Welcome 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 1: back to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,239 Speaker 1: My name is Dan Asis and I am joined by 11 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: a room feld with heroes Mark Sessler, Chris Westling and 12 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: Greg rosa Thal. What's up? Boys? See entirely too much 13 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: of each other right now? It is that is it's 14 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,520 Speaker 1: getting ridiculous. I mean, we had dinner last night. Usually 15 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: I feel dead inside for all the hours in between 16 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: when we taped the podcast, but I felt the live 17 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: last night with with you guys eating some food. Yeah, 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: we went to a dinner spot in Venice. I think 19 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: it's Venice. Is that where we were right at the 20 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: end of Kenny and uh, you know, we talked some 21 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: work matters and now here we are back again taping 22 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: in the morning. But I mean a certain point, it's 23 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: just going to be a meltdown where we just can't 24 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: can't be around each other anymore. It's just gonna happen eventually. 25 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: It just matter when it's a ticking time. But I 26 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: look at it the other way. I envisioned a world 27 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: where there's very little time in our lives that we're 28 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: not taping the podcast. It's just our whole life is 29 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: a NonStop podcast, like a Truman show. Types in there 30 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, we're just streaming. Now. Can we 31 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: ever get paid for this activity? You know what was 32 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: pion is about the love of the game. We get it, West, 33 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: You're right, unprofessional means not getting paid. I could see. 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: I mean, what if this podcast went on for another 35 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: four or five decades solid, and you know, by that 36 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: point all our families have just had enough of us, 37 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: and we just lived together, the four of us in 38 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: an apartment. That sounds horrifying. That seems like a step backwards. 39 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: We get along very well, and we'd have everyone we 40 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: level leave us because we're so co dependent on one another. 41 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: To do a podcast, Yeah that's but you know, show 42 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: business has that kind of grim But the show will 43 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: be side to it. The show would be huge. He 44 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: goes on, for four decades, would we be rich, we'd 45 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 1: be swimming as somehow we would. Still the four of 46 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: us have to financially. I don't want to be rich. Well, 47 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: you got more money than you do. Know how about that? 48 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: Let's say this for the West needs money? Podcast right? 49 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: Every podcast today is today's Thursday, March St Patrick's Day. 50 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: The Irish spend behind the glass. I spend all the 51 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: money on whiskey and beer. You know this one, Brendan. 52 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: Anybody know this song, the Wild Rover. I mean it 53 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: sounds familiar, but now I know Wild Irish Rose no 54 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: name never no no, never, no more. It's a good song. 55 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: Al right, Greg, your thoughts you're Irish? Yeah? I did. 56 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: I did live above a bar Mick Swiggins in New York. 57 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: Nothing brings out the the old amateurs more than St. 58 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: Patrick's Day in New York City. I mean, here's I 59 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: have a lot of fun memories on St. Patrick's Day 60 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: as an amateur myself, because, as I said on earlier 61 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: this week, very Irish town I grew up in on 62 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: St Patrick's Day. Everyone would cut school once you hit 63 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: like fifteen or sixteen and take the bus into Manhattan 64 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: because this is in the nineties, and you know, a 65 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: lot of places weren't carding on St. Patrick's Day, and 66 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: you'd go in there and almost always somebody would pee 67 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: their pants on the bus because it's a bunch of 68 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: sixteen year olds drinking and they can't hold their liquor, 69 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: so you would somebody would pee their pants, somebody would 70 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: get lost in the city and not come back. It 71 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: was it was a big part of the culture of 72 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: my town was to a big amateur day in Manhattan 73 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: on St. Patrick's Day. I mean, that's true of sixteen 74 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: year olds, but that's not what Irish culture is all about. 75 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: By the way, guys, Patrick, guy behind the glass name 76 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: the Irishman. It's ten twenty three am in Los Angeles 77 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: and he's not hammered at a bar. You're you're the 78 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: old No I'm not, because I've been in Los Angeles 79 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: for what ten years on St. Patty's Day and the 80 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: bars are on fire right now. Well, I mean there's 81 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: a reason we tape early today so I can just 82 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: leave at about why. That's what I'm Also, today is 83 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: a big day because not only is it St. Patrick's day. 84 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: It's also the opening of the March Madness n C 85 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: Double A tournament. So there's a lot of people speaking 86 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 1: of Colley and six that are missing from the office. 87 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: I've already noticed that are at bars. So this is 88 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: a big party day, I would say, right West, Yeah, 89 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 1: I've lived in the Savannah area for It's like I'm 90 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: not talking till I get a raise. That's not what 91 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying. But Savannah is up there with Chicago and 92 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: New York for the biggest St. Patrick's in the United States, 93 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: and I've been to several of those and they are insane, 94 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: very fun, very proud of my Irish culture, my mother's 95 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: side of the family. Anyway, today's show, it's a good one. 96 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: You would think, oh man, you guys just tape the show. 97 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 1: You must have nothing to talk about, Like what are 98 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: you even doing up there up here in the studio. No, 99 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: we got a lot to talk with because there's still 100 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: news happening.

That's motivating you. 113 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: He definitely goes by Big Red. I would think, well, 114 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: all right, so that's what's going on today, fun show. Uh, 115 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: everybody's in a good mood. I'm going to Vegas tomorrow, 116 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: by the way, and Spice Rack is gonna hook me up. 117 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,119 Speaker 1: I've been in contact with spice Rack of course.

Where's west So he drove 120 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 1: off into the desert to meet his male friend. It 121 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 1: all lines up from what I know about his desert 122 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: consigliari is that I what I meant to say, I 123 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: have spent one weekend in Vegas in my entire life, 124 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: and it would have been an absolute disaster if not 125 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: for Spice Rack. So came through Big Spice Rack. I 126 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: will get to meet Spice Rack and we'll talk about 127 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: his next appearance on the show. He's our one of 128 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: our college football experts speaking which Daniel Jeremiah going to 129 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: be on the show next week. Let's do some news. 130 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: Brandon sat for State Football Band thinking Irish guys. Dave Damask, 131 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: very good, Brandon, all right, let's start with the big 132 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: news on the throne of ease Martellez Bennett uh tight 133 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: end who had fallen out of favor with the Chicago Bears, 134 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: but undeniable talent twenty nine years old, and the Pats 135 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: who haven't had a one two punch since Aaron Hernandez. 136 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: Let what happened with Aaron Hernandez again, Greg, He's in 137 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: jail right now, very close to Foxboro. The jail that 138 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: he's in, he can hear the cheers. How many columns 139 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: have been written with that lead iron Hernandez sits in 140 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: a six by seven cell hearing the cheers from Foxboro? 141 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: I would say none, because I think everyone in the 142 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: New England area at this point tries to pretend Aaron 143 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: Hernandez never exists. I feel like I've read that exact 144 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: on my point that it's that's a popular trope of 145 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: sports writing. Aaron Hernandez was the star Gillette, and now 146 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: he he is the she is for another man. Greg's like, 147 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: if he's not on the Patriots roster, I won't read 148 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: a word about him anyway. Greg feels like he's being picked. 149 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: That's not I'm just looking for a little more humor. 150 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like, it's you're not playing ball. So 151 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: we'll move on Martel's. Bennett will replace, essentially on some level, 152 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Hernandez as that second tight end that really Tom 153 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: Brady can depend on, as a big red zone thread. 154 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: A trade went down, Bennett sent to the Pagriots in 155 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: exchange for a fourth round pick. The Pats also get 156 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: back a sixth round pick in the deal. So now, Greg, 157 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: nice little, big, towering targets in the red zone. You 158 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: love the straight because I, as a jetsman, hated it 159 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: because I thought it was so great for the Bats. Yeah, 160 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 1: it's great. He's in a contract year, so it might 161 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: be one and done. He'll have to be on his 162 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: best behavior. But they gave up nothing. The Bears just 163 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: decided to give him away. They traded him for a 164 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: move down fifties OTTs in the third day of the draft, 165 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: so they basically got Martellis Bennett for a one year. Look. See, 166 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: this is a win now type of team. And I 167 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: like Martellis Bennett because he's versatile. He's known as a 168 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: great blocker. Now you've got two guys that are great blockers, 169 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: great receivers. You got just receivers. He can flood the 170 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: middle of the field. That's where Tom Brady's at his best. 171 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: It's got to give them a lot of options. They 172 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: have the two most athletic, most monstrous tight ends in 173 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: the league. Now, yeah, two guys who are basically six 174 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: seven to seventy and great athletes. Martellis Bennett is only 175 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,719 Speaker 1: one year removed from ninety catches and nine yards with 176 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: Jake Cutler. Last year. He missed some games to rib injuries, 177 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: and probably he wasn't playing with the best attitude because 178 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: he wanted a new contract from the Bears and he 179 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: was disgruntled. But go to a new place play for 180 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl ring, well, he certainly was a headache 181 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: for the Bears. I mean, they've been trying to trade 182 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: him for almost a year and a half. I mean, 183 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: they've wanted to move this guy, but it was really 184 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 1: Belichick with the Aaron Hernandez Gronk pairing that came up 185 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: with the duel height end like past catching tight end 186 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: scenario that caused Rex Ryan when he's with the Jets, 187 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: absolute nightmares, and he changed his whole defense to try 188 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: to counter it. And it's almost surprising that it's taken 189 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: this long for them to get another player like this 190 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 1: in the building. But I think it's gonna be great 191 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: for Tom Brady because this is exactly it fits their 192 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: system so well. He's twenty nine years old, so he 193 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: should have some prime years left or at least one year. 194 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: However long this last, but it does. It did strike 195 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: me a little bit when rap Sheet reported on NFL 196 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: Network yesterday that Chicago had been actively trying to trade 197 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: him for eighteen months. And you know, they were so 198 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: happy to move on with Zach Miller, who was a 199 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: nice player who had a nice second half last year. 200 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: But come on, um, that strikes me as a red flag. 201 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: Greg but not his fourth team. He's twenty nine years old, 202 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: he's been up had bro but there's a reason you're 203 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: on your fourth team. Do you have concerns that he'll 204 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: be able to fit into the patriot way, buttoned up 205 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: culture or will it potentially not work out and he 206 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: becomes a headache and he's gone by week eight. He No, 207 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: I'm not concerned about that. I think there's a chance 208 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: will just be there one year because they didn't really 209 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: invest anything long term in him, and if they just 210 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: kind of get the field that this isn't a guy 211 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: they want for good, it's just a one year thing, 212 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: which is which is fine. I think they get they 213 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: could get a lot of value out of him. But 214 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: he's gonna be playing for a contract, he's gonna have, 215 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna be having a lot of motivation, and they 216 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: have a pretty good track record of getting people to 217 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: straighten out. Not a perfect track record. I mean, Albert 218 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: Haynesworth was there, but right, But Corey Dylan and Randy 219 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: Moss are two of the best examples possible of guys 220 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: who were disgruntled elsewhere and came and blew the doors 221 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: off into and I think he's so different than Aaron Hernandez. 222 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: It's worth pointing out Aaron Hernandez was just well, you 223 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: said he was monstrous that off of off the field, 224 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: that's true. He's he's he was monstrous, But on the 225 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: field he was basically a souped up wide receiver, which 226 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: Martellis Bennett is not. Uh, he's really known when he 227 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: was in Dallas as one of the better blocking tight 228 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: ends in the league. And so the versatility that you 229 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: can now have where defense is won't know who's going 230 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: out and who's staying in. And in the run game 231 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: with Bennett and Gronk, and you just think they have 232 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 1: no one that can really go deep on the outside. 233 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: The tight ends are deep, but they and and Tom 234 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: Brady Brady can't throw the deep ball any but and 235 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: by the way, Tom Brady does not throw outside the 236 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: numbers as well as he used to. He certainly didn't 237 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: in the NFC Championship game. But think of the people 238 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: you're flood in the middle of his own with Dion Lewis, 239 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, Martellis Bennett, Rob Gronkowski, Chris Hogan, Dandol. I 240 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: don't think Danny Avendola will necessarily be there. Pro Football 241 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: Talk report, but that that's up in the air. May 242 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: There was a report last night. He might be a cut. 243 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: He makes similar money to Martella's Bennett. And that's the 244 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: Jets about Danny Amendole. Yeah, almost single handedly won the games. 245 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: He was a big asset, and he was a big 246 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: asset in their Super Bowl run. But yeah, the best 247 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: the best thing about this trade is, how are you 248 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: gonna double team Gronk if you've got Edelman Dion Lewis 249 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,079 Speaker 1: and Martell has benn In on the field exactly. Sounds 250 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 1: like Greg is as a fan, is heading into a 251 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: rough patch here the Throne of eas. Indeed, West rode 252 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: a nice piece which I read yesterday breaking down and 253 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: also some other off How would I know there are 254 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 1: other components to the post below that initial lead where 255 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: you broke down other just came back. Greg clued in. Uh. 256 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: Other Patriots news related to the Bear Shae McClellan, who 257 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: uh was a former first round pick in two thousand twelve, 258 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: did not really work out in Chicago, but he signs 259 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: a three year deal with the Pats and and uh, 260 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: you know the Belichick mafia spinning this by the way, 261 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 1: as oh, we've got are all our first round picks 262 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: taken away and all our draft picks? But wiring rounders, 263 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: that second rounders. We have figured out how to beat 264 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: the system. Once again. No one said that about Shane McClellan. 265 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: Do you like that signing. It's good signing for st 266 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: Patrick's day. Yeah, I mean it's worth a shot. It's 267 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: a position to need say that, so you never know 268 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: he'll make three Pro Bowls. It's where the shot it's 269 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: gonna work out just fine. Got Jonathan Freeney right now, 270 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: maybe as you're starting middle linebacker. So it's definitely a 271 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: position I think they'll address in the draft. To moving on, 272 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: So good news for the Pats A day after I 273 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: thought it was not so good news with Chandler Jones. 274 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: They now get another offensive piece. Pats are doing okay. 275 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: Now we gotta find out Tom Brady is playing sixteen 276 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: games this year. That's the next thing. It's still floating 277 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: out there, hanging out there. We'll talk about that he'll 278 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: play nineteen and win the Super Bowl. Honestly, though, there 279 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: is a lot of buzz that that suspension is gonna 280 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: come back. Whether you believe in it or not, is 281 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: a different us. Crazy people plug in on the plug 282 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: in on the court situations, and has had no case 283 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: all along. I like it. We've basically happened or that 284 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: story because everyone's just tired of it. I don't want 285 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: to talk about it, but it is something that's the 286 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: new judge not too excited about the NFL's angle. That's 287 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: you're right, courts and Uh. In other news, let's talk 288 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. Uh still a member of the forty Niners. 289 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: And I don't know. The longer this goes on, maybe 290 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: he won't get traded. Who knows, um, But here's what 291 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly had to say. For the time being, he 292 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: is one of Chip Kelly's quarterbacks and potentially a starter. 293 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: Kelly spoke to Matt Burrows Barrows of the Sacramento b 294 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: at San Jose's State's Pro day workout this week. He 295 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: had this to say about Cap. If he's here on 296 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: April four, We're going to coach the heck out of him, 297 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: and he's going to work his and this was in parentheses. 298 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: Tail could be but could be buttocks could be asked, 299 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: can be? Heiny, Uh work his tail off. We're gonna 300 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: coach the heck out of him. That's what Chip Kelly says. 301 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: Come here, mr, We're gonna coach the heck out of you. 302 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: It's it is. I mean, Chip Kelly, the innovator needs 303 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: to learn how to come up with some new phrases. Well, 304 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: this is the This is an example of a guy 305 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: who was went to the San Jose State Pro Day 306 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: and there was a reporter there and he's like, oh, no, exactly, 307 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: and he suddenly asked to answer a question because he 308 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: he has to say something. Kaepernick is on the team 309 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: at this moment, and what's he gonna say is another quote? 310 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: Is he on the team? Is he not on the team. 311 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: It's never been a question. I'm excited to work with Colin. 312 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't believe a word. It's never been a question. 313 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick literally requested a trade from the forty Niners. 314 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: Like touch the heck out of you, Mr. It's never 315 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: been a question except for from Colin Kaepernick and apparently 316 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: the general manager. It sounds like Kaepernick wants out and 317 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: Balky wants Kaepernick out, that he's ready to move on. 318 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: But I think there's I think Kelly would is kind 319 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: of thinking, who's who are my quarterbacks? I haven't playing Gabber, 320 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: I might I'd rather have blame Gabber and Colin Kaepernick 321 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: than just blain gabber, you know. I mean, before all 322 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: this Kaepernick stuff happened, that Kaepernick was a drawl to 323 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly that he even would have wanted and tried 324 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: to trade for him if you landed somewhere else. So 325 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: I don't think that Chip Kelly's lying, but he's kind 326 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: of looking past the awkward nonsense happening with this. I 327 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: don't think he wants. You don't think he wants and 328 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,719 Speaker 1: might I don't think chim Kelly wants to have suddenly 329 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: one U. I tend to agree with Mark because what 330 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 1: what's the harm of having Kaepernick there? It's better to 331 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: have him and gabber than just gabber. I did a 332 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: big break I did a breakdown on the site, just 333 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: as Kaepernick deserve another chance, you know, looking back at 334 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,479 Speaker 1: last year's tape, like trying to see like maybe it 335 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 1: wasn't quite as bad as as we thought, but it 336 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: was as bad as we thought. They had limited him 337 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: to the point where if he had been a rookie 338 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: just starting out, you would have said, Wow, they're really 339 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: they're really have the training wheels on for this rookie. 340 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: They really don't. They don't really don't trust them at all. 341 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: And this was a five year veteran that they had 342 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,959 Speaker 1: just given supposedly a hundred and thirty five million dollars 343 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: with air quotes for that that. Don't don't sell yourself short. 344 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: By the way, pause, Kevin Patrick must be a review 345 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: time because tucked within his post on Kaepernick around the 346 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: nfl IS, Greg Rosenthal offered the definitive breakdown paper Kaepernick's 347 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: worth on Wednesday, So everybody should check that out. Hey, 348 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: all you writers out there planning Kaepernick think piece, it's 349 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 1: overished ship, it's sailed and it already sunk. That was 350 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: it's been defined. That was the one note in Greg's 351 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 1: You know what, Dan, if you're thinking about no, it 352 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: was like Greg's employee review was like only one note 353 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: is like be more definitive. I was like, what what 354 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: do I do with that? Uh? In other news, uh, 355 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: the league's competition committee will be getting together beginning this 356 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 1: weekend in Boca Raton, Florida. What a what a heist 357 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: that is? It's like, oh, sorry, honey, sorry, wife and 358 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: kids gotta got league meetings to go to off to 359 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 1: Boca Raton. Well, they typically bring their wife and kids. 360 00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: This feels like something that Cessler would try to go 361 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: to because it would be a nice journey. Mark, when 362 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: are you leaving? You're leaving it? You are going, I 363 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: am going going Saturday.

This is how 371 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: you operate at that venue. But this is where Greg 372 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: and I when we went, we saw Bill Belichick and 373 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: Lynda Holiday. No, no, no no, But I'm saying at the 374 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: league that was yeah, they were playing tennis. What's her name, 375 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: Linda Holiday? And we've seen Chip Kelly jogging around with 376 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: various individuals. I mean, everyone's just hell, it's a it's 377 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: an East coast flight. I don't even think it's direct. 378 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: So Mark really does have a good He had to 379 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 1: go there on Saturday because it starts, so he's gonna 380 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: get there.

Is the annual meeting? Is the 384 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:08,479 Speaker 1: famous West around the NFL legend of Greg Rosenthal Mark 385 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: Sessler's jog through the park with anchor. Yeah, that's somehow historic, 386 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: that's somehow embarrassing people running together. You're in the same 387 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: group who does Soul cycle and P nine the accident 388 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: some in like somehow we're not.

Yes, I do? Or false? 391 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 1: The NFL is offering a free so cycle. Also, you 392 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: and and one of the gentleman downstairs, David Eli are 393 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: taking it up.

I am testing it tomorrow. I'm letting. 399 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: Various editors from our office went and sent out photos 400 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: last night. Had a great time. NFL media inside of 401 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: Ian rap Report reported Thursday that the automatic ejection rule 402 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: suggested by rog is expected to pass pass. The new 403 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: rule would eject any player flag for two personal fouls 404 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: in a game. That's interesting, they should call it the O. D. 405 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: B Rule, um Mark, Since you are going to be 406 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: involved with a conference call and a little bit on this, 407 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: and you're obviously going, is there anything else that is 408 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: saucy that could be coming out of this? Well, the 409 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: thing that stood out to me was that what there 410 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: is going to be no change to the catch rule, 411 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: which is one of the most annoying, lingering aspects to 412 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: watching football of late. And they're essentially what they're gonna 413 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: try to do, they say, is a continued effort for 414 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: more public education on how the rule is officiated. Come on, 415 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: that's insulting. We all are so simple tons that we 416 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 1: need we need the catch ull explain to us. You know, 417 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: he needs an education, the competence aition committee. Come on, hey, 418 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: stick it to him. West Mike McCarthy in January, I 419 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: don't know what the hell it catches anymore. It's ridiculous. 420 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: One of the best head coaches, one of the longest 421 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: tenured head coaches in the NFL, has no idea what 422 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: your role means, and you want to educate us fix 423 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: your broken role. Damn bro It's tiring. Come on, It's 424 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,360 Speaker 1: the most basic elemental act in the sport, and nobody, 425 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: from the officials to the players to the coaches, knows 426 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: what it means. It's undermining the integrity of the game. 427 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:34,719 Speaker 1: But looks for but look for those pamphlets on explaining it. 428 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: It does seem like a very quiet you know, some 429 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: years there's a lot of talker, you know, interesting rule changes, 430 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 1: unless they drop some surprises in this conference call that's 431 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: coming up on Thursday. Really does not feel like that 432 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,239 Speaker 1: this year. I mean, if the if the sexiest thing 433 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: we have is the ejection rule, which seems like a 434 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: home run. It's a good idea, but there's not much 435 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: to talk about. It's just a bunch of like tweaks 436 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: to the chop block chop block rule and tweaks too 437 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: low hits on quarderback but nothing nothing major. Eight o'clock 438 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 1: to light Titan's wide receiver Kendall Wright on former teammate 439 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: Robert Griffin the third. He's coming back with a vengeance 440 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: in mark any chance. R G three has a big 441 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: comeback here. How about its signed first? No, I don't 442 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: see it. I think he's seen as a backup. We heard, 443 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,400 Speaker 1: by the way, we heard these articles last year at 444 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: this time, how upgrade he looked in the office. James 445 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: Laronitas cut by the Rams, of course, has agreed to 446 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: a deal with the Saints. Chris Wessling, you do not 447 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: think this is gonna make a big difference to you. 448 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: Never forces a turnover is a liability in the wrong game, 449 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: and the Saints are coming off a season in which 450 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: they earned the worst grade in the history of Football 451 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: Outsiders defensive metrics. The Arizona Cardinals waste no time replacing 452 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: Jonathan Cooper. Evan mathis Uh signed to a one year 453 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: contract worth six million. Get the job done, greg Cardinals 454 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: are doing a great job in fre agency. They do 455 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: this year after year. They sit out in the first 456 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: three or four days, and they tend to get a 457 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: lot of good bargains like got Chandler Jones and Evan Madness. 458 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: The Ravens had a glut of safety's um entering Thursday 459 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: or Wednesday. They got rid of one. Will Hill released 460 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: and then we learned quickly that he's facing a ten 461 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: game suspension for a drug violation. Mark. He keeps getting 462 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: suspended four It's a shame because he's a good player, 463 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: I think. But you know, as long as you don't 464 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: drink a beer on an airplane, you'll be fine. You'll 465 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: be back to mario' davis. One of the great players 466 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: in the history of the New York Jets, has left 467 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: a team and signed a two year, eight million dollar 468 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: deal with the Cleveland Browns. Believe Landmark, the Browns are 469 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: on the board. Well, it's telling the Jets to not 470 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: want this guy back on any level. So he's okay. 471 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: It's not bad. The Vikings get an offensive line and 472 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: Andre Smith strikes a one year deal with three and 473 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: a half million up to four and a half with incentives. 474 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: West makes sense, right, You've got Adrian Peters in the building. 475 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 1: Signed some guys like a block for him. Pick up 476 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: Andre Smith now expoon two really good run blocking offensive lineman. 477 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 1: Andre Smiths not coming off his best season though, Teddy Bridgewater, 478 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: Uh excuse me. Mike Wallace said this week that he 479 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: needed a good quarterback after signing with the Ravens. Now 480 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: he walks it back, not surprisingly. I love my coaches 481 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: and teammates in Minnesota. I would never say anything negative 482 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: about Teddy. By the way, bro, your quarterback was Teddy 483 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: Bridgewater and you just said you need a good quarterback 484 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: to thrive. You bang them, don't back off. Now, Well, 485 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: maybe he's saying that he's still throwing shade at Ryan 486 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: Tannehill in Miami. Oh, enough of that. This is what 487 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: the Ravens inherited. Have fun with it. Uh. Tom Brady 488 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: filled out his bracket. Can we give Kevin Patrick a raise? 489 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: How many stories has he written today? Well, someone's got 490 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: to do it. Yeah, we're just we're just pop stars. Now. 491 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: Tom Brady filled out his final his men's tournament bracket. 492 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: He's got Michigan going all the way. He's a home 493 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: or Wes. I don't really care about little kids playing basketball, 494 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: know what that is? That is not right? By the way, 495 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: what is up with the kissing cousins hating all sports 496 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: all sorts? Oh, it's so weird. The most crooked institution 497 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: in America. You just ruined in clock Delight because you 498 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: couldn't control yourself. Sorry correction. Nothing could ruin the eight 499 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: o'clock Delight, but the kissing Cousins. You guys don't like 500 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: any other sports, but I have I have a beef 501 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: with you. What, let's hear it because I commented on 502 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: another sport yesterday, letting you three know that rugby players 503 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: they draw a lot of action, a lot of female action. 504 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,239 Speaker 1: And there you guys, Oh that's absurd, all right, Well 505 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: why would anyone who's a big, giant rugby player d 506 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 1: looked at fondly by females. All Suddenly my Twitter timeline 507 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: is on fire with people from all over the world 508 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: right in me. Chris Brooks writes, listening to the Around 509 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: the NFL podcast, and one can confirm your comments about 510 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: women and rugby players. They get them all, says the 511 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: guy that plays rugby and thinks he does. The only 512 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: people talking about this are former rugby players or guys 513 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: who had some insecurities. Saw the rugby players come in. 514 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: They were intimidating. Andrew Torrance rights Australia, New Zealand, USA, 515 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: rugby is very popular with the fairer sex case closed. Um, 516 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: all right, I mean that doesn't necessarily get to the 517 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: heart of the matter, which is your hatred of all 518 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: sports that aren't the NFL. But I love baseball, Major 519 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: League Baseball, runs a crappy operation. But I love the 520 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: sport itself, and I love basketball. I just don't like 521 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: watching little kids play sports for a crooked institution. I 522 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: don't need college sports in my life, but it's just 523 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 1: a matter of time. If I had time, i'd like 524 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: other sports. Come on, you could ask a lot of 525 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: people west about the company that you work for, and 526 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,239 Speaker 1: then maybe they want to say the nicest. So I'm 527 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: gonna say I think you could. You could match the 528 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 1: n C Double A against any institution ever created, as 529 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: far as how crooked it. We should get Zach Goldman 530 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: the gold Standard on to talk about EFA. Please. That 531 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: could be the FIFA podcast June the gold Standard. By 532 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: the way, on Mount Rushmore, Brandon McGinnis, the Irishman trying 533 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: to get up on Mount Rushmore gold centers already there. 534 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: He's gotten hyper political. I don't know if anybody follows 535 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: him that listens to the show. He is really upset 536 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,479 Speaker 1: about this Donald Trump's situation. My wrong, He's pumped up. 537 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: He's not the only one. Passionate, passionate man, passionate group. 538 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: Greg who are you voting for? I'm not gonna we're 539 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: gonna talk politics definitely not Donald Trump. That is the 540 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: politics podcast coming up later this summer. I probably will 541 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: forget to register and not vote. That's oh, Greg refuses 542 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: to take part in the process of our coach. I'll try. 543 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: I will, I will. I probably will vote California, maybe 544 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: the general election. I'll wait till the general election. This 545 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: feels like a good one to vote in. No, I did, 546 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: I will. You gotta play defense and this did I did? 547 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: I did the last two Obama ones. But you know, alright, 548 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: so let's let's play a little game here. It's called 549 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 1: over slash under. I could just smell the tweets coming 550 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: from that last exchange. You know, you gotta participate in democracy. 551 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: Block them, block them. Yeah, well, you know that's just 552 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: like your opinion. Man, pick up the chisels. Get to 553 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: work on Brandon's mug. All right. Over, under time, We're 554 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: gonna go through some uh NFL football players that have 555 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: been in the news in the last couple of weeks, 556 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: and I'll set some statistical barriers and you know, make 557 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: your decision as if your life depends on it, Like 558 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: you put your entire life savings uh into getting this right. 559 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: So what I'm saying is don't be flipping about this exercise. 560 00:29:53,160 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: Be a professional. Okay, yep, Um, I'll pay you for this, West, 561 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: It's about twenty dollar bill if you perform here. Let's 562 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: start with Martell's Bennett, who, of course none of our 563 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: bosses listen to the podcast. It's um, Martell's Bennett is 564 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: now a member of the Pats. There's some mouths to 565 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: feed West, you'd say, right in that offense, some guys 566 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: are gonna be wanting some targoes short for targets. You 567 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: gotta shorten that that long long target targets a lot 568 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: of targos out there, and Martell's Bennet should get his 569 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: fair share in a two tight end set with gronk Um. 570 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: So I will let's throw out all three major statistical 571 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: basic stats for him, and we'll do an over under 572 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: for Martell's Bennett, and I'll start with sixty receptions Mark 573 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: Sessler mm hmm under slightly West under Greg. Yeah, I 574 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: would go under just because of the amount of options there. 575 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to see him as their 576 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: number one or two receivers. So the group's um. The 577 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: group think here is that Bennett could be a nice addition, 578 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: but won't be some monster in this offense. I think 579 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: he'd be great, but you're talking fantasy numbers, all right. 580 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: I changed my answer now that I think of it, 581 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: because he's not gonna go deep. He goes. I'm gonna 582 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: go like sixty three for seven fifty something like that. 583 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: I had sixty eight as a slash over under. Eight 584 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: would be a career high in touchdowns. Right But he 585 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: is playing with one of the best red zone quarterbacks 586 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: in NFL history. Tom Brady historically throws about forty touchdowns 587 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: a year, So I mean he's there. To me, he's 588 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: their number three receiver right now. I'd put him ahead 589 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: of Amendola if he stays on the team, ahead of Hogan. Uh, 590 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: he's behind Gronk and in Edelman. All right, brock Oswilder, 591 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: the news starting quarterback for the Houston Texans. Touchdowns over 592 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: under Mark m hmm. I'm gonna go over by one 593 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,239 Speaker 1: old down the middle, Cessler under. Who's catching all these 594 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: touchdowns beside? Yeah, I've gotta catch a lot of them. 595 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: Twelve for him. I'm gonna go under. And if a 596 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: if an NFL player starts sixteen games at this point, 597 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: they're fairly likely to get over twenty five touchdowns. But 598 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: I'm skeptical that this offense is gonna be particularly better 599 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: than last year, so I'm gonna go Boyer had nineteen 600 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: and eleven appearances, nine starts, I could mean for the Texas. 601 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: One of the reasons why the Texans uh looked a 602 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: little better than I think they really were, was because 603 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: of the schedule. Last year gets harder this year. About 604 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: fourteen interceptions for Brock, I'll go under because he holds 605 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: the ball too long and takes sacks instead of throwing interceptions. 606 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: Mark uh push, he will have fourteen a little down 607 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: the middle. That's called a push. That's Gutsie. I'll go under. 608 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: I think this's gotta be a run first type of offense, 609 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: and quarterbacks don't throw interceptions anymore. This is the new NFL. 610 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: No one throws interceptions. I'm gonna coach the heck out 611 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: of him. He's gonna throw zero and its options. Chandler 612 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: Jones new pass rush monster, Arizona Cardinals. I figured you'd 613 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 1: say that fourteen and a half sacks definitely under that. 614 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: It's only two more than his career high. That's a 615 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: huge year. I'm projecting a huge year. How about that, 616 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, I will go under. Wonder going under, I mean, 617 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: I love that defense. I'll be sorry he'll have sixteen 618 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: sacks this year again. Wow, you might be right. He 619 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: is a absolute freak athlete that I feel like has 620 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: never quite lived up to all of his potential. I 621 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: think he still can be better, which is what scares 622 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: He can be better. He's he's motivated for in a 623 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: contract year. He just got traded, which some guys uses 624 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: motto where he's likely to get injured and not come 625 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: through with sixteen sacks. In fact, his brother Star even 626 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: know if you guys knew that also, Arthur Jones speaking 627 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: with a brother, that's true, Chris Arthur Joseph First Long 628 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: probably as a brother, right, he does plays in the 629 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: Garden for the Bears exactly. Father Chris Long the replacement 630 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:16,240 Speaker 1: of mom for Chandler Jones, a man that West said 631 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: on yesterday's podcast, we'll mostly replace Chandler Jones production. So 632 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: I think I know where he's going with this. Six 633 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: and a half sacks over under double digits. That's right, 634 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: That's that's just the right number. Thank you, you've done 635 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: it again. Thank you. I'll go over just because that's 636 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,399 Speaker 1: what I want to see happen. But I don't think 637 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: he's gonna play a thousand snaps. I mean to me, 638 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: he's a six hundred snap situational pass. Rush's thirty years old, 639 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: Santa Monica resident, last three boards. Yeah, back when the 640 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 1: l A Raiders were here. Last three years, eight and 641 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: a half, five and four. So oh, I was reading 642 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: the wrong way. Well, he's been in eight and a half, 643 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: one and three and his miss each of last two years. 644 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: We'll see um, I will put yeah. I think it's 645 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: gonna be right around there. Mark, what do you think 646 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: his number will be? Five and a half. He's a 647 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: good run start, He's not He's not the best pure 648 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 1: pass thresher in the world. Lamar Miller the new running 649 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: back for the Houston Text. By the way, Chris Long 650 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: is gonna be like the most loved Patriot player. You 651 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 1: can just see it happens. He's good at social media. 652 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 1: People are gonna love them some. Chris career high in 653 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,359 Speaker 1: sacks is higher than Chandler Jones career high in sex 654 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 1: and one. It was a long time ago, bro yep um. 655 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: By the way, Chris Long and I don't want to 656 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: take credit for this. I don't remember who said in 657 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: the newsroom, but Chris Long and Martell's Bennett going to 658 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: the Patriots on the same day does feel like a 659 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: loss for NFL like personalities. They can they can still 660 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 1: have the old Twitter. Martelli Spenett, you could already tell 661 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 1: he called himself a dandelion in the wind. But for 662 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: the most part he had already started talking like a 663 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,959 Speaker 1: Patriot on the conference call. He was pretty pretty bored. 664 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 1: But I think Chris Long will be good. He's good 665 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: on Twitter. They're not gonna They're gonna gonna pamp the 666 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: Tampa down. I mean, the Long brothers really have to 667 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: be among the best Twitter players. They will be entertaining, 668 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 1: sometimes thought provoking. Good job by the Longs, the Manchurion 669 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: tight end now playing for the Patriot totally torpedo this game. 670 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: We'll be We'll be working with the Longs in NFL 671 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: now in a couple of years. I can't say Kyle 672 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: Kyle's got a long way to go. I do have 673 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: some thoughts on that thing. He's just starting his career out. 674 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller Texans running back twelve hundred yards, Mark Sessler 675 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: scrimmage or rushing rushing yards under under. Okay, he's gonna 676 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:49,439 Speaker 1: run for thirteen sixty one guys, So you miss Chase 677 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 1: Montana also known as Chase Daniel backup quarterback by the 678 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 1: time being with the Philadelphia Eagles eight starts, eight starts, 679 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: I go under, but Evil finish the year as the 680 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: starter and will be the starter heading into the off season. Wow, 681 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm a pragmatic man, and uh, you 682 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,240 Speaker 1: would have some long odds in Vegas to to get 683 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: eight starts out of Chase Daniels. Just the odds are 684 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: not They're not with you. Vegas has never seen Sam 685 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,280 Speaker 1: Bradford's need before. Yeah, you need. You need an injury, 686 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: I think, and some really bad or his shoulder or 687 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: any other body part that Sam brad with pragmatic actually 688 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,959 Speaker 1: translates for Greg into recovering gambling addict. There's uh, there's 689 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: some parallel there. You wish that was true. You make 690 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: up these little narratives. It would be funds to read 691 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 1: like a Greg memoir where that was like chapter six, Yeah, 692 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,760 Speaker 1: like chapter five, the Strawberry Truck, Chapter six, my first 693 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: my first days in at Rhoda World, making five dollars 694 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: a week, trying to pay that New York rent. You 695 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: gotta make some extra glop somewhere. Uh. Marvin Jones seventy 696 00:37:53,480 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: two receptions under yeah, our Detroit Lion, of course, seventy 697 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:09,720 Speaker 1: two catches from Marvin Jones under injury prone Sam Matthew 698 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 1: Stafford sending you know, passes way over his head his 699 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: career high sixty five as the second or third fiddle 700 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 1: in the Bengals a couple more. Olivier Vernon in JPP 701 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: fifteen combined to sacks over JPP might get that with 702 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: his left hand alone. Vernon's gonna need thirteen and a 703 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: half of those. JTPP can't bring anyone down anymore. He's 704 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: wearing a glove. Now there's no club. It's a big 705 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 1: game changer. I'm going under something bad is gonna happen here. 706 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick thirteen starts under under yeah. We usually laud 707 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: you with your over under numbers. This feels like way 708 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: too right. I think the number should be ten over 709 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: you did getting over. I'm gonna say, well, I think 710 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 1: it's did. He's got a good chance to start where 711 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: and he'll probably be the start of his stays in 712 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: San Francisco. Right, But I think wherever he is, he's 713 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 1: going to be in a situation where he's not even 714 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: guaranteed to start Week one, and that he's going to 715 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 1: have to play well to keep that starting up. Over 716 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:18,839 Speaker 1: Love It West. Finally, Greg Hardy, one team under und 717 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 1: under Hopefully, I guess I would take the push. I 718 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: think somebody would get him. Somebody was going to sign 719 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: him because people are desperate for pass rushers and could 720 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 1: put aside evil doing in a big spot former around 721 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: the NFL guests Greg Hardy, that's true. Should I put 722 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 1: that at one half team? We should find No, we 723 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 1: shouldn't find a sound drop. No, we shouldn't. Okay, that's it. Mark, 724 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: you need to go down, says because you're gonna get 725 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,320 Speaker 1: out of here, s Boker as tone. Mark really is 726 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: game in the system now. I was asked to go 727 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: and I said one word. I said, yes, whatever the 728 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: NFL needs, That's what I'm here for.

Now? Mark's 731 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,240 Speaker 1: walking out? He did not. He's just gonna taxi yet 732 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 1: all literally, I mean everything is this is perfect. By 733 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: the way, from Mark. Not only does he get to 734 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: get away, he gets to go to a tropical location, 735 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: gets the uh rub elbows with league people as Dan 736 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: shakes his elbows. She likes to do. Um. There was 737 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: a expense account essentially where he'll be able to write 738 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,399 Speaker 1: awful lot of things that he eats and drinks, will 739 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 1: not eat, but drinks, and he gets the solid the 740 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: solidarity that we know we know he needs solitude, solitude, 741 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 1: excuse me that we know he needs. You know they 742 00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: don't come boss, you know for nothing. I've strategized all 743 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: this out. It's gonna make for a happier, more productive 744 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler. MM I like that over over on Mark 745 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: being happier over under Mark happy when he gets back 746 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: take the over, Yeah, he'll be happy. I'll be optimistic 747 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: and say the over. But it could go the opposite. 748 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 1: Wa becasse. He'll fly back and then be once again 749 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 1: in the middle of that. You know it'll put him 750 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 1: in a good It'll put him in a good space. 751 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: The expense report coming. It could be a factor here. 752 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: And don't don't underrate the enjoyment of being the intrepid reporter. 753 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,360 Speaker 1: He like does like likes getting in there.
