Hello Jason, and Chris Profeder technical producer. What up, Chris, 17 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: Let's get a rolling on this Monday, because I came 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: from America's dairy land, spent the last week in my 19 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: home state of Wisconsin, and they were head over heels, 20 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: head over heels when the news broke on Thursday that 21 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: Micah Parsons was going to be a member of the 22 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: Green and Gold being traded by the Packers to the 23 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. And now it's a whole new world for 24 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers as they have an enormous different 25 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: and enormous difference maker on that side of the football 26 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: to compliment what Jordan Love and the offense are going 27 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: to try to do. Bonifid superstar Michah Parsons now lining 28 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: up on defense for the Packers. 29 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 3: You know, before this trade even happened, Dan, we were 30 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 3: sitting here and I had a one liner where I said, 31 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 3: in that division, the Packers should have the most pressure 32 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 3: right now to come in and win it. You are 33 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 3: facing a team that is starting with a brand new 34 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback in Ja Well rookie but not you go 35 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, and JJ McCarthy who spent his first 36 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 3: year injured. You've got the Lions losing both of their 37 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: offensive coordinators, and I think they're going to be bad, 38 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 3: but I think it's going to take a minute to 39 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 3: get back in their groove with new offensive coordinators. And 40 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 3: then I don't know what Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams 41 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 3: relationship is. I just think they may have similar personalities 42 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 3: where I wonder how truly it's going to come out 43 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 3: on the field for them. And so the easy team 44 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 3: to put pressure on before this move even happened was 45 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 3: the Green Bay Packers. You were already successful last year 46 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: in a very tough division and you were basically running 47 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 3: it back, and so before getting Michael Parsons, I thought 48 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 3: the pressure was on them. 49 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 4: On them. 50 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 3: Now I'm like, oh, you better come out of the 51 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 3: NFC as a number one seed. 52 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: That targets is on their back. And I think that 53 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: most years, Monty, we think it's whoever made it to 54 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: the super Bowl from that conference. Like, for as much 55 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 1: as we don't know if the Chiefs are going to 56 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: be back or not, the road to the super Bowl 57 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: still goes through Kansas City and the AFC obviously with 58 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: the egos is the super Bowl champions. I think that 59 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: it's a no brainer or would be a no brainer 60 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: that the road to the super Bowl in the NFC 61 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: go through Philadelphia. But I think that you're onto something. 62 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: I agree when you push in your chips like that, 63 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: and we can get to the breakdown of the chips 64 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: that were actually pushed in just The fact that Green 65 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: Bay says we're gonna go and get this player and 66 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: get that player changes everything because now it's you're in 67 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: You're not only are you in win now mod like 68 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: you have been the last couple of years, but you 69 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: are now in win big now mode. 70 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 5: Now. 71 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: I think that you're absolutely right with that that target 72 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: on their back because of this Michael Parsons deal, and 73 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: there's really now no more excuses for green Bay when 74 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: you push in all these chips. 75 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 4: Obviously, they they saw the pressure. 76 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: They saw that they had a real chance to just 77 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 3: not only win the division, but win the NFC and get. 78 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 4: To the Super Bowl by making this move for Michael Parsons. 79 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 3: But the target on the back you you said that, 80 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 3: and I think that's the right expression. That is a 81 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 3: target on the back, which I hadn't worded it that way. 82 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: But now with Michael Parsons, Oh yeah, No, everyone is 83 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: wanting to take the Packers down because they were already good. 84 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 4: But I'm I see all this on paper. 85 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 3: I'm like, you need to win the NFC on paper, 86 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 3: But we saw the Packers already had a solid defense 87 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 3: last year. Their problems were offense. They kept dropping passes 88 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: like I know Matthew Golden. They've got a new rookie 89 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 3: receiver hoping to, you know, come out and be a 90 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 3: difference maker offensively. 91 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 4: But their offense was was sloppy. That's what needed to 92 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 4: be tightened up. Their defense was solid already. Yeah, you 93 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 4: now you get Michael Parsons. 94 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: But I think that it's it's interesting when you bring 95 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: up Matthew Golden's name because this all goes back to 96 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: a little bit of Aaron Rodgers and just to just 97 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: to branch off on that portion of it quickly, the 98 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: moves that Green Bay didn't make when Aaron Rogers were 99 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: there were because they had Aaron Rodgers right like there 100 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: was there was so much focus on Green Bay not 101 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: taking a wide receiver in the first round and Aaron 102 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: Rodgers only throwing one touchdown pass to a first round pick, 103 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: which for so long was Marcedes Lewis, the veteran tight 104 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: end who's been in the NFL for like fifteen sixteen years, 105 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: but that was the only first round pick. I think 106 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: those stats were deceiving Monci, but they fit this argument 107 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: because I think any NFL team would have loved to 108 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: have had Jordy Nelson. They would have loved to have 109 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: had DeVante Adams second round pick. Screen Bay drafted Randall Cobb. 110 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: I think Cobb was a second or third round pick. 111 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: They invested in the weapons, they just didn't do it 112 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: in the first round. So then they go and they 113 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: draft Matthew Golden in the first round this year, and 114 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: then now you go out and you get a defensive 115 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: player like Micah Parsons. I think it says so much 116 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: about Green Bay and where they think they are and 117 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: where they think they are with Jordan Love, I'm sure 118 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is thinking like, oh great, why couldn't you 119 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: have done that when I was here? But Rogers was 120 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: viewed as the guy of being able to solve everything. 121 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: I think Green Bay is a complete team, like when 122 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: you look at Josh Jacobs, when you look at Jordan Love. 123 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: Their offensive line is intact. Their wide receiving corps was 124 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: the question. So you draft Matthew Golden. But still there's 125 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: even people trying to convince us how productive their receiving 126 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: corps was because you had so many different guys able 127 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: to contribute. Now at the start of the season, it's 128 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: going to be a question because you don't have Christian 129 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: Watson because he's hurt. Jayden Reid is digged up a 130 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 1: little bit, Romeo Dobbs can never stay on the field. 131 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: So there's there are names that Green Bay used to 132 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: rely on that you're not going to have early on 133 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: in the season. But the move to Micah Parson says, yeah, 134 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: we're ready to win a super Bowl. We want to 135 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 1: go to the Super Bowl. And for as much as 136 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: Philadelphia tries to defend it, if Philadelphia doesn't win this year, 137 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: guess what they won to last year. Green Bay doesn't 138 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: win it this year. To your point, it's a complete 139 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: fail because now you're dealing with Micah Parsons, and you're 140 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: dealing with the Micah Parsons who right now entering the 141 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: season is dealing with a back injury. So now you're 142 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: gonna want to maximize everything that you have with it. 143 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: And you don't have two first round picks because you 144 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: gave them up as part of the deal. 145 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 3: Maximize and then at the same time be cautious if 146 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 3: he really does have some sort of injury to his back. 147 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 3: You want to be cautious because you didn't just get 148 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: him for this year. 149 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 4: You sign him already to a four year extension. So 150 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 4: you're looking at the future. 151 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 3: But bringing up you brought up the Eagles a perfect 152 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 3: example though, But the Eagles are not running it right back. 153 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 3: They're missing five six big players that they had in 154 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: their Super Bowl team. The Packers are literally running it back. 155 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: And then some yes, it's a little bit different. So 156 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 3: it's like and then there's so much parody when it 157 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 3: comes to the division that the Eagles are in. We 158 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 3: hasn't been a repeat division winner since what the nineteen nineties, 159 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 3: something I maybe off, but I think is idea right, 160 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 3: And so the Packers literally like have no excuses at 161 00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 3: this point. 162 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: I agree, I think that there is. And I'm sitting 163 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: here because I'm in mid thought. When you look at 164 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: Detroit and you kind of laid out the division earlier, 165 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: everybody had some sort of subtractions. And we were doing 166 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: this game today. If you're just tuning in Monty and 167 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: I are with you here on Fox Sports Radio. We're 168 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: here a couple hours prior. We've got a basket of 169 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: NFL preview questions in our helmet of questions we all 170 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: wrote each other to answer for the upcoming season, And 171 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: I got a question earlier, who was this second year 172 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: quarterback that's going to take a step back. And I 173 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: said Jaydon Daniels, just because I think it's going to 174 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: be tough to match how well he did last year, 175 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: and all the things that went right for the Commanders 176 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: are gonna something's not gonna go right this year. I'm sorry. 177 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: It's just bound even out. At some point when you 178 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: look in the NFL, we're shocked that Matthew Stafford is 179 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: on track to start at quarterback for the Rams this 180 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Texans, and the Rams are the defending 181 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: NFC West champions. Sure people think it's stuff with the 182 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: forty nine ers and coming back the Buccaneers. I mean, 183 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: there's the wide receiver room in Tampa. Chris Godwin's still 184 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: trying to come back. Julia McMillan, Jalen McMillan, excuse me, 185 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 1: he's hurt, gonna miss maybe half the season. So there's 186 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: all these questions of these teams that you expect something from, 187 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: except Green Bay, where they've added and pushed it through. 188 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: I think that's I agree wholeheartedly that they have the 189 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: target on their back. They may not be the odds 190 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: on favorite to go to the Super Bowl, but they 191 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: have showed more than any other team in the NFC 192 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: that they're all in. But now this Micah Parsons back 193 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: situation is one that is I don't think that Green 194 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: Bay is overly concerned with the back issue. However, I 195 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: also thought the back issue was fake when Micah Parsons 196 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 1: was a member of the Dallas Cowboys. 197 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 4: I'm with you. I thought it was fake too. And 198 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 4: then even Micah, after he showed up in Green Bay and. 199 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 3: Had his first press conference, he said he was good 200 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 3: to go and that he was going to play. He's like, 201 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 3: I'm ready, like, let's go. But now this that you're 202 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 3: gonna get an Ampa jural to see to help you play, I'm. 203 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 4: Wondering if the Cowboys knew something we don't. 204 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: Know, if it was more serious, I think that the 205 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: NFL would have to step in in a certain way. 206 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: If there was something that was known or something that 207 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: was hidden. He obviously would have to pass the physical 208 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: with Jane Bay to be able to play. And he's 209 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: done that. He's wearing his new number one jersey. He's 210 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: been introduced. The trade has done. Cowboys are moving on. 211 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: They've got Kenny Clark. That's where we are. However, it 212 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: does bring up the point with Jerry Jones on the 213 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: reasons to do the deal, and it's funny. The reason 214 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: I think that we could talk about the Packers today, 215 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: Monci is because I felt that ever since the trade 216 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: was done on Thursday, it was all about the Cowboys 217 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 1: and Jerry Jones, that there wasn't this conversation about Bay 218 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: very much on what it does for the NFC. But 219 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: now that the dust is kind of settled on this deal, 220 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: it shows you on how Green Bay is all in 221 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: and how important that this season is for them. And 222 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: to have Micah Parsons dealing with a back issue that 223 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: may need an epidural in Week one, I think there 224 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: would be concerned. Listen, I get it to the Lions, 225 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: but considering the guy hasn't been at training camp of any. 226 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 4: Sorts into that position, why even. 227 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: Play on Sunday? I know, like you want to make 228 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 1: this great unveiling. And even though the Cowboys were saying 229 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: like we expect him to play, we expect him to 230 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: be there. If they were to play and you get 231 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: a couple of more days because you're not playing on 232 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: a Thursday, you're playing on a Sunday, I don't think 233 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: it would be the worst thing in the world for 234 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: Micah Parsons to sit out of that game against the Lions. 235 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: I would not rush it because I feel like back 236 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 3: issues are not something to take lightly. It's not it's 237 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 3: not a sprained ankle, it's not you know, the back 238 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 3: can be detrimental, and I you want him for the 239 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 3: long haul, So I'm with you. Why would you rush 240 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: him back if he just got there? 241 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 4: He just got there, He's been there a week. 242 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: Jason Stewart's our executive producer. 243 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 5: Remember Michah Parsons and or his team seemed to take 244 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 5: offense to Jerry Jones talking about his injuries from last 245 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 5: season in the negotiations, so that kind of aggravated the negotiations. 246 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 5: It was kind of dirty pool, I thought, because he 247 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 5: missed what he missed three games with a high ankle 248 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 5: sprain last year, if not more so, his availability was 249 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 5: called into question during the negotiations and then this. I 250 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 5: know it's a different injury and he's not available, but 251 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 5: it does play into this whole thing. What wasn't it 252 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 5: like ninety ten the ratio of people in our industry 253 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 5: who were calling Jerry Jones an idiot? For me, I 254 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 5: think skip Bayless is like the one won voice who 255 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 5: liked the trade, and it's like most of that was 256 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 5: how could you possibly do this? But if Michaeh. Parsons 257 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 5: miss his time this year, say, or if he becomes 258 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 5: a guy that's kind of a guy that isn't available, 259 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 5: like an Odell Beckham junior or something, will those same 260 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 5: people be like maybe Jerry Jones k Newdio was talking 261 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 5: about Or will they say no, Michael was injured so 262 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 5: we haven't been given the full Mica yet. Well, that 263 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 5: was one of the reasons that Jerry Jones specifically brought 264 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 5: up as a hesitation in this deal. 265 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: I think that Jerry was right in his thinking along 266 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: that way. I didn't hate the deal from the Cowboys 267 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: perspective because I just didn't think that the Cowboys were 268 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: a Micah Parson's long term deal away from winning Super Bowls. 269 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: At some point, you have to make a tough decision 270 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: and not pay someone, and they did. The only pushback 271 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: that I would give to that is the conversation around 272 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: the league. I think Jerry was founded in the negotiations 273 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: with Micah Parsons, but he was also speaking out of 274 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: both sides of his mouth because he said they had 275 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: a deal done back in April, So what changes between 276 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: now and then if you're using all of these reasons 277 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: to not give him that extra money that his agent 278 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: wanted him to have. So that's the only part with 279 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: Jerry where I say, Okay, great deal, but you were 280 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: willing to pay him in April, and now you're saying 281 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: that you're concerned about his injury history and what games 282 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: he missed in paying him X amount of money. I 283 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: also think that the deal that they got wasn't the 284 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: greatest deal to just get two first round picks and 285 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: a player to help stop the run, which they felt 286 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: was an issue of need. I felt that they could 287 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: have gotten more from another team or even from Green 288 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: Bay for Micah Parsons. So that's where I wouldn't let 289 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: Jerry off the hook because I feel in a way 290 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: he speaking out of both sides of his mouth from 291 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: saying that they had a deal done in April and 292 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: I thought that he could get more. But ultimately, to 293 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: your point, I think that Jerry Jones has a leg 294 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: to stand up. 295 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 3: I don't hate this deal for the Cowboys. I agree 296 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 3: with you, I think maybe he could have gotten more, 297 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 3: and what to answer your question first, Jason, I think 298 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 3: that there are only people that are gonna come out 299 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 3: and defend Jerry Jones. Might be Cowboys fans, but if 300 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 3: you're not a Cowboys fans, if you're not a Cowboy fan, 301 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 3: and even this goes well for the Cowboys, Jared, people 302 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 3: don't like to give Jerry Jones credit. 303 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 4: They just don't want to do that for some reason. 304 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 3: And the thing that I see here, it's like something 305 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 3: something happened where there was a switch for Jerry Jones, 306 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 3: as we're seeing in this documentary. The minute he felt 307 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 3: like Jimmy Johnson was no longer quote unquote loyal. 308 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 4: To him, he immediately got the boot. 309 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 3: I feel like there was something went down with the 310 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 3: agent behind closed doors that right there, something switch for 311 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: Jimmy or excuse me, for Jerry Jones, and he wanted 312 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 3: to make the trade happen yesterday. And that's why he 313 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 3: was like two first jounp picks, cool, go ahead, send 314 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 3: him on his merry way, shove it up that agent's ass. 315 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. That's that's the problem with Jared though, for the defenders, 316 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: is to have someone who's so emotional, fair to to 317 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: like when you're in that position. You can't be that 318 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: emotional in Jerry is and I think that's a knock 319 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: on his GM duties and in his role as the 320 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: general manager. 321 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 3: It's just hard because right he has had so much 322 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 3: success money wise that like he doesn't he doesn't think 323 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 3: he's doing a bad job. He's like, what are you 324 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: talking about? I have a billion dollar team? Yes, I 325 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 3: know I haven't won, but we're talking. 326 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: About it's the most valuable franchise. 327 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 4: I'm winning here. Where what are you talking about there? 328 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: Take the Luca deal to the Lakers. When you look 329 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: back on that deal, what was the worst part about 330 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: the deal? I'll tell you what mine is and then 331 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: then you can answer. I thought it was the return 332 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: return that Dallas got in getting an injured Anthony Davis. 333 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: So their concerns of trading Luka Doncic may have been, 334 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: may have been legit. Luca now getting into shape tells 335 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: us that he wasn't in shape previously, and Dallas may 336 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: have had those concerns, but it was the return for 337 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: what they got for him where we felt he could 338 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: have been shopped to other teams and you could have 339 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: gotten more. I don't think it's any different than what 340 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: Dallas has right now is Michael Parsons may have a 341 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: back issue and he may have an injury problem, but ultimately, 342 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: Jerry didn't get maximum value for the piece that he had, 343 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: and ultimately, I think that comes back to Jerry Jones 344 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: is not doing the job that he should have done 345 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: as a general manager to try to squeeze every amount 346 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: of juice in a trade that you can get out 347 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: of someone of the caliber of Michael Parsons. 348 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 3: I know there's a lot of similarities because it's Dallas, 349 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 3: poor Dallas fans, but I actually think they're not the same. 350 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 4: And I feel. 351 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 3: Like, like you said, the Cowboys were not a Micah 352 00:17:55,480 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 3: Parsons extension away from getting past a playoff win. One 353 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 3: playoff win, they weren't even there, let alone the Super Bowl. 354 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 3: The MAVs went to the finals with Luca because of Luca. 355 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 4: I don't think it's so much worse. 356 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 3: The Luca thing is so much worse, and you got 357 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 3: rid of one, the one guy who actually took you 358 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 3: to the finals. Micah and Luca to me are not 359 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 3: the same because the sports are different, not in levels 360 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 3: of skill, but just like what they mean to the sport. 361 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: I'm yeah, and I'm not, and I'm not, and I 362 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: think it's a very fair point. I think that you're 363 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: accurate with it. The point that I'm making is, even 364 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: if there was something that Dallas knew about Luca that 365 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be able to continue with, the rest of 366 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: the league doesn't know about it. So you're trying to 367 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,959 Speaker 1: get you know, what the real value of Luca is. 368 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: In who Luca is and why you're getting rid of him. 369 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: Everybody else doesn't know. They could have gotten more than 370 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: just two first round picks and Kenny Clark from it. 371 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: And I think that even though Jerry's right in doing 372 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: the deal, I mean, if Micah Parsons is limited and 373 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: is juredo throughout the next four years of his of 374 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: his contract, then Jerry wins the trade. But instead of 375 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,920 Speaker 1: winning thirty to nothing, I felt he could have won 376 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: fifty to nothing. Maybe in the end that doesn't matter 377 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: if you have that much of a much of a blowout, 378 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: but that's kind of how I view it. But I 379 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: think I think it's I think you bring up a 380 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: fair point that the you know, in comparing the two, 381 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: the Mavericks were almost to the mountaintop. 382 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 5: Jason Stewart now mons. You brought up the documentary. Now 383 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 5: have you have you finished it or you're still. 384 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 2: Three or four it? 385 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 4: Well, I know I'm on episode seven. 386 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 5: Okay, good Dan finished it. I finished it. I very 387 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 5: much recommend it. Now, Dan, as you were as you 388 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 5: were watching Jerry Jones stumble through this press conference trying 389 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 5: to justify the trade and everythink, did it also strike you? 390 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 5: Because it struck me this way that if you watch 391 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 5: the documentary, and you don't even have needed to see 392 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 5: the documentary to see to know this that Jerry Jones 393 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 5: and Jimmy Johnson parted ways for a lot of reasons, 394 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 5: but the main reason was is that they couldn't really 395 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 5: find any any common ground on who would take credit 396 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 5: for the herschel Walker deal. And to this day, Jimmy 397 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 5: Johnson it still irks him to even mention that it 398 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 5: was anybody other than Jimmy Johnson. It's a huge point 399 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 5: of contention. And as I'm watching Jerry Jones stumble through 400 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 5: this press conference on Thursday night, I want to say, 401 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 5: I'm thinking this is Jerry's herschel Walker. Now, if this 402 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 5: deal works out and these draft picks pan out and 403 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 5: Michael Parsons isn't great on the Packers. Jerry Jones could 404 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 5: for once say that he pulled off the deal and 405 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 5: it was his decision. Only you get any of that 406 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 5: vibe out of this. 407 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: I think that's a fair assessment. I yeah, I do 408 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: get that vibe. I will also say this that I 409 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: think that throughout the layers of that documentary, the first 410 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: one of the money that he owed to people, not 411 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: only in trying to strike oil in Texas, where he 412 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 1: said that this was kind of his last shot or 413 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: one of his last shots, because he owed people so 414 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: much money, so much so that he was going to 415 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: team up with Jimmy Hoffa to try to buy the Chargers, 416 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: like he was willing to do these things, but that 417 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: they're not as on firm ground as he wants you 418 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: to think that they are. So that was the revealing 419 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: thing to me, is Jerry is telling us on how 420 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 1: much they were losing money with the Cowboys early on, 421 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: with the organization and the millions of dollars that they 422 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: were losing. So in all these times where he's made 423 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,479 Speaker 1: a big move or made a big splash, he hasn't 424 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: been in the catbird seat. And that's how I feel 425 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: about this situation. But to bring up the Jimmy Johnson thing, 426 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 1: to have this be his deal. Yeah, I could see 427 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: that of him wanting this on, you know, in. 428 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 3: His obit because we talk about he's emotional, like these 429 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 3: other things. He thinks about it, like as much as 430 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 3: he's a businessman, he is very emotionally involved, and that 431 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 3: would be a victory that he would be able to 432 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 3: claim solely by himself. 433 00:21:59,000 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 4: So I totally see that. 434 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: Absolutely, it's yes. I think that there are parallels, yes, 435 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 1: absolutely to it. And this could be Jerry's I'm the 436 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: one who did the money, remember that, Why did you 437 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 1: get more? Why you could have gotten more? 438 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 4: Set down? 439 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: She's I'm Dan Byer.

Will Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift 444 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: secretly get married during the season? 445 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 4: I wonder who wrote that one. 446 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I can tell it's girls handwriting. I can tell 447 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's girl's handwriting. I'm sure Manzi wrote it. 448 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 4: No, and you want to know why, Why because they're 449 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 4: already married. 450 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: No, because Travis Kelcey is committed to focusing on this season. 451 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: And what an awful look to think that you're going 452 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: to get married between now and February when you said 453 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: you were all in on this year. 454 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 2: That's not completely his choice though. 455 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: That's true. That is very true, Chris Purfect. 456 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 2: Just when when sheesus decides to start putting the pressure 457 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 2: on it.

We're gonna hear from Tom 472 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,360 Speaker 1: Brady in a second. But Manzi's preview question is will. 473 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 3: Shador Sanders do a postgame interview for a game he 474 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 3: didn't play in? 475 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: Mmm? Interesting? That was my question? That was that was 476 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: my question. Imagine how ridiculous that would Shadora doesn't play 477 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: and then you go in the locker room and there's 478 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: eight reporters around this locker room him. 479 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 4: Yes, what'd you think of this? 480 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on the twenty four to nothing lost? 481 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 4: Do you think you should have gone in in the 482 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 4: fourth quarter? 483 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: Yeah? Do you think you will answer the question? It 484 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 1: seems this is a very simple null, but apparently it isn't. Again, 485 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 1: he didn't play in the game. He probably doesn't even 486 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: have to shower. 487 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 4: He better not. How about that? 488 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 2: He will he even be in a jersey? Will he 489 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 2: even be in pads? 490 00:24:55,280 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 4: No? He better not. But I feel like there's the 491 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 4: chest I. 492 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 2: This this started a whole gambling segment I do on 493 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 2: the weekends.

It's just it's it's fascinating how much attention 498 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 2: has just been beyond the pale at this point. 499 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: Yes, which I think makes my question so much more 500 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: ridiculous yet somehow creaky from what mons from Monzi's have 501 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 1: to deal with. So you think you're saying yes no. 502 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 4: The answer should be answer is no, Whether. 503 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 2: There's a chance now, I guess. 504 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 5: Then I guess there is kind of like this uh 505 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 5: side bar of of options you're talking about, like an 506 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 5: interview from the team reporters, or even like a national interview. 507 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 5: But I could see some like I don't know, like 508 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 5: uh pop culture website doing an interview that doesn't count, 509 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 5: though that's not the nature of the question, correct now. 510 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 5: It does remind me of second right, right right. It 511 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 5: reminds me of something I posted last week, and I 512 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,479 Speaker 5: don't think anyone here Chris doesn't follow me on Twitter, 513 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 5: and I'll try not to take offense to that. And 514 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 5: then you guys both follow me, you didn't share it 515 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 5: or like it, so I'm assuming you just didn't see it. 516 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 5: I sent out a tweet it was quote tweeting the 517 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 5: story that Shador Sanders is an Emergency three for the Browns, 518 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 5: and I said, so his branding team needs to change 519 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 5: legendary to emergency three on all of their merchandise. 520 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 1: What do you guys think that's like me bounce? 521 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 4: You're trying to do. 522 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 3: This with me bounce Emergency three, Emergency three. 523 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 5: I got my Emergency three T shirt. 524 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 2: Can get a sponsorship with emergency. 525 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: See three. 526 00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 4: You guys are onto something. You're onto something. 527 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: I'll let's talk to some Tom Brady or let's hear 528 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: from Tom Brady. We'll be on the call Sunday for 529 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: Fox as a Week one in the NFL season opens up. 530 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: This is what the hall seemed to be a Hall 531 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: of Fame quarterback said about what he looks for in 532 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: other quarterbacks. 533 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 7: That's what I look for all the time when a 534 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 7: quarterbacks throws a touchdown pass. I actually watched to see 535 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 7: who he goes and celebrates with, because what did I do? 536 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 7: I looked for my offensive lineman every time I went 537 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 7: down and celebrated in the end zone with my teammates, 538 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 7: every time I wanted everyone to feel like they were 539 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 7: part of the success. I told the lineman, we're all 540 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 7: running to the end zone and we're celebrating as a team, 541 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 7: because I think that's way more intimidating than a quarterback 542 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 7: doing his six shooter guns and pointing up in the 543 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 7: crowd and doing all that other that's very self promotional, 544 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 7: but it's not about winning, and I think winning in 545 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 7: football is about a team, always a team attitude. 546 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: First PFF podcast with that, does Tom Brady have a 547 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: point when judging other quarterbacks? 548 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 3: I mean, such a good point. I think he's a 549 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 3: goat for a reason. But that word intimidating. It's interesting 550 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 3: that he chose that word, but I understand what he's saying. 551 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 3: If you're playing against the team that looks like they 552 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 3: are one team, the brotherhood is alive and thriving, versus 553 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 3: individual performances of guys just wanting to toot their own horn, 554 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 3: it is more intimidating to face a team like that, 555 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 3: that a complete team, versus one guy who's trying. 556 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 4: To get all the credit. Like I feel like you can. 557 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 3: If I'm playing against a team in a sport and 558 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 3: there's one person who seems to not be cohesive with 559 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 3: the team, I'm gonna try to take them out mentally. 560 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 3: That is the first Domino to fall. Take that one out, 561 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 3: and then maybe the other. 562 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 4: Starts to fall apart. And so I totally understand. 563 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: That I do look at that. I watch that, I 564 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: watch that I watch, I watch postgame handshakes or our 565 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: old buddy George Reister who used to team up with 566 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: on the network. I joke that they're should be a 567 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: velvet rope and a red carpet for people to line 568 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: up to shake Tom Brady's hand after the game, because 569 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: not everybody does. He can't shake every player's hands, so 570 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: like there's a level of and I was somewhat joking. 571 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: I was joking, but almost not really, but in a 572 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: way like okay, you can't just go up, just like 573 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: when Jamison Williams asked for Aaron Rodgers jersey after the 574 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: last Lions Packers game that Rogers had, like all right, 575 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: you're not getting it, and second of all, you're not 576 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: even close to the level of player that would get 577 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: that jersey. Like I guess, you know, it never hurts 578 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: to ask, But I'll watch that. I'll watch when a 579 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: quarterback throws it to his teammate this celebration if there's 580 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: thought to be any you know, like rift, like Josh 581 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: Allen Stefan Diggs remember when they were teammates in Buffalo 582 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: and we thought that there may be was a fallout 583 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: if Josh Allen throws him a touchdown? Are they shaking hands? 584 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: Are they? Are they? Buddy? Buddy? I watch those things 585 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: and I'm actually surprised that Tom Brady does as well. 586 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: And Doug Gottlieb here on the network talks about how 587 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: he was called out in a film review when he 588 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: was playing basketball at Notre Dame and he wasn't cheering 589 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: for his teammates on the sideline, and the coach circled 590 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: it and said, like, why aren't you cheering? And it's 591 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: something that he had never forgotten. I think it is 592 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: a big deal. 593 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 3: It is a big deal, and it is shocking to 594 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 3: hear Tom Brady. Sorry, I mean to cut you off, 595 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 3: Tom Brady, to say it like that out loud. Do 596 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 3: you also watch when somebody when a player drops a 597 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 3: pass to see how the quarterback reacts. 598 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 4: I also look at that too, just to see how 599 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 4: frustrated the quarterback looks. 600 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 3: Yes at times, you know, or is it just like 601 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 3: all right, moving on to the next play, or how 602 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 3: much are they holding onto it? 603 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: I look at who helps up who in an NBA game. 604 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: I look at who shakes who's ever hand slapping five 605 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: at the free throw line, all of that stuff. 606 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 3: I mean you mentioned Doug Doug Gottlieb's example at Notre Dame. 607 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 3: Remember when Lebron broke the all time scoring record and 608 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 3: then Anthony Davis. 609 00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 4: Was like not celebrating. 610 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, like he was just off to the side, like 611 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 3: just kind of like over it. Like that's something you 612 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 3: we all remember that one. You pay attention to the 613 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 3: little things. 614 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: Like this, Yes, and that's what makes Tom Brady got 615 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: Brady the goat the Goat.

Yes, And 646 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: I think to your point, you're thinking super Bowl is 647 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: tough because not only it's the game, but it's the 648 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: end of football. I hate the end of summer. I 649 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,719 Speaker 1: really do. I love Fall of everything that comes with it, 650 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: but the end of summer I become a summer person. 651 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: I've said this over like the last decade or so. 652 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: I don't know why.

What we've been doing is we 673 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: threw a bunch of questions into the hat. 674 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 4: Oh Dodgers, not your helmet. 675 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it isn't real because it doesn't have la. 676 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: It just says Dodgers on top of it instead of 677 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: the logo. 678 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 2: No, that would be an l a hat. 679 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: Oh boy, here we go, not the whole deal, all right, 680 00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: Chris Burfett, you want to draw? 681 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, let's see here. This one's in like the 682 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 2: shape of a crane. I don't know who decided to. 683 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: Fold this one gotta be adjacent one. 684 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:12,239 Speaker 2: Who is even positioned as the surprise team this year? 685 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 2: I okay, spoiler this is one I wrote. But oh okay, 686 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: I just I wrote this because I feel like looking 687 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 2: at I just we just did the predictions over the 688 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 2: weekend of like the teams, I don't feel like there's 689 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 2: any surprise this year. It feels like a lot of chalk. 690 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 2: It feels like we've come into this year. We do 691 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 2: this kind of every year where we kind of already 692 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 2: pick out who are the teams, but there's not a 693 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 2: lot of room I feel like for surprise teams. If 694 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 2: the Falcons are good, I think we saw the roots 695 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 2: for that, but there's no team like last year was 696 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 2: it was the Commanders. No one was talking about the 697 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 2: Commanders being a good to a playoff, a NFC championship 698 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 2: contender that they turned into last year and I'm looking 699 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 2: around the league, and I'm not sure if there's a 700 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: lot of room for surprise teams like that. So I 701 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 2: guess maybe the Cardinals if they shape things up. 702 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 1: I think that's a good pick. 703 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 2: But like, besides that, there's not a lot of like latitude. 704 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,720 Speaker 2: I feel like there we've got a clear upper class 705 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 2: and a clear lower class right now. To the NFL. 706 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,840 Speaker 1: I like Chris wrote a question that we would be 707 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: like no one, really no one, and. 708 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 4: He wanted to answer it to no one? 709 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: Did you like freeze the answer like the eighty five 710 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: draft lottery? 711 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 2: No? 712 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 1: No, who's the frozen question? 713 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 2: You think I'm smart enough to do something like that. 714 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: I'll I think you're very smart, but maybe not to 715 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 1: those you know, deceitful levels. I will say this, I 716 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: think in the divisions where we think there could be 717 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: a surprise, the teams are so tough at the top, 718 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: like the NFC East. Yeah, I'd be shocked if the 719 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 1: Giants or Dallas made it through, not because I think 720 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 1: so poorly of those teams, but also you have to 721 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: navigate through Philadelphia and Washington. He used the Falcons as 722 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: an example. Would be would be would we be shocked 723 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 1: if Carolina made this run. I think we'd be very surprised, 724 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: but I don't know if we'd be shocked because I 725 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,720 Speaker 1: don't think we look at that as a really strong division. 726 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 4: Fair and you're right on the money. Yes, I agree 727 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 4: with you. 728 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 3: And I was gonna say, like, are you talking about 729 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 3: divisions to come out of nowhere or like. 730 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: To come out No, just a team to come out 731 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 2: of there, like how the Commanders came out of the 732 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: East last year. 733 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I you know, Hey, let's put it on the Buccaneers. 734 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 3: I know they're gonna have some players missing, but I 735 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 3: think the Buccaneers can surprise. 736 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: No, it would because they made the playoffs the last 737 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 1: two years. What are you talking about? Did we already 738 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: know the Buccaneers? 739 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 4: No, to actually come out of the NFC. 740 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: Oh, to go to the Super Bowl? 741 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 3: Yes, all right, okay, Yeah, to actually come out of 742 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 3: the NFC, That's. 743 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 4: What I meant. 744 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: She's Monty, I'm dan More.
