I mean that was 84 00:03:55,188 --> 00:03:55,508 Speaker 4: a two. 85 00:03:55,828 --> 00:03:58,748 Speaker 3: I mean, give that man a mic in more than 86 00:03:58,748 --> 00:04:00,228 Speaker 3: ten seconds there and could. 87 00:04:00,068 --> 00:04:02,388 Speaker 2: A shout out the other side of the aisle. You know, 88 00:04:03,748 --> 00:04:04,388 Speaker 2: it's dangerous. 89 00:04:06,788 --> 00:04:08,508 Speaker 4: Fresh off a White House visit. 90 00:04:08,588 --> 00:04:11,468 Speaker 3: The Chiefs clearly the team to beat, maybe the comedy 91 00:04:11,508 --> 00:04:14,068 Speaker 3: duo to be. But what do Russell Wilson and the 92 00:04:14,068 --> 00:04:16,748 Speaker 3: Broncos have to do? What do they need to do 93 00:04:16,948 --> 00:04:20,508 Speaker 3: to become actual contenders in the AFC West Beater? 94 00:04:20,628 --> 00:04:22,828 Speaker 5: They need to go all in on whatever Sean Payton 95 00:04:22,948 --> 00:04:26,028 Speaker 5: is selling them, and they need to drop all ego 96 00:04:26,108 --> 00:04:27,948 Speaker 5: at the door, and needed to drop all the. 97 00:04:27,868 --> 00:04:32,028 Speaker 2: Stuff from last year. I thought last year I picked Russell. 98 00:04:31,708 --> 00:04:34,388 Speaker 5: Wilson as my MVP before the season, and I take 99 00:04:34,388 --> 00:04:36,588 Speaker 5: pride on knowing the league and doing all the work. 100 00:04:36,628 --> 00:04:40,388 Speaker 5: And I took Nathaniel Hackett as my coach of the 101 00:04:40,588 --> 00:04:43,588 Speaker 5: Year before the season last year, and I wear that 102 00:04:43,988 --> 00:04:46,468 Speaker 5: proudly on this show because I have enough confidence to 103 00:04:46,508 --> 00:04:48,988 Speaker 5: tell you I was dead wrong and it went one 104 00:04:49,068 --> 00:04:51,588 Speaker 5: hundred and eighty degrees different than I thought it would. 105 00:04:52,708 --> 00:04:55,868 Speaker 5: They need to erase all that and anything that Russ 106 00:04:55,908 --> 00:04:59,788 Speaker 5: had that was considered privileged last year, or was considered 107 00:05:00,108 --> 00:05:03,508 Speaker 5: special treatment last year, that's got to be stopped the 108 00:05:03,748 --> 00:05:07,268 Speaker 5: second they start going to mandatory mini camp. And I 109 00:05:07,308 --> 00:05:08,708 Speaker 5: look at the Broncos and I look at some of 110 00:05:08,708 --> 00:05:11,508 Speaker 5: those additions. They didn't add a flashy wide receiver, they 111 00:05:11,548 --> 00:05:14,068 Speaker 5: didn't do a crazy trade at draft Day. They added 112 00:05:14,108 --> 00:05:17,588 Speaker 5: Sean Payton, so they get, of course, some championship pedigree. 113 00:05:17,748 --> 00:05:20,748 Speaker 5: Then they go and they get Mike mcclinchey from the 114 00:05:20,748 --> 00:05:23,628 Speaker 5: San Francisco forty nine ers, who is a sturdy offensive 115 00:05:23,628 --> 00:05:27,308 Speaker 5: tackle who is going to do the job protecting their quarterback. 116 00:05:27,588 --> 00:05:30,028 Speaker 5: Then the next one they get Draymont Jones, who might 117 00:05:30,028 --> 00:05:33,308 Speaker 5: not be a household name everywhere, but Draymond Jones comes 118 00:05:33,308 --> 00:05:36,348 Speaker 5: in as a six year defensive tackle who's had forty 119 00:05:36,388 --> 00:05:38,348 Speaker 5: six career starts and is one of these guys that 120 00:05:38,468 --> 00:05:39,988 Speaker 5: is just everyone around the league's like, oh no, that 121 00:05:40,068 --> 00:05:40,588 Speaker 5: dude's great. 122 00:05:40,668 --> 00:05:43,428 Speaker 2: That's a great signing. That's a guy that you build 123 00:05:43,468 --> 00:05:46,548 Speaker 2: around on the inside. You know. 124 00:05:47,668 --> 00:05:50,268 Speaker 5: I look at this team and I say, this is 125 00:05:50,268 --> 00:05:52,908 Speaker 5: a squad that they've got a lot of stuff that 126 00:05:52,948 --> 00:05:54,988 Speaker 5: they can do, and they can get better, and they 127 00:05:54,988 --> 00:05:57,148 Speaker 5: of course have the talent on the roster, but they've 128 00:05:57,148 --> 00:05:58,388 Speaker 5: got the coach now too. 129 00:05:58,988 --> 00:06:00,708 Speaker 2: I don't know. I look at the Broncos and I'm like, 130 00:06:00,708 --> 00:06:02,068 Speaker 2: I'm pretty excited. It's not Draymond Jones. 131 00:06:02,108 --> 00:06:04,868 Speaker 6: They've got the wrong name. He was there, he was out. 132 00:06:04,948 --> 00:06:06,988 Speaker 2: I erased the whole show. Let's start all over. That 133 00:06:07,068 --> 00:06:10,628 Speaker 2: was stupid. Who's the defensive player? 134 00:06:10,668 --> 00:06:13,028 Speaker 6: They added someone in the produshown and coming from. 135 00:06:12,868 --> 00:06:15,388 Speaker 5: Arizona back Allen off the Edges who they added they 136 00:06:15,428 --> 00:06:16,228 Speaker 5: lost Dreamont Jones. 137 00:06:16,228 --> 00:06:16,868 Speaker 2: I'm so embarrassed. 138 00:06:16,868 --> 00:06:17,268 Speaker 6: I'm walking on. 139 00:06:17,668 --> 00:06:19,788 Speaker 1: Take a lab, take a lab, take a lap in 140 00:06:19,828 --> 00:06:20,588 Speaker 1: that card again, right. 141 00:06:20,548 --> 00:06:24,068 Speaker 6: Broncos, someone else go, Thanks for we're taking over. I 142 00:06:24,108 --> 00:06:26,108 Speaker 6: like that you spotted going in out of this carn again. 143 00:06:26,148 --> 00:06:26,748 Speaker 6: But he'll be back. 144 00:06:26,788 --> 00:06:26,948 Speaker 5: Soon. 145 00:06:27,428 --> 00:06:29,468 Speaker 6: I look at the Denver Broncos and yes, to Sean 146 00:06:29,508 --> 00:06:31,628 Speaker 6: Payton Russ, they got to be better the offense. This 147 00:06:31,708 --> 00:06:34,228 Speaker 6: that and the third the division are in the division 148 00:06:34,228 --> 00:06:36,708 Speaker 6: that has Patrick Mahomes up and comer and Justin Herbert 149 00:06:36,708 --> 00:06:39,948 Speaker 6: who's just breaking broken every passing record since he's coming 150 00:06:39,948 --> 00:06:43,108 Speaker 6: to the league for a young quarterback. At some point, defensively, 151 00:06:43,188 --> 00:06:45,268 Speaker 6: you have to find a way to get a stop. 152 00:06:45,508 --> 00:06:47,588 Speaker 6: In the last few years of Denver Broncos have been 153 00:06:47,668 --> 00:06:51,308 Speaker 6: one of the better defenses in the NFL. And Gerald 154 00:06:51,388 --> 00:06:54,068 Speaker 6: Verro he's gone. He's not on the team anymore. You 155 00:06:54,148 --> 00:06:56,868 Speaker 6: go back from when Vic Fangio was there, it is 156 00:06:56,948 --> 00:06:59,908 Speaker 6: now a familiar face who's going to be walking the sidelines. 157 00:06:59,988 --> 00:07:02,708 Speaker 6: He is going to be calling the defense for them, 158 00:07:02,828 --> 00:07:05,508 Speaker 6: and that's Vance Joseph. He is back. And this guy 159 00:07:05,628 --> 00:07:07,788 Speaker 6: was the head coach for the Denver Broncos for two 160 00:07:07,868 --> 00:07:10,908 Speaker 6: seasons where they had eleven wins. Now he's back in 161 00:07:10,908 --> 00:07:13,188 Speaker 6: the building. There's only two players there. And Justin Simmons 162 00:07:13,268 --> 00:07:15,268 Speaker 6: was one of those guys who was there when Vans 163 00:07:15,388 --> 00:07:17,108 Speaker 6: was there, and he talked about he's happy to have 164 00:07:17,188 --> 00:07:19,708 Speaker 6: him back. He's excited. He loved him as a coach, 165 00:07:19,988 --> 00:07:22,588 Speaker 6: they didn't have a ton of success there. And for him, 166 00:07:22,988 --> 00:07:25,548 Speaker 6: he wants a defense that is more of an attacking defense, 167 00:07:25,588 --> 00:07:27,908 Speaker 6: wants to put pressure. And you saw that in Arizona 168 00:07:28,148 --> 00:07:31,468 Speaker 6: where the numbers weren't stellar, weren't great, but he was 169 00:07:31,508 --> 00:07:33,868 Speaker 6: a guy where you would see everybody up at the 170 00:07:33,908 --> 00:07:35,788 Speaker 6: line of scrimmage to try to put a ton of 171 00:07:35,828 --> 00:07:39,588 Speaker 6: fear and defenses while he was their defensive coordinator. Now, 172 00:07:39,588 --> 00:07:42,388 Speaker 6: when you take over, how much of his style does 173 00:07:42,388 --> 00:07:44,588 Speaker 6: he implement right away? When you have guys who've been 174 00:07:44,628 --> 00:07:47,428 Speaker 6: running a defense a certain way, how fast are they 175 00:07:47,428 --> 00:07:50,028 Speaker 6: able to buy into his philosophy? How fast he able 176 00:07:50,028 --> 00:07:52,548 Speaker 6: to get them to learn his terminology and the things 177 00:07:52,548 --> 00:07:55,188 Speaker 6: that he wants to do defensively. For the Denver Broncos 178 00:07:55,188 --> 00:07:57,348 Speaker 6: to be able to compete, can you get Patrick Mahomes 179 00:07:57,388 --> 00:07:59,508 Speaker 6: off the field during a two minute drill? Can you 180 00:07:59,588 --> 00:08:02,588 Speaker 6: force Justin Herbert to throw an interception when it matters 181 00:08:02,628 --> 00:08:05,588 Speaker 6: most in those type of games and vision you're going 182 00:08:05,628 --> 00:08:07,588 Speaker 6: to have to come up with big stops. And they 183 00:08:07,628 --> 00:08:10,308 Speaker 6: have the probably the best cornerback on one of the best, 184 00:08:10,348 --> 00:08:12,668 Speaker 6: and Patrick certain and Justin sim is one of the 185 00:08:12,708 --> 00:08:15,108 Speaker 6: best safeties in the game. How much are they able 186 00:08:15,308 --> 00:08:17,668 Speaker 6: to buy into what's being sold by Vance Joseph and 187 00:08:17,708 --> 00:08:19,428 Speaker 6: turn it into production on a football field. 188 00:08:19,508 --> 00:08:22,628 Speaker 1: They have really good players and really good coaches. It 189 00:08:22,788 --> 00:08:24,748 Speaker 1: just it's so much rust to me. You know, we 190 00:08:24,908 --> 00:08:27,428 Speaker 1: just showed the Chiefs visiting the White House. The Seahawks 191 00:08:27,508 --> 00:08:29,148 Speaker 1: visited the White House. I pulled up the picture and 192 00:08:29,188 --> 00:08:32,108 Speaker 1: it's it's the Seahawks with Obama like Russ looks like 193 00:08:32,108 --> 00:08:32,588 Speaker 1: a baby. 194 00:08:32,628 --> 00:08:34,748 Speaker 2: It was nine years ago. Peter, I'll put you on 195 00:08:34,748 --> 00:08:35,108 Speaker 2: the spot. 196 00:08:35,268 --> 00:08:37,388 Speaker 1: There's Obama and Rust Wilson's right next to what other 197 00:08:37,428 --> 00:08:39,308 Speaker 1: Seahawks players on the other side of the president? 198 00:08:39,308 --> 00:08:39,868 Speaker 6: Who do you think it was? 199 00:08:39,908 --> 00:08:41,228 Speaker 2: Say the MVP Malcolm Smith. 200 00:08:41,308 --> 00:08:44,708 Speaker 1: Got's a great prediction with Doug Baldewins Doug Baldwin and 201 00:08:44,708 --> 00:08:46,388 Speaker 1: there's Percy Harvin re It's a hell of a picture. 202 00:08:46,388 --> 00:08:48,988 Speaker 1: It's taken time to look at it. My question is 203 00:08:49,068 --> 00:08:51,948 Speaker 1: does he have any shot of ever going to the 204 00:08:51,988 --> 00:08:54,268 Speaker 1: White House with this team again? This president, next president 205 00:08:54,308 --> 00:08:56,668 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You don't see a season like we just 206 00:08:56,748 --> 00:09:00,188 Speaker 1: saw where a fantastic player who so many people think 207 00:09:00,228 --> 00:09:02,548 Speaker 1: will be a Hall of Famer has that rough of 208 00:09:02,588 --> 00:09:05,268 Speaker 1: a season in the middle of his career, he changed teams, 209 00:09:05,308 --> 00:09:08,948 Speaker 1: he changed coaches. You know, Peyton Manning changed teams and 210 00:09:09,028 --> 00:09:12,108 Speaker 1: changed coaches. Aaron Rodgers changed coaches in the middle of 211 00:09:12,148 --> 00:09:12,948 Speaker 1: this time at Green Bay. 212 00:09:12,948 --> 00:09:15,508 Speaker 2: He's now changing teams. I don't think that ever happened. 213 00:09:15,548 --> 00:09:16,548 Speaker 6: You just don't see it. 214 00:09:16,588 --> 00:09:19,588 Speaker 1: And was it because Nathaniel Hackett is the worst coach 215 00:09:19,588 --> 00:09:22,148 Speaker 1: of all time? And maybe it had something to do 216 00:09:22,188 --> 00:09:24,388 Speaker 1: with it. It's not that he didn't win the MVP 217 00:09:24,508 --> 00:09:27,348 Speaker 1: like Peter predicted, It's just he wasn't relevant at all. 218 00:09:27,908 --> 00:09:29,828 Speaker 1: And I don't want to dig that up more or less. 219 00:09:29,828 --> 00:09:31,948 Speaker 2: I'm just moving forward, like, you got to be great 220 00:09:32,068 --> 00:09:32,508 Speaker 2: right now. 221 00:09:32,828 --> 00:09:35,748 Speaker 1: If you're landing in the NFC in Russ's decent, next year, 222 00:09:35,788 --> 00:09:38,348 Speaker 1: the pladcast will do some things. My god, you're in 223 00:09:38,348 --> 00:09:40,828 Speaker 1: that gauntlet and not just the AFC, You're in THEFC 224 00:09:40,988 --> 00:09:43,748 Speaker 1: West Gauntlet. He needs to be fantastic. And I love 225 00:09:43,788 --> 00:09:45,948 Speaker 1: Sean Paide as much as the next guy. But it 226 00:09:45,988 --> 00:09:48,028 Speaker 1: was rough last year. It was really rough, and I 227 00:09:48,068 --> 00:09:50,468 Speaker 1: think there were locker room issues with him, and I 228 00:09:50,468 --> 00:09:53,268 Speaker 1: think there were image issues, and more than anything, it 229 00:09:53,308 --> 00:09:54,148 Speaker 1: was just performance. 230 00:09:54,748 --> 00:09:55,868 Speaker 2: It just wasn't getting done. 231 00:09:55,908 --> 00:10:00,428 Speaker 1: He didn't look anything like a Mahomes or Herbert or 232 00:10:00,508 --> 00:10:02,748 Speaker 1: at anyway, he's got to be great this year. If 233 00:10:02,748 --> 00:10:04,548 Speaker 1: he comes back this year and he's like, oh us 234 00:10:04,588 --> 00:10:06,348 Speaker 1: at a nice little bounce back year, they're done. You 235 00:10:06,388 --> 00:10:09,068 Speaker 1: can't have a nice little anything in the AFC. The 236 00:10:09,108 --> 00:10:11,268 Speaker 1: Broncos need to make the playoffs. They need to scrap 237 00:10:11,268 --> 00:10:13,508 Speaker 1: into a wildcard game. They'd be great lose a wildcard 238 00:10:13,508 --> 00:10:14,268 Speaker 1: game twenty one to. 239 00:10:14,228 --> 00:10:15,668 Speaker 6: Ten successful season. 240 00:10:16,028 --> 00:10:18,588 Speaker 2: That's where we're at with them. If he's decent, if 241 00:10:18,588 --> 00:10:19,988 Speaker 2: he's good, they're not going to get there. 242 00:10:20,028 --> 00:10:21,588 Speaker 6: He needs to be really good next year. 243 00:10:21,748 --> 00:10:23,068 Speaker 2: I don't know if he has an I mean I 244 00:10:23,188 --> 00:10:25,348 Speaker 2: know that still there. That's the question. 245 00:10:25,788 --> 00:10:26,228 Speaker 6: I don't know. 246 00:10:26,668 --> 00:10:29,028 Speaker 1: I have no idea. They have a great roster and 247 00:10:29,068 --> 00:10:30,788 Speaker 1: they have a great coach. I don't know if they 248 00:10:30,788 --> 00:10:32,388 Speaker 1: have a great quarterbacks. Still we have to find out. 249 00:10:32,588 --> 00:10:34,388 Speaker 3: Kyle, to your point about when you were talking about 250 00:10:34,428 --> 00:10:36,868 Speaker 3: these other guys have changed teams. Peyton's change teams, Aaron's 251 00:10:36,908 --> 00:10:40,068 Speaker 3: change teams, change changed well. I want to say they 252 00:10:40,108 --> 00:10:42,788 Speaker 3: don't necessarily turn around when the Super Bowl, though, Peyton 253 00:10:42,988 --> 00:10:43,628 Speaker 3: with another team and. 254 00:10:44,068 --> 00:10:44,908 Speaker 2: All his peers do it. 255 00:10:44,948 --> 00:10:47,308 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers changed teams and was in the playoffs in 256 00:10:47,348 --> 00:10:49,828 Speaker 1: the first year, like you do it and you adjust 257 00:10:49,868 --> 00:10:50,788 Speaker 1: because you're that good. 258 00:10:51,268 --> 00:10:52,388 Speaker 2: He needs to adjust this year. 259 00:10:52,468 --> 00:10:55,668 Speaker 4: But what you don't see for these guys that are these. 260 00:10:55,588 --> 00:10:59,708 Speaker 3: Super high caliber quarterbacks and face of the franchise guys, 261 00:11:00,148 --> 00:11:01,828 Speaker 3: you don't see even if you have a hiccup on 262 00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:03,388 Speaker 3: the field, you don't see kind of all the stuff 263 00:11:03,388 --> 00:11:05,548 Speaker 3: that happened off the field, Like you've just never seen 264 00:11:05,628 --> 00:11:10,748 Speaker 3: that sort of implosion, like both simultaneously, both on and 265 00:11:10,788 --> 00:11:12,748 Speaker 3: off the field in the way that that shook out. 266 00:11:12,988 --> 00:11:14,188 Speaker 4: A question though, I have for. 267 00:11:14,148 --> 00:11:16,028 Speaker 3: You, Peter, though, as we were talking about this, is 268 00:11:16,268 --> 00:11:18,068 Speaker 3: so much is put on Sean Payton. I feel like, 269 00:11:18,268 --> 00:11:20,388 Speaker 3: and we were talking about it, even with Aaron Rodgers 270 00:11:20,428 --> 00:11:21,788 Speaker 3: being the biggest office, he's an acquisition. 271 00:11:21,788 --> 00:11:22,988 Speaker 4: He said, well, maybe it's Sean Payton. 272 00:11:23,548 --> 00:11:26,108 Speaker 3: I mean we talk about him though, like he's throwing 273 00:11:26,148 --> 00:11:28,828 Speaker 3: touchdown passes and is it I don't want to say 274 00:11:28,828 --> 00:11:31,388 Speaker 3: it's unfair because Sean obviously took the job knowing what 275 00:11:31,468 --> 00:11:35,148 Speaker 3: comes with that, right, But is Sean Payton expected to 276 00:11:35,188 --> 00:11:36,348 Speaker 3: be this messige? 277 00:11:36,388 --> 00:11:38,868 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, he's expected to be this messiah? Is 278 00:11:38,908 --> 00:11:40,228 Speaker 4: that completely fair? 279 00:11:40,508 --> 00:11:43,428 Speaker 5: At that salary and what he's making and when they 280 00:11:43,508 --> 00:11:45,388 Speaker 5: went on this worldwide search where they could have hired 281 00:11:45,388 --> 00:11:47,388 Speaker 5: anybody they wanted, and they gave it to Sean Payne. 282 00:11:47,388 --> 00:11:50,588 Speaker 5: He came out of retirement for this. Yeah, and I 283 00:11:50,588 --> 00:11:52,188 Speaker 5: don't think failure is an option. 284 00:11:52,308 --> 00:11:54,388 Speaker 3: But considering he can't step on the field, I feel 285 00:11:54,388 --> 00:11:56,788 Speaker 3: like we talk about Sean like he can throw four 286 00:11:56,828 --> 00:12:01,108 Speaker 3: touchdowns in a game, and he can you know, men 287 00:12:01,188 --> 00:12:02,468 Speaker 3: whatever relationship, I don't know. 288 00:12:02,508 --> 00:12:04,028 Speaker 4: It's just almost like Sean Payton. 289 00:12:04,108 --> 00:12:07,348 Speaker 3: They got anointed because of Sean Payton, and that's not 290 00:12:07,788 --> 00:12:10,668 Speaker 3: it's not Jem Payton's. Like it feels like so much 291 00:12:10,748 --> 00:12:12,468 Speaker 3: is being asked Sean. 292 00:12:12,268 --> 00:12:14,988 Speaker 6: Pate, Yeah, go Chempayne won won Super Bowl. I know, 293 00:12:15,148 --> 00:12:17,828 Speaker 6: so we talked about him going to the Cowboys. Mike 294 00:12:17,908 --> 00:12:20,188 Speaker 6: McCarthy won one Super Bowl. We brought up the wins, 295 00:12:20,268 --> 00:12:22,708 Speaker 6: losses and a whole nine. So it's a very interesting 296 00:12:22,948 --> 00:12:25,268 Speaker 6: point to your What you're saying is just that I 297 00:12:25,268 --> 00:12:28,628 Speaker 6: don't know, even for Uss, what if he does play 298 00:12:28,708 --> 00:12:31,468 Speaker 6: great this season, and we talked about all the quarterbacks 299 00:12:31,468 --> 00:12:34,828 Speaker 6: in AFC, is it okay if Russ plays great and 300 00:12:34,868 --> 00:12:37,308 Speaker 6: they just missed the playoffs not because of his bad play, 301 00:12:37,348 --> 00:12:40,548 Speaker 6: but just Trevor Lawrence played this year. 302 00:12:40,548 --> 00:12:41,708 Speaker 2: I think it's a great failure. 303 00:12:41,708 --> 00:12:44,628 Speaker 5: If they're paying Russell Wilson as much as any correcting league, 304 00:12:44,628 --> 00:12:46,028 Speaker 5: they're paying a coach more than any coach in the 305 00:12:46,108 --> 00:12:49,628 Speaker 5: league close to I don't think it's acceptable to miss 306 00:12:49,668 --> 00:12:50,308 Speaker 5: the playoffs. 307 00:12:50,908 --> 00:12:53,068 Speaker 2: I think that's tough. I know you're one. 308 00:12:53,268 --> 00:12:54,948 Speaker 6: That's how it is, but that's that's what time it is. 309 00:12:55,668 --> 00:12:58,268 Speaker 1: I think last year and the Russ to Denver thing 310 00:12:58,948 --> 00:13:02,188 Speaker 1: played into and fed the worst impulses of his ego 311 00:13:02,308 --> 00:13:04,068 Speaker 1: and his self image. I really mean that he looked 312 00:13:04,068 --> 00:13:06,268 Speaker 1: he was looked at as this messiah. I remember him 313 00:13:06,268 --> 00:13:09,068 Speaker 1: in training camp. His teammates are taking selfies with him. 314 00:13:09,068 --> 00:13:12,508 Speaker 2: There's this Russ thing and Russ Game one at Seattle. 315 00:13:12,548 --> 00:13:15,748 Speaker 1: It was a massive thing of expectations where he's like, 316 00:13:15,788 --> 00:13:17,668 Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm the man, I'm a god. This 317 00:13:17,748 --> 00:13:20,028 Speaker 1: year there's no expectations for him. It's like, oh my god, 318 00:13:20,028 --> 00:13:21,948 Speaker 1: what can you do now? Russ the bloom is off 319 00:13:21,948 --> 00:13:23,588 Speaker 1: the roads completely, and we're talking about the other teams 320 00:13:23,588 --> 00:13:25,668 Speaker 1: and Indivision. I think they actually could be good where 321 00:13:25,708 --> 00:13:27,948 Speaker 1: he'll just be more a great eye and like go 322 00:13:27,988 --> 00:13:30,148 Speaker 1: to work rather than like being this savior. 323 00:13:30,228 --> 00:13:31,988 Speaker 5: I said yesterday on the show, who's gonna Who's the 324 00:13:31,988 --> 00:13:33,988 Speaker 5: biggest challenge to the Chiefs, And we all went around 325 00:13:34,028 --> 00:13:37,588 Speaker 5: there like Chargers. Charge did not say Broncos. So that's 326 00:13:37,628 --> 00:13:39,748 Speaker 5: already putting him at three. Yeah, if you're asking me 327 00:13:39,788 --> 00:13:43,908 Speaker 5: Broncos or Raiders, I don't know. So if you're talking 328 00:13:43,908 --> 00:13:46,108 Speaker 5: about a team that's in fourth place in the AFC West, 329 00:13:46,268 --> 00:13:49,068 Speaker 5: after what they've spent in free agency, what they spent 330 00:13:49,188 --> 00:13:51,548 Speaker 5: their coach, you gotta it has to be better. 331 00:13:51,628 --> 00:13:51,828 Speaker 6: Yeah. 332 00:13:52,428 --> 00:13:54,028 Speaker 3: We were talking about this a year ago in the 333 00:13:54,188 --> 00:13:56,668 Speaker 3: off season and we said who's going to win this division? 334 00:13:56,748 --> 00:13:59,028 Speaker 3: We were like, oh my god, look at the Broncos now. 335 00:13:59,148 --> 00:14:02,028 Speaker 3: And now it's just such an opposite end of the spectrum. 336 00:14:02,028 --> 00:14:04,308 Speaker 3: They've been last in the division the last three season. 337 00:14:04,508 --> 00:14:06,228 Speaker 3: I mean, I know that's not Russ's fault. 338 00:14:06,268 --> 00:14:09,628 Speaker 4: Prior to that, we're talking about contending they have to 339 00:14:09,748 --> 00:14:12,188 Speaker 4: they have to be not last. I mean, it's. 340 00:14:11,908 --> 00:14:14,148 Speaker 2: It's Peter Willet and payting for Coachy the this year. 341 00:14:14,148 --> 00:14:17,708 Speaker 6: I'm predicting it right now. You probably yeah, I don't 342 00:14:17,708 --> 00:14:18,548 Speaker 6: do that. It didn't work out. 343 00:14:18,788 --> 00:14:23,908 Speaker 2: I'm going to go double down. Fine, go for it. 344 00:14:27,668 --> 00:14:29,988 Speaker 5: Tuesday morning, we now welcome to the show our NFL 345 00:14:30,028 --> 00:14:31,548 Speaker 5: network front office analysts. 346 00:14:31,588 --> 00:14:32,188 Speaker 2: You know him well. 347 00:14:32,228 --> 00:14:34,388 Speaker 5: He's won three Super Bowls. It's the VP of Player 348 00:14:34,428 --> 00:14:36,588 Speaker 5: Personnel for the New England Patriots. He's a friend of ours, 349 00:14:36,628 --> 00:14:37,228 Speaker 5: ladies and gentlemen. 350 00:14:37,268 --> 00:14:38,668 Speaker 2: Let's meet Scott Piola. 351 00:14:40,908 --> 00:14:42,828 Speaker 6: Good morning, Good morning, everybody. 352 00:14:42,868 --> 00:14:45,028 Speaker 7: Good to be back. I missed you guys last week. 353 00:14:45,908 --> 00:14:47,348 Speaker 2: I know it's great to have you back. 354 00:14:47,348 --> 00:14:49,948 Speaker 5: We love your energy, and the Jets fans are loving 355 00:14:49,948 --> 00:14:52,228 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers energy right now. The Jets went from having 356 00:14:52,268 --> 00:14:55,308 Speaker 5: a project quarterback in Zach Wilson the last couple of years, 357 00:14:55,388 --> 00:14:57,428 Speaker 5: it's now having a future Hall of Famer and Aaron Rodgers. 358 00:14:57,468 --> 00:15:00,308 Speaker 5: We're in New York City. This guy could do no 359 00:15:00,388 --> 00:15:02,548 Speaker 5: wrong with these Jets fans right now. So the team's 360 00:15:02,588 --> 00:15:07,028 Speaker 5: expectations have changed draft stically this offseason. But put yourself 361 00:15:07,068 --> 00:15:09,588 Speaker 5: in that front office perspective, How does this change the 362 00:15:09,708 --> 00:15:16,588 Speaker 5: organization's goals during OTAs. There's a little temporary expectations as well, Peter. 363 00:15:16,988 --> 00:15:19,348 Speaker 7: Nothing should really change in terms of the goals for 364 00:15:19,428 --> 00:15:23,228 Speaker 7: OTAs or the process. You know, it was very interesting 365 00:15:23,228 --> 00:15:25,188 Speaker 7: in the last segment for the folks that were watching 366 00:15:25,268 --> 00:15:29,628 Speaker 7: you guys, talked about Russell Wilson and expectations. I'm not 367 00:15:29,668 --> 00:15:33,628 Speaker 7: comparing Aaron Rodgers to Russell Wilson, but what I'm saying 368 00:15:33,708 --> 00:15:35,948 Speaker 7: is if you're a team and you prepare, you have 369 00:15:36,028 --> 00:15:37,668 Speaker 7: to have a system in place. You have to have 370 00:15:37,708 --> 00:15:40,388 Speaker 7: a process in place. There's things that you want to 371 00:15:40,428 --> 00:15:42,788 Speaker 7: accomplish in the spring that you want to accomplish in 372 00:15:42,828 --> 00:15:45,908 Speaker 7: the OTAs. You need to go through your process. Everyone 373 00:15:45,988 --> 00:15:48,868 Speaker 7: laughs when they hear that word, but that is the 374 00:15:48,988 --> 00:15:51,828 Speaker 7: key to success. You can't start thinking about long term 375 00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:53,748 Speaker 7: results and what the end game is going to be. 376 00:15:54,068 --> 00:15:56,628 Speaker 7: If you do things the right way week by week, 377 00:15:56,988 --> 00:16:00,028 Speaker 7: day by day, month by month, you'll put yourself in 378 00:16:00,068 --> 00:16:02,308 Speaker 7: a place to succeed. I think the most important thing 379 00:16:02,588 --> 00:16:05,468 Speaker 7: that they have to do right now is manage expectations 380 00:16:05,508 --> 00:16:08,868 Speaker 7: of all the noise. Manage expectations of how one person 381 00:16:08,948 --> 00:16:11,188 Speaker 7: is going to change this club, and make sure that 382 00:16:11,268 --> 00:16:14,468 Speaker 7: everyone is doing their job and each person and each 383 00:16:14,588 --> 00:16:17,908 Speaker 7: coach and every player gets better week by week. 384 00:16:19,988 --> 00:16:22,708 Speaker 3: A completely different topic, Scott, that we were talking about 385 00:16:22,748 --> 00:16:24,588 Speaker 3: in the commercial break before they cut our mics off, 386 00:16:24,628 --> 00:16:26,748 Speaker 3: Because I have really so many questions about this. Our 387 00:16:26,868 --> 00:16:30,668 Speaker 3: NFL Network insider Ian Rappaport reported on that addendum that 388 00:16:30,748 --> 00:16:34,108 Speaker 3: was added into Jimmy G's Raiders contract, which stated. 389 00:16:33,788 --> 00:16:35,268 Speaker 4: He would otherwise not. 390 00:16:35,268 --> 00:16:38,308 Speaker 3: Have passed the team's physical because of that injured foot. 391 00:16:38,668 --> 00:16:42,628 Speaker 3: Explain to us what that means and why those injury 392 00:16:42,668 --> 00:16:45,388 Speaker 3: waivers are put into these contracts. 393 00:16:46,508 --> 00:16:48,948 Speaker 7: Sarah, Listen, when that report first came out on Pro 394 00:16:48,988 --> 00:16:51,908 Speaker 7: Football Talk a couple of weeks ago, it made everything 395 00:16:51,988 --> 00:16:54,708 Speaker 7: makes so much more sense. Remember, there was the delay 396 00:16:54,748 --> 00:16:57,508 Speaker 7: in the signing. There was an agreement to terms, the 397 00:16:57,548 --> 00:16:59,188 Speaker 7: deal was done, but then it took a couple of 398 00:16:59,228 --> 00:17:02,148 Speaker 7: days to get done. Clearly, what happened here was the 399 00:17:02,268 --> 00:17:04,668 Speaker 7: terms were agreed to, then when Jimmy G came in, 400 00:17:04,988 --> 00:17:07,268 Speaker 7: they did a physical on them. And this happens in 401 00:17:07,308 --> 00:17:11,308 Speaker 7: this The process happens in that order very often. And 402 00:17:11,348 --> 00:17:13,748 Speaker 7: what happens sometimes is a player will come in, they'll 403 00:17:13,788 --> 00:17:16,588 Speaker 7: find out that there's an injury that is a real problem, 404 00:17:16,748 --> 00:17:19,108 Speaker 7: and what they have to do then is make sure 405 00:17:19,148 --> 00:17:22,068 Speaker 7: that they mitigate the risk that they take, meaning the club. 406 00:17:22,308 --> 00:17:23,948 Speaker 7: So the club then goes to the player and the 407 00:17:24,028 --> 00:17:26,708 Speaker 7: agent says, hey, listen, we've got a pre existing injury here. 408 00:17:26,948 --> 00:17:29,468 Speaker 7: This is a problem. We shouldn't be on the hook 409 00:17:29,508 --> 00:17:33,068 Speaker 7: and guaranteed for a problem that exists now, especially in 410 00:17:33,108 --> 00:17:34,788 Speaker 7: the fact that we're going to have to do surgery 411 00:17:34,868 --> 00:17:38,308 Speaker 7: right now. So what teams do and agents try to 412 00:17:38,308 --> 00:17:41,108 Speaker 7: do is they try to negotiate a situation like this 413 00:17:41,148 --> 00:17:43,828 Speaker 7: where they will take a specific body part and put 414 00:17:43,868 --> 00:17:47,108 Speaker 7: a waiver on that body part. But what happens sometimes 415 00:17:47,148 --> 00:17:51,228 Speaker 7: is teams try to get too onerous in their behavior 416 00:17:51,268 --> 00:17:53,468 Speaker 7: and they try to do a contract. Well, they'll be 417 00:17:53,628 --> 00:17:56,948 Speaker 7: very vague and they'll say, well, the entire ankle where 418 00:17:57,268 --> 00:17:59,428 Speaker 7: the agent and the union want to make sure that 419 00:17:59,508 --> 00:18:02,308 Speaker 7: a player doesn't make it that vague and that's a 420 00:18:02,468 --> 00:18:05,988 Speaker 7: very specific part. So this was not that unique if 421 00:18:06,028 --> 00:18:09,268 Speaker 7: you spend time doing contracts. But to me, it made 422 00:18:09,348 --> 00:18:12,228 Speaker 7: everything makes so much more sense, and both sides have 423 00:18:12,388 --> 00:18:14,788 Speaker 7: mitigated their risk and it was fair to both sides. 424 00:18:14,828 --> 00:18:18,748 Speaker 6: It sounds like, yeah, very interesting, Scott. I've known guys 425 00:18:18,788 --> 00:18:21,428 Speaker 6: that have gone and gone to fail the physical and 426 00:18:21,828 --> 00:18:23,828 Speaker 6: offers are pulled and they don't end up signing with 427 00:18:23,828 --> 00:18:25,948 Speaker 6: that team and have to go look elsewhere. So the 428 00:18:26,068 --> 00:18:28,388 Speaker 6: Raiders still stuck with Jimmy Jai'll be interested to see 429 00:18:28,388 --> 00:18:30,228 Speaker 6: how it unfolds. But Scott I want to talk to 430 00:18:30,228 --> 00:18:32,588 Speaker 6: you a little bit about the Patriots. Mac Jones obviously 431 00:18:32,668 --> 00:18:35,188 Speaker 6: struggled last season, a lot of things going on with 432 00:18:35,268 --> 00:18:38,028 Speaker 6: offensive coaches and all of those things, but they're looking 433 00:18:38,068 --> 00:18:40,428 Speaker 6: forward to twenty twenty three. So when you hear mac 434 00:18:40,508 --> 00:18:42,628 Speaker 6: Jones say, hey, I want to start this season by 435 00:18:42,668 --> 00:18:45,548 Speaker 6: earning everyone's respect, what are your thoughts on that? 436 00:18:47,428 --> 00:18:51,188 Speaker 7: Jason, I absolutely loved his candor and I loved his humility. 437 00:18:51,668 --> 00:18:54,188 Speaker 7: What he had done was he came out and he 438 00:18:54,308 --> 00:18:58,588 Speaker 7: put public accountability on himself, not only to the media, 439 00:18:58,668 --> 00:19:01,268 Speaker 7: but to his team and his teammates. I don't know 440 00:19:01,308 --> 00:19:03,028 Speaker 7: this for sure, but my guess is that he had 441 00:19:03,028 --> 00:19:07,068 Speaker 7: a conversation with his team, manned up, owned his stuff, 442 00:19:07,308 --> 00:19:09,548 Speaker 7: and said, hey, listen, I wasn't the best version of 443 00:19:09,588 --> 00:19:12,108 Speaker 7: myself last year, not only as a player but as 444 00:19:12,108 --> 00:19:15,908 Speaker 7: a person. Because he that alluded to that in his words. 445 00:19:16,268 --> 00:19:19,428 Speaker 7: So you all know this that sometimes you can say 446 00:19:19,468 --> 00:19:22,548 Speaker 7: things in private and try to convince people, but you 447 00:19:22,588 --> 00:19:25,668 Speaker 7: don't necessarily live that way publicly. I love that mac 448 00:19:25,748 --> 00:19:28,508 Speaker 7: Jones talked about it privately with his teammates but came 449 00:19:28,548 --> 00:19:31,148 Speaker 7: out and let his teammates know, Hey, this isn't real 450 00:19:31,188 --> 00:19:33,508 Speaker 7: I'm not trying to con you guys. I need to 451 00:19:33,508 --> 00:19:36,468 Speaker 7: be better. I'm going to be better and again to me, 452 00:19:37,388 --> 00:19:40,788 Speaker 7: you know, I love leadership when people admit their flaws 453 00:19:40,908 --> 00:19:43,868 Speaker 7: or their shortcomings and mistakes and then try to do 454 00:19:43,948 --> 00:19:46,668 Speaker 7: better and be better. So I absolutely loved what mac 455 00:19:46,748 --> 00:19:47,548 Speaker 7: Jones did. 456 00:19:49,148 --> 00:19:49,308 Speaker 5: Well. 457 00:19:49,308 --> 00:19:52,308 Speaker 1: Scott, you mentioned leadership and the NFL world lost a 458 00:19:52,388 --> 00:19:54,748 Speaker 1: legend with the passing of Norma Hunt, who was the 459 00:19:54,788 --> 00:19:57,108 Speaker 1: matriarch of the Kansas City Chiefs. You, of course, former 460 00:19:57,228 --> 00:20:00,228 Speaker 1: Chiefs General manager, Scott, take a minute, what would you 461 00:20:00,268 --> 00:20:02,828 Speaker 1: like to say about her impacts, the impact she had 462 00:20:02,868 --> 00:20:04,868 Speaker 1: on you, the Chiefs, and the entire NFL. 463 00:20:06,868 --> 00:20:09,628 Speaker 7: You know, Kyle, Norma was one of the ends, and 464 00:20:09,668 --> 00:20:11,668 Speaker 7: she made us all call her normal. She never went 465 00:20:11,708 --> 00:20:14,108 Speaker 7: by missus Hunt. To those of us who worked with 466 00:20:14,148 --> 00:20:16,148 Speaker 7: her and worked for her, she was one of the 467 00:20:16,148 --> 00:20:19,028 Speaker 7: most wonderful people that I met during my three decades 468 00:20:19,068 --> 00:20:22,228 Speaker 7: in the NFL. She had this love, this grace, this warmth, 469 00:20:22,748 --> 00:20:25,948 Speaker 7: not towards just me, but towards my family. And there 470 00:20:26,028 --> 00:20:28,988 Speaker 7: was some really rough times near the end, and Norma 471 00:20:29,068 --> 00:20:31,948 Speaker 7: stayed close to my family, to my wife, to my daughter, 472 00:20:31,988 --> 00:20:34,628 Speaker 7: and myself. She was one of the most caring and 473 00:20:34,708 --> 00:20:38,668 Speaker 7: thoughtful people that I've met, and an incredible leader, and 474 00:20:39,428 --> 00:20:42,228 Speaker 7: the league lost a giant, without a doubt, she had 475 00:20:42,228 --> 00:20:45,908 Speaker 7: this voice of calm and wisdom and history and experience, 476 00:20:46,548 --> 00:20:50,388 Speaker 7: and again, I'll just never forget. After I was gone 477 00:20:50,468 --> 00:20:53,588 Speaker 7: from the Chiefs, she continued to write me notes, to 478 00:20:53,748 --> 00:20:56,108 Speaker 7: make calls, to stay in touch, to make sure that 479 00:20:56,188 --> 00:20:58,948 Speaker 7: my family and I were okay. She was a really, 480 00:20:58,988 --> 00:21:02,268 Speaker 7: really remarkable woman. And I really do want to send 481 00:21:02,268 --> 00:21:05,828 Speaker 7: my loving condolences to the entire Hunt family, but specifically 482 00:21:05,948 --> 00:21:11,628 Speaker 7: Clark Entavia and Daniel and Tony, and my heart really 483 00:21:11,628 --> 00:21:15,028 Speaker 7: goes out for them. And she was an absolute legend 484 00:21:15,068 --> 00:21:16,148 Speaker 7: and an amazing person. 485 00:21:23,028 --> 00:21:23,828 Speaker 4: Let's get it out there. 486 00:21:23,988 --> 00:21:26,508 Speaker 3: It is, Oh, you'll see it time now for the 487 00:21:26,868 --> 00:21:32,108 Speaker 3: least one free agent not reporting to any mandatory mini 488 00:21:32,108 --> 00:21:34,988 Speaker 3: camps for the time being is birthday Boy wide receiver 489 00:21:35,028 --> 00:21:36,068 Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins. 490 00:21:36,148 --> 00:21:38,428 Speaker 4: He turns thirty one years old today. 491 00:21:38,508 --> 00:21:39,148 Speaker 2: How about that. 492 00:21:39,308 --> 00:21:43,828 Speaker 3: Here's Cowboys owner Jerry Jones on the possibility of Dallas signing. 493 00:21:43,628 --> 00:21:44,228 Speaker 4: D hop. 494 00:21:48,508 --> 00:21:48,828 Speaker 8: Again. 495 00:21:49,588 --> 00:21:50,148 Speaker 2: What we. 496 00:21:52,508 --> 00:21:57,388 Speaker 6: Don't dismiss any possibility. 497 00:21:58,388 --> 00:22:02,188 Speaker 8: It's unlikely, Okay, have you had some talk with he 498 00:22:03,068 --> 00:22:06,948 Speaker 8: about coming back again? That I wouldn't want to get 499 00:22:06,948 --> 00:22:10,548 Speaker 8: into the nature of how we've done it, but certainly 500 00:22:10,908 --> 00:22:16,668 Speaker 8: it's no sacred that Zeke is evaluating what his opportunities 501 00:22:16,708 --> 00:22:18,748 Speaker 8: are and we're evaluating what we're doing as well. 502 00:22:22,028 --> 00:22:25,508 Speaker 3: The Cowboys one of those nine teams starting that mandatory 503 00:22:25,508 --> 00:22:26,268 Speaker 3: mini camp today. 504 00:22:26,308 --> 00:22:27,468 Speaker 4: They've got some thinking to do. 505 00:22:27,708 --> 00:22:31,428 Speaker 3: Should they be thinking about going all in and signing 506 00:22:31,508 --> 00:22:32,388 Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins? 507 00:22:32,428 --> 00:22:36,508 Speaker 2: Peter, Yeah, the NFC is wide open. At what cost 508 00:22:36,628 --> 00:22:38,148 Speaker 2: is the question, of course. But I look at the 509 00:22:38,228 --> 00:22:41,068 Speaker 2: NFC and who wants this thing? Are we just crowning 510 00:22:41,068 --> 00:22:42,348 Speaker 2: the Eagles in June? 511 00:22:42,628 --> 00:22:44,828 Speaker 5: Are we just going to concede and say the Eagles 512 00:22:44,868 --> 00:22:46,868 Speaker 5: they bring back a lot of players and they had 513 00:22:46,868 --> 00:22:48,948 Speaker 5: a great draft, and the Eagles. 514 00:22:48,588 --> 00:22:49,188 Speaker 2: Did it last year. 515 00:22:49,228 --> 00:22:49,868 Speaker 4: They're gonna do it. 516 00:22:50,468 --> 00:22:52,228 Speaker 5: Or do you say, let's do what the Eagles did 517 00:22:52,268 --> 00:22:54,868 Speaker 5: last year when they got aj Brown and said let's 518 00:22:54,868 --> 00:22:58,388 Speaker 5: bring in a star receiver. Let's go Look, DeAndre Hopkins 519 00:22:58,468 --> 00:23:01,108 Speaker 5: is probably the best available free agent on offense. I 520 00:23:01,108 --> 00:23:04,908 Speaker 5: think the Cowboys have a very big challenge of ahead 521 00:23:05,028 --> 00:23:08,388 Speaker 5: in that they're changing who's running the offense. I thought 522 00:23:08,468 --> 00:23:11,108 Speaker 5: Kellen Moore did a fine job, maybe not the job 523 00:23:11,148 --> 00:23:13,108 Speaker 5: that they needed to get through in the playoffs. But 524 00:23:13,148 --> 00:23:14,948 Speaker 5: I thought Kellen Moore's offense has always put up a 525 00:23:14,948 --> 00:23:16,388 Speaker 5: lot of yards and always did a lot of things. 526 00:23:16,988 --> 00:23:19,988 Speaker 2: Now Kellen Moore's gone, and we had kJ Wright on. 527 00:23:19,948 --> 00:23:22,268 Speaker 5: The show a couple of days back, and he's going 528 00:23:22,268 --> 00:23:24,108 Speaker 5: through the list and he's like, look, they've got Michael 529 00:23:24,228 --> 00:23:27,068 Speaker 5: Gallup and they've got Brandon Cooks. And I'm like, I 530 00:23:27,108 --> 00:23:30,068 Speaker 5: haven't seen Brandon Cooks and Michael Gallup. 531 00:23:29,748 --> 00:23:31,508 Speaker 2: Tear up the league in the last couple of years. 532 00:23:31,508 --> 00:23:32,748 Speaker 2: One of them is dealing with an injury and other 533 00:23:32,788 --> 00:23:35,188 Speaker 2: one's been irrelevant in Houston. Who put up. 534 00:23:35,188 --> 00:23:37,948 Speaker 5: Numbers but we don't know, like DeAndre Hopkins, you add 535 00:23:37,948 --> 00:23:38,628 Speaker 5: that into the mix. 536 00:23:38,668 --> 00:23:40,148 Speaker 2: I love that for the Cowboys. 537 00:23:40,668 --> 00:23:43,108 Speaker 5: I understand that it doesn't make sense fiscally in a 538 00:23:43,148 --> 00:23:45,748 Speaker 5: lot of ways, but some of the Cowboys moves in 539 00:23:45,788 --> 00:23:47,548 Speaker 5: the past. Has that ever been the issue of don't 540 00:23:47,548 --> 00:23:50,668 Speaker 5: they always finding a way to make those hurdles available 541 00:23:50,708 --> 00:23:51,508 Speaker 5: to be jumped over? 542 00:23:51,628 --> 00:23:54,628 Speaker 2: I like this fit, I think, and I know Jerry 543 00:23:54,708 --> 00:23:56,108 Speaker 2: kind of was arm's length. 544 00:23:56,148 --> 00:23:57,708 Speaker 5: We're good and we're gonna have to pay Cede Lamb 545 00:23:57,708 --> 00:23:59,308 Speaker 5: and we're gonna do all these things. 546 00:23:59,068 --> 00:24:03,068 Speaker 2: For twenty twenty three with a wide open NFC. I 547 00:24:03,068 --> 00:24:05,188 Speaker 2: don't think the gap is that far off from the Eagles. 548 00:24:05,188 --> 00:24:07,308 Speaker 5: You add DeAndre Hopkins, I think that puts the Eagles 549 00:24:07,588 --> 00:24:08,828 Speaker 5: on notice just a little bit. 550 00:24:08,988 --> 00:24:11,628 Speaker 6: Yeah, and it's interesting you say that because big name receiver. 551 00:24:11,708 --> 00:24:14,268 Speaker 6: It just seems like it fits the Cowboys persona. We 552 00:24:14,308 --> 00:24:17,028 Speaker 6: talked about it with Odell Beckham junior. They were interested 553 00:24:17,068 --> 00:24:19,188 Speaker 6: and we're like, he's the perfect fit to go to 554 00:24:19,228 --> 00:24:21,868 Speaker 6: the Cowboys and everything. But I look at this situation 555 00:24:21,948 --> 00:24:24,308 Speaker 6: and DeAndre Hopkins now being a free agent. It seems 556 00:24:24,348 --> 00:24:25,908 Speaker 6: like every day we're gonna pick a team and we're 557 00:24:25,948 --> 00:24:28,268 Speaker 6: gonna say, all right, how about this team go after him? 558 00:24:28,268 --> 00:24:30,988 Speaker 6: How about that team go after him? Interesting to me 559 00:24:31,148 --> 00:24:33,948 Speaker 6: is DeAndre Hopkins has been a star receiver in the 560 00:24:34,028 --> 00:24:37,148 Speaker 6: league since he's been there. We don't know that DeAndre 561 00:24:37,268 --> 00:24:39,508 Speaker 6: Hopkins wants to go play for the Cowboys, and I 562 00:24:39,548 --> 00:24:41,228 Speaker 6: know he's a free agent. We can say, oh, well, 563 00:24:41,388 --> 00:24:43,628 Speaker 6: he may not have the pick up a little to choose. No, 564 00:24:43,668 --> 00:24:45,468 Speaker 6: I think he's gonna have some options to be able 565 00:24:45,468 --> 00:24:47,748 Speaker 6: to decide where he wants to go. And the whole 566 00:24:47,788 --> 00:24:50,428 Speaker 6: conversation came up a few weeks ago. About two weeks ago, 567 00:24:50,628 --> 00:24:53,188 Speaker 6: he was on an im athlete podcast of Brandon Marshall. 568 00:24:53,228 --> 00:24:55,428 Speaker 6: He gave his top five quarterbacks that he'd love to 569 00:24:55,468 --> 00:24:59,148 Speaker 6: play with, and he was asked he was like, Dak Prescott, 570 00:24:59,188 --> 00:25:01,868 Speaker 6: what about him? And DeAndre Connes sits back and he 571 00:25:01,868 --> 00:25:04,028 Speaker 6: gives cond of that Magic Johnson and he was just like, 572 00:25:04,588 --> 00:25:07,068 Speaker 6: I ain't gonna be They're gonna be there, Like DeAndre 573 00:25:07,228 --> 00:25:09,988 Speaker 6: is like, no, I'm good on that. So we're asking Jerry, 574 00:25:10,388 --> 00:25:12,148 Speaker 6: how about you guys go all in and you go 575 00:25:12,228 --> 00:25:14,708 Speaker 6: bring DeAndre Hopkins to the Dallas Cowboys. Put a star 576 00:25:14,828 --> 00:25:16,908 Speaker 6: on his helmet. He can be the guy opposite CD 577 00:25:17,068 --> 00:25:19,348 Speaker 6: Lamb with Cook's taking the top off the defense. I 578 00:25:19,348 --> 00:25:21,668 Speaker 6: don't know if that's what DeAndre Hopkins has and his 579 00:25:21,748 --> 00:25:24,668 Speaker 6: plans of where he wants to go and continue his career. 580 00:25:24,988 --> 00:25:26,668 Speaker 6: This guy, you can say, all right, you just saw 581 00:25:26,668 --> 00:25:28,788 Speaker 6: his birthday, just turned thirty. The one thing about a 582 00:25:28,828 --> 00:25:31,668 Speaker 6: guy like Hopkins is his game was never built on speed. 583 00:25:31,708 --> 00:25:34,148 Speaker 6: It was always built on hands and his ability to 584 00:25:34,228 --> 00:25:37,228 Speaker 6: make contested catches. So maybe he doesn't get as much 585 00:25:37,228 --> 00:25:38,988 Speaker 6: separation as he gets older, but I think this guy 586 00:25:38,988 --> 00:25:41,788 Speaker 6: can still be really effective as a wide receiver, and 587 00:25:41,828 --> 00:25:43,348 Speaker 6: I don't think the fit is in Dallas. 588 00:25:43,548 --> 00:25:47,068 Speaker 1: I'm interested in why though, like your opinion, Why would 589 00:25:47,108 --> 00:25:48,588 Speaker 1: you go to DeAndre Hopkins and be like, all right? 590 00:25:48,628 --> 00:25:50,828 Speaker 1: The Cowboys they just won a playoff game last year, 591 00:25:50,828 --> 00:25:52,428 Speaker 1: they played Tom Brady's last game ever. They have a 592 00:25:52,468 --> 00:25:54,308 Speaker 1: super winning head coach, they have a great quarterback, they 593 00:25:54,348 --> 00:25:55,348 Speaker 1: have an owner who'll do anything. 594 00:25:55,348 --> 00:25:55,948 Speaker 6: They're talented. 595 00:25:56,068 --> 00:25:57,468 Speaker 2: Yeah, why don't you want to be there? 596 00:25:57,468 --> 00:25:58,908 Speaker 6: Can you do? You have a feeling? Why would he 597 00:25:58,948 --> 00:25:59,788 Speaker 6: sit back for the covers? 598 00:25:59,868 --> 00:26:01,388 Speaker 2: Dak's really good? The Cowboys are really good. 599 00:26:02,108 --> 00:26:03,908 Speaker 6: What do you think he had a top five list 600 00:26:03,988 --> 00:26:04,508 Speaker 6: of quarter. 601 00:26:04,468 --> 00:26:06,548 Speaker 1: I know, but why wouldn't I guess Dak's not a 602 00:26:06,548 --> 00:26:07,028 Speaker 1: top five. 603 00:26:06,908 --> 00:26:08,708 Speaker 6: Guys and that's what and maybe that's what he's looking 604 00:26:09,108 --> 00:26:11,948 Speaker 6: love like, Yeah, Dak is a really good football player, 605 00:26:11,948 --> 00:26:14,748 Speaker 6: and they've had a really talented roster and I haven't 606 00:26:14,748 --> 00:26:16,668 Speaker 6: been able to get it done. So maybe he looks 607 00:26:16,668 --> 00:26:18,428 Speaker 6: at it as but neither have the Bills, you know 608 00:26:18,468 --> 00:26:18,868 Speaker 6: what I mean? 609 00:26:18,908 --> 00:26:22,908 Speaker 1: Like, I wonder why he has some sort of Cowboys prejudices. 610 00:26:22,988 --> 00:26:24,908 Speaker 2: I have to watch the clip onlier with. 611 00:26:24,908 --> 00:26:27,228 Speaker 5: The reaction, but to have an aversion to Dak Prescott 612 00:26:27,228 --> 00:26:29,668 Speaker 5: as opposed to as you know, twenty five other quarterback. 613 00:26:29,668 --> 00:26:32,228 Speaker 5: I think Dak's I mean, that's my opinion. I think 614 00:26:32,268 --> 00:26:34,628 Speaker 5: that I love I love that, right, I think so. 615 00:26:35,068 --> 00:26:35,948 Speaker 5: I think that's a good fit. 616 00:26:36,108 --> 00:26:36,908 Speaker 6: Yeah, I do too. 617 00:26:37,188 --> 00:26:39,028 Speaker 1: I guess it's not feeling it. I know something about it. 618 00:26:39,308 --> 00:26:41,348 Speaker 1: I mean I put him in lamb out there. I'm like, 619 00:26:41,348 --> 00:26:43,148 Speaker 1: oh my god, we got some guys right here. I 620 00:26:43,188 --> 00:26:45,988 Speaker 1: think they Zeke Elliott. Portion of what j said's fascinating too, 621 00:26:45,988 --> 00:26:47,548 Speaker 1: that they hadn't closed the door on that. 622 00:26:47,828 --> 00:26:48,588 Speaker 2: And I think it's good. 623 00:26:48,628 --> 00:26:50,708 Speaker 1: Like Zeke, I think is really a beloved cowboy who 624 00:26:50,748 --> 00:26:52,908 Speaker 1: is a really special player over the last ten years. 625 00:26:52,908 --> 00:26:55,548 Speaker 6: But I will said this for a long time now. 626 00:26:55,548 --> 00:26:57,348 Speaker 1: I think they made a terrible decision was signing the 627 00:26:57,388 --> 00:26:59,028 Speaker 1: contract they did, and they did it for reasons that 628 00:26:59,068 --> 00:27:01,068 Speaker 1: weren't football, that were marketing and fame and all that. 629 00:27:01,108 --> 00:27:01,388 Speaker 6: Great. 630 00:27:01,628 --> 00:27:04,308 Speaker 1: His skills deteriorated, he was clearly the second best running back. 631 00:27:04,428 --> 00:27:05,908 Speaker 6: However, he was. 632 00:27:05,868 --> 00:27:07,668 Speaker 1: Really good at being a goal line running back. He's 633 00:27:07,708 --> 00:27:09,428 Speaker 1: a really good pass blocker. I think it'd be cool 634 00:27:09,428 --> 00:27:11,628 Speaker 1: if the cowboy said Zeke, we love you, and not 635 00:27:11,708 --> 00:27:13,428 Speaker 1: seeing a lot of juice there on the street right 636 00:27:13,428 --> 00:27:15,468 Speaker 1: now to sign you some big deal. Would you like 637 00:27:15,508 --> 00:27:17,308 Speaker 1: to come back and be a cowboy to a fiscally 638 00:27:17,348 --> 00:27:19,348 Speaker 1: responsible price, and we'll give you a few carries and 639 00:27:19,348 --> 00:27:21,468 Speaker 1: score some touchdowns. You can jump some kettles. Let's run 640 00:27:21,468 --> 00:27:23,708 Speaker 1: it back. I think that'd be great. Tony Potter is 641 00:27:23,748 --> 00:27:25,028 Speaker 1: the guy. But come in here. 642 00:27:25,028 --> 00:27:27,268 Speaker 2: We like you. You fit, Dak likesha. 643 00:27:27,468 --> 00:27:29,068 Speaker 1: I don't know if Zeke's going to do that, or 644 00:27:29,108 --> 00:27:31,348 Speaker 1: if he's still thinking that, you know, the Texans are 645 00:27:31,348 --> 00:27:32,548 Speaker 1: going to call and give him some big money or 646 00:27:32,548 --> 00:27:34,108 Speaker 1: is I have no idea, but I would like to 647 00:27:34,108 --> 00:27:35,748 Speaker 1: see him as a cowboy, and I think if they 648 00:27:35,748 --> 00:27:37,308 Speaker 1: could offer him a cheap. 649 00:27:37,068 --> 00:27:39,308 Speaker 2: Deal in a really specific role, you should do it. 650 00:27:40,028 --> 00:27:41,188 Speaker 4: I think it makes sense for him to go back 651 00:27:41,188 --> 00:27:41,548 Speaker 4: to cowboys. 652 00:27:41,588 --> 00:27:43,508 Speaker 3: Can we spend this back to that list conversation we're 653 00:27:43,508 --> 00:27:46,828 Speaker 3: having because his list DeAndre Hopkins list was Mahomes, Hurts, 654 00:27:46,908 --> 00:27:50,588 Speaker 3: Alan Jackson Herbert. Also not on that list was his 655 00:27:50,668 --> 00:27:53,668 Speaker 3: former quarterback to Shan Watson, who has already said he 656 00:27:53,748 --> 00:27:56,468 Speaker 3: has gone to the management there and has made a 657 00:27:56,548 --> 00:27:59,228 Speaker 3: case to have So we were talking about, well, how 658 00:27:59,268 --> 00:28:02,148 Speaker 3: is Dak gonna feeling maybe Deshaun's already gone and said 659 00:28:02,188 --> 00:28:04,308 Speaker 3: he's asked management to go out and get Deho. 660 00:28:04,708 --> 00:28:06,308 Speaker 4: He wasn't on Hopkins list. 661 00:28:06,348 --> 00:28:08,148 Speaker 3: And then it's so funny because in this offseason we 662 00:28:08,188 --> 00:28:10,588 Speaker 3: were just talking about we love mandatory mini camp because 663 00:28:10,588 --> 00:28:12,988 Speaker 3: it gives us like tangible football to talk about. 664 00:28:13,148 --> 00:28:13,748 Speaker 4: When there's not. 665 00:28:13,668 --> 00:28:15,748 Speaker 3: Stuff out there, right things are going to be made up.

We just 682 00:28:51,788 --> 00:28:52,548 Speaker 6: didn't get to that. 683 00:28:52,508 --> 00:28:53,748 Speaker 4: Point in hand exactly. 684 00:28:53,788 --> 00:28:55,588 Speaker 3: Didn't want I didn't want to like rough on any feathers. 685 00:28:55,588 --> 00:28:57,348 Speaker 3: Maybe there was no other receiver there anyway. So I 686 00:28:57,388 --> 00:28:59,548 Speaker 3: just think that the list thing is interesting considering when 687 00:28:59,548 --> 00:29:01,788 Speaker 3: we were asking how Dak would take it, DeShawn apparently 688 00:29:01,908 --> 00:29:04,668 Speaker 3: was not. Didn't hurt his feelings enough to stop him 689 00:29:04,868 --> 00:29:06,908 Speaker 3: from asking potentially to get d Hop there. 690 00:29:07,108 --> 00:29:10,628 Speaker 5: It's funny we're in June sixth, yep, yep, and it's 691 00:29:10,668 --> 00:29:13,348 Speaker 5: the second straight day we've started to show like this 692 00:29:13,468 --> 00:29:15,668 Speaker 5: might be the summer of d Hop because I think 693 00:29:15,708 --> 00:29:17,588 Speaker 5: every time I think of these teams, Like early on 694 00:29:17,628 --> 00:29:18,868 Speaker 5: I was like, the Bills make a lot of sense. 695 00:29:18,948 --> 00:29:22,388 Speaker 5: The more I'm thinking about the Cowboys and like yeah, yes, 696 00:29:22,748 --> 00:29:25,108 Speaker 5: like go make this play, be aggressive, bring him in. 697 00:29:25,508 --> 00:29:28,548 Speaker 5: I just pictured the Eagles cake walking to the super 698 00:29:28,548 --> 00:29:29,788 Speaker 5: Bowl right now, and I think of all these other 699 00:29:29,908 --> 00:29:32,548 Speaker 5: NFC teams, whether it be the Niners, whether it be 700 00:29:32,588 --> 00:29:35,788 Speaker 5: the Cowboys, and whether it be you know, the Minnesota Vikings, 701 00:29:35,788 --> 00:29:37,948 Speaker 5: who already have a first round wide receiver to go 702 00:29:37,988 --> 00:29:40,948 Speaker 5: with Justin Jefferson. But it's like at the right cost 703 00:29:41,028 --> 00:29:43,668 Speaker 5: DeAndre Hopkins is such a weapon in the red zone. 704 00:29:43,868 --> 00:29:46,948 Speaker 5: I would have to think that in the NFC, particularly 705 00:29:46,988 --> 00:29:48,708 Speaker 5: with that thing being so wide open. 706 00:29:49,108 --> 00:29:50,388 Speaker 2: One of those teams get saying, you know what. 707 00:29:50,388 --> 00:29:54,748 Speaker 6: Screwing team. Yeah, Detroit Lions for them. 708 00:29:54,668 --> 00:29:55,948 Speaker 2: Especially with Jamison Williams. 709 00:29:56,108 --> 00:29:58,108 Speaker 1: Yeah, Gamble was talking about recently said I like the 710 00:29:58,108 --> 00:29:59,308 Speaker 1: guys we have, but he was being. 711 00:29:59,228 --> 00:30:02,068 Speaker 6: A little coy. Yeah, I mean I remember Bill Belichick. 712 00:30:02,068 --> 00:30:04,188 Speaker 6: That was his answer. You ever asked about somebody that 713 00:30:04,428 --> 00:30:06,308 Speaker 6: wasn't on a team, I'm worried about the guys on 714 00:30:06,308 --> 00:30:07,748 Speaker 6: our roster. I'm not concerned about. 715 00:30:07,548 --> 00:30:08,148 Speaker 2: He's a free agent. 716 00:30:08,228 --> 00:30:10,388 Speaker 6: He's not even But that was the point, Like so 717 00:30:10,468 --> 00:30:12,068 Speaker 6: Dan Campbells saying, I was just like, he's not in 718 00:30:12,068 --> 00:30:13,348 Speaker 6: the locker room right now, so I don't need to 719 00:30:13,468 --> 00:30:15,388 Speaker 6: have a discussion about him. But you look at him 720 00:30:15,388 --> 00:30:18,868 Speaker 6: possibly in Detroit a team younger receivers, Jameson Williams obviously 721 00:30:18,908 --> 00:30:21,148 Speaker 6: has a sixty game suspension, a mon Rod and the 722 00:30:21,188 --> 00:30:24,028 Speaker 6: slot Jared Goff coming back as quarterback. You added some 723 00:30:24,148 --> 00:30:25,908 Speaker 6: rookies in the running back, Like, you get a guy 724 00:30:25,988 --> 00:30:28,148 Speaker 6: like him out there one on one third down, I 725 00:30:28,148 --> 00:30:29,868 Speaker 6: can get him the rock I think he would fit 726 00:30:29,908 --> 00:30:30,548 Speaker 6: in Detroit too. 727 00:30:30,868 --> 00:30:34,588 Speaker 5: Things like Detroit young team and they're building this culture. 728 00:30:34,668 --> 00:30:37,468 Speaker 5: You bring in a thirty one year old thirty one 729 00:30:37,788 --> 00:30:40,468 Speaker 5: not twenty eight, thirty one year old veteran. You're like, 730 00:30:40,868 --> 00:30:42,988 Speaker 5: here's this young team of kids who haven't won yet. 731 00:30:43,228 --> 00:30:44,748 Speaker 5: We're gonna PLoP you in there.
