And it's 13 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 2: Matt and I have always said this campus can go 14 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 2: from really raucous and rowdy very quickly to quiet and calm. 15 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: And it is now quiet and calm once again. 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 3: But joining us now minutes signs things change dramatically. 17 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, things change here every every ten to fifteen minutes. 18 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 2: It's it's pretty nuts.

You know, I'm 37 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 4: really experienced against the college. 38 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a really cool environment. We're excited for you 39 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: to experience. We're excited to see you. You're heading out 40 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: here now. A couple months from now, we'll be heading 41 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 2: out your way. But it really all started Mick you know, 42 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 2: twenty eight years ago today, this anniversary of the Steelers 43 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety seven preseason game in Dublin, a thirty to 44 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: thirteen victory over the Chicago Bears, and a great story 45 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,119 Speaker 2: that you wrote on Steelers dot Com kind of recapping 46 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: that and remembering the first time that the Steelers took 47 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: the field in Ireland. I know you talked to Cordell 48 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 2: Stewart as well too as part of that process. What 49 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: was that like for you is, as you know, an 50 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 2: Irishman growing up a Steelers fan, having that type of 51 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: history and memory and while looking forward to everything that 52 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: we're going to get to do in September as well. 53 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 4: It's really cool, you know for people listening when the 54 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 4: NFL high the American Bowl preseason games across the world 55 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 4: in the nineties and I think the Earlies as well. 56 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: This only happened once over here in Ireland. It happened 57 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 4: in London a lot, but it only happened once in Ireland. 58 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 4: And obviously mister Rooney, who's no longer with us, wanted 59 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 4: to bring the team over and it really was more 60 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 4: to the preseason game. You know, the family wanted to win. 61 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 4: The trophy was water for it was water for Crystal 62 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 4: and they were dead set and winning it. And I 63 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 4: think to the players, even when you talk to guys 64 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 4: like Cordell Stuart and twenty thirty years on from that game, 65 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 4: it's funny because I don't think there's too many players 66 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 4: that could remember certain preseason games, but they certainly remember 67 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 4: the time they went to Ireland. They took their they 68 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 4: took their friends over, they did their family over, and 69 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 4: they actually went over for the full week and spent 70 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 4: that entire time with the friends, family and the team. 71 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 4: And I think the biggest thing has changed. You know, 72 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 4: we had the chance to talk about this a few 73 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 4: months back, both on radio virtually but also when we 74 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 4: were at the NFL Combine. It's really the growth of 75 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 4: the game. I think they was upwards about thirty five 76 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 4: people are in nineteen ninety seven. I mean it was 77 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 4: six or seven hundred and five people alone in the 78 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 4: queue to get tickets to this game the week four. 79 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 4: So it's certainly, you know, it's a big jump, but 80 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 4: it was definitely start of something special in the term 81 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: of that it was that stabbing stone for the Stailers 82 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 4: to get back over here in an Ero where it's 83 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 4: just normal and I could play games regular season games internationally, 84 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 4: which for us guys over here is really cool. 85 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 3: So I'm sure it's in the article and I'm gonna 86 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 3: read it tonight when I get home. Actually, But so 87 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 3: you're saying it was actually very important for steel from 88 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 3: Steeler ownership to win that game. I mean, even though 89 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 3: it's a preseason game. I want that trophy. 90 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, my, So the legend has it. So I've had 91 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 4: the chance to speak to Gordal Shuart, a couple of 92 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 4: different players that were on the scene, and also coach 93 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 4: Kyer at like a Super Bowl media then a couple 94 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 4: of years ago, and they've all said the same that 95 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 4: mister Rooney wanted his wife to get the trophy to 96 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 4: bring it home. And I believe the trophy is still 97 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 4: in the trophy cabinet to this day. On it it 98 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 4: holds great pride and significance because it's funny, like in soccer, 99 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 4: in different sports over here, there may be like different 100 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 4: preseason tournaments, trophies and stuff, but I guess when it's 101 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 4: American football and in terms of the NFL, it is 102 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 4: different than it's something that really does sound out. So 103 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 4: it's something that you can look back on the year 104 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 4: on the year and really see the significance and how 105 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 4: much it means to the organization. It will be awesome 106 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 4: to see them maybe try and bring it over and 107 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 4: when the game is sound over here, maybe in some way, 108 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 4: but who knows what can happen. 109 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 2: Nick, We'll just keep you for a few more minutes here. 110 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: We really appreciate your time and we know that you 111 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 2: know the these phone calls are not the easiest or 112 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 2: cheapest things to do internationally as well, So I don't 113 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 2: know it's you know this. This has been an incredible 114 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: offseason for the Steelers. I mean from DK Metcalf to 115 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers to the the Menca Ramsey, John U Trade, 116 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: the T. J. Watt contract extension, the Omar Khan contract extension. 117 00:05:54,480 --> 00:06:01,559 Speaker 2: And I'm probably forgetting a few things. What or maybe 118 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: who are you most excited to see when you get 119 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 2: out here to camp? What are you looking for? 120 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: Or just the short answer Rogers go a little further 121 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 3: than that. If it's just. 122 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 4: Rogers, right, I'll tell you what. I'll give you a 123 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 4: little international still in terms of Rogers, I think, and 124 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 4: this goes for everybody listening. In terms of in the 125 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 4: US yes, the game's international, and there's a game in 126 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 4: Week four in Ireland, but you know, you potentially had 127 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 4: a guy understanding there that's going to go into his 128 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 4: fourth game. He played two games in London, one with 129 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 4: Green Bay one of the New York Jets. He played 130 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 4: in Mexico as well for Green Bay, so he knows 131 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: what it's like even that DHD is now obviously he's 132 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 4: very experienced, but he knows what it's like to go 133 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 4: over there, to handle of pressure in those different circumstances. 134 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 4: And it's important to say that because that game that 135 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 4: he played, I was there in London. It was a 136 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 4: Giants against the Packers. He lost that game. The atmosphere 137 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 4: was electric, so we had that sort of experience to 138 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 4: do that. Obviously, when you bring a guy like Rogers in, 139 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 4: it's unbelievable and I'm really excited to see what you 140 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 4: can do, not just you know, at the start of 141 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 4: the season in Dublin in Week four, but really down 142 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 4: the stretch and to see what, like just generally how 143 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 4: the team can get on in the later weeks of 144 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 4: the season as you obviously hope to make a push 145 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,679 Speaker 4: for a deeper role in the playoffs and the AFC. 146 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 4: I love Dkmatcuff. That really I think brings a difference. 147 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,679 Speaker 3: Person. I can tell you that watching him in person 148 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 3: is really something. 149 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I look, I can't wait to see him. I mean, 150 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 4: I know he's a fast guy, and just I think 151 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 4: it's going to hit us all when just when we 152 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 4: get to like what we're sitting in July twenty's, we're 153 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 4: what twelve thirteen days out from this game against the Jags, Like, 154 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 4: I just can't wait to see a bit of action. 155 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 4: To be honest with you, but I think certainly not 156 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 4: to speak for every Seeders fan or for every NFL 157 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 4: fan over here. You know a lot of people, you know, 158 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 4: the Seelers are on the talk of a lot of 159 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 4: people over here. Now, people are you know, really putting 160 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 4: them up in their parlankings when it comes to the AFC. 161 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 4: So that's only a good thing, you. 162 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: Know, absolutely is, absolutely is, and it's it's going to be. 163 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 2: It's there's again just every entering every football season is exciting, 164 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: but just so many storylines to sink your teeth into 165 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: as a Steeler fan as we get going here, Matt, 166 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: you had one more for before we let them here. 167 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, Mick, and maybe it's just because I'm here and 168 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 3: I'm watching these guys, but I am getting more and 169 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: more and more excited about this defense. And part of 170 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 3: it's because the Ramsey trade. Part of it's because I'm 171 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 3: seeing harmon the first round pick in person, I'm seeing 172 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 3: very few weaknesses to this defense. I think they can 173 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 3: play a different style. I think they can control the 174 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 3: line of scrimmage, and I've even thrown out that it 175 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 3: has the potential and I don't mean it's lightly to 176 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 3: be the best defense in the entire league. Is that 177 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 3: something you agree with? 178 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 4: I definitely agree with me, And I think sometimes we 179 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 4: can be limited to what we see in camp, but 180 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 4: then we all situation where that's what it is there 181 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 4: and Dan, but when we hob these three preseason games 182 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 4: not to get in and even for the guys if 183 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 4: you're gonna have harm them, but even guys, second first 184 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 4: string guys, not defense, give them reps where they can 185 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: actually get to the point and be like, Okay, I'm 186 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 4: ready to rock and roll. Look, I think when you 187 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 4: talk about the offseason, it's not that it's uncertain that 188 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 4: he with different guys coming in the night. It's great 189 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 4: to get TG locked in. I think that's a big one. 190 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 4: Lie On, like as much as as key as a 191 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 4: player he is for the Steelers, like, it's great to 192 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 4: have him locked in and you can sort of build 193 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 4: around not but certainly, like I'm really excited to see 194 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 4: what Harmon can do for this defense. But when you're 195 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 4: in that AFC North's division, you always know you're gonna 196 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 4: go up against like ridiculous offenses. And we know how 197 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 4: good Baltimore can the end of the day, and when 198 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 4: you're gonna go on the rule to Cleveland, going to 199 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 4: rule to Baltimore and going to rule the Cincinnati when, 200 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 4: like you know, when you start again. I certainly have 201 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 4: a confidence in this defense to make big players. But 202 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,959 Speaker 4: I think as well, I think what's gonna hopefully be 203 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 4: good for them, I really hope. I'm sure you guys 204 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 4: would agree. I think we're gonna see the offense on 205 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 4: the field a lot more this offseason as well. So look, 206 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 4: it's gonna be a great to see how the balance 207 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 4: goes between both. Definitely agree with I think this defense 208 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 4: could be top three, top five and league the season, 209 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 4: absolutely lose on it all. 210 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: Gonna be a lot of fun to see it all 211 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 2: come together.

We 235 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 2: were talking about how we can't wait to get over there, 236 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 2: and I said to him, I was like, I just 237 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 2: can't wait to go to Guinness. Like it's my favorite 238 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 2: beer in the world. I can't wait to go.

It's Guinness, and they're on the 241 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: same street in Dublin, which is pretty cool. And he 242 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 2: told me, oh, if you like Guinness here in the States, 243 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 2: just wait till you have a couple in Dublin.

We have got plenty more to get 246 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 2: to as we roll along here. But that was a 247 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: lot of fun. Man. 248 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 3: Any time he's on, it's a blast and really knowledgeable kill. 249 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 3: He's very knowledgeable and not just the history, but also 250 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 3: knows football. I like how he brought up, you know. 251 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 2: Like for that preseason game they're twenty eight years ago, 252 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 2: it wasn't even a sellout. I mean like they're half 253 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:57,479 Speaker 2: half full. 254 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,080 Speaker 3: Like and now the demand is six or seven one 255 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 3: hundred thousand. 256 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 2: People Q for tickets, like man, that's like Taylor Swift numbers. 257 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: Exactly, exactly crazy. It's a long way away though. 258 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 2: And it is sixty three days in fact, to be exact. 259 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 2: As there's now a light rain falling here on campus 260 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 2: once again. But yeah, uh and again, I feel like 261 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 2: I'm doing like I'm being redundant in a way. But 262 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: every new football season is exciting. We're football fans. You 263 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,599 Speaker 2: get way less games. If hockey's your favorite sport or 264 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 2: basketball is your favorite sport, you get to see your 265 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 2: team play eighty two times a year. 266 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 3: If you missed one, you can live with it, you know. 267 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 2: If you're a Bucos fan, they play one hundred and 268 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 2: sixty two games a year. Like you get seventeen. You're 269 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 2: guaranteed seventeen meaningful games for the Steelers every year for 270 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 2: your favorite NFL team. That's it. Every year. There's excitement 271 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: every year, there's storylines, there's reason for optimism, there's reasons 272 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,599 Speaker 2: for pessimism. But like, I think, I can't remember it 273 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 2: being at a level that it's at right now in 274 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: my eight years around the team, and just I think, yeah, 275 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 2: growing as a Steelers. 276 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,719 Speaker 3: Fan, Yeah, there is a lot of enthusiasm coincidentally, we 277 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 3: had the general manager on here is responsible, not alone, 278 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 3: but you know, obviously a key, key, key component to 279 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 3: the roster building. And I did not foresee this much 280 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 3: change with just the players that we're going to be here, 281 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: you know, and turning the big names and the trades 282 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 3: and things of that nature, as well as being really 283 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 3: excited for the future in terms of just future assets 284 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 3: and all those things as well. I think it's good stuff. 285 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I get that there's a lot of people 286 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 3: frustrated with the lack of playoff wins lately. I understand that, 287 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: and the standard here is higher than that. Yeah, you're 288 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 3: out here too, But don't think they're just sitting on 289 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: their hands going we're happy to make the playoffs. 290 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: Not at all, No, not at all. And that's where 291 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 2: I think too, Like they haven't done the definition of 292 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 2: insanity thing. They have no turning over new leafs, doing 293 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 2: things a little bit differently, getting a little bit more aggressive. 294 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: And yeah, I mean, listen, I don't think anybody would 295 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 2: guess that there was ever a possibility they were going 296 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 2: to trade make a Fitzpatrick. 297 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: That. 298 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 2: I mean, there's there's been a lot of those type. 299 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 3: Of things, Like I threw out, you know, hey, I 300 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 3: think Ramsey could be a real possible. I've been talking 301 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 3: about that, and I talked about it at Mini camp, 302 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: you know, like, but I never thought was even a 303 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 3: slight as possible, right. 304 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 2: Right, and as I I don't think many people did, 305 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: or even if anybody did. So it's an exciting time 306 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: to be a Steelers fan, and uh we are going 307 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 2: to I think even take it to another level next 308 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 2: week when the pads go on and we continue to 309 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: get closer and closer to that first preseason game Friday 310 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: Night lights a couple more big milestones along the way here, Matt, 311 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 2: let's get to a break and we come back on 312 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 2: the other side.

Everyone's fine, well, your vehicle, except for my 348 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: vehicle and another person's vehicle in the parking lot. But 349 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 2: it could have been worse. Everyone's safe, everyone's fine. We'll 350 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: get it figured out. It's just an annoying problem to 351 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 2: have right now, your day off this time of year. Yeah, exactly. 352 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: But I will get two nights in my own bed 353 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 2: as well too, which is much needed at this point 354 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: as well. Some around the league news for you, Matthew. 355 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 2: And I've got a three or four different things here 356 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: I think pretty significant that I want to kick around 357 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 2: with you. The first we'll start with formerly of this parish, MIKEA. Fitzpatrick. 358 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 2: He has signed a revised contract with the Miami Dolphins, 359 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 2: moving up two million bucks in this year's move. That 360 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 2: will clear up about eleven million dollars in cap space 361 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 2: for Miami. So it's a two million dollar raise for 362 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: this year for Mega Fitzpatrick and a two million dollar 363 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 2: raise next year. In twenty twenty six, but at the 364 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 2: same time freeze. It's kind of that same like it 365 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 2: sounds weird, but in a way, extending TJ freeze up 366 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 2: some cap space right now for the Steelers. Similar type 367 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: move for Mega and the Dolphins, while it sounds like 368 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: they're still going to work on a longer term contract 369 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 2: as well. 370 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 3: Okay, the Dolphins didn't dislike John U. Smith or Ramsey, 371 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 3: they just have awful cap situation and what they did, 372 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 3: and it was before they resigned to when they made 373 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 3: like the Tyreek Hill trade, they kind of pushed all 374 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 3: their chips in the middle to go win a Super Bowl, 375 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 3: which I've I'm sure you've heard two, but which just 376 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 3: Steelers would do that more often most times doesn't most 377 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 3: times it doesn't work. Most times it doesn't work. It 378 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 3: didn't work for them, and now the you know, they 379 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 3: got to pay the fiddler a little bit, so they 380 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 3: couldn't extend John who as the Steelers did. Ramsey had 381 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 3: to go and so in order to pull that off, 382 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 3: I think the Steelers also had the light and send 383 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 3: some contract back to Miami and that was Meca and 384 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: they're moving their money around as well. But there was 385 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 3: even speculation that after Miami traded for Minca that another 386 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 3: team could take him off their hands. Right, you have 387 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 3: to trade deadline or whatever. He might not be long 388 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 3: for Miami, right because their cap situation's so poor. Now. 389 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 3: I don't know if this move makes that easier or not, 390 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 3: but I do know that it frees up a media 391 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 3: cap space, which they absolutely need. 392 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 2: They certainly do. And uh and that makes a lot 393 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 2: of sense when you kind of lay it out that way. 394 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: Speaking of contracts and speaking of big money chargers, in 395 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 2: left tackle Rashawn Slater reach that it's on day on 396 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 2: a four year, one hundred and fourteen million dollar contract 397 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 2: extension that includes a record ninety two million dollars guaranteed 398 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 2: for an offensive lineman and makes him the highest paid 399 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 2: offensive lineman in league history. 400 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 3: So I know a lot of people were, man, how 401 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 3: can you spend that much on TJ? Watt? And you 402 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 3: know all this guaranteed money getting thrown around. First of 403 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 3: I was going to tell you, and this applies to 404 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 3: all the above, the league isn't really really really healthy, 405 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 3: like as healthy as it's ever been. 406 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: You're talking about financially, yes, oh my good, yes. 407 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 3: You know inflation salary cap is going up very very quickly. 408 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 3: All these teams are realizing that, all these agents and 409 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 3: players are realizing it, and Slater, hopefully if Atanu and 410 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 3: Jones are in the same mold. He was drafted two 411 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 3: years before Joe Alt so it's not back to back, 412 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 3: but if they're one of the few teams that have 413 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 3: taken tackles extremely high, which is a great financial move, 414 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 3: and you never let them leave. I mean, quality tackles 415 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 3: never hit the open market. And just some scouting notes 416 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 3: on Slater, he was a great player at Northwestern. He 417 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 3: didn't end up at Ohio State because he didn't look 418 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 3: He's not six seven, he didn't have super long arms, 419 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 3: and he's one of these guys that people looked at, going, yeah, 420 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 3: he's a little on the smaller side and not prototypical tackle. 421 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 3: Is he a guard? Is he a tackle? But I 422 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 3: love his feed and everything else about him. He's been 423 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 3: phenomenal for the charge. Yes, I mean he's definitely a 424 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 3: top seven or eight offensive tackle in this league and ascending. 425 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 3: So you pay those guys all day long. 426 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 2: Yep, yep, smart business. 427 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 3: I hope the same thing happens with the two first rounders. 428 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 2: Hi exactly right. Hopefully, like just like they're hoping in 429 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:34,239 Speaker 2: La now that a couple of years from now they 430 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,959 Speaker 2: have two highs. Right, great, that means it hit. 431 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: That means it well gladly. 432 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 2: It means for a decade you don't have to worry 433 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,719 Speaker 2: about position. That's hard to find exactly. 434 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, they's almost impossible to find. 435 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: Uh. Some other breaking news here actually, just in the 436 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: last twenty minutes or so far, Adam Schefter of somebody 437 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 2: else formerly of this parish, who we actually just mentioned 438 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 2: a few minutes ago, Kenny Pickett injured his hamstring near 439 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 2: the end of Brown's practice, as is expected to be 440 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 2: reevaluated later this week per sources, at least in the 441 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 2: short term. Now, more reps for Flacco, Gabriel Andrador. 442 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 3: Okay, at first I heard this, who knows how serious 443 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 3: it is, but the reps thing is what sticks with me. Yeah, 444 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I think this is poor management by the 445 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 3: Browns total, because you would think Flacco is the leader 446 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,239 Speaker 3: in the clubhouse for opening day starter, not that he's 447 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 3: a superstar anymore. He's been running with the ones, and 448 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 3: you would also think he needs the least reps at 449 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 3: his age to acclimate the league. But he was a 450 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 3: cult last year. He wasn't a Brown, even though he 451 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 3: was a Brown recently. You would want to get him 452 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 3: a lot of reps if you plan on winning that 453 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 3: first game of the year and being competitive early in 454 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 3: the season. You traded for Pickett, and they gave up 455 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 3: some substantial draft capital. Wasn't just a throwaway, you know, 456 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 3: take this guy and we'll swap seventh round picked move. 457 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 3: So they must have liked him at some point, and 458 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 3: then you draft two other quarterbacks. I just don't know, 459 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 3: Like if if they were practicing on the field in 460 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 3: front of us and we were doing three hours of 461 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 3: radio of Brown's conversation, I think so much of it 462 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 3: would be how much how'd they divvy out the reps 463 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 3: for these four quarterbacks today total compared to yesterday and 464 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 3: the next day and all that? Because and I don't 465 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 3: know what the right answer is. 466 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 2: So much to go around. 467 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 3: I don't know how Stefanski does that properly, you know. 468 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 3: And how do you develop two young quarterbacks and get 469 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 3: your old guy ready? You can't letting pick It's at 470 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: least have a chance because you like them two months ago, 471 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 3: trade for him, right exactly? 472 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes no sense. 473 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 3: It makes no sense, right, there's just no logistical way 474 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 3: to do that. 475 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: Well, you can have a quarterback competition between two people, Sure, 476 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 2: you can also get three guys work. We've seen, we're 477 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 2: seeing that with Aaron Rodgers. 478 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 3: We mentioned Howard's getting one rep in uh seven shocks. 479 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: Have a four way competition, no chance. 480 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 3: Right right right, And you're not doing any of them 481 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 3: probably proper service in terms of development, especially the two 482 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 3: rookies who imagine the quarterback right right right, Like you. 483 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 2: Just drafted these rookies. Now is the time to get 484 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 2: these guys. 485 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 3: Reps, tons and even the priests season. How do you 486 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 3: divvy it out? 487 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 2: All right? You're each going to get a quarter fellas. 488 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 3: Right like here, I bet Howard gets a ton of 489 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 3: preseason stack he'll get. I don't think Rudolph needs him. 490 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: I don't think Rogers they want them, or he wants. 491 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: I'd be shocked if Will Howard doesn't get more preseason 492 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 2: action than any Browns quarterback. 493 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:14,640 Speaker 3: On the roster. 494 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's not great for their development. 495 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: I mean I think he'll get more preseason reps or 496 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 3: preseason snaps than all the other Serio quarterbacks could behind. 497 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,719 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I would agree Cowboys signing tight end Jake 498 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 2: Ferguson to a four year contract extension today. Fifty two 499 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 2: million dollars, thirty million of that guaranteed. Uh, where's he 500 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: kind of ranking your tiers of NFL tight ends? 501 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 3: Quality player? Not a lot of downside to that contract. 502 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 3: I think it's similar to John News in terms of 503 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 3: ap Y. They're not top tier guys in terms of 504 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 3: you know, the best five tight ends out there. They're 505 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 3: not breaking the bank. That's one of the positions that's 506 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 3: still a bargain, you know. I mean, the tight ends 507 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 3: do not advance very fast in terms of economics, despite 508 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 3: them being some game changers. I know, I'm kind of 509 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,959 Speaker 3: excited for Dallas, to be honest with you. I mean, 510 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 3: I think Pickings could have a big year there. 511 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 2: The way that they're going to throw that ball around. Yeah, 512 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: and there's going to be a tension on guys like Ceede, 513 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 2: Lamb and Ferguson. Right, I think you're right with Dak. 514 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: Prescott's a high quality player that can. 515 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: Be one of those where he puts up some big 516 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 2: numbers this year and everyone's kind of going, what were 517 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: the Steelers doing good? 518 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 3: I absolutely think like, but they'll probably be in a 519 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 3: couple of my fantasy. 520 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 2: Teams, you know what, I be a perfect situation for him. 521 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got a lot to prove and he's hit 522 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,239 Speaker 3: the market and be very expensive potentially. But I mean, 523 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: they they throw the ball on average like one hundred 524 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 3: times more than the Steelers do per year. That's a 525 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 3: big deal that ends up. But it's more targets, more 526 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: targets a year. That's even if he's the two there 527 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 3: compared to the one here's big. I think they're I 528 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 3: think they're a better team than people give them credit for. 529 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 3: I mean, at least two year. 530 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,959 Speaker 2: If they're all things considered health wise, like they've got 531 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 2: a decent roster. 532 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 3: They do, and they put a lot in their ow line. 533 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 3: Dak got hurt last year and was didn't blow you 534 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 3: away before that, But just two years ago he was 535 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 3: second in the m v P race, right, People forget that. 536 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 3: I mean he was the runner up in m v P. 537 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: He is one of those guys like kind of reminds 538 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 2: me of a Matt Ryan was like, like people people 539 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: all the time are just like guy's trash. 540 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 3: No, he's not great career. 541 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 2: He's not walking into the Hall of Fame one day. 542 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: But like he is, without a doubt, one of the 543 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,199 Speaker 2: best quarterbacks on the planet. 544 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 3: Oh yeah. One other thing that hurts him most is 545 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 3: he's the Cowboys quarterback and he's not Stabucher Akman. I 546 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 3: mean that was a Romo curse too, Like, yeah, we 547 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 3: like you, but we like that guy better that we 548 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 3: want a bunch of super Bowls with. I'm like, oh, yeah, 549 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 3: they're in the Hall Fame, you know, right. 550 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: You're gonna if you're gonna be the face of the Yankees, 551 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 2: you better be Aaron Judge exactly, like centerfielder for the Yankees, 552 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 2: and the face of the Lakers, you better be Kobe 553 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:52,679 Speaker 2: or Lebron. 554 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, like exactly exactly. It's just a different world. 555 00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it absolutely is. Cardinals cornerback Starling Tom tore his 556 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 2: acl according to Adam Scheffter earlier today, Young, I. 557 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 3: Mean he's not not a superstar, not an integral part. 558 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 2: They mean, they don't have a ton going on there. 559 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 3: No, no, no, they really invested in their D line. Yeah. So, 560 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: but you just hate to see at this time of 561 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 3: the year somebody whose season's already over all the work 562 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 3: they've put in. 563 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then last kind of one that I had 564 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 2: on the gauntlet to run through here with you, Matt. 565 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 2: After holding out for the first four days of Commander's 566 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 2: training camp, Terry Kloran is back, but immediately put on 567 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 2: the pup list. You think they get something done with him, 568 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 2: or you think he's on a different team sooner. 569 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 3: No, I don't think he gets traded. They were they 570 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 3: were final four team last year. At your young quarterback 571 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 3: that you're so excited about. That's just his top guy, 572 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 3: without question. But he's been in league a while. I mean, 573 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 3: he came in with Metcalf in that class, but he 574 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 3: was an older prospect at the time, coming off his 575 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 3: best season. They've invested a lot in the offense. Tunsul 576 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 3: from pick a tackle traded for Debo. I think it 577 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 3: could be one of the best offenses in the league. 578 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 3: But he's as important as anyone not named Daniels, you know. 579 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 3: So I don't know that he gets traded. I assume 580 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 3: this move only just means he's not gonna get fine 581 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 3: now because we're sitting out. It's a mandatory rhythm or 582 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 3: something A hundred even it's at least that yeah, real. 583 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 2: Quick on the Commanders, it's hard to say I mean 584 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 2: the only way step forward this season is to be 585 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl, right, But do you expect them 586 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: to be about that good again or which maybe they 587 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 2: take a step back. 588 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 3: I don't. I mean history really shows when you take 589 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 3: a massive mother may I step forward, nine out of 590 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: ten teams take a one third of the step back, 591 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 3: you know, like you take three steps forward and then 592 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 3: maybe one step one step back. Yeah, And I think 593 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:55,239 Speaker 3: their defense is very questionable. Besides our quarterback. They're by 594 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 3: far the oldest team in the league. That's a bad 595 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 3: way to build. And I don't love that they as 596 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 3: some as a lot of teams do. They had four 597 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 3: games where they got a little lucky, you know, yeah, 598 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 3: hail Mary one someone missed a kick at the very 599 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 3: end that they should have made and they didn't. And 600 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 3: they like set records for they've made like eighty five 601 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 3: percent of their fourth down attempts. Like that's gonna go 602 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 3: back to sixty, you know, Like sure, And I love Daniels, 603 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 3: I'd love to build around him, but I bet they 604 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 3: go backwards, like I might take the Cowboys ahead of them. 605 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: They go backwards, and they only win five games this year, not. 606 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 3: To where they were right but they got Daniels because 607 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 3: they earned the second. 608 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 2: Pick in the draft, you know, which They've done a 609 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 2: lot of right. 610 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 3: And you go from second pick in the draft to 611 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 3: a final four team, that's a massive jump. That's almost 612 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 3: always going to rebound the other way. 613 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 2: Do you think the NFC East could be a three 614 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 2: playoff team division? 615 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: Maybe? But the North is so good, you know what 616 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 3: I mean, It's hard to get down. 617 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 2: The set probably definitely will be a three, you know. 618 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 3: I don't think the South will be. Could the Niners 619 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 3: come back big? In the Niners and Rams be in 620 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 3: the mix? I think it might be harder to get 621 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 3: in the in the dance in the af in the 622 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 3: NFC than the NFC. But I think the best teams 623 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 3: are still in the AFC and the best quarterback is 624 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 3: quarterbacks are definitely in the NFC. I think AFC. 625 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: Yes, I'm with you on that. I think the top 626 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 2: tier of the a f C is. 627 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 3: Better, but I think you can Bills Ralays. 628 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 2: Depth in the in the NFC is a little bit better. 629 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 3: I could make the case probably for nine teams in 630 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 3: the NFC or ten that are playoff worthy. And I 631 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 3: didn't see Washington coming last year either. I mean there's always. 632 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: There's always that guy like worst the first type. And 633 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 2: I know they didn't win the division the Eagles did, 634 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 2: but get you get what I'm saying. 635 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 3: But Houston did the year before they both had the 636 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 3: second pick in the draft, and then Skyrock. 637 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 2: You know what's funny. I think I asked you this 638 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 2: starting up mini camp now that like it's you know, 639 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 2: groundhog Day in a lot of ways, do when we 640 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: do this stuff, would the Niners be your candidate this 641 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 2: year to like do the worst the first thing? And 642 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 2: I know that's a kind of exception, but it's not 643 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 2: like they've been down for a bunch of straight years. 644 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 3: They were destroyed by last year and with injuries. Part 645 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 3: of that's because when you're built so top heavy like 646 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 3: they are, and that those two guy loses, it hits 647 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 3: you harder. You know, the depth isn't there. But yeah, 648 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 3: I think they're probably a nine to ten win team again, 649 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 3: or at least in the mix, you know. 650 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Only other thing I saw here that I 651 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: was laughing about was Jared Verse saying that he worked 652 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 2: out with Aaron Donald and that guy's a psychopath. 653 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 3: Wow, But Donald's still working out. 654 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: Versus probably like ready to like do some drills and everything, 655 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 2: and Aaron Donald pulls out his knives and it's like, 656 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 2: we're gonna work on those, right, I will never forget. 657 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: Like we tell a lot of these cool like almost 658 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: the fly on the wall type of things that we 659 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 2: get the witness from market. 660 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 3: I have a feeling you're gonna tell the story I 661 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 3: was about to toe, not that we are even together, 662 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 3: Please go ahead. 663 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 2: One for me was this was the pre COVID days, 664 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 2: so it would have been eighteen or nineteen summertime, and 665 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 2: I don't remember what we were down there doing, but 666 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 2: it was a broadcast for something. 667 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 3: Where have been the draft or something like that. Scrolling 668 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 3: through the indoor alling through. 669 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: The indoor pit facility, Pitt Steelers indoor practice facility, and 670 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 2: Aaron Donald is in there with his trainer with big, 671 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 2: huge butcher knives in his hands, working on hand placement. 672 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 3: That's exactly what I couldn't get out of there faster, right, right, right, 673 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 3: it's a long walk to get past them, one. 674 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 2: Hundred and twenty yards. 675 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 3: Who's in you're working out?

You know 679 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 2: you got those knife blades. You're not going to be 680 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,719 Speaker 2: missing with your hand placement when you're about to cut 681 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: your wrist. 682 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 3: Maybe the Rams can convince him to make a playoff 683 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 3: run for the last four weeks of the season or something. 684 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 3: Maybe Steelers good. 685 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 2: I tell you what, they had a pretty good team 686 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: last year.

Matt, it has been fun. 723 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 2: I always enjoy, you know, getting to you know, things 724 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 2: like training camp and the combine and draft and stuff. 725 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 2: When you and I get to do radio together. This 726 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 2: is the most generic thirty thousand foot view thing, but 727 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 2: standouts from the and and again it's it's a different 728 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 2: kind of standout in these settings. It's more the athleticism, 729 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 2: the skill, those type of things standouts in your mind 730 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 2: after four. 731 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 3: Days a lot of new guys, Metcalf, Ramsey, you know, 732 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 3: just watching their size, speed, combination, the way that they 733 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 3: play the game, the way Ramsey breaks on the ball, 734 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 3: his usage all over the field is something we talked 735 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 3: about with with Omar and routines right right right right right, 736 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 3: big personalities, big players, you know, big careers, and you 737 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 3: can see why Metcalf's a total freak. But really it's 738 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 3: a d line, you know. I mean, that's a wonderful unit. 739 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 3: I still don't think a lot of our listeners understand 740 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 3: how good that group is and can be, just because 741 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 3: the production was sack. Production wasn't through the roof and 742 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 3: you throw Harmon in the mix. He looks like an immediate. 743 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 3: I think they're really excited about it. 744 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 2: I think he looks like he's primed for a special rookie. 745 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 3: Season, absolutely, but a lot of physicality to the letter 746 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 3: of the law and intensity, and it seems like a 747 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 3: sort of quiet optimism. You know, a lot of a 748 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 3: lot of the national pundits or this is another maybe 749 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 3: they win eight or nine games and won and done, 750 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 3: and I think there's more we might be. Don't don't 751 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 3: forget about us mentality going on behind the scenes, you know. 752 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 2: I think so too. 753 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 3: Pride pride, Yes, yes, I agree with that. 754 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 2: And I think you heard Aaron Rodgers when he was 755 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: on NFL Network yesterday kind of along those lines. He said, 756 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 2: you know, I typically think there's anywhere from six to 757 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,439 Speaker 2: eight teams that can win a Super Bowl, and given year, Yeah, 758 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 2: he's like, this year in the NFL feels like it 759 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 2: might be maybe even closer to ten or twelve. And 760 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 2: you know, he's like, I hope that that we are. 761 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 2: I think we are one of those ten or twelve teams. 762 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 2: And listen, that's not to say like there's the Super 763 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 2: Bowl favorites category. 764 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 3: The teams that just has odds on these things. 765 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 2: I mean You're right, the teams that if they're not 766 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl, their fan base is going to 767 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 2: be disappointed. Eagles, Lions, Chiefs, Sure, Ravens. Maybe Bills in 768 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 2: there as well too. 769 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 770 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 2: That's you know, that's that's five right there, real quick. 771 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 3: I did a podcast on this the other day too, 772 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 3: and I'm not saying, like over the last five years, 773 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: where the Steelers have had multiple quarterbacks and the Ravens 774 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,959 Speaker 3: have had Lamar, who's an MVP type guy, the Ravens 775 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 3: have been better in that stretch. 776 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 2: I mean, they've been Steelers command the head to head 777 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 2: record equation. 778 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 3: And that's important, there's no question about it. But the 779 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 3: Ravens have had more success wins yet. Yeah, and I 780 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 3: think they're a wonderful organization, to be honest with you. 781 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 3: But they've been the better team over the last half 782 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 3: decade or so, clearly, and they definitely have had the 783 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 3: better quarterback play clearly. But Ravens fans are getting frustrated too, 784 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 3: you know, like we win one playoff game and then 785 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 3: we're eliminated. You know, we're here. It's like, well, we 786 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 3: get eliminated in the first playoff game. You know, like 787 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 3: no one's ever happy is right point, you know. 788 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,800 Speaker 2: No doubt, Like Chiefs and Only One fans are probably 789 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 2: the only ones who aren't complaining. 790 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 3: Right, exactly right, exactly, I mean, Builds fans are hitting 791 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 3: the same thing. Our defense falls part of playoffs every year, 792 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 3: you know, Like. 793 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,439 Speaker 2: Bengals fans are like, we got Joe Burrow and Jamoar 794 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 2: Chase and we can't even get in the playoffs. 795 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 3: Right, This defense is horrible. Ownership's not doing what, you know, Like. 796 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 2: Lions fans like, we're so close, but we can't get 797 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 2: over that hump. 798 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 3: And then they just lost both their coaches, assistant coaches 799 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 3: and a lot of you know, and and got hit 800 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 3: hard in free agency too, and their stud center retires. 801 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 3: Like it's gonna be a pivotal year in Detroit. Two, 802 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 3: No doubt we could be sitting in a week eight going. Boy, 803 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 3: that was a really good story for a franchise that's 804 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 3: really won nothing in our lifetimes. They don't have six 805 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 3: super Bowl trophies over the over a corner road. 806 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 2: They went thirty years without a playoff. They went from 807 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: Barry Sanders until a couple of years ago without a playoff. 808 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 3: There's a chance we're going that was a nice story 809 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 3: for three or four years, but their windows slamming shut 810 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 3: quick or maybe win a super Bowl, you know what 811 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 3: I mean. But like sure, I'm just saying that that 812 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 3: the bar is so high to make a fan base 813 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,439 Speaker 3: oh truly happy. I mean it's brutal and you it's fun. 814 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 2: Like this is another thing that Motes has shared before 815 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 2: on these airwaves. I think it was, you know, his 816 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 2: all four years that he was in Buffalo, they had 817 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 2: a losing record all season, right, this was you know, 818 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 2: this was when the Bills were still kind of one 819 00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 2: of those laughing stocks of before before McDermot and company 820 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 2: got out and around it. 821 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, between Kelly and Allen, it's pretty bad, really bad. 822 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Motes. I think it was the third year 823 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,320 Speaker 2: he was there. They went seven and nine. Like the 824 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 2: first year won three games, second year one four game, 825 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 2: I mean really bad. He was like my third year 826 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 2: we went seven and nine and they were like ready 827 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 2: to throw us a parade, like they were. 828 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 3: So passion. 829 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 2: Base. They just didn't want a terrible team. There's seven 830 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 2: and nine in the division with Tom Brady and the Patriots, 831 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: Like we'll take it all day, you know what I mean. 832 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 2: We're building towards something, whereas somewhere Baltimore, Pittsburgh, you go 833 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 2: seven and nine. Everyone's got everyone's looking for new jobs. 834 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 2: And I do this. I like this exercise because I think, again, 835 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: everyone just assumes it's so easy you can get there. 836 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 2: Everyone's gonna do it. If you said, like the last 837 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 2: five years referencing Lamar and the Ravens and in twenty 838 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 2: twenty five years ago, if I would have said to 839 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 2: you at some point, Josh Allen gonna win a super Bowl? 840 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 3: Yeah we've done this, Yeah, yeah, Lamar. 841 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,399 Speaker 2: Jackson gonna win a super Bowl? Sure, yes, are gonna 842 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 2: win a super Bowl. 843 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 3: These are like all time greats on the path they're. 844 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 2: On, Okay, like they're still waiting. Chances are the Rogers 845 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 2: has won and it's been and it's been to one. 846 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 3: Right right right? I mean Ben getting two is a lot. 847 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and so what that That's exactly where I'm going 848 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 2: with this. 849 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 3: If the day Trevor Lawrence is drafted, do you think 850 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,399 Speaker 3: we win a Super Bowl? Yeah? 851 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 2: Probably right now you could win. But that means somebody 852 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 2: else isn't getting one that year. I know, And I 853 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 2: think right now, Matt, you think you think Pat Mahomes 854 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: wins another super Bowl in his career. Yeah, there's a 855 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,240 Speaker 2: there's another one that doesn't go to Burrow or Allen Jackson. 856 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,959 Speaker 3: You know, like I'm feeling a lot less strong about 857 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 3: Burrow winning another one totally. I mean, I still am 858 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 3: gonna be like yes on Alan and Lamar. 859 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 2: Five years ago when they were coming off of a 860 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 2: Super Bowl appearance in And. 861 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 3: That's not a knock on him at all. It's just boy, 862 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 3: be like, yeah, they'll get one. 863 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 2: It's as much as I hate to say it, I 864 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 2: don't want to see one, but they'll get one. Well, 865 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 2: they never have and now the last two years they 866 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 2: haven't been gone to the. 867 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,919 Speaker 3: Postseason right, right, exactly, right, exactly. 868 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 2: And so that's always one of those things that I 869 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 2: find for like, oh, Connor McDavid will get a Stanley Cup. 870 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 3: Okay maybe maybe, and he's tremendous. 871 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 2: We like them, right, will be back, Ma'll be back, right, 872 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 2: He'll be back. 873 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 3: He'll get that four. 874 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 2: It also does too sometimes it works the opposite way, 875 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 2: where right when people write you off, they're never gonna 876 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 2: win one. Matthew Stafford's great Matthew Stafford and alexandrovitchkin Oh 877 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,879 Speaker 2: they're never gonna win the big one. They finally get 878 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 2: it done after people think so that does lost a 879 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 2: ton of way, lost a ton of them.

That's just, 882 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 2: I think, something that's important to keep it like, like 883 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,919 Speaker 2: you mentioned, it's very hard to be happy, of course, 884 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 2: but let's let's keep everything in a reasonable sit. 885 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 3: And no, I know we're getting up against it here too, 886 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:58,760 Speaker 3: but the NFL awards thirteen playoff wins the year between 887 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 3: thirty two teams, thirteen of them are gonna get a 888 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 3: playoff winner. 889 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 2: More so, like the Eagles won the Super Bowl last year, they. 890 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 3: Gonna get four or three. The super Bowl runner up 891 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 3: is gonna get three or two only. 892 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,720 Speaker 2: If they get it by Evan for everybody else exactly, 893 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 2: and we. 894 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 3: Got like six to give out between everybody else. I mean, 895 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 3: that's an excuse, but that's so simple. 896 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 2: But it's just the grade map, it's just the reapp right. 897 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 2: This was fun today.
