Nothing could bring 61 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: me down. But I'll tell you, even the state of 62 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: the New York Jets in two thousand can't do it. 63 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: They can try, they can't do it. They can't hurt me. 64 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: But this is a big show, sponsored of course by 65 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: Mr Flames economics class in the Hague on Netherlands.

Can you help 87 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: us with that? What is going on in Mark's mind? 88 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: It's a lot of alien like philosophy. I'll have to 89 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: actually listen to this episode. I'd like to know more 90 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: about alien philosophy. All right, let's start doing some news. Yes, 91 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: Uh teased it a few minutes ago. There is a 92 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,239 Speaker 1: new number one on the NFL got dot com top 93 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: one on one free agents and it is Tony Romo 94 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: because NFL Network insider Ian Rappaport and NFL Networks Jane 95 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: Slater reported that the Cowboys have told Romo that he 96 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: will be released, according to a source and formed of 97 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 1: the decision, when the new league year starts on Thursday 98 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: at four pm Eastern, that's less than twenty four hours 99 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: from now, Romo will be free to sign with any 100 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: team he chooses. And now what team will that be? 101 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: Everyone is connecting the dots the two teams right now, 102 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: Chris Wesling the Denver Broncos and the Houston Texas, and 103 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: UH rap sheet said Wednesday that both those teams are 104 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: quote very interested suitors. Your thoughts, well, we know the 105 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: Broncos have basically come out and said it, if he 106 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: will play for a discount, we want him. The Texans 107 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: have been very quiet about it, and until Ian reported this, 108 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 1: there really wasn't much connecting Romo to the Texans beyond 109 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: Romo's desire to play for the Texans, which maybe second 110 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: to the Broncos on his list. But the way that 111 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,919 Speaker 1: Texans have operated their quarterback room over the past few years, 112 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: you wonder if they even realize how desperately they need 113 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,239 Speaker 1: Tony Romo. This idea that they've already paid for brock 114 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: Oswaller so they can't go get Romo is laughable. Give 115 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: me a break. You cannot win with brock Oswaller. There's 116 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: no reason why you have a roster set up to 117 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: win for you to say, no, we don't need Tony Romo. 118 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: We already made a mistake at quarterback. Go win your division. 119 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: Get Tony Romo and Greg as you said, you tweeted 120 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,239 Speaker 1: earlier today that if they do indeed go hot after 121 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: Romo the Texans, it is basically a huge admission of 122 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: failure by both Rick Smith the entire Houston ranch. And 123 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: I think that's healthy for teams to admit the stake quickly. 124 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: And I agree West that you should be able to 125 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: move on the difference between these two teams. The Broncos 126 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: have more cap room, and it's not like you can 127 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: save money from getting by getting rid of Brock. You're 128 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: paying him that money. And I don't know if there's 129 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: a scenario, for instance, where you can sign Tony Romo 130 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: and a J. Booyer. So you're starting to get into 131 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: a circumstance because they're up, you know, closer to the 132 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: cap They got about twenty million in space, got more 133 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: corner depth than the Houston Tech, right, So maybe you 134 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: just make that that decision. But listening to to Ian, 135 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: I got the sense at least, and it's early and 136 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: teams are gonna put this stuff out there that they're 137 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: not going to break the bank for him either. I 138 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: think it's gonna have to be some sort of incentive, 139 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: really heavy deal where he has to stay healthy, he 140 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: has to produce, and I don't know if he's gonna 141 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: get paid like a like a star in either place. 142 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if either one of these places. Once 143 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: I think two things matter, we can say, and I 144 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: agree with you West, that they'd be crazy if they 145 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: could to not get Tony Romo and essentially move on 146 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: from brock Oswall, which they might actually do if Tom 147 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: Savage were to beat him out in camp. He would 148 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: sit on. But hold on. You can't just discount the 149 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: fact that their owner has not exactly come out and 150 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: said we want Tony Romo. If anything, Bob McNair has 151 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,239 Speaker 1: talked about having to make it work with the players 152 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: they have that this we can say it's crazy. But 153 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 1: the guy running the organization with his own money on 154 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: the line, who has sixteen million this year and eighteen 155 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 1: million next year tied up an Osweiler, might want to 156 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,079 Speaker 1: say I want to see another year out of this. 157 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that's right football wise, He's not a fake. 158 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: Already admit him and their mistake when in the heat 159 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: of a playoff race they benched him for Tom Savage. 160 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: Coaches did the owner did not in borrowing anything crazy. 161 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: He's off the team. After this year, no guaranteed money 162 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: after this year. But it's it is crazy, it's loyal. 163 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: He's a great gotta work for because Rick Smith by 164 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: going after Romo at all, they're admitting they totally screw 165 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: this up. And in almost any organization, an owner would 166 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: not allow that GM to either keep his job or 167 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: go after another quarterback like he's keeping the guy and 168 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: letting Rick Smith do that. Usually you would have fired 169 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: Rick Smith or you would say, look, you blew it? 170 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: Why should I? Why should I trust you? When you 171 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: talk about like good owners, owners that will do anything 172 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: to win, I think this is this is sort of 173 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: proof that he just has to swallow this big loss 174 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: and go after him. And yet why I don't buy 175 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: the whole thing that they have a better offensive line, 176 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: so you know, Tony Romo should want to go there. 177 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: The Broncos are a better route to a super Bowl? 178 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 1: How are they? Great? Championship? AFC South is so much 179 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: of an easier. The f C West is probably the 180 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 1: hardest division in football, and the a f C South 181 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: is perennially the easy I know that the Texans want 182 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,599 Speaker 1: to playoff game last year, but I think they're a 183 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 1: lot closer to being where they were ranked in Football 184 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: Outsiders in terms of their quality in terms of just 185 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: a best team in the league, then they really are 186 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: a super Bowl. Their defense gave the Patriots fist fits, 187 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: they finished number one in the NFL, and their offense 188 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: is laid in with talent that was unused by Oswald. 189 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: Moving on, common sense prevails in Western New York. The 190 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills have made the decision to keep their starting 191 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: quarterback Tyrod Taylor on a restructured deal, a source told 192 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 1: NFL Network insider Ian Rappaport on Wednesday. The team then 193 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: uh confirmed the signing and this ends um what had 194 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: been a long, long drawn out process dating but got 195 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: essentially got Rex Ryan fired Mark Sessler his unwillingness to 196 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: turn away from Tyrod Taylor to benjam in week seventeen. 197 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: Now they have a new coach in town and they 198 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: decided to keep him. What does this tell you? I 199 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: think it's incredibly positive for Bills fans who are probably 200 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: really concerned about where this team would be had this 201 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: dunderheaded decision making progg process come out with no Tyrod Taylor. 202 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 1: You're basically saying that Doug Whalley, if this guy Doug 203 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: he was concerned about resigning him, keeping him in the building. 204 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: His you know, thoughts on EJ. Manuel aside that power 205 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: struggle was lost by Doug Whaley. Ian Ian Rappaport talked 206 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: about all the coaches in the building wanted to keep 207 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor. They knew he was the best option they 208 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: had right now. And it's a message to fans. Will 209 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: make the right decision at quarterback right now for the Bills. 210 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: Is it is the long term solution for the next five, six, 211 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: seven years. No, but that's true for the teams in 212 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: the league. You didn't make this mistake. At least you're 213 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: you're right about that. But I mean, I don't think 214 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: we should be handing out lollipops for the Bills. We're 215 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: taking this long to figure this situation out. I mean, 216 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: except that Sean mcderhom it's only because that the coaching 217 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: staff has not been there for long. They have to 218 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: take three weeks to watch tape. That takes you into 219 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: deep February. You've got the combine to deal with, and 220 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: then you have to see what the quarterback market is. 221 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: I think they talked about when we all knew the 222 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 1: quarterback market. I mean We didn't know what Mike Lennan 223 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: was gonna get off her two days ago. We did not, 224 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: I think that, and I think that had played into 225 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: them saying for us to go get anyone, it's gonna 226 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: be way too expensive. So hut up Tyrod Taylor's contract 227 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: after what we saw was gonna go to my glen 228 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: and for instance, you're crazy not to keep Tyrod Taylor. Well, 229 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: it's funny though, I mean, they like released this tweet 230 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: that says our quarterback and they've got a picture of 231 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor and it's like like twenty year olds running 232 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,719 Speaker 1: the Twitter. Fits like an American idol, Like we've our 233 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: quarterback like he's been, he's been your quarterback. You benched 234 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: your quarterback for e J. Manuel. You leaked stories to 235 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: reporters in the middle of a great season by Tyrod 236 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: Taylor that you wanted to benjam you wanted him out 237 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: of town. I think this is a good day for 238 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: Bills fans, but Bills fans specially have a funny loyalty 239 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: to Doug Whaley and defending everything that's going on. It 240 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: is comical to me that they essentially fired Rex Ryan 241 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: for this schism. In part you know about Tyrod Taylor. 242 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 1: And what do we hear over the last week's that 243 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: the front office and the coaching staff are totally divided 244 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: on Tyrod Taylor. It's funny that they hired a coach 245 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 1: that had a history with Tyrod Taylor that wanted to 246 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: keep him, and and they have a GM that basically 247 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: didn't and was forced to. It's kind of like the 248 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: last year all over again. It's crazy. I totally get 249 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: why there is a schism there. Well, you're gonna pay 250 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: him to go seven and nine and play his game 251 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: instead of the coaching staff skime. That's what you get 252 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: with Tyrod Taylor. You're not You're not running an NFL 253 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: offense with Tyrod Taylor. You're running his offense, which is 254 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,719 Speaker 1: gonna be a very run heavy offense. And it's not 255 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: like it's not your How are you going to keep 256 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: up with the Patriot? I don't know, but it's they ay. 257 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: We heard the coaches all wanted to keep him and 258 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: they like him, and I think that'sill a lot to 259 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: do with the alternative is But if you get rid 260 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: of Tyrod Taylor, you've got a flaming pr mess on 261 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: your hands. And then you end up with what Brian 262 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: Hoyer or or or or maybe ladder ladder day version 263 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: of Jay Cutler. I would just disagree that it's a 264 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: good day to be a Bills fan. It's it's more 265 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: wheel spinning. There's a chance he can be better. He's 266 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: been in this offense, So yes, you have to you 267 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: have the Taylor was not a terrible quarterback by any stretch. 268 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: Now quarterback, you're hoping that that Rick Dennison and Gary Kubiak, 269 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: essentially their offense can bring Tyrod Taylor to another level 270 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: he's been in this offense. I mean, that's the thing. 271 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: You have a coach Sean mcdermot's not touching the offense, 272 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: so it's Rick Dennison's offense. You have a coach who 273 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: coached him in this offense in Baltimore and was willing 274 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: to stand on the table that he's gonna fit in it. 275 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's definitely it's a lot better at done 276 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: otherwise stand on the table as supposed to pound the table. Yeah, 277 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: you're stand on the table, guy. I think if you're 278 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 1: just I pound the table for pound the table. Pound 279 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: on the table. It's like my son pounds on the table. 280 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: You know, what I mean when he wants a little 281 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: more food. You stand on the table, you get people's attention. Mark, 282 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: where do you come down to this? Don't typically get 283 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: on top of tables or do things to tables. I'll 284 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: get their attention in a different way. Moving on, speaking 285 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: of Brian Hoyer, he has a new home and that 286 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: home is Santa Clara, California. He signs or agrees in 287 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: principle excuse me, to a two year deal with the 288 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: forty nine forty Niners. We don't know the terms, but 289 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: Greg and I were batting around a few numbers. Two 290 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: for twenty could be what we're talking about. That type 291 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: of money, maybe higher than a standard backup below like 292 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: a true starter. We'll see where that falls in. But 293 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: the bigger, the bigger question, now, what does this move? 294 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: What does this mean? The move reunites Brian Hoyer with 295 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan um who just joined the team, obviously used 296 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: to work together in Cleveland. Uh. But what does this 297 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: mean Mark Sessler with Kirk Cousins. Does this mean the 298 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: end of the uh? The forty Niners being linked to 299 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: the Redskins passer? I think it does, but I don't 300 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: think it's because the Niners don't have an interest in 301 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. It sounds like their pursuit of him will 302 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: carry over to next offseason. And you know, if you're 303 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: the Niners, you've got the number two pick. They're not 304 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: going to use that on a quarterback by all accounts. 305 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: It could be also the thirty fourth and the sixty 306 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: six and the ninth. You could grab a quarterback somewhere else. 307 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: It is an awful idea for anyone to think that 308 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: they're going into the season with Brian Hoyer as their 309 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: starter based on what has been a hyped up campaign 310 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: with Cleveland and under Shannah, and it had a fifty 311 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: completion percentage, twelve touchdowns, thirteen picks, and was benched for 312 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: Johnny Manziel. That is the on Mark Sea's radar. It 313 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: is on my radar because I understand that Kyle Shanahan 314 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: is the bell of the ball right now. But if 315 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: we trust Kyle Shanahan, we have to assume he does 316 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: not see Brian Hoyer as a starter. He's had more 317 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: work alongside Brian Hoyer than almost any coach in the league. 318 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: That cannot be the final conclusion. This is our starter. 319 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: This is a solution. You've gotta keep looking. We gotta 320 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: play someone's good if we're going to kill the Bills 321 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: for signing up for Tyrod Taylor. This is a Patch 322 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: times five killed the Bills. No one's killing the Bills. 323 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: I think the Bills are not being They're not being 324 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 1: They're being critiqued to some degree for getting the steel 325 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: done with Tyrod Taylor. That I understand the skism, and 326 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a good day to be a 327 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: Bills fan. I think it's a lot of wheel spinning, 328 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: and the Bills have been doing that for two well. 329 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: I don't think the forty Niners fans and I don't 330 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: think they are should get overly excited about Brian Hoyer. 331 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: I don't either. I think it's mega patch no h yeah. 332 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: He think about what he did in Chicago. He played 333 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: pretty well, what are you doing us? He played pretty well? 334 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 1: He's we know who he is. He's exactly is like 335 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: the definition of the guy to just get you back, 336 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: you know who's in a bad spot by Jets because 337 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer was a nice mega patch situation. Tyrod Taylor 338 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: they had eyes on and you know where we're getting 339 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: back on potentially now, Greg, I know you're excited about 340 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,719 Speaker 1: this Geno Coaster. Well, we'll see if that happens. It's 341 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,479 Speaker 1: either j Cutler or Geno Coaster. Now that's where we're at. 342 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: I think it's Cutler color has got to go somewhere, 343 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: or it's or it's Deshaun Watson. They draft someone, well, 344 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,479 Speaker 1: I mean, why why I don't have to sign up 345 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: for Geno Smith? Because we're not really hearing about the 346 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: Jets right now. Anyway, going after a quarterback, they might 347 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: not want to advertise that. Um, what about old Pierre 348 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: Garson in San Francisco. I mean that's not the only, uh, 349 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: the only signing that's going on. Tell us about it. 350 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just saying San Francisco is that team 351 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: this year that's gonna spend a lot. Like we're taping 352 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: this Wednesday afternoon. I think by the time we tape 353 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: again on Friday, they'll have spent a lot more money. 354 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: Like they're not afraid to go over what people would 355 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: think about the market value. So I bet Howyers getting 356 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: good money and Garson is getting sixteen million dollars in 357 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: two thousand seventeen, it's gonna be I think it was 358 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 1: about twenty two over two years, so eleven per year. 359 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: It's frontloaded, but Pearegson is gonna be one of the 360 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: highest paid receivers in the league. And that kind of 361 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: it just makes me think they're gonna keep spending like crazy, 362 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: like this is just the beginning for San Francisco. Well, 363 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: you see that Kyle Say, he's bringing in his guys, 364 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: guys didn't know his system and can teach it to 365 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: any other new players that come in there. That shouldn't 366 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: be surprising to anyone. I like that they added Kyle 367 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: Uschak too. I think that's a that's a kind of 368 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 1: player that Shanahan can do a lot with. Very productive 369 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 1: in Baltimore. And you're right, I think Shanahan, of all 370 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 1: the new coaches, is the guy that again, it's another 371 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: thing when you're successful in the playoffs and everyone's watching you, 372 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: his stock rose so high that players want to go. 373 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,479 Speaker 1: They watch what happened to a guy like Taylor Gabriel 374 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: who was cut last offseason and is now on and 375 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: you know, game Good Morning Football this morning as their 376 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: star guest. I mean, it's like you suddenly go from 377 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,719 Speaker 1: a nobody to a household name in one season. If 378 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: you're plugged into the right offense. Shanahan, I I hate 379 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: being the person that is does this, but after having 380 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: like listened to him at the super Bowl and and 381 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: then the combine, I'm kind of all in on Kyle Shanna. 382 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: Like I've been one over of his like his confidence 383 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: and his experience. I think the fact that he's been running, 384 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, an offense for nine years that it's good 385 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: he didn't get a head coaching job. He was just 386 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: so like open and frank, I think, and confident. I 387 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: think it'll it'll take time for him, but I'm kind 388 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: of buying that that he can turn that around there sometimes. 389 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: I mean, a likable coach has never failed in the NFL, 390 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 1: so you're probably I don't even know if he's likable, 391 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: but just just the confidence in the combination of confidence 392 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: in sparts and experience and age, like it's an it's 393 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: a nice mix to take a chance on counterpoint. He 394 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: could be an overconfident bozo, I felt, but I was surprised. 395 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: Has had a few a few strange breaks with teams too. 396 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 1: It's just not this is guy he's had sing That's 397 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: what kind of I like that maybe they're getting that 398 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: I know it's he's still relatively young, but maybe he's 399 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: a little more mature that that he was before. I 400 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 1: was almost surprised he left. There was like this feature 401 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: and we're off topic here in the in the chronic 402 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: in the San Francisco Chronicle, which details, you know, him 403 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: and his wife's relationship, and it it details after the 404 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: super Bowl, how like Kyle Shanahan like collapsed in the 405 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: ball essentially crying after the super Bowl. I was like, 406 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm a little surprised, like he's letting that out there, 407 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: be so vulnerable. Tell me more about the Behind Closed 408 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Doors with Kyle some feature it was good. Do we 409 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: give any credit to John Bringe? I think, I mean 410 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 1: John Lynn. I wonder if this goes well for the night. 411 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: Is the one thing I'll say is there may be 412 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: more teams willing to not just bring their general manager 413 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 1: up from the twenty five year old scouting career where 414 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 1: you see everything the same way as everyone else around you, 415 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: and they bring people in from different areas. I feel 416 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: like it's premature to I'm not saying it already happens. 417 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: I just killed them. I listen, let's see what happens 418 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: with it. But they are making things happen. They just 419 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 1: paid five million dollars a year in the fallback. I 420 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: know they're they also paid Earl. They went out of 421 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: their way to pay Earrol Mitchell. This is the podcast, 422 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: this is the episode where we praised those teams, and 423 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: then you know, you know, coming mid and mid November, 424 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 1: we'll see no. I said five million for a fullback. 425 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. I mean, I'm not praising that. 426 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you are west same fans love to 427 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: see their team be active on March eighth and ninth, 428 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: But where what does it lead you in the middle 429 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: of the fall. Here's an active team, the New York Giants, 430 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: as we noted earlier, say I noted Greg way Ball, 431 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall. Uh he has jumped across town, is changing 432 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: address as in northern New Jersey. Uh he is moving 433 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 1: to the New York Giants. Rap sheet reported this earlier 434 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 1: and now he is uh signing a two year deal 435 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: where twelve million. He was slated to make seven and 436 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: a half million with the Jets. So he did take 437 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: a pay cut to go to the Giants and uh 438 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: he I think he spoke on a conference call where 439 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: he said he could have made more money elsewhere, but 440 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: he wanted to play with uh West, stifle your laughter 441 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: here a Super Bowl contender and he wanted obviously he 442 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,239 Speaker 1: didn't say this, but he wanted to stay in New 443 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: York for the post career opportunities, although inside the NFL 444 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: could be over there. He hit it at that nothing 445 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 1: that matters, who cares? But anyway, Brandon Marshall West joins 446 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: a wide receiver group that includes Sterling Shepard and of 447 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: course Eldell Beckham. What do you think about this move? 448 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: It's a great fit till it's not. I mean, it 449 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: looks great on paper, and you could see this working 450 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: out wonderfully. Their offense has a renaissance, they have a 451 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: great wide receiver Corps wide receiver wasn't the issue last 452 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: year anyway. But it's a great fit until you see 453 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: two of the biggest divas of the twenty one century, 454 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham and Brandon Marshall yelling at Eli Manning or 455 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 1: Ben McAdoo on the at each other or at each other. 456 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: It could go either way. I could see this being 457 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: a team that was deep in the playoffs. If Eli 458 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: Manning's throwing problems for the final two months of last 459 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: season were purely arm tiredness or something like that, not 460 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: a precursor of what's to come. Or it could go 461 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 1: the other way where blows up in their face. Uh. 462 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: Marshall's one year moved from one of the best, uh, 463 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: the best season of his career, where he had a 464 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen catches and led the league in touchdowns 465 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: and had over fourteen hundred yards receiving. Uh. He looked 466 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: steps slower last year, right, And I know the Jets 467 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 1: had quarterback problems. Uh, we all know that, but he 468 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: wasn't the same guy last Year's gonna be thirty three. 469 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: So I don't think it's like a home run move 470 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: by the Giants, but it's also a move I can 471 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: get behind. And and I saw one kind of tweet 472 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 1: that was I thought was Acidiner was like, oh, this 473 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: move shows you what the Giants think about the maturity 474 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 1: of Odell Beckham that he could handle this type of situation. 475 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: What they just love the fit. Possibly they look at 476 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: the paper too, and they love the way the roster 477 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: looks with Brendan Marshall as as a starter, and they're 478 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: rolling the dice a little bit. This is he wanted 479 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: to go. It's rare a player almost. He feels like 480 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: he chose them without a playoff. He that's a great 481 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: that's a great point. I I took this quote. I 482 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: listened to he was talking about just how he's been 483 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: treated and everything the last few days, and he says, 484 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: now I can understand why everybody holds the Giants organization 485 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: so high, sticking your craw that you know, go from 486 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: one one team to the other and you meet it's 487 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: kind of like, hey, the big brother. They're the classy, 488 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: classy guys. There's no it's like such a it's such 489 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: a big difference between the two organizations that that just 490 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: to me, that's what we've been hearing about the Giants forever, 491 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: that they're very well run organization and people love speaking 492 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: highly of them. I like this new new phase Dan 493 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: has entered where you completely you cannot rankle him with 494 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: the Jets right now, they're so far away that I 495 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: I can't. I got a long road get in all 496 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: your shots. Now he's taking them. It's akin to win. 497 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 1: I attempted to get off the Browns a train a 498 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: couple of years ago and was told I was not 499 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: allowed to handle that totally different entirely to just never 500 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 1: bought it, we never believe, entirely different. You were retiring 501 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: as a Browns fan, I believe is where you were 502 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 1: going with it. I am more. I am looking at 503 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: this from the big picture of viewpoint that I'm gonna be. 504 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: The Jets are gonna be taking some shots, and so 505 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: is the fan base for a couple of years. So 506 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: you can't get two worked up right now. I think 507 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: West is onto something seeing how this could blow up. 508 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 1: I thought this is a good move. I mean, you're 509 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: you're placing Victor Cruz with Brandon Marshall. That is a 510 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: nice upgrade, even if he's a step slow. But just 511 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 1: imagine if they're passing attack is as bad next year 512 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: as they were this year, and there wasn't a lot 513 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: of yards to go around there, and it's just it's 514 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: a it's a bad recipe. If you want to look 515 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: on the bright side, the Brandon Marshall honeymoon usually last 516 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: at least one year before they could work. It could 517 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: also not work, and not work in a really bad way. 518 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: We'll see moving on. Mike Lennon, before today was the 519 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: bell of the ball at the quarterback position. In the 520 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: free agency, which is still hard for me to say, 521 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: um in a lot of ways, but that's just the 522 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: way it is. That's the market. Uh. And here's the thing. 523 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 1: Despite the fact that he's in demand, several teams would 524 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: be interested in his services. We continue to hear in 525 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,479 Speaker 1: this from rap sheet and Uh Mike Garifolo that Glennon 526 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: has his eye and the Bears. The feeling is mutual. Uh. 527 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: We're talking fourteen to fifteen million dollars a year. And 528 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: if when free agency officially begins tomorrow, don't be surprised 529 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: if this is the one of the first things that 530 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: comes across. Uh, if not before then that Glennon and 531 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: the Bears are in bed together on a new deal 532 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: and he is their new quarterback. Greg, I feel like 533 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: I've talked enough about Mike Glennon to last me a lifetime. 534 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 1: At this point. They haven't even cut j Cutler. By 535 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: the way, we're kind of waiting. We're waiting for that 536 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: other shoot a drop. I want to see if he 537 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: gets the money everyone was saying, because it doesn't seem 538 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: like there's other teams really in on, right did the Bears? 539 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: Is that why there hasn't been any news yet because 540 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: the Bears found out they were bidding against himself. That exactly, 541 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: That's that's almost why I want to talk about like 542 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like the Jets are really in on it. 543 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: The Bills are now already out, are already out, So 544 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: it's really the Jets. And maybe that's why it's almost 545 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: silly to we've criticized the Bears and talked about this 546 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: money's gonna get. Let's see what he gets. Let's see 547 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 1: what the structure is. Let's see if it's more than 548 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: one year past guaranteed money. Like I, I believe he 549 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: has a chance to be good and so that he's 550 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: worth taking a chance on. And he's only started eighteen games, 551 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 1: and he's had some really good performances, So let's see. 552 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 1: I think it'd be worth taking a risk at a 553 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 1: certain level. And I suspect it's not going to be that. 554 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: Is there a wild card team other than the Jets 555 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: and the Bears? Here? Could the Texans get in the mix? Well? 556 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: What about what about the Bucks making and they tried 557 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: to get him back they had they offered him, I 558 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: mean solid money. What if they came back into the mix. 559 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: But he wants to start, they said they offered supposedly 560 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: they offered him eight a year, which shows that they 561 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: really think he's good, but it's still a backup. I 562 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: don't think the Texans are sneaky for Glennon, but I 563 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: think they could be sneaky for Cutler if they lose 564 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: that on Romo. I like that. La la uh, quick 565 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: little break. If we're at the point where we're getting 566 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: excited about Jay Cutler, then hey, football has reached the 567 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: new low point for me, and then fifth football has 568 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: been at a low point for me since about two 569 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: thousand and five because I've been riding that chain. It's 570 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: very yeah for j Culor. To excite any fan base, 571 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: you have to be really in the gutter, and brock 572 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: Osweidler is the gutter. Yeah, I can't. Before before we 573 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: move on, I just want to say we were supposed 574 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: to do an NFL Network hit today, but we're not 575 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: valued highly in this company, so we were wiped off 576 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: off the books when the Tony Romo news came. But uh, 577 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: that's not even the big story of this group and 578 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: NFL Network. The big story I wanted Greg ask you 579 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: about it was I watched your hit you did the 580 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: touch screen yesterday and you did a really nice job 581 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: with it. But I wanted to get your opinion on this, 582 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Here with NFL dot com is 583 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal dot com dot com dot com. Just when 584 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: you thought you were one of them, they've pat you 585 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: on the head and then you send you back NFL 586 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,719 Speaker 1: dot com. Rosenthal, I mean, I've had a big spot. 587 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: Yeah I was there and it didn't even it didn't 588 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: even cross my mind that an insult or not you 589 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: give me a break. What do you think was? I 590 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: mean some host on host crime here. You know you're putting, 591 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, Amber Theo Harrison a tough spot. I'm sure 592 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: she's gonna appreciate her voice slowed down to a drunk 593 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: gnome speed. I believe Greg is beingt I don't think 594 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: that he cares much about being known as NFL. This 595 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: is a bit on your show that is utter nonsense 596 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: from West. Yeah. I don't know how much you paid, Well, 597 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: it cares very very much about it. Who cares what 598 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: they're what they're saying? As the like the intro to 599 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: hear As long as they put him on TV, that's 600 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 1: all that matters. They patch on your head and they 601 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: gave you a little cart in the milk and set 602 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: you back here. It's like, what a title? What a 603 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: titles mean? What you know? What is your title on 604 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: your little NFL lanyard thing? Mine said? I got it today, 605 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: It said like a new one content editor. I got 606 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: one for a new one for a first already getting new. 607 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: You're getting new building up for the first one with 608 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: a picture it said, senior content editor. What does that 609 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,719 Speaker 1: even mean? I didn't even know that. Take a lot 610 00:31:55,800 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: of cash? How much do you make? Does it? Um? So? 611 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: All right? So you're not reading into it. No, it 612 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: could have been. It was kind of Freudian maybe on 613 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: the part of the people across the hall. It's all, well, 614 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: you know, they've they've done a good job promoting our 615 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: top one oh one throughout the week, and I think 616 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: they generally say NFL dot COM's you know, it makes sense, 617 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: it's on NFL dot com. Yeah. But my point, Greg 618 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: is that you've been doing more and more stuff from 619 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: the camera. At what point it's not like they're calling 620 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: him NFL dot Com is Brian Billick, even though he 621 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,719 Speaker 1: has a column and it, I mean, it's just about respect. 622 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: What about you need to go over there and crack 623 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: some skulls. What about this theory the NFL networks, Greg Rosenthal, 624 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: is a movement that is self contained, entirely inside this podcast, 625 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: which they don't listen to. It may not even be 626 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: on their radar that if you would want that or 627 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: we would want that. Alright, let's move on, Cults tight 628 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: end news, get excited. We'll start with Jack Doyle, who 629 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: signed a three year, nineteen million dollar deal with the 630 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: team that UH. The team announced that on Tuesday another 631 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: two million available in incentives. O'doyle rank number sixty on 632 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: our top one on one free agent to Doyle from anyway. 633 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: Jack Doyle was a known as a blocking specialist behind 634 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,719 Speaker 1: Kobe Fleemer and Duane Allen. Fleaner left last year, went 635 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: to New Orleans. Allen signed a extension or a new 636 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: deal with the Cults last spring, and now he's out 637 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: the door because Duyne Allen, on the same day we 638 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: learned about Doyle's new deal, was traded to the New 639 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: England Patriots, a trade UH that keeps um the Patriots 640 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: well stocked a tight end with Martell S. Bennett looking 641 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: more and more certain that he is leaving the Tea 642 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: for one year. But now you import Duane Allen, who 643 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: maybe Greg is not as good as Martell s Bennett 644 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: in terms of a dynamic playmaker when when Bennett's healthy, 645 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: but he's a well run rounded tight end that you 646 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: would not be surprising if he is a real producer 647 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: in Foxboro. No, because he's been a great red zone 648 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: player throughout his career. I saw a stat that he's 649 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: in the top four since he entered the league in 650 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: terms of converting red zone targets to touchdowns. Grob Grankowski 651 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: on that list too. He's a good blocker. Bill Belichick 652 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 1: has talked about him as one of the best blockers 653 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: that that he's seen a few years ago. But he 654 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: hasn't been healthy, so they're taking they're taking a pretty 655 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: big risk. The trade terms are literally the exact same 656 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: as the Marte tell Us Bennett trade they sent. They 657 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: basically got a starting quality tight end to move down 658 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: from the fourth to the sixth round. So that's great, 659 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: and they're only paying him ten million total over the 660 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: next two years. It's a chance worth taking. I like it. 661 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: Smart move. The Colts paid Dwayne Allen almost twelve million 662 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: dollars last year, so the front the deal was front loaded. 663 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 1: Now the Patriots get the cheap section of it. But 664 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: he was outplayed by Jack Doyle last year. Jack Doyle 665 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: had a good season and Jack Doyle was their second 666 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: leading target. No one else was close. Yeah, Duyne Allen 667 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: a good red zone target, had more touchdowns than Doyle. 668 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 1: But I think it's a good It's still a good 669 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: pick up for the Patriots in the sense that he's 670 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 1: a high potential player of it. You'd have to call 671 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: Duyne Allen one of the more disappointing players in recent years. 672 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,439 Speaker 1: I think he was a one time making the leap 673 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: candidate for the right reason. For the looks in theory, 674 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: he's one of the few tight ends who can block 675 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: well at the line of scrimmage, move the chains, and 676 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: be a red zone weapon. He's a complete all around 677 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 1: tight end when he's on the field, which and you 678 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: know Dan he's off, you plug him into New England, 679 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen to him? Oh? Well, he It doesn't 680 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,399 Speaker 1: quite qualify as as I stayed I think a few 681 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:53,720 Speaker 1: weeks ago the oh Patriots move of the off season. 682 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 1: But it's kind of close because I know Dayne that 683 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: remember that Sleepwalk Jets Colts Monday Night game in early 684 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: December when Alan three touchdowns in that game. Uh, this 685 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: past season, he has that ability and I'm sure if 686 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: he stays healthy, he's gonna have a nice season. But 687 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: now you have to like injury prone tight ends in 688 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: New England. That's the other way to look at it. Well, 689 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 1: you needed another quality guy, think to back up Gronkowski, 690 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: but you don't want to pay him nine million dollars 691 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 1: that Bennett's gonna cost. This does sort of I mean 692 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: to Flake Gates in the rear view mirror after they 693 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl after it, but this really hammers 694 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: home the point that I mean they're now doing trades 695 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: with the Colts. I mean that's a that's a sign 696 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 1: like Bill Polian is long gone. Ryan Grigson, who I 697 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: don't think they ever would have done a trade with, 698 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 1: He's long gone. It's like, it's a little surprising to 699 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: see the Colts. It almost worries me. You know that 700 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 1: the Colts send you know another a f C rival 701 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: send trade. It's a it basically moved down from the 702 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 1: fourth to the sixth round just they basically gave away 703 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: to it. So the Cults are gonna cut the way now, 704 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,879 Speaker 1: and I think Chris Ballard's gonna be a good value. Yeah, 705 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: that's about. They've stocked bolt some draft picks. They've got 706 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: a lot of compensatory picks to the Colts. Uh moving, 707 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,320 Speaker 1: so a lot of things happening, keep rolling the Ravens. 708 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: They lose Rick Wagner. Jesus Christ, they lost Rick Wagner. 709 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 1: Do you want to circle back to Tony Ramo? I 710 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: feel like we gave him a little short drift. Seriously, 711 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: we should talk about our big We had a big 712 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 1: screaming match between me, Greg guys Well, I got Rick 713 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: Wagner News. What were you gonna say? Though? Basically meet 714 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: you in a shadowy leak figure screaming about whether Tony 715 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 1: Romo should be number one on our free agent list 716 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: or not. I would have called screw, but it got 717 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: a little tense. At one point, Uh, West got a 718 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: little you know, I stepped into the danger zone a 719 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: little bit. At one point, you got a little snippy 720 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: saw figure. You had one line, it's a little snippy. 721 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 1: What wasn't it was basically how you talk to everyone, 722 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: but in this case he was like your boss's boss's 723 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: boss's boss. You said something like I wou think it 724 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: was something on the lines of I'd love to know 725 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 1: where you keep your time machine or I'd love to 726 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 1: know where you keep your something or other. You know, yeah, 727 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,440 Speaker 1: where your injury prediction your injury injury prediction meter. If 728 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 1: he keeps the injury predictor behind his couch and listen, 729 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: that man does not suffer for smart Alex doesn't suffer fools, gladly, 730 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:19,720 Speaker 1: that's why you've not gotten a new lanyard. Bat Shadowy 731 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: lead figure and I get along just fine and always have. 732 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 1: And by the way, Romo ended up number one. Before 733 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: we move on to Wag he ended up number one. 734 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: I would I agree with up next, I want to 735 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: talk through it. I didn't want to just you know, 736 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: award a guy who hasn't been able to stay healthy 737 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: for three straight games in two straight years. You know, 738 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: just assume it. I grant you all over those points. 739 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: And yet any good, anybody who has a chance to 740 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: be a franchise quarterback is worth it. The the Bears 741 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: let al Sean Jeffrey get to the market, our number 742 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: one player on the list. They let him get the 743 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: market with no wide receivers behind him on the on 744 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 1: the roster. There's no way the Cowboys would let Tony 745 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: Romo get to the market if they didn't already have 746 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: the answer that Prescott there. I mean, putting Romo anywhere 747 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: other than number one would have been a great gimmick 748 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: to get this one oh one list back into the 749 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,359 Speaker 1: New News very quickly. Really, I mean, you're gonna put 750 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 1: all Sean Jeffrey, who's also what injury prone and has 751 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 1: a suspensions hanging over his neck over Tony Romo? That 752 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,800 Speaker 1: would be. But if you're if you're setting the the 753 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: odds on Tony Romo, like Tony Romo plays half half 754 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: of next season like over under, like that's close to 755 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: fifty fifty. So if you have a player where he's 756 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: thirty seven years old and there's like a very good chance, 757 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: isn't there a very good chance that he just gets 758 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 1: hurt and it's just a total disaster. I mean, oh, 759 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: we really we blew it with Tony Romo. We forgot 760 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: to rank Don Terry Poharts, big deal. Here's the thing, 761 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: people forget about Romo's injury issues. He had that ludicrous 762 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: decision to scramble in the preseason game and he broke 763 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,240 Speaker 1: his back or whatever. The hell, he did to himself, 764 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: so that obscured the fact that entering the season the 765 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: back was always an issue. But the main concern was 766 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: that he was coming back from a another collar bone injury, 767 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 1: this time a surgery where they shaved off part of 768 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: the bone to put in a plate. Now so we 769 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,879 Speaker 1: don't even know. He could literally signed a massive deal 770 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: with Denver or Houston or whoever and take one hit 771 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,800 Speaker 1: and that that surgically repaired or twice surgically repaired clavical 772 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: goes and it's all over. He's the He's a bitter 773 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: injury risk than even Peyton's actually true. But he could 774 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 1: also lead the Broncos and bract into the Super Bowl, 775 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: which al Sean dreff is not going with anyone. I'm 776 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: with you, and that's why I agreed on it. But 777 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: when I think it was partly because I wrote the 778 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 1: news and and go into the list, the list is crazy. 779 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: I wrote the two broken collar bones, UH, one compression 780 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:50,240 Speaker 1: fracture in his back, disc surgery to transverse process fractures 781 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 1: in his back, and assists removed from his spine. And 782 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: he's thirty seven and not necessarily a guy who you know, 783 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: you assume is going to age gracefully. Oh, he certainly 784 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: is an agent graceful. What is that his body is 785 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: based on complete remission as a person he is though 786 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 1: he seems like a stand up guy. I heard some 787 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:15,879 Speaker 1: talk that he's like inspired, he's been he is too. 788 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 1: He is exactly two days older than me. I've heard 789 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 1: that he's been inspired by Tom Brady to kind of 790 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 1: really get his conditioning and all this. I don't know 791 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 1: if it's Is it too late now? No, I don't 792 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: think it's the last What why not be inspired a 793 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,800 Speaker 1: couple of years ago to do that Tom Brady? I 794 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: think if you look at Roma, I mean, he didn't 795 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 1: look like a guy who is necessary coming up next? 796 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 1: Wag the dog Rick Wagner. Unbelievable, This might end up 797 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: the agent signing. There is all these clowns and so uncomfortable. 798 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: He went off his precious little order to talk about 799 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 1: interesting guy. Because here's here's the truth. Let's pull back 800 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: the curtain. Greg privately will tell us any show over 801 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 1: forty seven minutes should be dragged into the recycled bin 802 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: and trash imediately. So it's like, here's the old zouser 803 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 1: trying to keep the show moving, got a lot of 804 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: stuff to get to right now. We're at the uh 805 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 1: oh God. If we don't keep talking about Tony Rubble 806 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 1: will never have another chance between now. In week one, 807 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: it's like, let's circle, which is fine. We did. It 808 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 1: was fun. We talked about injuries. But it's like, let's 809 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: let's not pretend all of a sudden, now you love 810 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,399 Speaker 1: to beef up a show. There is a fourteen year 811 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 1: career in Dallas that he came in Eastern Illinois. I'm 812 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: just saying this is you. Chapter three of this commentary. 813 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: The host has asked clearly for the conversation to move on. 814 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 1: Rick Wagner, Yeah, or NFL dot com, Greg Rosenthal dot com, 815 00:42:50,840 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 1: NFL dot com dot com. Fourteen years for Tony Romo? 816 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: Is that right? That's who you are, a little kid 817 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: from Eastern Illinois. Quarterback ups and downs? Where does Ricky 818 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 1: Wragner rank on your Rickey Rinking the dog behind Ricky 819 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: Henderson and Ricky Water. You want a hot take on 820 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 1: old Rick Springfield. This is a red flag for Riley Reef. 821 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:24,240 Speaker 1: They had a right tackle that's supposedly the top tackle 822 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: or one of the top two tackles available, and they 823 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: got they let them go so that they can bring 824 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 1: in the old Rickster. Wait till the Ravens replaced Ricky 825 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: Wagner and then you'll talk about the red flag that 826 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 1: is Ricky Wagner. But they're not going to pay a 827 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 1: guy that much money. Rap Sheet reports that Wagner's deal 828 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: will eclipse nine million dollars per year. That's it's a 829 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: new high at the position. That makes Brian Brian Bulaga's 830 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:54,320 Speaker 1: deal look like you know what's stupid this is? You 831 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,440 Speaker 1: know this would if I this could be a get 832 00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: off my think, a really low low watted to get 833 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: off my right Why why is the the highest paid 834 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 1: right tackle in the league? Why would he he's the 835 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: third teen highest paid left tackle. Is it really that 836 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: pig of a difference? Way on the other side? I think? 837 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,839 Speaker 1: But isn't right tackle almost as valuable at this point 838 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,800 Speaker 1: as left tackle? Is it really that pig of a difference. 839 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 1: There's some bad left tackles, That's what I'm saying. Getting 840 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: paid a lot of money. I'm saying it's a valuable spot. 841 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 1: Pay the man, Greg, Do you mind if I move 842 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: on to now let's talk Rick all day? Uh, Adrian Peterson, 843 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 1: you know the name. He might be uh willing according 844 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: to Chris Westling's latest piece to give the Patriots a 845 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 1: team friendly deal in free agency. Not not even my 846 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 1: latest Adrian Peterson piece. Wow. Anyway, here's the truth. The 847 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 1: Pats not atop his list because he likes the Raiders 848 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 1: and the Seahawks. Those are his preferred destinations. According to 849 00:44:53,880 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 1: Stacy Dale's uh and you know what, wes you'ld uster 850 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 1: has got the Raiders as as the pick. But I 851 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 1: also heard in our Sandwich trust but also heard that 852 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 1: the report out there that the interests on the Raiders 853 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:11,360 Speaker 1: side not as strong as Peterson's interests for the Raiders. 854 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 1: So maybe we got to pump the brakes, both you 855 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: and I and Mark. I believe Mark, we'll get to 856 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,800 Speaker 1: work on that son well. I think he has a 857 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 1: much better chance of going to the Raiders than the Seahawks. 858 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: And the reports have come out even stronger that the 859 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: Seahawks have said no, we're find it running back. And 860 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 1: we've also seen reports that the that the Patriots still 861 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 1: are a possibility. I think what you said that the 862 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: Raiders aren't as interested in him as maybe he's interest 863 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,879 Speaker 1: in the Raiders is true. For the entire league. We've 864 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: heard We've heard a lot about Adrian Peterson, you know, 865 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 1: wanting to go to certain teams. We haven't heard anything 866 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 1: about teams really showing heavy interests other than Minnesota. What's 867 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,239 Speaker 1: what the Indrian Peterson's dad in the mix pipe down? 868 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,760 Speaker 1: It's never a good idea when the dad start getting 869 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 1: voted left and right about their sons. This is a 870 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,919 Speaker 1: legendary first ballot Hall of Fame running back. He's thirty 871 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,879 Speaker 1: two years old. He's a man, for Christ's sake. Uh, Dad, 872 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 1: you wouldn't want Keith out there representing you know. I 873 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 1: love my old man, love Keith Hansas, but I can 874 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 1: handle my own business. I'm a grown man. It's bordering 875 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: on Marcus vic territory. I mean, is there? Why what 876 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: is the rush to get Adrian Peterson today? I think 877 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,240 Speaker 1: they're weeks could go by before he signs with anyone 878 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: that would have been a good prop. I wonder how 879 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,320 Speaker 1: long it will take Peterson to come off the market. 880 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 1: Doesn't seem like people are knocking doors down to get 881 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: a hold of him right now. I think there's so 882 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,400 Speaker 1: many good running backs in this running back draft, and 883 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: then there's plenty of solid running backs available in free 884 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: agency Latavious Murray, uh Le, Garrett Blunt. Who am I 885 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 1: forgetting Jamal Charles. I mean, there's just there's guys out 886 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: there that you're right, not ex Birkhead. People are gonna 887 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 1: wait for the market to come down, wait a few days. 888 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 1: They're not probably priorities. I'm gonna circle back to Romo again. 889 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:08,360 Speaker 1: Really immediately, your entire life savings, which I know in 890 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,800 Speaker 1: this room myself included not a lot, but you have 891 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 1: to wage your life savings on this Tony Romo. We 892 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 1: don't know where he's playing, but we assume he's a 893 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:26,319 Speaker 1: starter over under starts this season, and I'll go over. 894 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,439 Speaker 1: But I'm not risking very much at all. You're talking 895 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: about my well, you gotta. You get your car repossessed? 896 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: Do you lose your lease? You gotta. I'm not comfortable. 897 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: I'm really not losing. I've never really had anything, so 898 00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: I'm really I'm really flying by the seat of my pants. Here. 899 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: They take your laptop, your game pass, man, whatever. Do 900 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: they take children's toys away? The whole thing? Dren children 901 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 1: participating in this rooting for guys injuries is kind of 902 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 1: like rooting Mark saying, I don't you know, I don't 903 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 1: want to get into this far from my thing. I'll 904 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: go over. He's gonna he's going to start more than 905 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:02,800 Speaker 1: ten and a half games. I don't know how you 906 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: start half a game, but he's gonna. Yeah, it's it's 907 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 1: uh less than eleven, he's gonna start eleven games or more. 908 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 1: All right, you got the over I'm putting about. I'm 909 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: putting about total on it. Don't forget your the Jetta 910 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:27,320 Speaker 1: to take it. I don't care about that thing. What 911 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 1: we're saying is we got nothing over here. I know you. 912 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:31,919 Speaker 1: I mean you guys are focusing on your financial plate. 913 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: Someone take the plight I took. We both took the over. All, right, Greg, 914 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm taking the over because I don't want a root 915 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 1: for him to get hurt. You don't fun. I would 916 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,359 Speaker 1: love wouldn't it be fun to have Tony Romo kind 917 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 1: of have that Super Bowl run? So That's what I'm writing. 918 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:51,840 Speaker 1: But the smart man takes the under that's all. Take it. 919 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that I want him to get hurt. 920 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if you want to if your life 921 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:56,800 Speaker 1: savings on the line, you have to remove Oh I 922 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 1: hope Tony is gonna be help because I gotta take 923 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 1: the under. How many seasons in his career has he 924 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,919 Speaker 1: made it over? Over? Eleven? Right? And now you spin 925 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 1: this to reality? Is that the type of guy you 926 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,439 Speaker 1: wanted to get into bed with for a lot of money. 927 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,359 Speaker 1: I'm saying the smart money would be statistics would say 928 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 1: there's a much greater chance of him playing more than 929 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 1: ten and a half games. Well, he hasn't too straight, 930 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 1: so that's you know, recent than it's recent. Well, he 931 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 1: starts twelve and you're living on a tent by the sea. 932 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: Even going were great for Tony, so that every everybody 933 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: wins out somebody three of the last seven he also 934 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 1: had that two thousand and ten. Now the oldest he's 935 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: ever been. Let's bring it back to the rick Yeah, 936 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: let's get take it back to Ricky. Now, how many 937 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 1: games does he play? Fourteen? I'm going over on fifteen over. 938 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:45,919 Speaker 1: He's gonna strain his hamstring in week six and miss 939 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: three weeks. Nice little combo, Taylor Decker, a lot of 940 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 1: hot takes. Washington Redskins general manager or well not for long. 941 00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:58,840 Speaker 1: Scott mcglewin not present at Redskins Park on Tuesday as 942 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 1: the team UH prepped for the starter free agency rap 943 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: sheet reported UH. And you know what else needs to 944 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 1: be said at this point, Greg, it's all the writings 945 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 1: on the wall or over under games is Scott McCluin 946 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 1: is your GM next year. I'm gonna start at a 947 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:17,320 Speaker 1: zero negative you go under zero. I but it's I. 948 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:19,880 Speaker 1: You know. The only thing is people. Obviously, if you 949 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,320 Speaker 1: cover the league, if you follow football closely, you know 950 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: that Scott mcluin came in with issues. Bottom line, is 951 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,760 Speaker 1: one of the considered one of the top film watching 952 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,840 Speaker 1: talent evaluators out there, and he I don't know what 953 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: the issues all right now, we don't know the whole thing, 954 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 1: but it's it's a sad story. How many more NFL 955 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: jobs does he get? I'll set the over under at 956 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 1: point five. I think he could get a consulting job. 957 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:50,240 Speaker 1: He was working like essentially remotely as a consultant for teams, 958 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: and maybe that's what you're doing. It was it was 959 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 1: a surprise that he got another chance to run a team, 960 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 1: and it would be tough for him for that to 961 00:50:58,480 --> 00:50:59,880 Speaker 1: happen again. But I could see him working in the 962 00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,760 Speaker 1: leagues certainly. Yeah, I guess I kind of actually meant GM, 963 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know. And the only thing we've 964 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: seen is there was a there was a tweet of 965 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 1: him walking his dog in all Redskins gear, not exactly incognito, 966 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: red Redskins pants, red Redskins top, red Redskins hat with 967 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 1: the big bushy Dave Letterman over on Romo, and they 968 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: took away his Redskins gear. Meanwhile, meanwhile, they're in free agency, 969 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 1: and it's unclear who's running the teams. I mean, what's 970 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: the general managers problem? General manager super Bowl? It's free agency. 971 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 1: I assume it's Bruce Allen, who once did have the 972 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 1: GM title. They have certainly plenty of people that were 973 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 1: working for Scott mcgoon and that can do this sort 974 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:44,839 Speaker 1: of stuff. But it's moving on. Durrell Revus. We don't 975 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:48,319 Speaker 1: know yet if we'll see him again in an NFL uniform. Uh. 976 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk reported that the quote current thinking among 977 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 1: those close to revs Uh is that he'd want eight 978 00:51:56,160 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 1: million or more to consider playing in sen Rivas. Of course, 979 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 1: guaranteed six million and his leftover money from the Jet 980 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 1: Spoon doggle uh So playing for anything less than that 981 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:11,879 Speaker 1: it would be losing money to play this year. Greg, 982 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 1: your thoughts on this? I know you well. What was 983 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: our prop was that? Did you say take me through that? 984 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:19,800 Speaker 1: I can't. I don't even remember. But I have some 985 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:24,080 Speaker 1: sandwiches on Darrell Rivas not playing again. I don't actually, 986 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 1: I think Connor put it out there that he would, 987 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: he would sign a two year deal. We had just 988 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: had a vigorous argument the show before that he'd even 989 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 1: play again. I was just kind of putting out there. 990 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna play, And this report certainly 991 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,320 Speaker 1: makes it sound like he's only gonna play if he 992 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 1: gets eight million dollars good luck. I mean, there's no 993 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 1: chance he there's no chance. So if he sticks to that, 994 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 1: he's his career is over. And Darrell Rivas has turned evil. 995 00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: But seriously, he has turned evil over the past three 996 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:53,800 Speaker 1: and sixty five days. And you're not just bringing the 997 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 1: player in with his diminished skills. You're bringing Darell Rivas 998 00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 1: the locker room presents in two years of that. Here's 999 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 1: what one general manager told the New York Daily News. 1000 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:06,319 Speaker 1: Have you seen his tape? I wouldn't let him play 1001 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 1: for me for free. Now that's just that's just one 1002 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 1: general manager. But if you're looking to eight million dollars, 1003 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 1: if that report is indeed true, which we're not at 1004 00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 1: the most telling part of the report to me was 1005 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 1: florio suggestion that he could collect the money from the 1006 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,719 Speaker 1: Jets in two thousand and sixteen and then return and 1007 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 1: play in two thousand seventeen, Like take a year off, 1008 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 1: take the money, forget that, and then come back. That 1009 00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 1: would be the I mean for a guy that has 1010 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 1: a reputation as a mercenary, and on some level that 1011 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 1: was unfair because he just was playing the game right 1012 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,920 Speaker 1: in his career. Now it's if he were to do that, 1013 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it goes the next level where the guy 1014 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 1: is just squeezing every penny out of everybody. I just 1015 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 1: had a sessler that Jeremy Bergerman will be writing an 1016 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 1: article in late June of two eighteen about the rail 1017 00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: Reeves his comeback pit wow with the Patriots. No, he's 1018 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: bid is trying to get teams interested in his coming, 1019 00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:07,319 Speaker 1: like the sad Tiki Barber coming him and Vince Young. Right, 1020 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,240 Speaker 1: this is a gym video and this is down fourteen 1021 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 1: pounds and he's squatting seven million pounds like every every 1022 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 1: one of those plates in the entire gym, and he's 1023 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 1: squatting it. It's like I'm ready for but it's like 1024 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:24,200 Speaker 1: that your thirty four dude, go home. It's like Tiki 1025 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 1: how to go home? He did? Now he's doing Geico commercials. 1026 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: He is probably pays well. Those guy go aheads got 1027 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 1: cleaned out in a divorce. If I'm not mistaken in 1028 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,640 Speaker 1: that broadcasting career never took off the way he expected 1029 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 1: it to. Little Tiki Talk has a radio show, national 1030 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 1: radio show. I've been good for ENID CBS. Jason Lockin 1031 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: for reports that there's a quote strong likelihood the Ravens 1032 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:57,120 Speaker 1: bring back free agent wide receiver Tory Smith, who was 1033 00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 1: cut um by the forty or used by the forty 1034 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: niners on Monday. So a reunion, Uh is a very 1035 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:10,439 Speaker 1: strong possibility. Chris Westling, maybe he should have never left. 1036 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:15,800 Speaker 1: He got paid. Uh. He seems a little duplicative with 1037 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:19,360 Speaker 1: Mike Wallace. But the Ravens are not deep at the 1038 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 1: wide receiver. I just don't know if it's as good 1039 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:23,879 Speaker 1: of a fit as it was a few years ago. 1040 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:27,920 Speaker 1: People talked about Mike Wallace is a potential cut because 1041 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,399 Speaker 1: he's making a lot of cash this year. I wonder 1042 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,239 Speaker 1: if they ever would do a Switchero. Yeah, they they 1043 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: talked like they were keeping Mike Wallace at the Combine, 1044 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 1: but that was before an old buddy Tory Smith became available. 1045 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 1: So I don't know if that would change change your mind. 1046 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 1: I think to your point that it's like Dan, it's 1047 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 1: it's you go to San Francisco for two years to 1048 00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:49,279 Speaker 1: make the money that you made. His production fell off 1049 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: a cliff because they had nothing going on at quarterback, 1050 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:55,920 Speaker 1: and now you're back in the free agency waters with 1051 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: your value greatly diminished. Versus No, I don't know. The 1052 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 1: Ravens weren't a playoff team, but a team that could 1053 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 1: have put you into January play where teams are watching 1054 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 1: you in the Winner all year long. You're selling yourself. Instead, 1055 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: you're on Chip Kelly's Niners, and your value couldn't be lower. 1056 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:11,320 Speaker 1: He's the perfect example because you gotta look at it 1057 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 1: this way. He had value left his the team that 1058 00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 1: drafted him to sign the big contract with a crap 1059 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,839 Speaker 1: team where he disappeared and got cut after two years, 1060 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,440 Speaker 1: and now he's back on the market at a diminished value. 1061 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:24,960 Speaker 1: Would you end up making more running in the long 1062 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 1: run if you just would have stayed with your original team, 1063 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 1: if they were interested in keeping you at a lesser number, 1064 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,680 Speaker 1: and then got the entire contract paid were an extension 1065 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: off that less money in the short run, more in 1066 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,800 Speaker 1: the long run. Learn your lesson from He's the reverse 1067 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 1: revis the in the other option. You you stick with 1068 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,480 Speaker 1: your team for a long time, you get into some issues, 1069 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:45,239 Speaker 1: you end up in Tampa Bay. You go win a 1070 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 1: Super Bowl in New England. Your value couldn't be hired. 1071 00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: The Jets pay you that value that couldn't be higher. 1072 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 1: You come back and suck royally. Yeah, he was a 1073 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,439 Speaker 1: unique player, Reeves mind. He pulled everything out of the hat, 1074 00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 1: all right. Got a lot more to get to, but 1075 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,200 Speaker 1: not a lot of times. So you know what that 1076 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:07,359 Speaker 1: means eight o'clock the life. Matt Jobs still getting paid, 1077 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,879 Speaker 1: can't I had? I forgot he was in the league. 1078 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,479 Speaker 1: But he signed a two year, nine million dollar deal, 1079 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,880 Speaker 1: Mark Sesso. That's four and a half million dollars to 1080 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 1: be Matt Job in two thousand seventeen. Yeah, you can 1081 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:21,440 Speaker 1: do fine. Is the sixty four best quarterback in football, 1082 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 1: or maybe the hundred and sixty four Denis Allen was 1083 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 1: right West the legend the forty Niners have agreed to 1084 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 1: terms with wide receiver Marquis Goodwin, a former Olympian and 1085 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,640 Speaker 1: also now a former Buffalo Bill great speed, maybe a 1086 00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 1: great fit West in that San Francisco offense. Well, I 1087 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,880 Speaker 1: think the easy observation is he wants to make him 1088 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 1: his version of Taylor Gabriel, and he's gonna find out 1089 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: that Marquis Goodwin is no Taylor Gabriel. You called it 1090 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 1: an easy observation. Gregg tweeted that very observation five minutes 1091 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 1: after I tweeted, I didn't even see that. But this 1092 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,920 Speaker 1: is my point was Kyle sam have just come all 1093 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:03,480 Speaker 1: the way around in West just crapped on his own 1094 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 1: saying Greg and I were not the only ones to 1095 00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 1: make this observation. My point was, Kyle Sanahan has such 1096 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 1: godlike powers he can turn someone as lousy as an 1097 00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,440 Speaker 1: NFL player as Marky's Goodwin into a great player. That 1098 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 1: would prove his god like powers. NFL Network insider Ian 1099 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 1: Rappaport reported Tuesday at the rams are and discussions with 1100 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,280 Speaker 1: several clubs about potentially trading away their top cover man, 1101 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:31,600 Speaker 1: Tremaine Johnson, Mark Sessler. What my thing is, it's meant 1102 00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 1: to be one of the best cornerback classes in recent history. 1103 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 1: Long time. Why are you going to sign up necessarily 1104 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:40,479 Speaker 1: unless you love this guy? For a ton of cash 1105 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:42,960 Speaker 1: for Tremaine Johnson. When you can, you can get them 1106 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 1: to the draft. Is this kind of like a Kirk 1107 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,800 Speaker 1: Cousins situation. You can see the Browns getting him right because, yeah, 1108 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 1: the Greg Williams connection. But Brown's drafted cornerback. Actually, don't 1109 00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 1: draft someone like you drafted two years ago? Who was it? 1110 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 1: Absolute nightmare? Did you guys really hire Greg Williams? You guys, 1111 00:58:58,440 --> 00:58:59,840 Speaker 1: I don't have anything to do with it. A lot 1112 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,640 Speaker 1: better than their last few defensive coordinators, I would say, 1113 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 1: I think so over that guy. Oh all right, what 1114 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,920 Speaker 1: do you got John Morton running your offense? Have a 1115 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 1: nice time with that head coach. Not Johnny john He's 1116 00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,920 Speaker 1: a man. Johnny Morton moving on Miami Dolpins will resign 1117 00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 1: defensive and Andre branch at three year, twenty seven seven 1118 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,080 Speaker 1: million dollar deal. Uh, he's now just behind Cam Wake 1119 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 1: among four three defensive ends in money making Greg worth it? No, 1120 00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 1: you want to sign Andre branch on the contract? They 1121 00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: signed him to last year. Get some good value, not 1122 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 1: not for this top shelf money. Barry Church, it's like 1123 00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:45,080 Speaker 1: he's leaving Dallas. Rap Sheet reports that barring a change 1124 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 1: of heart, the safety it's a weird one. The safety 1125 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 1: is expected to land with the Jaguars on a four 1126 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 1: year contract worth more than six million dollars per season. 1127 00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 1: Church rank number twenty nine on your top one on 1128 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 1: one list. Boys Wes Good signing by the Jacks three 1129 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:05,040 Speaker 1: and thirteen. I mean they do this every year. You're 1130 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 1: gonna go break the bank, make your starting line up 1131 01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 1: so much better, and then your quarterback hold you a safety. 1132 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: They were losing Jonathan Ciprian. They needed a safety. Uh 1133 01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 1: can you pause the music for one second? So, and 1134 01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 1: by the way, Jaguars come back to us. You hired 1135 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:26,000 Speaker 1: Tom Goughlin as your executive vice president, and now you're 1136 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:29,000 Speaker 1: selling shirt T shirts at your team shot all in 1137 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 1: with Coughlin.

I I don't know 1141 01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 1: that it's gonna be hard to pitch them as our 1142 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 1: annual type team. I don't think they want to be 1143 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:51,960 Speaker 1: pitched that way either. I UM.

You 1157 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 1: said that there might be some breaking news during this show. 1158 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:41,480 Speaker 1: You were right. Breaking news from Microadack ESPN. Buffalo Bill's 1159 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:45,080 Speaker 1: coach Sean McDermott has removed a pool table and video 1160 01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:47,760 Speaker 1: games from the locker room that we're installed during a 1161 01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:51,480 Speaker 1: two thousand and fourteen renovation. McDermott making moves. Isn't that 1162 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:53,440 Speaker 1: an old trick? Didn't Tom lind do that one year? 1163 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 1: Take the take the pool table away? You can't take 1164 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:02,000 Speaker 1: away the guy's pool table? How many years? Three? That's 1165 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:05,520 Speaker 1: Doug marone territory right back here in Jaguar. This is 1166 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:07,680 Speaker 1: a trope and he's gonna pay for the bills. Are 1167 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,240 Speaker 1: him for a hell of a season? Recommence eight o'clock 1168 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:17,160 Speaker 1: to light. Chandler Jones and the Cardinals finalizing a five 1169 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 1: year contract extension that will keep the pass rusher in Glendale. 1170 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 1: They had previously tagged Greg Rosenthal Chandler fourteen point six 1171 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:29,440 Speaker 1: million for the season. They're keeping them in business. That 1172 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 1: worked out to be a very nice trade for the Cardinals, 1173 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 1: and I believe the Patriots use that pick to sign 1174 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 1: one Cyrus Jones, who had a disastrous rookie season. I 1175 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 1: think it all worked out for the Patriots as well. 1176 01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:47,840 Speaker 1: I guess it's the end for Elvisdomerville. Elvis has left 1177 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:50,840 Speaker 1: the building. Has anyone ever done that? For? Uhdoomerville was 1178 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,360 Speaker 1: released by the Ravens on Wednesday. That saves over six 1179 01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:58,600 Speaker 1: million in cap space Dumerville. Uh, very very tasty option 1180 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:02,360 Speaker 1: for the Graybeards who are management is really were poring 1181 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 1: over a lot of these releases and he could be 1182 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 1: a real important player for the San Diego Graybeards. Aged 1183 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 1: thirty three, five time pro bowler, but hasn't done much 1184 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: mark in the last couple of years. Time to go, 1185 01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:15,600 Speaker 1: No facts needed. I don't know how to top your 1186 01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 1: gray Beards update. That's obviously the a storyline here. The 1187 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 1: rest is, I'm not going to make a facts machine joke. 1188 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:24,680 Speaker 1: That's very tired. Let's move on. Let's move on. Vernon 1189 01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:28,440 Speaker 1: Davis staying in Washington. Uh, the tight end thirty two 1190 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:31,920 Speaker 1: years old, forty four catches for three yards of two 1191 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: touchdowns last season. And you know what, Greg, he was 1192 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:37,800 Speaker 1: frisky last year after being kind of off the grid 1193 01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 1: for a couple of years. Now bought his career another 1194 01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:42,400 Speaker 1: couple of years. That acting career is gonna have to 1195 01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 1: wait for Vernon Davis or forever. What will Hollywood do? 1196 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: And Redskins fans, I guess this is the sun You're 1197 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 1: you guys aren't making moves resigning Vernon Davis. Yeah, that 1198 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 1: is that is not going to keep them happy. Greg, 1199 01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 1: as much as you Greg hates the Redskins, let's put 1200 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 1: that out there.
