1
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: Is the man who says that he owned Twitter. If

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: you like that, I love that. You make me so happy.

3
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: Pete Prisco, CBS Sports, thank you for taking time. How

4
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: are you guys? Always better when you're around? I own Twitter?

5
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: You own Twitter? You know what that is? That's for

6
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: all the people that I block. You know, I block

7
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: so many people. I have a stick. Now it's become

8
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: I said, out too where I'll make a crack and

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: say see you. I actually had a reverend gout on

10
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,919
Speaker 1: the one day and and I tweeted back at him.

11
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: I said, Reverend, I know where you're not getting anything

12
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: in the collection plate this week. I said, but I

13
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: know what you are getting a block see you? And

14
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: I blocked him. I blocked a reverend. Can you say

15
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: that to a reverend? Sure you can. He came at me,

16
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: so I came right back at him. He doesn't even

17
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: take it off a minister. Hey, I was in line

18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: in Fort Lauderdale, coup flying up here, and uh, a

19
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: rabbi tried to cut the line and I got him

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: back on away. I don't care. You know, a man

21
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: of the cloth, not man of cloth. Whatever you are,

22
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: you gotta have a number. You can't cut, be courteous.

23
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: You can't cut right, that's rude. All right, So what's

24
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: the story of this offseason in the NFL? What's grabbing

25
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: Pete Prisco right now? What is the story? Boy? Just

26
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: right off the bat, Antonio Brown, I mean the Steelers

27
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 1: mess because you gotta because it's not the Steelers. You

28
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: got it. Ever happens to them. Levion Bell in there,

29
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: you gotta throw in, Antonio Brown, you gotta throw in

30
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: the complaints about Roethlisberger. Somebody's ultimately responsible for all of it.

31
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: So I got some of that goes to Mike Tomlin.

32
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it's been a mess. You're right, it doesn't

33
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: happen to the Steelers. That doesn't happen to the Steelers,

34
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: and it's not a good look. They went from a

35
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: team in January of twenty eighteen playing a playoff game

36
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: with those three on the field. When they kick it off,

37
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: they're not gonna have it two of them. That's pretty

38
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: pretty incredible when you think about it, and I think

39
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: going even further, they were seven two and one in

40
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: total control of that division and then didn't even make

41
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Yeah, it's look, it's a bad situation. I'd

42
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: get rid of Antonio Brown. I think they're doing the

43
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: right thing. He was he didn't show up, think about it.

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: He went a wall for a game. If you're on

45
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: that team, you don't want him around. So the question becomes,

46
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 1: what do you get for him? I think they're gonna

47
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: end up getting a three for him. I don't think

48
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna have anything more than that. He's thirty one

49
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: years old. This summer his yards per catch went from

50
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: fifteen down to twelve something. I think twelve five or something.

51
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: That's a big drop, right, So I'm concerned about that,

52
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: and he wants more money and he quit. So, oh,

53
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: by the way, you want to give up a first

54
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 1: round pick for him? I wouldn't do that. A three.

55
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,119
Speaker 1: I give up a three. Who gives up the three?

56
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: That's a good question. I think if the Colts should

57
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: give up the Sea. Yeah. I've been pushing the Colts

58
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: because you have to go to a team where the

59
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: quarterback is established and they have two two right, and

60
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: the quarterback is established, right, he's got to be able

61
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: to handle him. Andrew Luck could handle him, but he

62
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,399
Speaker 1: can't go to the Jets because Sam Darnold's not ready

63
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: to handle him. Yet he can't go to Buffalo because

64
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's not ready to handle him yet. We wonder

65
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: if Garoppolo could handle him yet we don't know. You know,

66
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: Andrew luck can handle him, and they need another weapon

67
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: to go with them. Think about their weapons. They got

68
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton, not a lot else, but don't you

69
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: Steelers don't care. But San Francisco is a place he

70
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 1: wants to go, or he acts like he wants to go.

71
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: They act, I mean there's some feeling. I guess the

72
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: players act like they want him. I don't know what

73
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: the interest is on the other but I mean going somewhere.

74
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: If I'm a team, I think I want to make

75
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: sure he wants to play for me, because you're looking

76
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: at because he wants more money too, So that's it. Yeah,

77
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: you know he's squawking about guaranteed money. Yeah. Yeah, So

78
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: you trade for him and you pay him. That's a

79
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: risky proposition for a guy at that age. So I

80
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: think the market's gonna be a lot softer for him

81
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: than he thinks it's gonna be, and the Steelers think

82
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be. But I also think it's gonna be

83
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: a lot often for Levion Bell. I don't think he's

84
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: coming close to getting the money he left on the table. Wow.

85
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: I think you're probably right because the trouble with it

86
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: right now is at this point everybody is jumping back

87
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: from running backs. They're saying, let's see what's in free agency,

88
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: because you can always thrift store shop for a running

89
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: back in three in free agency, and you can do

90
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 1: it in the draft too. There's so many players, and

91
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: you've said it consistently. I credit you every time it's

92
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: day three. It's day three of the draft, because you

93
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: can find that guy who's the difference. Alvin Kamara was

94
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: the third round pick, Kareem Hunt was a third round

95
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 1: pick before his mestep, and so you look at the rams. CJ.

96
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: Anderson in the postseason was every bit as good as

97
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley. Now there's some issue as to what was

98
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: wrong with Todd Gurley. I've heard it was mental, but

99
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 1: people still insist at his knee isn't right all the

100
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: way back. But whatever the case, c J. Anderson was

101
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: every bit as effective as he was. They picked him

102
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: up off the scrap heap. So I think you can't

103
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: find a running back, which is why I don't think

104
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: Bell is gonna get the contract he thinks he's getting.

105
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: Is there someone in free agency who is not a

106
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: former stealer that you're excited about watching play out? Well,

107
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: I think defensively, these guys are all gonna get tagged.

108
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: I would love to see some of them hit the market.

109
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: But I think DeMarcus Lawrence is gonna get tagged. I

110
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: think Frank Clark's gonna get tagged. Uh, you know a

111
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: couple of the other class, Clowney. They're all gonna get tagged,

112
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: so that takes those guys off the market. The problem

113
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: is the offensive class isn't great on the either side

114
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: of the ball. But one guy that I am intrigued

115
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: by is Tyrell Williams. That's my guy from the Chargers,

116
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: the Chargers guy, and if I were the Titans, I

117
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: would look at him. But he's gonna be expensive. He's

118
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 1: gonna get and talking to people here and the personnel

119
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: people in GMS, they all think he's gonna be very expensive.

120
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: Se I like him because he's a deep ball threat.

121
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: He makes things happen. He has good size, twenty six,

122
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 1: he's young, just turned twenty seven last week. I like

123
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 1: his size. I like his power. I don't think he's

124
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: used up, and he averaged He's averaged over fifteen yards

125
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: per catching his career. He had seven touchdowns I think

126
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: last year on forty something catches. He's a productive player.

127
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: And when Keenan Allen was out, he put up big

128
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: numbers there. So I think he's one of those I

129
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: always caught. Tom Coffin told me this a long time ago.

130
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: He said, when you're looking free agents, he always looked

131
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: for the twenty six year old, twenty seven year old

132
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: because those as a guy's going that way, not going

133
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,679
Speaker 1: that way. But you're gonna have to pay over retail

134
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: for him, of course. But you know there's a lot

135
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: of slot receivers in this market too. If you I

136
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: think he's gonna get paid. I think he's a sneaky one.

137
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: I think Crowder is a little sneaky one in Washington.

138
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 1: I think um Beasley's gonna be get some play on

139
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: the market. Tate, Tate's gonna get some play on the market.

140
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: So I think there's gonna be some slot slot receivers available.

141
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: So if you want an outside receiver, you're gonna bid

142
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: against everybody who does. For Tyrone Williams Man, What interest

143
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: you in the draft? Who interest you in the draft? Well,

144
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray interest everybody. And I have a hard time

145
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: wrapping my mind around a five foot nine quarterback. I

146
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: really do it. It's something for me that I don't

147
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: believe in. I've never believed in. But you know what,

148
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: I like watching this tape. I'm intrigued by him. And

149
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: I got to do more work on him, but I

150
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: am intrigued by him. The kid can make the throws.

151
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: He wasn't asked to go through a lot of progressions

152
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: at Oklahoma. He played you know, and I hear only

153
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: stats where he only had five passes batted down. He

154
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: played behind a good offensive line. You know where Daniel

155
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: Jones had a bunch of passes knocked down to dukid

156
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: a bad offensive line. He played Clemson. Clemson's defensive line

157
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: is four guys, three of them are gonna be in

158
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: you know, first round picks possibly, So I think you

159
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: have to you know, those stats can be construed a

160
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: little bit whatever way you want to take him. But

161
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: I am intrigued by him. I probably as if I

162
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: was a general manager, I don't know that I would

163
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: stake my career to a five ft nine hundred ninety

164
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: pound quarterback. But I am intrigued by him. What does

165
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: he need to do at the combine to increase his

166
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: stock other than grow a couple inches? Yeah, I don't

167
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: and I don't know if well, you know, they do

168
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: make your hands grow at the combine, you know that

169
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: though you Yeah, like Drew Locke's hand at Mobile was

170
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: ninety nine and he will measure nine in a quarter here.

171
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: You watch because what they do is they go through

172
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: these there's techniques for the quarterbacks to learn how to

173
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: stretch their hand and Sam Darnold did it last year

174
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: and they make their hand bigger so they measure better.

175
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: But that was part of the And I know bringing

176
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: up Russell Wilson around you is I've come off. I

177
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: actually he was on our set, gave some love to

178
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: our set at the super Bowl, and I sat down,

179
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: I said, look, I gotta eat some crow on you.

180
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: You've you've proved me wrong. But part of the the

181
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: appeal of him, even though he's five ten and three

182
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: quarters is he has a massive ten ten and a

183
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: half I hate yeah, and he and he throws over

184
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: the top and so a lot of you know that

185
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: was something that a lot of people thought, Okay, well

186
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: that you know, that gives him a chance to play

187
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: taller and maybe Murray Murray. There's some concern about Murray's hands.

188
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: He's being small, so it'll be interesting. He's kind of

189
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: convinced people too when he sits with him that he

190
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,719
Speaker 1: can be that guy because he came you saw the

191
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: interviews of the Super Bowl. He came across poorly for

192
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: whatever reason. And I hear, he's not an alpha dog,

193
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: and you want your quarterback kind of to be an

194
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 1: alpha dog. Now you guys have a quarterback who's not

195
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 1: really an alpha dog, and it kind of works. So

196
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 1: sometimes you can get away from that, but I think

197
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: most of the time you want that guy. I gotta

198
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: give zambo. When I saw Drew Lockett mobile, I said

199
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 1: something about his hands and I said, you know, you

200
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: got your hands are gonna become a story. You know that, right,

201
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 1: And he goes, yeah, yeah, I know, I get it.

202
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: I get it, and he's walking away. He turned back

203
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: to him and he went, Dan Marino had small hands.

204
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:41,119
Speaker 1: That's a swagger. That's a swagger. That's a cocky squagger.

205
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: Arrogant kid who plays the quarterback position. I want to

206
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: see more of that from Kyler Murray. I want him

207
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: to walk in and say I'm gonna own this league.

208
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: I don't care how tall I am. Do you like

209
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones from Dude? I do? I do. I don't

210
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: love him, but I do like him again. Took a

211
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: beating at Duke, played behind a bad offensive line. That's injuries.

212
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: He you know, came back from the injury in a

213
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, which tells you something about the kid.

214
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: And he's been tutored by Cutcliffe, and Cutcliffe is one

215
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: of the best. He has a little Eli Manning about him,

216
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: and you know people will kill you for Eli Manning

217
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: and say he's not very good. Guy. Won two Super

218
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: Bowls and up until Brady did, he was the only

219
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: quarterback who came from behind in the fourth quarter in

220
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: two Super Bowls to win. So for me, I do

221
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: like Daniel Jones. I think it'll be Haskins will go first,

222
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: then probably Murray, then Lock and then probably Jones. I

223
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: think though, and I don't know if Jones will go

224
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the first round, somebody might go

225
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,959
Speaker 1: back in and try and get him, or if he

226
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: goes in the second round Amy's and Missouri Tigers. So

227
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: she loves Drew Locke. And but here's my only question

228
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: with Haskins and why I might like Lock over Haskins.

229
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: I know Haskins is sixty three to thirty through fifty

230
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: touchdown passes. His team he started one year. His team

231
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: was considerably better than everybody they played all year. Now,

232
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: to his credit, they won every game but one. I've

233
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: never seen him when he played on the lesser team

234
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: or an equal team. It's true. And he only played

235
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: the one year, right. Murray only played one year too,

236
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,719
Speaker 1: so you can you know if you ping him, you

237
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: gotta ping both of them for that agree. I do

238
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: like Locke, and I like the way he throws the football,

239
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: and he had some bad teams at Missouri, as you know.

240
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: And I mean like we went to Florida last year

241
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: and threw the ball around and look good. And for me,

242
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, he learned a new offense last year too.

243
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: That was when you play go into your year and

244
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: you got to learn another offense. That's a tough one.

245
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: A kid, he kind of took a slow approach to it,

246
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: and he adapted to it as a season moved along.

247
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 1: I like him too. Dudley did a good job with him. Yes,

248
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: I think they're Duley is a good coach. I think

249
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: they're Dully did a good job with him. And you

250
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: know Denver's rumored to like him a lot. And you

251
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: know Elway likes the quarterback who can stand in there

252
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: and make the throws. So it'll be interesting if they

253
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: pulled the trigger in or that where they are at

254
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: once now that they signed Joe Flacco, it'd be interesting

255
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: to see what they do there. How interested are you

256
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 1: to see how things change based on free agency? You

257
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: just listed off the guys that you think are gonna

258
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: go first. How do they have an impact? Is free agency?

259
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: And that's a very good question because we get asked

260
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 1: to do these mock drafts every two weeks and I

261
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: just always go, oh, how can we know? I mean,

262
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: I'll give you an example, and Jacksonville in your division,

263
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: what are they going to do at number seven? Well,

264
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: if they signed Nick Foles, they're not going to draft

265
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: a quarterback, no matter what, right you wouldn't think. I mean,

266
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 1: they still could, but just depends on that contract. If

267
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: it's just you know, three year deal for fifty five

268
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: million or something, they're not going to sign a quarter

269
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: the draft a quarterbacks, you've gotta get pieces around them.

270
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: So it's hard to do these mock drafts until you

271
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: know where guys are slotting in a free agency and

272
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: you know who's gonna go where and who fills a

273
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 1: hole that you don't have to fill in the draft.

274
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: So that it is, it's tough to get a gauge

275
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: on the draft until you understand who's going wearing free agency.

276
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: What do you think about these guys who've had off

277
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: the field issues, trouble with the law, who are not

278
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: allowed to be brought to the combine for full viewing

279
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: if you will, And they ended up resending some of

280
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: that letting them come from medical And what's Pete Prisco?

281
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: That's just dumb. I mean, if you're gonna draft him

282
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: into the league, they should be able to come to

283
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: the combine. It's okay to draft him into your league,

284
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: but you can't let him go to the combine. Who's

285
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: that hurting? All that hurts is them is themselves. They

286
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: can't get the full evaluation right, So that's a bad rule.

287
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 1: They'll change that eventually, do you think, so? Yeah? I do.

288
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: What about the Simmons kid, from Mississippi State. GUI. If

289
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: he hadn't got hurt, he might have been a top

290
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: ten pick, top five pick. So you probably have a

291
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: chance to get him back Thanksgiving somewhere in there. From

292
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: the knee. He obviously has the off the field thing.

293
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 1: Do you think Jeffrey Simmons from Mississippi State still goes

294
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: in the first round? Yes, and you know would be

295
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: this would be a great pick. The New England Patriots

296
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: pick him at thirty two, typical, they can wait. They

297
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 1: got the good team. He's back by the time they

298
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: make their playoff push next year, he's in the rotation scene.

299
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: What they've got to it's in terms of picks, they

300
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: got a ton of them. This is hilarious. I mean

301
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: it just you see this every year and you think

302
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: it's all completely stacked against you. They have thirty two,

303
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: fifty six, sixty four, seventy three, ninety seven, and one

304
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: oh one. So they have six in the first one

305
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: oh one, and then they have one thirty four, two

306
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 1: o five, two, thirty nine, two forty three, two forty six,

307
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: two fifty two, And I mean, he those guys probably

308
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: aren't gonna make the team, but he'll find in those

309
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: last four picks, he'll find somebody. It's just like the

310
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: Jones kid that ended up playing at the end of

311
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 1: the year corner he was. He was a scratch early

312
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: in the season, and by the end of the season

313
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: they got him ready to become a contributor. That's what

314
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: he does. It's amazing. And you know, some people around

315
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: the league think Belichick actually has more fun now with

316
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: the offseason slash draft process than he does coaching. That's

317
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: how much he loves this. He loves the draft process.

318
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: Two ninety two and one thirty four. Can you make

319
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: a case that he's the greatest coach in NFL history? Oh,

320
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: he is the greatest coach in NFL history. He is.

321
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: He is definitive. The man who owns Twitter says he's

322
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: the greatest coach in NFL. How do you make that? Just? Okay,

323
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: let's We've got the Lombardies, the hallis Lambeau, Paul Brown,

324
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: all of the Walls, sh Landry, all of these figures.

325
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: How does in Pete Priscoe's mind, does Bill Belichick separate

326
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: himself because he's winning titles in an era of free agency.

327
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 1: He's doing it. Over the course of eighteen nineteen years

328
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: with the only constant being him and Brady. Those are

329
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: the only two constants. Everybody else, the Steelers, Chuck don't

330
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: kept everybody. The Packers kept everybody. They didn't have free agency.

331
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: The Browns, the Dynasty Browns and Paul Brown, they kept everybody.

332
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: This guy does it with the players turning over over

333
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: and over again. That's why he's the greatest coach. And

334
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: there are some people when I say the same thing,

335
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: they look at me like I have six heads. And

336
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: I said, I'm telling you, I'm not meaning to demean

337
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: those men and the innovation and what they did, but

338
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: this is we are seeing history and you don't have

339
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: to like them. You don't. And I know everybody's getting,

340
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: you know, a chuckle at what's happening to the owner

341
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: right now. I get it, but you have to respect

342
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: what's happening, no question about it. And look, you can

343
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: everybody gets patriot fatigue, but at some point you got

344
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: to step back and realize what we're watching here and

345
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: respect it. It's unbelievable what they and every year where

346
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: every couple of years they bury them. They're done. They

347
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: buried him last year Jacksonville blew them beat him in Jacksonville.

348
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: They buried them. They're done, And I said, watch what

349
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: they do to get ready for December and then January,

350
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: and watch what they do to get into Super Bowl.

351
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: And that's what they do every year. Well, and I

352
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 1: think what's really impressive is they left our place after

353
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: week ten and that a week eleven, Titans took them apart. Ye,

354
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: I mean took them to school like you wouldn't believe.

355
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: And you said, this is not as good a team

356
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: and they didn't play out the regular season. Well, I

357
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: think this one was almost more of a credit to

358
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: Brady and Belichick because they are not head and shoulders

359
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: above everybody. This was Belichick's best coaching job in my mind.

360
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: Some people will say the first one was. I think

361
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: this one was. That team was a mess. It was

362
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: a message and you guys saw it firsthand, but it

363
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: was just a mess all the way around. Who was

364
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: going to play in the secondary? They had issues over there,

365
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: who was going to become the guys up front? They

366
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: rotate so many guys up front and by the end

367
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,439
Speaker 1: and then they had to fight to the end. They

368
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: lost Gordon, you know, they couldn't stretch the field early

369
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: and then still couldn't stretch the field. When he was gone.

370
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 1: Gronk was a shelve himself for most of the season.

371
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: This was his best coaching Well it was funny too,

372
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: because what really impressed me about them on the day

373
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 1: the Titans beat him up was he shut it down

374
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: with seven minutes to go. He took Brady out of

375
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: the game. So the game ends, they were out of

376
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: there faster than any team I had ever seen leave

377
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 1: the stadium. And I don't think it's because they were

378
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 1: bitter or he was just like he said, bad day.

379
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: We're all this is one game. We're on decent Sinati

380
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: so to speak. That on to Cincinnati attitude that he

381
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 1: has about Yeah, Okay, we lost a ball game. This

382
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: is not it. This doesn't break us, this doesn't make

383
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: the Titans. It's one game. And that's the greatness of

384
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: him him. Yeah and even a half. He can do

385
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: that in a half. Yeah, if that was a bad half,

386
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: he gree groups and he comes back. And that's that's

387
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 1: the greatness of Bill bet That's pro football at its best.

388
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: That's that's why he's the best. But what's interesting to

389
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: me is that there are so many people from his

390
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: staff or people who he's touched who have not been

391
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: able to have that same success. There haven't been a

392
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: ton of people who have emulated what he has been able.

393
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: And here's the problem. They all try to be him.

394
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: Be who you are. They all go there they I

395
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 1: already hear Brian Flores is telling us, this is his

396
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: assistant coaches. If I catch you talking to people you're

397
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 1: in trouble. It's the same thing. And I go back

398
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: to a guy off back when Coughlin staff, Kevin Jilbride

399
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: became the head coach of the Chargers, and he tried

400
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 1: to be Tom. That's not who he was. They all

401
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: try to be the exactly like him. Matt Patricia is

402
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: trying to be him. You can't be him. There's only

403
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: one Bill Belichick, So be who you are. And that's

404
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: why they don't don't succeed. You know. It's funny though,

405
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: in our situation with Vrabel, and of course Vrabel's not

406
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 1: a former assistant, he's a former player. He is totally

407
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: not trying to be him, correct, he is. He is

408
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel right now. There are some things that the

409
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: Titans do that you can see Patriot influence. But he

410
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: does not want to. I mean, he has personality there's

411
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 1: I mean, if you work in his building, you're going

412
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: to get a hassle from him all the time. He

413
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: knows everybody's name. It's not saying Bill Bill walks by

414
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: people in the building, right, He wouldn't even acknowledge people

415
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: in the building. Players sometimes wouldn't even acknowledge him. So, yeah,

416
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: and Mike is different than that. Yeah, Mike's got that

417
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 1: curmudgeonly personality totally. Yeah. I mean he's he is positively

418
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: grumpy doing by the way. So I'm gonna say, well,

419
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: but after we would win a game, it was harder

420
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: to do his Monday night coaches show with him than

421
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:08,239
Speaker 1: after losing, because he didn't want to say too much, right,

422
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: you know, he didn't want to be because he is

423
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 1: a he's crusty. Yeah, he's crusty. That's a good description

424
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: to him. But you have to but he will tell

425
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: you that's that's him. Be who you are, right, and

426
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: the other guys they all try to be him. I

427
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: mean Patricia is a perfect example. Is you know, it's

428
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: freezing outside and he's practicing outside when they have an

429
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: indoor bubble. Why because he wants to try and be

430
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: toughen him up and be like him. You can't be

431
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: like that. You gotta be who you are. I think

432
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel does the best job of that. Yes, yeah,

433
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: and with his staff as well, I mean keeping the

434
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: staff to you know, he didn't have a massive turnover.

435
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 1: He didn't feel like he had to fire eighteen people

436
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: just to show how. You know, it's like, you know,

437
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: we did okay, we could have done better. We had

438
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 1: some things go wrong, and we'll fix it. Here's a

439
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: question I had for you to go. Was lafloora want

440
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: to get fired if he'd stayed? No, gosh, no, no, no,

441
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: And that was making its way through the league a

442
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: little bit. No chance, I don't think any chance, because

443
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: where Matt impressed Mike, and you know, Matt was not

444
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: somebody who had any tie to Mike. Right, he was

445
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 1: gonna hire Sean Day, yes from Stay, and when that

446
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,640
Speaker 1: didn't work out, they looked at a couple other things,

447
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 1: and then Lafleur had impressed Ownership and John Robinson so

448
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: much in the process that they said, would you look

449
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: at this guy? And Mike said, well, I don't know

450
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: Matt Lafleur, but I'll definitely check in and the references

451
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: checked out. They got together and they liked one another.

452
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: And what was really impressive is Matt is like Mike.

453
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: Mike has the Patriots philosophy in that, let's try to

454
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: do what we need to do to win the game.

455
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: Matt wasn't about I've got a throw for four hundred yards.

456
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: I mean, you know Friday, he loses one of his

457
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: tackles and they're getting ready to play Houston and we

458
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: had to bring a guy from the practice squad to

459
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: block JJ Watt and they put in the wildcat for

460
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. That's a Patriot type thing, right, And that's

461
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: what Mike liked about Matt Lafloor. Right now, he was

462
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 1: ready to Matt Lafleur looked at times like he had

463
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 1: aged ten years. He loses his tight end, he loses tackles,

464
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 1: his quarterback, sir. But what impressed everybody in the building

465
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: about him was he just kept sort of finding ways

466
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: to he could mcgiver anything. Yeah. Well, I mean like

467
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: when they beat was it Houston earlier this year? Yeah,

468
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: that was yeah, it should have never happened. See, And

469
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: but that that's the rumor that was going around That's

470
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: why I wanted to ask somebody would know that I

471
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: didn't ye at all. No, I mean, I think the

472
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: impression was that he had done a really nice job

473
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: with sort of a mess and that the team, I mean,

474
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: that was a ball club that by all rights had

475
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: no business being within a touchdown of the playoffs in

476
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter of the last game of the season.

477
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: Yeah correct, I mean, and for that whole coaching staff,

478
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 1: for it to be the first year that they're together,

479
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: Matt Laflours knew at what he's doing and calling plays

480
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 1: all that them within the first three weeks of the season.

481
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: You lose your top tight end, you yeah, your quarterback

482
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 1: goes down, you're you have a wide receiver quit, you

483
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: have yours, both tackles are out. It was just a

484
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: laundry list of crazy things that happened. And they just

485
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,199
Speaker 1: kept going and kept going, and no matter what hit them,

486
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: they could adjust. They always played to that're tough. Matt

487
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: Laflour is really good to be a good head coach.

488
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 1: I'm curious. I can't wait to see it, because Aaron

489
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: Rodgers can be tough to work with well, and Matt

490
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: Lafleur can be tough, which is why I think it's

491
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: gonna work. I think their relationship is going to be

492
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 1: very positive from the standpoint that I think they're gonna

493
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: challenge one another, but in the end, I think he's

494
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,119
Speaker 1: going to give and us see if Amy agrees. I

495
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: think he's gonna give Aaron Rodgers what he needs and

496
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: what he I think he will listen to him. I

497
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: don't think he's gonna cave in to him. I think

498
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: he's going to meet him in the middle. Yep, I

499
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: absolutely agree with you. I think that they are going

500
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: to be a good collaboration. I think that he did.

501
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: Matt Laflour does a really good job of listening to

502
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: players input, taking what they have to say. But he's

503
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: also not afraid to stand up to them. He's also

504
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: not afraid to hold his ground a little bit. Seeing

505
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: Rodgers needs that. Yeah, Rogers needs that in the worst way.

506
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: And Mike McCarthy and Rodgers had that relationship for a

507
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: long time and they kind of fraid at the end.

508
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 1: Where do you think it went wrong? Well, they wouldn't

509
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: change with the times, and I didn't know this. They

510
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: ran iso routes, they don't run bunches and picks and

511
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: jet sweep motion. It's a very predictable offense, has been

512
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,239
Speaker 1: for a long time. When the receivers outside, he can win.

513
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,439
Speaker 1: It can work. If you don't have the receivers outside,

514
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 1: he can win, it can But Greg Jennings told me

515
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 1: to Super Bowl, I've never heard this before that the

516
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: reason they don't do all the bunches and picks and

517
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,959
Speaker 1: rubs because Rogers doesn't like it. He likes to come

518
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage and have two guys over

519
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,360
Speaker 1: there and one guy over there and just I try

520
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: and identify and go from there. He doesn't. He doesn't

521
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: like it, So that's why they didn't do it. I

522
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: never knew that, which is interesting because that means he's

523
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: stubborn and he wants things his way. So it'll be

524
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: interesting to see if the floor can kind of get

525
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: some of that out of him. He'll work it. Yeah,

526
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: I think so. But can you I'm asking more because

527
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 1: I don't know can you cater an offense that much

528
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: to a quarterback? I mean, there's some things that you

529
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: just have to adjust. Yeah, correct, you can, but I

530
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: think the way the game is played nowadays, you have

531
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: to have all those formations and bunches and picks and

532
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: rubs and put the pressure on the defense. If it's

533
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: just two over here, one over here, and these guys

534
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 1: run their ISO routes and no picks or no crossings

535
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: or nothing, it's easy to defend. Yeah. I mean, after

536
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: a while, I could pick out. And that's why Rogers.

537
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: You see him a lot of times. He gets in

538
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: back in the pocket, and all of a sudden he's

539
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 1: getting out of there. And some of his best players

540
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 1: are made creatively outside the pocket because he doesn't. Nobody

541
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 1: gets open, so he's got to go creatively, get outside

542
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: the pocket. Pete Prisco, what happened in Jacksonville last year?

543
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: They read their press clippings, They got full of themselves.

544
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: Ego got in the way. They got a lot of

545
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: cocky guys in there that influenced a lot of bad

546
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: guys in the wrong direction. Other guys in the wrong direction.

547
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: It just fell apart. And you know, certain guys in

548
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,399
Speaker 1: there that they should have been listening to, they didn't

549
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: listen to, like Clais Campbell, and they listened to other guys.

550
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournett didn't put the work in, was late for

551
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: rehab sessions, didn't get in shape, didn't understand the playbook,

552
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 1: and then you had other guys following him on the

553
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. He had other veterans like

554
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: Kelvin Smith, I've heard, kind of leading guys in the

555
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: wrong direction, and it just fell apart. And when you know,

556
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: people think the defense was bad last year, they were

557
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: still in a top ten. Yeah, but they weren't as dominant.

558
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 1: They didn't take the ball away, they didn't get sacks,

559
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: and when it started bleeding over from the offense that

560
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 1: had so many injuries. Look, if you play and Bortles

561
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: has to win a game for you're not winning. If

562
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: he can manage the game, you wouldn't won, which is

563
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: what they did the year before. But they lost the

564
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 1: left tackle early in the season, they lost the left

565
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: guard middle of the season, they lost their center. At

566
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: the end of the season, they lost the right tackle.

567
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: Was missed time. They lost down three running before Net

568
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: missed a ton of time starting with week one when

569
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 1: he got hurt and he wasn't in shape. They lost Grant,

570
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: who became a weapon in the passing game. So they

571
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: had Marquis Lee got hurt in training camp. Their tight ends.

572
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: They were down to two guys they picked up off

573
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: the scrap heap. They had no weapons, and when when

574
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: Bortles is putting that situation no chance to succeed, and

575
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: then he started complaining, He started hit seeing guys bitching

576
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 1: and moaning about things. What do they have to do

577
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: to get back on track? They got to learn to

578
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: play offense. With the times, you can't just line up

579
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 1: and play power football anymore. You just can't. They got

580
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: to throw the football. So whether that means Nick Foles,

581
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't do that. I probably draft a quarterback,

582
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: but I think they might go in that direction. Then

583
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: you gotta build the offense around them. They're still gonna

584
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: be really good on the church. They're gonna get rid

585
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,399
Speaker 1: of guys now. Malik Jackson's gone. I think Deshan Gibson

586
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 1: might be gone for cap reasons. You know, Carlos High

587
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 1: was a bad move. He'll be gone. But they still

588
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: have talent on defense within Gagway and Ramsey and boy

589
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: Jack and so I think they'll be fine on defense.

590
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: They just got to get the offense going. If they

591
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: do that, they'll be in the mix again in the division.

592
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: All those teams can win that division, all of them yeah.

593
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: If they get a quarterback Jacksonville, who who fits Bortles?

594
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: What does he do? He's a backup the rest of

595
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: his career, think so, I do. Wow, And I like

596
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: the kid. In fact, I love the kid. He's a

597
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: great kid. But I think he's a backup. I think

598
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: see and he may have a nice career as a

599
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 1: backup because in a three to four game stretch, he's

600
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: exactly what you want. What happened last year, and it's

601
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 1: been a problem for him for a long time, is

602
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: when things go bad, he goes off the ledge. There's

603
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: no getting him back from it. You know. The great

604
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: quarterbacks have bad moments and then they get back up

605
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: and they regroup. Whether it's a bad game or a

606
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: bad half or whatever. He can't get away from it.

607
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: He just he goes way off the ledge. And that's

608
