:08,708 --> 00:27:10,788 Speaker 1: He did it. So who's the last player to ever 571 00:27:10,948 --> 00:27:13,828 Speaker 1: wear a zero and catch a touchdown pass to make 572 00:27:13,868 --> 00:27:16,668 Speaker 1: a big play on offense? Guys, that's Ken Burrow of 573 00:27:16,788 --> 00:27:19,308 Speaker 1: the Houston Oilers. You're gonna see a wide receiver. Get 574 00:27:19,348 --> 00:27:21,068 Speaker 1: ready because you're gonna see it this year. There's Kenny 575 00:27:21,108 --> 00:27:24,868 Speaker 1: Stabler throwing left handed to a wide receiver. We're in 576 00:27:24,948 --> 00:27:28,268 Speaker 1: double zero in an Oiler's uniform, and the optics are 577 00:27:28,348 --> 00:27:33,988 Speaker 1: just insane, just insane, pretty cool, right, that was nineteen 578 00:27:34,108 --> 00:27:36,468 Speaker 1: eighty one. Was a last player to wear double zero 579 00:27:36,508 --> 00:27:40,228 Speaker 1: in the game. So it all changed just a couple 580 00:27:40,228 --> 00:27:42,988 Speaker 1: of years ago. So this stood zero and double zero 581 00:27:43,028 --> 00:27:45,548 Speaker 1: unless you were a grandfather, was gone for forty fifty 582 00:27:45,628 --> 00:27:47,908 Speaker 1: years then, as we remember, a couple of years ago, 583 00:27:48,028 --> 00:27:50,948 Speaker 1: NFL owners approved the rule change provided or presented by 584 00:27:50,988 --> 00:27:53,508 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs and said, let's mess this thing up. 585 00:27:53,788 --> 00:27:56,708 Speaker 1: Let's get nuts. These college kids like the single digit numbers, 586 00:27:56,748 --> 00:27:58,748 Speaker 1: the old Reggie Bush thing where he wasn't allowed. So 587 00:27:58,908 --> 00:28:00,668 Speaker 1: then we became the reality we've been living for the 588 00:28:00,748 --> 00:28:03,028 Speaker 1: last few seasons, where a defensive end could wear seven, 589 00:28:03,308 --> 00:28:05,588 Speaker 1: a wide receiver could where one, on and on and on. 590 00:28:06,428 --> 00:28:08,908 Speaker 1: The proposal did not include the single zero jersey. They 591 00:28:08,948 --> 00:28:11,308 Speaker 1: did not want it. So that brings us to now 592 00:28:11,428 --> 00:28:14,468 Speaker 1: this year Marks thirteen, twenty twenty three saw Tom Pelaso 593 00:28:14,548 --> 00:28:17,588 Speaker 1: break the news a few weeks back the Eagles are 594 00:28:17,748 --> 00:28:20,308 Speaker 1: champions of single zero and said, you know, we have 595 00:28:20,348 --> 00:28:22,268 Speaker 1: a lot of retired numbers around the league. It's getting 596 00:28:22,308 --> 00:28:24,188 Speaker 1: hard the fifty three man plus the practice, We're just 597 00:28:24,268 --> 00:28:27,468 Speaker 1: kind of running out of numbers. Let's do the single zero. 598 00:28:27,628 --> 00:28:31,388 Speaker 1: They did not propose double zero, only single. It gets 599 00:28:31,508 --> 00:28:35,188 Speaker 1: voted in it's happening, which means this season you will 600 00:28:35,228 --> 00:28:38,108 Speaker 1: see potentially your favorite player or your favorite rookie goes 601 00:28:38,348 --> 00:28:41,988 Speaker 1: single zero out on the field. Just didn't look around 602 00:28:42,028 --> 00:28:44,748 Speaker 1: other sports. It's very popular in the NBA, and it 603 00:28:44,828 --> 00:28:48,708 Speaker 1: has been since Orlando Woolridge, and we obviously know Russell 604 00:28:48,748 --> 00:28:53,308 Speaker 1: Westbrook out there. You have Dame Lillard, of course, Jason Tatum, 605 00:28:53,388 --> 00:28:56,188 Speaker 1: Jordan Clarkson. They have single and double zero in the NBA, 606 00:28:56,788 --> 00:28:59,348 Speaker 1: and they'll be players can also wear zero. It's not 607 00:28:59,508 --> 00:29:02,068 Speaker 1: very popular that the NHL has not allowed it's these 608 00:29:02,108 --> 00:29:04,988 Speaker 1: are old school pictures. NHL has not allowed it since 609 00:29:05,028 --> 00:29:07,948 Speaker 1: the mid nineties for a strange, mysterious reason that it 610 00:29:08,068 --> 00:29:10,668 Speaker 1: confuses their digital database. I don't know if that's like 611 00:29:10,748 --> 00:29:12,828 Speaker 1: one of these white two K things where the zero 612 00:29:12,948 --> 00:29:16,628 Speaker 1: zero messes up there. Filing also and bringing to the 613 00:29:16,628 --> 00:29:19,668 Speaker 1: point you're I'll bring it home. NC double A started 614 00:29:19,668 --> 00:29:22,708 Speaker 1: allowing single zero in the twenty twenty season. So you've 615 00:29:22,748 --> 00:29:25,508 Speaker 1: got notable players in the league right now who wore 616 00:29:25,548 --> 00:29:28,148 Speaker 1: it in college. You got Rashad Bateman on the Ravens, 617 00:29:28,228 --> 00:29:30,788 Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd on the Jags, and jalaln Watson on the Chiefs, 618 00:29:31,028 --> 00:29:34,348 Speaker 1: all wore it in college. And last of all bringing 619 00:29:34,388 --> 00:29:36,468 Speaker 1: it to the headlines, bringing it to the month of April, 620 00:29:37,068 --> 00:29:40,508 Speaker 1: big time draft prospects who wore it just last season. 621 00:29:40,948 --> 00:29:43,268 Speaker 1: Christian Gonzalez, the Oregon corner is going to be a 622 00:29:43,348 --> 00:29:46,108 Speaker 1: huge high draft pick, very likely to wear it next year. 623 00:29:46,308 --> 00:29:48,748 Speaker 1: And then Darnel Washington. The Georgia tight end was out 624 00:29:48,828 --> 00:29:52,108 Speaker 1: there wearing zero. So now that it's open season on 625 00:29:52,268 --> 00:29:55,868 Speaker 1: zero and the optics change, do players start flocking to it? 626 00:29:55,988 --> 00:29:58,388 Speaker 1: Do players start changing? Let's bring up one Dallas Cowboys 627 00:29:58,428 --> 00:30:02,468 Speaker 1: superstar who didn't even hesitate yesterday and said, I'm switching 628 00:30:02,988 --> 00:30:05,948 Speaker 1: Asian zero coming So Mike is gonna buy out the 629 00:30:06,068 --> 00:30:09,468 Speaker 1: elevens switched to zero. And I've seen some people say 630 00:30:09,468 --> 00:30:11,908 Speaker 1: it's ugly, it's dumb. I don't like it. I like 631 00:30:12,068 --> 00:30:15,268 Speaker 1: all the potential of zero. People believed in me. Maybe 632 00:30:15,428 --> 00:30:18,628 Speaker 1: zero people can beat meeting zero, people can block me. 633 00:30:19,028 --> 00:30:21,428 Speaker 1: It is back, It is here to stay. Gandhi was right, 634 00:30:21,548 --> 00:30:25,028 Speaker 1: making yourself zero makes yourself powerful. That's the take. Brockers. 635 00:30:25,228 --> 00:30:27,588 Speaker 1: Do you like zero? Um? I think I like zero. 636 00:30:27,628 --> 00:30:29,628 Speaker 1: I think I like it on the more skill players. 637 00:30:29,668 --> 00:30:31,868 Speaker 1: On the skill players, it's cool. On the big guys, 638 00:30:31,988 --> 00:30:34,188 Speaker 1: not at all. You wouldn't award you wouldn't award zero 639 00:30:34,228 --> 00:30:36,468 Speaker 1: on the line. No. No, And for the record, the 640 00:30:36,508 --> 00:30:39,068 Speaker 1: new policy on line and D line not allowed towards zero. 641 00:30:39,148 --> 00:30:41,228 Speaker 1: You can it's great, Nelson. Great change is number to 642 00:30:41,348 --> 00:30:43,428 Speaker 1: zero next year. You feel like the fast guys. I 643 00:30:43,428 --> 00:30:45,268 Speaker 1: feel like the fast guys should have it. It's you know, 644 00:30:45,548 --> 00:30:47,548 Speaker 1: people are gonna get mad because Micauld plays on the 645 00:30:48,148 --> 00:30:49,908 Speaker 1: line so much and they're gonna be like, how does 646 00:30:49,948 --> 00:30:52,588 Speaker 1: he get it? So you're gonna have some you have 647 00:30:52,748 --> 00:30:54,948 Speaker 1: some people with some flag. But I think the skill 648 00:30:55,028 --> 00:30:57,028 Speaker 1: players wearing it. I think it's cool. I don't like 649 00:30:57,108 --> 00:30:59,588 Speaker 1: any single digit number on big guys. I hear that 650 00:30:59,708 --> 00:31:01,988 Speaker 1: old school I love it. I'm just here for when 651 00:31:02,068 --> 00:31:05,268 Speaker 1: double zero comes back. Yeah, the single zero, it's fine, 652 00:31:05,348 --> 00:31:07,788 Speaker 1: it's all great. Guys will switch to it. But whenever 653 00:31:07,908 --> 00:31:10,868 Speaker 1: double zero comes back, that's a number for a linement 654 00:31:10,988 --> 00:31:13,828 Speaker 1: offensive and defensive. Let him rock to double zero. Although 655 00:31:13,868 --> 00:31:15,588 Speaker 1: now that I know the history to the double zero, 656 00:31:15,668 --> 00:31:17,708 Speaker 1: like mister Otto himself like that to me, and I 657 00:31:17,828 --> 00:31:20,388 Speaker 1: was the only name that plays with double zero because 658 00:31:20,428 --> 00:31:23,348 Speaker 1: of the application of the Otto and down. So you 659 00:31:23,388 --> 00:31:25,548 Speaker 1: can only you have to apply and have I also 660 00:31:25,628 --> 00:31:27,868 Speaker 1: like zero in on me, or at least try too, 661 00:31:27,988 --> 00:31:30,628 Speaker 1: but you can't. So I am zero like. I like it. 662 00:31:30,788 --> 00:31:32,588 Speaker 1: I like that space to be going a double zero 663 00:31:32,628 --> 00:31:33,988 Speaker 1: and then we're gonna have to go to like a hundred. 664 00:31:34,068 --> 00:31:39,668 Speaker 1: We're gonna let's go negative. This was the antithesis of 665 00:31:39,828 --> 00:31:43,068 Speaker 1: what's your beef? You are welcoming, you are welcoming the zero. Yeah, 666 00:31:43,108 --> 00:31:45,588 Speaker 1: so anyone who has beef with zero? That was your segment. 667 00:31:45,628 --> 00:31:47,868 Speaker 1: Thank you to the Eagles.

Jamie and Kyle's over there, like 678 00:32:20,548 --> 00:32:22,548 Speaker 1: make sure you zoom out so you can see the box. 679 00:32:22,668 --> 00:32:24,188 Speaker 1: But I just grew a little bit.
