Speaker 1: questions for an hour. Most under ready to most over ready?

10
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 1: The best player? This player, that player. So let's start

11
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: with us. First of all, it's great to see you.

12
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,959
Speaker 1: We were talking during the break. You're two and one

13
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: against Spurs. You're two and one against OKAC. All my

14
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: NBA guys they always say there's two there's two seasons,

15
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: and the and the athletic teams that have a closer

16
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: and a good coach, that's the dangerous team in the postseason.

17
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: And my guys are all saying, watch Minnesota in the postseason.

18
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: They're built for the playoffs. So you've done well against

19
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: Wemby and OKC. Let's first start with this. Jamck and

20
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: I talked about it the other day. He had a

21
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: game against Detroit Chris. He didn't even score until late,

22
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: and he controlled it, steals, blocks, rebounds. First time you

23
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: played against him, how do you defend Wenby, what did

24
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: you do well?

25
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 3: It's the defending is just I think half the problem.

26
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 3: It's that when he's on defense, it just he just

27
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 3: changes the geometry of the floor. Guys don't even want

28
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: to be themselves. They don't attack the paint in the

29
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 3: same manner. He can cover so much ground on a

30
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 3: close out. You know, he can be in a help

31
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 3: position and and and still be you know, guarding two

32
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 3: or three players. It's I've never seen anything like that,

33
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 3: with his length, his anticipation and if he has his

34
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: three three ball going on.

35
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 4: Offense, he's unguardable.

36
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 3: And you know, we played him in an as an

37
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 3: epic game in January as a him and Anthony both

38
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 3: went for almost fifty and it was a lot of

39
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 3: fun to watch. And he you know, he had his

40
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 3: three point shot going that night, and if that's going,

41
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 3: it's you know, I don't know what you do with

42
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 3: them in basketball.

43
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: For a long time, Sga has been banged up. He's

44
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: one of the weaker defensive players. If I said to you,

45
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: three or four best defenses you've ever seen in the

46
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: NBA does okay, see.

47
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 3: Qualify well last year's okay see version for sure. This year,

48
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 3: as you said, some of their better defenders Caruso, certainly

49
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 3: Jalen Williams.

50
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 4: They've been they've been hurt all year.

51
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'll tell you who's who's really good defensively there. Well,

52
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 3: both their bigs are, but Hartenstein has outstanding field defensively,

53
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 3: and Chet challenges everything. So and all their guys guard

54
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: you know, even Shay. You know he's going to execute

55
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 3: the game plan, compete on the ball, do the things

56
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 3: they need him to do to be really good. So

57
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 3: I would you know. They were historically great defense, no doubt,

58
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 3: and they earned that.

59
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, So listen last night. You know I always say this.

60
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: I remember there's a video years ago a Peyton Manning

61
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: and Jeff Saturday yelling at each other, and I'm like,

62
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: guys and fans freak out. And I'm always like, I've

63
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: watched Brady Rip coaches in the middle of a game

64
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 1: or late game. It's pro sports, it's live. So you

65
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: and Aunt go back and forth. Last night, He's like,

66
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: I don't care. I'm good with it. But when you

67
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: get into situations like that you're like, hey, I need

68
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: you a dish. He wants to shoot, Like, how he's

69
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: your star? Take me through it? Is it difficult for

70
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: you as a coach?

71
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, listen, we're both fiery competitors. It's been

72
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: part of our part of our relationships since day one.

73
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 3: And you know, we have a phenomenally talented player who

74
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 3: makes great shots, and he's a closer and he's taken

75
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: major strides in that department and we're lucky to have him.

76
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 3: And you know, this is not the first game winning

77
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: shot that he's made for us this season. He's but

78
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 3: you know, he also has the burden of responsibility of

79
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: making his teammates better and and making the right play,

80
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 3: and that's what we're preaching to him all the time.

81
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 4: He's really emotional. I'm emotional. You know.

82
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: We say these things to each other and we move on.

83
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: We don't take it personally. You know, I didn't. I

84
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 3: didn't think that the comments after the.

85
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 4: Game were mean spirited.

86
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 3: I thought he was just kind of joking around and

87
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: taking you know, we just jab back and forth with

88
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 3: each other, and it's you know, as you know, calling

89
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 3: these guys are super competitive and and they're very prideful

90
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 3: and sometimes you got to stoke that fire and sometimes

91
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: it comes back on you.

92
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 4: But that's part of it.

93
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw Andy Reid and Travis Kelcey. I thought

94
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: they were I thought Andy was gonna throw a headset

95
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: at him. I'm like, it's like, folks, this is life,

96
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: it's pro sports.

97
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 5: You know.

98
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: It's one funny. The NFL films does this all the time.

99
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 1: They'll mike people and then like a year later you'll

100
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: hear it and you hear Belichick and Parcels and there.

101
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: It's like, guys, it's live. It's it's you're on a clock,

102
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: you're on national TV. Get over it. So one of

103
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: the things that I think is pretty clear, and I

104
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: think the NBA is right. The w NBA doesn't they

105
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: really let physical play in the regular season, so their

106
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: stars get banged up and aren't always available for the postseason.

107
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: In the NBA, you know they're gonna whistle stuff in

108
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 1: the regular season and then they let you guys play

109
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: in the postseason. And I mean when you lose players.

110
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: Tatum gets hurt, Halliburton, what do you do as a

111
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: coach because you're a team that can be physical. Detroit's

112
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: a team they are physical, knicks aren't necessarily as physical.

113
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: What do you do to kind of ramp your team

114
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: up into prepare for basketball? Because but the time it's

115
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: late April and May, Chris, it looks different, it's officiated different,

116
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: it feels different. I mean you it comes through the television.

117
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 1: How do you prep a team for that?

118
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a great point in coming out of the

119
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 3: All Star Game is usually that line of demarcation.

120
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 4: And we've just played a number of physical games.

121
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 3: So in terms of getting us ready for the playoffs,

122
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 3: I do like that, and we've got to respond like

123
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 3: we're not always the hit first physical team, but when

124
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 3: somebody does hit, we do get we get back into

125
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 3: it with them, and that's good to see. You know,

126
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: you're right, the playoffs are just another animal altogether. You

127
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 3: got to be able to play with through physicality. With physicality,

128
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 3: you got to be smart with the physicality and referees.

129
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 3: You know, at that point in time, you're also getting

130
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 3: the best referees who can manage that physicality, which which

131
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 3: cleans up the product too.

132
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 1: The you know, we were talking during the break, and

133
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,599
Speaker 1: this is always fun. I said, Okay, give me a

134
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: guy in the NBA, and everybody makes good money, so

135
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: it's not a salary question. And I said to you,

136
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: j Mack has a question. He goes, who in the

137
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: NBA do you as a coach do you look at

138
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: as a player and think, boy, that guy is good

139
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: And we don't talk about him on shows like this

140
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: or Steven a show or somebody show or Nick Wright show.

141
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: But a guy that you look at and you think, man,

142
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: that guy deserves pub he's a big time player.

143
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

144
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 3: Well, I mean I'm going to start right on our

145
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 3: own team. Jade McDaniels. I think Jayden McDaniels has become

146
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 3: one of the best two way players.

147
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 4: In the league.

148
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 3: He's always been great defensively. I think his defense has

149
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: gotten better. I don't think it's enough credit for being

150
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 3: the level of defender that he actually is. His offense

151
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 3: is taking major steps this year. We can now give

152
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 3: him the ball. He can get buckets on demand. His

153
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 3: three point shot is up over forty percent, his rebounding,

154
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 3: his usage, his assists. These are all the steps that

155
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 3: we needed him to take to be a better team

156
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 3: this year, and he's done it. So he's one of

157
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 3: the most underrated players in the league. He plays in

158
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 3: the shadow of Anthony and Rudy defensively and Anthony offensively,

159
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 3: and Julius Randall. But he's just as important to any

160
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 3: as anybody else to our team.

161
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: So Jamack and I got into a argument the other day.

162
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: I have no problem. I think you have to play

163
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: sixty five games. This is to attack load management to

164
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: be to win certain awards. And j Max like, well,

165
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: then kid Cunningham is gonna win MVP. And I'm like,

166
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm good with that. I mean, their offense without him

167
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: is I mean, it's just it's non existent, like he

168
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: is the offense. That's why I don't think they're a

169
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: title team. They're too young, they're a little unbalanced offensively,

170
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: they're physical. He's a star. So my argument is, how

171
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: could Jokich be the most valuable player in a league

172
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: when he's less valuable to his own team than he

173
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: was a year ago. And I love Jokic. So if

174
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: I said to you, you got to play sixty five

175
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 1: games cade Cunningham's the MVP, how does that sit with you?

176
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 3: He's certainly having an MVP season. I'm you know, I'm

177
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 3: fine with that. My only counter would be that if

178
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 3: somebody like Jokic can play in only fifty games and

179
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 3: they can still be second or third in the West.

180
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 3: You know, in what he's doing on the floor when

181
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 3: they're on their floor, it's you know, he.

182
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 4: Still has to be accounted for.

183
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 3: I mean, he's great, and it's definitely going to carry

184
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 3: a team all by itself to fifty five wins or

185
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 3: nearly every season. But yeah, I think I'm all for

186
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 3: what the league's done to try to counter the tanking

187
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 3: it is. There's going to be some unfortunate cases. There

188
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 3: just is going to be, you know, But I don't

189
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 3: think saying that kid cunning him as an MVP is

190
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 3: is saying that he's not worthy.

191
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 4: I think he's had a season.

192
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: You know, they got one of the best records in

193
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 3: the league, and if not the best record in win

194
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 3: percentage wise.

195
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, if I said to you, Aunt Edwards obviously is

196
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: three point shot is much better. But you know, I

197
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 1: think you know, the difference between college and pro is.

198
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: At the pro level, if you don't play defense, you're

199
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: getting eaten alive. You're gonna give up twenty seven points.

200
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: On the other end, how much with Aunt Edwards defense

201
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: is it coaching listening? How much has been his commitment

202
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: to it because you you know, there are some stars

203
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: in this league. We all know the Lucas story where

204
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: he's a liability. How do you get highly compensated, gifted

205
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 1: offensive guys. What's the secret to make them play defense

206
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 1: where you don't get any credit. It's hard, you can

207
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: get burned constantly, but it's hugely important.

208
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, you know, first off, Anthony is certainly

209
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 3: not a liability defensively.

210
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 4: I think he has an.

211
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 3: Opportunity and talent to be elite at that end of

212
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 3: the floor. And there are times when he's just takes

213
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 3: over defensively, whether it's taking on a matchup or making plays.

214
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 3: You know, some of the plays he makes latent games

215
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: defensively or spectacular nature. We've seen a lot of really

216
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:16,319
Speaker 3: good blocks, great blocks, timely blocks, And for me, it's it's,

217
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: you know, it's kind of like, what's the pathway to

218
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 3: being great?

219
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 4: Next?

220
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 3: What's the next step? And I think he can be

221
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 3: the best two way player in the league. And I

222
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 3: think that's his platform for being an MVP candidate. Uh

223
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 3: And you know, he has a huge load offensively, and

224
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 3: you know, one of the things that you know, all

225
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 3: these players here when they come into the league. And

226
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 3: there's some truth to it. I've never scored thirty points

227
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 3: in the NBA. It must be must be hard to

228
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 3: do on a night tonight basis, And you can only

229
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 3: put your energy certain places at certain times. But you

230
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 3: can't just, you know, punt on defense just because you

231
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 3: use a lot of energy on offense. I think there's

232
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 3: also a way to maybe I'm not talking about just

233
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 3: with ant, but in general, you know, be a little

234
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 3: more efficient on offense, so you can be a little

235
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 3: better on defense too. So we try not to buy

236
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 3: into those mantras. And you know, the great thing about

237
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 3: Ann is always he always meets the high moments and

238
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 3: when we need a most you know, he'll step up

239
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 3: and play defense. But coming down the stretch here, we've

240
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 3: asked him to be better defensively, and so far he's responded.

241
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 1: So I moved to Chicago from Los Angeles, and everybody

242
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 1: in LA is like, oh, you're going to move back.

243
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: It's just too cold, And I'm like, it's called a jacket.

244
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: I grew up in Seattle, I know a wet and cold.

245
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: So you live in the only place in America colder

246
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 1: than where I live. You live in Minneapolis, and guys Jmak,

247
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: who's wearing his Luca jersey on the beach six days

248
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: a week, tell him the advantages to being in cold weather.

249
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: Minneapolis has smart, civic minded people. It's are you fine

250
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis with the weather?

251
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 4: I'm fine Minneapolis.

252
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 3: I look forward to the season, seasonal change, Yeah, add

253
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 3: some variety. Yeah, what you find is where I've lived

254
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 3: all over the world. And one thing I've always impressed

255
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 3: me about wherever I've lived with people is that they

256
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 3: lean into what's going on around him.

257
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 4: I didn't even know snowshoeing was something people did.

258
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 3: I thought it was I thought it was just something

259
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 3: people did in cartoons. But apparently it's an activity. And

260
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: you know, people are outside in the winter, enjoying the

261
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 3: winter for what it offers, and whether it be cross

262
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 3: country skiing, playing hockey, all these things. You know, very

263
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 3: active people in Minnesota, and they enjoy all seasons including winter.

264
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going ice fishing and Tuesday. So I love

265
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: this stuff. Hey, Chris, it's great to see it. Congrats

Speaker 4: Thanks Carl, I appreciate you having me on You.

270

Speaker 1: Bet he was coaching and they were winning last night

271
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: as Aunt hit a big shot down the stretch. NFL

272
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: Combine this weekend, j Mac I was talking to Middlecoff

273
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: about this last night in the podcast. I watch less

274
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 1: of it now than I did like three years ago.

275
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: I think a lot of it is I talk to

276
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: a lot of different people, and it's I mean, when

277
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: you have the Rams and the Jags playoff teams being

278
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: like we're I'm not going to send people. I don't

279
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 1: think it's terribly authentic. I think all the interviews are prepped.

280
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: Everybody's in the world's best shape, you know. I I

281
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: think you can get it all done at Pro Days.

Speaker 6: online obviously the forty yard dash, Yeah, what do I

286
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 6: need to watch some guy putting up bench press like

287
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 6: thirty reps for like, there's just no value there. And

288
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 6: plus people overreact to this stuff. Sonny styles. You know,

289
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 6: nobody drafts a linebacker early, but Sonny styles tested off

290
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 6: the chart yesterday, right, unbelievable, maybe the greatest performance ever.

291
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 6: And now there's like, do the Jets take him at two?

292
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 6: Let's slow down, guys, Like, I know we're desperate for football,

293
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 6: but like, hey, maybe let's take in the Timberwolves Clippers

Speaker 1: Michigan in Champagne against Illinois. These are teams that could

299

Speaker 1: make the final four Minnesota. These are four level teams.

300
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,199

Speaker 8: Away Jack with the news. Turn on the news. This

317
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 8: is the headline news. Start with the Dallas Cowboys. This

318
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 8: Brandon Aubrey situation, Colin very interesting. So the uh, he's

319
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 8: a restricted free agent. Cowboys made an offer to.

320
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 6: Make him the highest paid kicker in the league at

321
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 6: seven and a half million, but reports indicate Aubrey's looking

322
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 6: for ten million a year Colin ten. Then Aubrey went

323
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 6: on Instagram to shoot down those reports, saying it's fake.

324
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 7: Now we know he's one of the best kickers in

325
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 7: the league.

326
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 6: He has hit on unbelievably eighty eight percent of his

327
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 6: attempts over the last three years.

328
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 7: I mean, he's got to ll you he's amazing. But

329
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 7: ten million a year for a kicker.

330
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: I So I've always had this argument, the highest scoring

331
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: player on teams is often the kicker. In no other

332
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: sport would you be outraged to draft a kicker or

333
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: pay him ten million. Are you telling me in an

334
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: era when yard field goals are fairly common, that that

335
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: kicker is not worth ten million dollars?

336
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 7: Well, the highest kicker.

337
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: If a kicker wins you two games a year of

338
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: seventeen and Aubrey is absolutely one of the three guys

339
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: that can do that, I'm paying him ten million.

340
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 6: Okay, So let me ask you take a guess, this

341
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 6: guy's still currently in the league. Who is the highest

342
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 6: paid kicker of all time?

343
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: So in the league, Well, for it was the.

344
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 6: Harrison Butker the Chiefs six point four million, according to

345
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 6: our staff, six point four You're gonna basically.

346
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 7: Move up to ten for Aubrey. That's a little bit crazy.

347
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 6: Like, let's say the Cowboys have needs, Colin, I will

348
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 6: just say, with the new kickoff rules, if you don't

349
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 6: have a good kickoff, then you have a great kicker.

350
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 6: The Cowboys need like twenty five yards and Brandon Aubrey's

351
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 6: in range.

352
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 7: That's like three points for a couple first downs.

353
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 6: I don't let him go, but I'm very curious how

354
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 6: this shakes out, because I wonder what happens if he

355
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:02,119
Speaker 6: hit the.

356
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: Listen, people didn't used to pay tight ends or safeties.

357
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: Have you noticed like the safety position for a lot

358
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: of teams like Seattle, Philadelphia, the Ram There there are

359
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: teams in the league now that are you know, they

360
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: the value of safeties and tight ends over the last

361
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: ten years because the top tight ends now you can

362
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: split them out wide. So to me, like kicking changed,

363
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: the pat a is harder than it used to be. Okay,

364
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: b sixty yard field goals are in play. See we've

365
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: changed the kickoff. So I have three elements in football

366
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 1: for anybody listening, the kickoff change, the pat change, and

367
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: the distance in which they're using a new ball now

368
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 1: that you can kick with. Well, now that's been kicking

369
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: more important. So six and a half to me, if

370
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: I got to nine, I can look, I can absolutely

371
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 1: get he's an offensive weapon and an offensive league.

372
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 6: So you're gonna have the highest paid quarterback in the

373
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 6: league or one of the highest in Dak Prescott.

374
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: I don't love that, but I'd say I'm not letting

375
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 1: you walk.

376
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 6: But also you're having one of the highest paid quarterbacks,

377
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 6: one of the biggest.

378
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 7: Cat hits, maybe the most.

379
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 6: Expensive wide receiver duo in the league in Pickens.

380
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 7: And Ceedee Lamb. And now you're gonna have the highest

381
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 7: paid kicker by a country mile.

382
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: You're also going to have two first round picks, and

383
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: you're going to select two defensive players. So you're going

384
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: to get some value on the defensive side. And you know,

385
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: you and I have talked about this. I think they're

386
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: really smart teams. The Rams do this. They put their

387
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: money on offense. They go young, cheap and talented on defense.

388
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: So the Cowboys need to get less expensive on defense.

389
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: Two first round picks will help. Don't be shocked, I'll

390
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: say this, Cowboys don't have a second or a third.

391
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 1: Don't be shocked if they don't move down with their

392
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 1: first pick and pick up a third or a fourth

393
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: round pick and draft another defensive player.

394
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 6: It's just crazy how good of a weapon Aubrey is

395
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 6: in the NFL. I feel like any time you're in

396
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 6: field goal range.

397
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 4: He's good.

398
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: Okay, So paying a kicker ten million dollars is three

399
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: percent of the cap. This year, the Seahawks just won

400
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Their kicker was two point four percent

401
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: of the cap.

402
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 7: Jason Myers, and he had.

403
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: Five field goal twenty of the twenty one top players

404
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: in the league in point scored, all thirteen at the

405
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: top all kickers, and twenty and twenty one top scorers

406
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: are kickers. And I'm not going to pay two and

407
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 1: a half percent well on my cap for my highest

408
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: scoring player in an era when the kickoffs change, the

409
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: pats changed, and they're using a new ball. Well, how's

410
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: this happen? Brandon Aubry nine million?

411
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 7: How's this?

412
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 6: Because Sam Darnold's only making thirty thirty five to forty

413
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 6: and dak is closer to sixty. You can afford to

414
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 6: pay your kicker. By the way, Seattle has a great

415
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 6: punter too, don't they. If memory serves, he had some

416
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 6: amazing like punts in the postseason or maybe late regular season.

417
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,239
Speaker 6: You can spend more when you're not giving it all

418
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 6: to the quarterback.

419
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: The last two years, the highest scoring player in the

420
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 1: league is the Cowboys kicker. I can't pay him two

421
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: and a half percent of cap.

422
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 7: No, wow, all right, that was fun.

423
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 4: That was good.

424
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: All right.

425
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,360
Speaker 6: Let's move on the culture. Moving off of Anthony Richardson.

426
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 6: They gave him permission to go seek a trade, and

427
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 6: obviously everybody's speculating what Pittsburgh, where does he go who

428
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 6: takes a chance on this guy who can't complete five

429
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 6: yard passes. Interestingly, a bunch of people looked at when

430
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 6: the Colts played the Vikings and apparently Kevin O'Connell is

431
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 6: like a huge fan of Anthony Richardson and went up

432
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 6: to him and one of them was micd Up.

433
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 7: And he made a lot of nice comments. So now

434
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:37,159
Speaker 7: there's speculation.

435
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,199
Speaker 6: Just Kevin O'Connell, say, go get me Anthony Richardson for

436
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 6: like a fifth or something cheap.

437
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 7: I mean Trey Lance gott I forget what he was

438
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 7: traded for.

439
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 6: It wasn't much, But Anthony Richardson has more talent than

440
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 6: Trey Lance did. I'd be very interested to see what

441
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 6: the market is like for Richardson. Somebody's gonna take a

442
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 6: chance because he's super young and has fifteen starts and

443
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 6: is like a freakin adonnas When you look, he could

444
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 6: make any throw outrun anybody?

445
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 7: Where are you on Richardson?

446
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: He is a backup, talented, strong backup. He just not

447
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: can't consistently throw the ball accurately. It just doesn't work

448
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 1: for me.

449
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 7: So if you're JJ McCarthy, you're like fine with this.

450
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: Move, you know, I don't think JJ McCarthy's going to

451
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: finish the year as the starter. But I think Minnesota's

452
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: got problems on their hands, all right.

453
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 7: So Kyler Murray or Anthony Richardson, who you take him?

454
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: It's not even close. Kyler Murray, not even close.

455
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 7: Tua or Anthony Richardson.

456
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: Tua.

457
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 4: Oh, you're low on Richardson.

458
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 1: I can't be lower. I cannot be lower.

459
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 6: Final story is, let's go to the World Baseball Classic

460
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 6: and show Heyo Tony Colin that video you see on

461
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 6: the screen. The packed stadium is to watch Shoeo Tony

462
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 6: hit batting practice in the Tokyo Dome BP for Shoeo Tony,

463
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 6: and the thing was sold out. The World Baseball Classic

464
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 6: obviously coming to Fox NFS one, starting mark fourth through

465
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:01,360
Speaker 6: the seventeenth.

466
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 7: Look at these bombs.

467
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 6: Show Hey is hitting, Oh baseball. That was a foul ball.

471
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 6: time zone and watch that.

472
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 7: No problem.

Speaker 6: USA Brazil is a week from today and obviously all

Speaker 6: the world baseball class.

476
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 7: It's gonna be fun man. A lot of big names

477
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 7: out of this park.

478
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: No, J Mackle the news, Well, that's the news, and

479
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 1: thanks for stopping by the Herd line. The Team USA

480
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 1: is favored to win, just like they did in hockey.

481
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: Everybody seemed to enjoy that except the print media. Everybody

482
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:52,120
Speaker 1: in America loved Team USA winning gold except spots Riders. Apparently,

483
00:22:52,920 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: Tomorrow's headlines today next, what's that be?

484
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 2: Sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays at

485
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 2: noon Eastern, not a Empacific.

486
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 6: The fastest racing on Earth returns to Fox. Practice is

487
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 6: happening right now down in Saint Petersburg, Florida, leading up

488
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 6: to Sunday's big race.

489
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 7: Alex Palow looks.

490
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 6: To defend his title when the twenty twenty six Indie

491
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 6: Car season gets underway Sunday at noon Eastern on Fox.

492
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: Well, the twenty twenty six NFL off season is heating up.

493
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 1: The combines going on right now. We have multiple veteran

494
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and Malik willis on the market. Somebody's gonna make

495
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: bids on these guys. It's time for Tomorrow's headlines today.

496
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,360
Speaker 1: J Mack knows well they're all going to land. Colts

497
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: have some decisions to make. What say you on Daniel Jones?

498
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, it got the crystal ball out. Started to look

499
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 6: into the Colt situation Daniel Jones.

500
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 7: Do they want to keep him? Do they punt?

501
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 6: The headline for Daniel Jones in Indy will be nickel

502
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 6: and dimed. Colts divvy up to keep Danny Colin. I

503
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 6: cannot see a scenario where they lose him. I mean,

504
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 6: I know this sounds bad to say, but like they're

505
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 6: in a great spot. No other team is backing up

506
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 6: the brinks for a guy coming off a major injury Achilles.

507
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 6: And he's had two other season ending injuries in his career,

508
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 6: so nobody else is.

509
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 7: They're not bidding with anyone else. They can get a

510
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 7: team friendly deal.

511
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 6: Obviously, he thrived early in the season, started to fade

512
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 6: a little bit late that had the injury.

513
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 7: I think you bring in a bridge quarterback to get

514
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 7: to Jones. I mean again, you.

515
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 6: Don't know how he's going to react coming off the Achilles.

516
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 7: Remember Aaron Rodgers coming off his achilles.

517
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 6: Now, Jones is much younger, but part of Jones's strength

518
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 6: is escapability running with his legs is he going to

519
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 6: get that back instantly?

520
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: I don't know tomorrow's headlines today. What about the veteran

521
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 1: nice guy Kirk Cousins.

522
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 6: So we know they're in the market for somebody unless

523
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,919
Speaker 6: your boy Riley Leonard membery I think you said he

524
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 6: was like Josh Allen, I don't know, something ridiculous, but

525
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 6: you know he showed well a little bit. But they

526
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,360
Speaker 6: got to go get a veteran, right, this team needs

527
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 6: to compete. They gave up picks to go get Sauce Gardner.

528
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 6: So the quarterback the Colts go after the headline will

529
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 6: be a Kirk in the road Colts fine.

530
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 7: Trail to two quarterbacks.

531
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 6: Yes, I'm going Kirk Cousins here over to over Kyler Murray.

532
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 6: So I looked into the data of where Shane Styken

533
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 6: liked to throw the ball last year.

534
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 4: Right, he had.

535
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 6: Daniel Jones and they threw deep to Pierce a lot.

536
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 6: Loved the vertical game. Pierce is a free agent, he's leaving.

537
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 6: So what happened when Jones went down? They brought in

538
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 6: Philip Rivers and they had to pivot to a more

539
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 6: truncated offense. Middle of the field stuff for Philip Rivers

540
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 6: who does the middle of the field stuff. Kirk Cousins.

541
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 6: You got a great tight end in Tyler Warren Pittman

542
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 6: goes over the middle a lot, and you've got to

543
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 6: make a running back. You got a great running back

544
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 6: in Jonathan Taylor who can also get everybody to, you know,

545
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 6: suck up to the line of scrimmage to to contain him.

546
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 6: And then you got Warren and Pittman on the outside.

547
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 6: I think Kirk Cousins fits, and frankly, I mean, I

548
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 6: don't know that Daniel Jones is a lock to overtake

549
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 6: him once he returns.

550
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 7: Where are you and Cousins versus Jones?

551
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 1: Daniel's a much better athlete. I would probably at this

552
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 1: point in Kirk's career take Daniel Jones.

553
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, interesting, all right, Well, well we'll see Kirk.

554
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 6: I think Twa and Kyler probably a little too pricey,

555
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 6: and those guys are better than Kirk Cousins is the stage.

556
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 7: They're not giving up that job.

557
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: Did Daniel Jones? Tomorrow's headlines today? What if ows the

558
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: current Niner backup Mac Jones?

559
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 4: Yeah?

560
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 6: Mac Jones really fortified his value last year with a

561
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 6: great showing coming off the bench. The headline for Mac

562
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 6: Jones in twenty twenty six will be Mac to reality

563
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 6: Jones stays on track with Niners. Colin, I see no

564
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 6: value at all in trading Mac Jones anytime soon.

565
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 7: The smart move for San Francisco.

566
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 6: And you look at this historically, every year some quarterback

567
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 6: gets hurt offseason program, something happens in preseason, and you

568
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 6: need a quarterback and you're desperate, and then there's nobody

569
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 6: out there. I think the Niners keep mac Jones, and

570
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 6: if they plan on moving him, I think at the

571
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 6: deadline during the season is more likely to a team

572
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 6: desperate to fill that quarterback role. I mean, hell, what

573
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 6: if something happens to Rock Purdy this offseason, you can't

574
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 6: you go on to next season. No Mac Jones brought,

575
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 6: no Rock party, It's over. You're not going anywhere. And

576
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 6: so then you maybe tear it all down. What do

577
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 6: you do with McCaffrey.

578
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 7: So you definitely keep mac Jones.

579
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 6: Now, I would be floored to get what a third

580
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 6: round pick and Mo By the way, Colin, next year's

581
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 6: draft early returns, very early, looks to be much better

582
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 6: than this year's draft. Right, That's what the draft guys

583
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 6: are saying.

584
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 1: Tomorrow's headlines today the enigmatic, semi committed Kyler Murray, who

585
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: I like much more than j mac.

586
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 6: Yes, well, you guys hanging out at UFC fights and stuff.

587
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: I don't know.

588
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 6: Kyler Murray's a tough one man. He ran out, he

589
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 6: wore at his welcome in Arizona. They don't want to

590
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 6: keep him. But where does he land? The headline for

591
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 6: Kyler Murray in twenty twenty six will be fried Kallam

592
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 6: Murray quarterback comes.

593
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 7: With a side of pick.

594
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 6: Six sauce, Kylin, what do you think about that? Minnesota Vikings.

595
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 6: Let me go into the logic here. I know Kevin

596
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 6: O'Connell's a quarterback, whisper. I just don't know if JJ

597
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 6: McCarthy's the right fit in that indoor setting. Holy cal

598
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 6: Kyler Murray can do some great things on the turf.

599
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 6: And oh, by the way, he comes into an offense

600
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 6: with Justin Jefferson.

601
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: Hello, role line than Arizona two.

602
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, for sure. I just think Minnesota makes a

603
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 6: lot of sense. Now, if the schedule comes out and

604
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 6: they got to play Chicago and Green Bay in December,

605
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 6: that that stinks.

606
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 7: We know, Kyler.

607
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 6: Obviously has struggled in his career outdoors, but I like.

608
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 7: The offensive line in Minnesota.

609
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 6: In Minnesota, I think Kevin O'Connell's a guy you want

610
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 6: to go rehab your career. See what Sam Darnold did

611
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 6: before moving on to Winnisoeta.

612
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, I think Kyler would like that. I just

613
00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: will koc like that. And finally, tomorrow's headline today, I

614
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 1: think Malik Willis. I think there's gonna be two or

615
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: three teams that make a real run at him. Athletic, little, small, accurate,

616
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,479
Speaker 1: nice arm learn the Green Bay system quickly. What say you?

617
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, So Miami's supposed to be a contender.

618
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 6: They don't have any money. They want to move heaven

619
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 6: and Earth to get Malik Willis. My jets, they are

620
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 6: not in the mix. Sorry, Malik. The headline for Malik

621
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 6: Willis next year will be I don't tomorrow.

622
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 4: Be happy?

623
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 6: Give me Malik Willis to the Arizona Cardinals, reuniting with

624
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 6: a Lafleur brother. Lafleur obviously coached him in Green Bay, Colin.

625
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 6: I just it's real tough for me to get super

626
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 6: excited about. I saw NFL Network ranked him as the

627
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 6: number one free agent and I'm like, why he threw

628
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 6: thirty five passes last season?

629
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 7: What are we doing here?

630
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: Colin?

631
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 6: His four year simple size is not even like a

632
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 6: full NFL season. He just hasn't done enough for me

633
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 6: to justify thirty five mil. You know, there's a quarterback

634
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 6: deficiency around the league, right There just aren't enough good starters.

635
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 6: So maybe somebody desperate overpays Malik Willis. But do you

636
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 6: really have confidence he's going to be a three year.

637
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: Starter on a playoffs at thirty million dollars? I can

638
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: stomach that. Here's Robert Mays from The Athletic earlier today

639
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 1: on the Malik Willis market.

640
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 5: But if you're a quarterback and needy team and you're

641
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 5: telling me that you're not looking at Malik Willis, you're

642
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 5: a liar. And think about how many quarterback and needy

643
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 5: teams there are and how few avenues there are to

644
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 5: those guys. This year, Baker Mayfield signed a one year,

645
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 5: four million dollar deal to be the buck starting quarterback.

646
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 5: And then when he succeeds, you see it start to

647
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 5: creep up. All right, Donald's ten million, Daniel Jones is

648
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 5: fifteen million, Justin Fields is now twenty million, and So

649
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 5: the idea that you could have gotten Baker for four

650
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 5: million bucks three years ago, and now Malik Willis is

651
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 5: going to make thirty million dollars a year in free agency.

652
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 5: It just shows you how fast things change when a

653
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 5: certain idea starts working for people.

654
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: And the cap now is twenty two million higher than

655
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: last year's three hundred and one million.

656
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 6: So so cal let me just jump in. And Mays

657
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 6: is smart and it does a great job. He mentioned

658
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 6: Baker Mayfield. Baker Mayfield started for four seasons in.

659
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland, four but he also had baggage.

660
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 6: Said he did Sam Darnel multi year starter around the league.

661
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 6: I know you're going to be shocked to hear this.

662
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 6: Malik Willis has started six games.

663
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: Give me a thirty years right, they're in front of you.

664
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: Give me his stat so far as a professional football

665
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: league quarterback.

666
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 7: He has attempted.

667
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 6: Now, so Malik Willis has attempted one hundred and fifty

668
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 6: five passes in four years, sixty seven percent completions, thirteen

669
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 6: hundred yards, sixty vs.

670
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 4: Three picks.

671
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 7: He hasn't thrown an interception since his rookie year.

672
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 6: Because he's not throwing the football anywhere.

673
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 7: Colin he's not throwing in Green Bay. I mean basically

674
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 7: they had him come in and remember it was a

675
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 7: heavy run game.

676
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 6: He threw like thirteen passes because that's what called for

677
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 6: the victory.

678
00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 7: Lafleor's a smart coach.

679
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 6: Giving a guy with one hundred and fifty five pass

680
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 6: attempts again, that's like a month for Baker Mayfield as

681
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,479
Speaker 6: a starter back in Cleveland.

682
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: Okay, you're giving him thirty five. You're glossing over this.

683
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 1: He has a career ninety nine passer rating, he is

684
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: hyper athletic, and he doesn't throw picks well, hasn't thrown

685
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 1: picks again for you're I mean again, ninety nine passer

686
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: rating in two different conferences, hasn't thrown a pick in

687
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 1: four years, and is crazy athletic and from what I

688
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: can tell, well liked.

689
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

690
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 6: I can't find an apples to apples comparison for any

691
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 6: quarterback who's played this little after four years and then

692
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 6: got a lucrative free age.

693
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: He's not asking you to pay him thirty eight. I'm saying,

694
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: can he get? Can he get? I mean, let's say

695
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: the mark, because I think two teams will go after him.

696
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 1: Would you be comfortable with this twenty six million.

697
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 7: I mean you could be comfortable with that.

698
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,239
Speaker 6: I honestly would rather get an inferior quarterback, try him

699
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 6: out there and have my Jets win three games and

700
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 6: then pick arch Banning or car or Sellers or whoever

701
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 6: you are. Malik Willis is going to get you like

702
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 6: six wins and then you get back to the middle,

703
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 6: which is like the worst place to be because you

704
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 6: don't pick high.

705
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: I am I am generally genuinely interested in Malik Willis.

706
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: I am too. Yeah, I think it's interesting.

707
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 6: I just remember his agent is going to be putting

708
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 6: out stuff to reporters. Oh, thirty five mil for sure? Yeah,

709
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 6: look at the market, who's he competing with? Like all

710
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 6: that's agent driven. I think the reality could be a little.

711
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: Different, right, nice job this week. It is a slower

712
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: time of the year, but I thought our staff crushed it.

713
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: And as I was choking in the hour two, they

714
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 1: threw a life preserver to me. Don't forget the Fox

715
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: Sports app. Click on that lower tab Ai Sports. It's

716
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: a lot of fun with the Ai version of yours. Truly,

717
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: we'll see it Monday. It's the herd
