But speaking of rats, Patriots head coach 51 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: Mike Rabel might be on a rat hunt now. Was 52 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: just a day ago reports came out that Jalen Polk 53 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 1: wide receiver gonna miss the season again. You know, Pat 54 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: Patri's had big hopes for him now for a couple 55 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: of years. He's gonna miss the year. And Mike Rabel 56 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: not happy that that information got out, and he talked 57 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 1: about this in his press conference earlier today, saying it's 58 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 1: time for him to sniff out whoever is leaking this 59 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: stuff out to the media. 60 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: Surgery. Can you add anything to that? 61 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: No, I don't know, other than I'd like to find 62 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: out where some of these come from, you know, some 63 00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: of these rats around here. 64 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 3: So we'll figure out out. 65 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 4: Well, the best is that it's not with the rye 66 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 4: smile or the little wink right or the raised eyebrow 67 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 4: like he's you know, channeling his inner rock or insert 68 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 4: de Niro, Paccino, Caitel whomever here. No, no, no, this 69 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 4: was very much a I'm pissed. 70 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: Yeah oh yeah, yeah, I mean just the way he 71 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: threw out there. We'll got to find the rats that 72 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: are that are leaking this out there. I want to say, 73 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: I don't know that it's a rat, but you know, 74 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: agents not saying it's agents, but agents pretty much know 75 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: what's going on with their clients all the time, and 76 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: if someone's hurt not playing, I think they want that information. 77 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: I'm not saying I know who it is, but it 78 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: doesn't need to be rats inside the building. 79 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 3: All the time. 80 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 4: But that's just it though, right, unless there was some 81 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 4: consideration and concern that perhaps in a depth chart kind 82 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 4: of situation, he would have been on the bubble, so 83 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 4: you know, you're you're getting calls as the agent and 84 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 4: representation thereof that, hey you know your guy, you know, 85 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 4: does he have destinations if he doesn't make it there? 86 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 4: But there was no indication that Polk was in that spot, right. 87 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 4: It seemed from anything that I'd looked into this offseason 88 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 4: and certainly heading into camp and starting to do you know, 89 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 4: our fantasy stuff that we do for the iwatcher flex, 90 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 4: that they were banking on him to take on a 91 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 4: bigger role in year two alongside Drake May. So I 92 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 4: don't know that that would have been the case, but yeah, 93 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: I mean it's very easy that the agent just said, yeah, 94 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: he's it doesn't matter because he ain't gonna play the Rats, 95 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 4: So I. 96 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: Gotta get that rats. I want to say this, I 97 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: like Mike Rabel. I think he's absolutely perfect for what 98 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: they need in New England. He's building a great culture. 99 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,359 Speaker 1: I told you how afraid I am that of what 100 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: he's doing. And yeah, culture versus culture, he's doing that great. 101 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: But I gotta say this, are you really just going 102 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: to be this kind of a jerk all the time 103 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: with the media, Like already he is liked that. It's 104 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: like you said, like, like there's a rule. Now, Hey, 105 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: whoever comes in and as the head coach of the Patriots, 106 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: you have to treat the media with disdain and that 107 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: they're beneath you, and that there's you know, they're they're 108 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: working subversively against you. Like I'm done. It's the preseason 109 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: of his first year, man and this is stuff that 110 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: gets out And I'm sorry, Mike Rabel, but when a 111 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: guy gets hurt, information on him gets out there. It's 112 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: I know, you want to make it seem like we 113 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: can keep a lid on it, but you can't do 114 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: that nowadays. I'm sorry, Like, like, I don't want this 115 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: to be the whole thing because I want to be 116 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: able to think Mike Rabel is going to be But nah, 117 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: if he's just gonna continue to be this guy, I'm like, 118 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: come on, man, yeah, really, you really have to be 119 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: this have this much disdain towards the media, which really 120 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: is not working against you. You know, ninety eight percent 121 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: of the media is out there to do their job 122 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: and go home, and they like doing what they do 123 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: for a living. You know, I really here it is 124 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: the rats get a legaty rats are telling people stuff. 125 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 4: It's getting out there. Well, I mean he didn't call 126 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 4: the reporters rats. I mean we had guys do that before. 127 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 3: Oh I'm sorry. Yes, he meant. 128 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: He meant to hold the fifth of State in the 129 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: high esteem. What are he's saying, yeah, find out what 130 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: rat is leaking stuff to you? Yeah? 131 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 3: You know, okay, yeah, yeah, No. 132 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: He doesn't mean he necessarily endgame of it. I mean, 133 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 4: the guy did play in the Belichick. 134 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 3: Warship for a long time. Sure he learned from watching him. 135 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 4: Okay, got to go back and watch your old anti 136 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 4: drug efforts from the advertisers back in the day, folks, 137 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 4: but just the idea that you know, for Vrabel and 138 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 4: in house, they may have had a way they wanted 139 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 4: to message it. 140 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 3: Maybe they had. 141 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,119 Speaker 4: More tests that they thought they would undergo, last ditch 142 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 4: efforts of how quickly we can get a guy back. 143 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 4: But that gets stunted because well, the report gets out 144 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 4: there and then it's done. Right, So now if you're 145 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 4: going to go into the marketplace, because this becomes the 146 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 4: other thing, Right, you're looking at depth chart, You're looking 147 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 4: at guys that might be available. Right, what was the 148 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 4: other story that was circulating all day about potential trades 149 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 4: of wide receivers? Right, so maybe they're in the marketplace. Well, 150 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 4: someone letting the cat out of the proverbial bag that 151 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 4: they're down a man doesn't exactly help them, No, doesn't. 152 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 4: So yeah, I think I'd be a little peeved, not 153 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 4: necessarily at the reporters, but I can understand his vexation. 154 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 3: Here exit out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. 155 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: Jason Smith mink carbon So from rats to the forty 156 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: nine ers trade in the in the NFL today, and 157 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: we was rumored we were gonna hear. 158 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 3: Something like this. 159 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: Brian Robinson, Junior, Washington Commander's running back. It's been the 160 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: talk of the NFL the last couple of weeks, and 161 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: he was on his way out. He wanted out. He 162 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: didn't even dress nor attend their last preseason game, and 163 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: it just seemed like it was a matter of time 164 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: before he got traded. Now he's there starting running back. 165 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: But they do have a lot of depth, They have 166 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: a lot They have some good running backs. I always 167 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: like Chris Rodriguez. I thought they'd give him some more run. 168 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: They got a rookie that they let. Bill is a 169 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: terrific running back. They love Bill in Washington. But they 170 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: make the trade today and they trade Brian Robinson Junior 171 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: to the forty nine ers. And while you think, okay, 172 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: here's the you know, okay, they trade they trade Robinson 173 00:07:59,160 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: to the forty nine ers. 174 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 3: Okay, think about this for a second, because what. 175 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,119 Speaker 1: Does this mean. Robinson's a guy. Who is he He's 176 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: the Najy Harris of the NFC. Right, He's not great, 177 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: but he's young and he's solid. He's gonna give you 178 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: four yards a carry. He's not gonna turn the ball 179 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: over a ton of fumble once or twice a year. 180 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: But he's he's the nausey Harris. Now, clearly Mike Tomlin 181 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: gave him the football way too much in Pittsburgh, and 182 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: it's not like Brian Robinson got the football that much 183 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: with the with Washington. But still he's their number one 184 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: running back. Yes, it's a big move for San Francisco 185 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: because they have their other running backs, you know what, 186 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: one they haven't had all all preseason, and and Grendo 187 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: is still coming back from an injury. So you want 188 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: somebody in back at Christian McCaffrey, who, thankfully for them, 189 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: is healthy. Now, yeah, you could say, well McCaffrey's getting 190 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: a little older. If he hits the wall, they can 191 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: go to a guy who's a little bit younger. They 192 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: have a great backup now, they're the guy that can 193 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: count on. You could say all of these things, but 194 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: look at it this way. Robinson has a pretty good 195 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: amount of talent. You didn't get him to sit him 196 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: on the bench the entire time, right, You didn't get 197 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: him to say, hey, you'll come in if we need you. 198 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: So I see two things coming out of this, which 199 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: is really big deal for San Francisco. He will probably 200 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: spell Christian McCaffrey a little bit more often than you expect, 201 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: because San Francisco is gonna want to keep McCaffrey fresh 202 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: as he gets into the the the end parts of 203 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: his career as a running back, getting older, wanting to 204 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: keep him healthy. So yeah, okay, I expect that a 205 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: little bit. But think about this for a second. So, yeah, 206 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: McCaffrey get into McCaffrey's touch a little bit. But now 207 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: you have two running backs that are gonna get the 208 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: football a ton. You just gave Brock Purdy two hundred 209 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: and sixty million dollars over five years, with nearly two 210 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars of it guaranteed. How much of this 211 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 1: is done? Thinking that the forty nine Ers strategy offensively 212 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: this year is gonna be a lot different than it was, 213 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: not gonna rely on Perdy's right arm like they did 214 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three when he threw thirty touchdowns. Last 215 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 1: year he came all the way down to twenty touchdowns 216 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: still twelve interceptions through thirty eight hundred yards. I wonder 217 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: how much they are taking off of Brock Purty's plate 218 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: and putting on the running backs. And you're gonna see 219 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,479 Speaker 1: a different slant to the game this year because Robinson's 220 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: a little too talented to be the guy to just 221 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: sit there and sit behind Christian McCaffrey and kno get 222 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: on the field more. I wonder if you're gonna go 223 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: back and seeing this Kyle Shanahan sledge hammer passing attack 224 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: like you saw when it was Jimmy Garoppolo taking the 225 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers to the Super Bowl a few years ago, 226 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: when that's what really worked, right, Because this wasn't Garoppolo 227 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: going crazy throwing the football all over the field. This was, Hey, 228 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna run the football a lot, We're gonna make 229 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: sure we control the game. We'll play great defense, and 230 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: our quarterback will make plays when they have to. And honestly, 231 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: that works when it's Jimmy Garoppolo. Does that work when 232 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: you have a quarterback you're paying two hundred and sixty 233 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: million dollars too, that you're gonna suddenly make him a 234 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: little bit less important? And judging by this move today, 235 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: this tells me that we're gonna see the old forty 236 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: nine ers with a little bit less emphasis on brock party. Wow. 237 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 4: I mean, look, the Chargers are paying Justin Herbert a 238 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 4: lot of money. They're not exactly emphasizing him winging the 239 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,599 Speaker 4: ball all over the place. So I could do that 240 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 4: because Frostburg's out here to like, yeah, stuff at me. 241 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 4: Yeah no, I know you're doing that tonight because he's 242 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 4: not here. It would be a different take if he 243 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 4: was here. No, no, I mean say take I just look, 244 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 4: I got a sore neck. I don't know, I woke 245 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 4: up wrong, and so like I'm not if he comes 246 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 4: from my peripheral vision, I'm in trouble today, but okay 247 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 4: where Yeah no, really sore, yeah no, it's like someone 248 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 4: gave me the gave me the crossroads, like Cody Rhades 249 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: got hold of me and then. 250 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: That rolled me a couple of times. Just sore as hell. 251 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 4: But all that to say, you've got Jennings when he's healthy, 252 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 4: Pierce all year two. I you can eventually be back, 253 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 4: so that as the season goes on, you're expecting in theory, 254 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 4: healthier and depth. 255 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 3: A wide received. 256 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 4: Right, George Kittle is there, older but still attacking the 257 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 4: run game. In the Outwatch Flex podcast, Ian Roddy Are 258 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 4: executive producer buyer and I sat and we were doing 259 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 4: our running back ranks, and I got deeper into the 260 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 4: Christian McCaffrey to this point, and this was before the 261 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 4: edition of Robinson, And it makes me feeling even better 262 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 4: about it now, is that, based on where your receiving 263 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 4: corps is, I'm looking for McCaffrey to be back towards 264 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 4: one hundred receptions like he was back in twenty nineteen. 265 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 4: That's gonna be the most effective way to use him. 266 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 4: You bring in Robinson and he's the guy that does 267 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 4: his nausey Harris, as you called it, Sae Chargers. We 268 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 4: tied it all together three point seven to four yards 269 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 4: of carry. But then you got McCaffrey working in the slot. 270 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 4: You got him catching the ball out of the backfield 271 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 4: like he used to, where he's not gonna get pounded 272 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 4: the same way, and so you can keep him healthy, 273 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 4: keep him involved, get his explosiveness back on the field 274 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 4: with a little less of that wear and tear. Being 275 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 4: a three hundred touch back. So the acquisition of Robinson here, 276 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 4: and this showed me I'd be curious what offer, if 277 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 4: any came up from the because the Dolphins were rumored 278 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 4: for a while that they were still going to pretend 279 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 4: to want to play this year with h hand hurt, 280 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 4: and then Jalen Wright left, but I'll e Gordon the 281 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 4: second is now your man for your fantasy draft kits 282 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 4: as you go through. But for the forty nine ers, 283 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 4: yeah it look they're looking for wins. And as much 284 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 4: as we could say, wins aren't a quarterback stat if 285 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 4: Brock Perdy is a nice leisurely twenty five and eight 286 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 4: or twenty five and ten, and they're fighting towards, you know, 287 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 4: hosting a super Bowl this year up there and what 288 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 4: is it, Levi's everybody's gonna be happy. 289 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: Man, I'm telling you that that's something to say. Yeah, 290 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: here you go, Brock, here's two hundred and sixty million, 291 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: and now we're gonna take a little bit off your plate. 292 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 1: Wait wait, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't worrybout it.

Quinn Ewers could have left Texas, 373 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: which you would have had to anyway because you're not 374 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: keeping arch Manning on the bench. But he could have 375 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: got six million dollars, seven million dollars gone someplace else 376 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: to be a quarterback for a top flight CFB, a 377 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: college football playoff team. All these guys could have done that, 378 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: but no, no, they go to the NFL in they're 379 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,719 Speaker 1: drafting the six and seventh round and it's hey, if 380 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: you you're just you're not even a curiosity at this point. 381 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: Like you it's it's not even if you make the roster, 382 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: it would be, hey, it's a bonus. Like, I don't 383 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: know where these guys get this advice where you could 384 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: have one more year in school and as a quarterback 385 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: you could amp up your importance and work on your 386 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: game and get paid. It's your last chance to really 387 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: get paid. And they don't do it. And I see 388 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: guy like mccordy viewers, and I go, wow, man, who 389 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 1: was giving these guys. 390 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 3: Advice that they were gonna get going that high? Really? 391 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 3: Who was gonna do that? 392 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 4: But it's funny because it's the antithesis of what we've 393 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 4: seen from the basketball side. Now, a lot of guys 394 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 4: are still gonna declare they're done with whatever the collegiate 395 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 4: experience or that one year overseas saying hey, I'm gonna 396 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 4: come do this and whatever. But we've seen those numbers 397 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 4: decline the last couple of years. Guys saying, wait, I 398 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 4: can make what playing basketball, even if I bounced to 399 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 4: another school because they've found a better point guard, a 400 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 4: better shooting for, a shooting guard, whatever the case may be, 401 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 4: that I can go do it for quarterbacks.

I'm calling. 411 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 4: And we've seen a number of guys do that. And 412 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 4: you can laugh about the sixth year quarterback or or 413 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 4: with the COVID years where we had the extra years 414 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 4: and guys coming to the league. Right, Chuck is unfortunately 415 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 4: a guy that people are gonna try. 416 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 3: To wear out. Go back and watch some of his 417 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: Louisville tape. The guy can sling it. 418 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 4: Whether it translates, I don't know, but he was a 419 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 4: pretty good college quarterback. So we'll see what happens. But 420 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 4: you take advantage of every year you can. It's a 421 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 4: couple of million bucks at this point for any of 422 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 4: those big schools. And to leave that and and I 423 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 4: get it, maybe you finished your degree. Maybe you're kind 424 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 4: of done with the college experience. You don't want to 425 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 4: Belu Tarski hanging around.

But it's you're 434 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 4: all worthless and weak. But it's just the idea that 435 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 4: if you can extend it for another year. Like it's 436 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 4: like you tell your daughter, I tell my daughters.

There's other parts of it that suck. So 442 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 4: if you could delay, you know, delay those a little 443 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 4: bit and stay in school just a little bit longer. Look, 444 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 4: some folks never leave, they get four or five degrees. 445 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 4: I'm not talking about those people. I'm talking about the 446 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 4: folks that say I could stick around for an extra 447 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 4: six months, maybe add on, get the masters, or or 448 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 4: in this particular case, I don't know, go make another 449 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 4: four million dollars before you become the seventh round pick. 450 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 4: Trying to hang on at the back end of a 451 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 4: roster and then becoming a journeyman. Not a hell with it. 452 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 4: Stay in college the one more year. So appeal to 453 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 4: the NCAA. They actually get through some of these lawsuits 454 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 4: even faster. 455 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 3: Now, I guarantee you. 456 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: Look, Kyle McCord wanted to stay at Syracuse and because 457 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 1: Ohio State burned a year from him by having him 458 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: play in four games. Right now, usually college football rules 459 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: in favor of the player, even in the most egregious 460 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 1: of situations. Right they don't want to see him, but 461 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: we're anti player. We want guys to stick around. We 462 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:43,919 Speaker 1: want especially if they're to stay at school. 463 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 4: Right they're feeding the beast, So anythink that that is 464 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 4: pro college football, they win. 465 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is. 466 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: McCord was going to stay in school and he was 467 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 1: getting you know, and they were waiting for the decision, 468 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:54,719 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden he says, yeah, no, I'm 469 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 1: going to the NFL. 470 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 3: Like wow. 471 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: And I thought at the time, okay, he got a 472 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: great evaluation because you know, look obviously the guy closed 473 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: the ear.

And Caleb Williams is playing, 497 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: and Kelsey and Pachecko. 498 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 3: And like Checko running like he care. Oh dude, Patrick. 499 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 4: Mahomes not just doing a Queen's wave and going back 500 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 4: on the sideline. 501 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: Come on, you had DJ Moore and Roma Doonza and 502 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 3: Rashi Rice. He had all these guys. Now it doesn't matter. 503 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: Look, the Bears won twenty nine to twenty seven, and uh, 504 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: you know, a Tyson Pagent another incredible second half where 505 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: he's a wizard two hundred yards and three touchdowns. Again, 506 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: we'll get to that. We'll get to more on Baijen 507 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: and Caleb Williams coming up in a bit. But here's 508 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: the thing, and this is this is bad news for 509 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 1: the AFC. It's really bad news for the NFL because 510 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: watching the Chiefs play tonight, right, not just about their 511 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: game tonight, but seeing as you mentioned, Isaiah Pacheco running 512 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: like it was the third quarter of the AFC Championship game, 513 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: and here he is, and you know it's the third 514 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: preseason game and he's going to be the lead back 515 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 1: for the for the Chiefs. He looks back and he 516 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 1: is healthy and the receiving options for the Chiefs. This 517 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: is as healthy and active as they've been in quite 518 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: a long time. Right, Kelsey says, rededicated himself like looks 519 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: and I got fat and happy a little bit doing TV. 520 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: But he knows now he's nearing the end. But Rashi 521 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: Rice is back at least until we know what his 522 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: suspension is going to be. But at the first four 523 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: games of the season year two, for Xavier Worthy, who 524 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: was a pretty good weapon, Hollywood Brown right. Taekwon Forton 525 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: had a big catch tonight from Patrick Mahomes. I'm telling 526 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: you this is not People aren't gonna like this, but 527 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: I got a sneaking suspicion. This is the Patrick Mahomes 528 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: revenge year for what we've seen the last two years 529 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: where he turned into a game manager. Because that's really 530 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: what he's been, right, pat the last two years, Mahomes 531 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 1: has been not quite just a guy, but he's been 532 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: a game manager. Now it's worked for the Chiefs because 533 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: they have won. But I mean Patrick Mahomes, the record 534 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: setting quarterback who was throwing thirty seven forty touchdowns a year, 535 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: he's pretty pedestrian. The last two years. His quarterback ratings 536 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: are down, his touchdowns are down the first time. 537 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 3: The last two years of the two full seasons have 538 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 3: been his worst two seasons of his career, and the 539 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 3: Chiefs offense has been different. It's been hey, we're doing 540 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 3: just enough, and Mahomes has really been a glorified game manager. 541 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: Now, why is this? You go back last couple of years. 542 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: We've seen the Chiefs go through different iterations at wide 543 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: receiver room that just haven't worked out. Right, This is 544 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: Juju Smith Schuster back for a second go round. So 545 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: they've tried different weapons. They completely overhaul their wide receiver 546 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: room from year to year and it hasn't worked. But 547 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: now with everybody back from injury, right, Rice is hell again. 548 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 3: Right. 549 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 1: The suspension probably four games, maybe it gets cut down 550 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 1: to two or three, depending where we go, but he's 551 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: gonna play the beginning of the year. They have other 552 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: weapons here. This is as healthy and ready to go 553 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: as this offense has been in three years. And this 554 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: is where Patrick Mahomes reminds everybody. Oh, I used to 555 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: be the best quarterback in the NFL, Barnunn, and I 556 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 1: still am. And here's another forty touchdown year to remind 557 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 1: you all that this is who I used to be. 558 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: What I would throw for forty eight hundred yards and 559 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 1: forty touchdowns, and I would flip the ball behind my 560 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: back or throw it lefty like. Just seeing the Chiefs 561 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 1: and seeing how they're attacking this preseason, this tells me 562 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: that this is going to be the Patrick Mahomes revenge. 563 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: Hear and he's back to the quarterback that he was 564 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: three years ago. 565 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 4: It is the curiosity because he is still a guy 566 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 4: who Mahomes that is being drafted as the number five 567 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 4: or six quarterback on average in most leagues. So as 568 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 4: if we look at it moving forward, right, it depends 569 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 4: how much you love we talk about some of the 570 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 4: guys that use their legs a bunch more when you 571 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 4: look at Jayden Daniels, you look at Jalen Hurts, or 572 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 4: you look at a guy like Joe Burrow, and what 573 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 4: we're expecting with another shoddy defensive effort from that squad. 574 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 4: As much as we love all the principal components on 575 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 4: the offense, that the offensive line still suspect. So maybe 576 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,719 Speaker 4: Joe Burrow bounces up or down your list a little bit. 577 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 4: But Patrick mahomes right there. And last year was the 578 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 4: if you can get them, you get them here, right, 579 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 4: because they didn't have all those offensive weapons Kelsey, the argument. 580 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 3: Was he wasn't in shape. 581 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 4: Well, he had a pretty good year if his name 582 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 4: wasn't Travis Kelcey when you talk about his yards and reception. 583 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 4: Now in the red zone, he was neutralized a bit 584 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 4: easier than he had been in the past, not being 585 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 4: able to fight a way to create space. But they 586 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 4: shifted and now you're looking at a defense that's top notch, right, 587 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 4: probably by most analysts, ranked as a top five unit. There, 588 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 4: you look at it with Carl Loftus and the guys 589 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 4: up front still Reacan havoc. Now you look at the 590 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 4: receiving corps as you laid out all of those principles, 591 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 4: Kelsey back and rededicated. 592 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 3: Look, he's got. 593 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 4: Things so good that Taylor Swift's gonna go back to 594 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 4: ballads and happy in poppy music instead of I hate 595 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 4: this guy and let me bury him. By the way, 596 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 4: I think she released another limited edition color palette today. 597 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 3: No, I'm just kidding. I thought. 598 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: You see that's something I would have believed. You saying 599 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: that I believe I was already done. 600 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 4: Believe three times she's gone back to the well three 601 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 4: times already and they sell out immediately. 602 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 3: My god, getting deeper in your pocket. 603 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 4: But all of that to say, you've got a couple 604 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 4: of running backs that get it done. So as long 605 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 4: as the offensive lines game, the defense is going to 606 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 4: give him from advantageous field position and you're gonna have 607 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 4: opportunities to go and wing it around. So yeah, the 608 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 4: last couple of years a bit pedestrian in terms of 609 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,239 Speaker 4: the numbers. You got those speedsters on the outside look 610 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 4: at what he was able to do with Xavier Worthy 611 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 4: the second half of the year. If he is there 612 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 4: and Rice doesn't miss too much time, curious to see 613 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 4: how many games he ultimately gets when that decision comes down. 614 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,959 Speaker 4: I mean, you've got depth that wide receiver for the 615 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 4: first time in a while, and while the division has 616 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 4: gotten a lot harder, you still got to go take 617 00:28:58,960 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 4: your swing at the King. 618 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh look, and it's like you look. Pete fu 619 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: Tech college football analyst joined us last week and said, listen, 620 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: I'm stock up on arch Manning and I'm stock down 621 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: on Texas because I don't know the Texas can survive 622 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: this schedule, right. All they got to do is stuff 623 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: if they stubbed their toe week one, which is a 624 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: really difficult game. Like I feel like I'm stock up 625 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: on Mahomes stock down on the Chiefs because that division 626 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: is just so absolutely loaded. But offensively, yeah, it's gonna 627 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: be back to if we're gonna beat the Chiefs, we 628 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: gotta put points on the board. 629 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 3: Now. 630 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: Both both the Chargers and the Broncos can do that. Defensively, 631 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: they're both really strong. But you know, so again, any 632 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: one of those three teams can win the division, but 633 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: the Patrick Mahomes bounce back to Patrick Mahomes middle finger 634 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: revenge tour, blank you I'm still great. Yeah, No, that's 635 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: gonna happen this year. I feel I feel bad for 636 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: the rest of the AFC, including you know, the Jets. 637 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: I feel bad that that's what's gonna happen because it 638 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: was nice to and when you thought Mahomes was just 639 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: gonna settle his way into being a nice game manager 640 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: in twenty five twenty six touchdowns a. 641 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 3: Year and hoping at the end of his career say 642 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 3: I got more Super Bowls than Brady. I got more. Look, 643 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 3: I got more. I'm the goat. I'm the real goat 644 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 3: right here. Let me wait, let me just check social media. 645 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 3: Did Douc Jackson? Did you say anything? 646 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 4: Dad? 647 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: Did? 648 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 3: Dude? Okay? Great?

Like 823 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: I can't get over how much, Uh, it feels like 824 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 1: everything around the Bears is like we're ready to move 825 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 1: on from Caleb Williams. It's not gonna happen. Everything's gonna 826 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 1: be fine. But Mike, I can't convince anybody of that. 827 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry. 828 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you're not gonna convince me that. 829 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 4: You know, there's the dooming glooms side of it either, 830 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 4: Like I think it's just pragmatism of a guy that 831 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 4: wants to be there a guy that's thankful. If you 832 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 4: got a guy that you give him a two year, 833 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 4: ten million dollar deal and he's breaking down to that level, 834 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 4: that's your guy, right, that's a guy who's who's all 835 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 4: in on what you're doing and what you're selling. And 836 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 4: if you've seen it in the classrooms, like why not 837 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 4: lock him up at the quarterback position? Dollar cost averaging 838 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 4: he and Caleb Williams. You're paying nothing to the room 839 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 4: for the next two years. And guess what if it 840 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 4: does break right, you get a bunch of people knock 841 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 4: knock knocking on your door saying, hey, we'd really like 842 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 4: this Tyson major guy. You know, like the Bears, your 843 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 4: competitive middle of the season, and you've decided, hey, Caleb's 844 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 4: flowing along nicely in Ben Johnson's offense, and these guys 845 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 4: are desperate for a quarterback. Maybe just maybe you go 846 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,919 Speaker 4: and you find something in the shopping aisle that'll help 847 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 4: you there. But yeah, I think a lot of it's Look, 848 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 4: we're we're looking for big headlines in the preseason and 849 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 4: and this has constituted a huge one. I still don't 850 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 4: think even at two years, sixteen million dollars that's a 851 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 4: ton of ton of money. I mean, you got other 852 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 4: backups that make some pretty good coin hanging around. 853 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,240 Speaker 1: Well, okay, well Kirk Cousins is different. 854 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 4: Okay, but I mean he's a different He's a different, 855 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 4: different animal in the in this whole thing I'm just 856 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 4: talking from. If you think you've got a guy that 857 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,800 Speaker 4: you want to keep in your building, how many teams 858 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 4: have that luxury to where they look at the number 859 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,919 Speaker 4: two guy and say, if we had to go down 860 00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,760 Speaker 4: this road, it would not be an ad jack failure 861 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,720 Speaker 4: and disaster. I'm going on the fact that the Bears 862 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 4: are at that point where they feel like they've got 863 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 4: a guy in Bagent, like, we'd love for this guy 864 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 4: to just be part of what we're doing. 865 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 3: Let's leave the questions off. 866 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 4: He's the first guy to get a multi year extensions 867 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,720 Speaker 4: to Jake Cutler for crying out loud. 868 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: But look, but that's the thing is this is a 869 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 1: guy that eventually he's he's in the NFL to play. 870 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: He wants to play. He doesn't want to I get 871 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,479 Speaker 1: the money's there if he knows it, Hey, I'm gonna 872 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: get you. No, I want to go free.
