1 00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,628 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in 2 00:00:06,708 --> 00:00:26,828 Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio. Good Morning, good Morning Football is rights 3 00:00:26,948 --> 00:00:30,748 Speaker 1: one of these four faces thinks the Seahawks should trade 4 00:00:31,268 --> 00:00:35,348 Speaker 1: DK Metcalf. What is it? Newsman? Will Selva? Is it 5 00:00:35,428 --> 00:00:39,068 Speaker 1: Super Bowl Winner Sean O'Hara, is it Emmy Winner Peter Schrager? 6 00:00:39,308 --> 00:00:41,788 Speaker 1: Or is it myself? Let's find out, guys. Today is 7 00:00:41,788 --> 00:00:44,068 Speaker 1: going to be a wild ride. It's Good Morning Football. 8 00:00:44,068 --> 00:00:47,108 Speaker 1: With the lead block off we go a block a 9 00:00:47,188 --> 00:00:50,708 Speaker 1: Wednesday lead block. In the meantime, the Seahawks were one 10 00:00:50,708 --> 00:00:53,108 Speaker 1: of several teams to hold meditatory mini camp yesterday. We're 11 00:00:53,108 --> 00:00:55,068 Speaker 1: gonna bring in the latest from those camps all around 12 00:00:55,108 --> 00:00:57,388 Speaker 1: the league all throughout the show. Quick feet, quick feet, 13 00:00:57,428 --> 00:01:02,188 Speaker 1: slow feet, don't eat. However, sticking with Seattle, DK Metcalf 14 00:01:02,428 --> 00:01:06,028 Speaker 1: was not present at mini camp yesterday, and according to 15 00:01:06,028 --> 00:01:08,708 Speaker 1: our own Tom Pelliser, who always knows the affluence, was 16 00:01:08,748 --> 00:01:11,108 Speaker 1: not excused. The Seahawks did not say sure, you cannot 17 00:01:11,108 --> 00:01:13,628 Speaker 1: be here, Dk. No, the team is still working towards 18 00:01:13,628 --> 00:01:15,308 Speaker 1: a new deal with the fourth year wide out as 19 00:01:15,308 --> 00:01:19,228 Speaker 1: he recovers from foot surgery. So guys, let's talk some 20 00:01:19,388 --> 00:01:23,868 Speaker 1: Seahawks Russell Wilson is gone, Bobby Wagner is gone. We're 21 00:01:23,908 --> 00:01:26,428 Speaker 1: going to ask the nuclear question about the Seattle Seahawks. 22 00:01:26,468 --> 00:01:30,628 Speaker 1: Should they consider trading DK and Metcalf. Peter makes some TV. 23 00:01:31,268 --> 00:01:34,148 Speaker 1: So many teams would love to have DK Metcalf because 24 00:01:34,188 --> 00:01:36,828 Speaker 1: he's a twenty four year old superstar and he's still 25 00:01:36,868 --> 00:01:39,588 Speaker 1: just getting started. Now here's how it works. Basically, Jimmy 26 00:01:39,588 --> 00:01:43,268 Speaker 1: Garoppolo his agents reached out to the Niners and were like, look, 27 00:01:43,388 --> 00:01:46,068 Speaker 1: he can't practice. We're not going to go to mini camp. 28 00:01:46,148 --> 00:01:48,348 Speaker 1: Is that cool with you? Guys? John Lynch and Kyle 29 00:01:48,348 --> 00:01:50,508 Speaker 1: Shanahan were like, Yeah, it's fine. We're not gonna make 30 00:01:50,548 --> 00:01:52,588 Speaker 1: a big deal. We're not gonna find him Seattle. Dk 31 00:01:52,708 --> 00:01:55,188 Speaker 1: Metcalf is working on his foot. There was no such 32 00:01:55,668 --> 00:01:59,188 Speaker 1: agreement between the DK Metcalf side and the Seattle side, 33 00:01:59,228 --> 00:02:01,748 Speaker 1: so he could be fined and this could get contentious, 34 00:02:01,828 --> 00:02:04,588 Speaker 1: and you look at the what he brings to this team. 35 00:02:05,228 --> 00:02:08,388 Speaker 1: He is there stud on offense as much as this 36 00:02:08,468 --> 00:02:10,748 Speaker 1: is a running team and as much as we love Lockett. 37 00:02:11,388 --> 00:02:14,548 Speaker 1: I did a list of the top five wide receivers 38 00:02:14,628 --> 00:02:18,068 Speaker 1: under the age of twenty five earlier this week, and 39 00:02:18,148 --> 00:02:21,188 Speaker 1: it made in Middletle news that I had DK Metcalf 40 00:02:21,228 --> 00:02:24,788 Speaker 1: at four, and the news was why isn't he higher? Like? 41 00:02:25,068 --> 00:02:28,748 Speaker 1: DK Metcalf is a beast. I don't think Seattle should 42 00:02:28,788 --> 00:02:31,028 Speaker 1: trade him. I don't think they should listen to trade offers. 43 00:02:31,108 --> 00:02:33,588 Speaker 1: I think he might be their best offensive player. And 44 00:02:33,628 --> 00:02:34,988 Speaker 1: I think you've got to figure out a way to 45 00:02:35,028 --> 00:02:37,148 Speaker 1: make this thing right. You can't just keep on letting 46 00:02:37,188 --> 00:02:38,908 Speaker 1: people out the building. You need to be competitive. You 47 00:02:38,948 --> 00:02:40,508 Speaker 1: need to have these guys in the building. If he's 48 00:02:40,508 --> 00:02:42,508 Speaker 1: a thirty two year old wide receiver and he's griping 49 00:02:42,548 --> 00:02:44,828 Speaker 1: about his stuff, if he's a linebacker like Bobby Wagner, 50 00:02:44,868 --> 00:02:47,308 Speaker 1: who might be on the backside of his career, fine, fine, 51 00:02:47,308 --> 00:02:49,388 Speaker 1: you want to start a new He's twenty four and 52 00:02:49,468 --> 00:02:52,108 Speaker 1: the draft has already passed, so you're not getting a 53 00:02:52,148 --> 00:02:54,268 Speaker 1: top ten pick. You're not getting a top twenty pick 54 00:02:54,388 --> 00:02:56,668 Speaker 1: until next year's class. You gotta hang on to DK 55 00:02:56,788 --> 00:02:59,068 Speaker 1: Metcalf and you gotta figure this thing out. Yeah, shregs, 56 00:02:59,068 --> 00:03:01,428 Speaker 1: hang on to him at all costs. Right now. You 57 00:03:01,508 --> 00:03:04,588 Speaker 1: already traded your best offensive player in Russell Wilson. How 58 00:03:04,588 --> 00:03:07,468 Speaker 1: many more assets do you need to gather? I think 59 00:03:07,468 --> 00:03:09,268 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, he's got to put his foot down on 60 00:03:09,308 --> 00:03:11,788 Speaker 1: this and just say, look, well it's about communication, DK, 61 00:03:11,948 --> 00:03:13,668 Speaker 1: what do you need what's going on? I feel like 62 00:03:13,668 --> 00:03:16,548 Speaker 1: you can basically plug in any year and there's a 63 00:03:16,588 --> 00:03:19,748 Speaker 1: wide receiver that's unhappy about something. We've seen Deebo Samuel 64 00:03:19,868 --> 00:03:22,788 Speaker 1: show his frustrations. Obviously he showed up at Mini camp 65 00:03:22,828 --> 00:03:24,588 Speaker 1: and I'll be practicing, but least he's there. I think 66 00:03:24,588 --> 00:03:27,948 Speaker 1: when you look at DK and offensively what he brings 67 00:03:27,948 --> 00:03:30,468 Speaker 1: to this offense in terms of identity, Look, he's the 68 00:03:30,468 --> 00:03:32,828 Speaker 1: explosive player that you talked about. You love that he's young. 69 00:03:32,908 --> 00:03:35,668 Speaker 1: You sure he's got a little bit of a spark 70 00:03:35,668 --> 00:03:37,988 Speaker 1: plug to him and he you know, sometimes he gets 71 00:03:38,228 --> 00:03:40,908 Speaker 1: upset and gets angry. That's okay. I think you need that. 72 00:03:41,068 --> 00:03:43,428 Speaker 1: I think certainly with a young quarterback, they're gonna have 73 00:03:43,468 --> 00:03:46,068 Speaker 1: to find a way to make sure that that relationship 74 00:03:46,188 --> 00:03:48,348 Speaker 1: doesn't become toxic and it doesn't become something where he's 75 00:03:48,348 --> 00:03:50,748 Speaker 1: distracting Drew Locke. But I think when you look at 76 00:03:50,748 --> 00:03:52,628 Speaker 1: what Drew Locke does best, and when you look at 77 00:03:52,628 --> 00:03:54,788 Speaker 1: how they want to attack down the field, look with 78 00:03:54,828 --> 00:03:58,148 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett and DK, Metcalf. This is a very good tanum. 79 00:03:58,188 --> 00:04:00,668 Speaker 1: This is a scary tanum. If you're a secondary, you 80 00:04:00,748 --> 00:04:03,868 Speaker 1: take DK Metcalf out of the equation. This office doesn't 81 00:04:03,908 --> 00:04:05,988 Speaker 1: have the same kind of teeth, So find a way 82 00:04:06,028 --> 00:04:07,868 Speaker 1: to get DK Metcalf in the building. We know he 83 00:04:07,908 --> 00:04:10,308 Speaker 1: doesn't really eat food during the day, So give him 84 00:04:10,348 --> 00:04:12,708 Speaker 1: a bag of candy, whatever it takes, and a cup 85 00:04:12,708 --> 00:04:14,748 Speaker 1: of coffee and get him to eight o'clock and then 86 00:04:14,788 --> 00:04:18,508 Speaker 1: he'll be happy. The other thing I love about doing 87 00:04:18,548 --> 00:04:21,308 Speaker 1: this show is that I don't have to be a 88 00:04:21,388 --> 00:04:24,228 Speaker 1: newsman for this portion of it. At the very least, 89 00:04:24,668 --> 00:04:29,668 Speaker 1: I would think that they should consider trading him. Get 90 00:04:29,708 --> 00:04:32,308 Speaker 1: a draft pick. Why you can? Why not get a 91 00:04:32,348 --> 00:04:36,668 Speaker 1: first round pick? Right now? They are stockpiling the draft 92 00:04:36,668 --> 00:04:41,148 Speaker 1: picks for the twenty twenty three draft. They have five 93 00:04:41,868 --> 00:04:46,468 Speaker 1: potential draft picks staring them in the face. Currently they've 94 00:04:46,468 --> 00:04:48,908 Speaker 1: got four, two in the first, two in the second. 95 00:04:49,188 --> 00:04:52,508 Speaker 1: Why not make it five. The QB class is going 96 00:04:52,548 --> 00:04:56,548 Speaker 1: to be loaded. Get a franchise QB. Some wide receivers. 97 00:04:56,708 --> 00:05:00,068 Speaker 1: We've seen a bunch of these whiteouts make an immediate impact. 98 00:05:00,388 --> 00:05:03,868 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Jalen Whide'll just name a few, 99 00:05:04,428 --> 00:05:08,668 Speaker 1: and we've seen good teams know when to draw the line, guys. 100 00:05:09,028 --> 00:05:12,028 Speaker 1: We saw that in Kansas City with Tyree Hill. We 101 00:05:12,068 --> 00:05:15,468 Speaker 1: saw that in Green Bay with Davante Adams as well. 102 00:05:15,748 --> 00:05:19,268 Speaker 1: The difference with those situations and the situation that we're 103 00:05:19,268 --> 00:05:22,388 Speaker 1: talking about in Seattle is that they have their franchise 104 00:05:22,468 --> 00:05:26,908 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers. I know they've 105 00:05:26,908 --> 00:05:30,468 Speaker 1: got Drew locked there, but it's clear looking at what 106 00:05:30,508 --> 00:05:33,148 Speaker 1: they did in this year's draft, they're looking to go 107 00:05:33,308 --> 00:05:37,188 Speaker 1: run heavy here. They were drafting offensive linemen, running backs. 108 00:05:37,348 --> 00:05:39,668 Speaker 1: They want to go back to the Beasts mode days. 109 00:05:39,948 --> 00:05:43,028 Speaker 1: They're not going to contend this year. They aren't unless 110 00:05:43,028 --> 00:05:45,948 Speaker 1: they get a true signal caller in there. No offense 111 00:05:45,988 --> 00:05:48,988 Speaker 1: to Drew Locke, but nothing is happening with Baker Mayfield. 112 00:05:49,308 --> 00:05:52,148 Speaker 1: And if you get to that point, then maybe Taylor 113 00:05:52,188 --> 00:05:54,788 Speaker 1: Lockett is out the door as well. Tyler Lockett out there, 114 00:05:54,828 --> 00:05:57,428 Speaker 1: a little bit older, a little bit more expensive. That's 115 00:05:57,468 --> 00:06:00,308 Speaker 1: what I think. Go for those draft picks. Why not. 116 00:06:00,668 --> 00:06:02,708 Speaker 1: I can't believe they're going on the season with Drew Locket. 117 00:06:02,828 --> 00:06:04,588 Speaker 1: I'm not going to even say no offense, none of 118 00:06:04,668 --> 00:06:06,628 Speaker 1: us can believe it. John, you're sitting here saying, well, 119 00:06:06,788 --> 00:06:08,868 Speaker 1: the things that Drew Locke does well, I don't know 120 00:06:08,908 --> 00:06:10,468 Speaker 1: what Drew lock does well. I'd have to pull up 121 00:06:10,508 --> 00:06:13,188 Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah's the draft notes from four years ago. I 122 00:06:13,188 --> 00:06:16,148 Speaker 1: don't know. Apparently the Seattle does. So they said, no, 123 00:06:16,228 --> 00:06:18,268 Speaker 1: we're good. We're gonna go to battle and here's what're 124 00:06:18,268 --> 00:06:21,348 Speaker 1: gonna We're gonna beat the Rams and the Niners and 125 00:06:21,388 --> 00:06:23,268 Speaker 1: the Cardinals and this is gonna be our team. That 126 00:06:23,508 --> 00:06:26,028 Speaker 1: it is. If you're doing a thing and I respect it, 127 00:06:26,068 --> 00:06:29,228 Speaker 1: where you're like, let's build towards the future. Okay, then 128 00:06:29,268 --> 00:06:30,988 Speaker 1: build towards the future. Pick up the phone, makes some 129 00:06:31,028 --> 00:06:33,828 Speaker 1: calls about DK. You guys want DK because Peter you said, 130 00:06:33,828 --> 00:06:37,388 Speaker 1: he's a superstar. He's very famous, and he's very cool, 131 00:06:37,508 --> 00:06:38,908 Speaker 1: and he has a lot of muscles and he has 132 00:06:38,948 --> 00:06:40,908 Speaker 1: some pretty good numbers. But like, I don't find a 133 00:06:40,948 --> 00:06:44,668 Speaker 1: superstar wide receiver as year after year, no matter who's 134 00:06:44,668 --> 00:06:47,028 Speaker 1: playing quarterback, no matter who the coaches, that is our 135 00:06:47,068 --> 00:06:49,868 Speaker 1: guy that has given us a thousand yards every year. 136 00:06:50,028 --> 00:06:51,708 Speaker 1: He is going to be running the route at twelve 137 00:06:51,788 --> 00:06:53,388 Speaker 1: yards on third and eleven. He's going to be a 138 00:06:53,428 --> 00:06:55,908 Speaker 1: guy on the sideline. We can count on the combustibility 139 00:06:55,908 --> 00:06:57,708 Speaker 1: of DK metcalf. I think it is fair to talk 140 00:06:57,748 --> 00:07:00,268 Speaker 1: about if you are losing your mind with Russell Wilson 141 00:07:00,268 --> 00:07:02,308 Speaker 1: in a playoff game, what are you going to do 142 00:07:02,348 --> 00:07:04,308 Speaker 1: with Drew Locke when you're owing three and you guys 143 00:07:04,388 --> 00:07:06,468 Speaker 1: are running the ball and you don't have your numbers 144 00:07:06,508 --> 00:07:08,188 Speaker 1: yet and you're trying to get your contract. I think 145 00:07:08,228 --> 00:07:11,108 Speaker 1: that's really justifiable. And as far as the idea you 146 00:07:11,148 --> 00:07:13,508 Speaker 1: can't let someone out of the building that good, I 147 00:07:13,508 --> 00:07:15,428 Speaker 1: don't know. The Titans did it with their wide receiver 148 00:07:15,588 --> 00:07:17,508 Speaker 1: and they got a whole bunch of draft picks, They 149 00:07:17,508 --> 00:07:19,828 Speaker 1: got a first rounder, and they seem, yeah, you know, 150 00:07:19,868 --> 00:07:23,108 Speaker 1: we love AJ is great. We're building another direction. We 151 00:07:23,148 --> 00:07:26,108 Speaker 1: don't want to spend everything we have on a wide 152 00:07:26,148 --> 00:07:28,588 Speaker 1: receiver who we still have some doubts about. So look, 153 00:07:28,708 --> 00:07:30,548 Speaker 1: I'm not saying right now, trade and get rid of them. 154 00:07:30,588 --> 00:07:33,388 Speaker 1: I like DK, you make some calls, Peter right, yeah, 155 00:07:33,428 --> 00:07:36,068 Speaker 1: and look. John Schneider, the general manager, was interviewed by 156 00:07:36,108 --> 00:07:39,108 Speaker 1: Thomas Dimitroff on his podcast Former Falcons GM, and he 157 00:07:39,108 --> 00:07:42,068 Speaker 1: said he regrets the Jamal Adams trade. Doing all that 158 00:07:42,108 --> 00:07:44,708 Speaker 1: for one player. What does that apply to Dk? Now, look, 159 00:07:44,748 --> 00:07:46,828 Speaker 1: there's three names that are being tossed around right now 160 00:07:46,828 --> 00:07:49,228 Speaker 1: as guys who are entering this final year their rookie 161 00:07:49,268 --> 00:07:52,948 Speaker 1: contract or want to be paid. It's Dk Metcalf, Deebo Samuel, 162 00:07:53,028 --> 00:07:55,588 Speaker 1: and it's Terry McLaurin. I think of those three, I 163 00:07:55,668 --> 00:07:58,428 Speaker 1: know San Francisco doesn't want to trade Debo whatsoever. And 164 00:07:58,468 --> 00:08:01,148 Speaker 1: I know that Washington looks at McLaurin not only as 165 00:08:01,828 --> 00:08:03,588 Speaker 1: the number one wide receiver, but he worth the sea 166 00:08:03,628 --> 00:08:06,268 Speaker 1: on the jersey. TK Metcalf is an interesting one, Kyle, 167 00:08:06,308 --> 00:08:09,068 Speaker 1: And to her point, without Russell Wilson, are we so 168 00:08:09,148 --> 00:08:12,428 Speaker 1: sure he is a superstar? That said you gotta field 169 00:08:12,468 --> 00:08:14,708 Speaker 1: the team and this guy is a bonafid talent at 170 00:08:14,708 --> 00:08:17,348 Speaker 1: a low cost a second round pick, Get the most 171 00:08:17,388 --> 00:08:19,708 Speaker 1: out of him this year, and then figure out if 172 00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:21,028 Speaker 1: you want to give him the mega deal or not. 173 00:08:21,268 --> 00:08:24,508 Speaker 1: I can't imagine them trading Dk Metcalf after the draft. 174 00:08:24,708 --> 00:08:26,788 Speaker 1: I hear you, Peter, But what I can imagine you 175 00:08:26,948 --> 00:08:29,268 Speaker 1: doing is spending your free time listening to the Thomas 176 00:08:29,308 --> 00:08:32,508 Speaker 1: de Mitroff podcast, which I heard is great. Good call peace, 177 00:08:32,628 --> 00:08:34,948 Speaker 1: Rags and we'll flight home. From my love content. We're 178 00:08:34,948 --> 00:08:38,268 Speaker 1: talking all this Seahawks stuff. Their old quarterback now is 179 00:08:38,268 --> 00:08:40,908 Speaker 1: a voice in Denver. Do they have any news going on? Yeah, 180 00:08:40,948 --> 00:08:45,428 Speaker 1: actually they do. The Broncos and the Walton Pennerer family 181 00:08:45,588 --> 00:08:49,948 Speaker 1: have actually entered into Kyle a purchase and sale agreement 182 00:08:49,988 --> 00:08:53,428 Speaker 1: to acquire the team from the Pat Bowland Trust. Now, 183 00:08:53,828 --> 00:08:57,588 Speaker 1: the agreement is subject to approval from the NFL's Finance 184 00:08:57,628 --> 00:09:01,428 Speaker 1: Committee and league ownership, as well as a satisfaction of 185 00:09:01,548 --> 00:09:06,548 Speaker 1: customary closing procedures. Now, according to our very own James Palmer, 186 00:09:06,868 --> 00:09:10,748 Speaker 1: the winning bid was a four point six five billion 187 00:09:10,828 --> 00:09:14,388 Speaker 1: dollars bid. That's more than double the sale of the 188 00:09:14,428 --> 00:09:19,348 Speaker 1: Panthers just four years ago. Now, Broncos President and CEO 189 00:09:19,588 --> 00:09:22,828 Speaker 1: Joe ellis issuing this statement in part quote, I have 190 00:09:23,068 --> 00:09:26,348 Speaker 1: enjoyed getting to know Rob Walden, Kerry Waldon Penner, and 191 00:09:26,628 --> 00:09:31,628 Speaker 1: Greg Penner throughout this process, learning more about their background 192 00:09:31,708 --> 00:09:34,868 Speaker 1: and vision for the Denver Broncos. I am confident that 193 00:09:34,948 --> 00:09:38,548 Speaker 1: their leadership and support will help this team achieve great 194 00:09:38,588 --> 00:09:41,708 Speaker 1: things on and off the field. And you talk about 195 00:09:41,708 --> 00:09:45,948 Speaker 1: the Broncos being crown jewel, they go into an excellent situation. 196 00:09:46,468 --> 00:09:48,988 Speaker 1: You know what you love it whiteboard Wednesday. It is 197 00:09:49,028 --> 00:09:51,028 Speaker 1: a staple of this here program. If you want to 198 00:09:51,028 --> 00:09:56,308 Speaker 1: follow along, tweet us your answers at gmmb Okay, So 199 00:09:56,548 --> 00:10:01,428 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones saying that Darius Tony is a special player 200 00:10:01,628 --> 00:10:06,308 Speaker 1: who brings a special element, lots of specialness there. That 201 00:10:06,348 --> 00:10:10,228 Speaker 1: begs the question, the most special player in the NFL 202 00:10:10,428 --> 00:10:13,988 Speaker 1: right now is who? Shrigs all right, how do you 203 00:10:13,988 --> 00:10:16,828 Speaker 1: define special? Is it like playmaking ability? Is it? I 204 00:10:16,788 --> 00:10:18,748 Speaker 1: have to say, it's who's one of one, who's like 205 00:10:19,108 --> 00:10:21,508 Speaker 1: the only guy who could do what he's doing. And 206 00:10:21,548 --> 00:10:24,188 Speaker 1: it's boring, but it's this guy. He's forty four years old, 207 00:10:24,188 --> 00:10:27,068 Speaker 1: He's still playing quarterback at a high level. Brady's one 208 00:10:27,108 --> 00:10:29,068 Speaker 1: on one. He's the most special player not only in 209 00:10:29,108 --> 00:10:31,908 Speaker 1: the game today but in the NFL's history. And we 210 00:10:31,948 --> 00:10:33,788 Speaker 1: take it for granted. We get tired of it. It 211 00:10:33,828 --> 00:10:36,068 Speaker 1: becomes trite. We're like, can we start talking about some 212 00:10:36,068 --> 00:10:38,068 Speaker 1: of the other quarterbacks? He start doing flips to talk 213 00:10:38,108 --> 00:10:43,948 Speaker 1: about Jamis and Sam Darnold and guys, it's Brady. He's 214 00:10:43,988 --> 00:10:46,468 Speaker 1: the most unique, one of one player in NFL history. 215 00:10:46,748 --> 00:10:49,148 Speaker 1: Sorry I hated me so boring, but this is the answer. 216 00:10:49,788 --> 00:10:52,588 Speaker 1: Come off here, Shigs, you're not boring, but I'm gonna 217 00:10:52,628 --> 00:10:54,868 Speaker 1: go is Tom's middle nine. Patrick, I'm gonna go with 218 00:10:54,948 --> 00:10:58,268 Speaker 1: a different Patrick. Give me MAHOMESO. This is clearly a 219 00:10:58,348 --> 00:11:00,788 Speaker 1: quarterback segment now here as we go back to back. 220 00:11:01,348 --> 00:11:04,628 Speaker 1: But when I look at Patrick Mahomes, I feel like 221 00:11:04,708 --> 00:11:08,508 Speaker 1: every single week he's inventing new throws. Look. A couple 222 00:11:08,548 --> 00:11:10,828 Speaker 1: of years ago, we celebrated one hundred years in the NFL, 223 00:11:11,348 --> 00:11:14,988 Speaker 1: and yet Patrick Mahomes is still finding ways to wow 224 00:11:15,148 --> 00:11:19,028 Speaker 1: fans with the no look passes, with the different sidearm deliveries. 225 00:11:19,668 --> 00:11:21,268 Speaker 1: I think when you go back and you look at 226 00:11:21,988 --> 00:11:24,708 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills Chiefs game, when you go back and 227 00:11:24,788 --> 00:11:26,948 Speaker 1: you look at what he did with thirteen seconds, let's 228 00:11:27,068 --> 00:11:29,228 Speaker 1: go no. Nobody thought they would be able to pull 229 00:11:29,268 --> 00:11:31,628 Speaker 1: that victory out, and yet Mahomes pulled the rabbit out 230 00:11:31,628 --> 00:11:34,988 Speaker 1: of the hat. That's special. And when you play Mattrick 231 00:11:34,988 --> 00:11:37,748 Speaker 1: Mahomes defensively, you know, like, look, we could draw up 232 00:11:37,748 --> 00:11:40,668 Speaker 1: the perfect scheme, the perfect defense, the perfect blitz, and 233 00:11:40,708 --> 00:11:42,948 Speaker 1: he still has an answer. It's Sean, the guy that 234 00:11:42,988 --> 00:11:46,068 Speaker 1: you're talking about, just took a big l to Joe Burrow. 235 00:11:46,228 --> 00:11:48,428 Speaker 1: And I'm sitting here reflecting now in June. It's been 236 00:11:48,428 --> 00:11:51,428 Speaker 1: about five months since that happened. Did Joe Burrow really 237 00:11:51,468 --> 00:11:54,188 Speaker 1: take the Bengals to the bleep on Super Bowl? And 238 00:11:54,228 --> 00:11:56,108 Speaker 1: did he do it in his second year? And did 239 00:11:56,108 --> 00:11:58,508 Speaker 1: he do it after a massive knee injury? Did that happen? 240 00:11:58,788 --> 00:12:00,428 Speaker 1: I still feel like I'm gonna wake up and be like, 241 00:12:00,468 --> 00:12:03,068 Speaker 1: oh no, the Bengals thing didn't work out and Burrow 242 00:12:03,188 --> 00:12:05,948 Speaker 1: just didn't have it really did and he did it 243 00:12:05,988 --> 00:12:10,348 Speaker 1: with this bizarre, magical on and off the field aura 244 00:12:10,388 --> 00:12:13,828 Speaker 1: where he was just so unflappable and so unshakable until 245 00:12:13,868 --> 00:12:17,348 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald almost cracked him in half. But still, Joe Burrow, guys, 246 00:12:17,348 --> 00:12:18,868 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's the best quarterback. I don't 247 00:12:18,908 --> 00:12:20,628 Speaker 1: rank him in the top three, top five. I don't care. 248 00:12:21,028 --> 00:12:23,668 Speaker 1: I think he's special. That's an unbelievably special thing he 249 00:12:23,708 --> 00:12:26,548 Speaker 1: just did. I had me a third right now in 250 00:12:26,588 --> 00:12:28,908 Speaker 1: the boring rankings of answers. But wait till my answer 251 00:12:28,948 --> 00:12:34,868 Speaker 1: to the second question. Go ahead, will Yesterday we had 252 00:12:35,068 --> 00:12:37,628 Speaker 1: the great Tory hold on Friend of the Show. We 253 00:12:37,748 --> 00:12:40,468 Speaker 1: know with Isaac Bruce he created one of the best 254 00:12:40,668 --> 00:12:44,708 Speaker 1: wide receiver duos this league has ever seen, So thanks 255 00:12:44,708 --> 00:12:48,148 Speaker 1: the question. The best number two wide receiver in the 256 00:12:48,428 --> 00:12:52,388 Speaker 1: NFL right now is whom shreds. Let's just say the 257 00:12:52,508 --> 00:12:55,628 Speaker 1: Rams all give me some sizzle with putting together new 258 00:12:55,708 --> 00:13:00,428 Speaker 1: contracts for star players. Aaron Donald got his Cooper Cups next, 259 00:13:00,468 --> 00:13:02,788 Speaker 1: and let's just say it might happen sooner rather than later. 260 00:13:02,828 --> 00:13:04,908 Speaker 1: And I think his number two is going to be 261 00:13:05,108 --> 00:13:08,588 Speaker 1: a sensation. Alan Robinson finally had back in this league, 262 00:13:08,708 --> 00:13:11,428 Speaker 1: and he's got a play caller in Sean McVay and 263 00:13:11,508 --> 00:13:13,668 Speaker 1: Liam Cohen that are gonna be dialing this up. I 264 00:13:13,708 --> 00:13:15,788 Speaker 1: can't wait for a rob I'll tell you this. They 265 00:13:15,788 --> 00:13:17,988 Speaker 1: were all talking at this wedding this weekend and it 266 00:13:18,068 --> 00:13:19,748 Speaker 1: was about all the players and how excite they were. 267 00:13:20,228 --> 00:13:22,828 Speaker 1: The name that kept coming up was Alan Robinson and 268 00:13:22,868 --> 00:13:25,308 Speaker 1: what he will do for this offense. Is Odell gonna 269 00:13:25,348 --> 00:13:27,868 Speaker 1: be there? The hope is yes, is Van Jefferson going 270 00:13:27,948 --> 00:13:31,708 Speaker 1: to be there? Yes, that's four wide receivers cup again, 271 00:13:32,068 --> 00:13:36,348 Speaker 1: if you're following your NFL news today, tomorrow, soon he's 272 00:13:36,348 --> 00:13:39,268 Speaker 1: gonna get his and then Alan Robinson is going to 273 00:13:39,348 --> 00:13:42,068 Speaker 1: have the stats this year as well. He's my number two. 274 00:13:42,108 --> 00:13:44,148 Speaker 1: I love this duo and they go four deep. I 275 00:13:44,188 --> 00:13:48,148 Speaker 1: can't wait for the Rams offense this season. Look, stop 276 00:13:48,308 --> 00:13:50,828 Speaker 1: stop saying this segment is boring. Look, we're talking about 277 00:13:50,828 --> 00:13:53,948 Speaker 1: the best number two's in the NFL, and Shriggs leads 278 00:13:53,988 --> 00:13:55,948 Speaker 1: off with I'm gonna drop an easter rate. So listen, 279 00:13:55,988 --> 00:13:59,228 Speaker 1: I'm gonna carry out that same theme right here. Who 280 00:13:59,268 --> 00:14:01,948 Speaker 1: does number two work for? Right here? Tyler Lockett. Listen, 281 00:14:01,988 --> 00:14:05,188 Speaker 1: we just got done talking about their number one possibly 282 00:14:05,188 --> 00:14:08,108 Speaker 1: for now in DK Metcalf. Give me Tyler Lockett all 283 00:14:08,188 --> 00:14:11,508 Speaker 1: day long, every single week last season, the year before, 284 00:14:11,628 --> 00:14:14,388 Speaker 1: the last three years, it seems like anytime Seattle needs 285 00:14:14,388 --> 00:14:16,388 Speaker 1: a big play, who did Russell Wilson go to? It 286 00:14:16,468 --> 00:14:20,108 Speaker 1: was Tyler Lockett. Look now it's locked to Locket, as 287 00:14:20,108 --> 00:14:23,508 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks fans hope to find out this season. But 288 00:14:23,588 --> 00:14:25,388 Speaker 1: when you look at Tyler Lockett, there isn't anything he 289 00:14:25,388 --> 00:14:27,028 Speaker 1: can't do. He could play outside, he could play in 290 00:14:27,068 --> 00:14:29,668 Speaker 1: the slot. Look, he can he can run deep. He's 291 00:14:29,668 --> 00:14:32,188 Speaker 1: got the shallow crosses. I think when you look at 292 00:14:32,228 --> 00:14:34,828 Speaker 1: the production of Tyler Lockett as yeah, everybody would probably 293 00:14:34,868 --> 00:14:36,868 Speaker 1: look at the Seattle and say DK's number one. Locketts 294 00:14:36,908 --> 00:14:39,268 Speaker 1: number two. He's actually got more catches and more yards 295 00:14:39,268 --> 00:14:41,908 Speaker 1: in the last three years then DK. So sure DC's 296 00:14:41,948 --> 00:14:44,788 Speaker 1: missed some time. But Tyler Lockett, look, I think he's 297 00:14:44,788 --> 00:14:46,988 Speaker 1: the best number two in the NFL. You could very 298 00:14:46,988 --> 00:14:49,428 Speaker 1: well argue he's at number one. So Peter went Allen 299 00:14:49,508 --> 00:14:51,868 Speaker 1: Robinson tried to give a little spice with some news. 300 00:14:51,908 --> 00:14:55,828 Speaker 1: I respect it. Sean did your garden variety, Tyler Lockett 301 00:14:55,868 --> 00:14:57,828 Speaker 1: is underrated and put in some nice word play in 302 00:14:57,868 --> 00:15:00,788 Speaker 1: some bathroom humor. I'm gonna really spice things up, guys. 303 00:15:01,028 --> 00:15:04,148 Speaker 1: Chris Godwin, yep, I really like him. The question was 304 00:15:04,588 --> 00:15:07,188 Speaker 1: number two wide receiver. It's Chris Godwin. I'll even spice 305 00:15:07,228 --> 00:15:09,468 Speaker 1: this segment up. I give it a player who's injured, 306 00:15:09,628 --> 00:15:12,388 Speaker 1: and I don't care. He's the number two to Mike Evans. 307 00:15:12,388 --> 00:15:15,108 Speaker 1: Sometimes he looks like the number one. I like his personalities. 308 00:15:15,148 --> 00:15:17,948 Speaker 1: He tells funny stories about standing right next to Jamis 309 00:15:17,948 --> 00:15:20,148 Speaker 1: when Jamis eight the w on the field before the game, 310 00:15:20,148 --> 00:15:21,948 Speaker 1: and he said he knew they were gonna lose. He's 311 00:15:21,988 --> 00:15:25,388 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl champion. He's really good, and I think 312 00:15:25,388 --> 00:15:27,788 Speaker 1: he's not quite as good as Mike Evans, but it 313 00:15:27,868 --> 00:15:29,668 Speaker 1: makes him really big place. And this is how to 314 00:15:29,708 --> 00:15:33,868 Speaker 1: answer the best number two receiver question? Will Chris Godwin yep? 315 00:15:36,228 --> 00:15:41,228 Speaker 1: That has been whiteboard Wednesday? Either way? Coming up? How 316 00:15:41,268 --> 00:15:45,148 Speaker 1: will Aaron Rodgers there with no DeVante Hadden's aid, Cream 317 00:15:45,228 --> 00:15:49,588 Speaker 1: Bay Plus? Is Deebo Samuel the biggest X factor for 318 00:15:49,668 --> 00:15:52,548 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers this season? We'll discuss that and 319 00:15:52,788 --> 00:16:10,908 Speaker 1: more later. I'm corning let's go to Green Bay, Wisconsin 320 00:16:11,228 --> 00:16:13,948 Speaker 1: Packers open them again. Latman is there? Not last year? 321 00:16:13,948 --> 00:16:16,388 Speaker 1: It's got that same soft chin, strap, buckle to the side, 322 00:16:16,428 --> 00:16:19,908 Speaker 1: the same long hair. According to Tom Pellicero, Alan Lazard, 323 00:16:20,228 --> 00:16:22,548 Speaker 1: his wide receiver was absent though, because he's looking for 324 00:16:22,588 --> 00:16:24,268 Speaker 1: a long term deal. How about that. I'm going to 325 00:16:24,388 --> 00:16:27,188 Speaker 1: keep you updated on that story. But that guy was 326 00:16:27,228 --> 00:16:30,868 Speaker 1: there two straight MVPs for a total. He told reporters 327 00:16:31,108 --> 00:16:34,188 Speaker 1: he definitely wants to retire a Packer, and he opened 328 00:16:34,268 --> 00:16:37,828 Speaker 1: up about the loss of Davanta Adams and what does 329 00:16:37,868 --> 00:16:40,068 Speaker 1: that mean for Green Bay this season? And how's the 330 00:16:40,068 --> 00:16:44,308 Speaker 1: offense gonna look. I love Davanta, so you know, I 331 00:16:44,348 --> 00:16:47,148 Speaker 1: was I was obviously disappointed, but I'm not going to 332 00:16:47,188 --> 00:16:49,508 Speaker 1: stand in his way, you know, as he pursues the 333 00:16:49,548 --> 00:16:52,308 Speaker 1: next step in his career. I love him like a brother, 334 00:16:52,348 --> 00:16:56,868 Speaker 1: and I appreciate everything that we accomplished together. Disappointed we 335 00:16:56,868 --> 00:17:00,588 Speaker 1: couldn't finish together, but zero, absolutely zero animosity, nothing but 336 00:17:00,708 --> 00:17:02,668 Speaker 1: love for him. But yeah, the offense has a change. 337 00:17:02,668 --> 00:17:04,188 Speaker 1: I mean last year. You know, when you have a 338 00:17:04,188 --> 00:17:07,908 Speaker 1: guy who's that talented, it's probably not an exaggeration to 339 00:17:07,948 --> 00:17:10,268 Speaker 1: say to eighty percent the plays in the passing game 340 00:17:11,028 --> 00:17:14,188 Speaker 1: we're designed specifically for seventeen, so we're obviously gonna do 341 00:17:14,188 --> 00:17:17,908 Speaker 1: some things a little differently. Eighty percent of the passing 342 00:17:17,948 --> 00:17:21,028 Speaker 1: plays we're designed for seventeen seventeen is not catching passers 343 00:17:21,028 --> 00:17:23,668 Speaker 1: from Derek Carr. So we still got Super Bowls to 344 00:17:23,708 --> 00:17:25,068 Speaker 1: win though. For the Packers, right, how are we going 345 00:17:25,108 --> 00:17:27,308 Speaker 1: to go about doing business? We've talked about it for months, 346 00:17:27,348 --> 00:17:28,988 Speaker 1: then we just heard it from Rogers. Things are going 347 00:17:29,028 --> 00:17:31,228 Speaker 1: to be different. Can the offense be as good? Can 348 00:17:31,268 --> 00:17:33,748 Speaker 1: they reform this thing? Can they still be humming up 349 00:17:33,748 --> 00:17:36,428 Speaker 1: and down the field at an MVP level? For the quarterback? Sean, 350 00:17:36,668 --> 00:17:38,908 Speaker 1: what do you think this is the rule of eighty twenty? Right? 351 00:17:39,388 --> 00:17:42,228 Speaker 1: I don't understand how we can seriously have this conversation 352 00:17:42,308 --> 00:17:44,908 Speaker 1: when Aaron Rodgers just talked about the offense being focused 353 00:17:44,948 --> 00:17:47,428 Speaker 1: on DeVante Adams. Look, I'm supposed to stand here and 354 00:17:47,468 --> 00:17:49,748 Speaker 1: tell Packers fans that, yeah, sure, you guys are gonna 355 00:17:49,748 --> 00:17:52,028 Speaker 1: be fine. You're gonna be just as good, No big deal. 356 00:17:52,068 --> 00:17:54,348 Speaker 1: Plug in Christian Watson. There you go. You'll find a 357 00:17:54,388 --> 00:17:57,348 Speaker 1: way to create that production. Na I don't know. I mean, look, 358 00:17:57,388 --> 00:17:59,788 Speaker 1: they were calling last season the last Dance, So I'm 359 00:17:59,788 --> 00:18:02,228 Speaker 1: gonna use a Bulls reference here. If you took Jordan 360 00:18:02,308 --> 00:18:05,188 Speaker 1: and Pippin, right, if you took Pippin out of the equation, 361 00:18:05,308 --> 00:18:07,828 Speaker 1: would Jordan's still have all those rings? I think he'd 362 00:18:07,868 --> 00:18:09,348 Speaker 1: be in the finals. But I don't know. I mean, 363 00:18:09,508 --> 00:18:12,348 Speaker 1: when you look at that relationship and their ability to 364 00:18:12,468 --> 00:18:15,668 Speaker 1: score points, Pippin and Jordan I'm talking about, it reminds 365 00:18:15,708 --> 00:18:18,588 Speaker 1: me a lot of Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers. When 366 00:18:18,628 --> 00:18:21,108 Speaker 1: you look at the last five seasons what they've done 367 00:18:21,148 --> 00:18:26,428 Speaker 1: together in the red zone. Fifty touchdowns in the red zone. Yeah, 368 00:18:26,468 --> 00:18:28,828 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how you replace all of that, 369 00:18:28,908 --> 00:18:30,348 Speaker 1: And that's really going to be the question. I think 370 00:18:30,388 --> 00:18:32,188 Speaker 1: the GREENBA Packers of the team are gonna be better, 371 00:18:32,348 --> 00:18:35,068 Speaker 1: but offensively, I don't see them scoring as many points 372 00:18:35,108 --> 00:18:37,708 Speaker 1: as they have with Davante Adam until somebody else emerges 373 00:18:37,988 --> 00:18:42,828 Speaker 1: as that next guy. All right, So for me, I 374 00:18:42,868 --> 00:18:45,228 Speaker 1: think it is going to be hard to deal with 375 00:18:45,268 --> 00:18:48,828 Speaker 1: the loss of Davante Adams. Obviously, he is a singular talent. 376 00:18:48,868 --> 00:18:51,148 Speaker 1: They are going to miss him in the red zone. 377 00:18:51,428 --> 00:18:53,708 Speaker 1: But I'll say this, if you look at the Cardinals 378 00:18:53,788 --> 00:18:57,308 Speaker 1: game that they played against them in Week eight. In 379 00:18:57,428 --> 00:19:00,748 Speaker 1: that game, you look at the numbers, they weren't pretty whatsoever, 380 00:19:00,908 --> 00:19:03,268 Speaker 1: but they got the job done because they were spreading 381 00:19:03,308 --> 00:19:05,548 Speaker 1: the ball around and they were running the ball. It 382 00:19:05,588 --> 00:19:08,828 Speaker 1: also helps that they have a really good defense. In fact, 383 00:19:08,908 --> 00:19:13,108 Speaker 1: it's a top ten defense. They have studs all over 384 00:19:13,308 --> 00:19:16,188 Speaker 1: that side of the ball, two of them in the 385 00:19:16,188 --> 00:19:19,948 Speaker 1: middle in the form of linebackers in Rashaan Gary and 386 00:19:20,108 --> 00:19:25,388 Speaker 1: Preston Smith. Okay, those guys nine plus sacks each. Now 387 00:19:25,428 --> 00:19:28,628 Speaker 1: look at the defensive rankings here the numbers ninth in 388 00:19:28,708 --> 00:19:34,468 Speaker 1: total yards per game allowed, tenth passing yards per game allowed. 389 00:19:34,748 --> 00:19:36,748 Speaker 1: If you're an offense and you know you have this 390 00:19:36,828 --> 00:19:39,948 Speaker 1: kind of defense, if they could be opportunistic, you know 391 00:19:40,068 --> 00:19:42,748 Speaker 1: that they will keep you in games. And oh yeah, 392 00:19:42,748 --> 00:19:46,108 Speaker 1: they've got a great cornerback and Jaire Alexander as well. 393 00:19:46,468 --> 00:19:49,068 Speaker 1: So they've got the guys on that side of the 394 00:19:49,108 --> 00:19:52,188 Speaker 1: ball to make an impact to help out this offense. 395 00:19:52,548 --> 00:19:56,148 Speaker 1: And Peter at this point in time, really hard to 396 00:19:56,148 --> 00:19:59,628 Speaker 1: replace the guy like Davante Adams and his production. But 397 00:19:59,988 --> 00:20:02,588 Speaker 1: they are going to have to balance things out with 398 00:20:02,708 --> 00:20:05,988 Speaker 1: getting other guys the ball, running the ball more. And yes, 399 00:20:06,068 --> 00:20:09,788 Speaker 1: we're relying on that defense even more. Yeah, it is hard. 400 00:20:09,948 --> 00:20:12,268 Speaker 1: He's the best wide receiver. It's either him or Cooper 401 00:20:12,308 --> 00:20:14,428 Speaker 1: Cup in the league and maybe Jamar Chase in that conversation, 402 00:20:14,508 --> 00:20:16,388 Speaker 1: and we could debate that for three hours on another 403 00:20:16,668 --> 00:20:20,268 Speaker 1: offseason show. But like, that's really hard to replace. They've 404 00:20:20,348 --> 00:20:24,148 Speaker 1: won games without Davante Adams though in the last three seasons. 405 00:20:24,148 --> 00:20:26,908 Speaker 1: They're seven and old. Like they found a way. It's 406 00:20:26,948 --> 00:20:28,628 Speaker 1: not like they found away once or twice. They found 407 00:20:28,628 --> 00:20:32,748 Speaker 1: a way seven times. Rogers is really good and he's 408 00:20:32,908 --> 00:20:35,908 Speaker 1: really resourceful. And I also think it's important to note 409 00:20:35,988 --> 00:20:38,668 Speaker 1: that they're getting back one of their best players. David 410 00:20:38,668 --> 00:20:41,348 Speaker 1: Bactieri might be the best left tackle in all of football. 411 00:20:41,388 --> 00:20:43,068 Speaker 1: Take a look at what he did last year. He 412 00:20:43,188 --> 00:20:46,828 Speaker 1: missed seventeen games, he only played in one. They are 413 00:20:46,868 --> 00:20:50,708 Speaker 1: also going to get two really really talented first round 414 00:20:50,708 --> 00:20:52,948 Speaker 1: picks on defense added to that unit that you were 415 00:20:52,988 --> 00:20:55,788 Speaker 1: just talking about Will. I think Wyatt and Walker are 416 00:20:55,788 --> 00:20:59,068 Speaker 1: a fantastic duo. You look at what Joe Barry's defense 417 00:20:59,108 --> 00:21:01,428 Speaker 1: did last year. You showed the numbers. Will They carried 418 00:21:01,428 --> 00:21:03,468 Speaker 1: the load in a lot of ways in big moments. 419 00:21:03,508 --> 00:21:06,388 Speaker 1: They're gonna have to do even more. But Walker and 420 00:21:06,508 --> 00:21:08,988 Speaker 1: Wyatt are both going to play a role in year 421 00:21:09,068 --> 00:21:11,588 Speaker 1: one for them. And my last point is just like 422 00:21:12,108 --> 00:21:15,068 Speaker 1: you don't need Christian Watson or Romeo Dubs to be 423 00:21:16,028 --> 00:21:18,388 Speaker 1: DeVante Adams. You don't. You've got to be able to 424 00:21:18,428 --> 00:21:20,508 Speaker 1: be able to adjust, and you've got to be able 425 00:21:20,548 --> 00:21:22,948 Speaker 1: to use that offense in a way that maybe we 426 00:21:22,988 --> 00:21:24,908 Speaker 1: do rely on the run game and it is AJ 427 00:21:25,108 --> 00:21:27,308 Speaker 1: Dillon and it's Aaron Jones, and maybe it's a lot 428 00:21:27,308 --> 00:21:31,308 Speaker 1: more Robert Tonyan Laflour is a really really savvy head coach. 429 00:21:31,908 --> 00:21:34,868 Speaker 1: Stefanovitch is a first year offensive coordinator, but as a 430 00:21:34,988 --> 00:21:38,508 Speaker 1: really really smart offensive line guy, and I think Joe 431 00:21:38,508 --> 00:21:40,468 Speaker 1: Barry is one of the best defensive coordinators in the league. 432 00:21:40,548 --> 00:21:43,628 Speaker 1: You put that all together with arguably the most talented quarterback, 433 00:21:44,148 --> 00:21:46,148 Speaker 1: they're going to find a way and they'll win games. 434 00:21:46,188 --> 00:21:48,428 Speaker 1: They might not score as many points, they might not 435 00:21:48,468 --> 00:21:50,428 Speaker 1: have as many touchdowns from the number one wide receiver, 436 00:21:50,868 --> 00:21:52,708 Speaker 1: but I think they're gonna be just fine. I think 437 00:21:52,708 --> 00:21:54,468 Speaker 1: they're going to be better than that. You know there, 438 00:21:54,508 --> 00:21:57,468 Speaker 1: I think there has been a naivete on behalf of 439 00:21:57,468 --> 00:21:59,188 Speaker 1: a lot of fans and a lot of the media 440 00:21:59,468 --> 00:22:02,348 Speaker 1: who are sitting here same. Well, DeVante is gone, so 441 00:22:02,508 --> 00:22:05,068 Speaker 1: you know Aaron Rodgers is going to turn into some 442 00:22:05,148 --> 00:22:08,228 Speaker 1: sort of dinkin dunker and you know, put up twenty 443 00:22:08,228 --> 00:22:10,748 Speaker 1: points a game. This is the best quarterback in the league. 444 00:22:10,788 --> 00:22:13,548 Speaker 1: And I appreciate a last dance reference. I love the 445 00:22:13,668 --> 00:22:16,548 Speaker 1: Jordan pipp And stuff. The difference is is that you say, well, 446 00:22:16,628 --> 00:22:18,508 Speaker 1: can Jordan have gotten back to the finals of Pippin? 447 00:22:18,628 --> 00:22:22,188 Speaker 1: Left this? Jordan? This Rodgers want to ring before that 448 00:22:22,228 --> 00:22:25,428 Speaker 1: Pippin showed up. He want MVPs before Davante Adams was there. 449 00:22:25,668 --> 00:22:28,028 Speaker 1: Let's stop pretend you Aaron Rodgers is some sort of 450 00:22:28,108 --> 00:22:32,708 Speaker 1: creation of Davante Adams. Davante Adams was a tourist for 451 00:22:32,788 --> 00:22:36,268 Speaker 1: a while in the Aaron Rodgers experience. Aaron Rodgers is 452 00:22:36,308 --> 00:22:40,428 Speaker 1: not because of DeVante. Maybe DeVante's because of Aaron Rodgers. 453 00:22:40,508 --> 00:22:42,348 Speaker 1: You think DeVante is just gonna pick right up with 454 00:22:42,348 --> 00:22:45,268 Speaker 1: Derek Card this year, we'll find out. I'm even gonna say, 455 00:22:45,348 --> 00:22:47,708 Speaker 1: don't be surprised if in fact, I hate the phrase 456 00:22:47,748 --> 00:22:51,908 Speaker 1: don't be surprised. I think a conversation this year. Now 457 00:22:52,028 --> 00:22:54,108 Speaker 1: I'm doubling back. I think Aaron Rodgers will be in 458 00:22:54,148 --> 00:22:55,828 Speaker 1: the MVP conversation this year. And you're what are you 459 00:22:55,868 --> 00:22:58,348 Speaker 1: talking about? You're crazy. I don't think so. I think 460 00:22:58,348 --> 00:23:00,108 Speaker 1: he is that talented and that smart, and he will 461 00:23:00,148 --> 00:23:02,348 Speaker 1: figure it out, and it'll be Aaron Jones, and it'll 462 00:23:02,388 --> 00:23:04,268 Speaker 1: be Tanya, and it'll be these rookie guys, and it'll 463 00:23:04,268 --> 00:23:08,308 Speaker 1: be Lazard. It'll be an ensemble cast as opposed to 464 00:23:08,428 --> 00:23:11,348 Speaker 1: the leading man number seventeen. I just think Lafleur is 465 00:23:11,348 --> 00:23:13,828 Speaker 1: too capable and Rogers is too damn good back to 466 00:23:13,988 --> 00:23:16,428 Speaker 1: back MVPs, and it's going to be looked at as 467 00:23:16,428 --> 00:23:18,068 Speaker 1: a joke that I'm saying he's going to be even 468 00:23:18,108 --> 00:23:20,428 Speaker 1: in the mix. Peter, break this down right now. If 469 00:23:20,468 --> 00:23:22,868 Speaker 1: you think the media or the public at large were 470 00:23:22,908 --> 00:23:27,068 Speaker 1: to rank their top five likely MVP candidates, dere and 471 00:23:27,108 --> 00:23:29,348 Speaker 1: you got your Mahomes and your Alan. Does Rogers even 472 00:23:29,348 --> 00:23:30,588 Speaker 1: have a spot on that list because he has a 473 00:23:30,628 --> 00:23:33,268 Speaker 1: spot on mine. I think he actually he's a two 474 00:23:33,308 --> 00:23:36,108 Speaker 1: time reigning MVP, and I think his value might been 475 00:23:36,188 --> 00:23:38,988 Speaker 1: greater this year without Davante Adams. If they go out 476 00:23:38,988 --> 00:23:41,108 Speaker 1: there and they go thirteen and four or fourteen and 477 00:23:41,188 --> 00:23:42,868 Speaker 1: three and their number one offense in the league, you 478 00:23:42,908 --> 00:23:44,948 Speaker 1: better believe Rogers is gonna be hoisting that trophy again 479 00:23:44,948 --> 00:23:47,388 Speaker 1: at NFL Honors. And I think the fact that he's there, 480 00:23:47,588 --> 00:23:50,028 Speaker 1: and the fact that he's present and he's not under 481 00:23:50,068 --> 00:23:52,828 Speaker 1: a waterfall out in Hawaii with Miles Teller this offseason, 482 00:23:52,908 --> 00:23:54,748 Speaker 1: I think it goes a long way. Peter, You're right. 483 00:23:54,788 --> 00:23:56,948 Speaker 1: You know what he's doing. He's thrown passes to Romeo 484 00:23:57,068 --> 00:24:01,108 Speaker 1: dubs and he's thrown passes to Lazard, and he's gonna work. 485 00:24:01,548 --> 00:24:03,748 Speaker 1: They'll be ready. They're always ready. I'm not saying they're 486 00:24:03,748 --> 00:24:05,828 Speaker 1: gonna go seventeen and oh and he's gonna be VP. 487 00:24:06,348 --> 00:24:08,868 Speaker 1: Just be careful doubting him. That's all I'm saying, everybody, 488 00:24:09,148 --> 00:24:12,068 Speaker 1: Good morning football on Wednesday. Let's have ourselves a draft. 489 00:24:12,348 --> 00:24:15,228 Speaker 1: Draft segments are undefeated, they're always fun, they're always exciting. 490 00:24:15,228 --> 00:24:18,228 Speaker 1: But let's test that theory. This one could get dicey. 491 00:24:18,308 --> 00:24:20,788 Speaker 1: Now we've been doing drafts recently. Draft says the four 492 00:24:20,828 --> 00:24:24,308 Speaker 1: hosts go around and around and we draft NFL players 493 00:24:24,308 --> 00:24:28,708 Speaker 1: throughout history for the most exciting player, the fastest player, 494 00:24:28,748 --> 00:24:30,628 Speaker 1: the most likable player, and then we come up with 495 00:24:30,668 --> 00:24:32,188 Speaker 1: a team and at the end, you guys can judge 496 00:24:32,188 --> 00:24:34,388 Speaker 1: you as the best team. Guys, this one's interesting. We 497 00:24:34,428 --> 00:24:37,268 Speaker 1: have decided today to have a little fun and draft 498 00:24:37,548 --> 00:24:41,988 Speaker 1: the clutchest players in NFL history. That word clutch what 499 00:24:42,148 --> 00:24:44,988 Speaker 1: exactly does it mean. It's a little hard to define. 500 00:24:45,028 --> 00:24:48,148 Speaker 1: In football, basketball, you know what it is, golf, baseball, 501 00:24:48,188 --> 00:24:51,188 Speaker 1: in football. In this team sport, this could get a 502 00:24:51,228 --> 00:24:53,028 Speaker 1: little vague, and it's up to the four of us 503 00:24:53,028 --> 00:24:54,908 Speaker 1: to define it. So here's the deal. We will do 504 00:24:54,948 --> 00:24:57,668 Speaker 1: three rounds. The draft will snake back and forth. You'll 505 00:24:57,708 --> 00:25:01,148 Speaker 1: have twenty seconds per pick. I went last and yesterday's draft, 506 00:25:01,308 --> 00:25:03,748 Speaker 1: so I will go first today. Okay, it's going to 507 00:25:03,828 --> 00:25:08,228 Speaker 1: go myself, Peter Sean Will. We're drafting the clutches players 508 00:25:08,228 --> 00:25:10,548 Speaker 1: in NFL history. I am on the clock. Here we go, 509 00:25:10,628 --> 00:25:13,828 Speaker 1: Flutch draft number one overall pick. This is a pretty 510 00:25:13,828 --> 00:25:16,148 Speaker 1: big honor, who is the clutchest player in NFL history. 511 00:25:16,348 --> 00:25:20,268 Speaker 1: This one is easy. Joe Montana the number one overall pick. 512 00:25:20,748 --> 00:25:25,228 Speaker 1: Four super Bowls, four wins, zero interceptions in those four 513 00:25:25,268 --> 00:25:29,388 Speaker 1: super Bowls. Montana is off the board. Peter Straeger, you 514 00:25:29,468 --> 00:25:32,228 Speaker 1: have picked number two. Yeah. I would have taken Montana 515 00:25:32,308 --> 00:25:35,108 Speaker 1: first overall as well, but second overall, I can't go wrong. 516 00:25:35,108 --> 00:25:38,348 Speaker 1: It's a guy who grew up idolizing Joe Montana out 517 00:25:38,388 --> 00:25:39,708 Speaker 1: there in the Bay and has only gone on to 518 00:25:39,748 --> 00:25:41,748 Speaker 1: win the most Super Bowl rings as a quarterback and 519 00:25:41,788 --> 00:25:43,828 Speaker 1: the most super Bowl rings of the player ever. I'm 520 00:25:43,868 --> 00:25:46,468 Speaker 1: taking Tom Brady second overall, and I feel just find 521 00:25:46,468 --> 00:25:49,708 Speaker 1: me that. Okay, Okay, we're going quarterbacks here, boys. Look 522 00:25:49,708 --> 00:25:52,108 Speaker 1: I love it. Montana never lost the Super Bowl. Tom 523 00:25:52,108 --> 00:25:54,948 Speaker 1: Brady's got a lot of them, but he also he 524 00:25:54,988 --> 00:25:57,788 Speaker 1: also lost a couple of them, right, Shelly Eli, Man, 525 00:25:57,868 --> 00:26:01,388 Speaker 1: Yes you are. I'm defeated super Bowls, took down Tom Brady. 526 00:26:01,388 --> 00:26:03,548 Speaker 1: I'm going with the Eli give me number ten. It's 527 00:26:03,588 --> 00:26:07,388 Speaker 1: great pick. I'm gonna go John Elway, who could forget 528 00:26:07,428 --> 00:26:11,068 Speaker 1: what happened with the Drive and the Browns, So he 529 00:26:11,268 --> 00:26:14,268 Speaker 1: is going to be my pick there and so I'm 530 00:26:14,268 --> 00:26:16,868 Speaker 1: gonna wrap up that first round. Now can we go 531 00:26:16,948 --> 00:26:19,548 Speaker 1: to the second round? And so who I'm going to 532 00:26:19,668 --> 00:26:23,868 Speaker 1: pick is one Jerry Rice. Just look at his numbers 533 00:26:23,908 --> 00:26:26,668 Speaker 1: for what he did for the Raiders was ridiculous. So 534 00:26:26,868 --> 00:26:29,988 Speaker 1: I'm going with Jerry Rice too. All right, I'm gonna 535 00:26:30,028 --> 00:26:33,588 Speaker 1: go with a defensive player here, and this guy, all 536 00:26:33,588 --> 00:26:36,868 Speaker 1: he's done is just leave the NFL in career sacks 537 00:26:36,908 --> 00:26:39,508 Speaker 1: two hundred sacks. Give me Bruce Smith. I know he 538 00:26:39,508 --> 00:26:41,468 Speaker 1: doesn't have a super ring with Buffalo Bills. He went 539 00:26:41,508 --> 00:26:43,348 Speaker 1: over for four, but that wasn't his fault. And anybody 540 00:26:43,388 --> 00:26:46,468 Speaker 1: remembers Super Bowl twenty five, he tackled Jeff Hasseller in 541 00:26:46,468 --> 00:26:48,228 Speaker 1: the end zone for a safety to put them up 542 00:26:48,268 --> 00:26:52,108 Speaker 1: twelve to three. Bruce Smith, give me him all day long, 543 00:26:52,188 --> 00:26:54,108 Speaker 1: all night long. The left tackle did not want to 544 00:26:54,148 --> 00:26:57,348 Speaker 1: see him matter where he was long to go. All right, Peter, 545 00:26:57,388 --> 00:27:00,188 Speaker 1: what do you got? Fifth clutchest player of all time? 546 00:27:00,188 --> 00:27:03,388 Speaker 1: And you're taking a guy who's never won the Chip. Interesting, sean, 547 00:27:03,548 --> 00:27:06,148 Speaker 1: but that's why we did. I'm gonna go with bart Star. 548 00:27:06,388 --> 00:27:08,748 Speaker 1: Bart Starr was nine and one in the postseason. Over 549 00:27:08,828 --> 00:27:11,068 Speaker 1: his career, he won two Super Bowls, the first two, 550 00:27:11,388 --> 00:27:14,748 Speaker 1: and he won three NFL championships the Lombardi Packers bart 551 00:27:14,788 --> 00:27:17,988 Speaker 1: Star always a winner, always there, and if it wasn't 552 00:27:18,068 --> 00:27:20,308 Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl starting in sixty seven, he would 553 00:27:20,348 --> 00:27:25,228 Speaker 1: have five rings. Bart Star my second overall pick, Peter, 554 00:27:25,348 --> 00:27:27,228 Speaker 1: I like that pick a lot. We are ending the 555 00:27:27,308 --> 00:27:30,268 Speaker 1: second round here, and I would encourage everyone to remember, 556 00:27:30,828 --> 00:27:34,388 Speaker 1: it's not the best NFL players ever. It is specifically 557 00:27:34,548 --> 00:27:37,428 Speaker 1: making big plays in big moments above and beyond the 558 00:27:37,428 --> 00:27:40,508 Speaker 1: rest of your competition, which is why I'm not choosing 559 00:27:40,548 --> 00:27:44,628 Speaker 1: offense here. I'm not choosing defense here. Give me Adam Vinetari. 560 00:27:44,828 --> 00:27:50,068 Speaker 1: I want Adam Venetari, undrafted, multiple Super Bowl rings, still 561 00:27:50,188 --> 00:27:52,828 Speaker 1: kicking in Kurt Warner's nightmares as he watches us at 562 00:27:52,828 --> 00:27:56,668 Speaker 1: home doing jazzercise in his home Jim. Adam Vinetari joins 563 00:27:56,748 --> 00:27:58,908 Speaker 1: Joe Montana and my team, and now we start the 564 00:27:58,948 --> 00:28:01,868 Speaker 1: third I remember you only have one pick left, think clutch, 565 00:28:02,428 --> 00:28:05,028 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna stay close to home. My final pick 566 00:28:05,388 --> 00:28:08,348 Speaker 1: for the Clutch NFL Players Draft is someone who's not 567 00:28:08,388 --> 00:28:10,908 Speaker 1: the most physically gifted, but man, if it is third 568 00:28:10,908 --> 00:28:12,748 Speaker 1: and ten in a big game, need eleven yards, he 569 00:28:12,868 --> 00:28:17,348 Speaker 1: will get it for you. Julian Edelman. I want Edelmans. 570 00:28:17,548 --> 00:28:21,748 Speaker 1: I have Edelman and vinitary Bay nice huge moments correcting 571 00:28:21,868 --> 00:28:26,228 Speaker 1: that castle for Tom Brady. That's my team Montana, Nary Adelman, Peter, 572 00:28:26,308 --> 00:28:30,108 Speaker 1: who's your final pick? I'm debating there's a defensive player 573 00:28:30,148 --> 00:28:32,268 Speaker 1: from those Patriots teams that just seem to always make 574 00:28:32,268 --> 00:28:34,308 Speaker 1: a big play that happens to be a colleague of ours. 575 00:28:35,108 --> 00:28:37,988 Speaker 1: And yet I gotta go somewhat chalk here. I'm going 576 00:28:38,068 --> 00:28:41,348 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman. Troy Aikman three for three in Super Bowls, 577 00:28:41,348 --> 00:28:43,788 Speaker 1: always found a way in the NSC championship games to 578 00:28:43,828 --> 00:28:47,068 Speaker 1: get his team over the hump. Eli did it, Aikman 579 00:28:47,148 --> 00:28:50,308 Speaker 1: did it. I'm going Troy Aikman to round out my team. 580 00:28:51,948 --> 00:28:54,148 Speaker 1: It's good team, Peter, all right, let's stick with the 581 00:28:54,148 --> 00:28:57,868 Speaker 1: Cowboys right there. You're going triplets here. I'm not gonna 582 00:28:57,868 --> 00:29:00,508 Speaker 1: go Emmitt Smith. I'm gonna go Michael Irvin. Give me 583 00:29:00,548 --> 00:29:03,828 Speaker 1: the playmaker. You get a nickname like a playmaker, no 584 00:29:03,828 --> 00:29:05,988 Speaker 1: doubt about. They're going to you with the game on 585 00:29:06,028 --> 00:29:08,388 Speaker 1: the line when they need something big to happen. I 586 00:29:08,428 --> 00:29:11,068 Speaker 1: see your jury, Rice my man, Will Silva, and I 587 00:29:11,148 --> 00:29:14,708 Speaker 1: raise you with Michael Uban. All right for my pick, 588 00:29:15,348 --> 00:29:19,988 Speaker 1: mister Arella, mile high, salute baby, somebody who we have 589 00:29:20,228 --> 00:29:25,788 Speaker 1: worked with, Terrell Davis twelve touchdowns, eleven hundred and forty 590 00:29:25,868 --> 00:29:29,468 Speaker 1: yards on the ground. When it came to being clutch 591 00:29:29,668 --> 00:29:33,668 Speaker 1: in the postseason, TD was it Hall of Famer. He 592 00:29:33,788 --> 00:29:36,268 Speaker 1: is who I'm riding with. All right, guys, that's the 593 00:29:36,308 --> 00:29:39,388 Speaker 1: picks we are all in. A lot of players not 594 00:29:39,508 --> 00:29:43,148 Speaker 1: picked Ben Roethlisberger to sant Tony Alms, Vacdamzone, not selected, 595 00:29:43,468 --> 00:29:47,108 Speaker 1: Kyle and Itsierrian Edelman. I was going to take I 596 00:29:47,188 --> 00:29:49,308 Speaker 1: was gonna take William mc ginnis. Also, it seems like 597 00:29:49,428 --> 00:29:51,828 Speaker 1: there were so many Patriots because of all the dominance 598 00:29:51,908 --> 00:29:53,828 Speaker 1: that they had. I gotta tell you, I took eightman, 599 00:29:53,908 --> 00:29:55,428 Speaker 1: but if Edelman was on the board, I might have 600 00:29:55,468 --> 00:29:58,908 Speaker 1: been going either Edelman or Gronk or Willie McGinnis as well. 601 00:29:59,348 --> 00:30:01,308 Speaker 1: Will What do you think of your team? Elway, Rice 602 00:30:01,348 --> 00:30:04,068 Speaker 1: and TD. I like those guys what they did in 603 00:30:04,108 --> 00:30:06,908 Speaker 1: the season, the numbers that they put up. I feel 604 00:30:06,988 --> 00:30:10,388 Speaker 1: really good about my team. It's interesting that I thought 605 00:30:10,508 --> 00:30:13,788 Speaker 1: that maybe Sean would go with John Elway, but no, 606 00:30:13,988 --> 00:30:16,828 Speaker 1: we went with this guy Eli. Yeah, I think Eli 607 00:30:17,028 --> 00:30:19,388 Speaker 1: was the easiest choice out of my three selections. I 608 00:30:19,508 --> 00:30:22,788 Speaker 1: too like Vinitary KB, so I was attempted to go 609 00:30:22,868 --> 00:30:25,108 Speaker 1: with him, and I like Willie Mack had four and 610 00:30:25,148 --> 00:30:27,708 Speaker 1: a half sacks in one playoff game, so I wanted 611 00:30:27,708 --> 00:30:30,628 Speaker 1: to go with my Irish twin William McGinnis. But Bruce 612 00:30:30,708 --> 00:30:34,068 Speaker 1: Smith when you look at what he did thirteen seasons 613 00:30:34,268 --> 00:30:36,428 Speaker 1: of ten plus sex, so I wasn't just going for 614 00:30:36,548 --> 00:30:38,508 Speaker 1: just the Super Bowl aspect of it, Like I mean, 615 00:30:38,748 --> 00:30:40,508 Speaker 1: he was clutch year in and year out. You know 616 00:30:40,548 --> 00:30:43,068 Speaker 1: what's funny is it when you really embraced the word 617 00:30:43,108 --> 00:30:45,228 Speaker 1: in the concept of clutch. I'm not kidding guys. I 618 00:30:45,388 --> 00:30:47,828 Speaker 1: was thinking of taking Vinetarry with the first overall pick. 619 00:30:48,028 --> 00:30:50,668 Speaker 1: I mean, you take him in that game in the Tower. 620 00:30:50,668 --> 00:30:52,548 Speaker 1: I was thinking of going number one, and I was 621 00:30:52,588 --> 00:30:54,548 Speaker 1: just thrilled that he felt to me with the second 622 00:30:54,588 --> 00:30:57,348 Speaker 1: to second round last pick. So here's what's fascinating. We're 623 00:30:57,348 --> 00:30:59,268 Speaker 1: gonna take this right now. We're gonna put on Instagram, 624 00:30:59,268 --> 00:31:01,268 Speaker 1: We're gonna put it on Twitter, and we'll see what 625 00:31:01,348 --> 00:31:04,588 Speaker 1: the people think. Because some of these teams like Sean As, 626 00:31:04,828 --> 00:31:08,628 Speaker 1: all these famous players and Hall of famers and Shoda's 627 00:31:08,628 --> 00:31:11,428 Speaker 1: will and Peter went all quarterbacks for the second draft 628 00:31:11,468 --> 00:31:13,268 Speaker 1: in a row. It's gonna be interesting to see what 629 00:31:13,388 --> 00:31:16,868 Speaker 1: the people gravitate too. If they embraced the vineteria. They say, 630 00:31:16,908 --> 00:31:19,588 Speaker 1: this is crazy. He's got Jerry Rice. You lose. We 631 00:31:19,668 --> 00:31:21,628 Speaker 1: will put it out now. All of you watching go 632 00:31:21,908 --> 00:31:26,108 Speaker 1: and vote. As always, rough draft gives you the sweating 633 00:31:26,148 --> 00:31:29,708 Speaker 1: palms and the hot reactions from these guys. That was 634 00:31:29,748 --> 00:31:48,908 Speaker 1: really fun. As always, well drafted. The other miners did 635 00:31:48,948 --> 00:31:52,828 Speaker 1: begin their mandatory minigamp yesterday. All right, here's the deal, Debo. 636 00:31:52,988 --> 00:31:55,308 Speaker 1: He's actually there. He requested the trade earlier this offseason. 637 00:31:55,388 --> 00:31:58,068 Speaker 1: He skipp thoughts, but there he is kind of slow 638 00:31:58,148 --> 00:32:02,388 Speaker 1: walking out in the field. Looks good, but not in uniform. Okay, 639 00:32:02,668 --> 00:32:06,868 Speaker 1: not in uniform. Guys and horse. Everyone at minicamp to 640 00:32:07,028 --> 00:32:09,708 Speaker 1: a man was asked about their guy Deebo. Samuel, here 641 00:32:09,748 --> 00:32:13,388 Speaker 1: we go. I always go through the business part of 642 00:32:13,428 --> 00:32:15,308 Speaker 1: this league and things like that, But I mean, I 643 00:32:15,348 --> 00:32:18,108 Speaker 1: don't think the relationship was ever too far away to 644 00:32:18,748 --> 00:32:21,268 Speaker 1: not get it back to normal. Love our relationship with Debo, 645 00:32:21,388 --> 00:32:23,508 Speaker 1: and hopefully they'll help us be able to solve this 646 00:32:23,628 --> 00:32:26,428 Speaker 1: contractually before we get to the season. Debo's a guy 647 00:32:26,588 --> 00:32:28,428 Speaker 1: we'd love to have in the locker room. Man, it's 648 00:32:28,468 --> 00:32:31,708 Speaker 1: it's good to have him, Trent Bosa, those guys back. 649 00:32:31,868 --> 00:32:33,828 Speaker 1: But I talked to Debo a ton. I mean, even 650 00:32:33,868 --> 00:32:36,268 Speaker 1: when he's not here, So it's obviously good at him back. 651 00:32:36,388 --> 00:32:39,428 Speaker 1: He's grabbing a situation by the horns now and you know, 652 00:32:39,548 --> 00:32:41,748 Speaker 1: showing how mature he is by showing up, And you know, 653 00:32:41,828 --> 00:32:44,068 Speaker 1: I think that goes a long way. Guys. I think 654 00:32:44,148 --> 00:32:46,628 Speaker 1: we all agree there's about eight or nine teams that 655 00:32:46,708 --> 00:32:49,428 Speaker 1: seem to really matter, and then there's some surprise teams. 656 00:32:49,668 --> 00:32:51,428 Speaker 1: The Niners are one of those teams that really matter. 657 00:32:51,588 --> 00:32:53,308 Speaker 1: They're in the mix. They have great coaches, they have 658 00:32:53,428 --> 00:32:56,548 Speaker 1: great players. So let's take this wherever you want to go. Obviously, 659 00:32:56,628 --> 00:32:58,588 Speaker 1: Trey Lance is gonna loom large and what he does. 660 00:32:58,748 --> 00:33:00,908 Speaker 1: But what is the biggest factor you think it's going 661 00:33:00,988 --> 00:33:03,028 Speaker 1: to determine whether it's a pretty good nine Ers season 662 00:33:03,308 --> 00:33:05,508 Speaker 1: or a really special one. Well, you're mister Bay Area, 663 00:33:05,548 --> 00:33:07,228 Speaker 1: what do you think about your Niners? I think it's 664 00:33:07,268 --> 00:33:11,068 Speaker 1: definitely Debo. But just because he's there, guys, doesn't mean 665 00:33:11,148 --> 00:33:14,068 Speaker 1: this thing is fixed or that it's resolved. For me, 666 00:33:14,188 --> 00:33:17,228 Speaker 1: the concern is the relationship. They need to repair this thing. 667 00:33:17,348 --> 00:33:20,588 Speaker 1: It's like marriage counseling or something. You need to have 668 00:33:20,788 --> 00:33:24,188 Speaker 1: the box of Kleenex there, hug it out, air out 669 00:33:24,308 --> 00:33:27,428 Speaker 1: your issues. Where I get concerned as if Debo is 670 00:33:27,428 --> 00:33:29,708 Speaker 1: going to be finicky if they call a certain number 671 00:33:29,748 --> 00:33:32,188 Speaker 1: of running plays, how's he going to take that? I 672 00:33:32,228 --> 00:33:34,908 Speaker 1: think to forty nine ers and Kyle Shanahan maybe need 673 00:33:35,028 --> 00:33:37,588 Speaker 1: to put more of the burden on some of the 674 00:33:37,708 --> 00:33:41,228 Speaker 1: other running backs so it's not all on Debo. The 675 00:33:41,348 --> 00:33:43,628 Speaker 1: other thing is maybe they need to watch the YouTube 676 00:33:43,748 --> 00:33:46,828 Speaker 1: video during the Cowboys win in the playoffs when Debo 677 00:33:47,348 --> 00:33:49,508 Speaker 1: turned and looked to Kyle Shannah and say, hey, Kyle, 678 00:33:49,628 --> 00:33:52,228 Speaker 1: let's go. Hey, I told you, let's go right after 679 00:33:52,308 --> 00:33:56,428 Speaker 1: they scored happier times, harmonious times. They need to get 680 00:33:56,508 --> 00:33:58,748 Speaker 1: back to that. And when it was crunch time, when 681 00:33:58,788 --> 00:34:02,108 Speaker 1: it was time, when the game was critical, they gave 682 00:34:02,188 --> 00:34:05,628 Speaker 1: it to number nineteen, not to George Kittle or any 683 00:34:05,708 --> 00:34:08,268 Speaker 1: other of the forty nine er players, it was him. 684 00:34:08,628 --> 00:34:11,548 Speaker 1: And let's also not forget that Debo is a really 685 00:34:11,668 --> 00:34:15,668 Speaker 1: good white receiver. Guys. He led the league eighteen yards 686 00:34:15,788 --> 00:34:19,148 Speaker 1: per catch and we just heard from Trey Lance he's 687 00:34:19,188 --> 00:34:21,548 Speaker 1: going to be the main man under center, so they 688 00:34:21,708 --> 00:34:25,868 Speaker 1: have to get Debo in there. And on the same page, 689 00:34:26,148 --> 00:34:28,868 Speaker 1: it is critical for them. Shiny Yeah, well, Debo's the 690 00:34:28,948 --> 00:34:32,188 Speaker 1: most explosive factor. But we just showed you Trent Williams 691 00:34:32,268 --> 00:34:34,628 Speaker 1: and the massive planet of a man, So I'm gonna 692 00:34:34,628 --> 00:34:36,468 Speaker 1: stick with that theme of the offensive line. We know 693 00:34:36,548 --> 00:34:39,108 Speaker 1: he's playing left tackle, finds Trent, but what we're not 694 00:34:39,268 --> 00:34:41,388 Speaker 1: sure about is what's going on in the center position. 695 00:34:41,548 --> 00:34:44,148 Speaker 1: Look for the forty nine ers, their offensive line has 696 00:34:44,268 --> 00:34:47,308 Speaker 1: basically been disassembled this offseason. On the end, here Lakea. 697 00:34:47,388 --> 00:34:50,148 Speaker 1: Thomlinson's signed as a free agent with the Jets. Alexmack 698 00:34:50,228 --> 00:34:52,468 Speaker 1: just retired. You know what, the best friend of a 699 00:34:52,588 --> 00:34:55,468 Speaker 1: young quarterback is a veteran center, somebody that can help 700 00:34:55,548 --> 00:34:58,628 Speaker 1: him out with the mic declaration, with sliding protections, with 701 00:34:58,788 --> 00:35:01,308 Speaker 1: understanding what defense are going to try to do. Look 702 00:35:01,628 --> 00:35:06,108 Speaker 1: from firsthand experience, I experienced a rookie quarterback with Eli Manning. 703 00:35:06,108 --> 00:35:09,468 Speaker 1: I experienced young quarterbacks before. The one thing that defensive 704 00:35:09,508 --> 00:35:11,948 Speaker 1: quarters love to do is blitcha. They're gonna find out 705 00:35:12,028 --> 00:35:14,228 Speaker 1: there's this guy see the defense. Can he anticipate, can 706 00:35:14,308 --> 00:35:17,428 Speaker 1: he change protection? Is? Can he protect himself. So I 707 00:35:17,548 --> 00:35:19,708 Speaker 1: think that's the X factor with this offense. And Kyle 708 00:35:19,788 --> 00:35:21,868 Speaker 1: Shanahan wants to run the football, he wants to be 709 00:35:21,988 --> 00:35:24,508 Speaker 1: that outside zone playoshi pass the game. Aren't they gonna 710 00:35:24,508 --> 00:35:26,148 Speaker 1: be able to handle the ins here? Who's gonna step 711 00:35:26,228 --> 00:35:29,388 Speaker 1: in and fill that void with Alex mclock bart Oats 712 00:35:29,468 --> 00:35:31,948 Speaker 1: is long retired Will Silva as I know, you know, 713 00:35:32,188 --> 00:35:34,868 Speaker 1: no Harris Barton, There's no Jesse Sapolo. They're gonna have 714 00:35:34,908 --> 00:35:36,548 Speaker 1: to find a young buck to step up and fill 715 00:35:36,628 --> 00:35:39,508 Speaker 1: their shoes. Yeah, and no Alex Andy Cross and you 716 00:35:39,588 --> 00:35:42,348 Speaker 1: start looking at that offensive line, Yeah, it's it's gonna 717 00:35:42,388 --> 00:35:44,668 Speaker 1: be an issue and they gotta protect him. But it's 718 00:35:44,668 --> 00:35:47,028 Speaker 1: got to be Lance. And I'm sure Kyle will agree, 719 00:35:47,068 --> 00:35:48,588 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go take it as spin and like 720 00:35:48,748 --> 00:35:52,628 Speaker 1: it's the development of lands. So Garoppolo's not there right now, 721 00:35:52,628 --> 00:35:54,308 Speaker 1: and I think it's a good thing for Trey Lance. 722 00:35:54,508 --> 00:35:56,628 Speaker 1: I think it's a good thing. Garoppolo's down there training 723 00:35:56,668 --> 00:35:59,308 Speaker 1: in southern California trying to get his shoulder right. But 724 00:35:59,468 --> 00:36:01,348 Speaker 1: that means that it's Trey Lance's team at least to 725 00:36:01,428 --> 00:36:03,988 Speaker 1: get his beak wet as being the leader and from 726 00:36:04,028 --> 00:36:06,828 Speaker 1: everything we're hearing from these players. He's been awesome this 727 00:36:06,948 --> 00:36:10,108 Speaker 1: offseason and he's been leading sessions and he's been the guy. 728 00:36:10,428 --> 00:36:12,748 Speaker 1: I think it was a major loss, losing guys like 729 00:36:12,988 --> 00:36:17,388 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel and Wes Welker and Rich Skalandarow. He started 730 00:36:17,428 --> 00:36:20,108 Speaker 1: talking about who they have. Kyle Shanahan's the head coach. 731 00:36:20,508 --> 00:36:22,268 Speaker 1: The person in his ear is going to be Brian 732 00:36:22,428 --> 00:36:26,548 Speaker 1: Greasy this season. Brian Greasy. After ESPN broke the bank 733 00:36:26,628 --> 00:36:29,508 Speaker 1: to bring in Troy Aikman as their analysts, Brian Greasy 734 00:36:29,628 --> 00:36:32,348 Speaker 1: quickly at the combine pivoted and took a job as 735 00:36:32,388 --> 00:36:34,628 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers quarterbacks coach. And at first I 736 00:36:34,748 --> 00:36:36,268 Speaker 1: rolled my eyes and I say, well, that seems like 737 00:36:36,308 --> 00:36:39,988 Speaker 1: it's outside the box. I've heard from multiple, multiple different 738 00:36:40,068 --> 00:36:43,628 Speaker 1: people in the NFL that Greasy is expected to be 739 00:36:43,788 --> 00:36:46,428 Speaker 1: awesome at this that from guys who played with them 740 00:36:46,468 --> 00:36:48,708 Speaker 1: and guys who have coached him, that this is going 741 00:36:48,788 --> 00:36:50,748 Speaker 1: to be a slam dunk. So I look at that 742 00:36:50,868 --> 00:36:54,868 Speaker 1: unlikely marriage of Brian Greasy, Bob Greasy's son, of course, 743 00:36:54,908 --> 00:36:57,348 Speaker 1: with the NFL career and the hit Monday Night football career, 744 00:36:57,468 --> 00:37:00,988 Speaker 1: and Trey Lance as like developing together for a team 745 00:37:01,028 --> 00:37:04,068 Speaker 1: that went to the NFC Championship Game last year. Fascinating, dynamic, 746 00:37:04,468 --> 00:37:07,828 Speaker 1: Greasy and Lance. Let's go, that's what the forty nine 747 00:37:07,948 --> 00:37:10,348 Speaker 1: is do. John Lynch was outside the box, Peter, you 748 00:37:10,428 --> 00:37:13,588 Speaker 1: know that, and Mike McDaniels outside the box, like Trey 749 00:37:13,748 --> 00:37:18,188 Speaker 1: Lance is outside the box, way outside. And we can 750 00:37:18,228 --> 00:37:20,068 Speaker 1: all boil it down to this. Let's say the forty 751 00:37:20,148 --> 00:37:21,588 Speaker 1: nine ers come out and they got debo there and 752 00:37:21,668 --> 00:37:23,588 Speaker 1: he shows up for week one and they fixed the 753 00:37:23,668 --> 00:37:26,188 Speaker 1: old line and everybody seems to be liking Brian Greasy. 754 00:37:26,268 --> 00:37:28,508 Speaker 1: So all these things we just mentioned are going. Well, 755 00:37:28,668 --> 00:37:30,668 Speaker 1: it's first and ten from the twenty five. Does Trey 756 00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:32,668 Speaker 1: Lance have it? I don't know. I don't know if 757 00:37:32,668 --> 00:37:35,188 Speaker 1: anybody knows. I don't know if Shannan knows yet. I 758 00:37:35,268 --> 00:37:37,348 Speaker 1: know they invested in them and they liked the future. 759 00:37:37,708 --> 00:37:39,388 Speaker 1: But where I always come out on these young guys, 760 00:37:39,468 --> 00:37:41,308 Speaker 1: it's just I know it's not going to be pretty 761 00:37:41,428 --> 00:37:43,748 Speaker 1: right off the bat. It rarely is. I don't need 762 00:37:43,908 --> 00:37:46,508 Speaker 1: MVP numbers, I don't need the Mahomes experience or even 763 00:37:46,588 --> 00:37:49,628 Speaker 1: the borough. But do you have it? What is it? 764 00:37:50,348 --> 00:37:52,188 Speaker 1: You can tell that maybe the numbers aren't greater, or 765 00:37:52,188 --> 00:37:54,068 Speaker 1: maybe there's a couple interceptions, but damn it, that guy 766 00:37:54,108 --> 00:37:56,628 Speaker 1: can play. I always looked at Josh Allen, Josh s 767 00:37:56,628 --> 00:37:58,468 Speaker 1: Allen his first couple of years was a little nuts, 768 00:37:58,708 --> 00:38:01,188 Speaker 1: and it wasn't pretty, and it wasn't super productive as 769 00:38:01,228 --> 00:38:05,028 Speaker 1: a rookie, but he definitely had it. He had Russell 770 00:38:05,068 --> 00:38:06,788 Speaker 1: Wilson when he took the field for the first time 771 00:38:06,828 --> 00:38:09,708 Speaker 1: in Seattle had it. You could just watch me. Well, 772 00:38:09,708 --> 00:38:11,988 Speaker 1: that guy can play. Does Train Lance have that? We 773 00:38:12,188 --> 00:38:14,428 Speaker 1: don't know? And I think what's interesting is that this 774 00:38:14,588 --> 00:38:17,508 Speaker 1: question of does he have it? We post directly. It's 775 00:38:17,588 --> 00:38:20,548 Speaker 1: one of the few people who might know. Christian Watson, 776 00:38:20,908 --> 00:38:23,148 Speaker 1: rookie wide receiver for now for the Green Bay Packers, 777 00:38:23,228 --> 00:38:26,988 Speaker 1: who was in mandatory minicamp with Rogers, was Trey Lance's 778 00:38:27,348 --> 00:38:29,908 Speaker 1: college receiver. The two of those guys played again North 779 00:38:29,908 --> 00:38:32,868 Speaker 1: third State. Christian Watson came in studio into New York 780 00:38:32,908 --> 00:38:35,108 Speaker 1: City a Good Morning Football in the midst of talking 781 00:38:35,148 --> 00:38:37,668 Speaker 1: about his career in his draft prospects, Peter hit him 782 00:38:37,708 --> 00:38:40,268 Speaker 1: right between the eyes. Have a look. Sure, he's always 783 00:38:40,308 --> 00:38:42,108 Speaker 1: been my guy, even in college. I mean you could 784 00:38:42,148 --> 00:38:43,828 Speaker 1: see that, you know, he was a different breed. He 785 00:38:43,908 --> 00:38:45,228 Speaker 1: was the guy that was going to come in earlier 786 00:38:45,308 --> 00:38:47,748 Speaker 1: than everybody else and leave later than everybody else, and 787 00:38:47,828 --> 00:38:50,508 Speaker 1: he's gonna work at all times. That was contagious from him. 788 00:38:50,548 --> 00:38:52,468 Speaker 1: I mean, he got, you know, everybody around him to 789 00:38:52,588 --> 00:38:54,188 Speaker 1: do those same things. I mean, I think that's something 790 00:38:54,188 --> 00:38:55,828 Speaker 1: that's going to carry on to the next level. I'm 791 00:38:55,828 --> 00:38:57,148 Speaker 1: sure it has already, and I'm sure you know, as 792 00:38:57,348 --> 00:38:59,148 Speaker 1: as he gets more opportunity to showcase who he is 793 00:38:59,268 --> 00:39:01,628 Speaker 1: and play a little bit more, he's gonna show the 794 00:39:01,668 --> 00:39:03,268 Speaker 1: world exactly why he's in the position that he's in 795 00:39:03,388 --> 00:39:06,028 Speaker 1: right now. Is he good? He is great? Is he ready? 796 00:39:06,268 --> 00:39:10,068 Speaker 1: He's been ready. It's a great answers. Those are great answers, 797 00:39:10,188 --> 00:39:12,628 Speaker 1: and it makes me confident in how Watson's gonna do 798 00:39:12,668 --> 00:39:14,748 Speaker 1: with the Packers. That's a different story. He's not good. 799 00:39:14,828 --> 00:39:18,348 Speaker 1: He said he's great, he's been ready. You better be that. 800 00:39:18,548 --> 00:39:20,628 Speaker 1: NFC West is no joke. You're gonna play the Super 801 00:39:20,628 --> 00:39:23,188 Speaker 1: Bowl Champs. You're gonna Trey Lanz is gonna be under center, 802 00:39:23,188 --> 00:39:24,908 Speaker 1: and there's gonna be Aaron Donald sitting right there ready 803 00:39:24,908 --> 00:39:27,188 Speaker 1: to bite his head off. Sleepy little start on the 804 00:39:27,228 --> 00:39:29,748 Speaker 1: schedule for the Niners. But then Week four, Monday Night 805 00:39:29,828 --> 00:39:32,948 Speaker 1: football at home versus the world champion Los Angeles Rams. 806 00:39:32,988 --> 00:39:35,468 Speaker 1: That will be big time go time for Trey Lance. 807 00:39:35,508 --> 00:39:36,868 Speaker 1: Great job, guys, great discussion,
