00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: We will dive into that because there's a lot going

30
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: on there. We have Woody Johnson playing GM, We got

31
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: Tomlin going to Russell Wilson. It looking rocky, to say

32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: the least at the start to turning into it look

33
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: like a genus move by the end of the game.

34
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: And yeah, just just a crazy game. I want to

35
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: dive deep into some games. Colin and I go after

36
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: every Sunday night game, or excuse me, every Sunday afternoon game.

37
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: So we went deep on the Chiefs Niner game, the

38
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: Lions Minnesota game, the Eagle Giants game, and the Packer

39
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: Houston game. We talked a lot about those games, So

40
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: if you want to go back and hear my takes

41
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: on those, obviously we'll get into it too as the

42
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: week goes on, but I'm not going to discuss those

43
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: games here. So Colin and I talked about those. You

44
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: see it on YouTube or seed. On the podcast. I

45
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: do want to talk about Anthony richardson the Colt's Got

46
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: a problem. I do want to talk about some things

47
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: I've seen with the Patriots and the Commanders when it

48
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: comes to coaching and young quarterbacks. I do want to

49
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: talk about Miles Garrett and some of his thoughts on

50
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: some of his thoughts on DeShawn Watson because he was

51
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: not happy be with people booing him. And I gotta say,

52
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: I understand where the fans are coming from. So that'll

53
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: be the play of today, and we will have another

54
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,240

62
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, Monday Night Football. I'm like, I thought

64
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: like double header, and it's not even a normal double header.

Speaker 1: of football stuff, the World Series here. So if you

80
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: are a Dodger fan, if you're first time, the Yankees

81
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: have made the World Series in fifteen years, pretty crazy.

82
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: Brian Cashman's been the GM there since like nineteen sixteen.

83
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 1: He was dressed last night like he was going to

96
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 1: let's dive into the game. Just a big picture thought.

97
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: And it kind of hit me toward the end as

98
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers were kind of choking them out that it

99
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: reminded me a little bit of Saturday Night. So far,

100
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: the biggest college football game of the year when Georgia

101
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: went into Texas and kicked their ass. And this isn't

102
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: apples to apples because the Steelers were up against the

103
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: Ropes early on in that game. But the NFL's different

104
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: than college. But over the course of the game, the

105
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: cream rose, the best team won and really the Steelers

106
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: dominated them in the second half. Is that culture matters,

107
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: Is that the ethos of your franchise, the direction of

108
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: you are being led by your head coach, by your organization,

109
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: by the beliefs that the emblem on the side of

110
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: your helmet stands. For certain organizations, it means something. And

111
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: with the Pittsburgh Steelers at the end of that game,

112
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: Collins were said, He's like, it's crazy. We go to

113
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: so many practices and there isn't many practices, if any,

114
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: like the Steelers on a Friday or they go full

115
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: pads and they practice for two hours. And he's like,

116
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: I asked, Tomlin, is it hard? Sometimes free agents people

117
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: talk they don't want to come because they want no

118
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: part of it. And Tomlin's like, yeah, we get guys

119
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 1: that will turn us down for that. And you know what,

120
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: they wouldn't want those guys because the Chiefs do the

121
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: same thing. If you can't handle the physicality of practice,

122
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 1: of the mental and physical toll that it takes being

123
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: a member of this organization, don't come because you won't last.

124
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: But most importantly with the Steelers, and like a lot

125
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: of good organizations, the Ravens, the chiefs, their stability, there's

126
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: one vision with the Jets. This morning, Adam Schefter reported,

127
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: Hassan Reddick is coming back. His agents fired him, right,

128
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: so he gets with Drew Rosenhouse, one of the great

129
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: deal makers in like the history of business, and he

130
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: got a deal done. And as Schefter reported, he's the

131
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: first guy to hold out in the last decade into

132
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: the season that got a rework deal. And so I

133
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: clicked on the article Schefter tweeted out and do you

134
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: know who was quoted in there the dealt with the

135
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: deal was Drew Rosenhouse, who said he dealt directly with

136
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: Woody Johnson. Who do you think made the trade last

137
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: week for DeVante Adams. You think it was Joe Douglas,

138
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: who's clearly a dead man walking and will not be

139
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: the general manager of the team next year because his

140
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: deal's up and they haven't had any success. Of course,

141
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: not it was Woody Johnson. You can't function like that now, listen.

142
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: I don't pretend to be right about everything wrong often

143
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: part of the gig. When Tomlin went to Russell Wilson, honestly,

144
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 1: when the rumor started last week, I didn't believe him.

145
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: I thought he was messing with the Jets. Fought it

146
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: all week, and then it was pretty clear when the

147
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: video went viral of George Pickens acknowledging that Russell Wilson

148
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 1: was starting. I think that was on like you Thursday

149
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: afternoon or Friday. It really couldn't be denied. I was like, yeah,

150
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: maybe I was wrong, and then the game starts and

151
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: you're like, this is nuts. He's skipping balls. He looks atrocious,

152
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: like Mike Tomlin. Listen, anyone that's watching the baseball playoffs know,

153
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: or if you just like baseball. In the playoffs, sometimes

154
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: you take a picture out for someone in the bullpen,

155
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: or you substitute a hit her for someone off the bench.

156
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: Sometimes that guy hits a home run or strikes out

157
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: the side and saves the game and you win. And

158
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: sometimes that guy grounds into a double play and your

159
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: season ends and you go home and the manager looks

160
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: like an idiot. But Mike Tomlin, when Russell Wilson starts,

161
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: you don't have to go. Do you think it was

162
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: the Roonies? Do you think it was the new GM. No,

163
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: it was Mike Tomlin's decision. But whenever you go with

164
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: the Jets, you go what is going on? Who's making

165
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: these decisions? And the answer is, I don't know. Sometimes

166
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: it's the owner. Sometimes it's the forty year old quarterback

167
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: who's nowhere near as good as he once was, even

168
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 1: though he's way better than anything they've had. There are

169
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: a team full of mercenaries. And going back to the

170
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: Georgia Texas game is the one thing that really stood

171
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: out to me is there's like a way of life

172
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: when you play football at Georgia. When we're playing, well,

173
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to destroy and hurt you physically, and

174
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: for most people that we play, we're able to impose

175
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 1: our will. And that's how the Steelers have all often played.

176
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 1: It's why when you close your eyes you think about

177
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers and they acknowledge the team from the

178
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: seventies to night. You think me and Joe Green, You

179
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: think when I was a kid, Greg Lloyd and Kevin

180
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: Green to now TJ. Watt and Mika Fitzpatrick and High

181
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: Smith off the edge, and Cam Hayward in the middle

182
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: and now Joey Porter Junior, whose father also played there,

183
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: And it's kind of what they stand for and who

184
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: they are, and Mike Tomlin on the sideline. And as

185
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: this game played out, you looked at the other side

186
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: and you're like, this is just a team full of

187
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: mercenaries hired guns. In baseball, that works sometimes, right, you

188
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: look at the teams in the World Series. I buy

189
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: or trade for Juan Soto, I trade for John Carlos Stanton,

190
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: I buy Shoho Tani, I buy whoever right, I trade

191
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: for Mookie Betts. It's a plug and play sport. It

192
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Chemistries, as Billy Bean would tell you, relatively overrated,

193
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: and I would kind of agree. In football, it's not.

194
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: You can't just have DeVante Adams show up on Tuesday

195
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: or Wednesday, think everything's fixed tomorrow is san Reddick walks

196
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: into the building, come on in. You think he gives

197
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: a shit that they are two and five and they've

198
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 1: been kind of embarrassed the last couple weeks. On Monday

199
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: and Sunday night football that their head coach was escorted

200
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: out of the building a couple weeks ago. Hell, no,

201
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: doesn't even know the guy, why would he care. So

202
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 1: when you get in these games, and at one point

203
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: tonight the game was really really close, and I'm thinking, like, god,

204
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: but Jets might be able to pull this off right

205
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: around halftime when they were winning fifteen to thirteen. But

206
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: then as the game goes, you realize these guys barely

207
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: know each other one some of them aren't even that

208
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: good anymore. This guy's had a great career Tyron Smith

209
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame level player. Stud No one that played

210
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: with them, that played against him, that knows the guy,

211
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 1: never heard a negative tourst thing said about him publicly privately.

212
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: It's not any good anymore. Like that's part of sports,

213
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 1: right You sign these big names. It's like this ain't

214
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, and you just look at the Jets and

215
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 1: you're like, this ain't gonna work. You go to an

216
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: interim coach who's never been a head coach, who was listen,

217
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: I really liked him when I was a kid, when

218
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: he was a player, and seems like an intense guy.

219
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: But now their defense sucks. I mean, their defense is

220
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: getting shredded these last two weeks. Why is that? Because

221
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: he can no longer just focus on the defense. He's

222
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: also got to be the head coach because that's his

223
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: new responsibility. You look over at the Steelers sideline. They've

224
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: had three fucking head coaches in like what feels like

225
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 1: one hundred years, and there's a hierarchy Mike and then

226
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 1: on down and everyone answers to him, and we all

227
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: know what we're gonna get. Tonight actually was kind of

228
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: cool because they were in the red zone. They were

229
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: like the five yard line. Tomlin looks at Arthur Smith

230
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: and you could tell he was saying something to him,

231
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: and even collins Or's like, I bet he's telling him

232
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: to run the ball. Turns out he was telling him

233
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: throw a fade to George Pickens. Didn't work, But clearly

234
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: that came from Tomlin. Why because he's the boss. This

235
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: is the knock on the Cowboys. You go, who's the boss? Well,

236
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: it's Jerry, but he's not coaching me. Can I just

237
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: circumvent him and go talk to the owner even though

238
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator is telling me one thing? These were

239
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: famous stories forever about the Raiders that if you ever

240
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: wanted anything changed schematically play wise, you just go around

241
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: the coach because I have to go right to Al Davis.

242
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: That's what happens with the Cowboys. That's kind of what's

243
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: happening now with the Jets. And it's a problem. It

244
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: does not work, and it definitely does not work when

245
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: your owner's Woody Johnson. And you saw to night an

246
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: organization that's buttoned up that wins. Now, they haven't won

247
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: a super Bowl in a long time, they haven't even

248
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 1: won a playoff game in a while, but they never

249
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 1: have a losing record, and now it looks like they're

250
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: headed toward one of their better seasons, you know, over

251
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: the last three or four years. Looks like they could

252
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: get to eleven or twelve wins. Defense is really good,

253
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: they're tough, they just they have an identity. Now we'll

254
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: see this Russell Wilson justin fields thing. Clearly they're going

255
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: to go with Russell moving forward. But I just thought

256
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: that that was culture and organizations on full display tonight

257
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: and it was an eye opening experience. And listen, I

258
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: was wrong about Mike Tomlin, right, But that's why you

259
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: know you when you get the head coach right, which

260
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: is the reason he's had the job for a long time.

261
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: You got to make tough decisions, and it's a lot

262
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: easier to make suggestions than decisions. It's why so many

263
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,479
Speaker 1: guys go from coordinator positions or position coaches to coordinators

264
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: and become overwhelmed because I've always been thought I have

265
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: the ideas. I've always made these suggestions, but I've never

266
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: had been the one that have to make the decision.

267
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: That was a bold ass move, It really was. I

268
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 1: don't think any of us are alone that we thought

269
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: he was insane early in the game when balls were

270
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 1: hitting the ground, not even remotely close to wide receivers. Meanwhile,

271
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: Rogers is kind of slinging it around like he's thirty four.

272
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: You're like, Mike, you are not going to be able

273
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: to beat Aaron Rodgers and now DeVante Adams in Breese Hall,

274
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: and he's thick in his head. Maybe this ain't going well.

275
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: Or let it play out, Let's take a deep breath.

276
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: We're not going to overreact to every single play like

277
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: Woody Johnson up there in the box, and over the

278
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: course of the game, it was clear it was the

279
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: right decision. Russell Wilson can no longer really run right

280
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: justin Fields, who's a great athlete. That part of the

281
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: game is done. They have no running element with the quarterback.

282
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: But as collins Worth mentioned on the broadcast, spreading the

283
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: ball down the on go routes and passes down the

284
00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: sideline opens up the offense that had not existed with Field.

285
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: And one thing Russell has always done and everyone knows

286
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: this is throw a good go ball, throw a great

287
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: lollipop throw. And tonight it still feels like he's a

288
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: little off. He's clearly nowhere near as good as he

289
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: once was, but he hit some of those passes. And

290
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: George Pickens was a major major factor tonight that he

291
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: had not become one or had become less and less

292
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: of one with Fields. And then when they were doing that,

293
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: it opened up the run game, and then they just

294
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: took complete control of the Jets, whose defense has got

295
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: to be one of the more fraudulent units going. But

296
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: like the Steelers can't win the AFC with Russell Wilson

297
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: at quarterback, I think depending on the matchup, it would

298
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: be tough for them to win a playoff game. But

299
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: as the game played on, it was clear like, Okay,

300
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: I get it, even though Albert Rereer tweeted he like

301
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: quoted one of Collins' tweets that was like, yeah, a

302
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: lot of people around Pittsburgh because I think and asked, like,

303
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: what did Russell look like? I said, practice, because if

304
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: he did, how'd you start him? And I just think

305
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 1: he went with his gut, And that's part of being

306
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: a leader. You got to make decisions where you don't

307
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: have all the information you go I just know what

308
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: is not working, and this is not gonna be good.

309
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: When we play better teams, We're gonna need to be

310
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: a little more potent on offense in the passing game

311
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: because if you can explode, if you have explosive passes,

312
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: then they have to honor. It opens to the line

313
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: of scrimmage and you can run the ball a little

314
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: bit better, which is clearly what happened. Their passing game

315
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: opened up the run game tonight. And listen, I'm not

316
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson hater in the sense of he's one of

317
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: the most electric players I've ever seen live, and I

318
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: thought he was remarkable in the prime of his career,

319
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: but the guy he's become doesn't really resemble that guy anymore.

320
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: But he's better than justin fields as a passer. Not

321
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: really debatable in a half. And this is a guy

322
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: who didn't play a game right all season long, missed

323
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: basically all of training camp, and was he benched the

324
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 1: last several games of the season when Sean Payton when

325
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: they didn't want to pay him the bonus. So props

326
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: to Mike Tomlin because sometimes, like sometimes in life, you

327
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 1: gotta rich shit right. Sometimes like yeah, things are going okay, Well,

328
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: if you want to take the next step, you gotta

329
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 1: roll the dice. And sometimes, you know, you roll a

330
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: situation and it blows up in your face. That's part

331
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: of being the leader, it's part of being the head coach.

332
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,959
Speaker 1: And sometimes you do it and you feel really good

333
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 1: about it. And now they probably even feel better about

334
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: their quarterback situation. The other thing they learned this week

335
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: is when the situation was playing out and clearly the

336
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: players do it is that feels warn't like a ten

337
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: year vet, how mature he was. He didn't go, you know,

338
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: because early in training camp he believed I should be

339
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback and then when he was asked Wednesday

340
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: or Thursday, he's straight upset. Like I could have done more,

341
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,959
Speaker 1: would have been better. I wasn't good enough. It's like, damn,

342
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: that was a really really impressive comment. And that goes

343
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: back to the culture thing, because what was he gonna say?

344
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: Cause that shit doesn't fly there. It's why when you

345
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: start acting like an idiot, unless you're Antonio Brown and

346
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: you're so damn good, that kind of got to deal

347
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 1: with you. But unless you're an elite All Pro player,

348
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 1: you kind of gotta either shape in or they kick

349
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: you out right. And Field has been in that culture

350
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: and he's a high character guy, no problems to begin with.

351
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: But it was like, God, he just talks like a Steeler.

352
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: He just blends right in. George Pickens is the one

353
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 1: wild card, but again he's by far their best wide receiver.

354
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: And I just I think back to the Jets, man,

355
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 1: I you just you can't fake it in football. And

356
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 1: I think when owners get involved, do you know who

357
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 1: the Jets really feel right now? Like right now a

358
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: little Dan Snyder mid two thousands Washington Redskins. That's kind

359
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: of the vibes thing get And I saw Gottlieb put

360
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: something out on social media and he said that I

361
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: think the Jets get an inordinate amount of coverage because

362
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 1: such a large percentage of media. People grow up in

363
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 1: Long Island are inclined to work or root for the

364
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: Jets growing up, and I think there's probably some truth

365
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: to that. I would just put New York as a whole.

366
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: Even if you grew up a Giants fan, you still

367
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 1: watch so much of the Jets as a kid. They're

368
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 1: just part of who you are to your core. And

369
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,120
Speaker 1: I also think just we are inclined to talk about

370
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 1: the bigger markets in New York, but they get like

371
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the Cowboys are a

372
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 1: good example of like we talked too much. They go

373
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 1: to the playoffs a lot. They're in a ton of

374
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 1: big games that matter. The Jets simply are not. Now

375
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: this year's a little different because Aaron Rodgers is their quarterback,

376
00:20:55,960 --> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 1: so they are a major conversation. But like they're a

377
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: lost or two away from no one gives a shit,

378
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: Like this is a joke, like this is an embarrassment,

379
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: and they get the Patriots next week, so they'll win

380
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: and be like everything's It's like that game couldn't mean

381
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 1: any less to me. It's irrelevant, It does not matter

382
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: so they could win that game seventy five to nothing.

383
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear one opinion coming out about it.

384
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 1: If you want to give some opinions about this game,

385
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: and you know, football wise, obviously, Davante opens a little

386
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: bit up for Garrett Wilson if you can get Breize

387
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: Hall a little involved. But their defense, their offenses isn't

388
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: that good. They scored fifteen points to Night, and the

389
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: Steelers defense isn't exactly the nineteen seventy five version of

390
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: the steel Curtain. They scored twenty points last week, and

391
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 1: seven of them want to fucking hail Mary. So I

392
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: think we have to acknowledge a couple of things, right

393
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: because we deal with all these other teams, Like are

394
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,400
Speaker 1: the Bills they have enough talent on defense, are explosive

395
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: enough on offense? Yeah, it comes to the Jets site

396
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: they are gonna figure it out. No, they're not. They

397
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: can't score points. They struggle to block for Aaron Rodgers.

398
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: Their defense can't stop anyone who has any talent on offense.

399
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: Their head coach has literally never been a head coach

400
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,479
Speaker 1: up until like seven, I don't know, twelve days ago.

401
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: Their offensive coordinator has been run out of multiple places.

402
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: Their superstar quarterback is forty years old and no longer

403
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: looks remotely close to what he once does or did. Yes,

404
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: Breeze Hall and Garrett Wilson are really talented. Quinn Williams

405
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: could play for my squad any day of the week.

406
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: But like Davante, just shows up gonna save the day.

407
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: That's how that worked for the Raiders. I love DeVante,

408
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: big fan Frisne State, go Dogs, but give me a break.

409
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 1: Hassan Reddick is just gonna show up. Let's go get

410
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 1: them guys. Bullshit, No, because all these teams, I watched

411
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 1: the Chiefs take it to the forty nine ers. That

412
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: Chiefs unit now has been together for years, years, especially

413
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: the defense. They've been playing together for a long period

414
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: of time. They all know everything about each other, their families,

415
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,719
Speaker 1: what they like to eat, what pisses them off, what

416
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 1: they think's funny. But they think how much time they've

417
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: spent around each other, OTA's training camp, playoff games, super

418
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: Bowl trips. I'm talking years. It's like a sod Reddick

419
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: should really help the defense, he should. The fuck's he

420
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 1: been doing? Where's he been? Do you think he's really

421
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 1: been training hard? Because one thing I heard this morning

422
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: on one of the shows, or maybe I read some

423
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 1: article that was like, now he's really sticking to his guns.

424
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 1: He believed in he believed he was getting screwed. So

425
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: if he believed he was getting screwed and he was

426
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 1: just fired by his agent, he probably thought they were

427
00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: never going to change the contract. So are we to

428
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 1: believe that he has just been training his every love

429
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: and ass off wherever he was, because that would seem

430
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 1: to be a little nuts to me. Now, he's a

431
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 1: really talented player, but you're just saying you just show

432
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,199
Speaker 1: up October twenty first, and I expect you just have

433
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: a huge impact. It's like plug and play. When does

434
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: it ever work like that, unless, like you're a kicker.

435
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: So I just I'm just tired of talking about this

436
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: team because there were force fed them, because they play

437
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: all these primetime games because of Rogers and the way

438
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: just they always feel like a headline story, and then

439
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: you watch them play, you're like the production does not

440
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,959
Speaker 1: outweigh like the importance that they feel on all of

441
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 1: our you know, football lives. And they are a loss.

442
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: Obviously they're gonna be the Patriots. They lose the Texans like,

443
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we're gonna ban them up until they show

444
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: any signs of life. Now, if they win the next

445
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: two games, which the text are clearly leaking a little oil,

446
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: looked a little off today, all of a sudden, it'd

447
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: be like, you know, they're four and five. They got

448
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,959
Speaker 1: a look at their schedule to get to ten wins,

449
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: which I think they would have to do to make

450
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Right, Steelers are gonna be in the playoffs. Obviously,

451
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: The Ravens are in the playoffs, so that's one division

452
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: winner and a wildcard team. Chiefs are in the playoffs.

453
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: You might want to google the Chargers schedule. They're winning

454
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: eleven plus, so that's another wildcard spot and a division winner.

455
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: Bills are in, and the Texans are in. Listen, Cincinnati's

456
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 1: definitely not dead that there's gonna be another team. I

457
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 1: think if we look around and the Denver Broncos are

458
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: four and three, so I think they would have to

459
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 1: be almost this team's going eight and two. Cannot see it.

460
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: I can't, like, would I be shocked if the Steelers

461
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 1: lost a couple games, of course not. But when you

462
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 1: build a five and two cushion, it's pretty easy to

463
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 1: get the ten wins because all you got to do

464
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: over the last ten games is go five and five.

465
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,239
Speaker 1: Where Tomin gets a lot of credit for making this

466
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: move because it worked. Speaking of coaching, like, it really

467
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: hit me this for some reason, I couldn't really sleep.

468
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: I get up probably at like six forty five in

469
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: the morning, the game had already started. Go out, make

470
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: some coffee, just kind of sit down, pour a big

471
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 1: Stanley and just watch the game for a little bit.

472
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: And at first you're like, God, well, the JAG's gonna

473
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: lose to the Patriots. And the answer was a hard no,

474
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: and the Jags ended up working them. And there was

475
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: a moment in that game late in the second half

476
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: when the Patriots were down nine points and they scored

477
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: a touchdown, or they scored a touchdown to make it nine,

478
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: so if they kick an extra point they would be

479
00:26:55,119 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: down eight, and Gerrod Mail went for two. He didn't

480
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: get it. And then I'm watching today the kind of watching.

481
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I had the game on a smaller TV,

482
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: the Commanders versus the Carolina Panthers, which was I don't

483
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: know the final score. If you told me to guess,

484
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:19,880
Speaker 1: I'd guess fifty to three. They absolutely, I mean ruined them.

485
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: And that's with Jayden Daniels getting injured and missing a

486
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: large portion of the game and Marcus Mariota came in

487
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: and it looked exactly like Jayden Daniels. Think about last year.

488
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: The Bears are not your normal number one overall drafting team, right.

489
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: They got that pick from Carolina, But the second team

490
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: was Washington and the third team with the Patriots. Both

491
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 1: teams sucked. One team drafts Jaden Daniels, the other team

492
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 1: draft Drake May. Now, in fairness, one team starts the guy.

493
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: The other guy goes with Jacobe Wessett for a little

494
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: bit and he sucks. But if you just watched the

495
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: two teams and even remove the records, right, you just go,

496
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: you know what Washington has going for him. I don't

497
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: think they're gonna probably win a playoff game. I'd still

498
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: bet against that because of the overall talent on their team.

499
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: They have been winning against bad teams and you deserve

500
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,919
Speaker 1: credit for that. We'll see as they played better teams.

501
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: But we saw him play the Ravens and it was

502
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 1: one sided. Though the Ravens are probably you know, right

503
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: there with the Chiefs the best teams in the league.

504
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: Think about the coaching for Washington, they got a real

505
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: head coach who you can nitpick him. In Atlanta, he took

506
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: them to the Super Bowl. Then he became the Dallas

507
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,959
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator and they had one of the best defense

508
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: in the league for like two and a half years.

509
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: They haired Kingsbury, who should be your head coach, but

510
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: he's an excellent coordinator. And you watch them play and

511
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: you just go, God, they're just well coached. Obviously, they

512
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: got a couple good players, and the rookie quarterbacks have

513
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: been fantastic, but they're not exactly rolling out superstars at

514
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: all these positions. They're depending on a lot of young players,

515
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: and you just watch them, you go, God, they're doing

516
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: a really, really good job. And then you watch the

517
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: Patriots and you go, do these people have any clue

518
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: what they're doing? Like, are we sure that Drake May

519
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: is in safe hands? Obviously they're head coach who was

520
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: an impressive player team captain, so was Antonio Pierce. Look

521
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: at the Raiders, they're a fucking joke. Dan Campbell was

522
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: a marginal backup. It doesn't matter how good you were

523
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: as a player, for being a coach. Look at Bill Belichick.

524
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 1: There's no way, in the prime of his career, at

525
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: whatever age you wanted to pick, he could have taken

526
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: one snap in Division one football, let alone in the NFL.

527
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: So what you did as a player in the NFL

528
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 1: means nothing for what you're gonna be as a head coach.

529
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: And you watch the Patriots and you go, ay, listen,

530
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,479
Speaker 1: I understand they don't have much talent. I'm not expecting

531
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: them to win many games, but can they ever do

532
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: impressive things? And then you watch the Commanders. I don't

533
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: think they have much talent, and I watch them every

534
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: week and you go, they're making Marcus Mariota look good.

535
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: This is why Brian Daball went Coach of the Year

536
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, because you're like, who is

537
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 1: on this Giant's team? All of a sudden, they won

538
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: nine games and then won a playoff game, one of

539
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: the most remarkable coaching jobs I've ever seen. Coaching matters,

540
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: and when you hire people and you hire the wrong people,

541
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 1: and you get guys that just are what feels like

542
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: in over their heads Antonio Pearson Droid Mail. Those guys

543
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: were stud players championship level players, team captains, heartbeat of

544
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: the team. But there's a big difference between doing that

545
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: with shoulder pads and a helmet on then being the

546
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: head coach of an NFL team week in week out.

547
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: Like Dan Quinn. I doubt he ever could have taken

548
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: a snap in the NFL in training camp with a threes,

549
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: let alone in the regular season game. But he knows

550
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: what he's doing as a coach. Why, because they're two

551
00:30:55,800 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: completely different things. They don't parallel each other at all.

552
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: So I just it's just crazy how much coaching matters.

553
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: Speaking of coaching, I think Shane Steichen's really good. He's

554
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: proven that over the years. He knows how to work

555
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: with quarterbacks. But I do think there are certain players

556
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,239
Speaker 1: that if they have the best coaching possible, if they

557
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: had the most talent around them possible, they were on

558
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: like dream teams, Pro Bowl rosters, they still wouldn't be

559
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,479
Speaker 1: good enough. This stuff's really really hard, and there are

560
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 1: all types of really really competitive industries that certain human

561
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: beings just aren't talented enough and get weeded out, not

562
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: because they don't care, not because they don't have the

563
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: intellect to succeeds. There not because of the effort or

564
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 1: the work ethic, just simply because whatever business, they don't

565
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: have the talent. You see this a lot in sports,

566
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: and you see this a lot in music, though with

567
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: technology you can fake it a little bit more in music,

568
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: but you definitely see it in pro sports because once

569
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 1: you get to the highest level, you get weeded out

570
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: if you're not good enough. And I'm watching Anthony Richardson

571
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: today going, I want to like this guy. Like everything

572
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: I heard coming out people all my friends in the

573
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: scouting world that are on like the good teams that

574
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: were never going to draft them, really like them, they said.

575
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: Once you meet him at the combine, everyone was so

576
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: impressed with them. Obviously the physical gifts speak for themselves.

577
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: But he's a terrible football player right now today when

578
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: you take Huntley who got injured in the game, and

579
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: Tim Boyle, who had one of the worst finishing passes

580
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: you'll ever see threw it out of bounds on fourth

581
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: down when fifteen of twenty six for one hundred and

582
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: fifteen yards, which I think if I just said Tyler Huntley,

583
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: Tim Boyle or your quarterbacks are going to play in

584
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: a game, it's going to be hard to be worse

585
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: than that in any NFL game all season long. Anthony

586
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 1: Richardson went ten for twenty four for one hundred and

587
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: thirty yards in the same game. I don't believe the

588
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: stats are actually as bad as what I witnessed. Somehow

589
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: they won. They got very lucky to win. I thought,

590
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: I understand why the culture playing him, they drafted him

591
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: forth overall, the only way he's going to improve, in

592
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 1: theory is to play through it. But there is a

593
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 1: chance that if you just keep rolling him out, he

594
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: will continue to be bad and he will never get better.

595
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: I think there is above a coin flip, well above

596
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: a fifty to fifty chance. This is who he kind

597
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: of is. In fairness to Shane Sichin during this game,

598
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: he kind of acknowledged it and treated him like a

599
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: running back. And this is a guy who gets injured

600
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: all the time. And it was clear like if he

601
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: gets injured, so be it. We can't in some must

602
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: passing situations have him throw the ball. If they truly

603
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: want to win on a weekly basis and try to

604
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: make the playoff, they would go with Joe Flacco. That

605
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 1: gives them the best chance to win if they just

606
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: keep rolling this out, which I like I said, I

607
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: understand they are just trying to make the guy that

608
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 1: they drafted really high work and they should just come

609
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 1: out and say that, which they won't because that's not

610
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: the way it works. But they don't need to because

611
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 1: we all know it because if you keep they could

612
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 1: barely beat the Miami Dolphins, who without Tua tonguea Iiloa

613
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: is just easily one of the worst teams in the NFL.

614
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: Who played Snoop Huntley, who's you know, wasn't bad for

615
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: the Ravens, but you watch them day's pretty terrible, and

616
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 1: Tim Boyle, who's even worse, and they could barely win

617
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 1: that game. I mean it was ten to ten going

618
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: down the stretch of the fourth quarter. That's an embarrassing win.

619
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: You thought the Eagles against the Browns was bad. This

620
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: is worse. This is worse. It really is. And I

621
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 1: think by the end of the season they might have

622
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: to acknowledge not the we picked the wrong guy because

623
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: they picked it knowing what they were getting into. A

624
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,280
Speaker 1: major project, a great unknown, we're swinging for the fences.

625
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna try to coach him up. But this guy

626
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: might just be someone that you can't coach up. He's

627
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: just not accurate enough. He does not have the touch.

628
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: He just can't make the throws like every once in

629
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: a while. Tonight even Russell Wilson saw a couple of

630
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: nice little touch throws. Saw some bad ones, but he

631
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: also some good ones, like he has it in there.

632
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: Obviously Rogers has it. Any starting quarterback for a long

633
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: period of time has to have some of that. No

634
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 1: one cares. You can't throw one hundred miles an hour

635
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,359
Speaker 1: on every single pass, and that's what it feels like.

636
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: So Colts fans, it's wild ride sucks because you know, like,

637
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 1: would we have won this game like thirty to ten

638
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: if Joe Flacco is playing And the answer is probably yes. Okay.

639
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 1: One of the big stories today was Deshaun Watson. I

640
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: was watching the game. He goes to, you know, playing

641
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: his foot. You immediately see that little Achilles boop over

642
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: obvious ripped Achilles carded off the field. Now, I got

643
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 1: about all the games going on at one so I

644
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 1: can only listen to the volume on one game. So

645
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: in the morning slate, I was basically going back between

646
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: the Lions Vikings game and the Packer Houston game. Early on,

647
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 1: I went a little Eagles Giants, but as that game

648
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: got away, I didn't listen to that game, so it

649
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 1: was basically I just listened to two volume. Because I

650
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: can't listen to three volumes at once. I just listened

651
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 1: to one volume, so I wasn't listening to anything. So

652
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 1: I see him get card off the field, the team

653
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: comes up, don't really think anything of it. As the

654
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 1: day goes on, everything starts going viral about how they

655
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 1: boot him off the field, like, yeah, not surprising, not surprising,

656
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: and then all the comments come out. Jamis went on, Jamis.

657
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 1: If you watch Jamis's two minute, kind of like a

658
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: rant slash soliloquy slash diet tribe. I didn't even know

659
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: how to describe it. It feels like he's putting on

660
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: a skit or like acting, you know, like going to

661
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: one of those reads to try to be an actor

662
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 1: for a television show. That's what he feels like. He's

663
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 1: he's really playing the character. But Miles Garrett, who was

664
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 1: just being Miles Garrett in the Price conference, was pretty

665
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 1: pissed off and he said a lot of things, and

666
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,080
Speaker 1: one of the comments that he had was the Deshaun

667
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 1: has been a model citizen throughout his college career and

668
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: most he used the words not mine most of his

669
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 1: professional career. It's hard not to laugh when he said

670
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: and most of his professional career. I just think this

671
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: because I think it's most players, and I will see

672
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: the media takes. There are gonna be some that are

673
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 1: crushing the fans because they love to now well, I

674
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,399
Speaker 1: think opinions is gonna be all of it, the map

675
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: on this, but I know this. There is not another

676
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: player in that game, on the Browns or on the Bengals.

677
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 1: Coaches sidelined people, the chain gang, any human that could

678
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: have got a leg shattered, that could have popped, an achilles,

679
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: that could have been knocked out, that if they would

680
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: have gone off the field on a cart and given

681
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 1: a thumbs up, from Jamar Chase to Joe Burrow, to

682
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: the Bengals, you name it. There's not another human that

683
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: that crowd, like any crowd, would have given a standing

684
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 1: ovation to. But this fan base, they traded for this guy,

685
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: and they gave a historic amount of money and he

686
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:46,240
Speaker 1: was immediately suspended for eleven games for the massage therapists.

687
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 1: I think the numbers up to twenty eight total. So

688
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 1: we immediately get this car. I'm just putting myself in

689
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,919
Speaker 1: a Browns fan shoes. We immediately get this quarterback who's

690
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: been good for the Texans that he's immediately suspended, and

691
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: our owner and our front office fudge the contract because

692
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,800
Speaker 1: we knew it was coming. We only paid him a

693
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: million bucks eleven games. We've seen guys get in trouble,

694
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: see guys get you know, three, four whatever. Eleven games,

695
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: which is kind of a weird number, but it's a lot.

696
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 1: That's a fucking massive number. So all of a sudden,

697
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: the eleven games, all this stuff going off the field.

698
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: So it's like, okay, we every single person in that

699
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 1: stadium thinks the guy's a scumback. But listen, you watch sports,

700
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: you root for teams long enough, you root for some scumbacks,

701
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 1: so it's like, hey, you're good. Whatever. Well then this

702
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 1: guy starts playing and he's the opposite of good. He's atrocious. Statistically,

703
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 1: he's legitimately one of the worst quarterbacks in the history

704
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: of the NFL. This season he was, and I would

705
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 1: say over the course of those couple games or six

706
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: games when he came back, and then last year before

707
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: he got injured. It couldn't have been going much worse.

708
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 1: So it's like, wait, I'm a Browns fan. I've been

709
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:56,839
Speaker 1: watching this team from my whole life. Let's just put

710
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: me in those shoes. I'm forty years old. I've seen

711
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 1: a lot of bad foot I've rooted for a lot

712
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 1: of teams that have lost. But you know what, We've

713
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,800
Speaker 1: had guys that find out he's a root for Nick Chubb,

714
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:10,760
Speaker 1: stud Joe Thomas over the years, badass right now, Miles

715
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 1: Garrett Baller, want that guy on my squad, But I'm

716
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: supposed to just like this guy. Obviously, no one in

717
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 1: that city wants that guy on their team. They're stuck

718
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: with him. Then he gets injured, which actually makes it

719
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: worse because any of these potential like could we get

720
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: rid of them and includes them draft picks? That guy

721
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: is yours. It is over careers, a rap, like this

722
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,720
Speaker 1: thing's done. But I just don't blame them for booing them.

723
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 1: I don't think they're booing them. One he wasn't gonna die,

724
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: fucking tore his achilles, He'll be fine. They're booing the situation.

725
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 1: Do you know who they were really booing? The owner

726
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 1: that was an fu to the owner for making the

727
00:40:55,600 --> 00:41:00,040
Speaker 1: fans watch a guy that every single person is the

728
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 1: same opinion of, which isn't good from a character standpoint.

729
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 1: Who is one of the worst players. And this is

730
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 1: a team who has watched crappy quarterbacks. They're not expecting

731
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 1: Rogers are farv to come running out that tunnel for

732
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: the Browns. But for two hundred and thirty million, just

733
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: a functional starter would have been great. And this guy

734
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: was awful, bad guy, worst player, And I just I

735
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 1: just don't think it's very shocking, and anyone criticizing them, Like,

736
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:32,320
Speaker 1: I just don't think any other player, any other person

737
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: in the entire league, in any stadium, is getting booed

738
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: in that situation except him. Here's also what I think.

739
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,920
Speaker 1: I think you could put him in another stadium. I

740
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 1: think he probably gets booed there too. I actually feel

741
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 1: pretty confident he gets booed in any other stadium. So

742
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: it's like, this is a DeShawn Watson thing, not a

743
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 1: fan thing, not a city thing, And it's because of

744
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 1: the owner, because the only reason that he's on the

745
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,359
Speaker 1: team is because the owner was willing to give him

746
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 1: that contract. So he pops his achilles. Obviously, the season's over.

747
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 1: I doubt we ever see him play another snap for

748
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 1: the Browns. He absolutely it was like the equivalent of

749
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 1: the Latanza. Heis absolutely robbed the Browns. I mean, so

750
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 1: it's an all time It's Hyghway robbery, right. It's just

751
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 1: props to will Getta his agent because they just they

752
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 1: bent over the Browns and they took all the money.

753
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: Then they never thought twice about giving any of it back,

754
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,200
Speaker 1: no matter how many balls they threw to the other team,

755
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 1: no matter how many balls skipped the grounds, no matter

756
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 1: how many lawsuits came their way, It's all guaranteed. Baby.

757
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 1: A couple other quick things. It's crazy when Gino Smith

758
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 1: plays well. When Gino Smith plays well, which he never

759
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: does against the forty nine ers, but then he plays

760
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: other teams like today, you just watching him make some throws,

761
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: You're like, God, this guy, he's just all over the map.

762
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 1: He's got to be a frustrating player to coach because

763
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: they are so explosive on offense. Kenth Walker is such

764
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: a good multi dimensional player. He's a great running back.

765
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 1: He can catch the ball. I mean, DK, I think

766
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,880
Speaker 1: he's got to be one of the most unique freaks

767
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: in the history of the NFL. The size, the speed,

768
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: the power, the athleticism. He's just an all time athletic outlier.

769
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,439
Speaker 1: And you watch him today. I know he got dinged

770
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 1: up towards the end, but he made a catch in

771
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: the middle of the game where he goes up, you know,

772
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: ahead of a dB. It's like, what a monster. And

773
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,800
Speaker 1: I think their coaching staff's really good. Now with the

774
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 1: Niners losing, they're in first place, but it kind of

775
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: just hit with Gino plays well. Their coaching staff's good,

776
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: their talent's good. They can beat a lot of teams.

777
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 1: And you leave that game going, is it Land any good?

778
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: Is it Land any good? Listen, you lose some games.

779
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,879
Speaker 1: They got worked in that game and you look back,

780
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: it's earlier in the season. Me and Stucky talked about

781
00:43:56,000 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: this on Thursday. Their wreck could easily be the other

782
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 1: way right now. I mean easily. So I'm not I

783
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: still like some of the players on their team, and

784
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not just selling all my kirk oh

785
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: cousins stock, but they got worked today. And last but

786
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 1: not least, it's got to be a good feeling as

787
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: a GM to make a trade. And when you've got

788
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,280
Speaker 1: a good teams. It's just easier to be aggressive with trade,

789
00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 1: so it's not it probably wasn't that difficult for Brandon

790
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: Bean to trade for a Mari. But it's still like,

791
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,720
Speaker 1: you hope it works right. You want to look good,

792
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 1: you want the guy to be productive, and then you

793
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,719
Speaker 1: get him and you look up and he scores a

794
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: touchdown and on the play when you watch it in

795
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,880
Speaker 1: slow motion, he did not know what he was doing.

796
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,919
Speaker 1: He had to look at key On Coleman. Coleman did

797
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 1: like a he tried to do like a sneaky little

798
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: like run a post. You know DB's are standing right

799
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: there and it didn't even matter. Ran right to the goalpost.

800
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 1: Touchdown josh Amari Cooper. So props to Brandon Bean. Props

801
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 1: the Bills make a trade media touchdown. Thanks for listening, everybody.

802
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,959
Speaker 1: I will see you, well, I won't see you because

803
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 1: I can't see you. You'll probably hear me Tuesday morning
