1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL Podcast tweets too much about gold 2 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. 3 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: My name is Dan Handons. I come to you from 4 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 1: a virtual room, virtual whool room, filled with some heroes, 5 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, Greg Rosenthal and sitting in on the show today. 6 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: He is the star of the acclaimed instant hit micro 7 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 1: Seg Money on Money, Matt Money Smith. How's everybody doing 8 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: doing well? Greg? Greg scrunched his face when I read. 9 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 1: When I read the script, tweets too much about golf, 10 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: and I feel like I'm responsible, like for the content 11 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: which I didn't that are put in front of me. 12 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: I didn't quite get it, because you know, none of us, 13 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: none of us tweet about golf, were too smart for that. 14 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: Maybe that's the irony packed inside the what is Wait? 15 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: What was that little dig there? Greg? You're too smart 16 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: to tweet about golf. Yeah, it's a boring It's a 17 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: boring spectator sport, and tweeting about it would be even 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: more boring. I think we all share that. I thought 19 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: maybe it was a commentary on our colleague Adam Rank, 20 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: who tweets a lot about golf these days, or at 21 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: least his Instagram is is there's a lot of golf 22 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: and and I, as a golfer, used to be an 23 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: avid golfer. Um would politely disagree with Greg. I do 24 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: find it to be an exciting spectator sport, Um, But 25 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: I know I'm in I'm in a gross minority. I 26 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 1: used to know it's popular, it's popular. I used to play. 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: I worked at multiple golf courses as a child. Um, 28 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: and I love to play and nothing like uh, you know, 29 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 1: hitt and play nine holes after you finish your shift. 30 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: But it's a tough, tough like you bring that up 31 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: a lot. You have to make Greg like you are 32 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: allowed to beg on golf because when you were fourteen 33 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: you were a caddie one, so you use that a 34 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,559 Speaker 1: lot as your I played, but I played on stop, 35 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: played on stop, so I was like twenty one or so. 36 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: But yeah, at a certain point you got to decide, Um, 37 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: is that what we're your job? You said, you said jobs. 38 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: So what were the different jobs at the golf course 39 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: you had? Well, you have to run the front desk, 40 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: you know when when people come in, and then you 41 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: have to wash bags. Um, you know when people return 42 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: with the bags, you have to return the golf carts. Um. 43 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: One kid once drove a golf cart into the pool there. 44 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: He got fired. He got fired for that. And then 45 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: sometimes if it's raining, you have to sit at the 46 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: bottom of the hill and drive guys up the hill 47 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: because they don't want to walk in the rain up 48 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: the hill. I mean country club, right, and Greg, so 49 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: you you retired essentially at twenty one? Did you mature 50 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: out of the sport? I mean, people spend their lives 51 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: trying to mass I moved to New York. If you're 52 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: living New York and you want to play golf, it's 53 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: got to be like a huge priority in your life. 54 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: You gotta love it so much.

That's what we 79 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: don't know about. Intervention. Would suggest that I'm like doing 80 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: it on purpose, but it's but you know, and Matt 81 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: money Smith was nice enough to send some suggestions along 82 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: by text, which I'm um following up on. But I've 83 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: been dealing with this for like fifteen years. So it 84 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: is what it is. This is the tough love. This 85 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: is this is coming at you on a broadcast and 86 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: saying you must clean this up because we're worried that 87 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: it's gonna come back and haunt you in the biggest 88 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: of all spots. That's all. Well, I'm certainly will, but 89 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: I believe this is the Circadian Rhythm podcast of record. 90 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: All right, So today's show, I hope everybody had a 91 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: nice Mother's Day weekend. I hope everybody took care of 92 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: their mom um and the wives because some people say, well, 93 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: my wife, she's not my mother, so I don't really 94 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: have to plug in on the wife, just the mother. 95 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: No, no no, no, you gotta do both. Good luck with 96 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: that method. Yeah, you try to go one or the other. 97 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: That that logic is not going to carry over. So 98 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: I think I hope everyone that's listening to the show 99 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: made the right decisions this weekend. Coming up on today's show, 100 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: with the draft now a little bit in the rear 101 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: view of me, or it's time to try to enter 102 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: reality into the conversation of all these rookies, because if 103 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: you listen to the football cognis m you know how 104 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: I feel about that, Dan, you know how I feel 105 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: To tell you, they will feel about is silent in 106 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: the town you know how I feel about it. Let 107 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: me hear let me hear it. Money, it's Kanya Santi. 108 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: The g is silent. Please don't buy it. I don't 109 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: feel like pronouncing it correctly would ruin the bit though. 110 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: That's that's the whole thing. By the way, is that 111 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: Dan's bit? Is it? Like? Is there is there an 112 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: over under? Is there like an around the NFL reddit 113 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: that sets the over under on how many mispronunciations Dan 114 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: will have in a given pod and then they all 115 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 1: bet and then at the end of it they settle up. 116 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: Because that's kind of what I try to figure out. 117 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, I know he's intentionally mispronouncing some of these things. 118 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: I just don't know how many everything I'm saying is correct. 119 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: First of all, including cognis empty. Okay, so it's your opinion. 120 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: In doesn't mean it's the correct one money, that's all, okay. 121 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: I guess that's one way to put it. I don't 122 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: really I don't really ever try. I mean, I believe 123 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: it's the proper Italian pronunciation. But that's all right, proper 124 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: Italian pronunciation. What is your Italian heritage? Uh? Your sono studiato? Hello? 125 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: See I stand down, I'll never be invited back again. 126 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 1: Movement anyway over unders for rookies because yes, as I said, 127 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: a kind of anti they say that everyone had a 128 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: perfect draft except for the Raiders. Okay, but the reality 129 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: is all these big time rookies that came to the league, 130 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: some are going to have a big impact in year one, 131 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: some are gonna disappoint, and uh so we'll throw out 132 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: some names, um, notable names and kind of try to 133 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: figure out where they might come in in their first 134 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: season of pro ball. Before we do that, though, let 135 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: us hit the news. You're gonna hie, my friend. No, 136 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: that was not Delta Burke from Designing Women. That was 137 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning imploring a team to higher out and Gates. 138 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: Delta Burke. I found her very annoying. Even as a child. 139 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: I could tell that she was not my cup of tea. Yeah, well, 140 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: wherever you are, Delta, Um, I hope everything's going well. 141 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: All right, let's get into it starting Delta. Oh no, 142 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: we're playing this game, hang on. Well, total respect to her, 143 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: I just found her to be a little bit a 144 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: little bit too much still with us sixty four years old. Sorry, 145 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: Delta didn't marry and married to Major Payne. Was that 146 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: the name of the sitcom? Major Dad? Carol McCraney. All right, 147 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to it. Let's focus up here. 148 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: Important Eric Fisher, former Chiefs tackle, former number one overall pick. 149 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: He's got a new team. It's the Colts who signed 150 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: Fisher to a one year, nine point four million dollar contract. 151 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: He started a hundred and thirteen of a hundred and 152 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: seventeen games with Kansas City after coming into the league 153 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: number one overall. Um. Maybe money is not lived up 154 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: to the standing of where his draft status was, but 155 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: he became a solid starter for the Chiefs last year, 156 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: injuries played a major factor, and now the Colts get 157 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: a much needed option there on their line in front 158 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: of Carson Once. Yeah. You know, we saw him twice 159 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: a year. Um. We the Charger saw him twice a 160 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: year at those games that I called um And I 161 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 1: always just thought that he was pretty average. But I 162 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: think it just goes to show you that average can 163 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: go a long way in the NFL. You know. Now, 164 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: my understanding is he's probably not going to be ready 165 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: till October, so the Colts will probably need some sort 166 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: of answer between now and then. Um or I should 167 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: say from the start of the season until then. But look, 168 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 1: if you have a cap space and you're willing to 169 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: spend the money, I think you're gonna see, you know, 170 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: a deal that probably Charles Lennel is going to get 171 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: a deal like that. I mean, these are these are 172 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: good left tackles, right, you know that's and that is 173 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: hard to find, don't don't the Chargers know it. What 174 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: I've been looking at it left tackle for four years. 175 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: So if you can get Carson Wentz a league average 176 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: or close to a league average left tackle, uh, and 177 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 1: it's only gonna cost you a one year deal, I 178 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: would say, huge win for Chris Ballad and the Colts. Right. 179 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: And he's been better than league average for much of 180 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: his career, including recent he seemed to get better, but 181 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: he's coming off a torn achilles, might not be ready 182 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: till October. And then it's Eric Fisher coming off a 183 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: torn achilles. It's it's my number one concerned with this 184 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: Colts team. It's in with Carson Wentz in general is 185 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: he just holds the ball forever, doesn't make a decision. 186 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: That's why Frank Break's you know, there to to get 187 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: him making faster decisions, but for the first month or two, 188 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: it's a bit We've talked about how that's a bad 189 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: lucky division and Eric Fisher in theory helps you for 190 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: the playoffs, but they might be struggling for a while. 191 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: I mean that was if you look at teams that 192 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: didn't do what you thought they would do in the draft, 193 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: like the Cults not targeting a young tackle was one 194 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 1: of the kind of burning voids still sitting out there. 195 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,599 Speaker 1: But I do find it funny that we're also the 196 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: off season goes through these waves where we're now in 197 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: a wave where we're not allowed to critique Carson Wentz. 198 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: I find that. I just it seems after last year 199 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: it's like, you know what, actually Carson Wentz is, Like 200 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: are we are we kind of being a little too 201 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: tough on him? Like, yeah, who said that other than 202 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: Dan No. I mean it's maybe it, Maybe it is. 203 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: It's just come up on our show where I feel 204 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 1: like it's not really I'm not really pointing the finger 205 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: at one person. It's more just like the off season 206 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: does this all the time, where it's like we're not 207 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: excited about the Carson Wentz signing. Now it's like I 208 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: don't know he was really good in two thousand and seventeen. 209 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 1: I mean I was good in two thousand seventeen. So 210 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: I just I, you know, a lot has changed. So 211 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: Carson went nineteen mark all right left by by the way, 212 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: And I think it's I think I think a group 213 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: think is a very dangerous thing, especially what we do 214 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: for a living. If everyone just says, oh, Carson Wentz 215 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: thinks now, I believe it's important to at least leave 216 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: the option open that this fresh start with a coach 217 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: that knows how to get the most out of him 218 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: for a twenty eight year old quarterback, it could actually 219 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: go well. I don't think that's absurd to say that 220 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: there are multiple ways this wins. I just think the 221 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: group think is now going to go in that direction. 222 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It's not like, you know, we'll see, 223 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: we'll see these things get on my radar because it 224 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: happens every July. I feel like I feel like the 225 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: football world doesn't not wins. Fans and you hear a 226 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: lot of things about maybe he's not the best guy 227 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: in the locker room. There is plenty of reasons for 228 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: suspicion that this isn't gonna work out. I certainly grant 229 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: you that, I'm with you, and and there's there's a 230 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: decent chance, by the way, like Eric Fisher is much 231 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: better than half of these rookie tackles that people signed 232 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: and are all excited about. Like the Bears are putting 233 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: Tavin Jenkins into their left tackle spot and everyone's like, 234 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: all right, that's of then we cut Charles Leno. It's like, 235 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 1: what are the chances he's better than Charles Leno this year? 236 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: It's like maybe I would say maybe like that he's not. 237 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: I thought Leno was a pretty good tackle. Like I mean, 238 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: I'm again he's in Washington today visiting. Yeah, I think um. 239 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: And obviously, look it's all relative, right, I mean, I 240 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: spent the last year watching the worst offensive line in 241 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: the league, and it all comes back to the quarterback, right, 242 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: you know, justin Herbert yards and thirty one touchdowns behind 243 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: the worst offensive line in the league. He was the 244 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: most pressured quarterback in the league, yet he was able 245 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: to put up better numbers than most quarterbacks. So, I mean, 246 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: was that Tampa offensive line that good, like exceptional before 247 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: Tom Brady showed up? You know what I mean? It's 248 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: so much of it is dependent upon the quarterback. So 249 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 1: I think for everybody that's saying, oh, once you fix 250 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: the offensive line, you're hey, struggles are over, dude, No 251 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: that's not the case. I mean, you just gotta have 252 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: a quarterback that can pull that trigger and run that offense. 253 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: And that's gonna go a long way into mean whether 254 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: or not your old line is good or not. Speaking 255 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: of QB drama, the Vikings, we know they took kelen 256 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: Mond Texas a and m um quarterback with the sixty 257 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: six overall pick. You know, when you take a mid 258 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: round quarterback, it doesn't scream QB controversy on the way 259 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: with Kirk Cousins and Trench there. However, ESPN's Courtney Cronin 260 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: reported that the Vikings were ready to pull the trigger 261 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: on Justin Fields had he fallen to the fourteenth pick 262 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: in the draft. He did not fall because we know 263 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: the Bears traded up three picks ahead of them to 264 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: take Fields, and then the Vikings pivoted traded out of 265 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 1: fourteen with the Jets to collect some mid round picks themselves. 266 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: Um So, if this reporting is accurate, Greg, this is 267 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: spacey because now it's it's becoming clear now that the 268 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: Vikings have one eye on one with Kirk Cousins and 269 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: very clearly now and I on on the future with 270 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: the quarter acquisition that might not include Cousins at all. Yeah, 271 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: and yet they guarantee the money next year, which makes 272 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: it complicated. I love stuff like this, just the doors 273 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: not taken. They always bring up the Saints, how they 274 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: were gonna take Patrick Mahomes if the Chiefs didn't trade 275 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: up in front of them. That that's been pretty confirmed. 276 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: And then in this draft, in the NFC North alone, 277 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: the Lions passed on Fields. The Vikings were set to 278 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: take Fields, but they weren't gonna trade up for him, 279 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: and the Bears are the one that gets it, So like, 280 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: how does that change this division? That and the fact 281 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: that it's been reported and it's hard to confirm these things, 282 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: that the Jets traded up in front of Patriots, the 283 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: Patriots because they were pretty confident the Patriots were gonna 284 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: take Elijah Vera Tucker, which is just it's just crazy 285 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: to think that the Patriots, like quarterback of the future 286 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: would not been there because they preferred to take a 287 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: guard possible tackle and Vera Tucker and those are division rivals, 288 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: So like, how does the mac Jones Jets Patriots thing 289 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: work out? And how does this justin fields thing work out? 290 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: And yeah, well and and where you know where Aaron 291 00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: Rodgers quickly shifts into drama magnet mode. You don't hear 292 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: a word from Kirk Cousins because he'll happily, um be 293 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: a good little boy through next season, do whatever they 294 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: ask and make a huge amount of guaranteed money, not 295 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: just this year but next year. I mean, I think 296 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: in terms of Mond and whether or not he's a viable, 297 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, replacement for the future. Who knows. I mean, 298 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: there's not a lot of third round starters in the league, 299 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: right we kind of know because their tales are sung 300 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: so often when it does happen, so we know, you know, 301 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: the rarity of which that to be the case. But 302 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: I also know, you know, like getting a getting a 303 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, a viable backup quarterback and one of the 304 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: middle or you know, towards I should say, one of 305 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: the middle rounds. You almost never get him in the 306 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: late rounds. Um that that's important for teams. The last 307 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: thing they want to do is sacrifice cash or salary 308 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: cap capital on a backup veteran if they don't have to, 309 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: if they you know, like I know again I keep 310 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: I hate doing it, but I just get to see 311 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: it so much. But like in the case of Easton Stick, 312 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: I think they would have been fine had Chase Daniel 313 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: not just been so affordable. They were like, oh, you know, 314 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: this is a good guy for the room, and but 315 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: we feel like Easton Stick and can come in and 316 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: win a half or maybe win a game and a 317 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: half and at sixty grand instead of you know, seven 318 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: million bucks. That's a big win for a lot of franchises. 319 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't be surprised if that's kind of more 320 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: the thinking of the Vikings as opposed to we need 321 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: to bring someone to replace, you know, Kirk Cousins. The 322 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: most important person in your organization is your quarterback, and 323 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: then the second most important person in your organization is 324 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: your backup quarterback. And any of those Cowboys seasons when 325 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: totally we all enjoy it. Here's what you gotta do 326 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: here all right now, Greg is doing his impression. I mean, okay, 327 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: so when that happens, what I need you to do 328 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: now is you'd be quiet. Okay, that's first of all, 329 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: and after that, what you're gonna do is Greg's gonna 330 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: do his impression and then Dan is gonna come in 331 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: and he's gonna say, hey, Greg is doing an impression 332 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: of me. And then when he's done it out, then 333 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: you can go, I'll be back in about eleven minutes. 334 00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: That's sorry, Mark, you had what we were saying there, 335 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: but I just, I mean, I remember West and I 336 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: like joining at the hip, Joined at the hip, killing 337 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: the Cowboys for never having a backup in place that 338 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: really could win games behind Tony Romo. And they were 339 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 1: good teams that went totally south. So you know, it's 340 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: it can't be just about the low amount of earnings 341 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: that they're making. And you have the right now that 342 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: the Cowboys don't happen right now after what they just 343 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,719 Speaker 1: went through. They have Jeff Driscoll visiting on Monday, and 344 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: he would be easily their best backup, which is terrible. 345 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 1: In other news, the Broncos, they are obviously in the 346 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: news right now connected to Aaron Rodgers with all the 347 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: Rogers drama. James Palmer NFL Network Zone reported today the 348 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: Broncos have had plenty of internal discussions about the possibility 349 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: of making that happen. But for for the here and now, 350 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: it's Drew Lock and Greg's boy Teddy Bridgewater and they 351 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: need an offensive line in front of whoever the quarterback is. 352 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: They won't have Juwan James. It looks like whose Star 353 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: Cross career took another bad turn. Last Tuesday, team sources 354 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: confirmed that James sufford a torn achilles tendon and to 355 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: workout away from the Broncos facility. Um, it's there's some 356 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: talk whether season ending or not, We're not clear, but 357 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: either way, it's a very serious injury. He opted out 358 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: of last season, he was injured before that. Since signing 359 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: a four year, fifty one million dollar deal in March 360 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: of nineteen, he's played sixty three snaps. Yikes. Yeah, I 361 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: guess I'll start. It's it's probably the worst free agent 362 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: contract we've seen in years, right, I mean, sixty three snaps, 363 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: fifty million, twenty something guaranteed. It'll be interesting, Um, how 364 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: the Broncos opt to play this? And I think so 365 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: much of this, you know, as I think fans tend 366 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: to focus on the player and or they'll focus on 367 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: the team, and rarely do they focus on the agent. 368 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: And and to me, this is a great disservice done 369 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: to the player by the players agent. I don't I'm 370 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 1: not privy to those conversations. Um, but I do think 371 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: in the case of some of these players, guys opted 372 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: out uh. Um. You know, maybe in some cases for 373 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: health concerns, but I think in other cases for registering 374 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: a year on that deal in which they were gonna 375 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 1: be four games played or six games played, and and 376 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: that could be someone that has dissuaded. Hey, look, we 377 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 1: feel like you're gonna get the whole season in. That's 378 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: gonna roll over. So let's sit this one out and 379 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: then next year you can make your twelve million bucks 380 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 1: because we're probably gonna get all seven, sixteen, now seventeen in. Um. 381 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: If that was the case, my goodness. You know what 382 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: a bad situation Juwan James has been put into. And 383 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,479 Speaker 1: I guess my understanding is he was working out at 384 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: the facility. Um. That's why I think it's so interesting 385 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: with how the Broncos are going to treat this right. 386 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: You know, it's one thing if he's like, oh no, 387 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: I'm one of these veterans. I'm gonna heed the call 388 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: of Tom Brady and stay away and stand united. Uh, 389 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: not come in at all, then you get hurt. I 390 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if the Broncos go, uh, we're done. 391 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: You're not getting a cent. We don't know any of 392 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: that money you were hurt off premises or because he 393 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: has been coming in occasionally. If they will honor that contract, 394 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: it's gonna I think it's gonna be spicy. M I mean, 395 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: they'll they'll face like a legal battle right there. Yeah, 396 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of talk the Broncos may not give 397 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: him his money. We'll see. I've sort of don't want 398 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: to like kill him before they go ahead and do that. 399 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if they just do give it 400 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: to him. And this Tom Brady like trying to keep 401 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: everyone out of the offseason workouts, we'll see how that works. 402 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: Like it didn't work at all for the first three 403 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: rookie mini games, none of them listened. All the rookie 404 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: showed up for the first three or four teams. So 405 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: at least the rookies are not listening to this veteran 406 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: idea to not show up at the facility, right or 407 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: players that you know need to impress the coaching staff 408 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: versus um site unseen sitting home or operating else where. 409 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I want one little note to Aaron Rodgers. 410 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: I mean, this was PFFS twenty five ranked offensive line 411 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: a year ago, and you know Juan James wasn't there, 412 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: But they don't project to look a whole lot better 413 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 1: this season. Um, they're talking to Dennis Kelly apparently to 414 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: maybe come in and fill, you know, help out at tackle. 415 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: What if I took the Juwan James approach to this podcast, 416 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: OpEd it out of an entire season last year, Um, 417 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: leaving you guys to do all the work, and then 418 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: you know it got sort of a maybe a call 419 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: for cold and said I'm not coming back this year. 420 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: And then everyone's like, will NFL dot com pay mark 421 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: his you know, meager salary or not high drama, not 422 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: on the website. I think I think that would make 423 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: football Morning in America speaking of and actually know what 424 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: can I can I jump back into of that real 425 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: quickly and something that Greg said I think is important. Um, 426 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: you know, and and look, we all we're all subjected 427 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: to to hero worship at times and we have to 428 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: abide by it because of what these players mean to 429 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: the league. But you know, I just to me, it's 430 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: so irresponsible. With Tom Brady, I'd like to to run 431 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: that call and to be that emphatic about how you 432 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: I don't think people know kind of how how much 433 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: these guys make, you know what I mean, like that 434 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 1: you're talking about players, you know fifty four through ninety 435 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 1: that if they show up at these voluntary workouts, everything's 436 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: taken care of, all of their meals, all of their training. 437 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: They get a per diem, you know, they so like 438 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: people don't realize they get paid per day that they 439 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: show up. So either they're working out on their own 440 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: because like Greg said, they're trying to make the team. 441 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 1: They're on the you know they may or may not 442 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 1: make the team. Well, if you do it at the facility, 443 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,159 Speaker 1: you're making like three hundred bucks a day. So if 444 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 1: you're someone that's a fringe potential NFL player or practice 445 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: squad player and you're trying to make that practice squad, um, 446 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: if you don't go in, you're losing about a grand 447 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: a week to fifteen hundred bucks a week that you're 448 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 1: putting in your pocket for just showing up at the 449 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: facility and work. Not not to mention everything's paid for 450 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: when you go yeah, and that's just the financial side. 451 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 1: These guys are they're chasing the dream. You know, they 452 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to be in this building of this 453 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 1: professional team. Uh, turn some heads and make relationships. I 454 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: am totally with you. Brady exists and a whole he's 455 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 1: a he's a two per center within this NFL world 456 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: and he can't just speak for everyone. But is there 457 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: a point from another angle on that I totally agree 458 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: with you with that if there are, if they're gonna 459 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: stage it, those marginal players need to be there for 460 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: everything that you mentioned. But wasn't Brady's point a little 461 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: bit that he's sort of saying, you don't have baseball 462 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: players throwing ninety mile an hour fastballs like in you know, 463 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: the middle of winter when the baseball is not happening, 464 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: that maybe it's a tone down to some degree of 465 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: the structure of the off season that they're not doing that. 466 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 1: And these you know, they come before the c B 467 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: A like, why are we're right? You know you're right, Mark, 468 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: I mean, but you know again, they show up, they 469 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: watch film, they work out, they do breakout meetings, they 470 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: go on the field in shorts. They're almost never even 471 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: in shells in these and they're doing walkthroughs and then 472 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: maybe they're doing a little bit of of work. But 473 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: like the idea that Brady would drop that nugget to 474 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: the public that these guys are doing what's the equivalent 475 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: of a picture throwing an our fastball for seventy pitches 476 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: on a day in January. That's just irresponsible. That's that's there. 477 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: There's that's not what That's not what they're doing in 478 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: these you know, O T A s and these camps. 479 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: That's just not what's happening. John always looking at this 480 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: and like, we don't have to pay some of the money. 481 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: I like Burnt trying to fix this offensive line for 482 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: six years. Great, no one's like, no one's paying attention 483 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: to that anymore. Like that was the biggest sinkhole in 484 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: the NFL. They're offensive one the Speaking of Football Morning 485 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: in America, Brandon being the bid Bills general manager, spoke 486 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: with Peter King and there is a report that the 487 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: league is primed to set a threshold vaccination rate amongst 488 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: players for teams to conduct traditional meetings and practices, in 489 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: which is obviously an advantage to be able to prepare 490 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: for a new season at that level and being told 491 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: King that it would be an advantage uh to hold 492 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: those meetings and have those practices, and it might make 493 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: a roster decision easier for him based on who is 494 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: vaccinated and who is not vaccinated. And Marcus opens up 495 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: a whole can of worms. Obviously, a national discourse about 496 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: vaccinations and who has to get one, who must get one, 497 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: who gets the choice. All that that is going to 498 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: connect to the NFL, I think in a big way 499 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: this summer. Yeah, I mean, you know, I don't have 500 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: a huge hot take on this. I think from one angle, 501 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: being is talking about, like any general manager or executive 502 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: inside the building on the football side of operations, competitive advantage. 503 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: You don't want to lose the chance to gather um 504 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: if you can. But you know, this is a personal choice. 505 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: Is even sticks out to me as an interesting number 506 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: because what are the other fifteen percent doing on that front? Again, 507 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 1: I don't have a hot take on it. I'm getting 508 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 1: vaccinated and I'm not telling anyone else to do um 509 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: anything but um. The other fifteen percent seemed to be 510 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: a talking point inside a locker room to begin with, right, 511 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: I mean, Brandon been was was kind of asked about 512 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: this followed up from Peter King because he already said, 513 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: like I've cut a guy, you know, he said the 514 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 1: quiet part. He said, the part like, of course they 515 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: would cut a guy if if like things are close 516 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: between two guys towards the end of the roster and 517 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: you're you're trying to keep everyone safe, that's going to 518 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 1: be a factor. Most other gms probably would just, you know, 519 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: quietly do it. And it's only gonna be for guys 520 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: who are kind of marginal anyways. Stars aren't gonna be 521 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: cut based on their medical uh preferences with the vaccine. 522 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: They're they're not cutting Tom Brady about this, and he 523 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: said the quiet part out loud. But it's like, I 524 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 1: don't know, like it's just like last off season where 525 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: we said the world is coming to the NFL that 526 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: like everything that words struggling with in our work lives 527 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: and everything is going to affect the NFL two and 528 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: this is this is a good example of that. Like, 529 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 1: you know, our country, you know, it's gonna have so 530 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: many people that don't want the vaccine, and the rest 531 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: of the world's kind of looking at like, what the 532 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: hell is wrong with you? You guys are smart enough 533 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: to have all the vaccines, like why why aren't you 534 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: taking them? And there's gonna be there's gonna end up 535 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: being repercussions, whether they like say it out loud or not. Yeah, 536 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: to me, uh, I'm with you, Greg, it's a non story. 537 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: I think it's obvious. And you know you're the the 538 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 1: anti actors can can have their way with you know, 539 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: however you want, but whatever, it's a business. You know, 540 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: if if you feel like this is the best way 541 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: to operate your business because you want to have eighty 542 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: five or vaccine and your facility and do it. You 543 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: don't like it, don't work for him, you know, go 544 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 1: go work for someone else. Go work for the Eagles, 545 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: Go work for the Ravens or whoever else will bring 546 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: you in. If the bills aren't willing to employ you, 547 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: and if none of them are, whatever, go work somewhere else. 548 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's people. People mistake rights for privilege. 549 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 1: You know, these are independent, privately owned businesses, and then 550 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: that's that's the reality to me. I know it's not popular. Um, 551 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: I get it. I don't get I'm with you. I 552 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 1: don't want to put words in your mouth to try 553 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: to put you on the anti anti vax or position. 554 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to take some sort of political stance, 555 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: But to me, I think it's just a guy. I mean, 556 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,479 Speaker 1: but and there's also there's different forms of privilege, like 557 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: Lebron according to Dennis Shrewder and some you know German 558 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: interview like him in Bron were the only two guys 559 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: that haven't been vaccinated on the Lakers and intruders out 560 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: now after um, you know, getting the disease. Like that's 561 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: the privilege of being Lebron. Like if if you're a 562 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: if you're a starter making a ton ofment, you might 563 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: have the privilege to have a decision. But if you're 564 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: it's kind of like like guys who get arrested and 565 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: stuff like, you don't have the Like those guys end 566 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: up losing their jobs if you run a foul the law. 567 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: And this is this is similar. Do we know if 568 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: Tom Brady um accepted the vaccine because he seemed to 569 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: um issue the concept of wearing a mask the entire 570 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: season and he's out there whipping the ball around in 571 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: a park. You know, whenevere else connect you gotta bring 572 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: up old desk mark huh fuenty of doubts that connect 573 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: on Tom Brady if you, if you care to in 574 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: those realms all right, in other news mark, who is 575 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow? Mm hmm, well he's many people. Um. He 576 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: affected our lives when he did the football version of 577 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow with a multitude of teams about ten years ago, 578 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: and Dan and I were charged with I am not exaggerating. Um, 579 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: there was a stretch of time where Dan and I 580 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: were literally charged with writing ten plus Tim Tebow articles 581 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: a week. Mine um involved him dating or wanting to 582 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: be dated by Kardashian various Kardashian sisters. There was a 583 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: Katie Perry spread in there, um, something to do with 584 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: someone else. And Dan and I would tell you how 585 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: many Tebow articles we did each week, and whoever wrote 586 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: more would get the first round of beers for free 587 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: at the uh the old tavern up the street. The 588 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: breaking the breaking point for me was ye and while 589 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: the brain point was he ended up on my beam 590 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: and it was a horrible situation. Uh so that was bad. 591 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: But the break point for me is a professional NFL 592 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: media was having to work one Easter morning and I'm 593 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: in the newsroom and I'm you know, I got my 594 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: eye out, What's what's going on the league? It's quiet day, 595 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: It's Easter Sunday. And then a furious shadowy league figure 596 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: calls ready to fire my ass because I had yet 597 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: to write a poe about Tim Tebow speaking at some 598 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: Christian gathering in front of fifty thousand people or something. 599 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: I think Daniel Jeremiah's dad was involved. Was his thing, 600 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: It's like, and there was a fury that I had 601 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: yet to write a story about this church event, which 602 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: I guess. I was like, oh, I guess I blew 603 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: that one. Uh, And I was like, this is horrible, 604 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: and I don't want this to happen anymore in my life. 605 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 1: I think. I think Tim Tebow landing spots was the 606 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: first article I ever wrote at at NFL dot com. 607 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: He was getting replaced by who was he getting replaced? Man? 608 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: You should remember this Peyton Manning. Of course, right after 609 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: free agency. It was like that, the reaction to Peyton 610 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: Manning signing there I give I give John Elway credit 611 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: for this, and everybody listened to the show knows I 612 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: could be critical towards John uh and his handling of 613 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: the Broncos, especially in the last five years or so. 614 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: But at the height of Tebow Mania and that two 615 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: thousand I guess it was eleven season when everyone was 616 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: going crazy and he was having those fild finishes to 617 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: the game, and then of course the playoff win over 618 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and all that mania with the ninety yard touchdown. 619 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: Elway never bought in even in the press conferences. He 620 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 1: never gave the people what they wanted, which was for 621 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: him to say, he's our future, He's our team. Lay 622 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: always knew. I wonder what happened to that guy. I have. 623 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: I have three nuggets on Tebow that I'll share. UM. 624 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: One is and I don't know if these are incredible. 625 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: I think they're in chronological order. UM. I was calling 626 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: before I got the Charger's gig. I used to just call, 627 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: you know, game of the week, UM on the radio, 628 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: so I would be in whatever NFL talent calling a game. 629 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: I was doing a Packers Broncos game, and I was 630 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: on the field at Lambeau and I was watching Tim 631 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: Tebow warm up. And I have never seen in all 632 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: my years of calling football, college or professional, such a 633 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: poor throwing warm up like I was in disbelief how 634 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: badly he was missing receiver, like it really was. It 635 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: was like beyond comprehend that, like, wait, this is an 636 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: NFL and you're watching the receivers just kind of getting 637 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: all pissy as they're running their routes. Um, that's one too. 638 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: I called the Broncos Bears game that Caleb Haney started 639 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: for the Bears, in which the Broncos one in overtime. 640 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: I had to catch a flight out of Denver that night. 641 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: I think it might have been Tebow's first start, um 642 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 1: or it was it was an early Tebow moment, whatever 643 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: the case. Before I called NFL games, I used to 644 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: call college football games, so I had been in some 645 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: of these massive like I've called Tennessee Alabama. I mean, 646 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: I'm talking giant, ninety thousand sec fans freaking out, pouring 647 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: out of the stadium, celebrating in the streets for hours 648 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 1: on end. That went over the Bears is the closest 649 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: thing I have ever experienced in the NFL to a 650 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: college atmosphere. If you've ever been a mile high, you 651 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: you leave the stadium and if you go up on 652 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: the hill, it's the strip of bars. This st You 653 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: couldn't move a car. I couldn't get to my flat. 654 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: I had to spend the night in Denver. I could 655 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: not get out because people had just foured into the 656 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: streets to celebrate this regular season win over the Caleb 657 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: Haney lead Bears authored by Tom Tim Tebow. And then 658 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: my third nugget is, of course he played second fiddle 659 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: to me on the successful single season network show Million 660 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: Dollar Mile on CBS that I forgot about that. So 661 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: you people and I were tight. You guys worked together, 662 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: work together. We'd spend eighteen hours a day together on 663 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: set for about three weeks straight. Could not could not 664 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: be and I don't know if I've ever met like he's. 665 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: He's as nice a person as you've ever been around 666 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: in your life. Um, as you know, could not could 667 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: not be more happy that I was able to spend 668 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: those three weeks with that pleasant young man. Do you 669 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: still like text once in a while about various items 670 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: in your phone? I have, he's in my phone. Yeah, 671 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: I do not text him though. Did you tell him 672 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: that he had the worst pregame warm up you've ever 673 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: seen out of a corvette? You know, what's money, believe 674 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: it or not. I don't know if I said it exactly, UM, 675 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: but I kind of alluded to it. He's got like 676 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: this great self deprecating sense of humor, believe it or not, 677 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 1: like he was he totally I mentioned I had I 678 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: think I think I had mentioned something to that. You know, 679 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: I wasn't that abrasive. I just said, hey, I called 680 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: that that Bronco Packer game. I was watching your warm up. 681 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, so I think I kind of I 682 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 1: took a circuitous route to get to that point. And 683 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: it was a very gentle point I made anyway. Like 684 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: with all that said, and you know, I do want 685 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: to I I feel like it's a whole episode just talking 686 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: to Money about his Tebow experience. But Tebow is back 687 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: in the NFL. This is pretty nuts to me. He's 688 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: thirty three years old now. Um, he just spent the 689 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: last four or five years in the organization of the 690 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: New York Mets in Major League Baseball trying to make 691 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: it as a pro. And he hacked it down in 692 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,720 Speaker 1: the minors and went through the grind of the minor 693 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 1: league season, which is not um glamorous on any level. 694 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: And this is a lionaire athlete. Um didn't work out, 695 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 1: and now urban Meyer is bringing him to the Jacksonville 696 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 1: Jaguars where he's going to get a chance, uh to 697 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 1: try out as a tight end. Now, Mark the quarterback 698 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: dream is dead. Ken Tim Tebow make a team. Let 699 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: me tell you their depth dar right now at tight 700 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: end our Boy, Chris Man, Hurts, Luke Farrell, Farrell, Tyler Davis, 701 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: James O'Shaughnessy, ben Ellefson all on the depth chart. Tebow 702 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: does he have a shot? I mean he couldn't make 703 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: it based on the fact that Urban Meyer UM seems 704 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,240 Speaker 1: to love him. And you know, to Money's point, people 705 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: that you know, no Tin Tebow and away from some 706 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: of the you know, media critique say the same thing. 707 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 1: And and this is a young team UM with not 708 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, major veteran leadership. So I 709 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: mean from that angle, I would say, yes, can he 710 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: still play? Can he play tight end? I mean, he 711 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: is an incredible athlete and he maybe maybe still has 712 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: those skills. I mean I'd want to see him play 713 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: before I can say yes or no. But from a 714 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: person angle, I think they're not bringing him in UM 715 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: without a real chance of him being on the roster. 716 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 1: I think they're bringing him in like most thirty four 717 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:22,919 Speaker 1: year old veterans that get signed this time of year 718 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: as a camp body, maybe a little bit of a 719 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: favor in this case, and his chances of even being 720 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: ahead of O'Shaughnessy for the fourth or fifth tight end 721 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: spot are slim to none. There's very little reason to 722 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 1: think he would be remotely athletic enough to play tight end. 723 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: Like it's starting tebow to your organization, because you love 724 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: the name alone creates the man. He's in shape, and 725 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: it's like, what's the eighty six roster spot to Irban Meyer, 726 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 1: Sure give him some, give him some time in in 727 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 1: May through August and in the odds, you know, the 728 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: overwhelming odds are then he say goodbye. Eight years ago 729 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,720 Speaker 1: I would have said, oh, this is also a needless 730 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: distrus action in that building. But that's a t bamania. 731 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 1: I feel like it's from another era. I don't think 732 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be a story. I think it's 733 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: going to be a part of this camp with Trevor 734 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 1: Lawrence in the building, but I don't think it's going 735 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: to take over the team the way it maybe would 736 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: have once upon a time. Um to you know, to me, 737 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: I think there's a couple of things. One, you know, 738 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know if the Jags need publicity, 739 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: and you know, in in Jacksonville, you know, I'm not 740 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: quite sure. I would assume after Trevor Lawrence, you've got 741 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 1: everything you need right to try to stoke the fire 742 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 1: and that fan base. I've struggled to cell tickets. Obviously 743 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 1: Lawrence helps, but more more than most franchises. That's fair. Yeah, 744 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: so to Mek, to me, that's you know, I think 745 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: it's worth to me. It's more financial as opposed to football. 746 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: The one thing I would say that I didn't add 747 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: from you know, my I think I called two or 748 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: three of his games. But it's like the Beatles, like, 749 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: at least at that point it was. It was not 750 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 1: that I was alive when the Beatles, when Beatlemania was 751 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: taking over, but you see the film of it that's 752 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 1: sort of looked like like when you came out of 753 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: the tunnel. They had this group and I had never 754 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: seen this for any other team before, but they had 755 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: a group of what I would say was probably two 756 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 1: to three hundred people that would come on the field 757 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: and sit in this one particular area that we're just 758 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,480 Speaker 1: there for Tebow. They were not there to watch the 759 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: Broncos warm up, they were not v I P. This 760 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,239 Speaker 1: was a Tebow centric group, and I think that's what 761 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: you invite, right, you invite all these people that um. 762 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: And again, financially it's great, but from a football standpoint, 763 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: when you're warming up and you're trying to get ready 764 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: to play, you know, this game that's tough enough as 765 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: it is, and you've got two hundred people staying on 766 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: the field that it paid for this premier experience with 767 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 1: this individual that may or may not have a huge 768 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 1: impact on the game. I think that's asking, you know, 769 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 1: that's asking a little bit from the rest of your 770 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: roster right to embrace tebow Mania going into a seat 771 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: because it's gonna be there and it's gonna be at 772 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: every spot. If you're listening fourth round pick Jordan's Smith, 773 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 1: you're like, please give me a rep against Tebow and 774 00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: let me wipe the floor with it. Got this floor please? Um. 775 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: And finally in the news, the NFL will release it's 776 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 1: schedule on Wednesday, and you can check that out right 777 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: here on NFL Network And were there, I should say, 778 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: they're on NFL Network and ESPN two has it as well. 779 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 1: Contractually obligated to mention that, Um, what do you guys, 780 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: if you have the power to pick the opening game, 781 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: I'll start with you on this one. Mark. If you 782 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 1: have the power to choose, what is the Thursday night opener, 783 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: what's the matchup you want to see? All right? So 784 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: looking at all their home and a way opponents, so 785 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 1: you gotta go. The problem is there away against the Patriots. 786 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,839 Speaker 1: So you're saying they Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 787 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: I mean, get the game obviously right otherwise, but they 788 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 1: play in New England, so that is tedious because that 789 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: wipes out what would easily be my number one pick. 790 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: There's a very clear second for me. Don't give me 791 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 1: Bucks Saints the first of all, that is highly annoying. 792 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: UM give me Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home against the 793 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. Yep, I think that's the choice. Um, I agree, 794 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 1: Saints Saints feels like it's almost as likely. I don't 795 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: think they want to use They wouldn't do the Cowboys 796 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: or the Giants. I don't think. If anything, because it's 797 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: like the kickoff is gonna get great ratings. Anyways, Let's 798 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: save that Cowboys game for another time. The Bills. The 799 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: Bills are sort of the perfect the perfect compromise, the 800 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: perfect marriage. They're the best team possible, and they're also, like, 801 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,240 Speaker 1: you know, a smaller market. It's a matchup you wouldn't 802 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: be used to see, and it's beautiful. Yeah, I think 803 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,479 Speaker 1: the I just wonder if that's too early for that game, right, 804 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: I mean a potential Super Bowl preview? You would think 805 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 1: they'd want that maybe a little bit later. Um, I mean, 806 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: like you said, they're gonna get ratings anyway. Right, it 807 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: feels like it feels like it could be Saints with 808 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: Jamis and everything, But that would that I'm with Mark, 809 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: the Bills would think Jamis is like a big national 810 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: selling point. I don't know, not at all. I will 811 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 1: say this, and I know they they like to have 812 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: it obviously in the building of the defending champions, So 813 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: maybe this rows it out. But I will throw this 814 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: one out because I know this is an important facility 815 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: in our league and I know this is a big market. 816 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 1: Was to check that box? What if Tampa Bay went 817 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,400 Speaker 1: to l A to play the Rams in the full 818 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:29,359 Speaker 1: House at Englewood, Matthew Stafford's first game I bow side 819 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl, They kind of got robbed of 820 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 1: opening that stadium the right way. In Beau of COVID. 821 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: This would be a way to kind of sell the 822 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: whole experience and what it means and a good game 823 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 1: and a really good but the Bucks would totally revolt. 824 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: What was the year? Was it the well, they just 825 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 1: got the Super Bowl in their building, so you know, 826 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: I know, remember when the Ravens had to after they 827 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl had to open what I think 828 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: it was against the Broncos and I think Joe Flaccos 829 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: like passes in this game, but they had open on 830 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 1: the road if I'm not mistaken, because the Orioles were 831 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: like at home on the same Peter Angelos, the owner 832 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 1: of the Orioles, would not move a game. Uh, and 833 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: it stuck it to the Ravens. It sounds like some 834 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: like rich guy fighting that we were just trivy to 835 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 1: plus there was like not that it's a reason to 836 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:19,760 Speaker 1: do it, but no player or team has ever owned 837 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: another team over the course of the amount of time 838 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: Brady was in in New England. As Brady and the 839 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: Patriots did Buffalo like literally like statistically, no one beat 840 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: up on one other franchise enough so it would be 841 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 1: a nice little like we can get back at even 842 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 1: at the end, even in Brady's last year, the Bills 843 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: had a chance to win end and didn't come up. 844 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: To me, it probably comes down to the Cowboys and 845 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: the Bills, right, I mean that's so I feel it 846 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 1: gonna be the giants in the Bills. I feel like 847 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: they don't like to use their best things their Cowboys. Yeah, 848 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 1: Cowboys makes a lot of that. If I if I 849 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:55,800 Speaker 1: were a betting man, which I am not, especially in 850 00:42:55,880 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: matters related to professional football. Cowboys at Bucks. That brings 851 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,359 Speaker 1: the ratings in a biting reaction show. By the way, 852 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,280 Speaker 1: we're doing a Wednesday night show. We're changing our schedule 853 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 1: this week. We're so big on the schedule release this year. 854 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: We love it. They rolled out Viking Saints as an opener, 855 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, following that NFC title games. So they don't 856 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,959 Speaker 1: they don't always save you know, the best matchup right. 857 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:25,879 Speaker 1: That's what's happening in the news. All right, So we're 858 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 1: caught up on the news. Now, let's get caught up 859 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: on you know, where are these rookies, these high profile rookies. 860 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: How are they going to come out of their rookie seasons. 861 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 1: It's kind of silly obviously, because you can't really know 862 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 1: how these guys are gonna play. Look at look at 863 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: the quarterback that you just studied Money for an entire 864 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 1: season is the voice of the Chargers. Nobody thought Herbert 865 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: was gonna do what he did, so that's that's part 866 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 1: of the fun. Jeremiah ranked them below Ross Blacklock, uh 867 00:43:55,200 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 1: Texans defensive tackle. You know the hits? You know that 868 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 1: that is that is wonder Wall by Oasis. Every time 869 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: I see like a nugget about Blacklock, I'm just like, well, 870 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 1: DJ had him nineteen Herbert, you know, I'd like to 871 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: play the thing like, oh, I like feuding with people 872 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: because I don't take it seriously. But then you see 873 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 1: the stuff where he always brings up DJ and how 874 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 1: he missed on Darnald and how he's bringing up that 875 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: justin Herbert thing constantly. This is your way of seriously 876 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: sticking it back to DJ for his little fun social media. 877 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: Very spiteful. I mean, I I just would think it'd 878 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 1: be awkward that he has to now work with Herbert 879 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 1: for the next decade like this amazing quarterback. It's like, yeah, 880 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 1: I thought you were like as good as like a backup, 881 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 1: you know, defensive or every every show, or he thought 882 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: he was the twentieth best player in the draft, which 883 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 1: I would say is quite a compliment, right for someone 884 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 1: that that was operating in a run first offense and 885 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: a head coach that was terrified to have his quarterback 886 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 1: take chances. Well, he's like Tom Talsco didn't see him 887 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,359 Speaker 1: as a top twenty the twentieth best play there, that's 888 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 1: for sure. Ain't that the truth? So let's since we're 889 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 1: talking quarterbacks, let's start with pick one, pick one of 890 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: one of two fifty nine, Trevor Lawrence. Really interesting to 891 00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:18,439 Speaker 1: imagine where the Jaguars end up this season if they 892 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: get legit quarterback play, which is in line here potentially. 893 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: So let me throw this out as a rookie season 894 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,399 Speaker 1: for Trevor Lawrence, and you guys tell me over under, 895 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 1: is this in the ballpark in your mind? Or is 896 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: this way out of line? First of all, he's starting, 897 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: let's say, I'll say, uh, you know, sixteen seventeen games, 898 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 1: sixteen and a half games, all right, a half touchdowns, 899 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: thirteen and a half interceptions, yards passer rating? Am I crazy? 900 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 1: Is this too optimistic? Or are we should we look 901 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 1: at him as emerging as something close to his star. 902 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 1: Something Herbert asked right out of the game, I'm going 903 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: under with those numbers, I mean expecting, and those are 904 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 1: similar but a little lower than what Herbert did last year. 905 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 1: That that's a lot to ask. I mean, even even 906 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, who was playing pretty well last year, wasn't 907 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 1: going to get to those sort of numbers. And I 908 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 1: still have questions about how this surban Meyer thing goes 909 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: and the talent around him in Jacksonville. It's not like 910 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: they're loaded there. I don't think Lawrence is landing in 911 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 1: an amazing situation. I think he's landing in a pretty 912 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: typical situation for a number one pick. I don't know. 913 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Baker Mayfield started fewer games through twenty seven touchdowns, 914 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 1: had fourteen interceptions in thirty seven hundred yards. So if 915 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: you're giving an extra game, you know, sixteen and a 916 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 1: half starts you can get. You gave him to Trevor Lawrence. 917 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: I think you're in the ballpark. And I wouldn't have 918 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: a problem with over With the way that the NFL 919 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: operates offenses right now, yeah, I think i'd lean under. Um. 920 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: I just you know, I feel like Herbert's season was 921 00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 1: such an outlier, you know, in terms of just those 922 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 1: those numbers, we don't see him, you know, and I 923 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,880 Speaker 1: think in terms of urban he's such a you know, 924 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 1: he is such a maniac for for winning, and I 925 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 1: could see him trying to minimize mistakes that are inevitably 926 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 1: going to come with rookie quarterback, no matter how good 927 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 1: a prospect they are, because you know, we saw that 928 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 1: in a lot of those Charger games. You know, as 929 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 1: great as Herbert was, late game situations tended to get 930 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: away from him a little bit. A lot of that 931 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: could be because the defense wasn't playing well and maybe 932 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 1: he felt like he had to do too much. But 933 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: they don't have a good defense in Jacksonville. I don't 934 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 1: think they have a great offensive line in Jacksonville. So 935 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 1: I could just kind of see Meyer trying, especially in 936 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: that division right kind of being able to envision, you know, 937 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 1: I know we don't have the roster right now, but 938 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 1: maybe this thing's gettable. At eight and eight, he's talking 939 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,879 Speaker 1: about running and that that's going to keep the numbers down. 940 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:51,800 Speaker 1: But then and that we move this full this fullback nonsense. 941 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:53,719 Speaker 1: What have we just moved to right guard, and just 942 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: see how that goes. Like a bunch of shakes, get 943 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: him up about a hundred pounds and and let's fly 944 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: plug him right in. Text them right now, Money, see 945 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:04,680 Speaker 1: if if you want a roster spot, maybe offensive line. 946 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 1: I mean, if you have not it sounds like you 947 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 1: haven't texted Tibo in quite a while. That would be 948 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 1: an odd way to get back in touch with him. 949 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 1: But if you type in Tebow on your phone right now, 950 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: money doesn't bring up the most recent text, and how 951 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 1: long ago was that? It does not. Wow. You know 952 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 1: what's funny is I don't see it in here. Teba 953 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 1: was blocked money. Maybe he was like able to send 954 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 1: some sort of electronic pulse his contact from Money. By 955 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 1: the way, when I was setting that, when I was 956 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: setting that line for Lawrence, I did go back and 957 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 1: look at what Andrew Luck did, which is interesting because 958 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 1: everyone says that Lawrence best prospects since Luck. Surprisingly, and 959 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,399 Speaker 1: it's a bit of a different error. At this point, 960 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: there's two thousand twelve but twenty three touchdowns, eighteen interceptions 961 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: completed less uh just over of his passes passer rating 962 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,359 Speaker 1: of seventy six and a half. They want eleven and 963 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,399 Speaker 1: five though. Yeah, and did a lot of good things 964 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 1: doing it. And that's the type of thing where I 965 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 1: think that's a realist expectation. Lawrence could look really good 966 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 1: and still his numbers might not be. I guess part 967 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: of the reason I didn't set it in that area, Greg, 968 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,960 Speaker 1: because I know the game is played differently now and 969 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: it's more offensively declined anyway, justin fields, let's hit some 970 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 1: of these quarterbacks justin fields. I just want to talk 971 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 1: about playing time here. Twelve and a half starts, he is, 972 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:24,760 Speaker 1: of course the Bears, Andy Dalton is in the building, 973 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 1: easy over. Yeah, I agree. Hmm. I thought that was 974 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,839 Speaker 1: about that sounded about right. I can absolutely see them 975 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: starting Dalton for three games before pulling the record. You know, 976 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 1: but we do this, we do this. We do this 977 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: every year. What week will quarterback X start? And the 978 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,879 Speaker 1: conservative approach is always week six, week five, and then 979 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,920 Speaker 1: the team gets its butt kicked in week one, and 980 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,239 Speaker 1: bang that guy's in there in week two. That no 981 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 1: one has a patience for for fifty days of Andy Dalton, 982 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 1: I promise you. I think the difference with Fields is 983 00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 1: just his disposition, his lead ship, like that's that's some 984 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: of the things that really make him special. Um. You 985 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 1: hear the way teammates gush about him. So I just 986 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 1: think Andy Dalton can overcome that. To me, he goes 987 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: into that building, he takes over that team, he takes 988 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 1: over that quarterback room. He becomes their savior and their 989 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: leader of this new era Bears football. And I think 990 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 1: they're just to me that the coaches they'll have to 991 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 1: go with him. I think I think he will inspire 992 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,759 Speaker 1: confidence in that team that Andy Dalton just simply can't. 993 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 1: You can so far, I'm going over. The two of 994 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 1: you have convinced me. Yeah, I'm kind of with you. 995 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 1: I think I think all that was well said. I'll 996 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 1: hit you over there too. Here's a tougher one, Trey Lance, 997 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 1: I got him an eight and a half starts. I'm 998 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 1: going over and Garoppolo in the middle. I thought about 999 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: this the more. I think he's got a real chance 1000 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 1: to start Week one, um, and that it will be 1001 00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,319 Speaker 1: sooner than later. I think it's all going to be 1002 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 1: up to him. If he looks, if he looks awesome, 1003 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 1: and he's and he's picking up the offense, and he 1004 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 1: gives Kyle shanahand some different options. I think he's got 1005 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 1: a chance to play early. I'd be interested to hear 1006 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:03,359 Speaker 1: what Money has to say, because I mean from a 1007 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 1: college angle, he's a little bit of an outlier in 1008 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:08,840 Speaker 1: terms of how many passing attempts he had in college. 1009 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,719 Speaker 1: So it's like, but you hear that he's you know, 1010 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 1: incredibly like intellectual, pre snap all there mentally, So if 1011 00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:16,839 Speaker 1: he's if he's able to do it, I would go over. 1012 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: But I would I would always go over in these 1013 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 1: situations with the rookie quarterbacks because I just don't think 1014 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:23,879 Speaker 1: you go get this guy and do what you did 1015 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 1: without thinking in your mind there's a great chance he 1016 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: starts fourteen or fifteen games for us. Yeah, I'm with you, 1017 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: Mark and Greg. I think he starts, you know, because 1018 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 1: and look what if you know what is Shanahan so 1019 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,479 Speaker 1: good at right? It's disguising, it's it's winning the play 1020 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 1: before the ball is snapped. And like you said, I 1021 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: mean what you hear about Trey Lance is just such, 1022 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,360 Speaker 1: you know, a smart guy, someone who's able to diagnose. 1023 00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 1: Was asked to do that to check in and out 1024 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,279 Speaker 1: of place from the quarterback position, even though it was 1025 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 1: at North Dakota State. UM. You know, I I would 1026 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,360 Speaker 1: be really surprised if he didn't start. I've got to 1027 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,640 Speaker 1: believe they're still crossing their fingers that there's a way 1028 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,360 Speaker 1: to move Garoppolo um that they can get, you know, 1029 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,400 Speaker 1: recoup some of that draft capital they lost from a 1030 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: desperate team that that unfortunately sustains an injury and training 1031 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:12,000 Speaker 1: camp um or preseason. So I you know, because look, 1032 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:13,799 Speaker 1: I think you can design it right. You can kind 1033 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 1: of do what the Bills did with Josh Allen where 1034 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 1: you don't have to throw before Yeah, exactly, he's done. 1035 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:20,799 Speaker 1: I think that's sort of been lost on this. That 1036 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 1: you know, when I was thinking of was when I 1037 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:26,640 Speaker 1: was calling Herbert the best rookie season of the last 1038 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:30,279 Speaker 1: two decades. Number two is probably r G three that 1039 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 1: same year with Andrew Luck and that's Kyle Sani and 1040 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 1: that you know, he was threw twenty touchdowns, five Intercepton's 1041 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,719 Speaker 1: Rookie of the Year r G three with Shanahan. If 1042 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 1: he can do it for r G three, I gotta 1043 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: think he's he's ready to do it. I just I 1044 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 1: wonder if because we're I think we're all in agreement 1045 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,879 Speaker 1: that the Fortys have a chance to be very good 1046 00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,920 Speaker 1: this season. And it's not all on the quarterback. It's 1047 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: because it's just it's a well rounded roster that got 1048 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,879 Speaker 1: killed by injury, uh setbacks last season, and you would 1049 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:59,120 Speaker 1: think with steady quarterback play and all these other pieces 1050 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: that they can win a lot. I just wonder if 1051 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,320 Speaker 1: if they decided to open the season with Garoppolo and 1052 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 1: and Site in part that Lance has such little background 1053 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,000 Speaker 1: and playing in general, even going back to college, that 1054 00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 1: if they get out of the gates fast and there 1055 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,880 Speaker 1: are five and one, they might not be like in 1056 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: a rush to put in the kid, And then when 1057 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 1: they hit turbulence around mid season or Graplo gets hurt, 1058 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 1: which is always a factor here, then Lance gets there. 1059 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna play a start a similar amount 1060 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 1: of games. That's just a hunch I have, But I 1061 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,279 Speaker 1: haven't just quickly pushed back on they're gonna be exceptional. 1062 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what that defense is gonna look like. 1063 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 1: You know, they got rid of Buckner. That was the 1064 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: wrong call, you know, I on think Armstead has been 1065 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 1: as good without him. I think, you know, kin Law 1066 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 1: was average, you know, to just maybe even below. He 1067 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 1: started to come on a little bit towards the end 1068 00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,240 Speaker 1: of the year, but that didn't seem like an adequate 1069 00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,359 Speaker 1: replacement for Buckner, and that was that was a strength man. 1070 00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 1: They got that push up front, and that was just 1071 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: kind of what caused everything else to operate. Everybody celebrated 1072 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 1: Robert sala for being the brains behind that defense and 1073 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: coordinating that defense. He's gone. I don't know what his 1074 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:06,160 Speaker 1: replacement's gonna look like. Um, the secondary was beat to hell. 1075 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,759 Speaker 1: They know, pretty rough in the secondary. They're now supposedly 1076 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 1: talking to Richard Sherman. That looks like their weakness. But 1077 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: they coached them up. I mean, they didn't have Nick 1078 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:15,320 Speaker 1: Boast the last year. They didn't have a lot of 1079 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 1: their best players, and they coached them off. I mean, 1080 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,320 Speaker 1: I kind of think maybe the scheme in the system 1081 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:24,840 Speaker 1: prevails there even without Salah. All Right, fascinating team, the Diners. 1082 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,799 Speaker 1: Moving on Kyle Pitts. They say, the best prospect tight 1083 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 1: end prospect maybe ever I'm gonna And there's an offense 1084 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 1: with stars at wide receiver and Julio Jones and Calvin 1085 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,120 Speaker 1: Ridley a former m v P, and Matt Ryan was 1086 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:44,320 Speaker 1: someone to approved and an offensive coach that everybody loves. 1087 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:49,400 Speaker 1: And Arthur Smith with that set, Kyle Pitts as a 1088 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 1: rookie seventy one and a half catches yards, seven and 1089 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 1: a half t ds. Get it, obliterates the rookie tight 1090 00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 1: end record by like triple. Oh my god, Well, this 1091 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 1: is a generational all time prospecting. What an excellent offensive 1092 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 1: situation I gotta pull up with Darren Waller had last 1093 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: year in one of the great tight end seasons, because 1094 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:16,680 Speaker 1: I think that might even be close to better than 1095 00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: what Waller had. All right, it'd be It'd be a 1096 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 1: lot to ask. I was ready to go over for anything, 1097 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 1: because I just want to believe in this in pits 1098 00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 1: and I'm I'm buying the hype. Arthur Smith tight ends 1099 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 1: for what it's worth. You know, didn't put up huge 1100 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:32,360 Speaker 1: numbers in Tennessee, even though he certainly got him a 1101 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 1: lot of touchdowns. Well that, yeah, that that feels a 1102 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,360 Speaker 1: little too rich. Even though I was ready to go over, 1103 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:40,399 Speaker 1: I guess I guess I'm gonna have to go under. 1104 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: By the way, one of the best rookie campaigns by 1105 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:46,720 Speaker 1: a tight end never was Mike Ditka, who had one thousand, 1106 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 1: seventies six yards and twelve touchdowns. I mean, you look 1107 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 1: across the board most other rookies, and I know this 1108 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: is sort of a trope, but there's a truism behind it. 1109 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,719 Speaker 1: The rookie tight ends just don't produce that way, So 1110 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 1: he's not a normal tight end. To be fair, I 1111 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,280 Speaker 1: think I think he could get to nine dred of thousands. 1112 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:03,840 Speaker 1: So if you, if you had put it right a 1113 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,200 Speaker 1: little lower, I might, I might I go under. But 1114 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 1: I think that he's going to be different. I mean 1115 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 1: there's no question about that. So last year Waller, who 1116 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,960 Speaker 1: was very I think I think that's the closest comp right. 1117 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 1: It's it's just an impossible cover. He almost operates like 1118 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 1: a wide receiver as opposed to a tight end, just 1119 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,239 Speaker 1: so athletically gifted for his size. Last year, Waller did 1120 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,839 Speaker 1: a hundred and seven catches for eleven nineties, six and 1121 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: nine touchdowns. But again he was targeted DDT five times. 1122 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,319 Speaker 1: I didn't look it up. I would guess the next 1123 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:36,760 Speaker 1: highest targeted receiver was probably Agalore, like eight five targets 1124 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 1: or something like that. I mean, car was a part 1125 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,960 Speaker 1: of out, so you got Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley. I 1126 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 1: just don't man, that seems high to me. Still. You 1127 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 1: know what if Julio Jones is still in the building, Yeah, 1128 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: if he's moved targets. Uh, how about Nause Harris. Okay, 1129 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 1: new Steelers running back. He's gonna be locked and loaded 1130 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 1: and be a big part of that offense you you 1131 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,400 Speaker 1: expect as a first round pick. Running back James Conner 1132 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:10,880 Speaker 1: is in Arizona. Now, I'll set it atven total yards 1133 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 1: and seven and a half touchdowns. I'll go over. I'm 1134 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 1: sure fantasy people who were like all down and don't 1135 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 1: waste the first round pick on running back, Oh that 1136 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,040 Speaker 1: that lasts as long as as you're in your fantasy 1137 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 1: draft and you're like, who else is getting three touches 1138 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: in the NFL? Naja Harris to me, was on a 1139 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 1: short list, I'd go I'd go over him and Pitts. 1140 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 1: I think I have a decent chance to you know, 1141 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 1: be underdog offensive rookie of the year. Guys, even with 1142 00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: all these quarterbacks, I'll go over too, because I mean, 1143 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor surpassed the numbers you mentioned last year, and 1144 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna use them all day long, starting 1145 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 1: right away. And I think that you know, you could 1146 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,919 Speaker 1: also examine what the over under would be in terms 1147 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 1: of receiving yards because he's he's a dual threatened so 1148 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,960 Speaker 1: I think he has a great chance to be Rookie 1149 00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 1: of the Year. I'd agree, you gotta ben, he can 1150 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,040 Speaker 1: barely move hand the ball to the guy a lot 1151 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 1: a lot of those smoke routes, just you know, I agree, 1152 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna end up. You know, the one 1153 00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 1: thing about Taylor is that he was behind the best 1154 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:12,040 Speaker 1: offensive line in the league, you know, and I think 1155 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,120 Speaker 1: the Steelers look like they might have one of the 1156 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 1: what ten worst at this point, So that would be 1157 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: the only concern, especially for someone that was running behind 1158 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: the offensive lines that he's been running behind his entire 1159 00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: time in college. At the same time, there's like a 1160 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 1: flip side of that, right, Alabama's got this great offensive line, 1161 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 1: but you're also dealing with just incredible athletes size, speed 1162 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,760 Speaker 1: ratio in the SEC, so he knows what it's like 1163 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,000 Speaker 1: to have to absorb I think darn close to NFL 1164 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 1: contact at the d line linebacker level, and he broke 1165 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 1: a ton of tackles, So I'm with you. I think 1166 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:44,160 Speaker 1: it's a hey, clean sweep, got the over and I'll 1167 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 1: do one more and then if anyone else has one, uh, 1168 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 1: please throw it out. Rashade Bateman, okay, first round pick 1169 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 1: of the Ravens. A lot of conversation that he is 1170 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:56,960 Speaker 1: going to be exactly what they needed to get their 1171 00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 1: passing game going well. According to this over under, I'm 1172 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,960 Speaker 1: not totally buying it. Fifteen and a half catches, seven yards, 1173 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 1: three and a half, T D S three and a half, 1174 00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 1: that's me. I'll go push. I think that you nailed that. 1175 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 1: I think you nailed the exact line. You keep the 1176 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna have fifty and a half catches, and I 1177 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: think i'd go under two um at least for the 1178 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 1: yards in the in the catches that's at I feel 1179 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 1: like six D and fifty yards and forty five catches 1180 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,800 Speaker 1: would be a success for a rookie receiver in that 1181 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 1: in that system. Come in, be part of the solution, 1182 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 1: and you don't have to light the world on fire. 1183 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 1: I feel like if I take the under, I'm going 1184 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 1: to be attacked for negative Lamar Jackson commentary, So uh, 1185 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 1: I don't feel like getting it. I'm already gonna get 1186 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 1: attacked by the anti bactors. I don't want to get 1187 00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 1: two groups coming after me after this podcast, So I'll 1188 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 1: go over. Lamar Jackson canal throw outside the numbers as 1189 00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: accurate as any quarterback in history. I'm going over to 1190 00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 1: be fair Hollywood Brown five d at eighty four yards 1191 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 1: and seven touchdowns this rookie season, seven sixty nine and 1192 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 1: eight his second. I think maybe Bateman is viewed a 1193 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 1: little more complete than than that. I think you set 1194 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:13,480 Speaker 1: the number right around right right where it should be 1195 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,840 Speaker 1: over alright there? Anybody have one to throw out them? 1196 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 1: So I have I have one too quick, dan Esque 1197 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:24,960 Speaker 1: ones because you were nice enough to offer them to us. UM, 1198 01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 1: so you can just you don't have to analyze it. 1199 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:30,720 Speaker 1: Just go over under landon Dickerson, your boy over under 1200 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 1: two sacks allowed, two sacks allowed? UM, I don't think. 1201 01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how else tweet Judges, 1202 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think he's gonna allow any 1203 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 1: sacks out of the pivot in Philly this year over 1204 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:45,960 Speaker 1: seventeen stars. Alright, how about this, Robert Sala This has 1205 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 1: to be captured on UM Broadcast Network. UM footage two 1206 01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two fist bumps during the regular season 1207 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:59,439 Speaker 1: over under two. So that's you know, a little over 1208 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 1: a week, you know, twelve a week or something. That's 1209 01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,680 Speaker 1: a pretty big number. He might get injured. Um, so 1210 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go under. Yeah. The camera found its way 1211 01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 1: to Salah more often than any other player on the 1212 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,800 Speaker 1: forty niners during his final couple of seasons there, so 1213 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,440 Speaker 1: I think the cameras will be trained on Sala than it. 1214 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: Just I think the Jets defense isn't gonna be good 1215 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 1: enough this year. They didn't address the ball, that's side 1216 01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 1: of the ball. I think it's gonna be a little 1217 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 1: bumpy as they try to figure some things out. So 1218 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the under. There m not enough 1219 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 1: to fist bump about. How about over under? Well, it's 1220 01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 1: not really an over under. It's an either or. Uh. 1221 01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: Your boy Wilson has got more interceptions than touchdowns. Are 1222 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:46,880 Speaker 1: more touchdowns than interceptions, Zack Wilson, by the way, I mean, 1223 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:50,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. Well, go ahead, dan Is, I know 1224 01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 1: where you're going. Greg. Um, let's see. I it's too 1225 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:59,400 Speaker 1: I'm so conditioned to the failure at this position that 1226 01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: I would get us. What's gonna probably happen is he's 1227 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 1: gonna have an up and down season. He's gonna have 1228 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:06,440 Speaker 1: plenty of doubts around him, but I just want to 1229 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,480 Speaker 1: live in the realm of optimism. I'm gonna say he's 1230 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 1: gonna go positive. We also, you've got a Mike Lafloor 1231 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 1: offense that came from the brain of Kyle Shanahan, which 1232 01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 1: is a quarterback friendly. You're not gonna put quarterbacks into 1233 01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:22,439 Speaker 1: worlds of total chaos. It would be a huge disappointment 1234 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 1: if you threw more picks than touchdowns. So I just 1235 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 1: I can't see that world touchdowns one. It's hard to 1236 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,360 Speaker 1: do that at this point. And Josh Allen did it 1237 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:35,720 Speaker 1: his rookie season. He had he had more interception, but 1238 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: that's it's pretty rare. I mean, when that happens to 1239 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,000 Speaker 1: a veteran like Jamis, it's like you become a punchline. 1240 01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:43,920 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say, no, the NFL is it's too 1241 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,640 Speaker 1: hard to throw that many interceptions. I think he'll be 1242 01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:51,280 Speaker 1: fine accurate quarterback to we're talking about, yeah, you like 1243 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:53,720 Speaker 1: nineteen and thirteen or something like. I was gonna say, like, 1244 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:55,920 Speaker 1: they're back up. We just talked about this last week. 1245 01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,760 Speaker 1: Their backup quarterback right now is like Delta Burke, I 1246 01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:00,680 Speaker 1: don't even know if they have a crack up quarterback 1247 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 1: on the time. I don't know if you knew this. 1248 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 1: By the way, Delta Burke still a lot still were throwing. 1249 01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,760 Speaker 1: Are we throwing Mac Jones over? Under? I'm gonna set it. 1250 01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna set it at seven and a half. Maybe 1251 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:17,880 Speaker 1: that's too low, but I don't care. I'm going over. 1252 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: I'm because I'm going what I'm rooting for. I really 1253 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:22,600 Speaker 1: think they're gonna try to make this work with Cam Newton, 1254 01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 1: and they're only gonna go to and they're only gotta 1255 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:28,080 Speaker 1: go to Mac Jones if is truly not going well, 1256 01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 1: which is certainly, you know possible after watching last year's off, 1257 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: going over, you're going over. I I just I just 1258 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 1: don't believe in almost any veteran quarterback when a first 1259 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 1: round quarterback is being brought onto the roster. And I 1260 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 1: don't also don't believe that we're gonna get Cam Newton 1261 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:48,520 Speaker 1: from four years ago right just because they added a 1262 01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 1: couple of tight ends. He threw eight touchdown past his 1263 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 1: last year. This cannot be understated. Overstated eight touchdowns in 1264 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:03,000 Speaker 1: fifteen starts in the NFL in twenty. It's almost impossible. Yeah, 1265 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 1: it is almost. Oh, I got one more. Uh, let's 1266 01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 1: go um. I can't do better season. I think that's 1267 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:15,200 Speaker 1: too tough. But who has who has better numbers? DeVante 1268 01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:18,960 Speaker 1: Smith or Jalen Waddle. I go Smith for sure, I 1269 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:25,520 Speaker 1: think better opportunity versus tongue about loa. Yeah, that's fair, 1270 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:29,280 Speaker 1: but there's more. There's more mouse to feed in Miami, 1271 01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:31,560 Speaker 1: and Waddle seems like he's going to be more like 1272 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 1: a big, big playmaker DeVante Smith maybe catch us some 1273 01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 1: more short routes. He looks like the number one in Philly, 1274 01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,920 Speaker 1: Whereas battles like, yeah, I'll go Smith. I mean, I 1275 01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 1: you know, you could argue for either. I'm going Smith. 1276 01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 1: Smith is the goal for me too. Yeah. I think 1277 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 1: he's gonna They're gonna really work to make that the 1278 01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 1: wide receiver prospect that actually plays out how the Eagles 1279 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,640 Speaker 1: want to, Whereas maybe it's gonna take some time down 1280 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 1: in Miami. And I'm also like that's sold on toa 1281 01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 1: I know that's not a very popular opinion, but not 1282 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:04,720 Speaker 1: I'm kind of with you, Dan, I feel like that's 1283 01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 1: a totally popular opinion. He was totally buried all last season, 1284 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 1: there was very few people. You're gonna get attacked, Chad's 1285 01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 1: gonna come slight your scalp for that. I just think 1286 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 1: there's and there were reasons for the excuses, and they 1287 01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:21,600 Speaker 1: were all valid for the most part. So I'm not 1288 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 1: like killing him saying he can't play. But it's just 1289 01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:25,880 Speaker 1: like that was not a fun guy to watch as 1290 01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 1: a rookie. Uh. The assumption that a few months of 1291 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,600 Speaker 1: the calendar passes and some other players are involved, the 1292 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:33,480 Speaker 1: old sudden He's gonna be dynamic.

Podcast hosts 1297 01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 1: that have a cornhole board hanging on their wall set 1298 01:05:55,800 --> 01:06:00,880 Speaker 1: it at one and a half over under any podcast, 1299 01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:05,120 Speaker 1: any podcast hosts anywhere in their home, not a lot 1300 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 1: like a studio where they do podcast. This is my house. 1301 01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:11,800 Speaker 1: It is in their home, a cornhole board hanging on 1302 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,840 Speaker 1: their wall. Confidently going over because I mean, I don't 1303 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:16,720 Speaker 1: know what we're what is the what kind of like 1304 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 1: it could be anyone with a podcast and they call 1305 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:21,240 Speaker 1: themselves the host of it. We only need to find 1306 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,880 Speaker 1: one more in the entire on the entire globe for 1307 01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:26,160 Speaker 1: that to be. You find guys, if you guys listening 1308 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:28,600 Speaker 1: to the show, and you host the podcast, and you 1309 01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:32,480 Speaker 1: have a cornhole board there, let us know. There we go. 1310 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm going over taking it over comfortably. Just think about 1311 01:06:35,960 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 1: like the Midwest alone, all I would imagine our thousands 1312 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:43,160 Speaker 1: of college football podcasts we were, we were down on 1313 01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 1: the cornhole boards everywhere. But it's it's supposed to be played. 1314 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:50,160 Speaker 1: It's not a decoration. It's like it's it's a you know, 1315 01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:54,200 Speaker 1: nothing's no. This is what's great about it. It's it's functionality. 1316 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,920 Speaker 1: I used I just used it a week ago. I 1317 01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 1: just pulled it off the board, took it out front, 1318 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,320 Speaker 1: through some bags, put it back. So not only is 1319 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:07,080 Speaker 1: the decoration use, it's getting mileage. That's like you know, money. 1320 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:08,960 Speaker 1: You could go play the records behind you on a 1321 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 1: record player if you needed to, so I think it 1322 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 1: would ruin your stylus. I think you would immediately via 1323 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 1: the record store. Brunners. And by the way, they do 1324 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 1: have lines in them. I almost wonder if it is 1325 01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:22,840 Speaker 1: and crack it open. Yeah, there's tracks on the front 1326 01:07:22,880 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 1: side and there are six tracks there, so I don't know, 1327 01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:27,880 Speaker 1: there's only one way to find that. And by the way, 1328 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:31,640 Speaker 1: it's also a nod money to the great Chris Westling 1329 01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:36,600 Speaker 1: who introduced us to Cornell. And also, um, it should 1330 01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 1: be noted that the go fund me for the Westling 1331 01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:43,040 Speaker 1: family Lakish and Link is hitting the three hundred thousand 1332 01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:47,160 Speaker 1: dollar mark and that is a testament all the amazing 1333 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:52,000 Speaker 1: fans of this show and everyone who loved west Uh.
