Speaker 3: Jmac one hour from now.

15
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: Where Colin was right, where Colin was wrong, There's obviously

16
00:00:55,280 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: plenty of both. And you gotta say the Green Bay

17
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: Packers no quarterback. It can be farm it can be Rogers,

18
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: it can be Jordan Love. That second half last night.

19
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 4: Whoo yeah, twenty straight completions.

20
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 5: Woo.

21
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 3: Let's start with that.

22
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: So I saw a headline this morning, up and coming

23
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: Jordan loves Stars as the Packers beat the Steelers. Jordan

24
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: Love second half on the road standalone game against maybe

25
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame coach and a veteran defense that's

26
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: as good as second half and that spot as farvn

27
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: Rogers had, he is elite arm size, mobility, accuracy. Combine

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: that with Matt Lafleur's play design and the green Bay

29
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: smart front office. This is going to be a Super

30
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: Bowl capable winning team for the next five years minimum.

31
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: And last night was very instructive for NFL fans. I

32
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: watched a game between the Packers and the Steelers, and

33
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: I saw smart and progressive and offensively nimble for one franchise,

34
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: And then I also watched the Steelers. I mean, these

35
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: are two franchises going in the opposite direction, with the

36
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: opposite ideology. Aaron Rodgers has done a good job to

37
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,559
Speaker 1: put some makeup on this organization, but need a facelift.

38
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: Two iconic franchises.

39
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: One of them has embraced offense, one as an old quarterback,

40
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: one as a young star. One is loaded with young

41
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: talent at wide receiver and tight end. The other spends

42
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: a fortune on defense. It's revolutionary against the rust Belt.

43
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 1: As Steelers spent all that money on defense, why do

44
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: they tackle so poorly? And for the record, Las Vegas season.

45
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: You know who's favored to win the AFC North this morning,

46
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: the two and five Baltimore Ravens. You can't fool Vegas.

47
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: And you can see it in the Steelers' mentality. First half,

48
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: fourth and three, let's kick a field goal. That's not it, man,

49
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: that's not it. The second half by Jordan Love and

50
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: Matt LeFleur, all time stuff, sixteen to nineteen, outscore the

51
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 1: Steelers twenty eight to nine, passer rating at one forty eight.

52
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: And the Steelers meanwhile dead last and fourth down attempts.

53
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: It's punts and field goals. Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh stuck in

54
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: the wrong era, and it was so instructive to watch

55
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: green Bay, little small market green Bay draft and develop

56
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: and pay. I mean there, you look at what green

57
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: Bay is paying star quarterback Micah Parsons. It's all the

58
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: right stuff, right. There's an offensive lineman making a lot

59
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: of money. There's a coach and a quarterback making money.

60
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: There's a pass rusher making money. Pittsburgh gets old. It's defense.

61
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: Aaron's doing the best job you can to put a

62
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: little makeup on the blemishes, but they need a lot

63
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: more than that. This was about Jordan Love. This is

64
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: what Green Bay does. Pittsburgh doesn't show the urgency at quarterbacks,

65
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: so they end up with.

66
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 3: A forty one year old quarterback.

67
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: Green Bay drafts quarterbacks three years before they need them,

68
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: let them develop, and Jordan Love is no longer up

69
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: and coming.

70
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 3: Stop it.

71
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: He's the top six to seven guy in the league.

72
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 1: He has officially arrived as a star quarterback in this league.

73
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: And here is Matt Lafleuur after.

74
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,119
Speaker 6: It's great for jan Jordan's worked his off to get here.

75
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 6: You know, he was patient throughout the process, throughout the journey,

76
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 6: and he just he took advantage of the opportunity.

77
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: He's a great teammate.

78
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 6: He encourages the other guys, he's a hell of a leader,

79
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 6: and he's really grown as a football player.

80
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no up and coming about it. That second

81
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: half in that space, that defense, that coach, that was

82
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: something else. And I said this last year and I've

83
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: said it a half a dozen times this year. That

84
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: tight end Craft that is a ten year Pro bowler.

85
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: That guy is unbelievable. There's your Travis Kelce. I mean,

86
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 1: that kid is unbelievable. It's amazing where you get these

87
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 1: tight end small schools. Fourth round, George Kittle, fifth round.

88
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: That kid is an all time talent. Way to go Packers.

89
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 3: Well well, well, what do you know?

90
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: As the Packers are surging the rival Bears at the

91
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: most important position and offense, look a little lost. That

92
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: was a bad loss to Baltimore. Lamar Jackson can't play

93
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: and the Ravens still controlled the game straight week or

94
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: is it second straight week? Caleb Williams didn't have a touchdown,

95
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 1: So first, Tyler Huntley.

96
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 3: Deserves a lot of credit.

97
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: The backup quarterback for the Ravens total pro, totally coachable,

98
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: very efficient. That kid seventy seven percent completion percentage of

99
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: no turnovers, never got the Ravens in trouble. Let's let's

100
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: be honest. He was tremendous. He's exactly what a backup

101
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: quarterback should be. Let's give that kid credit. Tyler Huntley,

102
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: you are a pro. You are exactly what I want

103
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: from a backup. I mean he made every time they

104
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: asked him to make a big throw, he did it.

105
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: So let's just not blast Caleb. That is what a

106
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: backup quarterback is. I may need you twice a year.

107
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: Lamar was there high five in him, pro gets the

108
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: playoff in time, made three or four big throws, new

109
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: when to get down, new when to throw it away.

110
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: That's one of the best backup performances you're gonna see. Now,

111
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: let's talk Caleb, because that's what the game was about.

112
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson is a ton and rhythm head coach for

113
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: the Bears, Folks, Caleb is not a timing rhythm quarterback.

114
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 3: It's a weird marriage.

115
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: Maybe it lasts, but they're gonna be in therapy for

116
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: twenty five years. This thing is going to be a

117
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: weird marriage. Caleb. Here's what's worrisome. If you look at Caleb,

118
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: he's very good right in the on script in the

119
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: first quarter, but in the second through fourth quarters he's

120
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: completing fifty eight percent of his throws and it gets worse.

121
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: On the opening drive of the game, Caleb Williams this

122
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 1: year completes eighty one percent of his throws with one

123
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: hundred and eleven passer rating. The rest of the game

124
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: he completes fifty nine percent with an eighty seven passer rating.

125
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 3: You take away that opening drive with.

126
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson and I've said you got the right coach,

127
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: and it gets ugly. I mean the Bears offense. It's

128
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: like that kid when the parents are home. He's fine,

129
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: they leave, go to the grocery store, they come back

130
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: and the house is burned down. You can't script the

131
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: entire game. You gotta be good beyond the first or

132
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: second series. You got to be able to do stuff

133
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: on your road. And he's dynamic. I think he's a

134
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: nice guy. He's got a big arm. He's obviously on script,

135
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: very coachable. But top tier quarterbacks hit the layups, even

136
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: the layups look hard. And that interception by Caleb is

137
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: a prime example. Caleb saw it one way, that interception,

138
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: he saw it one way. Ben Johnson sees this interception

139
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: an entirely different way.

140
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 3: Listen to this.

141
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 5: He undercut the path, the route, and I, you know,

142
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 5: I could have let him know farther out in front

143
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 5: instead of trying to give him a shot right here.

144
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 5: And you know that's that's you know, he did it.

145
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 5: He made a great break on the play. Just unfortunate

146
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 5: where we were in a field in the situation.

147
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have to check it out on film just

148
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 3: one more time.

149
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 5: Just in my mind, there might have been another option

150
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 5: that we could have gotten gotten to.

151
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 3: Not good.

152
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: If I would have told you before the game one

153
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: of these quarterbacks would complete seventy seven percent of his

154
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: throws and have a one hundred and seventeen passer rating,

155
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: you probably wouldn't have guessed. The undrafted career backup.

156
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 3: Not good.

157
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: Again, some marriages need a lot of therapy. And I

158
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 1: think the Bears have to play it out for the

159
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,959
Speaker 1: rest of the year and probably next year. And there

160
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: is a big arm that throw a DJ Moore. It

161
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: could be exciting, It is fun. There are moments he's talented.

162
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that, but the top tier quarterbacks in

163
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: this league all have something in common. Twelve yards and

164
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: under the laps Drake May it's it's easy. I mean,

165
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: it's just really easy looking some of this stuff is.

166
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: It shouldn't be this hard. It shouldn't be this difficult.

167
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: We've seen him to open the season. We've seen them

168
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: with extra time. It just looks all the time. And again,

169
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: first drive, he's one quarterback, rest of game he's another.

170
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: So he's coachable.

171
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: He listens, but you can't hold a hand, you can't babysit.

172
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 3: In this league.

173
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: At some point you're gonna have fourteen possessions twelve are

174
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 1: kind of on you. So I've said before, your eyes

175
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: don't lie. This is not ideal. I mean, and for

176
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: the record, Sean mcvayh chose Jared Goff and he moved

177
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: off him. Ben Johnson didn't choose Caleb. I'm not saying

178
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: there's resentment, but this is a timing rhythm coach. It's

179
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: not a timing and rhythm quarterback. You can win with

180
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: timing and rhythm. You can win Cam Newton got to

181
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. You can win the other way. I think,

182
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: for consistency's sake, you gotta be more timing and rhythm

183
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: than just do it yourself. For the record, Jordan Love

184
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 1: can do the timing and rhythm, but Jordan Love also

185
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: sees the field. He does a lot of stuff on

186
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: his own. So does Mahomes. I mean, the more I

187
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,359
Speaker 1: watch Jordan Love, you know who I see? Patrick Mahomes.

188
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: That's what I see. I'm not saying he's Patrick Mahomes.

189
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: But when I looked at Andrew Luck, I said five

190
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: years ago, I'm like, Sam Darnold is like eighty percent

191
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: of Andrew Luck. He's not as good as Andrew Luck.

192
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: But when I watched Darnold come out. I said, it's

193
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 1: like Andrew Luck not as good when I watched Jordan

194
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 1: Love's size movement arm can follow, coaching.

195
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 3: Can be good. Offscript, I see some.

196
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: Mahomes, some mahomes with Caleb. I don't know exactly what

197
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: I see. I don't I don't quite know the timing

198
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: and rhythm stuff. It said before, it's hard to quarterback

199
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 1: efficiently in the NFL, but it can't look too hard.

200
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 1: Like marriage isn't easy. But if you're in therapy twice

201
00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: a week, it probably isn't gonna work.

202
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 7: Right.

203
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: So that's where we are today, j Mack. Once again,

204
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: here come the Packers surging head it to a Super

205
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 1: Bowl in Chicago's trying to figure out offense.

206
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 4: You know, I saw an interesting stat that Kyle Hamilton,

207
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 4: the great safety for the Ravens, was in the box

208
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 4: on sixty one percent of snaps. So the Ravens said,

209
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 4: we're gonna take away the run game. Caleb, can you

210
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 4: beat us?

211
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 2: Yeah?

212
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 4: He couldn't. He could not do it. You take away

213
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 4: the run game. And by the way, I think you're

214
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 4: letting the Bears defense off the hook, Colin. They let

215
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 4: Tyler Huntley get the Ravens of the red zone six times.

216
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: Well, you know what, you know what it is the

217
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: Bears defense. It's a little fools goal. Yes, it's a

218
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 1: takeaway defense, right, Okay, so when they take the ball

219
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: away they go on a four game winning street. But

220
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: when they don't take it away, they give up like

221
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: six yards of play. And you saw it time and

222
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: time again. Is I mean we got to give credit

223
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 1: to Tyler Huntley. I know he's a backup and he's

224
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: not a star, and he doesn't he's in our business.

225
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: We're not going to talk a lot about him. That

226
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: is exactly what I want. I'm a backup quarterback. That

227
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: was one of the most impressive backup quarterback performances. I mean,

228
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 1: if you didn't know who he was, you'd be like, oh,

229
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: that guy's pretty good. You can win playoff games with

230
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: that guy.

231
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 4: I think the Bears were down a few guys in

232
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 4: the secondary, so like things lined.

233
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 3: Up, the whole league is down Peape. That's the problem.

234
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: You know.

235
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 4: Listen, my Jets put up five hundred yards of offense

236
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 4: and Garrett Wilson didn't even play.

237
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 3: It's like, what where did that come from? Yeah?

238
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: All right, the world's best football team, the Kansas City

239

258
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: it's been brought to my attention that I went four

259
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: and one with a blazing five for the third week

260
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: in a row.

261
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 3: Let's not brag about it.

262
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: Let's just put our head down and try to get

263
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 1: a five and oh week whatever. So Denver, Dallas, Mike Rabel,

264
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: and Sean Payton are proving even if you're saddled with

265
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: dead cap money from Hell or an average roster New England,

266
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: it doesn't take that long to win in this league.

267
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 3: It really doesn't. You watch that game. Denver's got a

268
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 3: lot of really good players, and a lot of them

269
00:14:56,040 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 3: Sean Payton has his fingerprint on Denver's got four different receivers,

270
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 3: won a rookie from Illinois, all long, all run well, all.

271
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: Can catch, and two excellent shifty running backs. For the critics,

272
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: the mock draft critics that criticized the RJ. Harvey picking

273
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: the second round, Eh, he's good too. Bo Nix is young.

274
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 1: He can uncork ugly ones, but sixteen seventeen yards and under,

275
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: he's pretty surgical man, and he's got weapons everywhere. Don't

276
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: put this on DAK. There's nothing DAC could do. There

277
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: were guys wide open. They were missing their top three safeties.

278
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: That's not an excuse. Their defense isn't good with safeties.

279
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: But I've never understood the critics of Sean Payton. The

280
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: Saints were a disaster when he got their worst franchise

281
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: in the league. They made the playoffs the following year.

282
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: I mean, Denver's got the worst dead cap money situation

283
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: in the history.

284
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 3: Of the league.

285
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: This roster is stacked on guys that Sean Payton said,

286
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 1: get me that guy from a directional school receivers, running backs.

287
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 1: I mean they got JK. Dobbins that cost him a

288
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: kitcat bar. They paid nothing. He's now third in the

289
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: NFL in rushing.

290
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 3: JK.

291
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: Dobbins, who, for the record, is a great guy. Easy

292
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: to root for it because of the injuries. But here

293
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: here's the other thing. Pitchburg pays a fortune for defense,

294
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: and they can't stop any good quarterbacks. The Denver offense

295
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: bottom third of the NFL in payroll. They can't spend

296
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: any money on it because of Russell Wilson's contract.

297
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 3: They're not paying for this offense yet.

298
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'm just I love bo Nicks, but

299
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: this Denver Broncos have Sean Payton written all over it.

300
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: And some of these guys, it could have been Bill

301
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: Walsh or Jimmy Johnson or Bill Parcells or Mike Vrabel

302
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: and McVeigh and Andy Reid and Sean Payton. These guys

303
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: can right the ship much faster. The first year. I

304
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: don't care if you're Jimmy or Sean Payton. The first

305
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: year can be bumpy. But Sean's one of those rare

306
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: guys that knows personnel. You could put him watching film

307
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: like a GM.

308
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:06,479
Speaker 3: He knows it.

309
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 1: His footprint is all over this roster. It's almost like

310
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: in Hollywood. If you watch a movie, I always looked

311
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: not at the actors. First thing I always look for

312
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: in a movie is who's the director, Scorsese, Spielberg, Christopher Nolan,

313
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: the Cohen Brothers. Doesn't mean it's gonna win an Oscar.

314
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean Rabel and Sean Payton gonna win a

315
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. But you know the movie's good made, smartly constructed, thoughtful.

316
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: There's nothing Dallas can do. There's nothing Dak can do

317
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: Denver's roster. I said this a couple of years ago

318
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: about Indianapolis. Everybody was banging on Chris Vaalor of the GM,

319
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: and I said, are you watching the same team?

320
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 3: I am?

321
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: I said that last year Coltster got players everywhere. They

322
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: just have to have a competent quarterback. This Denver roster.

323
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: Maybe it's not Philadelphia. Man, they got dudes everywhere. I

324
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 1: mean that receiving core. You can go Courtland's, you can

325
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: go Franklin, the kid out of Illinois, you go Mims, Harvey, Dobbins,

326
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 1: and Bonnicks. Underneath stuff, especially, I think Sean Payton is

327
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: coaching them for the playoffs. He is throwing the ball

328
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: down the field more because he wants this team to

329
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: be able if they go in against the Mahomes or

330
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: a Josh Allen or a Herbert and they trail and

331
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: they have.

332
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 3: To play catch up. I'm watching it.

333
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: I feel like Sean Payton has got his eyes way

334
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 1: down on the horizon that he is forcing Bonnicks get

335
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: it downfield, throw the ball downfield. But I love the roster,

336
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: and I mean, I'm watching that and there's just Dallas

337
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 1: just didn't have the folks. Sean Payton after I wanted to.

338
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 9: Keeping last you know that we went into the game.

339
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 9: We recognized the injuries. There's a lot of injuries, you know,

340
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 9: on our team throughout the league that was unimportant to us.

341
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 9: I just didn't think they could keep up with what

342
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 9: we were doing. So I had said to the defense periodically,

343
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 9: can you guys keep up with us, And yeah, I

344
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 9: thought it was a pretty one sided game.

345
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: I know, you know, I mean, Sean is so blunt

346
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: and so honest. But there's just certain teams you just

347
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: watch them on television and you're like, I mean, how many.

348
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:30,400
Speaker 3: Receivers do they have?

349
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 1: Uh?

350
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 3: Dack did everything he could do.

351
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: But when your trail, big, high altitude, Dallas has never

352
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 1: played well against Denver, you got to go back to

353
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: Troy Aikman the last time Dallas. I feel, honestly, it

354
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: feels like that's the last time Dallas beat him. Denver's

355
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: had their number forever, and yesterday it wasn't particularly close.

356
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 3: Jmack with the.

357
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: News, No turns, this is the headline news.

358
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 4: All right, call, Let's start with the Philadelphia Eagles and

359
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 4: Saquon Barkley. He finally he had a good game, peeling

360
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 4: off a sixty five yard touchdown run on the second play.

361
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 3: From scrimmage, finished with over.

362
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 4: One hundred yards for the first time of the season rushing. Obviously,

363
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 4: sixty five yard was a big chunk of that, but

364
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 4: he did have one hundred and seventy four total yards

365
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 4: two touchdowns. Now, interestingly, Colin, his backup Tank Biggsby came on,

366
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 4: sae Quon kind of left early with an injury, and

367
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 4: Tank Bigsby went for over one hundred and nine carries.

368
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 2: I think that's interesting. Just file that away.

369
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 4: But here is Saquon talking about his best game of

370
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 4: the season.

371
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,399
Speaker 10: A lot of you if I said I didn't, it

372
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 10: wasn't like finally, it's always great to win. It's always

373
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 10: great to be a division viral. You know, for sure,

374
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 10: we definitely saw how they celebrated and you know when

375
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 10: they beat us last time. But I think one of

376
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 10: my favorite things coach Sirianni says is, you know the

377
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 10: verrenge mindset that lasts for five minutes and then it

378
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 10: goes back to your habits.

379
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: Did you notice that it was yards per play total yards?

380
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: It was easily the best Eagles offensive performance and AJ

381
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: Brown did not play.

382
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, they tweaked some stuff, Colin. They went heavy,

383
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 4: they went with three tight end sets. Remember McVeigh tweaked

384
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 4: things in London with the Rams.

385
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: Eagles tweaking.

386
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:15,919
Speaker 2: They went six.

387
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 4: Offensive linemen a lot in this game, sof new look,

388
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 4: and they just kind of bullied the Giants at the

389
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 4: line of scrimmage. I thought about that. Driving into work

390
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 4: this morning, I'm like, I wonder if Colin's gonna say, hey,

391
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 4: they can trade AJ Brown. Look, they can live without him.

392
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 4: It's just one game. It's the largely dumpster fire Giants.

393
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 4: I don't know that I would make any sweeping conclusions.

394
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 4: Is Johan Dotson going to be mossing people all season?

395
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 3: Like that's not happening.

396
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 1: Bro, come on, I will say this, though you're New England,

397
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 1: you're looking at Kansas City, you know, you're looking at Herbert,

398
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 1: You're looking at Josh Allen, and you got young Drake

399
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: May and you're like, well, Vrabel had AJ Brown in

400
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: Tennessee at Carushton when he left, and New England's good

401
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: and they've got a bunch of good b and number

402
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 1: two and three receivers. Boy, it really helped have a

403
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: physical presence on the perimeter with Drake May, who you're

404
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: not paying anything for the next four years, you know,

405
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: and you're gonna ship him to the other conference that

406
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: if you're Philadelphia, you're like, well, you're not gonna get

407
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. He's not gonna come back and

408
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: burn me because you're not getting through Kansas City and

409
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson.

410
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:21,479
Speaker 2: Probably not.

411
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 4: But so the counter would be, why would you mess

412
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 4: with the great juju that.

413
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 3: The Patriots have?

414
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:27,959
Speaker 7: Right now?

415
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 4: Everything's kumba ya. There's no alpha like wide Receiver being

416
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 4: a diva. Do you want to bring that into your

417
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 4: locker room?

418
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 5: Now?

419
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 4: Your counter, of course is Drabel knows him, he's gonna

420
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 4: fall in line.

421
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's a little risky.

422
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,400
Speaker 3: But I don't really get no biscuit. I don't think

423
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 3: AJ Brown is a bad guy.

424
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 4: I've said this about Oh no, no, no, I'm not

425
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 4: saying he's a bad guy.

426
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 3: No no.

427
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: But I'm saying is there are receivers Stefan Diggs AJ

428
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 1: Brown For a couple of years, no big deal, and

429
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: then the drama. I was told a year ago that

430
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 1: there was drama in the locker room. I said it,

431
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 1: and I got a lot of pushback from Eagle fans.

432
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: This thing's been happening for a year. But you know,

433
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 1: you win the Super Bowl, everybody's quiet, it's all great.

434
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden you have struggles. But it's

435
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: not a coincidence. And I remember when Dez Bryant and

436
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott him into the league des is great. Dez

437
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 1: was a touchdown magnet, but in the end they did

438
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: not want Dez getting in Dak's headspace. Every time he

439
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: went to the sideline, they moved off. Dak flourished. This

440
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: is one of these things. This Jalen is an adult.

441
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: He's not going to deal with a drama. He didn't

442
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: have any interest. He just wants to win an AJ

443
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: Brown And I'm not criticizing him for us.

444
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 3: He's a Hall of Famer. He wants touches and the

445
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 3: offense is better without him.

446
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 2: Is he a hall I mean hall of Famer.

447
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 3: I mean he's a Hall of Fame talent. He's a

448
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame.

449
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 4: I don't agree with that.

450
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 3: I would agree with that.

451
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 4: Let's move to college football. Colin not so surprising. Brian

452
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 4: Kelly gets run out of LSU this weekend.

453
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 2: It's funny.

454
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 3: I was watching this game Saturday.

455
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 4: It's eighteen fourteen LSU, and then I start to get

456
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 4: ready for a Halloween party and take a shower and stuff.

457
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 4: I come out and Texas A and M scores like

458
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 4: twenty one in a row, and at that point You're like,

459
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 4: WHOA this is at LSU. Brian Kelly seems to have

460
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 4: lost the locker room, he lost the boosters, and now

461
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 4: he's done Colin. It's over another huge buyout. I think

462
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 4: the number was fifty three million dollars. Was his buyout

463
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 4: larger than James Franklin.

464
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: I had a coach tell me last year. Had the

465
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: coach said, listen, he's mid sixties, that he's a Midwest guy.

466
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: He was ready to retire. He sniffed the NFL about

467
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: five years ago, and the NFL was not interested. He

468
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: was interested. He was kind of done with college. And

469
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: then a company comes up called LSU Football and says, yeah,

470
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: here's you know, here's seventy eighty ninety million dollars. And

471
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 1: he goes to his family and says, you know, we

472
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: can get that second.

473
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 4: Vacation home, second, you mean fifth, you know?

474
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: I mean So the reality is this happens a lot

475
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: where he'd in a success three different programs. He had

476
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: his pensions, he had his money. He sniffed NFL at

477
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. They weren't interested. He was ready to shut

478
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: it down, and then LSU came with a bag of money,

479
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,679
Speaker 1: and he said went to his family and said, guys,

480
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 1: what do you think? And they're like go for a dad.

481
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: It never felt like I love. I think Brian's a

482
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: great coach, but this never felt like a great fit.

483
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: He's a Midwestern guy, and I just think I think

484
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 1: he would have fit at Penn State today better than LSU.

485
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: I think he'd fit at Wisconsin. But he doesn't feel

486
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 1: like USC. He doesn't feel like LSU. There are Miami,

487
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: there are these jobs that they feel like a certain

488
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: personality works. Miami Hurricanes. I think their current coach feels

489
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: like the Hurricanes USC LSU. It is very unique part

490
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: of the country. I think, I think he's a good coach.

491
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: I think he took the job for the wrong reasons,

492
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: and the reason was a bag full of.

493
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 4: Cash with a good football mind, not a great human being.

494
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 2: Colin I was.

495
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,119
Speaker 4: I know a couple of quarterbacks personally who have friends

496
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 4: with they have experiences with Brian Kelly, and I'm just

497
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 4: telling you he is not the nicest, warmest individual.

498
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: Well, he's not a warm, cuddly guy. Generationally, I don't

499
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make judgments on him. I just think generationally,

500
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: the older coaches are louder, They bark their I mean,

501
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: Nick Shaban wins, but.

502
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 2: Steven's not perceived as a jerk. Okay, he gets a

503
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 2: very animator on the sideline.

504
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 4: He'll say tough stuff, but he has been loved by

505
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,719
Speaker 4: his players. Go talk to some former Brian Kelly players.

506
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 4: The stories are going to start to come out from LSU.

507
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 3: They don't like him.

508
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 4: I'm just telling you, he's not a nice guy, Colin.

509
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 4: And when you're not nice and you lose, they're going

510
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 4: to run you out of town. I don't even know

511
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 4: if he surfaces again. Based on what you're saying is

512
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:48,880
Speaker 4: that he was ready to shut it down.

513
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 3: I think he's ready to golf and hang out. He

514
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 3: could go to a mid major and clean up and dominate.

515
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know that he needs that. He's

516
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 3: got one hundred million in the bank. He's not coming back.

517
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 4: By the way, which is a better job LSU or

518
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 4: Penn State ls. Have you seen the national rankings? Eight

519
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 4: teams from the SEC in the top twenty. You know

520
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 4: how hard it is to win at LSU.

521
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: Well, some people are afraid of competition. LSU's got more

522
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: players within an hour of drive of that university than

523
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: Penn State has in the state.

524
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 3: Wow, okay, I'll.

525
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,439
Speaker 4: Take Penn State and I'll see in the playoff if

526
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 4: you take LSU and enjoy seven and five and every

527
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 4: other year.

528
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: Ed Orgeron one of Natty at LSU. Nick Saban won

529
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 1: a Natty at LSU. It's less Miles didn't less Miles

530
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 1: one of Natty at LSU. Okay, where all the where

531
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: all the trophies up up north?

532
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 4: The times they have changed the question.

533
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: The question is is LSU a better job than Florida?

534
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 3: Oh h that's interesting.

535
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: I'm just I would take Florida because I've been to

536
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: Gainesville four or five times. I really like Gainesville, the town.

537
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: I think Gainesville is the most underrated college now in

538
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 1: the country. And it's not like Gainesville is. It's just

539
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:12,679
Speaker 1: like it's more mainstream. LSU is its own thing, like

540
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 1: it's its own thing, and it's all about fit. I

541
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: think a million people could fit it.

542
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 4: I think you could win at Penn State instantly, and

543
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 4: you go to LSU Colin every year. The schedule has

544
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 4: like seven landmines. You have to get Joe Burrow at

545
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 4: quarterback if you want to go win.

546
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 3: Good luck.

547
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 4: Final story Major League Baseball Colin the fun weekend of

548
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 4: the World Series, Dodgers lost Game one badly. Then they

549
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 4: bounced back thanks to Yamamoto with a classic unbelievable all

550
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 4: nine innings allowed one one on four hits with eight k's.

551
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 3: Here's your boy. Dave Roberts on his.

552
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 11: Ass outstanding, uber competitive special. Yeah, he was just locked

553
00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:58,719
Speaker 11: in tonight.

554
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 7: You know.

555
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 11: It is one of those things he said before the series,

556
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 11: losing is not an option, and he had that look tonight.

557
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you something.

558
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: The Yankees and the Dodgers both bid on Yoshi. So

559
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: the Yankee said, we'll give you three hundred million dollars

560
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: and the Dodgers said we'll give you three hundred and

561
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: thirty five million. I'm gonna make an argument that that

562
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: Game two performance and he would pitch I think a

563
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: Game six or a Game seven, but that game, okay,

564
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: he'd pitch Game six. So that performance and the performance

565
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: against Milwaukee, there's an argument that he paid about half

566
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 1: of that thirty five million dollars total contract on those

567
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: two performances. Man, it's amazing to watch his temperament. He

568
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 1: was in total control. Fifth, six, seven, eight, ninth, and

569
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: that is a hard lineup. I mean, at that lineup.

570
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: In Game one, they had a nine run inning.

571
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 4: Okay, I don't know who's more locked in right now,

572
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 4: Yamamoto in the last month or you with blazing five

573
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 4: picks with three straightforward ones.

574
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, Yamamo. I mean he was lights out.

575
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 4: Oh Game three tonight on Fox. My Dodgers in five,

576
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 4: still standing, and we got Otani coming up in game four,

577
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 4: so lock it up.

578
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna I think Toronto's gonna take one

579
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: of the next two games. I think the Jay's are

580
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: a handful, but they're just I mean, this sport.

581
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 3: In the end.

582
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: What I think is fascinating is the Yankees and Dodgers

583
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: both made they both made an offer, and the Dodgers

584
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: upped it. And when you picked the right person in

585
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: pro sports, you know, Jerry Jones always had the great

586
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: line every time I've been you know, try to get

587
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: a bargain. That's exactly what I got. A bargain is

588
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: that this guy is top of the market to go

589
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 1: in to Toronto with that performance.

590
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 3: I sat and watched every pitch. I was just like, wow, do.

591
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 4: You remember the consternation from people around the league that

592
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 4: Dodgers gave him?

593
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 3: How much money?

594
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 12: What is this guy proven to get that kind of money.

595
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 12: What what some teams know? What was Kirk Shilling at

596
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 12: the top of his game? Verlander at the top of

597
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 12: his game? Kersh Off the top of his game. When

598
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 12: you get the superstar, they make everything around them.

599
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: You don't have to go to the bullpen. The bullpen

600
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 1: gets a night off. Now is totally fresh for game three?

616
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: they bring in this older coach. Now one of these fancy,

617
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 1: snazzy hipsters, this older guy from like James Madison, and

621
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: and I'm like, because I thought Indiana was good.

622
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 3: I mean that game wasn't competitive.

623
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: That is coaching and personnel, And you all tell me

624
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: how great the SEC is. I think Indiana, it's Indiana

625
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: better than anybody except Ohio State in the Big Ten.

626
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 3: And it's Indiana better than everybody in the SEC.

627
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 1: Texas A and M's pretty good with a pretty interesting quarterback.

628
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: But the fact that Indiana now is a football power?

629
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 3: What what?

630
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: Huh?

631
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 3: Okay?

632
00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 1: So Aaron Rodgers acknowledged that even though the game was

633
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh, he had to use a silent count because

634
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: there were so many Packer fans at the game, which

635
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: is pretty remarkable.

636
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 3: Two things are true.

637
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: Aaron has been very good for the Steelers offense, and

638
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay made the smart move going with Jordan Love

639
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: over Aaron Rodgers.

640
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 3: They're both true.

641
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: I think Aaron now realizes what we had said before

642
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: he went to Pittsburgh. The Jets and the Steelers. It's

643
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: the same issues defense. First, one's got better ownership, but

644
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's got issues too.

645
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 3: They just have a better infrastructure and ownership.

646
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: But both the Jets Jets feel loose and outdated, and

647
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: so do the Steelers. So I think Aaron's doing as

648
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: much as a forty one year old quarterback can with

649
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: a defensive coach and a team that on fourth and

650
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 1: three either punts or kicksfield goals. They're not a current franchise.

651
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: So that's second half Steeler defense. That's why Pittsburgh lost.

652
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: I put none of it, none of it on Aaron Rodgers.

653
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: Green Bay almost had three hundred yards in the second half.

654
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: So if you look at the three losses for the Steelers,

655
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 1: you know they're giving up thirty plus points, which would

656
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: be fine if you had a bunch of rookies or

657
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 1: you weren't spending any money on defense, but Pittsburgh is.

658
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: So Aaron has the second most touchdown passes in the league,

659
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: completing sixty eight percent of his throws, one hundred and

660
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: four passer rating and sixteen total touchdowns. You would have

661
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: taken that a thousand out of a thousand times, if

662
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: I told you, where is Aaron after seven or eight weeks?

663
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: So Aaron, don't forget this. Aaron's doing all he could

664
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: do with the Jets and the Steelers. The Steelers are

665
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 1: just a better franchise, but they were bad fits. That's

666
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: why I kept saying, over and over, just go to Minnesota.

667
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: I think Aaron Aaron came out and said, I'll take

668
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: ten million bucks. I think Aaron wanted the Vikings. I

669
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: think the Vikings wanted Sam Darnald, and once they weren't

670
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 1: willing to pay more money for Daniel Jones or Sam Darnold.

671
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 1: I think the Vikings had three choices Donald won Jones

672
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 1: to JJ McCarthy three. Aaron was just a fourth choice.

673
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 1: And a lot of that's because Aaron's been prickly and

674
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 1: Aaron sometimes, in my opinion, lacks a little self awareness

675
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: considering how smart he is. You bring in Aaron, it

676
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 1: feels like you're bringing in stuff to the locker room.

677
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: Although I think he's been great in Pittsburgh, he's been great,

678
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: I am. I think he's been tremendous, but he knows

679
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 1: that he's too smart not to know it. Minnesota is

680
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 1: an offensive culture. The Rams, the Chiefs, the Broncos, now

681
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 1: they're just they're different. So I don't think anything any

682
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,320
Speaker 1: of this is on Aaron right now.

683
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 3: This morning I looked it up. The Steelers have the thirty.

684
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 1: Second best pass defense in this league, meaning the Dallas

685
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: Cowboys pass defense looks at the Steelers and goes, no,

686
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: thank you.

687
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 3: That's embarrassing. We know we are not the Steelers pass defense.

688
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:17,879
Speaker 1: So and last night Packer fans, Aaron talked about how

689
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: many of them showed up.

690
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 2: Heard that chant for eighteen years.

691
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 3: So Packer fans travel really well. First time in a

692
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 3: while I've used silent count for a home game. That's

693
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 3: a credit to those Packer fans.

694
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: So it's funny. And I know I'm speaking to some

695
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: of you out there. Have you ever taken a job

696
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: and you kind of know five or six months into

697
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: the job or in Aaron's case, seven or eight games. Yeah,

698
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: I wish, I wish, I wish the other one would

699
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: have opened up. And I think that's where he's at.

700
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:56,760
Speaker 1: I think Aaron's too smart not to know the truth.

701
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: This is the Jets, but a more polished, refined version

702
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: with a better coach. Steelers are the Jets but better? Right,

703
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 1: So Jerry Jones, listen, you watched Micah last night and

704
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: you're like, man, did they steal Micah from Dallas?

705
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 3: No, they didn't. Didn't steal him.

706
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 1: Cowboys got two first round picks and they don't need

707
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: a quarterback, meaning those first round picks next year they

708
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: could get another third, fourth, fifth, sixth. When they made

709
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 1: that Micah deal, it was always going to look great

710
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: for the Packers for the first six months. Get to April,

711
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: Dallas is going to be in a good space. But

712
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones said he he is skeptical that if Micah

713
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: was still a Cowboy, the defense would be great.

714
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 7: If I saw a proposition for us to help this team, well,

715
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,399
Speaker 7: no matter what this score was today, then I would

716
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 7: look at it on the merits. And I'm not trying

717
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 7: to be cute, but that's why you'd go get him,

718
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 7: is that you'd think it could help you defense. One

719
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 7: player we one player away on defense.

720
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 2: I think we're not.

721
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: I've been critical of Jerry Jones, He's one hundred percent right.

722
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: Green Bay didn't steal Micah. They got two first round picks,

723
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: and Micah still to this day, has never been a

724
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 1: great playoff Hedge Rusher, I don't steal anything. This has

725
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: always been the Shack Kobe deal, and I remember having

726
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 1: a source in the Lakers building. They're like, we love

727
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,280
Speaker 1: them both, but if we have to make a choice,

728
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 1: we know it's gonna look awful for a couple of

729
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 1: years until we get Kobe the right running mate. They

730
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 1: did eventually in dassoul and one two titles, but they

731
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: knew initially it was going to look really bad for

732
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: the Lakers because Shack was going to a championship ready team.

733
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 1: Once he arrived, the Cowboys know Micah going to Green

734
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: Bay is a championship ready team. Dallas is not. The

735
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: three things that matter in this league quarterback won one,

736
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: coach two and flexibility three. Dallas had no flexibility. None

737
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 1: could still argue they don't have the right coach. They

738
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 1: got the quarterback, but they had no flexibility. Green Bay

739
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: had the right coach and quarterback, and they had flexibility,

740
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,359
Speaker 1: so they said we'll take Mike and pay for him.

741
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: Dallas had so little flexibility they couldn't afford Derreck Henry

742
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 1: for eight million dollars two years ago when they had

743
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: the worst running back room in the league. I couldn't

744
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: afford it. Jerry's a deal maker. Jerry's like I got

745
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 1: my quarterback and I got my star receiver. It's an

746
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: offensive league. I'll go find an edge rusher. You know what,

747
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: He's right, Go look at this April draft. There's like

748
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 1: six edge rushers in the first round and Dallas has

749
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: two picks, and Dallas doesn't need a quarterback. So Dallas

750
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: is gonna go get an edge rusher and probably a

751
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: corner with the first two picks, solving two issues. So

752
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: Micah to me is Shack when he went to the heat,

753
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, you gotta eat it dirt sandwich for

754
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: a year and a half. You're gonna get crushed by everybody.

755
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: But sometimes you have to make deals as a company

756
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: or as a pro sports team, and you know for

757
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 1: a year you're gonna get shelld But you can't sit

758
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:12,760
Speaker 1: on the sidelines.

759
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 3: You know not, you don't.

760
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: I always say this about college football teams when they

761
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 1: hire coaches.

762
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 3: Don't worry about winning the press conference. Go get the

763
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 3: damn right coach.

764
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: Stop winning about winning the press conference winning, Now hire

765
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: the coach that wins.

766
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 3: For a decade. That's the key, LSU.

767
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: Don't worry about the press conference the day after, worry

768
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: about beating Kirby Smart for ten years.

769
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 3: Colin right, Colin wrong neck,
