He suffered shoulder 63 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 5: and toe injuries in the opening win against the Seattle Seahawks, 64 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 5: and his head coach, Kyle Shanahan was asked by the 65 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 5: media about his quarterback status heading into week two. Any 66 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 5: further sense about whether Brock will be able to play 67 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 5: on Sunday. 68 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 6: I dance a long shot possible if. 69 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 7: Purdy's injury could be a multi week thing and. 70 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 5: That's the toe more so than the shoulder. 71 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 6: Yes, did someone's up on his foot in the pocket. 72 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 4: Do you know how the toe injury happened? 73 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it happened scrambling. I think when I'll 74 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 5: Love tackle him by the sideline. I believe it happened. 75 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 5: We was playing through that in the game. 76 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 4: Or is just something you found. 77 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 6: Out later that was where? 78 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 79 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 5: You know what that means. If Brock Party can't give 80 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 5: it a go, you know what that means. 81 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 8: Return of the Mac baby, Mac Jones, step right up, 82 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 8: Come on, Yes, the guy Kyle Shanahan wanted years ago, 83 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 8: but John Lynch was like, now, let's give up three 84 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 8: first round picks to go up and draft Trey Lance. 85 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 4: It's all right, Kyle shan Yeah. 86 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 5: Kyle Shannon's like, no, I gotta get me some Mac Jones. 87 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 5: And here we are, Mac Jones with an opportunity to 88 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 5: not start just one game against the awful New Orleans Saints, 89 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 5: but maybe more than that based on the severity of 90 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 5: the injuries to Brock Purty. 91 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 4: Yeah. 92 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm excited to see what Mac Jones can 93 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: do in the system. Same thing I said back when 94 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,239 Speaker 2: Sam Darrng got a shot to operate in the system 95 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: like this is one of those systems, similar to Kevin O'Connell. 96 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: Minnesota guys go in, they ball out, they tend to 97 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 2: play really, really well. 98 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 4: So excited to see what mac Jones can do. 99 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: I think he's perfectly suited and can do all the 100 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 2: things that Kyle Shanahan wants him to do. He's there 101 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: for a reason. So I don't think this is a dear, 102 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: I said, I don't think it's a downgrade, Like what 103 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: what do you guys feel like brock Purty can. 104 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 4: Do that much better than Matt Jones. He's a little more. 105 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 5: Fleet of foot maybe, uh yeah, maybe. And and also 106 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 5: brock Purdy's been injured a lot during the course of 107 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 5: his time as a starter. I know he's at the 108 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 5: biggest guy in the world, and I just I think 109 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 5: that that's part of the discussion as to do does 110 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 5: he warrant getting the contract that he got from the Niners. 111 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 5: Is his durability has been in question, and we're one 112 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 5: weekend on on brock Purty and he's already gonna have 113 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 5: to most likely miss this game and maybe several more. 114 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 5: With mac Jones filling and filling in the gap, so 115 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 5: I just I don't think there's that much of a 116 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 5: step down. But I was thinking about this as far 117 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 5: as Mac Jones getting an opportunity in Kyle Shannan's system 118 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 5: and Brady as a quarterback. Can you tell immediately when 119 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 5: you go to a new system, Oh, this guy knows 120 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 5: way more than the last guy did, Like, is any 121 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 5: significant difference as a player. 122 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's some things you can tell right away that 123 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 4: you'll grow. 124 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 2: To appreciate, you know, if they're able to stack plays 125 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 2: and build plays, meaning you know, hey, we've got a 126 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 2: game plan, we've got you know this, same personnel grouping 127 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 2: and these you know three you know this, three or. 128 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 4: Four plays off the same formation. 129 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 2: That's what's going to keep LeVar or someone like it's 130 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 2: someone on defense on their heels. Is if I show 131 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 2: you the same thing and I've got a play action aboo, 132 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: a run, a drop back pass out of the same thing, 133 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: there's no tendency, there's no key there, So it makes 134 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: it harder for them. Also, like I was a guy 135 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: who I'd like to kind of, you know, figuring out 136 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 2: what the defense was the one before the snap. So 137 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: it's spreading things out and empty give me displacement, meaning 138 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 2: like putting a tight end running back outside. Give me 139 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: whether or not it's manner zone or sometimes in base personnel. 140 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 2: You can do some things in the formation, so there's 141 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 2: all sorts of different things you can do. What I 142 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 2: love about Kyle Shanahan is he's able to basically dictate 143 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: to the defense how to get them in the exact 144 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: look he wants, especially for shot plays and for. 145 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 4: Some of the boots he does, and that, to me, 146 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 4: he's powerful. 147 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: There's some play callers who they're not really good at 148 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: doing that. They're not good at actually game planning to 149 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: put the stuff in to get what they want out 150 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: of the defense. So you go into a game, you 151 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 2: get a different look than what you're hoping for. That 152 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: makes it difficult. So yeah, there's definitely a difference you 153 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 2: can tell right away that with some of the best 154 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 2: player callers and some of the guys who are just 155 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 2: kind of out there calling plays. 156 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 3: With all that being said, my opinion continues to remain 157 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 3: and hold true. 158 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 6: The Niners are cooked. Damn they're cooked. 159 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 3: Like, yes, what can what can he do differently than 160 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 3: the other quarterback? Well, the one thing he won't do 161 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: different is win they're not gonna win. 162 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 5: You don't think they're gonna beat New Orleans. 163 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 6: They might lose to New Orleans. 164 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 5: They could beat New Orleans with Mac tonight instead of 165 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 5: Mac Joe. 166 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 6: Wow, they might lose against New or New Orleans. 167 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 5: Stinks. I know. No offense to Spencer Rattler, but come on. 168 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 6: Man, I mean, but let's keep the point where the 169 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 6: point is. So do to forty nine ers, am I? 170 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 5: They won last week though. 171 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 6: On the road. Shouldn't have won. 172 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 3: Like I mean, if Sam Donald, if Sam Donald can 173 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 3: just hold on to a ball, I mean talk about 174 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 3: like hand like. It's one thing to lose a game, 175 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 3: it's an other thing to hand the ball over, hand 176 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 3: the game over to the team. 177 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 6: He literally handed the game over. If he doesn't do that, 178 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 6: who knows how it ends. 179 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: I'm just saying I'm not high on the Niners coming 180 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 3: into the season. I'm not high on the Niners after 181 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 3: Week one. They're dealing with injuries. The Kittle injury is 182 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 3: way bigger than the Party injury. It's way bigger. So 183 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 3: even if brock Perdy was still in there, Kittle being 184 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 3: out now there, their offense is totally crippled. You're you're 185 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: perceivably outside of Semac, that is your best weapon that 186 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 3: is now out for the next what for four weeks 187 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 3: they're I mean, they were in trouble with Kittle, they 188 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 3: were in trouble with Semac, they were in trouble with 189 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 3: the team they had that was coming into the season. 190 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 3: Now you name these injuries to two prominent figures on 191 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: the offense side of the ball, they're in more trouble. 192 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 3: They're in more trouble and where they're currently at right now, Yes, 193 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 3: they can lose to New Orleans and I would not 194 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 3: be surprised if they lose to New Orleans. 195 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 4: Cool, get out of here with that. So you're calling 196 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 4: you're calling it. You're you're calling money lines. 197 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 6: What you're saying money line for New Orleans. 198 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 5: If you're going money line on the Saints, Steve heard, 199 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 5: you know what that is. I think that's because you 200 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 5: enjoyed yourself so much in New Orleans for Super Bowl 201 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 5: Week that you're like, you know, let me throw. 202 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 6: Them a bone, you know. Oh yeah, let me with y'all, y'all. 203 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, throw them a little bit of a bone. In 204 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 5: Week two, say they're going to beat the Niners. I 205 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 5: can't see it. 206 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 6: I don't. 207 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 5: I don't see it at all. And if there's not 208 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 5: that much of a drop off from brock Perty to 209 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 5: mac Jones, I don't think it's anything to be alarmed with. 210 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 3: Okay, do it this way, do it this way? What 211 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: if they lose to New Orleans? How will you guys 212 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 3: react to that? 213 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 4: I'll give you a pad on the back. 214 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I don't want to paddle on the back. 215 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: I'm saying, how do you got? 216 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 9: Like? 217 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 6: Will what will your Yesterday? 218 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 2: I said this yesterday when we talked about all the injuries. 219 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: I said, I think like they've hit their ceiling. This 220 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: feels like a team that's like they've gone as far 221 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 2: as they were going to go. M h, even though 222 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: they've got a really easy schedule. I did probably didn't 223 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 2: say that well the other day. One of the reasons 224 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 2: why I have them going far is because they've got 225 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 2: a pretty easy schedule this year, so that should allow 226 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: them to position themselves well in the playoffs. And then look, 227 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 2: there's just not a lot of other competition in the NFC. 228 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 2: So I still think they're a playoff team. And by 229 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: the way, I still think mac Jones will do a 230 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 2: good enough job to help. 231 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 4: Them get a win. 232 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 5: So I think the Niners is a super Bowl can 233 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 5: ender ship is sailed like that one sailed. But I 234 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 5: still I think they're a playoff team. I think they 235 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 5: can get there. I mean, look, especially if we're talking 236 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 5: about that division. 237 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 6: And I can still jump forty two inches with my vertical. 238 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 4: Damn, that's high. 239 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 6: What are you eating, Preseas Reses? 240 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 2: No, we just talked about a health cack. 241 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 6: I told you.

Right 341 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 2: when you saw brock Purty no a question like that, 342 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: It's like, well, I don't know, am I wrong in 343 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 2: saying that? 344 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,360 Speaker 5: No? And also and also I would say that it's 345 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 5: not necessarily a knock on brock Party to where like 346 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 5: he can't help where he was drafted in too's the 347 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 5: last pick of the draft. What is he supposed to do? Oh, 348 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 5: I got to get out of here so I can 349 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 5: go prove that I can do it in a worse 350 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 5: offensive system. No, he's played well. He's been to a 351 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 5: Super Bowl. He played well in that Super Bowl. But like, 352 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 5: if we're gonna be honest about Mac Jones, he was 353 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:55,120 Speaker 5: a pro bowler and he did play pretty well when 354 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 5: he had a competent play caller in Josh McDaniel's in 355 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 5: New England and then they decided to do whatever Belichick 356 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 5: was trying to do and it just totally sent him 357 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 5: down the wrong path as a quarterback. So you could 358 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 5: probably make the argument this is the first time since 359 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 5: his Pro Bowl year that he's had competent play calling 360 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 5: around him. And that's why I want to see it. 361 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 5: I want to see was it that was the player? 362 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 5: Was the system? Was it his journey that he was on? 363 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 5: The path he was on. So I'm looking forward to it. 364 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 5: He's going to light up New Orleans. Barsta hater man, 365 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 5: I don't get it. 366 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 3: Just don't be surprised when they come out of the 367 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 3: weekend with a loss. 368 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 6: Man, That's all I'm gonna say. Where are they playing 369 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 6: them in New Orleans? Yeahs, it's a hard place to play. 370 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 371 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 6: Oh you know is a little waily gun here? Yeah? 372 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 6: See over there? Sleep right now. 373 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 4: All I know is. 374 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 2: That that camera was off for a while between Lee 375 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 2: and Loraine.

And ladies and gentlemen, I'll be 438 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 2: honest with you, and it's not been a good season 439 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 2: thus far. I thought we were trending back in the 440 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 2: right direction after a one and two start, then to 441 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 2: a two and two start, and then we hit rock bottom. 442 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 4: All right, We're like lead a lap on a Wednesday, 443 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 4: couldn't find a. 444 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 2: Way of picking ourselves up off the ground, and a 445 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 2: bunch to puke after a number of teams just puked 446 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 2: on themselves. 447 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 4: Duke just gave that game away to Illinois. 448 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 2: Michigan's offensive coordinator Chip Lindsay forgot he had a quarterback 449 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 2: that had a howitzer for an arm and acted like 450 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 2: we're in the nineteen thirties. We could only just run 451 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 2: the ball ole miss they go to Kroger Field. Apparently 452 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 2: they couldn't figure it a way of getting a produce 453 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 2: to produce some points. First, Kentucky and SMU, how are 454 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 2: you up fourteen points in the fourth quarter and you 455 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: just give that game away to Baylor. But I digress. Yeah, 456 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 2: new week, new opportunity, And here's what I'll say. If 457 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 2: you want to fade me, see if it works for 458 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 2: you this week. All right, And like most people, when 459 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 2: they get down, they dig in, and that's exactly what 460 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 2: I've done. So I'm not going with three games, not 461 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 2: going with four games. I'm going with five games. Okay, 462 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 2: we're going with five picks for this week. Let me 463 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: read them. We can figure out what we want to do. 464 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 2: After Clemson laying two and a half at Georgia Tech. 465 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 2: To me, this is a get right game for a 466 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: team that's been lackluster to say the least. Obviously, Clemson 467 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 2: lost ELISU to start the season, disappointing, started the game 468 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 2: versus Troy ended up winning, but I think the defense 469 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 2: is going to pitch a near shutout and offensively, I 470 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 2: think they put it together. They come around. So lay 471 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 2: the two and a half with Clemson versus Georgia Tech. 472 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 2: Next up Oklahoma laying a big number minus twenty one 473 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 2: and a half over Temple. Now this has the chance 474 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 2: to be what we'd call a hangover game, right you 475 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 2: just had a big win you beat Michigan. This is 476 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 2: one though, where I think you also have to take 477 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 2: into account with OU's schedule, and if you're Breton Venables, 478 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 2: you can't afford to not put up a bunch of 479 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 2: points versus teams that you should beat. Because we've heard 480 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 2: that the College Football Playoff Committee they're going to look 481 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 2: into the strength of the schedule even more so. So 482 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 2: not only tells me that they're not only going to 483 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 2: give you more credit for wins against good teams or not, 484 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 2: you know, not take away as much when you lose 485 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 2: to those good teams, but they're also going to factor 486 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 2: in if you only beat a bad team close. You 487 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 2: need to make that margin of victory big. So I've 488 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 2: got a number of really big favorites this week that 489 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 2: I do believe they're going to take care of business. 490 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 2: Oklahoma is one of them. Lay the twenty one and 491 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 2: a half points. I think John Mattier continues to make 492 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 2: his Heisman campaign. Next up Michigan at home, laying twenty 493 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 2: seven and a half versus Central Michigan again a get 494 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 2: right game for Michigan. They've got to respond. They've already 495 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 2: lost once. If they don't win the Big Ten and 496 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 2: you want to be a part of the College Football Playoff, 497 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 2: these sorts of games, you can't allow them to be close. Now, 498 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 2: the interesting thing is there's no Seon Moore. Remember he's 499 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 2: serving his suspension. Biff Pogi is taking over. If you 500 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 2: don't know about Biff, legendary human being. He's a guy 501 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 2: who had a hedge fund, decided to after he got 502 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 2: out of the hedge fund. Just coach Ball doesn't need 503 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 2: to work. He's been the head coach of Charlotte before. 504 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 2: Where's a cutoff. He is a legendary guy. He built 505 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 2: up in the Baltimore, the Gilman School, Saint Francis, a 506 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 2: number of those programs. It's all thanks to Biff and 507 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 2: him and what he's done. So in late the twenty 508 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 2: seven and a half, I know it's a big number. 509 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 2: Michigan will respond. Next up Alabama. They're laying twenty and 510 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 2: a half versus Wisconsin. Wisconsin has struggled mightily offensively, and 511 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 2: I think this is big, gonna be a big Mitch 512 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 2: mismatch in that sense. Alabama's defense has recovered and responded 513 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: since they're lost to Florida State and this is not 514 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: the same offense they're State facing in Wisconsin, and offensively, 515 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 2: they're starting to put some things together too, So lay 516 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 2: the twenty and a half here. Alabama is still a 517 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 2: really good football team. And finally, Georgia headed to Neeland 518 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 2: to take on the Tennessee Volunteers. Georgia is laying three 519 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 2: and a half as a road favorite. This is typically 520 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 2: a spot where you'd probably want to go the other 521 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 2: way and take the Volunteers. Unfortunately, history hasn't been kind 522 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 2: to Georgia and Tennessee in these matchups. 523 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 4: Specifically, Josh HYPEOVERUS Kirby Smart. 524 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 2: I think this is one of those games where George's 525 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 2: kind of flying under the radar, at least in the 526 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 2: national sense of some of the favorites to maybe have 527 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: a chance of winning it. 528 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 4: I think they take care of business. 529 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 2: They knock off Tennessee at home, you lay in the 530 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 2: three and a half here, So I get it all favorites, 531 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 2: but I also think this is going to be starting 532 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 2: to be the separation of the of the teams that 533 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 2: are playing for national championship and the pretenders. 534 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 5: Sometimes Quinn's wins, you'll be a winner. That's what I'm 535 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 5: talking about right there. And you know what it is 536 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 5: everybody else's fault. You know, whatever happened last week, it's 537 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 5: their fault. You know, it's their fault. They didn't want 538 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 5: to throw the ball. It's all their fault. That's the 539 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 5: exact approach you need to take if you have a 540 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 5: poor week. It's what I do makes you feel better too. 541 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 5: You can vent a little bit on poor performances and 542 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 5: you suck. Yeah whatever, that's fine, But it's a bounce. 543 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 3: Back because the picks are supposed to be correct. It's 544 00:26:58,280 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 3: the coaches and the players that mess it up. 545 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, agreed, there's that element of it. 546 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,719 Speaker 4: Yeah's that. Did you guys see that quote from Lamar Jackson? 547 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 5: Uh what about the cramping? 548 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? With that? 549 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, So Lamar Jackson spoke, well, he he had two 550 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 5: different quotes. He had one about the cramping that took 551 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 5: place and referenced the poop game that he had a 552 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 5: couple of years back. And then he also had a 553 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 5: conversation about the fan that he shoved. So pick a card, 554 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 5: any card, which one do you guys want to hear first? 555 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 9: Uh? 556 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 4: Fan that he shoved. 557 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,959 Speaker 5: Maybe all right, so let's hear this is Lamar Jackson 558 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 5: apologizing for some reason about shoving a fan who got 559 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 5: out of line. 560 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 10: Don't get me wrong, I didn't try to, you know, 561 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 10: it just happened like I got pushed him, like what, 562 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 10: But I was like outside, I wasn't even thinking about 563 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 10: me being out there on the field. But my apologies 564 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 10: to that whoever that was. I don't know who it was. 565 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 10: I probably used to him like just ship next time. 566 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 10: Just you know, you could talk trash and keep your 567 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 10: hands to yourself. I've never seen any one of our 568 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 10: fans do nothing like that to an opposing team, you know. 569 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 6: So just you know, just keep it football trash. 570 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 9: You know. 571 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 6: I know guy's gonna talk trash. 572 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 10: I know, you know the opposting team's gonna tak tras 573 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 10: to keep it that way, you know, but keep your 574 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 10: hands and keep your object to yourself. 575 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 5: I think I know why the guy shoved Lamar Jackson 576 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 5: and DeAndre Hopkins and acted the way that he did. 577 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 5: And im and I'm actually gonna defend him, uh in 578 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,479 Speaker 5: this front because you know, we talked about, you know, 579 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 5: him being banned from NFL stadiums. Isn't punishment enough. He 580 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 5: should have to go do bowl in the ring and 581 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 5: just get war out by you know, NFL players since 582 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 5: he wants to put his hands on him. But maybe 583 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 5: there's something to this. What has been the big craze 584 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 5: that's gone on in sports over the past several months. 585 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 5: We've been asked Brady as Dean Blandino about it, and 586 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 5: it's people throwing, yeah, throwing dildos on the field. Let's 587 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 5: not forget who was the originator of this. It was 588 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 5: the Buffalo Bills, and they did it years in advance. 589 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 5: And yet it's these Johnnie Cumme latelies that pop up 590 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 5: start throwing stuff from their top drawer in their nightstand 591 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 5: out on the field, and the Bills are standing around going, 592 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 5: wait a second, we were the ones doing that first, 593 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 5: and everybody else is getting shine. Before everybody else was 594 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 5: inventing or throwing out neon green dildos on the field, 595 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 5: the Bills were bringing in flesh colored sex toys and 596 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 5: firing them at players and nearly hitting players in actual 597 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 5: NFL games. And so this guy's looking around going, well, now, 598 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 5: if we do it, we're gonna look like we're stilling 599 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 5: the idea we're not getting the love we deserve, so 600 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 5: why not just go ahead and put my hands on 601 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 5: a couple of players. I get it. I think it's 602 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 5: sound reasoning. Maybe not the best judgment, but I think 603 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 5: its sound reasoning as to why he acted the way 604 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 5: that he did. 605 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 3: So you're saying, live game horseshoes but with Dil doo's, Yeah, 606 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 3: live game darts but with dil doos, Yeah, we won't 607 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 3: to be the originators of they were game. 608 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 5: I mean they were doing this. So they were doing 609 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 5: this in twenty eighteen, and and now all of a sudden, 610 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 5: everybody's you know, through w NBA games, Like they threw 611 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 5: where was the NFL? 612 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 3: So they got to start the new trend, which is 613 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 3: slapping players upside the head. 614 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 6: Hey, hey, gotta be their originator. 615 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 5: You got to get some of your credit back. Makes 616 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 5: sense to me. 617 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 3: Hey, By the way, Lamar Jackson must be a really 618 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 3: really strong dude man, because that kid went back like 619 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 3: he got hit by like ryu. 620 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 5: Get yeah, yeah he did.

He brought 623 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 3: he brought them hips that was like almost like an 624 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 3: explosive leg lift, like you know, like when you be 625 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 3: doing like them, you know them pools, you know pool. 626 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, and he'd be in that gym. 627 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 4: He was playing the long game. 628 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: Be sure to catch live editions of Two Pros and 629 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington, and 630 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: Jonas Knox weekdays at six am Eastern, three am Pacific. 631 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 5: And right now we welcome in a Thursday tradition here 632 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 5: on the show.

I 641 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 9: thought Caleb would look better, I think on Monday nights 642 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 9: than he did. I thought he held the ball and 643 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 9: I thought like it kind of still looked it looked 644 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 9: like he wasn't playing fast enough.

I mean, like I know most people will 646 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 9: say the dolphins, but I thought the Dolphins were going 647 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 9: to have some problems, you know, coming out of the gate. 648 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 9: It sup me that Jonas, I don't know, I don't 649 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 9: know that anything was really shocking and any shock. 650 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 4: You guys, Yeah, the Colts. I didn't think the Colts 651 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 4: were going to actually drum the Dolphins. I think there 652 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 4: are both teams. Maybe the Colts good. 653 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think the Colts are a good one. Brady, 654 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 9: I like and I think like it's probably another example 655 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 9: of like what what what happens. 656 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 11: With quarterbacks in the NFL? 657 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 9: You know, And I've been kind of an evangelist for 658 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 9: these guys, like you know, Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield 659 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 9: and Gino Smith and what do we give up on 660 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 9: guys who are highly drafted And the ultimate example of it, 661 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 9: probably from fifteen years ago is you know, it was 662 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 9: Alex Smith, you know, but I think, you know, Shane 663 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 9: Stikin did a good job of building an offense for 664 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 9: Daniel Jones, and you know, like really what they were 665 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 9: looking for and this was you know, sort of like 666 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 9: I think an interesting component to it. Like they gave 667 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 9: me the stat when I was there over the summer 668 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 9: where they were twenty ninth in the league in total 669 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 9: defense and thirtieth and giveaways last year and they still 670 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 9: won eight games, Right, So they bring in Leuen in 671 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 9: a romo to fix the defense, and then you know, 672 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 9: like really like what Shane's thing was was like, we 673 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 9: just need to play a lot cleaner on offense, and 674 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 9: we just need somebody to come in and operate, to 675 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 9: operate the system. And they didn't feel like Anthony Richardson 676 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 9: was doing that at a high enough level, and they 677 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 9: really felt like it was holding the talent they had 678 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 9: on that side of the ball back. And I think 679 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 9: what you saw with Daniel Jones wasn't necessarily spectacular, but 680 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 9: I don't think that that's what they thought they needed. 681 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 9: Like they felt like. 682 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 11: What they needed was somebody who's gonna. 683 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 9: Put you know, Michael Pittman and Josh Downs and Alex Pearson, 684 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 9: Tyler Warren and Jonathan Taylor in a position to make plays. 685 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 9: And that's exactly what Daniel Jones did, right. 686 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 3: Carley Earth wearing headphones in that Colts game, that did 687 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 3: that also add to your surprise. 688 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 9: Of Yeah, yeah, I don't know how often the owners 689 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 9: on the headset I have bird stories about have you 690 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 9: guys heard about these? Like we're like sometimes they're in 691 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 9: the suite and they'll have like a transmitter or whatever, 692 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 9: or they'll have I don't know if it's an actual 693 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 9: headset all the time, Like maybe it's like just that 694 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 9: an earpiece or something, but they'll like be able to 695 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 9: hear it. Like have you you ever heard of that? 696 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 11: Right? 697 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? 698 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean so, like, I guess it's not that 699 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 9: unusual that, like, you know, the owner, we want to 700 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 9: listen in. I don't know how much you're cleaning from 701 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 9: it if you're the owner, unless you're like, like I 702 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 9: just I mean, you guys know what it sounds like 703 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 9: those headsets. 704 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 11: It's like if you don't really. 705 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 9: Know what's going on, Like it's like everybody's talking in code, 706 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 9: you know what I mean. Like, so, but I think 707 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 9: we've seen that before too, So I don't know, I 708 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 9: it is a little bit of a weird look for 709 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 9: your first game as principal owner, but you know, I 710 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 9: don't think it's that on common that owners will kind 711 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 9: of hover in those. 712 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 11: Sorts of ways. 713 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 2: So, so part of the discussion we had it wasn't 714 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 2: so much about like whether or not she should be 715 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 2: doing this. It was more like, well, then you need 716 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 2: to be listening really throughout the week because otherwise you 717 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 2: don't really have the context to what's happening. And her 718 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 2: explanation of like well maybe someone tagged the wrong route 719 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 2: or and it's I'm like, okay, that's not how this works, 720 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 2: but you know it it sounds that's saying thing. 721 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 9: Brady is like if you don't have that, like if 722 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 9: you weren't in practice every day during training camp, like 723 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 9: how would you be able to really make heads because 724 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 9: like it's like anything else, right, Like if you've had 725 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 9: a running conversation with somebody on something for a month 726 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 9: and a half and like you're and somebody just jumps 727 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 9: in and listens to you having that running conversation with 728 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 9: somebody about anything, like they're going to lack all the 729 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 9: context that you've got on it, right, Like I'm not 730 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 9: even just not just football, just like in anything, right, No, yeah, I. 731 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 4: Mean you're right. 732 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 2: And then but again it kind of just showed that 733 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 2: like even what she was saying, well, this problem, you know, 734 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 2: if it reveals itself, it's like, well that problem isn't 735 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 2: really a reality, is what she was trying to describe, 736 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 2: the greatest question becomes because when I heard this, my 737 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 2: first thought was, Ooh, that's bad for Shane's stiching then, 738 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 2: because Chris Ballard's not on that like a general manager 739 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 2: is not being evaluated with every single game on a 740 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 2: headset like that, right, So it almost led me to 741 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 2: think that, like if there is, because it's technically new 742 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 2: ownership in a way, Yeah, it almost led me to believe, like, 743 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,720 Speaker 2: what's Shane Stikeen's in the crosshairs of them, not Chris Ballard. 744 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 2: Yet Ballard's been there for longer, they haven't won a division. 745 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 2: I think you could make some you could you could 746 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 2: have some questions about how they built this roster. 747 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,919 Speaker 4: Did you get that sense though, that. 748 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: Like maybe it's pointed at the coach for some reason 749 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 2: at least based on those kinds elements. 750 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 11: I don't know. 751 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 9: I mean, look, I think you know it's weird because, 752 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 9: like I know a lot of coaches, there's a little 753 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 9: paranoia with coaches sometimes over this. And I think I 754 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 9: hesitate to use that word because I think sometimes it's 755 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 9: justified paranoia. I mean, I think in a lot of 756 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 9: cases is justified paranoia. 757 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 11: Where like if there. 758 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 9: Is any sort of divide, and I'm not saying there 759 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 9: is one between Chris and Shane. But like, if there 760 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 9: is any sort of divide between the coach and the 761 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 9: general manager, what the coach will say to you will 762 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 9: is well who sits. 763 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 11: Next to the to the owner during the games? 764 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 9: Right, And there's always this feeling like is the GM 765 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 9: up there picking apart? Like, well, I gave him the players, 766 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 9: Well look at how look at this guy's talent. Well 767 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 9: look at that catch that guy made. How come he 768 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 9: doesn't have seven catches? 769 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 4: Look at that? 770 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 9: Look at that? Look look at that? Look at that pressure? 771 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 9: The sense of end? 772 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 11: God, how come we can't get him to the quarterback more? 773 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:59,280 Speaker 9: You know what I mean? Like, so that definitely can exist, 774 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 9: and you know, in a lot of cases, like the 775 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:06,800 Speaker 9: owner will feel a little bit more I would be 776 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 9: a little bit more connected to the general manager, because 777 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 9: the general manager is a front office person. The general 778 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 9: managers generally more of a suit you know. So so yeah, 779 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 9: I mean I think those sorts of dynamics exist. And 780 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 9: I would say this, like, if if you have a 781 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 9: coach who is in any way dealing with any sort 782 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 9: of pressure on his job, you have to be very 783 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 9: careful about the things that you do to exacerbate that 784 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 9: and I would say, like if if there's any sort 785 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 9: of feeling the shamestake is coaching for his job this year, 786 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 9: I think you just have to have like the self 787 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 9: awareness to know, if you're the owner, this is going 788 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 9: to have to be a really bad look for him. 789 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 9: This is not going to make me look good, and 790 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 9: this is ultimately gonna create a problem for for for 791 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 9: him and his staff and potentially something that could seep 792 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 9: into the locker room. So I'm with you on that, 793 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 9: like that you have to be aware of the of 794 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 9: the of the spot that you're in, and maybe that's 795 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 9: just part of the process and in learning how to 796 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 9: do the job of becoming the principal owner. 797 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 11: If you're probably court. 798 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 3: Aybe uh Brian day Ball, he made a decision that's 799 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 3: a I don't know if it's considered a gutsy decision 800 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 3: or the most sensible of decisions, but he named Russell 801 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 3: Wilson the starter going into Week two of the NFL season. 802 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 3: What's your take on that and how much runway and 803 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 3: your estimation does Dave Ball have. 804 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 9: So I think I think a lot of this is 805 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 9: going to relate back to the offensive line they didn't 806 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 9: have Andrew Thomas in week one. We'll see, you know, 807 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,439 Speaker 9: when they get him back. That's a really big deal. 808 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 9: Guys like I like, I like, I feel like this 809 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 9: is this is a piece of this puzzle that people 810 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 9: have really overlooked. 811 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 11: They spent a lot of resources and rebuilding. 812 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 9: Their offensive line last year and they felt like, all right, 813 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,280 Speaker 9: like the first five or six weeks of the season, 814 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 9: they actually played pretty well, and then Andrew Thomas, their 815 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 9: left tackle goes. 816 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 11: Down, and then one thing. 817 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 9: Led to another and the whole thing imploded and. 818 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:22,880 Speaker 11: It became a big mess again. 819 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 9: And so like this year, they've gone back and they've 820 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 9: doubled down on the same group. So it's you know, 821 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 9: it's it's Thomas an illumina at the tackles. It's been 822 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 9: Rodin and run In at the guards, and it's and 823 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 9: it's it's it's Schmid's at center. Right, So you've got 824 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 9: the same group coming back. You've made that conscious decision 825 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 9: that you know, we did get it right in twenty four, 826 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 9: but the Thomas injury undermined everything. And so like, you know, 827 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,240 Speaker 9: you've made that bet on your offensive line. When Thomas 828 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 9: gets back in there, you'd hope things stabilize and I 829 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 9: think if things stabilized, then that when you've got the 830 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 9: Lee way to go to Jackson Dart. 831 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 11: They think the world of them. 832 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 9: I said this over the summer, like I like, I like, 833 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 9: I really feel like, if anything, the least got shorter 834 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 9: on Russell Wilson as Jackson Dart really started to check 835 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 9: check every box with the coaches, and they have already 836 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 9: displayed to all of us in a public way by 837 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,479 Speaker 9: making him the second quarterback they would feel comfortable putting 838 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 9: him in a game right here, right now. So you know, 839 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,919 Speaker 9: I think, you know, part of this is just kind 840 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 9: of making sure that you're you're looking out for the 841 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 9: development of the young quarterback and in trying to put 842 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 9: him in a good situation. And you know, I think 843 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 9: as far as that goes, it's going to be like 844 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 9: when that offensive line is stabilized, then you feel comfortable 845 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 9: putting him in there. And then I think Russell Wilson's unnoticed. 846 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 9: But he's got to play a lot better than he 847 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 9: did last week, that's for sure, because a lot of 848 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 9: the problems the Steelers people had with the way he 849 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 9: played last year. We're certainly there on Sunday against the Commanders. 850 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 5: Albert Breer, Senior NFR reporter, Lead content Strategy, said, the 851 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 5: MMQB joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, get him 852 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 5: on x at Albert Breer. So, you'd mentioned the Dolphins 853 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 5: performance that you weren't totally surprised by it because you 854 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 5: didn't have high expectations for him. But it just feels 855 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 5: like the conversations are getting louder and louder surrounding Mike McDaniel, Like, 856 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,399 Speaker 5: what are you hearing from people as to how thin 857 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 5: the ice is that he's currently operating on. 858 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 9: Well, so I think i'd said, there are a couple 859 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 9: of things. 860 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 11: You know. First of all, he was extended last year, 861 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 11: so you would be. 862 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 9: The the this is never a non tacktor. The owner 863 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 9: would be eating some money and all of that. That's 864 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 9: that's not a non factor. And I think Mike's a 865 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 9: I think Mike's a really good coach, you know. I like, 866 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 9: I think he from a tactical standpoints, one of the 867 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 9: best in the NFL. You know, But like there were 868 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,879 Speaker 9: these questions with him, like before he became a head coach, 869 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 9: what happens when the bleep it's the fan and then 870 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 9: you hear stuff, you know, through the off season is 871 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 9: that place. Is that building healthy right now? 872 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 11: Is the locker room healthy right now? 873 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 9: They go through a bit of a rebuild and trading 874 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,479 Speaker 9: Jalen Ramsey Toront Armstead retires. You know, I think they've 875 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 9: aged out and in certain positions, and he's got two 876 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 9: problems now, Like I think, the first problem is that 877 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 9: a lot of the narrative flows into the fact that 878 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 9: the effort didn't look good, that did not look like 879 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 9: a team that had a lot of energy playing against 880 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 9: the Colts on Sundays. So when you want to call 881 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 9: him narratives, whatever they are over the last few months, 882 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 9: they sort of match what happened in the opener. So 883 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 9: that's problem number one. Problem number two is that if 884 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 9: you are going through this sort of reset where you're 885 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 9: moving off of this team, this group that you went 886 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 9: all in on while Tuo was on his rookie contract, 887 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:52,839 Speaker 9: this would be the natural time to start asking big 888 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 9: picture questions. Is this the guy that we want to 889 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 9: lead our rebuild? If we are going to rebuild, is 890 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 9: this the person that we want? And a kind of 891 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 9: a sidebar to that is the fact that you've got 892 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,839 Speaker 9: a guy in your defensive coordinator, Anthony Weaver, who some 893 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 9: people view as a as a future head coach who's 894 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,839 Speaker 9: interviewed head coaching job, So you have somebody on your 895 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 9: staff that you might want to take a look at. 896 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 11: So like, I'm not declaring it's over after one week. 897 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,280 Speaker 9: They've got plenty of time to come off the mat. 898 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 9: Week one's weird. You know, they could come come out 899 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 9: and rip off three straight wins and this conversation looks stupid. 900 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 9: But you know, I'd say those two things are really 901 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 9: sort of working against Mike right now. You know, I'd 902 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 9: say number one again like kind of how the narrative 903 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 9: matched the effort on Sunday. And then number two, like 904 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 9: the fact that they're at this, you know, this natural 905 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 9: point of resetting some things with the roster where you 906 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 9: do ask those big picture questions on whether or not 907 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 9: you want the current leadership leaving the rebuild. 908 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 2: We were just having this conversation about the San Francisco 909 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 2: forty nine ers kind of where that team's at. 910 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 4: You know, mccaffree is still doing with the calf. 911 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 2: Injury, pretty cry out multiple weeks Kittles on IR. I mean, 912 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 2: it just it feels like this is a team that 913 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 2: hit their ceiling, and you know might be a playoff 914 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 2: team because the NFC is obviously weaker than the AFC, 915 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 2: but is probably closer to a rebuild or treading in 916 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 2: that direction more so than a team that's that's building. 917 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 4: Do you disagree with that? 918 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 2: Like where where would you say the San Francisco forty 919 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 2: nine ers are out at this point? 920 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 9: So like they actually have like kind of started to rebuild, Brad. 921 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,320 Speaker 9: They played a lot of rookies on defense on Sunday, 922 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 9: and they I think are starting to lean into some 923 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 9: younger players on offense as well. And you know, like 924 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 9: that that's Ricky Piersoll, you know, like that's you know, 925 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,800 Speaker 9: I think Juwan Jennings when he gets healthy is and 926 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 9: other piece of that, like you know, I's not old 927 00:45:56,440 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 9: and Auka's Ayuka is not out there right now, you know, 928 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 9: so they are starting to lean on some some younger players. 929 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:04,279 Speaker 11: You know. 930 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 9: It's interesting the conversation I had with Kyle and John 931 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 9: Lynch about this over the summer, a lot of it 932 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 9: centered on like how the guys that they let go 933 00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 9: this year, the difference is that those are guys like 934 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 9: those aren't guys that they didn't want to keep, you 935 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 9: know what I mean, Like they let go of some 936 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 9: guys they really like, Like they like. 937 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,399 Speaker 11: Sufungo, they like green Law, they like. 938 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,879 Speaker 9: Jordan Mason, you know, who wound up with the Vikings. 939 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 11: So they let go. 940 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,719 Speaker 9: Of guys that they really thought, like, you know, these 941 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,440 Speaker 9: guys still have something left. We still like these guys, 942 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,359 Speaker 9: you know. And it was because the realities of going 943 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 9: all in over the last few years. Now here's the 944 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 9: good news. The good news is they still have like 945 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 9: a crew of like Hall of Fame play Hall of 946 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 9: Fame level players, right, so Nick Bosa and Fred Warner, 947 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 9: George Kittle, Christian McCaffrey. And then you know, if you 948 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,839 Speaker 9: combine that with all right, like we're playing a lot 949 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 9: of rookies who should be better in December than they 950 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:03,160 Speaker 9: aren't September, you can see where maybe this all does 951 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,759 Speaker 9: come together with a weaker schedule, you know what I mean, 952 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 9: Like maybe this is an eleven or twelve win team 953 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 9: that's supremely well coached. Here's the problem with that, though, 954 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 9: is they're already really banged up. And is that a coincidence, right, 955 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 9: or is that just happen what happens with an older team. 956 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:24,919 Speaker 9: Because Kittle's banged up, you know, like McCaffrey's banged up, 957 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:29,320 Speaker 9: you know, like, is this just hey, it's an older. 958 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 11: Team, like this is what happens? 959 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 9: You know. Well, we'll have to see. But if they 960 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 9: can keep those older guys on the field, if Warner 961 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 9: and Bosa and Kittle gets back out there, and Purdy 962 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 9: gets back out there, and McCaffrey can stay healthy, if 963 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 9: they can keep those guys healthy and going, then I 964 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 9: still think they have a shot just because of the 965 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 9: strength of the program. 966 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 5: All right, so moment are true there? 967 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 6: Right? 968 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 5: Enough?
