Who we keep an 36 00:01:36,268 --> 00:01:36,548 Speaker 4: eye on? 37 00:01:37,828 --> 00:01:40,348 Speaker 8: Well, first of all, we got a franchise tag yesterday, 38 00:01:40,388 --> 00:01:41,588 Speaker 8: the second in this period. 39 00:01:41,588 --> 00:01:43,428 Speaker 2: First was t Higgins a couple of weeks ago. 40 00:01:43,868 --> 00:01:47,548 Speaker 8: Yesterday was Lugerious Sneid, the star corner for the Kansas 41 00:01:47,548 --> 00:01:48,108 Speaker 8: City Chiefs. 42 00:01:48,108 --> 00:01:49,348 Speaker 2: He is now locked in on a. 43 00:01:49,228 --> 00:01:53,468 Speaker 8: One year, fully guaranteed deal with nineteen twenty million dollars. 44 00:01:53,468 --> 00:01:55,068 Speaker 8: But for seeing that really might not be the end 45 00:01:55,108 --> 00:01:57,788 Speaker 8: of the story. The Chiefs have had trade talks over 46 00:01:57,828 --> 00:02:00,828 Speaker 8: the course of the last week or so. Snead does 47 00:02:00,908 --> 00:02:04,028 Speaker 8: have permission to seek his trade, seeking trade through his agent. 48 00:02:04,068 --> 00:02:06,908 Speaker 2: There are some interested teams. Nothing yet, but certainly this. 49 00:02:06,988 --> 00:02:10,228 Speaker 8: Is a possibility. Their priority to get sneed done, keeping 50 00:02:10,268 --> 00:02:12,228 Speaker 8: there in the franchise tag, which they have now done, 51 00:02:12,468 --> 00:02:15,708 Speaker 8: and to lock up Chris Jones long term. Meanwhile, for 52 00:02:15,788 --> 00:02:18,868 Speaker 8: the Miami Dolphins, they are not going to franchise tag 53 00:02:19,228 --> 00:02:22,668 Speaker 8: Christian Wilkins, their star defensive tackle. Really one of the 54 00:02:22,668 --> 00:02:26,308 Speaker 8: better players, regardless the position in free agency. Balled out 55 00:02:26,388 --> 00:02:28,548 Speaker 8: last year, played on the final year of his deal. 56 00:02:28,588 --> 00:02:31,308 Speaker 8: They actually had extension talks before last season, did not 57 00:02:31,468 --> 00:02:35,388 Speaker 8: come to fruition, played it out, went nuts, played extremely well. 58 00:02:35,588 --> 00:02:38,148 Speaker 8: Now is a free agent going to be extremely coveted 59 00:02:38,428 --> 00:02:40,748 Speaker 8: over the course of the next week. And then someone 60 00:02:40,748 --> 00:02:43,068 Speaker 8: who is going to be a free agent at the 61 00:02:43,148 --> 00:02:46,988 Speaker 8: start of the league year. That is Russell Wilson, the 62 00:02:47,028 --> 00:02:52,548 Speaker 8: Broncos starting quarterback. Former Broncos starting quarterback formally informed yesterday 63 00:02:52,708 --> 00:02:55,748 Speaker 8: of his release. Not a surprise, something we felt was coming, 64 00:02:55,788 --> 00:02:58,228 Speaker 8: but still significant with someone who was thought to be 65 00:02:58,308 --> 00:03:01,868 Speaker 8: a franchise quarterback was traded for for all of those picks, 66 00:03:01,868 --> 00:03:04,948 Speaker 8: given a huge salary. Now is real leaves the start 67 00:03:04,948 --> 00:03:06,748 Speaker 8: of the league year because they're going to split up 68 00:03:06,748 --> 00:03:09,748 Speaker 8: his salary cap dead money hit over the next couple 69 00:03:09,788 --> 00:03:12,348 Speaker 8: of years. It is eighty five million dollars. It is 70 00:03:12,388 --> 00:03:14,468 Speaker 8: a lot, the largest dead cap in the world up 71 00:03:14,508 --> 00:03:16,708 Speaker 8: on history. Split that up over the course of the 72 00:03:16,708 --> 00:03:20,068 Speaker 8: next two years. He also makes thirty nine million dollars 73 00:03:20,068 --> 00:03:24,068 Speaker 8: in cash this coming year. There are offsets, so anyone 74 00:03:24,108 --> 00:03:26,268 Speaker 8: who signs Russell Wilson unless they sign up for more 75 00:03:26,268 --> 00:03:28,468 Speaker 8: than thirty nine million dollars, are going to just pay 76 00:03:28,548 --> 00:03:32,228 Speaker 8: him the veteran minimum salary, making him very affordable. 77 00:03:32,428 --> 00:03:35,508 Speaker 4: First starter, Ian, thank you. 78 00:03:35,628 --> 00:03:37,708 Speaker 3: It was March is such a busy month for this 79 00:03:37,788 --> 00:03:39,948 Speaker 3: kind of stuff. It was two years ago, March sixteen, 80 00:03:40,068 --> 00:03:43,788 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, when Russell Wilson was sent from Seattle 81 00:03:43,828 --> 00:03:46,588 Speaker 3: to Denver for a handful of picks, a handful of guys. 82 00:03:46,868 --> 00:03:48,748 Speaker 3: What do we make now of the fact that, nearly 83 00:03:48,788 --> 00:03:51,908 Speaker 3: two years later this relationship is done. The cash in 84 00:03:51,948 --> 00:03:53,588 Speaker 3: his pocket now is a plenty. 85 00:03:53,828 --> 00:03:56,228 Speaker 5: I hear some of the numbers that rap, she says. 86 00:03:56,268 --> 00:03:58,588 Speaker 5: He says eighty five million in dead cap. He says, 87 00:03:58,588 --> 00:04:00,108 Speaker 5: thirty nine million in salary. 88 00:04:00,308 --> 00:04:01,588 Speaker 6: And it's like, I'm still in shock. 89 00:04:02,108 --> 00:04:04,668 Speaker 5: You know, when you know something's coming, you're expected to happen, 90 00:04:04,908 --> 00:04:07,268 Speaker 5: but still when it hits, it just hits a little 91 00:04:07,268 --> 00:04:07,908 Speaker 5: bit different. 92 00:04:07,948 --> 00:04:11,188 Speaker 6: Shot. There you go. Numbers are big, big, and I. 93 00:04:11,148 --> 00:04:13,308 Speaker 5: Look at this Russell Wilson and he joins the Denver 94 00:04:13,388 --> 00:04:15,148 Speaker 5: Broncos and it obviously didn't go well. 95 00:04:15,148 --> 00:04:15,668 Speaker 6: In year one. 96 00:04:15,708 --> 00:04:16,708 Speaker 2: They bring in Sean Payton. 97 00:04:16,708 --> 00:04:18,748 Speaker 5: A year tunes all right, he has an opportunity to 98 00:04:18,788 --> 00:04:20,748 Speaker 5: fix him, Well, if it doesn't work out, they're most 99 00:04:20,788 --> 00:04:22,948 Speaker 5: likely going to move on from Russell Wilson. But now 100 00:04:22,988 --> 00:04:25,148 Speaker 5: that it's here, when you sign a contract like that, 101 00:04:25,228 --> 00:04:27,188 Speaker 5: the thought within the locker room is that, all right, 102 00:04:27,268 --> 00:04:29,148 Speaker 5: if you look at your deal, you see exactly where 103 00:04:29,188 --> 00:04:32,148 Speaker 5: the guaranteed money is. When as soon as that guaranteed 104 00:04:32,188 --> 00:04:34,588 Speaker 5: money runs out, you're like, all right, at that point, 105 00:04:34,628 --> 00:04:36,428 Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to play well, I'm gonna have to 106 00:04:36,468 --> 00:04:36,988 Speaker 5: either take. 107 00:04:36,828 --> 00:04:38,588 Speaker 2: A pay cup or I'll be released. 108 00:04:38,668 --> 00:04:40,908 Speaker 5: But you know for sure, whether it's those first two years, 109 00:04:40,908 --> 00:04:43,708 Speaker 5: those first three years, when that money's fully guaranteed, when 110 00:04:43,748 --> 00:04:45,988 Speaker 5: you know you're making thirty nine million in that year, 111 00:04:46,148 --> 00:04:48,308 Speaker 5: all right, I'm safe. I'm going to be on the 112 00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:50,628 Speaker 5: roster and we're going to be able to figure it out. 113 00:04:50,908 --> 00:04:52,668 Speaker 2: That was not the case for the Broncos. 114 00:04:52,948 --> 00:04:55,148 Speaker 5: They were done with Russ so much that they're willing 115 00:04:55,188 --> 00:04:57,868 Speaker 5: to eat all of this deadcap and the salary just 116 00:04:57,908 --> 00:04:58,388 Speaker 5: to get. 117 00:04:58,308 --> 00:04:59,908 Speaker 2: Him out of the building. 118 00:05:00,268 --> 00:05:02,548 Speaker 5: And I look back at the tenure here, especially this 119 00:05:02,588 --> 00:05:05,268 Speaker 5: past year where Sean Payton joins on, and you have 120 00:05:05,308 --> 00:05:07,628 Speaker 5: all the different perspectives. You have different people saying all right, 121 00:05:07,668 --> 00:05:09,268 Speaker 5: Sean Payton sabotage Russ. 122 00:05:09,308 --> 00:05:10,428 Speaker 2: He never wanted them there. 123 00:05:10,508 --> 00:05:12,028 Speaker 5: But then you have other people on the other hands, 124 00:05:12,028 --> 00:05:13,388 Speaker 5: just like well, no, look at the moves that were made. 125 00:05:13,428 --> 00:05:15,948 Speaker 5: They brought in Lineman, they signed to j p Ronrot, 126 00:05:16,268 --> 00:05:19,028 Speaker 5: they brought in different people to help Russ on that offense. 127 00:05:19,508 --> 00:05:21,268 Speaker 2: Blame whoever you want to blame. At the end of 128 00:05:21,308 --> 00:05:22,828 Speaker 2: the day, it did not work out. 129 00:05:23,068 --> 00:05:25,548 Speaker 5: And thirty nine million dollars in eighty five in deaycap 130 00:05:25,668 --> 00:05:28,348 Speaker 5: all of those different things transpiring, they're still willing to 131 00:05:28,428 --> 00:05:30,828 Speaker 5: let Russ and invite them out the door and move 132 00:05:30,868 --> 00:05:31,628 Speaker 5: on to the next. 133 00:05:31,428 --> 00:05:32,348 Speaker 2: Era of quarterbacks. 134 00:05:32,388 --> 00:05:35,268 Speaker 7: Interesting that Ian mentions offsets, So we see this with coaches. 135 00:05:35,308 --> 00:05:37,108 Speaker 2: A lot coach gets like a five. 136 00:05:36,948 --> 00:05:40,908 Speaker 7: Year guaranteed deal and is making five million dollars a year. 137 00:05:40,988 --> 00:05:43,148 Speaker 7: The next team that hires him, they don't have to 138 00:05:43,188 --> 00:05:45,668 Speaker 7: pay him much because the other team already. 139 00:05:45,348 --> 00:05:45,988 Speaker 2: Has to pay him. 140 00:05:46,028 --> 00:05:48,708 Speaker 7: That's what Russ's situation is now, So he's getting that money. 141 00:05:49,028 --> 00:05:50,988 Speaker 7: Every dollar he makes from a new team is a 142 00:05:51,028 --> 00:05:54,028 Speaker 7: dollar that's less paid from the Broncos. So the new 143 00:05:54,068 --> 00:05:57,668 Speaker 7: team has no incentive to pay him anything more than 144 00:05:57,668 --> 00:05:58,428 Speaker 7: the veteran minimum. 145 00:05:58,468 --> 00:05:59,548 Speaker 2: And for us, he's getting it. 146 00:05:59,508 --> 00:06:01,668 Speaker 7: Anyway, So this is one of those rare deals where 147 00:06:01,668 --> 00:06:04,388 Speaker 7: we've got now a veteran quarterback who has a suit 148 00:06:04,388 --> 00:06:06,788 Speaker 7: super Bowl victory, who's got all the skins on the wall, 149 00:06:07,308 --> 00:06:09,468 Speaker 7: who might still have good football left in him. Like, 150 00:06:09,508 --> 00:06:12,388 Speaker 7: I don't I don't have a vision that the tank 151 00:06:12,468 --> 00:06:13,388 Speaker 7: is completely empty. 152 00:06:13,428 --> 00:06:16,108 Speaker 2: On Russ. I thought he looked really good against. 153 00:06:15,748 --> 00:06:17,748 Speaker 7: Buffalo last year on a Monday night game. I thought 154 00:06:17,748 --> 00:06:19,828 Speaker 7: he led his team in a cup they beat the chief. 155 00:06:19,868 --> 00:06:22,148 Speaker 7: I mean, this is a guy that still had moments 156 00:06:22,228 --> 00:06:22,708 Speaker 7: last year. 157 00:06:22,748 --> 00:06:24,508 Speaker 1: Here I was thinking about these guys who had the 158 00:06:24,548 --> 00:06:27,028 Speaker 1: weird middle stop. Yeah, like Kurt Warner on the Giants, 159 00:06:27,068 --> 00:06:29,948 Speaker 1: ye yeah, Carson Palmer on the Raiders, totally yeah. I 160 00:06:29,948 --> 00:06:31,388 Speaker 1: mean like and then they go to that third spot 161 00:06:31,388 --> 00:06:33,028 Speaker 1: and like, hey, look I'm still me. I'm awesome, even 162 00:06:33,068 --> 00:06:34,148 Speaker 1: far of the weird year of the Jets. 163 00:06:34,148 --> 00:06:36,068 Speaker 6: And then motally like that's what he needs. 164 00:06:36,308 --> 00:06:40,708 Speaker 7: I think he's actually an attractive free agent quarterback because 165 00:06:41,228 --> 00:06:45,188 Speaker 7: you're talking about Baker Mayfield might want forty million dollars. 166 00:06:45,668 --> 00:06:49,188 Speaker 7: Talking Daniel Jones last year made forty million dollars from 167 00:06:49,188 --> 00:06:52,988 Speaker 7: the Giant. Russell Wilson could play for four million dollars 168 00:06:53,268 --> 00:06:55,948 Speaker 7: and I don't know if the production from Baker Mayfield 169 00:06:55,988 --> 00:06:59,228 Speaker 7: is tenfold over what Russell is. So you're getting a 170 00:06:59,388 --> 00:07:01,588 Speaker 7: thirty something year old Russell Wilson who's got a chip 171 00:07:01,628 --> 00:07:04,668 Speaker 7: on his shoulder, who is already paid by somebody else else. 172 00:07:04,828 --> 00:07:07,348 Speaker 7: It could be an attractive piece to a team because 173 00:07:07,428 --> 00:07:09,628 Speaker 7: what he brings when he's playing the best. Of course, 174 00:07:09,788 --> 00:07:13,228 Speaker 7: you say the personality and all that. I don't think 175 00:07:13,268 --> 00:07:15,908 Speaker 7: anyone at the Broncos, including Russell Sean. 176 00:07:15,628 --> 00:07:16,748 Speaker 2: Payton, would say he's a back guy. 177 00:07:16,868 --> 00:07:18,908 Speaker 7: It was just didn't fit the offense, didn't fit what 178 00:07:18,948 --> 00:07:21,348 Speaker 7: they were doing, and Peyton inherited him. So I think 179 00:07:21,388 --> 00:07:23,948 Speaker 7: it's a tremendous contract that he took on from Denver. 180 00:07:24,108 --> 00:07:25,908 Speaker 7: It's one of the worst trades of all time when 181 00:07:25,948 --> 00:07:27,708 Speaker 7: you look back on it. It is one of the 182 00:07:27,748 --> 00:07:31,508 Speaker 7: most hazardous contract liabilities that an old team has on 183 00:07:31,588 --> 00:07:34,148 Speaker 7: a player that's not playing for him, but for Russell Wilson, 184 00:07:34,228 --> 00:07:37,108 Speaker 7: like now, he becomes kind of an attractive piece for 185 00:07:37,148 --> 00:07:38,628 Speaker 7: a team that's looking for veteran quarterback. 186 00:07:38,668 --> 00:07:39,708 Speaker 6: That's a very positive spoon. 187 00:07:39,868 --> 00:07:40,188 Speaker 2: Respect. 188 00:07:40,308 --> 00:07:43,508 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm just relieve this is over. It's hard to watch. 189 00:07:43,548 --> 00:07:44,388 Speaker 6: It was hard to watch. 190 00:07:44,788 --> 00:07:47,668 Speaker 1: It was like a bad celebrity marriage, and honestly, like 191 00:07:47,788 --> 00:07:49,908 Speaker 1: Bronco was great franchise, Russell was a great player. 192 00:07:50,028 --> 00:07:54,908 Speaker 6: Just no, it was like Kim Kay and Chris Humphries. 193 00:07:54,428 --> 00:07:58,148 Speaker 4: Like that exactly seventy two days. Seventy two days. 194 00:07:58,148 --> 00:07:59,148 Speaker 6: That was It's what it felt like. 195 00:07:59,148 --> 00:08:03,548 Speaker 1: And also like you know, most expensive divorce, Like, my god, 196 00:08:04,148 --> 00:08:06,388 Speaker 1: what Melinda Gates get? I mean it was in the 197 00:08:06,428 --> 00:08:08,148 Speaker 1: football terms, I think it was pretty close. It was 198 00:08:08,188 --> 00:08:12,068 Speaker 1: a lot. And listen, I respect what the Broncos did. 199 00:08:12,108 --> 00:08:14,748 Speaker 1: I respect their intentions, but they're like, we're the Broncos. 200 00:08:14,788 --> 00:08:16,868 Speaker 1: We matter one of the most important franchises. We win 201 00:08:16,868 --> 00:08:19,468 Speaker 1: super Bowls here, we've got them. Let's go out and 202 00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:22,668 Speaker 1: give our fans a really big superstar quarterback. 203 00:08:22,788 --> 00:08:24,348 Speaker 6: Let's pay top dollar. It's what a lot of fan 204 00:08:24,348 --> 00:08:25,308 Speaker 6: bases want their teams do. 205 00:08:25,348 --> 00:08:27,508 Speaker 1: They never will They took it just didn't work, which 206 00:08:27,588 --> 00:08:30,708 Speaker 1: is terrible, and Peter like, it's the worst trade in 207 00:08:30,828 --> 00:08:31,588 Speaker 1: NFL history. 208 00:08:31,708 --> 00:08:34,068 Speaker 6: It is the number one, and so like take your 209 00:08:34,108 --> 00:08:35,188 Speaker 6: medicine and then we'll move on. 210 00:08:35,268 --> 00:08:38,068 Speaker 1: But like, let's just recap, Okay, to get Russell Wilson, 211 00:08:38,188 --> 00:08:42,828 Speaker 1: the Broncos sent two to ones, two two's of five 212 00:08:43,388 --> 00:08:46,548 Speaker 1: and young promising players. They paid him one hundred and 213 00:08:46,588 --> 00:08:49,468 Speaker 1: twenty plus million dollars. And then it's also there's this 214 00:08:49,628 --> 00:08:51,988 Speaker 1: next year where they also traded for Peyton, and they 215 00:08:52,028 --> 00:08:54,588 Speaker 1: traded A one and A two for Peyton and they 216 00:08:54,588 --> 00:08:56,828 Speaker 1: were rewarded in year one with Russell Wilson's worst year 217 00:08:56,868 --> 00:09:00,308 Speaker 1: of his career. Not only that derision, mockery, like, it 218 00:09:00,348 --> 00:09:01,188 Speaker 1: was just really bad. 219 00:09:01,468 --> 00:09:05,308 Speaker 6: I respect their intentions. It's terrible. It's over. I'm glad 220 00:09:05,308 --> 00:09:06,708 Speaker 6: it's over. I don't know where they go next. I 221 00:09:06,708 --> 00:09:09,748 Speaker 6: don't care. It's the worst trade in NFL history. 222 00:09:09,748 --> 00:09:11,668 Speaker 1: When you start saying, I don't know herschel Walker might 223 00:09:11,668 --> 00:09:13,068 Speaker 1: have been like, we're already into. 224 00:09:12,828 --> 00:09:15,348 Speaker 2: The unknowns a fire to coach fourteen weeks into the season. 225 00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:18,028 Speaker 6: True, right, So listen first, all very bad. Yeah, so 226 00:09:18,148 --> 00:09:20,868 Speaker 6: we're gonna move on. They're gonna move on. I'm glad 227 00:09:20,908 --> 00:09:23,108 Speaker 6: it's over. I'm relieved it's over. It it was really bad, 228 00:09:23,148 --> 00:09:24,508 Speaker 6: and now we're going through a new day. 229 00:09:24,668 --> 00:09:26,908 Speaker 3: For for all parties involved. Like it's not just a 230 00:09:26,908 --> 00:09:28,988 Speaker 3: new day for the Broncos, like I think for Russ too. 231 00:09:29,268 --> 00:09:31,988 Speaker 3: I'm really curious because I think I don't want to 232 00:09:31,988 --> 00:09:33,828 Speaker 3: say his character took a hit in the two years, 233 00:09:33,868 --> 00:09:37,228 Speaker 3: but the way he was perceived by people who watch football, 234 00:09:37,308 --> 00:09:39,228 Speaker 3: what they thought they knew of him in Seattle, I 235 00:09:39,228 --> 00:09:40,948 Speaker 3: think that took a hit for him over the last 236 00:09:40,988 --> 00:09:44,108 Speaker 3: two years. The weird parking spot thing, the office in 237 00:09:44,148 --> 00:09:47,468 Speaker 3: the building, all those strange reports in his first year 238 00:09:47,508 --> 00:09:49,788 Speaker 3: that came out, I think was just people were very 239 00:09:49,868 --> 00:09:52,428 Speaker 3: judgmental of him, and now he's trying to put a 240 00:09:52,428 --> 00:09:55,508 Speaker 3: positive spin on it. Very thankful to Broncos Country and 241 00:09:55,548 --> 00:09:57,748 Speaker 3: his time there, how kind they were to his family, whatnot. 242 00:09:57,868 --> 00:09:59,828 Speaker 4: That's all all good. The football wasn't good. 243 00:09:59,868 --> 00:10:01,828 Speaker 3: And I oftentimes look at lists like this that we're 244 00:10:01,828 --> 00:10:04,308 Speaker 3: going to show and say, what's the anomaly here? What's 245 00:10:04,428 --> 00:10:06,628 Speaker 3: stands out when you look at over the last two 246 00:10:06,708 --> 00:10:08,428 Speaker 3: years and quarterbacks that haven't fared well. 247 00:10:08,508 --> 00:10:09,748 Speaker 4: This is not a shot on those. 248 00:10:09,588 --> 00:10:11,428 Speaker 3: Three names, but you look at the other three names, 249 00:10:11,548 --> 00:10:13,708 Speaker 3: justin fields, Mac Jones, deer Carr, they were all in 250 00:10:13,908 --> 00:10:17,028 Speaker 3: sub par systems. The way the teams that they were on, 251 00:10:17,148 --> 00:10:20,308 Speaker 3: Mac Jones struggled. Russell Wilson does not belong on that list. 252 00:10:20,308 --> 00:10:23,628 Speaker 3: When you consider a two year tenure wherever Russell Wilson 253 00:10:23,668 --> 00:10:26,868 Speaker 3: was playing He is the kind of quarterback that shouldn't 254 00:10:26,868 --> 00:10:28,628 Speaker 3: be on a list like this, yet here he is. 255 00:10:28,988 --> 00:10:31,148 Speaker 3: So we all know what we're watching unfolded with the 256 00:10:31,228 --> 00:10:33,868 Speaker 3: Chicago Bears and Justin Fields. The fact that he has 257 00:10:34,228 --> 00:10:37,908 Speaker 3: one less loss than that stretch for the Bears tays 258 00:10:37,948 --> 00:10:40,068 Speaker 3: a lot about how things fair for Russell Wilson. 259 00:10:40,268 --> 00:10:41,228 Speaker 4: This isn't great either. 260 00:10:41,388 --> 00:10:44,908 Speaker 3: It's the football is curious whatever he has left. 261 00:10:44,668 --> 00:10:45,268 Speaker 4: In the tank. 262 00:10:45,548 --> 00:10:48,308 Speaker 3: My next question is how does this fit in the 263 00:10:48,348 --> 00:10:50,948 Speaker 3: future system that you are going to apply him to? 264 00:10:50,988 --> 00:10:54,068 Speaker 7: See I look at that twenty six touchdowns, eight interceptions, 265 00:10:54,748 --> 00:10:55,628 Speaker 7: thought I thought he was. 266 00:10:55,628 --> 00:10:57,948 Speaker 3: All right last nights years, last year's fine, that's your 267 00:10:58,068 --> 00:11:00,748 Speaker 3: first Maybe that's a Sean Payne thing. 268 00:11:00,908 --> 00:11:03,348 Speaker 5: Wells And it seems like you look at it, and 269 00:11:03,348 --> 00:11:04,908 Speaker 5: then a lot of people are like, you look at 270 00:11:04,908 --> 00:11:06,588 Speaker 5: his numbers, and his numbers look fine. Now, a lot 271 00:11:06,628 --> 00:11:08,748 Speaker 5: of people look at and say, well, when you look 272 00:11:08,788 --> 00:11:11,428 Speaker 5: at them, offensively, they just weren't doing enough. They were 273 00:11:11,548 --> 00:11:13,428 Speaker 5: scoring a points to keep it close, but at the 274 00:11:13,428 --> 00:11:15,828 Speaker 5: same time, they weren't making any of those plays to 275 00:11:15,988 --> 00:11:18,668 Speaker 5: go out and win football games. To your point, though 276 00:11:18,828 --> 00:11:20,228 Speaker 5: there was a lot going on. Remember this is a 277 00:11:20,228 --> 00:11:22,108 Speaker 5: team that gave up seventy points in a game early 278 00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:24,628 Speaker 5: on when they were scoring enough points offensively to win 279 00:11:24,668 --> 00:11:27,028 Speaker 5: some games. So it just felt like it never meshed 280 00:11:27,068 --> 00:11:29,748 Speaker 5: at the right time. As in an organization its entirety. 281 00:11:30,508 --> 00:11:33,108 Speaker 1: It was more than stats, yes, Yton saying, Peyton's like, 282 00:11:33,148 --> 00:11:34,708 Speaker 1: this is not my guy. I don't want to go forward. 283 00:11:34,708 --> 00:11:36,828 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing. Of course, they lost to the Patriots, like 284 00:11:36,828 --> 00:11:38,348 Speaker 1: a really bad Patriots heat and that was the last 285 00:11:38,348 --> 00:11:40,788 Speaker 1: time he ever played. The stats look fine. It wasn't 286 00:11:40,788 --> 00:11:41,308 Speaker 1: about the status. 287 00:11:41,308 --> 00:11:45,468 Speaker 7: They mentioned bench Trussel Wilson and he was making that money. 288 00:11:45,988 --> 00:11:48,908 Speaker 7: I also like, I look back at that at that time, 289 00:11:49,508 --> 00:11:51,588 Speaker 7: you were coming off Tom Brady coming to Tampa and 290 00:11:51,628 --> 00:11:54,108 Speaker 7: get him them a Super Bowl. Matt Stafford going to 291 00:11:54,348 --> 00:11:56,228 Speaker 7: the Rams gave them a Super Bowl. I don't think 292 00:11:56,228 --> 00:11:58,508 Speaker 7: any of us at the table were knocking the trade 293 00:11:58,508 --> 00:12:00,148 Speaker 7: at the time, And even when the contract came and 294 00:12:00,148 --> 00:12:01,508 Speaker 7: you're like, well, it's a Hall of Fame quarterback. 295 00:12:01,548 --> 00:12:02,388 Speaker 2: That's just what it is. 296 00:12:02,868 --> 00:12:05,788 Speaker 7: And now you look at it and you know, erroneous 297 00:12:05,868 --> 00:12:07,988 Speaker 7: decision ever made. At the time, I don't think any 298 00:12:07,988 --> 00:12:10,468 Speaker 7: of us were knocking it. What's crazy is that in 299 00:12:10,508 --> 00:12:15,148 Speaker 7: that time New ownership, new head coach, everything around that 300 00:12:15,188 --> 00:12:17,228 Speaker 7: team has changed, and now Russell's gunn. 301 00:12:17,348 --> 00:12:19,108 Speaker 1: I think the only people who maybe didn't like the trade, 302 00:12:19,148 --> 00:12:20,748 Speaker 1: there were some former Seahawks in the media who didn't 303 00:12:20,788 --> 00:12:20,948 Speaker 1: like it. 304 00:12:21,028 --> 00:12:22,588 Speaker 6: They always have a lot of takes on Russ, A lot. 305 00:12:22,828 --> 00:12:25,468 Speaker 5: That's a long you know, Yeah, definitely they always said that. 306 00:12:25,468 --> 00:12:27,468 Speaker 5: And I look back too when Hackey first took the 307 00:12:27,468 --> 00:12:30,028 Speaker 5: Broncos job. Remember it was Aaron Rodgers was gonna leave 308 00:12:30,028 --> 00:12:32,108 Speaker 5: Green Bay and Gold to Denver. So it was almost like, 309 00:12:32,508 --> 00:12:34,588 Speaker 5: was Russ kind of the second option where we missed 310 00:12:34,588 --> 00:12:37,188 Speaker 5: on Rogers, we brought Hackey. We gotta go and shoot 311 00:12:37,188 --> 00:12:39,108 Speaker 5: for something. But it obviously did not okay. 312 00:12:39,108 --> 00:12:41,948 Speaker 3: So considering the numbers, even though there was some improvement 313 00:12:42,028 --> 00:12:44,348 Speaker 3: in terms of production in the second year, do you 314 00:12:44,428 --> 00:12:46,508 Speaker 3: deem this with the trade, the money, everything, Is this 315 00:12:46,548 --> 00:12:47,988 Speaker 3: an abject failure. 316 00:12:47,708 --> 00:12:49,508 Speaker 5: No doubt about it. I remember we did two point 317 00:12:49,548 --> 00:12:51,988 Speaker 5: conversing last summer, and this was after year one of 318 00:12:52,028 --> 00:12:54,708 Speaker 5: the experience, and we said, like, is this the worst trade? 319 00:12:54,748 --> 00:12:56,508 Speaker 2: And you just brought up to herschel Walker. 320 00:12:56,228 --> 00:12:58,028 Speaker 5: And you were kind of going through comp trying to 321 00:12:58,028 --> 00:13:00,308 Speaker 5: figure out to give it a chance and it was 322 00:13:00,388 --> 00:13:02,468 Speaker 5: just like, well, it's only year one, Like let's give 323 00:13:02,468 --> 00:13:04,068 Speaker 5: it to year two and let's see. 324 00:13:03,908 --> 00:13:05,148 Speaker 2: What happens without the money. 325 00:13:05,348 --> 00:13:08,668 Speaker 5: That's without the money, that's without the trade for Sean Payton, 326 00:13:08,708 --> 00:13:11,348 Speaker 5: that's without firing Nathaniel Hackett, a coach that you had 327 00:13:11,348 --> 00:13:13,708 Speaker 5: to pay as well. So without a shadow doubt, it's 328 00:13:13,748 --> 00:13:16,468 Speaker 5: an absolute failure as a team. I didn't make the playoffs. 329 00:13:16,508 --> 00:13:18,428 Speaker 5: It was the only thing that was talked about was 330 00:13:18,628 --> 00:13:21,268 Speaker 5: Russ saying Broncos country, let's ride. That was the most 331 00:13:21,268 --> 00:13:23,308 Speaker 5: thing that was talked about since he joined there. There 332 00:13:23,348 --> 00:13:24,588 Speaker 5: was nothing positivebout things. 333 00:13:24,508 --> 00:13:24,788 Speaker 2: That I came. 334 00:13:24,948 --> 00:13:27,788 Speaker 7: You were coming off a run and Peyton referenced it 335 00:13:27,828 --> 00:13:29,828 Speaker 7: at the combine. Sorry not the meme, but like you 336 00:13:29,868 --> 00:13:33,468 Speaker 7: had Brett Rippon, you had you know, obviously you go 337 00:13:33,548 --> 00:13:36,308 Speaker 7: back to Paxton Lynch and you had Joe Flacco starting 338 00:13:36,348 --> 00:13:38,228 Speaker 7: games and you try Teddy Bridge order like they were 339 00:13:38,228 --> 00:13:41,428 Speaker 7: so hungry for a start. To me, Trevor Simeon that 340 00:13:41,508 --> 00:13:43,708 Speaker 7: it just it was like it was like, Okay, finally 341 00:13:43,748 --> 00:13:44,388 Speaker 7: we got a guy. 342 00:13:44,588 --> 00:13:46,268 Speaker 2: I just didn't want to count. But yes, I mean 343 00:13:46,588 --> 00:13:47,468 Speaker 2: monster failure. 344 00:13:47,468 --> 00:13:49,028 Speaker 7: But it's just two years and now you're gonna see 345 00:13:49,068 --> 00:13:51,868 Speaker 7: to go win despite the salary cap, hazards, word. 346 00:13:51,708 --> 00:13:54,508 Speaker 1: Straight in NFL history unless been positive, there is there is, 347 00:13:54,548 --> 00:13:56,868 Speaker 1: There is one positive. If they were about to make 348 00:13:56,908 --> 00:13:59,988 Speaker 1: it like before they did the two years and someone 349 00:13:59,988 --> 00:14:01,788 Speaker 1: said to him, like game show style, I'm not going 350 00:14:01,828 --> 00:14:03,788 Speaker 1: to tell you how the rest of it goes, but 351 00:14:03,868 --> 00:14:07,148 Speaker 1: I will tell you that Russ is gonna beat the Chiefs. 352 00:14:07,508 --> 00:14:09,708 Speaker 1: He's gonna throw three touchdown passes against the Chiefs. He's 353 00:14:09,748 --> 00:14:12,148 Speaker 1: gonna hit Judy, he's gonna hit Courtland, and we're gonna 354 00:14:12,228 --> 00:14:13,468 Speaker 1: end this streak. 355 00:14:13,148 --> 00:14:14,748 Speaker 6: Of you guys listening to the Chiefs and it's not 356 00:14:14,788 --> 00:14:15,348 Speaker 6: some weird. 357 00:14:15,188 --> 00:14:17,668 Speaker 1: Thing where Mahomes is out. He beats Mahomes and read 358 00:14:17,908 --> 00:14:19,068 Speaker 1: do you want it? And I'm gonna be like, well, 359 00:14:19,108 --> 00:14:19,708 Speaker 1: how's the rest of them? 360 00:14:19,748 --> 00:14:21,988 Speaker 6: I'm not gonna tell you, but you did beat the Chiefs. 361 00:14:22,108 --> 00:14:24,148 Speaker 1: This was a great day for Russell Wilson and the Broncos. 362 00:14:24,188 --> 00:14:26,228 Speaker 1: It was a great day. There weren't a lot of them. 363 00:14:26,468 --> 00:14:28,628 Speaker 1: When we look back on this era, let's just remember 364 00:14:29,068 --> 00:14:30,108 Speaker 1: that the Chiefs owned them. 365 00:14:30,108 --> 00:14:32,588 Speaker 6: Mahomes had never lost to the Broncos. He went in, 366 00:14:32,668 --> 00:14:33,628 Speaker 6: he threw three touchdowns. 367 00:14:33,668 --> 00:14:34,988 Speaker 1: They beat him, They beat in front of their home 368 00:14:35,068 --> 00:14:36,868 Speaker 1: fans and then all went to hell in ahead basket 369 00:14:36,948 --> 00:14:37,228 Speaker 1: after that. 370 00:14:37,268 --> 00:14:39,468 Speaker 6: But it was not a total failure. 371 00:14:39,668 --> 00:14:41,708 Speaker 1: They brought him in, paying him a quarter billion dollars 372 00:14:41,788 --> 00:14:43,108 Speaker 1: or something, and he ended the streak. 373 00:14:43,108 --> 00:14:44,828 Speaker 6: And now he moves on. So he did do something, 374 00:14:44,868 --> 00:14:45,948 Speaker 6: and he beat Josh Allen. 375 00:14:45,948 --> 00:14:48,028 Speaker 7: He beat Mahomes and Allen last year, so he finally 376 00:14:48,108 --> 00:14:48,828 Speaker 7: starts the streak. 377 00:14:48,868 --> 00:14:49,588 Speaker 2: Like there were games. 378 00:14:49,628 --> 00:14:50,588 Speaker 6: There were games, There were a games. 379 00:14:50,668 --> 00:14:53,668 Speaker 1: I'm trying to spend positive ended the streak. Whoever takes 380 00:14:53,708 --> 00:14:56,028 Speaker 1: it over for Denver now doesn't have to be like, 381 00:14:56,148 --> 00:14:58,028 Speaker 1: you know, they haven't beaten the Chiefs Nerver because Rush 382 00:14:58,068 --> 00:14:58,508 Speaker 1: took care of that. 383 00:14:58,828 --> 00:14:59,988 Speaker 6: So give Russ' credit. 384 00:15:00,268 --> 00:15:02,348 Speaker 3: We're giving the Broncos a morale win for that week. 385 00:15:02,388 --> 00:15:03,788 Speaker 3: Do you think it's more meaningful the fact that the 386 00:15:03,868 --> 00:15:05,668 Speaker 3: Chiefs went on win a super Bowl that season. 387 00:15:05,988 --> 00:15:07,188 Speaker 4: What if it was a terrible season. 388 00:15:07,948 --> 00:15:10,628 Speaker 1: They don't have terrible seasons. So they beat Mahomes. This 389 00:15:10,748 --> 00:15:13,028 Speaker 1: was none of this Blaine Gabbert's and no, they beat Mahomes. 390 00:15:13,188 --> 00:15:14,628 Speaker 1: They can never take that away from them. They just 391 00:15:14,708 --> 00:15:15,988 Speaker 1: had to pay a lot of money to do. 392 00:15:16,188 --> 00:15:17,868 Speaker 3: We should put that as a part of the compensatory 393 00:15:17,948 --> 00:15:20,028 Speaker 3: that they like, and you got a chief to win 394 00:15:20,228 --> 00:15:27,548 Speaker 3: a sionde nice job. He was announced during our show 395 00:15:27,668 --> 00:15:30,428 Speaker 3: yesterday that the Philadelphia Eagles would be holding a press 396 00:15:30,428 --> 00:15:34,228 Speaker 3: conference yesterday afternoon as a pertain to Jason Kelce and 397 00:15:34,468 --> 00:15:35,508 Speaker 3: we were all a little sad. 398 00:15:35,388 --> 00:15:37,308 Speaker 4: Because we thought that this was the case. 399 00:15:37,428 --> 00:15:40,388 Speaker 3: But after thirteen seasons, the six time All Pro and 400 00:15:40,508 --> 00:15:43,508 Speaker 3: seven time Pro Bowler, Super Bowl champion, Jason Kelsey, he's 401 00:15:43,508 --> 00:15:45,868 Speaker 3: called it a career. Here's just a snippet of that 402 00:15:46,028 --> 00:15:50,268 Speaker 3: emotional retirement speech given yesterday in Philadelphia show. 403 00:15:50,308 --> 00:15:54,988 Speaker 9: This all brings us here to today, where I announced 404 00:15:55,108 --> 00:16:07,628 Speaker 9: that I am retiring. I'm retiring from the NFL after 405 00:16:07,708 --> 00:16:12,908 Speaker 9: thirteen seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles, and today. 406 00:16:14,308 --> 00:16:15,228 Speaker 6: I must admit. 407 00:16:16,908 --> 00:16:25,348 Speaker 9: I am officially overrated, vastly overrated, but it took a 408 00:16:25,388 --> 00:16:32,828 Speaker 9: lot of hard work and determination getting here. I have 409 00:16:32,948 --> 00:16:35,708 Speaker 9: been the underdog my entire career, and I mean this 410 00:16:35,868 --> 00:16:40,588 Speaker 9: when I say it. I wish I still was a 411 00:16:40,668 --> 00:16:43,668 Speaker 9: few things gave me more joy than proving someone wrong. 412 00:16:45,548 --> 00:16:47,828 Speaker 9: My mother used to tell people and still says to 413 00:16:47,948 --> 00:16:51,668 Speaker 9: this day, if you want Jason to do something, all 414 00:16:51,748 --> 00:16:55,148 Speaker 9: you have to do is telling me can't. And that 415 00:16:55,348 --> 00:16:57,348 Speaker 9: was true in more ways than I care to admit. 416 00:16:59,548 --> 00:17:05,148 Speaker 9: I relish doubters. They fueled a fire within I suspect 417 00:17:05,188 --> 00:17:08,468 Speaker 9: that comes from an upbringing where my parents would tell me, Jason, 418 00:17:09,548 --> 00:17:12,548 Speaker 9: you can do. You can be anything in this world 419 00:17:12,628 --> 00:17:15,268 Speaker 9: you want to, as long as you put your mind 420 00:17:15,348 --> 00:17:19,548 Speaker 9: to it and work hard to achieve it. So whenever 421 00:17:19,628 --> 00:17:21,828 Speaker 9: I was faced with doubt in my career, be it 422 00:17:21,908 --> 00:17:27,188 Speaker 9: from fans, from coaches, even from my own teammates, the 423 00:17:27,268 --> 00:17:33,828 Speaker 9: American dream would burn from deep inside my bones, which 424 00:17:33,948 --> 00:17:45,228 Speaker 9: leads to my last Jeff Stoutland quote, hungry dogs run fast. 425 00:17:53,868 --> 00:18:02,668 Speaker 9: Thank you Philadelphia, Oh my god, thank you Philadelphia. From 426 00:18:02,668 --> 00:18:05,188 Speaker 9: the bottom of my heart. Thank you for letting me 427 00:18:05,268 --> 00:18:09,148 Speaker 9: represent this city and allowing me into your homes every 428 00:18:09,188 --> 00:18:18,348 Speaker 9: Sunday growing up. It has truly been a privilege. You 429 00:18:18,508 --> 00:18:20,868 Speaker 9: have all been so good to me and my family. 430 00:18:22,828 --> 00:18:26,428 Speaker 9: Growing up in Cleveland. I watched all of my favorite 431 00:18:26,788 --> 00:18:31,268 Speaker 9: athletes leave the city. Hell, a whole team left the city. 432 00:18:35,068 --> 00:18:39,388 Speaker 9: It has always been a goal of mine to play 433 00:18:39,548 --> 00:18:46,108 Speaker 9: my whole career in one city, and I couldn't have 434 00:18:46,228 --> 00:18:50,148 Speaker 9: dreamt a better one and a better fit if I tried. 435 00:18:53,548 --> 00:18:56,268 Speaker 4: Oh Man, he loved that place. And that place loved him. 436 00:18:56,428 --> 00:19:00,188 Speaker 3: Jason Kelsey calls it a career all in Philadelphia, many 437 00:19:00,268 --> 00:19:01,948 Speaker 3: believed to be a shoe in to bring on my 438 00:19:02,028 --> 00:19:06,508 Speaker 3: Pro Football Hall of Famer over a dozen seasons. The 439 00:19:06,748 --> 00:19:10,268 Speaker 3: starts at the bottom of the screen. Wildly impressive. But 440 00:19:10,428 --> 00:19:13,668 Speaker 3: as he said later in his speech, his career grew 441 00:19:13,788 --> 00:19:16,548 Speaker 3: and his success grew, and his skill set grew within 442 00:19:16,628 --> 00:19:18,988 Speaker 3: that team as the team do better. Jason, I know 443 00:19:19,068 --> 00:19:22,228 Speaker 3: you tweeted yesterday like that speech made you reminded you like, Wow, 444 00:19:22,508 --> 00:19:24,148 Speaker 3: you love football so much? Would you make of the 445 00:19:24,228 --> 00:19:25,268 Speaker 3: speech in the career. 446 00:19:25,268 --> 00:19:27,668 Speaker 5: Yeah, it makes you miss the game because of the 447 00:19:27,748 --> 00:19:30,468 Speaker 5: emotion that was shared within that speech when he talked 448 00:19:30,468 --> 00:19:33,108 Speaker 5: about whether it was his brother, whether it was his wife, 449 00:19:33,148 --> 00:19:35,988 Speaker 5: but specifically teammates. And then as he talked about his 450 00:19:36,148 --> 00:19:38,988 Speaker 5: position coach Just Stoutland, And that was so impressive to 451 00:19:39,068 --> 00:19:41,708 Speaker 5: me because he talked about a human being being able 452 00:19:41,748 --> 00:19:44,468 Speaker 5: to give somebody belief, and he talked about in as 453 00:19:44,548 --> 00:19:47,708 Speaker 5: dark as hours as an egle, just Stoutland gave him belief. 454 00:19:47,988 --> 00:19:50,348 Speaker 5: And he said, in this world, self doubt is a 455 00:19:50,468 --> 00:19:53,068 Speaker 5: terrible and a dangerous thing to have. And as I 456 00:19:53,228 --> 00:19:55,228 Speaker 5: listened to him speak it brought me back to my 457 00:19:55,348 --> 00:19:57,308 Speaker 5: playing days and how meaningful those. 458 00:19:57,188 --> 00:19:58,108 Speaker 2: People are around you. 459 00:19:58,188 --> 00:20:00,348 Speaker 5: And I think the reason he's in tears is the 460 00:20:00,468 --> 00:20:03,068 Speaker 5: reality is when you walk away from the game, those 461 00:20:03,148 --> 00:20:06,588 Speaker 5: relationships that every walking into the building for him talking to, 462 00:20:06,628 --> 00:20:09,828 Speaker 5: whether it's Lane Johnson or Jordan Mylotto or somebody in 463 00:20:09,908 --> 00:20:13,308 Speaker 5: the cafeteria that makes his pancakes every single day, that 464 00:20:13,428 --> 00:20:16,588 Speaker 5: doesn't occur anymore. You don't just live in Philadelphia and 465 00:20:16,628 --> 00:20:19,388 Speaker 5: still continue to walk into the building whenever you want. 466 00:20:19,428 --> 00:20:21,628 Speaker 5: And as players, when you walk away from this thing, 467 00:20:21,708 --> 00:20:23,908 Speaker 5: still so young in life, but having done it for 468 00:20:24,028 --> 00:20:26,028 Speaker 5: thirteen years, as we look at a picture early on 469 00:20:26,188 --> 00:20:28,708 Speaker 5: in his career and he probably thinks back to those 470 00:20:28,788 --> 00:20:31,148 Speaker 5: moments and everything that transpired between them. 471 00:20:31,668 --> 00:20:32,308 Speaker 6: It was so cool. 472 00:20:32,468 --> 00:20:34,188 Speaker 5: My son came home from school in this week and 473 00:20:34,268 --> 00:20:36,428 Speaker 5: he had a basketball game and they got killed in 474 00:20:36,468 --> 00:20:38,468 Speaker 5: the first game and he was in tears after and 475 00:20:38,548 --> 00:20:40,348 Speaker 5: they had to get ready for the second game. And 476 00:20:40,468 --> 00:20:42,668 Speaker 5: was asking him yesterday, like, Hey, what is something you're 477 00:20:42,708 --> 00:20:44,028 Speaker 5: working on? He said, I want to be able to 478 00:20:44,068 --> 00:20:46,548 Speaker 5: control my emotions better. I was like, are you saying 479 00:20:46,588 --> 00:20:49,028 Speaker 5: that because you cried in the game. After the game 480 00:20:49,108 --> 00:20:51,148 Speaker 5: this week and he said, yeah, I have to be able. 481 00:20:51,028 --> 00:20:51,588 Speaker 6: To control that. 482 00:20:51,948 --> 00:20:54,508 Speaker 5: I show him to Jason Kelsey's speech in which Kelsey 483 00:20:54,628 --> 00:20:57,028 Speaker 5: is in tears throughout the whole speech, and tell him 484 00:20:57,028 --> 00:20:59,788 Speaker 5: that this is an amazing speech and it's okay to cry. 485 00:21:00,028 --> 00:21:02,228 Speaker 5: And Jason Kelsey made it okay to be whoever you 486 00:21:02,388 --> 00:21:05,028 Speaker 5: were as he did his career, did it on his 487 00:21:05,188 --> 00:21:08,668 Speaker 5: own terms. So fun to watch, and such a great player, fantastic. 488 00:21:08,708 --> 00:21:10,148 Speaker 5: It's gonna be a Hall of Famer one day. 489 00:21:10,308 --> 00:21:12,748 Speaker 2: That's really cool. That is that's a good story. 490 00:21:13,188 --> 00:21:15,988 Speaker 7: The Vince McMahon meme where he's just like and he's crying. 491 00:21:16,068 --> 00:21:22,308 Speaker 7: It's like, Dad, tell me about Jason Kelsey's retirements. I 492 00:21:22,788 --> 00:21:24,988 Speaker 7: got emotional. I'm not even an Eagles fan. I just 493 00:21:25,188 --> 00:21:27,628 Speaker 7: you know the quote he said. And I think this 494 00:21:27,748 --> 00:21:30,108 Speaker 7: was really cool. Stepping on the field was the most 495 00:21:30,148 --> 00:21:33,308 Speaker 7: alive and free I'd ever felt. There was a visceral 496 00:21:33,428 --> 00:21:36,148 Speaker 7: feeling with football, unlike any sport. I could hit somebody, 497 00:21:36,188 --> 00:21:38,428 Speaker 7: I could run around like a crazy lunatic and then 498 00:21:38,428 --> 00:21:39,228 Speaker 7: get told good. 499 00:21:39,148 --> 00:21:42,628 Speaker 2: Job, they said, I love football. And then it's forty 500 00:21:42,668 --> 00:21:44,308 Speaker 2: five minutes. We can find it online. Watch the whole 501 00:21:44,388 --> 00:21:44,788 Speaker 2: entire thing. 502 00:21:45,508 --> 00:21:46,388 Speaker 6: If you love the sport. 503 00:21:46,388 --> 00:21:48,148 Speaker 7: If you watch our show, you probably love the sport 504 00:21:48,548 --> 00:21:51,948 Speaker 7: and if you have any appreciation for the grind and 505 00:21:52,068 --> 00:21:52,628 Speaker 7: the journey. 506 00:21:52,868 --> 00:21:54,908 Speaker 2: I think Jason Kelcey sums it up so well in 507 00:21:54,988 --> 00:21:55,508 Speaker 2: that speech. 508 00:21:55,828 --> 00:21:59,148 Speaker 7: I did love his appreciation for both his mother and 509 00:21:59,348 --> 00:22:01,748 Speaker 7: his father and how they were so important in his life. 510 00:22:01,948 --> 00:22:03,668 Speaker 7: His father played a big role, obviously, and then he 511 00:22:03,708 --> 00:22:06,348 Speaker 7: tells a story about it Andy Reid. When Andy Reid 512 00:22:06,428 --> 00:22:09,028 Speaker 7: drafts him, his father is in tears, and then Andy 513 00:22:09,068 --> 00:22:13,028 Speaker 7: Reid drafts Kelsey, and then it's Jason drafts Travis, and 514 00:22:13,148 --> 00:22:16,348 Speaker 7: Jason's in tears, and this cool symmetry about you know, 515 00:22:16,468 --> 00:22:19,028 Speaker 7: fatherhood and sons. And of course he gets his mother 516 00:22:19,148 --> 00:22:21,508 Speaker 7: so much credit for her journey and doing what she 517 00:22:21,628 --> 00:22:24,188 Speaker 7: wanted to do going to college when it didn't seem 518 00:22:24,228 --> 00:22:26,028 Speaker 7: like that was her path laid out by others. 519 00:22:26,108 --> 00:22:28,628 Speaker 2: I thought it was a beautiful speech. Cool forty five minutes. 520 00:22:28,748 --> 00:22:31,908 Speaker 1: Important guy, very very unique guy. This is a three 521 00:22:31,948 --> 00:22:35,468 Speaker 1: pronged thing that he's a fantastic player. There's a lot 522 00:22:35,468 --> 00:22:39,268 Speaker 1: of fantastic players. He's excellent in the media, but then 523 00:22:39,468 --> 00:22:43,068 Speaker 1: also he's beloved by teammates and fans. Those three things 524 00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:45,428 Speaker 1: all at once. Are very, very very rare and almost 525 00:22:45,548 --> 00:22:47,228 Speaker 1: unheard of for an offensive lineman. 526 00:22:47,308 --> 00:22:48,428 Speaker 6: To that point some. 527 00:22:48,548 --> 00:22:52,028 Speaker 1: Takes on Jason Kelsey. I think he's the most famous 528 00:22:52,148 --> 00:22:55,268 Speaker 1: offensive lineman ever. Like ever, I don't think there's ever 529 00:22:55,348 --> 00:22:57,908 Speaker 1: an offensive lineman who has just known as much as 530 00:22:57,948 --> 00:22:59,348 Speaker 1: he has talked about it, as much as he has 531 00:22:59,508 --> 00:23:01,668 Speaker 1: has as many jerseys in the stands of an offensive 532 00:23:01,668 --> 00:23:03,268 Speaker 1: I think he's the most famous ever. And if that 533 00:23:03,348 --> 00:23:06,708 Speaker 1: sounds superficial, I also think he may be on the 534 00:23:06,788 --> 00:23:08,708 Speaker 1: mountaintop for Philadelphia athletes. 535 00:23:08,828 --> 00:23:11,308 Speaker 6: And I really mean that, Like it's not just that, 536 00:23:11,508 --> 00:23:12,508 Speaker 6: like there's a lot of them. 537 00:23:12,628 --> 00:23:14,988 Speaker 1: And if you want to talk about AI or Dawkins, 538 00:23:15,068 --> 00:23:16,388 Speaker 1: like look at what he was just saying in his 539 00:23:16,468 --> 00:23:19,628 Speaker 1: speech one place. The whole time AI and Dawkins were 540 00:23:19,668 --> 00:23:22,108 Speaker 1: not Kelsey won a Super Bowl, they did not win 541 00:23:22,148 --> 00:23:24,628 Speaker 1: a championship. It's like it's like him and like Jack Schmidt, 542 00:23:24,668 --> 00:23:27,228 Speaker 1: like there's a very few in the Philadelphia which is 543 00:23:27,308 --> 00:23:30,428 Speaker 1: renowned for being hard on athletes. I think he may 544 00:23:30,468 --> 00:23:32,668 Speaker 1: be at the mountain up on offensive lineman a center. 545 00:23:33,028 --> 00:23:34,708 Speaker 1: And I just have to say this again, for all 546 00:23:34,748 --> 00:23:36,348 Speaker 1: the antics and the beards and the batman and all 547 00:23:36,348 --> 00:23:40,028 Speaker 1: the stuff, great player, unbelievable player. This is the guy 548 00:23:40,028 --> 00:23:41,548 Speaker 1: who ran a four to eight at the forty. You know, 549 00:23:41,628 --> 00:23:44,708 Speaker 1: he's a big offensive lineman. He is a great athlete. 550 00:23:44,748 --> 00:23:48,068 Speaker 1: He would do this three times again. So he sings, 551 00:23:48,188 --> 00:23:50,388 Speaker 1: he does podcasts, and you know, there's all sorts of 552 00:23:50,428 --> 00:23:53,468 Speaker 1: fame around him. But at the core, he's sitting there 553 00:23:53,468 --> 00:23:56,148 Speaker 1: at the podium ystery because of this. All that stuff 554 00:23:56,188 --> 00:23:58,068 Speaker 1: goes away if he can't block like that, and he's 555 00:23:58,108 --> 00:24:00,188 Speaker 1: done it for over a decade, He's awesome. He's really 556 00:24:00,348 --> 00:24:03,068 Speaker 1: rare guy. Unbelievable, great speech. Miss him already. 557 00:24:03,228 --> 00:24:05,428 Speaker 3: None of those numbers at the bottom screen exists without 558 00:24:05,468 --> 00:24:08,268 Speaker 3: him being the type of player that he was. His life, though, 559 00:24:08,388 --> 00:24:11,948 Speaker 3: in the last ten months, has vastly changed. I think 560 00:24:12,068 --> 00:24:15,428 Speaker 3: like the popularity of the Kelsey family and the attention 561 00:24:15,748 --> 00:24:20,068 Speaker 3: paid has been fascinating to watch, and the brothers have 562 00:24:20,308 --> 00:24:24,348 Speaker 3: totally embraced this. There's a Kelsey family documentary. People have 563 00:24:24,548 --> 00:24:26,948 Speaker 3: fallen in love with his wife, Kylie Kelsey and the 564 00:24:27,028 --> 00:24:29,668 Speaker 3: way they raised their girls and the dynamic between the 565 00:24:29,708 --> 00:24:31,788 Speaker 3: two of them.
