1
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: It's official.

2
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick has entered the transfer portal from NFL legend

3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 2: a college head coach at age seventy two, Belichick now

4
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 2: is set to take over at the University of North Carolina,

5
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 2: but will is tripped down Tobacco road lead to renaissance over.

6
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 2: Scott Pioli, Bucky Brooks, cast of thousands all joined us

7
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 2: as we break down all angles.

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: Of today's stunning conclusion.

9
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: It's the even week fifteen in the NFL, which goes

10
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 2: on without Belichick, and it remains to be seen how

11
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: the NFC West is won. We got forty nine ers, Rams,

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 2: we got Shanahan, McVeigh, perty Stafford. Somebody's hopes are going

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,840
Speaker 2: to go up and smoke on Thursday night. Our Omar

14
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 2: Ruiz will be there, but first he'll be here to

15
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 2: tell you who's got the upper hand. I. Meanwhile, the

16
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: Dolphins still alive in the playoff race too, but can

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 2: they pave the way to the postseason? Only elite blocker

18
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: give us that answer. Good thing all again gold was

19
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: available to join us. Welcome inside with the Insiders alongside

20
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 2: Judy Battista and Ian rappaport I am Tom Peliicero. We

21
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: are live here at the NFL's December meeting outside of Dallas.

22
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: Are wrapped up a short time ago. Ton of news

23
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: out of Roger Goodell's press conference out of the meetings here,

24
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: including some really significant rules changes that could take place

25
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 2: after this season. We will get to all of that.

26
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: We will get to the start of week fifteen, the

27
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 2: playoff chases at everything else. We start, maybe for the

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: last time, with Bill Belichick, who is no longer an

29
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,919
Speaker 2: NFL coach, still a legend, but he is now headed

30
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,559
Speaker 2: into the college game, which is a lot these days

31
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: like the professional game, set to become the next head

32
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 2: football coach at the University of North Carolina. This followed

33
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: days and really weeks of courtship driven by boosters in

34
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: the UNC program who found a way to put together

35
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: the type of resources that Belichick would want and need

36
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 2: to take on that job. We know what he's done

37
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 2: in the NFL six Super Bowl wins as a head coach.

38
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: Of course, another one is the defensive coordinator of the Giants,

39
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: also was closing in on the all time wins record

40
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: Ian but now it appears he's not going to capture that.

41
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 2: He's going to be trying to do something vastly different,

42
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 2: which is going to a traditionally basketball school in the

43
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 2: ACC that has not been a powerhouse, institute a pro

44
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: football style program, and try to compete to win at

45
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: a level that he has never coached.

46
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 3: UNC is no longer just a basketball school. When Bill

47
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 3: Belichick agrees to join North Carolina become the Tar Heels

48
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 3: head coach, as sources said he has done, agreeed in

49
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: terms on a three year deal, it is all of

50
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 3: a sudden a football school. And the fact that Bill

51
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 3: Belichick went from on the verge as you mentioned, of

52
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 3: setting the NFL win record to joining a college program

53
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: is stunning in so many ways. First of all, this was,

54
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,399
Speaker 3: to my understanding, his best opportunity to become a football

55
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 3: coach at any level right now. It is a zag

56
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 3: when everyone else is zigging or whatever the term is.

57
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 3: Plenty of coaches are going away from college football. Bill

58
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 3: Belichick trying to exploit a market inefficiency, as he has

59
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 3: done several times in his career, going toward it. As

60
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 3: he told Pat McAfee a couple days ago, he will

61
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 3: run at Judy like an NFL program. They are going

62
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 3: to have a personnel department with a staff, They're going

63
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 3: to have a coaching staff. The personnel department sounds like

64
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 3: they will do most of the recruiting. The coaches sound

65
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 3: like they will do most of the coaching. At the

66
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 3: head will be Bill Belichick. He has done plenty of

67
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: research over the course of the last several weeks, talking

68
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: to all of his friends in college football. He has

69
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: been paving the way for a staff to join him.

70
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 3: All that was needed for him to accept the job

71
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 3: as he did earlier today.

72
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: It is crazy, but is very real.

73
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 4: And talking to some NFL people in the last few

74
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 4: hours since all of this started to break, the feeling

75
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: is it was clear around the NFL that there was

76
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 4: not going to be an opportunity for Bill Belichick this

77
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 4: time around to get back on the sideline and an

78
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 4: NFL team, And we know that last year when he

79
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 4: departed the New England Patriots, the opportunities were very limited.

80
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 4: The Atlanta Falcons were the lone team that showed real

81
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 4: interest that interviewed him, and I think that probably was

82
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 4: a surprise to an awful lot of people around Bill Belichick,

83
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 4: as was surprised to a lot of us who were

84
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 4: watching the cycle play out that there was very little

85
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 4: interest He of course, did not.

86
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 1: Get that job. Raheem Morris did.

87
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 4: And now the question was if he wanted to coach,

88
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,799
Speaker 4: which everybody knew he really wanted to coach.

89
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 1: He's had a.

90
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 4: Great media career, he will have a great media career again,

91
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 4: but he really wanted to be back on the sideline.

92
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: Could there be.

93
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 4: An opportunity for him in the NFL, And frankly, it

94
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 4: did not look like there was going to be a

95
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 4: job that would work for him, that a team would

96
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 4: want him, that he would want them, and so this

97
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 4: is the landing spot for him. It essentially puts an

98
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 4: end to the idea that he will hold the all

99
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 4: time wins record. He is not going to break down

100
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 4: Shula's all time wins record. Maybe Andy Reid one day will,

101
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 4: but it had felt like a FATA complete that that

102
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 4: was going to be Bill Belichick's record, and that seems

103
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 4: to be over now. It is quite stunning that this

104
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 4: has played out this way. I am fascinated to see

105
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 4: how he does at the college level.

106
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 2: You mentioned the fact that only one team last year

107
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 2: interviewed Bill Belichick. That was the Atlanta Falcons, who initially

108
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 2: had a meeting with Arthur Blank and Belichick on Blank's yacht.

109
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 2: But then based upon the rules, which we spent a

110
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 2: lot of time here talking about how the NFL institutes

111
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 2: things to try to have an equitable hiring process, Belichick

112
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 2: had to come into the office. He had to go

113
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 2: through the same process with the interviews as everybody else.

114
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 2: My understanding was there was a part of Belichick that

115
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 2: was kind of scarred by that entire process because.

116
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: He believed all the way to the end he was

117
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: going to be the Falcon's head coach.

118
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 2: His choice really here Ian was he can wait take

119
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 2: away the sure thing of North Carolina and say I'm

120
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 2: going to wait another what six weeks here to go

121
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 2: through this process and have to go an interview for

122
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: jobs and fly around as if I'm not one of

123
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: the most successful coaches of all time, as opposed to

124
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: donors and boosters who he had known for a while,

125
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 2: stepped up and said we're willing to make this work.

126
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: They were not close last week.

127
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 2: During the initial conversations, but obviously progressed to a point

128
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: that everybody was comfortable and Belichick's headed to college.

129
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 3: My understanding, they came way up on money, They came

130
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: way up to me, and it wasn't about the money

131
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 3: Belichick made millions and millions in the NFL. Is really

132
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 3: more about paying a coach what he should make compared

133
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 3: to compared to his peers. You know, when this first

134
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 3: came out, I called up a Bill Belichick confident to

135
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 3: be like, Hey, isn't this crazy. The very quick response

136
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: I got was, it's not crazy. Look at what Deon

137
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: Sanders is doing. Look at all who all Belichick's friends,

138
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 3: who were all in the college game. He could literally

139
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 3: run this like an NFL program. The ACC is not good,

140
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: he can win. Stop saying this is crazy, And I said,

141
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 3: you know what, this actually makes sense.

142
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: And now it's real.

143
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 4: Well, we're about to find out because he jumps in

144
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 4: at a time when it's free agency in college football

145
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 4: right now, the transfer portal is open.

146
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 1: We will see what kind of.

147
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 4: Movement there is toward Chapel Hill immediately. We will see

148
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 4: what kind of staff he assembles. I suspect we're going

149
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 4: to see some familiar names from his NFL days heading

150
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 4: to Chapel Hill with him. But again, he is jumping

151
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 4: in at a time when he can reshape that roster

152
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 4: very quickly the way he wants it.

153
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 2: We know that there have been some pretty good players,

154
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 2: including a quarterback who's now on Belichick's old team in

155
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 2: New England.

156
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: It's not as if you can't get good.

157
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: Players to North Carolina, but to compete at the level

158
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick would want to, there is a substantial amount

159
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 2: of work to be done, a lot of angles to break.

160
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: Down on this.

161
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 2: So let's bring on the fourth member of our team,

162
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 2: Mike Garafolo.

163
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: Who's also got some special guests.

164
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 5: Yes, I knew, but before we get to them, Ian

165
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 5: referred to it. Yes, let's look at the numbers here.

166
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 5: Bill Belichick behind Don Shula. Still, I mean, nothing's to

167
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 5: say that he can't coach a couple of years of

168
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 5: Carolina think come back to the NFL. But he's still

169
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 5: got some ground to make up in that regard. Belichick,

170
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 5: by the way, will be the only coach to go

171
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 5: to the college ranks after winning a Super.

172
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: Bowl, joining anyone. Bill Walsh. Now here's Diami Brown.

173
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 5: Who's that? That's the Commander's wide receiver who played in

174
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 5: North Carolina. Was asked about it today.

175
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 6: I don't know, you see, I don't know how that

176
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 6: will work.

177
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 7: It's just a different bug game out there, you know.

178
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 8: I hope he can recruit.

179
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 5: That's it. Belichick handles a seventeen year old saying, Hey,

180
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 5: coach two hundred.

181
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: Men, I don't know, I guess he's him, So you

182
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: don't deserve that right now.

183
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 9: I mean I guess it'll ended like like professionals, So

184
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 9: I think he'll be all right.

185
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, good questions from our guy, JP Finlay. There

186
00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 5: here is Scott Peel. He's got a history with Bill

187
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 5: Bellie Check having worked with him in New England. And

188
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 5: here here's Bucky Brooks, who just so happened today to

189
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 5: be wearing his North Carolina play the former tar heel himself.

190
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a coincidence. Huh, this is.

191
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 9: Happening to be the first thing I found in the clush.

192
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: Just happened shameless.

193
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 10: I thought I was shameless going with the Carolina blue,

194
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 10: but then I see Bucky.

195
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?

196
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 11: Man?

197
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: Oh, this is fantastic.

198
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 5: Bucky's gonna be at Sutton's drug Store celebrate with the

199
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 5: rest of those folks. A lot of basketball jerseys up

200
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 5: there in the rafters at Sutton. At Sutton, they better

201
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 5: make room for some football stuff.

202
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: Scott.

203
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 5: Want to start with you, Diomi Brown doesn't think it's

204
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 5: gonna work. A lot of folks over the last couple

205
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 5: of days on the NFL level were saying this is crazy.

206
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 5: He's not actually, and I kept saying, he's serious about this.

207
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 5: That's what I'm hearing your thoughts on this whole decision

208
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 5: by Belichick.

209
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 10: You know, geez, I'm not surprised because again, here's what

210
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 10: Bill is. Bill is a football coach, He's a teacher.

211
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 10: He he loves competition, and he loves to develop. So

212
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 10: to me, this situation and the way things seem to

213
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 10: be shaking out, I'm not surprised at all.

214
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: You know, you go back to how Bill was raised.

215
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 10: Here's a guy whose father was a coach and a teacher,

216
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 10: his mother was a teacher. Bill has this in his blood.

217
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 10: He loves teaching football and developing players as much as

218
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 10: any part of the game does. He like the competition,

219
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 10: absolutely he does. But again, as I started hearing this,

220
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 10: at first, I was a little surprised, and again I

221
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 10: have no insider information. I just saw this as something

222
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 10: that could actually become a possibility, because again when he

223
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 10: started some of the arguments I heard, well, Bill can

224
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 10: never He'll never be able to recruit.

225
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 12: He's not going to be able to do that. He

226
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 12: won't be.

227
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 10: Able to handle the rigors of recruiting. But here's what

228
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 10: I thought about. In terms of recruiting, Bill Belichick is

229
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 10: not going to have to recruit like other FBS head coaches.

230
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 10: And that's not being disrespectful to any of those coaches.

231
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,680
Speaker 10: There is just a standard of what Bill is known

232
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 10: to be and who he is. If you're a young

233
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 10: player and you figure you're going to go to college

234
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 10: for three years, maybe four to become a professional football player,

235
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 10: you're going to make an investment.

236
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 12: There's this whole group of young.

237
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 10: Players are to be coming into college who have parents

238
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 10: who know what Bill Belichick is. So if they're advising,

239
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 10: whether it's parents or advisors or guardians, they're going to

240
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 10: be saying, hey, you do a couple of years here,

241
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 10: you're going to learn football. You're going to learn situation,

242
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 10: situational football. You're going to learn fundamentals and technique. And

243
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 10: if you talk to pro coaches across the league, one

244
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 10: of the things that they talk about that is missing

245
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 10: from young players is fundamentals.

246
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: Bill is all about the fundamentals.

247
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 12: He's going to teach fundamentals.

248
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 10: Bill said if he took this job, if he takes

249
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 10: his job, that he was going to develop players and

250
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 10: prepare them for the NFL. I think he has a

251
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 10: definite edge here.

252
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 5: Bucky Atara, Hail Blue, Throw and throw, Born and Raleigh

253
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 5: went to North Carolina.

254
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: You know the program, know the area. How is this

255
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: going to work?

256
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 9: I think, Look, I think Pola hit the nail on

257
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 9: the head. I think everyone is worried about the money

258
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 9: that's flying around. But to me, when I've seen Bill

259
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 9: Belichick and his protegees have success in the college sphere,

260
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 9: it's because they develop and they build a program. Bill

261
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 9: Belichick is going to build a program. And those who

262
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 9: are chasing the money, they're not going to be the

263
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 9: type for Belichick and the tar Heels. But those who

264
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 9: want to use Carolina to help themselves not only as players,

265
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 9: but to use their education to help them later in life.

266
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 9: It is going to be a great fit for Bill Belichick.

267
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 9: At his core, Coaches coach, teachers, develop young players. They

268
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 9: teach them the fundamentals, they're master the situational football, and

269
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 9: they will do those things. Look, the on field product

270
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 9: is going to be the same product that we saw

271
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 9: from the New England Patriots, and I think about all

272
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 9: of those Patriots teams. They weren't always the most talented,

273
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 9: but they were the most fundamental and they won a

274
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 9: lot of games. So when you look at the ACC

275
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 9: and you look at the teams that are going to

276
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 9: the College Football Playoff from the ACC SMU, I think

277
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 9: Bill Belichick sees a path to be able to get

278
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 9: into the playoffs by being one of the twelve best teams,

279
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 9: by taking care of business, getting the right players and

280
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 9: doing it. And last thing, Bill Walsh had to scratch

281
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 9: the coaching itch by finishing his career going to Stanford

282
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 9: and everyone we're talking about he was seven to seventeen

283
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 9: and one that last ent, but that first season he

284
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 9: was ten and three. I'm not worried about the age.

285
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 9: I think the on field product is what tu tar

286
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 9: Hills are focused on, which is why I can't imagine

287
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 9: a better coach than Bill Belichick taking over.

288
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 10: And Bucky, I think you hit on another important point

289
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 10: here is the type of guys that Bill's.

290
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 12: Going to go out. UNC, as we know, has an

291
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 12: academic standard.

292
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,679
Speaker 10: They have a standard of the type of person that

293
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 10: they're looking for in the intelligence of a player, and

294
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 10: I think that Bill. Hey, when we were at the

295
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 10: New England Patriots, we signed twenty three free agents that

296
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 10: first year we won a Super Bowl and we brought

297
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 10: in Bill Belichick type of guys. People were laughing at

298
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 10: some of the free agents that we signed and didn't

299
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 10: understand who they were because they weren't as good or

300
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 10: as talented or his athletic, but they were Bill Belichick

301
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 10: type of players that were tough, they were smart, and

302
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 10: they were coachable.

303
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: And that's what he's got to do.

304
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 10: He's going to go out and find his kind of guys,

305
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 10: and Bill, because of situational football, always does more with less.

306
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 12: And I'm not saying that UNC is going to have less.

307
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 10: He's going to have a chance to have more, but

308
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 10: also get some of those players that are perceived as

309
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 10: being lesser and make the best of them.

310
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: Davo Sweeny, the head.

311
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 5: Coach of Clemson, asked about the possibility of Bill Belichick

312
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 5: going to North Carolina the other day, had a five

313
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,600

00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 13: We've talked a lot about your work with foster care

337
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 13: and adoption for people who don't know at home. Can

338
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 13: you share your personal journey and how it's kind of

339
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 13: led you to impact your community.

340
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

341
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 11: Man, I think being adopted at birth is a huge

342
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 11: part of my story.

343
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 12: Growing up in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

344
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 11: Always was seeing how impactful the NFL community can an

345
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 11: NFL organization could be in that community. I was that

346
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 11: kid growing up, always looking forward to going to games,

347
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 11: seeing the guys in the grocery stores, seeing him out

348
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 11: at school, and knew that if I were ever in

349
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 11: this spot, I would want to give back and to

350
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 11: be able to give back to such a cause that's

351
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 11: near and dear to my heart, my family's heart, through

352
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 11: adoption in foster care.

353
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 12: It's been a massive blessing.

354
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: Man.

355
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 12: It brings purpose out of the football field.

356
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 11: It allows us to do what we can do, pushing

357
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 11: through those in season nick knacks, whatever you want to

358
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 11: call them, to be able to just play a little

359
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 11: bit harder for the guy.

360
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 12: Next to you in the community that you're a part of.

361
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 11: So always a blessing to be able to get this

362
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 11: recognition and doing the work that means means the most.

363
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 5: Your story was highlighted by NBC when you returned home

364
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 5: to Green.

365
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: Bay for that Thanksgiving game.

366
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 5: If you haven't seen it, go find it on social

367
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 5: After this interview, watch the rest of the interview. First,

368
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 5: but the work that you're doing in the community. Talk

369
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 5: to us about the donation. Every thirty yards of the

370
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 5: Dolphins offense we're donating.

371
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: How's that going so far this year?

372
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 11: Yeah, we're building a playground And I figured, you know,

373
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 11: thirty yards for every you know, one hundred dollars for

374
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 11: every thirty yards that the offense puts up for the

375
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 11: Dolphins would be great. If it was my yardage, we

376
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 11: wouldn't get a whole heck of a lot of donations.

377
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 12: So we have von Hchan, we have two of Tagovailoa,

378
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 12: we have John.

379
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 11: Neu Smith doing a great thing, and they're getting in

380
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 11: the pockets and being able to make sure that a

381
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 11: children's village down here in South Florida is going to

382
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 11: have a brand new playground by the end of the year.

383
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 11: So it's been a fun campaign and a little cool

384
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 11: campaign that you're able to kind of track throughout the year.

385
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 13: Alec a lot of money going out giving how you

386
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 13: guys are putting up yards on offense recently. One thing

387
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 13: about your story that I think is special is that

388
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 13: a lot of people at home may be adopted or

389
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 13: coming through a foster community who feel connected to you.

390
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 13: What would be your message to them about how they

391
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 13: get through their particular trials and sibulations like you did yours.

392
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 12: And that's a great question.

393
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 11: I think one of the biggest pieces after that special

394
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 11: in all of this recognition that the NFL puts on

395
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 11: for all of us doing work inside the community is

396
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 11: the conversations that are being had, the outreach that you

397
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 11: haven't really understand how much adoption and foster care can

398
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 11: impact every area of your life. There's been people reaching

399
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 11: out working on the house, or different contractors coming up,

400
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 11: different people in the community talking about how close adoption

401
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 11: and their family and how unique everyone's family is, and

402
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 11: how everyone just wants to hug their kids, give them

403
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 11: a big, big hugging of kiss before they go to bed.

404
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 11: So I would just say, man, accepting support. It's a

405
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 11: two way street, giving, receiving and making sure we're having conversations,

406
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 11: telling each other we love them, spreading some good in

407
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 11: this world.

408
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 12: It can all start with one conversation.

409
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 5: I talked about your book The Seven Crucibles that you

410
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 5: wrote a couple of years ago about persevering through adversity.

411
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,479
Speaker 5: Is there anything in there about playing through a broken

412
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 5: thumb or thumb surgery? I believe you had and you

413
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 5: still played through it last year. How did you manage that?

414
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 8: Yeah?

415
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 11: I read in that book on the rehab table after

416
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 11: an ACL injury wasn't the most glorious time in my life,

417
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 11: but I do think it was relatable. I think the

418
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 11: injury rate in sports has to be out one hundred percent.

419
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 11: Everyone deals with trials and tribulations in their own way.

420
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 11: So being able to have a book out there that's

421
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 11: a little bit of a blueprint and how to overcome

422
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 11: adversity and become the best version of yourself, chase it,

423
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 11: go all in, see how great you can be.

424
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 12: Why not? I think that's really the message of the story.

425
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 11: And it's been a pretty big blessing to be able

426
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 11: to have some athletes some coaches really reach out and

427
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 11: see how it's helped them throughout their seasons overcoming adversity

428
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 11: not only in their own journey, but as a team

429
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 11: and a collective making sure that they're doing the best

430
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 11: they can.

431
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 13: I love it, and Alec, I'll take your message and

432
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 13: tell you I love you as well. We talk about

433
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,719
Speaker 13: trials and tribulations. There's been a lot in this Dolphin

434
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 13: season for you guys, you know, from twos injury earlier

435
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 13: in the year to now making this playoff push. Can

436
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,199
Speaker 13: you maybe give us insight on what it's been like

437
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 13: inside that locker room as you guys make this final push.

438
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 13: Who has been stepping up?

439
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: What has been said?

440
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 11: It's a great question, it's more so who hasn't been

441
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 11: stepping up. I think everybody is doing their one eleventh

442
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 11: right now inside the locker room as well as on

443
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 11: the field. We're obviously leaning on on another to make

444
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 11: plays when your number is called. I think John of

445
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 11: Smith last week was a perfect example, you know, not

446
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 11: touching the ball till overtime and having the hot hand

447
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 11: and being able to step in and hit game winning

448
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 11: touchdown right off the bat to walk off.

449
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 12: That was amazing. So I think it's you know, a.

450
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 11: Big belief in our team in our locker room, understanding

451
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 11: that we've had some of these residual little paper cuts

452
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 11: that have been kind of hurting us in the win

453
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,719
Speaker 11: loss column early in the season. How do you respond

454
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 11: from it? You can't control the outcomes all the time.

455
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 11: By how you control your response to it. I think

456
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 11: you're kind of seeing this run happening. We're trying to

457
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 11: learn from the past, make sure that those mistakes get

458
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 11: cleaned up and inspired by the future, and playing one

459
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 11: week at a time. Man, it's a one week season

460
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 11: in the Miami Dolphins locker room. So that's where we're

461
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 11: That's how we're working.

462
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 5: You've got a creative head coach. I mentioned you're a

463
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 5: former high school quarterback. Is it somewhere in the playbook

464
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 5: you know where I'm driving. I mean, we need you

465
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 5: don't have any attempts passing attempts in the NFL.

466
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: We need to fix that.

467
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 5: Like I'm thinking, like a I don't know, a thirty

468
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 5: yard pass, just throwing it down.

469
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 11: There, coach, I think we get in the high red zone,

470
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 11: we get the wildcat, we bring it back. We'll go

471
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 11: five running backs on the field. We'll get all of

472
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 11: us out there. If the defensive coaches don't call time out,

473
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 11: we might have to call time out. Nobody's gonna know

474
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 11: what's happening. I think that'd be a lot of fun.

475
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 11: I'll just chuck it to Tyreek, see how fast he

476
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 11: can run.

477
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 5: Got to send that to Mike mcganiel ty Tyreek down

478
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 5: there somewhere, right that's the play Tyreek down there somewhere.

Speaker 4: out of us.

508
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 8: I don't know. If it's a small portion, it's a

509
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 8: pretty big deal for us. Well, I can say that,

510
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 8: you know, the association with Arctos is going to be

511
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 8: it's going to be a nice thing for us because

512
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 8: they've got so much involvement in sports around the world

513
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 8: and in multiple sports. And one of the things that

514
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 8: I wanted to accomplish when I started down this journey

515
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 8: was I wanted to have partners that I could get

516
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 8: along with. And Doc O'Connor and Ian Charles and Jordan Solomon.

517
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 8: You know, they're good guys and we had a lot

518
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 8: of fun last night, so we're going to get along

519
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:58,479
Speaker 8: well with them. Our other limiteds are they've been Bills

520
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 8: fans longer than I have. You know, they grew up,

521
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 8: several of them in the Buffalo area and they loved

522
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 8: the Bills from when they were small children, and I

523
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 8: thought that was pretty cool. They're now successful living in

524
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 8: other areas but love the Bills and I think that's great.

525
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 8: And they're and they're all good, good people to get

526
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 8: along with and fun to be with, so awesome. And

527
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 8: they also they're good business people. And one of the

528
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 8: things I wanted to try to accomplish was, you know,

529
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 8: with Kim's health issue, two of our investors are female,

530
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 8: and I thought that successful female business people that can

531
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 8: be an influence on my daughters in the future and

532
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 8: you know, help them grow in the business world.

533
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 12: That's very cool.

534
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 3: You also have a couple very recognizable non football playing athletes,

535
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 3: Tracey McGrady, Vince Carter, Josie Altador.

536
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: I assume you are not.

537
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 3: Creating a basketball team, so to talk about the benefits

538
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 3: of having those big time names and big time guys

539
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 3: with you, right.

540
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 8: You know, when I first met them in my office,

541
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 8: if you didn't know who they were, they are very

542
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 8: humble people, all three of them. And I find it

543
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:32,719
Speaker 8: interesting that Josie is married to Sloan Stevens and you know,

544
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 8: Jesse's a tennis player, so it's sloan, but again Toronto

545
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 8: connections and they're well respected up there, so it's going

546
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 8: to be fun working with them, and they're willing to

547
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 8: help out increase our business in Toronto with our Canadian friends.

548
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 4: Well, we have you here, we have to ask you

549
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 4: about how the stadium is. I was up at one

550
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 4: of your games only a few weeks ago in the

551
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 4: stadiums going up pretty quickly.

552
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 8: What's the update on that We are on time? You know,

553
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 8: like most costs in this country right now with inflation,

554
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 8: you know, we're a little bit over budget, but it's

555
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 8: going well and you know we'll be done in July

556
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 8: twenty six.

557
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 4: I can't wait.

558
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 8: Yeah go.

559
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 3: Your football team is also very good, having the kind

560
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 3: of a season that you might have seen coming, but

561
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 3: I'm not sure every NFL fan did. You got a

562
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 3: huge one this week facing the Lions. What are your

563
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 3: thoughts in general on your what your team has accomplished

564
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 3: so far, and then kind of look forward to that

565
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 3: big time matchup on Sunday.

566
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 8: Well, Terry Pagula grew up Alliance fan, and one of

567
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,880
Speaker 8: my biggest regrets when I got into the National Football

568
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 8: League was we played Detroit a couple of Thanksgivings ago,

569
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 8: and that was like a religious experience for me. On

570
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 8: Thanksgiving Day, we had to eat dinner so I could

571
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 8: see the television and watch my alliance play. So I

572
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 8: regretted missing that game because that was the year Kim

573
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 8: had her problem. But it's when I go to Detroit.

574
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 8: Now I own a team and I'm playing the team

575
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 8: I grew up cheering for.

576
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 4: You must be pretty excited about the state of your

577
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 4: own team right now.

578
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, yeah, we've accomplished more, you know, with all

579
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 8: the injuries we've had, but most a lot of teams

580
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 8: have injuries. But we're doing a good job this year

581
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 8: with hanging in there, playing in the snow.

582
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 4: Yeah great, better than just hanging in there. Thank you

583
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 4: for joining us, Terry, appreciate you. Congratulations.

584
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,959
Speaker 2: More news here in Dallas today, the NFL is headed

585
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 2: to Berlin, a market and a stadium that the league

586
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 2: knows well.

587
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: This music will.

588
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 2: Actually be playing for all three hours during the game.

589
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 2: So you got Berlin, you got three games in London.

590
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 2: NFL headed to Madrid and expect additional international announcements in

591
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 2: the months to come about the twenty twenty five season.

592
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: NFL commissioner how long is this loop? Anyone know when

593
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: the sound goes?

594
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 2: NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell speaking earlier today about more serious topics,

595
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 2: including an answer to a question about whether the NFL,

596
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 2: like other businesses around the country, potentially might move away

597
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 2: from some of its DEI initiatives.

598
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 6: We didn't get into this because it was a trend,

599
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 6: and we're not getting out of it because it's a trend.

600
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 6: We're in it because it makes the NFL better. And

601
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 6: what it is is to make sure that we're attracting

602
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 6: the best possible talent into our league and to allow

603
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 6: them opportunities to be able to advance. The best people

604
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 6: are going into the league, and that's what's good for us.

605
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 6: So our our rules and our policies are really designed

606
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 6: around how do we increase the number of people that

607
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 6: have an opportunity to have a career in the NFL,

608
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 6: including people of color and women. And that's something that

609
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 6: we believe fully is going to make the NFL better.

610
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 6: So those are processes that give our teams a chance

611
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 6: to attract the best talent.

612
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 2: There was also some on the field news today. This

613
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 2: is not a meeting judy where historically there's been votes

614
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 2: on anything. They don't change rules during the season, but

615
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 2: some illuminating comments, not just on some of the changes

616
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 2: they've made previously, but maybe some changes we can have

617
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: moved forward to.

618
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 4: Yes, they briefed owners on a number of on field

619
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 4: issues and one of them was, not surprisingly, the dynamic

620
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 4: kickoff and how that has gone. It's gone pretty well.

621
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 4: They're pretty happy with what they've seen. There are more

622
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 4: returns in the game, about thirty percent or so, they said.

623
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 4: Roger Goodell said, maybe you know, you change the touch

624
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 4: back line. They definitely want to get even more returns,

625
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 4: maybe up into the forty percentile. But they are also

626
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 4: talking about a reduction in injuries across the board in

627
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 4: every category, which is obviously good news, and a big

628
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 4: part of that is the reduction of injuries on the kickoff,

629
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 4: which was one of the big reasons why they changed

630
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 4: the kickoff in the first place, because the injury rate

631
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 4: was much higher on that play than it is compared

632
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 4: to regular plays from scrimmage. The rate now is closer

633
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 4: to a regular play from scrimmage.

634
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 1: That is the good news.

635
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 4: The problem with the dynamic kickoff is they also had

636
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 4: to change the on side kick, and they've basically made

637
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 4: it a dead play now right, I mean, you don't

638
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 4: have to pay attention to the onside kick because you've

639
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 4: got to declare it it happens in the fourth quarter.

640
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 4: Only it's just nothing. They said they're going to have

641
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 4: to take a look at that. They want every play

642
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 4: in the NFL to be a play.

643
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 1: You have to watch.

644
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 4: They don't want you to tune out when an onside

645
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 4: kick is going on, So they're going you have to

646
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 4: look at the on side kick in the off season. That,

647
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 4: of course is part of the purview of the Competition Committee,

648
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 4: which usually gets to work in February.

649
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I was fascinated also by them saying, Judy,

650
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 3: that they could approve a situation where on side kicks

651
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 3: could happen not just in.

652
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: The fourth quarter, but any quarter. Tom Ill they tell you.

653
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 3: The thing that struck me is the potential to expand

654
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 3: replay assist and replay assist is something that I'm not

655
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 3: sure how much fans are really aware of what's going on,

656
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 3: but it's basically, when the officials talk to New York,

657
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 3: they review a play very quickly change into what should

658
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 3: be the correct call, something very clear, very obvious, and

659
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 3: they just move on expanding that to additional thousand, including

660
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 3: face masks, egregious face mash like. Of course, your friend

661
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 3: Sam Darnold had a couple of weeks back, there was

662
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow one. There it is right their ouch. There's

663
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 3: a Joe Burrow one recently as well. If it was

664
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 3: clear and obvious, theoretically they should be able to fix it.

665
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,239
Speaker 1: At least they're going to look at that.

666
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 2: This offseason competition committee historically has been again having subjective

667
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 2: types of fouls submitted to replay. They also have not

668
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 2: wanted flags to be thrown by officials who are not

669
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 2: on the field. This would actually, in both cases go

670
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 2: a place that they have not wanted to before. I

671
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 2: asked Troy Vincent, what's the standard you will be comfortable

672
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 2: with for a flag to be put down? He said,

673
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 2: that's going to come down to the appetite that they

674
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 2: have from ownerships. Really interesting discussions we'll be monitoring through March.

675
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 2: A really interesting game we've got to kick off Week

676
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 2: fifteen on Thursday night. It is the Rams and the

677
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, two teams that always seem to be

678
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 2: there at the end, and that end could come pretty

679
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 2: quickly for the loser of this game. Orobarwiz is going

680
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 2: to be there, but first he'll be here helping us

681
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 2: break it down on the Insiders.

682
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 4: Thursday Night Football on Prime features an NFC West clash.

683
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 4: It's Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams versus brock

684
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 4: Perty and the San Francisco forty nine Ers this Thursday,

685
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 4: eight to fifteen pm Eastern only on Prime Video. And

686
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 4: I know at least one person who is going to

687
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 4: be there, our very own Omar Ruiz, who joins us

688
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 4: now to preview this game. All right, Omar. Obviously, the

689
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 4: Seattle Seahawks have surged into the lead of the division.

690
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 4: How important does that make this game for these two teams?

691
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 14: Judy, It's essentially a playoff elimination game. The loser, not

692
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,479
Speaker 14: officially but certainly has a more steep of an uphill climb.

693
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 14: The winner is still in position to lurk and fight.

694
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 14: If the Seahawks stumbled down the stretch in the NFC

695
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 14: West and both of these teams, the Rams and the

696
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 14: forty nine Ers the rivals. They played a thriller in

697
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 14: week three, in which the Rams came back and won

698
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 14: at the very end. No Deebo Samuel, no George Kittle,

699
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 14: no Cooper Cup, no Puka Nakua and that one. So

700
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 14: both teams expecting a much different game this time around,

701
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 14: but both these teams very familiar with these uphill climbs

702
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 14: late season surges. Of course, the Niners in twenty one

703
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 14: were three to five at one point, and twenty two

704
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 14: they were three and four at one point. Both of

705
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 14: those seasons they ended up in the ENDFC Championship game.

706
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 14: It all seemed to come together for them last week

707
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 14: against the Bears, that dominating performance. I asked Helenoa Hufunga,

708
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 14: who returned and played well, what happened? What sparked that

709
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 14: great play against Chicago? He said, they played with tenacity

710
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,880
Speaker 14: and communication. Then, of course, the Rams were three and

711
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 14: six last year to rally together make the playoffs, they

712
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 14: were one and four at some point this year.

713
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 1: I asked Matthew Stafford.

714
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 14: Does it feel when you're in these late season pushes

715
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 14: that you're getting better on a daily basis or really

716
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 14: we can only evaluate what we see on Sundays, And

717
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 14: he said, yes, you do see the progress that they're

718
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 14: making in their meetings, in their practice, and what they

719
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,879
Speaker 14: see on Sundays. Is it all coming together? Obviously they're

720
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 14: a little more healthy now, they're confident going forward. So

721
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,760
Speaker 14: it should be a great game, a great atmosphere tomorrow

722
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:43,400
Speaker 14: in Santa Clara.

723
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 4: Judy can't wait to get home from Dallas and watch

724
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 4: this one. Omar, enjoy the game. When we return, we're

725
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 4: going to talk about this guy, Aaron Rodgers. Could he

726
00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 4: help your fantasy team we return on the Insiders.

727
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,919
Speaker 1: Michael f. Florio not to be confused with Mike Florio. Sure, yeah,

728
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: so this is fake fake, I don't know.

729
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 12: Click on his name?

730
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 4: Can you click on his name?

731
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,720
Speaker 8: Michael Florio, Fantasy Football, NFL analyst eighty one THOUSANDFL Fantasy

732
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 8: NFL Network.

733
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: Feels like this guy's real.

734
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, see, you can't tell because check marks mean nothing

735
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 5: as well as a guy with the check mark tweeting this.

736
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 5: But you know what, we know him, We know him well,

737
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 5: we love him. Our fantasy expert, Michael F. Florio, He

738
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 5: is real. I'm going to prove it right now. We're

739
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 5: going inside with NFL Fantasy Left. There he is right

740
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 5: over here to our left. Florio, you get one more

741
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 5: crack at this. Talk to Aaron right to the camera

742
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:52,839
Speaker 5: right now.

743
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, Aaron Rodgers, not only am I real? I

744
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 1: would make the argument I've probably helped more people in

745
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: Fantasy this season then you have. So yep, wow, thank

746
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: you and thank you, thank you. That was funny. It

747
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: was a good line. But also you helped me.

748
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 5: So regular viewers of the program, all three dozen of you,

749
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 5: will remember Fouri'll help me draft my team back in September.

750
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 5: They'll also remember that I told him I was in

751
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 5: the playoffs last week.

752
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: That was not accurate.

753
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,839
Speaker 5: I needed either a win or to lose by less

754
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 5: than sixteen points and get in on total points. I

755
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 5: was down thirty one going into Monday night. Ricodowdell and

756
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,400
Speaker 5: Ceedee Lamb. Can I get all thirty one points? To

757
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 5: the highlights? We go late in the fourth quarter. Here

758
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 5: is Dowbell for fourteen yards. This got me within a

759
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 5: point of what I needed. But I need to get

760
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 5: the ball back. I'm getting it back right here. Beautiful

761
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 5: block punt. All right, that's good. No, no, don't touch stuff.

762
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: But I can't. I'm about to.

763
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 5: I'm about to be eliminated from the Fantasy playoffs. By

764
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 5: one point because of that. Nope, thank you Joe Burrow,

765
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 5: thank you Jamar Chase.

766
00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 1: Into the end zone. We're getting the ball back.

767
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 5: Oreos getting texts left it right on this one and

768
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 5: here it is. Here it is Cooper Rush Taciti Lab

769
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 5: for fifteen and the Outsiders are in the Fantasy playoffs.

770
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 5: What a dramatic I'm sorry, Cowboys, you didn't win the game,

771
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 5: but it was a dramatic finish For me, it was amazing.

772
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 5: I knocked off my friend Brad Parks. I used to

773
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 5: work with him at the Star Ledger. He said to me,

774
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 5: if you're gonna broadcast this, just make sure you mentioned me,

775
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 5: author Brad Parks, whose latest novel is available wherever books

776
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 5: are sold.

777
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: I ought to at least get some royalties out of

778
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: this blank this happened.

779
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 5: Feel bad he missed the playoffs by two points the

780
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 5: whole season. Thank you, Florio, and thank you for what

781
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 5: you're about to tell us regarding quarterbacks and what we

782
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 5: can do here to help our team out as we

783
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 5: get into the postseason.

784
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 7: Playing for fourteen weeks and missing it by two points

785
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 7: in the fashion that it happened.

786
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: I would have been in Ray Barks for you, Mike.

787
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 7: I was ecstatic, and then, yeah, we're gonna talk some

788
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 7: quarterbacks that are maybe a little under the radar to

789
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 7: a tongue of Iloa is certainly one of them.

790
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: I don't think enough people.

791
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,399
Speaker 7: Realize that in the last month only Josh Allen has

792
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 7: more fantasy points amongst quarterbacks.

793
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 1: He has averaged twenty five per game in that span.

794
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 7: And the Dolphins, they are leaning on the pass again,

795
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 7: the Texans' second most passing touchdowns allowed. And then I

796
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 7: think Aaron Rodgers is a sneaky start this week, coming

797
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 7: off of his first three hundred yard games in years.

798
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 7: He has multiple.

799
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: Passing touchdowns and three of his last four.

800
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 7: But this is more about the matchup because the Jaguars

801
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 7: have allowed the second most yards and fantasy points two quarterbacks. Look,

802
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 7: Aaron Rodgers is not going to help the Jets in

803
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 7: the playoffs this year, but he might help.

804
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: Fantasy managers if he could come through in this one.

805
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 8: Fouria.

806
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 3: Other thing I really liked is when Mike was texting

807
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 3: me and Tom about his fantasy situation, as if we'd

808
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 3: be rooting for him.

809
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 1: I was definitely rooting against him.

810
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 3: Sorry, Mike, I wish you had lost in whoever it

811
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 3: was you just mentioned there. Anyway, Fourio tell us about

812
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 3: receivers and running backs, go through it.

813
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 7: Yeah, running back wise, the star of the outsiders from

814
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 7: last week, Rico Dowdell, remains in play this week. Not

815
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 7: only has he been playing really well with eighteen or

816
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,879
Speaker 7: more touches in three straight games one hundred and ten

817
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 7: or more yards in two, but.

818
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,280
Speaker 1: It's a fantastic matchup.

819
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 7: The Panthers have allowed the most rushing yards, touchdowns, and

820
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,879
Speaker 7: fantasy points per game two wide receivers, and I don't

821
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 7: think you'll have to worry about like him getting games

822
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 7: scripted out or anything along those lines. And then my guy,

823
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,359
Speaker 7: Sincere McCormick, I've been talking him up for a few

824
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 7: weeks now. Last week he had eighteen opportunities. Antonio Pierce

825
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 7: came out today and said he will be the starter,

826
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,919
Speaker 7: and he deserves so because in the last three games

827
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 7: he's averaging over five yards per carry.

828
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 1: He has looked explosive.

829
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 7: And after this week, which is a good matchup, he

830
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 7: gets the Jags and Saints, two of the best matchups

831
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 7: a running back could have. And then you want some

832
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 7: wide receivers. Adam Feelen yes, who is double digit targets?

833
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: You have him as well, Mike, let's go. I don't digit,

834
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 1: I don't. I just wanted them, I was.

835
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 7: I'm rooting for the outsiders. It's kind of my fantasy team,

836
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 7: at least I have a rooting interest in it. But

837
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 7: double digit targets in two straight games, and in those

838
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,240
Speaker 7: two games at least ninety nine yards at least nineteen

839
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,959
Speaker 7: fantasy points. And again good matchup as the Cowboys top

840
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 7: ten in yards and touchdowns allowed to wide receivers. And

841
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 7: then Jacoby Myers, probably the most underrated wide receiver in

842
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 7: fantasy football, ten or more targets in three straight and

843
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 7: four of his last five since we three since they

844
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 7: got rid of DeVonta Adams, nearly sixteen fantasy points per game,

845
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 7: and this week he gets the Falcons, who will allowed

846
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:34,280
Speaker 7: the second most fantasy points to quarterbacks to wide receivers.

847
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 7: So even with quarterback concerns, Jacoby Myers is in play

848
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 7: this week.

849
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 15: All right, tight ends to wrap it up here for

850
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:45,720
Speaker 15: us for you John Us Smith, who if he finishes

851
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 15: as a tight end, one friend of the show, Lakwan Jones,

852
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 15: has to dye his hair strawberry blonde.

853
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 7: And I don't see why that would change because he

854
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 7: in the last four games he is averaging twenty two

855
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 7: Fantasy points per game, with at least thirteen in each.

856
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 7: He had zero through four quarters last week and still

857
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 7: finished the week as the tight end seven. Not a

858
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 7: great matchup, but he is in play this week. And

859
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,400
Speaker 7: then Hunter Henry over eleven Fantasy points per game with

860
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 7: Drake Mayis's quarterback. Only seven tight ends this year have

861
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 7: averaged more than the number he has put up with

862
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:17,840
Speaker 7: may At, one of which.

863
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 1: Is Taysom Hill, who you cannot play anymore.

864
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 7: So the production and the volume has been too good

865
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 7: with Drake may that.

866
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: I think Hunter Henry remains in play moving forward.

867
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 5: Just to put a bow on this Hall segment, all

868
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 5: that Monday and I drama could have been avoided if

869
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 5: I just started Jordan Addison Florio to quote former professional

870
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 5: golfer Happy Gilmour, where we are you on that one?

871
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 12: Bleep?

872
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: But he bleep?

873
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 5: I kid, I kid, you are real and you are spectacular.

874
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 1: Michael F. Florio. We love you, pal, we appreciate you.

875
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:51,399
Speaker 8: Now.

876
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 2: Official University of North Carolina announcing that Bill Belichick has

886
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 2: dad and treasured those times. I have always wanted to

Speaker 2: coach in college, and now I look forward to building

888
