I've never I never thought 74 00:03:06,988 --> 00:03:08,828 Speaker 8: that's a wise thing to do. I want to be, 75 00:03:08,948 --> 00:03:11,108 Speaker 8: you know, try to be in this tournament every single year. 76 00:03:11,948 --> 00:03:14,108 Speaker 8: But yeah, when you walk around this building and you 77 00:03:14,148 --> 00:03:16,148 Speaker 8: talk to the different people, I think this goes throughout 78 00:03:16,148 --> 00:03:21,068 Speaker 8: our building and how important winning championships is. I don't 79 00:03:21,108 --> 00:03:23,268 Speaker 8: think that would you know, I don't think that would 80 00:03:23,308 --> 00:03:25,108 Speaker 8: be something they would question. 81 00:03:25,908 --> 00:03:26,828 Speaker 3: Leaders in the clubhouse. 82 00:03:26,868 --> 00:03:30,028 Speaker 2: For me, for fascinating divisions, go to the AFC West 83 00:03:30,068 --> 00:03:33,268 Speaker 2: and the NFC North. If you had an intriguing storyline, 84 00:03:33,308 --> 00:03:35,988 Speaker 2: Cynthia that your eyes are just inherently drawn to in 85 00:03:36,028 --> 00:03:37,948 Speaker 2: this division the NFC North, where did they go? 86 00:03:38,388 --> 00:03:40,548 Speaker 3: I mean, let's keep it right there in Green Bay. 87 00:03:40,908 --> 00:03:43,308 Speaker 6: I think it's interesting to like get rid of jy 88 00:03:43,428 --> 00:03:46,228 Speaker 6: R Alexander right now. I mean it just happened, yeah, 89 00:03:46,268 --> 00:03:49,228 Speaker 6: a couple of weeks ago. So I'm curious what's going 90 00:03:49,228 --> 00:03:51,468 Speaker 6: on with this defense because it feels to me like 91 00:03:51,708 --> 00:03:54,628 Speaker 6: the Packers the Chiefs had TV people, they put it 92 00:03:54,668 --> 00:03:57,068 Speaker 6: really well, like they win a lot of games, but 93 00:03:57,268 --> 00:03:59,668 Speaker 6: they haven't kind of gone all the way since Aaron 94 00:03:59,788 --> 00:04:02,108 Speaker 6: was there a while ago. So I'm very curious to 95 00:04:02,188 --> 00:04:05,548 Speaker 6: know when it comes to this defense, what's Jeff Hafley doing? 96 00:04:05,668 --> 00:04:07,268 Speaker 3: Right, Like, what's going to happen here? 97 00:04:07,308 --> 00:04:10,468 Speaker 6: Because this division I can't believe I'm saying this, And Jamie, 98 00:04:10,468 --> 00:04:12,428 Speaker 6: I think you'll probably agree that since when are we 99 00:04:12,508 --> 00:04:15,148 Speaker 6: like the NFC North, the Margins are Razor Thin crazy, 100 00:04:15,468 --> 00:04:18,308 Speaker 6: It's crazy. So when you're looking at this pressure rate, 101 00:04:18,308 --> 00:04:21,068 Speaker 6: when you're looking at the ability for the corners to 102 00:04:21,148 --> 00:04:23,628 Speaker 6: buy some time for the front to get that pressure. 103 00:04:23,868 --> 00:04:26,148 Speaker 6: Looking at twentieth in the NFL last year, like, okay, 104 00:04:26,188 --> 00:04:28,988 Speaker 6: that's a little worse than bottom half, like, but it 105 00:04:28,988 --> 00:04:31,748 Speaker 6: could get worse without Jay r Alexander or you know, 106 00:04:31,828 --> 00:04:34,148 Speaker 6: corners giving you some time to be able to bring 107 00:04:34,188 --> 00:04:36,148 Speaker 6: that pressure. So I don't know what I'm looking at 108 00:04:36,148 --> 00:04:38,828 Speaker 6: with this Packers team. They Paidjornan Love, they draft a 109 00:04:38,868 --> 00:04:41,348 Speaker 6: wide receiver, it felt like they had three YU wide receiver, 110 00:04:41,388 --> 00:04:43,148 Speaker 6: But who was their wide receiver one last year? 111 00:04:43,508 --> 00:04:44,068 Speaker 4: What's going out? 112 00:04:44,108 --> 00:04:44,228 Speaker 7: Like? 113 00:04:44,428 --> 00:04:47,708 Speaker 6: Very very confusing stuff outside of Josh Jacobs, who is 114 00:04:47,708 --> 00:04:50,228 Speaker 6: absolutely a great pick for your fantasy football. 115 00:04:50,268 --> 00:04:52,468 Speaker 2: And it's not like you have some low brow like 116 00:04:52,668 --> 00:04:55,348 Speaker 2: crop A quarterbacks you're going against either, Like the Vikings 117 00:04:55,348 --> 00:04:56,628 Speaker 2: are right there. They don't know what they have with 118 00:04:56,628 --> 00:04:58,868 Speaker 2: their quarterback, like Kayleb Williams could hit a second. 119 00:04:58,668 --> 00:05:01,428 Speaker 3: Your surprise and Jared Goff great. 120 00:05:01,548 --> 00:05:03,708 Speaker 2: So, Kamanda, what do you got for intriguing storyline in 121 00:05:03,708 --> 00:05:04,188 Speaker 2: this division? 122 00:05:04,588 --> 00:05:06,188 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think they're just a start off. 123 00:05:06,308 --> 00:05:08,748 Speaker 1: I think this is the best division in football right now, 124 00:05:08,788 --> 00:05:09,588 Speaker 1: the NFC North. 125 00:05:09,628 --> 00:05:12,108 Speaker 7: I mean, these are all good teams. These are teams 126 00:05:12,108 --> 00:05:14,108 Speaker 7: that are going to win games this year. I don't 127 00:05:14,108 --> 00:05:16,068 Speaker 7: think any of them will be bad team. 128 00:05:16,148 --> 00:05:18,468 Speaker 1: But let me say this, I don't think I've ever 129 00:05:18,548 --> 00:05:21,988 Speaker 1: seen a team go all in the way the Vikings 130 00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:25,268 Speaker 1: have gone all in on JJ McCarthy without even seeing 131 00:05:25,268 --> 00:05:28,188 Speaker 1: this kid really play a snap of a regular season. 132 00:05:28,428 --> 00:05:30,508 Speaker 1: I mean, if there's a way to build around a quarterback, 133 00:05:30,668 --> 00:05:33,508 Speaker 1: you talk about the O line, bringing in both Ryan Kelly, 134 00:05:33,548 --> 00:05:36,188 Speaker 1: a four time Pro bowler, Will Fries who just got paid, 135 00:05:36,428 --> 00:05:39,548 Speaker 1: both from the same team, both interior guys who already 136 00:05:39,548 --> 00:05:42,788 Speaker 1: had that chemistry in jail, going on Jonathan Allen on 137 00:05:42,828 --> 00:05:43,868 Speaker 1: the defensive line. 138 00:05:43,788 --> 00:05:44,588 Speaker 7: Javon Hargrave. 139 00:05:44,668 --> 00:05:47,908 Speaker 1: I mean, they are really gearing up on both sides 140 00:05:47,948 --> 00:05:50,388 Speaker 1: of the ball and putting as much support as they 141 00:05:50,428 --> 00:05:53,388 Speaker 1: possibly can around JJ McCarthy. He's just got to go 142 00:05:53,428 --> 00:05:56,068 Speaker 1: out there and perform, So they're all in on him. Obviously, 143 00:05:56,108 --> 00:05:58,628 Speaker 1: they know some stuff in that building. They passed on 144 00:05:58,668 --> 00:06:01,028 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers in the offseason. They're all in on this kid. 145 00:06:01,228 --> 00:06:03,028 Speaker 7: At the end of the day, this team will go 146 00:06:03,188 --> 00:06:06,268 Speaker 7: as JJ McCarthy go. Let's see how it plays out. 147 00:06:06,388 --> 00:06:07,308 Speaker 7: I do excited about it. 148 00:06:07,348 --> 00:06:09,428 Speaker 10: Yeah, I do agree with agree with you Jason that 149 00:06:09,508 --> 00:06:12,268 Speaker 10: the NFC North is one of the better divisions in 150 00:06:12,308 --> 00:06:15,988 Speaker 10: this league. I do also think that this division has 151 00:06:16,028 --> 00:06:19,508 Speaker 10: the most turnover. You talked about Jay or Alexander Cynthia, 152 00:06:19,708 --> 00:06:22,228 Speaker 10: Jason Combinda, you talked about Jjon McCarthy. You could talk 153 00:06:22,228 --> 00:06:24,028 Speaker 10: about Ben Jonson going over to the. 154 00:06:23,988 --> 00:06:24,948 Speaker 4: To the Bears. 155 00:06:25,268 --> 00:06:28,028 Speaker 10: But I think the team that has a most change 156 00:06:28,428 --> 00:06:31,108 Speaker 10: is the Detroit Lions. So for me, the storyline that 157 00:06:31,148 --> 00:06:33,948 Speaker 10: really resonates with me is can the Lions do what 158 00:06:33,988 --> 00:06:37,348 Speaker 10: they've done the past two years NFC North champs without 159 00:06:37,388 --> 00:06:40,668 Speaker 10: their offensive coordinator, without the defensive coordinator, and Jason you 160 00:06:41,228 --> 00:06:43,468 Speaker 10: like this? For me, this is going to answer the 161 00:06:43,548 --> 00:06:45,788 Speaker 10: question at the end of this year, can. 162 00:06:45,708 --> 00:06:47,228 Speaker 4: Culture win you games? 163 00:06:47,388 --> 00:06:50,908 Speaker 10: Because Dan Campbell is a culture man, He's a culture piece. 164 00:06:51,148 --> 00:06:54,268 Speaker 4: He's built that that franchise around culture. 165 00:06:54,268 --> 00:06:56,348 Speaker 10: You see the way they talk, how they play that 166 00:06:56,468 --> 00:06:59,188 Speaker 10: smash mouth going for it on fourth down. Can the 167 00:06:59,348 --> 00:07:02,148 Speaker 10: Lions still look the same? Can their record speak for 168 00:07:02,188 --> 00:07:05,428 Speaker 10: itself without Aaron Glenn and with without Ben Johnson. So 169 00:07:05,468 --> 00:07:07,468 Speaker 10: that's the storyline that I'm going to be paying attention 170 00:07:07,548 --> 00:07:10,548 Speaker 10: to going throughout this season, and I. 171 00:07:10,548 --> 00:07:12,668 Speaker 4: Think culture wins you games and it wins. 172 00:07:12,428 --> 00:07:16,428 Speaker 10: You championships, and Dan Campbell just seems to be that guy. So, Jason, 173 00:07:16,428 --> 00:07:18,228 Speaker 10: you've been there, how do you feel going into this 174 00:07:18,268 --> 00:07:21,148 Speaker 10: twenty twenty five season without those coordinators there? 175 00:07:21,548 --> 00:07:22,708 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'd agree with that. 176 00:07:22,788 --> 00:07:24,948 Speaker 1: I just want to add some context to what you 177 00:07:24,988 --> 00:07:26,588 Speaker 1: said there, just because I was there. 178 00:07:26,628 --> 00:07:26,868 Speaker 7: You know. 179 00:07:27,188 --> 00:07:29,388 Speaker 1: I was there when we first brought in Johnny Moe 180 00:07:29,388 --> 00:07:31,868 Speaker 1: as an offensive analyst and he worked closely with the 181 00:07:31,908 --> 00:07:34,628 Speaker 1: wide receivers and with the quarterbacks, with Jared Goff specifically. 182 00:07:34,908 --> 00:07:37,108 Speaker 1: I was there when Calvin Sheppard, just three years ago 183 00:07:37,188 --> 00:07:39,988 Speaker 1: was named to the linebacker coach. This is an organization 184 00:07:40,068 --> 00:07:42,908 Speaker 1: where the coaches are also developed, and that does not 185 00:07:43,068 --> 00:07:46,068 Speaker 1: happen and in a lot of organizations where even the coaches, 186 00:07:46,108 --> 00:07:50,068 Speaker 1: the underlings, the position coaches are developed for bigger roles. 187 00:07:50,108 --> 00:07:53,748 Speaker 1: I remember we had certain practice periods where Calvin shepperd 188 00:07:53,748 --> 00:07:56,348 Speaker 1: would be the one calling the defensive plays or Johnny 189 00:07:56,388 --> 00:07:58,228 Speaker 1: mo would be calling the offensive plays. 190 00:07:58,508 --> 00:07:59,588 Speaker 7: That rarely happens. 191 00:07:59,628 --> 00:08:02,188 Speaker 1: Normally, the reps stay to the guys that are supposed 192 00:08:02,188 --> 00:08:05,588 Speaker 1: to be the guys. No, in Detroit there also developing coaches, 193 00:08:05,628 --> 00:08:08,828 Speaker 1: so they've actually been put in a lot of situations 194 00:08:08,868 --> 00:08:12,868 Speaker 1: and true crunch time game like situations in practice where 195 00:08:12,908 --> 00:08:15,428 Speaker 1: they've had to take on the role of defensive coordinator, 196 00:08:15,548 --> 00:08:18,068 Speaker 1: Johnny Mo taken on the role of offensive coordinators. 197 00:08:18,108 --> 00:08:21,468 Speaker 7: So at the very least they have been groomed. They 198 00:08:21,468 --> 00:08:24,148 Speaker 7: have been groomed to be the positions at their in now. 199 00:08:24,188 --> 00:08:27,148 Speaker 1: Obviously having the full job is another story, but at 200 00:08:27,228 --> 00:08:29,708 Speaker 1: least the reps are there, and that's why I feel very, 201 00:08:29,828 --> 00:08:33,108 Speaker 1: very confident in this transition of Calvin Shepherd and DC 202 00:08:33,228 --> 00:08:34,748 Speaker 1: and Johnny Mo to offensive coordinator. 203 00:08:34,788 --> 00:08:36,908 Speaker 2: Not for nothing, but I actually think Kayla williamsould write 204 00:08:36,908 --> 00:08:38,388 Speaker 2: a thank you note to the rest of the division 205 00:08:38,428 --> 00:08:41,588 Speaker 2: for having this much change because we're not talking about 206 00:08:41,668 --> 00:08:43,468 Speaker 2: I think some of the things that he's had to 207 00:08:43,468 --> 00:08:46,268 Speaker 2: go through this offseason or the improvements that he is 208 00:08:46,348 --> 00:08:49,108 Speaker 2: going to have to make inherently in his second year 209 00:08:49,148 --> 00:08:51,068 Speaker 2: in the NFL with a new head coach. So I 210 00:08:51,108 --> 00:08:53,388 Speaker 2: can't believe we didn't even say his name, frankly in 211 00:08:53,388 --> 00:08:56,268 Speaker 2: intriguing headline in this division compared to where we were 212 00:08:56,308 --> 00:08:59,028 Speaker 2: with this quarterback at this time last year. Nancy, that's 213 00:08:59,108 --> 00:09:01,588 Speaker 2: just one important player slash coach in this division if 214 00:09:01,588 --> 00:09:02,948 Speaker 2: you had to pick another one, because I don't think 215 00:09:02,948 --> 00:09:05,948 Speaker 2: you're going Kiala Williams here, who is your most important 216 00:09:06,068 --> 00:09:07,188 Speaker 2: character in the division. 217 00:09:07,228 --> 00:09:08,988 Speaker 10: And it's hard to pick a player that's the most 218 00:09:09,028 --> 00:09:10,828 Speaker 10: important player in the entire division. 219 00:09:10,868 --> 00:09:12,348 Speaker 4: So I'm going to have to lean towards. 220 00:09:12,148 --> 00:09:14,988 Speaker 10: A coach, And for me, the most important coach in 221 00:09:15,028 --> 00:09:18,308 Speaker 10: this division is Kevin O'Connell. If you look at he's 222 00:09:18,308 --> 00:09:21,988 Speaker 10: got to Minnesota in twenty twenty two. He had Kirk 223 00:09:22,028 --> 00:09:25,228 Speaker 10: Cousins for two years. Last year he had Sam Darnold. Obviously, 224 00:09:25,228 --> 00:09:27,188 Speaker 10: they drafted JJ McCarthy out of Michigan. 225 00:09:27,708 --> 00:09:30,948 Speaker 4: That was his guy. That was a guy that he wanted. 226 00:09:31,028 --> 00:09:33,908 Speaker 10: So for the since twenty twenty two, he's had guys 227 00:09:33,948 --> 00:09:34,388 Speaker 10: that he's. 228 00:09:34,308 --> 00:09:35,348 Speaker 4: Kind of acquired. 229 00:09:35,708 --> 00:09:38,588 Speaker 10: But now he's going into this season with the guy 230 00:09:38,628 --> 00:09:40,748 Speaker 10: that he wanted, the guy that they went out and 231 00:09:40,788 --> 00:09:43,748 Speaker 10: got in JJ McCarthy. And if anybody is confused about 232 00:09:43,748 --> 00:09:46,428 Speaker 10: what that dynamic could look like, look no further than 233 00:09:46,428 --> 00:09:48,988 Speaker 10: the Denver Broncos and Sean Payton and Bone Nicks. And 234 00:09:49,028 --> 00:09:50,668 Speaker 10: if you want to rewind it a little bit, Sean 235 00:09:50,708 --> 00:09:53,708 Speaker 10: Payton and Drew Brees, Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes. 236 00:09:53,748 --> 00:09:54,828 Speaker 4: You can even say Sean. 237 00:09:54,708 --> 00:09:58,468 Speaker 10: McVay and Matt Stafford. When the Rams acquired Matt Stafford, 238 00:09:58,468 --> 00:10:00,708 Speaker 10: they get a Super Bowl. So that's the type of 239 00:10:00,748 --> 00:10:03,748 Speaker 10: results you get when you marry a coach with the 240 00:10:03,828 --> 00:10:06,348 Speaker 10: quarterback he's been after for a long time. And I 241 00:10:06,388 --> 00:10:08,748 Speaker 10: think that's what they have over there in Minnesota. And 242 00:10:08,788 --> 00:10:12,668 Speaker 10: so I think that the most important player slash coach 243 00:10:12,988 --> 00:10:15,668 Speaker 10: is gonna be Kevin O'Connor out of Minnesota. 244 00:10:16,788 --> 00:10:17,868 Speaker 7: That's a great take, Matti. 245 00:10:18,148 --> 00:10:21,308 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the combo of Calvin Shepherd and 246 00:10:21,388 --> 00:10:25,788 Speaker 1: Aiden Hutchinson. Aiden obviously coming off a gruesome leg injury, 247 00:10:25,908 --> 00:10:27,988 Speaker 1: there's gonna be the questions of is he going to 248 00:10:28,068 --> 00:10:30,828 Speaker 1: return to form? As we all know, Aiden was at 249 00:10:30,908 --> 00:10:32,708 Speaker 1: seven and a half sacks on the way to a 250 00:10:32,748 --> 00:10:35,988 Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year type of season when he 251 00:10:36,108 --> 00:10:39,188 Speaker 1: did get hurt. Can he return back to form? We 252 00:10:39,308 --> 00:10:41,148 Speaker 1: know how the Lions looked at the end of the 253 00:10:41,228 --> 00:10:44,108 Speaker 1: year when that defense was injury ridden, So can this. 254 00:10:44,148 --> 00:10:45,308 Speaker 7: Defense get healthy again? 255 00:10:45,628 --> 00:10:48,428 Speaker 1: Will we have Aleen mcneilback, and what does that timeline 256 00:10:48,468 --> 00:10:51,068 Speaker 1: look like. Obviously they got Tyler Williams in the first 257 00:10:51,108 --> 00:10:53,788 Speaker 1: round from Ohio State. Mostly a run stuffer, though he's 258 00:10:53,788 --> 00:10:56,188 Speaker 1: not very productive in the pass rush. So are we 259 00:10:56,228 --> 00:10:59,188 Speaker 1: going to go back to those days the Detroit Lions wondering, man, 260 00:10:59,228 --> 00:11:03,428 Speaker 1: where's the pass production productivity? Because when it's not there, 261 00:11:03,548 --> 00:11:06,148 Speaker 1: this is a different team and that will open the 262 00:11:06,188 --> 00:11:08,628 Speaker 1: door for the Vikings, for the Bears to make it 263 00:11:08,708 --> 00:11:09,708 Speaker 1: run in this division. 264 00:11:09,868 --> 00:11:11,948 Speaker 7: So I'm going to go with Calvin Shepherd and Aiden Hutchinson. 265 00:11:12,268 --> 00:11:13,788 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm looking at that one. And it's funny that 266 00:11:13,788 --> 00:11:15,708 Speaker 6: we're all going with a coach here because I'm going 267 00:11:15,788 --> 00:11:18,228 Speaker 6: to round out this coaching cycle with Oka saying it's 268 00:11:18,268 --> 00:11:22,468 Speaker 6: Ben Johnson because they really reimagined everything from the interior 269 00:11:22,508 --> 00:11:26,548 Speaker 6: offensive line to figuring out exactly how they want to 270 00:11:26,628 --> 00:11:29,548 Speaker 6: run their pass catching game. Now he's there with Ryan Poles. 271 00:11:29,628 --> 00:11:31,948 Speaker 6: He basically told Ryan Poles what he wanted to do, 272 00:11:31,988 --> 00:11:34,308 Speaker 6: and Ryan Poles got the job done. Their defense is 273 00:11:34,348 --> 00:11:36,668 Speaker 6: maybe a little bit underrated. Hotel Adam Rank back to 274 00:11:36,668 --> 00:11:39,788 Speaker 6: that because we forget that, you know, Adam's mister Bears man. 275 00:11:39,868 --> 00:11:44,188 Speaker 6: But ultimately Ben Johnson not only did he now reimagine 276 00:11:44,228 --> 00:11:46,868 Speaker 6: the Bears in what he wants them to be, but 277 00:11:47,028 --> 00:11:48,868 Speaker 6: you know, he lays this void at the Lions. So 278 00:11:49,108 --> 00:11:52,148 Speaker 6: to me, he's the single most important person in general 279 00:11:52,188 --> 00:11:54,788 Speaker 6: in this division for wins, because if Kayleb Williams is 280 00:11:54,788 --> 00:11:56,988 Speaker 6: going to succeed, it's going to be because the game 281 00:11:57,028 --> 00:11:59,548 Speaker 6: plan that is set up for him works. Last year, 282 00:11:59,588 --> 00:12:01,428 Speaker 6: he was under all of the pressure, all of it. 283 00:12:01,628 --> 00:12:03,748 Speaker 6: He was under pressure all of the time. So when 284 00:12:03,788 --> 00:12:06,668 Speaker 6: you're looking at the difference now, will will Ben be 285 00:12:06,708 --> 00:12:08,628 Speaker 6: able to do what he did for Jared Goff? And 286 00:12:08,868 --> 00:12:10,868 Speaker 6: as much as they've advanced their O line and made 287 00:12:10,868 --> 00:12:14,108 Speaker 6: the interior specifically better, it's still not the Lions O line. 288 00:12:14,148 --> 00:12:15,508 Speaker 6: So are they going to be able to come up 289 00:12:15,508 --> 00:12:18,748 Speaker 6: with the run game tricks that they had in Detroit 290 00:12:18,948 --> 00:12:20,668 Speaker 6: that are going to really help Caleb Williams sixty. 291 00:12:20,908 --> 00:12:22,988 Speaker 2: I don't know, it's fascinating that you guys all say 292 00:12:23,028 --> 00:12:24,708 Speaker 2: like that has to be the coaches when it comes 293 00:12:24,748 --> 00:12:26,628 Speaker 2: to the characters, because actually, when I look at the Packers, 294 00:12:26,668 --> 00:12:29,068 Speaker 2: I think Jordan Love has to have some massive impact 295 00:12:29,068 --> 00:12:30,948 Speaker 2: on the team. Where does Jordan Love rank and your 296 00:12:30,988 --> 00:12:32,668 Speaker 2: impactful players in this division? 297 00:12:33,228 --> 00:12:35,988 Speaker 10: I would say that Jordan Love is extremely He's extremely 298 00:12:36,028 --> 00:12:37,828 Speaker 10: gifted when they're throwing the ball, But when you have 299 00:12:37,988 --> 00:12:40,908 Speaker 10: somebody like Josh Jacobs that really sets the tone for 300 00:12:40,948 --> 00:12:43,748 Speaker 10: that team. And there's always that question mark up who's 301 00:12:43,748 --> 00:12:46,228 Speaker 10: the wide receiver one on this team? I think that 302 00:12:46,308 --> 00:12:49,788 Speaker 10: kind of eliminates Jordan Love from being the most favorite 303 00:12:50,148 --> 00:12:52,588 Speaker 10: figure in this division for me, just because of their 304 00:12:52,628 --> 00:12:53,708 Speaker 10: identity down there in. 305 00:12:54,228 --> 00:12:55,188 Speaker 4: Pittsburgh in Green Bay. 306 00:12:55,268 --> 00:12:58,028 Speaker 2: And speaking of the word favorites, we are going to 307 00:12:58,308 --> 00:13:01,308 Speaker 2: play a big should game and it is July seventh, 308 00:13:01,588 --> 00:13:03,708 Speaker 2: just a healthy reminder as to where we sit in 309 00:13:03,708 --> 00:13:06,068 Speaker 2: the offseason. We're looking at the NFC and North right now, 310 00:13:06,148 --> 00:13:07,868 Speaker 2: Jason Kabindai will start with you. 311 00:13:08,068 --> 00:13:10,988 Speaker 3: Who should be the favorites. 312 00:13:10,548 --> 00:13:13,348 Speaker 2: Right now in the NFC North before we kick the 313 00:13:13,388 --> 00:13:13,828 Speaker 2: ball off. 314 00:13:14,228 --> 00:13:17,308 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is the key word here, guys, is should. 315 00:13:17,508 --> 00:13:20,588 Speaker 1: And it's got to be the Detroit Lions. I know, 316 00:13:20,708 --> 00:13:22,828 Speaker 1: I'm a Lions guy. I know you guys know it. 317 00:13:22,868 --> 00:13:24,468 Speaker 1: But it's got to be the Lions based on what 318 00:13:24,508 --> 00:13:27,908 Speaker 1: they did over the last two years. Unless the JJ 319 00:13:27,988 --> 00:13:30,908 Speaker 1: McCarthy comes out these first six games and looks like 320 00:13:31,028 --> 00:13:33,548 Speaker 1: the truth and looks like the next one, I just 321 00:13:33,588 --> 00:13:36,228 Speaker 1: don't see anybody challenging this team and what they've got 322 00:13:36,228 --> 00:13:39,428 Speaker 1: going on. I understand the turnover and the coaching, but 323 00:13:39,468 --> 00:13:40,908 Speaker 1: the players, for the most. 324 00:13:40,628 --> 00:13:41,468 Speaker 7: Part, are the same. 325 00:13:41,548 --> 00:13:44,068 Speaker 1: The mentality and the culture is still intact and that's 326 00:13:44,068 --> 00:13:46,428 Speaker 1: the reason why they're there, and I just don't see 327 00:13:46,428 --> 00:13:49,428 Speaker 1: that changing with Dan Campbell's still at the Helm. 328 00:13:49,548 --> 00:13:51,668 Speaker 6: I'm with you, I think the Lions again, I kind 329 00:13:51,668 --> 00:13:53,028 Speaker 6: of hate it. As a Lions fan, I'd rather be 330 00:13:53,068 --> 00:13:55,628 Speaker 6: an underdog. It just feels it feels more like my identity. 331 00:13:55,868 --> 00:13:58,628 Speaker 6: But ultimately I'm looking at this team and you know, 332 00:13:58,708 --> 00:14:00,028 Speaker 6: we talk about the quarterback position. 333 00:14:00,068 --> 00:14:01,308 Speaker 3: You ask about Jordan Levell. 334 00:14:01,708 --> 00:14:04,708 Speaker 6: Jared Goff being there really does mitigate a lot of 335 00:14:04,748 --> 00:14:08,108 Speaker 6: the sort of difference between coordinators too. He's had a 336 00:14:08,108 --> 00:14:11,188 Speaker 6: lot of experience with different places, coming from the Rams 337 00:14:11,188 --> 00:14:13,068 Speaker 6: and then now on the Lions, and now he's really 338 00:14:13,148 --> 00:14:14,748 Speaker 6: stepped into his own as a veteran. 339 00:14:14,948 --> 00:14:16,148 Speaker 3: I think that helps a ton. 340 00:14:16,428 --> 00:14:19,988 Speaker 6: But also the world comes down to trench play for me, 341 00:14:20,428 --> 00:14:22,348 Speaker 6: and I'm looking at this Lion's O line and I 342 00:14:22,348 --> 00:14:24,308 Speaker 6: love Frank Brag Now to me, he's a first Baut 343 00:14:24,308 --> 00:14:26,628 Speaker 6: Hall of Famer, it should be no question. But I'm 344 00:14:26,668 --> 00:14:29,628 Speaker 6: looking at their opportunity Chrishima Hogging like just to step 345 00:14:29,668 --> 00:14:31,828 Speaker 6: in there and take over. I think they're okay in 346 00:14:31,868 --> 00:14:33,548 Speaker 6: that regard. I think they have the best O line 347 00:14:33,548 --> 00:14:35,508 Speaker 6: in the NFC North for sure. And then on the 348 00:14:35,548 --> 00:14:38,388 Speaker 6: other side, I'm assuming in Hudgson is back to form 349 00:14:38,588 --> 00:14:40,668 Speaker 6: that will help out. I think that means that Terry 350 00:14:40,708 --> 00:14:42,588 Speaker 6: on Arnold the corner takes a big step forward to 351 00:14:42,628 --> 00:14:44,068 Speaker 6: because the front and the back works together. 352 00:14:44,148 --> 00:14:45,348 Speaker 4: So I just think they're. 353 00:14:45,188 --> 00:14:48,388 Speaker 6: Well positioned to kind of remain at least as the 354 00:14:48,428 --> 00:14:50,828 Speaker 6: favorites if they don't lose, like you know, their entire 355 00:14:50,868 --> 00:14:53,988 Speaker 6: team to be injured reserve again. I still think there's 356 00:14:54,068 --> 00:14:56,468 Speaker 6: a lot of great depth on that team. 357 00:14:56,508 --> 00:14:57,588 Speaker 4: We love football on this show. 358 00:14:57,708 --> 00:14:58,308 Speaker 3: We love football. 359 00:14:58,388 --> 00:14:59,948 Speaker 4: We don't like tiktac toe. It's not going to be 360 00:15:00,028 --> 00:15:01,508 Speaker 4: through in a row. It's going tick tac tote, no 361 00:15:01,828 --> 00:15:04,108 Speaker 4: tic tech. No for me, I would love to go to. 362 00:15:04,508 --> 00:15:06,708 Speaker 10: Right, but I'm gonna pivot a little bit and I'm 363 00:15:06,748 --> 00:15:09,828 Speaker 10: gonna say it's gonna be Minnesota Soda should be the 364 00:15:09,908 --> 00:15:13,068 Speaker 10: favorites in this division. The reason being is that since 365 00:15:13,108 --> 00:15:17,068 Speaker 10: the merger in nineteen seventy, there have been eighteen division 366 00:15:17,188 --> 00:15:20,028 Speaker 10: champs that the very next year had to lose both 367 00:15:20,068 --> 00:15:24,388 Speaker 10: their offensive coordinator and their defensive coordinator. This is the record. 368 00:15:24,428 --> 00:15:28,348 Speaker 10: Thirteen teams that lost both the OC and DC had 369 00:15:28,388 --> 00:15:31,628 Speaker 10: losing records. The next year, four teams had a better record, 370 00:15:31,668 --> 00:15:33,508 Speaker 10: just four and one had the same. When you look 371 00:15:33,548 --> 00:15:36,828 Speaker 10: at the Detroit Lions, you lost two big pieces We've 372 00:15:36,868 --> 00:15:39,348 Speaker 10: been talking about it all segment, those two big pieces 373 00:15:39,348 --> 00:15:41,988 Speaker 10: in their OC and their DC. But then you pivot 374 00:15:42,028 --> 00:15:44,868 Speaker 10: to the Minnesota Vikings. The only turnover they had guys 375 00:15:45,428 --> 00:15:47,388 Speaker 10: is a quarterback. And I'm gonna say it right here 376 00:15:47,388 --> 00:15:49,708 Speaker 10: on this show. JJ McCarthy is more fit for that 377 00:15:49,828 --> 00:15:53,508 Speaker 10: system than who they had previous because Kevin O'Connell has 378 00:15:53,548 --> 00:15:57,348 Speaker 10: his guy. That's who Kevin O'Connell wanted was JJ McCarthy. Now, 379 00:15:57,348 --> 00:16:00,868 Speaker 10: you can only imagine the only weakness of that Minnesota. 380 00:16:00,428 --> 00:16:02,188 Speaker 4: Vikings defense was offense. 381 00:16:02,588 --> 00:16:04,868 Speaker 10: Was that pressure and Sam Darnold having to deal with 382 00:16:04,868 --> 00:16:07,028 Speaker 10: that pressure. You saw late in the season when they 383 00:16:07,028 --> 00:16:09,028 Speaker 10: played the Detroit Lions, how there was. 384 00:16:09,028 --> 00:16:11,668 Speaker 4: Just struggle after struggle after struggle. Well, you got a 385 00:16:11,668 --> 00:16:12,468 Speaker 4: guy like JJ. 386 00:16:12,348 --> 00:16:15,708 Speaker 10: McCarthy who can obviously run, he can extend place. 387 00:16:16,668 --> 00:16:17,988 Speaker 4: Add that into that factor. 388 00:16:18,148 --> 00:16:20,268 Speaker 10: The Minnesota Biking is last year when fortune and three, 389 00:16:20,308 --> 00:16:22,348 Speaker 10: they were tied for a second at NFC, and I 390 00:16:22,388 --> 00:16:22,748 Speaker 10: think that. 391 00:16:22,708 --> 00:16:24,348 Speaker 4: They're going to do a lot better this year. So 392 00:16:24,388 --> 00:16:27,348 Speaker 4: I think the Condes should be. 393 00:16:28,868 --> 00:16:30,268 Speaker 3: Benda's breaking the segment. 394 00:16:32,428 --> 00:16:35,468 Speaker 1: That's all I'm hearing at. 395 00:16:36,788 --> 00:16:39,268 Speaker 10: Well, that's what that that's That's what I see is 396 00:16:39,468 --> 00:16:41,908 Speaker 10: I think the Minnesota Biking should be there are one 397 00:16:41,948 --> 00:16:45,908 Speaker 10: game behind the Detroit Lions, Cabinda, just one, just one? 398 00:16:46,028 --> 00:16:48,388 Speaker 2: Yeahinda, I'm going to push back on what you were 399 00:16:48,388 --> 00:16:51,468 Speaker 2: saying about how they they've never seen JJ McCarthy play 400 00:16:51,468 --> 00:16:53,908 Speaker 2: a real snap of football in order to know if 401 00:16:53,908 --> 00:16:56,268 Speaker 2: he's going to succeed in the NFL. How great a 402 00:16:56,308 --> 00:16:58,588 Speaker 2: football do we see in terms of snap play from 403 00:16:58,628 --> 00:17:00,428 Speaker 2: Sam Darnold for them to know that he was going 404 00:17:00,508 --> 00:17:02,188 Speaker 2: to be the right guy to bring into that roster. 405 00:17:02,428 --> 00:17:03,828 Speaker 2: I think so much of it has to do with 406 00:17:03,868 --> 00:17:06,668 Speaker 2: the coaches and Josh McCown being the quarterback coach there 407 00:17:06,668 --> 00:17:09,068 Speaker 2: and Kevin O'Connell having his hands all over this. Those 408 00:17:09,108 --> 00:17:12,228 Speaker 2: two guys must know something that's in the water, the 409 00:17:12,268 --> 00:17:14,828 Speaker 2: lake water perhaps in Minnesota for this two thing to 410 00:17:14,868 --> 00:17:17,508 Speaker 2: work for JJ McCarthy. So I pushed back on the 411 00:17:17,548 --> 00:17:20,028 Speaker 2: skeptic a little bit, because they must know what works 412 00:17:20,028 --> 00:17:20,828 Speaker 2: within their system. 413 00:17:21,348 --> 00:17:24,668 Speaker 1: My issue with that take is you guys are expecting 414 00:17:24,748 --> 00:17:29,108 Speaker 1: JAJ McCarthy to have a CJ. Stroud or Jaden Daniels 415 00:17:29,108 --> 00:17:29,788 Speaker 1: type of season. 416 00:17:30,108 --> 00:17:31,988 Speaker 7: That's the type of season he needs for everything. 417 00:17:31,988 --> 00:17:35,148 Speaker 1: You guys are talking and saying for it to happen. 418 00:17:35,548 --> 00:17:39,348 Speaker 7: These are big outliers. What CJ. Stroud did complete outlier. 419 00:17:39,668 --> 00:17:42,068 Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels did it, he won uped him, which was 420 00:17:42,188 --> 00:17:45,108 Speaker 1: almost impossible as a rookie. Like, these are things that 421 00:17:45,388 --> 00:17:47,788 Speaker 1: are like not going to happen again, And I for 422 00:17:47,868 --> 00:17:49,908 Speaker 1: sure don't see it happening out of JJ McCarthy. 423 00:17:49,948 --> 00:17:52,588 Speaker 10: I just don't, Jay said, Jason, hold on, you said 424 00:17:52,628 --> 00:17:54,628 Speaker 10: that we're expecting him to have a CJ. 425 00:17:54,788 --> 00:17:57,308 Speaker 4: Stroud Like here, I'm not expecting him to have a 426 00:17:57,308 --> 00:17:57,548 Speaker 4: c J. 427 00:17:57,668 --> 00:18:00,548 Speaker 10: Stroud type year, but I am expecting him to have 428 00:18:00,588 --> 00:18:03,668 Speaker 10: a better year than Sam Darnold had with Minnesota and 429 00:18:03,988 --> 00:18:07,068 Speaker 10: the year that Sam Donald had got him paid in Seattle, 430 00:18:07,108 --> 00:18:09,548 Speaker 10: the year that Sam Donald had got him number two 431 00:18:09,548 --> 00:18:12,068 Speaker 10: in the NFC North, the year that Sam Donald had 432 00:18:12,108 --> 00:18:14,788 Speaker 10: got him fourteen and three. And so what I am 433 00:18:14,868 --> 00:18:17,908 Speaker 10: saying is with those same pieces with JJ McCarthy and 434 00:18:17,948 --> 00:18:20,628 Speaker 10: there who oh, by the way, wanted national championship over 435 00:18:20,628 --> 00:18:22,988 Speaker 10: there in high school and won a national championship for 436 00:18:23,148 --> 00:18:25,268 Speaker 10: Sam's on my marter, Go Blue, Michigan. 437 00:18:25,548 --> 00:18:26,428 Speaker 4: That's like a sin for me. 438 00:18:27,708 --> 00:18:31,668 Speaker 3: Wow, I likes my husband if he's saying boom. 439 00:18:31,468 --> 00:18:33,428 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I love I love Sam that much. That's 440 00:18:33,428 --> 00:18:35,908 Speaker 10: why it's become like a mutual respect there. But what 441 00:18:35,948 --> 00:18:39,108 Speaker 10: I am saying is JJ McCarthy is a better player 442 00:18:39,628 --> 00:18:40,668 Speaker 10: than Sam Donald. 443 00:18:40,828 --> 00:18:43,028 Speaker 4: I'm not saying Sam Donald isn't good. I'm saying that 444 00:18:43,028 --> 00:18:43,348 Speaker 4: if you. 445 00:18:43,308 --> 00:18:46,388 Speaker 10: Look at the tooth, Jason Cabindo, you have Sam Donald 446 00:18:46,428 --> 00:18:47,268 Speaker 10: and JJ McCarthy. 447 00:18:47,268 --> 00:18:47,988 Speaker 4: Who are you taking? 448 00:18:48,348 --> 00:18:50,588 Speaker 7: I'm taking Sam Donald because I don't know me. 449 00:18:50,908 --> 00:18:51,668 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say hype. 450 00:18:52,508 --> 00:18:53,668 Speaker 7: I don't know after what. 451 00:18:53,828 --> 00:18:54,228 Speaker 4: I don't know. 452 00:18:54,388 --> 00:18:56,988 Speaker 2: Seeing him in the Kevin O'Connell system, I don't know. 453 00:18:57,188 --> 00:18:57,708 Speaker 4: We saw it. 454 00:18:57,788 --> 00:19:00,708 Speaker 7: One preseason game.

You know, rookie year Pro Bowl in 506 00:21:10,388 --> 00:21:12,828 Speaker 1: his first season, teams are still trying to figure him out. 507 00:21:13,188 --> 00:21:15,588 Speaker 1: You know, we all know Manti knows about the sophomore 508 00:21:15,628 --> 00:21:18,188 Speaker 1: slump that can happen. I still think he was efficient. 509 00:21:18,228 --> 00:21:21,308 Speaker 1: He only dropped in like sixteen catches one hundred and 510 00:21:21,388 --> 00:21:24,188 Speaker 1: seventy or so yards drop. But at the same time, 511 00:21:24,188 --> 00:21:27,388 Speaker 1: their target's really diversified, and I think this year Jery 512 00:21:27,388 --> 00:21:29,868 Speaker 1: gooff is really gonna lean on Sam Laporta a lot. 513 00:21:29,908 --> 00:21:32,548 Speaker 1: Obviously they got that change in offense coordinator. He's gonna 514 00:21:32,588 --> 00:21:35,268 Speaker 1: look for that target outside of amanas Saint Brown, it's 515 00:21:35,348 --> 00:21:37,828 Speaker 1: kind of be his super consistent guy. That's gonna be 516 00:21:37,868 --> 00:21:39,588 Speaker 1: Sam Laporter for the Detroit Lions this year. 517 00:21:39,628 --> 00:21:40,708 Speaker 7: I think he has a. 518 00:21:40,748 --> 00:21:43,628 Speaker 1: Year three jump and actually he clips his his rookie 519 00:21:43,708 --> 00:21:44,548 Speaker 1: year production. 520 00:21:44,948 --> 00:21:48,188 Speaker 10: I like Sam Laporter Capindo. I also mentioned you also 521 00:21:48,228 --> 00:21:50,228 Speaker 10: mentioned the sophomore slump. This guy that I'm going to 522 00:21:50,268 --> 00:21:51,708 Speaker 10: refer to that I think is going to have a 523 00:21:51,788 --> 00:21:53,988 Speaker 10: huge year and going to be better next year. 524 00:21:54,308 --> 00:21:55,308 Speaker 4: As Lati McConkey. 525 00:21:55,868 --> 00:21:57,868 Speaker 10: He has number one hundred and I'm one hundred percent 526 00:21:57,908 --> 00:21:59,588 Speaker 10: sure it's going to be better. It's gonna be starting 527 00:21:59,588 --> 00:22:02,588 Speaker 10: from the bottom now he's here. See think about Lati 528 00:22:02,628 --> 00:22:05,228 Speaker 10: mcconnky as this he plays a certain position. That position 529 00:22:05,308 --> 00:22:08,548 Speaker 10: is a wide receiver and his quarterback, Justin Herbert, ever 530 00:22:08,588 --> 00:22:11,188 Speaker 10: since he got into the NFL, has loved throwing to 531 00:22:11,228 --> 00:22:14,348 Speaker 10: the slot every single time. The guy who played in 532 00:22:14,348 --> 00:22:17,628 Speaker 10: the slot position was Keenan Allen, and Keenan Allen went 533 00:22:18,348 --> 00:22:21,908 Speaker 10: crazy with the LA Chargers while he was there with 534 00:22:22,028 --> 00:22:24,148 Speaker 10: Justin Herbert at the helm. So as long as as 535 00:22:24,188 --> 00:22:27,108 Speaker 10: long as Justin Herbert is there and Lad McConkey is 536 00:22:27,148 --> 00:22:29,148 Speaker 10: in the slot, it's going to be one of those 537 00:22:29,148 --> 00:22:30,188 Speaker 10: peanut butter jelly guys. 538 00:22:30,188 --> 00:22:32,068 Speaker 4: It's going to be a great little marriage. 539 00:22:32,508 --> 00:22:33,188 Speaker 3: I mean he was. 540 00:22:33,308 --> 00:22:35,708 Speaker 6: He's actually like in my top ten for wide receivers 541 00:22:35,708 --> 00:22:38,948 Speaker 6: for fantasy, so I'm total. But another guy that I'm 542 00:22:38,988 --> 00:22:41,548 Speaker 6: liking on that list is Drake London. When I'm looking 543 00:22:41,548 --> 00:22:43,588 Speaker 6: at the opportunity with Michael Panicks Jr. 544 00:22:43,828 --> 00:22:46,388 Speaker 3: To have the full season with a chief digging, I'm giggling. 545 00:22:46,428 --> 00:22:48,748 Speaker 2: I'm giggling because one time I didn't pick Drake London 546 00:22:48,788 --> 00:22:50,748 Speaker 2: and a fantasy list and Adam rankl like actually came 547 00:22:50,788 --> 00:22:52,948 Speaker 2: for me on social media, so I was like, my god, 548 00:22:53,108 --> 00:22:55,308 Speaker 2: Drake London love is out there and now you have love. 549 00:22:55,188 --> 00:22:55,588 Speaker 4: For him too. 550 00:22:55,868 --> 00:22:58,228 Speaker 3: I definitely have love for him as well. I love it. 551 00:22:58,268 --> 00:23:00,828 Speaker 6: But with again with Michael Pegs Junior having like his 552 00:23:01,628 --> 00:23:02,708 Speaker 6: you know, legs under him and. 553 00:23:02,708 --> 00:23:04,948 Speaker 4: A little bit more of an opportunity. 554 00:23:04,588 --> 00:23:06,708 Speaker 6: Shows everything he's got. I think this is going to 555 00:23:06,708 --> 00:23:09,228 Speaker 6: be a really interesting season for Drake London. I am 556 00:23:09,268 --> 00:23:12,028 Speaker 6: staying away from Kyle Pitts in every single fantasy league. 557 00:23:12,068 --> 00:23:13,148 Speaker 3: That's an Adam Rank thing. 558 00:23:13,188 --> 00:23:15,228 Speaker 6: And Adam, when you go for Kyle Pitts, then we 559 00:23:15,308 --> 00:23:17,748 Speaker 6: will you know he's Adam Rank is now on the 560 00:23:17,788 --> 00:23:19,468 Speaker 6: show this as well because we keep conference. 561 00:23:19,508 --> 00:23:20,948 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, no Kyle Pits No. 562 00:23:21,068 --> 00:23:23,348 Speaker 2: Okay, but we know that we've learned this lesson. Now 563 00:23:23,428 --> 00:23:26,108 Speaker 2: we've got the question is who's going to be higher 564 00:23:26,148 --> 00:23:28,428 Speaker 2: on the list. After having a great season this year, 565 00:23:28,588 --> 00:23:31,268 Speaker 2: to have a quarterback at ninety one and just like 566 00:23:31,548 --> 00:23:33,308 Speaker 2: just move to ninety or eighty nine, I think to 567 00:23:33,428 --> 00:23:35,228 Speaker 2: a tongue of Ioloa can do that and then some 568 00:23:35,348 --> 00:23:37,588 Speaker 2: With the Miami Dolphins, the issue with just sitting at 569 00:23:37,668 --> 00:23:40,588 Speaker 2: ninety one is that he was hurt, He has injury history. 570 00:23:40,828 --> 00:23:44,028 Speaker 2: If this man can stay healthy at quarterback, Mike McDaniel 571 00:23:44,068 --> 00:23:46,508 Speaker 2: knows what he's doing with this offense. Deavan a Chan 572 00:23:46,868 --> 00:23:49,908 Speaker 2: is great, Tyreek Hill is there. You've got a Jalen 573 00:23:49,948 --> 00:23:53,228 Speaker 2: Wattle at wide receiver. This is a good offense that 574 00:23:53,268 --> 00:23:55,628 Speaker 2: they can operate as long as this quarterback stays upright. 575 00:23:55,668 --> 00:23:57,468 Speaker 2: And I know that's a huge if, but that's not 576 00:23:57,508 --> 00:23:59,028 Speaker 2: something that means that I have to knock him down 577 00:23:59,028 --> 00:24:00,708 Speaker 2: a few points for being in a top one hundred. 578 00:24:00,948 --> 00:24:02,948 Speaker 2: If he's at ninety one, I think he can be 579 00:24:03,028 --> 00:24:05,508 Speaker 2: great this season. I am to a tongue of Iloa fan. 580 00:24:06,108 --> 00:24:08,788 Speaker 2: We are not a show on record that denigrates him. 581 00:24:08,908 --> 00:24:12,748 Speaker 2: We are thinking he is talented. Manti knows him very well. 582 00:24:12,788 --> 00:24:15,708 Speaker 2: He's in his family. But like I'm from watching him 583 00:24:15,748 --> 00:24:17,508 Speaker 2: and covering him in college, Like I'm a too a person, 584 00:24:17,588 --> 00:24:19,508 Speaker 2: So I think ninety one and above him. 585 00:24:19,548 --> 00:24:21,388 Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't think. I don't know why anybody thinks 586 00:24:21,388 --> 00:24:23,508 Speaker 10: that Tool Tungo boyloa. Obviously, I'm not trying to be 587 00:24:23,548 --> 00:24:25,628 Speaker 10: biased here. I don't know why there's a narrative that 588 00:24:25,668 --> 00:24:28,708 Speaker 10: Tool is not talented. If you think about and watch 589 00:24:28,788 --> 00:24:30,948 Speaker 10: football and you watch how this man throws the ball, 590 00:24:31,028 --> 00:24:33,988 Speaker 10: you watch his accuracy, how he anticipates stuff. Those are 591 00:24:34,108 --> 00:24:37,388 Speaker 10: qualities of the great quarterbacks. The only question mark on 592 00:24:37,508 --> 00:24:39,988 Speaker 10: Tool has been his health. Yeah, but every time Tool 593 00:24:40,028 --> 00:24:42,708 Speaker 10: Tongo Boi La has been on the field, the Miami 594 00:24:42,748 --> 00:24:47,028 Speaker 10: Dolphins look different, they play different. Dvon A Chan is 595 00:24:47,228 --> 00:24:49,628 Speaker 10: one of the best running backs in football. 596 00:24:50,228 --> 00:24:51,788 Speaker 4: When Tool was in the game, when Too. 597 00:24:51,748 --> 00:24:53,828 Speaker 10: Was not in the game, that whole Yeah, I mean, 598 00:24:53,868 --> 00:24:56,468 Speaker 10: Tyreek Hill had a not a horrible year, but not 599 00:24:56,548 --> 00:25:00,388 Speaker 10: one of his best years all because well because Tool 600 00:25:00,508 --> 00:25:03,668 Speaker 10: wasn't in the game. So that's just somebody who just 601 00:25:03,908 --> 00:25:06,828 Speaker 10: dictates how well you go. And so it just always 602 00:25:06,828 --> 00:25:09,508 Speaker 10: baffles me when I hear people say not like. 603 00:25:09,468 --> 00:25:10,988 Speaker 7: Do you know what you're talking about? 604 00:25:11,108 --> 00:25:13,628 Speaker 6: I think you want The only thing that is hard 605 00:25:13,668 --> 00:25:16,468 Speaker 6: for me on anything to get to is adjusting to 606 00:25:16,468 --> 00:25:18,188 Speaker 6: a new left tackle when you have when you have 607 00:25:18,228 --> 00:25:20,508 Speaker 6: Toront Armstead now gone, like that has nothing to do 608 00:25:20,588 --> 00:25:22,668 Speaker 6: with Tua. It's just an adjustment of timing because there 609 00:25:22,668 --> 00:25:23,508 Speaker 6: are a rhythm offense. 610 00:25:23,708 --> 00:25:24,508 Speaker 4: They're really fast. 611 00:25:24,588 --> 00:25:27,068 Speaker 6: It's all about that quick pace pace paste paste paste pace. 612 00:25:27,308 --> 00:25:29,348 Speaker 6: So it's just going to be the adjustment period. Can 613 00:25:29,388 --> 00:25:32,748 Speaker 6: they figure out that kind of And again that's why 614 00:25:32,828 --> 00:25:34,828 Speaker 6: left tackle is one of the top five most important 615 00:25:34,828 --> 00:25:37,828 Speaker 6: places because it really does dictate how the. 616 00:25:37,628 --> 00:25:39,868 Speaker 4: Pressure goes and tools, in Tua's case. 617 00:25:39,788 --> 00:25:43,548 Speaker 10: The left tackle because he's left handed, he can see 618 00:25:44,068 --> 00:25:46,108 Speaker 10: the left side, so his blind spot is actually the 619 00:25:46,188 --> 00:25:50,268 Speaker 10: right tackle. You are missing a huge piece in Toronto. 620 00:25:50,268 --> 00:25:51,668 Speaker 10: A shout out to Toront. He was on a show 621 00:25:51,908 --> 00:25:54,268 Speaker 10: two weeks ago, but shout out to Toront because he's 622 00:25:54,268 --> 00:25:55,468 Speaker 10: one of the best. He I was with him in 623 00:25:55,508 --> 00:25:59,228 Speaker 10: New Orleans. However, again, Tool is a left handed quarterback, 624 00:25:59,428 --> 00:26:01,788 Speaker 10: so he can see the left side of line. For him, 625 00:26:01,828 --> 00:26:04,308 Speaker 10: it's the right side. But to your point, Cynthia is 626 00:26:04,748 --> 00:26:07,708 Speaker 10: a timing offense the way that McDaniel. You watch Tool, 627 00:26:07,788 --> 00:26:10,468 Speaker 10: he takes three steps the boss coming out. It is short, 628 00:26:10,548 --> 00:26:12,708 Speaker 10: it is sweet, and it's straight to the point, and 629 00:26:12,748 --> 00:26:13,508 Speaker 10: it's straight to the end. 630 00:26:13,468 --> 00:26:15,068 Speaker 4: Zone a lot of times when number one is in 631 00:26:15,108 --> 00:26:15,348 Speaker 4: the game. 632 00:26:16,428 --> 00:26:18,708 Speaker 7: I think it's also worth to mention. I mean, TYRK. 633 00:26:18,788 --> 00:26:20,988 Speaker 1: Hill went out on social media on Instagram right after 634 00:26:21,028 --> 00:26:23,188 Speaker 1: the season. He said, Hey, I ain't gonna lie guys. 635 00:26:23,348 --> 00:26:25,748 Speaker 1: We wasn't really in the gym last all season. We 636 00:26:25,748 --> 00:26:27,908 Speaker 1: wasn't in the gym like that. And when a player 637 00:26:27,948 --> 00:26:29,868 Speaker 1: comes out, it has that type of accountability. 638 00:26:30,028 --> 00:26:31,748 Speaker 7: It's clear that those guys are. 639 00:26:31,628 --> 00:26:33,588 Speaker 1: Really getting after this off seat and they're trying to 640 00:26:33,628 --> 00:26:35,628 Speaker 1: correct what they felt like went wrong. 641 00:26:35,428 --> 00:26:36,468 Speaker 7: In the season last year. 642 00:26:36,708 --> 00:26:39,308 Speaker 1: Now, I haven't always been high on Mike McDaniels from 643 00:26:39,348 --> 00:26:43,028 Speaker 1: a head coach and disciplinary standpoint, because I think he's 644 00:26:43,068 --> 00:26:45,228 Speaker 1: a hard guy to take, very serious for guys in 645 00:26:45,228 --> 00:26:48,068 Speaker 1: the NFL to take series from that discipline standpoint, but 646 00:26:48,108 --> 00:26:50,388 Speaker 1: if it's coming from the players first, to say like, hey, 647 00:26:50,628 --> 00:26:52,948 Speaker 1: we're not being who we say we are, being the 648 00:26:52,988 --> 00:26:55,068 Speaker 1: philosophy we're saying we want to be as a team. 649 00:26:55,268 --> 00:26:57,068 Speaker 1: That's not how we're coming out and acting. We're not 650 00:26:57,108 --> 00:26:59,468 Speaker 1: being on time the meetings, We're not making sure we're 651 00:26:59,508 --> 00:27:01,988 Speaker 1: at all of our workouts. If that type of rhetoric 652 00:27:02,108 --> 00:27:04,348 Speaker 1: is coming from the players with that accountability, seems like 653 00:27:04,428 --> 00:27:07,468 Speaker 1: it's going to be there, especially from guys like Tyreek Hill, 654 00:27:07,668 --> 00:27:10,028 Speaker 1: who we're supposed to be leaders of the team. That's 655 00:27:10,068 --> 00:27:12,468 Speaker 1: what makes me feel like, Okay, this team has a 656 00:27:12,548 --> 00:27:14,268 Speaker 1: chance to kind of change the culture and it will 657 00:27:14,268 --> 00:27:16,708 Speaker 1: allow tu to have one of his best years in 658 00:27:16,748 --> 00:27:17,828 Speaker 1: a Miami Dolphins uniform. 659 00:27:17,988 --> 00:27:20,468 Speaker 2: We're going to address what Tyreek Hill puts on social media. 660 00:27:20,588 --> 00:27:22,228 Speaker 2: Can't we talk about the fact that in put his 661 00:27:22,268 --> 00:27:25,148 Speaker 2: own quarterback in his top five NFL quarterbacks right now? 662 00:27:25,268 --> 00:27:26,028 Speaker 3: That was awkward. 663 00:27:26,028 --> 00:27:27,308 Speaker 2: I feel like they got to get in the gym, 664 00:27:27,468 --> 00:27:29,028 Speaker 2: have a handshake, and go out and have a great 665 00:27:29,068 --> 00:27:30,828 Speaker 2: season in order to remedy that issue. 666 00:27:30,908 --> 00:27:32,148 Speaker 3: That was very strange. 667 00:27:32,548 --> 00:27:34,988 Speaker 2: Our next guest on GMFF has had one of the 668 00:27:35,028 --> 00:27:37,508 Speaker 2: best seats in the house for some of the greatest 669 00:27:37,548 --> 00:27:39,708 Speaker 2: moments that the Kansas City Chiefs have had at their 670 00:27:39,748 --> 00:27:42,428 Speaker 2: games over the last thirty five years. His name is 671 00:27:42,508 --> 00:27:45,708 Speaker 2: Dan Nears aka case Wolf. 672 00:27:45,788 --> 00:27:46,028 Speaker 5: Dan. 673 00:27:46,188 --> 00:27:52,508 Speaker 2: Welcome to GMFB. Yeah, we are so happy and proud 674 00:27:52,588 --> 00:27:55,068 Speaker 2: to have you on. Not a lot of mascots, not 675 00:27:55,148 --> 00:27:57,388 Speaker 2: a lot of man behind the mask come on the show. 676 00:27:57,468 --> 00:27:59,108 Speaker 3: So thrilled that you are a part of this. 677 00:27:59,228 --> 00:28:02,228 Speaker 2: But also it has a sentimental point to it because 678 00:28:02,268 --> 00:28:04,668 Speaker 2: you have decided to call it a career. When it 679 00:28:04,708 --> 00:28:07,588 Speaker 2: comes to Casey Woolf, what's going on with this decision? 680 00:28:07,668 --> 00:28:07,868 Speaker 5: Dan? 681 00:28:08,228 --> 00:28:10,628 Speaker 9: You know what, I have done this now for thirty 682 00:28:10,668 --> 00:28:13,668 Speaker 9: five years. You know, they say time flies when you're 683 00:28:13,668 --> 00:28:16,108 Speaker 9: having fun. I've had a whole lot of fun for 684 00:28:16,148 --> 00:28:20,388 Speaker 9: the past three and a half decades. But this past season, 685 00:28:20,548 --> 00:28:23,868 Speaker 9: you know, the best thing that happened was I became 686 00:28:23,908 --> 00:28:28,828 Speaker 9: a grandpa, not once, twice and so I've been a 687 00:28:28,828 --> 00:28:32,148 Speaker 9: full time mascot, part time grandpa. And I told the Chiefs, 688 00:28:32,148 --> 00:28:34,188 Speaker 9: you know, I've had a good run, but I'm ready 689 00:28:34,228 --> 00:28:37,228 Speaker 9: to be a part time mascot, full time grandpa. 690 00:28:37,788 --> 00:28:38,948 Speaker 3: Oh that's so great. 691 00:28:38,988 --> 00:28:41,028 Speaker 6: Can you take us back to the beginning. How did 692 00:28:41,068 --> 00:28:42,308 Speaker 6: you even get into this? 693 00:28:42,868 --> 00:28:45,388 Speaker 9: You know, I started back in college. When I was 694 00:28:45,388 --> 00:28:48,028 Speaker 9: in high school, I played sports, but I went to 695 00:28:48,068 --> 00:28:51,428 Speaker 9: college at the University of Missouri. I was not good 696 00:28:51,508 --> 00:28:55,108 Speaker 9: enough to play college sports, and so when I was 697 00:28:55,148 --> 00:28:57,908 Speaker 9: reading the school newspaper, they said they were going to 698 00:28:57,988 --> 00:29:00,428 Speaker 9: have tryouts to be Truman the Tiger, and I thought, well, 699 00:29:00,428 --> 00:29:02,788 Speaker 9: that sounds kind of interesting, So I went to this 700 00:29:03,708 --> 00:29:07,148 Speaker 9: interview try out. Sure enough, I got the job. For 701 00:29:07,268 --> 00:29:10,988 Speaker 9: four years, I ran around in a Tigers who graduated 702 00:29:11,068 --> 00:29:14,188 Speaker 9: from college when out got my first job working in 703 00:29:14,308 --> 00:29:18,268 Speaker 9: professional baseball for the Saint Louis Cardinals. Baseball team is 704 00:29:18,428 --> 00:29:22,708 Speaker 9: character called fred Bird, And while I was in Saint Louis, 705 00:29:22,708 --> 00:29:24,868 Speaker 9: I got a call from the Chiefs to see if 706 00:29:24,908 --> 00:29:28,188 Speaker 9: i'd be interested in the Casey Wolf position. If you know, 707 00:29:28,228 --> 00:29:31,228 Speaker 9: in baseball, they played eighty one home games in the summer. 708 00:29:31,668 --> 00:29:34,268 Speaker 9: Professional football we played ten in the fall in the winter. 709 00:29:35,108 --> 00:29:37,148 Speaker 9: I'm not the brightest guy around, but I knew that 710 00:29:37,188 --> 00:29:39,108 Speaker 9: was a good switch to make to the NFL. So 711 00:29:39,628 --> 00:29:41,668 Speaker 9: came to Kansas City and I've been there for thirty 712 00:29:41,708 --> 00:29:42,828 Speaker 9: five years. 713 00:29:43,468 --> 00:29:44,308 Speaker 4: That's so cool, man. 714 00:29:44,348 --> 00:29:46,268 Speaker 10: And I was reading your story and was really struck 715 00:29:46,268 --> 00:29:49,068 Speaker 10: by your philosophy on being a distraction from real life 716 00:29:49,148 --> 00:29:50,868 Speaker 10: and also trying to make a lot of people smile. 717 00:29:50,908 --> 00:29:52,788 Speaker 4: And we did a lot as Casey Wolf. 718 00:29:53,068 --> 00:29:55,108 Speaker 10: But you reference a quote about a baby's diaper. 719 00:29:55,148 --> 00:29:56,708 Speaker 4: I'm a dad, so I'm interested here. 720 00:29:56,708 --> 00:29:59,148 Speaker 10: Would you please share with us why is that so 721 00:29:59,228 --> 00:29:59,988 Speaker 10: important to you? 722 00:30:00,228 --> 00:30:02,428 Speaker 9: Well, I've got a quote on my desk that says 723 00:30:04,468 --> 00:30:08,588 Speaker 9: that laughter is like changing a baby's diaper. It doesn't 724 00:30:08,668 --> 00:30:12,068 Speaker 9: change anything permanently, but it sure makes things more bearable 725 00:30:12,108 --> 00:30:16,788 Speaker 9: for a while. I love that quote because it reminds 726 00:30:16,828 --> 00:30:19,708 Speaker 9: me what I do. It's not going to change anything 727 00:30:19,908 --> 00:30:23,308 Speaker 9: permanently for people, but it won't make their lives just 728 00:30:23,348 --> 00:30:26,828 Speaker 9: a little more bearable for a while. Hopefully put a 729 00:30:26,868 --> 00:30:30,508 Speaker 9: smile on people's faces. And you know, another quote that's 730 00:30:30,548 --> 00:30:34,428 Speaker 9: on my desk at Arrolhead says that your life is 731 00:30:34,548 --> 00:30:37,228 Speaker 9: like a coin. You can spend it anyway you wish, 732 00:30:37,228 --> 00:30:39,588 Speaker 9: but you're only going to spend it one time, so 733 00:30:39,668 --> 00:30:43,148 Speaker 9: spend it wisely. And I've always loved that quote because 734 00:30:43,268 --> 00:30:46,148 Speaker 9: it reminds me every day I get the opportunity to 735 00:30:46,188 --> 00:30:50,988 Speaker 9: make choices. And I've always wanted to use this platform, 736 00:30:51,068 --> 00:30:54,708 Speaker 9: my pad as this crazy character Casey Wolf, to go 737 00:30:54,748 --> 00:30:57,388 Speaker 9: out and make a positive impact in the lives of others, 738 00:30:57,428 --> 00:31:00,228 Speaker 9: and hopefully we've done that here in Kansas City. Over 739 00:31:00,268 --> 00:31:03,508 Speaker 9: the past thirty five years, I've been blessed to work 740 00:31:03,548 --> 00:31:07,868 Speaker 9: for a great organization, the Hunt Family, the Kansas City Chiefs. 741 00:31:07,908 --> 00:31:11,028 Speaker 9: I just love the organization and I've had the job. 742 00:31:11,108 --> 00:31:13,748 Speaker 9: I love working for the team I love in the 743 00:31:13,748 --> 00:31:17,068 Speaker 9: city that I love, and it's just been a great career. 744 00:31:17,508 --> 00:31:19,468 Speaker 1: Dan, just from being around you a couple of minutes, 745 00:31:19,468 --> 00:31:22,908 Speaker 1: I'm very sure that you positively impacted a ton of 746 00:31:22,948 --> 00:31:25,068 Speaker 1: fans in the entire Kansas City organization. 747 00:31:25,428 --> 00:31:27,908 Speaker 7: I'm sure you've been assids one hundred times. But here 748 00:31:27,908 --> 00:31:28,268 Speaker 7: I go. 749 00:31:28,868 --> 00:31:32,148 Speaker 1: Your favorite moment on the sidelines as Casey wolf over 750 00:31:32,188 --> 00:31:33,228 Speaker 1: in Arrowhead Stadium. 751 00:31:33,388 --> 00:31:35,348 Speaker 9: You know what one of my favorite moments. I've got 752 00:31:35,388 --> 00:31:39,228 Speaker 9: three kids. They are now twenty nine, twenty seven, and 753 00:31:39,308 --> 00:31:42,708 Speaker 9: twenty three.
