00:00:39,908 --> 00:00:40,868
Speaker 4: Hey what's up, Kyle?

11
00:00:41,428 --> 00:00:44,028
Speaker 3: Anything that jump out to you from yesterday that we

12
00:00:44,148 --> 00:00:46,428
Speaker 3: just have not covered yet, whether it be from under

13
00:00:46,428 --> 00:00:48,028
Speaker 3: the radar to a quarterback to.

14
00:00:48,308 --> 00:00:50,268
Speaker 4: Just even something going out of your life. You're good, buddy.

15
00:00:51,668 --> 00:00:53,788
Speaker 2: Oh my life is fantastic. Never worry about that.

16
00:00:53,868 --> 00:00:56,268
Speaker 1: It's always just clicking on all cylinders. I just think

17
00:00:56,268 --> 00:00:58,068
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about this right now. The thirty

18
00:00:58,068 --> 00:01:00,508
Speaker 1: two franchises, and there's some very special ones that are

19
00:01:00,548 --> 00:01:02,708
Speaker 1: really the bedrock of the league. And two of those

20
00:01:02,748 --> 00:01:04,388
Speaker 1: we have no earthly idea who is going to be

21
00:01:04,548 --> 00:01:06,428
Speaker 1: their quarterback in twenty twenty five. I'm talking about the

22
00:01:06,428 --> 00:01:08,868
Speaker 1: New York Giants and the Pittsburgh Steelers. It's not one

23
00:01:08,908 --> 00:01:11,908
Speaker 1: of these younger teams or teams, they're always fledgling. It's

24
00:01:11,948 --> 00:01:14,988
Speaker 1: two of like the real real Blue Chippers, the Ogs.

25
00:01:15,108 --> 00:01:17,308
Speaker 5: It's the family. It's Rooney and Mara and if you know,

26
00:01:17,548 --> 00:01:18,508
Speaker 5: it's Runey Mara.

27
00:01:18,708 --> 00:01:20,508
Speaker 2: So there you go. We have it. It's the two

28
00:01:20,548 --> 00:01:22,468
Speaker 2: families of the end. I'm a cat Mara guy. I

29
00:01:22,588 --> 00:01:27,028
Speaker 2: like care Sniper, I like their insiti Rooney. Anyways, Yes, we'll.

30
00:01:26,868 --> 00:01:29,308
Speaker 3: Figure it out right, they're like the original six of

31
00:01:29,348 --> 00:01:31,828
Speaker 3: the NFL. We're just gonna find four other teams that qualify.

32
00:01:32,548 --> 00:01:34,948
Speaker 3: All right, Ian Rappaport, I'm gonna go to you first.

33
00:01:34,988 --> 00:01:35,748
Speaker 4: You started our show.

34
00:01:36,428 --> 00:01:38,148
Speaker 3: Can we just have one break the fourth wall for

35
00:01:38,148 --> 00:01:40,188
Speaker 3: a second, but how are you?

36
00:01:40,468 --> 00:01:41,028
Speaker 4: Are you good?

37
00:01:41,068 --> 00:01:43,908
Speaker 3: How's how's life? And then also, please get to the news.

38
00:01:44,388 --> 00:01:45,388
Speaker 3: Please answer this question.

39
00:01:47,908 --> 00:01:49,828
Speaker 2: I'm great, good, I'm making it.

40
00:01:49,828 --> 00:01:52,068
Speaker 6: We're grinding. I was on the peloton today at like

41
00:01:52,108 --> 00:01:53,788
Speaker 6: five thirty. It's the only way to get through when

42
00:01:53,828 --> 00:01:55,628
Speaker 6: you way don't have any sleep in your phone's buzzing

43
00:01:55,628 --> 00:01:58,348
Speaker 6: at two in the morning. So physically I feel fine,

44
00:01:58,348 --> 00:02:01,868
Speaker 6: and I you know, I really appreciate you asking great. Anyway,

45
00:02:01,948 --> 00:02:04,188
Speaker 6: let's get to the big news for the New York

46
00:02:05,308 --> 00:02:09,348
Speaker 6: splashed again in Free agency in the secondary again, this

47
00:02:09,468 --> 00:02:13,468
Speaker 6: time Javon Holland, the standout safety for the Miami Dolphins.

48
00:02:13,628 --> 00:02:15,788
Speaker 6: There was some question whether or not the Dolphins would

49
00:02:15,828 --> 00:02:16,868
Speaker 6: franchise tag him.

50
00:02:17,068 --> 00:02:17,668
Speaker 2: They did not.

51
00:02:17,908 --> 00:02:20,788
Speaker 6: It made him free and he capitalized, getting a three year,

52
00:02:21,188 --> 00:02:24,828
Speaker 6: forty five point three million dollar deal with more than

53
00:02:24,828 --> 00:02:27,748
Speaker 6: thirty million dollars guarantee Giants of adage to their secondary

54
00:02:27,788 --> 00:02:31,268
Speaker 6: Tom already in free agency Paul, so the Deebo gets

55
00:02:31,268 --> 00:02:33,268
Speaker 6: a three year, forty eight million dollar deal. They also

56
00:02:33,748 --> 00:02:36,828
Speaker 6: added Roy Robertson Harris on the defensive line. So the

57
00:02:36,868 --> 00:02:39,508
Speaker 6: Giants have spent plenty of money over the course of

58
00:02:39,548 --> 00:02:42,428
Speaker 6: the last couple of days shoring up their defense. Yes,

59
00:02:42,548 --> 00:02:44,868
Speaker 6: I know they need a quarterback. It's in the works.

60
00:02:45,188 --> 00:02:48,468
Speaker 6: They are efforting. It's Aaron Rodgers potentially choosing to do

61
00:02:48,508 --> 00:02:49,148
Speaker 6: the Giants.

62
00:02:48,908 --> 00:02:49,428
Speaker 7: In this yeries.

63
00:02:49,588 --> 00:02:51,188
Speaker 6: They'll get to that, but they are shoring up the

64
00:02:51,228 --> 00:02:52,388
Speaker 6: defense Tom while they wait.

65
00:02:54,428 --> 00:02:58,108
Speaker 8: The Vikings also making a splash very early this morning,

66
00:02:58,188 --> 00:03:00,308
Speaker 8: like three am, I think, when a cryptic tweet hit

67
00:03:00,348 --> 00:03:02,588
Speaker 8: the internet. Here they have agreed to terms with a

68
00:03:02,628 --> 00:03:06,108
Speaker 8: two time Pro Bowl defensive tax called Jonathan Allen on

69
00:03:06,188 --> 00:03:09,068
Speaker 8: a three year deal that is worth up to sixty

70
00:03:09,348 --> 00:03:11,308
Speaker 8: million dollars, and my understanding is.

71
00:03:11,508 --> 00:03:12,628
Speaker 2: That's the max value.

72
00:03:12,708 --> 00:03:15,508
Speaker 8: The base is closer to the seventeen million dollars per

73
00:03:15,588 --> 00:03:17,628
Speaker 8: year for Allan. There's a bunch of different bonuses that

74
00:03:17,708 --> 00:03:20,268
Speaker 8: he also can earn here. But this is a significant

75
00:03:20,308 --> 00:03:22,068
Speaker 8: investment in the guy who's played a whole lot of

76
00:03:22,108 --> 00:03:25,068
Speaker 8: football games and obviously had a ton of productivity with

77
00:03:25,308 --> 00:03:28,948
Speaker 8: Washington missed most last season because of a torn pectoral muscle,

78
00:03:29,268 --> 00:03:32,228
Speaker 8: somehow made it back down the stretch of the season.

79
00:03:32,268 --> 00:03:35,148
Speaker 8: Here the Vikings continuing to invest in that defense. They

80
00:03:35,148 --> 00:03:38,108
Speaker 8: did a big deal yesterday late in the day with

81
00:03:38,188 --> 00:03:40,828
Speaker 8: Byron Murphy, their Pro Bowl cornerback for three years and

82
00:03:40,908 --> 00:03:42,468
Speaker 8: sixty six million dollars.

83
00:03:42,788 --> 00:03:44,788
Speaker 2: On that deal. They've also added.

84
00:03:44,628 --> 00:03:47,188
Speaker 8: On the offense with Ryan Kelly coming in and playing center.

85
00:03:47,388 --> 00:03:50,068
Speaker 8: This is what happens, Jamie, when you let Sam Darnold

86
00:03:50,068 --> 00:03:51,948
Speaker 8: walk out the door. You got a little dexter walking

87
00:03:51,948 --> 00:03:54,548
Speaker 8: around money in cash, and you invested in some core

88
00:03:54,628 --> 00:03:55,828
Speaker 8: positions for the Vikings.

89
00:03:55,948 --> 00:03:58,108
Speaker 3: It all begins up front, Tom Pi, are you referencing

90
00:03:58,148 --> 00:04:00,828
Speaker 3: the skull tiede tweet that was put out a couple

91
00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:02,148
Speaker 3: hours before the deal broke?

92
00:04:03,748 --> 00:04:03,948
Speaker 2: Yeah?

93
00:04:03,988 --> 00:04:05,908
Speaker 8: Thanks, to everyone I know in my life sending me

94
00:04:05,948 --> 00:04:07,588
Speaker 8: that and saying like, let's meet Jonah And I.

95
00:04:07,508 --> 00:04:09,268
Speaker 2: Was like, yeah, it probably probably does. Probably.

96
00:04:09,988 --> 00:04:13,788
Speaker 3: I'm awaywet, Mike tom Ian, you guys are awesome.

97
00:04:13,788 --> 00:04:15,148
Speaker 4: We'll talk to you in a little of bit.

98
00:04:15,308 --> 00:04:19,548
Speaker 3: Let's let's focus on free agency frenzy. The first wave, Okay,

99
00:04:19,628 --> 00:04:21,588
Speaker 3: because this is just the first of the two day

100
00:04:21,628 --> 00:04:23,628
Speaker 3: or the second of the two day period. Excuse me, Peter,

101
00:04:23,748 --> 00:04:25,308
Speaker 3: the first wave happened free agency.

102
00:04:25,348 --> 00:04:26,228
Speaker 4: We're swimming in it.

103
00:04:26,428 --> 00:04:29,388
Speaker 3: What was your big time takeaway maybe not just from signings,

104
00:04:29,388 --> 00:04:31,548
Speaker 3: but maybe a couple that didn't happen around the league.

105
00:04:32,628 --> 00:04:32,788
Speaker 7: Yeah.

106
00:04:32,908 --> 00:04:35,188
Speaker 5: My first thing was go play well in the super

107
00:04:35,188 --> 00:04:37,388
Speaker 5: Bowl and you can get a Milton Williams pay day.

108
00:04:37,708 --> 00:04:40,348
Speaker 5: Milton Williams was not a household name, has this amazing

109
00:04:40,388 --> 00:04:42,308
Speaker 5: super Bowl and now has one hundred and four million

110
00:04:42,348 --> 00:04:44,428
Speaker 5: dollars in the bank. That's not taken away from anything

111
00:04:44,428 --> 00:04:46,748
Speaker 5: Milton Williams did as a Eagle, but when you have

112
00:04:46,828 --> 00:04:49,188
Speaker 5: your biggest day on the biggest stage, it sure helps

113
00:04:49,228 --> 00:04:49,508
Speaker 5: a lot.

114
00:04:49,588 --> 00:04:52,228
Speaker 1: Like Larry Brown on the Cowboys, no doubt that big

115
00:04:52,308 --> 00:04:52,868
Speaker 1: second ago.

116
00:04:54,188 --> 00:04:56,428
Speaker 5: But I look at the teams that have maybe been

117
00:04:56,468 --> 00:04:59,948
Speaker 5: a little cute negotiating over the last several months, and

118
00:04:59,988 --> 00:05:04,108
Speaker 5: I wonder, what have you been waiting for? We all

119
00:05:04,188 --> 00:05:06,468
Speaker 5: knew the salary cap was going to go up yet again.

120
00:05:06,508 --> 00:05:09,268
Speaker 5: The salary cap has been inflated every single year and

121
00:05:09,308 --> 00:05:10,588
Speaker 5: it's gone leaps and bounds.

122
00:05:10,948 --> 00:05:12,348
Speaker 2: The NFL had a very good year.

123
00:05:12,468 --> 00:05:14,668
Speaker 5: The NFL has a lot of money coming in and

124
00:05:14,708 --> 00:05:16,948
Speaker 5: the players split that money, and that's how we make

125
00:05:16,988 --> 00:05:19,588
Speaker 5: the salary cap. Well, when you saw those new media

126
00:05:19,628 --> 00:05:22,108
Speaker 5: deals coming in, and you saw Netflix coming in, and

127
00:05:22,108 --> 00:05:24,468
Speaker 5: you see Amazon coming in, you knew there was going

128
00:05:24,508 --> 00:05:26,268
Speaker 5: to be a bigger pie. So the NFL has.

129
00:05:26,148 --> 00:05:28,348
Speaker 2: More money to spend and has had more money coming in.

130
00:05:29,068 --> 00:05:31,668
Speaker 5: What were the Cowboys and Bengals looking at and what

131
00:05:31,708 --> 00:05:32,628
Speaker 5: were they expecting?

132
00:05:32,908 --> 00:05:36,148
Speaker 2: Not finding ways to get these deals.

133
00:05:35,788 --> 00:05:39,548
Speaker 5: Done before the new salary caps came in, and now

134
00:05:39,588 --> 00:05:40,428
Speaker 5: the numbers are.

135
00:05:40,348 --> 00:05:41,548
Speaker 2: Going to be even inflated.

136
00:05:42,228 --> 00:05:45,828
Speaker 5: Micah Parsons got rich over the last few days because

137
00:05:46,508 --> 00:05:50,148
Speaker 5: we're watching guys like Max Crosby, We're watching guys like

138
00:05:50,188 --> 00:05:54,348
Speaker 5: Miles Garrett set the market. Meanwhile, the Cowboys could have

139
00:05:54,388 --> 00:05:58,788
Speaker 5: come to terms with Michaeh Parsons for months. Michaeh Parsons's

140
00:05:58,788 --> 00:06:01,668
Speaker 5: contract has been no secret. Now Michael Parsons is going

141
00:06:01,708 --> 00:06:04,228
Speaker 5: to get more money than he would have less than

142
00:06:04,468 --> 00:06:08,828
Speaker 5: a month ago. You look at the Bengals, T Higgins,

143
00:06:09,028 --> 00:06:13,548
Speaker 5: Jamar Chase, they are both still looking for their contract now.

144
00:06:13,788 --> 00:06:16,668
Speaker 5: T Higgins is on a franchise tag, but the Bengals

145
00:06:16,708 --> 00:06:18,188
Speaker 5: have let it be known they want to sign him

146
00:06:18,228 --> 00:06:20,548
Speaker 5: long term, so much so they're willing to trade Trey

147
00:06:20,548 --> 00:06:23,108
Speaker 5: Hendrickson to save the money to get that done.

148
00:06:23,268 --> 00:06:24,908
Speaker 2: Jamar Chase the same thing.

149
00:06:25,388 --> 00:06:30,148
Speaker 5: My big takeaway from the first wave of free agency is, hey, teams,

150
00:06:30,908 --> 00:06:33,388
Speaker 5: take care of your guys while you can, and take

151
00:06:33,388 --> 00:06:36,068
Speaker 5: care of your guys before the new salary cap numbers

152
00:06:36,108 --> 00:06:39,468
Speaker 5: come out at the combine every year, you knew the money.

153
00:06:39,268 --> 00:06:41,348
Speaker 2: Was gonna go up, you knew the spending was gonna

154
00:06:41,348 --> 00:06:41,668
Speaker 2: go up.

155
00:06:41,988 --> 00:06:44,388
Speaker 5: Take care of these guys while you can. A lot

156
00:06:44,428 --> 00:06:46,148
Speaker 5: of teams did that, and a lot of teams did

157
00:06:46,188 --> 00:06:48,108
Speaker 5: it at the eve of free agency just to make

158
00:06:48,148 --> 00:06:50,428
Speaker 5: sure their guys don't leave for even more money. But

159
00:06:50,508 --> 00:06:53,028
Speaker 5: my big takeaway was I think the Cowboys and the

160
00:06:53,028 --> 00:06:53,708
Speaker 5: Bengals might.

161
00:06:53,588 --> 00:06:55,588
Speaker 2: Have overplayed their hands on both these guys. They're gonna

162
00:06:55,628 --> 00:06:55,948
Speaker 2: end up.

163
00:06:55,868 --> 00:06:58,228
Speaker 5: Paying even more money than they might have had they

164
00:06:58,228 --> 00:07:00,708
Speaker 5: gotten these deals done prior to any Let me.

165
00:07:00,628 --> 00:07:05,068
Speaker 1: Just rock, I'm sorry, get inside the Bengals heads. What

166
00:07:05,228 --> 00:07:08,628
Speaker 1: is the case for not having paid Jamar Chase. I

167
00:07:08,668 --> 00:07:11,748
Speaker 1: don't have one. I already said, drafted, homegrown, first team

168
00:07:11,788 --> 00:07:13,028
Speaker 1: All Pro, one of the best players in the league.

169
00:07:13,068 --> 00:07:14,828
Speaker 1: That's a guy you pay. We nailed it, we got

170
00:07:14,828 --> 00:07:16,748
Speaker 1: our guy. What if you were to sit them down,

171
00:07:16,948 --> 00:07:19,228
Speaker 1: like why haven't you done this? What would they possibly say?

172
00:07:19,228 --> 00:07:20,748
Speaker 5: Well, I think they've offered a ton of money to

173
00:07:20,828 --> 00:07:23,428
Speaker 5: Jamar Chase. I'm sure it's the numbers themselves and just

174
00:07:23,428 --> 00:07:25,028
Speaker 5: how high it can go, and I think it gets

175
00:07:25,068 --> 00:07:26,108
Speaker 5: hire every single.

176
00:07:25,908 --> 00:07:26,508
Speaker 2: Day they wait.

177
00:07:26,788 --> 00:07:30,348
Speaker 5: But yeah, the Bengals have this stigma, this stench for

178
00:07:30,468 --> 00:07:32,588
Speaker 5: years and years of being cheap. They're not being cheap.

179
00:07:32,868 --> 00:07:34,948
Speaker 5: They have to spend the money. It's a salary cap.

180
00:07:34,948 --> 00:07:36,788
Speaker 5: They have to hit a certain they have to hear

181
00:07:36,788 --> 00:07:38,788
Speaker 5: a certain basement, they have to can't go over a

182
00:07:38,788 --> 00:07:41,228
Speaker 5: certain ceiling. So they have the money, they want to

183
00:07:41,228 --> 00:07:43,228
Speaker 5: spend the money. They want to spend it on Jamar Chase,

184
00:07:43,268 --> 00:07:45,428
Speaker 5: and they want to spend it on t Higgins. It

185
00:07:45,548 --> 00:07:47,428
Speaker 5: just sounds like they haven't come to the right number yet,

186
00:07:47,428 --> 00:07:49,628
Speaker 5: but maybe they could have handled that last training camp

187
00:07:49,908 --> 00:07:52,068
Speaker 5: before we got to this point where now we're entering

188
00:07:52,108 --> 00:07:53,828
Speaker 5: the fifth year of his contract and he has all

189
00:07:53,868 --> 00:07:55,268
Speaker 5: the leverage, and.

190
00:07:55,148 --> 00:07:57,908
Speaker 9: I'm right there with you, guys head scratching for Cincinnati.

191
00:07:57,948 --> 00:08:00,348
Speaker 7: It's almost as if, well, it's been so long since.

192
00:08:00,108 --> 00:08:02,428
Speaker 9: We had a Joe Burrow type guy at Jamar Chase

193
00:08:02,428 --> 00:08:05,388
Speaker 9: type guys See Higgins type guy. We're paying these guys

194
00:08:05,508 --> 00:08:07,948
Speaker 9: early because we have a bunch of generational dudes in here.

195
00:08:08,028 --> 00:08:09,668
Speaker 9: We don't know what to do with them, and it

196
00:08:09,708 --> 00:08:11,308
Speaker 9: seems like it's going to bite them in the butt

197
00:08:11,388 --> 00:08:13,028
Speaker 9: here at the end of the day. My biggest takeaway

198
00:08:13,068 --> 00:08:15,988
Speaker 9: so far, a little top heavy at some key positions.

199
00:08:16,028 --> 00:08:17,908
Speaker 9: And if you're looking for a guy at one of

200
00:08:17,948 --> 00:08:21,348
Speaker 9: those key positions like cornerback, linebacker, edge, or quarterback, and

201
00:08:21,388 --> 00:08:23,708
Speaker 9: you're sitting here without a dance partner, it's gonna be

202
00:08:23,708 --> 00:08:26,268
Speaker 9: some slim pickings going forward. A bunch of cornerback ones

203
00:08:26,308 --> 00:08:30,028
Speaker 9: flew off the board earlier, your Carlton Davis, Tavarius war

204
00:08:30,148 --> 00:08:33,788
Speaker 9: DJ Reed, Byron Murphy, and there's some guys left, but

205
00:08:33,948 --> 00:08:35,268
Speaker 9: not some CB ones.

206
00:08:35,308 --> 00:08:37,388
Speaker 7: Maybe some CB twos or some slot guys. It's Sante

207
00:08:37,388 --> 00:08:38,188
Speaker 7: Samuel Junior.

208
00:08:38,228 --> 00:08:42,108
Speaker 9: You could do a Christian Fulton, Stefan Gilmour, who notoriously

209
00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:44,988
Speaker 9: is comfortable waiting until the end when teams get desperate

210
00:08:45,028 --> 00:08:46,788
Speaker 9: and up their offers a little bit. But if you're

211
00:08:46,828 --> 00:08:49,388
Speaker 9: out here looking for a CB one, I really don't

212
00:08:49,428 --> 00:08:49,868
Speaker 9: know what to tell you.

213
00:08:49,868 --> 00:08:51,708
Speaker 7: If you're out here looking for an off ball linebacker,

214
00:08:51,748 --> 00:08:52,748
Speaker 7: you got guys you're white.

215
00:08:52,988 --> 00:08:55,428
Speaker 9: I can't tell you how many other names I'm excited

216
00:08:55,428 --> 00:08:57,548
Speaker 9: about and can confidently say they're going to walk in

217
00:08:57,628 --> 00:09:00,188
Speaker 9: and start and make an impact day one. If you

218
00:09:00,228 --> 00:09:03,628
Speaker 9: need an edge, I'm excited about Charles Omnihew. After that,

219
00:09:03,748 --> 00:09:06,308
Speaker 9: it gets a little dice. Yeah, you have de Marcus Lawrence,

220
00:09:06,628 --> 00:09:10,668
Speaker 9: Joey Bosa's, Darius Smith, Dante Fowler, all guys well into

221
00:09:10,788 --> 00:09:11,468
Speaker 9: their thirties.

222
00:09:11,548 --> 00:09:14,108
Speaker 7: If you are without it, Dan's partner has some key positions.

223
00:09:14,108 --> 00:09:16,708
Speaker 9: It is going to be tough, and of course it's

224
00:09:16,708 --> 00:09:18,348
Speaker 9: the quarterback position.

225
00:09:18,028 --> 00:09:22,428
Speaker 2: Kyle, no doubt. And we have a lot to talk

226
00:09:22,468 --> 00:09:23,428
Speaker 2: about in some big names.

227
00:09:23,468 --> 00:09:25,548
Speaker 1: First, I need to apologize to the New York Giants

228
00:09:25,548 --> 00:09:27,668
Speaker 1: for the disrespect. Earlier in the segment, I said that

229
00:09:27,828 --> 00:09:30,748
Speaker 1: Kate Merra was in the movie Sniper, which of course

230
00:09:30,788 --> 00:09:31,228
Speaker 1: she is not.

231
00:09:31,308 --> 00:09:32,668
Speaker 2: She's in the movie Shooter.

232
00:09:33,068 --> 00:09:35,748
Speaker 1: Dramatically different and you might not think that's important.

233
00:09:35,908 --> 00:09:36,468
Speaker 2: It is for me.

234
00:09:36,708 --> 00:09:39,188
Speaker 1: I'm not sitting here to butcher old Billy Zay movies.

235
00:09:39,268 --> 00:09:41,788
Speaker 1: Kate Mara wonderful actress and fantastic and Shooter.

236
00:09:41,548 --> 00:09:50,508
Speaker 2: Stole to Statham is in the mechanics. Mechanics all right.

237
00:09:50,588 --> 00:09:53,628
Speaker 1: So this is the headline for me in not just

238
00:09:53,668 --> 00:09:55,628
Speaker 1: in this segment, not just in this tea, up in

239
00:09:55,708 --> 00:09:59,788
Speaker 1: the entire league right now, is who the hell is

240
00:09:59,868 --> 00:10:03,628
Speaker 1: going to be the Steelers starting quarterback Week one? They're

241
00:10:03,708 --> 00:10:06,628
Speaker 1: sitting there a massive mystery and a play on words,

242
00:10:06,628 --> 00:10:07,908
Speaker 1: a little bit of an enigma.

243
00:10:08,148 --> 00:10:10,588
Speaker 2: I see it this way. I've said this before.

244
00:10:10,668 --> 00:10:13,628
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers starting quarterback is more important than

245
00:10:13,708 --> 00:10:16,708
Speaker 1: most other quarterbacks in the league because the Steelers make

246
00:10:16,708 --> 00:10:18,348
Speaker 1: the playoffs nearly every single year.

247
00:10:18,628 --> 00:10:20,508
Speaker 2: So whoever this gentleman is.

248
00:10:21,028 --> 00:10:23,428
Speaker 1: He likely will be starting a playoff game in twenty

249
00:10:23,428 --> 00:10:25,908
Speaker 1: twenty five. It's really important, not just to Steelers, with everybody.

250
00:10:25,908 --> 00:10:28,188
Speaker 1: It's an important position. So the way I see it

251
00:10:28,268 --> 00:10:31,308
Speaker 1: right now, as they just paid huge money for a

252
00:10:31,308 --> 00:10:35,028
Speaker 1: wide receiver, here's your options. I don't think it's gonna

253
00:10:35,028 --> 00:10:37,388
Speaker 1: be Russell Wilson. I feel like the ship is sailed.

254
00:10:37,428 --> 00:10:39,468
Speaker 1: If you're starting to read the tea leaves. When they

255
00:10:39,508 --> 00:10:42,068
Speaker 1: said we maybe rather keep fields or that was the intimation,

256
00:10:42,108 --> 00:10:43,148
Speaker 1: I think Russell Wilson was gone.

257
00:10:43,148 --> 00:10:43,868
Speaker 2: I don't think it's him.

258
00:10:44,268 --> 00:10:47,428
Speaker 1: Then you have this species of let's sign this guy

259
00:10:47,468 --> 00:10:51,068
Speaker 1: and maybe we find something like a Daniel Jones or

260
00:10:51,108 --> 00:10:52,228
Speaker 1: even Jamis Winston.

261
00:10:52,348 --> 00:10:54,028
Speaker 2: That's one option. I don't like it either.

262
00:10:54,348 --> 00:10:58,508
Speaker 1: Then there's the truebridge quarterback, where it's like Jacoby Brissette,

263
00:10:58,588 --> 00:10:59,268
Speaker 1: Marcus Mario.

264
00:10:59,388 --> 00:11:00,028
Speaker 2: I don't see that.

265
00:11:00,028 --> 00:11:03,388
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, Yeah, Carson Wentz like the true We don't

266
00:11:03,388 --> 00:11:04,908
Speaker 1: think this is gonna be the future, but we'll just

267
00:11:04,908 --> 00:11:08,108
Speaker 1: get somebody in here. And there's the draft as usual.

268
00:11:08,228 --> 00:11:10,308
Speaker 1: The Steelers are paying the price for being good. They

269
00:11:10,348 --> 00:11:12,588
Speaker 1: have the twenty one pick. So I see all these

270
00:11:12,588 --> 00:11:14,988
Speaker 1: people saying, well, first of all, we'll get Jackson Dart.

271
00:11:15,028 --> 00:11:16,788
Speaker 1: You don't know if he's going to be there, and

272
00:11:16,868 --> 00:11:18,948
Speaker 1: to move up you don't have a second round pick.

273
00:11:18,988 --> 00:11:20,988
Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like the Steelers. They tried this a

274
00:11:20,988 --> 00:11:23,028
Speaker 1: few years ago with Kenny Pickett, with their kind of

275
00:11:23,028 --> 00:11:26,108
Speaker 1: crappy draft pick. They took one, it didn't work out.

276
00:11:26,228 --> 00:11:29,228
Speaker 1: Those are your options save for one. There is a

277
00:11:29,348 --> 00:11:31,868
Speaker 1: final option where you have a guy going into his

278
00:11:31,948 --> 00:11:35,548
Speaker 1: twenty first season who has four MVPs and his own

279
00:11:35,588 --> 00:11:39,588
Speaker 1: Netflix special and a good relationship with Mike Tomlin. Steelers fans,

280
00:11:39,708 --> 00:11:42,308
Speaker 1: how are you feeling about Aaron Rodgers being the starting

281
00:11:42,388 --> 00:11:44,908
Speaker 1: quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers as a forty one year

282
00:11:44,948 --> 00:11:46,148
Speaker 1: old about to turn forty two.

283
00:11:46,708 --> 00:11:48,068
Speaker 2: I think it's their best option.

284
00:11:48,268 --> 00:11:50,708
Speaker 1: I think there is no one out there with the experience,

285
00:11:50,788 --> 00:11:54,028
Speaker 1: the talent, the ability to manage those perhaps mercurial wide

286
00:11:54,028 --> 00:11:57,148
Speaker 1: receivers to get along with Tomlin. But that's my opinion.

287
00:11:57,468 --> 00:11:59,828
Speaker 1: I put it out there yesterday. I said, Steelers fans,

288
00:11:59,908 --> 00:12:02,428
Speaker 1: let's have a talk. Rogers might be your best option.

289
00:12:02,828 --> 00:12:05,788
Speaker 1: Response is very interesting. Some of them, I must say,

290
00:12:06,188 --> 00:12:07,028
Speaker 1: you know what I'm in.

291
00:12:07,228 --> 00:12:07,628
Speaker 2: I'm sold.

292
00:12:07,708 --> 00:12:09,308
Speaker 1: Let's bring him in here and draft a rookie and

293
00:12:09,348 --> 00:12:11,028
Speaker 1: then we can move on. But some of them were

294
00:12:11,108 --> 00:12:14,548
Speaker 1: let's say, I say not sold. Marine Mounty Rogers has

295
00:12:14,588 --> 00:12:16,668
Speaker 1: watched more than Big Ben was in his final game

296
00:12:16,668 --> 00:12:18,188
Speaker 1: as a Steeler. I don't have the answer, but I

297
00:12:18,188 --> 00:12:21,388
Speaker 1: know Rodgers isn't it. It'll be Wilson or Jackson Dart

298
00:12:21,388 --> 00:12:23,988
Speaker 1: if I had to guess again, don't count on Jackson.

299
00:12:24,068 --> 00:12:26,588
Speaker 1: Dark quarterbacks get attracted to the front of the draft. Next,

300
00:12:27,148 --> 00:12:29,348
Speaker 1: this is pure Steelers fans. You can tell from their

301
00:12:29,348 --> 00:12:32,108
Speaker 1: bios and their avatar. I'd rather they tank this season

302
00:12:32,148 --> 00:12:32,668
Speaker 1: than see that.

303
00:12:32,588 --> 00:12:34,428
Speaker 2: Person in black and goal. But don't like Rogers.

304
00:12:34,508 --> 00:12:37,228
Speaker 1: Rogers very polarizing, not for everybody. I would just say,

305
00:12:37,228 --> 00:12:39,228
Speaker 1: if you don't like Rogers, who do you like? You

306
00:12:39,268 --> 00:12:41,868
Speaker 1: have to have somebody Next tweet thank you Cheryl Hutton

307
00:12:42,188 --> 00:12:43,108
Speaker 1: goalie mom.

308
00:12:43,628 --> 00:12:46,348
Speaker 2: I can't breathe. There are literally no good free agent

309
00:12:46,428 --> 00:12:50,388
Speaker 2: quarterbacks left. What are we going to do? Ah? Donald

310
00:12:50,428 --> 00:12:51,868
Speaker 2: so badly like what they think.

311
00:12:52,148 --> 00:12:54,628
Speaker 1: I thought Donald was a fit. He's gone. They're not

312
00:12:54,708 --> 00:12:57,868
Speaker 1: getting justin fields. He's gone. I just don't know who

313
00:12:57,988 --> 00:13:01,428
Speaker 1: is left looking for the dance partner, and it's not

314
00:13:01,628 --> 00:13:04,828
Speaker 1: someone to dance around with some fledgling team. This is

315
00:13:04,868 --> 00:13:08,348
Speaker 1: a very important position. This is the Yankee shortstop. This

316
00:13:08,388 --> 00:13:11,188
Speaker 1: is the Steelers quarterback. And when I look around and

317
00:13:11,228 --> 00:13:14,428
Speaker 1: free agency, draft or everything the entire I don't see

318
00:13:14,428 --> 00:13:16,628
Speaker 1: a better option than Aaron Rodgers and all that comes

319
00:13:16,628 --> 00:13:18,548
Speaker 1: with him, a guy who played very well at the

320
00:13:18,628 --> 00:13:21,148
Speaker 1: end of the second half of last season. If you

321
00:13:21,188 --> 00:13:23,308
Speaker 1: don't want him because you don't like his personality and

322
00:13:23,348 --> 00:13:25,788
Speaker 1: all that stuff, I get it. Find someone who is

323
00:13:25,828 --> 00:13:28,268
Speaker 1: going to play better football for you Week one, twenty

324
00:13:28,308 --> 00:13:30,388
Speaker 1: twenty five, and I don't think they're available right now.

325
00:13:30,588 --> 00:13:33,148
Speaker 3: It's a good take, Kyle. It's Yankee shortstop. Maybe it's

326
00:13:33,148 --> 00:13:35,588
Speaker 3: like Red Wings goalie Lakers center.

327
00:13:35,708 --> 00:13:39,228
Speaker 4: Is the Steelers quarterback like the in the NFL?

328
00:13:39,268 --> 00:13:41,588
Speaker 3: Having played having played against these teams? Is that like

329
00:13:41,708 --> 00:13:45,068
Speaker 3: the qualifier position wise? Is he holding the standard the

330
00:13:45,148 --> 00:13:45,628
Speaker 3: right way?

331
00:13:45,828 --> 00:13:48,028
Speaker 9: It's a special role because one thing you always know

332
00:13:48,068 --> 00:13:50,388
Speaker 9: about the Pittsburgh Steelers is your defense will always put

333
00:13:50,428 --> 00:13:53,188
Speaker 9: you in position to win the game. I would argue

334
00:13:53,228 --> 00:13:55,028
Speaker 9: it's one of the best jobs in the world as

335
00:13:55,028 --> 00:13:57,508
Speaker 9: being the Steelers quarterback. I know I'm going to be

336
00:13:57,588 --> 00:13:58,268
Speaker 9: put in place.

337
00:13:58,468 --> 00:13:59,468
Speaker 7: I just can't lose the game.

338
00:13:59,508 --> 00:14:02,028
Speaker 9: And yes, the Aaron Rodgers we saw last year maybe

339
00:14:02,028 --> 00:14:04,788
Speaker 9: didn't excite us as much as the Green Bay days,

340
00:14:04,988 --> 00:14:06,108
Speaker 9: but he's not going to lose.

341
00:14:05,988 --> 00:14:06,428
Speaker 7: You the game.

342
00:14:06,628 --> 00:14:09,308
Speaker 9: He's surrounded with talents. We're gonna see what Arthur Smith

343
00:14:09,348 --> 00:14:11,668
Speaker 9: offense really looks like. Last year, Arthur Smith didn't really

344
00:14:11,708 --> 00:14:14,388
Speaker 9: get into the knity riddy of his offense because they

345
00:14:14,388 --> 00:14:16,708
Speaker 9: succumbed to just throwing the ball up on third and one.

346
00:14:17,108 --> 00:14:19,948
Speaker 9: But the fact is, Aaron Rodgers can win you games.

347
00:14:19,948 --> 00:14:22,228
Speaker 9: Aaron Rodgers can make sure you don't lose games. Aaron

348
00:14:22,308 --> 00:14:25,188
Speaker 9: Rodgers is not going to make mistakes, and that's enough.

349
00:14:25,268 --> 00:14:26,508
Speaker 7: That's Pittsburgh Stuet football.

350
00:14:26,508 --> 00:14:28,788
Speaker 9: We're gonna win eight nine games, we're gonna sneak our

351
00:14:28,828 --> 00:14:30,828
Speaker 9: way into the playoffs, we're gonna finish the year strong

352
00:14:30,908 --> 00:14:34,228
Speaker 9: most years, and we're gonna probably get bounced, but that's okay.

353
00:14:34,308 --> 00:14:37,868
Speaker 9: That's Pittsburgh Steeler football. Aaron Rodgers absolutely the best option.

354
00:14:39,388 --> 00:14:41,388
Speaker 5: I just find it interesting because you're right. We have

355
00:14:41,468 --> 00:14:44,708
Speaker 5: these two i'd say gold standard franchises, one of them

356
00:14:44,708 --> 00:14:46,348
Speaker 5: with six rings in their building, the other one with

357
00:14:46,388 --> 00:14:48,748
Speaker 5: four rings in the building, the Steelers and the Giants.

358
00:14:48,788 --> 00:14:51,548
Speaker 5: Then you got this motivated version of Rogers forty one

359
00:14:51,628 --> 00:14:52,028
Speaker 5: years old.

360
00:14:52,028 --> 00:14:53,708
Speaker 2: You start doing the pros and cons.

361
00:14:53,348 --> 00:14:56,348
Speaker 5: Of it, You're like Dable is an offensive head coach

362
00:14:56,868 --> 00:14:59,508
Speaker 5: who obviously is going to be motivated in a contract

363
00:14:59,588 --> 00:15:01,388
Speaker 5: year for him where it's as contract year.

364
00:15:01,428 --> 00:15:03,908
Speaker 2: If that Giants are terrible again, Dabel. I can't imagine

365
00:15:03,948 --> 00:15:05,028
Speaker 2: being back next year.

366
00:15:05,068 --> 00:15:07,988
Speaker 5: So it's like they're gonna be motivate Tomlin. Of course,

367
00:15:08,068 --> 00:15:10,188
Speaker 5: great respect for Rodgers. They play each other in a

368
00:15:10,228 --> 00:15:13,468
Speaker 5: super Bowl, like they've got a long history together. And

369
00:15:13,588 --> 00:15:17,188
Speaker 5: yet Pittsburgh, you look at those offensive skill position players,

370
00:15:17,548 --> 00:15:19,388
Speaker 5: you might like that even more than what.

371
00:15:19,348 --> 00:15:20,468
Speaker 2: The Giants have right now.

372
00:15:20,468 --> 00:15:23,508
Speaker 5: When you're looking at a guy like DK Metcalf and Pickens,

373
00:15:23,708 --> 00:15:25,868
Speaker 5: but it's Arthur Smith's offense, you might not be as

374
00:15:25,908 --> 00:15:27,428
Speaker 5: familiar with it as as Dables.

375
00:15:28,268 --> 00:15:30,068
Speaker 2: And then there's option C and D.

376
00:15:30,228 --> 00:15:33,348
Speaker 5: Option C is retire and step away, and option D

377
00:15:33,508 --> 00:15:36,028
Speaker 5: just take your sweet time. You're Aaron Rodgers and you

378
00:15:36,068 --> 00:15:37,988
Speaker 5: make a decision whenever you want, and you want to

379
00:15:37,988 --> 00:15:39,988
Speaker 5: see fit and these teams then eventually have to make

380
00:15:40,028 --> 00:15:42,028
Speaker 5: a move because they can't enter OTA's without.

381
00:15:42,028 --> 00:15:44,108
Speaker 2: What about other options for the Steelers? I listed all

382
00:15:44,108 --> 00:15:46,388
Speaker 2: the ones that I see. Am I'm missing something? Read

383
00:15:46,468 --> 00:15:48,188
Speaker 2: the tea leaves. I don't get it. No, I mean,

384
00:15:48,228 --> 00:15:48,548
Speaker 2: that's it.

385
00:15:48,548 --> 00:15:50,748
Speaker 5: It's like, you know, Jamis is a guy you mentioned,

386
00:15:51,148 --> 00:15:53,548
Speaker 5: Wentz is a guy you mentioned, and then you start

387
00:15:53,548 --> 00:15:55,588
Speaker 5: going down that Mac Jones list and it's.

388
00:15:55,428 --> 00:15:57,628
Speaker 6: Like gosh, we're.

389
00:15:56,988 --> 00:15:59,948
Speaker 5: Not gonna beat the Ravens and the Bengals with with

390
00:16:00,108 --> 00:16:01,308
Speaker 5: Mac Jones this year.

391
00:16:01,348 --> 00:16:02,348
Speaker 2: It's just not gonna happen.

392
00:16:02,388 --> 00:16:05,148
Speaker 5: So Steelers, I also don't know if they wanted to

393
00:16:05,148 --> 00:16:07,708
Speaker 5: commit all that money to Darnald or Fields as we see, like,

394
00:16:07,748 --> 00:16:09,548
Speaker 5: I don't think they saw themselves doing it with those

395
00:16:09,548 --> 00:16:11,908
Speaker 5: guys either, So kind of a rock in a hard place.

396
00:16:11,948 --> 00:16:13,748
Speaker 5: And yet as we see in the NFL every year,

397
00:16:14,388 --> 00:16:16,828
Speaker 5: the Broncos made the playoffs last season with Bo Nix

398
00:16:16,828 --> 00:16:17,668
Speaker 5: as their quarterback.

399
00:16:17,708 --> 00:16:19,508
Speaker 2: Like things happen, Brock, We're just.

400
00:16:19,508 --> 00:16:21,108
Speaker 3: Going to know you at the table here and you

401
00:16:21,148 --> 00:16:22,828
Speaker 3: two in New York. I say this with love, like

402
00:16:23,148 --> 00:16:26,908
Speaker 3: when someone sits in this chair and tease you guys

403
00:16:27,028 --> 00:16:29,268
Speaker 3: up and is in meetings with you guys, and like,

404
00:16:29,788 --> 00:16:31,748
Speaker 3: I know what I'm getting into when it comes to

405
00:16:31,788 --> 00:16:33,308
Speaker 3: your segments or your ideas.

406
00:16:33,428 --> 00:16:34,708
Speaker 4: You need a certain quarterback.

407
00:16:34,788 --> 00:16:37,428
Speaker 3: Let's just say in that wide receiver room with DK

408
00:16:37,548 --> 00:16:39,668
Speaker 3: Metcalf and George Pickens, and I don't think it's a

409
00:16:39,748 --> 00:16:42,348
Speaker 3: rookie quarterback that's gonna be like, yeah, I could totally

410
00:16:42,428 --> 00:16:45,388
Speaker 3: hang with this intensity in these personalities. I actually think

411
00:16:45,468 --> 00:16:48,188
Speaker 3: Rogers is a good fit for looking at those guys

412
00:16:48,188 --> 00:16:50,908
Speaker 3: staring them down and being like, can you just knock

413
00:16:50,948 --> 00:16:52,668
Speaker 3: it off and play the position for like.

414
00:16:52,588 --> 00:16:55,028
Speaker 4: One second, for one snap? And I feel like Rogers

415
00:16:55,068 --> 00:16:55,788
Speaker 4: is a good fit for that.

416
00:16:56,188 --> 00:16:58,788
Speaker 3: I'm not paralleling you guys to DK Metcalf and George Pickens.

417
00:16:58,828 --> 00:17:02,148
Speaker 3: I'm just saying jobs are a little bit more intense.

418
00:17:02,988 --> 00:17:07,708
Speaker 2: With which I'll be. Here's Metcalf, He's bigger than me.

419
00:17:08,428 --> 00:17:12,828
Speaker 5: Pickens, I'm the one with my helmet.

420
00:17:12,948 --> 00:17:13,148
Speaker 7: Yeah.

421
00:17:13,188 --> 00:17:19,508
Speaker 3: At the draft, there is a certain puffing of the

422
00:17:19,628 --> 00:17:22,548
Speaker 3: chess that divisions get to do if a team that

423
00:17:22,668 --> 00:17:24,748
Speaker 3: is in that division wins a super Bowl. And that's

424
00:17:24,788 --> 00:17:27,308
Speaker 3: how the NFC East feels right now is the Philadelphia

425
00:17:27,308 --> 00:17:30,428
Speaker 3: Eagles are celebrating their Lombardi and they were very busy

426
00:17:30,628 --> 00:17:32,868
Speaker 3: to sign some long term guys of their defense. On

427
00:17:32,908 --> 00:17:35,348
Speaker 3: the back end of that, however, they also lost some

428
00:17:35,428 --> 00:17:38,028
Speaker 3: main characters to this team. Ian Rappaport and Tom Peliser

429
00:17:38,108 --> 00:17:39,988
Speaker 3: are insiders today, very busy.

430
00:17:39,748 --> 00:17:40,268
Speaker 4: These guys.

431
00:17:40,548 --> 00:17:42,988
Speaker 3: I'll start with you rap sheet the Eagles, what moves that.

432
00:17:43,028 --> 00:17:45,348
Speaker 4: They make and what else does their division look like.

433
00:17:45,828 --> 00:17:48,948
Speaker 6: Well, let's talk about Josh Sweat, the star pass rusher

434
00:17:48,988 --> 00:17:50,628
Speaker 6: for the Philadelphia Eagles. But I think a lot of

435
00:17:50,628 --> 00:17:53,188
Speaker 6: people thought maybe these Super Bowl MVP, just because of

436
00:17:53,228 --> 00:17:56,068
Speaker 6: how disruptive he is, he is signing not back with

437
00:17:56,108 --> 00:17:58,988
Speaker 6: the pladelph philadelphih egles think they knew that this was

438
00:17:59,028 --> 00:18:00,988
Speaker 6: not going to happen. He agrees to terms any four year,

439
00:18:01,068 --> 00:18:05,188
Speaker 6: seventy six point four million dollar contract with the Arizona Cardinals.

440
00:18:05,708 --> 00:18:08,628
Speaker 6: Jonathan Gannon, of course, is very familiar with Joshua from

441
00:18:08,628 --> 00:18:10,628
Speaker 6: his time in Philly. This one makes a lot of sense.

442
00:18:10,788 --> 00:18:14,348
Speaker 6: Forty one million dollars guaranteed. They also lost Milton Williams,

443
00:18:14,348 --> 00:18:17,028
Speaker 6: one of the studs of their defense right in the middle,

444
00:18:17,348 --> 00:18:19,708
Speaker 6: big time player Tom He went to the New England

445
00:18:19,748 --> 00:18:23,028
Speaker 6: Patriots for more than one hundred million dollar contract. When

446
00:18:23,028 --> 00:18:26,828
Speaker 6: you're Philadelphia, of contraction priorities everywhere, you have so many

447
00:18:26,828 --> 00:18:29,948
Speaker 6: of your really, really good players under huge contracts. This

448
00:18:30,108 --> 00:18:32,668
Speaker 6: is just the reality. Now it's on Howie Roseman and

449
00:18:32,748 --> 00:18:35,268
Speaker 6: the rest of personnel staff to draft and replace some

450
00:18:35,308 --> 00:18:36,148
Speaker 6: of the guys they lost.

451
00:18:36,428 --> 00:18:39,188
Speaker 8: Meanwhile, I and everybody else in the NFC, in particularly

452
00:18:39,268 --> 00:18:41,948
Speaker 8: the NFC East, playing catchup right now with the Eagles.

453
00:18:42,308 --> 00:18:46,108
Speaker 8: The Commanders continued to be extremely aggressive. They pulled off

454
00:18:46,148 --> 00:18:49,988
Speaker 8: the blockbuster trade on the first day of free agency,

455
00:18:50,028 --> 00:18:54,868
Speaker 8: acquiring left tackle Laramie Tunsel from the Houston Texans along

456
00:18:54,908 --> 00:18:57,388
Speaker 8: with a fourth round pick in exchange.

457
00:18:56,868 --> 00:18:59,068
Speaker 10: For I'm going to count this up for you, twenty

458
00:18:59,108 --> 00:19:02,388
Speaker 10: twenty five and twenty twenty five third and seventh rounders,

459
00:19:02,388 --> 00:19:05,388
Speaker 10: a twenty twenty six second rounder, and a twenty twenty

460
00:19:05,388 --> 00:19:07,748
Speaker 10: six to fourth rounder. I was looking back at this

461
00:19:07,788 --> 00:19:10,908
Speaker 10: because remember they'll trade a fifth for Deebo Samuel. Back

462
00:19:10,988 --> 00:19:14,108
Speaker 10: during the season, they traded third, fourth, and future sixth

463
00:19:14,228 --> 00:19:17,548
Speaker 10: round picks for Marshawn Latimore somehow, and I literally have

464
00:19:17,628 --> 00:19:19,508
Speaker 10: just been like pulling this together and asking to make

465
00:19:19,508 --> 00:19:21,668
Speaker 10: sure I'm right. They still have five picks in this

466
00:19:21,748 --> 00:19:24,308
Speaker 10: year's craft. They have their first and second rounders among

467
00:19:24,348 --> 00:19:26,508
Speaker 10: others here. I remember they had the Johan Dotson trade,

468
00:19:26,548 --> 00:19:28,388
Speaker 10: they had the John Ridgeway trade.

469
00:19:28,108 --> 00:19:30,148
Speaker 8: So they've been able to get some back here. But

470
00:19:30,268 --> 00:19:33,708
Speaker 8: this is very much an aggressive Commander's front office. You've

471
00:19:33,708 --> 00:19:36,428
Speaker 8: got Josh Harris and Bob Myers who come from the

472
00:19:36,428 --> 00:19:39,068
Speaker 8: basketball world, as well as Adam Peters, who came from

473
00:19:39,068 --> 00:19:41,228
Speaker 8: a forty nine Ers team that has never been shy

474
00:19:41,228 --> 00:19:44,828
Speaker 8: about trading draft capital for veteran players. The fact that

475
00:19:44,868 --> 00:19:46,868
Speaker 8: they're kind of pushing their chips in and saying, hey,

476
00:19:46,908 --> 00:19:48,988
Speaker 8: we got a young quarterback right now is on a

477
00:19:49,068 --> 00:19:52,028
Speaker 8: rookie deal, cost controlled. We're going to max out what

478
00:19:52,108 --> 00:19:53,948
Speaker 8: we've got and try to put veteran plays around them

479
00:19:54,028 --> 00:19:57,108
Speaker 8: and win right now. That's the type of mentality they're

480
00:19:57,148 --> 00:19:59,068
Speaker 8: taking here, in frankly, with how good the egos look

481
00:19:59,108 --> 00:20:01,788
Speaker 8: down the stretch here, Jamie, that's probably a plan you're

482
00:20:01,788 --> 00:20:03,508
Speaker 8: going to need. Be bold or go home.

483
00:20:03,668 --> 00:20:06,268
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's a really good point. You too, appreciate it

484
00:20:06,308 --> 00:20:08,788
Speaker 3: so much. And then a five time NBA champion likes

485
00:20:08,828 --> 00:20:10,308
Speaker 3: to chime in, Magic Johnson and.

486
00:20:10,268 --> 00:20:12,388
Speaker 4: His involvement in this. He loves the move.

487
00:20:12,508 --> 00:20:16,068
Speaker 3: The Commander's minority owner said yesterday on x I'm so

488
00:20:16,188 --> 00:20:18,108
Speaker 3: happy to hear that we have traded for Laramie Tunsel

489
00:20:18,148 --> 00:20:20,588
Speaker 3: as TP just reference one of the best left tackles

490
00:20:20,628 --> 00:20:22,668
Speaker 3: in the NFL. We're going to help protect our young

491
00:20:22,708 --> 00:20:24,188
Speaker 3: superstar quarterback, jam Daniels.

492
00:20:24,228 --> 00:20:24,908
Speaker 4: Super job.

493
00:20:25,188 --> 00:20:28,388
Speaker 3: That's an ultimate compliment from one of your owners to

494
00:20:28,548 --> 00:20:29,508
Speaker 3: Adam Peters.

495
00:20:30,068 --> 00:20:32,148
Speaker 4: Let's open this up to the table and talk about

496
00:20:32,148 --> 00:20:33,748
Speaker 4: the Commanders closing.

497
00:20:33,348 --> 00:20:35,148
Speaker 3: The gap, and Peter, you referenced it at the end

498
00:20:35,188 --> 00:20:38,868
Speaker 3: of last segment, focusing laser focus on the Eagles and

499
00:20:38,908 --> 00:20:41,668
Speaker 3: making sure they catch them because they have a very

500
00:20:41,708 --> 00:20:44,828
Speaker 3: specific time clock. Here Peter with a young talented quarterback.

501
00:20:46,068 --> 00:20:47,948
Speaker 5: Yeah, look, he's on a rookie contract. We're already in

502
00:20:47,948 --> 00:20:50,548
Speaker 5: a year two. You have money to spend, go spend

503
00:20:50,548 --> 00:20:52,428
Speaker 5: it now and get some veteran guys.

504
00:20:52,708 --> 00:20:53,148
Speaker 2: I love it.

505
00:20:53,468 --> 00:20:56,788
Speaker 5: From the offensive side of the ball. This is an

506
00:20:56,908 --> 00:20:59,268
Speaker 5: unbelievable upgrade. Laramie Tunzel is one of the best players

507
00:20:59,308 --> 00:21:00,588
Speaker 5: in football, and they get them.

508
00:21:00,588 --> 00:21:01,228
Speaker 2: And they do so.

509
00:21:01,188 --> 00:21:03,188
Speaker 5: Because the Texans are like, we're looking at our books

510
00:21:03,468 --> 00:21:05,268
Speaker 5: and we're gonna have to pay st out soon and

511
00:21:05,348 --> 00:21:08,028
Speaker 5: he's entering in the latter part of his career. But

512
00:21:08,028 --> 00:21:10,908
Speaker 5: for the for the Commanders, it's we have the guy

513
00:21:10,948 --> 00:21:12,828
Speaker 5: in a second year of his contract and we'll take

514
00:21:12,868 --> 00:21:14,828
Speaker 5: the Laramie tons of that left tackle and.

515
00:21:14,788 --> 00:21:17,708
Speaker 2: Then Deebo Samuel. A lot has been made about what

516
00:21:17,748 --> 00:21:19,428
Speaker 2: Deebo was last year. Is he overweight?

517
00:21:19,508 --> 00:21:19,708
Speaker 7: Is he not?

518
00:21:19,708 --> 00:21:20,628
Speaker 2: Overyway, I'll tell you this.

519
00:21:20,988 --> 00:21:24,588
Speaker 5: Contract year and Cliff Kingsbury's offense, which was the number

520
00:21:24,628 --> 00:21:27,508
Speaker 5: one offense and throwing wide receiver screens last year. You

521
00:21:27,548 --> 00:21:29,828
Speaker 5: better believe you're getting a motivated Deebo samuelf he doesn't

522
00:21:29,828 --> 00:21:32,028
Speaker 5: come to camp in shape, it might be all you

523
00:21:32,148 --> 00:21:34,308
Speaker 5: got and we might be all she wrote for Debo

524
00:21:34,388 --> 00:21:35,948
Speaker 5: say to get that podcast equipment.

525
00:21:36,068 --> 00:21:39,068
Speaker 2: Let's took the podcasts away and then let's get it going.

526
00:21:39,108 --> 00:21:40,388
Speaker 2: And I think there was a little bit too much

527
00:21:40,428 --> 00:21:41,508
Speaker 2: pots podcast.

528
00:21:41,828 --> 00:21:44,748
Speaker 5: I will say this, Commanders have a ton of holes

529
00:21:44,748 --> 00:21:46,628
Speaker 5: on defense. The last time I watched them, they give

530
00:21:46,708 --> 00:21:50,028
Speaker 5: up fifty five points and seven rushing touchdowns. Love Bobby

531
00:21:50,028 --> 00:21:51,788
Speaker 5: Wagner and it's great to have him back, but like

532
00:21:52,188 --> 00:21:55,108
Speaker 5: these are offensive moves, the offensive set, Cliff Kingsbury is

533
00:21:55,148 --> 00:21:57,868
Speaker 5: going to be a kid in a candy store. I

534
00:21:57,908 --> 00:22:00,708
Speaker 5: don't know if they closed the gap on defense. I'm

535
00:22:00,708 --> 00:22:03,348
Speaker 5: not sure losing Jonathan Allen helps them in any single

536
00:22:03,388 --> 00:22:05,748
Speaker 5: way doing they have to do when you're gonna go

537
00:22:05,828 --> 00:22:09,068
Speaker 5: up against an Eagles team that had seven rushing touchdowns

538
00:22:09,068 --> 00:22:10,948
Speaker 5: and just shove the ball down your throat all last year.

539
00:22:10,988 --> 00:22:13,668
Speaker 2: So we're the NFL. We like points. We're here, La

540
00:22:13,708 --> 00:22:14,588
Speaker 2: la la. It's all great.

541
00:22:14,628 --> 00:22:16,468
Speaker 5: The Commanders are awesome, but they also have to stop

542
00:22:16,508 --> 00:22:17,868
Speaker 5: the Eagles too, and I'm not sure if they did

543
00:22:17,868 --> 00:22:18,868
Speaker 5: anything to really help that.

544
00:22:19,188 --> 00:22:21,068
Speaker 9: And Peter, I'm right there with you, because yes, it's

545
00:22:21,108 --> 00:22:23,988
Speaker 9: free agent frenzy. We love this time of year, bunch

546
00:22:23,988 --> 00:22:27,548
Speaker 9: of exciting signings that we tend to forget the earlier extensions.

547
00:22:27,588 --> 00:22:29,588
Speaker 9: And as long as number twenty six is wearing a

548
00:22:29,588 --> 00:22:32,268
Speaker 9: Philadelphia Eagles uniform, that gap will remain.

549
00:22:32,348 --> 00:22:33,988
Speaker 7: You keep mentioning seven touchdowns in that.

550
00:22:33,988 --> 00:22:36,868
Speaker 9: Final matchup, how about just Saquon Barkley in his three

551
00:22:36,908 --> 00:22:40,028
Speaker 9: matchups against the Commanders four hundred and fourteen rushing yards,

552
00:22:40,388 --> 00:22:45,308
Speaker 9: seven touchdowns in three matchups. Yes, I love the Javon

553
00:22:45,388 --> 00:22:50,428
Speaker 9: kinloss signing. I love retaining future Hall of Famer Bobby Wagner.

554
00:22:50,828 --> 00:22:51,548
Speaker 7: That's not enough.

555
00:22:52,068 --> 00:22:52,788
Speaker 2: It's not enough.

556
00:22:53,188 --> 00:22:55,708
Speaker 9: It's going to take a whole lot more to stop

557
00:22:55,748 --> 00:22:57,868
Speaker 9: that man right there. So while I sit here drooling

558
00:22:57,908 --> 00:23:00,988
Speaker 9: over the idea of Jaden Daniels back there with Deebo,

559
00:23:01,068 --> 00:23:04,148
Speaker 9: Samuel to is right, b Rob two was left. A

560
00:23:04,188 --> 00:23:07,268
Speaker 9: line nightmare, a safety's nightmare. You don't know where the

561
00:23:07,268 --> 00:23:09,588
Speaker 9: ball's going, play actions go lower, VI, your option, all

562
00:23:09,628 --> 00:23:12,388
Speaker 9: kind of stuff. Clif Kingsbury is gonna go crazy as

563
00:23:12,388 --> 00:23:15,508
Speaker 9: long as Saquon Barkley is wearing that Philly uniform, there

564
00:23:15,548 --> 00:23:16,428
Speaker 9: will be a gap.

565
00:23:17,988 --> 00:23:20,708
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I'm I'm sitting there trying to do the

566
00:23:20,748 --> 00:23:21,508
Speaker 1: same thing you're doing.

567
00:23:22,548 --> 00:23:24,148
Speaker 2: This happens to the Super Bowl champs.

568
00:23:24,468 --> 00:23:26,388
Speaker 1: We sit there and we do this segment about the

569
00:23:26,428 --> 00:23:28,748
Speaker 1: gaps closed, and they come back down to Earth and

570
00:23:29,068 --> 00:23:32,068
Speaker 1: they lost some very good players, they lost their offensive coordinator,

571
00:23:32,068 --> 00:23:34,108
Speaker 1: and so now you just pick them apart like buzzards,

572
00:23:34,348 --> 00:23:37,228
Speaker 1: I come back to the same bedrock that you guys did.

573
00:23:37,268 --> 00:23:39,668
Speaker 1: It's like I like Washington too. There's so much to like.

574
00:23:39,748 --> 00:23:42,468
Speaker 1: Nobody likes DQ more than this show. Jane Daniels, on

575
00:23:42,508 --> 00:23:44,788
Speaker 1: and on and on, like you have to tackle. It's

576
00:23:44,788 --> 00:23:47,868
Speaker 1: still tackle football. Like here's here's my impression of Saquon

577
00:23:47,908 --> 00:23:53,948
Speaker 1: Barkley against the Commanders. Ready, yeah, and then back again. Yeah,

578
00:23:54,148 --> 00:23:55,788
Speaker 1: just anything he wanted to do. And then I'll do

579
00:23:55,828 --> 00:23:59,188
Speaker 1: a backflip across the screen. Anything he wanted to do,

580
00:23:59,628 --> 00:24:02,428
Speaker 1: over and over and over. And he did the same

581
00:24:02,468 --> 00:24:05,788
Speaker 1: thing to the Rams. It's just like, until we address that,

582
00:24:06,068 --> 00:24:07,948
Speaker 1: I can't sit here and say, yeah, I don't know,

583
00:24:07,988 --> 00:24:10,388
Speaker 1: it's up for grabs. Commanders are fun, They're ascending. I'm

584
00:24:10,388 --> 00:24:12,988
Speaker 1: not going to sit here. Twenty seconds after the Eagles

585
00:24:13,028 --> 00:24:15,108
Speaker 1: bleue out the Chiefs in the Super Bowl and say

586
00:24:15,148 --> 00:24:16,108
Speaker 1: that they're giving up the East.

587
00:24:16,108 --> 00:24:16,708
Speaker 2: Now, I won't do.

588
00:24:16,668 --> 00:24:19,868
Speaker 3: It in a pity bump for television. At least the

589
00:24:19,908 --> 00:24:22,268
Speaker 3: Commanders are that second team. We're talking about the division

590
00:24:22,308 --> 00:24:26,308
Speaker 3: that have made the most moves in with the Eagles

591
00:24:26,308 --> 00:24:28,028
Speaker 3: because we're not looking at the Dallas Cowboys right now,

592
00:24:28,068 --> 00:24:29,428
Speaker 3: and we're still trying to figure out what's going on

593
00:24:29,468 --> 00:24:32,068
Speaker 3: with the Giants. So NFC East, You're fascinating and we

594
00:24:32,148 --> 00:24:37,028
Speaker 3: love you just like we love free agency frenzy. It's

595
00:24:37,068 --> 00:24:39,468
Speaker 3: like eating tacos on a Monday or posting a throwback

596
00:24:39,508 --> 00:24:42,348
Speaker 3: photo of yourself on any other day except for Thursday. Yes,

597
00:24:42,388 --> 00:24:44,468
Speaker 3: our whiteboards are out. No, it is not Wednesday. It

598
00:24:44,548 --> 00:24:46,228
Speaker 3: is Tuesday, and we're going to play a little game

599
00:24:46,308 --> 00:24:47,988
Speaker 3: called one word Whiteboard.

600
00:24:48,028 --> 00:24:49,068
Speaker 4: I have a team.

601
00:24:48,868 --> 00:24:51,828
Speaker 3: Written on the other side of my whiteboard. Gentlemen, when

602
00:24:51,868 --> 00:24:54,668
Speaker 3: I show you this team name, you will write one

603
00:24:54,708 --> 00:24:57,308
Speaker 3: word on your board to describe how you feel about them.

604
00:24:57,548 --> 00:25:01,748
Speaker 3: After day one of free agency, are you already, brock first.

605
00:25:01,548 --> 00:25:03,388
Speaker 4: Time whiteboard user going out board?

606
00:25:03,508 --> 00:25:03,748
Speaker 7: Ready?

607
00:25:03,788 --> 00:25:04,468
Speaker 9: All right? Oh?

608
00:25:05,228 --> 00:25:07,588
Speaker 4: This is your first team, The New England Patriots.

609
00:25:07,628 --> 00:25:10,188
Speaker 3: After seeing everything they did under their new head coach

610
00:25:10,268 --> 00:25:12,708
Speaker 3: Mike Rabel. Peter, what is your one word that you

611
00:25:12,708 --> 00:25:14,668
Speaker 3: will use to describe the Patriots?

612
00:25:15,468 --> 00:25:18,148
Speaker 2: Same kind of word I would describe Vrabel. They're tough.

613
00:25:18,748 --> 00:25:19,628
Speaker 2: There's a tough team.

614
00:25:19,708 --> 00:25:23,668
Speaker 5: Now you add in big bodies like Milton Williams underneath,

615
00:25:23,668 --> 00:25:25,548
Speaker 5: and then you add in Mac Collins, who's a tough

616
00:25:25,548 --> 00:25:28,188
Speaker 5: wide receiver. And I love the fact that you've got

617
00:25:28,188 --> 00:25:29,748
Speaker 5: Milton next to Barmore, but.

618
00:25:29,748 --> 00:25:30,628
Speaker 2: Even Carlton Davis.

619
00:25:30,668 --> 00:25:33,108
Speaker 5: These they are tough, big physical players. I see a

620
00:25:33,108 --> 00:25:36,348
Speaker 5: lot of words tough. This is every one of these players.

621
00:25:36,428 --> 00:25:38,708
Speaker 5: You would describe them as tough. Morgan Moses is a

622
00:25:38,708 --> 00:25:40,788
Speaker 5: thirty four year old veteran who still had a high

623
00:25:40,868 --> 00:25:41,388
Speaker 5: market here.

624
00:25:41,748 --> 00:25:43,388
Speaker 2: Roberts Bulane tough.

625
00:25:43,588 --> 00:25:47,348
Speaker 5: Taki Taki, no tough, no longer on the Browns.

626
00:25:47,388 --> 00:25:50,188
Speaker 2: He's tough, tough. You know what I'm saying. They're tough.

627
00:25:50,228 --> 00:25:51,068
Speaker 2: I think this is tough.

628
00:25:51,828 --> 00:25:53,548
Speaker 9: I like the word tough, So I'm gonna have a

629
00:25:53,588 --> 00:25:56,588
Speaker 9: synonym for tough, Vrabel, because you just nailed it.

630
00:25:56,628 --> 00:25:58,188
Speaker 7: These are Vrabels guys.

631
00:25:58,268 --> 00:26:00,468
Speaker 9: Jamie nailed it earlier when she said he's building this

632
00:26:00,508 --> 00:26:02,148
Speaker 9: team the way that he wants to build it, the

633
00:26:02,148 --> 00:26:04,828
Speaker 9: way he built it in Tennessee. Of Rabel to me

634
00:26:04,868 --> 00:26:08,508
Speaker 9: as a guy who maybe a casual football watcher. They

635
00:26:08,628 --> 00:26:11,228
Speaker 9: know of Harold Landry, they know of Carlton Davis. But

636
00:26:11,268 --> 00:26:13,428
Speaker 9: someone who watches ball. Nos, no, no, no, that's a dog

637
00:26:13,548 --> 00:26:15,148
Speaker 9: right there, and that is a Rabel guy to me.

638
00:26:15,268 --> 00:26:18,668
Speaker 9: Not necessarily glitz, not glamour, but day one you will

639
00:26:18,708 --> 00:26:19,828
Speaker 9: feel their presence.

640
00:26:21,868 --> 00:26:24,508
Speaker 1: Listen, this is sometimes you go third and sometimes you

641
00:26:24,548 --> 00:26:26,828
Speaker 1: get your clean slate and say anything you want, and

642
00:26:26,828 --> 00:26:28,388
Speaker 1: sometimes you have the same exact answer.

643
00:26:28,428 --> 00:26:31,788
Speaker 2: I repurposed it though I wrote the word chew because

644
00:26:31,788 --> 00:26:32,268
Speaker 2: when you have.

645
00:26:32,268 --> 00:26:35,228
Speaker 1: These type of players, you're Mike Babel, you know, and

646
00:26:36,388 --> 00:26:40,148
Speaker 1: start cooking ass. Listen, I stay away from smoke withs

647
00:26:40,148 --> 00:26:43,868
Speaker 1: Tobacco kids. However, Robert Splane, Bobby's Blaine, he should wear

648
00:26:43,988 --> 00:26:44,508
Speaker 1: number fifty.

649
00:26:44,548 --> 00:26:47,788
Speaker 2: He should wear the same number as Rabel. It's the

650
00:26:47,868 --> 00:26:49,828
Speaker 2: same dude. And you know what, we'll.

651
00:26:49,668 --> 00:26:51,588
Speaker 1: Start working him in on the goal line package too,

652
00:26:51,628 --> 00:26:53,148
Speaker 1: and all he catches his touchdowns.

653
00:26:53,348 --> 00:26:55,668
Speaker 2: I thought the same thing you at home thought.

654
00:26:55,668 --> 00:26:57,828
Speaker 1: The same thing is that Rabel is building this in

655
00:26:57,908 --> 00:27:01,268
Speaker 1: his image, not his own physically, but of what he's done.

656
00:27:01,068 --> 00:27:03,748
Speaker 2: In his entire career. Pack one in or don't and

657
00:27:03,788 --> 00:27:05,468
Speaker 2: go to work. Kick mask. That's my words.

658
00:27:05,468 --> 00:27:08,348
Speaker 3: Okay, paper cup guys or dirty water bottle guys.

659
00:27:08,468 --> 00:27:10,908
Speaker 4: Is like, that's the qualify ass all right.

660
00:27:10,828 --> 00:27:12,068
Speaker 2: Kyle Paul guys we call them.

661
00:27:12,148 --> 00:27:15,988
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kyle, you've said this before. How when you look

662
00:27:15,988 --> 00:27:18,108
Speaker 3: at the future of this team that you don't want

663
00:27:18,148 --> 00:27:20,188
Speaker 3: to look back at the eighties and how great they were.

664
00:27:20,268 --> 00:27:22,988
Speaker 3: So instead of saying do Bears, I'm going the Bears.

665
00:27:23,068 --> 00:27:26,108
Speaker 3: The Chicago Bears, not doll Bears. So not only were

666
00:27:26,108 --> 00:27:28,188
Speaker 3: they active and free agency with Ryan Poles, but they

667
00:27:28,188 --> 00:27:30,668
Speaker 3: got some trades done along the way. Peter, you're one

668
00:27:30,668 --> 00:27:32,588
Speaker 3: word for the Chicago Bears.

669
00:27:33,828 --> 00:27:35,068
Speaker 2: Better. They're a better team.

670
00:27:35,348 --> 00:27:37,828
Speaker 5: You can't deny that they have an offensive head coach

671
00:27:37,908 --> 00:27:39,148
Speaker 5: to go with their quarterback.

672
00:27:39,188 --> 00:27:40,508
Speaker 2: They now have guys in the trenches.

673
00:27:40,548 --> 00:27:42,988
Speaker 5: I love Jonah Jackson coming from the Rams, and of

674
00:27:42,988 --> 00:27:45,508
Speaker 5: course before that the Lions, and I love the fact

675
00:27:45,508 --> 00:27:47,068
Speaker 5: they got Grady Jarrett and Joe Toney.

676
00:27:47,308 --> 00:27:50,108
Speaker 2: They are a better team objectively. Now are they contending

677
00:27:50,148 --> 00:27:51,068
Speaker 2: for a Super Bowl? I don't know.

678
00:27:51,388 --> 00:27:53,428
Speaker 5: They might be a sexy pick for some, but they

679
00:27:53,428 --> 00:27:55,588
Speaker 5: are a better team today than they were yesterday at

680
00:27:55,588 --> 00:27:55,948
Speaker 5: this time.

681
00:27:55,988 --> 00:27:57,948
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna say better security.

682
00:27:58,228 --> 00:28:00,828
Speaker 9: Caleb Boys was running for his life all season long.

683
00:28:00,908 --> 00:28:03,468
Speaker 9: The fact that he's still healthy and upright is a miracle.

684
00:28:03,668 --> 00:28:06,068
Speaker 9: Ben Jonson said, as if I want to have fun,

685
00:28:06,268 --> 00:28:08,348
Speaker 9: I need security for my quarterback.

686
00:28:08,508 --> 00:28:10,828
Speaker 7: He needs to be comfortable. He needs to be confident.

687
00:28:10,908 --> 00:28:14,428
Speaker 9: We're gonna run the football, and that starts with security.

688
00:28:14,508 --> 00:28:16,988
Speaker 9: Kata Williams has five bouncers around him wherever he wants

689
00:28:17,028 --> 00:28:17,228
Speaker 9: to go.

690
00:28:17,348 --> 00:28:18,188
Speaker 7: He's feeling safe.

691
00:28:19,708 --> 00:28:21,588
Speaker 1: I like it, and Jamie, I like the point that

692
00:28:21,628 --> 00:28:25,908
Speaker 1: you started the presentation with. As a native Chicago Land guy,

693
00:28:26,308 --> 00:28:27,428
Speaker 1: I don't like the Bears.

694
00:28:27,468 --> 00:28:29,508
Speaker 2: I'm done with it. I loved it in the nineties.

695
00:28:29,548 --> 00:28:32,388
Speaker 1: And due respect to Robert Smigal and George Went and

696
00:28:32,468 --> 00:28:34,908
Speaker 1: Mike Myers and Chris Farley and the SNL sketch that

697
00:28:34,948 --> 00:28:38,308
Speaker 1: coined it, doub Bears is something who like, people aren't

698
00:28:38,308 --> 00:28:40,548
Speaker 1: from Chicago say about the Bears. And I know it's

699
00:28:40,548 --> 00:28:42,948
Speaker 1: a fun nickname, I don't use it myself. And the

700
00:28:42,988 --> 00:28:44,908
Speaker 1: fact that it goes back to the past and this

701
00:28:44,988 --> 00:28:46,828
Speaker 1: whole team is going to the future. How are they

702
00:28:46,868 --> 00:28:49,108
Speaker 1: going to the future. I have never seen this word

703
00:28:49,148 --> 00:28:50,748
Speaker 1: on social media or television.

704
00:28:50,788 --> 00:28:52,028
Speaker 2: More than I saw it yesterday.

705
00:28:52,428 --> 00:28:55,708
Speaker 1: Trenches, trenches, trenches, trenches, trenches.

706
00:28:55,628 --> 00:28:57,028
Speaker 2: So many trenches.

707
00:28:57,428 --> 00:29:00,788
Speaker 1: The Bears are filling all of the trenches. You could

708
00:29:00,868 --> 00:29:04,828
Speaker 1: not describe them yesterday without using the word trenches. Big,

709
00:29:04,868 --> 00:29:07,228
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson, we want shock at all. We want our

710
00:29:07,388 --> 00:29:10,348
Speaker 1: Jamiir Gibbs. I'm on wrestling Brown. They already have a

711
00:29:10,348 --> 00:29:15,108
Speaker 1: couple of those guys. They want guards, defensive tackles. The

712
00:29:15,148 --> 00:29:17,668
Speaker 1: Bears have better guard play than the Bulls have had

713
00:29:17,668 --> 00:29:18,388
Speaker 1: in thirty years.

714
00:29:18,428 --> 00:29:20,228
Speaker 2: Believe me, based on yesterday.

715
00:29:20,308 --> 00:29:25,228
Speaker 1: Why because the trenches, trenches, trenches, trenches, trenches, that's the

716
00:29:25,268 --> 00:29:26,308
Speaker 1: word a thousand times.

717
00:29:26,588 --> 00:29:29,748
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, Kyle, you really just right?

718
00:29:29,868 --> 00:29:30,228
Speaker 7: I like.

719
00:29:31,828 --> 00:29:37,348
Speaker 2: It's been a minute. Zach Lavine, Ben Gordon, geez you too.

720
00:29:37,388 --> 00:29:39,508
Speaker 3: All right, I'm trying to do art here because I

721
00:29:39,548 --> 00:29:42,028
Speaker 3: know the brand. I'm going with the brand. Okay, ready, guy,

722
00:29:42,108 --> 00:29:44,508
Speaker 3: for your ex assignment. Here's your brand. What are you

723
00:29:44,588 --> 00:29:46,748
Speaker 3: doing here, Big the Steeler?

724
00:29:46,828 --> 00:29:47,348
Speaker 4: Is that right?

725
00:29:47,548 --> 00:29:48,468
Speaker 2: Oh cool? All right?

726
00:29:48,748 --> 00:29:50,068
Speaker 4: Yeah, that matches all right here.

727
00:29:50,188 --> 00:29:52,668
Speaker 3: The Steelers made one of the biggest splashes with their

728
00:29:52,668 --> 00:29:56,148
Speaker 3: additional DK Metcalf, but in general, not knowing who's throwing

729
00:29:56,228 --> 00:30:00,948
Speaker 3: him the ball, Peter, how are we feeling about the Steelers.

730
00:30:01,948 --> 00:30:05,708
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna say wild, and it's I just they

731
00:30:05,708 --> 00:30:08,188
Speaker 5: have DK Metcalf and George Pickens and no quarterback at

732
00:30:08,188 --> 00:30:10,908
Speaker 5: the moment, So just after day one, it's just my

733
00:30:10,948 --> 00:30:13,668
Speaker 5: head is spinning. Now, if Aaron Rodgers gets added to

734
00:30:13,668 --> 00:30:16,388
Speaker 5: the mix, I want not only hard knocks, but I

735
00:30:16,428 --> 00:30:19,428
Speaker 5: want Amazon to do in all access. I want Netflix

736
00:30:19,468 --> 00:30:21,988
Speaker 5: to bring in their cameras. I want NFL films to

737
00:30:22,028 --> 00:30:24,588
Speaker 5: just be dedicated to that wide receivers room when it's

738
00:30:24,628 --> 00:30:27,188
Speaker 5: Pickins and Metcalf and Aaron Rodgers coming in there to

739
00:30:27,268 --> 00:30:29,188
Speaker 5: chat with them about how we're both going to get

740
00:30:29,188 --> 00:30:30,668
Speaker 5: the ball and everything's going to be okay.

741
00:30:31,788 --> 00:30:33,828
Speaker 2: Wild, wild times to be a Steelers fan.

742
00:30:33,868 --> 00:30:36,548
Speaker 5: The fact that they're hanging around and waiting to see

743
00:30:36,708 --> 00:30:40,588
Speaker 5: who is going to throw these two explosive and combustible

744
00:30:40,628 --> 00:30:41,588
Speaker 5: wide receivers the.

745
00:30:41,548 --> 00:30:43,548
Speaker 6: Ball and it's already mid March.

746
00:30:43,988 --> 00:30:44,788
Speaker 2: This is fascinating.

747
00:30:44,828 --> 00:30:47,388
Speaker 5: Let's see if Rodgers be signed there today or it's

748
00:30:47,428 --> 00:30:48,508
Speaker 5: option BCD.

749
00:30:48,668 --> 00:30:49,948
Speaker 2: I don't know, wild.

750
00:30:50,268 --> 00:30:53,668
Speaker 9: Keystone, because that's what they're missing. And you could build

751
00:30:53,668 --> 00:30:58,068
Speaker 9: the lavish mansion that looks beautiful and gorgeous if I told.

752
00:30:57,828 --> 00:30:59,148
Speaker 7: You there's no keystone there.

753
00:30:59,188 --> 00:31:01,548
Speaker 9: You're not walking in there, and until they find that quarterback,

754
00:31:01,588 --> 00:31:04,628
Speaker 9: like Peter was just talking about, without that keystone, it's

755
00:31:04,628 --> 00:31:08,028
Speaker 9: hard to buy in. Everything looks wonderful for any quarterback

756
00:31:08,028 --> 00:31:11,228
Speaker 9: to walk in there and immediately succeed, but until it happens,

757
00:31:11,268 --> 00:31:12,268
Speaker 9: it's a mansion without a.

758
00:31:12,308 --> 00:31:14,268
Speaker 3: Keyso they don't have a driveway, they don't have a door.

759
00:31:14,468 --> 00:31:18,548
Speaker 1: There's a lot of things, Kyle, they got a lot,

760
00:31:18,708 --> 00:31:21,388
Speaker 1: they just don't have the centerpiece. Which is why I'm

761
00:31:21,428 --> 00:31:23,348
Speaker 1: gonna go throw back in this one. You see what

762
00:31:23,388 --> 00:31:26,948
Speaker 1: this says right here, It says Voltron Vultron back in

763
00:31:26,988 --> 00:31:30,268
Speaker 1: the day with the sword as the tee because the

764
00:31:30,388 --> 00:31:33,428
Speaker 1: Vultron head, if you know what it's all about, was

765
00:31:33,588 --> 00:31:37,668
Speaker 1: the black Lion. Vultron is not Vultron until the head

766
00:31:37,788 --> 00:31:42,428
Speaker 1: completes it. You got legs, arms, torso everything you need

767
00:31:42,468 --> 00:31:45,308
Speaker 1: to have the head. This is the most important story

768
00:31:45,308 --> 00:31:47,468
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now. Due respect, I think it's

769
00:31:47,468 --> 00:31:49,548
Speaker 1: more important than who the Giants quarterback is, who the

770
00:31:49,628 --> 00:31:50,708
Speaker 1: Vikings quarterback is.

771
00:31:50,868 --> 00:31:52,588
Speaker 2: The number one question in what we.

772
00:31:52,628 --> 00:31:55,428
Speaker 1: Do for a living is who is the Steelers quarterback

773
00:31:55,508 --> 00:31:58,588
Speaker 1: going to be? Because you know next year you have

774
00:31:58,588 --> 00:32:00,748
Speaker 1: two choices. They're gonna win nine games or they're gonna

775
00:32:00,788 --> 00:32:02,588
Speaker 1: win ten. Take your pick. It will not be any

776
00:32:02,588 --> 00:32:05,068
Speaker 1: other number. Who's to a quarterback for doing I think

777
00:32:05,068 --> 00:32:06,628
Speaker 1: it's the head of voltront and I don't know who

778
00:32:06,708 --> 00:32:07,228
Speaker 1: it is yet.

779
00:32:07,348 --> 00:32:09,868
Speaker 2: One word to describe the forty.

780
00:32:09,668 --> 00:32:14,828
Speaker 5: Nine ers fiscally responsible and VOLTI time where the markets

781
00:32:14,908 --> 00:32:15,348
Speaker 5: are not.

782
00:32:15,668 --> 00:32:21,228
Speaker 2: Stable, Go Niners when everyone else is spending money. And

783
00:32:21,308 --> 00:32:23,068
Speaker 2: I just saw what Milton Williams is.

784
00:32:23,028 --> 00:32:25,908
Speaker 5: Guaranteed money is with the Patriots, gonna blow your socks off.

785
00:32:25,948 --> 00:32:27,468
Speaker 5: I'm sure the insiders will have it in a couple

786
00:32:27,508 --> 00:32:29,188
Speaker 5: of minutes, but I got the numbers on the contract.

787
00:32:29,188 --> 00:32:31,308
Speaker 2: It's in. It's wild. Milton william is going to be the.

788
00:32:31,348 --> 00:32:34,788
Speaker 5: Richest defensive tackle in the history of the sport. Fiscally

789
00:32:34,908 --> 00:32:37,588
Speaker 5: responsible in a volatile time where.

790
00:32:37,388 --> 00:32:38,468
Speaker 2: The markets are not sailing.

791
00:32:38,468 --> 00:32:41,028
Speaker 5: We've been talking about the actual Wall Street markets right now.

792
00:32:41,068 --> 00:32:43,988
Speaker 2: Hello, in the Wall Street segment we bit yeah, maybe

793
00:32:44,028 --> 00:32:45,628
Speaker 2: maybe not. I don't know. Let's see this.

794
00:32:45,748 --> 00:32:48,188
Speaker 5: I do adhere to the football world, and I will

795
00:32:48,188 --> 00:32:50,188
Speaker 5: say this, the Niners are going against the grain where

796
00:32:50,188 --> 00:32:51,948
Speaker 5: everyone else is just spending like crazy. They're like, let's

797
00:32:51,948 --> 00:32:53,788
Speaker 5: tighten our belts a little bit. Let's be smart because

798
00:32:53,788 --> 00:32:55,508
Speaker 5: we do have to pay a quarterback and oh yeah,

799
00:32:55,548 --> 00:32:57,628
Speaker 5: by the way, maybe we don't want to just give

800
00:32:57,708 --> 00:33:00,148
Speaker 5: money away every single year and kick the can down

801
00:33:00,148 --> 00:33:00,468
Speaker 5: the road.

802
00:33:00,668 --> 00:33:01,908
Speaker 2: It's a reset and it's.

803
00:33:01,748 --> 00:33:04,348
Speaker 5: Fysically responsible and a volatile time where the markets.

804
00:33:04,028 --> 00:33:04,388
Speaker 2: Are not.

805
00:33:05,828 --> 00:33:09,708
Speaker 9: I'm going with punt because they're punting this free agency.

806
00:33:09,788 --> 00:33:11,948
Speaker 7: They have seven draft picks. That's exciting.

807
00:33:11,988 --> 00:33:13,828
Speaker 9: You're not gonna expect seven rookies to come in here

808
00:33:13,868 --> 00:33:16,428
Speaker 9: and win you a super Bowl. But they've been spending

809
00:33:16,428 --> 00:33:18,468
Speaker 9: a lot of money every single year and that hasn't

810
00:33:18,468 --> 00:33:20,308
Speaker 9: gotten in the Super Bowl either, So credit to them.

811
00:33:20,308 --> 00:33:21,868
Speaker 7: What's the definition of.

812
00:33:21,828 --> 00:33:23,988
Speaker 9: Crazy doing the same thing over and over expecting a

813
00:33:23,988 --> 00:33:26,708
Speaker 9: different result. They're learning and they're gonna say, we're not going.

814
00:33:26,628 --> 00:33:28,708
Speaker 7: To do what we used to do. They're punting for now.

815
00:33:28,748 --> 00:33:30,268
Speaker 7: But punting can lead to winning.

816
00:33:32,068 --> 00:33:33,588
Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, I certainly can.

817
00:33:33,708 --> 00:33:36,708
Speaker 1: I've been pleased to see recently Mike Myers has been around,

818
00:33:36,868 --> 00:33:39,668
Speaker 1: showed up on SNL, He's doing podcasts and stuff. When

819
00:33:39,668 --> 00:33:41,828
Speaker 1: I was probably ten or eleven years old, I learned

820
00:33:41,868 --> 00:33:44,068
Speaker 1: a word from Mike Myers, and it was not shwing.

821
00:33:44,228 --> 00:33:48,148
Speaker 2: It was this. It was for Klempt, for Clem's and

822
00:33:48,228 --> 00:33:48,748
Speaker 2: Mike Myers.

823
00:33:48,748 --> 00:33:50,668
Speaker 1: As Leonna Richmond would say, he's getting for clemped, and

824
00:33:50,708 --> 00:33:53,348
Speaker 1: he was getting emotional about things. I'm for clemped about

825
00:33:53,348 --> 00:33:56,308
Speaker 1: the Niners right now because I'm feeling like this is

826
00:33:56,308 --> 00:34:00,828
Speaker 1: the Sarah McLoughlin. I I'm seeing these names Art, Travarius Ward,

827
00:34:00,868 --> 00:34:03,228
Speaker 1: telling All, Hufunga, Drake green Law, Javon Hargrave.

828
00:34:03,308 --> 00:34:06,508
Speaker 2: And then the big one for me is this juice.

829
00:34:06,628 --> 00:34:09,268
Speaker 1: The Kyle ust Check is no longer a forty nine er,

830
00:34:09,628 --> 00:34:12,908
Speaker 1: nine years served. It's not a Pro Bowl or newly

831
00:34:12,948 --> 00:34:15,988
Speaker 1: imagined Pro Bowl games presented by Verizon without Kyle Yuscheck.

832
00:34:16,228 --> 00:34:18,988
Speaker 1: He wanted to stay a Niner. They apparently couldn't afford him.

833
00:34:18,988 --> 00:34:21,108
Speaker 1: It was just time to move on. And you Check,

834
00:34:21,148 --> 00:34:23,268
Speaker 1: I love that man. You get attached to people. If

835
00:34:23,268 --> 00:34:25,068
Speaker 1: you're a normal human being, you need to do this job.

836
00:34:25,108 --> 00:34:26,508
Speaker 2: I love you Check. I love his game.

837
00:34:26,748 --> 00:34:29,188
Speaker 1: And Louce Check is also like I'm not done, Like

838
00:34:29,228 --> 00:34:30,788
Speaker 1: you can look at the tape and show me if

839
00:34:30,828 --> 00:34:33,068
Speaker 1: I'm a declining player, because I am the same player

840
00:34:33,108 --> 00:34:35,668
Speaker 1: I always have been. I still love the guy. I

841
00:34:35,708 --> 00:34:37,428
Speaker 1: can't wait for him for somebody to pick him up.

842
00:34:37,468 --> 00:34:39,668
Speaker 1: But I am a little bit sad that this Niners

843
00:34:39,668 --> 00:34:41,988
Speaker 1: team that we have had so many great moments and

844
00:34:42,028 --> 00:34:46,068
Speaker 1: so much heartbreak with as football fans, the two Super Bowls,

845
00:34:46,148 --> 00:34:49,268
Speaker 1: up and down it, so many quarterbacks championship, we've all

846
00:34:49,268 --> 00:34:51,268
Speaker 1: been through it. I mean, we better there a lot

847
00:34:51,268 --> 00:34:53,628
Speaker 1: with these Niners team, and the fact that it is

848
00:34:53,748 --> 00:34:56,948
Speaker 1: kind of like going up into ashes, like you know,

849
00:34:57,028 --> 00:34:59,308
Speaker 1: the Avengers. They're gonna land on their feet. They got

850
00:34:59,348 --> 00:35:01,388
Speaker 1: a great coach and they're going to have a very expensive, I.

851
00:35:01,348 --> 00:35:04,348
Speaker 2: Think, pretty good quarterback. But in the meantime, you check

852
00:35:04,468 --> 00:35:05,548
Speaker 2: for Climp for you, buddy.

853
00:35:05,788 --> 00:35:07,988
Speaker 3: Yeah, Peter, to the point of your board, they got

854
00:35:08,028 --> 00:35:10,068
Speaker 3: to figure out what to do with Rock Party's contract,

855
00:35:10,188 --> 00:35:12,948
Speaker 3: and in terms of that, does that what you apply

856
00:35:13,028 --> 00:35:15,628
Speaker 3: that to as well, Peter Purdy's deal and trying to

857
00:35:15,668 --> 00:35:17,228
Speaker 3: stay are stable in the marketplace,
