1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Let's bring in Albert Breer, Monday Morning quarterback 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: joining us on the program. And I just saw where 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: Albert Brier is reporting that the Bears will entertain trade 5 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: offers for quarterback Nick Foles. Albert joins us, Now, what 6 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 1: do you think about that? Where do you think Nick 7 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: Foles could end up? Well? I think it's just sort 8 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: of hard because of the money, you know. But he's 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: been a really good soldier for them, and so I 10 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,919 Speaker 1: think they're going to kind of follow his lead here. 11 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 1: I do think at one point the Jets had some 12 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: interest and bringing him in, And obviously Joe Douglas, the 13 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: general manager in New York, was in Philadelphia with Foles, 14 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: understands what Foles could be in for a young quarterback, 15 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: you know, So I think there was some level of 16 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: interest there. I don't know how much interest Falls would 17 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: have been going to New York right now, And I 18 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: don't think the Bears are going to put Falls in 19 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: a situation he doesn't want to be in, you know, 20 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: I think out of loyalty and because again Falls have 21 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: been a good soldier in dealing with the drafting of 22 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: justin fields and dealing with the signing of Andy Dalton 23 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: and not getting very many reps in the spring and 24 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: in camp. I think they're going to maybe not follow 25 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: his lead, but at least seeks sign off on whatever happened. 26 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: So it's going to take somebody wanting to wanting wanting 27 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: to pick up the contract number one and then number two. 28 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: I don't think the Bears are going to do it 29 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: unless it's something that Folds wants to do. What about 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: Dallas for Nick Foles, it makes some sense. I mean, 31 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 1: Garret Gilbert I think would be the number two there 32 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: right now. And yeah, I mean there's nobody that knows 33 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,919 Speaker 1: better than the Cowboys. What can happen to your season 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: if you lose your quarterback and you look at obviously 35 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen when Tony Romo got hurt and they had 36 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: a really really loaded ross, the whole thing fell apart, 37 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: and then of course would happen last year. Yeah, I 38 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: think the Cowboys would be one team that you would 39 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: look at and say, could have an interest if the 40 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: money works out, could have an interest. And of course, 41 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: you know Nick Foles being from Texas, there is a 42 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: connection there. I know that Jerry Jones came out recently. 43 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: He was, you know, very effusive talking about Tony Romo, 44 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, his mind first ballot Hall of Famer, And 45 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people laughed at that and said, no, 46 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: his numbers don't compare. Is Tony Romo? Should he be 47 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: under consideration for the Hall of Fame? Maybe not a 48 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, but under consideration. Remember like a few 49 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: years ago when we had to raise the bar for 50 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: receivers because the numbers had gotten so otowac right like, 51 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: and so you had like numbers that were benchmarks for 52 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: Hall of Famers, And now guys who hit those benchmark 53 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: round getting in because the statistics have changed. I sort 54 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: of think something similar is happening with quarterbacks now where 55 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: I mean, how do you separate Drew Brees from Philip Rivers, 56 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 1: from Tony Romo from Eli Manning? I mean, people see 57 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: Eli Manning's issue in is he though? Like? And where 58 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: do we draw the line? I think, you know, over 59 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: the next five to ten years, Hall of Fame voters 60 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: are gonna have some tough decisions to make on some 61 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: guys who had they been up for you know, induction ten, fifteen, 62 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: twenty years ago, might have gotten in And I think 63 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: part of it is that we're in a golden age 64 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: for the position. You know, you see a lot fewer 65 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: teams dan just rolling out there in an NFL season 66 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: without an answer at quarterback, and we see that all 67 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: the time, like you know, you feel like ten years ago, 68 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago, you'd see teams that would go into 69 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: a season and the position would be a dumpster fire 70 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: and you knew they were taking one of the top 71 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: five the next year. And you just don't see that anymore. 72 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: And I just think that's been the natural evolution of 73 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: the position. That also means at the high end, we've 74 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: got a lot of really good quarterbacks. I mean, the 75 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: Rams moved off a quarterback they went to the Super 76 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: Bowl with. The Niners are in the process of moving 77 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: off a quarterback they went to the Super Bowl with. 78 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: So I just think the bars raising at the position 79 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: in general, and I think that's gonna have an effect 80 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: on the way the Hall of Fame thing goes down too. 81 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: And so you know, it's not just Romo in a vacuum. 82 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: It's also Romo versus Rivers, Romo versus Roethlisberger, Romo versus Eli. 83 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: Also the running back position. I don't know what is 84 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: going to be considered a whole of fame. Caliber used 85 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: to be you got to ten thousand yards and you 86 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: punch your ticket to the whole of fame. That was 87 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: a long time ago. I don't know what ten thousand 88 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: yards means now. For is Derrick Henry gonna be a 89 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: hole of Famer if he gets to ten thousand yards? Yeah? 90 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: In the shelf life, I mean, do we have guys 91 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: who're gonna make it as far as Emmett Smith may 92 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: now Adrian Peterson. I think it's an obvious one. Like 93 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: you know, I think he goes in, and I think 94 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: that's a pretty easy call. Marson Lynch, is he in? 95 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: Like if you look at his career numbers and the aggregate, 96 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: maybe not, but his impact in the game was huge, right, 97 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: Like he was the centerpiece for a Super Bowl champion 98 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: on offense. So Frank Gore, I think hub Frank Gore. 99 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: Frank Gore is a great one. Frank. I mean, I 100 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: think his critics would say he's a compiler, but you 101 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: look at his story and coming into the league with 102 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: two surgically repaired knees and making it as long as 103 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: he did you know, and having the impact on so 104 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: many people around him, being the centerpiece of and of 105 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: a team that made it to the Super Bowl in 106 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: San Francisco. I think it's interesting, and I also think 107 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: that the way we look at the position is going 108 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: to probably start to evolve and change too. I mean, 109 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: you bring up Dereck Henry and Derrick Henry sort of 110 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: what the position used to be. Look at Zeke Elliott, 111 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: look at sae Quon Barkley, look at Alvin Kamara. All 112 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: those guys can bring value in the passing game, and 113 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: so I think that position is changing and evolving too. 114 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: Here's the other thing, Dan, I mean, I feel like 115 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: when you and I grew up, the best athlete on 116 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: the team, more often than not with the tailback. I 117 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: don't think that's the case anymore. You know. I think 118 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: more often than not, that sort of athlete is probably 119 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: going and playing receiver now. Like would Odell Beckham had 120 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: been a running back, you know, if he had come 121 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: along twenty five years earlier, maybe he would have been 122 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: Marshall Fox, you know. So I think that that's part 123 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: of the evolution as well. He's Albert Breer's senior NFL reporter, 124 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: lead content strategist for the Monday Morning Quarterback. Why all 125 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,239 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Deshaun Watson could get traded, might get traded. 126 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: Here's what they would trade for him. Now it's on 127 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: the front burner because because because, because the cutdown to 128 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: fifty three is on Tuesday, And so the question now becomes, 129 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: are the Texans willing to a pay him ten point 130 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: four or five million dollars for the year because that's 131 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: what it would cost to carry him on the roster 132 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: for the year. And b are they willing to go 133 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: with an essence fifty two players if they're not going 134 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: to play them because you're not going to play them, 135 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: that means somebody else is losing their job over this. 136 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: And I just would tell you, like, I don't have 137 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: a crystal ball. I don't know what's going to happen 138 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: over the next forty eight hours. I do you know, 139 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: I do agree that this creates a pressure point for 140 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: the Texans to some degree. I just you know, my 141 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,679 Speaker 1: sense throughout has been that Nick Kissario is not taking 142 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: fifty cents on the dollar for Deshaun Watson, and I 143 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: actually I agree with him on this twenty five year 144 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: old franchise quarterback. He's got five years left on his contract. 145 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: There's no more priceless commodity in football than that. And like, 146 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: because you can't get full value for him right now, Like, 147 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: what's the harm in waiting if you have them under 148 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: contract for the next five years? What's the harm in 149 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: waiting if you feel like maybe, like three months from now, 150 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: six months from now, you might be able to get 151 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: three or four first round picks. Is it better to 152 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: wait and ride it out because you've already ridden it 153 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: out with a new head coach for six weeks in 154 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: training camp? Or are you better off taking a lot 155 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: less now and like continuing to rebuild without Watson and 156 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: without the haul you might have been able to get. 157 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: I just unless somebody's going to come in and offer 158 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: something the sort of thing that the Texans would have 159 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: been able to get in January and February and March 160 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: before the twenty two lawsuits were filed. Like, I just 161 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: think Nick Cassario is the new general manager of the Texans, 162 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: has resolved not to move and maybe you maybe you've 163 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: got something for me, But I like, unless somebody's going 164 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: to give him the value that you would normally get 165 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: for a quarterback of Deshaun Watson's stature, absent everything else 166 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: that's going on, which is way more serious than football, 167 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: What's like, what would create the rush to get something 168 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: done right now? Yeah? And from what I'm told, though, 169 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: one team wants contingency plans for those draft picks, and 170 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, you know what, we'll give the first 171 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: round picks. But if he doesn't play, or he gets 172 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: indicted or whatever it might be, then those those number 173 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: ones become maybe number two. Is that you know, some 174 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: kind of language in there. So consider this though, Dan, Like, 175 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: so let's say there's the language in there, and I 176 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: don't think the Texans. I think the Texans are leery 177 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: about putting conditions on this. So let's let's say let's 178 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: say like it like, the one of the conditions is 179 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: he has to play eight games this year. Okay, So 180 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: let's say there's an eight game suspension, and which I 181 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 1: think is reasonable. If you look at what Roethlisberger got 182 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: in twenty ten, it was six games that got knocked 183 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: down to four. So let's say he gets an eight 184 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: game suspension and then you know, he gets hurt, so 185 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: now he doesn't hit that eight games, right, Like, and 186 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: that takes away a first round pick. Would you want 187 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: to put yourself in that situation when maybe it doesn't 188 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: even relate directly to innocence or guilt here, it's just 189 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: sort of the way the league sees the situation. Or 190 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: would you rather wait for clarity so you could get 191 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: three first round picks, you know, like without any conditions 192 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: on them. You know the Texans, I mean, if you 193 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: if you, if you gave Nickossario and David Culley truth serim, 194 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: they know they're not winning the Super Bowl this year? 195 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: So is it really that important that they have the 196 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: picks right now rather than in March? And by the way, 197 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: they can't execute any of those picks until April anyway. 198 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I just I think if you're the Texans here, 199 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: like absent everything else, like, I just think you have 200 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: to look at this and say to yourself, like, if 201 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna walk away from Deshaun Watson, which again like 202 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: they didn't want to do in January and February March 203 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: before the temperature turned up on everything, if like you're 204 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: gonna walk away from that, you have to get full value. 205 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: And if you don't get full value as a first 206 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: year GM and a first year of coach. For the 207 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: rest of the time in Houston, you're gonna be chasing 208 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: that back, right, That's gonna be the hill you're gonna 209 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: have to get over. And so I think, you know, 210 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: the Texans, you can blame him for a lot of 211 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: stuff that they've done the last year. That place has 212 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: been a mess. But I think the Texans are taking 213 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: the right approach here in waiting to find a way 214 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: to get full value. And maybe somebody moves over the 215 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: next couple of days and gives it to him. But 216 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: I don't think that Cassara is going to be pressured 217 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: into doing something shortsighted based on, you know, a deadline 218 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: coming up in the next I guess thirty six hours now, 219 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: I mentioned that I thought Cam Newton was going to 220 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: be the starter. I still stand by that, even though 221 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: mac Jones has played well, played probably a lot better 222 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: than people thought at this you know, lack of experience. 223 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: Cam was only playing two series in this last game, 224 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: and usually that's what happens when you're the starter. Although 225 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: Belichick left it opened though when he didn't want to 226 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: name a starter, is that some kind of hey, I 227 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: got some Cooe moves here, I don't want to, you know, 228 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: tell somebody where starter. There's part of me that says, 229 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: because I've seen these situations before, and there's part of 230 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: me that wonders, like, as he really thinking about it? 231 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: Because Mac has played really well. That said, you have 232 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: to think about, like I think, in these situations, you 233 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 1: always have to think about the other ten guys in 234 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: the huddle, right, and take it what happened in San Francisco. 235 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I talked to Kyle Shanahan about this 236 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: about three weeks ago, and he brought up to me 237 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: the idea of doing a quarterback shuttle right like him 238 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: moving guys in and out. And I know, like people 239 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: went crazy over what happened yesterday, But the truth is, 240 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're Kyle Shanahan and you're really thinking 241 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: about doing that, well, you gotta get not just those 242 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: guys ready for it, you got to get the other 243 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: ten guys in the huddle ready for that too and 244 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: ready to go back and forth, right. And so I 245 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: think the same sort of principle applies when you're really 246 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: trying to analyze what's happening with Cam and Mack. If 247 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: you were really thinking about starting Mac Jones, Like, wouldn't 248 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 1: it behoove you to at least have gotten him a 249 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 1: few series with the starters in the preseason, just to 250 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: see what it looks like, just so the offensive lineman 251 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: can hear his voice, just so the receivers can kind 252 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: of hear how he adjusts things and the things that 253 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: he's capable of doing on the fly. I mean, in 254 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: my mind, and Belichie's a very very logical person. Logically, 255 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 1: wouldn't it have more wouldn't it create more value for 256 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: you to get Mac Jones that experience and get the 257 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: other ten guys that experience with Mac Jones than it 258 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: would to create some sort of mystery over who you're starting. 259 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 1: I would think, so, right, who's starting? I think it's 260 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: Cam and I think Mac. I think Max's going to 261 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: start games this year, and I think Mac is gonna 262 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: Like I think it could happen quick too, like and 263 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: I you know, I'm not saying it's like, you know, 264 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: as quick as it happened last year, would say, Justin 265 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: Herbert and Tyrod Taylor. And obviously that's a different situation, 266 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: but you know, like we've seen this before and they 267 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: are like since two thousand and eight, which is really 268 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: the paradigm shift here. Since two thousand and eight, when 269 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco were rookies, they've only been 270 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: three true red shirts among all the quarterbacks that have 271 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: gone in the first round, and those three were Jordan Love, 272 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, and Jake Locke. Are all three of those teams, 273 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: All three of those quarterbacks played for contenders. That's what's 274 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: so interesting about the three quarterback situations in Chicago, San Francisco, 275 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: and New England. Generally, first round quarterbacks go to bad teams. 276 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: These guys aren't going to bad teams. These guys are 277 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: going to teams that have contended recently. So I would 278 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: say Max's gonna be ready to play either, you know, 279 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 1: end of September, beginning October somewhere and there. I think 280 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: they feel comfortable putting them in there. I think the 281 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: question is going to be how good are they and 282 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: do they have the window to put them in Because 283 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: if Cam's playing relatively well and they're three and zero, 284 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: four and one, six and two, do you have the 285 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: opening to do that? I think it becomes a little 286 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: bit more complicated, and you know, to me, like that's 287 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: what's so fascinating about the situation the Patriots are facing. 288 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: And I think it's sort of similar to what you'll 289 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: you're going to see in San Francisco and Chicago too, 290 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: if those teams are able to get off to the 291 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: sorts of starts they think of capable. Also, Philadelphia trades 292 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: for Gardner Minshew. Gardner Minshew in his mind, was competing 293 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: with Trevor Lawrence, even though he wasn't going to win 294 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: that job. He's not going to Philadelphia to be Jalen hurts, backup, 295 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: how does this what's the message being sent here? I 296 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: think it's the Eagles. I mean, I think, first of all, 297 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: it's like the Eagles are always carried three quarterbacks. I 298 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: also think this is just sort of Howry Roseman's thing, um, 299 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: you know. And it goes back to Andy Reid. It's there, 300 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: we need to give ourselves as many like throws at 301 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: that dark board as we possibly can to try and 302 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: get the quarterback position right. And so I think they 303 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: bring in Gardner Minshew and they see baseline for the 304 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: next two years. We have a very affordable backup, and 305 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: some teams are paying five six seven million dollars a 306 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: year for a backup We've got Gardner Minshew for under 307 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: a million dollars this year, under a million dollars next year. 308 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: So that's the baseline. And if it becomes more great 309 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: and if Jalen Hurt struggles and Gardner Minshew proves to 310 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: be a great fit for Gardener, for Nick Sirianni, awesome, 311 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: and for all of that, we're only out a sixth 312 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: round pick, and it's a fifth round pick if he plays. 313 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: So I just think, more than anything else, Dan, it's 314 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: like looking at a sort of a risk reward thing. 315 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: There's almost no risk, and baseline reward is you get 316 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: a good backup at a really cheap rate, a guy 317 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: who has started I believe, twenty games as a pro already, 318 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: and maybe it grows into being something more. I'll also 319 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: tell you this, I mean, having talked to Urban Meyer 320 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: about it over the last couple of weeks, he loved 321 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew as a player. Obviously Gardner wanted a fresh 322 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 1: start somewhere else. But you know, part of the reason 323 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: why the quarterback situated the quarterback quote unquote unquote competition, 324 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: because I don't think it was a really competition either. 325 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: Part of the reason why, like the Urban had to 326 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: drag it out for as long as he had to 327 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: drag it out. Is the guys in the locker room 328 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: really respected Gardner and saw like the Gardener was actually 329 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: pushing Trevor in a lot of different ways. Always great 330 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: to catch up with you. I don't know what you're 331 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: gonna do for the next week with all you got 332 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: cut down like a week and a half.

All right, thanks to appreciate it.

Is 339 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: he joining us of Fritzie? David? Is there? David? Thanks 340 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: for joining us. Let me start with this whole philosophy 341 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: of rookie quarterbacks, and let's put in somebody who has athleticism. 342 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: If we don't have a good offensive line, I'm looking 343 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: at the numbers that you suffered through when you first 344 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: came into the league. You add athleticism, probably you didn't 345 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: have a good offensive line. What does that do for 346 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: your confidence level. I'm torn, man, because I see I see, like, 347 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: for instance, Justin Fields in Chicago, right, we talked about 348 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: and I kind of heard your inshow with Josh Allen 349 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: and the MVP Chance and Andy Dalton on the other 350 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,160 Speaker 1: ends of getting boot off the field before he even 351 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: throws his first pass. So it's like you're either the 352 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: MVP or the worst in the league on like, do 353 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: we want to put Justin Fields behind the Chicago Bears 354 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: offensive line that I've watched for the last three weeks. 355 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: Absolutely not, And just because I've been in that situation before, Yeah, 356 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: Justin Okay, you have to ask yourself a question if 357 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: you're a Bears fan, Justin Fields in this day and 358 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: age has the opportunity to play quarterback for you guys 359 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: for the next fifteen years, Right, So do you want 360 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: to risk that by throwing him into a situation where, yes, 361 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: athletically he can survive the situation, but he's already shown 362 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: the ability and honestly to his default, it's going to 363 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: be to move. It's always going to be to move 364 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: and make a play with his legs because he's always 365 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: been able to do that. So he's gonna revert back 366 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: to that when situations suck, and with the Chicago Bears 367 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: the way that they're set up right now, he's not 368 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: going to develop into the pastor that he maybe could 369 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: be if he's out there developing really bad habits. And 370 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: I know because I've done it, and I was in 371 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 1: that situation where you know, you're you're in the cornerback 372 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: room and the quarterback coach is saying he just gotta 373 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: just gotta buy some time right here, just just trust 374 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: the receivers, let their routes develop. I break the meeting, 375 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: I walk down the hallway. The offensive line coach grabs 376 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: and he puts his arm around. He says, days, we've 377 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: got to find a way to get the ball of 378 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: our hand faster. And I'm like, okay, I'm twenty one 379 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: years old. Who do I listen to? You know? So 380 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: that's like, that's the situation Justin's going to be in. 381 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: Is the offensive line's coach. Offensive line coach is gonna say, hey, 382 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: let's get the ball of our hand, let's find a 383 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: way to run get out of there. And Matt Naggie 384 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,239 Speaker 1: and those guys are going to be trying to get 385 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: him to develop into the pastor that they want him 386 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 1: to be. Now you can kind of do both. Russell 387 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: Wilson and Justin have very similar traits. When I watched 388 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: Russell play early on, they couldn't keep him off the fields. 389 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 1: You remember Matt, I think Matt Flynn was there. Russell 390 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: went in, he made plays dynamically with his legs, and 391 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: he was able to kind of develop into that passer 392 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: as he was working through running with the ball and 393 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: being smart and sliding and taking care of his body. 394 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: Now he's a rare breed. A guy's a tremendous talent, 395 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: you know, and Justin is also, But Russell was able 396 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: to work through that and become the pastor that he 397 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: is now still with the threat to run. So it's just, man, 398 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: the odds aren't in your favor if you just throw 399 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: a guy out there and try to have him just 400 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: survived because you're not very good. I just I'm not 401 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: for it. I'd love to see Justin play for a 402 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: long time and have great success, you know, playing quarterback 403 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 1: and then using his legs when he has to not 404 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: because he's just absolutely in an emergency situation every time. Yeah, 405 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: and you're going to revert back to what you do well, 406 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: and that is that you want to be athletic and 407 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: make a play, extend to play. Whereas mac Jones is 408 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: behind an offensive line that's really good and will be 409 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: protected better, Trey Lance will be behind a better offensive line, 410 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: he'll be better protective. I think that's the difference here 411 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: is justin field. If he was with the Patriots or 412 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: with the Niners, then you could say, hey, you don't 413 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: have to try to make a play. You know, we'll 414 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: pick and pick our spots, web design running plays. But 415 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: trying to handicap this with it's different quarterbacks, different situations. 416 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: It's not this blanket. You got to throw the rookie 417 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: out there and let him play. Like Zach Wilson, I 418 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: don't know what I mean. I would be nervous if 419 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: I'm a Jets fan that Zack Wilson is going out there. 420 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: We don't have a legitimate backup. Our offensive line has 421 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: not been good, and I'm sending the kid out there 422 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: into battle. Yeah, I'm with you, and I think the 423 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: and every situation is different. And like for Zach Wilson, 424 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: you know what I've seen in the preseason has been fantastic. 425 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: You guys been great on the money downs, Like, I 426 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: don't care really what you do on first and second down. 427 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: That's easy, you know, that's what you should be able 428 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,719 Speaker 1: to do. And that's a lot of it's on your 429 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, and they've done a good job in New 430 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 1: York just what I've seen so far in the first 431 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: couple weeks. But what he's been great on is in 432 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: third down, stand in the pocket, making throws to Corey Davis, 433 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: utilizing his arm strength. He just kind of whipped the 434 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: ball to the sideline just effortlessly off of plays that 435 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: are kind of broken. So I see all the ability 436 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 1: there for Zach Wilson, no question about it. I think 437 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 1: to your point, the only thing that I could say 438 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: is that offensive scheme is going to be such where 439 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 1: they're going to utilize you know, it's it's just like 440 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: kind of Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay. These guys are 441 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: gonna move the pocket a lot. So it's not necessarily 442 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: a situation that I see in Chicago where Chicago doesn't 443 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: really not really that good at it, like Matt Naggy 444 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: should be, you know, being in the chief system and 445 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: having that ability, but his offense has always left me 446 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: like man where's this dynamic ability yet to create offense 447 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: for your quarterback? And I haven't seen that. I think 448 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: I have seen that so far with what they're gonna 449 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: do with the Jets. So I feel a little bit 450 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: better about that situation. Not great, but I feel a 451 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: little bit better about it because when they do to 452 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: ask him to take shots down the field or hold 453 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: the ball, it's gonna be where he's on the move 454 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: and he can kind of protect himself. And to your point, 455 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: they don't have anybody else like they don't. I just 456 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: don't see, Like I mean, bring a veteran in, like 457 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 1: have him, have him been able to watch a kid, 458 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: you know, watch a guy go through it for the 459 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: first couple of weeks. You know, that would be a 460 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: lot better situation in my opinion. But thematically I feel 461 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: better about the Jet situation I do about Chicago. He's 462 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: David Carr. You can follow NFL Network analyst David Carr 463 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: on Twitter at de car eight. What's the meanest thing 464 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: you've said about your brother's performance. I'm old school man, 465 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: so like well, I try to. I try to. He 466 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: has to be smart. You gotta be smart as a quarterback, 467 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: And for me, I used to lift with the offensive lineman. 468 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: I used to want to run over everybody. I used 469 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 1: to want to play the game physical, just for the 470 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: respect of my teammates. You know, that was it. And 471 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: for Derek, he is so tapped in, like he's at 472 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: another level as far as understanding where to go football, 473 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,719 Speaker 1: how to find a completion instantly, and Gruden preaches it NonStop, 474 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: like completions, completions, completions. This guy just sent me. I mean, 475 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: this is probably not doesn't need to be public knowledge, 476 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: but he completed ninety five percent of his passes in 477 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 1: team drills through training camp, ninety five percent, and Peyton 478 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: Manning needs to talk about Peyton would complete like eighty 479 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: five percent and root and challenging with that. And he 480 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: sent me a text yesterday said ninety five percent. So 481 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: the guys like he's going to find a completion and 482 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: John's going to preach that, and I wish that they 483 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: would allow him to push the ball down the field 484 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more. And it's not it's not really Derek, 485 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: it's just John's scheme. You know. They're gonna just find 486 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: a way to get the ball in their playmakers hands, 487 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: and they're they're top ten. They're gonna be top ten 488 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: this year. They're They're wildly efficient. But he's always had 489 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: the ability to understand coverage, diagnose it, and take advantage 490 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: and take chunks out of guys, you know, and opponents. 491 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: So when are you ripping Hill? When are you ripping him? David? 492 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: I don't, I mean, I don't really rip him because 493 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: I at this point he plays fantastic football. I mean, 494 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: he's not going to be He's not gonna do these 495 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 1: crazy dynamic things like Josh Allen or Patrick mah Holmes 496 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: just you know, running backwards throwing these crazy He's going 497 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: to be very clean. He thinks Peyton Manning is the 498 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: greatest quarterback of all time. He tries to emulate that guy. 499 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: You know, he's gonna run when he has to, but 500 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: he understands that his mental ability to understand and breakdown 501 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: coverage and throw the football accurately is more important. So 502 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: I wish I could see a little bit more like 503 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: just kind of loose dynamic play from him, because I 504 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: know he's a great athlete. You know, that's just me 505 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: as a brother kind of wanting to be able to 506 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: do that because he's a better athlete than me. And 507 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: I wish I could use his ability, but he's gonna 508 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: play the way he plays, and he plays. He plays 509 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: fine for John and nically great. So it's hard at 510 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: nitpick man. He doesn't didn't turn the football over, he doesn't, 511 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: he doesn't make any negative plays. I mean, the really 512 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: the only thing that I that I can say is 513 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: I wish that we could push the ball down the 514 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: field a little bit more, you know, But it's yeah, 515 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: I mean they do, It's just that's just me. Eli 516 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: Manning was on a podcast with LaVar Arrington and he 517 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: was talking about how you know Jordan Loves he the answer, 518 00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: and Eli said to LaVar Arrington, h that's kind of 519 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: me reading between the lines. If I think he was 520 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: the answer, or if ownership thought he was the answer, 521 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 1: Rogers would be gone. Rogers probably knows that he's not 522 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: the answer also, so he could kind of play that 523 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: hand a little bit. Quarterbacks know, if a quarterback can 524 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: play right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, almost instantly, almost instant. Yeah. 525 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: So I have to believe Aaron Rodgers knew the Packers 526 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: weren't comfortable turning over the keys to this you know, 527 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: NFC title team to Jordan Love. They just didn't know. Therefore, 528 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: Rogers had the ultimate bargaining power and probably still does though, David, 529 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: because he's probably saying Jordan loves not the answer without 530 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 1: coming out and saying it. What do you think of 531 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: what Eli is alluding to? Well, you know, you can 532 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 1: watch my boys make fun of me all the time. 533 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: I got twenty one eighteen sixteen. We watched football games 534 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: and I'll watch a guy or two places and say, 535 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: now he's not a high school kid or collegead, like, 536 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 1: that's not it right, And they're like, come on, I'll 537 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: gi m a chance, and he's he's a five star recruit. 538 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: He's gonna go. I'm like, he's not it right. Maybe 539 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: he will be, but not right now. Right, So it's 540 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: exactly right. That's it. Aaron has, Aaron has all the 541 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: powered out. Jordan Love has been in my backyard one 542 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: hundred feet from where I am right now working out 543 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: with me. Have known him forever. He's from this area, 544 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: from Baker Still, California, went to Liberty High School. Know 545 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: him since he was yeah, a little kid, and I 546 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: love Jordan. But Jordan's not Aaron Rodgers. And Aaron Rodgers 547 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 1: knows that he's not Aaron Rodgers, and so I have 548 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: all the pool and I can I can run this thing. 549 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: And is Jordan's gonna be a fine player someday? Can 550 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: you'd be a starting quarterback? Absolutely, We've watched him play 551 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: in the preseason. He's he even looks the part. He's 552 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 1: kind of developed some of Aaron's mannerisms. I love quarterbacks 553 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: that are in the same room, kind of watch each other. 554 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 1: They kind of looked the same, you know, and they 555 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 1: all aim me like the starting quarterback and joined another 556 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: team a little bit. Should another team have taken Jordan 557 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: love Well, I mean that's yeah. I don't think the 558 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,719 Speaker 1: Packers should have. And that's just crazy because you're you're 559 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: you're sitting on the on the cusp of going to 560 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: a super Bowl. You're you're right there on the doorstep, 561 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: and your decision is another quarterback. I mean, it just 562 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: makes zero sense to me, just zero sense. So, yeah, 563 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: another team should have taken Jordan. When the Packers took Jordan, 564 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: everyone here is excited and I'm sitting there like, why 565 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 1: why would they do that? This is just gonna be 566 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: a disaster, Like it's gonna be He's not gonna play. 567 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: Aaron's gonna be upset. It's just gonna be a bad situation. 568 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: Go get another guy to help you win a Super Bowl. 569 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:33,640 Speaker 1: Try to get over the hump and beat the forty 570 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,719 Speaker 1: nine ers and get to the get to the big, 571 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: big game, you know. So, yeah, they shouldn't have taken him. 572 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 1: They did, and that's where they're at. So it's it's 573 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: their mess. They got to clean it up. Aaron's Aaron's 574 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 1: in the driver's seat. He goes out there. He's gonna 575 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: probably be pushing the BMDP again because their offense is great. 576 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: You got Davantae Adams are gonna run the ball well, 577 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: mattla Floor is a genius, and they'll be They'll be fine. 578 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: You know. The defense will play a little bit better. Um, 579 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 1: but yeah, they they're just that's the situation they made, 580 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: you know. Now, now you gotta live with it. Which 581 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 1: quarterback would you want this year? Justin Herbert or Matthew Stafford? 582 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: Oh man, that's a tough one. I get nervous about 583 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: the Chargers, not just because I don't say this is 584 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: because they're in an FC West and I want them 585 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: to be terrible and let my Raiders win. But I 586 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: get nervous about them just because of Joe Lombardi. And 587 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he's a bad coordinator, but he 588 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: had a chance in Detroit and wasn't great. He went 589 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: back to New Orleans and he I mean, Sean Payton's 590 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: brilliant in New Orleans. But let's not give everybody credit 591 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: that comes from New Orleans that they're gonna be great. 592 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: So I get I'm a little hesitant there, but he's 593 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 1: a tremendous talent. I don't know, man, I'm a big 594 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: fan of Matt Stafford. I always have been. I always 595 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: put in my top ten list. Everybody always gives me 596 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: crap for it just because he plays for Detroit. I mean, 597 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: you guys tough. He wants to play in big games. 598 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 1: He's got all the ability to do it. I love him. 599 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: With the Rams, I mean, they're gonna be They're gonna 600 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: be right there, man, They're gonna be in the championship game. 601 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: You can almost pencil them in for that, you know, 602 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,239 Speaker 1: just legally a talent on the defensive side, what they 603 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: have on offense. I'm not saying that you don't. You 604 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: don't want to take away anything away from Jared Goff. 605 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: That's the other thing that. I mean, Jared Goff got 606 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: to do Super Bowl. He played good football. He's one 607 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: of the better intermediate passers in the league. The thing 608 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: that they needed to do internally they looked at when 609 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: they got in trouble. When when his system runs into 610 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: a trouble. Sean McVay, it's when you get extra pressure 611 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: and you're not able to beat it with some smoking 612 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: mirrors with these Jets Sweeps with just getting the ball 613 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: quick to coop a cup and Robert Woods with not 614 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: being able to beat it with play action. When you 615 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: have to stand in the pocket, make reason decisions and 616 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: you have extra defenders coming at you, and you have 617 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: to get to be accurate, quick throw from different angles 618 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: and beat that pressure with great quarterback play from the pocket. 619 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: That was where Jared struggled, and they they solved that 620 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: big time because Matt Stafford is one of the best 621 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: I've ever been around at doing that the exact thing. 622 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: And they pinpointed that, they say, we need that. I 623 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: don't care if we've been to the Super Bowl. We're 624 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: gonna make our team better. In the Rams, to their credit, 625 00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: they've always made those moves. You know, go get Jalen 626 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: Ramsey when we're struggling the second day, go, you know, 627 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: do what you gotta do to get a player that's 628 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: going to take you the next level. And I think 629 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: they've done that with Matt. It's just a matter if 630 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: can they kind of bring it all together still be 631 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: that same consistent offense. But when they come down to 632 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: it and they got to throw the ball and they're 633 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: in the pocket, he's one of the best in the 634 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: league now, and so you're you're not working at a 635 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: disadvantage in that situation anymore. He's going to excel. Great 636 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 1: to talk to you as always, David.

Chris Collinsworth was part of the NBC 651 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: team broadcasting last night, and he said something that was 652 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: really interesting about the former UCLA star Josh Rosen and 653 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: being one of the more disappointing first round quarterbacks in 654 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: recent draft history. He was taking tenth overall in the 655 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen NFL Draft. He has thrown four under three 656 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: thousand yards, twelve touchdowns, nineteen interceptions over the course of 657 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: his career. He was signed earlier this month by the 658 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: Falcons after Atlanta lost AJ McCarron to the season, and 659 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: Sunday night, Rosen had some preseason action against the Browns 660 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: and Chris Collinsworth had a brutally honest comment on the quarterback. 661 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: But you don't get taken with the tenth overall pick 662 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: unless you have to tell. And I think that one 663 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: good thing about Josh Rosen as he's sort of taken 664 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: on some of his issues. One of his issues is 665 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:18,479 Speaker 1: not being smart. Okay, you know, as a quarterback, I 666 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: don't know what he's saying. You know, does he process 667 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: the information once he gets the line of scrimmage? Does 668 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: he put in the time behind the scenes. It almost 669 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: felt like when he was at UCLA he was too 670 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: smart for his own good. But by all accounts, there 671 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: were a lot of people, myself included, who thought he 672 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: looks like he's an NFL quarterback. But you quickly realized 673 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: that he was not. And it's not all based off 674 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: you know, when you go into the league and you 675 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: start early, then you're on a you know, suspect team. 676 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: And I thought that he had one of the worst 677 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: offensive lines. You get into bad habits. If Josh Rosen 678 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: had gone to a team that was better with a 679 00:32:56,280 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: better offensive line, would he have a different career. Probably so, 680 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: because Arizona didn't wait, They're like, uh, we're bad. What 681 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: did we think of Josh Rosen? I'm not sure? And 682 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals take Kyler Murray. That's it. That's how 683 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 1: long it takes. I mean, Tua Tongueblo is in that 684 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: situation right now, because no matter what the Dolphins say, 685 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: he's not their quarterback of the future. No matter what 686 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,239 Speaker 1: the Eagles say with Jalen Hurts, I don't believe they 687 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: truly think he's the quarterback of the future. And that's 688 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: why the Dolphins have always been in the conversation for 689 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: DeShawn Watson. Brian Flores, the Dolphins head coach, didn't exactly 690 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: answer the question about are the Dolphins interested in DeShawn Watson. 691 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I would say, I'm interested in the players 692 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: that are on our team, you know, That's what I'm 693 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:53,719 Speaker 1: interested in. I'm interested in, you know, Edsonette, who went 694 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: out there and played it, you know, is butt off tonight. 695 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: I'm interested in Jared Oaks, who who we talked about 696 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: a second go. I'm interested in the guys who that 697 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: didn't play today and that you know, we're focused on 698 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: our recovery and being fresh for next week. That's that's 699 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: what I would say. I mean, I'm interested in the 700 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: players on the Miami Dolphins. Not exactly clearing it up there, 701 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: but I understand what he's saying. I mean, he used 702 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: to work with Belichick and he's a podium thumper too, 703 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: which drives me crazy. Are they interested? I don't even 704 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: think you can talk about another player on another team. 705 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: Brian Flores probably avoids being fined in a situation like this, 706 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: but you have to ask the question because the Dolphins, 707 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: this story doesn't go away, and now we know what 708 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,320 Speaker 1: the Texans will take in return for Deshaun Watson. According 709 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 1: to Yahoo Sports, it's there. Hadn't gone away, no matter 710 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: what Philadelphia does, no matter what Miami does, no matter 711 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: what Carolina does. The story is still there that this 712 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 1: is if you want DeShawn Watson, this is what it's 713 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: going to take, and those three teams continue when he 714 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:11,240 Speaker 1: come up. Here is Bill Belichick ask about his quarterbacking situation? 715 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: Do you have to announce who you're starting quarterback is 716 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 1: to the world and deserted an advantage in your preparation 717 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 1: if your opponent doesn't know. Again, I would just say 718 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 1: Tom that what we're gonna do is what we feel 719 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: is best for our football team and that's what it'll be. Yeah, 720 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 1: and have best a team that keeps that under wraps 721 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 1: or would it be best for the team to know 722 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: what the situation is at certain positions? Yep, yeah, excuse me. 723 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 1: There was one exqueese me. I have no idea what 724 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: you're talking about. Tom Kerran was you know, hanging in 725 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: there with Belichick. Yes, Hedon's classic Tom Kern moment right there. Yep. Uh. 726 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: Here is Mac Jones, who's auditioning to become our next. 727 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: Jimmy Jimmerson, the Patriots quarterback, on if he could be 728 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: the starter in New England? Do you think you've played 729 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: well enough to be the star? What do you say? 730 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: Do you think you've played well enough to be the starter? 731 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I've got a lot of opportunities to play, 732 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 1: and I can improve on everything that I want to 733 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: improve on. So I think just learning from Hoyer, Cam Terry, 734 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: anybody I can, and just listening to Josh and his coaching. 735 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: There's a lot of work to do, but I think 736 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: I've made progress. But honestly, it's just the only thing 737 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: that matters is today and then tomorrow. Focus on tomorrow. 738 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: But I think the past is the past, and we're 739 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: kind of moving on to the new new season. Here 740 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: passes the past. I'm here to talk about today, and 741 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:56,439 Speaker 1: then I'll be here to talk about tomorrow. Fred Wright 742 00:36:56,520 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: thirty two on too Ready Break Now. Whenever I hear 743 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: somebody talk, especially if it's an NFL insider, I always 744 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 1: think of Jimmy Jimmerson that he didn't say anything, but 745 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: he takes a long time to not say anything. And 746 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,800 Speaker 1: it's quite a knack for our NFL insider, Jimmy Jimmerson. 747 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,760 Speaker 1: For example, if I say to Jimmy Jimmerson, hey, would 748 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: you start Justin Fields in Chicago? Jimmy, what are you? 749 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: What are you finding out? Well? Right now, Matt, Matt 750 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 1: Naggie and his staff are going back through the preseason 751 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: looking seeing who had the most reps, who had the 752 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: most quality reps actually, and right now it's coming down 753 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: between Andy Dalton and Justin Fields. They're very high draft pick. 754 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: Obviously Andy Dalton was the man before they drafted Fields, 755 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: but now since Field has joined the roster, there's a 756 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 1: little bit more of a battle going on. I think 757 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: for that week one star. Okay, yeah, thank you, that's Jimmy. 758 00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: That's our insider, Jimmy Jimmerson. Thank you. Jimmy Dalton was 759 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: the starter before they drafted Field, yes he was, but 760 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: now the Fields is there. Now there's a true quarterback battle. 761 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: And once again, Jimmy Jimmerson is not based off of 762 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: one particular person a handful, but I had another NFL employee, 763 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: I don't want to say if he's an analyst or 764 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: an insider. But he wanted to know if this was 765 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: an inside joke and it was based upon him, and 766 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 1: I said no, But if you if you hear some 767 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: things and you can add to Jimmy Jimmerson's resume, then 768 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: we would love that to a man, to a man, 769 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: I might have hit a little bit close to home 770 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 1: for some people. Yes, and what does that say about 771 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,479 Speaker 1: that insecure analyst or insider that thinks that maybe maybe 772 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: about bad person and what they deliver every day. If 773 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,919 Speaker 1: they think it might be about that, that just makes 774 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 1: it even better, Paulie, I didn't get you to your 775 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: best and worst of the weekends outside because you get 776 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 1: to know this name. Archer Sikowski, the Illinois quarterback. Big 777 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: weekend for Archer one hundred and twenty four yards, two touchdowns. 778 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: I figure I gotta get some of the line I 779 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: football in. I think we're good for the season. But 780 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: UCLA had a good weekend forty four to ten over 781 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors. They running back for Ucla, Zach 782 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 1: Charbonnet cool names six carries, one six yards and three touchdowns. 783 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: He everge seventeen point seven yards of carry. Probably won't 784 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 1: keep that up for the season. Thank you. Back to you, 785 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: Barry in Long Island. Best and worst of the weekend, 786 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: Hey Barry, good morning. Fellas has a Met fan for 787 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: over fifty years, there hasn't been the best of the 788 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: weekend since nineteen eighty six. Obviously the worst of the 789 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: weekend that Schmendric Habibaya's basically giving us the finger. You 790 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: know this is not Saint Louis, where you know you 791 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 1: fail game after game after game after game, and the 792 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 1: fansing kumbai ya and bringing milk and cookies after the game. 793 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna go to mar just to just 794 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: to boo No Jets, Jets, Jet Jets. Right, thank you, Baron. 795 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: He has playing, but for a Mets fan to goof 796 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: on Saint Louis Cardinals fans for not criticizing their players 797 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 1: when they lose game after gamer, over the game is 798 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: flawed because the Saint Louis Cardinals don't lose game after 799 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: game again, They're always competitive, They're always in the playoff line. 800 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: So Hobbi Baiez has had enough of New York Mets 801 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: fans booing him, and he decided to take matters into 802 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: his own hands, literally, because since he came to the 803 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,959 Speaker 1: Mets of the trade deadline, he's batting two O seven 804 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: three homers in five RBI sixteen games. Fans have been 805 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: booing him. He's been struggling and came over from Chicago 806 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 1: and they don't boo in Chicago. They're either you know, 807 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: drinking or what else are they doing? The ordering the 808 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,879 Speaker 1: next period, Oh, that's right now. He he won there. 809 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: He's a very good player there, and it's different. But 810 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: you come to the match and the Mets are just 811 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 1: they're waiting for something positive to happen. I mean, keep 812 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,720 Speaker 1: in mind the match of a nine and twenty record. 813 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 1: Since the trade deadline, they have dropped out a first 814 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: place and they're out of the playoff picture as well. Well. 815 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: Hobby Bayez had a gesture to the fans and uh, 816 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: he was basically giving a thumbs down to the fans 817 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: after hitting a home run. And here's what Hobby bay 818 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 1: has had to say about that gesture after the game. 819 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 1: It just it just feels bad when when we strike o, 820 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: when I'll strike out, when I gave boo, you know, 821 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't really get to me, but like I want, 822 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: I want to let them know that, well we success, 823 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna do the same thing to know how to 824 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: let them know how how it feels, you know, because 825 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 1: if we went together, then we gotta lose to together, 826 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: you know, and and and the fans are really big 827 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: part of it, so they gotta be better. You know. 828 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 1: I'll play for the fans, and I love the fans, 829 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: but you know, if if they're going to do that, 830 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 1: they do put it more pressures on the team, and 831 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 1: that's not that's not all we want, or is that 832 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: it thumbs down to fans? Then well, yeah, I mean 833 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: to let them know that we were we don't guess 834 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: says we're gonna get booed, so they're gonna get booed 835 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:20,320 Speaker 1: on what was this this? Okay? Does he have a 836 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: point in any of this? Would a more supportive fan 837 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 1: base be better? I never understood when fans boo like, 838 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: I know, you paid the price to come into the game. Uh, 839 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,439 Speaker 1: you're you're paying part of their salaries, or at least 840 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: you're you're going to feel that way. Does booing your 841 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 1: player your team help? Does it help the player in 842 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 1: the team? Now, it might help you because you're angry 843 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 1: and this is your team. And you want to win 844 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 1: and you're tired of seeing this movie every single year. 845 00:42:54,480 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 1: It ends the same way Hopes die. If I'm gonna boo, 846 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: this is so my fan my team. If I'm a fan, 847 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna boo if you don't give me effort, if 848 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: you don't run out a groundball, if you pose after 849 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: what you think is a home run and you end up, 850 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: you know, getting thrown out at second base, then I 851 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:24,760 Speaker 1: have a problem with that. But can you imagine another sport. 852 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: Think of another sport where we look at a player 853 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 1: and we know he's not giving one hundred percent, he's 854 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: not giving full effort. Whence the last time you did that? 855 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: In football? Guys take plays off in football all the time. 856 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: Nobody is booing basketball. You had really noticed when somebody's 857 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 1: going to take a night off. Now you might say, well, 858 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: Lebron's not playing defense, okay, But when you're in baseball 859 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: and you're at the plate, you're all alone. It's just you, 860 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: like you're the opera singer. The spotlight's on you, it's 861 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: just you. You want to boo the opposition, okay, But 862 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 1: to boo your own player, how does that help him? 863 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 1: And I know if your hobby bias. Just play better, 864 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 1: that's all what came first, the booze or your poor performance. 865 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: If he was playing well, then nobody's booing you. The 866 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 1: fans want expect, like, there's part of you that has 867 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: to understand. The New York fan base, the nick fans 868 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 1: still go, they're embarrassing that team, that product has been embarrassing. 869 00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 1: They still go. They still wanted so badly the Mets. 870 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: It's been a long time, the Jets been a long time. 871 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: It means so much. That's that's their passion. Booing. I 872 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: never understood it. Didn't think it helped the player. It's 873 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 1: not like the player goes, yeah, I just struck out. 874 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 1: Oh they're booing me. I'm gonna try even harder when 875 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: I get up there. What are you gonna do? Swing harder? 876 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: It doesn't help. But if you're a fan and fans 877 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: think that you that the players can hear them. Seaton 878 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:17,439 Speaker 1: was at an All Star game? Was that Yankee Stadium? Yeah, 879 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: and you were at not the top row, but second 880 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 1: to the last row. I was second to the last row. Yeah. 881 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 1: It was like a contest. We did and I brought 882 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: a like listener of the show to the All Star 883 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: Game and we had we were in the second to 884 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: last row, and the guy who was right sitting right 885 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: behind us in the last row during batting practice was 886 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 1: yelling booalls, booalls, you're a bum, You're a bomb, and 887 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 1: he did that for about three hours straight. Bolls, you're 888 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: a bom. There's no way Albert Poolholes was here in 889 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: this dude that far up. But sometimes you get the 890 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: guy who's in your section who thinks it's live at 891 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,280 Speaker 1: the improv and you know he's gonna have some funny 892 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 1: lines here. Yes, Todd, Yeah, he's humor himself. And if 893 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: he gets the slightest chuckle from believe me, I know 894 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: I'll grab a slight chuckle over total silence anytime they 895 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: think that they're performing, and they must know in the 896 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 1: back of their mind there's no way they can hear. 897 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: But then you have the Bayas of the world who 898 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 1: react to the fans. And now maybe some people do 899 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: hear the fans. Some of the players do because there 900 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 1: are examples where the outfield that turns around and smiles 901 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: or waves or whatever, So that just feeds the hole. 902 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: I bet you if I scream loud enough, they can 903 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:29,959 Speaker 1: hear me, and they're gonna turn around and say something, 904 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 1: thank you ton. Yes. And it's always funny that the 905 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: guy who gets called a bomb or you suck is 906 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: usually the best player on earth. Like Albert Poolholes when 907 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: we were there that night, he's not a bomb. You know, 908 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 1: like if you're in the crowd that night, he's the 909 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 1: least bum. He's hitting like three seventy eight, you're a bum. 910 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 1: Let's take a break. More phone calls coming up. And 911 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: if you have thoughts on this, you know, as a fan, 912 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 1: if you think, yeah, we should be able to boo, 913 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: I mean you can boo, it just does that really 914 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: help your team? And I've seen both situations. I have 915 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 1: been there in Saint Louis when they don't boo. But 916 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 1: then you have other situations, certainly in New York or 917 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:14,720 Speaker 1: Philadelphia they do.
