Let's just dive 27 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: right in the Monday Night football game. I'm gonna start 28 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: with the Rams. I have a lot of respect for 29 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh, who doesn't He is a fantastic football coach. 30 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: His resume speaks for itself. But one thing early on 31 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: in his career with the Rams, he inherited Todd Gurley, 32 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: who at the time was healthy. He ran it all 33 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: the time because the guy that taught him, and really 34 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: as a football coach, just like any individual whoever teaches 35 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: you something, they help shape your vision. But ultimately your 36 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: vision is what you are at your core. Right So, 37 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: you think any mentor you've had in business, they influence 38 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: you a lot with whatever industry you work in, but ultimately, 39 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 1: when you get out on your own, or you get 40 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: a lot more leeway, or you get a lot more juice, 41 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: and whatever role you have, you kind of personalize it 42 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: as you should. Right, what does every successful person say 43 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: to most people, Like, be true to yourself, trust your 44 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: gut instincts. Because Kyle and Mike taught Sean right, and 45 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,119 Speaker 1: those two guys Lean run first. They love to run 46 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: the football, and Sean early on with the Rams, did too. 47 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 1: And now he's pivoted to much more of a throwing attack. 48 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: And that's why he aspired to get Matt Stafford, and 49 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: he got him and they ultimately won the Super Bowl. 50 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: But I just wonder if it's sustainable Bowl to consistently 51 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,839 Speaker 1: do it with Matt Stafford. I said it a couple 52 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. I think I was watching who. I 53 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: was watching the Cardinal game, and I just it hit me. 54 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: It's like, this is the most bizarre player I think 55 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Number one overall pick. I've always supported him, 56 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: rooted for him in Detroit because I lean physical specimens. 57 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: I like guys with massive arms. He is my type player, 58 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: Like I don't like weak arm quarterbacks. It doesn't mean 59 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm always right. Sometimes big armed quarterbacks aren't that good. 60 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: And I always tried to justify his lack of success 61 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: because of the organization, and then last year it was 62 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: a roller coaster ride. And Richard Sherman, my man, clearly 63 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: isn't the biggest Matt Stafford guy. And he's tweeting out 64 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: tonight that if you check the numbers Jared Goff and 65 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford, Goff's numbers are better, and I would push 66 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: back a little if Richard was sitting right here. You know, 67 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: it's not apples to apples. Jared's been down big in 68 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: games and put up some hollow stats, but still, like 69 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: if you just look at the box scores, one thing 70 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,119 Speaker 1: cannot be denied. Matt Stafford consists only throws the ball 71 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: to the other team. And I've always and I know 72 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: Coward's big on this. I'm cool with throwing some picks, 73 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: have no problem with throwing some interceptions. You better be 74 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: an explosive player, and you better throw a lot of touchdowns. 75 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: And last year he did, but he was a drop 76 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: pick away from the forty nine ers winning that championship game. 77 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: And then early on in this season, obviously the Buffalo 78 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: game throws a bunch of picks. Now you can say 79 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: his elbow, which I was saying all during camp. But 80 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: now he's been healthies practice all the time he's playing 81 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: in these games. I'm watching him, he looks like normal 82 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford and Matt Stafford now they clearly the way 83 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: they've built the team because of the trades they've made, 84 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: they don't have many picks. Clearly the Alan Robinson thing 85 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: isn't working out. Cooper Cup is a beast, but they 86 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: basically throw to him every play. They're not throwing to 87 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: Higbee and they can't really run the ball, so they 88 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: are so reliant on Stafford in tight games or games 89 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: where they're just trailing by a touchdown to throw it 90 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: like fifty times a game. And the more and more 91 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: he throws the ball, the more often he's gonna throw 92 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: it to the other team. The more and more I 93 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: have to chip in golf, the more often I'm gonna 94 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: scull at the reality is of Matt Stafford. He is 95 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: just more inclined than most of the great quarterbacks that 96 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: he's kind of in the world of definitely financially, but 97 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: now resume wise to just throw it to Telenoah who 98 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: funga last year. It was throwing it to Jimmy Ward. 99 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: It was throwing it to Ambrey Thomas. Remember he had 100 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: that stretch last year in the Ravens Tennessee. He wanted 101 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: to just throw pickses. He'll throw pick sixes. Remember that 102 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: kind of ended Matt Shob's career. And I'm not comparing 103 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: Matt Shob to Matt Stafford, but the reason everyone starts 104 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: of viscerating some quarterbacks sometimes is they're constantly throwing picks. 105 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: And Matt Stafford, luckily, he's still an explosive player, or 106 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: at least was last year. Right now he's not. So 107 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: if you're not going to throw up touchdowns, and right 108 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: now they are clearly struggling to throw up touchdowns, here's 109 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 1: part of the problem. Matt Stafford is not Lamar Jackson, 110 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: he's not Josh Allen. He's a good athlete, but he 111 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: can't just run away from everybody and their offensive line 112 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: right now, when you have a decent defensive line, let 113 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: alone something like San Francisco. He's a sitting duck. So 114 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: he's throwing it up to Cooper Cup every play or 115 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: he's running for his life and the picks. Like I 116 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: thought this the other day when I was watching him 117 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: against Arizona. Obviously, McVeigh it's an upgrade, I believe, regardless 118 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: of what Schurem says, I'd rather have Matt Stafford than 119 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: Jared Goff because his ceiling is much higher. But it 120 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: can't be disputed that on any given game, whether you're 121 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: playing the forty nine ers in a massive Monday night game, 122 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: or whether you're playing some random ten am kickoff against 123 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons and no one's watching, I know that 124 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: wasn't actually ten am kickoff. It was one o'clock kickoff. 125 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: He could just throw picks, he could throw the ball 126 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: to the other team. That can happen at a moment's notice. 127 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: And you know they're paying him a lot of money 128 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: to be Josh Allen Mahomes. You know Brady Rogers like 129 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: he's being compensated on that level. And I know he 130 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl, but like, part of getting the 131 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: huge money is to sustain it. And it's just it's 132 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: the ultimate roller coaster ride. The Niners are two like 133 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: they can go under Kyle Shanahan looking like one of 134 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: the most putrid teams in the league. Now, I know 135 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: their defense look good against Russell, but as we've watched 136 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: more and more of the Broncos, a lot of teams 137 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: look good against the Broncos, right, and a lot of defenses, 138 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: you know, make plays against Russell Wilson. But the Niners 139 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: on that Sunday night football game did not look great. 140 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: And then they play the Rams again, the defending Super 141 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: Bowl champions. They still have Aaron Donald, they still got 142 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, they still got Sean McVeigh, and they kind 143 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: of shove them around. And to me, that's kind of 144 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan. When you least expect it, you're like, oh, 145 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: the Niners, they might just be screwed. It could just 146 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: be a seven, six win team all of a sudden, 147 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: they'll kick ass in a primetime game. Now this week 148 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: coming up against the Panthers. If you tell me it's 149 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: a tie game going in the fourth quarter, all believe it. 150 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: But the following week, if they're playing someone important and 151 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: the lights are on, I'll expect him to show up. 152 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: And part of the reason they often show up is 153 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: because they have elite players and they're missing a ton. 154 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: Trent Williams is out. Obviously they're starting quarterbacks out. We 155 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: don't know if he's an elite player or not, but 156 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: Trent's the best left tackle in the sport. Jimmy Ward 157 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: is one of the best players on their defense. I 158 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: mean that they have major injuries on their team yet 159 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, nick Bosa, fred Warner are complete 160 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: ass kickers and on any given game against any given team, 161 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: they're core guys that are on the field, Pro Bowl 162 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: level guys, top fifty players in the league. I mean, 163 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: Nick bos is one of the best pass rushers in 164 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: the league. Deebo Samuel is one of the best playmakers. 165 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 1: Fred Warner's one of the best linebackers. They can take 166 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: over and they can physically and emotionally impose their will 167 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: and that's what they did tonight. And they will always 168 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 1: match you up against teams and they have since Kyle 169 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: has really got them humming. If your offensive line stinks, 170 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: and the Rams offensive line is just not good, and 171 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: if your offensive line is not good, they will annihilate you. 172 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: They will put so much pressure on your quarterback that 173 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: you'll just be fighting an uphill battle. And that is 174 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: why the forty nine Ers have won seven of the 175 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: last eight games against the Rams, and the one game 176 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: they lost the NFC Championship, which is the most important 177 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: game of those eight games, was you know, there to 178 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: be had they were had a double digit lead in 179 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: the second half, Quas Guitart just got to hold on 180 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: to the ball. But like they match up well against 181 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,959 Speaker 1: the Rams. What do they say? Styles make fights? And 182 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 1: the reason that the forty nine ers are always a 183 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: good matchup against the Rams is because their number one 184 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: advantage against most teams is their defensive line in their 185 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: pass rush, and the Rams offensive line is just a 186 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: red flak. It's a liability and the Niners feast on them. 187 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: And then their dbs have gotten better over the years, 188 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: their safety plays improved. Now they add award who Funga 189 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: is really good? Like that guy is a player. And 190 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: if you watch USC in the down years, in the 191 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: lean years with Clayhelton, there's a few guys over the 192 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: years that really stood out, right, Juju stood out, Who 193 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: Inga stood out? Drake Jackson did from like a scouting perspective, 194 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: But you know, depending on the week. To me, Juju 195 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: and who Funger are two guys if you watch USC 196 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: over the last seven eight years that just were making plays. 197 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: In fifteen when he was at USC, made plays non 198 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: stop and the number one question about him coming out 199 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: was what position does he play? Is he a safety? 200 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: Is he a linebacker? Then he didn't run that fast 201 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 1: and he falls the sixth round. John Lynch, Adam Peters, 202 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan. They love the guy. They've believed in the guy. 203 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: He's become a starter and he's been fucking awesome this year. 204 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: He is an absolute monster as a tackler. And then 205 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: if you're gonna make plays in the passing game, you know, 206 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: that's how you become a pro bowler. Never forget the 207 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: guy that kind of ended the Davante Adams era in 208 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: Green Bay by falling on a block punt was taler No, 209 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: who funga And that's just when he was a role player, 210 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: special teams guy. Now he's turned into a starter and 211 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: he's become one of the better players on you know 212 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: what could be the best defense in the NFL.

Okay, let's dive into two coaches, one 248 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: who has been very impressive, who's I would I stocking? 249 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: And the other one who could be fired as soon 250 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: as Friday morning because he plays on Thursday night. It's 251 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: Brian dave Ball of the New York Giants and it's 252 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: Frank Reich of the Indianapolis Colts. Now, have you ever 253 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: seen guys Grocery Games? It's on the Food Network. It's 254 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: like in a grocery store. Reality TV show. He gives 255 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: like three aspiring cooks and chefs. He picks them specific 256 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 1: ingredients or limits the time they have to go pick 257 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: their own ingredients, and then they try to whip up 258 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: some sweetmeal. Like for me, I'm not a great cook. 259 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: You would have to give me the exact ingredients, and 260 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 1: even then I'd be holding on from my ass to 261 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,599 Speaker 1: cook good meal. I can barbecue a little bit, but 262 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: I inside the kitchen that is not my forte. You 263 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: took me to Fleming's. I probably could make you a steak. 264 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: You just give me top ramin, an avocado, pepper, and 265 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: some mayonnaise. I'd be screwed. Emerald Ghassi he could make it. 266 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: I think we all agree being able to make something 267 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: out of nothing in the kitchen is impressive. If I 268 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: give you the exact ingredients for anything and you make it, 269 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: you know, not as impressive. No different than Tim Cook 270 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: took over Apple. Like, let's face it, Apple was on 271 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: an upward trajectory after Steve Jobs, I don't know, created 272 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: the iPhone, the iPod, the iPad like it's you know, 273 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: if I took over Amazon tomorrow. Even though I've never 274 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: been a CEO, I've never been in a management position 275 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: at least for a couple months, maybe even a couple 276 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: of years. I could keep the thing humming, right, But 277 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: if you start something from scratch or make something from scratch, 278 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: it's much more impressive. We all agree there. I mean, 279 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: that's that's a universal truth, right. And when you take 280 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: a football team that sucks and you win, hat tip, Right, 281 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: you go to Kansas and become five and zero, like 282 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: the dude is doing right now, and get college game 283 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: day there week six or week five or whatever week 284 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: it's in college. Obviously he's five and oh that is 285 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: very very impressive. You take over Alabama because Saving retires, 286 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: and you make it to the playoffs. Just not as impressive. 287 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what they had been doing. So you 288 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: go to the New York Giants, who have had three 289 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: different coaches in four years. They have been running through coaches, 290 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: they have been running through players. They have been a disaster. 291 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: All they've been doing is losing. And you don't have 292 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: a quarterback, you don't have a very good roster, and 293 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, after four games you're three and one. 294 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: I don't care what your schedule is. I thought they 295 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: would win three or four games on the season, like, 296 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: let's face it, more than likely he's gonna win six 297 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: or seven games, and to overachieve like that is impressive. 298 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: But as we talked about the difference of him and 299 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: the umbrella that most of the Belichick guys have always 300 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: been under, he'd been in other places, and mainly he 301 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: was under Sean McDermott where he got to spread his 302 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: wings and specifically put his stamp on Josh Allen and 303 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: spread his wings and become a really good coach. With Belichick. 304 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: We saw him with Nick Saban. Most guys have success 305 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: under those guys, watch what do you do outside of him? 306 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: And he went with Josh Allen, a guy that most 307 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: of us thought sucked in college, and turned him into 308 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: a monster. Now it might not have been all him, 309 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: obviously Josh gets credit. But Brian day Ball I think 310 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: we have enough evidence pretty damn good coach. I would 311 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: buy stock in Brian day Ball moving forward. For him 312 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: able to compete with the roster he's thrown out is incredible. 313 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: He doesn't have a quarter. Daniel Jones stinks. He's not 314 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: very good. Yesterday got hurt. The backup got hurt for 315 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: a little while before Daniel Jones, cold like tough it out. 316 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: They're going with Sakwan Barkley a quarterback. Now, sa Kwan's 317 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: really good and he's got a swag back. But other 318 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: than that, if Brian day Ball in three years, if 319 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: I had to go over under people on this current 320 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: roster that they're gonna be on that team, not counting 321 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: the draft picks from this year, I would put the 322 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: number at like two and a half. There are not 323 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: going to be many people that are gonna survive two 324 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: years from now, let alone next year. So what he 325 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: is doing like that, it's impressive coaching. You go to 326 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: Kansas and win. Wow. You go to Oklahoma and lose that. 327 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: You might suck bread, animals might not be any good. 328 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 1: You go to this New York Giants team and win damn. 329 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: But the Colts now Chris Ballad once upon a time 330 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: was in a tough situation, right Josh McDaniels left him 331 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: at the Altar. He had already hired coaches. Ebra Flus 332 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: was already there on staff. So that was a situation 333 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: no GM can prepare for, knows what to do. I mean, 334 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 1: it's it's an unprecedented situation. There have been some similarities, 335 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: but not quite like that, not where assistant coaches were hired. 336 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: That was crazy. So we had to pivot on the 337 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: fly and did the best he could. He hired Frank, 338 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: and early on it looked like Frank was pretty good. 339 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: I think if you follow football and Colts fans know this. 340 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: But even on the outside, Frank Reich high level guy, 341 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: good person. But the NFL is not about good and 342 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: bad people. There have been a lot of bad people 343 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: that wont there have been a lot of good people 344 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: who lost. I think Jason Garrett is very well respected. 345 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: He's an average coach at best. Good guy. You'd want 346 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: him as your neighbor, you'd want him as a friend, 347 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: but he's just Cliff Kingsbury, same thing. I don't see it. 348 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: Good guy. Everyone I know that knows him loves him. 349 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: But I don't think he's very good coach. You know, 350 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: when I look at Frank, I see super good guy, 351 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 1: someone you'd want in a church group, you'd want to 352 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: be a mentor to your son. But he's a below 353 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: average coach. And someone corrected me in the DMS. I 354 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 1: think I said on Sunday night they were one and three. 355 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: They're technically one two and one the Tide of the Texans. 356 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: I viewed that as a loss. And they're playing on 357 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: Thursday night, and there are rumors. I don't know. I 358 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: don't have any inside information on this. I don't know Ballard. 359 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: I think Ballard's pretty good, but he's gonna cost himself 360 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: a job if he won't pivot off, Frank. Like, sometimes 361 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: in business, you know there's a balancing act and there's 362 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,959 Speaker 1: not a perfect like kind of equilibrium or like line 363 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: for this, right, You got to balance unless you're just 364 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: a pure asshole, and it's easy to do. Most of us, 365 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: I think are not. And the farther we get in business, 366 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 1: the more success you have. You got to learn how 367 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: to kind of tote the line of being unemotional and 368 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: making good business decisions, but also being a good person, 369 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: being well respected, treating others well. And I think part 370 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: of being business is being loyal to align and then 371 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: going listen, Frank, this is now working out. We gotta 372 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: go a different direction. You should be traditionally loyal to 373 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: most people in your life. Like, honestly, I can count 374 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: on one hand the people I would no matter what, 375 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: and start with my mom, probably be my brother, and 376 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: then there'd be like two or three people after that 377 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: and then the line shut. I'm sorry, like, I will 378 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: have to pivot if something happens, right, And I think 379 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: Chris Ballard, who from all accounts, went to this guy's 380 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: defense at the end of last season, they pivoted off Carson, 381 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: but I think the owner wanted to get rid of 382 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: the coach. Now It's like, hey, bro, this ain't working. 383 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: You were doing a pretty good job. You're signing, trading 384 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: all these you know players, like you need to look 385 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: out for herself now. And I think that's a tough 386 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: balancing act because people I know that no Chris Ballard, 387 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 1: super high character guy, probably not an easy position to 388 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: be in. But we talk about and I always say 389 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: this about NFL gms, because well, how do he draft? 390 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: How do he draft? The job is about more than 391 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 1: just the draft. Who do you sign in free agency? 392 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: But mainly who do you acquire a quarterback? Who do 393 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: you hire as your head coach? Like those are your 394 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,360 Speaker 1: most two important hires. Like ultimately the Jets, if Zach 395 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: Wilson is not good, it doesn't matter how many other 396 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: players that they nailed right, the wide receivers, the running back, 397 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: the defensive players the corner. They could have nailed eighty 398 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: percent of their draft picks the last couple of years. 399 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: But if Zach Wilson ain't it, they're fucked. It's over. 400 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: No different, you hired the wrong coach. Unless you're Steve Kim. 401 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: You don't get multiple three or four head coaches. Most 402 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: gms get two. Max and Chris bad situation with Josh 403 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: didn't work out, left him at the altar. Now I 404 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: think it's time to pivot off for especially if you 405 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: keep losing, because right now, let's face it, it ain't 406 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: it ain't trend in well a couple other head coaches, 407 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: first and foremost, Matt Rule. I went out on a 408 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: limb and it was, you know, I'm not stephen A. 409 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: I'm not skipped, but I wanted to be a little different. 410 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 1: I didn't want to pick the same teams right. I 411 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: couldn't get myself to take the Lions in the NFC North, 412 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 1: too much respect for the Packers. And then I basically 413 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: I was never gonna take Dennis Allen. We'll get to 414 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: him in a second. I just I thought Brady might 415 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: get a divorce. I thought his wife might leave him, 416 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: and that thing could crumble. Well, it turns out Brady's 417 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: getting divorced or not. I don't know, but that dude's 418 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: locked in. He looks fantastic. I mean, he's at forty five, 419 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: he is humming, throwing seas. It's sure as hell. Wasn't 420 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: his fault. They lost the Chiefs. I was wrong. The 421 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: Bucks are gonna be just fine. They're gonna win that division, 422 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: and ultimately Matt Rule. His number one downfall is gonna 423 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 1: be because it felt like he was kind of on 424 00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: the hot seat coming into this year. He can't find 425 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: to quarterback. Like, if you can't find a quarterback, you 426 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: have no chance to have any success. It's just impossible, right, 427 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: And he keeps going through. Teddy Bridgewater traded for Sam Donald, 428 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: traded for Baker Mayfield, and I celebrated, might be strong, 429 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 1: but I completely understood, and I would have done it 430 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: in his shoes. The Sam Donald and the Baker Mayfield deals, 431 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: especially the Sam Donald I thought that was a steal. 432 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: And Baker for a fifth round pick. Why not? Well, 433 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: both these two guys think, I mean, Baker Mayfield just 434 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: isn't good. I was wrong because I pushed back argued 435 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: with Coward years ago Coward hated he shorted him right 436 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: off the bat, and I said, Colin, he's gonna be 437 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 1: the next Drew Brees. Well, the reason Colin was right 438 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: because he bet against the person. And the reason Drew 439 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: Brees was a great player wasn't because of his physical attributes. 440 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 1: He's six foot and has an average arm. It's because 441 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: of the person, his drive, his focus, his desire. It's 442 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 1: like Brady Peyton Manning, like, the reason Drew Brees is 443 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: going to the Hall of Fame is because of the 444 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: human that he is when it comes to football character, 445 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: not his physical attributes. I mean, he's an accurate passer, 446 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: but how much time and effort he put into his craft? 447 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 1: And Baker, to me, looks like a guy that doesn't 448 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: try that hard. And I over I thought he was 449 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: just more physically gifted. He doesn't have that many physical attributes. 450 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 1: Arm pretty, you know, his arm's okay, But when you're 451 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: getting balls batted down, when you can't move, when you're short, 452 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 1: it's it ain't working. But he's just not very good. 453 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: And Matt Rule is now eleven and twenty six, Teddy Bridgewater, 454 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield just a disastrous situation. Now next 455 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: week he's playing the forty nine ers. He's just headed 456 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: for another five six win team because they have no offense. 457 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, who's been so banged up the last couple 458 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: of years. There was a run earlier this season that 459 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: he broke. Christian McCaffrey had breakaway speed back in the day. 460 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: He got caught, so he's a shell of himself. They're 461 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: screwed now, Matt Rule, He'll be fine. He made sixty 462 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: plus million dollars from David Tepper. I don't blame him 463 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 1: David Tepper for going after him, but I think one 464 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: thing you could never underestimate in modern day football. Maybe 465 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: it was a little bit different back in the day. 466 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: You didn't have to have NFL experience. When Urban Meyer 467 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 1: got the job with the Jaguars, I didn't just short 468 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 1: that situation because I think Urban's kind of a fraud. 469 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: It's because he's never worked in the NFL that the 470 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: difficulty of dealing with people to get paid at large 471 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 1: sums of money that have more money than you, that 472 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: live in bigger homes than you, is not something great 473 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: college coaches are used to, and he got swallowed up. 474 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 1: He didn't make a year, even Chip, who had some 475 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: immediate success. The difference between Chip and Urban. Like Chip 476 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: is the guy calling the place. Urban is just this CEO. 477 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 1: So at least Chip could put his stamp on the 478 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: game early on. Now, granted, everyone caught up to a 479 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 1: scheme and it ultimately didn't work out, But like Urban, 480 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: he had never coached in the league. Jim Harbaugh played 481 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: in the NFL for like fifteen years, got his coaching 482 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: start with Al Davis with the Raiders. Now, Matt Rule 483 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: had one year NFL experience, but it was as an 484 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 1: assistant offensive line co The gap between running a college 485 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: program at Temple or Baylor and being an NFL head 486 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: coach is gigantic. I mean it is Grand Canyon wide. 487 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: And because when you're a head coach in college, you're 488 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: also the general manager. Now they have titles of gems 489 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 1: now in college, but that guy answers the head coach. 490 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: The head coach is basically, if you win, as Matt 491 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: Rule did at Baylor, who's making seven eight million dollars, 492 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 1: you basically own the franchise. You're an untouchable Nick Saban 493 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: Kirby Smart, These guys are untouchable figures at their Lincoln 494 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: Riley like no one is telling him what to do. 495 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: In the NFL. Want everything you do, unless it's tiny 496 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: little things, you probably got to ask the owner. And 497 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: I'm not talking like practice squad guys, but you're not 498 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: making a trade without asking the owner. When you want 499 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: to sign a transfer or sign a player in college, 500 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: you don't ask anybody. You do it. You want to 501 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: sign said player like you gotta get it okay with 502 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: the owner. It's the way the business works, and it's 503 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: been as now. There are already several head coaching jobs 504 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: open right Nebraska, Wisconsin just open. I think Matt Rule 505 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: will be in the mix both those two places. He 506 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: feels kind of Midwestern e even though I think he's 507 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 1: from the Northeast, but he kind of Midwestern Northeast kind 508 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: of feels Big ten feels like an easy spot form 509 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,479 Speaker 1: Some of these big twelve jobs also feel like an 510 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: easy spot depending on what opens. You know, if I'm Oklahoma, 511 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: I'd fire Venables and hire Matt Rule. Yesterday. Venables is 512 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: just that that ain't gonna work out. But Matt Rules, 513 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 1: you know it's over. And then Dennis Allen this one. 514 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: I saw it coming I try to tell everyone not 515 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: a hater. I just have some experience. I worked for 516 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: Pat Hill, I worked for Andy Reid, and then for 517 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: a couple of years I went to a lot of 518 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh practice being a head coach. A large percentage 519 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: of him quote unquote have it now. Back in the eighties, 520 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people said Belichick it just wasn't gonna 521 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: work because he didn't have it. Well, it turns out 522 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: Belichick was smarter and everyone else. You watch him against 523 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: the Packers. He knows the rules better than the referees. 524 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: Think about that, but it's really not that jocking. Of 525 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: course he knows the rules. He's been in the NFL 526 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: since seventy five. He's the smartest guy in NFL history. 527 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: So he's screaming at the refs. He knows the rules, 528 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: no different like anyone listening to this, any business owner, 529 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: any sales guy in the trenches of society, you know 530 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: what's really going on much better than these government officials, right, 531 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: I say it all the time. Referees government officials two 532 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: places where you can be inept at your job and 533 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: keep it. And Dennis Allen, like I was around him 534 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: with the Raiders, I wasn't judging him off his win 535 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: loss record. Walsh Belichick parcels they wouldn't have win that 536 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: many games with what he had with the Raiders. But like, 537 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: part of being a head coach is having it. And 538 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: if you're not going to be one of the biggest 539 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 1: geniuses ever, like Mike McDaniel, the reason he has a 540 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: chance to succeed is not because his IT factor. It's 541 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,640 Speaker 1: because the guy's a schematical genius. Ivy League guy learned 542 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: from this Janah hands every player, even Kyle says, yeah, 543 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: this guy knows his shit. It's not because he's got 544 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: some huge physical presence. Of course he doesn't. Just like 545 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: Belichick back in the day, Belichick became a genius because 546 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: he literally is a football genius, and that's how you 547 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: create an IT thing. Well, Dennis Allen like, is he 548 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: some schematical genius, good defensive coach, good defensive coordinator. But 549 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: it ain't working out to me. The Saints are headed 550 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,640 Speaker 1: in a terrible direction. And you know what their biggest 551 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 1: problem is, they don't have their first round pick, Howie Roseman, 552 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: who's one of the best gems in the league. Team 553 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: just happens to be four and Oho made a no 554 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: brainer trade. He didn't need three first round picks. Last year. 555 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 1: He traded I think pick two first rounders for one 556 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: of their first rounders, and he'd already used one of 557 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: his picks, so he still had two first rounders last year. 558 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: And he gets his first rounder and their first rounder 559 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: this year. Well, it looks like the Saints have a 560 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: decent shot of being a top ten drafting team. And 561 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: how he might not even need a quarterback. Think about that, 562 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: He's got Jalen who is ending. I don't want want 563 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: to say superstardom by any means, but as a damn 564 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: good starting quarterback. Now we'll see how he fares in 565 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs. But even if they were to lose in 566 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: like the first round, even if they got the number 567 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: one seed like the Titans last year, to me, you 568 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: would still run it back unless you had the chance 569 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: to get a guy that you loved in this draft, 570 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: and I think Dennis Allen unlike Sean Payton. Sean Payton, 571 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: if you remember Saints fans, will I had a couple 572 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: of those years, I think when they went seven and 573 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: nine and they had like a historic offense, but the 574 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: defense was atrocious. I'm pretty sure. Rob Ryan was the 575 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: defensive coordinator. I love the Ryan brothers, my cousins. A 576 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, we were going to a bachelor 577 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: party and they were They were there ahead of me, 578 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: and they were at like a bar drinking, and Rob 579 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: and Rex were there and they took pictures, the two 580 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: burly guys. I think Robin Rex are good defensive minds. 581 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: But at the time the Saints they were terrible on defense, 582 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: and Sean had equity though he had won a Super Bowl, 583 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: they had been in the playoffs a bunch of times. 584 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: Dennis Allen has no equity like part of being a 585 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: head coach, like you gotta have some wins and equity 586 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: in the bank. Like ultimately, when they thought about fireing 587 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: harbought two years ago and they ended up not like 588 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: Jim hadn't lived up to the hype. But he was 589 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: still winning games. They were still winning eight, nine, ten games. 590 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: Right if he had a couple of five win seasons, 591 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: he would have been screwed. It's Venable's problem with Oklahoma. 592 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: What is his equity? His equity is with the Clemson 593 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: football program. With Oklahoma, they've been used to winning eleven games. 594 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: Said the same thing about Marcus Freeman. You know, you 595 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: can't go seven and five when you got no equity 596 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: in the bank. You're allowed a bad season, but you 597 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: have to have proof that you know what you're doing. 598 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: It was Scott Frost's problem, never one when he was 599 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: at Nebraska. It happens a lot in college guys getting 600 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Too much money, the media rights. All 601 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: these teams are making so much they could easily afford 602 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: to buy you out. And I think Dennis Allen is 603 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: in major, major trouble. Some quarterback thoughts. I watched the 604 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: Jets Steeler game, and I'm not gonna take a victory lap, 605 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: but I told you Steeler fans mitster Bisky is just 606 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 1: not a very good player. He's just not a good 607 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: player here. He just the quarterback instincts are not there. 608 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: He's not accurate. You just watch him and you go, 609 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: this guy's not a good quarterback. You don't need to 610 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: be you know, the assistant GM of the Dallas Cowboys 611 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: or the LA Rams to know what good and bad 612 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: quarterback play looks like. Especially bad quarterback play. You watch Mitch, 613 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: you go, this is bad. Now let's start with Kenny Pickett. 614 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: He comes in he throws three picks. Now, granted one 615 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: of them was at the end of the game. I'll 616 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: give him pass. He's not my type quarterback. I'm not 617 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: in the guys average athletes with average arms. Now, maybe 618 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: their team's good enough they can overcome it. It It doesn't 619 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: feel like they are. He wasn't terrible in that game. 620 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: Did throw an atrocious pick where he kind of freaked out. 621 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: I say the same thing with him and Mac Jones, 622 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: and Mac is a better player than Pickett. The reason 623 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of those type players because 624 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: for them to be good, they have to maximize every 625 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: inch of talent. They can never do like the things 626 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: that Mahomes, that Alan, that Herbert. They don't have that 627 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:01,719 Speaker 1: in the bag. And when you're a physically your margin 628 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: for error is so much smaller. And when your team 629 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,320 Speaker 1: isn't perfect, which let's face it, most of these teams 630 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: around the league do not have perfect offensive lines. There's 631 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: so many good defensive linemen all over the league. You're 632 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: all you gotta be able to move. And you can 633 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: tell me all you want. You know, he's a better 634 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: athlete than you give him credit for. I just see 635 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: an average talent. I see an average talent, and I'm 636 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: not in to take an average. If you want to 637 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: take in the third round, no big deal. Hell, if 638 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: you want to take in the late second round, I 639 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: could dig it. But Mac Jones at fifteen, Kenny Pickett 640 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: at twenty, I'm sorry, Like, I didn't see anything yesterday 641 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: that's gonna make me change my tune. Now, on the 642 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: flip side, Zach Wilson, Like, physically he's on a different 643 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: level as a thrower than Kenny Pickett. Right, you watch 644 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: that game, the ball comes out of his hand, he 645 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: can spin it right and he can move a little 646 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 1: bit too, but he can definitely throw it. He throws 647 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 1: it like a top fifteen quarterback. But he's not mister accuracy. Now, 648 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: yesterday was eighteen to thirty six, but the ball was 649 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: kind of He makes some great passes, he makes some plays, 650 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: but then he also makes them plays like what the 651 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: fuck was that? And like I said earlier, I'm not 652 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: gonna totally crush him coming back off a knee injury 653 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: first game of the season. But I was always a 654 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: little leary his one big year in college was against nobody. 655 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: I've never disputed his ability to throw bombs and throw darts, 656 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: but playing the quarterback position is about having touch, accuracy, 657 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: seeing the defense, have an instincts at the position. And 658 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: I would be a little hesitant because the Jets, it 659 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: feels like I've hit a lot of picks. They got 660 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: a lot of good Hell, they got two good receivers 661 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: and a suite running back who they've drafted in the 662 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: last couple of years. But if he is average, they're 663 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: in trouble. They really are. And I'll give him a 664 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: little bit more time, and I know he can make 665 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: every throw. But Kenny play the position. And like I said, 666 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: I don't like weak arm guys, but some weak arm 667 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: guys can function right. Dak Cooper Rush is functioning. Kirk 668 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: Cousin's arms actually gotten better. Andy Dalton when he was 669 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: with the Bengals and they were good could function like 670 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: you can't. Alex Smith is probably the best version of that, 671 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: like you can't. But I like my guys to be 672 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: more physically gifted. But to be physically gifted, you also 673 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: got to be able to read defenses, get through your progressions, 674 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: be accurate with the ball, not throw it in double coverage. 675 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: Like Kenny Pickett doesn't have a great arm. One of 676 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: his picks, he just throws a lollipop up basically into 677 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: double coverage. Now you can be like, well, Claypool's got 678 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,479 Speaker 1: a high point. Yeah, I just he shouldn't be making 679 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: that throw now. Of course, miss Rubisky got benched, but 680 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: it could be a long season, like Mike Tomlin's record 681 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 1: of never going under five hundred could come to an end. 682 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 1: And last, but not least, I was a huge fan 683 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: of this guy coming into the draft because, like I said, 684 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm into physical attributes. This guy was big, he can run, 685 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: and he has a huge arm, And I said, the 686 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: Bears do not have much around him. His offensive line 687 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: is one of the worst in the league, might be 688 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: the worst in the league. His skill guys are not 689 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: very good. But if you're a Bears fan, if you 690 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 1: just follow football, you've probably seen some stats. It's been 691 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: very very ugly for justin fields. Now. He did make 692 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: a great deep ball throw, but he used to do 693 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: that in college too. Remember against Clemson the playoff game, 694 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: throws a beautiful deep ball. But I just a little 695 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: like Zach Wilson. Is he good at playing the position, 696 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: because right now he's not looks a little lost. But 697 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: I still think there's something to work with because he's 698 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: just too physically gifted when he lets when he runs. 699 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: But it's just I would red flag the situation. I 700 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: really would, because here's here's one issue I keep thinking about. 701 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 1: Now I'm not Kyle Shanahan has not always been right 702 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: on his quarterback evaluations. Time will tell with Trey Lance, 703 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: but he did not like justin fields. He had two 704 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in a completely different category, Trey Lance and Mac Jones. 705 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: Matt Rule. Who hell, who knows he passed on him, 706 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: George Peyton. Now Patrick Surtan looks elite. I'm that guy, 707 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, Patrick Churtan is, He's Richard Sherman length with 708 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: Durrell Reeves athleticism like that is a Hall of Fame 709 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: level player. So in a vacuum, of course, Patrick Surtan 710 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 1: is a better player in justin fields. But they needed 711 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 1: a quarterback and they didn't even hesitate going with a corner. 712 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 1: So a lot of teams passed on this guy. When 713 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: you're talking from Ohio state, number one recruit, six foot 714 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: two and a half, huge arm, could move. Again, I 715 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,840 Speaker 1: loved him. I'm not trying to play Monday morning quarterback. 716 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: I would have drafted him the Niners. I would have 717 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: taken him third overall. Hell, I would have taken him 718 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: if I was the Jets. But you know I'm not. 719 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 1: I don't claim to be Bill Walsh here. I get 720 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: him wrong as well. I didn't like Josh Allen, so 721 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: it is not going well for Justin Fields. And then 722 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,720 Speaker 1: another quarterback who I was talking with an NFL executive yesterday, 723 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: and I was like, you know what's crazy. When I 724 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: used to go to games a lot in like in 725 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 1: the NFL, and then when I did the Raiders pre 726 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: and post game, I would be on the field a 727 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 1: lot for pregame warm ups. And at the time, most 728 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: of the quarterbacks in the league, right Peyton obviously, Brady 729 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 1: still there, Carson Palmer, Eli Manning, Philip Rivers, Joe Flacco, 730 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 1: all the Ben Roethlisberger. I don't think the average football 731 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 1: fan understands how fucking huge these guys are. Hell. I 732 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: was at Carson Palmer with Carson Palmer at this Fox 733 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: party with Coward three or four years ago, and I 734 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,439 Speaker 1: was like, this guy is huge, and I had seen 735 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 1: him run by in a football game. But when you 736 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: stand a guy in playing clothes, Eli, how massive these 737 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: humans are now a lot of quarterbacks over the last 738 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: several years, Kyler's the Bakers, Bryce Young like these guys 739 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: are small. Like you put you put Bryce Young next 740 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: to Ben Roethlisberger, it would look like putting an average 741 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: NBA player next to Shack. It is dramatically different. And 742 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: Bryce Young got hurt over the weekend, and the two 743 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,720 Speaker 1: a situation like two and now has been hurting college 744 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: and hurting the pros. But I don't like the concussion 745 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 1: thing on Thursday night. Could happen anyone these defensive lineman's 746 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: aiming to the ground. But I want to talk about 747 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: that situation because today on Monday, Mike McDaniel came out 748 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: and said that Tua will not play this week. And 749 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 1: MY first thought is are they just making up the 750 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: rules as we go? Because I said it when it 751 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 1: happened on Thursday night. One, the Dolphins zone deserve the 752 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: benefit of doubt. They have been a clown show organization 753 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,479 Speaker 1: for a long long time. And Two, I didn't blame 754 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel because like a GM in the draft, you 755 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 1: just do as a GM or coach what the doctor 756 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 1: tells you to do. This isn't nineteen eighty seven. I 757 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: can't tell you to rub some dirt on and get 758 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: back in. That's not the way it works anymore. The 759 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: doctor had to clear. Now the doctor get it right 760 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: or wrong, I don't know. I don't pretend to be 761 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: a doctor. I'm not like most of the media pretend 762 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: to have some doctorate medical degree and play doctor on 763 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: Twitter where they are consistently wrong about everything and they 764 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: never apologize for I don't. I don't do that. But 765 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: I said that Mike McDaniel was out of his control. 766 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,720 Speaker 1: Now when you come out and say though on Monday, 767 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: that he's out, like, we still in the concussion protocol 768 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 1: and the MRI came back clean, so he didn't like 769 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 1: break a neck or break a back or anything. So 770 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,720 Speaker 1: what player like when a guy gets concussion on Sunday, 771 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: and I'm sure some happened yesterday. I'm recording this on Monday. 772 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: The coach will come out on Monday and say, well, 773 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: he's in the concussion protocol. We'll see how the week goes. 774 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: And for all of us that follow football, a lot 775 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: of those guys end up clearing Thursday or Friday and 776 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: they play in the game. Some of them don't, and 777 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,439 Speaker 1: they miss a game, but you don't know, like they're 778 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: just saying he's out, So you are you kind of 779 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: acknowledging that something happened that previous week against the Ravens. 780 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 1: Because if it was just a concussion, mri s fine, 781 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 1: you're an extracautious the other time, are you just making 782 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of making up the rules 783 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: as you go when you dictate stuff. It's why I 784 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 1: wasn't comfortable with twenty and twenty one in society. It's 785 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: why this situation I got red flagged. Like I understand, 786 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 1: like if you're in business trying to figure things out 787 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,760 Speaker 1: as you go, but making up like they're just making 788 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,479 Speaker 1: up the rules as they go, I don't blame them, 789 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 1: like he probably should get the week off, But when 790 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,919 Speaker 1: you do this and you claim that he's just out 791 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 1: now on Monday, even though he's in the concussion, what 792 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: if he cleared on Wednesday? You're just arbitrarily gonna say 793 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: you can't go because are you then acknowledging that something 794 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 1: else happened the week before this? When you do this 795 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,760 Speaker 1: to me, you make this whole situation shadier because you're 796 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: giving into pure pressure. Obviously, even though this is one 797 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 1: of the rare situations where I agree with the public 798 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: pushing back, like, you know, not that it wasn't just 799 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,880 Speaker 1: it was very uncomfortable to watch, but four days earlier, 800 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: like we all watch UFC boxing and enough football to 801 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 1: know when you start wobbling, you can't tell me it 802 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: was a nerve in your back. I'm not gonna believe it. 803 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 1: And then he gets an actual concussion, and then on 804 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: Monday you just say he's out for the game. When 805 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 1: does that happen? It doesn't. I mean, that's just that's 806 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,800 Speaker 1: the reality. So you are just like, is the NFL 807 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 1: forcing your hand on this one? It's just, you know, 808 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: this is what journalism should be. I'm not a journalist, 809 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 1: should be investing, asking questions. None of this shit adds up, 810 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: and that's something that's been lost in society. People just 811 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,760 Speaker 1: asking basic questions. And that's all I'm doing, just putting 812 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: on a big Jay hat. So the to A situation 813 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,760 Speaker 1: to me is just weird. Wisconsin they fired their coach. 814 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: Do you know what's crazy about the Big Ten? Is 815 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 1: Wisconsin and Nebraska And basically two and a half three 816 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: weeks fired two coaches and they are paying them both 817 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: a combined thirty one million dollars. Do you know how 818 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,919 Speaker 1: much money is in the SEC and the Big ten? 819 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: When Nebraska decided to fire Scott Frost. If they would 820 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 1: have waited, I think two more weeks, the buyout would 821 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: have dropped from fifteen million to seven million. And they said, yeah, 822 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 1: we don't care, we'll fire him. See you get out 823 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: of here, Wisconsin. The guy won like eleven games three 824 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,720 Speaker 1: or four years ago. He's got a pretty good resume. 825 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: Pretty I think they went nine and four last year. Now, 826 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,479 Speaker 1: I don't blame them. It's not going well. The eye 827 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,399 Speaker 1: test is even worse. But they're paying him. I think 828 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 1: the buyouts sixteen million dollars. So Scott Frost was fifteen. 829 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: This guy's sixteen. They said, get out of our building. 830 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna pay you to not coach. Now that's a 831 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: whole other conversation, but that's because the big agents, mainly 832 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 1: Jimmy Sexton, is so much better business than any of 833 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: these eighties. And school presidents, especially the school presidents, they 834 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 1: have to sign up. They got no clue. It is 835 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:23,280 Speaker 1: such Jimmy Sexton runs college football like it ain't even 836 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: it's not even a debate. And other I don't know 837 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: the other couple big agents. I mean, he's the big 838 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: one in the SEC, but he represents some of the 839 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: big ten coaches as well. Is it ain't a fair fight? 840 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: And these buyouts these guys are getting for failing is 841 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: pretty nuts. I get a lot of dms like could 842 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: Jimbo fire be fired? They're not gonna pay him nine 843 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 1: even team ain't gonna pay him ninety plus million dollars 844 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 1: to go away, like Jimmy Sexton bent techs A and 845 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 1: m over the counter and took him to Poundtown. And 846 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 1: now Jimbo Fisher, who is not trending well, I mean 847 00:42:56,280 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 1: it's you lose the Mississippi State. You losed two who 848 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,919 Speaker 1: they lose to earlier this year, Apple Ash and State, 849 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: Like it's pretty ugly. I mean, Jimbo, you're an offensive guy. 850 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 1: How can you not figure out this quarterback? And these 851 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: two programs like Wisconsin's a pretty good job, Nebraska is 852 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 1: not as good a job. But these programs got cash. 853 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: So anytime you can pay someone eight to ten million dollars, 854 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: there are gonna be a lot of people very interested. 855 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 1: Starting with the dude at Kansas Leopold and obviously Matt 856 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: rule Carson Wentz. I watched a little bit of that game. 857 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: I just think Washington's offensive line is atrocious and Carson's 858 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,760 Speaker 1: not a very good player. Bad combination when your quarterback 859 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: is struggling. I was wrong and kind of bought some 860 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,520 Speaker 1: early stock. Turns out him and Matt Ryan Bosnik their 861 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,720 Speaker 1: offensive line. It's just his quarterback instincts in the pocket 862 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 1: are pretty bad stepping into pass rushes. Now, sometimes a 863 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: guy gets shoved into you, like what are supposed to do? 864 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: Jump over him? But it is ugly. I mean the 865 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 1: Commanders are headed nowhere fast. That that is, that organization 866 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: is in shambles. I'm telling you keep an eye on 867 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 1: Lane Kiffen as the next coach of the Commanders. Brandon 868 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: Staley's defense, they just don't get any better. They added players. 869 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 1: You'd be like, well, Joey Bos's missing, Well they had 870 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 1: a clear mac Derwin James's back. Do they ever make 871 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 1: plays like what is Brandon Staley good at? Beside talking 872 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: to the media behind a microphone? Because do if players 873 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:19,800 Speaker 1: buy into him? Clear, they don't play like that or 874 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: a scheme's great, They don't shut down anybody. He doesn't 875 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: get any credit or positive like he has nothing to 876 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 1: do with the offense. I just I just don't see it. 877 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: And the Chargers, man, they are underachieving again, struggling to 878 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,399 Speaker 1: beat the Texans. Struggling to beat the Texans like that, 879 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: it felt like they were in control. Then I watched 880 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,280 Speaker 1: the second half they were not in control. Is Davis 881 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,280 Speaker 1: Mills good? I don't really know. Luckily, if you're the Texans, 882 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 1: you got a bunch of picks. Good quarterback draft Davis 883 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: Mills probably her backup next year. The Lions the crazy 884 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 1: stat of the day. I thought the Lions would be feisty, 885 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 1: and I've proven to be right. It just turns out 886 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,720 Speaker 1: they don't win any games. They're one and three. They're 887 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,759 Speaker 1: giving up on a for thirty five points a game 888 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 1: through four games. Thirty five points a game. You would 889 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: say if a teams won in three and they're giving 890 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 1: up thirty five points a game, you'd be like their 891 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: point differential through a month would be like minus thirty 892 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: minus forty minus fifty. Right, got blown out in a 893 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: couple of games. Maybe the win they won by seven points, 894 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 1: so you know, if it's if it's minus forty five 895 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 1: you add seven, it'd be like high thirties, thirty eight forty, 896 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: it's minus one. What a weird season. I mean their defense. 897 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 1: I kind of got injured. I didn't have any money 898 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 1: on the game. I was like, I'm not gonna watch 899 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 1: Seattle Detroit. But the game that was high scoring, so 900 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 1: I kept flipping over. Every time I'd flip over or shot, 901 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 1: Penny wouldn't have a big run. Gino would make a play. 902 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: We've all seen some of the stats. Geno stats are 903 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 1: better than Russell stats. And it was just the Lions 904 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: can't tackle Merror, you let alone NFL players. It is 905 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: crazy how bad they are on defense. And the Eagles. 906 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 1: Eagles defensive line is just relentless. If you have a 907 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,760 Speaker 1: bad offensive line, they are going to eat you alive. 908 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I think corner play is pretty overvalued. Now. 909 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 1: Granted the Eagles have Darius Lay and Brad Berry, who 910 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: had a pretty sweet pick yesterday. I'm not saying you 911 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: don't want good corners, but if you just give me 912 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,560 Speaker 1: a great defensive line and a great pass rush, I 913 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 1: think eighty GM worth their salt can figure out the DBS. 914 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: I would invest everything in the defensive line on defense, obviously, 915 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: offensive line and quarterback play. But I'm talking defensively. If 916 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,240 Speaker 1: you can get after the quarterback, you can take advantage 917 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 1: of a lot of teams in this league, because most 918 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 1: teams are not rolling out Trent Williams, Larry Allen and 919 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,439 Speaker 1: Jim Otto right, Anthony Munio's eate walking through that door 920 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 1: from most of Tony Basselli ate and playing left tackle 921 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: for the Jacks. So you are able to take advantage 922 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 1: of the situations because if you have inside pass rush, 923 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: outside pass rush, and they got it all and they 924 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: just took over Trevor Lawrence, why you know, Rainey, Trevor 925 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: just was getting flustered because they were hitting him over 926 00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:58,640 Speaker 1: and over and over again. Eagles are good, man. I 927 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 1: think they play the Cardinals this week. I'm sure they're 928 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: gonna be favored. And they're humming right now. They're rolling birds. 929 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: Birds look fantastic. Okay, let's dive into the middle Coff 930 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 1: mailbag at John Middlecoff firing those d ms. Gave your 931 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,479 Speaker 1: question question I can't even speak answered here on the show. 932 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: Love the show, listening for a few years now. I'm 933 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 1: a lifelong Patriot fan, very lucky to say the least. Yes, 934 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 1: you are watching yesterday, a lot of people I know 935 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,319 Speaker 1: who are also fans were saying Zappy showed a lot. 936 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:33,879 Speaker 1: Maybe Bill is washed and it's time to move on, 937 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 1: move him to the front office and bringing a new 938 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 1: head coach. I couldn't disagree more. I see the problem 939 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: with offensive coaches, and as far as Zappy goes, I 940 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: just don't see it. Wondering if you caught any of 941 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,280 Speaker 1: the game and if you had any takes on Zappy's 942 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 1: performance or if Bill is in the decline. I watched 943 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 1: back and forth that game in the Raider game. I 944 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,320 Speaker 1: mean I have multiple TVs, but I was more locked 945 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:02,800 Speaker 1: in on the Raider Game. I mean, Zappy, what's crazy? 946 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: You go from Tom that just throws lasers to mack 947 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 1: Hoyer and Zappy and you know, Zappy's arms, Okay, I 948 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 1: you know, listen for he was a third string quarterback 949 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 1: seven days ago, so to come in off the bench 950 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 1: and Lambeau. I think it's a pretty impressive performance. And 951 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 1: at the end of the game, they're like run run pass, run, 952 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: run pass. That's a hard situation to be in. I 953 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: would not just be like, you know, maybe Zappy's the 954 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 1: next Cooper Rush like more than likely he's gonna be 955 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 1: average to below blow let's say. I mean they would 956 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: die for him to be average. I thought Belichick's brought 957 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 1: it yesterday for sure. I mean, defensively, they were fantastic. 958 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: They came in and they hit the Packers in the mouth, 959 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: and if they didn't get conservative at the end of 960 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: the game, maybe they could have won it. I thought 961 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 1: Bill kind of pussed out at the end of the game. 962 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: Bill still has the fire. Yesterday he was dialed. I 963 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: mean he was into that game when that play happened. 964 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 1: With the fumble. I hate that rule too. To me, 965 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: if you catch the ball in the end zone, it 966 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: should be an immediate touchdown. You shouldn't have to prove 967 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,399 Speaker 1: you're making a play on the ball right or come 968 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 1: to the two steps or control the ball or whatever 969 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 1: this specific verbiage is on the rule. To be in 970 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 1: the end zone is different than the field to play. 971 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: No different than if I catch it, put it over 972 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: and then I fumble, it's a touchdown. It should be 973 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,359 Speaker 1: the same thing. But Bill freaked out because they got 974 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: to reset the clock and they got more time, and 975 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,400 Speaker 1: I thought Bill was pretty dialed. Now, you say the 976 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 1: problem is their offensive coaches Bill hire those guys? Why 977 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:32,360 Speaker 1: would Bill hire Matt Patrician Joe Judge to deal with 978 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,839 Speaker 1: the offensive line, the play calling in the quarterback like 979 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: that's on him now? Maybe because he knows they weren't 980 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 1: gonna be that good and he knows those two guys 981 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 1: love the misery of the Patriots. I don't know, but 982 00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:47,959 Speaker 1: I do think it's trending. He's seventy seventy one years old, 983 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:51,560 Speaker 1: so if they're not gonna win that much anymore, I 984 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 1: think time is not really on his side. If I'm 985 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 1: Bob Kraft, why not just kind of start over now? 986 00:49:58,040 --> 00:49:59,720 Speaker 1: They have a lot of money, so they could afford 987 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 1: to someone. I do wonder unless you're willing to pay 988 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: a shitload of money, who's interested in following Bill Belichick's 989 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:10,480 Speaker 1: shoes with a roster that isn't that great? So like, 990 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,359 Speaker 1: who would they hire now? I don't think Bill wants 991 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 1: to retire anytime soon, but yeah, it's a little weird 992 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: for sure. Not sure if this is where I send 993 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:27,240 Speaker 1: the mailbag stuff, but wanted to take on Nate Hackett 994 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: to get fired in year one. I heard Coward say 995 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: this on his podcast, and he says that Russell and 996 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,800 Speaker 1: his agent are now trapped again, and it's like, love Colin, 997 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 1: but I gotta push back on that. They pushed for 998 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:46,320 Speaker 1: this trade, and Benjamin Albright, who is literally around the team, 999 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 1: acknowledged that this individual coach Nate Hackett was obviously on 1000 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers shortlist, but he was also approved by Russell 1001 00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: Wilson's team, giving his agent and Russell Wilson. So Russell 1002 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: signed up for this. When are we gonna put the 1003 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 1: disaster on Russell Wilson? Is Nate Hackett good? No? But 1004 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 1: Russell or any of these offensive coordinators good. He always 1005 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,919 Speaker 1: gets these guys fired. Now Is Russell Wilson good? That's 1006 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 1: my question. There were some plays against the Raiders where 1007 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: he throws these bombs. It ain't DK or Tyler Lockett anymore. 1008 00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: These wide receivers are good, it's just not the same 1009 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: those balls. Those deep throws used to get caught. They 1010 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: no longer do. So I do question whether Russell is 1011 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:35,839 Speaker 1: still an elite player. I think he's still pretty good. 1012 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 1: But right now, if you had to put an arrow 1013 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 1: on him, would you go neutral, trending up or trending down? 1014 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 1: I think we would all come to an agreement. He 1015 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 1: is trending the wrong way, And yeah, if he plays poorly, 1016 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 1: he's going to get Nate Hackett fired. This owner paid 1017 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 1: four and a half billion dollars, did not hire Nate Hackett. 1018 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,239 Speaker 1: Wasn't there when they hired Nate Hackett. So I think 1019 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 1: this thing could end very fast if they don't start 1020 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 1: winning games. Now they're gonna be home this Thursday. Anytime 1021 00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:08,280 Speaker 1: you have a home Thursday game, you should win, especially 1022 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:12,400 Speaker 1: the Colts who are not very good. Hey, John, what 1023 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 1: is the actual chance that Cliff and Steve Kim get 1024 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 1: fired at the end of the year. If only they'd 1025 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,839 Speaker 1: fired him in season, it'd be better, just bo Both 1026 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: just received five year extensions last off season. But the 1027 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 1: Cardinals legitimately look like the worst team in football. Halfway 1028 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 1: through the Week four game. Week four, they are the 1029 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: only team who has never led in a game. They 1030 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:38,879 Speaker 1: won in overtime on a defensive touchdown. Well, they ended 1031 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: up beating Carolina. Obviously, you can't watch the Cardinals now. 1032 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:45,600 Speaker 1: Kyler pulled some plays out of his butt at the 1033 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 1: end of the game because he's the most talented guy 1034 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 1: in the field. But you watch them and you go 1035 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:54,160 Speaker 1: something's off. Because they were an eleven team win with 1036 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:55,840 Speaker 1: squad last year for a reason. They do have a 1037 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 1: bunch of talent. Now they are getting Hopkins back in 1038 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: a couple of games. But when you watched them play 1039 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 1: and I listen, I can make fun of him. Guys 1040 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 1: chirp at each other. People yell at me. I yell 1041 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:13,760 Speaker 1: at people like high you know, driven, highly caffeinated, highly 1042 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 1: competitive people yell at each other. So Cliff and Kyler 1043 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: yelling at each other doesn't bother me as much as some. 1044 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: But they are Like, is Cliff resentful that he got paid? 1045 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:27,239 Speaker 1: Is he resentful because he hasn't changed? I don't know. Now. 1046 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: Panther's defense isn't bad, but that game was ugly. I 1047 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 1: mean that that was a very very ugly watch. Yeah. 1048 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 1: I don't really know what else to say, but I 1049 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna get fired. No, to answer your question, 1050 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: just got done watching Tennessee versus Florida. This is a 1051 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: little old. If Florida had just kicked extra points, they 1052 00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 1: would have had a much better chance to tie the 1053 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,720 Speaker 1: game with a field goal on their last possession instead 1054 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 1: of having to get a touchdown. I know coaches have 1055 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 1: charts that tell them when they should go for two. 1056 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,719 Speaker 1: Maybe it's just hindsight is twenty twenty for me, But 1057 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 1: do you think coaches rely too much on these charts 1058 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 1: at the end of games and cost their teams chance 1059 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 1: to win. I think teams are so much more inclined 1060 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 1: to go for it because you get so much more 1061 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 1: credit publicly. Like I've been saying, the media supports you 1062 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 1: when you make these reckless decisions, even though the fans go, 1063 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: we just lost because you went forward on the fourth 1064 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 1: and two instead of just kicking the field goal that 1065 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:26,359 Speaker 1: would have tied the game. And then the coach comes 1066 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 1: out and says, well, I didn't want to tie the 1067 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 1: game with only a minute left because if they might 1068 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: have drove the field and scored, what if they didn't 1069 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 1: you went to overtime, Like don't you want to take 1070 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 1: your chances of just surviving. I'm all for playing to win, 1071 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,359 Speaker 1: But when you go forward on fourth down instead of 1072 00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 1: taking the lead in a game, and then your quarterback 1073 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 1: throws a pick like it's not good because not only 1074 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 1: did you not give them the ball at the two yard, 1075 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 1: they got the ball at the twenty, I think some 1076 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 1: of these sometimes these decisions are just reckless and it's 1077 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 1: so easy to use the chart as the crutch. Well 1078 00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 1: the chart, well the chart. You know a lot of 1079 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,319 Speaker 1: people do this in life. They have like a mentality 1080 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 1: that they go, oh, you know, it's just you know, 1081 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 1: I got fired five years ago. Yeah it's five years ago, 1082 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 1: Like what are you doing now? Oh yeah, this happened 1083 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 1: to me three years ago. Well yeah it's twenty twenty two. 1084 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,839 Speaker 1: That was twenty eighteen. I'm all four. If something bad 1085 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: happens like last week, like give me some time, lose 1086 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 1: a parents, get fired, like bat shit happens to all 1087 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 1: of us when we least expected, you know, break a leg, 1088 00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,960 Speaker 1: Terry Racl playing pick up hoops. Who knows is life? 1089 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,319 Speaker 1: And I could get hit by a bus tomorrow. No 1090 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 1: one knows what's gonna happen. I despise people though, that 1091 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,680 Speaker 1: use things as crutches, and I think coaches are starting 1092 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: to do this with the chart. It's like, guys, we're 1093 00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 1: all watching the game, just kick the fucking field goal. 1094 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 1: You know, now you're down five points, you gotta go 1095 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 1: four and fourth down with four minutes left at midfield. 1096 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:52,000 Speaker 1: I get that, but the guy, you know, well, you know, 1097 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,920 Speaker 1: it just was dealt the rough hand in life. You know, 1098 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 1: I just grew up. You know, my parents split up 1099 00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 1: when I was seven. It's like, yeah, you're forty two, 1100 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,600 Speaker 1: like gonna get a job or you're gonna just keep 1101 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 1: pounding around, you know. It's like, hey, yeah, John, we 1102 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: get it. You lost. Just kick the field goal man. 1103 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 1: Stop using this chart as a crutch. That really is 1104 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,080 Speaker 1: bothering me because I think it's such a cop out 1105 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,560 Speaker 1: for poor decisions. I say it all the time with 1106 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:23,160 Speaker 1: players like I lean physically gifted guys, but sometimes you 1107 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 1: gotta use your instincts. And some players Mahomes his instincts 1108 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 1: are elite, no different as a coach, Like, sometimes you 1109 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 1: gotta use your gut. Feel every person alive, screamed at 1110 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 1: the television beside Seattle Seahawks fans call a time out. 1111 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:42,880 Speaker 1: You know what Bill did. He looked across the field, 1112 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 1: saw chaos and stood there and basically smiled inside. Did 1113 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:51,839 Speaker 1: not call a time out? Why he used forty plus 1114 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 1: years of instincts. You know what he did? He won 1115 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. So like, I'm a huge believer, like, 1116 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 1: you gotta trust your gut, and sometimes these guys, like 1117 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 1: if I just if all of us just focused on. 1118 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:10,360 Speaker 1: This went to business school supply demand, took accounting classes, 1119 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 1: first in, first out. We just operate exactly like the 1120 00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:15,720 Speaker 1: book told us. Every single person in business, we'd all 1121 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 1: be in the gutter. You know why America and Amazon 1122 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 1: and Apple and these companies exist because people trusted their gut. 1123 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: When a lot of people and it's not gonna work, Well, 1124 00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 1: wat's this right? Well the you know, the the Excel 1125 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 1: spreadsheet would tell you you gotta do this. Well, actually, 1126 00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do that. Most people early on would have 1127 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 1: been like, do you know, Bezos nineteen ninety seven, you're 1128 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: headed in the right direction. Good idea, Steve Jobs. You're 1129 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:44,840 Speaker 1: gonna make a phone that's gonna basically be like a computer. 1130 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 1: You nut what? No one's gonna want that? Hey, John, 1131 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:53,919 Speaker 1: how about this novel concept? Kick a field goal three 1132 00:57:53,960 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 1: points better than zero? Okay, audios everybody, and uh, talk 1133 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 1: to you guys later this week. Peace. The volume
