1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:19,600 Speaker 1: The volume. What is going on everybody? How are we doing? 2 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 1: Beautiful day, beautiful night. I like every Sunday. I did 3 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: a podcast with Colin after the Bills game, and I 4 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: wanted to do some thoughts as well, so I recorded 5 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: just some big picture stuff. When it came to the Chiefs. 6 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: When it came to the Eagles, I worked for Howie 7 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: and Andy, so I told these guys in twenty ten 8 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: when they hired me, I said, you guys know what, Howie, 9 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna win a Super Bowl, Nick Foles, You're gonna 10 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: play Andy twice in Super Bowl. Andy, You're gonna rattle 11 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: off Super Bowls like you're Bill Walsh or Phil Jackson. 12 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: And I'm just gonna be podcasting about it in Scottsdale. 13 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: So let's all enjoy our life. I got a pretty 14 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: good insight on these two teams. I know a lot 15 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: of people in the front offices, the coaching staff, so 16 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: I feel pretty confident talking about the Eagles and the Chiefs. 17 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: Very excited for obviously coach Reid and Howie. I mean, 18 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: best coach in the league, best GM in the league, 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: and two best teams in the league. So I know 20 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: you can bitch and moan all you want. Washington love 21 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: Adam Peters as well, but their team, I mean, it's 22 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: just remarkable what they accomplished. They even got that far 23 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: in the Bills, man that stinks up again in the 24 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: fourth quarter and just can't get it done. Then just 25 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: can't get it done. So Specnola calling those blitzes. Other 26 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: than that, we're gonna do a lot of podcasts this 27 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: week is keep Rocking and Rolling. I'll dive in on 28 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: tomorrow's show. I just I didn't talk any cowboys on 29 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: this show hiring Brian Schottenheimer, but I'll dive into that 30 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: for Tuesday on my Monday podcast when I record it, 31 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: we'll talk Brian Schottenheimer for sure. So I'm not gonna 32 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: leave you hanging. Colin and I touched on that, which 33 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: I don't think any of us aw comment. But super 34 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: Bowl is here. I think the matchup that a lot 35 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: of people were like, I don't want the Chiefs to 36 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: get well you got the Chiefs. Were people saying them 37 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: about Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods, like I'm just so 38 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: tired of Tiger Woods. I don't know why. I guess 39 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: we said about the Patriots. People said about the Warriors. 40 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: People say that when a team just kicking everyone's ass. 41 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: But make sure you subscribe to the podcast.

I thought the overall reaction and listen, 63 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: no one gets as angry as the referees or the 64 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: officials as your boy right here when he's gambling on 65 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: a game. So I get the emotions being high, and 66 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: I also understand on individual calls that are egregious. I 67 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: thought this conversation, like the Chiefs they've won all these 68 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: games over the last half decade just because of the officials, 69 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: like got a little crazy. I mean, what the fuck 70 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: are we talking about. It's like you think Belichick bent 71 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: over the Colts because the balls were deflated or because 72 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: he had Eric Mangini's signs. I remember some of these 73 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: conversations around the Pats. It's like, guys, they are consistently 74 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: better than these other teams in the big moments. And 75 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: the same can be said for the Kancy Chiefs. And 76 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: that was on full display tonight. When they needed a 77 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: big play, they got it. When they needed a big 78 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: blitz to hit home, they got it. When the Bills 79 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: needed one, they did not get it. Like they had 80 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: a lead in the second half at Arrowhead for the 81 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: second time and what three or four years and couldn't 82 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: get it done enough said, period, point blank, end of story. 83 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: And listen, there have been moments the Patrick Mahomes things 84 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: on the sideline drives me nuts as well. But the 85 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: thing that they're only winning these games and that's how 86 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: it felt because of the officials, is like the conversation 87 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 1: just got lost and I honestly stopped following it on 88 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: the internet when I saw people screaming at chef third day, 89 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't care about any of this, because 90 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: that's not why the Chiefs have been winning. They make 91 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: the critic when they have to, and the Ravens and 92 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: the Bills simply do not. And those two teams view 93 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: themselves as Super Bowl contenders when the year start for 94 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: the last three or four years, and when the dust settles, 95 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: the Chiefs are the only team there and the only 96 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: team to beat them over this run. Post Tom Brady 97 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: is Joe Burrow why because he made big plays that arrowhead. 98 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: The other guys do not. The other teams do not, 99 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: the other coaches do not. They fuck it up somehow, 100 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: slash The Chiefs make place. They're hard to beat. And 101 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: if you are gonna lose to a team, if you're 102 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, if you're Josh Allen, if you're gonna lose 103 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: to Michael Jordan, if you're gonna lose to Tiger Woods, 104 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: if you're gonna lose to Tom Brady, it's not the 105 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: worst thing in the world you would rather lose to 106 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: probably the you know, some of the historic great champions 107 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: that the sport is ever gonna see than just some 108 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: random one off. They are literally beating everybody. Why. They're 109 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: more buttoned up, they're better coached, They're just better than you. 110 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just really that simple. They are just 111 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: better than you. I think sometimes we overthink this stuff, 112 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: like it's like, well, they're just not quite as good 113 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: on offense. Well, yeah, they're defense dramatically better now, and 114 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: in big spots. Their defensive coordinator makes the greatest calls ever. 115 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: And when he has to have it, Andy Reeve's always 116 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: going to get a first down, and when the game 117 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 1: opens up and he gets his first script, it's just brilliant. 118 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: It looks like Bill Walsh in his prime. He's not 119 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: just the best coach in the NFL. He's one of 120 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: the greatest coaches in the history of the sport. He's 121 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: one of the greatest coaches in the history of sports, 122 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelcey and Chris Jones are 123 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: some of the greatest champions we've ever seen. And that's 124 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: who you have to beat. Guys that know how to 125 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: do it, Guys that are comfortable in that moment, Guys 126 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: that have full belief they're going to get it done. 127 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: And the Bills I think are one of the lone 128 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: teams that believe they can beat them. I said before, like, 129 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: I don't think the Ravens think that. I don't think 130 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: I don't think the Eagles are gonna think that when 131 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: they show up. I'm not saying that they can't. I'm 132 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,679 Speaker 1: just saying they're gonna question can we beat these guys. 133 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: I do think the Bills, because they beat him so 134 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: many times in the regular season, at least go into 135 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: the game believing we can beat these guys. Hell, they 136 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: had a lead in the fourth quarter twenty two to 137 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: twenty one, but people at the leads against Michael Jordan, 138 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: people at leads against Tom Brady, and most of the 139 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: time they lost. It's it's pretty crazy. And no one 140 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: plays this team better than the Buffalo Bills. And Sean McDermott, 141 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: who worked for Andy Reid for a long time. My 142 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: first year with the Eagle, Sean McDermott was the defensive coordinator, 143 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: high level cat. I think he's a good coach, but 144 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: like I want to make some grand statement of like 145 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: he's never like I don't know, maybe just no one's 146 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: ever beaten these guys. No, you know, I don't know 147 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: what else to say. I really don't. I don't think like, well, 148 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: they got to make a change at coach. I mean, 149 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: they were winning in the four quarter twenty two to 150 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: twenty one. What else can you ask for? So Andy 151 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: Reid is just he's just an all time great and 152 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: he has this unique thing going where his defensive coordinator 153 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: is clearly one of the greatest defensive coordinators we've ever seen. Right. 154 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: Bill Walsh had George Seffert in the mid eighties, Mike 155 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: Ditka had Buddy Ryan in the mid eighties, Bill Parcells 156 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: had Bill Belichick in the mid eighties. All those guys. Obviously, 157 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: Walsh retires, Seafort becomes a head coach, Buddy Ryan goes 158 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: to the Eagles, and Belichick goes the browns. Andy doesn't 159 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: have to worry about this guy leaving. It is insane 160 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: that every time he calls the blitz in a big 161 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: spot it works. Think of most coaches that are known 162 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: as blitzers, guys that bring pressure. Sometimes they get burned 163 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: dramatically and it loses them a game where it's an 164 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: enormous play in a big spot. It feels like during 165 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: this run that never happens against Spags, his blitz does 166 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: not only work, they like destroy the quarterback or destroy 167 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: the play. It's fourth and five. You're like, this is 168 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 1: a big spot for Josh Allen the Bills. Their season 169 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: is on the line. Even though technically it wasn't it 170 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: kind of was. And then his blitz comes out of nowhere. 171 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: It's not like he even showed it. The corner just 172 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: lined up and then he is in the backfield before 173 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: you even blink. It's like, how does he do this? 174 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: Why can't other people do this? Think how many fans 175 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: of other teams look at their defensive coordinator five games 176 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 1: into the season, be like, I don't think this guy 177 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: knows what he's doing. And you got Spags, who's like 178 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: Bobby Fisher out there playing chess, and then you've got 179 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: an offense in Mahomes that feels like their numbers aren't 180 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: as sexy as they used to be, But are gonna 181 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: make the biggest plays in the biggest moments, and you 182 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: have the best coach, not just in the league, like 183 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: I said, potentially ever, definitely on the short list like 184 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: Andy Reid, win or lose this game is easily on 185 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: the short list with Belichick, Lombardi, Walsh, Like that's the 186 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: group he's in. So Sean McDermott, people are gonna be like, well, what, 187 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: I don't know he's taking on? Just just remove Andy 188 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: Reid and put in someone else. He's taking on Vince Lombardi, 189 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: He's taking on Bill Walsh. Like would anyone I like 190 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: Sean a lot if I had the opportunity to hire 191 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: Vince Lombardi or Bill Walsh or Sean McDermott, who are 192 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: you taking You could say the same thing about John 193 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: Harbaugh last year. It's not a fair fight. This guy's 194 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: way better than you. There's a discrepancy at coach Andy's 195 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: all time and he's in the peak of his powers 196 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: with the best player he's ever had and obviously the 197 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: best team he's ever had. And you know, I think 198 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: Jim Johnson, who was an elite defensive coordinator who taught Spags, 199 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: who was a lot likes Fags, brought the heat. The 200 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: difference was those teams were awesome too. They had Donovan 201 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: McNabb this team as Patrick Mahomes. I think if you 202 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: take Patrick Mahomes this version in the last five years 203 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: and put him on those Eagles teams, they probably win 204 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: a couple of Super Bowls. Maybe Tom Brady doesn't win 205 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: all the super Bowls in the early two thousands, maybe 206 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: Andy Reid wins a couple of them. That's the difference. 207 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: Belichick had Brady, he had Donovan McNabb. Donod mcnapp was 208 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: a good player, really good player, pro Bowl level guy. 209 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: He ain't this so like when you give an all 210 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: time great coach an all time great quarterback, they're going 211 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: to rattle off super bowls. That's what happened with Belichick, 212 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: That's what happened with Walsh, That's what happened with Jimmy Johnson, 213 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: That's currently what's happening with Andy Reid. And it's remarkable 214 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: to watch if you like sports. I didn't have a 215 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: dog in this race. I picked Buffalo. I ended up 216 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: not betting on them because I used all my money 217 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: in my account a couple of thousand dollars on the 218 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: Tory Pines golf tournament, and I thought it was a 219 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: lock and it was up until the last and so 220 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: I didn't have any money and I was like, I'm 221 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: not doing this. It would have all been put on Buffalo. 222 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: So it would have been back to back years betting 223 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: against Chiefs. You bet against the Chiefs, you lose. There's 224 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 1: just like you're an idiot. I mean, you bet against 225 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, you lose. You bet against Michael Jordan, you lose. 226 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: You bet against Tiger Woods, you lose. That's where we're at. Now. 227 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: You bet against Andy Reid, You're gonna lose, like no one. 228 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: I think the Eagles are pretty good. And I worked 229 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: for Howie Roseman like he's elite. I just watched the 230 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: Red Sox Yankee documentary. I think it was on Netflix 231 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: maybe Amazon Prime. It was awesome a lot about theo Epstein. 232 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: There are some parallels there with Howie. Now, I don't 233 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: know if there are personalities parallel each other perfectly, but 234 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 1: in terms of how good they are at their job. 235 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: When I think about the Chancy Chiefs, I think Andy Reid. 236 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: When I think about the Philadelphia Eagles. I think Howie 237 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: Roseman and how he's intense. He is go go, go, 238 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: one hundred miles an hour. It's an intense environment to 239 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: work for, but holy shit, he's good at his job. 240 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: And what the Chiefs have done as they turned over 241 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: this roster and they become a defensive team and a 242 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: little less sexy on offense. You know Howie I said 243 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,599 Speaker 1: this a couple weeks ago. His moves changed the franchise 244 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 1: one after the Doug Peterson, Carson Wentz, Nick Foles kind 245 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: of era. As they transitioned, they made a massive pivot 246 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: when they picked Jalen Rager over Justin Jefferson. It was 247 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: like a, you know, an eye opening moment for their 248 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: front office, scouting department, and their organization. And they basically said, 249 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: never again, we are not going to overthink this. We 250 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: are going to take the best players from the best 251 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: programs and over a couple of years stretch That's exactly 252 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: what they did. Devonte Smith Alabama, Landon Dickerson Alabama, Jalen Carter, Georgia, 253 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis, Georgia, Nolan Smith, Georgia, sign Saquon Barkley number 254 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: two overall pick Penn State, even Jalen who I thought 255 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 1: was a little bit of an overdraft Alabama, Oklahoma, We're 256 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: not gonna draft, Well, this guy might be pretty good 257 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: from Texas Tech. Sometimes it works, you get Patrick Mahomes. 258 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: A lot of times it does not. Take the best 259 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: players from the best programs and limit your chances of 260 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: whiffing on a guy. And the Eagles, when you watch 261 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: their team, you're like, holy shit, they're good and this 262 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: team is loaded with moves he made. And last year, 263 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: and I saw someone tweet this, they were very very 264 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: close from firing Nick Sirianni and hiring Bill Belichick. That 265 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: almost happened basically a year ago to day, within a 266 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: week or two sometime in the middle of January, right, 267 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: and they didn't, and they stuck it through. Well, what 268 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: does Jeffrey Lury do a really good job of pay 269 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: premiums when he needs to. He gives Vic Fangio for 270 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: and a half five million dollars a year. He pays 271 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore three and a half four million dollars a year. 272 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 1: So he has two coordinators making a combine eight nine 273 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: million dollars. And listen, Sirianni, the guys like him he's 274 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: a high energy, positive guy. I'm not really sure what 275 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: he's doing. Doesn't totally matter why because they have a 276 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: high priced offensive coordinator, they have an elite defensive coordinator, 277 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: and they have an elite general manager. You could argue 278 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: the Eagles are the only team in the league where 279 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: the owner would be comfortable paying the general manager much 280 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: more than the coach. Nick Sirianni should not make more 281 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: than Howie, even though he probably does, just because his 282 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: position pays more than GM. Even of how he's one 283 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: of the highest paid gms. I might be five or 284 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: six million dollars. Low paid coaches make seven. But when 285 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: you watch today, anyone in the league could have had 286 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: sakuon Barkley. They gave him twenty seven million dollars. Eight 287 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: teams passed on Jalen Carter, and I get why some 288 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: of them did it risk This guy's not gonna fit 289 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: in our organization. Every time you watch them play, he's 290 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: like the best player on the field. No guard can 291 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: block the guy. It's why, way too early look ahead. 292 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: That defensive line for the Eagles, which has really come on, 293 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: is going to be a tough matchup for the Chiefs. 294 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: It is, especially you know Nolan Smith's coming on Jalen Carter, 295 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: like they got some dudes, and it's because of Howie Roseman, 296 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: like think about this draft. He was patient. He got 297 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: a little lucky because all the quarterbacks went and no 298 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: one took defensive players, and he got the best corner 299 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: in the draft by a mile. And then he trades 300 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: up in the second round and gets Cooper Dejean, who, listen, 301 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: everyone likes making fun of all this white corner who 302 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: I don't know is awesome and is a plug and 303 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: play starter at nickel, which in the NFL is a starter. 304 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, in his draft, he gets 305 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: Mitchell starting outside corner. He gets Cooper Dejean starting nickel. 306 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: The previous year he drafted Jalen Carter, who's one of 307 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: the best defensive linemen currently in the NFL. He had 308 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: to Saquon Barkley this offseason. It's like, that's kind of 309 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 1: why they're teams so awesome right now because last year 310 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: their DB's sucked and Saquon Barkley has chained a franchise 311 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: ran for a couple thousand yards. Today first carry goes 312 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: for fifty five sixty yards touchdown sets the tone for 313 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 1: the game. And one thing and I mentioned this with 314 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: Colin that I learned when I was in Philadelphia and 315 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: Andy Reid, Todd Howie, offensive line, defensive line, defensive line, 316 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,719 Speaker 1: offensive line. It's why listen, look ahead at this draft. 317 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 1: If I'm the Titans and I am not going to 318 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: take a quarterback, under no circumstances, can I take I 319 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: love Travis Hunter, He's one of the most remarkable prospects 320 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. But Abdual Carter's an elite prospect as well. 321 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: It is a no brainer. You take the guy at 322 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Obviously you take a quarterback. But 323 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: if you're not comfortable taking one of the quarterbacks, take 324 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: an offensive lineman or take a defensive lineman, because that 325 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: is where the game is won. Think about what the 326 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: Chiefs did. They traded Tyreek Hill, they added McDuffie, and 327 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: they added Karlovski's. They didn't go draft another wide receiver. Well, 328 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: they did this upcoming year at the end of the 329 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: first round in Xavier Worthy, which I think today and 330 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: I mentioned this with Coward, It's like, can imagine being 331 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: Bills fan. I'm watching Xavier Worthy this last month? Really, 332 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: come on, It's like we traded that pick with the Chiefs. 333 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: Couldn't we just have taken Xavier Worthy And I like 334 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: Kean Coleman. But all these games come down to because 335 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: the NFL, you're constantly churning your roster. You're constantly getting 336 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 1: new guys on the team in the offseason, in the draft, 337 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: in free agency, you know, in training camp, so year 338 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: to year, your team's change. DeAndre Hopkins wasn't on this 339 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 1: team last year. Savior Worthy wasn't on this team last year. Right, 340 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt wasn't on this team last year. You I 341 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: know he's been on the team before. But like you 342 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: add new players, you get new and your general managers, 343 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: your team building matters so much. Look at the Chiefs. 344 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: They drafted an offensive tackle in the second round. They 345 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: thought the guy could be the starter, and then they 346 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: found out he could not be the starter. Maybe one 347 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,479 Speaker 1: day he'll be ready, but right now he wasn't ready. 348 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: So what did they do. They pivoted, and they pivoted quickly. 349 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: And I think both these two guys, Andy and Howie, 350 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: and I listen, I spent two years when I worked 351 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: in the office before I did college scouting. Like I 352 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: was around how he a lot. My first year when 353 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: I was like the lowest guy in the totem pole, 354 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: I was essentially how he's assistant. It is an intense place. Honestly, 355 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: a couple weeks in, I'm like, I don't know if 356 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make it. I it really crossed my mind, 357 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: like I don't know if I can do this. It 358 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: was just my stress levels, the intensity, the pace in 359 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: which how he operates. It's just the NFL, the pressure 360 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: you felt. There was a scene tonight when the Eagles 361 00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: won the conference, right, and they they have this libration 362 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field, and they got Jeffrey 363 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,719 Speaker 1: Luriy up there on the stage even before when he 364 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: was going up with a couple of minutes left, putting 365 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: in the face of every one more game, one more game, 366 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: Like it's not like Jeffrey Lurry's just content with winning 367 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: the NFC. Like he was pretty out of that. He 368 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: was barely smiling. And I remember in a documentary about 369 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: the Raiders when when the John Madden the seventies Raiders 370 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 1: finally won the Super Bowl, and in the locker room 371 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: after they had finally won a Super Bowl, and like, 372 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: I think it was seventy five against the Minnesota Vikings, 373 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: and Al Davis went up to Kenny Stabler, the quarterback, 374 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: and said, like, are you ready to do this again 375 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: next year? And Kenny stable, and he was interviewed for 376 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: this documentary, he's like, I remember thinking like, ow, we 377 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: just won the Super Bowl? Can you just enjoy it 378 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: for ten minutes? And there's an element of the Eagles that, 379 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 1: like I remember thinking like that kind of reminds me 380 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: of the Eagles, just like next day, next thing, next day, 381 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: Like these guys don't celebrate things long. You know, Andy's 382 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: probably a little happier than kind of the Eagles operation. 383 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 1: Not that the Eagles aren't happy, but like both these 384 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: two operations are going to be one hundred percent like 385 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: onto the next opponent at six in the morning, Monday morning, 386 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: Like this is not a world of celebratory forever, like 387 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: most fans, like fans are gonna be happy as a pig, 388 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: and shit, if you're a Chiefs fan or an Eagles 389 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,239 Speaker 1: fan all week for the next two weeks. It's not 390 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: really how you think, you know, when you're a coach, 391 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: when you're a GM, you're just onto the next thing. 392 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:35,959 Speaker 1: You're scouting, staff's at the Senior Bowl, like, what do 393 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: we have to do? What scheme do we have to run? 394 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 1: How do we slow down Saquon Barkley. These guys are 395 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: just intense man, and I think how he is easily 396 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: the best general manager in the NFL. I think his 397 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: combination of understanding elite talent, understanding team building, of where 398 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: he when he started to where he's at now. The 399 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: depth they have at the line of scrimmage. I mean, 400 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 1: think about today. Their centers hurt, can't start the game. 401 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: They have to mix and match. Dickerson goes to center, 402 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: he gets hurt, he's battling through with a bad knee, 403 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: comes out of half, he can't go, So then Jurgensen 404 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: comes back in with a bad back, and it's like 405 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: they just got plenty they have, I mean the amount 406 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: of players they have. Half the teams. I watched the 407 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: NFL for eighteenth straight weeks. Some teams lose one offensive 408 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: line and the whole thing fucking falls apart. And that 409 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: there's a depth to the way these two guys do 410 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: it because they just focus on the line of scrimmage 411 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: and they value coordinators like Steve Spagnola and Vic Fangier 412 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: are the highest paid coordinators in the NFL. Liam Cohen 413 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: was going to join that list until he got the 414 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: Jags job. But I just the talent discrepancy in the 415 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: game today was really really wide, and we knew that 416 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: going in. It's like, I just Jayden has to be remarkable, 417 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: and he was for a lot of the game, but 418 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: they just they're in a gunfight and they got a 419 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 1: revolver and the other team as an oozy. It's like 420 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be really hard to take down the dude 421 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: with the oozy. And that's what it felt like watching 422 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: the Eagles, like the Bills, I don't think are as 423 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 1: talented as the Chiefs, but because of Josh, but because 424 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: like they're just mentally tough, they've been through the ringer. 425 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: Like that game was close for a reason. Just two 426 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: well coached teams. They're tough, they've played in a lot 427 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: of big games, they have a superstar quarterback Washington. I mean, 428 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: that looked that wasn't even a fair fight. I thought 429 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: it was crazy that the game was even that close. 430 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: So I just, you know, Sirianni, he's taking a lot 431 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: of shit over the years, and rightfully, so again, I 432 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: have nothing against the guy person. I don't totally know 433 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: what he does, but he clearly rallies the troops and 434 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: guys like him. And you know when he was up 435 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,959 Speaker 1: there with Jeffrey Lurry and he's hyping up jaling her. 436 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: He's good with relationships, and he gets credit for letting 437 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: his coordinators cook and being a positive influence on the building, 438 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: and clearly how he likes him and people in the 439 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: building like him like he's a good guy. He just 440 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: gets emotionally spent, and that's you know, big Dom going 441 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: back to another Super Bowl. One of his roles is 442 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 1: to keep him calm. But I'm excited. A lot of 443 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: people were poop pooing this matchup. I don't want Chiefs. 444 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 1: I don't want the Eagles again. Now, these are two 445 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 1: best teams. I mean, Eagles clearly the best team in 446 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: the NFC, and the Chiefs fucking earned it. I mean 447 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: this is back to back years. Last year on the 448 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: road at Buffalo, on the road against the Ravens, this 449 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: year the Texans, but then taking on that Bill's team 450 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: who just threw the kitchen sink at him. And it's 451 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 1: just not enough. And I'll never say again that you 452 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: just Chiefs man, they just they just find a way 453 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: and they covered too, because they were one and a 454 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 1: half point favorite and they win by three. So congrats 455 00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 1: to Andy Reid, Congrats to the Chiefs, Kingdom Grass, to 456 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: everyone in Philadelphia. Just one game left and let's enjoy it. 457 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: We're obviously gonna talk a lot about it brings back 458 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: some memories. I'm excited for all my buddies. Try to 459 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: get a ring if my friends have worked for the Chiefs, 460 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: I mean, they have an unlimited amount of rings, so 461 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: this is just like an extra ring for the for 462 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 1: the trophy case. But the Eagles, this would be a 463 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: big moment. This is I mean, this is a big 464 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: game for both teams obviously. I mean the Chiefs are 465 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: chasing such a historic historic like no one's ever winning 466 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: three straight Super Bowls. It's never happened before, and if 467 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: it happens this time, no one's ever duplicating that again 468 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 1: like that, that's impossible. It's insane that the Chiefs are 469 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: even here. But this would be a big moment for Philly. 470 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: Their second super Bowl in less than a decade. They've 471 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: been to three during that span. They've won them with 472 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: two different quarterbacks, and like I said, I mean, I'm 473 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: not trying to get how he raised here or anything, 474 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 1: but I don't see how if I was having Rooseveuld, 475 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,959 Speaker 1: I'm like twenty million dollars general manager. I mean, Jeffrey, 476 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: look at his team I built. I mean, holy shit. 477 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: And if we're the team of the Beast Chiefs, enough said, 478 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: NFL playoffs.

I'm 505 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 2: gonna do a little middle Coff mail bag. I'm recording 506 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: this mail bag before the Conference Championship games. I just 507 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 2: have so many questions from the people out there at 508 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 2: John Middlecoff. At John Middlecoff, easiest way to get involved 509 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 2: in the thing called the mail bag, I thought, let's 510 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: just bang out some questions so you know the context 511 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: of these games. Anything related to any of those players 512 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 2: obviously will not be factored in here because I think Eddie, 513 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 2: who asked this question about Jalen Hurts and Dak, gives 514 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 2: some context here though. Dak, I mean this is Jalen's 515 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 2: second conference championship game. 516 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: Dak obviously never been past the second round. But now 517 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 1: he's got a new coach. We'll get into that as 518 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: the week goes on. I'm sure, but my buddies call 519 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: me a Jalen Hurts meat writer. I think that means Penis. 520 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: But can you settle out of debate once and for all? 521 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: Is Hurts better than Dak? Question for the mailback, Well, 522 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: I think when you look at Jalen and when you 523 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: look at Dak, they're completely different players. I mean, Dak 524 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five moving forward, and really he's been 525 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: this way since he shattered his ankle. Is not some 526 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:04,239 Speaker 1: dynamic athlete playmaker. He's a pocket quarterback. And as a 527 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: pocket quarterback, is he better than Jalen Hurts? Now? Jalen, 528 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: when he's healthy, is a much more dynamic runner. You know, 529 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: Jalen can turn into a running back, you know when 530 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: he's right. In terms of he's not like super fast 531 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: like Lamar Jackson or Jaden Daniels, but his instincts as 532 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: a runner are elite angles, just movement in space, and 533 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: to me, throwing on the run deep throwing on the 534 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: run is something Jalen does really really well. What's up, John? 535 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: Got a question for you. I was listening the other day. 536 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I probably wouldn't really want either, but I 537 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: think neither team would probably trade their guy for the other. 538 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: I was listening the other day. Maybe the Eagles. Well, 539 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was listening the other day. I 540 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: heard you say that it has never been easier to 541 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: play quarterback in the NFL. With that being the case, 542 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: why do you think we don't see guys getting up 543 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 1: there in the higher four for TD passes as much 544 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: as we did with guys like Breeze, Brady, Manning, Packers 545 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: AR twelve, Which you would think that, especially with the 546 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: added game, that Peyton's record would have been broken by now. Well, 547 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: I think it's twofold one. I do think it's objectively 548 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: a fact it's never been easier. You are protected at 549 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: much higher rates. I saw someone put out a reel 550 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: of Tom Brady, uh, you know, making fun. Basically it 551 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: was like a real meme making fun of Patrick Mahomes 552 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: and all the hits he takes and the flags he gets. 553 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: I mean Tom in the two thousands used to get oh, Mike, 554 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: it's crazy. The violence in the NFL fifteen to twenty 555 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: years ago, it's not even comparable to now in terms 556 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: of hitting the quarterback. It was unflagged. It was just 557 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: it was called football. The other thing, one hundred percent 558 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: you can get away with now are the flags throwing 559 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: the ball down the field, right. They used to be 560 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: called hospital balls. Now they're just called minimum fifteen year 561 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: old penalties. But just because it's easier to play foot, 562 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: you know, quarterback, doesn't mean that guys are better at 563 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: playing quarterback, you know, Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar. I would 564 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: say Herbert the top quarterbacks could have played in any era. 565 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: But some of these guys, I think it's more than 566 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: questionable how good they would have been way back in 567 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: the day. I think Jalen's a good example. It was 568 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 1: hard to play like he plays, you know, just takes 569 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: a lot of hits. Can't throw from within the pocket, 570 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 1: run all the time, You're gonna get crushed. Lamar is 571 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: such an elite athlete that he can avoid some of it. 572 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: But some of these quarterbacks, you know, like is he 573 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: as good as Roethlisberger was in his prime? Or Philip Rivers. 574 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: It's just a different game. So it's hard like to 575 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: even compare eras because it's completely different. It is just 576 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: completely different. So I think, you know, Mahomes has had 577 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: seasons where he's thrown for a lot of touchdown passes. 578 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: With Tyreek Hill, I think you know, listen, you throw 579 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: for thirty five to forty touchdowns, it's a lot. If 580 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: we have a ton of quarterbacks thrown for forty five 581 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: to fifty touchdowns, we got a problem because we should 582 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: be able to play some defense. Mailbag draft slash. The Jets, 583 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 1: who actually on was that Saturday, hired a general manager 584 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: that I'll be honest, had never heard of. But I mean, 585 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: there are a lot of guys in the NFL I've 586 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: never heard of. But congrats on the Jets. They got 587 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: their coach, they got their gym. I got no dog 588 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: in the fight. I'm surprised we've never heard anything of 589 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: Jordan Travis's contingency plan for when Rogers leaves the Jets. 590 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: Didn't he fall to the third round because of his 591 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: injury at Florida State seems like a forgotten name who 592 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: was one of the better college quarterbacks during a fourteen 593 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: playoff before getting hurt in the last game. Well, I 594 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: think he went later than the I could be mistaken, 595 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: but Jordan Travis got drafted in the fifth round. So 596 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: he's a fifth round pick who had a major leg 597 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: injury in twenty twenty three. So I think there are 598 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 1: questions about I'm trying to find what the injury was. 599 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: So he was fighting for exturee yards but a defender 600 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: used the hip drop tackle left leg, causing his ankle 601 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: to be twisted. An air cast place was carved off. 602 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: It was announced that he had season ending college football. Yeah, 603 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if there was ligament damage. I remember 604 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: it being pretty bad now. When Jordan Travis was healthy, 605 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: I liked the player like he was a solid player, 606 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: but I never viewed him as an NFL starting quarterback. 607 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: You know, good athlete, average arm. Before he got injured, 608 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: he had twenty touchdowns, two interceptions. He was doing a 609 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,959 Speaker 1: good job obviously not turned the ball over the previous 610 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: year for Florida State when they went ten and three 611 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: twenty four and five. I always viewed him as like 612 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: a solid player, a guy that can compete to be 613 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: a backup in the NFL. But I didn't see NFL starter. Now, 614 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: if he was healthy, which he might not have been, 615 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: I guess I would have played him the last couple 616 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: of weeks. They clearly did not. They went with Rogers. Now, 617 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: maybe it's because Rogers might retire, so give him just 618 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:13,919 Speaker 1: some games. But overall, I don't know, man, I don't 619 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: see it. Now. I'm not acting like I'm Bill wallsh here, 620 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: but in my eyes, and I watched a lot of 621 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: Florida State because my guy de I call him de Ray. 622 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: But Derek Ray was the GM obviously terrible season, I mean, 623 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: coming off a rough season, had him on the pod, 624 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 1: did not go well. Previous two years though ten and 625 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: three and with Jordan Travis at quarterback ten and three, 626 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 1: eleven and zero. I don't know. I don't see it. 627 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: I can't imagine that the Texans let Slowick go. That's 628 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: another story. I mean, the amount of stories that dropped 629 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,439 Speaker 1: Friday night was we will get into. I'm not gonna 630 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: get in depth about my take on Brian Schottenheimer, but 631 00:34:55,000 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 1: Slowick and Brian Schottenheimer hired Slowick fired Friday afternoon, Friday. 632 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean for Schottenheimers hired Friday night is the ultimate like, 633 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 1: we don't want the pr on this, we want no 634 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: part of this. Uh the slow thing. I was in 635 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: a car. I mean, uh so he may well just 636 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: been announced by the time you read this. My two 637 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,439 Speaker 1: cents worth, what was the Texans biggest offensive problem this year? 638 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 1: The poorest O line? Which the O line coach has 639 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: the best, most consistent protection record, Aaron Kramer, check out 640 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: his history all the best, David. Uh, I was in 641 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: the car. I think when this got announced on Friday afternoon. 642 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 1: And I don't know if I haven't seen this CJ quote, 643 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: So I'm not trying to push disinformation here, but I 644 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: did he say something or did a story leak about 645 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 1: c J. Stroud not loving the scheme or not being 646 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: on the same page with Slowick. You don't fire the players. 647 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: You're clearly not gonna fire c J. Stroud, But anytime 648 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 1: you get sacked a million times, it's gonna be a problem. 649 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: And if you're not winning at the highest level, when 650 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: your star quarterback is getting destroyed, pressure gets put on 651 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator and you look back, Bruce arians they 652 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: won the super Bowl in Pittsburgh. They won a super 653 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: Bowl in Pittsburgh, but the Rooney family, Mike Tomlin didn't 654 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 1: like how often Broethlisberger got hit and how often they 655 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: passed the ball. And I think when you look at Slowick, 656 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,399 Speaker 1: I don't know if he lost his mojo. If it's 657 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 1: as simple as the line just played really poorly, but 658 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: his quarterback was getting destroyed and like ultimately, his personnel's personnel, 659 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 1: so it's on him to kind of adapt, and he 660 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: clearly could not. So I'm not acting like he deserved 661 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: to get fired, but it was not going well, and 662 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: it was not going well at all when it comes to, 663 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: let's face it, that they have some fantastic pieces in 664 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: that organization. No one is more important than the quarterback. 665 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: When the quarterback is getting destroyed, you're gonna be under 666 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: the gun, even if you've I mean, he's been the 667 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: offensive last two years. They've won two PLAYFF games, and 668 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 1: that was Demko's guy. So I think it's fair to 669 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: say that this was quarterback owner. I mean, unless Demko 670 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,720 Speaker 1: and Slowak have kind of fallen out of favor. Little 671 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 1: surprised because I mean it's announced on Friday they had lost. 672 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: When did they lose? Who'd they lose to. I'm trying 673 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 1: to think, Oh, yes, Chief Saturday. So I guess it's 674 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 1: not as crazy. It's not like they lost the first round. 675 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: But they wouldn't have known this Monday or Tuesday. Was 676 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 1: this a conversation going back and forth. Was this where 677 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 1: they kind of looked at each other and realized we're 678 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 1: not going to fix our differences. I don't know. A 679 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: little bizarre to me question for the pot. As a 680 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 1: twenty two year old who lives in Orange County, California, 681 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: I've been trying to convince my fiance to move to 682 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:46,839 Speaker 1: Arizona for the last couple of months because for our 683 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: generation it's nearly impossible to buy a home here. What 684 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: are some things your wife likes about Arizona that I 685 00:37:54,680 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: can use to try and convince her to make the move, Specifically, 686 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 1: Orange County Newport Beeacia pretty expensive place. I would say this, 687 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 1: I've been alive a little bit longer than you, and 688 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: my advice would be you can't force in situations like 689 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: this with relationships, specifically with moving or going to a place. 690 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,360 Speaker 1: I've been around long enough to see relationships of other people. 691 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: It's never happened to me. But when someone makes a 692 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: move that they didn't want to do and the other 693 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: person wants, it can create resentment and it can create 694 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: a lot of problems. Even though it's not like you're 695 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: moving to Arizona, I assume because you've got family, so 696 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: you both would be starting from scratch. But if you 697 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: want to do it and she doesn't, it's very hard 698 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 1: to convince a human being. So like, you can't force 699 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 1: her to do something she doesn't want to do. Even 700 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: if you do have the power to do that and 701 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: you succeed, it will create problems. I promise you that 702 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: if she doesn't like it, So if she's not comfortable 703 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 1: with moving to whether it's Arizona, whether it's Texas, whether 704 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: it's fucking Alaska, it will not matter. So the only 705 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: way to convince her is to kind of have her 706 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: on the same page. Now, she might want not want 707 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 1: to do it as much as you, but if she 708 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: is not on board and is pushing back, it's gonna 709 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: be a problem. Now. I think the best advice I 710 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: ever got years ago was I used to go to 711 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 1: kind of this family doctor get you know, yearly physicals, 712 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 1: and he's based out of Davis, California, SUTTERA Davis and 713 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: wise dude, been in the Army, been around, he's and 714 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: I was telling him my plans to move to Arizona 715 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: and he'sa liked here's what I recommend because he had 716 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: a lot of knew a lot of people over the 717 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: years that made professional moves and hated it. And he's like, 718 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: just go there for a couple of months and rent, 719 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 1: Just go there and feel it out. And I would say, 720 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: whether it's Scottsdale, whether it's Vegas, whether it's wherever you 721 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: want to go, just try something out. And you're twenty two. 722 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: You guys have your whole life at aby, so you 723 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 1: don't have to make any crazy I mean unless you 724 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: start making serious coin. Are you going to buy a 725 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,359 Speaker 1: pad in Newport Beach, No, you're just not. I mean 726 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: those prices are you know, some of the most expensive 727 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: real estate in the in the world, So you're not 728 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: going to be able to buy a home where you're 729 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: probably want to buy a home. But it's like where 730 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 1: I live in Scotsdale, it's expensive too. I mean it's 731 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 1: expensive any area that people are moving to. So it's 732 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 1: it's that's not going to change. But I say this 733 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: all the time, wherever you live, and I've lived in Fresno, 734 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 1: I've lived in Kansas City, I've lived in Philadelphia, I've 735 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,839 Speaker 1: lived now in Arizona, I've lived in California. Like, your 736 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: life's kind of your life, so you want to be comfortable. 737 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 1: Like I think it's easier for humans that are wired 738 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: like me, Like I could be pretty unfazed living most 739 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: places because I'm a pretty consistent, routine oriented human. But 740 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: I think sometimes people that like to socialize or people 741 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: that are kind of busy by where they live kind 742 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: of matters. And especially with a woman, if she's pushing back, 743 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 1: it could go really really bad. And it's not like 744 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,279 Speaker 1: you know, at your age, it's hard to put into 745 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:14,879 Speaker 1: context money stuff. It just is. I mean, you just 746 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: you haven't been in the real world long enough. I 747 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 1: would imagine high school and then college, Like it's just 748 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:22,319 Speaker 1: it's a lot different after ten years in the real 749 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 1: world and you're thirty years old and you kind of 750 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 1: realized this is what cost is how much we can make. 751 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: This was my earning potential. And I don't put a 752 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: cap on your earning potential because it shouldn't be one. 753 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: But it's if she's not on board, it would only 754 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: create problems. So I don't I don't have a great 755 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 1: idea because when I came here, Marie already lived here. Maria, 756 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: who's from northern California, I had lived here since like 757 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. She had lived here five years before I 758 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 1: even got here, so I didn't have to convince anything. 759 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:52,359 Speaker 1: And she told me early on, like I'm not doing 760 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 1: some long distance like you either come here or not. 761 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, honey, like I planned on coming here 762 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: before I even knew you existed. So it's it just 763 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: worked out. There was never any but I've known situations 764 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: where people battle on it, and you know it's it 765 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: can create major, major problems that you've got major problems 766 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 1: at homes, you got major problems in your life, So 767 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 1: good luck. I don't have a great advice there of 768 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: just like I maybe try to bring her out for 769 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 1: vacation in the winter, just stay somewhere cool, Just see 770 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: if she enjoys it for like a week three days. 771 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,240 Speaker 1: I don't know, what do you think of my beloved 772 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown's need to do to get back to the playoffs. 773 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: Trade back the number two pick, trade Miles Garrett for 774 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: a haul. Where does Thefanski rank in your opinion of 775 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:48,959 Speaker 1: young offensive coaches. He refuses to give up play calling, 776 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: but I have yet to see the offensive wizard degree. 777 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on the hard fall off for 778 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. Well, I think Deshaun Watson was a fantastic 779 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: play I don't think he was a great quarterback. Like 780 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 1: when you watched him in Texans. A lot of his 781 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: awesome plays were like outside the pocket. He was like 782 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: the poor man's Russell Wilson. But like his best season, statistically, 783 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 1: the team was not good. I mean, I didn't they 784 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: go four to twelve. I mean they were horrendous. So 785 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 1: I think he was. And then obviously everything that came 786 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:23,879 Speaker 1: off the field, he's one of the greatest walking red 787 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: flags in the history of the quarterback position. So it's 788 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: like he's got a lot of issues. His skills diminished. 789 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: He did not work in the Stefanski under center. He 790 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: wants to play in the shotgun, and then they put 791 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 1: him in the shotgun and it looked like he lost 792 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: his fastball. And I don't know if physically he's not 793 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 1: the same. I mean now it will never be the same. 794 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 1: Multiple Achilles. I mean he's he's just he's awful player. 795 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: I mean, if they cut him tomorrow, he would no 796 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: one will ever sign him again. Like I feel that confident, 797 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 1: and I don't ever say that about anybody. I think 798 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: the best course of action would be, I mean, are 799 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 1: you gonna draft one of these quarterbacks? Because I want 800 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 1: I listen, this is no Shadey you guys, but I 801 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: don't think Dion would let shad Or go there. Now 802 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 1: we'll see if cam Ward goes one, maybe he doesn't. 803 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: Maybe just take cam Ward and see if Stefanski can 804 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: work with him. I think Stefanski's solid coach, but I 805 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,720 Speaker 1: do think he needs his type quarterback. Like Stefanski runs 806 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 1: his scheme. You know, Stefanski is actually much closer like 807 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, likes being an understander, likes running the ball, 808 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,760 Speaker 1: like the play action. So if you do that, great, 809 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 1: but he doesn't. He's not as comfortable doing all the 810 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: other stuff. Uh. I would think about trading Miles Garrett, 811 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: and it's tough, but I think in the situation you 812 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 1: guys are in because of DeShawn, he's twenty nine years old. 813 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: I mean, if I could trade him, right, now for 814 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,919 Speaker 1: three not you're not getting three ones, but two ones. 815 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 1: I think that's probably the move. I think there's a 816 00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 1: decent chance he's traded my iPhone. I think is going 817 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: I haven't got a new iPhone in years, but I 818 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 1: think we're almost there. I've often heard that when a 819 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback has success that during the offseason DC's will 820 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,439 Speaker 1: pound the tape and find ways to slow them down. 821 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 1: I'm curious why these adjustments can't be made during the season. 822 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,879 Speaker 1: Is there not enough time during the week, or are 823 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: there adjustice more scheme oriented that teams can make on 824 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: the fly. Uh, well, I think during the week. To 825 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: really really hone in on a place, you have to 826 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 1: have the game plan ready by Wednesday, right, it's when 827 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,360 Speaker 1: the players come in. Obviously you can tweak it Wednesday, 828 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 1: Thursday and Friday, but like you got to have a 829 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: pretty good idea in forty eight hours. So whenever I 830 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 1: see like why do coaches work so long, Well, they 831 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 1: don't have They have two days to get a game 832 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: plan ready for the players. So you basically get you 833 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: work late because you're at a game, especially if you're traveling, 834 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 1: you get to the office really really early. You maybe 835 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,839 Speaker 1: try to get a workout, bang some breakfast, bang out 836 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 1: the tape, grade the tape. Now if you won, you 837 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,879 Speaker 1: put the tape to bed. You know, most coaches give 838 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,759 Speaker 1: players Monday and Tuesday off, Like a forty nine er 839 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: is Kyle Shanaanleck's going over the tape at noon on 840 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,439 Speaker 1: Monday because he thinks you forget it within a couple 841 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: of days. So like, players come in no matter what, 842 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,359 Speaker 1: so it depends on the coach. But then you have 843 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: the rest of that day and then Tuesday to really 844 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: develop a game plan. So when I have OTAs and 845 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:42,440 Speaker 1: I am Vic Fangio right or whoever the Cowboys defensive 846 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: coordinator is, I can spend a week. Let's go over 847 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: every first down, second down, third down, red zone, two minute. 848 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 1: We can do a legit week long breakdown of Jayden 849 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 1: Daniels of bo Knicks where during the season it's like 850 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 1: we kind of have a plan of like we attack 851 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 1: first down, then we attack second down, then we attack 852 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:10,800 Speaker 1: third down, then we attack red zone, then we attack 853 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 1: the run game like everyone kind of has and you're 854 00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 1: just in the rhythm now obviously you're also most coaches 855 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: playoffs is different, but on like a week seven game. 856 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,760 Speaker 1: You're not breaking down all seven games. You're probably really 857 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:31,479 Speaker 1: focused on the last four maybe a game or two more. 858 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:35,440 Speaker 1: But you don't have unlimited time. We're in the offseason. 859 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 1: You have in training camp, you have unlimited time. That's 860 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 1: why the first game of the season Week one, it's 861 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: like they've had all off season. So they probably did 862 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,840 Speaker 1: some shit for you during OTAs. They probably did some 863 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 1: stuff for you in the summer, and then they spent 864 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,440 Speaker 1: a chunk of training camp. When I was with the Eagles, 865 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,760 Speaker 1: we used to have, like during OTA's, a giant period 866 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: of Washington period in a Dallas period. So like during OTA's, 867 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 1: I'm sure Andy does certain stuff like this now with 868 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: the Chiefs that OTAs that you give looks just about 869 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,799 Speaker 1: your divisional opponents. You're just kind of, hey, this is 870 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 1: what this is what Benito likes to do. You know. 871 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 1: This is some uh some tells from Patrick certain this 872 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 1: is what vance Joseph some of his go to's. It's 873 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 1: just extra, extra extra, this is extra reps. I just 874 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: think you're limited on in season ability time wise. For 875 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 1: the mail bag. This is this is about Mahomes. So 876 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 1: this is before the conference games, but doesn't matter the 877 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: whole Mahomes is the go to argue makes zero sense 878 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,720 Speaker 1: and it is ridiculous. It seems the media is whipped 879 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,080 Speaker 1: to put Pat on a pedestal. Tom beat Pat twice 880 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:08,879 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, So until Pat has six or seven 881 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 1: Super Bowls, he's not even sniffing Brady. Brady was also 882 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: able to win another team when he left the Hall 883 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: of Fame coach, and I don't think Pack could do 884 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 1: that with no red. Pat is amazing. I believe he 885 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 1: will be the second or first best quarterback ever when 886 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 1: it's all said and done. But you say it will 887 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: be the goat if he wins this Year's ridiculous. Who's 888 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:29,280 Speaker 1: really saying that? You know? I mean, Brady's got seven championships, 889 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 1: seven and he played Dell he's forty five, So for 890 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 1: any human to match that it feels borderline impossible. I 891 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 1: think Pat just has the best chance, right. It's like 892 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,480 Speaker 1: the whole Lebron argument, Well, he's had a better career. 893 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:49,479 Speaker 1: It's like Jordan's won six, Lebron's never winning another one, 894 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: so it's like, yeah, he's gonna be But the career, 895 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 1: he got six championships and none of them and none 896 00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 1: of them were in a bubble. So like people can 897 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:01,760 Speaker 1: argue all the they want, no one worth their salt 898 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 1: is ever picking Lebron over Michael Jordan. I think the 899 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:10,719 Speaker 1: same thing with Tom Brady, Like the dude seven championships, hell, 900 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: just six with the Patriots, and he got to nine 901 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: nine super Bowls, right because he lost the Eagles. He lost, Like, 902 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 1: losing the super Bowls not terrible for your resume, Like 903 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 1: Joe Montana's resume would look better if it's like, he 904 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,720 Speaker 1: won four, but he went to three others and lost. 905 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: Elway's resume looks better because he's like, well, he won two, 906 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: but he also went to three others and lost. That's good. 907 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,839 Speaker 1: He went to five super Bowls like Peyton's got too, 908 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 1: but he also went to a couple other ones. Like 909 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: that's that's a positive thing. Uh. I had this radical 910 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 1: idea that the NFL should cut the season by a game. Guys, 911 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: that's that's a that's a radical idea because it's never happening. 912 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: Remove remove a few preseason games, and put it in 913 00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 1: a double elimination tournament for the postseason. This would allow 914 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,879 Speaker 1: teams like the Lions, who are in the number one seed, 915 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,240 Speaker 1: a chance at redemption and allowed games that are flukes 916 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,439 Speaker 1: to not change the narrative on a team. It would 917 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 1: also double the amount of playoff games and extend the postseason. 918 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,399 Speaker 1: It just feels like sixteen weeks of football are great, 919 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: then the sports ends abruptly your thoughts, that's football, man, 920 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why this game is so much different 921 00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 1: than everyone else. It's why the NCAA tournament works. You 922 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,840 Speaker 1: get sixty minutes, man, you screw up and again, you 923 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:26,720 Speaker 1: screw up in a half. It could be your season. 924 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,359 Speaker 1: You have a major injury the week before, you're in 925 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: major trouble. You don't get a seven games series. You 926 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,839 Speaker 1: don't get a five game series. There are no repriefs. 927 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 1: It's the most powerful part about the games is that 928 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 1: every game means so much, right, Why that game for 929 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 1: the Lions is the biggest kick in the nuts of 930 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: all time. It's like, we could go ten more years 931 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,160 Speaker 1: of being a good team and never be the one 932 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:55,319 Speaker 1: seed again. Obviously they're probably never winning who It's gonna 933 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 1: be very rare that you have fifteen game winners. So 934 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: it's like it's just it's rare to accomplish what they 935 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 1: accomplished in the regular season, but then in the postseason 936 00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 1: none of it, Like your seating matters because you get 937 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:11,520 Speaker 1: a home game, but ultimately, like it's just it's what 938 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 1: makes the product so powerful to us the consumer, because 939 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,800 Speaker 1: we know it matters. Like I don't have to watch 940 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 1: a game one of an NBA playoff series. I don't 941 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,800 Speaker 1: have to watch game two of an NBA playoff series. 942 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 1: You could argue until an elimination game, It's like, yeah, 943 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 1: that's the NFL. Every single game is a Game seven 944 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. That's why college football was raging. Uh, 945 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 1: listen to you every single day. Agree with ninety eight 946 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 1: percent of the things you say. But you said Jaden 947 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: would start for the Eagles. Would you really take aj 948 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:51,600 Speaker 1: Brown reading books or DeVante Smith over Scary Terry. My 949 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 1: point was that if you just say, like, would Patrick 950 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 1: Mahomes start for the Cowboys like no one even hesitates, right, 951 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 1: or would Micah Parsons start for the Commanders. I mean, 952 00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 1: there are certain things that you don't even Scary Terry 953 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:12,239 Speaker 1: is an excellent player. I would take a j B 954 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 1: if I had to rank the three who I'd want 955 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: on my team. Aj Brown, even though he's a little 956 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 1: bit of a headache, he would be the first guy 957 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: of the three I would want. Could you make the 958 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 1: argument Scary Terry over Davante Smith? Fine, I'm not like, 959 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna argue all day with you, But in fairness, 960 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: Terry is the best quarterback he's ever played with, and 961 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:34,560 Speaker 1: he had eighty two catches for thirteen touchdowns, so obviously 962 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 1: DeVante's had a better situation for catching balls ninety five 963 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 1: catches eighty one catches. Yeah, if you want to take 964 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,840 Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin over DeVante Smith, I'm not gonna argue with you. Okay, 965 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 1: we'll get some more questions probably tomorrow, So fire in 966 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 1: those mailbacks at John Middlecoff at John Middlecoff is the 967 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: Instagram fire in those dms, scary question answered here on 968 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:57,959 Speaker 1: the show.
