Now he's not happy, 15 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 5: right that he is not happy, and he wants everyone 16 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 5: to know how unhappy he is the way this first 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 5: season has gone with Vegas. According to Diana, tom Brady 18 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 5: was a big reason why they had to bring in 19 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 5: Chip Kelly to be the highest paid offensive coordinator in 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 5: the NFL. Obviously, they ended horribly. They had one of 21 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 5: the worst offensers in football. He's already been fired, accurding Diana, 22 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 5: though it's not just the offense that tom Brady's disappointed, 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 5: and it's the entire thing. Here's the problem with that though, 24 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,960 Speaker 5: guys number one tom Brady have to bring in Chip Kelly. 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,199 Speaker 5: Number two tom Brady cool. According to Pete Carroll, big 26 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 5: reason he's ears because tom Brady wanted him there. 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 3: They are too, and ten number three don't that retirement 28 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 3: fun they gave him. 29 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 5: Tom Brady had a big say in their new GM 30 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 5: being there this first season. Who's at his old college 31 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 5: roommate and they go to college together. That's their GM. 32 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 5: More frontatism they hit on their first round pick, we 33 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 5: think with Ashton Gent, we just haven't seen enough of 34 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 5: their second and fourth round ride receivers have both been 35 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 5: leap frogging in the depth chart by Tyler Lockett, who 36 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 5: was a free agent as recently as a month ago, 37 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 5: and their two third round offensive linemen. Both of them 38 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 5: cannot get on the field despite having the worst offensive 39 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 5: line in football. So it's all bad this season for 40 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 5: tom Brady and he's not happy about it. 41 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 3: I got even bigger news for you. Are you ready? 42 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 4: I think it's official that we can say that Tom 43 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 4: Brady's post playing career. 44 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 3: Has been a flop. Okay, on the air and in. 45 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 4: The front office, it has been a flop. I dare 46 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 4: you to challenge me on either one. I've watched him 47 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 4: on Fox not confident, doesn't sound like a polished broadcaster. 48 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 4: I get it, it's his first year on the air. 49 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 4: But I'm just saying, some guys and Kelvi whn you 50 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 4: notice have a flare right off the bat it You 51 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 4: can say whatever you want. Tony Romo ain't the flavor anymore. 52 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 4: But did he pop when he first game? 53 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 3: He popped? You notice how the fun this is unique? 54 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 4: It's different. He popped right away, That's all I'm saying. 55 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 4: And now Tom Brady and this Vegas Raiders what a disaster. Also, 56 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 4: Tom Brady is the mentor to Shador Sanders. They had 57 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 4: three opportunities, four opportunities to draft him. No, let's go 58 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 4: get Gino's pizza. Let's go get the oldest living coach 59 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 4: walking the earth. Let's go get Chip Tooth, Kelly, let's 60 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 4: go let what are you doing? It's so bad this 61 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,839 Speaker 4: and the Raiders aren't like, oh they're having a bout 62 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 4: when I was a bad game. They have been god 63 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 4: awful the whole season. And Tom Brady's dirty paws are 64 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 4: all over it. This is what he was brought in for. 65 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 4: That's where I'm at. His post playing career has been 66 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 4: a flop, a dud. It stinks and if I had 67 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 4: to put my hand on it, I'd have to wash. 68 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 3: You might have to bleach it, Michael, I saw it. Man. 69 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: Listen, this is a lesson again of when you bring 70 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: in a big name doesn't mean he's gonna bring in. 71 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: A big game or big change. Michael Jordan. 72 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: How many years was he a big time owner with 73 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: the Bobcats, then the Hornets, and nothing changed and nothing 74 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: has changed even since he sold his his stake in 75 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: the team, nothing changed. Magic Johnson comes back to be 76 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: the president of basketball for the Lakers, and aside from 77 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: getting Lebron, which he was Lebron as if Lebron wanted 78 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: to come to La, he was gonna come to La 79 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: a lot. He got rid of players that ended up 80 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: being really good, got rid of players that ended up 81 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: becoming All stars. Just because somebody's a big name doesn't 82 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: mean it's gonna bring a big change. And that's what's 83 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: happening with Tom Brady. Tom Brady, they brought in and 84 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: what happens is you get guys like that or women 85 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: like that, these big names, and they basically do what 86 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: they deemed that work for them. 87 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 3: Singularly. 88 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: Oh, well, when I was really good, Pete Carrall was 89 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: a good coach. I don't know, go get him. Hey, 90 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: when I was really good, this is my roommate. We 91 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: had a good chemistry together. I mean, that was my roommate. 92 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Bring him in. 93 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: You know when I was when I. 94 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 4: Do this, I knew, but back then your roommate was 95 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 4: just bringing in warm brownies from the store. 96 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: Or bringing in he was bringing in, you know from 97 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: the last night. Oh when to come to our room 98 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: hanging out with Hey, you know, bringing in the windy brownie. 99 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 1: You know what I said, I like that, Okay, heating 100 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: him up, heat him up. And so there's just it's rehashed. 101 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: Rob Like, he didn't come in and find some new way, 102 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: no creative, he didn't find his Sean McVay or something 103 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: like that. Everything he did was rehash. Let's go get 104 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: an old coach who my disorder cock could work. Go 105 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: get Pete Carroll ooh ooh, bringing his older quarterback that 106 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: was for most of his career, had a couple of 107 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: good years bringing Geno. Ooh, let's go get Chip Kelly, 108 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: who I always like to talk about with Lane Kiffin. 109 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: Can you get me somebody else who fails up? Chip 110 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: Kelly keeps failing up. At a certain point that we're 111 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: gonna realize that Oregon was a great thing for him, 112 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: but most of the things posts that have not worked 113 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: out for chip Kelly, and yet chip Kelly fails up. 114 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: He gets to a pro organization with the Raiders and 115 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: gets an opportunity again with taking ready pay and gets 116 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: paid a bunch of money to not be good again. 117 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly has been really good at not being good, 118 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: and so Tom Brady again. It's just another example of 119 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: it's no guarantee because a lot of the moves that 120 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: you would question about them have been his moves. So 121 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: there's been no real there's been no energy, there's no 122 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: been something that works. And you know this, when you're 123 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: rebuilding something, it's not that you have to automatically win 124 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: off the bat. It's that you're giving me the fan 125 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: something to hope for, like, oh, shoot, I can see 126 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: we're getting good, or I can see these young players, 127 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,799 Speaker 1: or let's say they got Dylan Gabriel or or should 128 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: do or Jackson Dart and you're like, okay, this is 129 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: first year. I like where our young quarterbacks coming next year? Okay, 130 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: we won three four games, we can maybe win six 131 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: to seven next year. Where you would be excited about that. 132 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: There's nothing that elictits excitement about the Raiders right now, 133 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: and that's what's disappointing about Tom and his selections and 134 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: all the business he's been doing with them. 135 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Odd Couple 136 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: with Rob and kelvin Washington weekdays at seven pm Eastern, 137 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 138 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 3: Hey, this is Jason McIntyre. 139 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 6: Join me every weekday morning on my podcast, Straight Fire 140 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 6: with Jason McIntyre.

And I'm gonna 199 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 4: be serious about this. He ain't one of those great 200 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 4: American stories where a god came from nothing, had everything 201 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 4: against him. His dad's a great former athlete. His dad 202 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: is a Hall of Famer in football and played Major 203 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 4: League baseball. His dad coached him all the way up 204 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 4: to major college football. 205 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 3: His dad he grew up rich. Really, that's the story 206 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 3: that you're so enthralled with. 207 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 4: I'm sorry it's not an anti Chador Sanders, but let's 208 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 4: not make it bigger than it really is. That's my point. 209 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 4: This is over the top, and I'm gonna be real 210 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 4: with you Kelvin here. I truly believe the reason that 211 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 4: people have gone on the deep end is they feel 212 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 4: that the man in quotes the man did something to 213 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 4: Shador because he was this confident black man. 214 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 3: That is really what this is all about. 215 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 4: Because all your draft nicks and now all these draft 216 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 4: people told you he was gonna be the first overall pick. 217 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 3: You ain't want to hear. 218 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 4: The reporting that went into it that said that he 219 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 4: came to these meetings unprepared, whatever, headphone's on, not paying attention. 220 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 3: Whatever, You don't want to hear that. 221 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 4: You didn't want to hear when people said, oh, well, 222 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 4: there was a memo in the NFL called and told everybody, 223 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 4: don't draft him. We're gonna show this this young kids 224 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 4: something at all and knock him down the side. But 225 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 4: when they did reporting, it said that the Ravens called 226 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 4: for him, the Eagles called for him, and he said no, 227 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 4: he didn't want to go to those teams. So this 228 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 4: whole notion is ridiculous. I'm dead serious. I threw up, 229 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 4: you want I laugh on joke all the time. I 230 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 4: literally threw up in my mouth. To hear him say 231 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 4: that he's the most powerful man than the Barack Obama. 232 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: Well he said, since, yeah, since really really? Okay, So 233 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: let's start there first. I think Perk was miss He's 234 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: using the wrong word. If he wanted to say hot 235 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: ride controversial, maybe he has the most support, which I 236 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: still would agree with those but that's a conversation. But 237 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: did you use the term most powerful black man America? 238 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: That's crazy? First of all, he's one one hundredth the 239 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: power of Lebron James. It doesn't even miss It's not 240 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: even in the same stratosphere. He's one one hundredth the 241 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: power of Magic Johnson.

I'm talking about people. 315 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: That's why people will say, you know, he has the 316 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: support because people say he comes from a good home. 317 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 3: He comes from a father in the home, they who 318 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 3: loves it. That's not a championship. 319 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: But no, that's why a lot of people are supporting 320 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: him because it's it's a different story than the one 321 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: that often it is projected a draft and that. 322 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: But the reason people don't the other part is the 323 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 3: arrogant there's a part, and. 324 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: Man, I'm glad, I'm glad the mentioned and a lot 325 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: of people in real time didn't like Muhammad Ali in 326 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: real time, it's lovable now.

He said what he said, 328 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: he said all this and he is knowing there's articulate 329 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: and charismatic as Muhamad Ali. 330 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 4: But I'm saying Muhammad Ali, now here we go. What 331 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 4: I'm saying a lot of guys who are not like that. 332 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 4: But what I'm saying is people, some people don't like that. 333 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 4: And it's similar to white people. Rallied around Alan Iverson. 334 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 4: He wasn't perfect. He didn't say it all the time, 335 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 4: but Alan ivers authentically, I don't think I said was 336 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 4: ever of that ilk I used to I was around 337 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 4: Alan Iverson, I was covering the league. 338 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: I never felt that he he was confident in hisself, 339 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: but I don't remember any talking about himself. He had chained, 340 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: he had braids, he think people. So I think there's 341 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: a contingency of people who are offended that. People are 342 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: offended by that, like, oh, look at him too confident, 343 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: he's too cocky. 344 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 3: And people say, what's wrong with that? The young man 345 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 3: believes in himself. He said he ain't gonna fail. He 346 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 3: shouldn't believe. 347 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 4: That's why is the other way where no matter what 348 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 4: he does, you could be confident all that. When the 349 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 4: reports came out that he wasn't prepared or whatever. Everyone 350 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,239 Speaker 4: totally of the people who are in this camp, they 351 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 4: weren't in the media. 352 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, they put out a bath door. 353 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 354 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 3: Well, I mean obviously his father said that was those 355 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:11,120 Speaker 3: were blatant lies. 356 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 4: But you know those are blatant lies that that that No, 357 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 4: I'm answering your question. 358 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 3: I do believe you believe that. 359 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 4: Everybody different scouts and people organization, what a story to 360 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 4: make up. 361 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 1: I believe sure that everybody door Sanders doesn't carry himself 362 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: that the way in which they might look at franchise quarterbacks. 363 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 364 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: Do I believe he might have came in with some 365 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: headphones on some Absolutely do I think that would absolutely 366 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: rough stick. 367 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 3: Maybe he was prepared. Absolutely, I don't know. 368 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: And another point, what would be the reason from the 369 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: Vegas points off her up? And the other thing too 370 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: is that I also think that we have to This 371 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: is one of those peculiar situations. Me and you have 372 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: talked about it many times. 373 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 4: To undermine the shock of a quarterback, not a corner, 374 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 4: not a linebacker, going from dejected possible first round maybe 375 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 4: second to fifth. 376 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: We've never seen that. We talk about Aaron Rodgers to 377 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: this day, they'll show it him. He had to wait, 378 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 1: and he goes from should be a top ten pick 379 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: to the twenty fourth pick whatever it was, and that 380 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: was a big deal. So to have a guy that 381 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: people have made careers off of twenty and thirty and 382 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: forty people get wrong. Not that wrong, Rob, what a quarterback, 383 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: that's the point. And so it makes people go, well, 384 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 1: what's up with that? That don't seem right? And you 385 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: have don't see that, I don't see the signature game 386 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: he ever won in college. I'm gonna be honest, and 387 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: I heard all the other stuff. 388 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 3: He holds the ball too long. 389 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 4: There's a lot of the issues that they talked about. 390 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 4: All all the draft gurus, no one had him near there. 391 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 4: They had him first and second and like an hour 392 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 4: before maybe third. No quarterback with the name like that 393 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 4: has dropped to the fifth. So it makes people become 394 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 4: skeptical and. 395 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: Unfa you if we want to have this real honest conversation, 396 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 1: Black people in America have often had went through enough 397 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: to make people go, well, what's the real reason behind that? 398 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 3: Even did you? 399 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 4: So you're telling me in the league where you're trying 400 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 4: to win that he's a talent, Because if they wanted 401 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 4: to not have him in the league. 402 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 3: They don't have to draft him at all. Would you 403 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 3: agree with that? 404 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 4: If there was something yeah in in this case, so 405 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 4: why why would they even draft him? And if and 406 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 4: if the Cleveland Brown don't want them to succeed, they 407 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 4: don't have to play him. 408 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 3: They didn't have to play him at all. They could 409 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: have skipped over him. 410 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: Because but I said, because we're going this where and 411 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: we're having supposed to be if we gonna have a 412 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: real and honest conversation, there's absolutely reasons why black folks 413 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: are skeptical when things like that happen. 414 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 3: Would you give me that. 415 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: Whether it was where, whether it's what literally what happened, 416 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: or not, that they have not had enough to happen 417 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: that they go, well, that's weird that the one time 418 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: this kid's coming out and he supposed to be a 419 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: first round pick and he drops the fifth. 420 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 3: It never happens. 421 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: Right when the quarterback, we're not a running back with 422 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: right shoes, it comes out or not of quarter We 423 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: found out this kid was arrested a week before the draft. 424 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 3: A quarterback, but can's not happen. But here's my other issue, 425 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 3: and here's my biggest pushback to you. 426 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 4: His mentor is a guy that people think is one 427 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 4: of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, Tom Brady. 428 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 3: Okay, so this is to you. 429 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 4: Okay, So tom Brady's a part of it too, despite 430 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 4: being his mentor. 431 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 3: Okay, that's what you're saying. 432 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 4: Tom Brady's a part of it too, despite being his mentor, 433 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 4: despiting friends with his father, knowing his background, knowing where 434 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 4: it came from. Looking at his talent, Tom Brady, whose 435 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 4: team is garbage with a bad quarterback, refused to draft 436 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 4: him because of some memo from the NFL. 437 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 1: No, I didn't say that for tom An So why 438 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: did he draft him? Because tom Brady's made horrible decisions. 439 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: So you just talked about last hour. But tom Brady 440 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: brought a guy is mental. I'll tell you why. Because 441 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 1: tom Brady is trying to win now. So he brought 442 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: in a quarterback who has a history of winning, I 443 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: mean a coach and Pete Carroll. Tom brady quarterback Gino 444 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: Smith had a history of winning with Pete Carroll. Yes 445 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: he did, and that's why he brought those two wins. 446 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: Because tom Brady was trying to circumvent the rebuilds and 447 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 1: it couldn't be another quarterback. He couldn't be the backup. 448 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: He didn't want to bring in a young dude who 449 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: is probably gonna need some time to develop. 450 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 3: That makes no sense, all right, second seven ninety nine 451 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 3: on Fox. 452 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 4: I think that's the biggest red flag is that Tom 453 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 4: Brady had no use for Shadors. 454 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: Tom Brady was trying to win. Now, but one quarterback 455 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: on your roster. They already did have quarterbacks on their road. 456 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 3: They come on stop. 457 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 458 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 2: the nation.

That's the kind of thing that unless 506 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford does something like shocking, which is win another 507 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 4: super Bowl in his MVP, there's still that that pass 508 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 4: that he has to fight the way people look at him. 509 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 4: And as somebody who watched his very first game and 510 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 4: watches like most of his career up close and personal, 511 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 4: as I covered the Lions home and road, you know, 512 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 4: in all those games, there's a lot of bad juju, 513 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 4: video film, whatever you want to call it. You know, 514 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 4: of Matthew Stafford's day with the Lions. There is, and 515 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 4: he did win the Super Bowl with the Rams. 516 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: Who had already won before you got I'm gonna qualify, 517 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: don't qualify? He won? 518 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,239 Speaker 4: And no, but but but they had already gone without him. 519 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 4: It's like it's almost like the Brock Party thing. Why 520 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 4: I'm not a big Brock party. They had already gone. 521 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 4: Why got to be the pioneer or something? 522 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: Ron? 523 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 3: Why can't he just meant? 524 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 2: Know? 525 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: So Drake May can never succeed with the Patriot because 526 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: you know, Tom Brady had already won six over there, 527 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:01,959 Speaker 1: so Drake May can't win now. 528 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 4: No, no, no, My point is that team was already 529 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 4: put together and it's not like he led them and 530 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 4: was the Super Bowl MVP. 531 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 3: But he actually had two interceptions. 532 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: You do realize this is exactly what Sean McVeigh was saying, Man, 533 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: were really good, if only we had a quarterback who 534 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: was better than Jared Goff. 535 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 3: No, but you say, Jared GoF is gonna win the 536 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 3: lines of Super Bowl? That's what that's that's that's my hope. 537 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 3: No better than Matthew Stafford. Oh so so, so they 538 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 3: took a downgrade. No, Matthew Stafford. 539 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 5: That was a. 540 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 3: Downgrade, the line's down grade. Oh yeah, why would they 541 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 3: trade him there? Because Matthews raking about it there? 542 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 4: Okay, Mounty point is that is the bag Jack Nice. 543 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 4: That is the baggage that Matthew Stafford carries with him. 544 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 4: And unless he wins another super Bowl, So you got 545 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 4: to win another, you gotta win another thirty. 546 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 3: Touchdowns and two and seven it's already a super Bowl win. 547 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 1: I think he's five and two in the playoffs with 548 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: with the Rams, and he gotta win another supers. We 549 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,479 Speaker 1: only got two losses because then he's five. Maybe it's 550 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: five and three now to the last year, but he 551 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: was five and two five and uh what about the 552 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: wee losses with the Lions? I mean his life the Rams. 553 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 4: No, but his lifetime record is under five hundred, right, 554 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 4: how some of his playoffs with the Ram Yeah, but 555 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 4: his whole career. 556 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 3: Are we looking at his hall? 557 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 5: Yeah? 558 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: When you said that, I thought you would referring to 559 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: what I said with the Rams, So all right, I 560 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: think you misinterpreted what he was saying. I think what 561 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: he was saying is Matthew Stafford would do exactly what 562 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: he was supposed to do throw three four hundred yards, 563 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: but the team would still lose, and that is oftentimes 564 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: was the case. And I think Joe Burrow was also 565 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: taking a little shot on his own team, because what 566 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: did Joe Burrow do last year? Throw forty something touchdowns 567 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 1: all five thousand yards, balling out of control three four 568 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: hundred yards and still lose. So I think he was 569 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: taking a little shot at his own team, like, hey, 570 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: I know a little something about throws. 571 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 4: Talking about he was talking about just that is my 572 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 4: interpretation Thanksgiving. What I'm saying Thanksgiving memory is Matthew Stafford 573 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 4: going up three hundred meaningless yards and another loss. 574 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 3: It was actually that's exactly what he was talking about. 575 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: It was it meaning that those putrid years where we 576 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 1: had quarterback after quarterback at the quarter like well, you 577 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: can't even it was Kidna and who. 578 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 3: Else was in there? Uh, kidd one bad. He was like. 579 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: A middle is like all right, I'm not matt maddickitting. 580 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 1: He was like a Jameis Winston. We're like, all right, 581 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: we we can win some, we might lose something. He 582 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: wasn't bad, but we had we had a run of 583 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: some just bad quarterback play. But no, I think that's 584 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: more of what he was saying. But Matthew Stafford, he 585 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: has interesting history in Detroit. We talked about it before. 586 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: I think one of the reasons why people in that 587 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: area will still respect him because he wanted to. He 588 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: didn't shy way, he didn't do an Eli or some 589 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: other people, maybe even a Shador and then like I 590 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: don't want to go there, I'll pass. He was like, 591 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: they're back can basket. He's sure the Lions are going 592 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: to be their own sixteen. You want to go that 593 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: bad organization, Bring it on. I'm ready. I want to 594 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: be a part of the change. You remember Caleb and 595 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: his father was like, I don't know, we want to 596 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: go to Chicago. We might want to go to DC. 597 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: Matthew was like, YO, bring it. And I think he 598 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: earned a lot of respect out in Detroit for that that. 599 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: He was helped be part of the change and got 600 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: to a few postseason runs. So but there listen as 601 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: a Lions fan, there were some brutal Thanksgiving. The best 602 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: thing was thank God something on my plate because I 603 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: know that's football game about to be terrible. There was 604 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: a lot of years like that. I can't lie. 605 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 3: I can't lie. There was many a here like that. 606 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 4: We had the barbershops when he cuts on seven mile 607 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 4: row between out of Driving Myers. We used to have 608 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,239 Speaker 4: Lion season tickets that we used to give, like when 609 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 4: you got a haircut, you would get a ticket from 610 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 4: your barber. 611 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 3: We put it into a you know, a draft or whatever. 612 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 4: Yep, and you know, if you kept coming, then we 613 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 4: start giving out Lion season tickets.

They didn't want to go. 625 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 4: It was it was. 626 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 3: It was bad. It's the weirdest thing. You were there. 627 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: They have a massive fan base that unwarranted because they 628 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: didn't deserve the fan base that they have. You I 629 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: think you would even agree on that. No, I mean 630 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: it was so bad for so long they didn't deserve that. 631 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: I get it, but you know foot, but it's a 632 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: great sports town.

I 634 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: don't care what anybody says as much as Rabbit fans. Boston, Philadelphia, 635 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: New York, you know what I mean. 636 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 4: I think those cities, a lot of them, they were 637 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 4: already split, you know, because there's multiple teams. 638 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 3: Detroit has that
