Speaker 1: Michael jenkinst smooth. Oh, how you doing? I'm good? Your
Speaker 1: new father? I am a new father and I have
Speaker 1: to ask you this. Are you a kid guy? Are
Speaker 1: you a dog guy? You know what's funny. I had
Speaker 1: a dog for a long time. What kind a basset hound?
Speaker 1: You should have named them? Slow Pope? She was slow
Speaker 1: Josie was slow. They low energy.
Speaker 3: She went viral a few years ago and I started
Speaker 3: interacting with Chrissy Tigan on X. She was like, oh
Speaker 3: my god, I used to have baskets when I lived
Speaker 3: on Hawaii. So that one off for a couple of days.
Speaker 3: It was crazy because I did a video of her
Speaker 3: walking to get her bread next door. She passed away.
Speaker 3: And now I have a cat, So I've done both
Speaker 3: and I love my cat.
Speaker 2: One thing about cats, they are very aloof you don't
Speaker 2: They're low attention. You don't have to give cats any attention.
Speaker 2: And I think dogs would make them the best friend.
Speaker 2: They just they gonna follow you no matter what, no
Speaker 2: matter what, no mail and would I can get up
Speaker 2: and go to the kitchen, Here come the dog. I
Speaker 2: can get up and go to the bedroom. Here come
Speaker 2: the dog. But I did. I just did add a
Speaker 2: new family member. He's a Yorkie Shaw Terrier name so not.
Speaker 2: His name is Little Finger aka Peter Baileish all right,
Speaker 2: and he is full of energy.
Speaker 1: Listen for him to be five months old.
Speaker 2: He literally jumps off the floor onto the kitchen table
Speaker 2: any time he wats.
Speaker 1: Oh that puppy energy is crazy.
Speaker 2: No it's and he just he has no laws right now,
Speaker 2: so he eats and shoes up pretty much everything. So
Speaker 2: now I'm gonna be forced to bring him to work
Speaker 2: with me because every time I leave because I'm believe
Speaker 2: in putting my dogs in cages.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think it's just I don't like that
Speaker 1: makes me. I don't want to see any animal the cake. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So therefore I'm gonna be forced to bring old little
Speaker 2: Finger to work with me because if I don't, he's
Speaker 2: gonna chew my house up and spit it out. He's
Speaker 2: been on a mission to get kicked out since I
Speaker 2: got him there.
Speaker 4: So he's been running rogue as we speak, sounds like.
Speaker 1: He's running rope right, like, Oh my gosh, and he's
Speaker 1: gonna come here. No, I'm gonna tipt the studio. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tempt.
Speaker 2: Him because like I walk in the house sometimes and
Speaker 2: I'm like, how did he How did he get there?
Speaker 1: How did he get up there?
Speaker 2: So I'm a tempting to put some ring like cameras
Speaker 2: in the in the kitchen and in the living room,
Speaker 2: just so i can see how is he getting these
Speaker 2: things done? Like he puts his mind to something and
Speaker 2: he goes gets it. I put these treats right, you've
Speaker 2: been in the kitchen before.
Speaker 1: You know how high the cameras have been in the case.
Speaker 2: Put the treats on the counter, left out, went to
Speaker 2: the grocery store, came back to bag, was ches real
Speaker 2: loaded the floor. I'm like how, First of all, how
Speaker 2: did he get on the countle?
Speaker 1: That's what I want to know. How did he get
Speaker 1: on the counter. He tow it up and not just
Speaker 1: treats all over the ground.
Speaker 3: So one he says, you're going to be in the
Speaker 3: house here and walk outside and be like, how's that
Speaker 3: dog behind the wheel of my car?
Speaker 1: Listen, that's what type dude you. First of all, he's
Speaker 1: very smart. Yorkies are super stubborn and also very smart.
Speaker 2: Very smart and very athletic. So I got to find
Speaker 2: a way to stop a little finger.
Speaker 1: So does this mean you're a dog person?
Speaker 2: Then I've been a dog person my whole life, Like
Speaker 2: I have never had a cat.
Speaker 1: Funny thing, Okay, I got drafted here in No. One.
Speaker 2: Rod Gardner went in the first round. I went in
Speaker 2: the second round. Me and Rob became cool close. Rod
Speaker 2: is sixty three. If you look on his Instagram now
Speaker 2: two hundred and forty pounds, just that wrestler. He tells me,
Speaker 2: smooth man, I like cats, I don't like dogs. I
Speaker 2: was like, you know you sawt right, So this is
Speaker 2: what I did. I went back to Shihuahuas. I gifted
Speaker 2: one of the shahuahs to Rod because I was like, man,
Speaker 2: you need a dog. I refuse to come over your house,
Speaker 2: and you got to cass.
Speaker 1: You intentionally gave him a dog, intenly.
Speaker 2: Gave him a puppy. I paid one thousand dollars for
Speaker 2: this puppy. Damn Chico and Wheezy is what we named.
Speaker 2: My dog was Chico. His dog was weak. I gave
Speaker 2: him Weezy on a Monday. The next Monday, he returned
Speaker 2: them to me from the Jeffersons. Did you name that dog.
Speaker 1: After Okay Lituisey? I think he named after Lil Wayne.
Speaker 2: But he returned it seven days later like I can't
Speaker 2: do it, And I like what you mean you can't
Speaker 2: do it?
Speaker 1: He liked the dog using the bathroom. I like, that's
Speaker 1: what puppies do until you train them not to do that.
Speaker 1: He was like, I ain't had no dog. I don't
Speaker 1: want no dog.
Speaker 2: Dogs were nasty, So I took the dog back and
Speaker 2: I had a naghbor at the time. They had a
Speaker 2: little daughter, she was around six seven, fell in love
Speaker 2: with him. So I ended up giving and my neighbors
Speaker 2: wheeze it, and I kept Chico. Yeah, incredible, Yeah, it happens. Well,
Speaker 2: now we get loud with dogs and we get out
Speaker 2: and we got the hot ticket percent of my seat.
Speaker 2: Geek this summer Seageek has You're taken to the best
Speaker 2: live concerts in the d NV at Northwest Stadium. See Geek,
Speaker 2: the official ticketing partner of Northwest Stadium. How about some
Speaker 2: dogs we signed in the off season. You know what,
Speaker 2: I have loved.
Speaker 1: This off season because you know, I have always been
Speaker 1: one of these guys. Bring them on the beef. Where's
Speaker 1: the beef, where's the bacon?
Speaker 2: I know, even though I've been part of them shining
Speaker 2: rims out there, playing corner, playing wide receivers. I know
Speaker 2: where the game has won it. The game won in
Speaker 2: the trench. Yeah, with the big uglies. So I looked
Speaker 2: at all the guys we got. We got some mountain
Speaker 2: of Amen's. When I say I'm talking about all of them,
Speaker 2: they are huge, right, and they are setting up to
Speaker 2: say you, we're not getting pushed around anymore.
Speaker 1: Not only are we not getting pushed around, we're.
Speaker 2: Going to work so hard in free agency that when
Speaker 2: we go into the draft, we're drafted only best player available.
Speaker 1: That's what the great teams do.
Speaker 2: Nobody, any team that goes in into the draft, a
Speaker 2: lot of New York Giants with.
Speaker 1: Needs across the board. Across the board, your knees won't
Speaker 1: be met.
Speaker 2: You know that, right, Because I can take a quarterback
Speaker 2: at one that don't mean he gonna be a great
Speaker 2: quarterback I can take.
Speaker 1: I can take in the first pick of the second round.
Speaker 2: I can take a wide receiver of running back that
Speaker 2: don't make them fill the gap. So that's why the
Speaker 2: best teams go into the draft and make sure they
Speaker 2: go into the draft not needing to address this one position.
Speaker 1: So I'm not a prisoner to it.
Speaker 2: They do it so I can load up rooms, so
Speaker 2: I can pack rooms. Who is the best player available,
Speaker 2: I'm drafting him. I don't care who we already got.
Speaker 2: We adding talent to the team, and that's what you
Speaker 2: want to do.
Speaker 3: And they got talents and backup pieces on the line,
Speaker 3: and obviously trade for Larry Tunsul means that you're gonna
Speaker 3: protect Jay Daniels's.
Speaker 1: Blindside, but also it allows you to build depth. That's
Speaker 1: that's huge, Jeremy Tumnsel. It's the mountain that moves Larry Tunsel.
Speaker 2: Is that that security guard in the club that you
Speaker 2: look at one time and know he's gonna kick you out.
Speaker 2: This is the guy, This is the protective of all
Speaker 2: protect us. This is what you want. I don't know
Speaker 2: if you've seen him in person.
Speaker 1: I have not seen him yet, but this is how
Speaker 1: you're gonna look at him. Oh yeah, I just put
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even like make eye contact. I'd be like, wow, no,
Speaker 1: I'm won't look right hello sir. His hand, yes, just
Speaker 1: covered my whole hand in and hand for the risk.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: That reminds me, Am I talking about this earlier this week.
Speaker 1: This old school, but I remember you appreciate this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, years and years ago, Andre the Giant was performing
Speaker 3: not far from where I grew up, and so in
Speaker 3: the newspaper like, Andre the Giant is coming to town.
Speaker 1: So they in the newspaper.
Speaker 3: You open it up and there was a picture of
Speaker 3: his hand, of his hand and it was I remember
Speaker 3: as a kid putting it right there, and his palm
Speaker 3: was so much bigger than my whole hand, and I
Speaker 3: was like, that is the largest hand I've ever seen
Speaker 3: in my life.
Speaker 1: Remember the moment all of us do hate his babies?
Speaker 1: You just got chills. I did. Do you remember the
Speaker 1: moment that Hog Hogan body Sam Yes, andreda giant that
Speaker 1: wrestled many of three. I don't know, but we lost it.
Speaker 1: We lost it so bad. Me and my cousin just
Speaker 1: we started. We started a raw rumble in my Grandmama's
Speaker 1: living room went down like listen. First of all, nobody
Speaker 1: had picked him up before.
Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody had picked him up, like I thought Kamala
Speaker 2: was gonna be to pick him up.
Speaker 1: But nobody had picked the Kamala.
Speaker 2: Nobody had picked up andreda giant at the time. And
Speaker 2: when I seen Ho Hogan do it, and this is
Speaker 2: before he turned heel. This is the hero Ho Hogan
Speaker 2: it was. It was rememberable like the Jordan flu game.
Speaker 2: I hate to say it and I know rest, but
Speaker 2: it was legendary.
Speaker 1: When Hogan picked this moment of a man up, it
Speaker 1: was unbelievable. Do you remember when Mark Henry was in
Speaker 1: W W Hues, I do. Okay.
Speaker 3: So the guy that was his coach, because you know
Speaker 3: he was an Olympian, right, was Terry Todd. Terry Todd
Speaker 3: was one of my teachers at the University of Texas
Speaker 3: and he taught a class for football players called the
Speaker 3: History of Pro Wrestling. And he would play us WrestleMania's
Speaker 3: and like, all right, we're gonna watch WrestleMania three. It's
Speaker 3: when Hulk Hogan body slammed Andre the Giant, and then
Speaker 3: we take a multiple choice test on what we watched
Speaker 3: in WrestleMania.
Speaker 1: It was incredible, first of all, way for Texas to
Speaker 1: get there, at the least through school. That showed you
Speaker 1: I was the same. It was my one elective as
Speaker 1: a senior. Yeah, why was you in?
Speaker 3: Because I was almost done. The whole football team was
Speaker 3: in there. I was about done, So I had like
Speaker 3: one elective. I was like, I can finally take this class.
Speaker 3: It was the easiest class I've ever taken in my life,
Speaker 3: the History of pro Wrestling.
Speaker 1: We doesn't watch WrestleMania about who was in this class?
Speaker 1: Was it you and Roar Williams or somebody who was
Speaker 1: in this class? Which because we didn't have this class
Speaker 1: in it was remarkable.
Speaker 2: You know, the Ivy League of the South, we didn't
Speaker 2: have this wrestle mania in there. And by the way,
Speaker 2: any old heads out there, if you can name every
Speaker 2: cat on this shirt, I will.
Speaker 1: Send you a Washington hat. Okay. And everybody can't name
Speaker 1: cat on this. You can't name well, yes you can, Heathcliff.
Speaker 1: You can't Heathcliff. You know that. That's it. I can't
Speaker 1: be giving everybody else and just but we can't trust
Speaker 1: people no more because of Google. Right, I got it, Fred,
Speaker 1: and you just google it. I don't want you to
Speaker 1: do that. I want to do it.
Speaker 3: So some other guys that we signed, honey, y'all, but
Speaker 3: who are not wrestlers.
Speaker 1: Noah Brown, first of all, love this, by the way.
Speaker 2: Love he earned it, he sure did. And this is
Speaker 2: to pick up. And this is what this is what
Speaker 2: this friend child showing you. If you come here and
Speaker 2: you earn it, we'll reward.
Speaker 1: You can't beat that Michael Gallup signing. You know what.
Speaker 2: Everybody went from that room at the beginning of the
Speaker 2: year last year with the other guys we had saying
Speaker 2: were just not enough. Guys they proved to be enough.
Speaker 2: But now you've taken that room to a whole other level.
Speaker 2: And the d BO Samuels, Michael gall you're talking about
Speaker 2: Depp like you're talking about not giving I mean, cornerbacks
Speaker 2: a risk no matter what wide receivers in the game.
Speaker 3: And also Jeremy McNichols at running back, and I really
Speaker 3: love he earned it.
Speaker 1: He sure did, man, And this is a guy.
Speaker 3: I love guys like this who've been around for a while,
Speaker 3: maybe not household names, but they just keep finding a
Speaker 3: way and when they get their chances, their opportunities to
Speaker 3: make the most of it.
Speaker 1: I wish I was his agent. I would have him
Speaker 1: a McDonald's contract at no time. He wanted them grinders
Speaker 1: that make your team up. Like he's a grinder. He's
Speaker 1: a guy that.
Speaker 2: You give me a chance, I'm gonna go make a play.
Speaker 2: I love guys like that great. Sometimes it ain't about
Speaker 2: going side of other people, it's about resigning your own
Speaker 2: great job by them.
Speaker 1: Piece.
Speaker 3: What is it like when you're in the locker room,
Speaker 3: Because that's the one thing, as I've gotten orders, we
Speaker 3: always focus on the superstars, and I get that, but
Speaker 3: a football team is a team in depth is so
Speaker 3: important and when you have a guy like that. You
Speaker 3: look at you said, Man, that guy continues to find
Speaker 3: a way.
Speaker 1: He is a football He was a fighter. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: that's what you want on your team, especially this team.
Speaker 1: This team. You want to fight because you only good
Speaker 1: as the fifty third person on the roster. And they
Speaker 1: understand that.
Speaker 2: They understand when my number is called, I need to
Speaker 2: be ready to go. They understand that, Hey, when the
Speaker 2: superstar I ain't having a good game, I need to
Speaker 2: step in. I need to have that good game. I
Speaker 2: need to become a household name. The only way for
Speaker 2: me to do that is when the light is on me.
Speaker 2: I need to perform. And that's what they're doing.
Speaker 1: They find character guys that love to perform when the
Speaker 1: light's on.
Speaker 3: Defensively, yep, you got guys, a couple guys coming over
Speaker 3: from the Patriots and Jonathan Jones and Dietrich Wise and
Speaker 3: Brench Steel's right there because especially what you're talking about
Speaker 3: Dtrick Wise. So I didn't realize and the point.
Speaker 1: Of his brother played here, Daniel Wise, I forgot about that, listen.
Speaker 2: Man, Football is a lineage like they go, like, no, lie,
Speaker 2: when we do our application, Yep, we have to fill
Speaker 2: out of application. You do have to come by and
Speaker 2: they fail application when you fill it out the first night,
Speaker 2: and the first thing is on.
Speaker 1: Their full name. Of course, second question.
Speaker 2: Is do you have any reletives that have played pro
Speaker 2: sports period?
Speaker 1: They want up.
Speaker 2: They won't know it's that bloodline there. And since I
Speaker 2: was the first smoop, I think I had an unk
Speaker 2: in the Olympics.
Speaker 1: But no, they want to know that lineage.
Speaker 2: And we got a guy and Daniel Wise, there's a
Speaker 2: mountain mimit of a man that's a captain of a team.
Speaker 2: You notice free time captain. You notice this is what
Speaker 2: they like. They like leaders, and he brings that.
Speaker 1: Jonathan Jones. I think people don't understand what we're getting
Speaker 1: in him.
Speaker 2: We're getting a guy that could play all over the
Speaker 2: defensive backfield. We're getting a guy that been there, done that,
Speaker 2: two time Super Bowl winner. He knows how the yellow
Speaker 2: brick rode, he knows what at the end at the
Speaker 2: yellowbridge rope. He understands the game. I just love what
Speaker 2: Adam Peter is doing. He's just not going out there
Speaker 2: getting the biggest names possible. He's going out there getting
Speaker 2: guys that actually fit the culture and fit the locker
Speaker 2: room perfect.
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about Javon kinlock No text me.
Speaker 1: I know we talked a little bit about.
Speaker 3: Him line week, but you know, he's the guy who
Speaker 3: hasn't reached his potential and just yet.
Speaker 1: And I love that he's got a ceiling.
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, I can say I love the fact that
Speaker 2: he hasn't reached his potential yet. Every guy that you
Speaker 2: get doesn't have to be at the peak of his
Speaker 2: game already. Every guy that you get doesn't. For example,
Speaker 2: Philadelphia took a flyer on Josh Sweat coming out of college.
Speaker 1: I was very high on Sweat. Everybody knew he had
Speaker 1: a knee problem.
Speaker 2: They said, we're gonna be patient with this, right because
Speaker 2: once we get him to the point where he can play,
Speaker 2: it's gonna be peak performance. And hence they went out
Speaker 2: and did it well. This is the same thing with
Speaker 2: Ken Law is he was you know, he was very ranked,
Speaker 2: very high, and came out in the draft, started his
Speaker 2: career kind of slow, in which everybody don't. Is not
Speaker 2: an instant hit time you get lead. Some guys need
Speaker 2: time to learn how to be a pro, learn how
Speaker 2: to dominate in their own way inside of the defensive call.
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna get everything from Ken Law because
Speaker 2: I always like stories too. A guy that was homeless
Speaker 2: on the streets of DC, he growing up, now he's
Speaker 2: at the top. Don't think this homengry dog ain't gonna
Speaker 2: forget about them lonely nights. Don't think that he ain't
Speaker 2: gonna love to represent Washington. Don't think that he ever
Speaker 2: will forget the team that basically set him up for life.
Speaker 2: When he comes to money.
Speaker 1: Know that home gred dog gonna bite somebody.
Speaker 3: And there's something about coming home, you know, it's sort
Speaker 3: of like, maybe it's not exactly the same. I know
Speaker 3: you were born in DC, but this is your home.
Speaker 3: It's like when you were in Minnesota, you wanted to
Speaker 3: come and you wanted.
Speaker 2: To come back home, Sitt And I told him up there,
Speaker 2: I love Minnesota, I love the city.
Speaker 1: I love what you've done for me. But I actually
Speaker 1: want to go back home.
Speaker 2: Like I felt like if the best football player from
Speaker 2: me happens in Washington and I got nothing to explain why.
Speaker 2: It ain't that I'm just so unhappy here. It just
Speaker 2: feels like I want to be back with Coach Gibbs.
Speaker 2: That was my thing. I want to be back with
Speaker 2: coach Gibbs. I want to be back with Greg Williams.
Speaker 2: I want to be back with my teammates, my brothers.
Speaker 2: So therefore I had to go upstairs and orchestrate that thing.
Speaker 2: So coming back home sometimes for the best. And I
Speaker 2: think with this guy, he's represented like he gonna always
Speaker 2: feel like I got to play a little bit harder
Speaker 2: than everybody else on this team because I'm from this city,
Speaker 2: just like Lamont Roach.
Speaker 1: I represent this city, right.
Speaker 2: So I you fight a little harder, you know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying, You fight a little harder. And by the way,
Speaker 2: we interviewed him before that massive supposedly upset. I know
Speaker 2: they stolen did it, but guess what we know the
Speaker 2: politics of box box.
Speaker 1: You know it's you see this all the time, but
Speaker 1: guess what they do it logically because Lamont roaches in company,
Speaker 1: he ain't the guy that put them butts in his seat.
Speaker 1: Tank was.
Speaker 2: So therefore, if it's that close, we're gonna keep the
Speaker 2: guy that keep putting these butts in his seat.
Speaker 1: We even gonna keep him unblemish.
Speaker 2: We're gonna do something until they feel like you just
Speaker 2: go take it by knocking him out, right, But we
Speaker 2: as Officionadol's that's watching the fight.
Speaker 1: No, that roach won that fight for DC. He won
Speaker 1: that fight for DC.
Speaker 3: It's like all things being equal, we gotta go with
Speaker 3: the more popular guy right now. You have to keep
Speaker 3: those ticket receipts coming in and then once you knock
Speaker 3: him out, then you get the time.
Speaker 2: But that's why Tanker's in the rush to get this rematch, right,
Speaker 2: That's why he's in the rush to get this rematch.
Speaker 1: He wanted to get that unblemished.
Speaker 2: And when he took that knee, so he very glad
Speaker 2: they wont Sugar Ray Fred because sugar.
Speaker 1: Rate Fred, he would have took that knee. I would
Speaker 1: have snuck him right then, right in the jaw.
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you, I feel like he was robbed.
Speaker 2: But great entertainment, great fight, and I love boxing. But
Speaker 2: boxing has to get a commissioner. Boxer hasn't need a structure.
Speaker 2: The ain't a white needs to take over boxing like
Speaker 2: they did the USC. They need the best fighting the
Speaker 2: best at all time. Like I'm tired of people being
Speaker 2: able to fly may whether they self through a career, right,
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, just dodging people fighting him
Speaker 2: at the right time.
Speaker 1: No, get it to where it used to be. Boxing
Speaker 1: for a long time was.
Speaker 3: The most popular sports. A big boxing event back in
Speaker 3: the day just dwarfed everything. When you had a true
Speaker 3: prize fighter. Yeah, and you had three or four fighters
Speaker 3: who were always like in the public.
Speaker 2: Contract, always there. And we talked about the best walking.
Speaker 2: Is it baseball with your with your music? Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: is it boxing? I knew Tank was gonna lose when
Speaker 2: Jim Jones and Juice and Tanna walked in with them
Speaker 2: just dirty old men. I knew then that he had lost.
Speaker 2: And the month came in by hisself. Then, well, I
Speaker 2: used to love watching Mike Tyson where that uh just
Speaker 2: to that tile, he just cut a hole in.
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, he's gonna kill somebody
Speaker 1: out here.
Speaker 2: Like, come on, man, if you're boxing, you're coming in
Speaker 2: here with all these shiny things.
Speaker 1: And then this dude just walk in with a tile.
Speaker 1: Things have changed.
Speaker 3: Who just gotta walks in with the mask and that
Speaker 3: had the heavy garb Davantae Waller, Yes and so interviewed
Speaker 3: Devonte Is a few years as super nice guy. But
Speaker 3: it's weird to watch the progression from Tyson walking in.
Speaker 1: With towel from the holiday inn right and from the
Speaker 1: local motel cites this was not like a designer time,
Speaker 1: this was a dirty old hused tole that he probably
Speaker 1: used the training right. He's like, I just got out
Speaker 1: of show you the towel on. Yeah, yeah, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna whoop you. You rubbed your face. You be like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm about to get whooped.
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk to Bram Brad Weinstein, of course, voice
Speaker 3: the commander boys something.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the draft.
Speaker 3: Also, make sure you call us, leave us a voicemail
Speaker 3: seven oh three seven two six seven four one nine.
Speaker 3: You can email us as well, Washington get loud at
Speaker 3: gmail dot com. We're gonna talk with Brim about the draft. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but you've made a point to say, which I think
Speaker 3: is a great point.
Speaker 1: Do you draft for me? Do you have the best athlete?
Speaker 3: Ideally you just get the best player you can available.
Speaker 2: Yes, and only the great GMS go out and try
Speaker 2: to do this, and the great GM say I cannot
Speaker 2: do that, go best play available if I still got
Speaker 2: holes in the roster.
Speaker 1: So what I need to.
Speaker 2: Do in the free agent period is feel these holes
Speaker 2: in this roster. So when we transition to the draft,
Speaker 2: we're not looking at draft needs. We're looking at highest grade,
Speaker 2: all right, highest graded person available. Think about it, Philadelphia've
Speaker 2: been doing it for the last five years with Hoyi Rosemen.
Speaker 1: He was not supposed to get Jaylen Carter, all right,
Speaker 1: he fell to him.
Speaker 2: Run the ticket up, best play available, Nola Smill, best
Speaker 2: player available, run it up, Jordan Davis, best player available,
Speaker 2: run it up.
Speaker 1: Do we need more d linemen? Don't matter? Run it up?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 2: All right, we donna draft Quinn Mitchell right in the
Speaker 2: first round. Who's the best player available? Left Coop with
Speaker 2: the gen we just put somebody in their room, don't matter,
Speaker 2: best played available, Go get him, put him in the room.
Speaker 1: Pack the rooms.
Speaker 2: That's what you want to do as a great GM.
Speaker 2: You want best play available at all times. You don't
Speaker 2: care room you packing, You want them. You want some
Speaker 2: rooms overpacked. That's how you get leveraged. That's how you
Speaker 2: get depth, and that's how you get trade bait. Right there,
Speaker 2: right now, New England is taking calls on Joe Milton
Speaker 2: because guess what, they had took a quarterback and took
Speaker 2: another quarter back.
Speaker 1: Right, So packing rooms is what you do. So it's
Speaker 1: an interesting bounce because you do want to pack room.
Speaker 1: But also there are needs that are real things, but
Speaker 1: you don't want them to be needs.
Speaker 2: You don't want to know by the time I get
Speaker 2: to the draft, right, I don't want to go in
Speaker 2: here and be a prisoner of needs, because then it's
Speaker 2: gonna force me to take a player only because I
Speaker 2: need that position, not because.
Speaker 1: I need that player.
Speaker 3: And also I think we have to remember too, like
Speaker 3: edge is a need, like this team needs an edge, right,
Speaker 3: But also it's March right now. Yeah, so there's plenty
Speaker 3: of time between now and the season for things.
Speaker 1: What about the second third wave of free agency? Like
Speaker 1: people forget.
Speaker 2: About this because some teams gonna draft a player, they
Speaker 2: gonna release some wildly veteran, right, So some things you
Speaker 2: need to be patient. You don't get a Michael Gallup
Speaker 2: because you ran out there. You got a Michael Gallup
Speaker 2: because you were patient.
Speaker 1: And think about it.
Speaker 2: Most our moved just off season has been more trades
Speaker 2: than free agency.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So he's looking at the free agency board and be like, Okay,
Speaker 2: that player, that player, maybe this player, but no, I
Speaker 2: can't find the player I want.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this free agency, and I'm not gonna overpay.
Speaker 2: For him, So I'm gonna go give up some and
Speaker 2: I'm gonna trade to get the guy. Nobody even knew
Speaker 2: Laramy Thomson was available, right, Nobody had ever talked about
Speaker 2: him being available.
Speaker 1: Now we knew Debo was available, right, But Larry, we
Speaker 1: had no idea.
Speaker 2: No one of the top taw becaus in football because
Speaker 2: they don't come available.
Speaker 1: That's the way it goes.
Speaker 2: But if you're smart and you roster watching and you're
Speaker 2: saying to yourself, that can't pay everybody. Did you notice
Speaker 2: the day after we traded for Laramie Tompson, Derek Stingley
Speaker 2: JUNR got paid.
Speaker 1: He sure did.
Speaker 2: But they couldn't pay Derek Stingley with Tonsons still on
Speaker 2: the roster. So that just shows you the high IQ
Speaker 2: of mister Peters. That's why I say, let grandma cook.
Speaker 3: And also I love that you said be patient because
Speaker 3: you can't overpay or overextend yourself and be desperate in
Speaker 3: the moment.
Speaker 2: You let things play out. Let it play out. And
Speaker 2: that's why I say every year we see three or.
Speaker 1: Four Pro Bowlers released after the draft because they found
Speaker 1: their cheaper replacement.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we see it every year, and I love that
Speaker 2: he's just not going out here and giving DK metcab
Speaker 2: for one hundred and fifty million dollars stuff like that.
Speaker 1: I love DK. Yeah, I think it's little od pay
Speaker 1: because that's what free agency is.
Speaker 2: It's a bidding war. It's like shopping for a house.
Speaker 2: House hit the market for seven hundred. By time me
Speaker 2: and five families get through bedding on it, they said,
Speaker 2: ain't fifty.
Speaker 1: How did it get here? It's not even worth for
Speaker 1: eight fifty. It got here because she said five more
Speaker 1: dollars than him. I said five more.
Speaker 2: Dollars than up, And before you know it, we are
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty dollar. I'm gonna with draw my
Speaker 2: name out of this.
Speaker 1: So it's like you've been there, I've been there, Come
Speaker 1: on about it. Just being in on the house in
Speaker 1: northern Virginia.
Speaker 2: You know that you're going to overpay sometime because not
Speaker 2: because of the house, because.
Speaker 1: Of the people that being against you.
Speaker 2: They gonna keep fighting to get what they want, and
Speaker 2: that's how prices go up with That's what free agency is.
Speaker 2: Free agency is a frenzy of we started here and
Speaker 2: we ended here because if you got four or five
Speaker 2: teams going against each other, the price is only gonna
Speaker 2: go up. So free agency is the classic time to overpay.
Speaker 1: Like you're gonna overpay everything. Yeah, Like, who got it right?
Speaker 2: I say that Cincinnati paying Jamar Chase what they did,
Speaker 2: they got it right.
Speaker 1: But I don't think you had to pay Ta Higgins
Speaker 1: all that they pay Tea a lot. That's too much.
Speaker 1: I mean, Jamar, you had to Jamar. That's where he slotted, Yes,
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty million dollars in one room, and
Speaker 1: they still potentially got to pay Trey Hendrickson.
Speaker 3: They can't play track right, they can't pay truck dealing,
Speaker 3: and they can't.
Speaker 2: Hold them hostage no more either, because now we know
Speaker 2: on the outside looking in, you can't pay him right,
Speaker 2: We're not finna give you a first round, second round
Speaker 2: for him when eventually you're gonna have to release him anyway.
Speaker 1: Why would I.
Speaker 2: Give up something when you can't pay him? He either
Speaker 2: gonna hold out? Are you gonna have to release him?
Speaker 2: I know, I know your situation now, so I'm gonna
Speaker 2: be patient because you'd have just spent two hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty million in one room.
Speaker 1: Now. I know you want to keep Joe Burrow happy,
Speaker 1: but man, it's a lot for two receivers, and don't
Speaker 1: forget his deal.
Speaker 2: So on offense right now, those three guys make up
Speaker 2: four hundred millions ridiculous.
Speaker 3: I believe that those three take up more the salary
Speaker 3: cap than any other three players than.
Speaker 1: Any other team. Yeah, so you got to realize three
Speaker 1: fourths of your money it's on three players. Great job, Cincinnati.
Speaker 1: We don't have to worry about you here. Guys, come
Speaker 1: on here.
Speaker 4: I think I think they're good. Yeah, I can hear
Speaker 4: myself sometimes I have to check.
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, in case you guys didn't notice, we did
Speaker 5: get a table for Janks.
Speaker 1: Yes, I was gonna mention that.
Speaker 4: Major upgrade here.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you love them.
Speaker 1: Thanks to Cayla for bringing it out.
Speaker 4: Cala built it herself.
Speaker 1: Yes, she loves woodworking, exactly working.
Speaker 4: That's how much we care about you and getting you
Speaker 4: a table.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Look how easy this. Well, I'm glad the
Speaker 1: fans brought it up. There's a whole discussion about it.
Speaker 1: I was like, man's attention to detail like Jinx is
Speaker 1: just on the disgrace.
Speaker 5: I appreciate that that they noticed the SIGs and sometimes
Speaker 5: I don't, and so we were really quick to meet
Speaker 5: that adjustment. No Janks just wanted a table and Bob
Speaker 5: we could get it to. Yeah, we want to get
Speaker 5: into our voicemails and emails. Let's do this and any.
Speaker 6: Smooth ladies first, guys, been a fan ever since Martin riffing.
Speaker 7: Man, I've seen the Super Bowl game and it was
Speaker 7: on from there.
Speaker 6: Uh just want to say I thank you guys are
Speaker 6: having the podcast.
Speaker 7: Let us know what's going on. You guys are just also.
Speaker 6: Gonna keep it going. Commanders, Command Center, everything.
Speaker 7: Man. I love it all. Man, It's all good.
Speaker 6: But smoop, I want to ask you one thing, man,
Speaker 6: what's going on with these DC dependents.
Speaker 7: Do this year?
Speaker 6: He didn't look so good last year. Man, it just
Speaker 6: didn't work out and didn't pan out. So what you
Speaker 6: think is gonna go on with this year? They brought
Speaker 6: him back, so we're gonna see what's gonna happen. Man, thinks.
Speaker 7: I love you guys on here. Man, y'all do real
Speaker 7: good job. Man. I appreciate y'all.
Speaker 1: Appreciate you, man, and I can I get to go.
Speaker 6: See one of the games. Maybe this year, if not,
Speaker 6: possibly next year. But I really would love to go
Speaker 6: be a fan.
Speaker 7: Sit ninety one ninety two when they wanted.
Speaker 6: And man, I just love to be in the stadium,
Speaker 6: never being seen the Skins play in Charlotte because I'm
Speaker 6: from North Carolina. Okay, I just want to know, man,
Speaker 6: and what's.
Speaker 7: The what's the future gonna look like for this year?
Speaker 7: What we're gonna do this year? We got to be
Speaker 7: stacked up. Look like the defense is gonna look a
Speaker 7: little bit better.
Speaker 6: We got some run stoppers, so I'm hoping it's gonna
Speaker 6: be a great year.
Speaker 7: We double up from last year, and let's go win
Speaker 7: a bowl.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 7: Appreciate you, God, thank you.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Man. Did he ask me about the DC
Speaker 1: Defenders first? Right to that?
Speaker 2: Yes, because I'm I'm a fan of the Defenders. I
Speaker 2: go to every home game. I am basically the mascot
Speaker 2: of the My coach, Greg Williams is the defensive court.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that I support him most definitely. I
Speaker 2: go to every game. Montae Nicholson, a couple of X
Speaker 2: players didn't play for the team, DJ swearing to that
Speaker 2: place for that team. I support all of these guys,
Speaker 2: So I'm always at the defensive DC Defenders game, and
Speaker 2: I must say, before we got back on track, they
Speaker 2: were the best football team in the city.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they represented the city.
Speaker 2: And Jenson, you know you're gonna have to go with me,
Speaker 2: because until you see this beer snake, you haven't say
Speaker 2: we have to go.
Speaker 1: You haven't seen fan of them until you can gave
Speaker 1: your cup up to be a part.
Speaker 2: And like they say, your cup can't be a part
Speaker 2: of the beer snake into the beer it's gone. But
Speaker 2: I think the DC Defender is gonna be a good
Speaker 2: team this year. They might have a chance to win
Speaker 2: this thing. And this year they pushed it to the
Speaker 2: brink last year. They're going to be a good team.
Speaker 2: And the fan base they shows you how rabbit this
Speaker 2: fan base is for football. Their attendance is off the chain.
Speaker 2: I enjoy Audie Field, I enjoy the DC Defenders, and
Speaker 2: they're gonna have a good team this year.
Speaker 1: I'm a Greg I'm a g dub guy UFL preview. Yeah,
Speaker 1: most definitely man ball is football.
Speaker 2: And I had already said when I was young and
Speaker 2: I would watch guys get cut friends because you just
Speaker 2: one thing I can say about this year that kind
Speaker 2: of I mean this time of the year. That makes
Speaker 2: it hard is the locker room. You had like ninety
Speaker 2: eighty dudes in there. Yeah, we know, like thirty gonna
Speaker 2: get cut thirty five. Some of these your friends, they
Speaker 2: won't get to live their dream no more. So having
Speaker 2: this minor league system gives them a chance to rebound
Speaker 2: and get a chance to live that dream again. So
Speaker 2: I had already felt bad because the NBA always had
Speaker 2: the G League, the baseball always had the miners, and
Speaker 2: we never had nothing. The closer thing we got to
Speaker 2: a minor league system was NFL Europe.
Speaker 1: Do you remember that? Absolutely? That's how I got the
Speaker 1: Barcelona go to support some of my family that was
Speaker 1: playing football. I know that you spoil your friends in
Speaker 1: that way.
Speaker 2: Why not come on, man, and if you're a sports guy,
Speaker 2: you already love sports, so you might as well go
Speaker 2: like support people.
Speaker 1: And just right here in the city anyway, why not.
Speaker 2: Like I'm DC everything. That's why I say right now,
Speaker 2: we in a gap. People were in a gap called
Speaker 2: the District of Champions. It ain't called the District of
Speaker 2: Columbia no more. We got one more piece to get
Speaker 2: and thank Lord that the Wizards are doing everything they
Speaker 2: can to make sure we get it.
Speaker 1: They stinking all right.

Speaker 2: flag sweep steaks.
Speaker 1: I didn't win it. I need to see.
Speaker 2: Alie s stopball is going to be take him out
Speaker 2: the game, all right, because I could see it right now,
Speaker 2: and he from Maine. Just they're just holding him up
Speaker 2: like just the baby from Maine. And I could just
Speaker 2: see Cooper flag signe the Washington Wizards and that flag
Speaker 2: just waving in the background.
Speaker 1: Just a new American hero. And guess what the Nationals
Speaker 1: with James Woods there, guys, they're on the there, younger town,
Speaker 1: the Washington commanders is on the up. And also now

Speaker 1: Should I say hell Noah?
Speaker 4: You guys won't want to miss it.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: We got to bring in brim talking a little draft as promise,
Speaker 3: we bring in the voice of the Cranders, Bram Winstein.
Speaker 3: Now I to see Bram during the off season. So
Speaker 3: we're talking a little free agency, a little draft here.
Speaker 1: Bram.
Speaker 3: First of all, what have you been doing with your
Speaker 3: time now? You're not calling games? Yeah, it's free time.
Speaker 8: Now, sleeping over the emotional ride. But it's marked some
Speaker 8: officially bored Uh. Yeah, so I'm ready for this. Invite
Speaker 8: me more often I am bored out of my mind.
Speaker 1: We were just talking about this.
Speaker 2: This is the dark spot for all like football officionados
Speaker 2: right now because it's.
Speaker 1: Just no football there. But I'm sure you needed some
Speaker 1: time to.
Speaker 2: Get your voice back because you had some great calls
Speaker 2: this year. What do you expect us to do in
Speaker 2: the draft that now that we've added some key cogs
Speaker 2: and free agency. Do you feel like I feel that
Speaker 2: some the free agencies that we brought in here makes
Speaker 2: us go best play available in the draft instead of
Speaker 2: addressing need.
Speaker 8: Yes, the fact that they haven't gotten a premier edge rusher,
Speaker 8: although I'm not really sure how they're using Javon kinlaw yet.
Speaker 8: Like I think that's a kind of an open question
Speaker 8: of like, if you look at this group that's really deep,
Speaker 8: are they rethinking how they're going to set up an edge,
Speaker 8: and if they are, then maybe that makes us feel
Speaker 8: a little differently about where the draft is or who
Speaker 8: they would try to go acquire at what would be
Speaker 8: a typical position. So, without really knowing the answer to that,
Speaker 8: that feels like.
Speaker 9: An opportunity for them.
Speaker 8: I still think they need playmakers on both sides of
Speaker 8: the ball, and specifically on offense. It feels like they've
Speaker 8: decided to go in the direction at tight end to
Speaker 8: run it back. That makes sense to me, But at
Speaker 8: running back, at wide receiver, where there's still room I
Speaker 8: think to improve the position group as a whole. At
Speaker 8: running back, where I think there's room to improve the
Speaker 8: position group as a whole. But large like to answer
Speaker 8: your question, I think you're right, like I think what's
Speaker 8: changed here is is I don't think they're taking a
Speaker 8: tackle any longer in the draft, which was one of
Speaker 8: the spots that I thought that they might take in
Speaker 8: the first or second round. I would doubt that now.
Speaker 8: But that's about the only ones I think. Everything else
Speaker 8: is pretty much opened up.
Speaker 2: So you say in the wide receiver room kind of
Speaker 2: brings up question marks. Even though you got Terry, you
Speaker 2: got Dbo, you resigned Noah Brown, now you just signed
Speaker 2: Michael Gallup.
Speaker 1: I think that's actually a pretty deep room as it goes.
Speaker 2: But if you want to ask some college youth, I understand,
Speaker 2: especially with this being one of the best running back
Speaker 2: classes that I haven't seen probably like ten years, I
Speaker 2: can see why you say, let's ask some running back depth.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I look at the running like Ashton Genty's not gonna
Speaker 8: be available to them at twenty nine.
Speaker 9: That's not going to happen.
Speaker 8: But there are others you know that I think like
Speaker 8: we could go through, Yeah, that really stand out. This
Speaker 8: is a very deep running back class. Unlike last year,
Speaker 8: where there were premier running backs on the open market,
Speaker 8: if you were willing to pay for them, you could
Speaker 8: go get That's not the case obviously this year. So
Speaker 8: I think it's a possibility, and I do believe that
Speaker 8: coming into the season, there were a couple of things
Speaker 8: that I think, if we were being honest about, the
Speaker 8: roster really needed to be improved. And this Laramie Tunseel
Speaker 8: trade really changed everything for me. I what really opened
Speaker 8: the door for everything else that we're talking about now
Speaker 8: to happen. Bringing him in allows them to move Coleman
Speaker 8: to wherever they deemed that he should be guard, right tackle,
Speaker 8: whatever that may be. Restructuring that the Andrew Wiley allows
Speaker 8: some flexibility with him to play guard until Sam Cosby
Speaker 8: comes back, maybe a flex swing tackle for them, And.
Speaker 9: So the door's been opened.
Speaker 8: Differently, I think to look to these other position groups,
Speaker 8: and I agree with you the running back position is
Speaker 8: really deep with what appears to be difference makers, so
Speaker 8: I'm not sure that that's not the direction they go
Speaker 8: with the first or second round pick, Graham.
Speaker 3: How do you balance that out between Ideally, you get
Speaker 3: the best player out there, you find a way to
Speaker 3: get him on your roster, and maybe there's someone you
Speaker 3: don't want to overdraft, but it fits a very specific
Speaker 3: need that you have to have or that you really want.
Speaker 3: It's a very tricky thing. I mean, this is what
Speaker 3: Adam Peters gets paid to do. But how do you
Speaker 3: balance those two things when you're right there at twenty nine?
Speaker 8: I think by doing what they did with the Tunsil
Speaker 8: trade really more than anything, or the debo trade, where
Speaker 8: they addressed what were clear voids ahead of the draft,
Speaker 8: I think that's what opens the door for you to
Speaker 8: take best player available, not digen Hoold into well, we
Speaker 8: have to get this, so we might as well take
Speaker 8: a chance and put unreasonable expectations on somebody to come
Speaker 8: in and fill a hole that we need. This is
Speaker 8: why I've liked what they've done in free agency. I
Speaker 8: think they had a lot of holes to deal with.
Speaker 8: I think they were still in year two of a rebuild.
Speaker 8: But because Jade Daniels had the season he had, because
Speaker 8: they have a chemistry in this room and a culture
Speaker 8: that's been built very very quickly, the windows open very
Speaker 8: differently than I think most teams at this stage of
Speaker 8: what would be what they're calling a recalibration and what
Speaker 8: I think some people call a rebuild. I love what
Speaker 8: they've done because they addressed what I don't know that
Speaker 8: people were pointing at as maybe the biggest prominent issue
Speaker 8: for them offensive line. But I love that they went
Speaker 8: and took a swing for the fences for it because
Speaker 8: I agree with that sentiment that that needed to be addressed,
Speaker 8: especially in light of the Cosme injury, because without him
Speaker 8: knowing exactly when he's going to be back and exactly
Speaker 8: what he's going to be on the field, it is
Speaker 8: another starter They were going to have to deal with
Speaker 8: in some way or in some form until he's ready
Speaker 8: and up and going. And so this deal has a
Speaker 8: trickle down effect on literally everything for them. It's the
Speaker 8: one move that they I love Devo too. It's the
Speaker 8: one real move that they made that I think allows
Speaker 8: them the flexibility of what we're talking about, which is,
Speaker 8: let's just get to twenty nine.
Speaker 9: Let's see what our options are.
Speaker 8: It's possible one of these quarterbacks is there and someone
Speaker 8: wants to trade up and they can recoup some of
Speaker 8: this draft capital back and move back and still get
Speaker 8: a really good player. That's a distinct possibility to me.
Speaker 8: And in that case, if we're talking about a position
Speaker 8: like running back that's really deep where you could get
Speaker 8: really good players probably in the s round as well
Speaker 8: as late in the first round.
Speaker 1: Well, the Navy, you take.
Speaker 9: That chance, and you drop back a little bit.
Speaker 8: We're just in a position now because in my opinion,
Speaker 8: of that Tunsil trade to not have to overthink exactly
Speaker 8: who we're gonna take, or say we have to take
Speaker 8: this position group, I think it's opened the door for
Speaker 8: them to be flexible at twenty nine.
Speaker 2: First of all, Bram Nobody wants to talk about the
Speaker 2: fact that the draft is a crapshoot. No matter if
Speaker 2: you're picking number one, are you kicking two hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty six? You don't know what you're going to get
Speaker 2: from these guys. Just because there was great college players
Speaker 2: do not make them great pro players. I am a
Speaker 2: product of getting drafted best player available. I was in
Speaker 2: the second round and I got through in the room
Speaker 2: with Dale Green, Dion Sanders, and Champ Bailey, and I'm
Speaker 2: a better cornerback for it. So I know as a
Speaker 2: baby of best player available and watching Philadelphia do it
Speaker 2: for the last four years, they get Jalen Carter because
Speaker 2: they went best play available. So I think when you're
Speaker 2: in this spot, you don't want to be a prisoner
Speaker 2: at twenty nine.
Speaker 1: And I'm with you that.
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna look at that as a move
Speaker 2: piece because to me, besides, I had the top ten
Speaker 2: in this draft. All the talent is from pick forty
Speaker 2: five to pick ninety. To me, like the middle of
Speaker 2: this draft to me is scrong.
Speaker 8: Within the top I agree, I think, like I think
Speaker 8: you have to be flexible. This is what I like
Speaker 8: about this front office is doing I think they're flexible,
Speaker 8: Like they'll come out and say things, we want to
Speaker 8: build through the draft, and then it looks like they're
Speaker 8: not doing that by trading away a number of picks
Speaker 8: to address the needs. But they're not sitting there in
Speaker 8: this well, we said we're going to do this, and
Speaker 8: that's why we're going to do it. They looked at
Speaker 8: the options that were in front of them. If you're
Speaker 8: being honest about the free agent class that was available
Speaker 8: to them, who of these type of players that they
Speaker 8: acquired were they going to get if they just went
Speaker 8: down the path? I fired a couple of none of
Speaker 8: them right in the same way that you're talking about
Speaker 8: the draft, which is I agree with you, Like the
Speaker 8: top ten picks.
Speaker 9: Travis Hunter is going to.
Speaker 8: Be terrific in the NFL, cam Ward's probably going to
Speaker 8: be terrific. Abdul Carter is going to be terrific. But
Speaker 8: the list gets short. It is not like last year.
Speaker 8: Last year had a lot of top heavy, high end players.
Speaker 8: The receiving core to all of these quarterbacks that most
Speaker 8: of which look like they're hits.
Speaker 1: All of them, Yeah, all.
Speaker 8: Of them look like they're hits. The receiving players Brian
Speaker 8: Thomas Belik neighbors, all of these hit players came out.
Speaker 8: I agree with you once you get past about number
Speaker 8: ten and we're not even in the business of taking
Speaker 8: your quarterback, And it looks like a couple quarterbacks are
Speaker 8: going to be overdrafted this year because of scarcity. There
Speaker 8: is not a lot of what looks to be premiere players,
Speaker 8: which again leaves the flexibility. So if at twenty nine,
Speaker 8: and for some reason, and I doubt this happens, it's
Speaker 8: Shador Sanders falls in that neighborhood and then someone goes,
Speaker 8: all right, now it's worth it to move into the
Speaker 8: first round because we get the fifth year option for
Speaker 8: him and we'll give up something for draft capitol and return.
Speaker 8: Washington should be wide open to something like that. Or
Speaker 8: if Jackson Dart is available there, well, there's some other
Speaker 8: players that people move up for. I think this is
Speaker 8: this is not saying out loud like, yeah, we want
Speaker 8: to build through the draft, but I agree with you,
Speaker 8: this draft doesn't have all of these high end players
Speaker 8: in it. We needed to fill a lot of holes. Well,
Speaker 8: the free agent class only offered you what they had.
Speaker 8: The options are what they are, So they went and
Speaker 8: did something that seemed different from what they were saying
Speaker 8: they were going to do because of what their options are,
Speaker 8: and look what happened. They've put themselves in a position
Speaker 8: to do as well as they can in this draft
Speaker 8: and leave themselves open for options and not have to
Speaker 8: pigeonhole themselves.
Speaker 9: I loved the approach to all of this.
Speaker 8: They have a lot of holes that they had to fill,
Speaker 8: some of their own making some that they had to
Speaker 8: go about it, and they haven't gotten stuck in their
Speaker 8: own thinking of, well, we said we're going to do
Speaker 8: it this way, Well you could only do what's in
Speaker 8: front of you. And they've adjusted to it.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 3: And when you look at guys like Jonathan Jones and
Speaker 3: Dietrich Wise their history with the Patriots, you're talking about
Speaker 3: a three time captain, guy.
Speaker 1: Who's won a Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: So it feels like signing those guys, besides adding some
Speaker 3: nice depth pieces, is very intentional because of their history
Speaker 3: and that they know how to want to be a
Speaker 3: part of.
Speaker 1: The what coach coach of guys?
Speaker 8: Yeah, yes, I remember we played New England in the preseason,
Speaker 8: last preseason game, and I remember looking at them and
Speaker 8: they were there and their defense has been very good
Speaker 8: for a long time for good reason, right you know,
Speaker 8: Jard Mayo had taken.
Speaker 9: Over for Bill Belichick. They've known to be a great
Speaker 9: defensive unit.
Speaker 8: And I remember sitting there watching the preseason game going,
Speaker 8: I don't know if their offense is going to be
Speaker 8: any good, you know, because they just look across the board.
Speaker 8: But I know defensively they're going to be very competitive.
Speaker 8: And these were a couple of players that stand out,
Speaker 8: and now that they've had this changeover, these are a
Speaker 8: couple of guys that kind of fell through the cracks
Speaker 8: for them. I think the why signing is huge, honestly,
Speaker 8: YEA for their hopefully the rush defense, for the rotational pieces.
Speaker 8: Their defensive line is very deep. Look at their cornerback
Speaker 8: group in one year. How different it looks now the
Speaker 8: group that they're going to be what looks like right
Speaker 8: now sending out there. And I don't think they're done.
Speaker 9: At corner two.
Speaker 8: I think they need to think about, you know, how
Speaker 8: are they adding to that group as well? But I
Speaker 8: will say this and I'll see if you agree with
Speaker 8: me Fred on this. I still feel like on both
Speaker 8: sides of the ball, Deebo's a major upgrade in terms
Speaker 8: of a playmaker on offense, but I still think there's
Speaker 8: more that's necessary explosive players. I would say the same
Speaker 8: thing on defense that they still are looking for a
Speaker 8: game changing type of player, and I'm open to any
Speaker 8: position group that's coming from, whether it's defensive end or corner.
Speaker 8: They are better and deeper at these position groups than
Speaker 8: they were a year ago, and I am more bullish
Speaker 8: about what they can do with this group. But I
Speaker 8: still think they're looking for that playmaker on that side
Speaker 8: of the ball.
Speaker 9: Still.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we did fill in some gaps we lost Chin.
Speaker 2: We filled that in I think Jonathan Jones with him,
Speaker 2: Marshaw and Lattimore, Sam Rich. Still, I think that's a
Speaker 2: legit core of football player. I could take them and
Speaker 2: go to war with anybody receiving corps. But you're right
Speaker 2: to add some icing on that cake to make it better.
Speaker 2: It would be good to have that player that really
Speaker 2: stands out. And it's a couple of defensive player, especially
Speaker 2: in the backfield South Carolina. I killed his name, Emma
Speaker 2: or you are whatever his name is. I butchered it
Speaker 2: all the time. But he was a monster at the
Speaker 2: come by his film matches has come by. So it
Speaker 2: is some players out there that might make you second
Speaker 2: guess leaving from twenty nine. If they're there, maybe Jane
Speaker 2: Pierce Jr. From Tennessee you talked to by Edge Rusher.
Speaker 2: He's one of the best edges in this in this dreo.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it might be some guy that make you
Speaker 2: sneak there. But yeah, I think they are still going
Speaker 2: to add some pieces to this car.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that like playmakers, explosive playmakers. They were
Speaker 8: amazing and it was almost unprecedented how good they were
Speaker 8: in clutch fourth down positions, in drives late in the game,
Speaker 8: in one score games. And I think we can all
Speaker 8: agree that if they add some premier talent with some
Speaker 8: playmaking ability on both sides of the ball, the outcomes
Speaker 8: might not be as close.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we won't. We won't have to win it
Speaker 1: at the end of the game.
Speaker 8: Correct, Like there's going to be a correction to stuff
Speaker 8: like that. You can't win every game by one.
Speaker 1: Scowork, you can't win every game.
Speaker 8: Last play the game last year was a miraculous, incredible
Speaker 8: I'll never forget its season. But moving forward, if we're
Speaker 8: going to keep winning at a clip like this, twelve
Speaker 8: wins the season, getting to the playoffs, hopefully more than that,
Speaker 8: going to the place that they want to get to.
Speaker 8: They need some premier, explosive playmakers on both sides of
Speaker 8: the ball. And I'm not sure I still see it yet.
Speaker 8: On defense, although the group as a whole, yeah, like
Speaker 8: better when they had a year ago. But we all
Speaker 8: on the defense.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, now I'm finish say we Also, I think
Speaker 2: size matter, and I'm always one of them people.
Speaker 1: I like the guys.
Speaker 2: They smell like bacon trench warfare would win this game.
Speaker 2: And I felt like they looked at Philadelphia and said
Speaker 2: they're just bigger than us. So if you look at wise,
Speaker 2: if you look at the guys we signed, especially on
Speaker 2: defense and offense, they are mounting of men. They understand
Speaker 2: that if we don't win the line of scrimmage, Jayden
Speaker 2: can only do so much, Bobby Wagner can only do
Speaker 2: so much.
Speaker 1: A Lottimore can only do so much.
Speaker 2: We can't get pushed around by the bigger Philadelphia Eagles.
Speaker 2: And if every guy that I looked at that they signed,
Speaker 2: it's over three hundred and twenty pounds.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 9: It's both sides of the ball too.
Speaker 8: Like I know, Josh Sweat is gone, but you still
Speaker 8: have to deal with that defensive line because of Jail
Speaker 8: and Carter.
Speaker 9: They have to get better up front.
Speaker 8: This is where the Tunsil trade really matters for them,
Speaker 8: and I think as they head towards the draft, which
Speaker 8: kind of goes back to what we were talking about earlier,
Speaker 8: and this is why they're not pigeonholed into anything. Why
Speaker 8: I like that they're in the position that they're in
Speaker 8: because of this trade. They have a choice to make here,
Speaker 8: and I think they could look at this offense and go, Okay,
Speaker 8: we've got Terry McLaurin, Deebo Samuel, we know what we
Speaker 8: have in the tight end room. We feel a lot
Speaker 8: better about our offensive line right now, and we're gonna
Speaker 8: feel really good when Cosmey comes back that we have
Speaker 8: a group that we can go to war with with
Speaker 8: a group like this, Do we go over the top
Speaker 8: and use.
Speaker 9: Twenty nine on a running.
Speaker 8: Back which would because it could be a playmaking, game
Speaker 8: breaking running back, or say Matthew Golden out of Texas
Speaker 8: is available for them, You've got an opportunity to get
Speaker 8: a playmaking wide receiver. Do you go, you know what,
Speaker 8: let's load up on offense and see how good we
Speaker 8: can be. Can we be a top five offense? Or
Speaker 8: do you look at the defense and good? This is
Speaker 8: why the options are open here. And like you said,
Speaker 8: James Pierce or a couple of the edges, A very
Speaker 8: deep groups tackles, a very deep group coming into this draft.
Speaker 9: Do you look at that and go, Okay, it is
Speaker 9: a void. We do need it.
Speaker 8: We feel better and if we get a playmake to
Speaker 8: add to all these other players. Are we competitive to
Speaker 8: become a top ten defense and not a defense it's
Speaker 8: ranked twenty? You know if they these are the choices
Speaker 8: they have to make, and I think they're easier now
Speaker 8: because of what they've done over the last week.
Speaker 1: Plus great problems to have. We got to have them
Speaker 1: all more often. Spram Weinstein, the voice of the Commanders brand.
Speaker 1: We appreciate the time. Man. Good to hear from you.
Speaker 9: Yeah, good to see you guys.
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward for some of them. Great in game
Speaker 2: calls again. Hopefully this season matches last season.
Speaker 8: Bre Man, I wish you were still playing, Fred God,
Speaker 8: I want to call your plays.
Speaker 1: Listen, you know, I'll give you some love out there. Too,
Speaker 1: and I break Davis and on the thirty one line.
Speaker 3: Great to get some insight. Good to see Brown, always
Speaker 3: good to see Bran all the way. So now we
Speaker 3: got a voicemail, I believe. And then we're gonna finish
Speaker 3: up with a little tournament style. Well, it's going to
Speaker 3: be a bracket but football.
Speaker 2: Yeah, from the plays of the season. You're gonna go
Speaker 2: bracket to see which one is the number one? Which
Speaker 2: God yeah, yes, no, I don't.
Speaker 5: Well, inspired by March Mountains, We're gonna yeah, Like like
Speaker 5: Jank said, we're going to do a little best from
Speaker 5: the who best moments from the season bracket.
Speaker 1: That was, by the way, high Point. It's the small school.
Speaker 1: I always pick one or two three small schools, the poor.
Speaker 4: Mississippi State scot some.
Speaker 2: We never we ain't done the dogs. We always the
Speaker 2: overdub all school high Point. And I went did a
Speaker 2: little vestigation from the school a high Point. Do you
Speaker 2: know if you go to high Point any time it's
Speaker 2: ice cream trucks, you get out the ice cream free.
Speaker 2: What do you know it's a steakhouse on high Point
Speaker 2: that they eat for free, so they could teach them
Speaker 2: how to eat in business etiquette.
Speaker 4: Oh wowtop.
Speaker 2: So while y'all tripping on high point, you might need
Speaker 2: to go see the campus.
Speaker 1: Now here's like water everywhere.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, wow search that that's incredible. No regrets
Speaker 5: about where I went. I'm still above through.
Speaker 4: All right.
Speaker 10: So Anna James Smooth, this Willy smithter Phield, let the
Speaker 10: king sister. I've been seeing everybody going crazy, everybody trashon
Speaker 10: Hunter at Colorado playing wide receiver and defensive back.
Speaker 1: And he's a great one.
Speaker 10: I think he's gonna do great jobs in the NFL.
Speaker 10: But we have a guy by the name of mikey
Speaker 10: aunt Man Samwich Steell who.
Speaker 7: Can do the same thing.
Speaker 10: So the question is, do you think Savwie Steel needs
Speaker 10: an offensive package? Oh yeah, I remember the number from Virginia,
Speaker 10: that's all.
Speaker 7: I remember the number car All right, guys, I'm gonna
Speaker 7: be looking for the answer.
Speaker 1: Y'all have a good one. Thank you. First of all,
Speaker 1: he ain't Willy Smith the Phield, that's you. I'm Willie Smith.
Speaker 2: To Phielth that's my best friend from Mississippi named Percy Donason,
Speaker 2: all right, and he stole my name and he refused
Speaker 2: to give it back. But he's a football Some and
Speaker 2: most people don't know. Michael sam Steel came to Michigan
Speaker 2: as a wire receiver and he moved to corner, so
Speaker 2: he does have their versatility.
Speaker 1: I just think we want accent out of him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I played with a lot of corner I
Speaker 2: played both positions.
Speaker 1: I played with Chimp Bailey.
Speaker 3: I mean most corners or receivers have played one of
Speaker 3: the other, if not both, if.
Speaker 1: Both, you have to play both.
Speaker 2: If you the best received on your high school team,
Speaker 2: you probably the best call the same thing, right, the
Speaker 2: same thing. So it just happens until like you get
Speaker 2: with the top of the top and they're like, oh no,
Speaker 2: you're a corner, not a wire receiver. You'll be a
Speaker 2: better wide receiver than a corner. So everybody won't get
Speaker 2: the Travis Hunter's treatment. And only reason I think he's
Speaker 2: getting it because he played an average one hundred and
Speaker 2: forty plays a game.
Speaker 1: Also, he's really really special and unique he is. But
Speaker 1: he'll go to kicker.
Speaker 2: What if I told you is a draft good rule?
Speaker 2: Oh that Travis Hunter pounds for pound is not the
Speaker 2: cornerback in this drail.
Speaker 1: Would you believe me? Guy from Michigan, Will Johnson Johnson
Speaker 1: six two two hundred pounds four three four four forty.
Speaker 1: Uh He's basically a faster version of Childs Woods. Okay,
Speaker 1: damn all right, So I compare these guys. So Will
Speaker 1: Johnson is a faster version of Childs Woods. And as
Speaker 1: a dB, Okay, I compare Travis Hunter the Champ Bailey.
Speaker 1: He's a longer, skinnier. Yeah, he's lean Champ, He's leaner,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 2: So to me, he's the second best corner and he's
Speaker 2: probably the fifth best wide autum, but the best overall athlete,
Speaker 2: but the best overall athlete, and that's what keeping him
Speaker 2: at the top. But if I'm a quarterback needed team
Speaker 2: getting the best athlete, don't do anything for me. Like
Speaker 2: if I'm Tennessee Titans, yeah I got Will Levis. Travis
Speaker 2: Hunters is not gonna make me that much better, Like
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be forced to take you to doing Sanders
Speaker 2: even do I want Travis Hunter? Like so some time
Speaker 2: the positional need is bigger than the person. And like
Speaker 2: I said, I love Travis Hunter, but in the NFL,
Speaker 2: his size, which me and him was the same size
Speaker 2: coming out, skinny, I don't think he obeya continue to
Speaker 2: hit these running backs for four quarters, these tight ends
Speaker 2: that's six six, two and fifty pounds, and then get
Speaker 2: on the offense and play sixty plays and get smashed
Speaker 2: by Bobby Wagner, then gets smashed by Nikobe Dean three
Speaker 2: four five times a game, and then go back and
Speaker 2: play corner.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: I just don't think can you put a package in? Yes,
Speaker 2: he can't play it for a game at both.
Speaker 1: No, he just can't. Not today's game. No he can't.
Speaker 2: He can't, especially with his build like you were talking about. No,
Speaker 2: I just think it's gonna be too much for his bill.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be too much.
Speaker 1: I think you're right.
Speaker 3: And look Sadry still would be awesome in theory, but
Speaker 3: ultimately you don't want to do anything to impede his
Speaker 3: development as a corner.
Speaker 1: Yes, and until he becomes a and look, he's close,
Speaker 1: like he said, like that corner.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you aren't putting nothing else on his plate exact
Speaker 2: because even when we had Champ, we would put him
Speaker 2: at slot wire receist. We'll put Champ at tailback and
Speaker 2: runs talk sweeps like come on, Sean Taylor play wide receiver.
Speaker 1: Yeah. People don't understand.
Speaker 2: We used to throw them jump balls into his own
Speaker 2: all the time because he was the biggest athlete and
Speaker 2: one of the best athlete standing in at six y three,
Speaker 2: got a forty inch vertical to throw the ball up
Speaker 2: to him. But he got the body to do that.
Speaker 2: I don't think Travis Hunter has the body now. In
Speaker 2: three years, after all these stakes and weights, yeah, he'll
Speaker 2: probably be to one hundred and ninety five pounds.
Speaker 1: He'll be ready to do it. He can change for sure. Yeah, guys,
Speaker 1: let me tell you about tel Geek.
Speaker 3: They have your ticket to the best live concerts in
Speaker 3: the DMV at Northwest State and they make it easy
Speaker 3: to catch world conquering tours and high watch performances from
Speaker 3: your favorite artists all summer long. See Geek has the
Speaker 3: best seat, your seat for an unforgettable summer. From rock
Speaker 3: Royalty to rap superstars R and B the country find
Speaker 3: it all on Seegek. The official ticket he part Northwest
Speaker 3: Stadium summer concert season officially starts with Sea.
Speaker 1: Geek has Country Music taken over? Yes, Yes, it's getting
Speaker 1: there everywhere booze in like.
Speaker 4: From Virginia, from Virginia, from wood Bridge, Yeah.
Speaker 1: And uh everywhere.
Speaker 2: I turned right now because I grew up in Mississippi,
Speaker 2: mean you grew up in Texas, so country music is
Speaker 2: second nature to us. But for the rest of the
Speaker 2: United States, they didn't really take it all in. Like
Speaker 2: Cooper Flag is sitting in Maine, I'm sure he ain't
Speaker 2: bopping his feet to Chaboozie.
Speaker 3: You've just seen a lot of genre crossing music right
Speaker 3: where it's country, but it's possible maybe.
Speaker 1: It's R and B infused.
Speaker 3: So it's with today's music, it's hard and harder to
Speaker 3: give it a classification.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and guess what I think they are understanding that
Speaker 2: one of the most profitable has always been country music.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, because of the concerts and it just
Speaker 2: the country music just has this draw to it. I
Speaker 2: say this, country music has always been happy music.
Speaker 1: Yes, and country music now is not country music, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean.
Speaker 4: Very it's very popul it's.
Speaker 2: Very pop very power and like myself, I'm from the
Speaker 2: home of blues and now I live in the home
Speaker 2: of go go.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I have always my.
Speaker 2: Family loved the blues, but I'm too happy to like
Speaker 2: the blues.
Speaker 1: Because I was asking him, like, ain't y'all miserable? Like
Speaker 1: every song is about somebody wife leaving the house getting
Speaker 1: burnt down, like it's the blues is for sad people.
Speaker 2: So I was like, I don't like blues. I like
Speaker 2: happy music. Go go to me, awhile, but go go
Speaker 2: It's happy.
Speaker 1: Always has just like a positive feel. It got a
Speaker 1: positive get up yesterday, get up, let's move, let's sell
Speaker 1: it round. So yeah, most of definite, Let'm win it.
Speaker 1: Bracket time, yes, bracket time.
Speaker 4: Okay. So basically staff writers oxell Be helped me. See this.
Speaker 1: Is the guy that I continue to beat in cookouts.
Speaker 5: I know Fred's Fred's rival that I I will say
Speaker 5: I beat you in the bank office.
Speaker 4: You say, it's all on technicality, follow the rules.
Speaker 1: Not mine.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 1: Like I lost because I brought a bad dish. I lost.
Speaker 5: All right, Well, I am going to I think I'm
Speaker 5: gonna make a little graphic to put on the video
Speaker 5: version of the podcast.
Speaker 4: But basically, here's what we're gonna do. I'm gonna I'm gonna.
Speaker 5: Basically give you guys each like a matchup, and you'll
Speaker 5: decide and as we go.
Speaker 1: Which one moves forward?
Speaker 5: Yes, all right, okay, So in the first seed with
Speaker 5: the hail Mary versus our eighth seed, which is Mariota
Speaker 5: beating the Cowboys in Dallas.
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I love Mary. I call him
Speaker 1: Yoda because you have the young get to he's awesome,
Speaker 1: Mary Yoda.
Speaker 2: I enjoy and him for him to come in there.
Speaker 2: We took Jay and up they getting threw around the game.
Speaker 2: Didn't really need the game. And that's why I got
Speaker 2: the dumb It can't be in front of the hell
Speaker 2: Noah because the hell Noah not only propelled us as
Speaker 2: the darlings of the NFL season, it also sent the
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears and their tail spiral.
Speaker 3: And also that's gonna be that will be one of
Speaker 3: the most iconic plays in franchise history, not just from
Speaker 3: the past season.
Speaker 1: Is the Commander? Yes, right there is the biggest play.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Could the Detroit plays.
Speaker 5: Well, yes, yes, next one our four seed didn sur
Speaker 5: faceth seed the overtime win over the Falcons, which I
Speaker 5: believe clenched the.
Speaker 4: Playoffs for us. Or our Eagles went.
Speaker 1: At home, which both of them came to the last play.
Speaker 2: Yeah, both of them with walkoffs by Jedi five both
Speaker 2: of them.
Speaker 1: Was that's a tough one.
Speaker 2: Great ones right there, now, y'all know about the personal
Speaker 2: thing I got going on with the Falcons because that's
Speaker 2: my ex wife team.
Speaker 1: Oh that's right.
Speaker 5: I thought you also had something personal against the Eagles
Speaker 5: now that the fans are coming after.
Speaker 1: You, I really do so a person. But actually that's
Speaker 1: so true.
Speaker 2: I've had this personal fight with the Eagles forever though, Yeah, forever,
Speaker 2: I've had this with the Eagles. I would have to
Speaker 2: say the biggest one is the Eagle win too, because
Speaker 2: it's individual. The Super Bowl champs. We didn't know it did,
Speaker 2: but we knew they had a good chance to win it.
Speaker 2: And just to show that we can beat them, like
Speaker 2: we're not too far away from y'all.
Speaker 1: I go with the Philadelphia win, right, And also do
Speaker 1: we have like five turnovers in that game? We had
Speaker 1: no business win.
Speaker 2: In that game and still one of that game, So
Speaker 2: the battles of the bird. I rather eat Eagle than Falcon.
Speaker 4: That was clever.
Speaker 5: I like that.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, Eagles went at home. It's always nice to
Speaker 4: see whatever opponent.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 5: All right, onto our second seed versus our seventh seed,
Speaker 5: the win in Detroit for the NFC Championship, No, the
Speaker 5: divisional Divisional and then Daniel's scrambled touchdown to Terry versus
Speaker 5: the Saints.
Speaker 1: One is a play the other one is the tired game.
Speaker 3: No I know, but that play against if there was
Speaker 3: an upset, I would say this would be potentially it
Speaker 3: just because look, the winning Detroit was massive, but that
Speaker 3: play was You can watch that three or four times
Speaker 3: and I'd be like, did I just see what I
Speaker 3: just saw?
Speaker 1: That's a special play.
Speaker 2: But that Detroit game, I know, with Detroit being the
Speaker 2: like Detroit but a chanceah, And we went thumped them.
Speaker 2: We went to Detroit and went into the Motown building
Speaker 2: and ripped all the records off the wall. We went
Speaker 2: to Detroit, knocked on the Ford building and kicked every
Speaker 2: Ford tourists.
Speaker 1: They hat We threw it in the wall.
Speaker 3: The fiesta whatever y'all like Detroit pieces turned it down,
Speaker 3: threw it on the ground, little seasons.
Speaker 1: No thanks, we don't want nothing to do with y'all.
Speaker 2: It's gotta be Detroit because that's a second like, that's
Speaker 2: a big old win.
Speaker 1: That the second place. We hadn't been to the second
Speaker 1: round of the playoffs in one hundred years. You cannot
Speaker 1: discount the game. I think it got as much as
Speaker 1: I love it play. Yeah, you're right. I know you're right.
Speaker 1: It's gotta be Detroit because that Detroit was Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're their series.
Speaker 4: That was that was a big one.
Speaker 5: So we're gonna we're gonna select our second seed win
Speaker 5: in Detroit.
Speaker 4: Yeah all right.
Speaker 5: Next is our third seed versus our sixth seed. Zane
Speaker 5: Gonzalez game winning field goal? Yep, in the postseason or
Speaker 5: Monday Night Football went over the Bengals.
Speaker 1: Bengals and when you say the postseason, are you talking about.
Speaker 4: I believe Tampa. That was Tampton. That was Tampa.
Speaker 1: And we're talking about the win over the Bengals. Yeah.
Speaker 4: With that Terry.
Speaker 1: So Bram's call iconic, it was. It was a dagger.
Speaker 1: But it's hard to it's hard to compare thing he's
Speaker 1: to the playoffs. It's hard to compare regular season.
Speaker 4: I know, the kind of don't compare.
Speaker 1: Like it's like I can't see him say big Zany
Speaker 1: and Gonzales making it field goal, sending us to the
Speaker 1: Knicks round. It's better than a play that was made
Speaker 1: and what we.
Speaker 4: Three I know, but that I think that for the season.
Speaker 1: Every tournament has an upset. Yeah that's my upset. But
Speaker 1: I get you got to move it on. I understand
Speaker 1: it's a play. All right, I'm with you. I'll go
Speaker 1: with you. We can go with the Daniels Harry.
Speaker 3: Wasn't that when you were like, Okay, that's it, Like
Speaker 3: that's the real deal. That's the one play where immediate
Speaker 3: you're like, we got a truth.
Speaker 4: We have something.
Speaker 1: He's the truth. We got a superstar.
Speaker 4: Monday Night football.
Speaker 5: All right, I think that's our Who know we have
Speaker 5: we have two upsets in our brackets so far. All right,
Speaker 5: it's between Hail Mary and Eagles went at home.
Speaker 4: I think it's a hell Noah, it's.
Speaker 5: The heck.
Speaker 1: In the division.
Speaker 2: Team picked the win the super Bowl before the season started.
Speaker 2: We need a win against them. We need to split
Speaker 2: with them, all right. They are competition like we've never
Speaker 2: had before. We're trying to prove that we are on
Speaker 2: your level.
Speaker 3: But a play that you hardly ever for every Hal
Speaker 3: Mary that works in the NFL, Hell noah, there are
Speaker 3: one hundred others that fall flat, picked off, intercepted, So
Speaker 3: you've hit to it once in a lifetime and from
Speaker 3: a guy that the team picked up that was discarded
Speaker 3: by the Texans. While you got a Bears defender taunting
Speaker 3: the crowd, I mean, and then Chicago Spirals after that, and.
Speaker 1: Klar Williams coming home. Oh, and I just remember him
Speaker 1: sitting on the bench like this. This is when I
Speaker 1: knew we had the better of the pick because he's emotional,
Speaker 1: emotional thugs leader hug. Look at it this way. Ten
Speaker 1: years from now, which play will you remember more? Oh?
Speaker 1: It's to hell Noah?
Speaker 5: Yes, all right, okay, next one, that winning Detroit or
Speaker 5: the Monday night football went over the Beangals. It's the
Speaker 5: winding Detroit I hear y'all.
Speaker 1: Detroit fans felt so good about that. Everybody thought Detroit was.
Speaker 1: All I heard was knuckles.
Speaker 2: I'll never forget when Jameson Willis scored that touchdown and
Speaker 2: went key and peel on us.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about. I was like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, we got to whoop these guys. And we
Speaker 1: whoop these guys. It's got to be the win of Detroit.
Speaker 1: Yes there, all.
Speaker 4: Right, Raiter Championship.
Speaker 5: Best Moment spracket of the twenty twenty four season. Number
Speaker 5: one the Hell Noah versus number two Detroit win.
Speaker 1: I think this way we're gonna be split it.
Speaker 2: I think this is where is going to be split
Speaker 2: because I'm about the quality of the game, and I
Speaker 2: ax myself. If we don't complete the Hell Noah, you
Speaker 2: still make it to the playoffs, or do we?
Speaker 1: I think we do. I think one less game winning.
Speaker 2: Don't deterar us from the playoff because then we just
Speaker 2: would Eleving and what six Like we still make the
Speaker 2: player and we're.
Speaker 1: Still in the same spot. I'm gonna go to Hell Noah.
Speaker 3: I feel like when I saw that, that will forever
Speaker 3: be a magical moment.
Speaker 1: And look, the winning Detroit was amazing.
Speaker 3: No one expected us to win, but I'll always look
Speaker 3: at it like that was incredible.
Speaker 1: We didn't finish the job, because the job is to
Speaker 1: win it all. Hell Noah will stand on its own.
Speaker 3: Remember that one time when I thought the game was over,
Speaker 3: nobody thought we were gonna win, and we walked off
Speaker 3: and the stadium is erupting, like I cannot believe we
Speaker 3: just saw that.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead.
Speaker 2: I think the championship. Mama got to be that grabbed
Speaker 2: the mic. I'm going to Disneyland moment.
Speaker 1: It's fair.
Speaker 2: Can't mean I thought, Noah, do I grab the mic
Speaker 2: and disney Land here I come.
Speaker 1: Playoffs. I just won a game that got me four
Speaker 1: quarters away from the super Bowl. I'm going to Disney World,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 2: I think it's the Detroit win because it also moved
Speaker 2: us away from misery with the Cowboys. Yeah, so the
Speaker 2: Cowboys now, by themselves, twenty nine years, they haven't been
Speaker 2: to the NFC championship.
Speaker 1: Now we took away from them. Say no, we're not
Speaker 1: longer with you.
Speaker 2: Y'all are by y'allself is the stinkinest organization in football.
Speaker 1: We are over here now. It's with us in the Eagles.
Speaker 2: Out of the last two teams to go to the
Speaker 2: NFC Championships. We're on their pace. We're not on your
Speaker 2: pace anymore. Like the hell Noah was good. It was gratifying.
Speaker 2: We got to talk about it. But it's one play.
Speaker 2: It's one play more important than the stint of the season.
Speaker 2: I think that the playoff game is axtension of the season.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, therefore, and which one would the most quality team?
Speaker 1: This Detroit Detroit team had destroyed Chicago, destroying everybody, and
Speaker 1: we went destroyed them. What up? Though?
Speaker 5: Well, if you guys want to weigh in, yes, we're
Speaker 5: seven One night drop it in the comments for sure.
Speaker 4: That's a good one.
Speaker 1: Jaks, thank you.
Speaker 2: And I think my vote is the Detroit Win is
Speaker 2: the champion. Are you standing firm? I'm standing firm on
Speaker 2: the hell noah, But I mean so I get both
Speaker 2: sides right. So this is what we want you to do.
