1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast is all football, no narrative. 2 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,040 Speaker 1: Welcome back to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. 3 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: My name is Dan Jansas, and I am joined by 4 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: the room filled with heroes, Mark Sessler, Chris Westling and 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: Greg Girls. I thought, what's up boys? Here we are. 6 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: It's freezing in here, by the way, it's very cold. 7 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm talking like Oprah, it's cold. 8 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: Got you got you got a little. The free agency 9 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,959 Speaker 1: frenzy because free agency started. It's it's it's started. It's 10 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: been happening this past weekend. It's Monday afternoon. They were 11 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: taping this right now. And uh and this past weekend, Mark, 12 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: I knew you were in on Saturday Sunday. I came 13 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: in daylight Savings time no less, banged there and come in. 14 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: You know, it starts out okay Sunday, and then all 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the wave, it starts getting bigger and bigger, 16 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden it's crashing down, and and 17 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: Greg's online and we're hammering out post on Sunday. I 18 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: go home and then as it's crashing down, Dan goes home, 19 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: perfect timing Greg. Greg keeps haring away Mark jumps on 20 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: West somewhere by the sea during all this escaped, escaped, 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: But that was the big storyline I guess so far 22 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: free agency is that yes, it technically starts Tuesday at 23 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: one pm, but this this time where you're allowed to 24 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: talk to players and agents now has turned into a 25 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: monster that the NFL needs to somehow control or put down. 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: Which is uh, all these deals are getting done and 27 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: getting leaked to the press. So there's several several dozens 28 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: of players that we already know where they're headed. Well, 29 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: just since Saturday alone, I think the number was twelve 30 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: players from our one oh one have resigned with teams 31 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: so that those are legal, and then another eight or nine, ten, 32 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm losing track of the numbers have agreed to deals 33 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: or something close to an agreement, which that's a mockery 34 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: of the process. The NFL sends out amount today. They're 35 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: not happy with teams doing this. I don't know what 36 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: they can really do. It's it's one of those problems 37 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: that there's no good solution for. Like one of the 38 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: reasons open it up, let people do it. We only 39 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: had one or two people on because the last two years, 40 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: the only other years they've had this legal tampering scenario, 41 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: nothing happened. It was like a big sit around and wait, 42 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: and then nothing would happen this year, like it was 43 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: a cavalcade. How come they can't just make Tuesday one 44 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: pm that's when these players become Elgebow thirty and one 45 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: other teams. Why do we need to have this period? Well, 46 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: they added it because so many deals were getting done 47 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: anyways in the few days in between before it, and 48 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: so they tried to create something where Okay, you guys 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: can talk and we won't get made fun of for 50 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: all this tampering. But I think it doesn't matter. No 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: matter what what you do, you're gonna have to set 52 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: a deadline and teams are going to cheat and just 53 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 1: do it ahead of time. Isn't this all about cares anyways? 54 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: The unspoken agreement between NFL insiders that they'll wait a 55 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: little bit, and a couple of them broke the protocol, 56 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: that's part of it too. Although you know, guys like 57 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: Iron Maxwell, who again was talking to an NFL insider, 58 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: you know, he announced it publicly. Tory Smith put something 59 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: on his on his personal blog about where he's going, 60 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: you know, said they know who cares. I care because 61 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: people in our business, when you're writing up these posts, 62 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: you gotta hedge them a little bit. That can't be 63 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: definitive with it because nothing is official and anything could happen. 64 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: I guess technically, since this is all being done kind 65 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: of under the table in a way. Uh so I 66 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: just got about the table, stand on the table for change. 67 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,679 Speaker 1: Dan standing on the shoulder, trying to take it less seriously. 68 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: But in this cold room he's got you can undersize hooded. 69 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: You look like Robber in the park. That's what you 70 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: look like like I have. I have a much easier 71 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: time taking less seriously than Mark, who looks like, uh, 72 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: you have to wear his dad's sports We went downstairs 73 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: and it's I'm wearing West's sports coade because if I 74 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: wear my own, I have to go back into the 75 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: news room and delivered to that. Kind of giving this 76 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: to West, you take it back from kind of look 77 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: like you're on makeout point with the varsity letterman jacket 78 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: draped bo I wouldn't have guessed that they would be. 79 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: The West's arms would be so much longer than yours. 80 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not sure they are. I just have 81 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: like more bulk. Yes, tentmaker, that sounds like you're bragging 82 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: a little bit. I don't think we have got a 83 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: long run down here. Look at this. That Dan's guts 84 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: the most news we show. Oh my goodness, this is 85 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a show. Usually the structure of 86 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: our shows we do some news up top, and then 87 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: we get into some other stuff. We throw up in 88 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: some mirth. There's still gonna be some mirth, don't get 89 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: me wrong, but this is gonna be news heavy. We 90 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: have got twenty five different items I would say, I 91 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: would guess to get to uh So, I don't think 92 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: we should even waste any more time. And we got 93 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: t V behind the glass and I'll tell you what 94 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: t D number one first show without Dressler. I'm sure 95 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: you're dealing with that the best you can. I'm hanging 96 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: in the grass doing good. It's not also not. Also, 97 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: the best of my soccer team, Mens United is losing 98 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: Arsenal right now in Cup and that's pretty tough to do. 99 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter that you just said we weren't listening, uh Z. 100 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: Drills are no longer with us. However, TD, you do 101 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: have a great responsibility other than watching your soccer game 102 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: right now is with all this news, we need your 103 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: best news drop ever, and I didn't give your heads 104 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: up to pull out the best one. So really it's 105 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: just now fate will be confident to get to go. 106 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: All right, t D, let's do some news. What the 107 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: hell's going on about? Clearly did not even get a 108 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: drop done and just went out down board. That is 109 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: the prelude to the NFL free agency right now. It's 110 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: a lot going on, a lot of craziness. So my 111 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: man Lombardi is like, what the hell's going on about? 112 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: That's fair? Mark not impressed up, you know, we're not. 113 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: We're all looking at a sheet of paper that Dan 114 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: email to everyone with this enormous list of topics. Everyone's 115 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: in the two line tds in the CC, the carbon 116 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: copy line. I think that's that's telling and that's accurate. 117 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: Oh man, hey, hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey. 118 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: All right, let's start with the biggest news of the weekend. Uh. 119 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: And it is involving, as you might imagine, and Dominicans 120 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: sue UH, the Miami Dolphins, who when we did our 121 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: sandwich propositions, Greg and West both predicted he would land 122 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: with Miami. It looks like that's gonna happen. NFL media 123 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: inside of Ian Rappaport reports of the Dolphins are the 124 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: clear front runner for Sue and it will be a 125 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: deal that will eclipse ten million, makes Sue the highest 126 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: paid defensive player in the NFL. We're hearing an other 127 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: other news outlets this is a done deal. There's nothing 128 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: else to talk about. Uh So, barring something crazy, Sue 129 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: is gonna be a Miami Dolphin. I'll open it up 130 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: with the Boss, Greg. Your initial thoughts of the move, Well, 131 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: I don't like the fact that a lot of people 132 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: are making fun of the Dolphins for this and thinking 133 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: Sue is another Hayines, Albert Haynesworth's ridiculous or Stephen Ross 134 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 1: just spend crazy money. This is a Dominican Sue. It's different. 135 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: He's been one of the most consistent players in the NFL, 136 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: top five player at his position. He's in the middle 137 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: of his prime. If you're gonna spend a lot of money, 138 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: at least getting Dominican Sue, I'd much rather having Dominican 139 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: Sue than to Byron Maxwell's or to Mike Wallace's other 140 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: you know guys in free agency that get ten million dollars. 141 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: The Sue Haynesworth comparisons are as lazy as comparisons get. 142 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: I don't see just because they both stomped a player, 143 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: they and they both played defensive tackle. Maybe that was 144 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: Sue was one of the most self motivated players in 145 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: the NFL and Haynesworth was motivated purely by boats. And 146 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: this is a classic time of year to get to 147 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: have guys pumped up and be overpaid way more money 148 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: than they ever should. But with Sue, I don't mean 149 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: I think that this is one total game plan record 150 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: type guy that he can change what Miami can accomplish 151 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: on defense for years to come. With that said, it 152 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: does change the structure of salaries if you're into that 153 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: sort of thing. I mean, he's making four millions more 154 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: than Peyton Manning is this year. It's a it's a 155 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: new bar for defensive players. And it makes sense with 156 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: all the cap space and the money that's out there 157 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: now with the cap going higher. It's just different to 158 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: see a guy like Sue making Joe flaccover let me 159 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,559 Speaker 1: let me just throw a little cold water, I guess 160 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: on the Sioux signing in my opinion, and I'm not 161 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: saying it's a bad move by the Dolphins. As a 162 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: Jets man, I'm not thrilled that he's in my division. Now. 163 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: I have to see him twice twice a year, obviously, 164 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: But everybody goes nuts about age all the time. He's 165 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: twenty eight. He's not a spring chicken. He's not like 166 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: he's twenty five years old. He's he's a little older. 167 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: He's getting paid like a quarterback for three years, and 168 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: you know quarterbacks are expected to win. Now, I know 169 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: he's a defensive tackle, a whole different ball game. He 170 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: never won a playoff game in five years in Detroit. 171 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: So as big as a game plan record as he is, 172 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying he's not, it's not like it 173 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: turned Detroit into a deep playoff run team every year. 174 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: So is he worth this much money considering what we've 175 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: seen from him or from his team? He's not. And 176 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: I see the Dolphins going eight and eight or seven 177 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: and nine like they do every other year. This doesn't change. 178 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: It's terrible signing. I don't mind. I don't mind. That's 179 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 1: what's football. I mean, you could put Tom Brady on 180 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: the Jaguars and they're not necessarily going to make the playoffs. 181 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: It's just that's that was maybe a bad example, and 182 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: I don't think they would. We talk all the time 183 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,479 Speaker 1: about NFL teams realized, the good teams, the good franchises 184 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: realized you built through the draft. And it's always like, well, 185 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: who are these stupid teams that are always just wasting 186 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: in free agency? And people say the Redskins, But it's 187 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Every single year, the Dolphins do this. Two 188 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: years ago they spent by far the most amount. Last year, 189 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Albert was the second highest paid player in free agency. 190 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: This year, Sue is gonna be. But you put Sue 191 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: next to Cameron Wake I just signed and a few 192 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: days before you signed. So you cut Heartlin, and you 193 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: cut Gibbs, and you cut Courtland Finn again Danielle Ellerb, 194 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is what they do. But you're cutting 195 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: guys that made this big free agent splash a couple 196 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: of years ago in Miami area. But that's not how 197 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: you build teams. I I totally agree with all of that. 198 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: And yet at least they're investing in a great player. 199 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: And all those players that you just added up, they 200 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: pretty much added up to Sue. I mean, that's how 201 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: free agency works. I think you lose more by sign 202 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: I mean all these guys at six seven eight million dollars. 203 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: This is a guy, he's not Reggie White, but he's 204 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: one of the best defensive players it's ever reached free agency. 205 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: So that's why with the the cap going up year 206 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: after year after year, I don't mind. The dolphinse was 207 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 1: they always have a really good defensive line and the 208 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: rest of the roster is mediocre. They're still gonna be 209 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: the same way. There will be more pressure than ever 210 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: on Ryan Tannehill this year. Obviously Joe phil will. You know, 211 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: he's coaching for his job, but they need to be 212 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: a playoff this this year, playoff team, or it's going 213 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: to be viewed as a really you don't think there's 214 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: any chance, not any chance. But I don't I one 215 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: thing I agree with with West in general, and I 216 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: know we have twenties seven more topics together, but it's 217 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: like Dan, like you said before, it's it's it's a 218 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: defensive tackle. And I think any defensive coach could sit 219 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 1: down in three hours, four or five tell you how 220 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: important he is. And the Lions might have to change 221 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,079 Speaker 1: their entire scheme now because he's not there. They could 222 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: they could go to a three four potentially, That's how 223 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: much of a difference he makes. But is he gonna 224 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: generate three separate additional wins for the Dolphins. Not when 225 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: you don't have that quarterback or that everything else. I mean, 226 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: they've been right on the precipice of sneaking in the 227 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: playoffs these last couple of years. So one of these years, 228 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: when they're eight and six going into the last two weeks, 229 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: maybe this is the move that gets the over the top. 230 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: They get a wild card. They maybe even push the 231 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: page Mike grow up to be the Cincinnati Bengals. What 232 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: a tough division it's gonna be. To have an offensive line. 233 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: You gotta play the Bills four times a year. We'll 234 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: talk about them in a sect. Bringing Jerry Hughes back. 235 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 1: You gotta play the Jets with Mohammed Wilkerson and a 236 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: great looking defensive line. And then now you have to 237 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 1: play Wake and Soon next to each other with little 238 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: Randy Starks throwing. The Patriots are the worst one of 239 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: the group, and they're not that bad. Speaking of the Patriots, 240 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: big news out of New England on Monday, NFL Media 241 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: Insider Ian Rappaport. Going forward, he will be known as 242 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: rap Sheet on the show. UH this episode anyway, the 243 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: Pats are not picking up rivers twenty million dollar option 244 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: for UH. That according to a source informed of the 245 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: team's thinking, that will mean that Reeves will become a 246 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: free agent, which will make him uh fair game for 247 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: any team. But what we keep hearing is that the 248 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: Pats will still be in the mix for this. But 249 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: it it seems like it's going to be another classic 250 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: Jets Patriots arms race situation with those two teams and 251 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: then right now no other team materializing, but something could 252 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: go down in the future, but Jets Pats it's looking 253 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: like well. And rap Sheet mentioned that New England right 254 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: now is still trying to sign them before four pm 255 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: Eastern on Tuesday. That that is that's it's not like 256 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: they're rejecting the concept of that and they don't want 257 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: to haven't officially not picked up the option, so legally 258 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: the Jets can't be negotiating yet. But I'm sure the 259 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Pots window here where they can exclusively negotiate with him 260 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: right because he's still it's basically they haven't officially done anything. Well, 261 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: the Jets tampered like five times when they weren't allowed 262 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: to say, how that you're an illegal tampering. Let's copy 263 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: naive here. Uh throou reeves doesn't make uh any decisions 264 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: without knowing exactly what he can make elsewhere. Whether it's 265 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: legal to find that out or not. That's just how 266 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: it works. And I thought, Dan, you you put it 267 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: well downstairs. This even made it into uh the old 268 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: Darrell Rivas landing spots which only has two teams and 269 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: then the field. You said, this is kind of like 270 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: this is the contract that Darrell Rivas has always wanted, 271 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: Like this is the one that he's gonna get this year. 272 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: He never got it with the Jets and his two 273 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: uh dances with them, one was a band aid. Uh. 274 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: Then then the second time came around and forced the 275 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: trade to the Bucks, who then didn't give him a 276 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: really deeply guaranteed contracts. He was coming off the knee injury. 277 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: He gets cut, he ends up with the Pats on 278 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: a one year deal essentially, but now he's gonna get paid. 279 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he's probably gonna get He's not gonna get 280 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: some money, obviously, but he's gonna get probably three guaranteed 281 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: years a ton of dough. This is the contract he's 282 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: been trying to get all this time, and it might 283 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: even come from the Jets. Was his highly ironic And 284 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: Dan you mentioned downstairs the idea that maybe there's an 285 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: interest in Rivers's mind and heart to go back to 286 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: New York to become to put a cap on one 287 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: is the greatest Jets career of any player for that 288 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: team that they've ever had. But what if, if if 289 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots and the Jets offer something very 290 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: very comparable, where do you think he would want to be, 291 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: all things being equal, money wise, I don't know. That's 292 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: he's impossible to judge because he's motivated by money. I 293 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: would think he would stay in New England if the 294 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: money was the same, unless there's something that we don't know. 295 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: But when I what I was saying that downstairs about uh, 296 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: I was thinking more from the Jets fans, from the 297 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: Jets ownership, that they they want Revas to be a Jet, 298 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: even though now he has a ring with the pass. Yes, 299 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: that's my point. I don't think Rivas has the same 300 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: Jets thing Laura touch to him. I think he wants 301 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: to be I think he'd stay in New England. If 302 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: it was equal, it fails the common sense test for 303 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: both Jets and the and Revs. They didn't want him 304 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago when they were supposed to 305 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: be contenders. Now they're rebuilding and they want Revas, but 306 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: they they're gonna overpay for him and Vis. Why would 307 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: you leave the Super Bowl champions to go to the Jets. 308 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: I don't get there. I think he he would like 309 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: to go back to New York. And here's why, because 310 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: he's entertaining it. I mean, Ian has reported money to 311 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: bring them. Maybe maybe that's how he's trying to get 312 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: more money. But I think he'd be all about it. 313 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: And it's not that the Jets didn't want him back. 314 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: For instance, last year, Rex Ryan and Woody Johnson did 315 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: and they felt like it was a missed opportunity. They 316 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: didn't get him back years ago when they traded him. 317 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: It was driven by the owner. But it was driven 318 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: not over whether they wanted him. It was things got 319 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: really ugly financially. It was beyond just him, how they 320 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: viewed him as a player. Yeah, a lot went into that, 321 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: and I think it's a different spot now when ownership 322 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: gets involved. That's when you start seeing some crazy contracts 323 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: and that's when it happens. And that's why Revas has 324 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: to be thrilled, because not it's not only ownership getting 325 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: involved on the Jet side. Belichick is practically ownership on 326 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: the Patriots side. And you know he does not want 327 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: to lose Revas to the Jets, of all teams, and 328 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: I feel like that would make the Patriots spend a 329 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: little extra dough. He's in a great spot. It's not Belichick. Yeah. Yeah, 330 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: to me, like the Jets aren't one high end quarterback 331 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: away from being a contender. I don't. I just don't 332 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: think it makes sense for them. Yeah. I mean the 333 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: way I look at it with the NFL is that 334 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: the Jets could, to me, like any team, if you 335 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: hit on the draft and you do well in free agency, 336 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: they could be tenant six next year and be playing 337 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. And then if you're in the playoffs, 338 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: you're in the dance. And then you have Revs on 339 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: the team, you might not be seen as a Super 340 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: Bowl contender. But that makes sense that now we have Revis, 341 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: we're in the playoffs. That's why the NFL is well, right, 342 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: I've did this month ago come on, well, and you're 343 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: and you and you, and it's fair you have an 344 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: emotional attachment to the whole idea of Revis as well. 345 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: But if we're gonna look at the Dolphins and say 346 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: you've added Sue but you're no different to us, then 347 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: with all the holes that the Jets have, I'm not 348 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: sure what adding Revs does to suddenly turn them into 349 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: a playoff team either. I mean, that might might be true, 350 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: but really they don't have a quarterback. The biggest hole 351 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: is that one of the biggest holes that cornerback. Though 352 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: it's not like he's not fitting. It doesn't feel the need. 353 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: He it feels a need. He fits what Todd Bowles 354 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: does with physical kind of man corners. I mean, I 355 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: don't know. If I was a Jets fan, i'd be 356 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: I'd be loving this. I'm floating with it, just over 357 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: the possibility. We move on. Let's stick with the a 358 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: f c S and the Patriots. Uh so Revus, who 359 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: knows if he ends up coming back to the Patriots. 360 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: But one guy we know is staying in New England, 361 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: Devin mccordy. Uh he will rap sheet reports that he is. 362 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: Uh he has signed a five year forty seven and 363 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: a half million dollar contract according to two sources. Uh, 364 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. He was He had moved 365 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 1: all the way up through guys coming or going on 366 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: our one on one list. He was the number two 367 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: option at the time of his signing. So Devin mccordy. 368 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: We wondered if if the Patriots valued mccordy over Revas. 369 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: I still don't know if this tells you necessarily, but 370 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: it also tells you how much they adore Devin mccordy 371 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: in that secondary It shows you they value him over 372 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 1: Asante Samuel back in two thousand six or whatever year 373 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: that was, or Richard Seymour when he was having his 374 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: problem they i mean his contract issues. They stepped up 375 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: to give mccordy Jari's bird type contract. I mean there 376 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: was a report from ESPN Boston how mccordy got on 377 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: the phone with Belichick to basically say, thanks for a 378 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: great five years, I'm gonna go with this other team. 379 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: And then it was at that point that Belichick and 380 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: the Patriots stepped up their offer significantly, apparently not quite 381 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: to the level that it was either the Eagles or 382 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 1: the Giants had, but close enough and he got it done, 383 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: and there aren't many players that they've ever done it. 384 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: I kind of I kinta think now mccordy's stays and 385 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: Rivas does not. But we'll see. Oh wow, Really, I 386 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,719 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I'm Brandon Browner and I think 387 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna be cutting Brandon Browner either way. They've They've 388 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: allowed him to go look for a trade, so I'm 389 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: fine with that. It doesn't feel like a Patriot's business 390 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: to be keeping them both. I don't know. It feels 391 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: like in the in the past, they still trying to 392 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: talk yourself and I'm not listen, I'm not saying whether 393 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: that has anything to do with the Jets, but I 394 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: don't know. We haven't we haven't seen the Patriots go 395 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: all out to retain guys in the past. Now, well, 396 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: you're exactly right. New England is not a team that 397 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: responds off of pure emotion. They have learned how to 398 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: team build for more than a decade. The Jets in 399 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: this situation do feel emotional to me? All right, we 400 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: got it, Mark, we got it. You're on the other 401 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 1: side of the fence. Listen, I know it's gonna be 402 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: the worst day of your life if the signs with 403 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: the Jet. No, it's not. I just think that it's 404 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: it seems to me. It seems to me like an 405 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: owner dipped scenario that isn't really like, is this what 406 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: the GM want? The GM definitely doesn't want drell rive 407 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: us in the secondary. That's the point I think. I 408 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: think the Patriots, what what if Bill Belichick has it? 409 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: And he said this is probably ridiculous, But wouldn't you 410 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: if if you were Bill Belichick, wouldn't you be thinking, 411 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: I've got Tom Brady for another year or two, I'm 412 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: only gonna be around for X amount of years, just 413 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: like go for it, go for it finally and that 414 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: and that's the final, not finally. But you know, they've 415 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 1: always they've been a team that thinks ahead and not 416 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: in the short term, not spending a lot of money. 417 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,160 Speaker 1: But if ever they were going to it's an out 418 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 1: well and two years in a row the salary cap 419 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: raises by ten million. If not now, I mean, when 420 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,880 Speaker 1: go get rev Us you're a contender, that'd be interesting. Um, 421 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 1: not toet too off topic, we got a lot more 422 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: to get to. But if you're Bill Belichick, Yeah, why 423 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: would you even stick around in the NFL. Once Brady retires, 424 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: just get out at that point and just go on 425 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: for whatever the time has left, probably to prove you 426 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: can win without him exactly. He did that with Matt Castle. 427 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: That's enough. And so one year they didn't make the 428 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: playoffs games. All right, here we go. Let's move on 429 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: to another a f C East team. We're kind of 430 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: gonna go division by division because there's so many great stories, 431 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: or just keep moving on. Lashawn McCoy after his big 432 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: blockbuster trade from the Eagles to the Bills, there were 433 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: some whispers out there that that there's the Bills were 434 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: gonna have some problems, the problems because McCoy maybe wasn't 435 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: happy with about going up to Orchard Parkwell not anymore. 436 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: Rap Sheet reports that he gets a five year deal 437 00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 1: worth fifty excume me forty million, with twenty six and 438 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 1: a half million guaranteed, including sixteen million in his first year. 439 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: So yes, he's probably an outlier barring Adrian Peterson or 440 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: de Marco Murray getting a massive deal. But that is 441 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: some straight cash homie for running back in an era 442 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: where running backs don't get paid. That's some crazy scratch 443 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: sixteen million for a guy who Greg stat from our 444 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: stats department had the fewest yards per touch of any 445 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: running back with two fifty touches last year. Doesn't look 446 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: like he's about to be to hit another prime in 447 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: his career. I don't know. I would. It seems like 448 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: a crazy amount of money to pay a running back. 449 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: What's the best case scenario that he's he's awesome for 450 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: another year, maybe maybe two, he kind of goes back 451 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,719 Speaker 1: to the two thousand and thirteen level and then he's 452 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: in the climb. But I guess maybe seven years old 453 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: right now, he could have three four happen two years 454 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: younger than Mariece Jones. Drew has a Frank Gore career. 455 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: That would be the five years younger than you know, 456 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: Frank Gore four or five things with running Actually just 457 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: never know, right, it's a crazy if they paid a 458 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: buffalo tax, that's what it was. That was the word 459 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: buffalo and we players don't want to come here and 460 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna just give you extra money for that. It's 461 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: a little crazy. I mean, that is what I've been 462 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: to Western New York, by the way, lovely, lovely. I like, 463 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: I wouldn't, but I see what you're saying. I've actually 464 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: never been to. It seemed a little it seems a 465 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: little desperate. With that said, he gets twenty six million guaranteed. 466 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if that's just basically his first 467 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 1: three years. So he's guaranteed there the next three years, 468 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: and no other team would have done that. Though it 469 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: is a little crazy. They're another another deal for the Bills. 470 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: Jerry Hughes agreed that they spent a lot of money. 471 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: Jerry Hughes agrees to a five year deal worth at 472 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: least forty five million according to rap Sheet, twenty million 473 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: and guarantees. Uh, Chris Westling, your thoughts on Jerry Hughes. 474 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: This is a signing that they needed to make. I 475 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: don't think they needed to make it. I think that 476 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: Mario Williams is one of the best pass on fire. 477 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: This is a good deal. This is like I like 478 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: Greg Juice the word buffalo tax. You're us isn't worth 479 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: twenty million guaranteed, but he's gonna get I'd rather have 480 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Graham for fourteen million. This is a good Rex 481 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: Ryan type of player to build your defense around. Though, 482 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't you say I like I like to build my 483 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: defense around us. But I get well, no, but he's 484 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: a good piece for we'll be able to unleash. When 485 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 1: we're evaluating the money, we kind of gotta wait to 486 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: see the deal, the details. I mean, Hughes was a 487 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: great part of a defensive line that's I said all 488 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: year was the best in the League's I like keeping 489 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: your strength, like building strength on strength, and that's gonna 490 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: be a scary group for a while. It's less than 491 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: Everson Griffin made. It's not that great. I give the 492 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: rest of the a f c's credit. This is the 493 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: Patriots effect of wanting to finally have someone else win 494 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: that division. These teams are throwing some dough around this offseason. 495 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: But and to your point, as long as we won't 496 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: be able to throw the ball, I was gonna say 497 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 1: the Bills and the Jets until they figure out the 498 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: quarterback problems and then we figure out what what Ryan 499 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: Tannehill is still waiting on that. Greg's boy, Well, he's 500 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: coming off a very nice year. They're letting him run 501 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: the personnel department there too. By the way, I tweeted 502 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: yesterday and I stand by it. After this six moved 503 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: Mike Tannebaum, former Jets GM. Now. I don't know what 504 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: the Hicksters deal is in Miami, but it seems like 505 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 1: potentially Mr t is pulling the strings. You know, you 506 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: don't know where the ride's going when Tannebaum's running the show. 507 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: But it's fun. It's an adventure when he's there. I mean, 508 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: far have you got Farve? He got Tebow? Santonio Holmes 509 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: pluck Plexico out of prison, now he gets sued is 510 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: operating as a short order cook in the Dolphin's cafeteria. 511 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: The last I heard of the I like that Tebow adventure, 512 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: did you know? I don't like it, but it's it's 513 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: you know, it's exciting in the moment, and then sometimes 514 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't work, and then it brought your whole franchise 515 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: down for a couple of years. Other than that, all right, 516 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 1: Speaking of the Jets, one more note or a former 517 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: Jet Chris Johnson. This was bomber news that came out 518 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: Sunday morning. UH was out in Orlando after four AM 519 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: and UH involved in a drive by a shooting in 520 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: which he gets shot in the shoulder. Another man at 521 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: the driver gets shot to death. Another guy gets shot 522 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: in the car. So he was in the hospital Johnson 523 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: with the injury released, I believe Monday is it doesn't 524 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: need any surgeries. The recovery is a positive outlook. It 525 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 1: seems like he's gonna be okay. Uh so, free agent 526 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: running back involved in some and I don't know what's 527 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,479 Speaker 1: going on with Chris Johnson because last month they got 528 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: arrested in Orlando for having two cars and the two 529 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: guns in his car and now he's involved in a 530 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: in a a shooting incident, uh form an orderly Q 531 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 1: interested teams And I was gonna say, I'm you know, 532 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: to bring him into free agency is maybe a little weird. 533 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:33,959 Speaker 1: But at the same time for a guy that's been 534 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 1: in decline on the field and you know, going down 535 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: this road off the field, I don't know, it's not 536 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: gonna be very hot market, I would imagine for Chris Johnson. Yeah, 537 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: you saw that. I saw this news and you know, 538 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: immediately there it was reported he's okay, the driver passed away. 539 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: But you know, one of the other things I thought, 540 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 1: because of what we do, is yeah, this is this 541 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: is probably or possibly the end of his career too. 542 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: I mean I kind of expected at the end of 543 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: his here anyways, this right, I mean it seems like 544 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: that could have come without this event one way or 545 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: the other. Next topic, Yeah, I think it's a good 546 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: point to move on. Let's move on now to the 547 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: ANFC South uh and we'll start with the Houston Texans. 548 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: A lot cooking with them. Andre Johnson, first of all, 549 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: officially released, we're all over this. I think we had 550 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 1: three posts up in a matter of an hour on 551 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: the around the NFL sparks. Should people if you're if 552 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: you're listening to our podcast, and we love you as listeners, 553 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: but if you really want to be plugged in, you 554 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: gotta be reading the content on the on the site. 555 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: Because none of us are considered great orders yet with 556 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: the pen very mighty Pulzer winners, all of us don't 557 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: look that up. But we all do all this shut 558 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: up TD, we do all this writing on it. And 559 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: we talked about the Houston Texans and Andre Johnson and West. 560 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: I think you wrote the landing spots, potential landing spots. 561 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: You did not who wrote that that? I write the 562 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: potential landing spots. Doing a lot of writing lately. Let's 563 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: and may God have mercy on your soul. You did 564 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: a good job with it. I do have some feelings 565 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: on this. Okay, Well, whatever I wrote, which I assume 566 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: was a home run, yep, there it is. Uh you 567 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: wrote it last week in fairness. Yeah, so there are 568 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: there are teams that would make sense. I have Seattle, 569 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 1: New England, Indy, San Diego, Denver, all all these places 570 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: could use Andre Johnson, even in some level of decline. 571 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: But West, I'll throw it to you now after you, 572 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: uh you know, read my piece closely. Imagine I want 573 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: to stomp all over your piece. But I see that 574 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: I see him connected to Seattle the most, and I 575 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: think it's a porfeit. I think what they need and 576 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: if you watch their games from last year in my notes, 577 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: every single game in my notes, their number one weaknesses. 578 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: They need a red zone receiver, a big body guy 579 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: to fight for the ball. They don't have that. Andre 580 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: Johnson's strength has never been red zone guy. He's a 581 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: big bodied guy, never had ten touchdowns, and he's never 582 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: been like a big leaper. He doesn't get that physical 583 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: in the end zone. It's to me that's not what 584 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 1: the Seahawks. And I think he fits well with the 585 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: Colts as the replacement for Reggie Wayne Pete Carroll does 586 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: have some history of going after these veterans to give 587 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: him a shot. He did that with t O, there 588 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: were others down in the past, I mean, and they 589 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 1: didn't play out. Yeah, it's not a red zone threat. 590 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: But what if they found someone like that in the 591 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: draft and put Andre Johnson into the mix. I think 592 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: part of the motivation with Andre Johnson, if if it's 593 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: actually true versus just he wants more money, is he 594 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: wants to go to a contender, right, we hear that. 595 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if we're creating that on our own, 596 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: but it's like Seattle is an absolute hotspot. You know 597 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: what you know what his motivation should be is the 598 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 1: fact you just compared him to Seattle era Terrell Owens. 599 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's an insult. Well, I wasn't aiming to 600 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: insult him, just to say that Pete Carroll has a 601 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: history of bringing those old I think. I think the 602 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: assumption that's been made by a lot of people and 603 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: including myself, that he wants to sign with the contender 604 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: is based on some of his belly in the last 605 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: couple of years with with Houston was because he felt 606 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: like they weren't going in the right direction as a franchise, 607 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: But I don't think he's come out and said anything. 608 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: We're just assuming. What did you want to go to 609 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: a good team? Why would you go to a crappy 610 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: team at this stage in your career should feel too. 611 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: I like your two options. That's gonna be really good 612 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: this year, West mark my words, wait till you do 613 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 1: sandwich propositions in August. You gotta got me all. I'm 614 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: trying to get you round up. You already got me. 615 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: I like that you're so bit I mean, it didn't 616 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: take you long to flush that Jet season off your mind. 617 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: You're you're ready's ready to go. I admire that. I 618 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: like your pick of the Broncos. By the way, I 619 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: don't even remember writing. I could see that. I could 620 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: see the Broncos. Well, you don't have a whole career 621 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: with Gary Kubiak, right, and he was with Kubiak. I 622 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: could see the Broncos still investing wide receiver. Absolutely. Also 623 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: in Houston News, Thad Lewis was just released, so just 624 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: you know, FAD's on the market, so everyone knows. Also, 625 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett uh Is is going to be back with 626 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: the Texans, as we all expected after the com bind 627 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: where the Houston brain trust was just like falling over 628 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: themselves over Ryan Mallett, the greatest quarterback of all time. 629 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: He signed a two year deal worth seven millions to 630 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: stay in Houston. And then you also Brian Hoyer. We're 631 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: getting a report from Albert Brier that, uh, the great 632 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer will also be signing with Houston. Uh so 633 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: it seems like they are moving forward. Ryan Mallett, little 634 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: Cleveland Springsteen in the mix too is a backup and 635 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: they're moving forward. Your thoughts, it's like a Mike Lombardi 636 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: fever dream, because Lombardi spent years in Cleveland or months 637 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: whatever trying to get Ryan Mallett into the mix, and 638 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: he went and got Brian Hoyer. That's the only reason 639 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: they ever had Brian Hoyer, and now they're both in Houston. 640 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: I still don't I'm not convinced they Hoyer could still 641 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: end up elsewhere. But our boy Brier is reporting that 642 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: it's done well. It sounds like the Jets right down 643 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: to the end. The New York has showed some interesting 644 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: You can't give up on Brian Hoyer. I like the 645 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 1: first edition of this competition when they were competing for 646 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: a backup job in New England now they're competing for. Yeah, 647 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: there is something distaste if you were a Texans fan 648 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: about this, that you're getting rid of Andre Johnson on 649 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: the same day that you're signing Hoyer and Mallett to 650 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: compete for a starting quarterback down It's like, I don't 651 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: know about renewing the season tickets, honey, you know that one? Well, 652 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: what's out there? I mean, I know, But at the saying, 653 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: imagine imagine if the Browns did this, if they just 654 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: you know, imagine if they just cut like the best 655 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: guy that they've had in the last fifteen years and 656 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: the same day they're signing a Hoyer and it's well, 657 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: how about do that and just go Josh McCown. Disastrous. 658 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, there's all this oversold business 659 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: about o'hoyer in Mallet, no Bill O'Brien system, and that's 660 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: gonna make a tangent. It's still Hoyer and Mallet I 661 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: agreed to, right, and it's still Bill Bill O'Brien system. 662 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: I'm not going to give him the Chip Kelly or 663 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: anything else that Bill O'Brien setting the entire world on fire. 664 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: Are we ready to talk about the Eagles for like 665 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: twenty minutes straight, love it or love it or hated. 666 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: That's what we gotta do because there's so much stuff 667 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: going on with the genius Chip Kelly, who is infallible 668 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 1: we know, and every movie he's gonna do here is 669 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: gonna work out perfectly. Let's start going down the line, 670 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: starting with Jeremy Macklin, who I personally, I thought and 671 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: wrote several posts, uh in the last month or so, 672 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: and it always seemed to me like he was gonna 673 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: end up staying with the Eagles. But it's not gonna 674 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: happen that way. Raps Here reports that Macklin plans to 675 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: head to the Chiefs on Tuesday to sign with Kansas City, 676 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: according to a source of formed of his thinking, informed 677 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: of his thinking. Uh, this comes after talks between Macklin 678 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: and the Eagles broke down. Uh, So we'll start there. 679 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklin leaving the Eagles for the Chiefs and West. 680 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: You're shaking your head. Well, I you wrote all these 681 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: articles saying it made sense to stay in Philly. I 682 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: wrote a bunch of articles saying he would end up 683 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: in Kansas City. But when it came time for sandwiches 684 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: to be involved. I didn't throw it out there, so 685 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 1: you should have had me on the host took a 686 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: shot at Dan, but then admitted you didn't take advantage 687 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: of it. I wrote it a few times. I put 688 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: it in our on our online content, but was not. 689 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I got West can disagree with like 690 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: my football takes. He is the scientists, but he just 691 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: can't laugh me for for the Eagles fan hot take, 692 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to our old producer k Rich not 693 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: in the studio with us, but I will quote her 694 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: Twitter account. I period cannot period stand period Chip Kelly 695 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: period hashtag I want my Eagles back. It's funny because 696 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: emoticon angry alien and then that's true and on Amazon. 697 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: Uh he I mean she's upset. There's a lot of 698 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: Eagles fans upset with the people leaving. I think she's 699 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: feeling some ambivalent hope for the team. And I think 700 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: if you go to to Philadelphia, I mean that's a 701 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: that's a first first ambivalent hope pop culture. I just 702 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: meshed it right in there. We can stop the entire 703 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: show to you know, judge it and find out if 704 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: you like that or not. Let's keep going. But listen, 705 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: if you're an Eagles fan, they're very I think they 706 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: have a right to be angry. I mean, because yes, 707 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: we have to wait and see what happens with Chip 708 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: Kelly's multiple decisions here. That stripped a lot of starts 709 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: and star power under the roster. But what are you 710 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: filling these holes with? That's the question. I mean, Maclin 711 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: for months and months it sound like he was gonna 712 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: come back. Your wide receiver position isn't shambles right now. 713 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: Still you still got your boy, though big country music 714 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 1: fan likes to get to as many concerts as possible. 715 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 1: Riley Cooper, I like him as a third option in 716 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: Matthews and Josh. I think you can call Chip Kelly 717 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 1: egotistical or whatever for some of the decisions, or even gutsy, 718 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: But I don't think failing to pay Jeremy Macklin more 719 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: than ten million dollars a year is in any way 720 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: gutsy or like egotistical. It's a little crazy to pay 721 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklin that much money. That's what we're expecting it 722 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: to be, more than Randall Comy. What we've seen from 723 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly, he's unwilling to overpay for offensive players to 724 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: Sean Jackson, Jeremy Macklin, Lashawn McCoy, but he's willing to 725 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: overpay for defensive backs because that's what he thinks he 726 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 1: can develop. Offensive players don't fit his sister well. In 727 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: Macklin's case, he has proof. Jeremy Macklin had this was 728 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: his sixth season in the NFL. He never had a 729 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: thousand yards before Chip Kelly, right, and he's not a 730 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: real number one receiver, right, So we're talking about someone 731 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: who's getting paid to be It's just that you've Lashaw 732 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: McCoy has gone to Sean jacks and Macklin, and it's 733 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: the accumulation of all of this talent leaving not whether 734 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: we can sit around and say, oh, yes, it wasn't 735 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 1: right to pay Macklin X amount of dollars and that, 736 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: and that's logical, But to the to the Eagles fan, 737 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: you're number one, thousands of jerseys across the city are 738 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: now rendered utterly meaningless. And it's players that are playing 739 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: in other cities, which again doesn't matter to us, but 740 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 1: for the people in that city, you're you're wondering what 741 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:36,760 Speaker 1: it is that kind of message for the Macklin Jersey 742 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: owners think about Jersey do better. At no point, At 743 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: no point was Maclin ever a good idea to buy 744 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: that Jersey West. There was always better option. You um 745 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: said that you thought on some level, Macklin's a kind 746 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: of a scheme player going and reuniting with Andy Reid. 747 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 1: Will he be good in Kansas City? Will be good? 748 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: But he's being paid to be great, and he's when 749 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: I say a number one receivers the chains stays healthy 750 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: and it's a threat in the red zone. He doesn't 751 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: stay healthy, and he's not a great red zone threat. 752 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: He's not that physical, he's not that fast. He doesn't 753 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 1: box out in the end zone. He's pretty fast. He's 754 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: I feel like he got something after he came back 755 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 1: from a c L. Serge was even faster. I'm gonna 756 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm actually volunteering to have my a c LS replaced 757 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: later this year, just because these guys come back so well. 758 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: Dwayne Bowl also we assume now history in Kansas City. 759 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 1: If that happens, what kind of market do you think 760 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: he has. It's a long way away from fifteen touchdowns. 761 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,360 Speaker 1: Similar to the same market, the same market that Michael 762 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:37,720 Speaker 1: Crabtree has formally good wide receivers who don't make plays anymore, 763 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: and there's a locker room, you know, potential nightmare. Maybe 764 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm crazy. I still think that Crabtree has a chance 765 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: to have a nice long stretch of his career where 766 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: he's a difference maker. I don't think. But outside of 767 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: an eight game stretch to close out the two thousand 768 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: twelve season, what has he ever done? Alright, We've got 769 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: a lot of news to I mean, he's only had 770 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: one stretch in his career that's been a yeah, great 771 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 1: hole that with the Sanders as his agent or whatever. Alright, 772 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 1: more Eagles news, this time a player coming to the Eagles. 773 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: Looks like Frank Gore is going to be the new 774 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: number one running back in Philadelphia. Frank Gore, that is 775 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 1: Greg's boy. The inconvenient truth, uh Bert Breer reporting that 776 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: uh contract which again nothing is official, because this is 777 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: all supposed to be, you know, just the talking period, 778 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: but a contract that will guarantee the thirty one year 779 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: old running back seven and a half million over the 780 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 1: first two years. It's a three year deal overall. Uh. 781 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,919 Speaker 1: So I'll start with you, Greg, because it is your boy, 782 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,959 Speaker 1: Frank Gore, Number one, are you surprised he didn't last 783 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 1: his entire career in San Francisco? And number two, will 784 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: you still have something in the tank for this Eagles team? Well, 785 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised about the forty nine because, as West 786 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: wrote on the page today, Yeah, the forty niners are 787 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: saying goodbye to every time that's ever made a Pro 788 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: Bowl or done anything for them, all their best players. Ever, 789 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: they don't want them on the team anymore. What a 790 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: it for Frank Gore? I mean, if you wanted Frank 791 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: Gore to make the Hall of Fame someday, like I do, 792 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: you could not have picked a better team than the 793 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 1: Eagles to rack up some stats at the end of 794 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,359 Speaker 1: his career. I love it well and for all of 795 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: the we heard when they traded McCoy, that was McCoy 796 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: ran east to west and danced too much. If you 797 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: want a north south runner with who's patient and hits 798 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: the whole, Frank Gore's the definition of that. I mean, 799 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: he's averaged more yards per year since he was twenty seven, 800 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: then I think since he was twenty eight, since for 801 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: the five years before that, so he hasn't really shown 802 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: much aging. And I don't think he's gonna get the 803 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: ball three under times. You know they're gonna give it 804 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: Darren Sprowls. Theyll probably draft someone too, you know they'll 805 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 1: they'll split it up. Chip Kelly has found a little 806 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: portion of the market here that he can exploit. Older 807 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: running backs Darren Sprowls and Frank Gore both undervalued and 808 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna be a good tag team this year, both 809 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: thirty two years old, so that you don't see that 810 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:57,919 Speaker 1: too often. Thunder will definitely draft someone. Yeah. Uh more 811 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: Philly News. Mark Sanchez has surveyed the market and said 812 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: this sucks. I'm not going to Tennessee. Are you kidding me? 813 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: And he re ups with the Philadelphia Philly Oh, that's 814 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: freaking news. Mark Sanchez now a baseball player. Uh, that 815 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: was stupid. Uh. He's with the Eagles. It's a two 816 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 1: year deal, five and a half million guaranteed, could make 817 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: up to sixteen million if he hits all those incentives 818 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: according to rap Sheet, So pretty good backup money for 819 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,319 Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez. And but the only thing I'm curious about 820 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: with him is that this is a to me still 821 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: a position of unrest in Philadelphia because you have folds 822 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 1: in the mix. You have Sanchez now under contract again, 823 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: and you have Marcus Mariota hanging over everything. Mark Sessler. Well, 824 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: NFL Media's Gil Brandt says he knows who Philadelphia is 825 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 1: going to take in the first round, and it is 826 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 1: not Marcus Mariotta. Well, we that was not revealed to us. 827 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,479 Speaker 1: So I guess when that happens, you can just say listen, 828 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: I already I was gonna tell you this song. We 829 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: have Gil's phone number, we let him up. T do 830 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 1: you get on that. I'm not convinced that Nick Foles 831 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: will be on this roster come week one. I we 832 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 1: keep hearing little whispers about potential teams interested in him. 833 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,840 Speaker 1: He could maybe be up for trade if if the 834 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: right offer came along. I just I don't know if 835 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 1: this is I don't think Sanche is the answer, but 836 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 1: it's insurance for what else might happen at the position. 837 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: He's not the answer. But after five starts with the 838 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: Eagles and Chip Kelly's offense, it was him luck Brady 839 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: Rogers manning the only quarterbacks overseeing an offense averaging three 840 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: fifty yards per game. So Chip Kelling knows that worst 841 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,800 Speaker 1: case scenario, he stays his offense can still move the 842 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: chains with I think I think the Sanchez Eagles experiment 843 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: started to tail off a little bit as the weeks 844 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: crept on. I mean it was he was a very 845 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: hot starter. Yeah. I gave rap Sheets some grief for 846 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 1: saying on Twitter, noting on Twitter that Sanche's had a 847 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: career low and interceptions well the only played rights. You 848 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:57,280 Speaker 1: know what's funny about Sanchez. I was like, yeah, eleven, 849 00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: that's too many picks, But the rest of the stats 850 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: are pretty good through were that Chad's is completion percentages 851 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 1: like almost, so yeah, that's pretty good for him. Uh. 852 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: I think Foles now is a peace to trade to 853 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: your Jets to go get Marcus Mariota doesn't make a 854 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: lot of sense. And Tennessee at number two though sure. 855 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: Uh More Eagles news Byron Matt This is my favorite 856 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: quote of of of Sunday or the weekend, because you know, 857 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 1: nothing's supposed to be official right now. They're just some 858 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,359 Speaker 1: talking exchanging ideas. Thoughts. Are you interested in me? Am 859 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: I interested in you? Byron Maxwell quote to ESPN, I'm 860 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: going to Philly cornerback. Uh is signing with the Eagles, 861 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: leaving the legion of boom where he's obviously found success 862 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: playing with some all pro type players, and now he's 863 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: being asked in the type of money. I don't know 864 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 1: if we have any money figures out there yet right 865 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: now on Maxwell, but we imagine for the type of 866 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: money that a star cornerback gets paid. Greg, are the 867 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,360 Speaker 1: Eagles uh buying at a premium for a guy that 868 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 1: maybe doesn't deserve that type of They probably are. I mean, 869 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: I like Maxwell and Seattle, but you're right. The money 870 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 1: report so far is twenty five million guaranteed. Maxwell was 871 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 1: my pick for the most guaranteed money other than Sue. 872 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,360 Speaker 1: That was one of our propositions. And I saw that 873 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 1: twenty five million, and I thought, oh, that might wouldn't 874 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: be some sandwiches. I don't know if an he's going 875 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 1: to top that, but Devin mccordy has, and I think 876 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 1: now none of us are getting sandwiches. Screw you. I 877 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: always wonder how big of a factor is it when 878 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: a player has the best game of his career against 879 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 1: that team. Best's best game Byron Maxwell ever played was 880 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: against Seattle when the Sea or against Philadelphia when the 881 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 1: Seahawks shut down the Eagles offense late in the season, 882 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: and Maxwell was all over the field. I guess Chip. 883 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 1: I think it matters to Chip Kelly because when they 884 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: talk about why they drafted zach Ertz, for instance, it 885 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,839 Speaker 1: was because of the impression at Stanford he left twy 886 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: Fried Oregon. So certain coaches probably if you can beat me, 887 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:58,919 Speaker 1: you can take me on. Maybe that has more weight 888 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 1: if that's the only thing that's that's one of the 889 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: concerning things of having your head coach run your personnel department. 890 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,479 Speaker 1: And look, this is that is a lot of money 891 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: for Byron Maxwell. I mean, who knows, but I don't know. 892 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: I would rather pay Durrell Revas whatever he's gonna cost, 893 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 1: even if it's seventeen million dollars, then whatever maxw was making. 894 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,439 Speaker 1: Moving on Randall Cobb, who I think was my UH 895 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: pick for the most guaranteed money, that's not gonna happen. 896 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: But UH, cooler heads did prevail. He's going back. Was it? Okay? 897 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 1: So I'm still still Uh Randall comes staying with the 898 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: with the Packers in a four year, forty million dollar deal. 899 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: Uh in a case in Wes you you were stumping 900 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 1: for this to be the reality? Uh? Last week on 901 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 1: the podcast, everything makes sense. He gets paid what seems 902 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: like fair money for a guy at his level, seventeen 903 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: million guaranteed according to rap sheet uh West. Everything worked 904 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,399 Speaker 1: out here. Yeah. I had a lot of debates with 905 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: the crowd on Twitter that uh there's a there's a 906 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: group of people where there's a mindset that believes that 907 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: money is the only thing that matters in life. And 908 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: I always think that happiness should be first. Money can 909 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: be a big part of happiness. Well being should be first. 910 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: It always made the most sense for Randall Cobb to 911 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: stay in Green Bay. You know, to get four forty 912 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: million verses forty five million. Take the forty, Stay with 913 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks, Stay with the coaches they have to 914 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 1: knows how to use you. Stay with the front office 915 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: to value you as a human being, and go compute 916 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 1: for Super Bowls every year. Then when you're twenty eight, 917 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: hit the market again and cash in as the best 918 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 1: slot receiver in the game. He might end up in 919 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame as the best slot receiver in history. 920 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: Well with that quarterback, if he's playing alongside Rogers, that's 921 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: what helps it. I get concerned about on these free agents. 922 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: They come from the Green Bay offense, or like Julius 923 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,439 Speaker 1: Thomas with Denver and they go to a three win 924 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,439 Speaker 1: team with questions at quarterback and you never hear about 925 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 1: him again. Talking about Greg Jennings, well there's that example, 926 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,280 Speaker 1: but I think it's gonna happen to Julius Thommys Jones. 927 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 1: He on Branch to me is the most similar to 928 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: Randall Cobb went and chase the money in Seattle. Never 929 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: heard from him again. Patriots get him back when he's 930 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 1: broken as a player, and he never does anything again. 931 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 1: How awesome if you're a Packers fan to know that 932 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 1: you have Randall Cobb, Jordy Nelson, and Aaron Rodgers through 933 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen together and they can put up numbers 934 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:16,240 Speaker 1: better than the Colts triplets. By the way, going back too, 935 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,399 Speaker 1: you've had at any given time one of the best 936 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks ever running your team, and you've had all the 937 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: weapons around them. So but that's crime a river vane continuity. 938 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,480 Speaker 1: Who what other situation is even similar to that? Why 939 00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:29,880 Speaker 1: so I agree with Packers fans don't seem like they 940 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 1: complain ever to me, But you're always they have nothing 941 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:33,800 Speaker 1: to complain. What are they gonna come complain? Me about 942 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: What's what are they possibly upset about? Here's what they 943 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: can complain about if they don't get a Super Bowl 944 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: another title for Rodgers here during this Cobb contract, with 945 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: all of them staying together, that'd be a disappointment. They 946 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: wonderful fan base. They don't have a lot to you know, 947 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: moan about. Please before we move on to the next subject, 948 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 1: wes anything else to say about the money and happiness 949 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 1: dichotomy of life? I think I said it. I do 950 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 1: think that. Well. I mean, you're playing this up a 951 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: little too much, but I do believe I've turned down 952 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: money a couple of times in my life for happiness, 953 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: and I don't think i'd be where I am right 954 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 1: now if I didn't do that. I think that well 955 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: being is more important than money. But then again, I'm 956 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: also broke as a joke, so but not broken as 957 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 1: a man. You're a happy guy overall. Yeah, I'm pretty happy, 958 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 1: all right. And to keep you happy, we're gonna talk 959 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: about some mark Ingram. Your boy the Saints and and 960 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: mark Ingram the running Back agree to a four year, 961 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: sixteen million dollar deal. According to rap sheet uh and 962 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 1: this again goes back to you know, we talked about 963 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 1: it all the time, you know, leading up to free agency. Oh, 964 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,360 Speaker 1: this team, there's no way they can sign anybody. The 965 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 1: Saints were six trillion dollars over the salary cap. Up here, 966 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 1: we got sixteen million dollar deal for mark Ingram. Uh So, 967 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: I guess they did have some money and they figured 968 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 1: out a way to get under the cap. Uh West 969 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 1: mark Ingram staying with the Saints. You think that's a 970 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: wise move for his career. Yeah, I do. I think 971 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,280 Speaker 1: it's a good fit for both sides. I I honestly 972 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 1: believe Ingram could have made more money on the open market. 973 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 1: But um, I think he he had said a month 974 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:04,839 Speaker 1: ago he'd prefer to stay with the Saints. That's where 975 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: he's gonna be. And I think the Saints realized last 976 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: year how important he is to their offense. He's a 977 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: good example of someone that a year ago when we 978 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 1: when Greg and I went to the owners meetings, basically 979 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: was we're not going to go fifth year option with 980 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,959 Speaker 1: this guy, and we're gonna challenge him to even prove 981 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: that he deserves to be on this roster. In one season, 982 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 1: he changed the organization's mind completely and made a lot 983 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 1: of money for himself been a few of those. Kareem Jackson, 984 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:32,319 Speaker 1: Brandon Graham, and Ingram all got second contracts, big ones 985 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,360 Speaker 1: from their teams. West is smiling over there. I mean 986 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: they would have been called bus a couple of years ago. Yeah, 987 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 1: that's I asked you. Does that mean you're gonna buy 988 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 1: stock in Trent richardson this? That's right? That guy have 989 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: no memory anymore. Yeah, well, I do agree with that mindset. 990 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,479 Speaker 1: In the NFL, you can't write off first round guys 991 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 1: who don't live up the expectations right away. You know 992 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,240 Speaker 1: they're talented. Could be a scheme fit. The Saints switched 993 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 1: to a Mark was talking about this. They switched to 994 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: his own blocking scheme last year and at Ingram perfectly. 995 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,360 Speaker 1: And then they got rid of Pierre, which we have 996 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 1: we haven't had a chance to mention in the show. 997 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: We just gotta say poor went out for Pierre Thomas, 998 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 1: one of the all time New Orleans Saints. We're gonna 999 00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 1: miss you, best screen pass back of his generation. I 1000 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 1: get chills thinking about him. Let's move on to the 1001 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 1: NFC West finally, Uh, Patrick willis this uh listen structure 1002 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,800 Speaker 1: of the show. I'm responsible for it, and maybe this 1003 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: should have been higher. I'm gonna say it right now. 1004 00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,440 Speaker 1: How was that? How was this what we're doing it? 1005 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 1: In order divisions whatever? Whatever? And the email I was 1006 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 1: cc on his Mark pointed out, how was this this low? 1007 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 1: Do you mean the email that you could have replied 1008 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 1: to him? Maybe you get out of the carbon copy 1009 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:39,160 Speaker 1: and if you can. Hey, you've ever watched a TV show, 1010 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 1: They always always they just put the best twenty minutes 1011 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: up first. No, you save something big for the end. 1012 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: So Patrick Willis, who has been one of the best 1013 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 1: middle linebackers in the NFL of his of his era. 1014 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,359 Speaker 1: In eight years, this guy went to the Pro Bowl 1015 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: seven times, five team, five first team All Pro. This 1016 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: is Hall of Fame type production. Uh, thirty years old. 1017 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,880 Speaker 1: He's out, He's retiring. He's It's been reported first by 1018 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,000 Speaker 1: Yeah Who's Sports and then rap sheet confirmed it. He's 1019 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,839 Speaker 1: gonna announce his retirement. He's been He missed the end 1020 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,279 Speaker 1: of last year with a toe injury. Apparently has some 1021 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: stuff outside the sport that he wants to get interested in. 1022 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: So Patrick Willis, and one of the more stunning news 1023 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 1: elements of the off season so far, walks away from 1024 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 1: the game at age thirty mark. But you gotta feel 1025 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 1: for Jim tom Seula because just a month ago he 1026 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: had Willis. He was at the combine, you know, spinning 1027 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: his words around in various ways to say that Justin 1028 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,759 Speaker 1: Smith might be back sudden. He's called Frank Gore his 1029 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,240 Speaker 1: type of player. He just loved Frank Gore. He wanted 1030 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 1: Michael Crabtree back. All four of these guys probably not 1031 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,399 Speaker 1: going to be with the team next year. And it's 1032 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,280 Speaker 1: not what it's it's reverse recruiting. I mean, you're losing 1033 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 1: so many starts and talent right out the door. It's 1034 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:52,360 Speaker 1: gonna this team potentially just sits at the bottom of 1035 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:56,360 Speaker 1: this division next year. Justin Smith said he's not a dent. 1036 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: Sure he's going to retire, but most people expect him to. 1037 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 1: Gor Crabtree, you, Potty mob Brooks, Stevie Johnson, Chris Culiver, 1038 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 1: Parish Cox, the whole list. They could all be gone. 1039 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 1: Twenty one Pro Bowls in eight, fifty NFL starts could 1040 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 1: be walking out the door for the San Francisco forty niners. 1041 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 1: Doesn't bode well for Jim tom sola Era. And you know, 1042 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: Jed York decided that Trent Bulky's player acquisition skills were 1043 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:26,280 Speaker 1: more valuable than Jim Harball's coaching skills. We're gonna find 1044 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,880 Speaker 1: out Jim Harbaw to me comes off like a demented 1045 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,319 Speaker 1: genius getting out right when the ship's going down. He goes, 1046 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 1: it's gonna hanging out with co eds and and uh 1047 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 1: selling out a hundred and fifty thousand seats stadiums. Good 1048 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: spot for Jim Harbor. Jim tom Sewella not so much. 1049 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 1: And Greg had a interesting point on Patrick Wilson as 1050 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 1: far as the Hall of Fame discussions, right, I mean, 1051 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: this is a weird story because on one hand, it's 1052 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:51,720 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna hurt them on the field 1053 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 1: that much. Necessarily you have Navarra Bowman and Chris Borland. 1054 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 1: That's a great inside linebacker duo if Bowman is healthy. 1055 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: But it's a massive and of beel story if it 1056 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 1: dropped at a different time of year. Because Patrick Willis 1057 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,479 Speaker 1: is a Hall of Fame candidate. I mean, how many 1058 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 1: other five time first team All Pros are not in 1059 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. I'd love research to do that. 1060 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 1: I doubt, I doubt very many. So he was on 1061 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,120 Speaker 1: track to make it to Canton. I think there's no 1062 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 1: doubt now that his career ends at thirty, it'll be 1063 00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: a weird case. I kind of think he won't make it. 1064 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,360 Speaker 1: He did the Jim Brown thing. I think Brown stepped 1065 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 1: away a thirty two, right, but obviously not at that 1066 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 1: level as a player, but you know, kind of in 1067 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,360 Speaker 1: the ballpark for his position, a dominant guy, and and 1068 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:31,319 Speaker 1: was among the best in his position from the time 1069 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 1: he stepped on the field. He's gonna be right on 1070 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: the border line. It wasn't like a defensive Player of 1071 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: the Year type of guy though, either. I mean, he 1072 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 1: was really comparisons to Jim Brown and Gayl Sayers, both 1073 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 1: who were revolutionary talents in the NFL. Now he wasn't 1074 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,160 Speaker 1: that trick. Willis was not a revel. He was all pro, 1075 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: which is, you know, as good as you can, one 1076 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: of the two best at his position. But he wasn't 1077 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:54,399 Speaker 1: a ray Lewis. Now it'll be it'll be a tough one. 1078 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 1: And ce TD, you're lucky you were even bringing it up. 1079 00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: This guy. Come on, he wasn't even very little us. 1080 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 1: But what do you say? It was a year or 1081 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:06,319 Speaker 1: two he was the premier middle lineback and to three 1082 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: years ago. I mean Bowman really passed him on his 1083 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: own team, and that was two years ago. I would say, yeah, 1084 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: three years was almost like he was supposed to take 1085 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 1: over from Ray Lewis, and then when he was supposed 1086 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 1: to take over, he got hurt and then Bowman started 1087 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,800 Speaker 1: coming in. And I don't know I remember back. I 1088 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 1: think it was two thousand seven. I conducted an interview 1089 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 1: with Patrick Willis while he was playing Madden against Lawrence Moroney. 1090 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: How about that Lawrence moronioslo on that Hall of Fame 1091 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 1: fringe conversation. Don't like a nice guy? That's good? That 1092 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 1: sounds like an impact interview. I'm sure you've got a 1093 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,319 Speaker 1: lot of good stuff out of Moroney. High. I think, 1094 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:44,239 Speaker 1: what's super Bowl Week? So you'd hope do we want 1095 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 1: to get Do we want to give any credence to 1096 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: this rumor that Niners Jim Trent Balky shot down that 1097 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,359 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick was being shot by the team. That's not possible, right, 1098 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 1: unless they're just going to fold the franchise. Doesn't make 1099 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,719 Speaker 1: any sense to me. I mean for what I mean then, 1100 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: I mean, unless you're gonna trade him for another quarterback, 1101 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 1: maybe some team called all about him. I mean the 1102 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 1: fact that it was just one random radio guys report. 1103 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm surprised it kind of got to the national consciousness. 1104 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 1: But we should do that. We should just drop something 1105 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 1: and see if it takes off. I had no idea 1106 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 1: this was being talked about. I did a radio interview 1107 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:15,359 Speaker 1: last night and a guy asked me. He said that 1108 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer was going to San Francisco, and well, that 1109 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:22,839 Speaker 1: was a threat to Kaepernick's job. And I almost west 1110 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,320 Speaker 1: not the right guy to asked, said, Brian Hoyer is 1111 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 1: an NFL backup. He's not a threat to callin Kaepernick's job. Finally, this, uh, 1112 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 1: this broke I think before the weekend. But let's just 1113 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,839 Speaker 1: touch on a quickly. Marshawn Lynch signs a two year 1114 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: extension with the Seattle Seahawks. Contract is worth four million 1115 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 1: of new money and pays thirty one million over the 1116 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:44,439 Speaker 1: next three years. That's some real scratch for beast Mode. 1117 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 1: Who if you watched him in the playoffs, you know 1118 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,320 Speaker 1: he's worth every penny. I mean, the one thing about 1119 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 1: Seattle that they had going for them a couple of 1120 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 1: seasons ago up till through last year was that their 1121 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:56,799 Speaker 1: quarterback was playing on a rookie contract. Now you're paying 1122 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: Lynch this kind of money, and what we've heard at 1123 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: the combine, know what was gonna come Russell Wilson's way, 1124 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 1: which was within a neighbor of sixteen million guaranteed a year, 1125 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:08,440 Speaker 1: potentially that they've completely changed the way they deal with things. 1126 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: Successes forced them to pay players in an outrageous manner. 1127 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,959 Speaker 1: They they're confident that they can that Russell Wilson's number 1128 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 1: against the cap in his first year will be about 1129 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:20,839 Speaker 1: seven million, which isn't which isn't bad compared to other 1130 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 1: high high end quarterbacks. I don't see any any other 1131 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 1: team's roster is stronger than Seattle. I mean, green Bay 1132 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: will be right there. But even with paying all these 1133 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 1: guys are still gonna be really good. Um. The most 1134 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,760 Speaker 1: interesting thing here I thought was I think they guaranteed 1135 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:37,399 Speaker 1: a money, significant money into the second year. So as 1136 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 1: long as Marshawn Lynch wants to play, this issue is 1137 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 1: put to bed. And it reminds me of you know, 1138 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,840 Speaker 1: and we're guilty of this too.

Mark, by the way, 1165 00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 1: a little fun think of the time element on Mantell. 1166 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 1: You mentioned on the podcast that it was blasting in 1167 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 1: high school dances for you. The song came out in 1168 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 1: like nineties six. I believe you would have been in 1169 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,279 Speaker 1: college or ending your unless you were going to high 1170 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:16,080 Speaker 1: school dances as a twenty three year old man.

I have no idea 1173 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:21,880 Speaker 1: what happened back then. So now it's time West and 1174 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,799 Speaker 1: Mark both are gonna give up their submissions for their 1175 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 1: songs again. We could have multiple songs. We'll start with 1176 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: Chris Westling, who you mentioned it on the show, uh 1177 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 1: previous show, that this is a song that you wanted 1178 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 1: to play. We got it set up. Oh okay, yeah, yeah, 1179 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:38,359 Speaker 1: so you you want to play it right now, let's 1180 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 1: play it. Let's play it. That's good, Let's let's do it. 1181 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:51,399 Speaker 1: Some type of raise the roof. I like this song. 1182 00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 1: This is great dance songs. Yeah, you were trying to 1183 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:57,440 Speaker 1: make the case downstairs that it was the greatest song 1184 00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,080 Speaker 1: of all time in the history of music. Well that 1185 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 1: seems that well. I mean, I might be a little 1186 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: bit a little hyperbolic, but that's great. That's another great one. 1187 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 1: Who's the artist again, Rob Based and DJ Easy Rock. 1188 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:10,160 Speaker 1: They they're on the French for the Hall of Fame 1189 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 1: as well. Uh and now Mark Sessler also he had 1190 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: been in communication with TV, shaking his head. I'm really 1191 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 1: looking forward to this. I don't know what it is. 1192 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,000 Speaker 1: None of us know. This is Mark's submission for a 1193 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:37,440 Speaker 1: celebration song. I can tell you is that or flow. 1194 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 1: I can tell exactly what this is because my mother, 1195 00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 1: uh Deb who's Irish American woman, loves Enya and and 1196 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,400 Speaker 1: you played often in my dining room as a child. 1197 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: Is listen. I don't think I need to even put 1198 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 1: a hard sell on this. You guys are giving me 1199 00:57:56,160 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 1: a bunch of mid nineties, you know, David mid levels songs. 1200 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm giving you an anthem that probably at any age 1201 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 1: in human history, could have made people feel something if 1202 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 1: since it's your song, we can definitely use it. I 1203 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 1: would say that next time West gets philosophical. We could 1204 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: also drop an Enya behind. Oh, it's very versatile. You 1205 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,920 Speaker 1: could use it in multiple ways. It's like Brandon Graham. 1206 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 1: It makes a lot of sense too, because Mark doesn't 1207 00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 1: like food and I feel like Enya is the type 1208 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 1: of musician for people who don't really like music they 1209 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 1: listened to. I don't think that was fair summary all right, 1210 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 1: I don't agree. They had their songs on. Let's let's 1211 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: just play my song, Let's do it, Snake Attack, you 1212 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 1: gotta top this one stop.

That's why they shell out outrageous money 1281 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 1: for Jeremy Parnell. Jeremy obviously vastly overpaid. But is that 1282 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 1: not a birth certificate spelling mistake that's just carried on. 1283 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:29,640 Speaker 1: That's all that is.
