Well, you want 29 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 1: to talk about a news dump, usually you do it 30 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: on a Friday afternoon. I would have thought that you 31 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: celebrate this like on a Monday. Then you get to 32 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: own the week, or at least you get to own 33 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: some of the headlines with the talk shows. Josh Allen, 34 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: by virtue of his new six year, two hundred fifty 35 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: eight million dollar contract, will make just over two and 36 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: a half million dollars per game over the next six years. 37 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: I was also wondering this and mcleve and I don't 38 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: know if you can find this out, but if you 39 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: look at the value of a franchise, and Forbes just 40 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: came out with the values of the NFL franchises, the 41 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: quarterback and what he makes to the percentage of the 42 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: percentage of the value of that team. I think the 43 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills were the lowest least valued team in the 44 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: NFL at around two and a half billion dollars. But 45 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: if I look at Josh Allen's salary his contract compared 46 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: to what the Buffalo Bills are worth, it's about I 47 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: think twelve or thirteen percent of that value. Yeah, you're 48 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: two point two seven billion. Yeah, and he's got two 49 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty eight over six years. Yeah. Yeah. I 50 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: was just curious about that with some of these teams, 51 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: where you look at Dak's contract compared to what the Cowboys, 52 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys are worth at least five billion, 53 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: maybe six billion dollars. I'm not saying Dak Prescott's underpaid. 54 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: I'm just saying that when you look at the money, 55 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: the value, the evaluation is a big difference in Josh Allen, 56 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: what he's making and what the Buffalo Bills are worth 57 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: as opposed to the Cowboys, even the Kansas City Chiefs 58 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes with what he's making. The Texans might 59 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: be a little bit different. I don't know what the 60 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: Texans value is, but they're paying to Shaun Watson over 61 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: forty million dollars right now. And this is where we go. Okay, 62 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: who's next up? Lamar Jackson's next up, Baker Mayfield's next up? 63 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: And then what are you going to make? And here's 64 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: another thing. At some point, does a GM say you're 65 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: not going to make as much as Josh Allen Like, 66 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: to Baker Mayfield, I would say, no, we're not paying 67 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: you what you know Buffalo's paying Josh Allen. We're not 68 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: going to pay you what Lamar Jackson's going to make 69 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: for the Ravens. Josh Allen, to me, was is valuable 70 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: to his team last year as any quarterback and maybe 71 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: any player. He was that good. I didn't think they 72 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: have a good running game offensive line, and he made 73 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: things happen. He was helped out by Stefan Diggs, but 74 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: he made things happen. As far as Baker Mayfield, he's 75 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,119 Speaker 1: not in that class. He's not in Lamar Jackson's class. 76 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's won an MVP, but I'm sure Baker Mayfield 77 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: is going to go, hey, sign me up. I should 78 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: be getting more than Josh Allen and he shouldn't be. 79 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: But you know, Allen has been a great fit for 80 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: the Bills. So he came in and look, I was 81 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: skeptical and said that on the show. You know, I 82 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: just I didn't think he understood the game. I didn't. 83 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 1: You know, his accuracy was not good his last year 84 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: at Wyoming. You know, a lot of his you know, 85 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: good players, receivers had graduated, and he didn't look good 86 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: and he looked like a project when he was out there, 87 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden he kind of turned 88 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: the corner. Now, does he still make himself vulnerable because 89 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: he runs a little bit more night Like, yes, I 90 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: know that he's a big guy. It's like Lamar Jackson. Hey, 91 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: he's a fast guy. Okay, it only takes one hit, 92 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,239 Speaker 1: ask RG three. He was a he was a track 93 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: guy that fast. You eventually make a mistake. You don't 94 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: get out of bounds, you don't know, you don't see it. 95 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: You know, defender coming your way. Josh Allen and you 96 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: are tied together, and there's a lot of guaranteed money 97 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: in there. He had thirty seven touchdowns just ten interceptions. 98 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: He completed over sixty nine percent of his passes, and 99 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: he was runner up to Aaron Rodgers in the MVP 100 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: balloting led the Bills to the AFC title game. You know, 101 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: you're starting to see that evolution. That's what you want, 102 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: that the quarterback who comes in and then takes that 103 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: next step. And he certainly has done that. But you 104 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: have your quarterback, and uh, I hope you you have 105 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: your quarterback because that's a whole lot of money that 106 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: you're going to be paying. But Buffalo was relevant, Well, 107 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: you've got you've got a franchise quarterback there, you've got 108 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: a great wide receiver. Um, you know, you got Tom 109 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: Brady out of the division and he's but you know, 110 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: I would not be paying that kind of money to 111 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and Lamar Jackson. Yes, go ahead, but Baker 112 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: Mayfield I need. I need to see more. I need 113 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: to see another year out of Baker Mayfield. I do. Yeah, 114 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: I'm like Clovin, But what about the fact the argument 115 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: that he wants to be in Buffalo and Buffalo can't 116 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: sign free agents, so you might as well give your 117 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: cap to Josh Allen. Yeah I understand that, I mean, 118 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: but you have to get your quarterback, and they got 119 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: their quarterback. Stephan Digg seems okay in Buffalo, but he 120 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: didn't sign there. No, no, he tried. I think they 121 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: traded yeah right, yeah, but it's not one of It 122 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: doesn't sound like he's like I can't wait to get 123 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 1: out of here. It seems like he and Josh Allen 124 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: have formed pretty good relationship on the field, But then 125 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: you look at it felt like Josh Allen did more 126 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: with less and Baker Mayfield does less with more. And 127 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: in fairness to him, you know, first year system with 128 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski, they should be a run first team. I 129 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: think he tried too hard to keep Odell Beckham. You 130 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: know in the game where Jarvis Landry to me was 131 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: the better receiver or the more consistent one. But this 132 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: is a really, really important year for Baker Mayfield because 133 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: this is a team that could go to the super Bowl. 134 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: You know, you still want to find out what you 135 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: have with Baker Mayfield. And I don't know, I know 136 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns sail the right things or Baker's saying, hey, 137 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: I don't care about contract extension, I care about winning. 138 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: I mean those are the right things to say. Whether 139 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: he feels that way or not. Lamar Jackson's going to 140 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: get taken care of. But at some point somebody has 141 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: to say I'm not going to pay you more. Like, 142 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: just because Josh Allen signed on Friday, is Baker Mayfield 143 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: worth more? If Baker Mayfield signed on Friday, you know, 144 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,239 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is getting more than Baker Mayfield. Mark Jackson's 145 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: getting more than Baker Mayfield. But if Baker Mayfield's the 146 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: last of these three and he's going to make more, 147 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: doesn't make financial sense. Yeah, Paul, there are no there's 148 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: no discount. There's there's either it's like a quarterback is 149 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: the supermax contract as when they come up on their 150 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: fourth year, you either extend them at the supermax the 151 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: quarterback supermax set, or you cut them. They get the 152 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: Mariota Winston treatment or the Trubisky treatment. It's either pay 153 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: or bail. That's that's all. That's the only window of quarterbacks. Yeah, 154 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: but somebody's got to be smart and say, no, we're 155 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: not doing that. Hey, you want to stay here, you 156 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 1: want to play here, you want to be our quarterback 157 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: in Cleveland. Here's the deal. You're not a forty four 158 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: forty five million dollars a year a guy. Yeah, mclovian, 159 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: here's an interesting one coming up. Kyler Murray that's a 160 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: guy who has not earned two hundred and fifty million. 161 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: But do you have to pay him that? You know, 162 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: I want to see one more year here, he's year three. Man, 163 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: I got some time there. It's just, hey, we're gonna 164 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: pay you now, unless I don't understand the salary cap 165 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: or you know, whatever the financial ramifications are of getting 166 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 1: a head start. I need to see a little bit 167 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: more a couple of these quarterbacks night. Lamar Jackson needs 168 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: to be successful in the postseason. Okay, he's been very, 169 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: very good during the regular season. You know, Josh Allen 170 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: took that next step. You had your team on the 171 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: precipice of, you know, maybe playing in the Super Bowl. 172 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: That's pretty impressive stuff. But you know, I start to 173 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: look at we even look at the twenty eighteen quarterback class. 174 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield has seventy five touchdowns, forty three interceptions, Lamar 175 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: Jackson sixty eight touchdowns, eighteen interceptions. There's a lot of 176 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: rushing yards and touchdowns in there too. Josh Allen sixty 177 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: seven touchdowns, thirty one interceptions. Sam Darnold forty five touchdowns, 178 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: thirty nine interceptions. And don't forget about Josh Rosen, twelve touchdowns, 179 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: thirty nine interceptions days. Stat of the day. Stat of 180 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: the day comes that? What stat of the day, Yes, Paul, 181 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: I just looked up Lamar Jackson's rushing stats for his career. 182 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: He is the tenth leading quarterback rusher in NFL history. 183 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: He's been in the league three years. He's gonna fly 184 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: past Michael Vick at this rate. In forty six career games, 185 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson has three thousand rushing yards. He's halfway to 186 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: Michael Vick. It took VIC one hundred and forty three 187 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: games to rush for six thousand. Lamar Jackson's on pace 188 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: to rush for six thousand yards. In ninety five games. 189 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: He averaged sixty three yards a game rushing VIC average 190 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: forty two. It's not even close. Yeah, but he'll he'll 191 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: slow down. Yeah, he won't run as much. A lot 192 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: of times you run out of necessity. You're still learning 193 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: to go through your progressions. I mean, this happened to 194 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: Steve Young and he was thirty years of age when 195 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: he got his start in San Francisco, and then he 196 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: eventually became a great pocket passer, completing seventy percent of 197 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: his passers. Yes see wells. Michael Vick's still part of 198 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: that era too, of forcing runners to be pocket passers, 199 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: Like you're never gonna win with a guy who runs 200 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: like that. You gotta stay in the pocket and learn 201 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: to throw the ball, that old kind of thing. Yep, yeah, yeah, 202 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: I'm a club My guy Donovan McNabb started out running 203 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: like a house on fire, and then he eventually slowed 204 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: down and became more of a passer, which I think, Well, 205 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: it seems like the Ravens want to do that with Lamar, right, 206 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: they keep drafting receivers. Well, it's one thing to want 207 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: him to do it, the question is can he do it? Like, 208 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 1: how well can he do it? Now? You want him 209 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: to be a pocket passer, be able to be a 210 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: pocket passer and still have you know, the danger, the 211 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: element of danger with running the football, but he might 212 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: not be a great NFL passer in where you need 213 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: to complete passers like the hash works out on the numbers. 214 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: Can he make those passes? I mean, that's that's been 215 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 1: the real complaint about him even coming into the NFL. 216 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 1: And once he got into the NFL, can he make 217 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: those throws all the way to the left and the right. Yeah, 218 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: Paul Lamar Jackson. Second year in the league twenty nineteen, 219 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: he ran for twelve hundred yards and seven touchdowns. He 220 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: would have been fourth in the league, and rushing he 221 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,719 Speaker 1: probably would have made the Pro Bowl as a running back. 222 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 1: Mclubn What kind of poll question do you have today? 223 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: I was going to ask who would you hey the 224 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: most out of Josh Allen, Baker Mayfield and Lamar Jackson, 225 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: But I think you already answered that one. It's gotta 226 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: be Josh Allen. Is that if we put that out, 227 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 1: he's gonna run away with that. I don't know. I 228 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: think Lamar Jackson's gonna make more. He's been an MVP. Really, 229 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: if they're all three free agents, who do you value 230 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: the most? What if they're all the same price, who 231 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: do you want? Like Josh Allen fits the prototypical NFL quarterback? 232 00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:01,239 Speaker 1: You know, big guy, big arm has some athleticism. Lamar's trickier, 233 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: but what he does, he does it better than anybody does. 234 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: And then you have Baker, who you know, I don't 235 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: know if you can really look at what he does 236 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: and say, oh, that's special or that's different. I mean 237 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: it has to I think come down to his understanding 238 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: of the game and take what you can, you know, 239 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: take from a defense, don't force things, rely on that 240 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: running game. Set up the run. They're going to be 241 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: a good defensive team, and they should run and play 242 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: defense and then have Baker's sprinkle in. If Odell Beckham 243 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: wasn't on that team. Now, I know that he's a 244 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 1: talented player, he's just not somebody I want on my 245 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: team because I always have to I have to acknowledge him, 246 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: you know, but like, hey, what about me? What about me? 247 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: And I don't. I just don't want to do that. 248 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: And there's way, way, way, way too much media coverage 249 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: there and then there where he's like, hey, you know, 250 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: I still want to be the guy who was with 251 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: the Giants. I just I like, you could have a 252 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: chip on your shoulder when you prove yourself. I just can't. 253 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: You know, Hey, you got to acknowledge me. I'm over here, 254 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: I'm raising my hand. I just don't think in the 255 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: long run that that's good for anybody. All right, what 256 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: else do you have in Clovey? We have some Peyton 257 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: Manning commissioner question. We can say them or I can 258 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: hit you with him. Now let's wait. But I want 259 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: to bring back a portion of peyton Manning speech last 260 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: night and it did sound commissioner ish, So whether Peyton 261 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: would want to do that, you know, we keep waiting 262 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: for Peyton. Is he going to be a broadcaster? Is 263 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: he going to join somebody's front office? What if he 264 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: comes in and says, you know, hey, I only make 265 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: like eighteen million dollars a year. I'm the commissioner. I 266 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: make forty five million dollars a year. Although we've tried 267 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: to get Bob Costas to be the commissioner of baseball 268 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: and he's like, no, I love I love baseball too much. 269 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: You don't want to get in the weeds there. We're 270 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: gonna what am I doing now? Oh? Disciplinary hearing great? 271 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: Take a break. Peter King will join us.

And if so, 273 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: what kind of money are they going to be make? 274 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: And is they're making? Is there more to the Dak 275 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: Prescott injury, because it certainly seems like you're just a 276 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: little bit more there, just not sure how much.

Before I 300 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: get to Peter King, I wanted to play a portion 301 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: of Peyton Manning's speech last night. Now you're getting six minutes, 302 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: and Peyton thanks some people, jabbed some people, and then 303 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: he spent almost two minutes, so one third of his speech, 304 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: and he said this. I don't know about you, but 305 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: I'm not done with this game. I never will be. 306 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: I'm committed to ensuring its future. I hope you will 307 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,360 Speaker 1: join me in that commitment. As members of this Iron class, 308 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 1: we have a responsibility to make our game stronger from 309 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 1: the corner playground to the most celebrated stadiums. During the 310 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: past two years, the game of football has been challenged 311 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: by an explosion of sports and entertainment options, safety concerns, 312 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: erupting social justice issues, and a worldwide pandemic. Displaced fans 313 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: have taken on an entirely new meaning as our stadiums 314 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: have been shut down and fans shut out. We certainly 315 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 1: shouldn't walk away now. When we leave this stage tonight, 316 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: it is no longer about us. It is about cultivating 317 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: the game that has given so much to us. It's 318 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: about nurturing football to live and thrive. Another day, another year, decade, 319 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: and another generation. It's about gearing team that kids everywhere 320 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: can learn, bond, grow and have fun with every flag pulled, 321 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: every type were made, every pass throne, every run blocked, 322 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: sack and touchdowns. Gordon, the audience here tonight is made 323 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: up of diehard fans who feel football deep in your bones. Now, 324 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: we may have ignited the fire, but you have fanned 325 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: the flames. Inevitably, those flames will be whipped by the 326 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: winds of change, but they don't need to smolder. The 327 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: future of this game is ours to shape. We just 328 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: need to take tomorrow on our shoulders as readily as 329 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: we donned our pads before each game. Let this moment 330 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: become a cherished memory, and then remember, a legacy is 331 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: only worthwhile when there is a future to fuel. God 332 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: bless you and God bless football. All right, Yes see, 333 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,959 Speaker 1: it sounds like the only thing missing from the end 334 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: of that was and that's why I am proud to 335 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: accept the nomination of the next commissioner of the NFL. 336 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: Thank you, Springing Peter King. They must read every Monday morning, 337 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: Football Morning in America columnist NBC Sports dot Com. What 338 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 1: did you hear in that speech Peter. I heard the 339 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: voice of the man who should be but probably won't be, 340 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 1: the next commissioner the NFL. I mean, there's just there's 341 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: way too much non football stuff that Peyton Manning would 342 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: have to deal with. I mean my first thought was 343 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: that when I was listening, I said, that's that's something 344 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: that people need to hear. And it's something particularly from 345 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: Hall of famers, many of whom just say, hey, thanks 346 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: for the memories and walk away. And Peyton Manning said, 347 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: I'm not going to walk away. I want to pay 348 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: tribute to this game. I want to help this game, 349 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: make sure that it keeps its foothold in American society. 350 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: Commissioner Goodell signed that extension, so he's in place for 351 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: what four more years. Yeah, but look a lot of 352 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: people believe Well I wrote about this maybe two months ago. 353 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: There are many people in the NFL who think that 354 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 1: he's going to work quite a bit longer. The general 355 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: perception around the league was once he got all the 356 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: late and the new labor deal done, all the media 357 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: deals done, you know, after they finished doing whatever they're 358 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: going to do. I think they're probably gonna spin off 359 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: NFL Network after they do all the mega things with 360 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: the league that he would walk away. The issue is 361 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: Goodell is whatever sixty three. He doesn't want to be 362 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: an investment banker. He doesn't want to work for a 363 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: hedge fund. He doesn't want to spend the rest of 364 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: his life golfing and being on fifteen boards of directors 365 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 1: in ceremonial positions. He wants to do something and there's 366 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: nothing else he wants to do right now other than 367 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 1: be the commissioner. Yeah, I just I was surprised that 368 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: Peyton spent a third of his speech, almost a third 369 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: of his speech with that, and it sounded commissioner like 370 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: there instead of hey, we're waiting for him to be 371 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: a broadcaster or be a general manager. It's like maybe 372 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: he has, you know, bigger picture. There a couple of 373 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: things here. You got home on Friday night, you leave 374 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: this afternoon. You've been to Vegas, San Francisco, Dallas, La, Seattle, Denver, 375 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: Kansas City, best stop so far. And why I'm fascinated 376 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: by the Los Angeles Chargers. I know probably a lot 377 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: of people and I know this A lot of people. 378 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: The Chargers are not on their radar screen, and I 379 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: get it, but you know, I spent a good portion 380 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: of a morning last Monday with Brandon Staley walking around 381 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: the building, being in his office, sitting in on a meet, 382 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: a staff meeting, and you know, there's a lot of 383 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: five years ago he is the defensive coordinator at John 384 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: Carroll and so this is an incredible ascension. But I 385 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: compare it to Mike Tomlin. You know, as Dan Rooney 386 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: once told me, if I don't hire Mike Tomlin now 387 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: when he's thirty four years old, I'm never going to 388 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: be able to hire him. So the Chargers felt the 389 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: same way with Staley. That, plus, I think justin Herbert 390 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 1: obviously he's probably a top ten quarterback right now. He 391 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: could be top five by the end of the year. 392 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: Derwin James coming back, Joey Bosa trying to stay healthy, 393 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 1: the adjustment to so far will they have a place 394 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: in a very crowded sports market. The Chargers are fascinating, 395 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: but probably the best. The biggest thing I did was 396 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: to lead to my column today, which was essentially how 397 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs are a model for how you 398 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: should treat your quarterback and how your quarterback should always 399 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: be in partnership with the team. Speaking of which, Josh Allen. 400 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: Josh Allen signs that deal, and now next up is 401 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson Baker Mayfield. And I know you wrote this 402 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: in the column. You know that doesn't necessarily mean anything 403 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: for Lamar Jackson and Baker Mayfield. But how do you 404 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: see that playing out with both these no brainers, that 405 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: their teams are going to extend them. Look, I don't 406 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: I mean to me, it's very, very hard to look 407 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: at the career of Baker Mayfield and say that it 408 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: has a lot of similarities to Patrick Mahomes. If I 409 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: were the Browns, I'd wait. It might cost him some money, 410 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: But do you want to pay a guy and do 411 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 1: you want to end up getting Carson wentzt you know, 412 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: and totally getting screwed on your cap and all that stuff. 413 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: And again, I think the odds are better than fifty 414 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: fifty that he will be the Browns long term quarterback. 415 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 1: But are you positive? So? I think you're better off 416 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: having to pay whatever the number is, three million more 417 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: per year if you wait then paying Baker Mayfield right now, 418 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: because I just think looking at a season last year, 419 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: it ended great, but overall it was a good to 420 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 1: very good season. But are you positive right now that 421 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield is your franchise guy, why does the next 422 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: guy have to make more than the previous guy. It's 423 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: it's what has always happened in negotiating contracts in every sport. 424 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: And I think the Mahomes contract to some degree stands alone. 425 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: Some people three years from now will be above him, 426 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: probably when are certainly when the cap really starts to 427 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: go up. But I just think it's, look, it's all 428 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: monopoly money anyway. And look if if Josh Allen is 429 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: making forty three million a year on average, if he's 430 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: making two point seven million dollars for every football game 431 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: he plays, it just it's not anything that really occurs 432 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:52,479 Speaker 1: to me that is that's outrageous, But it's it's it's 433 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: it's the law of the land in the NFL and 434 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: in every sport that contracts never go down, particularly when 435 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 1: the sal recap goes up. What was Tom Brady talking 436 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: about alluding to where you're looking at all the money 437 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: that's being made and Forbes magazine ranking, you know, all 438 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 1: of these teams are worth at least two billion dollars, 439 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 1: But you know, didn't Tom use the word idiots or 440 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: idiotic ignorant. I think ignorant. Okay, yeah, I mean I 441 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: don't blame Brady, you know, because clearly look at it 442 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: this way, Dan, from the time that Tom Brady signed 443 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: his contract to now, and these are Forbes magazine valuations, 444 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people in the NFL really take these 445 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: as gospel. But since the day he signed his contract, 446 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are worth seven hundred and twenty 447 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: million more dollars than they were the day that he signed. 448 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: So I think Brady just looks at that and he says, look, 449 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: the players are not getting a cut of these tremendous increases. 450 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: Enfranchise value, Wake up, you know you. But the problem 451 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: now is, Dan, there's nothing you can do about the 452 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: salary cap until twenty thirty one if you want to rebel. 453 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: And the problem is, you know what rebellion is. It's 454 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: telling the NFL you're going on strike and seriously taking 455 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 1: a year off. And there's just not a majority of players, 456 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: I think, who are willing to do that. He's Peter 457 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: King is column Football Morning in America and of course 458 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: works for NBCNBC Sports dot Com. Help me understand what's 459 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: going to happen with Kirk Cousins in Minnesota. What can 460 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,360 Speaker 1: the Vikings do? And how do you think this plays out? 461 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: You know, I just have very strong opinions about this, Dan, 462 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 1: and I think that if you are in the vital 463 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: position that Kirk Cousins is in with a team, then 464 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: no matter how much and for whatever reason it might be, 465 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: that you don't want to take the vaccine, I just 466 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: I can't believe that you won't take the vaccine. I mean, 467 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: if Kirk Cousins test positive and it is symptomatic, theoretically, 468 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: if he tests positive on a Friday, he's going to 469 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: miss two games. That is one eighth of his season, 470 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: ten twelve percent, whatever it is. It's not one, you know, 471 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: two seventeenth, which is a little less than one eighth. 472 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: But I just I can't reconcile that. I can't reconcile it. 473 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 1: And you know, you can tell Mike Zimmer he's got 474 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: to walk a tight rope with this, and what is 475 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: he going to do. He's only alternative is to say 476 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: that this guy we're paying eight jillion dollars a year 477 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: or two we you know, we're going to start somebody else. 478 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 1: It's it's not realistic, it's not pragmatic. How does the 479 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: NFL ramp this up? Can they ramp this up? Pressure? 480 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the NFL would say, look, we got ninety 481 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: one percent of players in the league. We only have 482 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: on average on a ninety man roster, we only have 483 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 1: seven or eight players on average per team that have 484 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: not been vaccinated. That's good. The problem is with the 485 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: Delta variant, there's danger. Now you look at the rich 486 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: Eisens story. You know, he's vaccinated as a Delta variant 487 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: and he gets it and he passes it on to 488 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: his daughter and it's just it really knocks him out. 489 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: So that's why even if you get vaccinated, the only 490 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: thing it probably ensures is that you're not going to die, 491 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: and you're probably not going to get seriously ill, but 492 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: you still can be a spreader you know, of COVID. 493 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: So you know, we're in a tough time in this 494 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: country obviously, And I don't know what more the NFL 495 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: can do than it's already done. It's made players second 496 00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: class citizens who will not take the vacca scene, and 497 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: that's I don't know what else they can do. I 498 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: know the cowboys that they always make headlines, and I 499 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: don't know if there's more to Dak Prescott's injury. The 500 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: video doesn't look good, and the only reason why I 501 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: thought maybe there's more to it was Troy Aikman said, 502 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: it felt like there's more to this. It just it 503 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: feels like it's a vague report. What should say to you? 504 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: You know, I was there, I talked to him about it, 505 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: and there's nothing anybody can do right now. I mean, 506 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: he's been thoroughly examined. The Cowboys don't think it's anything serious. 507 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: But I mean, I think what you do here, it's 508 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: August ninth. If on August twenty if he's either not 509 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: practicing or he's practicing in a very limited way and 510 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: he can't throw his fastball, that's when you're worried. Or 511 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: August twenty third, whatever it is. You know, if you 512 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: get to be two weeks before the season and he's 513 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: not practicing fully, that's when I would worry before I 514 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: let you go. The Michael Thomas situation with the Saints 515 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: is certainly interesting. And then he sent out a tweet 516 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: and it said they tried to damage your reputation. You 517 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: saved theirs by not telling your side of the story. 518 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: Why didn't I mean, I guess I would say, why 519 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: didn't he return their phone calls for three months? Why 520 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: didn't Why did he not have contact with them for 521 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: the majority of this offseason? Why is that a guy 522 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: who is either? And again, look, we don't know the 523 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: whole story, no one does. But if it's true Jeff 524 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: Duncan reported this in New Orleans that he ghosted them 525 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: for most of the offseason, what else do you need 526 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 1: to hear? Isn't he most concerned with getting his ankle 527 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: right and getting ready for the start of the season, 528 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: an injury suffered on opening Day twenty twenty. Yeah, okay, 529 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: Is has a good chance to ruin two seasons when 530 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: he's making nineteen million dollars a year. I mean, there 531 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,719 Speaker 1: may be some irresponsibility on the part of the Saints. 532 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: There may be some, but let's hear what it is, 533 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: because right now they don't appear to be the responsible 534 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: party they might be, or the irresponsible party they might be. 535 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: But let's let's hear the evidence first. It feels like 536 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: they could be really good or a mess. Maybe there's 537 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: there's no room in between the fort Let's say Jamis 538 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: Winston plays You know, I remember Dirk Cutter for five years. 539 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: Not what he didn't have him for five years, but so, 540 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,479 Speaker 1: but at the beginning, he had a meeting with Jamis 541 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 1: Winston and before they drafted him in Tampa, he was 542 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator and he asked Jamis, he said, hey, I've 543 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: looked at all your tape at Florida State. Is there 544 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 1: any throw you're afraid of making? And he goes, no, 545 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: not a single one. And Cutter said, well, maybe there's 546 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: would be And he meant that. He didn't mean that 547 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: to slap him in the face, but he meant to say, man, 548 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: you make some careless throws. And five years later, what 549 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: is he doing? Still making careless thrills? I mean the 550 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: last throw he made is a member of the Tampa 551 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers, was a pick six that handed a win 552 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: to the Atlanta Falcons in overtime. So we have not 553 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: seen anything. It's wonderful to say, well, he's with Sean Payton, 554 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: now everything's fine. How do we know he hasn't played 555 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: football games. Yeah, he's played cameo appearances, but we don't 556 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: have any idea. We don't know if Taysom Hill can play. 557 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: So the one thing that has been an absolutely sure 558 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: thing for the New Orleans Saints for a decade and 559 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: a half. Now, all of a sudden, we really don't 560 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: have any idea what's going to happen when one of 561 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: those guys steps under center peaks off to Buffalo, Green Bay, Indianapolis, Chicago, Minnesota. 562 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: That's the next nine days. The next nine days, it'll 563 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 1: be a good time. Do you get some time with Rogers? 564 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I've requested him, but you know that's 565 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: up to him whether he wants to spend any time 566 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: with me whatever. I mean, a long time ago, Dan, 567 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: I'm sixty four years old, and a long time ago, 568 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: I said to myself, I'm not going to fight to 569 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: interview anybody. I'd like to interview everybody and I and 570 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: I submit my request to the PR people, and if 571 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: it happens, it happens. If not, hey, it's a free country. 572 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: What if he says, you got two questions, Pete, what 573 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 1: do you want to ask? Where will you be on 574 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: March first, twenty twenty two? What's your prediction? And you're 575 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: not going to get a second question after that? Well, 576 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: I mean you asked me what my questions would be. Oh, 577 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: I know, but I'm saying Rodgers won't let you have 578 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: the second one after Yeah, well, I mean I would 579 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: have to think of about this because Aaron Rodgers is 580 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: so smart that he would I wouldn't get an answer. 581 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: You're right, So to ask a question like that, quite honestly, 582 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: is useless. That would be a very very interesting thought. 583 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: I'd have to think about that, But that'd be fine 584 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: if he says he got two questions. I remember, Dan, 585 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,439 Speaker 1: I don't know, this is maybe three years ago. Bart 586 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: Starr was still alive and I went through set for 587 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: Football Night in America. They wanted me to do a 588 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: Rogers story for Opening Night. You know, they were kicking 589 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: off the season playing on Opening Night, and they said 590 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: to me, see if you can get Rogers to do 591 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: some sort of story. And I thought of about five 592 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: different things and everyone I was at his locker explaining here, 593 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: how about this, and everyone he's saying no to But 594 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: finally I said, how about if I get you to 595 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: talk about Bart's Starr in the meeting in his life. 596 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 1: He goes, well, that one I'll do, And I went 597 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: to see Bart Starr, got the last sort of diff 598 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: for cult interview with Bart star ever and then came 599 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: back and it was a pretty touching story. But look, 600 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers loves the history of the Green Bay Packers, 601 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: loves it, and I think he really loves the people 602 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: of Green Bay. So you know, we'll see how it 603 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: all turns out. My feeling is he's probably somewhere else 604 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two, but we'll see. Pete. Always great 605 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: to talk to you, Safe travels. Thanks again for your time. 606 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: Thanks a lot, Dan, take care.

Choices are being NFL commissioner, running 644 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: a team from the front office, coaching in some fashion, 645 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 1: or being in the media, right, And what is the 646 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: number one response?

It sounded like Peyton was running for office. 654 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 1: If you spend one third of your Hall of Fame 655 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: speech talking about the game, growing the game, because normally 656 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: these speeches are you're thanking everybody who was part of 657 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: your life. And one thing stood out with these speeches 658 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: over the weekend with just about every player, there was 659 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: one moment with one coach, and it could have been 660 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: when you're fifteen, could have been when you're twelve, could 661 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: have been when you're twenty five. John Lynch needed Bill 662 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:43,280 Speaker 1: Walsh to say you can be an All Pro defensive back. 663 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: And this is coming from the coach who coached Ronnie Lott. 664 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: And that's what Lynch needed because he was probably going 665 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: to play baseball. But it took that moment, that one moment. 666 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 1: You know, some of these players were talking about a 667 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: coach when they were in high school and that coach 668 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: was in the audience. So you never know, those of 669 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:09,720 Speaker 1: you who have the opportunity to be able to coach, 670 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:14,280 Speaker 1: whether it's your children or it's other children, you don't 671 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: realize the impact you're going to have and you can have, 672 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: and you might not realize it for a decade, fifteen years. 673 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: Somebody looks back. I remember my little league coach, Smokey Anderson, 674 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: and he wanted us to have fun, like it was 675 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: really important to have fun. You know, play well, but 676 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: have fun with it. And I just remember I still 677 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 1: remember that, and that's fifty five, you know, years ago. 678 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:47,879 Speaker 1: I remember him wanting us to have fun and really 679 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 1: stressing have fun. This is supposed to be fun. He 680 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: kept saying that over and over and over. But there's 681 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: that coach out there. If you're a coach or you're 682 00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: an athlete, there is somebody and they can open the door, 683 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: they can open your eyes, they can give you that reassurance. 684 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: There the confidence that you need. And that really stood 685 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: out last night with those speeches. Yeah to. And sometimes, 686 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: strangely it works the other way. You have someone in 687 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: your life, like a teacher that tells you you'll never 688 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,919 Speaker 1: be able to do this, you're don't even think about 689 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: becoming an athlete or a musician or whatever, and you 690 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: become famous because you spend your life dedicated to proving 691 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: that person wrong and turn it into a posit wheneveryone 692 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 1: doubted you. Yeah, and you saw that with Isaac Bruce 693 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: with his speech. He's calling out, you know, a coach 694 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: that he was not going to be The NFL was 695 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: not for him. Like those are things. The great players 696 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 1: have a chip on their shoulder. Even though they're the 697 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: best at what they do, they still have to have 698 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 1: a chip on their shoulder. Michael Jordan invented chips. We 699 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,399 Speaker 1: saw that during the last dance Aaron Rodgers. Remember chip 700 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: on his shoulder. They drafted a quarterback. Now he's got 701 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 1: another chip on his shoulder. Drew Brees Drew Brees famously 702 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: came into our studio Super Bowl when we were in 703 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 1: San Francisco and I gave him his draft profile and 704 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: these were the negatives about Drew Brees. And when we 705 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 1: were all done, Drew Brees said, can I keep this? 706 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: I'm going to put it in my locker. We saw 707 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 1: him in Miami at the Super Bowl and he said 708 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: he still had that piece of paper. Hall of Famer, 709 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: one of the greats of all time. It was extra motivation. 710 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: And that's what you see with a lot of these players, 711 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 1: former players. What was it that spurred you on? Yeah, 712 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot of Olympians during the Olympics. You see 713 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: them when they're in ninth grade or nine years old. 714 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: I want to be a high jump champion or a 715 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: pole vaulting championship. I saw an interview with Emmitt Smith 716 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,439 Speaker 1: once and he was, I think in fifteen years old, 717 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: and teacher says, what do you want to do when 718 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: you grow up? He goes, I want to be the 719 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: greatest running back of all time. He goes write it 720 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: down on a piece of paper. It's when you look 721 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: at it every day, it will either haunt you or 722 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 1: motivate you. And Emma says he still has a piece 723 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 1: of paper. Yeah, I M club should. Emmina said, I 724 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 1: want to run behind the greatest lie in offensive history. 725 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: Let's see John in California. Hi John, lead us off 726 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:14,280 Speaker 1: best and worst of the weekend. Hi Dan. My best 727 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: is the induction of Tom Flores into a native California 728 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: and into the Hall of Fame. And my worst is 729 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 1: that it took so long to induct them. And my 730 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: question for you Dan and dan As is when Flores 731 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: was a Raider quarterback, they went out in the community 732 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: and they represented us and they took on our personality. 733 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: I had my picture taken with him when he was 734 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: like when I was like ten years old. Is that 735 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 1: still going to happen with our professional sports teams or 736 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 1: have we lost that? Well? I don't know. I hope 737 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: we have that. I hope the athletes understand the impact 738 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: that they can have. But you know, Peyton Manning was 739 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 1: talking about that. But I go back to when Charles 740 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,720 Speaker 1: Barkley said I'm not a role model, and I remember 741 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: the uproar, and I thought, no, parents need to realize 742 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: they're the role model. I don't want to bank on 743 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning or Charles Barkley to be a role model 744 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 1: to my kids. I need to be. That's where it starts. 745 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 1: One hour of the books.
