Speaker 3: an hour earlier that, you know, get settled in, and

24
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 3: then some pops up and it's a half hour still,

25
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 3: like eight minutes ahead of my typical ten to fifty

26
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 3: one soldier schedule.

27
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: As I'm stepping out the.

28
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 3: Door, ups truck pulls up to deliver these big, heavy

29
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 3: doors we're just putting in a closet in our house,

30
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 3: and I have to help the man.

31
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 2: They're so heavy. I helped the man bring in the closets.

32
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 3: Wipes out the eight minute window ten to fifty one

33
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: soldier and now it's starting to feel like a bigger

34
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 3: conspiracy cess dog.

35
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 4: All right, ready, ups truck, go, ups truck. We're just

36
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 4: directing the whole thing, right.

37
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: But your intention was to come here earlier, and my intention, okay.

38
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 5: To really said to what end? Would this be? A

39
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 5: make you so up at ten fifty one? But what

40
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 5: is the goal?

41
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: That's well, that's what I want to know.

42
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 6: We don't know, Like you can't look the fates are

43
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 6: the fates are working your schedule, not you fate.

44
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 3: I mean, fate would be one thing, okay, but I'm

45
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 3: I am thinking something bigger.

46
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 4: Literally always parking as soon as I pull in the

47
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 4: garage behind him, like it's always orchestrated.

48
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 3: So it's not just me, So Colleen, it was coming

49
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 3: from a totally different area of the South Bay. Is

50
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 3: also the way the traffic patterns work, the stoplights, How

51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 3: is this happening.

52
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 7: Ex exactly raining today? That adds another wrinkle.

53
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: That's wrench but not not in this case.

54
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 5: So anyway, it's like it's the new eighth wunder of

55
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 5: the world.

56
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 7: Really everyone wants to know about it.

57
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 2: Also, what I want to know about Mark Sessler.

58
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 3: You you come from a different area of Los Angeles,

59
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 3: the right to work, and one of your early texts

60
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,119
Speaker 3: this morning was about something that's on your radar here

61
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 3: in the office, and I could not wait to hear

62
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 3: about it.

63
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 2: Well, uh, you know, it's disturbing to me personally.

64
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: I'd say it's developing a developing situation because huh huh, Well,

65
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 3: i'd label it under the category of theft. So like

66
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 3: one of the perks when you go to the Super

67
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 3: Bowl and do all the work that we did and

68
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 3: have the great time that we had, you come back

69
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: in on your desk. They have a Super Bowl program

70
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 3: which you can give to a child or something.

71
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 7: This has never happened to me.

72
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: Well, this is I don't this this is happening. You

73
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: don't have a desk. Ye and the like does have

74
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 2: a desk, but he's never said at standard there is

75
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: a desk you could sit at near us.

76
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 6: So a super Bowl program neatly put on on on

77
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 6: the desk and on top of it in a in

78
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 6: a in a plaster in a cardboard box is a

79
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 6: super Bowl ticket encased in glass.

80
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 2: It's a wonderful meto, especially in the past.

81
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say about five years they went away the

82
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 3: league from physical tickets taking it to the game, and

83
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 3: now it's a digital situation. So this ticket, Like I

84
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 3: took my buddy Greg from New York to the game,

85
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: and he's a huge sports fan, had always wanted to

86
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 3: go to the Super Bowl, and he was really bummed.

87
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 3: And I said, guess what, they do have this ticket

88
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 3: that they put in glass, and I'm going to give

89
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 3: it to you.

90
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 2: I see. So it's a gift. You can give it

91
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 2: to a child. Again.

92
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 6: Finds it fascinating anyone that didn't go to the game.

93
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 6: And so I always look forward to it and I'm

94
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 6: thankful for it. And my attitude has been, you know,

95
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 6: pleasant towards the whole.

96
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 4: Situation, which I thought everyone was just buying these tickets

97
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,799
Speaker 4: and they're also no, they're also they're valuable.

98
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: So like there you know it is.

99
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 6: So I come in and I, you know, I you know,

100
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 6: so our desk is like you know, smashed up against

101
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 6: glass where all these tour groups come in and all

102
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 6: these people are riff rapping in and out the door

103
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 6: right behind my desk and everywhere, like Dan's desk super

104
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 6: Bowl program neatly put out and his little ticket in

105
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 6: the cardboard box.

106
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 2: Of course.

107
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 6: I look at Greg's desk and it's like to per

108
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 6: he got, yeah, it's perfect, and everything's fine.

109
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 2: I I And then on my.

110
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 6: Desk, the super Bowl program has just been like ripped

111
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 6: open to someone's like meeting a magazine.

112
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 2: No, and the ticket in the box are gone.

113
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 6: So someone literally went to my desk not only stole

114
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 6: the thing, but then just sat and read read my

115
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,799
Speaker 6: super Bowl program, probably in my seat, and then said, fu,

116
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 6: I'm going to take this valuable item and leave.

117
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: Mark. Of course it is a good read.

118
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 5: Judy Batista often contributes Steve Weiss.

119
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 6: The program is not my concern. I already have a program.

120
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,119
Speaker 6: So someone someone stole, like someone stole this precious item

121
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 6: from simply and I walked around in like every desk,

122
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 6: like Clockwork has this like perfect little program and a

123
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 6: little you know, trinket.

124
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 7: Sounds like a case for Frank Signetti.

125
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 6: I think it does big based, so I don't know,

126
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 6: it's you know, welcome back to work.

127
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: It's great to be back together.

128
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 3: As they say, that's wow, that's a major and that

129
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: and I understand Mark, and it's especially it's annoying because

130
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 3: Old Greggy and the Zoustag both have our programs and

131
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 3: tickets and and yet it's almost like you were targeted.

132
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 6: Well it was also, and I'm not going to dig

133
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 6: into this, there was a seating situation at the super

134
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 6: Bowl where you know, Dane and Greg's guests got put

135
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 6: up like an at lastment and I had to keep

136
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 6: keep a little this but my seats were like yeah

137
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 6: in Nosebleeds Central. So it's like someone is on the

138
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 6: prowl to disengage me further from the entire miss your take.

139
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 5: You can have my ticket so that that takes care

140
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 5: of that.

141
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 6: Well, that's very nice, but I actually think you could

142
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 6: give it to Walker for instance, who would love it.

143
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 6: And I would just ask hr, how do I get

144
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 6: another one of these?

145
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's great that's very kind. That is very kind.

146
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 3: I was also Walker's first Super Bowl. Yeah, it's kind

147
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 3: of robbing Peter to pay Paul a little bit. I

148
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 3: can't take that.

149
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 5: I don't think I've ever brought one of those home.

150
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,119
Speaker 5: I always give them to people.

151
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: I don't know. Your son went to his first Super Bowl.

152
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 5: I'm not a big things guy. It just feels like

153
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 5: it weighs you down.

154
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 6: I think I'm not a big things guy either, and

155
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 6: it's robbed from me.

156
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's it's more the violation. Yes, nine, I

157
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 2: feel like he would appreciate.

158
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 3: Okay, he would, But because we don't need to take

159
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,440

166
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,560

00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 3: on any other NFL podcast Nay Sports podcast last week,

236
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 3: But we are now back.

237
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 2: In today's episode.

238
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 3: In addition to getting caught up on everything that's happened

239
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: since Super Bowl fifty eight, we're going to share, in

240
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 3: our opinion, the biggest storylines of the twenty twenty four

241
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 3: off season, in which we are now firmly Connie.

242
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 2: Oh ye planted.

243
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 7: There's a lot.

244
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 4: There's so many Mark has already come up with, like

245
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 4: seventy four different options.

246
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 2: Now the season's begun. Football's back. No.

247
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 3: Mark had concerns about the Russell Wilson's in the news

248
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,959
Speaker 3: for selling his house. Mark asked, nicely, maybe we should

249
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 3: take it out of the news because that might be

250
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 3: the biggest storyline of the off season for when we

251
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 3: get to that side.

252
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 6: I thought it lived in that world to some degree.

253
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 6: But I'm sure we will spend exhaustive time during the

254
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 6: news nugget item going down the road and explaining what

255
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 6: it means.

256
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 4: Separately, Mark politely flagged this for you, right, and I'm

257
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,719
Speaker 4: derided for it by these two, and I see you

258
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 4: get us.

259
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, we don't need this, we get it stuff.

260
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 3: I said, we'll take it out of the news if

261
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 3: that is indeed your biggest.

262
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 6: Off because I already I already did an end around

263
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 6: and he said it was on your list. I need

264
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 6: to put it on the list because I knew it

265
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 6: would be caused mental all of.

266
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 3: A sudden, we're in this marked vortext because we did.

267
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 3: I said, we'll take it out. We'll take it out. No,

268
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 3: it'll be all yours.

269
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,359
Speaker 5: No, No, definitely the least necessary news item to be fair.

270
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 2: I think we don't change the show during the show.

271
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: Now it's good. Now it's we're into let's do some news.

272
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 2: So is that a wolf we talked about high el dark?

273
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 3: I think it runs the whole gamut. I mean, if

274
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 3: you get into I'm not you know, I'm sort of

275
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 3: an f fringe elf individual. Like the fact that I

276
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 3: thinks some people thought it doesn't represent a tough, you know,

277
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 3: football player.

278
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,359
Speaker 2: Well, there's a lot of things happening with elves.

279
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 3: That could cause a problem for the Ravens or Steelers,

280
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 3: I think, depending on some of their powers.

281
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 2: So you will leave it out.

282
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 3: We'll leave that right there at that.

283
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 2: In case you missed it from Radio Row.

284
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 3: That's Mark Sessler and they sit down with Denzel Ward

285
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 3: and Miles Garrett of the Browns. I I, you can

286
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: only tee these players up, you know what I mean?

287
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 2: Right?

288
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 3: And I thought you did a brilliant job there giving

289
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 3: them a chance of platform to dig in on the

290
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 3: elves and if they don't want to take it and

291
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 3: run with it, they don't have to.

292
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 2: Well, so two things were happening real quick.

293
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 6: I realized I've already talked a lot on the show

294
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 6: about personal items, but no go ahead, well, well no

295
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 6: one that was That was the day that we drove

296
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 6: into like Las Vegas, the right right to this and

297
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 6: it was this was like eighteen minutes into the show

298
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 6: where it's like and I had come in like with

299
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,719
Speaker 6: my health at like a one out of ten, and

300
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 6: I talked about on this thing. I had no voice

301
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 6: and I just felt medicated, and like at one point

302
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 6: I'm looking over and like Miles Garrett was where dan Us,

303
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 6: He's just looking at me like has got issues. This

304
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 6: is also like a top ten brown of all that.

305
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 5: It looks very amused, got the look on his face

306
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 5: like I'm not gonna have to say much here.

307
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: This guy is doing great.

308
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 6: It got for me, It got better because I had

309
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 6: two listed questions because this has happened to have been

310
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 6: derailed before, is like serious questions or fun questions.

311
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 2: And I was like I'm gonna I'm not going to

312
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 2: go down the wrong road.

313
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 6: And then like you're supposed to ask the sponsor question first,

314
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 6: and I'm like eight questions in and realized I hadn't

315
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 6: asked the sponsor question, and I asked in a weird way.

316
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 6: And the note we got from you know, upper management,

317
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 6: the next day was like you don't go off script

318
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 6: on the on the sponsor, and then you were saddled

319
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 6: with overly.

320
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 2: The rest of the week.

321
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 5: I'm very distracted right now because uh Lincoln Wrestling and Lakeisha.

322
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: Podcast.

323
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Link is waving and it's melting my heart and.

324
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 2: The whole show is derailed. Wow, I forgot that Lakeisha's

325
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 2: in town. Wow, we an incredible.

326
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not overly confide then, Like I feeling

327
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 3: good that Link is in this building right now, I

328
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 3: feel like we would be the most dangerous building in

329
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 3: Los Angeles based on the.

330
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 4: He's going to come inside the arc here, We're going

331
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 4: to get him inside the arc.

332
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 2: We saw that.

333
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 5: I saw them yesterday for a little bowling in dinner.

334
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 5: It would have been Chris Wesleyan's fiftieth birthday, Oh day.

335
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 4: And.

336
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 5: Mine as well, and Roger Goodell's the treat the pillars

337
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 5: like the Rams have Aaron Donald and Stafford. The weight

338
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 5: bearing walls unbelievable.

339
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 2: Well did you turn.

340
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 5: I'm forty five, so I'm five five years younger. What's

341
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 5: going big one? But uh, I think Chris would Chris

342
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 5: would have been proud with no prep, no telling him

343
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 5: what to do. Link just took that bowling ball and

344
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 5: threw the thing down there for a three year old,

345
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 5: like like an athlete.

346
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 2: Surprise.

347
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 3: It's in the westling DNA, I mean their ability to

348
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 3: play parlor games and bowling and yeah, and things of

349
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 3: that nature. In fact, that was I was last weekend

350
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 3: or this past weekend. I was up in Big Bear

351
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 3: where I go every year with my buddy Bob and

352
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 3: his family and our family have a nice time together.

353
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 3: And we happened to be staying at a house that

354
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 3: we had rented that was directly behind the Motor Inn

355
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 3: motel where in twenty fifteen, I think we figured out

356
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 3: Mark West and myself did a weekend in Big Bear

357
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 3: that was debauchrous on multiple levels. It was a all

358
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 3: time Chris night out performance by Chris.

359
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 7: The twinkle in Sessler's eyes right now, No.

360
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: Because it was. It was like it had many layers.

361
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: It was. It would be hard to tell our story about.

362
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 3: All I can tell you is the night ends with

363
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 3: us putting West to bed in one of the twin beds,

364
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 3: and Mark and I going into this little kitchen and

365
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 3: eating bad pizza and listening to counting crows. But We

366
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 3: had an amazing like, as I walked, I have to cut.

367
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 3: We cut through the house, through this parking lot and

368
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 3: there it is. It's room number one, this motor lodge

369
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 3: with the chairs. And then I got this flashback of

370
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: because Wes and I were very dorky about softball, so

371
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: we brought our gloves and I remember the parking lot

372
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 3: where we were having catch and I believe you were

373
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 3: sitting in the chair and we were just talking. And

374
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 3: then there was a brewery across the street where we

375
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 3: went to Bear Mountain Brewery. A lot of memories and

376
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 3: I didn't even connect that it was on his birthday

377
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: that this was going on.

378
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 2: So a fiftieth that is a crazy, crazy thing. All right,

379
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 2: get on track. He's like this a football page. We'll

380
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 2: get there. We'll get there.

381
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 7: The off season was like kind of bigun.

382
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like we haven't seen each other for a week.

383
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 5: We have a lot of catching up to do. We

384
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 5: just couldn't.

385
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 2: They don't. They don't really talk football. I would like

386
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: to I like a real deep dive. Shut up this

387
00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 2: this feels quiet, little nerd. I love the listeners, right,

388
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 2: and I.

389
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 5: Don't think anyone's thinking that taking your head.

390
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 2: Silence, silence, four eyes nerds. All right, let's get into it. Connie.

391
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 3: When we were in Vegas, yes, when we talked about

392
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 3: the kind of subplots that are under.

393
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 2: The radar, that you know that like real football heads.

394
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 3: At which we are, we can be that and also

395
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 3: have personalities and be human beings. What was your subplot

396
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 3: going into fifty eight?

397
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 7: Was it? Did I have to do with Steve will Steve.

398
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 2: Will, I don't really remember what it was.

399
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 5: What it was that it could be a launching pad

400
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 5: to greater it was.

401
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 2: It was a launching pad, all.

402
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 4: Right if he was able to get the defense together

403
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 4: and have a good performance and beat the Chiefs and

404
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 4: turn things around for himself, because the narrative all year

405
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 4: along was that he wasn't a fan and there was

406
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 4: the wrong plait and everything was name go.

407
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 3: Steve Wilkes was relieved of his duties three days after

408
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 3: the forty nine Ers fell short in the Super Bowl

409
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 3: against the Chiefs, a game where I didn't think their

410
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 3: defense played overly poorly, but there were more elements at

411
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 3: play behind the scenes.

412
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 2: Very clearly.

413
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 3: We talked about it on the show going into the

414
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 3: Super Bowl that maybe something wasn't quite right.

415
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 2: Here is Shanahan at his press conference this morning.

416
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,439
Speaker 9: I relieved Steve Wilkes of his duties. Gonna end up

417
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 9: making a change here defensive coordinator, and really tough decision

418
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 9: because really says nothing about Steve as a man or

419
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 9: as a football coach. I mean, he's exactly what we

420
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 9: wanted as a man. He is a great football coach,

421
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 9: but just where we're going, where we're at with our

422
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 9: team from a scheme standpoint and things like that. Looking

423
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 9: through it all throughout the year, through these last few days,

424
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 9: I felt pretty strongly that this was a decision that

425
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 9: was best for organization.

426
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 5: I'm not as surprised because Steve Wilkes came from outside,

427
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 5: like the Shanahan Tree, didn't have experience with him before.

428
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 5: Albert Breer wrote this thing that and it sounded like

429
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 5: something he had heard from inside the building, that the

430
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 5: management of the overtime period where you know, it was

431
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 5: kind of like the last straw, but that he might

432
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 5: have been on shaky ground even going into the overtime

433
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 5: where you know, there's a third and six and they

434
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 5: rushed seven, but the defensive backs are all back. If

435
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 5: you remember that play was a pretty easy conversion. And

436
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 5: then Shanahan actually took a time out later in that

437
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 5: overtime because he saw what that a similar setup was

438
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 5: going to happen on another third down, I believe, and

439
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 5: didn't like it and made him change the call. And

440
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 5: people are getting on Shanahan for making Steve Wilkes.

441
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 2: A bit of a scapegoat.

442
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 5: It felt like an awkward fit all year and they

443
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 5: did underachieve, So I think that's just the way it

444
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 5: goes sometimes.

445
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it's the old Like, you know, we

446
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 6: saw a lot of mid season coordinator firings on good

447
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 6: teams this year and like, but Shanahan had him come

448
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 6: down from the booth after they were whacked couple of

449
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 6: weeks in a row in the middle of the season,

450
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 6: and I let his words, like shanaan Elie is going

451
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 6: to be honest about stuff. He just said it was

452
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 6: harder than it needed to be. And it's like, you're

453
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 6: you're exactly right. Like it's almost Bellachecki in where like

454
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 6: so much of their coordinator action they've lost a lot

455
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 6: of coaches along the way, or just they're grooming in

456
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 6: house and it just wasn't a fit and Wilkes has

457
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 6: been successful in other places. He'll work again. It's not

458
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 6: that's not the question. But I think if you're it's

459
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 6: not just a scapegoat. Like their defense really let them

460
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 6: down later in the year. Their overall at that season.

461
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 5: They lost the Super Bowl because of the offense.

462
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:31,719
Speaker 2: They won.

463
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 5: They played defense more than well, and like if the

464
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 5: offense played to seventy five percent of their average game

465
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 5: in the Super Bowl, they win it. I pointed out

466
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 5: in that postgame pod, the first nine drives the Chiefs

467
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 5: had thirteen points. That's an entire game, So that the

468
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,880
Speaker 5: forty nine Ers offense kind of lost that Super Bowl.

469
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 5: If if we're doing blame here and Steve Wawks would

470
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 5: not have been fired if the defense had a great

471
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 5: performance in the Super Bowl, which it did until the

472
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 5: offense kind of let the Chiefs back in it. So

473
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 5: that's his bad luck. But that's also football. It's a

474
00:20:58,840 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 5: lot about luck.

475
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 7: But also the players didn't totally buy in.

476
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 4: It felt like like the star players, like the guys

477
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 4: like Fred Warner and Nick Bosa. Even after the game,

478
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 4: Nick Bosa said that the defense was not prepared well

479
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 4: enough to defend Mahomes and the Niners do run their

480
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 4: defense like a very specific way when Robert Sala came

481
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:18,679
Speaker 4: in and did it for the three years, and then

482
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 4: Demico Ryans was promoted from within to run it that way,

483
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 4: and Steve Wilkes his whole background is mostly with DB's

484
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 4: and so that's where a lot of his energy and

485
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 4: focus went to. And that's not really how they are run.

486
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 4: They run more of like that Seattle cover three. So

487
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 4: then I was thinking, well, what if like Pete Carroll

488
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 4: ends up going there in some capacity.

489
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 2: I had that thought too, And it's kind of like

490
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: a peak.

491
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: You think he's gonna take a step down and go

492
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 3: back to be in a DC. It's seventy two years old.

493
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 5: People are also like his first call to be to

494
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 5: Bill Belichick. I'm like, I mean, that's interesting, why not call?

495
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 2: We talked about it, like with this podcast. No reverse

496
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:58,160
Speaker 2: gears in this deck?

497
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 3: Can Belichick or Carol would they ever go and not

498
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 3: be the leader of their own staff? That seems unlikely,

499
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 3: but it doesn't mean it doesn't make sense.

500
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 6: Carol kind of fits just because I don't know if

501
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 6: he's head coaching again, and any point there's like Mike

502
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 6: Rabel's out there too, but he's too big and too

503
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 6: tall and too strong, apparently to work inside any building.

504
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 3: By the way, it also kind of poked a hole

505
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 3: in what was a plug and play narrative going into

506
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 3: the season that anybody that was DC that would be

507
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 3: a launching pad because Sala demigo and he was also

508
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 3: a victim. Wilkes of the success of those guys as

509
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 3: it turned out, because they were dominant under Ryan's last year,

510
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 3: and this year they weren't bad. They finished third in

511
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 3: points allowed seventeen point five, but they are underlying numbers

512
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 3: that have popped the hood. They are only ninth in

513
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 3: defensive EPA, and they got killed in the playoffs, especially

514
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 3: on the ground, giving up over five yards of carry

515
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 3: and one hundred and forty nine yards in the postseason,

516
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 3: although they shut down Isaiah Pachaco. So you know it's

517
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 3: a tough one. But you gotta trust Shanahan. We'll talk about.

518
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 2: Kyle Ganahan can't fire Shanahan, so he had to fire.

519
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 5: Although they're looking outside like I don't think they have

520
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 5: a they didn't have like a logical replacement that built

521
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 5: from within guy like Brandon Staley's an option.

522
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,240
Speaker 2: They doesn't seem like they know who they're.

523
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 7: Going to they wanted Vic Fangio last year and get him.

524
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 3: Jimmy Garoppolo's NFL career has taken another twist. The former

525
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: forty nine Ers in current Raiders quarterback has been suspended

526
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 3: two games for violating the NFL's performance enhancing substance policy.

527
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 3: It is related to Jimmy G using a prescribed medication

528
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 3: without having a valid therapeutic use exemption from the league.

529
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 3: Jimmy G will not appeal the suspension, so he'll miss

530
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 3: the first two games of the season. Reporting out there

531
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 3: also says that the Raiders are expected to release Garoppolo

532
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 3: before the fifth day of the new league year.

533
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 2: That's next month.

534
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 3: So Jimmy G, who just signed a three year, seventy

535
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 3: two point seventy five million dollar contract that never felt

536
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 3: right even when it happened. I think everybody's like, I

537
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 3: don't know that included nearly thirty four million guaranteed.

538
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if the suspension messes with that at all,

539
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 2: but it does.

540
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 3: But Josh McDaniels was the team's head coach, Dave Ziegler

541
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 3: was the general manager. None of that is the thing anymore.

542
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 3: So that's how Jimmy G ends up back. I don't

543
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 3: know where he is on Greg's free agency one on

544
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 3: one if it gets to that, but it can't be

545
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 3: very high because I feel like he's at a low

546
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 3: value point right now in his career.

547
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, he'd be a good backup one BEE type, see

548
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 5: a good maybe one O one, probably a little higher,

549
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 5: he would be higher. I think it's a good point

550
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 5: because he's not on my list. I kind of forgot

551
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 5: about him because he is still on a roster right now,

552
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 5: but I will, uh well, I don't need to put

553
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 5: him on now because he's not a free agent, but

554
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 5: I do want to be mentally prepared where to put him.

555
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 5: It's pretty rare that you lose eleven million dollars though

556
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 5: off of like a suspension like this, and that's what

557
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 5: PFT reported, that he will lose because of it because

558
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 5: it's no longer guaranteed.

559
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 2: That is pretty brutal.

560
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 6: He has made one hundred fifty million in his career

561
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 6: and has one season where he started every game. I

562
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 6: think that his starting days outside of a disaster are done.

563
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 6: Like you kind of want to go somewhere and kind

564
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 6: of ride it out as a well paid backup. Maybe

565
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 6: the Texans, because he's been in that offensive system, not

566
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 6: having to learn a new system from scratch.

567
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 2: But who can pitch him as a starter at this point.

568
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 2: We've seen it, we've been there, we've done that.

569
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 4: I wonder where the Raiders are going to go now too,

570
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 4: because Antonio Piers said that he doesn't want some like

571
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 4: band aid situation at the quarterback position. They're at thirteen?

572
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 4: Do they end up trading up at some point? They

573
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 4: don't really draft quarterbacks early, they never really have traditionally.

574
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 4: But Antonio Pierce does have a connection to Jayden Daniels

575
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 4: from LSU, the Heisman winner, so they go back.

576
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 7: Pierce recruited him at ASU.

577
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 4: He gave Antonio Pierce a shout out in that acceptance

578
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 4: speech and he was also in the Raiders locker room

579
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 4: after that like win against Denver. So they have that

580
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 4: connection going, so that could maybe be an option for them.

581
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 3: Good nugget, Good nug Speaking of Antonio Pierce, he was

582
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:15,360
Speaker 3: on Max Crosby's The Rush podcast recently and.

583
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 2: He had this to say about Patrick.

584
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 3: Mahomes And you know, of course the Raiders during the

585
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 3: interim run that Pierce had that got him this job

586
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 3: in a full time capacity with the Raiders. They shut

587
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 3: down the Chiefs on Christmas Day. Here's what he said

588
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 3: on the Rush podcast.

589
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 10: Got the Jordan rules, and I'm calling down from now

590
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 10: on as long as I'm here.

591
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 2: The Patrick Mahome rules.

592
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 10: So you remember when Jordan was going through with the Pistons,

593
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,640
Speaker 10: all those guys in the eighties before he came Michael Jordan,

594
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 10: Air Jordan, the Pistons used to whoop it anytime he

595
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 10: came to the whole elbow. So filling them glove taps,

596
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 10: we touched them when they had mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually,

597
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 10: I'm touching you. So I'll show those guys Jordan and

598
00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 10: whoop and.

599
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,199
Speaker 3: He get more of that at his Twitter handle. The

600
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 3: Rush with Max a little different. I'm just saying there's

601
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 3: some Rex Ryan vibes with Antonio Pierce, which could be

602
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 3: good or it could be bad.

603
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 2: I'm very dubious of that.

604
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 3: Higher it feels like one a late season run by

605
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 3: an interim coach that I don't know if it's gonna

606
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 3: be repeatable in the regular season. I like, from a

607
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 3: content standpoint, someone going after Patrick Mahomes is saying we're

608
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 3: gonna We're gonna whip on you, but you're just giving

609
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 3: Mahomes more reason to whip your ass twice next year.

610
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 6: I don't know why you need to verbalize that on

611
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 6: the podcast, But like Dan, you've been on the beat,

612
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 6: the the suspicious Antonio piece, Piers beat from and.

613
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 3: I know Raider fans don't are kind of every time

614
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 3: I mention it like they they're unhappy about it. But

615
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 3: it's okay for someone else to have a different opinion

616
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 3: about this guy. And I just don't know he's a

617
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 3: perfect interim coach. I just don't know if this is

618
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 3: gonna translate want so.

619
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 4: Bad that I'm like so all in on He's He's

620
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 4: always come crashing down on me.

621
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 5: He's in a tough spot being in the division with

622
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 5: Harbaugh and Andy Reid and Sean Payton, but talk like

623
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 5: I do like that. It's why we liked Robert Sala

624
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 5: I think when he first got the Jets job, because

625
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 5: he was good on the mic and said, Cirin, what

626
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 5: happened to that guy? Like right, certain confident things. That's

627
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,959
Speaker 5: why we like Rex Ryan. It's like, I like coaching

628
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 5: the rare coach that actually speaks to it. And they

629
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,239
Speaker 5: did beat Patrick Mahomes's ass I mean they that was

630
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 5: maybe the worst performance by Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas

631
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 5: City Chiefs since he's been there. So like they, I

632
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 5: know what. They didn't win the Super Bowl of it,

633
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 5: but it changed Antonio Pierce's life.

634
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 3: I think it got him like, oh, I have your contract.

635
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 3: I think that was it. I think that was the

636
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 3: win that did it. It was in Arrowhead too, is

637
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 3: yeah all right?

638
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 2: In other news you mentioned Rex Ryan.

639
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 3: This was a good little uh media internal battle over

640
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 3: in Bristol because the Cowboys before they made it official

641
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 3: that they were hiring Mike Zimmer as their new defensive coordinator,

642
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 3: replacing Dan Quinn, who got a head coaching job, Rex

643
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 3: Ryan had interviewed for the job, and when Adam Schefter

644
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 3: reported on I believe it was the NFC or the

645
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 3: title Game Sunday that Zimmer was going to get the job, Ryan,

646
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 3: on live television on ESPN, refuted Adam Schefter's report.

647
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 2: No, no, yeah.

648
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 3: As far as I know, you know, this is is

649
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 3: not as a this is not a done deal like

650
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 3: I'm in I'm in it. Well, sorry, Rex, because the

651
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 3: Cowboys did indeed go with Mike Zimmer, so he takes

652
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 3: over here is Zimmer at his introductory press conference last week.

653
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,160
Speaker 11: We're not trying to reinvent the wheel here. I mean,

654
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 11: they've been pretty good, you know. I know there's been

655
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 11: some situations where things haven't happened, but that happens in coaching,

656
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 11: you know, what happens a lot. So we're gonna look

657
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 11: at the players, try and figure out the best way

658
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 11: to use them, put the scheme together, and again, you know,

659
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 11: we want to take the good things that they've done

660
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 11: and maybe add a few more other things that we've

661
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 11: done good in the past.

662
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 3: I'm happy that zimmers back like a good, cantankerous old coach,

663
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 3: and he's grumpy, and if things go sideways in Dallas,

664
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 3: whenever they give him the mic, he's going to be

665
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 3: there's gonna be some entertainment there.

666
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: Zimmer, the old grump is back.

667
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 6: I think Zaddy had an interesting comment because there's a

668
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 6: lot of them just you know, slapping each other on

669
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 6: the back. But they faced each other a ton, and

670
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 6: he said that, you know, when he'd get together with

671
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers that they both identified Zimmer as in his

672
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 6: defense in general, as the kind of the thorniest thing

673
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 6: they'd run into each season. I mean, that's not how

674
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 6: it ended in Minnesota for Zimmer, where I think one

675
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 6: of the reasons he was flushed out was like this

676
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 6: guy can't get along with younger players. He runs people

677
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 6: the wrong way in the building. But I think the

678
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 6: when you take away all the head coach layer of

679
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 6: junk you gotta do and you can just focus on this,

680
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 6: it's not a it's a you know what you're getting

681
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 6: with Mike Zimmer. And I think, if anything, the Cowboys

682
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 6: can't go into the season on either side of the

683
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 6: ball with a big mystery or question mark.

684
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 4: And Jerry Jones knows exactly what he's getting with Mike

685
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 4: Zimmer because he was with the Cowboys for a long

686
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 4: time as a defensive.

687
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 2: Assistant ten years.

688
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 5: I think of them mostly as a Cowboys guy exactly.

689
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 7: He was there in the nineties when they were just

690
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 7: like a powerhouse. Through Bill Parcells.

691
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 2: Yep, he brings drama.

692
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 5: I mean, even this negotiation to get the job brought

693
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 5: drama because the flip side of what you said to

694
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 5: Rex Ryan was at some point, I think it was

695
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 5: the Monday after the Super Bowl, for like an hour,

696
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,959
Speaker 5: Adam Schefter actually reported this Zimmer job that I had

697
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 5: reported was done is maybe not, you know, as locked

698
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 5: in as we thought, and Rex Ryan is now a

699
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 5: strong candidate. Within an hour, it was Zimmer's job. So

700
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 5: it was basically Jerry Jones and company saying like, all right,

701
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 5: you've messed around long enough. Zimmer wanting more money, We're

702
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 5: not giving you the money, Like, stop this, it has

703
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 5: been a week.

704
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 2: We are going to hire Rex Ryan.

705
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 5: We're going to tell you by putting it through the

706
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,440
Speaker 5: thing like take the job. We want you to take

707
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 5: the job. And then he takes the job.

708
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 3: All right, let's pause right here for a minute and

709
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 3: take a break and then get back to the news.

710
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 3: All right, we're back in other news, the Buccaneers and

711
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 3: Mike Evans. It's looking increasingly possible he's played his last

712
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 3: game in Tampa. It was reported the Bucks had a

713
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 3: soft deadline to get an extension done with Evans. That

714
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 3: told yesterday, and both sides, according to Jordan Schultz of

715
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 3: Bleacher Report, are far apart. So Tampa Bay will take

716
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 3: on over seven million in dead money if they don't

717
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 3: get a deal done, which they didn't. And now I

718
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 3: think because of Greg the situation with his the way

719
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 3: his contract is structured, any type of franchise tag would

720
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 3: be very burdensome to them. So it's very possible he

721
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 3: ends up in your freegency one on one, right.

722
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 2: Yes, which would be fun.

723
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 5: I think the tag for him would be twenty eight

724
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 5: million dollars, which just seems a little wild, even for

725
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 5: a one year contract, which is always nice for the team.

726
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 5: And yet now they they're already paying putting seven million

727
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 5: dollars on the books now, as you mentioned in dead money,

728
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 5: like even if they do resign him, they're gonna have

729
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 5: dead money from not having resigned him by this week,

730
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 5: which it.

731
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 2: Does make it a lot more likely that he's gone.

732
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 5: And I think part of it is they want to

733
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 5: use that franchise tag on Antoine Winfield would be my guest.

734
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 5: Baker Mayfield's also free agent. They have other free agents

735
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 5: and they really might say good but I wouldn't totally

736
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 5: roll it out like that. They just step up and

737
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 5: give them. But it doesn't make financial sense, like why,

738
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 5: you know, why would they have dead money and then

739
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 5: sign them for even more money?

740
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 6: Mark, and the tag doesn't make a ton of sense

741
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 6: because it's like this isn't they won a playoff game

742
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 6: and like that they had a nice season, and it's

743
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 6: like you got a lot of moving parts with Baker

744
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 6: and the rest. But it's like, this isn't a one

745
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 6: year super Bowl window team where you bring them back

746
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 6: and the enough to do this next offseason. Yeah, but

747
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 6: I don't love watching Mike Evan just go out the

748
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 6: door either.

749
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 3: This is great news mark for fans of teams in

750
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 3: the AFC North that are not the Pittsburgh Steelers fans.

751
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 2: Jerry Dulac is a Dullek, Dulach, Dullock, duelik Old. It

752
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 2: could be all of them.

753
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 3: Jarry d of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette had this. He

754
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 3: wrote this recently in his reporting. In fact, there appears

755
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 3: to be some internal division that maybe Mason Rudolph should

756
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 3: be the starter after the way he finished the twenty

757
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 3: twenty three season, winning the final three regular season games

758
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,280
Speaker 3: to gain entry into the playoffs. In any event, Duloch

759
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 3: went on, the Steelers are not interested in bringing in

760
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 3: a quarterback who wants to be a starter. That would

761
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 3: include Justin Fields and Kirk Cousins and probably even Russell Wilson,

762
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 3: who has a connection to the team. They are committed

763
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 3: to giving Kenny pick At a third season to see

764
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 3: if he is the guy to do more than just

765
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 3: win a playoff game, something they haven't done in a

766
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 3: franchise record seven years. So the post Big Ben landscape

767
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 3: and really the end of Ben's career there the quarterback

768
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 3: has been problem for Pittsburgh and I think this is

769
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 3: I mean, if you're a Steelers fan, you're pulling your

770
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 3: hair out because you don't you know Rudolph is who

771
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 3: Rudolph is, and Pikett hasn't shown enough are they actually

772
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 3: is this a smoke screen sess Dog?

773
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 2: Actually, I'm serious about that.

774
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 6: And I think think the environment could change depending on

775
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 6: you know, who becomes available and there are you know,

776
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 6: there was some whispering during Super Bowl week that Ryan

777
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 6: Tannehill was maybe on the radar of the Steelers. But

778
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 6: if this is their plan, I you know, there's such

779
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 6: a shrleott consistent organization always haven't. But then also you

780
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,959
Speaker 6: get stuck in your own thinking here this is about

781
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 6: as uncreative a solution to a quarterback problem.

782
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 2: Quarterback problems get people fired.

783
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,919
Speaker 6: And like Mike, Tomlin's in a better position than most

784
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 6: coaches and most coaching staffs. But you're in a division

785
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 6: with Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson and in theory to Sean Watson,

786
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 6: but also the Browns and Ravens defenses. Right, it's like,

787
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 6: you're gonna You're gonna tell Steelers fans in mid February,

788
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 6: we're going back in with the same two dudes.

789
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:55,280
Speaker 2: A quarterback.

790
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 6: You don't wait till year three or four to find

791
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 6: out if a rookie camp play Conneye. It seems impossible.

792
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you cut your and then Mason Rudolph is

793
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 4: an impending free agent, so you don't have a backup

794
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 4: to Canny Pickett, Like, what what is your plan?

795
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 7: Exactly like that.

796
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 5: That's they assume that they'll want Mason Rudolph more than

797
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 5: any other team, which is a pretty safe assumption for

798
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 5: people in the building to want him to start. They

799
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 5: also are probably looking at Mason Rudolf, not as you

800
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 5: didn't saying we know who he is, Dan looking at him, but.

801
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: It made it a different way than I do. Right.

802
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 5: They they're looking at him as a guy that you know,

803
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 5: didn't play for two or three years, and then when

804
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 5: he did just play at the end of last season,

805
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 5: they saw maybe a they believe they saw a different guy,

806
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 5: and they're going into it. It seems insane and I

807
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 5: don't quite buy it because Arthur Smith has no history

808
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 5: with these guys. He's the offensive coordinator. Like, I like,

809
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 5: it's funny that they used the like the first hours

810
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 5: of the offseason to cut Trubisky. He's just like, it's

811
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 5: almost like mean. And their punter who did have some

812
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 5: pretty bad moments, Pressy Harvient, and they're starting right tackle.

813
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 5: They mistakenly gave a huge contract to just a couple

814
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,919
Speaker 5: of years ago, horror for CHUCKSA. Corriford, and so they've

815
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,439
Speaker 5: cut him too. It's like, I don't know, I don't

816
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 5: buy this. What team doesn't want to bring in a

817
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 5: quarterback that wants to start? It just seems we've seen

818
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 5: Arthur Smith without a quarterback? Doesn't it feel like the

819
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 5: little Steelers e though too. That's the onlyest I believe it.

820
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 3: And let me preface this by saying, there are many

821
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 3: teams who are worse than the Pittsburgh Steelers in the

822
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,879
Speaker 3: NFL right now. Hell, they did make the playoffs this year,

823
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 3: but there is not in my opinion, there is not

824
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 3: a more boring team in football right now, a team

825
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,240
Speaker 3: that I look less forward to watching on game pass

826
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:33,399
Speaker 3: than watching I.

827
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 5: Give you that New England Patriots. I mean, it's February,

828
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,359
Speaker 5: but bad world though.

829
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I understand you have a personal connection to them,

830
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 3: but I'm saying, like when I put it on unless

831
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 3: you you know, you get juiced watching their defense make

832
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 3: plays and TJ. Watt and I get that. But in

833
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 3: terms of offensive football, the Steelers are with especially they

834
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 3: have players, they have players, and sometimes you see it,

835
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 3: but it's such a slock. It always feels like it's

836
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 3: raining and it's just like it's.

837
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 2: Just to watch. There's no number of months though at

838
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: least there's no son.

839
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,439
Speaker 3: You know that old story about the girl that gets

840
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 3: locked in the closet when there's the one sunny day

841
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 3: on Mars.

842
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 2: You know that old fable or whatever that tale was. No,

843
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 2: I'm interested, cousin. I'll look it up. I'll find it. Mars.

844
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm the I'm the little girl locked

845
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 3: in the closet for the one day of sunshine and

846
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 3: every time I get out, it's raining again at the

847
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 3: old Hinz Field and I'm watching a slog of sixteen

848
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 3: to ten game. I'm just sick of it. Steelers fans,

849
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 3: you hear me. You might even know what I'm talking

850
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 3: about about the girl that never got to see the sun.

851
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 4: Connie, you search, No, No, I'm just right that Dan

852
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 4: is the little girl locked in the.

853
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 3: Kind of feel like it might have been a Mars. Yeah,

854
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 3: I don't know. Let me look into it. Go ahead,

855
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 3: let me tee you up on another item, and then

856
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,760
Speaker 3: we're going to get out of the way. Russell Wilson

857
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 3: is selling his stint for home Mark after a disastrous

858
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,319
Speaker 3: two year run with the Broncos that appears at an end,

859
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 3: and also the player he once traded for, Gino Smith.

860
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 3: The Seahawks go ahead and guaranteed his base salary this year,

861
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 3: paving the way for another season.

862
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 2: There, go ahead with a.

863
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,399
Speaker 6: Home was worth about twenty five million. Let's start right there,

864
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 6: then let's end right there.

865
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 5: It's rich, the most expensive property ever sold in the

866
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:20,959
Speaker 5: Denver area.

867
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 2: Just two years ago.

868
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,439
Speaker 7: So oh my gosh, Well, I'm not so he's gotta

869
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 7: sell it.

870
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 2: You're not.

871
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 6: I get that, you're not gonna you know Airbnb that

872
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 6: that sounds difficult.

873
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:31,720
Speaker 2: So you get out of ten, you're gone.

874
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 6: And I do think the one reason I thought about

875
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 6: putting this into our storylines it's more from the Broncos side,

876
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,760
Speaker 6: because like they're gonna need obviously a lot at quarterback,

877
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 6: something to keep Sean Payton happy. There's ways that go

878
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 6: go depending where they are on the draft. But the

879
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 6: financials saddled to Wilson are insane.

880
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 2: I mean they're like you.

881
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 6: Can get any I feel like any team get out

882
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 6: of these things, but they will essentially have them eighty

883
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 6: five million in dead money.

884
00:39:56,440 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 5: There's a pretty strong case that it's the worst in

885
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 5: NFL history that it's and it's right there with Herschawalker

886
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 5: and all these other and the GMC for what they got,

887
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 5: what they gave up, the money that you're saying is

888
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,800
Speaker 5: now even hurting them into this year, and you got

889
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 5: like one disastrous season in one season where he was

890
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 5: like the nineteenth best quarterback in the league.

891
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 2: Out of all that.

892
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 5: It's crazy and I don't I don't see the home

893
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 5: for him because Pittsburgh, like Chadow Chowsinko's on his podcast

894
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 5: saying he's been here in all week that Russell Wilson

895
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 5: and Steelers, that's a match that wouldn't match up with

896
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 5: the report we just talked about though, And that report

897
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 5: from do like almost felt like a response to all

898
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 5: this Russell Wilson stuff because it was going around quite

899
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 5: a bit in Vegas. He's like, the Steelers are the

900
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 5: favorite for his next destination. I don't think that means anything,

901
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 5: and I don't know if there's a starting job for

902
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 5: Russ out there.

903
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 3: And finally in the news, the tag window has opened.

904
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 2: Greg. What do you got anybody a little tag talk?

905
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 5: You want to do a tech I want to do

906
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 5: a little tag talk?

907
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 2: Yeah talk? Did you not think by the way it

908
00:40:59,480 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 2: was interested?

909
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,799
Speaker 5: I did what I mentioned, just that they guaranteed him

910
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 5: the base salary, which was pretty low. But almost immediately

911
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 5: the shifters of the world put out that the Seahawks thought, look,

912
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 5: he's he has a low price and that whether we

913
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 5: keep him or trade him, we want to he's a

914
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 5: good at like he's basically an asset. And I was like, oh, well,

915
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 5: that that would indicate to me they're thinking about possibly

916
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,280
Speaker 5: trading him. How the off season goes, Yeah.

917
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 6: They're a new offensive coordinator, was the Washington Huskies head

918
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 6: coach Ryan Grubb. And if you think that maybe they

919
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 6: could keep Gino because it's I think this is the

920
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 6: opposite of the Russell Wilson words like he's an affordable

921
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 6: quarterback at that price. But Grub was like the guy

922
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 6: who was attached to Michael Pennox Junior, who is like

923
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,239
Speaker 6: a rising name at quarterback, and maybe Gino works as

924
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 6: a keep him around, yeah for one season and let

925
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 6: Penix Junior be your dude or fill in the blank rookie.

926
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 5: It just struck me as a when when I saw

927
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 5: that from the shifters of the world, it's just like

928
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 5: they're not sure yet. They're gonna see, like what's maybe

929
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 5: shakes out, see how they feel in a month or two,

930
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 5: but they would be they'll be happy enough if they

931
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 5: have Geno, like that's a good option, but they might

932
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 5: be looking at it, or maybe they'll do something with Pennix.

933
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 2: Like that's fine.

934
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 4: But I'm still stuck on the fact that Russell Wilson

935
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,840
Speaker 4: has fewer wins in Denver than he had bathrooms in

936
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 4: his house.

937
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 5: That he's a yeah, that's statistics, that's up there. He's

938
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 5: never got to pass it.

939
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 3: That's a good like rich people mansion story that's up

940
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 3: there with when mc hammer went bankrupt and like, did

941
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 3: you know he had gold plated law sits in his bathroom.

942
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, probably shouldn't have done that.

943
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes and the Andy Reid also have more wins

944
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,359
Speaker 5: in Allegiance Stadium than any Raiders coach quarterback Combo. That's

945
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 5: a fun one, all of it together. Wow, Touffy, that's

946
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:40,879
Speaker 5: a take.

947
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: Okay.

948
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 5: So the tag it's open. It's a big, big tag day.

949
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:45,240
Speaker 5: February twentieth.

950
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,479
Speaker 2: Everyone. I don't know how you're celebrating. You can.

951
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 5: You can apply the tag. You got a couple of

952
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 5: weeks to do so made a quick list. I think

953
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 5: Antoine Winfield, I think he gets it over Baker, over Evans.

954
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 2: Yeah.

955
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 5: T Higgins almost certainly is gonna get it after that,

956
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,479
Speaker 5: a little fewer less less locks than normal. Josh Allen,

957
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,360
Speaker 5: I would say with the Jaguars W T.

958
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 3: Higgins, I thought it was kind of a foregone conclusion

959
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 3: he was going to reach free agency.

960
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,239
Speaker 2: Did something change there?

961
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,319
Speaker 6: I think they're going to let Tyler Boyd go do that,

962
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,879
Speaker 6: But then you could lose two guys and you got

963
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 6: to pay Chase too.

964
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 5: Because it's the Bengals, they keep things in house in

965
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 5: terms of sourcing and reporters better than just about any team.

966
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 5: No one really knows. I just think it'd be kind

967
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 5: of crazy to let te Higgins go to that.

968
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 2: I agree with you.

969
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 3: I to figure everyone's been already like putting him atop

970
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,240
Speaker 3: the free agency board.

971
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, and now I think Burrow.

972
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 4: Came out like basically said that he needs him back.

973
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 7: We have the cap space.

974
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 5: Right well, see today have a lot of that should

975
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 5: not be in the lock. I used to do it

976
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 5: as a column, as a lock. It's close to it.

977
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 5: But Josh Allen, I think is the lock. Brian Burns

978
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:50,360
Speaker 5: is probable. Justin Mattabike for the Ravens, good chance, Christian

979
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 5: Wilkins for the Dolphins, good chance. So these again all

980
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,319
Speaker 5: all the best possible free agents. Jalen Johnson, I think

981
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 5: the cornerback for the Bears decent chance. Lagarious Steed and

982
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,080
Speaker 5: Chris Jones is a huge Chiefs conversation where they Chris

983
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 5: Jones would do thirty two million on the I think

984
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 5: would be his tag number.

985
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,879
Speaker 2: Sesson. That's it. That's why insane or.

986
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 5: Lagarious Sneid, who I think is going to become, if

987
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,279
Speaker 5: not the highest paid cornerback in the league, close to it.

988
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 5: That's trick trick always.

989
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 4: I was thinking about that right after the Super Bowl

990
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 4: because I ran into Spags on the field and he was, hey,

991
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 4: did he was crying, like and when I asked him

992
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:29,839
Speaker 4: about like just you know the win, obviously, he immediately

993
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 4: went to this is never this is this group is

994
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 4: never going to be together again, and we're never going

995
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 4: to have these players experience this. And it was more

996
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 4: like from a place of sadness than it was celebratory tears.

997
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 7: And that really hit me. And in that moment, I

998
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 7: was like, Chris Jones, Chris Jones.

999
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 5: And would they really just like let him walk? To me,

1000
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 5: the best way to do this probably would be to

1001
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 5: tag Snead and get that deal done with Jones before

1002
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 5: free agency.

1003
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 2: Somehow he's going to cost the chill. This was money, like.

1004
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,760
Speaker 6: At the at the celebration, and we'll get like Jones

1005
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 6: like verbalized that he wanted to be there for like

1006
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 6: multiple more years, and he certainly had had a few beers,

1007
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 6: but I think that's that leads to more truth truth,

1008
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:10,720
Speaker 6: and that time.

1009
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 2: A few beers.

1010
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 6: They were though also like we're gonna if they're gonna

1011
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 6: pay him, and they and let's say it's a little

1012
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 6: bit less and he goes to some hideous team that

1013
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 6: has a ton of caprom like the Commanders or something

1014
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 6: like why not win.

1015
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:26,720
Speaker 2: Multiple super Bowls for just a little bit less money?

1016
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think that's what Mahomes did with his

1017
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:31,839
Speaker 5: contract bar or less.

1018
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: I love that not all about the green Backs. He's

1019
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 2: he's already making so much money he wants to have.

1020
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 6: I think the saddest thing is like when he wants

1021
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 6: super bowls and then goes to a terrible team and

1022
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,440
Speaker 6: it's just like the one guy on a terrible team.

1023
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 5: He needs like the three year guaranteed money.

1024
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 2: But he should get that.

1025
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 6: If you're bored by the steel I don't want to

1026
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 6: see him on the Panthers or like no, no, no, Like

1027
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 6: that's what I'm saying.

1028
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, life is it's just not about all green Backs. Yeah,

1029
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 2: it's not.

1030
00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 6: I mean, for I'd say for the ninety percent of

1031
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 6: doing the show, we knew it was not all about Greenbacks,

1032
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 6: and you know gets closer to that all the time.

1033
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 5: And Barkley, by the way, to a couple of other

1034
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 5: big news is less like Barkley, Derrick, Henry Tyrant Smith.

1035
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,839
Speaker 5: I think they're all unlikely. No, no, put it in

1036
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:18,400
Speaker 5: Kirk Cousins and Daniel Hunter who you might look at like, oh,

1037
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 5: why they on the free agent's list. Both of them

1038
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 5: cannot be tagged because of their they have that in

1039
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,720
Speaker 5: their contract, so the Vikings will not be using their tags.

1040
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 2: Well done on those Good job by the agent.

1041
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 3: Patrick Queen though also in Baltimore, like he's you think

1042
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 3: they're I.

1043
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 2: Just don't think.

1044
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 3: I think that's I just see him listed at Yes, I.

1045
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 5: Personally don't think they would put that much money on

1046
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 5: another inside linebacker when they have Roquin Smith. But maybe

1047
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 5: they would surprise me, especially when you have a mattabk

1048
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 5: as an option.

1049
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 2: All right, we're caught up. That's what's happening in the news.

1050
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 2: Here we go. Are you ready? All?

1051
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 3: Summer in a Day is a science fiction short story

1052
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 3: by American writer Ray Bradbury, first published famous March nineteen

1053
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 3: fifty four. The story is about a class of students

1054
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:06,640
Speaker 3: on Venus right Tron pew Markie, which is in the

1055
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,800
Speaker 3: story a world of constant rainstorms where the sun is

1056
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 3: only visible for one hour every seven years. One of

1057
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 3: the children, Margo, moved to Venus from Earth five years

1058
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,919
Speaker 3: ago five years earlier, and is the only one who

1059
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,880
Speaker 3: remembers the sun since it shines regularly on earth, she

1060
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 3: describes to the sun. She describes the sun to the

1061
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 3: other children as being like a penny or a fire

1062
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 3: in the stove. The other children, being too young to

1063
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 3: have ever seen it themselves, do not believe her. Just

1064
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 3: before the sun comes out, a boy named William rallies

1065
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 3: the other children and they lock Margo in a closet

1066
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,720
Speaker 3: down a tunnel. The teacher arrives to take the class

1067
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 3: outside to enjoy their hour of sunshine. In their astonishment

1068
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 3: and joy, they all forget about Margo and gleefully rush

1069
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,360
Speaker 3: to play outside, savoring every second of their newfound freedom.

1070
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 2: It begins to rain again, and the.

1071
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 3: Children start crying once they realize they won't get to

1072
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 3: see the sun again for another seven years. The children

1073
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,320
Speaker 3: run back inside as the sun disappears and it starts storming.

1074
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 2: At this point, one of them remembers Margo. They let

1075
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 2: her out of.

1076
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 3: The closet and stand frozen a shame over what they

1077
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 3: have done. Now that they will find and that they

1078
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 3: finally understand what she had been missing.

1079
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 2: That's what it's like watching the Pittsburgh Steelers.

1080
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 6: I know, I mean, it's an incredible vision that you've

1081
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:29,719
Speaker 6: created for us, I think like Raymond Bradbury, U right,

1082
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 6: obviously testing the limits of various substances and was on

1083
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,799
Speaker 6: the child gang beat well before other people. And I've

1084
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,359
Speaker 6: you know, I've been on that beat myself that these

1085
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 6: child gangs are a problem.

1086
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:41,799
Speaker 2: For about fifteen.

1087
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 5: Seconds there, I thought that was like a live ad read.

1088
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 7: Dan Is Margot of.

1089
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 3: Like for audible, I don't know what it would be

1090
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:51,800
Speaker 3: for Let the American viewing public out of that closet

1091
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 3: of Pittsburgh Steelers at least let us see the sunshine. Yeah, okay, okay,

1092
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 3: that's uh yeah, that's it.

1093
00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 2: We'll be right back.

1094
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 3: And when we return, the biggest storylines of the off

1095
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 3: season at first and Golden Mahomes, Wings, hist Hartman, jack.

1096
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 12: Pot, Kansas City, and this was the Andy Reid special.

1097
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,840
Speaker 2: This was the Andy Reid special we talked about. He

1098
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 2: was saving all day.

1099
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:25,400
Speaker 12: He's gonna fake emotion to go across and at that

1100
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 12: moment he turns and goes back Hartman.

1101
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 2: Who they didn't have, right and they go get.

1102
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 12: Hardened and bring him back and the game winning drive

1103
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:35,240
Speaker 12: of Mahoon's career.

1104
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,480
Speaker 2: He's been waiting for his winser goals, but he's never

1105
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 2: had it, and in overtime he is the best. He

1106
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 2: is the standard where Michael Jordan wins it again.

1107
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 3: There it is the call of the touchdown to me

1108
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 3: Cole Hartman from Patrick Mahones in overtime. You know that

1109
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,320
Speaker 3: was I thought about it on the flight home from Vegas.

1110
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 3: The first time in NFL history. Now second overtime game,

1111
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 3: but that obviously Falcons. Oh my god, Kyle, Yeah, was

1112
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 3: the overtime both of those. That's crazy. That's a tie game.

1113
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 3: Obviously when you're running back. Was it James White goes

1114
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 3: in the end zone?

1115
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:16,799
Speaker 2: Uh?

1116
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:18,919
Speaker 3: That That was the first time in NFL history where

1117
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,600
Speaker 3: the Super Bowls decided one team's winning when the play

1118
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 3: starts and the other team wins when it's over. That

1119
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 3: is crushing to the very last play, and I still

1120
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:32,880
Speaker 3: can never I'll always remember sitting at that great spot

1121
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 3: we had that perch where our studio set up, was

1122
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,359
Speaker 3: all of those Niners fans right below us, like they

1123
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 3: in the Even though it was creeping death, there still

1124
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 3: was a chance if there's a Malcolm Butler type play.

1125
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 2: Or something could happen. Hopeful that a man the well.

1126
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 3: Right in front of us. There was a lot of anxiety,

1127
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 3: which is understandable. The center for the Chiefs all game

1128
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:57,440
Speaker 3: was bad snaps over and over and over again, their

1129
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 3: former first round pick holding up hope, but hope was

1130
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:03,760
Speaker 3: not going to be rewarded.

1131
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 5: That feeling of them coming down the field, to quote

1132
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:10,959
Speaker 5: Dave Damage, like that's living.

1133
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:12,720
Speaker 2: To me, Like, there's a lot of that's living.

1134
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 5: Most of it's in your life with people that matter

1135
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 5: to you, that you love, doing things and stuff.

1136
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 2: But they're to me, that's why.

1137
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 7: I love sports, feeling emotions.

1138
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,240
Speaker 5: No, I'm saying in a in a in a moment

1139
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 5: like that where you've built the entire season too, just

1140
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 5: like it's all gonna happen in these next couple of moments. There,

1141
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:37,839
Speaker 5: to me is a heightened sense of life, of reality

1142
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,800
Speaker 5: where everything you're your not you notice more in those spots.

1143
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,439
Speaker 5: You see a little more in those spots. And it's

1144
00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 5: one of the reasons why this job is so great too.

1145
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 3: M the guy, the guy that I'll always think of,

1146
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 3: was directly below me. And when Moody hits the field

1147
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 3: goal to put them in head and overtime, he is

1148
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 3: seated with his head down. He can't even watch, and

1149
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 3: I think his wife and his buddy like past him

1150
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:01,920
Speaker 3: on the back and he made it. He made it,

1151
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:04,960
Speaker 3: so you can imagine where he was minutes later. So

1152
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:06,879
Speaker 3: it's a great sports man.

1153
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 6: I also have this memory of cause, you know, unlike

1154
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:11,759
Speaker 6: other Super Bowls, we were on the East Coast and

1155
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,360
Speaker 6: you come back to like the hotel and there's like

1156
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 6: eight people awake because we were there to like two

1157
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,800
Speaker 6: in the morning. Like you go back to our hotel

1158
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,840
Speaker 6: in Vegas and it's like, we haven't even begun this evening,

1159
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 6: Like what's everyone's doing. But there were hordes of like

1160
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:26,880
Speaker 6: Niners fans obviously in our hotel, and I just thought, like,

1161
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 6: how low are you feeling where you're like in this

1162
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:33,000
Speaker 6: haze postgame where you're wandering around with like your pals

1163
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:36,440
Speaker 6: all in like use check and McCaffrey jerseys, and you

1164
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,239
Speaker 6: just lost another Super Bowl. It just like I think,

1165
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 6: it just feels so hopeless for the losing team, even

1166
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 6: though I see I looked at the like the DraftKings

1167
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,879
Speaker 6: odds and like the Niners were the number one team

1168
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:48,759
Speaker 6: to go back, and I'm thinking, like I will never

1169
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 6: not pick the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl. In

1170
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:52,719
Speaker 6: the next couple of years. I'm not falling down this

1171
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 6: trap door ever again.

1172
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:54,279
Speaker 2: Dame.

1173
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 4: We where we were, our green room in the stadium

1174
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 4: shared a wall with the Chiefs locker room, so for

1175
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 4: two hours after the game, we could just hear everything

1176
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,360
Speaker 4: that was happening. And so everyone that like works on

1177
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:13,960
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl, the whole crew just stays and drinks

1178
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 4: afterwards and like hangs out on the field. But it

1179
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:19,000
Speaker 4: was so interesting to like sort of all like huddle

1180
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 4: around with our like little like red solo cups trying

1181
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 4: to listen to the chief speech through the concrete wall.

1182
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 2: Very cool, That's amazing. Like that game.

1183
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 5: I had this theory like the way that game, and

1184
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 5: it really was a great game in terms of strategy

1185
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,400
Speaker 5: and and everything that went on in the last like

1186
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 5: quarter and you know, over time and a half essentially.

1187
00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:39,759
Speaker 5: But it reminded me of a great tennis match when

1188
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 5: in a previous life when I used to, you know,

1189
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 5: get into these sorts of things. No sport has the

1190
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 5: odds flip as quickly as a great tennis match, because

1191
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 5: you get to the championship, you have a match point, right,

1192
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 5: you might lose that point, lose that game, and then

1193
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 5: it's right back to tie.

1194
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 2: Terrible win probability charges off.

1195
00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 5: It goes like from like all you need is one

1196
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,920
Speaker 5: more part like minus eight hundred to win, and then

1197
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 5: two seconds later you're an underdog. And that's what the

1198
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,280
Speaker 5: Super Bowl felt by because there were a couple match points.

1199
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,240
Speaker 5: The forty nine ers coming out of that two minute warning.

1200
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 5: All they needed was a first down that was essentially

1201
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,439
Speaker 5: a match point. You only needed four yards the whole

1202
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,920
Speaker 5: last Mahomes drive. You could look at it like the

1203
00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 5: defense just had to make one play and there was

1204
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,879
Speaker 5: you know, and then the whole thing would be over.

1205
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 5: There was a second eighteen, there was a third and

1206
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 5: long and so there was all just like the whole

1207
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 5: thing could have ended on one point.

1208
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 6: But the quarter into overtime was some of the best

1209
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 6: Super Bowl Oh my god drama that we've ever been

1210
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 6: in person yet and I really agree with you at

1211
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 6: the end, you could just feel like this building a

1212
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 6: tension in the building, like rising.

1213
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 3: A few other Super Bowl takeaways before we look at

1214
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:47,480
Speaker 3: to the offseason. First of all, shout out Colleen Woolf,

1215
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 3: who was the in stadium.

1216
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 2: Host of the freaking Game.

1217
00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 3: We mentioned it on Super Bowl Sunday, but Connie All

1218
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 3: throughout the pregame, including her thunderbird birds going up in

1219
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 3: the the get watch that with astonishment in the stadium,

1220
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:05,640
Speaker 3: including the iconic shot of you in the suit with

1221
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 3: the giant American flag.

1222
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 2: In front of you looking back.

1223
00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 5: You missed it live, but I was glad you put.

1224
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:13,399
Speaker 3: We did a great job explaining it on Radio Row,

1225
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 3: but actually seeing it was I was blown away. And

1226
00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 3: then you did an awesome job all throughout the game

1227
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 3: that then went into overtime.

1228
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,000
Speaker 2: Did you get paid extra when it goes into overtime? No?

1229
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:25,839
Speaker 3: So people know, like when when you're in commercial break

1230
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 3: watching the game, Colleen is with a co host, who

1231
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:29,200
Speaker 3: is it?

1232
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 2: Uh?

1233
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 7: There was a few.

1234
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:31,759
Speaker 2: There was a few.

1235
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 7: I play Mike, Rob Steve was there Smith.

1236
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 3: Basically talking things, talking through the crowds to seventy thousand people,

1237
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:39,960
Speaker 3: like what's going on, sharing different thoughts.

1238
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 2: It was very cool and.

1239
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 6: I think also one cool thing because like we it's

1240
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 6: it's commonplace for us to watch you just go star

1241
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:48,799
Speaker 6: like this, but we were lucky enough to bring like

1242
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 6: guests and like we're like, oh, that's our friend, like

1243
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,359
Speaker 6: down on the field, Yeah, like announcing to the entire

1244
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,959
Speaker 6: stadium and flying around and jet to like, that's your friend.

1245
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:57,319
Speaker 2: It makes it feel like a home game.

1246
00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 5: You and Cynthia also had a couple of segments where

1247
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 5: voicing stuff in the pregame and I'm just like, wow,

1248
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:06,719
Speaker 5: our friends are just like voicing the freaking super Bowl.

1249
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,239
Speaker 3: I think you put it well on the on the

1250
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 3: super Bowl wrap up show, Greg, it feels like our

1251
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 3: world has gotten a little smaller for a game that big,

1252
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 3: which is Oh.

1253
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 2: That was actually Greg, I do.

1254
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 3: I was gonna give it to you if you needed

1255
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,719
Speaker 3: it after the ticket fiasco on your desk.

1256
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:21,359
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1257
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,839
Speaker 3: My kind of takeaway after it because again, we were

1258
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,399
Speaker 3: watching the game in person. Our vantage point isn't always great.

1259
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,840
Speaker 3: We don't have access to replays. And then we go

1260
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,239
Speaker 3: when we do an hour and a half on the

1261
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:34,719
Speaker 3: right after the game talking about it. So getting to

1262
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 3: read and watch things I thought what it was a

1263
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 3: boondoggle for Kyle. I thought Shanahan and and things that

1264
00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:47,960
Speaker 3: I've watched about his strategy, Uh one one I watched

1265
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:50,440
Speaker 3: like a real deep dive, a cutup of like mistakes

1266
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:55,040
Speaker 3: that he made in strategy, his failure to protect adequately

1267
00:56:55,200 --> 00:57:00,880
Speaker 3: call up protect schemes for party typified by the final

1268
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,479
Speaker 3: possession they had in overtime before the field goal where

1269
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 3: they call a fake kind of end around to CMC

1270
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 3: that involves to sell The fake to CMC involves the

1271
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:16,200
Speaker 3: center pulling away from Chris Jones and then leaving the

1272
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 3: middle of the San Francisco offensive line, which was their

1273
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:22,840
Speaker 3: weakness throughout the game, and the way they ran the

1274
00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 3: football the way Spag. They kind of played right into

1275
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,440
Speaker 3: Spags's hands throughout the game where Spags kind of schooled

1276
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan where they're running McCaffrey over and over into

1277
00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:37,000
Speaker 3: this area occupied by their guards, which is their weak point,

1278
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 3: and Chris Jones the most dominant defensive lineman on the planet.

1279
00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 3: And then right down to, of course, the overtime situation,

1280
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:49,720
Speaker 3: which we talked about a little bit on Super Bowl Sunday,

1281
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,240
Speaker 3: but the team San Francisco clearly not maybe having a

1282
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:57,440
Speaker 3: handle on the overtime rules and the obviously the decision

1283
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:01,120
Speaker 3: not to give the ball the Chiefs after they win

1284
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 3: the coin toss and OT and so. On the New

1285
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 3: Heights podcast, Travis Kelcey and his brother Jason, they get

1286
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,840
Speaker 3: into how overtime played out and the setup and how

1287
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,680
Speaker 3: prepared the Chiefs were for it, like the Patriots famously

1288
00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 3: had Ernie Adams their guy that was behind the scenes

1289
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,080
Speaker 3: that had that team always kind of one step ahead,

1290
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,560
Speaker 3: and especially in these type of crucible games. Well, the

1291
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 3: Chiefs have someone, a guy named Mike Fraser who is

1292
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 3: their statistical analysis coordinator, and Travis Kelcey made a point

1293
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:34,200
Speaker 3: on his podcast to give him credit for having them

1294
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 3: prepared in a way it seemed like the forty nine

1295
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 3: ers were not.

1296
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,040
Speaker 1: He's the one that goes over all these scenarios, all

1297
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 1: these big time situations yep and a half and a

1298
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:47,400
Speaker 1: game rule changes. He's the one that comes up stands

1299
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 1: in front of the team, when he comes in front

1300
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 1: of the TV or everybody get fired fur then sure enough,

1301
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:55,000
Speaker 1: he goes over these kinds of situations. I'm pretty sure

1302
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:58,400
Speaker 1: we went over the overtime rules three times four times

1303
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 1: in the two week span that we were in like

1304
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 1: the play it like in the actually the overtime rules.

1305
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 1: The every single week we talked about overtime rules in

1306
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,959
Speaker 1: the playoffs, and phrase was upfront giving what we would

1307
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:15,000
Speaker 1: do in all these scenarios. So everybody on the team,

1308
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 1: on our like, we knew exactly what the best situation

1309
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:19,960
Speaker 1: was how we were going to handle it, how we

1310
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:23,720
Speaker 1: were gonna like attack it. And a guy like that, Man,

1311
00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: you don't realize how big of a big of a

1312
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 1: you know, job it is to do that kind of stuff,

1313
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:30,920
Speaker 1: because it's kind of like, all right, you're just going

1314
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 1: over the rules. We kind of know the rules, but

1315
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 1: it's like when you harp on them, it becomes second

1316
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,280
Speaker 1: nature and you don't even think about it in the

1317
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 1: in the game and it's just, you know, phrase coming up,

1318
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 1: big man, they gotta they gotta get a phrase over there.

1319
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:46,560
Speaker 3: And in San France, I mean, hold on though, somethansee

1320
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:50,240
Speaker 3: phrase can walk away knowing that Travis Kelcey obviously was

1321
00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 3: listening to phrage.

1322
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:53,400
Speaker 6: But then you've got the narrative that Mikol Harmon didn't

1323
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:55,520
Speaker 6: even know that the game was over, so someone's not

1324
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 6: paying attention.

1325
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:57,919
Speaker 2: No, you can only do so much.

1326
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 6: Well me cole Harmon that it didn't stick into me.

1327
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:03,960
Speaker 5: I think he was just yeah, I don't know if

1328
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:05,680
Speaker 5: he didn't know the rules as much as like he

1329
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 5: was just in the moment.

1330
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 4: Also, like how catches had he even made to that

1331
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 4: point when he was with all season long before that.

1332
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 5: I think he was just like focused on, Like, I'm.

1333
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,840
Speaker 6: But do you think the Niners don't have a guy

1334
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 6: like that that would about?

1335
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 2: No, I don't, but it was enough reporting around the

1336
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:23,439
Speaker 2: game afterwards that they don't.

1337
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:25,480
Speaker 5: I don't think Kyle Shanahan had a good feel of

1338
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:29,080
Speaker 5: it either. He came back the next day and then said, well, actually,

1339
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:30,760
Speaker 5: our plan was we wanted to get the ball third,

1340
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 5: Like if we matched, then we wanted to get the

1341
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 5: ball third. And I was like, I don't believe you.

1342
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 5: You've lied a lot in public situations. You lied about

1343
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 5: that Steve. You were going to keep Steve Wilkes the

1344
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 5: day before you got rid of and I understand why

1345
01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 5: you have to do that. But the day before when

1346
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 5: he got asked the same question, he didn't have that answer.

1347
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,720
Speaker 5: He just said, come on, we wanted the ball, he.

1348
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:52,680
Speaker 3: Said, pulled on himself again when he said that, because

1349
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 3: I think Kelsey or some I think Kelsey also said

1350
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 3: the Chiefs plan written in stone is that if the

1351
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 3: other team scores a touchdown, we get the ball back.

1352
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 3: We go for two if we score a touchdown, right, So,

1353
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 3: no matter what, there wasn't a third possession coming for

1354
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 3: the Niners. And he wasn't prepared for that as a

1355
01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:12,600
Speaker 3: possibility either. And I guess the one other thing I'm

1356
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 3: gonna say is that I watched another cutup of their

1357
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 3: game plan we talked about Deebo Samuel was targeted eleven

1358
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:24,480
Speaker 3: times three catches. He is not good as good in

1359
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 3: man coverage. He eats up zone coverage, their man coverage destroyers.

1360
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,680
Speaker 3: Brandon Ayuk, who just throughout the playoffs, really was not

1361
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 3: getting targeted the way he should. And they showed all

1362
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,400
Speaker 3: these moments in the game whereas you're targeting Ayuk, he's

1363
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:40,080
Speaker 3: probably shaken free with his route running ability in a

1364
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 3: way that Debo doesn't because he has a different skill set.

1365
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,720
Speaker 3: So I'm just all these things like it's just like you,

1366
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 3: Kyle doesn't get a pass, And I'm not going to

1367
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 3: bury party at all. I don't think he played a

1368
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 3: great game, but didn't play poorly. Shanahan, I think got

1369
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:55,640
Speaker 3: out coached in a huge stage. And when we talk

1370
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:57,480
Speaker 3: about him quote unquote not being able to get over

1371
01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 3: the hump and choking like this is more like digging

1372
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,120
Speaker 3: into it a little further, is how is he getting

1373
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 3: beaten these giant games?

1374
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:05,040
Speaker 2: Well, you got out coached in that place.

1375
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:09,680
Speaker 6: It's when we go in critique, like Bengals teams under

1376
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 6: Zach Taylor of old were like they couldn't adjust the

1377
01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:15,160
Speaker 6: offensive line in game and Burrow's getting killed. It's like

1378
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:19,480
Speaker 6: Brock Perdy, like, actually, we didn't blame him after the show,

1379
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 6: and we shouldn't. Like he faced a ton of like

1380
01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,560
Speaker 6: just pressure where no one was unblocked, like pass rushers

1381
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:26,640
Speaker 6: coming right, there were nine.

1382
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,880
Speaker 3: He had a game, Chris Jones, Johnny Rush so that

1383
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,480
Speaker 3: on that third down that right.

1384
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:34,920
Speaker 5: It's funny though, how Super Bowl sometimes get decided a

1385
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 5: little bit. John Feliciano, he's not like a great player,

1386
01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:39,800
Speaker 5: got hurt in the first half of that game. He

1387
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 5: was replaced by Spencer Burford, who after the game had

1388
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:46,880
Speaker 5: to own up on Monday to being the guy who

1389
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 5: blew that protection only because his own teammate Feliciano, who

1390
01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 5: had gotten hurt, came to the right Tackles defense on

1391
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,360
Speaker 5: Twitter saying like, that's not Colton mckivitz's fault. Stop blaming him.

1392
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 5: And everyone's like, oh wait, you're blaming the other guy.

1393
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 5: And so they had to like talk it out and stuff,

1394
01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:06,840
Speaker 5: and this is this is what happens when you lose

1395
01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:08,280
Speaker 5: Super Bowls, it's a lot of blame.

1396
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,920
Speaker 4: I just like McCall harbon is just stuck in my

1397
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,480
Speaker 4: head because it happened in the end zone that was

1398
01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 4: like right in front of us where we were standing.

1399
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 4: And then Rick Berkholder, their head trainer the Chiefs, like

1400
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 4: ran over to me on the field because I used

1401
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 4: to work with him when I was in Philly, and

1402
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:29,400
Speaker 4: he's like grabbed me and was like, oh my god,

1403
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:31,960
Speaker 4: Michael Hardman, look up how many catches he had in

1404
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:32,440
Speaker 4: this game.

1405
01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:34,280
Speaker 7: It was only like two or three and that was

1406
01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:35,280
Speaker 7: the one that won it for us.

1407
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:36,960
Speaker 4: And then just like ran off like it was like

1408
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,040
Speaker 4: a fever dream of sorts.

1409
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 2: He didn't say like, how have you, how are you doing?

1410
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:42,080
Speaker 2: How things been for you?

1411
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 7: He was like, go talk to go find.

1412
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 3: Him anything else game wise, pigways, And we should mention.

1413
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 2: So we haven't mentioned yet.

1414
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 3: There's the parade that happened in Kansas City after the

1415
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 3: Super Bowl was marred by an active senseless violence, a

1416
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:02,520
Speaker 3: shooting where over twenty people were shot. A person was killed.

1417
01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 3: All the other people who were injured have been released

1418
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:08,080
Speaker 3: from the hospital, which is great news. And you know,

1419
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:09,919
Speaker 3: I don't have to say much of this. I don't

1420
01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 3: know what you guys say other than this stuff sucks,

1421
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:15,560
Speaker 3: but it doesn't surprise me anymore in this country. And

1422
01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 3: it's sad gun violence and these type of mass shootings

1423
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 3: continue to happen. But once, I guess I do want

1424
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 3: to say something that what happened in Sandy Hook Elementary

1425
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 3: School in twenty twelve when a room full of first

1426
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:34,240
Speaker 3: graders were murdered with an AR fifteen and our political

1427
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 3: system couldn't get on the same page to do anything

1428
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:40,000
Speaker 3: about that, And we've had hundreds and hundreds of people

1429
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:44,320
Speaker 3: murdered since and these type of acts. I just have

1430
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:47,480
Speaker 3: no faith in our country and our system to stop

1431
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:48,400
Speaker 3: these things from happening.

1432
01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:49,200
Speaker 2: And it just sucks.

1433
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:54,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, like half the wounded we're under age sixteen. I

1434
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 6: mean that stands out because I think this is meant

1435
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:58,040
Speaker 6: to be in you know, Kansas City's had a bunch

1436
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:02,160
Speaker 6: of these, but it's still special event for your fan base,

1437
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:04,120
Speaker 6: many who can't afford to go to games. It's like

1438
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 6: they were the players, and like there was a report

1439
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:10,040
Speaker 6: that like Andy Reid was actually like helping children that

1440
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 6: have been separated from their parents and stuff. It's like

1441
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,000
Speaker 6: they were integrated with the crowd in a big way,

1442
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,360
Speaker 6: and it's like, this is what you have to worry

1443
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:18,120
Speaker 6: about happening. And like we you know, we have kids,

1444
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 6: and it's like thirty years ago this wouldn't be on

1445
01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:23,320
Speaker 6: a parent's mind. But now it's like I'm sending my

1446
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:26,280
Speaker 6: kids to school in a you know, a city scape

1447
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,840
Speaker 6: of some to some degree, and I don't know if

1448
01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 6: it's safe at all, and it's like nothing, there's nothing,

1449
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 6: I don't there's all this half the country saying well,

1450
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:38,040
Speaker 6: these are things we want, these weapons for protection, all

1451
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:38,480
Speaker 6: this stuff.

1452
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:39,840
Speaker 2: Enough with that nonsense.

1453
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,920
Speaker 6: Stop taking like money from the National Rifle Association politicians,

1454
01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:46,080
Speaker 6: and like do something about it. Like at what point,

1455
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:47,720
Speaker 6: because I think you're right, it's like it's a news

1456
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:49,800
Speaker 6: story then like if it you know, when when the

1457
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,320
Speaker 6: first time it happens, like when it's Columbine, like the

1458
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:55,120
Speaker 6: nation is stunned, and it's like a two year, three

1459
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 6: year long story. Now it happens and it's in it's

1460
01:05:57,880 --> 01:05:59,960
Speaker 6: gone off the news cycle in two days because we're

1461
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:00,760
Speaker 6: surprised by it.

1462
01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:01,280
Speaker 2: No, and.

1463
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,680
Speaker 5: We try to like we want to focus on the positive,

1464
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 5: and you focus on the heroism of the day, and

1465
01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:10,560
Speaker 5: you do respect that to the end degree, and how

1466
01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:12,960
Speaker 5: the chiefs have reacted and how everyone in that city reacted,

1467
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:16,120
Speaker 5: and yet it's like, not the it's the least surprising

1468
01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:18,680
Speaker 5: thing ever. And so when we're talking about like American

1469
01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,600
Speaker 5: exceptionalism or worse, it's like, this doesn't happen anywhere else.

1470
01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:23,960
Speaker 2: This is just us.

1471
01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:26,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's it's awful. There's nothing else to

1472
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 4: even add to it. Just the fact that there were

1473
01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 4: so many kids that were harmed, and the nurses from

1474
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,680
Speaker 4: the hospitals that were treating them talked about just the

1475
01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 4: fear that was in their faces when they got to

1476
01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 4: the hospital, and just how heartbreaking that is that you

1477
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:47,440
Speaker 4: go to celebrate a Super Bowl win at a parade,

1478
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,680
Speaker 4: which should be the most exciting and fun thing to

1479
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:53,920
Speaker 4: do as a parent with your kids, with your friends,

1480
01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:57,000
Speaker 4: for your entire city, for your team, and then to

1481
01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 4: end up at a hospital and be that scared and

1482
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:03,280
Speaker 4: have that trauma happened, Because that is not something that

1483
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,600
Speaker 4: leaves you for a very, very very long time.

1484
01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 3: And shout out to Patrick Mahomes and his wife, and

1485
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:14,920
Speaker 3: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey and everyone else who you

1486
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 3: know gave money to try to support the victims and.

1487
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 4: The people that tackled the others too, the fans that

1488
01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:26,680
Speaker 4: just like went ahead and put their lives on the

1489
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:27,160
Speaker 4: line too.

1490
01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:30,440
Speaker 3: All right, let's take a break and when we come back,

1491
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 3: it's dig into those off season storylines to come.

1492
01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 2: All right, Okay, welcome back, Big Beefy Show. We were

1493
01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:40,440
Speaker 2: away for over a.

1494
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 5: Week and we couldn't couldn't help to get out in

1495
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 5: front of.

1496
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:50,160
Speaker 3: The bike and talk tutes ago. So the honking, it's

1497
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 3: been heavy honking, but I think it's been a nice

1498
01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:56,040
Speaker 3: ep so far. Absolutely, I got nowhere to be really,

1499
01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 3: I mean I do, but well.

1500
01:07:58,640 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 2: We're here, not right.

1501
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 7: I have a to day with Cynthia.

1502
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:04,520
Speaker 3: Okay, and quite frankly, I'm a little afraid to step

1503
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 3: outside the studio at one false step the temple of

1504
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 3: doom that we now have it here, so hopefully we'll

1505
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,120
Speaker 3: be safe in our ways back to our car anyway,

1506
01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:18,640
Speaker 3: before we do that. It is the twenty twenty four offseason.

1507
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:25,600
Speaker 3: Officially we have free agents. In fact, announcement Horn, you

1508
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 3: know that old announcement, Horn, I don't like that one.

1509
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 1: I like this.

1510
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:38,479
Speaker 3: It bills anticipation about stuff. Greg's free agent one oh

1511
01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:41,960
Speaker 3: one list is dropping later this week and on Thursday

1512
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 3: or something close.

1513
01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:47,040
Speaker 5: Enough, Monday, Monday. It's due this week.

1514
01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 2: It's due. Yeah, they got to edit it for the

1515
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:51,559
Speaker 2: old edit at the end of the week.

1516
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:53,960
Speaker 3: But on Thursday we will be talking about it and

1517
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:56,800
Speaker 3: Mark it just did dawn on me and we probably

1518
01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:57,759
Speaker 3: play a little catchup.

1519
01:08:58,000 --> 01:08:59,200
Speaker 2: But I don't doubt our ability.

1520
01:08:59,640 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 3: Do we want to roll out maybe a free agency

1521
01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 3: one o two this year?

1522
01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:05,880
Speaker 6: Well, you had talked about, you know, on our last

1523
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,080
Speaker 6: show or a couple of shows, that you wanted to

1524
01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:09,919
Speaker 6: maybe take the job from Greg.

1525
01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,800
Speaker 3: And outright say I've abandoned that plan. I enjoyed my

1526
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:13,320
Speaker 3: days offen.

1527
01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, he announced that would have to happen during your vacation. Yes,

1528
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:18,599
Speaker 6: I think that we you know, we've customarily come come

1529
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 6: up with our own list, and I think we were

1530
01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:24,720
Speaker 6: cap Maybe we just go we don't gone necessarily, we

1531
01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:27,400
Speaker 6: go we go eleven, go two hundred, three hundred deep

1532
01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:28,400
Speaker 6: if we need Oh, you want to go out, I

1533
01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 6: mean like kind of be like then the viewer who's

1534
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,280
Speaker 6: new to the exercises, like, wait a minute, those guys

1535
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 6: worked harder than that guy.

1536
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:37,400
Speaker 2: How many free agents are there but I know.

1537
01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:39,519
Speaker 6: But after, but after you get to like like two hundred,

1538
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:41,200
Speaker 6: three hundreds of random name generator.

1539

1541
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:53,040
Speaker 3: the Good Players Association are eligible for free agency? Because

1542
01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:56,320
Speaker 3: I'm saying, we just get the whole ran, the whole

1543
01:09:56,400 --> 01:10:00,280
Speaker 3: right list, right, we'll do We'll do twelve hundred. It's

1544
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 3: that many. I know it's not that many, but if

1545
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:05,000
Speaker 3: it is, let's find out. Eric, once we get that

1546

Speaker 3: footage from upstairs, can we find out how many free

1547
01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:11,639
Speaker 3: agents are there? Or maybe put in a big funk

01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:21,759
Speaker 7: Sessler's list will be three to five.

1553
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:25,160
Speaker 6: Hundred, then well, Sessler, and like Dan Ran and Market,

1554
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:26,680
Speaker 6: I felt better about the eleven, but.

1555
01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 2: I think it sets. It sets the barn and I

1556
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:32,439
Speaker 2: like your ambition.

1557
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:35,759
Speaker 3: It blinds me with the greatness of it and the lofty,

1558
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:36,920
Speaker 3: the loftiness of it.

1559
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:39,760
Speaker 2: So let's do it. So the free agency three oh one,

1560
01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:40,400
Speaker 2: let's do that.

1561
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 3: Mark and Dan dropping at some point We're gonna at

1562
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:48,040
Speaker 3: some point sneak attack on the old rosendog here. But

1563
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:50,360
Speaker 3: Gregg's one on one is coming next week on dot com.

1564
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:52,320
Speaker 3: But we're gonna talk about it. Uh so you have

1565
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 3: free agency that's coming. Of course, the draft is coming,

1566
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,240
Speaker 3: you know, like move the sticks guy, he's already up

1567
01:10:58,280 --> 01:10:59,200
Speaker 3: to mock two point zero.

1568
01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:00,320
Speaker 7: Oh, Mike, all ready.

1569
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 3: So with that, with that in mind, let's let's get

1570
01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:05,280
Speaker 3: into it. And Colleen, do you want to get us going?

1571
01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:08,240
Speaker 3: How strong do you about? How Jeremiah?

1572
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:09,320
Speaker 2: I feel great.

1573
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:09,840
Speaker 7: I feel great.

1574
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:11,200
Speaker 2: It feels like I can't miss.

1575
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:12,559
Speaker 7: This is very easy.

1576
01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:15,640
Speaker 4: Although last night it was sexiest storylines and then this

1577
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:18,800
Speaker 4: morning it was huge storylines, but that's okay. Storylines are

1578
01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:20,360
Speaker 4: storylines and it's the same thing.

1579
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 3: So nice try though that I did not give you

1580
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:26,160
Speaker 3: a mixed cross signals.

1581
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:29,240
Speaker 2: No, he's sexy, huge story right right.

1582
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 4: So I feel like the number one thing for me

1583
01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:36,720
Speaker 4: is where does Kirk Cousins land, Because for the quarterback,

1584
01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:40,280
Speaker 4: the quarterbacks in general, like between him and Baker Mayfield,

1585
01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:43,280
Speaker 4: I need to know what happens. But with Kirk Cousins,

1586
01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:46,040
Speaker 4: he's obviously he's going to be thirty six this summer.

1587
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:49,719
Speaker 4: He's coming off the torn Achilles, but he did say

1588
01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 4: he didn't say he would take a hometown discount, but

1589
01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,760
Speaker 4: he said that he's not worried about the money at

1590
01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,200
Speaker 4: the stage of his career. Mark how you were talking

1591
01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:01,080
Speaker 4: about earlier, maybe money is in every thing for Kirk Cousins.

1592
01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 3: He was on our show too last at Radio Row

1593
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 3: and he made it very clear like he is all

1594
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:09,160
Speaker 3: about testing that market too. Kirk knows how to get paid,

1595
01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:11,040
Speaker 3: So I don't know if I buy into like that

1596
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 3: he likes the money.

1597
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 4: But okay, so Justin Jefferson said he's not signing a

1598
01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 4: new deal until he knows that Cousins is coming back art,

1599
01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:21,120
Speaker 4: so he's got that leverage going for him. And then

1600
01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 4: Quincy Adonna Mensa their GM expressed his desire to keep

1601
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:29,880
Speaker 4: Cousins and he had already redone whatever the extension was before,

1602
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:33,360
Speaker 4: So it's not like those two are completely disconnected. They

1603
01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:36,080
Speaker 4: already have they've already worked on a deal together before.

1604
01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:39,960
Speaker 7: So that makes me think that he could potentially be back.

1605
01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:41,799
Speaker 7: But I mean, it's been a while.

1606
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:44,000
Speaker 4: Since he tested free agency and we know what happened

1607
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:44,439
Speaker 4: when he did.

1608
01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:48,719
Speaker 3: Yes, So there's reporting out there. I think PFT reported

1609
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:50,760
Speaker 3: that the Vikings aren't necessarily willing to give him an

1610
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 3: all guaranteed contract. Our own Pell Raiser reported that the

1611
01:12:55,240 --> 01:13:00,960
Speaker 3: Vikings want Cousins back, but this is interesting. Could go

1612
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:04,720
Speaker 3: after a cheaper veteran like Sam Darnald if Cousins is

1613
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:10,200
Speaker 3: too expensive, hoping the veteran referring to Sam Donald would

1614
01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:14,120
Speaker 3: be quote this year's Baker Mayfield while also buying time

1615
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:15,759
Speaker 3: to develop a rookie.

1616
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:17,920
Speaker 2: So you have your players.

1617
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:21,160
Speaker 6: Sam Donald Baker Mayfield. Argument to Bed, You're just trying

1618
01:13:21,160 --> 01:13:22,720
Speaker 6: to get him to be Baker Mayfield.

1619
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:25,599
Speaker 2: At this point. Well, so here we so they believe

1620
01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:26,280
Speaker 2: a good point.

1621
01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 3: Well, the point being is that up people see Sam

1622
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:32,559
Speaker 3: still as give him an actual chance, and he could

1623
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:37,200
Speaker 3: do what Baker did last year. That's that's more buying

1624
01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:40,200
Speaker 3: into the old Zeusser's point that Donald has a market

1625
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:42,880
Speaker 3: because people see a playmaker.

1626
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:44,840
Speaker 2: Still, that's beside the point.

1627
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:47,599
Speaker 7: Back to you, Sam Donald, Yes, back to.

1628
01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:48,240
Speaker 2: You, Colleen.

1629
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:50,840
Speaker 3: So the Vikings want him back, but they want to

1630
01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:54,240
Speaker 3: do it their way, and if he does end up

1631
01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:56,400
Speaker 3: hitting the open market, it is like Aaron Rodgers is

1632
01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:59,559
Speaker 3: the big off season quarterback story. Cousins could help a

1633
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:02,200
Speaker 3: lot of teams in a profound way, very big one.

1634
01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:04,559
Speaker 7: But how will he even be coming off that Achilles

1635
01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:05,240
Speaker 7: at his age?

1636
01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 9: Right?

1637
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:06,000
Speaker 2: I too?

1638
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:09,519
Speaker 5: I he is such an interesting case. I thought when

1639
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:11,240
Speaker 5: he became a free agent last time, like he was

1640
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:13,360
Speaker 5: going to do better than people thought, and he did,

1641
01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:19,439
Speaker 5: ultimately getting the fully guaranteed contract from the Vikings. This time,

1642
01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:22,840
Speaker 5: I'm not totally sure, cause he's coming off in an

1643
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,320
Speaker 5: Achilles and you just go through the teams that would

1644
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 5: give him like forty fifty million dollars a year. Will

1645
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:33,200
Speaker 5: the Vikings I'm not totally sure that the Vikings will,

1646
01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:35,479
Speaker 5: Like I'm sure they would have him back, but I

1647
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,160
Speaker 5: think they might be thinking, we got to pay justin Jefferson.

1648
01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:41,719
Speaker 5: We need to start over at quarterback at some point.

1649
01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:46,120
Speaker 5: Maybe this is that point? Would it be Denver that

1650
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:50,760
Speaker 5: to me is the team that is most desperate and

1651
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 5: almost plug and play in terms of their coach, and

1652
01:14:53,960 --> 01:14:56,760
Speaker 5: that Kirk Cousins would make sense there. That's one team.

1653
01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 5: But after you get past that, it's like the Raiders,

1654
01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 5: you maybe like Falcons, maybe like there's no one that

1655
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:08,519
Speaker 5: just you look at and you say, they'll definitely give

1656
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:09,320
Speaker 5: up forty.

1657
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:11,840
Speaker 7: Fifty And then the Steelers come in right.

1658
01:15:11,880 --> 01:15:13,960
Speaker 2: I don't think the Steelers are out there, ain't anyone.

1659
01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 3: Oh let let um, let me out of the closets.

1660
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:18,080
Speaker 2: That would be a good match.

1661
01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 6: The one thing like Sean Payton during the Superowl week,

1662
01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:22,799
Speaker 6: like went out of his way to talk up Bager

1663
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,360
Speaker 6: Mayfield a ton too, like I would just I think

1664
01:15:25,360 --> 01:15:27,160
Speaker 6: that bigger And that's a whole different conversation. But it's

1665
01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:29,559
Speaker 6: like he's I think he's gonna go after a veteran

1666
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,040
Speaker 6: if they don't want to trade up to try to get.

1667
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:32,840
Speaker 5: It's just not that many teams because you know the

1668
01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:37,360
Speaker 5: number one overall pick that takes U the Bears out

1669
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:42,040
Speaker 5: of the mix. Basically you figure Washington's probably out of

1670
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 5: the mix, although you never know, in a in a

1671
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,680
Speaker 5: weird world, they could decide to trade that pick. You know,

1672
01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:49,800
Speaker 5: the Patriots, they're a little like that's taking some there's

1673
01:15:49,800 --> 01:15:50,960
Speaker 5: only so many spots here.

1674
01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:53,880
Speaker 2: The forty nine Ers, I don't think they would do that.

1675
01:15:53,960 --> 01:15:54,680
Speaker 2: Oh that would be.

1676
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 6: That is such an a note that that keeps coming

1677
01:15:56,880 --> 01:15:58,400
Speaker 6: back over and over the hand.

1678
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:00,480
Speaker 2: Kirk Cussling's that would be.

1679
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,559
Speaker 5: Because if it was any other year in the Shanahan era,

1680
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:04,639
Speaker 5: I think it would have happened, but this year won't happen.

1681
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:06,679
Speaker 2: I'm with you, all right.

1682
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:10,439
Speaker 3: So Cousins atop the quarterback discussion list, right next to him,

1683
01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:14,800
Speaker 3: I would say, is justin Fields. That is another huge

1684
01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:18,479
Speaker 3: storyline right here. The Chicago Bears, of course have the

1685
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 3: number one pick thanks to the Panthers and the trade

1686
01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:25,960
Speaker 3: that they made. And this one's interesting because well I

1687
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:27,360
Speaker 3: mentioned move the sticks.

1688
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 2: He says in his latest mock.

1689
01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:33,919
Speaker 3: He's got Caleb Williams, the USC Star going to the Bears.

1690
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:36,160
Speaker 2: That's an option that they have at number one. They

1691
01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:36,960
Speaker 2: have a bunch of options.

1692
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:41,000
Speaker 3: Another option is that they keep justin Fields and either

1693
01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:43,960
Speaker 3: use the number one overall pick or on something else

1694
01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:46,559
Speaker 3: or maybe even a quarterback, or trade that number one

1695
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:51,400
Speaker 3: pick down, or maybe you keep justin Fields and you

1696
01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:54,280
Speaker 3: trade that pick and they take a quarterback later. They

1697
01:16:54,320 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 3: have so many choices, or not take a quarterback at all.

1698
01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:01,559
Speaker 3: This I will tell you though. Here's reporting. Good job

1699
01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:06,360
Speaker 3: by Jenna Lemonchelley of The New York Post. Notice that

1700
01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:09,480
Speaker 3: Justin Fields no longer follows the Bears on Instagram.

1701
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 2: Alert. I'm not doing that rupe alert. I mean not

1702
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 2: doing what he did it. I know it just it's like, now.

1703
01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:19,440
Speaker 4: Would you guys unfollow NFL media, like during your negotiations.

1704
01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:21,919
Speaker 7: My contract's coming up, So I'm just wondering would.

1705
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:23,599
Speaker 2: They even notice? I would do it?

1706
01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:26,799
Speaker 5: If right, who's tracking? It's just a sad jenn.

1707
01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:32,519
Speaker 2: In this case, we're tracking there on the Lemon Shelley Beach.

1708
01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,160
Speaker 2: He might report like, we also have a contract come out.

1709
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:36,880
Speaker 2: I don't even know if I am following it. Let's

1710
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:41,120
Speaker 2: let's maybe try it. You know that's fair. I'll do

1711
01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:42,000
Speaker 2: it at once.

1712
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:45,920
Speaker 3: Anyway, And that is a famous trouble alert now with

1713
01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:50,160
Speaker 3: players that are unhappy for whatever reason, unfollowing the team

1714
01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:50,559
Speaker 3: that they're on.

1715
01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:53,760
Speaker 2: I thought it was notable at the very least.

1716
01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:56,320
Speaker 3: That means he's just kind of annoyed that most likely

1717
01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:58,160
Speaker 3: he hasn't been given a firm answer one way or

1718
01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:01,360
Speaker 3: the other. There's also you could look it is maybe

1719
01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:03,920
Speaker 3: he was told that this is they're going in a

1720
01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:07,760
Speaker 3: direction that involves Kate Williams or whoever else, and he's

1721
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:09,800
Speaker 3: already now looking forward and he's like, I'm done with

1722
01:18:09,840 --> 01:18:10,240
Speaker 3: the Bears.

1723
01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:12,040
Speaker 2: They told me they're done with me. Anyway.

1724
01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:14,680
Speaker 3: There is so much intrigue around this, and it has

1725
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:19,920
Speaker 3: such a big butterfly effect, Gregy. Whatever the Bears decide,

1726
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:24,439
Speaker 3: because not only if they their decision changes the trajectory

1727
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:28,200
Speaker 3: of their franchise, it also if Fields does end up

1728
01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:32,280
Speaker 3: hitting the trade market, that changes the draft for whatever

1729
01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:33,559
Speaker 3: team ends up going for him.

1730
01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:35,360
Speaker 2: I mean, it's very it's a big story.

1731
01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:41,120
Speaker 5: He's a very unique player to be available in a trade.

1732
01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:43,880
Speaker 5: I can't think of many that are quite like him,

1733
01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:49,080
Speaker 5: that are young, promising, have a lot of tape. You

1734
01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:51,200
Speaker 5: can look at it a few different ways. He's not

1735
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 5: like a Kevin Cobb or a Jimmy g or these

1736
01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:58,679
Speaker 5: guys who tend to get some pop in the trade

1737
01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:01,400
Speaker 5: market at quarterback that you saw him for like five games,

1738
01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:03,599
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, and they'd end up getting

1739
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:06,160
Speaker 5: a nice draft picks for him, but they're just like

1740
01:19:06,640 --> 01:19:09,240
Speaker 5: more promised than ever, like someone you actually this is

1741
01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:12,880
Speaker 5: a top pick who's shown a lot and it's pretty good.

1742
01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:16,479
Speaker 5: I think is at the Dalton line or above it

1743
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:18,920
Speaker 5: or right around it at this point, but certainly has

1744
01:19:18,960 --> 01:19:20,760
Speaker 5: potential to be has done a lot of good things.

1745
01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:23,400
Speaker 5: Guys like that just don't become available very often. So

1746
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:27,120
Speaker 5: I think he's a fascinating case. I've never believed that

1747
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:30,200
Speaker 5: this was a decision I didn't think he had. I

1748
01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:33,559
Speaker 5: don't think he had any chance of staying. I don't

1749
01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:35,040
Speaker 5: think he has any chance of staying.

1750
01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 2: I don't. I'm sure they.

1751
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:39,320
Speaker 5: Would, like like they go through the process of thinking

1752
01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 5: about it or whatever. But I've never thought he had

1753
01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:46,080
Speaker 5: a realistic chance at staying because there are great quarterbacks

1754
01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:48,840
Speaker 5: in this class, and there's why would you keep Justin

1755
01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:49,760
Speaker 5: Fields over that?

1756
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:53,479
Speaker 3: So at college quarterbacks in this class. That's part of this, Like,

1757
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:55,479
Speaker 3: you don't know, I get it, but I just don't

1758
01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:56,840
Speaker 3: think they would look at it like that.

1759
01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:58,439
Speaker 5: I think they would look at it like we've seen

1760
01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:00,320
Speaker 5: him for this long and we're not totally sure.

1761
01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:01,280
Speaker 2: I'm just saying they're not.

1762
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 3: Whoever it is is not a guarantee either, just like

1763
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:04,240
Speaker 3: Fields wasn't a guarantee.

1764
01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:04,519
Speaker 2: It's not.

1765
01:20:04,880 --> 01:20:07,040
Speaker 3: Of course, it's not like Kirk Cousins or Justin but

1766
01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:10,200
Speaker 3: he he can drafted Justin Fields highly.

1767
01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:12,679
Speaker 5: Right, but here we are so not nearly as highly.

1768
01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 5: He's not even in the same ballpark that Kayla Williams

1769
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:19,719
Speaker 5: or Drake May we're coming out of college, or maybe

1770
01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:22,160
Speaker 5: even Jaden Daniels. So I do think that that the

1771
01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,280
Speaker 5: players himself mattered, But I think he's going to have

1772
01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:26,240
Speaker 5: a bigger trade market than people think.

1773
01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:26,680
Speaker 2: Well, I think.

1774
01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:29,320
Speaker 6: I think people with you because I think his gifts,

1775
01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:32,519
Speaker 6: especially when you talk to like defensive coaches, they are

1776
01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:34,960
Speaker 6: all in on like the mobility of a quarterback. And

1777
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:36,519
Speaker 6: I think he's just that dangerous. And I think you

1778
01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:39,120
Speaker 6: could look at the Bears and say, nice end of

1779
01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:41,400
Speaker 6: your season, like we've seen growth in Justin Fields, but

1780
01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:43,639
Speaker 6: we don't really trust that you know how to maximize

1781
01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:44,200
Speaker 6: the quarterback.

1782
01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:44,599
Speaker 2: We do.

1783
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:46,360
Speaker 6: We're gonna take a chance on this guy, and I

1784
01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:48,040
Speaker 6: don't know what you'd get for him in terms of

1785
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:48,800
Speaker 6: a trade.

1786
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:49,160
Speaker 2: That's the thing.

1787
01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:51,120
Speaker 5: I've I talked with people about this and it was like, well,

1788
01:20:51,120 --> 01:20:52,920
Speaker 5: if it's a third, sure, I don't know if I

1789
01:20:52,960 --> 01:20:54,840
Speaker 5: want to give up a second. I'm like, Justin Field

1790
01:20:54,920 --> 01:21:00,120
Speaker 5: is a pretty good option for Atlanta, for the Raiders,

1791
01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:03,880
Speaker 5: who have his offensive coordinator from a year ago, for

1792
01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:07,760
Speaker 5: maybe the Vikings, maybe the Bucks, maybe the Patriots, like

1793
01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:10,840
Speaker 5: he's a pretty big upgrade. I think they're getting like

1794
01:21:10,880 --> 01:21:14,200
Speaker 5: a second plus. Maybe I got a com for you.

1795
01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:16,680
Speaker 3: Met We mentioned Darnold when he was traded from the

1796
01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 3: Jets to the Panthers. He was a former number three

1797
01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:22,880
Speaker 3: overall pick. The Jets got back a twenty twenty one

1798
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,720
Speaker 3: sixth rounder and a second and a fourth round, and.

1799
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:27,600
Speaker 2: He's stuck with the Jets.

1800
01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:30,160
Speaker 3: Well, that's what I'm saying.

1801
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:34,200
Speaker 6: That's other teams thinking we can make we can do by.

1802
01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:36,000
Speaker 3: What I'm saying, people do that. I think that's a

1803
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:38,760
Speaker 3: baseline what fields could command. Could he get a late

1804
01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:40,559
Speaker 3: first round pick? Maybe I don't.

1805
01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:42,559
Speaker 5: Here's I don't think that's a crazy thing to do.

1806
01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:46,280
Speaker 3: One other thing that complicates this And why I know

1807
01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:48,120
Speaker 3: you you're you're certain of it, Greg, And I think

1808
01:21:48,160 --> 01:21:51,040
Speaker 3: the way it's trending is he's probably starting over somewhere else.

1809
01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:54,120
Speaker 3: I thought he was pretty good last year. I thought

1810
01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:57,200
Speaker 3: he really showed growth last year. I think the locker

1811
01:21:57,320 --> 01:22:00,000
Speaker 3: room loved him. You heard that constantly. Everybody wants him back.

1812
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 3: They gave him a number one receiver and DJ Moore

1813
01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:04,559
Speaker 3: and more played like an All Pro last year. Like

1814
01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:07,240
Speaker 3: I thought, it makes it more difficult in terms of

1815
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,280
Speaker 3: a decision, because I think he did show again he

1816
01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:11,520
Speaker 3: gave you it's tantalizing.

1817
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 4: Helps his value, but also from a financial standpoint, they're

1818
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:16,840
Speaker 4: gonna want to restart on a rookie contract so they

1819
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:18,360
Speaker 4: can continue to reach I get.

1820
01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:20,400
Speaker 3: That that's part of Yeah, that's a good point because

1821
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:22,680
Speaker 3: that's part of the business model with these teams, and

1822
01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,720
Speaker 3: they treasure that. But man A Fields goes to the

1823
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:28,800
Speaker 3: Giants and becomes a superstar. The Bears are going to

1824
01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:31,639
Speaker 3: be happy if their guy is a stud. But it's

1825
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 3: a big risk. He's shown enough where it could really backfire,

1826
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:37,000
Speaker 3: and they moved him. And that's what makes it a

1827
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:38,960
Speaker 3: really fun interesting storyline.

1828
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:39,880
Speaker 2: Gregory, how about you?

1829
01:22:39,960 --> 01:22:44,840
Speaker 5: Okay, I am I overarching one. As will any big

1830
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:47,240
Speaker 5: name wide receivers get traded? And you know who will

1831
01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:49,360
Speaker 5: it be? And we've seen it happen enough that, like

1832
01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:53,080
Speaker 5: I now believe, oh well, this is one of the

1833
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:55,560
Speaker 5: things that you can either expect or as possible. And

1834
01:22:56,640 --> 01:23:00,479
Speaker 5: well this offseason there was some buzz I think last

1835
01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:03,120
Speaker 5: week floating around about Justin Jefferson. I don't think they

1836
01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:06,200
Speaker 5: would ever trade him, but I think him throwing these

1837
01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:09,320
Speaker 5: flares up and the amount of money he's gonna cost, like,

1838
01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:12,559
Speaker 5: I think teams will maybe try to sniff around him.

1839
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:13,679
Speaker 2: Did he get to Minnesota?

1840
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:17,120
Speaker 3: Greg Right, Stefan Diggs brought it out and they did

1841
01:23:17,120 --> 01:23:18,160
Speaker 3: the trade for the number one, but.

1842
01:23:18,479 --> 01:23:19,720
Speaker 2: Another name I think that fits in.

1843
01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:23,320
Speaker 5: So there's this group. Jefferson is the least likely, but

1844
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:24,760
Speaker 5: you know it's a G.

1845
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:25,160
Speaker 2: Brown.

1846
01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 5: I never would have thought a Brown would have got traded.

1847
01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:31,479
Speaker 5: Diggs is another one. Uh, Brandon Ayuk. There there's you

1848
01:23:31,520 --> 01:23:32,799
Speaker 5: know he wants more money.

1849
01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:33,280
Speaker 2: Now.

1850
01:23:34,120 --> 01:23:36,240
Speaker 5: DeVante Adams I think is gonna stay at this point

1851
01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:39,200
Speaker 5: because it doesn't financially it hurts them to trade.

1852
01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:41,280
Speaker 2: It right anywhere.

1853
01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:43,960
Speaker 5: So he's another one and I would just throw it

1854
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:47,200
Speaker 5: is Tyreek Hill, like the craziest person ever. Again, these

1855
01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:52,479
Speaker 5: guys bring back such a huge draft haul and they

1856
01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 5: cost so much money. Just like which if any of

1857
01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 5: these guys gets dealt, and the way that Ayuk is

1858
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:00,600
Speaker 5: putting it out there, and it's the same way that

1859
01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,400
Speaker 5: it's like he went. He tries to get the contract

1860
01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:05,240
Speaker 5: he wanted, Like he tries to find out, you know,

1861
01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:07,120
Speaker 5: from other teams what they would pay him, and then

1862
01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:09,320
Speaker 5: they can start making it uncomfortable on the forty nine

1863
01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:11,639
Speaker 5: ers if the forty nine ers aren't ready to pay him.

1864
01:24:11,760 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 2: Thirty four minute I had I had specifically.

1865
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:19,240
Speaker 6: Stephan Diggs because I think the bills are like one,

1866
01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:22,200
Speaker 6: like because they were wiped out like a month ago.

1867
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:24,479
Speaker 6: At this point, you kind of forget how dark that

1868
01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:26,920
Speaker 6: season ended, and like where that team kind of sits,

1869
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:30,080
Speaker 6: And like Gabe Davis has been verbal about the fact

1870
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:32,400
Speaker 6: that he wants to test free agency. He could be gone.

1871
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:34,400
Speaker 6: He could get much more money than the Lels want

1872
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:37,080
Speaker 6: to pay him. Stephan Diggs ever requested a trade, you

1873
01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:38,920
Speaker 6: are left. I already thought this was a team that

1874
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:42,400
Speaker 6: was missing an element for Josh Allen in the offense.

1875
01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:44,759
Speaker 6: They seem like one guy short in a number of games,

1876
01:24:44,880 --> 01:24:47,559
Speaker 6: and suddenly they could look completely different on offense if

1877
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:49,599
Speaker 6: these chips fall in a certain way where you lose

1878
01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:51,720
Speaker 6: your kind of you you're dumb one guy. But then

1879
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:54,320
Speaker 6: game also has these games where explodes out of Note.

1880
01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:56,439
Speaker 3: The reason why they felt a player short this year

1881
01:24:56,479 --> 01:24:59,679
Speaker 3: is because Stephan Diggs wasn't Stephan Diggs anymore last year. Yeah,

1882
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:02,519
Speaker 3: that was that makes as you're saying, was that one

1883
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:05,559
Speaker 3: of your storylines? Because like, what is Diggs's market coming

1884
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:07,439
Speaker 3: off the year he just came off and he's another

1885
01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:07,840
Speaker 3: year old.

1886
01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,479
Speaker 2: I think he get paid though for just like I

1887
01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:12,160
Speaker 2: don't know, do you think he's.

1888
01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:14,240
Speaker 3: Falling off I mean, what's his contract. He's under contract,

1889
01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:17,120
Speaker 3: So like, like, what would a team give up if

1890
01:25:17,160 --> 01:25:20,200
Speaker 3: he were put on the market as one of those

1891
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:21,720
Speaker 3: players you're referring to, Greg.

1892
01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:25,280
Speaker 2: Not as much? Uh? Would you?

1893
01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:28,880
Speaker 5: Could you get a first round pick still for Stefan Diggs? Also,

1894
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,200
Speaker 5: the I personally think that's not crazy. Again, I look

1895
01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:33,960
Speaker 5: at it like the Rams, I would not. What if

1896
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:39,640
Speaker 5: your round picks equal twenty to thirty for the moon Years.

1897
01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:41,800
Speaker 6: Number thirty two, Right, that's that's not a first round

1898
01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:44,320
Speaker 6: The Chiefs can like, that's better than anything they're going to.

1899
01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:49,640
Speaker 2: Get every year. Patrick Mahomes another.

1900
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:52,680
Speaker 3: In general though, also like you mentioning Jeremiah again, so

1901
01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:56,320
Speaker 3: you know, it just shows wow, the level of we're

1902
01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:59,840
Speaker 3: of all charity. Yeah, like the Patriots have the more

1903
01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:03,519
Speaker 3: offensive Patriots. He has Marvin Harrison Junior going there, and

1904
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:07,640
Speaker 3: if Harrison is as good as everyone says, yeah, you

1905
01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 3: got to use a premium pick on a wide receiver.

1906
01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:13,519
Speaker 3: But you also these drafts keep churning out big time

1907
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:17,639
Speaker 3: players that wide receiver first round, second, third round, fourth round.

1908
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:19,840
Speaker 3: Do you really want to give up a top tier

1909
01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:23,880
Speaker 3: asset for an expensive veteran wide receiver. It might be

1910
01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:25,479
Speaker 3: a pain in the ass to use Diggs as a

1911
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 3: reference there, like where you could if you trust your

1912
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:32,240
Speaker 3: scouting people, you could probably find someone at a much

1913
01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,680
Speaker 3: lesser draft value that will as a young, up and

1914
01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:38,160
Speaker 3: coming contract controllable player.

1915
01:26:38,240 --> 01:26:39,680
Speaker 2: Like it's this sised to.

1916
01:26:39,720 --> 01:26:43,679
Speaker 5: Be an incredibly good wide receiver class. I think Dane

1917
01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:46,320
Speaker 5: Brugler of the Athletic had like seventeen in his top

1918
01:26:46,320 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 5: one hundred.

1919
01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:49,880
Speaker 2: Wide receiver classes are just going to get better.

1920
01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:54,040
Speaker 5: Malik Neighbors and Rome Dunze like those are top seven,

1921
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:56,639
Speaker 5: like three receivers are probably going in the top seven

1922
01:26:56,720 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 5: or eight pick. So that does that does throw a

1923
01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:00,679
Speaker 5: little bit of a wrench into this. But I wanted

1924
01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:02,240
Speaker 5: to throw that out there because I don't know what

1925
01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:04,679
Speaker 5: the name's gonna be, and yet I feel like someone's

1926
01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:07,160
Speaker 5: got someone weird is gonna shake loose that we end

1927
01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,080
Speaker 5: up talking a lot about in March.

1928
01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:12,439
Speaker 3: And Aaron Rodgers runs the Jets, and if he tells

1929
01:27:13,160 --> 01:27:15,639
Speaker 3: Jode and Woody to pick up the phone and call

1930
01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:19,040
Speaker 3: the Raiders, I still want to be stunned if Adams

1931
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:22,519
Speaker 3: ends up there, just because Rogers has that much power

1932
01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:24,360
Speaker 3: to say, get it done now with the Raiders.

1933
01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:25,439
Speaker 2: If they want to answer the phone.

1934
01:27:26,200 --> 01:27:29,200
Speaker 5: That's another conversation, right, And if Ayuquant's thirty million a

1935
01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:32,920
Speaker 5: year and they can get a monster deal back for him,

1936
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:35,559
Speaker 5: like do they make a decision of him under Ebo

1937
01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:36,960
Speaker 5: and all that stuff go ahead?

1938
01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:37,519
Speaker 2: Mark, what do you got?

1939
01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:40,320
Speaker 6: It kind of segues into my one because I obviously,

1940
01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:42,880
Speaker 6: like the ones that you mentioned are all obvious ones too.

1941
01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:45,760
Speaker 6: But there are a couple teams that just ended the

1942
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:49,760
Speaker 6: season in chaotic corners where it's like you're kind of

1943
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:52,080
Speaker 6: everything that you thought about them has changed, and I

1944
01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:54,439
Speaker 6: would list like and I think this is the off

1945
01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:57,559
Speaker 6: season could change everything you think about even a junk team.

1946
01:27:57,800 --> 01:27:59,559
Speaker 6: So there are these teams that are like came into

1947
01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:01,960
Speaker 6: last seas and with a ton of hope, and like

1948
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,920
Speaker 6: the Eagles, for instance, like where are we going to

1949
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,599
Speaker 6: be after the free agent and draft process with two

1950
01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:10,559
Speaker 6: new two new coordinators? Again, like do we feel differently

1951
01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:12,559
Speaker 6: about them? Do they reset the board? Because right now

1952
01:28:12,600 --> 01:28:15,240
Speaker 6: it feels like the energy around the Eagles and they

1953
01:28:15,360 --> 01:28:17,960
Speaker 6: you know, for years it's like Howie Roseman and the

1954
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:20,640
Speaker 6: whole organization is just top class and they're they keep

1955
01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:21,719
Speaker 6: they could keep over achieving.

1956
01:28:23,800 --> 01:28:24,680
Speaker 2: There was like the time, I'm not.

1957
01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:27,400
Speaker 6: I'm more saying of late though, they're like the smartest

1958
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,519
Speaker 6: team around. They're drafting the player that no one else

1959
01:28:29,560 --> 01:28:31,920
Speaker 6: can can develop, and like we're in a weird place

1960
01:28:31,960 --> 01:28:33,679
Speaker 6: with them. We're in a weird place with the Cowboys,

1961
01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:36,720
Speaker 6: Like can the Cowboys like actually get us hopeful and

1962
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:39,519
Speaker 6: excited about their season again versus just the monik around them?

1963
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:41,160
Speaker 6: And I throw the Jets in there because it's like

1964
01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:44,880
Speaker 6: the Jets are fundamentally no different than the team that

1965
01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:47,679
Speaker 6: we were talking about as potential AFC Super Bowl team.

1966
01:28:47,960 --> 01:28:50,280
Speaker 6: And they've got another draft, and they've got they've got

1967
01:28:50,320 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 6: another round of free agency, but there's this feeling like

1968
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:55,720
Speaker 6: you just mentioned that they're controlled by their quarterback, which

1969
01:28:55,720 --> 01:28:57,600
Speaker 6: is like about as unhealthy as it gets. That you

1970
01:28:57,720 --> 01:29:00,320
Speaker 6: kept an offensive coordinator that showed no acumen to run

1971
01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:02,280
Speaker 6: an offense that your head coach seemed to go from

1972
01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,439
Speaker 6: alpha male to I'm not sure this guy even knows

1973
01:29:05,479 --> 01:29:06,519
Speaker 6: what he's doing at this point.

1974
01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:08,760
Speaker 2: And it all feels like those three teams.

1975
01:29:08,800 --> 01:29:11,160
Speaker 6: But there's others I throw in there that are mysterious,

1976
01:29:11,240 --> 01:29:14,720
Speaker 6: like a Harbaugh Greg Roman offense with Justin Herbert, Like

1977
01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:16,800
Speaker 6: I can't wait to see what pieces they add to

1978
01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:19,160
Speaker 6: that and what that offense looks like a couple months now.

1979
01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:20,559
Speaker 2: But like these teams that are like in a.

1980
01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:23,360
Speaker 6: Dark spot, will it get any better or is it

1981
01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:26,640
Speaker 6: just gonna crescendo even worse into.

1982
01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:29,760
Speaker 3: Ugly terry team ors that had either ugly seasons last

1983
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:33,160
Speaker 3: year or disappointing ends what they do.

1984
01:29:33,360 --> 01:29:35,720
Speaker 4: That's interesting that you mentioned the Cowboys too, because I

1985
01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:39,559
Speaker 4: think about Dak Prescott and his absolutely insane cap hit

1986
01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:43,080
Speaker 4: that's coming up this year. He goes from his cap

1987
01:29:43,200 --> 01:29:46,559
Speaker 4: number is fifty nine point four million dollars and like

1988
01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:50,599
Speaker 4: the highest cap hit this past season was Patrick Mahomes

1989
01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:52,880
Speaker 4: at thirty seven. But like the way that Dak's deal

1990
01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:56,439
Speaker 4: is done, Like remember how difficult it was to get

1991
01:29:56,439 --> 01:29:59,040
Speaker 4: his deal done last time and all of the negotiations

1992
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:01,360
Speaker 4: that went into it. He has one year left, he

1993
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:03,840
Speaker 4: has a no trade clause, he has all sorts of

1994
01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:07,040
Speaker 4: clauses in there. He can't be tagged like he can

1995
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:08,519
Speaker 4: get honestly anything.

1996
01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:10,799
Speaker 3: So I think of the things that I'm most certain

1997
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:15,080
Speaker 3: about this offseason, yeah, is Jarah and Dak doing business together?

1998
01:30:15,120 --> 01:30:18,280
Speaker 3: Because yeah, I have to know, like we might start

1999
01:30:18,280 --> 01:30:21,040
Speaker 3: to have doubts about Dak's ability to really lead a

2000
01:30:21,080 --> 01:30:23,000
Speaker 3: team all the way. But I don't think Jarah has

2001
01:30:23,040 --> 01:30:25,320
Speaker 3: any doubts. He'd fire everybody else before Dak.

2002
01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:25,799
Speaker 2: In my opinion.

2003
01:30:26,120 --> 01:30:31,160
Speaker 3: So yeah, they kind of have to they will, and

2004
01:30:31,200 --> 01:30:32,479
Speaker 3: they've got a lot going on in.

2005
01:30:32,560 --> 01:30:36,200
Speaker 5: Terms of cap issues. Tyron Smith void deal just foided.

2006
01:30:36,280 --> 01:30:38,800
Speaker 5: He played at a high level there. The Eagles to me,

2007
01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:42,599
Speaker 5: are the team though that I expect will look very

2008
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:45,080
Speaker 5: different a month from now, whereas the Cowboys I think

2009
01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:47,479
Speaker 5: are just they're kind of locked in. They're gonna add

2010
01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:49,640
Speaker 5: some they'll they'll do things on the edges. They've got

2011
01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:51,640
Speaker 5: some important players coming up. Whereas the Eagles, you know,

2012
01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:53,759
Speaker 5: there was that report that Hassan Redick might be traded,

2013
01:30:53,800 --> 01:30:56,000
Speaker 5: but they have all their older guys are kind of

2014
01:30:56,040 --> 01:30:58,080
Speaker 5: up for I don't know what they're gonna do. But

2015
01:30:58,160 --> 01:31:00,240
Speaker 5: like when I'm talking about these receivers, could a J.

2016
01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:03,040
Speaker 5: Brown be that person that gets traded again? Like I

2017
01:31:03,439 --> 01:31:05,800
Speaker 5: doubt it, But they're just the team that, like, I

2018
01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:07,479
Speaker 5: don't know what they're gonna do, but they're gonna do something.

2019
01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:09,559
Speaker 3: They're gonna do a lot. I thought you were gonna

2020
01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:12,960
Speaker 3: bring up a J. Brown is the famous trade from

2021
01:31:12,960 --> 01:31:17,320
Speaker 3: the Titans. But he was by all outside reporting and

2022
01:31:17,360 --> 01:31:20,600
Speaker 3: stuff coming an unhappy camper there. And they're trying, I

2023
01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:24,040
Speaker 3: would imagine after the last year ended, Connie, they're trying

2024
01:31:24,040 --> 01:31:26,720
Speaker 3: to change the culture, freshen things up a little bit,

2025
01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:27,919
Speaker 3: put a new code.

2026
01:31:27,720 --> 01:31:28,240
Speaker 2: Of paint on.

2027
01:31:28,479 --> 01:31:30,840
Speaker 7: I think they need more than that.

2028
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:34,200
Speaker 5: Or Smith like he would you know, the Slim Reaper.

2029
01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:36,479
Speaker 5: People would love a little divide mark.

2030
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:39,000
Speaker 3: The Slim Reaper didn't just change the culture like in

2031
01:31:39,040 --> 01:31:39,599
Speaker 3: three weeks.

2032
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:42,320
Speaker 7: Like, no, I didn't even know what that means.

2033
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:43,160
Speaker 2: Trades.

2034
01:31:43,240 --> 01:31:45,600
Speaker 3: Some of the guys that are they believe are contributing

2035
01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:46,799
Speaker 3: to a bad locker room.

2036
01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:50,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, how many games ended with a J. Brown? Like,

2037
01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:51,120
Speaker 2: I don't.

2038
01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:55,000
Speaker 5: Know what I still go back to my like, no

2039
01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:56,519
Speaker 5: one knows, no one knows what happens.

2040
01:31:56,520 --> 01:31:59,880
Speaker 2: Oh, you're right right, things just happened. That show seems

2041
01:31:59,920 --> 01:32:01,360
Speaker 2: to be well beloved.

2042
01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:03,200
Speaker 7: We love Abbit Elementary.

2043
01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:05,439
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, we're having two different conversation.

2044
01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:12,320
Speaker 3: Sorry, sorry, how long this has been. I would love

2045
01:32:12,320 --> 01:32:15,040
Speaker 3: to put a moratorium. And everyone's stressing about how long

2046
01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:15,960
Speaker 3: our podcast is.

2047
01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:17,040
Speaker 2: I didn't say anything.

2048
01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:20,280
Speaker 3: It's if the conversation is good and it's fine.

2049
01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:22,400
Speaker 4: All right, well, then in that case, Bill Belichick and

2050
01:32:22,439 --> 01:32:26,439
Speaker 4: Tom Brady two more people to throw in the season story.

2051
01:32:26,640 --> 01:32:28,200
Speaker 2: Tom Brady actually announced the game.

2052
01:32:28,320 --> 01:32:30,200
Speaker 5: Also, we only have two shows this week, so we're

2053
01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:33,200
Speaker 5: giving the people, you know, little housekeeping. We're going to

2054
01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,880
Speaker 5: be Tuesday Thursday this week, so you know, it's less than.

2055
01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:37,040
Speaker 3: We want to come to us and tell us the

2056
01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:40,360
Speaker 3: podcast is too long. Then we'll have to maybe start talking.

2057
01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:44,080
Speaker 3: I haven't heard anyone people like you change the show.

2058
01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:46,200
Speaker 3: If like a rando from like no, if there was

2059
01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:48,679
Speaker 3: some type of deep call with people saying our show

2060
01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:52,600
Speaker 3: is too long, there's too much honking, we would it

2061
01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:54,240
Speaker 3: would make sense to have an internal conversation.

2062
01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:58,320
Speaker 2: It was hurting our data points, right, I don't sense that.

2063
01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:02,680
Speaker 2: Stop stressing about it. I think I'm just I think

2064
01:33:03,040 --> 01:33:04,000
Speaker 2: it's more concernable.

2065
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:07,080
Speaker 6: That's different when you tell HU you have nowhere to be,

2066
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:10,599
Speaker 6: then it's like, then there's no railings on what could

2067
01:33:10,600 --> 01:33:11,640
Speaker 6: happen where you got to go?

2068
01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:13,680
Speaker 2: I got all sorts of places to be. This is

2069
01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:15,280
Speaker 2: the only safe place. No, it's not.

2070
01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:17,200
Speaker 7: It's Noah's Ark, it's Wes's Ark.

2071
01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:21,080
Speaker 3: Well, people eventually got off nos Ark. It didn't just

2072
01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:22,840
Speaker 3: die on the ship and it's sunk. They got off

2073
01:33:22,840 --> 01:33:27,000
Speaker 3: the ship and started a new civilization according to the theories,

2074
01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:29,519
Speaker 3: according to the theories, like, I'm not you know.

2075
01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:30,920
Speaker 7: David for the theology.

2076
01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:36,599
Speaker 3: Anything anything in terms of footage from the newsroom about

2077
01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:39,520
Speaker 3: the missing Super Bowl ticket.

2078
01:33:39,720 --> 01:33:41,000
Speaker 2: Nothing at the moment.

2079
01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:44,760
Speaker 8: I've heard that the water leaking from the ceiling may

2080
01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:45,799
Speaker 8: have flowed the process.

2081
01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:48,439
Speaker 2: I since you are very earnestly investigating that.

2082
01:33:48,520 --> 01:33:50,719
Speaker 5: I'm digging through emails a big funk.

2083
01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:53,760
Speaker 3: Any updates on how many free agents will be on

2084
01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:56,840
Speaker 3: marketized right up? Which I'm saying one hundred and fifty

2085
01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:59,120
Speaker 3: words each on the blurbs. Oh, at least we'll just

2086
01:33:59,160 --> 01:34:01,759
Speaker 3: split it up, teck Connie in there a little bit, sure,

2087
01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:03,320
Speaker 3: get Connie ou about one hundred blurbs.

2088
01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:07,479
Speaker 13: After extensive research, I've realized I'm not that good at math,

2089
01:34:08,160 --> 01:34:09,800
Speaker 13: and so it's gonna take me a little while longer.

2090
01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:12,160
Speaker 13: I'd say upwards to three hundred plus free agents. I've

2091
01:34:12,200 --> 01:34:14,080
Speaker 13: seen like five lists that are like top two hundred

2092
01:34:14,080 --> 01:34:15,280
Speaker 13: free agents.

2093
01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:17,280
Speaker 5: That doesn't help you. You need to find out all

2094
01:34:17,320 --> 01:34:17,639
Speaker 5: of them.

2095
01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:20,840
Speaker 2: That doesn't scare us. They're picking and choosing, all right, bunk,

2096
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:21,960
Speaker 2: Are you around on Thursday.

2097
01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:23,879
Speaker 3: I am all right, we have to have a conversation,

2098
01:34:24,880 --> 01:34:28,000
Speaker 3: but all conversations can only be had on microphone, So

2099
01:34:28,160 --> 01:34:31,320
Speaker 3: until then, naturally we say goodbye. We say goodbye to

2100
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:31,839
Speaker 3: the audience.

2101
01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:33,599
Speaker 7: We didn't even get to hear about the week together.

2102
01:34:35,640 --> 01:34:37,040
Speaker 7: Maybe next Thursday.

2103
01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:42,080
Speaker 3: Come back Thursday, big, big funk conversation. Also Greg and

2104
01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:46,760
Speaker 3: Mark private time, no microphones, no, no needed.

2105
01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:51,560
Speaker 2: We'll dig in. Connie, you've said it all. There's a

2106
01:34:51,680 --> 01:34:57,200
Speaker 2: drop until Thursday. Heed the call. You good to be back.
