I got them. We 40 00:01:49,628 --> 00:01:52,188 Speaker 1: go to Barclays and Caitlyn Clark is not playing and 41 00:01:52,228 --> 00:01:54,428 Speaker 1: she's injured with a groin and she sat out the 42 00:01:54,588 --> 00:01:57,828 Speaker 1: entire damn game. We still loved it. Breonna Stewart amazing 43 00:01:57,908 --> 00:02:00,668 Speaker 1: the scene at Barclay's sold out. There's my daughter and 44 00:02:00,708 --> 00:02:03,588 Speaker 1: I that Zevelyn. She's going into fourth grade. And if 45 00:02:03,628 --> 00:02:06,028 Speaker 1: you look over my like over my left shoulder, so 46 00:02:06,108 --> 00:02:10,708 Speaker 1: camera right. Micah Parsons was courtside from them and they 47 00:02:10,708 --> 00:02:13,388 Speaker 1: put him on the Jumbo drawn and he got the 48 00:02:13,668 --> 00:02:17,028 Speaker 1: Jesus boot out of him by Barklayson with a lot 49 00:02:17,028 --> 00:02:19,348 Speaker 1: of Giants fans. But he was a good dude about it, 50 00:02:19,588 --> 00:02:23,028 Speaker 1: and the Liberty put on an amazing show. Caitlyn Clark notwithstanding. 51 00:02:22,748 --> 00:02:23,788 Speaker 3: That's fantastic, Kyle. 52 00:02:23,908 --> 00:02:26,748 Speaker 2: Does everyone play basketball like she's actively asking you to 53 00:02:26,788 --> 00:02:27,588 Speaker 2: go to these games? 54 00:02:27,748 --> 00:02:30,068 Speaker 1: Yes, she does. She wants to go and she was 55 00:02:30,228 --> 00:02:34,148 Speaker 1: very very upset that Kaitlyn Clark got injured the night before. Yeah, 56 00:02:34,468 --> 00:02:36,868 Speaker 1: but it's okay. What can you do that? Sports Brianna 57 00:02:36,868 --> 00:02:38,588 Speaker 1: Stewart was awesome. It was a great night. Great night. 58 00:02:38,668 --> 00:02:39,428 Speaker 3: That's so cool, Kyle. 59 00:02:39,428 --> 00:02:41,668 Speaker 2: Where to go and Michah Parsons showing up for the 60 00:02:41,708 --> 00:02:45,028 Speaker 2: stars as well, exactly. We got to talk about him 61 00:02:45,028 --> 00:02:47,028 Speaker 2: today and the state of the nation with the Cowboys. 62 00:02:47,028 --> 00:02:50,068 Speaker 2: But first some news that emerged overnight from our guy 63 00:02:50,268 --> 00:02:53,468 Speaker 2: NFL insider Tom Pella Sero. He's reporting that eight time 64 00:02:53,508 --> 00:02:56,908 Speaker 2: Pro Bowl Van Miller is signing. 65 00:02:56,588 --> 00:02:58,748 Speaker 3: With the contending Commanders. 66 00:02:58,788 --> 00:03:01,508 Speaker 2: They had been talked about that Miller in his epic 67 00:03:01,548 --> 00:03:03,868 Speaker 2: past rushing era was going to seek out a team 68 00:03:04,068 --> 00:03:06,628 Speaker 2: that was in need of a guy like that coming 69 00:03:06,628 --> 00:03:08,788 Speaker 2: off a defensive line. Now Miller is a super Bowl 70 00:03:08,868 --> 00:03:11,628 Speaker 2: champion with the Broncos and the Rams. Through his first 71 00:03:11,868 --> 00:03:15,868 Speaker 2: shout out to the Hogs by saying what's good. And 72 00:03:15,908 --> 00:03:19,148 Speaker 2: that's a photoshopped image of von Miller playing in a 73 00:03:19,188 --> 00:03:19,988 Speaker 2: Washington Commandagers. 74 00:03:19,988 --> 00:03:23,268 Speaker 3: That's what it would look like everybody. So Rashan you, 75 00:03:23,548 --> 00:03:24,428 Speaker 3: I assume. 76 00:03:24,188 --> 00:03:27,068 Speaker 2: No von Miller, You've played adjacent to him in your 77 00:03:27,068 --> 00:03:29,108 Speaker 2: time in the NFL. What do you make of his 78 00:03:29,308 --> 00:03:31,348 Speaker 2: choice to go to Washington and the Commanders picking him 79 00:03:31,428 --> 00:03:32,028 Speaker 2: up on defense. 80 00:03:32,068 --> 00:03:33,548 Speaker 5: I think it's a smart move for him. I think 81 00:03:33,548 --> 00:03:35,948 Speaker 5: it's a smart move for the Commanders. I mean, they 82 00:03:36,228 --> 00:03:39,468 Speaker 5: were the oldest team in the NFL last year. In 83 00:03:39,468 --> 00:03:42,708 Speaker 5: in addition to a von Miller to the defense, they 84 00:03:42,748 --> 00:03:45,628 Speaker 5: stay the oldest team in the NFL. So I think 85 00:03:45,668 --> 00:03:49,308 Speaker 5: what they're doing is putting their They're counting on their 86 00:03:49,348 --> 00:03:53,028 Speaker 5: defense and relying on their offense and especially and now 87 00:03:53,108 --> 00:03:55,308 Speaker 5: a Jaden Daniels. And how I look at it is this, 88 00:03:55,868 --> 00:03:58,788 Speaker 5: when I order something from Amazon, I don't rely on 89 00:03:58,868 --> 00:04:00,628 Speaker 5: it to show up If it says gonna be there 90 00:04:00,708 --> 00:04:03,708 Speaker 5: Friday evening. I count on it to show up. And 91 00:04:03,748 --> 00:04:05,828 Speaker 5: so what I'm knowing there's the commanders now is I'm 92 00:04:05,868 --> 00:04:09,788 Speaker 5: counting on the defense to actually carry us, and then 93 00:04:09,868 --> 00:04:12,548 Speaker 5: that allows me to rely on my office. Now, when 94 00:04:12,548 --> 00:04:15,468 Speaker 5: you rely on something, you're depending it with full trust. Now, 95 00:04:15,468 --> 00:04:18,148 Speaker 5: there was a dating phase with Jada Daniels first year. 96 00:04:18,548 --> 00:04:20,828 Speaker 5: Now they're getting into a marriage. And to trust somebody. 97 00:04:20,868 --> 00:04:23,028 Speaker 5: You don't need to trust somebody with your money if 98 00:04:23,028 --> 00:04:24,988 Speaker 5: you don't give them your credit card. You don't need 99 00:04:25,028 --> 00:04:29,188 Speaker 5: to trust somebody with your food unless you give them 100 00:04:29,428 --> 00:04:31,948 Speaker 5: the utensils. And you don't need to trust anybody with 101 00:04:31,948 --> 00:04:33,788 Speaker 5: your heart until you give it to them. 102 00:04:33,828 --> 00:04:34,508 Speaker 6: So what did they do? 103 00:04:34,628 --> 00:04:38,188 Speaker 5: Now They've given Jaden Daniels the true keys to the ship. 104 00:04:38,268 --> 00:04:41,348 Speaker 5: So I think it's good for the commanders to pick 105 00:04:41,428 --> 00:04:42,228 Speaker 5: up a von Miller. 106 00:04:42,428 --> 00:04:43,828 Speaker 6: He's a stout player, for sure. 107 00:04:44,188 --> 00:04:47,028 Speaker 7: I like it too, Rushat, And you said counting on this, 108 00:04:47,268 --> 00:04:49,748 Speaker 7: counting on that. I think a lot of people may 109 00:04:49,788 --> 00:04:52,468 Speaker 7: assume that when you have somebody like von Miller come in, 110 00:04:52,508 --> 00:04:54,548 Speaker 7: you're counting on him to be the old von Miller. 111 00:04:54,588 --> 00:04:54,908 Speaker 6: I'm not. 112 00:04:55,348 --> 00:04:56,988 Speaker 7: He's not going to be the old von Miller. Guys 113 00:04:57,308 --> 00:04:59,588 Speaker 7: and talking about the word counting. He's going to be 114 00:04:59,588 --> 00:05:02,988 Speaker 7: on a snap count. He's going to be a situational player. 115 00:05:03,028 --> 00:05:04,828 Speaker 7: He's going to be somebody if you look get dan 116 00:05:04,908 --> 00:05:08,548 Speaker 7: Quinn and that defense. Last year, they blitzed more in 117 00:05:08,628 --> 00:05:12,108 Speaker 7: dan Quinn's career than he's used to blitzing. He doesn't 118 00:05:12,108 --> 00:05:14,068 Speaker 7: want to blitz on third downs, guys, he doesn't want 119 00:05:14,068 --> 00:05:15,988 Speaker 7: to blitz on first and second. But last year he 120 00:05:16,068 --> 00:05:18,308 Speaker 7: had to bring some pressure and the only way that 121 00:05:18,348 --> 00:05:20,468 Speaker 7: he could do it is by sending up blitz. 122 00:05:20,508 --> 00:05:22,108 Speaker 6: Now you have somebody like von Miller. 123 00:05:22,308 --> 00:05:24,268 Speaker 7: He's not gonna play on first down, he's probably not 124 00:05:24,268 --> 00:05:27,188 Speaker 7: gonna play on second down, but you bet on third 125 00:05:27,228 --> 00:05:29,628 Speaker 7: down when dan Quinn wants to drop coverage and drop 126 00:05:29,788 --> 00:05:31,788 Speaker 7: zone that you're going to see. I guess the number 127 00:05:31,828 --> 00:05:34,388 Speaker 7: twenty four, he said, Jamie, you're gonna see whatever number 128 00:05:34,468 --> 00:05:36,188 Speaker 7: von Miller is playing, you're going to see him coming 129 00:05:36,228 --> 00:05:39,068 Speaker 7: off the edge. Now, this reminds me a lot when 130 00:05:39,108 --> 00:05:40,708 Speaker 7: we signed Dwight Freenie when I was with the San 131 00:05:40,708 --> 00:05:44,388 Speaker 7: Diego Chargers, we signed Dwight Freeney and he was after 132 00:05:44,428 --> 00:05:47,828 Speaker 7: he spent eleven years in Indianapolis. We didn't sign Dwight 133 00:05:47,908 --> 00:05:50,308 Speaker 7: Freeney to play first, second, and third down. It was 134 00:05:50,388 --> 00:05:54,708 Speaker 7: just situational awareness, and I think it's a great fit 135 00:05:54,748 --> 00:05:56,948 Speaker 7: for somebody like von Miller, who at this point in time, 136 00:05:56,988 --> 00:06:00,188 Speaker 7: I think he's ring chasing you. You accomplish everything you 137 00:06:00,228 --> 00:06:02,708 Speaker 7: wanted to accomplish in this game by being a player. 138 00:06:02,908 --> 00:06:05,268 Speaker 7: Now go get as many supposes you can. And so 139 00:06:05,308 --> 00:06:09,188 Speaker 7: I like this matchup, this matching with the Commanders on 140 00:06:09,268 --> 00:06:09,788 Speaker 7: von Miller. 141 00:06:10,068 --> 00:06:12,108 Speaker 1: This is a really meaningful signing for me. The message 142 00:06:12,188 --> 00:06:14,028 Speaker 1: really clear to me is that the Commanders are trying 143 00:06:14,028 --> 00:06:16,628 Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl this year. This year, let's 144 00:06:16,628 --> 00:06:19,188 Speaker 1: get it done now that you don't bring in von 145 00:06:19,268 --> 00:06:22,188 Speaker 1: Miller to be a building block or a piece to 146 00:06:22,268 --> 00:06:26,028 Speaker 1: the future. This is a very specific player and phase 147 00:06:26,108 --> 00:06:28,508 Speaker 1: of his career. The Rams did the same thing with 148 00:06:28,588 --> 00:06:31,228 Speaker 1: von Miller, it worked. The Bills tried the same thing 149 00:06:31,228 --> 00:06:34,188 Speaker 1: with von Miller, it didn't work. And dwy Freedez's a 150 00:06:34,228 --> 00:06:36,668 Speaker 1: perfect example. It wasn't just the Chargers that sign him. 151 00:06:36,668 --> 00:06:38,748 Speaker 1: Man Side is a Hall of Famer and in the last 152 00:06:38,748 --> 00:06:41,588 Speaker 1: four years of his career was on four separate teams, 153 00:06:41,948 --> 00:06:43,708 Speaker 1: each one of them trying to get him in. It's 154 00:06:43,748 --> 00:06:46,228 Speaker 1: like a basketball equivalent of like, just come off the 155 00:06:46,268 --> 00:06:48,548 Speaker 1: bench and hit a couple threes. That's all we want 156 00:06:48,588 --> 00:06:50,508 Speaker 1: you to do. We don't need you to build our 157 00:06:50,548 --> 00:06:53,828 Speaker 1: defense around anything like that. They're bringing in. So when 158 00:06:53,868 --> 00:06:57,468 Speaker 1: they play Philadelphia in the playoffs, von Miller gets a 159 00:06:57,508 --> 00:06:59,828 Speaker 1: sack against Jalen Hurts, and that would be worth the 160 00:07:00,068 --> 00:07:03,668 Speaker 1: entire signing. And I think they're saying right now, we 161 00:07:03,748 --> 00:07:06,348 Speaker 1: brought in a new tackle, we're bringing in a new 162 00:07:06,348 --> 00:07:09,068 Speaker 1: pass rusher. We're going to figure out our wide receivers somehow, 163 00:07:09,428 --> 00:07:12,908 Speaker 1: but let's do it now with the cheap quarterback. And 164 00:07:12,948 --> 00:07:15,588 Speaker 1: don't laugh about the Commanders winning the Super Bowl this year. 165 00:07:16,108 --> 00:07:18,268 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow was in the Super Bowl in his second year. 166 00:07:18,828 --> 00:07:21,308 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes won the Super Bowl in his second year 167 00:07:21,308 --> 00:07:25,188 Speaker 1: as a starter. This is the new normal, cash in now. 168 00:07:25,268 --> 00:07:29,588 Speaker 1: There's no like well, Jayden will continue to evolve and 169 00:07:29,628 --> 00:07:33,468 Speaker 1: will finally No, it's a now league. Now, you don't 170 00:07:33,588 --> 00:07:36,308 Speaker 1: need to sign von Miller. You'll probably be a perfectly 171 00:07:36,308 --> 00:07:39,868 Speaker 1: fine defense without him. But it's that one thing where 172 00:07:39,908 --> 00:07:43,308 Speaker 1: in the divisional round or the title game he hits 173 00:07:43,308 --> 00:07:45,588 Speaker 1: a corner three and you haven't heard from him in 174 00:07:45,628 --> 00:07:47,828 Speaker 1: two and a half months, but he's been on the roster. 175 00:07:48,308 --> 00:07:51,548 Speaker 1: Von's been in big games and sacked Hall of Fame quarterbacks. 176 00:07:52,108 --> 00:07:54,508 Speaker 1: I think it says the message is very clear. We 177 00:07:54,548 --> 00:07:56,668 Speaker 1: want every single little piece, we want to win the 178 00:07:56,668 --> 00:07:59,228 Speaker 1: Super Bowl this year, and we're bringing in a guy 179 00:07:59,228 --> 00:08:01,828 Speaker 1: who was trying to do it with his third team. 180 00:08:02,028 --> 00:08:03,748 Speaker 7: Well, I like that, KB, and I'm going to make 181 00:08:03,748 --> 00:08:06,628 Speaker 7: a basketball reference to his comments. You bring in somebody 182 00:08:06,668 --> 00:08:09,028 Speaker 7: like Ray Allen to the Boston Celtics and he's later 183 00:08:09,068 --> 00:08:11,228 Speaker 7: in his career and then he hits a game winning, 184 00:08:11,388 --> 00:08:14,388 Speaker 7: championship winning three pointer when you really need him. That's 185 00:08:14,388 --> 00:08:16,268 Speaker 7: the type of signing this is, in my opinion with 186 00:08:16,388 --> 00:08:19,508 Speaker 7: Von Miller. Now, we talk about Duo's earlier in the week, 187 00:08:19,508 --> 00:08:21,948 Speaker 7: and we talked about the connection between a wide receiver 188 00:08:22,308 --> 00:08:25,708 Speaker 7: and his quarterback and why the nonverbals in that situation 189 00:08:25,988 --> 00:08:29,028 Speaker 7: are come and play for the offense defensively. That version 190 00:08:29,148 --> 00:08:32,068 Speaker 7: is this, we have a connection and an understanding where 191 00:08:32,108 --> 00:08:33,628 Speaker 7: I don't have to worry about. 192 00:08:33,348 --> 00:08:34,148 Speaker 6: That side of the field. 193 00:08:34,388 --> 00:08:36,748 Speaker 7: The royal revis was that for the Jets, I don't 194 00:08:36,748 --> 00:08:39,708 Speaker 7: got to worry about wherever he's at. For Bobby Wagner 195 00:08:39,748 --> 00:08:41,588 Speaker 7: in the middle. Now I don't have to worry about 196 00:08:41,588 --> 00:08:43,548 Speaker 7: where von Miller's at. I don't have to worry about 197 00:08:43,588 --> 00:08:46,388 Speaker 7: Jalen hurt scrambling to that side. I can just worry 198 00:08:46,388 --> 00:08:49,268 Speaker 7: about what's opposite of him. So this eliminates a whole 199 00:08:49,308 --> 00:08:51,548 Speaker 7: bunch of problems that could arise for. 200 00:08:51,508 --> 00:08:52,508 Speaker 6: The Commander's defense. 201 00:08:52,548 --> 00:08:55,268 Speaker 7: Now that you have somebody like von Miller aka Ray 202 00:08:55,308 --> 00:08:57,748 Speaker 7: Allen shooting on one side of the one side of 203 00:08:57,788 --> 00:08:58,148 Speaker 7: the field. 204 00:08:58,228 --> 00:09:00,308 Speaker 2: Got I just literally went into a deep dive in 205 00:09:00,348 --> 00:09:02,668 Speaker 2: my brain of like the really good Celtics team circle 206 00:09:02,708 --> 00:09:05,508 Speaker 2: like twenty eight to fourteen, with like now on the team, 207 00:09:05,588 --> 00:09:08,108 Speaker 2: Like who's the Kevin Garnett, Who's It's just you just 208 00:09:08,228 --> 00:09:10,308 Speaker 2: rattled my brain and that Ray Allen from the corner. 209 00:09:10,308 --> 00:09:11,388 Speaker 3: It was perfect, Mansie. 210 00:09:11,828 --> 00:09:14,028 Speaker 2: The Commanders, as we all know, split the regular season 211 00:09:14,108 --> 00:09:18,348 Speaker 2: series with the division winning NAY Super Bowl champion Eagles. 212 00:09:18,788 --> 00:09:21,068 Speaker 2: They lost in the NFC title games with the Birds obviously, 213 00:09:21,148 --> 00:09:23,428 Speaker 2: who went on to win Super Bowl fifty nine. Okay, 214 00:09:23,468 --> 00:09:26,428 Speaker 2: so now they've quote unquote bolstered their pass rush, if 215 00:09:26,428 --> 00:09:28,828 Speaker 2: you will, if we're all truly acknowledging that maybe it'll 216 00:09:28,828 --> 00:09:31,188 Speaker 2: come mostly on third down, and when he comes out, 217 00:09:31,308 --> 00:09:33,068 Speaker 2: he's supposed to don'tk on everybody, and that's. 218 00:09:32,988 --> 00:09:35,068 Speaker 3: Von Miller Rashan. 219 00:09:35,108 --> 00:09:37,548 Speaker 2: I'll ask you look at the commanders, what is the 220 00:09:37,588 --> 00:09:39,548 Speaker 2: difference maker? What is going to have to be the 221 00:09:39,628 --> 00:09:44,108 Speaker 2: secret sauce for the commanders to usurp the Philadelphia Eagles 222 00:09:44,148 --> 00:09:45,468 Speaker 2: and win this tough division. 223 00:09:45,908 --> 00:09:49,268 Speaker 5: Well, already history is kind of planning their favor as 224 00:09:49,308 --> 00:09:52,628 Speaker 5: we know in the NFC East, there has not been 225 00:09:52,748 --> 00:09:57,068 Speaker 5: any team that's consecutively won the division outside of twenty 226 00:09:57,108 --> 00:09:58,948 Speaker 5: years now, and that was Philadelphia Eagles. 227 00:09:58,948 --> 00:10:02,028 Speaker 6: So it's back and forth. This is a tough division. 228 00:10:02,188 --> 00:10:04,068 Speaker 5: I think right now they're going to have to lean 229 00:10:04,108 --> 00:10:07,188 Speaker 5: heavily on their run game, controlling the clock. You got 230 00:10:07,188 --> 00:10:10,308 Speaker 5: a veteran team, which we know, you have more experience, 231 00:10:10,388 --> 00:10:12,268 Speaker 5: you're savvier, but a little. 232 00:10:12,108 --> 00:10:14,108 Speaker 6: Bit longer in the tooth. You can get tired. There's 233 00:10:14,148 --> 00:10:16,188 Speaker 6: a long season. You got to keep everybody healthy. 234 00:10:16,468 --> 00:10:21,148 Speaker 5: Conservative, but they are a physical, heavy handed team. I'm 235 00:10:21,148 --> 00:10:23,588 Speaker 5: saying right now, especially when we bring over Deebo Samuel, 236 00:10:23,988 --> 00:10:26,668 Speaker 5: what is he right, He's a He's a specimen of 237 00:10:26,708 --> 00:10:29,868 Speaker 5: a player that is a running back, slash receiver, slash 238 00:10:29,948 --> 00:10:30,748 Speaker 5: utility player. 239 00:10:31,508 --> 00:10:33,908 Speaker 6: You know, he's like a larger person Harvin. He could 240 00:10:33,948 --> 00:10:34,428 Speaker 6: do it all. 241 00:10:34,588 --> 00:10:37,148 Speaker 5: And so when you think about this kind of team 242 00:10:37,188 --> 00:10:38,508 Speaker 5: and how they built to play, and I know they're 243 00:10:38,508 --> 00:10:40,148 Speaker 5: gonna pay Scary Terry at some point. 244 00:10:40,268 --> 00:10:42,228 Speaker 1: You believe that, I believe that you can't. 245 00:10:42,228 --> 00:10:44,788 Speaker 5: There's no way we can be talking about the Commanders 246 00:10:44,788 --> 00:10:48,108 Speaker 5: in chasing a chip without bringing Intary. 247 00:10:48,188 --> 00:10:50,708 Speaker 6: It's going to happen. Hallelujah. 248 00:10:50,468 --> 00:10:52,708 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a step of what I said yesterday with show. 249 00:10:52,708 --> 00:10:53,428 Speaker 6: That's what I'm talking about. 250 00:10:53,428 --> 00:10:55,148 Speaker 7: What number one you just said, you got to you 251 00:10:55,188 --> 00:10:58,028 Speaker 7: gotta sign Scary Terry. And the reason why is because 252 00:10:58,068 --> 00:11:00,268 Speaker 7: if you watch the NFC Championship, you saw how the 253 00:11:00,308 --> 00:11:02,908 Speaker 7: Eagles were able to take away Scary Terry. You can't 254 00:11:03,148 --> 00:11:06,188 Speaker 7: depend on one one receiver out there if you're the Commanders, 255 00:11:06,228 --> 00:11:08,668 Speaker 7: because you had to resort to zach Ertz. 256 00:11:08,468 --> 00:11:09,908 Speaker 6: A lot in the NFC Championship. 257 00:11:09,948 --> 00:11:12,588 Speaker 7: So you need to have Deebo, Samuel zach Ertz and 258 00:11:12,708 --> 00:11:16,108 Speaker 7: Skaritarry out there to even get a chance go to 259 00:11:16,388 --> 00:11:18,868 Speaker 7: the playoffs and win this division. Now, when I look 260 00:11:18,908 --> 00:11:22,148 Speaker 7: at what they need to do, Number one, Jayden can't 261 00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:25,148 Speaker 7: have as sophomore slump. That's number one, Like you have 262 00:11:25,228 --> 00:11:28,188 Speaker 7: to be able to figure out how am I going 263 00:11:28,268 --> 00:11:30,228 Speaker 7: to how am I going to structure this offense so 264 00:11:30,268 --> 00:11:33,748 Speaker 7: that he continues and builds off of a strong rookie campaign. 265 00:11:34,108 --> 00:11:37,548 Speaker 6: Jaden Daniels has to be electric. Number Two, you have. 266 00:11:37,588 --> 00:11:40,348 Speaker 7: To be able to keep those athletic quarterbacks that you 267 00:11:40,428 --> 00:11:43,028 Speaker 7: have in your division in the pocket. That's why they're 268 00:11:43,068 --> 00:11:45,988 Speaker 7: signing of von Miller is so important, and it's crucial 269 00:11:46,268 --> 00:11:49,188 Speaker 7: for their success this year because you have a guy 270 00:11:49,268 --> 00:11:51,748 Speaker 7: now that can keep these guys in the pocket without 271 00:11:51,828 --> 00:11:55,468 Speaker 7: sending up Blitz or possibly keeping Bobby Wagner Frankly Luvu 272 00:11:55,508 --> 00:11:57,308 Speaker 7: in the middle to spy these guys. You get let 273 00:11:57,388 --> 00:12:00,628 Speaker 7: von Miller do his thing. And number three, it's the 274 00:12:00,628 --> 00:12:03,868 Speaker 7: same kryptonite as all teams. Stay healthy. Like if you 275 00:12:03,948 --> 00:12:06,148 Speaker 7: even want chance, you have to have all your pieces 276 00:12:06,148 --> 00:12:08,348 Speaker 7: out there. You have to stay healthy. So with those 277 00:12:08,348 --> 00:12:11,228 Speaker 7: three things, Kyle, I think they have a pretty good 278 00:12:11,308 --> 00:12:14,628 Speaker 7: chance of being a contender in NFC East. 279 00:12:14,988 --> 00:12:19,188 Speaker 1: Yeah, they just listen. They got to slay the Eagles somehow, somehow. 280 00:12:19,388 --> 00:12:21,948 Speaker 1: And there's a really interesting schedule quirk. And for the 281 00:12:21,988 --> 00:12:23,708 Speaker 1: level of God, please don't bring up the schedule. You know, 282 00:12:23,748 --> 00:12:26,228 Speaker 1: I can't stand that. But in the last three weeks 283 00:12:26,228 --> 00:12:32,388 Speaker 1: of the Commander's schedule versus Philadelphia, versus Dallas at Philadelphia. 284 00:12:32,588 --> 00:12:34,308 Speaker 1: So we're not going to have our answer to this 285 00:12:34,388 --> 00:12:36,788 Speaker 1: question in a long time. It's one of these things 286 00:12:36,788 --> 00:12:40,308 Speaker 1: where the Commanders and Eagles don't play until almost Christmas 287 00:12:40,388 --> 00:12:42,588 Speaker 1: for the first time, and then they play twice in 288 00:12:42,628 --> 00:12:44,268 Speaker 1: three weeks, and then who knows if we get a 289 00:12:44,308 --> 00:12:46,828 Speaker 1: third time in four or five weeks. It's all there's 290 00:12:46,868 --> 00:12:48,908 Speaker 1: so worlds are going to change by the time we 291 00:12:48,948 --> 00:12:53,028 Speaker 1: see Eagles Commanders. But honestly, like they have to do 292 00:12:53,108 --> 00:12:57,188 Speaker 1: something about the tuss push. The Commanders are like exhibit 293 00:12:57,308 --> 00:13:00,828 Speaker 1: A of the effectiveness of that plate. Frankie Lulu is 294 00:13:00,828 --> 00:13:03,708 Speaker 1: still jumping over the line. He's still there, standing in 295 00:13:03,708 --> 00:13:06,668 Speaker 1: an empty state, jumping over the line, trying to stop 296 00:13:06,708 --> 00:13:09,308 Speaker 1: this thing. There's a lot of things I'm looking forward 297 00:13:09,348 --> 00:13:11,268 Speaker 1: to in the twenty twenty five season. I don't know 298 00:13:11,308 --> 00:13:13,228 Speaker 1: if illing Ford anything as much as the first time 299 00:13:13,268 --> 00:13:15,428 Speaker 1: the Eagles try to run the toush push against the Commanders, 300 00:13:15,468 --> 00:13:17,788 Speaker 1: because that maniac, I don't know what he's capable of, 301 00:13:18,108 --> 00:13:20,268 Speaker 1: but he's gonna bet his life to try to stop 302 00:13:20,308 --> 00:13:23,388 Speaker 1: this thing, and he won't. They dropped fifty five points 303 00:13:23,388 --> 00:13:25,428 Speaker 1: on him. Guys, it was a slacking. It was a 304 00:13:25,548 --> 00:13:28,468 Speaker 1: terrible end to a wonderful Commander's season. And that's fine. 305 00:13:28,708 --> 00:13:31,828 Speaker 1: But a lot, a lot has to change, and a 306 00:13:31,868 --> 00:13:34,188 Speaker 1: lot will change. This isn't one of those Jamie, Like 307 00:13:34,268 --> 00:13:36,308 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, right out of the gate, it's week 308 00:13:36,388 --> 00:13:38,948 Speaker 1: two Eagles command No, no, no, no, no, Like this game is 309 00:13:39,788 --> 00:13:42,228 Speaker 1: six months from now. It is so so you know, 310 00:13:42,268 --> 00:13:45,348 Speaker 1: we got those countdowns now, forty three days still kickoff 311 00:13:45,428 --> 00:13:49,148 Speaker 1: or whatever, like it's like four hundred days until Commander's Eagles. 312 00:13:49,308 --> 00:13:51,948 Speaker 1: And I only say that because there will be injuries, 313 00:13:52,148 --> 00:13:54,708 Speaker 1: there will be transactions, there'll be the ups and down. 314 00:13:54,788 --> 00:13:56,828 Speaker 1: I don't even know who these teams are going to be. 315 00:13:57,028 --> 00:13:58,868 Speaker 1: Then it makes it all the more mysterious. 316 00:13:59,188 --> 00:14:01,308 Speaker 6: Yeah, and with that you said they do meet late. 317 00:14:01,428 --> 00:14:04,148 Speaker 5: But first out of the gate, the game one, we 318 00:14:04,188 --> 00:14:08,228 Speaker 5: got Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles Week one. 319 00:14:08,348 --> 00:14:10,668 Speaker 6: You have Giants Commanders week one. 320 00:14:10,748 --> 00:14:12,028 Speaker 3: So we're gonna have some things. 321 00:14:12,308 --> 00:14:13,708 Speaker 1: We're gonna know a little bit of something. 322 00:14:13,788 --> 00:14:14,828 Speaker 6: Yeah, right out the gate. 323 00:14:14,868 --> 00:14:16,788 Speaker 5: But like you said, it's not a promise, it's not 324 00:14:16,788 --> 00:14:17,868 Speaker 5: a promisary note to lean. 325 00:14:17,948 --> 00:14:18,588 Speaker 6: It's gonna be tough. 326 00:14:18,668 --> 00:14:21,388 Speaker 2: Kyle, what you're implying is that the figuring out for 327 00:14:21,388 --> 00:14:23,068 Speaker 2: the commanders of the Tush Push is going to be 328 00:14:23,108 --> 00:14:26,308 Speaker 2: a stocking stuffer. In terms of that being week sixteen 329 00:14:26,348 --> 00:14:28,828 Speaker 2: and eighteen, that is the responsibility of Dan Quinn and 330 00:14:28,908 --> 00:14:30,588 Speaker 2: Joe Witch Junior. But Kyle, I want to tee you 331 00:14:30,668 --> 00:14:32,948 Speaker 2: up quickly. Someone has been on my mind as it 332 00:14:32,988 --> 00:14:35,708 Speaker 2: pertained to the Commanders, and that is Cliff Kingsbury and 333 00:14:35,748 --> 00:14:38,788 Speaker 2: the fact that what he did in this role in 334 00:14:39,348 --> 00:14:41,708 Speaker 2: can you just give us a brief history lesson on 335 00:14:41,988 --> 00:14:44,988 Speaker 2: the experience that we watch Cliff Kingsbury go through in 336 00:14:45,028 --> 00:14:47,948 Speaker 2: the NFL away from the NFL, and what he has 337 00:14:48,068 --> 00:14:50,628 Speaker 2: done with this rookie soon to be second year quarterback, 338 00:14:50,908 --> 00:14:53,268 Speaker 2: I believe is truly something magical and it speaks to 339 00:14:53,308 --> 00:14:55,668 Speaker 2: what he can do with the capability of an offense. 340 00:14:56,988 --> 00:14:59,988 Speaker 1: Well, listen, I like Cliff. My knock on Cliff is 341 00:15:00,028 --> 00:15:03,228 Speaker 1: always he doesn't do a ton of winning. You know, 342 00:15:03,508 --> 00:15:06,028 Speaker 1: he's this coach who's looking at his very smart and 343 00:15:06,108 --> 00:15:08,788 Speaker 1: all schematically brilliant, and he loves quarterbacks and he's a 344 00:15:08,788 --> 00:15:11,348 Speaker 1: cool dude. But like, whether it be in college or 345 00:15:11,388 --> 00:15:13,908 Speaker 1: whether it be is the Arizona Cardinals head coach. There 346 00:15:13,948 --> 00:15:16,948 Speaker 1: aren't the real net results. It's just and at some 347 00:15:16,988 --> 00:15:19,428 Speaker 1: point it has to be about that. So he takes 348 00:15:19,428 --> 00:15:21,468 Speaker 1: a step back. He goes from being a head coach 349 00:15:21,508 --> 00:15:23,548 Speaker 1: and getting Kyler to the playoffs and all that too, like, 350 00:15:24,028 --> 00:15:25,388 Speaker 1: just give me the reins and I'm going to go 351 00:15:25,468 --> 00:15:28,388 Speaker 1: behind a real, truly grizzled head coach and Dan Quinn 352 00:15:28,428 --> 00:15:30,068 Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna do the whiz kid thing and 353 00:15:30,108 --> 00:15:31,948 Speaker 1: give me Jaden and I'll run the offense and I'll 354 00:15:31,948 --> 00:15:34,788 Speaker 1: do this. It was a brilliant, brilliant year for him, 355 00:15:34,988 --> 00:15:37,268 Speaker 1: really really was like it was it may be the 356 00:15:37,308 --> 00:15:39,468 Speaker 1: best year of his career at any position, in any 357 00:15:39,548 --> 00:15:41,868 Speaker 1: job he's had, and he's had a lot. And now 358 00:15:41,868 --> 00:15:43,388 Speaker 1: it's just like, what do you do for the follow up? 359 00:15:43,588 --> 00:15:45,508 Speaker 1: And I know that if we talk sophomore slump, this 360 00:15:45,588 --> 00:15:48,668 Speaker 1: sophomore slump that I don't know, I almost want to 361 00:15:48,708 --> 00:15:50,708 Speaker 1: call it taboo. I'm on our show for that. And 362 00:15:50,748 --> 00:15:52,908 Speaker 1: Matti said it earlier and I said it now that 363 00:15:53,028 --> 00:15:55,828 Speaker 1: it's not only is it like a stock wrote phrase, 364 00:15:55,908 --> 00:15:58,508 Speaker 1: it's also just so negative. So if you guys are 365 00:15:58,548 --> 00:16:00,908 Speaker 1: down with it, I am up for a full taboo 366 00:16:01,068 --> 00:16:03,708 Speaker 1: designation on the term sophomore slump because I don't want 367 00:16:03,708 --> 00:16:05,668 Speaker 1: to see it and I don't want to say it perfect, 368 00:16:05,748 --> 00:16:06,148 Speaker 1: we'll put it. 369 00:16:06,148 --> 00:16:06,588 Speaker 3: On the list. 370 00:16:06,668 --> 00:16:09,628 Speaker 2: It's officially xnade from commentary unless you're mocking it. 371 00:16:09,668 --> 00:16:10,828 Speaker 3: We love that, Kyle. 372 00:16:10,868 --> 00:16:12,708 Speaker 2: The way you just explained it, I think you could 373 00:16:12,708 --> 00:16:15,348 Speaker 2: have taken Ben Johnson's name and applied that parallel to it. 374 00:16:15,508 --> 00:16:20,348 Speaker 2: This whiz kid offensive brilliance. But hopefully he's gonna ruin 375 00:16:20,508 --> 00:16:24,068 Speaker 2: and shred that narrative about becoming a head coach, and 376 00:16:24,068 --> 00:16:26,548 Speaker 2: hopefully he gets some wins under his belt. The Chicago Bears, however, 377 00:16:26,628 --> 00:16:28,028 Speaker 2: the Lions are hoping that doesn't happen. 378 00:16:28,308 --> 00:16:29,668 Speaker 3: The NFC is spicy this year. 379 00:16:29,668 --> 00:16:31,988 Speaker 2: People, let's go, so is GMFB this hour. 380 00:16:37,348 --> 00:16:41,748 Speaker 1: The pride, the protest still up, let's out, the pride 381 00:16:41,788 --> 00:16:43,228 Speaker 1: is still let the. 382 00:16:43,388 --> 00:16:47,668 Speaker 8: Person mars puts it down and cuss Themma, he's sacked again. 383 00:16:48,028 --> 00:16:49,468 Speaker 1: Wow, we're gonna have a turn over. 384 00:16:49,628 --> 00:16:50,388 Speaker 6: Let's talk, du. 385 00:16:51,828 --> 00:16:55,388 Speaker 8: I mean we exploded and Brush Young never had a chance. 386 00:16:55,468 --> 00:16:57,148 Speaker 1: When he gets going like that, it. 387 00:16:57,308 --> 00:16:58,948 Speaker 6: Is literally like he was hunting. 388 00:17:00,108 --> 00:17:01,588 Speaker 1: You don't about ever player the mom. 389 00:17:04,508 --> 00:17:06,828 Speaker 2: I don't want anybody to be concerned that When we 390 00:17:06,908 --> 00:17:09,268 Speaker 2: go for two, it's going to feel like it's good morning, 391 00:17:09,348 --> 00:17:09,948 Speaker 2: NFC East. 392 00:17:10,028 --> 00:17:12,388 Speaker 3: It's not our second topic. I'm going for two. 393 00:17:12,428 --> 00:17:14,948 Speaker 2: We will split out of the division and we're going 394 00:17:14,988 --> 00:17:16,388 Speaker 2: to go to the AFC West. But first we'll talk 395 00:17:16,388 --> 00:17:18,348 Speaker 2: about the Cowboys. Even though we just spent twenty minutes 396 00:17:18,388 --> 00:17:22,308 Speaker 2: on the Commanders. Michael Parsons favorite players, Ceed Lamb got 397 00:17:22,348 --> 00:17:26,748 Speaker 2: paid last summer. Will it be Edge Rusher Century for 398 00:17:26,828 --> 00:17:30,068 Speaker 2: the Cowboys this summer? To decide on Michah Parsons and 399 00:17:30,068 --> 00:17:32,388 Speaker 2: we'll kind of payment he will get. Parsons was asked 400 00:17:32,388 --> 00:17:34,588 Speaker 2: this week if he was worried he didn't have a 401 00:17:34,628 --> 00:17:37,908 Speaker 2: long term deal yet, he replied, I just work harder. 402 00:17:38,108 --> 00:17:40,908 Speaker 2: Like to me, I look at it like if people 403 00:17:40,908 --> 00:17:44,108 Speaker 2: don't see your value, you don't cry and sit down, 404 00:17:44,308 --> 00:17:46,868 Speaker 2: just work harder. I'm just going to get mine no 405 00:17:47,028 --> 00:17:49,228 Speaker 2: matter what end quotes. 406 00:17:49,508 --> 00:17:50,828 Speaker 3: It's quite the take for Shad. 407 00:17:50,908 --> 00:17:52,308 Speaker 2: So he's going to show up, He's going to show 408 00:17:52,348 --> 00:17:54,388 Speaker 2: him what he's worth and he's going to force their hand. 409 00:17:54,708 --> 00:17:56,988 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on this take from Micah? 410 00:17:57,028 --> 00:17:57,708 Speaker 6: I love this take. 411 00:17:57,788 --> 00:18:00,068 Speaker 5: This is a football take one hundred percent. You know 412 00:18:00,188 --> 00:18:02,468 Speaker 5: as an athlete, and we learn this. You learn to 413 00:18:02,508 --> 00:18:04,908 Speaker 5: fall in love with the process more than outcome, and 414 00:18:04,948 --> 00:18:08,188 Speaker 5: if you can do that, you're probably supersedu your original goal. 415 00:18:08,708 --> 00:18:11,388 Speaker 5: And Michael Parson's out there having fun. He's with the 416 00:18:11,468 --> 00:18:15,588 Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys. He's a hard worker, he plays hard, he 417 00:18:15,708 --> 00:18:19,148 Speaker 5: has fun hard, he has his podcast, he's making money 418 00:18:19,188 --> 00:18:22,788 Speaker 5: off the film, and he's anticipating a big contract. Everybody 419 00:18:22,828 --> 00:18:24,908 Speaker 5: that watches football knows it will come. 420 00:18:25,148 --> 00:18:26,668 Speaker 6: We don't know if it's going to be with. 421 00:18:27,068 --> 00:18:29,628 Speaker 5: The Dallas Cowboys or if they could do a mysterious 422 00:18:29,668 --> 00:18:32,628 Speaker 5: trade and stack up picks, but we know, and he 423 00:18:32,708 --> 00:18:34,868 Speaker 5: knows he's going to get paid, so he's focused on 424 00:18:34,908 --> 00:18:36,988 Speaker 5: the prize. He's not a concern with the noise. 425 00:18:37,388 --> 00:18:39,868 Speaker 6: I love this. I love this take by him. Well, 426 00:18:40,068 --> 00:18:42,788 Speaker 6: you talk about process and trusting the process. 427 00:18:42,828 --> 00:18:46,388 Speaker 7: I think by now Michael Parsons isn't word, and either 428 00:18:46,428 --> 00:18:49,028 Speaker 7: am I or anybody that follows the Cowboys during this 429 00:18:49,108 --> 00:18:51,428 Speaker 7: time of year are word. It's like the Fast and 430 00:18:51,468 --> 00:18:53,908 Speaker 7: Furious series. We know it's going to happen, even though 431 00:18:53,908 --> 00:18:56,668 Speaker 7: you're on Fast ten. Like we know the past ten movies, 432 00:18:56,788 --> 00:18:58,348 Speaker 7: it was all the same. How many times have you 433 00:18:58,388 --> 00:19:00,868 Speaker 7: heard Jerry Jones during training camp, in the middle of 434 00:19:00,868 --> 00:19:03,788 Speaker 7: a training camp, have these disputes with his players, whether 435 00:19:03,828 --> 00:19:07,508 Speaker 7: it be Dak Prescott, Zach Marin, CD Lamb. There's always 436 00:19:07,508 --> 00:19:09,908 Speaker 7: something that comes up around this time of year when 437 00:19:09,948 --> 00:19:13,828 Speaker 7: it comes to extending his players. Now, I love the 438 00:19:13,868 --> 00:19:15,468 Speaker 7: fact too to your point where Shot, I love the 439 00:19:15,508 --> 00:19:18,108 Speaker 7: fact that you know, Michael Parsons is going to come 440 00:19:18,108 --> 00:19:19,748 Speaker 7: out there and he's going to set up precedence that 441 00:19:19,788 --> 00:19:21,668 Speaker 7: the best player is going to be out there to 442 00:19:21,828 --> 00:19:24,268 Speaker 7: lead this team. I think that it speaks to him 443 00:19:24,548 --> 00:19:28,068 Speaker 7: as a leader, as being selfless, as being one of 444 00:19:28,108 --> 00:19:30,988 Speaker 7: the better players in the NFL, not just for the 445 00:19:31,108 --> 00:19:34,588 Speaker 7: Dallas Cowboys, but showing his dedication and his love for 446 00:19:34,628 --> 00:19:37,228 Speaker 7: his for the game of football and his teammates, for 447 00:19:37,388 --> 00:19:40,468 Speaker 7: being in this type of situation but still being out there. Kyle, 448 00:19:40,508 --> 00:19:43,708 Speaker 7: I think it sets a good trajectory for the Dallas 449 00:19:43,708 --> 00:19:44,948 Speaker 7: Cowboys heading into this year. 450 00:19:46,348 --> 00:19:50,388 Speaker 1: Well, Michah has this this luxury, this this privilege, if 451 00:19:50,428 --> 00:19:52,908 Speaker 1: you will, of just being like, I know, I'm so good, 452 00:19:53,068 --> 00:19:56,828 Speaker 1: i am so calentult A lot of guys don't have that. 453 00:19:56,908 --> 00:20:00,188 Speaker 1: You know, like he talks like he knows exactly who 454 00:20:00,268 --> 00:20:02,548 Speaker 1: and what he is. You get other guys who are 455 00:20:02,588 --> 00:20:04,828 Speaker 1: gonna want I'm gonna unfollow the team. I'm so media 456 00:20:04,908 --> 00:20:07,348 Speaker 1: that'll show him, or I'm gonna tweet some dumb emoji 457 00:20:07,388 --> 00:20:10,028 Speaker 1: that no one understands. Micah's like, I don't really care. 458 00:20:10,348 --> 00:20:13,068 Speaker 1: I'm Micah, I know what team I've played for, I 459 00:20:13,108 --> 00:20:16,388 Speaker 1: know who I am. Like, it'll work. It's refreshing. Actually 460 00:20:16,428 --> 00:20:19,228 Speaker 1: it's I wouldn't recommend it to all these guys. And listen, 461 00:20:19,228 --> 00:20:21,428 Speaker 1: we're seeing all kinds of issues around the league now, 462 00:20:21,708 --> 00:20:24,348 Speaker 1: whether it's with the Bengals or whether it's the Trey 463 00:20:24,428 --> 00:20:29,588 Speaker 1: Hendrickson or anybody like that. Those guys aren't aren't Micah, 464 00:20:29,628 --> 00:20:32,588 Speaker 1: and they're not Dallas, and they listen. Trey Hendrickson's probably like, 465 00:20:33,068 --> 00:20:35,148 Speaker 1: I led the league in sacks last year? Where were you? 466 00:20:35,668 --> 00:20:37,788 Speaker 1: He's like, I don't know. I'm just different. I'm younger 467 00:20:37,828 --> 00:20:39,588 Speaker 1: than you are, I play for a different team than you, 468 00:20:39,708 --> 00:20:42,668 Speaker 1: I played for a different owner, and it's probably very frustrating, 469 00:20:42,708 --> 00:20:45,268 Speaker 1: but it kind of makes me smile. And I listen. 470 00:20:45,348 --> 00:20:46,988 Speaker 1: It's like, I know I keep bringing this up, but 471 00:20:47,468 --> 00:20:49,588 Speaker 1: I'm in the same arena as Michael Parsons last night 472 00:20:49,628 --> 00:20:51,588 Speaker 1: in New York. Like it was just a random place 473 00:20:51,948 --> 00:20:55,108 Speaker 1: and like I just cannot tell you if you didn't 474 00:20:55,148 --> 00:20:56,948 Speaker 1: know what was going on. And this is me and 475 00:20:56,988 --> 00:20:59,588 Speaker 1: my daughter. But he Micah was courtside, like his feet 476 00:20:59,628 --> 00:21:01,868 Speaker 1: on the court. If you didn't know he was having 477 00:21:02,028 --> 00:21:04,548 Speaker 1: issues with wanting a new contract, like you would think 478 00:21:04,588 --> 00:21:06,988 Speaker 1: that they just paid him four hundred million. His body 479 00:21:07,068 --> 00:21:10,748 Speaker 1: language was so loose and so light and so giggling 480 00:21:10,868 --> 00:21:13,148 Speaker 1: is with his friends, and like you would never know 481 00:21:13,348 --> 00:21:15,788 Speaker 1: by looking at him, like that's the guy who wants 482 00:21:16,028 --> 00:21:18,068 Speaker 1: is frustrated's not getting a new contract. You know why, 483 00:21:18,188 --> 00:21:20,908 Speaker 1: because he's not frustrated because it's like, I'm Micah, I'll 484 00:21:20,908 --> 00:21:22,668 Speaker 1: get paid. I'm not really worried about it. I think 485 00:21:22,668 --> 00:21:23,348 Speaker 1: it's pretty cool. 486 00:21:23,468 --> 00:21:25,188 Speaker 2: He's got the star and his helmet kind of no 487 00:21:25,228 --> 00:21:26,828 Speaker 2: matter who he plays for, is what you're saying. 488 00:21:26,868 --> 00:21:27,708 Speaker 3: I like it all right. 489 00:21:27,748 --> 00:21:31,148 Speaker 2: Going for two second topic, The video came out Manny 490 00:21:31,228 --> 00:21:34,748 Speaker 2: Pakia professional boxer returning to the ring this Saturday, and 491 00:21:34,948 --> 00:21:38,188 Speaker 2: instead of getting the authentic like I'm dripping in sweat 492 00:21:38,188 --> 00:21:40,548 Speaker 2: in Las Vegas workout, he just took it to the 493 00:21:40,628 --> 00:21:43,868 Speaker 2: air conditioning. He went indoor, he went climate control, bounced 494 00:21:43,908 --> 00:21:46,508 Speaker 2: around on the rate in the Raiders' facility, which is 495 00:21:46,548 --> 00:21:49,188 Speaker 2: an amazing look. And frankly, the feat with the running 496 00:21:49,188 --> 00:21:51,828 Speaker 2: back moves looks sweet for Manny Pakia for sure. 497 00:21:52,428 --> 00:21:54,588 Speaker 3: Do you have a boxer that could. 498 00:21:54,308 --> 00:21:57,988 Speaker 2: Best describe a team heading into the twenty twenty five season. 499 00:21:58,228 --> 00:22:01,428 Speaker 5: Yeah, first, first of all, forty six moving like that. 500 00:22:01,428 --> 00:22:05,668 Speaker 5: That's a nice cut, man. I have to admit that, yes, yes, 501 00:22:05,708 --> 00:22:09,068 Speaker 5: one hundred percent. And I have to go with Floyd Mayweather. 502 00:22:09,308 --> 00:22:13,428 Speaker 5: Money may is in comparison to the Philadelphia Eagle, And 503 00:22:13,628 --> 00:22:15,228 Speaker 5: let me try to break this down for you. So 504 00:22:15,668 --> 00:22:19,148 Speaker 5: obviously he's more precision over the over the flashroom and 505 00:22:19,148 --> 00:22:21,748 Speaker 5: the way that he fights. And I think I think 506 00:22:21,828 --> 00:22:25,108 Speaker 5: the Eagles are built like an old school team. They're gritty, 507 00:22:25,268 --> 00:22:28,388 Speaker 5: they're gonna run, first play defense, don't air the ball 508 00:22:28,428 --> 00:22:29,748 Speaker 5: out a whole ton. 509 00:22:29,868 --> 00:22:31,628 Speaker 6: Consistency, consistency. 510 00:22:31,628 --> 00:22:34,228 Speaker 5: The Philadelphia Eagles are very consistent, making the playoffs last 511 00:22:34,228 --> 00:22:37,908 Speaker 5: four years. When you look at Money Mayweather, he's consistently 512 00:22:37,948 --> 00:22:40,108 Speaker 5: at the top of the board. He's a champion. That's 513 00:22:40,108 --> 00:22:43,108 Speaker 5: exactly what Money may is. What are the Philadelhia Eagles? 514 00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:45,708 Speaker 6: They're champions. When you look at Jalen Hursts, what is. 515 00:22:45,628 --> 00:22:47,708 Speaker 1: He He's loved, but he's also hated. 516 00:22:48,228 --> 00:22:49,348 Speaker 6: It's like just like. 517 00:22:49,348 --> 00:22:51,388 Speaker 5: Money May And why is he hated because both of 518 00:22:51,428 --> 00:22:54,468 Speaker 5: them kind of tamper with this little style that they 519 00:22:54,588 --> 00:22:57,708 Speaker 5: just you can't stop that Philly shell is a Philly shell. 520 00:22:57,828 --> 00:23:00,228 Speaker 5: That defense. Oh he doesn't want to fight. Oh, they 521 00:23:00,308 --> 00:23:03,148 Speaker 5: just want to push toush. It's the comparison. And so 522 00:23:03,308 --> 00:23:05,508 Speaker 5: they're built the same. They look to say, but you 523 00:23:05,548 --> 00:23:07,708 Speaker 5: can't stop them. You're either paying to watch them, to 524 00:23:07,788 --> 00:23:10,028 Speaker 5: boo or cheer for them. But I see them in 525 00:23:10,028 --> 00:23:10,668 Speaker 5: the exact same. 526 00:23:11,268 --> 00:23:13,868 Speaker 7: I love the fact you said you either love them 527 00:23:13,948 --> 00:23:15,868 Speaker 7: or you hate them, because the guy the team that 528 00:23:15,908 --> 00:23:17,868 Speaker 7: I'm gonna go with, you definitely love them or you're 529 00:23:17,868 --> 00:23:21,908 Speaker 7: gonna hate them. And that's the Dallas Cowboys. Now follow me, guys, 530 00:23:22,108 --> 00:23:26,188 Speaker 7: I'm comparing the Dallas Cowboys to Jake Paul. 531 00:23:26,468 --> 00:23:28,268 Speaker 6: Okay, just follow me, guys. 532 00:23:28,268 --> 00:23:33,388 Speaker 7: Okay, You're both two different entities that have large followings. 533 00:23:34,188 --> 00:23:37,188 Speaker 7: Some you have probably Jake Paul, you have more following 534 00:23:37,228 --> 00:23:40,188 Speaker 7: than some champions. Dallas Cowboys you have more followings. 535 00:23:39,748 --> 00:23:40,708 Speaker 3: Than some champions. 536 00:23:40,748 --> 00:23:44,468 Speaker 7: You're both global brands, like Jake Paul is known everywhere. 537 00:23:44,788 --> 00:23:46,308 Speaker 6: You sell out stadiums. 538 00:23:46,788 --> 00:23:50,828 Speaker 7: Nothing you sell out stadiums, and when you're in stadiums, 539 00:23:50,828 --> 00:23:52,748 Speaker 7: they're either gonna love you or they're gonna boo you, 540 00:23:52,828 --> 00:23:55,068 Speaker 7: like how Michael Parson's got booed last night at the game. 541 00:23:55,548 --> 00:23:58,748 Speaker 7: And you're worth lots of money. But this is where 542 00:23:58,788 --> 00:24:01,708 Speaker 7: it all comes home from me. Every single year we 543 00:24:01,828 --> 00:24:04,708 Speaker 7: struggle with the question is it time to take you 544 00:24:04,868 --> 00:24:07,948 Speaker 7: serious or not? Every time Jake Paul is out there, 545 00:24:07,988 --> 00:24:10,508 Speaker 7: it's like, should I take you serious. 546 00:24:10,148 --> 00:24:10,748 Speaker 6: As a fighter? 547 00:24:10,868 --> 00:24:12,708 Speaker 1: Should I take you serious as a boxer? 548 00:24:12,868 --> 00:24:14,948 Speaker 7: And the Dallas Cowboys every single year. 549 00:24:14,828 --> 00:24:17,228 Speaker 6: I'm like, should I take you serious? 550 00:24:17,588 --> 00:24:20,028 Speaker 7: You're looking so good so early, But should I take 551 00:24:20,028 --> 00:24:20,548 Speaker 7: you serious? 552 00:24:20,548 --> 00:24:21,508 Speaker 6: I'm not so sure. 553 00:24:21,828 --> 00:24:25,188 Speaker 7: So I've got Jake Paul, Kyle and the Dallas Cowboys. 554 00:24:25,268 --> 00:24:27,148 Speaker 6: Hmm, that's strong. Yeah. 555 00:24:27,428 --> 00:24:31,388 Speaker 1: The problem with the Cowboys is that they they have 556 00:24:31,428 --> 00:24:33,348 Speaker 1: to play the Eagles. That's not like sixty year old 557 00:24:33,348 --> 00:24:37,228 Speaker 1: Mike Tyson, that's like in his prime, a tomato in 558 00:24:37,228 --> 00:24:41,668 Speaker 1: his corner like that. Their opponent is very, very very different. Also, like, 559 00:24:41,708 --> 00:24:43,948 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest, it's a little sidebar here. I 560 00:24:44,348 --> 00:24:46,508 Speaker 1: hate seeing the manupac. Yeah, I was fighting. What are 561 00:24:46,508 --> 00:24:49,348 Speaker 1: we doing? Man? I know boxing is a brutal sport, 562 00:24:49,388 --> 00:24:51,228 Speaker 1: and maybe he's got bills to pay or other things, 563 00:24:51,228 --> 00:24:53,508 Speaker 1: but like we're forty six years old. Like after that 564 00:24:53,548 --> 00:24:55,588 Speaker 1: one Manuel Marquez knock out, I never want to see 565 00:24:55,628 --> 00:24:58,228 Speaker 1: him boxing again. He's an all time legend. He's beloved 566 00:24:58,268 --> 00:25:00,628 Speaker 1: in his native Philippines. I don't know who he's boxing 567 00:25:00,708 --> 00:25:03,508 Speaker 1: or what he's boxing. I just I'm like, come on, Manny, 568 00:25:03,628 --> 00:25:06,548 Speaker 1: like he's quick and I get it. I just I 569 00:25:06,948 --> 00:25:08,828 Speaker 1: get nervous for these guys. I've watched a lot of 570 00:25:08,868 --> 00:25:12,068 Speaker 1: Manipaco fights over the years, and I just seems like 571 00:25:12,108 --> 00:25:14,148 Speaker 1: it may be the best times in the safest times 572 00:25:14,148 --> 00:25:17,428 Speaker 1: are behind him. But with that sidebar aside, I'm gonna 573 00:25:17,468 --> 00:25:21,868 Speaker 1: go the Pittsburgh Steelers. And I used to still am 574 00:25:21,948 --> 00:25:24,948 Speaker 1: be a big fan of a gentleman named butter Bean. 575 00:25:25,228 --> 00:25:29,148 Speaker 1: You guys familiar with butter Bean. Butter Be a big, 576 00:25:29,148 --> 00:25:32,548 Speaker 1: old bald dude who would just show up, show up 577 00:25:32,828 --> 00:25:36,228 Speaker 1: and throw out haymakers. And he once beat up Johnny Knoxville. 578 00:25:36,228 --> 00:25:38,468 Speaker 1: And why are the Steelers butter Bean? It's like every 579 00:25:38,548 --> 00:25:40,228 Speaker 1: year you kind of look at him, You're like, this 580 00:25:40,308 --> 00:25:43,388 Speaker 1: is the guy, and then showing up. But they're five 581 00:25:43,468 --> 00:25:45,708 Speaker 1: hundred they're over five hundred, They're in the playoffs, and 582 00:25:45,788 --> 00:25:47,828 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is like, does he still have it? He's 583 00:25:47,868 --> 00:25:50,628 Speaker 1: got a great beard and he's like, I still I'm 584 00:25:50,628 --> 00:25:53,428 Speaker 1: gonna trust Butterbean. I apparently we don't have other there's Rogers. 585 00:25:54,188 --> 00:25:56,308 Speaker 1: I just think they still have that right hand. And 586 00:25:56,788 --> 00:25:58,388 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna, you know, be the 587 00:25:58,468 --> 00:26:01,188 Speaker 1: world heavyweight champion and have a belt. But it's always 588 00:26:01,228 --> 00:26:03,028 Speaker 1: gonna be fun to watch. You're not gonna be able 589 00:26:03,028 --> 00:26:04,548 Speaker 1: to turn away. A lot of people say what the 590 00:26:04,548 --> 00:26:06,068 Speaker 1: hell is this? And then you watch, You're like, oh, 591 00:26:06,108 --> 00:26:07,468 Speaker 1: I like this. I think that's gonna be the. 592 00:26:07,428 --> 00:26:09,188 Speaker 3: Stealers, the share man. 593 00:26:09,228 --> 00:26:10,748 Speaker 2: I don't know who that guy is, but I like 594 00:26:10,788 --> 00:26:13,148 Speaker 2: his name. And Kyle, it's a perfect parallel to answer 595 00:26:13,188 --> 00:26:16,468 Speaker 2: your question, Kyle Mario Barrios, who is the thirty year 596 00:26:16,508 --> 00:26:20,508 Speaker 2: old welterweight champion. Me talking about boxing is the parallel 597 00:26:20,508 --> 00:26:21,548 Speaker 2: to me talking about wrestling. 598 00:26:21,548 --> 00:26:22,468 Speaker 3: I got nothing, but. 599 00:26:22,428 --> 00:26:25,068 Speaker 2: He's gonna fight Manny Paccio. I guess as a reigning champion, 600 00:26:25,068 --> 00:26:26,828 Speaker 2: you get to come out of retirement just at will, 601 00:26:26,908 --> 00:26:28,668 Speaker 2: call a guy up and be like, let's have a 602 00:26:28,668 --> 00:26:30,868 Speaker 2: title fight. That's what you get when you are a 603 00:26:30,908 --> 00:26:33,988 Speaker 2: man paccio or a raiding champion. We will be watching 604 00:26:34,828 --> 00:26:37,948 Speaker 2: the show and the boxing match this weekend. I gotta 605 00:26:37,948 --> 00:26:39,548 Speaker 2: get out of here because I can't get that box. 606 00:26:40,708 --> 00:26:42,508 Speaker 3: We have Bronc on the show. I'm sure he could 607 00:26:42,508 --> 00:26:46,188 Speaker 3: make a parallel about boxers and teams. What was his 608 00:26:46,268 --> 00:26:48,708 Speaker 3: name again? Your guy Kyle butter Bean? 609 00:26:49,508 --> 00:26:50,028 Speaker 6: Butter Bean? 610 00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:53,788 Speaker 3: Yeah, butter Bean?

Look big boys like 613 00:27:09,628 --> 00:27:27,188 Speaker 1: that did stop him, cannot stop him. 614 00:27:27,268 --> 00:27:28,228 Speaker 6: I don't even know how. 615 00:27:28,308 --> 00:27:36,588 Speaker 9: I'm the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history, Cooky, it's 616 00:27:36,588 --> 00:27:37,668 Speaker 9: the best play in the year. 617 00:27:41,388 --> 00:27:43,388 Speaker 1: Imagine you left your job one day and you said, 618 00:27:43,388 --> 00:27:45,428 Speaker 1: I don't even know how I did that.

We also have been talking about 665 00:29:47,428 --> 00:29:50,428 Speaker 1: the podcasts, all right, So you and Jules, you recently 666 00:29:50,468 --> 00:29:53,268 Speaker 1: interviewed the boss man. Robert Kraft comes on the pod 667 00:29:53,748 --> 00:29:56,388 Speaker 1: and when you guys asked him about his best decision 668 00:29:56,428 --> 00:29:58,868 Speaker 1: he has made as an owner of the Patriots, he 669 00:29:58,908 --> 00:30:00,988 Speaker 1: had this to say. We have a clip dudes on dudes, 670 00:30:01,508 --> 00:30:04,788 Speaker 1: it was your best decision that you've made as an 671 00:30:04,828 --> 00:30:05,948 Speaker 1: owner to date. 672 00:30:05,908 --> 00:30:10,628 Speaker 11: Getting Bill Belichick to come to the Patriots. I gave 673 00:30:10,748 --> 00:30:14,428 Speaker 11: up a number one draft pick coach who had only 674 00:30:14,508 --> 00:30:18,148 Speaker 11: won a little over forty percent of his game in 675 00:30:18,268 --> 00:30:22,548 Speaker 11: nineteen ninety nine was a big risk, and I got 676 00:30:22,708 --> 00:30:29,548 Speaker 11: hammered in the Boston media, but I think we did okay. 677 00:30:30,788 --> 00:30:32,988 Speaker 1: All right, So Rob you get this great clip and 678 00:30:33,028 --> 00:30:36,468 Speaker 1: then Coach now has a response to it in which 679 00:30:36,508 --> 00:30:40,348 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick says, as I told Robert multiple times through 680 00:30:40,348 --> 00:30:43,068 Speaker 1: the years, I took a risk by taking the New 681 00:30:43,068 --> 00:30:45,868 Speaker 1: England Patriots job because everyone told me it was going 682 00:30:45,948 --> 00:30:48,068 Speaker 1: to come with many internal obstacles, We're going to have 683 00:30:48,148 --> 00:30:50,988 Speaker 1: to change everything. It was a really good response. What 684 00:30:51,068 --> 00:30:53,788 Speaker 1: do you make of mister kraft statement and then Coach's response? 685 00:30:54,748 --> 00:30:59,268 Speaker 9: You know, with mister Kraft's statement, RKK statement, I don't 686 00:30:59,308 --> 00:31:04,188 Speaker 9: think there was truly any aimosity towards what he was saying. 687 00:31:04,868 --> 00:31:07,708 Speaker 9: He was just kind of generally speaking that it was 688 00:31:07,748 --> 00:31:11,188 Speaker 9: a big risk. I feel like that because he was 689 00:31:11,548 --> 00:31:14,788 Speaker 9: taking Coach Belichick, who was just hired as the head 690 00:31:14,828 --> 00:31:17,468 Speaker 9: coach from the New York Jets, and he was taking 691 00:31:17,548 --> 00:31:20,868 Speaker 9: him and stealing him, and that's really never been done before, and. 692 00:31:20,828 --> 00:31:23,148 Speaker 10: That was a risky play. And I feel like. 693 00:31:23,108 --> 00:31:26,628 Speaker 9: He was saying it kind of in a more general 694 00:31:26,748 --> 00:31:30,188 Speaker 9: way of that's why it was a risk, Not anything 695 00:31:30,348 --> 00:31:33,628 Speaker 9: against Coach Belichick, just a way that it was done. 696 00:31:33,988 --> 00:31:34,548 Speaker 10: And then with. 697 00:31:34,548 --> 00:31:37,788 Speaker 9: Coach Belichick coming back and saying that it was a 698 00:31:37,908 --> 00:31:41,828 Speaker 9: risk for him to take the job, well, I mean 699 00:31:42,068 --> 00:31:44,548 Speaker 9: we were just firing back, I feel like, because I 700 00:31:44,588 --> 00:31:48,148 Speaker 9: feel like he figed out the context of what RKK said. 701 00:31:48,388 --> 00:31:51,788 Speaker 10: But it's a risk in any job that you take. 702 00:31:52,148 --> 00:31:55,708 Speaker 9: And MSS and Coach Belichick, he loves to be hands 703 00:31:55,748 --> 00:31:58,548 Speaker 9: on and he kind of loves to make sure that 704 00:31:58,668 --> 00:32:01,708 Speaker 9: everything is run in the organization how it needs to 705 00:32:01,708 --> 00:32:04,748 Speaker 9: be run, you know, in the right way, so he 706 00:32:04,828 --> 00:32:07,348 Speaker 9: can coach and develop the players. 707 00:32:07,628 --> 00:32:08,988 Speaker 10: Out on the football field. 708 00:32:09,308 --> 00:32:12,388 Speaker 9: And he did an excellent job and it could have 709 00:32:12,388 --> 00:32:13,948 Speaker 9: been a better match from the get go. 710 00:32:14,348 --> 00:32:16,588 Speaker 2: But Kron, to your point, I love this era that 711 00:32:16,668 --> 00:32:19,628 Speaker 2: Belichick actually had something to say about the quote and 712 00:32:19,668 --> 00:32:21,828 Speaker 2: it wasn't just like I'm not sure I didn't catch that, 713 00:32:21,908 --> 00:32:23,708 Speaker 2: which I think there was a time in which we 714 00:32:23,748 --> 00:32:26,828 Speaker 2: would have heard coach do that. Now, mister Kraft obviously 715 00:32:26,908 --> 00:32:28,868 Speaker 2: still at the Helm in New England, and he had 716 00:32:28,868 --> 00:32:30,748 Speaker 2: a tough decision to make to move on from a 717 00:32:30,788 --> 00:32:33,588 Speaker 2: first year head coach, to bring Mike Rabel back into 718 00:32:33,628 --> 00:32:36,508 Speaker 2: the system, into the fold, into the organization that you 719 00:32:36,588 --> 00:32:39,068 Speaker 2: know and love so well, what do you think Rabel 720 00:32:39,188 --> 00:32:41,628 Speaker 2: has to do now to get this thing back to 721 00:32:41,708 --> 00:32:44,188 Speaker 2: an era in which that was as successful and try 722 00:32:44,228 --> 00:32:47,268 Speaker 2: to match that that you had going with the Patriots. 723 00:32:47,788 --> 00:32:50,948 Speaker 9: Yes, well, I think Mike Rabel is doing an excellent 724 00:32:51,028 --> 00:32:53,548 Speaker 9: job so far. I mean, you really can't question any 725 00:32:53,628 --> 00:32:56,188 Speaker 9: of the moves that he has done this year in 726 00:32:56,268 --> 00:32:58,788 Speaker 9: free agency and in the draft. I think they smacked 727 00:32:58,828 --> 00:33:00,988 Speaker 9: it out of the park. What we really got to 728 00:33:01,028 --> 00:33:04,268 Speaker 9: see now is how coach Rabel can bring this team 729 00:33:04,468 --> 00:33:07,588 Speaker 9: together so they can have that chemistry to go out 730 00:33:07,708 --> 00:33:10,388 Speaker 9: and play together as a team and go out there 731 00:33:10,428 --> 00:33:13,308 Speaker 9: and win games and possibly have a shot at making 732 00:33:13,348 --> 00:33:16,268 Speaker 9: the playoffs and winning the division and if not winning 733 00:33:16,268 --> 00:33:18,908 Speaker 9: the division, at least getting a wild card so they 734 00:33:18,908 --> 00:33:21,468 Speaker 9: can compete in the playoffs. That's what he has to do. 735 00:33:21,748 --> 00:33:23,988 Speaker 9: He has to bring this team together. Because all the 736 00:33:24,028 --> 00:33:27,188 Speaker 9: moves in the offseason have been done in the draft 737 00:33:27,348 --> 00:33:28,228 Speaker 9: and free agency. 738 00:33:28,468 --> 00:33:29,508 Speaker 10: Maybe they're going to make. 739 00:33:29,348 --> 00:33:32,428 Speaker 9: Another splash, you know, before the trade deadline, because they 740 00:33:32,468 --> 00:33:35,748 Speaker 9: have about fifty sixty million dollars left and spending, so 741 00:33:36,028 --> 00:33:38,188 Speaker 9: they're going to maybe go out and make a trade 742 00:33:38,388 --> 00:33:41,228 Speaker 9: to see, you know, to amp up a position that 743 00:33:41,028 --> 00:33:41,828 Speaker 9: you know, that they need. 744 00:33:41,668 --> 00:33:43,988 Speaker 10: To progress at, you know, throughout the season. 745 00:33:44,028 --> 00:33:46,548 Speaker 9: But other than that, he has been doing such a 746 00:33:46,548 --> 00:33:48,828 Speaker 9: great job and you can't really question him yet, and 747 00:33:48,868 --> 00:33:50,308 Speaker 9: you got to just see how he does once the 748 00:33:50,348 --> 00:33:54,068 Speaker 9: season hits. 749 00:33:52,428 --> 00:33:55,428 Speaker 1: No doubt, Vrabel and Old Pat's legend Gronk. Let's talk 750 00:33:55,468 --> 00:33:58,308 Speaker 1: about another one, you know who was on fire right now?

Never 754 00:34:06,948 --> 00:34:10,228 Speaker 1: mind what's true and not true about his personal life. Rob. 755 00:34:10,548 --> 00:34:14,348 Speaker 1: If someone were to call you, let's say it's Sophia 756 00:34:14,428 --> 00:34:17,708 Speaker 1: Bargera or Sydney Sweener, anybody, and they call you and 757 00:34:17,708 --> 00:34:21,508 Speaker 1: they say, Rob, what would be your advice on dating Tom?
