WEBVTT - 05/06/21 DPS Hour 3 Pierre McGuire 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:06.520 Sports Radio Final Hour on this Thursday, Dan and The 0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:09.440 Dan's Stan Patrick Show. If you missed the conversation with 0:00:09.480 --> 0:00:12.520 Adam Schefter, I encourage you to go to Dan Patrick 0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:16.280 dot com. Had a spirited back and forth why that 0:00:16.320 --> 0:00:20.800 information came out on Draft Day. I thought something was imminent. 0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:24.799 I thought it was here's the information, and Adam said, 0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:28.560 according to league sources, team sources, it was an accumulation 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:33.879 of information. But still didn't find out exactly why he 0:00:34.000 --> 0:00:36.879 dropped the information on Draft Day. And I don't know 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:39.240 where we are right now with Aaron Rodgers because Aaron's 0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:42.280 not talking. Packers still try to want to keep him 0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:45.960 in the building, but I think we're pretty far down 0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:47.920 the road. And I think at the beginning of June 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:52.960 that's when that cap hit is not as penetrating, and 0:00:53.040 --> 0:00:55.960 that's when it looks like he would be at least 0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:58.880 on the trading block. Until then, you're not going to 0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:02.440 trade him. You're probably receiving phone calls here. I'm going 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:05.959 to imagine if I'm the Broncos, I'm calling. If I'm 0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:08.520 the Raiders, I guess I'm calling. If I'm the Saint. 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:10.600 I mean, there's a lot of teams that if you go, hey, 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.800 is Aaron Rodgers in play? And if he is, what's 0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:17.880 it going to cost? Is it a similar situation to 0:01:18.000 --> 0:01:21.760 what the Rams did with Jared Goff and Matthew Stafford. 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:28.440 Well it's not the same because Detroit basically said to 0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:31.399 Matthew Stafford and vice versa, Hey, let's give you a 0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:34.199 nice landing spot here, thank you for everything you've done. 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:38.600 We're moving in a different direction. New coach in here. GM, 0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:41.760 We're going to go in our direction. We appreciate everything 0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:44.520 you've done, no hard feelings. Thank you for everything you've 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.160 meant to this organization. They got a great landing spot 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:50.880 with the Rams. You get Jared Goff in return, and 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:54.560 you get draft picks in return. Is that something that 0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:59.600 Green Bay would entertain? And there's so many people giving 0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:02.280 so many opinions on this, and right now it's opinions 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:06.200 because until Aaron Rodgers comes out and says, hey, this 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.840 is how I feel, this is what I want to 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.280 have done, he doesn't have to go into gory details 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:15.000 about his relationship or lack thereof with the GM. He's 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:19.600 told us about the Jordan Love situation, how he reacted, 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:24.080 how he found out. Okay, you cut his good friend 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:27.200 Jake Kumereau, who is a wide receiver who two days 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.880 earlier you talked about him on a national radio show 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:33.359 and then they cut him. Okay, like this a business. 0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:38.440 And green Bay they handled this like it's a business. 0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:42.800 They drafted Jordan Love. Now should they Well we can 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.600 look back and say no, but they green Bay was 0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:48.440 betting that Aaron Rodgers was not going to be great. 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:52.600 And when the MVP this past year, Now, what do 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:55.360 you do with Jordan Love? He's not ready to play? 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:58.600 Can you wait another year? Can you have this continue 0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:02.200 in the organization? Do you want a lame duck Aaron 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:06.720 Rodgers quarterbacking your team? Well? I would because it gives 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:08.760 us the best chance of winning. But I also have 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.520 to look at at what point do I decide to 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:14.920 trade Aaron Rodgers and what can I get in return? 0:03:15.840 --> 0:03:18.480 But you can go back to Dan Patrick dot com. 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:21.399 I go to the website and hear all of our interviews. 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:25.760 Pierre McGuire NHL and NBC, the Great Hockey Analyst. He 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:29.640 was there at the garden last night up front and 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.600 they had a personal, very very close to the action 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.400 there as they dropped the gloves from the opening face off. 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.280 He'll join us coming up, yes point, going back to 0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:39.600 Adam Schefter. We're having a discussion the break about why 0:03:39.680 --> 0:03:42.840 Adam Schefter put this information out there, this report out 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.760 there three o'clock on Draft Day, and when we were 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:48.160 doing the show last week, last Thursday, at almost exactly 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:50.880 this time, a local radio host named Bill Michaels, He's 0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:55.360 out of Wisconsin. He posted that the forty nine ers 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:57.560 have offered the Packers the third overall overall pick and 0:03:57.640 --> 0:04:01.440 other picks for Aaron Rodgers, and he credited Paul Allen, 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.120 who's played by play guy in Minnesota, we all know 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.520 does the Vikings and has a radio show there. So 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:09.720 that's what the only inklings we got that draft morning 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:12.240 that anything was going on, and we here didn't know 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:15.000 much about those reports. Okay, but I want to understand 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.200 when Paul Allen, Paul Allen is a great radio host 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:21.040 in Minneapolis and also is the voice of the Vikings, 0:04:21.440 --> 0:04:25.440 did he put it out on Thursday? Because I thought 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:28.599 that Paul Allen put the report out on Friday that 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.279 the Niners did reach out to the Green Bay Packers, 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.719 did Bill Michaels put this out or did Paul Allen 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:36.960 put this out? Bill Michaels put it out based off 0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:38.680 you know, he said other people have been talking about it. 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:40.560 He said, Paul Allen spoke about it on his radio 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:44.280 show on Thursday pre draft. Okay, So but again that 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:46.680 sometimes doesn't get to the national media or into the 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:51.040 national audience. Yeah, And Adam Schefter did talk about this 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.080 was sort of an open secret that the Rams reached out, 0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:57.960 the Niners reached out, teams understood that Aaron did not 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.640 you know, he may not want to come back, or 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:05.320 voicing you know, discontent in the organization there. But when 0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:08.200 I saw and I saw this live, when Adam did 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:12.080 this on NFL Live, and I'm going, is Aaron Rodgers 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:16.120 going to be traded? Like? Like? It felt like that. 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:19.599 And then I thought it was Rogers because he was 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:23.360 Draft Day and look a lot of other people did. 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:27.960 But you know, I thought, maybe this is Aaron Rodgers 0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:31.320 saying through somebody to Adam Schefter, Hey, I don't want 0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:35.160 to be here, but I wanted to know what, you know, 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:39.640 why was it leaked? Why was it dropped on Draft Day? 0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:41.560 That's what I was trying to figure. I'm still trying 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:45.680 to figure that out because nothing really happened here other 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:48.240 than did Adam think somebody else was going to have 0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:53.800 this story? Yeah. Also, the John Lynch, the GM of 0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:56.440 the forty nine ers, admitted in his post draft comments 0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.280 kind of late night on Thursday that so he was asked, 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.040 did you call the packers? He was, yeah, I called you. 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.040 We played that sound before. He admitted that he called 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:05.640 the packers and it was a short conversation about Aaron Rodgers. 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.480 So that story is confirmed. So it's true the Niners 0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:12.240 did at least place they called, and I'm gonna guess 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:15.120 they said, hey, you know, I got an offer here 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:19.240 for you? Or was it hey, it's John Lynch Brian. Yeah, 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:24.480 I'm not interested by But what information did the Niners 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:30.440 have that they would have made the call? This feels 0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:33.240 like a thirty for thirty, Like it just feels like 0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:36.680 there's and we're not even done. We're halfway through this. 0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:40.880 Who knows how the thirty for thirty ends up. Yeah. Mclovin. Yeah, 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:42.560 but you know, I hate to put on you, but 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:44.440 you kept saying there was something fishy going on in 0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:46.679 Green Bay. So that's why now it's easy to believe 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.400 that Scheffer's report is true. Well, that was six weeks ago, right, 0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:52.200 You said he wouldn't be back after next year. I 0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:55.159 was told it's laughable to think that Rogers will be 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:57.960 back after this season coming up, Which makes me think 0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:00.560 that a lot of people knew that the situation was untenable, 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:09.400 but that happened quickly. The Vikings radio announcer McLevin just 0:07:09.440 --> 0:07:13.000 sent this to me, Paul Allen claimed on his radio 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:17.120 show Thursday Morning. So a week ago today, the Packers 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:20.440 turned down a massive trade offer for Aaron Rodgers from 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:27.160 the San Francisco forty nine ers. He said that the 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:32.920 Niners made the call Wednesday night and they were going 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:36.960 to give the third overall pick and Garoppolo, but the 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:42.440 Packers turned it down. Paul Allish had it tweeted that 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:53.960 out moments after. Yes, yes he should have. Okay, well 0:07:53.960 --> 0:08:01.000 it makes sense, But I I want to be fair 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.560 to Aaron Rodgers through all of this, because I will 0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:06.760 say this, a lot of the reporters are going to 0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:12.400 side with the Packers. Why because Aaron Rodgers is only 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:14.800 going to play football a few more years. The Packers 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:18.760 are going to be around a long time. You want access, 0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:24.040 and I haven't heard anybody reporting something that puts Aaron 0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:27.520 Rodgers in a more favorable light. It's that the Packers 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.600 are placed in a more favorable light. Most of the 0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:33.640 reporting has been that way, So I just want to 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:36.839 be fair to Rogers. Does he want out? When did 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:40.400 he say wanted out? Did the Niners place an offer? 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:44.760 Why was this dropped on Draft Day? And nothing happened 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:51.040 during the draft at all? So I got more questions 0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:53.840 than I do answers here. But I appreciate Adam coming 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:58.120 on because I just wanted it cleared up well, and 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:01.280 he said, look, it wasn't Aaron and it wasn't the team. 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:07.600 But his initial tweet says league sources teams source, Well, 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:13.360 which team? I'm assuming that's Green Bay. League source could 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:17.920 be other teams, could be the Rams, could be the Niners. 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:22.480 But team source. That's where I have to think the 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:31.000 Packers are somehow involved in this, at least behind the scenes. Yeah. Mclo. Also, 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:36.080 then after schefter, Pro Football Talk reported that Aaron Rodgers 0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:38.560 was disappointed that they turned down the trade offer. That 0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:41.679 was another detail that came out quickly, which, by the way, 0:09:41.840 --> 0:09:44.600 also makes perfect sense because he would be amazing in sanforature. 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.000 Oh yeah, be able to go back home and that 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:51.440 can you imagine that team with Aaron Rodgers, crazy great, 0:09:52.440 --> 0:09:55.080 it'd be awesome, they'd be I'd be the super Bowl 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.680 favorite with the Rams. Have been your favorite with Aaron Rodgerson. 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:02.160 It's pretty good too, pretty good? Yes, yeah, Paul Man. 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:04.360 When don't you do the thing in your head when 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:07.360 you've been speculative trade you start picturing people in different 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:09.640 uniforms than the colors. I just think of the spiral 0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:13.800 Ram's helmet on Rogers, good luck, good luck on anybody. 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:15.960 I'd look good in that, jarthy. But the Niners have 0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:18.120 made no secret of the fact they're all they've been 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:22.360 looking for Jimmy G's replacement. They wanted Tom Brady, Yeah, 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:26.320 they made no secret they wanted Aaron Rodgers. They got 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.360 Trey Lance. Like the handwritings on the wall. And if 0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:32.600 you could trade Garoppolo in the number three pick, Now, 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:36.400 if I'm Green Bay, do I want that? No? I 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:39.040 mean then I got Garoppolo? And then how long do 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:42.040 I have Garoppolo? And is he a starter? And then 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.920 so I don't want I don't want another question mark here, 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:50.200 like I need somebody. They need a quarterback, whether Rogers 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.400 stays or not, they need another quarterback on the roster 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:56.320 because Jordan Love was the third string quarterback. Yeah, Pa, 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.760 If I'm the Packers, I hate the idea of trading 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:01.920 Aaron Rodgers to any decent team because those draft picks 0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:03.480 are gonna be the twentieth pick of the draft, the 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.040 twentieth pick of the draft, like the forty nine Ers 0:11:06.080 --> 0:11:08.679 or the Rams or the Saints. Those are awful trade partners. 0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:12.079 Those are between NFC teams and the fact that they're 0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:15.240 gonna win, and those draft picks become almost like high 0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:17.640 second round picks, and you don't want to trade him 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.800 to your rival. You know, the Niners. You don't want 0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:22.920 to trade now. I mean that's not the true rival, 0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:24.920 but they are arrival when it comes to getting to 0:11:24.960 --> 0:11:28.360 the super Bowl, and when that team is healthy that 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:30.400 they would be a better team than the Packers, and 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:35.760 you give them Aaron Rodgers. I think if you see 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.160 the Jimmy g thing doesn't excite me. If I'm Green Bay, 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.560 the third overall pick, Okay, what am I getting? I 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:46.960 can take another quarterback, or I can take Kyle Pitts, 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.200 or I can trade down. I don't know. That's what 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:51.480 I was trying to one. I was wondering, like, how 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:54.360 much is enough to get Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, I'm a club. 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.480 Pro Football Talk has some possible veterans they could sign 0:11:57.520 --> 0:12:00.480 in Green Bay and it ain't pretty. Brian Hoyer, Barkley, 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:06.760 Nick Mullins, Blake Bortles, and RG three out excuse Ryan 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.240 and Ryan and Florida joins us. Hey, Ryan, what's on 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:14.359 your mind today? Guys? I got I got your answers. Okay, 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:23.319 so near in December thirt so Packers they they got 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.959 a month to break Rogers looked like today to day 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:32.000 the deal sending Rogers to Denver is done. He said, 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:39.880 you said yourself, pack two people. But Ryan, Ryan, thanks 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.679 for the phone called. This isn't a leak. That's what 0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:46.319 I'm trying to clean up today. This was an accumulation 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:51.520 by Adam Schefter since the season ended. And now why 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:54.520 he decided to drop it on Draft Day, I still 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.680 don't know, because if it was a leak, then it 0:12:57.720 --> 0:13:00.240 would be this is coming out now. This is why 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:03.800 it's coming out now, and whatever side is leaking this information, 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:07.240 it doesn't sound like it was a leak. It sounds 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:10.360 like it was an open secret. He's not happy and 0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:14.079 teams know that, and that's why the Niners reached out. 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:18.040 The Rams reached out because they knew something was going on, 0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.240 and then they found out they were shut down. Pete 0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:25.440 Niwa joins us, Hey, Pete, what's on your mind? Since 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:27.120 you don't have a lot of hard information, I've been 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.319 consulting my gut and I have a definitive answer. Who 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:33.319 gained the most by this coming out and who's been 0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:36.760 proactively talking to the media all offseason. It's definitely the 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.200 forty nine ers. That's definitely who was a source. They 0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:41.960 had the information, they had the most to gain, I think, 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:44.560 without a doubt, outs to leak the information. All right, Well, 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:46.840 thank you, Pete. Yeah, Seton, I just want to point 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:50.079 out for the record that so far, by far, the 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:53.000 most accurate source on this story has been Bret, the 0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:56.520 it guy in Wisconsin and Wisconsin this whole thing is 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:59.560 being completely blown out of proportion so far. He's checking 0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:03.480 out more than every other NFL reporter. And Brett knows 0:14:03.520 --> 0:14:06.319 somebody who knows somebody who works at a best Buy 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:08.480 and was kind the best Buy was made up, that 0:14:08.520 --> 0:14:13.079 wasn't true. Okay, so a an it store somebody who 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:16.000 there that the team apparently gets their apple products from. Yes, 0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:18.520 so maybe it's an apple store. And then he's on 0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:21.320 the board. And then he said that that boss is 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:23.760 on the board. He said, don't worry. We had a meeting. 0:14:23.760 --> 0:14:25.640 We had a board meeting, and they said everything is 0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:28.720 blown out of proportion so far, that's the most realistic 0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:37.160 report we've gotten in the past week. If Chefty just 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:43.960 says anonymous sources, is it a little easier to understand 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:47.120 when you do team sorce. That's the only thing that 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:50.520 caught my eye was like, wait a minute, team source. Yeah, 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:52.640 pause to me. It's the end of his tweet where 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:56.320 he says sources told ESPN on Thursday. It made it 0:14:56.360 --> 0:15:00.680 sound like it was a exploding situation, less of a 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.400 here's the information I've gathered since the season end. The 0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:05.200 result is the same. I don't believe. I think Adam 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:07.880 Schefter is completely obviously telling the truth, and he believes 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:09.640 his reports. He's got great sources, he's got a lot 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:11.400 of history of it. But when you see the tweet, 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:13.920 it had a reaction where it was an immediate blow 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:16.640 up of some type where Rogers got a hold of 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:19.040 people in the organization moments before the draft, for hours 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:20.760 for the draft, to days before their every said, look, 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:22.360 I'm not sticking around here. I just want to let 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:24.120 you guys know before draft nights so you can make 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:26.560 your new plans. It just felt something was imminent, like 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:29.520 something was going to happen tonight in the draft that 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:32.120 Mark Schlais was talking on Draft night, march laars pretty 0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:34.520 connected guy, especially with the Denver Broncos. He said he 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.880 expected that he was reading the tea leaves. He expected 0:15:37.880 --> 0:15:40.320 the Denver Broncos to acquire Aaron Rodgers. That's how hot 0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:44.520 that story was that night. Fill in Indiana's back. I Phil, 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:48.560 what's on your mind? Dan? It is always a pleasure 0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:53.640 to speak with you. I really become increasingly frustrated with 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.880 these like whether it's Woach or Chef Dey. While I 0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:59.080 don't like them, it just seems that they come out 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:04.320 with these stories that have no exact facts. And it 0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:06.560 seemed like your interview with Schefter, it just seemed like 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:09.800 all he did was listening to press conferences and release 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:12.440 a story. It didn't seem like there were any any 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:15.080 facts behind it. It didn't seem like there were any 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.040 you know, whether he spoke to sources and Dan, I 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:20.320 just really wanted to get your thoughts. That to me 0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.040 is irresponsible journalism, but I really wanted to get your 0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:26.480 thoughts down. We'll always have a great day, buddy. Thank you. Phil. Look, 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:31.760 I trust Adam Schefter his sources. I just wanted to 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:36.840 know about the timing, that's all, and who was going 0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:39.080 to leak the like why was it coming out? And 0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:42.920 it felt like there was information coming out right then not. 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:46.160 You know, this is an accumulation that started after the 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:50.160 NFC title game. That's what I didn't understand. What was 0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:55.120 the breaking news. Yes, but even Paul Allen saying the 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:57.400 forty nine ers reached out about a trade for Aaron 0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:02.120 Rodgers is a completely different story. Then Aaron Rodgers is 0:17:02.120 --> 0:17:05.199 disgruntled and wants out. Those are those are completely separate 0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:10.199 stories in some respect. Well, one is very specific. The 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:14.560 Niners called the Packers and there's at least a discussion 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:17.680 of the number three pick and Jimmy Garoppolo. I don't 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.720 know what Roger's mindset is. We're probably not going to 0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:24.199 find that out. He doesn't have he doesn't owe it 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:25.840 to us in the media. But I think he owes 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:28.720 it to the fans in Green Bay and to the Packers. 0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:31.400 If you want to move on, what's the best way 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:35.680 to move on? Just say it? I want to move on. No, 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:41.680 Patriot fans realized Tom Brady wanted to move on. Fans 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.160 move on as well. It hurts. It's gonna it's gonna 0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:49.160 hurt if he's successful elsewhere. But the Packers have done 0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:53.600 this before. At some point you have to say enough, 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:57.520 we're not going to make you happy enough. Do we 0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:01.080 want to tie up all this money? No, we wait 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:03.639 till June first. That cap hit is not that bad. 0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:07.919 Do you still have teams that need quarterbacks? What can 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.880 you give us? You just put them out there. It's 0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.040 like a tagsail. What are you willing to give us? 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.680 That's what happened with the Lions with Matthew Stafford. Granted 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:21.880 not the status of Aaron Rodgers, but that's you were 0:18:21.960 --> 0:18:25.560 planning on this moment, the Packers. That's why you drafted 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:31.119 Jordan Love? Can you can you trade Jordan Love? Do 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:36.120 you fire the GM? Do you give Rogers a contract 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:38.720 that you know is going to pay him forty five 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.560 fifty million? Like? At what point do you as an organization, 0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:45.560 just say it just doesn't make sense. This is painful. 0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:47.920 And yes, as Chefty said, you want to be known 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:52.359 as the GM who traded Aaron Rodgers, Well, what am 0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:55.560 I getting in return? And what is the endgame for 0:18:55.600 --> 0:18:59.640 Aaron Rodgers? Is he gonna sit out and retire? We're 0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:03.120 gonna as for his signing bonus money? Bat Like, there's 0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:05.280 a lot left to this. Yeah. See, I wonder if 0:19:05.280 --> 0:19:07.840 Tom Brady hadn't just won the Super Bowl with the Buccaneers, 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:10.560 if the Packers would have been more open to that trade, 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.080 because I mean that the one of the storylines of 0:19:17.080 --> 0:19:20.359 the season was and especially after the super Bowl was 0:19:20.440 --> 0:19:22.840 well it looks like Brady one and Belichick loss. Patriots 0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:25.760 really screwed up. Yeah, And I'm just I would bet 0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.320 that teams are a little more leary now of being like, oh, Craig, 0:19:28.400 --> 0:19:29.920 we don't want to let him go, so he wins 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:32.159 a ring and now we look stupid. Tom got to 0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:35.520 pick where he's going. Aaron might not get that luxury 0:19:35.520 --> 0:19:37.920 to pick where he's going, because if I'm the Packers, 0:19:38.280 --> 0:19:41.280 I'm not trading him to an NFC team. You want 0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:43.680 to go to Denver? All right, let's see what they have. 0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:49.440 If you really want to be me and you send 0:19:49.480 --> 0:19:53.439 him to Houston, you're safe. Yeah, you don't have to 0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:56.360 worry about him going to a super Bowl. We'll take 0:19:56.359 --> 0:20:00.840 a break. It was unbelievable last night with the Capitals 0:20:00.840 --> 0:20:04.480 and the Rangers at the garden because they drop the 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:07.600 puck and then they dropped the gloves. Pierre Maguire will 0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:10.000 join us to recap what he saw last night. Twenty 0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:12.480 one after the hour, more phone calls as well. Take 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:16.600 a break here on the Dan Patrick Show. Tax season's 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:20.080 scaring right. IRS is issuing warnings to watch out for 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:25.919 ghost tax preparers now they don't sign as the paid 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:28.600 tax preparer on your tax return, which could be a 0:20:28.640 --> 0:20:31.200 red flag if you become the victim of a scam 0:20:31.280 --> 0:20:33.879 or refund fraud.

Rooney and Dowd deefa 0:21:43.000 --> 0:21:48.200 Seppi going out it with halfaway block well clip one 0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:53.560 second in. That's how it started. Last night nbcsn NHL 0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:57.239 on NBC. Inside the Glass analyst Pierre McGuire was on 0:21:57.280 --> 0:22:00.560 the call for that game last night. He'll be on 0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:05.800 the call for tonight's Rangers Bruins matchup NBCSN. Probably less 0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:10.160 fireworks in that one, and Pierre kind enough to join us. Pierre, 0:22:10.200 --> 0:22:12.359 when did you sense that there was something that was 0:22:12.440 --> 0:22:15.800 going to happen prior to or quickly after the puck 0:22:15.880 --> 0:22:19.520 was dropped? Probably earlier in the afternoon, Dan, when I 0:22:19.560 --> 0:22:21.399 had a chance to talk to Lars Eller or the 0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:25.640 Washington Capitols. The Washington Capitals clearly brought their a game, 0:22:25.720 --> 0:22:28.880 not just athletically but physically as well, and I think 0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:30.840 they were tired of some of the rhetoric that was 0:22:30.880 --> 0:22:33.000 going out there about their team. I know the Rangers 0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:35.720 were very tired about some of the rhetoric that was 0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:38.199 going on around their team. So I think earlier in 0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:40.000 the afternoon I kind of felt there was going to 0:22:40.080 --> 0:22:42.879 be some shenanigans. Ever, it's going to happen. Whether it 0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:44.480 happened at the start of the game or the middle 0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:46.760 of the period, I didn't know. But also, if you 0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:51.160 send the fourth line out both teams, I'm guessing you're 0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:54.760 sending out your tough guys and That's not normal for 0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.480
