26
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: I love football and gambling. Damn girl, making someone very

27
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 1: happy somewhere. I love your show and appreciate your takes

28
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: on life. I wish more people were candid ron I'm

29
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: afraid one question for the mail bag and one gambling

30
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: comment question? Do you see any sleeper teams that could

31
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: make a run for the Super Bowl. I don't see

32
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: how anyone beats the Bills, Chiefs, Rams, Packers or Bucks thoughts.

33
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: I know it's early and there always seems to be

34
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: some parody in the NFL. Why don't put the Packers

35
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: in there anymore? Because they lost Davante Adams and they

36
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: couldn't get it done with him, and they'd been to

37
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: what three straight championship I guess they didn't make a

38
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: championship game this year, but they've been the number one

39
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 1: or two seed for three straight years. So bye bye

40
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: Green Bay. Comment. You've said, you don't understand betting on

41
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: season win totals. Got this girl? Don't sleep on her? Like,

42
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: what's the fun in that? Where I think you might

43
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 1: be wrong? Season win totals can never be fifty or

44
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: a hundred dollars. Those bets are investments. For example, if

45
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: you bet thirteen thousand dollars on the Jets to go

46
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: under six and a half wins come January, you could

47
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: and likely will because the Jets are awful, win ten

48
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, which is a lot better return than skills

49
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: stock over that time period. Uh, we'll see what skills

50
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: rips this fall, though, I mean you could argue, I

51
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: mean the market, get buckle up, people, it's about to

52
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: get really, really rocky. So yeah, maybe you're right. Are

53
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: you better off if the stock market if we go

54
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,639
Speaker 1: through chaos for twelve months? Economic uncertainty and chaos. Let's

55
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: just call spade a spade. I mean it is what

56
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: it is. There's I'm not beating around the bush here.

57
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: Are you better off investing large sums of money? Should

58
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: I take twenty dollars and put it on a team's

59
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: win total or put it in the stock The difference

60
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: is with a stock. I'm not a short term stock trader,

61
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: so I'm okay with a short term loss. You can't

62
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: handle some short term losses. You ain't gonna make any

63
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: money in the big leagues, so it doesn't face me.

64
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: There is a finite date with a win and lost total.

65
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: So if I bet fifteen thousand dollars dollars, ten thousand

66
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: dollars on the Jets, on the Giants, on the whoever

67
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: over or under, and I lose, that money is gone.

68
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: Right now, skills I look today, I I'm in the red.

69
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean almost fifty right now. I'm also in the

70
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: part like I have still a lot more positive money,

71
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: but I'm in the red. But ultimately it could say

72
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: in the red for a year, I only lose if

73
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: I sell and if it pops, if I make money.

74
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: And this speaks for any stock anyone that's down. You

75
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: don't lose, right, but you lose if somehow the Jets

76
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: and Robert Slom and Zack Wilson win seven games. So

77
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: there is risk, I would say in football, just because

78
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: so many teams have proven that things can change pretty fast,

79
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: like a market, like the economy, like anything, right, but

80
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: you can kind of see like skills. I bet on

81
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: people paying for video games, no different than I bet

82
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: in the weed industry. Are bet in I have a

83
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: lot of money in e V right now. Is it

84
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: gonna be a year away, five years away? Who knows?

85
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: But I know what's coming the jets hell they can

86
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: win a games? What if they trade for Deebo Samuel?

87
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 1: I don't so, I I hear you. I don't necessarily

88
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: disagree with the premise, but I think the risk is

89
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: equally if not greater. Uh. Just wanted to know your

90
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: thoughts on how I can get into scouting football. Kidding,

91
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: just needed to keep up to rica people asking the questions.

92
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: And you don't want do? I mean you don't want

93
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: to do that? My real question? What are the thoughts

94
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: on the idea of contending windows In the NFL? It

95
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: seems like the consensus way to contend is to accumulate

96
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: high draft picks, build up the trenches, and then draft

97
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: a rookie quarterback to place it into ad free agent

98
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 1: playmakers while he's on his rookie deal and began their

99
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: quote unquote contending window. But it seems like teams have

100
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: different philosophies on the concept. In how to run their business,

101
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: and I'd like to get your thoughts, So shout out

102
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: to my friends Jake and Ben. We're all big fans

103
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: and think you're an integral sports personality. Well, Harry, I

104
00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Uh. I don't think there's a right or

105
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: wrong answer. You know, clearly windows close a little quicker

106
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: than you think. But if you have a great quarterback,

107
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: your window is extended. Like ultimately, the Packers only one

108
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 1: one super Bowl with Aaron Rodgers, but they have had

109
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: a decade long window. They go to the playoffs and

110
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: win the division basically every year. So Josh Allen, the

111
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: Bills are gonna be a Super Bowl contender every year.

112
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: They may never win one. So to me, it's just

113
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: predicated on the quarterback. Right, forty Niners have had this

114
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: window because they've had other players not a quarterback. Now,

115
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: if Trey Lance pops, they're gonna have a long window.

116
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: If he doesn't, their window will shut fast. Right Obviously,

117
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is a great example, you know. I mean,

118
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: if if you just have a great quarterback. Russell Wilson,

119
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: Seattle won one Super Bowl, they got to another, but

120
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: they have been in the mix for nine straight years.

121
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 1: So I think it's just do you have a star quarterback.

122
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: It's it's really that simple, because if you don't, then

123
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: your window can shut at a moment's notice. It really can't.

124
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: If you have Patrick Mahomes like the Chiefs to win

125
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: and tend the fourteen games every single season as long

126
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: as he plays basically every game. If he does, they'll

127
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: be fine. Hell, even the Chargers who have a cheap

128
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: owner a coach that we don't know as any good,

129
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: as long as Herbert plays, they're gonna be contending. And

130
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: when I just mean contending for the playoffs, contending to

131
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: win double digit games, like that's a window because once

132
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: you get to the playoffs that this is not baseball

133
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: or basketball where you're planning a serious one and done baby,

134
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: So you just gotta get to the dance to take

135
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: your chances. Who do you think it's gonna win the

136
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: f C West? And do you think a lot of

137
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: big name players will be traded on draft Day? Uh?

138
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: You know, I don't really do predictions in terms of

139
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: who's gonna win the division because I got no fucking clue.

140
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: If I knew, i'd bet a hundred thousand dollars on

141
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: that team to win like, I don't know. I you know, predictions,

142
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 1: and I get maybe I'm just that's where me and

143
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: the media don't like who cares Like. I think they're

144
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,239
Speaker 1: all pretty good. I would bet on the Chiefs because

145
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: they got the best quarterback and they got the best coach.

146
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: But if you told me that the Raiders were to

147
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: win it or the Chargers were to win it, like

148
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: I could see it. Like I if you told me

149
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: the Broncos disappoint, I could see it. If you told

150
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: me the Broncos win twelve games, I can see it.

151
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I I'm not betting against the Chiefs until

152
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: they lose. But I'm not really like, I don't know.

153
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not. I'm not a wizard here. I

154
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: can't see the future. Do wizards see the future? Um?

155
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: I just kind of wanted to say the word wizard.

156
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: I'm a lifelong Steelers fan, and I'm very excited about

157
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: what the team did so far this off season. By

158
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: signing Miles Jack, who was the offensive and defensive freshman

159
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: of the Year in the PAC twelve Once upon a Time,

160
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: Levi Wallace, addressing a few needs on the old line,

161
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: and even signing for Whisky even though the Steelers didn't

162
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: make a splash trade for a big time quarterback, they

163
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: got young guys on good contracts who have some upside.

164
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 1: My two part question is, if you were GM, would

165
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,120
Speaker 1: you address the quarterback in the draft? If it is

166
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 1: reasonable expectation for the Steelers in terms of competing in

167
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: a loaded an f C, I would not draft any

168
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: of these quarterbacks if I was the Steelers, none of them.

169
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: I would roll with my squad and just see what

170
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: the hell happens, unless maybe in the mid rounds. But

171
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: they've done that before Dodds, Mason, Rudolph and it hasn't

172
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: worked out. So I would I just roll with my squad. Uh,

173
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: listen to your show every day. I'm from New Zealand

174
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: living in the UK. Shot out would be awesome to

175
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: my brother Ryan in the outback in Australia and my

176
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: little bro Matthew living home in New Zealand. What up people?

177
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: What's the inside scoop on Justin Field's development under the

178
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: new staff. Feels like he could take a big jump

179
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: this year or flop. Feels like the tear down of

180
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: the Bears did was the right move. Think the Bears

181
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: need to add wide receiver and depth an on line

182
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: in the draft. I agree they don't have a first

183
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: round pick. I mean I don't know. I there is

184
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: no they haven't been on the field or anything. There's

185
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: been zero development. I think it's gonna be a very,

186
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: very rough year for Justin Fields. And I was a

187
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: big fan of Justin Fields coming out in the draft.

188
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: But as a quarterback, you are so dependent on your GM,

189
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: on your coach, on the offensive line, on the skill guys,

190
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: and he can't control any of that. So their team sucks.

191
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: I mean, their team is not very good. So I

192
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: I would imagine his season does not go great, would

193
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: be my educated guests, as we're sitting here right now,

194
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: and it might be no fault of his own. Are

195
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: you related to Matt Naggie? No, I'm not, but we're

196
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: both bald guys. We're both the buddies, and uh I

197
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: love Matt Maggie. Hey Man. Quick question in the mail bag.

198
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: I don't think Kyler is worth the money he wants.

199
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: Do you think Baker could be a replacement for him?

200
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: At least he plays with the heart. Kyler doesn't want

201
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: its body language stinks, and maybe we get another weapon

202
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: on the other side of the hop and fix the

203
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: line instead of paying a guy that has no heart. Yeah,

204
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: I mean I can't speak to his heart, but his

205
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: body language is terrible. And I know Colin, you know

206
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: he called out Colin like Ultimately, I think Kyler is

207
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: a baseball mentality at heart, a little bit like of

208
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: an NBA guy at heart, selfish, all about himself, and

209
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 1: quarterback is not that spot. Quarterback is a selfless leader.

210
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: You have you either have it or you don't, and

211
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: clearly he lacks some of that. I'm not into tiny

212
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: little players, and I think he is a physical, special athlete.

213
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: He's got a fantastic arm. He's a unique player. I

214
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: just don't like tiny little guys, not in a big

215
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: boy league. And as you've seen, he's gotten destroyed down

216
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: the stretch, absolutely crushed. And sometimes in life, football, business, relationships, whatever,

217
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: you get your ass kicked. Hopefully not physically, but you know, mentally,

218
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,320
Speaker 1: things go wrong, you get fired, you lose your job,

219
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: you lose your business, Things can go really really bad.

220
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,559
Speaker 1: I define some humans, or basically any human, how they

221
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: handle the tough times. Anyone can handle the good times.

222
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: Anyone can raw raw when you're up twenty points or

223
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: raw raw when you triple your income, What about when

224
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: your income disappears? What about when you're getting your ass

225
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: kicked in a playoff game? How do you conduct yourself?

226
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: How do you handle yourself? Kyler got destroyed and then

227
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: all of a sudden has got on a temper tantrum.

228
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: He's not getting paid enough. Like Kyler, you ain't. Patrick

229
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: Mahomes Homie, he had an m v P in a

230
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. You ain't. You couldn't hold Josh Allen's jock.

231
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, who is much closer to your comp is

232
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: much more accomplished, and he hasn't gotten a penny yet

233
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: from his rookie contract. And here's the difference. Lamar was

234
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: a thirty second pick. You're the first. Like ultimately, at

235
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: the end of the day, Kyler Murray's a drama queen.

236
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: There is no way around it. And I can handle

237
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: drama queens. If you're Lebron James, Kyler ain't good enough.

238
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: You have to be better than you're pro problems And

239
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: from just the most basic level for the Cardinals, he's

240
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: been good, right, He's resurrected the franchise to relevancy, but

241
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 1: ultimately to pay you big bucks. Can you just I'm

242
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: not paying you necessarily to win Super Bowls? I'm just

243
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: paying you. Can I win playoff games with you? And

244
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: I don't think you can. He crumbles down the stretch, crumbles,

245
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: I trade him and let someone else give him a

246
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: hundred forty million dollars guaranteed under no circumstances as of

247
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: right now. Maybe if he turned it around the next

248
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: couple of years became a better leader. But how many

249
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: people like dramatically change the more money they get. Doesn't

250
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: money usually just expose who you actually are? So I

251
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: I just I'm not a Calamary guy. I'm not, and

252
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: I've never disputed there. Like he sucks, just not my

253
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 1: style of player. I like bigger, stronger athletes, you know,

254
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 1: who don't bitch and moll in the moment times get

255
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: a little tough the other things. Calamary makes a lot

256
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: of money. You're the number one overall pick. You got

257
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: thirty five million dollars. I'm sorry, right, I'm just not

258
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: giving you more money. What do you think the Vikings

259
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: should do in the upcoming draft and how far do

260
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: you think they can actually go this year? Win a

261
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: new head coach and Kirk Cousin is leading the charge.

262
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: I mean, if their defense improves, I think they can

263
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: win that division. Now, I'm not saying the Packers are

264
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: gonna suck, but I think there's a decent chance. They're

265
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: a nine ten win team. So can the Vikings? Just

266
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: you know, the Packers win nine games, can they win ten?

267
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: The Packers win ten games, can they win eleven? I

268
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: think it's on the table. I think it became toxic

269
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: with Zimmer, negative energy. Uh, just a curmudgeon. It's one

270
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: thing to be Belichick and be a curmudgeon. It's nothing

271
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: to be Zimmer and be a curmudgeon. And the defense sucked,

272
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 1: so it's like Zimmer, you're angry. You're a defensive guy

273
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: in here the coordinator and our defense is atrocious. Bizarre deal. Hey, bro,

274
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: quick question. Do you think the Saints made that weird

275
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: trade this year with the intention of getting picks next

276
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: year in exchange for Sean Payton's contract rights? Both pod

277
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: guests ra awesome, Keep it up. That's a good question.

278
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: I haven't really thought about that. Uh, I don't think so.

279
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I think if Sean Payton wants to come

280
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: back coaching, they're not gonna trade him or whatever, like

281
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: he retired, he left, They have Dennis Allen, like they

282
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: moved on. So to me, if Sean Payton wants to

283
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: go to Dallas Cowboys, like they're not gonna get like

284
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: first round picks, like it's over, he just like it's over.

285
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: Now you can say Grot came back, but they got

286
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: nothing for him. Maybe I'm wrong. I haven't really thought

287
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: about it that much. Not a crazy theory actually the

288
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: more I let it marinate, But I would doubt that

289
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: to be honest with you. Question for the mail back,

290
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: I feel like people are not giving Derek Stingley enough credit.

291
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: He's the corner from l s U and are devaluing

292
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: the fact that his freshman season was his best, like

293
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: somehow is getting worse. He definitely has an injury risk,

294
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: but I just can't see him dropping it out of

295
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: the top ten. What are your thoughts on him? Well,

296
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: I think on the most basic level, when you're evaluating

297
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: a player, you want a guy to get better over time.

298
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: So if you're best season and in football you have

299
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: to go to school for three years, is your freshman year?

300
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: You go what the hell happened in the last two years? Well,

301
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: I think you could justified and go edos you're on

302
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 1: and that situation became a disaster. The COVID season the

303
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: l s U was awful. This year was really weird.

304
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: Obviously he's been injured, but I think, like, does he

305
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: love football? Is he all in? Was he kind of

306
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: a front runner when things were good and the team

307
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: was awesome? Yeah? I don't have enough information on him

308
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: that that's the type thing the scouts that have gone

309
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: through the South and gone through L s U and

310
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: can kind of compare him to the other players in

311
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: recent years, Like do you feel good about the person

312
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: because his physical attributes freak? Do you feel good about

313
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: the person? Do you know what made Richard Sherman Hall

314
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: of Fame guy? He fucking loved football, loved it, loved it.

315
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: Dion Sanders loved football. All these dbs have become great

316
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: are just like football junkies. So is he all in football?

317
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: Like ultimately, Jalen Ramsey like loves to play football, seen

318
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: him alive several times and he's got he's got some flaws,

319
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: but like the dude balls because he's physical, hit, he

320
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: just likes playing football. And I don't know what I

321
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: don't have enough information. I don't know that much about

322
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: the guy, but I hear you big time talent, but

323
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: sometimes we take big time talents with questionable production or

324
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: questionable whatever get you in a little trouble. A lot

325
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: of mocks happen to the Vikings, which seems awfully low

326
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: and below Gardener. I think the difference with Sauce Gardener

327
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: the corner from Cincinnati. He feels safe, and I think

328
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: sometimes you know, you have to pick your spots when

329
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: to be safe in life and when not to be

330
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: safe in life. Like if I'm the Jets or the Giants,

331
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 1: you know, I just need to get some solid players,

332
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: so I would mess with Sauce over Stingley. But if

333
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking to hit a home run like the Vikings,

334
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 1: like I just need a little something something, maybe get

335
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: a guy to prove something not crazy. If I'm a

336
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: shitty team drafting high, I don't think I can take

337
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: the risk. Your segment about being no safe picks in

338
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: the draft resonated a lot with me, and I hate

339
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: seeing so many mocks of us getting Evan Neil. This

340
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 1: guy's a Texans fan, Anthony, like you, I grew up

341
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: in the conventional wisdom that you build the team through

342
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: the trenches. But if the Bengals had done that last year,

343
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: they would have been a six win team instead of

344
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: going to the super Bowl with Jamar Chase. They got

345
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 1: ripped all offseason for taking that risk, and it paid

346
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: off huge. The Browns had a Hall of Fame tackle

347
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: for a decade and he had zero impact in the

348
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: wind column in the league that's never been less physical

349
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: and has never punished the defense more for breathing on

350
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: the quarterback. Why not take more skill swings at skill

351
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 1: positions wide receiver, corner in the first round. I'm not

352
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: convinced the success of the Texans two or three years

353
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: out is going to be decided by Davis Mills being

354
00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: sacked for fewer times. I don't think you're crazy, Yeah,

355
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: I I'm coming around a little bit. To me, if

356
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: they're equal, if I can get a star or a

357
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 1: guy that's a full time like a really good player,

358
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: like ultimately, Jamaar Chase is just a way better player

359
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: than Penais. Now Penai Sul was Anthony Munos or Trent Williams, like,

360
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: I don't think it would have been that crazy. But

361
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: Pena Sul might just be an okay guy, So I

362
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: think you gotta balance. You know, I hear you, But

363
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: at what wide receiver or corner are you taking a

364
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: three overall? Now at thirteen? I hear you, but I'm

365
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: with you, Like just because you take Remember the Giants

366
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago took Andrew Thomas. He ain't

367
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: Tristan worse, you know, and sometimes you take a swing

368
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,199
Speaker 1: for the ceilings, like McKay Beckton. It's kind of been

369
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: a disaster. So last year's draft, i'd say is a

370
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: little bit of an outlier. It was an elite draft.

371
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: Think about the guys. I mean even Waddle had ninety catches,

372
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons, Davante Smith is going to be a stud,

373
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: Like if Justin Fields went eleven, Like they were good

374
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 1: players everywhere everywhere. This draps a little harder. I would

375
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 1: just take who you think is going to be the

376
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: best player, which is honestly the philosophy of most people.

377
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: But when you miss, you could miss on a wide

378
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: receiver too. You know you're you're not guaranteed just because

379
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: you take. You don't take a big guy that that

380
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: guy is gonna be good. That that would be my take.

381
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,360
Speaker 1: Nick Man listen to pod for the fall, don't miss

382
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: an episode. I thought your take on the Packers possible

383
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: future sale was your worst. You talked about on the

384
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: pod how you generate topics to discuss, and I'm curious

385
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: how you come up with this one. The Packers can't

386
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: realistically ever been sold. It says so in the articles

387
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: of incorporation. Pretty sure it requires a vote of the board.

388
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: And even that did happen, what would the vote for that?

389
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: Who would vote for that? All the money after spences

390
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 1: and sale of the assets would be donated to the

391
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: local American legion? Not so, what's the motivation to sell?

392
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: Even if the League tried to force it, the franchise

393
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 1: would have to be gutted top to bottom. They wouldn't

394
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: be the Packers anymore. So I just didn't get where

395
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 1: you were coming from with your take. Well again, I

396
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: don't give a ship. My my take was just like,

397
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: I don't think it makes any sense to have the

398
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,479
Speaker 1: Packers orchestrated, and again, hostile taker over has happened all

399
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 1: the time. Contracts are meant to be broken. I don't

400
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 1: give a ship. How the setup of the Packers is.

401
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: They could be if the League really wants to do

402
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: some hostile takeover they could. I simply have the take

403
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: of this. You guys have gotten pretty lucky, and I

404
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: would imagine you're a packer fan of Rodgers and Farve.

405
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 1: When that ends, you guys are fucked just I mean,

406
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: it's just a simple fact. So I just think this

407
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: the way you guys are constructed, having Mark Murphy, who again,

408
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: I'm not big into people running stuff. My issue with

409
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: Twitter is like Twitter is dictated by the board who's

410
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: invested in like ten of the company combined, they have

411
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: no skin in the game. Ultimately, Jerry, all these owners

412
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: have skin in the game. None of your guys have

413
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: skin in the game. To me, it just doesn't make

414
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: any sense the way it's set up, and it was

415
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: set up a long time ago in the sixties. Well

416
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: guess what we're in two thousand two. Times have changed

417
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: so it could easily be figured out. I don't care

418
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: what the setup, It does not matter to me. Contracts

419
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: don't matter to me. They're broken literally every day. So

420
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: my my take was just simply, how stupid is it

421
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 1: that they don't have an owner? It makes no sense,

422
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: It really doesn't. You can give me the lingo the

423
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: other board direction. None of these the other people are

424
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: relevant that they do not matter. Mark Murphy, who does

425
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: not own the team, represents the team to me. If

426
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: I'm another owner, like I don't love that and I

427
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: want the money, it could easily be figured out, my man, easily.

428
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 1: My question is, do you think we'll see the rise

429
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: from the safety position. I missed the days of guys

430
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: like ed Rea Sean Taylor, Brian Dockins, Troy paul A

431
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: Malo or all the new rules of guys like these impossible. Yeah,

432
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: it's just harder to hit, so hitting isn't allowed, you know,

433
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: So being a big hitter is not like you can't

434
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: be like John Lynch or Brian Dawkins. You just like

435
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 1: get thrown out of a league. The media would want

436
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: you in jail, right. I love those guys. I love

437
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: I watched football for the violence. I don't apologize for

438
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: that at all, but it's not as violent of a

439
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: sport as it once was. Now the athletes are bigger, faster, stronger,

440
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: so the collisions are still really big. But just just

441
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: type in YouTube a game you don't even need to

442
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 1: go back to like the nineties. Type in a game

443
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,679
Speaker 1: from like the late two thousand's. When I got to

444
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: the NFL in two thousand ten, I remember countless guys.

445
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 1: Remember de Sean Jackson. I remember Austin Collie being at

446
00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: games with guys going off on stretchers. It turns out

447
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: they were all okay, but collisions that were just is

448
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: this guy dead that those collisions just don't really happen anymore.

449
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 1: They've been you know. Uh. The rule changes is't officiated

450
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: out of the game, which big picture, probably is the

451
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 1: right move, but it's hard for those specific players to play,

452
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: so the way you have to play is just completely different.

453
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: I think your take on the Bears for this season

454
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 1: isn't without merit, but overall, I think the team isn't

455
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: nearly as bad as the media thinks. I'm from Las Vegas,

456
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: but I'm a lifelong suffering Bears fan, and I might

457
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: be smoking from rose colored glasses, but I think their

458
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 1: opponents next year. By the way, if the Vikings were

459
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: better than the Bears, they would beat the Bears. Vikings

460
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 1: are trashed. I do think the coaching change. No hate

461
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: towards Naggy us bald dudes gotta stick together. I think

462
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: he lost his confidence a couple of years ago. You

463
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: could see it with the play on the field and

464
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: two two. The Bears opponents are among the worst in

465
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: the league. I know you think they're gonna win four games,

466
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 1: but I seeing them being a double digit win team

467
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: in the league next season. They have great running backs

468
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 1: and a solid defense, even though the coaching change. I'm

469
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: high on fields and think that well, their offensive line sucks.

470
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: Great running back seems like a little bit of a stretch.

471
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 1: The dude Khalil's good, Cohen's come back from the knee. Uh.

472
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: Wide receivers, I don't know, not great. The defense Khalil

473
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: max gone. Uh. You know, Andy Jackson has not been

474
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: good for a couple of years. You have a coach

475
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: that we have no clue if he knows what he's doing.

476
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 1: Justin fields just wasn't very good last year. Again, not

477
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: totally his fault, but I I would be stunned if

478
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 1: they won ten games. Uber Fluce would be easily the

479
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: coach of the year. I don't even think it would

480
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: be a discussion. He'd be immediately the coach of the year.

481
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,640
Speaker 1: I'm curious with all your DK talk, did everyone forget

482
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 1: about Tyler Lockett? Seems a better round runner and obviously

483
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: considered a VET. I know it seemed he had some

484
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: mind meld with Russ, but it's I don't really know

485
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 1: what that means. But no one is interested in the cheaper,

486
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: more experienced player or does he have a huge contra

487
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: extension that's keeping bidders away. I've always thought Tyler Lockett's

488
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: like one of the most underrated players in the league.

489
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: Maybe it's because he's small, but dude makes just plays,

490
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,679
Speaker 1: scores touchdowns. Google me touchdowns. The guy scored in like

491
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 1: the last three years. The dude is a productive little guy.

492
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: And maybe it's just he doesn't look the part. But

493
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 1: I've been watching Seattle pretty closely for a decade, and

494
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously DK is probably the most talented wide

495
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: receiver they have have ever had. But Tyler Lockett career

496
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 1: touchdowns last two seasons, eighteen touchdowns. Dude produces man, twenty

497
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,679
Speaker 1: nine years old stud Tyler Lockett could play for my

498
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: squad any day of the week. Really good player. Man.

499
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: He has since two thousand ten touchdowns, eight touchdowns, ten touchdowns,

500
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: eight touchdowns. Think about that, thirty six touchdowns in the

501
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: last four years. I'm not a mathematician. But I'm pretty

502
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: sure that is that equal nine? What's nine times four? Myths?

503
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: Pretty good, Duke, Duke and Ball have a good weekend.
