I always I always thought when 26 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 2: I watched the jets and that we'd have the TV 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: that would come out and you could do the face 28 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 2: to face that we have that, So that's all I 29 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: really wanted. The flying cars, true, yeah, so we have that. 30 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: The flying cars we don't have. We don't I know. 31 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,199 Speaker 4: But you know what though, I think there's somewhere, Arnie, 32 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 4: They're they're somewhere because you remember back to the future too, Yes, 33 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 4: and that's when they we saw you could talk talk 34 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 4: to someone on TV and see him. Now that's like 35 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 4: the norm, right FaceTime, your phone, Google meets. 36 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: All that stuff, zoom, all that stuff. 37 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 4: You know, these these microwaves that can super cook fast food, remember, yeah, yeah, 38 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 4: they put in and two seconds later the whole pizza 39 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 4: comes out. You can do all that now. But I 40 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 4: believe the flying cars are somewhere. They got the soft dreint, 41 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 4: they got the self driving ones out here in LA 42 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,839 Speaker 4: now that they use as like taxis, the self driving cars, 43 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 4: they have those out here in Los Angeles now. So 44 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 4: I think the flying there's somewhere. Man, there's somewhere Elon 45 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 4: got next. 46 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe not in my lifetime, but that is next, 47 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 2: that's for sure. 48 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 4: When they got the hoverboard, now do you see the hoverboard? 49 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 4: They see the hoverboard? Ye see the hoverboards seeing the 50 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 4: hoverboard there. Yeah, there's a flying car somewhere on the 51 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 4: States that we were supposed to have, something like the 52 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 4: people movers like they used to have in Disneyland, where 53 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 4: you just kind of get. 54 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 2: Into a little, you know, car that just kind of 55 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 2: jets you away to the next place, kind of like 56 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 2: the jets. 57 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 4: Okay, you know what I mean? Where okay? 58 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. 59 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: Just quickly off time off side bars, New Year's Zve. 60 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 3: Do you believe in time traveling? 61 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 4: Do you believe that? I'm fifty fifty fifty fifty the 62 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 4: Simpsons time Travelers because they predicted way too much stuff 63 00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 4: for thirty one seasons. 64 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 2: I see pictures where they go, what about this guy 65 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: who's back in the nineteen thirties, but he's out of 66 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: a telephone or something, right, I'm like, that's not a telephone. 67 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: I can't tell. I don't know what that is. 68 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 4: I'm with you. It's it's it's like I don't know, 69 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 4: but I'm not gonna say no, right, So I guess 70 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 4: that makes me fifty right. 71 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: All right, we got a lot of NFL to get to. 72 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 2: I did pull up the TV broadcast schedule. I guess 73 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: what we're we're not taking in the consideration is like, 74 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: if you take the CBS early game, there's only three games, 75 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: So the Indianapolis Houston game will go to forty seven 76 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: states of the country, which is like ninety three percent, 77 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 2: which is what they could have done with one of 78 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 2: the Saturday games, which was my point, or the CBS 79 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: late game where the Chargers Denver game, well pretty much 80 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: about eighty percent. Would I would do that just because 81 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: you wouldn't want all the good games on Saturday. You 82 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: want to go ahead and have that, you know, that 83 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 2: up in the air on Sunday. Also, because there was 84 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: so little this year, there was only three games where 85 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: they made such a big difference, and we're doing two 86 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: on Saturday. But again it's I don't care about the ratings. 87 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't really make that much for me. 88 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 4: But say forty seven states of forty seven percent? 89 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: No, forty seven states. 90 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 3: Okay, so which game is that? 91 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 4: Again? I'm just I'm just looking us up Indianapolis Houston. Okay, 92 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 4: so the. 93 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: Indianapolis Houston game you're saying is going to forty. 94 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: It's already except for the Cincinnati Cleveland area, huh and 95 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Green Bayed Chicago Detroit. 96 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 3: So yeah, they're definitely not gonna run no games in 97 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 3: that area. 98 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 5: That that's uh yeah, that's so every day you're usually 99 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 5: going up against two or three others, but this game 100 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 5: still has playoff implications. My point is the Saturday games 101 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 5: are for divisions, right right, so you will let's find Yeah, 102 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 5: it means more those two games on Saturday, right way the. 103 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 2: Coach Houston game, to me, Sundays mean more than Saturdays. 104 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: That's the way. That's what the NFL is there. 105 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 4: At at this time. 106 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 3: No, come on, man, they've been doing Saturday games for 107 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 3: thirty years now. 108 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 4: They've already given us a good and full Week seventeen, 109 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 4: well it was Week seventeen, then now Week eighteen. We've 110 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 4: always had at least one meaningful Saturday week last week 111 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 4: of the year NFL game for the last twenty years. 112 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 2: We'll see how the ratings are for the Sunday games. 113 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 2: I'm kind of curious about that. If you want to 114 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: get it. In a matter of fact, we do have 115 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: people that wanted to comment on this real quick. Gutter said, 116 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: Panthers is my game. I'm glutu for the TV on Sunday. Well, 117 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 2: he's after him Saturday. Excuse me. Colin says, Hawks Donders 118 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 2: game on Saturday night made up for a really bad 119 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: Monday night schedule this year? Was Monday Night really that bad? 120 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 4: I really, I don't know if it was that bad. 121 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 4: I thought we got I thought we got some good 122 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 4: games on Monday nights that we just didn't expect. You 123 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 4: think about like that Denver Commander's game right out there, 124 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 4: where you think you know the Denver's going to show 125 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 4: up and walk through them, and Marcus Mariota was damn 126 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 4: near with the. 127 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 3: Overtime and damn near won that game. 128 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 4: I think about games like that where on paper it 129 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 4: looked like crap, but once you put the game on, 130 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 4: the product spoke for. 131 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 2: Itself, all right, TJ, TJ, thank you, VJ. I want 132 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 2: to move on because I want to do something with 133 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 2: you that I did with Chris plank On.

I want you to 136 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 2: you can give me four possible, four different type of answers. 137 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 2: I'm going to give you Lamar Jackson. I want you 138 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: to tell me what's in Lamar Jackson's head, and I'm 139 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: going to I'll give you that first answer. If I'm 140 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 2: in Lamar Jackson's head right now, I'm mad at my team. 141 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: I feel like everybody's against me, that they don't want 142 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 2: me here and they're picking on me. I'm a two 143 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 2: time MVP, I'm a four time Pro Bowl, but I 144 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 2: don't have the best record obviously in the playoffs. I 145 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 2: feel or pick people are picking on me, and I 146 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 2: want to go somewhere else right that's if I'm Lamar Jackson. 147 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 2: The fans. I feel the fans want Lamar Jackson out. 148 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: It just feels like they don't appreciate him. They feel 149 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 2: like it's always the grass is greener on the other side, 150 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 2: and they want themselves another quarterback. I believe the Ravens 151 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 2: will do anything to keep Lamar Jackson on the team. 152 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 2: They love him, they know what he's worth. They want 153 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: him on the team. What's actually going to happen is 154 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: he's gone. And I fought with this with Jason Cole 155 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: when I was filing in last week. He said he's 156 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: not going. There's no way he's going. That's just not happening. 157 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 2: I spoke to the owner, and I don't think he's 158 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 2: coming back. I think there's some bad blood. I think 159 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: these stories that got leaked out there's a reason they 160 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: get leaked out. I think it kind of hurts the relationship. 161 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: I don't think he's coming back now. I don't know 162 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 2: if he's gonna end up in Miami or Las Vegas 163 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: or Arizona, or the latest rumor is now Minnesota. I 164 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: can't give you an answer to that, VJ. I just know, 165 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 2: as if I'm in Lamar's head, I think he wants 166 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: to leave, and I think he'll end up leaving when 167 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: it's all said and done. What do you think? 168 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 4: I told Calvin Washington today, Yeah, And I told Steve 169 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 4: eve Hartman, my partner on end Zone Radio, this last Sunday, 170 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 4: I want to go out on a limb and I can. 171 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 4: I can see a world we live in Arnie where 172 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow are on different NFL teams 173 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 4: this offseason. 174 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 2: Oh, I totally agree with you. 175 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 4: The Bengals have already put it out there. Hey, we're 176 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 4: listening because Joe Burrow is talking like I want out 177 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 4: of here. Yes he's just not saying I went out 178 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,119 Speaker 4: of here. But guys that are smarter than the average bear, 179 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 4: like you and myself, we read through that. We know 180 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 4: what you're and here's the thing. I get what you're 181 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 4: saying and how you're doing it, because that's how you 182 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 4: kind of gotta do it. Like he just can't come 183 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 4: out and say I want out because yes, you had 184 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 4: a Super. 185 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: Bowl run that was five years ago. You can't stay 186 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 3: on the field. 187 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 4: We got Jason McIntyre, who is a colleague of ours 188 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 4: here over Fox Sports One that calls him glass Joe. Okay, 189 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 4: like you get hurt brouh. So you can't really you know, 190 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 4: you can't really piss him too loud, but you can 191 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 4: make some noise because we do see that you've been bawling. 192 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 4: But just this franchise doesn't care. Over to Lamar Jackson, Yeah, 193 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 4: remember two years ago, about three years ago, probably you 194 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 4: and I were doing the show over the summertime. I 195 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 4: think Scott ha put us together like three times in 196 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 4: like a two week span in like July, where and 197 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 4: it was leading up to the rumors that the Dolphins 198 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 4: were in on trying to trade for who won Lamar Jackson, 199 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 4: and then Lamar signed this deal. Remember he's from from Miami, 200 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 4: from the South South Florida area. I told Steve Hartman 201 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 4: this this past Sunday verbatim. If I'm the Dolphins, I 202 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 4: get why you benched to him, and I don't just 203 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 4: jet them off. The cat hits just really too heavy 204 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 4: for this year. Maybe next year, but for this year, 205 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 4: it's just a little too heavy for what they're trying 206 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 4: to do there in South Beach, especially after they hire 207 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 4: theoretic Excuse me, Lewis Riddick. 208 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: That's why I want to be the GM. He does 209 00:09:58,480 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: a great job. I love that guy. 210 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 4: I think he's gonna be a GM. He worked at 211 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 4: the NFL front offices before. But you go to the 212 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 4: off season that hey, tools the starter, we're cool here. 213 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 4: But you start picking up the phone and you start 214 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 4: calling Baltimore again, and he said, hey, listen, can we reignition? 215 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 3: Can we reignite? 216 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 4: Excuse me? Can we reignite those conversations? 217 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 2: Does he want to leave? Do you think he wants 218 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 2: to leave? 219 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 3: I can't answer either one of those questions. 220 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 4: The question I can answer, would it probably be best 221 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 4: with all parties involved, that if they lose Sunday night 222 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 4: on national TV on the move, fifteen to twenty million 223 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 4: people watching, it might be time for two people. And 224 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 4: I hate to say it about the one guy that 225 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 4: I love his brother, but it might be time that 226 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 4: John and Lamar both say, and it's been, it's been, 227 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 4: it's been a run. We tried it. It's not, it's 228 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 4: not it's just not happening. They've never got Lamar a 229 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 4: pro go to wr one. Never his best receiver has 230 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 4: been a tight end. He's got Derrick Henry. Now. They 231 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 4: were in a conference championship game at home and Monkin 232 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 4: decided to try to make him a pocket passer and 233 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 4: they lost seventeen to fourteen to the Chiefs at home 234 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 4: and Zay Flowers fumbles the ball going in the end 235 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 4: zo late in the fourth quarter that causes a touchback. 236 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 4: Like they've gotten this much juice and squeeze out of 237 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 4: this orange that they possibly can get, and it just 238 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 4: might be time that maybe Harball, even if Cleveland job 239 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 4: comes available. Hell, if what I'm hearing in Miami, I've 240 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 4: always heard that McDaniel's are safe. But for so long 241 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 4: you keep hearing no, no, he's not in it. Recently 242 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 4: you hear these Cleveland stories the Fanskey could be out 243 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 4: of Cleveland, which you should be. He should be fired 244 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 4: from there. Maybe Harball finds his way down, Maybe him 245 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 4: and Lamar are a package deals. 246 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 2: Well, Jeff Lamar, if you were gonna bet now, think 247 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 2: Lamar's coming back here. 248 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 3: Oh, I've already said it. I'm I'm I'm No, Lamar's gone. 249 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't even matter of fact, we got it 250 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 2: a tweet that says you said Lamar was going last time, 251 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: stinking Genus Lamar. He isn't going anywhere. 252 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 4: He almost was, though. 253 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: I think he feels some bad blood in Baltimore. No, 254 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 2: I can't be in his head. It just feels that way. 255 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: I want to go out to the next time. 256 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 4: I wanted to bring up to really quick on Baltimore. 257 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 4: Another reason why he might want out. Why is Baltimore 258 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 4: always so beat up and hurt? I'm talking from top 259 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 4: to bottom. It's not just Lamar Jackson. There's something's up 260 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 4: with their their their training team, their their physical therapy team, 261 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 4: their recovery team. Something's up there. Go look at Baltimore's 262 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 4: injuries over the last five years. They're always decimated by injuries. 263 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 4: Why is that the case there? What's not being done 264 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 4: to keep these guys? Because there's a department in every 265 00:12:54,840 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 4: pro football, basketball, hockey, baseball franchise, there's a depart me 266 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 4: that's in charge of what Arnie cheaping the guys on 267 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 4: the damn but sometimes for our diamond or ice and 268 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 4: Baltimore can't seem to. 269 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 2: Do it again in ACL. 270 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 4: That's not on the No, no, no, that's not on them. 271 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 4: But goodness, gracious, twinge here, tweak here, right right here, 272 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 4: twist here, come. 273 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 2: On, yeah right, And I don't have an answer to 274 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 2: that one. But Lamar Jackson had a bruise and he 275 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: didn't play, and a lot of people are being very 276 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 2: critical about him for that, and I actually am. We'll 277 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 2: see if he actually is gonna be in the game. 278 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 4: He got a team practice, You got a team for him, 279 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 4: just real quick. You got a team for him, for 280 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson, you got a team for him. I like Miami. 281 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 2: I was gonna say if he if Lamar had his 282 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: choice right now and they said you could pick any 283 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: team to play for. I believe he'd picked Miami. I 284 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: believe Miami wants a quarterback. Obviously they're gonna move on 285 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 2: for Tua. I just don't know how it's going to 286 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 2: work with the money. To be honest with you, that 287 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 2: that makes my head spin to think how I'm gonna 288 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 2: cut him and get him and eat the cap and 289 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 2: do this, And it just makes my headspend trying to 290 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:03,359 Speaker 2: figure out mathematics. 291 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 3: Million if he signs a new deal, you gonna that. 292 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 2: From No, But I don't have to pay it, so 293 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 2: you know I'm not the order. Let me get to 294 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: two of those, because I don't think he's gonna be 295 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 2: back with Miami. But where is he going to end up? 296 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: I heard people telling me on Sunday and Monday he's 297 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 2: not a starter in the NFL. I'm like, look, Tua 298 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 2: is not going to a team where he's not going 299 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: to be a starter, or at least compete for a 300 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 2: spot to be a starter. And it's a legitimate spot 301 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: to compete. There is Vegas, there is Arizona, there is Minnesota. 302 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 2: There are teams that are gonna want somebody like Tua. 303 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 2: In this case, the grass might be greener for Tua. 304 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: I still think he's a starting quarterback in the NFL. VJ. 305 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 2: I'm not ready to give up on him. I'm just 306 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: ready to give up Ottom with Miami. 307 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he's still a starting quarterback. Here's what 308 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 4: I said a few weeks ago, Hartman, Montsie, everybody on 309 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 4: the show Bow everybody agreed with We were all right 310 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 4: and wrong about Tour. Everybody was everyone was right and 311 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 4: wrong about Toa for various reasons. We were right about 312 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 4: Tour when he first came out of college and everybody 313 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 4: was tanking for Tour, and he led the league and 314 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 4: complete some percentage, then led the league in yards, then 315 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 4: led the league in QBR. Right, he did those three 316 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 4: things in three separate seasons, leading the number one offense 317 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 4: in the NFL back to back years. That's not easy 318 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 4: to do. But there were also people that didn't like 319 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 4: Toua that would be able to catch up with time 320 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 4: with the concussions and say, oh see he can't process, 321 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 4: he can't throw. I did some research on this about 322 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 4: two weeks ago. 323 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: Yeh. 324 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 4: The average reaction time slows down for a NFL player, 325 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 4: anybody that's had more than two concussions by upwards of 326 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 4: twenty five to thirty percent. When you watch him play, 327 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 4: he's not processing fast the concussions because you don't get better, Arnie, 328 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 4: like you've heard Troy Aikman talk about it. You've heard 329 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 4: other players. You don't get better. Troy had to just 330 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 4: walk away from Remember Troy Aikman had to retire because 331 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 4: of concussions. It wasn't age, It wasn't it wasn't it 332 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 4: wasn't longevity. It was his career got cut short because 333 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 4: the quarterbacks are hit at. 334 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 3: Right, and they're not playing on the vet turf. 335 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 4: They're not playing on Texas Stadium to what basically the 336 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 4: protective big carpet over carpet over concrete. It's what those 337 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 4: stadiums think about it. The Giants think about the games 338 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 4: they used to have to play in the NFC. East Man, goodness, gracious. 339 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 4: So I think that Tua could still be a starting quarterback, 340 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 4: but I'm just not sure if it's gonna be with 341 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 4: like a contendent type team because his reaction time is 342 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 4: slowed down because the concussions have taken a toll. And 343 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 4: you could just see him also too out there. He 344 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 4: doesn't want to get hit, and I saw somebody trying 345 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 4: to clown him on ESPN about that, and I really 346 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 4: got pissed about that, cause it's like, bro, if you 347 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 4: if your life had flashed in front of your eyes 348 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 4: three times in your career, you might be a little 349 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 4: skittish too. Let's not sit in a warm, cuzy studio 350 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 4: and now try to act like someone is soft. Where 351 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 4: do you want to go? If I if I think 352 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 4: he's out of Miami, To be honest with you, well. 353 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 2: But if I'm Tua, I'm saying, you know what, guys, 354 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 2: I know it might might might not be the best situation. 355 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 2: I think I'd like to go to the Las Vegas Raiders. 356 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 2: Maybe have Tom Brady work with me, maybe get some weapons. 357 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 2: I do have a good running back, and get gentry, 358 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 2: get the interview. 359 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 4: Taking the best player in the draft. If you had 360 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 4: the Raiders and not taking Mendoza. 361 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 2: No, well that's the Raiders for to choose from. I'm 362 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 2: probably taking Mendoza. But I'm just saying, you know, if 363 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 2: I can get a quarterback, and I don't have to 364 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 2: pay big money. But you don't have to pay big 365 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 2: money when you're just drafting a quarterback. 366 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 4: Later on you do, we don't have to pay big money. 367 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 4: If the Dolphins trade him and have to eat some 368 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 4: of the salary for you don't have to eat most 369 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 4: of it exactly that you're getting You're so you're getting 370 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 4: a veteran guy. You are, Yes, you went through the 371 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 4: wars who played on her, smart guy like Mike Madde 372 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 4: and we can just go to him really fast. I've 373 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 4: been saying since September on our end Zone show, he's 374 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 4: not getting fired. I have connections with the Doggs. Mcdanieals 375 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 4: he's not getting fired. 376 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 2: He's I don't think so. 377 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 4: The Ross likes him a lot, and Ross has told 378 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 4: people close to him, if I fire him, we're just 379 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: resetting again. The problem is retention of players. People keep 380 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 4: leaving Miami, and that's a GM issue. And then they 381 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 4: finally got rid of Grier and fired Greer. Not only that, 382 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 4: they fired a VP of operations and the assistant VP 383 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 4: of operations. They have two major positions in the front 384 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 4: office that are hirable right now. And the reason why 385 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 4: no one's filled that job, I'm telling you I talked 386 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 4: to someone in Miami this week. They're waiting for mister 387 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 4: Lewis Riddic to finish the thirty nine Bowl games he's 388 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 4: been calling, and you've been watching a lot of bowl games. 389 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 4: You hear this guy, you just feel like you get 390 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 4: smarter about the sport of football when you listen to him. 391 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 4: But remember he was in the Raider front office and 392 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 4: the Washington Redskins now the Commander's front office. So he's done. 393 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 4: He's been in front offices before, and he knows the 394 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 4: game and knows talent. 395 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 3: It depends on who Miami High years. 396 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 4: If that GM now then looks and goes two, is 397 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 4: our quarterback. Let's just beef up our quarterback room. Zach Wilson, 398 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 4: thanks for your one year, but go Quinn will give 399 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 4: you another year. The players like Quinn. Did you see 400 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,719 Speaker 4: devon a chain talk about him? 401 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 2: Right right right? 402 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 4: That's that's not a player. You're kissing the teammates. That's 403 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 4: how he feels about the guy. 404 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you something. If I'm if I'm TUA 405 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,239 Speaker 2: and you betch me like that, that's like VJ. If 406 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: my girlfriend says, yeah, we're still going out, but I 407 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 2: do have a date with another guy this Saturday. I 408 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 2: hope you don't mind, you know what. I I'm sorry, 409 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 2: I'm the hell out, I'm out of here. If I'm too, 410 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 2: I'm so hurt. I don't want to take another snap 411 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 2: for the Miami Dolphins. But but I know you can't 412 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: think like that. But that's just me. You you play 413 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 2: Quinn yours, you bet me, I'm out of here. 414 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 4: I don't like I don't like that. That does the 415 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 4: show toughness to me. The reason why, and I'll be 416 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 4: fast on the re the break. The reason why I 417 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 4: thought they bitched them is because once they knew they 418 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 4: were being eliminated, it's not been a good year. Let's 419 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 4: here here, buddy, Let's get you out. Let's get you 420 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 4: out of there. Let's not get you hurt. Let's take 421 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 4: a look at the rook I really thought, and I 422 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 4: said that on live air. I really thought that's all 423 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 4: that was. Man. It's like, listen, let's just take a 424 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: look at the rook We're out of the playoff run. There. 425 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 4: There's no reason having our fifty six million dollar quarnerback 426 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 4: out there playing for nothing, and all he needs to 427 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 4: do is get a concussion in week seventeen. That's the 428 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 4: last thing we need. So that's how I always viewed that. 429 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 2: We'll go through some of more of the names, and 430 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 2: we got some coaches. We'll go through some of the 431 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 2: games for Week eighteen. All that coming up next.

I didn't like the year, 451 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: like I said, the lack of races for the wild 452 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 2: Card and we didn't get a whole heck of it. 453 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 2: I just I gave it a c plus I didn't 454 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 2: Maybe it was my Dolphins suck.

Like when I came into an NFL fan, 464 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 4: I came into the domination of the Niners in the 465 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 4: eighties and Dan Marino coming in and breaking records right away, 466 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 4: which brought us into the Cowboys, which then led us 467 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 4: into Brett Favron at Packers, who then let us into 468 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 4: John Elway and the Broncos. We then let us into 469 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 4: Tom Brady and then not Tom Brady, we had Brady Rogers, 470 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 4: Big Ben Peyton, Manny and Philip Rivers. Like we went 471 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 4: through a twenty year run of the same guys, whether 472 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 4: you like them or not. Flacco stole one, Brad Johnson 473 00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 4: stole one, Trent Delfer stole one. But for the most 474 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 4: part it was gonna be one of those guys. And 475 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 4: now all those guys are gone except for discount double check, 476 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 4: who looks terrible up in Pittsburgh. And now you have 477 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 4: Bo Knicks. Now you have Kayln Williams. Now you have 478 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 4: Jaden Daniels. Now you have a a D. Yeah, Jaden Damils. 479 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 4: He was just hurt this year. Let's not count that, gal. 480 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 4: Let's let's not do that talk. Guy's still good. Now 481 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 4: you have Joe Burrow. Now you have Trevor Lawrence awaking up. 482 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 4: Now you have Jordan Love. Now you have Justin Herbert 483 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 4: Dak Prescott. You have now this general Jared Golf. Right, 484 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 4: you have this generation now of the changing of the 485 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 4: guard in the NFL. Whoever has the best quarterbacks and 486 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 4: the best coaching are gonna be the teams that are 487 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 4: gonna be in the conference championship game and that are 488 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 4: gonna play for a lot of Super Bowls. That's just 489 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 4: the way the NFL has been for fifty years. 490 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 2: Mahome's not gonna be in it this year, that's for sure. 491 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 2: Right now, that he's one of the best, the best 492 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 2: chan changing of the guard though. So that's what was 493 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 2: so interesting to me this year is it was fun 494 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 2: to see Bryce Young might have a shot to win 495 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 2: his first division championship. 496 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 4: Drake Mays won the division championship. Uh, Sam Darnold can 497 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 4: win his first division championship. Brock Perty can have a 498 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 4: bounce back. I thought this year was an a because 499 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 4: we saw the changeing of the Bijon Robinson. Now it's 500 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 4: best back in all around back in football. We've we're 501 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 4: seeing a chain. Our guy down in Miami leaves the 502 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 4: league in yards per carry a five point six a pop. 503 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 4: Like you're seeing a change in the guard. That's what 504 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 4: made the season fun for me. I'll ask you this 505 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 4: and I'll let you go on after this, Arnie, is 506 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 4: there a clearcut team that's gonna win the championship this year? 507 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 2: No, not at all, matter of fact that yeah, but 508 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 2: there you go. It is wide open, and maybe it's 509 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 2: kind of like it's like the March Madness, where if 510 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 2: I don't have blue bloods in it, I don't enjoy 511 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 2: it as much. And that's the way it's normally. We 512 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: like the first round upsets but we like the blue bloods. 513 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 2: In the final four, it is white, which I enjoy that. 514 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 2: I just didn't enjoy the season. But to me, throw 515 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 2: out a couple of names that you more and we 516 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 2: got a couple of games to get to. Here's a 517 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 2: quarterback who I like, but I'm in the minority. He 518 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 2: did good things when he first came into the league, 519 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 2: but now he's definitely on the out. So we're talking 520 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 2: about Kyler Murray. Where do you stand on him? Is 521 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: he still a starter? I wouldn't mind seeing him in Miami. 522 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 2: Do you like him or are you ready to give 523 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 2: a pass on him? No? 524 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 4: I still like him and he's still a starter. I 525 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 4: just I would want to know where you. 526 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 2: Convinced me right off that with that as far. 527 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 4: As football, because I would I would want to sit 528 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 4: in a room with him. Yeah, and I would want 529 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 4: to try to figure out what is football to you? Like, 530 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 4: that's what you got to know? What is football to you? 531 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 4: So you believe that he's playing the video game? 532 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, none of that. 533 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 4: I just think that something not think being at a 534 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 4: cover pro sports personally, I see guys who love it 535 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 4: for what it gives them and the lifestyle it gives them. 536 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 4: And then I've seen guys who love it no matter 537 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 4: what the lifestyle is, and they would do it for free. 538 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 4: You see both of the sides of that. Like justin Herbert, 539 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 4: like I've covered them for two years now. I've talked 540 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 4: to that man twenty times. He would play if it 541 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 4: was free. Right, He's not doing this for money, He's 542 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 4: not doing this for fame. He's not doing this for fortune. 543 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 4: He gets paid a ton because he's an NFL quarterback, 544 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 4: but you can tell he's invested in this, like this 545 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 4: comes first, second, third, doesn't have any children yet, so 546 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 4: this comes first, second, third, and then maybe the girlfriend 547 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 4: is like fourth or fifth, but football's first, second, and third, 548 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 4: maybe even fourth. You surety you might line up at 549 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 4: number five and you're just gonna have to take that 550 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 4: slot if you're gonna date me, because I'm the quarterback 551 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 4: of the Charger. So with Todd Kyler, I would need 552 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 4: to know that truck Jets are in the market. I 553 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 4: think I think the Jets are the team that's probably 554 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 4: gonna make the biggest push for him. 555 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 2: Vegas may know Vegas. 556 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 4: Ends up with the number one an overall pick, right, 557 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 4: there's not a quarterback in the NFL today, not unless 558 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 4: they trade for Burrow. If they trade for Burrow or Lamar, okay, 559 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 4: but they have no choice either trade that pick and 560 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 4: get out. If you don't love Mendoza after the pre 561 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 4: draft process, sitting and talking with him pro day, combine 562 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 4: all that stuff. If you're not sold one hundred percent, 563 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 4: gather more picks and let somebody else go up and 564 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 4: get him and say, hey, we'll find a veteran of 565 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 4: eight Kirk Cousins. Kirk Cousins is out there, there's another 566 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 4: and he's looked fine. He's looked good for Ortlanta these 567 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 4: last few weeks half of the season that Pinnix was 568 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 4: ruled out. So I just if you're not gonna take 569 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 4: Mendoza at number one, get out of that pick and 570 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 4: maybe replace your quarterback. That's someone that's already in the league. 571 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 4: But it better be a damn good replace. 572 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 2: All right. Let's get to some of the coaches. Let 573 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 2: me start with Pete Carroll. I don't think he's coming back. 574 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 2: He obviously wants to come back now though, the only 575 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 2: thing that's making me hesitant on this VJA is that 576 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 2: the Raiders already have paid three head coaches early, they're 577 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 2: still paying one. How many do they want to pay? 578 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 2: Do they go one more year? I'm ninety percent they'll 579 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 2: get rid of people. That part of me feels maybe 580 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: they'll give one more chance. What do you think? 581 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 3: No, I listen, he's done. This isn't working. 582 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 2: But I'm just talking money wise. 583 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 4: I was thinking, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, just 584 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 4: eat Okay. So the example I'll give you is dever Broncos. Yeah, 585 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 4: when they moved for Russell and what was that cap hit? 586 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 4: Like fifty eight millions? Yeah it was, it was over sixty. Yeah, 587 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 4: but they said, listen, we'll eat money. We'll eat it, 588 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 4: eat it now, right, instead of dealing with it later. 589 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 4: Let's find a QB. Let's just struggle through these first 590 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 4: few years and then pop they get a rookie quarterback 591 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 4: that takes it to a playoff game and then this 592 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 4: year just won the division. Like sometimes you gotta just 593 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 4: eat the money up front. Stop thinking about this money, 594 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 4: this cap hit and all this other crap. Eat. 595 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, what about somebody like Aaron Glenn with the Jets? 596 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: Do you keep him one? 597 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, a year you have to keep he doesn't have 598 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 4: the reason why you keep aeron Glenn. He doesn't have 599 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 4: a quarterback. You can't fire coach without a quarterback, right, 600 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 4: he doesn't have a quarterback, So how can you fire 601 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 4: that guy? They fired a defensive coordinat which they should 602 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 4: have because teams have been running up and down. But 603 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 4: once again, someone that covers this league. I've said this 604 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 4: so many times on our End Zone show Man. When 605 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 4: you get the week eleven, week twelve and you're in 606 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 4: these locker rooms and you're covering bad teams, trust me, Arnie, 607 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 4: some of those hamstrings hurt a little more. Some of 608 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 4: those caves hurt a little more. Some of those groins. Oh, 609 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 4: I can't go today. We went out pregame and we 610 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 4: gave it. No, you're two and twelve, it's thirteen degrees out, 611 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 4: we're up at Chicago. I don't want to play today. 612 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 4: I gotta hurt groin. We're two and twelve. That's what 613 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 4: I think is happening with the Jets and their defense 614 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 4: is just, you know, kind of falling apart. I don't 615 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 4: think Sauce gardeners as good as everybody else does. I 616 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 4: call him Grabby grab Hands. He leads the NFL in 617 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 4: his first three years in the League seven seven this year. 618 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 4: He was right exactly because he's overrated. But I've been 619 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 4: telling you this for years. He's so overrated. He grabs 620 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 4: and holds so much. I call him grabby grab hands 621 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 4: because he does all he does. But they moved on 622 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 4: from him. They traded Quent Williams because they needed draft 623 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 4: capital man to really try to rebuild this. I think 624 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 4: Aaron Glenn's fine, a right. 625 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 2: Real quick, give me, give me your short version of Stefanski. 626 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 2: They bring him back for another year. 627 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 3: Gone gone. 628 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 4: He totally screwed this upright, he totally screwed this up. 629 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 4: And it's and it's not a shr door thing. It's just, dude, 630 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 4: you Baker got worse under you. How how's Baker looked 631 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 4: since he left Cleveland. Let's just go there. 632 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 2: Well, Baker did have one good year with. 633 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 4: Cleveld one one and then once and then he but 634 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 4: he got worse as his career under the fans. 635 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 2: The numbers should put you in the Hall of Fame. 636 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: But I know, right, I know right playing we're gonna 637 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 2: come back.

What's crazy is that the 644 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 7: Hurricanes turned the ball over in the red zone on 645 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 7: their second drive of the game, but then turn things around. 646 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 7: They shut out the buck guys in the first half 647 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 7: and had to pick six. Carson Beck only threw for 648 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 7: one hundred and thirty eight yards and a touchdown, but 649 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 7: it was enough.

San Francisco wins this game, they 707 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 2: don't go on the road until after they win the 708 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 2: Super Bowl because the super bowls in their own backyard. 709 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one? Seattle though the 710 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 2: number one seed. If they go ahead and win this, 711 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 2: I believe. How do you see this game? 712 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 4: I've been saying, ah year long, this is a good 713 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 4: football team. I love what McDonald's done with this team. 714 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 4: He's invigorated his style of defense that he had up 715 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,919 Speaker 4: in Ann Arbor at Michigan, which Jesse Minner is also 716 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 4: using with the Chargers. You're talking two top seven defenses. 717 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 4: But Sam Darnald, as always since he was at USC, 718 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 4: when the game is on the line, in the biggest moments, 719 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 4: he'll give it up like an ig model on All 720 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 4: Star Weekend. Man, he's gonna turn the ball over. And 721 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 4: this San Francisco team, I don't know how Shanahan has 722 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 4: done it. I had Rabel as my Coach of the 723 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 4: Year two weeks ago. I can't change that. I gotta 724 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 4: stick with it. By the rules of the end zone, 725 00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 4: show that we do on Sundays. But if Shannonhan, how 726 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 4: the hell has he pulled this off with running McCaffrey 727 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 4: into the ground over three hundred and sixty touches this year, 728 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 4: receivers out, defensive players out, Bolsa gone, Warner gone, How 729 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 4: has he done this with this team? And when he 730 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 4: finishes it Saturday night, they're gonna win this game. And 731 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 4: I think they win this game by four six points. 732 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: Ev mister irrelevant quarterback, what do you think of Brock Purdy? 733 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 4: Now, I mean he's listen, he's a good quarterback. He's 734 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 4: a good quarterback. Pro listen, gamis props, o, game is propse. 735 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 4: I don't think he's super great, but if he's good 736 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 4: enough to get your job done, contract right now, you 737 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 4: gotta pay the quarterback. But he's good enough to get 738 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 4: the job done. And my line with quarterbacks says, if 739 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 4: he's doing what the coaches are telling him to do, 740 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 4: who the hell are we to sit here and go, oh, well, 741 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 4: he does your throw deep? Well, the coaches ain't told 742 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 4: him to throw deep. The coaches are saying throw here, 743 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 4: hand here, and he's doing that in their winning So 744 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 4: he's doing his job. So beginning to nine er here. Now, 745 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 4: I think they went by lay four to six points. 746 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 2: You do this job because they're winning. That's totally, that's 747 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 2: totally has to do it, and that's they'll be happy. Ravens, Steelers, 748 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 2: Tomlins lining. Is Tomlin's job on the line? Is Lamar 749 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 2: going to play? For sure? How do you see this one? 750 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 2: I think Pittsburgh gets to win here. 751 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 4: I think Lamar has earned the right that if he 752 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 4: can go, him and Harball get face to face, man 753 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 4: the man, Harbaugh says, A kiddo, this has been an 754 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 4: off year, but we can erase all that bleep right 755 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 4: here tonight on the road against a division rival, go 756 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 4: get me this one.

Have you seen that 760 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 4: Pittsburgh rush defense this year? Oh my god, it's atrocious. 761 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 4: I think the Ravens go up here and then now 762 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 4: only save Harball's job, but they might hold off getting 763 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 4: rid of Lamar. Reports are from out from Breer, from 764 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 4: NFL dot com or ESPN wherever the guy works, that 765 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 4: there could be some discussions that tom Lin could not 766 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 4: be fired because they're not gonna fire him. It'll be 767 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 4: printed as mutual decision. Then go to TV or does 768 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 4: he take another job. I think the Raiders is perfect 769 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 4: for him because I think I think, I think, uh, 770 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:34,240 Speaker 4: I think Pete Carroll's gone get him a new quarterback Miami. 771 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 4: Uh depends on who ad quarterback is gonna be. Honestly, 772 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 4: if it's to A no, I don't think he would 773 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 4: mess well with to him, absolutely not.
