Your phone calls are 7 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: always welcome. We got a poll question or two. No 8 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: updates on Tiger Wood still in the hospital. If we 9 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: find anything that we'll move the story forward, we certainly will. 10 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: Eight seven seven three d P Show email address DP 11 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: at Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show. 12 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: Yesterday we had Mike Florio on from Pro Football Talk 13 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: and we were talking about a variety of things, and 14 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: then we got around to at the end of the 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: interview talking about the seventeen game schedule that's going to 16 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: happen in the NFL. And I had a source tell 17 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,959 Speaker 1: me yesterday morning. I said, what is the hold up? 18 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: And my source said, it's the TV money. They're still 19 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: trying to finalize all these TV contracts with ESPN, ABC, 20 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: with NBC, with Fox, if they're going to have Amazon 21 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: whoever it is, streaming, and they want to make sure 22 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: they know just how much money is at stake because 23 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: the players are going to get a check for that 24 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: seventeenth game. And then Mike Florio said, well, it's going 25 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,919 Speaker 1: to be seventeen regular season games and three preseason games. 26 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: And then he said it's going to then move to 27 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: eighteen game regular season and two preseason games. So I 28 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: followed up with my source yesterday after the show, and 29 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: I said, and I trust Florio, but I said, you know, 30 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: Mike said this about an eighteen game schedule, and my 31 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: source said, no, it can't happen. We have an agreement 32 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: for eleven years that it would be a seventeen game schedule. 33 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: It can't go to eighteen games. Can't. And this was 34 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 1: from a source who would have information on this working 35 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: for the least seventeen games, three preseason games. It's not 36 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: going to go to eighteen game regular season and then 37 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: two preseason games. But Mike thought that that would be 38 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: the sort of natural evolution here. And this is what 39 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: my source told me yesterday. So that's eleven years down 40 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: the road if we get to an eighteen game schedule. Now, 41 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 1: I know contracts are meant to be broken, but I 42 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: think they're trying to figure out how much money is 43 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: going to be in play, and then what do the 44 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: players get when they have all those TV deals done? 45 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: But that's what I was told yesterday. There will be 46 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: a seventeenth game to the regular season, three preseason games. 47 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: But it does not evolve into well, of course you 48 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: go eighteen regular season games two preseason games, because I 49 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: was told there's an eleven year contract that has been 50 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 1: agreed to. Yes, Pauling, which party would do you think 51 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: is holding up the seventeen game schedule, the league or 52 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: the players union or just details. Well, this is about 53 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: the owners and what they want from the networks, So 54 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: it's just about negotiating it. Yeah, they're going to have 55 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: a seventeenth game. They don't know how much money they're 56 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: going to make, and I think that's what they want 57 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: to know. Once they have the TV deals done. Then 58 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: I was told you'll have finalization on a seventeenth game 59 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: for the regular season, and that they will do three 60 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: preseason games. And I was told the third preseason game 61 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 1: is really important because that's where you get guys who 62 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: get a chance to make the team. But you also 63 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: get the veterans to usually play that third game as 64 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: they get ready for the regular season, so it is important. 65 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: But I'm just that's information that I wanted to give 66 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: to you right off the top.

Literally. All right, we'll come up with 96 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: a poll question. Play of the day, stat of the 97 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: day coming up. The Jazz Laker game last night hardly 98 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: a showdown of Western Conference powers right now. The Lakers 99 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: don't look like a contender, and the Jazz continued their 100 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,359 Speaker 1: three point barrage. They blew out the Lakers, and the 101 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 1: Lakers are shorthanded. You don't have the offensive firepower, you 102 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: don't have the defensive presence without Anthony Davis. But you know, 103 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: the question is always here, we are in February. Does 104 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: this mean anything? What will the Jazz learn that will 105 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: help them in May or June? They got a complete roster. 106 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: I mean they blew out the Lakers, Donovan Mitchell had 107 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,799 Speaker 1: an off night, Mike Conley stepped up, Bogdanovich, key bench 108 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: players Jordan Clarkson, Rudy Gobert, and All Star. You might 109 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: not find too many holes in this Jazz lineup. And 110 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: you don't what I love about the Jazz when you 111 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 1: watch them now, I know you're gonna go whether they're 112 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: not very exciting and this is not gonna this is 113 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: not tune in factor. Trust me when I say this, 114 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: you're not gonna go. Well, I gotta go out of 115 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: my way to watch the Utah Jazz. Now. They are 116 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:21,239 Speaker 1: as economical as any player in the NBA, any team 117 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:27,119 Speaker 1: in the NBA. They pass, they don't. They dribble less 118 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: than any other team. Now, I know, I know what 119 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: you're saying. They pass quicker more often than any other 120 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: team in the NBA. Don't do this, and I don't 121 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: want to say. You know, boy, you gotta go watch them. 122 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: If you love basketball and you don't want to see 123 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: somebody just pound the rock, watch the Utah Jazz. Now. 124 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: This is similar to what Golden State did a couple 125 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: of years ago with Klay Thompson. That doesn't mean they 126 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: have Klay Thompson and Steph Curry and Kevin Durant. But 127 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: I know what they're doing, how they're doing it. I 128 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: don't know if it's sustainable when it gets to the postseason. 129 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: But I don't have many questions with the Utah Jazz 130 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: right now. I don't have any answers with the Lakers 131 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: right now. And it's just the regular season and it's 132 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: no need to panic. But it's the Lakers. Therefore it's clickbait. 133 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: Therefore people will say it's time to panic with the Lakers. 134 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: This stretch isn't pretty for the defending champs. But let's 135 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: see when everybody gets healthy. The season hinges on Anthony Davis. 136 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: As great as Lebron is can be. If Anthony Davis 137 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: is not one or near that, they're not winning the championship. 138 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: It's plain and simple, because I keep waiting for the 139 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: role players to step up, because we all talked about, 140 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: including yours. Truly, Hey, they got depth, they're better than 141 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: they were the previous year. If they don't have Anthony Davis, 142 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter enter because you've seen these players and 143 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: there's a ceiling to just how good they are. And 144 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: Lebron is going to try to do too much. Here 145 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: is Lebron after the loss to the Jazz. Well, obviously 146 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: we all got to do a better job, you know, 147 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: in our own individual self that will carry on to 148 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: the team, and you know, and pick up in eighties 149 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: and then his absence, you know, we just hit a 150 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: rough patch, you know. And it happens throughout the course 151 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: of a season. You know, you don't want it to happen, 152 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: but when it does, and I think it defines character, 153 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: It challenge you, and you know, you just get ready 154 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: for the bounceback. So you learn from tonight, learn from 155 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 1: the previous games, and didn't get ready for the next one. 156 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: That's Lebron voice after a loss right there, and not 157 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: much excitement in there, and you watch and they're just 158 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 1: not a good team. And if Anthony Davis comes back, 159 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: when he comes back, if he's healthy, and this is 160 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: where I would air to the side of caution to 161 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: find the Lakers. You say a month, if it's six weeks, 162 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: it's six weeks. I just want him healthy once they 163 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: get to the postseason. But if you're not going to 164 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: be healthy in May, it doesn't matter. You're not winning 165 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: the championship there and look Utah's a good team, Denver's 166 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: a good team. Clippers can be a good team. You know, 167 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: there is competition out west, and it's not one of 168 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: those where the Lakers can go through the motions and 169 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: be able to win another championship. It's just not going 170 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: to happen. But watching last night should be more about 171 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz. It won't be. It'll be about the 172 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: Lakers and the questions that we have and time to 173 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: panic that those will be the headlines. Nobody's going to say, 174 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: you know what, Utah Jazz are pretty good because they are. 175 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: It's a good team. Can it be a great team? 176 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: Can it be a seven game series? Great team? That'll 177 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: be the key. Yeah, Paul, your Jazz. Last night they 178 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: play at the House of Jealo Built. They were forty 179 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: six percent from three of the team twenty two or 180 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: forty eight. They had twenty eight assists as a team 181 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: and only twelve turnovers. Yeah, that's pretty nutty ratio. I 182 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: like what they do. It's not exciting basketball, it's not 183 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: high flying, it's none of that, but it is You 184 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: know what your role is and you take care of 185 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: that role. And a lot of times as a coach, 186 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 1: that's what you want. It's players who try to think 187 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: there's something that they're not. That's where you get in 188 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: trouble watching last night, and look, that's not necessarily a 189 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: large sample size with this team, but that's probably the 190 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 1: first time people have watched the Utah Jazz on national TV. 191 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: By the way, great great uniforms by the Utah Jazz 192 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: last night. I liked it. I liked it a lot. 193 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: This program brought to you by M Drive back by 194 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: Science Powerful Ingredients, the supplement I take every day.

We didn't know that 203 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: Utah was, per capita, the biggest jello state in the country. 204 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: They love their jello. We did not know that. We 205 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: know that now there are Utah jellos. Yes, Paul they 206 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: should sign li Angelo ball. Oh you've been sitting on 207 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: that one. Ye take that Fritzie. Yeah, wasn't there at all? 208 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: The Astros put your name, Mark Lemon Jelloz. I felt 209 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: like I had to come back with supplement. Why can't 210 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: you just take your beating kids? Folly had a double 211 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: off the wall? Did I thought I was maybe get 212 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: a hit of single to bring him in. Now you 213 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: had a dribbler back to the mound. I got him 214 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: over to food, no sacrifice. You didn't even get him 215 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: over to their And then mclovenal hit of my ball 216 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 1: and he'll tie up and we'll get the running. I'm 217 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: caught a rundown over here, all right, mcloven. What kind 218 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: of poll question? Um, will Rudy Gobert be bad? Medium 219 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: or average? No? No No, no, that's not our full question. 220 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: Who's worse in the playoffs, Jokich or Gobert. I've seen 221 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: this jazz team. They did the same thing last year. Okay, anyway, 222 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: you're doubling down on your song, Jellos. Yes, here's the 223 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 1: reason I'm not allowed to say the poll question today. 224 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: I was given a strong request slash demand to let 225 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: Paul read the poll question oh is this the one 226 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: that was brought up about an hour ago? Is this 227 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: JJ want? Okay? Okay, hold yeah, you're right, Hold on, 228 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: Polly stretching before he gives you the poll question JJ Want. 229 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: Whenever jj Wat's name comes up, Pollie always feels like 230 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: he is the what are you polkeeper? Yeah, maybe it's 231 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: like Andy Dalton or case Keenum with mcloven. He senses 232 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 1: it in you know. Okay, Yes, it's like one of 233 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: those stars who has a guy next to him you 234 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: talk to to talk to that star, like the rock stars, 235 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: you know, like you can't talk directly to them, and 236 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 1: you talk to Paulie to get to JJ Like Dennis 237 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: Rodman during the NBA Finals couldn't talk directly to Prince. 238 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: He had to talk to Prince's bodyguard, who then relayed 239 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: the message to Prince. Since you brought up Prince, it'd 240 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: be like Morris Day and Jerome Purple Rain. All right, 241 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: all right, So your jj WAT related poll question is 242 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: jj Watt is the free agent. He's over thirty years old, 243 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: he's got a few more years left to play, and 244 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: he's made at least one hundred million dollars already. Based 245 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: off that, if you were JJ Watt, would you sign 246 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: for a reported fifteen million dollars with a good team 247 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: such as the Bills or the Titans, or signed for 248 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: half that, let's say seven or eight million dollars with 249 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl favorite, hence the Chiefs or maybe the Bucks. Okay, 250 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: what would you guys do? I don't want to spend 251 00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: somebody else's money, But if JJ wants to win, now 252 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 1: the Titans and Bills. Now, I think he's going to 253 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: the Bills. The Titans have emerged as one of the 254 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: favorites as well, and maybe Green Bay in there, I 255 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: said from the outset, if I'm JJ Watt, I'm at 256 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: least curious if the Chiefs are interested in me and 257 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 1: vice versa, because that would be hey, I could go 258 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: to the Kansas City Chiefs, and I got a better 259 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: chance of winning a championship there than I do Green 260 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: Bay and Tennessee and Buffalo, at least, I would think 261 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: for next year. I don't know if he's interested in 262 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: joining the Cavalcade of All Stars with Tom Brady and 263 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. But if you said I could go to 264 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City for seven or I could go to the 265 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: Titans for fifteen, let's put it that way. Now, I 266 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: know that he has a really good relationship with Mike Rabel, 267 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: who's the Titans said coach, and that would factor in 268 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: as well, playing for a guy that you who was 269 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: on the Texans coaching staff. But if you want to ring, 270 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: do you want to do? You want to give give 271 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: the impression that you want to ring while you still 272 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: want to get paid, if you know what I mean, 273 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: Like I want to I want to win. I'm going 274 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: to the Titans. Now if he goes to the Chiefs, 275 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: does he get critiqued like Carl Malone and Gary Payton did, like, oh, 276 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: you're trying to steal a ring, But fifteen for a 277 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: good team, seven for the Kansas City Chiefs or Tampa 278 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers. I don't want to spend his money. Yeah, see, 279 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to spend his money either, But I'm 280 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: taking that seven all day already. Got I don't look, 281 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of money he's got in 282 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: the bank, but he's been paid well the last however 283 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: many years. Yeah, I don't know. Maybe he spends a 284 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: lot of money too, I don't know. Let's do career 285 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: salary here with J. J.

I know, by JJ, how many says j 293 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: J Watt earned up to this point in his NFL career. 294 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: Now there's a hint. He may have been mentioned earlier 295 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: in the show by me. I'm gonna say one hundred 296 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: and twelve million dollars one hundred million even Dan, oh, 297 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: even steam I joked earlier that he's got one hundred 298 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: million in the bank. Well, because you make it doesn't 299 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: mean you have it in the bank.

Okay, do 303 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: you see him as a broadcaster. I don't. I think 304 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: the networks would do. Yeah, but that's a guy you 305 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: want to see. Yeah, you don't want to hear as 306 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: much as you want to see J. J. Watt. I 307 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: wonder if he would do something like Peyton Manning is doing, 308 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 1: where he would travel around a shoot a show. Yeah, 309 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: I mean I see him more in the Gronk, you 310 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: know that that kind of feel there where the Watt 311 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: brothers continue to do some things. Yeah, he strikes me 312 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: as the kind of guy who who's not going to 313 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: be happy in the booth or in a studio somewhere. 314 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: I think he wants to be right out on the 315 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: practice field, like some kind of defensive end coach or 316 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 1: something where it's like he wants to be around all 317 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: the guys and doing all the stuff. How about he 318 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: plays for the Titans for two years and Mike Rabel says, 319 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: why don't you just join the staff. That's exactly right. 320 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: He didn't wear a suit and time way he wants 321 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: to be around the dudes lifting weights and tackling each other, 322 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: smacking each other on the rear end. Yeah, yeah, yeah, McLevin, 323 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: I totally agree that he does want all that, but 324 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: you know, assistant coach hours in pay, there's no way 325 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: he's gonna want that. He's already got his money, right, 326 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: but they have to work like eighty hour weeks breaking 327 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: down tape. He doesn't. So you can be like sort 328 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: of an honorary who comes out there and slap by 329 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: Why does he have to break down the tape.

But off the field, we helped Grandma's cross 343 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: cross hunk.

If you were J. J. Watt. 406 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: Would you rather sign for fifteen million for a good team, 407 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: like a playoff team like the Titans, or seven point 408 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: five million for a Super Bowl content hender like the 409 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs are bucks. Well, how about you put it in parentheses? 410 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: Fifteen million Titans, Bills, Packers, seven and a half million 411 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: Chiefs in the Buccaneers Okay, Packers are on that Bills 412 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: Titans line. Yeah, yeah, okay, so far the early results 413 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: are eighty three percent. Say they take the seven point 414 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: five million? Okay, Yes, the Chiefs are the favorite to 415 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. Buccaneers are right next to them. 416 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: Then it drops a tier to Packers, Bills, Rams, Niners. 417 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: Then it drops another tier to Ravens, Brown Saints, Seahawks, Colts, 418 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers, Miami Dolphins. The Tennessee Titans are twelfth in 419 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: odds to win the Super Bowl as of right now. 420 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: But JJ has a relationship with Mike Vrabel and what 421 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,719 Speaker 1: do you want to stay in that division in the 422 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: AFC South. But let's bring in Chris Sims Pro Football 423 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: Talk Line. Where where do you stand on that question? Chris? Well, 424 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: as far is the AFC South's concerned and good to 425 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: see it are good to see you, Dan, But you know, 426 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: I don't think I'll have an issue with that. I mean, 427 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: the Titans still have so many things to like about 428 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: their football team. And of course, you know, defensive line, 429 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: lack of pass rushers, disruptors, secondary, the defense needs to 430 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: be improved there. You know, JJ Watt fits into any 431 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: scheme he can do four three three four. I think 432 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: that's why you see so many teams interested in him. 433 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: And yeah, that history between Mike Vrabel there is certainly 434 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,360 Speaker 1: something there to it. And really the way Houston has 435 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: run their organization here the last few years, I'm not 436 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: so sure JJ wouldn't like going to play Tennessee and 437 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: sticking it to them here, you know, I mean the Texans. Yeah, sorry, yes, yeah, 438 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't be shocked if you wouldn't mind 439 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: sticking it to them and just going, hey, you know 440 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: here I am. I'm with a winner eat that. But 441 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: I wonder if you know, we always say, well, it's 442 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: not always about money. It always feels like it's about money. 443 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: JJ Watch made one hundred million million dollars in his career. 444 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: How important is winning? And if that's the case, why 445 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: not go to the why not say to the Kansas 446 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 1: City Chiefs, Hey, whatever you want to pay me, I'm 447 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: coming there. We're winning a championship. I agreed. You know, 448 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: I don't think that's crazy. I mean Green Bay up there, 449 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: they could use guys they have, They still have deficiencies 450 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: as far as their interior part of their defensive line. 451 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: And at this point of his career, you kind of 452 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: said it, right, Dan, he's got a ton of money, 453 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think that should be or at 454 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: least if I was in his situation, wouldn't be the 455 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: make or break point to me. It'd be, hey, pay 456 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 1: me something respectful, you know, respectful, and you know I'll 457 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: try to add to your team. You know, JJ Watts 458 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: still a really good player, but we know he has 459 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: had a little bit of injury history over the last 460 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: few years and his production has fallen off. I mean 461 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: for the sack master he was, you know, I think 462 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: he's had twenty six and a half sacks or someone 463 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: there somewhere around there over the last five years. So 464 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: he's not the same guy he was. But I certainly 465 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: do think he brings value to a team. I can't 466 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: imagine a team paying him fifteen sixteen million dollars a year. 467 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: At this point, I'm not sure if I believe those 468 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: reports yet. I'd have to hear something a little more 469 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: substantial to believe that. One. When do you buy into 470 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: a mock draft or mocked drafts? Not right yet, I 471 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: know that, But I get what point in the process 472 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: do you go that might be a little truer representation 473 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: of what teams are going to do. I would say 474 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: when you get to those last two or three weeks 475 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: before the draft, there's just too many unknowns right now. 476 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: You know one, and no disrespect, but there's so many 477 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,719 Speaker 1: media outlets, there's a lot of people who you know, 478 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 1: are not the best evaluators are qualified to do that. 479 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: So I want to be like, Okay, well, I mean, 480 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 1: you don't know. And then then the other thing I 481 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: think that's that's into this and the teams don't know yet. 482 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: They're really the teams are just starting to dive into 483 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: the draft themselves. Here it's been free agency figuring out 484 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: our own team, what do we need, how are we 485 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: going to balance a salary cap and all those things too, 486 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: So that of course, once they start to figure out 487 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: the draft, it filters out to the people I do 488 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: respect in the business, you know, the Danielle Jeremiah's and 489 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: those guys. They start to get a feel for what 490 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 1: they're hearing from teams, and then those are that that's 491 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 1: the time when I start to go, okay, all right, 492 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: I'll pay attention to that Mac draft who there's some 493 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: logic there. I know he knows this team, so there's 494 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: something there to that, and that's when I start to 495 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: really pay attention. But you get this, this guy's rising, 496 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: this guy's falling. Well, they haven't played a game in months, 497 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: and it feels like we're getting to the point when 498 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: the you know, the coaches of the GMS or the 499 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: scouts are able to be get a better handle on 500 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: assessing just how good these players are. Like Mac Jones 501 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: at Alabama, all of the sudden, Mac Jones is moving up. 502 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: Like what did Mac Jones do or not do that 503 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: makes him, you know, rise up in the first round. 504 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: Well I think that. I think like kind of what 505 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: I just said is there's too many and again I'm 506 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: not there's just too many unqualified people making qualifying statements 507 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: at times here and just oh yeah, Mac Jones end 508 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: of the first round. I've said it every day this week. 509 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: I said it on my podcast Mac Jones from and 510 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm early here, Dan, I've just started. I really only 511 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: looked at like good throws of these quarterbacks. I'm about 512 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 1: to dive in here. Mac Jones is a better prospect 513 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: than two of Mac Jones is gonna go in the 514 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: top ten from just what I've seen right now, I'd 515 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 1: be shocked. I think there's gonna be four, probably in 516 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: the top eight. Just a base comment right now, and 517 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: you can have me on in a few weeks and 518 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: I'll really get into the nitty gritty with these quarterbacks 519 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: and give you a great breakdown and all those type 520 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: of things. But I think that's what it is. And 521 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: I think what you're hearing rising is what we just 522 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: talked about too. Now. Some of the people in the 523 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: media are talking to people in the NFL who have 524 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: just started to turn on the film and they're going, 525 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: this Mac Jones guy. All he does throw spirals, perfect throws, 526 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: NFL type throws. He can change his arm, angle and 527 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: do those type of things. And I think that's why 528 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: you're kind of hearing that that chatter right now. Yeah, 529 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: but he was throwing to guys who were I mean 530 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: I know the last time a French you know, a 531 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: team had four first round draft picks over the you know, 532 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: a two year period, and that's what you're gonna have 533 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: with Alabama. I get you, I know, you know, it's 534 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: it's uh, hey, you know me. I was not a 535 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: huge to a guy last year by any stretch of 536 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: the imagination. I was all Joe Burrow and Herbert. I 537 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: thought they were special. You know. I made a lot 538 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: of statements at Herbert I thought had the higher ceiling 539 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: than Joe Burrow in the draft. In those type of things. 540 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: It's hey, Trevor Lawrence got talent around him too. And Clemson, 541 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: I think when it goes down to it, it's about, Okay, 542 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: you know what was available, what was there to be had? 543 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 1: Did he take advantage of all that was there to 544 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: be had? You've heard me say this before. When there's 545 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: nothing there to be had, what happens? And then? Can 546 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: I see NFL type throws that I think translate, you know, 547 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: from college to the NFL. And that was my you know, 548 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: my hesitation with two of last year. But I saw 549 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: enough just in the little clips I've seen and just 550 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: TV scouting during the year where pockets collapsing. Things aren't perfect, 551 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: and he could still make a high level throw to 552 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: why I went ooh, I like that about him. Yes, 553 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to take into account those type of things, 554 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: the talent around him and all of that, and of 555 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: course Waddle, who was hurt most of the year. Yeah, 556 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: he's gonna be, you know, a top twenty pick, and 557 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: DeVante Smith's gonna be a top twenty pick. Two. Like 558 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: these two receivers he had to play with this year, 559 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 1: I think are better than Jerry Judy and Henry Ruggs. 560 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: I'll just say that right off the bat. So he 561 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: certainly had help. But that's part of evaluating and you 562 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: just got to take, you know, the best of what 563 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: you can and see. Does that translate to NFL football life? 564 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: He's Chris Sims Pro Football Talk Live Mike Florio said yesterday, 565 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 1: doesn't think Deshaun Watson gets traded. I'm not so sure. 566 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: I'm ready to go down that lane yet. I'm not. 567 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: I have I'm pretty good info that Deshaun Watson is 568 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: not afraid to sit out the year. I really do. 569 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: I've heard that from people I really trusted in league circles, 570 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: but also Chris and I want to be fair to Florio. 571 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: You know, he said, Look, they may be saying, hey, 572 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,239 Speaker 1: we're not taking offers while they are taking offers, but 573 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: doesn't it make the most sense for the Texans to 574 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: say what Detroit did with Matthew Stafford or open for 575 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: business because teams are going to start signing up free agents, 576 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna get ready for the draft, and then all 577 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I limit the pool of resources of 578 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: teams that might be giving you a true treasured trove 579 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: for Deshaun Watson. I don't understand, you know, the timing 580 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: of it is curious. I don't either, and I listen, 581 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to, you know, push back on Mike. 582 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: I mean, Mike's got a great feel for the league. 583 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: He knows people everything I know, and this is why 584 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: he said it. And I think he's heard We've heard 585 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: the same things because we've talked about this on our show. 586 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: The Texans aren't They're not open for business. Like I 587 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: know some of these teams that are interested into Shaun 588 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: Watson and they've they've you led me to believe that 589 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: they don't think the Texans are doing anything right now. 590 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: I'm more of what you're saying, I would go, what like, 591 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: let's get Denver and the Carolina Panthers and the Miami Dolphins, 592 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: you know, into a bidding war here so we can 593 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: maximize what we get for DeShawn Watson. Because I again, 594 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: the organization's dysfunctional down there. There's a lot of people 595 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: and players on that team that don't want to be there, 596 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: but they're not DeShawn Watson. He has the support from 597 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: players on his team who have told them like, hey, go, 598 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: we understand you want to get out of here. We 599 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: get it. And it's always dangerous to bring that kind 600 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: of player quarterback back into your locker room, as you know, 601 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: when he's upset or doesn't like being there. You know, 602 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: he's the leader of the team. He's gonna start trash 603 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: and coaches and the owner and the GM and things 604 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: like that, and it's going to embolden the rest of 605 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: the locker room and it's gonna make things more dysfunctional. 606 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: So that's where I think you're you know, to your point, 607 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: I would start opening up business now and start getting 608 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: those conversations going. Yesterday I said I didn't understand what 609 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: the Steelers were doing with Ben Roethlisberger. They're not winning 610 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: a championship another championship with him. You want to bring 611 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: him back farewell tour, that's one thing, But I think 612 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: bringing him back, no matter what the salary is, it 613 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: also will probably hamper you the followings. Now, like right, 614 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: I gotta get started here. You know, can you keep 615 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: Bud Dupree? You got some younger players there. Now's the 616 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: time to win. And you might be the third best 617 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: team in your own division and Ben might be the 618 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 1: fourth best quarterback in his own division. So explain the 619 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: logic of what the Steelers are doing? And am I 620 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: too critical on what they're you know, keeping Ben Roethlisberger? No, 621 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: I think you make all the the right points. Um. 622 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: You know. The one thing I'll say about Big Ben, 623 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: and I do believe he was banged up, you know, 624 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,720 Speaker 1: the second half of the year. His arm is still good. 625 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: It's not great anymore, but he can still hit the 626 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: twenty yard out or the deep post fifty yards down 627 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 1: the field with ease. So there is something there, you know. 628 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: The one thing I'll say, you know to what you're saying, 629 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 1: because you said it, I mean their defense is a 630 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 1: super Bowl defense. I would hope Big Ben, like you 631 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 1: talked about with JJ Watt, would just go, wait, this 632 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: is I want to play because I want to play 633 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,959 Speaker 1: my legacy all of those type of things, and would take, 634 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, a huge salary salary reduction. So maybe they 635 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: can get a bud Dupree back who's coming off an 636 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: ACL tear too where I think that might hurt his 637 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 1: ability to get a big time, you know contract on 638 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: the market, and I think actually favors Pittsburgh to maybe 639 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 1: get him back. But you said it and then here's 640 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: you know, so they're a little stuck in between one. 641 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: Show me the options that are better that they can 642 00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: get right now on their football team. At the quarterback position, 643 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna be in no man's land. I think for 644 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: the most part in the draft, you know, at quarterback, 645 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: at least for the first rounders there, I don't think 646 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: they can do anything. The big thing they have to 647 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 1: do is do their best to keep their defense intact. 648 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: And a little bit of a disservice to Big Ben 649 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: last year anyways, and some of this might have been 650 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: his doing, right, we heard the rumors that he might 651 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 1: have been Your run play was called and he got 652 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: to the pass and all those type of things. But 653 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,839 Speaker 1: they got to get back to balance football. You know, 654 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: one thing I've talked about with them is they became 655 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: predictable within their predictability. And I think I said that 656 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: to you during the year. We knew they were gonna 657 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: throw at every play, and then you're like, and they're 658 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: gonna throw every play five or six yards right here 659 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 1: and right here and right here, and that you know 660 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 1: he's not Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen or that at 661 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: this point of his career. They need to get back 662 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: to run in the ball protect him. And I would think, like, 663 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: look at what Tampa Bay did with Tom Brady. If 664 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: you could run the ball and protect him, he's still 665 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: gonna be able to beat beat defenses with one on 666 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: one matchup and his ability to throw the ball down 667 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,919 Speaker 1: the field. And I think that's probably where they came 668 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 1: to this this situation right now. Good to talk to you, Chris, 669 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: and we look forward to your deep dive into the 670 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacking position, because I will say history's on your side 671 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 1: with picking out who you think will be the most 672 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: successful quarterback. Would you take Herbert over Burrow right now? Yeah? 673 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 1: I would, I definitely, would you know Herbert's Herbert's special 674 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: and of course there's the injury related I love Joe 675 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: Burrow's year. I mean he made a lot of chicken 676 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: salad out of chicken, you know what. But Herbert is 677 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: just big athlete, incredible arm I mean incredible. It's it's 678 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: josh Atlin Mahomes. It might not have the flare and 679 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: everything like that, but his ability to make throws and 680 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: awkward positions are people around him are really good. And yeah, 681 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 1: I think he's a superstar. I really do. Thank you. Chris. 682 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: All right, buddy, be goods out of the guys.

Then he has made more money for 723 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: somebody who's never made an All Star game in the 724 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: history of this sport. His lowest salary of his career 725 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: was his rookie year. He made three point three million. 726 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 1: This year, he's making a lot more than that career 727 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: salary for Mike Connolly, including this season. Hold on, hey, 728 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:35,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go wow, two hundred and seventy three million dollars. 729 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,879 Speaker 1: You're high, But yes I am.

Secondary question, has anyone ever made over two 736 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars in the NBA besides Mike Connelly without 737 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 1: making All Star appearance. We're gonna look into that. Joe Johnson, 738 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure made an All Star team with that star power, 739 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: but has he made two hundred million dollars? Yes? I 740 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: have an interesting article and the best players never to 741 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 1: make an All Star Game, and Conley's a high up 742 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 1: on that list, so we gotta check. There's some guys 743 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 1: who might have gotten paid Jason Terry, Andre Miller, Marcus Camby, 744 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: Shane Battier, Rods Trickland, Sam Perkins. Any of those guys 745 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:33,760 Speaker 1: get it paid well? Not two hundred million dollars. Yeah, Paully. 746 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: Joe Johnson's made six All Star appearances. Take I must 747 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,800 Speaker 1: have missed though, but he hasn't made two hundred million dollars. 748 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 1: Joe Johnson made two twenty god beige cameras for days, Baby, 749 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: Isn't that amazing? Lamar Odom has never made an All 750 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 1: Star game. That surprised me. He's not going to either 751 00:40:55,280 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: you're officially calling her. Yeah, he's not gonna make an 752 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 1: All Star team. Joe Johnson made two hundred and twenty 753 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: million dollars. That's right. Hey, you put up seventeen and nine, 754 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:15,240 Speaker 1: you're going places? Hey? Yeah? How good is Mike Conley? 755 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: I can't I can never tell. Like he's not quite 756 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,919 Speaker 1: a star, is he? No? He was a lottery pick. 757 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: Whn't he picked by Memphis? Yeah? He had a very 758 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: nice career. Yeah, it is having um. But what are 759 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 1: his career numbers? Seventeen and eight? Does that sound abount right? 760 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: Seventeen points, eight assists. That's I got him at fifteen 761 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: and six. Oh, for his career, his best season he 762 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: was here, it's twenty points. But Memphis a couple of 763 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 1: years ago, twenty and six did not make the All 764 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: Star team. Yeah, that was that good Memphis team was 765 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: Zach Randolph and the guys. Yeah, yeah, I'm mclub. By 766 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 1: the way, are you completely over the All Star snubs story? 767 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: You know, I'm glad Devin Booker is making Nobody wants 768 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 1: to play in the All Star Game, but they all 769 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:05,480 Speaker 1: want to be named to the All Star team. Devin Booker, great, 770 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 1: he was an All Star last year? Good? You want 771 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,320 Speaker 1: to put him in this year? Great? With Anthony Davis 772 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: not being able to play him, I'm fine with this. 773 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: Is there any other snub that you know we need 774 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: to be aware of. I still can't believe the Celtics 775 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: being this bad. Got two wall stars with Tatum and 776 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: Jaylen Brown? But those are All Star players, aren't they? 777 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 1: But I think team's success has to factor in a 778 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: little bit here, doesn't it? How many times? Yeah? I 779 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: mean check this because I don't know if a team 780 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:45,760 Speaker 1: under five hundred has ever had two wall Stars before 781 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: the Boston Celtics this year and what happened to the Celtics. 782 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: Don't you look worse if you have two wall Stars 783 00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 1: and you're under five hundred in the East? You think 784 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,960 Speaker 1: that mclovin's been piling on the Utah Jazz. Wait till 785 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: you hear from Nick Wright Fox Sports One.
