0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>play of the day, stat of the day. We've got

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 1>a pull question coming up as well. No important deadlines

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.040
<v Speaker 1>coming up this week in the NFL. Now there is

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 1>some NFL news to tell you about. And Peter King

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:44.640
<v Speaker 1>had this first. The seventeen game schedule is highly likely

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 1>in twenty twenty one. No surprise there. I was told

0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:52.560
<v Speaker 1>by a source this morning the TV deal will probably

0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 1>be finalized next week and when it is more than

0:01:56.400 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 1>likely there will be a seventeen game schedule. Now goes

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:02.960
<v Speaker 1>on to say, and he has some other items in

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>his Good Morning Football column that he has every Monday.

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:10.360
<v Speaker 1>The league calendar gets pushed back one week with a

0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>likely February thirteenth Super Bowl in Los Angeles, So no

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:20.640
<v Speaker 1>extra buy seventeen games, eighteen weekends and the Super Bowl

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:24.800
<v Speaker 1>originally scheduled for February sixth of twenty twenty two that'll

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:28.720
<v Speaker 1>be on NBC, has not officially been moved yet, but

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:32.280
<v Speaker 1>likely to be pushed back the day before Valentine's Day,

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:36.800
<v Speaker 1>February thirteenth in Los Angeles. I was also talking to

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:41.800
<v Speaker 1>a source this morning about get ready for owners to

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:45.040
<v Speaker 1>somehow find a way to combat what's going on with

0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>the player empowerment with these quarterbacks in what contracts are

0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 1>going to look like in the near future. They want

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:57.920
<v Speaker 1>to take away the power that these quarterbacks are somehow

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:02.360
<v Speaker 1>showcasing right under their nose. And I just told they

0:03:02.360 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>haven't figured it out, but you can bet if the

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:06.920
<v Speaker 1>owners can find a way, they're going to shut this down.

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:10.080
<v Speaker 1>But just some of the items that I was told

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:13.800
<v Speaker 1>about the seventeen game schedule, highly likely that the TV

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:18.480
<v Speaker 1>deals will probably be finalized coming up next week. As

0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I said, no important deadlines coming up. The teams have

0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:25.880
<v Speaker 1>until March ninth to decide on franchise tags and free agency.

0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>The official league will start on March seventeenth. The draft

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>is and until April twenty ninth. So for all the

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.720
<v Speaker 1>talk about the quarterback movements, teams should theoretically have time

0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>to figure things out. There's still time get ready for

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>the draft and also the franchise tags. Players and teams

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:47.880
<v Speaker 1>are engaged in an unprecedented public relations exercise because we

0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.800
<v Speaker 1>always hear bits and pieces of what players want or

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 1>what teams are thinking. This offseason's been crazy, like there's

0:03:55.480 --> 0:04:00.280
<v Speaker 1>been a constant stream of reports, rumors, but both sides,

0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 1>like Houston and Seattle, are being forced to address uncomfortable

0:04:04.520 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 1>situations here and even if the teams don't have to

0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:10.360
<v Speaker 1>make a decision, you can't just sit in silence, and

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 1>if you're wondering. We did reach out to Seattle. We

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 1>reached out to Pete Carroll to see if he would

0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:18.719
<v Speaker 1>like to talk about Russell Wilson. Not that he wants to,

0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:21.880
<v Speaker 1>but Fritzie made the call. We didn't get a hard

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.359
<v Speaker 1>no from the Seahawks, but if Pete Carroll decides that

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.160
<v Speaker 1>he'd like to join us or their general manager John Schneider,

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.600
<v Speaker 1>we would welcome them with open arms. We don't play

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:35.600
<v Speaker 1>sides here. We'll hear the Seahawks side and Russell's side

0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:40.039
<v Speaker 1>down the road as well. But you know, we love

0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>this information, the possibility. We always love the possibility of

0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:47.240
<v Speaker 1>something happened. It's called wishful reporting. I talk about it

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:51.200
<v Speaker 1>all the time. You want something to happen, you know,

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.919
<v Speaker 1>because a lot of times we'll talk about it and

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:58.240
<v Speaker 1>you'll go, yeah, nothing came to fruition. It's like trade deadlines. Oh,

0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:00.640
<v Speaker 1>the trade deadline. This guy's available, Well, that guy could

0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.520
<v Speaker 1>be available, and then the trade line, trade deadline comes about,

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 1>and then nobody's moved. But with what's going on with

0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson, Dak Prescott, Deshaun Watson, it feels like something's

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:15.320
<v Speaker 1>going to happen, and if one thing happens, that could

0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:19.679
<v Speaker 1>lead to a domino effect. But you start to figure

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>out what's going on with the Saints with Drew Brees.

0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:27.600
<v Speaker 1>We were told Jay Glazer this was a month ago,

0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Drew Brees retiring. Ian Rappaport joined us last week, Drew

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Brees retiring. There's a zero chance Drew Breese going to

0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:39.839
<v Speaker 1>come back and play. And now the more I thought

0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 1>about it, I went, Okay, if I'm Drew Brees, he

0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:46.400
<v Speaker 1>probably says, gosh, I got so banged up. I got

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:50.239
<v Speaker 1>all these broken ribs. I was hurt, and we almost

0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 1>beat the Buccaneers. We're not that far off. We still

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:58.280
<v Speaker 1>have a good team. And if I'm the Saints, I go, well,

0:05:58.360 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Drew Brees isn't gonna cost me that much if he

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:05.919
<v Speaker 1>comes back. Do I want Drew Brees? And then Drew Brees'

0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:10.800
<v Speaker 1>trainer posted a video of Drew Brees working out. I

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:13.599
<v Speaker 1>don't know what that means. It could be just fun.

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>They could be tweaking us a little bit. Drew Brees

0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:23.040
<v Speaker 1>is technically not retired, and I wonder because I've been

0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>around a lot of athletes in forty years. Drew Brees

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.760
<v Speaker 1>is on the short list of the most competitive people

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 1>I have ever met, not just football. I've played golf

0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>with him so much so. When I played in a

0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:40.479
<v Speaker 1>celebrity golf event in Tahoe, I had had back to

0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:44.160
<v Speaker 1>back birdies and I'm lined up for a third. Drew

0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:47.159
<v Speaker 1>Brees walks by me as I'm ready to put going.

0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:51.800
<v Speaker 1>I can't bleep and believe you could have three birdies

0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 1>in a row. And then I missed the putt. He

0:06:55.839 --> 0:07:00.600
<v Speaker 1>missed a put on the eighteenth green, and I was

0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 1>with Ben Roethlisberger. Drew walked off the green after he

0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 1>made his pot for a Park, did not shake our hands,

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 1>went to the scorers tent and went in there, and

0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:17.360
<v Speaker 1>then Roethlisberger says, well, I guess I'll shake your hand

0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:21.679
<v Speaker 1>twice for the quarterbacks in the group. So Drew Brees

0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:23.960
<v Speaker 1>isn't gonna go quietly into the night just because he

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:28.000
<v Speaker 1>has a TV deal. This is a guy who played

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:35.120
<v Speaker 1>with broken ribs eleven? Who knew you had eleven? McLevin

0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 1>and Fritzie did back Row went to class. I didn't.

0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:46.800
<v Speaker 1>I've had ribs before, Texas Ribs. That's why I don't

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.080
<v Speaker 1>know what's happening with Drew Brees. But I will say

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:53.440
<v Speaker 1>with what happened with Russell Wilson. All for the cities

0:07:53.720 --> 0:08:01.960
<v Speaker 1>that he mentioned, Dallas, Chicago, New Orleans, it was like

0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:07.680
<v Speaker 1>a coverage bomb was detonated. Nobody's talking about what's going

0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 1>on with the current quarterbacking situation. Everybody wants to talk

0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>about the possibility of Russell Wilson in New Orleans. The

0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:18.120
<v Speaker 1>New Orleans mayor trying to reach out and welcome Russell

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Wilson to town. Drew Brees hasn't retired yet Dallas, Well,

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 1>does Dallas want him? Hey? What would it take to

0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:30.840
<v Speaker 1>get him? Hey? Would we take him instead of Dak Prescott.

0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:34.280
<v Speaker 1>The Raiders, it always feels like they're half in and

0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:38.680
<v Speaker 1>half out with Derek Carr and then the Chicago Bears

0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Sure come on down. But that's what's interesting that's going

0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:48.559
<v Speaker 1>on right now, the player empowerment here with these quarterbacks

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>who are sort of dictating a game of musical chairs.

0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if Us is going to get traded.

0:08:56.000 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 1>I thought after the following season would be his last year. Seattle.

0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I have no information on that other than a gut feeling.

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:07.520
<v Speaker 1>And look at the numbers. Dak Prescott, do you want him?

0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I get the feeling that Seattle views Russell Wilson almost

0:09:13.440 --> 0:09:18.680
<v Speaker 1>the way Dallas views Dak. We're not quite sure, because

0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 1>if they were sure in Dallas, they would have signed

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Dak up almost two years ago and got a bargain.

0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Seattle sort of lets Russ cook, but they don't want

0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:33.559
<v Speaker 1>to do they take him for granted, we want to

0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:37.480
<v Speaker 1>run the ball, Well, you don't have Marshawn Lynchin anymore. Oh,

0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:39.319
<v Speaker 1>we want to play great defense. You don't have the

0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:43.559
<v Speaker 1>Legion of Boom anymore. Russ. It's thirteen to nine, we're trailing.

0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Fourth quarter. Can he help us win another game, all right.

0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I never felt like Seattle was all in on Russell

0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Wilson on letting him cook, and Dallas with Dak Prescott. Yeah,

0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.559
<v Speaker 1>but he won the first round pick. I don't know

0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:02.600
<v Speaker 1>they had a good offensive line, hey, Zeke. And yeah,

0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:04.840
<v Speaker 1>he's got some weapons in there. We're not quite sure.

0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Now you look at the mess that they're in. Now,

0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.400
<v Speaker 1>you got to pay him thirty seven million, and if

0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.400
<v Speaker 1>you bring him back with a franchise tag after that,

0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 1>it's fifty two million. You could have had him almost

0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>two years ago for a bargain. But something's happening. And

0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:28.880
<v Speaker 1>here's another thing. Houston Chronicles. John McLean wrote a strong

0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:31.120
<v Speaker 1>column saying it's time for the Texans to listen to

0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>trade offers for Deshaun Watson. There are a lot of

0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:38.760
<v Speaker 1>columnists who might say something like this in a situation

0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:43.800
<v Speaker 1>like this. When John McClean says something like this, listen,

0:10:46.000 --> 0:10:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I think John McClean is as dialed in as any

0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:54.400
<v Speaker 1>columnist in America with their team. He was there before

0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:59.640
<v Speaker 1>the Texans were there. And if John McClean says now's

0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:02.880
<v Speaker 1>the time him to start listening for offers, I think

0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the Texans are going to start listening for offers, all right,

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:09.520
<v Speaker 1>mclove and you got a pull question for me? Oh man,

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:12.000
<v Speaker 1>there's so many QB questions here. The one I was

0:11:12.080 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 1>excited about before the show is who would you rather

0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:18.600
<v Speaker 1>have Dak Prescott or Russell Wilson With the possibility that

0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys tag Dak Prescott and then they're allowed to

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:25.640
<v Speaker 1>trade him to Seattle, do we know if that's possible? Yeah,

0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:27.679
<v Speaker 1>I was just looking up. Schefter had said that if

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.280
<v Speaker 1>they tag him and he accepts the tag, they can

0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:33.520
<v Speaker 1>trade him. But Dak, because of the status of the tag,

0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:36.560
<v Speaker 1>has an in effect of no trade clause according to Schefter,

0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:39.440
<v Speaker 1>so basically has to agree to it. But they can

0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.600
<v Speaker 1>do sort of a sign and trade thing as long

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 1>as he signs a FRANTI so wishful trade rumors are

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:47.839
<v Speaker 1>the best, and if you involve the Cowboys that it's

0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:53.680
<v Speaker 1>just like give me the clicks. Yeah. Well, here's what

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:57.680
<v Speaker 1>I was told this morning. Just because we look at

0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson's contract now with three years, doesn't mean Russ

0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:05.760
<v Speaker 1>is not going to say to his new employer, I

0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 1>want to renegotiate new team, new deal. You might look

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.760
<v Speaker 1>at Russ and go, we're getting a Super Bowl, We're

0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 1>getting a Hall of Fame quarterback, and we're gonna get

0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:22.920
<v Speaker 1>him in a bargain. And Matthew Stafford said he wasn't

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:27.080
<v Speaker 1>going to renegotiate his contract with the Rams. I don't

0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:32.079
<v Speaker 1>know from what I'm told, new team, new deal, Russell

0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Wilson Junior the third. If I'm Dallas, I just don't

0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:42.480
<v Speaker 1>know how they feel about Dak. I have a sense

0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 1>of how they feel about Dak. Jerry Jones tells you

0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:47.760
<v Speaker 1>everything you want to hear. We love Dak, he's a leader,

0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:52.360
<v Speaker 1>he's okay, but you didn't sign him, and then you

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:57.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't sign him, and now where are we going franchise Tagville.

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:01.120
<v Speaker 1>If I'm Dallas and I get Russell Wilson at his

0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:08.480
<v Speaker 1>current deal, then yes, I would strongly consider that. It's

0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 1>seventy five million over three years. It's a bargain Dak.

0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Dak's going to cost me more than that the next

0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:24.200
<v Speaker 1>two years, thirty seven and fifty two. But then I'm

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:29.480
<v Speaker 1>giving up draft picks to get Russell Wilson. Game on

0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:35.000
<v Speaker 1>the line, who do you want? It's not that hot.

0:13:35.080 --> 0:13:39.800
<v Speaker 1>It's Russell Wilson. He's proven that, But Dak Prescott at

0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven, Russ is thirty two, going to be thirty

0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:47.360
<v Speaker 1>three during the season, I think Russ stays in Seattle,

0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Dak stays in Dallas, and I think DeShawn Watson is

0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:57.200
<v Speaker 1>eventually going to get traded because I think the Texans

0:13:57.240 --> 0:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>are going to go what makes the most sense for

0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.600
<v Speaker 1>us right now and in the future. Do we hold

0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.840
<v Speaker 1>on to him for dear life and then you know

0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:12.920
<v Speaker 1>he sits out if he comes back begrudgingly, you just

0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 1>don't want to James Harden situation where James Harden got

0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:18.400
<v Speaker 1>out there on the floor and mailed it in. We

0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:22.320
<v Speaker 1>quit on the Rockets because he wanted out. Not that

0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Deshaun would do that, but James Harden got out because

0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>of that. But if I'm the Texans and you're at

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the point of no return, put it out there open market,

0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:41.480
<v Speaker 1>have a for sales sign, because now is when you

0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 1>need to get the Jets and the Dolphins competing with

0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:49.480
<v Speaker 1>each other. Those are the two teams I'm told. If

0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>I can get them to compete with each other, now

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 1>I can get you know, a windfall of picks and players.

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I get to h or maybe I get Sam Darnold.

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's the band aid quarterback that I have right now.

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.680
<v Speaker 1>But if I am, I would absolutely trade with the

0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Jets because the Jets aren't going to be good for

0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:16.360
<v Speaker 1>a little while. Dolphins, even if they lose two and

0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the number three overall pick, I still feel like Miami

0:15:19.280 --> 0:15:22.160
<v Speaker 1>is a playoff caliber two. You want to trade with

0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:26.080
<v Speaker 1>somebody who is not going to be good so you

0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:31.040
<v Speaker 1>can get their draft pick. I mean, the Dolphins got

0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 1>the Texans draft pick at number three overall. But if

0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>you said, right now, what do I think is happening?

0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Dak stays in Dallas, Russell Wilson is going to stay

0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:44.040
<v Speaker 1>in Seattle. But I do think that Deshaun Watson and

0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:46.640
<v Speaker 1>the Texans will eventually have a divorce. Yeah, pull, I

0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.120
<v Speaker 1>was reading the New Orleans coverage this weekend. It's fascinating

0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:52.760
<v Speaker 1>because they have the possibility Russell Wilson, the possibility of

0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Breeze coming back. Jamis Winston kind of sitting there in

0:15:55.960 --> 0:15:57.920
<v Speaker 1>no man's land because they didn't pay him last year,

0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:00.280
<v Speaker 1>but he's kind of on their roster and they have

0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Taysom Hill completely under contract and they used him at

0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:06.840
<v Speaker 1>quarterback this year, so it's a fascinating situation. They got

0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:10.400
<v Speaker 1>four options for one spot, and I was given information.

0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:12.960
<v Speaker 1>I guess it was last week. Maybe it was the

0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 1>week before I lost track about these specific teams that

0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson pointed out four teams. Like what agent says

0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:25.640
<v Speaker 1>to Adam Schefter publicly, this isn't a sources close to

0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:29.120
<v Speaker 1>me is this is who I got it from. I mean,

0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:32.880
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't happen. Not off the record, that doesn't happen.

0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:38.760
<v Speaker 1>And I was told that these were teams that had

0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:43.840
<v Speaker 1>already been preidentified by Russell Wilson and his agent, But

0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.960
<v Speaker 1>Fritzie checked him with Mike Florio, and Florio said that

0:16:47.040 --> 0:16:50.360
<v Speaker 1>he had not heard about a specific list of four teams,

0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:54.360
<v Speaker 1>but that the Cowboys were on his radar screen. But

0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:59.880
<v Speaker 1>an agent specifically identifying four teams on the record, It's

0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:03.360
<v Speaker 1>not a question of if, but when with Russell Wilson.

0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:11.159
<v Speaker 1>And if I'm Seattle, does Russ is he too big

0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:16.159
<v Speaker 1>for this team? I guess he's he a celebrity, Is

0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:18.760
<v Speaker 1>he a star? Is he more than just a quarterback?

0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:22.159
<v Speaker 1>Like you start to wonder what Seattle's side of the

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:28.119
<v Speaker 1>equation is here, and I that would concern me because

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Pete Carroll wants and has total autonomy, and you don't

0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:34.399
<v Speaker 1>want Russell Wilson coming and saying this is what I

0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:37.439
<v Speaker 1>think we should be doing. Although I would listen to

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Russ because Russ is the guy that you, with your

0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:47.280
<v Speaker 1>game plan force him to win games for you late

0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 1>in the fourth quarter. Yeah, mcluve, I noticed one thing

0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.359
<v Speaker 1>in that Athletic article that there's still tension that Pete

0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Carroll wants to run the ball all the times. Is

0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:58.640
<v Speaker 1>that kind of underlying this whole situation still? Yes? And

0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Pete that's who he is. Pete wants to run the football,

0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:04.520
<v Speaker 1>play defense. Well, they don't run it the way they

0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:07.200
<v Speaker 1>used too with Marshawn Lynch, and they don't play defense

0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:09.359
<v Speaker 1>the way they did with the Legion of Boom. The

0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:13.600
<v Speaker 1>one constant is you still have Russell Wilson there. But

0:18:13.680 --> 0:18:16.720
<v Speaker 1>I just I've never gotten the feeling that they're totally

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:21.679
<v Speaker 1>confident with Russell Wilson running the offense. And there are

0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 1>other quarterbacks with less stature who are given more freedom

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:30.240
<v Speaker 1>it feels like, to run their offense. And that's what's dangerous.

0:18:31.560 --> 0:18:35.399
<v Speaker 1>This program brought to you by Built Barr sixteen grams

<v Speaker 1>you saw that you liked you didn't like. We'll talk

0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:59.800
<v Speaker 1>to the great reporter for the NFL network, Jane Slater,

0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:05.879
<v Speaker 1>about the possibility of Zach or Dak Prescott and Russell

0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Wilson exchanging positions there. Wait, are you putting Zach Wilson

0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:15.399
<v Speaker 1>in this scenario? My bad Zach and Dak and my

0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:18.720
<v Speaker 1>bad and Shack Shack is coming up in the final

0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:21.840
<v Speaker 1>hour of the show. Take a break here twenty after

0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:26.320
<v Speaker 1>the hour. This is the Dan Patrick Show. I went

0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:28.800
<v Speaker 1>back into my office over the weekend and I noticed

0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:32.959
<v Speaker 1>that I had an unopened built bar box there, and

0:19:33.160 --> 0:19:35.879
<v Speaker 1>I decided that I was going to be philanthropic. I

0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:39.480
<v Speaker 1>was gonna be charitable. I brought it out there. It's

0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 1>in the mail room. You guys, if you would like

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.160
<v Speaker 1>to have a built bar today, and sometimes you want

0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:46.400
<v Speaker 1>to have that instead of a meal. But it's out there.

0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:51.760
<v Speaker 1>The salted caramel flavor built bar is out there. I

0:19:51.880 --> 0:19:53.720
<v Speaker 1>made sure there are a couple of those for Todd.

0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 1>There's also mint brownie, there's cookies and cream, there's coconut.

0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:01.000
<v Speaker 1>And the reason why I sound this way is because

0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I told the Dan it's about it, and then nobody

0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:07.040
<v Speaker 1>had anything. They didn't want anything, and they were like,

0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:09.480
<v Speaker 1>oh no, you know, it's if you're gonna get in shape,

0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:11.800

0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:31.639
<v Speaker 1>NFL network reporter ship some interesting information on why a

0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Dallas deal for Russell Wilson would have a major obstacle.

0:21:37.720 --> 0:21:39.480
<v Speaker 1>By the way, a friend of the show had a

0:21:39.520 --> 0:21:42.960
<v Speaker 1>hole in one yesterday. You guys want to play who

0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:45.719
<v Speaker 1>had the hole in one? Friendzie, don't start with you,

0:21:45.760 --> 0:21:48.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say Darius Rucker. Darius Rucker of Hoodie and

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:52.000
<v Speaker 1>the Blowfish mclovin. I think Jim Nance, who lost to

0:21:52.040 --> 0:21:54.639
<v Speaker 1>me in the backyard golf tournament, last time we were

0:21:54.640 --> 0:21:58.399
<v Speaker 1>Hello friends, Set O'Connor, I'm gonna say the great Al Michael,

0:21:58.520 --> 0:22:02.680
<v Speaker 1>the great Al Michaels not a great golfer though, uh Paul.

0:22:03.119 --> 0:22:05.600
<v Speaker 1>He mentioned he was getting back into golf last week.

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:09.679
<v Speaker 1>Adam Sandler ding Ding, Ding ding Ding. Adam Sandler had

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:12.920
<v Speaker 1>a hole in one yesterday and he seemed a little

0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:17.320
<v Speaker 1>embarrassed because I said, somebody is ready for Shooter McGavin here,

0:22:18.000 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and he said, yeah, starting to get a little bit better,

0:22:20.600 --> 0:22:22.879
<v Speaker 1>a little more, a little more into golf here. But

0:22:23.200 --> 0:22:25.879
<v Speaker 1>Sam Man had a hole in one yesterday. Whole question

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:27.880
<v Speaker 1>that I got to get to James Slater. She's very

0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 1>busy today. Okay, you didn't say I couldn't do it,

0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:31.919
<v Speaker 1>So I'm gonna put it up. Who would you rather have,

0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Dak Prett, Scott or Russell Wilson? Well, what team? The

0:22:36.359 --> 0:22:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys in the sea. You're the Cowboys and you could,

0:22:38.960 --> 0:22:41.760
<v Speaker 1>let's say, hypothetically, you could do this trade. This is it?

0:22:41.920 --> 0:22:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh god, this is close to be reality. No. No.

0:22:46.480 --> 0:22:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Mark Rogers called Adam Schefter and said to the Cowboys,

0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:51.719
<v Speaker 1>why what I'm yelling at me? Because this is not clicks?

0:22:51.800 --> 0:22:54.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, let me bring in James Slater. She doesn't

0:22:54.040 --> 0:22:56.840
<v Speaker 1>deal with clicks. She is Clicks NFL Network reporter. You

0:22:56.840 --> 0:23:02.040
<v Speaker 1>can follow her on Twitter at Slater NFL. I Jane,

0:23:02.080 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>separate fact from fiction here, can you? I'm with you, Dan,

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:11.120
<v Speaker 1>and you know how this works. You've been doing covering

0:23:11.560 --> 0:23:14.320
<v Speaker 1>the league long enough, You've been keeping an eye on

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys long enough. Anytime you put the Dallas Cowboys

0:23:17.800 --> 0:23:20.640
<v Speaker 1>in a headline, people are going to talk about it.

0:23:20.960 --> 0:23:24.000
<v Speaker 1>And so we're talking about this because a report came

0:23:24.040 --> 0:23:27.560
<v Speaker 1>out from atom schefter that he would entertain a trade

0:23:27.800 --> 0:23:31.119
<v Speaker 1>if it was Dallas in the Cowboys. So of course,

0:23:31.160 --> 0:23:33.520
<v Speaker 1>now it's the off season, we haven't heard a lot

0:23:33.520 --> 0:23:36.600
<v Speaker 1>about this debt contract, so now everyone's talking about it.

0:23:36.680 --> 0:23:38.240
<v Speaker 1>But when I reached out to one of my team sources,

0:23:38.280 --> 0:23:40.399
<v Speaker 1>they found it laughable. And that's because they are still

0:23:40.440 --> 0:23:43.439
<v Speaker 1>trying to truly get this long term deal done and

0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:45.680
<v Speaker 1>we're looking at the tag being somewhere around thirty seven

0:23:45.720 --> 0:23:48.760
<v Speaker 1>point seven million dollars. We are going to probably hear

0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:52.800
<v Speaker 1>something about that closer to that tag deadline of March ninth,

0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:55.359
<v Speaker 1>and then they're gonna have to clear some cap space

0:23:55.440 --> 0:23:58.440
<v Speaker 1>by March seventeenth to start really effectively having those long

0:23:58.560 --> 0:24:00.560
<v Speaker 1>term discussions, and then they of course shut this thing

0:24:00.600 --> 0:24:04.159
<v Speaker 1>down in June. I don't think he's heading for a

0:24:04.200 --> 0:24:06.600
<v Speaker 1>third tag. They can still do that. That third tag

0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:08.240
<v Speaker 1>is going to be somewhere in the market of fifty

0:24:08.240 --> 0:24:12.840
<v Speaker 1>four million dollars, which is absurd. They could, of course

0:24:12.880 --> 0:24:15.680
<v Speaker 1>give him the non exclusive tag that gives them five

0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:18.440
<v Speaker 1>days to match an offer from another team, then possibly

0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:22.119
<v Speaker 1>pick up two first round compensatory picks. But the goal

0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:24.360
<v Speaker 1>here is still to get him signed to a long

0:24:24.480 --> 0:24:27.800
<v Speaker 1>term deal. And why would they continue using these costly

0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:30.919
<v Speaker 1>tags on him if they didn't feel like he was

0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:33.520
<v Speaker 1>their franchise guy. And oh, by the way, last year's

0:24:33.520 --> 0:24:37.399
<v Speaker 1>money was in the ballpark of Russell Wilson slash Jared

0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Golf type money. Now he's looking to be paid right

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:42.760
<v Speaker 1>behind Patrick Mahomes, a guy who's gone to the Super

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Bowl two years in a row. Dak hasn't done that yet.

0:24:45.560 --> 0:24:48.240
<v Speaker 1>So they feel like it's been a respectable offer. His

0:24:48.400 --> 0:24:51.439
<v Speaker 1>camp believes that he needs to bear what the market

0:24:51.560 --> 0:24:54.320
<v Speaker 1>value is and they feel like this deal should have

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:57.920
<v Speaker 1>gotten done two years ago. So your problems with money

0:24:57.960 --> 0:25:01.639
<v Speaker 1>aren't our problems. It's about respect. So there still is

0:25:01.680 --> 0:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>no change from last year in years past, and there

0:25:04.520 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 1>has to be some give by both sides in order

0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:08.680
<v Speaker 1>to get this done. But I truly feel like they

0:25:08.760 --> 0:25:11.119
<v Speaker 1>want to get it done, and as I was told

0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:13.800
<v Speaker 1>by a team source, it feels and their tone kind

0:25:13.800 --> 0:25:15.960
<v Speaker 1>of went up a bit, a little bit more productive,

0:25:16.040 --> 0:25:18.360
<v Speaker 1>but there still haven't been a lot of meaningful conversations.

0:25:18.800 --> 0:25:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Why do you think Russell Wilson's agent named teams, Well,

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:27.000
<v Speaker 1>for the reasons we just outlined there earlier. I think

0:25:27.040 --> 0:25:31.280
<v Speaker 1>you named teams the Saints for instance. That sounds like

0:25:31.280 --> 0:25:34.159
<v Speaker 1>a great destination for a guy like Russell Wilson. But

0:25:34.320 --> 0:25:38.520
<v Speaker 1>when those teams consider it, or they pick up the phone,

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:41.040
<v Speaker 1>their next question is, well, how much is this going

0:25:41.119 --> 0:25:44.280
<v Speaker 1>to cost us? And I keep bringing up Seattle versus

0:25:44.359 --> 0:25:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Dallas because Seattle's front office has made a lot of

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:51.760
<v Speaker 1>potential trades very costly for Dallas. And I mentioned Earl

0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Thomas last week. I mentioned Jamal Adams. Now he was,

0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:58.520
<v Speaker 1>of course with the Jets. Cowboys and good Faith tried

0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:01.200
<v Speaker 1>to go after him Seattle Jump and said we'll pay

0:26:01.240 --> 0:26:04.080
<v Speaker 1>you what you want. Then I was told that the

0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:07.399
<v Speaker 1>Seahawks wanted Alden Smith last year, the Cowboys in that

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:10.080
<v Speaker 1>experiment wasn't exactly working at times. Last year there was

0:26:10.119 --> 0:26:11.800
<v Speaker 1>a disruption in the pH balance with some of the

0:26:11.840 --> 0:26:15.240
<v Speaker 1>free agents could have gotten rid of him. Then their

0:26:15.280 --> 0:26:18.800
<v Speaker 1>answer was no. In other words, they're either resign him

0:26:19.240 --> 0:26:21.600
<v Speaker 1>or they'll find a way to move him off the

0:26:21.600 --> 0:26:23.960
<v Speaker 1>books and they get a compensatory pick. But because it

0:26:24.000 --> 0:26:27.119
<v Speaker 1>was Seattle, the deal didn't get done. Well. You also

0:26:27.280 --> 0:26:31.480
<v Speaker 1>have Russell Wilson, the thirty nine million dollar cap hit.

0:26:32.240 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Russ is it's weird. It feels like

0:26:35.960 --> 0:26:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Russ and his agent won it both ways. Hey, we

0:26:39.400 --> 0:26:42.639
<v Speaker 1>want to stay in Seattle, but if you want to

0:26:42.680 --> 0:26:44.600
<v Speaker 1>trade us, here are the four teams that we're going

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:46.800
<v Speaker 1>to go to. But I do think the cap hit

0:26:46.920 --> 0:26:49.679
<v Speaker 1>is really important. Jane, I love that you bring that

0:26:49.760 --> 0:26:51.840
<v Speaker 1>up because a lot of people love to come up

0:26:51.880 --> 0:26:55.439
<v Speaker 1>with these borrow phrase from Mike McCarthy last year. You know,

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:57.480
<v Speaker 1>some of you guys are playing fantasy football. You know,

0:26:57.520 --> 0:26:58.840
<v Speaker 1>as it related to what he would do with his

0:26:58.880 --> 0:27:02.160
<v Speaker 1>offensive line, do that as it relates to Russell Wilson

0:27:02.280 --> 0:27:05.560
<v Speaker 1>and whatever team, whether it be Dallas or another trading

0:27:05.600 --> 0:27:09.119
<v Speaker 1>for him, Seattle also is on the hook. For his

0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:12.240
<v Speaker 1>guaranteed money. So Seattle is going to be okay giving

0:27:12.280 --> 0:27:15.439
<v Speaker 1>him the guaranteed money and especially go and win in

0:27:15.520 --> 0:27:18.520
<v Speaker 1>another NFC with another NFC team that we're gonna have

0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:20.920
<v Speaker 1>to play a couple of years down the line. Now, look,

0:27:21.000 --> 0:27:22.800
<v Speaker 1>could the Cowboys sweeten the dal and say, all right,

0:27:23.000 --> 0:27:25.160
<v Speaker 1>we're going to convince Dak to sign the franchise tag,

0:27:25.200 --> 0:27:28.119
<v Speaker 1>which again is just crazy to me. We'll convince him

0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:30.480
<v Speaker 1>to sign the franchise tag, and then we're going to

0:27:30.600 --> 0:27:33.320
<v Speaker 1>get his approval to trade up, but we're also probably

0:27:33.320 --> 0:27:35.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to give up some other things that comes

0:27:35.520 --> 0:27:39.199
<v Speaker 1>with DAK. So it's asset heavy to move Russell Wilson

0:27:39.240 --> 0:27:41.280
<v Speaker 1>off the books. I think this is a missive I

0:27:41.320 --> 0:27:43.520
<v Speaker 1>think this is a way of saying, Pete Carroll get

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:46.400
<v Speaker 1>on the same page with Russ Either. Let Russ Cook

0:27:47.400 --> 0:27:50.080
<v Speaker 1>find a way that you guys can make this offense work.

0:27:50.640 --> 0:27:53.200
<v Speaker 1>But when you bring up Dallas, could it happen with

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:55.920
<v Speaker 1>another team? Absolutely shut. We've seen these sort of trades happen.

0:27:56.520 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 1>We've certainly seen Jared Goff go to Detroit and Matt

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Stafford come to La. These things happen, just specifically with

0:28:03.160 --> 0:28:05.080
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys. At people I've spoken to you, and the

0:28:05.080 --> 0:28:08.600
<v Speaker 1>way the money bears out, it just absolutely makes no sense.

0:28:08.600 --> 0:28:10.040
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of people I love coming at me

0:28:10.080 --> 0:28:13.440
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter and wanting to tell me ways that they've

0:28:13.480 --> 0:28:16.720
<v Speaker 1>figured out it can happen. I'm telling you it can't happen.

0:28:17.320 --> 0:28:20.760
<v Speaker 1>We're talking to James Slater, NFL network reporter, help me

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:24.520
<v Speaker 1>understand Drew Brees a situation with New Orleans of what

0:28:24.640 --> 0:28:27.040
<v Speaker 1>is he waiting for to make his announcement one way

0:28:27.119 --> 0:28:31.240
<v Speaker 1>or another? Great question, because if you'll recall last year

0:28:31.800 --> 0:28:34.440
<v Speaker 1>we were sitting here having this. I feel like it's

0:28:34.480 --> 0:28:36.440
<v Speaker 1>sort of groundhog Day for me as it relates to

0:28:36.440 --> 0:28:38.960
<v Speaker 1>the two teams that I cover in the quarterbacks. Last year,

0:28:39.000 --> 0:28:41.800
<v Speaker 1>we kept waiting when is the Drew Brees announcement? And

0:28:41.880 --> 0:28:45.000
<v Speaker 1>of course he ended up coming back even though NBC

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:47.120
<v Speaker 1>was waiting in the wings. And I can tell you

0:28:47.160 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 1>this is one thousand percent accurate. Tom Brady was on

0:28:50.480 --> 0:28:52.920
<v Speaker 1>his way to New Orleans. So of course all of

0:28:53.000 --> 0:28:55.520
<v Speaker 1>us can talk about the hypotheticals that would have applied

0:28:55.520 --> 0:28:57.480
<v Speaker 1>to the Saints if Tom Brady had come over and

0:28:57.560 --> 0:28:59.440
<v Speaker 1>him and Sean Payton had gotten in the lab together,

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:02.720
<v Speaker 1>what they could have been capable of. I reached out

0:29:02.920 --> 0:29:05.360
<v Speaker 1>to the Saints last week and I said, any chance

0:29:05.920 --> 0:29:09.080
<v Speaker 1>we saw Drew Brees kind of give that final look

0:29:09.280 --> 0:29:12.880
<v Speaker 1>as he's leaving the dome. I covered that game. It

0:29:12.920 --> 0:29:16.480
<v Speaker 1>was deflating. It was heartbreaking to watch him throwing a

0:29:16.560 --> 0:29:20.200
<v Speaker 1>touchdown pass to Breeze's son and Brittany Breeze and the

0:29:20.240 --> 0:29:22.040
<v Speaker 1>kids that are on the field with Tom Brady and

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:24.000
<v Speaker 1>the tears coming down his face on the bench and

0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:26.719
<v Speaker 1>not even getting a hero send off. It felt more

0:29:26.760 --> 0:29:29.680
<v Speaker 1>like a funeral. And so you think to yourself, does

0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:32.880
<v Speaker 1>he pull have Ben Roethlisberger and come back next year

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:35.640
<v Speaker 1>and get the hero send off that he deserves for

0:29:35.680 --> 0:29:38.320
<v Speaker 1>what he and Sean have done for that city collectively.

0:29:38.600 --> 0:29:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I was told, no, he is retiring. He's just taking

0:29:42.040 --> 0:29:44.840
<v Speaker 1>his time, you know, making this decision. And keep in

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:49.080
<v Speaker 1>mind interesting sidebar. Last week, of course, Tiger Woods was

0:29:49.160 --> 0:29:52.440
<v Speaker 1>on his way to see Drew Brees, and Justin Herbert

0:29:52.440 --> 0:29:55.600
<v Speaker 1>was my understanding. Tiger was doing some sort of work

0:29:55.600 --> 0:29:58.000
<v Speaker 1>for Golf Tour TV, and so he's supposed to enter

0:29:58.280 --> 0:30:00.680
<v Speaker 1>interview Drew. So maybe Drew read the room and felt

0:30:00.720 --> 0:30:03.520
<v Speaker 1>like this wasn't the time either. But in talking to

0:30:03.560 --> 0:30:06.800
<v Speaker 1>people with that organization, how we handle it moving forward

0:30:06.840 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 1>in terms of media. My senses that it's coming pretty

0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:12.400
<v Speaker 1>soon here. Do you think Brady would have preferred the

0:30:12.400 --> 0:30:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Saints over the Buccaneers. It's a good question. I mean,

0:30:16.080 --> 0:30:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Sean Payton is a different coach than Bruce Arians. It

0:30:20.400 --> 0:30:23.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of feels like Jimmy Johnson versus Barry Switzer again

0:30:23.400 --> 0:30:26.960
<v Speaker 1>to kind of compare the two coaches, and then you've

0:30:26.960 --> 0:30:29.040
<v Speaker 1>got Troittman, of course being Tom Brady in the scenario.

0:30:30.280 --> 0:30:33.080
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to say. I know that Tom Brady and

0:30:33.120 --> 0:30:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Sean Payton's work ethic probably would have matched. I think

0:30:36.760 --> 0:30:43.680
<v Speaker 1>their intensity would have matched, but Bruce's approach it's sort

0:30:43.680 --> 0:30:45.560
<v Speaker 1>of this hands off I don't know if you've ever

0:30:45.640 --> 0:30:47.160
<v Speaker 1>dealt with this in your career. It's kind of like

0:30:47.160 --> 0:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the person who sort of hands off makes you feel

0:30:49.720 --> 0:30:52.440
<v Speaker 1>like they're not as invested or as hands on, and

0:30:52.440 --> 0:30:55.080
<v Speaker 1>it sort of motivates you a little bit more. We

0:30:55.200 --> 0:30:57.720
<v Speaker 1>sort of sol the subtlety of that with Bruce Arians

0:30:57.800 --> 0:31:01.320
<v Speaker 1>calling out Tom publicly elier in the year, and so

0:31:01.840 --> 0:31:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. And I also think just for you know,

0:31:05.440 --> 0:31:08.240
<v Speaker 1>just happiness in terms of living close to the beach

0:31:08.280 --> 0:31:11.480
<v Speaker 1>there in Florida and the life that he and Gizella

0:31:11.560 --> 0:31:13.360
<v Speaker 1>the kids have, which is why they sort of left

0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:15.120
<v Speaker 1>New England. You know, they wanted a change a pace.

0:31:15.440 --> 0:31:18.320
<v Speaker 1>I think from a personal standpoint, probably the work life

0:31:18.320 --> 0:31:20.600
<v Speaker 1>balance is a little bit better for him and Florida.

0:31:20.640 --> 0:31:23.320
<v Speaker 1>But again that's just me thinking out loud. I brought

0:31:23.320 --> 0:31:26.280
<v Speaker 1>this up about fifteen minutes ago the Houston Chronicles, John

0:31:26.360 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 1>McClain wrote a strong column saying it's time for the

0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Texans to listen to trade offers for Deshaun Watson. That

0:31:31.960 --> 0:31:35.440
<v Speaker 1>got my attention because we know John is as dialed

0:31:35.480 --> 0:31:39.400
<v Speaker 1>in with the team as much as any reporter columnist

0:31:39.560 --> 0:31:43.720
<v Speaker 1>is with any team in America. In my opinion, if

0:31:43.720 --> 0:31:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you had a better week's pay, is Deshaun Watson with

0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:50.040
<v Speaker 1>the Texans starting this season? Doesn't feel like it. You know,

0:31:50.040 --> 0:31:53.200
<v Speaker 1>I've talked to some people that have been involved with

0:31:53.240 --> 0:31:55.880
<v Speaker 1>that coaching search and how that went down. There is

0:31:55.880 --> 0:32:00.760
<v Speaker 1>a real funny dynamic as it relates to easterby McNair.

0:32:01.720 --> 0:32:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Nick Kossari, I think kind of got thrown into this

0:32:05.560 --> 0:32:08.640
<v Speaker 1>unlikely partnership, and I feel like he's trying to write

0:32:08.640 --> 0:32:12.520
<v Speaker 1>the ship he's trying to give it a little bit

0:32:12.520 --> 0:32:15.760
<v Speaker 1>of stability. But of course, when JJ Watt leaves, you know,

0:32:15.800 --> 0:32:18.760
<v Speaker 1>then you had the VP of Communications, Amy Palsick. She's

0:32:18.800 --> 0:32:21.240
<v Speaker 1>out the door to Bill O'Brien. Of course, you could

0:32:21.240 --> 0:32:23.320
<v Speaker 1>say what she wanted about Bill, but a lot of

0:32:23.320 --> 0:32:25.680
<v Speaker 1>people liked Bill in that building. I think he just

0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:27.840
<v Speaker 1>probably took on too many titles. He should have just

0:32:27.880 --> 0:32:31.120
<v Speaker 1>focused on the coaching as opposed to GM. But with

0:32:31.400 --> 0:32:34.320
<v Speaker 1>your star quarterback being this disgruntled, that then I think

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:36.600
<v Speaker 1>becomes a cancer in the locker room. It starts to spread,

0:32:36.640 --> 0:32:40.080
<v Speaker 1>it starts to permeate. I think he's playing hardball, and

0:32:40.080 --> 0:32:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I think ultimately he's gonna end up. I mean, I

0:32:41.800 --> 0:32:44.320
<v Speaker 1>look back to the Jamal Adam situation. Remember he did

0:32:44.400 --> 0:32:46.760
<v Speaker 1>not want to be with the Jets. And I don't

0:32:46.800 --> 0:32:48.640
<v Speaker 1>think the NFL is a lot like the NBA that

0:32:48.680 --> 0:32:51.320
<v Speaker 1>a star can necessarily demand a trade. But we are

0:32:51.360 --> 0:32:53.080
<v Speaker 1>seeing a lot of people become a little bit more

0:32:53.080 --> 0:32:56.080
<v Speaker 1>successful with this in years past. But I just feel

0:32:56.080 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 1>like that's a situation that is broken and in order

0:32:59.080 --> 0:33:01.920
<v Speaker 1>for Houston to story turned the page and had the

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:05.200
<v Speaker 1>success that they're looking for, meaningful success, they're probably gonna

0:33:05.200 --> 0:33:06.600
<v Speaker 1>have to do that with somebody else is going to

0:33:06.680 --> 0:33:08.720
<v Speaker 1>come in there and buy into what that system is

0:33:08.760 --> 0:33:10.239
<v Speaker 1>down there. But it doesn't feel like de Shaun's going

0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:13.400
<v Speaker 1>to be the guy to do it. And I always

0:33:13.440 --> 0:33:16.280
<v Speaker 1>find the situation fascinating when somebody wants out of a

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:18.800
<v Speaker 1>place and then they go to another place and they

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:21.719
<v Speaker 1>look around, they go, wait a minute, we don't have

0:33:21.760 --> 0:33:24.080
<v Speaker 1>anybody here. We gave up our draft picks, we gave

0:33:24.160 --> 0:33:27.560
<v Speaker 1>up our best defensive player. If Deshaun wants and goes

0:33:27.600 --> 0:33:31.080
<v Speaker 1>to the Jets, you're going to be giving up your

0:33:31.160 --> 0:33:33.320
<v Speaker 1>draft picks. You're going to give up some talent. If

0:33:33.360 --> 0:33:35.400
<v Speaker 1>you go to Miami, it's going to be the same thing.

0:33:35.520 --> 0:33:38.719
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't have any talent in Houston, and it feels

0:33:38.720 --> 0:33:41.960
<v Speaker 1>like it's a lateral move. Now. You know, maybe he'll

0:33:41.960 --> 0:33:44.280
<v Speaker 1>like that owner more than he likes the owner or

0:33:44.320 --> 0:33:46.880
<v Speaker 1>the front office a little bit more. But to me,

0:33:46.920 --> 0:33:50.080
<v Speaker 1>it seems kind of crazy that the more valuable you are,

0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the more capital you bring in return, and you're going

0:33:53.080 --> 0:33:54.800
<v Speaker 1>to be it's going to be a lateral move. It's

0:33:54.840 --> 0:33:57.680
<v Speaker 1>two steps forward, two steps back. That's a great point.

0:33:57.680 --> 0:33:59.240
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people don't think about the things that

0:33:59.360 --> 0:34:01.920
<v Speaker 1>you have to put around a quarterback in order to

0:34:01.960 --> 0:34:03.760
<v Speaker 1>be successful. That's why a lot of the quarterbacks that

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:07.480
<v Speaker 1>are successful or on that first contract because you're able

0:34:07.480 --> 0:34:09.560
<v Speaker 1>to put the pieces around them, which is again going

0:34:09.560 --> 0:34:12.759
<v Speaker 1>back to the cowboy application. When Dak Prescott was making

0:34:12.800 --> 0:34:15.440
<v Speaker 1>in the four hundred thousand dollars range, sure it was

0:34:15.520 --> 0:34:18.840
<v Speaker 1>easy to pay your running back and your wide receivers,

0:34:18.840 --> 0:34:21.719
<v Speaker 1>and your offensive linemen and defensive players. But when you

0:34:21.760 --> 0:34:24.640
<v Speaker 1>start talking about you're eating up twenty thirty percent of

0:34:24.640 --> 0:34:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the cap, it's really really hard to put those pieces

0:34:27.280 --> 0:34:28.880
<v Speaker 1>around you in order to be meaningful. The reason why

0:34:28.880 --> 0:34:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady was so successful for so long in New

0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:33.560
<v Speaker 1>England as he always joked that Gazelle made a lot

0:34:33.560 --> 0:34:34.960
<v Speaker 1>of the money, so he was able to give him

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:37.440
<v Speaker 1>a hometown discount. Now, to be fair, a lot of

0:34:37.520 --> 0:34:41.480
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks can't do that. But to your point, I think

0:34:41.520 --> 0:34:43.400
<v Speaker 1>when these guys want to go to other teams and

0:34:43.440 --> 0:34:45.759
<v Speaker 1>it costs them picks in order for them to restock

0:34:46.080 --> 0:34:48.520
<v Speaker 1>the kitchen cabinet, it is very very hard for you

0:34:48.520 --> 0:34:50.880
<v Speaker 1>to find meaningful success. Before I let you go, do

0:34:50.880 --> 0:34:52.680
<v Speaker 1>you want to play the JJ want game of where

0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:56.440
<v Speaker 1>you think he'll end up. Oh good question. I love

0:34:56.520 --> 0:34:59.120
<v Speaker 1>seeing how a lot of these teams have been lobbying

0:34:59.120 --> 0:35:01.440
<v Speaker 1>for them. I will tell you will absolutely not be Dallas,

0:35:01.440 --> 0:35:03.560
<v Speaker 1>So that's easy. Are some of the other ones that

0:35:03.600 --> 0:35:06.480
<v Speaker 1>you want to throw at me? Well, I'm going to

0:35:06.520 --> 0:35:09.400
<v Speaker 1>take Green Bay off because I don't think that takes

0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:12.480
<v Speaker 1>any real risk or any great insight to go. Boy,

0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:14.560
<v Speaker 1>you could go back to Wisconsin where he played his

0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:20.320
<v Speaker 1>college ball. I'm going to give you a Buffalo, Cleveland, Tennessee.

0:35:22.680 --> 0:35:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo and Tennessee the most intriguing to me. I really

0:35:26.520 --> 0:35:30.000
<v Speaker 1>think Buffalo would be. I just I became such a

0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:32.040
<v Speaker 1>fan of the Bills last year and what they're building there,

0:35:32.160 --> 0:35:35.480
<v Speaker 1>and it was a slow and patient process, but it

0:35:35.520 --> 0:35:38.520
<v Speaker 1>feels like it's got a really healthy, vibrant locker room.

0:35:38.840 --> 0:35:41.680
<v Speaker 1>But I also think if you've ever seen Mike Rabel

0:35:41.960 --> 0:35:44.600
<v Speaker 1>at a pro day, I saw him. It was caught

0:35:46.960 --> 0:35:49.680
<v Speaker 1>at Oliver down at Houston and needed a bull in

0:35:49.719 --> 0:35:52.240
<v Speaker 1>the ring with the guy as a defensive player. You've

0:35:52.280 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>got to love a guy like Mike Rabel. Wait, he

0:35:55.760 --> 0:35:59.160
<v Speaker 1>was They were hitting each other. Yes, Mike Vrabel was

0:36:00.000 --> 0:36:03.480
<v Speaker 1>one thousand percent participating in a bull ring exercise. It

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:06.200
<v Speaker 1>was amazing and he's a true player players coach. The

0:36:06.239 --> 0:36:08.600
<v Speaker 1>guys love Mike Vrabel. I mean, I don't know if

0:36:08.600 --> 0:36:10.440
<v Speaker 1>you've ever seen bus in the Boys and Taylor The

0:36:10.440 --> 0:36:12.719
<v Speaker 1>One and Wilcompton's podcast. He'll get in the bus with

0:36:12.719 --> 0:36:16.600
<v Speaker 1>the guys, and I could see Tennessee if I had

0:36:16.640 --> 0:36:18.800
<v Speaker 1>to pick right now. If Tennessee can figure out a

0:36:18.800 --> 0:36:21.359
<v Speaker 1>way to get it done, that would be an outstanding

0:36:21.520 --> 0:36:25.600
<v Speaker 1>destination form And kind of what an interesting send off

0:36:25.600 --> 0:36:28.279
<v Speaker 1>that you go to a team that used to be

0:36:28.400 --> 0:36:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the Houston Oilers in essence, so there's sort of a

0:36:32.080 --> 0:36:35.680
<v Speaker 1>pettiness there, so I think that would be intriguing. Jane,

0:38:32.239 --> 0:38:36.080
<v Speaker 1>your prime with M drive. I was watching the Clippers

0:38:36.120 --> 0:38:40.759
<v Speaker 1>in the Bucks yesterday and you know, just sort of

0:38:40.760 --> 0:38:43.359
<v Speaker 1>taking inventory of both of these teams because I don't

0:38:43.400 --> 0:38:45.719
<v Speaker 1>know where they are now as opposed to where they're

0:38:45.719 --> 0:38:49.880
<v Speaker 1>going to be and I don't know three months. But

0:38:49.960 --> 0:38:52.879
<v Speaker 1>I did watch Paul George, and Paul George is having

0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:55.479
<v Speaker 1>a great year, and rightfully so. He's an all starr,

0:38:56.080 --> 0:38:58.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, getting twenty three points a game, shooting fifty

0:38:58.600 --> 0:39:02.000
<v Speaker 1>one from the field, forty evan from three eighty nine

0:39:02.040 --> 0:39:06.919
<v Speaker 1>from the line. But he was asked about the disparity

0:39:07.680 --> 0:39:11.000
<v Speaker 1>between the Bucks and the Clippers yesterday shooting free throws,

0:39:11.840 --> 0:39:16.680
<v Speaker 1>and Paul George said, that's more of a league question. Well,

0:39:17.239 --> 0:39:20.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, part of the problem is they don't get

0:39:20.200 --> 0:39:25.880
<v Speaker 1>to the rim. They don't they shoot jumpers. The Lakers

0:39:26.080 --> 0:39:30.960
<v Speaker 1>are ninth in free throw attempts because they are ninth

0:39:31.080 --> 0:39:35.319
<v Speaker 1>in attempts within five feet of the rim. This might

0:39:35.360 --> 0:39:38.040
<v Speaker 1>be lost on a new generation. If you get to

0:39:38.080 --> 0:39:41.480
<v Speaker 1>the hoop, there's a chance you might get fouled, or

0:39:41.560 --> 0:39:46.200
<v Speaker 1>there's a better chance that you might get fouled. Like

0:39:46.280 --> 0:39:50.479
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers are one of the lowest shooting free throw

0:39:50.960 --> 0:39:53.839
<v Speaker 1>shooting teams as far as volume, because they don't get

0:39:53.880 --> 0:39:58.160
<v Speaker 1>to the hoop. The Lakers get to the hoop. You know,

0:39:58.200 --> 0:40:00.719
<v Speaker 1>we talk about the Greek free He gets to the

0:40:00.719 --> 0:40:04.960
<v Speaker 1>hoop the nets, but James Harden gets to the basket.

0:40:05.080 --> 0:40:08.120
<v Speaker 1>That's where you get free throws. It's not a league

0:40:08.160 --> 0:40:11.279
<v Speaker 1>issue here for Paul George. If I'm Paul George, I

0:40:11.280 --> 0:40:15.080
<v Speaker 1>don't have any more excuses the rest of the regular season, none.

0:40:15.640 --> 0:40:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Just playing. Because you're having a good regular season. People

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:25.600
<v Speaker 1>want to know if you're truly playoff pe Is that

0:40:25.719 --> 0:40:29.480
<v Speaker 1>a positive or a negative? Moniker? Yeah, Paul, here's the

0:40:29.520 --> 0:40:31.719
<v Speaker 1>staff for you. The Clippers, who attempt not a lot

0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:34.200
<v Speaker 1>of free throws. They're the best free throw shooting team

0:40:34.200 --> 0:40:37.279
<v Speaker 1>in the entire league. They're shooting eighty four percent as

0:40:37.280 --> 0:40:41.200
<v Speaker 1>a team. The worst shooting team in the league free throws.

0:40:41.480 --> 0:40:44.920
<v Speaker 1>You're a Sacramento Kings dance seventy one. Well, you make

0:40:44.960 --> 0:40:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the free throws, but you need to make more free

0:40:48.160 --> 0:40:50.720
<v Speaker 1>throws you. By the way, here's the noise. The Molaukee

0:40:50.760 --> 0:40:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Bucks are fourth from the bottom in free throw shooting

0:40:53.000 --> 0:40:58.399
<v Speaker 1>percentage of the team. That's terrible. Yeah, well, I think, guys,

0:40:58.560 --> 0:41:01.200
<v Speaker 1>if you take out Chris Middleton, I think Chris Middleton's

0:41:01.239 --> 0:41:05.839
<v Speaker 1>like a ninety percent free throw shooter. A Lonzo Ball

0:41:07.000 --> 0:41:11.640
<v Speaker 1>or LaMelo Ball in another great game, He's the real deal.

0:41:13.400 --> 0:41:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Bandwagons full, folks closed, the doors were set to depart.

0:41:18.880 --> 0:41:24.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm taking my balls and I'm going home. Well, I'll

0:41:24.080 --> 0:41:26.960
<v Speaker 1>take LaMelo. You can have all the other balls, don't.

0:41:27.040 --> 0:41:31.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't want them. LaMelo Ball's real deal. As Draymond

0:41:31.960 --> 0:41:36.959
<v Speaker 1>Green said while watching that game, he wasn't even playing

0:41:37.000 --> 0:41:41.360
<v Speaker 1>against LaMelo Ball. He said, he's he's a problem, and

0:41:41.480 --> 0:41:44.080
<v Speaker 1>he is. He gets to the hoop and I think,

0:41:44.120 --> 0:41:47.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, I can't give if I gave the Warriors

0:41:47.360 --> 0:41:50.280
<v Speaker 1>ad over because I thought, if I have him there,

0:41:51.120 --> 0:41:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I got a guy who will pass the ball. And

0:41:54.320 --> 0:41:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I thought with Clay Thompson, they were going to be

0:41:57.120 --> 0:41:59.880
<v Speaker 1>competing for a championship this year. I thought Steph Curry

0:42:00.200 --> 0:42:03.680
<v Speaker 1>be the MVP, they would compete for a championship. Clay

0:42:03.719 --> 0:42:07.920
<v Speaker 1>goes down. James Wiseman has been a nice rookie. But

0:42:08.320 --> 0:42:12.840
<v Speaker 1>LaMelo Balls, he's different. LaMelo is more for today's NBA,

0:42:13.080 --> 0:42:18.480
<v Speaker 1>and maybe Wiseman becomes that, you know, stretch four, shoot threes,

0:42:18.760 --> 0:42:21.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, block shots, get to the rim. He might

0:42:21.680 --> 0:42:25.840
<v Speaker 1>be a great player, or he might just be DeAndre Ayton.

0:42:26.200 --> 0:42:29.319
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's who ceiling, which is still good. But if

0:42:29.360 --> 0:42:33.040
<v Speaker 1>you your golden state, you don't have the second pick

0:42:33.120 --> 0:42:37.840
<v Speaker 1>overall very often, certainly not in Steph Curry's lifetime. And

0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I think LaMelo ball and maybe people were scared away

0:42:41.000 --> 0:42:44.200
<v Speaker 1>by his dad, and I certainly understand that. But the

0:42:44.280 --> 0:42:46.600
<v Speaker 1>first time I watched him was when he was a

0:42:46.640 --> 0:42:51.719
<v Speaker 1>freshman in high school. And that frame, you knew he

0:42:51.760 --> 0:42:54.120
<v Speaker 1>was going to get bigger. And I thought that he

0:42:54.400 --> 0:42:59.440
<v Speaker 1>was exceptional as a freshman, had great court awareness, and

0:42:59.480 --> 0:43:03.560
<v Speaker 1>then he no game awareness. He would shoot crazy shots.

0:43:03.920 --> 0:43:06.560
<v Speaker 1>And that's what really concerned me. I didn't know how

0:43:06.600 --> 0:43:09.080
<v Speaker 1>well he knew the game. I knew he could pass,

0:43:09.440 --> 0:43:11.319
<v Speaker 1>I knew he could be a matchup problem, and he

0:43:11.320 --> 0:43:13.879
<v Speaker 1>could get to the hoop. His shot is a little low,

0:43:14.040 --> 0:43:16.480
<v Speaker 1>but he's making it. He's shooting over forty percent from

0:43:16.520 --> 0:43:20.879
<v Speaker 1>three point range. He's been he's been a pleasant surprise. Yeah.

0:43:20.880 --> 0:43:24.879
<v Speaker 1>Point Lamello is leading all rookies in points rebounds and assists. Yeah,

0:43:25.280 --> 0:43:28.360
<v Speaker 1>when's the last time that happened? Magic, I don't know

0:43:28.360 --> 0:43:33.040
<v Speaker 1>if he got rebounds though at the check well, Luca

0:43:33.160 --> 0:43:36.600
<v Speaker 1>probably let all rookies in points, rebounds and assist. I'm

0:43:36.640 --> 0:43:39.719
<v Speaker 1>guessing all right. Coming up next hour, we'll check in

0:43:39.719 --> 0:43:41.840
<v Speaker 1>with the New Orleans things, aren't we sure? Drew Brees

0:43:41.960 --> 0:43:45.279
<v Speaker 1>is retiring? And then Shaquille O'Neill will join us. Coming up,
