Speaker 1: the visual of the red Chiefs and the Green Eagles
Speaker 1: and the blue Bills. Okay, Tod, Okay, here we go,
Speaker 1: thank you. Least likely headline from divisional playoff weekend, least
Speaker 1: likely read it and weep chiefs bow out at Arrowhead
Speaker 1: because the coach the head coach's name is Andy R.
Speaker 1: E I D. So this is gonna be playing off
Speaker 1: of all the home teams if there's an upset here,
Speaker 1: but least likely second one that hurts. Nothing special about
Speaker 1: Philly this time, Philly special. Philly Special hurts waiting here
Speaker 1: in Allantown Bill's mafia. Look to next season. You set
Speaker 1: him up to fail. I did not you did? Are
Speaker 1: you kidding me? I'm loving this. That's saying a little billy.
Speaker 1: Joel Bonus covers Brock in a hard place, pretty disappointing
Speaker 1: verse dollars. I'm gonna say that of all of them,
Speaker 1: that one for me is a little disappointing. Okay, it's
Speaker 1: a little simple. Right, you're better than that. That's the
Speaker 1: poll question today. Yes, he's likely headline all right. Intelligence
Speaker 1: runs in the family, not this one. Innovation runs in
Speaker 1: the family. Extraordinary runs in the family. The Mercedes Ben's
Speaker 1: range of SUVs, every member waiting to impress learn more
Speaker 1: to m B USA dot com, USA dot com. That's
Speaker 1: how Fritzie would pronounce it. Yes, point and Robert Groncossi
Speaker 1: goes us a A. He stresses that have you seen
Speaker 1: a good USA A commercial with Rob? Yet they are
Speaker 1: getting better? Oh, they're definitely getting better because he's toned down,
Speaker 1: is acting a little bit and that was acting, Yeah
Speaker 1: to to all of us actors, that's not acting. He's
Speaker 1: being a little less Rob grun oski ish in them,
Speaker 1: and it's working. They are getting better. Do you think
Speaker 1: they said, hey, a little less Gronk. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: we want you to be you just as you can.
Speaker 1: We try something a little more subdued. Yes, Paul in
Speaker 1: all serious, you've been on movie sets and have directors
Speaker 1: tell you the tone of a scene. Hello. When they
Speaker 1: talked to Grock and some of these commercials, do they
Speaker 1: tell him, hey, dude, kind of be a complete meathead?
Speaker 1: Because that seems like he's pushing himself into more of
Speaker 1: a character. And I don't think it's a I don't
Speaker 1: think he chose his direction. Yeah, they probably are asking
Speaker 1: him to be Gronk, not Rob Gronkolsk. Isn't an insult
Speaker 1: oh a little bit? Well, Uh, it's it's been very
Speaker 1: successful for him. He's cashing in on it. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know, if he has a long shelf life,
Speaker 1: if he's going to be an action he wrote or anything. Yes, yes, see.
Speaker 1: Do you remember when Jessica Simpson and Nicholasha had their
Speaker 1: own TV show? Yes, Well, there is this scene where
Speaker 1: Jessica Simpson is working on her new album and it's
Speaker 1: like it's like one of the episodes. It's like the
Speaker 1: whole storyline for her, right, And she's working on her
Speaker 1: new album and they submit it to the label, and
Speaker 1: the label gives their feedback to her and it's like, well,
Speaker 1: the songs are a little too challenging and maybe we
Speaker 1: can make them a little more singable to the average
Speaker 1: person or whatever. And then they cut to her in
Speaker 1: the studio and she's like, who over singing everything and
Speaker 1: you're like, dang, that's the label trying to herd like, Okay,
Speaker 1: maybe not so much. Maybe we could just tone it
Speaker 1: back a little bit. Very similar to Rob Gronkowski. How
Speaker 1: do you tell somebody, Hey, we like you, but can
Speaker 1: you stop being so much you Well, that's a deep
Speaker 1: cut by you, yella, yeah, peep cut. Yeah. I'm bringing heat,
Speaker 1: by the way, so am I. If you're watching on Peacock,
Speaker 1: you're welcome you are welcome. Yes, I did get a haircut,
Speaker 1: but that's not what you're welcome for. I have my
Speaker 1: tailor's Swift sweatshirt that my wife got me for Christmas.
Speaker 1: Horse sweatshirt. No, this is basically it's a tailor's swift
Speaker 1: if midnights, it's like an album promo. Yeah, sweatshirt, but
Speaker 1: my wife got it for a Christmas. It just arrived.
Speaker 1: I didn't ask for it, but I'm damn glad I
Speaker 1: got it. And so the package showed up on the
Speaker 1: front porch. Well, the puppy likes to go out and
Speaker 1: sometimes pick up the packages and then rip them open.
Speaker 1: So I looked outside yesterday and I saw what looked
Speaker 1: like a beach towel or something out there. I went
Speaker 1: out to get it. There's my Taylor Swift sweatshirt. And
Speaker 1: it had a bunch of confetti inside the package as well.
Speaker 1: And I said to my wife, well, I might have
Speaker 1: to wash this, but I'm wearing it. Meet Friday and Swifties.
Speaker 1: You're welcome to Tay. I walked in and I said
Speaker 1: to Paulie, don't ask, why ask? Why not? Just trying
Speaker 1: to protect you from you? No, No, I'm good because
Speaker 1: I had it on today and my wife goes, you're
Speaker 1: really going to wear it? I go, yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: that's why you got it. She goes, yeah, I didn't
Speaker 1: know you'd wear it on the show. It's an awesome sweatshirt.
Speaker 1: I hate, yes, hate hate, hate. All Right, so we
Speaker 1: got our poll question play of the day coming up.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be an interesting day to day. It feels
Speaker 1: like it feels like it's gonna be an interesting day
Speaker 1: where Jack Antonov is very happy right now. He's very
Speaker 1: proud of you, the music producer. Yes, yeah, yes, NFL
Speaker 1: lines here they are. I got, according to draft Kings
Speaker 1: Cowboys plus four, Bengals getting five and a half, Giants
Speaker 1: getting seven and a half, Jags getting eight and a
Speaker 1: half coming up this weekend. I started to wonder about
Speaker 1: this yesterday that Aaron Rodgers don't know what's happening. He
Speaker 1: is turned thirty nine. Tom Brady don't know what his
Speaker 1: future is, forty six years of age. We lost Roethlisberger
Speaker 1: and Breeze. You know, it seemed like we were in
Speaker 1: a pretty good position of the next wave of quarterbacks,
Speaker 1: and I started to think, who were the great quarterbacks?
Speaker 1: Not good, very good, great one that you say, or
Speaker 1: two that you say, three you say, they're great. Well,
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is now he's sort of the senior quarterback
Speaker 1: here at what age twenty seven? He's the great quarterback?
Speaker 1: Is Josh Allen great? Is he very good? Joe Burrow great,
Speaker 1: very good? Justin Herbert Jalen Hurtz, Trevor Lawrence. Now they're
Speaker 1: all young quarterbacks of the they're all under the age
Speaker 1: of thirty. Now, the last time this happened, It's only
Speaker 1: happened one time in the Super Bowl air all eight
Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks are under thirty. The only other time that
Speaker 1: that happened was two thousand and four. All the quarterbacks
Speaker 1: under the age of thirty were in the divisional round
Speaker 1: of the playoffs. You had Peyton Manning, Donovan McNabb, Add Pennington,
Speaker 1: you had Brady, Mark Boulger, Dante Colepepper, Michael Vick, Ben
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger was twenty two years of age. That's the last
Speaker 1: time that happened, The only time that that happened in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl era. Yeah, whoa st a day day.
Speaker 1: This is the stat of the day. Wondering if maybe
Speaker 1: we could get Taylor Swift to do a stat of
Speaker 1: the day for the show would be nice. Maybe I'll
Speaker 1: hit up somebody who could hit her up. Yes, Hu,
Speaker 1: that list you had it is like an interesting mix.
Speaker 1: There's a couple of first ballot Hall of famers and
Speaker 1: a couple of guys who are bounced around the league
Speaker 1: and up and down years. But that's why. How many
Speaker 1: great quarterbacks would you say, Josh Allen great quarterback consensus? Right?
Speaker 1: Mahomes obviously, Joe Burrow great consensus? I would think, yes, yeah, okay, yeah. See,
Speaker 1: aren't start of all of these dependent on how this
Speaker 1: weekend goes? Well? I was wondering about that. Justin Herbert
Speaker 1: m not that great this week? Is he great? Not
Speaker 1: right now? No? Okay? Uh? Jalen hurts if he loses
Speaker 1: to the Giants great, not that great? Okay. Trevor Lawrence
Speaker 1: beats Patrick Mahomes, does he become great? Yes? Thank you? Um.
Speaker 1: I think he would be. He would take another step
Speaker 1: up on the conversation, but he's still not. He's not
Speaker 1: in the same category as Josh Allen. If Dak Prescott
Speaker 1: beats the Niners in San Francisco, he's good. Oh, he's
Speaker 1: just good. He's good. He wouldn't be very good on
Speaker 1: the on the verge of being a top five quarterback, Well,
Speaker 1: some would argue he already is dan Um. Well, I
Speaker 1: think we've always said, you know, he's around eleven or twelve.
Speaker 1: That's where he's ranking. Because Roger and Brady are they great?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Emeritus, Yes, they're great, Ameritus, we'll
Speaker 1: grandfather them in. But how many great quarterbacks do we
Speaker 1: have in the NFL right now? Three polling? It feels
Speaker 1: like if Prescott won this weekend, he'd get the well,
Speaker 1: this is what we've been waiting for. Treatment, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He wouldn't get the yep, he's
Speaker 1: a lead or whatever. It'd be like, oh, this is
Speaker 1: what we've been talking about for five years. He finally
Speaker 1: did what we've expected, bloop. But how many quarterbacks do
Speaker 1: you go? Man? They should run the ball more, And
Speaker 1: that's what we say about the Cowboys. You don't say
Speaker 1: that about Mahomes, you don't say it about Joe Burrow,
Speaker 1: you don't say it about Josh Allen. Man, they need
Speaker 1: to run the ball more. They should be fifty fifty
Speaker 1: with the running pass. You normally don't do that in
Speaker 1: today's game with a quarterback and say that quarterback's great now,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. I thought they needed to run the ball more,
Speaker 1: be more balanced. Tom Brady had no running game whatsoever.
Speaker 1: So it's not like you go, you got to run
Speaker 1: the ball more. They couldn't. Yeah, Paul, I think Jalen
Speaker 1: Hurts is the toughest to quantify because his team is
Speaker 1: really good around him. He runs almost as much as
Speaker 1: he passes. He had the most designed runs in the
Speaker 1: league last year. It's working out fantastic this year. But
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see him in a game where he
Speaker 1: has to throw forty where he's down two touchdowns at half.
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's had a few, but I don't think
Speaker 1: he had forty attempts in a game this year. But
Speaker 1: not enough of a sample size from me with Jalen Hurts,
Speaker 1: I would need to see, like, is Danny Dimes on
Speaker 1: the verge of being a great quarterback? Is Lamar Jackson
Speaker 1: a great quarterback today? Probably not because you lose your
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator who was brought into basically rebuild that offense
Speaker 1: around Lamar Jackson, Greg Roman, and it worked. All of
Speaker 1: a sudden he steps down. How many offensive coordinators launst
Speaker 1: their job this year, it feels like there were at
Speaker 1: least eight or nine. And then you had the offensive
Speaker 1: coordinator with the Lions, Ben Johnson, who decided to go
Speaker 1: back to the lines, like if all else fails, the
Speaker 1: coach goes on, somebody's gotta go man the OC. We've
Speaker 1: had quite a few of them, Yes toime, how do
Speaker 1: you go back to the wife after you lose your
Speaker 1: OC job and you're trying to make plans for vacation,
Speaker 1: You're trying to take charge and they're like, you don't
Speaker 1: really know, You're not really good at this kind of
Speaker 1: planning stuff, and you know, maybe we should kind of
Speaker 1: have someone else figure out what we're gonna do with
Speaker 1: our lives going forward. Section rows What the oh was
Speaker 1: that someone that's used to being in charge of saying
Speaker 1: this is what we're gonna do, and this is how
Speaker 1: we're gonna run it, and then it kind of blows
Speaker 1: up and you lose your job. Maybe you do, you
Speaker 1: lose a little face in the in the household for
Speaker 1: making future plans with the family. That was a left
Speaker 1: witch term. Yeah's the thought. Okay, read it and weep.
Speaker 1: It could be a possible chief head like Kansas City Jackson. Oh,
Speaker 1: you're not capable of planning our family decisions. Yes, it's
Speaker 1: because you could fire yourself if it's a coordinator, a
Speaker 1: mean spirited wife. But there could be something out there
Speaker 1: hour No, definitely not. I've been looking at his two
Speaker 1: totally different entities. Oh my god, are you gonna die
Speaker 1: on this hill today? And I'm gonna stick with that
Speaker 1: all right. We're not going to the Bahamas. And you
Speaker 1: can't even get it right with what to do on
Speaker 1: third and six? Why we're not I don't even know
Speaker 1: what we want from the Crows. I mean, or he
Speaker 1: walks outside an trips you're not even coordinated exactly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how can you be an offensior coordinator very front of
Speaker 1: the other? Un coordinator? Blue, We're going to visit my
Speaker 1: mom in July, that's what's gonna happen. You're an offensive coordinator.
Speaker 1: How about we take a break. How about we take
Speaker 1: a break here, Our good buddy Albert Breer, Monday morning
Speaker 1: quarterback will join us, coming up. Get his thoughts on
Speaker 1: what's going on with Arolana. I said this two days ago,
Speaker 1: and it feels like everybody's in the deep end on Hey,
Speaker 1: Sean Payton I could see him with Carolina Panthers and
Speaker 1: maybe Tom Brady comes in. We'll ask Albert about that,
Speaker 1: and what are the odds that maybe he goes back
Speaker 1: to Tampa because they just fired their offensive coordinator. Well,
Speaker 1: talk to Albert Breer and also get his thoughts on
Speaker 1: what's going on with the Ravens. You fire the offensive
Speaker 1: coordinator or he steps down. Is that a good thing
Speaker 1: or bad thing for Lamar Jackson. We're back after this.

Speaker 1: Big announcement coming up in about fifteen minutes where we
Speaker 1: will be in Arizona. Our Super Bowl coverage gets phone
Speaker 1: calls come up. Was settled on a poll question, a
Speaker 1: Fritzie poll question and voted your own risk and h
Speaker 1: Tyler standing by taking your phone calls. Age seven seven
Speaker 1: three DP show. He's our good buddy, He's the money
Speaker 1: morning quarterback. He's Albert Breer joins us on the program.
Speaker 1: Help me understand what's going on with Baltimore. With Greg
Speaker 1: Roman stepping down. I don't know if that means you're fired,
Speaker 1: you part ways mutually, But what's this mean for Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson's future there? You know, I didn't know it means
Speaker 1: a whole lot on Lamar Jackson's future because that contract
Speaker 1: situation so complicated. Dan, I do think it shows a
Speaker 1: sign that they want It is a sign that they
Speaker 1: want to push their offense forward. And where Greg Roman
Speaker 1: I think did a lot and building the right sort
Speaker 1: of offense for Lamar Jackson coming out of college, the
Speaker 1: same way he built an offense for Colin Kaepernick and
Speaker 1: San Francisco. I think now the feeling is we need
Speaker 1: to move the passing game to another level, and you
Speaker 1: know that is probably what necessitated some staff changes, and
Speaker 1: so you know, look, it's not all Greg's fault. Like
Speaker 1: you know, they they lose Rashod Bateman for the year,
Speaker 1: who's shown a ton of promise as the first round
Speaker 1: pick from twenty twenty one, and the cupboard certainly wasn't
Speaker 1: full at receiver with Hollywood Brown having been traded before
Speaker 1: the season two. So look, I don't think it's all
Speaker 1: on Greg, But I do think it's an acknowledgement that
Speaker 1: they have to push the offense forward, which I think
Speaker 1: would appeal to Lamar. But again, like the complicated the
Speaker 1: contract situation itself is so complicated that I just I
Speaker 1: don't see that this solves or ruins anything, if that
Speaker 1: makes sense. But if Lamar Jenckson said, here's the deal,
Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty million dollars guaranteed, and I'm going
Speaker 1: to sign this contract, yeah, could it be that simple? Sure?
Speaker 1: The Ravens aren't doing that right now, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Like I mean, I think the divide here
Speaker 1: is is what you think it is, which is the
Speaker 1: Ravens are willing to go to the top of the
Speaker 1: quarterback market, but they want to do it on a
Speaker 1: more traditional quarterback contract, whereas Lamar wants a fully guaranteed
Speaker 1: deal and look, it's full. It's really easy to understand
Speaker 1: from Lamar's perspective if you think about it, He's just
Speaker 1: put his body on the line for five years and
Speaker 1: I'm precedented away for a quarterback. And if you're him
Speaker 1: and you've gone through that and you finished the last
Speaker 1: two years injured, if your team says, well, we want
Speaker 1: you to mitigate our injury risk three years from now
Speaker 1: by making the last couple of years of a new deal. No,
Speaker 1: I'm guaranteed. What are you gonna say to him? You're
Speaker 1: probably going to look at them sideways, you know. So
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know, you can understand why
Speaker 1: the Ravens would want to mitigate their list because the
Speaker 1: first three years in the league, you can look at
Speaker 1: Lamar and say it's risky to plan that way, but
Speaker 1: he wasn't getting hurt. Now he is getting hurt. He's
Speaker 1: finished the last two years injured. So because of that
Speaker 1: and all of that, it's, you know, a complicated situation,
Speaker 1: and I don't know that there's an easy fix here.
Speaker 1: I do think there's going to be a tell though,
Speaker 1: when we get to that period where the franchise tags
Speaker 1: are issue, which is the end of February beginning of March,
Speaker 1: right around the combine, the Ravens are gonna have to
Speaker 1: make a decision on whether or not to put the
Speaker 1: non exclusive tag on them or the exclusive tag. Exclusive
Speaker 1: tag is going to cost about forty five million dollars,
Speaker 1: the non exclusive tags about thirty million. They put the
Speaker 1: exclusive tag on them at that higher number, they're effectively
Speaker 1: taking them off the market, so no one else can
Speaker 1: talk to them. And at that point it behooves them
Speaker 1: to get a long term deal done because they want
Speaker 1: to lower that cap number. If they put the non
Speaker 1: exclusive tag on them, things get a lot more interesting
Speaker 1: because then other teams can't It's not just that other
Speaker 1: teams can talk to them. Other teams at that point
Speaker 1: can sign them to an offer sheet and have them
Speaker 1: for two first round picks. So I think that's the
Speaker 1: next real checkpoint in this whole saga. Byron Leftwich getting
Speaker 1: fired in Tampa, more likely or less likely that Tom
Speaker 1: Brady would go back or does this not have any
Speaker 1: impact whatsoever on Brady. I don't think it's likely Brady
Speaker 1: goes back there, but it makes it more likely, I
Speaker 1: would say. I do think there are some things about
Speaker 1: what the way the offense worked this year. You know
Speaker 1: that frustrated Tom Brady, and you know part of it
Speaker 1: is again personnel. You know, you lose Ryan Jensen for
Speaker 1: the year, you lose Alex Kappa and free agency, Ali
Speaker 1: Marpett retires. You know their tackles got banged up over
Speaker 1: the course of the year. There's no question that personnel
Speaker 1: has something to do with it. But I don't know that.
Speaker 1: You know, Tom Brady believes in Byron Leftwich the same
Speaker 1: way he believed in Josh McDaniels, the same way he
Speaker 1: believed in Billy O'Brien, And so I do think, you know,
Speaker 1: hearing Rick Strouds say Billy O'Brien would be a candidate
Speaker 1: to be the next offensive coordinator in Todd Bowles, I
Speaker 1: think I think Rick said that last week. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's a carrot for Tom Brady, you know. So I
Speaker 1: think which way they go with their offensive coordinator higher
Speaker 1: will probably be a pretty good indication of how realistic
Speaker 1: they think bringing Tom Brady's is back. But I think
Speaker 1: o'brady's playing in twenty twenty three and all likelihoods somewhere else.
Speaker 1: Help me understand the Raider's logic that you say goodbye
Speaker 1: to Derek Cart in front of everybody, now you're open
Speaker 1: for business at that position. Normally, if you do something
Speaker 1: like that, you have an idea who you're bringing in. Yep, right,
Speaker 1: they have options though. That's the thing is they've got
Speaker 1: two guys who've got an extensive background in their system,
Speaker 1: and Tom Brady and Jimmy Garoppolo, who both those guys
Speaker 1: have a freeway to free agency right now, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like those guys like that, there's no
Speaker 1: franchise tags, there's there's nothing to stop those guys from
Speaker 1: getting to the market. And Josh McDaniels has a relationship
Speaker 1: with both of those guys, and so, you know, I
Speaker 1: think you have a pretty good idea that there's going
Speaker 1: to be an option out there for you. And you know,
Speaker 1: I know I've used this example with you before, Dan,
Speaker 1: but it's sort of the Alex Smith in Kansas City situation,
Speaker 1: you know where I think when they signed Derek Carter
Speaker 1: that contract, the logic behind it was, we're going to
Speaker 1: turn him into our Alex Smith, and that would be
Speaker 1: that that would mean he's sort of your long term
Speaker 1: bridge where he's going to be your quarterback for the
Speaker 1: next few years. You can be competitive with it in there,
Speaker 1: you can build around him, you can continue to construct
Speaker 1: a roster that can support a young quarterback, and then
Speaker 1: when you find somebody thinks really special, you can strike
Speaker 1: and then trade the veteran a way. I just think
Speaker 1: they looked at Derek Carr and there were you know,
Speaker 1: issues with toughness, issues with competitiveness, issues with getting the
Speaker 1: most out of the people around him that they had
Speaker 1: that caused them to sort of look around and seeing
Speaker 1: those two guys potentially being out there and now you know,
Speaker 1: absolutely going to be out there on the market, you
Speaker 1: say to yourself, there's a better long term bridge out
Speaker 1: there for us than Derek Carr, especially at the number
Speaker 1: that he's going to, that that he's commanding right now.
Speaker 1: He's the Monday Morning Quarterback Albert Brewer. You can go
Speaker 1: to Monday Morning Quarterback dot com. Sean Payton more likely
Speaker 1: to take a job this year or go back into TV.
Speaker 1: I sort of think he's going to go back into
Speaker 1: the TV UM. You know. I think there's a sort
Speaker 1: of a day to day thing with him. You know,
Speaker 1: I just talk about all of these openings and but
Speaker 1: I mean, like here's the thing is, like I know,
Speaker 1: like two things that are really important to him are
Speaker 1: geography and quarterback, right, and like I think staying close
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles would have been ideal for him, which
Speaker 1: is why the Chargers kept coming up, because the Chargers
Speaker 1: emphatically check both those boxes. And then you know, you
Speaker 1: hear his comments which he made publicly about there being
Speaker 1: some organizations where you just can't win, right, and how
Speaker 1: the quarterback affects that, And like Arizona and Denver, Kenny
Speaker 1: win there, you know, because like you look at the
Speaker 1: quarterback contracts in those two places and it's it's not like, okay,
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna give this I'm gonna take this guy
Speaker 1: out for a test drive for a year and then
Speaker 1: get rid of him. Like those contracts sort of locked
Speaker 1: those guys into those franchises for the next few years.
Speaker 1: And like Sean Payton at his age might only have
Speaker 1: one more shot at this. So does he want to
Speaker 1: hitch his future to Russell Wilson and Denver? Does he
Speaker 1: want to hitch his future Kyler Murray and Arizona. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure that he does. And I actually think the
Speaker 1: Houston situation might be more interesting, you know, like because
Speaker 1: you get to pick your own quarterbacks there, and look
Speaker 1: like part of it is you're dealing with more unknown
Speaker 1: in Houston, but you pick your own quarterback there. You've
Speaker 1: got two first round picks in each of the next
Speaker 1: two drafts. Now, maybe you have to give up one
Speaker 1: of those to get them, but you've still got a
Speaker 1: lot of them, you know, and in Denver or Arizona
Speaker 1: you'd be giving them up and then you wouldn't have
Speaker 1: much left. You know, you have cap space, you have
Speaker 1: some young talent. The team was competitive at the end
Speaker 1: of the year. Like I just look at it, like
Speaker 1: like I'm if I'm Sean Payton right now, I'm probably
Speaker 1: studying Bryce Young, you know what I mean. Like, I'm
Speaker 1: probably looking pretty hard at Bryce Young and saying to myself,
Speaker 1: how much do I like this kid? Because if I
Speaker 1: can draft him into Houston. Now, I've got him on
Speaker 1: a rookie contract at a fraction of what I'd be
Speaker 1: paying Wilson in Denver or Murray in Arizona, and I
Speaker 1: have him on that contract for the next few years,
Speaker 1: and I have all these picks to build around him.
Speaker 1: I just think, like Houston, to me, there's just something
Speaker 1: that's more interesting about that situation. You know, if I'm
Speaker 1: Sean Payton, and again, you're doing it without the certainty
Speaker 1: a quarterback, which uncertainty on other parts of the roster,
Speaker 1: which you know, like you're gonna have to get some
Speaker 1: draft picks, right, You're gonna have to get some free agents, right.
Speaker 1: But I think there's an intriguing situation to sort of
Speaker 1: build the franchise in your own image if you want to.
Speaker 1: The other thing is like, you know, if you sit
Speaker 1: and wait and you decide to go do TV for
Speaker 1: another year, maybe that Charger's job is open in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four. If you were the Chargers, would you have
Speaker 1: made that move? You know, I really like Brandon Staley
Speaker 1: as a as a as a coach. I think he's
Speaker 1: got potential, So you know, I'm hesitant to say yes.
Speaker 1: The only reason why is because I do think when
Speaker 1: you hire somebody at Brandon Staley's age, it like you
Speaker 1: have to give that guy some runaway. He was only
Speaker 1: a coordinator for one year, so like all the game
Speaker 1: management stuff and everything else, he's still learning it and
Speaker 1: he's really really smart, and like, I think having a
Speaker 1: chance to go get the coordinator higher right. Remember he
Speaker 1: wanted to hire Kevin O'Connell first when he got to
Speaker 1: the Chargers, and like, by the looks of it, that
Speaker 1: would have been a home run higher. The Rams blocked
Speaker 1: O'Connell from going, So you give him another chance of
Speaker 1: getting that right, And I think there's a chance that
Speaker 1: like Staley could wind up looking like a home run
Speaker 1: in five years from now. The problem is that Sean
Speaker 1: Payton's a home run right now, you know what I mean. Like,
Speaker 1: and Sean Payton with Justin Herbert really sounds like it
Speaker 1: could be a home run right now. And you look
Speaker 1: at like the constructor that roster, and Justin's young, but
Speaker 1: the rest of that roster, like it's all guys that
Speaker 1: are in the middle of the prime of their careers,
Speaker 1: you know, like Mike Williams, Keenan Allen, Joey Bosta, Derwin James, Like,
Speaker 1: you're in a championship window right now. So I think
Speaker 1: that's the question if I'm a Charger, if I'm one
Speaker 1: of the Spanos, is like, that's my question, is like
Speaker 1: I really believe in Brandon Staley maybe, and I you know,
Speaker 1: I really believe he's gonna grow into something special. But
Speaker 1: given what I have today right now, can I sell
Speaker 1: out what we have right now for you know, what
Speaker 1: it might for what we might have in five years?
Speaker 1: If that makes sense. What's the NFL's end game with
Speaker 1: all these games in Europe. I think at one point
Speaker 1: they wanted to put a team over there. I had
Speaker 1: a number of people in the like at the executive
Speaker 1: level in the NFL office tell me that it was
Speaker 1: initially a fifteen year plan when they started the International
Speaker 1: Series in two thousand and seven, and so that would
Speaker 1: put us right now, like right now is when you'd
Speaker 1: have a team in London. I think the logistical issue
Speaker 1: has gotten a way of that. I like, I know
Speaker 1: at one point they even studied air travel to see
Speaker 1: if there are advances coming in air travel that might
Speaker 1: alleviate some of the logistical issues. But I just think
Speaker 1: like the idea of having like Seattle play in a
Speaker 1: playoff game in London in a one off sort of
Speaker 1: situation that they can't plan around was going to make
Speaker 1: it too difficult. But I think they want to continue
Speaker 1: to grow those markets in Germany and England, and you know,
Speaker 1: I think the next couple of frontiers probably Brazil, Spain,
Speaker 1: Like I think those are coming. And the goal, really
Speaker 1: Dan is to continue to grow revenue. I mean, that's
Speaker 1: that's what it is at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: you know. And I think when when Roger became commissioner,
Speaker 1: there was this feeling that they had gotten done growing up,
Speaker 1: like with the Constructional League, what it was they'd gotten
Speaker 1: done growing up, so they needed to start growing out
Speaker 1: and growing inventory. And so you know that's seventeen games,
Speaker 1: that's Thursday night football. That's putting fourteen teams rather than
Speaker 1: twelve in the playoffs, that's going back to Los Angeles
Speaker 1: and adding the two teams, and that ultimately is going international.
Speaker 1: It's adding inventory to what you already have. What about
Speaker 1: Mexico City given the proximity, or you know, a team
Speaker 1: in Canada. Yeah, I think if the money was there,
Speaker 1: they would have done it already. Um, you know, it's funny,
Speaker 1: like I think we all. I think you'd agree with this.
Speaker 1: Germany is a much better market for football than the UK, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: you'd agree with that. Like you know, they've actually been
Speaker 1: like players like Bjorn Werner and it's a Dash and
Speaker 1: Vollmer that have come there. There's the history with the
Speaker 1: military bases there. Michael Strahan weren't there, you know, and
Speaker 1: like how American football has actually been played there. NFL
Speaker 1: Europe all the teams were in Germany. The reason they
Speaker 1: didn't go to Germany the first. The reason they went
Speaker 1: to London first is because they thought there was more
Speaker 1: money to be made in London. And you know, like
Speaker 1: whether they were right or wrong. That was always the feeling.
Speaker 1: And so, you know, I think the group of owners
Speaker 1: that are, you know, running the show now, they're about
Speaker 1: the bottom line, and you know, for one reason or another,
Speaker 1: they didn't feel like the money there was enough money
Speaker 1: to be made in Mexico City or Toronto to put
Speaker 1: a team there full time. Otherwise they would have done it.
Speaker 1: And they did feel like there was promise for that
Speaker 1: in London, like you put one or two teams in
Speaker 1: London and now you're really growing the pie. I don't
Speaker 1: think that they felt like adding a team in Mexico
Speaker 1: City or Toronto would grow the pie enough for them
Speaker 1: to change the math on everything and do all the
Speaker 1: things that would be needed to do it. You're upset
Speaker 1: special this weekend is and Cincinnati's not an upset? Is it? Okay? Surprise?
Speaker 1: I had the Bengals winning. I'd keep an eye in
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I just they looked like a different team
Speaker 1: on Monday night, you know. And I really believe in
Speaker 1: the Niners roster, of the Niners coaching staff, Like if
Speaker 1: we get into a critical situation at the end of
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, is a seventh round rookie going to
Speaker 1: be able to steer the ship, you know. So I
Speaker 1: just I look at all the games. I think all
Speaker 1: the games have potential for upset, like you know, but
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are the team, Like I sort of look
Speaker 1: at them and did they find something in Tampa? You know?
Speaker 1: And you got all these people doubting them now and
Speaker 1: there's talent on that roster, and Dak feels doubted and
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy feels doubted, and they've been told for three
Speaker 1: years how everybody's jobs are on the line. I just
Speaker 1: there's part of me that wonders, like, you know, if
Speaker 1: if they can create a little havoc for Brock pretty
Speaker 1: early in that game, and they've got the guys to
Speaker 1: do it with Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence, could they
Speaker 1: get that game into the fourth quarter where maybe you
Speaker 1: would bet on Dak Prescott pulling through in the last
Speaker 1: five minutes over and it comes down to a field
Speaker 1: goal by Brett Marr who missed four. Actually yeah, well hey,
Speaker 1: it would be a great redemption, know right, So he
Speaker 1: can brother on him on the list with McCarthy and
Speaker 1: Dak as being disrespected, right, can Brock pretty play his
Speaker 1: way out of being the starter next year. I think
Speaker 1: that's going to sort of depend on opportunity, you know,
Speaker 1: Like I think like if they have the opportunity to
Speaker 1: sign Tom Brady, they take it with the roster that
Speaker 1: they have. You know, um, what does Trey Lance look
Speaker 1: like coming back off the injury? You know, Jimmy Garoppolo
Speaker 1: is not coming back. But I'd say that those are
Speaker 1: the two like variables. Do you think is a real possibility? Huh?
Speaker 1: Do you think Brady's a real possibility? In I think that.
Speaker 1: I think the Niners have left that door open since
Speaker 1: deciding not to do it in twenty twenty, So, like,
Speaker 1: I don't I think it'd be a consideration for the Niners.
Speaker 1: I think they certainly meet on it. They'd certainly talk
Speaker 1: about it. Um, I think it would absolutely be on
Speaker 1: the table. I mean, what's great about party? You know?
Speaker 1: Like and I think this what's gonna be so interesting
Speaker 1: about party is you know, I had somebody tell me
Speaker 1: this that you know, and I know the Niners like
Speaker 1: this about him coming out of college was and this
Speaker 1: is something you have to do in the NFL at times,
Speaker 1: like how many times it will hire at Iowa State?
Speaker 1: Did he have to be the best player on the
Speaker 1: field for them to win. You know, like it's different
Speaker 1: than like a mac Jones or a Justin Fields or
Speaker 1: you know, even a Trevor Lawrence, like coming out of
Speaker 1: their schools. Like how many times did brock Purty have
Speaker 1: to be the best player on the field to win
Speaker 1: at Iowa State every weekend? Every weekend? You know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Like so so, like you know, when you're
Speaker 1: talking about a quarterback's ability to maybe level up and
Speaker 1: be equal to the circumstances. I think that's what they
Speaker 1: see in brock Purty right now. Like I think internally
Speaker 1: that's what they see in brock Purty right now. And
Speaker 1: I think that there's real intrigue in the idea of
Speaker 1: building around him. And I don't think it's the worst
Speaker 1: idea in the world to look at this and say,
Speaker 1: maybe we should go into the spring and throw the
Speaker 1: doors open and have Brock Purty and Trey Lance battle
Speaker 1: it out. What the best man win? Yeah, well, they're cheap,
Speaker 1: you know, with their contracts. Certainly Purty is you could
Speaker 1: bring in Brady for a year and have Purty Vias
Speaker 1: understudy there. Right, Let those two guys compete to be
Speaker 1: the number two. Have a great weekend. Always great to
Speaker 1: talk to you. Thank you for your time. All right,

Speaker 1: where the Barry Bonds they get man who homered for me. Yes,
Speaker 1: when I when I was on the public address and
Speaker 1: we were doing our show, and I said to Paul,
Speaker 1: can you see if I can do a Barry Bonds,
Speaker 1: you know, introduction, And so Paul said to the giants, Hey,
Speaker 1: could Dan do a play by or do the introduction
Speaker 1: for Barry Bonds. And I said, you know, I'll leave
Speaker 1: the radio show or do the that on the radio show.
Speaker 1: So I did it simultaneously and all betting number twenty
Speaker 1: five left fielder, a man who homered for me and
Speaker 1: his lasted bat say a load of berry. And you

Speaker 1: phone calls here Mark in Kentucky, Hi, Mark, what's on
Speaker 1: your mind today? Hey? Dan? I was calling with some
Speaker 1: suggested things for Seaton to do on his road trip.
Speaker 1: I've driven across Nebraska and Kansas on road trips with
Speaker 1: my kids on the way to Yosemite and Yellowstone, and
Speaker 1: my suggestion is that he needs to get a lot
Speaker 1: of books on tape and some conversation topic cards once
Speaker 1: he gets outside of Lincoln for him in the front. Ya,
Speaker 1: that's a shot, Thank you, Mark. Wow, little little parts
Speaker 1: there on the site seeing apparently. Okay, yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: Scott in Illinois, Hi Scott, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 1: Hey Dan, thank you taking my call. About eight or
Speaker 1: ten years ago, we were doing a job in Cedar
Speaker 1: to Lake, Iowa. The day the music died. They got
Speaker 1: a small museum where Buddy Holly and Ritchie Vallens They're
Speaker 1: plane crashed in Cedar Lake. They had a small museum there.
Speaker 1: You might have to do some research see if it's
Speaker 1: still there, the hours of it. I don't want to
Speaker 1: give you guys any misinformation, but it's definitely you know,
Speaker 1: not a lot of people have been there, so it's
Speaker 1: you guys are rock and roll people, something worth seeing.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you. Scott Berry in Santa Fe
Speaker 1: Hi Berry, Good morning, Fellow's a good morning chat row.
Speaker 1: I wanted to invite Seaton and the French kids to
Speaker 1: make their last stop before Phoenix in beautiful Santa Fe.
Speaker 1: I will introduce them to the green chili enchilada and
Speaker 1: frudo pie at Tom Sita's. Then it's onto a couple
Speaker 1: of local breweries for some beers and wake up the
Speaker 1: next morning and I'll thank you for the best breakfast
Speaker 1: taco and burritos you ever had at Ti Sophia's. Then
Speaker 1: it's a straight shot to Phoenix. All right, Well, wow,
Speaker 1: that's quite a quite a welcoming party. That wouldn't want
Speaker 1: to go visit Barry? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I would go.
Speaker 1: If I didn't have to visit with Barry, I'd go
Speaker 1: to all those places. I kind of feel like if
Speaker 1: we head through Santa Fe, I think that that's going
Speaker 1: to happen, but I feel like we would. It would
Speaker 1: be like, uh, like Oceans eleven or something with him,
Speaker 1: Like we're all just in like bathrobes and cigars and
Speaker 1: whiskey at eight am, because it's like, who's gonna tell us, no, boys,
Speaker 1: this is the good life, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: What was Barry's and stuff? When Barry moved to Santa Fe.
Speaker 1: I do what I want, when I want, with whoever
Speaker 1: I want from some them like something like that. All right,
