WEBVTT - NFL Schedule Release Reaction 0:00:00.880 --> 0:00:06.680 And now move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 0:00:07.040 --> 0:00:09.240 What's up about the world. It has moved the sticks. 0:00:09.280 --> 0:00:10.040 I am Bucket Brooks. 0:00:10.039 --> 0:00:13.080 I'm joined here by my man Rhett Lewis and Rhett 0:00:13.119 --> 0:00:16.000 we are going to talk all things ball as we 0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:18.159 were coming off the heels of the schedule release and 0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:21.160 all of that. But before we get to that, like, HTT, 0:00:22.000 --> 0:00:23.480 I kind of want to talk about your favorite guy 0:00:23.520 --> 0:00:25.400 because I felt like your favorite play in the draft 0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:29.240 was Tyler Shutt from the New Orleans Saints. And since 0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:32.720 the last time we talked about the New Orleans Saints, 0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:37.120 their quarterback one, they QB one retired and so we'll 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:39.239 talk about it. It's time for the Hot or Not 0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:42.200 brought to you Bob with Sabi Hot Cloud Storage and HT. 0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:43.840 What we're gonna talk about is we're gonna talk about 0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:47.080 Tyler Shutt, his chances of starting, and what's some of 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:49.040 the other rookie quarterbacks and looking, let's start with your 0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:49.800 man in New Orleans. 0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:51.360 Yeah, what are your thoughts? 0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:55.080 Yeah, Look, I think you know, just overall, I think 0:00:55.120 --> 0:00:58.200 when they made this selection, like we had already kind 0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:00.680 of we'd already kind of known that they Derek Carr 0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:04.600 could miss this season, retirement was a possibility. So like 0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:06.920 I looked at that, like, they get him fortieth overall 0:01:07.440 --> 0:01:09.880 third quarterback off the board right there, you know, top 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:11.240 half of the second round. I'm like, this is your 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:16.000 Week one starter right here. Yeah, for the dates. That's 0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:17.840 what it felt like to me at the time. I mean, 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.240 this is not a twenty one year old quarterback with 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:22.800 twelve starts, you know under his belt. This is a 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:24.920 twenty five year old. It's been in college football for 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:28.160 seven years. He's been through five different offenses, have seen 0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:31.119 pretty much everything that college football has to offer, both 0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.920 offensively and defensively. Like if there was a dude in 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:38.039 this class that's ready to start, it's him now ready 0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:41.240 to start, and you know, being productive, I think are 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:43.959 two different things. Like he still has all the talent too, right, 0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:49.360 you know, big arm, big frame, athletic. He's got a 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.640 really mature head on his shoulders too. So when I 0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:54.840 see this, you know for the Saints, and I see 0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:57.320 you know that their first game is going to be 0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.800 at home against the Arizona Cardinals week once, September seventh, 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:02.440 at a one o'clock game on CBS. 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.720 Like that to me, is Tyler Shuck's debut Like that. 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.480 Is like, I just don't see a world And look, 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.359 we saw the Spencer Ratler experience last year. At times, 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:15.440 maybe he gets a little bit better, you know, a 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:18.080 full year under his belt, new system with Kellen Moore. 0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:20.480 But I don't look at this and see any other 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:23.679 scenario other than Tyler Shucks starting for the Saints and 0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:26.520 trying to beat the Kyler Murray led Arizona Cardinals. 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:30.560 Yeah, you know, it's funny, Like there are a few things. 0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:33.240 Typically when you're in the front office and you're about 0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:35.160 to make this pick and you had a quarterback that 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:39.080 is on demand or quarterback that's contemplating retirement, you begin 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:41.160 to make plans that he's not going to be around. 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:44.919 I believe that the Saints one knew that Derek Carr 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:47.480 likely was not going to be around next year, and 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:49.920 the pick that they made with Tyler ship was intentional. 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:52.520 It was done with the intent of he is going 0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:54.760 to be the starting quarterback and we're going to put 0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:58.320 him into quarterback room with Jay Hayner and Spencer Ratley, 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:02.520 but we expect him to win the competition, and look, 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:04.880 I think they're scripted out and they will make it 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:08.720 appear to be fair where everyone will get equal opportunity. 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:09.799 But in my. 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.840 Mind, they are He's on the inside track to be 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:17.560 the start quarterback when they kick off, because we've already 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.920 seen the other guys play, even though they played not 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.480 for killing more, we've seen them start games for the Saints, 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.239 and yet a coaching staff is changed, but the front 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:30.320 office hasn't, and they elected to take a quarterback. To me, 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:32.280 it means that Tylers Shutt is the guy to expect 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:33.639 to be the quarterback when they kick it off. 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.640 So look, let's look at this thing from the Saints' 0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:39.720 schedule perspective here right now that that is fresh and 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:42.760 hot off the presses after the NFL Network schedule release 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:47.080 show last night. Cardinals are the opener. They get another 0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:49.360 home game in week two against the forty nine ers. 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.840 That'll be a brand new look defense, right, a lot 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:53.920 of new names on that. 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:54.120 Now. 0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:56.520 Sure there's still some of the stalwarts, right, You still 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.119 got Fred Warner, still got Nick Bosa. But they went 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:03.600 heavy rookies, excuse me, heavy in the draft on defense, 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:05.600 so we'll see you could see a lot of those guys. 0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:08.360 So you get two home games to start, that feels 0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:10.200 pretty good. And then you've got two big road trips 0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:13.600 up to see the twelves in Seattle to take on 0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:17.200 the Seahawks and Mike McDonald's pretty advanced and difficult to 0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:19.440 deal with type of defense. And then you go up 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:22.000 and you deal with the Buffalo Bills right in Buffalo. 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:24.840 So at Seattle in Buffalo, two of the toughest places 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.080 to play in the league are your first two road 0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:30.320 environments before you come back home for another two against 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:33.040 the Giants and the Patriots, which maybe feels like a 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:35.480 little bit of a reset, and not to say a breather, 0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:39.120 but a breath right at that point after really, I 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:41.679 mean like, look, you've got the Cardinals and Niners. Cardinals 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.400 are on are trending upwards. You got those teams are 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:46.600 going to be battling, you know, to deal with the 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:49.880 Rams in the NFC West, same with the Seahawks. So 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:51.839 back to back to back out of the NFC West, 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:53.640 and then you go to the Buffalo Bills or a 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:56.400 Super Bowl contender like there is. This is not We're 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:58.680 not easing into this thing by any means for shucking 0:04:58.720 --> 0:04:59.160 the Saints. 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:03.960 No, And that's why, given the situation where Look, you 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.560 don't have a veteran quarterback that is someone that can 0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:10.120 take those early losses while he kind of acclimates to 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.279 the pro game, I think you just drop him right 0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:16.000 in the deep end because if you're killing more. Look, 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:19.440 I'm not trying to start this process with starting a 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:21.680 quarterback who's not gonna be my long term solution. Take 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:23.719 a couple l's and then put my guy in. I 0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:27.200 might as well have him work through whatever issues he's 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:30.200 going to face while we're trying to put this all together. 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:32.359 And the year to do it is now, because the 0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:35.680 first year of Killing Moore's tenure. He's a rookie, but 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.159 he's an older, more mature rookie. Why not just start 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:43.919 the situation? And considering the preseason is only three preseason games, 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.279 so he may not get a ton of work. He 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:48.240 is going to have to use the first part of 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.360 the regular season to get ready to play in the NFL, 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:51.960 So why. 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:54.239 Not just make it up and then look that first 0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:56.520 half of the season, you're going to see the majority 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.920 of your most difficult opponents, right we talked about the 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.560 first four and then you have you know at Chicago, 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.280 it's going to be a better team with Ben Johnson. 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:04.960 That's kind of an interesting one to look at too. 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:07.280 And then you got to be your home against the 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.800 Bucks in your first division game, and then you got 0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:11.760 to go to La to face the Rams, gonna be 0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:16.160 a Super Bowl contender once again. But then like you 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:19.960 go to Carolina take on the Panthers, and look, every 0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:22.039 game in the NFC South is a winnable game. Yeah, 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:24.880 I thinka Tampa is is kind of the head of 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.720 the class right now and should be. They've been, uh, 0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:29.600 you know, winning the division and all that, and the 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.480 Falcons will challenge. But like I think with the way 0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.760 that the division is constructed, those are always going to 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:39.560 be games that you know, obviously you want to really 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.200 effort to, but I think have a possibility, you know, 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:46.200 to compete in. So they got Panthers Falcons to Miami 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:50.800 to battle the Dolphins, Bucks again, Panthers again, Jets, Titans, Falcons. 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:54.200 It is a way more favorable second half of the 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.280 schedule for Tyler Shuck and the Saints. So like, you know, 0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:59.120 if you're if you can come out of this thing 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.520 in the first half and five hundred, like you've got 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:03.880 an opportunity to make a real playoff push towards the end. 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:06.040 Yeah, and that's the thing, and that's that'll be the 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:07.040 challenge for Kellen Moore. 0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:10.200 Can he keep the team together the way that he 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.680 goes about building the team out where we may start 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:14.080 slow but finished fast. 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:17.680 Can we keep everybody together and a lot of that now. 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.400 I think Derek Carr did them a solid by letting 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:22.240 them know now that he was going to be because 0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:25.320 now the entire way that they script the OTA calendar 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:28.000 and all of that, they can begin to really get 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:32.280 their young quarterback ready to play. And speaking of young 0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:35.200 quarterbacks getting ready to play, we have the number one 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:39.560 overall pick cam Ward Tennessee Titans. Their schedule comes out. 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.720 We are assuming that he's going to be the starter 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:45.840 they had Will Levis last year. But look, cam Ward 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:48.120 was drafted number one overall. There's a lot of excitement 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:52.680 and buzz just general thoughts about what is on the 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:55.000 horizon for cam Warden and Tennessee Titans when they open 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:56.200 this schedule. 0:07:56.240 --> 0:07:59.960 Four of six road game four of six for their first. 0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:02.840 Six games on the road, including the opener against the 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:08.960 Denver Broncos. Again, up and coming team, really good defense 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.240 that got better too in the draft right that Jday 0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:15.080 Baron was their first round draft pick. You throw him 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.800 in there with Pat Certan and with that whole crew 0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:18.480 there in Denver. 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:21.920 That's a that's a good group. It got better. 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:25.520 Drake Greenlaw, you know, comes over from the linebacker spot, 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.920 and that's that's a that's gonna be a real test. 0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.400 And then you and then you're you're at home against 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:35.200 the Rams, home against the Colts in your first divisional matchup. 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.480 Then you got a trio, a trio of. 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:43.559 Back to back to back road games Texans, Cardinals, Raiders, so. 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:46.240 It's look again. 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:49.000 And then you get Patriots, Colts, Chargers to kind of 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:51.600 finish out the first half of the schedule before you 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:55.520 get a week ten by Again, it's just there's no 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:56.960 eason end of this thing. I don't know that there's 0:08:56.960 --> 0:08:58.760 a team that is going to ease into this thing. 0:08:59.000 --> 0:08:59.320 Really. 0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:02.080 I mean, like, I think the competitiveness of the league, 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:06.280 even at the bottom, is so much better now based 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:08.080 off what we've seen at least on paper. Sure a 0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:10.559 lot's going to change based off what happens in training 0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:14.160 camp and injuries and all that, but overall, I mean, again, 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:17.560 throw them right into the fire and I don't think 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:19.920 they drafted cam Ward number one overall to sit behind 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:20.480 Will Levis. 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:23.160 No, I don't think that's the case at all. Too 0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:26.280 much excitement about cam Ward down to Tennessee. They're trying 0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:28.560 to build it up, and you're right, it's a tough 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:31.280 way to start for the first six games being on 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:34.200 the road. You think about who the opponents are and 0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.640 then transitioning into the division. 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:41.679 No primetime games, by the way, no prime time games 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:44.520 for the Tennessee Titans, which is kind of interesting. 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:46.920 I mean, no one overall. I mean, look, yeah, you 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:48.240 earned the one overall. 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:52.360 Yeah, so I'm not I'm not necessarily surprised it didn't 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:53.880 get a a thing. 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:57.400 Well maybe didn't. They used to always get a Thursday night. 0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:02.040 Or yeah, Jackson, now they could get Annie Bo said 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.320 they could get flexed in, right, that's part of the 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:06.160 program down the stretch, you know as well. It could 0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:07.800 get flexed in if things start going well. 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:11.719 Yeah, but so we'll see what the Titans have to do. 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:14.120 The one thing, man, that that that opener against the 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.680 Broncos advanced Joseph and how they like the dial up 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.760 pressure from everywhere. Cam Ward is going to have to 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.360 be on his p's and q's because it'll be a 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:25.640 challenging game mentally and physically based on what he's going 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:27.840 to face. Now, the guy who's not slated to start, 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:32.359 we don't expect Jackson Dark uh Jazz taking at the bottom. 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:36.000 Of the first round. But look, I love this and 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:36.840 I know, you know. 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.719 Jamis and the experience Jameis Winston. I love the n 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:45.240 L Jameis Winston and Jackson Dark hugging him, kind of 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.480 taking him under his wing, Jackson Dart talking about that, 0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:48.600 like that's super cool. 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:52.040 But now is how long before Jackson. 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.040 Dark plays for the New York Jazts Because the clock 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:55.360 is we're we're on the clock. 0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:56.920 The clock is still and let's and let's say this 0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:58.880 Like that always felt like that was going to be 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.960 the relationship, right, it was gonna be Jamis and Jackson, 0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:06.120 because Russell Wilson has got to view this as his 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:09.800 last gasp at a starting gig in the league, right, 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:12.080 I mean, this is this is what team number four, 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.360 and so like this is this is kind of going 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:18.439 to be it, right, and so like he ain't got 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:20.520 time to you. 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:20.800 Know what I mean. 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:23.040 I'm just just seriously, I don't say he's going to 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:24.280 be a bad guy or anything. 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:26.400 It's like he you know, like he's got to work it. 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:29.120 So that that to me, like jamis you know that 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:31.320 that feels like a good spot for that relationship to be. 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:34.280 But look Week one, you know, on the road in 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:37.240 the division against a team that was playing, you know, 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:40.400 for a super Bowl shot in the Washington Commanders with 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:43.840 their now second year quarterback Jaden Daniels, who was thrown 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:46.120 right into the fire right as the number two overall 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:48.480 pick and then second quarterback draft, and now Jackson was 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.840 obviously the second first round pick for the Giants all 0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:54.800 the way down there, you know, at twenty five. Then 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:57.200 they got to go to Dallas Week two, by the way, 0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:01.240 Dallas Cowboys way up there, primetime games. We'll get to 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:05.240 that here in say, but period didn't make the playoffs, 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:09.920 right and yeah, oh I get it, I get it. 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:12.240 We're gonna see them a bunch, including in the kickoff 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:14.679 game right as they traveled Affilly to take on the Eagles. 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.079 All right, So if I'm looking at this, if I'm 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.600 a Giants fan, and I'm saying, let's just say Jackson 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:25.160 doesn't start Week one, when does he start? Like that's 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:27.760 always a popular conversation topic. And as you look at this, 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:32.520 I see boy Commander's Cowboys, then Chiefs and Chargers at home. 0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:34.720 You go to New Orleans to take on the Saints. 0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:37.000 Then on a short week you get the defending Super 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:41.360 Bowl champion Eagles at home. So to me, you get 0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.000 a mini buy right, you get ten days after the 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:47.560 Eagles game from October ninth to then October nineteenth, Week 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.800 seven at Denver. To me feels like the landing spot. 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:53.040 Yeah. 0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:57.720 Now, I think ideally you love a home game, right, But. 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:00.400 In a perfect world, man, you know us to take 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:03.000 some of these hits early. You wing Jackson to learn 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:05.000 as much as he can for as long as he can. 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:07.840 The thing that is different about this situation and some 0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:10.840 I mean, you have a coach and a gentle manager 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:13.800 that's on the hot seat, like people will say squarely 0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.480 all the time, pious. So they have to get this 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.640 going one way or the other. Either they have to 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:20.880 get the team up and going, or they got to 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:24.240 get the young quarterback up and going. I think this 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:27.840 is almost like a quarterly evaluation. Let's get to the 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:31.000 first four games. Let's see where we're at. If it 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:34.600 doesn't look great, Jackson get ready, because you may not 0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:37.240 have time to wait until like mid season to be 0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.240 able to put Jackson Dart into the starting quarterback. 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.000 No, and look at it, but from all that we've 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:44.000 seen that the Giants have released from his thirty visit 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:46.760 and from the time that they've spent with him, and 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:48.640 the way that Joe Shane said on the phone, Hey, 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:50.319 you dominated the process for us and. 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:52.880 It was rigorous. Right, they won't put him through it. Right. 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.400 He does seem like the type of player with the 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.240 mental acuity to deal with the short week. I just 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:01.200 don't know that you want him to have to do that, 0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:03.720 especially with the with the defending champs on the other 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:04.200 side of it. 0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:05.720 In that, Yeah, and. 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:09.040 Maybe you wait. Maybe you wait because that's the mini buys. 0:14:08.800 --> 0:14:11.920 So maybe you wait until Yeah, after that, then you 0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:14.360 get a full extended week to be able to go 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:16.440 to work and get some of that stuff done. 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:19.440 Yeah, But then you get the Broncos at Denver and 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.440 then at So you're gonna play the Eagles twice in 0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:25.440 three weeks the Thursday night or excuse me, twice in 0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:27.600 seventeen days. 0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:31.560 Well, you can't have them. You gotta plays levels. 0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:34.280 So we got to pick out for Jackson, what's the 0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:36.320 best place to kind of drop him in the pool 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.040 and let him get to swimming without the floaties. 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:42.440 Because they don't have to buy week until week fourteen. 0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:44.240 But so he ain't waiting that long. 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:46.440 If we got to happen, he's got he's got a game. 0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:49.680 So maybe that Thursday night game represents, Hey, we need 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:51.960 to know if the if the ship is. 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:54.600 Sinking, he's the life. We got to throw it out 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:59.360 after that game. Right, that's crazy. That was this week's 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:02.720 Hot or Not segment, presented to you with Sabbi Hoigh 0:15:02.720 --> 0:15:05.720 Cloud storage, store more and do more with your data, 0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:14.760 try to them for free at Withsabi dot com. Right, 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:17.840 what else from the schedule release stood out to you? 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:18.600 What else popped up? 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:19.160 Yeah? 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:21.200 Look, I think you know, we had kind of known 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:23.240 about a lot of the international games that was all 0:15:23.520 --> 0:15:25.760 released ahead of time GMFBT. I think the fact that 0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:28.440 we are playing seven games overseas in a bunch of 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:30.760 different countries. Right, We're gonna have three in London, We're 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:32.440 gonna have one in Madrid, we have one in Berlin, 0:15:32.480 --> 0:15:34.280 we're gonna have one in Ireland. We're gonna have the 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:38.560 Vikings playing back to back games overseas in two different countries. 0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:43.400 First against the Steelers I believe that's Week four for 0:15:43.680 --> 0:15:47.520 Minnesota against in Dublin, and then they're gonna be at 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:51.120 Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Week five against the Cleveland Browns. Both 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.680 those games will be with US on NFL Network, which 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.880 is super cool. So I think I like the international 0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:02.400 you know, kind of details are always pretty interesting to me. Again, 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:03.920 those had kind of come out ahead of the full 0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:06.200 schedule release, but then looking at some of the other 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:08.320 games that come out as part of this, like the 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:12.280 Christmas Day slate, which I think is super super cool, 0:16:13.040 --> 0:16:15.280 and you know with that, we're going to be talking 0:16:15.320 --> 0:16:20.960 about two Division games there in the Christmas Day games, 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:21.680 you pull. 0:16:21.520 --> 0:16:24.680 Those up right here. Let's see. 0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:30.080 Oh, by the way, the Chiefs again playing on Thanksgiving 0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:35.160 and on Christmas Holliday stup when they're going to visit 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:38.600 the Cowboys. Chiefs and Cowboys. It would be the four 0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:40.240 thirty game on Thanksgiving Day. 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:41.560 You know, it would be great. 0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:43.440 It would be great for Taylor Swift to drop Dead 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:47.240 Christmas album all right on Thanksgiving Thanksgiving weekend. That would 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.120 be a perfect time for that to happen, Like let's 0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:51.160 take full advantage of being able to get all the 0:16:51.160 --> 0:16:52.280 clicks and all eyeballs on. 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:53.680 You can't see the Chiefs. 0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:57.800 Yeah, let's see here again taking a look at this. 0:16:59.480 --> 0:17:00.960 Prime time games. 0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:04.560 So the Chiefs ended up with the most primetime games. 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:07.800 No surprise really there. I mean I think you could 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.159 have made the argument it should it should have been 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:13.080 the Eagles, the super Bowl champs, but no problems with that. Again, 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:16.280 the Cowboys with six second most, you know, coming off 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:18.520 a season that was less than in terms of expectation. 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:19.960 You got a first year head coach. 0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:22.919 Though, I think there's some intrigue there, and you know, 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:25.640 now some of the moves that they have made. 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:26.960 I think the one thing I'm. 0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:31.639 Always curious about is, you know, how much of the 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:36.760 schedule gets taken into account post draft, you know, right, 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:40.040 because that's two weeks ago now, and so how much 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.680 of that gets put in you know, where you're trying 0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:46.679 to see rookie rookies and and identifying places where you're 0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:48.880 gonna see the rookie quarterbacks and that old thing. 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:51.600 I think that part's always pretty pretty intriguing to me. 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:54.280 Yeah, I think that bore It is really intriguing because 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:56.159 you want to see some of those matchups. You want 0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:58.600 to see some of the market names, serious and fascination 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:02.240 with Travis on So he gets a primetime game. The 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:04.240 Kancity Chiefs come to Jackson. We all take on the 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:06.679 Jaguars on a Monday night, so the world to get 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:08.879 a chance to see the two way player, see if 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.000 he actually does it two ways while going against the 0:18:12.359 --> 0:18:15.720 perennial title contenders in the kan City Chiefs. 0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:19.160 But I'm also not surprised. 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:22.679 But I will say, like the the love that you 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:26.840 mentioned the Cowboys are getting, why are the Cowboys getting love? 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:28.680 We know they're a big brand and we know all 0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:32.000 of that, but typically we're looking for those twos we 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:33.879 feel like that are gonna pop. 0:18:35.880 --> 0:18:36.160 George. 0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:39.800 Did the George Pickens move really move the needle for 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:43.600 for a ws and and the schedule mechanism. 0:18:43.400 --> 0:18:45.520 It seems like maybe there's like a little bonus points 0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:48.480 section for George Pickens because they got a lot of love, 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:50.800 a lot of. 0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:53.520
