29
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: it's a big week going on. Uh, the election is

30
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: happening if you're listening to this on Tuesday or Wednesday,

31
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: So hold onto your butts. Let's start with this. And

32
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: I was just watching the Monday night game and the

33
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: just the the the polar opposites of when Daniel Jones

34
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: would come on the field and then Tom Brady would

35
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: come on the field, and I noticed something. And I

36
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: don't think enough players in the NFL do this if

37
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: I was even if I was a mobile quarterback. If

38
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: I don't understand why these guys don't study Tom Brady

39
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: and his movements within the pocket. Now, clearly, playing within

40
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: the pocket is the hardest skill to find, right. It's

41
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: actually when I watched Joe Burrow and I threw on

42
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Tennessee game this morning. I was like, he

43
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: is so poisoned in that pocket, He's so under control.

44
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: But I would just emulate and like the best pocket

45
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the last decade, right or Drew Brees, Tom Brady,

46
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. These guys can't move like Aaron Rodgers a

47
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: great pocket quarterback, but in his back pocket, I mean,

48
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: I'm not trying, no pun intended, he can always roll out, obviously,

49
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson in some of these mobile quarterbacks, a younger

50
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger, even though old Roethlisberger and out is kind

51
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: of just stuck. He can't really move, but he's really

52
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: good in the pocket and part of it is huge

53
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: and he can see. But I would just I would

54
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: copy these old guys, like if I was a talented

55
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: young quarterback to Shaun Watson whoever, because I think sometimes

56
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: young players their pocket mechanics get kind of shitty. And

57
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: you saw Daniel Jones in the game, and listen he

58
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: is He's a very flawed player. He has a lot

59
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 1: of talent, but he turns the ball over at rapid

60
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: rates for a guy that needs to be accurate. He

61
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: doesn't have great touch. He's very hit or missed with

62
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: that in his pocket play is horrendous. He's running into sacks.

63
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: When I had watched young quarterbacks in the NFL, so

64
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: many of them moved backwards when kind of you know,

65
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: everything gets crazy in the pocket. And listen. The most

66
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: underrated part about playing NFL quarterback that we never talk

67
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: anything about, right, it's always arm strength and are they

68
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: tall enough and do they have athlete us is enough?

69
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: Is toughness. You have to be a tough mfor to

70
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: stand in that pocket with four or five guys. And

71
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: the four guys typically two of them are over three pounds,

72
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: probably all run you know, sub five oh forties, multiple

73
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: guys two hundred sixty pounds on the edge that all

74
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: run four seven shredded, nobody fat coming after your ass.

75
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: And then if they blitz linebackers, those guys are typically

76
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: six ft now all running four fource full speed will

77
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: destroy you. See, the most underrated attribute of a quarterback

78
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: is toughness. Impossible to quantify. We know when we see

79
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: it because all the tough quarterbacks are willing to step

80
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: up in the pocket. Because when you step up in

81
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 1: the pocket, do you know what you do. Sometimes you

82
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: step right into the rush. You get hit when you

83
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: step away from the pocket, and you're kind of, you know,

84
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 1: floating backwards. In theory, you're avoiding pressure, right, But a

85
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: lot of times the outside rushers you run into them.

86
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: How often do you see quarterbacks run into sacks? Now?

87
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: I don't pretend to be Bill Walsh or Sean Payton

88
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: Randy Reid when it comes to like dissecting the quarterback,

89
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: but it's pretty basic. I watched Tom Brady all night.

90
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: He cannot move. He's probably, I mean, it's probably one

91
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: of the worst athletes in the league. Right he was

92
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: when he came into the league. Well he's now, he's

93
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: forty three, and he's in better shape now. But he

94
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: can't run, can't run away from anybody. Yet he never

95
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: goes backwards. He only goes forward. I saw this with

96
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield this weekend. He's always running to the right

97
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: or to the left, like bro Stay in the pockets,

98
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 1: step up, if it's not there, throw the ball away.

99
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones on this last drive of the game, right

100
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: before he hits golden tape for a really nice touchdown.

101
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: He got this lucky like fourth and fifteen, he almost

102
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: ran right into a sack, because when you backpedal at

103
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: quarterback and you're going right or left, you're gonna run

104
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: into one of the defensive the pass rushers, the ends

105
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: the edge rush because typically the offensive lineman or pushing

106
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: them up field. I see it happen all the time,

107
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: and sometimes with the young athletic guys Lamar's, Deshawn's. Russell

108
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: used to do this really early in his career. He's

109
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: gotten so much better. Like Russell, when he's in the

110
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: pocket and there's a lane, he has no problem stepping

111
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: up and making throws. He's developed into a great pocket quarterback.

112
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: Great might be strong, but a really really good pocket quarterback.

113
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: And those first three or four years of Russell Wilson's

114
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: career is like, could he do that? Rogers is the

115
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: greatest hybrid because he can play anyway. If he wants

116
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: to just eat your life from the pocket, he can

117
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: step up all day long. But he has the athleticism

118
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 1: to either roll to the right, roll to the left,

119
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 1: but also not really run into sacks. These young quarterbacks

120
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: like Daniel Jones and the Deshawn's and Lamars and the

121
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolos. They do these like three sixties in the

122
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: pockets and they run right into pressure. You know who

123
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: I never see do that, Drew Brees, uh, Peyton Manning forever,

124
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers forever, obviously Tom Brady. They don't even waste

125
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: those steps. They don't practice it. But part it is

126
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: like when the heat's coming and listen. I don't blame

127
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: those guys who are doing the three sixties. I can't

128
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: imagine seeing the guy run at you. But if you

129
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: want to be an elite player, you gotta be consistent

130
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: with your footwork in the pocket. Like it's it's pretty

131
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: tried and true formula. And I'm a big believer of

132
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: like the quarterback position has changed, like more athleticism, right,

133
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: But when you're making throws, unless you have like a

134
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 1: Mahomes or Peak Roger's arm, and you can get away

135
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: without perfect footwork in the pocket. The majority of guys,

136
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: Tom Brady included, have to have your feet stet stepping

137
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: up into the pocket. You can't be rolling backward. And

138
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: I think it's something you see consistently. It's why so

139
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: many of these quarterbacks fail in the league, and even

140
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: not even failed, but never probably reach their ultimate potential

141
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: because a lot of these guys getting drafted the first

142
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: couple of rounds have a lot of talent, right, big arms,

143
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: smart kids, look the part, can move. A lot of

144
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: them don't want the heat. And I don't even know

145
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: if it's don't want the heat, it's that's just they're

146
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: in stinks are no matter how much you coach him

147
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: up in practice, no matter how many bad drills you use,

148
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,239
Speaker 1: it just never gets embedded into their head. Daniel Jones

149
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: came from a pro style offense and David Cutcliff, who

150
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: produced The Manning Brothers, and you watch him, You're like, God,

151
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: this guy looks like a quarterback who just never gonna

152
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: figure it out. He's got bad mechanics, he's a bad

153
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: decision maker. He's not calm in the pocket. You know,

154
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: this isn't his rookie season. He's been playing a little

155
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: while now, and his just his fundamentals are atrocious. But

156
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 1: you do see some talent there. He's athletic. His arm,

157
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: when at least he sets his feet, he can make

158
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: accurate throws. But Tom one of the worst athletes in

159
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: NFL history, I guess back in the eighties and even nineties,

160
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: there were a lot of bad athletes at quarterback now,

161
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: like you know, not everyone's Lamar Kyler, but even the

162
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 1: average guys are you know, uh Josh Allen Right, I mean,

163
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: just go around the legal A lot of Deshaun Watson.

164
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: These guys can move like Kirk Cousins is at the

165
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: bottom end like a pocket quarterback like and Tom Brady

166
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: has no problem each alive from the pocket and he

167
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: didn even play that well tonight. I give the Giants

168
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: a lot of credit. I've said this. I had a take.

169
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 1: I was I had a sweet segment lined up if

170
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: the Giants got blown out, because my take is, listen,

171
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 1: I understand how your bread is buttered, and you want

172
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: big markets on TV. And I'm someone you know, I

173
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: grew up in a smaller market, the Sacramento area. It

174
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: wasn't the Bay area. You know. I was a King's guy,

175
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 1: but I was a I was a forty nine or

176
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: Giants guy, So I rooted for big you know big

177
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: I guess money teams. But I remember when the Kings

178
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: lost the Lakers and no one gave a ship and

179
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: all my friends we were devastated and we thought we

180
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: got screwed it. Turned out the referee was on the

181
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: take with the mob. But later I learned, like, of

182
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: course the NBA would want the Lakers like I would too.

183
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 1: It's better for business, so I get it. I also

184
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 1: believe like the next two weeks, the Giant were on

185
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: Monday Night Football. Tonight, now they had a good showing.

186
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: They actually were pretty entertaining, and the Jets are on

187
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,479
Speaker 1: next week. I do think there should be some baseline,

188
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 1: like in the NFL, the television ratings. It's such a

189
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: national sport, Like I understand why the Yankees are on

190
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Baseball basically every week. They're always good though,

191
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: so like a Yankee team is always going to the playoffs,

192
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: So you're putting these Jets and Giants teams they don't

193
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: win any games that there should be like a mandatory

194
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: line to get a Monday or Sunday night game. At

195
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: least Sunday can flex. Monday you can't flex because of

196
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: the travel, Like you should have to have won eight

197
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,719
Speaker 1: games the year before to get a Monday night football game.

198
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: And I don't pretend to be I'm naive to the fact,

199
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: like there's a lot that goes into this. But the

200
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: Giants were awful last year. Where where did they? Where

201
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: were they in the draft? Like top seven eight? I

202
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 1: mean they were terrible, and yet they're on Monday Night

203
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: football against Tampa. Now I get to why you put Tampa.

204
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: They got Tom Brady and I also gave them a

205
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: little bit of a past. Tonight you're playing a bad

206
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: team on the road primetime games. Even the bad team

207
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 1: gets fired up. It's clear Tampa's got a boatload of talent,

208
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: right God, when will come back off the finger injury.

209
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: Mike Evans had a touchdown with Tom the night. Gronk

210
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: looks better and better. Ronald Johnson, Leonard Fournette run their

211
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: ass off. Tampa's defense, you know how I feel the

212
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator is the best in the league. If not,

213
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: you know, top two or three. Devin White is just

214
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: becoming a superstar JPP ever since he blew off his hand.

215
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: The guy's a badass. Plays his ass off, you know, Sue.

216
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: Their front seven is awesome. Their young dbs make plays

217
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 1: whitfield that the safety they draft in the second round

218
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: is just a I mean that, dude, it's just crushing.

219
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: People love Tampa like that. They're gonna be a twelve

220
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: win team and probably if they can stay relatively healthy,

221
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: the favorite to win the NFC, because I think they're

222
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: a little more complete in Seattle. Those Seattle like their

223
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: high end is really high. I can see Seattle, Tampa

224
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: Green Bay still a little flawed. As I'm recording this,

225
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 1: the trade deadline is not quite over, so we'll see

226
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 1: if they make a trade. Doubt they do, But I

227
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: I just I just wish we could get teams that

228
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: are two three four win teams and that have not

229
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: one the year before. They shouldn't be allowed on primetime games,

230
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: like can't you do some sort of rotation and listen?

231
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: I understand, Like you're not gonna put Jacksonville or you

232
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: want to avoid some of the smaller markets. I get it.

233
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: So it's really difficult for the league when the NFC

234
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: e sucks because big markets rate higher. It's just simple math.

235
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 1: There are more people if you if you the New

236
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: York Giants play the Dallas Cowboys or the San Francisco

237
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: forty Niners, you just have more eyeballs in those two

238
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 1: cities than if you have, for example, Jacksonville play Tampa. Right,

239
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: I I get it. I do understand, but there has

240
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 1: to be a way to just get playoff level teams

241
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: in these games. And there's a huge story today they're

242
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: like ESPN and NBC are fighting over Sunday Night because

243
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: Sunday Night is the biggest, the biggest game. Uh, it's

244
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: easier with Sunday because you can flex games because they're

245
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: on the same day. You don't need to change travel.

246
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 1: It's a much easier endeavor. But man, I just I

247
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 1: don't want to look up in November and see see

248
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: a team that doesn't have a win. You know, I

249
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: don't want to watch the Jets next week. And it

250
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: could have been avoidable. Now. I get they won seven

251
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: games last year, so you could say, well, John, they

252
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: were kind of on the come. So maybe it's I

253
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: I hate just throwing crap against the wall without having

254
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: a solution. I I just I don't know, Man, I

255
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: just I'm just tired of these crappy teams in my

256
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: primetime games. Now I'm gonna watch it. I waited to

257
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: record till after at least the the opening segment. You know,

258
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: a little Trick of the Trade already did a little

259
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: most of the meat of the podcast. But couldn't it

260
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: be like Tampa foror someone better. For the love of God,

261
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: let's dive into I I'd say the game of the

262
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: day in terms of it actually lived up to being

263
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: a good game, and the hype leading up to it

264
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: was the Steelers and the Ravens game. And I think

265
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: we learned something. Now, some of you might have learned something.

266
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: I already knew this. I think a lot of you

267
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: are probably already knew it too, because we had evidence.

268
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is not gonna be good at winning big games.

269
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: Why because you have to pass to beat good teams.

270
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: And I said it last week when talking about Seattle,

271
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: I said, there are two things that are non negotiables.

272
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: If you're gonna win the Super Bowl, you need a

273
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: star quarterback and you need a good defense. And when

274
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: I stay at star quarterback, I don't mean Lamar Jackson.

275
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: I mean a passing quarterback Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, Patrick Mahomes,

276
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: and a good defense. It's pretty clear the Ravens have

277
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: a really good defense. Again, these are non negotiables. You

278
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: want to compete for the Super Bowl, you need a

279
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: good defense, and you need a star quarterback that can pass.

280
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: Because it's a passing league. The Ravens ran for well

281
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: over two yards yesterday and lost. Why because our quarterback

282
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: was throwing interceptions. To win in two thousand twenty, you

283
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: have to throw the ball against good teams. You can

284
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: beat the ship out of the Bengals, you can pound

285
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: the Jags, you can run circles around the Browns. But

286
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: when you're gonna play the Steelers, when you're gonna play

287
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, when you're gonna play in these playoff games,

288
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: defenses are gonna make your quarterback beat you with their arm. Yesterday,

289
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, I'm recording this on Monday, so if you're

290
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: listening to Tuesday or Wednesday, completed thirteen balls, but it

291
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: wasn't just the third completions. He basically opened the game

292
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: with a pick six later in the second half through

293
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: a key interception that led to a Steeler touchdown, and

294
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: just wasn't a good enough passer. Because the jury is in,

295
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: I'm okay with them running a little bit. If he

296
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: can't beat me throwing the ball, I'm gonna have a

297
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: chance to win. And right now, he can't beat me

298
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: throwing outside the numbers. So if I take away his

299
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: pass game inside right the box, my linebackers just take

300
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: away the eight ends basically in safeties, and I saw

301
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: Mike Tom talk about it after the game. We weren't

302
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: gonna take our linebackers off the field to put in

303
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: more dbs and have them run it down our throat. Now,

304
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: the reality is they were effective running the ball at J. K. Dobbins,

305
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: really good player, Gus Edwards. I mean, their run game

306
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: is good. You don't win in two thousand and twenty

307
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: and really over the last couple of decades. With a

308
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: great run game, it doesn't matter. It's fun. It can

309
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: win you eleven twelve games, and the Ravens are gonna

310
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: win eleven games, and they're gonna run it down people's

311
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: throw consistently. And then when they play the Chiefs and

312
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: when they play the Steelers, and when they play a

313
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: playoff game, they're gonna get their ass kicked. Now, they

314
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: didn't get their ass kicked yesterday. They actually outplayed the Steelers.

315
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: I thought, if you just watched the game, you just

316
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: like the Ravens were kind of dictating the terms. But

317
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: they couldn't win the game. Why because they couldn't pass

318
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: to win the game. And when they had to make

319
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 1: some passes, they're either their quarterback through an interception, or

320
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: he just leans to run and when the game's on

321
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: the line, like runs, he gets stuffed. It's like, I

322
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: need you passing that. There's a reason why the Chiefs

323
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 1: would be the heavy favorites right now because they have

324
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes. There's a reason why, as you saw yesterday

325
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 1: with Seattle. Now it might have been Jimmy Garoppolo too,

326
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 1: but their defense plays well, they're they're never gonna lose

327
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: because Russell is gonna destroy you through the air. The

328
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: rules dictate passing the football. Now, that's how you dominate

329
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: in the sport of football. And I like Lamar Jackson.

330
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: I was wrong on Lamar Jackson. I thought he was

331
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: gonna be a terrible pro. He's a really good pro,

332
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: won the MVP last year, But is he a guy

333
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: like when I want him for the next ten years? No,

334
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,239
Speaker 1: I'd know they have Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert. They

335
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: haven't won an MVP, but I know they can win

336
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: through the air in theory. I mean, they're on terrible teams,

337
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: but like, I want my quarterback to be a pastor

338
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: because listen, running the ball is fun when your quarterback

339
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 1: and run around. I saw it when I was with

340
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: Philly we had Michael Vick. It was sweet. He almost

341
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: won the m v P. And then we got to

342
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: the playoffs and he was just limited because back then

343
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: he couldn't really read the Nickel Blitz and he got

344
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 1: hurt a lot. And Lamar has actually been durable. My

345
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: quarterback has to be a throw first guy. Just look

346
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: at the history of the league. Look at what works

347
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Roethlisberger. Hell, even Flacco and Eli

348
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: won three Super Bowls. And how they win those three

349
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: Super Bowls? Flacc goes one and those guys in Eli's

350
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 1: two because he made big plays with his arm. How

351
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: is this even? Are are we still talking about this? Really?

352
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: We don't need to, Like, we have the evidence. When

353
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: Lamar plays in big games, he doesn't look good. Just

354
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: that simple. You know Roethlisberger, who to me is a

355
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 1: shell of Pete Roethlisberger when he was this powerful athlete

356
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: that could move around but not a runner, but would

357
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: keep plays alive. He can't really move anymore. He didn't

358
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: even throw throw for over two hundred yards. But when

359
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: the game had to be won in the second half

360
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: and definitely in the fourth quarter and he had to

361
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: make big throws with his arm. He made him. They

362
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: scored touchdowns and they ultimately won the game because Roethlisberger,

363
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: who now is much more capable kind of with his

364
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 1: head and his brains than he is like with his

365
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: body because he can't move. He's kind of a statue.

366
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 1: But his arms still good enough. And they cla claypool juju.

367
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 1: Their receivers are so physical. Uh. They just have a

368
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: great passing game. And that's why the Steelers, Like if

369
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: they played the Chiefs tomorrow, you'd be like, yes, the

370
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,400
Speaker 1: others could be the Chiefs. The Ravens play the Chiefs tomorrow,

371
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, no chance they ain't winning that game.

372
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: Passing league, don't don't ever forget that. And there are

373
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: a couple of non negotiables. You want to be a

374
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: Super Bowl contender, you gotta have a good defense. You

375
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: gotta have a star quarterback. That's simple. You know, if

376
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: your quarterback is a liability throwing the ball, that's a problem.

377
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 1: That'd be like, yeah, I run a business right now,

378
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 1: we you know, we we don't have a big president

379
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: on the internet, Like yes, pretty big liability now like

380
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: you should probably uh, you know, have a presence either

381
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: on Facebook, have a website, have something, because that's where

382
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: the consumer is. If you have an offense right now,

383
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,360
Speaker 1: you know we we could really run the ball two

384
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 1: or fifty yards a game. Cool, Like, what about when

385
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: you're playing the good teams? Can you throw for three hundred?

386
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: Not against the Jaguars, not against the Bengals, but against

387
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: the Steelers, against the Chiefs, gets the Titans in the playoffs, No,

388
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: you can't. We've seen it now. And some of it's

389
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: on Greg Roman because his run scheme is so good

390
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: that it feels like, I don't know whether it's practice.

391
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 1: They don't figure out how to utilize the passing game

392
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: and practice develop their quarterback and uh, I mean it

393
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: works right. He won the m v P. But the

394
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: goal of this sport when you're a team that's this good.

395
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: Same with the Niners. Back with Kaepernick, I saw it

396
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: is not to like win the MVP or to win

397
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: twelve games. If you're that good, you want to win

398
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. You want to win playoff games. And listen,

399
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: they had a devastating injury with Ronnie Stanley just signed

400
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: the contract, he had his legs snapped. It was I

401
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: I squirmed when they showed the replay. It was hard

402
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: to watch. It's a devastating injury. And I think Marlon

403
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,640
Speaker 1: Humphrey is on the COVID list now. But I still

404
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: think the Ravens are gonna be They're been in the

405
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: playoffs and they're they're not gonna you know, the Steels

406
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: are gonna win the division, So the Ravens are gonna

407
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: be the five seed. They're gonna play the Bills or

408
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: the Titans. Um. I don't know the Bills. Josh Allen's

409
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: come back to Earth, But why are the Ravens gonna

410
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: win a playoff game again on the road in the cold.

411
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: You know? It's like, can you throw? I don't think

412
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: he can. Some of that's on the coaches. I'm not

413
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: putting it all in the mar because I think their

414
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: offense kind of dictates you get this, so run heavy

415
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 1: and then your passes are kind of hit or miss,

416
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 1: and the EBB and flow with their offense just does

417
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: not work against good teams. And it's just I don't

418
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: even I'm just kind of tired of arguing this fact.

419
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: Moving forward, Okay, let's dive into a story that I

420
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 1: found really really interesting that didn't see this one coming,

421
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: and it was you know, from a from a friend,

422
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: you know him a little bit, Adam Schefter, and he

423
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 1: tweeted out that one factor that contributed to the Dolphins

424
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: decision to name two of the starting quarterback was because

425
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: they owned the Houston Texas pick. Clearly, the Houston Texans

426
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: are not very good and that pick may be very

427
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: high in the draft. The Dolphins need to know what

428
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,239
Speaker 1: they have in Tongovloa as they enter this you know,

429
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: next Springs draft with their two picks in each of

430
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: the first two rounds. So if they need to pivot,

431
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:26,159
Speaker 1: they will. And it kind of got me thinking. I

432
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: think a huge part of it is when I got

433
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: up on Monday, I went to the gym and I

434
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: didn't see any of the I bet as you know

435
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: on the Titans. Uh, they not only didn't cover, they lost.

436
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: And I watched that game when I went on the treadmill,

437
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, you work out with a mask on.

438
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 1: I saw my gym charge me for the first time

439
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: and in like forever, So I'm like, oh, they've gotta

440
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: be open. I'm gonna go. I need to get my

441
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: ass in shape, you know. Sad of just riding this

442
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 1: little stationary bike here. So I've gone to the gym

443
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 1: for the last week. Now, you gotta wear a mask.

444
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: It's no joke. I mean I actually feel I'll be

445
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: able to shed some pounds with a mask. Gone actually

446
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: kind of like it, you know, maybe it gets me

447
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: breathe a little harder. So I'm watching the game on

448
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: the StairMaster and going, Holy hell, Joe Burrow is a

449
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 1: just a stud. I watched Herbert four straight games, three

450
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 1: touchdownds in each game, the only rookies to do that

451
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 1: in NFL history. Justin Herbert Deshaun Watson. Like those two

452
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: guys are Francise quarterbacks. Joe Burrow is. I mean, his

453
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 1: poise is unreal. Herbert's talent is eye popping. And then

454
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: I watched two yesterday, twelve completions ninety three yards. Now,

455
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: they won the game pretty easily, two defensive touchdowns and

456
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: a special teams touchdown. They beat the ship out of

457
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 1: the ramps, I mean destroyed them. But like, twelve and

458
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: twenty two for ninety three yards is not getting it done.

459
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: And I think one thing that's gonna factor in. And

460
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: I've watched a lot of college football, Trevor Lawrence, stud,

461
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,919
Speaker 1: Justin Fields stud kuld it b y U, Zack Wilson

462
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 1: stud Trey Lance. Haven't seen him besides some YouTube clips.

463
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,239
Speaker 1: Everyone in the NFL thinks he's a freak. I mean,

464
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: we got four quarterbacks could go in the top ten.

465
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: Her uh, Lawrence and Fields are going one too. This,

466
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: Zack Wilson kind a b y U and Trey Lance

467
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: could both go somewhere between three and twelve. So if

468
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: if you're the Dolphins, the worst thing you can do

469
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: in the business of football, and that's what this is.

470
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: This is a football is a business exercise. The draft

471
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: is all about value. Free agency is how much you're

472
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: willing to pay for players as much as it's about

473
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: player acquisition. It's about what are you paying for him?

474
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 1: How much does it cost to get him? So we

475
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: got a trade for him, what's my trade cost? It's

476
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: all business. It's all about value. It's all about what

477
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: you're paying, what you're getting a return on your investment.

478
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: Like right now, the Diners have like eighty million dollars

479
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 1: on the injured reserve. Not a great r O. I right,

480
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: if you look at it in that lands, I saw

481
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: someone a baseball writer wrote recently, like we need to

482
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: stop calling players assets. It's like you want to sit

483
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 1: the little kids table. This is billion dollar business. And

484
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: trust me, google asset where I come from, that's a

485
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: positive thing. An asset means you bring something to the table.

486
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: Do you know what you don't want to be? You

487
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 1: don't want to be a liability because you know what

488
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: happens in business with liabilities, They try to get rid

489
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: of them. And here's what I know about Joe Burrow

490
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 1: and Justin Herbert. I think if we pulled NFL general

491
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 1: managers of the greatest assets in the sport of football,

492
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: I think Mahomes and Rogers and you know Rogers a

493
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: little older, but Mahomes and Russell Wilson would probably be

494
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: one too, didn't There'd be countless guys like you know,

495
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald to be coaches like McVeigh, Belichick, Andy, you

496
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: know Peyton would be valued as high we're talking assets.

497
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: I would say Burrow and Herbert would be two of

498
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: the better assets in the league, especially when you factor

499
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 1: in there in rookie contracts, meaning you could spend otherwise

500
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: like there remember Bill Simmons, if you used to read him,

501
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: used to do his trade chart. If we just did

502
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: the trade chart of the most untradeable players in football,

503
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,680
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes would be one by a mile. Russell Wilson

504
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't be far behind. Justin Burton, Joe Burrow would be

505
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: high on the list. They would be very fucking high

506
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: on the list. To uh listen and O'Collins talked about

507
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 1: it a couple of times, like you just watch him,

508
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: you go, he's not that big and you just watch

509
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: him in a Dolphins uniform. He doesn't look that big.

510
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: His arm is not great, so his team's not great.

511
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: So how is it gonna be difficult for him to be,

512
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, extraordinary. We're just gonna have to see. I'm

513
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: gonna have to see more now that their schedule gets

514
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: a little easier, but they're gonna need him to like

515
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: throw for a couple of three yard games and you

516
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: just or at least see it to fift Just see him,

517
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: you know, kind of take over, maybe be down in

518
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: a game. How are it reacts like they're gonna need

519
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: these next two months of evidence. We got a guy,

520
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: because the worst thing you can do in the sport

521
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: of football is go all in on the wrong quarterback.

522
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: It's at your franchise back there, you know, several years.

523
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,719
Speaker 1: And the great part about what they do have they

524
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,199
Speaker 1: have a treasure chest of picks. So even if they

525
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: did screw up the the Arizona Scards screwed up, they

526
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: righted the ship the next year. They just drafted to

527
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: Kyla Murray. Like if Zach will or Trey Lance or

528
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 1: one of these guys is dramatically better than two of

529
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 1: you think trade to h even if it's a second

530
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: round pick, because the worst thing you can do is

531
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 1: hold on to him for too long. I think the

532
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 1: countdowns on and listen, where does Brian Flores come from?

533
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick? What is Bill Belichick cold blooded? Because what

534
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 1: do you have to be in the sport of football

535
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: cold blooded? Who do we kind of consistently called, beside

536
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: Belichick the best coach in NFL history, Bill Walsh? What

537
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: was he known for beside the West Coast offense? Trading

538
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: guys a year early before a year too late. So

539
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: it's a tough business. This isn't the NBA, this isn't baseball.

540
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: There aren't scholarships beside my homes and like Rogers and

541
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, most guys are not on crazy contracts. You

542
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: can get in out of him quickly. It's a great

543
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 1: part about football. That's why all of our teams on

544
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 1: any given year can be good. That's why we have

545
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: that record of like, uh, a new team is won

546
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: a division every year for however many years. To get

547
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 1: the playoffs right, we always have a team go I

548
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: think last of for first. It's a great part of

549
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 1: my football. There's there's a lot of equality because every

550
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,199
Speaker 1: team has money because of the media rights one and

551
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: the way the draft works. If you get a good quarterback,

552
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: if you got Joe Burrow, Like I'm watching the Bengals going.

553
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: I think I tweeted this on Sunday. They're the best

554
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 1: shitty team in the league. And they are you know,

555
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: some pieces away, draft some offensive line and get them

556
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 1: some more skilled guys, improve the defense. They're gonna be good.

557
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: They have a star quarterback. Do you know what the

558
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: San Diego or the l A Chargers are. They're a

559
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 1: coach away from being a playoff team. Don't get rid

560
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: of Anthony Lynn. Now. The question is the Dean span

561
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: is gonna pay any money. Here's what I know about

562
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Brian Flores bring a coach. He beat the

563
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: piss out of the Rams. I mean they came and

564
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: molly whopped him, and I saw him doing to the

565
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: Niners like that. He he runs a tight ship. He

566
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: runs an impressive operation. I am very very impressed. Now

567
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: they just need they have multiple first rounders, multiple second rounders.

568
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: They're in position. But if two ain't the guy, just pivot.

569
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: So what some media people say, you screwed up the

570
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 1: last fifth pick. Now it would hurt because you could

571
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: have got Justin Herbert, but you don't have him water

572
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: into the bridge. It's over. So you just got to decide.

573
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: And these next there four and three, so they got

574
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: nine more games to find out if this guy is

575
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: the guy. I know it's a short period of time,

576
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: but just given the situation that there Inevitill be gonna

577
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: be in come this draft, you gotta know you do.

578
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: I think the heat's on, and I think to uh,

579
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if he would know it. Now, the

580
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: heats on for him, Like he was drafted number five.

581
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: He's got a guaranteed contractor. He's gonna make his money

582
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 1: no matter whether he's traded or stays. But I'm fascinated

583
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: to watch this play out because we just saw with

584
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, and I gave the Cardinals kind of a

585
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: hard time, like, you know, they're kind of doing rose

586
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: and dirty. I mean, we knew about three games in

587
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: last year, right decision. One guy is on a practice squad.

588
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 1: The other guy was Rookie of the Year. If you

589
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: just watch Kyler Murray, you're like, yeah, Roseen can't hold

590
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: his jock. Well, what if you can get Zack Wilson

591
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: or Justin Fields and they're dramatically better? You know, uh

592
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: NFL prospect and too u because I just know this

593
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 1: twelve nine three yards and just kind of a little

594
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 1: piece shooter arm. You know, I watched Herbert, watched Burrow.

595
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: It sure as hell doesn't look like that. Okay, let's

596
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: just fly through some things and uh hit that I

597
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 1: saw on Sunday one is Belichick has taken a lot

598
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: of heat his teams two and five, they're terrible. I

599
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 1: think he was asked a question on local radio about

600
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: if he screwed up the roster and if they should

601
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: have had more talent, and his answer was pretty simple.

602
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: We sold out for the last five or six years,

603
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 1: and in those last five or six years, we won

604
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: three Super Bowls, we went to another, and we went

605
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: to another a f C championship game like that happened

606
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: from fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, last year nineteen and

607
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 1: obviously they lost in the first round of the playoffs.

608
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: Put all their chips in the middle of the table

609
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,959
Speaker 1: and they got three rigs and they went to another

610
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: where when he bench Malcolm Butler, but he and bring

611
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: that for hear it up. But any any franchise would

612
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: take three Super Bowl rings over a five year period

613
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: of time. If that took you to one season that

614
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: you end up gonna go four and twelve sixteen games.

615
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: I think that's where they're at. They had a bunch

616
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: of opt outs. Cam Newton is not any good. Belichick

617
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: didn't draft that well. The last couple of years. It

618
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: was all worth it. We saw it. Nine super Bowl

619
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: appearances over twenty years, they won six. Like it doesn't

620
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: get any better than that. It's never gonna happen again.

621
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: And listen, is Belichick the best GM? No? Has he

622
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: had a lot of hits. Yes? Is he the perfect GM?

623
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: Of course not. He's an elite coach. They lost their quarterback.

624
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: They ended up with Cam Newton and Geared Sidham. Their

625
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: team stinks, not a bad thing. Maybe get to reset,

626
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 1: get some money. Next year, they're gonna have some cat space.

627
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a bunch of draft picks, wheel and

628
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: deal and makes some ship happen. But this this notion

629
00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: that after seven games that we just forget everything that

630
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: happened from two thousand one to two thousand nineteen, it's

631
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: just so classic two thousand twenty, Like the evidence is in.

632
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: He's an all time great. It was all worth it.

633
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: We watched them consistently dominate our teams. Whoever your team is,

634
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: he beat you. And if your team's in the a

635
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: f C, he probably beat you in big games. And

636
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: if you're a Steeler or a Colts fan, he did

637
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: it multiple times. The Broncos like we got him once,

638
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: he did, you know, But it's like, can we just say,

639
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: you know, he's he's do a bad year. Of course,

640
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: Brady's winning this argument. He went to a team stacked.

641
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: They had Evans, they had Godwin, he got Gronk, they

642
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: already had O. J. Howard, they had Bread, they had Arians,

643
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 1: who's a really good coach. They had Todd Bowles, who's

644
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: one of the best defensive coordinators, like it was a

645
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: really good situation. Of course, Brady's winning down there. Worst

646
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 1: case scenario, they were gonna win ten. Best case scenario,

647
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: they win thirteam, like they were gonna be good. Belichick

648
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: was signed Cam Newton do a five game five thousand

649
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: dollars because he just just all the money had slash.

650
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: They didn't really have any other options. There's not any good.

651
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 1: It's okay. It doesn't mean they're gonna be bad forever.

652
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: Who do you bet on more him? Are the Jets? Right?

653
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: Even the Dolphins? Like what if two was not that good?

654
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 1: Just let's just pump the brakes, take a deep breath.

655
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: The evidence is in Belichick's great having a bad year.

656
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: He had a bunch of opt outs and they just

657
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: Salary Cap Hill, Andy Reid and the Chiefs. They ran

658
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 1: early in that game of fake punt against the Jets,

659
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: And to me, that's classic of like how do you

660
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 1: get your guys to focus against a team that's not

661
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: gonna win a game. You do some fun stuff during

662
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: the week and you get him engaged. So you go, hey, guys,

663
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna run a fake punt. You tell him that

664
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: maybe on Wednesday, It's like, okay, cool, I'll get to

665
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: lock in and do something cool on game day because

666
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 1: otherwise we're just gonna treat this like a normal game.

667
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: How do you get a team to focus against the Jets?

668
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 1: I couldn't focus against a team that listen. The coach

669
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: doesn't get up in front of the room and be like, guys,

670
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, they play hard, they got good players.

671
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: The film speaks for itself. They're terrible. So this is

672
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 1: what elite coaches do. They let their guys have some

673
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,919
Speaker 1: fun on weeks like when you play the Ravens, when

674
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: you play the Steelers, when you play a playoff game,

675
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,240
Speaker 1: there's no fucking round. You might install some trick plays,

676
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 1: but it's super focused. On a week like this, it's

677
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: probably gonna be a little looser, but we stay locked

678
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: and loaded homes through five touchdowns, they ran a fake

679
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: punt and they destroyed the Jets. I thought that actually

680
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 1: the Jets might play close because the Chiefs wouldn't care

681
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: that much. But I give Coach Read and just the

682
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 1: Chiefs operation credit for loosening up a little bit on

683
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: a game that would be easy to overlook and just

684
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 1: not really try and they didn't just try like the

685
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:46,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs tweeted out a video of the guy's dancing like

686
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: they showed up to kill the Jets. That was a

687
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: blood bath. You know, watch the Packer Viking game and

688
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,919
Speaker 1: God Dalvin Cook when he gets going, he's a really

689
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 1: really good player. Uh. I I think it's pretty clear

690
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: and not like this breaking news that Russell Wilson's in

691
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: the driver's seat for the m v P. He's on

692
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 1: pace for fifty plus touchdowns his team. You know, we'll

693
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: probably when the dust settles, might be the one seed,

694
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: but even the one or two seed, he's gonna have

695
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 1: a great statistical year. He's never won it, so the

696
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: momentum of the argument's already started and he deserves it. Uh.

697
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: And he was fantastic again against the Niners defense. He

698
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: was pretty good, you know, I mean they were they were.

699
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: The game was tight until Jimmy Garoppolo was just throwing

700
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 1: picks and it just kind of ended. But I said

701
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: it last year when I saw him live. It's just

702
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,760
Speaker 1: the hyperbole there is not like enough. You can't overreact

703
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: to just how sweet this guy is. He's like a

704
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 1: bigger version of Terrell Owens. But He's like Calvin Johnson's height,

705
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:53,240
Speaker 1: but he's thicker. DK Metcalf is just a dominant, dominant force,

706
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: perfect spot, perfect quarterback. But his talent is elite, like

707
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 1: his place be. He's got really good hands. He's good

708
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: at like boxing out corners in like tight windows situations.

709
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 1: He's just a fantastic player. Enjoy watching him play. And

710
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: he's just an absolute monster and a huge reason he's

711
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: gonna win the m v P RUSS is because of DK.

712
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 1: It's like a big reason Tom Brady won the m

713
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: v P, and Oh seven was like Randy. When you

714
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: get a great wide receiver to go with a great quarterback,

715
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: it takes him to another level. The college quarterbacks right

716
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:31,720
Speaker 1: now are just stupid good. I mean, obviously, Trevor Lawrence

717
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: is gonna be the number one overall pick and he's

718
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: got Corona right now. He's not gonna play against Notre Dame.

719
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: His backup DJ. I don't know how to say his

720
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: last name. He's a kid from St. John Bosco in

721
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: southern California. Number one overall player in the class, went

722
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 1: to Clemson. Looks like Ben Roethlisberger, meets like Patrick mahomes arm.

723
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: The guy is an absolute monster. I can't wait to

724
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: watch them play Notre Dame. Actually think that they could

725
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,280
Speaker 1: beat Notre Dame with his true freshman he's a baller.

726
00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: Justin Fields is dramatically better. He's really good kid from

727
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 1: b y U. Big time talent like that. There are

728
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: some big time quarterbacks in this draft class that just

729
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: keep an eye on the b y U guy. Obviously

730
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 1: we all watch Ohio State and Clemson, but the b

731
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: y U guy can play. And the North Dakota State guy,

732
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: we don't have any access to him because the season

733
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,680
Speaker 1: is over. But those four guys, I think there's a

734
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 1: chance four guys going like the top twelve picks. I

735
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: don't have any takes on Danucci or the Eagles. I mean,

736
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: Wentz wasn't very good, but they found a way to win. Uh.

737
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: I was recording a podcast during that game. I mean

738
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: the game just you knew the Eagles were gonna win.

739
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 1: I have zero faith in Dnuci. The Cowboys are just

740
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: headed for a disastrous season. The guy that fought the Bear,

741
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like the Javon Whims. I honestly

742
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 1: had never heard of the guy uh to go up

743
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,399
Speaker 1: to the Saints player give him a haymaker, and then

744
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,280
Speaker 1: the guy look like, are you gonna throw the flag?

745
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: And then for him to give him like several other haymakers.

746
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: One of the dumbest things I've ever seen on a

747
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 1: football field. Like I get sometimes the heat of the

748
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: moment you take a swing if you're in a pile

749
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 1: or a guy shoves you down, but but I never

750
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 1: understand a full on brawl, Like it's just like, you

751
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: guys know the rules. You're gonna get tossed, you're gonna

752
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: get suspended, you're gonna potentially break your hand. You're hitting

753
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: a guy with a helmet on. Um. Just absolutely moronic. Okay,

754
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 1: let's bang out some Middlecoff mail bag questions at John

755
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 1: Middlecoff is the Instagram handle and slide up in and

756
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 1: ask me some questions. I got the game ended, so

757
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 1: like sports centers rerunning and they're just showing all the

758
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 1: Niners injuries. Kittle I are Jimmy I R. I think

759
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: Schefter tweeted like the Niners lead the league with like

760
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: seventy million dollars on injured reserve salary caps two or

761
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: a million, So you do the math, I man their

762
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 1: seasons over question for the podcast. How do you feel

763
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 1: about the Titans trade for Desmond King? Love to hear

764
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 1: your thoughts. I haven't studied Desmond King this year, really

765
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,479
Speaker 1: watched them that much. I always liked them. Uh didn't

766
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: he have? Wasn't he an All Pro a couple of

767
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: years ago? I know that the Titans situation, their corner stink.

768
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,399
Speaker 1: Dori Jackson has been hurt all year and he's not

769
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: a great player. Malcolm Butler is okay, but he can't

770
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: run um. He was the first team All Pro in

771
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 1: two thousand eighteen, second team All Pro. I guess because

772
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 1: he could returns to he's an upgrade for him that

773
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: Their problem has been Clowney, you know, fifteen million dollars.

774
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: Clowney been good this year. Not really. Simmons guy is

775
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: pretty good. They're the front seven solid. I watched him.

776
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 1: They just kind of go as Tanny Hill goes, Like

777
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: Tannehill threw some bad pick. Tanny was awful in that game.

778
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: Their defense, I mean, Joe Burrow pulled some plays out

779
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 1: of his ass. That's what Joe Burrow does. I mean,

780
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, it's just a bowler. I'm telling you, Joe

781
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 1: Burrow is a star now. Will it materialize because he's

782
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. I don't know, but Joe Burrow Band, you

783
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: can't watch him and just go, Holy hell, this guy

784
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: is good. I think Tennessee is you know, Kansas City, Baltimore, Pittsburgh.

785
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,839
Speaker 1: I guess Pittsburgh, then Baltimore, and I guess you would

786
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: put Tennessee over Baltimore because they beat him when the

787
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 1: games mattered. But I don't know. I just Tanny Hill.

788
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 1: I I don't really trust he's like an Alex Smith,

789
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 1: but he can have those bad Alex Smith games. What

790
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: do you think about the Eagles moving on from Wentz?

791
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 1: I don't know what the cat numbers are. They're bad.

792
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,319
Speaker 1: I mean they're they paid him so much money he's

793
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 1: can't the dead cap next year sixty million. Carson Wentz

794
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 1: will be on the Eagles next year, but they can't

795
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 1: keep riding this roller coaster. I understand he's talented, but

796
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: he wouldn't be the first or last talent to do

797
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: to fail in the NFL. Listen, what it was that

798
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson or something said like intellectual derelics, Like, you know,

799
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: talented people fail all the time, like intellectual people that

800
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: don't make it like there are a lot of different

801
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 1: people in different industries. I completely screwed up that saying,

802
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 1: but let me see if I can find it. Nothing

803
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 1: in the world will take away from persistence. Talent will not.

804
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: Nothing is more common than an unsuccessful man with talent.

805
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: Genius will not. Unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education

806
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: will not. The world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence

807
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: and determination alone our omnipotent. My guy Calvin Coolidge, I

808
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: gotta I gotta lit keep it on my phone some sayings.

809
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 1: If I ever want to bust that out. I don't

810
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 1: even know what that has to do with Carson Wentz.

811
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 1: I just really wanted to read that. I guess the

812
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: point is it's true a lot of talented people fail.

813
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: The difference is when you watch the Philadelphia Eagles and listen,

814
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 1: Carson has been all over the place this year. He

815
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,399
Speaker 1: makes some throws where you just go, what the hell

816
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: are you doing? He is playing with fulghum, Greg war Jr.

817
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: Got Her just came back who had been injured and

818
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: also got beat up this summer. There, Jason Peters, I

819
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: was watching the game like I was recording a podcast.

820
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 1: But I have the game in the background, I saw

821
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: him limp off. I mean, they're their teams and shambles

822
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: injury wise, the Niners have them, but they're not far behind.

823
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 1: So I I just think you get developed bad habits

824
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 1: from being some hero ball. They need to get healthy, like,

825
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 1: for example, the forty Niners. I think there's a decent

826
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: chance Jimmy Garoppolo never plays the game for the forty

827
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 1: Niners again, and I think it would be justified. I

828
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,720
Speaker 1: think would like, how do you know how many teams

829
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,720
Speaker 1: in the league would be lined up for Carson Wentz?

830
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: Niners would take him tomorrow, be gules, aren'tetting rid of them?

831
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: Do you know what the Giants would do for Carson Wentz?

832
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: Do you know what Washington would do for Carson Wentz?

833
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 1: You know what Belichick would do for Carson Wentz. You

834
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 1: know what the Jags will do for Carson Wentz. You

835
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: know what Bruce arians would do. I means quarterbacks old

836
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 1: for Carson Wents. Sean Payton his quarterbacks forties about to

837
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:48,600
Speaker 1: go to NBC. Do you know what he do for

838
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,720
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz? Listen, I get it. He's a roller coaster

839
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,320
Speaker 1: and this season has been tough. It's been a head scratcher,

840
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: but I think you can justify it with the craziness

841
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 1: around him. I think he's gonna eventually turn the corner.

842
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: And maybe I don't think. I don't believe like he'll

843
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: ever be probably what I think we thought he was

844
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: gonna be like this all time great kind of mahomesy, right,

845
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 1: because he had that moment that year where he was

846
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: gonna win the m v P and he got towards

847
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: a c L. We thought like, oh my god, this

848
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: guy's gonna revolutionized football. This guy's like Roethlisberger with a

849
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 1: little Brady with a little Manning. This guy's total package.

850
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,839
Speaker 1: And then he wasn't, and then Mahomes became that. I

851
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 1: do think he can rattle off a bunch of Pro

852
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 1: Bowls though, and have a really, really good career. And

853
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 1: they're an offensive organization, they've always been had great offensive players. Uh,

854
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: and how he trust me? I I believe they'll be fine.

855
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: He just needs to. Uh, he's just going through a

856
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: rough patch. I know it's early, but what about Burrow

857
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 1: or Herbert. Listen, I'm a I'm a sucker for a

858
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: West Coast guy, so I'm a big and I like

859
00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:02,240
Speaker 1: a big arm, So I would probably, you know, maybe Herbert,

860
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: but I think Joe Burrows pretty special watching that game

861
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 1: against Tennessee. He's pretty special, man. I think they're both

862
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: pretty special now. Herbert still little raw and needs to

863
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: work on a little bit of touch on some throws.

864
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 1: He can still kind of airmail just some touch throws,

865
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: but he can make throws that Burrow can't make just

866
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 1: because he's got a much stronger arm. I think they're

867
00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 1: both superstars. I mean have a chance to be like

868
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 1: those guys. Burrows a nate calmness in the pocket and

869
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: just when craziness is happening is elite. It really is.

870
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 1: Herbert is just such a good athlete. He can like

871
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,320
Speaker 1: run away and then on the move throw these balls.

872
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: Both of them are big time players. Man. I'd probably

873
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 1: lean Herbert, but again, I'm full disclosure. I'm a sucker

874
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: for a big arm. Sorry for the novel, But are

875
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 1: the forty Niners the most unlucky team in the league?

876
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,320
Speaker 1: I think it was Hardbo's last year when the Niners

877
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,919
Speaker 1: roster was completely decimated by injuries and other random ship.

878
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: Chris Borland retired, Patrick will Us retired out of nowhere.

879
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: I think Alton Smith was released, Who's released the next year?

880
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't remember. Someone created a website where

881
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 1: you couldn't insert your team and it would show you

882
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 1: what you would look like if they were for It

883
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: was a joke. Fast forward this year and it feels

884
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 1: the same way. Many teams are going through injuries, but

885
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: nothing compares to the star power of this team. Had

886
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,240
Speaker 1: lost from Week one to the halfway point of the season.

887
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: They went from super Bowl favorite to top ten pick.

888
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 1: I just think it would be interesting for someone to

889
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 1: go over the roller coasters that is the forty franchise

890
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 1: dominance for a decade or so, transfer a decade, dominant

891
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: for three years, trash for five years, dominant for one year,

892
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: trash immediately after. Yeah, I mean, I don't know what

893
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 1: to say about this year. I think it's clear Kyle's

894
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: a really good coach there four and four. They play

895
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 1: the Packers on Thursday. I would say they probably shouldn't

896
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 1: win that game. They got no George Kittle. Jimmy Garoppolo

897
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: was terrible, Like Jimmy Garoppolo has not been good this year.

898
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: So if Nick Mullins can play like he has coming

899
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:53,720
Speaker 1: out of the bullpen and not like he did against

900
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Like they'll be fine in terms of what

901
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo was. Now George Kittle is the best player

902
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: in the team when Nick you know him, and Nick

903
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:03,880
Speaker 1: Bos are well, Nick Bos already towards a c L.

904
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,720
Speaker 1: Now George Kittle broke his foot, Like that's a fucking disaster.

905
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: I mean, those are two Pro Bowl, all pro level players.

906
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 1: So I don't really know how you overcome that. If

907
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 1: Kyle can beat the Green Bay Packers, if Kyle could

908
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 1: get this team to eight and eight, it's an incredible

909
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 1: coaching job. I mean, they got fifty seventy whatever million

910
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,799
Speaker 1: dollars on injured reserve. All your best players are hurt.

911
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: You're playing with like Jason Varette. I mean you're playing

912
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 1: with scraps who actually Jason versts On a terrible player. Actually,

913
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 1: uh Deebo Samuel's injured. All their running backs are injured

914
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,799
Speaker 1: as wild Yeah, I mean, I I don't really know

915
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: what to say. I do think there's some randomness to it,

916
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,720
Speaker 1: though I always say that with injuries like George Kittle

917
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 1: breaking his foot on a random catch is not something

918
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,800
Speaker 1: because the strength staff or the trainers or the doctors

919
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: see that sometimes, like when Jason Peters gets rolled up

920
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 1: on and he limps off the field, They're like, oh,

921
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: the Eagles, more injuries, what's going on. I don't know,

922
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 1: he got rolled up on, you know, like sometimes Ronnie

923
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 1: Stanley signs a million dollar contract the first game. I

924
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: think it was t J Watt. I remember watching that

925
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 1: on the couch. I'd taken a little edible in the morning.

926
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: I gotta work out first, and I was just remember

927
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 1: looking up and seeing him. Whenever you see an offensive

928
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: lineman slammed the turf, you know they're in pain because

929
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 1: offensive linemen are always injured and you never hear about it,

930
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 1: you never see about it. They're playing with broken fingers,

931
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:32,920
Speaker 1: broken toes, just you know, deep bone bruises. When a

932
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,279
Speaker 1: guy is on the ground slamming the ground, you knew

933
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 1: something was wrong. So when they showed the replay of

934
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 1: that Ronnie Stanley injury and I saw I think rap

935
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 1: sheet or schefter tweeted this morning, I mean it's ligaments.

936
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,879
Speaker 1: It looked fucking awful. I mean, I get queasy when

937
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 1: I see that. Everything you read. This guy's a great,

938
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: high character guy. He's a really good player. He signs

939
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:57,000
Speaker 1: the contract and like everyone and everyone says, like, good

940
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: thing he signed the contract. I think I be if

941
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: I was like shit, I'm not saying like he's glad

942
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,759
Speaker 1: he did. But once you sign the contract, if you're

943
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,959
Speaker 1: a high character guy, you take whenever you do a deal,

944
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 1: think about this, any deal in life. If you're worth

945
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: your salt, you want to live up to the deal,

946
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 1: right like you get someone gives you nine nine million

947
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: dollars or paying like one of the best tackles in

948
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 1: the league. You want to show everyone I'm a pro bowler.

949
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna kick the ship out of everyone. I'm gonna

950
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 1: be an elite player in this league for a while.

951
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make my franchise, my owner, and my coaches

952
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: proud like I'm worth it. And then the first game

953
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: you get your ankle shattered and now you're sitting in

954
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:36,080
Speaker 1: a hospital bed. I just I felt terrible. I mean,

955
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:37,840
Speaker 1: I just I hate that feeling when I see a

956
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: guy get injured. So number one thing, not that I

957
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 1: ever would go back to the NFL, that I I

958
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: hated that feeling big on the sideline next to scouts

959
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:49,520
Speaker 1: or the coaches or whatever. And when the practice would

960
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: just go silent when a guy would just be laying there.

961
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 1: It's the worst feeling in the world. I don't know

962
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 1: how these gms and these coaches do it. I guess

963
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,359
Speaker 1: you get numb to it. I don't know. I mean,

964
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 1: I get numb to a lot of things in life,

965
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 1: like lose money, to have a bad business deal, get fired, whatever.

966
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 1: That helpless feeling of being in football, And it's probably

967
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 1: it's like this in any sport, but it happens the

968
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 1: most of football because they're the most injuries. And just

969
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: seeing Nick Bosa laying on the ground with a torn

970
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,760
Speaker 1: a c l seeing Ronnie Stanley with an ankle shattered,

971
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 1: seeing Odell Beckham have to get carted off the field,

972
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: like I just, I just it makes me queezy even

973
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 1: thinking about it. I just despised that feeling. I have

974
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 1: a question for the mail bag. Given the this week's

975
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: awful performance against the Seahawks, I think it's safe to

976
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: say that Jimmy isn't the quarterback of the future for

977
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 1: the forty Niners. With the off season being one of

978
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: the best opportunities to go after a quarterback in recent memory,

979
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 1: whether through free agency or in the draft, do you

980
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: think Shanahan and Lynch will acknowledge the quarterback issue this

981
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: offseason or ignore it an attempt to build up around Jimmy.

982
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 1: I think they make a trade. I think Sam Donald

983
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: would be in play. I actually think they would if

984
00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: they got rid of Daniel Jones. I think they've kind

985
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:01,879
Speaker 1: of like Daniel Jones. Now you could get Daniel Jones

986
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 1: and keep Jimmy. I think the hard part is if

987
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 1: you're gonna draft a quarterback. Jimmy's on a pretty team

988
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: friendly deal. He makes them like the low twenties, and

989
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: you can cut him at any moment without paying him anything.

990
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:14,919
Speaker 1: So I would imagine that the Niners they're gonna draft

991
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: a guy Jimmy Garoppolo would be on the roster if

992
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,839
Speaker 1: they like the thing that people have asked about Matt

993
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 1: Ryan and Kirk Cousins. Those guys aren't getting cut and

994
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,840
Speaker 1: the Niners. The Niners couldn't elevate Kevin White this week

995
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: off off the practice squad. They didn't have enough money

996
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 1: on their cap. Think about that and most teams. I

997
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 1: saw someone today tweet the Saints who traded for the

998
00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 1: Niners Kwan Alexander today, the linebacker who makes a lot

999
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 1: of money. In two thousand twenty one, the cap is

1000
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,319
Speaker 1: gonna be between like a hundred eighty and hundred nine million,

1001
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 1: depending on how the Corona finances play out. Their cap

1002
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,279
Speaker 1: was two hundred and sixty five or seventy million dollars. Now,

1003
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,720
Speaker 1: obviously in football you can cut guys, But think about that.

1004
00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: That would be a problem if the cat because this

1005
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: year was two, if Corona had never happened, next year's

1006
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: cap would be like to fifteen. They've got a couple

1007
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:06,800
Speaker 1: of guys and get Drew Brees to be out the books.

1008
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 1: They get down easy, they're gonna have to cut I

1009
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:13,359
Speaker 1: mean eighty million dollars or your change some money. It's

1010
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem. As a lifelong Giants fan, the

1011
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 1: last decade has been rough. After the Monday night game,

1012
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,200
Speaker 1: two things are clear. We found our head coach, but

1013
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 1: we haven't found our quarterback. I think the only position

1014
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 1: is the fire Gettleman and draft a quarterback. The problem is,

1015
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:32,360
Speaker 1: I really believe in Judge. Do you think replacing Gettleman

1016
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: will ruin Judge his future with the team. I can't

1017
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,280
Speaker 1: think of any examples where that worked in the past.

1018
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: Here's the biggest issue, when you do ship like this

1019
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 1: is when you hire the head coach and you let

1020
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 1: the general manager hire him. You can't then the following

1021
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 1: year when you've just been really mad, get mad at

1022
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 1: the team's not very good and they get rid of

1023
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: Dave Gettleman, because then what do you do with general manager?

1024
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: Do you, as the Morrow family, then just go interview

1025
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,360
Speaker 1: GMS and then hope that he gets along with Judge.

1026
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 1: Do you let Judge dictate who you hire? Why didn't

1027
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 1: you If you're just gonna hire Judge, hire a GM

1028
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:13,280
Speaker 1: than two with him. So you can just either hire

1029
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: Judge first, or hire a GM and then hire Judge.

1030
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:20,240
Speaker 1: Because I'm with you, Gettleman's gots to go. He drafted

1031
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,240
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones six overall. I think we can all acknowledge

1032
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,040
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. I remember shooting on the pick. He's not,

1033
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:30,399
Speaker 1: by any means a scrub. He's an NFL player. He's

1034
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 1: a second round pick right to me, if you had

1035
00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 1: drafted Jones in the second round, I think they drafted

1036
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 1: him six overall. I love say Kwan Barkley, very very

1037
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,560
Speaker 1: talented player, won't pass for tech, but very great, great runner,

1038
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 1: great catcher of the football. You can't draft him second overall,

1039
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 1: that can't happen. It just can't. Not when you need

1040
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:53,359
Speaker 1: a million things. That's that's dumb, that's bad value. That's

1041
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:56,800
Speaker 1: not understanding the way the draft works. So Dave Gettleman's

1042
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 1: gots to go. But then what do you do with Judge?

1043
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 1: Like you said, it never works, So then you bring

1044
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:03,759
Speaker 1: a GM. What if he doesn't like Judge? Would have

1045
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 1: Judge doesn't like him? What about their working relationship? Because

1046
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 1: your most the most strongest relationship you need on your team,

1047
00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,560
Speaker 1: right is the general manager in your coach and the

1048
00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 1: coach and the quarterback. And in a perfect world, they

1049
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: all three worked together, like Veach, Andy Mahomes, all buddies,

1050
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,360
Speaker 1: all on the same page, all working for a common goal. Mahomes,

1051
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 1: what do you need, Veach? This is what I like,

1052
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 1: Coach read They're all together, John Snyder, Pete, Russ, group

1053
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:34,719
Speaker 1: all together. When I think quarterbacks, I closed my head.

1054
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,759
Speaker 1: I think Russ, Pete, John Snyder, Vach, Andy Mahomes, just

1055
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 1: like a group effort. Even say what you want about Brady,

1056
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,560
Speaker 1: like they're all kind of in it together, Jason Light,

1057
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,919
Speaker 1: Brady and Arians. It's a little different. It's a little

1058
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: like kind of a renegade combination. But the Seattle and

1059
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 1: the Kansas City wonner organic right, So the GM that

1060
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 1: drafted him, I guess Beach didn't technically drafted him, but

1061
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 1: he was on the staff and he loved him. The

1062
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 1: head coach Sam ed co in the quarterback. They just

1063
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,600
Speaker 1: there becomes a lot of we. We used to use

1064
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 1: word loyalty a lot, and I think loyalty is one

1065
00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 1: of the is a word that gets to like, uh,

1066
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 1: liberally thrown around, like to me, loyalty to gain loyalty,

1067
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 1: like I'm loyal to people that I've known for a

1068
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 1: long time or trust, but to develop trust it takes time.

1069
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: So like I wouldn't like Howard arians and Brady be

1070
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 1: loyal to each other. We're Pete and Russ. They've been

1071
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,319
Speaker 1: together for a decade. Mahomes and Andy, like even though

1072
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:30,919
Speaker 1: it's only been four or five years or whatever, they

1073
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,759
Speaker 1: know that they're just like in the bunker together. That's

1074
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 1: where I see, Like, do you think Jimmy Garoppolo thinks

1075
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,879
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is loyalty to him? I mean he's thinking

1076
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,839
Speaker 1: like this guy gonna cut me. Jared Goff's probably like, well,

1077
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 1: McVeigh likes me. Luckily, my contract enables me not to

1078
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 1: get cut, because if I look like it against the

1079
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:48,279
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, I have the last couple of weeks, I'd

1080
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 1: be in trouble. Quick got take. Jared Goff does not

1081
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: look good this year. He looks all over the map.

1082
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 1: And that's why you don't pay average quarterbacks huge money

1083
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 1: because you don't want to get these situations of where

1084
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:02,919
Speaker 1: you don't like them and then you can't get away from.

1085
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 1: It's back to Carson Wentz, like I can live with it.

1086
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 1: This talent is immense, Like at the end of the day,

1087
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 1: Jared Goffs talent doesn't sniff Carson Wentz is so like

1088
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 1: I can live with come of Carson Wentz's problems. It's

1089
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,239
Speaker 1: like DC River says, you gotta be your problems. Your

1090
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 1: talent has to outweigh your problems. It's like the Antonio

1091
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 1: Browns why keeps getting chances? Well your contract? If your

1092
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 1: contract outweigh your talent, that sucks because then you kind

1093
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:28,680
Speaker 1: of start weighing down a franchise. If your talent outweigh

1094
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,600
Speaker 1: your contract or they're equal, the team feels good like

1095
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 1: you think the Rams give a ship. What they pay

1096
00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:37,200
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald now paying him twenty million million whatever, they

1097
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 1: don't care, Go kick ass nine, We love you. No

1098
00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: one even thinks about it when you have a sweet

1099
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:43,800
Speaker 1: player and he's dominant, like the Niners, What are you

1100
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 1: paying Kiddle? I don't know. They didn't even care. What

1101
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 1: are you paying? Uh Bobby Wagner with Seattle like they

1102
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: don't Honey Badger with you know, uh with Kansas City.

1103
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,279
Speaker 1: You don't think about it like that when you're when

1104
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:56,799
Speaker 1: you have dominant players and you pay him a lot

1105
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:58,759
Speaker 1: of money, like go kick ass, take names. We got

1106
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:01,800
Speaker 1: your back. Well, when it's like, oh god, we're paying

1107
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 1: Jared Goff, that's not Kevin Clark tweeted out this weekend.

1108
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,440
Speaker 1: Jared Goff is the third highest paid player in the

1109
00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: league this year. That ain't good. Appreciate everyone listening again.
