Thursday afternoon before my men's league basketball game, 15 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,160 Speaker 3: I was so gassed, and we ended up winning. 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: I know, you don't care. 17 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 3: I it was actually the tougher league, and I had 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 3: been struggling in the first two games, and I had 19 00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 3: a couple threes in this one, which was nice. 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 4: Again. 21 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 3: The USC point guard, former USC point guard, he's very strong. 22 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 3: He was misseds some guys. We didn't have a couple guys. 23 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 2: Overall. 24 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 3: You know, good game, we won handily, but you know, 25 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 3: Super Bowl weekend is here, and I'm like you know 26 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 3: it's it's just a weird super Bowl. We got Matt Hasselbeck, 27 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 3: former Seahawks quarterback, coming on the show a little bit 28 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 3: later to talk about Drake May and youth sports. If 29 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 3: you're into that, I love you know, I love youth sports. 30 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 3: A lot of dad listening to this podcast and a 31 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 3: couple of moms literally too. And I think you like 32 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 3: what Hassleback has to say. We talk Super Bowl MVP potential. 33 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 3: I have a surprise name for you. I will be 34 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 3: doing props in a little bit and my official pick 35 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: and all that fun stuff. I did write up props 36 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 3: for the site. It went up posted. You could tell 37 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 3: which way I'm leading on the game if you haven't 38 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,559 Speaker 3: been paying attention. And before I get to that, though, 39 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 3: as I watched the Lakers Sixers final minutes here Lakers 40 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 3: great comeback in the fourth quarter, Luca out in the 41 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 3: second half with a leg injury, Austin Reeves and trying 42 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 3: to hold it down. But before we get to that, 43 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 3: I just need to quickly talk about this MVP voting. 44 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 3: So Thursday night at some NFL award show in San 45 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 3: Fran Yes I'm gonna say San Fran, sorry, not SF 46 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 3: or San Francisco. It's just easier to say San Fran. 47 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 3: I don't care that people don't like San Fran, like 48 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 3: I don't care if you. When I moved out here, 49 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 3: somebody told me, oh, you can't say so Cal. I'm like, 50 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 3: why it's so much either than Southern California. I like 51 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 3: to abbreviate stuff anyway. MVP voting, this is how it went. 52 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford twenty four votes, Drake May twenty three votes, 53 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: Josh Allen two votes, Justin Herbert one vote, and there's 54 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 3: all this Ajeta in New England. How could you vote 55 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 3: for Justin Herbert? Oh my gosh, you ruined it. We 56 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: should have had a tie. So the last tie was 57 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 3: in two thousand and three, Peyton Manning and Steve Air 58 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 3: McNair shared award, and one could argue, yeah, like I 59 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 3: don't get the Herbert vote. 60 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: I will quickly point out a. 61 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 3: Couple of analytics say that Justin Herbert had no business 62 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 3: being near the MVP. According to Pro Football Focus, Justin 63 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: Herbert was the eleventh best quarterback. Drake May was six 64 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 3: according to EPA at the website running backs still don't Matter. 65 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 3: It's actually a pretty good site, Drake May was the 66 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 3: number one EPA quarterback. Now we did talk about that, 67 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 3: I think before the final, before the AFC Championship, about 68 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: how he weirdly became the number one EPA quarterback because 69 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 3: he took forty seven sacks, which is a ton for 70 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 3: a guy who's the number one EPA quarterback. But he 71 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 3: thrived on big plays, quarterback scrambles and its completion percentage. 72 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: You kind of hacked EPA. Anyways, in EPA, May was one, 73 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: PERTY was two, Stafford five, Herbert sixteen. So by some analytics, 74 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 3: Herbert had no biness being near the MVP. But the 75 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 3: guy who voted for Herbert, Sam Monson, He's been on 76 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 3: this podcast. He's a former pro football focused guy. His 77 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 3: logic was essentially, hey man, justin Herbert didn't have his 78 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: two tackles and performed heroically. 79 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 2: He was amazing. 80 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 3: The second Stafford's offensive line broke down, he was playing 81 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 3: like a really poor quarterback and his numbers showed that. 82 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 3: So I don't want to go overboard with hey man, 83 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 3: this guy was way wrong with this justin Herbert nonsense. 84 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 3: I thought Herbert was excellent. He had a great regular season. 85 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 3: Remember it's a regular season. 86 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: Award. 87 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: Drake May was good. I didn't think he was amazing. 88 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 3: He did lead the league in completion of percentage, and 89 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 3: the big plays obviously helped. I thought Josh Allen was fantastic. 90 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 3: I just thought it was Stafford. I thought Stafford was 91 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 3: the guy. And I can't hate voting for Herbert in 92 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 3: this spot, like was Herbert. If you asked me Jay Mackay, 93 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 3: Herbert or May, who you got, who would you take? 94 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: I'm just being honest. I would take Herbert now, who 95 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 3: had the better season. I would lean May. But is 96 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: that skewed because of the postseason. If we did this 97 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 3: vote publicly right after the regular season and they handed 98 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 3: out the award right after the regular season, I don't 99 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 3: think we would have this much issue with it. 100 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 2: Now. May is in the Super Bowl. 101 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 3: Which has everybody all fired up. He threw for like 102 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 3: eighty yards in the AFC Championship game. He complete a 103 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,799 Speaker 3: percentage in the three playoff games was like fifty seven 104 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: percent or something. Let's not act like May's been great 105 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 3: this postseason. 106 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: But Jay Weather, what about the weather? 107 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 3: Just like subtle down, guys, it's all the as Hasselback 108 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 3: will use the word massholes getting fired up about Drake 109 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 3: May not being an MVP. 110 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: Whatever. 111 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 3: Anyways, the big news with Stafford said he's coming back 112 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 3: next year, which should be a no surprise to anyone. 113 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 3: Obviously he's coming back. You don't win the MVP and 114 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 3: then retire. I mean, you retire when you're like Peyton 115 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 3: Manning and washed and you win the Super Bowl to Broncos. 116 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 3: That's okay, time to retire. So I definitely don't disagree 117 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 3: with the Stafford MVP, and I. 118 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: Don't disagree with the Herbert vote. 119 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 3: I mean, listen, the guy what Herbert as MVP over May, 120 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 3: and I don't think that's the worst. I don't think 121 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 3: that's the most egregious decision in NFL voting history. 122 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 123 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,239 Speaker 1: the nation.

Austin reeves thirty five 129 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 3: points in twenty five minutes off the bench. This Luca 130 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 3: thigh hamstring situation doesn't sound great. Almost certainly will not 131 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: play against the Warriors Saturday night. Steph Curry, by the way, 132 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 3: sat out last night against the Suns. I'm assuming they 133 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: want him one hundred percent fresh for the big game 134 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: Saturday against the Lakers. And my guess is you just 135 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: shut Luca down through the All Star break. I guess 136 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 3: he We don't need him playing any All Star game, 137 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 3: just we need him for for the second half. You know, 138 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: Lakers are on a good spot in the West. I've 139 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 3: got a legit chance to get a top four seed 140 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 3: and home court advantage as of now. This SGA injury, 141 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: I do wonder if the Spurs could could chase him 142 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 3: down where it like the fifty game mark, there's like 143 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 3: thirty games left. SGA probably out two weeks. We'll see 144 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 3: with the abb they surely don't want to force anything. 145 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 3: The Nuggets can't stay healthy. I saw Peyton Watson just 146 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,679 Speaker 3: went down. He's gonna be out a couple of weeks, 147 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 3: maybe longer. Houston crumbling a little bit, so Lakers right there, 148 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 3: four or five? You get the four, I mean, obviously 149 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: you'd be ideally you get the three. You want to 150 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 3: avoid OKC in the second round, but it's a logjam there. Rockets, Lakers, 151 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: Wolves all right about the same spot. I think we 152 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 3: would assume the Suns will fade a little, but real quick. 153 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 3: So Jannis did not get dealt and Giannis, I don't 154 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 3: know this is I don't think this is a great 155 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 3: look for him. You guys, tell me what you think. 156 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 3: So after the trade deadline passed, Jannis goes on Twitter 157 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 3: and like, I mean, I just don't really understand why 158 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 3: he would do this, But like, everybody knows you want 159 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 3: out of Milwaukee. It's like the worst kept secret in 160 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,119 Speaker 3: the league. Everybody knows it. So he goes out after 161 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 3: the trade deadline and writes, legends don't chase. They attract 162 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 3: one hundred like the one keep it one hundred emoji 163 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: and then the sunglasses with the shades emoji, and then 164 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 3: Luke Luca Leonardo DiCaprio from Wolf of Wall Street saying. 165 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm not leaving. 166 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 2: I'm not ever going anywhere. 167 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 3: What are you doing, dude? Everybody knows you're not gonna 168 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 3: be there. You can act like this, but the Bucks 169 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 3: don't want you to play. They want to tank for 170 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: as high a pick as possible. They don't want you 171 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 3: coming back because you're not staying. It's so goofy. And 172 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 3: for these reporters to be out there like it's a 173 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 3: three team race, it was a no team race. 174 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 2: Nobody was off or anything. 175 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 4: Good. 176 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 3: Warriors get not even close. I never bought bought the 177 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 3: Warrior smoke. The Minnesota stuff kind of sort of made 178 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 3: some sense. Miami Heat stuff was never even close. So 179 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 3: now the team to watch, if we're being one thousand 180 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 3: percent honest, is the Los Angeles Lakers. 181 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: In the summer. 182 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 3: They're gonna have something like eighty million dollars coming off 183 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 3: the books. Guys, they're gonna have the money for Gianni's. 184 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 3: The problem is is Austin reeves and you know, three 185 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 3: or four number ones and whatever else they've got. Is 186 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 3: that gonna cut it? Or can someone blow that out 187 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 3: of the water. I would take keep an eye on 188 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 3: the Orlando Magic and Palo Banko. If they flame out 189 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 3: of the playoffs early, they're gonna do something. I know 190 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 3: people don't think, oh, Orlando, Jy's not gonna go. 191 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't he go there? 192 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 4: You're in the East. 193 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 3: The Florida's a great tax date, you save even more money. 194 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 3: And they got a damn good roster. I mean, they 195 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 3: just can't really get it together right now. Seventh in 196 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 3: the in the lowly East, but they easily could go 197 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 3: up as high as four with the second half, with 198 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 3: all the talent they have. The big trade that went 199 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 3: down Thursday was the LA Clippers. So a day or 200 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 3: a two days after trading James Harden, they decide we 201 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 3: are gonna move Aviza Zubac to the Indiana Pacers. 202 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 2: Now Zubak is a really good center. I don't know 203 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: if he's like a top seven center in the league 204 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: something around there. But he goes to Indiana. 205 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 3: Remember they lost Miles Turner, obviously he's on the Bucks. 206 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 3: Now Zubats goes to the Pacers. Here's what Indiana had 207 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 3: to give up, though, Ben Matherin, who I like a 208 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 3: lot to get from Arizona Isaiah Jackson, two first round picks, 209 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 3: one second round pick. 210 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 4: Oh. 211 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 3: Also they get the Pacers get Kobe Brown. So my 212 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 3: issue with Ben Matherin is that he's only been in 213 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 3: the league for four years. He's twenty three to twenty 214 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 3: four years old. 215 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 2: Why are you giving up on him so early? 216 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 3: Now, I get it, you needed a center for next season, right, 217 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 3: You've got to get somebody to replace Miles Turner. Now, 218 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 3: Miles Turner was a stretch center, could go out and 219 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 3: hit through. Did not have a great series in the 220 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 3: finals against Okac. Obviously, he's really good u Zubats. But 221 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 3: without Miles Turner, Indiana just like they wreaked twenty eighth 222 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 3: in the league in points allowed in the paint this year, 223 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: they can't stop anybody. So Zubats is a really good center. 224 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: He's perfect for Halliburton on the pick and roll. He's 225 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 3: a really I mean. 226 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 2: The Lakers had him back in the day. 227 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 4: He was good. 228 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: They whiffed giving up on him. I think he's a 229 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 3: good player. My thing is, I really like Matherin a lot. 230 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 3: I think a Matherin Garland backcourt is pretty damn spicy. 231 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 3: I mean, Matherin's good, averaging seventeen and five this season. Now, 232 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 3: he said the final year of his rookie deal. Obviously, 233 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 3: Indiana was reluctant to extend him. I don't totally understand why. 234 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 3: I'm sure some Pacers fans who are in the know 235 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 3: could tell me. You know, they've got some some other 236 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 3: guys they've drafted who are really good and young, and 237 00:11:58,880 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 3: obviously Nemhard. 238 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 2: I love TJ. McConnell, quintessential reserve. 239 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 3: Nie Smith is kind of in his position, not as 240 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 3: offensive minded, but a better defender. Ben Shephard is young 241 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: and promising. I like Cam Jones, the kid out of Marquette, 242 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 3: but he hasn't shown much yet. Again, he's super young. 243 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 3: I mean, well, he's only twenty three, but he's it 244 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 3: is his first year in the league. But they clearly 245 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 3: like something, and they're trying this kid, Johnny Furfey from Kansas, 246 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 3: who I don't really know what we I don't think 247 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 3: anybody can know what he is. Matherin is a bucket. 248 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 3: Maybe there's some maturity issues there, but Matherin and Garland 249 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 3: is that not bad foundation for the paper clips? And 250 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 3: you're buying low on a guy similar to how the 251 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 3: Pistons gave up on Jade and Ivy. I think Jade 252 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 3: and Ivy could be some those guys. These guys are 253 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 3: not in their prime yet. NBA prime is closer to 254 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 3: like twenty seven to twenty eight, twenty nine, especially for 255 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 3: these guards. 256 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 2: Twenty four. 257 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 3: You're still young, You're still learning how to play, so 258 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 3: I don't I don't hate that deal at all. I 259 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 3: think both teams are kind of win win. Obviously, Saturday 260 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 3: night is a big night in the NBA, and then 261 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: the NBA will like kind of move to the side 262 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 3: on Sunday for the Super Bowl. And with that, let's 263 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 3: move to our guest, Matt Hasselback, former NFL quarterback. 264 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 1: You know, Jason likes to think he knows everything when 265 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: it comes to sports. I know what sports fans want, 266 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: but for everything he doesn't. He knows a guy who does. 267 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 5: Let's just say I know a guy who knows the 268 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 5: guy who knows another guy. 269 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 2: All right, let's welcome into straight fire. A legendary quarterback. 270 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 3: He's this is some week for him, his Seahawks in 271 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. Matt Hasselbeck. I see him every week 272 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 3: on The Herd. I think I've interviewed him once or twice. Maybe, Matt, 273 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 3: I don't know. 274 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 4: Cut you mic man, They cut your mic. 275 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you say so many inflammatory things. I'm trying 276 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 3: to jump in there and tell cow Herd he's wrong, 277 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 3: but I gotta I gotta pas right where Jason wisraw. 278 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been wrong about the Seahawks a lot. 279 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 3: I gotta be honest. 280 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 2: I know he's your guy. 281 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 3: The only question for me Seattle blowout, Seattle close game 282 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 3: is Sam Darnold. And you've seen a lot of quarterbacks 283 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 3: in your time. I can't recall anybody I've seen go 284 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 3: through this high pick. Big Lows looked like he was 285 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 3: gonna be like a back up the rest of his career, 286 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 3: and now maybe he's gonna be like a Super Bowl MVP. 287 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: This is like movie stuff. 288 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, but let's go back. Okay, he was played at USC. 289 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 5: Quite honestly, I don't think he was pro ready. That 290 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 5: offense not to throw stray bullets, but like that offense 291 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 5: didn't prepare you for the NFL. 292 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 4: And he was like twenty years old. 293 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 5: I mean, he couldn't buy a beer and he's playing 294 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 5: for the Jets, like can't rent a car, and he's like, oh, 295 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 5: but here are the keys to the Jets. You know, 296 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 5: Like doesn't make sense they had Josh McCowan on the roster. 297 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 5: He's the perfect like tape be the punching bag, show 298 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 5: me how to be a pro quarterback. 299 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 4: He's the perfect guy. 300 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 5: Andy Reid did it for Donovan McNabb with Doug Peterson. 301 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 4: Hey day, Doug, go take a beating on our team. 302 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 5: That's not quite ready yet, and then Donovan learned from 303 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 5: him all year and then you bring your all world 304 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 5: ability and then we're cooking right. 305 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 4: I mean, you see it happened. Patrick Mahomes sat behind 306 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 4: Alex Smith did the same thing whole season. So the 307 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 4: fact that they. 308 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 5: Just the Jets, surprise, surprise, they don't know what they're 309 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 5: doing with the quarterback, like, hey, here you go, help us. 310 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 4: Twitter said that you're supposed to start. Everyone else is starting. 311 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 4: Here you go. Peyton Manning once said you have to 312 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 4: play to learn. 313 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 5: You're like, it's different, it's not everyone's the same situation, 314 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 5: and he was not ready to go. 315 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 4: So, yes, it was rocky. 316 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 5: He took a step back to go to to San 317 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 5: Francisco to get under the Kyle Shannon and Tutelage take 318 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 5: a deep breath, one step back, two steps forward with 319 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 5: Minnesota and now here we are way ahead in Seattle. 320 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's weird because you're a Boston guy. Sorry, you know, 321 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 3: I'm not a Massachusetts dude. I was born in New York, 322 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: so I don't like any of those teams. 323 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 4: They're called assholes. By the way, Yes, I'm well aware 324 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 4: of it. 325 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 3: You can say I'm assuming you grew up, you know, 326 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 3: high school legend, Boston College guy. You were thinking like, hey, man, 327 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 3: I'd love to play for the Patriots. One day. 328 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: We did that cross your moh on once or twice. 329 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 5: Well, so my dad was drafted to the New England Patriots. 330 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 5: He played at Colorado, was the second round pick tight end. 331 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 5: He was kind of gronk before there was a gronk 332 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 5: in my mind when I watch him play. I love 333 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 5: the Patriots until the Patriots traded my dad to the 334 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 5: LA Raiders. Then I was mad at the Patriots. But 335 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 5: then the Raiders we won Super Bowl eighteen with Marcus 336 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 5: Allen and all those guys, So then I forgave the Patriots. 337 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 5: And then he went to the Minnesota Vikings and that 338 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 5: was super fun. The third string quarterback was Archie Manning, 339 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 5: so me and Cooper Manning and Peyton Manning and my 340 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 5: brother we were all friends. 341 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 4: It was a great year. 342 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 5: The Vikings stunk that year, but we had fun. So 343 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 5: I'm like, ey, the Vikings are cool. Well, after one 344 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 5: year there Bill Parcells and company, who would coach my 345 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 5: dad originally with the Patriots, said hey, come to the 346 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 5: New York Giants and mentor Mark Bavarro and so the 347 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 5: Giants were my team till my dad was done playing 348 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 5: for them, and then I was a Giants fan for 349 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 5: most of my life after that. But then I was 350 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 5: a ball boy for the Patriots. It's you know, right 351 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 5: before college in high school and then I love the 352 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 5: Patriots again. 353 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 4: And so like you know, when you're in football. 354 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 5: These these like these ebbs and flows of who you 355 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 5: root for, they go. But it is special for me 356 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 5: for this Super Bowl to be, you know, my old 357 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 5: team against my dad's old team. 358 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 4: My dad passed away in April. 359 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 5: So the fact that two teams that weren't even in 360 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 5: the playoffs last year, these two teams of all are 361 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 5: the are in the Super Bowl is is a kind 362 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 5: of a cool thing for us. 363 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 3: And you're joining us courtesy of the Family Heart Foundation. 364 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 3: Obviously you know your dad's tragic passing. How'd you guys 365 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 3: partner up? 366 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 4: So when my dad passed away, he just turned seventy. 367 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 5: He's in like great shape, he's like a crossfitter, he 368 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 5: looks great, all this stuff. He just he had a 369 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 5: heart attack cutting his grass, something he loved to do. 370 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 5: And my mom encouraged me and my brothers. She was like, boys, 371 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 5: can you please go get screened, have your heart screened, 372 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 5: blood pressure check, cholesterol checked. 373 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 4: All the stuff. 374 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 5: And I was, I feel like I'm in good shape. 375 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 5: I was shocked to find out that my LDL cholesterol 376 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 5: was high. And what I learned is that your LDL cholesterol, 377 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 5: it's invisible. It's not necessarily because of diet and exercise. 378 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 5: It can be genetic and there's really no way of 379 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 5: knowing unless you get screened. And so if your LDL 380 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 5: cholesterol is not in that safe zone, if it's a 381 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 5: little high, you're at much greater risk for. 382 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 4: A cardios cardiovascular. 383 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 5: Event or a stroke or dementia or something like that. 384 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 5: And so, you know, I think I'm so glad that 385 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 5: that my mom asked us to get screened. Quite honestly, 386 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 5: when she asked us, I kind of in my head 387 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 5: rolled my eyes, but I wanted to honor my mom, 388 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 5: so I said, okay, Mom, I will. It's ten minutes. 389 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 5: It's free to get your cholesterol checked. It's very simple, 390 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 5: ten minutes, like whatever, Mom, I know the numbers will 391 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,199 Speaker 5: come back great, and they didn't. 392 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 4: So yeah, and so that's it. 393 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 5: So cholesterolconnect dot Org is the Family Heart Foundation's website 394 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 5: you can sign up to get a free cholesterol screening 395 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 5: thing super easy and it could be very important. 396 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, listen, I'm a little younger than you, but 397 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 3: not that much younger than you. And I know some 398 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 3: dads who are like, the LDL is super high and 399 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 3: it's scary because everybody's in. 400 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 2: Good shape and you just don't know. 401 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 3: I will say the times I've spoken to you when 402 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 3: you've been on set unheard. Your family is obviously a 403 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: ton of like great athletes, and your kids, your brothers, 404 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 3: every everybody. I'm just curious, where are you, and this 405 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 3: is out of left field. Where are you on you sports? 406 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 3: And like do you do multiple sports? Do you focus 407 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 3: on one? Like because that's like a big topic as 408 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 3: my kids getting to become teenagers. 409 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, second grade. 410 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 5: If you don't know what sport you're going to be 411 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 5: best out as an adult by second grade, then give up, 412 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 5: move to Romania and be a gymnast. 413 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 4: Okay, second grade, No. 414 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 5: I listen, it's it's crazy, Okay, diversify the sport will 415 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 5: choose you. If I got to choose the sport when 416 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 5: I was a freshman in high school, I would have said, 417 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 5: I'm the next Roger Clemons. I'm going to be a 418 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 5: baseball pitcher pitching for the Red Sox, and if not, 419 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 5: I'm Larry Bird playing for the Celtics. 420 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 4: But the sport chose me. 421 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 5: I think most people, the sport chooses you diversify. My 422 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 5: girls the rule in our house growing up, you I 423 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 5: had to play a different sport every season. Now you 424 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 5: could stay playing a sport club or town or in 425 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 5: the yard or whatever, but you got to play multiple 426 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 5: sports for a lot of different reasons. Sometimes you're the 427 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 5: best player on the team and that's in one sport. 428 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 5: Other times you're the worst player on the team. It's 429 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 5: good to know what kind of teammate you're going to 430 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 5: be when you're the star player or you're the worst player. 431 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 4: There's a lot of value in that. 432 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 5: And so you know, my girls, you mentioned it, they 433 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 5: had very, very successful lacrosse careers. My oldest daughter, Annabelle, 434 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 5: she played lacross at Boston College, four national championships in 435 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 5: four years, one two lost to my middle daughter Mallory, 436 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 5: four years at BC, doing a fifth year at Stanford. 437 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 5: My son Henry College quarterback. So I mean it's I 438 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 5: do think the diversify thing is important. And there's a 439 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 5: lot of parents that I think want to go that route, 440 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 5: but they don't know if they can. I would encourage 441 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 5: you their strengthen numbers do it push. 442 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 3: Back, but like, obviously you're an outlier because you were 443 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 3: a pro athlete. But a lot of these parents are like, 444 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 3: oh my gosh, I got to keep up with the 445 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 3: with the other kids who are focusing on just one 446 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 3: sport year round, as opposed to, hey, let me do 447 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 3: swimming in soccer and basketball. I got to focus on 448 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 3: one sport, And what do you do with I know 449 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 3: that the keeping up thing is is not a great look, 450 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 3: but it's kind of a thing, you know. 451 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, and I'll tell you you kind of are 452 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 5: year round. Like my girls were way into AAU basketball 453 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 5: like way. Like my oldest thought she was going to 454 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 5: be super bird, was sure of it. But we didn't 455 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 5: play club AAU basketball year round. But she was in 456 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 5: the driveway year round. Yeah, you know, but that's on her, 457 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 5: Like she's got to care about it more than I 458 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 5: care about it. She's got to be the one out 459 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 5: there doing free throws and shooting threes and working on 460 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 5: her dribbling and all the stuff. And so you know, 461 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 5: usually it's like what your friends are into. Also, you know, 462 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 5: that can be a little bit of a thing too. 463 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 5: So you know, as I moved around, I played for 464 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 5: the Seahawks and then the Titans and then the Colts. 465 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 4: I feel like my. 466 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,959 Speaker 5: Kids' sports were sort of regional, like what sports are 467 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 5: the people they're playing? Little bit and then what sports 468 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 5: are your best friends playing. That's another side of it too, 469 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 5: But uh no, I do. I do firmly believe that diversifying, 470 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 5: whether it's talk to someone like Jordan Spieth or talk. 471 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 4: To you know, really anybody in the NFL. 472 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 5: And I understand there's certain sports, maybe hockey or some 473 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 5: other sports where you really got to be committed at a. 474 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 4: High level at a young age. I get it. We 475 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 4: did it too. My son, who's the quarterback, he was 476 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 4: an ice. 477 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 5: Hockey goalie most of the until COVID and then ironically 478 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 5: he was committed to play lacrosse at Maryland for his 479 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 5: entire junior year and then finally, you know, football came around. 480 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 5: He matured, hit puberty and had committed to Chip Kelly 481 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 5: at UCLA. So I guess I just I just would 482 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 5: encourage people to to trust the process. 483 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 4: Let kids be kids and do it all. If you can't, 484 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 4: all right, let me quit. 485 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 3: Two more Super Bowl questions. First off, I'm taking a 486 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 3: flyer on DeMarcus Lawrence to win MVP. I know Will 487 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 3: Campbell's had a pretty good rookie year, but these blitzes 488 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: that McDonald senys. I'm sure you've seen the numbers against 489 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,719 Speaker 3: young quarterbacks in the last two seasons in Seattle, McDonald's 490 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 3: defenses or the quarterbacks have gone one to nine against 491 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 3: McDonald with like seven touchdowns, twelve picks. They've sacked the 492 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 3: young guys thirty times. Now, yeah, some of that is 493 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 3: bad quarterbacks, but for whatever reason, his blitz schemes keep 494 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 3: confusing quarterbacks and I like Lawrence to have a big game. 495 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 4: Any thoughts defensively, I don't hate that. I don't hate 496 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 4: that call. 497 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 5: DeMarcus Lawrence has had a great year and he's a 498 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 5: different player. I would even go as far as to 499 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 5: say he's a different person. Listening to him talk at 500 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 5: the podium, it's a lot of interviews this week, listening 501 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 5: to him talk about the stuff outside of football, the 502 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 5: amount of hate he got for choosing the Seahawks and 503 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 5: for feeling like I believe what they're telling me, come 504 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 5: here and we can win a Super Bowl. The amount 505 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 5: of hate like that affected him and to hear him 506 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 5: answer those types of questions, he's playing like a guy 507 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 5: on fire on a mission, in lockstep with Byron Murphy 508 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 5: and with Leonard Williams, and like you work as a 509 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 5: unit in pass rush. 510 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 4: And yes, the threat. 511 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 5: Of dB blitzes and safety blitzes and linebacker blitzes that 512 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 5: Mike McDonald brings to the table, he could absolutely be 513 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 5: a guy with two sacks or a sack fumble, a 514 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 5: big play like that. There's a lot of candidates for MVP, 515 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 5: but that's not a bad choice. 516 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 3: Do you have a contrarian take on the game. A 517 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 3: lot of people are saying low scoring. Everybody likes Seattle neither. 518 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 3: These run defenses are amazing. Do you have anything that 519 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 3: like Adam Leftfield ol JSN two catches for thirty yards 520 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 3: or something. 521 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 4: Trick plays. They're coming. 522 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 5: They're coming like you're Josh McDaniels and you're going against 523 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 5: the best defense in the NFL. This defense, statistically, in 524 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 5: a lot of ways, is better than the Legion of Boom. 525 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 5: And maybe we don't think about them that way because 526 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 5: they don't have the extra swagger or whatever, but in. 527 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 4: Some categories they're better. So think about that. So if 528 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 4: I'm Josh McDaniels, I got to come up with manufactured 529 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 4: offense smoking mirrors. What if the Patriots shown to do 530 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 4: in the past double pass Julian Edelman? 531 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 5: This somebody that flee, flickers all the stuff, and you 532 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 5: can't take you with you. You've been practicing trick plays 533 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 5: all season long, Like what good does it do to 534 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,719 Speaker 5: take it to April? Like cut it loose man? You know, 535 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 5: Philly Special. The Patriots know all about that. You know 536 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 5: we lost our Super Bowl. Bruce Arians called a like 537 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 5: a double reverse pass Antoine Randall l throwing it to 538 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 5: hinz Ward like sometimes you gotta sneak one, you gotta 539 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 5: steal one. Sean Payton went with the surprise on side 540 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 5: kick against Peyton Manning and the Colts to come out 541 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 5: at halftime trick plays. 542 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 4: And so if I'm the Seahawks. 543 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 5: I am finding out who's a righty, who's a lefty 544 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 5: who played multiple sports in high school and was a 545 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 5: baseball player, you. 546 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 4: Know, a quarterback? Whatever it is, who are our threats 547 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 4: as throwers? Is it Efton Chisholm. 548 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 3: Is it? 549 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 4: Traveon Henderson like? Who is it? I would look for 550 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 4: that in this game. I like that. 551 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 2: Matt Hasselbeck, thanks a lot, buddy. 552 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 4: Enjoy the game and we'll talk to you soon.

The only thing better than sitting on your 557 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: couch watching the games is making money while you do it. 558 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 1: Here's your best bet. 559 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 3: Good stuff from Matt Hasselbeck, and we will wrap up 560 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 3: this Friday podcast with some prop bets we've fired on. 561 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 3: So if you read the site, you know I am 562 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 3: on Seattle and the under. I don't see a lot 563 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 3: of scoring. As I wrote up on the site, I 564 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 3: took a couple of long shots first touchdown, last touchdown. 565 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 3: George Holani, the running back for Seattle. I'm not going 566 00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 3: to talk through the entire logic you can read it 567 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 3: on the site, but essentially he's the new Charbonnet. And 568 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 3: he was on the field for twenty snaps that were 569 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 3: passing against the Rams, only three for rushing. Okay, because 570 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 3: in passing situations, he's you're blocking back. Kenneth Walker's not 571 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 3: a blocker. Obviously the Patriots saw that and they said, well, 572 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 3: what if we blitz a lot. You know, Darnold eight 573 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 3: interceptions against the blitz the season, tied for the league high. 574 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 3: If we just blitz the hell out of them, do 575 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 3: they take Kenneth Walker off the field. We'll have to 576 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 3: make them adjust if that happens. Obviously, Seattle's gonna be 577 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 3: ready with a counter. Is one of the counters. Hey, 578 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 3: we're gonna rely on Holani. By the way, this kid 579 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 3: went to Boise. I saw he had eighty eight catches 580 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 3: in his career at Boise in like forty something games, 581 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 3: So it's not like he's got stonehands. I would not 582 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 3: be shocked if he was a you know, a decoy 583 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 3: that was wide open on a touchdown on something in 584 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 3: the red zone. Seattle has not been great in the 585 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 3: red zone. Offense has not been spectacular. We know they're 586 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 3: gonna load up on the tight ends on Walker on 587 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 3: JSN and that could lead to Holani stealing a touchdown 588 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 3: that the odds are long. It's not a huge play, 589 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 3: but I think that's definitely a fun prop. You get 590 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 3: inside the ten, assuming they get to the red zone. 591 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 3: I remember, these are two good defenses. I'll take a 592 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 3: flyer on Holani. I'm on the under for Romandre Stevenson 593 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,439 Speaker 3: rush yards under fifty one and a half. He's been 594 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 3: a huge, huge story because in the postseason he had 595 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 3: his carries have gone way up. But what people aren't 596 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 3: noticing is that his carries are up because the Patriots 597 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 3: were winning all those games. They didn't trail in the 598 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 3: second half in the postseason yet, So what is Rabel 599 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 3: gonna do? Conservative Rabel, Well, we're just gonna run the ball. 600 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 3: And who's he gonna trust the young rookie running back, 601 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 3: Henderson or Stevenson, who seems to have cured his fumble problem. 602 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 3: Member he had two bad fumbles early this season against 603 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 3: the Steelers. I was on the Patriots in that game, 604 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: I remember, and I was like, what the hell, get 605 00:28:58,160 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 3: this guy out of the game. He had two critical 606 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 3: so Vrabels leans on his running back when they got 607 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 3: the lead to salt it away. Well, I don't think 608 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 3: they're gonna be leading in the second half, so I 609 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 3: don't anticipate a lot of carries for Stevenson and Seattle's defenses. 610 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 3: You heard from what's his name earlier this week, Aaron 611 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 3: Shatz the number of Seattle's run defense is the best 612 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 3: in the league. Well epa per rush, they're number one. Like, 613 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 3: this is a great run defense. There's not gonna be 614 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 3: any holes. I think, if you want a running back 615 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 3: to bet, and I haven't bet it yet is Henderson 616 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 3: overs for receptions and receiving yards. But everybody's loading up 617 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 3: on that because everybody also sees, well, you can't run 618 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 3: on Seattle. So hopefully I'm not getting caught up in 619 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 3: too many obvious narratives here. I did take a flyer 620 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 3: on hold Oni anytime touchdown as well plus four forty four. 621 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 3: I took a chance on DeMarcus Lawrence MVP. So Drake 622 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 3: k Bay has been sacked five times in each of 623 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 3: the three playoff games. He would sacked forty seven times 624 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 3: this year. He either eats a sack or goes for 625 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 3: the big home run play or run tucks and scrambles. 626 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 3: And he, by the way, fumbles a lot. I believe 627 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 3: he fumbled four times in the three or four times 628 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 3: in the playoffs. I mean, DeMarcus Lawrence has had a 629 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 3: great postseason, forcing fumbles I mean, he's thirty three years old, 630 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 3: but he's having a wonderful playoff run. He's on a 631 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 3: mission to win a super Bowl. You know, this has 632 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 3: not quite a Von Miller feel to it with the Broncos, 633 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 3: but it kind of sort of feels like, man, this 634 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 3: guy is, you know, gonna deliver here in a big 635 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,719 Speaker 3: spot for Seattle. And I wouldn't be shocked if if 636 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 3: Lawrence gets two sacks and a force fumble and the 637 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 3: Seahawks win, you know, sixteen to six, or they're about 638 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 3: twenty to ten, DeMarcus Lawrence is gonna be in line 639 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 3: for the MVP. I don't see Darnold's numbers being huge here. 640 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 3: You know, there are there is a thought that, hey, listen, man, 641 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 3: you remember all those Belichick defenses, what they did. Hey, 642 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 3: we're taking away your superstar. We're gonna make you fight 643 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 3: left handed. We're just gonna erase him and go beat 644 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 3: us with anybody else. Well, if they do that to JSN, 645 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 3: are you confident in Donald finding Shaheed and these tight ends? 646 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: Like, I don't know. 647 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't see Donald or Drake May having 648 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 3: a big game. So again I'm on the under I 649 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 3: want Seattle. I took a flyer on de Marcus Lawrence, 650 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 3: who's a long shot to win plus seventy nine. Seventy nine. 651 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 3: You know, a twenty dollars bet on DeMarcus Lawrence to 652 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 3: win the VP pays you very handsomely those over thirteen 653 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 3: hundred bucks. I did take an alternate line Seattle minus 654 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 3: fourteen and a half to win the game, like would 655 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 3: not shock me at all. And in the write up 656 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 3: I draw some parallels between this and the Patriots thirteen 657 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 3: Rams three snoozer. Fun fact, I don't even remember where 658 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 3: I was watching that game. It was so bad. Rams 659 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 3: couldn't do anything. They had a young quarterback Jared Goff, 660 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: they had a sharp offensive mind in McVeigh, and Belichick 661 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 3: just wiped them. They didn't get to the red zone once. 662 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 3: And you know, Drake, these young quarterbacks in the Super Bowl, man, 663 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 3: remember Dan Marino went there. Second year, they got smashed 664 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 3: by the Niners. Now this Seahawks team, I don't know 665 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: that they're capable of running away and hiding, but I 666 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 3: think they won seven games by more than fourteen points 667 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 3: this season. A lot of bad teams in there, but 668 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 3: this defense is a bully. And when they if they're 669 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: able to grab a nine to nothing halftime lead or something. 670 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 3: I think first half unders in play. I mean for 671 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 3: first half shutout for the Seahawks defense. I just don't 672 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 3: see the Patriots moving the ball that much. Now, maybe 673 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 3: it's colored by what I saw from that in that 674 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 3: first half against the Broncos, but they couldn't do anything. 675 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 3: That it was on the road, and don't give me 676 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 3: the weather that didn't kick in until the second half. 677 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 3: But they couldn't move the ball against the Texans and 678 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 3: that was at home. They couldn't do much against the Chargers, 679 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 3: and that was at home. And the Seattle defense I 680 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 3: think is better than the Chargers, right there with the Texans, 681 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 3: and definitely I think better than the Broncos. I did 682 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 3: take a chance on last touchdown is always fun. I 683 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 3: did bet Arroyo the tight end for Seattle. I think 684 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 3: someone's got a score besides JSN and Walker. I took 685 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 3: a chance on last touchdown. Rashid Shaheed and the other 686 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 3: old line I took was under thirty five and a 687 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 3: half for the game. You know, twenty one six? Is 688 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 3: that in play? Like I know you, maybe I'm way 689 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 3: lower than I should be on the Patriots. But I 690 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 3: just think this Seattle team, everything I've seen from them, 691 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 3: go look at their last eight games. One team and 692 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 3: one quarterback has had success against them. That's the Rams 693 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 3: at Stafford. And I'm sorry, guys. Stafford is a veteran 694 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 3: who's seen everything. And I don't think Drake Mays in 695 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 3: his class, despite how good of a season may have. 696 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 3: So I don't think that May has the weapons that 697 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 3: Stafford has. I think mcvay's a better play caller than McDaniels. 698 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 3: I don't see the Patriots dialing up great offensiveness. Remember 699 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 3: with Tom Brady, how many first quarters did McDaniels come 700 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 3: out and lay goose eggs? And now if you fall 701 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 3: behind here, I just yeah, I'm thinking low scoring twenty 702 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 3: four to nine would basically be amazing. I would clean 703 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 3: up and not quite retire, but it would be a 704 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 3: would be a nice sweep of the board. Now, I 705 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:15,240 Speaker 3: will admit all these bets you heard. If the Patriots 706 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 3: win this game, it's a rough one for your boy. 707 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 3: I don't have the Patriots winning and anything go ahead. 708 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 3: You can run counter to me, fade me, baby, all you. 709 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 3: But I think Seattle wins fairly handily, I will say 710 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 3: last year, I was fortunate to call Eagles blowing out 711 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 3: the Chiefs. Last year was a really good season. This 712 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 3: regular season was good. These playoffs have not been good 713 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 3: to me. I've thought more with my head, thought more 714 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 3: with my heart than my head, which has really been foolish. 715 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 3: I got no dog in this fight, you guys. I 716 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 3: don't like the freaking Sea Owks. I had to shave 717 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 3: their logo in my head when I made an idiotic 718 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 3: bet about Geno Smith and then making the playoffs a 719 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 3: few years ago. And I definitely don't like the Patriots. 720 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 3: But I didn't like the Chiefs last year and I 721 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 3: was on the Eagles. I rode the better defense to 722 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 3: an easy victory, and I think that happens here all right. 723 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,720 Speaker 2: Enjoyed the Super Bowl. We're back on Monday.
