1 00:00:04,404 --> 00:00:07,244 Speaker 1: Ten Takes is a production of the NFL in partnership 2 00:00:07,244 --> 00:00:08,244 Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio. 3 00:00:24,204 --> 00:00:26,684 Speaker 2: Caleb first day, I only Caleb. I think this is 4 00:00:26,684 --> 00:00:30,124 Speaker 2: the year. It's year two. Let's go personal story. I 5 00:00:30,164 --> 00:00:33,604 Speaker 2: ran into Caleb a couple of weeks ago and I 6 00:00:33,644 --> 00:00:37,684 Speaker 2: had a very very very nice conversation, nothing long, but 7 00:00:37,844 --> 00:00:40,484 Speaker 2: just my takeaway from how does he come off in 8 00:00:40,524 --> 00:00:44,884 Speaker 2: a social setting, Very very solid, very confident, very calm, 9 00:00:44,924 --> 00:00:47,644 Speaker 2: looks you right in the eye. I'm making that sort 10 00:00:47,684 --> 00:00:51,484 Speaker 2: of entry level conversation about, Oh, I'm from the North 11 00:00:51,484 --> 00:00:53,284 Speaker 2: suburb of Chicago, where you live and work? 12 00:00:53,324 --> 00:00:54,844 Speaker 3: You know, where do you like to go out and meet? 13 00:00:54,884 --> 00:00:57,164 Speaker 3: What are the restaurants? He's like, No, I don't go out. 14 00:00:56,924 --> 00:00:58,644 Speaker 3: I don't go out to eat. I don't do anything. 15 00:00:58,644 --> 00:00:59,324 Speaker 3: I'm always home. 16 00:00:59,364 --> 00:01:02,244 Speaker 2: I'm like, Caleb, I like that about you, dude. He 17 00:01:02,324 --> 00:01:04,724 Speaker 2: told me that Dune two is his favorite movie. 18 00:01:04,884 --> 00:01:05,724 Speaker 3: There are certain. 19 00:01:05,484 --> 00:01:07,604 Speaker 2: People that have looked at him as the title character 20 00:01:07,644 --> 00:01:09,884 Speaker 2: in that movie, as this messiah for the bears. 21 00:01:10,244 --> 00:01:13,404 Speaker 3: He just laughs that off. He comes off. 22 00:01:13,564 --> 00:01:16,724 Speaker 2: Very solid, very likable. Is that going to help him 23 00:01:16,724 --> 00:01:18,484 Speaker 2: on third and twelve against the Vikings? 24 00:01:18,524 --> 00:01:21,524 Speaker 3: Of course not. But I'll tell you this. He ended his. 25 00:01:21,564 --> 00:01:25,324 Speaker 2: Rookie year by doing what Bears quarterbacks do not do, 26 00:01:25,804 --> 00:01:28,724 Speaker 2: which is going to lambeau Field and winning the game. 27 00:01:28,844 --> 00:01:30,284 Speaker 3: That was a really big deal. 28 00:01:30,724 --> 00:01:32,444 Speaker 2: Nobody really cared about at the end of the season 29 00:01:32,444 --> 00:01:34,444 Speaker 2: because the Bears were relevant. They lost ten games in 30 00:01:34,484 --> 00:01:37,764 Speaker 2: a row. Bears fans did, Packers fans did. The Bears 31 00:01:37,804 --> 00:01:39,684 Speaker 2: don't go to that building and win. He is currently 32 00:01:39,764 --> 00:01:42,764 Speaker 2: undefeated as a Bears quarterback again lambeau Field, and I 33 00:01:42,804 --> 00:01:44,204 Speaker 2: know he's looking to go to and O next year. 34 00:01:44,204 --> 00:01:47,084 Speaker 2: I think Caleb has a year with all the drama 35 00:01:47,124 --> 00:01:49,004 Speaker 2: that happened and the rug was pulled out underneath him 36 00:01:49,004 --> 00:01:52,244 Speaker 2: and they drafted Penix. Cousins was still given so many 37 00:01:52,284 --> 00:01:56,164 Speaker 2: opportunities to go out there. He started after recovering his achilles. 38 00:01:56,204 --> 00:01:57,804 Speaker 2: He did not play for two or three games. I 39 00:01:57,844 --> 00:02:00,244 Speaker 2: got yanked. He was out there for months last year. 40 00:02:00,364 --> 00:02:02,364 Speaker 2: He did not play well, He did not play up 41 00:02:02,364 --> 00:02:04,084 Speaker 2: to his standards, He did not play up to anybody's 42 00:02:04,084 --> 00:02:06,564 Speaker 2: stay and eventually they pulled them and they should have 43 00:02:06,604 --> 00:02:10,684 Speaker 2: pulled them. So the injustice wasn't up to and including 44 00:02:10,764 --> 00:02:11,164 Speaker 2: the fact that. 45 00:02:11,204 --> 00:02:12,244 Speaker 3: They never gave him a chance. 46 00:02:12,644 --> 00:02:15,644 Speaker 2: They gave him a chance, but understand this if the 47 00:02:15,644 --> 00:02:19,364 Speaker 2: Falcons had their druthers, Kirk Cousins would never play another. 48 00:02:19,164 --> 00:02:21,084 Speaker 3: Down for them. They don't want that to happen. 49 00:02:21,124 --> 00:02:23,484 Speaker 2: They want Michael Pennix to blow up and become a star, 50 00:02:23,884 --> 00:02:26,244 Speaker 2: and Kirk Cousins is an afterthought and we never talk 51 00:02:26,244 --> 00:02:28,444 Speaker 2: about him in the show again in a Falcons uniform. 52 00:02:28,724 --> 00:02:30,204 Speaker 3: That's how this thing is supposed to go. 53 00:02:30,564 --> 00:02:33,044 Speaker 2: If kirk Cousins is playing for the Falcons this year 54 00:02:33,164 --> 00:02:34,004 Speaker 2: or next year. 55 00:02:34,004 --> 00:02:37,164 Speaker 3: Something went wrong. Pennix either doesn't have it or it 56 00:02:37,164 --> 00:02:37,684 Speaker 3: gets hurt. 57 00:02:37,764 --> 00:02:40,724 Speaker 2: We don't want to see kirk Cousins on the Falcons anymore. 58 00:02:40,724 --> 00:02:43,724 Speaker 2: Nobody does unless you're with Kirk Cousins. So maybe there 59 00:02:43,764 --> 00:02:45,804 Speaker 2: is some sort of trade. Maybe there's no destination. 60 00:02:46,284 --> 00:02:46,764 Speaker 3: I don't know. 61 00:02:46,844 --> 00:02:50,044 Speaker 2: He has a massive contract, He has his whole family 62 00:02:50,124 --> 00:02:51,244 Speaker 2: set up there in Atlanta. 63 00:02:51,524 --> 00:02:53,644 Speaker 3: It feels like this may be the last stop I know. 64 00:02:53,684 --> 00:02:55,964 Speaker 2: There was talk about, well, he's going to go to Cleveland, 65 00:02:56,004 --> 00:02:57,204 Speaker 2: He's gonna go to Pittsburgh. 66 00:02:57,284 --> 00:02:57,804 Speaker 3: I don't think. 67 00:02:57,844 --> 00:03:00,564 Speaker 2: So do yourself a favor and watch this Netflix show 68 00:03:00,804 --> 00:03:02,724 Speaker 2: and watch the family roots and the connection. 69 00:03:02,964 --> 00:03:04,804 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say snark side. 70 00:03:05,044 --> 00:03:07,924 Speaker 2: I find myself very charmed by watching the cousin's kids. 71 00:03:08,204 --> 00:03:11,284 Speaker 2: His wife Julie in the stands explaining football to the 72 00:03:11,324 --> 00:03:12,884 Speaker 2: little kid is adorable. 73 00:03:12,924 --> 00:03:15,604 Speaker 3: It is relatable. It's very funny how she does it. 74 00:03:16,004 --> 00:03:17,204 Speaker 3: I just don't see them. 75 00:03:17,084 --> 00:03:19,644 Speaker 2: Saying, you know what, let's pack up again so we 76 00:03:19,684 --> 00:03:22,084 Speaker 2: can have a shot at starting somewhere else where. 77 00:03:22,284 --> 00:03:25,284 Speaker 3: Let's be honest. They're going to replace us immediately there too. 78 00:03:25,604 --> 00:03:27,364 Speaker 3: I think this feels like the last stop. 79 00:03:27,564 --> 00:03:29,564 Speaker 2: And if the Falcons have their choice, he will not 80 00:03:29,564 --> 00:03:30,364 Speaker 2: play for them anymore. 81 00:03:30,364 --> 00:03:31,724 Speaker 3: He'll sit on the bench and earn his money. 82 00:03:32,884 --> 00:03:35,484 Speaker 2: I'm feeling what Max Chrisby is saying here, and you 83 00:03:35,964 --> 00:03:38,404 Speaker 2: can really feel it in his mind and his words 84 00:03:38,404 --> 00:03:40,764 Speaker 2: that look at what he's been through. Okay, he comes 85 00:03:40,804 --> 00:03:42,884 Speaker 2: out of this small school, he gets into the league, 86 00:03:42,964 --> 00:03:45,764 Speaker 2: and the Raiders coaches, you know, John Gruden was there. 87 00:03:45,844 --> 00:03:49,684 Speaker 2: That ends in infamy. Josh McDaniels was terrible. It didn't 88 00:03:49,684 --> 00:03:52,724 Speaker 2: work out at all. Antonio Pierce, they tried something, it 89 00:03:52,804 --> 00:03:56,404 Speaker 2: really didn't work. And now you have an adult in 90 00:03:56,484 --> 00:03:57,724 Speaker 2: the room, the culture. 91 00:03:57,844 --> 00:03:59,844 Speaker 3: Yes, I don't know how many games Pete Carroll's going 92 00:03:59,884 --> 00:04:00,164 Speaker 3: to win. 93 00:04:00,484 --> 00:04:01,844 Speaker 2: I know that the Raiders are going to be a 94 00:04:01,844 --> 00:04:03,204 Speaker 2: good professional product. 95 00:04:04,124 --> 00:04:06,804 Speaker 3: I know that that's a low bar, but often they're not. 96 00:04:07,484 --> 00:04:10,724 Speaker 2: Often they're not. So they have a guy who knows 97 00:04:10,764 --> 00:04:12,684 Speaker 2: how to put a product on the field. They have 98 00:04:12,724 --> 00:04:15,204 Speaker 2: a quarterback in Gino who knows how to put an 99 00:04:15,204 --> 00:04:17,644 Speaker 2: offense on the field. Like, the Raiders are going to be, 100 00:04:17,684 --> 00:04:20,924 Speaker 2: at the very very worst respectable this year. They're not 101 00:04:20,964 --> 00:04:23,204 Speaker 2: going to embarrass themselves. They're not going to get blown out. 102 00:04:23,364 --> 00:04:25,964 Speaker 2: I don't see this team going five and twelve or 103 00:04:26,004 --> 00:04:29,044 Speaker 2: something like that. It's just the problem of like, we 104 00:04:29,084 --> 00:04:31,284 Speaker 2: all like the Raiders. It's a good story. We all 105 00:04:31,324 --> 00:04:33,124 Speaker 2: like the Chiefs, we all like the Chargers, we're all 106 00:04:33,164 --> 00:04:35,884 Speaker 2: excited about the Broncos. It's a tough time if you 107 00:04:35,964 --> 00:04:38,124 Speaker 2: take these Raiders and you want to drop them into 108 00:04:38,204 --> 00:04:40,924 Speaker 2: the I don't know, let's say the NFC South or 109 00:04:40,924 --> 00:04:44,164 Speaker 2: the AFC South, different conversation. But I like the fact 110 00:04:44,164 --> 00:04:45,964 Speaker 2: that the Raiders are going to matter in their own 111 00:04:46,004 --> 00:04:48,084 Speaker 2: way this year. I think going to matter in December. 112 00:04:48,164 --> 00:04:50,924 Speaker 2: I'm not ready to say that yet. It's a brand 113 00:04:50,964 --> 00:04:53,004 Speaker 2: new deal there and there's a lot of new pieces, 114 00:04:53,044 --> 00:04:55,044 Speaker 2: and I wish the Raiders would be great. I think 115 00:04:55,084 --> 00:04:58,644 Speaker 2: they'll be respectable, and I hope that that's enough well. 116 00:04:58,684 --> 00:05:00,324 Speaker 2: Salary cap is one of my favorite things that the 117 00:05:00,404 --> 00:05:03,404 Speaker 2: NFL does. I absolutely adore it. I love it. It is 118 00:05:03,484 --> 00:05:05,924 Speaker 2: the word of quality. It is why you have teams. 119 00:05:06,444 --> 00:05:09,124 Speaker 2: I've seen the Carolina Panthers in the Super Bowl before, 120 00:05:09,404 --> 00:05:12,204 Speaker 2: I've seen a name any team. It's not just every 121 00:05:12,244 --> 00:05:16,244 Speaker 2: single year Cowboys and Giants, and like you know, we 122 00:05:16,324 --> 00:05:19,124 Speaker 2: mentioned Baseball. Look last year's the Yankees versus Dodgers. 123 00:05:19,164 --> 00:05:20,404 Speaker 3: I think it sucks. I don't like it. 124 00:05:20,444 --> 00:05:22,084 Speaker 2: I love that we have the salary cap, and I 125 00:05:22,124 --> 00:05:24,404 Speaker 2: do think it makes it fair. I don't think it's 126 00:05:24,444 --> 00:05:27,364 Speaker 2: a terrible idea from Dion. But at the roots of it, 127 00:05:27,804 --> 00:05:29,484 Speaker 2: it was not too long ago. It was about five 128 00:05:29,564 --> 00:05:32,284 Speaker 2: years ago. We were in this ridiculous world that we 129 00:05:32,364 --> 00:05:36,004 Speaker 2: all sort of just stomached, where Johnny Menzel could not 130 00:05:36,284 --> 00:05:39,884 Speaker 2: accept one thousand dollars to sign some autographs, and Terrelle 131 00:05:39,964 --> 00:05:44,324 Speaker 2: Pryor would be suspended for getting some tattoos, and the 132 00:05:44,404 --> 00:05:47,404 Speaker 2: Livy Duns of the world could not sell yoga pants. 133 00:05:47,484 --> 00:05:50,524 Speaker 2: They could not or they would be suspended. And everyone said, 134 00:05:50,524 --> 00:05:53,564 Speaker 2: we should fix that. It's ridiculous, and it was, and 135 00:05:53,604 --> 00:05:55,684 Speaker 2: they did fix it. And there's a lot of me 136 00:05:55,764 --> 00:05:58,124 Speaker 2: that wishes it could have just stopped there where name 137 00:05:58,244 --> 00:06:01,284 Speaker 2: image like is great, do whatever you want, make millions 138 00:06:01,364 --> 00:06:04,764 Speaker 2: of dollars and all that stuff you should, but this straight. 139 00:06:05,324 --> 00:06:07,284 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go here for half a million, but now 140 00:06:07,284 --> 00:06:08,884 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go here for six hundred thousand. 141 00:06:08,924 --> 00:06:10,604 Speaker 3: And to Dion's point, I'm not even that good of 142 00:06:10,644 --> 00:06:11,044 Speaker 3: a player. 143 00:06:11,124 --> 00:06:13,364 Speaker 2: I'm just a wash in this tidal wave of money 144 00:06:13,404 --> 00:06:16,364 Speaker 2: and one upmanship. I think it is a full Pandora's 145 00:06:16,404 --> 00:06:19,124 Speaker 2: box that is a huge turnoff, and I think is 146 00:06:19,124 --> 00:06:22,964 Speaker 2: intimidating for fans and off putting maybe for parents. And 147 00:06:23,004 --> 00:06:25,924 Speaker 2: I just I wish it could have stopped at yoga 148 00:06:25,964 --> 00:06:27,204 Speaker 2: pants and free tattoos. 149 00:06:27,244 --> 00:06:30,524 Speaker 3: And now I don't know when it ever will. Oysters, 150 00:06:30,844 --> 00:06:31,644 Speaker 3: I love them. 151 00:06:31,804 --> 00:06:37,084 Speaker 2: They're not for everybody, rich, fancy, intoxicating, not for everybody. 152 00:06:37,124 --> 00:06:39,724 Speaker 3: Oysters are Steffan Diggs. I'm a big fan of them. 153 00:06:39,924 --> 00:06:42,644 Speaker 3: Not everyone is. They're a little bit polarizing. 154 00:06:43,124 --> 00:06:44,684 Speaker 2: If you want to take it to the place where 155 00:06:44,724 --> 00:06:47,804 Speaker 2: you say, you know they're good out on a boat, fine, 156 00:06:48,084 --> 00:06:50,524 Speaker 2: I'm not doing that. But there's a lot of fixings 157 00:06:50,604 --> 00:06:52,964 Speaker 2: with it, and there's some people who can't handle the oysters. 158 00:06:52,964 --> 00:06:55,284 Speaker 2: They like, maybe three of them. They order the half 159 00:06:55,324 --> 00:06:57,764 Speaker 2: dozen the full does and they're like, that's too much. 160 00:06:57,844 --> 00:06:59,924 Speaker 2: I need to get out of this plate of oysters. 161 00:07:00,084 --> 00:07:03,764 Speaker 2: It's expensive, it's exotic among foods. 162 00:07:03,804 --> 00:07:04,924 Speaker 3: It's kind of fashionable. 163 00:07:04,924 --> 00:07:06,484 Speaker 2: I don't know what all that green crap is all 164 00:07:06,484 --> 00:07:09,324 Speaker 2: over the thoist oysters, but I like just a little lemon, 165 00:07:09,604 --> 00:07:11,444 Speaker 2: maybe some horse rash for some spice. 166 00:07:11,964 --> 00:07:15,204 Speaker 3: I like oysters.

Everyone's always looking and 178 00:07:44,084 --> 00:07:45,164 Speaker 2: when you get down to. 179 00:07:45,204 --> 00:07:49,884 Speaker 3: It, are the sism fajitas that special.

The only meat 184 00:07:59,964 --> 00:08:01,244 Speaker 2: is the third of it, and like in the end, 185 00:08:01,324 --> 00:08:02,644 Speaker 2: it leaves you feeling. 186 00:08:02,644 --> 00:08:04,284 Speaker 3: A little dissatisfied. 187 00:08:04,364 --> 00:08:07,164 Speaker 2: At the end of the meal, there's always this risk 188 00:08:07,204 --> 00:08:09,884 Speaker 2: where the server says, please don't touch. Sometimes the pan 189 00:08:10,044 --> 00:08:13,284 Speaker 2: has that like oven holder over the handle. 190 00:08:13,564 --> 00:08:15,684 Speaker 3: It's a lot of experience. You can't just get a 191 00:08:15,684 --> 00:08:17,604 Speaker 3: burger at steak. I would say that. 192 00:08:17,684 --> 00:08:19,724 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott right now in his career is. 193 00:08:19,684 --> 00:08:21,084 Speaker 3: The cisling paheta platter. 194 00:08:21,284 --> 00:08:25,724 Speaker 2: Well, my dessert is something called Dippin' dots, a dessert 195 00:08:25,804 --> 00:08:29,604 Speaker 2: that I have long hated and had beef with because Dippin' 196 00:08:29,604 --> 00:08:32,484 Speaker 2: Dots and the people there had the audacity to come 197 00:08:32,484 --> 00:08:35,244 Speaker 2: out twenty twenty five years ago and call themselves the 198 00:08:35,404 --> 00:08:38,404 Speaker 2: ice cream of the future. We are now in that 199 00:08:38,444 --> 00:08:40,804 Speaker 2: future that they proclaimed to be the naming the ice 200 00:08:40,844 --> 00:08:43,164 Speaker 2: cream of And I don't see people walking around with Dippin' 201 00:08:43,164 --> 00:08:45,484 Speaker 2: dots no more than I see them on hoverboards.

You're a good guy and a 205 00:08:56,524 --> 00:08:58,484 Speaker 2: good leader, and you got a new coach and all 206 00:08:58,564 --> 00:09:02,164 Speaker 2: kinds of talent. But I've been waiting for dippin' dots. 207 00:09:01,884 --> 00:09:02,804 Speaker 3: My entire life. 208 00:09:03,164 --> 00:09:06,964 Speaker 2: I think will be America's sport of note before Dippin' 209 00:09:06,964 --> 00:09:09,604 Speaker 2: dots are the ice cream of the present.

I am now arrived 211 00:09:12,964 --> 00:09:15,604 Speaker 2: season where I'm oh, I don't know, like a second 212 00:09:15,604 --> 00:09:18,204 Speaker 2: team All Pro, where I'm winning playoff games where I'm 213 00:09:18,484 --> 00:09:20,124 Speaker 2: throwing for five thousand yards. 214 00:09:20,164 --> 00:09:22,124 Speaker 3: I'm winning. I'm throwing at Travis Hunter. I'm doing this. 215 00:09:22,164 --> 00:09:22,604 Speaker 3: I'm doing that. 216 00:09:22,724 --> 00:09:26,844 Speaker 2: Until then, Dippin' dots, Trevor Lawrence, I hate to do 217 00:09:26,884 --> 00:09:27,204 Speaker 2: it and. 218 00:09:27,204 --> 00:09:27,804 Speaker 3: Prove me wrong. 219 00:09:29,004 --> 00:09:35,284 Speaker 2: Most interesting people anybody GMS coaches players in the NFC East, 220 00:09:35,284 --> 00:09:36,804 Speaker 2: I'm going to start. I'm going to start with the 221 00:09:36,884 --> 00:09:38,684 Speaker 2: name that everybody knows, and you won't believe I only 222 00:09:38,724 --> 00:09:42,404 Speaker 2: have him at five. I have Saquon Barkley at number five. 223 00:09:42,524 --> 00:09:45,364 Speaker 2: You know what's interesting about Saquon Barkley. He's really trying 224 00:09:45,364 --> 00:09:47,524 Speaker 2: to defy history right now, and if you look at 225 00:09:47,524 --> 00:09:50,244 Speaker 2: the two thousand yard rushers the following season. 226 00:09:50,284 --> 00:09:51,964 Speaker 3: The most anybody has had is. 227 00:09:51,924 --> 00:09:54,604 Speaker 2: Barry Sanders and almost a six to seven hundred yard 228 00:09:54,724 --> 00:09:55,244 Speaker 2: drop off. 229 00:09:55,444 --> 00:09:58,084 Speaker 3: It happens everybody is at the Church of Saquon. 230 00:09:58,164 --> 00:10:00,364 Speaker 2: He's the most gifted runners ever, one of the best 231 00:10:00,364 --> 00:10:03,764 Speaker 2: seasons ever. Everything about NFL history says he's not going 232 00:10:03,804 --> 00:10:05,884 Speaker 2: to be nearly as productive as he was this year. 233 00:10:05,964 --> 00:10:08,804 Speaker 2: That's just a fact. Maybe he defies it. I think 234 00:10:08,844 --> 00:10:11,924 Speaker 2: that's fascinating to watch Number four. See this is why 235 00:10:11,964 --> 00:10:16,284 Speaker 2: this list is fun. I go from Saquan to Adam Peters. 236 00:10:16,644 --> 00:10:19,004 Speaker 2: This is the general manager of the Washington Commanders, a 237 00:10:19,004 --> 00:10:22,284 Speaker 2: guy who is relatively new, who has been a lot 238 00:10:22,404 --> 00:10:24,964 Speaker 2: rare experienced, but never really been a GM before. 239 00:10:25,124 --> 00:10:26,364 Speaker 3: He's got some things on his plate. 240 00:10:26,444 --> 00:10:28,884 Speaker 2: Now we have this Terry McLaurin situation, that is this 241 00:10:28,964 --> 00:10:31,604 Speaker 2: flying the ointment of this wonderful time since Shane Daniels 242 00:10:31,644 --> 00:10:33,684 Speaker 2: has shown up. I also think it's interesting that Adam 243 00:10:33,724 --> 00:10:36,644 Speaker 2: Peters has a background with San Francisco, who had maybe 244 00:10:36,684 --> 00:10:39,844 Speaker 2: a similar situation with Deebo. Samuel ended up paying him 245 00:10:39,844 --> 00:10:41,364 Speaker 2: a lot of money, it ended up not being the 246 00:10:41,364 --> 00:10:44,084 Speaker 2: best investment, and now he is actually back in Washington, 247 00:10:44,244 --> 00:10:46,844 Speaker 2: So there's all kinds of symmetry. Watch Adam Peters, especially 248 00:10:46,924 --> 00:10:50,764 Speaker 2: over the next month. Number Three Jackson Dart rookie quarterback 249 00:10:50,804 --> 00:10:52,484 Speaker 2: New York Giants. When are we going to see this guy? 250 00:10:52,764 --> 00:10:55,004 Speaker 2: When are we gonna see him? Where is he on 251 00:10:55,044 --> 00:10:58,404 Speaker 2: the depth chart? He's got Russ, He's got Jamis. At 252 00:10:58,444 --> 00:11:00,844 Speaker 2: what point does Jackson Dart start? I was thinking we're 253 00:11:00,844 --> 00:11:02,884 Speaker 2: gonna talk a little bit about the Falcons this year 254 00:11:04,564 --> 00:11:07,484 Speaker 2: because Kirk Cousins is on the Netflix show and we 255 00:11:07,524 --> 00:11:09,484 Speaker 2: had Michael Pennix just sitting there and sitting there, and 256 00:11:09,524 --> 00:11:11,924 Speaker 2: Cousins wasn't playing well and the Falcons were losing. They 257 00:11:11,964 --> 00:11:14,684 Speaker 2: finally just finally pulled them late in the season. Did 258 00:11:14,724 --> 00:11:16,204 Speaker 2: they do the same with Dart or is it one 259 00:11:16,204 --> 00:11:18,804 Speaker 2: of the veterans all the way? Number two is very simple. 260 00:11:19,204 --> 00:11:22,404 Speaker 2: I have Jaydeon Daniels number two. I've never seen a 261 00:11:22,444 --> 00:11:24,364 Speaker 2: rookie season like that from any quarterback. 262 00:11:24,404 --> 00:11:25,804 Speaker 3: And I was very young. 263 00:11:25,644 --> 00:11:27,524 Speaker 2: When Marino was there, and there's been some other guys 264 00:11:27,564 --> 00:11:30,244 Speaker 2: who have been great, never so effortless. Can he really 265 00:11:30,324 --> 00:11:33,764 Speaker 2: run that back? I saw Cam Newton was talking recently, 266 00:11:34,164 --> 00:11:37,524 Speaker 2: another guy who had a prolific rookie season about Robert 267 00:11:37,564 --> 00:11:40,164 Speaker 2: Griffin third and how he was amazing for the same 268 00:11:40,244 --> 00:11:42,204 Speaker 2: franchise as a rookie they ended up getting injured. 269 00:11:42,484 --> 00:11:43,724 Speaker 3: I think Argi three's. 270 00:11:43,444 --> 00:11:45,004 Speaker 2: Playing style has a lot to do with that, and 271 00:11:45,084 --> 00:11:47,364 Speaker 2: how Mike Shanahan used him and got him injured. I 272 00:11:47,364 --> 00:11:50,044 Speaker 2: don't think Jade Daniels is that kind of realm, but 273 00:11:50,084 --> 00:11:51,964 Speaker 2: I'd love to see what do you do for an encore? 274 00:11:52,124 --> 00:11:54,124 Speaker 2: Is there a drop off or is that just the 275 00:11:54,164 --> 00:11:57,244 Speaker 2: beginning of that experience? And Number one, the most interesting 276 00:11:57,284 --> 00:11:59,524 Speaker 2: person I have in the NFC East. It's hard to 277 00:11:59,564 --> 00:12:02,284 Speaker 2: fit his name is name is Brian Schottenheimer, the head 278 00:12:02,284 --> 00:12:05,164 Speaker 2: coach of the Dallas Cowboys, who were just talking about earlier. 279 00:12:05,284 --> 00:12:07,604 Speaker 2: There's all this talk about a breath of fresh air 280 00:12:07,644 --> 00:12:10,164 Speaker 2: in Dallas. This is a guy who has been around 281 00:12:10,284 --> 00:12:14,084 Speaker 2: for years, nay decades. I was just watching the twenty 282 00:12:14,204 --> 00:12:17,084 Speaker 2: ten divisional game between the Jets and the Patriots that 283 00:12:17,204 --> 00:12:20,124 Speaker 2: can't wait Bart Scott game. Brian Schottenneimer was the offensive 284 00:12:20,124 --> 00:12:21,404 Speaker 2: coordinator for Rex Ryan there. 285 00:12:21,404 --> 00:12:25,764 Speaker 3: That was fifteen years ago. He has been around. He 286 00:12:25,844 --> 00:12:27,004 Speaker 3: has finally been. 287 00:12:26,844 --> 00:12:30,124 Speaker 2: Given his shot, and he's got a backwards advisor and 288 00:12:30,164 --> 00:12:32,844 Speaker 2: they're playing ping pong and they're having team dinners and 289 00:12:32,924 --> 00:12:36,204 Speaker 2: everybody seems to really like it. Will they really like 290 00:12:36,244 --> 00:12:39,524 Speaker 2: it in December and January? I'm team Schottenheimer. I like 291 00:12:39,604 --> 00:12:42,244 Speaker 2: the vibe that he's bringing. But the Dallas Cowboys coach 292 00:12:42,284 --> 00:12:44,204 Speaker 2: brand new at this stage of his life, a first 293 00:12:44,284 --> 00:12:45,004 Speaker 2: time head coach. 294 00:12:45,444 --> 00:12:46,964 Speaker 3: Very interesting.
