You ever wiped with a piece 68 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 5: of dry toilet paper and wondered, is this as good 69 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 5: as it gets? It's not switched to life changing wet 70 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 5: extra large fleshable dude wipes because wetter just cleans better. 71 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 5: Available at Amazon and at major retailer's nationwide, Dude wipes 72 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 5: best clean pants down. 73 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 4: That's why hell of. 74 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 3: A dry piece of toilet tissue, by the way, if 75 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 3: it makes it, and it's usually in public restrooms, like 76 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 3: that public restroom roll of toilet paper. Oh yeah, not 77 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: only dry, but it's almost like they on purpose make 78 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 3: it seem like it's like sand paper. 79 00:03:58,240 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 4: Might as well be foil. 80 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: Oh dang. 81 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 5: Oh okay, I've had a different experience than that, But 82 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 5: we'll talk about that off air. By the way, we 83 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 5: are we are waiting to see whether or not that weirdo, 84 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 5: that rat punk Satani Phil is going to uh tell 85 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 5: us you got. 86 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 2: To be a rat manybe? What a great movie? 87 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,559 Speaker 5: Oh, one of my favorite comedies. It is a really 88 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 5: good movie. Yeah, that's the one with Bill Murray. 89 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 90 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, because every day you'd like the same thing repeat 91 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 3: every day. Huh yeh, dang, it's really good. I would 92 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 3: love for my storyline to be a really good storyline. 93 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,239 Speaker 3: If it's going to I'm going to go to sleep 94 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 3: and it's going to play out all over again the 95 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 3: next day. 96 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: By the way, why can't movies, why can they be 97 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: more creative where you have something like that. Again, I'm 98 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: not saying make a you know, sequel or recreate it. 99 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: I hate when they do that, But why is it 100 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: we can't get fun movies like that where someone comes 101 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: up with a good idea to play out a scenario 102 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: like Groundhog Dad because people are too sensitive. 103 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 5: These days and celebrities are too busy taking a stand, 104 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 5: you know, so that kind of takes away from the creativity. 105 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 4: There was a whole lot of that in the Grammys. Huh, well, 106 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 4: Grammys offsite. I couldn't about making sure you're walking. 107 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 2: Grammys. 108 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: Uh to me are like tennis to Levary, I'll be 109 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: off this. 110 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 4: Well, what's funny? What's funny? I'm like tennis. Then this 111 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 4: is worse than tennis. Yeah, I'm turning the TV off. 112 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: Well, here's. 113 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 5: Here's something that was probably worse than uh than both 114 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 5: those things. Apparently the uh the run for Questia Dolpha 115 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 5: Mensa as GM of the Minnesota Vikings. 116 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 4: Because that'll do it. He's gone. 117 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 5: He is no longer employed by the team, a move 118 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 5: that was made on Friday. I don't know if there's 119 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,039 Speaker 5: some sort of a Friday news dump or whatnot, but 120 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 5: that kind of surprising considering the timing, and he is 121 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 5: he has done. 122 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 4: That's a wrap, And. 123 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 5: Of course the conversation becomes how much of the Sam 124 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 5: Donald run to the Super Bowl and their decision to 125 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 5: want to stick with JJ McCarthy as opposed to bringing 126 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 5: back Sam Donald had to do with this. And then 127 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 5: you look more into it and you see, you know, 128 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 5: he missed on some draft picks. They went big on 129 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 5: some veteran free agents, some of them didn't pan out. 130 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 5: And I'm looking at the whole thing going. It's not 131 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 5: like they were awful last year. They were nine to eight, 132 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 5: but the expectations were such and Diana Rossini had an 133 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 5: article in the off season in which she talked about, 134 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 5: you know, they viewed this as a three year window, 135 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 5: and it's like, all right, well, if it's a three 136 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 5: year window, you know, one of those years is done, 137 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 5: and based on what we saw, who knows if the 138 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 5: other to even exist at this point. And so the 139 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 5: Vikings make the move and now they're in the in 140 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 5: the market for a new GM after the firing of 141 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 5: Questia Dopa Menza on Friday. 142 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: By the way, super nice guy, like anyone who's met 143 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: qwac knows he's a super nice guy, very easy to 144 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: talk to, and it just didn't work out. 145 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 2: Like that's the that's the best way of putting it. 146 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,119 Speaker 1: You know, I think they hired him in a spot 147 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: where they felt like they wanted to be very datalytics driven. 148 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: That's his background and it, you know, for whatever reason, 149 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: whatever you want to points to you. There's obviously a 150 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: number of things out there. The Sam Donald and really 151 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback situation in general is one in which the 152 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: more that I've talked to some folks and they've kind 153 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: of dived in, you know, they really wanted to get 154 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: Drake May. You know, they wanted to move heaven and 155 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: earth to get Drake May and didn't work out, and 156 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: so they ended up with JJ McCarthy, who's a good 157 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: player Eric can be, but I think they knew he 158 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: was going to need some time to development and that 159 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: hasn't gone exactly the way they had hoped. And obviously 160 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: injuries have played a bit of a role or portion 161 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: of that. And then you're talking about some of the 162 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: other decisions too. There seemed to be a disconnect between 163 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: the data driven that perspective and what the coaches are 164 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: looking for and what they're watching on film what they need. 165 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: And I gotta be honest, this is not that uncommon 166 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: where you get a disconnect between the front office and 167 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: what's happened on the ross with the coaches, you know, 168 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: the scouts, and everyone says, hey, we like this guy, 169 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: but this guy, you know, performs well at the combine. 170 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: He's got this, this and this. It's like, okay, well 171 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: we turn on the tape. He doesn't fit in our system. 172 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: So there's always that disconnect, especially this year. But it 173 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: seemed like the quarterback situation really came to a head. 174 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: All I'll say here is it was definitely Sam Darnold 175 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 3: driven that that Minsu lost his job. He has some 176 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 3: very you know, good introspective feedback on how he felt 177 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 3: about it. 178 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 4: You know, the whole wake up look looking at the ceiling. 179 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 3: Could have done something differently, do die process driven like 180 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 3: I thought he was. He handled his response to the 181 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 3: firing very very responsible, responsibly, very. 182 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 4: Very classy way. 183 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 3: But I mean, make no mistake about it generally speaking. 184 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 3: You know, whether it was just him acting alone or 185 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 3: it was a team effort. Again, you got to have 186 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: a fall guy, and Minnesota had to have a fall guy. 187 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 4: If if Seattle doesn't have the. 188 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 3: Season they have, I would be willing to bet that 189 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 3: Minsu still has a job. Mensa still has a job 190 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 3: would I would be willing to bet that confidently. But 191 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 3: the fact that you go from and for what it's worth, 192 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 3: the Seahawks offense has been effective. It's one of the 193 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 3: top offenses if you look it up, it's one of 194 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 3: the top offenses in the league in some categories. And 195 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 3: you look at how far better the Vikings went this year, 196 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 3: and okay, JJ McCarthy goes out with an injury, but 197 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 3: he wasn't really like setting the world on fire. This 198 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 3: is one I think it was Jefferson's worst year as 199 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 3: a pro thus far. They just you can't if you 200 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 3: take the correlation of why did Minnesota go backwards even 201 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 3: though they fizzled out last year with Sam Donald at 202 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 3: the helm. 203 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,079 Speaker 4: Why did they go so far backwards. 204 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 3: From last year to this year, and the one common 205 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 3: denominator in both of them, because Seattle did improve to 206 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 3: the point of where they're at the Super Bowl. I 207 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 3: think that you're going to connect that to Sam Donald. 208 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 3: They undervalued Sam Donald in Minnesota and it costed them 209 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 3: a season, which in return, you got to have a 210 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 3: fall guy to offer up to your. 211 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 4: Fan base, and it was their GM. 212 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 5: So you mentioned justin Jefferson, he was talking with USA 213 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 5: today about the quarterbacks situation and what could have been, 214 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 5: and it sounded like. 215 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 6: This does a part of you feel like, hey, if 216 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 6: you ran it back one more year, maybe that could. 217 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: Have been you. 218 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean for sure, I mean definitely, I mean especially, 219 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 6: I mean everyone knows the difficulty of the quarterback position. 220 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 4: This year, we was dealt it. 221 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 6: But of course, you know, having a quarterback that's already 222 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 6: had the season under his belt with us, knew the plays, 223 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 6: knew the playbook, knew the players, you know, of course 224 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 6: throwing to me, Jordan Addison, t J Hockinson, all of 225 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 6: these guys. I definitely felt like we would have done better, 226 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 6: but you know, it is what it is. 227 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 2: You know, it's on to new and better things. 228 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 6: But I'm definitely happy and prow firm that he was 229 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 6: able to reach it this year. 230 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 4: It's probably a awkward clip to hear if you're. 231 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: Nine, translation is, JJ, you ain't Sam Darnold. And we 232 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 3: were trash this year, and a lot of it is 233 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 3: probably because of the way you played. 234 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: That's the translators and I mean nice. 235 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: Sides when it becomes number nine. 236 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: Yeah right, yeah, yeah, he said it though, at least 237 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 3: justin Jefferson has a very nice way about him. I 238 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: like his way, but I mean, if you're translating it 239 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 3: and putting it in real terms, like our QB was 240 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 3: some s this year, and that's what we had to 241 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 3: contend with. And now our QB that knew the system 242 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: that could throw to me and Jordan and get things done. 243 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 4: You know, maybe that's why Jordan got in trouble. 244 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 3: So you remember, no, maybe he got maybe he passed 245 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 3: out or didn't want to, you know, because he you know, 246 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 3: he was going to have to deal. 247 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 4: With what was taking place this year. 248 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 5: Because it's also it's not even just JJ McCarthy, Daniel 249 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 5: Jones is on the roster too. 250 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers reportedly that was real close to happening. 251 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 5: So if you're just looking at the quarterbacks, they are 252 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 5: the quarterback they chose over the ones that went elsewhere. 253 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 5: It was a miss, Yeah, like you missed multiple times 254 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 5: over And then you know you've got the discussion that 255 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 5: was out there that apparently there was a trade that 256 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 5: nearly happened where they almost were trying to trade JJ 257 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 5: McCarthy to the Raiders and that they were just going 258 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 5: to go with Sam Darnold. But ultimately they decided against that. 259 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 3: It just there's and not to mention that it started 260 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 3: with Kirk Cousins too, by the way, like even if 261 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 3: you go back prior to them, did you really need. 262 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 5: To draft JJ McCarthy come again with O'Connell wanted Kirk 263 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 5: Cousins still right, you know what I mean? 264 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 3: They were going in. They were trending in the right 265 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 3: direction with Kirk Cousin. God they take him out a threshold, 266 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 3: I don't know, but you were trending in the right 267 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 3: direction with Kirk Cousins. Just so, so it goes a 268 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 3: little bit further back o'conna one of them. 269 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: I think there was also an element though with ownership 270 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: where they didn't want to because remember he got the 271 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: three year fully guaranteed deal, and there was a thought 272 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: of like, what's Kirk looking for? 273 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 2: We don't want to go do that again, and he didn't. 274 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: He didn't get that from the Falcons, but he didn't 275 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: get the first two years fully guaranteed. And it's one 276 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 2: of the reasons why you know that the Falcons are 277 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: in the position they were this offseason. 278 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: But to your point, I know there was a desire 279 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: to keep Kirk and not you know, and stay in 280 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: this window and not. 281 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 2: Do what they did. 282 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: I think there also was a thought, you know, JJ 283 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: needed some development and they didn't want to play them 284 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: and start them right away, and they knew that. And 285 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that quac Adopa mensa had provided them 286 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: this to build in the roster around. 287 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 2: Him necessarily to do that. 288 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: So I think the other thing is when you look 289 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: at this time of year with general managers and really 290 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: teams with roster construction, sometimes people don't understand why certain 291 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: positions get drafted in the first round and why others don't. So, 292 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, typically you don't see running backs, linebackers, and 293 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: safeties drafted in the first round unless they're extraordinary talents 294 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: or the team just feels like they're the best overall 295 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: prospect and. 296 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 2: Want to go that direction. 297 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: And the reason being is this, the positions that cost 298 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: the most on your salary cap are traditionally quarterbacks, tackles, 299 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: edge rushers, cornerbacks. 300 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: Wide receivers. So what you're trying to do. 301 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: Is you're trying to load up on guys that you 302 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: feel like can be stars in those spots, and then 303 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: you have as a first round draft pick, you know, 304 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: a window of at least three years, you could say 305 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: where you can, you're not spending money on them, right, 306 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: they're coming in on a rookie deal, and as they're 307 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: getting up to speed to becoming the player you hope 308 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: they'll be, you're using the rest of money to you 309 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: go pay a veteran linebacker, to go pay a vetter 310 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: like guys who are proven in those spots, and it 311 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: helps kind of save in some of those others before 312 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: you have to eventually pay for one of those top 313 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: stars at those positions. So that's kind of a philosophy 314 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: that like a lot of you know, you'll see when 315 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: it comes to the first round of this year's draft, 316 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: how a lot of teams go about picking players and 317 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: why they pick them out those positions. You know, instead 318 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: of maybe a guy's a great players of safety or 319 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: great player as a linebacker, there's a thought there's something 320 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: to that. So, you know, you look at what Quisa 321 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: dol Fomensa did now that they've had JJ McCarthy on 322 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: his rookie deal. To Jonas's point, I don't know that 323 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: they've spent the money they thought they were going to 324 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: be able to spend in the right positions too that 325 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: have been able to capitalize on some of that. 326 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 5: It does feel like there's a bit of a smear 327 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 5: campaign that went on. The Athletic reported that, you know, 328 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 5: he apparently he took a paternity leave for two weeks 329 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 5: and that reportedly it left you know, people around the 330 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 5: league and disbelief. 331 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 4: That he would dare do that, that he would take 332 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 4: off for two weeks following the birth of his child, and. 333 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 5: Like it just like, why does any of that, why 334 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 5: is any of that even a part of the conversation. 335 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 2: Well was during training camp. 336 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, I just like, the guy's gone. Okay, 337 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 4: he's gone. 338 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 5: He missed on some picks, he missed on the quarterback position. 339 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 5: He missed multiple times over him taking a paternity leave 340 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 5: has nothing to do with the fact that JJ McCarthy 341 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 5: can't stay healthy. 342 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 4: It's got nothing to. 343 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 3: Listen, man, when when it goes back, somebody's got to 344 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 3: take the fall for it and listen, He's. 345 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 4: Made some good moves. 346 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 3: I mean, even when he brought in like Zadarius and 347 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 3: guys like that Zadaris Smith, he put together like some 348 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 3: really really nice combinations on both sides of the ball. 349 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 3: Defense was clicking was going in the right direction. You 350 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 3: had multiple weapons on the offensive side of the ball, 351 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 3: you got a nice little offensive line thing going, you 352 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 3: got a running game. 353 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 4: It looked like it was. 354 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 3: Coming together for Minnesota to be a team that contended 355 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 3: for the North. And who knows what it looked like 356 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 3: going into the playoffs, Like that's what it looked like. 357 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: So when you have that type of a fall off, 358 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 3: the bottom line is they missed on the quarterback's position. 359 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 4: However, whatever should. 360 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 3: They have paid a friend because, like you guys said, 361 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 3: with Kirk Cousins wanting the fully guaranteed I don't know 362 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 3: what Sam Darnold was looking for from Minnesota, but they 363 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 3: clearly did not see it being a that you for 364 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 3: them to award him what it was he was seeking 365 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 3: for compass. 366 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 4: Say, tagged him, give him the franchise tag. 367 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 3: But but again, do you do you? I just feel 368 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 3: like when you don't do that, it's like we're not 369 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 3: looking at you as a long term option. And in 370 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 3: today's NFL we talked about this not too many shows 371 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 3: ago as well, and this in today's NFL, you do 372 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 3: not get the same amount of time as a head 373 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 3: coach or even as a GM to mess up decisions. 374 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 3: So if I'm going to, like I would say, after 375 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 3: seeing how all of these one year, ten years and 376 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 3: short ten years as coaches or even gms, I'm taking 377 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 3: a shot. I'm taking my shot and I want it 378 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 3: documented like, Okay, we got very close to what we're 379 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 3: doing and accomplishing being a competitive team, making it to 380 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 3: the playoffs, making a deep run, making it to the 381 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 3: super Bowl, winning the Super Bowl. I'm going to really 382 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 3: really had my bets. If it's something that is going well, 383 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 3: we got to find a way to keep the guy. 384 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 3: Bottom line, I'm not like, oh, we need to take 385 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 3: a quarterback for the future. I'll cross that bridge when 386 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 3: I get there, because if I'm letting this guy go, 387 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 3: that's getting us to where we're trying to go to 388 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 3: to draft this guy over here. Based off of potential, 389 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: I could be gone in a year. I could be 390 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 3: as a head coach, as a GM, I could be 391 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 3: gone in the next instant. Why would I bet all 392 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 3: the way out. I'll cross that bridge when I get there, 393 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 3: because ownership is making those same decisions on how we 394 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 3: maintain our jobs. If we're winning, I'm keeping the people together. 395 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 3: That's getting us wins. 396 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 5: But then you go back to a team like Kansas 397 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 5: City who had Alex Smith. They were going to the 398 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 5: playoffs and they were decently successful, and they had Patrick 399 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 5: Mahomes who was a bit of an unknown. They took 400 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 5: the approach of we're going to trade Alex Smith and 401 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 5: we're gonna go with this young guy, and it paid 402 00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,959 Speaker 5: off on the reverse. 403 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 4: Then you've got the Vikings who. 404 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: You can do the reverse, but they also knew They 405 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: also knew what they had and Patrick, remember he did 406 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: start a game. 407 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: They saw him in practice and. 408 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: It was one of those where you know, that was 409 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 1: not the reports we're hearing about. 410 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 2: J McCarthy. 411 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: Remember Diana ver Seeing coming out and saying like, hey, 412 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: things are looking inconsistent. 413 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 2: They're trying to make it look good on social media. 414 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: Like they've known for a while that he's kind of 415 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: struggled or been struggling, and that he needed some development, 416 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: he needed time, Like they've known that since they've drafted him, 417 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: and unfortunately they haven't really provided him that same you know, 418 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: runway if you will to be similar to what patri. 419 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 2: Ma Hohlmes experience with Alex Smith. 420 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,360 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that you're ever going to get 421 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: a perfect snaiy to come into as a quarterback. Obviously not, 422 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: but I think that was more of the thought and 423 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: clearly that hasn't been the. 424 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 2: Case in Minnesota. Yeah. 425 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,360 Speaker 5: Well, hopefully they'll get it done, man, because if not, 426 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 5: JJ McCarthy's gonna feel real bad about things. 427 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 3: He should have already feel bad just for the number 428 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 3: nine thing. Yeah, just for himself though, not. 429 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: That, But that's the problem far is is you know, JJ, 430 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: he's not getting it done. 431 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 2: Number nine does.

He was talking with al dot 543 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 5: com about his decision to end the draft and not 544 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 5: enter the portal, even though he was getting offers from 545 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 5: programs like Miami, Ole, Miss, and Tennessee. Reportedly and Tysimpson 546 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 5: said the following quote, There's no doubt in my mind 547 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 5: that the last jersey I wanted to wear in college 548 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 5: was the Alabama Crimson tie jersey. I came there, I 549 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 5: stayed there. The last thing I wanted to do was 550 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 5: tarnish my legacy and go somewhere else where. I didn't 551 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 5: go out of high school and I didn't want to play. 552 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 5: I love Coach Debor, I love the University of Alabama. 553 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 5: I love the fans, I love everything about it. Hopefully, 554 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 5: in the draft, whenever my name gets written on a 555 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 5: card they wre at the University of Alabama on there, 556 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 5: it's going to give me great pride. 557 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,479 Speaker 4: That's awesome, love that it is. 558 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, go far, Yeah, take this far. 559 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 4: No, I was just going to. 560 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 3: Say I really do love it, because that's not something 561 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 3: that you hear as of late. Right as to the 562 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: highest bidder goes the spoils and again I feel like 563 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 3: one of the biggest pieces of all of this NIL 564 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 3: era time and rev sharing and contracts and all that, 565 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 3: and Q you've said it. You've said it quite a 566 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,239 Speaker 3: bit at length. You're losing You're losing the essence of 567 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 3: what college athletics represents, which is you go there to 568 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 3: build your community, right and you go there to connect 569 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 3: with your community, to learn about yourself, and you're doing 570 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 3: it with other peoples and people in that same community. 571 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 3: So as you go through and as you grow, they're 572 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 3: doing the same exact thing. You leave school. They become, 573 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 3: you know, an exec somewhere. You have success doing what 574 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 3: you're doing. I'll tell you great example, because this is 575 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 3: what he's saying is is so much what I teach 576 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 3: my kids. Be loyal to the soil that you walked 577 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 3: on and that you started on. And I never I 578 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 3: didn't go to school. I went to school. I studied, 579 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 3: majored in sociology. I'm minored in psychology. I wanted to 580 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 3: be a counselor. I wanted to sit there, take notes, 581 00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 3: tell people you know, okay, like think about this some 582 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 3: perspective boom, but will help people that needed to talk to. 583 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 3: I end up in media, And the reason why I 584 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 3: ended up in media was because a program director in 585 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 3: the local market shots out to Sam Rogers was a 586 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 3: Penn Stater and he was an alumbed part of my community, 587 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 3: and he was like, bro, I'd love to have you 588 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 3: on radio. I think you have a good, good way 589 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 3: about you and I think that you would do great 590 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 3: in radio. Turns out it's something that I really enjoyed doing, 591 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 3: wanted to be a part of, wanted to learn it. 592 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 3: He taught me it, and boom, here I am. I 593 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 3: get to do a show with you guys every day. 594 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 3: Is so crazy, and it's all because I did not 595 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 3: leave my school. I just feel like nowadays, you're we 596 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 3: are creating a culture of no flags. 597 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 4: You have no flag to raise, you have no. 598 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 3: Flag to stick in the ground and say I am 599 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 3: a Golden domer, I'm a notre dang guy, I'm a 600 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 3: Penn State guy, I'm an Ohio State guy, whatever it 601 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 3: may be. Because you're going to three four different schools 602 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 3: during your time and you're a hand for hire, you're 603 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 3: a mercenary, and you're not building out community. So anyway, 604 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 3: I really enjoyed this quote. I enjoy this story. We 605 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 3: talk about all of the horror stories that have been 606 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 3: developing and taking place. I think this is one of 607 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 3: the more commendable ways of handled handling things, and very 608 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 3: very proud that we still have guys that think this 609 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 3: way going into the college rinks. 610 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 2: That's awesome. That's all we'll say. 611 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: Let me tell the real story why he's decided not 612 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: to go somewhere else. All Right, he's got a shot 613 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: of being a first round pick. Now that shot becomes 614 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: a lot more difficult and a lot more competitive if 615 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: he comes back for another year, whether that's at Alabama 616 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: or anywhere else for that matter. Okay, and reason being is, 617 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: this is the list of quarterbacks who are draft eligible 618 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: for the twenty twenty seven NFL Draft. And mind you, 619 00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: I might put I would say some of the tape 620 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: of these guys up there next to his this year, Okay, 621 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: Dante Moore, Arch Manning Joy and Sam sam Levitt, the 622 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: North Sellers, Josh Hoover, Jade Mayava, CJ Carr, Niko Iamaliava, 623 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 1: DJ Lagway, who at once was a high prospect, he 624 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: is old. 625 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 2: He'll be at Bailo. 626 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: Now we'll see if he can resurrect some of that 627 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: now not all of those guys will decide to leave 628 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: after this twenty twenty twenty sixth season. However, my point 629 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: is it's a much more competitive draft. Like this is 630 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: a draft where I think Mendoza will go number one. 631 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: At least I suspect he will. Ty Simpson, in my opinion, 632 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: based on all the tape I've watched these guys, he's 633 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: got the next best tape out there. And then I'd 634 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: put Trinidad Chambless like he to me, he's like the 635 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: next prospect you start talking about. But there's still, you know, 636 00:31:55,920 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: some development there hasn't started as much at the high 637 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: football college level, so there's that concern. But it's not 638 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: a deep class, you know, Carson Beck. I'm sure at 639 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: some point we'll get drafted, But I mean your talking 640 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: about Trinidad Chambliss, Carson Beck probably mid later rounds. 641 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 2: I mean, this might be a draft you have. 642 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 4: I don't know. 643 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: I bet if you were to look right now in DraftKings, 644 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: I haven't looked at this, I would bet the over 645 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: under of quarterbacks drafted is at like five and a half, 646 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: six and a half somewhere in that number. 647 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 5: I was trying to look for that last week I 648 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 5: don't know if it's posted yet, but yeah. 649 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 2: Okay, because that's about what it is. Man. 650 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: It's it's not a deep draft at all. Whereas next 651 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: year's draft, I think you could have upwards of twelve, 652 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: maybe more quarterbacks drafted. So it's it's to me an 653 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: opportunity for Ty Simpson to use the whole Bama legacy 654 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: all that stuff, which he was there, you know, one 655 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: season starting. But I think this has more to do 656 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: with him being able to cash in and be a 657 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: first round pick, and quite honestly probably up with in 658 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: a really good situation. You know, if you start looking 659 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: at some of the mock drafts and where some of 660 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: these teams have him potentially going. 661 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 2: You know, if he ends up being a mid late 662 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 2: first round pick, you're. 663 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: Talking about organization that's got a lot more built around 664 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: that position, you know. 665 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 2: So whoever that may be, I'm not I don't. 666 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: Know if that would be like the Steelers or you know, 667 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,959 Speaker 1: other organizations that you may say, like, hey, let's go 668 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: draft this guy. 669 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 2: Let him sit a year behind Rogers if Rogers came back. 670 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: If not, you're still in a much better situation, you know, 671 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: being there than being some of the other, you know, 672 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: teams that are maybe looking for quarterbacks. So it's I 673 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: think that is as much to do with as anything else. 674 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: He's getting great advice, he's saying the right things. But 675 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: to be honest, too, there's a much better chance that 676 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: he could could be a first round pick this year 677 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: as opposed. 678 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 2: To if he waits another year. 679 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 5: LaVar's trying to, you know, just trying to celebrate the kid, 680 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 5: and Brady's going to come rain on our parade. 681 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 2: I'm not saying he's not being celebrated. He is. 682 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: It's just let's let's be real about it too. Like 683 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: he's being that is the second best quarterback in this 684 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: draft class, he definitely won't be. 685 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 2: I mean, Dante Moore will come out after this next year. 686 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 2: You know. 687 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 1: Again, I'm obviously high on CJ. Carr, as you guys know, 688 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: but Jade Mayava has been putting up numbers in stats. 689 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: Josh Hoover could be that next quarterback for Indiana. He 690 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: played well at TCU this year. He could be great. 691 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: Lenora Sellers. To me, I always thought when people kept 692 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,479 Speaker 1: putting him in those mock drafts for this year's draft, 693 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,479 Speaker 1: I was like, did he He's still a bit raw. 694 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: But if he continues to develop that guy oozes ability 695 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 1: and Sam Levitz now down at LSU, and you know 696 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: he's got a lot of a talent ability. You know, 697 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 1: Nico's still going to impress a lot of people with 698 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,280 Speaker 1: his arm strength. Arch Manning played a lot better football 699 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: at the end of the season that I think people 700 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: realize because after the beginning they kind of they started 701 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,760 Speaker 1: to fade away from watching him. But he was playing 702 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: some good ball. So it's a loaded class in twenty 703 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven.

I remember last year Day one, we didn't 766 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 5: have chairs when we showed up to Radio Row, so 767 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 5: that was that was an issue. So we had to 768 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 5: sit at those small chairs behind the desk, which was 769 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:50,919 Speaker 5: a little bit of a problem and look kind of weird. 770 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 2: NA, we're workmen, like you know, we'll stand up, so 771 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 2: we do. 772 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, somebody who apparently is going to be partaking 773 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 5: in his final game as a coordinator for the Seattle 774 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 5: Seahawks is Clint Kubiak, because all reports indicate that Clint 775 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 5: Kubiak is going to be the next head coach of 776 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 5: the Las Vegas Raiders, so that's going to be his gig. 777 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 5: He interviewed with the Cardinals as well too, but his 778 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 5: preference was the Raiders. The Cardinals in turn, went with 779 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 5: Michael Laflour after interviewing. By the way, Ron Rivera also 780 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 5: was I guess deep into the into the interview process 781 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 5: with the Cardinals and I was getting a heavy consideration. 782 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 5: But ultimately it's going to be Mike Lafloor in Arizona 783 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 5: and it's going to be Clint Kubiak. Who's going to 784 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 5: be the head coach with the Raiders. I would assume 785 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,280 Speaker 5: this is just I'm just guessing here that Clint Kubiak 786 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 5: is going to be with the Raiders for a while, 787 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 5: just based on the fact that they cannot keep paying coaches, 788 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 5: like enough's enough. 789 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 4: At some point, you got to keep a guy there 790 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 4: for a while. 791 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,240 Speaker 1: I actually feel like, I mean, some of those coaches 792 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 1: they're paying are venture going to wind down, so they've 793 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: got that working for him. There's also did you see 794 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: how the salary CAP's going to go up by another 795 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: it was a twenty million. Yeah, this is always a 796 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,560 Speaker 1: signal to people like, oh man, this free agency is 797 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: gonna be wild. 798 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 2: Dudes are gonna be cashing in. Yeah, that's true. 799 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 1: But it's also a signal that if you look since 800 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: the lockout back in what twenty ten, twenty eleven, if 801 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: you go back and look at the salary cap since then, 802 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: and the way it's continuing to grow when no one 803 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: wants to talk about is how much money these owners 804 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 1: are making. Like that's why they're able to incrementally keep 805 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: bringing up the salary cap and people are watching it going, 806 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: oh man, that's awesome. Like these guys. They're making so 807 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: much money. No, the owners are making a ton of money. 808 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: That's what that signifies. When you're able to pay your 809 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: employees that much more every single year. They're they're kind 810 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: of putting a cap on it too. But with this 811 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: deal for the owners, it is as healthy as it gets. 812 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,760 Speaker 1: They're making it a ton of cap and I actually 813 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 1: think that that's why they've been so you know, bullish 814 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 1: on finding that next head coach. I being able to 815 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: say I can fire a guy after one year, I 816 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 1: can fire a. 817 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:11,240 Speaker 2: Guy after two years. 818 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: I don't care what I'm paying because I know if 819 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:15,919 Speaker 1: I find the right guy as much money as I'm making, 820 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 1: wait till we start winning games, Wait till that helps 821 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: us improve that much. 822 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 2: More of what we're making. 823 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 4: Well, I think it's an interesting conversation, But you know. 824 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 5: You don't think Clint Kubiak's a good hire for the Raiders. 825 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 5: It's done a pretty good job with Seattle. 826 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 3: I just I think that there's this saying that a 827 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 3: team that is dysfunctional talent cannot outperform the dysfunction, and I. 828 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,760 Speaker 4: Just it's a wait and see. 829 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,479 Speaker 3: For me. It's a wait and see because I don't 830 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 3: I'm not. I'm just not a believer. And where you know, 831 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 3: we're where the Raiders are, I'm not. I'm not a 832 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 3: big believer in it. So I don't know. 833 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 4: I don't. 834 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 3: I don't feel like it's a large conversation until we 835 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 3: get to a point of where it can become a 836 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,240 Speaker 3: conversation like what we saw take place in New England, 837 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 3: because I would have said that it was getting a 838 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 3: little bit dysfunctional and in New England, you know, and 839 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 3: and in some way somehow they found the way to 840 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 3: write the ship. So but I just don't. I don't 841 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 3: have a tremendously strong opinion on on the Raiders. 842 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 1: Let me give you as we're coming down to closing out, 843 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 1: even though it's not I guess official because Kubek's calling 844 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: place for the Seahawks and Super Bowl. There was this 845 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 1: report and we had discussed it last week like a 846 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: lot of defensive guys, like it's defensive coaches now that 847 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: you kind of closed out with a lot of offensive guys, right, 848 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 1: Like of the ten jobs that have become open, we've 849 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 1: finally been able to count, I think only had what 850 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:04,760 Speaker 1: three coaches who are defensive mind of nature mentor Halfley 851 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: and Salah. I mean take hard balls on the other side, 852 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: but you're still seeing offense just dominate right now the 853 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: league and what everyone's looking for. 854 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 4: How's that field bar? I mean, still gotta wait and see. Man, 855 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 4: you're gonna take that? Yeah, because. 856 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 3: The Raiders aren't very good though, I'm gonna take I'm 857 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 3: anna heir on the side of the Raiders aren't very 858 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 3: good and they don't show any signs of being any 859 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 3: better anytime soon. 860 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 5: I just want to know, did they at least, if 861 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 5: you know you're taking Fernando Mendoza. I just want to know, 862 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 5: did they at least inquire about Kurt Signetty, Like, I 863 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 5: just like, did that even get off the ground? 864 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:50,240 Speaker 4: Did they at least reach out. 865 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 5: You know, pick his brain, ask him, hey, any interest whatsoever? 866 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 5: You know, even if even if he says no, if 867 00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 5: they're going with Fernando Mendoza, was or any thought to hey, 868 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 5: let's let's at least have a conversation with the guy 869 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 5: to se if it makes some sense that that would 870 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 5: be what I'm more curious about. 871 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 4: I don't know, do you think? 872 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 3: And it would be interesting to think what Kirk Signetty 873 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 3: was able to accomplish at the college level, would. 874 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 4: He be able to do that at the pro level? 875 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 3: And I would say, just conventional wisdom says no, because 876 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 3: you're you're talking about he pulled together from me Seemingly 877 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 3: he identified talent, but he identified mature talent. He identified focused, 878 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,720 Speaker 3: kind of grounded guys that were able to come together, 879 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 3: work together and bring the best out of one another. 880 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 4: That's what it appeared to be. 881 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 3: At the pro level, there are I would say, there's 882 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 3: probably more moving parts that you have to try to 883 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 3: pull together as a coach. 884 00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 4: And I also would. 885 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:03,799 Speaker 3: Say that obviously there are a lot more adults. There 886 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,399 Speaker 3: are people just as old as Kirk Signetti in the league. 887 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 3: Not not that old, but but you have older guys, 888 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,919 Speaker 3: different different types of places where they. 889 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 4: Are in their lives. 890 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 3: So I think it would be a little bit more 891 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 3: difficult to implement what it is. 892 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:20,399 Speaker 4: But I mean, make no. 893 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 3: Mistake about a structure is structure, and Kirk Signetti showed 894 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 3: that wherever he's gone he can structure the program to 895 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 3: have success. I just think it's a little different animal 896 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 3: at the pro level. 897 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:33,399 Speaker 4: Yeah. 898 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean again a conversation wouldn't have heard it you. 899 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: I mean that time, Like some of the part of 900 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 1: me wonders, like if they care about being the last 901 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 1: to hire a coach. I mean, officially they will be, 902 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 1: since Arizona's already hired Lafloor, But how does that look? 903 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: And after reading some of the detailed reports of last offseason, 904 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 1: not getting Ben Johnson, you know, circling there to Pete Carroll, 905 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: but then that was obviously a dumpster fire. Getting Matt's 906 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 1: stafford or being able to orchestrate any sort of trade 907 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 1: for him. He goes back to the Rams to make 908 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game. I mean, when you kind of 909 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: break down what it's looked like thus far in the 910 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 1: past couple of years, it's it's. 911 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 2: Been pretty rough. 912 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,879 Speaker 1: And so I'm not like a lot of people when 913 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: we start talking about these job vacancies. You know, people 914 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 1: were throwing out Las Vegas because the number one pick, 915 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: because you think you're gonna have a long runway to 916 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 1: build something there, because they just fired Pete Carro after 917 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 1: one year. But I mean, I just I think it's 918 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 1: such an uphill battle, you know, it really is for 919 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,840 Speaker 1: that organization, with how much money they still need to 920 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: spend to improve the roster, and how much time they 921 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 1: need to give whoever the next head coach is, whether 922 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 1: it's Clinton Kobiac, which it appears to be, or anyone 923 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 1: else that comes after that. 924 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,919 Speaker 5: I wonder if they're gonna deal Crosby as well too. 925 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 5: I wonder if that's gonna happen, because. 926 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 4: It felt like like he's at the end of his Yeah, 927 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 4: he's at the end of it. 928 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 5: And also are they at a place where that's best 929 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 5: served for them to, you know, be paying him that 930 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 5: type of money when you could probably get you know, 931 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 5: pretty good draft capital and return and just start this 932 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 5: thing over. Like if you're bringing in a new coach, 933 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 5: you've got your new quarterback. I know it's tough to 934 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 5: get rid of great players, especially a guy like that, 935 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,920 Speaker 5: but I don't know, man, Like this feels like it's 936 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 5: gonna it's gonna take some time. Mendoz is going to 937 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 5: go through his his growing pains and all that, and 938 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 5: then you know, you've still got that division where the 939 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 5: Chargers feel like, you know, they've they're going to make 940 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 5: a step or take a step, hopefully health is on 941 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 5: their side. The Chiefs, you know, Mahomes gets back at 942 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 5: some point next year. It just feels like they're gonna 943 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 5: be up against it regardless. And yeah they did. The 944 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,799 Speaker 5: Ben Johnson stuff was a miss. I don't know if 945 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:47,400 Speaker 5: they were even in consideration. I don't think John Harbaugh 946 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 5: would have coached the Raiders and the same division as 947 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 5: his brother. It just feels like the usual teams you 948 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 5: mentioned earlier, Like the same teams. 949 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 4: Are usually bad year in and year out. 950 00:46:58,200 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 5: You can count on which teams are going to be 951 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 5: awful in the NFL because you're usually picking near the 952 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 5: top of the draft every single year. And I feel 953 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 5: like we've had this conversation before. Hey, Arizona and Las 954 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 5: Vegas are the last to hire their coaches. 955 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like. 956 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 4: Nobody wants it. 957 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there's a question two have dysfunction in 958 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. 959 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,839 Speaker 2: If Tom Brady's really coming on the shots but he's 960 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 2: not there all the time. 961 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 1: Imagine being the head coach and you're looking at saying like, well, 962 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 1: you know, I guess you're only a phone call away 963 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: as zoom meaning away, but you're talking with someone who's 964 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,959 Speaker 1: not there twenty four to seven through sixty five. 965 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying the owner needs to be necessarily, but. 966 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 1: If the Ultimately, if the owner is making that many 967 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 1: decisions or they're involved in that many decisions, then they 968 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 1: probably should be. 969 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,360 Speaker 2: And I think that's what makes it tough too. 970 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:47,880 Speaker 1: Is like, do you want to take a job where 971 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,839 Speaker 1: the person who is in charge of your livelihood maybe 972 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,320 Speaker 1: you're not seeing every single day. 973 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 5: You know, it's a rough go, but hey, you know what, 974 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 5: they can always get some dudewipes because if you've ever 975 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,760 Speaker 5: tried to wipe with a piece of dry toilet paper, 976 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 5: you know, you know, you've probably wondered to yourself, is 977 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 5: this as good as it gets?
