All here and 10 00:00:50,028 --> 00:00:51,748 Speaker 1: it's time for the lead block. Let's get you in. 11 00:00:51,908 --> 00:00:54,948 Speaker 1: Let's go. Yeah. We gotta start our show with the knowledge. 12 00:00:54,948 --> 00:00:58,668 Speaker 1: Setting the table are Tom Pellasaro and Ian Rappaport. Massive 13 00:00:58,788 --> 00:01:01,748 Speaker 1: trade goes down and happens last night a Bonto Adams 14 00:01:01,748 --> 00:01:03,748 Speaker 1: heading to the Raiders. Ian, we'll start with you, how 15 00:01:03,868 --> 00:01:06,508 Speaker 1: did it happen? Well, very quietly, this has been the 16 00:01:06,548 --> 00:01:08,708 Speaker 1: works for the last several days, ever since it became 17 00:01:08,788 --> 00:01:11,588 Speaker 1: clear kay that Davanta Adams was not going to play 18 00:01:11,588 --> 00:01:13,548 Speaker 1: on the franchise tag for the Green Bay Packers, and 19 00:01:13,628 --> 00:01:15,548 Speaker 1: not only that he was not going to play for 20 00:01:15,588 --> 00:01:19,188 Speaker 1: the Packers again. They understood that. Aaron Rodgers, before he 21 00:01:19,268 --> 00:01:22,628 Speaker 1: signed his contract, understood that everyone knew what was happening 22 00:01:22,748 --> 00:01:25,068 Speaker 1: privately in Green Bay, and they got to work with 23 00:01:25,108 --> 00:01:28,588 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders on the only place that Devanta 24 00:01:28,628 --> 00:01:31,188 Speaker 1: Adams wanted to go. It has been several days in 25 00:01:31,308 --> 00:01:33,788 Speaker 1: different permutations of this trade, but in the end, this 26 00:01:33,908 --> 00:01:36,788 Speaker 1: is where it lands. It is Davanta Adams one of 27 00:01:36,828 --> 00:01:39,028 Speaker 1: the best receivers in the NFL. He goes to the 28 00:01:39,108 --> 00:01:41,628 Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders and exchange for a first round pick 29 00:01:41,708 --> 00:01:45,468 Speaker 1: and a second round pick. This year, those go to 30 00:01:45,548 --> 00:01:48,068 Speaker 1: the Packers now a little more cap space, a little 31 00:01:48,068 --> 00:01:51,348 Speaker 1: more ammunition to load up their roster. But that is 32 00:01:51,388 --> 00:01:53,908 Speaker 1: not all time. Devanta Adams gets a five year, one 33 00:01:53,988 --> 00:01:57,068 Speaker 1: hundred and forty one point two five million dollars contract, 34 00:01:57,148 --> 00:02:00,228 Speaker 1: more than twenty eight million dollars per year, which is 35 00:02:00,268 --> 00:02:02,828 Speaker 1: a lot, but as his agents told me last night, 36 00:02:02,948 --> 00:02:07,108 Speaker 1: the Packers offered more. Simply, it was his lifelong dream 37 00:02:07,228 --> 00:02:10,468 Speaker 1: to play with the Las Vegas Raiders and with quarterback 38 00:02:10,508 --> 00:02:13,828 Speaker 1: Derek Carr and Ian. On Wednesday, people on both sides 39 00:02:13,908 --> 00:02:16,268 Speaker 1: told me this trade was dead. It was not going 40 00:02:16,308 --> 00:02:18,588 Speaker 1: to happen. It was the Raiders who had backed away 41 00:02:18,748 --> 00:02:22,148 Speaker 1: from the table. They explored other options, then came back 42 00:02:22,268 --> 00:02:26,228 Speaker 1: on Thursday upped their offer for Davante Adams, and that's 43 00:02:26,268 --> 00:02:30,188 Speaker 1: when things escalated quickly. As you mentioned, Aaron Rodgers was 44 00:02:30,228 --> 00:02:32,388 Speaker 1: aware of what was going on. He had met with 45 00:02:32,428 --> 00:02:35,348 Speaker 1: coach Matt Lafleur, among others. Now it's a matter of 46 00:02:35,428 --> 00:02:38,148 Speaker 1: who do the Packers get to replace Davanta Adams. Of course, 47 00:02:38,188 --> 00:02:40,708 Speaker 1: one of the best receivers in the NFL is irreplaceable, 48 00:02:40,908 --> 00:02:43,588 Speaker 1: but expect the Packers to be aggressive here, whether it 49 00:02:43,708 --> 00:02:47,948 Speaker 1: is through trades or free agents, to fill with veteran 50 00:02:48,028 --> 00:02:50,428 Speaker 1: players as well as potential draft picks to try to 51 00:02:50,508 --> 00:02:52,588 Speaker 1: make up for what they're losing with one of their 52 00:02:52,628 --> 00:02:56,188 Speaker 1: best players. Okay, such an important draft for this Packers squad. 53 00:02:56,188 --> 00:02:58,228 Speaker 1: They have lots of holes to fill. They can do 54 00:02:58,268 --> 00:03:01,308 Speaker 1: that now without paying Davanta Adams. Appreciate you both told 55 00:03:01,308 --> 00:03:02,628 Speaker 1: you I wasn't going to play on the taggy and 56 00:03:02,868 --> 00:03:04,228 Speaker 1: not going to play the tag I think let's go 57 00:03:04,428 --> 00:03:06,388 Speaker 1: back to last year with Devontae Adams and we'll get 58 00:03:06,388 --> 00:03:08,108 Speaker 1: to his side of this. But Kyle, when you heard 59 00:03:08,148 --> 00:03:10,788 Speaker 1: it happened. You were one of the many that maintained 60 00:03:10,908 --> 00:03:13,188 Speaker 1: both of them will be there together. I know, I'm shocked, 61 00:03:13,268 --> 00:03:15,108 Speaker 1: and it's so cool. And I'm looking at that and 62 00:03:15,148 --> 00:03:17,908 Speaker 1: I see swords and guns, and I see silver and black. 63 00:03:18,148 --> 00:03:20,188 Speaker 1: The Packers part of this is the soap opera, and 64 00:03:20,188 --> 00:03:22,468 Speaker 1: we'll talk about it. But the Raiders part is the 65 00:03:22,468 --> 00:03:24,388 Speaker 1: action film, and I want to talk about that. They're 66 00:03:24,388 --> 00:03:26,428 Speaker 1: playing in the most talented division we've ever seen, maybe, 67 00:03:26,468 --> 00:03:28,188 Speaker 1: and they decided to go out and get the best 68 00:03:28,228 --> 00:03:30,788 Speaker 1: pass rusher in free agency and the best receiver on 69 00:03:30,828 --> 00:03:33,268 Speaker 1: the planet. Let's just look at the Raiders of twenty 70 00:03:33,348 --> 00:03:37,268 Speaker 1: twenty two and their core offense, guys, is a nice route. 71 00:03:37,468 --> 00:03:40,308 Speaker 1: I mean, there's some studs there, Hunter Renfrow, what he 72 00:03:40,308 --> 00:03:43,188 Speaker 1: did last year, Davante, Darren Waller, Jacob's car. That's what 73 00:03:43,268 --> 00:03:45,788 Speaker 1: you're going to battle with against the Chiefs and against 74 00:03:45,788 --> 00:03:48,628 Speaker 1: the Chargers and against the Broncos. That's what they're doing. 75 00:03:48,908 --> 00:03:50,708 Speaker 1: And I have to look at Josh mcdandels on this. 76 00:03:50,988 --> 00:03:53,548 Speaker 1: Josh mcdandels is creating this in his own image, not 77 00:03:53,708 --> 00:03:56,148 Speaker 1: the Bill Belichick, not the Patriots image. I think it's 78 00:03:56,188 --> 00:03:58,908 Speaker 1: so incredible that he leaves Bill Belichick after all these years, 79 00:03:58,908 --> 00:04:01,108 Speaker 1: and the first thing he does is signed Chandler Jones, 80 00:04:01,148 --> 00:04:02,988 Speaker 1: who Belichick did not want to pay years ago and 81 00:04:02,988 --> 00:04:04,548 Speaker 1: get rid of. And then the next thing he has 82 00:04:04,588 --> 00:04:06,908 Speaker 1: has trade everything for a Star wide receiver, which Belgi 83 00:04:06,988 --> 00:04:09,228 Speaker 1: would have never done. There's a full like, I'm moving 84 00:04:09,228 --> 00:04:11,268 Speaker 1: out of Dad's house and screw you dad. I'm going 85 00:04:11,308 --> 00:04:13,508 Speaker 1: to live my own life. And it's a pretty cool life. 86 00:04:13,508 --> 00:04:16,068 Speaker 1: And in all the reports and everything we're hearing last night, 87 00:04:16,108 --> 00:04:17,908 Speaker 1: the most intriguing one and the one we're talking about 88 00:04:17,948 --> 00:04:20,548 Speaker 1: is that not only were the Packers willing to pay 89 00:04:20,908 --> 00:04:24,628 Speaker 1: the same money as the Raiders, but actually more so, 90 00:04:24,708 --> 00:04:27,908 Speaker 1: why was it so important for DeVante to leave? He 91 00:04:27,988 --> 00:04:29,908 Speaker 1: wanted He wanted to leave Rogers, You wanted to leave 92 00:04:29,908 --> 00:04:31,668 Speaker 1: the packs. One will leave everything. You have to go 93 00:04:31,668 --> 00:04:33,828 Speaker 1: back to the origs of story and sometimes we played 94 00:04:33,828 --> 00:04:36,068 Speaker 1: in college together. Is que to rold friends as cute 95 00:04:36,108 --> 00:04:38,228 Speaker 1: and that's great. It's so much bigger than that. And 96 00:04:38,308 --> 00:04:41,428 Speaker 1: we go back with videotape to DeVante Adams with a 97 00:04:41,468 --> 00:04:43,988 Speaker 1: lot less hair and a lot less money courtesy of 98 00:04:44,028 --> 00:04:47,868 Speaker 1: the Fresno by all the way back to DeVante in 99 00:04:47,868 --> 00:04:50,748 Speaker 1: college talking about Derek Carr, and this is why he 100 00:04:50,828 --> 00:04:53,468 Speaker 1: is a raider today of Core. I got here coach 101 00:04:53,708 --> 00:04:56,868 Speaker 1: dub which Keith Williams. He's over at Tulane now. He 102 00:04:57,148 --> 00:04:59,148 Speaker 1: when he was recruiting me, told me, you know, we 103 00:04:59,268 --> 00:05:03,428 Speaker 1: got a Jesus playing quarterback here and I quote he 104 00:05:03,468 --> 00:05:06,388 Speaker 1: said those exact So I don't want to flatter you 105 00:05:06,428 --> 00:05:08,868 Speaker 1: back there, Derek, but I knew once he said that, 106 00:05:08,908 --> 00:05:13,028 Speaker 1: I was like, you'll be there. And obviously to friends though, 107 00:05:13,388 --> 00:05:16,468 Speaker 1: and we got going right away. Obviously I red shirted, 108 00:05:16,788 --> 00:05:19,148 Speaker 1: but we were putting in work off the field, you know, 109 00:05:19,268 --> 00:05:21,668 Speaker 1: in practice, even though I wasn't playing that year. I 110 00:05:21,788 --> 00:05:23,668 Speaker 1: was making sure I was getting reps with him and 111 00:05:24,908 --> 00:05:26,868 Speaker 1: feeling the same way. And I just knew we had 112 00:05:26,908 --> 00:05:29,308 Speaker 1: a connection right off or after bat. And it wasn't 113 00:05:29,348 --> 00:05:32,148 Speaker 1: only on the field. We actually we're good friends off 114 00:05:32,188 --> 00:05:34,708 Speaker 1: the field as well. And they still are and now 115 00:05:34,748 --> 00:05:37,668 Speaker 1: their teammates on the field. There's the picks. The question 116 00:05:37,748 --> 00:05:39,468 Speaker 1: is will it be new trophy picks? Will they be 117 00:05:39,468 --> 00:05:42,748 Speaker 1: winning the AFC West instead of the Mountain West. It's 118 00:05:42,788 --> 00:05:44,908 Speaker 1: a deep, deep, deep connection that is not just oh 119 00:05:44,948 --> 00:05:47,068 Speaker 1: we're friends and we text. He could have stayed in 120 00:05:47,108 --> 00:05:48,788 Speaker 1: Green Bay. He could have made huge money in Green 121 00:05:48,828 --> 00:05:51,308 Speaker 1: Bay and he's gone, and I think the Raiders get 122 00:05:51,308 --> 00:05:52,868 Speaker 1: all the credit. And I took my hat to Josh 123 00:05:52,948 --> 00:05:56,788 Speaker 1: McDaniels because he's building something now. It's awesome, very exciting. 124 00:05:56,908 --> 00:05:59,468 Speaker 1: It's nice to see that sound bite, but it's even 125 00:05:59,628 --> 00:06:01,628 Speaker 1: nicer to see the damage they did on the field. 126 00:06:01,668 --> 00:06:03,588 Speaker 1: I asked our producers to kind of put up the 127 00:06:03,628 --> 00:06:06,188 Speaker 1: numbers or how good they were to two years together 128 00:06:06,228 --> 00:06:08,108 Speaker 1: in college. I know it's college and they play it 129 00:06:08,148 --> 00:06:11,348 Speaker 1: in the Whack Conference. Look at these numbers that DeVante 130 00:06:11,428 --> 00:06:15,628 Speaker 1: Adams put up with two years that twenty thirteen he 131 00:06:15,668 --> 00:06:18,708 Speaker 1: had twenty four receiving touchdowns. What are we talking about here? 132 00:06:18,948 --> 00:06:21,788 Speaker 1: It's two of the greatest college seasons we've ever seen. 133 00:06:21,828 --> 00:06:25,148 Speaker 1: At the receiver position blows out everything you could imagine, 134 00:06:25,748 --> 00:06:28,828 Speaker 1: and there is a familiarity there and that's all warm 135 00:06:28,908 --> 00:06:31,948 Speaker 1: and fuzzy. But to me, my reaction was, oh, things 136 00:06:31,948 --> 00:06:34,668 Speaker 1: got really ugly with Green Bay here, like things got 137 00:06:35,068 --> 00:06:38,588 Speaker 1: because yes, and there are agents who will tell you things, 138 00:06:38,628 --> 00:06:41,828 Speaker 1: and there are teams, and that's like the Packers offered 139 00:06:41,868 --> 00:06:45,268 Speaker 1: more money than the Raiders did. When did they offer 140 00:06:45,468 --> 00:06:49,348 Speaker 1: Roman at the Witching hour after two years of trying 141 00:06:49,348 --> 00:06:51,788 Speaker 1: to do this thing. And then I think of Rogers, 142 00:06:51,828 --> 00:06:54,388 Speaker 1: like and Rogers knew this was No one's has said 143 00:06:54,428 --> 00:06:56,508 Speaker 1: that Rogers was cool with this happening. Everyone's like in 144 00:06:56,588 --> 00:06:58,548 Speaker 1: Roger's nose, like Rogers was aware of this. Well, you 145 00:06:58,548 --> 00:07:01,188 Speaker 1: think Rogers is happy this morning. So Aaron Rodgers signed 146 00:07:01,308 --> 00:07:04,388 Speaker 1: this deal, there's mega deal and knew that Davante Adams 147 00:07:04,468 --> 00:07:06,748 Speaker 1: wouldn't be his teammate. I don't know. I feel like 148 00:07:06,788 --> 00:07:09,468 Speaker 1: that's very very fishy, I would be the word I 149 00:07:09,508 --> 00:07:11,508 Speaker 1: would say. And he wants to play with his childhood 150 00:07:11,548 --> 00:07:13,068 Speaker 1: team is always a great thing. He was a free 151 00:07:13,068 --> 00:07:15,228 Speaker 1: agent four years ago and signed with the Packers, so like, yes, 152 00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:17,388 Speaker 1: he wants to play with his childhood team. The Raiders like, 153 00:07:17,588 --> 00:07:19,948 Speaker 1: let's not make this all about car and the Raiders, 154 00:07:19,948 --> 00:07:21,548 Speaker 1: and they say, no matter why, it's had to play 155 00:07:21,548 --> 00:07:24,428 Speaker 1: with Derek Carr. Something would sour with the Packers here too. 156 00:07:24,548 --> 00:07:26,948 Speaker 1: You don't trade the greatest wide receiver in the NFL 157 00:07:27,068 --> 00:07:29,908 Speaker 1: unless everything has been exhausted and there's just no way 158 00:07:29,908 --> 00:07:31,588 Speaker 1: we can make it work. My last point is, look 159 00:07:31,588 --> 00:07:33,748 Speaker 1: at the compensation they got. Yeah, they get a first 160 00:07:33,828 --> 00:07:37,108 Speaker 1: round pick, the twenty second pick. That's nothing yet Jamal 161 00:07:37,228 --> 00:07:40,068 Speaker 1: Adams got two first round picks and a third round pick. 162 00:07:40,068 --> 00:07:43,068 Speaker 1: In Jamal Adams isn't in the same stratosphere as Davante Adams. 163 00:07:43,348 --> 00:07:44,868 Speaker 1: This is one of those deals where it was like 164 00:07:44,948 --> 00:07:48,228 Speaker 1: everything was over with Davanta Adams and the Packers. And 165 00:07:48,428 --> 00:07:50,108 Speaker 1: from the Packers standpoint, I think they were like, you 166 00:07:50,148 --> 00:07:52,228 Speaker 1: know what, We're not doing this again for a whole summer. 167 00:07:52,268 --> 00:07:54,068 Speaker 1: We'll trade your sixty cents on the dollar if you 168 00:07:54,068 --> 00:07:55,828 Speaker 1: want to go to the Raiders, go let us now 169 00:07:55,908 --> 00:07:58,028 Speaker 1: try to figure out our team. And to Tom's point, 170 00:07:58,308 --> 00:08:00,268 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be big game hunters in the 171 00:08:00,268 --> 00:08:02,468 Speaker 1: wide receiver position. I don't know what that means, and 172 00:08:02,508 --> 00:08:04,748 Speaker 1: it won't be Davante Adams level, but they're gon be 173 00:08:04,788 --> 00:08:06,468 Speaker 1: calling up teams and trying to get some because Rogers 174 00:08:06,548 --> 00:08:07,788 Speaker 1: isn't going in there to play with a bunch of 175 00:08:07,828 --> 00:08:10,268 Speaker 1: neophyts this year. That isn't happening. They're going to get Rogers. 176 00:08:10,268 --> 00:08:11,948 Speaker 1: Some guys did, and Rogers say like, let me go 177 00:08:12,028 --> 00:08:13,828 Speaker 1: get guys guys who want to come play with me. 178 00:08:14,028 --> 00:08:15,828 Speaker 1: Now he has a chance to exercise that right. It's 179 00:08:15,828 --> 00:08:17,668 Speaker 1: hard to believe he sat down and signed that contract 180 00:08:17,708 --> 00:08:19,908 Speaker 1: without being presented what life looks like with Javon Jay 181 00:08:19,948 --> 00:08:22,428 Speaker 1: Adams and I without Javonjay Adams, because if I'm sitting 182 00:08:22,428 --> 00:08:24,068 Speaker 1: here in New York and I know that things aren't 183 00:08:24,068 --> 00:08:26,828 Speaker 1: great in Green Bay, Aaron Rodgers knows what's going on. Yeah, 184 00:08:27,268 --> 00:08:29,668 Speaker 1: I'm with you Shregs on the whole fishingness of it, 185 00:08:29,708 --> 00:08:31,348 Speaker 1: And we'll get back to that later on in the 186 00:08:31,348 --> 00:08:33,308 Speaker 1: show about Green Bay and Aaron Rodgers what this all 187 00:08:33,348 --> 00:08:35,628 Speaker 1: means to it, because for him to pass up more 188 00:08:35,628 --> 00:08:37,708 Speaker 1: money to stay with Aaron Rodgers, who actually looks more 189 00:08:37,748 --> 00:08:40,068 Speaker 1: like Jesus than Derek Carl probably does. I think that 190 00:08:40,068 --> 00:08:41,828 Speaker 1: there's definitely something to that. Let's go back to the 191 00:08:41,868 --> 00:08:43,668 Speaker 1: Raider Nation right now, because a couple of days ago 192 00:08:43,708 --> 00:08:46,348 Speaker 1: we were talking about, like what team are you scratching 193 00:08:46,388 --> 00:08:48,588 Speaker 1: your head about? And I mentioned the Raiders because they 194 00:08:48,588 --> 00:08:50,228 Speaker 1: hadn't really done a whole lot. Well, this was all 195 00:08:50,228 --> 00:08:52,748 Speaker 1: in the works apparently, and I think if Raider Nation 196 00:08:52,828 --> 00:08:55,588 Speaker 1: did not sleep last night after hearing this news on 197 00:08:55,628 --> 00:08:57,788 Speaker 1: Saint Patrick's Day, I think they just parted right in 198 00:08:57,828 --> 00:09:00,228 Speaker 1: the night. They're probably still sleep right now, or maybe 199 00:09:00,228 --> 00:09:01,868 Speaker 1: they never went to bed. I don't know, but you 200 00:09:01,948 --> 00:09:04,148 Speaker 1: have to look at that division, the AFC West right now, 201 00:09:04,508 --> 00:09:07,748 Speaker 1: say like we're there, We're defensively worse getting some players 202 00:09:07,748 --> 00:09:10,508 Speaker 1: in here, but offensively it's Derek Carr. You look at 203 00:09:10,508 --> 00:09:12,228 Speaker 1: the stats and the season that he had last year. 204 00:09:12,228 --> 00:09:13,948 Speaker 1: I don't think it's enough credit to gover for forty 205 00:09:13,988 --> 00:09:16,348 Speaker 1: eight hundred yards and he did it with you know, 206 00:09:16,428 --> 00:09:18,468 Speaker 1: some banged up receiving corps, a couple of receivers that 207 00:09:18,548 --> 00:09:20,508 Speaker 1: weren't even there. I want you to just look at 208 00:09:20,508 --> 00:09:24,028 Speaker 1: the leading passers the AFC last year, right, This is 209 00:09:24,068 --> 00:09:25,828 Speaker 1: just this is the AFC. This is not just the 210 00:09:25,948 --> 00:09:30,708 Speaker 1: FC West. Right. The top three quarterbacks last year are 211 00:09:30,748 --> 00:09:34,108 Speaker 1: all this division. Herbert Mahomes car. Now we're adding Russell 212 00:09:34,108 --> 00:09:38,828 Speaker 1: Wilson to this. So this division right now is it's 213 00:09:38,868 --> 00:09:42,308 Speaker 1: it's offense rocker right now. It's gonna be an unbelievable 214 00:09:42,468 --> 00:09:46,108 Speaker 1: in division rivalry games week after week to watch. And 215 00:09:46,148 --> 00:09:48,668 Speaker 1: I think Derek Carr might end up being the best 216 00:09:48,668 --> 00:09:50,148 Speaker 1: of the ball out of this whole group right now 217 00:09:50,148 --> 00:09:52,468 Speaker 1: because of DeVante Adams. I think he's that good that 218 00:09:52,588 --> 00:09:55,388 Speaker 1: I think this completely changes the trajectory and the narrative 219 00:09:55,428 --> 00:09:58,428 Speaker 1: around Derek Carr. He's got his assassin down in the 220 00:09:58,468 --> 00:10:01,348 Speaker 1: red zone. He's got his go to guy in the 221 00:10:01,988 --> 00:10:04,548 Speaker 1: end zone, the fade routes, the third downs. This is 222 00:10:04,548 --> 00:10:06,868 Speaker 1: his guy, and I can't wait to watch that relationship 223 00:10:06,908 --> 00:10:09,908 Speaker 1: continue to grow. Both David and Derek Carr were running 224 00:10:10,028 --> 00:10:12,508 Speaker 1: laps around their houses when this was announced. And I 225 00:10:12,508 --> 00:10:13,868 Speaker 1: can't wait to watch it. I can't wait to watch 226 00:10:13,868 --> 00:10:17,428 Speaker 1: all the phones, the dissolution of what's going on between 227 00:10:17,468 --> 00:10:20,268 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams and the Packers or I don't think look 228 00:10:20,388 --> 00:10:22,028 Speaker 1: very great in this. You have this whole thing happened 229 00:10:22,108 --> 00:10:24,188 Speaker 1: last year. He had a wide receiver who does everything 230 00:10:24,228 --> 00:10:26,628 Speaker 1: the right way, never talks out of turns that you know, 231 00:10:26,708 --> 00:10:29,148 Speaker 1: works really hard, is one of the best. He wants 232 00:10:29,148 --> 00:10:31,108 Speaker 1: a deal done and that gets lost in this mess 233 00:10:31,148 --> 00:10:33,188 Speaker 1: of what happened last year. They couldn't come to terms. 234 00:10:33,188 --> 00:10:35,868 Speaker 1: He wasn't happy about it. There negotiations go away, they 235 00:10:35,908 --> 00:10:38,948 Speaker 1: come back, and now it happens this year where it's again, 236 00:10:39,148 --> 00:10:40,788 Speaker 1: I want to get paid that these are the things 237 00:10:40,788 --> 00:10:43,148 Speaker 1: that I want. I'm not going to play on the franchise. 238 00:10:43,228 --> 00:10:45,708 Speaker 1: Tag don't think that I will. Don't tag me, and 239 00:10:45,748 --> 00:10:47,748 Speaker 1: he gets tagged, and at that point I think it's 240 00:10:47,788 --> 00:10:50,708 Speaker 1: sort of over. I'm the Devonte part. I guess my 241 00:10:50,708 --> 00:10:53,788 Speaker 1: reaction was not surprised. Make total sense to me, he 242 00:10:53,828 --> 00:10:55,588 Speaker 1: wasn't happy with the way it all went, going back 243 00:10:55,588 --> 00:10:57,788 Speaker 1: to last year and how he knows how long before 244 00:10:57,788 --> 00:10:59,868 Speaker 1: that he deserves what money he wants or whatever team's 245 00:10:59,868 --> 00:11:01,468 Speaker 1: going to pay him and make him feel that way 246 00:11:01,708 --> 00:11:03,428 Speaker 1: with his last bite of the apple at age of 247 00:11:03,468 --> 00:11:06,228 Speaker 1: twenty nine with a huge deal. The Aaronning goal, though, 248 00:11:06,428 --> 00:11:10,468 Speaker 1: is very interesting to me because we've talked endlessly at 249 00:11:10,508 --> 00:11:13,788 Speaker 1: this table about what is important to Aaron Rodgers if 250 00:11:13,788 --> 00:11:15,588 Speaker 1: he comes back to Green. You know, he was what 251 00:11:15,628 --> 00:11:17,268 Speaker 1: should he do? Should he come back, and I said, no, 252 00:11:17,308 --> 00:11:19,948 Speaker 1: he shouldn't come back until he knows what egs up 253 00:11:20,028 --> 00:11:23,068 Speaker 1: exactly with Javonte Adams, because that if you want a ring, 254 00:11:23,228 --> 00:11:25,228 Speaker 1: then that puts you in the best position to get one, 255 00:11:25,348 --> 00:11:28,028 Speaker 1: is you two together. If not, if there's anything that's 256 00:11:28,028 --> 00:11:29,868 Speaker 1: wishy washy, or you don't know what's going on with 257 00:11:29,908 --> 00:11:32,748 Speaker 1: your star wide receiver, you go to Denver. Denver is 258 00:11:32,788 --> 00:11:34,788 Speaker 1: the place I think without Adams that is a better 259 00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:36,908 Speaker 1: I think Denver has a better chance, even in that 260 00:11:36,948 --> 00:11:41,028 Speaker 1: crazy AFC than the Packers do right now without Adams? 261 00:11:41,028 --> 00:11:43,188 Speaker 1: Now is there plan? As he presented with something, We're 262 00:11:43,188 --> 00:11:45,708 Speaker 1: not done. We'll go get Doju. We'll go get whoever 263 00:11:45,748 --> 00:11:47,388 Speaker 1: we got your randall, Cob, go make a call, go 264 00:11:47,508 --> 00:11:50,308 Speaker 1: make it happen. We'll dish the backup quarterback we drafted 265 00:11:50,348 --> 00:11:52,188 Speaker 1: we didn't help you before. We'll trade him and get 266 00:11:52,188 --> 00:11:54,308 Speaker 1: more capital and hit it big in free agency and 267 00:11:54,588 --> 00:11:57,268 Speaker 1: whatever that takes. I know it speaks to Aaron's confidence. 268 00:11:57,508 --> 00:12:00,308 Speaker 1: I want a ring without Davante Adams. I've turned many 269 00:12:00,348 --> 00:12:03,468 Speaker 1: a wide receiver into great wide receiver. I can my 270 00:12:03,588 --> 00:12:06,948 Speaker 1: success isn't attached to this person. I just from Aaron's angle, 271 00:12:06,988 --> 00:12:09,188 Speaker 1: I find it really interesting because what do you want? 272 00:12:09,188 --> 00:12:10,748 Speaker 1: Did you want to come back and be the highest page? 273 00:12:10,748 --> 00:12:12,508 Speaker 1: Did you want to end your career in Green Bay? 274 00:12:12,548 --> 00:12:14,308 Speaker 1: Was that always important to you? Then? What was all 275 00:12:14,348 --> 00:12:16,348 Speaker 1: of this for? If you knew and you knew that 276 00:12:16,428 --> 00:12:18,228 Speaker 1: there was a chance to Bonta wouldn't be there, and 277 00:12:18,388 --> 00:12:21,628 Speaker 1: they cynic would say, Brady makes a phone call and 278 00:12:21,668 --> 00:12:24,548 Speaker 1: guys take less money to come there. What where was that? 279 00:12:24,748 --> 00:12:27,508 Speaker 1: And yet part of me, like the Devil's Advocate, is 280 00:12:27,588 --> 00:12:29,948 Speaker 1: kind of like Davante, you wanted that money, you don't 281 00:12:29,948 --> 00:12:31,948 Speaker 1: want to be here, love you, well, get yours and 282 00:12:32,068 --> 00:12:34,188 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm Aaron Rodgers and I'll figure it out. 283 00:12:34,468 --> 00:12:36,628 Speaker 1: And wouldn't that be a statement this year? So a 284 00:12:36,748 --> 00:12:39,908 Speaker 1: waiver on the Rogers take on it, because everyone says 285 00:12:39,908 --> 00:12:41,188 Speaker 1: that he knew this all going on, But I can't 286 00:12:41,228 --> 00:12:44,588 Speaker 1: imagine he didn't make a last second plea to Adams 287 00:12:44,588 --> 00:12:46,508 Speaker 1: and say come on, dude, we're so close and the 288 00:12:46,548 --> 00:12:48,268 Speaker 1: money was right and all this was right, and Adam 289 00:12:48,348 --> 00:12:49,948 Speaker 1: still said no, well that at some point it's just 290 00:12:49,988 --> 00:12:53,268 Speaker 1: like say, Lavie, I guess we'll have to figures Vegas. 291 00:12:53,348 --> 00:12:56,388 Speaker 1: It is you think you'd come back if he wasn't there? 292 00:12:56,588 --> 00:13:00,788 Speaker 1: Here he is and they did. If you're a quarterback, 293 00:13:00,788 --> 00:13:03,028 Speaker 1: that's the best to ever are you? Do you care 294 00:13:03,028 --> 00:13:05,188 Speaker 1: what that wide receivers doing to a certain point, yes, 295 00:13:05,228 --> 00:13:07,428 Speaker 1: but like maybe he's just happy for him and he 296 00:13:07,468 --> 00:13:09,028 Speaker 1: thinks he can do it. There has to be in 297 00:13:09,068 --> 00:13:11,268 Speaker 1: my opinion, I would imagine if you're a smart, savvy 298 00:13:11,308 --> 00:13:13,268 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, there's a plan that was presented to you 299 00:13:13,308 --> 00:13:17,508 Speaker 1: of what life looks like without Davanta Adams at GMFE 300 00:13:17,628 --> 00:13:18,828 Speaker 1: and we will and we got to get to the 301 00:13:18,868 --> 00:13:22,028 Speaker 1: other angles of this to the AFC West. Oh my goodness, 302 00:13:22,228 --> 00:13:24,908 Speaker 1: things were getting messy in Cleveland. What does the future 303 00:13:24,908 --> 00:13:27,508 Speaker 1: hold for Baker Mayfield and the Browns? Hopefully look at it. 304 00:13:27,548 --> 00:13:40,148 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson updates today, Stay tuned, Welcome back to the morning. 305 00:13:40,268 --> 00:13:43,148 Speaker 1: The Balls, Vant Adams as Oh greater, We'll talk AFC West, Will, 306 00:13:43,228 --> 00:13:46,268 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, toun Poles are Ian repperpart joining us again? Ian, 307 00:13:46,348 --> 00:13:48,828 Speaker 1: Let's start with you crazy news day around the league 308 00:13:48,828 --> 00:13:51,508 Speaker 1: as usual. Take us to Cleveland, though, where Baker Mayfield 309 00:13:51,588 --> 00:13:55,268 Speaker 1: has requested a trade. The Browns are like, nah, then 310 00:13:55,308 --> 00:13:58,028 Speaker 1: there's Deshaun Watson. What's going on? All right? So let's 311 00:13:58,068 --> 00:14:00,508 Speaker 1: start with the Deshaun Watson situation because at least k 312 00:14:00,828 --> 00:14:04,828 Speaker 1: finally we are getting closer, closer not there to a decision. 313 00:14:04,988 --> 00:14:08,908 Speaker 1: Last night a significant development. The Carolina Panthers were informed 314 00:14:08,948 --> 00:14:12,108 Speaker 1: that they are out. Earlier it was the Cleveland Browns 315 00:14:12,268 --> 00:14:15,108 Speaker 1: they are also out, So that means it is simply 316 00:14:15,188 --> 00:14:19,188 Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints or the Atlanta Falcons. For Deshaun Watson, 317 00:14:19,228 --> 00:14:21,708 Speaker 1: he is still going back and forth. Wanted to sleep 318 00:14:21,748 --> 00:14:24,828 Speaker 1: on it last night. Presumably potentially we will have a 319 00:14:24,948 --> 00:14:27,468 Speaker 1: decision today, but of course is one of the more 320 00:14:27,988 --> 00:14:31,748 Speaker 1: consequential decisions of Deshaun Watson's career, and he has a 321 00:14:31,948 --> 00:14:34,468 Speaker 1: no trade cost, so in the end he does get 322 00:14:34,508 --> 00:14:36,388 Speaker 1: to have a lot of say in where he goes 323 00:14:36,428 --> 00:14:38,828 Speaker 1: to play football at that point time and beyond General 324 00:14:38,828 --> 00:14:41,988 Speaker 1: manager nickos serial to complete this trade. But still what 325 00:14:42,108 --> 00:14:45,428 Speaker 1: wway today is the decision by Deshaun Watson where is 326 00:14:45,468 --> 00:14:47,748 Speaker 1: he going to play football in twenty twenty two and 327 00:14:47,868 --> 00:14:52,148 Speaker 1: beyond Ian Meanwhile, Baker Mayfield's agent contacted the Browns on 328 00:14:52,268 --> 00:14:56,468 Speaker 1: Thursday and formally requested a trade. This in the aftermath 329 00:14:56,548 --> 00:15:00,668 Speaker 1: of Cleveland's very public and failed pursuit of Deshaun Watson. 330 00:15:00,708 --> 00:15:03,748 Speaker 1: Now the team has told Mayfield through his agent that 331 00:15:03,788 --> 00:15:07,348 Speaker 1: they will not accommodate that request. However, that's pretty common. 332 00:15:07,388 --> 00:15:09,308 Speaker 1: Of course. The Texans said they would never trade de 333 00:15:09,388 --> 00:15:12,188 Speaker 1: John Watson. The Seahawks insisted they were not going to 334 00:15:12,228 --> 00:15:15,188 Speaker 1: trade Russell Wilson. The team even reached out to Mayfield 335 00:15:15,268 --> 00:15:18,348 Speaker 1: and said team officials, including owner Jimmy Haslin, would fly 336 00:15:18,468 --> 00:15:21,428 Speaker 1: to Austin, Texas and try to figure out a path forward. 337 00:15:21,828 --> 00:15:25,148 Speaker 1: In Mayfield's mind, that bridge has already burned and it 338 00:15:25,308 --> 00:15:29,028 Speaker 1: is time for everyone to move forward. It appears increasingly 339 00:15:29,148 --> 00:15:32,788 Speaker 1: likely that Mayfield and the Browns are headed for a divorce, 340 00:15:32,908 --> 00:15:35,788 Speaker 1: just fourteen months after the former number one overall pick 341 00:15:35,948 --> 00:15:38,908 Speaker 1: led the team to its first playoff win in decades. 342 00:15:38,988 --> 00:15:40,988 Speaker 1: Ian Tom a little bit of news this morning as 343 00:15:40,988 --> 00:15:44,308 Speaker 1: well for the recent Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 344 00:15:44,428 --> 00:15:48,988 Speaker 1: Sources say Logan Ryan, the former Giants defensive captain and 345 00:15:49,148 --> 00:15:53,148 Speaker 1: do everything safety, it's expected to join his old friend 346 00:15:53,228 --> 00:15:55,988 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the Bucks now. The two time Super 347 00:15:55,988 --> 00:15:58,748 Speaker 1: Bowl champion was recently released by the Giants, and this 348 00:15:58,908 --> 00:16:02,148 Speaker 1: happened real quick. He also has a ton of guaranteed 349 00:16:02,148 --> 00:16:04,868 Speaker 1: money still from the Giants, boarn and five million dollars 350 00:16:04,868 --> 00:16:08,988 Speaker 1: inconsequential here most important thing for Logan Ryan, he feels 351 00:16:08,988 --> 00:16:11,628 Speaker 1: a big void for these blocks. Of course, they lost 352 00:16:11,668 --> 00:16:14,628 Speaker 1: Jordan Whitehead and they get a huge, huge leader on 353 00:16:14,708 --> 00:16:17,828 Speaker 1: the secondary. Another big free agent move for Tampa. Thank 354 00:16:17,868 --> 00:16:19,548 Speaker 1: you so much. Ian Tom pollis here. We're gonna talk 355 00:16:19,588 --> 00:16:21,708 Speaker 1: about this Baker news though. This Tree, I just I'm 356 00:16:21,748 --> 00:16:24,428 Speaker 1: worried about him. Who's advising in what his future is? 357 00:16:24,468 --> 00:16:26,748 Speaker 1: So I forced the question yesterday what is the market 358 00:16:26,828 --> 00:16:28,868 Speaker 1: for Baker Mayford what can that look like? And now 359 00:16:28,868 --> 00:16:31,308 Speaker 1: we have this mess and you called it trake. You 360 00:16:31,308 --> 00:16:33,628 Speaker 1: can't put the toothpaste back into the tube. Why is 361 00:16:33,628 --> 00:16:35,708 Speaker 1: he putting this out there? The Deshaun Watson move might 362 00:16:35,748 --> 00:16:38,428 Speaker 1: not happen, and it is not. So we'll start with you, though, Kyle, 363 00:16:38,468 --> 00:16:39,748 Speaker 1: What do you make of it? I can't even sit 364 00:16:39,788 --> 00:16:42,668 Speaker 1: in my chair. It's so awkward. I'm cringing. Awkward. Yeah, 365 00:16:42,708 --> 00:16:46,308 Speaker 1: it's awk' So let's let's recap here. They go after 366 00:16:46,388 --> 00:16:49,548 Speaker 1: Deshaun and a rebuff. So the man sheets on his wife. 367 00:16:49,628 --> 00:16:52,348 Speaker 1: He takes the woman to Tahiti and the over the 368 00:16:52,348 --> 00:16:54,468 Speaker 1: water bungalows and we're gonna have a beautiful family together. 369 00:16:54,468 --> 00:16:56,308 Speaker 1: We're gonna restart our lives. And she's like, no, I 370 00:16:56,348 --> 00:16:58,228 Speaker 1: have other men. I'm not interested in you. You go 371 00:16:58,308 --> 00:17:00,548 Speaker 1: back to your wife and say I love you. Let's 372 00:17:00,548 --> 00:17:02,308 Speaker 1: patch it up. Your wife says, no, no, no no, no, no, 373 00:17:02,468 --> 00:17:04,308 Speaker 1: I can't trust you ever again. I want a divorce. 374 00:17:04,668 --> 00:17:06,268 Speaker 1: You can't have one. What do you mean I can't 375 00:17:06,308 --> 00:17:08,708 Speaker 1: have one? That's where we are, and that is awful. 376 00:17:08,948 --> 00:17:12,308 Speaker 1: Is there any scenario by which the Browns say we 377 00:17:12,388 --> 00:17:14,828 Speaker 1: need you next year? We actually we changed our mind 378 00:17:14,868 --> 00:17:17,868 Speaker 1: we're looking through our rolodex here and we didn't get 379 00:17:17,868 --> 00:17:19,348 Speaker 1: to Sean, and we're not really in love with anybody 380 00:17:19,388 --> 00:17:20,828 Speaker 1: else or not love with us. Baker, you gotta play 381 00:17:20,868 --> 00:17:23,668 Speaker 1: one more year because you know we've been down this road. 382 00:17:23,708 --> 00:17:25,748 Speaker 1: We saw the Dolphins do it with Tua and then 383 00:17:25,748 --> 00:17:27,908 Speaker 1: Twa came back and played some pretty good football. That's 384 00:17:27,908 --> 00:17:30,788 Speaker 1: actually what I'm hoping for, because if I look at 385 00:17:30,788 --> 00:17:32,468 Speaker 1: Baker and I sat him down, would give him some 386 00:17:32,508 --> 00:17:35,028 Speaker 1: tough love. I'd say, look, Deshaun Watson is better than you. Dude. 387 00:17:35,028 --> 00:17:36,708 Speaker 1: They went after him. They got a business to run, 388 00:17:36,788 --> 00:17:39,628 Speaker 1: they didn't get them. You're under contract. Your whole deal 389 00:17:39,668 --> 00:17:41,948 Speaker 1: has been about going against people who slight you or 390 00:17:41,988 --> 00:17:44,228 Speaker 1: doubt you. Now your own team is doing it. Play 391 00:17:44,228 --> 00:17:46,628 Speaker 1: a double middle finger season against your own team and 392 00:17:46,668 --> 00:17:49,988 Speaker 1: ownership and then cash in. It's probably too awkward to 393 00:17:50,028 --> 00:17:51,668 Speaker 1: do that. You know what, though, guys, what is it 394 00:17:51,748 --> 00:17:55,788 Speaker 1: March eighteen off? There's so long until kickoff. The idea 395 00:17:55,828 --> 00:17:58,908 Speaker 1: that it's done nonsense. We've seen way too much ground 396 00:17:58,948 --> 00:18:00,548 Speaker 1: made up in too many other places. And if the 397 00:18:00,588 --> 00:18:02,748 Speaker 1: Browns don't fall in love with another quarterback, then you 398 00:18:02,828 --> 00:18:04,268 Speaker 1: bring Baker back, and you hope you get the twenty 399 00:18:04,228 --> 00:18:06,428 Speaker 1: two any version and it's an all time front row 400 00:18:06,468 --> 00:18:09,308 Speaker 1: awkward fest, but we have about five months to figure 401 00:18:09,308 --> 00:18:12,268 Speaker 1: that out. Do you think Daniel Jones is in the 402 00:18:12,308 --> 00:18:14,988 Speaker 1: same caliber as Baker Mayfield or they're kind of think 403 00:18:15,028 --> 00:18:17,628 Speaker 1: Baker's better, Baker's better. Do you think let's go through 404 00:18:17,668 --> 00:18:20,708 Speaker 1: some other guys and we've gotten that tier Jalen Hurts? Yeah, 405 00:18:20,748 --> 00:18:22,908 Speaker 1: do you think Jalen Hurts is Like it's a good question. 406 00:18:23,108 --> 00:18:26,028 Speaker 1: This is why I say this because the Browns and 407 00:18:26,108 --> 00:18:29,068 Speaker 1: they still did it. They were like, we're still gonna other. 408 00:18:29,188 --> 00:18:31,268 Speaker 1: Like the Giants didn't say let's let's meet and we're 409 00:18:31,268 --> 00:18:32,828 Speaker 1: not let's meet with de Chanel. They wouldn't do it 410 00:18:32,828 --> 00:18:34,828 Speaker 1: because they're like, Daniel Jones our guy this year. The 411 00:18:34,868 --> 00:18:37,228 Speaker 1: Eagles didn't do it because they're like, for now, Jalen 412 00:18:37,308 --> 00:18:39,228 Speaker 1: Hurts is our guy. But shouldn't they have Maybe maybe 413 00:18:39,228 --> 00:18:40,948 Speaker 1: they would have said yes and then they have maybe. 414 00:18:41,028 --> 00:18:44,428 Speaker 1: But the Browns are basically like Baker. Like that tells 415 00:18:44,468 --> 00:18:47,148 Speaker 1: me a lot that they like weren't so concerned. They 416 00:18:47,228 --> 00:18:49,188 Speaker 1: knew Baker would be in his feelings, they knew Baker 417 00:18:49,188 --> 00:18:52,068 Speaker 1: would be emotional. Tells me how they feel about Baker 418 00:18:52,108 --> 00:18:53,868 Speaker 1: as the future of their quarterback, that they would even 419 00:18:53,908 --> 00:18:56,468 Speaker 1: go down this road knowing the emotional guy he is, 420 00:18:56,628 --> 00:18:59,108 Speaker 1: he wants a trade, demands a trade. You're not demanding anything, 421 00:18:59,308 --> 00:19:01,068 Speaker 1: you know, to them at this point, it's like, we'll 422 00:19:01,108 --> 00:19:02,588 Speaker 1: trade you. If we want to trade you, you should 423 00:19:02,588 --> 00:19:04,388 Speaker 1: be so honored if I'm gonna get it. I feel 424 00:19:04,508 --> 00:19:06,588 Speaker 1: like this is way down the road with all these guys, 425 00:19:06,588 --> 00:19:08,828 Speaker 1: and yeah, if they don't get someone to upgrade from 426 00:19:08,828 --> 00:19:10,948 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield at this point, it makes for a very 427 00:19:10,988 --> 00:19:13,508 Speaker 1: awkward situation. But I also feel like they'll go to 428 00:19:13,548 --> 00:19:15,948 Speaker 1: bed knowing we had to explore to Shaun Watson, like 429 00:19:15,988 --> 00:19:17,588 Speaker 1: we had to do it, and they'll live with that. 430 00:19:17,628 --> 00:19:19,708 Speaker 1: And if it's a little awkward and it's a Baker's 431 00:19:19,748 --> 00:19:21,468 Speaker 1: still playing for a contract, whether it be for the 432 00:19:21,468 --> 00:19:23,908 Speaker 1: Browns or someone else. I look at Trubisky's final year 433 00:19:23,908 --> 00:19:26,588 Speaker 1: in Chicago. He knew when they didn't pick up that 434 00:19:26,588 --> 00:19:28,788 Speaker 1: fifth year option that he probably wasn't the guy. But 435 00:19:28,988 --> 00:19:30,668 Speaker 1: you finish out the string, you do your best, you 436 00:19:30,668 --> 00:19:32,508 Speaker 1: take your team to the playoffs. I just I just 437 00:19:32,588 --> 00:19:34,188 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like, there's a lot of ways 438 00:19:34,188 --> 00:19:36,908 Speaker 1: this could have gone. And for Baker, you're still into contract. 439 00:19:36,908 --> 00:19:39,268 Speaker 1: You get paid to play. Could you go out and 440 00:19:39,268 --> 00:19:42,308 Speaker 1: do your thing? And if you're traded, maybe you're the 441 00:19:42,348 --> 00:19:45,628 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts quarterback next year, maybe the Seattle Seahawks quarterback 442 00:19:45,628 --> 00:19:49,588 Speaker 1: next year. Great, but don't demand trades and write Instagram things. 443 00:19:49,628 --> 00:19:52,268 Speaker 1: I just to I just look at it that way 444 00:19:52,268 --> 00:19:53,828 Speaker 1: and say, there's a lot of other ways this could 445 00:19:53,828 --> 00:19:57,028 Speaker 1: be handled. But like demanding a trade, take a second, 446 00:19:57,148 --> 00:19:59,268 Speaker 1: take a deep breath, looking for the Baker. Sure, I 447 00:19:59,348 --> 00:20:01,628 Speaker 1: know it's not Baker. And maybe a lot of people 448 00:20:01,628 --> 00:20:03,948 Speaker 1: are saying the Browns did him wrong. I think they 449 00:20:04,068 --> 00:20:09,308 Speaker 1: knew time it was, and it was by talking to Sean. Yeah, 450 00:20:09,348 --> 00:20:12,388 Speaker 1: and the Giant didn't because they might think a little 451 00:20:12,468 --> 00:20:14,508 Speaker 1: higher if Daniel Jones, maybe because the Giants never win 452 00:20:14,588 --> 00:20:17,068 Speaker 1: and they haven't win anything in years. Perhaps this is 453 00:20:17,148 --> 00:20:19,948 Speaker 1: not the first time that Baker has stamped the flag 454 00:20:20,028 --> 00:20:22,228 Speaker 1: in the sand, so to speak, and say, look, this 455 00:20:22,308 --> 00:20:24,148 Speaker 1: is this is where I'm at. And I think for Baker, 456 00:20:24,228 --> 00:20:26,108 Speaker 1: look he's trying to be proactive and trying to grab 457 00:20:26,108 --> 00:20:28,428 Speaker 1: control this thing, even though to your point, Shreks, there 458 00:20:28,468 --> 00:20:30,708 Speaker 1: is no control there. Kyle. I'm with you. That there's 459 00:20:30,748 --> 00:20:33,708 Speaker 1: so much time right now here, and there's time before 460 00:20:33,908 --> 00:20:36,868 Speaker 1: the draft, there's time before training camp starts. This is 461 00:20:36,908 --> 00:20:39,828 Speaker 1: all about repairing the relationship. To me, there's one guy 462 00:20:39,948 --> 00:20:42,548 Speaker 1: that can repair this relationship, and it's Kevin Stefanski. And 463 00:20:42,788 --> 00:20:44,428 Speaker 1: you kind of go back and look at what Kevin 464 00:20:44,428 --> 00:20:47,188 Speaker 1: Stefanski has said about Baker at the end of the season. 465 00:20:47,868 --> 00:20:50,428 Speaker 1: During the season. During the season, Baker's hanging, you know, 466 00:20:50,628 --> 00:20:52,788 Speaker 1: hanging by a thread. He's in the training room, he's 467 00:20:52,868 --> 00:20:55,188 Speaker 1: all ice backed up, and he's talking about, man, dude, 468 00:20:55,228 --> 00:20:58,348 Speaker 1: Baker is going to fight, scratch, kick and crawl to 469 00:20:58,348 --> 00:21:00,868 Speaker 1: get onto this field and play like that's the kind 470 00:21:00,908 --> 00:21:03,148 Speaker 1: of competitor who is. Kevin stood up for him, and 471 00:21:03,148 --> 00:21:05,068 Speaker 1: he stood by him. And when you hear all those things, 472 00:21:05,108 --> 00:21:07,788 Speaker 1: those raving reviews about them, and it's like, Okay, Baker, 473 00:21:07,788 --> 00:21:09,588 Speaker 1: your coach is saying this about you. Well, now's your 474 00:21:09,628 --> 00:21:12,108 Speaker 1: chance to kick and crawl and fight, like all right, 475 00:21:12,148 --> 00:21:14,788 Speaker 1: so what so you've got your feelings hurt and you 476 00:21:14,828 --> 00:21:17,788 Speaker 1: know what, they looked at another quarterback. They're saying that, no, 477 00:21:17,908 --> 00:21:20,188 Speaker 1: you're a quarterback. Now, okay, go fight your way out 478 00:21:20,188 --> 00:21:22,988 Speaker 1: of this situation. Rub the eye black on there, get 479 00:21:22,988 --> 00:21:25,108 Speaker 1: it going, pump the hike music, and let's go. I 480 00:21:25,108 --> 00:21:27,388 Speaker 1: think for Kevin Stefanski, the conversations are going to be 481 00:21:27,428 --> 00:21:29,668 Speaker 1: interesting because it can really be Look, Baker, I was 482 00:21:29,708 --> 00:21:31,668 Speaker 1: in your corner of the entire time, but my hand 483 00:21:31,748 --> 00:21:34,068 Speaker 1: was forced. There's a lot going on in our division. 484 00:21:34,068 --> 00:21:36,668 Speaker 1: We've got a lot of explosive players coming that we're 485 00:21:36,668 --> 00:21:38,868 Speaker 1: playing up against. From the top, there may have been 486 00:21:38,868 --> 00:21:41,388 Speaker 1: pressure to go and try to get somebody splash here, 487 00:21:41,468 --> 00:21:43,948 Speaker 1: somebody secure. When they drafted Baker number one overall, Cleveland 488 00:21:44,028 --> 00:21:46,348 Speaker 1: was rocking the city. The hype train was there. There 489 00:21:46,388 --> 00:21:48,788 Speaker 1: may have been a movement to make that happen. So 490 00:21:48,908 --> 00:21:51,308 Speaker 1: for Stefanski, he can come to Baker and just look. 491 00:21:51,388 --> 00:21:53,948 Speaker 1: I think that's going to be the bridge that builds 492 00:21:53,988 --> 00:21:56,148 Speaker 1: this back, if there is an opportunity to build that bridge. 493 00:21:56,148 --> 00:21:57,708 Speaker 1: But the other thing, too, is if you want Baker 494 00:21:57,708 --> 00:22:00,028 Speaker 1: to be your quarterback, soign to an extension that make 495 00:22:00,108 --> 00:22:02,428 Speaker 1: Baker happy real quick, all of a a sudden, here's my 496 00:22:02,428 --> 00:22:05,108 Speaker 1: commitment to you. All right, honey, we're forces not on 497 00:22:05,108 --> 00:22:07,988 Speaker 1: the table. What do you want? What you want? What 498 00:22:08,468 --> 00:22:10,748 Speaker 1: you want? A new car? We're gonna get that rings. 499 00:22:11,108 --> 00:22:13,428 Speaker 1: How do you want a new coda. These antics, this 500 00:22:13,548 --> 00:22:16,268 Speaker 1: emotional reaction that's like not understanding that it's a business. 501 00:22:16,308 --> 00:22:18,068 Speaker 1: This like he's here where he is because of how 502 00:22:18,068 --> 00:22:20,828 Speaker 1: he is and these is like amazing behavior and whatever, 503 00:22:20,908 --> 00:22:22,948 Speaker 1: how how he is who he is. Can you defend that? 504 00:22:22,988 --> 00:22:24,948 Speaker 1: At this point? I think, yeah, if he if he wins, 505 00:22:25,068 --> 00:22:26,228 Speaker 1: you know, I mean I think there are some people 506 00:22:26,228 --> 00:22:29,028 Speaker 1: out there that think he's got some punk like attitudes 507 00:22:29,148 --> 00:22:31,228 Speaker 1: and some and well, at what point does to fancy? 508 00:22:31,268 --> 00:22:33,308 Speaker 1: I don't see any other players coming out and defending him. 509 00:22:33,308 --> 00:22:35,108 Speaker 1: So at what point does he hurt himself in the 510 00:22:35,108 --> 00:22:37,188 Speaker 1: locker room and then that team if he keeps defending 511 00:22:37,188 --> 00:22:39,268 Speaker 1: and protecting Baker like he does, I don't think you 512 00:22:39,348 --> 00:22:42,548 Speaker 1: protect him in the locker room. Look like, look, you're you're, you're, 513 00:22:42,628 --> 00:22:45,948 Speaker 1: you're as expendable as anybody else. We just proved that. Like, look, 514 00:22:46,108 --> 00:22:48,468 Speaker 1: how you respond to that is huge. It's gonna speak volumes. 515 00:22:48,468 --> 00:22:49,988 Speaker 1: You've got to earn your keep just like everybody else. 516 00:22:50,028 --> 00:22:52,028 Speaker 1: You're not untouchable. And so I think that how Kevin 517 00:22:52,068 --> 00:22:54,148 Speaker 1: handles that is a big part of this because yeah, 518 00:22:54,188 --> 00:22:55,508 Speaker 1: to your point, the locker room, it's like, all right, 519 00:22:55,788 --> 00:22:57,788 Speaker 1: are you gonna baby him now or no, I just 520 00:22:57,828 --> 00:23:00,268 Speaker 1: worry about Baker because so you're Peter, you could not 521 00:23:00,348 --> 00:23:02,828 Speaker 1: have said it better, like, this is a business, you 522 00:23:02,908 --> 00:23:05,908 Speaker 1: have one year left, You're getting paid eighteen million dollars. 523 00:23:05,948 --> 00:23:08,228 Speaker 1: I don't know who is advising you, who's around you 524 00:23:08,348 --> 00:23:10,468 Speaker 1: saying you're going to get more somewhere else, It's going 525 00:23:10,508 --> 00:23:13,228 Speaker 1: to be better somewhere else. Proof just ride that out. 526 00:23:13,548 --> 00:23:15,828 Speaker 1: You making it public and so ugly as not doing 527 00:23:15,868 --> 00:23:19,148 Speaker 1: you any favors in anything. And if I'm the Browns, like, 528 00:23:19,188 --> 00:23:21,348 Speaker 1: at a certain point there's a level of talent and 529 00:23:21,428 --> 00:23:23,348 Speaker 1: winning and all that that doesn't match the headache, and 530 00:23:23,388 --> 00:23:25,548 Speaker 1: you have to sort of gauge that and figure it out. 531 00:23:25,588 --> 00:23:27,988 Speaker 1: And at some point you might say, Jimmy G's a winner, 532 00:23:28,028 --> 00:23:29,908 Speaker 1: a better fit people like, and people always talk about 533 00:23:29,948 --> 00:23:31,228 Speaker 1: him as a leader in the locker room. And we 534 00:23:31,308 --> 00:23:33,588 Speaker 1: figured out and make that move. Where does that leave Baker? 535 00:23:33,628 --> 00:23:35,268 Speaker 1: I don't know what the market is. Are the Colts 536 00:23:35,268 --> 00:23:37,708 Speaker 1: gonna sign up for Baker? I honestly don't know. And 537 00:23:37,708 --> 00:23:40,028 Speaker 1: that's why I was asking what the tone is around 538 00:23:40,068 --> 00:23:43,388 Speaker 1: to just I don't know. I'll say your butt off 539 00:23:43,428 --> 00:23:45,828 Speaker 1: and then and then go get broke off. And for agency, 540 00:23:45,908 --> 00:23:48,068 Speaker 1: like every other quarterback in this weration does yeah like 541 00:23:48,188 --> 00:23:50,428 Speaker 1: you think you should. And Matt Ryan isn't the same 542 00:23:50,428 --> 00:23:52,628 Speaker 1: exact vote as Baker. Mayfield. I haven't heard of Pete 543 00:23:53,268 --> 00:23:55,668 Speaker 1: Baker wants to trade the Browns, saying not so much. 544 00:23:55,748 --> 00:23:58,708 Speaker 1: Who've got risky conversations. We've got shot Carson Wentz and 545 00:23:58,748 --> 00:24:01,108 Speaker 1: that outfit will sells on the West coast of the news. 546 00:24:01,148 --> 00:24:05,708 Speaker 1: What's up? Quarterback Mitchell Trabisky on his third team and 547 00:24:05,828 --> 00:24:08,148 Speaker 1: three years after signing a two year deal with the 548 00:24:08,268 --> 00:24:11,548 Speaker 1: Steelers they'll take over for the retired beat Roethlisberger, and 549 00:24:11,588 --> 00:24:14,908 Speaker 1: told reporters on Thursday he thinks Pittsburgh is a great 550 00:24:15,268 --> 00:24:17,908 Speaker 1: fit for him. My goal throughout free agency was find 551 00:24:17,908 --> 00:24:19,708 Speaker 1: a way to get back onto the field and go 552 00:24:19,748 --> 00:24:22,468 Speaker 1: into a situation where I could earn a starting job 553 00:24:22,708 --> 00:24:24,668 Speaker 1: and use my talent on the field. So when the 554 00:24:24,708 --> 00:24:28,308 Speaker 1: opportunity arose to play for a coach Thomlin and where 555 00:24:28,308 --> 00:24:31,468 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers uniform, I was so excited. And I'm 556 00:24:31,468 --> 00:24:33,468 Speaker 1: in a situation where I have to prove myself back 557 00:24:33,468 --> 00:24:35,148 Speaker 1: on the field, and that's what I'm looking forward to do. 558 00:24:35,308 --> 00:24:38,308 Speaker 1: You're always betting on yourself in that sense, and I 559 00:24:38,348 --> 00:24:40,428 Speaker 1: definitely am in this case. So I'm just lucky to 560 00:24:40,468 --> 00:24:42,908 Speaker 1: land in a situation in Pittsburgh. I'm looking forward to 561 00:24:43,028 --> 00:24:45,388 Speaker 1: playing for the city and this coaching staff and being 562 00:24:45,388 --> 00:24:47,028 Speaker 1: a part of this great culture. Yeah, you got a 563 00:24:47,028 --> 00:24:49,828 Speaker 1: bet on yourself, and just trust what you're capable of. 564 00:24:50,508 --> 00:24:53,228 Speaker 1: Trubisky is saying that he did a lot of research 565 00:24:53,348 --> 00:24:56,948 Speaker 1: to see how he would fit into the Steelers offense 566 00:24:57,028 --> 00:25:00,868 Speaker 1: and said he got rave reviews from coaches and players alikes. 567 00:25:00,908 --> 00:25:03,628 Speaker 1: We'll see what he makes of this opportunity. But kay, 568 00:25:03,628 --> 00:25:06,788 Speaker 1: I know you are not here for Trubisky slander. You 569 00:25:06,828 --> 00:25:11,188 Speaker 1: have said death taxes and you defending Mitchell Trubis. Correct, 570 00:25:11,348 --> 00:25:13,428 Speaker 1: That's what it's been all about, especially over the last 571 00:25:13,468 --> 00:25:15,908 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I think he's a good player. I 572 00:25:15,948 --> 00:25:18,988 Speaker 1: think he's underrated. I think he's a victim of the 573 00:25:19,188 --> 00:25:21,548 Speaker 1: draft shaft, as I like to call it. Thanks so much, 574 00:25:21,588 --> 00:25:24,268 Speaker 1: we'll salve appreciate you when it comes to expectations. Do 575 00:25:24,348 --> 00:25:26,868 Speaker 1: I think they're a super Bowl contender? No, I'm going 576 00:25:26,908 --> 00:25:28,468 Speaker 1: to use a phrase that I like to use in 577 00:25:28,508 --> 00:25:31,348 Speaker 1: the mix, Pittsburgh will be in the mix. I'm talking 578 00:25:31,428 --> 00:25:34,748 Speaker 1: playoff appearance contending for that, but Super Bowl contender. I 579 00:25:34,788 --> 00:25:36,348 Speaker 1: don't know that I can say that, though this table 580 00:25:36,388 --> 00:25:38,468 Speaker 1: thought that Micheal Trubisky was an upgrade on the big 581 00:25:38,468 --> 00:25:41,108 Speaker 1: bend that we saw last year. At guys expectations for 582 00:25:41,188 --> 00:25:43,508 Speaker 1: the Steelers with this move in twenty twenty two, I 583 00:25:43,508 --> 00:25:46,228 Speaker 1: think the expectations are, you know, they're going to run 584 00:25:46,308 --> 00:25:48,468 Speaker 1: it a lot with nausea and not ask Mitch to 585 00:25:48,508 --> 00:25:50,188 Speaker 1: do too much. You run around and make a few 586 00:25:50,188 --> 00:25:52,548 Speaker 1: plays and maybe that will be it. The hope, and 587 00:25:52,628 --> 00:25:54,428 Speaker 1: that what the Steelers fans are looking at in the 588 00:25:54,468 --> 00:25:57,748 Speaker 1: Steelers organization is like the sins of Trubisky fall on 589 00:25:57,748 --> 00:26:00,148 Speaker 1: the Bears and that he was a top ten pick 590 00:26:00,308 --> 00:26:02,188 Speaker 1: and he does have that much talent and he is 591 00:26:02,228 --> 00:26:03,828 Speaker 1: that hard of a worker, and he should have been 592 00:26:03,908 --> 00:26:06,628 Speaker 1: drafted or two overall and they actually can channel that 593 00:26:07,228 --> 00:26:09,148 Speaker 1: and that it was a naggy issue and it was 594 00:26:09,188 --> 00:26:11,388 Speaker 1: the Bears, and there's a lot of people who still 595 00:26:11,388 --> 00:26:13,788 Speaker 1: feel that way. And the smoking gun in that equation 596 00:26:13,908 --> 00:26:15,828 Speaker 1: is how bad the Bears looked on offense last year 597 00:26:15,868 --> 00:26:18,108 Speaker 1: with this incredible young athlete justin feels they could do 598 00:26:18,188 --> 00:26:20,868 Speaker 1: nothing and everyone's like, see, see, it wasn't Mitch. What's 599 00:26:20,908 --> 00:26:22,628 Speaker 1: really going to come and set this table for this 600 00:26:22,668 --> 00:26:25,068 Speaker 1: thing is the Steelers at the draft. If they don't 601 00:26:25,108 --> 00:26:27,468 Speaker 1: take a quarterback. Oh my god, they're really going with Mitch, 602 00:26:27,548 --> 00:26:29,628 Speaker 1: like for real, and they're gonna they're gonna flip with 603 00:26:29,668 --> 00:26:31,188 Speaker 1: that thing that they haven't had a losing record since 604 00:26:31,228 --> 00:26:35,748 Speaker 1: Tommy Maddox was their quarterback. Huge potential, still, great athleticism. 605 00:26:35,868 --> 00:26:38,068 Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by one thing with Mitch and the AFC North. 606 00:26:38,108 --> 00:26:39,988 Speaker 1: I want to see how tough he is because you 607 00:26:40,028 --> 00:26:41,548 Speaker 1: get the snot kicked out of you in that division. 608 00:26:41,588 --> 00:26:43,588 Speaker 1: If you see what Burrow had to go through last year, 609 00:26:43,668 --> 00:26:45,468 Speaker 1: what Ben had to go through for all those years. 610 00:26:45,468 --> 00:26:47,908 Speaker 1: Like when he gets absolutely planted in the first game 611 00:26:47,948 --> 00:26:49,988 Speaker 1: of his first drive as a Steelers quarterback, how quickly 612 00:26:49,988 --> 00:26:51,348 Speaker 1: does he get up, Because I think that is going 613 00:26:51,428 --> 00:26:53,268 Speaker 1: to tell the tale for his future. There, that and 614 00:26:53,388 --> 00:26:55,788 Speaker 1: the draft. Peter, I think Mike Tomlin as a coach 615 00:26:55,828 --> 00:26:58,188 Speaker 1: that everyone wants to play for. I think the Steelers 616 00:26:58,228 --> 00:27:00,868 Speaker 1: are an incredible organization with great history and a great 617 00:27:00,868 --> 00:27:03,068 Speaker 1: track record of how they treat their players. And they 618 00:27:03,188 --> 00:27:06,388 Speaker 1: jumped out of the gates a quarterback frenzy and signed 619 00:27:06,388 --> 00:27:09,428 Speaker 1: Mitch trumm They didn't wait, they didn't talk to DeShawn Watson, 620 00:27:09,468 --> 00:27:12,108 Speaker 1: they didn't go big on Russell Wilson, they didn't explore 621 00:27:12,148 --> 00:27:15,508 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. The Steelers were like, no, they want a Fregancy. 622 00:27:15,548 --> 00:27:17,548 Speaker 1: We're signing Mitchell Trubisky. And I think a lot of 623 00:27:17,548 --> 00:27:21,588 Speaker 1: people are like, why no, Jimmy Garoppo, No, Jamis Winston, Oh, 624 00:27:21,748 --> 00:27:24,228 Speaker 1: Cam Newton, none of it? Like it says a lot. 625 00:27:24,868 --> 00:27:27,028 Speaker 1: I also think he was really good in his press conference, 626 00:27:27,068 --> 00:27:28,588 Speaker 1: as say, we saw a clip of it, but I 627 00:27:28,668 --> 00:27:30,748 Speaker 1: was talking about last year and he's like, I didn't 628 00:27:30,748 --> 00:27:32,508 Speaker 1: realize how much I needed that, And they're like, what 629 00:27:32,548 --> 00:27:34,468 Speaker 1: do you mean by that. He's like, I needed to 630 00:27:34,508 --> 00:27:39,668 Speaker 1: watch and observe and I needed to see and Josh Allen, 631 00:27:39,868 --> 00:27:42,868 Speaker 1: ironically enough, you know, it's the same age as him, 632 00:27:42,908 --> 00:27:45,268 Speaker 1: and yet Josh Allen, the way he carries himself and 633 00:27:45,348 --> 00:27:47,388 Speaker 1: the way he led his team, I think that's important. 634 00:27:47,428 --> 00:27:50,748 Speaker 1: I also didn't like the personal stuff. Trubisky coming to Chicago, 635 00:27:51,348 --> 00:27:54,548 Speaker 1: kid from Ohio, has one big breakout year at UNC 636 00:27:54,668 --> 00:27:57,188 Speaker 1: and has thrown into the Chicago media market. Now you 637 00:27:57,268 --> 00:27:59,548 Speaker 1: remove that a little bit in the year and Buffalo 638 00:27:59,548 --> 00:28:03,268 Speaker 1: in the background, he's married, his wife is pregnant, He's 639 00:28:03,308 --> 00:28:06,028 Speaker 1: in a different place in his life. There's a grown 640 00:28:06,068 --> 00:28:07,788 Speaker 1: up version of him, and I think, like, this is 641 00:28:07,828 --> 00:28:10,708 Speaker 1: a really cool job on a really cool team. I 642 00:28:10,708 --> 00:28:13,148 Speaker 1: would like to think that Mitchell Drubisky is now more 643 00:28:13,268 --> 00:28:15,188 Speaker 1: prepared to have success in this league than he was 644 00:28:15,348 --> 00:28:18,268 Speaker 1: those Bears years, and certainly last year in Buffalo ware, 645 00:28:18,268 --> 00:28:20,268 Speaker 1: he says himself, it was actually really good for him. 646 00:28:20,268 --> 00:28:22,188 Speaker 1: I think we get a different version of Mitch Drubisky, 647 00:28:22,588 --> 00:28:23,988 Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna be great for him. Is 648 00:28:23,988 --> 00:28:25,508 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be great for Pittsburgh When I 649 00:28:25,508 --> 00:28:27,588 Speaker 1: look at the Steelers, Look, they're not bringing Mitch in 650 00:28:27,628 --> 00:28:29,628 Speaker 1: there to throw the ball six hundred and fifty times 651 00:28:29,628 --> 00:28:32,028 Speaker 1: this season. Like they're bringing him in there to help 652 00:28:32,068 --> 00:28:34,548 Speaker 1: with the run game, make some big time throws, absolutely, 653 00:28:34,548 --> 00:28:37,588 Speaker 1: but not carry this offense the last time. All right, 654 00:28:37,628 --> 00:28:39,708 Speaker 1: So Ben Roethlisberger won a Super Bowl? Right? Did he 655 00:28:39,828 --> 00:28:42,748 Speaker 1: do it throwing the ball eight hundred times? When he 656 00:28:42,788 --> 00:28:44,508 Speaker 1: won his first one as a young quarterback, he was 657 00:28:44,548 --> 00:28:46,508 Speaker 1: handing them all off to the bus. It was a 658 00:28:46,548 --> 00:28:49,228 Speaker 1: big run game. And I think that's where my expectations 659 00:28:49,228 --> 00:28:51,748 Speaker 1: of Mitch and of this Pittsburgh steals offense. It makes 660 00:28:51,748 --> 00:28:53,908 Speaker 1: them better because it's gonna make this offense tougher. It's 661 00:28:53,908 --> 00:28:55,868 Speaker 1: going to get them back to that groundup pound we 662 00:28:55,948 --> 00:28:58,268 Speaker 1: started off with Kyle. It's look, we brought Naja Harris 663 00:28:58,268 --> 00:29:00,228 Speaker 1: here to tote the rock and to run the football. 664 00:29:00,268 --> 00:29:02,028 Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna get back to. We can't try 665 00:29:02,028 --> 00:29:04,188 Speaker 1: to keep up with Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson and 666 00:29:04,228 --> 00:29:06,588 Speaker 1: all these other guns in the AFC. We've got to 667 00:29:06,628 --> 00:29:08,308 Speaker 1: find a way to slowly get down a little bit 668 00:29:08,348 --> 00:29:10,508 Speaker 1: and get back to winning with great defense and run 669 00:29:10,588 --> 00:29:12,748 Speaker 1: form an opportunity to take the money that they saved 670 00:29:12,828 --> 00:29:14,748 Speaker 1: with adding Mitch to sort of add to the rest 671 00:29:14,788 --> 00:29:30,708 Speaker 1: of their roster. Welcome in a good morning for love 672 00:29:30,708 --> 00:29:33,428 Speaker 1: you wrote, Love you wrote, Last Dance. It's sober. Rogers 673 00:29:33,588 --> 00:29:35,748 Speaker 1: Adams go in separate ways. We're in New York City 674 00:29:35,788 --> 00:29:37,748 Speaker 1: to break it all down on this March eighteenth. What 675 00:29:37,948 --> 00:29:40,388 Speaker 1: a free agency week. And there's still so many other 676 00:29:40,508 --> 00:29:42,708 Speaker 1: options on the board and trades that will be happening. 677 00:29:42,748 --> 00:29:47,428 Speaker 1: Force trades, demanded, trades happen. Why is it so dramatic 678 00:29:47,548 --> 00:29:50,788 Speaker 1: this year? So dramatic, It's so great. It is Peters trigger. 679 00:29:50,828 --> 00:29:54,228 Speaker 1: It's great seven Kyle Brant, this is Sean O'Hara. I'm 680 00:29:54,268 --> 00:29:56,108 Speaker 1: kay Adams. Welcome everyone. We've got so much to get to. 681 00:29:56,148 --> 00:29:58,268 Speaker 1: So let's kick it off at lead block. What's the 682 00:29:58,308 --> 00:30:00,988 Speaker 1: defund Adams trade mean for Aaron Rodgers and this packer 683 00:30:01,068 --> 00:30:03,028 Speaker 1: side of things as it looks this morning. Okay, So 684 00:30:03,068 --> 00:30:05,148 Speaker 1: now we're getting more of the information. And here's how 685 00:30:05,148 --> 00:30:06,548 Speaker 1: we look at it. If you're the packers, you had 686 00:30:06,548 --> 00:30:09,548 Speaker 1: two choices here. You could play chicken with Davante Adams 687 00:30:09,548 --> 00:30:11,468 Speaker 1: and his agent and wait this thing out for the 688 00:30:11,508 --> 00:30:13,428 Speaker 1: next four months, and in the process, you've got a 689 00:30:13,468 --> 00:30:16,428 Speaker 1: twenty million dollars cap hit sitting there that you can't 690 00:30:16,428 --> 00:30:19,508 Speaker 1: spend on other players. And it's four months of please 691 00:30:19,508 --> 00:30:21,508 Speaker 1: come back, please come back, please come back. We love you, 692 00:30:21,548 --> 00:30:23,108 Speaker 1: we love you, we love it, and it's exhausting and 693 00:30:23,108 --> 00:30:25,828 Speaker 1: it's exhausting, or it's rip the band aid off. Trade 694 00:30:25,868 --> 00:30:27,788 Speaker 1: them now and maybe the compensation doesn't wow you, but 695 00:30:27,828 --> 00:30:29,228 Speaker 1: you do get a first round pick. Do you get 696 00:30:29,228 --> 00:30:31,268 Speaker 1: a second round pick? And then you can use that 697 00:30:31,308 --> 00:30:33,868 Speaker 1: money that you were earmarked for Adams and say, okay, 698 00:30:33,908 --> 00:30:35,868 Speaker 1: let's go do something, and in the process you could 699 00:30:35,868 --> 00:30:37,788 Speaker 1: also trade for someone, So like, if I'm the Packers 700 00:30:37,868 --> 00:30:39,148 Speaker 1: right now, and I heard that they were kind of 701 00:30:39,148 --> 00:30:41,068 Speaker 1: sniffing around the market earlier this week, and I thought 702 00:30:41,068 --> 00:30:42,828 Speaker 1: that was odd because I'm like, well, yeah, Adams, and 703 00:30:42,868 --> 00:30:45,308 Speaker 1: I obviously dumb me. I didn't realize Adam was on 704 00:30:45,348 --> 00:30:46,468 Speaker 1: the move. I was like, how are you going to 705 00:30:46,508 --> 00:30:48,468 Speaker 1: fit another receiver in? But then you start thinking about 706 00:30:48,468 --> 00:30:49,988 Speaker 1: like who and what? So we saw that list of 707 00:30:49,988 --> 00:30:52,228 Speaker 1: those free agents. You also have the twenty second and 708 00:30:52,348 --> 00:30:54,668 Speaker 1: the twenty eighth pick in the draft. Now, Rogers might 709 00:30:54,668 --> 00:30:56,788 Speaker 1: not be doing flips over a rookie wide receiver, but 710 00:30:56,868 --> 00:30:58,588 Speaker 1: let's say you get a receiver with one of those 711 00:30:58,628 --> 00:31:00,508 Speaker 1: all right, fine, so you get one of those young 712 00:31:00,548 --> 00:31:02,628 Speaker 1: guys with a twenty second, twentieth pick, and that could 713 00:31:02,628 --> 00:31:05,868 Speaker 1: be Drake London, that could Garrett Willson, that could be whoever. 714 00:31:05,868 --> 00:31:07,868 Speaker 1: It is fine, so you have a rookie, but would 715 00:31:07,908 --> 00:31:11,428 Speaker 1: you not consider looking elsewhere than justin ferns? Like Robert 716 00:31:11,428 --> 00:31:14,868 Speaker 1: Woods coming off the injury. I like, he's a cow guy. 717 00:31:15,308 --> 00:31:16,908 Speaker 1: Look at some of these older like do you not 718 00:31:16,988 --> 00:31:19,348 Speaker 1: make a call to the LA Chargers and say, what's 719 00:31:19,428 --> 00:31:22,588 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen's value? Like can we get Keenan Allen. You 720 00:31:22,588 --> 00:31:24,508 Speaker 1: start not looking at like guys like that who might 721 00:31:24,548 --> 00:31:26,508 Speaker 1: not be in the top five wide receiver group. But 722 00:31:26,588 --> 00:31:28,748 Speaker 1: if you're doing a list from like five to fifteen, 723 00:31:29,028 --> 00:31:31,468 Speaker 1: which veterans are out there, because you don't want just 724 00:31:31,708 --> 00:31:34,388 Speaker 1: neophyte guys, you don't want a young guys to go. 725 00:31:34,668 --> 00:31:37,028 Speaker 1: Amari Rodgers is not going to turn into Davante Adams 726 00:31:37,068 --> 00:31:38,988 Speaker 1: this year. I assure you that we complete the cow 727 00:31:39,028 --> 00:31:40,988 Speaker 1: thing and do DeShawn Jackson too. He's always bring to 728 00:31:40,988 --> 00:31:43,068 Speaker 1: Shawn Jackson. And that's a paid guy. I mean, Will 729 00:31:43,108 --> 00:31:47,108 Speaker 1: Fuller is always available. We should always there. But Jarvis 730 00:31:47,148 --> 00:31:49,388 Speaker 1: Landry's a legitimate guy like that's a guy who's been 731 00:31:49,388 --> 00:31:51,868 Speaker 1: around the league and can can run round. Yeah, those 732 00:31:51,908 --> 00:31:54,188 Speaker 1: rebuilding What do you do Metcalf? Do you call for 733 00:31:54,268 --> 00:31:55,988 Speaker 1: Metcalf or Lockett? Do you at least put I mean 734 00:31:56,028 --> 00:31:58,148 Speaker 1: John Schneider spent most of his career in Green Bay. 735 00:31:58,148 --> 00:32:02,548 Speaker 1: Do you call your old bosses and say, hey, Leo 736 00:32:02,668 --> 00:32:05,468 Speaker 1: Jones is interesting. I don't know where he is. You 737 00:32:05,588 --> 00:32:08,468 Speaker 1: just you just won yourself essentially twenty eight million dollars 738 00:32:08,468 --> 00:32:11,348 Speaker 1: of free money now and yeah it doesn't go. And 739 00:32:11,468 --> 00:32:13,468 Speaker 1: here's the other thing, you're not hovered in this cloud 740 00:32:13,508 --> 00:32:15,428 Speaker 1: of like, oh my god, we're the first segment on 741 00:32:15,468 --> 00:32:17,348 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football again, and it's not Rogers as time. 742 00:32:17,508 --> 00:32:19,588 Speaker 1: Now it's Adams. Like in a way, you rip the 743 00:32:19,588 --> 00:32:21,948 Speaker 1: band aid off, you say, let's move on and let's 744 00:32:21,948 --> 00:32:23,988 Speaker 1: see what we can get as opposed to being with 745 00:32:24,028 --> 00:32:26,068 Speaker 1: this guy who is all rolled. And I can't say 746 00:32:26,108 --> 00:32:28,028 Speaker 1: they're going to be better without Davanta Adams. I don't 747 00:32:28,068 --> 00:32:30,028 Speaker 1: think they will be. I think it's a huge loss, 748 00:32:30,108 --> 00:32:32,028 Speaker 1: but they might be better in the near term trying 749 00:32:32,028 --> 00:32:34,548 Speaker 1: to figure out their roster than having him saying, hey, 750 00:32:34,588 --> 00:32:36,028 Speaker 1: I don't want to be a packer and sitting there 751 00:32:36,068 --> 00:32:38,668 Speaker 1: on the roster on the books. Shureg's just never going away. 752 00:32:38,428 --> 00:32:41,028 Speaker 1: We start to end the show with Adams, just this 753 00:32:41,068 --> 00:32:44,268 Speaker 1: Adams right over here. So Davante is gonna be forever 754 00:32:44,308 --> 00:32:46,108 Speaker 1: linked to the show. I think when you look at 755 00:32:46,388 --> 00:32:48,828 Speaker 1: the fact that he got this unbelievable contract, the highest 756 00:32:48,828 --> 00:32:51,228 Speaker 1: paid non quarterback player in the NFL right now, Look, 757 00:32:51,268 --> 00:32:53,988 Speaker 1: it's not just because he was catching passes for you know, 758 00:32:54,188 --> 00:32:56,788 Speaker 1: for big yards and on third down. He got this 759 00:32:56,868 --> 00:33:00,828 Speaker 1: money because of the touchdowns sixty nine touchdowns Davante Adams 760 00:33:00,828 --> 00:33:03,108 Speaker 1: has a count of forces twenty sixteen. That's more than 761 00:33:03,148 --> 00:33:07,148 Speaker 1: any other player in the league. And fifty of those 762 00:33:07,188 --> 00:33:10,188 Speaker 1: touchdowns KB guess where they happen and the red zone 763 00:33:10,348 --> 00:33:12,868 Speaker 1: in the red ZONWN then So look, we're gonna talk 764 00:33:12,908 --> 00:33:14,828 Speaker 1: a lot about the off the field stuff, and you 765 00:33:14,868 --> 00:33:16,668 Speaker 1: know you're wearing the red shirt, so I look to 766 00:33:16,748 --> 00:33:19,548 Speaker 1: you for the red zone. Off the field stuff we're 767 00:33:19,548 --> 00:33:21,308 Speaker 1: gonna talk about, But it's the on the field stuff 768 00:33:21,588 --> 00:33:23,988 Speaker 1: that I'm most concerned about. With Aaron Rodgers, sure, I 769 00:33:23,988 --> 00:33:25,668 Speaker 1: think Julio Jones would be a great addition. You know 770 00:33:25,668 --> 00:33:27,948 Speaker 1: where he disappears in the red zone, right Look the 771 00:33:27,988 --> 00:33:31,748 Speaker 1: red zone with Davante Adams with fifty touchdowns, that's twenty 772 00:33:31,748 --> 00:33:33,708 Speaker 1: more than the next person on that list right there, 773 00:33:34,028 --> 00:33:35,748 Speaker 1: if my math was correct, a lot of touchdowns and 774 00:33:35,868 --> 00:33:39,228 Speaker 1: make up for it. We're the same that relationship. It's 775 00:33:39,268 --> 00:33:41,348 Speaker 1: not just about DeVante Adams running a great route and 776 00:33:41,348 --> 00:33:44,108 Speaker 1: being open. No, it's it's timing, it's windows, it's it's 777 00:33:44,588 --> 00:33:46,988 Speaker 1: understanding where you're gonna be. I'm expecting you to be 778 00:33:47,068 --> 00:33:49,348 Speaker 1: here or I'm in trouble. I know exactly where you're 779 00:33:49,348 --> 00:33:51,268 Speaker 1: gonna go. I give you the little eyeball head thing 780 00:33:51,428 --> 00:33:54,788 Speaker 1: and go this way, go down like that. That doesn't 781 00:33:54,788 --> 00:33:56,908 Speaker 1: just happen overnight. You can't put that in the microwave 782 00:33:56,948 --> 00:33:58,788 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden it's ready in week one. Yeah, 783 00:33:59,188 --> 00:34:01,948 Speaker 1: it takes time. And Aaron Rodgers has done this before, right. 784 00:34:01,908 --> 00:34:04,068 Speaker 1: We seen when he came into the league as the starter. 785 00:34:04,588 --> 00:34:06,428 Speaker 1: When he took over for Far, he had Driver and 786 00:34:06,548 --> 00:34:08,388 Speaker 1: he you know, I went from Driver to Jennings, anyone, 787 00:34:08,428 --> 00:34:10,668 Speaker 1: to James Jones and then to Jordy. So he's he's 788 00:34:10,708 --> 00:34:13,388 Speaker 1: really done a good job of making these wide receivers 789 00:34:13,428 --> 00:34:15,268 Speaker 1: even better. But I just I don't know if he 790 00:34:15,268 --> 00:34:18,388 Speaker 1: can do that. I like that you mentioned that twenty 791 00:34:18,388 --> 00:34:19,708 Speaker 1: ten I went back and loved and who was it. It 792 00:34:19,668 --> 00:34:21,868 Speaker 1: It was Greg Jennings, it was Jordy Nelson, Donald Driver, 793 00:34:21,988 --> 00:34:24,028 Speaker 1: and James Jones. That's pretty damn good. Like that was 794 00:34:24,028 --> 00:34:27,348 Speaker 1: a pretty good receivers now without Adams. Adams was his 795 00:34:27,428 --> 00:34:29,508 Speaker 1: one guy, right, And I'm not not to disrespect the 796 00:34:29,548 --> 00:34:31,588 Speaker 1: other receivers in the roster, but Kyle, it's Rama Cobb 797 00:34:31,628 --> 00:34:33,948 Speaker 1: and it's Alam Lazard. Those are your guys. Very different 798 00:34:33,988 --> 00:34:36,748 Speaker 1: from twenty ten when the depth around the Jordy was 799 00:34:36,748 --> 00:34:38,788 Speaker 1: a lot stronger. I bet Greg jenn is having a 800 00:34:38,828 --> 00:34:40,828 Speaker 1: big day today. See out there? Yeah on the herd 801 00:34:40,908 --> 00:34:43,828 Speaker 1: yet who um, let's go right to that. Let's go 802 00:34:43,828 --> 00:34:46,428 Speaker 1: to the Packers offensive cupboard. Let's put it off to 803 00:34:46,548 --> 00:34:48,828 Speaker 1: see what kind of groceries we got. This is it, guys? 804 00:34:49,068 --> 00:34:51,228 Speaker 1: So you got the great running backs? That looks really good. 805 00:34:51,428 --> 00:34:54,828 Speaker 1: And then there it is. It's Lazard and Cobb. Who 806 00:34:54,868 --> 00:34:57,468 Speaker 1: knows that Brandall Cosumy on the team this year, Josiah Deguara. 807 00:34:57,708 --> 00:35:02,508 Speaker 1: Remember Roberts Tanya is free agents. Mercedes Lewis Lewis technically 808 00:35:02,708 --> 00:35:05,508 Speaker 1: still on there, but that is that is your You 809 00:35:05,588 --> 00:35:07,228 Speaker 1: came back, Aaron. We paid you all the money and 810 00:35:07,388 --> 00:35:09,108 Speaker 1: let's go beat the Rams and the Bucks in the 811 00:35:09,108 --> 00:35:11,268 Speaker 1: playoff as it stands now. But then it gets interesting. 812 00:35:11,308 --> 00:35:13,348 Speaker 1: Give me the next one because they oh my gosh, 813 00:35:13,388 --> 00:35:15,028 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a big, big trip to Las 814 00:35:15,148 --> 00:35:16,868 Speaker 1: Vegas for the Green Bay Packers. This is a lot 815 00:35:16,908 --> 00:35:19,788 Speaker 1: because look at those picks, a lot four picks in 816 00:35:19,828 --> 00:35:22,868 Speaker 1: the first fifty nine selection. So maybe they don't pick anybody, 817 00:35:22,988 --> 00:35:25,188 Speaker 1: Maybe they package those calls you'll get a wide receiver, 818 00:35:25,388 --> 00:35:28,148 Speaker 1: or maybe they just take a shot in rookies and say, Aaron, 819 00:35:28,548 --> 00:35:31,028 Speaker 1: make it work. Knowing the Packers, I'll take an offensive guard. 820 00:35:31,068 --> 00:35:34,268 Speaker 1: You know what, Peter, two linebackers a guard? We really, 821 00:35:34,308 --> 00:35:39,108 Speaker 1: who's that? There's a quarterback? Peter? That guy reason welcome 822 00:35:39,188 --> 00:35:42,508 Speaker 1: to Green Bay, San Diego State punter no receivers. Twenty second. 823 00:35:42,588 --> 00:35:44,188 Speaker 1: But here's I think there's a thing this morning and 824 00:35:44,348 --> 00:35:47,748 Speaker 1: last night where everyone wants to jump on Rodgers and say, Haha, 825 00:35:47,868 --> 00:35:50,148 Speaker 1: you're screwed. Now it's over because a lot of people, 826 00:35:50,228 --> 00:35:51,788 Speaker 1: you know, kind of root against Rogers for a bunch 827 00:35:51,828 --> 00:35:55,388 Speaker 1: of reasons. But MVP, well before Davante Adams could be 828 00:35:55,388 --> 00:35:58,228 Speaker 1: an MVP after Davantay Adams. I think Packers are gonna 829 00:35:58,228 --> 00:36:00,188 Speaker 1: be fine. Are you right now? Say they had nobody. 830 00:36:00,308 --> 00:36:01,828 Speaker 1: Let's say they go to war with that cupboard we 831 00:36:01,868 --> 00:36:03,228 Speaker 1: just showed. Are you not picking them to win the 832 00:36:03,308 --> 00:36:05,268 Speaker 1: NFC North because they have they're the best player in 833 00:36:05,268 --> 00:36:08,108 Speaker 1: the league. Maybe it's tighter, maybe it's not, But what 834 00:36:08,268 --> 00:36:09,948 Speaker 1: is the What else could they lose for you to 835 00:36:09,988 --> 00:36:12,468 Speaker 1: say they're absolutely screwed? Aaron Jones decides he wants to 836 00:36:12,468 --> 00:36:15,308 Speaker 1: retire tight. I still think they're fine. I really do. 837 00:36:16,148 --> 00:36:18,828 Speaker 1: Who cares if they're fine. I mean it's an uphillo. 838 00:36:18,948 --> 00:36:20,708 Speaker 1: That fine is not what I want from Aaron Rods. 839 00:36:20,748 --> 00:36:22,788 Speaker 1: By fine, I mean good to go. When the North 840 00:36:22,948 --> 00:36:26,188 Speaker 1: walk into the playoffs win twelve games. Again, let's say 841 00:36:26,228 --> 00:36:27,948 Speaker 1: they sign a couple of rookies or they signed one 842 00:36:27,948 --> 00:36:30,868 Speaker 1: of those receivers. Just coasts for three or four months, 843 00:36:30,908 --> 00:36:33,308 Speaker 1: build chemistry and maybe you can do it. I just 844 00:36:33,348 --> 00:36:36,468 Speaker 1: think like it wasn't working with Davante. It just wasn't there. 845 00:36:36,468 --> 00:36:38,628 Speaker 1: They wouldn't win a playoff game. So maybe they're not 846 00:36:38,668 --> 00:36:40,388 Speaker 1: going to be set to walk into the super Bowl now. 847 00:36:40,428 --> 00:36:42,508 Speaker 1: But the idea that they're going to fall apart and 848 00:36:42,548 --> 00:36:45,388 Speaker 1: they're screwed and they're gonna now win seven games, it's nonsense. 849 00:36:45,468 --> 00:36:47,468 Speaker 1: They're not going to and everyone who wants them to 850 00:36:47,468 --> 00:36:49,908 Speaker 1: you're gonna be disappointed because they're too good. You're at 851 00:36:49,908 --> 00:36:51,708 Speaker 1: the breakfast table. We've got a couple of minutes left. 852 00:36:51,988 --> 00:36:54,388 Speaker 1: Anybody think we'll have a place that we will finally 853 00:36:54,388 --> 00:36:56,148 Speaker 1: get to call home for Deshaun Watson come on next. 854 00:36:56,148 --> 00:36:57,908 Speaker 1: I would imagine by Monday we do. And I would 855 00:36:57,908 --> 00:36:59,988 Speaker 1: also point out that the Falcons and Matt Ryan like 856 00:37:00,108 --> 00:37:02,268 Speaker 1: talked this over and they agreed to push back. His 857 00:37:02,388 --> 00:37:04,828 Speaker 1: seven and a half million dollar roster bonus are supposed 858 00:37:04,868 --> 00:37:07,348 Speaker 1: to be due today until Tuesday. So whichever team he 859 00:37:07,388 --> 00:37:09,748 Speaker 1: goes to, if they make this move for Watson, will 860 00:37:09,748 --> 00:37:11,788 Speaker 1: then absorb that. So, like, I get the feeling that 861 00:37:11,828 --> 00:37:14,548 Speaker 1: the Falcons are putting all their chips in this bed, 862 00:37:14,628 --> 00:37:17,188 Speaker 1: and I almost respect the fact that Matt Ryan is like, 863 00:37:17,228 --> 00:37:19,468 Speaker 1: all right, I understand, or maybe I don't understand, but 864 00:37:19,468 --> 00:37:21,588 Speaker 1: he's not publicly airing it out. I'm almost more excited 865 00:37:21,588 --> 00:37:23,068 Speaker 1: to see where Matt Ryan ends up going because I 866 00:37:23,068 --> 00:37:25,348 Speaker 1: think he's that good football left too. And you're if 867 00:37:25,388 --> 00:37:28,388 Speaker 1: you're in Indianapolis, if you're at Cleveland, if you're a Seattle. 868 00:37:28,948 --> 00:37:31,388 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan becomes really appetizing as well, and I think 869 00:37:31,388 --> 00:37:32,868 Speaker 1: we might have a new home for Matt Ryan, but 870 00:37:32,908 --> 00:37:34,988 Speaker 1: basically appetizing, Like is there. I think it's from Matt 871 00:37:35,028 --> 00:37:37,228 Speaker 1: Ryan met Ryan, Jimmy, who's the bell of the ball. 872 00:37:37,228 --> 00:37:39,548 Speaker 1: When then Deshaun Watson thing drops, I mean, Matt Ryan's 873 00:37:39,588 --> 00:37:41,828 Speaker 1: do a lot more money, but probably get the numbers 874 00:37:41,828 --> 00:37:43,508 Speaker 1: worked out. I would think Matt Ryan is viewed as 875 00:37:43,508 --> 00:37:46,108 Speaker 1: a better viable option. Wow, you missed a Matt Ryan 876 00:37:46,188 --> 00:37:48,108 Speaker 1: just posted on Instagram how much he loves their fans 877 00:37:48,108 --> 00:37:50,708 Speaker 1: in Atlanta. How's that sure? Now he hasn't said the 878 00:37:50,708 --> 00:37:53,348 Speaker 1: squat and he wants some squat. But Matt Ryan will 879 00:37:53,348 --> 00:37:55,388 Speaker 1: be sitting there and be like, Hi, anybody want me? 880 00:37:55,428 --> 00:37:57,268 Speaker 1: And maybe in an hour from now because it maybe 881 00:37:57,308 --> 00:37:59,428 Speaker 1: gone or the shows them going to New Orleans and 882 00:37:59,428 --> 00:38:01,588 Speaker 1: then Matt Ryan is set and New Orleans has their quarterback? 883 00:38:01,708 --> 00:38:04,268 Speaker 1: If those really and I guess Carolina is just how 884 00:38:05,708 --> 00:38:09,828 Speaker 1: it was exciting for me. I think Sean doesn't want 885 00:38:09,868 --> 00:38:11,948 Speaker 1: to go there. Why go and win a super Bowl 886 00:38:12,148 --> 00:38:14,148 Speaker 1: at his age? Go to another team win a super Bowl? 887 00:38:14,348 --> 00:38:16,108 Speaker 1: Watch Matt Stafford get tray to go to. It's true 888 00:38:16,308 --> 00:38:19,188 Speaker 1: super Bowl, the Matt Stafford. Everybody's doing it. I'm best. 889 00:38:19,348 --> 00:38:21,628 Speaker 1: It's like the NBA. Let's go Yeah. Ryan and Stafford 890 00:38:21,668 --> 00:38:23,748 Speaker 1: are best friends. Their wives are very tight and they 891 00:38:23,788 --> 00:38:25,788 Speaker 1: all hang out there in Atlanta during the off season. 892 00:38:26,348 --> 00:38:27,788 Speaker 1: If you're just Shan, do you like to talk into 893 00:38:27,828 --> 00:38:29,748 Speaker 1: the Saints? Better Saints? A lot of question marks but 894 00:38:29,868 --> 00:38:32,588 Speaker 1: bona fide stars outside of Kyle Pitts in Atlanta, Who's 895 00:38:32,588 --> 00:38:34,668 Speaker 1: you're running back? With too many questions? I like Sean 896 00:38:34,708 --> 00:38:37,748 Speaker 1: Payton with the Saints. That's what I'm probably New Orleans. 897 00:38:38,268 --> 00:38:40,708 Speaker 1: I still like the package of their defense, beating Brady 898 00:38:40,828 --> 00:38:43,708 Speaker 1: the division. I like Kimara. I don't know Flora League. 899 00:38:43,748 --> 00:38:47,788 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll see the Atlantic's got ties in Atlanta. All right. 900 00:38:48,828 --> 00:38:50,188 Speaker 1: I can't believe we got through the week and didn't 901 00:38:50,228 --> 00:38:56,148 Speaker 1: find out freedom there. Relaxing
