Honestly, it's been a hard week. It's been 6 00:00:19,508 --> 00:00:23,228 Speaker 1: a long week. We've been talking and covering Tomar Hamlin 7 00:00:23,508 --> 00:00:26,388 Speaker 1: and his current status in Cincinnati. We talk a little 8 00:00:26,388 --> 00:00:29,268 Speaker 1: bit of football too. As Week eighteen kicks off on Saturday, 9 00:00:29,628 --> 00:00:32,148 Speaker 1: and while we preview the final week of the regular season, 10 00:00:32,388 --> 00:00:34,508 Speaker 1: we will continue to keep you updated on the health 11 00:00:34,508 --> 00:00:37,068 Speaker 1: of Bill Safety to Mar Hamlin, of course, Cameron Wolf, 12 00:00:37,068 --> 00:00:38,868 Speaker 1: we really want to thank him. He's been in Cincinnati 13 00:00:38,988 --> 00:00:42,668 Speaker 1: all week long, since Monday night. He's outside of University 14 00:00:42,668 --> 00:00:45,308 Speaker 1: of Cincinnati Medical Center. He has been giving us the 15 00:00:45,388 --> 00:00:48,388 Speaker 1: latest on DeMar Hamlin all week long. Cameron, good morning, 16 00:00:48,388 --> 00:00:51,308 Speaker 1: I hope you're doing well. Please once again update us 17 00:00:51,348 --> 00:00:55,468 Speaker 1: on what you know this morning. Yeah, Jamie, there haven't 18 00:00:55,508 --> 00:00:57,788 Speaker 1: been a lot of updates on Tomar Hamlin over the 19 00:00:57,868 --> 00:01:01,468 Speaker 1: last eighteen hours. The latest we heard was from family 20 00:01:01,508 --> 00:01:04,148 Speaker 1: spokesperson and family members that he was moving in a 21 00:01:04,188 --> 00:01:07,788 Speaker 1: positive direction yesterday morning or midday, and we'll continue to 22 00:01:07,908 --> 00:01:11,188 Speaker 1: track what's going on with Damar Hamlin's health. We did 23 00:01:11,228 --> 00:01:14,268 Speaker 1: hear from a hospital pr rep last night who just 24 00:01:14,308 --> 00:01:17,228 Speaker 1: mentioned no new updates to provide at this time, and 25 00:01:17,228 --> 00:01:19,948 Speaker 1: so he remains in critical condition and will provide any 26 00:01:19,988 --> 00:01:23,828 Speaker 1: further updates when we had them. As far as Cincinnati Bengals, 27 00:01:23,868 --> 00:01:26,268 Speaker 1: they returned to work yesterday and I was out there 28 00:01:26,268 --> 00:01:29,108 Speaker 1: at the stadium seeing Joe Burrow, Tyler Boy, Jamar Chase, 29 00:01:29,228 --> 00:01:31,268 Speaker 1: a lot of their star players warm up and discuss 30 00:01:31,348 --> 00:01:34,548 Speaker 1: how difficult it is to transition. But we'll discuss more 31 00:01:34,548 --> 00:01:36,628 Speaker 1: of that later in the show. As now, just wanted 32 00:01:36,628 --> 00:01:38,628 Speaker 1: to give you guys the latest on Damar Hamlin and 33 00:01:38,668 --> 00:01:41,988 Speaker 1: we'll give you more when we have it. We appreciate 34 00:01:42,028 --> 00:01:44,588 Speaker 1: that camp. Yeah, it's been difficult for all of us fans, 35 00:01:45,348 --> 00:01:47,188 Speaker 1: people that talk about the game all week long, but 36 00:01:47,228 --> 00:01:49,628 Speaker 1: I can't imagine for players and coaches. We've heard from 37 00:01:49,628 --> 00:01:52,268 Speaker 1: a lot of them as the events since Monday night 38 00:01:52,308 --> 00:01:54,508 Speaker 1: have unfolded and we've learned more, and we really appreciate 39 00:01:54,548 --> 00:01:57,868 Speaker 1: everyone's openness and honestness, and can we appreciate your coverage 40 00:01:57,868 --> 00:01:59,548 Speaker 1: as well, so we'll talk to you in a little bit. 41 00:02:00,108 --> 00:02:02,828 Speaker 1: Last night, on a league conference call, NFL chief Medical 42 00:02:02,868 --> 00:02:06,708 Speaker 1: officer doctor Alan Sills and Jeff Miller, the executive vice 43 00:02:06,708 --> 00:02:09,948 Speaker 1: president overseeing player health and safety for the league, both 44 00:02:09,988 --> 00:02:14,508 Speaker 1: spoke about the immediate response following Hammon's collapse on Monday night. 45 00:02:15,548 --> 00:02:17,388 Speaker 1: I know there's been a lot of speculation about the 46 00:02:17,468 --> 00:02:20,628 Speaker 1: cause of this situation, and I don't really want to 47 00:02:20,668 --> 00:02:22,988 Speaker 1: address that in too much detail today because I think 48 00:02:22,988 --> 00:02:25,388 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of investigation that needs to happen. 49 00:02:25,428 --> 00:02:30,388 Speaker 1: To understand that many people have discussed this condition commocial courts, 50 00:02:30,428 --> 00:02:33,028 Speaker 1: and it certainly is possible. But I think what more 51 00:02:33,068 --> 00:02:36,348 Speaker 1: important is, regardless of the cause, the key in any 52 00:02:36,388 --> 00:02:39,628 Speaker 1: type of sudden cardiac event is the rapid response of 53 00:02:39,748 --> 00:02:42,668 Speaker 1: trained personnel. And so I think the important lesson that 54 00:02:42,708 --> 00:02:45,068 Speaker 1: we can all take away from this is really for 55 00:02:45,148 --> 00:02:49,708 Speaker 1: every sport, at every level, preparation for a sudden cardiac event, 56 00:02:49,828 --> 00:02:52,308 Speaker 1: making sure that people have training and basic life support, 57 00:02:52,388 --> 00:02:55,388 Speaker 1: that ADS are available. That is a very very key 58 00:02:55,428 --> 00:02:58,148 Speaker 1: message and something we can all learn from. Where of 59 00:02:58,388 --> 00:03:01,028 Speaker 1: immense gratitude for the trainers and the doctors, and I 60 00:03:01,068 --> 00:03:03,948 Speaker 1: mentioned the airway management physicians and the EMTs for their 61 00:03:03,988 --> 00:03:07,188 Speaker 1: care for Damar during the course of what was, you know, 62 00:03:07,788 --> 00:03:11,748 Speaker 1: an emergency on field. So we'll continue to of course, 63 00:03:11,908 --> 00:03:13,788 Speaker 1: you work with him, the clubs, the medical staffs of 64 00:03:13,828 --> 00:03:18,108 Speaker 1: both teams to keep Damar foremost in our thinking as 65 00:03:18,148 --> 00:03:23,868 Speaker 1: we make some decisions going forward. We appreciated all those 66 00:03:23,908 --> 00:03:26,308 Speaker 1: updates yesterday from doctor Sills, from Jeff Miller, and of 67 00:03:26,348 --> 00:03:28,268 Speaker 1: course the work from Cameron Wilf who's been on the 68 00:03:28,308 --> 00:03:31,308 Speaker 1: ground in Cincinnati. Let's head now to Orchard Park, New York, 69 00:03:31,348 --> 00:03:34,308 Speaker 1: where our very own Mike Giardi has been with the Bills. 70 00:03:34,468 --> 00:03:38,308 Speaker 1: Mike obviously a difficult situation from the team side. Their 71 00:03:38,348 --> 00:03:41,428 Speaker 1: teammate and brother, Damar hamlands still in Cincinnati recovering, and 72 00:03:41,508 --> 00:03:43,708 Speaker 1: yet at the same time they've got a game Sunday 73 00:03:43,748 --> 00:03:47,108 Speaker 1: against the Patriots. Just take us there to Buffalo. What's 74 00:03:47,148 --> 00:03:50,668 Speaker 1: the mood, what's the team's place right now, and what's 75 00:03:50,668 --> 00:03:53,188 Speaker 1: on the agenda today as we are now just seventy 76 00:03:53,188 --> 00:03:57,188 Speaker 1: two hours away from kickoff. Well, the word that has 77 00:03:57,228 --> 00:03:59,388 Speaker 1: come up and talking to people inside the building is 78 00:03:59,748 --> 00:04:04,028 Speaker 1: that it's very raw the emotions. Obviously, we know what 79 00:04:04,108 --> 00:04:07,428 Speaker 1: they saw, what they experienced on Monday night in Cincinnati, 80 00:04:07,908 --> 00:04:12,068 Speaker 1: and that they're dealing with that and processing that, and 81 00:04:12,108 --> 00:04:15,148 Speaker 1: we're what sixty hours removed from that, so it's still 82 00:04:15,308 --> 00:04:18,188 Speaker 1: a very difficult time for these guys to separate what 83 00:04:18,348 --> 00:04:20,828 Speaker 1: happened there to their teammate and their brother, Tomar Hamlin, 84 00:04:21,148 --> 00:04:23,708 Speaker 1: and now being back in the building. It started yesterday 85 00:04:24,108 --> 00:04:29,588 Speaker 1: with team meetings, individual meetings, practice, a walkthrough basic, but 86 00:04:29,668 --> 00:04:33,028 Speaker 1: again now they're installing things for what they expect to 87 00:04:33,068 --> 00:04:34,908 Speaker 1: be a one o'clock game here on Sunday at high 88 00:04:34,908 --> 00:04:37,388 Speaker 1: Mark Stadium against the New England Patriots. And so there's 89 00:04:37,388 --> 00:04:41,788 Speaker 1: that fine balance of being a professional and trying to 90 00:04:41,988 --> 00:04:45,708 Speaker 1: focus on your job, but also their hearts and their 91 00:04:45,708 --> 00:04:48,268 Speaker 1: minds are still with Damar and his family, and they're 92 00:04:48,348 --> 00:04:50,668 Speaker 1: they're waiting like all of us for every bit of 93 00:04:50,748 --> 00:04:53,588 Speaker 1: news and hopefully positive news that comes out of there. 94 00:04:53,628 --> 00:04:56,188 Speaker 1: So that's the balance that they've been walking. They're supposed 95 00:04:56,228 --> 00:04:58,868 Speaker 1: to be back here again today once again for a 96 00:04:58,988 --> 00:05:02,308 Speaker 1: practice and meetings. As of right now, there is no 97 00:05:02,348 --> 00:05:05,468 Speaker 1: word on media availability, although there is an expectation that 98 00:05:06,028 --> 00:05:08,588 Speaker 1: based on some things that happened yesterday that there will 99 00:05:08,628 --> 00:05:12,308 Speaker 1: be that would be Sean McDermott, likely front end center, 100 00:05:12,388 --> 00:05:15,668 Speaker 1: and then a practice, which again, as we're hearing, there 101 00:05:15,708 --> 00:05:18,068 Speaker 1: might be some availability for us to watch some of 102 00:05:18,108 --> 00:05:21,108 Speaker 1: practice and then some players at some point, but again 103 00:05:21,308 --> 00:05:24,148 Speaker 1: they haven't released anything. I think this is all hinging 104 00:05:24,148 --> 00:05:26,428 Speaker 1: on what happens with DeMar. I don't think they're willing 105 00:05:26,428 --> 00:05:28,348 Speaker 1: to just say we're going to do this if they 106 00:05:28,388 --> 00:05:31,948 Speaker 1: don't feel good or comfortable enough with what's happening with 107 00:05:32,068 --> 00:05:37,028 Speaker 1: Damar in Cincinnati. Mike, thank you. That was important information. 108 00:05:37,068 --> 00:05:39,428 Speaker 1: I think it's good to know what's happening, not only 109 00:05:39,428 --> 00:05:41,828 Speaker 1: with DeMar Hamlin, but with the Bills, his teammates, and 110 00:05:41,868 --> 00:05:44,108 Speaker 1: everything going on in Buffalo. We'll talk to you a 111 00:05:44,148 --> 00:05:46,748 Speaker 1: little bit, Mike. There's a lot of information coming at 112 00:05:46,748 --> 00:05:49,388 Speaker 1: you this morning. I realize that we're ping ponging across 113 00:05:49,508 --> 00:05:51,588 Speaker 1: the country and the network just to make sure that 114 00:05:51,668 --> 00:05:54,068 Speaker 1: we're setting the table properly at the start of the show. 115 00:05:54,188 --> 00:05:56,348 Speaker 1: So we want to make sure we're all in the 116 00:05:56,388 --> 00:05:59,548 Speaker 1: same No, we all have the same information and as 117 00:05:59,588 --> 00:06:01,908 Speaker 1: we move forward here on go Bernie Football. So now 118 00:06:01,908 --> 00:06:04,268 Speaker 1: we're going to welcome in Tom Pellicero, our NFL network 119 00:06:04,268 --> 00:06:08,108 Speaker 1: in Cider, Tom, a lot of discussion now surrounds where 120 00:06:08,148 --> 00:06:10,828 Speaker 1: we stand at the moment in regards to the postponed 121 00:06:11,108 --> 00:06:15,348 Speaker 1: and yet to be scheduled resumption of that Bill's Bengals 122 00:06:15,388 --> 00:06:18,508 Speaker 1: game from Monday Night Football. What is the latest with 123 00:06:18,548 --> 00:06:25,028 Speaker 1: that scenario, Jamie. The NFL is exploring options for the 124 00:06:25,548 --> 00:06:31,668 Speaker 1: postponed Bengals and Bills game in consultation with the impacted teams. Officially, 125 00:06:31,708 --> 00:06:35,708 Speaker 1: the game remains suspended and it is unclear when or 126 00:06:35,748 --> 00:06:39,388 Speaker 1: if it will be resumed. NFL Executive Vice President Football 127 00:06:39,388 --> 00:06:43,828 Speaker 1: Operations Troy Vincent said on a conference call yesterday that 128 00:06:44,028 --> 00:06:47,028 Speaker 1: they would go forward with the guiding principles from the 129 00:06:47,188 --> 00:06:50,628 Speaker 1: COVID years in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one. If 130 00:06:50,668 --> 00:06:53,988 Speaker 1: this game does not end up being played, well, there 131 00:06:53,988 --> 00:06:56,468 Speaker 1: were no games lost during those COVID years, but if 132 00:06:56,548 --> 00:06:59,668 Speaker 1: there had been, the NFL's plan was to seed teams 133 00:06:59,708 --> 00:07:03,548 Speaker 1: based upon winning percentage. That is an indication that this 134 00:07:03,588 --> 00:07:07,788 Speaker 1: game potentially could be nullified, in which case those two teams, 135 00:07:07,788 --> 00:07:10,468 Speaker 1: the Bills and Bengals, who would play one fewer game 136 00:07:10,548 --> 00:07:12,668 Speaker 1: this season than the rest of the league. That would 137 00:07:12,708 --> 00:07:16,068 Speaker 1: also mean the Bengals would win the AFC North regardless 138 00:07:16,108 --> 00:07:18,428 Speaker 1: of what happens in their game on Sunday against the Ravens, 139 00:07:18,548 --> 00:07:20,668 Speaker 1: and also the Chiefs would lock in the number one 140 00:07:20,748 --> 00:07:25,068 Speaker 1: seat in the AFC by beating the Raiders on Saturday. 141 00:07:25,228 --> 00:07:27,868 Speaker 1: The Bengals and Ravens game is now officially scheduled that 142 00:07:27,868 --> 00:07:30,988 Speaker 1: will be a one pm kickoff on Sunday. There is 143 00:07:31,108 --> 00:07:36,268 Speaker 1: no discussion about postponing the Bills game against the Patriots 144 00:07:36,308 --> 00:07:39,428 Speaker 1: that is also a one pm kickoff. All of Week 145 00:07:39,508 --> 00:07:45,468 Speaker 1: eighteen under difficult circumstances is on his schedule. Jamie absolutely time. 146 00:07:45,508 --> 00:07:47,228 Speaker 1: We didn't think we'd have to revert back to those 147 00:07:47,348 --> 00:07:50,428 Speaker 1: roles from the COVID season, but here we are. It's 148 00:07:50,468 --> 00:07:52,868 Speaker 1: good to have some sort of guideline as we move 149 00:07:52,908 --> 00:07:55,068 Speaker 1: forward with this and look ahead to Week eighteen in 150 00:07:55,068 --> 00:07:57,588 Speaker 1: the NFL regular season. Tom pallisera thank you. We'll talk 151 00:07:57,588 --> 00:08:00,508 Speaker 1: to you in a little bit as well. It indeed 152 00:08:00,588 --> 00:08:04,268 Speaker 1: was a frightening and unprecedented situation for all of the 153 00:08:04,788 --> 00:08:07,908 Speaker 1: on the field on Monday night. Bengals head coach Zach 154 00:08:07,988 --> 00:08:12,748 Speaker 1: Taylor and Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow spoke to the media 155 00:08:12,948 --> 00:08:15,628 Speaker 1: yesterday about their experience and what they have been going 156 00:08:15,668 --> 00:08:20,428 Speaker 1: through all week during those moments. All everyone's hoping for 157 00:08:20,548 --> 00:08:23,188 Speaker 1: is the best case scenario with the Damar. No one's 158 00:08:23,228 --> 00:08:25,508 Speaker 1: processing whether this is a game is going to be 159 00:08:25,548 --> 00:08:27,588 Speaker 1: played or delayed. That that's not going through anyone's mind. 160 00:08:27,788 --> 00:08:30,308 Speaker 1: I've seen, I've seen the TV copies now and everybody 161 00:08:30,308 --> 00:08:32,468 Speaker 1: else was kind of forced to think that way because 162 00:08:32,548 --> 00:08:35,748 Speaker 1: because they're not down there in the moment, so people 163 00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:37,428 Speaker 1: get a chance to process what's going to happen. That that 164 00:08:37,348 --> 00:08:38,988 Speaker 1: that never crossed any of our minds. It was just, 165 00:08:39,428 --> 00:08:41,828 Speaker 1: how is this player gon gonna be okay? And I 166 00:08:41,868 --> 00:08:46,428 Speaker 1: won't disclose any of the private conversations Sean and I 167 00:08:46,428 --> 00:08:49,908 Speaker 1: had except for this. When I got over there, the 168 00:08:49,948 --> 00:08:51,828 Speaker 1: first thing he said was I need to be the 169 00:08:51,868 --> 00:08:54,468 Speaker 1: hospital of the Damar, and I shouldn't be coaching this game. 170 00:08:54,628 --> 00:08:59,788 Speaker 1: Our captains came down the hallway at me and they 171 00:08:59,788 --> 00:09:01,748 Speaker 1: told me that they wanted to speak to their captains 172 00:09:01,748 --> 00:09:03,908 Speaker 1: for the bills. And at the moment, I wasn't I 173 00:09:03,948 --> 00:09:05,908 Speaker 1: wasn't sure how to take that information. I wasn't sure 174 00:09:05,948 --> 00:09:09,908 Speaker 1: what the right thing to do there was. I told 175 00:09:09,908 --> 00:09:12,748 Speaker 1: that to Sean. Sean wenton got his captains. When you 176 00:09:12,828 --> 00:09:16,668 Speaker 1: saw both those groups of players interacting, you immediately knew 177 00:09:16,668 --> 00:09:18,788 Speaker 1: that was the right decision. At that point, there had 178 00:09:18,828 --> 00:09:21,828 Speaker 1: been no decision made on the game, and we wanted 179 00:09:21,868 --> 00:09:24,948 Speaker 1: to go over and let them know how we were 180 00:09:24,988 --> 00:09:29,228 Speaker 1: feeling about playing. We didn't feel like it was you know, 181 00:09:29,348 --> 00:09:33,428 Speaker 1: we didn't want to go back out there, and that 182 00:09:33,548 --> 00:09:37,228 Speaker 1: was the decision that ended up being made, and you know, 183 00:09:37,268 --> 00:09:38,708 Speaker 1: I know they didn't want to go back out there either, 184 00:09:38,788 --> 00:09:40,388 Speaker 1: So we just wanted to make sure that they knew 185 00:09:40,388 --> 00:09:46,188 Speaker 1: that we felt the same way that they did. That 186 00:09:46,348 --> 00:09:50,068 Speaker 1: wasn't important and really awesome stuff to hear from those 187 00:09:50,068 --> 00:09:52,548 Speaker 1: two guys, and frankly kind of puts you at ease 188 00:09:52,788 --> 00:09:56,108 Speaker 1: as to their thought processes one day night, how they 189 00:09:56,108 --> 00:09:59,068 Speaker 1: were feeling, and honestly, their presence now in the league 190 00:09:59,068 --> 00:10:01,308 Speaker 1: and in the media and hearing from them I find 191 00:10:01,428 --> 00:10:03,108 Speaker 1: really really helpful. So what do we think about that, 192 00:10:03,268 --> 00:10:07,308 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor and Joe Burrow both speaking yesterday as from 193 00:10:07,348 --> 00:10:10,228 Speaker 1: their seats, their vantage points, which unfortunately was front row 194 00:10:10,428 --> 00:10:13,468 Speaker 1: on Monday night, what they went through. Yeah, it just 195 00:10:13,508 --> 00:10:16,508 Speaker 1: speaks to their character and who they are as people. Obviously, 196 00:10:16,668 --> 00:10:19,548 Speaker 1: we all were watching at home as that game unfolded. 197 00:10:19,588 --> 00:10:22,468 Speaker 1: We saw the injury to Damar Hamlin, and they weren't 198 00:10:22,508 --> 00:10:24,868 Speaker 1: concerned about playing that game, and we all expected that, 199 00:10:24,988 --> 00:10:27,388 Speaker 1: but to hear just the way they talk about each 200 00:10:27,428 --> 00:10:30,308 Speaker 1: other and in sports, were built up to go out 201 00:10:30,348 --> 00:10:32,708 Speaker 1: and compete against our opponents, and we build them up 202 00:10:32,708 --> 00:10:35,228 Speaker 1: to be someone we don't like on game day, and 203 00:10:35,268 --> 00:10:38,988 Speaker 1: in instance, when something like that happened, When adversity hits, 204 00:10:39,268 --> 00:10:42,228 Speaker 1: everybody comes together. It doesn't matter what side of the 205 00:10:42,348 --> 00:10:44,268 Speaker 1: field you on, what logos on the front of your 206 00:10:44,348 --> 00:10:47,068 Speaker 1: jersey or your sweatshirt or your T shirt. You come 207 00:10:47,108 --> 00:10:49,068 Speaker 1: together and you try to do what's best in the 208 00:10:49,068 --> 00:10:51,708 Speaker 1: best interest of everybody and involved. And that's what we 209 00:10:51,748 --> 00:10:54,508 Speaker 1: saw Monday night. And to hear Joe Burrow and Zach 210 00:10:54,508 --> 00:10:57,188 Speaker 1: Taylor talk about their experience and how it all went down, 211 00:10:57,428 --> 00:11:00,268 Speaker 1: it's so crucial because so many people watched on and 212 00:11:00,388 --> 00:11:02,748 Speaker 1: question different things, so to hear it directly from them 213 00:11:03,308 --> 00:11:05,268 Speaker 1: was nice and it's what we time to expect it 214 00:11:05,628 --> 00:11:07,748 Speaker 1: With everything that Dave saw us, I think it was 215 00:11:07,788 --> 00:11:10,068 Speaker 1: really cool that the Bengals captains took the initiative to 216 00:11:10,148 --> 00:11:12,188 Speaker 1: go and seek out the Bills captains and say this 217 00:11:12,228 --> 00:11:14,348 Speaker 1: is how we're feeling. Don't be under any pressure to 218 00:11:14,348 --> 00:11:16,268 Speaker 1: play this game or anything more with you. I also 219 00:11:16,348 --> 00:11:19,468 Speaker 1: think that McDermott part of it is fantastic. In what 220 00:11:19,628 --> 00:11:22,148 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor shared, I think if there is a crisis 221 00:11:22,188 --> 00:11:24,788 Speaker 1: that happens or a tragedy, there has to be someone 222 00:11:24,788 --> 00:11:26,948 Speaker 1: who sets the tone. There has to be someone who 223 00:11:26,988 --> 00:11:29,108 Speaker 1: has a plan, who says, this is what we're doing, 224 00:11:29,268 --> 00:11:33,068 Speaker 1: this is our plan. And McDermott had immediate clarity. He 225 00:11:33,148 --> 00:11:34,708 Speaker 1: walks over and he says, I should not be here 226 00:11:34,788 --> 00:11:37,228 Speaker 1: coaching this game. It wasn't like, so what should we 227 00:11:37,228 --> 00:11:39,308 Speaker 1: do about the game, what should we do here? It 228 00:11:39,348 --> 00:11:42,468 Speaker 1: was immediate and you know, we're not coaches watching at home, 229 00:11:42,468 --> 00:11:45,228 Speaker 1: you're likely not a coach. As a parent, sometimes if 230 00:11:45,228 --> 00:11:47,468 Speaker 1: there's something that happens, if you're at a park or 231 00:11:47,508 --> 00:11:49,908 Speaker 1: you're on a trip and like a child gets hurt 232 00:11:49,988 --> 00:11:51,908 Speaker 1: or and that you just have to say take him 233 00:11:51,908 --> 00:11:53,508 Speaker 1: to the hospital. I'm gonna take the other kid. You 234 00:11:53,548 --> 00:11:55,828 Speaker 1: justlets have to go. You can't wait. And it's very 235 00:11:55,828 --> 00:11:58,268 Speaker 1: difficult to do that. And I think the McDermott thinks 236 00:11:58,308 --> 00:12:00,628 Speaker 1: interesting because we know him really well and he comes 237 00:12:00,628 --> 00:12:02,548 Speaker 1: on the show all the time and he is who 238 00:12:02,548 --> 00:12:06,148 Speaker 1: he is. He is not Mike McDaniel, who we also love. 239 00:12:06,228 --> 00:12:08,788 Speaker 1: There's no funny little dry quotes. He's not a Rex 240 00:12:08,868 --> 00:12:11,468 Speaker 1: Ryan type like he is put on this planet to 241 00:12:11,588 --> 00:12:14,228 Speaker 1: lead adults onto the football field and in this case, 242 00:12:14,428 --> 00:12:16,308 Speaker 1: to lead them off the football field. So I'm so 243 00:12:16,348 --> 00:12:19,908 Speaker 1: impressed with his poise and his certainty when everything is 244 00:12:20,268 --> 00:12:22,628 Speaker 1: going out of control. Is very very cool. I'm with 245 00:12:22,628 --> 00:12:24,508 Speaker 1: you on that, and I think there's something interesting to 246 00:12:24,508 --> 00:12:26,508 Speaker 1: take from this. You know, we live in this in 247 00:12:26,548 --> 00:12:28,668 Speaker 1: its knee jerk reaction world and also in a Twitter 248 00:12:28,668 --> 00:12:30,668 Speaker 1: world where if Zach Taylor goes for it on fourth 249 00:12:30,708 --> 00:12:33,668 Speaker 1: and one and does a handoff to Trent Taylor instead 250 00:12:33,668 --> 00:12:36,508 Speaker 1: of giving the ball to Joe Mixon or samaj p Ryan, 251 00:12:36,548 --> 00:12:39,228 Speaker 1: the immediate thing is to say fire Zach Taylor. Or 252 00:12:39,268 --> 00:12:43,428 Speaker 1: if Sean McDermott it doesn't squib kick with thirteen seconds 253 00:12:43,508 --> 00:12:47,148 Speaker 1: left to go, in the fires Sean McDermott. We don't 254 00:12:47,148 --> 00:12:49,468 Speaker 1: see what goes on behind the kurt, and we also 255 00:12:49,548 --> 00:12:51,068 Speaker 1: don't know that a lot of this stuff. But the 256 00:12:51,068 --> 00:12:54,908 Speaker 1: head coaches is emotional like you and leadership and how 257 00:12:54,908 --> 00:12:57,908 Speaker 1: do you represent our city, how do you represent our franchise? 258 00:12:58,068 --> 00:13:01,308 Speaker 1: What are you like as a man, who are you 259 00:13:01,468 --> 00:13:03,748 Speaker 1: when the going gets really rough, and how are you 260 00:13:03,788 --> 00:13:07,908 Speaker 1: going to Leadership qualities aren't just play calls and clock 261 00:13:07,988 --> 00:13:10,788 Speaker 1: management and how you manage your timeouts in a big spot. 262 00:13:11,148 --> 00:13:13,108 Speaker 1: I thought this was a really good window into how 263 00:13:13,588 --> 00:13:16,268 Speaker 1: two men rose to the occasion and served as leaders 264 00:13:16,268 --> 00:13:18,748 Speaker 1: and other men and they actually had the right instincts 265 00:13:18,868 --> 00:13:22,108 Speaker 1: and then followed through despite what had to have been 266 00:13:22,828 --> 00:13:27,428 Speaker 1: incredibly arduous circumstances. Yeah. I think their leadership from top 267 00:13:27,468 --> 00:13:30,868 Speaker 1: to bottom has been unbelievable since what we saw on 268 00:13:30,948 --> 00:13:33,068 Speaker 1: Monday night and then what we've been hearing over the 269 00:13:33,108 --> 00:13:37,108 Speaker 1: last twenty four hours. I just commend those two gentlemen 270 00:13:37,148 --> 00:13:39,308 Speaker 1: so much for coming out and speaking. And I can't 271 00:13:39,348 --> 00:13:41,708 Speaker 1: say it enough how comforting it is to see them 272 00:13:41,748 --> 00:13:44,868 Speaker 1: speak on this. I think it helps people process what 273 00:13:45,388 --> 00:13:47,388 Speaker 1: we've all been kind of in a hamster wheel on 274 00:13:47,428 --> 00:13:50,388 Speaker 1: our heads about you know, how is DeMar? What is 275 00:13:50,428 --> 00:13:52,348 Speaker 1: going on with football? Do I think about football? Can 276 00:13:52,348 --> 00:13:54,068 Speaker 1: I talk about football? How is Damar? And it just 277 00:13:54,188 --> 00:13:56,868 Speaker 1: keeps going around and around to hear them kind of 278 00:13:56,908 --> 00:13:59,148 Speaker 1: break that cycle and put someone from Monday night in 279 00:13:59,228 --> 00:14:01,508 Speaker 1: reality for us and how it went down for them, 280 00:14:01,588 --> 00:14:03,748 Speaker 1: Because I think for a lot of us that what 281 00:14:03,868 --> 00:14:05,948 Speaker 1: we saw keeps playing in our heads. It was really 282 00:14:05,948 --> 00:14:09,388 Speaker 1: helpful for me to hear those words, understand what they 283 00:14:09,428 --> 00:14:12,708 Speaker 1: were going through and the handling of it. I just, honestly, 284 00:14:12,748 --> 00:14:16,588 Speaker 1: I'm very proud of them because those two guys, Zach Taylor, 285 00:14:16,708 --> 00:14:20,348 Speaker 1: Jo Bro, they're young in the league and their respective jobs, 286 00:14:20,508 --> 00:14:22,948 Speaker 1: and to do this, to have done what they did 287 00:14:22,948 --> 00:14:24,708 Speaker 1: on Monday night the right way. We have yet to 288 00:14:24,748 --> 00:14:27,708 Speaker 1: hear from the Bills, and I know what we're going 289 00:14:27,748 --> 00:14:29,748 Speaker 1: to hear from the Bills. It's going to be, and 290 00:14:29,828 --> 00:14:31,748 Speaker 1: it's going to be when they're ready, no matter what 291 00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:33,668 Speaker 1: it is. But I just want to thank them so 292 00:14:33,788 --> 00:14:37,348 Speaker 1: much because it's incredibly comforting and I think it helps 293 00:14:37,388 --> 00:14:39,588 Speaker 1: a lot of people, and it just continues this narrative 294 00:14:39,628 --> 00:14:42,588 Speaker 1: of like talk about it, just keep talking about it, 295 00:14:42,668 --> 00:14:44,588 Speaker 1: process it the way you need it. But I just 296 00:14:44,628 --> 00:14:46,268 Speaker 1: want to thank them a lot for coming out and 297 00:14:46,308 --> 00:14:49,668 Speaker 1: just being honest and telling us what went down. It's 298 00:14:49,668 --> 00:14:54,148 Speaker 1: really helpful. We're going to continue to talk about football, 299 00:14:54,228 --> 00:14:56,308 Speaker 1: talk about tomorrow. We're gonna keep you updated throughout the 300 00:14:56,308 --> 00:14:59,548 Speaker 1: morning on of course tomorrow, Hamlin's health here on Good 301 00:14:59,548 --> 00:15:02,788 Speaker 1: Morning Football. Our reporters are on site to give us 302 00:15:02,788 --> 00:15:05,668 Speaker 1: the information that we need. And week eighteen, looking ahead 303 00:15:05,708 --> 00:15:13,748 Speaker 1: to that, there's a spot remaining in the NFC, and 304 00:15:13,948 --> 00:15:16,908 Speaker 1: one of these three teams will be dancing in the playoffs. 305 00:15:17,588 --> 00:15:20,148 Speaker 1: Here's how it goes. The early window is the Seattle 306 00:15:20,228 --> 00:15:22,988 Speaker 1: Seahawks Rams game. The Seahawks if you look from bottom 307 00:15:23,028 --> 00:15:25,028 Speaker 1: to top, if they win versus the Rams and the 308 00:15:25,068 --> 00:15:29,308 Speaker 1: Packers lose to the Lions, Seahawks are in all right, 309 00:15:29,988 --> 00:15:32,148 Speaker 1: and the Packers, if they beat the Lions straight up, 310 00:15:32,348 --> 00:15:34,948 Speaker 1: they're in the Lions. They're a team in the middle there. 311 00:15:34,948 --> 00:15:36,388 Speaker 1: They need the most things to happen here. They need 312 00:15:36,428 --> 00:15:38,788 Speaker 1: to win at the Packers, and they also need the 313 00:15:38,828 --> 00:15:41,628 Speaker 1: Seahawks to lose earlier in the day. But I'll tell 314 00:15:41,628 --> 00:15:44,908 Speaker 1: you what that Rams Seahawks game, it's not as clean 315 00:15:44,988 --> 00:15:47,708 Speaker 1: and simple as a good team versus bad team because 316 00:15:47,788 --> 00:15:51,348 Speaker 1: there's an individual name Bobby Wagner involved. And Bobby Wagner 317 00:15:51,388 --> 00:15:54,868 Speaker 1: spent his first ten seasons in Seattle. He was unceremoniously 318 00:15:55,028 --> 00:15:58,108 Speaker 1: released by the Seahawks. He was none too please. He 319 00:15:58,228 --> 00:16:00,028 Speaker 1: signed with the Rams, a division rival. One of the 320 00:16:00,068 --> 00:16:03,148 Speaker 1: reasons was so that he could play against the Seahawks. 321 00:16:03,788 --> 00:16:06,868 Speaker 1: Is there a bigger game than this. Bobby Wagner returns 322 00:16:06,908 --> 00:16:09,428 Speaker 1: to Looming Field in Seattle on Sunday with all the 323 00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:12,188 Speaker 1: marbles on the line versus the Seahawks. Here's what he 324 00:16:12,228 --> 00:16:15,468 Speaker 1: had to say about facing his former team. It's a 325 00:16:15,468 --> 00:16:17,308 Speaker 1: lot of emotions, man, to be honest, But like I 326 00:16:17,348 --> 00:16:20,108 Speaker 1: said last time, I played him a master of my emotions. 327 00:16:20,748 --> 00:16:24,268 Speaker 1: And you know, but it's going into a stadium up 328 00:16:24,308 --> 00:16:28,828 Speaker 1: being well thousands of times, like played hundreds of times, 329 00:16:28,828 --> 00:16:33,148 Speaker 1: and you know, to be in a position to spoiled 330 00:16:33,228 --> 00:16:37,828 Speaker 1: their playoff hopes is always a good position, something worth 331 00:16:38,308 --> 00:16:41,468 Speaker 1: playing for. And you know, be fun to go back 332 00:16:41,508 --> 00:16:43,548 Speaker 1: there be be back in front of those fans that 333 00:16:43,628 --> 00:16:49,988 Speaker 1: spent so much time and it should be a fun game. Yeah, 334 00:16:49,988 --> 00:16:52,228 Speaker 1: it's technically called we and are we out? Guys? I 335 00:16:52,228 --> 00:16:56,148 Speaker 1: will tell you this. Sources nonsources. Bobby Wagner did not 336 00:16:56,308 --> 00:16:59,588 Speaker 1: like how things ended in Seattle. Bobby Wagner would love 337 00:16:59,628 --> 00:17:02,708 Speaker 1: nothing more than to beat the Seahawks and knock them 338 00:17:02,748 --> 00:17:05,988 Speaker 1: out of playoff contention. Seahawks clinch a playoff berth, as 339 00:17:06,028 --> 00:17:07,708 Speaker 1: I said, with a win against the Rams, but then 340 00:17:07,748 --> 00:17:10,748 Speaker 1: also Alliance went over the Packers. Here's the statement, tell me. 341 00:17:10,748 --> 00:17:13,308 Speaker 1: If you're in, you're out. Bobby Wagner's gonna flip the 342 00:17:13,308 --> 00:17:15,588 Speaker 1: table and the Rams are gonna keep the Seahawks or 343 00:17:15,668 --> 00:17:18,348 Speaker 1: making the playoffs. This weekend, we interwey out, Kyle. I'll 344 00:17:18,388 --> 00:17:20,468 Speaker 1: start with you. How about Bobby Wagner. He comes over 345 00:17:20,468 --> 00:17:22,188 Speaker 1: and we're gonna run it back right, We're gonna have 346 00:17:22,188 --> 00:17:25,908 Speaker 1: tequila in the parade. We're gonna five and eleven a 347 00:17:25,988 --> 00:17:28,468 Speaker 1: disaster and yeah, in the meantime, I feel like he's 348 00:17:28,468 --> 00:17:30,428 Speaker 1: one of the last guys standing. You know, he's gonna 349 00:17:30,428 --> 00:17:32,948 Speaker 1: break the single season tackles record for the Rams this weekend. 350 00:17:33,068 --> 00:17:35,988 Speaker 1: It's pretty awesome. James Lauritis, respect you had it prior. 351 00:17:36,748 --> 00:17:39,068 Speaker 1: I'm very confident that Bobby Wagner is gonna show up 352 00:17:39,068 --> 00:17:41,068 Speaker 1: and play. I think this game is gonna be one 353 00:17:40,948 --> 00:17:44,268 Speaker 1: with Breaker Mayfield and the folks around him. You know, 354 00:17:44,308 --> 00:17:47,348 Speaker 1: if McVey was talking this week, he's talking yesterday, called 355 00:17:47,348 --> 00:17:51,428 Speaker 1: this season a challenging and a humbling professional failure, and 356 00:17:51,468 --> 00:17:53,188 Speaker 1: you don't hear those words kind of like vays mouth. 357 00:17:53,508 --> 00:17:56,108 Speaker 1: Um So, where I'm going with this is, I don't 358 00:17:56,108 --> 00:17:58,468 Speaker 1: think the season's over. I don't think mcvey's checked out. 359 00:17:58,708 --> 00:18:00,668 Speaker 1: Um I think the Rams are gonna win the game. 360 00:18:00,748 --> 00:18:03,348 Speaker 1: I do actually think they're gonna win. I do um 361 00:18:03,388 --> 00:18:05,628 Speaker 1: and Seattle. You're probably be furious about that. Some I 362 00:18:05,708 --> 00:18:07,188 Speaker 1: just want to watch the world burn. I want to 363 00:18:07,228 --> 00:18:09,348 Speaker 1: see a true winning in for the Lions and the Packers, 364 00:18:09,388 --> 00:18:10,988 Speaker 1: and maybe that should have been you playing it, but 365 00:18:11,108 --> 00:18:12,508 Speaker 1: I want to set that up. And I think Wagner 366 00:18:12,548 --> 00:18:15,988 Speaker 1: isn't have sixteen tackles. Do you guys see these viral videos, 367 00:18:16,028 --> 00:18:17,228 Speaker 1: I know you and I saw them to each other 368 00:18:17,268 --> 00:18:19,948 Speaker 1: a lot where like this this couple on TikTok and 369 00:18:19,988 --> 00:18:21,988 Speaker 1: the like wife's like cleaning up the kitchen. This guy 370 00:18:22,028 --> 00:18:24,188 Speaker 1: like pops out and they're gonna quitty, like shoots off 371 00:18:24,188 --> 00:18:27,108 Speaker 1: the confetti like she's like freshly cleaned up her house. 372 00:18:27,148 --> 00:18:29,588 Speaker 1: And then sometimes he shoots the balloon and shaving cream 373 00:18:29,668 --> 00:18:32,028 Speaker 1: comes down. It's like that's what I feel like Bobby 374 00:18:32,028 --> 00:18:34,188 Speaker 1: Wagner is gonna do. Like the Seahawks are just like 375 00:18:34,188 --> 00:18:36,708 Speaker 1: we're good, we're mopping things up. We're gonna throwside her 376 00:18:36,748 --> 00:18:41,508 Speaker 1: own and just I want that to happen. Are you 377 00:18:41,548 --> 00:18:43,828 Speaker 1: going into No, I'm gonna go out. I wanna Seahawks 378 00:18:43,868 --> 00:18:45,348 Speaker 1: are gonna win. I think the Seahawks are gonna win. 379 00:18:45,788 --> 00:18:47,788 Speaker 1: I think the twelve. I think it's gonna be cute, 380 00:18:47,788 --> 00:18:50,148 Speaker 1: it's gonna be close, it's gonna be exciting. I'm gonna 381 00:18:50,188 --> 00:18:52,468 Speaker 1: want to watch. But I think Pete Carroll is a 382 00:18:52,468 --> 00:18:55,228 Speaker 1: savvy vent. He hears that after what he heard about 383 00:18:55,268 --> 00:18:57,308 Speaker 1: what was said about him and training Russell Wilson away. 384 00:18:57,388 --> 00:18:59,108 Speaker 1: I think he flips a switch here. But I do 385 00:18:59,188 --> 00:19:00,788 Speaker 1: kind of want to see the confetti into the kitchen. 386 00:19:01,148 --> 00:19:04,628 Speaker 1: I love Jim. It was very animated. I'm right with 387 00:19:04,748 --> 00:19:07,108 Speaker 1: you on Bobby Wagner. Like the last time they played, 388 00:19:07,108 --> 00:19:09,468 Speaker 1: he went out there, he bald, he played his butt off. 389 00:19:09,508 --> 00:19:11,988 Speaker 1: Now this one is back in Seattle. He played there 390 00:19:12,028 --> 00:19:14,148 Speaker 1: for so long. He walks into stadium, he has no 391 00:19:14,228 --> 00:19:17,068 Speaker 1: idea where the visitor's locker room is. It's a crazy 392 00:19:17,148 --> 00:19:20,548 Speaker 1: feeling walking in and not going your usual route when 393 00:19:20,588 --> 00:19:23,108 Speaker 1: you're going back to a stadium you've played so many 394 00:19:23,468 --> 00:19:26,708 Speaker 1: games that went back to Tennessee and it was just like, no, 395 00:19:26,748 --> 00:19:29,268 Speaker 1: you gotta go left now you can no longer go 396 00:19:29,388 --> 00:19:32,108 Speaker 1: straight like you're over there. It's gonna be a cool 397 00:19:32,148 --> 00:19:35,028 Speaker 1: experience from going back. But I am so out on 398 00:19:35,068 --> 00:19:38,628 Speaker 1: this for the MS out. Yes, out out, Bobby Wagoner 399 00:19:38,668 --> 00:19:41,308 Speaker 1: all in on him performing out on the Rams winning. 400 00:19:41,428 --> 00:19:44,468 Speaker 1: It's last day of school, you're showing up. Summer vacation 401 00:19:44,988 --> 00:19:49,268 Speaker 1: is right around the corner, Video games, all day, role blocks, 402 00:19:49,548 --> 00:19:52,588 Speaker 1: all of these different things. Family has a Disney vacation boat. 403 00:19:52,868 --> 00:19:54,988 Speaker 1: You're thinking all ahead, you're gonna go out there. You're 404 00:19:54,988 --> 00:19:57,908 Speaker 1: gonna play hard. Jayla Ramsey's gonna play hard, Bobby Wagoner's 405 00:19:57,908 --> 00:20:00,468 Speaker 1: gonna play hard. But Seattle has so much to play for, 406 00:20:00,508 --> 00:20:03,188 Speaker 1: and I think they're gonna be locked in, ready to go. Peter, 407 00:20:03,268 --> 00:20:05,868 Speaker 1: you mentioned the fans might be pissed about the schedule. Yeah, 408 00:20:05,868 --> 00:20:08,308 Speaker 1: we've got to show up for the twelves. Yea. I 409 00:20:08,308 --> 00:20:10,948 Speaker 1: went big on how Jacksonville fans can be upset about 410 00:20:10,948 --> 00:20:12,828 Speaker 1: how the schedule worked out, that they weren't even given 411 00:20:12,868 --> 00:20:15,108 Speaker 1: a Sunday night game, and that Tennessee's got a longer break. 412 00:20:15,468 --> 00:20:18,348 Speaker 1: Seattle fans came at me heavy yesterday on Twitter. We're like, well, 413 00:20:18,388 --> 00:20:20,508 Speaker 1: what about us? Why do the Packers get the benefit 414 00:20:20,548 --> 00:20:22,668 Speaker 1: to sit back and watch what we do? Why do 415 00:20:22,748 --> 00:20:25,268 Speaker 1: the Packers who were above in the standings, why are 416 00:20:25,268 --> 00:20:27,388 Speaker 1: they able to kick back and see oh okay, all 417 00:20:27,468 --> 00:20:29,028 Speaker 1: right now, we just got to beat Detroit or we don't, 418 00:20:29,068 --> 00:20:31,108 Speaker 1: or Detroit's gonna lay down, so we're good like they are. 419 00:20:31,828 --> 00:20:35,108 Speaker 1: Seattle fans want this. I think it's going to be interesting. 420 00:20:35,148 --> 00:20:36,988 Speaker 1: Bobby Wagner is gonna come there with head of steam. 421 00:20:37,188 --> 00:20:39,508 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey, as you said, has been playing very well 422 00:20:39,508 --> 00:20:42,708 Speaker 1: this season despite all of the injuries that they've had. 423 00:20:43,508 --> 00:20:45,548 Speaker 1: I just don't think they've got enough guys. I think 424 00:20:45,548 --> 00:20:47,428 Speaker 1: that the Seahawks are playing for everything, and I can't 425 00:20:47,468 --> 00:20:49,668 Speaker 1: imagine I'm taking their eye off the ball. I've got 426 00:20:49,708 --> 00:20:52,508 Speaker 1: Seattle winning, and I think the Packers didn't just have 427 00:20:52,548 --> 00:20:53,988 Speaker 1: to win out and beat the Lions. Did you get 428 00:20:53,988 --> 00:20:56,588 Speaker 1: twitts from Jerry Kentrill and Mackamore. They all the Seattle, 429 00:20:56,828 --> 00:21:02,588 Speaker 1: they're all in. They were all that's great. Gary Payton 430 00:21:02,668 --> 00:21:07,468 Speaker 1: and death Left shremp both that. Oh my gosh, let's 431 00:21:07,468 --> 00:21:10,668 Speaker 1: go to the AFC West now, all right. Because we 432 00:21:10,708 --> 00:21:13,388 Speaker 1: went through a week of the Derek Carr conversation, you 433 00:21:13,428 --> 00:21:16,508 Speaker 1: probably saw David Carr Monday before the Monday night game 434 00:21:17,028 --> 00:21:21,148 Speaker 1: very visibly upset on the network. Davante Adams was finally 435 00:21:21,148 --> 00:21:23,628 Speaker 1: in front of a camera after Jared Stiden's performance and 436 00:21:23,708 --> 00:21:25,428 Speaker 1: was asked if he would come back to be a 437 00:21:25,468 --> 00:21:27,668 Speaker 1: Raider even though Derek Carr is likely not Here's what 438 00:21:27,668 --> 00:21:31,308 Speaker 1: he had to say, Yeah, absolutely. I mean, like I said, 439 00:21:31,868 --> 00:21:33,748 Speaker 1: I came here. You know, I wouldn't have been here 440 00:21:33,988 --> 00:21:36,908 Speaker 1: or ended up here originally probably you know, if Derek 441 00:21:36,988 --> 00:21:39,628 Speaker 1: wasn't here, But it doesn't necessarily mean that I won't 442 00:21:39,628 --> 00:21:42,348 Speaker 1: be here, you know, in the event that he's not here. Um, 443 00:21:42,388 --> 00:21:44,388 Speaker 1: he's that's that's my boy. Obviously I got his back 444 00:21:44,388 --> 00:21:46,668 Speaker 1: through anything. I think I've made that more than clear 445 00:21:46,708 --> 00:21:49,068 Speaker 1: at this point, and I support him and support everything 446 00:21:49,068 --> 00:21:51,428 Speaker 1: that he has, um, you know, moving forward as well. 447 00:21:51,468 --> 00:21:54,228 Speaker 1: But um, you know, my dream was to play for 448 00:21:54,268 --> 00:21:57,268 Speaker 1: this team before he was a Raider, obviously, and at 449 00:21:57,268 --> 00:21:58,988 Speaker 1: this point I want to, you know, obviously try to 450 00:21:59,028 --> 00:22:01,708 Speaker 1: make this thing work and continue on doing what I'm 451 00:22:01,708 --> 00:22:04,028 Speaker 1: doing here and um, you know myself get better and 452 00:22:04,068 --> 00:22:06,028 Speaker 1: obvious you see the team growing get better as well. 453 00:22:08,108 --> 00:22:10,708 Speaker 1: Good stuff from Davante Adams. He was very vocal on 454 00:22:10,748 --> 00:22:14,228 Speaker 1: Instagram about how upset he was to see Derek Carby 455 00:22:14,468 --> 00:22:16,988 Speaker 1: rereplace and then went out there and absolutely had an 456 00:22:16,988 --> 00:22:19,508 Speaker 1: awesome game with Jared Sidham throwing him the rock But 457 00:22:19,668 --> 00:22:21,908 Speaker 1: let's go back to our guy, Derek Carr. For nine years, 458 00:22:21,948 --> 00:22:23,668 Speaker 1: we watched him for six years on this show, we 459 00:22:23,748 --> 00:22:28,228 Speaker 1: talked about him. His future is interesting here because the 460 00:22:28,268 --> 00:22:31,788 Speaker 1: contract as of right now is he's guaranteed forty million 461 00:22:31,828 --> 00:22:33,708 Speaker 1: dollars from the Raiders if he's still on the roster 462 00:22:33,868 --> 00:22:36,628 Speaker 1: three days after the Super Bowl, meaning they're most likely 463 00:22:36,628 --> 00:22:38,068 Speaker 1: going to try to trade him. He has a no 464 00:22:38,148 --> 00:22:40,388 Speaker 1: trade clause so he can approve which team he goes 465 00:22:40,428 --> 00:22:43,308 Speaker 1: to or they're just gonna cut him out right. Here's 466 00:22:43,348 --> 00:22:46,188 Speaker 1: my statement. With all these quarterback issues around the league, 467 00:22:46,188 --> 00:22:48,588 Speaker 1: and we have seen more storting quarterbacks this season takes 468 00:22:48,668 --> 00:22:51,948 Speaker 1: naps than any season in NFL history before. Derek Carr 469 00:22:51,988 --> 00:22:55,868 Speaker 1: is worth a first round pick this offseason. Are we 470 00:22:55,948 --> 00:22:57,908 Speaker 1: in or are we out? Jamie? We'll start with you. 471 00:22:59,148 --> 00:23:02,708 Speaker 1: I'm out. I'm out on the five year value that 472 00:23:02,828 --> 00:23:06,428 Speaker 1: you get from a rookie pick. From a first round pick, 473 00:23:06,908 --> 00:23:10,708 Speaker 1: you could get the highest of talents at very little 474 00:23:10,788 --> 00:23:13,708 Speaker 1: cost to you. Daniel Jones playing on his fifth year 475 00:23:13,788 --> 00:23:15,828 Speaker 1: because the Giants and look at what they're getting from him, 476 00:23:15,988 --> 00:23:17,788 Speaker 1: you're gonna trade that in for And I don't even 477 00:23:17,828 --> 00:23:21,148 Speaker 1: know if cap hit thirty four million dollars in twenty 478 00:23:21,188 --> 00:23:23,908 Speaker 1: twenty three. If I read that right, that's what you're 479 00:23:23,908 --> 00:23:26,428 Speaker 1: gonna give up a first round pick for. I'm out 480 00:23:26,428 --> 00:23:28,388 Speaker 1: on that because you don't even know if he's gonna 481 00:23:28,388 --> 00:23:31,668 Speaker 1: be your starter. He wasn't in Las Vegas. I mean, 482 00:23:31,748 --> 00:23:34,548 Speaker 1: you're gonna bring him in, and we saw it happing 483 00:23:34,588 --> 00:23:37,428 Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson this season. You give a guy money 484 00:23:37,788 --> 00:23:41,228 Speaker 1: and it still doesn't pan out. You wait nine, ten, eleven, 485 00:23:41,348 --> 00:23:43,548 Speaker 1: twelve weeks into the season. Now, there are a lot 486 00:23:43,628 --> 00:23:46,268 Speaker 1: of factors at play with the straight up value in 487 00:23:46,308 --> 00:23:49,148 Speaker 1: a first round pick and the next five years. I 488 00:23:49,188 --> 00:23:52,308 Speaker 1: cannot imagine giving that up from a dollar standpoint. I 489 00:23:52,348 --> 00:23:54,708 Speaker 1: went back and forth on this, and it's hard with him, 490 00:23:54,748 --> 00:23:58,508 Speaker 1: isn't it. It's also his career in the microscope, his 491 00:23:58,548 --> 00:24:00,988 Speaker 1: whole legacy is complicated, it really is. Yeah, there's a 492 00:24:00,988 --> 00:24:03,068 Speaker 1: lot to life. He's been really good, but when you 493 00:24:03,108 --> 00:24:05,348 Speaker 1: look at the team success, which you can't put all 494 00:24:05,388 --> 00:24:08,068 Speaker 1: on him, hasn't been there. But I am in for 495 00:24:08,148 --> 00:24:10,908 Speaker 1: the right team, and for me, I'm going to New 496 00:24:10,988 --> 00:24:13,588 Speaker 1: York Jets. Like Jamie, you mentioned draft picks. You look 497 00:24:13,628 --> 00:24:16,268 Speaker 1: at some of the quarterbacks the Jets have drafted. As 498 00:24:16,268 --> 00:24:18,748 Speaker 1: of late Zach Wilson isn't panting out. But then you 499 00:24:18,788 --> 00:24:21,948 Speaker 1: had Sam Donald, you had Geno Smith, you have Mark Sanchez. 500 00:24:22,148 --> 00:24:24,908 Speaker 1: The draft doesn't guarantee that you have your guy for 501 00:24:24,948 --> 00:24:27,948 Speaker 1: the next five years. And then even on top of that, 502 00:24:28,188 --> 00:24:30,188 Speaker 1: like a guy like Daniel Jones or just a rookie 503 00:24:30,228 --> 00:24:33,268 Speaker 1: quarterback in general coming into their own. The New York 504 00:24:33,308 --> 00:24:35,228 Speaker 1: Jets are ready to win right now. Like we watched 505 00:24:35,268 --> 00:24:38,508 Speaker 1: an elite defense play without much of an offense all 506 00:24:38,548 --> 00:24:42,148 Speaker 1: season long. We're seeing Garrett Wilson go off, Elijah Moore 507 00:24:42,268 --> 00:24:45,548 Speaker 1: going off, with Mike White thrown and passes. Greece Hall 508 00:24:45,588 --> 00:24:47,468 Speaker 1: will be back next year. We saw the type of 509 00:24:47,548 --> 00:24:50,348 Speaker 1: rookie season he's had, Michael Carter's in the backfield, the 510 00:24:50,628 --> 00:24:53,508 Speaker 1: injuries happening. A guy like Zonovan Knight shows up and 511 00:24:53,508 --> 00:24:56,268 Speaker 1: it's just like my duans. He's talented as well. So 512 00:24:56,428 --> 00:24:58,308 Speaker 1: for me, you're the New York Jets and you have 513 00:24:58,308 --> 00:25:00,948 Speaker 1: a team that is ready to win right now. Then 514 00:25:01,108 --> 00:25:03,428 Speaker 1: one first round draft pick, I'm willing to go in 515 00:25:03,588 --> 00:25:07,628 Speaker 1: and go get Derek Tough. So I'm kind of doing 516 00:25:07,628 --> 00:25:10,428 Speaker 1: the window shopping thing like he's doing it. So if 517 00:25:10,468 --> 00:25:12,148 Speaker 1: you look at a team that will have a first 518 00:25:12,228 --> 00:25:15,548 Speaker 1: round pick and maybe be looking for quarterback. It's pretty tight. 519 00:25:15,548 --> 00:25:17,188 Speaker 1: And then I thought it was interesting what David Carr 520 00:25:17,268 --> 00:25:19,628 Speaker 1: was talking about was that he would wave the no 521 00:25:19,788 --> 00:25:21,988 Speaker 1: trade clause, but that he wants to go somewhere where 522 00:25:21,988 --> 00:25:25,908 Speaker 1: there's us a solid based stability between the ownership and 523 00:25:25,908 --> 00:25:28,868 Speaker 1: the head coach. So let me just throw some Washington 524 00:25:29,108 --> 00:25:32,788 Speaker 1: and I don't know, Houston. I don't know even if 525 00:25:32,788 --> 00:25:35,108 Speaker 1: the Colts were to make a move, I don't know 526 00:25:35,228 --> 00:25:38,668 Speaker 1: like that. Those are all crazy situations. Throw that word 527 00:25:38,668 --> 00:25:42,588 Speaker 1: around with either unclear ownership moving or an unclear head 528 00:25:42,628 --> 00:25:45,348 Speaker 1: coach like, I don't see a real landing spot for 529 00:25:45,468 --> 00:25:47,748 Speaker 1: him to be, Like, yeah, I'll wave that, I'll go 530 00:25:47,788 --> 00:25:49,628 Speaker 1: to be the Houston Texans quarterback. I don't know who 531 00:25:49,668 --> 00:25:51,148 Speaker 1: my head coach is gonna be. I don't know who 532 00:25:51,148 --> 00:25:53,068 Speaker 1: the ownership is going to be in Washington. I don't 533 00:25:53,108 --> 00:25:54,748 Speaker 1: see a real landing spot, so I'm gonna say no. 534 00:25:54,948 --> 00:25:57,228 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting that the spot that it comes 535 00:25:57,268 --> 00:26:01,868 Speaker 1: to mind for me is Tampa Bay. But we won't 536 00:26:01,908 --> 00:26:04,788 Speaker 1: know if Brady like, unless Brady's like, I'm definitely definitely 537 00:26:04,828 --> 00:26:06,308 Speaker 1: gonna be three days after this, it's not gonna be 538 00:26:06,308 --> 00:26:07,788 Speaker 1: three day He's gonna take his time, and even if 539 00:26:07,788 --> 00:26:09,988 Speaker 1: he retires in January, after what we went through last year, 540 00:26:09,988 --> 00:26:12,548 Speaker 1: I don't think Tampa's gonna rush to trade for a 541 00:26:12,668 --> 00:26:15,708 Speaker 1: forty million dollars quarterback while Brady still is withering in 542 00:26:15,748 --> 00:26:18,748 Speaker 1: the win. Jets make a lot of sense. The Jets 543 00:26:18,748 --> 00:26:21,828 Speaker 1: reminds me a little bit of when the Rams went 544 00:26:21,868 --> 00:26:25,708 Speaker 1: and got Stafford, and that Stafford had this great statistical 545 00:26:25,788 --> 00:26:29,028 Speaker 1: career and yet hadn't had the guys around him necessarily 546 00:26:29,068 --> 00:26:32,588 Speaker 1: to live. Derek car had everyone around that was a 547 00:26:32,668 --> 00:26:35,188 Speaker 1: really good team this year offensively, And is he gonna 548 00:26:35,228 --> 00:26:38,628 Speaker 1: be better with the Jets than he was with what 549 00:26:38,748 --> 00:26:41,188 Speaker 1: he had around him in Vegas? I think it's immutually. 550 00:26:41,188 --> 00:26:43,108 Speaker 1: Everyone just assumes Derek Carr is going to fetch a 551 00:26:43,148 --> 00:26:45,508 Speaker 1: first round pick. We'll see. I don't think the season 552 00:26:45,548 --> 00:26:47,708 Speaker 1: did very good for Derek Carr. Here. Here's what the 553 00:26:47,788 --> 00:26:51,708 Speaker 1: question implies, is that a first round pick, you're assuming 554 00:26:51,708 --> 00:26:53,748 Speaker 1: that the team was going to use it on a quarterback. 555 00:26:53,868 --> 00:26:56,468 Speaker 1: And it's like maybe that team that has that first 556 00:26:56,548 --> 00:26:59,268 Speaker 1: round pick, that's maybe use it on somebody else, especially 557 00:26:59,308 --> 00:27:00,868 Speaker 1: if it's like the Texans, like, go out and get 558 00:27:00,868 --> 00:27:04,028 Speaker 1: a Will Anderson. I don't like your defense could change 559 00:27:04,108 --> 00:27:06,668 Speaker 1: at the name of somebody like that. Whereas is your 560 00:27:06,668 --> 00:27:09,788 Speaker 1: offense really going to fully change if you bring in 561 00:27:09,828 --> 00:27:12,028 Speaker 1: a Derek Carry. Some teams that have a first round 562 00:27:12,028 --> 00:27:14,748 Speaker 1: pick have so many other issues besides just that. The 563 00:27:14,788 --> 00:27:16,748 Speaker 1: tough thing is, like, you look at the Texans and 564 00:27:17,028 --> 00:27:19,948 Speaker 1: I'm watching their game last weekend. Davis Mills is in 565 00:27:19,988 --> 00:27:22,988 Speaker 1: one possession, Driscoll's in the next possession. Beside, you're not 566 00:27:22,988 --> 00:27:25,468 Speaker 1: gonna win football games at a quarterback. Do you think 567 00:27:25,508 --> 00:27:29,868 Speaker 1: there's a chance that Car remains on the Raiders? No chance? 568 00:27:30,548 --> 00:27:32,868 Speaker 1: Why did you say, just for the standpoint of his 569 00:27:32,908 --> 00:27:35,148 Speaker 1: three days after the Super Bowl? Do you just release him? 570 00:27:35,148 --> 00:27:38,948 Speaker 1: We looked at Jimmy Garoppolo where his contract was restructured 571 00:27:39,028 --> 00:27:41,788 Speaker 1: late late and then he was moved at a different 572 00:27:41,788 --> 00:27:44,348 Speaker 1: point for a Car, I think Car's too prideful to 573 00:27:44,388 --> 00:27:47,988 Speaker 1: renegotiate his contract, and I can't see any situation where 574 00:27:48,188 --> 00:27:50,108 Speaker 1: with the money he remains the way they did. They 575 00:27:50,148 --> 00:27:52,148 Speaker 1: benched him for jim Yeah, how to make a decisions, 576 00:27:52,188 --> 00:27:54,068 Speaker 1: that's just my thoughts. Yeah, oh yeah, for sure. Yeah, 577 00:27:54,108 --> 00:27:55,428 Speaker 1: you know what you need to do you need to 578 00:27:55,508 --> 00:27:57,548 Speaker 1: draft a quarterback in the seventh round with the final 579 00:27:57,588 --> 00:27:59,188 Speaker 1: pick like the forty nine ers did. Guys, what are 580 00:27:59,188 --> 00:28:03,428 Speaker 1: the expectations for brock Purty. Brock Purty my man, first 581 00:28:03,468 --> 00:28:06,388 Speaker 1: playoff of parents coming up, Brock. It's a couple of 582 00:28:06,388 --> 00:28:09,028 Speaker 1: weeks away. We'll have more on brock Purty, the Niners, 583 00:28:09,028 --> 00:28:11,508 Speaker 1: the NFC playoffs right after this. Goodn't we in? We out? 584 00:28:11,548 --> 00:28:19,748 Speaker 1: Period spirited, I'm good spirited. You know. You look at 585 00:28:19,788 --> 00:28:23,148 Speaker 1: the last two years of my film, um, in college 586 00:28:23,148 --> 00:28:25,228 Speaker 1: and everything like that. There's there's some parts in my 587 00:28:25,268 --> 00:28:27,268 Speaker 1: game where yeah, like I had to work and improve 588 00:28:27,348 --> 00:28:30,348 Speaker 1: on and so, um, I'm honest and open about that 589 00:28:30,468 --> 00:28:33,588 Speaker 1: with myself. Um, but there's always been this part of 590 00:28:33,628 --> 00:28:35,308 Speaker 1: me like, man, when I'm playing my best football, or 591 00:28:35,348 --> 00:28:37,668 Speaker 1: I know I can play at the next level and 592 00:28:37,668 --> 00:28:39,708 Speaker 1: and you know, take a team down the field and 593 00:28:40,148 --> 00:28:42,268 Speaker 1: be the guy on the team to to help us 594 00:28:42,268 --> 00:28:43,908 Speaker 1: win and put points up on the board. So I've 595 00:28:43,908 --> 00:28:47,228 Speaker 1: always believed in myself. Um, but there there were areas 596 00:28:47,228 --> 00:28:48,548 Speaker 1: in my game that I had to clean up. And 597 00:28:48,628 --> 00:28:51,148 Speaker 1: that's you know, something that I'm not you know, secret 598 00:28:51,148 --> 00:28:52,868 Speaker 1: about or anything like I'm open about it. I'm real 599 00:28:52,908 --> 00:28:58,188 Speaker 1: with myself, all right. So that was brock Purty earlier 600 00:28:58,228 --> 00:29:01,308 Speaker 1: this week, talking about being drafted in the seventh round, 601 00:29:01,308 --> 00:29:04,908 Speaker 1: the final pick, but always believing in himself, making changes 602 00:29:04,948 --> 00:29:07,148 Speaker 1: when he thought they needed to, improving to the point 603 00:29:07,188 --> 00:29:09,308 Speaker 1: where here we are with brock Purty this season. He's 604 00:29:09,348 --> 00:29:13,508 Speaker 1: become just the fourth rookie quarterbacks since nineteen fifty to 605 00:29:13,708 --> 00:29:16,428 Speaker 1: win his first four starts. The last time that happened 606 00:29:16,588 --> 00:29:20,548 Speaker 1: was when Ben Roethlisberger did it nearly twenty years ago, 607 00:29:20,988 --> 00:29:24,588 Speaker 1: and he won his first thirteen four thirteen. Like, that's 608 00:29:24,628 --> 00:29:26,868 Speaker 1: pretty cool. That's I mean, he's got a couple more 609 00:29:26,868 --> 00:29:28,668 Speaker 1: to go, but that's cool list to be on. Yeah, 610 00:29:28,708 --> 00:29:30,268 Speaker 1: what do we make of brock Purty and what he's 611 00:29:30,268 --> 00:29:32,788 Speaker 1: been able to do what he could potentially do the 612 00:29:32,828 --> 00:29:35,388 Speaker 1: rest of the season with a pretty good team. Roethlisberger's 613 00:29:35,388 --> 00:29:37,428 Speaker 1: team was awesome that year he came in for Tommy Maddox. 614 00:29:37,468 --> 00:29:40,388 Speaker 1: He won those first games, they are steamrolling through the 615 00:29:40,388 --> 00:29:42,468 Speaker 1: playoffs and then a guy named Brady met him there. 616 00:29:43,548 --> 00:29:46,588 Speaker 1: All this stuff with parties cool. I think January football 617 00:29:46,668 --> 00:29:48,548 Speaker 1: is a different deal. And you know they'll beat the 618 00:29:48,548 --> 00:29:50,508 Speaker 1: Cardinals this weekend and they might be the one season 619 00:29:50,508 --> 00:29:53,108 Speaker 1: he goes Coulouse, but they'll be a home playoff team 620 00:29:53,148 --> 00:29:56,988 Speaker 1: for the wild card round, the division around, and then 621 00:29:57,028 --> 00:29:59,028 Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game. They either have to go on 622 00:29:59,068 --> 00:30:02,428 Speaker 1: the road or they'll be at home versus good team, 623 00:30:02,468 --> 00:30:04,868 Speaker 1: and then they'll play in a super Bowl against Mahomes, 624 00:30:05,388 --> 00:30:11,588 Speaker 1: Alan Burrow, you name it. It It could be anybody. Herbert Herbert. 625 00:30:11,668 --> 00:30:14,428 Speaker 1: I think Brady and Rogers looming is scary if you're 626 00:30:14,628 --> 00:30:16,508 Speaker 1: a Niners fan, and I know you guys own the 627 00:30:16,548 --> 00:30:19,668 Speaker 1: Packers over the years, but just the experienced level and 628 00:30:19,948 --> 00:30:22,108 Speaker 1: the disfarity, and I know people at home say, well, 629 00:30:22,148 --> 00:30:26,188 Speaker 1: quarterbacks don't play, it does matter in those big moments. 630 00:30:26,828 --> 00:30:29,868 Speaker 1: All this is a great story. Can brock Purty finish 631 00:30:29,948 --> 00:30:33,548 Speaker 1: the job. That's the only question left, because already he 632 00:30:33,588 --> 00:30:35,628 Speaker 1: has proven that he could be an NFL starting quarterback 633 00:30:35,668 --> 00:30:37,868 Speaker 1: and he's been fantastic for the forty nine ers. It's 634 00:30:37,868 --> 00:30:40,068 Speaker 1: incredible we're having this conversation on this date because you 635 00:30:40,068 --> 00:30:44,588 Speaker 1: gotta remember, so December fourth, the Niners beat the Dolphins 636 00:30:44,948 --> 00:30:47,388 Speaker 1: and Jimmy Groppolo gets hurt, and all the talk out 637 00:30:47,388 --> 00:30:49,148 Speaker 1: of that game was, wow, I can't believe the Dolphins lost. 638 00:30:49,148 --> 00:30:50,828 Speaker 1: They've had this incredible winning streak. They're the story of 639 00:30:50,828 --> 00:30:52,828 Speaker 1: the league. Now look what's happened to them. But also 640 00:30:52,988 --> 00:30:55,628 Speaker 1: that day for us was like, oh man, these forty 641 00:30:55,708 --> 00:30:57,388 Speaker 1: nine ers are just snake bit and they can't get 642 00:30:57,428 --> 00:30:59,828 Speaker 1: a break. And personally I remember being like, well, this 643 00:30:59,908 --> 00:31:02,388 Speaker 1: is a huge piece of good news for the Vikings 644 00:31:02,388 --> 00:31:04,668 Speaker 1: and for the Eagles, and all these teams are gonna 645 00:31:04,668 --> 00:31:07,028 Speaker 1: steamroll over whoever the Niners have out there that day, 646 00:31:07,308 --> 00:31:09,428 Speaker 1: even if it's brock Purty or I spent the entire 647 00:31:09,468 --> 00:31:12,708 Speaker 1: week after the injury calling him Bryce Petty. It's pretty 648 00:31:12,748 --> 00:31:14,628 Speaker 1: awesome that we're still here and we keep waiting for 649 00:31:14,668 --> 00:31:17,548 Speaker 1: that nice run kid. All these these cliches you hear 650 00:31:17,548 --> 00:31:20,028 Speaker 1: about once they get tape on you and once the 651 00:31:20,188 --> 00:31:22,548 Speaker 1: study up, Like we're past that. They've been watching this 652 00:31:22,588 --> 00:31:25,028 Speaker 1: guy for five weeks and he still looks the part. 653 00:31:25,188 --> 00:31:27,908 Speaker 1: He still looks completely poised. I'm just waiting for that 654 00:31:27,948 --> 00:31:30,828 Speaker 1: moment when he looks rattled. We've talked about this when 655 00:31:31,188 --> 00:31:33,988 Speaker 1: the defense doesn't have it that day, when Kittle can't 656 00:31:34,028 --> 00:31:37,268 Speaker 1: bail him out, and that brock Purty moment. It's I'm 657 00:31:37,308 --> 00:31:41,668 Speaker 1: still not afraid. I'm surprising even myself because I thought, nice, 658 00:31:41,708 --> 00:31:45,108 Speaker 1: cool story, mister relevant. Hahaha, he looks really good. I 659 00:31:45,148 --> 00:31:47,748 Speaker 1: still don't see with the Jalen Hurts mystery right now, 660 00:31:47,908 --> 00:31:49,508 Speaker 1: who's the team that you point to in the NFC. 661 00:31:49,548 --> 00:31:51,148 Speaker 1: They're like, oh, they can take the four to nine ers. 662 00:31:51,148 --> 00:31:53,228 Speaker 1: I don't see one. I really don't. Yeah, we keep 663 00:31:53,228 --> 00:31:55,548 Speaker 1: talking about the NFC is wide open. There's no reason 664 00:31:55,588 --> 00:31:57,668 Speaker 1: to believe San Francisco is not going to be in that. 665 00:31:58,028 --> 00:32:00,588 Speaker 1: And for me, I'm just you get so excited watching 666 00:32:00,628 --> 00:32:03,748 Speaker 1: Brock party a late round draft pick, you come in hungry, 667 00:32:03,868 --> 00:32:06,268 Speaker 1: he said. I was drafted late, and I didn't sulk 668 00:32:06,308 --> 00:32:08,308 Speaker 1: about it and worry about why I wasn't drifting. I 669 00:32:08,348 --> 00:32:10,468 Speaker 1: went back and watch my films. All Right, what can 670 00:32:10,508 --> 00:32:12,988 Speaker 1: I improve on? Because if I'm a late rounder, I'm 671 00:32:13,028 --> 00:32:15,028 Speaker 1: not really in the NFL. I have to go out 672 00:32:15,028 --> 00:32:17,628 Speaker 1: there in training camp and make the team different from 673 00:32:17,628 --> 00:32:19,668 Speaker 1: a first round and you get drafted in the first round. 674 00:32:19,788 --> 00:32:22,548 Speaker 1: We had Ryan Leafing here telling his draft story where 675 00:32:22,588 --> 00:32:25,068 Speaker 1: the Spano's family flew him on their private plane to 676 00:32:25,228 --> 00:32:28,188 Speaker 1: Vegas to San Diego. You don't get that as a 677 00:32:28,228 --> 00:32:30,508 Speaker 1: seventh round draft pick and socide all right, we're gonna 678 00:32:30,508 --> 00:32:32,868 Speaker 1: book your plane. You're probably back there and coach, you 679 00:32:32,948 --> 00:32:34,868 Speaker 1: show up for the rookie mini camp. You have to 680 00:32:34,868 --> 00:32:37,228 Speaker 1: go out and earn every single thing that you have, 681 00:32:37,428 --> 00:32:40,068 Speaker 1: and brock Purdy has done that. This year. We watching 682 00:32:40,188 --> 00:32:42,628 Speaker 1: verse the Raiders where San Francisco didn't have a great 683 00:32:42,708 --> 00:32:44,668 Speaker 1: day on defense, and he went toe to toe, he 684 00:32:44,708 --> 00:32:47,068 Speaker 1: came back, he answered the call. So I'm excited as 685 00:32:47,108 --> 00:32:49,948 Speaker 1: hell to watch Brock Purdy in the playoffs to see 686 00:32:50,108 --> 00:32:51,828 Speaker 1: and continue to see who it was going to be 687 00:32:52,028 --> 00:32:54,828 Speaker 1: the biggest difference when you go from a college player 688 00:32:54,868 --> 00:32:56,988 Speaker 1: to now NFL player. One of the biggest things is 689 00:32:56,988 --> 00:32:59,388 Speaker 1: just confidence, believing that you can go out there and 690 00:32:59,428 --> 00:33:02,068 Speaker 1: execute and get the job done. And so far, he continues, 691 00:33:02,068 --> 00:33:04,188 Speaker 1: if you see it as that wild car round, could 692 00:33:04,188 --> 00:33:06,348 Speaker 1: be Packers. Now do you see it as purty Rogers 693 00:33:06,428 --> 00:33:07,708 Speaker 1: or as a player? You don't even look at it 694 00:33:07,748 --> 00:33:10,708 Speaker 1: as a quarterback matchup? No, not a quarterback matchup. I'm 695 00:33:10,788 --> 00:33:13,188 Speaker 1: so much in on quarterbacks don't play against each other. 696 00:33:13,188 --> 00:33:15,308 Speaker 1: It's a cool story. We talked about it all the 697 00:33:15,308 --> 00:33:17,548 Speaker 1: way leading up for years, We've talked about Brady and 698 00:33:17,588 --> 00:33:20,628 Speaker 1: the age difference. All that matters is now San Francisco's 699 00:33:20,628 --> 00:33:23,028 Speaker 1: defense is getting ready for Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay's 700 00:33:23,068 --> 00:33:25,388 Speaker 1: defense is getting ready for Brock Purty. So I don't 701 00:33:25,428 --> 00:33:27,628 Speaker 1: really see it's it's from a media standpoint, it's a 702 00:33:27,668 --> 00:33:29,348 Speaker 1: lot of fun, and it's a build up from a 703 00:33:29,348 --> 00:33:32,348 Speaker 1: players standpoint for m VP's versus mister Irrelevant, you know, 704 00:33:32,428 --> 00:33:34,908 Speaker 1: like that's a fun storyline, but no doubt about it 705 00:33:35,188 --> 00:33:38,148 Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, it's experience. We're in the game now, 706 00:33:38,308 --> 00:33:40,388 Speaker 1: whether your experience or not. How are you performing on 707 00:33:40,388 --> 00:33:44,428 Speaker 1: this Saturday or Sunday. I'm a big fan of anonymity, 708 00:33:44,508 --> 00:33:46,228 Speaker 1: which I know this is a weird thing to say 709 00:33:46,228 --> 00:33:48,468 Speaker 1: about one of the thirty two quarterbacks in the NFL, 710 00:33:48,548 --> 00:33:50,308 Speaker 1: but I kind of love that. This is the first 711 00:33:50,308 --> 00:33:53,188 Speaker 1: brock Purty sound we have you since he started in 712 00:33:53,188 --> 00:33:56,188 Speaker 1: a month. He's just and this is the this is 713 00:33:56,188 --> 00:33:59,108 Speaker 1: a compliment. He's just there and I like it. And 714 00:33:59,268 --> 00:34:01,948 Speaker 1: what we just heard from him is exactly that is. 715 00:34:02,148 --> 00:34:04,908 Speaker 1: He went about his business as a as a late 716 00:34:05,068 --> 00:34:08,028 Speaker 1: draft pick, and he worked and he got better and 717 00:34:08,108 --> 00:34:10,788 Speaker 1: he didn't use it as a woe is me. I 718 00:34:10,828 --> 00:34:13,588 Speaker 1: can't believe they let me slide all this way. No, 719 00:34:14,068 --> 00:34:16,988 Speaker 1: he got better. Behind really good quarterbacks on a really 720 00:34:17,028 --> 00:34:19,348 Speaker 1: good team, and now we's here and he's not talking 721 00:34:19,388 --> 00:34:22,468 Speaker 1: about it. The young man has posted three Instagram pictures 722 00:34:22,628 --> 00:34:26,068 Speaker 1: since last January, since last January when he decided I'm 723 00:34:26,108 --> 00:34:28,668 Speaker 1: gonna declare for the NFL Draft, I'm gonna get drafted, 724 00:34:29,188 --> 00:34:31,908 Speaker 1: and they were only from recent history. I think one 725 00:34:31,988 --> 00:34:33,748 Speaker 1: was from training camp and two of Ben. Since he 726 00:34:33,788 --> 00:34:37,308 Speaker 1: has started, he's just working. He's not talking about it 727 00:34:37,508 --> 00:34:39,388 Speaker 1: his teammate and this might be a nature of the 728 00:34:39,388 --> 00:34:41,708 Speaker 1: market that he's in. But I love that we don't 729 00:34:41,708 --> 00:34:44,348 Speaker 1: hear from him. I just I love it. His coach speaks, 730 00:34:44,948 --> 00:34:48,188 Speaker 1: his defense speaks for itself. The veteran players, George Kittle's 731 00:34:48,188 --> 00:34:51,428 Speaker 1: out there, fine rock party, keep winning and just let 732 00:34:51,468 --> 00:34:54,908 Speaker 1: your January speak for itself. They we need more parties already. 733 00:34:54,908 --> 00:34:57,268 Speaker 1: Don't get the marketing dollars party. You're balling. It's right 734 00:34:57,788 --> 00:35:02,468 Speaker 1: Instagram first, that money, the money will go on a kid. 735 00:35:02,788 --> 00:35:06,628 Speaker 1: Now he's California, He's got that whole market. Arizona super Bowl, 736 00:35:07,148 --> 00:35:11,748 Speaker 1: Stay away from the cryptom
