I saw this tweet. 6 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: The dude is a flat out winner. Twenty three seasons 7 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: as a head coach, sixteen ten plus win seasons, thirteen 8 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: trips to the second round of the playoffs, eight trips 9 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: to the conference title game, three Super Bowls, one super 10 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: Bowl win fifth all time and wins fourth all time 11 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: and playoff wins. Andy Reid, a million different quarterbacks, tons 12 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: of different star players in different assistant coach. That guy 13 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: is a certified ass kicker on the sideline. Congrats coach 14 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: Read you probably I mean the Packers Niners. But I 15 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: think the game of the weekend is is Bills Bills 16 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: at the Chiefs. That is a football game. Honestly, it 17 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: might be for the super Bowl. I mean, that might 18 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,479 Speaker 1: be the Super Bowl right there. I know Brady might 19 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: have something to say with it, Aaron Rodgers might have 20 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: say something to say with it. But Andy Reid certified 21 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: winner God Chiefs Bills signed me up. Can't wait Sunday afternoon. 22 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: I'm there.

We didn't skip any 31 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: shows beside the Golf Podcast, which is a new show. 32 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: But now we're rocking and rolling and uh, a lot 33 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: happened this weekend. Let's start with our boy Mike McCarthy. 34 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: And if you're going to go in on Mike McCarthy, 35 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: which I said coming into the game, he was a 36 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: home favorite. He won twelve games. And I had a 37 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: lot of people, a lot of you guys shoot me 38 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: d m s like Middle cooffe're overhyping the Cowboys. And 39 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: I came away from day maybe I thought it was 40 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: maybe you guys were right, Maybe I was too bullish 41 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: on them. Obviously, they have a lot of talent. The 42 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: man on the moon can see that. But there is something, 43 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: there's a softness with Mike McCarthy. It was like that 44 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: in Green Bay, and it's like that on this team now, 45 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: unlike some of the Green Bay teams where he was 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: the offensive play caller. I think we need to dive 47 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: into the Cowboys and their assistant coaches. They obviously have 48 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: two coordinators who are dan Quinn's gonna be the X 49 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: head coach of the Broncos. Let's start with him. Nice guy. 50 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: I've I met a briefly one time at the combine, 51 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: don't know him. Everyone that knows him swears by the guy. 52 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: But think about this, dan Quinn is gonna be becoming 53 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: the head coach of the Broncos because his buddy is 54 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: the general manager, and everyone thinks highly of General Patton. 55 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: But if General Patton did not know dan Quinn from 56 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: their time with the Miami Dolphins and No. Five, dan 57 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: Quinn would not be a head coach because let's remember 58 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: for years with Atlanta, we all watched and we can 59 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: go how is their defense so terrible? Is it? Dan 60 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: Quinn a defensive guy? Didn't he tutor under and and 61 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: was a protege of Pete. Carroll doesn't need no defense, 62 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: and his defenses were consistently trash. They were awful. The 63 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: couple of years they had success, it was because of 64 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: the offense. Kyle had the big offensive year. They go 65 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. Then the following year they hire 66 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: Sark and they're good on offense again. The whole time 67 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: their defense was atrocious. And now he comes with the 68 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: Cowboy It's pretty I mean, good season. But they have 69 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: some great pass rushers and we saw today mismatch Kyle 70 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: Shanahan vers Dan Quinn advantage Kyle Shanahan, and this guy 71 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: is just immediately went from being a bum to a 72 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: head coach overnight. Like I'm sorry, Denver Bronco fans, I 73 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: don't know if I'd be that excited because I don't 74 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: think this guy is some schematic genius. I actually think 75 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: the Cowboys because Jerry Jones said after the game, Mike 76 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: McCarthy is going nowhere. Jerry Jones, if you want to 77 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: say anything about him, beside he's really rich, he's also 78 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: pretty loyal. He stands by his guys. Mike McCarthy is 79 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: gonna stay. They're gonna have a chance, whether it's big 80 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: Fangio Mike Zimmer who's coached there before. I actually think 81 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 1: they can upgrade at defense because I I just I 82 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: do think there's a softness to the team, and maybe 83 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: it starts with the head guy. But we also know 84 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: that Mike has nothing to do with offense. Now. I 85 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: came up, my football career started in the Western Athletic Conference, 86 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: also known as the Whack and the blue chip program. 87 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: When I went to Fresno State was the Boise State 88 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: Broncos the turf and Kellen Moore was their star quarterback. 89 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: And to this day, I would say the best football 90 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: players I've ever seen live in college by far are 91 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: Reggie Bush and Kellen Moore. I have I love Chris Peterson. 92 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: He's a U. C. Davis guy. I'm born and raising 93 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: Davis and growing up block Mike Blodie, Dan Hawkins, they 94 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,239 Speaker 1: had all this kind of this Davis crew. My dad's 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: a U. C. Davis alum, and they're very highly thought of. 96 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: I I love Chris Peterson. He's been very good to 97 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: me when I've I've been around him. I have a 98 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: huge fan of that program in Kellen Moore. I respect 99 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore. I actually sometimes I think go over the 100 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: top to like push back against people that talk about 101 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore. But in what world if you watch the 102 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys the second half of the season or today, would 103 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: you go, oh, yeah, Kellen Moore is a lock to 104 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,239 Speaker 1: be a head coach and definitely a good head coach. Now, 105 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore's dad was a star head coach in high 106 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,119 Speaker 1: school in the in the state of Washington. Then Kellen 107 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: Moore understudied as the quarterback for Chris Peterson. Besides, like 108 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: Sabin have been in like Dabbo the best college one 109 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: of the best college football coaches the last decade, and 110 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: he's learned from him, and obviously he's a solid coach. 111 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: But I think we need to pump the brakes a 112 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: little bit on the Kellen Moore hype trade. Now, if 113 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: I was defending Kellen Moore, I would say this, are 114 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: we sure Dak Prescott is that good? Like he's not bad, 115 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: but is he that good? Because in no world, and 116 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: I said this the moment he signed the contract, He's 117 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: not a forty million dollar player. He's just not like, 118 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: I know what a forty million dollar player looks like, 119 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: looks like Patrick Mahomes. It looks like Aaron Rodgers, it 120 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: looks like Tom Brady, even though he only takes four 121 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: million dollars. It is not Dak Prescott. For a big 122 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: athletic guy, he does not have a great arm. I 123 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: say this all the time. We'll get into Jalen Hurts 124 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: in a second. For these explosive athletes, it's weird watching 125 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 1: these guys with average arms. And Dak Prescott's arm is 126 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: average at best, and today he's skipping balls. He made 127 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: one really good throw to a Mary Cooper. But for 128 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: the most part the forty Niners and Jimmy Ward said 129 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: it after the game, our game plan, and I've heard 130 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: cowards say this over the years. Dak Prescott is really good. 131 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: When they could run the ball, well, today they couldn't 132 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: run the ball. Now granted they were behind, they just 133 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: threw the ball. They operated like a spread offense four 134 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: or five wine and let Dak chuck it around. He 135 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: was He didn't in the eye test, he was not 136 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: very accurate. He skipped balls, he was off. It's not 137 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: like on the movie's that great of a playmaker. So again, 138 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: I'm not anti Dak Prescott, but he's overpaid and in 139 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: a salary cap league, when you overpay a guy by 140 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: ten twelve million dollars, it limits your team and their 141 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: team's talented. But in the wide receiver is not an issue. 142 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: They got a Mark Cooper, they got Seedee Lamb Wilson 143 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: can play both, their tight ends, can catch, their running 144 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: backs and catch, and Dak was averages a day as 145 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: long now we can crush Kellen Moore for throwing it, 146 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: you know, forty whatever times. But you know, I think 147 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: both of them are just a little overhyped. Kellen Moore overhyped. 148 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he should be a head coach. Dak 149 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: Prescott making too much money? Like what Deak Prescott I don't. 150 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say he got outplayed by Jimmy Garoppola. But 151 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: what the hell is the difference? I mean, I don't 152 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: think there's that big of a difference between the two guys. 153 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott is not in the crew of guys where 154 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: you feel good paying max money, And when you pay 155 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: max money for a non max player in a salary 156 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: cap league, you find yourself having problems. Cowboys are soft, 157 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: their coordinators got out coached, and their most expensive player 158 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: was below average. Today equals first round loss, Go home, 159 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: see you talk to you next year. Let's talk about 160 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: the other team from the NFC's Tampa. I mean, how 161 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: is Tom Brady the first like several drives, this gape. 162 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: It's like, how is this guy this good? At forty 163 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 1: four years old? At a buddy on the Eagles scout, 164 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: he was like, what Tom just retire? It's I'm watching him, 165 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: Like God, this guy ever gonna go away? How does 166 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 1: he throw the ball so well? It's multiple drive to 167 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: start the games? Like fourteen nothings Like this guy even 168 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: break a sweat is just the avocado ice cream and 169 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: the pliability stretches. How does this guy do it? But 170 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: the main issue in the game was the Eagles had 171 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: no chance of their quarterback like Dak Prescott. Like I 172 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: said about Jalen for this athletic, explosive guy, his arm 173 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: strength sucks. He cannot make basic passes, basic out routes. 174 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: He skips the ball. Now, was I too harsh when 175 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: I called him a running back coming out of college? Yes, 176 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: but I've kind of gone the other way and I 177 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: saw to day I'm like, what middlecoff, stand by what 178 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: you believe? I do not think he's that good. I 179 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: was not a fan out of college. I'm not really 180 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: a fan now. And it's on the most basic level 181 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: of the sport of football in big games, and the 182 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Eagles were somewhat able to avoid it down the stretch 183 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: because they played such shitty opponents. But when you play 184 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: really good teams, especially in the playoffs, you're gonna be 185 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: putting situations of second and eight, third and nine. Well, 186 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: what happens on those downs? You can't run it. You 187 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: have to throw it balls down the seam, deep out routes, 188 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: whatever concepts your coaches are dialing up, and simply put, 189 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: Jalen cannot complete those balls, and for the most parties 190 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: way off. So luckily the Eagles made some good maneuver maneuvering, 191 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: and they have three first round picks. I think it's 192 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: like eighteen, nineteen, and twenty two or something. They're not 193 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: great picks, but you have three of them. I would 194 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: be in the market for de Shaun Watson. To me, 195 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: that would be the quarterback I would go after, and 196 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: I honestly think I would. I wonder start to finish, 197 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: would they be better off with Gardner Minshew If you 198 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: can't get Watson you know, we'll see. We'll talk about 199 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: Russell probably on the next podcast. I can't don't even 200 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: have the energy to get into Russell doing one of 201 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: his little leaks, like, you know, I don't want to leave, 202 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: but if I did, I'll be interested in exploring yours. Russell, 203 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 1: just have the balls to come out and say you 204 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: want to leave. Either say it or don't. Just stop, 205 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: you know, hanging out on the fence. Pick a fucking lane, bro, 206 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: But if you can get still go after Russell. I 207 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: would go heavily after de Sean. If you can't get 208 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: those guys, I would have an open quarterback competition, and 209 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: I I wonder if they would be better off with 210 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew, but at least have a competition, because I 211 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: thought there were times a day when you should let 212 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: him in. Now I also realized, like, really, you're gonna 213 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: get a look at this guy, and now he has 214 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: no beef if he's not the starting quarterback next year, 215 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: because you you can't games like that. I mean, come on, man, 216 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: this this is the playoffs. This is in Tampa. Actually, 217 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: after the first couple of drives, it's not I guess 218 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: it never feels like a game.

Let's talk about 246 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: Saturday Night and I think one of the coolest parts 247 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 1: as a football fan and just a fan of sports 248 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: is it went away in two thousand twenty and we 249 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: were just so happy to have games back on TV 250 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: after that couple of months, you know, hiatus. But we 251 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: didn't really have fans in a lot of events, right. 252 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: Golf came back first, no fans, Then baseball came back 253 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: no fans. That was terrible. The basketball bubble was a joke. 254 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: I mean clearly, I mean that wasn't even the sports 255 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: as we've seen. I'm sorry Laker fans like, that's that's 256 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: a joke. Title football. No fans in the stands there 257 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: are in college football. It's very special to have fans, 258 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: no matter if you're at Iowa, Michigan or Fresno State 259 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: or USC what it really matters in college football. There 260 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: are specific teams in the pros where it feels collegiate, 261 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: and I think clearly the Buffalo Bills are one of those, right. 262 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: Kansas City and Arrowhead and Buffalo are just special environments 263 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: and just watching that environment for their first true home 264 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: playoff game and whatever. Twenty five years Jill Kelly, Jim's daughter, 265 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: had tweeted out this picture I follower on social media 266 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: of that whole crew, you know, Tasker, Jim, Bruce Smith, 267 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: Thurman Thomas, all these other guys at dinner. Eric Wood 268 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: was there too, just all had cocktails at a steakhouse 269 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: and it was like, you know, this means something. This 270 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: is for a small town. This is badass. But to me, 271 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: the coolest part the Bills deserve a ton of credit. 272 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: And I can't hammer this home enough. I thought, and listen. 273 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: I like Sean McDermott, big fan, worked with him for 274 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: a year. One of the most disciplined human beings I've 275 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: ever been around. I root for Sean McDermott to have success, 276 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: but him and Brandon Bean when they made the decision 277 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: to draft Josh Allen at number seven. Overall me personally, 278 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: I thought they were insane. My friends in the NFL, 279 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: every single guy except one didn't like him. I couldn't 280 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: find people around the NFL that didn't like him, and 281 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: my one body that liked him. And this guy his 282 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: team still playing. He's you know, I don't see his 283 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: name yet in the mix. He is going to be 284 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: a general manager one day. I would put that bad 285 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: boy in stone uh and a good one too well. 286 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: He liked him in his building, and his boss at 287 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: the time, his GM thought he was crazy. The entire 288 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: building didn't like him. Nobody liked Josh Allen. There was 289 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: a small percentage of people. The media all hated him, 290 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: and rightfully so. He was inaccurate. I remember specifically taking 291 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: time out of my day to watch Wyoming games that fall. 292 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: Remember they played Oregon. They had another Division One opponent 293 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: that he was just terrible. Maybe it was Nevada. He 294 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: was so inaccurate. He was so bad, and I want 295 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: to like him. He's from the Valleys from Fireball. My 296 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: dad I used to farm there, I root for people 297 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: from California just naturally, especially kids from the valley. And 298 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: I thought he was terrible, and everyone I knew thought 299 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: he was terrible, and even early on he was pretty 300 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: terrible with the Bills. But what that guy And here's 301 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: what I know about Jean McDermott. He values character like 302 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: football character and just drive and determination, and clearly this 303 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: guy hasn't and he's gotten better and better and better. Now. 304 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: One thing you could never deny with Josh Allen were 305 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: elite physical attributes. If he was a basketball player, he 306 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: would have been like, uh, you know, a raw Shaquille O'Neal, like, 307 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: you just don't build these guys six ft five two 308 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: thirty five pounds, can run and has the strongest arm 309 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: in the league. Now, he didn't know where the ball 310 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: was going, but the raw tools were freakish. I see 311 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: what the Golden State Warriors they drafted this guy named 312 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: Jonathan cominga number seven overall. Dude is a freak show, 313 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: absolute freak. Doesn't quite know what he's doing yet, even 314 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: though he had twenty points the other night. But he's 315 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: just that's what you want to draft now. Ultimately, it's 316 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: on the coaching staff it's on the player to get 317 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: better and better. What I witnessed Saturday night, I've watched 318 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: in this Montana documentary. So I've stumbled into some uh 319 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: rabbit holes of watching some Dan Marino YouTube's and John 320 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: Elway YouTube's. That's what this guy is that that with 321 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: what we win this the box score does not do 322 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: what we went the cold, the frigid throwing those babies 323 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: and those dimes and those frozen ropes. This guy's ceiling 324 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: is Hall of fame. This guy clearly has changed the 325 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: Bills franchise forever. Now they gotta go and play the 326 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: Chiefs and the homes slay the dragon. I get it. 327 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: But to win that game at home against New England, 328 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: a coach who's gonna go down as the greatest coach 329 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: of all time, who had a great bounce back season, 330 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: won ten games with a rookie quarterback, doesn't have a 331 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: great arm. They do not have that much skill. I said, Buddy, 332 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: And a guy in the league texting me, he's like, 333 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: I got news for you. New England over achieved this year. 334 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, they really did. To beat the ship 335 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,719 Speaker 1: out of the Bill Belichick like that, and basically, you know, 336 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: this is for the last twenty years of kicking our ass. 337 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: We're gonna just be relentless on you tonight. And it 338 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: all started with number seventeen. That's as good of a 339 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: performance as you've ever seen from a quarterback. That's quarterback mastery. 340 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: And I the defense was off whatever that that's been 341 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: one of the better defenses all season long. And Josh 342 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: Allen made them look like the Jacks, you know, made 343 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 1: them look like, you know, the Atlanta Falcons. He clowned them. 344 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: It was really cool to watch a player come as 345 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: far as he's come. And again, I gotta give so 346 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: much credit to the organization for having this big picture 347 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: of you developing this kid. Obviously they paid him this 348 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 1: year and he just keeps on getting better. And that 349 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 1: that was a as just a sappy sports fan that 350 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: that was a cool moment. Saturday night, I watched the 351 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: whole old thing. And I'm not one to watch blowouts, 352 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: you know, on a weekend night, like I'll just turn 353 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 1: on the other chance. Obviously, we we only have so 354 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: many games left, But I think a huge reason was 355 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: the fans and watching seventeen just play the game of 356 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: his life. But but when you watch him, you thought, 357 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: this is pretty repeatable, Like physically he's so fast, his 358 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: arm so strong, he throws these ropes and these lasers. 359 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: What a badass? What what a cool night for just 360 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: Bills Mafia. And then, last but not least, Josh Allen 361 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: took time. Right. It did not happen overnight. It really 362 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: didn't even happen the first couple of years. He came 363 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 1: into his own his third year, some guys come in 364 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: and are just ready to roll. Are just from day one. 365 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: You're like, this guy is on a different level, and 366 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: it's rare than it happens at quarterback. Right, Most quarterbacks 367 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: in recent memory to get drafted really high, just need 368 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: a little time, right. Even Patrick Mahomes didn't play for 369 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 1: a season, even though his first year starting he was awesome. 370 00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: Herbert kind of hit the ground running, but his team 371 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: hasn't any success. Lamar was pretty remarkable right off the bat. 372 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: But when Joe Burrow went number one, like, let's face it, 373 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: we've all, if you're my age in your mid thirties, 374 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 1: we've been watching we've watched college football for a long 375 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: period of time. That nineteen l s U team is 376 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: we might never see anything quite like that again. Especially offensively, 377 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 1: and you're just thinking, like, is this guy really this 378 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: good or you know, and then Jefferson has a great 379 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: rookie year. Obviously bro gets hurt, and then Chase is 380 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 1: coming in You're like, you know, is he is he 381 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: really this good? It's like, yeah, he's actually better than advertised. 382 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: He's changed a franchise. But unlike the Bills, like they 383 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: had Sean McDermott, he had made the playoffs before Mahomes 384 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: like Andy Reid had been going to the playoffs all 385 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 1: the time. This guy came into the Cincinnati Bengals not 386 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: only just kind of a clown operation since Marvin had left, 387 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: but they're known as cheap. They hired this guy named 388 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor that no one had even heard of, and 389 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: then he gets injured. Even though in that, you know, 390 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: the brief time before we got injured, the team was 391 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: so bad it was clear if you just been watching football, 392 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: you're like, this guy can play, this guy can play. 393 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: Then he pounds the table to his organization and says, 394 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: I want Jamaar Chase. But you know sometimes players college 395 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: teammate they had won a national championship. I understand it. 396 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: He said it because he knew the dude could ball, 397 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: and then he gets Jamar Chase and they win the 398 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: a f C North, a division that had arguably the 399 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: best roster in football. The Browns, the Ravens who just 400 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: make the playoffs every year and have Lamar Jackson, and 401 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: the Steelers that are just the fucking Steelers. They never lose. 402 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 1: Now they may not win that mini games lately, but 403 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: they never go into He wins the division and you 404 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: watch him the other night and you just go, you know, 405 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: I would probably like, I'm a sucker for bigger arms, 406 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: so you know, mahomes Alan, But like I do understand 407 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: people are like, I'd rather have Borrow than Herbert. Look, 408 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: I get it, he's got some in the analytic people 409 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: hate this, Like what does even it mean? I don't know, 410 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: watch fucking football. It's pretty easy a spot because it's 411 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: pretty rarey and Joe Burrow has it. That guy changed 412 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. And I can't recommend this enough. If 413 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: you have peacock. Joe Montana documentary is unreal. And Bill 414 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: Walsh if he he wouldn't have been a star if 415 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: he didn't get his quarterback and he drafted Montana and 416 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: Montana changed his career and you're watching this and you 417 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: go listen. And I grew up in northern California. My 418 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 1: dad is the biggest to his dying days, was as 419 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 1: big as a Joe Montana fan, just probably like most 420 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: people around this area that are over sixty you'll ever meet, 421 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: because they go, I know what I watched and what 422 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: I watched. The dude was just on a different level. 423 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm watching this documentary, I go, I underrated Joe Montana. 424 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 1: Now I still would give Brady the nod, but I 425 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: get it like Joe Montana was a certified killer. He 426 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: actually wasn't Notre Dame. The irony of Montana story was 427 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: like very very difficult for him to get on the 428 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: field at Notre Dame. And I think sometimes like Tom Brady, 429 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: it was hard for Tom Brady to get on the 430 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: field at Michigan, and even obviously when he first got drafted, 431 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: he was a fourth string quarterback. To me, there's something 432 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: to the grit and some of these guys like Joe 433 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: Burrow was told by urban Meyer, We're gonna start Dwayne 434 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: Haskins over you. I think, how well that's aged. And 435 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: then he goes to l s U and they weren't 436 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: even good as first year there and the second year 437 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: the rest is history. And then he goes to the Bengals, 438 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: Like ultimately, Patrick Mahomes got to go to Andy Reid, 439 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen got to go to Sean McDermott. This guy 440 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: went to Zach Taylor. Most people that you guys couldn't 441 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: point him out of a lineup. I'm not even sure 442 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: he's that great of a coach. But I know Joe 443 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: Burrow if he stays healthy, like this guy is gonna 444 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: be the top one of the top quarterbacks in the 445 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: league for the next decade. He's fucking awesome. He is, 446 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Mahomes. The league is in such 447 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: a great place with some of these young quarterbacks, the swag, 448 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: but also just how cool they are and just normal 449 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: they are. They give off these vibes of like baby, 450 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,479 Speaker 1: easy to have a beer with. And I give Joe 451 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: Burrow credit. He kind of went ron Wolf called his shot, 452 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: told him to draft Jamar Chase, and let's face it, 453 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: a big reason, Like obviously Joe gets all this credit, 454 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: but without Jamaar Chase, who knows if they're in this 455 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: position now, they're in the second round playing the Tennessee Titans. 456 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: Titans are good, you know, they find ways to win, 457 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: but I think this is a winnable game for the Bengals. 458 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: We'll get into the matchups a little more on Tuesday's podcast, 459 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: but what a fun weekend to watch stars Deebo, Samuel, 460 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, Josh Allen. That's what the playoffs are. Four man. 461 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: I saw Kyle Shanahan and his press conference say it. Well, 462 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: he's like, I try to tell these guys he went 463 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: back and watched like the ninety four NFC Championship game. 464 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: He's like, these your guys. Players become heroes of young 465 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: kids like Michael Jordan became a big deal because of 466 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: what he did in the playoffs, Like when I was 467 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: a kid. When I think Aikman, young Farv, it's the 468 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: enormous games in January. This is when you become a legend. 469 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: That Tom Brady became a legend with all the playoff victories. 470 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: Obviously the regular season matters, but if the regular season 471 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: meant that much, we would act like James Harden's the 472 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: top ten player. Ever, only Darryl Morey says that not 473 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: a human alive think most of us think James Harden 474 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: is the most overrated player going because when when it matters, 475 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: like Tiger Woods is a legend because he won whatever, 476 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: fifteen majors, he won ninety tournaments or whatever. But it's 477 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: all about the majors. It's all about the playoffs. What 478 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: do you do in January? That's what matters. That's why 479 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: there's so much pressure on Aaron Rodgers. Like, Bro, you 480 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: got to get to another super Bowl. I said this 481 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: forever about Peyton Manning. He was too good of a 482 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: quarterback to only have one super Bowl, even the last year, 483 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: where it's like, let's face it, he was kind of 484 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: running on fumes. He deserved to retire a multi super 485 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: Bowl guy. Aaron Rodgers one of the best athletes any 486 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: sport I've ever seen. If his see if his career 487 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: ends with only one super Bowl, it'll feel like a letdown, 488 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: like this should be his year. But am I that confident? 489 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, but he should. He should 490 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,679 Speaker 1: end this season with a super Bowl victory. Sure we'll 491 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 1: get into that as a as a week goes on. 492 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: But what a week. God? I love football.
