Speaker 1: money and gold Standard would get along gold standard for

35
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,320

38
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: spent some time in England. Now he's back in the US.

39
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: So we had a nice lunch with a gold standard.

40
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: Always good to see him. This is the Thursday edition

41

Speaker 1: of The Round. The NFL podcast, sponsored as always by

44
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler wrote a banger because you know, I don't

45
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: know if anybody's noticed. The last few shows we you know,

46
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,320

48
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,520

50
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: Today we'll talk about your banger. And the true shame

51
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: is it's not even that original, uh of a departure

52
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: from what we talked about on the last show when

53
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 1: we talked about where Romo would land up. I just expend,

54
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: just took it out to other quarterbacks. Beat it's February

55
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: twenty something. Of your of your This one involves Kirk

56
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: Cousins and some other guys the good. So we'll go

57
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: through the carousel. Also, we will be opening up the

58
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: mail bag. We love to open up the mail bag

59
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: because that allows us to connect with our listeners all

60
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: over Memories firm. Yes, it does less of former US

61
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,359

62
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: called the ts in the business. He worked for the U. S. Mails.

63
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,720

64
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: with called the U. S. Mails. Back in the old day,

65
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: nobody at the Covington, Kentucky Post Office called it the U. S. Mails.

66
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: My father who were like subgrade chipping dales. The U.

67
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: S Mails. That is what nobody wants to see a

00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: mailman naked. Just don't google that whatever you do. Not

69
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: where I was going there, but no circumstances. Uh. And also,

70
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: of course we'll go through what's going on in the news,

71
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: and before we do that, we will formally say hello

72
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: to the verset lady over there on the NFL podcast.

73
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: She is new money. Hey guys, what's up? Oh? Not much,

74
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just chilling back here having a great time.

75
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: You played the Sleeping Beauty drop, and um, listen, I didn't.

76
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: It wasn't familiar to me. I still want to. I

77
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: want to play like a more famous Disney jingle when

78
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: we introduced last said, but we need to get a

79
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: shadowy league figure on our side about this. But I'm

80
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: not sure which one to approach. I think I know

81
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: who the person is so we're gonna work on that

82
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,679
Speaker 1: because I think you need a more recognizable Disney jingle

83
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: when we introduce you, all right, you deserve it, all right, gentlemen.

84
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: So that's todays show. Let's do some news while are

85
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: you smiling? Because I love football, sir. Let's start in

86
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: Minnesota where Teddy Bridgewater uh suffered that catastrophic knee injury

87
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: uh last summer, one of the strangest injuries in all

88
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: my years following football. UM. He planted his leg in

89
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: a in a practice and the knee just went a

90
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 1: major injury and the the hope at the time was

91
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 1: that he'd be ready for this upcoming season after missing

92
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: the twenty sixteen season, which of course led to the

93
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: Vikings trading for Sam Bradford. But it still sounds like

94
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: he is far from out of the woods Teddy Bridgewater.

95
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: On Thursday, General manager Rick Spielman declined to say with

96
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 1: certainty that Bridgewater will ever play again. According to USA

97
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: Today's Tom Placero, Spielman said everybody's hoping. The GM added

98
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: the Bridgewater still not doing any football activities. UH. Twenty

99
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: four years old. He dislocated the knee and tours a

100
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 1: c l in a practice last September. Um a sad story,

101
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, and you hope you see him again. But

102
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 1: uh as star as the Vikings are concerned again, the

103
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: trade for Sam Bradford is looking even better now because

104
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: there's a very good chance he's going to be your

105
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: quarterback in two thousands seventeen as well. It seems. Yeah,

106
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: when the trade for Bradford went down, I remember being

107
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: in the office that day and it was a weekend

108
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: day and there were not a lot of people around,

109
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: and my initial thought was, well, this probably the Mike

110
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: zimmer A. You don't have a lot of years to

111
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 1: prove that you're the guy for the job, and you

112
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: and you have a good team here, and we thought

113
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: that Vikings team coming off a playoff appearance, could go

114
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: right back again. That it was a move that said

115
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: we're not giving up on the season. We're gonna get

116
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: the best quarterback available. It's not the best quarterback in

117
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: the league, but it's Sam Bradford. But now it does

118
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 1: look like a truly smart employ on their part because

119
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: they maybe they knew at that point, maybe not three

120
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 1: they do. They must have known that there's no reason

121
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: to believe that Teddy Bridgewater is gonna come back a

122
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: late season obviously, but maybe even not for the beginning

123
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: of next season. And now it looks like we don't

124
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,679
Speaker 1: know what the future. Well, I think they just don't

125
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: have any idea, and I think they knew when the

126
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 1: injury happened that they could be a multi year process

127
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 1: and we just don't know. Mike Florio, um my old

128
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: boss at PFD, who's usually pretty tied in with the

129
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: vicant he said, even the speculation saying likely not likely,

130
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: is almost off base because it's not like Teddy Bridgewater's

131
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: doctors know where he's gonna be at. He's still relatively

132
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: early in this process, which says which says a lot.

133
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: You don't have football injuries like this where six seven

134
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: months after it you're still early in the process. When

135
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: it happened, it was described as a torn a c L,

136
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: dislocated knee and other structural damage. The way it was described,

137
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: I thought immediately, this is probably worse than Marcus Lattimore,

138
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: worse than Willis mcgahey, And immediately people were saying he

139
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: might not ever play football again. And on top of it,

140
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: so much changes with any football team over two seasons

141
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: that if he gets healthy, there's no guarantee that when

142
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: he comes back he's the starter for this team on

143
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: any level. Well, right, I mean Sam Bradford could either

144
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: be great this year and lead them to the playoffs,

145
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: or they could be six and ten and have a

146
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: different person picking players. A lot of people think this

147
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: is kind of a Boomer bust, do or die year

148
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: for Rick Spielman, their general manager has been there for

149
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: a long time. Moving on to other quarterback talk in

150
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: the NFC North, soon to be former NFC North quarterback

151
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: j Cutler UH is currently UH Chicago Bear, but there

152
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,239
Speaker 1: is the strong belief that he will either be traded

153
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: or released in the coming weeks, and NFL media insider

154
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport reported on Wednesday's edition of NFL Total Access

155
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: on NFL Network that Cutler is still considering whether even

156
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: wants to play or retire and just walk away age

157
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: thirty four. Of course, Chris Wessling, who wrote the piece

158
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: up on NFL dot com, uh, this seems like a

159
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: very transparent move by Cutler to torpedo whatever trade value

160
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: he has, which can't be much, and get into free

161
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 1: agency where he could maybe pick his own team. Is

162
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: that how you're reading it as well. I that never

163
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 1: occurred to me, honestly. This happened on Total Access yesterday,

164
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: a little peek behind the curtain. Credit to Dan Helly,

165
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: who immediately stopped Ian Rappaport and said, you're burying the

166
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: lead because this was way down on the list of

167
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: items about Jay Cutler that Ian Rappaport had. And I

168
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 1: texted Ian because I the way he brought it up.

169
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: I thought Ian didn't want it to be written about.

170
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: It was kind of a minor thing. But he said,

171
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 1: this is just the fact of reality in the NFL

172
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 1: now and the modern NFL, where these guys make that

173
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: much money. You get to your mid thirties and you're

174
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: taking everything is year to year. You're evaluating whether your

175
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: situation is what you want. If you're Jay Cutler and

176
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: you get very little guaranteed money, you have to compete

177
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: for a starting job in a team that's going nowhere,

178
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: is that going to keep you from retirement when you've

179
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: already made a hundred million dollars. I don't know, like,

180
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: what's his motivation? I think the real story maybe we're

181
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: burying the lead a little bit. Here is uh the

182
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: headline on the end Around today and owed to Jay Cutler.

183
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: And what I'm really seeing as the big story is

184
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: Dan hansis starting to convince himself that maybe Jay Cutler

185
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: is a good option for the Jets. Here's the start

186
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: of his third paragraph from Dan, I've always strangely admired

187
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: Cutler's brand of give let's just call it djah. He

188
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: never seemed particularly interest you're you're getting. I kind of

189
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: like j Cler. I'm not saying that he and this

190
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,719
Speaker 1: is kind of like the West Greg beat, because you

191
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: guys always fight about Jay Cutler, but I've always found

192
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 1: it to be an entertaining character. Uh Chac. Back in

193
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, I wrote it. I looked it up

194
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: when I was writing that column, which you should check

195
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: out at NFL dot com slash end Around um that

196
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: I wrote that he was the NFL's greatest villain because

197
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: there was a time where he could actually really play

198
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: and he you know, his attitude and the way he

199
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: kind of would, you know, mess with Mike Tyson on

200
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: the sideline and just not care about anything and still perform.

201
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: I don't think he can really perform. And it's very

202
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: important to note that he's coming off a torn laboram

203
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: and his arm is his best characteristics. So if you

204
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: if he doesn't have a strong arm. I don't want

205
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: anything to do with Jay Cutler, But in a rebuilding

206
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: year for the Jets where they really just need somebody

207
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: to play quarterback, if I can have a year a

208
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: year of fun with Jay Cutler where he makes some

209
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: plays or is a total disaster and the Jets are

210
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: behind the steams doing the right things to build for

211
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 1: the future, I need somebody to play. Do it what

212
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: I'd rather have? Jay Cutler or Josh McCown or Brian Hoyer.

213
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: Give me Cutler. Let's have some fun here, and you

214
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: you may get your wish because it sounds like the

215
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: of all the teams out. So the Jets are the one. Hey,

216
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: they they desperately need something at quarterback. They have interest

217
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: and if you have the right attitude, if you're looking

218
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: at Jake Cutler and you're trying to tell your friends

219
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: and neighbors, hey, this guy is gonna push the Jets

220
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: over the top, lookout in England, Patriots, that is going

221
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 1: to be a disastrous, uh open Cutler situation. I think

222
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: they're more open than they were with Ryan Fitzpatrick, and

223
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 1: I would think he's an upgrade over Ryan Fitzpatrick. Frankly,

224
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: I think the Jets are really the only team that

225
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: makes sense because he has burned so many bridges, not

226
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: just of teammates, but with coach, former coaches, and the

227
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: new Jets quarterbacks coaches Jeremy Bates, who had him in

228
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: Denver and Chicago as quarterbacks coach, and by all the

229
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: couns to two of him get along great. And Bates

230
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 1: is a big Cutler fan. I think there's a couple

231
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 1: of places. It all depends. You know, we'll talk to

232
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: Carousel later, but just specifically for Cutler. You know, Kyle

233
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: Shanahan if if he if he can't find what he

234
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: wants in free agency or something, could he go with

235
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: Cutler in a rookie His dad draft is dad's drafted

236
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: free agent? Carousel, Well, it's the Cutler part. I don't

237
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: want to step on Mark. Let's wait. Don't you think

238
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,239
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is trying to institute a culture in San Francisco?

239
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: The last guy you want instituting the culture is Jake

240
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: You you made fun of me for throwing out the

241
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: possibility just that Folds would would have a chance. I'm

242
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: not stumping for West did and I I that's you

243
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: framing the question. I really did. My point is I

244
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: really think will put the energy out there that Folds

245
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: could be a started quarterback. I really think Cutler will

246
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: be starting. So one of the one of these these

247
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 1: carousel spots is gonna stop and Cutlers again. Josh McCown,

248
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: we wrote about this on a t N today, told

249
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: um a reporter recently that four or five teams, according him,

250
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: so many teams are John blay Down that he so

251
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: many teams according he can't even keep counting. Well, j

252
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 1: Cutler is going to have a market as well. There

253
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: is one big difference between McCown and Cutler, and it

254
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: is how they are viewed within the within their own

255
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: locker room. I think McCown has been a pristine teammate.

256
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: He may be done on the field very soon, but

257
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: people want my count around for more than just his

258
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 1: playing ability. Cutler is going to have to probably convince

259
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: teams other than the Jets that he still wants to

260
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: play football. There's have to convince the Jets to the

261
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: Jets may say, listen, we don't need a little bit

262
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: of credit. Jets can say, well, have that conversation later.

263
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 1: Do you want me on your corner because of the Jets,

264
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: don't even would want to play. I'll probably He's also

265
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: five years younger and and has started a hunter in

266
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: thirty games at if he if he thinks that Jay Cutler,

267
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: what do you say? I don't want him into whatever?

268
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: You love Cutler, You've always loved I've always held out

269
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: hope he could turn it around at this point. You

270
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: know it's looking pretty dim early thirties. Why not? Now

271
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: we need Bruce arians to save him next year? Moving

272
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: on a little bit of tackle talk. Tackle talk, Russell

273
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,479
Speaker 1: Okung is not going to be on the Denver Broncos

274
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: next season. The team declined to pick up his option. Uh.

275
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: That initial deal that he um framed himself with the

276
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: Broncos because he was his own agent, UH, turned out

277
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: to be essentially a one year, five million dollar deal

278
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: with an option for a four year, forty eight million

279
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: dollar agreement. This is the case against being your own agent,

280
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: by the way, because nobody would really agree to that,

281
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: uh if you had a functional agent on your side. Uh. So,

282
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: now Russell Kong is going to be on the marketing

283
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: and Greg what are your thoughts on this and where

284
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: does he fit in into the big old top ninety

285
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: don't we us finished our top ninety nine free agents? Oh, Kung,

286
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: We're not sure about because we gotta add him to

287
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: the mix. But he'll be in there in the middle.

288
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: The tackle group is terrible. I could see him returning

289
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: to Seattle. He'd be in my top five tackles available.

290
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: I mean, he played last two years healthy enough, not

291
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: particularly well, but he's a starting left tackle in the NFL,

292
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: which means he'll get paid by someone. I don't get this.

293
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: It seems to me like writers are in bed with

294
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: agents when everybody's waiting to pounce on Russell Okung. He's

295
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: not the first player to be cut after one year,

296
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: whether he signed his own contractor an agent helped him.

297
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: This happens to players all the time. But you can

298
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: use at his age, you can usually probably get some

299
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: guarantees into the second year he made, and he wasn't

300
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: at the top of his game. He was signed to

301
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: be the starting left tackle the defending Super Bowl champion,

302
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: and he made eight million dollars on one year. That's

303
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: not good money. Good eight million dollars for what the

304
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: leverage he had going into free agency, I don't know.

305
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: I don't think he signed a good deal. I don't

306
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: know if he had a ton of leverage. He was

307
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: an injury prone guy, and that Denver line is so

308
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: depleted at this point I would I'd put a sandwich

309
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: right now that they draft at least three offensive linemen

310
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 1: because the what's out there in free agency. There's good

311
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: guards out there, but if you're looking for tackles, it's

312
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: not a great free agency class. Three or more. How

313
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: many draft picks there I might take up on this,

314
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: let's take me up. I mean, you know what, You've

315
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: been betting sandwiches all season. Nobody's paid up, so I'm

316
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: gonna just keep betting them. I don't care. At this point.

317
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: You actually make a good point because the game loses

318
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: all value if we're not paying off the sandwich. So

319
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: I think it doesn't pay up. It begins now we

320
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: have to start, and that's bad news for you. Maybe

321
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: you should have brought it up, Mark, because you lose

322
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: the most out. Who picked over two picked Super Bowl

323
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: going into overtime? Was it you? Was it West or Greg?

324
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: Was it new money? And I certainly wasn't new money

325
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: wasn't even there. The West was undefeated in his UH

326
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: Super Bowl predictions on our Thursday podcast before the Big Game.

327
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: Other offensive tackle news, Jason Peters will stay with the

328
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: Eagles in seventeen UH Ian Rappaport reported Thursday that despite

329
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: speculation Eagles could move on, he'll be back with the team.

330
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 1: He set to make nine and a half base salary,

331
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: and his workout bonuses bumped that number too close to

332
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: eleven million dollars. UH thirty five years old. I used

333
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: to be, you know, in any conversation of the top

334
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: blindside guys in the league. But time and injuries have

335
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 1: taken a toll, but not enough for the Eagles to

336
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: divorce themselves. It's it's just a quick show of what

337
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: Mark just said. There aren't tackles available on in free agency.

338
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: It's supposed to be a bad tackle class in the

339
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: draft according to Daniel Jeremiah and move the sticks. So

340
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: this is like they asked Jason Peters to take a

341
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: pay gun, he was like no, and then they just

342
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: kept him. So that the nice job. By the way,

343
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: just one thing. DJ moved the sticks. Heard about some

344
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,239
Speaker 1: shade being thrown our way on your show. You're punching up,

345
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: punching up at the big leagues, and what context? What

346
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: was the shade it's called this a toaster podcast. I

347
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: think was the exact words. Pretty funny, you're coming out,

348
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: you're coming out the big chairs. Just you know, pipe

349
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 1: down a little bit. I would just say, if you're

350
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Wait, was that me or was that the announcer?

351
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: I have no idea that. Let me let me go

352
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 1: full Frances, Hey, Danny, why don't you go get the

353
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: ratings book and and and tell us what you think

354
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: about the toaster show. Alright, go ahead. I don't even

355
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: remember what my point and I think it's this. I mean,

356
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: you've got Carson Wentz and we can say that Jason

357
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: Peters is declining. He was still if you would care

358
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: about what PFF says. I think it was the eighth

359
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 1: rated tackle last year. And you can't go replace that

360
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: position necessary if you let him go. It's the wrong

361
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: time to suddenly have a major issue at left tackle.

362
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: Anything else, guys, that's it for tackle talk. Finally, triplet triplet,

363
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 1: triplet triplet. The offseason pool party continues. One of the

364
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: more popular hopes of the off season, player X making

365
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: strides and rehab program. Uh. This time we have Eddie

366
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: Lacey who posted video on his Twitter feed, Uh, running

367
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: in a pool at the University of Alabama is alma mater. Uh.

368
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: That is one of the great tropes. This is about

369
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 1: a month after we saw David Johnson recovering from a

370
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: knee injury jump out of a pool. Uh. Eddie Lacy

371
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,120
Speaker 1: recovering from ankle surgery that wiped out his twenties sixteen

372
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: season after about six or seven games. So Eddie Lacy

373
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: on his way back and also um back on the

374
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: fitness on a fitness kick. And you know, conditioning has

375
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: been an issue with Lacey. Last year it was P

376
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: ninety X with Tony Horton, which Mark I know you

377
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: followed very closely. Yeah, but Lacy apparently has dropped Norton

378
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: in favor of a man or woman Autumn Calabresi. It

379
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: is a woman are named or Autumn by the way,

380
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: a like, why would Autumn have to be a woman's name?

381
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: That's my guy seems certainly like are we overdo for

382
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 1: a man named That's a different conversation. Maybe, So there

383
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: you go. Autumn Calibra. Well, by the way, they well

384
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: they all work for the same company, so's I don't

385
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: think it's dropping Tony Horton, but they're all with the

386
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: Beach Body group. Conrore that she does a program called

387
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: twenty one Day Fixed and Conroor did it before he

388
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: had his wedding, which was last year at some point,

389
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: and shed like, I think it's something like twenty pounds

390
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: and I'm doing it currently and it is autumn. Calibras

391
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: is a great teacher. I can see why Eddie Lacey.

392
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: I understand he's the butt of jokes because it's oh

393
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: football player wants to work out and get better in

394
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: the off season, that wants let's start taking the guy

395
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: to town. But I mean, I think he's trying. I

396
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: like that even you even know the the sub corporate

397
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: group that is part of Barry Plugged in Calibration. It's true.

398
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: We we've heard a lot about this program. I mean,

399
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: I think you've talked about the program as much as

400
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: you've done the Barry into it. Listen, you know what

401
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: I mean. I think Connor and I are were on this.

402
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 1: We're on this track and we're not going to give up.

403
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: How twelve days are you ready to hit the beach?

404
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't typically hit the beach in general,

405
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: but I mean, why not. I'll be I will be soon,

406
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 1: all right, talk to me in nine days. Let's track.

407
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: Can you do a pod shirtless at the end of

408
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: the twenty one day That would help absolutely no one

409
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,360
Speaker 1: in this room or outside. If you've a beach body,

410
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: is that the name of the program is that? The

411
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: name isn't the beach body is? And that's the like

412
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,199
Speaker 1: the corporate that's the corporate name. Yes, I don't think

413
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: I'm twelve days. I'm not nine days away from what

414
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 1: they're claiming. You could get to quite a bit away

415
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 1: from that. You look good, They're real good. Thanks Greg.

416
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: That's what's happening in the news, all right. So it's

417
00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: time everybody to hop aboard. It's a little run stee.

418
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 1: Watch out for the tetanus the QB carousel. Alright. So

419
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: Mark Sesler wrote a banger um and, as Mark puts

420
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: it in the lead of his post, offs, off seasons

421
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: are shaped by quarterback movement, and this season will be

422
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: a very interesting off season because there are so many uh,

423
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,360
Speaker 1: you know, name brands. I'll call them. They're not necessarily stars,

424
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: but names that are recognizable players like Tony Romo, Kirk Cousin,

425
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: ty Rod Taylor, Jimmy Garoppolo, those type of names. So

426
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: what the Carousel aims to do, Mark Sesler is what

427
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: well I wrote it as. If you get off the carousel,

428
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: then you're you can't go to three different teams. If

429
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: you get off the carousel and you land in San Francisco,

430
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 1: we're not going to project someone else to San Francisco.

431
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: Is a domino game, a little bit of a domino

432
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: type thing, but there's some also some bizarre non attached

433
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: dominoes at the bottom, So that didn't quite fit. So

434
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: I went with carousel. Did you did you ever think

435
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: maybe instead of carousel, go with the QB domino effect. Yeah,

436
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,120
Speaker 1: but like again that some of the some of the

437
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: characters at the end are not attached to anything of me. Yeah,

438
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: It's like it would have been like if you have

439
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: the dominotiest, it wouldn't have been knocked down. So a

440
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: thought about it went against it. All right, very good.

441
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: So Mark's pace breaks it into subdivisions, uh, and the

442
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: first division is Headliners and Kirk Cousins. I think West

443
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 1: might be on the same page as me, and this

444
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: I still struggle to imagine Kirk Cousins being anywhere but Washington,

445
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 1: But there continues to be people who believe he will

446
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: be playing elsewhere, and Mark, you're one of them, because

447
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: when Kirk Cousins steps off that carousel, it will be

448
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: in Santa Clara, California, the home of the forty Niners. WHOA, yeah,

449
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: I do. I just think that the kind of the

450
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: heat around this is growing, and I think we'll know.

451
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: You know, initially this was supposed to come out next

452
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 1: week during the Combine, and I thought, we gotta get

453
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: this thing up sooner because it's going to be completely

454
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: this will be completely irrelevant by then, as the whispers

455
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 1: and things start picking up, and I think a lot

456
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 1: could happen at the Combine and around whether if the

457
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: forty Niners are serious about Cousins. Will know a lot

458
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: more a week from now than we do today. What

459
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: kind of heat are we talking about? What are we

460
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: hearing they look to trade for him, that the Redskins

461
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: would franchise him, and then they can organize a trade.

462
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: And it's not just us, it's you know that you're

463
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: not gonna like this at all, But Daniel Jeremiah that's

464
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: that's where this all started, Jeremiah, And he's not coming

465
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: up out of a thin area. He's talking to people

466
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,199
Speaker 1: and he's hearing this well. He said he would not

467
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: be shocked if the Redskins and forty Niners did a trade,

468
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: and he's he thinks there's a better than fifty percent

469
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,199
Speaker 1: chance Cousins isn't a Redskin in two thousand seventeen. I

470
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: think logically that seems right. He's saying this year, there's

471
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 1: a better than fifty percent chance. That's that seems aggressive

472
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: because I don't think the Red we talked about it

473
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: the last show. I don't think the Redskins coach Jake

474
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: Gruden wants to get rid of him. And I don't

475
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: think necessarily Bruce Allen is going to be confident enough

476
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 1: to put his job on the line to get rid

477
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 1: of Kirk Cousins and replace him with what exactly. I

478
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: don't know. You better have an answer. It better be

479
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. You know, it better not be j Cutler.

480
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: You know what I mean it It's tough to get

481
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: rid of a guy, and I don't see them wanting

482
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: to help Kyle Shanahan out. But maybe the forty Niners

483
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: truly would give up a godfather offer. That's what this is.

484
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 1: All this is to me, this is all just leverage

485
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 1: trying to build up his trade value. I can't see

486
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: a team like the forty Niners with so many needs

487
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: trading the number two pick for Kirk Cousins. I just

488
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: they have too many needs. I don't see them. I

489
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: could see Kyle Shanahan being patient and understanding that the

490
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: Redskins can't tag Kirk Cousins again. Next year it would

491
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: be thirty four million. He's Kirk Cousins would be free

492
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: to go wherever he wanted to go in two thousand

493
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 1: and eighteen. I could just see Kyle Shanahan approaching this

494
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: with a lot of patients. As he said last week.

495
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: All I would ask is, if you're Kyle Shanahan and

496
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: you can get Kirk Cousins a quarterback that you know

497
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,959
Speaker 1: well for the number two pick. I know that sounds

498
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,679
Speaker 1: crazy at this time of year. What is a greater

499
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 1: need than quarterback? I think I would look to Kyle

500
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: Shannon's history. He has the quarterbacks who have reached their

501
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: ceilings under Kyle Shanahan are Matt Shop in Houston, Brian

502
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 1: Hoyer in Cleveland, r G three in Washington, Matt Ryan

503
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: in Atlanta, whoever he plays at quarterback is going to

504
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 1: reach his ceiling. In my opinion, I don't think he

505
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: needs to give up the number to pick for Kirk Cousins.

506
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 1: He loves us, don't all accounts right, but he also

507
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 1: loves a lot of quarterbacks. What a great quarterback coach.

508
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 1: There is a lot out there that Kirk Cousins wants

509
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: nothing to do with the Redskins, doesn't want to be

510
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,159
Speaker 1: in Washington, and and the Redskins I think have totally

511
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: botched this. If they if the coach loves him so much,

512
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: and the coach wants him around for long term, then

513
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: they couldn't have handled this anymore with with any lesson

514
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: they could have signed him to a deal last year

515
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: that would have saved the money ultimately if they, if

516
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: they had had the foresight to do it speaks to

517
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: some dysfunction in the Redskins organization. Number one, I think

518
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: that's true, But I I don't if if Shanahan truly

519
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: loved Cousins and they could get it done for the

520
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 1: number to pick, why not? I mean, look at the

521
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 1: number two picks over the last X amount of years.

522
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 1: How many of them are worth more than a franchise quarterback?

523
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: Almost none of them. I mean, you have a fifty

524
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: percent chance whether that guy's even gonna be a great starter.

525
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,640
Speaker 1: But you don't even believe Kirk Cousins is that good.

526
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: I don't, But I don't think Klan does either. I

527
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: don't think Kyle. I don't think Kyle Shanahan thinks that

528
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousin. He tried to choose like a top six

529
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,680
Speaker 1: NFL quarter tried to trade form in Cleveland for a

530
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: fourth round pick, not the number two that was. That

531
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: was a different time, and Kirk Cousins was seen and

532
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: I hear you, But I don't think that Kirk Cousins

533
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 1: is seen by even the Shanahan's who love him as

534
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: one of the top ten talents at the position in

535
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,239
Speaker 1: the NFL. And I wonder where all this is coming from.

536
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: I want this to happen because if Cousins goes, then

537
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: it all gets a little crazy, because then Washington is

538
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: in the mix, and it's like Washington. If it doesn't go,

539
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 1: the entire article needs just to be deleted because it

540
00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: all falls down from here. Speaking of Washington and this function.

541
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: Does anybody find a little weird that a team employee,

542
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 1: essentially on the team owned radio station, came out and

543
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: throughout the accusation or possibility that their GM is drinking

544
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 1: against Scott mccluhan, who is UM had issues in the past,

545
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: that a team employee is saying that, and then the

546
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: Redskins declined comment on the whole situation. That's you want

547
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: to talk to this function? What is going on behind

548
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 1: the scenes in d C. No one's heard from Scott

549
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: mcleuin in weeks and weeks and weeks, but I think

550
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: that's an incredible accusation just to throw out there. Jerry

551
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: Brewer wrote this column that I sent to you guys

552
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: about what's going on behind the scenes in Washington, and

553
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: it just seems like the same old story that there's

554
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: always this back by this fighting going on, and right

555
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: now it seems to be a little bit of a

556
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: power struggle between Bruce Allen and mcluhen and Jay Gruden

557
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: and Cousins is wrapped up in all this and who knows.

558
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: I would just say read the article, it's very very interesting. UM.

559
00:28:56,680 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 1: Moving on, Mark, now you have Jimmy Garoppolo uh, stepping

560
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: off the carousel, as it were, and joining the Browns.

561
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: And we've talked about that, but I'm just curious. How disappointed,

562
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: on a one to ten Factory of Sadness scale would

563
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 1: you be if the Browns came out of this off

564
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: off season without Garoppolo. Do you think he's a must

565
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: have here? I don't think he's a must have. I

566
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: think that if the if the if Hugh Jackson would

567
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 1: want him that much and they don't get him, that's

568
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 1: very disappointing. If if they are content to go somewhere

569
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: else without mortgaging you know, a big part of their draft,

570
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: and that includes getting a quarterback, and that would remove

571
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 1: essentially r G three from the picture. I'd be all right,

572
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: But that personally as a let's work under the assumption

573
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: that Hugh Jackson likes I think he does pounding the table. Well,

574
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: maybe he is. Maybe I'd like him. One to ten.

575
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: How disappointed will you be if he's not the Browns

576
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: quarterback Week one? I like, I'm at this point, I

577
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: really truly, I keep saying this. I don't feel much anymore.

578
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: So Okay, one to ten, where would you be? Six? Okay,

579
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: I think you'd be eight. I think my main takeaway

580
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: from this article, from this entire exercise, is that Mark

581
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: wants Jimmy Garoppolo on the Brown Sure, sure I do,

582
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 1: but that's that's that's not necessarily I think that's harder

583
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: to pull off than people realize. I think I think

584
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: the Bears are in love with Jimmy Garoppolo. I think

585
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: the Browns are probably in love with Jimmy Garoppolo. And

586
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: I think Kyle Shanahan would love to get his hands

587
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: on Jimmy Garoppolo. So I think those are the three teams,

588
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have a lot of competition. But the

589
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: Browns make as much sense as any I think the

590
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: Browns makes so much sense, and and I think a

591
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: lot of people and we'll see how it really shapes up,

592
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 1: but I think the Browns really whiffed on Carson Wentz

593
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: and this would be a good way to kind of

594
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 1: bury that sin. If you can pull off a trade

595
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: that doesn't, you know, destroy your future, which I don't

596
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: think it would because they have so much depth in

597
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: the in this draft class in terms of um ability

598
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: to trade awade picks and still be okay, uh go

599
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: and get him take a shot. If you like them,

600
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 1: go and get them. Don't let another guy get away, right,

601
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 1: I mean first round picks. I'm almost at the point,

602
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: I think for first round picks. I know, the contracts great,

603
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 1: but it almost gets a little overrated. Before you know

604
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: who the player is. Then you find out who the

605
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: players you watch him for, you know, and it's it's

606
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: it's some turns into Cam Irving half the time. Yeah,

607
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: it's a defensive tackle, it's a it's a tight end

608
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: that never materializes. I mean, I would rather go with

609
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: the known product at quarterback, not every other place. Well,

610
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: and the one thing that I'm not buying is, you know,

611
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: there's the reports the Patriots have to be bowled over

612
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: and they're happy to keep Garoppolo. They and I and

613
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: I get that on some level, but if two or

614
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: three teams are really in on him, there's no there's

615
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: never gonna be a better time. And I think, and

616
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,959
Speaker 1: I think he gets traded. I would be surprised if

617
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: he doesn't get traded. All Right, you have Tony Romo

618
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: going to the Bears, and uh, again, a lot of

619
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: logic there. Bears are looking to move on an upgrade

620
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: from Jay Cutler. But you know the Bears. I guess

621
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: the counter to this um West would be that the

622
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: Bears our team that's kind of a few years away,

623
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,960
Speaker 1: and Tony Romo is one hit away from his career

624
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: being over. Maybe I don't agree with the match on

625
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 1: that on those grounds that they're not contenders. I could

626
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: much more easily see Tony Romo in Chicago than Tony

627
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: Romo and Buffalo. But isn't a kind of the same thing.

628
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: I think the Bears are in better shape than than

629
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the football world thinks they're in, especially

630
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: if they keep Alshan Jeffrey. I think they've got a nucleus.

631
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: They've got a young second year running back who was

632
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 1: second in the league in rushing. Their offensive line performed

633
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: better than just about any team connected to Tony Romo

634
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: on his landing Spots list. They really protected Matt Barkley

635
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: well down to stretch last year, and I think they've

636
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: gotten intriguing front seven on defense. But they've won. They

637
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 1: won three games. It should be pointing out I'm talking

638
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: about but Tony roll on the roster, which is better

639
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: than the Bill's roster. I think right that's from a

640
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: smart analyst perspective, is like Tony Romo really diving through

641
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: and figuring out the total differences between like and think

642
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: seeing all that in his mind that the Bears have

643
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: that much potential when they're I mean, who who should

644
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: be more invested in? When in And here's the thing

645
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: that no one knows anything like Oh we know is

646
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: that they haven't had a winning team in many years.

647
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: We know he's got a connection to their general manager.

648
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: We know that that he played college in that area,

649
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: so that might appeal to him. How many years does

650
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: Tony Romo have left zero to two? Is that? Are

651
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: the Bears the team to go there? When your windows

652
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: that small? That's I think to me, that's what it

653
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: comes down to. I think the Bears can compete next

654
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: year with a quarterback there is there is a lot

655
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: of connections with Tony Romo there played football with the

656
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,959
Speaker 1: GM you know there. If they don't bring back us

657
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: on Jeffrey, you know, if you're a quarterback, I would

658
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: think that your weapons would be you know, one of

659
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 1: the things you're certainly concerned about. They might have the

660
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: very worst wide receiver group in the entire NFL. What

661
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: about it, Jeffrey Ken Cameron meth two that works both ways.

662
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: If you do keep Elshan, Jeffrey and Kevin White is

663
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: who they thought they were drafting. Finally, they would be

664
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: a much better wide receiving corps than people think. Karen

665
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: Meredith played pretty well down the stretch. Mark, Is there

666
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: anything anybody else in this list that you would like

667
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: to talk about before we move on? Well? Go through

668
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: them all? We got okay, Greg, go ahead, take over,

669
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 1: let's do it. Oh. I agree with Josh McCowen to

670
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I think locked that in. Yeah, I think

671
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 1: that was almost gonna happen last year. He's from Texas,

672
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: he probably is thinking post career. He's definitely a family

673
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna move back to Texas. And I think

674
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: he would fit with Dak Prescott. And they're probably gonna

675
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: keep Kellen More too. I think that's a fit. I

676
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: know he's I know Dan you mentioned he's got a

677
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: multiple teams coming after him, but that might can't even

678
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 1: a perfect backup, but durability issues and all that. But yeah,

679
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: that you know they have a young starting quarterback in

680
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: place that makes sense. Brian Hoyer to the Patriots is

681
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 1: I feel like Hoyer, in my opinion, probably thinks to himself,

682
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 1: I can go somewhere and compete for starting job, because

683
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: that's what it always seems to happen with Brian Hoyer,

684
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 1: which is not happy in UH with New England, especially

685
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: if they trade Garoppolo and they like they like Jake.

686
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I think Horrier can go somewhere

687
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: where you can compete a slice off that Jake Brisky.

688
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,439
Speaker 1: You have Tyrod staying with with the Bills. It's it's

689
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 1: all fascinating, and you have the Redskins rebuilding from scratch

690
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,839
Speaker 1: because if the Redskins really did get in the mix,

691
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 1: like the Redskins could very well be in the mix,

692
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 1: the Buffalo, the Bills could very well be in the mix.

693
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: Tyrode could very well be out there. There's so many

694
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 1: X factors to this, like are are hit on Friday's

695
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: addition of Up to the Minute Live, which everyone should

696
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:44,720
Speaker 1: watch four o'clock Eastern, one o'clock Pacific. West gets after

697
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: me and really goes after me personally just for just

698
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 1: for believing that Tony Romo could go to the Bill.

699
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,240
Speaker 1: So he doesn't have that many options. In West's defense,

700
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: at one point, you also go, what do you know, well,

701
00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: you could watch all of that on NFL Network on Friday.

702
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 1: I Greg is one of my most trusted voices in

703
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: the wilderness. But we have reached a point in our

704
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: relationship where we just are never going to agree on quarterbacks.

705
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: What's that's just like, I have no more faith in

706
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: your quarterback. Wait a minute, I can't deal with the

707
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: Nick Foles and Mike Lennon I don't like, and the

708
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: Tony Romo is willing to go to Buffalo stuff, I'm

709
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: not hap I can agree on. This has nothing to

710
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 1: do with the valuation you're trying to We're trying to

711
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: get inside of Tony Romo's head. Can we at least

712
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: agree that we have no idea what really matters to

713
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 1: Romo and we have I'm not gonna agree with that.

714
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: We have some information, it's it's totally uncertain. We have

715
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: some information that indicates, you know, maybe some of the

716
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: teams wouldn't be out there, and there's some logic that

717
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 1: they just would be desperate. You're asking me to bypass

718
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: common sense and say that Tony Romo, with only a

719
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 1: year or two left in his career, is gonna want

720
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: to go try to topple Tom Brady with a much

721
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: worse roster. It's some money. No, I don't believe that

722
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: if he goes to Buffalo, Wes, what will you give Greg?

723
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,800
Speaker 1: What will you do for or even if he shows

724
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 1: it pants, I've already done that. I'll think, Um, will

725
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: you eat Greg's pants? No, I don't know where Greg's

726
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,919
Speaker 1: pants have been on his but I'll buy him lunch

727
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,320
Speaker 1: for a week straight though. I like that. Wait, is

728
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: this like the other food bets where they actually no

729
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: one actually does anything with it? Or you? I mean

730
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: the odds end of actually going to Buffalo, even for

731
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,760
Speaker 1: an optimal like I'm saying it's possible, would be pretty

732
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 1: like a one in four chance or something. It's not

733
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 1: like it would be particularly like. Yeah, so I'm saying

734
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:41,760
Speaker 1: very highest level. Alright, insummation comments made Greg to West?

735
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 1: What do you know? West to Greg? I have no

736
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:50,400
Speaker 1: more faith your quarterback evaluation. Wow, it got personal quickly,

737
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 1: and it's uncomfortable. I feel bad. You know, it's not

738
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: just Sydney back there. There are multiple technicians working on

739
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: the show, and it's I feel bad for them. All right.

740
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: Check it out NFL dot com slash Sessler and usually

741
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,120
Speaker 1: you say that the columns and things that you write

742
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 1: are assigned to you, mark, but this one came from

743
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: your head and you said, I want to get this

744
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,720
Speaker 1: one out to the people. Correct. That's mostly true. Almost

745
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: all your articles there, it's all true, Well, most of

746
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,919
Speaker 1: my articles. A lot of times I'm just like, hey,

747
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: this happened. This guy got cut sitting in your chair.

748
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: You write it whenever I set market typically when I

749
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: set mark up on a story wrote on this podcast.

750
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: This first thing he says, well, this was something that

751
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: was assigned to me. Well, let me say, whenever they

752
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: say vanity you are el hashtag our last name, it

753
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: tells you what they think of it, because all that

754
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: is is a list of every story we wrote. So

755
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 1: someone goes there three days from now, and if I've

756
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: written anything since, good luck finding. It's a long list

757
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: of stories. It's not going to take you straight to it.

758
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: So it tells you what the editorial desk thinks of

759
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 1: this work. I think it might be a little easier

760
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: to find articles on your author page. And you believe

761
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,720
Speaker 1: we do. Our listeners know about the f eight function.

762
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,359
Speaker 1: Are we digging on the Saving for the f aid

763
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:07,359
Speaker 1: Function podcast? That's all right. There, You go make sure

764
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: you check it out. And now let's move on to

765
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: the mailbag slightly kickoffident enjoyed that I'm gonna you having nightmare.

766
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 1: We can get that again before the show is all right.

767
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,720
Speaker 1: So this, of course, all these questions come from actual

768
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 1: listeners of the Around the NFL podcast, And where do

769
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: we want to start? Here's a good one, uh this

770
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 1: from this one from uh Alajo Riguez Enriquez at p

771
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: R I O n S who asks, what team besides

772
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,760
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins will make the biggest free agency splash.

773
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,399
Speaker 1: It's a good question because everyone's Dolphins are where everyone's going. Oh,

774
00:39:56,440 --> 00:40:00,839
Speaker 1: look out for the Dolphins. We've been saying the same thing.

775
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: But what about another team? And I'll throw to you,

776
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: Chris Wesley. Let me look at some salary cap numbers here,

777
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: damn everyone's got I feel like there are ten to

778
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 1: fifteen teams who have more than they could possibly spend

779
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:21,320
Speaker 1: almost the entire league, Like like a big forty Niners

780
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 1: make a big splash. They have about eighty million in

781
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: cap space, second only to the Browns, and they need

782
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: warm bodies at multiple starting positions on that team. I

783
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: think it's easier to get players to go to San

784
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: Francisco right now with the you know, Kyle Shanahan is

785
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: an attraction. Garson is an obvious one who when he played,

786
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahon's offense is based on the X receiver, a

787
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: dominant X receiver, and I don't know if Pierre Garson

788
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: is that guy right now, but he was one of

789
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: the most efficient receivers in the NFL down a stretch

790
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,720
Speaker 1: last year he played. He led the NFL and catches

791
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 1: as Kyle Shanhan's ex receiver with the Redskins. He's also

792
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 1: had Julio Jones and Andre Johnson at that spot, so

793
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: I would say maybe they start with him. I think

794
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, even though they've tried this over and over,

795
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 1: I think it's their mode. I think they like to

796
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: be active in free agency. They have the same GM

797
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: and they've got to some degree a new regime. I

798
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: think they're gonna want to get some new blood in there,

799
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: and they've got money to spend. Throw in their Buccaneers.

800
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 1: There might be a Buccaneers sleep a sleepy one. They

801
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: they've got sixty million under the cap, and you know

802
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna go hard after DeShawn Jackson. People, Yeah, people

803
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: think they'd go for Alson, and I don't think that's

804
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: possible because then he's too much like Mike Evans, and

805
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 1: you would have to be deciding almost not to pay

806
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 1: Mike Evans, because then a year from now you would

807
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 1: literally have the two highest paid receivers in the league

808
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 1: on one team. Which took excellent point. Great, it makes

809
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: up for your Mike Lennon love. Sad we're back in

810
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 1: this territory. Well, you just trumped it with a sad, well,

811
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 1: sad sad. Anyway, next up Heinz Bowman at Haines Christian

812
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: Rights and I'm gonna tweak this just a little bit

813
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: to make it a little more thought provoking offense. Hines

814
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 1: none taken, I'm sure. He asks, He asks, would you

815
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: rather have Jimmy? Know the the guts of the question

816
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 1: are excellent, but you know, here we go, here we go.

817
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: Would you rather have Jimmy G for ten years or

818
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 1: Tommy B Tom Brady, Tom Brady that we saw this

819
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: past season for three tom Brady? No question? Who is

820
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: I want to win Super Bowls, championship banners fly forever?

821
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:27,280
Speaker 1: Who is you like? Who? What? What team? What entity?

822
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: The Patriots? Yeah? If I play if I'm GM of

823
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,920
Speaker 1: any of the thirty two teams and my answer is

824
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. Okay, I'm gonna win a super Bowl. Let

825
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: me knock it down to uh Hines's question, would you

826
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 1: rather have Jimmy G for ten years? You edited his

827
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 1: question joining us on the show, Greg or Tommy B.

828
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 1: For one? I'm still taking Tom Brady. I would take

829
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 1: Jimmy G for tens if i'm if i'm if I'm

830
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: a bad football team and I get Tom Brady for one,

831
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: that's truly swinging for the fences. I appreciate that, But

832
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 1: you'd have Jimmy G for ten in this weird scenario.

833
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 1: If you're a Patriots fan, I'm taking Tom Brady for one. Well,

834
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 1: that I get because you would why disrupt anything that's happen.

835
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 1: You never want him to. I know Tom Brady's an

836
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: m v P can and I hope Jimmy Garoppolo can

837
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 1: be a top twenty quarterback, but there's a chance he's

838
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: not even a top quarter If you're if you're if

839
00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: you're a bottom barrel team and you're saying you have

840
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: Tom Brady for one season verse a quarterback that's been

841
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: very widely praised by people to work with them for ten,

842
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: I will go with ten. Greg, You've started to get

843
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 1: into soccer sort of. Yes, I am. I have chosen

844
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: a team. I'm a west Ham fan. Yes, big big

845
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 1: news breaking news of Nat Comb's podcast headquarters. Yeah. Not

846
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: Nat Combs from Talk Sport two. I do a show

847
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: with him. He presented me with the west Ham jersey

848
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 1: at the Super Bowl. You were there and I decided

849
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 1: Hammers forever after your fandom can be bought. Yeah, I've

850
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 1: always kind of wanted one team to to root for.

851
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 1: So Oliver Gray at Ali Underscored nine asked this question

852
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:03,840
Speaker 1: and I will throw it to you, Greg, because you

853
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 1: did hang pretty well in a soccer related conversation with

854
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:14,280
Speaker 1: gold Center at lunch. Uh is it Leicester City? Leicester

855
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 1: City Uh sacked? That is a terminology overseas for fired

856
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 1: Uh their coach, UH Claudio Rani. Should they have stuck

857
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 1: with Claudio Rani? Are or were they right to sack him?

858
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 1: And and those that aren't fans of the Premier League?

859
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: This was the Premier League. Uh, Leicester City was a

860
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,399
Speaker 1: huge underdog champion. I believe in the season and now

861
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: that okay, they're close to relegation this season, so they

862
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,760
Speaker 1: sacked old Claudio. Your thoughts, Greg, Well, I'm no expert,

863
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: that's for sure, but it seems outrageous. It'd be like

864
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 1: if the Browns won the Super Bowl and fired Hugh

865
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 1: Jackson in the middle, literally the middle of the next season.

866
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,840
Speaker 1: That's insane. I'm with you. I don't what do I know?

867
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 1: Talking to gold Standard about it and what he explained

868
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 1: and what Greg also weighed in, like, well, no, Greg's

869
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: a big fan, but like, uh, I mean it seems ridiculous,

870
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 1: Like he sounds like he gave that fandom an incredible

871
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: shocking gift out of nowhere and this is what you

872
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: turn around. Yeah, we didn't watch many matches this year

873
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 1: last year, uh for el C, but I'm sure he

874
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: played a big role in then winning the title. Yes,

875
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: way a premature Sackings, I agree. Here's a question for

876
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,839
Speaker 1: Mark is the most natural person asked This question from

877
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: James Somerville at mash Cheese. If any, if any of

878
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,440
Speaker 1: you were a Jedi, what color would your lightsaber be?

879
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: Big Star Wars friend Mark Seiler, what color? And why blue? Then? Why?

880
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 1: I like blue? It's a good answer. Next question Eric

881
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: Jensen at Eric eighteen, Utah a mail man story. Please,

882
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 1: all right, Chris Westling that he's will throw it to you.

883
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,439
Speaker 1: A former US Postal worker, give us a good old

884
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 1: mail man story. I start my first day at the Covington,

885
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 1: Kentucky Post Office. I believe I'm either twenty or twenty

886
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 1: one years old, and I am paired with a six

887
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 1: ft three, two seventy pound man named Ben Callaway, who

888
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 1: informs me immediately he used to play with the San

889
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:26,919
Speaker 1: Diego Chargers, or was at least in their training camp

890
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: one year, I believe, in the early eighties. And he's

891
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 1: taking me through the housing projects of Jacob Price. And

892
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,400
Speaker 1: we go and we have lunch, and it's a very

893
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 1: nice lunch at like the VFW, with some nice old men,

894
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,280
Speaker 1: white bread and bologney sandwich. The real action comes about

895
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,760
Speaker 1: two o'clock that afternoon. We're going through the mail route

896
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 1: and we see a woman get hit in the face

897
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,479
Speaker 1: with a brick. Oh no, like a middle aged woman

898
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: is hit in the face with a brick. A man

899
00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,759
Speaker 1: a drug deal go wrong, and we see this younger

900
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 1: white guy take off running and Ben, the guy who's training,

901
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 1: he says, oh, yeah, that's his mom who just got

902
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 1: hit in the head with a brick. That's a drug

903
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 1: deal gone wrong. That was my first day on the

904
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 1: job at the at the post Welcome to the route. Yes,

905
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: So how did this citizens arrest? What do you think

906
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: I was gonna go running after him? That? That's what

907
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: mail mean. By the way, let's hear that again. And

908
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:34,480
Speaker 1: that was story time with the mailman. Nicely done. That

909
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 1: was better than my story. Uh, next up, Tom, That

910
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 1: sounds like a terrible, harrowing tale. West. I almost think

911
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: there's probably maybe you can go into therapy and talk

912
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,839
Speaker 1: about it and get some things out. There are much

913
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 1: worse experiences at the post office that I need therapy from.

914
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,720
Speaker 1: Moving on, Tom dow at Tom underscore score Tom eighty four.

915
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: This is an interesting one. What would be your death road? Dinner?

916
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:04,480
Speaker 1: Love it? Greg? You know I have similar sensibilities when

917
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 1: it comes to the Yeah, what would be your death road?

918
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,640
Speaker 1: I know Dan and I whenever we're ordering, we always

919
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,439
Speaker 1: get the same thing. It's kind of cute. And and

920
00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 1: I might go to what we had today at lunch

921
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 1: at least in that vein. I think I might have

922
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 1: to go fried chicken for my last my last meal,

923
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 1: fried chicken and a like a biscuit, solid potatoes, and

924
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: I would think about like a nice steak for sure,

925
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 1: But I don't know. Right now, I'm thinking I'm feeling

926
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 1: some fried. I'm thinking like a little like, um, I'm

927
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 1: gonna get a little sentimental because I'm going to be

928
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 1: fried in an electric chair hours later. I'm guessing that's

929
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,800
Speaker 1: how this works. I'm gonna have my mom was getting

930
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: your meat bolls. Nobody made spaghetti meat bolls like my mama.

931
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 1: Give me that a little cooked meal. Yeah makes sense.

932
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 1: You obviously would have made her proud if you're in

933
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 1: this place, and yeah, assuming she would even agree to

934
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: do it. I was on death row. Perhaps you would

935
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 1: have cut off ties with me. But if I still

936
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 1: have a sound relationship with my mom, her spaghetti and

937
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: meatballs West my friend Alex Montoino from Cincinnati. His mom

938
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: was a fresh off the boat Italian who made the

939
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 1: most selectable morsel of food I've ever put in my mouth,

940
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: her homemade lasagna, which she made the noodles from scratch.

941
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 1: She made everything from scratch. He put a fork on

942
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: top of lasagna. The fork just sinks all the way

943
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,840
Speaker 1: to the plate. It was that soft and light I

944
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 1: want that lasagna. There you go, and Mark Sessler was

945
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,239
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by Because you don't you're not a huge

946
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:40,200
Speaker 1: food fan, and the society is telling you the last

947
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 1: great thing you get his food. Marco just be like, man,

948
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm okay. Well I would be like, yeah, I'm okay,

949
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,319
Speaker 1: because I don't. I don't get the whole thing that

950
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: if you're about to be destroyed that I need to

951
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: eat a huge meal. I would already probably have gone

952
00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 1: on because I would obviously be innocent and falsely accused.

953
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 1: I would be on a long like use or water

954
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 1: fast to begin with. I would refuse to eat. I

955
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:06,320
Speaker 1: would not eat anything in total protest of the judge

956
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:10,560
Speaker 1: that the entire judicial system botched this case. They botched it.

957
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: So you let's say you did it. Let's say you

958
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 1: snapped and and you did it. Then what which I

959
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: still don't think I would say if we're I'm not,

960
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: I would not eat. I would most likely if I

961
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 1: be on death row of our group. I mean I

962
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:30,280
Speaker 1: would ridiculous, Greg. By the way, that is ridiculous, Greig. Secondly,

963
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. If I had done whatever

964
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: they thought I had done, I would definitely be pretending

965
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 1: that I hadn't done it and still protesting. I'm not

966
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,600
Speaker 1: going to suddenly change my tune. I will refuse to

967
00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 1: believe I did it. There you go, Which current This

968
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,840
Speaker 1: is from Bronco Fanatic at Bronco Underscore Fanatic. Which current

969
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 1: or former NFL player would you most want to switch

970
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: lives with? For me, this is easy as long as

971
00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 1: you get to time travel. I would like to be

972
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 1: Joe Namath early in nineteen seventies, Upper East Side in Manhattan,

973
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 1: living the life. That would be my choice. I don't know.

974
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:08,800
Speaker 1: The first name that came to mind is Bobby Lane

975
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 1: in the nineteen fifties. He treated the football season like

976
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,959
Speaker 1: I treat softball season, just an excuse to get together

977
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 1: with your buddies and drink beer. Okay, can it be

978
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 1: a coach? Which Kurt or former NFL player? But if you,

979
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,799
Speaker 1: if you want to, you most want I never liked

980
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: these things. It's like, who would want to switch a

981
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,680
Speaker 1: life with someone? I would much rather be a coach.

982
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:32,760
Speaker 1: I don't know what I would pick a how about

983
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:37,439
Speaker 1: be belly chick and see how that is fantastic? Old

984
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 1: man congret. I don't think he's miserable. I think he's

985
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,399
Speaker 1: I mean thinking that he's on a boat right now.

986
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 1: He's just wanting rings. There you go, sounds great. I'll

987
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:50,040
Speaker 1: be Malcolm Butler right before he makes that interception. Can I, oh,

988
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:59,319
Speaker 1: now the Patriots lose Gregg Rose and dropped it? Can't

989
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 1: just ran for the out there get an ambulance? This

990
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 1: from Lily Jacqui Jack with at Lily ja Qui. Uh,

991
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:17,040
Speaker 1: if all of your wives slash paramours had a podcast together,

992
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:20,600
Speaker 1: what would they talk about? I don't think we'd need

993
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 1: that to happen that This is basically a pitch that

994
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:29,840
Speaker 1: John Gonzales Uh, Colleen Wolf hashtag or slash Connie Fox's

995
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 1: husband has proposed to do I essentially a Wives of

996
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:40,919
Speaker 1: the Around the NFL podcast reality show where he's he's

997
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: sort of the centerpiece here, but it's kind of like

998
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:46,360
Speaker 1: how we're never around during the season and they're just

999
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 1: drinking champagne and getting into different dramas. Okay, my wife

1000
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,920
Speaker 1: would want to know who's raising our infant son two

1001
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,400
Speaker 1: year old during these parties. I think it would be

1002
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 1: I would love to hear it. I wonder what roles

1003
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 1: they'd play. I'd don't particularly think that simone, my wife

1004
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,719
Speaker 1: would want to be on a podcast, but maybe she would,

1005
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:07,880
Speaker 1: maybe she would warm up to it if it's you know,

1006
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 1: Emily and Emika on the rest of the group. Emily

1007
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: definitely wouldn't be There wouldn't be a lot of football

1008
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 1: being the discuss I don't think that would be the

1009
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 1: expectation would be. Yeah'd be different. Emmacho definitely would not

1010
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: want to. Anthony tried to get her to come on

1011
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:25,440
Speaker 1: to uh the Rosenthal and jessely Nick Vanity project, but

1012
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,479
Speaker 1: no one even remembers that. But he did. People, people

1013
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,959
Speaker 1: came up, people came out but the Super Bowl looking

1014
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 1: for it, and I had to tell him no. The

1015
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:38,319
Speaker 1: shadowy league figures at the NFL shortsightedly shot shot it

1016
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 1: down and yet another one of their lack of foresight decisions.

1017
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,439
Speaker 1: I think the paramour would love to be I think

1018
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 1: she would too. I think she'd be good on it too.

1019
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 1: I think she would. I think she'd be great on it.

1020
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,240
Speaker 1: Why do you think she'd only be good? All right? Question?

1021
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,720
Speaker 1: Does John get to me on this podcast? Oh? Heah,

1022
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 1: he's got He's got a larger design on the whole

1023
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,360
Speaker 1: thing where it would sun you know, become much bigger

1024
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,680
Speaker 1: than anything we're involved. There is something funny about that

1025
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,160
Speaker 1: that it's him and they would love him to the

1026
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:10,480
Speaker 1: wives agree to having John on the podcast. Why not?

1027
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:12,840
Speaker 1: Why does he get the why don't they potentially and

1028
00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 1: we don't need you here? In a sense though, he

1029
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:18,120
Speaker 1: would be the the match to Connie Fox. So it

1030
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 1: makes sense. Oh that's well, then you're opening it up

1031
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 1: to the whole universe. Then what do you mean is

1032
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,880
Speaker 1: then you got Lindsay Rhodses Hunt. Sure he could come on,

1033
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: but I mean that's like they would all appear as

1034
00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,919
Speaker 1: as they naturally appear, which is in some cases periodically,

1035
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:41,040
Speaker 1: in some cases regularly Kevin Patra's fiance. We had Troy

1036
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 1: Aikman on here, It's not true Tony Roman here could

1037
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: be his wife. Now, okay, that makes sense, so very interesting. Okay,

1038
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 1: Dan and Dan, you'd have to hate on this show

1039
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 1: because the ratings would be would be good and you'd

1040
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:55,680
Speaker 1: have to start it would be get very ugly. I

1041
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 1: would support it. If my wife was at coreback, she

1042
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 1: could cast it. And will Gregg pick his NFC South

1043
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 1: team of the season, that's a question. Hey, By the way,

1044
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 1: I said, the NFC South is gonna be the most

1045
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 1: exciting vision. It got pretty exciting. You're right, got pretty exciting. Well,

1046
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 1: every year, I'm a year off because I had the

1047
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 1: Falcons winning two years ago. I think this year I

1048
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,759
Speaker 1: had the Saints. So I don't know who am I

1049
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,759
Speaker 1: gonna blow. Maybe I'll go with the Bucks your Heart

1050
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:26,120
Speaker 1: to New Orleans. Yeah, I don't know. Get out of

1051
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,799
Speaker 1: the seven and nine. Yeah, I mean at some point

1052
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:33,399
Speaker 1: they need to improve. Uh. Finally from Mark Ferresse at

00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 1: you that you want to stump for I loved Manchester

1065
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:20,959
Speaker 1: by the Sea. Yeah, that would probably my favorite movie

1066
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:24,720
Speaker 1: that I've seen the last year or so. I loved

1067
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,399
Speaker 1: this a little older, but I love both all all

1068
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:31,319
Speaker 1: things O J related from last year, both the documentary,

1069
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:36,120
Speaker 1: but from ESPN and UH the f X show that

1070
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,760
Speaker 1: the show was actually much better than the documentary really

1071
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 1: well only because I followed that. I bold enough to

1072
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:45,040
Speaker 1: have followed that day to day. And the documentary was

1073
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 1: very well done. But the f X show gave me

1074
00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,400
Speaker 1: stuff that I didn't perceive or detect. I tried to

1075
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:53,360
Speaker 1: watch the f f X Show and I just couldn't

1076
00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 1: get over the actors who were chosen to play the

1077
00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:59,880
Speaker 1: characters just didn't do it for me. It was fast Travolta.

1078
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 1: I thought the acting Gooding Jror looks nothing like O J. Simpson.

1079
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 1: That was that was a little problematic, But it's funny

1080
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 1: if you if you, if you despise O J. Simpson,

1081
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:14,600
Speaker 1: which you have every right to, UH, don't not watch

1082
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 1: that because of O J. Simpson, Because Cuba Gooding Junior

1083
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:20,080
Speaker 1: does not have a huge role in the show compared

1084
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:24,040
Speaker 1: to the Lawyer and and all the other UH players

1085
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 1: tied into that real life soap opera, I'd have to

1086
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:31,000
Speaker 1: throw in. Uh. The Elena Ferrante to me is one

1087
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:34,880
Speaker 1: of the greatest writers that I've read in my lifetime,

1088
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 1: and I banged through her Neapolitan novels, read a couple

1089
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:40,920
Speaker 1: of the others. That was one of those. Are some

1090
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 1: of the best books I read in two thousands sixte

1091
00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 1: and I just read the new Michael Lewis, who I

1092
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,919
Speaker 1: think everyone in this room would like. It's it sort

1093
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 1: of applies to what we do, and it's kind of

1094
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:55,200
Speaker 1: like a weird prequel almost to Moneyball in a weird way.

1095
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 1: Very good. I will throw this in. I am watching

1096
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 1: The Young Pope on HBO. Your Way in It is.

1097
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 1: I feel like every once in a while you wish

1098
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:05,560
Speaker 1: you could you find a show or a movie you

1099
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 1: wish you were attached to on some level in the

1100
00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 1: production and understood how they made it. I think it

1101
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 1: is one of the best shows ever seen. I don't

1102
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:16,040
Speaker 1: think it's for everyone either, but it is absolutely it is.

1103
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 1: The acting is incredible, the cinematography in it is unbelievable,

1104
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 1: and it it can Every single episode has two or

1105
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 1: three super jarring bizarre moments that I love, and I

1106
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,840
Speaker 1: cannot stop watching it. They it lost me. I watched

1107
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:34,000
Speaker 1: first episode, but I I based on what you're saying,

1108
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 1: I want to give it another shot, um because it

1109
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 1: was it was really weird and a little bit kind

1110
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 1: of My wife instantly was kind of out, and then

1111
00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 1: I try to stick with it, but it's definitely different,

1112
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 1: So I wanna. I'm gonna I'm gonna go back in

1113
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 1: on Mark's recommendation, uh music. I like the radio Head

1114
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 1: album a lot last year Sturgill Simpson for me Simpson,

1115
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:58,320
Speaker 1: I think it might have come out in two thousand

1116
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,560
Speaker 1: and fifteen. But I really liked tam of Paul's last album. Yes,

1117
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:03,880
Speaker 1: that was very good. Been playing a lot of It's

1118
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,640
Speaker 1: Raining men in the jukebox that dive bars, and I

1119
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 1: think that songs come. What does that mean though? What?

1120
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 1: Let's the thing behind that a little bit? Why do

1121
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,480
Speaker 1: you like? I think it's just that it's It's Why

1122
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 1: did that song get buried? When they talk about the classics,

1123
00:59:14,840 --> 00:59:18,040
Speaker 1: no one mentions it. Why the thing's right? It's raining

1124
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:24,520
Speaker 1: with two ladies Angela Olson, It's great. The Chance. The

1125
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:27,440
Speaker 1: Chance Christmas album was way better than you could have

1126
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 1: ever imagined. The Weather Girls sing it's raining, then that's appropriate.
