And I'll 3 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: tell you this one thing I've learned about myself. I 4 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: already knew this. I can quarantine with anybody. I I 5 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: can quarantine with the best of them. Luckily, as a 6 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 1: podcaster and as a football guy, you know, quarantining and 7 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 1: talking ball is uh, I'm able to do that. And 8 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: I hope everyone out there stands safe listening to the rules. 9 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: If you have a small business, I hope you're keep 10 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: your head up and we're just gonna try to make 11 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: this through together. If you had a small, you know, 12 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,319 Speaker 1: restaurant in my area, I'd support it for sure. So 13 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: I I got your back, at least spiritually. I'm thinking 14 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: about everybody, and uh, you know, I don't know what 15 00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: we can do to pass the time beside, you know, 16 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: throw a couple back. I know that's what I did 17 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: this weekend, not much to watch. I was thinking about 18 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: it this weekend, the longest I've gone. You know, I'm 19 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: thirty five years old, so i'd say about ten eleven 20 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: years old. You know, I'm just watching sports at a 21 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: rapid rate. Football, basketball, baseball, golf, any event that was 22 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: on TV. Now. In in the mid nineties, probably toward 23 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: the late nineties, we got direct TV. Uh. In Davis 24 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: where I grew up, we were big Kings fans, so 25 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: we got the NBA package first. I remember getting ESPN 26 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: because when I was growing up, for a long period 27 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: of time, we didn't have cable TV. So I remember 28 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: getting ESPN for the first time, getting Sunday Night Football 29 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: with McGuire and Thizman and thinking, like, God, we made it. 30 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: Mama made it. I got football at night on Sunday, 31 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: you guys. I mean, it's it's weird to even talk 32 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: about like that. Can you imagine not having access to 33 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: games now? It sounds crazy, but it does kind of 34 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: bring into light, like March Matto. We have the Sweet 35 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: sixteen right now, uh, you know coming up this week. 36 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: We know who was in it, and it just didn't 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: happen this year, so it's it's a crazy time. I'm 38 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: just trying to listen. Quarantine with your loved ones, you know, 39 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: throw a couple back and you know, get to get 40 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: to know the people in your house. If you got 41 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: a girlfriend, you got a wife, you've got some kids. 42 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: This is good time. To spend some quality time. I 43 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: ended up the NFL network was replaying some games on Saturday, 44 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: and I end up rewatching a decent amount of the 45 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: Bills Texans playoff game, and two things jumped out hardcore. One, 46 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: the Bills are really good. Uh, the Bills, I would 47 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: imagine once, you know, hopefully knock on Wood sports kind 48 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: of comes back into our life and we start talking 49 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: gambling and the fall again, I'll be shocked if the 50 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: Bills aren't favored to win that division. Uh, they have 51 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: a big time defense. They add digs to that team 52 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: that already has some weapons on offense. If Josh Allen 53 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: keep getting better, Sean McDermott's a really good coach. I mean, 54 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: that's that's a team that I would not be shocked 55 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: to see in the conference championship in the next couple 56 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: of years. They're physical, they're well run. They just need 57 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: to score a little more points and they are there. 58 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: They got a chance to be really, really good. And 59 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: then the Texans, I mean, Hopkins was our best player. 60 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: Him and Sean, I mean, those two guys carried in 61 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: that game. The rest of the team was beyond average. 62 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: It was those two guys basically being like a basketball team, 63 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: like hop on our back. So that's what that's what 64 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: I did on Saturday. Uh, I thought a lot about 65 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: the Belichick Brady divorce. I'll dive into that some things 66 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: about O t A s. I know on Monday Colin 67 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: talked about it's gonna be really difficult for the for 68 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: the new coaches in the league, and something we've talked 69 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: about here. But I just there are some things that 70 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: I think teams are gonna be whether you have a 71 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: new coach or an old coach, you can be proactive 72 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: during this time that there's never if you do run 73 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: a football team and O t as do get canceled. 74 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: And I was texting with the head coach in the 75 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: league on Saturday after I had thrown a few back, 76 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, if you you ask everyone in 77 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: like his building, he's like, every one thinks O t 78 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: as we may get a couple of weeks. He's like, 79 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna get one week. I think 80 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: when football starts will be training camp. So if that 81 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: some of these teams should be preparing it and there's 82 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: a way you can, then I basically just wrote down 83 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff that happened over the last three 84 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: or four days that I didn't talk about on Friday. 85 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: That's either happened on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or today, and 86 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: we'll dive into that. And of course Middlecoff mailbag at 87 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: John Middlecoff is my Instagram. You guys are welcome. I 88 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: have a ton of questions. I'll try to bang them 89 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: all out at least a large percentage of them at 90 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: the end of the show. We do that. I know 91 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: we got a lot of new listeners. Uh, there's the 92 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: time to listen to podcast. Let's you know, quarantine and podcast. 93 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: They say quarantine and chill, quarantine and podcast and uh, 94 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: this is this is how we interact that the show. 95 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: This is your show. I mean, I'm just talking about 96 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: things that I think you guys would like. So any 97 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: question you have, you can slide at John Middlecoff, Twitter, Instagram, 98 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: handled d MS wide open. But I've been thinking a 99 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: lot about the Brady and Belichick divorce. And I've never 100 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: been married, been in some serious relationships, but when you 101 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: break up, you know, you're not entitled to anyone else's stuff. 102 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: You just go your separate ways. I know a lot 103 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: of people of all ages that have been getting divorced, 104 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: some smaller or some of shorter lengths, you know, under 105 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: five years, which depending on your state and how much 106 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: you make, might not be that much money. Obviously, always 107 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: kids factor in, but I know in the state of California, 108 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: when you've been married over ten years, there are different 109 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: rules that kind of clicks in about you're entitled be 110 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: half and and the payments. And the reality is with 111 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: Belichick and Brady, if you look at them like a 112 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: divorce couple, because that's essentially what happened, they're the equivalent 113 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: and divorced couple that had ten million ten billion in 114 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: the bank. They are so they're both got a five billion. 115 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: They're so rich it doesn't even matter their legacies if 116 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: neither of them did anything again moving forward, I don't 117 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: think we'll ever be touched. Belichick has eight Super Bowls, 118 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: two as an assistant for Parcels, which I ended up 119 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: watching the thirty for thirty last week with Belichick and Parcels. 120 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: Parcels even credited with Belichick for devising the game plans 121 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: to beat Bill Walsh, arguably the greatest offensive mine ever. 122 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: That was before he became the head coach and then 123 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: went to New England and won six. No head coaches 124 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: ever winning six Super Bowls as the head coach, And 125 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't think any assistant coach slash head coach is 126 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,239 Speaker 1: every accumulating eight rings. To put into context, Andy Reid, 127 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: who won his first Super Bowl as a head coach, 128 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: also had one as an assistant coach, now has two, 129 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: and that's a lot. Like if Andy retired tomorrow he 130 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: had one of his assistant won one as a head coach. 131 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: His resume is stacked. It's just that's that's all. Welcome 132 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame. Coach. Read Belichick's got eight 133 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: and tom who has six as a quarterback. One thing 134 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: I know for certain, no quarterback will ever win six 135 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: rings as as a starter. That's never happening again. Maybe 136 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: if you played it perfectly like Robert Ory and you 137 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: bounce to the right teams as a backup, maybe you 138 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: could pull it off. But probably not either like, no 139 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: one's ever winning six rings as a coach as a quarterback. 140 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: So they had a divorce. They both basically hit the lottery. 141 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: Melinda Gates, Bill Gates. However you want to look at it, 142 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: they're super rich. It doesn't matter what's moving forward. And really, 143 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: when I look at it, in this divorce and listen, 144 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: like a breakup, a divorce, you always kind of hope 145 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: you do better than your significant other. I mean, at 146 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: the end of the day, we're all inherently selfish. I 147 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,679 Speaker 1: know people say you root for others, and that's true, 148 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: but when you get a divorce, you know, I would 149 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: imagine you're kind of hoping that you end up on 150 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: the better end of it all than her or him, 151 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: depending on you know what, your guy or girl. But 152 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: the reality isn't this situation If I get a divorce 153 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: at fifty years old, she's fifty and I'm fifty, we're 154 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: both kind of at the same lot in land, right, well, 155 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,679 Speaker 1: Belichick and Brady or not. Despite Belichick being way older 156 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: than Brady. Even as sixty eight years old, Belichick could 157 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: probably coach I mean at minimum five probably eight years. 158 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a pretty young looking weather sixty eight, Like, 159 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: I don't see him going anywhere anytime soon. Brandy's holding 160 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: on for dear life right now. He's forty three years old, 161 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: and I know he just signed a two year deal, 162 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: but there's a chance by midyear next year. It just 163 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: looks terrible maybe it looks great, who knows, but we 164 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: know he doesn't have much longer to go. If Tom 165 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: Brady is on the putting Green on whole seventeen, I'd 166 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: say Belichick's probably a whole fourteen now. He could leave 167 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: in any moment if he wanted to, But I think 168 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: we have enough information to know Belichick's life is football. Now. 169 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: Tom's life is football too, But when you're the actual player, 170 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: you don't control it as much. So whether Tom wins 171 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: one game or takes his team back to back years 172 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: of the playoffs, his legacy is so set in stone 173 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 1: it's not even funny. Now. If he were to win 174 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl with Tampa, that would be an icing 175 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: the cake. But I think the cake, the majority of 176 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: the icing, and the cherry is about to be put 177 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: on top. Like it just doesn't get any better if 178 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: you're Tom, Because when you think about it, there have 179 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: been other quarterbacks Joe Montana want to win a Super 180 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: Bowl with George Seffert, and with Bill Walsh, Troy Aikman, 181 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: one one with Jimmy Johnson, and with what's his name 182 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: the old Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer. Like it's happened before. 183 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: Hall of fame quarterbacks have won Super Bowls with multiple coaches. 184 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 1: I just wrote down a couple of coaches that came 185 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: to mind. Parcels won both the Super Bowls with the 186 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 1: same quarterback. Bill Walsh both his Super Bowls with the 187 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: same quarterback. Andy Reid, who just won with ma Homes. 188 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: Let's assume he wins another one in the next couple 189 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: of years, We'll win him both with Mahomes. If Sean 190 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: Payton never wins another one, it's gonna be with the 191 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 1: same quarterback. If Pete Carroll ever wins another one, it's 192 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: gonna be with Russell Wilson. Like typically, coaches, you're as 193 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: strong as your best player, Like look at Phil Jackson. 194 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: Is Phil Jackson one of the greatest basketball coaches of 195 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: all time? Yeah? Probably he did it all with Kobe 196 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: or Michael or Shack. Like if you're pretty dependent on 197 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: the player. If Belichick, like Tom Brady, if he would 198 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: have left the Patriots in the prime of his career, 199 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: could have easily won a Super Bowl with another That's 200 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: that's the reality of the sport. Top quarterbacks. Aaron Rodgers 201 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: could have won it with McCarthy if he had had 202 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: Andy Reid or Sean Payton and left. He could have 203 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: won it with those guys. We're coaches usually say, even 204 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 1: the great ones, they are pretty dependent on that star quarterback. 205 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: Just the reality of the way the league set up. 206 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: If Belichick somehow, I don't even think he needs to 207 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: win a super Bowl, but if he can get to 208 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl with Gared Stidham on Andy Dalton, some 209 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: duty drafts next year, in the next five handful of years, 210 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: just get su Super Bowl. If Brady were to get 211 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,599 Speaker 1: to a Super Bowl with Arians, and Belichick were to 212 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: get to a Super Bowl with some random guy, I 213 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: actually think it would be more impressive what Belichick did 214 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: because we've already seen Bruce Arians like. He's a big 215 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: time coach. He's coached in a conference championship game, He's 216 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: been in the playoffs multiple times. Hell, they went seven 217 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: and nine last year. The quarterback through thirty picks. I 218 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: think a lot of people like Brady. When when we 219 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: lean whether it's Brady or Belichick, you know, depending on 220 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: who you ask, probably be split. I would imagine the 221 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: casual football fan might lean Brady a little more than 222 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: the coach. Now the more intense football fan who's a 223 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: little more geeky in terms of X's nose and the 224 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: strategy of football might lean Belichick, but I understand both 225 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 1: elements of the argument. At the end of the day, 226 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: the combination of the two of them is really what 227 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: makes them so powerful, and both of them more than 228 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 1: likely would have been great independent of each other if 229 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: they would have gott never met like their roads or passed, 230 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:44,719 Speaker 1: never would have crossed. But Brady like just back to 231 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: the quarterback thing. No one's winning six rings, Russell Wilson. 232 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: Think about this, Russell Wilson. The two best quarterbacks in 233 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: the league right now are Russell Wilson and Patrick Mahomes. 234 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: I know Lamar One an m v P, but until 235 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: you can't function in a playoff game, I can't put 236 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: you in that category. So Mahomes and Russell Wilson, who 237 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: are Hall of famers. Mahomes had the greatest two year 238 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: opening stretch probably in league history, and Russell's had one 239 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: of the special careers I know I personally have ever seen. 240 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: I think he's an all time great player. They've combined 241 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: for two Super Bowls. The likelihood if Mahomes max is 242 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: out probably wins three total. If I tell you right now, 243 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: Mahomes wins three Super Bowls. I mean, he'd probably go 244 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: down as the second greatest quarterback of all time. He'd 245 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: be like, well, he didn't win as much as Brady, 246 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: but he was more talented in Brady will go Brady one, 247 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,479 Speaker 1: Mahomes to Montana three or something. Right, But if Belichick, 248 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, if he is somehow able in the 249 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: next handful of years with some random quarterback to make 250 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: deep playoff runs, it'll I already think he's the I 251 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: don't just think he's the greatest coach in NFL history. 252 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: I think he's the greatest coach in sports history. Now 253 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 1: you could poke holes through that. I think he is 254 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: the Like we already consider Tom the greatest quarterback of 255 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: in league history. What's he fighting for? I was just 256 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: watching Catch Me if you Can with Tom Hanks and Leo. 257 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: It was on in the background because what there's no 258 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: sports on, and the scene once he starts working for 259 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: the FBI, when you can tell Leo is like, I 260 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: can't do this, I'm gonna become a criminal again and 261 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: take off. Tom Hanks kind of sets him up. Leo's 262 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: walking away and Tom goes, you know what, leave if 263 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: you want, because I know you're not gonna be happy 264 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: because no one's chasing anymore, Like nobody's chasing Tom Brady anymore. 265 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: It's cemented. He cemented it a couple of years ago, 266 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: arguably when he wants fifth, let alone his sixth super Bowl. 267 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: But I think, Belichick, you can poke holes. He's done 268 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: it all with Brady, and you know what, I'd even 269 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: listen to that argument. But if he is able, I think, honestly, 270 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: if he's able to make the playoffs this year with 271 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: Jared Stidham, Jared freaking Stidham, like I think the Bills, 272 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: like I said, rewatching that playoff game, they're gonna be 273 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: really good. I like Sean McDermott. I root for any 274 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: coach that I have a cell phone number in my phone, obviously, 275 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: like I root for people I know. And he's a 276 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: really nice guy. He's really high level guy. Those of 277 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: you that listen to the interview, he's impressive. You watch 278 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 1: his team, they're good. But is it out of the 279 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: round possibility to think Belichick like, I'm not just writing 280 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: the Bills into the division championship in terms of winning 281 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: the a f C East, like I would the Chiefs 282 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: or the Ravens. I would I would write them. I 283 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: think I'm gonna pick them to win the division. But 284 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: I do it in pencil because I know this, Like, 285 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: are we sure we want to bet against the Patriots 286 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: as some underdog because here's what I know. The Buccaneers 287 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: are not gonna be I don't think anyone's gonna view 288 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: them as an underdog. Now, maybe they won't be the 289 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: divisional pick because the Saints, who went thirteen and three 290 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: and have a loaded roster, most of will pick them. 291 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: But I think the majority of America, myself included, will 292 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: immediately put the Buccaneers in the super Bowl or not, 293 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: excuse me, the playoffs as one of the seven teams. 294 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: And I think it'll be pretty hit or miss with media, 295 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: people with sports fans be like this the year Belichick, Mrs, 296 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: I know what I will not do, I promise you 297 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,239 Speaker 1: unless no. I just I just think there's no situation 298 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: in which I do not pick the Patriots to make 299 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: the playoffs. In the a f C one, the NFC 300 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: is dramatically better than the a f C. When you 301 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: just look at the NFC, look at the NFC West, 302 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: the Seattle and San Francisco are basically locked playoff teams. 303 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: The Cardinals just added Hopkins, and the Rams, who have 304 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: some issues, did go nine and seven last year. You 305 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: got the Packers who just went thirteen and three. The 306 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: Bears were had the worst quarterback play arguably in the 307 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: league beside Baker Mayfield, and they went eight and eight. 308 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: The Vikings are solid. And you look at the NFC East, 309 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: the Eagles, they're gonna be tough. They added a lot 310 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: this offseason. The Cowboys and McCarthy can get implemented stuff. 311 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys should be solid. And then the a f C 312 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: South has the h Brady now and the Saints, like, 313 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: look at the a f C. I got Lamar Jackson, 314 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: who are there right now? The regular season pay aper champs, 315 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: the Bills, the Texans got worse. I mean, it's just 316 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: we got the Chiefs, the Broncos, and the Chargers got 317 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: a lot better. I don't know who the Chargers quarterback is. 318 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: The Broncos, I don't know how good Drew Lock is. 319 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 1: The Raiders, who the hell knows. They've made the playoffs 320 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: one time in seventeen years. The Jets, I mean, come on, 321 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, long way to go. The Bengals stink Steelers. 322 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: I mean, Roethlisberger looks like a mountain man right now. 323 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: It's just a lot of questions. I picked the Patriots 324 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: to make the playoffs, and I know this, in a 325 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: playoff game with Bill Belichick, their offense couldn't have been 326 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: much worse, and they were in toe to toe with 327 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: the team that went to the n FC Championship game. 328 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: I think that Belichick has way more to gain moving 329 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: forward than Brady, because I really don't know what Brady 330 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: can gain. Okay, let's uh, let's talk about this upcoming 331 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: off season. And one thing I saw on Twitter the 332 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: last twenty four hours is like, and I got a 333 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: couple of these tweets and d m s in my Insta, 334 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: do you think the NFL season is gonna happen? Oh? 335 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: My guys, one, I'm not Dr Focci Fauci. I got 336 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 1: no clue. I'm just I got a business degree from 337 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: cal Poly. I'm just trying to make it to April one. 338 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: It's March. I got no clue what's gonna happen April one? 339 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: Let alone, May one, let alone, June one. We got 340 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: a long way to go. These are these are crazy 341 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: weird times. We're all in this together. But to think 342 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 1: that the NFL see it's so far away. We just 343 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 1: need to have the mindset let's basically work right now, 344 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: day to day, week to week. Let's all just keep 345 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: on shugging. But to even ask questions about the NFL season, 346 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of pointless. I feel like a 347 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: like a football coach, a little cliche, like we're just 348 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: going day to day, trying to get better a little 349 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: bit day today. That's really kind of how I'm approaching 350 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: my life, and I hope everyone's approaching it. Just try 351 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: to listen to what they're telling us and make this 352 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 1: freaking thing go away, for the love of God, But 353 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: I I can't even stay with a straight face anything 354 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 1: about the season being we're so far away from that 355 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: being talked about. But the one thing we're not far 356 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: away from being talked about is O T S And 357 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: right now the off season has been indefinitely suspended. Right 358 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: It's just it's not gonna happen at this pace. That 359 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: is workouts. There's usually phase one, Phase two, and phase three. 360 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: There's a workout phase where you start lifting with your 361 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: with your strength coach. Then there's a second phase where 362 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: your coaches I think, can start working with you a 363 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: little bit and watch a little film. Then there's the 364 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: third phase, knows that known as practice. Right, you have 365 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: rookie minicamp, you have a two or three minicamps, then 366 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: you have the the mandatory O T A S. I 367 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: texted with the coach this weekend who said, you know, 368 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: depending on who you ask in his building, you'll get 369 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 1: a different response. He's like, in my opinion, I don't 370 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: think anything's gonna happen this offseason. So no workouts, no practices, 371 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: those are done. And I think most of us, if 372 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: you just can take a deep breath, would go yeah, 373 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: it makes sense when you start reading that the NBA 374 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 1: probably doesn't come back till June one. I don't think 375 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: these you're not gonna practice because if gatherings are still 376 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: being talked about what happens at a football practice, You've 377 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: got twenty coaches, you've got ninety man rosters, you've got trainers, 378 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: you have executive you got a lot of people out there. 379 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: It's not educated guests. It doesn't happen. And this is 380 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: coming from someone that runs a team. So he's like, 381 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: we're starting to get thoughts together on how to get 382 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: ahead of this. And if I ran a team right now, 383 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: I would be thinking. And the good thing if you're 384 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: an NFL team, you have access to one thing and 385 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: that's the most important thing in times of turmoil money 386 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: because you can adapt. You can in tough times which 387 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 1: none of us could have expected. I wouldn't have known 388 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 1: what the coronavirus. No, none of us haven't heard of 389 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: this thing like two or three months ago. The corona, 390 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: the virus is now changing the landscape of our world. 391 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: And definitely on this podcast we talked about sports. But 392 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 1: I do think if some of these coaches right now 393 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: start implementing or talking with their I T guys, they 394 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: can have a plan of attack. And I just saw 395 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: on Twitter before I started recording that Clay Helton, the 396 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: coach at USC said his strength coach developed a private 397 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: instagram that everyone on the team followed and he put 398 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: up workouts that they can try to do at home. 399 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: Because the one thing that would be very difficult. If 400 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: I was a general manager, what I would be doing 401 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: is I would be working with my players agents and 402 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: trying to get them in situations to set up for 403 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: individual workouts where it's just one and one other person. 404 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: And because there is a chance that the workout situation 405 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: gets thrown out the window and clearly all these gyms 406 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: are closed. I would imagine everyone listening, your gym's closed. 407 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: My gym's closed. Why because a gym is a place 408 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: where the corona could probably spread like wildfire, people sweating machines, 409 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: everyone were using. They're all shut down. But you might 410 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 1: be able to be proactive and get if not an 411 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: individual to work with someone again, not a health inspector, 412 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: just following the rules on television. If you're not allowed 413 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: to do that, at least set up a situation. So 414 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: maybe my strength coaches, if I'm the Cowboys, the Niners, whoever, 415 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: I tape all the lifts I want you to do. 416 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: And maybe in a situation, if you have a teammate 417 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: in that area, the two of you can get together, 418 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: the three of you whatever small groups and try to 419 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: work and maintain a level of fitness because it's going 420 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: to be difficult. And the other thing that I would 421 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: be doing right now if I was definitely a new 422 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 1: coach like Mike McCarthy, Joe Judge, Ron Rivera, and I'm 423 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: gonna be implementing new schemes because a huge part of 424 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: the off season. It's one thing if you're Andy Reader, 425 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, your schemes stayed the same. But part of 426 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: maintaining anything in life is practice. Iron sharpens iron. There's 427 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: a reason like Tiger Woods in his peak, was a grinder, 428 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Steph Curry, Lebron James. Practices a 429 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: big deal. You're either getting better or getting worse. If 430 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: you just stopped doing something, you're not gonna get better 431 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: at it. Part of what the craziest part of what 432 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: pro athletes put themselves through is in modern day, like 433 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,239 Speaker 1: back in the day, it's like, you know, I just 434 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: took the summer off. I was drinking bear and I 435 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: just used training camp to whip myself in shape. Like 436 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: those days are over. The days of taking this is 437 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: kind of a three sixty five job. Maybe occasional vacation 438 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: here after the season, in a vacation in the summer, 439 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: you know, so a total maybe of two to three weeks, 440 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: but not an entire off season. You talk to NFL 441 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: players or NFL strength coaches, it's a pretty intensive process 442 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: off season, long during the season. During the off season, 443 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: also physically and mentally. That's what makes football so great. 444 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: It's a thinking man's game, and part of it is 445 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: implementing offenses and defenses. I would be working with my 446 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: I T department and someone last week when Ship was 447 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: kind of hitting the fan, I was like, you know, 448 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a big problem for the offseason, 449 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: and someone tweeted at me. I work for a company. 450 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: We do everything virtual. We've done it for years. I'm like, yeah, 451 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: just because the NFL is this billion dollar operation does 452 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: not mean my sixty three year old running back coach 453 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: knows how to use a computer. I've worked in an 454 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: NFL building. A lot of coaches are computer illiterate. In 455 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: fairness that in their profession they don't really have to. 456 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: They can get cut ups and videos by the video guys. 457 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: They just have to be able to teach. And I 458 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: would be using this time to get an I T 459 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: guy to teach my entire staff, and it would be 460 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: a little difficult, right because we're all independent. We're all 461 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: quarantining how if we get into a situation where to 462 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: get everyone's Skype or Google hangouts or whatever you're using 463 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: whatever program your team uses. And once probably after the 464 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: AFT where worst case scenario, they work out on their 465 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: own and at a specific time, we do an hour 466 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 1: or two of install. I see my friends on Instagram. 467 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: Their kids are having virtual second grade, fifth grade, seventh grade, college. 468 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: You know students. I see that I fall on Instagram 469 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: or going to online classes. You can do something similar 470 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: in the NFL. You have access to a ton of money. 471 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: Every team has high level I T guys. The The 472 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: technology is pretty easy. I would imagine a lot of 473 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: you guys listening whatever job you're in, have done Google hangouts, 474 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: have done Skype calls, have done whatever. We're all doing 475 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: it in some former fashion. And you can implement that 476 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: with your NFL strategy because probably not gonna have offseason. 477 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: Imagine being Mike McCarthy. You're the head coach of the 478 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. Well, you're gonna implement your own offense, which 479 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: we all watched, like Peter King and all those guys 480 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: went to see him in Wisconsin last year. How he 481 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: had like the fired football coaches of America going over tape, like, 482 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: what is Mike McCarthy's offense. It might be a little different. 483 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: So these players like the playbook. You gotta start teaching them, 484 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: because if you start July, when everyone shows up, you 485 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: will be starting even though normally when you start training 486 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: camp you go back over everything you did know t 487 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: A s. But at least they've already learned it. It's 488 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: like if you're gonna learn Spanish, and the language is 489 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: probably a bad example, but let's say you're gonna learn 490 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: some basic sentences of Spanish and we spend a couple 491 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: of months March or excuse me, May and June on 492 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: learning some Spanish and then we take all of July off. Well, 493 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: when I received August one, I probably wouldn't go past 494 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: what we learned. We might have to go over what 495 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: we've learned. And that's a huge part of the off 496 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,959 Speaker 1: season for new coaches and even old coaches, just reinstalling 497 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 1: what you already do, adding elements to what you're already 498 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: based stuff is and expanding on everything trying to get better. 499 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: And that's not gonna happen. But I do think the 500 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: technology is going to allow the progressive teams to be 501 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: on top of this, and there's in two thousand twenty, 502 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: there is no excuse. Now it will be difficult if 503 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: all your coaches are at home but I still think 504 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: you'll be able to figure that out. It's gonna be 505 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: an intensive process. Your I T guys gonna need to 506 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: be on point. Hell if I'm if I'm a GM 507 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: and my T guys not dynamic enough, I might be 508 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: talking to my owner and thinking, do we need to 509 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: add someone who understands how to do this? Because this 510 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: is this is uncharted territory, and in any business, when 511 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: you're an uncharted territory, it can be pretty difficult. But 512 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: the good thing about March and even early April for 513 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: a lot of these teams is times on your side. 514 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 1: Like the players weren't gonna report for until right around 515 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 1: the draft, depending on who your team is now new coaches. 516 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: I think I read last week that April six, or 517 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: maybe the first week of April was when Mike McCarty 518 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: the Cowboys could report. Well that that's out the window, 519 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 1: Like that ain't happening. But if you're able to do 520 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: things on the internet and streaming services, hell, how how 521 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: about this make And I'm just throwing out ideas, why 522 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: not have each coach record an hour worth of video 523 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: of installing certain place and every player gets it. I mean, 524 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: the options are endless tech we've never had. We've literally 525 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: never had more technology to be able to do this, 526 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: or every coach picks the basic plays if you ran 527 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: a new operation, if you're Joe Judge, the the fifteen 528 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: plays that are going to be the base of our offense. 529 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: You cut those up and you send it to everyone 530 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: with an iPad and they watch it, and then every 531 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,479 Speaker 1: day you send them more like this is the second 532 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: option off those whatever, and maybe you do like two 533 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: minutes on each play with the coach recording a video 534 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 1: into the iPad and that place first, and then the 535 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: play goes whatever. I mean, I'm just thinking of these 536 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. But I don't want 537 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,199 Speaker 1: to hear about, well, we didn't have the time, we 538 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 1: couldn't do this. Yeah, no one can. Welcome to two 539 00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: thousand twenty coronavirus. You better have another pitch, because if 540 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: your only pitch is a fastball, you're in trouble. Now, 541 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 1: the progressive teams and the technological the teams that embrace 542 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: this are gonna have a huge advantage if O t 543 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: as sure as hell looks like it's headed to be 544 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: no moss. Okay, let's go over some weekend stories. We're 545 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: just stories that are lingering out there that you know 546 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: excite me. Uh start with Cam Newton. I've said it 547 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,360 Speaker 1: a couple of times on this podcast, Carolina. Cut the guy. 548 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: You're you're not gonna trade him. Pigs get fed, hawks 549 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: get slaughtered. You got your starting quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater. Just no, 550 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: one's trading for the guy, not mid Corona. He's injured. 551 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: Just relieve him of his duties. Just cut him and 552 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: get on with it. It's okay. Better players have been cut. 553 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: Just cut them. I know you're trying to like play 554 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: it down the middle. You already kind of screwed up 555 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: because you pretended that it was his call. It's not. 556 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: You're forced him to it. Just cut him and so 557 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: we can all move on. Jadeveon Clowney, he wants twenty million. 558 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: Sources are according to the Internet, Seattle might meet about 559 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: seventeen eighteen. Listen. I like Clowney, and on any given game, 560 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: he can be the best player on the field. I 561 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: couldn't pay him that type money. Yeah, I I pay 562 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: premium for premium players and premium players that I can 563 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: depend on, like DeAndre Hopkins is a dependable player. So 564 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: if I'm the Cardinals, and I gotta give him a 565 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: raise even though he's under contract. His resume speaks for itself. 566 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: I can't consistently depend on Clowney. He does not play 567 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: hard every game. Aaron Donald, Khalil Mack Hell, even Jalen 568 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: Ramsey when he's on the field plays hard. Trying to 569 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: think of the top defensive players Fletcher Cox over the 570 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: years have brought it, Luke Keikley Forever, Bobby Wagner, Richard Sherman, 571 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: like I my star guys. If I'm gonna pay star money, 572 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: I gotta be. I can't wake up on Sunday morning 573 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: going into a game with Jim Nance or Joe Buck 574 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: or whoever the hell we're playing and thinking is Mike 575 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: is my second highest paid player. Gonna bring it today, 576 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: like Russell Wilson, Bobby Wagner bring it every game. When 577 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: you think about Seattle when they had a humming, their 578 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: guys brought their a game. Hell, Marshawn is a different cat. 579 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: But did you ever watch Marshawn in the peak of 580 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: his powers and think, you know what, Marshawn is just 581 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: kind of half accident today and that that's a clowney thing. 582 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: I get he's really talented, and when he cares, he's 583 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: borderline unblockable. But when's he gonna care every other week? 584 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: Only the primetime games? If we're playing the Niners Monday 585 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: night football, what about Sunday morning against Tampa Bay or 586 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: Sunday at ten am kickoff against you know, the New 587 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: York Giants when they're when they're one and eight. We 588 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: we care then, because when I'm paying big money, like 589 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 1: I need you to play all the time, I would 590 00:30:54,040 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: be very very uncomfortable paying Clowney. Interesting piece in the 591 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: Albert Brier MMQB today. It shows you how powerful technology is. 592 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: People were not calling the Bills about Stefon Diggs until 593 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins was extended and Diggs tweeted something, I don't 594 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: have it verbat him, but like I need a change 595 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: or time for a change. That's when all the teams 596 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: that tried to trade for him in the fall started 597 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: to reaching out to the Bills said we want in, 598 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: and it led to him getting traded. And sometimes when 599 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: you trade for a guy in the off season, you 600 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: get him for cheaper than when you trade for him 601 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: in season or right before the season. You look at 602 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey Khalil Mack was trade right before the season. 603 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: They usually get paid or get traded for a bowload. 604 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 1: This guy went for what a first, a six and 605 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: a seventh or fifth and a six whatever. It wasn't 606 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: that much. It's not like a one and a third. 607 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: Like one thing that Albert Brier wrote was during the 608 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: season they wanted like a one and a two or 609 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: one and a couple of threes. He went for a 610 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: lot less than that. Now, he was never gonna be 611 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: worth that, but they can bend you over some time 612 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: in season, and I think the Bills got pretty good 613 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: value on the trade. Multi bill XFL quarterbacks got signed. 614 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: You know, the XFL, like every league shut down, so 615 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: there is no more XFL this year. It's indefinitely suspended 616 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,239 Speaker 1: or whatever. It won't happen again till next year. But 617 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 1: it already had some benefits. P J. Walker, who I 618 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: just watched his highlight tape on Twitter today. He's pretty talented. 619 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: He's got a big time arm. He's really athletic, I 620 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: mean really the only knock you see when you watch 621 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 1: and make plays. He's small, you know, he's five eleven, 622 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: but in terms of arm strength, he's got legit arm 623 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: and it's not. He understands the NFL. He's been on 624 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: the Colts practice squad for a couple of years. It's 625 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: not like he's some random guy. I would expect him 626 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: to be the backup for the Carolina Panthers, for Teddy Bridgewater, 627 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: and he's he's got a better arm than Teddy. Now 628 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,959 Speaker 1: is he a better player than Teddy? Probably not. But 629 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: this gets back to the first thing I said, just 630 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: cut Cam Newton, like Dave Tepper. I wake up this morning, 631 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: I'm scrolling through Twitter. CNBC is tweeting about your tech 632 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: stocks like you're an NFL owner? Can you can you 633 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: just cut your star quarterback? Get on with it? The 634 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 1: Vegas Draft is is donezo, of course it is. I 635 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: mean the draft is what I think. I think it's April, 636 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: a month from the recording of this marche, so we 637 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: got thirty one day till the draft. I think with 638 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: the draft will ultimately become will just be a studio show. Luckily, 639 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 1: the NFL has benefited greatly from the timing of Corona. 640 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: Can you imagine, uh, someone that talks about the NFL 641 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,239 Speaker 1: for a living, think how much this would suck if 642 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: you're a die hard NBA fan. If you're a big 643 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: baseball guy, it's does suck. I mean I'm a big 644 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 1: all sports guy. It sucks. Right, we're not getting any sports. 645 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 1: But imagine if this would have hit in October instead 646 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: of February, football would have stopped. It when everything like 647 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: it it would have stopped, we would have had no 648 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: football games for the foreseeable future. So it's where I 649 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: keep getting back to when people keep asking me think 650 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: the football season is gonna stop? I sure hope not. 651 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: But we just need to get this, make this thing 652 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 1: go away, so we can just kind of get back 653 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: to normalcy. But the draft, Donzo Jane Slater, who also 654 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,359 Speaker 1: hosts a podcast on Collin's Network, Boys and Girls, said, 655 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,239 Speaker 1: uh that the Cowboys are interested and in doing some 656 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: due diligence on the Dominican sue. So that's something to 657 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: keep an eye on that. That wouldn't be a bad 658 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: little signing for the Cowboys. Brian Hoyer in New England, 659 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: because of course, Brian Hoyers in New England. This does 660 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: make a lot of sense. Like I said, oh t 661 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: A is gonna be gone. Belichicks, that playbook with him 662 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: and McDaniels is so labor intensive, You're gonna need people 663 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: to know what the hell is going on. It's why 664 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: Jared Sidham is gonna have a chance to be the starter, 665 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: So why Brian Brian Hoyer immediately will also be in 666 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: the mix. They just they didn't know the playbook. Cam 667 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: Brake Cameron Brad, the tight end for the Tampa Bay 668 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: Buccaneers who signed a contract extension last year. There was 669 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: talking about him getting caught this year because he made 670 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,720 Speaker 1: so much money. Just restructured his contract, took a little 671 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: two million reduction. Smart move, because if I was Cameron 672 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: Brad's agent, I said, yeah, you know, you can let 673 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 1: them Releasha and you can go to a team and 674 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: get a little more money, or you can stay with 675 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: Tom Brady where all the bright lights and all the 676 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: cameras are gonna be watching you. Everyone is gonna be 677 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 1: talking about Tampa Bay. And look at his history, Cameron. 678 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: He likes throwing to the tight ends, and they got you, 679 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,280 Speaker 1: and they got O. J. Howard. There's a decent chance 680 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: that you could have seven eight touchdowns and then all 681 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 1: of a sudden be a Pro Bowl tight end and 682 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: you're playing with Tom Brady, asked Julian Edelman asked West 683 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: Walker asked some of the guys over the years that 684 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 1: have played with Tom Brady what it does for their career, 685 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: changes their lives. Smart move by Cameron Brad. He I 686 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: think he's a Harvard guy. Uh, easy to see smart decision. 687 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 1: A lot of a lot of greedy pigs in the 688 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 1: short term would have not taken the the paid deduction 689 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: left then they probably their career would have been derailed. Instead, 690 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: this guy, I want. I would draft Cameron Brad and 691 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 1: no J Howard in uh in fantasy and I bet 692 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: Cameron Braid will never know butterfly effect, but he'll end 693 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: up making more money long term. By stand Well, Andy 694 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: Dalton have a home, Like, are they gonna cut them? 695 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: Are they gonna trade him? Is there no chance Andy 696 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: Dalton's gonna be a starter, because it sure doesn't feel 697 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: like it feels like Andy Dalton's just kind of floating around. 698 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: Nowhere to go? Jamis nowhere to go. It's kind of 699 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: kind of a crazy time, Jacoby, somewhere to go. The 700 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: culture are gonna keep Jacoby Brissett. Smart Move Rivers is 701 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 1: really old and really when you look last year at 702 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: the Colts, when we're all watching them early in the season. 703 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: They weren't great, but they were definitely a competitive wild 704 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:38,280 Speaker 1: card type team. Jacoby hurts, his mcl hoyer stinks, uh, 705 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 1: and then and then and then Jacoby starts again. But 706 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 1: he's never the same. He can't really move around. He's 707 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: not a great athlete to begin with. If Jacoby Brissette 708 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: is your backup, you're in pretty damn good shape. Now 709 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 1: would you love paying him whatever they're paying him? It 710 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: also shows you remember last year he became the starter, 711 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: and it's like, you gotta show everyone in the locker 712 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 1: room he's your starter, So give him thirty million dollars. 713 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 1: Or you could have just had him played on his 714 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: rookie contract and you know what everyone in the locker 715 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 1: room would have done. Yeah, the starting quarterback. It's not 716 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: like giving him more money to his direct deposit makes 717 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 1: him that much more powerful in the locker room. The 718 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 1: Colts got aggressive. They tried to do right, and it 719 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,359 Speaker 1: kind of backfired because they still could have had him 720 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: had a really low number. Instead, they got super aggressive. 721 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 1: They gave him all this cash when they didn't really 722 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: need to. Now I'd have to look back. He might 723 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: have been a free agent. But still you probably could 724 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: have got him for like he would have signed a 725 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: two year, probably twelve million dollar contract alone thirty or 726 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: whatever they gave him. I get it. Emotions were running high. 727 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 1: It's why Andrew, you know, retired. I'm not saying it 728 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 1: was an easy situation for Indianapolis. It does show you, though, 729 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 1: sometimes in a very very emotional state, if you're gonna 730 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: make a business move, if you're gonna make a big 731 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 1: personal move, sometimes it's best. And I struggle with this. 732 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: I'm a very very impatient human being. Take a step back, 733 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: take a deep breath. If the Colts had done that, 734 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 1: taken a step back, take a deep breath. Maybe sleep 735 00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 1: on it. Maybe sleep on it for a couple of days. 736 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: Not Jacoby is gonna walk out on you. You probably 737 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: don't give him that contract. Nelson Aguilar, who everyone made 738 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: fun of last year when the burning building happened and 739 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: the local news reporter got the one dude on camera 740 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 1: saying how babies were getting dropped out of the burning 741 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: building and they were catching him. Unlike Aguilar who was 742 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: dropping balls. I think he had literally dropped the ball. 743 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: I forget who they were playing, but he could have 744 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: had a game winning touchdown in the corner of the 745 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: end zone. Dropped. He had a bad season. He had 746 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 1: a lot of drops. Just a couple of years removed though, 747 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,399 Speaker 1: from him resurrecting his career. Raiders took a one year 748 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: flyer on him. Uh, you know, I like the signing. 749 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 1: I think Nelson's pretty talented. He's not a number one 750 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: or number two receiver, but if he's in your rotation, 751 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,000 Speaker 1: you're you're in pretty good shape. Nice another nice, solid 752 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: signing for Mike mack. Now they don't have enough premium players, 753 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,399 Speaker 1: they do have a lot of good role players though 754 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: on the Raiders. Let's go Middlecoff. Mail back at John 755 00:38:54,560 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: Middlecoff is my Instagram handle. The direct messages are wide open. 756 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: I got a bunch, I got like thirty right now. 757 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna try to bang out a bunch. Gonna go 758 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: rapid fire. Big Jets fan here. With the Jets sitting 759 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 1: at eleven in the draft and obviously needing O line 760 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: help for Donald but also needing weapons for him. With 761 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: all signs leading to Robby Anderson leaving, we think I 762 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: don't know, he hasn't sign anywhere. Uh, probably take the 763 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: last of the four tackles from what I'm seeing in mocks, 764 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 1: or taking a dynamic receiver like CD Jerry Judy or yeah, 765 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,879 Speaker 1: Jared Judy. Well, they've added I think last I saw 766 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: like four offensive lineman over the last five or six days. Now, 767 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 1: it's not like they added Anthony muonio so or Larry Allen, 768 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 1: but they just added much improvement from the arguably but them. 769 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 1: The Cardinals had the worst offensive line in the league. 770 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: I also think that you should be able to function 771 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 1: in that scheme. I mean, the forty Niners did it 772 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: with backup tackles from the a F running the zone stuff. 773 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: So Adam Gates, who has ran the zone own scheme before, 774 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 1: can should be able to function. Or a top offensive 775 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: mind whatever offense he wants to implement, should be able 776 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: to get around it a little bit with not all 777 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: pro offensive lineman, but has a young quarterback you'd like 778 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,840 Speaker 1: to protect him. I think there's a balance. If you 779 00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 1: have the tackle and the receiver on the same level, 780 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 1: then take the tackle. But if there are two or 781 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: three tackles off the board, and for whatever your ranking is, 782 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: you have Ceedee Lamb or Jerry Judy or whatever wide 783 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: receiver above those guys, I think you have to take 784 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: the best player available because Sam Donald needs someone dynamic 785 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: to throw the football too. And right now, assuming Robby 786 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,919 Speaker 1: Anderson leaves, which you know he has not gone yet, 787 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 1: his market, I don't think looks maybe as good as 788 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: he thought. Uh yeah. I think if one of the 789 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 1: top three tackles last to yet, you gotta take them. 790 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,720 Speaker 1: And if it's like the fourth tackle and you're balancing 791 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: that with the wide receiver, I probably take the wide receiver. 792 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: Quick question, Can the Vikings win the Super Bowl with 793 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins? Will you have the Vikings package Diggs? This 794 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: is a question probably before free agency and some other 795 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: players get a top pick in the next year's draft 796 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: and tank for a quarterback, maybe Lawrence or Fields. I'm 797 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,760 Speaker 1: a huge Viking fan, but I've seen this movie before, 798 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: and we're always think we fall short. I think our 799 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,800 Speaker 1: best hope is landing in generational quarterback like Mahomes or 800 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: Watson because luck has seems always against us in the 801 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: biggest moments. Well, simply put, I don't think her Cousins 802 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: is good enough to win a Super Bowl. If Kirk 803 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 1: Cousins were to win a Super Bowl, I think he 804 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: would need the setup of an absolutely elite team surrounding him, 805 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: an elite offensive line, and that you guys have the 806 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 1: running backs. Diggs is gone now, so your weapons aren't 807 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 1: quite as good in your defense. Everysing Griffin's gone, Xavier Rhodes, 808 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 1: who hasn't been good, but he's gone, it's just not 809 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: gonna be as good. So yeah, I just don't think 810 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 1: you're good enough to win a Super Bowl now. Your 811 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: coach is good enough and your your roster is still 812 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: good if you should be a playoff team. But Kirk 813 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:07,879 Speaker 1: Cousins in in our lifetime, it's not gonna win Super Bowl. 814 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 1: He's just He's probably best chance was two years ago 815 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 1: but their offense was all off. Then this year when 816 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: their offense was on, then they even won a playoff game. 817 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: I was at the Niner game. They just they can't 818 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 1: protect him. It's impossible to turn your offensive line around 819 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 1: that fast when your quarterback can't really move. He's not 820 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: a very good athlete. He's too robotic. If the plays there, 821 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: he can beat you. But that's not the way the 822 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 1: NFL works. You gotta be able to freelance a little bit, 823 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: and he just he can't. And I don't even just bean. 824 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: Freelance with your body, freelance with your mind, like Tom 825 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,240 Speaker 1: Brady or Peyton Manning can't run around their mind operates 826 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: at warp speed. It's like the best Mac computer, the 827 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins operation Brain operates just like a basic computer 828 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,479 Speaker 1: from two thousand four. He's just he's just not good enough. 829 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 1: First time, long time. We've all heard your story to 830 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: how you got here today. But what's your aspiration for 831 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: the future? Is the goal old to get your own 832 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 1: show on a panel FS one is getting back in 833 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,280 Speaker 1: the league college radio where you leave the Bay, Sydney, Australia. 834 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: You know, a little bit like the coronavirus. I just 835 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: take it day by day. I think the world has 836 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,360 Speaker 1: never changed faster. You know. If this was like I 837 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 1: want to host a national radio show, No, I mean 838 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: I I want to do. I want to be in 839 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 1: the cutting edge of technology. I like owning my own stuff. 840 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 1: I'd like to have a big YouTube page which I 841 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: owned the revenue. I like having this podcast with Colin. 842 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: I like having freedoms. One thing I figured out about 843 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 1: myself is I do best when I answer to myself, 844 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,319 Speaker 1: and it puts a lot of pressure on myself to 845 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 1: be creative and keep finding ways to do things. But 846 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: I think I was destined to kind of be have 847 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: a little entrepreneurial side to me, uh, and a hustle 848 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 1: side to me that you know. I don't know if 849 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 1: I'm meant to work for a big company. Now. Would 850 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,320 Speaker 1: I host a show for Fox Sports one, of course? 851 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,839 Speaker 1: But could I host an internet show for him? Could I? 852 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean the world there there are 853 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 1: dudes on YouTube making millions of dollars the broadcasts from home. 854 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: So I just think the technology and the world has 855 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 1: never been kind of more different than it is now 856 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 1: and ever changing. It changes more and more every six months, 857 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: let alone every year or two cord cutting, I don't know. 858 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm open to anything and everything. I mean, I have 859 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:29,760 Speaker 1: aspirations to run other businesses, uh that aren't sports related. 860 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: Now we'll see how that takes off. Obviously, this is 861 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,839 Speaker 1: my passion and I love doing it, and I don't 862 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: plan on changing anytime soon. I mean, I own a place. 863 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: If I didn't own a place in the Bay Area, 864 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: i'd probably move, but I own a place here. My 865 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 1: mom's a little older. She lives about an hour away 866 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 1: from me, I'm I'm a northern California guy. I mean, 867 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: I don't love the taxes, but these are my people 868 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 1: and this is this is my culture. Now I'm never 869 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,839 Speaker 1: against it. You know, if if business goes really well, 870 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 1: could I've ever moved Jupiter, Florida or Arizona? For sure? 871 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: I'm I'm open minded. I'm never stuck or beholden to 872 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,399 Speaker 1: one place. But I am a California guy probably first 873 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 1: and foremost. I feel most comfortable here, but sometimes you 874 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: gotta be comfortable with being uncomfortable. So I'm always open 875 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: to things. I'm always open to things. Business in the 876 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: world's going pretty well beside this crazy Corona, so I 877 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, I'm just trying to keep adapting. That's my 878 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 1: number one People like what do you want to do? 879 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,720 Speaker 1: You know, I think that question was easier to answer 880 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,240 Speaker 1: twenty years ago. I think it's really hard to answer. 881 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 1: Like all the biggest companies in the world like barely 882 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 1: existed fifteen years ago. I mean, if I would have 883 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 1: told you in two thousand Facebook, You'll be like, what, Like, yeah, 884 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be like fifth ridge guy in 885 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,319 Speaker 1: the world. Oh yeah, Jeff Bezos, that bald guy that 886 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: sells books. He's gonna run the world. Google, you know, 887 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,760 Speaker 1: be the most important website ever. Website. What are websites? 888 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. This thing called the Internet. That's how 889 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:57,160 Speaker 1: the world works. So I I actually think, and I 890 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: tell people this all the time. We've only grass the 891 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: surface with technology. The Internet has really been going strong, 892 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 1: probably since what two thousand one, two thousand two, Like 893 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: we're it was pretty mainstream by about two thousand five, 894 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 1: everyone was using it in some form or fashion. So 895 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:20,240 Speaker 1: really fifteen years later, it's it's the world. Our world 896 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 1: revolves around kind of the internet, whether you run like 897 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 1: you know, a local landscaping business, if you're not, you know, 898 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: advertising or involved on Facebook and Instagram or or you 899 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: know whatever the websites are too. I'm trying to think 900 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 1: of the one website where you can look up random stuff. 901 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 1: I never used it. I was gonna say eBay, but 902 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: it's not eBay. Uh it's I was gonna say cliff notes, 903 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,360 Speaker 1: but I can't even think of it. But the reality 904 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 1: is is like everything is based on here, and this 905 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: is where I feel. I I thrive on the Internet, 906 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 1: so I I feel pretty good about whatever happens. Quarantine 907 00:46:56,600 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: for fourteen days with three people, who are you picking? Uh? Well, 908 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: I would go one. I would pick a chef, so 909 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: I'd go whoever, like a great chef is you know, 910 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna pick it like Emerald Legassi, but that's 911 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:13,760 Speaker 1: just the famous one that comes to my Rachel Ray. Whoever, 912 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: I would pick a sweet chef who would just make 913 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 1: me food. I would pick again, assuming that you know 914 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: she'd like me and we could date and kind of 915 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: hang like I'm a sucker for Cindy Crawford. I know 916 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: she's old, but it's hard to get much better now. 917 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: You can go j Low or whatever, but they're in relationships. Again, 918 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: it would have to be could could I have a 919 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 1: little short term relationship with whoever I pick? And then 920 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,919 Speaker 1: I'd probably also want it either be twofold. I'd either 921 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 1: want someone to keep me entertained, like a storyteller, or 922 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 1: maybe like a personal trainer to get me in good shape. 923 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: So it would be it would be just some babe. 924 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 1: It would be a chef for sure, I'd be eating 925 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 1: like a king. Maybe I say, screw the personal trainer, 926 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,360 Speaker 1: just get fat for those fourteen days. So pick an entertainer. 927 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 1: I don't know who they entertainer would be out to 928 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,799 Speaker 1: think maybe maybe a musician, just someone to play me 929 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: some tunes, you know, someone with a lot of range, 930 00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: like a Lady Gaga. They could play me upbeat stuff. 931 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 1: They could play me some you know, some love making music. 932 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 1: But could also like if we wanted to throw a 933 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: little three person party, we could. We could crack some 934 00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 1: some cocktails and she could jam usher you know, timber Lake, 935 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: someone like that. Just I just snapped my fingers and 936 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:35,280 Speaker 1: they just start jamming. Uh. What do the best teams 937 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 1: do differently to make the most of the twelve minutes 938 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: during halftime? Some coaches are known to be good at 939 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,399 Speaker 1: halftime adjustments. But isn't the coaching staff talking constantly over 940 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 1: the headsets throughout the game and talking directly with players 941 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:49,319 Speaker 1: on the sideline. That's a hell of a question. When 942 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:51,360 Speaker 1: I was in the NFL, I was never in the 943 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: the locker room at halftime. When I was at Fresno State, 944 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 1: I was, And I think most locker rooms are relatively similar. 945 00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,760 Speaker 1: You split up with offensive defense, you your coaching staff 946 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 1: kind of gets together because you have a lot of 947 00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 1: coaches that are in the box, and then they get 948 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 1: with the head coach and whoever's on the sideline, and 949 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: then the offensive defense kind of splits up. They kind 950 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 1: of jot down a couple of notes, and then the 951 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: position coach you usually you know, talk with their guys 952 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 1: or maybe they get together as a unit. I think 953 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 1: the best staffs can just identify sometimes we you know, 954 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,720 Speaker 1: try we're not reinventing the wheel here. If for whatever reason, 955 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: the defense is getting pressure up the middle, then start scrambling, 956 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,439 Speaker 1: you know, start getting your quarterback on the move. If 957 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: you're if the team is getting edge pressure, start chipping. 958 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,800 Speaker 1: If you're one wide receiver can't get away from a 959 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 1: certain corner, run some routes for another guy. Like I 960 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 1: think sometimes that we think like there are these crazy 961 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 1: halftime adjustments. My overall take is, I I think the 962 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,799 Speaker 1: best coaching staffs just realize what that team is doing. 963 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 1: You you come into a game with a game plan, 964 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,279 Speaker 1: meaning we think this is gonna work against that, and 965 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 1: that is gonna work against this. And then you have 966 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:09,760 Speaker 1: a halftime. Let's just assume a score is fifteen, you know, fifteen. 967 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 1: Let's just say it's fourteen to ten and you're losing. Well, 968 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 1: you go, well, they've they hit these plays if we 969 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,839 Speaker 1: take that away and we can't run these plays because 970 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: they're taking this away, and then you ad just off that. 971 00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 1: It's the I think hard headed coaches that go, we're 972 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna do this, and it's gonna work because 973 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 1: we game plan for it all week long. A game 974 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 1: plan is essentially think about like a war movie or 975 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 1: just war in general over the history of time. It's 976 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: different now because the air strikes and stuff, but like 977 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 1: when you had Crown troops, you come in a certain angle. Well, 978 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 1: if things don't work, you probably need to hang a 979 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 1: left or hang a right and attack them from a 980 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:54,280 Speaker 1: different angle. And you don't know until your initial attack. 981 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: Well that's a football first half. Your initial attack, you 982 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 1: know it's either working or not working. And if if 983 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,359 Speaker 1: you're hardheaded enough to think, well we just gotta keep 984 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,200 Speaker 1: rammed at home that way, you'll probably lose the war. 985 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 1: It's why I think so many football coaches and football 986 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 1: players and football books and football movies parallel with you know, 987 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 1: they love Navy seals, they love talking and having generals 988 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:17,960 Speaker 1: talk to the team, because there are a lot of similarities. 989 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 1: It's just basic wealth that's not working. Do this, and 990 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 1: I think some coaches in general can be really hardheaded 991 00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 1: with that. I discovered your podcast and I'm enjoying the 992 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 1: hell out of it. Well, I appreciate it. My question is, 993 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,840 Speaker 1: with the NFL going to a seventeenth game, would it 994 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: have made sense for the player to ask for additional 995 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:40,320 Speaker 1: bye week in return for the seventeenth game? Yeah? I 996 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,760 Speaker 1: mean I would imagine they did ask for it. Um, 997 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,440 Speaker 1: maybe there are rules moving forward that it will be 998 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 1: your your Thursday game will be off of bye and 999 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: then you get that extra by after the Thursday game. 1000 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 1: I haven't read enough about the seventeenth game to know that. Again, 1001 00:51:58,200 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 1: if you've listened to the show for a while, you 1002 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:03,799 Speaker 1: know I had. I had tough thoughts and just I 1003 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 1: struggled to wrap my head around of some of the 1004 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: stuff they were fighting because I thought they should have 1005 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,560 Speaker 1: fought for the money, not necessarily that stuff were. Bye 1006 00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: weeks to me are more important than like no pads 1007 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,320 Speaker 1: during training camp, and I think too often they didn't 1008 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:21,240 Speaker 1: fight for the right stuff. Hey, John, I'm a former 1009 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 1: pro rugby player now coach from Australia. I love the NFL, 1010 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: but I noticed their tackle technique couldn't be tweaked tackling 1011 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,439 Speaker 1: a guy like Derrick Henry. Is it because you guys 1012 00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 1: are trying to stop every inch or playing at the 1013 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:39,799 Speaker 1: ball rather than focus on getting the guy down. Uh, 1014 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 1: that's a good question. I think sometimes in rugby, right, 1015 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 1: you just tackle to try to get the guy down. 1016 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 1: In football, like my roommates in college played rugby at 1017 00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:55,359 Speaker 1: cal Poly, you're not really getting a first down, right. 1018 00:52:55,719 --> 00:53:01,160 Speaker 1: We're in football every ten yards keep a drive alive. 1019 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 1: So when I'm coming at you and it's third and two, 1020 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,719 Speaker 1: jumping on your back if I'm at your side or 1021 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: coming at you forward just because I know I might 1022 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 1: not might be able to get you down doesn't necessarily 1023 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: behoove my team. It's why the most celebrated plays in 1024 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: football on defense, beside turnovers, our goal line stands and 1025 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,919 Speaker 1: fourth down stops because you get the ball back, where 1026 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,399 Speaker 1: in rugby you can always just keep moving the ball 1027 00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 1: down unless I'm able to get you to the ground, 1028 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 1: stop it and then stop. What's it called the ruck? 1029 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 1: Is that what it's called when you guys all get 1030 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 1: on the ground. So I think the key is in football, 1031 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 1: every inch, like every yard is a really big deal, 1032 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 1: where in rugby It's really about more getting the ball back. 1033 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,399 Speaker 1: Whether you get ten yards or twenty yards, as long 1034 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,960 Speaker 1: as I stop you from scoring, that's okay. Well, really 1035 00:53:56,080 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 1: every football drive is broken down for every you know, 1036 00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 1: first through fourth down. Can I stop you on a 1037 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: series of downs, right, because every time you get a 1038 00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:11,880 Speaker 1: first down, we kind of stopped back start back at square. 1039 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 1: One's why if I'm a defender, I want to drive 1040 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 1: you back. I think that's a huge part of the 1041 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:20,080 Speaker 1: lifting in football. When it comes to defense, everything's about power, 1042 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 1: everything's about explosion. It's about when I hit you and 1043 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,839 Speaker 1: you hit me, you go backwards. That's why running backs 1044 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 1: are taught to be you know, squat Squatting is a 1045 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 1: big deal. So when I meet you at whatever yard 1046 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 1: line and I have to get an extra half yard 1047 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: and you're trying to stop me from that, someone's gonna win. 1048 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 1: We're in rugby. I don't know if that factors in 1049 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:45,400 Speaker 1: as much. Again, I haven't really thought that much about it. 1050 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:49,320 Speaker 1: Just off the top of my head, I think that's 1051 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,080 Speaker 1: what are you just talking? Someone send me a video 1052 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 1: of their dog. I said on my other podcast, it's 1053 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,840 Speaker 1: d of crazy how dogs can just eat drink gutter water, 1054 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,239 Speaker 1: like you and I would drink a Gatorade after a 1055 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,000 Speaker 1: run and they're just unfazed. It's like they feel so 1056 00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: great about it. We have gutter water. I mean we 1057 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 1: would get food poisoning for a week. Do players sign 1058 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 1: contracts knowing that they're going to play the final year 1059 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 1: or two of it? Why agents are still okay with 1060 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:22,959 Speaker 1: these structures. I'm a Niners fan, I'm so I'm glad 1061 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 1: to work the system, but I expected some changes in 1062 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 1: the end of in the c b A because in football, 1063 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: unlike the other sports, like if you get a hundred 1064 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: million dollar contract, it's all guaranteed, so you're getting a 1065 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 1: hundred million, you're getting twenty million over five years or whatever. 1066 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,480 Speaker 1: In football, the number one thing these guys fight for 1067 00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 1: is the bonus money and the guaranteed money. So if 1068 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:45,359 Speaker 1: I signed you to a five year hundred million dollar 1069 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:48,760 Speaker 1: contract like a Marii Cooper and you get sixty million 1070 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:52,480 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed, the football player gets that sixty million dollars 1071 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,400 Speaker 1: within a year. That's why you can or whatever. The 1072 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: if the signing bonuses forty he gets a large chunk 1073 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 1: of that. He might get thirty million dollars the day 1074 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,400 Speaker 1: he signs the contract. That's not how it works in 1075 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 1: basketball or baseball. So the structure of it is just 1076 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,880 Speaker 1: a little complicated. I probably should have someone on some 1077 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:13,280 Speaker 1: time to talk about it, but because I'm a little confused. 1078 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 1: But they get much more upfront money in the NFL 1079 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: than the other sports. It's just the guaranteed money because 1080 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 1: of the physicality and injuries of the sport. The realities 1081 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,520 Speaker 1: is never gonna change. It is what it is. It 1082 00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 1: will always be complicated. Like that big New England Patriot fan. 1083 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:33,879 Speaker 1: Now that Brady has gone and New England hasn't signed 1084 00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 1: any big free agents beside resigning some vets. Are the 1085 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:39,399 Speaker 1: Patriots taking a knee and free agency? Do you think 1086 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 1: they unload anyone for draft picks, try to get younger 1087 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: or ride this year with Stidham, saw a report that 1088 00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 1: scouts are high on Stidham thoughts, well, they didn't have 1089 00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,960 Speaker 1: much cap room. They kept the guard on a franchise tag. 1090 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:51,879 Speaker 1: Their defense is still gonna be one of the best 1091 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,399 Speaker 1: in the league. If their offense is just average, why 1092 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,239 Speaker 1: couldn't they win eight or nine games? I mean they 1093 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: won twelve this year with a bad offense. Why couldn't 1094 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: just be a deep, fensive havy. Why couldn't they just 1095 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,879 Speaker 1: be the Bills and win nine or ten games this year? 1096 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, I think they always kind of take a 1097 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 1: knee on free agency, at least the first wave that 1098 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:12,279 Speaker 1: they'll sign cheaper players that they never beside Gilmore. Really 1099 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,759 Speaker 1: the last decade, when did they ever break the bank 1100 00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:17,400 Speaker 1: for a player? And Bill love Gilmore and it worked out. 1101 00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 1: I mean, he was Defensive Player of the Year. But 1102 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 1: usually they wait to get a guy for you know, 1103 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 1: when every team signing a guy for seven eight million, 1104 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 1: they want to get that same player a week later 1105 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 1: for three and a half. And that's really been their 1106 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 1: point of difference. Now it gets a little tougher if 1107 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: your quarterback is not the goat, and I think that's 1108 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 1: kind of the I don't know the new the new 1109 00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 1: England Patriots science experiment we're about to undertake. Can they 1110 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 1: keep operating like that? Uh? The one thing we know 1111 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 1: about Bill is he's smart and he'll adapt. You know, 1112 00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 1: he's he ain't into losing. He's been kicking the ship 1113 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: out everyone for twenty years, so I don't think he'll 1114 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 1: want to go six and ten. But I don't expect 1115 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 1: him to go six and ten. They're they're too too 1116 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 1: talented of a team. Uh. I heard you mentioned the 1117 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:07,320 Speaker 1: other day that the herd rumblings that Miami wanted. Oh 1118 00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 1: I heard Colin mentioned the other day that he's heard 1119 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 1: rumblings that Miami wanted to send a bunch of draft 1120 00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: picks to Since so they can take Burrow. What are 1121 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that and how if it all might 1122 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 1: shake up the next handful of picks. Does since with 1123 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,400 Speaker 1: the number five pick from Miami still go to quarterback? 1124 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 1: Might they take Herbert over toa as Obama fan, I 1125 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 1: want to see TWA end up in the best position, 1126 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 1: so I would love to see the Chargers find a 1127 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 1: way to get him. However it all plays out, I 1128 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 1: see there being some trades amongst the first five picks. 1129 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 1: Completely agree. I think Cincinnati, if they love Joe Burrows, 1130 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,240 Speaker 1: should just take Joe Burrow. Now, if Miami goes, I'll 1131 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 1: give you five, I'll give you a. I think they 1132 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:45,680 Speaker 1: have picked eighteen, and they have the Texans pick, which 1133 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:49,240 Speaker 1: is in the twenties. I don't know twenty six. I 1134 00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:51,640 Speaker 1: have looked at the exact order. Would I take all 1135 00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 1: three of those picks for pick five. If I was 1136 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: on the fence about Herbert or I mean Burrow and 1137 00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:01,320 Speaker 1: t I'd think about it. Uh uh well, Cincinnati their 1138 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 1: owners too old school. I I doubt it. I think 1139 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:07,360 Speaker 1: two ends up on the Dolphins are the charters, because 1140 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 1: if you're the Lions or the Giants and you're gonna 1141 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,240 Speaker 1: trade back, you're not trading back that far. You you 1142 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 1: still want to get one of the premium players in 1143 00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: the draft. So I think that those two teams are 1144 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 1: the best equipped being that close that they could trade 1145 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:22,920 Speaker 1: a second round pick, or even if they had to 1146 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,800 Speaker 1: get super aggressive, they could always trade next year's one. 1147 00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:30,520 Speaker 1: Miami has multiple two's, three ones and then two ones 1148 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 1: next year, so that they're in really really good position 1149 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 1: to be aggressive this year or next year. Uh to uh. 1150 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 1: As of recording this, posted a video of him working 1151 00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: out today. He actually looked pretty good. He looked healthy 1152 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 1: to me. I'm not you know, I don't claim to 1153 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 1: be Bill Walsh here, but I mean I know what 1154 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 1: a seven step drop looks like, and just kind of 1155 00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 1: moving around the pocket and he was moving around some 1156 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 1: cones like. He looked like healthy to us. So when 1157 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 1: the dust settles I'd expect all three quarterbacks in some 1158 00:59:57,240 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 1: way with trades to go in the top five. Uh. 1159 01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: And Cincinnati, I just I can't see them trading a pick. 1160 01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 1: They're just too old school, too stubborn, not really their style. 1161 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 1: I appreciate everyone listening during quarantine. If you have anything, 1162 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,640 Speaker 1: shoot me d MS time. I got time. I'm around, 1163 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 1: so uh holler at me. Uh.
