I'm still floating feet barely touching 12 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: the ground. Look at Sam Darnold, Kenneth Walker, and Disneyland, 13 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,200 Speaker 1: the happiest place on Earth, the happiest people on Earth. 14 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: It is great to have you in. You know, a 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: lot of people think, oh, there's football season in America 16 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: and then waiting for football season. I don't buy it. Fascinating 17 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: story happen in the NBA and college basketball. But I 18 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: want to start about something because yesterday I'm kind of, 19 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, perusing the internet all day. I took a 20 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: chill day. It's a big weekend and I'm seeing a 21 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: lot of this. Sam Donald didn't do anything in that 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and you are right, he did not throw 23 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: a pick. He did not look nervous, He did not 24 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: get rattled, he did not have a fumble, and he 25 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 1: did not take multiple sacks. You're right, I'm wrong. He 26 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: didn't do anything. For the record, the last eight Super 27 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: Bowl winning quarterbacks only one through for over three hundred yards. Mahomes. 28 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: I thought Kyle Shanahan nailed it on the pregame show. 29 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: When you're as good as Seattle is, you play by 30 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: different rules. 31 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, Sam's a stud, and you know, us having him 32 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 4: for a year, I think we get a little too 33 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 4: much credit for what we did. 34 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: We didn't do anything for him. 35 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 4: We just gave him a platform to where we could 36 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 4: take the pressure off him for a year. And I 37 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 4: think him watching that, Sam's always let it rips. But 38 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 4: when you let it rip all the time and you're 39 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 4: always trying to win the game, a lot of. 40 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: Times, you keep both teams in the game. And I 41 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: think that's really what's changed with him. He picks and 42 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: chooses better. 43 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 4: He's got a really good team, and when you have 44 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 4: a really good team, you don't always have to try 45 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 4: to win it. 46 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: That's right. Sam Darnold in the playoffs did not have 47 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: a turnover for a month. Seven hundred yards, five tds, 48 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: no picks and scrambled. That is exceptional quarterback play. Do 49 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: you know the two Super Bowls were Brady threw for 50 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: the most yards. He lost one and fell behind twenty 51 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: eight to three in the other and needed the greatest, 52 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: most miraculous catch of his career Julian Edelman in Atlanta 53 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: to win that one. Oh, let me remind you that 54 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: Drake may set an NFL Super Bowl quarterback record this 55 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: past Sunday. Drake may threw for more yards than any 56 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: quarterback in a single quarter in NFL history. Did you 57 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: know that? Two hundred and thirty five in the fourth? 58 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: Just think he played well. Sam Donald didn't get in 59 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: the way. And let's be totally honest. Why you have 60 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: this opinion? Men are very proud animals. We are very proud. 61 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: You thought Sam Donald was a bust. You were proved wrong, 62 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: and you don't want to admit it publicly. That's why 63 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: everybody always talks about you. Ever go into the internet. Rigged? Rigged? 64 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: Now you lost a bet, your team lost. If the 65 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: NFL is rigged, they're doing a terrible job. Mahomes, Joe Burrow, 66 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Matt Stafford, we're not in the 67 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, Sam Donald and Drake maywhere the NFL is 68 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: doing a horrible job of rigging it. So football is 69 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: the ultimate complimentary sport, and when you have a stacked roster, 70 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: not having a turnover for a month is exceptional. Quarterback 71 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: play audibling into stuff that works and out of trouble. 72 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: So you can tell me Donald didn't do anything, and 73 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: I will push back by your right. No fumbles, not 74 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: multiple sacks, never rattled, no interceptions, didn't do any of 75 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: those things. Drake made it all of them. So you 76 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: know I like Donald, and you also know I like analytics. 77 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: But I think this is something that I'm not sure 78 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: people realize this. For years on this show, I've talked 79 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: about analytics not analytics. Football is much closer to UFC 80 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: than it is a math class. It has a regulated 81 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: level of violence and sometimes tough wins, tougher wins, intimidation wins. 82 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: Analytics don't prove any of it. So Seattle does not 83 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: go for it on fourth downs. In fact, the three 84 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: teams that went forward in the NFL the fewest times 85 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: on fourth down, the Seahawks won the Super Bowl. If 86 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,679 Speaker 1: Bonix doesn't get hurt, Denver's probably in the Super Bowl 87 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: and the Texans. And there was a moment in this game, 88 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: late second quarter, fourth and five for Seattle and they 89 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: chose to punt, and analytics said it's a go either 90 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: way decision. Seahawks led six to nothing. They brought on 91 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: the league's most highly paid punter, any pinned New England 92 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 1: deep analytics said it's a go either way, And as 93 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: I watched it, my takeaways, No, it's not. It's one 94 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: hundred percent punt because New England couldn't move the ball. 95 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: Why would you give them a field position break. Their 96 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: longest drive was twenty eight yards. You don't give struggling 97 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: offenses the break and the life preserver they need. That's 98 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: one hundred percent punt. Secondly, it's not like the Seahawks 99 00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: were dominating on big offensive downs. The Patriots defense got tired, 100 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: but for the first quarter and a half they were excellent. 101 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: I mean, JSN was invisible. Nobody could stop him all year. 102 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 1: Patriots did. And the third thing, Seattle went a month 103 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: with no turnovers and a defense creating points. You punt 104 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: the ball, winning the game, not winning arguments on the 105 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: internet is the key to football. Too many people want 106 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: to go on the internet and sound smart. Do you 107 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: realize the last three Super Bowl champions each kicked four 108 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: field goals in their respective Super Bowls? Take the points 109 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: if you are exceptional anywhere, if you have a significantly 110 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: better defense. The Chiefs from twenty twenty two to twenty 111 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: twenty four had an exceptional defense, Deeve Spagnola exceptional defense. 112 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: They won two Super Bowls. They appeared in three Super Bowls. 113 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: Do you know where they were on going foard and 114 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: fourth down second fust? In the league? You know who 115 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: went for it a lot, the Jets and the Titans. 116 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: The Dodgers aren't winning the World Series because of analytics. 117 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: They've got more money and a smarter GM, and they 118 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: buy better players. Everybody talks about analytics in the NBA. 119 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City is the dominant team in the sport. They're 120 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: middle of the pack. Oklahoma City is built on defense 121 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: and one exceptional score and a great GM and coach. 122 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: They're not winning with three pointers. Seattle is so extraordinarily 123 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: uniquely coached and deep special teams defense. They don't play 124 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: by the same rules everybody does. You don't go for 125 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: it on fourth and five. That's not a go either 126 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: way call. That's a pin Drake made deep. They can't 127 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: put first downs together. Pin him deep. Take the points. 128 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: Nine to nothing felt like twenty four nothing six nothing 129 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: felt like fourteen nothing like. Football is much closer to 130 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: UFC than math class. Sometimes, intimidation tough getting into the 131 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: psyche or the head of your opponents. Drake May is 132 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: an accurate thrower. You watched him in that game. He 133 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: was intimidated. He didn't get he didn't want to get hit. 134 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: Drake May was rattled, he was nervous, he was intimidated. 135 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: That doesn't show up in analytics. Pin him deep. Here's 136 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold on not carrying the load and field goals 137 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: in the Super. 138 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 5: Bowl because of the guys in the locker room, because 139 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 5: of our coaching staff working their butts off every single day, 140 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 5: Like you know, that's why we're all here. 141 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: You know. 142 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 5: Offense again, didn't I feel like we didn't. 143 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: Play as good as we could have. I certainly didn't 144 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: play as good as I could have. 145 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 5: But our defense at her back, our special teams out 146 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 5: are back, and we got the win. 147 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: So I'm not anti NA analytics, and not everybody can 148 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: play by Seattle or Denver's rules. But all year long, 149 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: Denver was a remarkable fourth quarter team. And I think 150 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: Sean Payton's feeling was, our defense is so exceptional. We're 151 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: gonna take the points. We're gonna end drives, We're gonna punt, 152 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: We're not gonna take big risks. I will open up 153 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: the playbook in the fourth quarter. I will take more risks. 154 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: Some do our demise in the fourth quarter. But there 155 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: are teams in this league this year, like Denver and 156 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: Houston and Seattle going for it makes no sense. Kansas 157 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: City for a three year period with Spags defense, they 158 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: never went oh Andy Reid Mahomes. They rarely went for it. 159 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 3: Then go for it. 160 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: Why, I know everybody loves math. Okay, a lot of 161 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: times in this sport, momentum is huge, and Seattle's defense 162 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: was in dre May and Josh McDaniel's head. Don't let 163 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: him off the hook, Jmac last night, a refreshing Lebron 164 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 1: James coming out and admitting we're not very good. Did 165 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: you hear that? I did hear that. 166 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, they played great against ok See, fell down the 167 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 6: stretch struggle SGA. 168 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 3: Neither did Luca. 169 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 6: You know Austin Reeves coming off the bench. 170 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: Still on a minute, wouldn't it be nice to watch 171 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: an NBA game and the stars play? 172 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 3: I mean, listen, man, it's a long season, eighty two games. 173 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: What do you watch? Funny because I watched the Super 174 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: Bowl and all the starters were playing and they tackle 175 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: each other. 176 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 6: I mean, it's a four month season. He played seventeen 177 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 6: games versus eighty two. Come on, wait, what are you 178 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 6: bagging on the NBA for it? 179 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: Come on, love to see the stars occasionally?

Five up, 206 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: five downs? This I okay, So five teams and it's 207 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 1: not just going to be record. You are going to 208 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: feel differently about these teams positively next year and then 209 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: five teams. And some of the teams that I have 210 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: going down are are teams that will be good, but 211 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: I don't think they'll be as special. So we're gonna 212 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 1: play five up, five down. Let's start glass half full. 213 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: So why I am at my core? First of all, 214 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: five up? The New York Giant is the easiest pick 215 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: on the board. I like their roster, top ten OER line, 216 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: top ten D line, I think eleven according to PFF. 217 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: They were one in seven in one score games. Jackson 218 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: Dart now gets an elite coach and a culture center. 219 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: They have the numb number five overall pick. They can 220 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: trade down and accumulate more picks. Their lines are good enough. 221 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: They got to get a right tackle, a tight end, 222 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: probably another weapon scataboo. Jackson Dart four and thirteen Giants 223 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: are my pick to double their win total. They'll look 224 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: different by mid September. The Commanders same division. They get 225 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: Jayden Daniels back. They were five and twelve. I don't 226 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: know if they're going to win ten games, but they 227 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: have a lot of cap space. They're the oldest team 228 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL. The Commanders are going to be a 229 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: different looking team again. Seven to one score games, they 230 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:44,239 Speaker 1: won only two. Dan Quinn is solid, if not exceptional 231 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: cap space, lost a lot of close games. They get 232 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: their quarterback back. Just don't forget how gifted he was 233 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: as a rookie. The third team is the Detroit Lions. 234 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: At nine to eight, they're going to get back into 235 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: the twelve win territory. I love. I was surprised they 236 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: didn't get more positive feedback the higher of Arizona's offensive coordinator, 237 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: Drew Petsing. Didn't anybody else watch Arizona this year and go, 238 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: how the hell are they scoring all these points? With 239 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett, he's clever. Maybe not Ben Johnson, but their 240 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: stars are locked up. Goff is still in his prime, 241 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: Amaran Saint Brown, Pinasoul Hutchison gibbson a rookie deal. Were 242 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: not a very good team in close games. Dan Campbell 243 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: had to take over the offense. This is still an 244 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: elite front office that drafts well and acquires well. They're 245 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: gonna get their mojo back. They struggle at OC nine 246 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: and eight to probably an eleven or a twelve win team. 247 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: The Chargers now they were eleven and six and they 248 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: may only go twelve and five. They will feel different. 249 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel probably the best coordinator higher in the sport. 250 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: They get both offensive tackles back and both are way 251 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: above average. Third most cap space. They have drafted well 252 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: with Jim Harbaugh. Again, they have been a defensive first 253 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: team that survives offensively that we're not considering a super 254 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: Bowl team. Next year, there'll be an offensive led team 255 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: that won't be as good defensively, but you will feel 256 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: very early in the season, oh, this team could win 257 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Whether they do or not, they'll have 258 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: a totally different feel and finally, an easy one. The 259 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs two years ago, they won every close game. 260 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: Last year they lost every close game one to nine. 261 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: You know you're going to get in the middle somewhere 262 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: around there. Also, their offensive tackle position, when Josh Simmons 263 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: wasn't playing and he's really talented, was a mess. He's back, 264 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: Mahomes is healthy. Travis kelce I argued for him to 265 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: return one more year. Listen, you just have to be 266 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: honest about it. When you're drafting at the bottom of 267 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: rounds really hard. Gms will tell you after about the 268 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: eighteenth pick, you wish you could just have more second 269 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: and third round picks. They're going to be fine, they're 270 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: going to improve. Six and eleven. My guess becomes eleven 271 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: and six. Here's five down Houston, twelve and five. Can 272 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: they have dominated their division the last two years? Ten 273 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: and two. That's not happening again. That's not happening again. 274 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: Tennessee is going to be much better. Jacksonville is really good. 275 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: They've also been five to nine the last couple of 276 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: years against teams that make the playoffs. I love CJ. Stroud. 277 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: I think he throws the prettiest ball. On some Sundays 278 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: in the league. He has regressed to an eighty nine 279 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: passer rating guy who turns the ball over way too much. 280 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: They will be good as long as Demiko Ryans is 281 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: the coach. But I don't think they feel the same. 282 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: I don't think offensively they've got the right rhythm. Twelve 283 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: and five to me becomes like what nine to eight, 284 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: ten and ten and seven? But you never feel like 285 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: they're a super Bowl team. I would say the Patriots. Okay, 286 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: fourteen and three is not happening. AFC is going to 287 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: be much better. The Chiefs will be better, the Charges 288 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: will be better. Cincinnati, Baltimore, Jacksonville's only getting better, and 289 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: Liam Cohen's second year, they're not going fourteen and three. 290 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 1: My guests, they're closer than ten eleven wins. Also, it's 291 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: the Dan Reno thing. They get to solve their offensive line. 292 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: Dan Marino with Don Schuel never got back to a 293 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 1: super Bowl. It was a really bad year. I mean 294 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: they got Let's be honest, if Bonnicks plays, they probably 295 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: don't make the Super Bowl. They were completely overwhelmed by Seattle. 296 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: It wasn't necessarily close. I love Rabel, Drake May's good, 297 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: but you start looking at the AFC, there's just too 298 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: many good quarterbacks. There's too many good coaches, there's too 299 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: many good coordinators. They take a step back. Forty nine 300 00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 1: ers who I love? Twelve and five George Kittle probably 301 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: not available till mid season. Robert Sala had an unbelievable 302 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: year as defensive coordinator. Bosa aging getting hurt more often. 303 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: What are they gonna do at receiver? Brandon neu Ayuk's gone? 304 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: Juwan Jennings is a free agent. What are they gonna do? 305 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey comes off a four hundred and fifty touch 306 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: season and he is now thirty. So I again, they 307 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: did it with smoking mirrors last year. They'll be fine. 308 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: I don't think they're at twelve and five team Cowboys 309 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: seven nine to one. I think they unravel. They're a mess. 310 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: How Jerry Jones a business man, how can you be 311 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: this big of a mess. They're twenty nine million over 312 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: the cap they want to pay George Pickens. That's gonna 313 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: cost you twenty nine million dollars. Worst defense in the NFL. 314 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: They're spending an NFL high seventy million on their interior 315 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: defensive line and an NFL low six million on their 316 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: edge rushers. How are they this big of a mess? 317 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: Stop trying to get discounts. Hire a real GM, pay 318 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: big money for a coach. Seven nine to one, they're 319 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 1: going down. And finally Philadelphia had eleven and six. How 320 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: many coordinator changes can you make? You just had a 321 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 1: top offensive line coach say, I'm out. You've got some 322 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: older offensive linemen who are getting banged up increasingly and 323 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: may may decide at some point. I'm out. I think 324 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: they've been doing it a little bit, just on Howie 325 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: Roseman's roster. But I don't feel Sirianni's an elite coach. 326 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: I don't care about the record, and I think the 327 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: books in on Jalen Hurts not beloved in the locker room. 328 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: I've got that sourced. I also, I think he struggles 329 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: throwing the ball down the field. I said it yesterday. 330 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: You don't want to give Sam Donald any credit. Donald 331 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: sits in that pocket doesn't turn it over in the 332 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 1: last month and throws the ball right into the heart. 333 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 3: Of the defense. 334 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: I'm sorry on the market, I think gms take Donald 335 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: over Jalen Hurts, So Giants, Commander's Lion, Chargers, Chiefs Up Down, Texans, Patriots, Niners, Cowboys, Eagles. 336 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: I also think Tennessee should be better, but I'm not 337 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: ready to commit just yet. With that, Nick Wright joins 338 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: us Live. First things first, anything jump out to you, 339 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: any big whiff by me? 340 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 3: Well, so I. 341 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 7: Have a question, but first an observation. Overall, I think 342 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 7: it's a great list. 343 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 3: It is. 344 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 7: It did make me smile that all the teams you 345 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 7: have trending up are teams that missed the playoffs or 346 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 7: dealt with massive injury, except for, of course, the eleven 347 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 7: win Chargers. That all we gotta do is move on 348 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 7: from Anthony Lynn and Justin Herbert will show you who 349 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 7: Brandon Stanley is the problem. Darn it, Jim Harbor, that 350 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 7: ain't it. No, it was all Greg Roman's fault. Now 351 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 7: Mike McDaniel will fix it. You are ball, I mean you, 352 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 7: Herbert guys are just something else. Like I'm starting to 353 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 7: think maybe you Greece, Sam Monson's palms, so he voted 354 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 7: for Herbert for MVB. You might be the man behind 355 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 7: the mirror in that I am, But otherwise I it's 356 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 7: a really good collection. 357 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 2: I do. 358 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 7: My question is this because I was surprised. I don't 359 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 7: necessarily anything it's wrong. I was surprised you didn't have 360 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 7: Baltimore or Cincinnati on trending up. 361 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: So tell me. Okay, so Baltimore Lamar wants a new contract. Okay, 362 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but. 363 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:28,360 Speaker 3: Right concern too. 364 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we just saw it with Josh Allen. No 365 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: Pro bowlers on defense. I think even Brett Veach and 366 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. When the quarterback is a big quarterback hit, 367 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: you're not gonna have a running git. You're gonna have 368 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: a hole. And I believe the NFL is not about 369 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: being great everywhere. You can't be terrible anywhere. If you're 370 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 1: terrible at left tackle New England Chiefs this year when 371 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: Simmons is hurt, it's just impossible that the coaching's too good. 372 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,479 Speaker 1: So and by the way, I like New England and 373 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: I like the Texans, but the AFC, let's be fair, had. 374 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 3: A down year. 375 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: It's going to be noticeably healthier and better next year. 376 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 7: Well, and I don't know if you so I think 377 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 7: Patriots right now, and I know we'll talk about the 378 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 7: Super Bowl, but I think the Patriots are probably worse 379 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 7: than a coin flip to get back to the playoffs 380 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 7: next year. And it's not because they were frauds. 381 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 3: It's not. 382 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 7: I like Drake May, I love Rabel, but to go 383 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 7: from literally the softest schedule in the NFL this century 384 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 7: and the second softest in fifty years to next year, 385 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 7: they had their road games Colin They of course have 386 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 7: their divisional road games, which Buffalo is one of them, 387 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 7: and their other road games are Detroit, the Chargers, the Chiefs, Chicago, Seattle, 388 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 7: and Jacksonville. So they play six non divisional road games, 389 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 7: four against playoff teams and the two non playoff teams 390 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 7: are the Lines and the Chiefs. 391 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,439 Speaker 3: So like that that schedule. 392 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 7: Snap back effect on it, and so I think the Patriots, 393 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 7: while they could be in the mix for years to come, 394 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 7: could have a reality check next season. 395 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays 396 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: and noone Easter non a Empacific. 397 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 1: What do we do with Sam Donald? Now? Where do 398 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: we classices, tip work and go to the parade, like, 399 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what you do. I said yesterday, y'all 400 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: forced me to love brock Purty. If Pretty and Donald 401 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: are on the market, everybody's taken. Every GM's taking Donald, Bigger, stronger, 402 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: better arm didn't have a turnover for a month against 403 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: the NFC playoffs and the Patriots. What do we do 404 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: with Sam? Now, I'll let you take it. Because people 405 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: don't think I'm objective on that. 406 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 7: Well, listen, you don't. This is I mean, people can 407 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 7: say you're not objective. This is the one. I shouldn't 408 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 7: say the one, but this is one thing that you 409 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 7: can say everyone was wrong but me. Colin Cowhard, like 410 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 7: you get to take a victory lap on this, buddy. 411 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 7: You never you never relented in believing this was possible, 412 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,719 Speaker 7: and no one else thought it was possible. So I 413 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 7: will I give you full credit on that because you 414 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 7: deserve it. 415 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 3: Now. 416 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 7: Where he falls in the quarterback hierarchy is this Yesterday 417 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 7: I thought you did. You did an interesting thing about 418 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 7: just comparing him within the NFC, because the AFC is 419 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 7: kind of stacked with the quarterbacks and the NFC is 420 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 7: stacked with the great teams. Exactly right, That's just how 421 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 7: it has fallen. 422 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 3: So Stafford's better than him. 423 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 7: I understand they wont Stafford's better than him, but Stafford's old. 424 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 7: So if you were to say, if the question is, hey, 425 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 7: NFC quarterbacks you want for the next three to five years, 426 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 7: Stafford's out of it. And then it because like, would 427 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 7: I rather have Donald or Hurts? I would rather have Donald. 428 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 7: Would I rather have Donald or Purty? I would rather 429 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 7: have Donald? Dak is a question Dak. I think Dak 430 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 7: has shown more, but Dak has never had anything close 431 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 7: to the NFC Championship game. Donald just had and he's older. 432 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 7: So then it becomes Donald against the younger guys, Donald 433 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,239 Speaker 7: or Golf. That's a coin flip to me. And then 434 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 7: the younger guys Caleb, Jayden, Jordan Love who's about his 435 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 7: age but feels youngs he didn't play much like. So 436 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 7: those are all debates. It's remarkable that those are debates, 437 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 7: But you hit on I think the most important point. 438 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 7: He led the league in turnovers and then in Week 439 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 7: eighteen with the one set on the line, didn't turn 440 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 7: it over. First playoff game, didn't turn it over, going 441 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 7: bar for bar with Matt Stafford in the NFC Championship Game, 442 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 7: which if that was the real Super Bowl. 443 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 3: He was the MVP of that game. 444 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 7: And then he did what Drake May wasn't able to 445 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 7: do in the Super Bowl avoid the disaster. And he 446 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 7: had three or four times in the Super Bowl, Colin 447 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 7: where I was like, oh, he's gonna get sacked, and 448 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 7: he escaped it just enough to get the ball off, 449 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 7: which is all that team needed. It felt to me, Colin, 450 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 7: like Mike Rabel's game plan was Sam Donald's gonna give 451 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 7: it to us. We just have to avoid disaster. The 452 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,479 Speaker 7: concerto on offense, Donald will give it to us. The 453 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 7: very first throw of the game. I thought he gave 454 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 7: it to him. The very first throw I thought was 455 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 7: pig six and I was like, oh no, But it 456 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 7: got through and he never made a mistake like a 457 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 7: big mistake the rest of the way. 458 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. We had a resurgence of defensive coaches, 459 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 1: and I do think it's funny. Liam Cohen got more 460 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: votes for Coach of the Year than Mike McDonald because 461 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: we can see offense Shanahan's motion, We can see Liam 462 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: Cohen's elevation of Trevor Lawrence, and with Liam was on 463 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: last week, brilliant guy. We can see mcveigh's offense, you 464 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: can't really see what a defensive coach does. You're like, well, 465 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: you know they draft well. And RG three was on 466 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: the show and yesterday and talked about that. Is that 467 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: we tend I mean, there's Mike McDaniel in Miami for 468 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 1: two years. Was the talk of the league because it 469 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 1: was sure, oh my god, it's clever. Mike McDonald's like, well, 470 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 1: I mean he's I mean, he's not McVeigh or shanahan, 471 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 1: but he's a heck of a coach. And I wonder 472 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:39,719 Speaker 1: if we have take out Andy Reid, take out Andy Reid, 473 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: And you said, all these great young coaches, has mcvaan 474 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: Shanahan have they met their equal in Seattle? 475 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 7: Well, so that's I think it's a great question because 476 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 7: the Mike McDonald, what his defenses have done since he's 477 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 7: been with Seattle eleven games against young quarterbacks, Those young 478 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 7: quarterbacks are one in ten, averaging less than sixteen points 479 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 7: a game. If you take his time, his two years 480 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 7: in Baltimore and then to Seattle where he's running defenses 481 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 7: quarterbacks in their first game first time seeing his defense, 482 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 7: ten and thirty three, again averaging less than sixteen points 483 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 7: per game. I think there are a couple things that 484 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 7: are working against Mike McDonald from like a PR perspective. 485 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 7: One is what you're alluding to. Offense seem like the 486 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 7: nerds who cover football, of which I'm kind of one, 487 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 7: lean offense, the analytics, lean offense. 488 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: Psyche candy. 489 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 7: It's like, right, a guy like you mentioned McVeigh and 490 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 7: Shanahan all go a level lower. Up until fifteen days ago, 491 00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 7: Kevin O'Connell was considered far above Mike mcdaie McDonald on 492 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 7: the coaching hierarchy because he's the quarterback whisperer guy, Kevin O'Connell. Well, 493 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 7: Kevin O'Connell had a team that had Sam Darnold last 494 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 7: year and they got clocked in their first playoff game. 495 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 7: They didn't build it out like this, So I think 496 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 7: that has worked against him. And the other thing that 497 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 7: I think honestly has worked against him is East Coast 498 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 7: versus West coast publicity bias. 499 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: Like I think if he were the coach of. 500 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 7: Washington and he would have more the Washington Commanders rather 501 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 7: than Washington State. 502 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 3: I just think the. 503 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 7: Fact that Seattle plays a lot of those four h 504 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 7: five Eastern games. They're not like a front of the 505 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 7: Marquis team. 506 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 3: He rode a little more. 507 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 7: In anonymity as opposed to Brabel, who obviously was a 508 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 7: celebrity player. You know, a famous player, I should say. 509 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 7: But the fact that he's on the East Coast with 510 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 7: the Patriots while McDonald's on the West coast with the 511 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 7: with the Seahawks. I mean, I think Rabel's a great coach, 512 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 7: but the level of the pr machine for one versus 513 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 7: the other going into the Super Bowl was a little 514 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 7: too much. Like I had to read three articles Colin. 515 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 7: They're like, guess what Rabel did the practice before the 516 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 7: Super Bowl. You're not gonna believe it. Middle of practice, 517 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 7: he called his players off the field for an extended 518 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 7: halftime and even played bad Bunny on the speakers. 519 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 3: It's innovation. 520 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 7: We've never seen him like, guys, he didn't invent practicing 521 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 7: for the long halftime. But Brabel, who's an excellent coach 522 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 7: in Boston, famous guy, got a lot a lot of 523 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 7: cred leading up to the Super Bowl. McDonald not so much. 524 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: The there's so much here the uh I want to 525 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: ask this laker question because we've got a lot of football, 526 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: and we've got I see the clock. So the NBA 527 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,239 Speaker 1: makes it hard to trade. The NFL does not, and 528 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: because of that, like Darren Peterson plays for Kansas. Draft him. 529 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't care that he's not available much. 530 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: You draft him. He's a three and D player. It's 531 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: a three and D league. I don't care that he 532 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: misses games. He was sick, people get sick, he has cramps. 533 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: He looks like Kobe. Draft him. I don't care. Christian 534 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: McCaffrey missed a Sun Bowl. People freaked out. It was 535 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: one of the best college backs I've ever seen. Draft 536 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. So we were saying this with the Lakers. 537 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: I was reading the LA Times this week, as I'm 538 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: prone to do. I love the newspaper industry. 539 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 7: Of course, you even pantomimed you were reading, not on 540 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 7: your phone, you the all the broadsheets you were on. 541 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 7: You're in Chicago on the l train reading a physical 542 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 7: Los Angeles Times, bumping into people. 543 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 2: I get it. 544 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: I love it. 545 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:38,479 Speaker 3: You painted the picture. 546 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: And the Laker fans in the letters to the editor, 547 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: they all know the problem. Like every letter was, We're 548 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: atrocious defensively we're all offensive guys. And I said, Laker 549 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: fans know the problem. I don't think they know the 550 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: wrecking ball they need. I said, I think JJ Reddick's 551 00:31:55,840 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 1: good and Luca is excellent. I would move every buddy Okac, Detroit, 552 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: San Antonio elite defense is three best teams in the league. 553 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: You're pretty Lebron came out last night and to his credit, said, 554 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: the difference is they can play hard for forty eight minutes. 555 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: We can't. We can't do that. When you look at 556 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: the Lakers and Lebron, how do you part gracefully, Browny Lebron? 557 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: How do you make that whole thing work so it's gracious? 558 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: You bring the wrecking ball in? Is they are? This 559 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: gonna be one of the most clunky, awful That's no 560 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: way to treat a star. Exit. 561 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 7: No, I don't think that'll be it, because Lebron's finished 562 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 7: his contracts up after this year, will be a free agent, 563 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 7: and I think he'll leave. Lebron has finished every contract 564 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,239 Speaker 7: he's ever had, He's honored every contract he's ever at, 565 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 7: He's never been traded, never demanded a trade, and I 566 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 7: think he'll finish his time with the Lakers. 567 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 3: But I think the Lakers story is. 568 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 7: Of this last half decade is that of massive missed 569 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 7: opportunity because the Lakers now this deadline. They made a 570 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 7: marginal move trading for Luke Canard, but from the championship 571 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 7: until the Luca trade, they just stood pat every year 572 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 7: at the deadline. 573 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 3: They never tried. They always were more worried. 574 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 7: About max cap space down the road, when this is 575 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 7: no longer calling a max cap space league because no 576 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 7: great players hit free agency. Great players used to if 577 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 7: they wanted to change teams, let their contracts expire. Now 578 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 7: they're like team that I don't want to be on. 579 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 7: Can I have that extension? 580 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 5: Oh? 581 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 7: We signed it. I'd like to be traded please. So 582 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 7: max cap space is not that useful because what is 583 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 7: useful is either trade assets or going for it when 584 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 7: you have great players. 585 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,959 Speaker 3: And I think the Warriors. 586 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 7: Made the mistake of this two timeline nonsense and threw 587 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 7: away the last few years of Steph's prime. And I 588 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 7: think the Lakers threw away the last couple years previously 589 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 7: when Lebron was still a top. 590 00:33:58,320 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 3: Three player in the league. 591 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 7: Then they got Luca and they still didn't accelerate. They're like, no, 592 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 7: we're gonna wait. We're gonna wait. Man, there is a 593 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 7: very real chance that the best teammate Luka Doncic ever 594 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 7: has in his Lakers career is Lebron James last year, 595 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 7: and the second best one might be Austin. 596 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 3: Reeves this year. 597 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 7: To not try to fix what is obviously a fatal 598 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 7: flaw of the roster, which is we have no defenders, 599 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 7: is baffling. And for them to be and it's not 600 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 7: even about Lebron. They are in back to back years 601 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 7: Colin punting on a chance to win the title with 602 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 7: prime Luka Doncic. You have prime Luka Doncic, and you're like, 603 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 7: this year is not the time. And honestly, if we 604 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 7: don't pull off a Jannis heist, next year's probably not 605 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 7: the time either. 606 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 3: It's baffling. 607 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 7: Hopefully the Dodgers folks that are taking it over have 608 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 7: a more clicking or ticking time clock than Blinka's had. 609 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 7: But yeah, they're not a championship level team because they can't. 610 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 7: They got to score one thirty five to win against 611 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 7: good teams. You're not gonna win three rounds that way, 612 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 7: let alone four. 613 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: All Right, buddy, you did a great job yesterday. You're 614 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 1: gonna have good shows all week and you can thanks, 615 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 1: and we'll get to the Chiefs next week. I didn't 616 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: want to burden you with that one. I wanted a 617 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: Lakers take Listen. 618 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 7: I thought it was it's nice for the whole NFL 619 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 7: to see how the Chiefs have been carrying the AFC 620 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 7: this decade. You see these Super Bowls when the Chiefs 621 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 7: aren't in them. You see these AFC playoffs when the 622 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,879 Speaker 7: Chiefs aren't in them. A lot of Stidhammacklers, Stidham Drake 623 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 7: mate ten seven. You know, I mean, everybody missed Kansas 624 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 7: City a little bit. It's fine year off, be back 625 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 7: next year, see assume buddy. 626 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: All right, Nick, right, first things first, Yeah, the it 627 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: was a it was a clunky AFC playoffs. The nfcs 628 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: were unbelievable. I was talking to my buddy in New York, 629 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: who is a Seahawk devoted Seahawk fan, and I'm like, 630 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:07,239 Speaker 1: six most cap space, best defense, young coach Darnold, team 631 00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: friendly deal. They've got the first, second and third round picks. 632 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: They have about two to three needs the l answer 633 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 1: all those I'm not saying. I'm just saying, Seattle is 634 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: going to be really good next year. In the year 635 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 1: after then, you don't know. You can't project three years 636 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 1: out in pro football. You can project twenty four months. 637 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:26,479 Speaker 1: That's fair. 638 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 6: But if they lose one of two Walker or Shaheed, 639 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 6: and what if they lose two of two, they lose 640 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 6: both those. 641 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: Guys Shahez, you can lose. I mean, the punt. 642 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 6: Return against the Rams essentially saved their season, down sixteen 643 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 6: with eight minutes left in the game. 644 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: Walker, the shickoff returning Walker is very very important. 645 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 6: Charbonat will be back. But also I think this Koubiak 646 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 6: lost Colin. I don't want to draw a direct parallel 647 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 6: to what happened with Jared Goff and Ben Johnson, but 648 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 6: we saw when you lose your offensive coordinator that offense 649 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 6: sagged into addicted that. 650 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,959 Speaker 1: Okay, Goff was still fine. The problem you went from 651 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: the best offensive coordinator and it dropped down to in 652 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 1: house guy. So Clint Kubiak, I don't think it's Ben Johnson. 653 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: I think he's good. So you're not that high. And 654 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: my my my gut is John Snyder and Mike McDaniel, 655 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: Mike mc they don't choose guy down the home McDonald's 656 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: now they May, they May. 657 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 5: They're Saturday. 658 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,439 Speaker 1: They're going to go in house for that. I don't 659 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: love that. But my take is Ben Johnson was the 660 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 1: best OC for three years.
