NFL on Fox came 44 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: out with the Power rankings, and of course these lists 45 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: are made to be talked about, criticized, They're made to 46 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 2: be talked about yeah, we've established that this is courtesy 47 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: of NFL. On Fox. Ralph Vakiano O, Ralph Guy. I like, yeah, Ralph, 48 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: but she's saying we're talking about it, and props to him, 49 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: ralphie v Oh. The one that stood out the biggest 50 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 2: I grab was the Steelers. And the truth is it's 51 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: not that anyone's wrong, it's a question mark. It's like, really, 52 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 2: the Steelers, Okay, they're six on the NFL power ranking, 53 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 2: and do you think the Lions are nine? 54 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 55 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 2: And the Lions are nine? Great, great point, Danny G, 56 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: like you would assume that they'd be a little higher. 57 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: And then the other thing that really really stood out, 58 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: especially to Rich Davis here again I'm you know that 59 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 2: is Rich Danny G super producer if you want to 60 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: chime in on the phones at eight seven seven for 61 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 2: the Herd eight seven seven for the Herd. Rich as 62 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 2: a forty nine Ers fan, a forty nine Ers fan 63 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 2: who watches the schedule closely, knows and talks about and 64 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 2: preaches all the time that the forty nine ers are motivated, 65 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 2: the windows not closed, and they have an easy, breezy schedule. 66 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 2: So when you see that they're ranked at eighteen You're like, 67 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: wait a second, it makes no sense. And the meaning 68 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: we played yesterday was to see if we could guess 69 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 2: the top fifteen, and the forty nine Ers were not 70 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: in the top fifteen. You're like, wow, then who is 71 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 2: bro It's the most disrespectful omission I've seen on a 72 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 2: list in a decade. And then we post the question, 73 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: how can you say the forty nine Ers are in 74 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 2: the bottom the bottom tier of the league, cause you 75 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: got to fit the Steelers in there somewhere to cause 76 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 2: some controversy. You know, there's a few teams that you 77 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 2: wonder are they top fifteen, like we said the Cardinals, 78 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: the Vikings, because again the forty nine Ers are ranked eighteenth. 79 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: Mark my words, the forty nine ers are gonna go 80 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: twelve and five or better. You know who they don't 81 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 2: play too. I'm gonna tell you who they don't play. 82 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 2: I want to hear this list I do. They don't 83 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: play the Bills, they don't play the Ravens, they don't 84 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: play the Bengals, they don't play the Steelers, they don't 85 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: play the Chiefs, they don't play the Chargers. They don't 86 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: play the Eagles or the Lions or the Packers. The 87 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 2: Niners have the softest. They don't play anybody in the 88 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 2: top ten. They play the softest schedule ever, so you 89 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 2: could say that maybe come playoff time they might get 90 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 2: whooped by like the Eagles or Lions if they have 91 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 2: the personnel's not there are gonna be a soft ten 92 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: and Oero. Look at the Niners schedule. Seahaw, I'm gonna 93 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 2: give you the first month, Yeah, Seahawks, Saints, Cardinals, Jags, 94 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: and they play the Rams tough divisional game. The Bucks 95 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 2: are solid, Falcons, Texans, Giants, Rams, Cardinals again, Panthers, Browns, Titans. Like, 96 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: this is a week ass schedule that if the Niners 97 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 2: are even eighty percent of what they were a couple 98 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: of years ago, they're over under in Vegas is around 99 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: eleven for a reason, because they're not playing anyone of value. 100 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: And then for fun, we did speculate on do you 101 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: think Perdy and McCaffrey being new dads bond over that. 102 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 2: Are they more motivated or more exhausted with the new 103 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: ones in their life? No, no, when you're but they're 104 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,799 Speaker 2: not up late changing diapers. Don't people need to realize 105 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 2: you thing? Brock Party is doing a three am changing. 106 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 5: I highly doubt that, highly doubt that, which the bad 107 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 5: teams aren't going to all stay bad. 108 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: Rich. 109 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 5: We see this every NFL season. A couple of those 110 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 5: teams are gonna have turnarounds. Well, they're gonna lose quarterbacks 111 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 5: with injury. I mean, Rich, you were just the schedule, 112 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 5: they could easily be nine to three going to their 113 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 5: bi week easily. 114 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it. Then again, we're really downplaying the fact. 115 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: I know they lost weapons, and I know the forty 116 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: nine ers. The big narrative for a while is like, man, 117 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 2: they're letting everyone go, but they still have the core 118 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: offensive line they worked on in the off season, they 119 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: drafted offensive defensive line, they still have. I think Ricky 120 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: Piersoll is gonna have a breakout year. You saw towards 121 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: the end of the year. He was coming on. They 122 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: need him. Ayuk will come back at some point, and 123 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 2: McCaffrey's one hundred percent going into the season. George kittle 124 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: brock Purdy, I don't think it's just the sentiment of 125 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: everyone thinking their window has closed because they had a 126 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: few chances to pass three plus years. You remember, going 127 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 2: into last year, the big sentiment was the Bills window 128 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: closed right yea, and the Bills Jeon Diggs is gone. 129 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: They were one of the elite teams of the AFC, 130 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 2: and you know, a play away here and there from 131 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 2: really going all the way. So I think the Niners 132 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 2: are completely disrespected, and I think I hate to say 133 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: it because you know nothing against the young dudes on 134 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 2: the Cardinals. But how how could you make a list 135 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: where you rank the Cardinals four slots better than the 136 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: Niners on this. 137 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 5: You doubted the Cardinals all last season. Remember I doubt 138 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 5: the Cardinals every year. 139 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 2: I think there are certain teams that you subconsciously like 140 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 2: you're not doing on, but you disrespect even the Vikings rich. 141 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 2: You always leave them out of the conversation. Like when 142 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 2: we were trying to think of the top fifteen, Vikings 143 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 2: were number fifteen. Oh yeah, they got a rookie quarterback 144 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 2: that was pretty good though, you know, and to add 145 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: the insult to injury, the Cowboys right after your forty 146 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 2: nine ers at nineteen and the Jaguars at twenty. That's 147 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 2: your NFL Power rankings by Ralph Vakiah. No, well, the Cardinals, 148 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 2: keep in mind, though they also have a pretty meager schedule, 149 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: so maybe you know they start against the Saints. Who 150 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: do you see, Let's see the Cardinals. First month, Cardinals 151 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,559 Speaker 2: play the Saints, Oh, Saints Panthers, then they go to 152 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: forty nine, ers to San Francisco and then the Seahawks. 153 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: Then they play the Titans and the colt So like 154 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 2: the Cardinals have a pretty soft. 155 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 4: But you're just you're asking Kyler Murders stay healthy, right, 156 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 4: and that's something he's had a problem doing the last 157 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 4: couple of weeks. 158 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison Junior to step up to be that top 159 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: guy they think he could be. So I don't know what. Yes, 160 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: DNYG makes a solid point though we're even speculating, like 161 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 2: we know based on the schedule, like oh, there's always 162 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: a team that turns it around, always a surprise team, 163 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 2: and always a team that's supposed to be good and 164 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 2: thinks so, yeah, multiple teams, and we say it every 165 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 2: year one of pitches. One of Rich's top catchphrases is man, 166 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: the parody of the NFL. That's what makes it great, 167 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 2: the parody of the NFA. They've made fun of me 168 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: for years because I love the word p A r 169 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: I t y. Butcause every year it's not just Us, 170 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: Colin dan Patrick. Everyone will point out the fun fact that, 171 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 2: unlike baseball in the NBA and other sports hot dog eating, 172 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 2: you know, the top four right basketball baseball, there's always surprising. 173 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: The NFL is the one league where, without fail, there's 174 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: four team playoff teams now right, every year, more like 175 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 2: half of them or more than half of them are 176 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: turnover from the previous year. And you look at the 177 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: standings and you say, no, not this year, You'll have 178 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: the same teams, and you're right, it's always somebody new, 179 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 2: someone will fall off, like last year. The Niners missed. 180 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 2: Last year, you know, the Bengals missed. There's teams where 181 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: you're like, oh, no, all right, I had them. But 182 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: I do agree. When Rich and I agree, it's fact 183 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 2: because we often disagree. But when it comes to a 184 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 2: forty nine ers, the health factor is also a major 185 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,719 Speaker 2: part of it. And McCaffrey, from what we know, is 186 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: completely healthy this season again, extra motivated, new Dad, and 187 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 2: Purdy is healthy. So to have them eighteenth is a 188 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 2: head scratcher. And we go to your thoughts now again 189 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: the top five Packers, Bills, Chiefs, Ravens, Eagles. But there's 190 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 2: surprises you know number six is the Steelers, and we 191 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 2: want to know your thoughts A seven to seven for 192 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 2: the herd at Colvino and Rich. But the fact that 193 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: we're even talking about it is what makes today so special, 194 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 2: so much fun. You got some preseason football, you got 195 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 2: the MLB trade deadlines, a special day here on Fox Sports. 196 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: That's why you got us Covino and Rich. Oh man, 197 00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: oh man, I'm just trying to find some man. And 198 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 2: you know when you you see something and it's from 199 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 2: a reputable source and you're like, oh, oh, it's said 200 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 2: that according to CBS Sports, which who died. Now, No, 201 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 2: it's not like it's not like it's not like it's 202 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: not like the noodle. You know, no one died. They're 203 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 2: saying that Brendan Ayuk is quote nowhere close. Yeah, he's 204 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: gonna be a while, he's gonna I think that. Can 205 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 2: you Is it safe to say that if Rock Purdy 206 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: and McCaffrey are both playing a full season, the Niners 207 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 2: are in the playoffs? Yeah? I think that's based on 208 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 2: the soft schedule and based on Kyle Shanahan finds way 209 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: is to win, and you know what we're forgetting. I 210 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 2: know you could say stop it rich. I think the 211 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 2: return of Robert Sala as a defensive Robert Salo was 212 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: the ultimate defensive coordinator motivator. And I'm not saying he's 213 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 2: not head coach potential, but Robert Salah is your quintessential, 214 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 2: like I want that guy as by defensive forty. 215 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 4: Guys are just better coordinators than they are head coaches. 216 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 4: Spags in Kansas City was a terrible head coach. He's 217 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 4: an off awesome defensive coordinator. 218 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 2: So you look at Robert Sall and say, and he's 219 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: coming home and he has unfinished business and he went 220 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: to the Jets. I what a bet taste in his mouth. 221 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: And you know that the guys that were remaining from 222 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago are all pumped to have 223 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 2: Roberts there. So I think the Niners disrespected. In fact, 224 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 2: if you want to go to some feedback, Danny g 225 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 2: we got the phones running on the herd or what 226 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 2: we do. 227 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 5: Let's start with Baker in Illinois. What's up, Baker, Baker? 228 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 2: Hey, Baker, are you there? 229 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 6: I'm here? 230 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 2: What's up? Bud? 231 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 6: Hey? Uh oh? You you mentioned a few times football 232 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 6: from tonight until Valentine's Day. So I did a little looking. 233 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 6: And if we go to the eighteen game schedule in 234 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 6: the NFL and play the Super Bowl on the Sunday 235 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 6: before President's Day, yeah, every six to seven ish years, 236 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 6: and starting in twenty twenty seven, the Super Bowl would 237 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 6: be played directly on Valentine's Day. 238 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 2: Wow, we'll get that. I could get you know, you 239 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 2: could two birds with one stone, Honey games on. I 240 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 2: think I think that will happen. I romance. I heard 241 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: our very own Dan Patrick here on the network talking 242 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 2: about how you know, according to the NFL, it will 243 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 2: happen at some point, and it only makes sense, right. 244 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I think once you start pushing it beyond that. 245 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 2: You know how the NCAA is, like, let's put one 246 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 2: hundred teams in the tournament like slow down sixty something. 247 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 2: The bracket's enough. We don't need one hundred teams in 248 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 2: March madness. I think eighteen is perfect. I feel like 249 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 2: pushing it beyond that. Now you're getting selfish. Now it's 250 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 2: a moneyed grab. Now it's injury prone, it's too much, 251 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: too much preseason no one cares about anyway. Cut that 252 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: back one more game and you're gonna end up doing 253 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 2: if you do eighteen games, and you've heard the rumors 254 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 2: of maybe every team has some type of international game 255 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 2: two bye weeks. I think we're gonna settle on that 256 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 2: and that will be the NFL moving forward for quite 257 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 2: a while. Yeah, right's perfect time has an internet? What 258 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 2: one international like? And you have a base like the 259 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 2: forty nine ers. There's some teams that would play in 260 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 2: Mexico City and some teams that would playing in Germany 261 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: or you know, I think one international game two by weeks. 262 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 2: Eighteen games, cut back the preseason because no one plays anyway, 263 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 2: and the Monday after the super Bowl is a holiday 264 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 2: and everyone's a winner. Eight seven seven forty four thirty 265 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: four thirty seven A seven seven four thirty four to 266 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 2: thirty seven. That's a seven seven four the Herd. Thanks again, Baker. 267 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 2: That's Baker Mayfield representing his number eleven. Thanks Baker, number 268 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 2: eleven on the Power Rank games one of favorite quarterbacks. Yeah, 269 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: they're ranked top fifteen at number eleven. Who else do 270 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 2: we got, Danny g Let's go to Virginia Beach? Sager? 271 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 2: What's up?

I'm incredibly jealous about the fact that 282 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 3: there was somebody named Saga at Super Bowl fifty. 283 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 2: Eight other than me. 284 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 3: Nice because you know, I am a lifelong Niners fan, 285 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 3: and you know, with that said, man, I just want 286 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 3: to say that I don't want people talking about us. 287 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 3: I'm fine with eighteen on the power ranking. 288 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: And you know what, George Kittle, George Kittle shares your sentiment. 289 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 2: I've seen Kittle say sorry, we're boring, Sorry, there's no 290 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 2: story and Saga. You know, if it's not clear, I'm 291 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: a Niners fan as well. Rich Davis, lifelong Niners fan, 292 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 2: and I feel like it's disrespectful and I sometimes feel 293 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 2: like I do have those Homer goggles on. 294 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 7: Oh. 295 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: I don't want to sound like I'm jaded, but I 296 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: do think if you put the Niners at ten, eleven, twelve, 297 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 2: I'd get it because they did take perhaps a step 298 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: back with personnel. But eighteen, you're telling me the Niners 299 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 2: are in the attom half of the team according to 300 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: that that power rankings. And again, your Niners weren't the 301 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: only ones. Host on this list pointed out too, the 302 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 2: Lions totally should be higher than they are. The Niners 303 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 2: on this list are next to the Cowboys and Jags, 304 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 2: Like you really think the forty nine ers the Cowboys, Jags, 305 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 2: and Bears, you think they're in that category. No, And 306 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 2: by the way, you know, Danny g pointed out your 307 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: excitement level for the forty nine ers and football. There's 308 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 2: two things to get rich, this excited smut and the 309 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: NFL true story. And it's to look at my Instagram algorithm. 310 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 2: It's ass and the forty nine er. I don't try 311 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: to stifle him, but not often forty nine er ass 312 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 2: though you could hear the excitement in his voice. On 313 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: a personal note, you know you mentioned how today's an 314 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 2: exciting day, baseball's pop and so many teams are still 315 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 2: in it. How do you balance that out for real? 316 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 2: For real? Because usually around this time you shift gears 317 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 2: because your mets usually stink and they let you down 318 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 2: at this point, so you shift all your focus to football, Like, 319 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 2: did I feel your head's going to spin off. I 320 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 2: feel your excitement level for the NFL's there. I could 321 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 2: hear it in your voice, and you still got to 322 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 2: be excited about your Mets. Yeah, that's rare. That's a 323 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 2: rare situation for a lot of people to be it. 324 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 2: Let me. Let me tell you, that's a lot to balance. 325 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 2: I'm not expecting you to care so much, but I'm 326 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: just it's a fact. If you go back to the 327 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 2: eighties till now. I'm a kid of the eighties and nineties, 328 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: if you're roughly fortyish, the forty nine Ers and the 329 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 2: Mets have historically never been good at the same time, 330 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 2: except when I was a little boy in the mid 331 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 2: eighties when when Montana was peaking and Darryl Strubberry and 332 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: not good. And other than that, If you historically go 333 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 2: from the mid eighties till now, anytime the Mets are 334 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: making some type of run, forty nine Ers stink, And 335 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 2: when the forty nine ers are good, the Mets stink. 336 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: So I think the answer is I'm just going to 337 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 2: ignore my weif and kids. You know what I think. 338 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 2: I think you come here for solutions. I think it's 339 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 2: that's how you do it. Hey, Emmy, Ben my kids 340 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: that dad's just gonna be a little mentally unpresent for 341 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: the next couple of months. Kids are gonna be tugging 342 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: on your pant leg and you're gonna be focused on 343 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 2: the game and on the moves being made. That's how 344 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,479 Speaker 2: you balance it, guys. But seriously, like you could hear 345 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 2: Rich's excitement just talking about the NFL, just knowing there's 346 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 2: preseason tonight, and you know what's knowing there's power ranking 347 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 2: mixed into that too. He feels me on this one. 348 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 2: I got two little kids. I just signed them up, 349 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 2: both of them up for fall ball yesterday. So if 350 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: you're living that mom or dad coaching parents sport life, 351 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,159 Speaker 2: I'm looking at the fall and I'm like baseball, playoffs, football, 352 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna be coaching. I'm gonna be coaching girls 353 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 2: softball and boys baseball in the fall, and they play 354 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 2: soccer too. I'm taking a step away from soccer. I'm like, 355 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 2: you're not able to take a step on a personal note. 356 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 2: When you say yes to all of those things, you're 357 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 2: saying no to others, and a lot of times something 358 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 2: slips as a result, something gets falls through the cracks exactly. 359 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 2: And that's either your relationship or your work work. What 360 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 2: are you saying. 361 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 4: I'm saying, not responding to Covina's exactly say. 362 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 2: When you got your life here coaching this, watching that, 363 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 2: on this, baseball, football, kids and everything else, things do 364 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 2: fall through the cracks. That's absolutely true. Don't let it 365 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: happen to you. You got to prioritize. Remember you tell me 366 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 2: yes that you were George Kittle. It's it's a life balance. 367 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 2: Are you telling me? Is it pe Alonzo over myself? 368 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: I'm saying, don't let it be your kids and don't 369 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: let it be your relationship, because that's a lot to juggle, 370 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 2: and those are high priority things. These are things that 371 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 2: you get passionate about and that's a lot to balance. 372 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 2: It's true. Know what I'm know what I'm doing as well. 373 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 2: This is that the timing is right. I'm I'm trying 374 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 2: to think of the best way to maximize my football watching. 375 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:45,959 Speaker 3: I can. 376 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,479 Speaker 2: You don't tell you I'm a maniac. I I You 377 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 2: don't think the nation of the Herd could hear that 378 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 2: in your voice. You don't need to explain you're the 379 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 2: most hyped up guy anyone's ever heard. Last season, I 380 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 2: bought because they're so cheap. Now, like the Roku t Yeah, 381 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 2: like a fifty sixty inch TV, it's like two hundred bucks. 382 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: I bought two additional TVs, so I keep them in 383 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: the guest bedroom and I roll them out so my 384 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 2: living room looks like a sports bar. And now I'm 385 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 2: redoing my backyard and my honey. I think we need 386 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 2: a couple of screens. We need a couple of screens 387 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 2: if we're gonna be if we're gonna build a cooking area, 388 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 2: we need a big screen out there. So it looks 389 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 2: like you're waiting in line at an amusement park. Yeah, 390 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,239 Speaker 2: you know what. I think you guys are gonna take 391 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 2: a back seat. I'm sorry, Wow, I'm sorry. Here we 392 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 2: go alr P, time and death. Yeah, sorry, Covino on 393 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 2: wretch after twenty years were done. I had something, Remember, 394 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: something takes a back seat. That is true. Everything you 395 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 2: say yes to you're saying no to something else. Sign 396 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:39,959 Speaker 2: Who do we got? 397 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 5: Danny Glmar David in Minnesota wants to ask you guys 398 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 5: about the vikings. 399 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 2: David, Yo, yo, how doing? 400 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 6: Man? Yo? 401 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 8: Man? 402 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: I don't I'll tell you about your vikings. If you 403 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 2: think I'm disrespecting them. I'm not. I'm excited about your 404 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 2: your quarterback. I'm excited about McCarthy, and I'm also you 405 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: know what I think. I think Justin Jefferson is just 406 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 2: the most electric wide receiver. So I think you've got 407 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 2: a lot to be excited about. 408 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 9: You really do so, you think because I was so 409 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 9: sad when he got injured right away? You know, I 410 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 9: was excited to see JJ McCarthy play. So do y'all 411 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 9: think what do y'all think the Vikings will do like 412 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 9: racker By this this season coming up? 413 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: Well, look at it this way. You have a you 414 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 2: have you have an offen, you have a quarterback whisperer 415 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: as your head coach, you have great coaching, you have 416 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 2: great personnel, And I look at it this way. Two, 417 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 2: you made disagree or agree if the Vikings took it 418 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: that far with Sam Donald. And this is no disrespect 419 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 2: to Sam Donald. If you really believe in JJ McCarthy 420 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: as a really great young talent, then you should be 421 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 2: able to duplicate that with him. I'm not saying you're 422 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 2: gonna go thirteen and four again or two, but you 423 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 2: you are a winning team. Playoff should be the goal. 424 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 2: The playoff should be the goal for the Vikings again, 425 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 2: especially again with that personnel. The only hesitation is that 426 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 2: that division looks awfully competitive. The Lions, who knows, and 427 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 2: then the Bears that you're get to assume at some point, 428 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams and that team is going to step it 429 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 2: up to next next level. So you have four teams 430 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 2: that all have that might be the one division of football. 431 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong. Let's take a lookxie. Let's 432 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: take a looxie. The Lions are gonna be solid, Packers 433 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 2: are going to be great. The Bears is the question mark, 434 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 2: gonna be really good. I think the NFC North and 435 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 2: I stand by this statement, is the only division where 436 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 2: all four teams think they can make the postseason. And 437 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 2: I know, deep down inside there are teams that realize 438 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 2: down inside, deep deep down inside one of your Greeds. 439 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 5: Remember, yeah, and Rich I disagree a little bit because 440 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 5: with Pete Carroll now in Vegas, I think the entire 441 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 5: a f C West thinks they can run. 442 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: Man, you talking about me with the Niners goggles, I'm 443 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 2: not saying what I think because I gotta see Geno 444 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: Smith deliver on the field to the universal studios the other day, Right, 445 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 2: unless they put Max Crosby in that Minion's duplicating machine 446 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: that I don't know what you think is going to defense. 447 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 2: I sure love the Raiders, and I think when the 448 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,880 Speaker 2: Raiders are good, it's good for football. But I think 449 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 2: they're still a little while, a little bit away. But 450 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 2: you know what, that is a division where that might 451 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 2: be your number to answer, because I think every other 452 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 2: division is one team that has the reality of like, 453 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 2: all right, we're not there yet. But I think the 454 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,360 Speaker 2: NFC North, all four of those teams are going into 455 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: the season. You know, Chicago's like, no, we got a 456 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: new coach, We're revamped, we got Kayla Williams, it's time. 457 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 2: The line's like, we're going back. The Packers, Jordan Love, 458 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 2: they they have every reason to think they're going to 459 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 2: be back. They they're number five on that list, they're 460 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 2: six on that list. And Minnesota. I think all four 461 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 2: of those teams think they could win that division. There 462 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 2: was a question being posed by will Bond and Kornheiser yesterday, 463 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 2: did you see who's the biggest start to ever come 464 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 2: out of Minnesota. Kirby Puckett has to be Kirby Puckett. 465 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 2: That's the first star sports star in Minnesota. I mean, 466 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 2: biggest star would be Prince Right now, it was sports 467 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 2: star Dan Gladden's mullet, Dan Gladden's mullet. And by the way, 468 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 2: who's the face of the Vikings, Because that's something we're 469 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 2: gonna get to in a minute. Best best star in 470 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 2: Minnesota in Minnesota history. All right, I have a top three. 471 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:26,719 Speaker 2: It's gotta be puck I'm gonna go Pucket, Garnet, Randy Moss. 472 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: I think that's fair. Dare you leave Fran Tarkenton off? 473 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 2: The generational bucket's undeniable, like for your boomer dad, Fran Tarkting. 474 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: But I mean, you know, out ofside, out of mind. 475 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 2: I guess that's a bad way to look at it. 476 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 2: But your friend Tarketing, for sure, Pucket was a beast 477 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 2: with the twins. Frank Frank Viol's mustache. Frank Oh Viol's 478 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 2: mustache is a good one. Now I have a story 479 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 2: and it involves a very famous rock band. And I 480 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 2: think this rock band I speak of is a rare 481 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 2: exception because most wrong band's lead singer is the main guy. 482 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 2: He's the face of the band. He gets all the 483 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 2: ass accolades, accolades. Yes, he's the guy who gets all 484 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 2: the accolades, right, the lead guys. But there's some bands, 485 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 2: in some teams where it's not necessarily the lead singer 486 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,479 Speaker 2: or the quarterback that's the face of the team. So 487 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 2: what do you think about the vikings? Who's the face 488 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 2: of that? For answer is a great question, you know what, 489 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 2: think about because they might be an exception. Think about 490 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 2: that and I want to hear your story.

I just uh it just even 569 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,479 Speaker 2: the teams that make moves, the fans are buffoons. My 570 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 2: met fan friends are like, this not a World Series team. 571 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, they're not even in it.

All right, let's get into it. It's time 596 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 2: for the herd Line news. 597 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 7: No, no, this is the herd Line News. 598 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 4: What's up, guys? So, uh, we'll do a little football here. 599 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 4: Number one, pick cam Ward. They've had a kind of 600 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 4: an up and down. He's going an up and down 601 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 4: start to camp so far. But I thought this was 602 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 4: very funny and interesting the way he described the offense 603 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 4: right now. It was a very gen z Gen Alpha way. 604 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 4: And I think this ties into a segment that you 605 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 4: guys do. And he talked about it where he mentions 606 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 4: is the way that many kids, including mine, talked to 607 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 4: that here's ken Ward. 608 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 8: Just think we're very med right now from my position 609 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 8: to upfront to the receivers position. But at the end 610 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 8: of it all starts with me. I just don't think 611 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 8: where we need to be. 612 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: But we got it. 613 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 8: We got a little bit of time. So get on 614 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 8: page from our receivers, watch field more and be actro football. 615 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 8: It might not be where I wanted to be, but 616 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 8: also you know I'm throwing the fifteen sixteen different people 617 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 8: every play, but so that's something that you know, we 618 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 8: got to say at the presses and continue to get 619 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 8: work on. 620 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: So he's saying they're mid, right, Yeah, you gotta be 621 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 2: peak at this point. You can't be mid. You gotta 622 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 2: be peak. That's my fourteen year old told me this week. 623 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 2: He said, Dad, no, he said, he said, it's not 624 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 2: that deep, my guy. What as long as he doesn't 625 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 2: say that you're looking shopped, because that's the insult, Dad, 626 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: you're looking chopped. 627 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 4: Earlier, you said that there's always a surprise team in 628 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 4: the NFL. I think the Titans are going to be 629 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 4: a surprise team better than thank you. They are buried 630 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 4: at the Power rankings, the Fox Power Rankings. But I 631 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 4: think cam Ward's gonna shock a lot of people and 632 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 4: they're gonna be pushing for a playoff spot. Maybe not 633 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 4: make the playoffs, but they're gonna be pushing. 634 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 2: For a playoff spot. But again that that division is 635 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: not very good. It's not very good. Is this the 636 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 2: year where Trevor Lawrence makes some noise and we start 637 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 2: talking about how he also like, like, uh, who we 638 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 2: talked about are justin? Herbert is not bringing it? I 639 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: mean the narrative that Trevor Lawrence is the guy is 640 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 2: gonna go away eventually totally. 641 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 4: I can't. I cannot figure him out. Like came in 642 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 4: just is this massive prospect in college? Number one pick 643 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 4: and Krevil Lawrence was when he came into the NFL. 644 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 4: They talked about it like Dutson's ol Way Andrew, Look, 645 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 4: has there been a prospect like this? 646 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: And you know nothing? Nothing?

So it was kind 655 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 10: of challenging. 656 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 2: You felt like you needed to step away from the 657 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 2: game in order to focus on on the fitness aspect 658 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 2: of it. Yeah, so it was just diet and exercise, 659 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 2: that's it. Yeah, No, Zempig, No, none of those shots 660 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 2: are no thing.

It's not like he was that fat. Yeah, 666 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 2: diet makes a difference. Why is this so hard to believe? 667 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: He's twenty five years old, and by the way, he's 668 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 2: on the cover of Men's Fitness. You see these shots everywhere. 669 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 2: He's slim and trim and looking great.

There's a new 733 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 2: Taco Oreo taco ice cream thing there, and I'm like, 734 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 2: all right, Melody, do we really need that? All week 735 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 2: she's bothered me, and then just the other day my 736 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 2: answer is, yes, you need that.

And then I'm thinking to myself 745 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 2: as a dad, well, these moments are gonna be few 746 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,240 Speaker 2: and far between.

So I started feeling 750 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 2: all guilty about it, and I did one of those 751 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 2: dad moves where I didn't tell her where we were going, 752 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 2: but I pulled in. She's like, where we Oh, we're 753 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 2: a Coldstone. Oh it's usually like a Disney move, not 754 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 2: a Coldstone move, like a surprise. We're a cold Stone 755 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 2: Cream Creek. Relax, We're going to Disney next week, right, 756 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 2: she spoiled, But I didn't want to go, so I 757 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: reluctantly went. That's a part of the story. I didn't 758 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 2: want to go. And I'm in there and she's just 759 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 2: taking her time trying to figure out what to order, 760 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 2: and you all kids want cotton candy whatever anyway, but 761 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 2: she's claiming she'd never been to Coldstone, so she's taking 762 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 2: her time, and I'm like, come on, and I see 763 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 2: the silhouette of a rock star come walking my way, 764 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 2: and I'm like, no, no way, this can't be. No way. 765 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 2: I'm seeing things right now and I didn't have my 766 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: glasses on either, so I'm like, there's no way. And 767 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 2: then he comes in to the light and he's right 768 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 2: there next to me, and he's looking at the menu. 769 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 2: He acknowledges me. He gives me like a vato nod, like, hey, 770 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 2: what's up, best say? And I look at this guy. 771 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 2: He looks at me, and I'm like, there's no way 772 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 2: he's this guy. And then he starts looking at the 773 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 2: thing and he's trying to figure out his order, and 774 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:15,879 Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, man, you want to order first. He's 775 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 2: like nah, Man, He's like, I don't know what I want. 776 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 2: You guys. Then we start bessing and I'm like, yeah, 777 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 2: my daughter's been bothering me all week because she wants 778 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: this taco thing, and now she can't figure out what 779 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 2: she wants. He's like, man, I've had a hankering for 780 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 2: ice cream all week. Man, all week. I figured I 781 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 2: had to get here. Now. This guy is arguably a 782 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 2: rock god, a rock god. He could be the face 783 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 2: of the band, but there's multiple faces of the band. 784 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 2: And again, I want you to start thinking of who's 785 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 2: the face of your team, who's the face of the 786 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 2: NFC team.

And I'm not 796 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 2: the biggest Kiss fan, but I totally acknowledge how Mammoth, 797 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 2: how massive that band is worldwide. And you could say, yeah, 798 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 2: Gene Simmons is the lead singer, but it's like a duo. 799 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 2: It's like Axel Rose and Slash, two megastars in that band. 800 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 2: They're all superstars at that point.

No, not at all, But we have 819 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 2: to acknowledge he has a lot of stadium anthems. You 820 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 2: can't go to any game you know, in the US 821 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 2: of A or anywhere in the world without here in 822 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 2: a kiss song. 823 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:38,399 Speaker 6: Dude. 824 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 2: He wants to rock and roll all night, party every day, 825 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 2: and also have the delightful peanut butter. Oh and he 826 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 2: licked it up, licked it up. So, guys, what I 827 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 2: want you to start thinking about is who is the 828 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 2: face of the band? Is it always the lead singer? 829 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 2: Not always the lead singer, not always the quarterback. And 830 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 2: this does tie in, like Kevino said, not always the quarterback, 831 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 2: because coming up in a little bit, I have a 832 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 2: theory about what it's says if your team's face is 833 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 2: not the quarterback. We went over the AFC yesterday on 834 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 2: our show. We'll recap that quick, and I want to 835 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 2: go over the NFC and we'll do that coming up 836 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 2: in a little bit. But look at the clock. Fifty 837 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 2: is hit fifty. 838 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 7: There's a What we gonna do is go back back 839 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 7: into town throwing it back for a Thursday. Old School 840 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 7: went fifty hits. That's fifty after CNR give you the 841 00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 7: time capsule topic and we reminisce together. 842 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 2: All right, So we are Covino enrich In for Colin 843 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:39,240 Speaker 2: on the Herd, and we do this every Thursday.

Right, yes, A seven 847 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 2: seven four thirty four to thirty seven. Now, this is 848 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 2: where a super producer, Danny g comes in because he 849 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,879 Speaker 2: always gives us a fun meme or something that's gone 850 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 2: to help us here with the discussion. And there was 851 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 2: a story out of Cowboys Camp and a meme that 852 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 2: went along with it said there were so many fights 853 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 2: at Cowboys Camp that Brian Schottenheimer had players and coaches running, Yeah, 854 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 2: at a professional level, at a professional level, you know, 855 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 2: I gotta do some laps. He was calling out laps 856 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 2: for again players and coaches because there was so much 857 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 2: baby bickering. It's like you went spot during commercials. I mean, 858 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 2: now you guys do last when you know, I coach 859 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 2: a bunch of little kids. I coach my daughter softball 860 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,720 Speaker 2: and my son's baseball, And sometimes you think you're punishing 861 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 2: them and they want to do it, and I'm like, yeah, 862 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 2: but look who you're comparing the Cowboys to, right, we 863 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 2: let a bunch of little kids, exactly a bunch of 864 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 2: little kids.

You're gonna do laps. 866 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 2: I run and you want to run. But so the 867 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 2: question is, is based on the Cowboys old school punishment, 868 00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:01,720 Speaker 2: what were those punishments you experienced from coaches, parents, teachers 869 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 2: that maybe wantn't fly today or maybe the ones that 870 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 2: you remember most as a kid, becaus a few definitely 871 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 2: pop in my head.
