1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:02,120 Speaker 1: The volume. 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 2: Our wild Card reaction is presented by uber eats get 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 2: game day deals all season long. We have on uber eats. 4 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 3: All right. 5 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: Instant reaction on tonight's twenty three to twenty walk off 6 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: doink by the Commanders to beat Tampa an upset, But 7 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 2: if you had to pick one, you know this may 8 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 2: have been the upset. I don't think many people thought 9 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 2: Denver or green Bay were going to come out with wins. 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 2: I'm a little surprised, but I mean, as Jaden Daniels 11 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 2: the best rookie quarterback ever. I mean, he had a 12 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 2: little bit of turbulence in the mid season, but it's 13 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 2: a lot like Andrew Luck. I mean, Andrew Lock came 14 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 2: into the league with a terrible roster and this isn't 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 2: a great one. It's better than Andrew Lucks. But Andrew 16 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 2: Luck was a top ten quarterback as a rookie, intelligence, toughness, mobility, 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: arm Jaden's much thinner, He's not quite a rugged. I mean, 18 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 2: the guy finished. I think I'm right on this fifth 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 2: fourth quarter comeback this season. That's tied with Patrick Mahomes 20 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 2: for the most in the NFL. I mean, it was interesting. 21 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 2: I guess this was my best prediction of the year. 22 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 2: I picked Washington to be a playoff team, and I 23 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: think that's one of my favorite things to do, is 24 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 2: do future bets where you try to predict. I picked 25 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: Washington and Denver were my surprise teams last year. It 26 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: was the Rams year before it was Minnesota. I have 27 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 2: as much fun doing that as anything. But I didn't 28 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 2: think Jaden Daniels would be this. I knew Cliff Kingsbury 29 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 2: pounded the table for him. The kid, his quickness, his smarts, 30 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: I mean in the red zone, I'm looking at this. 31 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: On fourth down tonight, his passer rating was one oh 32 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: three's that's just incredible. On the final drive, you know, 33 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: three for three, ran for a first fifty seven passing yards. 34 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: His decision making. I mean, do you know how fast 35 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 2: you got to be above the shoulders to do all 36 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: this stuff. I mean some of it's, you know, you're 37 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: just kind of instinctive. Like obviously, great athletes are just 38 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 2: naturally gifted. But I've said this about some players in sports, 39 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: like some guys. I mean, Lebron broke into the NBA 40 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: and he was such a smart player, had some limitations 41 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: early on shooting from the outside, but he just had 42 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 2: a feel for the game. This kid's making decisions in 43 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: crisis in a congested red zone that, I mean, like 44 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: eight year veterans make. I just I can't tell you 45 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: how impressed I am with Jayden Daniels. And I had 46 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: said Friday on the show, I like Tampa to win. 47 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: And the only way that I thought Washington would win, 48 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: because Tampa's got a better overall roster was if you 49 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: know Jade and Daniels just perform magic. Yeah he did. 50 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 2: What was he twenty four or thirty five and seven 51 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 2: yards two two? D's no picks eleven rushes eight for 52 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: fifteen on third down. I mean, and Tampa's defense is 53 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 2: you know, Vita via upfront. I mean, it's active. Todd 54 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: Bowles likes, it's aggressive. Tampa's always been a little bit 55 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: of an underrated place to play. It gets pretty rowdy 56 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:25,399 Speaker 2: down in Tampa. Now they're on to Detroit, which will 57 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: be a real test for Washington. But I think what 58 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 2: you're watching this all time stuff, and you know, and 59 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 2: I'm going to talk to John Middlcoff today about We've 60 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: got a really good podcast that talks about Mike Tomlin, 61 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 2: Mike Vrabel, Eagles, Packers, Bill's Broncos at the end of 62 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: it twenty minutes. I think you'll be interested. John, a 63 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: native Californian, his thoughts on the wildfires and the disaster 64 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: in California. I think you'll really enjoy it. I'm sitting 65 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 2: there watching that game tonight and I thought, after that 66 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 2: goal line stand by Tampa, that was a great goal 67 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: line stand, I thought, wow, that's game changing. And then 68 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: Tampa fumbles, Washington gets it right back in jad and 69 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: Daniels throws a ball a seed to the back of 70 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 2: the end zone. But you got to give Dan coinn 71 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 2: the credit too, because Dan, you know, a lot of 72 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 2: people would have struggled to go forward on fourth down. 73 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 2: But that's very Dan Campbell. So Dan Quinn's a very 74 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 2: aggressive guy. Dan Campbell's a very aggressive guy. You'll see 75 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 2: Mike Rabele do this in New England. Very aggressive guys. 76 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 2: They're trying to create a culture, a culture of confidence, 77 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: a culture of alpha, a culture of belief. And when 78 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 2: you're as bad as Washington has been for this long, 79 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 2: you've got to really change everything. I remember when Barry 80 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: Alvarez took over Wisconsin and Wisconsin was a bottom ten 81 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: college football program. And they had outdated facilities, and nobody 82 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 2: thought Camp Randall was an intimidating place to play. And 83 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: you know, Barry Alvarez was like, you've got to be proud. 84 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 2: I mean, we are so lucky to have these facilities. 85 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 2: And he really changed the way Badger players thought about 86 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 2: Badger facilities and Camp Randall in the stadium and the environment. 87 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: And he just instilled this pride, in this confidence in 88 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 2: wis Wisconsin Badger football. And you can go back and 89 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 2: look at it. You know, it took a couple of years, 90 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: but I can remember him going to Rose Bulls and 91 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: Wisconsin was just big, tough, physical, a little bit like 92 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: Barry Alvarez, Oh h'sba A lot of confidence. And I 93 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 2: think that's what and I think players become the coach. 94 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, Detroit a lot of belief. 95 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 2: Say what you want about the Chargers end of the season, 96 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 2: but the defense was tough and physical, and I think 97 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,239 Speaker 2: dan Quinn has implemented that. That's why he's going forward 98 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,239 Speaker 2: on fourth down. It's like, hey, we've got nothing to lose. 99 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 2: It's in Tampa. Baker Mayfield's a veteran, I got a 100 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: rookie quarterback I'm going for it house money here and 101 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 2: I love it high pressure situations. And obviously, and I 102 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: had noted this multiple times. You know, there's kind of 103 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 2: a rule when you get a rookie quarterback is downplay 104 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 2: it in camp, like you know, hey, it's going to 105 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: take a time. Let's reset expectations. When dan Quinn and 106 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 2: Cliff Kingsbury came out in camp and we're like, yeah, 107 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: this kid's unbelievable. Already knows the playbook. I mean, it's unbelievable. 108 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: What a leader he is. 109 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: You're like, and dan Quinn's been around the block, and 110 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: dan Quinn was just heaping praise on Jaden Daniels in 111 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: camp before preseason games, and you're thinking, man, this kid 112 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: must be really, really special. 113 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: And you read some of those early DC media reports 114 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 2: i'd bed anyway in the Athletic or in print, and 115 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: you're like, man, this kid is tearing it up. It 116 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: is camp. But it's not that Washington doesn't McLaurin. Terry 117 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: mclaurin's a great player, and they've got some defensive linemen. 118 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 3: They have talent. 119 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 2: That's not make it. The Commanders don't have talent, but 120 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 2: it's it's all centered around, an aggressive coach and a 121 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: remarkable rookie quarterback. And I've noted this a few times before. 122 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: I grew up in the seventies and eighties and Washington 123 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: was a football power and there was like a thirty 124 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 2: year waiting list for tickets. This is a win starved 125 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: football community. DC loves it's NFL football, and I just 126 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: welcome back. This is great. Detroit is a big lift, 127 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 2: but I think we're all watching an all timer in 128 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels. Mobility, release, accuracy, twitchiness. I mean, just to 129 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: be this good in the fourth quarter and on fourth 130 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: down and on third down in a playoff game, you 131 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 2: just don't see this. You get all the upside occasional picks, 132 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 2: but you bake that in for somebody his age, you 133 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: bake it in. What a performance. I mean, this is 134 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 2: the first Commander playoff win in twenty years. But they 135 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: had talent for years, but they were so poorly owned 136 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 2: and so poorly run and so poorly coached, like they 137 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: had players. It just upstairs was such a chaotic zoo. 138 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 2: And the line is out. The Lions are minus eight 139 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: and a half against the Commanders. That's a big number, 140 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: but so was Buffalo. Over Denver, and so was Baltimore 141 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: over Pittsburgh. I'm not sure which we id lean on 142 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 2: that to go into Tampa and win with something else, 143 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: finally got ourselves a close playoff game. I'll walk off 144 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 2: point and for Tampa. Hell of a year. Baker Mayfield 145 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: earned every bit of that contract. One of the more 146 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: underrated underplay paid play in the league. I mean Baker 147 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 2: is He is one of the most underpaid players in 148 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:09,239 Speaker 2: the league right now and earned every penny of his contract. 149 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: Tip of the cap. Great year, rough loss, but you 150 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,599 Speaker 2: may have lost to the next great superstar quarterback in 151 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 2: the NFL.

But John Millicoff 181 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 2: and I are here to discuss Philadelphia's win over Green Bay, 182 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 2: Denver getting hammered by Buffalo despite scoring first. We'll get 183 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: to Mike Rable to the Patriots and Mike Tomlin's disaster 184 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: against the Ravens. Let's start with Philadelphia's sort of dominating 185 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 2: win from the opening kickoff that was fumbled. You Packer 186 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: fans grumbling about that, You know, John, as I looked 187 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: at the weekend, Buffalo much better than Denver, Baltimore, much 188 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 2: better than Pittsburgh, Philly, much better than Green Bay. If 189 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 2: you go to last year's wild card weekend as well, 190 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 2: there were some really lobsided scores. And this is something 191 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 2: I've hit on a lot as the league, and I've 192 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 2: been on this for about three years. As the league 193 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 2: has tilted the rules towards the offense. Quarterback now is 194 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: the only way seemingly to win. The better quarterback and 195 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: today Jalen Hurts wasn't great, but Jordan Love, like he 196 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: was in college, was reckless. I do feel like this year, 197 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 2: more than any I can remember, it had an NBA feel, 198 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 2: four or five six teams at the top, special a 199 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: pretty small middle, and a bunch of garbage in the 200 00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 2: back end. I mean, were you surprised by Philadelphia controlling 201 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 2: this game over Green Bay? 202 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 3: Well, Jalen was not very good, and granted he hadn't 203 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 3: played in a while because of the concussion, and he 204 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 3: looked I would say, you know, before they kind of 205 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 3: hit their stride, their offense had struggled passing wise, and 206 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 3: he wasn't good. The problem is Jordan Love was atrocious. 207 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 3: Jordan Love saw justin Herbert's effort and tried to duplicate 208 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 3: it because I mean, he throwing those interceptions all over 209 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 3: the place, and I know he's banged up, but that 210 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 3: offense was I thought if they would have played not 211 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 3: the game they played last year against the Cowboys, but 212 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 3: just had a solid offensive performance, they would have been 213 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 3: right in it. Yeah, and he kind of he shot 214 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 3: him right out of the game really really quick, because 215 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 3: I think how often during the McCarthy era and then 216 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: even during the laflor era with with Rogers early on, 217 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 3: the defense often let the Packers down. They were joke 218 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 3: on him. Ye're Actually they played. 219 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 2: Pretty good today and they kept him in the game. 220 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 3: Their offense was really really bad. I'm not shocked I 221 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: mean Bo Nicks on the road rookie quarterback in Buffalo 222 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 3: Wilson in that performance. I think we both saw that coming. 223 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 3: I would say the Herbert performance was, you know, it's 224 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 3: one of the worst games you'll ever see him play 225 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 3: for sure. 226 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: Well, and I talked about this yesterday in the pod. 227 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 2: They don't have a number one receiver, they're number two. 228 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 2: Palmer was hurt. Their best receiver, Keenan Allen's a bear, 229 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: you know. I mean, it's what happens in these playoff games. 230 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: Young road quarterback falls behind, you know, starts making throws 231 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 2: he may hold back on in the regular season because 232 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 2: he knows it's the last game of the year. I mean, 233 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: I thought Jordan Love made some throws today that felt like, hey, 234 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 2: I got to get some juice here, I got to 235 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 2: make something happen. I don't know if he makes those 236 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 2: throws three weeks ago, four weeks ago. So I kind 237 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: of defend quarterbacks young quarterbacks who, By the way, Jordan 238 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 2: Love's always been a bit reckless. He's always been more 239 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 2: farv than he has Aaron Rodgers. And I'll give the 240 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 2: Packers credit, Xavier McKinney. They went out and spent some 241 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 2: money on Josh Jacobs. You know, green Bay historically in 242 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 2: the free agent market doesn't take a lot of swings. 243 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 2: I thought they did. I think they need a pass rusher. 244 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 2: I think that's and I could. You know, we'll see 245 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 2: what they do at corner. I don't feel bad about 246 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: this for green Bay. I don't. I think they're young. 247 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 2: I don't think they have Philadelphia's roster. They were on 248 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 2: the road that didn't play well down the stretch like 249 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 2: I thought Philly would win. It was a weird game. 250 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 2: I mean green Bay was out of rhythm, out of 251 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: sorts offensively. But I don't feel like if you're a 252 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: Packer fan, you look at this hell at one point 253 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: they were down six and were being totally dominated. 254 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 3: Totally well. I mean, listen, even if some miracle they 255 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 3: would have been able to kind of get back in 256 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 3: this game, they had lost half their team. They would 257 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 3: have had no chance to play anybody after this game 258 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 3: with all their injuries. And one thing that really stands 259 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 3: out when you just look at this weekend, but specifically 260 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 3: that you know when it comes to the Eagles, they 261 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 3: spend a lot of money on Vic Fangio and that defense. 262 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: As the season has gone on has looked fantastic. I 263 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 3: mean the two young defensive backs they signed Zach Bond. 264 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 3: He played a different position. They moved him to line 265 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 3: like stand up middle linebacker. He became a first team 266 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 3: All Pro. That happens when you hire one of the 267 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 3: best defensive coordinators in the NFL. And you know, look 268 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: at Miami, they were complaining that Vic Fangio was an 269 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 3: asshole and demanded too much of them. Yeah you think, Philly, 270 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, I mean, Mike McDaniel. I don't 271 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 3: know if you saw the story last week. He said, 272 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 3: I can't find these guys enough. They just don't show 273 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 3: up on time. Meanwhile, Philly y'urned for that accountability and 274 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 3: look what it shows now their defense. Listen the playoffs. 275 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 3: Sometimes your quarterback is just gonna play like crap or 276 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 3: have rough stretches. Your defense can carry you. Defense the 277 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 3: history of this league, even as rules have changed, the 278 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 3: best defense is win in January's no different college football. 279 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 3: You gotta have big time defensive plays in these big 280 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 3: games because you're playing All Pro Hall of Fame level 281 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 3: guys on offense. 282 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think Also Philadelphia take out the 283 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: concussion for Jalen Hurts. From week four on, Philadelphia was humming. 284 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 2: They weren't very good in the first quarter, but they 285 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 2: finally got good in the first quarter late in the season. 286 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 2: They took a ten tozhing lead in this one. But 287 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 2: all year along with Philly from about week four on, 288 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 2: we were like, God, they're awful in the first quarter, 289 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: but they're really good. We said this two years ago 290 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 2: about Philadelphia. We said it the first ten weeks of 291 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 2: last year, like for seven weeks of last year. If 292 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 2: you go to Philadelphia over the last three years, there 293 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: have been stretches where they looked like the forty nine 294 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: ers four years ago. They just have more good players. 295 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 3: Well, think about this. If you just said who are 296 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 3: the best players on Philadelphia's offense, you would list You 297 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 3: would probably include some offensive lineman before you even got 298 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 3: to Dallas Goddard. You'd be like a guy seven or eight. 299 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 3: He made a play tonight that looked like a high 300 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 3: school kid that's going to Alabama Ohio State would make 301 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 3: you know in a high school game. And again that's 302 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 3: by far. Saquon Jalen the two wide receivers. He is 303 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 3: their fifth weapon and he's a Pro Bowl level ten. 304 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 3: I mean that play. It does sometimes in the playoffs. 305 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 3: Obviously x's nose play a big role, and the best 306 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 3: coaches are usually playing in these games. But sometimes you 307 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 3: get a one on one against another guy and you 308 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 3: shot with Jacobs like the cream of the crop rises 309 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 3: in January, and that played by Dallas Goddard. I mean wow. 310 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 3: I mean, if that's your fifth option on offense, good 311 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 3: luck trying to stop them. 312 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think you see it in college and 313 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 2: you see it in the pros. You know, in college, 314 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,360 Speaker 2: what schools have better recruiters, Ryan Day and more transfer 315 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 2: portal money, Ohio State. You know, go look at who's 316 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 2: left Marcus Freeman, Ryan Day and Chip Kelly, pretty good staffs. 317 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 2: And then you go in the NFL and who has 318 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: the best general managers? Well, Kansas City, Brett Veech, Howie Roseman, 319 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 2: a lot of that. Detroit, by the way, has been 320 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 2: on like a four year run. 321 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 3: Baltimore, Yep. 322 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 2: You start looking around this league, and I mean Philadelphia 323 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 2: in the end, I think we've felt this for three years. 324 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 2: When he had Shane Stichen, they were good enough to 325 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 2: win the Super He had a couple of bad picks 326 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 2: at coordinators. They righted the ship this year. For all 327 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 2: my misgivings about Nick Sirianni, this freaking roster is good. 328 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 2: I mean, God, Slay today had a great pick, and 329 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 2: I mean he's a guy now that's fallen sort of, 330 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 2: you know, off the out of the front page of 331 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 2: the sports section in Philly because they've got these two 332 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 2: Mitchell and the other corner. So I mean, Philadelphia, when 333 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 2: Slay can be like the third most talked about corner 334 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 2: you have, I just think Philadelphia again. I look at 335 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 2: Green Bay and I think to myself, you know what, 336 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 2: if you're gonna lose, You're gonna lose twenty two to 337 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: ten to Philadelphia on a game that Jordan loved, didn't 338 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 2: play well. It's not a terrible day for the Packers. 339 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: They're not call equipped to beat this team in Philly. 340 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 3: No, I no, I agree. I think if you're a 341 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 3: Packer fan, especially, I think you've kind of come to 342 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 3: grips with it down the stretch. But I think big picture, 343 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 3: they got to figure Love out a little bit. I mean, 344 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 3: I was high on him after last year. This year 345 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 3: was a little bit of a roller coaster ride. Obviously, 346 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 3: the injuries played up, but this reckless nature. I mean, 347 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 3: but far as one of the greatest players in the 348 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 3: history of the league. For like a ten year stretch, 349 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 3: you want three straight MVPs, you can't just you don't 350 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 3: just get to play like Brett Forth. You know, you 351 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 3: gotta corral yourself a little bit. And that's why they 352 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: went out and got Josh Jacobs right just to just 353 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 3: kind of I would say, take a little pressure off 354 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 3: of Jordan Love. But man, I mean, at one point 355 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 3: in time on a second interception, he had thrown two 356 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 3: last year against the Niners, and then to this game 357 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 3: in the first half. That was four interceptions through his 358 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 3: last six quarters in the playoffs. You can't win like that. 359 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 3: I'd rather have a guy playing like crap, like Jalen Hurts, 360 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 3: who's not turning the ball over. At least I just 361 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 3: punt and play defense. 362 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 2: By the way, there's a play that happened in this 363 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: game with about a minute left where Saquon Barkley got 364 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 2: a handoff, could have broken for a sixty seventy yard touchdown, 365 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 2: and instead he slid to end the game essentially, and 366 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 2: it really states I'll tell you something, Saquon Barkley has 367 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 2: been such a class guy in this league in New York. 368 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,439 Speaker 2: He comes out smelling like a rose when he gets traded. 369 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 2: He didn't complain about, you know, not breaking the all 370 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: time single season record that slide at the end of 371 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 2: the game against Green Bay. I got to tell you something. 372 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 2: There are not many running backs that I can remember. 373 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 2: I loved Walter Payton just as a guy, as a human. 374 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 2: I love McCaffrey. I've met Christian a couple of times. 375 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 2: I by the way, can we just admit this. This 376 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 2: is a Saquon Barkley led team. I mean they Jalen 377 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 2: Hurts went two quarters without a completion. This is Saquon 378 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 2: Barkley's team. And by the way, I love it. He 379 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 2: is really If somebody gave him MVP and it'll go 380 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 2: to a quarterback, I just there's everything about him. His toughness, 381 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: his elusiveness, his intelligence, his class. I just think he 382 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 2: is such and And the truth is, Jalen Hurts I 383 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: don't think I think he's got enough self confidence. I 384 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 2: don't think it bothers him at all. I don't think 385 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 2: it bother's Lamar Jackson that Derek Henry gets all the flowers. 386 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 2: I think it's just a really cool thing when star 387 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 2: quarterbacks are fans of the star running back. 388 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 3: Well. I think one thing with the Eagles specifically is 389 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 3: is Jalen. I think Lamar is more of a little 390 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: He's got more raw raw to him in terms of 391 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: outspoken leadership inside those walls. That's not Jalen's thing. And 392 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 3: last year, think of who retired on their team. Jason Kelsey, 393 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 3: one of the greatest players in the history of the franchise, 394 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 3: and Fletcher Cox. I mean, those are two guys that 395 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 3: are going to be in the Ring of Honor that 396 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 3: were the leaders on the team. So you replace him, 397 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 3: like Saquon Barkley. One thing I don't think Howie gets 398 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 3: enough credit, And I think he's learned this is like 399 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 3: you know, he was pigeonholed early as being like an 400 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 3: analytical GM like a Daryl Morey. Daryl Mory doesn't give 401 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 3: a shit about character cohesion. He just puts the best 402 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 3: players together, right. How he has learned to value that greatly. 403 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 3: And Saquon Barkley, obviously he has to have the ability 404 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 3: when you're gonna pay a guy money, But from the 405 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 3: off the field character stuff seamless fit and he fills 406 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 3: a void that they lacked once Kelsey retires, so you 407 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 3: know that this team has hit him in Brandon Graham, 408 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 3: who's nominated for the Man of the Year. I forget 409 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 3: his injury off the oh he tears his shoulder is out, 410 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 3: so he's just gone, and having Saquon around there is 411 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 3: a really, really big deal. I mean, think about the 412 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 3: last game of the year, he has a chance to 413 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 3: break the record and we can say it doesn't mean anything. 414 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 3: It doesn't mean anything to me. I think they had 415 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 3: already won, but that would have been something. I think 416 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 3: Saquan be like, hey man, this has been my cole 417 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 3: career has been a little underachieving, given that I played 418 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 3: with the mess I want. Didn't say a people didn't 419 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 3: say a word. It's like, yeah, whatever I need to do. 420 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 3: And he remember earlier in the season when they wanted 421 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 3: him to like, hey, you want to break the record 422 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 3: against the Giants. He's like, now, let the other guys 423 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 3: run it. And that's in this sport with so much 424 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 3: going on. I don't think he gets enough credit for 425 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 3: the guy. We know how great of a player is 426 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 3: And I thought, Brady, you know one thing with to 427 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 3: be a great running back, you don't need elite, top 428 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 3: end speed. It's not a him and Derrick Henry. You know, 429 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 3: he compared him to a It's like if you could 430 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 3: pitch and hit, because I can live with twenty yard 431 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 3: runs all day long, but at any moment him and 432 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 3: Henry could go seventy eighty yarts. 433 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think there is something about Philadelphia. They do 434 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 2: things that dysfunctional organizations do and it works for them, 435 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 2: I think. And it may be just the city of Philadelphia. 436 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 2: It's such a glue city. You know. Washington has the 437 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 2: political power, LA's got the famous people, New York's got 438 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 2: the money. Boston's got a lot of history, Dallas has 439 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 2: a lot of flair. 440 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 3: You know. 441 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 2: Philadelphia has kind of a small town feel for a 442 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 2: big city. Like everybody in that city, anybody in my life. 443 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 2: I've been doing this for a long time. It is 444 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 2: amazing how often I'm in an airport, on a ski slope, 445 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 2: at a restaurant anywhere that I live, and they're Eagle 446 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: fans and Phillies fans. They're just something about the loyalty 447 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: they've been, you know, they they've had so much that's 448 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 2: recently the Eagle has been so good now for a 449 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 2: stretch and the Phillies are very good. The Sixers are 450 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 2: still disappointing, but their sports teams are pretty damn good. 451 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 2: They went long stretches of just being like Chicago is 452 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 2: now or they just got beat up. There's something about Philadelphia, 453 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 2: the city like there's it's almost like the fans keep 454 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 2: you in line. You know, embiid you know fans. Fans 455 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 2: aren't gonna mess with that bullshit, Like if you don't play, 456 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,239 Speaker 2: fans can turn on you very quickly. And I don't know, 457 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 2: I just I just look at Philadelphia stars. I can 458 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 2: go back to Mike Schmidt, Ron Jaworski. It just there's 459 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 2: a toughness and a unique kind of I don't know 460 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 2: how to describe it. When I when I watched this 461 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 2: Philadelphia team, it feels like a Philadelphia team. Young stars, 462 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: stars in their prime, older stars, and they all just gel. 463 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: They all kind of get along. And I I didn't 464 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: think Jalen played well today. I'm not sure he's a 465 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 2: hu undred percent healthy, but I thought that game. Honestly, 466 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 2: if you could bet a football game after one series, 467 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 2: I was like, Yep, Philadelphia, I could. Green Bay was 468 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 2: out of their element. They look rattled. I'm like, oh, 469 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 2: this is over. This game I feel I felt five 470 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 2: out ten. I felt that with Baltimore and Pittsburgh, it's like, Okay, 471 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 2: this is done. I can tell you right now Pittsburgh's 472 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: not ready to play. It's time to look at this 473 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 2: weekend's tastiest matchup. In this week's Sunday Night food Ball, 474 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: brought to you by Uber Eats. Okay, let's pivot to 475 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 2: Buffalo thirty one Denver seven. I don't think this surprised anybody. 476 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 2: A lot of the Sharps looked at some Sean Payton 477 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 2: stats historically, but I think we've both said this. Denver 478 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 2: lost by twenty four. I'd still rather be the Broncos 479 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 2: than the Pittsburgh Steelers. I've got a great offensive coach 480 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 2: and a quarterback who's going to be a hell of 481 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: a player. We'll get to Pittsburgh later. But I kind 482 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 2: of looked at this Denver lost and I thought, listen, man, 483 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 2: this was not a winnable game. This Buffalo team. Kencaid's 484 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: now been added. I think James Cook is terrific. Josh 485 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 2: Allen right now is playing as well as he's ever 486 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 2: played in his life. He's getting very, very good protection. 487 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 2: I don't see a lot of flaws with Buffalo. 488 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 3: Do you No. I mean, I think when the schedule 489 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 3: came out, when we found out who was playing who, 490 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 3: we were destined to get Buffalo hole hosting Baltimore, and 491 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 3: it played out there pretty seamlessly. I think Buffalo I 492 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 3: think they have more pressure on him in this upcoming 493 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 3: game than Baltimore given how well their offense James Cook 494 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 3: has changed their offense. I mean, early on in Josh's career, 495 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: they did not have a runner like that, and he. 496 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 2: Just smells the end zone. He feels it. 497 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 3: How about Khalil Shakir, I mean that stat they said 498 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 3: today that no one has more yards after contact beside 499 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase than him. I mean, he has been fantastic. 500 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 3: Keyan Coleman that the Florida State rookie has really come 501 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 3: on as the season and there is a calmness to 502 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: Josh's game. I think both Josh and Lamar I think, 503 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 3: you know, for guys that are runners and make these 504 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 3: just spectacular, all time great plays are so under control. 505 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,199 Speaker 3: It's always what Patrick has had and he had it earlier. 506 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,719 Speaker 3: In those two guys, it always felt like Mahomes from 507 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 3: day one, was just completely under control. Even when chaotic situations. 508 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 3: You watch those two guys, it's like, even when chaos happens, 509 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: it's like, I don't feel like they're freaking out as 510 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 3: they're scrambling around to make a play. I mean they are. 511 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 3: They are in the peak of their powers right now. 512 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 3: And like, how does a rookie quarterback And I'm sure 513 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 3: you saw the stat about Sean Payton's record against bald coaches, 514 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: it was it John Paidon. I just think a rookie 515 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 3: quarterback on the road, they were gonna need a historic 516 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 3: defensive performance. And playing at Buffalo, I mean that place, 517 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 3: do you know? It kind of hit me today. And 518 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 3: there's been a lot of great games at Lambeau as well. 519 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 3: The one thing cool about the NFL is some of 520 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 3: these smaller cities. For as big as it's, how fun 521 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 3: does a home game at Buffalo feel in the playoffs? 522 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 3: The buzz in that place? I mean, I would imagine 523 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 3: we don't have that. We're recording this even before the 524 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 3: Sunday night game that's probably going to be a night 525 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 3: game next week. That place is going to be ripping 526 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 3: and rocking and cold, and the snow and the fans. 527 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 2: Well, one of the of the of the many reasons 528 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: football is king and there's about eight In the NBA, 529 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 2: there are clearly glamour cities where the stars want to play. 530 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,719 Speaker 2: In Major League Baseball, there's about six teams that can 531 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: win a World Series based on payroll. Think about the 532 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 2: dominant teams in the NFL right now, Buffalo, Kansas City, Baltimore, 533 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 2: Green Bay. Those are four of the winningest teams. The 534 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 2: New York teams are in the toilet. Washington was for 535 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 2: ten to fifteen years, and the one big market team 536 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: is Philadelphia and they've just been They're exceedingly well run, 537 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 2: and I think that's just part of the appeal. I 538 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 2: gotta tell you, I am such a big fan of 539 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 2: Kansas City and Baltimore. I can't lose this year. I 540 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: would love to see Lamar make a super I would 541 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: love to see Josh Allen make it. I mean, the 542 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 2: AFC division winners and the AFC Final four is the 543 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 2: same as last season, and I don't think it's gonna change. 544 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 2: I think Kansas City, Baltimore, and Buffalo are going and 545 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 2: I should say I think Houston's gonna mostly win their division. C. J. 546 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 2: Stroud was down this year, the O line wasn't as good. 547 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 2: I think the AFC. I don't think there's gonna be 548 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 2: a lot of change. It's gonna look like college football. 549 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 2: You're gonna see about four names, five names every year. 550 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 3: I know, you know, listen, I mean Beach and in Andy. 551 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 3: Their resume speaks for herself. Same with Baltimore. I do 552 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 3: think Buffalo's shorter. I do think we have to throw 553 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 3: them in the mix of just how well run they are. 554 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 3: Obviously quarterback led operation, but they transitioned. Everyone thought they 555 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 3: were cutting a bunch of guys. A lot of people 556 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 3: picked the Jets to win the division. They had a 557 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 3: hat and teacher game like basically in Thanksgiving, and they 558 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 3: have become the patriots now of that division five straight times. 559 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 3: They are I mean a huge part of this upcoming 560 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 3: game is they are the two seed. I mean, these 561 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 3: home games in the playoffs. We just saw the Chargers 562 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 3: go on the road and get smacked. It really really matters. 563 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 3: And obviously Baltimore had kind of a weird regular season 564 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 3: with some losses. Buffalo handled business and they're hosting this 565 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 3: game for a reason. And I think, you know, the 566 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 3: I don't know if much separates them and Baltimore at 567 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 3: least they have been doing it, not as long, but 568 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 3: in terms of like they're the two elite second tier 569 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 3: teams in the AFC. They just haven't been able to 570 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 3: beat Mahomes, but they're kicking everyone else's ass. 571 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty eight unanswered points at one point, I mean, 572 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 2: it was just and it was Alan to Kincaid, Alan 573 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 2: to Curtis Samuel, Alan to a running back in the 574 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,719 Speaker 2: end zone. I mean, Josh has just become an unbelievable player. 575 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:49,239 Speaker 3: You know. 576 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 2: I feel like Buffalo's a little Phil Mickelson and Tigers 577 00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 2: Prime where sometimes it just and I look at it 578 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 2: and I think to myself, God, Now I do think 579 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 2: Buffalo is gonna beat Baltimore. I do I think at 580 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 2: home they're gonna beat them. I don't know if Kansas City, 581 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 2: Kansas City will take care of business. I mean, I 582 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 2: Kansas City is gonna beat Houston. I may be a sucker. 583 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 2: I think this is the year for Buffalo to get 584 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl. I think this is the best 585 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 2: version there's there's just if they can stay healthy. There's 586 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 2: nothing I don't like about them. There's nothing I can't 587 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: find a flaw with the team the game. Their defense 588 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 2: is not great that game against the Rams when Stafford 589 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 2: went out and down the field. They're not a great 590 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 2: defensive team. But Kansas City is not a great offensive team. 591 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 2: And and now I do I mean, do you like 592 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 2: Buffalo against Baltimore? 593 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 3: I would say, no team down the stretch beside the 594 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 3: Chiefs who flipped a switch is playing better than Baltimore. 595 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 3: I mean there are. Last year they were the number 596 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 3: one overall seat and had the best defense since like 597 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 3: the Pete Carroll peak days, this offense is dramatically better 598 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 3: than last year because Lamar's better. They added Derrick Henry, 599 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 3: who somehow does not age. I mean, he's in the 600 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 3: peak of his powers running for a hundred and ninetyees. 601 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 2: What's funny is he wasn't great his first two years 602 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 2: in the league, and now he got better as an 603 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: old running back, which is is the opposite of what 604 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 2: happens for star running backs. 605 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 3: It's crazy. Mark Andrews is now back. Looks fantastic. Yeah. Bateman, 606 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 3: who they've kind of ridden out over the course of 607 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 3: his career, has turned into a really good player. If 608 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 3: say Flowers comes back, I do think guy for guy. 609 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 3: If we just say the quarterbacks cancel each other out. 610 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 3: I think Baltimore is better than Buffalo, but home field, 611 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 3: there's gonna be a lot of Listen, this is one 612 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,719 Speaker 3: of the best games of the year. I mean, it 613 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 3: doesn't get any better than this, And I would lean 614 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 3: slight lean Baltimore. But I'm rooting for one of these 615 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 3: two teams unless Andy Viach. I know all these guys. 616 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 3: I do think it would be cool. Part of philis 617 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 3: Phil never took down Tiger in a big moment. You know, 618 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 3: it's Kansas City just gonna kick the crap out of 619 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 3: Houston and then beat this team and then just be 620 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 3: back in the Super Bowl and then everyone's gonna pick 621 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 3: them and they're gonna win another super Bowl. Football shouldn't 622 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 3: be that easy. You know. It wasn't even for New England, right. 623 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 3: It never happens three three peat. Usually most of the 624 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 3: time you get bounced. I actually think Houston the one 625 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 3: thing you saw Houston Demiko. If you did a coach 626 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 3: draft from scratch, he'd go in the top ten. He 627 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 3: is an elite defensive mind. He's an elite leader. 628 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: C J. 629 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 3: Stroud finally got his twenty twenty three mojo back you. 630 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 2: Know, it's funny CJ. At home. I think he's now 631 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 2: like thirteen and five or twelve and five and one 632 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 2: hundred passerwaight, he actually is a much different quarterback at home. 633 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any question for sure. 634 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 3: Nico Collins is one of the most talented young players 635 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,479 Speaker 3: in the league. They have two, they have one pass rusher. 636 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 3: They just gave a two year contract for fifty million 637 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 3: dollars and they guaranteed every penny and Danelle Hunter, who 638 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 3: was who was kind of working Joe Alt yesterday at 639 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 3: moments tough first matchup on Anderson is one of the 640 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 3: best players to ever played for Safe and got drafted 641 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 3: third overall. I mean they got some high, high end 642 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 3: guys and a real coach. Now we just saw the map. 643 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 3: One advantage for Andy is they literally just played him, 644 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 3: so they had already game planned for him three weeks ago. 645 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 3: They only have to watch these last couple of games. 646 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 3: I've been around Andy Reid, he's been in the office 647 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 3: these last two days. They're already on it. I mean, 648 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 3: this is it's a tough spot for Houston, but you 649 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 3: watch them, you go got it. They got If CJ 650 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 3: is gonna play like that they have more talent or 651 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 3: every bit. The talent is the Chargers, and they're high 652 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 3: end players are so high you think they could give 653 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 3: a game. Remember last year against Baltimore for a half, 654 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 3: they gave him a game. Then they ran out of juice. 655 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 3: I would imagine I haven't seen the line. Probably a 656 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 3: seven point spread for the Chiefs. I would guess someone. 657 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's a steps league. I 658 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 2: think I went into this season saying about green Bay 659 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 2: they're too young, they're a year away. That bears itself 660 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: out watching today, and I think Houston the same thing. 661 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 2: I still think Houston needs another draft. I think they're 662 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 2: an inconsistent football team because they're not a team that 663 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 2: if they suffer injuries in certain spots. Their old line 664 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 2: wasn't as good this year good, so they're not a 665 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 2: super Bowl. I think green Bay and Houston are good 666 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 2: enough to win a playoff game. They're not good enough 667 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 2: to win two. Certainly not good enough to get to 668 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 2: a super Bowl. But you know there's there's CG. 669 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 3: CJ is a better play. I would I would take 670 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 3: CG over Love. 671 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 2: I would too at this point.

Let's let's go into 677 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 2: the Mike Tomlin Pittsburgh stuff. So I thought it was interesting. 678 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 2: This may have been the moment dan Orlowsky at ESPN 679 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: as the Steelers just look unprepared and no juice. I mean, 680 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 2: the one thing about Tomlin, he was always known as 681 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 2: an elite motivator, the best underdog coach in the NFL 682 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 2: statistically for a decade, they had no juice. None. It 683 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 2: was almost as if they weren't concentrating. Dan Orlofsky had 684 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 2: a breakdown of some tape in the first half from 685 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 2: the offensive line. They it was brutal, it was embarrassing, 686 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 2: you like guards pulling into each other, and the O 687 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 2: line has been This has been my criticism for a 688 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 2: lot of defensive coaches. Mike Tomlin, Pete Carroll, you know 689 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 2: McVeigh and Andy Reid can fix an offensive line and 690 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: an off season, and he's done it multiple times. These 691 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 2: defensive coaches really struggle with it. And I watched this 692 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 2: offensive line. It's they've drafted it. They've got some good talent. 693 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 2: They couldn't create a run game, but it was it 694 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 2: was Baltimore going into a game without Zay Flowers and 695 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 2: having a fifteen straight runs and still doing it. And 696 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: I think Pittsburgh's got very conservative owners. They're not big spenders. 697 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 2: That's always been the reputation. As you are an eagle scout, 698 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,359 Speaker 2: Steelers always had a reputation they didn't take as many 699 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 2: big swing as it was draft and develop. I think 700 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 2: they need innovation. I would say Ben Johnson feels like 701 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 2: a good fit here. Do you think they have the 702 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: kahonas to let go of Mike Tomlin? 703 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,760 Speaker 3: Well, I don't. And you and I have been talking 704 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 3: this about for a year. We said it last year 705 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 3: and it doesn't even feel like they entertained it. So 706 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 3: I guess another year they should entertain it. I don't 707 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 3: expect them to, but eventually you're going to get the 708 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 3: line of diminishing returns where his value is going to 709 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 3: start to go down. Yeah, right and right now because 710 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 3: of think of the desperate team from the Jets to 711 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,720 Speaker 3: the Jags to the Bears, his value is pretty high, 712 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 3: Like you could trade him for valuable draft picks. You're 713 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 3: a couple of years away from that not being the case. Like, 714 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 3: you can't just keep going about this because think about 715 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 3: this Mike Tomlin, like you said, he's a defensive guy 716 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 3: and known as just one of the best leaders in 717 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 3: the NFL. So even if we removed but if you're 718 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 3: Tomlin's defense attorney, like they can't fix the quarterback, Okay, 719 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,399 Speaker 3: I will remove the offense. Let's just talk defense and effort. Well, 720 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 3: you're coming out against your bitter rivalry and Herbertreet now 721 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 3: are questioning have they quit on Mike Tomlin in. 722 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 2: The first half? 723 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 3: Have they quit? So his whole thing was like effort 724 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,959 Speaker 3: and leading the boys and the troops into battle. Well 725 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 3: that clearly went away, and their defense has been atrocious 726 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 3: down the stretch. I mean, guys, wide open. It felt 727 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 3: like Lamar Jackson. It was like a preseason practice. I mean, 728 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 3: it's like, what are we doing? You could have called 729 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 3: the game at halftime, he really could, and they went 730 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 3: with Russell Wilson. Anytime that you are celebrating that our 731 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 3: quarterback room only cost us a couple million dollars, it's 732 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: probably and you got rid of the guy that you 733 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 3: just drafted twentieth. Overall, I mean we probably saw this coming. 734 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 3: I mean as it got cold, Colin Russell really came 735 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 3: back to earth. Now, he hit a couple of big 736 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 3: plays in the second half, but the game was already out. 737 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 2: Of that's more Pickens than russ Why. 738 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 3: Wouldn't you if you're Ben Johnson, And clearly he's still 739 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 3: apprehensive about Like you know, he's very worried about taking 740 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 3: a job that's gonna ruin his career. Don't blame him 741 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 3: because he sees all these other guys take jobs and 742 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 3: just derails their career. He's got a great thing going on. 743 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:21,759 Speaker 3: I think he makes like five six million dollars in 744 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 3: Detroit with an offense full of Pro bowlers. Well, you 745 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,959 Speaker 3: can trade Mike Tomlin if you're Pittsburgh. You can take 746 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 3: a young coordinator, a young guy like they did with 747 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,880 Speaker 3: Mike Tomlin and put him in a position to succeed, 748 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 3: and then it just gives you some life. The other 749 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 3: problem is maybe bottoming out wouldn't be the worst thing ever. 750 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 3: The forty nine ers this year sucked. They kind of 751 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 3: need some high draft picks. Why because their roster's really expensive. 752 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 3: It's actually a healthy thing. The way it played out 753 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 3: for him. If they get it right, winning nine to 754 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 3: ten games every year and just getting curb stomped in 755 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 3: the first round is that they're making no progress. You know, 756 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 3: it's impossible to get a quarterback. It's hard. You gotta hope, 757 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 3: cross your fingers, hope you can get a TJ. Watt 758 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 3: and pick twenty two. That happens once every five years. 759 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 3: So your draft is difficult, and you're just seeing a 760 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 3: team that they take a lot of flyers for character 761 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 3: and eventually like Antonio Brown, yeah, okay, you get a 762 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 3: Hall of Famer, and then you get George Pickens, who 763 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 3: it's like, yeah that guy. 764 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 2: Team Well, I couldn't tell you the last time Chase Claypool, 765 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 2: I couldn't tell you the last time they had a 766 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,919 Speaker 2: receiver room without an attitude, Deontae Johnson. It's just it's 767 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 2: what they do. And it's funny because Tomlin doesn't get 768 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 2: those guys on defense, but it's almost as if, hey, 769 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 2: I'll let the offensive guys worry about the drama. Defensively, 770 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: he doesn't get a lot of attitude, but the dape 771 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 2: So it's again it's the lack of urgency at quarterback, 772 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:48,240 Speaker 2: the lack of development offensive line. All that stuff is obvious, 773 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,479 Speaker 2: but when you see the lack of effort, it's like, Mike, 774 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 2: that's kind of your hallmark. That would be like, that 775 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: would be like Kyle Shanahan can't run the ball. It's like, well, dude, 776 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 2: that's kind of that's kind of who you are. You know, 777 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 2: if the run stops in San Francisco, then you got 778 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 2: real questions. I think it's time to make a move. 779 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 3: I listen, I would trade him one hundred and if 780 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 3: I was Mike. I understand. I've said this over and over. 781 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 3: Being the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, if you're 782 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,919 Speaker 3: going to be a coach, is awesome. Like, I don't 783 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 3: blame him for not wanting to leave that post. But 784 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 3: we saw specifically with Andy Reid, he got a fresh 785 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 3: lease on life and it changed the course of his career. 786 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 3: Because it invigorates you, it's lights a fire under you. 787 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 3: It kind of puts the chip back on your shoulder. 788 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw Jimmy Johnson throw out 789 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 3: a trade for Mike McCarthy, a Pittsburgh guy. To me, 790 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,760 Speaker 3: if I'm the Pittsburgh Steelers. I just let Jerry resign, 791 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 3: Mike the Ben Johnson thing take a swing and listen. 792 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 3: It might not work out, but the loyalty commendable. But 793 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 3: you get to a point where it's like the loyalty 794 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 3: thing feels like it's run out. This is not where 795 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 3: you're You're now kind of an embarrassment. Tomins whole thing 796 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 3: is the standard is the standard. So the standard is 797 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 3: this is back to back years double did you blowouts 798 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 3: by the second tier of the AFC listen to this than. 799 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:08,760 Speaker 2: You If cam Ward or Shaduere Sanders lands in Cleveland, Burrow, 800 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson, Shaduur Sanders, you will have the fourth best 801 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 2: quarterback in the division. That is just that's a that's 802 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: a death sentence for a coach. You're just you're I 803 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 2: mean in Sefanski. With a good college quarterback, a lot 804 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:25,319 Speaker 2: of energy, youthful, healthy, you'll keep your eye on you know. 805 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,959 Speaker 2: We just saw what bo Nix did with an offensive coach. 806 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 2: We saw what Sam Darnold did with Kevin O'Connell. I 807 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 2: just I think if you just look down the road, 808 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 2: this is not getting better. There is no great quarterback 809 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 2: on the horizon for Pittsburgh. 810 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 3: Well, if Joe Burrow's healthy, how often are they going 811 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 3: to go nine to eight? So if you played this 812 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 3: season over again, the Steelers are not in are not 813 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 3: the right the like the Bengals are in their spot right. 814 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 3: We saw the last game of the season when they 815 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 3: played it, it was nineteen to seven going into the fourth quarter. Now, 816 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 3: the thing with Cleveland, if we just let's just assume 817 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 3: cam Ward goes one. Yeah, I cannot imagine prime Time 818 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 3: allows his son to go to Cleveland. I can't. He's 819 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 3: already kind of hinted that, you know, he would go, 820 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 3: you know, Archie Manning free like I think he would 821 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 3: would draw a line in the stands. Though, with Deshaun's 822 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 3: career looking over, Shador would start immediately on a team 823 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 3: that has a bunch of talent. But I have a 824 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 3: hard time seeing Primetime allowing that one to have. 825 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 2: And now for our next segment, Whiskey Business brought to 826 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 2: you by Green River Whiskey, the official whiskey of the 827 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 2: Colin Coward Podcast. It's good stuff. When you want to 828 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:35,399 Speaker 2: enjoy life, simple pleasures, reach for Green River Whiskey. All right, 829 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 2: let's pivot to something that we saw coming. I talked 830 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 2: about it on my show Thursday and Friday. I thought 831 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 2: the Patriots was the best job because of the stability 832 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 2: at ownership and Drake May even Joe Milton is a backup. 833 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 2: The quarterback room is set, they're young, they're inexpensive. You 834 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 2: got a good owner here. I was thinking about this, 835 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 2: John about once every two or three years, somebody gets 836 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 2: a job and you know it's going to work. Andy 837 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 2: Reid the Kansas City, Jim hardbought of the Chargers. Sean 838 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 2: Payton to Denver, Dan Quinn to a lesser degree to 839 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 2: Washington with Cliff Kingsbury, Mike Frable to New England. He's 840 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 2: gonna bring up his GM buddy from Tennessee. He's gonna 841 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 2: get his OC this one. And then also conversely, eber 842 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,879 Speaker 2: Fluse in Chicago, Dennis Allen to New Orleans. Some shit 843 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: doesn't sound like it's gonna work. The minute the inkstry, 844 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:28,800 Speaker 2: I think Vrabel is gonna get I think this team's 845 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 2: gonna get good really quickly. And I'm and I'm serious, 846 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 2: I think they'll I think there'll be an eight. When 847 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 2: I predicted that Denver this year was going to be 848 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 2: better than people think. I think Drake may with a 849 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 2: run game with Rabel, I think, I think this is 850 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 2: a great choice. I don't see it failing. 851 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 3: I would say this, he also gets to take over. 852 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 3: You know. It turns out Gerrod Mayo, while he was 853 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 3: a high level player and a team captain, was like 854 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 3: the Jim tom Sula of coaches. I mean, you read 855 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 3: some of these articles, it was pretty embarrassing what was 856 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 3: going on there. So you take over an operation that 857 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 3: is just desperate to be led. And one thought I 858 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,320 Speaker 3: had when I was doing the reaction videos and podcasts 859 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 3: last night, do you know who the big loser in 860 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 3: all this is? Like? The Bills are good and they're 861 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,720 Speaker 3: not going anyway anywhere, But how about Miami and the Jets? 862 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 3: I mean, Miami has major question marks with the coach 863 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 3: and the direction and just the accountability in that franchise. 864 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:24,880 Speaker 3: And I don't know if you've seen the list of 865 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:27,760 Speaker 3: the Jets interviews, They've interviewed seven hundred and seventy five people. 866 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 3: It just feels like every day there's a new GM 867 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 3: or coach, Like what is going on here? So those 868 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 3: two franchises, to me, with Rabel going there, got no 869 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 3: shot got no shot. The Bills. Listen, they're way better 870 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,280 Speaker 3: and they got Josh Allen. But I think the Miami 871 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 3: Dolphins and the Jets got to be like, this is 872 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 3: not an ideal situation for us. 873 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:51,800 Speaker 2: Think about this. The best coaching candidate last year Jim 874 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:56,240 Speaker 2: Hartbaugh went to the Chargers primarily for one reason, Justin Herbert. 875 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 2: And this year the best coaching candidate is Mike Rabel 876 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 2: primarily for one or two reasons. Takes that job justin 877 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 2: Herbert komp Drake May, big mobile, nice arm, smart kid, 878 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 2: doesn't you know, totally focused. I think Drake May actually 879 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 2: showed signs with a bad coaching staff and a pretty 880 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 2: weak receiving corps. Polk didn't do anything. The receiver from Washington. 881 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 2: I think he's got some kids developed more slowly. I 882 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:29,319 Speaker 2: don't know. I look at Vrabel in New England. It 883 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 2: feels very much hardbought Chargers, Peyton, Denver, dan Quinn, Washington. 884 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 2: I think Josh McDaniels may take that job. I think 885 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 2: it's gonna work. They just need another back, another receiver. 886 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,839 Speaker 2: They need juice on offense. But they have some nice 887 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 2: defensive pieces. 888 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 3: And I think clearly the crafts their relationship with him. 889 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 3: I mean, Belichick has battled disc always claimed that they 890 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 3: were sneaky, cheap more than it was him. Yeah at times. 891 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 3: And this is a guy with a huge person that 892 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 3: if he wants something, I do think they will acquiesce. 893 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 3: I'd forgotten about this, but he led the type. They 894 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:10,440 Speaker 3: were the number one overall seed the year. Remember Tannyhill 895 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 3: ended up throwing three or four picks in that game 896 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,279 Speaker 3: and the Bengals beat him. But you look back on 897 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 3: these Titans teams, You're like, how the hell did he 898 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 3: have them that competitive? With Ryan Tannehill, AJ Brown, Derrek Henry. 899 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,080 Speaker 3: Those two guys were good, but tanny Hill was never 900 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 3: better than what the fifteenth best quarterback in the NFL. Well, well, 901 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 3: and some solid defensive pieces, but it's not like they 902 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,360 Speaker 3: had Lawrence Taylor and Ed Reid on the squad. 903 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 2: And when they let AJ Brown go, Remember Mike Rabel 904 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 2: came to Yeah, he went to the podium and just 905 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:41,279 Speaker 2: said yeah. I mean he didn't even hide his displeasure. 906 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 2: I mean he just went to the podium and said, yeah, 907 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 2: this sucks. Were so's It's like he knew it. That 908 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 2: was the end of Mike Vrabel I've text him a 909 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 2: couple of times. I'm not going to get in too much, 910 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 2: but you know this is somebody that had options. It's 911 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 2: like Jim Harbaugh. Jim Harbaugh was going to find I mean, 912 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 2: Harbaugh said, yeah, I'll go up against Sean Payton, I'll 913 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:01,399 Speaker 2: go up against Andy Reid. 914 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 3: I don't care. 915 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 2: I need a quarterback in college you can win. I mean, 916 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,040 Speaker 2: look at our quarterbacks now, Will Howard at Ohio State, 917 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 2: quinn Ewers, Riley Leonard. College football is really about the roster, 918 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 2: it really is. You can have a b quarterback in 919 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 2: the NFL. 920 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:17,479 Speaker 3: You can't. 921 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 2: And I think Drake May is gonna pop. I think 922 00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 2: by the end of next year, mid to by Thanksgiving 923 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 2: and we're gonna look at Drake Man go. You know, 924 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 2: they found a fifteen year NFL quarterback. 925 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 3: I also think what makes Vrabel unique is why so 926 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 3: many of these Belichick guys have failed is all they 927 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,760 Speaker 3: know is Bill and they just copy everything he does. 928 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,880 Speaker 3: Vrabel took I think the best parts about Bill and 929 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 3: I saw Taylor Luwan go on a rant like Bill 930 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,280 Speaker 3: used to like question guys in a team meeting offensive 931 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 3: guys about defensive stuff or what's the guy at the 932 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 3: cafeteria's name. I mean, what's who's the guy on the 933 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 3: picture in the hallway. He would just have these and 934 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 3: it was Belichick's thing, and then every guy that the McDaniels, 935 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 3: the Patricia, the Florest, they all tried to copy it. 936 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 3: And it doesn't work. It doesn't feel authentic. And Vrabel 937 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 3: is able to integrate I think the best parts of 938 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:05,360 Speaker 3: the accountability, of the discipline and the detail, but also 939 00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 3: the personality of just a guy. You know, I played 940 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 3: in this league. I'm a tough guy. I can relate 941 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 3: to you as a human being. We could. I'm probably 942 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 3: not gonna have a beer with you, but you know, 943 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,760 Speaker 3: I'm just a guy. And I think those other guys 944 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 3: really struggle with that. And I think Rab will never coach. 945 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 3: You know, he's noticed about he just played for and 946 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 3: then he went off to coach for Urban and then 947 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 3: Bill O'Brien. So I think he's got a pretty unique 948 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 3: perspective there. And that's why I was so high on Dable, Right, 949 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 3: he had coached under Belichick, but then he went to Sabin, 950 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:34,880 Speaker 3: and he went to Sean mcdermoty. He saw this of 951 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,280 Speaker 3: other stuff, but clearly they haven't figured out the quarterback, 952 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 3: and that's just a huge advantage. I think that I 953 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,759 Speaker 3: think they knew this was the higher what a month ago? Like, yeah, 954 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 3: you know when when when the Patriots released eight paragraph 955 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 3: statement two minutes after the final game. It's pretty clear 956 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 3: that thing was written not on Saturday afternoon. 957 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 2: So listen, the games this weekend were pretty lousy, a 958 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 2: lot of blowouts, ugly games. So John and I are 959 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 2: going to spend about twenty minutes talking about something here. 960 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 2: And if you're just into football and nothing more, that's fine. 961 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 2: But John until recently lived in California his entire life, 962 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 2: and I've lived here now for close to a decade. 963 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 2: And you know, over the last four or five days, 964 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 2: I have watched an area of Los Angeles burn to 965 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 2: the ground to a large extent, an area I lived 966 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 2: right next to and have many friends in who have 967 00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 2: been displaced. My agents, my company has been a little displaced, 968 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 2: just people that mean the world to me. And so 969 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 2: the last couple of days have been brutal. And this 970 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 2: is not really going to be a political discussion. I 971 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,839 Speaker 2: said this yesterday. I voted for Rick Caruso. I would 972 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 2: do it again. I think he's the right person for 973 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 2: the right time, especially going forward. But what I watched 974 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 2: over the last four days now, I will say this, 975 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 2: eighty five mile an hour winds did not allow for 976 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,000 Speaker 2: choppers or planes for a day and a half to 977 00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 2: drop water. Combined with the fact it was a hurricane 978 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 2: and instead of rain it had fire, this was going 979 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 2: to cause immense damage, regardless who was mayor and some 980 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 2: political decisions. But it has been first, the media in 981 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 2: Los Angeles has been remarkable. The local TV stations CBSNBCABC, Fox, 982 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 2: the quality of the photo journalism, the reporting, the helicopter pilots. 983 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 2: It's been better than CNN. It's been better than network television. 984 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 2: So tip of the cap to Los Angeles media. It 985 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 2: has been astounding. People are up all night. You can 986 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:50,280 Speaker 2: turn it on two in the morning. 987 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: They're on. 988 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,280 Speaker 2: So I want to start with that. The local media 989 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 2: and Los Angeles has been better than the network coverage. 990 00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 2: It has been remarkable. It's been awe inspiring. Somebody who 991 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 2: was in local for you know, thirteen fourteen years. But 992 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,640 Speaker 2: I wanted to start with you, John, because listen, the 993 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 2: fire was devastating. This was not a fire with the 994 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 2: winds that was going to burn down six houses. It however, 995 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 2: exploded to a level and it's become very political. As 996 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:21,319 Speaker 2: somebody who has lived in California until recently for your 997 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 2: entire life and your family, what do you make of 998 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 2: the polity, the political nature of the argument, and sort 999 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:30,760 Speaker 2: of your thoughts on what you've watched. 1000 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I've spent thirty five of my forty 1001 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 3: years of life in California and mainly in north of 1002 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 3: the California, a little bit on the Central Coast. But 1003 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,840 Speaker 3: I would say this fires have been a big issue 1004 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 3: for us, you know, when I lived in the Bay Area, 1005 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 3: in Santa Rosa, in the nap Areas, and obviously Tahoe 1006 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 3: a couple of years ago. I do think there's an 1007 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:53,359 Speaker 3: element of in these states. You know, people say over politicized. 1008 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 3: I would say the ethos of San Francisco in LA 1009 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 3: is very political. Yeas driven that way, and when it 1010 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:03,919 Speaker 3: comes to regulation, over regulation in people that run these 1011 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 3: things that are faceless, Right, Gavin's got a face, he's 1012 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,399 Speaker 3: the governor, but these people, a lot of these people 1013 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 3: in these environmental boards, no one knows who any of 1014 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 3: these people are. And I do think the brush thing 1015 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,280 Speaker 3: and I saw it in Tahoe is these environmental groups 1016 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 3: refuse to let you clean up anything. Yes, I don't 1017 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 3: know when this began, but it's happened for a long time. 1018 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:26,400 Speaker 3: And these things we know, these fires and it's dry. 1019 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 3: I've never lived in La Obviously, Santa Ana wins because 1020 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 3: I was thinking about, like, this is about the time, 1021 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,319 Speaker 3: right when Kobe gott in the helicopter crash, And wasn't 1022 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 3: that the fog and the wind and you guys get 1023 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 3: this weather that it's just very difficult in those hills. 1024 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:40,440 Speaker 3: It's hard. 1025 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 2: It's crazy. I was gonna. I lived in Brentwood for 1026 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,560 Speaker 2: a while. The reason I didn't live deep into Palisades 1027 00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:50,280 Speaker 2: was access. I always thought if I had an accident 1028 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,200 Speaker 2: or there was a fire, nobody could get to me. 1029 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 2: You're up these small, windy canyon roads. And I always 1030 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 2: told Anna, I'm like, this is I age. I think 1031 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 2: about stuff, you know, well, getting into an accident, get 1032 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 2: having a heart attack, It's like who could get to me? 1033 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 3: And Lake Tahoe is a lot like that. And when 1034 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,440 Speaker 3: they have those fires a couple of years ago, everyone 1035 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:12,040 Speaker 3: was sitting ducks because you got one lane roads, it's 1036 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 3: windy roads. You can't go that fast. But to me, 1037 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 3: the element and listen, I come from generation of farmers 1038 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 3: that deal with these environmental groups for different things. They're very, 1039 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,400 Speaker 3: very tough to deal with. And I do think I 1040 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 3: can't speak to like, you know, the winds in northern 1041 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 3: California are nowhere near eighty. I've never been a hardmunt 1042 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,919 Speaker 3: our wins either. I do know that these brushes, it's 1043 00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 3: just like a sitting fire zone that it is dry. 1044 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 3: So and I just saw Gavin hit an executive order 1045 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 3: we got to start cleaning the brushes. People have been 1046 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 3: saying this for a long time. Yeah, And I can't 1047 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,560 Speaker 3: speak to the hydrations. Clearly they were empty. And we 1048 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 3: got Maria, one of our best friends as a San 1049 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 3: Francisco fireman. He's down there and he's been there now 1050 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 3: for a week and it'll be there for another two weeks. 1051 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 3: He's sending us videos. I mean that video of the 1052 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:04,240 Speaker 3: stretch of street where the cars that uh yeah, basically 1053 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 3: the tractor is moving the cars out. He drove it's 1054 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 3: it's it's like something you would see in a movie. 1055 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 3: When he sent the video to I mean, it's crazy. 1056 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 3: Obviously these people they were deadlocked and just got out 1057 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 3: of their car and the police told him start running. 1058 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 3: I mean, listen, that's true. 1059 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 2: Trump said it two years ago. He talked about that 1060 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 2: brush issue two years ago. 1061 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:24,480 Speaker 3: Listen. 1062 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 2: I have always been moderate left leaning, but there is 1063 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 2: no question the kind of left leaning das in Seattle, Portland, 1064 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 2: San Francisco, Los Angeles. A lot of these people are 1065 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 2: getting voted out. They're just they don't you don't have 1066 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,440 Speaker 2: to change laws when you don't adhere to laws. 1067 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,839 Speaker 3: California, California turned on them right Prop thirty six seventy 1068 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,439 Speaker 3: almost seventy five percent of people voted against it when 1069 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 3: Gavin was the opposite. So it's clear that people in 1070 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 3: California are tired of some of this. I grew up 1071 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,480 Speaker 3: in Davis, California, which is like Berkeley Light. Oh, I know, 1072 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,840 Speaker 3: it's gotten much more liberal. I would say since I 1073 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 3: left twenty years ago, when I was probably in junior 1074 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,280 Speaker 3: higher and high school. We built an overpass to connect 1075 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 3: part of Davis's over Highway eighty and they couldn't build 1076 00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 3: it until there were toads, And to keep the toads alive, 1077 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 3: they had to build them a toad tunnel, which I mean, 1078 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,360 Speaker 3: this is the late nineties, at the time, it costs 1079 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 3: like one hundred thousand dollars, which was a lot of money. 1080 00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 3: And I had friends in construction whenever they tried to 1081 00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:26,920 Speaker 3: build something, they'd find the burrowing owls. And you're constantly 1082 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:30,320 Speaker 3: battling this stuff in California that you're just not battling 1083 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:32,840 Speaker 3: in these other and they and when anything goes wrong, 1084 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 3: they're never anywhere to be seen. It's like, if something 1085 00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,240 Speaker 3: goes wrong on our podcast. From my podcast, it's pretty 1086 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,879 Speaker 3: clear it's one of three people that screwed something up. 1087 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 3: Everyone in the in the business world is responsible. In 1088 00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:49,360 Speaker 3: a company, it's pretty clear who. But in the government 1089 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,279 Speaker 3: in California specifically, there were all these faceless people and 1090 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 3: I loved it. I come from generations of people that 1091 00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 3: lived there, and my family still lives there. And I 1092 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 3: left because I was like, this is my business where 1093 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 3: I wanted to raise my children. I'm like, I don't 1094 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 3: vibe with all this stuff. And it's no and you 1095 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,799 Speaker 3: see these people like do you think And I don't know. 1096 00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 3: I haven't spent time down there, but a lot of 1097 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 3: people don't believe that they're gonna be able to rebuild 1098 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 3: on the P eight because of the groups. They won't 1099 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 3: allow it to happen. It's cores. 1100 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 2: Here's the other thing. Who wants to rebuild in an 1101 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:26,640 Speaker 2: area where every house is being rebuilt. I mean, you're 1102 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 2: going to have four hundred houses connected. I don't want 1103 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 2: to raise my kids around construction sites. It's dangerous. Tractors, 1104 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 2: you know, all these gigantic utility vehicles like listen, I 1105 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 2: and it it's my wife doesn't like. My wife's not 1106 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 2: a huge fan of Los Angeles. So I think I've 1107 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 2: talked to you about this. I don't know if the 1108 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 2: audience knows this is I am moving some operations to Chicago. 1109 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 2: We purchased a house in Chicago, and I love Chicago. 1110 00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 2: First of all, I don't dislike LA but I you know, 1111 00:57:56,760 --> 00:57:59,200 Speaker 2: and and I had talked about this. I remember seeing 1112 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 2: a story about two years ago in the La Times 1113 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:04,400 Speaker 2: where they'd spent twenty four billion dollars on the homeless 1114 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 2: problem and it got worse. And I remember when I 1115 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 2: lived up near Palisades and my wife had a couple 1116 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 2: instances where an aggressive person, you know, at a coffee 1117 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,840 Speaker 2: place or a pharmacy like, approached her and she was 1118 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 2: just like, I'm not paying this for a house in 1119 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 2: this zip code and dealing with this shit. And it's like, 1120 00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 2: you know, when my my sister, or my wife, or 1121 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 2: the women in my life, my daughter feel less safe, 1122 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:34,440 Speaker 2: and so you know, it's I don't like people politicizing 1123 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 2: eighty mile an hour wins, but I think the points 1124 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:41,680 Speaker 2: you make are points I hear from all my friends, 1125 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 2: and I think. 1126 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 3: Because we know this is coming at this point now, 1127 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 3: it's been happening for a long period of time, so 1128 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 3: to have some proactive measures. There are going to be 1129 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 3: times when something is going one hundred miles an hour. 1130 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 3: If something does life, there is no stopping that. I 1131 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 3: have every firefighter in the world, there is no slowing 1132 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 3: that down. But there is ways to lessen the ability 1133 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:05,960 Speaker 3: for that to get going right. And I do think 1134 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,520 Speaker 3: the brush thing. And again, anything Donald says, like the 1135 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 3: comment about the fish, everyone's like, oh, he's crazy. This 1136 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,040 Speaker 3: is stuff people in California, especially in the business world, 1137 00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,880 Speaker 3: constantly make fun of about we got to take care 1138 00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 3: of this. And I'm pro animals, but it is it 1139 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 3: is over the top again with faceless people and faceless 1140 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,200 Speaker 3: groups that when it does come out, I say, oh, 1141 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:30,680 Speaker 3: the average salary in this group is four hundred and 1142 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 3: seventy five thousand dollars, and that's it's just become to me. 1143 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 3: And part of the reason I liked Arizona is there 1144 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:40,160 Speaker 3: was a wild, wild West and up and coming vibe 1145 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,680 Speaker 3: to it in California. You know, my grandparents moved there 1146 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 3: in the forties or late forties after World War Two, 1147 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,040 Speaker 3: and for a long period of time when it really 1148 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,919 Speaker 3: took off, it had that vibe from Hollywood to the 1149 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 3: Central Valley, to farming to San Francisco with Silicon Valley. 1150 00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:56,840 Speaker 3: And I would say over these last ten to fifteen years, 1151 00:59:56,920 --> 01:00:01,440 Speaker 3: the overregulation of everything and just it's got I mean, 1152 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 3: it's taken on a life of its own. And I 1153 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 3: think this la thing has impacted a lot of people 1154 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 3: that have been very, very loyal Democrats that you see 1155 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,920 Speaker 3: are really taken back by no one cares about me, 1156 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 3: No one gives a shit. And I'm paying I'm paying 1157 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 3: over fifty percent, so the government is the majority shareholder 1158 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 3: in my own income and they don't even care. It's crazy. 1159 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I listen, I hear this. The two people 1160 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 2: that I vacation with regularly are moderate to leaning right, 1161 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 2: really really good people, philanthropic, great dads, great husbands, just 1162 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 2: really good dudes. And they're in my age, so my 1163 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 2: wife and I travel with them, and believe me, I 1164 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 2: hear this constantly about the regulations and how difficult it is. 1165 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, some of the stuff infuriates 1166 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 2: me because now anybody can say anything but Trump winning 1167 01:00:55,880 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 2: a second term and people the first time there was 1168 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 2: a lot of outrage, there wasn't a lot of outrage 1169 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 2: this time. I think there's a lot of Democrats who 1170 01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:13,720 Speaker 2: were very quietly accepting the fact that their party has 1171 01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 2: lost its way. And maybe you find Trump crass, maybe 1172 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:23,040 Speaker 2: even repugnant, but he's kind of a bottom line economy, 1173 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 2: border crime guy, and I think that's really appealing to people, 1174 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 2: especially when they're in crisis COVID wildfires. People want answers, 1175 01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 2: and they're not really interested in being you know, they're 1176 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:43,680 Speaker 2: not really interested in bureaucratic answers and safe answers. They 1177 01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 2: want definitive, hard, uncomfortable questions and answers. And I think 1178 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 2: that's what Trump provides. And I was really taken back 1179 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 2: by when he won the election. There was a resignation 1180 01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 2: by the left. You know what, we ran a poor 1181 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 2: campaign and he connects with more people. And I think 1182 01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:11,000 Speaker 2: listening and watching what's being said during this it is 1183 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 2: I sit here and I look at America and I think, 1184 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 2: you know, I think you and I both were very 1185 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 2: lucky people. But there's also a reason in this country 1186 01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 2: that football is so damn popular. Players play hurt, they 1187 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 2: play in crappy weather, there's no load management, they don't 1188 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 2: complain about games, they bust their ass, They treat the 1189 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 2: fans with respect. I think there was a there was 1190 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,400 Speaker 2: a in that COVID space. There was a time in 1191 01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 2: this country where people felt like they couldn't they had 1192 01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:48,080 Speaker 2: to walk on eggshells on social media, at parties, in 1193 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,360 Speaker 2: public with what they said. And I think people in 1194 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 2: this country are over it. 1195 01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I would be one of those people. 1196 01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 3: It's why California, everything that happened to the Bay Area 1197 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,000 Speaker 3: during COVID, me and them did not see eye eye. 1198 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 3: And I was coming to Arizona a lot. I'm talking 1199 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 3: in like May of twenty twenty, and it was completely 1200 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:10,960 Speaker 3: normal relative to twenty twenty, and I kept thinking, we're 1201 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,080 Speaker 3: all breathing the same air. What is going on here? 1202 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:16,560 Speaker 3: And like you said about the costs of living I 1203 01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:19,240 Speaker 3: had a good buddy a couple of years ago, by 1204 01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:22,800 Speaker 3: I mean just a complete tear down shithole in a 1205 01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 3: really nice area in the East Bay for well over 1206 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 3: three million dollars, and I was like, I'm not I 1207 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:32,720 Speaker 3: don't even this is crazy, And I just moved my 1208 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,520 Speaker 3: life and I came to a place that I've seen 1209 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:37,560 Speaker 3: is just completely different. I can't tell you how many 1210 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 3: people that guys I played golf with, or people I've 1211 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 3: met that are California transplants who were just I didn't 1212 01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,600 Speaker 3: want to raise my children in that environment. I couldn't 1213 01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 3: do the regulations. It was healthier for my business to 1214 01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:52,320 Speaker 3: come here. And overall, I think, you know, people are 1215 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 3: tired of being lectured constantly, and it's one thing when 1216 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 3: something crazy happens to like, okay, everyone calmed down when 1217 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,440 Speaker 3: you just never let off the gas pedal on the lecturing. 1218 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,720 Speaker 3: And it cost me seven percent to buy an overpriced house. 1219 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:08,040 Speaker 3: I go into the store and I get three items 1220 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:09,919 Speaker 3: and it cost me one hundred dollars. I just don't 1221 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,919 Speaker 3: want to hear it. Yeah, most human beings, I would say, 1222 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:16,400 Speaker 3: the overwhelming majority of human beings all have the same needs. 1223 01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:18,760 Speaker 3: They just want to live somewhere safe. They want their 1224 01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:20,560 Speaker 3: kids to be safe and have a place to go 1225 01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,160 Speaker 3: to school, and have good friends and just have a 1226 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 3: pretty peaceful life. And I think we jump the shark 1227 01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:30,919 Speaker 3: on constantly screaming at everybody about the moral outrage. People 1228 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 3: are over it because most people wherever you go, most 1229 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:36,680 Speaker 3: of my life, I mean, I'm forty years old, up 1230 01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 3: until the last decade of Democrats Republic, people just got along. 1231 01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,240 Speaker 3: You just say, yeah, have these friends, my family had 1232 01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 3: these friends. We all and it's just everyone just and 1233 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:46,640 Speaker 3: this becomes so polarizing. But then it got and I 1234 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:49,200 Speaker 3: think this has obviously hurt so many people in like 1235 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,440 Speaker 3: the political media, Like I just don't scream at me. 1236 01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 3: I don't care. I don't I think what I think, 1237 01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,320 Speaker 3: I'm not going to change for you. And I think 1238 01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 3: it's been very difficult for people with the lecturing of 1239 01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:03,280 Speaker 3: just the average income in America is like sixty grand, 1240 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 3: Like it is very expensive to live in all these places. Yeah, 1241 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 3: the port is trying to get by on a daily, weekly, 1242 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 3: monthly basis to live life. Life's not that complicated. I 1243 01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 3: think we over complicate some stuff, but I do understand, 1244 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:20,800 Speaker 3: like this is a traumatic event right with the palisades, 1245 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 3: with the money that's gonna be involved, it's gonna get 1246 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 3: very like, it's gonna get very hairy, right, the no 1247 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:29,760 Speaker 3: insurance California's gonna have to step in. It's it's gonna 1248 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:33,480 Speaker 3: be it's gonna get way uglier. I mean, it's it's 1249 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:35,280 Speaker 3: kind of crazy that, at least so far, I think 1250 01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:39,040 Speaker 3: the numbers under twenty people have died, given the given 1251 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,560 Speaker 3: the ferocity of these fires, which obviously is a lot, 1252 01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 3: but I mean relative to what you see, it's crazy 1253 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:46,880 Speaker 3: that it's the number is only that high. But the 1254 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 3: rebuild the people, I think it's gonna be very eye 1255 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:52,040 Speaker 3: opening experience for a lot of people that, let's face it, 1256 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:54,400 Speaker 3: live a pretty, you know, a great I mean, these 1257 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 3: are pretty some of these areas. You know, Pacific Palisade 1258 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 3: is way better than me. But when the average price 1259 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,040 Speaker 3: is five to thirty million dollars. But I don't know 1260 01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 3: if you saw Steve Kerr. I think we talked so 1261 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:06,640 Speaker 3: much about these celebrities and these people worth a lot 1262 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:08,520 Speaker 3: of money. Steve Kerr is like my mom, my parents 1263 01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 3: bought the house in nineteen sixty nine and whatever, I 1264 01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 3: forget the props like Prop thirteen, whatever the year is, 1265 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,320 Speaker 3: seventy nine or eighty five or whatever. These people haven't 1266 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,160 Speaker 3: been paying updated property tax. That's the only way they 1267 01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 3: could afford to live. 1268 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:26,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's there's a feeling, you know that 1269 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles, in these areas Beverly Hills, Palisades, Manhattan 1270 01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 2: Beach where I used to live. I used to live 1271 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,560 Speaker 2: next to a fireman and a school teacher and they 1272 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:39,680 Speaker 2: bought their homes thirty five years ago. Is that? And 1273 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 2: I also think there is a feeling that Los Angeles 1274 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:47,800 Speaker 2: is all crazy left. Beverly Hills voted for Trump, I 1275 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:51,439 Speaker 2: believe twice. And the truth is San Francisco and Los 1276 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:55,959 Speaker 2: Angeles proper are left leaning. But I think people don't 1277 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 2: realize outside of the state, when you get out of 1278 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 2: LA and San Francisco proper, it's very moderate in this state. 1279 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 2: It's just it can get looney Tunes left up in 1280 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 2: San Francisco and certainly in like Hollywood. But I have 1281 01:07:09,520 --> 01:07:13,960 Speaker 2: a pretty wide group of friends. Nobody's far left, nobody's 1282 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:17,040 Speaker 2: far right, but there's a lot more centrist in this area. 1283 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 2: And the outrage at the politicians. Remember Palisades is one 1284 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:25,840 Speaker 2: of the bluest areas of LA. It's it is agents, 1285 01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 2: it is actors, it is celebrities, it leans. It's not 1286 01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:35,880 Speaker 2: Hollywood West Hollywood blue, but it's blue. And they are pissed. 1287 01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 2: And I don't know if it will create a seismic 1288 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 2: shift in the political landscape. But I mean, I wouldn't 1289 01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:47,640 Speaker 2: be shocked if if this Karen Bass stuff the mayor, 1290 01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be shocked. I think this thing may unravel quickly. Listen. 1291 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 3: I don't see her having any shot with the amount 1292 01:07:56,800 --> 01:08:00,720 Speaker 3: of I mean the toll of obviously the homes. When 1293 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 3: you talk about the financial and most importantly whether you're 1294 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 3: worth five hundred million dollars or five hundred dollars total, 1295 01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 3: where you live is probably your most personal thing. It's 1296 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 3: where your family lays their head every night. It's a 1297 01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 3: very emotional thing to lose your home and then feel 1298 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 3: like no one gives a shit and kind of let 1299 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:22,760 Speaker 3: didn't help you out to begin with and didn't put 1300 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,120 Speaker 3: you in a position to save it, right, And look 1301 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 3: at Caruso, didn't he save the area his own whatever 1302 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:28,559 Speaker 3: it is. 1303 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 2: Rick Caruso is a legendary builder in southern California. He's 1304 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,800 Speaker 2: one of the richest people in southern California. I also 1305 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:40,080 Speaker 2: he's a friend. He's one of the nicest, most gracious, 1306 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:43,640 Speaker 2: genuine people I've ever met. I mean Rick Caruso. I 1307 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,040 Speaker 2: could tell you stories for fifteen minutes about Rick Caruso, 1308 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:50,400 Speaker 2: how kind he's been to me, and how thoughtful. I 1309 01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:53,519 Speaker 2: thought he was the choice. I think he's the choice now. 1310 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:56,599 Speaker 2: And that's not even a political statement, that's a common 1311 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,200 Speaker 2: sense statement. He's a builder, he'll get it done, he'll 1312 01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:02,240 Speaker 2: zip through regular relations. But he was an obvious choice 1313 01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 2: I thought the first time. But you know, here's a 1314 01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,240 Speaker 2: guy that had been a Republican, he's a rich male 1315 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:11,360 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles. That's a hard ask, and you know 1316 01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:14,719 Speaker 2: he lost a close race. But listen at this point, 1317 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:16,800 Speaker 2: if you don't see the value of Rick Caruso, I 1318 01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:18,679 Speaker 2: can't help you because we. 1319 01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 3: Need amplemented tomorrow morning at seven am and say Rick, 1320 01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 3: fix it, help out. Let's go. 1321 01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:28,679 Speaker 2: John Middlecoff. I don't even think that was a political discussion. 1322 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:29,479 Speaker 2: I really don't. 1323 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 3: It's a life discussion. I mean, city burned down the 1324 01:09:35,600 --> 01:09:36,080 Speaker 3: volume
