Is Marathon? 0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:01.040 Is that the Is that the store in La Yeah. 0:01:00.680 --> 0:01:03.960 Nipsey, that's what I thought. 0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:06.200 That's awesome. That's a great looking shirt. I think I've 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:09.200 worn this sweatshirt four times on the pod. But it's 0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:11.959 a little homage to your sister and Stewart's college, so 0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:16.480 it's the but I like it. Uh. You see Santa 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:20.319 Cruz sweatshirt look at you one I'll see you on Yeah. No, 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:23.880 it's cool and it has the little banana slug poking 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:26.200 out of the pocket down here. It's pretty cool. I'm 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:28.759 not bad at showing things on camera, but the if 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:31.039 you're watching on YouTube, you can you can see that. 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:35.360 By the way. You know something, I realized. I've stopped 0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:39.040 telling people to like, subscribe, rate review for basically the 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:46.000 last and I'm now seeing all these podcasts just crushing us. 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:48.600 I think we're doing really good work, but we've said 0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:52.080 that we've kind of plateaued a bit on the subscribers 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.960 and the ratings. So I'm gonna because I don't ask often, 0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:58.120 and because I think I've earned it by hopefully helping 0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:01.000 you guys make money betting the cheats in the playoffs 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:04.720 as underdogs.

Subscribing on the YouTube page would 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:29.840 be greatly appreciated, and I'm wondering if post football season, 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:35.919 if we might have some content YouTube exclusive via Demanse 0:02:36.080 --> 0:02:38.320 in Los Angeles. He and I haven't talked about this, 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:41.360 but I've been thinking about it about whether or not 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.400 you could do some standalone content for the YouTube page. 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:46.960 Whether it's streaming or something. I'm not sure this is, 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:50.600 but I think it could be a offseason. I meant 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:52.240 to tell you about it, but I wanted to get 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:56.639 your your your immediate reaction. So if you could subscribe 0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:59.400 to us on YouTube, it would be greatly appreciated. And 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:02.639 we have a giveaway that we're doing today and throughout 0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:04.600 the week that we'll get into in just a moment. 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:07.720 But first, here's what missed the cut for today's show, 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:13.160 Steph Curry versus Sabrina Ayanescu. Apologies if I mispronounced that 0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:16.239 in the three point contest, that's gonna be awesome. Travis 0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:19.079 Kelcey not attending the Grammys, he has a super Bowl 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:23.840 to play, and Dame returns to Portland, yet the Bucks lose, 0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:27.520 and later in the show, we're gonna be giving away 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:30.800 some We're gonna have our first ever What's Right Show giveaway. 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:34.720 I will explain that in moments. But before we do that, Demons, 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.040 let's get right to what the top of the show 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:39.920 topic is, which is, of course, the Chiefs. 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:45.080 The Chiefs right on the cusp is at solidifying theirself 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.760 as a dynasty, going to the Super Bowl four times 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.960 in the last five years, on the cusp of winning 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.440 the third one in the last five years. But for 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:55.840 some reason they are still underdogs in this game. 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:57.560 Could you explain that? 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.600 And do you think that they deserve to be underdogs 0:03:59.640 --> 0:04:01.160 in this game against the forty nine ers. The forty 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:02.360 nine ers are obviously pretty good. 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:05.720 Four nine ers are really good, but the forty nine 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:08.440 ers have not really played their best ball over the 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:13.760 last five six weeks. Baltimore crushed them, they had less 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:17.800 than impressive performances right before and after that game, and 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.960 in both of these playoff games, the Niners have looked 0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:25.040 super vulnerable, particularly on the back end of their defense. 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:30.000 Here is the crazy thing about the Chiefs in the 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:36.600 playoffs the last two years, They've consistently been underdogs. AFC 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:43.600 Title game last year in Arrowhead opened Cincinnati favored by 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:47.559 a point and a half in Arrowhead. Now that line 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:49.960 ended up moving to where the Chiefs were the one 0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:53.200 one and a half point favorites to kickoff, but it started. 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:57.679 Cincinnati is the favorite the Super Bowl neutral sight against 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:04.599 Philly Philly one point favorite. Round two in Buffalo, Buffalo 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:08.000 three and a half point favorites, Round or the AFC 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:12.359 Title game this year against Baltimore. Baltimore closed at a 0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:17.800 five point favorite, and then the Super Bowl opened. San 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:21.360 Francisco minus three and a half got bet all the 0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:23.880 way down to San Francisco minus one and a half 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:27.560 and has now been bet back up to San Francisco 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:31.880 minus two and a half, and so they have allowed 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:37.080 the Chiefs to credibly be Then nobody believes in US team, 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:41.880 despite the fact that I think everyone would acknowledge that 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:45.359 this postseason, at the very least, the Chiefs have looked 0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:49.640 far better than San Francisco has. Now, the Chiefs have 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:54.000 two significant injuries going into this game that San Francisco 0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.680 does not. Joe Tooney, the all Pro left guard who 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.720 got hurt in the Bills game. It looks like he's 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:02.440 not going to be able to go even in the 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:05.920 Super Bowl. They hold out hope, but probably not. And 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:10.880 Charles Amenaho, the one of their major offseason free agent 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:15.360 acquisitions the defensive end. He tore his ACL sadly in 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:18.359 the AFC Title Game, and this is brutal for him. Man, 0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:21.640 he was a Niner. He has talked super Bowl all year. 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.000 He has talked about how he signed with the Chiefs 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:27.000 to get to the super Bowl and a game before 0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:29.919 you get to the super Bowl and a mina, who's 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.400 the one who had the stripsack on Lamar. You know, 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:35.159 he's been excellent for the Chiefs. He missed the first 0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:38.360 six games of the year with a suspension, so those 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.120 are major losses. We'll see about Willie Gay, We'll see 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:45.239 about Derek Natty, two Chiefs that starting Chiefs defensive players 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:48.839 who had to miss the previous week against the Ravens 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.400 and not he's missed I think the last two games. 0:06:51.839 --> 0:06:53.279 In fact, I know he has. He missed the Bills 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:56.080 game as well, but I think the wrong team's favored. 0:06:56.440 --> 0:07:02.200 And we'll do more super Bowl stuff next week. But 0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:06.560 it is I'm actually happy that the Chiefs have that 0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:10.080 little bulletin board material that they're the underdogs. But I 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:12.680 want this is what I want to do here. I 0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:15.360 want to tell you guys about our giveaway, and then 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:19.680 I want to discuss what I think in retrospect might 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:25.120 be the single biggest game in NFL history. But here's 0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:28.240 our giveaway. So as you guys know, I never had 0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:30.880 a doubt about the Chiefs this year, I have. I 0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:34.320 got the tattoo that says it as much. And this 0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:37.560 is what we're doing for you guys. You guys can 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:41.280 join me in being right about the team. If you 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.520 also have no doubt about the Chiefs in the super Bowl, 0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:49.000 we can get you a temporary never a Doubt tattoo 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:52.280 in the exact same script as mine so you can 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.400 show you solidarity. All you have to do is tag 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:59.440 us on social media at What's Right Show and explain 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:03.120 why rolling with the Chiefs and include the hashtag never 0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:06.080 a Doubt. We'll pick our favorites and send you a 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:09.480 replica of my never a Doubt tattoo for you to 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:11.720 show off at your Super Bowl party. Make sure you 0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:14.280 have your DMS open so we can reach out to 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.119 you if you win. But again, tag us at What's 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:20.760 Right Show, use hashtag never a doubt and about why 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:22.760 you believe the Chiefs are gonna win, and we'll send 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:26.040 you a never adult Chiefs tattoo. We'll pick out our favorites, 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:28.400 and then I'll find some ways to maybe do some 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:31.480 in person giveaways of these. Maybe we'll have some extras 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:35.760 here at Trentage that people can, you know, come by 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:38.160 and pick up. So we'll do all that, but first 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:42.000 and foremost tag it. Demanze also has never a Doubt 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:45.920 tattooed on his forearm, but his is in Korean. But demonse, 0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:50.559 didn't you know, demons show it's right there. It's not there, 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:53.520 it is. Yeah, he got it very big letters in Korean. 0:08:53.880 --> 0:08:56.760 Never a doubt. I had doubts when he got that tattoo, 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:58.800 but little did I know he was ahead of the curve. 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:08.200 All right, I want to talk about what now we 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:12.000 might look at on as one of the single biggest 0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:19.320 games in NFL history, because if Mahomes wins on Sunday, 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:22.280 there is going to be a lot of could he 0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:28.280 be the goat conversation? But that conversation runs into two 0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:34.640 significant hurdles. One is seven to three rings Brady to Mahomes, 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:39.240 and the other is Brady beat him head up in 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:42.360 a Super Bowl in Tampa. I know some people will 0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:44.160 bring up the fact that Brady also beat him in 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:46.839 the AFC Title Game, Mohmes first year as a starter. 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:51.720 That one is less noteworthy to me because Mahomes played 0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:55.920 a perfect game. Brady threw multiple interceptions that you know 0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:59.680 Mahomes by any metric outplayed Tom in that game. And 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:01.440 then he can get the ball in overtime, and Tom 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:03.199 had his best drive of the game at the end 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:06.959 and in overtime. But the Super Bowls the Super Bowl, 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:11.880 and the Chiefs were the defending champs, the Chiefs were 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.800 the favorites, the Chiefs had beaten them in the regular season, 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:19.400 and the Chiefs got their ass kicked. And so for 0:10:19.480 --> 0:10:22.320 all those reasons, Mahomes has a very tough hill to 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:28.160 climb in the goat conversation. So just as a thought exercise, demanse, 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:35.240 let's pretend for a moment the Chiefs had beaten the 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:38.920 Bucks in that Super Bowl. And when we talk about 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:45.080 the biggest names and people in NFL history, how that 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:51.680 one game going differently would change everyone's legacies and thoughts. Okay, 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:58.000 start with Bill Belichick. How much of Bill Belichick's current 0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:03.920 kind of slide in standing has been because Tom Brady 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:08.960 left him and immediately won a Super Bowl, as opposed 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:11.160 to if the Chiefs had won that game, it would 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:14.000 have been, well, you played Mahomes and Andy in the 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:17.520 playoffs with Belichick, you won the game. You played him 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:19.640 in the super Bowl without him, you lost the game. 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:24.240 But more so from Bill. If Patrick wins on Sunday, 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:27.160 the Super Bowl total is going to be seven to 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:31.360 three Tom Patrick, with Tom having been two to zero 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:35.120 in the playoffs against him again, flip the result of 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:41.040 that won super Bowl. Now it's six to four. Mahomes 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:44.640 would have won four in five years, which no one 0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:48.200 has ever done. They'd be one and one in the 0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:53.000 playoffs against each other, and I think most people would say, oh, 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:57.200 he's going to become, if not already, the greatest player ever. 0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:01.960 That one game the thing it changed as far as 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:06.320 how also Tom, people would say what they kind of 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:09.360 now say about Bill. They would say, well, he was 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:12.960 good without Bill, but never, you know, never was able 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:15.280 to get over the hump, never was able to win 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:18.000 the Super Bowl, and he won one in his second 0:12:18.040 --> 0:12:22.920 to last year with the Patriots. That one game, the 0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:26.880 butterfly effect it has on the rest of the league 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.640 as far as legacies. The Chiefs would already have had 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:34.360 a back to back and the way we look at 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:40.120 the goat debate. It's wild to me because the difference 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:42.880 between it being currently seven to two and maybe here 0:12:42.920 --> 0:12:45.320 in a few weeks seven to three versus it being 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.640 six to three and maybe in a few weeks six 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.880 to four, it might be a hurdle too high for 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:54.000 Patrick to overcome for the count the rings folks, but 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.760 it is. It also makes me happy that that game 0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:02.840 wasn't in retrospect close because it would even more Oh 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:06.000 and you blew it at the Chiefs just getting their 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:09.200 ass kicked start to finish. Other people have asked me 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:12.360 about the one other you know, playoff loss to Brady 0:13:12.840 --> 0:13:15.760 in the twenty eighteen season and how much that burns 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:19.360 the D FOURD off sides game all that, I've now 0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:25.280 come to peace with this. I truly believe had the 0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:30.000 Chiefs won that game, they wouldn't have fired Bob Sutton, 0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:34.760 the inover has had defensive coordinator, and then brought in 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:39.320 Steve Spagnolo, who, in my opinion, has been the fourth 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:44.200 most important person of this dynasty. It goes Andy, I'm sorry, 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:49.000 it goes Patrick, then Andy, then Travis, and then Steve Spagnolo. 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:52.480 But if the Chiefs hadn't beaten the Patriots and made 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:55.200 the Super Bowl. I don't think they bring in Bob Sutton. 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:57.720 I don't think they bring in Steve Spagnolo. So I'm 0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:02.960 kind of at peace with that loss. Typically, but everything 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:06.160 that's happened since then, if it all rolls the same, 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:07.960 but the Chiefs find a way to win that Super 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:11.320 Bowl against Tampa, we are having totally different discussions. But 0:14:11.760 --> 0:14:13.640 such his life. And now they got to take care 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:15.760 of Brock in the forty nine ers, and let's go 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.960 ahead and get to them now, Demonse, all right. 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:22.560 So the Avengers love nothing but hyping up Brock Party 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:25.240 and backing them up. Christian McCaffrey just said the other day, 0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:28.440 I don't know when exactly it was, but he said 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:31.240 Party takes a lot of heat for absolutely no reason. 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:33.920 It's like he wasn't there in the football game that 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:36.360 they just played a few days ago. Are the forty 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:38.680 Do you think the forty nine ers are overcompensating because 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:40.160 they know Rock Party isn't that good? 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:42.920 What do you think is going on there? Is it genuine? 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.280 I think it's I think it's a little genuine. 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:50.320 I think it's a little genuine. I think it's a 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.360 little trying to gas their guy up and build his confidence. 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:57.880 I also think that it's a little straw many like 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:01.800 I at this point demonse and starting to be flattered 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:07.320 that my voice in the sports media seems to have 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:10.960 grown loud enough that me and Cam Newton and a 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:14.360 couple other people saying pump the brakes on brock Party 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:18.960 as League MVP has become this rallying crid where Draymond 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:24.120 Green is referencing this stuff in Warriors post games like 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:25.800 I go ahead. 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:28.280 Demanse, Yeah, I was just about to say I didn't 0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:31.320 see that. I saw it in the rundown. I mean 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:32.960 that kind of brings me to the follow up. Do 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:35.840 you think that Draymond Green might have said something to 0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:36.800 backup Rock Party? 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:37.520 It's to slight you. 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:43.040 Uh yeah, I mean yeah. 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:45.440 I mean I think it's at least part of it. Yeah, 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:45.760 I do. 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:46.320 I like. 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:51.120 So, here's the thing. I it is odd to me 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:56.360 that so much of the conversation is brock Party gets 0:15:56.480 --> 0:16:00.960 no respect when that conversation is being had had in 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:06.400 the same football universe of Brock Purty NFL MVP finalist, 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:11.880 Brock Party, pro bowler. Brock Party is like he is. 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:14.560 You can't say that nobody gives him respect. And the 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:16.480 argument is he should be m VP. 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:23.960 Exactly, and when he's a finalist for MVP, which means 0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:28.120 he's top five vote getter this year. So this when 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:30.960 they say the media doesn't respect him, the media is 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:35.160 the one voting on MVP and he's a finalist, And 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:40.920 so the the I I was, and I said it 0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:42.840 on Tuesday. I was impressed by some of the things 0:16:42.880 --> 0:16:45.440 he did in the NFC Championship game. Some of you know, 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:48.280 he played poorly, obviously in large stretches of it, but 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:50.600 then he made some some of the scrambles were good. 0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:55.640 He made a couple of really nice throws. Yeah, and 0:16:56.600 --> 0:17:01.280 but I I think there is a level of projection 0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:05.359 and where I get frustrated. And I talked by the 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:08.840 way Damon Bruce speaking of subscribing things on YouTube, if 0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:13.840 you're a Bay Area sports fan, Damon Bruce, in my opinion, 0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:18.120 the best sports radio host in Bay Area history, started 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.679 his own YouTube channel in his own podcast that he 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:23.800 went Independent. I went on with him last night for 0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:26.200 like forty five minutes. You guys should subscribe to Damon 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:31.080 Bruce Plus if you for anything Warriors, Niners, bay Area 0:17:31.160 --> 0:17:35.600 related and he and I argued about Brock Purty and 0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:41.159 here is to me, what is so interesting about the 0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:47.919 party thing. His biggest supporters agree with me on so 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:52.199 many things. They just don't like my delivery. If you 0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:56.960 ask the biggest Brock party supporters, hey, okay, no matter 0:17:57.040 --> 0:18:00.879 what you think of him, are there five guys on 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:06.200 the Niners offense better than him? They will sheepishly try 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:10.080 to change the subject and then typically admit, yes, Trent, 0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:16.000 Christian Kittle, Ayuk debo, all five of those guys are 0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.880 better at their jobs than pretty as it is, and 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:20.439 my frustration. 0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:25.040 But those other guys aren't the Trent Williams. 0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.879 That isn't the position that usually gets MVPs like A 0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:30.919 couple of those positions aren't even really like in the 0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:32.960 race so to speak for mv. 0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:36.040 Of course, No, no, that's absolutely right. 0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:36.800 Uh. 0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:41.359 I don't disagree with you on that. My My point is, 0:18:41.440 --> 0:18:48.840 though we Trent Williams only gets a Christian McCaffrey never 0:18:48.920 --> 0:18:54.840 gets asked, man, how good is Trent Williams? Brandon Ayuk 0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:59.480 never gets asked how good is George Kittle? These guys 0:19:00.040 --> 0:19:04.679 who are a plus players are then asked about and 0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:07.320 I get it to the quarterback, like how good is Brock? 0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:12.359 And I feel like we are we are efforting to 0:19:13.480 --> 0:19:19.120 build other to a degree where it almost by default 0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:24.639 takes away some from the actual great players. But we'll see, man, 0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:27.639 Like you couldn't have asked for a better scenario for 0:19:27.760 --> 0:19:30.080 folks that have wanted my Brock Party take to be 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:32.760 a classic Category three. When I'm confident it's gonna be 0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:35.000 a classic Category two, go ahead. 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:37.280 I got shut I got shut out last week when 0:19:37.320 --> 0:19:41.200 this topic came up. But exactly what you said was 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:44.400 gonna happen. I'm not saying that Brock Perry is gonna 0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:47.280 go and beat Mahomes, but this is like nightmare fuel 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:49.080 for you, like the forty nine ers of gear notes 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:50.880 to play the Chiefs in the super Bowl, And if 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:54.000 Rock Party beats the Chiefs in the super Bowl, it's 0:19:55.440 --> 0:19:58.240 I'm truly gonna feel for you, like genuinely I'm gonna be. 0:19:58.200 --> 0:19:58.800 Sad for you. 0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:04.960 I mean, I went through something similar the last time 0:20:05.000 --> 0:20:08.560 the Chiefs were going for a repeat, which was I 0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:13.040 was the guy all year long doubting Brady with the Bucks. 0:20:13.240 --> 0:20:16.240 Now it's a different type of doubt because Brady was 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:21.119 already the goat. But but I was saying that I 0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:25.760 thought he wasn't the same player that you know. I 0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:28.240 would love if the Chiefs got to play them in 0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:31.080 the super Bowl, which, by the way, that I have 0:20:31.240 --> 0:20:33.400 never said about San Francisco because I have so much 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:36.280 respect for that roster and that team as a whole. 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:38.600 I've never said like, oh, that would be the dream 0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:42.560 super Bowl matchup. And then Tom Brady played the Chiefs 0:20:42.560 --> 0:20:46.680 in the Super Bowl and they kicked their ass and 0:20:46.760 --> 0:20:49.040 I had to eat it and wear it all off season. 0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:53.760 This is now any other NFC team that made it, 0:20:54.680 --> 0:20:59.560 I would be on a total take free role. If 0:20:59.560 --> 0:21:02.000 the cow always made it in one. I picked the 0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:05.320 Cowboys all year, right. If the Lions made it in one, 0:21:05.480 --> 0:21:07.920 I haven't been one of those people calling the Lions 0:21:08.000 --> 0:21:10.720 frauds like I've been like, hey, that's a good team that. 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:11.439 Uh. 0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:14.840 If Baker made it in one, I almost get more 0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:20.840 credit than it had, right Uh. If the oh, I guess, 0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:23.680 if the Eagles had done it, I would have had 0:21:23.720 --> 0:21:26.440 to be pretty little eagle my face because I had been. 0:21:26.560 --> 0:21:29.080 But the Eagles were The Eagles had as good a 0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:31.960 chance of winning three playoff games as the Panthers did 0:21:32.160 --> 0:21:34.879 the way they looked going into the playoffs, the Packers, 0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:38.000 I would have just been happy for you, you know 0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:40.320 what I mean. Nobody's like, oh, Nick, you've hated on 0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:44.680 the Packers and the Rams. I the last two months, 0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:47.479 I was saying that I thought they could make the 0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:49.760 super Bowl out of the NFC. I you know, I 0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:51.960 picked them to be in the conference championship game. 0:21:53.680 --> 0:21:53.920 Team. 0:21:54.840 --> 0:21:57.639 The Niners are the only one which but it also 0:21:57.720 --> 0:22:01.560 could be the single best like it Also, there is 0:22:01.640 --> 0:22:07.359 a game script here where Mahomes drives down the field 0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:09.000 and gets a quick seven. 0:22:09.560 --> 0:22:13.600 And just where party just folds and all that stuff 0:22:13.600 --> 0:22:13.919 comes to. 0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:20.720 Light where the Chiefs get an early lead, the Niners 0:22:20.760 --> 0:22:23.760 make a mistake, or they get stopped, or their crummy 0:22:23.840 --> 0:22:26.679 rookie kicker misses a field goal, and before you know it, 0:22:26.680 --> 0:22:29.119 it's ten to nothing Kansas City. And I know the 0:22:29.200 --> 0:22:35.640 Niners have had comebacks this postseason, right, and then all 0:22:35.680 --> 0:22:39.560 of a sudden, we have some tip passes, we have 0:22:39.600 --> 0:22:42.639 some pretty hospital balls, we have some ducks over the 0:22:42.720 --> 0:22:45.359 middle of the field. Like there is a script where 0:22:45.880 --> 0:22:48.280 and here's the other thing I'll say about the party stuff. 0:22:49.600 --> 0:22:54.240 I think the Niners should tamp down the conversation surrounding 0:22:54.280 --> 0:23:00.520 it for two reasons. One, this guy has a blinked 0:23:00.520 --> 0:23:03.520 I give him credit. The Super Bowl is going to 0:23:03.560 --> 0:23:07.879 feel different two weeks leading up to it, staring across 0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:11.520 the field at Patrick Mahomes, knowing what is at stake 0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:14.800 for him, for his career, legacy, all of it, It's 0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:18.880 gonna feel different. Anger's the fact that the biggest storyline 0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:23.639 going into the game is going to be Here's brock 0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:27.600 Perty's arc, Here's Tom Brady's arc, Here's Brock Purty's arc, 0:23:27.680 --> 0:23:31.520 Here's Joe Montana's arc. That's gonna be the storyline. And 0:23:32.280 --> 0:23:37.159 some you know, tricky television producers are also going to 0:23:37.200 --> 0:23:41.040 do Here was brock Purty this season, Here's Patrick Mahomes 0:23:41.119 --> 0:23:46.800 this season. And there is going to be I think, 0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:52.560 added undue pressure on the kid because his teammates are, 0:23:52.920 --> 0:23:56.480 you know, so leaning into him being the story. Here's 0:23:56.520 --> 0:23:58.800 the other thing that I believe is going to happen. 0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:04.560 I believe some San Francisco forty nine or at media 0:24:04.640 --> 0:24:07.879 Nite at the Super Bowl is going to say the 0:24:07.960 --> 0:24:13.560 seemingly innocuous thing that most people would say in this spot, 0:24:14.000 --> 0:24:17.919 and as soon as they say it, my buddy Bobby Stroup, 0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:23.399 Patrick Mahomes's personal trainer, will find the clip and tweet 0:24:23.480 --> 0:24:26.000 it out, which means he sent it to Patrick. And 0:24:26.040 --> 0:24:30.119 the quote is going to be this San Francisco forty 0:24:30.200 --> 0:24:35.199 nine or X call it, uh, maybe George Kittle. I 0:24:35.320 --> 0:24:39.600 think Brock is the best quarterback in the NFL. End quote, 0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.919 And that is not seemingly a shot, but I'm telling 0:24:44.000 --> 0:24:46.640 you it will be viewed as one. 0:24:46.960 --> 0:24:50.159 And so I think the quarterbacks are even in the 0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:50.760 super Bowl. 0:24:52.040 --> 0:24:55.600 Well, but it will be like the I don't think 0:24:55.640 --> 0:24:59.320 anyone is going to say the words I think Brock 0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:01.959 is better than my I don't think they're gonna say that, 0:25:02.280 --> 0:25:04.640 but I do think someone will say he's the best 0:25:04.720 --> 0:25:07.959 quarterback in the NFL, which Mahomes is in the NFL. 0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:10.280 So just you know what I mean, just kind of 0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:13.399 file that away and we'll see if it happens. Before 0:25:13.480 --> 0:25:16.560 we get to the Cowboys and Belichick, we have some 0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:20.240 early contest juries that we can throw up on the screen. Again, 0:25:21.320 --> 0:25:24.760 tag at What's Right show and use hashtag never a 0:25:24.840 --> 0:25:27.399 Doubt If you want to try to get one of 0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:31.679 these free temporary tattoos thousand of cards says, or the 0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:34.560 House of Cards tweeted A thousand cards tweeted I believe 0:25:34.560 --> 0:25:37.359 in the Chiefs because of fifteen. Patrick Mowons can't be stopped. 0:25:37.359 --> 0:25:39.600 I can't say never a doubt for most of the season, 0:25:39.880 --> 0:25:43.359 but I'll never doubt fifteen again. I appreciate the honesty there, Buddy, 0:25:44.400 --> 0:25:47.200 the Knitton says, I've been trying to tell everyone that 0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:49.560 they just won the Super Bowl with the same receiving corps. 0:25:49.560 --> 0:25:52.600 No one ever listens. I get called fake fan, bandwagoner, 0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:54.639 et cetera. But It'm really just about the facts. If 0:25:54.640 --> 0:25:57.520 Mahomes is playing, I'm not betting against him, smart man. 0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:01.520 And then Dylan Mayle says, why the Kansaity Chiefs are 0:26:01.520 --> 0:26:04.040 gonna win the Super Bowl? Better coach, better defense, far 0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:06.800 better quarterback gets throw to the goat tight end. It's 0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:09.920 really that simple. At What's Right show hashtag never a doubt? 0:26:10.480 --> 0:26:12.920 Love it, So keep sending those in and we'll pick 0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:15.119 some winners. What's up to Monsey? Did you want to 0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:16.520 say somewhere you want to move on to the count? 0:26:16.560 --> 0:26:17.960 No? That was that was That was awesome. 0:26:18.000 --> 0:26:23.200 Guys, don't bet against Patrick Mahomes, but onto the Cowboys. 0:26:23.200 --> 0:26:24.000 Yeah, let's do it. 0:26:24.880 --> 0:26:26.560 Uh so Yeah. 0:26:26.680 --> 0:26:29.800 Jerry Jones, he stirred the pot yesterday and he said 0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:33.480 that he believes that he and Bill Belichick could definitely 0:26:33.480 --> 0:26:34.240 work well together. 0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:35.840 I think we're gonna pull up the Coulte board. 0:26:36.320 --> 0:26:42.760 Yeah, there's no doubt in my mind we could work together. None. None. Yo, 0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:45.920 Why did he do this? And should we send him? 0:26:46.080 --> 0:26:48.679 Never a doubt stand for his new relationship. 0:26:50.880 --> 0:26:54.000 He's out of his mind and not because why would 0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:54.439 he do that? 0:26:55.800 --> 0:26:56.000 Right? 0:26:56.119 --> 0:26:58.760 It's not that I disagree that he and Belichick could 0:26:59.200 --> 0:27:03.760 work together, but you Kepta McCarthy, like, could you imagine 0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:08.680 demonse could could? Like if trying to think of a 0:27:08.680 --> 0:27:13.960 good example here, if it became very well known that 0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:18.320 who's a great sports podcaster, I'll use Kevin Clark. I 0:27:18.359 --> 0:27:20.680 think he's awesome. I think Kevin Clark, he does stuff 0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:25.359 for Omaha, I think he's awesome. If Kevin Clark was 0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:30.280 very publicly looking for a new podcasting role and you 0:27:30.880 --> 0:27:34.479 were very publicly on the hot seat here and I 0:27:34.680 --> 0:27:38.880 make an announcement, we're bringing Demonsee back. You know what. 0:27:39.000 --> 0:27:41.280 We didn't like the what how the last year ended, 0:27:41.440 --> 0:27:44.119 but we're bringing him back. And then A week later, 0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:46.840 I tell Andrew Marshand, Oh do I think me and 0:27:46.960 --> 0:27:49.200 Kevin Clark could work well together? You bet your ass? 0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:55.120 I feel we could absolutely Yeah, No, I have no doubt. Hey, 0:27:55.359 --> 0:27:58.040 you would then be like wait a minute here, like 0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:04.520 how old I see? And here's the So here's the 0:28:04.720 --> 0:28:08.960 Manginie on the show yesterday said he thinks it's more 0:28:09.040 --> 0:28:12.639 than on the board that Belichick never gets another job. 0:28:14.080 --> 0:28:15.960 That no, I would say the same thing to some 0:28:16.080 --> 0:28:18.080 of my colleagues yesterday. 0:28:18.119 --> 0:28:19.040 I thought I was insane. 0:28:20.600 --> 0:28:22.240 So he's I mean, he's not going to get a 0:28:22.320 --> 0:28:25.960 job this cycle. And so then he would be the 0:28:26.119 --> 0:28:30.119 oldest coach ever in NFL history, oldest head coach a 0:28:30.200 --> 0:28:35.359 year from now. And that is I that is to 0:28:35.440 --> 0:28:39.840 me unfathomable. But maybe it's true. Here's the thing that 0:28:40.080 --> 0:28:43.600 Colin has brought up a bunch that I think Warren's mentioning. 0:28:44.280 --> 0:28:50.040 There are, in my opinion, five a lister quarterbacks demanse 0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:56.080 who their head coach starts next year on the semi 0:28:56.120 --> 0:29:03.280 hot or red hot seat Okay with McDermott, Jalen with 0:29:03.400 --> 0:29:11.680 Sirianni Dak with uh McCarthy, McCarthy, Trevor with Doug Peterson 0:29:12.720 --> 0:29:17.240 and Caleb with the head coach of the Bears. I 0:29:17.400 --> 0:29:20.640 reflus I think all I think any of those five 0:29:20.760 --> 0:29:25.840 coaches could be fired if next year goes poorly, I 0:29:25.880 --> 0:29:28.040 would expect at least a couple of them probably to 0:29:28.160 --> 0:29:31.920 be fired. So unlike this year where there was only 0:29:32.040 --> 0:29:36.400 one a list quarterback Herbert with a coaching vacancy available, 0:29:36.840 --> 0:29:42.240 next year there could be a handful. And if you're Belichick, 0:29:43.000 --> 0:29:47.280 I honestly think the Cowboys of those five potential jobs 0:29:47.720 --> 0:29:51.880 are the least attractive. I think because of the ownership, 0:29:51.960 --> 0:29:57.920 because of Dak's contract, and because of some of the things. 0:29:58.920 --> 0:30:01.200 Like it's just like I don't think that's gonna end 0:30:01.280 --> 0:30:02.160 up going anywhere. 0:30:03.360 --> 0:30:06.880 Well, so that's the concern. That's the concern is exactly 0:30:06.920 --> 0:30:11.160 that is that the And now maybe Belichick could unlock it. 0:30:11.680 --> 0:30:14.200 But if if you again, I don't know that he'll 0:30:14.200 --> 0:30:16.880 have his choice of jobs. But if I were him, 0:30:17.680 --> 0:30:22.360 the idea of getting Trevor to a higher level, getting 0:30:22.560 --> 0:30:25.920 Josh to just cut out some of the turnovers, building there, 0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:29.320 going to Philly, getting Jaalen back to where he was, 0:30:29.640 --> 0:30:33.360 along with having that d line personnel and the Caleb thing. 0:30:33.680 --> 0:30:36.840 I don't think the Bears would hire seventy three year old. 0:30:37.040 --> 0:30:41.600 I think Bill Belichick. That that's why I thought Philly 0:30:41.600 --> 0:30:47.200 should fire Sirianni and bringing Bill immediately, but they didn't. 0:30:47.240 --> 0:30:51.800 All right, let's go speaking of coaching. I mean, we're 0:30:51.840 --> 0:30:53.840 kind of doing this there, but we can get more 0:30:53.880 --> 0:30:54.480 into it here. 0:30:55.120 --> 0:30:55.320 Right. 0:30:55.400 --> 0:30:58.080 So, obviously there's been a huge coaching fiasco, a lot 0:30:58.120 --> 0:31:00.000 of jobs opening up, a lot of jobs being closed. 0:31:00.120 --> 0:31:04.160 Did On Belichick, Carl and Vrabel are still available, obviously, 0:31:04.640 --> 0:31:08.840 but Ben Johnson managed to stay put. There's one opening left, 0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:11.120 and it doesn't seem like they're likely to pick any 0:31:11.120 --> 0:31:13.920 of those guys. How do we go from so many 0:31:14.000 --> 0:31:17.640 there being so many coaches to coaches being snubbed in 0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:19.400 an abundance of coaches announces? 0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:25.400 Yeah, So I don't know that Ben Johnson thing. You know, 0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.680 it was reported that he wanted crazy money and that 0:31:28.680 --> 0:31:34.120 that turned some teams off. Vrabel I think is confident 0:31:34.840 --> 0:31:38.880 he can get a really good job. So when the 0:31:39.000 --> 0:31:42.400 charger job wasn't there, you went to Harball. He wanted 0:31:42.400 --> 0:31:45.080 to fall back. I don't know how much of a 0:31:45.120 --> 0:31:48.680 market there I guess was for Carol and Belichick because 0:31:48.680 --> 0:31:52.080 of their age. I think that probably works against them. 0:31:52.200 --> 0:31:55.560 But I also think to reference back to what I 0:31:55.600 --> 0:31:59.040 said earlier, if you're one of those guys and you 0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:02.800 believe you can get a job, waiting a year is 0:32:02.840 --> 0:32:07.400 not the worst idea. Like where if you believe that 0:32:07.480 --> 0:32:11.960 the Cowboys, Eagles, Bills, those three at least one, if 0:32:12.000 --> 0:32:15.640 not two, of those three could come open. What was 0:32:15.760 --> 0:32:19.800 very surprising was no team that made the playoffs fired 0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:25.120 their coach. That usually happens that a team makes the playoffs, 0:32:25.160 --> 0:32:28.640 but it was disappointing like what happened with the Eagles, 0:32:29.000 --> 0:32:31.320 or just falls totally flat on their face, like happen 0:32:31.400 --> 0:32:34.280 with the Cowboys that despite making the playoffs, they fire 0:32:34.320 --> 0:32:36.320 their coach, but they didn't.

Sorry, all right, let's 0:35:14.920 --> 0:35:19.320 see I'm seeing the I'm seeing black on my screen, 0:35:19.360 --> 0:35:24.480 so I can't see that. Okay, Patrick Mahomes reminding the 0:35:24.480 --> 0:35:26.160 rest of the NFL how many cans of Whoop Pass 0:35:26.200 --> 0:35:32.239 he saws available. That's a decent meme. That's I don't 0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:34.560 know what it's from. I'll be honest with you, I'm 0:35:34.560 --> 0:35:36.239 not sure, but uh shout out. 0:35:36.280 --> 0:35:37.680 I think that's themselves. 0:35:38.200 --> 0:35:41.920 We entered the contest. All right, demonse, Let's go on 0:35:41.960 --> 0:35:43.320 to the Lebron and the Lakers. 0:35:43.840 --> 0:35:46.400 So we are a week away from the trade deadline, 0:35:47.360 --> 0:35:51.279 the NBA trade deadline, and Lebron is already tweeting We're 0:35:51.320 --> 0:35:53.280 going to show those on YouTube. 0:35:55.160 --> 0:35:59.600 Hour the hour glass where time is running out, not 0:35:59.680 --> 0:36:02.560 the hour glass where it just started. That is no right, 0:36:02.840 --> 0:36:06.120 So the two hour tweet, man, he tweeted the one, 0:36:06.280 --> 0:36:08.319 yeah that where time is running out. 0:36:08.320 --> 0:36:10.200 Go ahead. Guys are such big babies. 0:36:10.239 --> 0:36:12.480 But you said you don't You said you don't think 0:36:12.719 --> 0:36:15.799 he'll demand a trade, but still help the Lakers trade him. 0:36:16.280 --> 0:36:19.320 Would Lebron's legacy take a hit with a mid season trade? 0:36:19.719 --> 0:36:23.040 Or like maybe that tweet was about Darvin Ham. 0:36:23.200 --> 0:36:28.760 Oh, I think it probably was about Darvin Ham. But 0:36:28.760 --> 0:36:31.399 but firing the coach. The Lakers don't have a move 0:36:31.440 --> 0:36:35.759 they can make to make them championship caliber, all right, 0:36:35.840 --> 0:36:38.520 There's just not There isn't one they could improve. They 0:36:38.520 --> 0:36:41.000 could fire the coach, they could try to acquire Zach 0:36:41.080 --> 0:36:43.560 Lavine or de Jonte Murray, but I don't know that 0:36:43.560 --> 0:36:47.360 that makes them championship caliber. It's crazy that Lebron and 0:36:47.440 --> 0:36:49.279 ad have been healthy all year and they're a five 0:36:49.400 --> 0:36:55.000 hundred team. I would like Lebron to be traded that 0:36:55.840 --> 0:37:00.800 he could go. There are three teams out East right 0:37:00.840 --> 0:37:05.640 now that I think are a tick below championship caliber 0:37:05.960 --> 0:37:08.040 that if he went there could win the whole thing. 0:37:08.840 --> 0:37:13.160 The Heat, the Sixers, or the Knicks. I think all 0:37:13.239 --> 0:37:17.319 three of those teams would be with Lebron good enough 0:37:17.320 --> 0:37:19.560 to win the title. And if Lebron were to say 0:37:19.600 --> 0:37:22.160 to the Lakers, because Lebron's a free agent after this year, 0:37:22.600 --> 0:37:26.439 I'm leaving after this season, so why don't you get 0:37:26.480 --> 0:37:29.160 something back for me, I think it could be great 0:37:29.239 --> 0:37:32.160 for all parties. I just don't think he'll do it. 0:37:32.600 --> 0:37:34.920 I think one of the reasons he won't do it 0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:37.239 is because I think he wants to be for the 0:37:37.280 --> 0:37:40.000 rest of this season in Los Angeles so he can 0:37:40.040 --> 0:37:43.600 watch Bronny play. I think that he's not gonna, you know, 0:37:44.080 --> 0:37:46.840 he's never done a mid season move where all of 0:37:46.880 --> 0:37:50.560 a sudden, you know, his daughter and other son, he's 0:37:50.600 --> 0:37:53.680 not gonna be able to be around them. And I 0:37:53.719 --> 0:37:56.000 think he takes a lot of pride in the fact 0:37:56.480 --> 0:38:00.279 that he has honored every contract he's ever signed. He's 0:38:00.320 --> 0:38:03.359 never asked out, he's never demanded a trade. He has 0:38:03.480 --> 0:38:07.239 only left teams via free agency when the contract has expired, 0:38:07.760 --> 0:38:09.359 and so I think he takes pride in it. I 0:38:09.400 --> 0:38:12.440 do think it's a shame though, this year, because the 0:38:12.480 --> 0:38:17.640 Lakers are not good enough and uh and he's just 0:38:17.880 --> 0:38:21.440 so that that's where we're at on the Lakers. Also, 0:38:21.640 --> 0:38:24.760 NBA don't have the trade deadline be three days before 0:38:24.800 --> 0:38:28.720 the super Bowl. From just like a content perspective, Push 0:38:28.719 --> 0:38:31.480 it back to a week after the super Bowl and 0:38:31.520 --> 0:38:34.560 you'll get all the conversation. I don't undert like. I 0:38:34.640 --> 0:38:38.440 just think it's bad from a strategy perspective. But go ahead, Demante. 0:38:39.000 --> 0:38:42.640 So dan Quinn just went to the Commander's breaking news. 0:38:42.680 --> 0:38:46.759 Oh wait, oh, I saw that that might be happening. No, no, no, 0:38:46.800 --> 0:38:50.520 that was good. I'm I'm done with the lebron stuff. 0:38:52.520 --> 0:38:56.200 I saw this morning that somebody reported that was close. 0:38:57.080 --> 0:39:00.799 I don't know that that's a great hire for the record, uh, 0:39:01.200 --> 0:39:05.800 I mean, he's the Cowboys job there until the playoffs. Well, 0:39:06.400 --> 0:39:08.560 the enemy's not gonna get a job. It would appear 0:39:08.880 --> 0:39:12.480 like that's another discussion for another day. He wasn't even 0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:15.279 discussed in this cycle, like he wasn't even one of 0:39:15.320 --> 0:39:19.520 the people that was getting overlooked the I would love 0:39:19.600 --> 0:39:21.560 for I'd love for him to come back to the Chiefs. 0:39:21.560 --> 0:39:23.600 I don't know that he will. The reason I don't 0:39:23.640 --> 0:39:27.239 know that I love this for the Commanders is they 0:39:27.239 --> 0:39:29.680 have the number two pick of the draft. They're gonna 0:39:29.719 --> 0:39:33.640 draft either Drake may or Jaden Daniels. Ideally, I would 0:39:33.680 --> 0:39:38.359 like to marry him with an offensive coach instead. You're 0:39:38.360 --> 0:39:43.000 gonna have a scenario where dan Quinn hires an offensive coordinator. 0:39:43.760 --> 0:39:47.160 If it goes great, then that offensive coordinator will then 0:39:47.239 --> 0:39:50.920 get plucked away and then the quarterback is on you 0:39:50.920 --> 0:39:54.840 know what I mean? So here one of the so 0:39:55.680 --> 0:40:04.680 one of the secrets to the Patriot dynasty was Josh 0:40:04.760 --> 0:40:10.800 McDaniels was the offensive coordinator left did such a terrible 0:40:10.960 --> 0:40:14.839 job in Denver that once he got fired, no one 0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:18.080 wanted him as the head coach, and he eventually went 0:40:18.160 --> 0:40:21.080 back to New England and Brady got to just even 0:40:21.080 --> 0:40:24.160 though he had defensive coach have the same offensive mind 0:40:24.160 --> 0:40:28.400 with him for like another decade, because he wasn't getting 0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:31.040 any other head coaching jobs until the Raiders got desperate 0:40:31.040 --> 0:40:32.960 and gave him the job a couple of years ago, 0:40:33.000 --> 0:40:37.080 once Brady was already gone. So the Chiefs, by the way, 0:40:37.480 --> 0:40:39.439 have something similar on the other side they was talking 0:40:39.440 --> 0:40:44.080 about with Spagnolo. Andy hires Spagnolo. Spagnolo's head coaching tenure 0:40:44.400 --> 0:40:48.040 with the Rams was such a disaster, no one interviews 0:40:48.080 --> 0:40:50.919 him for head coaching jobs, and Andy can just turn 0:40:51.000 --> 0:40:53.279 the defense over to him. And while Andy could lose 0:40:53.360 --> 0:40:57.919 offensive coordinators because he's an offensive minded coach, he can 0:40:57.960 --> 0:41:02.080 then get more involved. I just the dan Quinn hire 0:41:02.280 --> 0:41:07.200 is uninspiring in my opinion. Oh, Matt Ford, I met 0:41:07.280 --> 0:41:10.680 God like a Commanders fan. Matt, you want to jump 0:41:10.719 --> 0:41:14.080 on the mic, Matt, how are you feeling, buddy, I'm sorry. 0:41:14.200 --> 0:41:16.280 Like I assume he wanted Ben Johnson. 0:41:16.800 --> 0:41:19.200 He says, anytime you can hire the guy who gave 0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:22.160 up fifty who gave up fifty points to Jordan Love 0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:23.040 in a playoff game? 0:41:23.400 --> 0:41:25.520 You have to do it, yeah, I mean he's not 0:41:25.600 --> 0:41:28.600 coming off a great performance. There's I mean, there's no 0:41:29.080 --> 0:41:32.040 there's no question there. All right, demonse, let's play public defender. 0:41:32.520 --> 0:41:35.840 We are playing public defender, all right. So the Pro Bowl, 0:41:36.080 --> 0:41:39.399 the Pro Bowl alternates were announced and Gardner Minshew got 0:41:39.440 --> 0:41:42.880 selected in the AFC. Oh so you probably thought we 0:41:42.880 --> 0:41:45.480 were going to have you defend Gardner Minshew making the 0:41:45.480 --> 0:41:48.360 Pro Bowl. But that's not what we're having you do. 0:41:48.960 --> 0:41:50.960 You will be making the case for your favorite quarterback 0:41:51.000 --> 0:41:54.640 getting snubbed, counselor defend your client Josh Allen. 0:41:55.719 --> 0:41:57.600 So I don't think I have to defend him. I 0:41:57.680 --> 0:42:02.080 think Josh Allen opted out. I think the way the 0:42:02.160 --> 0:42:06.719 Pro Bowl alternates work is this, if they have to 0:42:06.800 --> 0:42:10.479 go to an alternate, they call a guy and say, hey, 0:42:10.680 --> 0:42:14.320 if you're named, will you go, And I think Josh 0:42:14.360 --> 0:42:17.440 said no, so then they had to go down further 0:42:17.600 --> 0:42:21.200 down the list. So here is I'm not actually gonna 0:42:21.239 --> 0:42:23.319 do a public defender on this just because I think 0:42:23.320 --> 0:42:26.200 it's obviously Josh was better this year than Gardner. It 0:42:26.280 --> 0:42:30.200 also was a weird spot where Josh was an MVP finalist, uh, 0:42:30.239 --> 0:42:34.759 but not a pro bowler. Uh. The and the so 0:42:35.239 --> 0:42:39.640 he was an MVP finalist over Tua, over Mahomes who. 0:42:39.680 --> 0:42:41.799 Again I'm not saying we're MVPs, but those guys were 0:42:41.880 --> 0:42:43.480 named the Pro Bowl, Josh wasn't. 0:42:44.160 --> 0:42:44.560 Uh. 0:42:44.760 --> 0:42:48.799 Here's would Tyler Hutley not have been worthy of that? 0:42:48.960 --> 0:42:49.439 Last year? 0:42:50.560 --> 0:42:52.839 Yeah? Last year a mac Jones a couple of years ago. 0:42:53.400 --> 0:42:56.200 So that that's how those guys end up getting getting in. 0:42:56.320 --> 0:42:59.640 But now that there's not an actual football game, I 0:42:59.640 --> 0:43:02.960 don't think we need alternates. I think you name the 0:43:03.040 --> 0:43:07.239 official roster and if guys don't go or don't show up, 0:43:07.560 --> 0:43:10.959 then you just adjust the little skills competitions on the fly. 0:43:11.600 --> 0:43:17.120 I don't think you need alternates. And because it screws 0:43:17.200 --> 0:43:19.840 up the history books when it's like this guy was 0:43:19.880 --> 0:43:23.120 a pro bowler and this guy wasn't, like the idea 0:43:23.760 --> 0:43:27.200 that by Pro Bowl Records Gardner Minshew had a better 0:43:27.280 --> 0:43:31.160 year this year than CJ. Stroud or Josh Allen and 0:43:31.239 --> 0:43:35.000 maybe CJ took someone else's spot. I'm not sure is 0:43:35.040 --> 0:43:35.680 crazy to me? 0:43:35.840 --> 0:43:36.200 All right? 0:43:36.320 --> 0:43:36.600 Next? 0:43:37.680 --> 0:43:40.239 All right, So Kevin Durant returned to Brooklyn for the 0:43:40.239 --> 0:43:44.840 first time since being traded last night. Even Katie had said, quote, 0:43:45.360 --> 0:43:48.520 please don't do the night. We will be better off 0:43:48.520 --> 0:43:51.719 without it in quote. So of course the Nets did 0:43:51.800 --> 0:43:55.400 anyway to gimmembrate one epic runs of the Eastern Conference, 0:43:55.440 --> 0:44:00.560 simmis counselor defend your client, the Brooklyn Nets, or this 0:44:00.800 --> 0:44:01.680 very easy defense. 0:44:02.280 --> 0:44:07.840 In the modern NBA, everybody gets tribute videos. Kevin Durant is, 0:44:07.880 --> 0:44:11.000 in his short tenure, still one of the greatest players 0:44:11.000 --> 0:44:14.520 in the history of our franchise. We don't have posts 0:44:14.560 --> 0:44:18.600 since we've been to Brooklyn around two. Game seven of 0:44:18.640 --> 0:44:21.360 a round two is the furthest we've ever been in 0:44:21.400 --> 0:44:24.840 the playoffs. Katie was awesome for us here it didn't 0:44:24.960 --> 0:44:27.239 end great. And here's the other thing that I will 0:44:27.280 --> 0:44:30.200 say to defend my client, the Brooklyn Nets. We have 0:44:30.239 --> 0:44:34.680 a sneaking suspicion that had there been an announcement before 0:44:34.800 --> 0:44:38.520 Kevin said anything that we were not doing a tribute video, 0:44:38.800 --> 0:44:41.600 he would have been pissed. So he can go ahead 0:44:41.640 --> 0:44:44.000 and say, don't do it. I don't need it. 0:44:44.120 --> 0:44:44.919 What out see? 0:44:45.520 --> 0:44:48.720 Why do we counselor sorry, why do we care about 0:44:49.000 --> 0:44:52.320 Katie being pissed if he demanded a trade out of Brooklyn. 0:44:52.719 --> 0:44:54.040 Why do we care about this guy for you? 0:44:54.280 --> 0:44:58.840 That's no I understand that, But my point is far 0:44:59.000 --> 0:45:03.160 lesser players have gotten tribute videos. I don't know when 0:45:03.280 --> 0:45:07.320 we jumped the shark on tribute videos, but now it means, really, 0:45:07.640 --> 0:45:10.239 did you ever play for us and have any meaning? 0:45:11.360 --> 0:45:15.200 We're gonna give you a tribute video? And so that's 0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:17.520 just the hold on. Let me see if I can 0:45:17.560 --> 0:45:24.279 find the example saddest NBA tribute video, saddest, the well 0:45:24.400 --> 0:45:28.040 so sad as maybe the hold on worst player. 0:45:28.840 --> 0:45:34.760 Two goo's he didn't get it on YouTube? 0:45:34.760 --> 0:45:39.839 Honestly, all right, Reddit might have an answer here. I mean, yeah, 0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:44.879 so the Nets did one for Blake Griffin. Think about that. 0:45:45.400 --> 0:45:50.000 The Nets did a tribute video for Blake Griffin. Oh, 0:45:50.160 --> 0:45:54.000 I've got a better one. The Cavs did one for 0:45:54.680 --> 0:45:58.280 little Isaiah Thomas, who was on the team for fifty 0:45:58.320 --> 0:46:01.160 games before Lebron had him ship. Doubt that not. The 0:46:01.200 --> 0:46:07.440 Celtics Demanse the Calves did it, and so the people. 0:46:07.520 --> 0:46:11.359 The Norris Cole got one with the Heat. Now he 0:46:11.440 --> 0:46:13.000 did win titles with the Heat. 0:46:13.800 --> 0:46:15.960 That might have been the worst one. You listed to 0:46:15.960 --> 0:46:19.280 be honest. But yeah, but they at least actually. 0:46:23.440 --> 0:46:28.560 Did. I think the Lakers gave Taylor Horton Tucker a 0:46:28.680 --> 0:46:29.359 tribute video. 0:46:29.680 --> 0:46:32.960 This is my point, man, everybody leaves has a mural 0:46:33.000 --> 0:46:34.279 out here in La right now. 0:46:36.239 --> 0:46:40.560 Oh so uh oh, the Hawks gave Dwight Howard a 0:46:40.680 --> 0:46:41.480 tribute video. 0:46:42.320 --> 0:46:42.880 That's crazy. 0:46:43.080 --> 0:46:45.680 Do you even remember Dwight Howard playing for the Hawks. 0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:48.360 Let me see how many games he played for the Hawks. 0:46:48.719 --> 0:46:51.640 Dwight played. I'm trying to pull it up right now. 0:46:52.280 --> 0:46:56.359 Dwight played seventy four games one season with the Hawks. 0:46:56.520 --> 0:46:59.359 Given tribute video. So this's my point. Everybody gets them 0:46:59.360 --> 0:47:00.359 all right, next? 0:47:01.760 --> 0:47:06.080 Okay, yesterday, Mavericks Heads coach Jason Kidds said, Lucas past 0:47:06.200 --> 0:47:08.359 Dirk and is as the best player in the mass 0:47:08.400 --> 0:47:11.200 franchise history and now is in the realm of Michael 0:47:11.280 --> 0:47:15.440 Jordan and Lebron James counselor defend your client, Jason kidd. 0:47:16.880 --> 0:47:20.120 This is an open and shutcase of a man desperately 0:47:20.200 --> 0:47:26.480 trying to make sure Lucas stays that Luca is approaching 0:47:26.760 --> 0:47:31.520 pre agency, as Simmons has dubbed it, pre free agency 0:47:31.960 --> 0:47:35.799 the MAVs. You know, my employer. The MAVs have not 0:47:35.960 --> 0:47:39.480 done a great job building a team around him. Luca's 0:47:39.520 --> 0:47:43.000 averaged forty twelve and twelve the last few weeks, and 0:47:43.000 --> 0:47:47.200 we're still barely hanging on to a playoff spot. And 0:47:47.440 --> 0:47:49.600 I need to throw as many flowers his way as 0:47:49.640 --> 0:47:53.640 possible because we're terrified that he is eventually going to 0:47:53.680 --> 0:47:57.440 demand a trade. Obviously, he is not in the realm 0:47:57.880 --> 0:48:01.880 of Michael or Lebron, and obviously he is not yet 0:48:01.960 --> 0:48:05.680 past Dirk for the best player in MAVs history. Now, 0:48:06.480 --> 0:48:10.720 what I will say is, Luca is building a case 0:48:11.560 --> 0:48:16.080 in all seriousness demands. I'm I'm curious what your immediate 0:48:16.080 --> 0:48:19.480 reaction is going to be. Luca is building a case 0:48:20.680 --> 0:48:25.520 that he is one of how do I put it, 0:48:26.040 --> 0:48:30.839 on track to be one of the three greatest offensive 0:48:30.880 --> 0:48:34.440 players ever. He is building that case, you know what 0:48:34.520 --> 0:48:39.400 I mean? That just on and not scoring and creating, 0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:44.120 because his assist numbers are crazy and is all and 0:48:44.239 --> 0:48:49.359 so he is not improved enough defensively to ever get 0:48:49.360 --> 0:48:55.080 in the fort but the yeah, but I mean even 0:48:55.120 --> 0:48:59.040 the even the top ten all time, He's going to 0:48:59.160 --> 0:49:05.600 have to the worst defender in the all time pantheon, 0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:10.480 like top twelve fourteen guys. The worst two defenders are 0:49:10.960 --> 0:49:19.080 Magic and Steph and I get by the way, similar size, 0:49:19.120 --> 0:49:24.400 all that stuff. But Magic went to nine finals and 0:49:24.440 --> 0:49:27.600 won five rings like that. You know that's gonna be. Uh, 0:49:28.000 --> 0:49:32.359 that's gonna be and one four league MVPs like that 0:49:32.520 --> 0:49:35.160 or three league MVPs. That's gonna be a tough one 0:49:35.440 --> 0:49:38.239 for Luca. Uh. But yeah, Jason Kidds just trying to 0:49:38.239 --> 0:49:39.480 make sure Lucas stays all right. 0:49:39.560 --> 0:49:43.160 Next, the NBA is coming under fire for their sixty 0:49:43.200 --> 0:49:46.200 five game requirement to be eligible for awards. 0:49:45.760 --> 0:49:47.640 Like MVP in all NBA. 0:49:48.280 --> 0:49:51.600 Now players like Embiide of course and Tyrese Helliberden are 0:49:51.680 --> 0:49:54.440 likely to miss out on clam claiming those awards due 0:49:54.440 --> 0:49:57.680 to injuries. Counselor defend your client the NBA. 0:49:59.600 --> 0:50:03.760 Uh, my client in the NBA fell victim to something 0:50:04.040 --> 0:50:08.360 we often do, the old unintended consequences. The old heart 0:50:08.400 --> 0:50:11.879 was in the right place, but didn't necessarily see some 0:50:11.920 --> 0:50:15.480 of the unintended consequences of this. Also, my client in 0:50:15.480 --> 0:50:19.680 the NBA would like to stand by the sixty five 0:50:19.760 --> 0:50:21.840 game requirement for League MVP. 0:50:22.560 --> 0:50:22.680 Uh. 0:50:23.239 --> 0:50:28.880 That's legitimate, and if you look at NBA history, the 0:50:29.000 --> 0:50:34.160 vast majority of MVPs played more than seventy games sixty 0:50:34.200 --> 0:50:37.440 five shouldn't have been a problem up until recently. The 0:50:37.440 --> 0:50:42.280 All NBA stuff is trickier because of the money associated 0:50:42.320 --> 0:50:48.400 with it. So demand's a Tyrese Halliburton has a contract 0:50:48.560 --> 0:50:53.799 that is going to so it's a five year, two 0:50:53.880 --> 0:50:58.959 hundred million dollars deal that becomes a five year, two 0:50:59.080 --> 0:51:03.120 hundred and five forty million dollar deal if he makes 0:51:03.160 --> 0:51:07.160 the All NBA team this year. So the fact that 0:51:07.840 --> 0:51:11.279 he's played up to that level but might not make 0:51:11.320 --> 0:51:13.400 it because he's not going to meet the games restriction, 0:51:13.880 --> 0:51:17.719 that's brutal and something the NBA should have anticipated and 0:51:17.760 --> 0:51:21.359 maybe created a workaround for because they're not load managing him. 0:51:21.400 --> 0:51:23.360 He got hurt, but he's been. 0:51:23.280 --> 0:51:27.760 Awesome, so they should be some type again, right, because 0:51:27.760 --> 0:51:29.399 like they just incorporated that, right. 0:51:29.440 --> 0:51:30.359 I feel like with that. 0:51:30.560 --> 0:51:34.120 Just being yes being put in that they'll create some 0:51:34.239 --> 0:51:36.759 type of structure to make it to where guys, we'll 0:51:36.800 --> 0:51:43.440 get some type of pass for that because Hylburton obvious. 0:51:42.320 --> 0:51:47.120 Yeah, and so they they they kind of maybe took uh, 0:51:47.280 --> 0:51:51.160 you know, a sledgehammer where you needed a scalpel With 0:51:51.280 --> 0:51:55.719 all that said, the load management stuff is it's such 0:51:55.719 --> 0:51:59.720 a disaster for the league and they need to find 0:51:59.719 --> 0:52:01.439 a way to get their arms around it. I don't 0:52:01.440 --> 0:52:05.359 think they've gotten it exactly right yet. All Right, we're 0:52:05.360 --> 0:52:08.240 gonna keep doing our tattoo giveaway. I'm gonna remind everyone 0:52:08.239 --> 0:52:11.600 about that, and we're going to answer some of your 0:52:11.640 --> 0:52:18.799 listener questions. We'll do that next What's Right. All right, 0:52:18.840 --> 0:52:21.640 welcome back in What's Driving the Right Episode two thirteen. Again, 0:52:21.680 --> 0:52:24.400 we're doing something we've never done before. We're doing a giveaway. 0:52:25.239 --> 0:52:28.440 You can get a temporary never a Doubt tattoo if 0:52:28.440 --> 0:52:30.759 you're you know, believe in the Chiefs for this Super 0:52:30.800 --> 0:52:33.600 Bowl against the Niners. All you gotta do is tweet 0:52:33.719 --> 0:52:36.640 at What's Right show, include the ashtag never a Doubt 0:52:36.920 --> 0:52:40.360 and why you believe in the Kansaity Chiefs for the 0:52:40.400 --> 0:52:43.240 Super Bowl against the Niners. We have your dms open, 0:52:43.520 --> 0:52:45.600 we'll pick some of our favorites. We'll send them out 0:52:45.640 --> 0:52:48.280 to you guys before the Super Bowl, and then also 0:52:48.360 --> 0:52:52.040 if you're in the New York area, we'll do maybe 0:52:52.040 --> 0:52:54.680 a giveaway here at Trentage and maybe we can set 0:52:54.760 --> 0:52:56.960 something up with demanse for the people out on the 0:52:56.960 --> 0:53:00.520 West coast. Mike Brand says, never dow the Chiefs when 0:53:00.520 --> 0:53:03.600 you have potentially greyst player ever plays most important position 0:53:03.680 --> 0:53:05.800 bet the farm and him every time Cherry on tops 0:53:05.840 --> 0:53:08.600 having two goats at their position with Kelsey and Reid 0:53:08.640 --> 0:53:11.160 love it. So that's a good tweet from Mike Branch, 0:53:12.560 --> 0:53:16.040 lifelong BattleHawks fans, says defense looked amazing all year. It 0:53:16.080 --> 0:53:18.400 was clear reading Mahomes figured out how to make this 0:53:18.560 --> 0:53:23.000 at least a competent offense by January. That is exactly right, 0:53:23.040 --> 0:53:24.399 and it's why I believe in them all year. 0:53:24.520 --> 0:53:24.880 Baby. 0:53:24.920 --> 0:53:27.839 And someone that I can't see, because there we go. 0:53:28.239 --> 0:53:30.520 Ryan Hodges has been riding since day one, and my 0:53:30.600 --> 0:53:33.439 Marcus Allen Jersey, all right, he definitely should get one. 0:53:33.719 --> 0:53:34.239 I like that. 0:53:34.360 --> 0:53:37.719 Good job by him. All right, demons, let's read some 0:53:37.760 --> 0:53:39.920 listener questions before we wrap up the show. 0:53:40.600 --> 0:53:44.799 Mkill Clinton's asking the good stuff, Nikhill, Clinton, francis no disrespect, 0:53:44.880 --> 0:53:47.480 he said, Nick, are you concerned that Andy, Reid and 0:53:47.480 --> 0:53:50.400 Mahomes aren't gonna have more than ten years together to 0:53:50.480 --> 0:53:52.920 run the dynasty like Belichick and Brady did. 0:53:54.040 --> 0:53:54.759 Heat So. 0:53:56.480 --> 0:54:01.400 Here's the thing, I'm not concerned. There's been a Andy 0:54:01.480 --> 0:54:08.879 Reid retirement rumors floated repeatedly by Florio and then all 0:54:09.120 --> 0:54:14.000 I saw that the other day, people were like, oh, 0:54:14.040 --> 0:54:19.080 someone else has chimed in, and it was Michelle Tafoya. 0:54:20.120 --> 0:54:23.920 What that, guys, I'm here to tell you that the 0:54:24.040 --> 0:54:27.720 idea that Michelle Tafoya would have insight on what Andy 0:54:27.760 --> 0:54:33.120 Reid er Patrick Mahomes is doing. I mean, I say 0:54:33.160 --> 0:54:36.120 this with I guess a modicum of respect, but if 0:54:36.160 --> 0:54:41.360 it's not some moral panic about what books are available 0:54:41.360 --> 0:54:45.120 in your kid's school library, Michelle Tafoya is not your 0:54:45.120 --> 0:54:49.239 go to source on anything these days, all right, And 0:54:49.280 --> 0:54:52.600 then so I just I don't think Andy is retiring. 0:54:53.000 --> 0:54:56.319 And if you remember, when Mahomes agreed to the ten 0:54:56.520 --> 0:55:00.640 year contract, he said that Andy told him he would 0:55:00.680 --> 0:55:03.239 stay as long as the contract. Now, I don't know 0:55:03.280 --> 0:55:07.160 if Patrick's gonna keep Andy to that, but Patrick's got 0:55:07.280 --> 0:55:09.919 nine years left on the deal or eight years left 0:55:09.920 --> 0:55:16.240 on the deal. And so I the I'm not worried 0:55:16.280 --> 0:55:20.320 about any of the key pieces leaving. Well, that's not true. 0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:25.160 Chris Jones could leave, So I'm not worried about Travis. 0:55:25.760 --> 0:55:30.160 I'm not worried about Travis leaving. So I'll tell you why. Well, 0:55:30.239 --> 0:55:34.520 maybe just one. But so the Chris Jones could leave 0:55:34.520 --> 0:55:37.560 in free agency and Lugarious Sneid could leave in free agency, 0:55:37.600 --> 0:55:39.719 it would be shocking if the Chiefs could bring him 0:55:39.760 --> 0:55:43.520 both back. I love both those players, Love both those players. 0:55:43.920 --> 0:55:48.720 Chris has been the best defensive player since Derek Thomas 0:55:48.719 --> 0:55:51.480 for the Kansas City Chiefs, and Snead's one of the 0:55:51.520 --> 0:55:54.760 best draft picks of this era, fourth round pick, turning 0:55:54.760 --> 0:55:58.759 into maybe the best corner in football. Snead also has 0:55:58.840 --> 0:56:03.799 had a life full of tragedy. I mean, the if 0:56:03.800 --> 0:56:09.640 people go back and read about Sneid, there was I yeah, 0:56:09.920 --> 0:56:15.440 I mean it's public record. But Lagarius Snead, there was 0:56:15.480 --> 0:56:19.560 an article written about him about three years ago, two 0:56:19.600 --> 0:56:22.880 and a half years ago about how so many members 0:56:22.920 --> 0:56:27.200 of his family died early or were murdered. And in 0:56:27.239 --> 0:56:31.399 that article he talks about how his brother basically led 0:56:31.480 --> 0:56:33.960 him through this and got you know what I mean, 0:56:34.080 --> 0:56:36.640 looked over him, helped him all of it. And like 0:56:36.680 --> 0:56:39.640 two months after that article came out, that brother was killed. 0:56:40.320 --> 0:56:45.200 So Snead has had a very very rough go of it. 0:56:45.239 --> 0:56:48.239 Has not made real money in the league. I mean, 0:56:48.280 --> 0:56:51.239 he's been I understand it's all relative, but he's played 0:56:51.239 --> 0:56:53.760 in the NFL for four years. He's made just under 0:56:53.800 --> 0:56:57.600 four million dollars. So I hope Lagarius Snead gets every 0:56:57.680 --> 0:57:00.799 dollar he possibly can get and can help set up 0:57:01.040 --> 0:57:03.360 who you know what I mean. And so those guys 0:57:03.440 --> 0:57:08.160 might be gone, and he's not going anywhere, and Travis 0:57:08.840 --> 0:57:12.319 is having too much fun, is still too good in 0:57:12.360 --> 0:57:19.480 the playoffs. And here's the other thing. I think Taylor 0:57:19.680 --> 0:57:24.200 loves going to these games too much. I think that 0:57:24.960 --> 0:57:30.040 Taylor is being like Taylor is not fake supporting Travis 0:57:30.080 --> 0:57:33.640 at these games. This is Wilde's take, but it is 0:57:33.680 --> 0:57:37.000 the right take. Wild's take is life is high school, 0:57:37.640 --> 0:57:40.960 and in high school, Taylor Swift was the band girl 0:57:41.480 --> 0:57:45.760 that the jocks didn't pay any attention to. And now 0:57:46.440 --> 0:57:50.080 she's dating the star of the football team and having 0:57:50.200 --> 0:57:56.800 the time of her life. And so the well, yeah, yeah, 0:57:56.840 --> 0:58:00.440 the co star of the football team. And so this 0:58:00.600 --> 0:58:05.200 idea that, oh, Travis is gonna retire because of the 0:58:05.360 --> 0:58:07.520 I think the only reason people think Travis might retire 0:58:07.600 --> 0:58:10.360 is because he's so famous now and has so many 0:58:10.400 --> 0:58:14.320 other opportunities. Because of the Taylor Swift relationship. I think 0:58:14.360 --> 0:58:18.080 Taylor loves it, and so I don't think he's retiring. 0:58:18.200 --> 0:58:20.640 I just don't. I mean, he has said he's not retiring. 0:58:21.080 --> 0:58:23.160 After the game, he said to Mahomes, I could do 0:58:23.200 --> 0:58:26.160 this another eleven years. That obviously isn't true. But he's 0:58:26.160 --> 0:58:27.840 too good still, right. 0:58:28.440 --> 0:58:31.640 I wasn't saying because of just fame got too rich. 0:58:31.720 --> 0:58:33.560 I was just saying, like, how much longer can he 0:58:33.640 --> 0:58:36.840 do it? She's like physically, yeah, I mean. 0:58:39.360 --> 0:58:42.520 Giving him the first couple months of next season off. 0:58:42.720 --> 0:58:46.600 Here's the other thing, though, demanse, if they win Sunday, 0:58:47.920 --> 0:58:50.680 they have a chance to be the greatest team ever. Yeah, 0:58:51.320 --> 0:58:55.280 because no team is ever threepeeded, and so that if 0:58:55.320 --> 0:59:01.920 they win Sunday, I wonder yeah, And but I also 0:59:01.960 --> 0:59:05.959 wonder if that makes Chris Jones more likely to come back, 0:59:06.920 --> 0:59:10.120 if they can work something out where it's like, guys, rue, 0:59:10.800 --> 0:59:13.640 we can you know what I mean? The like, Chris 0:59:14.320 --> 0:59:18.400 now is not a lock Hall of famer. He's not. 0:59:19.520 --> 0:59:22.200 I don't even think right now he is a likely 0:59:22.360 --> 0:59:26.000 Hall of famer because he doesn't have the individual accolades 0:59:26.120 --> 0:59:29.000 yet he only has a couple all pros, you know, 0:59:29.080 --> 0:59:32.560 it's a tough position. The Yeah, he only has two 0:59:32.600 --> 0:59:36.400 All pros. Well, he only has two first team All Pros. 0:59:36.440 --> 0:59:38.680 He does have three second team All Pros. So maybe 0:59:38.720 --> 0:59:40.440 he is a Hall of Famer. I'm not sure. But 0:59:41.320 --> 0:59:44.400 if he is the star of a defense, that three 0:59:44.480 --> 0:59:47.040 peats changes a lot of things. So we'll see. 0:59:47.560 --> 0:59:48.320 Yeah, but go ahead. 0:59:48.360 --> 0:59:48.840 I'm sorry to. 0:59:50.840 --> 0:59:54.120 No, so I'll just go into the next question. Yeah, 0:59:54.720 --> 0:59:58.440 oh yeah, sorry. Brandon Thompson says Vandy Reid did retire. 0:59:58.520 --> 1:00:00.760 Who would be your ideal head coach coach that you 1:00:00.760 --> 1:00:02.040 want to have coaching? 1:00:02.280 --> 1:00:03.080 Patrick Mahomes. 1:00:04.480 --> 1:00:10.000 So if I would be absolutely fine with this setup, 1:00:12.720 --> 1:00:16.120 Bill Belichick, you can come be the head coach of 1:00:16.160 --> 1:00:19.640 the Chiefs. You can maybe pass Brady in Super Bowls. 1:00:19.680 --> 1:00:24.080 You can get Shula's record. However, you need to bring 1:00:24.160 --> 1:00:28.640 in to run the offense, Eric b Enemy, and the 1:00:28.720 --> 1:00:32.600 enemy can be the potential coach in waiting. You have 1:00:32.680 --> 1:00:36.320 to keep Steve Spagnolo running the defense, and Brett Beach 1:00:36.360 --> 1:00:38.680 has to keep running the team. You are the head 1:00:38.720 --> 1:00:43.480 coach and head coach alone. If that couldn't happen, then 1:00:43.520 --> 1:00:47.800 I would hire the enemy. I well, I would talk 1:00:47.840 --> 1:00:51.760 to Mike Vrabel, but I would hire the enemy, and 1:00:51.920 --> 1:00:54.640 I would say, you have a relationship with everyone. Patrick's 1:00:54.680 --> 1:00:57.280 gonna help Spags is gonna run the defense, and we'll 1:00:57.360 --> 1:00:58.240 let you do it all right. 1:00:58.320 --> 1:01:04.160 Next, Andrew Simpson says, Hey, Nick, hypothetical, I would love 1:01:04.200 --> 1:01:07.120 to hear you talk about Fields to Miami for first 1:01:07.560 --> 1:01:11.360 and Tua to Vikings. Give h McDaniels a higher ceiling 1:01:11.440 --> 1:01:17.560 quarterback and gets the Vikings and out for Cousins, who says, no, all. 1:01:17.600 --> 1:01:20.920 Right, well, listen, nobody's trading a first round or for Fields. 1:01:21.200 --> 1:01:22.720 You might be able to get a good too. I 1:01:22.720 --> 1:01:26.360 don't think you're gonna get a first I also think 1:01:26.440 --> 1:01:30.200 Miami is gonna run it back with Tua, just not 1:01:30.360 --> 1:01:34.280 give him a contract. I think that their situation is 1:01:34.840 --> 1:01:37.320 that we thought this year was gonna be the year 1:01:37.360 --> 1:01:39.360 or two, you know, proved whether or not he was 1:01:39.360 --> 1:01:41.960 worth the contract. I think they're gonna let him play 1:01:42.000 --> 1:01:45.360 out his fifty year option and see I don't think 1:01:45.480 --> 1:01:49.240 also there's a great market for him in the trade market. 1:01:49.280 --> 1:01:52.040 And if you're in Minnesota, you kind of already had 1:01:52.200 --> 1:01:55.320 the good but not great limited quarterback. And I think 1:01:55.320 --> 1:01:58.120 they're gonna bring back Kirk I think the only hope 1:01:58.480 --> 1:02:01.600 for Kirk being so nowhere else was if the Niners 1:02:02.240 --> 1:02:05.360 fell totally flat in the playoffs and Shanahan, who's always 1:02:05.360 --> 1:02:07.560 wanted Kirk winning, got him. But that's not what happened here, 1:02:07.720 --> 1:02:08.080 all right. 1:02:08.200 --> 1:02:12.400 Next, this name confused me. Originally thought it was Marcus 1:02:12.480 --> 1:02:17.200 Valdez Scanling, but Marcus Valdez as me. Does Josh Allen 1:02:17.280 --> 1:02:20.920 deserve more credit for his game versus Kansas City considering 1:02:21.000 --> 1:02:23.000 Lamar's performance being far worse. 1:02:24.320 --> 1:02:27.640 Well, I here's what I will say. I do think 1:02:27.720 --> 1:02:33.080 Lamar's performance against Kansas City put Josh back in the 1:02:33.160 --> 1:02:37.120 pole position to be considered the second best quarterback in football. 1:02:38.240 --> 1:02:41.640 I think that the fact that Tua did nothing against 1:02:41.680 --> 1:02:45.240 this Chiefs defense, Baltimore did nothing against this Chiefs defense, 1:02:45.560 --> 1:02:49.440 and Josh had a decent game with obviously some mistakes, 1:02:49.440 --> 1:02:51.760 but a decent game I didn't get put him back 1:02:51.800 --> 1:02:54.080 in the pole position at least until we see Burrow 1:02:54.480 --> 1:02:57.120 back healthy. All Right, I gotta go, gotta go to 1:02:57.200 --> 1:03:00.760 do TV. Demon's keep healing up. Great job today, Great 1:03:00.840 --> 1:03:04.720 job by the Blue Duck folks. Sorry for producer Matt 1:03:04.760 --> 1:03:07.120 and the Commanders, but maybe Dan Quinn will be great. 1:03:07.120 --> 1:03:08.840 This time he did get to a Super Bowl as 1:03:08.880 --> 1:03:11.280 a head coach. Don't forget that with Atlanta they did, 1:03:11.320 --> 1:03:13.600 of course obviously blow it. I will talk to you 1:03:13.640 --> 1:03:16.480 guys on first things first today at three o'clock.
