0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 2>He also wanted to shout out his uncle who lives

0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:30.320
<v Speaker 2>in Joplin. What of Joplin representation here? Joplin, of course

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:31.840
<v Speaker 2>has a hot bed Yeah, it sure is.

0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Yep. They think about the Kingdom every day in Joplin.

0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:36.160
<v Speaker 2>Competing with Springfield to be the mecca.

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:38.919
<v Speaker 1>They are right there battle down in southwest Missouri.

0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 2>And my last one I heard from Craig who proudly

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:45.440
<v Speaker 2>represents the Kingdom where he works in Moline, Illinois and

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 2>at home in Bettendorf, Iowa in the Crag Cities. Yup,

0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 2>and Craig had a trivia question for you.

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 1>Okay, John Deere, by the way, in Moline, Illinois.

0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 2>He works for them. He works at their world head quarters.

0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:59.200
<v Speaker 1>Actually, I think everybody that lives in Moline, Illinois works

0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:00.640
<v Speaker 1>for John Deere. Way or another.

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Here's this trivia question for you. So what was the

0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:08.280
<v Speaker 2>first high school football game played at Arrowhead m Yeah,

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.200
<v Speaker 2>this would be a good one for you to file away.

0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:12.840
<v Speaker 1>But it has to do with the Quad Cities or no, no,

0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:13.920
<v Speaker 1>not not related.

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Think he just happens to know it and was curious

0:03:15.760 --> 0:03:16.600
<v Speaker 2>if you could guess it.

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Cool. I would have to guess, But it has to

0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>be something like a Kansas versus Missouri game. It's got

0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 1>to be Rockhurst on the Kansas on the Missouri side

0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:28.040
<v Speaker 1>against I don't know me Ash on the Kansas.

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Sid Well it says that he according to Craig, it

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 2>was the Missouri semi finals in nineteen seventy two. I

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 2>think these are both Missouri schools. Do you want to guess?

0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 1>No, I got no clue.

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Southwest defeated oak Park. Wow, oak Park's on the Missouri side, right.

0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:45.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, North North, the Northmandy North and the North

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Women not yeah, the oak Park Northman and it was

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:50.520
<v Speaker 1>against Center of Central Central.

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Southwest Southwest Southwest defeated oak Park.

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that would have been the first year of Varahead too.

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.920
<v Speaker 1>It's nineteen seventy two. So yeah, some trivia. So the

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>more you know, thanks Craig, Well, thanks to the Quad

0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Cities and John Deere for high School Geha Field at

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Arrowhead and Trivia. Yep, that's awesome. Something happened. I was

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 1>in Topeka yesterday on some other business matters and I

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:15.120
<v Speaker 1>passed a eighteen wheeler and it was the most awesome

0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:18.560
<v Speaker 1>cab I've ever seen. It had the logos of all

0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the Super Bowls. This was from Warsaw, Missouri. It's like this.

0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:24.919
<v Speaker 1>It was into I think he's an independent trucker like

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>hard Wick or hard Wick or somebody can they'll they'll

0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:30.880
<v Speaker 1>follow up on this. But I almost like just stared

0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 1>at it, going at seventy five miles an hour down

0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:36.800
<v Speaker 1>the freeway of looking at like it was the coolest

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 1>painted Chiefs Kingdom truck.

0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 2>Interesting.

0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 1>We've got to get a photo of this. We got

0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 1>to put it on our social because it's so cool,

0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and I'll get some more information on it. But I

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 1>just sit there and was like, well, wow, this is awesome.

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Now he does not have the Super Bowl fifty eight

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 1>logo up yet, but he's got four and fifty four

0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:55.719
<v Speaker 1>and fifty seven. It's really cool in the lombardies and

0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 1>it's like something like rolling through the Kingdom. It's this

0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:03.279
<v Speaker 1>cool paint job of this independent truck caller. So it's

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 1>I know we're gonna find more about this cat, but

0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:07.719
<v Speaker 1>it was it was awesome.

0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 2>You know what that reminds me of is a few

0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:13.280
<v Speaker 2>episodes ago, we had like the three Super Bowl Championship

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 2>hats out and we talk about those three most recent

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:19.040
<v Speaker 2>ones because they happened so recently, But I need some

0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl four gear, like a Super Bowl four champion hat.

0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Did they make hats back then when you won the

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:25.559
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl?

0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 1>If they did with the old mesh kind right, they

0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:30.039
<v Speaker 1>had the cloth in front and then the mesh back round,

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:34.040
<v Speaker 1>that would be yeah, you'll see him now. Hank didn't

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:36.599
<v Speaker 1>wear them as much he did at camp. You'll see

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.880
<v Speaker 1>these pictures of Hank with the Mesh three quarterback, right. Yeah,

0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>and they made a comeback not that long ago, but

0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:44.440
<v Speaker 1>that'd be the hat you'd have to get with kind

0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:48.719
<v Speaker 1>of the football. And there's some logos with some throwback shirts.

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:50.640
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, definitely we got to get some shirts and

0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:53.279
<v Speaker 1>hats from Super Bowl four and put them on display.

0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:55.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, speaking of that, did you see the new trophy

0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:56.760
<v Speaker 2>case in the lobby.

0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:57.679
<v Speaker 1>As well it's the best.

0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, for those that don't. Now, there's a trophy case

0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:03.360
<v Speaker 2>in the lobby here at the facility, and it had

0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 2>been outgrown because of all the success lately, because I

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:09.000
<v Speaker 2>think it only had maybe two Lombardies in it and

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:12.679
<v Speaker 2>then maybe one AOC Championship trophy. Now it has all

0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:16.080
<v Speaker 2>four Lamar Hunt Trophies and all four Lombardies in there.

0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 2>It looks pretty great. Need to add some more space though.

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:21.840
<v Speaker 1>But if you're listing or in or watching, don't just

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of waltz in here and say, hey, where is

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 1>it that that's not gonna work.

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Don't do that.

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah he'll be, Yeah, he'll be. We'll be posting bond

0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:33.400
<v Speaker 1>or someone will for you. But you know what, it's

0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:36.640
<v Speaker 1>interesting full disclosure here. When we had the celebration at

0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Union Station on the stage, and you remember when Brett

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.120

<v Speaker 1>like late at night, right, dang, what's what's w you want?

0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:54.520

0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:56.760
<v Speaker 1>over and leave space. I love it because that was

0:06:56.800 --> 0:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>his thesis. Yeah, remember like, hey, this looks good for

0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:03.000
<v Speaker 1>the next one. Uh huh, get the fifth one. But

0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:05.280
<v Speaker 1>that was so BV and it was it was awesome.

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, there you go. You mentioned super Bowl four.

0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Now we of course lost super Bowl one and then

0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 1>we lost super Bowl fifty five, but super Bowl one

0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.600
<v Speaker 1>comes into play here as we kind of start this

0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 1>episode because we're yes, we're talking about the second Wave,

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.840
<v Speaker 1>but we also got a lot of Hollywood talk. Yep.

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:29.680
<v Speaker 1>Now the Chiefs, Okay, let's start. The Coach Reid actually

0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:32.880
<v Speaker 1>has ties to Hollywood. His father was worked in Hollywood, right,

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 1>He was an artist, he made sets. And even though

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Coach went to John Marshall High School, which is not

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.440
<v Speaker 1>in Hollywood, I think they played Hollywood in sports, but

0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 1>his dad worked on in Hollywood. So this is a

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit if Coach Red came to us from Hollywood,

0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:50.320
<v Speaker 1>but the Chiefs have also gone to Hollywood. There was

0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.640
<v Speaker 1>a guy you ever heard of, Fred Williamson, Fred the

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Hammer Williamson.

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Sounds kind of familiar, but I couldn't tell you much

0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 2>about him.

0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:57.920
<v Speaker 1>This needs to be one of your like go down

0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.640
<v Speaker 1>to the rabbit holes. Fred the Hammer Wiamson was a

0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.360
<v Speaker 1>cornerback for the Chiefs and played in Super Bowl One.

0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 1>And he was way out of his time because he

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 1>could really talk smack and he was talking about knocking

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 1>out all the Packer receivers. He's and he had this

0:08:10.520 --> 0:08:11.679
<v Speaker 1>forearm which is illegal.

0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Now Max McGee is looking at him like he was

0:08:14.520 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 2>kind of like boy dollar, Max mczeery and to be gone.

0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:21.240
<v Speaker 1>And so Fred was somewhat of a sanguine character and

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>really good athlete. And ironically he got knocked out of

0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl one. But and the Packers you can see

0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:31.000
<v Speaker 1>it on NFL films, were kind of they were going

0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>after Fred. But Fred, after his career ended with the

0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City Chiefs, became an actor and I bet I

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 1>was counting like his filmography. I think he was in

0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>like either he was in close to a one hundred

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:45.400
<v Speaker 1>and twenty five films.

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's over the place if you research Fred Williamson,

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Fred the Hammer Williamson. Now, my favorite role of Fred

0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:58.319
<v Speaker 1>the Hammer Williamson was the police captain in startskinin Hutch.

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.720
<v Speaker 1>You remember the parody of Starkin Hutch. Sure, yeah, Yeah,

0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:02.719
<v Speaker 1>he's the guy of.

0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:06.560
<v Speaker 2>And so he had like big roles. He wasn't just

0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:07.040
<v Speaker 2>like an extra.

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no, this guy's got big roles. Go back

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.400
<v Speaker 1>and go back and check this guy out. Fred Williamson

0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:16.800
<v Speaker 1>was a deal and he's awesome. It starts Get Huch right,

0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:21.959
<v Speaker 1>so he's gonna anyway, watch it. It's not the TV

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:25.120
<v Speaker 1>starts Gin Hutch. It's the Ben Stiller Owen Wilson remix,

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.760
<v Speaker 1>which is hilarious. It's one of my favorite movies. There's

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.079
<v Speaker 1>so many awesome lines in it. But Fred the Hammer

0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Williamson has a prominent role in that. He was in

0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl one with the Chiefs and then John Amos

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:39.319
<v Speaker 1>was a famous actor and he got cut by the Chiefs. Actually,

0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I think he lasted a couple of days and Stram goes,

0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.000
<v Speaker 1>you want to play football, but you're not a football

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:48.040
<v Speaker 1>player or something. But anyway, Johnny Amos became very well

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:51.560
<v Speaker 1>known in both film and television and he wanted to

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:54.040
<v Speaker 1>be a Chief but didn't last very long. So there

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.640
<v Speaker 1>was some moves of the Chiefs going to Hollywood. For sure,

0:09:57.720 --> 0:10:00.719
<v Speaker 1>Fred the Hammer Williamson would be the valedictorian. That discussion.

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.719
<v Speaker 1>But now Hollywood comes to the Chiefs and here we go.

0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 1>We prior to Gus Johnson give him the Hollywood name.

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:12.560
<v Speaker 1>He was Marquise Brown, but he is Hollywood Brown. He

0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:15.439
<v Speaker 1>wants to be known as Hollywood Brown. Number one draft

0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:19.040
<v Speaker 1>pick of the Ravens in twenty nineteen, he requested a trade.

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:21.160
<v Speaker 1>He went to the Arizona Cardinals. But now he's a

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City chief. Hollywood, Florida is his hometown. Hence the

0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.640
<v Speaker 1>nickname was a big play against k State when Gus

0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Johnson didn't know how to pronounce is this Marquise, Marquis

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:34.000
<v Speaker 1>or Marcus, so he just calls him Hollywood and it's stuck.

0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 1>But what do you think Hollywood Brown is now in

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 1>the Chiefs Kingdom?

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, first of all, I think we deserve some credit

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:42.720
<v Speaker 2>for this happening because our last episode was recorded on

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:46.200
<v Speaker 2>Thursday morning, and we mentioned that we're only going to

0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 2>talk about what has happened already. I'm sure something new

0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:51.400
<v Speaker 2>will happen as soon as we record this, and what

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.120
<v Speaker 2>do you know, Thursday night, there are are reports out

0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:56.480
<v Speaker 2>there that we signed Hollywood Brown, and Mitch and I

0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 2>are like ecstatic about it, super excited, but it's also like,

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:02.880
<v Speaker 2>of course, this happens hours after we record our episode,

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 2>and we live in a weird world where we can't

0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.319
<v Speaker 2>comment on things until they're official, so we couldn't even

0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:11.959
<v Speaker 2>talk about it until what Monday. But yeah, our episode

0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.200
<v Speaker 2>goes out on Friday. Don't even mention Hollywood Brown. So

0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:16.600
<v Speaker 2>if we had not recorded, well, we were testing Thursday night.

0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:19.440
<v Speaker 2>At least we gave the disclaimer exactly. But if we

0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:21.560
<v Speaker 2>had not talked about if we had not done our

0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 2>show on Thursday, who knows if we would have signed anybody.

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.440
<v Speaker 2>We helped create that energy in the universe. But yeah,

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.960
<v Speaker 2>I love it. I mean Hollywood Brown. Let's talk about him.

0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:33.600
<v Speaker 2>Five foot nine, one hundred and eighty pounds with great speed.

0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Look at his pro day back in two thousand and

0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:39.680
<v Speaker 2>nineteen eighteen. I ran a four to two seven, so

0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:43.160
<v Speaker 2>great speed. But you look at his size and kind

0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:46.160
<v Speaker 2>of his makeup as a player. If you've never watched

0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:47.840
<v Speaker 2>him before, you might think, Okay, that's a guy that

0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:50.480
<v Speaker 2>plays just the slot, but not the case. It's actually

0:11:50.559 --> 0:11:54.280
<v Speaker 2>kind of interesting. Hollywood Brown in his career has primarily

0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.800
<v Speaker 2>been an outside wide receiver, so it says a lot

0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:58.839
<v Speaker 2>about his talent, his skill level and what he can

0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 2>do that. He has the body type of a guy

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:03.160
<v Speaker 2>you might think might just be a slot receiver, but

0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:05.880
<v Speaker 2>he's actually not that he's a complete receiver. He has

0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.480
<v Speaker 2>eight hundred and eighty four career snaps split out wide

0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.120
<v Speaker 2>against oftentimes a team's top corner, then nine hundred and

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty nine snaps out of the slot in his career.

0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:18.959
<v Speaker 2>He can stretch the field vertically. We all know that

0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:21.800
<v Speaker 2>that deep threat with that speed and what he can

0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.080
<v Speaker 2>do in terms of getting down the field quickly, but

0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:27.600
<v Speaker 2>he also is really effective making plays on those short

0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:30.320
<v Speaker 2>underneath routs. And look back at his best season in

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.880
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty one, his thousand yard campaign with the Ravens.

0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:36.719
<v Speaker 2>He had ninety one catches that year, well sixty nine

0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:39.520
<v Speaker 2>of them occurred either behind the line of scrimmage or

0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:42.680
<v Speaker 2>within nine yards of the line of scrimmage, and he

0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:45.240
<v Speaker 2>had more than three hundred yards after the catch on

0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:48.280
<v Speaker 2>those plays. So this is a guy that sure is

0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.319
<v Speaker 2>a deep threat that's important can take the top off

0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:52.760
<v Speaker 2>the defense back in twenty twenty one, he had four

0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.240
<v Speaker 2>touchdown grabs of more than twenty yards, But he can

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:59.480
<v Speaker 2>also make plays in space and make guys miss underneath,

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.880
<v Speaker 2>which is very exciting. I think he's really, in a

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.360
<v Speaker 2>lot of ways the prototypical, perfect kind of wide receiver

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:05.840
<v Speaker 2>for what Coach Reed wants to do.

0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:09.880
<v Speaker 1>A couple things caught my eye and we've played against him.

0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:12.280
<v Speaker 1>He had a buck over a buck of receiving in

0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:15.319
<v Speaker 1>the twenty one game in Baltimore where we had the

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:17.880
<v Speaker 1>late fumble. We're on the way to win the game,

0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.559
<v Speaker 1>we lose thirty six thirty five. But a couple of

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:22.959
<v Speaker 1>things when you do the deep drive into Hollywood Brown

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.160
<v Speaker 1>that gets you excited. One in that twenty one year,

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 1>and the twenty one year is the one that pops

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:29.160
<v Speaker 1>off the surface, right. He had a four digit year

0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:33.320
<v Speaker 1>receiving yards, and he had a full year with Lamar Jackson,

0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>but he had twenty three targets on third and eight

0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:40.440
<v Speaker 1>plus that year. He had fourteen catches of those twenty

0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:43.480
<v Speaker 1>three for first downs. They're only two players better in

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the NFL than Hollywood Brown in that category, and those

0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:50.560
<v Speaker 1>weren't all just go routes. Okay, So that tells you

0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:54.480
<v Speaker 1>a reliable third down receiver third and eight plus, which

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.400
<v Speaker 1>has been a little bit of a void the last

0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.560
<v Speaker 1>two years. That's one that catches your eye most recent history.

0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:02.640
<v Speaker 1>And of course Arizona went through a lot of quarterback

0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:06.240
<v Speaker 1>injuries and Kyler Murray's missed so much time. But last year,

0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:08.719
<v Speaker 1>three goal to go targets for Hollywood Brown with the

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Arizona Cardinals and three touchdowns. Now to compare that, think

0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:15.559
<v Speaker 1>of Rashie Rice, he had four gold to go targets,

0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:17.839
<v Speaker 1>he had four touchdowns. Think of the game in Germany, right,

0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:23.040
<v Speaker 1>But Hollywood had three goal to go targets and three touchdowns.

0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:27.960
<v Speaker 1>So this is complementing your point, meaning, and this is

0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.800
<v Speaker 1>what Hollywood will have to do in this offense. Anybody

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:33.360
<v Speaker 1>that has a wr by your name in this Andy

0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Reid Patrick Mahomes offense must be able to at some

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.480
<v Speaker 1>point and as soon as you can get there, the

0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:43.040
<v Speaker 1>better to be able to be a slot receiver, inside

0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:47.520
<v Speaker 1>receiver on trips, X receiver, Z receiver, a slot motion receiver,

0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>jets fake jets. That's how he won Super Bowl fifty eight.

0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:55.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, so it looks like the fact that Hollywood

0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 1>Brown can play all of those roles, and statistically there

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:01.920
<v Speaker 1>have been times he has done exactly that should be

0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:05.840
<v Speaker 1>the one thing that should get the Chief Kingdom most excited.

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:07.840
<v Speaker 2>And this is a player who I don't think has

0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:10.960
<v Speaker 2>been fully unlocked yet. To your point, he even mentioned

0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:13.040
<v Speaker 2>as such in his press conference where he thinks he's

0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:15.320
<v Speaker 2>shown a lot of things in the NFL, but he

0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:17.920
<v Speaker 2>has a chance to really put it all together here

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:21.400
<v Speaker 2>because of the circumstances and the environment. And think about

0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:25.040
<v Speaker 2>his time in Baltimore. So really good player in Baltimore,

0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:28.240
<v Speaker 2>had that great twenty twenty one season, notably, but that

0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:31.040
<v Speaker 2>was the Ravens offense that was built around running the football.

0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:34.080
<v Speaker 2>They ranked thirtieth in the NFL and net passing yards

0:15:34.120 --> 0:15:36.760
<v Speaker 2>per game during his three years there, and even in

0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:40.000
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty one, they were thirteenth in the NFL in

0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 2>net passing yards per game, easily the highest ranking they

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.600
<v Speaker 2>had during that three year stretch. The Ravens didn't throw

0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:48.600
<v Speaker 2>the football a whole lot. They're built around running the football,

0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 2>and he still put up good numbers there. And then,

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 2>like you said, in Arizona, I mean, the idea there

0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:55.640
<v Speaker 2>was to pair him back with Kyler Murray, who he

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.640
<v Speaker 2>played with in college. But Kyler was hurt for a

0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.280
<v Speaker 2>good part of both of those seasons, so kind of

0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:04.040
<v Speaker 2>a weird situation quarterback wise in Arizona, and he still

0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:06.240
<v Speaker 2>put his best foot forward. I think during his two

0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 2>years there he led the Cardinals and catches, receiving yards

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.040
<v Speaker 2>and receiving touchdowns when you combine his two seasons, So

0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:16.120
<v Speaker 2>a really productive player despite some tough circumstances in both places.

0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:19.120
<v Speaker 2>And this is the perfect circumstance for him. Come to

0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Kansas City, play for coach Red and play with the

0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:24.520
<v Speaker 2>best quarterback in the NFL in a pass centric offense.

0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:27.280
<v Speaker 1>And he's the first player in NFL history to have

0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:30.040
<v Speaker 1>two forty plus yard touchdowns in his very first game.

0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 1>Going back to that twenty nineteen season when he was

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:36.920
<v Speaker 1>the first round draft pick of the Baltimore Ravens.

0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:38.800
<v Speaker 2>But rist receiver taken two, I believe in.

0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:40.800
<v Speaker 1>The twenty fifth pick. I think, yeah, sure it was.

0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:43.800
<v Speaker 1>And that was the McCole Hardman Draft, and what happened

0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:46.800
<v Speaker 1>that was weird. That was a weird night in the

0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs kingdom from a standpoint of what happened before the draft.

0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 1>But that's another matter. Okay, So Hollywood Brown is now

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.680
<v Speaker 1>a Chief, Tommy Townsend's now at Texan makes it easy.

0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:58.480
<v Speaker 1>He wants number five. Give him number five. We're ready

0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:02.360
<v Speaker 1>to roll and let him ruin. But here's the word

0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:06.160
<v Speaker 1>we'd give to Hollywood is okay, your life will start

0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:09.680
<v Speaker 1>with pats OTAs aka the PoTA I call him Pat's

0:17:09.720 --> 0:17:12.960
<v Speaker 1>OTA's on his own that leads you into the chiefs OTAs,

0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:15.879
<v Speaker 1>which I would guess would be about as hard as

0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:18.239
<v Speaker 1>you worked at camp with the Arizona Cardinals. And then

0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:21.399
<v Speaker 1>when you hit Saint Joseph, be ready to rock because

0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.120
<v Speaker 1>when coach, we've seen this. We saw this with Rice

0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:26.760
<v Speaker 1>last year, we've seen it with Juju, We've seen it

0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:30.040
<v Speaker 1>with others who joined the group, and hey, you're gonna

0:17:30.040 --> 0:17:32.120
<v Speaker 1>get CALC one, two and three in the first semester.

0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:35.840
<v Speaker 1>So just get ready because if you buy in, just

0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:39.040
<v Speaker 1>like Rashie did last year, you'll realize, wait a minute,

0:17:39.080 --> 0:17:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I can do things in a quick fashion that I

0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:46.159
<v Speaker 1>wasn't even sure I could do. So to get full bloom,

0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:49.239
<v Speaker 1>as you've alluded to with Hollywood, Brown, it's up now

0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:53.159
<v Speaker 1>to Hollywood. Just lock in, know every position, do it

0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:55.320
<v Speaker 1>as fast as you can, and get on the fast

0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:57.439
<v Speaker 1>track and be ready to work. Because the Chiefs were

0:17:57.440 --> 0:17:58.480
<v Speaker 1>winning because they were.

0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Well And did you see that Patrick's Instagram that they're

0:18:01.680 --> 0:18:04.359
<v Speaker 2>already together. I mean, that's how you fire up Chiefs Kingdom.

0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:06.520
<v Speaker 2>Right is, He's been a Chief for like twenty four

0:18:06.560 --> 0:18:10.200
<v Speaker 2>hours and he's already working out with Patrick in Hollywood,

0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:11.919
<v Speaker 2>works out in Texas. That's what he said during his

0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:14.560
<v Speaker 2>press conference. So it's going to work out perfectly, hopefully

0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:18.320
<v Speaker 2>right there. Get some early work done with the offense

0:18:18.359 --> 0:18:21.199
<v Speaker 2>with Patrick Mahomes, and then when OTAs begin here in

0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:23.520
<v Speaker 2>Kansas City at some point in May, has a bit

0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 2>of a head start, it can start immersing himself in

0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:28.760
<v Speaker 2>this offense. But that's why Ota is, That's why this

0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:31.240
<v Speaker 2>time of year is so important. It's tough for the Chiefs.

0:18:31.320 --> 0:18:33.080
<v Speaker 2>It's a good problem to have, but it's tough because

0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:35.240
<v Speaker 2>their offseason is like a month and a half shorter

0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:38.040
<v Speaker 2>than everyone else's. But when you're a team like Kansas City,

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:40.120
<v Speaker 2>you have a chance to make some history this upcoming year.

0:18:40.200 --> 0:18:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Go for that.

0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:42.439
<v Speaker 2>Three Pete. Guys want to be a part of that.

0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:44.720
<v Speaker 2>Guys are eager to get back to work, and as

0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:47.240
<v Speaker 2>we saw with that ig post, those guys are already working.

0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:50.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Ed ViBe's already here. It was even there at

0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the end of the Super Bowl celebration basically, and it's

0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.600
<v Speaker 1>been carried on ever since then. But it's an example

0:18:56.600 --> 0:18:59.280
<v Speaker 1>of the second wave of free agency. The first wave

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:02.720
<v Speaker 1>is the when in the last episode, you know, the

0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:05.640
<v Speaker 1>legal tampering period and the New York Stock Exchange, where

0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:08.120
<v Speaker 1>everything just goes crazy and people are yelling at each

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:11.639
<v Speaker 1>other and signing guys and going nuts. But the second

0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:14.119
<v Speaker 1>wave is when things calm down and the Chiefs have

0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 1>done a really good job in the second wave. When

0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:20.240
<v Speaker 1>you look at last year, I mean Drew Trank will

0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:24.359
<v Speaker 1>signed about this time of the year. Mike Edwards was

0:19:24.480 --> 0:19:27.159
<v Speaker 1>very close in that time. When you look at and

0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:28.920
<v Speaker 1>the other thing that we want to always try to

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:31.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of emphasize you and I is what's new, what's

0:19:31.840 --> 0:19:34.560
<v Speaker 1>the new shiny thing? Well, you also like to keep

0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the guys that you want, and the Chiefs did that,

0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:40.359
<v Speaker 1>of course with Chris Jones and doing that contract. We

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.000
<v Speaker 1>discussed that they did it with Drew Tranquil, but they

0:19:43.040 --> 0:19:45.120
<v Speaker 1>also did it in the second wave. Because there's three

0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:47.639
<v Speaker 1>guys that come to mind here. Turk Wharton has re

0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:52.320
<v Speaker 1>signed in this so called second wave. Derek Noddy is signed,

0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Mike Panal was a few days earlier than those guys.

0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:57.399
<v Speaker 1>But the point is with Chris Johns, and you're going

0:19:57.480 --> 0:19:59.320
<v Speaker 1>to draft some of you guys or put some free

0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:02.720
<v Speaker 1>agents in there. Your inside tech guys are ready to go.

0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:05.560
<v Speaker 2>A lot of continuity along the interior of the Chiefs

0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:08.600
<v Speaker 2>defensive line from last year and really from previous years.

0:20:09.119 --> 0:20:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Think about Derek Noddy. I think one of the more

0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:15.840
<v Speaker 2>underappreciated players on this team. He's played in ninety eight

0:20:15.920 --> 0:20:19.240
<v Speaker 2>games over the last six seasons and started eighty six

0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:22.200
<v Speaker 2>of them, and he plays a role on the defense

0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:24.840
<v Speaker 2>that's very difficult to quantify, Like he's never going to

0:20:24.880 --> 0:20:27.879
<v Speaker 2>have a ton of really big stats like sacks and

0:20:27.920 --> 0:20:31.080
<v Speaker 2>pressures and all that, but he's occupying space, he's defending

0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:33.320
<v Speaker 2>the run, and he's one of the players inside that

0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:36.439
<v Speaker 2>helps make the entire operation go. And as we've mentioned,

0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:38.240
<v Speaker 2>we think this was the best defense in the NFL

0:20:38.280 --> 0:20:40.520
<v Speaker 2>last year. Well, he was truly right in the middle

0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:43.560
<v Speaker 2>of it. So great having Derek Naughty back. Just does

0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:45.360
<v Speaker 2>a lot of dirty work. As I mentioned that, it's

0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:48.560
<v Speaker 2>hard to put into numbers, but if you just watch

0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:50.840
<v Speaker 2>the games, you can tell why he's so valuable and

0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:53.560
<v Speaker 2>why Bretviach wanted to bring him back. And Turk Wharton

0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:55.439
<v Speaker 2>so seventeen pressures and.

0:20:55.720 --> 0:21:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Do this with Derek. I mean, if you message him,

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:02.360
<v Speaker 1>where you see him in public or whatever, just thank him.

0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:05.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean that guy. You're right, he has done so

0:21:05.240 --> 0:21:07.280
<v Speaker 1>much to help this team win championships and he's been

0:21:07.280 --> 0:21:12.160
<v Speaker 1>a part of all three that unless you really watch

0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:14.760
<v Speaker 1>the video, I don't think we can fully appreciate what

0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:15.600
<v Speaker 1>Derek Naughty does.

0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Sure, and you have to be a certain kind of guy,

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 2>like wired a certain way to really be committed to

0:21:21.080 --> 0:21:23.600
<v Speaker 2>that role. And he's that guy. So that's why he's

0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:26.679
<v Speaker 2>back here in Kansas City. Turk Wharton also a fun player.

0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:29.120
<v Speaker 2>I always think of you when we're talking about Turk

0:21:29.160 --> 0:21:32.879
<v Speaker 2>Wharton because way back in twenty twenty, when training camp

0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:36.640
<v Speaker 2>was at the Chiefs facility due to COVID restrictions, Turk

0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:40.520
<v Speaker 2>was just a UDFA out of a Missouri rawa And

0:21:40.800 --> 0:21:43.560
<v Speaker 2>you and I were watching training camp trying to think

0:21:43.560 --> 0:21:46.480
<v Speaker 2>who would be maybe making this team that people weren't

0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:49.800
<v Speaker 2>talking about, and we saw Turk Wharton out there just

0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:54.040
<v Speaker 2>bawling out, just looking way better than a UDFA should more, Like,

0:21:54.400 --> 0:21:56.760
<v Speaker 2>are we sure this guy wasn't drafted? Like where did

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:59.080
<v Speaker 2>this guy come from? And what a career he's had

0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:01.960
<v Speaker 2>here in Kansas City over the last several years. Last

0:22:02.000 --> 0:22:04.560
<v Speaker 2>year really solid year for him. Had seventeen pressures, five

0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 2>quarterback hits, two sacks. He logged at least twenty five

0:22:07.800 --> 0:22:10.480
<v Speaker 2>defensive snaps in each of the Chiefs four playoff games,

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:13.560
<v Speaker 2>so a regular contributor during the Super Bowl run. And

0:22:13.600 --> 0:22:16.600
<v Speaker 2>what's interesting about him, he's two hundred and eighty pounds,

0:22:16.960 --> 0:22:19.520
<v Speaker 2>so he's kind of a tweener along the defensive line.

0:22:19.600 --> 0:22:21.520
<v Speaker 2>He'd be kind of like a big defensive end, but

0:22:21.640 --> 0:22:24.439
<v Speaker 2>kind of a small in terms of weight defensive tackle.

0:22:24.480 --> 0:22:26.720
<v Speaker 2>But he's still athletic that he can kind of do everything.

0:22:26.880 --> 0:22:29.520
<v Speaker 2>And that's what Steve Spagnola wants as a versatile player

0:22:29.800 --> 0:22:31.879
<v Speaker 2>who can kind of be a chess piece along the

0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:34.480
<v Speaker 2>defensive front. And that's Turk Wharton. I mean, he can

0:22:34.480 --> 0:22:36.960
<v Speaker 2>play the three techts where he normally is, but you

0:22:36.960 --> 0:22:39.080
<v Speaker 2>can line him up over the nose. He could be

0:22:39.119 --> 0:22:41.320
<v Speaker 2>an end in a three man front and even line

0:22:41.359 --> 0:22:43.879
<v Speaker 2>up as an edge outside in a four man front,

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.040
<v Speaker 2>So he can do a little bit of everything. The

0:22:46.160 --> 0:22:49.080
<v Speaker 2>largest legs and quads I have ever seen on a human

0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:52.359
<v Speaker 2>being during training camp, he gets like nine egg oblets.

0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:55.119
<v Speaker 2>But it's paying off glad to have Turk Wharton back

0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:56.000
<v Speaker 2>in casey.

0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:58.359
<v Speaker 1>And he makes an explosive. He can make a flash play.

0:22:58.440 --> 0:23:00.560
<v Speaker 1>Now you go back to his Washington game twenty one,

0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>that's as big time of play as you would want.

0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Interception.

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was awesome. I mean and for a defensive

0:23:07.000 --> 0:23:10.360
<v Speaker 1>lineman to make that play. Yeah. And so he has

0:23:10.400 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 1>the ability athletic ability to make a play like that.

0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:15.840
<v Speaker 1>We've seen him do it time and again. And yes,

0:23:15.960 --> 0:23:19.040
<v Speaker 1>you miners and you engineers and architects and from Missouri

0:23:19.160 --> 0:23:22.160
<v Speaker 1>s and t in Rala, your only player to ever

0:23:22.200 --> 0:23:25.520
<v Speaker 1>make the NFL is a very very valuable player signed

0:23:25.560 --> 0:23:29.000
<v Speaker 1>in the second wave here of free agency in the

0:23:29.040 --> 0:23:32.359
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty fourth season. Then you also lose guys in

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:36.280
<v Speaker 1>this time. Jody Fortson is now Miami Dolphin. And you

0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:39.760
<v Speaker 1>and I both were you know, loved Jody, and gosh,

0:23:39.760 --> 0:23:41.560
<v Speaker 1>there was just such potential there. It was just a

0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:43.800
<v Speaker 1>matter of staying healthy. We wish him the best in Miami.

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:46.359
<v Speaker 2>Very similar deal to what we were saying about Turk Wharton.

0:23:46.480 --> 0:23:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Every training camp we'd watch Jody and he's the ultimate

0:23:49.720 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 2>example of the guy that put the work in and

0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:57.159
<v Speaker 2>wasn't in the limelight early on, but was committed to

0:23:57.200 --> 0:23:59.000
<v Speaker 2>being here and committed to being the best player he

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:01.919
<v Speaker 2>could be on the practice squad for a couple of years,

0:24:02.160 --> 0:24:03.879
<v Speaker 2>and then to earn your shot and to make the

0:24:03.920 --> 0:24:06.399
<v Speaker 2>team out of training camp. That's what it's all about,

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 2>and Jody helped us win over the years. Wishing him

0:24:09.359 --> 0:24:12.040
<v Speaker 2>nothing but the best in Miami. Sometimes when you've had injuries,

0:24:12.080 --> 0:24:15.679
<v Speaker 2>it's a good chance for you to get off to

0:24:15.720 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 2>a fresh start in a new place. And I'm hopeful

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:19.160
<v Speaker 2>that he can have a great rest of his career.

0:24:19.200 --> 0:24:21.960
<v Speaker 2>But Jody's an awesome guy, an awesome player, and wish

0:24:22.040 --> 0:24:22.680
<v Speaker 2>him nothing but.

0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:25.480
<v Speaker 1>The best, absolutely, And then we'll close out this way.

0:24:25.600 --> 0:24:27.840
<v Speaker 1>The other part of the second wave kind of leads

0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 1>into a third wave, and the third wave, we're kind

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:34.679
<v Speaker 1>of will enter this over the next several weeks, and

0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:38.520
<v Speaker 1>then maybe the third wave b would be after the

0:24:38.600 --> 0:24:41.159
<v Speaker 1>June one cuts, because then there's a whole bunch of

0:24:41.240 --> 0:24:42.879
<v Speaker 1>dudes that kind of come flying out there. But let

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:44.679
<v Speaker 1>me just give you some examples of guys who have

0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:48.520
<v Speaker 1>not been signed and have are just out there or

0:24:48.600 --> 0:24:53.160
<v Speaker 1>outlight out, light outright released that not saying they will.

0:24:53.240 --> 0:24:55.840
<v Speaker 1>But just just think about these guys a second. I

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:59.680
<v Speaker 1>got like Max Sharp ring in Cincinnati. Now I'm talking

0:24:59.720 --> 0:25:03.120
<v Speaker 1>about guy who would play obviously fitting the cap, would

0:25:03.119 --> 0:25:07.760
<v Speaker 1>be your sub offensive lineman. Now Mike Kellyando is back

0:25:07.800 --> 0:25:10.639
<v Speaker 1>on the roster, but to lose Nick Alighretty is to

0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:13.879
<v Speaker 1>lose basically your sixth man in basketball, so valuable. It

0:25:13.920 --> 0:25:16.239
<v Speaker 1>can could play center, garden, tackle, and then we saw

0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:18.520
<v Speaker 1>him big man touchdown. He can be tackle over tackle.

0:25:19.000 --> 0:25:21.800
<v Speaker 1>That role has to be filled going into the twenty

0:25:21.840 --> 0:25:24.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty fourth season. But I'm just giving you examples of

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:28.240
<v Speaker 1>veterans who are out there who the Chiefs who down

0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:30.439
<v Speaker 1>through the years have been able to pick up and

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:33.679
<v Speaker 1>get under, you know, team friendly contracts. Another one is

0:25:33.760 --> 0:25:36.760
<v Speaker 1>a native of Abilene, Kansas, and he was a great

0:25:36.760 --> 0:25:40.199
<v Speaker 1>player for the Bears, but Cody Whitehair was released. Now

0:25:40.200 --> 0:25:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Cody Whitehair can play center and guard, super smart and tough,

0:25:45.440 --> 0:25:47.560
<v Speaker 1>and I was just looking at how many starts he had,

0:25:48.640 --> 0:25:52.679
<v Speaker 1>like eighty eight starts maybe with the Chicago Bears. But

0:25:52.760 --> 0:25:55.920
<v Speaker 1>he's out there just waiting for someone to take him.

0:25:56.000 --> 0:25:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Another case staters Dalton Reisner. Now Minnesota may take him back.

0:26:00.000 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Remember he was in Denver as a longtime starter, but

0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:05.480
<v Speaker 1>he's a guy that's there unsigned. And then defensively, well,

0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:09.399
<v Speaker 1>another offensive lineman, Max Garcia of New Orleans was with

0:26:09.480 --> 0:26:12.359
<v Speaker 1>New Orleans, played for Denver sixty three starts. But a

0:26:12.400 --> 0:26:16.080
<v Speaker 1>guy that could be a backup center guard or become

0:26:16.119 --> 0:26:18.480
<v Speaker 1>the sixth man or seventh man on your offensive line

0:26:18.480 --> 0:26:22.320
<v Speaker 1>as a veteran presence and can be more help maybe

0:26:22.320 --> 0:26:24.160
<v Speaker 1>for a one year Morris and then a defensive player's

0:26:24.160 --> 0:26:27.280
<v Speaker 1>a manual log. But old friend, old friend, he's at

0:26:27.359 --> 0:26:29.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty nineteen. Man, he was a big part of this team,

0:26:30.720 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 1>got hurt that season, but he's out there now. Will

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:37.159
<v Speaker 1>he be resigned by Miami don't know. But that's an

0:26:37.200 --> 0:26:40.320
<v Speaker 1>example of the second wave that leads into a third

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:42.840
<v Speaker 1>wave of free agency. That it's almost like the second

0:26:42.920 --> 0:26:44.359
<v Speaker 1>day of the draft and the third day. We got

0:26:44.359 --> 0:26:47.280
<v Speaker 1>all hyped up about the first day, and then the

0:26:47.480 --> 0:26:50.240
<v Speaker 1>value comes in the second and third day. Well, many

0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:53.040
<v Speaker 1>times of the value in free agency comes in this

0:26:53.160 --> 0:26:54.600
<v Speaker 1>second wave or third wave.

0:26:54.680 --> 0:26:56.920
<v Speaker 2>And in both instances, whether it be the second wave

0:26:57.119 --> 0:26:59.240
<v Speaker 2>or third wave of free agency and the latter days

0:26:59.240 --> 0:27:02.240
<v Speaker 2>of the draft, that's where you become a champion. In

0:27:02.280 --> 0:27:06.800
<v Speaker 2>my opinion, because we have our big money, big ticket

0:27:06.840 --> 0:27:10.520
<v Speaker 2>guys already. It's a matter of supplementing those players with

0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:13.359
<v Speaker 2>players around them who can help push you over the top.

0:27:13.480 --> 0:27:16.159
<v Speaker 2>And we've done that in recent years really well. To

0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:19.240
<v Speaker 2>your point, how about signing Donovan Smith on May fourth

0:27:19.320 --> 0:27:22.800
<v Speaker 2>last year, or Richie James on April eleventh, even bringing

0:27:22.840 --> 0:27:25.560
<v Speaker 2>back guys from last year. Jared McKinnon didn't resign until

0:27:25.600 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 2>May second, Justin Watson has resigned on April fourteenth. Dean

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:32.720
<v Speaker 2>Bush joined this team on April third. So I mean,

0:27:32.760 --> 0:27:35.040
<v Speaker 2>we all fall into the trap of watching the first

0:27:35.080 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 2>week of free agency, and some teams throw so much

0:27:37.600 --> 0:27:39.679
<v Speaker 2>money around and bring in a whole bunch of players,

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:42.399
<v Speaker 2>and that's exciting. That's exciting for those teams, But for

0:27:42.440 --> 0:27:44.520
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs, they found a way to kind of pick

0:27:44.560 --> 0:27:47.119
<v Speaker 2>their spots, and in this case, Hollywood Brown was that

0:27:47.200 --> 0:27:49.600
<v Speaker 2>big guy that they brought in during the first week

0:27:49.640 --> 0:27:52.080
<v Speaker 2>of free agency. But just because that first week is

0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:54.720
<v Speaker 2>over doesn't mean that Brett Viach is done, doesn't mean

0:27:54.720 --> 0:27:56.760
<v Speaker 2>that this team is a finished product by any means,

0:27:56.800 --> 0:27:59.760
<v Speaker 2>because you kind of survey the landscape, see who's still

0:27:59.760 --> 0:28:01.880
<v Speaker 2>out there, see who maybe didn't get that huge deal

0:28:01.920 --> 0:28:04.439
<v Speaker 2>they were expecting. Drew Trankl was a great example of that.

0:28:04.600 --> 0:28:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Last year.

0:28:05.080 --> 0:28:07.200
<v Speaker 2>He's talked about it like the linebacker market fell a

0:28:07.240 --> 0:28:10.000
<v Speaker 2>certain way. The Chiefs were looking for a linebacker, and

0:28:10.040 --> 0:28:11.840
<v Speaker 2>he's like, I'm gonna go to Kansas City and hopefully

0:28:11.880 --> 0:28:13.480
<v Speaker 2>win a Super Bowl, and look what happened. It was

0:28:13.480 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 2>a great investment on his part. So if you're one

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:19.399
<v Speaker 2>of those players that are still out there obviously looking

0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:22.000
<v Speaker 2>for a job, the Chiefs are a team that's so

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:25.639
<v Speaker 2>good at again seeing what's out there after that first

0:28:25.680 --> 0:28:27.960
<v Speaker 2>wave and figuring out what makes the most sense. I'm

0:28:27.960 --> 0:28:29.040
<v Speaker 2>excited to see what happens.

0:28:29.240 --> 0:28:31.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it's why I use the offensive line not

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:35.080
<v Speaker 1>the sexiest conversation among football fans always, but we also

0:28:35.200 --> 0:28:38.320
<v Speaker 1>know Coachriid always talks about the trenches and look good

0:28:38.320 --> 0:28:40.040
<v Speaker 1>this offensive line has been in these back to back

0:28:40.080 --> 0:28:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl championship years. There's only eight offensive linemen on

0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the roster right now, okay, and to lose what we lost,

0:28:47.880 --> 0:28:51.520
<v Speaker 1>That's why I'm saying this second and third wave becomes

0:28:51.600 --> 0:28:54.280
<v Speaker 1>very important for that room in particular, because you know

0:28:54.320 --> 0:28:56.360
<v Speaker 1>you'll draft to that room, but who's out there that

0:28:56.400 --> 0:28:59.120
<v Speaker 1>you can get as a value pick who becomes possibly

0:28:59.200 --> 0:29:02.840
<v Speaker 1>the Drew Treng of twenty twenty four for the offensive line.

0:29:02.960 --> 0:29:05.640
<v Speaker 2>And that's why Brettviach makes the money that he does.

0:29:05.640 --> 0:29:07.800
<v Speaker 2>That's why he's the best GM in the game is

0:29:07.800 --> 0:29:10.160
<v Speaker 2>he finds those guys. And what's so fun to learn

0:29:10.200 --> 0:29:13.240
<v Speaker 2>about with our scouting department is how they are working

0:29:13.320 --> 0:29:15.280
<v Speaker 2>year round on that kind of stuff. I mean, they

0:29:15.320 --> 0:29:17.440
<v Speaker 2>have lists of guys at all times, like these guys

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:19.680
<v Speaker 2>are available. These guys are players that we've been interested

0:29:19.680 --> 0:29:22.080
<v Speaker 2>in for a long time. And it's no mistake that

0:29:22.480 --> 0:29:25.120
<v Speaker 2>Hollywood talked about this, that the Chiefs were interested in

0:29:25.200 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 2>him during the draft back in twenty nineteen and it

0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:31.640
<v Speaker 2>didn't work out. But all these years later, you remember that,

0:29:31.800 --> 0:29:33.640
<v Speaker 2>You remember that Hollywood Brown is a player that we

0:29:33.640 --> 0:29:36.280
<v Speaker 2>were interested in. And that's the case as well for

0:29:36.320 --> 0:29:39.960
<v Speaker 2>free agents that are around. It's still available around this time.

0:29:40.480 --> 0:29:42.560
<v Speaker 2>You can think, hey, maybe last year we were interested

0:29:42.560 --> 0:29:44.360
<v Speaker 2>in that guy didn't work out, but he's out there

0:29:44.440 --> 0:29:48.280
<v Speaker 2>right now. That's where the comprehensive outlook that our scouting

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:49.880
<v Speaker 2>department has is so important.

0:29:50.760 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 1>And our scouting department includes the pro personnel staff. We

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:56.080
<v Speaker 1>don't talk about them as much. We talked more about

0:29:56.120 --> 0:29:58.600
<v Speaker 1>the college guys, and but you look at a tim

0:29:58.680 --> 0:30:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Terry and the guys that work on that pro side.

0:30:01.000 --> 0:30:03.280
<v Speaker 1>We crop dust this right, we look at it and

0:30:03.320 --> 0:30:05.080
<v Speaker 1>then move on to the other thousand things we have

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:07.240
<v Speaker 1>to do. They live it. Oh yeah, and they've got

0:30:07.240 --> 0:30:08.840
<v Speaker 1>the little man. I mean, they've got the room up

0:30:08.880 --> 0:30:11.360
<v Speaker 1>there with they you know, they're probably chuckling at me

0:30:11.360 --> 0:30:14.040
<v Speaker 1>mentioned these offensive linemen. They go, well, there's like fifty

0:30:14.040 --> 0:30:16.560
<v Speaker 1>five others. But those are just examples of how the

0:30:16.640 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 1>second wave and third wave. To your point, and we'll

0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:23.400
<v Speaker 1>put is how you win championships. So pay attention to

0:30:23.440 --> 0:30:28.080
<v Speaker 1>the second wave and the third wave of free agency. Plus,

0:30:28.560 --> 0:30:31.360

0:30:31.360 --> 0:30:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Hollywood comes to the chiefs.
