1
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 1: What's going on everybody? John Middlecoff three and out podcast,

2
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: back at it again. The super Bowl is over, the

3
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 1: Kancie Chiefs are champions one to twenty. You're listening to that.

4
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: You obviously know this. There's a football podcast. A hundred

5
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: plus million watched super Bowl. I would imagine if you

6
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: factor in bars and parties, probably like a hundred fifty million. Uh.

7
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: But the season is now over and we will dive

8
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 1: into Andy Reid, Kyle Shanahan, Jimmy Garoppolo, Patrick Mahomes will

9
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 1: do headlines, some things that jumped out over the last

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: three or four days, some stories broke on Sunday. And

11
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: then of course at John Middlecoff is a Middlecoff mailbag

12
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: for those of you new to the podcast. It's where

13
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: we uh, you know, it's kind of where we interact

14
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: with the people. This is your guys show, and you

15
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: guys slide up in those d m s and I

16
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: answer any questions you want. Even though the season is over,

17
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: the combines right around the corner, the free agency. Then

18
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: right around the corner, obviously in free agency, guys get

19
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: cut and trades happen as well, and then the draft.

20
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: So we got a lot going on the next I

21
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: don't know, three or four months, and then O t

22
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: a start just this is still a busy time even

23
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: though the actual tangible games are over. But I wanted

24
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: to start with this. I think the Patriots have this

25
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: saying in there in their building, like the road to

26
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 1: success is always under construction. It might be the road

27
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: to greatness is always under construction. And I think it's

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: a good example of just the saying of we all.

29
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: You know, I've changed careers a couple of times, and

30
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: then you set kind of goals to what you want

31
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: to accomplish whenever you kind of figure out what you're doing.

32
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: And then once you work, once you figure out what

33
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: you're doing. Like I'm in the media business, I set

34
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: goals for how much money and ad revenue I want

35
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: to get from my different podcasts, different things that I

36
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: want to expand the business whatever. Most people set quarterly goals,

37
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: set yearly goals, and we're always chasing that. Unlike football,

38
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,519
Speaker 1: where there's like a tangible goal you try to win

39
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: the super Bowl, in most business they're kind of open ended.

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: You want to shoot too, maybe double revenue, or you

41
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: want to shoot to hire this many people, but you

42
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: kind of pick and choose those. In football, there is

43
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: a direct ending that everyone is shooting for, and that's

44
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: hosting the Lombardi Trophy, and rightfully or wrongly, and I

45
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: do think it's it's for the most part correct Winning

46
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: that thing validates you as a player. Definitely as a quarterback.

47
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: Now as like a guard or a linebacker, it's harder

48
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: to control the outcome. But definitely a coach, it defines

49
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: you as a coach. And sometimes like like Andy Reid,

50
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: most people would say, I would say Andy reads a

51
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: better coach than John Harbaugh. And he was three days

52
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: ago before he was a super Bowl champ. Now John

53
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: Harbor was super Bowl champ, and you go, well, he

54
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: has something that Andy Reid does not have. And ultimately,

55
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: when that game ended, like most people, who I mean,

56
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: I had a dog in the fight kind of I'm

57
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: in the forty nine or business, but them just getting there,

58
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: Like my deals are already set. It's not gonna impact

59
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: me win or lose. Now, if they would have won,

60
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: we'd be talking dynasty all offseason. If they wouldn't. If

61
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: they lost, and the way they lost, it's kind of controversial.

62
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: We'll talk, Kyle talk Jimmy my days of being a fan.

63
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: I tell people this all the time and did a

64
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: long time ago. I am a fan for people I know,

65
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: and I know a lot of people with the Niners.

66
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: I grew up a die hard Niners fan. I love

67
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: the Niners more than anything. When I was a kid,

68
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: I was born in the mid eighties, the Niners were

69
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: unreal and I just rooted for them with all my heart.

70
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: And then as I got into college and then I

71
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: started working in UH in pro sports, it kind of

72
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: leaves you. And now because of the organization I worked with,

73
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: I got people over the legue that I know, so

74
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: I just find myself rooting for their teams. I like

75
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott, I root for the Bills. I like Brett

76
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: Vich and Andy Reid. I obviously we're for the Chiefs.

77
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: I like people with like Matt Naggie. I I just

78
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: like Howie Roseman. I root for people that I know

79
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: throughout the league. And yesterday when the game ended, I

80
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: was I was elated for coach Read because he has

81
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: worked for twenty one seasons and I in my lifetime,

82
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: it's there is no comparison of the hardest working person

83
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: I've ever been around. It's Andy Reid. No, there's not

84
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: a close second. The guy is an absolute grinder. And

85
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: call me naive, call me romantic. I don't even know

86
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 1: what the adjective would be, but I do believe that

87
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: good things happen to good people. Now that doesn't always

88
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: mean that good things happen to good people right away. Like,

89
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: why did it take him so long? He was clearly

90
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: a top flight coach fifteen years ago he went to

91
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl No. Four? Why did take him fifteen

92
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: years to get back? Now? You can say he had

93
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: some tough circumstances. He had some flawed quarterbacks over the years.

94
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: This is by far the best quarterback he's ever had.

95
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: In two year starting, they've come within an off side

96
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: of a Super Bowl and a Super Bowl championship. So

97
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: it shows you, like, when you get a top flight

98
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: quarterback and you're a top flight coach, usually kick everyone's ass.

99
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: So now for two years, he kicked everyone's ass. It

100
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: took Belichick and Brady winning an overtime game UH to

101
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: take him down. Because other than that, he came back

102
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: from nothing. He came back from ten nothing, He came

103
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: back from twenty to ten, and it kind of looks like,

104
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: is he gonna be a coach that wins two or

105
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: three championships, whether he wins two or three or never

106
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: wins another one. I am just glad that from now

107
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: on we say Super Bowl Champion Andy Reid because he

108
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: belonged in that class. He he really did, and when

109
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: you look at his resume, he resurrected the Eagles, made

110
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: them a consistent winner, and change their franchise. Then he

111
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: went to Kansas City, who people forget when he got

112
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: hired by Kansas City in two thousand and thirteen, they

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: had the number one overall pick. That's how terrible they were.

114
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 1: They had the number one overall pick, not the seventh,

115
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: not the twelfth, the number one overall pick drafted Derek Fisher.

116
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: And since then they've been to the playoffs six and seven,

117
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: six of seven years. In the one year he missed

118
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: and he went nine and seven, and he was going

119
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: to the playoffs in those years when Peyton Manning had

120
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: elite teams. And now he's won the a f C West.

121
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what three straight years seems like he's

122
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: gonna win the a f C West. Like, who's who's

123
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: holding his jock? In the a f C. West. I

124
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: like Vic Fangio, but he's not gonna beat the Chiefs,

125
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: Jon Gruden and car come on, please the Chargers. They

126
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: don't even have a quarterback and they just extended Anthony Lynn.

127
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 1: So this guy, you know, It's it's cool in a

128
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: day and age where we put so much emphasis in basketball,

129
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: in football, and in pro sports of winning the biggest games.

130
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: That's how it should be. Yesterday or Sunday was for

131
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: all the marbles. When you play in golf majors, it's

132
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: for all the marvel. That's what we remember. Because ten

133
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: million people watch a Thursday night football game. Hell, I

134
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: think twenty five million people watching an NFL playoff game,

135
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: and that's a ton a hundred plus million watched the

136
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. That's why you are Remember they talk about

137
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: you on Good Morning America, they talk about you on

138
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: the news channels. People like me talk about it NonStop.

139
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: It does matter more, and I'm just glad he had

140
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: a moment. I honestly think it's cooler for him and

141
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: his legacy that they came back that if they would

142
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: have won by twenty or just won a tight game

143
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:45,119
Speaker 1: that they were down ten points with like six minutes

144
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: left in the fourth quarter, and they found a way

145
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: to win the game and from now on. Andy Reid,

146
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: who is one of the most innovative coaches of his generation,

147
00:07:54,200 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: probably the most offensively innovative coach of the last twenty years. Uh,

148
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: he has one of the better coaching trees, not just

149
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: currently but like league history, and just one of the

150
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: better people like uh. Legitimately a very good human being.

151
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: If you don't like Andy Reid, I don't know what

152
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: to tell you like. He's just a nice guy. He's

153
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: a fun, loving, good guy who happens to be a

154
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: great coach, treats people well. His players all respect him,

155
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: his coaches all respect him, the league respects him. Everyone

156
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: that meets him likes him. Think about that. How many

157
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: people can we say about that, not just in sports,

158
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: but in life. Not many. How often do you meet

159
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: someone in life where you go, you know what, I've

160
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: never heard a bad word said about that person. That's

161
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: not typical. I'm sure you can't say that about me.

162
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure if you're listening, they probably can't say that

163
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: about you. But they say it about him. And it

164
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: was just a it was a really cool moment, and

165
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: it was a cool moment for a franchise that hadn't

166
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,599
Speaker 1: been there in fifty years, hadn't hosted the a f

167
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: C Championship Game ever, or you know what I mean hosted,

168
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: I mean won the FC Championship Game ever, Lamar Hunt Trophy.

169
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: So that was a big deal, just a just a

170
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: fantastic season for the Kanci Chiefs. And you know, Mahomes,

171
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: I don't know how they're not gonna be here consistently

172
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: moving forward, but Super Bowl Champion is how Andy Reid

173
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: will be introduced for the rest of his life and

174
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 1: and even then, well beyond when he's long gone, when

175
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: you know, you can't write the history books of the

176
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: NFL without talking about coach Reid. Now, okay, before we

177
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: get into Mahomes, let's touch on Kyle Shanahan and Jimmy Garoppolo.

178
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with Kyle Shannon and I think this

179
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: word gets thrown around a lot choke. Now, you could

180
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: argue the three was a choke because you lose a

181
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: Game three in the Super Bowl in the second half,

182
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: that's that's a debacle. But I want to say one

183
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: thing really quick. We act like Kyle Shanahan was the

184
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 1: head coach of the Atlanta Falcons. He was not. That

185
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: was damn. I'm bald Quinn, who has been proven since

186
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: Kyle left to be an average and best coach. Not

187
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: only is it was dan Quinn the head coach. He's

188
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: a defensive minded coach and if he checked the numbers,

189
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: they give up thirty one straight points unanswered. Like that's

190
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: on dan Quinn. Now, Kyle's the offensive coordinator. He had

191
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: a couple of bad calls in that situation, but does

192
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: any head coach get more off the hook on a

193
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: devastating loss than dan Quinn. Again, I'm not absolving Kyle

194
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: completely from that game. He was not in charge. He

195
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 1: was not the head coach. That was dan Quinn. I

196
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: think we casually, definitely on social media talk about Kyle

197
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,959
Speaker 1: Shanahan like he ran the operation. He was the head coach.

198
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: He was not. Sunday, he was the head coach, and

199
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 1: he had a twenty to ten lead in the fourth quarter.

200
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: So like the Belichick Atlanta Falcons game, this one is

201
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: different because he runs the entire team. He's in charge

202
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: of getting the entire team ready. So going into the

203
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: fourth quarter of a game against the Kancie Chiefs, did

204
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: have a guy, the twenty four year old that has

205
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: an m VP to his name, Andy Reid, clearly one

206
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,719
Speaker 1: of the great coaches of this of his era. He's

207
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: kind of kicking their ass. The Niners were dominating them.

208
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: It was twenty to ten, but let's let's be real,

209
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: it didn't feel that close. And then my Homes throws

210
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 1: a pick. So quote unquote did he choke? I don't

211
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: think he did. I actually put this game more on

212
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, who will get into in a second, and

213
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: more in Robert Sala. They're up twenty to ten. In

214
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: a big game, you have to ride with what got

215
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: you there. And the forty Niners defense was by far

216
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: the best unit in the league, top to bottom. The

217
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,839
Speaker 1: pass rush, the run defense, the coverage. They did it

218
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: all all season long. They dominated when they had They

219
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: had a stretch late in the season, but they were

220
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: missing Tart, they were missing Kwan Alexander, and they were

221
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: missing d Ford when they had all three guys to

222
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: go along with all the other starters. They kicked everyone's ass.

223
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: And that's what they were doing to the Homes. They

224
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:12,119
Speaker 1: were kicking his ass. But you get to a situation

225
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: where the Chiefs got the ball back with a little

226
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: under nine minutes to go at the twenty yard line,

227
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: down ten points. They drove the field and they got

228
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: to a position right where it was third and fifteen.

229
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: Third and fifteen, under no circumstances in that situation late

230
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, up ten points in the Super Bowl.

231
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: Can you give up a third and fifteen? It is inexcusable.

232
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: It's it's it cannot happen. And then it LEDs to

233
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: a touchdown. They go three and out again, they get

234
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: the ball back, they scored another touchdown there, up four points.

235
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: So in about five minutes of game time, maybe even

236
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: less than that. I guess if you start where the

237
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: drive started to where they finally got the second touchdown

238
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: with Kelsey, maybe it was Damian. It was Damian Williams

239
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: who had the second touchdown Kelsey at the first touchdown

240
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,079
Speaker 1: that they scored fourteen points? How is that not on

241
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: Robert Sala. We don't play the game. That's what we

242
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 1: did to Kyle Shanahan. We said it was on Kyle Shanahan,

243
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: not Dan Quinn yet this one, it's on Kyle Shanahan

244
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: just because he's kind of this lightning rod of this

245
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: guy that we pigeonholed the first time that blew the

246
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: lead again. Not the head coach this time is the

247
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: head coach and now we're blaming him again while the

248
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator is calling man coverage. Richard's down a man corner.

249
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,439
Speaker 1: It's third and fifteen. You they're gonna throw the ball

250
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 1: to Tyreek Hill? How does it get so wide open?

251
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: I get Jimmy Ward kind of screwed up, broke inside,

252
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: he ran a double move. Where's the other dB? How

253
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: are you not playing some sort of prevent defense. I

254
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: despise prevent defense in soft coverage, but in third and

255
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: fifteen I got no issue with it. I can't give

256
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: wide open spaces here. They didn't just complete that ball.

257
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill was wide open. He sat there in basket

258
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: caught it. There wasn't anyone around in a seven yard radius.

259
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: How does that happen? I am still in disbelief of that. Now.

260
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: The one area I will be really critical of Kyle

261
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: Shanahan is the end of the first half because coach

262
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: Read was extra aggressive, and I know the analytical community

263
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: loves to claim we're the reason everyone goes for it

264
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: on fourth and short No, every human in the history

265
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: of America, sitting on their couch, sitting in the stands

266
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: have been screaming at coaches to go for it. I

267
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: don't need an Excel spreadsheet to know you should go

268
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: for it. Coach Read went for it right call, got

269
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: multiple fourth and shorts. He was aggressive, foot to the pedal.

270
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: Kyle was not. Now, I do understand part of the

271
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: reason he was not was his quarterback. The quarterback was

272
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: not good. He looked rattled at one point in time.

273
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: His box score didn't look bad. But I never thought

274
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: he was playing in a rhythm, was confident. I felt

275
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: good watching him just on television. I was like, God,

276
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: Jimmy is shaky and he did not have a good playoffs.

277
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 1: I was at the Minnesota game. At one point in

278
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: that game, he throw a pick Derrick Kendricks, who was

279
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: right there. He has done that multiple times this season.

280
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: The pick Jimmy through in the first half of that

281
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: game yesterday or Sunday was hideous. Just throw the freaking

282
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: ball away. Jimmy right now, at this point in time

283
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: in his career, will throw terrible interceptions that look like

284
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: a rookie now, despite being twenty eight years old, this

285
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: was the first season he'd ever started starting to finish.

286
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: Though we judge him a lot differently because he's older.

287
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: It's just the variables with Jimmy Garoppolo and his career

288
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: are just unique. He sat behind Brady for three and

289
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: a half years and then two years and then the

290
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: first year. Who's gonna be a full time starter with

291
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 1: the Nineers towards a c L. But it is what

292
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: it is. He's on a great team, He's getting paid

293
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: a lot of money. The expectations are high. So I

294
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: understand Kyle Shanahan being nervous that Jimmy might turn it

295
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: over because we're all thinking it too. But Kyle such

296
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: a good coach. He's such a good schemer, he's such

297
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: a good play call all or that. I think he'd

298
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: call plays around him, whether it's screens, whether it's end

299
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 1: a rounds. He was doing it all game. And you

300
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: go in that situation you don't call time out, and

301
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: then you know a fourteen second you hit a big

302
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: play and then you realize this be aggressive here you

303
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: hit kid all it's obviously called back. But they were

304
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: in that situation because he just didn't call time outs

305
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: and him not being aggressive in that situation has ramifications

306
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: in the second half. What if they had scored, you know,

307
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: just a field goal on that drive because they had

308
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: used their time outs properly and went into halftime at

309
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: thirteen ten, So then instead of at one time being

310
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: up twenty to ten, they were up twenty three to ten.

311
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: You just never know. So that is the one area

312
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: that I would read flag on Kyle. Other than that,

313
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: I thought he was brilliant. He's a great play caller.

314
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: Everyone's calling him a village idiot, like you guys, didn't

315
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 1: we watch them all season long? Kick the ship out

316
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: of everybody? Did I watch? And even Jimmy Garoppolo. It's

317
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: like Jimmy did not play well in the playoffs, which

318
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: I understand. There was a lot of pressure in the playoffs.

319
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: You're playing the best defensive mind, you're playing some of

320
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: the best defensive players. Hell, I was nervous going into yesterday,

321
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:11,719
Speaker 1: and I'm sitting in Walnut Creek, California. So I understand it,

322
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: and I think Jimmy should get better the more experience

323
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: he has. But you could tell he was rattled yesterday.

324
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: He was not comfortable. He was Kittle's wide open multiple times.

325
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: He doesn't even see him. And to me, that's my

326
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: biggest issue with him right now is Jimmy just doesn't

327
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: see things. And I think Kyle knows that. It's why

328
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 1: after the game, when they asked Kyle what he thought

329
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 1: of Jimmy's performance, he said it was all right. I mean,

330
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: he says that though it's like I when I when

331
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: I hear players go well, I can't believe he said that. Well,

332
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: do we want honesty or do we want fake? Because

333
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: the reality is, yeah, Jimmy was just all right. And

334
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: if they had got like Jimmy, I, if I was

335
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: doing given a letter grade, I'd give him a C.

336
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: If Jimmy had been at a bat, the Niners win

337
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 1: by maybe ten points because at the time when they

338
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: were up twenty to ten in the second half, if

339
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: Jimmy had been playing well, maybe the score would have

340
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: been like twenty eight to ten because they were dominating

341
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: the Chief with their defense. But Jimmy could not consistently

342
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: complete passes. He was thrown it above guys, behind guys.

343
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: He was kind of all over the map. And you know,

344
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: so when I sit here, the word choke, I don't

345
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,400
Speaker 1: think Jimmy Garoppolo choked. I don't think Kyle Shanahan chowed.

346
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: I think Kyle Shanahan made a poor decision at the

347
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: end of the first half. I think Kyle Shanahan called

348
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: plays that were there and Jimmy didn't see him. I

349
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: just think Jimmy at this point in time in his career,

350
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: you get into a playoff situation or Super Bowl, it's

351
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: gonna be hit or miss. Though, like Jimmy is just

352
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: not the guy. Well. I saw him in games against

353
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints when they had to score forty

354
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: seven points to win. Because the Saints scored forty six

355
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: win the game, and Jimmy threw what five touchdowns the

356
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,239
Speaker 1: four hundred plush yards. I saw a week seventeen go

357
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: into Seattle in a game. If they lost, there would

358
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: have been the five seed. They're probably not in the

359
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,239
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Jimmy go eighteen of twenty two for three

360
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: hundred yards. So I saw Jimmy. I saw against the

361
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 1: l A. Rams, a game they had to win to

362
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: maintain with Seattle him throw three or four touchdowns and

363
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,360
Speaker 1: have three plush yards and hit multiple third and fifteen.

364
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: I saw him do it. Now you gotta do it

365
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: in the playoffs once. I say it all the time.

366
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: With basketball, no one cares what you do in the

367
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: regular season anymore. You gotta get it done in the playoffs. Luckily,

368
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 1: they could circumvent Jimmy in the Minnesota game after he

369
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: threw the early pick. They just ran the ball in

370
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: the second half. We all know what happened in the

371
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: Greenay Packers game. He threw it eight times because they

372
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 1: ran the ball a hundred times or whatever. I mean, seriously,

373
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 1: they were what fifty times and they had two plus.

374
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: I mean, they didn't need to throw it this game.

375
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: They needed Jimmy to throw it, and he couldn't. He

376
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: couldn't consistently do it, and that's why they lost. And Jimmy.

377
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 1: There's gonna be pressure on Jimmy to get better. I

378
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: think there is some doubt deep down in Kyle uh

379
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: and sometimes definitely, I mean yesterday or the Sunday in

380
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,959
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, the doubt crept into his mind and

381
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: his lack of belief in Jimmy changed his mindset as

382
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,479
Speaker 1: a play caller. So Jimmy has to get better. So

383
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: at any moment, whether it's a playoff game, whether it's

384
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: it's easier in a regul a season game. It's harder

385
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: in a playoff game, because one screw up your go home,

386
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: and the Super Bowl one screw up, you lose the game.

387
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: And that's what kind of Jimmy the situation he put

388
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: Kyle in. But I'm not gonna sit here and act

389
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: like Kyle Ship and he just can't win, like we're

390
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: just gonna talk about him like Andy Reid. Well, Andy

391
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: Reid for a long period of time was one of

392
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 1: the best coach in the league. So is that if

393
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: that's what Kyle Shanahan is right now, he doesn't have

394
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl ring. Look at the guys that have

395
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 1: Super Bowl rings of the last decade, Pete Carroll, Bill Belichick,

396
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: Andy Reid, John Harbaugh. Even, I mean Doug Peterson is

397
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: somewhat of an outlier given that he'd only coach like

398
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: two years when it happened. It's not many random coaches.

399
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: Though it's gonna win a Super Bowl. I would bet

400
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars on that right now. If you give

401
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 1: me a future bet at decent odds, I wouldn't even hesitate. Now.

402
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: It might not happen next year, it might not happen

403
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 1: in five years. Took Andy Reid twenty one years. It's

404
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: going to happen. He is too good of a coach.

405
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: We've seen it. He is too dynamic of an offensive

406
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 1: play color you learn from your mistake, as we talked

407
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: about it all the time, you don't get better often

408
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: when you win, you get better. When you lose, you

409
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 1: go back into the lab. Now part of going to

410
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: the lab, I don't know if there's much to go

411
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 1: into the lab. Would Jimmy just has to be better

412
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 1: so Kyle can be confident in calling aggressive plays. Kyle

413
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 1: will call aggressive places, but they're often like runs or

414
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: screens or quick plays to Kittle. But when he's dialing

415
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: up plays the Kiddle and Kiddle's wide open and Jimmy's looking,

416
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: I don't even who throwing the ball out of bounds,

417
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,479
Speaker 1: Like that's a problem. That's not Kyle's fault. Would Jimmy's

418
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,360
Speaker 1: throwing the ball and Chris Jones batting the ball down?

419
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: Is that Kyle's fault? So I don't think the Niners choked.

420
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 1: Sometimes at the highest level of pro sports, you just

421
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 1: get beat, like did Clemson choke against l s U?

422
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: Or they just get beat andys you just get beat.

423
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with that. I think this overreaction. We

424
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: want to act like James Harden. James Harden's choked before

425
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 1: Chris Paul. Chris Paul's choked before. The Warriors somewhat choked

426
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: before in the in the three one lead, but they've

427
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: also like last year the Warriors got beat the Dodgers.

428
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,719
Speaker 1: They've probably been situations where Kershaw's choked, but there's been

429
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: other situations where the Houston Astros were wearing buzzers and

430
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 1: they're just beating him with cheating. So every situation is unique.

431
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: But I Jimmy was he feeling the moment? Was Kyle

432
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: super rattle or super tight? I don't believe that because

433
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: he was dialing up plays the entire game like whoa, whoa, whoa,

434
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden he just becomes an idiot

435
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: down the stretch. I just I refused to believe that. Okay,

436
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: let's get into Patrick Mahomes. My favorite attribute of an

437
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 1: athlete is when of a great player is when they

438
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: do not have their A game and they still find

439
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: a way to win. I think the guy that symbolizes

440
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: the most in my lifetime would be Michael Jordan's. He

441
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: could be off he could just be have a bad

442
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 1: night and he would just find a way because he

443
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: was mentally so unfaced. Tiger Woods, you could argue that,

444
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 1: I think the Masters this year is the only time

445
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: he'd ever won a Major when he came from behind

446
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 1: and he didn't have the lead going into Sunday, So

447
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 1: you can make some arguments there. Tom Brady is a

448
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: great example making big plays when it has to. It

449
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 1: happens a lot with great pictures, right when a picture

450
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: does not have his A stuff and he can still

451
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: find a way to win a playoff game. It's like

452
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: the knock on Clayton Kershaw. When he doesn't have an

453
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: A stuff. He gets rocked in the playoffs. And it's

454
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: not just the Astros with the buzzers. The Cardinals have

455
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: done it. He's lost a lot of the The Nationals

456
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 1: did it this year. So like bum Gardner, what makes

457
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: bum Gardner so special historically is him finding ways to

458
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 1: get it done in the playoffs, in the biggest games

459
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: when he doesn't have his A stuff. And anyone in

460
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: baseball will tell you that most pictures don't have their

461
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: A stuff. The majority of starts. Mahomes, who the first

462
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: his first pass of the game that a little out

463
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 1: route or not an outroute, excuse me, like a wheel

464
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: route to Damian Williams, he threw a hundred and fifty

465
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: our fastball that was ten feet ahead of him that

466
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: flew into the sideline. You could tell he was really,

467
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: really jittery. Then early on in the game, Jimmy Ward

468
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: hit him like Jimmy was Ray Lewis, and clearly Mahomes

469
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: got you know, lit up. And he was getting hit

470
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 1: all game long against an elite defense. It's hard to

471
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: play well, especially in elite defense that hits hard, and

472
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: they were hitting Mahomes, hitting Mahomes, hitting my Homes, and

473
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: I think it speaks to it. Even though he was

474
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 1: having a quote unquote bad game and he wasn't playing well,

475
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: I think Aman said bold times, this might be the

476
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: worst game I've ever seen him play. For all of

477
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,360
Speaker 1: us that have watched basically every Mahomes game, I tend

478
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: to agree he was terrible. But he was. But it

479
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: was understandable why he was terrible. He was getting crushed.

480
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: His players are getting crushed. It was a war zone

481
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: out there. The Niners defense are a bunch of badasses

482
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,199
Speaker 1: when it comes to hitting. They lay the wood. And

483
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: I do think when you get hit early in a

484
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 1: game and hit as hard as he does, it could

485
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 1: throw you off. And he was thrown off all game,

486
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: but late in the fourth quarter I guess not late

487
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. But they get the ball back

488
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: with under nine minutes and they're down ten points, and

489
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: the next five or six minutes of get actual game time.

490
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,679
Speaker 1: By the time there's two two minutes and fifty seconds

491
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: on the clock, they scored fourteen straight points. And on

492
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: the drive when he's when they get the ball back

493
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 1: after their first touchdown to make it twenty to seventeen,

494
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: the Niners go three and out, they get the ball back,

495
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: he goes five or five or sixty yards and a touchdown.

496
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: And I think what makes him most more like so

497
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: special is we've seen him when he's on right, I

498
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 1: mean really on. He was has to be the first

499
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: guy in NFL history. He had multiple games this year

500
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: where he threw four touchdowns in a quarter. When Mahomes

501
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 1: is on, it feels like, I mean, do the math,

502
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: it feels like he is he gonna have one time

503
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 1: an eight touchdown game. You'd say, well, unless they're in

504
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: some crazy shootout, probably not because you just yank him

505
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: out of the game. But it would be like a

506
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 1: basketball player, you know, It's like, how many guys in

507
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: the NBA truly have like a seventy eight point game

508
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: in him. It'd be a handful of guys, but part

509
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,719
Speaker 1: of it. And it used to happen with the Warriors

510
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: a lot with Clay and Steph where it's like Steve

511
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: Kurt leave these guys in the game. I want to

512
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,919
Speaker 1: see him go for sixty or seventy points, but he

513
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: always yanks him at like forty five fifty points because

514
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: they're usually in a blowout. So we might never see

515
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: Mahomes get a seven or eight touchdown game, but he

516
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 1: clearly has it in him, Like that's his upside, Like

517
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: that's how good he is. He's one of the most

518
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 1: remarkable talents we've ever seen. But I think what makes

519
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 1: him so special is what we saw on Sunday is

520
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: how mentally tough the guy is, how unfazed he is

521
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 1: by poor play. The picky through to Fred Warner has

522
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: to be one of the worst passes of his professional career.

523
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: I bet if we broke down every passive his NFL career,

524
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: that might be the worst passive his NFL career. He

525
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 1: threw it right to the guy. It was like a

526
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: Jimmy garoppolo pass. And that was in the fourth quarter,

527
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: down ten points. I I almost tweeted, I'm glad I didn't,

528
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: this game is over. But I have so much respect

529
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 1: for Patrick Mahomes, like I could and tweet that, and

530
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 1: clearly the game wasn't over. Because what really jumps out

531
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: about this guy's He's got to be one of the

532
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: most mentally tough younger players we've seen in a long

533
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: long time. I think what defines Russell Wilson's you know,

534
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 1: eight nine year career, however many years he's in, is

535
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: is he falls under that category. How unfazed he is

536
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: by a bad play, how unfazed he is by a sack,

537
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 1: how unfazed he is by getting slammed into the ground.

538
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 1: He is just a mental juggernaut. And going back to Tiger, Yeah,

539
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 1: I don't think he'd ever won a major, you know,

540
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,719
Speaker 1: coming from behind until the Masters this year. But if

541
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: you'd watched his career, how many comeback victories he had,

542
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 1: how many times that he made guys crumble playing with him?

543
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: He was so mentally tough. I think What's what we

544
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,640
Speaker 1: all want. Whatever team you're a fan of, you want

545
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 1: your best player to be, you know, the toughest mentally,

546
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: and Mahomes is just on a completely different level that performance.

547
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: Like I've gotten a lot of people reaching out. Do

548
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: you think he should have won the m v P.

549
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: I guess you could have given to Daman Williams. I

550
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,199
Speaker 1: got no problem given to my Homes because down twenty ten,

551
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: he leaves two touchdown drives. He throws a third and

552
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 1: fifteen where you know he could overthrow him, he could

553
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,640
Speaker 1: have underthrown him. He hit him and Tyree Kill didn't

554
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: have to move. He had the basket catch it, and

555
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: then three or four plays later they scored a touchdown.

556
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: It really was this this guy, first year as a starter,

557
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: m VP of the league, fifty touchdowns and really played

558
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: a great second half against New England and they had

559
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 1: a devastating loss. Second year comes back, looks like he's

560
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: gonna have a fantastic season. Gets a knee dislocation. Also

561
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: before that, remember he had an ankle injury. Battles through

562
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: it all. So you know, despite the hair, and you

563
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 1: know he looks a little different. You think, God is

564
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: this guy you know sometimes quarterbacks, not all of them

565
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: are tough and relative to NFL toughness, and this guy's

566
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: toughness to me is like a ten out of ten.

567
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: It really is one of a separating factors right now,

568
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: is how tough this guy is. Don't let his little

569
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: mohawk thing fool you for his big smile, foolia. This

570
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: guy is a stone called assassin. And of all the

571
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: players I've watched in my entire life, and I would

572
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 1: imagine many of you agree, it's hard to kind of

573
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: quantify just in your head the ceiling of this guy.

574
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: Like this guy got three or four Super Bowls in him, seriously,

575
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: because now we've seen him two years as a starter.

576
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: I guess teams have been good, and they got explosive

577
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: players on offense, but they're not like some all time

578
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: great roster top to bottom again, good legitimate playoff roster,

579
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: really good head coach. But he is by a mile

580
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 1: their best player. And it's not just you know, early on,

581
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 1: it's like his Brady a system quarterback. Remember Peyton Mannings

582
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: teams were really good offensively, much more to me balanced.

583
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 1: I mean, who's look at the home I was playing

584
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: with this running back Damian Williams. I I did this

585
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: thing for Bleacher Report like four or five years ago,

586
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: where I wrote every week all the running backs. I

587
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: thought Damian Williams was just a guy. It is insane

588
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: how much he's improved with the Cancer Chiefs, but he's

589
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: still he's closer to just a guy than some star player. Now,

590
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: he was really good in the Super Bowl and he's

591
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: had a really good I think I saw on Twitter today,

592
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: has eleven touchdowns in the last two years in the playoffs. Like,

593
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: he's had a very very impressive short career. But Mahomes

594
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: changed his franchise. Mahomes kind of changed the NFL. And

595
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: what really makes it so cool is just you know

596
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: this Millennials and all that bs. This guy is not

597
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: your typical young quarterback. He's kind of wired, like he

598
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: could have played in the seventies, you know, like a

599
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: Kenny Stabler type or Roger stallback. Like, just where are

600
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: we playing playing? You want to play in the concrete,

601
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: you want to play in the stadium, you wanna you

602
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 1: wanna go full go up practice. I'm game. What do

603
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: you need, coach? He's one of those guys, what do

604
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: you need, coach? I like this coach. Let's do this, coach.

605
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 1: I'm all in. In a day and age where professional

606
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: athletes can be sometimes hit or missed, would being quote

607
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: unquote all in this guy. If if I had a

608
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: son right now, I would buy him a Patrick Mahomes

609
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: jersey because he's by far my favorite player in all

610
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: of sports. Okay, let's dive into the big start with

611
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: the big story that came out Sunday morning before the

612
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Adam Schefter, the number one NFL reporter in America,

613
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: had tweeted out a story that the Raiders I don't

614
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: even have in front of me. I think just the

615
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,719
Speaker 1: Raiders are prepared to make a big run at Tom Brady.

616
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: And I think on Twitter a lot of people like

617
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: leverage Tom Brady. Leverage guys. Tom Brady doesn't need to

618
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: use leverage right now. If Tom Brady called the Raiders,

619
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: called the Chargers, just those two teams, for example, and

620
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: said I'm in, He's in, it's this isn't the leverage game.

621
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: That this isn't Garrett Cole. You know, Scott boris trying

622
00:31:58,200 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: to drive up the price tom Brady is in the

623
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: iver seen if Tom Brady wants to go to the Raiders.

624
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 1: He'll go to the Raiders. Now. I had heard during

625
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: the fall, probably I don't know, November is Ish somewhere

626
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: during there, that the number one player in the Raiders

627
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: board by a mile was Tom Brady. That they desperately

628
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: want Tom Brady, Mayok and Gruden and they would prepare,

629
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 1: be prepared to pay him, you know, like two years,

630
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: seventy million dollars to make him their quarterback. Now, then

631
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: they could trade Derek or whatever. This is not up

632
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: to the Raiders. The Raiders are not in control on this.

633
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: This is all Tom Brady. You know. There were stories

634
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: that have come out since on Monday that because there

635
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: was a story late on Sunday, I think that Tom

636
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: wanted thirty million a year from the Patriots, then it

637
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: came out that is not true because at this point

638
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: in time in Tom's career, after he's kind of bypassed

639
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: the max amount of earnings each and every season, why

640
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: would he do a money grab now? And then another

641
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: story I think came out on Monday that his number

642
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 1: one goal was to get weapons around him. Now. The Raiders,

643
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:08,959
Speaker 1: while they do have some young talent on offense, they

644
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: have a good offensive line, they have a running back,

645
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: They have a tight end. They don't really have any

646
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Their defense is hideous. Their defense was I think,

647
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: like historically bad for a stretch last year, it was awful.

648
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of the worst defense in the

649
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: league according to every metric. It's not good. They don't

650
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: have any difference making players. Their best defensive player their

651
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: fingers across. It's Jonathan Abram, who played a half a

652
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: game last year. So why would Tom Brady go with

653
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: John Gruden who hasn't proved that he can win in

654
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: this league. He had a stretch of like three or

655
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: four games where he won last year, but then he

656
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: lost to the Jets and the Jaguars. I just I

657
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: can't see it. They have all these draft picks, but

658
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: Tom notoriously doesn't like playing with younger players. So you go, well, John,

659
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: they can draft a couple of wide receivers. Well, that's

660
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: exactly what Tom doesn't like. Now, would Tommy interested in

661
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: dictating who they like? Hey, trade one of your first

662
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: round picks for Odell Beckham, go sign They're not gonna

663
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: resign Antonio Brown. I don't think that's a legitimate option.

664
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: Now for the Raiders, it makes complete sense. Tom Brady

665
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 1: is a rock star. They're moving to Vegas. We think

666
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 1: we'll see if there's some rumors that the that the

667
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: roof won't get done, but I completely understand it for them. Ultimately,

668
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be an option because I

669
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: think Tom Brady the more and more I hear being

670
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: in Miami, he's gonna go back to New England. They

671
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 1: will figure it out now with Tom Brady if he

672
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 1: was gonna leave. To me, the team that has by

673
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: far the most talent is not the Raiders. It's the Chargers.

674
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: They have Derwin James, who I walked by at the

675
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 1: at Radio Row. He is massive. I didn't realize who

676
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: it was until I saw a picture later. I'm like, God,

677
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,160
Speaker 1: that guy. That guy's a safety. Geez Louise. They got

678
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: sweet pass rushers. They got Keenan Allen, they got Hunter Henry.

679
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 1: They could resign Melvin Gordon or draft a running back.

680
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: That's easy. They have Mike Williams. They got duds all around.

681
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,760
Speaker 1: Now they need better offensive lineman. But I just can't

682
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: see Tom Brady playing for Anthony Lynn. And then for

683
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: a split second, I'm like, well, I wonder if they

684
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 1: would change the coach. Well, no schefter, a rap sheet

685
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 1: or someone. I think Glazer. Anthony Lynn got an extension.

686
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: What a win for the Chiefs this weekend they win

687
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Patrick Mahomes established he's the best player

688
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: in America and Anthony Lynn, an average coach at best,

689
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: gets an extension. So the Raiders are kind of a

690
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: no man's land. Stories are leaking that they want to

691
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 1: get rid of Derek. Of course they do because they

692
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 1: want a veteran quarterback that Gruden fields is just better.

693
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: Like that's just the biggest elephant in the room in

694
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: the NFL. Mike Mack does not like Derek Carr Gruden.

695
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: I've heard his hit or miss. He gets hot and

696
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: cold like he is with most players. Because Derek, his

697
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: tape last year wasn't bad, wasn't good, but given the

698
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: circumstances that by no means was bad, it was solid.

699
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: You could have won with it if they would have

700
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,280
Speaker 1: had more talent around them. But again, their defense Derek

701
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: wasn't for the most part, there is you their defense

702
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: was awful. So I just I don't think this is

703
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: like a leverage play. I definitely think it's valid. Like

704
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: this isn't other stories really can know the Raiders want

705
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. You don't need I mean, just do basic

706
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 1: put the piece of the puzzle together and moving to Vegas.

707
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 1: They have no buzz. They've made the playoffs one time

708
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,719
Speaker 1: and basically twenty years the best team in the league

709
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: is now in their division. Are they gonna be better

710
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 1: than the Broncos? Doubtful. Chargers have more talent if they

711
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 1: can just figure out the quarterback situation. The Raiders got

712
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: some issues. Tom Brady would help solve a lot of

713
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: those issues. Just from a pr standpoint, I just don't

714
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be an option because how does Tom

715
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: leave New England. Tom's gonna have to learn a new offense.

716
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: Tom would deal with the gruten and Anthony Lynn. Those

717
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 1: guys are on his level. Man Gruden's just a crazy

718
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, Anthony Lynn's and over his head head coach

719
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: Belichick is the master. I mean the Patriots. The Patriots

720
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: had a disastrous season and when they go eleven and

721
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,800
Speaker 1: five and they lost in the first round, they felt

722
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 1: like their building was on fire, so they reload Nikkil

723
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: Harry is gonna be a good player. They still got

724
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: some young running backs on the team. They'll need to

725
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: add a tight end. Their defense is good, they'll be fine.

726
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: Tom Brady will come back. I'm sure for like a

727
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: two year, sixty million dollar deal, fifty million of a

728
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: guaranteed or something would be my guest the awards. Lamar

729
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: Jackson m v P no brainer. I think he got

730
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: every vote. Ryan tanney Hill comeback Player of the Year,

731
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: right call. Jimmy Garoppolo to me, couldn't be the comeback

732
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: Player of the Year. He's never been a full time starter.

733
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: He had started what ten games before this season. They

734
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: come back. From what I get, he was injured, but

735
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: we don't. We thought he was a good player, but

736
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 1: we had seen just a small sample size. I think

737
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: Ryan tanney Hill was the right call. Nick Bosa easiest

738
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 1: rookie defensive player of the Year in a long time.

739
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: I disagreed with Kyler Murray, and I think Kyler Murray

740
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: had a really good rookie season. I would have voted

741
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: for a j. Brown. Josh Jacobs was gonna win the award.

742
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 1: He was clearly the best rookie. Then he got hurt

743
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: and he just didn't really play down the stretch, and

744
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: the Raiders just lost every game because he couldn't play. A. J.

745
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: Brown wasn't very productive early on, partly because he's playing

746
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: Marx Mariota, who was not a very good player. He

747
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 1: gets bench Tannehill comes in and he becomes one of

748
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: the best top ten wide receiver in the league for

749
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: a ten game stretch and lad that team and was

750
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 1: the number one wide receiver on team that made the

751
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: a FC Championship game. I would have voted for A. J. Brown,

752
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: and I think he got third in the voting. Now,

753
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: if Josh Jacobs would have stayed healthy all year in

754
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: the Raiders won eight or nine games, he would have

755
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: been my vote. But I just I didn't see the

756
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,800
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray thing that. That one was a little shocking.

757
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 1: I have never seen a team do this, especially February three,

758
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,399
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons tweeted out, we will not pursue Vic

759
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 1: Beasley a contract for Vic Beasley. They drafted him in

760
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 1: the first round. It's been a pretty hidden miss career.

761
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 1: He is a good speed rusher. I can't pretend I

762
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: have to go through or text somebody in the league

763
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,879
Speaker 1: to get his like strengths of weaknesses. I think people

764
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,359
Speaker 1: in the league that I've talked to over the years.

765
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: Think he's a little overrated. He's kind of like a

766
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 1: poor man's d Ford. But usually whenever the team that

767
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 1: drafts you just goes, yeah, we're not interested in resigning.

768
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: That's a pretty big red flag. Now you could also say, well,

769
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: dan Quinn's kind of been exposed as being an overrated

770
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 1: defensive guy. Their defense has not been good the last

771
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 1: couple of years. Maybe you could get him as an

772
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: undervalued asset. And you know, he's still talented, like he

773
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 1: can really move. Uh, in terms of just he has

774
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 1: quickness off the edge, which is something every team in

775
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 1: the league looks for. He's a four three defensive end.

776
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,239
Speaker 1: So just we get a name. Like when you see

777
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 1: all these most of these guys are not free agents,

778
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,759
Speaker 1: Like Eric Armstead, is he a free agent? Yeah, in

779
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: theory he is. Butt if they are going to let

780
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,360
Speaker 1: him walk, are gonna tag and trade him? The guys

781
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: that like Marcus Mariota is a free agent, they'll just

782
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 1: let him walk, right. Uh. Derrick Henry to me is

783
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: not a Marii Cooper not a free agent. Those guys

784
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: get if they don't return, they get tagged and traded.

785
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 1: They don't just walk. This is not the NBA, this

786
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: is not player empowerment league. If you if you have

787
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,600
Speaker 1: an asset, even if you don't want to resign him,

788
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: you're tagging trade. Now, obviously Vic Beasley is not on

789
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: that level. You can't tag and trade. But Eric Armstead,

790
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry guys on that level. Clowney, I don't think

791
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 1: they because of the deal, they can't tag him. But like,

792
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: that's the type player you do things for, right, Vick Beasley,

793
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: when when you're already just like yeah, I'll just let

794
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: you walk. That's it's kind of a red flag. Okay,

795
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 1: let's get a couple of middlecoff mail bag questions and

796
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,239
Speaker 1: then uh, we'll get out of here for the day.

797
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: Big time horse fan, thank you, Peyton. I think that means,

798
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: Devin Broncos. What's your analysis on Peyton Manning turning Indianapolis

799
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: from a swamp of a city into a king city?

800
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: It is now? I'm not really quite sure what that means.

801
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: I guess Indianapolis Colts. Maybe you're talking the Colds to Broncos. Yeah,

802
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: I think Peyton Manning put the Colts on the map.

803
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: I mean he changed the franchise forever. That's what a

804
00:40:56,160 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: player of Peyton Manning's, you know, magnitude level of play

805
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: does Peyton Manning, Tom Brady Elway Montana? I mean, what

806
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,399
Speaker 1: Mahomes is doing for Kansas City. I had never been

807
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: to Kansas or excuse me, Indianapolis before uh before Peyton Manning.

808
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: Like my I went to the Combine for the first

809
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: time in two eleven, so I never went in like

810
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: the nineties. I can't speak on what Indy was like

811
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 1: before that. If this is even a serious question, but yeah,

812
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 1: I mean, if you got all time great players at quarterback,

813
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 1: your franchise changed forever. Low key question. With Sherman playing

814
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: so well for the Niners, how long do you think

815
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 1: he can play and stay at that level. It's been

816
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: a nice surprise for us to see him still in

817
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: his prime after his Achilles How long reasonably do you

818
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: think he can keep it up. I think he's got

819
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,359
Speaker 1: three or four years left. I mean, he's not, as

820
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: you saw in the Super Bowl like, as long as

821
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: he can play within this scheme. He thrives in this

822
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: scheme when he gets into situations and man to man,

823
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,400
Speaker 1: he's just not that fast, you know, in certain corners.

824
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: If you don't have super top end speed corners. The

825
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: one position that the forty to me, really matters at

826
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:09,320
Speaker 1: the combine. You can't, like, if you run a four six,

827
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: you can't cover everybody because most guys in the NFL

828
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,319
Speaker 1: now run four three, four four. Now some guys run

829
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: in the four fives. Most guys in the NFL, the

830
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: majority of teams they're starting wide receivers are in the

831
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 1: four force, and it's just it's just a race right now.

832
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,360
Speaker 1: Obviously the Chiefs are on the high end. Sammy Watkins

833
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 1: is really fast, but for the most part, Sherman can

834
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: hang with the majority of wide receivers in the scheme

835
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: because he's so smart. He knows the routes that are running.

836
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 1: Like Adam Feeling in the playoff game, Davanta Adams, you

837
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,360
Speaker 1: can get there. I guess Davante got him, but it

838
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,799
Speaker 1: was kind of like a garbage time play. I guess

839
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 1: you could say. I've heard you talk a lot about

840
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: Andy Reid's record with a bye, but shouldn't we take

841
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: into account that's usually against teams that didn't also have

842
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 1: a bye. I'm a Niners fan, so I'm hoping Kyle

843
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 1: Shanahan also has cooked some things up during his bye

844
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,759
Speaker 1: week two? What are your thoughts? Do you even think

845
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 1: Andy is still good as he's been both teams have

846
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 1: to buy Yeah, that's obviously Andy one off the bye,

847
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,799
Speaker 1: so he's he's three and oh. This year he beat

848
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,800
Speaker 1: the Raiders off of bye, he beat the Houston Texans

849
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 1: off of bye, and he beat the forty Niners of

850
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 1: a bye. So I think Andy off of bay is

851
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: pretty good. Now, you could say that the game against

852
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 1: the Texas, they were down twenty four nothing. In the

853
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,839
Speaker 1: Niners game, he was down twenty to ten. But Kyle

854
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: Shanahan's good off of bye two, I agree that's fair.

855
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 1: The stat is somewhat skewed a little bit. I would

856
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,319
Speaker 1: imagine the majority of games off of bye, he's playing

857
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: a team not off of bye. But that's part of

858
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,760
Speaker 1: like what's Harbo's record off of by? What's Belichick's record

859
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 1: off of by? That is the advantage you have playing

860
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,040
Speaker 1: off of by, you're playing a team not off of BI.

861
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 1: I think we could do what's your record off Thursday

862
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: night games? Because when you play Thursday night the next game,

863
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,760
Speaker 1: you get an extra four days rest. I guess three Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

864
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, we I mean, all these stats are a

865
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 1: little skewed, but one thing is clear. When you give

866
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: Andy Reid extra time, he's good, you know, because he's

867
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: a good coach. You give Belichick extra time, he's a

868
00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: good coach. You Kyle in a hand extra time, he's

869
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 1: a good coach. Like good coaches are gonna be at

870
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: an advantage when they have extra time. I wouldn't put like,

871
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: I don't think the game Sunday was not dictated off

872
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 1: of bye. Really the start of the game and it

873
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: was ten ten at halftime. It was just one team's

874
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 1: quarterback made plays in the fourth quarter. I just read

875
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 1: a Bill Barnwell stat so I got retweeted on my timeline.

876
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo in the fourth quarter was like three of

877
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:33,279
Speaker 1: eleven for thirty six yards. That's just that's pitiful. It's

878
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: just not good enough. Not not at the highest level.

879
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 1: Not not when you're a twenty five million dollar player.

880
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 1: That's gotta be like seven of eleven if it's if

881
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 1: it's six or seven of eleven, win. It's just really

882
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 1: that simple three of eleven thirty six yards. L you

883
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 1: gotta get it done down the stretch. It's like you

884
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: can make Bogie's on the first and second hole. But

885
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: in the eighteen whole of Augusta, you better hit fairways

886
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 1: and get up and down and make And Jimmy was

887
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: horrendous down the stretch of the game. Now it wasn't

888
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,959
Speaker 1: all his fault, but the play Commanuel Sanders, you dial

889
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 1: up that play, you gotta hit it, or to me,

890
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 1: you at least got to give him a chance. There's

891
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 1: never been a ball completed out of bounds, just like

892
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 1: there's never been a ball completed when you overthrow the

893
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 1: guy for a seven yards. There have been balls completed

894
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: under thrown balls. What do you know? What happens on

895
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: underthrown balls? Sometimes pass interference, even if it's slightly underthrown,

896
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 1: maybe he goes up and makes a play on the ball.

897
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: You have to give your guy a chance. When you

898
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 1: overthrow him by you know, six seven, eight yards, it's

899
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 1: it's just as good as just you could have thrown

900
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 1: the ball straight into the ground right in front of you.

901
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 1: It's the same result. Do you think Gardner Minshew deserved

902
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 1: the Offensive Rookie of the Year more than Kyler Murray Seed,

903
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: as Gardner had more passing touchdowns, fewer interceptions, better passer

904
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 1: rating and a better record as a starter. Uh. When

905
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 1: I watched the two play again, like you can judge

906
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: it on the box scores, I thought Kyler was a

907
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:03,919
Speaker 1: better player than Minshew, and I thought Minshi was pretty good.

908
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 1: But I think, if you're gonna vote, if you actually,

909
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:08,920
Speaker 1: if you and I sat down and we watched all

910
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 1: Minshew's games and all Kyler's games, I think Kyler was better.

911
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 1: They both had some bad moments. I think Kyler had

912
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 1: just more incredible plays. Now, Minshew's team was more talented.

913
00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: I mean, actually thinking about it, yeah, I mean d

914
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 1: J Chark is a good player. D D is a

915
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 1: good player. Leonard Fournett still not bad. I think he

916
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: had seventy three catches, he ran for over a thousand yards.

917
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: But Minshew was a great story. He had a really

918
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 1: good rookie season given the circumstances. I think Kyler had

919
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 1: a better season. I really do. I just think maybe

920
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: that's the wrong way to say I think Kyler was

921
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,399
Speaker 1: a better player. Like if I was gonna give one

922
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:48,759
Speaker 1: of the awards to one of the two guys, I

923
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,800
Speaker 1: think Kyler's pretty good and I watched a decent amount

924
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,479
Speaker 1: of him, just given he was in the NFC West.

925
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: I was always pretty impressed. He's he's a pretty I mean,

926
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,400
Speaker 1: he's a better player than Baker Mayfield right now. I

927
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: know Baker went to the Super Bowl and acted like,

928
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:03,880
Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna change my life, And I know

929
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 1: everyone on Twitter's impressed. Like Baker, I just saw a

930
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 1: picture of you with your shirt off with all the

931
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 1: dudes in the Caribbean. You look like me, so you

932
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,840
Speaker 1: can talk a big game. I don't judge people on

933
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 1: their words. Words don't mean anything to me. I judge

934
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,759
Speaker 1: people in their actions. Baker, you're out of shape, so

935
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 1: you've been off. You know your team that doesn't played

936
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: the game in a month. Why aren't you working out?

937
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 1: Why aren't you grinded? What would Peyton Manning do? What

938
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 1: would Tom Brady do? What would Kobe do? What would

939
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 1: all the great players do? You want to be a

940
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 1: great player? You talk about it, but you're not being

941
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 1: about it. I don't know how I got off on

942
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 1: that tangent. After his performance over the past two years,

943
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 1: including two outstanding postseason season years, do you think Damian

944
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,359
Speaker 1: Williams earned himself a long term extension with Kansas City?

945
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 1: I don't mainly because he's a running back and the

946
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 1: way they found him. You know, he's kind of a

947
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 1: scrap heat player. Uh. I thought he was just an

948
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 1: average guy in Miami. You can find guys like him.

949
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 1: It's a great part about this offense is if you

950
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 1: can that's the football you can thrive in Andy Reid's offense.

951
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,120
Speaker 1: Just think of the guys over the years, Brian Westbrook,

952
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:10,120
Speaker 1: Shady McCoy, Damian Williams, Kareem Hunt, Jamal Charles, like you.

953
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 1: You can just find running backs. Every running back Andy

954
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: ever has is good. So I I would not pay

955
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 1: Damien Williams. And I'll be the first to say he is.

956
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 1: He blew me away by how good he was because

957
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 1: I was not a fan, and he, like you said,

958
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,800
Speaker 1: he was excellent this playoffs. He was really good against

959
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 1: the Niners, making guys miss, catching the ball in the backfield,

960
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: running the ball inside the tackles, falling forward. You know,

961
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if his stats were quite as good

962
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 1: as it actually looked. And I think Mahomes deserved the

963
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:41,919
Speaker 1: m v P just given how clutch has passes were.

964
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 1: But if you would have given the m v P

965
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: to Damian Williams, I would not have complained. Huge Redskins fan,

966
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: Here here's a scenario that I'd like to have your

967
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 1: opinion on. Say the Dolphins trade up to our number

968
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: two pick and they give us the fifth pick and

969
00:48:57,120 --> 00:49:01,280
Speaker 1: the pick I believe is theirs and a second rounder.

970
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 1: Just you got more of the question. I don't think

971
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 1: it would cost that much. When the Colts traded up

972
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: from six to three, they gave so or excuse me,

973
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: the Jets. The Jets gave the Colts pick six and

974
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 1: three second rounders. You're gonna give a first rounder and

975
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,520
Speaker 1: a second rounder. That kind of seems like a lot

976
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 1: to me to go two to five. Yeah, maybe maybe

977
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 1: it would. I'd have the text someone in the league,

978
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 1: But that seems bold to move back to the third. Uh?

979
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: Could the Redskins take a deal like that and then

980
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: trade the Lions the fifth pick and the pick to

981
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 1: move back up to the third so we can still

982
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:47,479
Speaker 1: get Chase Young and then we have a second round pick. Now,

983
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 1: you're kind of a genius. This is this is an

984
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 1: impressive little scenario. Please let me know if you're gonna

985
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 1: read this on the show. I try to listen to

986
00:49:55,520 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 1: all shows, but occasionally I miss one. Uh, it's a

987
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,919
Speaker 1: pretty complicated deal. I would say for your first deal

988
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 1: for the Dolphins to come up to pick two, I

989
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: would want to pick five. I think pick five and

990
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 1: pick twenty six probably gets it done. That that's a

991
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: that's a haul. Now, the problem with going five to

992
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,280
Speaker 1: twenty six, you're missing out on Chase Young, right because

993
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 1: Burrow would go one to or Herbert would go to

994
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 1: the Lions would probably trade with someone or just might

995
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,840
Speaker 1: take a player at three, and then Chase Young is

996
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 1: going four. So you're missing out on the player you

997
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 1: want the most. But you get picked five and you

998
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 1: can still get a really sweet player. I mean, they

999
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 1: got good corners in this draft. Uh, just a lot

1000
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:41,799
Speaker 1: of other good players, and you get an extra first

1001
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: round pick for a team that just needs a lot.

1002
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: I don't think it's that insane insane. The problem would

1003
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,960
Speaker 1: be if you miss on Chase Young, the pressure on

1004
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,839
Speaker 1: pick five and twenty six to nail it would be strong. Now,

1005
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,920
Speaker 1: if I was the Lions, I would trade three to

1006
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:06,720
Speaker 1: five for twenty six for sure. Who would you consider

1007
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 1: the third best quarterback in the league by most metrics

1008
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 1: eye tests? It would seem fairly consistance that consensus that

1009
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:16,759
Speaker 1: Mahomes and Russell are one and two third seams up

1010
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:21,280
Speaker 1: in the air. Lamar, Deshaun Wentz, the breeze, Brady Rogers

1011
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,439
Speaker 1: trio started really fading. They're also and then they're old.

1012
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Pretty's forty three, Drew's forty. Rogers just doesn't

1013
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: have much help. I would go Mahomes Russell. I mean,

1014
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 1: Russell's not like Mahomes is one, but Russell's not that

1015
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: far away from one. Russell's a baller. That's a tough question.

1016
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:46,680
Speaker 1: You know, DeShawn has moments. He definitely has moments. Wentz

1017
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: has moments. Lamar has not played well in the playoffs,

1018
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,960
Speaker 1: so I could not put Labar at number three. Now.

1019
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 1: He had a great regular season, but I don't put

1020
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: as much emphasis on running the ball. So if you

1021
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: run the ball and you score eight to twelve touchdowns

1022
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: during the season as a quarterback, and you run for

1023
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 1: eight hundred to a thousand yards, I know, I think

1024
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 1: Lamar ran for that doesn't mean that much to me

1025
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 1: because you're not really gonna be able to do that

1026
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,600
Speaker 1: in a playoff run. You might have a game where

1027
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: you're running around like Mahomes did right this offseason, or

1028
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 1: I mean this postseason, he had some big runs. He

1029
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 1: had big runs in the Super Bowl. He had that

1030
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 1: big run against Tennessee Titans. But you gotta win throwing

1031
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: the ball the Chiefs one because their quarterback through the rock. Uh.

1032
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,399
Speaker 1: If I was doing a fantasy draft, I would go

1033
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 1: if Mahomes went off the board one and Russell went

1034
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 1: off the board too, I would take Carson Wentz at three,

1035
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: I would take Carson went I would rather have Carson

1036
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,839
Speaker 1: Winston Deshaun Watson, though I think Deshaun Watson has been

1037
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,120
Speaker 1: a more consistent player. I think in the right situation

1038
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 1: and when Wentz is playing well, his physical tools are

1039
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 1: far superior than than de Shaun. But I think it's

1040
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 1: fun like we we have a good young like Russell's thirty,

1041
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 1: Mahomes is twenty four, Lamar's twenty three, Wentz is twenty five,

1042
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:10,279
Speaker 1: or twenty six, Deshawn's. We got a good dacks. Even

1043
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 1: Jared Goff, who people love shipping on, isn't at ad

1044
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:17,760
Speaker 1: He's twenty six. I mean, Jimmy had a rough little postseason,

1045
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: but he had He had twenty seven touchdowns in the

1046
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 1: regular season and was starting quarterback from the number one

1047
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 1: overall seed you have. I'm trying to think who else

1048
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 1: am I missing here? Tanny Hill, No, Lamar Brady, Josh Allen.

1049
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 1: I think is kind of an up and coming player.

1050
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 1: Sam Donald. Big question on Baker Cann he bounce back.

1051
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:42,279
Speaker 1: You know, Jamis through thirty picks, but he also threw

1052
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 1: like thirty five touchdowns. Uh so yeah, we Kyler is

1053
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: a good exciting young player. We got a lot of

1054
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 1: good exciting young players in the NFL right now. I

1055
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 1: can't say Mr Biski, so I would go Mahomes Russell,

1056
00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:59,760
Speaker 1: I would Lean Wentz, but I'm also a sucker for Desen.

1057
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 1: I like Deshaun Watson. If you took to Shaun Watson

1058
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:05,880
Speaker 1: over Carson Wentz, I wouldn't have a problem with it.

1059
00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 1: Appreciate everyone listening. It was a fun week in Miami.

1060
00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: It's about I'm about depressed. Stop. It's about eight o'clock

1061
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,240
Speaker 1: at night. I'm gonna go to bed. I can't wait

1062
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,959
Speaker 1: to go to bed. I hope you enjoyed the Super

1063
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: Bowl and get ready for the off season. I am

1064
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: really really excited. Audios. M
