78
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 2: you should have this by this age, you should have

79
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: this by this age. That's never been That's never been

80
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 2: my style. Sometimes people's life go different ways, and if

81
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 2: you still complain, you still got eligibility. Look, I've seen

82
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: guys go play minor league baseball, then go to college,

83
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: win the Heisman, win a national championship, right, I mean,

84
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 2: if baseball didn't work out, if I could still go

85
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: back and complete something, you know, what THO was saying goes,

86
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: it's never too late. You see people getting degrees around

87
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 2: grad situation year or graduation time. On the internet, everybody

88
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: posting their cap and gown moments. You see people in

89
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 2: their fifties and sixties that have been going to school

90
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 2: over these.

91
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: Problem with you're going to get your degree.

92
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: I'm fine with that, But if you had eligibility, you

93
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: want to go back and play right now?

94
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: No, because I'm thirty four, that don't matter.

95
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 4: You can still play.

96
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, just because I can do something doesn't mean I

97
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: should do something. I could have drank five beers on

98
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: the way in. I didn't. You know why, because.

99
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: I shouldn't have. Yeah, Yeah, it's all I'm cool with.

100
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: It's more about the team and that guy.

101
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 1: You never know.

102
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 2: He also probably could be lenning some type of older

103
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 2: advice to the young buckaroos on the squad, keeping them

104
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 2: out of trouble. I always need a old g rahod is.

105
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 2: Was it twenty six, twenty six, six twenty six? What

106
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: advice she was getting from a twenty six year old

107
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 2: who's stelling undergrad I gotta know what he did beforehand?

108
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 2: Was this just with a lot of injuries and stuff

109
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 2: that pushed it to twenties six, because that is, you know,

110
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 2: eight years from when the average American starts college fresh

111
00:04:58,720 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 2: out of high school.

112
00:04:59,360 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: You're eighteen.

113
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 2: So there's no way he's been in college for eight years, right,

114
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: that can't that can't be in No.

115
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: He started at Harvard in twenty sixteen, Seth Towns did. Okay,

116
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, seventeen, which Sam sounds about right to be

117
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: twenty six years old.

118
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 5: Now, Finley just said he was out injuried for five years.

119
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 6: So he was out injured for the last five years. Okay,

120
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 6: So keeping that in the mind, like you guys said,

121
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 6: he was the Ivy League Player of the Year all

122
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 6: the way back in twenty eighteen.

123
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 2: Wow, twenty eighteen. He dropped sixteen today too, held the

124
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,040
Speaker 2: squad to the attorney. So if you've been hurt, that's

125
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 2: all I need to know right there. If you've been

126
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 2: hurt for five years, you can't fall to guys.

127
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you've been hurt for a presidential term, maybe

128
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: it's time to go, and so bad just might be

129
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: time to go do something else.

130
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 2: I'm happy for them, man, I really am. Like I said,

131
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 2: so many connections to the university of their man. It's

132
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 2: cool to see them in attorney. They'll get a sixteen.

133
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 2: So we've only seen that happen once where sixteen beat

134
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 2: to one. It's only happened one time, but hopefully they

135
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 2: can pull it off. I'll be pulling for regardless of

136
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 2: who they played. Let's as ontarios. I'll be pulling for

137
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: them as a sixteen and attorney. It would be great

138
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 2: to see them win the game.

139
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: And it'll be interesting to see also too if we

140
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: ever get HBC used to get above a fifteen or

141
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: sixteen seed, because so those are some of the I mean,

142
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: be honest, like Howard basketball verse, I don't know who

143
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 1: is another sixteen sheed that Monmouth.

144
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: Momouth or Southwest Louisiana State, whoever wins like the Sun

145
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: Belt or one of those you know conferences to get

146
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 2: a sixteen. But it'll definitely be like the Mac the Swack. Well, hell,

147
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 2: they'll be at least two HBC who's in because you

148
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 2: get a me act and you get a Swack. So

149
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 2: there's at least going to be two HBCUs at sixteen seeds.

150
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 2: I would love to see if anybody if they've ever

151
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: been ranked higher than that, I know Norfolk State. Where

152
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 2: were they ranked when they knocked off Boise where they

153
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 2: won up at Boise stated they'd be boys to state,

154
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: but they won the tournament game was in Boisse State,

155
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 2: where they're fourteen? PAC checked that for me, man a

156
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: be fan, somebody checked that and see, I think I

157
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: think Norfolk State might have been a fourteen when they

158
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 2: won their first round game up at Boise State, But

159
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 2: other than that, I don't think. I definitely don't think

160
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 2: it's been any higher than fourteen.

161
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: I have a dumb question to ask, and this because

162
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: it's been plaguing. This is a wild turn. But we

163
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: only have a few minutes left in this segment. We'll

164
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: get to the NFL coming up in just a moment here.

165
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: But if you're on a flight together and you get

166
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: upgraded to first class, are you leaving your significant other?

Speaker 1: End coach. I want everybody's opinion on this. No, No,

168
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,040

00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 1: they were drawing and they said, oh, no, Jesus will

284
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,600

285
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: Jesus will save me, and then all of that and

286
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,200

Speaker 2: was ten to fifteen years ago.

308
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: Trust me.

309
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,160

Speaker 2: in them, they're not the arm wrestle thicker. The media

311
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 2: I wasn't what the median in the middle is now thicker.

312
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 2: The seats aren't. And if you're pressed, and if you're

313
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 2: in the front row, your feet are against the wall,

314
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 2: so you don't really get to stick your feet. I

315
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 2: like tucking my feet under the seat in front of me,

316
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 2: but when that wall's there, you don't get that. So

317
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 2: now you got to do the open leg. Now you

318
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 2: got to bump knees with the guy.

319
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: Next to you. Your hips hurt because the seat's tight.

320
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: It's it's not all.

321
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get a little shampicky, but it's cheap. It's

322
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: cheap shampickley. It ain't the good stuff.

323
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 6: If I'm going first class and I'm paying all that money,

324
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 6: I better get a tour of the cockpit.

325
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: That's what I really want. I always wanted to see.

326
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 6: If I'm going that way, they better open that door

327
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 6: for me.

328
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just yeah, not only I got pre checked.

329
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: I will leave you in the security line. If you

330
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: don't upgrade eight you want to stick with your boy

331
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: like me, upgrade your life. You know what I'm saying.

332
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: Come on, I got places to go, with people to see. Baby.

333

Speaker 1: We got things to get done, just like we got

334
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: things to get done. On this here radio show. Coming

335
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: up next, we'll talk about there's been free agency flying

336
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: all over the place, people signing left, right and centerp

337
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: but only one move has really truly had a major

338
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: impact in Vegas in terms of the betting odds. I

339
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: think that might be a little short sighted. Let's get

Speaker 1: and of course you get us at Fox Sports Radio.

372
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: But the thing I was just talking about last segment

373
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: VJA is you know last year I was one of them.

374
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: I fell into this trap. I thought the Atlanta Falcons

375
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: were gonna win the NFC South. Everybody picked everybody in

376
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 1: they Mama is picking the New Orleans Saints. People were

377
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: picking the New Orleans Saints. The same way people were

378
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: picking like the San Francisco forty nine ers to win

379
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: the NFC West or the Kansas City Chiefs to win

380
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: the AFC West. Everybody had the Saints except for a

381
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: handful of people. And I was one of them. And

382
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: I fell into the trap of thinking that Desmond Ritter

383
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: was going to be at least a NFL starting quarterback right.

384
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: That obviously was not the case, and that's why Arthur

385
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: Smith ends up getting fired. By the end of the

386
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: end of the season. There, the Falcons made the biggest

387
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: free agent signing so far signing Kirk Cousins from the

388
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons, and now it seems as if people are

389
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: now saying that this is the quarterback of got Ye,

390
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: the quarterback away that they needed to get. The odds

391
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: shifted from eighteen to one to twelve to one for

392
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: the Falcons to win the NFC, the odds shifted from

393
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: fifty to one to thirty to one to win the

394
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and the odds and now they are minus

395
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: one ten, which means you have to bet one hundred

396
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: and ten dollars to win one hundred to bet for

397
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: the Falcons to win the South. It also impacted the

398
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: Player of the Year odds Offensive player of the Year

399
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: odds with Bijon Robinson moved from forty to one to

400
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: twenty five to one. Drake London moved from one hundred

401
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: and fifty one to seventy five and one. But the

402
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: thing that I don't understand here is we just saw

403
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: Kirk cousin terre's achilles tendon and he's thirty four years old.

404
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: Now people are acting as if this is just a

405
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: guarantee that he's gonna be able to come back and

406
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: be healthy and be impactful, mind you, Kirk Cousins, at

407
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: his healthiest has won a total of one oh and

408
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: e one playoff game. I just don't see what everybody

409
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: else seems to be seeing here.

410
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 2: I think what people see is a few things. They

411
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 2: have added some other weapons. Now I didn't like the

412
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 2: weapons when the deal was first made. Now I like

413
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 2: the weapons. You add Moony and you add more, all right,

414
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: so I like that. I think more as a receiver

415
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 2: who runs really good routes, he's got good hands, I'm

416
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 2: not sure what was going on if his head's not

417
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 2: in it. Sometimes it just takes a player a few

418
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 2: years to get it and lock in that. You're a

419
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 2: pro athlete. You play in the.

420
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: National Football League.

421
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: You must act like it, prepare like its sleep, eat

422
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: and drink like a twenty four to seven. Sometimes it

423
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 2: takes guys a little longer to get there. I think

424
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 2: More is going to be a that could get that.

425
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 2: I like Drake from USC and I like Pits. Now

426
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 2: this allows Pitts, I think, to be a little more

427
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 2: than what people expected him to be.

428
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a one receiver. I don't even

429
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: think he's a one B.

430
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 2: He could be a really good hybrid tight end, which

431
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: is what he should be, which is what he was

432
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: at Florida Bijon. Kurt's gonna be able to turn and

433
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 2: hand the ball to a young stud just under a

434
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: thousand yards last year. I think that definitely goes to

435
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 2: at least eleven to twelve hundred this year because of

436
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 2: the threat of Kurt being to throw the ball. Well,

437
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 2: you have a quarterback that a defense does not respect.

438
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 2: It just locks everything down. It tightens everything on offense,

439
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 2: It makes everything harder. Kurt coming in, I think is

440
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 2: gonna make a lot of things a lot easier and

441
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 2: some other things just a little easier. But if it's

442
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 2: easier then harder. I'll take that any day of the week.

443
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: Then also, they look at this defense and Rohee Morris.

444
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 2: Morris has been a head coach in the league before.

445
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 2: He knows what he's doing. This isn't new to him.

446
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,360
Speaker 2: Nothing he sees is gonna surprise him.

447
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: This year. He'll be locked in.

448
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,719
Speaker 2: This is also one of the better defenses in the

449
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 2: top half of the NFL. They had one of the

450
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 2: best safeties in football, and they got some young pieces there.

451
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 2: And we still have the draft now as far as

452
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 2: the achilles is concerned. I agree with people who think,

453
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,439
Speaker 2: hey man, this is an achilles. This guy's just gonna

454
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 2: come back and just and be the same Kurt. As

455
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 2: long as he can plan and throw, he's fine. Kurt

456
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 2: doesn't run a lot. He's a real shifty quarterback, Remasima

457
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:23,719
Speaker 2: Marino in the pocket.

458
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: He slides. He's not gonna run like Eli Manning.

459
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 2: They were sliders, Philip rivers, sliders guys that don't take

460
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 2: off and run. So his achilles isn't gonna stop him

461
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 2: from running when he's ready to play.

462
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 1: I think he'll be okay. It'll take him some time

463
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: when he gets back.

464
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 2: I like this move like everybody else does, because this

465
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,439
Speaker 2: division right now, it's pretty much them in Tampa.

466
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: I was a guy that had the Saints last year.

467
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: Though the Saints will win.

468
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 2: They were in until Week eighteen and then they won

469
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 2: their last game, but then somebody else won and to

470
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 2: knocked them out of the playoffs.

471
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: So it was a close pick. And they were the

472
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: Falcons of seven and ten.

473
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 2: So you think Kurt is at least worth two to

474
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: three games that gets you to ten and seven to

475
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 2: win this division. But I like this move also. I

476
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 2: think it'll take some time with the Achilles, but I

477
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 2: think Kurt will be right.

478
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: I just I can't escape. I cannot the lead out

479
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: of my mind. Week three, Vikings Chargers, Brandon Stally runs

480
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 1: full back trap on fourth and one on his own

481
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: twenty four yard line, and somehow Kirk Cousins throws a

482
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: game ceiling interception and the Chargers escape with the win.

483
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: I remember thinking at the time, it was like, how

484
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: in the world did the Chargers win this game? And

485
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: the reason why they won the game is Kirk Cousins

486
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: melted down and with the it was on the plate,

487
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 1: it was right there on the platform. It's like, that's

488
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: at healthy Kirk Cousins. Three weeks into the season. The

489
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: guy just tours achilles tendon. Then he's thirty four. I

490
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: just don't I don't like, all right, maybe you want

491
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: to take a shot on Aaron Rodgers and tore his

492
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: Achilles said in the same era, who was significantly older. Well,

493
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: at least at Aaron's peak, he was winning MVP awards.

494
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins again has won exactly one OHNE playoff game

495
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: in his Minnesota career.

496
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 2: He was playing great when he got hurt, though, when

497
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 2: he got hurt. The Vikings started out slow as a team.

498
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 2: Let's just make sure remember that they started out slow

499
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 2: as an entire team, and it really shocked people. People

500
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 2: are really surprised how bad they started. They turned that

501
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 2: thing around and he was playing almost as better than

502
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,640
Speaker 2: any quarterback in the league. When he got hurt. They

503
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 2: were on a run. I mean, he was eighteen and five,

504
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,919
Speaker 2: so he had some interceptions, all a lot of quarterbacks do,

505
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: but he was turning it around justin Jefferson was getting going,

506
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,239
Speaker 2: Hockinson was getting going, and then he gets hurt. So,

507
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 2: like I said, I think he'll be fine. It'll take

508
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: him some time to get back. Medicine is different. He's

509
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 2: thirty four to thirty four is different than forty. That's

510
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 2: a six year difference, definitely football years on your body.

511
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 2: I think it'll take him some time to get back

512
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: and get going. But once he's cleared medically, I don't

513
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 2: see I don't see any hold up. Like I said,

514
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 2: you're gonna turn in hand to Bejon a lot this year.

515
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 2: Bijon three hundred carries. He's got to have anywhere between

516
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 2: two seventy to three hundred carries this year.

517
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: He's got young legs.

518
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 2: He's on a rookie deal, and he's a beast catching

519
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 2: the ball out of the backfield too, Rod Bejean, and

520
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 2: let Kirk get going. Let the play actually start to

521
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 2: open up with some of these new weapons. Like I said,

522
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 2: I like Atlanta could be sneaky good this year. That time,

523
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 2: that team that comes out of nowhere this year wins

524
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 2: in ten eleven games and can take that division or

525
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 2: at least battle to Bucks for I think the Bucks

526
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 2: are still right there for it too.

527
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 1: It was fourth and five, Week three, with forty two

528
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: seconds left. The completely healthy Kirk Cousins, who by all accounts,

529
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: according to the person to my left, was playing some

530
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,880
Speaker 1: of his best ball right to go, owing three. There

531
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,360
Speaker 1: was fourth and five, forty two seconds left. He completes

532
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: a first down to the six yard line instead of

533
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: spiking the ball the Vikings ran to play with when

534
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: they little ran thirty seconds off the clock in the

535
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: fourth quarter of a game and then threw the ball

536
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: to Hockinson ended up being tipball interception game over. Vikings

537
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: start out owing three. Yeah, they started owing three, and

538
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: then they went four to one in their next five

539
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: and then the season prior the New York Giants are

540
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, that Minnesota team that had won thirteen Somemi games,

541
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: four teams of my games, and all types of crazy

542
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: things that happen in order for that to occur. You

543
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 1: may remember Kirk Cousins checking it down in a one

544
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: possession game, well fourth down at like fourth and twelve. Like,

545
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: I just don't I don't know what everybody else is

546
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: seeing here, but I do know that Brian Finley is

547
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: seeing everything in the world of sports right now. So

548
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 1: go ahead and tell us what's trend in my friend Martin.

549
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 6: I love that segue, by the way, And yeah, let's

550
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 6: take a look at what's happening in college basketball right now,

551
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 6: and yeah, there we go. So with the Big twelve

552
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,920
Speaker 6: Championship is going on right now in college hoops, IOWA

553
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 6: staying in Houston, just underway, the Cyclones are leading nine

554
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 6: to six just about seven minutes into the first half.

555
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 6: There there's another conference championship final happening currently San Diego,

556
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 6: State of New Mexico battling it out for the Mountain

557
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 6: West Championship, and it's sixteen to eight Lobos. They just

558
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 6: hit that under twelve minute timeout. There is the American

559
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 6: Athletic Conference semifinals. Florida Atlantic is ahead twenty six to

560
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 6: fourteen against Temple Under five minutes ago in the first half.

561
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 6: Of course, Florida Atlantic went all the way to the

562
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 6: final four last year, and the winner of that game

563
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 6: is going to take on not UCF in University of

564
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 6: South Florida, but they will go toe to toe with

565
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 6: UAB after their ninety three to eighty three win in

566
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:22,080

567
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 6: their tournament is concerned, we saw a major upset in

568
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:30,000

00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 6: to seventy five, the number one seed in the tournament

570
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 6: in Purdue. So that means Wisconsin is going to face

571
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 6: off against thirteenth rank to Illinois ninety eight to eighty

572
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,080

00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 6: And that's Howard radio.

586
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,520

Speaker 1: Thanks B Finn. You know I used to play this

599
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: just to play this drinking game in college where we

600
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: would have to try to guess the mascot of all

601
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: the teams in March Madness, and uh, I would have

602
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: got cat I would have got Catamounts from Vermont. There's

603
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 1: there's a little ton out there though that you're like, wait,

604
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: like New Mexico Lobos right, Like you know what I'm saying,

605
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 1: especially as you watch the conference championships head and so

606
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: if you have some free time you want to have fun,

607
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:28,479
Speaker 1: there you go.

608
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,479
Speaker 2: The catamouse is one of the funnest college nicknames I've

609
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 2: ever heard. And I remember the first time I heard

610
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 2: it the year they knocked off Syracuse. If you guys

611
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 2: remember that when they knocked off Syracuse in the first

612
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 2: round and the Vermont cata like catamouse.

613
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: What the hell is a catamout? But I've always liked

614
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 1: this is that.

615
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's a cool nickname, the Catamounts. And they're

616
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 2: the only team I've ever heard of that nickname. They're

617
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 2: not the Tigers, you know, just like fifty of those.

618
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 1: Wow, you want to feel old. They just flashed Jamal

619
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: mass Burn Junior's name across the screen. Oh wow.

620
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 2: His dad was a mid range pull up magician and

621
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 2: the first NBA games I went to was watching Jamal Mashburn,

622
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 2: Baron Davis and Jamal mcglore is the new Orleans Horney. Ooh, mcglure,

623
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 2: you came to build the Canadian Yeah, he was a bet.

624
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 1: He was a monster too.

625
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 2: Those teams, man, you wonder watch some of these teams

626
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 2: just could never get over the hunt when it had started,

627
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 2: Like the old Charlotte Hornet teams with Kendall Gill and

628
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 2: Grandma Man, Larry Johnson and David Wynate, Dale Curry and

629
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 2: Lonzo Morning.

630
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,239
Speaker 1: They could never win with all that talent. Crazy. So,

631
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: speaking of college, there would be approximate, well another there

632
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: will be seven rounds and approximately thirty two picks in

633
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: each of them, and those kids will come out of

634
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: college and live their NFL dreams shortly thereafter. But Joel

635
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: Klatt from Fox Sports wrote this article, Actually this was

636
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks. My bad, Hold up, my bad, Bucky. Bucky

637
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: wrote this article talking about the hit rates of quarterbacks,

638
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: And obviously it is a big topic of conversation today

639
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,919
Speaker 1: as you sit there and look at the quarterbacks that

640
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 1: are up there, right, and really since two thy and

641
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: eleven when the CBA was rewritten so that the rookie

642
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: salaries are pretty much on a slate, guys have taken

643
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: more and more risks. Right, We used to have guys

644
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 1: who started over like forty Some college games generally be

645
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: you know, the general place in which we were trying

646
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: to look at. Right, So like, for example, Peyton Manning

647
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: had forty five starts, Donavia McNabb had forty nine starts,

648
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer forty four starts, Philip Rivers fifty one starts

649
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: in college. Right now, we're moving to a different kind

650
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: of era, right where since the like the hit rates

651
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: about the same, right, about forty percent between nineteen ninety

652
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: eight and twenty ten, and then from twenty eleven to

653
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Right, that's eight out of twenty from

654
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: the first section, ten out of twenty five from the

655
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: next episode, just about forty percent. But the odds are

656
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: selecting a star are significantly lower when drafting an inexperienced player. Now,

657
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 1: if you have left than two twenty starts, the list

658
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: of stars on that list, Cam Newton had fourteen, Kyler

659
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: Murray had seventeen, Patrick Mahomes had twenty nine, Joe Burrow

660
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: twenty eight, Josh Allen twenty six. Now there's a couple

661
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: guys who had of thirty plus starts. Andrew Luck qualifies

662
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: as a star there, even though he retired earlier than

663
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: he thought. And then you got to kind of just

664
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: a couple of I would say, at their peaks, higher

665
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: level guys in the league, right with the exception of one,

666
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: and I'll let you pick who the one is. But

667
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: RG three had forty, Mariota had forty one, Jared Goff

668
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: thirty seven, Baker Mayfield forty six, Daniel Jones thirty six,

669
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: that's the one, Justin Herbert forty two, and Trevor Lawrence

670
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: had thirty six. They all led their original teams to

671
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: the postseason as the starting quarterback, like we just talked about,

672
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: and Daniel Jones actually won a game, Thank you, Kirk Cousins.

673
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: But it lets you think, right because now with the

674
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: crop of guys who are coming up now, Jaydon Daniels

675
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: had fifty five starts, Caleb Williams thirty three, Drake May

676
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 1: and JJ McCarthy had twenty six and twenty eight respectively.

677
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: So I just thought it was an interesting kind of

678
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: thing to bring up because Drake May and JJ McCarthy

679
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: are pretty much unexperienced at the Kyle's game. When you

680
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: compare them to everybody else unexperienced of the college game, well,

681
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: when you could, Jay and Daniels had fifty five starts,

682
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: Cayleb Williams thirty three, you know, and then Drake May

683
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 1: twenty six, JJ McCarthy twenty eight. When you consider the

684
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: hit rate some of these other guys, like I just

685
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: I ran off all the numbers just a minute ago,

686
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: that would be I mean, the only stars, I should

687
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: say the only stars, but the standouts that had entered

688
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: in the league with fewer the twenty starts are Mahomes, Burrow,

689
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 1: and Josh Allen. And I think you look at those guys,

690
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: especially Mahomes and Josh Allen, there's a lot of their

691
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: physical traits that got them started earlier in their careers.

692
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: Right now, I'm not saying they obviously you can't read

693
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: defense and so on and so forth, but it was

694
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: when they were rookies and first, second year or third

695
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: year players. It was a lot about what they're able

696
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: to do physically, Mahomes extending plays, alan running the ball.

697
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 2: So Burrow had twenty eight, correct, Is that what you

698
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 2: said with Burrow? Burr had twenty eight starts, all right?

699
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 2: So that's tide what JJ started and Josh Allen had

700
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 2: twenty six?

701
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: Ye right, all right? So as was hurts? I did?

702
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: Did I hear hurts? No? Okay, I was.

703
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 2: I wondered because I know he played two years at Bama.

704
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 2: Did he had the one year old Oklahoma two? I

705
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 2: was writing other quarterbacks down as you're reading these stats off.

706
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 2: I think this is just situation to situation, Like you

707
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 2: have Jayden Days with fifty five starts, Okay, But if

708
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 2: he gets to the league and he ends up being

709
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 2: average and not very good, and he ends up being

710
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 2: traded within three to four years, then those fifty five

711
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: starts mean absolutely what I would question, like, okay, you

712
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: have fifty five starts, did.

713
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: He top out while he was at college?

714
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 2: I might like my guy between twenty six to thirty

715
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 2: five thirty seven starts, because I know when he gets

716
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 2: to the league he still probably could be shown some stuff.

717
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 2: That's not saying Jayden denils can't. But that's a lot

718
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: of college that you've played and you transferred. I believe

719
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 2: he played a fifth year if I'm not mistaken. But

720
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 2: this to me is almost like it depends on where

721
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 2: they go and who they and they who they get

722
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 2: is they're coaching their program in their system. I like

723
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 2: twenty six to about thirty five, because I know, okay,

724
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 2: you had some you had some success in college, but

725
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 2: we're gonna grow you here like we've seen Josh Allen

726
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 2: have to grow, We've seen Burrow had to grow.

727
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 1: Did you read it was justin Herbert on that list?

728
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: I was wondering.

729
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 2: I wrote his name down to to see how many

730
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 2: starts that Herbert had at Oregon. Forty two starts. So yeah,

731
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 2: that's that's good, right there. Forty two and Herbert. But

732
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 2: I've heard some not many, but there's some people that

733
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 2: think Herbert might have topped out. There's been Leacho has

734
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 2: been a guy that was on Herbert's ass all year long,

735
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 2: and he had.

736
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: Forty two starts in college.

737
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 2: But every week you cut on, you log on the Twitter,

738
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 2: and a chos in front of his TV will holding

739
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 2: the nine patch showing you something this guy can't do

740
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 2: or didn't do. So I think this is situation to situation.

741
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 2: But if I'm a head coach, I'm a GM, I'm

742
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 2: looking at QB. I like twenty six to about thirty five,

743
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 2: thirty six starts.

744
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 8: Guys, a, we have some breaking news. Let's go to

745
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 8: Brian Finley on this one. Ben take it away, man, guys.

746
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 6: So we know Russell Wilson is going to be a

747
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 6: Chicago Bear, but his road to being QB one you

748
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 6: mean a Pittsburgh Steelers Yeah right, yeah, Russell Wilson at

749
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 6: Pittsburgh Steelers. But his road to being QB one is

750
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 6: going to be muddied because of a guy who's getting

751
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 6: traded from the Bears to the Steelers. This according to

752
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 6: Ian Rappaport of NFL Network, Justin Fields is going to

753
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 6: the Steelers. He has a home, a new QB throwing

754
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 6: into the fold there. So you've got Russell Wilson. Justin

755
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 6: Fields now has a place and now a big opening

756
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 6: at the QB spot in Chicago.

757
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: Well that opening will be filled with the number one

758
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: overall pick as you would imagine. Now, but that is uh,

759
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: you know, thank goodness because I was one of like,

760
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: what is happening with Dustin Fields? Where is he going?

761
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: Finally you finally have an answer as to where he's going.

762
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: Do we know what the compensation was for that?

763
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 3: Brian?

764
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 6: We don't know yet, but this basically said, according to

765
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 6: you know, Rapaport sources say, so, I'm sure more he

766
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 6: gonna get out. But interesting that Ian Rappaport was the

767
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 6: first to get this, not Adam Schefter.

768
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:11,800
Speaker 1: So you know, here comes Adam Schefter just just tweeted

769
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: it is going to be a fourth round pick based

770
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 1: on play touts. Okame, sorry, a twenty twenty five sixth

771
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,320
Speaker 1: round pick that turns into a fourth round pick based

772
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: on playtime. So depending on how much time he gets

773
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 1: on the field, that's going to be very interesting. We

774
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: will be back with that coming up next on Fox

Speaker 1: for you and a friend, brought to you by graduate

784
00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 1: Hotels where college fans stay. And if you're fan of

785
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: college football, you remember this vividly. It was Trevor Lawrence

786
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: and Justin Fields. Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence, Who's better

787
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 1: who's the bett like all of that, It was all

788
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: big deal. They ended up meeting when Ohio's they played

789
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: Clemson in the College football playoffs. But now Justin Fields,

790
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: formerly of the Chicago Bears, reportedly traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers,

791
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: and we got the confirmation from several different people on Twitter.

792
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 1: Whoever was first, congratulations to you, but you're all saying

793
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 1: the same thing. The trade condition update says that the

794
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five six round pick that the Steelers traded

795
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: to the Bears for Justin Fields will become a fourth

796
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: round pick if he plays in fifty one percent of

797
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: the plays this season. So I think the obvious question

798
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: is while we have five minutes left to Desever, we'll

799
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: get back to this topic a more holistic rate in

800
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 1: a minute, but I do want to ask you VJ,

801
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 1: what will this pick end up being.

802
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 2: That's weird, man, because if they feel like they don't

803
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: want to give up that fourth pig, they could always

804
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 2: hold them out. I mean, we've seen franchises asks the

805
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 2: quarterback that's there now to waive something you know in

806
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 2: this contract, an injury clause Russell, so they didn't have

807
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 2: to pay I mean, so that that is a man

808
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 2: that's muddy waters. For me, I'm fifty to fifty on this.

809
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 2: I wanted Justin FIL's the stay in Chicago and them

810
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 2: to work through it going to Pittsburgh. I still have

811
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 2: questions there about Pittsburgh and now you have him and

812
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 2: you have Russell Wilson there. I just think this is

813
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 2: this can turn out to be a big cluster, you

814
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 2: know what, because there's gonna be you're splitting the fan

815
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 2: base automatically. There's gonna be people that want Justin Inn.

816
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:39,719
Speaker 2: There's gonna be people that want to go with the

817
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 2: veteran in Russ. This can also do damage in the

818
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 2: locker room if Justin was gonna get out of there.

819
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: There's some other teams I mentioned when we filled in

820
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: last night.

821
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 2: This was not one of them because I just feel

822
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 2: like with Russ there, that you're putting that type of

823
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,239
Speaker 2: personality with a young kid that obviously you want to mold,

824
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 2: you want to do some things with. I don't think

825
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 2: Russe is gonna behave I don't think Russe is gonna

826
00:36:59,080 --> 00:36:59,760
Speaker 2: be on his best paper.

827
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: He is who he is, and he's gonna be who

828
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 1: he is.

829
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 2: I don't think that's gonna change Tomlin the Steeler mistique.

830
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 2: Don't think none of that's gonna change Russell Wilson. So

831
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:09,399
Speaker 2: I'm fifty to fifty on this. I got I got

832
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 2: a mole on this one. For a night man. This

833
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 2: is kind of I'm kind of shaking my hand, Mark, like,

834
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 2: I get you wanted out of Chicago Collins or Chicago

835
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,479
Speaker 2: got rid of so they could take Caleb. All right, cool,

836
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 2: do that. But the Pittsburgh Steelers that I got.

837
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 1: Questions about, well, the question is who's who's going to

838
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: be the starting quarterback of the team? Like that, to

839
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 1: me is the only question there. And then they're like, okay,

840
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: Rush doesn't play ball, then see you later. You can

841
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 1: get cut. It don't cost me nothing. Like I can't

842
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 1: imagine that Russe will be outwardly angry about this. I

843
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: know one thing, if I was Kenny Pickett's agent, I

844
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,919
Speaker 1: have to have a conversation Pal, because I don't think

845
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 1: this move gets made if Kenny Pickett is still on

846
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:51,280
Speaker 1: the roster. And what this move tells me is that

847
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 1: it was evident from day one signing Russell Wilson that

848
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 1: he may have gotten first crack at at OTA's with

849
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 1: the ones, but he was far from solidified locked in

850
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: with the ones. And this is a competition Kenny Pickett

851
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: might have been able to win. Who you have starting

852
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: opening day for the Picks purs tailors. I mean, it's

853
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: hard to call it right now, but I just have

854
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 1: to think that Justin Fields is a better quarterback than

855
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson right now. Okay, Justin Fields is better, But

856
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: I just say Justin Fields is a better football player

857
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: than Russell Wilson. Like, is he gonna be able to

858
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: make all the reads old and so forth. We'll see

859
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: how it all plays out. But I mean, he's younger.

860
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 1: He's more expensive, sure, but he's younger, more athletic, and

861
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at the seasons that he's

862
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: had in Chicago, some of them were you know, they

863
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 1: didn't want to play his freshman, his rookie year, they

864
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: started Andy Dalton. Andy Dalton got hurt, they forced him

865
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 1: into the lineup. Wasn't positive. That second year, they trade

866
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: ro Kwan Smith. They're tanking in year two. Year three,

867
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 1: he gets hurt, Tyson Bagen goes to it. They get

868
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: off to an ugly start to the season. Tyson Baja

869
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:56,959
Speaker 1: comes in, goes too and two and then Justin Field

870
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: played good football down the stretch. I just yeah, So

871
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: I think Justin Fields eventually this will be a fourth

872
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: thron pick because Justin Fields will play more than half

873
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: the step.

874
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 2: So if Justin Fields his name is started, let's say

875
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 2: by preseason week three, do you then cut Russ and

876
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 2: then backup quarterback? So you don't cut so you think

877
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 2: he'll take. You think he'll he'll be okay with that role.

878
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 2: He'll he'll behave himself. What the hell do okay? Like,

879
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,240
Speaker 2: what else is he gonna do? Ask for another trade?

880
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 1: Like the league already told you that they don't want

881
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: you essentially, right, Like we added the conversation yesterday about

882
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: the exploratory talks with the Giants. Yeah, those exploratory talks

883
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 1: started and stopped in the same day. Like it was

884
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: very much not real, right, So that's what it's just

885
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 1: the league already told you what what your market is,

886
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 1: what your value is, and this is time to be

887
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 1: a rec not a reclamation project, so to speak, but

888
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: the time to re uh refurbish your image in the league.

889
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: If reimage, imagine Alan Lee, who is a fills in

890
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:00,800
Speaker 1: on works over here for sports radio him and I

891
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: were talking the other day just about this exact scenario.

892
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 2: He asked me about this, could it be? You know,

893
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 2: would you like that if you got traded there? And

894
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,280
Speaker 2: I remember telling the other day, I just think you create,

895
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 2: You create more than you need to if you were

896
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 2: to bring Justify. If that was the case, then you

897
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 2: should have just kept picket and this still made the

898
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 2: trade and not signed Russ.

899
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: I just think that this can go.

900
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 3: Why.

901
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: That's why if I'm Kenny Pickett, I'm looking at my

902
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 1: age of sideways because if you had just sat there

903
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 1: and wanted to compete, I think you would had a

904
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: shot to win the job. Yeah, because obviously they are

905
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: not locked down on Russell Wilson being the started quarterback.

906
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: Otherwise they wouldn't have made this move. We'll break down

907
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: more of this trade from all sides coming up next

908
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio Martin Weiss VJ Husky, Yes and

909
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: live from the tire rack dot Com studios. Tire rack

910
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: dot Com. What hope you get there? It was an

911
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 1: unmatched election, fast free shipping field as a protection over

912
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: ten thousand recommending this dollars tire rack dot Com. So

913
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,399
Speaker 1: what tire buying should be and like that intro said

914
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: it was the breaking news. Well we're covering it as

915
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: look the man with the voice said it, all right,

916
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: what else am I supposed to do? Justin Fields, the

917
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,959
Speaker 1: newest member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, traded for a conditional pick.

918
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: It'll either be a sixth rounder or it has the

919
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 1: potential to go all the way up to the fourth rounder.

920
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: The contingency is if Justin Fields plays over fifty one

921
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:29,280
Speaker 1: percent of the of the plays of the Fifthburgh Stealers season,

922
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: it will go to a four. Right now, it is

923
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: a six, and I imagine there's probably a contingency be

924
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: plays you twenty five moves to a five or something

925
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 1: along those lines. As the news comes out, we will

926
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 1: have more of it. But here's the real interesting thing here.

927
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: Any team that decided to decided to acquire Justin Fields,

928
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: they have to make a decision because his fifth year

929
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,799
Speaker 1: option is either going to be exercised or not, and

930
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: that's in May. It'll be twenty five million dollars. So

931
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 1: let's say they exercise the option for the fifth year

932
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: lock him up for another season, So it would be

933
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 1: taken from potentially a one year deal to a two

934
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 1: year deal, and now your quarterback room will cost twenty

935
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: six point two million dollars. Sounds like a good deal

936
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: to me, not bad. It sounds like a good deal

937
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: to me. And you're getting two guys who started games

938
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: in the NFL last year, Like who I should say

939
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,839
Speaker 1: like this, two guys who walked in Week one and

940
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:29,320
Speaker 1: were the team starters last year. Because obviously Mason Rudolph

941
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: and Mitchell Trubisky also started games last year. But that

942
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 1: is not exactly what we're talking about here. We're talking

943
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 1: about Justin Fields and Russell Wilson.

944
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, his base salary is one point six million for

945
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 2: next season, and I think they'll go ahead and pick

946
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,240
Speaker 2: up that option. I don't think they make this trade

947
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 2: as a one year thing. I think they somebody there

948
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 2: thinks they can use this kid and work with them

949
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 2: and build them up. You already get with some better

950
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 2: weapons that he had in Chicago. I like the running

951
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,839
Speaker 2: game here. I just still think that the offensive line

952
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 2: still needs some work. I worry about TJ. Watt on

953
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,439
Speaker 2: the injury. On the injury front, it's been twice now,

954
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 2: and it's great. Even though he's dominant when he plays

955
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 2: Meek and Fitzpatrick also on that back end. But you know,

956
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 2: if anybody can do this, I guess it's Mike Tomlin, right,

957
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:12,720
Speaker 2: If anybody can take a guy Mike Tomlins always stringing together.

958
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: They played three different quarterbacks last year. If I'm not mistaken,

959
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: Mike is string it together. If he's the opener, if

960
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 1: he's the starter going in, I think they go ahead

961
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: and get that extension. They that they picked that fifth

962
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: year up.

963
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised if they see what they like

964
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 2: in the offseason, and they see what they like through

965
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 2: training camp, and he by preseason week three is named

966
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 2: the starter. They may try to finagle some other contracts

967
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 2: or restructure some things to give him an extension instead

968
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 2: of just picking up the fifth year option. If they

969
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 2: feel that strong about him, well we'll have to see

970
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,759
Speaker 2: down the road. But like I said, this one, I

971
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 2: got a marinate on a little more. I wanted to

972
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 2: see a few other teams go after him and get him.

973
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 2: I thought he might fit better on But Mike Tomlin

974
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 2: the saving grace and me saying, all right, I'm cool

975
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 2: with it for today, but I still want to dive

976
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:56,720
Speaker 2: into a little deeper.

977
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well it happened. Now we're on the air now,

978
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 1: so I guess we're gonna have to talk about it now.

979
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: So again, what do you got? What you what else?

980
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 1: How do you do you think?

981
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 2: So you think he's the starter, but you don't think

982
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 2: Russell gets cut? That's something I would like to go to.

983
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 2: I think if he's the undoubtable starter, you're only paying

984
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 2: Russell the league vetman, right, So I mean there's other

985
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 2: quarterbacks that will get cut during preseason that I can see.

986
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 2: I just don't think having these two guys there is productive.

987
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 2: I really, I really don't. Russ wants to be a starter.

988
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: So if he doesn't become the starter, you know, then

989
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 1: you then cut let him go, then cut him.

990
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 2: And bring in and sign another quarterback to back up.

991
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 2: Before the season starts. They're gonna take four quarterbacks in

992
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 2: the camp, so they don't have other qbs there. I

993
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:45,360
Speaker 2: just think if Fiels is the starter opening day, you

994
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 2: can't have Russell there?

995
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: Why not? I just think it just creates, It creates

996
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:53,240
Speaker 1: more negativity than needs to be I think it creates

997
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: if he's your guy justin field, his confidence has already

998
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,760
Speaker 1: been shook in his shot in Chicago, So now in Pittsburgh.

999
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 1: I I'm gonna give Tomlin and the coaching staff and

1000
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 1: that franchise a lot of credit. I don't think they

1001
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 1: would look at it like, yeah, we'll keep Russ. No,

1002
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 1: we tried it. It ain't cost us nothing. We tried

1003
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: it out for this short period of time. We'll cut

1004
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: him and let him go. We don't want this kid

1005
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: looking over He's got his confidence met to get his

1006
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: comments back. We don't want this kid looking over his shoulder.

1007
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 1: We don't need no division in the locker room. The

1008
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks aren't gonna be as good as Justin.

1009
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 2: But there's people who still hold out hope for us

1010
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:25,800
Speaker 2: that Russ can get it done.

1011
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 1: I've been hearing it all week long. There are people

1012
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 1: who really think he could be a starter and be

1013
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,320
Speaker 1: a productive quarterback. Go ahead, Patrick.

1014
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 8: So, like with the whole with this move, now with Pittsburgh,

1015
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 8: I mean, it's hard to kind of see where it

1016
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 8: could go. I personally from what I was hearing on

1017
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 8: how the league was viewing fields. I mean, with there's

1018
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 8: been so many things in the last what seven ten days? Yes,

1019
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 8: but what I was hearing as he was starting to

1020
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 8: kind of get, you know, drying up on his trade market.

1021
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 8: They were saying that all these teams were viewing him

1022
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,920
Speaker 8: as pretty much at this point a backup. And this

1023
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 8: is before Howell went to Seattle or Kenny went to

1024
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,000
Speaker 8: Philly and all the good stuff. So everybody's like, oh,

1025
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 8: they're seeing him as a backup to you know, whoever's here.

1026
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 8: And and then now what Now he went to Pittsburgh.

1027
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 4: Now you got Russ.

1028
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 8: Honestly, the way I just have a feeling and knowing

1029
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 8: what I know about Russ being a Seahawk fan and

1030
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 8: seeing him, you know, just whatever Broncos was, uh, I

1031
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 8: honestly think Russell Wilson's probably gonna start I think fields

1032
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 8: for at least one year this year or unless they

1033
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 8: just you know, let him out.

1034
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 1: So the reports from yesterday were that that Russell Wilson

1035
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 1: was gonna get first cracked. That was that was the

1036
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: sticky point. Why Canny pick a demand or you know,

1037
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 1: the trade right? So I imagine that remains the same.

1038
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, right, I think it's Russ is going to be

1039
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 8: the starter. And I'm not saying he's gonna be the

1040
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 8: started for the whole season. If if he's at least productive,

1041
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,879
Speaker 8: keeps him afloat and you know, working it, he'll he'll

1042
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 8: get there.

1043
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 4: He'll he'll be there.

1044
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 8: If he you know, catastrophic meltdown or just anything close

1045
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 8: to what happened with his Broncos tenure at least year one,

1046
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 8: then yeah, you take a shot at Fields. But the

1047
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 8: thing about Fields is you're gonna have him for this

1048
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 8: year and probably the next year after that. So maybe

1049
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 8: it's a let them let him, let him kind of

1050
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 8: you know, calm down for a second, see the system.

1051
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,359
Speaker 8: See if they guy with them, let Russ do his thing.

1052
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 8: If Russ is good, keep them and then you go

1053
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 8: from there. Well that's not to your point.

1054
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:12,880
Speaker 1: Though, that that justin Fields.

1055
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 2: And I heard certain the same reports you did, some

1056
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 2: of the stuff like her that people don't view him

1057
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 2: as a starter.

1058
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: I heard exactly. I heard the exact same thing about

1059
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Yeah, did you see what I'm saying? So

1060
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying, Like it's we heard, we heard,

1061
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 1: we heard about the same thing about both guys. There.

1062
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:31,479
Speaker 2: There's this Giants meeting, right that was no one talked

1063
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 2: to Russ, no one looked at Russ, and that teams

1064
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 2: that need quarterback there are teams that need a quarterback

1065
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 2: right now. There's a team that paid him thirty seven

1066
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 2: million that took eighty five million dollar hit to say bye, like,

1067
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,840
Speaker 2: we don't want you, bro, and nobody else in the

1068
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 2: league won at you.

1069
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:46,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, you see what I'm saying.

1070
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 2: I'm not I would love to get more out of

1071
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh out of what really went down with Okay, so

1072
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 2: Pickett one at the said, albu, I'm willing to compete.

1073
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: They signed Russ. He's gonna get first nights. Okay, now

1074
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:56,360
Speaker 1: trade me.

1075
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 2: But then you bring in Justin Filds, who most people

1076
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,439
Speaker 2: would look at it and go, okay, I mean, pound

1077
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 2: for pound, I probably would start Justin over over Russ

1078
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 2: if you start. If you start Russ first, you've shaken

1079
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 2: this kid's confidence even more.

1080
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: I Brooke Prior from ESPN is reporting that Russell Wilson

1081
00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: and she covers the Steelers, Russell Wilson will start and

1082
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,760
Speaker 1: Justin Fields will back them up. Per her team source.

1083
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 8: Okay, it's like like with the Seahawks are saying with

1084
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:24,360
Speaker 8: Gino or the Sam Howel Gino thing. Like John Schneider,

1085
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:27,439
Speaker 8: who's the GM for the Seahawks, said it's Gino's job,

1086
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 8: and then you know, whether we believe that or not,

1087
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 8: we'll see as as it goes.

1088
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 1: I don't like that. In March, though, if I'm the coach,

1089
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:35,360
Speaker 1: If I'm the coach, they're gonna compete.

1090
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 2: That's gonna be this. That's gonna be my answer for

1091
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 2: the to the media.

1092
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,719
Speaker 1: We're in March. Don't start naming starters now.

1093
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,120
Speaker 2: We have no idea how this is gonna shake out

1094
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,560
Speaker 2: through the off season and through preseason. Right now, they're competing.

1095
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 2: I would believe if I'm Seattle, I would say the

1096
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 2: same thing. It's true, and we brought him in to compete.

1097
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:51,839
Speaker 1: For the job.

1098
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,040
Speaker 8: I mean, at one point, Sandle brought in Matt Flynn

1099
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:56,959
Speaker 8: on a however, you know, a mega contract, and.

1100
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 2: Then the Packer and then you know, one game really

1101
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 2: yeah one game? Yeah, well one game, okay, one game.

1102
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 8: But and then you know, they draft a third round

1103
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 8: rookie by the name of said Russell Wilson. And then

1104
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 8: what happened in training camp to you know, all of

1105
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,919
Speaker 8: a sudden, he clearly he bet he clearly beat him out.

1106
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 8: That can and of course, you know that's always a possibility.

1107
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 8: I think there it's it's very much too early to

1108
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 8: say whether this guy is a starter. And that's just

1109
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 8: not just Pittsburgh. That's you know, with Seattle's doing and

1110
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 8: maybe even Arizona. I doubt it, but who knows. Like

1111
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,400
Speaker 8: it's too early, we're still in March. But in the opportunity,

1112
00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 8: let's just say Justin Field's chip on his shoulder looks

1113
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 8: a cut above and you know, just you know, plays

1114
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 8: his hard out there you go, then you got it.

1115
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 8: And you know, Russ one year for I think he

1116
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 8: was ten mil I think is what they're giving him.

1117
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 8: That's still Pittsburgh.

1118
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,479
Speaker 1: I think, oh, he's getting one.

1119
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 8: He's getting he's getting I mean, either way, you're not

1120
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 8: taking a gamble with him, and it's he's he's you know,

1121
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 8: older and all stuff like you're not really it's like, oh,

1122
00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 8: Justin Field's beat him out, all right, cool, Like just

1123
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:01,359
Speaker 8: move on from him, or you know, du I.

1124
00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:03,839
Speaker 2: Think Justin I think Justin Fields could beat him out.

1125
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 2: He's in a better situation in Chicago. Even though I

1126
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:08,600
Speaker 2: still have questions about Pittsburgh's line, it's not as bad

1127
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,400
Speaker 2: as Chicago's line. He's got nause to turn a handleball

1128
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,440
Speaker 2: to fire muth at the titles, got a couple of receivings,

1129
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,440
Speaker 2: they got some, they got some guys. It's a different

1130
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 2: it's different than what he was dealing with in Chicago.

1131
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 8: Well, it's also different coaching stuff, different stable front office,

1132
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 8: stable ownership stuff, that that stuff.

1133
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:25,240
Speaker 1: That stuff matters.

1134
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,400
Speaker 2: Well, they didn't have a quarterback though they have a

1135
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 2: quarterback now you put justin and.

1136
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:30,799
Speaker 1: They until the rest of the NFL they don't have one.

1137
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 1: They don't have one now.

1138
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 8: I mean they got pickings. Who will see it. But

1139
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 8: they did trade Deontay John. I mean, if they draft

1140
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 8: a really good like young wide receiver or something in

1141
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 8: the draft and kind of address that, then maybe we'll

1142
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:43,879
Speaker 8: be cooking with They need a number one it's true

1143
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 8: number one guy for for their off field picks.

1144
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 2: I just I'm trying to figure out what he because

1145
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 2: some Sundays he looks unguardable and then some sundays he

1146
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:52,719
Speaker 2: doesn't even want to run block.

1147
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 8: But then he also does the whole, the whole, he

1148
00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:57,240
Speaker 8: gives up. He plays off exactly.

1149
00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 2: He checks out any any NFL player check out, bro,

1150
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 2: I'm all, I'm I'm out on cause you get somebody

1151
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 2: hurt that way checking out and football can get a teammate.

1152
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 4: Hurt's true.

1153
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Wilson, Now that's that's I mean, Steelers went

1154
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,920
Speaker 1: for Kenny Picktt, Mitchell Trubisky, and Mason Rudolph to Russell

1155
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:15,880
Speaker 1: Wilson and Justin Fields. And I can't think of a

1156
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: more diametrically opposed quarterback room from year to year, especially

1157
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:22,960
Speaker 1: when you think of some of the politics and Mason Rudolph.

1158
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:28,799
Speaker 1: But anyway, uh, anyway, Miles Garrett, I imagine that I

1159
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,840
Speaker 1: know that there's they told Russell he's gonna get first

1160
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 1: crack and he'll be the you know, first starter. But

1161
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 1: I think that this is going to be Justin Field's

1162
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 1: team in short order. Especially, I don't think Russell Wilson

1163
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:44,200
Speaker 1: has it anymore, and gladly Justin Fields does, right, Like,

1164
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 1: I think that's just where to kind of where it

1165
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 1: boils down to. But this is also a lesson and

1166
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:51,879
Speaker 1: reading the tea leaves from all these insiders and all

1167
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: these people who are breaking rumors and so on, because

1168
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm old enough to remember when Justin Fields was gonna

1169
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 1: get traded for a first rump pick. Also really quick too,

1170
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield, right, he goes to Cleveland. Yeah, historically bad

1171
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,800
Speaker 1: revolving door to coaching, and if people are ready to

1172
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,279
Speaker 1: write this guy off, not a lot of what it

1173
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 1: had one good year when it won eleven games. Goes

1174
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:11,120
Speaker 1: to Carolina.

1175
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:13,239
Speaker 2: We know that that looks like, get to reset with

1176
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,800
Speaker 2: the Rams, stable front office, stable head coach, stable offense,

1177
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 2: you know, ownership. And then goes to Tampa, good offensive coordinator,

1178
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:24,799
Speaker 2: weapons around him, all pro receiver, and he earns himself

1179
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 2: another and now people are like, hey, yeah, big people

1180
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:30,239
Speaker 2: were selling Baker Mayfield just two years ago that he

1181
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 2: can't should be in the league, he can't be a

1182
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 2: starting quarterback, that that could be just it's a better franchise.

1183
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,239
Speaker 2: That's why I feel comfortable he's gonna be the starter.

1184
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,840
Speaker 2: This is a better franchise for him. Also to what

1185
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 2: Russell telling him he could get first snaps or putting

1186
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,279
Speaker 2: that out there, I think that's stroking Russell's ego a

1187
00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 2: little bit, to keep you calm at first when you

1188
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 2: first get here, because like I said, it's gonna turn up, guys.

1189
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:53,280
Speaker 1: It always has. But he just had his introductory press conference.

1190
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 2: But you just said, yeah, exactly, and we all agree,

1191
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,239
Speaker 2: and we all agree it's it's script talk.

1192
00:52:58,560 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 1: We all agree.

1193
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,800
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson does talk. Yeah, you say all the good stuff,

1194
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 2: but this has been what you're doing.

1195
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 1: But the circles around you bro tell a different story.

1196
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 1: This is two franchises. Now, this is a group a

1197
00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 1: bunch of people.

1198
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:11,160
Speaker 2: Players you've played with, men you've gone to battle with,

1199
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,279
Speaker 2: have spoken like, yeah, man, this dude he fake man.

1200
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 2: This guy's a prima donna, this guy's a diva. The

1201
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:18,319
Speaker 2: guys you go in the battle with have said it.

1202
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,560
Speaker 2: So there's gotta be some truth there at It's not

1203
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,719
Speaker 2: one guy. It's a handful of bunch of guys. The

1204
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 2: people in the media that around him and stuff have

1205
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 2: put this stuff out there. I'm just I'm just saying,

1206
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 2: if Justin Fields the starter you gotta move on for

1207
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 2: you can't have him there.

1208
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 1: Why he's one hundred, he's one point two million dollars,

1209
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,080
Speaker 1: and that's why it's gone thing. It's one thing if

1210
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: he is gonna cost you thirty eight million dollars on

1211
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 1: dead cap because he has some level of leverage. Nobody

1212
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 1: wanted Russell Wilson, the fact of the matter, Like, oh,

1213
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I shouldn't say nobody one team wanted Russell Wilson. Right,

1214
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 1: that's it, because if there was anybody else, he wouldn't

1215
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,320
Speaker 1: be making the league minimum. He's making the league minimum

1216
00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 1: because one team wanted them. That's not the most humbling

1217
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 1: experience that a football player are held, anybody can experience.

1218
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 1: When you think you have the open market available to you,

1219
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 1: you think you have options all left, right and center,

1220
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 1: and no, no, no, no, no. Not only you don't have options,

1221
00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:15,440
Speaker 1: you gotta work for minimum wage. Now, that's what minimum

1222
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,439
Speaker 1: wage prior to getting whatever he signed with the DEBV.

1223
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:20,759
Speaker 1: I forgot the actual contract. But when they trade the

1224
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 1: entire I mean they traded two players and all types

1225
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:26,920
Speaker 1: of picks. I think it was four or five different

1226
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 1: picks and no offense Andrew Locke to Seattle to get

1227
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:32,840
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Yeah, you're walking in there with a little

1228
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 1: bit of a different cachet, walking in there with a

1229
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: little bit of different vibes. Right. But now you if

1230
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 1: you if you can't be a good soldier here, you

1231
00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: might as well retire because their career is going to

1232
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 1: be over. I think that might be the next step

1233
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: for him.

1234
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,439
Speaker 2: I can't imagine. I just don't see him changing. Man, Guys,

1235
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 2: I mean you know, like the quote we use, I said,

1236
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:56,959
Speaker 2: when somebody shows you who they are, believe them, guys.

1237
00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,440
Speaker 2: Russell Russell was showing us who he is, and I

1238
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 2: don't understand. This is hard to understand and believe.

1239
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 1: Like it's just hard to understand and believe, because any

1240
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 1: quarterback that you sign, save it being a rookie, is

1241
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:10,640
Speaker 1: going to cost more than Russell Wilson will as a

1242
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:14,600
Speaker 1: backup for seventeen weeks. Yeah, I'm not just not web

1243
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: Jason thinking I'll stick with that and we'll see time

1244
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 1: will play out. But if Justin Fields is a starter,

1245
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,399
Speaker 1: I don't keep Russell around. This kid's confidence was shot

1246
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:24,800
Speaker 1: in Chicago. You want them on a different tone. You

1247
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,520
Speaker 1: want them on a different confidence level being your quarterback

1248
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 1: moving forward, like you said, Patrick, at least for the

1249
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:31,440
Speaker 1: next two years and see how it turns out. You

1250
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,919
Speaker 1: don't want Russell, you don't want that cloud hanging hanging

1251
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 1: over your locker. Run, but you do want a backup

1252
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 1: quarterback though they'll find dig get this backups. You can

1253
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 1: get back to where everywhere you can get back up,

1254
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 1: every team getting one for one point two million. I

1255
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:44,600
Speaker 1: don't know about the money part, Mart, I'm not worried

1256
00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 1: about that. I'm just worried about the fact that you

1257
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 1: won't you don't keep Russell Wilson. You can stick on

1258
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: the money part. I'm not gonna stick on that. If

1259
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 1: you have the defension football, which the Pittsburgh Steelers do,

1260
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,120
Speaker 1: that's where you spend your money. If you can get

1261
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,839
Speaker 1: your quarterback room to be twenty six million dollars, that's

1262
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,799
Speaker 1: pretty dog gone good. Anybody else is gonna cost more.

1263
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 2: Chemistry means more than money, man At sometimes sometimes certain

1264
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:08,840
Speaker 2: franchises and certain positions, chemistry means more than money. You

1265
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 2: got to pay five or six extra million for your

1266
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 2: quarterback room to make sure the chemistry is cool. I

1267
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 2: think a smart franchise like the Stealers would do something

1268
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,480
Speaker 2: like that. Are there no, We'll save that money and

1269
00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:21,080
Speaker 2: have this controversy in his black cloud at the quarterbacks

1270
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 2: hanging over our franchise that we're trying to get back

1271
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:24,520
Speaker 2: into the playoffs.

1272
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:27,640
Speaker 1: That's a perceived black cloud that I don't okay, I

1273
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 1: just don't understand where it's coming from. Like, but I

1274
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:34,799
Speaker 1: guess whatever coming up next, we'll talk about which free

1275
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 1: agents are still available. And honestly, this one guy, I

1276
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,360
Speaker 1: think is actually a difference maker. He might play on

1277
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: the tag, but if another team lands him, it's a

1278
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,760
Speaker 1: big deal. Just like in basketball, successful game plan starts

1279
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 1: with the right players the team attractor supply brings hustling heart.

1280
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 1: That's what really sets them apart. So lash up your

1281
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 1: sneakers and make the winning play. But heading to your

1282
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:55,120

1293
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: a friend, brought to you by Graduate Hotels where the

1294
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:27,440
Speaker 1: college fans stay. The news of the day. Russell Wilson

1295
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 1: and Justin Fields in the same quarterback room, two former starters,

1296
00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: one in the AFC one in the NFC. Well, now

1297
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,360
Speaker 1: both of them will be playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers

1298
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 1: this upcoming season. We'll see who wins the quarterback battle.

1299
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,000
Speaker 1: All reports right now say Russell Wilson is in the lead,

1300
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 1: but obviously it is March sixteenth, and a lot will

1301
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,840
Speaker 1: happen between now and Week one of the NFL season,

1302
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:55,840
Speaker 1: so we will see what ends up being the result there.

1303
00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:01,360
Speaker 1: But there is an interesting moment right now with the

1304
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 1: franchise tag in terms of Kansas City. They placed a

1305
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: nineteen point eight million dollar franchise tag on Lagerius Snead,

1306
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:13,080
Speaker 1: and from all accounts, it kind of felt like at

1307
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 1: the time that this was a tag in trade scenario.

1308
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:19,000
Speaker 1: But if that's the case, another team is going to

1309
00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:22,560
Speaker 1: have to pay him a big time contract extension. Lagerius

1310
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 1: Snead last year allowed a fifty five point nine passer

1311
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,560
Speaker 1: rating against held wide receivers to nine point seven yards

1312
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,720
Speaker 1: a catch and was a massive difference maker in the

1313
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 1: Kansas City secondary and up to me, honestly, he and

1314
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 1: the other cornerback on the other side whose name I

1315
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,920
Speaker 1: can't believe I'm blanking all right now, chiefs other McDuffie,

1316
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 1: McDuffie Trent McDuffie out of Washington. Those two guys, along

1317
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 1: with Cook the safety really allow Steve Spagnola to do

1318
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 1: a lot of the crazy exotic blitzes that he likes

1319
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 1: to call up. Especially also helps when you have the

1320
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 1: best defensive tackle in the game, Chris Jones. But he

1321
00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 1: is a major key for Kansas City, and I think

1322
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:03,200
Speaker 1: without him they're gonna be not necessarily in trouble, but

1323
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:06,160
Speaker 1: I think that honestly could have more, almost more of

1324
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,520
Speaker 1: an impact than even losing a guy like Tyreek Hill,

1325
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 1: because as good as Chris Jones is, he's not gonna

1326
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 1: be running down the field twenty yards trying to defend

1327
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 1: wide receivers who are running four four to four to

1328
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 1: five speed.

1329
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you got a good corner, it helps Chris

1330
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 2: Jones because you don't have to you don't have to

1331
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 2: cover long. You know what I'm saying that it helped

1332
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 2: the quarterbacks got to hold the ball because guys can't

1333
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,240
Speaker 2: get away from guys couldn't get off of him a

1334
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 2: trick McDuffie all last year and that's where they were

1335
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:32,040
Speaker 2: able to hold teams to low scoring games and even

1336
00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:34,760
Speaker 2: my Dolphins. Seven points is a seven sid points. All

1337
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:36,919
Speaker 2: they could come up with, all be it in the cold,

1338
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,280
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. You couldn't get off coverage and beat the corners.

1339
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,920
Speaker 2: It allows a guy like Chris Jones to do his thing.

1340
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,560
Speaker 2: This is interesting because I feel like that they may

1341
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:49,240
Speaker 2: be talking to someone made, possibly about a trick. We've

1342
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,920
Speaker 2: seen Kansas City. The only person they feel like they

1343
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 2: got to hold on to is one to five. I

1344
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,760
Speaker 2: think there might be a day if Kelsey don't walk

1345
00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 2: out the door as a retired chief and he wants

1346
00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:00,640
Speaker 2: to hold on and still play in the glow days,

1347
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 2: there might be a day they might look at Kelsey

1348
01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 2: and say, okay, look it's been a good run. They

1349
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 2: don't hold on the guys they took the most dangerous

1350
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 2: weapon and football is a receiver, and said, all right,

1351
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 2: we want a championship with you, but we're gonna do

1352
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 2: some other things. You want big money, we don't want

1353
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 2: to give it to you. We gotta give it to

1354
01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:15,160
Speaker 2: some other people.

1355
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 1: Bye bye.

1356
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 2: And I feel like this could be it also too

1357
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:19,680
Speaker 2: with steed Er. He plays on a Franchi's like no

1358
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 2: player likes playing on the Franchi. That's like he's not

1359
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:24,480
Speaker 2: pleased with this. No NFL player wants to be franchised.

1360
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 2: They want their guaranteed deal. They're guaranteed money, even if

1361
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:30,280
Speaker 2: it is nineteen million dollars this year. So I mean

1362
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 2: teams that would want him and can afford them. I

1363
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 2: got to know who's got the cap space and who's

1364
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:36,760
Speaker 2: got the space, you know, to be able to give

1365
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 2: him the extension because just tradeing for him on a franchise

1366
01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:40,760
Speaker 2: that can give them one year deal, that's not gonna

1367
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 2: do it.

1368
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,600
Speaker 1: So interesting to see where this goes. I don't think

1369
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 1: he plays on this deal.

1370
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 2: He's either trader or maybe they try to figure out

1371
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,360
Speaker 2: how to get a deal done someway if they restructure

1372
01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:50,840
Speaker 2: some other deals or way to the post June first

1373
01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 2: VET cuts.

1374
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 1: Well, I do think he'll play on the tag because

1375
01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:57,080
Speaker 1: he'll make more money in a single game than he

1376
01:00:57,120 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 1: has pretty much in his entire NFL career on the

1377
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,520
Speaker 1: franchise tag. So I do think he will play for

1378
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 1: Kansas City. Now, will he be there you know, day

1379
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:07,960
Speaker 1: one of OTAs, I don't know about that, but I

1380
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 1: don't think we're looking at another Chris Jones scenario here

1381
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 1: where holding out well holding out to the point where

1382
01:01:13,920 --> 01:01:16,080
Speaker 1: should he. I mean, don't get me wrong, I will

1383
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 1: not hold any aspersions against lugerious Need if he decides

1384
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 1: he wants to go ahead and hold out. Get your money, son, Like,

1385
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 1: don't don't let me get in the way. I do

1386
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 1: the same thing if I was in your position. But

1387
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 1: I imagine week one he will be lined up guarding

1388
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,320
Speaker 1: across from a wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs.

1389
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 1: I think that's the way that there's likely ends. And

1390
01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:36,720
Speaker 1: who knows, maybe he's able to get a deal from them,

1391
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 1: even though they are paying Mahomes and Kelsey and Jones.

1392
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 1: Maybe there's one more spot on the slot. But that's

1393
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:44,960
Speaker 1: another That's the reason why part of the reason why

1394
01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:47,800
Speaker 1: I imagine the Chiefs haven't been too active in free

1395
01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 1: agency so far. I don't sign how Brown for a

1396
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: seven million dollars deal that can roll up to I

1397
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 1: think eleven with incentives. But you know, the part of

1398
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: the thing is they've done a really good job drafting

1399
01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 1: drafted Sneed, drafted mcduffee draft. I mean, basically the entire

1400
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:04,480
Speaker 1: defensive backfield for the Kansasity Chiefs is guys that they

1401
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:08,280
Speaker 1: picked up in the last three or four years through

1402
01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:10,440
Speaker 1: the draft, and you're gonna have to pay some of

1403
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: those guys to be able to maintain what they would

1404
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,760
Speaker 1: like to be a three peat. But let's go to

1405

1431
01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 6: of the regular season, and that sourcing that Fields would

1432

1459
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:10,440
Speaker 6: three to sixty six against Mississippi State, that one in

1460
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,600
Speaker 6: the books, as well as Florida winning over to Texas

1461
01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:17,160
Speaker 6: A and M ninety five to ninety UAB is in

1462
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 6: the American Athletic Championship Game. Who they will play, Well,

1463
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,040
Speaker 6: we're still trying to figure that out because it's Temple

1464
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 6: and Florida Atlantic ut our nine minutes to play from

1465
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 6: Fort Worth fifty seven to fifty Temples favor in that

1466
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:33,880
Speaker 6: second semifinal out of the AAC. Lots more to mention

1467
01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 6: VJ and Martin, but I'll get it back to you.

1468
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:39,520
Speaker 6: And let's not forget there's a huge upset in the

1469
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:44,200
Speaker 6: IVY League where Brown wins against Princeton in the semi final.

1470
01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:47,440
Speaker 6: So now you've got Brown taking on Yale in tomorrow's

1471
01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 6: IVY League final.

1472
01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 1: VJ. Husky Martin wis all yours, You know, Brian, the

1473
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 1: IVY League needs to be more than a one bid league.

1474
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:57,880
Speaker 6: With Princeton not making the final, it makes all the

1475
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:00,040
Speaker 6: sense in the world that they should be in considering

1476
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 6: their record and who they've played.

1477
01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:03,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the they to me should be into

1478
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 1: the tournament. And I feel like this happens consistently with

1479
01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 1: the IVY League, where you'll end up with a really

1480
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,959
Speaker 1: good team and sometimes they win a championship, sometimes they don't.

1481
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:15,240
Speaker 1: And I know that you know, but I mean, because

1482
01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:16,960
Speaker 1: you know Harvard with Tommy Amicker for so many of

1483
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:19,080
Speaker 1: those years, that was a really good team. He's not

1484
01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:20,480
Speaker 1: telling me they were an only good team in the

1485
01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:23,560
Speaker 1: IVY League. Like the IVY League probably deserves to get

1486
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 1: more than one team in in general. But Martin and

1487
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:28,440
Speaker 1: b there coming to your live from the Tirack dot

1488
01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:30,760
Speaker 1: Com studios. If you want to get at us on Twitter,

1489
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 1: you can. I'm Matt Martin Weiss at Big Vanilla Funny

1490
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:35,960
Speaker 1: and you can go ahead and chime in. And I

1491
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 1: asked this question earlier today. Emmett the Blind Seahawks fan

1492
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:43,040
Speaker 1: time chimed in, would you leave your significant other end

1493
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 1: coach if you got an upgrade to first class? Right?

1494
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,360
Speaker 1: And he said, I'm torn about this flight conversation because

1495
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,000
Speaker 1: if I get that free upgrade, I'm taking it. But

1496
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:54,840
Speaker 1: if the person I was flying with left me for

1497
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 1: first class and stuck me in the bump seats, I'd

1498
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:59,520
Speaker 1: be annoyed. Well, emittt, part of the problem is you

1499
01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:02,360
Speaker 1: bought the That's part of the problem. You wouldn't be

1500
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:04,840
Speaker 1: in the bumps heats if you bought two first class tickets.

1501
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 1: That's the point. That's the whole point.

1502
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 2: Well, and then I ain't mad at you, bro, But

1503
01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:12,760
Speaker 2: I mean if they asked you, if they asked you,

1504
01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:14,960
Speaker 2: if your girl went up and got it and she

1505
01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:16,800
Speaker 2: came back and said, babe, check this.

1506
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,880
Speaker 1: They gave us a first class upgrade. But it's just one.

1507
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:22,919
Speaker 2: Would you if she takes it and goes to the back,

1508
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 2: I mean, goes to the first class that sends you

1509
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 2: to the back. It's like, I mean, bro, that's kind

1510
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 2: of that's kind of how it goes. The ladies get

1511
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:29,840
Speaker 2: kind of get the choice.

1512
01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 1: Bro. I don't know if you'd be too annoyed, man,

1513
01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:34,080
Speaker 1: but I feel you on that. Man.

1514
01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:37,040
Speaker 2: That's why you always have to go check yourself. Say, babe,

1515
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:38,720
Speaker 2: sit right here, be the man. Stay up a babe,

1516
01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:40,439
Speaker 2: sit right here and relax, put your feet up. I'm

1517
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:41,760
Speaker 2: gonna go check it, see if I can get us

1518
01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:43,960
Speaker 2: an upgrade. And then that way you can be the

1519
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,600
Speaker 2: decision maker. But if the girl goes and she comes back,

1520
01:07:46,760 --> 01:07:48,160
Speaker 2: she's probably taking it.

1521
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,560
Speaker 1: I also, maybe this is just me, but I also

1522
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 1: refuse to pay uh like first things like seat selection,

1523
01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:58,480
Speaker 1: like I take the risk. Flying's crazy. Now, man, I'll

1524
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,400
Speaker 1: tell you that I'm not. I'm not the I'm not

1525
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,439
Speaker 1: checking the bag, I'm not paying for a seat. Man.

1526
01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:05,120
Speaker 1: I will get on this bad boy like it is

1527
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:08,240
Speaker 1: the Greyhound, okay, and we will figure it out. Old

1528
01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 1: enough to remember where you got meals on the flight

1529
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 1: and they were included.

1530
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 2: I'm not old. You got a meal, you didn't have

1531
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:17,120
Speaker 2: to pay for it. And the one is sandwich pre wrapped.

1532
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:19,880
Speaker 2: You got a meal. It's crazy nowadays, man.

1533
01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:21,600
Speaker 1: Well, last time I flew on it, last time I

1534
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 1: ate on an airline, I had food poisoning for the

1535
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 1: next forty eight hours. Oh wow, what they like to

1536
01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:27,360
Speaker 1: take food on now?

1537
01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:29,880
Speaker 2: From if you buy it within the airport, you can

1538
01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 2: now take food on the plane. So I've walked on

1539
01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:36,200
Speaker 2: with Panda Express orange chicken and eggros and sat and

1540
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 2: ate right in front of everybody.

1541
01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was the only problem was I would have

1542
01:08:39,720 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 1: done that, but it was a ten hour flight. So

1543
01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 1: by the time, you know, I was hungry again.

1544
01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:49,040
Speaker 2: Ask for some more of those those delicious pretzels and peanuts.

1545
01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:51,040
Speaker 1: Can they still get peanuts? Sure?

1546
01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:53,960
Speaker 2: Okay, so I don't know, maybe not, butyoud say, last

1547
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 2: three frights. She goes, oh, we only have pretzels I'm like, damn, y'all.

1548
01:08:57,439 --> 01:09:00,479
Speaker 2: Y'all took the peanuts out. No peanuts, that's right. They

1549
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 2: get rid of the peanuts.

1550
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:03,960
Speaker 1: And there's like the cookies on the delta flights. But

1551
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 1: that's it. You know, there's pretzels and they coming a

1552
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 1: little delta back, don't they little delta pack the bis

1553
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:12,200
Speaker 1: golf cookies. Oh no, I'm good. I'm old and old

1554
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:15,640
Speaker 1: people cookies and old people with coffee cookies. I'm not

1555
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 1: gonna speak.

1556
01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 8: No.

1557
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 1: I can see where they took the peanuts out because

1558
01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 1: when I got to high school in Michigan, there was

1559
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:25,640
Speaker 1: a big no peanut excuse me, no peanut mandate, in

1560
01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 1: part because of the way that there was some few

1561
01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:31,439
Speaker 1: kids with peanut allergiesies. Yeah, peanut allergies are are much

1562
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:34,519
Speaker 1: more prevalent, I imagine than pretzel allergies, don't They are

1563
01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:39,680
Speaker 1: allergic to both. My kids are allergic to peanuts. I

1564
01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:41,519
Speaker 1: thought you were gonna say they're alerts to pretzels. Oh no,

1565
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,759
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even know. You even know they're both allergic

1566
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:49,439
Speaker 1: the nuts though, But no so lugerious Steed, it is

1567
01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:51,400
Speaker 1: still up in the air. I think it ultimately ends

1568
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 1: with him being a Kansas City chief next season, and

1569
01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:56,200
Speaker 1: then we'll put him in line for a pretty big

1570
01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,439
Speaker 1: payday on the back end. But again, when you're a

1571
01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:00,439
Speaker 1: guy who was a late round draft, you're going to

1572
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 1: make nineteen million dollars in one year, be paid over

1573
01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 1: a million dollars a game when you were probably making

1574
01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: two million per season. Yeah, that that is it. That

1575
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:11,400
Speaker 1: is it. You know. If that's the tag, the tag me,

1576
01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:15,719
Speaker 1: I'll take the tag. I'll do it. Another interesting free agent,

1577
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:20,959
Speaker 1: Justin Simmons. Mike Silver yesterday, columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle.

1578
01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:23,600
Speaker 1: He said that Justine Simmons was a target for the

1579
01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:26,400
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers, potentially and moving Hu Funga

1580
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,760
Speaker 1: to the bench. But I think this is probably I know,

1581
01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:33,839
Speaker 1: the safety market is depressed, or however you want to pronounce,

1582
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,160
Speaker 1: however you want to put on it. The safeties are

1583
01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:41,760
Speaker 1: not necessarily signing flying off the off the free agent landscape.

1584
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,599
Speaker 1: But I think Justine Simmons is a massive impact player

1585
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,160
Speaker 1: and a really good one, especially when you consider who

1586
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:49,599
Speaker 1: you know. Kareem Jackson was the other safety on other

1587
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,080
Speaker 1: side that whole time in Denver last season, and he

1588
01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 1: ended up missing what eight games due to suspension, nine

1589
01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 1: games due to suspension just from hitting people the wrong way,

1590
01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,400
Speaker 1: and Justin Simmons was able to hold it down. Yeah,

1591
01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:04,800
Speaker 1: Justin Simmons is the top free agent. I think that's

1592
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,080
Speaker 1: still available.

1593
01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:08,519
Speaker 2: But it makes me wonder does anybody want to pay

1594
01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:11,599
Speaker 2: them because this isn't a it's not a production thing,

1595
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:12,960
Speaker 2: it's not a health thing.

1596
01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:13,559
Speaker 1: It's like this.

1597
01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:16,240
Speaker 2: This guy is a former All Pro, gave eight years

1598
01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 2: to the Broncos. So maybe it's asking price may be high.

1599
01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:22,760
Speaker 2: Once again, maybe teams are still just maneuvering money, restructure

1600
01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:25,280
Speaker 2: some contract works. So though gms are always working, I

1601
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,320
Speaker 2: never get two worked up at this part of the calendar.

1602
01:11:27,640 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 2: Free agent week is fun, but I know that there's

1603
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,080
Speaker 2: gms working, there's teams, there's there's contracts.

1604
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,519
Speaker 1: They're looking at what's an incomplete picture too, because we

1605
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 1: are pre draft, yes, exactly.

1606
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:39,240
Speaker 2: So that's why even with la Jerry Sneath, it would

1607
01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:41,960
Speaker 2: be just hard for me to see him play on

1608
01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:45,400
Speaker 2: the franchise this year risking getting hurt. I know players

1609
01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:47,120
Speaker 2: will do it if they have to, but then we

1610
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,559
Speaker 2: normally see sometimes those players end up leaving because their

1611
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 2: thing is, hey, you didn't want to pay me.

1612
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:52,880
Speaker 1: We just had it in Miami, we just had it.

1613
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,519
Speaker 2: Happened to the Dolphins, Christian Wilks playing on a franchise

1614
01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:57,080
Speaker 2: tag once and then it was like we weren't going

1615
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,200
Speaker 2: to franchise them again, and they made it known they

1616
01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:01,560
Speaker 2: weren't going to franchise again, and he left. So it

1617
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,519
Speaker 2: happens with really good players. Well, with Justin Simmons, this

1618
01:12:04,680 --> 01:12:07,200
Speaker 2: is this is weird that he's still out there. Especially

1619
01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 2: teams that are they feel like you're right on the

1620
01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:13,280
Speaker 2: cusp of competing with either the Chiefs or in the NFC.

1621
01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,559
Speaker 2: Let's just pick the Diners, right. The Niners have been,

1622
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:18,080
Speaker 2: you know, very good the last few years. They've been

1623
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:19,759
Speaker 2: the team that's been baland they've been to two Super

1624
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:21,720
Speaker 2: Bowls in the last four or five years.

1625
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:22,559
Speaker 1: So we'll say the Niners.

1626
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:24,559
Speaker 2: So if you feel like you're right there to compete

1627
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 2: with one of these teams, you work a deal, you

1628
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:30,120
Speaker 2: make something happen, You restructure some contracts, you restructure some deals.

1629
01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:33,439
Speaker 2: Gms are always working. Like I said, it's so early

1630
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:36,840
Speaker 2: right now, and there's still another cut to come, some

1631
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,360
Speaker 2: more money to be freed up. It's still really early.

1632
01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 2: To try to figure out what these teams are gonna do.

1633
01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:43,640
Speaker 2: And then Draft Day there's always trades being made and

1634
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,040
Speaker 2: stuff like that. He will land somewhere, and I think

1635
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 2: it'll be with a contenter. I don't think he's gonna

1636
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:51,240
Speaker 2: go sign with a bottom dweller team for money. I

1637
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:52,920
Speaker 2: think he probably wants to be a contenter. Been in

1638
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,320
Speaker 2: the league eight years going into year nine. I think

1639
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:58,240
Speaker 2: he probably wants to jump on the contended team. So

1640
01:12:58,280 --> 01:12:59,960
Speaker 2: interesting to see what happens with Justin Simmons.

1641
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:04,760
Speaker 1: So I'm saying reports from Pittsburgh Jerry Duloc, who's all

1642
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:08,559
Speaker 1: over this, uh, all over the Kenny Pickett News yesterday.

1643
01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 1: He says that Russell Wilson and Steelers aim to sign

1644
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:15,800
Speaker 1: an extension after the twenty twenty four season. And uh,

1645
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 1: you know, basically that info came out because they want

1646
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:22,120
Speaker 1: people to know they rot. Justin Fields is entering camp

1647
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:27,040
Speaker 1: into as a backup. So that's that's what that is.

1648
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:30,080
Speaker 1: That's basically what that means. Right, That's that's But again,

1649
01:13:30,560 --> 01:13:33,920
Speaker 1: it is March sixteenth. This news just broke an hour

1650
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 1: and a half ago, or not even an hour a

1651
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:38,160
Speaker 1: half ago, half an hour ago, and so we will

1652
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:42,000
Speaker 1: see how it plays out, because I just I can't

1653
01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:44,719
Speaker 1: imagine that Russell Wilson is going to start all seventeen

1654
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:45,479
Speaker 1: games for the pitch.

1655
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,920
Speaker 2: Person Another quick named the thought that too, Chase Young.

1656
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:49,680
Speaker 2: I know he wanted to be winding dining. There's some

1657
01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 2: stories people I know close to him, him being from

1658
01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:53,800
Speaker 2: the DC area. But here's another free agent outside if

1659
01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:56,600
Speaker 2: there are too that can really bolster your defense and

1660
01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 2: bolster team.

1661
01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:59,960
Speaker 1: He's another guy that's still out there. Yeah, you talk

1662
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:03,519
Speaker 1: about guys who don't give full effort on the football field, Well.

1663
01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 2: There's one of them. And he didn't like Dan like

1664
01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:07,240
Speaker 2: being close to him, He like being watching team. Once

1665
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:09,799
Speaker 2: he got to San Francisco, it looked like everything was cured.

1666
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 2: He and he did. He played great up until you know,

1667
01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:13,920
Speaker 2: when they need him the.

1668
01:14:14,240 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 1: Lions playoff game. He was kind of loafing on the tape, but.

1669
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,600
Speaker 2: As I said, until they really needed him towards the

1670
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:21,960
Speaker 2: end of the year. But when he got there, he

1671
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,000
Speaker 2: had to like he wanted to match up Bosa and

1672
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:24,759
Speaker 2: create some havoc.

1673
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:26,960
Speaker 1: So but interesting, his name is still out there. So

1674
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 1: coming up next we will have to guess the name

1675
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:32,479

1836
01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:01,639
Speaker 12: I listen, I think you've proved your wares just there.

1837
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:03,720
Speaker 12: I didn't. I was thinking, like, Wow, this guy can

1838
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:06,080
Speaker 12: do it all if he can sell tires when he

1839
01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:08,320
Speaker 12: doesn't even have a car. But okay, let's let's not

1840
01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:09,800
Speaker 12: get let's worried.

1841
01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:11,680
Speaker 1: About this freaking guy.

1842
01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:15,760
Speaker 12: You're right, and specifically, it was the Mononga Halo. That's

1843
01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:17,559
Speaker 12: the hard one, the name out of the three rivers.

1844
01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:20,240
Speaker 12: It's always a good trivia question for anybody alleghany in

1845
01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:22,920
Speaker 12: Ohio or easy, The Mononga hal is the tough one

1846
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:26,640
Speaker 12: to get out of the three rivers. Yeah. I I

1847
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:28,680
Speaker 12: was crying into it, or I would have been had

1848
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:32,439
Speaker 12: I been there in Pittsburgh over this past week, because

1849
01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:38,960
Speaker 12: I just you know, the I was underwhelmed. On one

1850
01:22:39,000 --> 01:22:42,599
Speaker 12: small hand, I was not excited about Kenny Pickett in

1851
01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:46,200
Speaker 12: twenty twenty four, at least without any competition. On the

1852
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:50,400
Speaker 12: other small hand, though, I've been watching Russell Wilson for

1853
01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,280
Speaker 12: the last not just last year, but the last three years,

1854
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:55,800
Speaker 12: and it's very weird that there's this double standard that

1855
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:59,400
Speaker 12: has existed with Kenny Pickett. Stinks he's a bum, he's

1856
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:04,479
Speaker 12: on salvagegible. But excuses exist for Russell Wilson because he

1857
01:23:04,560 --> 01:23:06,439
Speaker 12: won a Super Bowl a decade ago. But if you

1858
01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:11,000
Speaker 12: can blur your eyes or blank out what happened a

1859
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:13,960
Speaker 12: decade ago and focus on the shorter term evidence that

1860
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:17,679
Speaker 12: we have Russell Wilson basically to me, is Kenny pick

1861
01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:19,880
Speaker 12: it all over again, with a different sort of vibe,

1862
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:23,960
Speaker 12: a different attitude. At minimum. The Steelers have now flooded

1863
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:27,040
Speaker 12: the zone with a couple of viable quarterbacks and in

1864
01:23:27,120 --> 01:23:30,400
Speaker 12: the conference, and Martin, you and I have talked about

1865
01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:34,120
Speaker 12: this a great deal. The two conferences as they stand

1866
01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:38,200
Speaker 12: right now in the NFL are two very different situations.

1867
01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:41,600
Speaker 12: On the NFC, Matthew Stafford is the best quarterback and

1868
01:23:41,640 --> 01:23:45,599
Speaker 12: then you have these other guys who are not bad players,

1869
01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:49,519
Speaker 12: but they came from different But you know, Jalen Hurtz

1870
01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:52,600
Speaker 12: was a second round pick and Rock Purdy was the

1871
01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:55,599
Speaker 12: last pick. And that doesn't not to say that they're

1872
01:23:55,640 --> 01:23:57,960
Speaker 12: bad QBS, but they aren't. All these guys who are

1873
01:23:58,040 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 12: drafted in the first right, that's basically that's right the pedigree.

1874
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:06,840
Speaker 12: So there's an obsession that I understand with if you

1875
01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 12: want to vanquish Mahomes, you better go get one of

1876
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 12: those cats, so you got no shot. And of course

1877
01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 12: you need to then look at the teams that have

1878
01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:17,960
Speaker 12: those cats and see what they've done against them. Lamar

1879
01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:23,480
Speaker 12: Jackson's Ravens haven't gotten past Stanos named Patrick Mahomes. Neither

1880
01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:29,799
Speaker 12: has Justin Herbert, neither has Josh Allen. Now Joe Burrow

1881
01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:33,280
Speaker 12: did it, I understand, but he's the kryptonite. The rest

1882
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:35,800
Speaker 12: of the QBS. They and their teams haven't been able

1883
01:24:35,840 --> 01:24:38,880
Speaker 12: to get around Mahomes either. Maybe the Steelers are just

1884
01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:41,599
Speaker 12: going to further load up at the line of scrimmage

1885
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:43,679
Speaker 12: and just try to bully the hell out of everybody

1886
01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:44,280
Speaker 12: in the AFC.

1887
01:24:44,479 --> 01:24:46,840
Speaker 1: How say you, Hey, what's going on?

1888
01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:47,080
Speaker 3: Dave?

1889
01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:48,800
Speaker 2: Are you doing this? VJ run and Husky here man.

1890
01:24:48,840 --> 01:24:50,559
Speaker 2: Great to have you on. A big fan of your work.

1891
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:53,040
Speaker 2: I always enjoygi your work, buddy. All let's stick right

1892
01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:55,840
Speaker 2: with this topic in the Steelers. I kind of feel

1893
01:24:55,880 --> 01:24:57,800
Speaker 2: how you feel about Russell Wilson. I've been a guy

1894
01:24:57,800 --> 01:24:59,759
Speaker 2: who's been on it for about two or three years myself.

1895
01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:03,479
Speaker 2: I think justin Phils kind of takes over this through

1896
01:25:03,560 --> 01:25:06,280
Speaker 2: the offseason. We're on March is early to talk about it.

1897
01:25:06,360 --> 01:25:08,320
Speaker 2: I would like to see him be named the starter,

1898
01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:11,360
Speaker 2: and I think once he is, the question I would

1899
01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:13,840
Speaker 2: give to you is, say, Phils is the starter, what

1900
01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:14,840
Speaker 2: do you do with Russ?

1901
01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:15,479
Speaker 1: Do you keep him?

1902
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:18,080
Speaker 2: Or do you not want that cloud hanging over and

1903
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 2: you cut him and let him go and just eat

1904
01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:21,920
Speaker 2: your money and find another backup that you can put

1905
01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,360
Speaker 2: in the quarterback room and let Phils be the guy

1906
01:25:24,439 --> 01:25:26,640
Speaker 2: moving forward, especially if they decide to pick up the

1907
01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:28,480
Speaker 2: fifth year option on his contract.

1908
01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:33,599
Speaker 12: Well, it's you know, I think that at this point

1909
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:36,439
Speaker 12: with Russ now it makes all the sense in the world.

1910
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:40,719
Speaker 12: My concern as a Steelers fan has been this past

1911
01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:44,400
Speaker 12: few days and you could feel where this tide was going.

1912
01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:46,559
Speaker 12: And it's really started three months ago. You've heard the

1913
01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:50,280
Speaker 12: whispers about that the Steelers coaching staff wasn't happy with

1914
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:53,160
Speaker 12: Picket way back in December and January, given his reaction

1915
01:25:53,360 --> 01:25:57,160
Speaker 12: to Rudolph's rise, and he was ready to come back,

1916
01:25:57,240 --> 01:25:59,000
Speaker 12: and the Steelers of where you're not taking the gig back.

1917
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:00,880
Speaker 12: Have you seen how Rudolph playing. We're on a roll

1918
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:02,599
Speaker 12: without you, man, we're not going to put you back

1919
01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:04,880
Speaker 12: in there now. And he was missed about that, and

1920
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:08,479
Speaker 12: he complained about it, and they weren't happy from that

1921
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:15,639
Speaker 12: point forward. Here now though, I feel like this this,

1922
01:26:15,800 --> 01:26:19,360
Speaker 12: you know, for one point two Russ is a is

1923
01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:24,599
Speaker 12: a great backup. The the alternative to that is Fields

1924
01:26:24,640 --> 01:26:26,880
Speaker 12: is a great backup. I don't know that either guy

1925
01:26:27,680 --> 01:26:30,680
Speaker 12: is a huge difference maker in a positive sense, at

1926
01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:33,760
Speaker 12: least compared to the QBS I just lifted off. They'll

1927
01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 12: try to offset that, I suppose with a run, heavy offense,

1928
01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:39,759
Speaker 12: real physical, you know, the kind of stuff that people

1929
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,679
Speaker 12: that you always hear about in Pittsburgh that they loved

1930
01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:45,120
Speaker 12: that blue collar. They they got to try to pound

1931
01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:48,479
Speaker 12: the football and dominate on defense. That TJ. Wattson Cam

1932
01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:51,760
Speaker 12: Hayward not try to rain down. I'll pat behind him

1933
01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:53,599
Speaker 12: and all the rest of them. And I don't think

1934
01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:56,840
Speaker 12: that that's an impossibility. Given the way things are shaping up.

1935
01:26:56,840 --> 01:27:00,160
Speaker 12: That roster that they've put together is pretty you know,

1936
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:02,920
Speaker 12: in the age of free agency, there's no flawless roster.

1937
01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:06,040
Speaker 12: The Chiefs reminded us that last year you can still

1938
01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:10,799
Speaker 12: win Super Bowls with some flaws out there. I think though,

1939
01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:15,080
Speaker 12: that if you're a Steelers fan right now, Russ or Fields.

1940
01:27:15,120 --> 01:27:17,720
Speaker 12: Obviously they're not the same the same guy, and they

1941
01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:21,000
Speaker 12: don't have the same attributes, but they do have similar

1942
01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:23,960
Speaker 12: skill sets. If you consider what Arthur Smith wants to

1943
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:27,160
Speaker 12: do running the ball and all of that sort of thing,

1944
01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:33,360
Speaker 12: you know, I can I can absolutely see them mirroring

1945
01:27:33,479 --> 01:27:37,880
Speaker 12: more of the NFC Powerhouse model, which is, who are

1946
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:40,240
Speaker 12: the two teams that really came closest in the last

1947
01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:42,479
Speaker 12: couple of years to taken out those Chiefs. It was

1948
01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:46,320
Speaker 12: the Eagles in the Super Bowl last year and then

1949
01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:48,559
Speaker 12: the Niners in this year Super Bowl. If you blur

1950
01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:51,080
Speaker 12: your eyes kind of think about it in those terms,

1951
01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,280
Speaker 12: I could see the Steelers making some hey playing that

1952
01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:58,599
Speaker 12: kind of ball. They're not dominant at QB, but they

1953
01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:02,240
Speaker 12: have skill and brawn all over the field. Off status,

1954
01:28:02,400 --> 01:28:04,960
Speaker 12: I think it's about as good as they're gonna do

1955
01:28:05,080 --> 01:28:07,519
Speaker 12: short of trading up to get Jade Daniels or Drake May,

1956
01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:09,679
Speaker 12: which is pretty implausible at this point.

1957
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:12,120
Speaker 1: So Dave, I'm want to tomorrow phrase from you. Let's

1958
01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:15,280
Speaker 1: go back into the rearview mirror to big Bad. Yesterday,

1959
01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:19,120
Speaker 1: when Jenny Pickett was traded to Philadelphia, the reports out

1960
01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:22,760
Speaker 1: of Pittsburgh were saying, basically, it's, I mean to summarize it,

1961
01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:25,240
Speaker 1: that he didn't want to compete for the starting job,

1962
01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:28,200
Speaker 1: right Russ was going to get the first snaps and

1963
01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:31,800
Speaker 1: OTA's with the ones. And after that, Kenny Pickett was like,

1964
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:33,560
Speaker 1: all right, I'm good. Why don't you go ahead and

1965
01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:37,000
Speaker 1: send me somewhere else. I feel like today, if I'm

1966
01:28:37,080 --> 01:28:39,800
Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett, I'm looking around at my agent and the

1967
01:28:39,800 --> 01:28:42,240
Speaker 1: people who are advising me and saying, well, what the hell?

1968
01:28:42,680 --> 01:28:45,000
Speaker 1: Because this, to me, I know the reports from Brook

1969
01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:47,120
Speaker 1: Pryor and Adam Schefter, so I'm saying that Russ is

1970
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:51,000
Speaker 1: the day one starter. But this feels like a move.

1971
01:28:51,080 --> 01:28:53,400
Speaker 1: You make a move like this because there is going

1972
01:28:53,439 --> 01:28:56,800
Speaker 1: to be a quarterback competition, whether or not it's it's

1973
01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:01,360
Speaker 1: explicitly stated or under the current, because I mean, how

1974
01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:03,600
Speaker 1: many times can the second team guy look better than

1975
01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:06,240
Speaker 1: the first tem guy without it being a quarterback competition. Right,

1976
01:29:06,280 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 1: So that's what I wonder if Kenny Pickett was Dalan Pittsburgh. Hey,

1977
01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:12,479
Speaker 1: this deal probably doesn't get Do you think this deal

1978
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:15,080
Speaker 1: gets made? And if it doesn't, do you think that

1979
01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:17,000
Speaker 1: Kenny Pickott had a legit shot to try to get

1980
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:17,800
Speaker 1: the starting job?

1981
01:29:18,840 --> 01:29:19,080
Speaker 7: Well?

1982
01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:23,360
Speaker 12: I had. I had former Steeler Trey Essex on Minus

1983
01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:26,040
Speaker 12: three a couple few days ago. We were talking about

1984
01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:28,920
Speaker 12: exactly that could you still bring in fields? And he

1985
01:29:29,000 --> 01:29:31,080
Speaker 12: thought what I He made what I thought was a

1986
01:29:31,080 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 12: really good point that I hadn't considered even without Russ.

1987
01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 12: If you know, let's say you just doesn'tdo all of

1988
01:29:37,360 --> 01:29:41,000
Speaker 12: that and Mason Rudolph is the third QB or whomever

1989
01:29:41,040 --> 01:29:44,160
Speaker 12: else you have. If you it's a lot to say

1990
01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:47,439
Speaker 12: figure out like we've now given you justin Field and

1991
01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:50,519
Speaker 12: Kenny Pickett, and between those two guys, one of them

1992
01:29:50,560 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 12: should rise up. This was my cell in my head

1993
01:29:53,200 --> 01:29:56,320
Speaker 12: into the public. As you know, Martin the last few

1994
01:29:56,360 --> 01:29:59,559
Speaker 12: months here was not not being over my over my

1995
01:29:59,600 --> 01:30:02,639
Speaker 12: skis about Kenny Pickett. They needed to flood the zone,

1996
01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:06,840
Speaker 12: give him some competition and feels with the high Pedigree

1997
01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:09,760
Speaker 12: and Picket. There's some evidence that he can make it

1998
01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:12,280
Speaker 12: in the NFL. Let those two battle it out, not

1999
01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:14,479
Speaker 12: just this year, but next year two. You pay them

2000
01:30:14,920 --> 01:30:18,920
Speaker 12: fifth year option, and now you have thirty four games essentially.

2001
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:20,719
Speaker 12: I know it's gets a little tricky with the fifty

2002
01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:22,800
Speaker 12: year options with qbs, and you'd get into the same

2003
01:30:22,800 --> 01:30:25,360
Speaker 12: thing with Picket a year from now, but anyway you

2004
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:28,680
Speaker 12: would probably someone would rise and then you would have

2005
01:30:28,720 --> 01:30:33,360
Speaker 12: your QB for the next half decade or so. But

2006
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:36,880
Speaker 12: what Trey said that's right, is like that's a lot

2007
01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:39,640
Speaker 12: to manage. So you're trying to build back up two qbs.

2008
01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:41,280
Speaker 12: It's hard to do that with one guy. So if

2009
01:30:41,320 --> 01:30:44,200
Speaker 12: you're trying to like do a project and get them

2010
01:30:44,240 --> 01:30:47,440
Speaker 12: to a place where they're you know, higher end quarterbacks

2011
01:30:47,479 --> 01:30:50,479
Speaker 12: with two cats, that's hard to do. So okay, that

2012
01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:53,120
Speaker 12: makes sense that they maybe wouldn't have done that if

2013
01:30:53,160 --> 01:30:56,160
Speaker 12: Picket and Russ are the two guys. Let those two

2014
01:30:56,520 --> 01:31:00,679
Speaker 12: battle it out. I'm with you, man, Listen. Three months ago,

2015
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:05,880
Speaker 12: we were given strong evidence that Kenny Pickett was was

2016
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:10,120
Speaker 12: going to wilt with any sort of pressure internally. I mean,

2017
01:31:10,160 --> 01:31:13,599
Speaker 12: it's a bad spot. His teammates you know, Deontay Johnson

2018
01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:16,439
Speaker 12: now just got traded away over it. But George Pickens

2019
01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:19,000
Speaker 12: and Deontay Johnson and others in the locker room were

2020
01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:23,640
Speaker 12: unhappy with Picket. I understand pickets frustration. Everybody in the

2021
01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:28,160
Speaker 12: world declared Matt Canada, the old offensive coordinator, was an atrocity,

2022
01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:30,439
Speaker 12: the worst human being to ever walk the planet Earth,

2023
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:33,320
Speaker 12: or at least an NFL sideline, and all of that,

2024
01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:36,240
Speaker 12: no one could ever make it. Joe Namath and Tom

2025
01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:38,479
Speaker 12: Brady could have a baby. That guy wouldn't be a

2026
01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:41,200
Speaker 12: good quarterback under Matt Canada and all that. So I

2027
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:45,559
Speaker 12: can understand Pickett being frustrated, like, well, Rudolph was doing

2028
01:31:45,600 --> 01:31:48,600
Speaker 12: it all without without Matt Canada. Why don't I get my

2029
01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:52,120
Speaker 12: shot without the terrible offensive coordinator. That's the way the

2030
01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:54,960
Speaker 12: cookie crumbled. You weren't dominant, Kenny Pickett. You're not in

2031
01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 12: the spot to write your own ticket the way Tom

2032
01:31:57,520 --> 01:32:00,720
Speaker 12: Brady could keen. You're Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisper, could you know,

2033
01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:03,240
Speaker 12: like you're not the same second, You're two years in

2034
01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:07,160
Speaker 12: and have been at best mediocre with some flashes of

2035
01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:10,479
Speaker 12: clutchness breaking through there. I get it. I think he's

2036
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:12,919
Speaker 12: got to feel like, what have I done? He shouldn't

2037
01:32:12,920 --> 01:32:17,280
Speaker 12: have bellyached behind the scenes in December and January. He

2038
01:32:17,280 --> 01:32:19,800
Speaker 12: should have just been a good teammate. And I'm sure

2039
01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:22,800
Speaker 12: he regrets that. Then he's given another test because of

2040
01:32:22,840 --> 01:32:25,639
Speaker 12: that behavior. They say, we have to challenge this kid

2041
01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:29,439
Speaker 12: in football terms too, so they give him a reasonable

2042
01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,320
Speaker 12: level of competition in Russell Wilson. And his reaction is

2043
01:32:32,360 --> 01:32:34,519
Speaker 12: what now I've been like to And maybe he was.

2044
01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:37,040
Speaker 12: Maybe he feels a little deceived, but that was the

2045
01:32:37,040 --> 01:32:39,800
Speaker 12: best spot for him. Witness where he is now behind

2046
01:32:39,840 --> 01:32:43,080
Speaker 12: Jalen Hurts. I, you know, good for him to be

2047
01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:45,400
Speaker 12: away from it. If it was a bad situation. It

2048
01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:48,679
Speaker 12: was a pressure cooker. I said it before they drafted

2049
01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:53,320
Speaker 12: Kenny Pickett and after that. My concern for that kid

2050
01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:56,679
Speaker 12: as a human being is that you know a lot

2051
01:32:56,720 --> 01:33:00,800
Speaker 12: of insers for decades, and you know, my old man

2052
01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:03,439
Speaker 12: was one of them, went on and on. My old

2053
01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:06,920
Speaker 12: man was a doctor four pitt. He knew why Danny

2054
01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:10,040
Speaker 12: Marino fell in the draft, and yet he couldn't understand

2055
01:33:10,080 --> 01:33:13,160
Speaker 12: why the Steelers didn't take it. Dan Marino, this was

2056
01:33:13,160 --> 01:33:16,360
Speaker 12: a make good, a spiritual make good. That was forty

2057
01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:18,439
Speaker 12: years in the making or whatever it was. Since they

2058
01:33:18,479 --> 01:33:21,280
Speaker 12: didn't take Marino, they had to take Anny Pickett. Once

2059
01:33:21,320 --> 01:33:25,559
Speaker 12: in a generation at best opportunity the pitt Kid to

2060
01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:29,639
Speaker 12: play for the Pittsburgh Steelers had to happen. I'm glad

2061
01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:32,160
Speaker 12: it happened, even though it has worked out to be

2062
01:33:32,200 --> 01:33:34,679
Speaker 12: a colossal failure. I would do it again a million

2063
01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:37,600
Speaker 12: times over because of the cool factor. For a provincial

2064
01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:40,519
Speaker 12: town like Pittsburgh, you do it. But now it's over with,

2065
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:43,479
Speaker 12: and you know, I feel bad that a lot of

2066
01:33:43,479 --> 01:33:47,559
Speaker 12: people probably had expectations. My big remark to people was,

2067
01:33:48,280 --> 01:33:50,720
Speaker 12: he ain't gonna be Dan Marino. You understand, like, it's

2068
01:33:50,720 --> 01:33:52,920
Speaker 12: cool that he's the pit QB, and if they could

2069
01:33:52,920 --> 01:33:58,200
Speaker 12: win with the pit QB, it makes a Pittsburgh championship

2070
01:33:58,280 --> 01:34:03,200
Speaker 12: that much cooler. Don't anticipate him breaking all the records

2071
01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:05,439
Speaker 12: in the books or anything that that. That's a different thing.

2072
01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:08,800
Speaker 12: I think that pressure contributed to, you know, in terms

2073
01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:12,040
Speaker 12: of expectations and otherwise. But now it's over with, and

2074
01:34:12,400 --> 01:34:16,840
Speaker 12: at least they now have two reasonable options at quarterback.

2075
01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:19,800
Speaker 12: Neither one I think is you know, winning the m

2076
01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:22,559
Speaker 12: v P in the coming season. But I think they're

2077
01:34:22,840 --> 01:34:27,240
Speaker 12: good enough to at this spot. Another good draft here,

2078
01:34:27,240 --> 01:34:29,040
Speaker 12: and I think now you can kind of see im

2079
01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:32,599
Speaker 12: the ten ten wins last year with Mitchell Trubisky playing

2080
01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:35,840
Speaker 12: three games for you, you kind of figure like that

2081
01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:40,320
Speaker 12: should be got to be there for right, They.

2082
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,439
Speaker 1: Got to like that. And Dave, to your point, you

2083
01:34:43,439 --> 01:34:46,840
Speaker 1: were absolutely right saying Kenny Pikey with not with hands

2084
01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,000
Speaker 1: that size, he wasn't going to be the next Dan Marino.

2085
01:34:49,080 --> 01:34:51,840
Speaker 1: But you're my favorite Genser pal. And you know what,

2086

Speaker 1: in just a moment. North Carolina and c State about

2117
01:36:19,479 --> 01:36:22,200
Speaker 1: the tip off in an end state rivalry, albeit the

2118
01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:30,320
Speaker 1: one that's less popular. Saquon Barkley he man, what's up? Yeah, yeah,

2119
01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:34,519
Speaker 1: go ahead. You got to know. So Saquon signs with

2120
01:36:34,600 --> 01:36:38,519
Speaker 1: the Eagles and apparently, like you know what's celebrating about

2121
01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:42,479
Speaker 1: it a little bit felt the need to apologize to

2122
01:36:42,680 --> 01:36:47,760
Speaker 1: Giant fans after afterwards, after signing with the Eagles and

2123
01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:49,880
Speaker 1: was you know the news he said, the news broke

2124
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:53,040
Speaker 1: and he was super excited and he was tweeting about

2125
01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:54,639
Speaker 1: it and how he was you know, tweeted the eagle

2126
01:36:54,680 --> 01:36:57,360
Speaker 1: emoji and he was happy to be an Eagle. Right.

2127
01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:00,960
Speaker 1: This is after numerous in which he said, you know,

2128
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:02,120
Speaker 1: I want to be a giant for life. I want

2129
01:37:02,160 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 1: to be a giant for life. Want to be a

2130
01:37:03,240 --> 01:37:05,200
Speaker 1: giant for life. Now he's an Eagle and he seems

2131
01:37:05,200 --> 01:37:07,920
Speaker 1: to be super happy about it. We heard the Tiki

2132
01:37:08,000 --> 01:37:10,160
Speaker 1: Barber You're dead to me, which now everybody in the

2133
01:37:10,280 --> 01:37:11,680
Speaker 1: NFL is making fun of. I don't know if you

2134
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:14,439
Speaker 1: saw Kyler Murray tweet that the Hollywood Brown you know

2135
01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:16,599
Speaker 1: this is now that's the big joke of your dead

2136
01:37:16,600 --> 01:37:20,679
Speaker 1: to me after Tiki Barber's situation. But Sakwa Barkley felt

2137
01:37:20,680 --> 01:37:24,920
Speaker 1: the need to apologize to Giant fans and I it

2138
01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:28,840
Speaker 1: something about it just is just sticking in the wrong

2139
01:37:28,920 --> 01:37:32,960
Speaker 1: spot for me, Like, why on earth the Saiquon need

2140
01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:36,200
Speaker 1: to apologize because the Giants weren't willing to offer him

2141
01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:39,599
Speaker 1: the contract that the Eagles were. How is that Saiquon's fault.

2142
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:43,760
Speaker 1: It's not Saquan's fault. This is this falls under fan

2143
01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:48,480
Speaker 1: entitlement to me, which I hate. I can't stand fan entitlement.

2144
01:37:49,040 --> 01:37:51,759
Speaker 2: You I don't owe you. Do players owe us nothing?

2145
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:55,360
Speaker 2: They don't owe you anything. Fans they don't owe me nothing.

2146
01:37:55,400 --> 01:37:57,879
Speaker 2: And I'm a guy that feels like I'm spiritually connected

2147
01:37:57,920 --> 01:37:58,880
Speaker 2: to my damn teams.

2148
01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm connected to the I'm connected to the player. That's me.

2149
01:38:01,720 --> 01:38:04,040
Speaker 2: That's my little quirkinness. I don't care who like it.

2150
01:38:04,080 --> 01:38:06,960
Speaker 2: That's why I row they don't owe me nothing. I

2151
01:38:07,080 --> 01:38:10,000
Speaker 2: wasn't mad Christian Wilkins left the Dolphins. Giants fans, are

2152
01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:12,240
Speaker 2: you kidding me? They could have paid this man.

2153
01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:17,280
Speaker 1: But the whole comeback and apologize almost feels like they

2154
01:38:17,400 --> 01:38:22,360
Speaker 1: wanna be liked syndrome Because fans have so much entitlement now,

2155
01:38:22,560 --> 01:38:25,320
Speaker 1: players don't want to say or do the wrong things

2156
01:38:25,400 --> 01:38:28,639
Speaker 1: or rough people wrong because they don't want to look bad.

2157
01:38:28,760 --> 01:38:32,599
Speaker 2: They don't want to be hated. Sakwan, go run in Philly,

2158
01:38:32,680 --> 01:38:35,280
Speaker 2: Run your heart out when you play the Giants both times.

2159
01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:38,960
Speaker 2: Take that ball and shove it you nowhere every time

2160
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,120
Speaker 2: you run the football against him. I thought this move

2161
01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:46,439
Speaker 2: felt almost like the breakup, and then your girl goes

2162
01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:49,040
Speaker 2: and dates your enemy. Like your breakup with a girl,

2163
01:38:49,560 --> 01:38:52,280
Speaker 2: and then she don't date your boy or dude. She

2164
01:38:52,439 --> 01:38:54,200
Speaker 2: goes and dates the guy you got in a bar

2165
01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:57,200
Speaker 2: fight with three months ago. She goes in date. That's

2166
01:38:57,400 --> 01:38:59,760
Speaker 2: that's how this deal really felt to me. To have

2167
01:38:59,880 --> 01:39:02,960
Speaker 2: to apologize the team. You're gonna run harder, You're gonna

2168
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:05,360
Speaker 2: lose sleep the night before the game. He's gonna be

2169
01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:08,920
Speaker 2: amped up to go back into that stadium and play

2170
01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:12,040
Speaker 2: this team. But Mark, this falls under fan entitlement, and

2171
01:39:12,080 --> 01:39:14,519
Speaker 2: it makes these players feel like they have to do this.

2172
01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:19,799
Speaker 2: The players don't owe a fan a damn thing, period.

2173
01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:22,479
Speaker 2: They own a family, they owe themselves, they own a

2174
01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:23,479
Speaker 2: franchise that pays them.

2175
01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:25,519
Speaker 1: They don't owe the fans nothing. I think they other

2176
01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:28,240
Speaker 1: fans a level of respect, right. I think I think

2177
01:39:28,360 --> 01:39:30,800
Speaker 1: that's something that especially when you're in the business of

2178
01:39:31,320 --> 01:39:35,479
Speaker 1: professional athletics that is primarily financed by fans and driven

2179
01:39:35,520 --> 01:39:37,600
Speaker 1: by fans, and like that's kind of the way that

2180
01:39:37,640 --> 01:39:39,960
Speaker 1: the whole thing goes. That's where the big money comes from,

2181
01:39:40,400 --> 01:39:44,160
Speaker 1: the fans watching it on those TV deals. But I

2182
01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:47,120
Speaker 1: the thing is okay, So I kind of agree with you.

2183
01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:50,360
Speaker 1: The breakup, right, and then they go and date the

2184
01:39:50,479 --> 01:39:52,200
Speaker 1: guy who you always have hated?

2185
01:39:52,280 --> 01:39:52,439
Speaker 8: Right?

2186
01:39:53,439 --> 01:39:54,360
Speaker 1: How could you do that?

2187
01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:54,680
Speaker 7: Right?

2188
01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:57,000
Speaker 1: How could you move on and start creating the guy

2189
01:39:57,000 --> 01:39:59,080
Speaker 1: that I hated less than a week? Here's the answer.

2190
01:39:59,400 --> 01:40:02,120
Speaker 1: Here's the answer. If you don't want her to go

2191
01:40:02,240 --> 01:40:04,439
Speaker 1: date the guy you don't like, the best thing to

2192
01:40:04,520 --> 01:40:07,479
Speaker 1: do is not break up. What dark? You know what?

2193
01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:09,320
Speaker 1: That's the thing, because you know what said? Why I

2194
01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:10,680
Speaker 1: believe him when he said he wanted to be a

2195
01:40:10,680 --> 01:40:12,960
Speaker 1: giant for life, And you tell you what, if the

2196
01:40:13,000 --> 01:40:15,080
Speaker 1: giants would offer him three years, thirty seven and a

2197
01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:19,120
Speaker 1: half million dollars, you know what, he'd being blue. But

2198
01:40:19,160 --> 01:40:22,719
Speaker 1: because they didn't care to do so, he is now

2199
01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:25,639
Speaker 1: going somewhere where they want to pay him. I don't

2200
01:40:25,640 --> 01:40:27,559
Speaker 1: see the fault. I don't see the anger, and I

2201
01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:29,720
Speaker 1: definitely don't see why you need to apologize for it

2202
01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:32,000
Speaker 1: if you don't want him to go somewhere else I

2203
01:40:32,040 --> 01:40:35,080
Speaker 1: think there's one way to do it. Lock him up,

2204
01:40:35,880 --> 01:40:38,080
Speaker 1: make the pump, put the contract on the table. I'll

2205
01:40:38,120 --> 01:40:39,760
Speaker 1: tell you this, if you offer him three years, thirty

2206
01:40:39,760 --> 01:40:43,040
Speaker 1: seven and a half million dollars last year instead of protagoning,

2207
01:40:43,160 --> 01:40:44,560
Speaker 1: you would have been in good shape and he'd be

2208
01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:46,120
Speaker 1: a New York Giant right now.

2209
01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:48,080
Speaker 2: They could have took care of this two years ago.

2210
01:40:48,160 --> 01:40:50,920
Speaker 2: Many they drugged their feet on this. The Giants have

2211
01:40:51,040 --> 01:40:55,599
Speaker 2: put themselves in such a bad position. The minute they

2212
01:40:55,680 --> 01:41:00,479
Speaker 2: decided that a fifteen touchdown throwing quarterback was worth forty

2213
01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:05,120
Speaker 2: dollars a season, they sold up their three year window

2214
01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:09,559
Speaker 2: and in future right then and there. Now look where

2215
01:41:09,600 --> 01:41:11,800
Speaker 2: we are, Look where we are today. But back to

2216
01:41:11,840 --> 01:41:15,080
Speaker 2: the Zakuan thing. He didn't have to apologize the fans.

2217
01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:15,280
Speaker 3: Man.

2218
01:41:15,280 --> 01:41:17,519
Speaker 2: And when I say, yeah, he owed the older fans

2219
01:41:17,560 --> 01:41:19,960
Speaker 2: respect to me, that's just that's that's a given that

2220
01:41:20,280 --> 01:41:22,439
Speaker 2: that doesn't to me it has to be spoken. But

2221
01:41:22,640 --> 01:41:26,320
Speaker 2: apologizing the fans because you decided to take a deal

2222
01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:28,840
Speaker 2: that the current team was not willing to give you

2223
01:41:28,880 --> 01:41:31,559
Speaker 2: so you can set up generational wealth for your family,

2224
01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:34,080
Speaker 2: so you can live a lavish life, so you could

2225
01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:36,240
Speaker 2: take care of your mom and your daddy, your aunties,

2226
01:41:36,280 --> 01:41:39,479
Speaker 2: your cousins, your kids, your wife, your lady, your little honey,

2227
01:41:39,479 --> 01:41:41,960
Speaker 2: dip on the side, whatever the case may be. I'm

2228
01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:45,760
Speaker 2: not apologizing to a damn person for that. When this

2229
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:49,479
Speaker 2: team had a thirty six month window to take care

2230
01:41:49,479 --> 01:41:52,760
Speaker 2: of me, they chose not to. I chose to move

2231
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:54,120
Speaker 2: on with the guy that beat you up at the

2232
01:41:54,160 --> 01:41:55,439
Speaker 2: sports bar three weeks ago.

2233
01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:58,240
Speaker 1: That's the way it goes. Now, let's kick it to

2234
01:41:58,280 --> 01:42:00,720

01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:01,800
Speaker 1: Steve the Sega.

01:44:38,040 --> 01:44:40,559
Speaker 1: Back to you thanks Steve, and without further ado, let's

2284
01:44:40,560 --> 01:44:44,479
Speaker 1: go ahead get this Gangs to Party started with Tyler Dragon.

2285
01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:46,960
Speaker 1: You know, we've been on for three hours. Normally we

2286
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:49,200
Speaker 1: have been the first hour of the show. Today we're

2287
01:44:49,200 --> 01:44:52,240
Speaker 1: wrapping it up with my guy, Tyler. Tyler, how the

2288
01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:54,800
Speaker 1: hell are you doing today? NFL inside of USA today?

2289
01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:55,759
Speaker 1: How are you, my friend?

2290
01:44:56,360 --> 01:44:59,320
Speaker 7: Oh man, I'm finale of the show. I'm doing good.

2291
01:44:59,400 --> 01:45:02,519
Speaker 7: It's nice weather out here on Saturday, and a lot

2292
01:45:02,560 --> 01:45:05,799
Speaker 7: of news in the NFL, the league that never.

2293
01:45:05,640 --> 01:45:10,000
Speaker 1: Sleeps, that is a fact, and this fresh off depresses

2294
01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:14,080
Speaker 1: on X danger. Russ Wilson, who's now got his photo

2295
01:45:14,080 --> 01:45:18,360
Speaker 1: shots Pittsburgh Steeler uniform as his profile picture, posted a

2296
01:45:18,360 --> 01:45:21,040
Speaker 1: picture of him shaking hands with Justin Fields at some

2297
01:45:21,120 --> 01:45:24,280
Speaker 1: point throughout his Broncos tenure, saying, let's get it Justin

2298
01:45:24,280 --> 01:45:27,559
Speaker 1: Fields qb room about to be fire emoji, fire emoji,

2299
01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:30,600
Speaker 1: fire emoji. So what's your take on the news of

2300
01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:31,240
Speaker 1: the day, Tyler.

2301
01:45:32,479 --> 01:45:34,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, So, a couple of weeks ago, I remember being

2302
01:45:34,840 --> 01:45:37,400
Speaker 7: on this show and I told you all that the

2303
01:45:37,479 --> 01:45:41,240
Speaker 7: Steelers were one of three teams interested in Justin Fields,

2304
01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:46,240
Speaker 7: and when they got Russell Wilson, I was still hearing

2305
01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:48,519
Speaker 7: the same thing. That's still keep in mind that the

2306
01:45:48,560 --> 01:45:53,760
Speaker 7: Steelers are interested in fields, so I wasn't surprised, but

2307
01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:59,600
Speaker 7: I am surprised that Field and Wilson are. So you know,

2308
01:45:59,640 --> 01:46:03,320
Speaker 7: there chefting being teammates and being in the same qv

2309
01:46:03,479 --> 01:46:08,160
Speaker 7: room and Russell Wilson taking Justin Fields under his wing

2310
01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:11,240
Speaker 7: for at least one year and kind of teaching him

2311
01:46:11,320 --> 01:46:14,240
Speaker 7: the ropes and trying to get him to be a

2312
01:46:14,479 --> 01:46:19,040
Speaker 7: more complete quarterback. And it's a really interesting dynamic in Pittsburgh,

2313
01:46:19,120 --> 01:46:21,960
Speaker 7: and I think is going to do both of the

2314
01:46:22,080 --> 01:46:26,800
Speaker 7: quarterbacks well in twenty twenty four and beyond. For Justin

2315
01:46:26,840 --> 01:46:27,519
Speaker 7: Field's sake.

2316
01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:31,920
Speaker 2: Taler Dragon's going on with vj uner Husky, Man, how's

2317
01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:33,760
Speaker 2: the little one? And how's the missus doing at the house.

2318
01:46:34,439 --> 01:46:36,160
Speaker 7: They're doing good, can't complain.

2319
01:46:36,280 --> 01:46:38,200
Speaker 1: I always always love to hear that, man. Okay, So

2320
01:46:38,280 --> 01:46:40,879
Speaker 1: then this means that we know who's going number one,

2321
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:42,720
Speaker 1: So we don't even have to talk about that no more.

2322
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:45,080
Speaker 1: Now the window, in my opinion, I'm pretty sure a

2323
01:46:45,120 --> 01:46:47,880
Speaker 1: guy in your business too, this opens up. Now, what

2324
01:46:47,920 --> 01:46:49,640
Speaker 1: are we doing with two and three here? With the

2325
01:46:50,360 --> 01:46:53,720
Speaker 1: commanders in the Patriots? Do they both stand firm there.

2326
01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:56,280
Speaker 2: We know Minnesota made some deals to get another first

2327
01:46:56,360 --> 01:46:58,160
Speaker 2: round pick. A lot of people think that's going to

2328
01:46:58,240 --> 01:47:00,360
Speaker 2: be used to try to jump up into the top

2329
01:47:00,400 --> 01:47:04,479
Speaker 2: three or four to grab one of these quarterbacks. So two, three, four,

2330
01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:06,479
Speaker 2: I think they're not going for a quarterback. May they

2331
01:47:06,520 --> 01:47:08,320
Speaker 2: slide out of Eric? I actually last week I was

2332
01:47:08,320 --> 01:47:10,960
Speaker 2: surprised when you you said that they would probably take

2333
01:47:11,040 --> 01:47:14,000
Speaker 2: Rome over a Marve Harrison. You are slide back and

2334
01:47:14,040 --> 01:47:16,080
Speaker 2: get one of those. But focus on two or three

2335
01:47:16,160 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 2: right here? What are we looking as this? Daniels May, May, Daniels,

2336
01:47:19,960 --> 01:47:20,840
Speaker 2: somebody moving out?

2337
01:47:20,840 --> 01:47:21,840
Speaker 1: What do you what do you like it? What are

2338
01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:22,240
Speaker 1: you hearing?

2339
01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:27,439
Speaker 7: I'm hearing Daniels is probably going to be the second

2340
01:47:27,520 --> 01:47:31,479
Speaker 7: overall pick, and then you may see Drake May at

2341
01:47:31,520 --> 01:47:34,679
Speaker 7: that number three overall pick. The real question is what's

2342
01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:38,599
Speaker 7: going to happen at four, five, and six, top three.

2343
01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:41,920
Speaker 7: I believe it's pretty much firmly said that it's going

2344
01:47:42,000 --> 01:47:45,439
Speaker 7: to be quarterbacks. But as another team going to trade

2345
01:47:45,520 --> 01:47:49,880
Speaker 7: up with, you know, the Chargers, or trade up at

2346
01:47:49,960 --> 01:47:52,960
Speaker 7: four for the Cardinals and try to get a quarterback,

2347
01:47:53,080 --> 01:47:55,679
Speaker 7: that that is a question that a lot of people

2348
01:47:55,720 --> 01:48:00,479
Speaker 7: are wondering right now. Four and five Cardinals certain need

2349
01:48:00,560 --> 01:48:04,000
Speaker 7: a wide receiver. The Chargers definitely need a wide receiver.

2350
01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:09,000
Speaker 7: So that position right there is JJ McCarthy going to

2351
01:48:09,920 --> 01:48:12,840
Speaker 7: get enough rais enough eyebrows, so it seems to trade

2352
01:48:12,880 --> 01:48:15,360
Speaker 7: up to get him. That's going to be the million

2353
01:48:15,400 --> 01:48:18,360
Speaker 7: dollar question entering the draft right now, because I believe

2354
01:48:18,400 --> 01:48:22,040
Speaker 7: the top three teams certainly are going to get quarterbacks,

2355
01:48:22,040 --> 01:48:25,000
Speaker 7: and then the Commanders and the New England Patriots a.

2356
01:48:24,960 --> 01:48:27,360
Speaker 1: Few million dollar questions for jjm as far as JJ

2357
01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:31,680
Speaker 1: McCarthy is concerned. And I think, is it now? Is

2358
01:48:31,760 --> 01:48:33,960
Speaker 1: it pretty I mean, to me, it's pretty evident that

2359
01:48:34,080 --> 01:48:36,400
Speaker 1: Minnesota feels like they're going to be trying to throw

2360
01:48:36,439 --> 01:48:39,040
Speaker 1: their hat in the ring for one of these picks

2361
01:48:39,040 --> 01:48:41,439
Speaker 1: between now and the NFL Draft, seeing as they just

2362
01:48:41,439 --> 01:48:44,280
Speaker 1: went up. I mean, they're not getting the eleventh and

2363
01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:47,160
Speaker 1: what the twenty third pick that they have just to

2364
01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:49,760
Speaker 1: pick at eleven, right, They're they're they're doing that to

2365
01:48:49,800 --> 01:48:50,920
Speaker 1: package up and try to move.

2366
01:48:51,160 --> 01:48:51,200
Speaker 3: No.

2367
01:48:52,200 --> 01:48:56,559
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, and that's what many around the NFL believe.

2368
01:48:56,680 --> 01:48:59,920
Speaker 7: But the question is how high are they willing to go?

2369
01:49:00,680 --> 01:49:02,760
Speaker 7: And to me, it's going to have to be in

2370
01:49:02,800 --> 01:49:06,120
Speaker 7: that top six because even the Giants sitting there at six,

2371
01:49:06,560 --> 01:49:10,360
Speaker 7: I'm hearing they like McCarthy and they are not so

2372
01:49:10,439 --> 01:49:12,960
Speaker 7: high on Daniel Jones and they might be willing to

2373
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:17,599
Speaker 7: draft him at number six. So the Vikings do they

2374
01:49:17,680 --> 01:49:21,439
Speaker 7: have enough ammunition to get up in that top six range,

2375
01:49:21,720 --> 01:49:24,679
Speaker 7: and best believe that they're going to be calling the Cardinals.

2376
01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:27,599
Speaker 7: They're going to be calling the charge because those two

2377
01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:31,040
Speaker 7: teams are the only teams and within that top five

2378
01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:35,040
Speaker 7: to sixth range that are comfortable and with their starting quarterbacks.

2379
01:49:35,080 --> 01:49:39,680
Speaker 7: So yeah, it's what the Vikings did earlier to acquire

2380
01:49:39,720 --> 01:49:44,479
Speaker 7: that extra first round pick is certainly interesting and certainly

2381
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:47,080
Speaker 7: is a signal that they want to move up in

2382
01:49:47,120 --> 01:49:48,799
Speaker 7: that top eight range.

2383
01:49:49,640 --> 01:49:51,439
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I'll tell you why they may not be

2384
01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:53,599
Speaker 2: so sold on Daniel Jones. Matter of fact, I'll give

2385
01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:55,960
Speaker 2: you forty five million reasons that would come into next

2386
01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:57,760
Speaker 2: year why they might not be sold on him.

2387
01:49:57,800 --> 01:49:59,679
Speaker 1: But let's go to some free agents. We were talking

2388
01:49:59,720 --> 01:50:02,320
Speaker 1: early about a guy by the name of Justin Simmons,

2389
01:50:02,439 --> 01:50:04,280
Speaker 1: and we're really trying to figure this out. Why he's

2390
01:50:04,280 --> 01:50:04,959
Speaker 1: still available.

2391
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:07,280
Speaker 2: Are you hearing anything or team's just waiting to clear

2392
01:50:07,360 --> 01:50:10,040
Speaker 2: some cap? More cap restructure some deals to get a

2393
01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:11,320
Speaker 2: guy like him in is he want a.

2394
01:50:11,320 --> 01:50:12,240
Speaker 1: High asking price?

2395
01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:14,360
Speaker 2: Why is a guy that is so good at his position,

2396
01:50:14,439 --> 01:50:15,760
Speaker 2: like Justin Simmons still out there.

2397
01:50:15,840 --> 01:50:17,160
Speaker 1: What are you hearing out there on the street.

2398
01:50:18,080 --> 01:50:21,719
Speaker 7: Yeah, he's number one creating available in my opinion, especially

2399
01:50:21,800 --> 01:50:26,000
Speaker 7: now since Tyron Smith is going to New York Jets.

2400
01:50:26,240 --> 01:50:29,280
Speaker 7: And to me, a lot of times, the safety position,

2401
01:50:29,720 --> 01:50:32,400
Speaker 7: especially right now, is being devalued. It's almost like the

2402
01:50:32,479 --> 01:50:35,920
Speaker 7: running back position, but for the defense. And you see

2403
01:50:35,960 --> 01:50:37,880
Speaker 7: a lot of these teams they're either letting go of

2404
01:50:37,920 --> 01:50:41,000
Speaker 7: their safeties, asking safeties to take a pay cut. And

2405
01:50:41,200 --> 01:50:44,040
Speaker 7: that has to do with the league kind of transitioning

2406
01:50:44,120 --> 01:50:46,880
Speaker 7: into more of a short pass game and running the

2407
01:50:46,880 --> 01:50:49,679
Speaker 7: football a little bit more, and the safeties a lot

2408
01:50:49,680 --> 01:50:53,440
Speaker 7: of these times, especially with Simmons, they want to erase

2409
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:56,640
Speaker 7: the big plays over the top. Well a lot of

2410
01:50:56,680 --> 01:50:59,920
Speaker 7: times in the NFL now they're not throwing these thirty

2411
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:03,200
Speaker 7: forty yard deep balls and they're utilizing a quick pass

2412
01:51:03,280 --> 01:51:07,080
Speaker 7: game five and maybe fifteen yards at the most, And

2413
01:51:07,160 --> 01:51:10,080
Speaker 7: so that's kind of the value to safety position, especially

2414
01:51:10,400 --> 01:51:13,920
Speaker 7: when you're saying the safety's going to get up wards

2415
01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:17,680
Speaker 7: of ten fifteen million dollars per year. Teams aren't just

2416
01:51:18,000 --> 01:51:21,679
Speaker 7: willing to pay that, especially for safety like Justin Simmons,

2417
01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:25,080
Speaker 7: who has earned the right to get that much money

2418
01:51:25,120 --> 01:51:27,519
Speaker 7: based on what he's done throughout his entire career.

2419
01:51:28,560 --> 01:51:31,719
Speaker 1: The second consecutive offseason in a row for the Chicago

2420
01:51:31,760 --> 01:51:34,800
Speaker 1: Bears trading for a wide receiver. Last year, it was

2421
01:51:34,920 --> 01:51:38,479
Speaker 1: Dj Moore. This year Keenan Allen. It feels to me

2422
01:51:38,680 --> 01:51:40,960
Speaker 1: like the Bears are doing more for Caleb Williams than

2423
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:43,400
Speaker 1: they ever did for Justin Fields, just with a guy

2424
01:51:43,400 --> 01:51:45,320
Speaker 1: who last year was fit in the league and catches.

2425
01:51:45,360 --> 01:51:46,680
Speaker 1: And I know Keenanal's got a little bit of an

2426
01:51:46,720 --> 01:51:49,120
Speaker 1: injury history, but still even at thirty one, one of

2427
01:51:49,200 --> 01:51:50,679
Speaker 1: the best receivers in the NFL.

2428
01:51:52,240 --> 01:51:55,599
Speaker 7: Yeah, those are Justin Fields. This camp certainly feel that

2429
01:51:55,680 --> 01:51:59,200
Speaker 7: way now. Justin Fields in a help his case, because

2430
01:51:59,280 --> 01:52:01,880
Speaker 7: you look at his overall record, you look at some

2431
01:52:01,960 --> 01:52:05,360
Speaker 7: of his performances, and look at the way he's not

2432
01:52:05,479 --> 01:52:09,519
Speaker 7: really developed into a great pocket pass there. Now, I

2433
01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:12,400
Speaker 7: do believe that is somewhat of the Bear's fault. The

2434
01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:15,479
Speaker 7: offensive line has been suspect. They didn't really have a

2435
01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:18,759
Speaker 7: number one receiver until they got Dj Moore. Their running

2436
01:52:18,800 --> 01:52:22,800
Speaker 7: game has let a lot to be desired. But I

2437
01:52:22,840 --> 01:52:26,519
Speaker 7: think this new spot in Pittsburgh is a really good

2438
01:52:26,560 --> 01:52:29,639
Speaker 7: position for Justin Fields. He'll get to learn under Russell Wilson.

2439
01:52:29,680 --> 01:52:31,920
Speaker 7: Even though Russell Wilson isn't the same player as he

2440
01:52:32,240 --> 01:52:36,440
Speaker 7: once was, but he has experienced and has that veteran leadership,

2441
01:52:36,800 --> 01:52:40,080
Speaker 7: and in twenty twenty five at a time, Justin Fields

2442
01:52:40,120 --> 01:52:43,280
Speaker 7: can start and maybe blossom from what he's learned from

2443
01:52:43,320 --> 01:52:44,280
Speaker 7: in the past.

2444
01:52:44,479 --> 01:52:47,040
Speaker 1: You think Justin Field's how much so it's a sixth

2445
01:52:47,080 --> 01:52:49,760
Speaker 1: round pick now, it'll be a fourth round pick if

2446
01:52:49,760 --> 01:52:52,200
Speaker 1: he plays over fifty one percent of the snaps. What

2447
01:52:52,280 --> 01:52:53,719
Speaker 1: do you think that pick ends up being.

2448
01:52:54,720 --> 01:52:56,479
Speaker 7: It's going to be a sixth round pick because he's

2449
01:52:56,520 --> 01:52:58,080
Speaker 7: not going to play more than fifty one percent of

2450
01:52:58,200 --> 01:53:01,920
Speaker 7: snaps this year. He's gonna be the backup unless Russell

2451
01:53:01,960 --> 01:53:05,880
Speaker 7: Wilson gets hurt. Uh knock on wood that Tike will

2452
01:53:05,920 --> 01:53:07,040
Speaker 7: say a six round pick.

2453
01:53:07,400 --> 01:53:10,479
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, Tyler Dragon says it look forward to Russell

2454
01:53:10,479 --> 01:53:13,719
Speaker 1: Wilson in Pittsburgh. Justin Field's back up for the first

2455
01:53:13,720 --> 01:53:16,040
Speaker 1: time in his NFL career. But you know what, Tyler

2456
01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:19,040
Speaker 1: Dragon is never a backup on Martin and VJ. So

2457
01:53:19,120 --> 01:53:20,960
Speaker 1: thank you for joining us, my friend, and enjoy the

2468
01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:47,639
Speaker 1: Steelers just address their quarterback situation, but I'm pretty sure

2469
01:53:48,040 --> 01:53:51,000
Speaker 1: that this NFL team has the worst one in the league.

2470
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:54,080
Speaker 1: Martin v J, Fox Sports Radio, Martin White's VJ Husky

2471
01:53:54,120 --> 01:53:56,280
Speaker 1: coming to your life at the Tireck dot Com Studios.

2472
01:53:56,320 --> 01:53:59,439
Speaker 1: Wrapping it up today on a Saturday evening. Uh well

2473
01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:01,680
Speaker 1: even on the West coast night over there for you

2474
01:54:01,720 --> 01:54:04,800
Speaker 1: people on the East coast. But it was a good day,

2475
01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:07,680
Speaker 1: I'll have to say. But I just say this, the

2476
01:54:07,760 --> 01:54:11,160
Speaker 1: New York Giants, I think VJ, for my dollar, have

2477
01:54:11,240 --> 01:54:14,280
Speaker 1: d worst quarterback situation in the NFL right now. Yep,

2478
01:54:15,320 --> 01:54:18,120
Speaker 1: Because here's the rub. Drew Lock was going to be

2479
01:54:18,160 --> 01:54:23,680
Speaker 1: traded elsewhere, right or Drew, but he was told our

2480
01:54:23,760 --> 01:54:27,760
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider said on Thursday that

2481
01:54:27,840 --> 01:54:30,400
Speaker 1: Locke's one year deal with the Giants came after they

2482
01:54:30,439 --> 01:54:32,880
Speaker 1: sold him on the opportunity to compete to be the

2483
01:54:32,920 --> 01:54:40,440
Speaker 1: starter against Daniel Jones. Now, it's one thing if you

2484
01:54:40,680 --> 01:54:43,280
Speaker 1: draft a guy like I know Tyler Dragon just said

2485
01:54:43,320 --> 01:54:46,919
Speaker 1: the Giants might draft JJ or Pennant's or Nicks or whoever.

2486
01:54:47,880 --> 01:54:52,680
Speaker 1: It's another thing entirely if you were going after Drew Lock,

2487
01:54:52,720 --> 01:54:55,200
Speaker 1: who was the second round pick to begin with and

2488
01:54:55,280 --> 01:54:59,040
Speaker 1: has shown at two different spots that sure he might

2489
01:54:59,120 --> 01:55:02,760
Speaker 1: win a game or two, but it's not the starting

2490
01:55:02,840 --> 01:55:05,800
Speaker 1: caliber quarterback that people were making him out to be

2491
01:55:05,880 --> 01:55:09,040
Speaker 1: when he came out of the draft. No, and John

2492
01:55:09,080 --> 01:55:14,040
Speaker 1: Elway's track record of picking quarterbacks is suspect at best,

2493
01:55:14,800 --> 01:55:18,040
Speaker 1: I'll say, And now you have that, that is the

2494
01:55:18,040 --> 01:55:21,480
Speaker 1: competition now, Daniel Jones and Drew Locke. And like you

2495
01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:23,720
Speaker 1: said a minute ago, with Daniel Jones, there's forty five

2496
01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:27,840
Speaker 1: million regions why he'd more likely be the starter. That's

2497
01:55:27,920 --> 01:55:30,680
Speaker 1: just this has got to be the worst quarterback situation

2498
01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:31,320
Speaker 1: in football.

2499
01:55:31,640 --> 01:55:35,800
Speaker 2: I said a few weeks ago, this number sixth spot

2500
01:55:36,160 --> 01:55:38,240
Speaker 2: is huge. It really is, because it's going to tell

2501
01:55:38,280 --> 01:55:41,160
Speaker 2: you where the Giants are going, what they believe in,

2502
01:55:41,200 --> 01:55:44,520
Speaker 2: and where they feel like their team is leaning towards

2503
01:55:44,640 --> 01:55:48,000
Speaker 2: towards the future. If they somehow back out of this

2504
01:55:48,560 --> 01:55:51,000
Speaker 2: and let somebody else jump up here to possibly take

2505
01:55:51,040 --> 01:55:54,120
Speaker 2: a quarterback, say two and three doesn't go quarterback quarterback

2506
01:55:54,200 --> 01:55:56,520
Speaker 2: as a lot of people think will go, then this

2507
01:55:56,560 --> 01:55:58,640
Speaker 2: can be a lynchpin to the first round right here.

2508
01:55:58,680 --> 01:56:02,760
Speaker 2: But this quarterback situation, this quarterback room, uh you know

2509
01:56:03,240 --> 01:56:05,720
Speaker 2: they were. They started a guy off the street talking,

2510
01:56:05,800 --> 01:56:08,520
Speaker 2: still living at home, talking about his mom's chicken cutlets

2511
01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:10,440
Speaker 2: and she still makes his bed and stuff. And Tommy

2512
01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:13,520
Speaker 2: DeVito like they it's bad here and they better figure

2513
01:56:13,600 --> 01:56:16,680
Speaker 2: this out real fast, because we all know in the NFL,

2514
01:56:17,120 --> 01:56:23,160
Speaker 2: above anything else, if you do not have a QB.

2515
01:56:22,680 --> 01:56:26,040
Speaker 1: One, you have zero shot.

2516
01:56:26,440 --> 01:56:29,240
Speaker 2: You might make a push for the playoffs, but even

2517
01:56:29,280 --> 01:56:32,080
Speaker 2: if you get there, you're not gonna do nothing. No

2518
01:56:32,200 --> 01:56:35,200
Speaker 2: teams with no quarterbacks don't win playoff games, they don't

2519
01:56:35,200 --> 01:56:38,040
Speaker 2: go to conference championships, and they damn sure don't hold

2520
01:56:38,040 --> 01:56:39,840
Speaker 2: the Lombardi at the end of it, when it's all

2521
01:56:39,880 --> 01:56:42,320
Speaker 2: said and done, with the coffetti coming down. So they

2522
01:56:42,360 --> 01:56:44,640
Speaker 2: gotta they gotta tighten this up, man. I I like

2523
01:56:44,760 --> 01:56:49,880
Speaker 2: Tyler's piece pick thereof they might be going quarterback at

2524
01:56:49,920 --> 01:56:53,280
Speaker 2: six especially think about it, say two or three. I

2525
01:56:53,280 --> 01:56:55,880
Speaker 2: think Jayden Daniels from everything we're hearing, all right, two

2526
01:56:55,960 --> 01:56:58,680
Speaker 2: to the commanders. Three is still It would just be

2527
01:56:58,800 --> 01:57:01,520
Speaker 2: so patriot to back out of this and accumulate more

2528
01:57:01,560 --> 01:57:05,200
Speaker 2: picks and build and build Maos because Male's got tom

2529
01:57:05,240 --> 01:57:07,520
Speaker 2: He didn't got to have a quarterback right now. Mao's

2530
01:57:07,560 --> 01:57:10,320
Speaker 2: got time to build this thing. Some of these other

2531
01:57:10,360 --> 01:57:12,120
Speaker 2: teams kind of kind of do it now. I can

2532
01:57:12,160 --> 01:57:14,760
Speaker 2: see the Giants maybe having a pick of two guys

2533
01:57:14,880 --> 01:57:16,280
Speaker 2: by the time it gets hit them that they like

2534
01:57:16,360 --> 01:57:17,520
Speaker 2: for a quarterback number six.

2535
01:57:17,800 --> 01:57:20,240
Speaker 1: So then it would just what be a three way

2536
01:57:20,280 --> 01:57:24,120
Speaker 1: competition for QB one? Well, I guess four. No, don't

2537
01:57:24,200 --> 01:57:27,720
Speaker 1: let me discount Tommy DeVito and the chicken cutlets. So

2538
01:57:27,800 --> 01:57:29,600
Speaker 1: I got a four man competition if.

2539
01:57:29,440 --> 01:57:32,160
Speaker 2: They if they take a quarterback, it would be hard

2540
01:57:32,160 --> 01:57:33,880
Speaker 2: pressed for me to think that he's not starting to

2541
01:57:33,880 --> 01:57:36,200
Speaker 2: open and not start Excuse me, he is competing with

2542
01:57:36,280 --> 01:57:38,760
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, but he's Daniel's successor.

2543
01:57:39,280 --> 01:57:41,440
Speaker 1: He's Dan. And if Daniel craps to.

2544
01:57:41,400 --> 01:57:44,360
Speaker 2: Bed this season, he has bad games, he has bad moments,

2545
01:57:44,480 --> 01:57:46,560
Speaker 2: you already know you're gonna move off of him next year.

2546
01:57:46,760 --> 01:57:48,520
Speaker 2: I can see a rookie starting for the Giants at

2547
01:57:48,520 --> 01:57:51,280
Speaker 2: the quarterback. But if they take one this high, say

2548
01:57:51,320 --> 01:57:54,440
Speaker 2: Week nine, Week ten, say the Giants are two and seven,

2549
01:57:54,800 --> 01:57:57,600
Speaker 2: you know, three and eight, I can see him saying,

2550
01:57:57,600 --> 01:57:59,800
Speaker 2: all right, Daniel, it was a nice tries, been a

2551
01:57:59,880 --> 01:58:02,680
Speaker 2: night run. We goofed this up by drafting a duke quarterback.

2552
01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:04,920
Speaker 2: Let's let's let's let's start the kid. Let's get the

2553
01:58:05,000 --> 01:58:06,440
Speaker 2: kid and they let's get him ready, Let's see what

2554
01:58:06,480 --> 01:58:07,560
Speaker 2: he does for the rest of the year, and we'll

2555
01:58:07,560 --> 01:58:07,880
Speaker 2: move on.

2556
01:58:07,840 --> 01:58:10,600
Speaker 1: To the future. That might be bad vibes, because wasn't

2557
01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:13,680
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones also the sixth pick in the n NFL

2558
01:58:13,800 --> 01:58:16,240
Speaker 1: draft might have been. And if I'm not mistaken, I

2559
01:58:16,240 --> 01:58:18,800
Speaker 1: thought they moved he was the sixth pick in the draft.

2560
01:58:18,880 --> 01:58:19,640
Speaker 1: Yeah he was.

2561
01:58:19,920 --> 01:58:21,960
Speaker 2: It was just a bad It was like Mitchell Trubisky, right,

2562
01:58:21,960 --> 01:58:23,600
Speaker 2: it was just a bad pick. You gotta just own

2563
01:58:23,640 --> 01:58:26,080
Speaker 2: it and move on. But it was a bad pick. Yeah,

2564
01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:28,880
Speaker 2: I mean, he wasn't the best quarterback in the a

2565
01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:29,760
Speaker 2: SEC that year.

2566
01:58:29,920 --> 01:58:34,200
Speaker 1: No, no's less college football, but no, yeah, I just

2567
01:58:34,240 --> 01:58:37,040
Speaker 1: think that. But that's the thing that's crazy, is because

2568
01:58:38,920 --> 01:58:43,800
Speaker 1: they offered him that big contract and really all he

2569
01:58:43,920 --> 01:58:46,600
Speaker 1: did this year was get hurt, right, Like, he only

2570
01:58:46,680 --> 01:58:50,800
Speaker 1: played six games total. They paned, they panic, they had

2571
01:58:50,840 --> 01:58:53,040
Speaker 1: to either pay a running back or a quarterback. And

2572
01:58:53,120 --> 01:58:55,520
Speaker 1: this is where this is where we're listening to the win.

2573
01:58:55,880 --> 01:58:57,000
Speaker 1: We'll get you and hurt you.

2574
01:58:57,240 --> 01:58:59,760
Speaker 2: These front office people, these people making these decisions, don't

2575
01:58:59,760 --> 01:59:03,520
Speaker 2: think they they didn't hear that the QB position is devalued.

2576
01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:04,760
Speaker 1: Don't sign a cue.

2577
01:59:04,800 --> 01:59:06,640
Speaker 2: I mean if running back to kids me, don't sign

2578
01:59:06,680 --> 01:59:09,600
Speaker 2: a run No wrong, you should have signed the running back,

2579
01:59:09,840 --> 01:59:10,879
Speaker 2: and then look.

2580
01:59:10,680 --> 01:59:11,280
Speaker 1: What you would be.

2581
01:59:11,320 --> 01:59:14,080
Speaker 2: You'd be you'd be damn sure taking the guy now

2582
01:59:14,280 --> 01:59:16,920
Speaker 2: and putting him with Saquon and starting the rookie, bringing

2583
01:59:17,000 --> 01:59:19,120
Speaker 2: him in and even if Daniel's still there, you're not

2584
01:59:19,160 --> 01:59:21,840
Speaker 2: paying him forty million dollars a year. Though they failed

2585
01:59:21,880 --> 01:59:24,440
Speaker 2: to the whispers of the win that nobody pays a

2586
01:59:24,520 --> 01:59:27,760
Speaker 2: running back and you gotta pay your quarterback. Sometimes you

2587
01:59:27,800 --> 01:59:30,240
Speaker 2: don't guys, especially if he's not that good, If he

2588
01:59:30,280 --> 01:59:32,720
Speaker 2: ain't that damn good, fifteen touchdowns, that's the only steat

2589
01:59:32,760 --> 01:59:34,720
Speaker 2: I need to see. I'm not giving that guy forty

2590
01:59:34,760 --> 01:59:37,200
Speaker 2: million dollars. You gotta be kidding me. That's like what

2591
01:59:37,240 --> 01:59:38,360
Speaker 2: Shack said about Gobert.

2592
01:59:38,480 --> 01:59:41,840
Speaker 1: Two hundred and fifty million for eight points a night,

2593
01:59:42,240 --> 01:59:44,760
Speaker 1: like real talk, two hundred and fifty million for twelve

2594
01:59:44,800 --> 01:59:47,600
Speaker 1: boards and eight points a night. You gotta be kidding me.

2595
01:59:47,840 --> 01:59:51,879
Speaker 1: Forty million dollars for a quarterback to throw fifteen touchdown passes.

2596
01:59:52,480 --> 01:59:56,080
Speaker 1: Stop stop it. They'd screwed the thumb, screw this up themselves.

2597
01:59:56,240 --> 01:59:58,640
Speaker 1: I tell you what. As a Michigan fan, like I said,

2598
01:59:58,680 --> 02:00:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't think that I wouldn't take personally. I'm not

2599
02:00:01,280 --> 02:00:04,520
Speaker 1: in charge obviously of any NFL team, but I wouldn't

2600
02:00:04,520 --> 02:00:09,120
Speaker 1: take JJ nor Michael Pannix nor Bo Nicks in the

2601
02:00:09,160 --> 02:00:14,680
Speaker 1: first round. And I fear for JJ McCarthy's NFL career

2602
02:00:14,680 --> 02:00:17,160
Speaker 1: if the Giants take him at six. I really I

2603
02:00:17,240 --> 02:00:19,640
Speaker 1: do too. I feel for I fear for his career.

2604
02:00:19,680 --> 02:00:21,280
Speaker 1: I don't want him there if he goes in the

2605
02:00:21,280 --> 02:00:22,680
Speaker 1: first If he goes in the first round, which I

2606
02:00:22,720 --> 02:00:24,000
Speaker 1: which I think for sure he is.

2607
02:00:24,360 --> 02:00:25,920
Speaker 2: I would love to see. There's only two teams I

2608
02:00:25,920 --> 02:00:28,360
Speaker 2: would really really like to see JJ Waite. One might

2609
02:00:28,400 --> 02:00:30,520
Speaker 2: surprise some people out there because I've banged on their coach.

2610
02:00:30,560 --> 02:00:32,920
Speaker 2: Would be the Minnesota Vikings, and I would really love

2611
02:00:32,960 --> 02:00:35,960
Speaker 2: to see what Sean Payton could do it a JJ.

2612
02:00:35,840 --> 02:00:39,400
Speaker 1: McCarthy, you're the quarterback whisper. This kid's got the tools.

2613
02:00:39,440 --> 02:00:41,840
Speaker 2: Then you're the guy that should be able to shut

2614
02:00:41,880 --> 02:00:44,160
Speaker 2: all the detractors up three four years down the line.

2615
02:00:44,160 --> 02:00:46,680
Speaker 1: I would love to see him under Sean Payton. We'll see.

2616
02:00:46,720 --> 02:00:49,120
Speaker 1: But I know this, I'm a Michigan fan, and I'm

2617
02:00:49,160 --> 02:00:51,760
Speaker 1: glad I'm not a Giants fan because God Lee, I'm

2618
02:00:51,760 --> 02:00:55,440
Speaker 1: talking about mismanagement. But coming up next, a greatly managed
