15
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: I'm Dale Lolly here with Matt Williamson and Matt uh Roethlisberg.

16
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger retires as one of just uh, there's only

17
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: four quarterbacks in NFL history who won more Super Bowls. Yeah, obviously,

18
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 1: Terry Bradshaw is one of those. Uh. It always it's

19
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: one of the things that always drives me crazy. But well,

20
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: the Steelers should have won more super Bowls. With super bowls.

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: I've said this twenty times more right, all right, like

22
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees. I bet most of our listeners

23
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: think they had better careers in bed. I think Rogers did,

24
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,479
Speaker 1: I think Breezes up in the air. They got one each, guys.

25
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,199
Speaker 1: You know what I mean like getting multiple is Far've

26
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: got one? Far got one? Yeah, I mean he's awesome.

27
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: You know, I'd like to go outside the city once

28
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: in a while and compare some of these people. You

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: gotta take a look around. Yeah. I bring this up

30
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: because well, Adam Rank did a thing on NFL dot

31
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: com ranking the quarterbacks who have two or more the

32
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: multi how twelve who have two or more? So, folks,

33
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: football has have played a long time and we're what

34
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: super Bowl fifty or something coming somewhere like in the

35
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: mid fifties, and twelve of them have two or more.

36
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: So that's pretty elite companies, pretty elite company. So he

37
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: ranked him here. I have to disagree with him a

38
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: little bit from where he ranked Roethlisberg. Let's fight it out.

39
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: So he's got Bob Greasy number twelve mm, Okay, that

40
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: sounds yeah, I mean I didn't study Greasy, but the

41
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: people that did that, I've seen real caretaker, very few

42
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: pass attempts, I mean, very smart, different era. Yeah, a

43
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: Shula type guy though, I mean was always known as

44
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: like the least penalized team in the league and Aidzonca

45
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: and Kick and Morris and those guys. But it was

46
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: a really good I mean with the Pro Bowls. It

47
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: wasn't like he was a nobody, right, and he might

48
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: Yeah he had eleven is Jim Plunkett. Huh. Some people

49
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: loved the Plunkett. I guess he was a phenomen at

50
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: Stanford first overall pick, first overall pick, and kind of

51
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: washed out with the it's a little bit yeah, and

52
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: then went and then went to the Raiders and won

53
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: a couple of Super bowl couple super Bowls. But I

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: don't remember him being like the driving force of the team. No,

55
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: but he was a good quarterback. Quarterback. He's not a

56
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. He's the only one on this list

57
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: who's not eligible. One is not a Hall of Famer.

58
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: The multiple doesn't come across to me as a Hall

59
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 1: of Yeah, you know, uh he has Roethlisberger at ten. Ten? Wow? Ten?

60
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: I mean I I don't know the other to nine

61
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: names off the top of my head, but he wouldn't

62
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 1: be ten for me. I know that much already. Well,

63
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: I guarantee you. I'll bet you have him higher than

64
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: the guy who's at nine. I'm sure Eli Manning. See,

65
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 1: come on, Adam Rank, you are a moron that nobody

66
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: in their right mind if we were having a pick up,

67
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: if you're choosing quarterbacks right now, no one takes Elive.

68
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: Nobody's taking Eli. No, I mean the best at their career,

69
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: the best that they were. Which one are you taking?

70
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger or Eli? You take Roethlisberger every day of

71
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: the week, let alone the body of work. I mean

72
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: he lasted longer. I mean he did it for longer,

73
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: one way, more games. He has better lifetime stats, let

74
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: alone on his best day, which I don't think are

75
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: even close. Bradshaw is gonna come up on this list.

76
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: Of course I would put Ben over Bradshaw. But there's

77
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: a conversation there. I mean they're much different, eras, etcetera.

78
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: Brady and Eili were draft the same year, or Ben

79
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: and Eli were aft in the same year. Their careers

80
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: matched up. Both in the Northeast. You know, it's not

81
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: the breeze conversation. He's one of these guys. He's one

82
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: of these guys that save Roethlisberger was a game manager

83
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: in the Super Fer super Bowl win. That's bs. They

84
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: don't get to that super Bowl without Roethlisberger playing his

85
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: butt off in the playoffs that year. Yeah. I mean

86
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: people that write these type of articles and say that

87
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: about that super Bowl team will cite his stats in

88
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: the super Bowl only. I don't get there without him

89
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: being really a strong player, right, I don't know. I

90
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: think Rivers is better than Eli. He gives Eli th

91
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: not because he beat Tom Brady twice in the Super Bowl.

92
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who you're playing. I don't care. It's

93
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: not a boxing match. Not only that, but it was

94
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: as much about their defense, the Giants defense being a

95
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 1: nice a licks or for the Patriots as much as anything.

96
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: I never thought Eli was the top five quarterback in

97
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: the league ever. At any point in his career. Ben

98
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: was year after year number eight, Roger stallback. I would

99
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: probably have him higher. He's one of my crushes and

100
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: just way ahead of his time. I think I'd probably

101
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: have Roger higher. Number seven Troy Aikman, Roger over Ackman.

102
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: Akman's pretty strong. I think got a Ben over Ackman. Though, Yeah,

103
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: Eli is not in the conversation with any of those guys.

104
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,559
Speaker 1: You know, Elion might be. He might. You could argue

105
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: he's closer to twelfth on this list than he is.

106
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: I think he's Those bottom three are all in the

107
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: same conversation. Yeah, Six is Peyton Manning. That's pretty good.

108
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean, this still tells you what kind of list

109
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: this is. I mean, I understand that, but I'm not

110
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: sure there's five better quarterbacks in the history of the

111
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: league than Peyton Manning. Five is Bart Starr, and Bart

112
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: Star is not one of them. I mean, with all

113
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 1: respect of Art Star, I mean I understand he won

114
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 1: championships with four, the Super Bowl, all those things. Again,

115
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: the different you're comparing different eras here too. Yeah, but

116
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: if you put Joe average quarterback on those teams, I

117
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: bet they did pretty well. I mean, they have a

118
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 1: million Hall of Famers and they ran the ball like crazy,

119
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 1: and you know that's fine. But I'll think, I mean,

120
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to play his part Star than Roger

121
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: Stalwalk four as Bradshaw. It's a little high for t B.

122
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I mean Bradshaw is better than Peyton Manning.

123
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: I don't disagree. Three is John Elway. I'm pretty big

124
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: Elway believer. Being three in the Super Bowl. By the way,

125
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: what's not two and three and three? He was oh

126
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: and three? He was over three, al right. He was

127
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: Jim Kelly Land there for a while. Uh. Two is

128
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 1: Joe Montana, Okay and right. I got no problems with that.

129
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: I have problems from three through ten. Yeah, I would

130
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: not have him in that order. And Ben's the really

131
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: the I'd have been over Bradshaw. I I would too.

132
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: I think it's different here. I think he's a more talented,

133
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: better player. I know people well, Bradshaw called his own

134
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: plays and he had a rifle for an arm. That's great.

135
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 1: Those things are true. It could be. I'm not just

136
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm not discounting what Bradshaw did it at all. But

137
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger on those teams from the seventies, yeah, right, right right,

138
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: And again, not cutting on Bradshaw one bit, but those

139
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: first two, the first two super Bowls, he was along

140
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: for the ride for the first Super Bowl a seventy four.

141
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: He wasn't even a full time starter that year, right right,

142
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: all right, yeah exactly. He happened to start the Super

143
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: Bowl for the started the super Bowl. But that's the Yeah.

144
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: I mean, he has four rings, and he deserves him,

145
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: and he should be in the Hall of Fame, and

146
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 1: he should be high on that list. I'd rather Ben

147
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: had a better career, sorry, and his highs were higher

148
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: than than bratch On in my opinion. I can't. I can't. Mean,

149
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: that's a pretty good list of some great players. Um yeah,

150
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: I mean just to be on that list is obviously

151
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: a uh. What's interesting would probably be who are the

152
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: best guys not on that list? You know, like if

153
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: you want to give the Steelers and been a hard time,

154
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: they only one too? Well, I didn't hear Aaron Rodgers

155
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: names Dan Marino, I mean, far Breeze. Some of the

156
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 1: best players that have ever lived aren't on that list.

157
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: It's a it's an exclusive fraternity. Yeah, no, I I

158
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: agree completely. I think people maybe my homes ends up

159
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: on that list, you know, but not yet, not yet

160
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: right right right? Um, you know, and he may he

161
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: may get there. He may get there this year. He

162
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: may get there this year, But I mean I'm not

163
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: sure if anyone else gonna be on that list anytime

164
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: soon besides my homes. And you know we've we've talked

165
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,719
Speaker 1: about this. I mean, after this year, things get a

166
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: little more difficult, right, long salary captll kicks in, you

167
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: know that it getting back? Can you get back to

168
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: multiple super Bowls now after you're paying your quarterback and

169
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 1: you're picking twenty four or later every year too? Right? Yeah? Absolutely?

170
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: And you can't go make a move like they did

171
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 1: the trade up for my homes or to go get

172
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: a big ticket item. And I mean I have faith

173
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs will be just fine, but it's awfully

174
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: hard to do. Like the Browns are fight facing that

175
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: without the upside, without the winds, right you know. I

176
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: mean the Ravens have dealt with it for years, but

177
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: they didn't have a quarterback. Well I guess Flacco didn't

178
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: make big money. Probably shouldn't know. But you're quarterbacks making

179
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: that much money and you're picking that late year after

180
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: year after year. I mean it you still't have the

181
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: same resource everybody else does. Yeah, I agree, Um so

182
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 1: it I just look at it and and you know,

183
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: ship what you had. Yeah, that's definitely like everyone did.

184
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: No I don't think so either. I think you know

185
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: that you really have to do that if you if

186
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: you're looking at um. I mean, I'll be the first

187
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: to admit that the last two years weren't vintage Ben,

188
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: but especially this one, but before that it seems like

189
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: a long time ago, but it was such a long

190
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: stretch of having the best quarterback on the field of

191
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: his games, you know, I mean what advantage that is?

192
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 1: Or like you said a couple of times, like people

193
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: change the way, people change the way they build their team,

194
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: or attack their game where we can't have it in

195
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: Ben's hands in the last two minutes or we're gonna lose.

196
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: Or I love what Daniel Jeremiah was saying the other

197
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: day about you know, when he was scouting for the Ravens,

198
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: we couldn't get undersized speed defensive ends because they would

199
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: bounce off Ben. You know, like we needed guys who

200
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 1: were to seventy coming off the edge. Angel. We changed

201
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: the way in the play. We had to change the

202
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: way we scouted, the way we team built, the way

203
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: we play. Like that's definition of a Hall of Famer

204
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: to me. Yea Um, if you look at of course,

205
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: the Steelers haven't been to a Super Bowl since the

206
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: Super Bowl that losing to the Packers. Since then, you've

207
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: had the Giants, the Ravens, the Seahawks, the Patriots, Broncos, Patriots, Eagles, Patriots, Chiefs,

208
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: and Buccaneers win the Super Bowl. That's eleven two super

209
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: Bowls now. Of those of those quarterbacks who won the

210
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,959
Speaker 1: Super Bowl in the last dozen years, in the last

211
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,719
Speaker 1: dozen years, only two were first round picks for their

212
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: current team. Homes and I'm not sure Faco Flaco, Okay, interesting,

213
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson third round pick, Brady a sixth round pick.

214
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: Manning wasn't picked by the the first round pick by

215
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: but not by the Broncos. Um Nick Foles won the

216
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: Super Bowl for the Eagles. You know, there's right. So

217
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: you know when people say, well, you have to have

218
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: a first round quarterback to replace Ben Roethlisbury, I don't

219
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: know that you do. You have a better chance when

220
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 1: you do it that way, but you don't. It's not necessary.

221
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: I don't think it's necessary. No, I'll stress this a

222
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: lot this summer, more than I ever have though that

223
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: in the quest for the next quarterback, I'm gonna take

224
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: my cuts, you know, like I'm gonna bet on I'm

225
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: wrong about that. By the way, Eli one one was

226
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: well there, so okay, Well he wasn't drafted by his

227
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: team though that's true, all right, he was. Um No,

228
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna swing for upside. You know, when if

229
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: I'm torn between picking or Willis and I have equal

230
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: grades on them, I'm gonna go for the crazy talented one.

231
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: I mean, just to keep up in the a f C.

232
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: And if you swing and miss, so be it. But

233
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: I don't want to be stuck in kirk cousins Land. No,

234
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: nor do I know. Um but the you know, the

235
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: Jim Plunket conversation that we just had is an interesting one.

236
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: Recycling guys recycle a former first round trappic of first

237
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: overall pick. The guy obviously has talent, right, which leads

238
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: us back to the Mariotta Urbisky Winston conversation, which is

239
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: the path I would be most apt to go down.

240
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: I think, considering weighing cost first, upside give him in

241
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 1: a different environment, still young, loads of ability. All three

242
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: of those guys were picked in the top three overall,

243
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: you know, like you gotta have something there, right. They

244
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: may have failed, and they still might, but you don't

245
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 1: have that much invested, right, you haven't. You haven't traded

246
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: away picks, were done the things necessary because the Steelers

247
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: is arn't Rooney against stressed today. They're not going to

248
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: give up the idea that they're going to try to

249
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: win a super Bowl every year. Oh, I'm sure that's

250
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: the goal every year, right, I mean, that's just not

251
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: lip service either. And you know, we may not believe

252
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: every year that they're super Bowl contender, but they do.

253
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 1: In the truck team, they're going to try to exact way,

254
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: in that exact manner. They're building their team to try

255
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 1: to win. Now. And I bet some people out there like, well,

256
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: doesn't everyone try to win Super Bowl every year? Yeah?

257
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: Everyone tries hard every year to try to win, but

258
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: not every owner top priorities winning the Super Bowl. Let's

259
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: just say that, you know, like the checks keep coming

260
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: in one way or another. There's ten to fifteen complacent

261
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: teams in the league. We've all seen Major League. There's

262
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of that in the league. And

263
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: the things all come together, right, great super Bowl would

264
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: be cherry on top, but pockets are full. We're pretty happy,

265
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: you know, I know, the one year and this was

266
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: you know the Buccaneers um just missed the playoffs one year.

267
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: This is when Raheem Morris was their head coach, just

268
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: missed the playoffs, who went nine and seven. So their

269
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: whole monstra of the entire next off season was to

270
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: get to ten wins so they'd make the playoffs. Zack,

271
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: I bet that would not be cool. Life's and adventure

00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: games next year and still didn't make the playoffs Like

286
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: the idea, you win your division first, that's what you know,

287
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: that's the first goal that you always look to. In

288
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger always gave them a chance to do that. His

289
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: success against the divisions insane. Yeah, I mean it really is.

290
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't think of many others and I

291
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: don't have the numbers besides Brady and Mahomes that have

292
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: just the division. And frankly, this division is better than

293
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: the one Brady faced for much of his career. He

294
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: probably gets some of that in Green Bay. You definitely

295
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: get a lot of that Dame Bay. I mean definitely.

296
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: I mean Rogers, I own you, you know, decimated the

297
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: Lions and Bears for years. You know. But total side note,

298
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: and I know we want to stick with Ben. If

299
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: Brady retires and Rogers gets traded, those two divisions are

300
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: gonna be like eight of the worst teams in the league. Yeah,

301
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: I mean, like it's shifts going on right now in

302
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: the league's retirement. You know, I brought this up to

303
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: uh to Haley actually before he even knew that, as

304
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: I mentioned in previous segment, before I knew Ben was retiring.

305
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: If Brady does retire, yeah, um, there are going to

306
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: be some people on the selection board. Well, Brady's got

307
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: to have his own, his own day. He can't have

308
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: another quarterback criminal to me, Yeah, and that's largely what

309
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: what Todd said, Like, look this this Ben's the first

310
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: pilot Hall of Famer this period. End of sentence. Yeah,

311
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: I don't care who else is on the ballot. Adrian

312
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: Peterson is probably gonna be on the ballot too, He

313
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: should go in. Yeah, I don't care if there's another

314
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: good back or not, doesn't matter, right, right, right, So

315
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: I looked it up. There have been some other instances

316
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: where you've had great quarterbacks to Yeah, in the same class.

317
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: Dan Marino and Steve Young both went in together in

318
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: two thousand five. Keep either of those kids out. Troy

319
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: Aen and Warren Moon both went in together in two

320
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: thousand and seeing people saying we'll hold off on Moon.

321
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: He doesn't have a Super Bowl, played a lot in

322
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: CFL early on, but he's he's a Hall of Famer.

323
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: You can't say Marino and Young right right, belonging all

324
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 1: I mean they're Marino, I mean to me, Marino, Ben,

325
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 1: all those guys are no brainers. Never mind, you know

326
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 1: they're all no brainers. But yeah, yeah, I mean it's

327
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: it's a it's an easy choice. So ye seven Steeler fans,

328
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: get your get your cars ready to get fired up

329
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: to go up to Can't and make some reservations. That

330
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: make some reservations, get your get your get your hotels

331
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: book now, because that's gonna happen. Interesting stuff. I mean,

332
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure you could tell stories. I go back this

333
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: well a lot like my three years a pit, two

334
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: of them are with Larry Fitzgerald, and that was an

335
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: honor to watch him. But practices were better, having to

336
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 1: be honest with you, I mean, he was an eighteen

337
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: year old kid sky and over future corners that we're

338
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: gonna play in the league, and you know it was

339
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: he did it routinely. I'm sure Ben practiced stuff. There's

340
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: a lot of instances over the years. WHOA, what a

341
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: throw that was? You know, the stuff no one else saw.

342
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: It would be really interesting to me too. Yeah, you

343
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 1: know the way that he executed the scramble drill um

344
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: where you know, now again people talk about it with

345
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 1: the homes were they practiced a scramble drill and guys

346
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:54,280
Speaker 1: nowhere to go again? This is not new stuff of this, right,

347
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,719
Speaker 1: exactly and I'm not even sure how much you how

348
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,200
Speaker 1: do you practice it? You don't know what the defense

349
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: is gonna do when the when the all impromptu. I mean,

350
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's some themes. Hey a b take it,

351
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: take it vertical, on on it here. I mean, I

352
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 1: got I got the arm to get you there, right.

353
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: That's the thing too, It's just after a while, you

354
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: just have to have the natural ability to make those

355
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: throws late in the down because it's become strap backyard football.

356
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: All the rules are out, and some people just can't

357
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: not just not even just the ability to do so,

358
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: because lots of quarterbacks have the ability to do it,

359
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: but the guts to do it. Guts again, that's like

360
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: if there was, if there was ever a stat and

361
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: there never will be, the throw you should make that

362
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: they don't. Ben would be pretty good on that one,

363
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like there's a lot of

364
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: Alex Smith or I really remember teddy Bridgewater with the

365
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: Panthers two years ago. D J. Moore is running free

366
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: fifty yards down field and he dumps at the mccaffreck

367
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: like playing it safe stuff. You know, you never had

368
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: to worry about Roethlisberger playing it safe. No, No, I

369
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,959
Speaker 1: mean he's gonna shot every bullet in his gun, you know.

370
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: And I think he used every ounce of his body too.

371
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean, no one. I've said this a couple of times.

372
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: No one's got more out of there of what they

373
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: were giving at birth than him. He got every ounce

374
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: of it, and he's gonna feel it for us of

375
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: his life. I mean, did you see the video by

376
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: the way that he put out. He put a video

377
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 1: out with his family and he's sitting on his couch

378
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: with his wife and children, and the look on his

379
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 1: youngest son's face was just priceless, like he was visibly upset.

380
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: The dad was retiring, and the entire like like the

381
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: the other kids are just kind of sitting there, stone face,

382
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: but but they're not happy. But there, you know, Hey,

383
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: dad's gonna be around more often. And Bodi Roethlisberger sitting

384
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: there at the end of the couch and he's got

385
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: a frown on his face like he just found out.

386
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: I hope there's no kids listening, there's no Santa Claus. Yeah,

387
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: It's it's like when man, I'll never forget Johnny Diggins

388
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 1: comes back from Empire, strikes back. Hey, Matt Darth. Vader's

389
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: Luke's dad. He was like three years older than me.

390
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: Beat the crap out of him, Like, come on that

391
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 1: that's the worst thing ever. Yeah, I feel bad for

392
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: a little huge cinematic reveal. Yeah, I mean there was

393
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 1: no or anything back then, even though I was a

394
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: way to hurt my feelings. Vader means father in German.

395
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,959
Speaker 1: You know, that's a little hint. I didn't know that

396
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 1: as a seven year old or whatever, but there you have.

397
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, but he is going to get

398
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: to spend more time with the family and he's not

399
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 1: going anywhere. He's a Pittsburgh. Yeah, that's very cool, and

400
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: I'm really happy he didn't do a year Franco in Seattle,

401
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I hate that. Look, you know,

402
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: I was worried Brady was going to look that way.

403
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 1: And I mean it doesn't always end up well, almost

404
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: always in almost Yeah, I mean, Nameth is a ram

405
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: and a men, right, I mean there's many instances and

406
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: it's never good. Yeah, So good for him. He gets

407
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,639
Speaker 1: to go out on his own accord. And uh, you know,

408
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 1: I think you know, people, this can't be overstated enough. Um,

409
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 1: he couldn't retire last year after last season in front

410
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: of no fans all season long. Yeah, I hadn't thought

411
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: of that. I mean one of the you know that

412
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: he mentionship with the fans several times over the last

413
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 1: two years. That how weird it was coming out of

414
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: that in hines Field and there's no standing, there's nobody,

415
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: nobody there. It just would be one of the things

416
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: he misses mostly die on the list, you know, right, question,

417
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: that's why the Rolling Stones still tour. They don't need Yeah,

418
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: they don't need the money, but they still enjoy playing

419
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: to the crowd. Yeah, tell Mickey, can't Mick dancing around

420
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,919
Speaker 1: in the bathroom just doesn't have the same you know,

421
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 1: singing in the shower start me up. So I'm sure

422
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: I've been throwing the nerve in the backyards. I gonna

423
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: be the same. Yeah, there's nobody yelling there. But who

424
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: gets to spend more time with his children? Uh, get

425
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 1: to watch them grow up and they get to remember

426
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: him as well as a player. I think that was

427
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: part of it as well. And it really really seems

428
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 1: like Ben's embraced this going out party too, you know,

429
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 1: and he's handled it very in a very classy manner

430
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: and talking about his faith in his family and fatherhood

431
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: and things like that, and his memories and appreciation of

432
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: the city and the Rooneys and the organization and all

433
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 1: that stuff. So it's been cool. Yeah, I definitely got

434
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: to watch a guy kind of grow up and grow

435
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 1: into the leadership position. It was twenty two years old

436
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 1: when he came here. Yeah, I mean just seeing pictures

437
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: of his rookie year just on the news or whatever,

438
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 1: it's like, wow, I mean, imagine how much he's changed

439
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 1: and you know what a different uh body composition and everything,

440
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: you know, just matured so much over those years. And yeah,

441
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: phenomenal player. Yeah. Um, So the Steelers will begin the

442
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: process of finding that replacement. They'll be at the Senior

443
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: Bowl next week. Um as well. I will get a

444
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: lot of intel from down there as much as we can. Yeah,

445
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 1: there's five and maybe even six quarterbacks down there that

446
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: are stainly of interest. That would be that will be

447
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: all six quarterbacks who were there you know, in the

448
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,239
Speaker 1: in the in the hunt, and five of them are

449
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: even you know, first round type guys. So, um, again,

450
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: this is Ben's moment. But I think this quarterback class

451
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: is being slept on a little bit to these rookies,

452
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: like everyone's like, oh, it's crappy quarterback class, can't get

453
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: out of it. It might not be a stud I

454
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,040
