12
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: a football podcast, so I'm gonna talk about the game

13
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: right off the bat. I will dive into Colts Broncos.

14
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: I have no clue how Indianapolis won, but they did

15
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: Denver and shambles both the quarterbacks might stink uh Man.

16
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: A lot of other stuff going on, Brady divorce. I

17
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 1: have some thoughts on Lincoln Riley's quarterbacks, Kyler Baker, Jalen

18
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 1: and maybe even a young guy Caleb uh The Steelers

19
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: are getting a little dose to reality. And then my

20
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: most intriguing game this weekend, the Cowboys playing O Sean McVeigh.

Speaker 1: pay homage and respect to all of us for watching

28
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: that game. Obviously, we all love football. It's the number

29
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: one sport in America for a reason. It's a fantastic game.

30
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: It's entertaining. Uh, it brings us a lot of joy,

31
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: fantasy gambling, root for our teams. That was terrible, and listen,

32
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: I am not some hater of Thursday night football. I I,

33
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: for the most part enjoy it. I'm not some negative

34
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: nancy by any means. That was really bad. I mean

35
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: that was that that That was a real, real tough watch.

36
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 1: And you know, I think sometimes we have fun though.

37
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, fans, you were were all the same.

38
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: We all just talk about stuff when it's going on,

39
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: and talking about guys being washed or cooked and ironically

40
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: that term with Russ. But I had the thought and

41
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: actually I got a text from NFL executive during the

42
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,839
Speaker 1: game that if you're George Peyton and you were up

43
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: in the box, and I said this from the jump,

44
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: I have no matter how this plays out, I will

45
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: never be critical of him making the move. Clearly he

46
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: was all in and the Broncos were all in for

47
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, and rightfully so. I mean, he's one of

48
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: the greatest quarterbacks ever. He wants to leave Denver. You

49
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 1: think you're gonna have a trade. He ends up resigning

50
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: with Green Bay. He's off the table. Russell Wilson's on

51
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: the line, and did he look last year? A little

52
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: weird for sure. Herd hand I just think you kind

53
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: of throw that to the side and you go, we

54
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: got a chance to get Russell Wilson. No brainer move.

55
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: You make that move every day of the week, and

56
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: twice on Sunday. They gave a lot. I mean, they

57
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: gave several good players, and obviously they gave a lot

58
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: of draft picks. But you do the move, you pull

59
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: the trigger. I mean, that's life's full of having some balls,

60
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 1: and honestly, that wasn't that balls. You have a move

61
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: and he's a Hall of Fame player, he ain't thirty

62
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: eight like doing what the Colts did. Acquiring a guy

63
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: that's thirty eight thirty nine years old who looks shot

64
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: like that's way riskier than what the Denver Broncos did

65
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: throughout the history of the league. But if you're sitting

66
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: up there in a box would look like by himself,

67
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: you have to be thinking to yourself, did I make

68
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: a major mistake? And not that obviously you're never gonna

69
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: be able to redo it, But are we screwed? Is

70
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: this guy a different player than the one we all

71
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: witnessed for Seattle? You couldn't have watched Russell Wilson for

72
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: basically a decade in Seattle, especially that latter half and

73
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: not thought remarkable player, hall of Fame talent, carries the

74
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: team on his back, magician, pull shit out of his ass.

75
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: I mean, there were more plays that had no business

76
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: being made that Russell made. We all witnessed him. We

77
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: all watched them, and they consistently won eight of ten

78
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: years they went to the playoffs. But the guy were

79
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: watching right now and listen tonight, you can nitpick Hacket

80
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: a little bit like you gotta kick the field goal

81
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: or just run the ball and then kick it on

82
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: third down. Bullshit, you're paying this guy two fifty million dollars.

83
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: Now it's clearly not going well. But it's only four

84
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: games in. If you're already out, let's just let's just

85
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: call it a season. I have no problem with them

86
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 1: throwing it late in the game. Russell's pick was atrocious.

87
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: I mean that was Are we watching Carson wentz Well

88
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: baker Field or is that Russell Wilson that that pick?

89
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: I ain't blaming Nate Hackett. He's been a disaster several

90
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: times this season. Tonight was about Russell Wilson, and tonight's

91
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: about if you're the general manager of the team. I

92
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: was texting with a couple of die hard fans. They're

93
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: clearly concerned. So I always say this, if the fans

94
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: are concerned and not like little stuff. I'm talking big picture.

95
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 1: Is our quarterback any good? You better believe the general

96
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: managers thinking it? And he has to be. How's it

97
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: gonna sleep tonight? And I'm not even talking win or

98
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: lose this game? Ultimately whatever. You invested half a billion

99
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,559
Speaker 1: dollars into this player. You traded several first round picks

100
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: for this player. You traded several core pieces for this player,

101
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: and he looks like a bottom ten quarterback right now.

102
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: His magic, historically, and what made him a Hall of

103
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: Fame player was movement, was running around and he doesn't

104
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: really do that anymore. And then you watch him then eight.

105
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: I've always said, and I think most of you would agree,

106
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: he throws one of the most beautiful deep balls in

107
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: the league. The arc on the ball, the spin on

108
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: the ball, how it drops down right in the guy's hands.

109
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: Yet now when he's throwing it, it's not even remotely

110
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 1: close to the wide receiver. I mean the one play

111
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: tonight that they hit big, the wrong wide receiver came

112
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 1: out of nowhere and made the catch. Now you can

113
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: say some of that's coaching, okay, but you can't convince

114
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: me that Russell Wilson, who told Peter King before the season,

115
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: this isn't a coach player relationship. This is a partnership.

116
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 1: We are equals. We see eyed Russell the coach that

117
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: their partners like. You know, have you ever been in

118
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: a business partnership? Like, hey, for every dollar and we

119
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: split fifty fifty, like that's that's how partnerships work or hey,

120
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: seventy thirty or eighty or sixty five, thirty five or

121
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: whatever the deal is. They acted like partnership. That's not

122
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: usually the way it works in the National Football League,

123
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: but that's what Russell wanted because forever he didn't like

124
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: answer in to Pete. He thought he was too archaic.

125
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: He didn't think, you know, to know what he was doing. Well,

126
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: I'm watching Russell get the keys to the castle because

127
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: you saw the Waltons, who can sell you seventy five

128
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: pieces of toilet paper or eighty five steaks for twenty

129
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 1: and they can do that better than anybody and make

130
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: an astronomical amount of money. They know nothing about football.

131
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,679
Speaker 1: I don't even count them involved in this. George Payton,

132
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: who was like Chris Ballard, was the apple of everyone's

133
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: eye as a general manager, gets this job starts trapping. Well.

134
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: One thing I've texted multiple people that I'm like Patrick

135
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: Surtain Baller. Do you know who you know? Certain is

136
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: he's basically Durrell Reeves his ability to mirror and length

137
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: of Richard Sherman and length and physicality like the guy's

138
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: a star. They took him over justin fields. I would

139
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: rather have him than justin Fields today, no questions about it.

140
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: Looks like he drafts well, but ultimately you're judged on

141
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: who's your coach and who's your quarterback. The coach, you know,

142
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: you can blame him for it, but they're trying to

143
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: get Rogers. They're trying to get Russell Wilson. It's been

144
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: well reported those two quarterbacks gave the okay on this coach.

145
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 1: They wanted it. This was NBA style. This isn't NFL

146
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: style is usually we hired the coach, we tell you

147
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: what to do. This whole deal was like, well, do

148
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: whatever you want Rogers and Russell, and they have. And

149
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: now Russell was getting the keys of the to the

150
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: car and he's crashing it. I mean he's falling down

151
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: the hill right now, over and over. The car's total.

152
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: It's a disaster, and he looks like a shell of himself.

153
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: And that listen. I am not some Russell Wilson hater.

154
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: He's always been one of my favorite players to watch.

155
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: The guy I'm watching right now isn't remotely close. And

156
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: what's sad. For a long period of time, the way

157
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: we defended Russell in Seattle was like, you know, they

158
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: went ten and six. But man, if they had a

159
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: good defense, you know, the the latter years, once Richard

160
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: left and Earl got cut and Cam retired and April

161
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: got injured, and it was basically just Bobby Wagner. It

162
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: was like, if he had a good defense again, this

163
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: would be a dominant team. He's got an incredible defense.

164
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: You can't throw on them. They got dvs everywhere, they

165
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: got a great pass rush, and they didn't score a touchdown.

166
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: Like this is This isn't nineteen eighty three, this is nine.

167
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: This is two thousand two. You can't score a touchdown. Uh,

168
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: Broncos are in trouble. I mean major trouble. If I'm

169
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: John Schneider, I'm licking my lips because I got their picks. Uh.

170
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: And then on the flip side, like you know what's

171
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: crazy the way the game played out. My entire segment,

172
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: this opening segment was about the Broncos losing, and I

173
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: was gonna rip on the Colts first and then get

174
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 1: to the Broncos. Though the topics didn't change, like my

175
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: thoughts on the game didn't change regardless who won it,

176
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: just the the way we you know, I'm gonna talk

177
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: about the Broncos first because they just lost, will dive

178
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: into the Colts, and I don't think any differently just

179
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: because they want. I think, if you leave this game

180
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,719
Speaker 1: early on, when it looked like the Colts might just

181
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: get you know, lose thirteen to nothing and not score

182
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: a point, I thought, Frank Ballard or I mean, excuse me,

183
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: Frank Reich and Chris Ballard are done. It's over. And

184
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 1: a couple of people I started texting around, like do

185
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: you think he'd really fired Chris, Chris Ballard, Jim Rsay,

186
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: And I got a couple of people say, I I can't,

187
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: I don't see it, I don't believe it. I think

188
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: Frank's in major trouble. And sometimes winning can act like

189
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 1: a band aid, you know. Sometimes if you ever at

190
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: a leak a Major League, especially if you ever been

191
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: in a situation where a boat boat leaking and you

192
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: don't have anything to put over. You put your hand

193
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: and it won't cover all the water, and you start

194
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: going under. That's what it feels like, and sometimes you

195
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: can kind of cover it. It's like putting a band

196
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,719
Speaker 1: aid over a bullet hole, like it ain't gonna fix

197
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: the problem, Like Frank ain't the answer, Frank is not

198
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: going to be the coach on this team next year.

199
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: We'll get into Matt Ryan here in a second, but

200
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 1: Frank specifically, like we saw last year when the Chip one,

201
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: he was the guy that wanted Carson Wentz. He was

202
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: the guy that banged the table and that ultimately cost

203
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: them the playoffs those last two games when Carson was atrocious.

204
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 1: And listen, I ride a route for Carson. I've watched

205
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: him this year. You get within you know, a foot

206
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: of him, he crumbles like a cookie. Like his physical

207
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: like Carson Wentz. His physical attributes in terms of throwing

208
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: the ball down the field, uh, movement wise are still there,

209
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: unlike Matt Ryan. Yet when you get around him, he

210
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: just falls in hiss the ground and he's kind of worthless.

211
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 1: And that's who Frank wanted. And then this year they

212
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: got a little lucky because Deshaun Watson might have gone

213
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: to the Falcons then Matt Ryan, and they ended up

214
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: with him. So I don't necessarily put Matt Ryan on Frank, right,

215
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: But I just watched Frank's team. The offense looks lifeless. Uh,

216
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: it looks like it has no plan. His team looks

217
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: pretty lifeless. Even though I'm not necessarily judging him on

218
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: this week, I do think Thursday Nights weird game. That's

219
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: why when you're the Broncos, the home team has to

220
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: win the short weeks October, November, December. You have no excuse.

221
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 1: But the road team wins tonight. But it doesn't even

222
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: feel like it's meaningful. Like I I don't view the Colts.

223
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: They look like a five win team to me. And

224
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,839
Speaker 1: Jim rsays up there and I'm not acting like he's

225
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 1: a rooney, you know, like he knows what's going on.

226
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 1: But he's been at this long enough around Peyton, even

227
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: the years with Lucky. He knows what winning football looks

228
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 1: like and this ain't it now. I do think when

229
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: it comes to firing a general manager, if you fire

230
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: both of them, that's a pretty big pain in the

231
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: ask for Jim Mercy. He then, because it wasn't that

232
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: long ago, Chris Ballard was the number one gentleman general

233
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,719
Speaker 1: manager candidate for a long period of time and then

234
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: he finally gets a job and just in terms of

235
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: team building, does a fantastic job. The coach situation, I

236
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: say it all the time. As a general manager, you're

237
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 1: not just judged on the draft. Hell, you're not just

238
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: judged on free agency. You're judged on who you hire

239
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: as a coach and definitely who you find as a quarterback.

240
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: And they've really struggled from the quarterback situation. Not all

241
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: of his fault, Andrew Luck retired on him, and they've

242
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: kind of been spinning their wheels. They take a chance

243
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: on wins, they've now taken it, taken a chance on

244
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan and it's just not really working out. Matt

245
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: Ryan is not very good now. If it was up

246
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: to me, I would keep Chris Ballard and I would

247
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: fire Frank Craik. And when it comes to Matt Ryan, listen,

248
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: if you told me this weekend, I could go hang out,

249
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: play golf, drink beers, talk ball, talk life with Matt

250
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: Ryan signed me up. Seems like a cool hank, seems

251
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: like a great guy. People really like him when it

252
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: comes to playing quarterback. Like, what's weird about russ Is

253
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 1: he still in his early thirties Like usually guys in

254
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: their early thirties. I mean, Rogers still crushing at thirty

255
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: eight years old, Brady Right, It's not like Russell doesn't

256
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: have an arm strength anymore. It's like, what's going on.

257
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's understandable. The majority of my life guys at

258
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: his age thirty six, thirty seven, thirty eight years old,

259
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: like most of my life in the nineties, the two

260
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: the two thousands, It wasn't until the last five or

261
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: six years guys fell off a cliff at that age.

262
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: I respect this about Matt Ryan, his toughness. Fantastic getting

263
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,719
Speaker 1: pepper tonight for an offensive line that's supposed to be fantastic.

264
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: I don't know who they're playing at tackles, I mean

265
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: those tackles are getting worked. Uh, he pops back up.

266
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: I've always respected the same thing with Philip Rivers. Rivers,

267
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: even at the end. Philip Rivers, you could hit him

268
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: over and over and over again and you get back up.

269
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: Same thing with Eli Manning at the end of their career.

270
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: They were tough as ship. But his arm is shot.

271
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's holding on for dear life. And

272
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: from an athletic standpoint, he's never been a great movement guy.

273
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: Now he's kind of a sitting duck. So if you

274
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: can't protect him, which they cannot, and some of that

275
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: is definitely on the coach he's just I mean, he's

276
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: basically just waiting back there for the defensive line to

277
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: hit him. And I think both these two teams are

278
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: a disaster, and ultimately the coach is gonna be blamed

279
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: because that's the way it works. You know, Rust is

280
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: making forty five million, Matt's making. This's gonna sound harsh,

281
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: and um sometimes being harsh is just the truth and

282
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: just a reality. Matt Ryan signed a hundred and fifty

283
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: million dollar contract back in two thousand and eighteen, averaging

284
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: obviously thirty million dollars for the next five years. First

285
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: couple of years he was okay. I think the last

286
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: three years you could argue he's been the most overpaid

287
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: player in the NFL these last couple of years definitely,

288
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: I mean sixties sixty plus million dollars in the last

289
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: couple of years. I mean, he's probably like a ten

290
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: million dollar player. I mean, really, he's He's probably a

291
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: really good backup at this point, a little like Flacco.

292
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: To me, that's probably the umbrella that he falls under.

293
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: But these two quarterbacks for the Broncos and the Colts

294
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: are gonna get their two coaches fired because, as we know,

295
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: I guess maybe I have to look at his contract.

296
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: Maybe you could fire Matt Ryan at the end of

297
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: the year, cut him, get rid of the contract with Russell.

298
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: Obviously you cannot. You're stuck with that. But Russell is

299
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: gonna get his coach fired, and ultimately Matt Ryan is

300
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: gonna get a lot of people fired. And it's just

301
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: the way the NFL kind of falls. It's a coach

302
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: and quarterback league. And I'm a big believer in this.

303
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: I do like my quarterback, I mean, Brady somewhat of

304
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: an outlier to be athletic in this modern day football.

305
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: I mean, these defensive linemen can all run, They all

306
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: can move, you know. I remember when I was in

307
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: my my I think it was like second second year

308
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: in Philly, we drafted Fletcher Cox and he was such

309
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: an outlier from a freak standpoint. They're like five Fletcher

310
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: Cocks coming to the NFL every single year. But I'm

311
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 1: just talking about d tackles, let alone all the defensive ends.

312
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: All these defensive linemen can run. So your quarterback, like

313
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: the day and ages of the guy just sitting there

314
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: and throwing dimes from the pocket and having zero mobility

315
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: are over. I'm not acting like everyone's got to be Kyler.

316
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: He ain't my cup of tea either. But the Matt Ryan's,

317
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: the Allies, the Flat Goes the Rivers, you know those days.

318
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: Tom Brady so much better than those guys. He can

319
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: kind of figure it out. Uh, but these these quarterbacks

320
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 1: are just killing their team. Football season is underway, so

348
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: I was thinking about the story in Really two things

349
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: on Thomas Brady, who also was known as the greatest

350
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,360
Speaker 1: quarterback of all time, which this week made some headlines,

351
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: and I want to hit on two things. First depending

352
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: divorce and second he had a very I thought, just

353
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: insightful comment about the NFL about how there's just a

354
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,920
Speaker 1: lot of shitty football being played right now. But first,

355
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: on the divorce, I don't think it took a rocket

356
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: scientists to figure out that there was a major red

357
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: flag when he took off, but even before that, when

358
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: he retired, what I think was like for forty one

359
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 1: or forty five days and then came back. Now, I

360
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 1: know some people like I don't know Tom, I know

361
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: some people that know him or know his circle that

362
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,919
Speaker 1: you just hear stories over the years. But that's the

363
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 1: way with a lot of people you know that are famous.

364
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 1: You know, and I don't want to say the world

365
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: I run in, but you just hear some things and

366
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,359
Speaker 1: you never know. I I take this tactic in life

367
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: in general because I think Instagram is a great example

368
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: of this. And I'm excluding Tom from this, but like

369
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: you see so many good looking people, guys, girls in

370
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: relationships on Instagram and the pictures they post, You're like, God,

371
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: that's got to be the perfect couple. God, they really

372
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 1: got it all. And any human knows that. Of course,

373
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: they don't whether you're good looking and rich, whether you're ugly,

374
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: and poor. We all have similar issues when it comes

375
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 1: to our personal relations ships, right, you fight over little things. Now,

376
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: obviously you could argue money make some things unfightable, but

377
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: I think historically, if you just know any person in

378
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: life who's successful, they have similar problems. And Tom and

379
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: Giselle are worth hundreds of millions of dollars, doesn't mean

380
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 1: their problems are any different than your problems. If you

381
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: make seventy five thousand dollars combined household income. You fight

382
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: over the kids, you fight over the time, you fight

383
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: over attention, you fight over basic human needs. And I

384
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: think one thing we've learned, definitely over the last couple

385
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,439
Speaker 1: of years there's no and I've always believed in this,

386
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: That's why I was so uncomfortable with everything in two

387
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: thousand twenty one. There's no such thing as a utopian world.

388
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,439
Speaker 1: That there's really no such thing as fairness, especially in

389
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: this society. Want the one thing we've learned over the

390
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: last couple of years, I mean, we printed a bunch

391
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: of money and just gave it to people, and one

392
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: thing we found out, like that's a disaster because in

393
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 1: this society there are winners or losers, and the sad

394
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: reality is in a massive building, someone has to be

395
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 1: the CEO, and someone has to clean the toilets and

396
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: throw away the trash. And in a relationship, some work

397
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 1: and some, for whatever reason, don't. But when it comes

398
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,919
Speaker 1: to like, let's face it, Gizelle is no longer the

399
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: number one supermodel, not because she's not good looking or whatever.

400
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 1: It's because she's old, like the top supermodels usually aren't,

401
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, forty two, forty forty four years old.

402
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: Just like the reason Peyton Manning is still not a

403
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: top quarterback in the NFL his arms stop working, Drew

404
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: Brees couldn't throw age usually derails a lot of you know,

405
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: supermodels and pro athletes. It's the reason that they don't

406
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: get to stay on top. And Tom Brady has defied

407
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 1: the odds. If you've watched Tom Brady this season, he

408
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 1: still looks fantastic. He does not look like he's forty

409
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 1: five years old. He still throws seats, And I think

410
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear you don't need to know these people

411
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: or have like intimate information of their relationship. She wanted

412
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: him to stop playing football and listen my girlfriend, and

413
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: I'm sure anyone that's in a relationship in a marriage

414
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: has these conversations. I think I've talked to a couple

415
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: of girls about this. Most of their they side, which

416
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: is l they think it's time stop playing. And the

417
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: most professions, the overwhelming majority of professions, you can do

418
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: till you want to stop doing it. That's not the

419
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: way football works. He has dedicated his life to doing this,

420
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: and to me, I would side with her if he

421
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,640
Speaker 1: was below average, if he was like, you know, he's

422
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 1: like Jimmy Garoppolo. Now you know, he's not like Drew

423
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 1: Brees or Peyton Manning or Ben Roethlisberg falling off cliff.

424
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 1: He's just average. It's like, you know what, Tom just

425
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: it's it's over, But it's not. I mean, he could

426
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: have won the MVP last year. He's he's the quarterback

427
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: of a team that, let's face it, is gonna be

428
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: a factor in the playoffs. So I'm gonna side with

429
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: him on this, like he should not stop playing football,

430
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: and for him to play football at the highest level.

431
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 1: The way he goes about his business, there is no balance.

432
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people like you know,

433
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: eat breakfast with your kids, eat dinner with your kids,

434
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: go to all the literal league games for your kids. Like, yeah,

435
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 1: in a perfect utopian society, every parent would get to

436
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 1: have breakfast with their kids before they went to school.

437
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: I have dinner with their kids, never miss a game.

438
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: That's not the reality. I can speak for myself. My

439
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 1: dad was a farmer. In certain times of the year,

440
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: he was working all the time. You didn't see him.

441
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 1: My mom worked for the government, and there are periods,

442
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, when they were passing laws or passing things

443
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: in the in the quote unquote I don't even know

444
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: what the House Senate deal with the California government, where

445
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: she would work all night for weeks. She would just

446
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 1: be gone. And we all can relate to these situations

447
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: depending on what our parents did. If they weren't stay

448
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: at home parents read, you just wouldn't see them. And

449
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: these are just normal people jobs like I've been worked.

450
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 1: In football, they don't get to spend football coaches that

451
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: much time with their children for six months of the year,

452
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: and in college FOOTBA and now with recruiting, it's like

453
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: nine and a half ten months a year. In the NFL. Luckily,

454
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: you get some off time and it relaxes in the

455
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,439
Speaker 1: off season. But I'm sorry, Like I remember living with

456
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: a guy who basically worked on Wall Street. I've told

457
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: this story. It was the closest thing to working in

458
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 1: the NFL. The guy was always gone. Now, he said,

459
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 1: father of three, I don't think his job is quite

460
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: as crazy as it was. But if he had stayed

461
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: at the company, a major, major bank, like he would

462
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 1: have been working late nights doing massive deals. He also

463
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 1: made a lot of money. Like there's a give and

464
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: take with everything in life, and there is no perfect

465
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:37,479
Speaker 1: you know, my relationship, your relationship, Like, we all got issues.

466
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: Some are better than others. I have no clue. Have

467
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: they liked each other for a long period of time.

468
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: Who knows. Maybe they had other issues, Maybe this was

469
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: just simmering thing. But when it comes specifically to football

470
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 1: and the argument that she wants him to stop, I

471
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 1: don't blame him one bit for not wanting to quit

472
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: playing football because he's still fucking awesome and to be

473
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: awesome for m Brady the way he does it, just

474
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: like the way Peyton did it, just like the way

475
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: Drew Brees did it. They operate like coaches. They don't

476
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 1: have much of a life. For six months. Tom specifically

477
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: dedicates his life, diet wise, training wise, film, study wise,

478
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: obviously practice wise. I would imagine if you were buddies

479
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: with him, he would probably tell you it was the

480
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: weirdest thing ever. Leaving eleven days at training camp. I

481
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: didn't like that. Now, there are some things bigger than football.

482
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if he was quote unquote trying to

483
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 1: save his marriage, but he had to figure some stuff out,

484
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 1: just like I saw today or yesterday he missed practice.

485
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe he's trying to figure out, Like there

486
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: are things family you can't even focus on work. Now

487
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: there's a whole another trickle down effect with kids and stuff.

488
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 1: I'm just strictly talking about the relationship here. There is

489
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: no perfect that, there is no utopian just because you're

490
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: rich and famous or just because you're poor. We all

491
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 1: got issues. Now. If you can play football, I will

492
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: never blame anyone who's still playing at a high level

493
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,679
Speaker 1: to keep on playing, just like I'll never blame anyone

494
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: were doing any job at a high level for wanting

495
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 1: to continue that. Life is short and we only get gifted.

496
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: I mean, most of us so many skills that we

497
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: can excel at. And obviously Tom Brady like, let's face it,

498
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: the reason Tom Brady is married to Jill in the

499
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: first place is because he's a superstar NFL player. If

500
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, six ft five, handsome, good looking, had just

501
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,959
Speaker 1: graduated Michigan, never played in the NFL and just became

502
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: a finance guy and you know made seven eight hundred, say,

503
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: making a million dollars a year, he ain't married to her.

504
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 1: So like there's a given a take, there's a good

505
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 1: and the bad with any role, any job we all have.

506
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna side with Tom on this one. Was

507
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: sticky get out to play, to continue to play football

508
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 1: because now, who knows, maybe he'll never stop playing. I

509
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 1: joked around on social media, you know, in twenty five

510
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: years Tom Brady versus arch Manning. Tom Brady sixty nine

511
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,160
Speaker 1: years old against a forty year old arch be fun. Uh.

512
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: The other thing is Tom mentioned his press conference this

513
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: week about you know, he was asked about there being

514
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: a lot of two and two teams in the NFL,

515
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,919
Speaker 1: and let's face it, like a lot of one in

516
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: three teams looked like three and one team's ton of

517
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 1: two and one teams At two and two teams, a

518
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: lot of teams kind of looked the same, and his

519
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: his answer was, you know, obviously he watches a lot

520
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 1: of film. He just thought there's a lot of shitty

521
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 1: football being played. And I've said this over and over

522
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: when it comes to injuries, Like when I was a kid,

523
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 1: the game was much more violent. They had two a day.

524
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,400
Speaker 1: Some coaches even had like triple days for a month straight,

525
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: and it felt like consistently there were less injuries. People

526
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: didn't train year round, people smoke some cigarettes on the side.

527
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: It was just a different culture, different world. Yet we

528
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: didn't have guys going down left and right. Why because

529
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: in football, the only way you can play football is

530
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 1: by actually playing in practicing football right. In basketball, Lebron James,

531
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 1: Steph Curry, Clay Thompson, Anthony Davis, whole crew of guys.

532
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: Even though I thought saw Clay say that he, uh,

533
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: he is scared to play pick up basketball because the

534
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: last time he played pick up basketball Tours Achilles. But

535
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: that's a whole another conversation. My point is, you can

536
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 1: just play a pickup game, even if it's not quite

537
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: like NBA playoff level game. If it's ten NBA guys,

538
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: you can get legit work in baseball like I can

539
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: just in the offseason get a bullpen with Justin ver.

540
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: Later he can just throw and I can stand in

541
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: there and I can take some hacks. In football, I

542
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: can rep running out routes with my quarterback. It is

543
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: not the same when there's a corner and we got

544
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: pads on and there's a pass rush. We all acknowledge that, right.

545
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: Anyone that played high school football knows in the springtime,

546
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 1: when you're doing drills and shorts and T shirts, it's

547
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: dramatically different than when the pads come on in the season,

548
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: let alone college, let alone the pros. And I think

549
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: in the pros and listen, I've been around. I got

550
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: into college football in two thousand and eight when I

551
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: got hired at Fresen State and I worked at cal Poly.

552
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: But I would say that's a different level. I got

553
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: in Division one college football in two thousand and eight.

554
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: Have been around the NFL ever since. And when I

555
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: got there in two thousand eight, Pat Hill, we used

556
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: to have double days for like three straight weeks and

557
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: it was really intense. And then I got to the NFL.

558
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: Andy Read did the same thing, double day after double

559
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: day after double day, and then the cb A changed

560
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 1: and double days were thrown out the window. And then

561
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: the new cb A that happened recently had has even

562
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: made it lighter. I've gone to these practices, listen. I've

563
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: been going to Kyle Shanahan practice now for about four

564
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: or five years, and we've all seen they have one

565
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: of the most physical defenses in the league. They have,

566
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: they might have the best defense in the league. But

567
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: I think a lot of that is because they said

568
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: the best players, right. They have star players at several positions.

569
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: It's not because they practice. Nick Bosa does not practice,

570
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 1: and that doesn't mean he's not in shape or whatever.

571
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: Nobody practices. So these injuries to me, are a big

572
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: reflection of the lack of practice into the lack of

573
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: just very good play. We just don't practice football anymore.

574
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: You talk to anyone that's like fifty years older older,

575
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: if you ever get the opportunity guy that played in

576
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: the NFL, especially getting to talk to guys that played

577
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: for good teams like Guy Ever played for Bill Parcels,

578
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: Guy Ever played for Jimmy Johnson, Guy Ever played for

579
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: those teams right who whatever? Just playoff level teams and

580
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: they say we wore pads on Wednesday and Thursday, like

581
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: in December. You know, the Patriots used to have scrimmages

582
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: back in the day with Belichick and Brady when they

583
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: had the bye week before the second round of the playoffs,

584
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: they would be padded that week. Nobody does that anymore,

585
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: So to me, there's a level of just lack of

586
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: and these are the rules. These aren't because coaches want

587
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: to do this. Now, maybe coaches would change a little

588
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: bit because of the amount of money people are paying.

589
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: Obviously the money factors in, but the game is still

590
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: the game, right You're still trying to get a first

591
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 1: down on third and seven, and if you've repped it

592
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 1: only so many times in shorts and tea shirts, I

593
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: can't be surprised when it's not working. So Tom Brady

594
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,959
Speaker 1: has you know, he's a single and I mean, can

595
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 1: you has there been a more eligible bachelor than a

596
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: forty five year old Tom Brady? Seven super Bowl champs

597
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: worth hundreds of millions of dollars, good looking watch out.

598
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 1: I mean, oh my god. My early guesses Margot Robbie

599
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 1: will be first girlfriend. Um. I don't know if he'll

600
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 1: go super young like Jerry buss Leo style, but my

601
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: my guests would be thirties because you know, he'll just

602
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: be off a divorce, won't want to get married right away.

603
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: My I envisioned Tom Brady getting remarried like in his

604
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: like fifty six when he gets married to like a

605
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: former actress, and like, you know, I told myself I

606
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: was never gonna get married again, but we just fell

607
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: in love and that that would be my prediction. But

608
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: I agree with Tom. The football while it's entertaining and

609
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: I'm glad we're all watching it, ratings are up. Isn't

610
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: that great? Right now? I was thinking about this because

611
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: it happened sometimes like this happened forever with Ohio State,

612
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 1: Like does the Ohio State have a problem? Their quarterbacks

613
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: aren't good in the NFL? And I think it's an

614
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: easy thing to do, like so and so program doesn't

615
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: produce exposition, like stay away from this position at this program, right,

616
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: don't mess with a quarterback from Mike Leach's program. And

617
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley essentially comes from Mike Leach. Lincoln Riley aim

618
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: from Texas Tech, went there to play quarterback. I think

619
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: it was a walk on Mike Leach basically after year

620
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 1: once that you're never gonna play, You're never gonna get

621
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: a scholarship, but we like your kid become a coach.

622
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley became a student coach early while he's still playing,

623
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: because he was never gonna play in the rest of his

624
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: his history. Now, his scheme is different than Mike leaches,

625
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: but it is a very quarterback friendly scheme. And for

626
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: three straight years he had elite quarterbacks to one the

627
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: Heisman and another guy had transferred from the top program

628
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: in the country, Alabama, And I was thinking about, like,

629
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: does does this like his quarterback? Two of them right

630
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: now are struggling, and obviously Jalen's having success, but even

631
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: Jalen was kind of polarizing coming out. Does that reflect

632
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley? And I've always said this, we're scouting an

633
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: individual from a great program, from a bad program whatever.

634
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 1: That individual player is his his own story, not the coach,

635
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: not the scheme. Like you gotta figure out that player

636
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: story and then factor all that stuff the scheme he's in,

637
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: the coach he has. But you can't go in thinking, well,

638
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna think this about this guy because of the

639
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: program he's at, negatively or positively. Now, obviously, if you

640
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: come from a sabing defense. I mean, there are specific situations,

641
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: but these quarterbacks, I was thinking, like, should I be

642
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: scared moving forward of Lincoln Riley quarterbacks, Let's just go

643
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: through the three of them. Kyler Murray first and foremost.

644
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: He benefits a lot from the short quarterbacks who had

645
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: come into the league. Baker Mayfield the year before had

646
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: just been drafted number one. Russell Wilson at the time

647
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: two thousand, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen eighteen had become a star player.

648
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: So short quarterbacks were invoked because when I was a kid,

649
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: if you're my age, born in the mid eighties, in

650
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: the eighties and the nineties, and even in the two thousand's,

651
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: a quarterback of Kyler Murray size would never have been

652
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: drafted number one. Now, part of the reason you could

653
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: justify it even now in short quarter his talents elite.

654
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: One of the best athletes has ever seen, a fantastic

655
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 1: arm and accurate, so the talent elite. But he's tiny.

656
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 1: Now it's proven to be true that his size to

657
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,839
Speaker 1: me limits how good he can be because he's got

658
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 1: to scramble to see, he can't see within the pocket,

659
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: and he gets hurt. But I think the number one

660
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 1: thing that stands out about Kyler despite his size, and

661
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 1: let's face it, I was lucky enough when I worked

662
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: in the league. You know, when I worked in the

663
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 1: league office, I got to see a lot of quarterbacks.

664
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 1: As you go to you know, eight or nine games.

665
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: I didn't travel with the team, but all the home

666
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: games you go to, I actually saw more quarterbacks. Sometimes

667
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 1: by my second year, I was like out on the road.

668
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 1: Sometimes you didn't get to go to all the games.

669
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: When I did the Raider post game for like two

670
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 1: straight years, I went to you know, six team straight

671
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: NFL games, and you get to see at the time Roethlisberger, Eli,

672
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, Carson Palmer. I don't think people realize how

673
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: fucking massive that generation of Tom Brady Peyton manning, that

674
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: crew of quarterbacks like their generation are. Remember I was

675
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: going to a lot of Warriors games, Like Ben, Roethlisberger,

676
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer are like bigger than Draymond Green. These men

677
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 1: are massive. Yeah, I was with Carson Palmer at this party.

678
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 1: I remember staring up at him like, this guy is huge. Eli.

679
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 1: These guys are massive. Flacco and Kyler's not. But his

680
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: biggest issue is he's an underachiever. Like he's an underachiever.

681
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: I said at the time, it was insane that they

682
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: gave him that much money given the way the last

683
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: couple of years had gone, and they didn't have to,

684
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 1: and they got pressured into it, they got shamed into it,

685
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: and they capitulated. And now, let's face it, they have

686
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 1: to regret it. They just do because when you watch him,

687
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: it doesn't look right. Something is off. And they even

688
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: told you he does not study in a game and

689
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 1: a sport that at that position, you have to dedicate

690
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: so much of your life, even if you're not Brady

691
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: level what Mahomes and Alan, the time they spend preparing

692
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: has to be just at I mean an A plus

693
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray claimed. Remember when that came out, He's like,

694
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 1: you know, people questioning whether I study. No. Kyler, of course,

695
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: like when you're at the office in the meeting room

696
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 1: with the quarterback coach, you watch film. What they questioned

697
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: when you leave the facility, and I've heard this, you

698
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: never ever turn on the film and look at football,

699
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 1: And I think that's kind of playing out the way

700
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 1: you play. And to me, ultimately, why he's gonna fail

701
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: is not the actual talent, even though I think his

702
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: ceiling is somewhat capped at that size. It's because he's

703
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:34,439
Speaker 1: an underachiever. Baker. What turns out he's just not good enough.

704
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 1: And where I got it wrong is he was awesome

705
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 1: in college. Three year guy was so good. Played with

706
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: star players. Obviously Lincoln Riley he benefited, but if you

707
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: watch Baker at Oklahoma, he was a star. Two things

708
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 1: to me really stand out. He is a blow average athlete,

709
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,439
Speaker 1: so he's not big, he can't see any can't move,

710
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: so he's very limited to do anything off script. And

711
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: then too like big reason he got drafted number one

712
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: was like this bravado And this is the type stuff

713
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 1: I talk about. When you go into Scout Guys, you

714
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 1: hear a lot of positive things about Will Levis guys guy.

715
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: Everyone in the program loves him. You can't meet anyone

716
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: campus that don't like him. He's got some fire, he's

717
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: got some shipped to him, like you love that, and

718
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: you kind of if that's what the scouting report is,

719
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: you kind of bet on that, and you try to

720
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 1: get to know him, You really try to vibe with it,

721
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: and you t is this gonna work with my guys,

722
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: is this real? Is it fake? And Baker like have

723
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: this kind of ship to him, And clearly that doesn't

724
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: translate to the NFL because his teammates don't really seem

725
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 1: to like him. Already. D J. Moore's kind of out

726
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: on him, Cleveland, all those guys were out on him.

727
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: And when you're not good, here's the other problem, having

728
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: bravado or being cocky or whatever. You know, at the

729
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: highest level of any profession, you gotta be able to

730
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: back it up. If you don't back it up, people

731
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: just kind of think you're a clown. So to me,

732
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: if Mahomes and Josh Allen and Lamar, and honestly, let's

733
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 1: face it, those guys don't really act like that, but

734
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 1: if they did, you'd be like woll Ship, Josh Allen's

735
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 1: killing it. Mahomes, you know, m v P Super Bowl Champ,

736
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: Lamar one of the greatest athletes, quarterbacks, ass kickers we've

737
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: ever seen. But they don't. But Baker, you kind of

738
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,359
Speaker 1: have this bravado. It's like, Bro, you're throwing like fifty

739
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 1: completing presentage. Man, Well, what are you talking about. You're

740
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: throwing to the other team like every seven passes and

741
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: I think he's not producing and the provider doesn't work.

742
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: You really just have a dud as a player, and

743
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 1: he is trending in the wrong way fast. So to me,

744
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 1: Baker was just an over evl. He got factored on

745
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: the wrong stuff and Kyler Murray turns out the talent

746
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: we all saw it. He's an underachiever. And to me,

747
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: that's where Jalen Hurts comes in because he is an overachiever.

748
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 1: I saw Sirianni on with Pat McAfee and Sirianni was

749
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 1: asked about Jalen Hurts and he said, first and foremost,

750
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 1: he's a dog. And what he means by that is

751
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: the ultra competitor, a guy that when I'm in the

752
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: trenches and it's third and eight team, or if it's

753
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 1: first and five and we're up by thirty or we're

754
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 1: down by twenty, I want to go to war with

755
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: this guy. In football, you're not gonna win every game, right,

756
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 1: even if you're a great team, but you want to be.

757
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 1: And that's why I trust the Niner guys because I

758
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 1: like being in the trenches, you know, with Deebo Samuel,

759
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: with George Kittle, with Nick Bosa, with Fred Warner with

760
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: Jimmy Ward. Like I've seen those guys go to war

761
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: They're not gonna win them all, but I'll take my chances.

762
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: You know, Jalen hurts I question. I didn't think he

763
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 1: could throw the ball, and that's something that usually doesn't improve.

764
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: It has now. He's still not a great thrower of

765
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 1: the ball. He doesn't throw it anywhere near as good

766
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 1: as Kyler, not even close yet. His love for football

767
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: and his dedication to the sport dwarfs Kyler, it's why overachievers.

768
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: And let's face it, it's not like Jalen is not talented,

769
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 1: elite runner of the football, elite football character, talented enough

770
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 1: to immediately play a Bama and then Lincoln wanted him.

771
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 1: So he definitely has some skills, right, I'm judging him

772
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: when I say he's not a great thrower of the football.

773
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,720
Speaker 1: That's compared to the top guys Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, Patrick,

774
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: Maho Holmes, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady. He's never gonna be that,

775
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: but you can Alex Smith never was either. You go

776
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 1: to the playoffs for that guy every single year, and

777
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 1: if your team was stacked the one year with the

778
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: fort it was they went to the championship game and

779
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: they were a muff pun away from being in the

780
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. So you can win big with Hurts if

781
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: you do it around him. Why what did Alex have?

782
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 1: All football all the time? Really serious? And that's what

783
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is. If I I'm never going to but

784
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 1: the one thing I've learned doing this and I'll hopefully

785
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: do this more into business or whatever moving forward, that

786
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 1: won't be football, but football scouting. If I ever were

787
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: to do that again, Like I said, never going to

788
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: the character stuff is what determined so many guys. It

789
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: really is. It's been the downfall of Baker. The focus

790
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,839
Speaker 1: on Kyler has been the downfall of him, and the

791
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: success of Jalen Hurts has been the football character. It's

792
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 1: why if you get the chance to watch, if you

793
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: haven't seen USC this year, you're gonna see him moving

794
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: forward because they're a top ten team. The quarterback they

795
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,760
Speaker 1: have now, uh to me for was like a mixture

796
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 1: of Jalen Hurts and Kyler Murray because unlike Jalen, he

797
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,800
Speaker 1: can really spin it. I mean he's got I wouldn't

798
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: say he's quite got Kyler's arm, but he's got a

799
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: damn good arm, and he's a damn good athlete. And

800
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 1: do you just watch like body language matters. I just

801
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: played golf the other day with with a new buddy,

802
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,840
Speaker 1: a new new buddy in Scott's Dale. He's from the

803
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: Bay Area and his dad was a longtime coach and

804
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 1: he's into coaching now. And he was telling me this

805
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 1: story about coaching. That he had some young guys. He

806
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 1: he coaches a young like AU team, and he was

807
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,280
Speaker 1: telling me this story that a college coach had told him.

808
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 1: The college coach went to the AU practice and at

809
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: the AU practice, they basically or maybe it was an

810
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: AU game, and the college coach went right up to

811
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: the huddle. At the AU game, well, this guy had

812
00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: a chance to go power five, and the college coach

813
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: was just staring at the top prospect and the coach

814
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,319
Speaker 1: was just going ape ship was just screaming at him

815
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,919
Speaker 1: all and the college coach just stared at the kid,

816
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: and the kid never lost eye contact with the coach,

817
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: was dead focused and didn't like pou didn't look the

818
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,439
Speaker 1: other way. And that college coach, like five minutes later,

819
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: gets on the phone with his head coach and they

820
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 1: offered the guy right there, because why body language matters.

821
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: I've said it forever about Kyler terrible body language, Baker

822
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: honestly pretty shitty body language. Jalen Hurts one another thing

823
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:21,800
Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni said, and it's a meme that went viral.

824
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 1: Jaman Hurts. Face never changes the Washington Football team stadium

825
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: fell on him. His face didn't change him. Throwing a

826
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 1: touchdown doesn't change him. Throwing interception doesn't change Like, that's

827
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: what you like. And I just think this Caleb Williams, guy,

828
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: he's not draft eligible. If he was, I think he'd

829
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: be the number one pick in the draft. I think

830
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: he'd go ahead of Will Levison and c J. Strout

831
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: and Bryce Young who knows he's injured. But Caleb Williams

832
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: to me, feels like the total package on the Steelers.

833
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: They are historic underdog, fourteen points on the road to Buffalo,

834
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:59,359
Speaker 1: biggest spread in the history of the franchise. And I

835
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: was thinking about this. They got spoiled, you know, and listen,

836
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: we all get spoiled in life. Anyone in any profession

837
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: that has had a job with a good boss and

838
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 1: a bad boss. You realize the difference, right, You understand

839
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: how crappy. The bad boss is once you have a

840
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 1: good boss, and vice versa. But you never truly know

841
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,399
Speaker 1: you're spoiled good or bad until you experience the opposite. Right.

842
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 1: It's why as you live life, as you experience life,

843
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 1: you're able to get much better perspective on everything. Right,

844
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,720
Speaker 1: It's just it's a reality. I say, you know, anyone

845
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 1: that's going through hard times, no matter how old you were.

846
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 1: I was fired twice by thirty one, and those are

847
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: the best things that's ever happened to me. It really was,

848
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 1: because it taught me, hell, life ain't fucking fair. Like

849
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 1: I don't care how ambitious, how much you try, how

850
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: bad you want it, you could just it could end.

851
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: You just get thrown to the curb, Welcome to America.

852
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 1: And it was a great learning process for me, and honestly,

853
00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: I think I've been able to be a lot more

854
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 1: successful and a lot more focused and have a lot

855
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,800
Speaker 1: better just understanding of the way the world works because

856
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:09,080
Speaker 1: of that. It changed my life forever. At the time,

857
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 1: I was like down in the dumps. I mean, I

858
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 1: was like, my life is over. I'm a failure. And

859
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: it happens to a lot of people whenever you go

860
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 1: through the worst times in life, you go, God, I'm

861
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 1: never gonna make it out, and then you look back

862
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 1: and you're, guy, that's the best thing that's ever happened

863
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: to me. It's why so many successful people tell you

864
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,280
Speaker 1: that you should you should yearn for failure, like failure

865
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 1: is a good thing. It's the only way you learned.

866
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 1: We don't learn through successes. And when they drafted Big

867
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger. In the majority of my life, the Steelers

868
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: have been good when I was a kid, uh Bill

869
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,480
Speaker 1: Kawer all those defenses. I'm not talking like Super Bowl good.

870
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 1: They were always in the mix. They were always winning.

871
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 1: Then they transitioned with Coward to Tomlin, big Bend. They

872
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 1: keep kicking ass. Now. Obviously they were much more consistent

873
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: at quarterback with Ben, but most people that are like

874
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: forty and younger have only experienced sweet times with Big

875
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: Ben in their adult life. And it was awesome. He was.

876
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 1: I mean, he's one of my favorite players to watch. Well,

877
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: he's long gone now because even last year when he

878
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 1: was a shell of himself, when you watch Ben, you went, god,

879
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 1: this sucks to watch him like this. He's still at

880
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: nine eight and one and now with Kenny Pickett on

881
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: the road, I'm not the bigges Kenny Pickett guy, And

882
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 1: like Jalen Hurts, I could be wrong because his football character,

883
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: how bad he wants it now, the difference is Jalen

884
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,720
Speaker 1: can run. Kenny's not a bad athlete, but he ain't Jalen.

885
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: I just don't necessarily see it. And I know PFF

886
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 1: put out a stat that Kenny picketts three picks were

887
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,400
Speaker 1: not his fault. Obviously the last pick hail Mary whatever

888
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 1: to me? The one pick to Pickens like you kind

889
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,879
Speaker 1: of threw into double coverage, Like, I don't know. I'm

890
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: not giving you the benefit of the doubt on that one.

891
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 1: But that's a whole other story. I just think Steeler

892
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,040
Speaker 1: fans like, welcome to a lot of teams in the NFL.

893
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 1: You get you still have a good culture. He still

894
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:45,799
Speaker 1: got a lot of good players. But when you don't

895
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 1: have a quarterback, when you have a question market quarterback,

896
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 1: like this is the league, you know it's just think

897
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 1: about Patriot fans. If you're listening to this and you

898
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 1: love the New England Patriots fans, Oh you love the

899
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. You got to experience Belichick and Brady.

900
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: You got to go to nine Super Bowls. You want

901
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 1: six of them. You went to count I think like

902
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 1: twelve or thirteen a f C Championship games. Oh you

903
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 1: did was win Even when Tom Brady towards a c L,

904
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 1: you won eleven games. Matt Castle, who never fucking started

905
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: a game in college, you took USC's backup, made him

906
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 1: your starter, and you won eleven games. I don't care

907
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:24,280
Speaker 1: how easier schedule was that year. That's incredible. Then Brady leaves,

908
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: you get Cam Newton and you're like, what the hell

909
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 1: is this? What are we watching? And then a year

910
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: later Matt comes you win eleven again. Like you guys

911
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 1: have been pretty spoiled. And now you've got Bailey's appy

912
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 1: potentially starting a game like welcome to the league. And

913
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 1: I think this is just a good you know, I

914
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: think Mike Tomlin's awesome. I think the Steelers organization represents

915
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 1: everything that's a high level pro sports team should. But

916
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 1: like at the end of the day, like you can

917
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 1: be a high level sports team. You can run a

918
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,320
Speaker 1: high level NBA operation. If you don't have a star player,

919
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna win. You you can run a high,

920
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: high level NFL operation. You don't have a quarterback here

921
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: in major trouble. And if Kenny Pickett ain't really good,

922
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 1: like immediately, this team ain't not only making the playoffs

923
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 1: like the five thing for Mike Tomlin is gonna end.

924
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: And last but not least, this game is massive, and

925
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 1: it's the game I'm most intrigued with this weekend is

926
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,839
Speaker 1: Rams Cowboys because I think two things are gonna happen. One,

927
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 1: everyone's selling the Rams rightfully. So we just saw them

928
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: play the Niners and they got worked. Stafford's off leaves

929
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: the league interceptions did last year, but he's not as

930
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 1: explosive passing the ball. The run game stinks, offensive line stinks.

931
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: But if McVeigh wins this game, you'll just go Kyle

932
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,479
Speaker 1: Shanahan owns them. Rams will be fine. Stafford will figure

933
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 1: it out he did last year. Him and Allen Robinson

934
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: gotta get on the same page. They're gonna sign Odell Beckham.

935
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 1: It all will be fine. Like listen, give McVeigh the

936
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt. You lose this game all of

937
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,760
Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like, well they got some major issues.

938
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 1: And then on the flip side, the Cowboys. I would

939
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we all fall into this category.

940
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 1: We know Mike McCarthy an apology because I think we

941
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: all thought Mike McCarthy was gonna be fired potentially by

942
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 1: Halloween and then Dad gets hurt, where like God, he

943
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: is screwed. I mean, what's it gonna start? Like three

944
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 1: and eight, Jerry's gonna fire him, go after Sean Payton

945
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 1: if he wins this game and he's he's a five

946
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,360
Speaker 1: and a half point underdug with his backup quarterback, and

947
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Mike McCarthy is four and one

948
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:20,200
Speaker 1: with Cooper Rush, and I mean, I think it'll be

949
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 1: one of the better stories in the NFL, like he

950
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:24,719
Speaker 1: and people won't want to do it because a lot

951
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 1: of people don't like you know, Eden Crowe, And I've

952
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: said I have no problem doing it. If Cowboys are winning,

953
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 1: I'll tip my ap My McCarthy is doing a good job.

954
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 1: It would be impressive even if he loses this game,

955
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: unless he gets like destroyed. I'll be honest, I'll be impressed.

956
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,280
Speaker 1: But I am looking forward to rams Cowboys, the outcome

957
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: of that game and the headlines that are being written

958
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: by either one of those coaches. Back again with my

959
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: main man, Stucky, who is on fire this year seven

960
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:58,840
Speaker 1: and two. UM. And honestly, what was the game that

961
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 1: he pushed last week? It was the Ravens against the Bills,

962
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 1: which you know, I saw you tweeting. I know you're

963
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: Ravens fan, you you were not happy. Awful Officially, he's

964
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: one of the worst officials in the league. UM, but yeah,

965
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,080
Speaker 1: I agree with the call for the Ravens to go

966
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: for it late. Hopefully some people got plus three and

967
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,239
Speaker 1: a half. UM. But that was that was a tough one,

968
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 1: mainly because I've had a Ravens future and forever and

969
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: they were thirty to one, which I just thought it

970
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,240
Speaker 1: was a joke. One of the best teams the NFL

971
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 1: because of last year. That game was so big for potential,

972
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 1: you know, one seed in the a f C tiebreakers,

973
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 1: SOSI playoff applications. But was was a help of game. Uh, well,

974
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,359
Speaker 1: you know, we might as well just start. I've had

975
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,399
Speaker 1: people tweeting at me that, you know, you were very

976
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:47,799
Speaker 1: predictable when it comes to a team in Nashville that

977
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 1: you fade the Titans, and then as you threw me

978
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:56,360
Speaker 1: the games for this week, of course, the Commanders plus

979
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 1: two and a half. It just feels like a hellhole.

980
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: No one even goes, No one gives a ship that

981
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,279
Speaker 1: They do look pretty terrible ever since that first win

982
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 1: the Jacks. Uh, and you are hammering wentz Dan Snyder

983
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 1: Ron rivera plus two and a half against Mike rabel

984
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:17,879
Speaker 1: Who's let's he's got the train back on the tracks now, stucky? Yeah, look,

985
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 1: I I love Rabel. Um this number is outrageous. Washington

986
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,399
Speaker 1: was just plus three at Dallas. Uh, just plus three

987
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 1: at Dallas last week. And yes they lost that game.

988
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:32,880
Speaker 1: Game was fifteen to ten in the fourth quarter. Washington

989
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:36,720
Speaker 1: had two interceptions that were overturned for a legal contact.

990
00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 1: Probably should have won that game. And I went and

991
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 1: rewatched again yesterday. But Tennessee, look last week they beat me.

992
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,440
Speaker 1: You know, the first two weeks I got them. They

993
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: got me the last two weeks. This is the rubber match.

994
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: And uh, if you take a look at what Tennessee

995
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,800
Speaker 1: has done, Da've come out with a great scripted portion

996
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 1: the past two weeks. They build a lead in the

997
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:58,680
Speaker 1: first quarter and then done. Davan scored in the second

998
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:02,919
Speaker 1: half since week one against the Giants. Their offense, Yeah,

999
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 1: they just they score and then they hold on, but

1000
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 1: I mean, now you lose. Traylon Burke's teams have like

1001
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:09,880
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do in the scripted portrait. By

1002
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 1: the way, Washington's run defense number one in the NFL

1003
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 1: in success rate. They haven't let anyone run on them,

1004
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 1: so you're gonna they're gonna take away Henry here. Unfortunately

1005
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,840
Speaker 1: for the Colts, Leonard gets hurt the first drive. Buckner's

1006
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,839
Speaker 1: limited with an injury, only plays like fifteen snaps, which

1007
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,399
Speaker 1: just kills their run defense. Henry was able to kind

1008
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 1: of get what I didn't think he was going to.

1009
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,880
Speaker 1: But the Washingtons run defense has been awesome and Washington

1010
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: stinks overall. I'm not gonna tell you Carson Wentz is

1011
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 1: any good. But this Tennessee team, I mean, if you

1012
00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 1: remove the first quarter, they are dead last on offense

1013
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:49,880
Speaker 1: and EPA per play on defense, regardless, they are thirty

1014
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 1: in e p A per play only the Seahawks and

1015
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 1: lines have been worse defensively, Like, this team has nothing,

1016
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,920
Speaker 1: and look what they do have. What they don't have,

1017
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 1: especially is edge rushers without Landry, and they just and

1018
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 1: and that's big because once under pressure as a disaster,

1019
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:12,280
Speaker 1: Washington offensive line is dealing with a lot of injuries,

1020
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 1: So yeah, I just think that. I mean, if you

1021
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: look at that game lastie, Tennessee gets three turnovers, Buckner

1022
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 1: and and Leonard or hurt, they get out gained by

1023
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,360
Speaker 1: you know, a hundred and eighty yards by the corpse

1024
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: of Matt Ryan and they just barely hang on because

1025
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,680
Speaker 1: I gotta lead early. I I'm not buying it. This

1026
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 1: team I had as bad because of the offseason nutrition.

1027
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,839
Speaker 1: I still think they're bad. Um. So yeah, this will

1028
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,000
Speaker 1: probably be the only time on the show a year

1029
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: that I back Washington. Um and yeah, here we are go, Commanders. Okay,

1030
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 1: let's uh, we'll dive into your squad. Uh this you

1031
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:53,360
Speaker 1: know it's weird. I mean last year, you guys had

1032
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 1: a million injuries, and I vividly remember Sincinnati. They felt

1033
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 1: like they threw for a thousand yards in that game

1034
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: at Baltimore. Uh Uh. This is obviously a different team.

1035
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,400
Speaker 1: Even though the Ravens, I'm with you that value on them.

1036
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 1: When the Super Bowl thirty two one, it was pretty tasty,

1037
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,439
Speaker 1: but their defense I thought was gonna be really good.

1038
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,799
Speaker 1: I think we have to say it's it might not

1039
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:18,160
Speaker 1: be as good as anticipated. But Cincinnati, you know clearly,

1040
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:19,880
Speaker 1: I mean, were they even that good last year? They

1041
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:21,200
Speaker 1: just got hot at the right time. I mean, they

1042
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,760
Speaker 1: are a good team. They have good, good offensive players,

1043
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 1: I mean a great quarterback. But Ravens minus three, you know,

1044
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: big chip on their shoulder is is you just like

1045
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 1: them in the bounceback situation in this spot. Yeah, I

1046
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 1: think that there's a lot of eye in this number two.

1047
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,759
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's Their secondary is gonna be fine.

1048
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 1: Last year when they were playing the Bengals, I mean

1049
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 1: they were playing in the second game where the Bengals

1050
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 1: put up fifty, they had zero starters available in the secondary.

1051
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 1: Josh Johnson was also starting a quarterback, but they were

1052
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: playing with fourth string corners. The first game they played.

1053
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 1: They had a bunch of guys. The only guy that's

1054
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 1: still there, that's still here is Marlon Humphrey. And they

1055
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 1: had Wake Martindale, who I love for the Giant and

1056
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,720
Speaker 1: what he's doing there. His act was was no longer.

1057
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:05,759
Speaker 1: It was just tired in Baltimore because in the a

1058
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 1: f C you can't incessantly blitz these elite quarterbacks. And

1059
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: Joe Barrows number two in the NFL against the Blitz

1060
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,239
Speaker 1: last year. That scheme just doesn't work. So you have

1061
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,439
Speaker 1: a different scheme here. You'll you know, Peters and humph

1062
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 1: for your back. Marcus Williams one of the best safeties

1063
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:21,479
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and the rookie Kyle Hamilton was actually

1064
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 1: playing really well outside of the first game against Miami.

1065
00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:26,439
Speaker 1: So I think their secondary is gonna be fine. Yeah,

1066
00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:28,160
Speaker 1: And I just don't think. Look, if you look at Baltaro,

1067
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 1: they had ninety percent win probability in every game this year.

1068
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: They lost to Miami in the least, the only game

1069
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: that had a ninety point two or higher percent post

1070
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: game win expectancy in the past three years. Should have

1071
00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:45,760
Speaker 1: won that game. They blow a big lead, they fumble

1072
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 1: at the one and a quarterback sneak whatever. Should have

1073
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 1: won that game. Buffalo. You know you punched that in.

1074
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:55,879
Speaker 1: You don't blow the lead. You're four and out there,

1075
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 1: four and oh easily four it out here. They this

1076
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 1: line would be four and a at five. And the

1077
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 1: Bengals just aren't right right now. We saw this last year.

1078
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,040
Speaker 1: I look, they're still trying to figure out the offensive line.

1079
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 1: It's impacting Burrow. The play calling is awful. They come

1080
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:11,479
Speaker 1: out and they just try to run into a wall

1081
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 1: they get they're getting no push. She saw in the

1082
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:18,399
Speaker 1: Miami game. Yeah, he's awful. The fact that you had that.

1083
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 1: That was the spot of the year. You're planning and

1084
00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:25,160
Speaker 1: you got to play a backup eventually backup quarterback in Bridgewater.

1085
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 1: But you you're playing a Miami team coming off ninety

1086
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,640
Speaker 1: defensive snaps on Sunday against the Bills. They go on

1087
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:32,279
Speaker 1: the road on a short week there they end up

1088
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:36,080
Speaker 1: missing both starting corners and you can't move the ball,

1089
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 1: you're not throwing it. So yeah, the play calling is

1090
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 1: just suboptimal. Ravens want think you're getting value in this

1091
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:44,919
Speaker 1: number because you know, look, hey they're both two and two.

1092
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,880
Speaker 1: The Bengals went to the Super Bowl last year, but

1093
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 1: they just got hot at the right time, benefited from

1094
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 1: a lot of injuries into division. They dominated embarrassed the

1095
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 1: Ravens last year, and they were chirping about it on

1096
00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:00,399
Speaker 1: social media, chirping about it in interviews. Raving have had.

1097
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:02,719
Speaker 1: Ravens were talking. I'm a Ravens fad. I listened to

1098
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 1: a lot of their stuffs WO talk about this game

1099
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:08,560
Speaker 1: since when I was listening to May June. So you

1100
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 1: bet they're gonna have some nice packages that they're gonna

1101
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,640
Speaker 1: unveil here for them. Are they're gonna be ready for

1102
00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 1: this game. The crowd's gonna be ready for this game.

1103
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 1: And uh yeah, I think the Ravens are just in

1104
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 1: a much better spot right now as a team. They

1105
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 1: just blew a couple of leads against exposed of offenses.

1106
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 1: Should get Ronnie Stanley back here to um I have

1107
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: Ravens A minus three is cheap in my opinion. Another

1108
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:34,239
Speaker 1: game that's pretty interesting is uh New England. They're one

1109
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 1: in three, but listen, you know, your guy Billy Zampi

1110
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 1: came in and you know, look solid. Their three losses

1111
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 1: are against you know, obviously three playoff teams Miami and

1112
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,360
Speaker 1: uh Baltimore, and then last week, I mean on the

1113
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 1: road at Lambeau where they were winning. I mean they

1114
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 1: were kind of in control of that game. They really

1115
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,960
Speaker 1: have a good run attack, and you know build that

1116
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 1: they don't have stars on defense, but they clearly are

1117
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:02,719
Speaker 1: a well coached, solid defensive team. Detroit, it's got to

1118
00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:04,279
Speaker 1: be one of the more bizarre teams in the league

1119
00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,200
Speaker 1: right their offense it's weird, Like do you view them

1120
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 1: as have any explosive offense. They're always down like fifteen

1121
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: twenty points and then they come back because that kind

1122
00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 1: of hollow, you know, it's hard to kind of put

1123
00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,439
Speaker 1: in the context. To me, that's different than when you're

1124
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:17,960
Speaker 1: tied twenty to twenty and putting up yards, than when

1125
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 1: you're down twenty and kind of letting it loose. But

1126
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,440
Speaker 1: they have averaged thirty five points a game giving up

1127
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:29,000
Speaker 1: on defense, yet their point differential is minus one. That

1128
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: is that is insane. So I'm sticking by like Detroit

1129
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 1: was gonna be feisty, but their defense is atrocious. I

1130
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: mean it's it's like Oklahoma level shitty. So I I

1131
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: have a hard time. I I think I would lean

1132
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 1: the Patriots. You know, Bill so cloak and dagger about

1133
00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 1: his quarterback. I think it's safe to say we'll probably

1134
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 1: get zappy. So that would make me a little nervous.

1135
00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 1: I mean, a third string quarterback who's now their starting quarterback,

1136
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,520
Speaker 1: just playing in NFL games. But it is you know,

1137
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:59,080
Speaker 1: it's in New England. Uh, where are you leaning with

1138
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:02,200
Speaker 1: this one? Yeah? I like I like New England here

1139
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,600
Speaker 1: through minus three or better. I also like the under

1140
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,640
Speaker 1: this this total is has ticked up to like forty

1141
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 1: six when news of mac Jones potentially playing regardless of

1142
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:16,280
Speaker 1: who plays, and it's Bailey's appy who uh you know,

1143
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 1: belt Just's gonna treat with kids gloves for now and

1144
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,959
Speaker 1: or a hobbled mac Jones, who Belichick is gonna treat

1145
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 1: with kids gloves if you can't really move around. He

1146
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 1: also hasn't been like lighting up. They don't have the best.

1147
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,080
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna be the same game plan. It's

1148
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: gonna be the game plan he saw it last week

1149
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,960
Speaker 1: against Green Bay. Play methodical. I just they're gonna run

1150
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,640
Speaker 1: down Detroit's throat. The third team that's ranked thirty one

1151
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 1: and rund success rate is the Packers. The only team

1152
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 1: worse is the lines. You can run on this team

1153
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 1: all day. And look, yes, I think the lines offenses

1154
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 1: is pretty good because their offensive line is great. You

1155
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:53,520
Speaker 1: agree with me that the yards can be a little

1156
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 1: hollow when you're down in all these games. Of course,

1157
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 1: they also you know, they play in uh you know,

1158
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 1: we your division and they play indoors um And but

1159
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 1: I'm on ras St Brown as a player, Swift as

1160
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 1: a player they're talking to down this week. Yeah, that

1161
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,240
Speaker 1: there are other They have a bunch of other receivers

1162
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 1: that could be out. It doesn't look like ron St

1163
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,919
Speaker 1: Brown's playing, doesn't look like Swift is playing a couple

1164
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 1: offensive linement or iff he So you know, I know

1165
00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,880
Speaker 1: they've been scoring a billion points and giving up a

1166
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:24,600
Speaker 1: billion points, but I think this is a classic like

1167
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:28,640
Speaker 1: Patriots are just gonna run defense, special teams, build a

1168
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 1: lead and then strangle and just bleed the game away

1169
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,000
Speaker 1: and strangle the life out of Goff and company. And

1170
00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:36,800
Speaker 1: for what it's where for his career, Golf does not

1171
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 1: have the strongest arm. He turns into a pump get

1172
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 1: outdoors and in any type of conditions. So, um, this

1173
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 1: isn't This isn't where the lines have been the first

1174
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:50,240
Speaker 1: four weeks indoors and it's bad defenses. Um, and they're

1175
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 1: offenses is an engine healthy. So I think you're getting

1176
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:56,120
Speaker 1: some value on this total because of what Detroit has done.

1177
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 1: But I think they'll be shut down here and then

1178
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:02,080
Speaker 1: it's just like a really conservative plan of the Patriots

1179
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 1: is moving the clock and moving the ball on the

1180
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 1: ground throughout. Yeah, it'll probably feel very two one like this.

1181
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:10,880
Speaker 1: This next game is probably the best game of the weekend,

1182
01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 1: at least for me. Um. I think the Rams and

1183
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 1: the Niners have some parallels. Is they can look really

1184
01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:19,680
Speaker 1: shitty on a given week and then everyone gets off

1185
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 1: the scent and then McVeigh and Kyle bounce back and

1186
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 1: this is the classic week. I mean, we all watched

1187
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 1: the Rams, especially when you play on a primetime game,

1188
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 1: so you know everyone watches you, and then they look

1189
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,520
Speaker 1: really bad. You know Stafford's throwing pick six is they

1190
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 1: only scored nine points. They get shoved around. The Niners

1191
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 1: always shoved them around like that. Just that happens. I

1192
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: mean they go twelve and five and that's they lose

1193
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 1: those two games, so who cares? And you know, Dallas,

1194
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: their defense has been awesome. To me, it just feels

1195
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:46,880
Speaker 1: like the Rams are the play just because everyone's gonna

1196
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 1: be against them. The only thing that makes me nervous is,

1197
01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 1: as you saw with the Niners. The reason the Niners

1198
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: kicked the Rams ass because the Rams offensive line for

1199
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 1: years now has been pretty average and right now it's

1200
01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: below because we're s nowhere to be found. So if

1201
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 1: you have upfront horses, you can kind of funk them up.

1202
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: And I know this about the Cowboys they can get

1203
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 1: after your grass up front, especially with you know, I

1204
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:10,800
Speaker 1: know they're calling them the modern day LT probably a

1205
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 1: little a little bullish, but he is damn good. And

1206
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:17,640
Speaker 1: Bosa was all over massd Affer and I don't see

1207
01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:22,160
Speaker 1: how they block Michael Parsons stucky, So I my my gut,

1208
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: just because short, everyone that's gonna take the Cowboys is

1209
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:29,680
Speaker 1: the Rams. But the matchup there makes me nervous. Yeah,

1210
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 1: I I love the Rams here and look, yeah, I

1211
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,600
Speaker 1: think you nailed it when you said, hey, look, the

1212
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,800
Speaker 1: Rams got embarrassed by Kyle Shannon. That happens every time

1213
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 1: they play each other. So like it's the circle of

1214
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:45,800
Speaker 1: life in the NFC West, like the the Rams on

1215
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 1: the Cardinals who are Onty, who are on the Rams.

1216
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 1: Like that. It's just these things that happened next to

1217
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 1: us because the matchups, and I mean Kyle Shannon and

1218
01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 1: completely owns Sean McVeagh. By the way, McVeigh five and

1219
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 1: o against the spread on a short week in his

1220
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:02,800
Speaker 1: past five five and he is fifteen and eight against

1221
01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:05,120
Speaker 1: the spread after a loss, a straight up loss in

1222
01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 1: the regular season. His team's as you mentioned, do bounce back. Well,

1223
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: I just think this line is crazy. Your your points

1224
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 1: are warranted about their offensive line. The hope is you

1225
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 1: get Brian Allen back and um, but yeah, their offensive

1226
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,480
Speaker 1: is not gonna be good all year. The offense has

1227
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,919
Speaker 1: taken a big step back. Handakers is in himself. Allen

1228
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 1: Robinson is a down what they had last year. Yeah,

1229
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:27,320
Speaker 1: it's just caught. But just like throwing the Cooper couple

1230
01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 1: million times, which can work, and I think that might

1231
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 1: be enough here. And this is really a fade of

1232
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:35,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys for me. Um, it's the love for Cooper.

1233
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:37,320
Speaker 1: Rush has the top. He's managed the game well. But

1234
01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 1: this is a team that they've scored. They're barely scoring

1235
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:43,840
Speaker 1: twenty points. And they beat the Commanders the Bengals when

1236
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,160
Speaker 1: they were just in disarray early in the season, and

1237
01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:48,160
Speaker 1: then they had to come back to beat the Giants,

1238
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 1: Like okay, and if you really dig down deep and

1239
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 1: I went back, I just told you. I watched the

1240
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: Washington game. Washington had two picks st. Juice had two

1241
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,160
Speaker 1: picks of Cooper Rush, who has no interceptions in the

1242
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 1: year that were called that were overturned for legal contact.

1243
01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:05,479
Speaker 1: Watching that a hundred and forty penalty yards in that game.

1244
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:09,720
Speaker 1: Go back to the Bengals game. Bengals dropped three interceptions.

1245
01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 1: One was there was a penalty to they just dropped.

1246
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 1: He should have five picks and he is getting very lucky.

1247
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:20,080
Speaker 1: He managed the game well against the Giants and everyone

1248
01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 1: saw that, but he should have about five picks. They've

1249
01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:25,400
Speaker 1: been great in the scripted portion, similar to Tennessee, but

1250
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,000
Speaker 1: with you know, they they have a good they come

1251
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:28,800
Speaker 1: out with a good game plan, but the rest of

1252
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:32,680
Speaker 1: the game, their offense has been absolutely dreadful. Cooper Rush

1253
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 1: reminds me of Kyle Allen twenty nineteen. Cam Newton gets

1254
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 1: hurt after the second game for the Panthers Kyle and

1255
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 1: comes in game three four no straight up, four no

1256
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:45,120
Speaker 1: gets the spread, seven touchdowns, no interceptions. Everyone is on

1257
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: the Kyle Allen bandwagon, but really everyone was just dropping

1258
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:50,280
Speaker 1: interceptions against him, and he's throwing all these awful balls.

1259
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: The rest of the year. He goes one and nine

1260
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:55,000
Speaker 1: uh straight up, one and nine against the spread, ten touchdown,

1261
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:57,640
Speaker 1: sixteen interceptions. The people that are saying that he should

1262
01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: be the quarterback over Dak Prescott, who has thrown for

1263
01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,520
Speaker 1: over five thousand yards or forty touchdowns of the season,

1264
01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:06,439
Speaker 1: are insane. Uh so, Yeah, I think that this line

1265
01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:08,880
Speaker 1: is crazy because of what Cooper Rush has done, what

1266
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:10,840
Speaker 1: we saw from the Rams. Let's but this is a

1267
01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:13,800
Speaker 1: defending Super Bowl Chaps at home against Cooper Rush only

1268
01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,280
Speaker 1: laying four and a half. That's like what the line

1269
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:19,960
Speaker 1: could be if Dr Prescott was playing crazy. Yeah, I

1270
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:22,480
Speaker 1: like the Rams. I'll get you out here on this.

1271
01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:24,200
Speaker 1: I you didn't know this one was coming, but I'm

1272
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,120
Speaker 1: kind of fascinated by this game because then on the

1273
01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 1: flip side of the Niners, right, they had this big win,

1274
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 1: short week, now they got to go on the road.

1275
01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:34,240
Speaker 1: Their defense is awesome. Baker Mayfield looks terrible, but the

1276
01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:37,200
Speaker 1: Panthers defense is actually pretty good. And the Niners, you know,

1277
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 1: I mean, they struggle to score points. So they're they're

1278
01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:44,760
Speaker 1: laying six and a half on the road now while

1279
01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 1: they're going to the East Coast. It's not your typical

1280
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 1: like ten am Pacific Standard time kickoff. It's it's the

1281
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 1: later windows. So that to me helps them out a

1282
01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:54,000
Speaker 1: little bit. But do you think that lines a little big?

1283
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,280
Speaker 1: I'm short in Baker Mayfield, but that's six and a

1284
01:04:57,360 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 1: half points, you know. With the again, the Panthers defense

1285
01:04:59,920 --> 01:05:03,400
Speaker 1: is just pretty good. Yeah, No, I think it's too high.

1286
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,560
Speaker 1: If I can get seven, I'm gonna take the Panthers

1287
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:11,000
Speaker 1: because I mean, Bayfield has been horrendom bad, uh beyond bad.

1288
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:12,920
Speaker 1: The key for the Niners as you get to you

1289
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:17,040
Speaker 1: get to you get to seventeen against Matt Rule and

1290
01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:20,280
Speaker 1: you win that roles one in twenty six when teams

1291
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,280
Speaker 1: get to seventeen points against the Panthers. And I mean

1292
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 1: that also speaks to his quarterback club that he's had

1293
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,080
Speaker 1: when he they hold teams under seventeen, he's ten and

1294
01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:31,240
Speaker 1: oh straight up and tenano against the spread. So um,

1295
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:32,880
Speaker 1: that should be the goal if your forty Niners sad.

1296
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:34,840
Speaker 1: But yeah, Fortner's defense is excellent. By the way, the

1297
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:38,720
Speaker 1: Rams have looked really bad times. The offensive fine is bad,

1298
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,880
Speaker 1: but a lot of what it did look bad as

1299
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 1: they played the Bills and the forty two of the

1300
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,880
Speaker 1: best defenses in the NFL, if not the two best. Um.

1301
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:50,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think it is too high. And if

1302
01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:54,600
Speaker 1: you look historically just against the spread trends, if you're

1303
01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:58,520
Speaker 1: going on a short week after a you know, across

1304
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:02,439
Speaker 1: the country, it's like a fort against the spread after

1305
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:06,840
Speaker 1: it's after an emotional divisional game to revenge, and you

1306
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:10,120
Speaker 1: know it's it's a total. The total is thirty eight.

1307
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,040
Speaker 1: You're catching you catch seven in the NFL at home

1308
01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:16,120
Speaker 1: with a total of thirty eight. I mean this you

1309
01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 1: could was it the Niners a couple of years ago

1310
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 1: that went to I think I had Washington plus ten

1311
01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:25,160
Speaker 1: in the rain? Yeah it was nine nothing and they

1312
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:29,840
Speaker 1: covered but up scoring it. Yeah, that could happen here. Um,

1313
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 1: you know the nine is going six nothing. Yeah, I'm

1314
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:37,920
Speaker 1: with you, Baker Mayfield. I listen. I wasn't the biggest,

1315
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 1: like Colin Coward hater of him, but I thought he

1316
01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 1: would be better, not even just with the Panthers. His

1317
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 1: career is trending towards like he's gonna be calling college

1318
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 1: football games in a couple of years away. This is

1319
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 1: going so uh yeah, Stucky, Uh, enjoy your weekend. Let's

1320
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:53,720
Speaker 1: see if our boy Will Levis can get back on

1321
01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 1: the win column. Kentucky. Tough loss at Ole Miss, but

1322
01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,960
Speaker 1: that was a funny game that was that was enjoyed

1323
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 1: but was not. Yeah, we'll see if he plays, uh

1324
01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:09,760
Speaker 1: the fingers, Yeah, the rumors maybe a boot um and yeah,

1325
01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:11,920
Speaker 1: the line has come down from ten and a half

1326
01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:17,160
Speaker 1: to six, which South Carolina at home. So the line's

1327
01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:22,000
Speaker 1: dropped six points, which means someone probably knows something. Um,

1328
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,000
Speaker 1: So we'll see if he ends up suiting up. UM.

1329
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,400
Speaker 1: I'm still trying to get confirmation of whether or not

1330
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:29,880
Speaker 1: he's going. But the line blowing through ten and seven

1331
01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 1: is uh something that happened in the game or happened

1332
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,880
Speaker 1: in practice, like someone saw him with a boot, um,

1333
01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 1: and he had like the coaches mentioned, he had another

1334
01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:42,680
Speaker 1: injury that's gonna make him questionable. And then there was

1335
01:07:42,680 --> 01:07:44,160
Speaker 1: a rumor out there that he had a boot. I

1336
01:07:44,200 --> 01:07:46,520
Speaker 1: haven't seen a picture or anything or but the line

1337
01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:48,560
Speaker 1: is crashed, So I don't know if someone knows something

1338
01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 1: for sure, but uh, that's certainly something that something to watch.

1339
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 1: But yeah, that was That was a fun game las week. Unfortunately,

1340
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:56,440
Speaker 1: Kentucky had a couple of fumbles at the end. I'll

1341
01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:59,439
Speaker 1: cost them well that the backup right tackle didn't touch

1342
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:02,800
Speaker 1: a soul on the one play, So that's that. Looks

1343
01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,640
Speaker 1: like the rams that well, Stucky, have a good weekend.

1344
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Talk to you soon. Take it easy, bro, Absolutely good luck.

1345
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:31,839
Speaker 1: The volume
